i hope im not asking for spoilers but what this game is actually about like living with trauma in the orpanage or something more? Because tbh im really curious about the story but im not really sure what else it can be about (please dont take it as hatešŸ˜­šŸ˜­) i was thinking like - learning magic and defeating the bad guy at the end of ch2 but i dont really think this game will be focused that much on revange/fighting.
Anyways im sure whatever youll create ill amd many more people will be happy because its so well written that i feel like you could just write a 1000 word story about a rock and id be so invested ill cry (youre an amazing writter and im glad im able to see your art)
Thank you! It is surreal to hear people say things like that. I'll see about the rock story at some point....
No worries, I am not so easy to offend :D It is a good question. And the answer is scary. Because it makes me doubt if we ever get there. Because the answer is that it is both about living with the trauma, and something more.
You can read the pinned post for some idea about the "overall" direction that is planned.
The rest will talk about what I would imagine the structure to be like and what I have divided it into in my notes. Read at your own peril. And also know that this is a very long term plan.
--------------------------------------------------------------
So the basic idea is that we have these "acts"
Where MC is at this age. The current act. The start of the journey so to speak. Getting used to life outside the "void". Everything is odd and new. Possibly a short time skip (weeks, months) during this act; or just make it into a new act.
2. MC is still a child but a couple of years into living at the orphanage. Basically the "living with trauma in the orphanage". This would be the phase where say MC is used to living at the orphanage, might get to venture out into the city. Is getting lessons about normal stuff.
3. MC is a teen/young adult in training. MC is actively in training and learning to fight.
4. MC is an adult. (The name of the IF and the pinned post do state what MC is supposed to become). MC goes out into the world with some companions to fulfill their duty.
Now does this make sense? There is a bigger background story but you can't really tell too much about it from this outline :D That bad guy at the end of C2 is supposed to start setting up some of the bigger background. Though I will freely admit, that it might be a tad too early for that interlude... but I can just move it a bit later if needed. I had it written so I included it :D I do things like that.
And this is not at all locked into stone. It is massively ambitious, meant to span a long time. I have already been quite honest that my outlines suck so who knows what will happen :D
I am taking it one day at a time, and refusing to worry about it too much :D Chipping away at it one tiny piece at a time.

