Hot Chemistry - Meita Ishiro Character Song EN Lyrics

*rough translation! i'm still learning, please excuse any mistakes! **bolded words were originally in english

(La la la..) Let’s go, grasp the missing whole picture  Connect the dots point by point Ride on, From that meeting to this moment To the point of stinging, Give and take (One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six) Meeting just according to my expectations (One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six) Surprise is just strategic Be right, the signal of emotion Fight, get worked up Without leaving anything out, let’s feel it together When you look me in the eye, it's a secret transmission Boldly as well as carefully The tire track continues on and on  Let’s run through to the solution Come on, get to the bottom of the conversation The unfolding argument is reaching its climax I know By knowing you more deeply than before The joy is bound to get deeper too Sparking, the passionate heart I kept to myself Burn, Go past the limit The point of the meter, to the next digit The precise network the tire tracks made From suspicion to faith Let’s be flexible about our plans So we can laugh at the unexpected things too There’s worth in lining up next to you Even keeping on this dangerous road There’s only one option Let’s run through to the solution Attack to the limit Your eyes only You can’t stop us We gotta go

Here's the first chapter of my definitely-not-late Klance Christmas fic!

SUMMARY: The war ended over a year ago, and Lance has been AWOL for months. Nobody knows why, and nobody is as eager to find out as Keith is. Especially since there's a paladin Christmas party soon (with a secret surprise) and nobody would be as excited as Lance McClain, if he only knew about it.

Honestly it's not too christmas-centric so I don't feel too bad for it being a boxing day fic.

Anyways, this is the first multi-chapter fic I've ever finished in my 7 years of writing, so this is actually a pretty big milestone for me! I hope you guys enjoy! I'm posting a chapter every day, so ironically this will end just before New Year's Eve!

Also, I'm wholeheartedly open to any criticism or critiques, so please have at it! And please comment, here or on Ao3, and please send asks if you have any questions! Thanks!

A Sweet Mishap - Chapter 34

Pairing - Jensen Ackles x Reader 

A/N: I just want to start by thanking everyone for all the love on this story so far. Let me know if you want to be added to the tag list. Please read the TW below and only read on if you feel comfortable doing so.

Also, Merry Christmas! I'm sorry I've been AWOL for the past few weeks, but I finally got a chance to write again and wanted to get this short part to you before Christmas. It will act as the finale to the first book of A Sweet Mishap - I definitely want to continue writing about this couple, but I think this is a nice way to wrap it up for the year and I'll come back with a sequel in the new year.

Potential Trigger Warnings: mentions of violence, rape, therapy, depression, sex

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───

I rise early, with the sun like usual despite not having to work today. I refuse to get out of bed until I absolutely have to. But I prop myself up with an obnoxious amount of pillows and drag my laptop over from the empty side of the bed onto my lap. I’m determined to submit all my assessments today before my session with Dr. Katelyn, slowly removing stresses one at a time.

I carefully read through each word and sentence making minor edits as I go and then with a deep breath hit submit on each one. For once, I actually feel highly confident with my essays, knowledge and with the grade that I hope to receive. Despite working myself to the bone all semester with so many priorities to balance I feel I actually managed to submit work that I’m proud of. I attribute it to my steadily improving mental health and clarity.

Once I close down my college tabs I decide to try to do a little planning of my own for the summer. Jensen’s organised so much, a lot that I don’t even know yet–just that he’s got surprises that I’ll like. I grew up in such a small area, yet I know he’s mostly lived in the larger cities, so my plan is to give him more of the country. I research diners and hiking trails and make sure some of my favorite spaces are still operating. The list of things I want to do is extensive, but I know, as much as I want to take the full three months, Stewie will need me back at Mamma Jo’s. He’s agreed to a month so far, but I could tell even that long concerned him. He only agreed becuase he knows he can rely on the juniors, which I promised to train up before I leave Thankfully, most of them have a lot of potential and are fast learners. As I’m searching through sites a Facetime notification pops up and I answer instantly.

“Hey Darlin’! You look comfy.”

“Good morning, Handsome. I am, but there is one thing that would make me comfier…”

“Less than a week and you can fall asleep in my arms every night for a month.”

“Except when we visit my parents…”

“Yeah, except then. But you’ll still be nearby, not a country away.”

“Yeah. I can’t wait! I was actually just researching places I want to take you back home.”

“Really? Any hints?”

I shake my head, “Nope! You’ve got your secrets, I’ve got mine.”

“Fair enough. You got therapy soon?”

“Two hours.”

“They’ll probably need me on set by then. I just wanted to check in while I had a chance.We’re pushing hard to be finished by Friday, I have no doubts. Then there’s just the wrap party that night, then I’ll see you.”

“I wish you could come to my last show…”

“I wish I could show you off at the wrap party. But it’s okay, we get a whole month together in Texas and that means so much more.”

“I really can’t wait. I submitted my assessments this morning, so I’ve just got therapy, a few more shows and my last few shifts at the cafe. I’m counting down each day and each road block. You know I’ve brocken so many of my New Years Resolutions, and I couldn’t be happier. And I owe most of that to you, so thank you.”

“Anything for you. I love seeing that smile on your face, especially knowing I helped put it there. But that’s just it, you’re doing all the work, I’m just here to cheer you on and offer support when you need it. You really are a star, I just want to watch you glow and reignite that spark that others tried to dim.”

