__________

If anyone asked about your comfort playlist full of your girlfriend’s interviews, you’d deny it. Even as said playlist made an appearance in your watch history when she was away filming. 

It had been a particularly hard time spent away from each other when you gave in and made the list. Jenna was so busy that she barely had time to call or FaceTime like usual, not that your conflicting timezone was helping any either. You weren't getting any sleep, realizing just how much your girlfriend’s voice and presence had on your ability to do so. 

At first it was just one of her Wednesday interviews with Emma. Hearing both of them laugh and joke brought you back to the time you had a sleepover together while visiting Romania. It was comforting hearing her raspy voice coax you into a deep sleep. But it would always end too soon, just as you would start to drift off, they were saying goodbye and the video would end. 

So you’d search ‘Jenna Ortega Interview’, a hundred options popping up. You had your favorites and your least favorites. The ratings mostly consist of how much Jenna talked in them and the ones you knew she was excited to have done. 

One day after a week of not hearing Jenna’s voice from her phone calls you wanted your favorites to comfort you. But they were all scattered around, some from Wednesday press junket, Scream 6, her promoting her book, it was too many to just queue every time so you decided a playlist would be good. 

It’d keep everything together, no random videos to play afterwards, just all your favorite interviews in one place. You only did it as a convenience, not because you were desperate for her to be by your side, or anything. Just, supporting your girlfriend while she promoted her recent work. Plus you were tired, and fewer things to select so you could fall asleep to the sound of Jenna’s comforting voice was obviously the better option.

Maybe the playlist started to see the light of day however. Not only being played on your phone as it sat on the mattress next to you. But as the days went on you’d play it on the tv as you cooked, cleaned, or read a book. It basically became your favorite form of podcast without even being one. 

It started to become a routine, you’d come home from work, fix something to eat and watch a show you recently started, until you’d begin to miss her. Your fingers expertly pressing every button needed to enter YouTube and reach your playlist, as if it was second nature. 

It was one of those days, watching Jenna and Melissa die laughing at something Courtney said, the sound of keys unlocking your front door catching your attention. You perk up like a puppy hearing the bag of their favorite treats being opened. “Baby?” You hear the voice you’ve been wanting to hear for weeks and shoot up from your seat. 

Your socked feet against the hardwood making your trek to the door more uncoordinated than usual. “Hi, baby.” You say a little out of breath, a smile gracing both of your faces. “Hello.” She replies, cupping your face and pulling you down into a smiling kiss. You wrap your arms around her pulling her even more into you, your body buzzing with happiness. She sighs as she wraps her arms around your neck, tucking her head in the slope of your neck. 

“I didn’t know you’d be coming home so soon.” Not that you were complaining at all.

“We got a week off of filming and I wanted to see you.” Tightening her grip around your shoulder you feel her relax as you start to sway side to side. “I’ve missed you so much.”  You couldn’t be happier at hearing she felt the same. 

“I’ve missed you too.” Just as you couldn't feel any more at home, your heart sinks as you hear Jenna’s laugh, but it wasn’t coming from Jenna in your arms. No, it was Jenna prompting Scream months ago. You can’t believe you forgot to turn the tv to literally anything else. Jenna pulls away confused, you try pulling her back into you but she pulls away fully walking towards your shared living room. This is a great time to have the floor swallow you whole, you think. 

“Hey, why don’t we put your clothes up and get ready for bed. I’m sure you’re so tired and wanna sleep the rest of the day away. That sounds like a great plan, right?” Unfortunately, she continues on her way, towards the sound of her own voice. Your only comfort being the sly smile she gives you over her shoulder. She stops when she sees what’s on the tv and you sigh. You’ve been caught, and now you are gonna have to hide away for the rest of your life.  

“Did this just come on by itself?” You nod not making eye contact with her. “Yep, it just came on. I guess it got recommended after I watched the roundtable interview.” 

“Oh really?” You hum in agreement, your hands start to sweat as she looks back at you with a mischievous smile. “You didn’t just really miss me?” 

“You don’t even know.” That wasn’t suppose to come out, but it made her smile grow bigger. Her fingers reach out and grasp the hem of your shirt. Her smile and eyes softening at your admission, she pulls you in, her big brown eyes looking up at you takes your breath away for the millionth time. 

Your hand comes up and cradles her neck as your thumb rubs against her jaw bone. It’s quiet for a moment as you just take each other in. You lean down pressing your lips to hers. When you pull away her mischievous smile is back. “You missed me.” She singsongs, you lovingly roll your eyes. “Maybe a little.” 

She pulls you towards the couch, pushing on your chest until you fall into its pillows. “It’s very sweet that you watch my interviews but I can’t watch myself.” She says as she lays on top of you and reaches for the remote. You're so caught up in finally having her in your arms that you don’t realize what she's about to see. 

“You’re watching a playlist of my interviews?” She looks down at you, then back at the screen. “You made the playlist?” You groan, why didn’t you change the tv, why aren't the cushions swallowing you whole like you hope they would? Trying to hide your blush you hear Jenna giggle on top of you and her kissing your warm cheek. “Baby, you’re so cute. Do you know that?” 

“Shut up.” You mutter feeling even more flustered at her words and kiss. That makes her laugh more. You feel her hand slide up your body and find its resting place on your cheek. Pushing you to look at her, she smiles down at you. 

The overwhelming need to confess your feelings almost takes over but after a year of dating you wanted it to be her choice to say it without pressure. 

“I love you, Y/n. So much.” Relief and happiness floods through you, she said it and she meant it. She loves you. You can’t help but surge up, capturing her lips in a kiss, and confess the same sentiment you felt since you met her against her lips. 

“I love you too, J.”

thinking about how unlike Thalia or Bruce, who have messy love , never stick to 1 person, Damian has one lover. And sure as hell does he stick with them. my version of Dick ends up permanently with Kori so they're the first couple he sees where when they work, they're infinitely better when they're a unit.

Damian first sees this happen for a second when he fights alongside Flatline. He pushes it back, putting it on the fact that they have similarities in their fighting styles (which they totally don't btw), or the fact that it feels like working with Richard (something something dick is damians batman something else). Nonetheless, he pushes the feelings back.

then he leaves Lazarus Island and he thinks he'll never see her again (which is something he denies to be sad about, he's not *as* sappy as grayson, god).

it comes up with Bruce in the whole "where tf were you Damian" "on green liquid island", that Damian "met a valuable ally if befriend properly" and "her name is Flatline and she has blonde hair that parts in the same place as mine" and "she wears a leather jacket with spikes that's so-.. very practical for fighting." "also, she does this art on her face that makes her suit more..(blah blah blah)." and Bruce just knows. And he's worried, to say the least. but without talk about that he just assumed he was imagining it.

but then she shows up.

and blah blah we should know what happens it's been written already

what I want to talk about is how Damian should be the first of his family to find a staple in his life that he will always have to fight with if he needs. he's finally allowing him to open up to someone like how dick does with Kori. they fight better together, they're funnier together, they do chores better together, they flow. like a singular unit. and Damian gets it. and he holds on tight and will not let go no matter what

aaaaand he does go through challenges and they do have fights but they both know they'll always have each other to lean on no matter what

hi! i was wondering if i could request something like the hand headcanons, but maybe lips instead of hands? and maybe you could write for some of the class 1a girls too? if u dont usually write for the girls thats fine!

you like their lips

character(s) : yaoyorozu momo, ashido mina, jirou kyouka, himiko toga (bnha)

part two (contains ochaco and tsuyu)

warning(s) : minor spoiler for toga’s backstory, mentions of blood and sharp objects in toga’s too.

legend : [Y/N = your name] fem! reader, quirk not specific

headcanon type : fluff and the mildest of spice not nsfw (x reader)

note(s) : i write for the girls— but it’s just that i don’t get a lot of requests to write for the girls and stuff, but i’m glad i finally got one :,) this was sitting in my inbox for a while so i do apologize for the wait, but i figured that pride month would be the perfect time to post this!

also, i suck at writing toga— it’s one of my first few times writing her character. so, im sorry if i get it wrong, and write cringe 💀

»»————-　♡　————-««

yaoyorozu momo

i love her :,) pls marry me

anyways, her top lip and her bottom lip literally match— the ratio is perfect. i don’t think she’d wear a lot of lipstick, and her lips are already a naturally flushed color.

woman is RICH so.. she experimented a lot with lipglosses, lip balms, lip masks etc. so her lips are always moisturized, but she’s usually seen with peach flavored chapstick (no pun intended) and they’re almost never chapped or flakey.

her teeth are also perfect, and i don’t think she’s ever had braces so they’re just naturally straight tf

anyways, you REALLY like her lips. you always find yourself unintentionally staring at her lips whenever she’s explaining something to you, watching as each syllable rolls off her tongue smoothly. (but you try to not stare)

she’ll notice your staring halfway into the relationship, she’ll literally go insane if she doesn’t ask why your eyes keep flickering down to her lips

scenario

she’s doing it again, momo thinks to herself— and she tries her best to not think too much about it when she’s explaining the homework, and while her attention should be driven to what she’s talking about,

she can’t help it, but your stare is more than successful, especially when it comes to flustering her. from the way your eyes flicker down to her lips for that split second. or maybe the other way around, how you’d be affixed to her lips for minutes on end.

she’s not sure if you’ve noticed it, but.. she might go hysterical, insane at this rate.

“—is there something on my lips, Y/N?” her hand goes up to her lips, touching the corners of her lips. she’s looking at her own reflection in the window, using the window as a mirror. this question makes you immediately snap out of your reverie.

“oh, no.” you shake your head, eyes wandering down to her lips. she’s doing it again.

“are you sure?” concerned, she asks one more time. it’s not like your honesty, or dishonesty— would be life or death but, it would ease her nerves a bit. to momo, it feels like her cheeks could scorch at any second, burning an adorable red.

“maybe.. there’s something you want to tell me? you can be honest, i’d like to help— if help is needed.”

it’s your turn to feel flustered, bashful. at this point— you’re not sure how to say it without sounding like an absolute creep. you know that she’s adorable when taken aback, but when worded disorderly, you’re just signing yourself up for a mini lecture.

how can you talk about your affixation to your girlfriend’s lips, but with detail? maybe not. you don’t want to make her uncomfortable. you know that she’s adorable when taken aback, but when worded disorderly, you’re just signing yourself up for a mini lecture— or you’ll just outright embarrass her.

“your lips..” a hum resonates from you, while you’re searching for the right word “they’re.. pretty. the shape, the color— wait, is that weird? i didn’t realize that i stared that much so uhm.. i’m sorry. your lips are just really pretty.”

that shouldn’t be weird to say, right?

the grip on her pen loosens, and blood immediately rushes to her face, suddenly flustered by the confession— and the way you said it too, oh dear. however, she must say that she’s glad that you told her what was really up. honesty is an important value in a relationship, after all.

“n-no,” she shakes her head, as if it were a way to say don’t be sorry “thank you for telling me that, Y/N.”

she’ll start wearing a new variety of lip balm, just so you’ll have the opportunity of tasting something new with every new kiss.

her lip balm collection SKYROCKETS in numbers and sizes. she really could just make some with her quirk, but your girlfriend cares a little bit too much about the economy 💀

i think she already does this anyway, but when you guys are studying— she’ll kiss you whenever you answer something correctly. (but she’ll have the tendency to have her lips lingering on your skin a little bit longer)

a little spicy but, if she feels bold enough— she’ll most likely press wet and heated kisses all over your marked skin. specifically around your chest area because she doesn’t wanna embarrass you with the marks she left on your neck

overall, this sweet rich girl is a little shy at first— but she won’t be afraid to go all out (in private anyway)

ashido mina

those lips are really juicy

her lips are probably the plumpest and definitely the most kissable out of all of class 1-A, the second being ochaco don’t ask why

her lips are slightly darker, tinted in a naturally flushed color. and her bottom lip and top lip would’ve matched perfectly, but her bottom lip juts out a little more. regarding teeth, they’re pretty decent.

her lips are never chapped, since she’s always wearing something on them. she has a handful of butterglosses and lipbalms, but it’s obviously not a lot compared to momo’s large collection, it’s still a good amount

(but she has her favorites)

her glosses are either clear or very similar to her natural lipshade. she just likes it that way, and they’re probably have the slightest taste of cocoa to it.

you were naturally drawn to mina’s lips, they were always so kissable and soft. how could you not take glances at them.

and she obviously saw you take glances, even when you weren’t aware of it. mina was quite bashful at first, BUT she saw the opportunity to take advantage her s/o’s interest so ;)))

scenario

mina probably would’ve let this go, if it weren’t for the fact that it’s your fourth time staring at her lips.

you aren’t fooling anyone with your staring, and if she didn’t know any better— she would’ve assumed she had something on her lips that was distracting.

but nah, it’s just the lipgloss she bought the other day.

“..anybody home in there?” mina waves her hand infront of your face, snapping you out of the sudden daze you were put in.

“oh yeah— yes. what were you saying?” you swallow hard, trying to lubricate your dry throat. mina laughs at said action, it being almost comedic.

“i was talking about the gloss i bought the other day! and i asked you if you liked them,” she pokes your shoulder, biting back a smile when she sees your stare lands somewhere else out of nervousness— even though she’s certain that she’s more interesting than the artificial lights that sit above.