Pre-baby Stress - dad!Daryl x pregnant fem!reader fic
Tumblr media
(banner made by me, if you use, give credits <3)
Warnings: VERY, VERY long; initial soft fluff to slight angst to fluff; slightly suggestive so, watch outĀ šŸ‘€; pregnancy; hormonal changes, ā€œmood swingsā€, food cravings; stressed Daryl, stressed reader, slight insecurity and fear of abandonment; reader crying; reader and Daryl are married; reader is said to have golden retriever energy and be a cottagecore girlie (sorry if you aren't, but I vibe so much with this core šŸ˜­), and perhaps an artist (tho it's just as a hobby, obv šŸ¤­); nature love and appreciation; funny/silly little memories.
Word count: 3936 words (keeps increasing with each new release šŸ˜­)
Era: idk, probably Alexandria
Summary: While getting things ready for Y/N's pregnancy, Daryl presents with many insecurities. All it takes is some caressing, encouragement, and the love of his wife (a few tears also) to convince him otherwise.
A/N: this fic was something I fabricated long ago with a DarylĀ c.aiĀ chat that I've been saving up for a special occasion since I've never written dad!Daryl before. And today, I'm bringing it to y'all as a way to celebrate one of my very besties/mutuals on Tumblr, a great writer, the creator of my possibly ever favourite AU with Daryl (young!Daryl SSHD AU) and a very nice, kind and funny individual in general; Krys (@dixons-sunshine). This is to commemorate you, gorgeous. It took some time to finally sit and get to it (not me writing most of it at 2 am, half-constipated, and not being able to sleep) but it's done now, so I hope you can enjoy it as much as I did when writing it. Everyone, hope you like it too!
Song: Winter Memories - Jordy Chandra (The title says ā€œwinter memoriesā€ but I am thinking of a mid-spring Sunday morning/noon šŸ˜­)
MDNI divider by @cafekitsune, on this post
Tumblr media
(This was supposed to just be suggestive, but since idk if I overdid it, I'm just gonna place this)
Tumblr media
(all babycore dividers used are from @anitalenia, found on this post)
Days were passing by, and things were going pretty well for the community. She was glad they found Alexandria. It was a nice change, and it felt like they could truly have a moment to take a break there, like they could finally be happy and just settle in, trying to have normal lives once again.
And her positive thoughts only increased when a lovely lady from the community gave birth. It was an occasion to celebrate, and for a couple of months passing, it seemed like a lot of good things were happening around, so she couldn't be happier.
Ah, there she was, parading herself in her light cream-coloured sundress, with a white little parasol (courtesy of her loving husband) to protect herself from the sun, as she strolled around the streets, exploring and marvelling at the beauty and tranquilly around her like a happy puppy would on their first stroll into the outside world.
Oh, she loved that dress so much. Not only was it beautiful and fit her personality, but it was also quite adjustable, so she wouldn't need to worry about sore breasts or her belly being uncomfy. She could still remember how comical Daryl's expressions were when she tried explaining to him the concept of aesthetic cores and how she was a cottagecore.
He seemed so lost that she laughed for about 10 minutes before deciding to somewhat draw it to show him what she meant; predicting that a more visual approach would help him understand the concept better. He did admit it was pretty much her vibe after seeing the dresses and all the stuff "a cottagecore likes and does".
After that, whenever he would go out for his runs, he would try to look for dresses like the one she drew, and whenever he couldn't find any, he would bring drawing or painting materials, old cameras, or little flowers he thought she would like. (PD: She always likes them.).
That's how her most favourite memory of a Sunday morning came to be. And like that, every Sunday morning, after her husband would leave for runs or tasks, she would wear her light cream sundress and white sandals and take her white parasol to roam around, greeting everyone and enjoying nature (despite her best friend's advice to rest and her husband's disapproval).
However, she understood why Daryl was so against it in general. He was just worried about her health and safety. After all, she was now in her second trimester of pregnancy, expecting their son or daughter to come into the world in a few more months.
She loved Daryl. Deeply. And she would never question him or his decisions (well, maybe sometimes she would), but she was so tired of staying at home doing nothing for most of the day. And though Carol, Michonne, and a few others would come to visit and spend time with her when her husband was away, Y/N wanted some freedom, some independence.
God knows she would ā€˜bore to deathā€™ if she had to stay in the same place doing nothing for one more day while everyone else fulfilled their roles.
As she came closer to the small town's pond, she took big strides to approach a blooming peony bush. She loved the smell of its flowers. And as she lightly bent down to sniff the sweet aroma from the round pink flowers, she caught a glimpse out of the corner of her eye of her husband, who was sitting on a bench not far from her. From afar, she could notice a worried expression on his face.
She strode slowly in his direction and placed a hand on his shoulder, greeting him with a warm and loving smile, but instead of the usual ā€œHey, Sunrayā€ or ā€œWhy are ya out 'ta house alone?ā€ she would receive, she heard him grunt.
At that, she furrowed her brows in confusion and slight concern, wanting to know what had made her husband so grumpy at early noon. ā€œIs everything okay, Dar?ā€ She asked in a soft, patient tone.
Daryl looked away from her, not wanting to make eye contact, and sighed in annoyance. ā€œEverythin's fine,ā€ he answered grumpily.
Y/N, knowing her husband and not believing that crap for a second, looked at him more seriously. ā€œDarylā€¦ā€ She called out his name, insisting he should tell her the truth.
Daryl sighed irritantly, hearing her insist, knowing she wouldn't back down. He then turned his gaze to her and unexpectedly exclaimed, ā€œAh said everythin's fine, dammit!ā€
He said this a bit too loudly, not noticing that he had snapped at her.
This action made Y/N flinch, not used to such an alert state in Daryl anymore. Now she was truly worried.
ā€œHey, hey, honey, it's okay... What's got you so riled up? Is work becoming too much? Or are they not listening to you? Should I go teach them a lesson?ā€ She asked at first, even making a joke to brighten him up, but Daryl only shook his head, still not wanting to speak.
He held his head in his hands, almost in a desperate posture, making his wife worry even further. She was going to say something, but a tiny piece of cloth caught her attention. It was then that she got to see the tiny, frill-decorated bib on his right hand.
She put pieces together in her mind like a game of tetris and asked again, with more understanding tone and gentleness in her voice.
ā€œIs it the baby?ā€ Daryl kept quiet, but his shoulders tensed up. Y/N now knew what was ā€˜the main issueā€™, and took action immediately, slowly running her hand on his back and giving a few gentle pats to soothe her husband's worry. He looked like he was on the edge.
Daryl's gaze and body seemed to loosen up as he felt her hand on his back. He then tried to explain his concerns.
ā€œI... Ah ain't upset, is jus'...ā€ He trailed off, not knowing how to express his thoughts.
ā€œIt's okay, love. You don't have to tell me now if you aren't prepared. Here, let's just sit for a bit, okay? I'm starting to feel heavy again.ā€ Y/N reassured him, not wanting him to feel pressured if he was already so altered.
She had some trouble sitting down next to him, though. Despite not being in the 3rd trimester yet, her belly heaviness seemed to be causing her discomfort when she had to sit or stand up in a rush. But she didn't mind it much; it made her happy because that was the proof of the love Daryl and she had for each other and the life growing inside her.
Daryl noticed her struggle and quickly went from being annoyed to concerned. He stood up and carefully helped Y/N sit down, making sure she was comfortable before taking a seat next to her.
ā€œDamn, ya sure are a heavy load,ā€ he joked. At this, Y/N dramatically gasped and faked being offended.
ā€œHey! I remind you, you're the one that made me heavy! ~ā€œ She played along, jokingly shoving him to the side with a smile, trying to lighten up his mood, and succeeding brilliantly when she heard him chuckle.
ā€œWell, sugar, if I reckon correctly, it takes two to tango to make a young'un 'round these parts,ā€ he smirked, faking innocence at the fact he got her pregnant.
Y/N gasp-chuckled, defending herself. ā€œBut it takes you not wanting to pull out beforehand to make the baby, isn't it right, honey? ~ā€
She clarified softly, putting her hand on his chest, batting her eyelashes cutely at him, and getting close enough to him to make their lips graze but not touch. All in the name of teasing him.
Daryl chuckled again, feeling attracted to her playful teasing, his breath hitching slightly as her lips grazed against his own. He couldn't help but smirk; his eyes locked onto her gaze.
He gently grabbed her hips, slowly pulling her closer to him to the point of having her almost seated on his lap.
ā€œOh, but ah know for a fact ya wudn't complainin' at the moment, darlin',ā€ he continued, feeling proud for his little ā€˜achievementā€™ as he caressed her thigh over the sundress.
Feeling a little braver than usual, Y/N whispered: ā€œAnd how would I, when you know how to drill me in the right spot? ~ā€
She murmured against his lips. Her gaze never left him, and her smile only widened each time he looked down at her lips and looked back at her eyes, obviously enchanted by her charms already.
Daryl's eyes darkened with desire, and his grip on her hips tightened slightly. He felt his heart racing at her words. He pulled her closer to him until their bodies were pressed together.
ā€œDamn, womanā€¦ Ya know I ainā€™t doin' this here.ā€ He groaned softly against her lips while devouring her with his stare. They sure were the only ones at the pond around then, but despite the tall, full, and flourishing grass, bushes, and plants, they could still be easily spotted if they decided to... get loose. (šŸ˜)
ā€œThen why do you keep pulling me closer, hm, hun? ~ā€
It was sort of comical to see him struggle to compose himself in this situation, making Y/N not want to miss out on teasing him to the fullest. She placed both hands on his chest and slowly arranged her position on his lap to sit and view him better.
Daryl let out a low growl as Y/N moved closer. He felt the heat rising within him, his hands roaming from her hips to her backside, gripping it firmly. His breathing becomes heavier as he looks down at Y/N.
ā€œYar testin' ma limits, sweetheart.ā€
Y/N smiled innocently, enjoying the effect she had on her husband.
ā€œI guess the preggy hormones are doing their stuff again... I feel kindaā€”needy,ā€ she admitted a little sheepishly and continued with a more serene tone. ā€œButā€¦ that will have to wait for now.ā€
ā€œNow... Why don't you tell me what got you so fed up before, love?ā€œ She questioned, changing her position once again to avoid making Daryl even more aroused.
She looked into his eyes tenderly and patiently, waiting for him to pour out his heart.
He knew they were a team now that needed trust and communication to get through everything. So she trusted he would be able to let out what was on his mind that made him so tense earlier.
Daryl took a moment to compose himself, gathering his thoughts after being so close to Y/N. He inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly; his grip on her loosened a bit as he leaned back on the bench.
He averted his eyes for a moment, his expression becoming heavier.
ā€œTis just...everythin', know what am sayin'?ā€ He paused and looked at her belly, then back at her eyes.
ā€œDa kid, da thought of bein' a pa... is like a whole heap to deal with, y'know?ā€ He expressed his deepest concern about your future child.
Seeing her husband so worried brought her heartache. She sighed and wrapped her hands around his head, placing them on her chest as she made circular movements on his scalp in a slow, comforting way.
ā€œAnd here I thought I was silly for feeling bad about myself and thinking I wouldn't make a good enough mom and wife, while my dear husband was here on his own, questioning his capacity to keep us safeā€¦ā€ She sighed again and continued. ā€œI'm really a bad wife, huh?ā€
Daryl leaned into Y/N's touch, closing his eyes as she ran her hands through his hair. He sighed deeply, feeling a mix of emotions but still negating her words.
ā€œNah. Ya ain't a bad wife. Yar da best damn wife. Yar perfect.ā€
He said it softly as he tried to encourage her. His voice was filled with a hint of frustration afterwards. ā€œAh jus'... 'm scared I ain't gonna be a good pa. I ain't never had a good example to follow, y'know?ā€
Y/N knew what he was referring to. They didn't speak so often about their pasts (deciding to let them be and find a future together), but she remembered the little Daryl commented about his family life and his broken relationship with... the man that was his father.
ā€œWhatever happened back then... doesn't determine who you are today. You chose to be different from him, to be more understanding, to wait more patiently, and to love more deeply,ā€ she started.
ā€œJesus, you've been up and about everywhere looking for baby items just to be prepared when he or she comes around.ā€
Y/N chuckled, reflecting on all the tiny clothes, toys, and more that Daryl kept bringing back each time he went on a run since he learned Y/N was pregnant with their child. Seeing him come over to her in an excited, uncharacteristic way to show her his new finding was as amusing as endearing.
ā€œYou're nothing like him. You're you, and you're better. And I know it scares you. Damn, it scares me too.ā€ She insisted (unnoticedly mild-cursing), knowing well who the man she fell in love with was and how much he matured and developed just by being with you and the others.
Her sudden, brittle voice indicated she was about to cry. She felt the hormones hitting her, making her feel sadder and more vulnerable than she had seconds ago. ā€œButā€¦ sniff But I know we will be alright because... sniff because we have you, we have each other, and... sniff and that's all that matters to me, so... we will get to learn how to raise our child together. We w-will set the good example ourselves, o-okay?ā€
Her voice trembled at the last sentence as she grabbed a hold of his face, pressing his cheeks together to make him look over at her. Finally, she had let go of her emotions and became a teary mess, non-stop sniffing before him.
Almost used to her mood swings already, Daryl couldn't help but chuckle softly despite the seriousness of the situation, amused by the little it took to make her cry now, even if she was already quite emotional beforehand.
ā€œBaby, yar crying... again. I swear yer hormones have been all over the place,ā€ he stated in a playful manner, gently wiping away her tears with his thumb. He then took her hands into his own, holding them gently. The difference in size and texture was kinda silly.
ā€œStillā€¦ Yar dang right 'bout us, we're gonna stick together. I ain't never been good at all this family business, but I'll do whatev'r it takes for ya and our young'un.ā€ Daryl promised to her lover, feeling more accepting of his new role.
ā€œI-I can't help it... sniff the pregnancy... sniff I swear I've never been so emotional about everything before... sniff I hate it... And you know I hate swearing tooā€¦ā€ She complained, her voice increasing in intensity as she recalled her distaste for swearing and swearing words.
ā€œIt justā€¦ It hurts me so much when sniff I see you like this... Like you'll get tired of me or sick of us, andā€”ā€
Y/N stopped herself, incapable of completing what came to mind as more tears fell. The unlooked-for thought brought a new fear to her mind: a possible future without Daryl, having to tend and care for the baby alone.
It terrified her.
Daryl's expression softened even more as he saw her tear up. Damn hormones got her all upset, and all he wanted to do was take it all away. His chest twisted in pain when she mentioned he could get tired of her, so he gently pulled her closer to him with a firm grip.
ā€œHey, hey, hey, look at me,ā€ he said, guiding her gaze to his by holding her chin. ā€œSunray, ya got nothin' to worry about, y'hear me? I ain't goin' nowhere... 'M plum crazy 'bout ya, and I ain't never leaving ya or our young'un, I promise. I ain't getting tired of you, sweetheart; yar everythin' to me.ā€
He confessed sweet things to her, wanting Y/N to feel the depth of his love for her.
ā€œB-butā€¦ sniff the way you sniff yelled beforeā€¦ā€ She argued between sniffs and hiccups, being so focused on her mood that she kept forgetting to breathe properly.
ā€œI thought Iā€¦ I did something to sniff get you upset with me again, like... sniff like when sniff I misplaced your crossbow last week and you sniff wouldn't talk to me until I found itā€¦ā€
She couldn't help but sob at the remembrance, making Daryl feel a pang of guilt when she mentioned his reaction earlier and last week. He had made her so hurt for not talking to her that it still poked at her. And damn, she was crying even more now. He hated seeing her like this. His little sunray was all cloudy because of him.
ā€œHey, come on now, sweetcheeks... I'm sorry for hollerin' at ya, ait? I was a bit... on edge, but it had nothin' to do with ya, ait? S'not nothin' to worry about.ā€ He spoke softly as he pulled her even closer, his hand gently rubbing her back in soothing circles, just like she did to him minutes ago.
ā€œAnd 'bout that crossbow, that was nothin'.ā€
ā€œBut... sniff you got so angry... hiccup I thought you'd hate me forever if I couldn't find itā€¦ hiccup and the thing is, you always placed it anywhere! hiccupā€
Y/N protested, claiming Daryl was the one constantly dropping his weapon all over the house, but the truth was, she was actually the one changing its location.
The pregnancy sure had its shortcomings, but one of them that mostly affected Y/N was easily misplacing things because she became a lot more forgetful (possibly because of the amount of blood, nutrients, and oxygen she was losing each day to provide to her baby and help him/her keep growing healthily). So, each time she'd see the crossbow somewhere she previously placed it while doing house chores, she'd think it was Daryl who placed it there, and she'd put it somewhere else, and then she'd come across it again and place it somewhere else, over and over again.
It happened multiple times before with less meaningful things, but this was Daryl's crossbow we were talking about. When he would come back home looking for his main weapon, Daryl would find it missing, and when he would ask Y/N, she wouldn't remember where she last saw it.
After hours of scattering the whole house, she felt so silly when they finally found the crossbow inside their wardrobe. She couldn't even remember keeping it there, but... all pointed out that the pregnancy was just taking the best of her, and Daryl's stress wasn't really helping much.
Despite Daryl understanding the situation was a consequence of the pregnancy later on and trying as best as he could to make her feel better, inside her mind, she couldn't help but continue blaming herself for making him angry that day.
The silent treatment he gave her seemed to have broken her heart into two.
Daryl listened to her words, realising the severity of the case and feeling more stupid for not fully catching how much that incident had affected Y/N. Seeing her tears made his heart ache even more.
He ran a hand through his hair in frustration, feeling guilty for causing her so much worry, knowing she had too much on her plate already.
ā€œHear me out now. I ain't never gonna hate ya, y'hear? It was ma fault for bein' dang careless with where I left ma stuff. I shouldan't given ya the silent treatment; I was jus... frustrated,ā€ he let on, taking the blame to make her feel less remorseful.
ā€œI'm sorry... hiccup I just don't want to make you angry againā€¦ā€ She hiccuped once more, feeling her eyes water up for the nth time.
Daryl gently cupped her face, his calloused thumbs wiping away the tears. ā€œYa ain't got nothin' to apologise for, sweetheart. Believe me, I'm the one who should be apologisin' to ya.ā€
Daryl sighed.
ā€œ 'm sorry for giving' ya the silent treatment. I was bein' a damn fool. Ya didn't do nothin' wrong, ait? I'll never be angry with ya for real. I swear,ā€ he admitted.
ā€œReally?ā€¦ā€ she asked with a trembling voice and big puppy eyes. He looked into her hazel eyes, his gaze loving.
ā€œReally. I promise.ā€
He gently brushed a strand of hair from her face; his touch was tender.
ā€œYar carryin' our baby, remember? Tha's the most important thang rite now. Ain't nothin' else matters more than ya and our young'un. I ain't gonna waste time bein' mad over stupid shit like lost crossbows when I gotta take care of ya,ā€ he professed, making a second vow to himself to keep you and his future child safe.
Y/N sniffed her feelings for the last time and tried to collect herself.
ā€œAlrightā€¦ā€
She placed her chin over his head and hugged his neck softly, allowing him to place his head over the beginning of her belly, giving him access to listen to the baby's little movements and her heartbeats.
ā€œI love you, Daryl... I love you so much, I don't know what I would do without you.ā€ She still felt somewhat emotional as she said this, but she gave it her all to avoid crying again.
Daryl wrapped his arms around Y/N while placing his head gently over her belly. He listens intently to her heartbeats, the sound of them comforting him. He momentarily turned his head to place a gentle kiss on her belly, his lips lingering for a moment as he treasured this moment.
ā€œI love ya too, baby. Y'all and this little 'un got me wrapped around yer dang fingers. Don't know what I'd do without y'all...ā€ He hugged her tightly, not wanting to let her go.
He caressed her cheek with his hand, his fingers lightly tracing the contour of her jawline.
He then gently rested his forehead against hers, their breaths mingling as they shared this intimate moment as they looked forward to whatever the future had in store for them because, if anything was sure, it was that they would do anything to stay together in love.
Tumblr media
EXTRA:
They stayed on the pond for a while longer until Y/N said:
ā€œI wanna have strawberries and cheese,ā€ and Daryl looked at her like she had gone crazy.
ā€œBerries 'n cheese? You serious?ā€ he questioned. ā€œIt tastes goodā€¦ā€ she whispered, defending herself.
Daryl shook his head, still not finding sense in those strange pregnancy food cravings, but he still wouldn't deny any of her cravings. If his queen wanted to eat strawberries and cheese, the man would get them for her.
ā€œIf tha' what ya want,ā€ he answered, shrugging, making Y/N hug him, glad that he agreed on getting the'snackā€™ for her.
ā€œI love you, Daryl.ā€ ā€œLove ya too, sweetcheeks.ā€
Tumblr media
A/N: OH MY GOOD GOD, FINALLY. THIS WAS THE LONGEST I'VE EVER WRITTEN. Editing this was such a pain... But was worth it! Also, I may be planning a few more stuff for this cottagecore reader... as well as other projects of course. I think I'm gonna be super occupied now because I've got work, but I'm also planning a travel (and I wanna participate in two Daryl-related writing challenges...).
May God help me because I don't think I can help myself on this šŸ˜­ but anws, this was super endearing to write. It went through very little changes since the draft, compared to other stuff I wrote, and I did a collage image banner for it, inspired by @dixons-sunshine whenever she works on her stuff. Yeah, as you can see, all this post is focused on you hahaha, hope you had the greatest day today and I love ya lots. May God keep you for even longer and give you many more reasons to rejoice, celebrate and thank Him IJN šŸ„°
Now, imma retire now bc I stayed up almost all night trying to edit this... and I got work early in the morning... (seriously, this was like 12 pages on Word... šŸ’€) See ya all around!
Thanks and God bless!~

Hello!! Iā€™m so glad I found your blog when I returned to tumblr after 5 years haha, your posts and opinions are always sound and thought provoking :)
I was just curious, and Iā€™ve asked this of a couple others since Iā€™m like a dragon with a hoard I love me some opinions, after 9+ hours of AYS do you still think jikook might be real? And do you think it showed that they were together thru chapter 2 (I know some believe that there was a break up).
My answer is yes, that there is strong chance that they are dating and were doing so throughout chapter 2. But would love your insight too :)
Hi anon,
Let me just make it clear that Iā€™ve never claimed to be 100% sure that Jikook are a couple but I 100% believe that their relationship over the years hasnā€™t always been a platonic one.
After watching over 9 hours of AYS I am still certain that Jikook love each other and are important to each other. I am also certain that the nature of their relationship hasnā€™t always been platonic but I am one of those people who believes that something was off with them during parts of the solo era. I donā€™t know if I would say they broke up or were on a break (because I donā€™t know that) but I do think something was a little off especially around the time when they shot the NY episodes. It doesnā€™t necessarily have to be that they broke up or were on a break but sometimes when peopleā€™s circumstances change, it is normal that they go through some hurdles in their relationships. We all know that the solo era came with Jimin and Jungkook having completely different schedules and I also think that at some point they were both operating on different wavelengths and probably needed other people more than they needed each other (this is normal and there is absolutely nothing wrong with needing other people more than you need you lovers at certain times) I think that at some point their very different lives and schedules made things difficult for them to maintain a normal relationship and it possibly caused some distance between them. I have never been one who has always been stuck to the opinion that Jimin and Jungkook have a normal or conventional type relationship. I have always been open to the possibility that maybe they couldnā€™t quite have that because of their circumstances but iā€™ve never doubted that there was something more going on between them.
So to answer your question more directly I would say iā€™m not positive that things were the same during certain points of the solo era and that includes when they filmed the NY episodes of AYS but I think by the time they filmed Jeju and Sapporo, things were pretty much back to normal and Jikook seemed like the Jikook we knew. I cannot say for sure if they were on a break or if they broke up but what I can say for sure is that, that something which felt a little off with them at the beginning, disappeared as we progessed through the episodes as I could sense a shift in energy, plus, just watching the episodes after NY and aside from noticing the obvious closeness and connection between Jikook, you could see that they were very updated about each otherā€™s lives. We had Jimin singing Jungkookā€™s unreleased ā€œ3Dā€, Jungkook knowing about Jiminā€™s upcoming album and also seeing his performance video with the kids way before it was released and even just the fact that they decided to enlist together. All these were proof that whatever was off between them before, had been sorted out.
I know this is a touchy subject for Jikookers as many people have different opinions about Jikook in chapter two and some jikookers donā€™t like hearing about the possibility of Jikook having off moments or possibly being or breaks or breaking up, but it happens. I feel like sometimes we forget that we have been following up moments of these guys lives that have spanned for over 13 years and there is no way in these 13 years it was always smooth sailing. I think itā€™s normal that within these periods, we would experience them in all sorts of states and probably watch them go through thick and thin without even realizing exactly what they are going through.
I think by the time Jikook were done filming AYS, they were ok. I think alot of the ā€œoffnessā€ that I sensed probably happened because of a drastic change in their lives which they both probably didnā€™t know how to handle well. Jimin and Jungkook had been used to being together almost all the time. Going through all the years since they met in 2012 and then debuted in 2013, there is not a single year that went by without us seeing or hearing about Jikook being joined at the hip. I think the first time they had to deal with that kind of separation since they met was the solo era with Jimin being neck deep in work and having to move in with producers temporarily to work on his album while Jungkook wasnā€™t doing anything at all. They were in very different places at the time so I think some distance crept in. Jimin was in work mode and needed people in work mode while Jk was on rest mode and needed people on that same wavelength. At the beginning of last year, it was crystal clear that Jungkook was going through something. I donā€™t want to be presumptuous and say that what ever seemed to be bothering him had to do with Jimin because I donā€™t know that but I think it was interesting how much he couldnā€™t hide the fact that he missed Jimin. Whether as a friend or as a lover, it isnā€™t debatable that Jungkook missed him so much. Him instinctively asking Jimin to come over and do stuff with him everytime Jimin commented on his lives, him watching tons of Jimin content and talking about him alot, him replying to Jiminā€™s ā€œI miss Youā€ post on weverse and then proceeding to watch a bunch of Jimin centric contentā€¦.he missed him. I cannot put my finger on whatever was going on but the dots are connecting and something sure was off at the some point last year but all is well that ends well. We may never get to find out what exactly happened and may just be stuck with speculation but I guess we can all rest easy knowing that at this very moment, at the end of everything, Jimin and Jungkook found their way back to each other and are together right now going through one of the most difficult moments of their lives together and theyā€™ll only come back, closer and much more connected than they ever were. (gosh this sounds so cheesy lol)

K ā€“ Hard Dom
Literally I cannot see K as anything other than a hard dom. No matter how cutesy he acts normally, in bed heā€™s a beast no doubt. Heā€™s the kind of dom who would set out a whole reward and punishment system from the very beginning. But really it didnā€™t matter because for you both reward and punishment represents the same thing ā€“ pleasure. You donā€™t even have to request him for any experiments you wanna try out, because he is the most experimental bitch okay. Heā€™s flexible as fuck too so heā€™ll fuck you in every possible position and make you cum and squirt in each of them. And itā€™s not just the positions that heā€™ll be experimenting on, expect to be trying out all sorts of toys in his sight all night until youā€™re all spent and passed out in the morning. Heā€™ll also edge you as punishment, pulling out his fingers every time you felt your orgasm approaching leaving you whining and sobbing. As reward, heā€™ll overstimulate you, swirling his tongue skillfully around your clit while pounding three of his digits into your dripping pussy till you feel all numb and dumbified. Dirty talk 100% too, harsher words if its angry sex of course. Prepare for him to degrade you, mock you and tease you in every possible vocabulary ever.
ā€œYou wouldnā€™t want euijoo to see how much of a slut you are right~?ā€
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fuma ā€“ Soft Dom
His body maybe built as fuck but his heart has such a sweet spot for you. Heā€™s more of a lovey dovey person rather than a degrader. But that doesnā€™t stop him from destroying you with his huge girthy cock though. Heā€™ll pour out praises and whines while pounding into you like thereā€™s no tomorrow. Bro is a softy at heart but heā€™s definitely not soft down there. Would repeatedly whine your name out loud when he started chasing his own orgasm. 100% into breeding you so bad, just watching your pussy getting filled to the brim with his seed to the point your stomach started swelling up at one point. Heā€™d lose his mind from just that sight. Definitely a cum eater. He would pull out after filling you up, before kneeling on his knees, head between your legs and started lapping up the mixture of your and his cum that spills out your stretched pussy.
ā€œYou look so cuteā€¦ falling apart on my tongue baby..~ā€
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nicholas ā€“ Wild Switch
Feel like everyone in the legal line has their own chosen sides like either dom or sub accurately but this dude, this bitch got no sides, because he be taking every role. All depends on your request. If you say you wanted to take the lead, heā€™ll definitely lay himself beneath for you to use him however you want. But heā€™ll still definitely be bratty about it though, would piss you off, mocking you, saying how what youā€™re doing to him is so ineffective and weak, just so you would grow wilder. But if you put him in charge thoughā€¦ bro turns into K honestly. You cannot stop this man. He is like K number 2, he will have you moaning and gushing all over his cock until youā€™re on the verge of passing out. Not to mention, itā€™s very easy to make Nicho jealous, you can easily tell if your little mischievous plan works or not from the look on his face. Heā€™ll drag you away to the nearest isolated area and break your mind with his cock.
ā€œFuck.. had your fun pissing me off huh~?ā€
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ej ā€“ Soft Sub
Whiny soft sub. Thatā€™s what Ej is. Itā€™s just the easiest thing ever to make Ej blush. Just a small dirty little tease and heā€™s already up and ready, his face flushed. A subby pervert so any slight wording or action, could get his cock twitching to life. Once that happens, youā€™d best believe youā€™ve got a whole lot of responsibility on your hands now. Because that boy more specifically his girthy cock has infinite stamina, it ainā€™t gonna go down in just a few strokes hell no. Vanilla boy though but still could be rough if heā€™s feeling way too much pleasure. Once his cock is in your mouth, you bobbing your head licking and choking on it, in just a few seconds heā€™ll find his hands in your hair, pushing your head down in a swift. As you felt his tip goes deeper down your throat, you gagged around it rolling your eyes back. That sight alone could get Mr. Vanilla cumming in a whip, whining out little sorries as he shot his seed into your mouth.
ā€œAaah~ s-sorry love~ Iā€™m sorry~ I canā€™t h-hold back..anymore..!ā€
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yuma ā€“ Soft Dom
This boy. This cute ass little kitty, heā€™s not so much of a kitty when he fucks though. Yumaā€™s the type of baby boy who would come up to you from behind while youā€™re cooking or washing the dishes, starts nibbling on your neck sweetly signaling you that heā€™s horny while rubbing his bulge against your back. Thereā€™s no way you could say no when you felt arousal starts pooling in your underwear from his mere actions. Yuma is the type of boyfriend who loves to fuck you with any type of outfits on. Bonus points if theyā€™re intentionally sexy of course, but he still finds you sexy in anything. Heā€™ll rip your skirt in an instant but when you try to get out of your apron, heā€™ll stop you, telling you that heā€™d prefer you with only an apron on. You agreed to his little suggestion, taking your top off as well staying only in your apron. It only took a second until heā€™s pounding into you in a heated state.
ā€œNoona~ you look so good.. exposed for me like this~ā€
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jo ā€“ Average Dom
Shy Jo is definitely a dom but he neither leans on the hard side nor the soft side. Heā€™s just in the middle level kind of dude. But that doesnā€™t mean he canā€™t go rough with you. This cute baby-faced cutie could definitely destroy your petite body into oblivion. 100% size kink. The height difference between you and him alone proves it too much. With your petite body, this boy wouldnā€™t show it on his face but he was secretly getting more and more turned on from how the huge bulge on your stomach was visible every time he pounds into you. But his excitement was definitely obvious from his twitching cock in you. Youā€™d gasp suddenly when you could even feel him getting a bit bigger inside you. And itā€™s not just in fucking, he also loved and I mean LOVED it when your small mouth was filled with his cock. Your cheeks puffing up, tears welling up in your eyes, as you struggled to breathe, not being able to take it whole. He wouldnā€™t be too harsh but he would sometimes tug on your head and push your head, making you take more than you can, as he secretly gets turned on seeing the tiny droplets of tears hanging on the edge of your eyes fell down your cheeks uncontrollably.
ā€œ..love open wider now.. cmon you can take it..~ just a bit more~ā€