“but you seem a little distracted, dozing off like that, huh?” when mina grins, you’re certain that she’s caught your staring redhanded

“i promise i didn’t—” mina cuts you off, a bit too eagerly. “yeah! i know you didn’t mean to. but i just wonder what exactly you’re staring at.”

she knows, and she’s teasing you. you know she’s just doing that, just to make you say what needs to be said— it’s encouraging you in a way.

there’s no point in hiding it now, “your lips are—” you’re mumbling, so you could make a good guess that your words aren’t loud enough to her liking.

despite that, she replies accordingly “hm? what about my lips?” she gives a small smile, “is the gloss? what is it?”

“your lips,” you move closer, which catches her by surprise “are nice. nice is an understatement, actually.”

“really?”

you’re delayed by a few seconds, “really.” you gulp, and she exclaims something in victory.

“finally. i knew you actually liked the gloss!” mina sighs, as if she was expecting that all along, and that she was totally composed.

despite her having the upper hand in the situation, and despite her expecting something like this to happen, it doesn’t stop her from turning pinker in color.

expect mina to start bringing you with her whenever you guys go shopping for lip products (lip balm, glosses, etc.) it’s the first thing she does, because she’s a little shy shyer than she’d let on anyway.

she can’t help it ‼️ but she’ll immediately get the upper hand, once she overcomes her initial shyness.

gives you glossed kisses all over your face— you can’t even be mad at the sticky residue her gloss leaves on your face. after all, her pillowy lips just feel like heaven.

a little spicy, but she ALWAYS teases you by covering your eyes with one hand, and pressing her lips onto the crook of your neck. is super proud when you turn putty in her hands.

again, she’s a little shy at the beginning, which is why she played near the safe zone. but once she gets over that— the two of you have a BLAST with this interest of yours.

jirou kyouka

jirou kyouka 😻 she can have my hand in marriage too.

her lips aren’t the plumpest, but her lip shape is one of the best, if not— the best. her top and bottom lip matches perfectly, and her lips are compatible with her other outstanding features. regarding teeth i do headcanon her needing top braces in middle school. otherwise, they’re pretty fine.

owns one or two chapsticks, that are probably from the drugstore. kyouka doesn’t have chapstick on 24/7 like mina though, as she tends to just lick her lips instead 💀 but when she REALLY needs to, she’ll put some on.

as much as she likes the look of glosses on her, she hates how sticky it feels. with lipsticks, they’re pretty much the opposite— she hates how dry they feel. so, she usually opts for lip tints when she doesn’t want to look like an extra for the walking dead

anyways, you’re naturally drawn to everything about your girlfriend. from her hair, to her ‘cute when embarrassed’ personality, and even to her intricate ears. but, her lips were really something else.

it didn’t take too long for her to notice, your stares being a dead give away. and, for her to find out (courtesy to her quirk, it was an accident.) boy— was it secretly killing her. though she knows you like SOMETHING about her lips, she appreciate it if you told it to her face.

scenario

the only way jirou wouldn’t have noticed your series of staring, she would’ve been dense like a rock.

it’s just too bad. so much for staring so much, if you weren’t going to tell her right away, more importantly— straight to her face. all of this was practically eating her away.

kyouka’s currently situated on your lap, her head using your lap as a cushion, as she comfortably tells you about her day. you on the other hand— are focused on something else, and it’s not her story.

“get your head out of the gutter!” aspirated by your lack of responses, kyouka taps the top of your head with the back of your hand. not hurting you, of course.

“i was paying attention, lovely girlfriend of mine.” you smile, grabbing her wrist to gently fling it back at her— her cheeks turn red at the nickname

“okay, can you even repeat what i’ve said?” she tests, and which you shrug. “see, you were too busy spacing out. what’re you even thinking about?”

“hm, a lot i suppose.” you look down at her, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

“well, you can tell me y’know?” jirou smiles, which immediately falls “because here i am, telling you about my day. if i can do that, then you can tell me what you’re thinking.”

“your lips.”

“what?”

“your lips, i’ve been looking at them a lot.” you state in such a nonchalant matter, kyouka would’ve guessed you were just pranking her. but, no indication of you taking back your statement can be seen.

“wait, you’re serious?” with that, her cheeks turn red, “it’s not bad uh.. i don’t mean to shame you, but my lips aren’t the plumpest, you get what i mean?”

“they aren’t that’s somewhat true.” kyouka draws her hand up to retaliate, but you’re quicker. “but the shape is what i like the most. they just go with your other features with unison. they’re practically made for you.”

kyouka goes redder, “the shape, huh?” unable to withstand the embarrassment, kyouka slides off your lap— “gonna play the guitar now!”

but, she can live a little easier now.

after that event, she started taking care of her lips a little bit more— she even went out and bough a scrub (much to all of the class 1-A girls’ surprise)

gets a little shy, and tells you to ‘stop saying that out of the blue’ but adores your attention anyway. she can’t help it, she craves for it.

one day, she discovers what your favorite lip balm is on her— and she only used THAT one ever since. applies it even more when you guys are hanging out.

a little spicy, but if you push the right buttons— she’ll nip on your ears, humming a soft tune to get a reaction out of you

is really super bashful, but in the end— it helped her a lot with self esteem, and it improved how she saw herself. it’s a win-win.

himiko toga

writing for toga is the highlight of the day. slightly worrisome, but exciting ‼️

regarding size, it’s quite in between. her bottom lip is slightly bigger though— and her lips are either normal, or just bloodied due to her lips being constantly gnawed on 😨 we’ve always known that she had fangs though, and her parents have considered reshaping them into looking more ‘normal’ but they never actually pushed through it.

her collection is SMALL. like, one tube of nivea lip balm she stole from a convenient store, and it’s almost out. toga doesn’t desperately need it anyway, since her lips are kinda okay without it.

on the other hand, she enjoys the look of lipstick, and she wishes she could add more in her collection. however, her occupation as a criminal eliminates the chances of that happening. lucky for her, she does have 2 or 3 lip tints from 3 years ago she managed to keep, but she rarely uses them.

your girlfriend’s lips are very interesting to look at. how they’re naturally flush in color, due to biting. on top of that, her teeth was basically the icing on top of the cake!

the villain knew from the get-go that you were hiding something from her. and from the looks of it, it’s harmless to himiko anyway— like it matters, she’s desensitized. regardless, she’s determined to pry it out of you

scenario

“you seem a little occupied in there!” you feel a blade press against your forearm, but you were anything but scared. this gesture of hers was just himiko’s way of greeting you, and it’s not like a tiny blade did anything to evoke any fear in you.

“i promise i don’t mean to be,” you smile, and himiko draws her blade back— choosing to bring you into her arms instead.

“i asked if i could borrow some blood from you again, but you just seemed a little. too. distracted.” with each emphasis on the word, himiko pressed a kiss on your cheek— adding more pressure with every kiss.

“you know i’d say yes, why do you even bother on asking?” you feign annoyance, and she sighs, teeth latching on her bottom lip again— you swallow hard. “we’ll talk about that later. now, tell me what’s on your mind, or i’ll just cut you instead.”

you know she wouldn’t actually do that right now, as you are an essential part of the league, but the possibility is there though. you should start sleeping with one eye open.

“has anyone complimented your lips?” the question catches himiko off guard. of course, a part of her knew you felt something with her lips. the way you’d shiver when she’d kiss your fresh wounds was exhilarating.

“i don’t get any of those actually!” she stares at the reflection of her lips in the broken mirror, and she opens her mouth— getting a good look of her fangs.

“well, i love your lips. from the shape, to the color, even though they’re sometimes chapped, i don’t really care.” you admit, and you swear you could see himiko’s sickly blush spread across her cheeks.

“i’m pretty sure you know that already, and it might sound weird. wouldn’t be surprised, you just know wherever i’m keeping something from you.” himiko laughs at the last comment, and sets her blade down on the table.

“it’s kinda odd, but i get what you mean,” she says simply, “everyone has something they’re into. for me, that’s blood and my cute girlfriend. for you, that’s my lips!”

“and you.”

“i’d hope and figure.”

“i’ll tell you what. i’ll entertain your interest if you entertain mine, just gimme more blood! sounds like a good business deal, doesn’t it?”

and not very surprisingly, you agree. it does sound like a good idea.

himiko starts stealing more lip products from that point on, much to kurogiri and shigaraki’s distaste. dabi thinks it’s funny that himiko’s caring about her lips now out of all times.

gets super happy, and feels light as a feather when you compliment her lips. it doesn’t really help her state of mind, but she never got compliments regarding her looks before, okay?

just tell her what’s your favorite lip balm brand, and she’ll probably steal one tube— and abuse the hell out of it. it’s seen better days. sometimes claims she can’t find them, and says that you’re her substitute, and that you have to kiss her 💀

a little spicy, but bites marks, okay? will bite you anywhere she feels like she should— loves the little noises you make, and despite not being EXTREMELY observant, she’ll remember the spots that get you squirming.

at the end of the day, if someone’s going to make fun of you for your interest in her lips, it’s not going to be her. she’ll keep entertaining your interest if you entertain her interest back.

Heheheeeee

Now for the whole reason why I spammed your inbox

CRINGE LINKS

HAHAHAHA

I sent two decently written somber scenarios (?? Fic ideas?? I don't know wtf those were tbh)

Anyways, the whole reason why I shared my fairy!player concept was because I really like sprite (no I'm not done watching the LoZ cartoon, she's the only reason why I'm enjoying myself). So I imagine Player, instead of being a fairy in the games, is just a fairy like sprite (que the "gee link, your princess let you have two fairies").

You mentioned how you don't know how the whole player thing would work with Courage well neither do I so let's ignore the obvious plot holes and just say that the player was there, but couldn't intervene without risking the timelines and destroying the world altogether.

Anyways Courage thought he was hot shit being the only link with two fairies (or if record was not kept the only person with two fairies). Anyways one day, player disappeared yada yada yada until player shows up with Koridai (I know 'links don't know player is their fairy' blah blah what the fuck ever I'm tired). Now, instead of Courage having two fairies like before, townspeople are like "oh that's that links fairy"

(stoping this halfway, I'm going off the assumption that player is full sized, and dyr to the fact that fairies have magic (duh), they can change size at will, however being hylian-sized makes them unable to fly and therefore vunerable. Player can switch but doesn't really feel the need to unless sprite wants to hang fairy to fairy. Ted talk over)

Anyways, bringing back the "many are named link but link with fairy is hero link", because both Koridai and Courage have fairies and I don't see a master sword, people outside of Castletown are confusing the two together. As much as Koridai hates being compared/confused to Courage, he will absolutely claim to be the hero just to screw with Courage (and because it's funny). Since player is technically his fairy (they're not) and has magic, they will disguise Koridai as Courage just so Koridai can do dumb shit and make Courage look bad.

I also raise the idea that Koridai and player come into Courage's world during the episodes, and player either gets to watch the shitfest happening while holding on to Koridai via hyrule's equivalent to a backpack leash ("we can't intervene unless it's incredibly dire"), or Koridai and player just hang out until Courage is done (much to Courage's absolute pleasure, ganondorf can barely looks at the entrance before this fashion disaster is firing magic beams in the name of love).

I write all of this to say, I really want more Koridai content🥺, I miss my little meow meow so bad and I don't have creativity to make it (she says dumping content into inbox). I know we're talking about the chain smelling like eight bottles of ass in a can but can I can some Kori please 🥺🥺 (or sprite, why tf does no one talk about sprite I like her more than I like Navi tbh don't tell time) this is like what 5??? That's it in tied and it's been like an hour

THOSE BOYS WOULD ACT LIKE LITTLE SHITS AND I STAND BY THAT!

Also, I promise I'm not abandoning the boys! There will be more content! I just wanna get this chapter done first because everyone's been waiting long enough!

Same case for some other languages that he can also recognize and more or less understand bits of them but can’t really speak them. As you probably guessed, he’s learned most of these through his many journeys around the world.

SECRETS  :  All of the stuff in regards to the stone mask and all the events and incidents that came out from that (it was stated that the only ones who know everything about it from start to end are Jonathan and Speedwagon, the others who might know a great deal of it would be Straizo and Master Tonpety). He also tries to keep a low profile in regards to his homosexuality whenever he’s out of the slums to save himself some trouble due to the stigma at the time and the potential legal consequences, going only for the gay codes of the time (long hair, cleanly shaven face, colorful accessories, etc) so I guess that could count? Other than that, and in the verses that it applies, his stand mayhaps?? That’s what allows him to leap through timelines in the time travel verses (it possesses other abilities and skills but, since Robert doesn’t even know about his stand’s existence yet, he hasn’t trained with it and thus he doesn’t know about any of it’s abilities, not even about the time travel oof).

—— Physical! ♡

BUILD :     scrawny   /   bony   /   slender   /   fit   /   athletic   /   curvy   /   herculean   /  pudgy  /   average   .