Hello! First I want to say I really like your fae story! The world building in it is insane and I'm so glad Buddie is finally together. Second, you don't have to answer but why have you been posting stuff with tommy? I don't understand why any Buddie shipper would like him, he's such a pos in the begins episodes...why write him with Buck? You don't have to answer, but there are lots of Buddie shippers switching sides and I don't see why.
Hiiiii.
So, first off thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying Come Away, and I hope the ending coming up satisfies :) Second, ngl, I did consider not answering that question cause I really don't like wading into fandom drama...but that was a super respectful ask and I DO quite like the character so...fuck it, we ball.
This is probably gonna be long and rambly but the TL;DR is I think the fact that Tommy Kinard IS introduced as a piece of shit makes for really interesting nuance to the character and also I'm a multishipper...just cause bacon and pineapple is my favorite pizza flavor doesn't mean I DON'T like pepperoni or have decided never to eat it again (also, I have less than 10k words of BuckTommy on AO3 and, like, almost 300k of Buddie, so I don't think I've switched sides, lol)
As for why I can like Tommy and specifically Tommy and Buck together despite the aforementioned POS'ness, sure I'll cop to part of it being I am just so damn excited for bi!Buck, I'd have been happy with just about anyone awakening that in him. But also because Tommy, to me, is a fucking interesting character and DOES make a lot of sense as someone that Hen and Chim could forgive and be friends with, and that could be good for Buck.
First off there are some things I think we have to acknowledge about Tommy that are factual or can be inferred as factual from the show. 1. For his timeline to make ANY sense, he can generously be in his late thirties to early forties. For it to make sense without him being some kind of prodigy in a couple areas, he has to be in his mid-to-late forties. 2. He was at LEAST partially raised by someone who reminds him uncomfortably of Gerrard, a CARTOONISHLY boorish, evil, bigot. 3. He was closeted for a very long time.
All of those factors together make for someone who honestly, it would have been nearly IMPOSSIBLE for them NOT to be a piece of shit, and a textbook example of how patriarchal systems, toxic masculinity, and white supremacy are also harmful to the people who benefit from them.
Let me preface this by saying I don't think the harm Tommy suffered was anywhere near as great as what Hen and Chim (or any person of color) go through. And, of course, Hen and Chim don't owe him shit. Forgiving him or not is entirely up to them and the right choice whatever they choose.
My point is, Tommy almost certainly grew up in an environment where his worst flaws and character traits were just...normal. I think a lot of people don't understand how much LARGER the world has gotten with the modern day internet, how much easier it is to be exposed to things outside your own bubble. I'm either right around Tommy's age or a little younger, depending on the estimate you use and guys...I just don't have words for how INSULAR my worldview was growing up compared to now. How much everyone around you, even in larger cities, tended to be Just Like You. You had to live in true sprawling metropolises to be exposed to the kind of diversity that we take for granted now. It is a terrible thing, but when everyone around you, everyone you look up to, everyone you love and care about, and who is supposed to love and care about you thinks the same thing, you don't tend to question it. You don't even notice it. My own loving, wonderful, give-you-the-shirt-off-her-back grandmother, who was educated af in a time women really weren't as a rule, and spent her life as a teacher was racist as FUCK. And the really insidious kind...the "I don't hate them, but why can't they just stay on their side of town?" kind, the passive-aggressive comments that only sting the people they're aimed at so no one thinks to defend the victim kind. It's the weirdest cognitive dissonance to know someone as kind, loving, and moral and ALSO realize that the kindness, love, and morality only included certain people. If my parents had not moved around so much, exposing me to different environments (or if they'd been a little less lenient with my internet access when it started exploding) I honestly can't say whether or not I would have ended up just like my grandma. I like to think I wouldn't have, but that's the point...it's a frog in slowly boiling water situation. I think we can all safely say a parent like Gerrard was not creating an environment in which it was safe or even possible to question the hate.
And from that homelife Tommy had to have gone straight into the military during the heights of DADT, wherein hiding your true self from everyone around you was the acceptable compromise to just straight up having your life ruined (if not completely ended).
Now. Does any of this EXCUSE Tommy being a pretty racist, sexist piece of shit in the begins episodes? No. But it is an EXPLANATION and a true-to-life example of how those systems that everyone has to operate in are harmful no matter what. At the time, given what was almost certainly his background, Tommy would almost certainly have to have been INCREDIBLY self-aware and self-actualized (and honestly, really, REALLY fucking brave) not to have been molded into...precisely what he is. A pretty racist, pretty sexist piece of shit who is throwing anyone and everyone he has to under the bus (consciously or not) to divert attention from his own deviation from the "norm".
Okay, HocusPocus, you might say, so this still begs the question why the hell you think Tommy deserves to even breathe the same air as your favorite blorbo.
And let me again preface by saying I acknowledge the show leaves a lot to inference here. As 911 is wont to do, extremely important character moments are handled "off-screen."
That being said, we do get to see Tommy acknowledging he was wrong about Hen and Chim and getting to a place of mutual respect, if not friendship (personally, I think the going away party when Tommy leaves the 118 shows they've made it to friendship...I don't care how much you respect someone, cake, balloons, and a surprise party are strictly friend things). When Chim calls Tommy to take them out to the cruise ship like...Tommy's risking his life AND his career there, if not outright jail time. Just on Chim and Hen's say-so. Again...that's FRIEND level actions, not just "I respect you as a colleague". We see, either right there on screen or through deleted scenes, that everyone around Buck trusts Tommy with him. When have we ever seen the 118 be shy about expressing their displeasure over one of Buck's LI's? If Hen and Chim still harbored resentment towards Tommy, and didn't truly believe he'd changed and was good enough for Buck, do we REALLY think that wouldn't have been expressed?
Are there valid criticisms of the character? Sure. I think a lot of it can be explained by the rushed nature of season 7 with such a large ensemble cast, but yeah, Tommy's not super developed and a LOT of the issues between him, Hen , and Chim are left to inference. That's fair.
But I think the show MEANS us to make those inferences, that Hen and Chim's actions and interactions with him show that Tommy has done the work to change, and they accept that he's changed and it also says a lot about them that they can forgive him and be friends with him (which, again, he is NOT owed and they would have been perfectly valid in denying him).
So, yeah. I like him. I think he's interesting and while Buddie remains my OTP, I am very interested to see where Tevan goes this coming season.
Also, Lou is fucking pretty ;)

Hi, I recently stumbled upon your blog and I am so glad I did! While Iā€™m very sorry for all the troll hate youā€™ve received, I like the sassy way youā€™re handling them. Iā€™m trying to find the humor in why so many people are pressed and feel like they need to defend something that you havenā€™t even denied is real. And just because you have a different opinion, they cannot handle it. Reading your responses, and reading the responses of other people with whom I share similar sentiments, has made me laugh and feel better over the last week. Iā€™ve been desperately trying to find other posts/people that have similar vibes because this wholeā€¦ situation-ship has been a bit much. I also appreciate your reminder that ā€œno matter how good a man seems, trying to justify anything they do is still a sure path to disappointment!ā€Ā 
I was wondering if you had any thoughts about Lukeā€™s social media lately? Iā€™ve read some points about how messy his social media presence has been handled (or mishandled) over the past year+ and how it did not help with the way everything played out. Also, I feel like heā€™s either turned on notifs for Nic because heā€™s been very diligent about liking all her posts, or maybe, heā€™s finally gotten a team to handle it. I just feel like everyone is in crisis comms mode, trying to wrangle back control. Just genuinely curious because itā€™s what Iā€™ve been pondering over for the last day or two. Thank you in advance for your time if you answer my ask!
I'm so sorry this took me awhile - I started replying it in the morning on the way to work but decided I needed to gather my thoughts more.
To the first part: I completely empathise with how the entire situation has just been so "much" - it really has. It seems so silly, but somehow, whether or not two people I DON'T KNOW are in love or not in love, are best friends or are not best friends - can affect so much of my mental and emotional wellbeing.
I know I'm being parasocial (it seems to be the internet buzzword of the moment). But let's be clear: almost EVERYONE online - everyone who has written in to my ask box, who has commented, who has liked - everyone on twitter and tiktok who has talked about this - they're all just as parasocial. Because we're all assuming and casting aspersions on people we do not personally know. No one online who engages in discourse has the moral or ethical high ground. We are ALL in the gutter together (that said - I believe the gutter has many levels šŸ˜‚).
IN ANY CASE - I just want to assure you that what you're feeling is not some atypical affliction. It is normal to feel awful that something you believed in and something you felt happy about is untrue. It is normal to look for other people who feel the same because misery is always better with company. It is normal to feel disappointed even as you remind yourself that men have been useless since the dawn of time.
The best counter to all these sad, awful feelings is to remember that life is a cycle. That life is complex. And although I'm saying this for the millionth time - that life has many, many grey areas.
As a kid I thought Zanessa was everything. Then they broke up, and she got together with Austin whom I hated. For years I seethed at the very mention of them. And after almost a decade... they also broke up. And not even 2 years after that, she's married and with child.
For a long time I also thought Brangelina was everything - you can't imagine my devastation when they divorced and I found out Brad is a complete dirtbag. But at the same time that I felt this horrible upset - I'm sure TONS of other people were feeling vindicated because they were fans of Jen A.
There are just SO MANY other stories like that. I mean come on - JLo and Ben Affleck. On again, off again, finally made it to the altar ... and now they're headed for divorce.
Chris and Mariska - both married to other people for 27 bloody years (or maybe longer) - and still making it very clear they are each others soulmates - and NOT platonic ones btw.
Tony and Kerry - WHAT EVEN ARE THEY? Perhaps the only pair on the internet that has people rooting for cheating and affairs šŸ˜‚
Lessons: don't let a long term boyfriend stop you from finding a husband. Don't let a husband stop you from finding your soulmate. Don't let your soulmate stop you from engaging in a late, great love affair.
All crazy, contradicting statements distilled from all the above real life stories.
It makes one thing very clear to me: I can believe what I want to believe about Luke and Nicola. Because no one fucking knows what is in the future. They could get together next month. Next year. When they're in their 70s. No one can tell me SHIT about what I believe - not when life is clearly full of incredible twists and turns.
So fuck it. Fuck the haters and the antis and the naysayers. I can ship them till the day I die and no one can tell me any different. Because how could they? They literally canNOT !
To the second part: this is an easy answer and there's no need to think too much into it. Luke's social media has simply undergone an extensive renovation by his agents and team in anticipation of him becoming a big star (whether or not that will actually happen remains to be seen). All highly personal, "non-aesthetic" posts of his have been archived - his posts are all related to work and his coworkers. He has many posts with Nicola because he / his team knows those get the most engagement - and the more engagement he gets, the better the IG algorithm works in his favour to push his OTHER, non-Nicola or Bridgerton related posts to people's feeds. I don't think anyone is in crisis comms mode tbh. Maybe Nicola panicked a bit after she posted that tiktok that everyone took wildly out of context. But beyond that I don't think the wider audience gives af who he's dating - it seems like his personal life is very big news only because we keep searching about it and talking about it and so it feels like EVERYONE is. But if you step outside the online bridgerton fandom bubble ..... no one cares. There is a HEFTY portion of netflix viewers who watch bridgerton without EVER going online to read about the actors.
Long story short I think Nicola and Luke will become even MORE conscious about what they post - but I don't believe there was a crisis in the true sense of the word. And although Luke's team clearly handles his socials he obviously has access to it as well. Btw - all celebs have someone who handles their socials I'm sure Nic does too, just that she's also on her own account a lot. I don't know if Luke has his notifs on for Nicola's posts but even if he does I don't believe his consistent likes mean anything much. I mean...he also diligently likes all of Antonia's posts šŸ˜‚
Social media isn't much of an indicator of honesty to me ... as someone whose work heavily involves it, everything is curated to a disgusting degree.
What I put more stock in is what we can see - and what we can see of them when they DON'T think about being seen - which is to say, all the unconscious, natural moments between Nicola and Luke - the vibe around them both, and the easy way they breathe and exist together.
That's what makes me such a big believer in their bond.

I am totally here for Cars worldbuilding ramblings
THANK YOU, USER FAN OF THE SOAP
I'm glad I'm not scaring all of my audience lmao.
Now, let me talk to you about how nightmarish ableist is Cars 2.
You see, I was subjected to a very special kind of torture called "I have two nephews who were obssesed with Cars 2, not 1 or 3 or Planes, but Cars 2. And they would watch it for three times, every day, for about two months. And I had to be with them".
Which I'm sure did something bad to my brain, my standards of what's annoying in a movie are wrecked and I can still hear dialogue per dialogue on my mind.
Cars 2 got away with a special kind of ableism that I want to believe any other movie wouldn't have been able to get away with on our current era, all because is Cars.
But there's also A LOT OF violence in that movie, we see on screen characters violently exploding, being subjected to torture and also the equivalent of open-heart surgery, black market of organs, and a literal bomb being put into an individual. Because is Cars it just could do so.
The thing about Cars 2 is that all the villains are disabled cars. They're unable to function properly and constantly will be unable to turn on their engines, are called slurs and, in the case of the rich-mafia adjacent ones, literally have hired medical assistance (a tow truck). And all of this because we're told that their parts have been descontinued, which technically gives us the grim implication that they're basically left to die slowly as they can't keep changing their parts. There aren't humans, and this isn't a human-post apocalyptic universe (no matter how much people Insist, i refuse to accept that theory). Which means that the fabrication of these parts and thus, the ones in charge of the literal poblation's development, must be other vehicles, most probably Cars.
Very powerful and rich Cars like it goes beyond a comparison in real world, they aren't the ones in charge of meds or health care, they're literally in charge of the whole production/birth of Cars, and by deciding what parts to make and what parts to descontinue they're slso deciding who gets to live and who gets to die.
And this isn't possibly a "new" problem, is probably something rooted in the Cars' universe culture for thousands of years. If let's say the Wright brothers were, idk, bikes. They created the first plane (which then died in seconds), so they're basically Victors Frankesteins and this is legal, this is absolutely completely normal in this universe because otherwise there's no way for new models to exist.
So every generation of vehicles have this deep, ingrained thought of " we're building the generation that reemplaces us, in every way they're better and as soon as there's a better version, we will cease to exist and cease to be produced".
I remain of the theory that parents in Cars basically buy parts and assembly their own child and then as time passes, they change parts until we get the general "adult" model. But this also means some parents might be unable to buy parts and what not, does this stunt the child development? Probably.
In Cars 3, Lightning McQueen is unable to keep compiting because the new gen is of much better tech, so I assume it's already happening to him what I just explained: At some point, the production of their parts/ maintenance becomes obsolete. So Lightning can keep on living, for a long while, but no matter the reparations or even the modifications, apparently you can't completely modify a car otherwise you would have a Thesseus ship predicament.
In Planes, Dusty is capable to get several modifications, but they aren't extreme. However we see a little car that's able to change into a plane, and we see he apparently has a split personality , which makes me a bit icky because -gestures-, Hollywood also loves to make awful reps about DID. But, this seems to support the idea that extreme changes= basically a different person in the Cars universe. And an awful idea is to face the familiars of a vehicle that got into an accident "we can save them by almost completely rebuilding them, but might as well be a different person".
So back to Cars 2, all these villain Cars are disabled and suffering because someone, literally decided that isn't worth it, these models can't continue their existence when our engineers/doctors already created a new version.
And they must go along with it! They must accept it, because their society has been accepting it for hundreds of years by now! And so the movie decided to make them the literal mafia and a violent murderous group of terrorist and spies, what a move.
The movie tries to make Mater to be some sort of disabled character as well, he keeps being called dumb, ugly and whatever for the whole movie, he's all covered in rust and shamed for an oil leak. And nothing of this is resolved or really addressed, because not only his problems aren't even comparable to those of the villains (is implied he's rusty and all covered in bumbs just because he choses to), his character arc is basically that he's capable of solving a mystery not even the spies figured out at the time, the classic "actually i can be useful" that Hollywood loves.
And we learn the motives for the villains, and like, yeah, that's awful! All those murders and a political fraud to try to get rich by owning oil, but no one gives an ounce of sympathy for a group of characters that literally need medical assistance almost 24/7. The mafia guys can afford to hire tow truck and the big multi-millionarie villain can afford his constant surgeries, to the point of being able to disguise himself and look "normal"
And it drives me crazy that no one mentions this, but I can't blame people, most people weren't subjected to this movie three times per day for 60~ days.
If anyone read this far, you should thank to @soapysudz for fueling me (GET IT?!! FUEL?! -recorded laughs-)

to set the record straight, as I have zero things to hide.
Tumblr media
[IMAGE ID: a tumblr post by user crippled-peeper, it is a reblog chain of 3 posts. It reads ā€œaccuses me of ā€œrace fakingā€ because I talked about being a refugee from Katrina checks my bio again first line: white manā€ next reblog reads ā€œidk whatā€™s more fucked up, that these bloggers are named ā€œspot the antisemitismā€ or ā€œ spot the ableismā€ or the fact that they are so racist and ableist they think the only way a white person could be a refugee is if theyā€™re making it upā€ next post reads ā€œ ā€œyou canā€™t be a refugee and disagree with me!!! Everyone knows that I am the arbiter of who is and isnā€™t a refugee as someone who lives in a gated community in the USA !!! Donā€™t you know I RUN A BLOG?!?!?ā€ The tags read ā€œ#Iā€™m so glad other people are im agreement that these kids are actual clowns not to be taken seriously at allā€ END ID:]
I never said or insinuated that you were not a climate refugee, nor that you were a racefaker
above is proof, I have not edited the posts nor want to. You have the reblogs to prove I in fact did not edit anything.
the things you are claiming I ā€œdidā€ were things that spot-the-antisemitism did and said.
intracommunity ableism is still ableism, hate speech against both Jewish and other disabled people is not okay, you can be both completely totally right to call out spot-the-antisemitismā€™s ableism and commit hate speech against random Jewish and disabled people. You can do both, nuance exists.
me calling you out on harmful behaviour and inciting hate speech is not a bad nor immoral thing Iā€™d hope you would do it to me.

if you are mad at me swearing at you may I remind you that you have committed way worse acts of hate speech and yet I gave you benefit of the doubt. People are allowed to swear at people.
i have said you may be having a horrible time right now due to medication troubles and that people should not harass you regardless. And that they should keep in mind that you have been through a lot and do not want harassment. I do also humbly apologise for swearing it was wrong of me to and not conducive to anything helpful.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
if anything I have been way too forgiving, what you have said to many well meaning and non-ableist/normal disabled people has been utterly vile and yet do I use that against you? Yet do I say those same things towards you? Yet do I mean to hurt or harass you? No.
I live my life, you live yours, I care about you enough to actually call out people who do wish to hurt you. I shouldnā€™t, but I do. If you return my very calm and sincere response with the same energy and hatred that you usually do it is not in good faith.
you are having a hard time, a hard time always. And I do not wish to contribute to that. But I cannot stay silent and let others be hurt by what you do and you say. Words do effect reality, there are people behind these screens and I am one, and I am writing this sincerely.
again why am I ableist when I was the one to in fact call out and hold spot-the-antisemitism accountable, and explain why it was bad? I spotted the ableism, simple as that.
I am no wimp, or coward if you wish to call me horrible things I am proud to Bare it.
As I do with all things.
sincerely a disabled person who was told way worse things than this over the course of my childhood.
if you do say "KYS" or any variation of it I will be reporting you.
as that. is. hate. speech. and violent speech which. is. not. legal.
I have not discriminated against you nor malgendered you, I have only sweared at you at the worst (and called out that fakeclaiming and spewing violent hate speech is unacceptable), if anything I have been on your side on most of this.
this comes from a place of love, not hatred.

season 3 summary: july 2024
Tumblr media
this summary is mainly for my personal documentation (i like documenting stuff), but i thought i'd post this in the blog too just in case anyone else was interested!
STATISTICS
Tumblr media
as you can perhaps tell by the "header", ace is first place for this month with seven appearances! ...though considering the situations he was involved in (most notably an undignified jumpscare, being put in air jail, and being put in a repurposed jail by the name of Arei's Haul), it may be more of a curse. arei, j, and whit all tie for second place with six appearances, which is a very normal occurrence at this point.
PERSONAL FAVORITES (in chronological order)
1) Teruko falls down the stairs (ft. her three* best** friends***) (CHAPTER 2 SPOILERS)
i really like eden and charles' sideeyes here. and drawing teruko falling down the stairs was always one of my main goals with this blog, so i'm glad i could accomplish that!
2) Class is NOT going well (CHAPTER 1 SPOILERS)
the people really liked this one too, it seems! i finished in time for their birthday, too... i'm bound by law to apologize because they happen to be a friend's favorite character. orz
3) Whit shows Xander how to wear a blazer
i've drawn this sprite twice now. he just looks endearing in what i like to call The Stupid Idiot Dog way. I promise I mean this with as much affection (and cuteness aggression) possible. maybe i'll draw more sprites in the future... especially the ones that barely get used
4) Do you see this shit, Min?
another meme redraw! not much thought here. i just want them to be friends, even if it starts from a shared exasperation with practically the rest of the class.
THE POWER OF HINDSIGHT
sometimes i think of adding punchlines in the situations, or fix errors after i've put them in the queue, but forget to actually. do that
veronika jumpscaring ace was supposed to have a dark background but i thought veronika jumpscaring him with a flashlight in broad daylight was way funnier. the end result would still be the same anyhow
as mentioned in both "class is NOT going well" and "min and mai eat taiyaki", the latter was supposed to be min's birthday post. but i saw the meme around a week before her birthday and i couldn't NOT draw it. and i actually finished it in time!!
levi's dialogue in this situation was supposed to allude to him putting ace in air jail, but i didn't know how to make j's dialogue MASSIVE while also leaving just enough words for the viewer to ponder about what exactly levi was doing beforehand
also about the above situation; j's second piece of dialogue was supposed to be lowercase. i try to modify everyone's dialogue according to how they'd probably type (from the top of my head arei, eden, and whit speak in lowercase and sprinkling in emoticons/kaomojis; ace and j also speak in lowercase but they often switch into Titlecase and UPPERCASE for emphasis). that time i forgot to proofread the capitalization though. i guess this is incredibly minor and doesn't even matter that much
arei was supposed to steal hu's butterfly pin off-screen and the situation would be hu recalling the incident to someone like. levi, eden, or david idk. and going "I am unfortunately disappointed but not surprised" with a serene expression. i thought the punchline of hu just giving her pin and arei considering it a defeat was funnier, so i ended up going with that
I really, really wanted to find proper motivational words that Arturo would say,,,,,, ach.....
OTHER REMARKS
i tried to mimic arei's canon handwriting for that header image! also that is indeed the jail cardboard box being repurposed as arei's inventory of stolen items. i guess ace lives there for now
i want to do vocaloid mv redraws... i think i've mentioned it here once before, but i'd like to try. although i probably can't do more "serious" songs
that one comment asking if arei brought ace in her suitcase (since she's wearing some stolen accessories) still makes me laugh because how does one even begin to approach that conclusion. you can freely interpret arei's bigger suitcase as a sign that a whole ass Ace Markey is stuck inside there, i suppose! thank you for the mental image!
unfortunately, my schedule this year is taxing enough that i literally can't draw fuit gumies everyday anymore (unless if it was just one single character standing). i'll still post something for everyone's birthdays, and i plan to draw something to start off september at least, but i'll wait until that post for a more concrete schedule
thank you for your support!
as promised, whether you've seen it or not; here is the miro canvas for the first three months/seasons! i've since moved into another one since it started lagging enough to annoy me.