HEIGHT  :   5’11”, close to the 6’ mark (181 cms)

SCARS   /   BIRTHMARKS  :    The most recognizable one is the scar marring the left side of his face (going from the top of his nose to his jaw), but he has plenty more scattered all over his body, some more visible than others, some larger than others. Most of them come from fights and his general criminal lifestyle, some of them even come from some of the torture sessions he’s endured as part of that (so it isn’t surprising that they were either caused by knives, gunshots, burns, shards of glass and etc). Most of his scars are located on his chest and arms, some more on his hands/wrists and fingers (hands/wrists and fingers mainly from when he was learning to use his buzzsaw hat), though he has a few more on his legs/thighs, lower abdomen, and a couple more on his back. In the main verse (usually set in the late stages of PB), he will have a few more from the events in PB −burn scars on his hands from the fire at the Joestar mansion, one on his shoulder from the attack he received from Jack the Ripper, an ice burn across his abdomen from thawing Zeppeli’s arm, and a couple more and not so visible ones on his arms from minor injuries (cuts) he got while fighting and fending off zombies−. Most of the “PB scars” aren’t too visible thanks to Jonathan (he used his hamon to heal Speedwagon’s injuries shortly after).

ABILITIES   /   POWERS  :  He’s able to tell an evil person from a good one by their smell alone. He’s a resilient man and quite a strong one, too (stronger than the average guy, as he was shown killing zombies using his brute force only and a sledgehammer). He's good at hand to hand combat, he’s also good at using knives and guns, and at wrecking shit with a sledgehammer. I also hc that he's capable of creating veeeeeery small amounts of hamon (this as a result of Zepp's "accidental" slip) if he really puts his mind into it. Due to his current limitations with it, his hamon can’t be used for fighting, but it does enhance his healing process, making it slightly faster than that of an average human (with some proper training, chances are he might be able to do more with it, tho). His stand, in the verses where he has it, can perform time travel, which happens at random at first (he gradually gains control on his stand once he learns about it and starts training with it). Due to stands being a reflection of sorts of their user and their fighting spirit, and as an extension of Robert’s own hamon healing abilities, his stand also possesses healing abilities that can be used both on himself and on others, though this requires some training prior, as the healing relies entirely on Speedwagon’s own life force and can be fatal for him if used carelessly at first (once properly trained, it won’t represent a real danger for him to use). Much like Robert himself, his stand is also capable of packing some punches and causing serious damage on it’s opponent despite his stand being more of a “support” stand rather than a fully combat based one.

RESTRICTIONS  :  He's mostly a regular human in the main verse, so he’s at a great disadvantage against stronger supernatural beings such as vampires and pillarmen, for example. As stated above, the amounts of hamon he can currently create are small and, thus are difficult −almost impossible− to use for combat (again, this can change if he gets some proper training). His lack of knowledge on his stand’s existence can also count as a restriction for the time being, as he doesn’t know about it or it’s abilities and, thus, can’t use it at his will for now (it operates mostly in an “unconscious” level at first, usually after getting triggered). He also tends to wear his heart in his sleeve when it comes to the few people he truly holds dear and considers special to him, so that can be used against him if he’s not careful enough.

—— Likes / Scents! ♡

FOOD  :    He isn’t really picky with food since he grew up in absolute poverty and sometimes went for days without a single bite of food or eating stale (sometimes even moldy) food so like… he’s cool with pretty much anything nowadays. He’s also an adventurous man, so he’s always open to trying new and even “exotic” stuff. Other than that, pastries are one of his top fave things ever (creamy ones mainly but not exclusively).

DRINK  :   Tea −citrusy/fresh types mainly like lemongrass, same with berry teas−. He doesn’t mind sweeter teas but, since he usually has them with the pastries, he prefers something more “sour” to balance things out. He also likes coffee, liking it strong, kind of sweet, and hot (just how he likes his men lol). As for alcoholic drinks, he’s all for beer and gin. He also enjoys some of the sweeter ‘posh’ wines Jonathan normally has at his home.

PIZZA TOPPING  :  As far as I know, pizza toppings weren’t as creative and “crazy” in the 19th century as they have been over the last few decades, so he’s only used to more ‘traditional’ stuff like variants of Pizza Margherita, for example. However, in the time travel verses/modern!AUs he will definitely try all kinds of pizza toppings (yes, this includes pineapple pizza as well as entirely sweet pizza toppings and so on) and actually likes some of them.

COLOUR  :    Purple (shades like those of his waistcoats i.e.), pink, greeeeeeenvert, black.

MUSIC GENRE  :    More than a genre itself, he enjoys and appreciates music that can make him feel something. Toss some pub songs there for obvious reasons lol.

BOOK GENRE  :     General fiction mostly. He also enjoys reading some romance novels every now and then whenever he gets the chance to get his hands on a gay romance one, either featuring two males or two females (he doesn’t find the appeal in “traditional” ones for a variety of reasons).

MOVIE GENRE  :    Non-applicable in the main verse. Time travel verses −if he even gets the chance to watch a movie− and even in a modern!AU, his go to genres would probs be similar to his book genres, lol, just add some comedy there but like, not the ‘cheapest’ and cringey kind of comedy.

SEASON  :     Autumn and Winter (harsh winters are a pain in the ass in Ogre Street, but he can handle them fairly well overall)

CURSE WORD :   Fuck / Shit / Bloody and variants of it (like Bloody Hell) / Arsehole / Wanker / Damnit / Bollocks, Ballocks and all of it’s variants / Bastard / Motherfucker / Zounderkite (victorian for “idiot” but with even harsher and ruder connotations than just using “idiot” lol) / Beardsplitter (one of the victorian words for “penis” xd). There are plenty, plenty, more but those are the ones I can think of rn. He comes from the darkest pits of the slums after all, so yeah... Lots of cussing can be expected.

SCENT ( S )  :    Sweet and masculine musky scent, mainly, with an occasional subtle note of gunpowder and/or tobacco depending on whatever tf he’s been doing. Maybe a vague note of blood if he just got out of a fight. Some vague vanilla too but that one only around the time when he lands a temporary job in a bakery in London.

—— Fun Facts! ♡

BOTTOM OR TOP  :   Top leaning verse. He only bottoms occasionally for serious/long term boyfriends that he genuinely trusts, partly due to how being a bottom was (wrongly) perceived as being submissive by most people, and how dangerous being seen as such can be in a place like Ogre Street if the word gets out (not to mention that there’s been people there who have given him shit just for being gay), and partly because he also prefers to top and likes it better, lol.

SINGS IN THE SHOWER  :   Yeah. He started doing it as a child as a way to keep his mind distracted from how cold as fuck the water he’d wash himself with was (he usually bathed in rivers or washed himself with buckets of water some maid forgot outside of a household and that he managed to steal). He’s become a lot more used to cold baths over the years so a distraction is not necessary anymore, however, he still sings or hums sometimes whenever he has a song stuck in his head or if he’s particularly happy about something (this continues later on in life as well,even after cold baths are no longer part of his life, so it’s a habit that he never actually leaves).

LIKES PUNS  :    He loves them! Lame ones, good ones, cheesy ones, silly ones, witty ones, dirty/vulgar ones, etc. Heck, even dad jokes can be found in his repertoire! Chances are that, if you come to him with a pun or joke, he will give you one or two (maybe even more) in return.

Sterek! Established relationship! Post-canon! :D

👀👀👀

i mean, i'll be perfectly honest, i haven't watched the entire show. back when i was in my prime (read: 12 years old) i stayed till season 3 but didn't even watch that till the end because i was bored (i was a few episodes in) i've, never rewatched it after then? my mom did and sometimes i'd see some interesting moments happen and wanted to watch, but im pretty sure at one point she told me "derek left" so i just kinda left in bitterness.

i don't truly know what happened in the show, and honestly just reading the synopsis for season 6 actively makes me cringe, and like i was there for scott being an idiot and blaming derek for murders, and a bunch of other questionable derek & scott moments and i would just like to re-write canon at this point in time, because i feel like making derek basically use teenagers and abuse them after what happened with kate is, tasteless? like i know some people handle trauma definitely and do terrible things, but i just- i feel wronged, maybe im projecting onto derek hale (i mean i am, but i feel like my point stands?). couldn't he atleast found people his age to manipulate? you'd think he'd have some feelings, but i guess that's too much to ask about a show with "teen" in the name?

also the whole scott seeing things as black and white without a single intelligent thought going thought his head at any point in time, with people constantly having to telling him that's he's being dumb, and then him being dubbed the "true alpha" is just??? i'm confused, but hey i only watched a handful of eps and didn't even finish em, so maybe im wrong about scott being a bad rep for himbos

there's also the amount of times i could see the writers struggle to try and make a twist, y'know that whole, talia's claws then? weird, where tf did they get it again? actually, i don't wanna know!

look at me, going on a tangent here for a fucking fic suggestion, i'm silly like that. anyway, i don't know if i can write a post canon fic, as my knowledge is canon and limited and i kinda hate it, and i try not to write stuff that i actively despise, for sanity's sake?

tl;dr i hate how the show treats some characters and also just some questionable plot, and would prefer to un-canon, thank you very much. canon can die in a hole and sterek are married

Random and Not So Random thoughts while watching Bridgerton: Season 1, Episode 1

I'm supposed to dislike the Featherington mama, right? I mean, I rather enjoy tasteless and tactless at times.

And I'm supposed to like the Bridgerton family? Name of the show and all.

Ah, the "rebel" sister. Not predictable at all.

I would be mad as hell....getting my back scratched up by tree bark, and the son of a bitch fucking me looks down at his watch....then proceeds to hurry up! Even his footman is like "this mf."

Ok mama, shade your hoe ass son then.

All these white dresses. I could never. I am feeling the feathers in the hair though.

Gawd bless these poor Featherington girls. I can't be the only one who cringes when things are awful and embarrassing. And the Queen. She is not here for the shits. AT ALL.

And here's our heroine. Ok, Daphne! You got the seal of approval from the queen. All y'all did was curtsy and bow your head but I guess you did it the prettiest. What a fucking time to be alive.

Gossip papers are legit the regency gossip blog/podcast.

I'm getting Little Women vibes from Daphne and Eloise....but instead of Meg, Daphne has MAJOR Amy energy (SHE JUST DOES. I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT). Eloise is a Jo, which needs no explanation.

Diamond of the first water. That's how I want to be complimented going forward.

Aww Portia....your hating ass! And of course the wicked sisters are hateful to the heavier sister. She's not even really chunky or blemished for them to be acting like that. Penelope has a round face and a very clear complexion....but it's Hollywood so I digress.

Portia and her mean ass daughters are eating crow. All that hating and shit and now the country cousin is a baddie.

Oh excuse me. I'm pretty sure an orgasm just rode in on a horse.

Oh he's a brooding drunk Duke. Yummy poison. And I think we just met the real Queen in this universe. "Your regrets are denied." You going to her party mf! You gotta meet Daphne somehow. Shit. But leave the flask at home. I cannot.

Hoe ass Anthony. Poor Sienna.

'Thank you, next' is literally the perfect song for this scenario.

Oh great, Anthony's hoe ass is a cockblock too.

Yeah, Mama, he stresses me out as well!

All her brothers can't be hoes, surely.

Y'all can't duck the goat! Get in that ass Lady Danbury.

Oooh shit. Baby Bridgerton brother spotted the country cousin!

Well hello Duke! That damn swarm!

Daphne is done with your shit Anthony. She just wants to have some fun and find a husband!

Gawd, now this creepy fuck. You should have stayed with your hoe ass brother.

Aw she's shaking on his ass. "Adieu." MF!

But he's not having it!

Run Daphne! Right into the Duke. What a fucking meet cute.

Oh, he's a cocky mf! And she doesn't even know who tf he is. Golden.

Of course he knows her hoe ass brother.

Yeah, mf. That's his sister. You looking curious now. Here we go.

Oh she's low-key roasting him.....and I think he likes it.

*me singing "Look look look look back at you for what?" I'm not finishing that line. I would always look back at that specimen of a man right there though.

Damn hoe ass Anthony, the carriage ain't gonna turn into a fucking pumpkin. Let her have some fun! He irks the fucking piss out of me.

Oh great. He's here to do more blocking.

Marina got fans!

'Girls Like You' is also fitting for this scene .

Poor Daphne. This creepy fuck about to shoot his shot again.

Damn, Portia. Quit being hateful to Marina, shit. I'm trying to like you.

And here's Berbrooke's creepy ass.

Eloise tried to save her sister. She really did. At least Hyacinth is here.

Aww Penelope likes Colin, but Colin likes Marina. This is soapy, yet delicious.

Anthony, you're not just a hoe, but a dumb hoe. I told y'all Daphne gave me Amy vibes. Marriage is not a game for her. You better tell your dumb ass brother!

Anthony and Simon have excellent chemistry. I want to know more about their history and relationship. They've obviously been up to hoe shit together.

Oh Penelope your jealousy is showing.

Lord Featherington looks like creep and I don't trust him.

Yay Berbrooke, another creep I don't trust.

The Shade Queen and the Scheming Queen.

The plotsky thickens. Them ladies plotting and scheming and matchmaking.

I mean Marina is obviously tripping because there's not blood on her sheets. Secret pregnancy plot point? Maybe.

Inviting the Duke for dinner and seating him next to Daphne. Y'all are neither slick, nor subtle.

Francesca saying what we're all thinking. Yes honey he does have a presence about him. Eloise dropping facts. He is a rake. And it's hot.

That look. Don't look so repulsed, Daphne. That man fine. Plus he's amused by your attitude.

Ok lil banter. Daphne stays shading the fuck out of him on the low. He snapped back this time though.

And Anthony looking all concerned that they're talking. Bye hoe.

And the scheme is unraveling.

Also, I'm going to look up a Gooseberry Pie recipe.

Anthony, you're really irritating me with this controlling shit man. Get his ass Violet. This mf really thinks he runs shit. Crush him mama! Crush him!