šŸ‘€anon here, I've re-read pretty much all of your masterlists at least a few times each at this point šŸ˜… am always impressed with how prolific you are and how good your writing is! Thinking about your dimi hands hc...could I request how the girls would be with a s/o with an oral fixation? They notice initially things like their s/o near constantly having sweets/candy or a pen or a toothpick etc in their mouth but eventually those are replaced with the girls' fingers and maybe other things šŸ‘€šŸ‘€
Iā€™m glad youā€™re enjoying my works! :) makes me incredibly happy to hear yā€™all liking it this muchšŸ™‡ā€ā™€ļøšŸ«¶
speaking of: little info to everyone- Masterlist 3 is now due and out!!
This is a very interesting concept! Boy, have I got some ideas for it!šŸ‘€ (the referenced hand HC post can be found here)
Letā€™s get into it!šŸ™ŒšŸ˜š
Masterlist 1
Masterlist 2
Masterlist 3
Bela
Bela picks up on your oral fixation first. Sheā€™s very perceptive as it comes to the people she cares about, after all
Now, she doesnā€™t normally mind it
She does remind you of bacteria sometimes, though, and not to nibble on things that could be dirty, even if not so to the naked eye
Youā€™re her partner, her little human. She cares for you. She also tends to view humans as weaker than they are, and doesnā€™t want bacteria to be the reason you get sick
It starts with nibbling on your thumb or sleeve, your nails even
She has a nervous habit of biting her lip or the tip of her fingernail sometimes, so she barely even notices this at first
Then, she finds that you nibble on the end of pencils as you write and pause between words or sentences
Rarely she even finds wooden pencils with bite marks at the back. She is fast to dispose of those, however, whether they are from you, a maiden or one of her sisters
She doesnā€™t want them around
In some situations she even needed to remind you not to nibble on the paint of your paintbrush when painting- You didnā€™t even seem to notice
In other instances, she finds you absently reading with your necklace lifted to your mouth
She wonders, does this fixation of yours also apply in bed?
She knows you enjoy giving her oral. You never turn it down, and are always eager to have her pant from the pleasure she receives
It doesnā€™t help that she is painfully sensitive most of the time and grows incredibly wet for you
She is somewhat of a meal, really, between her legs
Still, Bela is curious about your oral fixation and thinks of taking it to the next level
The next time youā€™re intimate, and have your fingers inside of her, she strikes
Bela swiftly pushes her slender fingers in your mouth, three at the same time
For a moment, sheā€™s unsure- did she interpret it all wrong?
No, for she then notices you lick and suck them all too eagerly
Itā€™s a flustering and adorable sight to her
Often, she will randomly make you suck her fingers. Theyā€™re strong and thin, and you seem to take a lot of pleasure from having them in your mouth, your tongue swirling around them eagerly
But, it isnā€™t quite what she has in mind yet
After all, if you must suck on things, there are plenty other optionsā€¦
The moment Bela grew aware of your oral fixation, she has had distinct fantasies of you sucking her breasts
Her nipples are so sensitive, she canā€™t help it. She loves whenever you brush your tongue against them during sex, and it has her fantasize of you sucking them even more
Still, she is too shy to randomly bring it up
Again, during sex, when youā€™re pressed up against her and fondle her breasts, she is too lost in the pleasure to keep her naughty fantasy to herself
With her hand tangled in your hair, she gently guides your lips to her nipple
ā€œSuck it, little oneā€, she pleads softly
You do not need to be told twice ;)
And Bela? Oh, you draw the sweetest of sounds from her
She makes it a point to have her fingers and breast in your mouth as often as you like. She will never refuse
At times, even, she will randomly make you suck her fingers during the day merely to fluster you
Of course she will not turn you down to do either for mere comfort reasons too
She finds both actions rather comforting too, should they not happen in a sexual manner
Every time you do nibble on something, she will tease you lightly, though
Cassandra
She doesnā€™t think you have an oral obsession at first, just that- well- you like chewing things
She finds you biting pencil ends as you concentrate
And your fingers at times, even
Or chewing gum (which she DESPISES) for hours
Or perhaps sucking candy at every given opportunity
She doesnā€™t mind, she just thinks itā€™s intriguing once she picks up on it
When you start absently sucking the tip of your thumb when youā€™re concentrating, she crackles
ā€œMaybe you should get a pacifier?ā€, she suggests jokingly
Never did she think she would become one
Sleeping on top of you has always been something Cassandra likes to do, with her skin pressed tightly to yours and her hand rested on yours
As such, her chest is often close to you-
Cassandra is shocked when she wakes up in the middle of the night one time from a strange feeling around her nipple
Upon looking down, she finds you have it in your mouth, having had her breast pressed up against your chin prior
She shivers and shrieks a little when you bite down occasionally
Mistakingly, she thinks this is foreplay. But when she giggles, she hears no reaction from you. Youā€™re deep asleep
She grants you this for the night, unwilling to wake you, but will absolutely pull her sore breast away the moment you wake up
She is not a chewing toy!
The interaction has her curious, though
The next night, she slips her fingers inside your mouth as youā€™re barely awake. Call it curiosity
Again, in no time you start sucking them and nibbling a little. She grins at her discovery as she pulls her wet fingers away again
During the next days, she likes to randomly tip your chin and push her fingers in you
ā€œGood pet. Suck them for meā€
To clean them, she claims, but thereā€™s nothing to clean, really. She even makes sure theyā€™re blood-free for her precious human
Youā€™re flustered at this, but enjoy it
During sex, Cassandra implements this too- always has, in a way
Itā€™s as if she just takes more notice of it now
How your hands busy yourself on her while your mouth explores eagerly, biting and nibbling on her
Her lips, her jawline, her throat, her collarbone, her breasts and nipples, her ribcage and waist, her hip and her lower stomach, her cunt and thighs, even her behind
She gasps at each bite placed on her unexpectedly. You must really enjoy working with your mouth
She loves to have you suck her fingers, she realizes
During sex, she makes you do so while riding out your orgasm especially
She especially likes you nibbling and sucking her inner thighs
Sheā€™s sensitive there
Cassandra still enjoys teasing you about your oral obsession at any given opportunity
She likes to randomly push her fingers in you and watch you attempt to ignore them, only to end up biting down or sucking in the end
Daniela
Daniela is no stranger to a bit of an oral fixation, although hers is not quite as strong
She too enjoys nibbling on things occasionally, especially as she sleeps peacefully
It helps her relax
She loves to nibble on some of her stuffed animals, too, sometimes even strands of her hair
Still, it takes her surprisingly long to pick up this behavior in you
Then again, itā€™s not something that bothers her. She finds it cute whenever she finds you nibble on something
The only reason she takes proper notice of it in the first place, is because youā€™re cuddled up together and she suddenly feels you raise her hand, intertwined with yours, to your mouth
Youā€™re nibbling on the tip of your nail, breath warm against her colder and soft hand
Sheā€™s a little confused by this, though looking back, she has seen you do it before
Or sucking sweet or sour candy, which she always begs she can have
Or chewing well smelling gum at nearly all times
Or nibbling on your sleeve, until itā€™s wet
Or biting your lip and licking it over and over again
She wonders- why do you do it? Do you like it for comfort reasons? Or also sexual ones?
Her curiosity and teasing knows no bounds, and so she promptly turns you to her and pushes her fingers inside of your mouth instead
She likes watching them slide past your lips
ā€œDo you like that, my love?ā€, she asks, genuine, though teasing
You certainly do!
Daniela quickly finds she likes having you suck her nimble fingers. Especially during sex
Her favorite thing to do?
To tie you up nice and snug for her, finger herself and make her cream for you merely to push her wet fingertips in your mouth and make you lick it all off
ā€œDo you like this, my sweet?ā€, sheā€™ll tease lightly, with a knowing smirk on her soft, painted lips
She loves making you suck her fingers and swirl your tongue around them- itā€™s addictive to both of you
Out of all things you could suck on her body, she loves having her breasts or cunt sucked best
Her sensitive nipples rested in your mouth, or moans drawn from her when she moves lower at last
In non sexual situations, she grants you to nibble on her whenever you want
Daniela doesnā€™t mind, even offers getting you a stuffed animal to bite down on sometimes
She also makes sure you always have chewing gum or candy on hand
Even if she wants it for herself
She still enjoys pushing her fingers in your mouth too, if only to see your reaction, then swarm off giggling to herself

Hi there, I stumbled upon your blog and I am so glad I did! I really enjoyed reading your deep dives. I agree with a previous commenter; your posts have been articulate, understanding and compassionate while also being on the nose with your critiques. With all the heightened emotions right now, thank you for keeping things calm while also being able to explain your take on everything - itā€™s been very interesting to read! Iā€™ve been desperately trying to find other posts/people that have similar vibes because this wholeā€¦ situation-ship has been a bit much. I have to admit I learned a lot about Luke from your deep dives, mostly because I wasnā€™t really paying much attention to him until the press coverage started in earnest earlier this year. And Iā€™m not entirely sure what to make of him now; it was very eye opening and gave me plenty to think about. I genuinely liked him up until this all happened, and I think I still do, but my god, has he (and his team) created a mess for himself. Some thoughts, in no discernible order:Ā 
Saying he was most like his character/Colin. I 1000000000% agree with you here! I think thatā€™s why it was so jarring when people found out about the (not so secret, I now realize) gf. ā€œColin as a character made them feel seen. They couldn't separate Luke from Colin because he kept saying he was like Colinā€ Ugh, thatā€™s some heartbreak right there.Ā 
I also feel very strongly about the age thing, and Iā€™m heartened to hear Iā€™m not alone in this. The age gap would be one thing for a ā€œnormal, everyday couple,ā€ but I agree when thereā€™s also a power dynamic involved, it just makes me feel even more uneasy. Then you add in his comments about how he remembers being in his early 20sā€¦
His social media is a fucking mess. Someone else needs to take control ASAP. Especially if he claims he was moving it into a more professional direction. JFC, there are literal professional who get paid to do this; hire them.
I agree that he should be booked for, like, the next 2 years from this point, and thatā€™s a huge mistake that he isnā€™t. He canā€™t just seriously think he can fuck off to Fashion Week and this will all blow over, right? Right!?!?
I think we can all agree that Nicola is fucking perfection.Ā 
(Can you tell I have a comms background? Everything about how all of this has been (mis)handled has made me want to cry, scream and throw up - and not in the funny meme way. But seriously, how can his team bungle all of this SO POORLY???) Anyway, I have a lot more thoughts but Iā€™m now worried Iā€™ve flooded your ask box. Thanks for humoring me!
Thank you for taking the time to read all of the deep dives and your kind words!
The whole situation has been wild to look at from the outside. I could see so much hate going around from all sides and felt that maybe if I put everything together, people could look at the situation with clear eyes.
I think that Luke still has the potential to go places in his career and hopefully the situation that he has found himself in will help him. You know the saying "sometimes you have to hit rock bottom", this could be that for Luke.

Benophie wish list: Benedict and Anthony (PART 2: The Academy fiasco)
If you haven't read Part 1: Benophie wish list: Benedict and Anthony (PART 1)
This is such a complex plot, and I find myself going back and forth, like this:
I feel for Benedict because he really wanted to get into the Academy on his own merit. He wanted it to be HIS thing. And he was so happy, high as a kite, but genuinely happy.
I get Anthony was trying to help. I do. This was a pre-Kate Anthony, emotionally detached, traumatized, and closed off. He thought he was doing the right thing by ensuring his brother's happiness. I imagine him fist-pumping secretly when he heard the news and saw how excited Ben was. Can you imagine if he heard Benedict screaming at night? More to his credit, he never flaunted his donation to anyone, he was happy knowing Benedict got what he wanted.
However, Anthony helped Benedict secretly while he mocked him publicly. Calling Ben's sketches "doodling" and "pretty pictures" demeans his work. There's also this scene:
Tumblr media
From Benedict's pov, his brother does not appreciate nor care for his passion and talent.
This may have been normal sibling teasing, except that Anthony's personality and attitude didn't make the jokes land as such. When Ben teases, everyone knows he's being silly, he's not trying to hurt anyone. Anthony only sounds mean.
HOWEVER, I can see how frustrating it must be for Anthony to see Ben wasting his life. He's 26 YEARS OLD, acting like a 20yo. Anthony only sees Ben drinking and getting high in s2, which is why he is shocked when Ben recites the "What is it to admire a woman?" poem. This is the first time Anthony realizes the level of talent Ben has. At that moment, he understood, Ben is not a pretender, he genuinely believes poetry is truth. When Ant says "you should apply yourself more," he means it. Anthony is desperate to see his brother find a purpose and grow up.
The problem, again, is that this is the only time he showed admiration for Ben, and he exploited it. So, when he tries to convince Ben to stay at the academy, Ben doesn't believe him. Why would he? He paid his way in because his "pretty pictures" were not enough.
Then again, Anthony found him smoking and drinking at the Academy. How frustrating for him to see that Ben is not taking this chance seriously.
I also believe Ben was sabotaging himself. Anthony gave him the easy way out before he needed to prove himself and commit (Ben's commitment issues are not only about a romantic partner). Ben is using Anthony as a scapegoat in a sense, someone to blame for his failure.
Of course we did not see any resolution to this in s3, as expected. This is something that needs to be address during Benedict's season. I am so glad the writers understood that we needed a season where Benedict stayed as far away from art as possible. I didn't want to see him holding a pencil, not even seeing a painting.
Instead, we saw him helping Anthony.
Maybe this post is all over the place, but so are siblings' relationships.
Of course, Ben helps Anthony. Not only is it his responsibility as the spare to step in during A's absence, but they're brothers. He can't really escape that relationship, especially in a structure like Regency aristocratic society. So, he does the job (very well according to Anthony), fills his time with work, and pushes painting aside.
I think s3!Benedict was trying his best not to think about art and pretend he was fine without it. Meanwhile, Anthony was enjoying his honeymoon period and perhaps he was relieved that Ben seemed fine. I don't think either of them has forgotten the s2 finale though, but they're trying to delay a confrontation and a spill of feelings (men!).
I'm confident s4 will address the matter. I'm not sure how much of Anthony we'll see but I'm sure by the end of the season, the Academy fiasco will be addressed and Ben will be a successful, confident artist thanks to Sophie.
I'm not done with Benedict and Anthony. I need to talk about my hope for Anthony's involvement in Benophie and the ghost of Sienna.