He really went to fuck her one last time and then kicked her out. He's literally the worst! Fuck Anthony. Fuck him with a cactus.

The bloody corset marks are a very fine detail, indeed.

Penelope, you cutie. I like the pink!

This raggedy bitch! That's why Colin told you no, HEAUX!

The swarm.

Ok Duke and Daphne. I see y'all seeing each other from afar.

The maid spotted the non-blooded sheet. Now sheet gonna hit the fan.

*It's electric! Boogie woogie oogie!*

Damn it all to hell, Anthony. Just when I think you can't get worse, you fucking do! You really out here PROMISING Daphne to fucking Berbrooke. I get that the Duke is your fuckboy homie and all but this mf right here is straight up creep. Anthony.....sit on a cactus.

Aw Marina, you busted boo. All the clapback came with a slapback. There is a nuance to Portia I can't put my finger on. Its why I can't hate her even though she's been pretty awful.

Daphne trying to take a beat and this creepy fuck shows up! Oh he went full fucking creep mode. Is he really trying to force himself upon her?!

Have no fear, the Duke is near...trying to be captain save a hoe, but alas the hoe saved herself. Daphne knocked that mf clean out! And the Duke is impressed! This looks like the start of a beautiful situationship.

Daphne gotta blow this popsicle stand before someone catches her alone with 2 men. One according to the Duke. He's got funnies.

Did that mf just propose while unconscious? Berbrooke begone, shit!

Amy...I mean Daphne still dropping knowledge about the lack of options women in that era had. I rather like Daphne.

The Duke likes her better without all the fans. Hmm.

Oh here it is.

Yes pretend to be lovers. That always works out well. No one ever catches feelings.......said no one ever.

I mean y'all are hot and this is what I came here for, but still.

See, situationship.

They're convincing because they're only pretending to pretend. I cannot with these 2, already.

[ayeun]

the only person I respect in Bling Empire is Anna (spoiler alert up to ep 5)

Anna - a queen. stays in her own lane but people keep going into hers and testing her. she’s confident, genuine and nice, expects nothing in return and actually has manners. gives sound advice and wisdom and living her best life.

Kane - on thin ice. i love his unfiltered commentary and social intelligence/awareness but hate the fact he’s a shit stirrer and enables/supports bad decisions knowing the consequences. ofc, the show wouldn’t be what it is without him planting those seeds. he’s v smart on who not to cross. honestly he reminds me of some people in high school i’d never want to befriend LOL..

Kevin - big dumb hetero energies. honestly i don’t think he’s as “hot” as people make him out to be. there’s this look on his face that makes me think “oh this guy isn’t smart”, and he truly isn’t. his face KINDA reminds me of an Asian Joe Rogan lmao. i think the thing that makes him the least attractive for me is him being a horndog and making inappropriate remarks in front of Kelly AND Andrew(no sympathy for Andrew, but who tf says they’re gonna fuck someone’s gf in front of them???) the whole salsa thing was hard to watch because of how fucking CRINGEY it is of how he attempted to dip and kiss Kelly like 3+ times. get a fucking clue, dude, and give her some space?? also hate Kevin’s FAKE vibes w trying to get on everyone’s good side to keep these rich people friends in his circle. Kevin’s supposed to be relatable to the “poor audience” but Kevin has a net worth of over $10M, which is double Kelly’s. yet this mfker pretends to be poor. also him defending Anna and then quickly making it up w Kim even though she still hasn’t apologized for  the shit she did. it kind of feels like Kevin’s shooting his shot at all the “rich and hot” girls just so he has something to go off of and start a relationship w them after this all ends.

Kim - hate her. not only did she invade the space and privacy of someone who graciously INVITED HER OVER AS A GUEST, but she won’t own up to what she did wrong even when politely given the chance to. that shit’s on camera what you did, just own up to it?? also her doing shit bc “haha it’s for the camera” and chucking Anna’s shit out the window. why not just remove yourself from there, bitch? also i can’t stop looking at the bad/unnecessary contouring job on her nose and her face looking like she got an ig filter on it. girl just do ur smoky eye and call it a day. you actually look worse with contouring!!!!!! she’s also got those fake vibes and pretending everything’s cool with everyone when it’s actually not.

Kelly - sure whatever feel bad for her for being in the toxic relationship, but also this bitch leading Kevin on KNOWING that he likes her by accepting going to salsa with him and entertaining his fantasies by responding back. Just say no?? tell him to fuck off??? you’re rich you can distract yourself with thousands of other things and with other people. the feeling i get of WHY she wants to keep dating Andrew is to have that connection to a “well-known actor”, that she’s dating a celebrity, and  that he’s white “to boot”

Christine - hate her fake ass “philanthropist” shit. the reason she’s throwing these events is just to boost her social status/standing amongst the rest of the rich people and showing off her “generosity”. the whole seating drama, inviting Anna over convo was cringe all over. the name dropping and then the trivia? typical holier-than-thou attitude lmao. people who try to flex their knowledge and then not know wtf they’re talking about themselves is just EMBARRASSING. i felt bad for her one point on the getting pregnant thing but then i thought to myself. wow, fuckin bitch. hope she really does have to take care of 5 children in the future but that should be okay for her so that she can brag about having 25th generation Song Dynasty princes and princesses. also her comment towards Cherie was so awkward. “woww you guys are not married and u got kids??? id get shamed for that w my family!” ALSO Baby G’s celebration..there was a fucking ballpit that SHE PUT in there and she gets ANNOYED bc Anna, whom she invited, jumps in and has fun?? LMAO lord...

everyone else i didn’t write about i don’t really care about enough to / they didn’t have enough screen time for me to truly judge

[roccinan]

1/? simply because you have the most galaxy brain thoughts ever,,, what do you think would've happened if they waited until s5 to reveal sergio and andrés were (half)brothers?

i do know that when my fam started watching lcdp at first i was so put off. like i watched ep 1 and the prof creeped me out. ""berlin"" creeped me out. e v e r y o n e creeped me out. and i was cringing so hard becz of the short lived romance angle with alison parker. i literally did not watch s1 at all xcept for like sneak peeks. highlights being the scene where berlin discovers monica is alive and does his dramatic door by door thing? that was so SUSPENSEFUL even tho i had no idea what was going on. DOMINGO DE RESURECCION remains forever iconic.

2/? And OF COURSE the group bella ciao dance when they hit earth (hahah i thought the banda were actually like a "found family where they all love each other LOL") i am a SUCKER for found family. but anyhoo when i properly got intrigued was s2 when tokyo was kicked out (the music from that scene is still my favourite) it's just so dramatic..!! why am i telling u all this again? right, i haven't slept a wink and it's nearly 7 am pls forgive me if these rambles make no sense. i have a point with this.. i'm going somewhere

RIGHT. so when the fam actually rewound the ep cz i wanted to know WHY berlin did that (didn't fully realise how batsht crazy he can be), the russian roulette scene played. and pedro's acting. MAN. and like just that ep they made a point of showing us these flashbacks where sergio and andrés hug....

Hi anon! Thanks for stopping by- sorry took me a while to get back to you, will do my best to answer this string of messages (got all 4 parts)! Glad you like my thoughts XD

Firstly, I believe Andres/Sergio would be the biggest LCDP ship if the writers were evil enough to wait until s5 to reveal that they’re brothers asdfasdf. They’re already the two most popular male characters anyway. 

It’d be especially crazy because it’s not like they tell the actors these things beforehand either. So that means there’d probably be a Serdres vs Berlermo vs Serquel fight every 5 minutes. I mean, even if not everyone agrees on everything in the lcdp fandom, it’s the most “peaceful” one I’ve ever been in because no character really gets in the way of any other ship (like even with helermo and berlermo there’s no true conflict since Andres is dead). But with Serdres in the mix?? CATASTROPHE. Everyone out here writing essays about how much of a bastard/bitch/homewrecker/motherfucker that Andres or Sergio or Martin or Raquel is. Never a moment’s peace!! so basically, a regular fandom lmao.

Then when we find out they’re brothers, it goes from catastrophe to Apocalypse. Suddenly serquel and berlermo have the upper hand. Everyone would double down and harass the crew/cast into whatever’s going on.  Plot-wise, everything is the same though, just without Andres calling Sergio “hermanito.” Fandom however, would be a minefield! And I’m glad that’s not the case because I’d probably be an unfortunate serdres shippers XD No joke, my mother and I thought they were a couple in S1. So bullet dodged!

Secondly: haha, everyone creeped me out in S1 too, especially Berlin, I hated him, but thinking back, I think I mostly hated the fact that I didn’t hate him as much as I should have. I’ve made peace with it now but oh boy, was he a controversial figure in my head. I actually like the professor on sight though! IDK why, maybe because I thought his plans were cool or because of Alvaro’s delivery. I was afraid of an Alison Parker romance thing too- like, I do feel like she had a storyline that got dropped, but that part was quite cringey and overall unnecessary to the plot. Same with Ariadna, which was even cringier and even Less necessary to the plot. 

Domingo de resurrecion was iconic though yes! And even with all that said, I genuinely enjoyed parts 1 and 2 because it was so different from anything else I’d seen. Not content wise, but maybe tonally? IDK, they were just really bold with a lot of things, like being objectively unafraid of having the protagonists (plural because all of them did LMAO) do objectively shitty things. Really kept me in suspense from beginning to end! 

I’m usually a big fan of found families too! The funny thing is, then banda never struck me as a “family” until season 3. In 1 and 2, I was wondering what felt different about this show; then it hit me that these people remained colleagues to the end. Like, they backstabbed each other (repeatedly) and everyone was quite selfish, and only the bonds that were already there stuck. They were the opposite of a found family LOL But I think by S3, they went down the found family route and I didn’t mind because it makes quite a lot of sense for them to feel that bond after the Mint heist and almost dying/living together (and having witnessed 3 deaths together on the team). But I still doubt Berlin and Palermo were ever really part of this found family, with good reason XD

LOL the scene where Tokyo got kicked out is also among my favorites!! It was so funny and dramatic, and it was like, wow we can go anywhere with this now! Don’t worry- your rambles and thoughts are always welcome :D

I’m rolling over how you watched the Tokyo expulsion scene before the Russian Roulette scene haha. Also yes, PEDRO. Berlin may have been “controversial” to me at first, but I became Pedro’s fan from day one! Also the Hug is probably what made me like Berlin (despite my determination to hate him rip) in the first place. 

3/? ... and like now that i think about it... tokyo had real guts huh. like she KNEW berlin was close enough to el prof to know his name (fhshshs imagine if she'd heard andrés saying 'hermanito' it's unrealistic that she didn't TBH. i mean obviously they decided to make them brothers only towards the end but like in canon universe. how tf did andrés de 'i raised my bby brother since he was 12 and i'd actually die for him and his stupidly brilliant plans' fonollosa go 5 months without slipping up once and calling sergio hermanito. or like,,, i like to imagine sergio kinda gave him lots of leeway(?) sergio's a lil oblivious too but like i'm sure half of it is.. that's my dumbass older bro shut up i'm not being partial you all have city names .. andr-berlin, pass the salt. like OOF. + sergio also knew his big bro was dYiNG so like. i'm sure they were sneaking in some quality time (i hope they did 😭 gosh imagine if sergio really did not ever consider the possibility of andrés dying in the heist so he'd tell himself he needs to perfect the plan now & anyway he'll have enough time to spend w/ his brother post heist in philippines. and then ... that happened :/

Tokyo has guts in place of braincells you bet that she’d do something like this, consequences be damned XD I also think it’s unrealistic for Andres not to slip up, but I have a feeling nobody besides Tokyo really tried to spy on them in private. I headcanon that Andres instead slips up and does things like ruffle Sergio’s hair or adjust his tie when other people are around. I also think Tokyo was convinced that they were a gay couple when she saw them hug XD And if Sergio never went on to tell the banda that Berlin was his brother, everyone would be giving Palermo such awkward looks after Nairobi accused him of being in love with Berlin LMAO. 

I agree! I also imagine Sergio giving Andres leeway because he’s just so used to interacting with his brother that way haha. So either he’d go out of his way to ignore Berlin in front of everyone else or IDK, borderline telepathically communicate with him. Not even “pass the salt” has to leave his mouth- Berlin just puts salt into his food and cuts it up for him, in front of everyone who’s just staring like O.O

I actually do think Sergio never considered the possibility of Andres dying in the heist because he was just that confident in his own plan. Plus, Andres was probably the one person he expected to survive. And a lot of it has to do with Sergio’s attachment to him + Andres’ own habit of downplaying any illness/injury over the years, which I think is safe to believe canon. He was really in no condition to be in the heist, let alone lead it. Just the fact that he needs to take those injections is a big sign that he shouldn’t be there, but Sergio didn’t catch it because he’s human and blinded by faith :’) So yeah, I think Sergio was planning to spend proper time with Andres in Palawan and at Toledo, they just settled for those little moments by the fireplace. 