Hi! Not an ask, more like a confession. I just really felt compelled to tell you that #RainbowRoad is the absolute best fan-created work iā€™ve ever engaged with, and iā€™ve been a fan of many things! You are an amazing storyteller.
I also felt compelled to reach out because my friends & family are perplexed. I am perplexed. Primarily because:
1. I started watching DTS. Excellent. Normal for me to try on a new Netflix showā€¦.mostly. But is it really? Sports? Me?
2. I casually check out streaming options for the real deal, because you know, iā€™m curious, and oh! Would you look at thatā€¦itā€™s almost the end of fall breakā€¦.
3. I subscribe and whatā€™s thisā€¦.I am absorbing F1. Like iā€™ve been starved for a sport to enjoy my whole life. Replays. Free practice. Fuckin Tech Talk.
4. Suddenly, Iā€™ve watched 3 seasons of DTS and a disturbing amount of F1 content and itā€™s COTA Sunday and iā€™m on the couch, surrounded by snacks, insisting that we have to watch the WHOLE qualifying session not just the highlights because we need to get a feel for everyoneā€™s headspace going into the race.
5. Post-COTA; We have decided Sainz is our driver to watch. Iā€™m also really intrigued by McLaren rn someone pls help. Weā€™re shouting as we watch live as Ferrari pulls a 1-2 and wow. Whenā€™s the next race?
6. Mexico City. MEXICO CITY. Sainz has been our man now for 10 days and forever. I suppose iā€™ll have to dedicate myself to Williams next season but I feel conflicted about that and WHY do I have an OPINION on that already. Who am I? Also can I watch the whole race again just tuned into Russelā€™s radio? Did he really ask mid-race for tea on Verstappenā€™s timeout? You donā€™t have to answer either of those questions iā€™m probably going look that up as soon as I finish writing you this manic soliloquy.
Iā€™m not saying that youā€™re to blame for this complex crisis of identity happening over here, iā€™m really not. I justā€¦.I know the difference by now when iā€™m transfixed by something thatā€™ll surely pass andā€¦wellā€¦when I find something that compels me to sit tight & take hold.
On second thought, yeah. From one internet stranger to another, this is your fault.
And iā€™m enjoying every second of it. ā™„ļøšŸŽļøā™„ļø
P.S. If there is going to be another #rainbowroad story I will be more excited about that than I am about GO3. This summer has been hard and engaging with your work has made it so much less so. Thank you ā™„ļøšŸŽļøā™„ļø
hello! thank you sooooo much. i'm excited that you've gotten so into f1.
couple of things:
1 - i love carlos. he is my favorite himbo. he is so dumb sometimes. all that boy knows how to do is drive but damn does he drive well! i have felt for a long time that he's a sleeper agent. he just goes under the radar. you should look up the circumstances of his first few podiums. some of his biggest achievements have been afterthoughts, sidelined by other drama in f1. for example, when he did all those crazy overtakes during the sprint race and ended up in p2, nobody was talking about it at all! drove me nuts. it is such a sainz thing to be winning races and still losing his seat at ferrari.
2 - williams is worth being a fan of. they are one of the most historic teams and are wccs! i know that's strange to think if you're coming into the sport now, but there are many, many reasons to love williams. the other cool thing about the team is their principal, james vowles, was part of brawn gp. since you're diving into dts, i highly recommend watching brawn gp on amazon prime. you will also develop a love for jensen button.
also, i'm sorry your summer has been hard, and i am glad i could shine some light for you. my summer also was rough, and i still feel like i am recovering. i do have a story in the pipeline. it's still very much in its early development so i don't know if i will write it, but it does exist in my head!

Hamefura LN11 Extra Story Translation (Part 5) (Final)
Tumblr media
I have started translating the extra story which comes with the special edition of volume 11 of the Hamefura light novel.
I postedĀ some notesĀ about it a while ago.
This part is the final Jeffrey's POV part.
Previous parts:Ā Part 1Ā Ā  Ā Part 2Ā  Ā  Part 3 Part4
~The Story of the 4 Stuart Brothers~ (Part 5)
Jeffreyā€™s POV
While walking alone in a hidden passageway inside the castle that only royals and a handful of people knew about, I, Jeffrey Stuart, was in very high spirits.
Because no eyes were on me, I was humming a song while lightly skipping.
Before long, I finally reached my destination and then knocked on the wall as a signal. After a little while,
Ian: Come in.
I got this short reply.
After getting it, I softly slid the wall in front of me and went inside the room.
The room was about as large as mine with mostly the same furniture and furnishings except they were arranged grandly. It very much reflected the personality of its occupant.
My little brother was sitting up straight at his neatly ordered desk. I called out to him.
Jeffrey: Hi, Ian. How are you doing?
Ian: There's not much change on my side.
ā€¦replied my first little brother, Ian.
It sounded a bit curt, but this was how Ian normally was.
Unlike me who was said to be exceedingly amiable, Ian had a slightly limited register of facial expressions.
However, it didn't mean he had a limited register of emotions. When he was happy, the corners of his mouth would go softly upward, and when he was sad, his eyebrows would go a little downward. It was oh, so cute.
Jeffrey: I see, then I am glad. Anyway, can we talk a little?
After I had said this, Ian sighed and closed the open book on his desk,
Ian: You'll still talk even if I say no, right? I'll listen, so make it short.
ā€¦he said.
Jeffrey: Okay, I'll try.
I started telling Ian about the happy exchanges I had with my little twin brothers over the last few days. Until a little while ago, I had been most worried about them since they mostly didn't talk to each other and Alan even seemed to hate Geordo.Ā 
And these boys had just recently started to have conversations with each other normally.
On top of this, the two of them had told me "Thank you for worrying about me!"Ā 
If I had to describe my feelings at that time, I was so happy that I thought I might have ascended to the heavens.
While I was excitedly telling the story, Ian was quietly listening, as always.
When Ian was born, when my little twin brothers were born, I, Jeffrey Stuart, had been so taken by their adorableness that I had vowed to protect them as their big brother.
But after that, my little brother Alan fell severely ill, which resulted in my mother constantly attending to him. In addition to this, the royal palace was also in chaos because the former king had died without designating an heir.
Following these events, we brothers were left in the care of our servants and got all scattered.
Because I was still young at the time, I couldn't do anything about this situation. I couldn't do anything but worry about my little brothers.
Our parents weren't the kind of people who had no love for their children, but this period seemed to have been really difficult.
They did their very best just not to let any dangerous-minded people near us.
Eventually, our father was enthroned, and we went from being royals to becoming princes and heirs to the throne.
Now sitting on the throne, our father purged the corrupted royal palace, and our mother helped him as queen. The two of them seemed to be considerably busy.
And while we were out of reach of our parents like this, the people who curried favor to us, scattered siblings, had created factions before I had known it.
Then I was set up for some kind of succession struggle that I had absolutely no desire to participate in.
As a result, even though we were born of the same father and mother, we all grew up separately and got thrust into a fight for the throne.
When I was little, I couldn't oppose the faction as they took extensive care of me, but as I grew older, I gradually became able to handle them.
I also became able to lose the escort following me everywhere.
Then I was finally able to go where my scattered little brothers were.
Geordo had grown up into an unchildish child with icy eyes.
When he was just tiny, he was extending his hand towards me with sparkling eyes, and laughing with a wide smile. He was a child brimming with so much curiosityā€¦ but there was no trace of this left.
Because our mother had constantly been attending to the terribly sickly Alan, Geordo had grown up with mostly no motherly contact, or rather no family contact. Because of this, Geordo was mocked as "The Forgotten Prince" and he had lost interest in other people.
He looked at me like he would a stranger, and even though we had hardly met each other, it made me sad.
Despite being eight years old, his fake smile was flawless. He already was like a noble walking through high society.
He seemed uninterested in childish games, and no matter what I would ask him, he would give me extremely adultlike and mundane answers. This pained me terribly.
Even when, one way or another, I showed concern for what he wanted to do among other things, his responses didn't change.
As for Alan, his eyes were the polar opposite of Geordo's as they were retaining violent emotions. He always looked irritated and in pain.
I knew right away that Geordo was the cause of this.
The imbeciles who wanted to kick Alan out of the fight for the throne were spreading contemptuous rumors comparing him to Geordo, and Alan had been taking them seriously.Ā 
"These rumors are just slander spread by the people who want to kick you out of the competition."
No matter how many times I told Alan these words, he obstinately refused to listen and kept intensely overreacting to Geordo.
Even though both lived in the same castle, they could barely look at each other.
I wanted to do something about it and thus tried to get my point across, but in the end, I couldn't do anything and rather got him to hate me as well.
And then, Ian. To be honest, I felt the most nervous while going to Ian's place.
Because Ian and I had been set up as rivals by our completely formed factions, I had been worried about him possibly seeing me as an enemy.
But the day I first took the hidden passageway to visit Ian's place, he readily let me in his room after I had stated my name.
Ian: It has been a while. Have you been well?
ā€¦he said.
I was so happy that I shouted "Ian~!" and hugged him.
But he pulled me off him right away, looking annoyed.Ā Ā 
Then, since Ian was way more friendly than I thought, I asked him if he found me unpleasant now that I was said to be his rival.
Ian: It's just what people around are saying. I didn't know how you were feeling about me, but looking at you, it seems like you don't see me as an enemy.Ā 
It seemed like Ian had also been wondering whether I saw him as an enemy. With this situation, it couldn't be helped.
Jeffrey: Far from it, I've always been worried about you!
When I honestly said this, Ian made a relieved face, andā€¦
Ian: Is that so? So you haven't changed since that time, long ago, when you enthusiastically said you would protect us.
ā€¦He said.
Jeffrey: Ian, you remember!
Ian was still two or so at that time, so I was surprised. Ian quickly told me this.
Ian: I don't remember the time just after my birth but I clearly remember things starting from a little while after.Ā  Along with how you were profusely doting on me.
Jeffrey: ā€¦Ian, you're amazing.
I was deeply moved by my younger brother's wonderful ability.
However, Ian quietly shook his head.
Ian: It's just that I have a fairly good memory. I'm poor at guessing people's feelings. So until you came to visit me like this, I had no idea how you were feeling about me.
After saying this, Ian told me little by little about what had happened while we were separated.
About how he had been trying at first to somehow have contact with me and our brothers.Ā 
About how he had no success with it, how he thought he might be able to do something if he gained more power, and then made great efforts to that end.
These didn't seem like pleasant days in any way butā€¦ Ian seemed to have been blessed with both a wonderful memory and wonderful people around him, and despite having slightly limited facial expressions, he seemed to have grown up into a straightforward person.Ā 
Even regarding the succession to the throne, he wasn't like me, reluctantly studying because the people around him forced him, but he was making efforts of his own because he wanted to be of help to the people of the country.
My little brother was so wonderful!
In that case, maybe I should just throw away my succession to the throne, butā€¦ I already knew that filthy and nasty people would then approach him for political power.
On the surface, I would pretend to compete with Ian and draw the filthy people towards me, thus pulling them away from Ian and my other little brothers.
It originally was something I had thought about before, but after talking with Ian, I decided that I would absolutely do this.
Of course, I would make sure that the serious and straightforward Ian wouldn't find out. After all, if he did, he would probably get worried and oppose it.
We decided not to act too intimate on the outside because of our formed factions and to meet like this behind the scenes from time to time.
Then, later on, all while checking up on Geordo and Alan, I kept sneaking into the castle's hidden passageways to secretly interact with Ian.
Most of the time, I would complain because I was so frustrated over not being able to do anything for Geordo's empty eyes and Alan's stubbornness, and Ian would quietly listen to me. But today was different.
The situation had started to completely change from around the time I heard that Geordo had gotten engaged, a little while ago.
Geordo's eyes had regained their twinkle, and soon after, Alan had also calmed down.
They seemed to have changed through the interactions they had with their fiancƩes.
I get it, little bros. Girls before your big brother, right? I felt a bit lonely, but it meant that you had become more adult.
One day, when I would meet them, I would express my gratitude to their fiancƩes.
Then, with them back to their original selves, the twins had come to interact even at the castle.
I was so, so, happy to see them this way that I called out to them without thinking. And then each of themā€¦
Geordo / Alan: Thank you for worrying about me.
They told me this!
Aaah, there was nothing happier than this.
I could talk about this for hours! When I passionately told Ian thisā€¦
Ian: Sure. I've heard that part three times already, so that will be enough. I'm fairly busy myself so let's call it a day.
After saying this, Ian cut the conversation short and pressed me to go back through the hidden passageways.
Jeffrey: Uuuhā€¦ But I still want to talkā€¦
After I had mumbled this, Ianā€¦
Ian: For the rest, have Lady Susanna listen to it.
ā€¦he said, mentioning the name of my fiancĆ©e.
Susanna knew about my love for my little brothers, so I could indeed talk to her, butā€¦
Jeffrey: Rather than listening to me, Susanna will completely ignore what I say and read a magic book the whole time.Ā 
Susanna Randall, to whom I got engaged a few years ago, was beautiful and extraordinarily brilliant, butā€¦ She was a magic nerd who basically didn't care about anything but her magic research. She was quite a peculiar girl.
The first time I had met her, she had declared to me, "I have no interest but magic research." To this day, it was still a nice memory.
Ian: ā€¦You seem intimate.
Following my story, Ian said this.
Huh? What part of my story made him think that we were intimate? It was the big question.
Then I felt like he was a bit jealous, soā€¦
Jeffrey: Ian, how are things between you and Lady Selena?
About six months before Geordo and Alan's engagements, Ian got engaged to a girl from a ducal family called Selena Berg.
I hadn't met her but I had heard that the Bergs was a fair and upstanding family.
As their daughter, she must be a proper girl, butā€¦ Come to think of it, I hadn't heard anything from Ian about his fiancĆ©e.
Ian: What do you mean, "How are things between us"?
Ian's face had become stiff. I said,
Jeffrey: Well, I haven't really heard anything from you about your fiancƩe, so I was wondering if you were getting along.
After I had replied with this,
Ian: ā€¦We are interacting to some extent. Just, I don't know what to talk about with her.
Ian slightly lowered his eyebrows.
This was his troubled face.
Jeffrey: Ian, you're not particularly bad at making conversations, right? You can have conversations with anyone without trouble.
Ian usually was the one listening to my talking, but it didn't mean that he, himself, was bad at talking.Ā 
Because he was a prince shouldering the expectations of everyone, he could skillfully talk and adapt the topic to each of his interlocutors.
Ian: ā€¦It might be the case, but in front of Selena, I can't seem to know what to talk about.
After he had said this, Ian's cheeks had become slightly red.
Oooh, this isā€¦! I can't believe it, the straight-laced Ian is in love!Ā 
And for the one he loves to be his fiancƩe, this is truly a joyful thing.
Jeffrey: Ooh! So this is how it is! Ian, you're finallyā€¦ I'm so happy for you.
It seemed like my little brothers were steadily growing up, which made me happy. Though, I also felt a bit lonelyā€¦
When I ruffled Ian's head, he got away, looking displeased.Ā 
Jeffrey: And so, Lady Selena, what kind of girl is she?
I was curious about the one Ian loved, so I tried to lean close and ask about her, but Ian looked even more bashful, andā€¦
Ian: Isn't that enough? Get out.
After saying this with an even redder face, he pushed me to the hidden passageway.
Still, when he closed the door, he muttered in a very low voice,
Ian: ā€¦Selena is incredibly cute.
ā€¦he said but I couldn't catch it.
Aaah, Ian was just too cute!
I wanted someone to hear about it. No, I wanted to talk about it. I wouldn't be able to endure not talking about it.Ā 
After that, I finally did as Ian had suggested and went to Susanna's. I passionately talked about how my little brothers were wonderful and cute.
As I had expected, Susanna mostly didn't listen and just read a book on magic, but even so, since I could somewhat talk, I felt lighter.
In this way, Susanna, who paid no attention to my talking that I couldn't have with others, was important to me.
To be able to get good fiancƩes like them for political engagements, I thought we brothers really were so lucky.