4/? what always also just GETS me in the feels is that el prof was shown to be this in control creepily calm dude who is miles ahead of everyone. + in the 1st Toledo class itself we see how detached,, like how impersonal he is, how professional - choosing frickin CITY NAMES?! no 'personal relationships' ? (after recruiting his older brother, a father son pair, and war cousins... oh sergio 😂 he's such a frickin nerd and i love him) but like the earlier seasons really emphasised how robotic and down right COLD he can be. it still sometimes bothers me that he put the button in the car. he lead the police to his own damn brother, his blood, who took care of him and adopted him and was terminally ill and like - UGH i try to rationalise that sergio is that cold and unbothered. or that he has strict morals. but it still bothers me becz that button really sort of tipped andres' already unstable sanity. like andrés tells denver someth like you've robbed my future and after that he just seems so much more suicidal and accepting that he can't get out of the mint alive - WHY SERGIO WHY. I KNOW THAT AT THAT POINT YOU BASICALLY DIDN'T KNOW ANDRÉS WAS GOING TO BE YOUR BROTHER YET BECZ IT WASN'T WRITTEN IN THE SCRIPT BUT WHYYYYY

That’s so funny to me too LMAO No personal relationships, then he recruits these guys. Sergio, hello?? Also can’t forget how he just recruited his own girfrleind in the second heist too. Buddy! Love this nerd.

I don’t think that cold aspect of Sergio went away in later seasons either; he just had more opportunity to show a more open side of himself + without Andres, he had to metaphorically leave his comfort zone without a safety net. But in earlier seasons, he really did seem heartless at times XD Then again, we can argue that the same goes for Andres.

To be fair, I didn’t feel sorry for Andres over the button thing lol, but once the brothers reveal happened and all of Alvaro/Pedro’s headcanons came out and we know everything Andres did for Sergio, it makes what Sergio did REALLY harsh. We really just have to explain it through Sergio’s strict morals and him believing this to be the best non-fatal punishment for Andres, who at that point had convinced him he killed a hostage. And because he knew the television interview was coming up, maybe Sergio assumed Andres would use it to “clear” his name anyway. And empathy isn’t one of Sergio’s strong suits either, so through that lens, I can rationalize it.

Also it was lowkey funny to me how Andres was there like DENVER MUST DIE until he found out Sergio put the button there, then he was like “oh hermanito, you and your practical jokes <3″

Still, like you said, Andres and Sergio weren’t brothers yet at this point. They were probably supposed to be lovers lmao and had a dysfunctional Hannibal Lecter x Will thing going on. But because they made #hermanos canon, that button moment just feels very out of place now, especially given how much the two genuinely love each other.

Guess we could also say that Sergio’s just generally kinda bratty with Andres XD Like, he knows no matter what, Andres would forgive him anything. That’s how I see it anyway!

its been. nine. montsh im SO SORRY GUYS LMAO

for those of you who dont know what the dumbest po3 au is, click this link

for those of you who have not read the summaries for power of three, part 1 - part 2 - part 3

alright!!!!!!! dovewing time

the fourth apprentice

the book opens w/ ivykit and dovekit in the nursery. ivykit suggests going out to explore the territory and dovekit is like “wow. that sounds like a fantastic idea ivykit you are so smart"

whitewing says No Absolutely Not, and leaves at some point to go make dirt. they sneak out and not 5 minutes later they get lost. dovekit gets blames ivykit for suggesting it and they get into a fight. they both get really mad & dovekit runs off. because shes like a stupid 2 year old gets distracted, rams her head into a rock and passes out. rip dovekit. she wakes up and sees a fox kit coming towards her. she screams.

her head hurts and shes tired and now shes going to die. out of nowhere a huge cat beats up the fox and scares it away. dovekit passes out (again)

when she wakes up, she is next to a cat messing with a bunch of weird plants. the cat sees that she woke up and introduces himself as littlecloud. he asks what her name is. “dove… dove…?? i dont know” says dovekit.

he asks her how she got there, and if she has any family. she does not remember. so littlecloud tells her she’s gonna have to stay here for the time being. he asks her if anything hurts, and dovekit says she thinks may have hit her head.

he gives her some of the weird plants and she goes back to sleep. when she wakes up her head has stopped hurting and she feels a lot better. she gets up to go walk around and is immediately introduced to the tawnyspawn.

tigerpaw is stupid and friendly (and hellbent on being her future best friend). dawnpaw is obnoxious and a bit (read: extremely) condescending but interested. flamepaw is nice and also the only one with half a braincell.

they take her around and introduce her to the rest of the clan. she sees blackstar and is like. “im pretty sure thats my dad” tigerpaw gasps. flamepaw and dawnpaw are like. “What.” “he saved me from the fox im pretty sure thats my dad,” says dovekit

they go harass blackstar. dovekit follows him around like a puppy and the tawnspawn follow her. he has this train of literal 2 yr olds trailing after him and is wildly unhappy about this development. russetfur is also definitely siccing the kids on him to make him mad.

dawnpaw gives dovekit a passionate speech about the clans, but mostly how evil riverclan kicked completely innocent shadowclan out of their home, and how shadowclan has to set everything right and deliver justice to those cringe fail fishheads, or something.

a few days later the tawnyspawn are off doing their own thing and dovekit goes to see whats going on. dawnpaw tries to shut tigerpaw up but he spills the beans anyways. “we’re going to attack riverclan on a Secret Mission so that we can win back shadowclan’s honor and become WARRIORS so you cant tell anybody”

dawnpaw sighs. “dovekit this is for Big Kids Only, so you cant be here.” flamepaw is trying to talk tigerpaw out of doing this in the bg but tigerpaw is being stubborn. dovekit is sad about it but goes back to sulk in camp (and to harass her new dad).

a few hours later tawnypelt runs over to blackstar and is like. “blackstar my children are missing nobody knows where they went”

"oh!! they went to go attack riverclan to get back shadowclan’s territory!” informs dovekit helpfully.

“what.” says blackstar, tawnypelt, and russetfur in unison. the sky immediately opens up and starts Pouring. tawnypelt freaks out. dovekit is like “why cant we just follow the sound of their voices??” but everyone ignores her bc they think shes just being stupid.

“Fine!! ill just go find them on my OWN” says dovekit, following them by the sound of their voices (theyre proally arguing over something stupid).

now four of shadowclan’s children are missing. “you brought that kid here so you get to deal with her,” says russetfur. blackstar sighs dramatically and goes off to find his new child.

dovekit runs into an old man cat. “whatre you doin here??” says old man cat. “im looking for my friends!! whats your name :0? im dovekit!!” “my names purdy!”

blackstar shows up and is like. who tf are you. “this is my new friend purdy!!!” says dovekit. blackstar doesnt even know how to respond. “look we’re going to go back to the camp right now and we’re not taking this dude with us.”

dovekit is like “??? no??? we have to get my friends theyre right over there??” she says pointing in their direction w/ her tail. blackstar is ready to cry. so blackstar and purdy follow dovekit as she leads them closer to riverclan territory where they hear the tawnyspawn screeching like banshees.

they run over and find several cats w/ the tawnyspawn who are pinned down. “if you breathe in my direction ill kill all three of these children,” says a snotty dude.

“who tf are you” says blackstar

“im darktail you insolent snot,” says darktail.

one of his cats grabs dovekit and blackstar snaps. he lunges at darktail while purdy beats up the dude who snatched dovekit. the tawnyspawn take advantage of the moment, escape, and dogpile the other cats. its a disaster.

darktail swears revenge on blackstar till his dying day or something. nobodys really paying attention to him at this point. he runs off w/ his crew. “alright then” says blackstar. this has been a really weird and long day for everyone. blackstar wants to leave purdy but all the children immediately start crying. they bring purdy home.

“holy crap!!! purdy!!!!!” says tawnypelt. “why are you here??” but then she sees her children. she and rowanclaw give them a very stern lecture about Not Running Off Without Telling Anyone (in which tawnypelt is a massive hypocrite but to be fair god told her to)

in the meanwhile, blackstar asks dovekit how tf she knew they were there. “i could hear them, Obviously. ???? cant u not???” blackstar just looks at her. dovekit realizes that probably not everyone shares this ability. blackstar shoos her off and calls a meeting w/ the senior warriors.

dovekit goes off to bother purdy for stories and play w/ the tawnyspawn. nothing particularly interesting happens. blackstar and russetfur call her over later and start assessing her abilities. its only slightly a disaster because shes wildly distracted 80% of the time and her powers are unwieldy bc shes a kit.

cue training. there is a lot of trial, error, and tears (on both sides) but it works out in the end (mostly).

time skip. its been a few months. dovekit becomes dovepaw and blackstar mentors her b/c of her powers. at this point shes gotten control of how to pick out numbers, locations, troops, etc. basically she is a living radar.

blackstar calls another meeting w/ the senior warriors and afterwards calls a clan meeting. “alright losers we’re going to take back our territory and kick riverclan’s butt”

they go over the clan w/ all the cats and begin the trek home. another time skip because that takes a while and nothing particularly interesting happens.

when they get back, the clan stays outside the border while blackstar has dovepaw do a sweep of the territory. she finds a patrol led by a black cat named reedwhisker. blackstar picks a patrol out and they go to ambush the riverclan patrol.

the shadowclan patrol takes reedwhisker + the patrol hostage, but lets one go to tell mistystar. mistystar takes a patrol and comes over. “if you dont give us back our territory i will kill your son” says blackstar. mistystar is like “bro. i dont even want your stupid crusty territory anyways. screw you.”

she takes her son and the rest of the patrol and leaves. another win for shadowclan, obviously. maybe they have a party idk. end of book.

fading echoes

cinderheart has not been doing well. she’s been doing really badly, actually. her best friend died and she blames herself. she’s still grieving and continually lashing out at everyone around her. poppyfrost and honeyfern attempted to be there for her but after the continual rebuffs they decided to just give her space.

unfortunately cinderheart. doesnt have any other friends in thunderclan, so the only person she can talk to is lionblaze. unfortunately theres only so much he can do from windclan, so mostly shes been just been going into a downward spiral.

ivypaw hasnt been doing great either. she feels extremely guilty because she thinks its her fault that dovekit ran away, and when dovekit is never found, it gets 50x worse.

but she also doesnt want to say anything about her involvement in fear of getting punished. as time goes on, she starts getting babied by the clan (almost like leopardstar when she was a kid) because her sister disappeared and she took it really hard.

and like on one hand, she likes the attention, but on the other hand its too much a lot of the time. she starts adopting this “stop babying me!1!1!!!”/kinda edgy persona. the clan takes it like shes grieving, and she’ll grow out of it, so they dont say too much.

so the book opens w/ ivypaw and fernpaw’s apprentice ceremony. brief context about how fern was recently found by the thunderclan border w/o parents and taken into the clan. fernsong is apprenticed to brightheart. ivypool is apprenticed to cinderheart.

firestar probably thinks that they might be able to bond/break through to each other because they recently lost a sister/adjacent sister. neither of them are particularly enthusiastic about it.

cinderheart isnt particularly invested in ivypaw’s training. ivypaw can tell and gets rightfully frustrated, bc brightheart and fernpaw are getting along great and making lots of progress, while ivypaw is falling behind becuase cinderheart is being a terrible mentor.

ivypaw starts fighting back (disobeying, talking back, etc.), partially because this is the only time she gets paid attention, and partially because shes just mad, which makes cinderheart mad, which then makes ivypaw fight back more. this causes cinderheart to become more and more distant. in short: ivypaw’s apprenticeship is a disaster.

at some point during training, theyre practicing climbing trees and cinderheart tells ivypaw to do something. to spite her, ivypaw does the opposite and ends up falling, dislocating her leg. cinderheart panics and cinderpelt emerges.

cinderpelt basically possesses cinderheart and relocates her arm. they go back to camp and take ivypaw to the medicine cat den, gives ivypaw some poppy seeds and ditches.

“wow um. wtf was that” says cinderheart. leafpool is like, “hahaha………… about that. you’re um… cinderpelt reincarnated.”

“what.” says cinderheart

“CINDERHEART IS CINDERPELT REINCARNATED???” screams foxleap at the top of his lungs in the middle of camp. whatever was left of cinderheart’s life shatters.

so now instead of ignoring her, the entire camp won’t leave her alone - except now they just treat her as they would cinderpelt. “hey cinderheart remember when [enter something that happened in the old forest here]??” “hey cinderheart can you fix my paw??” “hey cinderpelt-” “are you going to become a medicine cat then??”

to pour more salt into the wound, cinderheart now gets a free commentary on everything in her life!! (this definitely includes lionblaze) there used to be sort of a barrier between cinderheart/cinderpelt but since cinderpelt emerged/took control, it shattered.

so between cinderpelt complaining about all the terrible decisions she’s made and the entire clan pretending that she’s cinderpelt instead of a Completely Different Person, when hawkfrost shows up w/ an invite to fight club on the weekends cinderheart is more than happy to take him up.

sure hawkfrost is wildly annoying and clearly hates her guts for some reason (no matter how hard he pretends not to whenever tigerstar is around) but this is great for three reasons.

1) nobody in the dark forest has any idea she’s cinderpelt. 2) warrior training!! emphasizing she is a Warrior not a medicine cat. 3) time away from cinderpelt!! they arent the same soul so they cant read each other’s thoughts (unless theyre trying to communicate) and cant share dreams

so she might be purposely oblivious. whatever. she doesnt even know who hawkfrost is b/c anybody outside of riverclan immediately forgot about him because he really was not very effective at all. and its not like hes about to start spilling the beans until shes ready to be indoctrinated w/ dark forest propaganda.

meanwhile, tensions between shadowclan and thunderclan have been rapidly rising. again. prey is being stolen, scents are on other territories, patrols get into skirmishes often.

firestar is hurt because he was trying to get mistystar to lay off on the territory and blackstar is mad because they literally Just got back and thunderclan is ALREADY trying to reinstate old rivalries.

cinderheart really isnt paying attention to what’s going on cuz shes. more than a little wrapped up in her own problems. until it turns into a war.

this battle feels way more vicious than normal. cinderheart tries to recall how this whole thing started and realizes she has absolutely no idea what tf is going on???

throughout the fight she notices weird stuff happening. mousewhisker and redwillow nod to each other. ratscar + blossomfall swap glances. applefur pulls snowbird off thornclaw’s back. literally wtf thinks cinderheart

and then russetfur takes a stab at firestar. out of nowhere, thornclaw goes for her throat. cinderheart barely saves russetfur in the nick of time - the injuries are bad enough that she is forced to retire.

“screw literally everyone in thunderclan except u” blackstar says pointing @ cinderheart “and i hope the rest of you rot in the dark forest.” he rounds the rest of shadowclan up and then leaves.

“well that was weird” says cinderheart. she goes off to find ivypaw and realizes that shes. not responding. oh thats a lot of blood-

cinderpelt pops up again and works w/ cinderheart to patch up ivypaw until she’s stable. they bring her into the medicine den together and let leafpool look her over. she says that they made it in time and ivypaw will live. she leaves to go look after the other patients, leaving cinderheart with her apprentice

cinderheart realizes that this is her fault. had she actually paid attention to ivypaw and given her proper training, this wouldn’t have happened. she resolves to try a lot harder to be a good mentor for ivypaw’s sake.

cinderpelt approves and apologizes for being so intrusive on cinderheart’s life. she really doesnt want to be in here either - this was a decision the idiots in starclan forced on her. she was taking it out on cinderheart, which wasn’t fair for her.

cinderpelt promises to try to give cinderheart as much privacy as she can (while trying to figure out how to get out of her brain). cinderheart thanks her. there’s a brief bonding moment.

cinderpelt says that since ivypaw seems stable she’s going to go to sleep now, since she exhausted herself earlier.

just as cinderpelt goes out to the back of cinderheart’s mind, blossomfall comes storming in about how cinderheart messed the plan up and how cinderheart screwed everything up for everyone & she’s a traitor to the cause, Honestly cinderheart you’re so useless-

“literally wtf are you talking about” says cinderheart

“you saved russetfur,” blossomfall says. “if we take out the leaders and deputies, we can destabilize the clans enough that taking over will be a piece of cake. are you a dark forest trainee or not, cinderheart?”

end of book

[themadvigilantist]

just a thought...

....technically, my hot takes

i could rant about doctor who head writer(s) choices and call it out all day long about why [insert action by # doctor here] is just half done or has an allegory to what's happening now but, the doctor would be absolved from said thing because 'it was to save the world/current time period/person here' excuse.

like i could tell you that:

'the silence vs the doctor arch' is actually just an allegory of police brutality towards pocs in history due to systematic racism that's looked away/forgotten about and how the public/the government uses the whole 'but yall killing each other too excuse' or as the silence put it 'you should kill us all on sight' to shift blame of the non-poc's choice to do the same to pocs but, to a horrifying degree ie what 11 doctor does to the silence AND THE RAMIFICATIONS IT CONTINUES TO HAVE EVEN NOW I AM. which makes the doctor a villain especially because he's known as the man in the blue police box or as a 'hero'. And the abuse towards river song in show and by rose stans?? Oh the disrespect?? Her entire arch with the silence is an allegory of black woman being the most disrespected despite going above and beyond and hiding the pain because 'the doctor doesnt like endings'. And both the silence and her are just brushed aside like..... the water parallel. i just - oof but its too early for that moffat drag

or like the constant disrespect to pocs in rtd's era. which made 12 cringe later on with the first doctor but that him cringing on what he did in his tenth incarnation - yeah rtd aint safe either. he allowed girl in the fireplace to be on our screens.

how the doctor treat river the same as jack and donna combined is something that need to be talked about right now. and how even river in her audios with tenth doctor shows that ten really wanted donna back. like his whole vibe was ‘fuck everybody else tho but, donna’ and i just I HAVE QUESTIONS (both as a romantically platonic ship but more importantly, like ten where are you set at? time lord victorious wise with river? where r u? because you and river talking like ‘time lord victorious’-era and i really need that cleared up.

or how when 9 says he the last of the time lords but both iris wildthyme and him were on earth at those times and that he would’ve felt them LIES. SHE WAS THERE! HER TARDIS WAS THERE TOO IN THE FIRST EP OF ROSE! WACK! ‘im the last of my kind weh’ no tf ur not. ‘i would’ve sensed them *taps his temple* in here* APPARENTLY NOT DUMBASS

the whole master/doctor on the eiffel tower - i can drag BOTH DOCTOR AND THE MASTER FOR THIS BABE - yeah chibnall aint safe just because he got ~diversity~ nah i can drag him too.

i could also offer an addition of sorts to dhawan!master's reveal of what hes done to gallifrey by showing her that what he had done was the final act but what tecteun had done before hand was destroy her true home - her forgotten home, pre-tecteun. Just show her the world that she never had the chance to know - the chance to discover - to learn about and of and where she really came from and destroy it. Just to justify further on why he destroyed Gallifrey like that and how the previous thing would just play further into the fact that tecteun and gallifreyans were actually using gentrification on the doctor the entire time and by destroying her home would be stripping her of her culture and then try to pass it off as ~cute~ or a ~style~ so im glad he just chose to straight up kill the colonizers i mean gallifreyans by turning them into the one thing that made them feel the very consequences of their actions and choices on what they done to the doctor. (With the cybermen tech).

i can even drag iris wildthyme by her roots for how she treated panda. idgaf he’s a sentient stuffed panda I WOULD KILL HER ON SIGHT. ‘oh i made sure in every timeline of your existence that you would die just to keep you from being stuck in a painting even though every single version of you would be financially doing well without me and would kill themselves because of me manipulating the situation so you would do that over and over and over BUT HEY YOU’RE NOT STUCK IN A PAINTING!’ i couldn’t be panda, she would be dead. there would be no more iris wildthyme adventures. i rather be stuck in a painting than travel with her ever again or i would just kill her. on sight. no hesitation. sorry katy manning but, you just gonna have to be jo grant forever.

I mean i could go on, i could but, im sleepy while typing this and yes i've been sitting on all that to myself for years but ... i still watch it and it does small steps to address things but, as far as im concerned - [skips several pages] my ending would just be us having a martha audio with ten (because consistancy) and martha series separate from torchwood ok? like rose got one, jackie got one, lady christina got one, fucking jenny got one, every river audio sound like iris wildthyme (and the newer ones with ten is him thirsting and missing DONNA. like rose whomst? apparently in big finish 10 only knows rose tyler when her name misspelled and smudged on his hand) and donna's audios clearly superior amongst all them, so its martha's time to shine. Give her three audios with him.

Because the timelord victorious audios clearly just skipped martha in the trailer and i cant stand here with him having that much thirst for donna and him in the same breath not say martha's name.

Give her some audios with him. Give her standalone audios too and for once, not let her talk about the doctor. I miss noel too, put him in there too.

[ghouls-dream]

No one:

Literally not a living or a dead soul:

Me, an intellectual: HCS!!!

Yeah so I suddenly felt the urge to describe the Papa(s), The ghouls and Cardi as dads. Enjoy ratties <3

Papa Nihil: Very strict, kinda distant to their child (children), but also extremely loving. He loves his boys/girls dearly, but since he's extremely bad at showing emotions (rather than anger ofc and sass) he has a hard time proving that. He's the type of dad that will always sign up their kid for sports, be somewhat sour when they get a bad grade and if they get an A for instance he'd be like "I'm proud, son, bUT JOSH HAS AN A+!!!". With time I image he'd evolve into a "dad jokes" machine and everyone around him would cringe :").

Papa Emeritus I: Since he's the oldest child he'd spent the most time with his father. So im guessing he'll try to be very different from Nihil. He'd show his children how much he loves them in any way possible, without reaching the point of spoiling them. He hates spoiled, bratty kids. Papa I would also teach his sons to be gentleman, taking responsibilty, like he does (and did with his brothers) and respect the elders. If he has daughters tho, they'd deffinitely be his biggest weakness and his "first unconditional love". Really affectionate father.

Papa Emeritus II: I'd say he has Nihil's strictness and he'd also be a little distant with his children at first! But that's until he gets used to them. I imagine Papa III a bit terrified by the idea of holding his little ones when babies, because he's always been really clumsy and rough. With time, as I said, he'll get used to them and even turn into his children's best friend and partner in crime. He'd show them anything they want to see, he'd explain every single thing. I feel like Papa II would re-descover his own self and the world throughout his children, he'll become more caring and loving for sure. Also - he's EXTREMELY protective, especially if he has girls.

Papa Emeritus III: Now that's the "cool dad". He's the type of dad that would come to their child's game with a huge poster, saying "(son's name) KICK ASS!" and not be ashamed to shout throughtout the whole time. Papa III would most deffinitely give his children a hard time, since he'd emberasse them by accident all THE TIME - showing baby photos to their friends or willing to party "all night with them". He'd have a very strong bond with his children tho, because I feel like he's still a kid by heart. So I guess he'd be down for a lot of shit like "Wanna go for an ice cream at 2am? Don't tell your mom tho".

Cardinal Copia: The awkward dad. Since the day his children come out into the world he'd be confused. Diapers? "HOW TF DO I DO IT??" Babies crying or refusing to eat? "HONEY, I THINK IT'S B R O K EN". He'd be lost without his soulmate, but once the children grow a little, Cardinal would love to be around them play catch or let them play with the rats (thEY ARE VACCINATED THANK U). He'd adore his children, no matter their gender and would always ask them if they want to join him for his tours. He's the type of dad that is ready to destroy every single creature that somehow hurts their child (even if its a bee sting). Very loving and really goofy father.

THE GHOULS:

Aether: THE DAD-DAD! THIS ONE WAS BORN TO BE A FATHER! Aether will be over the moon when he finds out his soulmate is pregnant and will start preparing everything from day 1. He'd be the most supportive of all - always encouring his children to follow their dreams, never give up and would teach them respect, self-love and compassion towards everyone else. Aether would also be prone to spoiling, but just like Papa I he hates bratty kids, so he'd keep it low and tell his children to be happy with what they have and value everything in life. Depends if he'd be the sporty type of dad or the "I'M PROUD OF MY CHILD - HE TIED HIS SHOES BY HIMSELF TODAY!".

Mountain: Mountain would be the dad who'd be the happiest if his children (or at least one of them) followed his steps and became a drummer! He'd spend a huge amount of his time in the session room with his kids, letting them bang on the drums or play any other instrument. He's the dad who'd be strict when it comes to education. Mountain would be the father who has a really strong connection with his kids and that would fascinate everyone. Even during puberty, his children will never be ashamed to ask or talk about their issues and he'd more than happy to help them out. Really responsible, calm and loving.

Swiss: Really similar to Papa III, but a lot more open minded and free spirited. He'd be the type of dad that would tell his children: "If you wanna smoke- tell me, if you wanna drink - do it in front of me first, if you wanna try weed - BRING SOME FOR ME AS WELL!". He's well aware of the fact that restrictions give a birth to a rebel, because he was one when younger. In order to keep the bond between him and his children, he'd be willing to go through everythng all over again. He's really loving, very protective if he has daughters and more cocky when it comes to sons. He'd be the funny dad, that would wait all night to ask his son "Did you AT LEAST use a condom?".

Rain: The "mom-dad". Rain would be the OVER PROTECTIVE FATHER. "Are you hurt? Did anyone said mean stuff to you? Are yOU OKAY?!" type of dad. No matter that he gives out the expression of a really soft ghoul, Rain could turn into everyone's nightmare if he finds out someone hurt their kid. He'd try really hard to protect his children from all the cruelty in the world. Rain would also be very focused on his kids' passions and will encourage them to follow every each one of their dreams (just like Aether). He'd be extremely loving and will deffinitely teach his children that family and friends are the most important things in life.

Dewdrop: I left Dew for the end because I really can't see him as a dad :"D . But if i gotta sum it up - he's the "THAT'S MY KID" dad. Always proud of his children. Dew's child broke someone's nose? "THAT'S MY BOI/GIRL!" In fact I think he'd be very similar to Swiss when it comes to being open minded. He'd like his children to be polite and well educated, as well responsible. I think Dew would be the dad that's down for a lot of stupid things and even encourage his children to do them with him (nothing too serious ofc). He'd take them on tour quite often and let them jam with the band in rehearsels. Dew always thought he wouldn't be a good dad one day, but since he actually became one - now he can't imagine his life without his "little overhyped devils".

[spectraling]

My problems with S3

Salty rant in no particular order below the cut

What the HELL happened to the Byers? They went from being the emotional heart of the show to literally having one brief scene together in ep1 and then Will and Joyce had a hug by the end of ep8, which btw Jonathan DIDN’T EVEN JOIN IN ON??? He was literally in the background in that scene, are you trying to tell me my boy Jonathan Byers would not come out to hug his family after all that shit they just went through???? Jonathan and Will spent like what, four episodes standing next to each other and they barely even exchanged a single line?? Not a comforting touch, a hug, anything??