When I saw that you had posted Chapter 2 for YKIKR, something lit up inside of me. You absolutely deserve the praise you received for Chapter 1. It was delectable! And I knew that this would be just as delicious to take in. Dick Grayson is back in the building (aka my brain), and he's a welcome presence. Fun fact, but Saturdays are always blue to me, so this being posted on a Saturday feels so fitting because that's his color. (Also, I'm in awe that my ask about Chapter 1 is something you think about daily. But it makes me glad that I send these asks to writers.)
I love how we just see the Reader (who I'm dubbing DR, for Detective Reader, from now on) absolutely want to kill Dick for this. Because y'know what, I'd want to kill him too! He drops by DR's apartment late at night as Nightwing, all but confirming the theory he and Dick Grayson are the same, and yet this man is somehow awake, functioning, and presentable. That's evil to me. (Not in the normal evil way, but I mean, how can you be all three before nine in the morning. I'm only ever functioning and presentable before nine in the morning, I'm never truly awake until eleven.)
Sincerely, I would kick him and find a way to frame it as an accident. Just to frumple him up somehow, if that were possible.
Also, can we talk about this paragraph you wrote in Dick's perspective, the one where he thinks how, "It wasnā€™t that he objected to her as a partner - short of his family, she was possibly the best heā€™d ever met. Frankly, if she was transferred to Gotham, the bat signal would be turned on far less frequently."
LIKE HELLO?? I see that as an absolute win!! That is a wild comparison to make (at least to me, with what I know about the Batfamily), that's amazing! If DR were in Gotham, she'd be run ragged, but he's right. The bat signal would probably be turned on less frequently. And I love how he just....god, he feels so bright here. He's always been bright to me in a way that makes you want to be enveloped by the brightness. And that's what I read him as here, and that younger version of me is sitting right next to me, reading and feeling the same way. I know I said it last time, but you really have portrayed him so well. I may be older, but god does it feel like time had stopped and only now resumed.
Anyway, can we also discuss these sentences where you wrote about how Dick feels about DR's smile?? Because that floored me and made me kick my feet. That man is smitten, and I am **here** for it!! (Pretend that here was bolded, I'm drafting this ask in my notes app, lol)
But seriously, boo to McElroy. Awful man, I will not give you the time of day. (But as someone who has dealt with sexual harrassment, I think you wrote DR's perspective about him being back very tastefully, and it was realistic to me with how she would be feeling. Also Dick is gonna fuck him up at some point, I feel it in every fiber of my being. Even if he doesn't do so in the manner we, the readers, would expect. Because, the claws may not have receded, but they have relaxed. You've got something going on here.)
I love that Dick trusts her. He's only gotten an introduction from McIdiot (that's his name now, to me), but he trusts DR's gut. He saw her reaction to the guy. The venom he held back will intermingle with the words in his throat at some point (I'm typing this as I read), and they will make for a dangerous pair.
Moving on, I do want to say I laughed out loud when this line popped up: "Was it deceptive? Well, no more than anything else he did as Nightwingā€¦ well, maybe a little more.Ā "
Because honestly, yeah, anything he does as Nightwing is technically deceptive. But the framing of this line......okay, it reminded me of a literary technique we learned the actual name of in one of my lit classes (I'm an English major; I didn't know the formal name for the term, but I knew what it was): free indirect discourse. Obviously, this is fanfiction, and yada yada yada yah, but like. It's so funny, idk. I love it. (It is not my favorite/the best bit ((imo)), though!! That's at the end :) )
For a few seconds, I forgot this series had so much going on besides the romance aspects, lol. And I really enjoy when that happens, because it makes my reading experience better all the more. Like, they're mutually crushing on one another, and one of them is a superhero, and oh yeah, they're tracking a serial killer. I love the intermingling of ideas.
Also, he really did commit the cheesiest move known to history. Pebbles at the window.....Dick Grayson/Nightwing would. (I think both personas would, personally.)
Your style is so hilarious to read. I love the way your thoughts blend into the story, the way you weave funny little bits in. Your articulation, your word choice are both awesome (think of it in the way you'd see the word used before our time, like how it was used in the early 1900s). I love seeing you bleed into the story, even if it's just a little bit.
The fact that Dick still thinks DR doesn't know he's Nightwing is the best thing, to me. It's a great situation because he's misreading his own last name to keep a cover he's already lost. What a ham. I mean, he blew it when he asked abkut himself first, and now he's finding out how he's given away details of who he could be during his non-superhero time. And that's the second best part of this chapter to me, that he gets to see that if you paid close enough attention (like DR!!), anyone with a good head on their shoulders could piece together that he is (at the very least) a superhero.
DR seeing Dick as a corrupt cop (whether or not to make it so he doesn't catch on to her knowing his double identity) is a great detail. Because now there's this risk for him. He has to shut down that idea for her, but he can't make it obvious, he can't interfere too much as Nightwing. That's like giving an affidavit, confessing Dick Grayson was the first Robin, and now is Nightwing.
Did I want to howl in pain from the idea you placed in front of me that Dick Grayson would never get to tell DR how wonderful she is, that he'll never get to confess to her? Yes. But that's the beauty of this duel identity. Although, I'd like to point out that you wrote that, "heā€™d never feel that warmth of 10,000 stars directed at the real him", with the key phrase here being the real him.
AND DON'T THINK I MISSED THAT PRINCESS BRIDE REFERENCE WITH THE "As You Wish" THING. (Unless I'm reading too much into this, and it is not a reference, lol. In that case, pretend you did not see this.) That does so much here, and I know you know what you did with this. But know that I know what you did with this, and it makes me insane.
If I could, I'd reach through my phone screen and shake you right now. Oh my goddddddddddddd!!!!!!! Okay, onto my favorite/the best part (imo) before I go balls to the walls insane.
The best part of this chapter, to me, was when you wrote how Dick knew what it felt like to fly. And that DR made him feel that way, if not better. To have (as you wrote) "gravity become an afterthought" because of a person must be an exhilerating and fantastic experience. For that to be how Dick feels about her. After everything he's gone through - everything he's experienced - it's amazing. It does something to me, gives me this unknown feeling that rides my train of thought. I love it.
Anywho, I love this. Thanks again for writing and for being you. Have a great night!! Sorry for the length of this. (I know last time you said not to apologize, but I wrote so much, and I never know if people are in the mood to read this much about a reader's thoughts. Also!! The formatting of this worked!!)
Im going to freak out about this later. Because Iā€™m āœØwith peopleāœØ and canā€™t take ten minutes to write the reply this deserves. So see you in an hour or so.
Please donā€™t apologise because responses like this are my main motivation for writing, and they mean the absolute world to me.
Im at a shopping centre with my child sibling and im trying not to cry because then Iā€™ll have to tell this kid that I write about fictional men I wanna smooch.

I know exactly how you feel! All the LOA's campaigns look so much fun, and it's so hard to choose which one to watch. I'm currently watching Uprooted as well. My plan is to watch through season 1, catch the lives of season 2 when I can, and then watch season 2 straight through (because I usually end up missing the lives or constantly getting distracted). I also really want to watch Witchlight because it looks so good and I've heard so many good things about it. But at the same point, Icebound looks so interesting, and from what I've seen, Derek makes a GREAT GM, but Edge of Midnight sounds really good, too! It's impossible to pick just one because each campaign has so much love and creativity put into it, and everyone's characters are so interesting and funny! WHY ARE THEY ALL SO DAMN GOOD AT THIS?!?
EXACTLY!!!! Like, I'm so glad they put so much time and effort into these amazing campaigns, you can see the love and labor they put into them. But also, I can barely commit to watching an episode or two a day, which is hours of time. I absolutely love that they have their sessions, which clearly last much longer than the videos they post, but also, there's just so much content.
I was looking at the amount of episodes in each campaign and took a sigh of relief because the main few (Edge of Midnight, Icebound, Stardust Rhapsody, and Uprooted, even Curse of Strahdanya) all have, like, 20 episodes, which is so much easier than Once Upon a Witchlight, which is in the 50s now. I also really want to watch their older stuff, but my God, it's just a process
Im about 33 or so episodes in on OUaW and I've been watching maybe 4 weeks, inconsistently, but yea, it's just a lot. I'm glad to have it tho, because I am burnt out on normal TV shows and their 8-10 episode of maybe 40 minutes of you're lucky
I complain a lot because I'm a very VERY critical person, sadly, but I absolutely love everything they put out. So much love and happiness. And everything I watch makes me smile like a buffoon because they're just such wonderful people and I'm glad I get to be a part of their campaigns, stories, and their expansion into better things. :D