The Byers’ financial situation and how that could’ve given them some interaction, weight to Joyce’s desire to move and also the Byers talking about that AT ALL was lying right there for the taking. Joyce and Jonathan both had obvious concerns about losing their jobs

Joyce got to spend time doing something else than worrying about Will this season which was nice (instead running after manchild Hopper, great), but where are the repercussions of that? With the growing up theme I was hoping for Joyce to start to look into herself, about letting go and who she is when she’s not a mom

Jonathan was once again reduced to being Nancy’s sidekick, spending most of his time following her around and standing next to her while she drove the plot forward with a vengeance. He spent most of his time in the beginning being an abrasive grump and his pov was barely there with the lack of Byers fam content, which made his argument seem as weak as it did in s2. His scenes with Nancy hit the ground running, were rushed and few and far between. As soon as Jonathan was not by Nancy’s side he disappeared entirely from the plot until she called on him again. He didn’t have one single scene without her

Nancy Wheeler would never, ever stoop so low as to mock Jonathan for a) his socioeconomic position and b) his trauma with his dad. A super ooc low blow. Nancy can obviously be ignorant about how economical strife affects others, but actively mocking him??? This is not the Nancy that approached Jonathan “the freak” in s1 and expressed her concerns despite the entire school side-eyeing her. At least Jonathan got to sass back at her later

Where was Nancy’s backstory that was hinted at before the season? Was hoping for her to get some development OUTSIDE of her rallying to save the world 24/7

Will starts out the season having a semblance of an interesting, very relatable arc (abandonment issues, afraid of growing up, done with The Straights) that then goes nowhere in lieu of The Plot and Will just... doesn’t have a lot of beef with the MF. This thing and the other monsters of the UD fucked him for life, let him have something badass to do like I dunno, give him powers you cowards, let him fight the MF you cowards

Also let Will talk to his family about his issues, or have it be a point that Jonathan is now busy with Nancy and how he misses him. Jonathan being somewhat conflicted about spending all this time outside his family and the potential guilt and effect that has on him. Will destroyed Castle Byers that he and Jonathan built together, where the hell were my brotherly feels???

There was a lot of talk about “new pairings” with the characters, but everything felt very same-y. Jopper goes off on their own, jancy does the same thing, El and Mike have a ton of screentime devoted to just them, Steve and Dustin amped up their bromance to eleven, etc. Even when characters that usually aren’t grouped together were in the same scenes, they barely got anything to say or do (Lucas being said to “become closer with Jancy” was a flat out lie or referred to literally physically standing next to them). Where was Nancy and Joyce solidarity, El and Will siblings, Mike and Nancy bonding over their family falling apart, Jonathan and literally anyone but Nancy?

Villain focus completely shifted from the US government to the spoopy, evil Russians with their spoopy language. Stereotypical, tacky and bland af. Being American is Great and in no way problematic! Go patriotism/capitalism!

The abundance of action and cgi. Omg all of the action sequences. It felt like 70% of the season was spent on El throwing shit around with her powers and Hopper fighting Russian dudes. I remember being halfway through the season and thinking they really should’ve slowed down the plot. But that’s an issue with too little time for too many characters. I had no time to bond with any of the characters I liked since the plots were So Big and So Many that they ate up every opportunity for emotional intimacy and reflection. We had time for a goddamn ad for coke but not for the Byers to interact like once???

Also the whole infection/MF working in the shadows thing? Completely wasted potential. It was set up to induce paranoia in the characters and the MF tricking, playing with and torturing them, people not knowing who to trust which could’ve lead to some really compelling scenes. Nope, it’s just a big meaty version of the MF and now it’s running around town trying to fuck El up while nobody conveniently notices and tons of people died but who cares

Robin was shoehorned into the plot and magically had all the skills it took to figure out the code, could decipher Russian with no previous knowledge (the languages she listed as knowing are not at all related to Russian and why tf does she know so many languages??). At least she slapped Stobin in the face and gave us some actual LGBT rep since the doofuses are hellbent on beating around the bush with Will infinitely

Erica was 100% SASS and nothing else. It got old really quick

The entire plotline with Steve/Dustin/Erica/Robin took up about 60% of screentime with memes and sassy jokes and provided about 5% of relevance in the grand scheme of the plot. Everything they found out in the Russian facility could’ve been relayed by the Russian guy Jopper kidnapped

Which btw, why did a random Russian dude take up that much screentime? He had way more emotional development than 80% of the core cast. Also did we need that much Murray?

Speaking of, I did not need Murray doing his creepy, invasive psycho analysis thing on Jopper like he did Jancy last season. It was terrible and lazy writing then and it’s terrible and lazy now

Steve complaining about popularity “not being that great really” made me want to punch him in the face even more than usual. Nobody gives two shits about a rich white boy who got everything he pointed at, all the popularity and more girls than he could count at school while stomping on the outcasts

Also didn’t need that jab at Nancy in his heartfelt scene with Robin (which was funny bc Robin has a lot of similar traits to Nancy)

Karen and Billy was gross, but at least Karen stopped herself to go back to her unfulfilling but legally sound marriage. No need to rock that boat unnecessarily! A completely mediocre man is just fine for her I guess. At least she got a kickass scene with Nancy

Why in the fucking world did Billy get as much screentime as he did. Why on earth did this asshat, racist abuser get some bs sob story about his awful childhood when we have 47 other, way more sympathetic and interesting characters that could’ve been explored instead. And then he did some stupid “grand heroic sacrifice”. I cried more when the Russian dude died

Max was a victim of Billy’s abuse for years which was completely undermined by her ooc constant concern for him and overblown grief at his death

El being oh so concerned about Billy when she knew he was the asshole who had abused his friends Max and Lucas (and beat up Steve) before felt really insincere

Hopper was a huge, loud, violent jerk this season and I’m not having it. I felt sorry for Joyce having to put up with him and then he presumably died heroically (??? he’s obviously still alive guys) and I...didn’t really care? Was kind of on the Jopper train but have no hopes for it now. Where was their supposed “history” together that was hinted at before the season? It just felt like Hopper constantly acting like a huge, controlling manchild and Joyce having to pep/comfort/discipline him. No sense of back and forth support

What the fuck was that music number with Dustin and Suzie?? Omg cringe. I could feel how the characters all died inside

On the subject of music, they stole Jancy’s theme song and gave it to Steve and Robin and then Mileven. Mileven also stole Jancy’s “I love you”, which was clearly hinted from the name of the song on the soundtrack titled “The first I love you”, which is literally a rehash of their theme “The first lie” in s2. A huge slap in the face to end the season with

⌈ kim taehyung, cismale, he/him ⌋ hey, is it GRAY SIWOO that you’re looking for? you know, the TWENTY-ONE year old STUDENT. typically i see them hanging around ROAST CAFE so you could try there! i hear they’ve been in living in SAUGATUCK RESIDENTIAL for HIS WHOLE LIFE. gristol wouldn’t the same without them, right? anyway, whenever i see them they make me think of ripped jeans, colorful retro sunglasses, painted nails.

some quick info:

full name: gray siwoo

age: 21

date of birth: june 10

gender: cis male

pronouns: he/him

orientation: bisexual

occupation: student

allergies: peanut

zodiac sign: gemini

ok so gray was born and raised in gristol by his parents. his mom moved very young from korea to study abroad ( law more specifically ) and decided to stay when she met his father ( politics major ) and the two of them fell quickly and deeply at a very young age. however her family didn’t agree to it so she decided to cut them off even though she was very attached to them, so gray doesn’t know his family on his mother’s side at all. never spoke to them, don’t know what they look like, anything.

she didn’t come from a wealthy family but his father did!  once gray’s grandfather passed away his father being the only son took over their real estate brokerage business, making their lives way too easy. despite having her degree, his mom decide to dedicate herself to her family only and her kids, spoiling him rotten and giving literally everything he wants. gray could pretty much get away with everything if he pouts, which has helped him into his selfish and manipulative behaviors where he needs to get what he wants one way or another.

however, in order to shape him into a decent human he could get anything he wantedin his parents terms. he wasn’t handed everything, his dad was very rigid about that. instead he had to work  for it. do chores around the house, get good grades, that kinda thing. that really shaped him into a working man dhsuidfh ( even though most of the time his mom would let him off said chores )

TW DEATH

his mom was the sweet one in the house, but when gray was around 12 his mom fell sick and they discovered that she had leukemia and gray watched as his mom was no longer her best-self and never left her side to her last breath. his father was never a very loving type of father and often times he wanted to protect gray from seeing his mom that way but even at 12 years old gray was very mature and refused to let his father take away his time with his mom. the day she passed away was the day gray disconnected from his father completely, he blames him for her death and refuses to believe that now they can have a relationship when he spent so much time busy with work and away from them. gray still suffers a lot with her death but he never lets it show, not wanting to be vulnerable around others and doesn’t really want to worry his sister more than he already does.

he tries to not let the sadness and all the negative feelings take over him, figuring that his mom would want him to be kind and respectful to others like she was. he misses her dearly, she was his everything.

END OF TW

his dad has been the MAYOR of gristol for a couple years now, still a couple to go and will probably run again. gray thinks it’s hilarious that he can’t even take care of their house, how could he handle a whole town? but doesn’t say anything, in fact he takes advantage of his dad’s title to do whatever TF HE WANTS

his dad is also lowkey a homophobic and is that type who sees two guys kissing and public and cringes and comments about how its an indecency but wont do the same for the straight couples lol so gray prefers to hide that he kisses boys too from him but for everyone else he is out n proud ok 

at school gray was always kind of popular, he had his group of friends of course but he was naturally very social. he liked to talk and make people laugh and that continues through this day. he’s very sarcastic too which can be funny and because he’s a gemini he has those mood swings so pls be patient, sometimes he’ll be funny and cheerful and sometimes he’ll lock himself in his room for days without explanation

he was always very into music and was classic trained since he was a kid. that was very important to his parents. he can play piano, guitar, he can sing but he doesn’t think he can so he avoids the whole thing, loves playing though, especially the piano. catch him randomly playing just because at 6 am to wake up everyone because he’s THAT annoying lmao

his father demands a lot out of both him and expects him to be the perfect son and beCAUSE of that he goes against everything his dad wants. he wanted gray to attend politics school as well so he could be like him but gray decided to take arts instead, which he loves btw - he’s very artsy and loves to paint, draw, do some digital art and all that

he’s not a very big spender thankfully ( except w clothes tho ) , he likes to save his money even though thats never really lacked in his family.  he has plans of eventually leaving his father’s house and moving somewhere else away from him, the only reason why he hasn’t yet is hana. he can’t leave her. he’s simple, but likes to dress well and is obsessed with technology, he always has to have the newest phones, notebooks, watches, video games etc

very addicted to his phone and social media, instagram specially, in fact he likes to posts his art content and everything he does in there, updates his story all the goddamn time, i’d say he has a big following bc homeboy has a pretty face

a little bit of a hoe not going to lie, he’s very flirty and loves seeing his charm work on people, he tends to not let it go very far unless he feels very attracted to the person, he’s not the type to go fuck randoms and all that, he needs to have some type of connection before he gets intimate with someone

he can be a little hesitant to get close to people because he has major trust issues but once u get him talking there’s really no way to stop him, loves to roast and tease people just to be cute, he likes attention

a gentleman, he’s the real boyfriend material. he will open the door for you, carry your bags, carry yOU if you say you’re tired, go out of his way to make sure you’re comfortable, he’s your servant feel free to abuse it

however there are times where he snaps out of nowhere or just wants to be alone and is mean all suddenly but after will act like nothing has happened lmao

EXTREMELY affectionate, likes to touch hold hands hug kiss, he likes it when people play with his hair but all of that only applies to people he’s comfortable with, if you don’t know him well don’t touch him

[ anxiety tw ] he suffers w anxiety a lot due to his mom and stress and fighting w his father, sometimes he disappears and that’s when he’s having a crisis. he has panic attacks when its at its peak and he works out a lot and does yoga and all that as well as taking medication to keep it all at balance for his own sake [ end of anxiety tw ]

tries to eat healthy and watches what he eats a lot, he used to be chubby for a bit as a kid and that pushed him to work on himself which also makes him a little insecure about his body and his appearance. it’s still a little hard for him to believe that someone could be attracted to him and it’s also hard for him to just take a compliment without turning it into a joke.

neat freak, likes everything organized and clean and will freak out if you come over and mess up his room or go through his things

has terrible luck with relationships but never says no to love, tbh he’s a hopeless romantic and loves the chase. loves to gossip and he’s a bit shady when he doesn’t like someone ( which is not often this boy has a heart of gold ) fiughduf

omg i tried to keep this short and failed miserably

here’s some possible connections but i’m always up for anything

friends, ex-friends, enemies

someone who pretends to like him but actually talks shit about him behind his back

exes in good terms, exes in bad terms, there can be a few exes fjfgsdfhf

some sort of toxic relationship where they’re playing w each others feelings

flirtationship

someone he has a crush on but the other doesn’t or vice versa

a best friend, give him some bros pls

A CHILDHOOD best friend pls i love those

cousins, neighbors etc

party friends

iDK class mates

family friends

will they won’t they type thing

first kiss, first times etc

ENEMIES, people who just dislike him for any reason

someone who used to be friends w him but for whatever reason they have stopped talking ( perhaps a fight ) and now it’s either awkward as hell or they’re on their way to working things out

hook ups, friends w benefits etc

someone that likes fashion a lot too so they can go shopping together

work out buddy lets go

someone that likes his content on insta and knows him from there iDK

idk i’ll think of more later i swear

hit me up for plots love yall im excitED

*takes a deep breath*

*screams for an hour*

(Season 5 thoughts under the cut)

Okay, so, this might be my favorite season yet–though some of that depends on season 6 continuing on the trajectory I think it’s taking. I just. There’s a million things to say, and a lot of them are really little details, but

Lance! So many good Lance moments this season! From him taking more of a leadership role, to him side-eyeing Lotor at every opportunity, to his conversation with Allura when he got his sword, to his conversation with Ryou at the end there, to his message home and how for once he couldn’t keep up a happy face when Hunk ribbed him about being a flirt. And then in the next shot Hunk and Coran were both hugging him. Augh, my heart!

(Also! Names for Lance’s siblings! !!!)

Hunk! Being a nerd! Team Punk reprogramming the sentry for Fun ™! Hunk and Pidge arguing over computer stuff! I’m very ready for a major Hunk-centric storyline, but the wholesome Hunk content this season was v satisfying

Saaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmm

The entirety of the first two episodes made me cry, tbh. I’m just so happy Sam is safe and that he’s headed home to tell everyone what’s happening. I’m ready for that Earth arc, Dreamworks. Let’s do this.

Also let’s do Lance and Hunk’s messages to their families (/their families’ reactions) as bonuses between seasons a la the paladin vlogs, y/y?

(Also on a personal note, Rolo, Nyma, and Beezer helping out the Holts in ep 1 gave me life!)

I don’t fucking trust Lotor for shit, and I was getting worried because I almost thought they were really making him a good guy, but then the last episode hit and Lotor symbolically murdered Altea again and I feel vindicated. Like, look, you’re free to have your own take on things, but as far as I’m concerned, Lotor is manipulating everyone, but especially Allura, and I was cringing through every one of their scenes. He’s up to something, and while he may not exactly want/need to take out Voltron atm, he certainly doesn’t value them above whatever his goals are. Shit’s gonna hit the fan sooner or later and it’s gonna be ugly. I’m ready for Allura to punch him in the face.

Keith’s mom! Ahh! I’m looking forward to more of her next season, but that episode was so gooooood. I call it, though. I so called it! From Kolivan’s whole, “Control your emotions” spiel to the fact that she has Keith’s hair (aww, so cute!) I’m just.

Now we just need to figure out how Acxa fits into all this, because why tf did she make a point of saving him, notably after he lost his face mask and she saw who he was?? I’m still 1000% more on board with Lotor’s generals getting a redemption arc than Lotor himself. Let’s give these ladies some love, am I right?

(Also weirdly I want a Haggar redemption arc now?? I didn’t want it before, but the more she remembers, the more I think she could actually go back to being Honerva without all the rift corruption shit. But also she’s going after the White Lion and I’m really worried what she’s going to do with it.)

Ryou

Okay, look, I’ve been on Team Clone Shiro since they named the experiment fucking “Operation Clone,” okay? I love my son Ryou, but he is a clone, and I’m worried about how much influence Haggar might have over him. 90% of what he’s done the last two-and-a-half seasons fits with either Shiro’s established personality or the fact that he’s recently been re-traumatized and is under a lot of pressure, but there are all these little things that raise red flags. Ordering Voltron to take a hit that very well could have killed them, back when Keith was still in Black; falling for the trap in the s4 finale despite Lance warning him to get out; going behind the team’s back to give Lotor the black bayard, which almost landed it back in Zarkon’s hands; going with Lotor to the coronation-thing without telling anyone, which almost got him and Lotor killed and almost lost them the Black Lion. You can justify any one of these things, but it’s turning into a pattern that’s dangerous–not only because of the risks he’s taking, but because he’s holding so much back from his friends–deliberately lying to them at times. The Voltron bond is a big deal, and if it keeps on like this I’m worried the team won’t be able to trust Ryou enough to form Voltron. The team is starting to call him on it now, and for good reason. Ryou’s getting passive-aggressive and straight-up ignoring the team in a way that just doesn’t fit with who we know Shiro is.

And just in case there was any question, we’ve now seen Haggar looking through his eyes the way she did with Narti, multiple times. AND when the team entered the Voltron bond-space, Shiro was the last to arrive, wasn’t fully there, and tried to warn Lance about something–and Ryou doesn’t have any memory of any of it. All I’m saying is, if Ryou isn’t a clone, then Haggar has for sure messed with Shiro’s head big time, to the point that Shiro and the person controlling the body are distinct entities. (I’m still riding this Clone Theory to the bitter end because, again, Operation Clone.)

Just, fuck. I love Ryou. I do. I don’t think he’s trying to hurt anyone, and I adored the scene between him and Lance. The fact that he’s suspicious of himself, that he’s worried enough about it to reach out to Lance, tells me that he isn’t an active spy. He’s a sleeper agent at worst and a clone-with-a-nanny-cam-and-a-migraine-that-makes-it-hard-to-think-straight at best, and while a heroic death to save the team is still a (terrifying) possibility, I have hope that Ryou is going to be a sympathetic character for as long as he’s around, and you have no idea how happy that makes me.

Now let’s just find Shiro and bring him home, too.

(Seriously, where is he? Either far away but still able to tap into the Voltron bond–unlikely, in my estimation. Or he’s stuck on the astral plane somewhere–probably the most likely. Or he’s fused with Voltron/the Black Lion somehow? Idk how that would work, but it’s a possibility?)

I’m probably skipping over a lot because so freaking much happened this season, but apckasm,ea’. Great season all around. Now we just need season 6 to give us the payoff we deserve. I want Keith kicking ass with his momma, Ryou figuring out what he is and going on a crusade to help Shiro, Hunk and Lance being their beautiful selves, Lotor betraying the team

And, oh, yeah. That D&D episode? (Flashback episode? Romelle episode??)

Whatever it was in the clip with the Allura lookalike with the bow.

Birthday! - Chris x MC (Ariana)

Masterlist Note: MC was never given a birthday in TF/TS so, I wanna give her a birthday based in book 3 TF. This is fluff and angst so YAY. *cringe*

Summery: It’s MC’s (Ariana) birthday and her friends have an ideal day out with her, but that all gets turned around when Chris comes home from a late night meeting and forgets it Ariana’s birthday altogether.

Ariana was getting ready for her birthday party at the club in downtown. Zack had been sweet enough to organise a birthday and Kaitlyn had come up the dress code; Black, silver, pink and purple. Ariana chose a tight fitting dress that was mid thigh in length. It was light pink with lace sleeves, which had a low back and small black jewels on the waist area. She added a pair of 6 inch black stilettos given she was 5′2. And then left her room with a small black clutch.

She met Tyler, Abbie and Kaitlyn in the living room but Zack was nowhere in sight.

“Zack’s idea yet he isn’t here.” Ariana rolled her eyes and let out a small laugh. “Did I hear my name?” Abbie, Tyler and Ariana all turned around in unison.

Zack was dressed in full black. “Damn Zack, when did you become a bodyguard?” Kaitlyn said mockingly. Zack gave a dramatic gasp. “Kaitlyn, I’m not a bodyguard. I just appreciate the colour black.”

“Hey Ariana, can we go yet? I don’t think waiting for Chris is worth it.” Ariana couldn’t help but get defensive. After all, he was her boyfriend. “He’ll be here.” Ariana was so certain that he would.  “He told me he wouldn’t let his meeting run too late. I believe that he’ll be here by 8:00.”  Ariana forced a small smile. “Jeez Ari, no need to get defensive. I’m just saying that it’s 7:55 and he’s not here yet.”

As if on cue, they heard keys jingle and the door to the suite opened revealing Chris. As the door closed Ariana gave him a huge hug and a peck on the lips.

“Damn Ariana. What are you all dressed up for?” Confusion crossed Chris’ face. Ariana opened her mouth but no sound came out. She was at a loss for words. Lucky for her, Kaitlyn stepped in before it became too awkward.

Everyone moved to the living room because they were also waiting for James and Zig.

“Oh god Chris. You’re joking right?” Ariana fell into the couch. If she spoke it probably wouldn’t have been as awkward as it was right now. While Chris and Kaitlyn were looking at each other, Tyler, Abbie, Zack and Ariana were looking at one and other then at Chris and Kaitlyn. The silence was thick with awkwardness, and if felt as if you could cut it with a knife.

Ariana stood up and approached Chris, cupping his cheek and looking intently into his eyes while giving him a gentle yet saddened smile. She lowered her voice to merely a whisper. “Chris, do you really not remember what today is?” Her voice breaking towards the end of that sentence. Chris looked as if he really was trying to remember what today was, but it just wouldn’t come to him. He shook his head. Tears welling up in her eyes, she had to step away from him.

Ariana took a couple of deep breaths trying hard to compose herself. She closed her eyes tight. “Umm, how about we give you guys some privacy?” Abbie’s suggestion was more like a rhetorical question. Abbie led the others out of the suite, leaving Chris and Ariana alone together to hopefully give them time to solve this issue.

About 10 seconds later, Tyler came running into the suite and through the door both Ariana and Chris could see Abbie glaring at Tyler.

“Did you forget something?” Ariana had opened her eyes by this time and was looking over at Tyler heading into his room. “Uh, I forgot to take a waterproof jacket or umbrella. It’s raining outside.” Chris was now looking at Tyler, and Ariana nodded her head a little. As soon as he went back outside, Ariana and Chris could hear Abbie telling him off for interrupting Chris and Ariana’s conversation. Obviously assuming they were talking.

Ariana and Chris looked at each other as the door closed again. “Ariana, please tell me what’s going on.” Chris gave her a pleading look. Ariana couldn’t keep all the tears that were filled with pain in anymore. There were tears that started rolling down her cheeks.

She took a deep breath and looked into his bright blue eyes that were now filled with both, confusion and sorrow. She finally managed to find her voice. Her voice trembled as she spoke. “Chris, today is m-my.” She gave a frustrated sigh because she couldn’t find a way to say this without making him feel bad. She looked down at her hands and said the rest of that sentence, “my birthday.”

She shifted her gaze back to his eyes that were now looking apologetic. “Oh my god Ariana. I’m so sorry.” His facial expression softened, but in a sad way. Ariana tried her best to give him a smile. She smiled a small smile, but it was slowly leaving her face. That’s when she broke down.

She cried endlessly.

Her mind was racing.

Anger, hurt and sadness engulfed her.

Chris tried to hold her close, but she pushed him away. Her eyes were filled with anger and disappointment. “How could you forget Chris!?” Her voice broke. It was filled with sadness and anger. “I’m sorry!” Chris didn’t mean to sound harsh, but he did. “I literally just forgot!” Ariana shook her head. “Chris, this.” She couldn’t stop her tears as much as she tried. She took another deep breath and the tears started to slow down. “I can’t believe you forgot it was my birthday.” Chris moved closer to her. “I’m sorry. It just slipped my mind.”  Ariana let out a sarcastic laugh. “Something like this shouldn’t just slip your mind Chris.”

Chris looked at her with guilt. “I-I just can’t do this right now Chris. I haven’t felt this hurt and this much pain for a really long time.” She started crying again. This time harder. Chris’ breath hitched and Ariana ran out. She totally forgot about how much her feet were going to want her to pay the next day. She just wanted to get out. Leave everything behind and go.

The rain was extremely heavy when she ran out of the suite. Her friends were shocked, and all of them had a tinge of anger towards Chris.

Ariana ran to the middle of campus. Being a Saturday it was usually quiet, but today it was empty due to the rain. She sat on the edge of the fountain and cried.

She didn’t care that her makeup was smudged.

She didn’t care that her hair was soaked.

She didn’t care that her dress was ruined.  

She only cared that Chris forgot her birthday. This was supposed to be her favourite day of the year with her friends. Having a party with her friends, then spending time with her favourite person on the entire planet. All that was ruined. Somehow she thought it was her fault.

Maybe I put too much pressure on him.

Maybe he wanted out of the relationship so he ‘accidentally’ forgot.

Maybe he just stopped caring

Just then, she saw a figure running towards her. It was blurry not only because of the rain, but of the tears. It was Chris. Ariana got up and started towards Chris.

They stopped in front of each other and all Chris could do was pull her close. He embraced her tightly and she returned the embrace. Then she pulled away. Chris thought it was because she wanted to leave their relationship. He cursed himself for doing this to her. He had hurt her enough. Instead, to his surprise, she pulled him into a deep, passionate kiss.

After pulling away—catching his breath, he gently pressed his forehead against hers and whispered, “I love you. I am so so so sorry Ariana. You deserve so much more than me.” Ariana pulled him into another kiss. A slower one this time. She pulled back and whispered to him, “I love you too. It’s okay. I’m sorry. I really shouldn’t have run out like that.” This time he pulled her into a kiss. One that left her dazed. Once her head became clear of fog, she entwined their hands and told him one last thing. “And for the record Chris, I don’t think anyone could make me as angry as you can.” She paused and he stopped to look at her, feeling like he already knew what she was going to say next. “But at the same time, no one can ever make me the happiest person besides you. I can’t imagine my life without you. And hopefully, I never have to. I love you so much Chris.”

She smiled at him.

He smiled back at her.

All he could manage to say was, “And I love you so much more than you could ever know.”