I smile at him, then bite my lip as I remember I conversation from my last session with the doctor. “Jens…I thanks…Also, I’ve been meaning to…” He stays ever patient and smiles as I ramble, letting me get there on my own, “I talked to Dr Katelyn last week about my issues with intimacy and some fears, concerns, thoughts about our holiday. I know we’ll be alone alot and likely sharing a bed while we’re at your place and I just…I want to be open to things, but I feel like I’ve never-Nothing’s really ever been on my terms. I’ve always just gone along with what the guy wants. She suggested that maybe I should treat this relationship like a first. Like I’m in highschool and we’re touching each base. Slow and at my pace.”

He nods the whole time. “Of course. Everything is on your terms with me. I’d never push. I’m happy to cuddle, maybe make out and if we don’t have sex during the trip that’s fine. I don’t want you to feel pressured or like I’m expecting anything, because I’m not. I just want to spend time with you. And if you decide it’s too much to sleep in the same bed every night, you can go into the guestroom whenever you want. We can make sure it’s set up nicely for you so you can have a comfortable escape when you need it. A space that’s all yours and I won’t ever go into unless you want me to. We can set it up on the first day if you want. You can choose whatever decor you want.”

“Thanks. I appreciate that. But Jens, what if…What if I want to…you know, have sex at some point?”

“If we get through the first three bases and you are 100 per cent on board and comfortable with going the home run then we tackle that base like all the others. Slow and at your pace. And if we start and you need to stop then you just tell me and we stop, but I’ll be reading all the signs your body gives me and if I think it’s too much I’ll stop it, just like last time.”

I nod, “Okay. Do you mind if I continue to talk to Dr. Kate about it today?”

“I hope you do. But you never need my permission to talk about anything with her. There’s no NDA here, and even if there was it wouldn’t pertain to our relationship. Anything between us is fair game. I think you already know that, but I’ll remind you as much as you need, that will never change.”

“Thanks.” I glance down at the time on my computer screen. “I should start getting ready.”

“Alright, Beautiful. I’ll talk to you tonight. Have a good session and a great day.”

“You too-You have a great-You know what I mean.”

“I do. Bye.” He blows me a kiss as he ends the call and I can’t help but blush. As I drag myself out of the comfy bed and into the shower I think back to that day in December. I really did win the lottery when I accidentally spilt that hot cocoa on him. That was the best sweet mishap I’ve ever made.

Finally Completed: Final Fantasy III (SNES)

This is a roleplaying game in which an evil empire has dreams of reviving and controlling the power of magic in order to take over everything. It's up to a ragtag band of folks to stop them. Some spoilers herein!

They succeed in stopping the empire, hooray! Then a nihilistic imperial mage who styles himself like a jester says "'hey, maybe I should grab all the power for myself!" and the ragtag band is like "we should probably stop him too."

They do not succeed and the world as they know it is destroyed. Whoops! And that's only the midpoint of the story!

So this is definitely in the top five of Longest It's Ever Taken Me To Complete A Game Since First Trying It. I borrowed this game from Steve in junior high in the mid-nineties, and made it pretty far before being stymied by a late-game boss. At that point I'd had it for a few weeks and felt I should return it, plus I was frustrated. It's always stuck in my craw as a game I ought to have finished, so over the years I've made all kinds of attempts at it that inevitably petered out. Either I'd get distracted (because I dislike replaying parts of games I know well) or get stumped again.

Actually, in one memorable case I dropped it because I used an extremely detailed guide from the get-go, and a few hours in it felt like I was just ticking boxes on a to-do list rather than experiencing the adventure. Not ideal!

Last year, during an experiment with streaming on a regular basis, I thought I'd try again. This time the secret sauce was a romhack called the "Ted Woolsey Uncensored Edition", which you can read about in detail here. Essentially it's a careful rewriting of the game's script that still retains some of the charm and memorable phrasing of the original NA release, plus bugfixes, graphical tweaks, and quality of life changes. It made familiar parts of the game feel fresh again, and to my surprise I wanted to keep playing even after my stream experiment ended. I put it down for long periods of time but kept coming back, and this last weekend I was elated to finally see the game through to the end.

Because here's the thing, I really felt like I couldn't do it! Lurking in the back of my mind was that late-game boss from way back in 7th grade that I hadn't been able to beat, and I felt like everything after him must be even more difficult, so what hope did I really have? But actually it wasn't that bad, because I had two extra weapons:

1.) being unashamed to google quick questions when I was stuck or curious about something

2.) a friend with an encyclopedic knowledge of the game, who was also deeply interested in my progress and very encouraging.

(Google was fine, but I definitely recommend going the phone-a-friend route haha)

So anyway, the game. Graphics range from Good to Genuinely Impressive, the music's memorable, and every so often it surprises you by transcending its "tiny cute people with limited frames of animation" style to do something genuinely cinematic onscreen.

The story is excellent, and starts from a humble place of "young woman goes AWOL" then builds to asking, point-blank, how humankind can repeatedly hold on to the audacity of hope in the face of destruction and the ravages of time. These are timely questions for any era and honestly ones I personally struggle with at times. The catharsis I experienced at beating the final boss was a layered one, and I don't think the ending would have resonated nearly so well when I was 13.

So anyway, I'm glad I played it and saw it through, it's a classic for a reason, and I'll almost definitely go back to it again one day. Play it!!

The Owl House, Season 2, Episode 2, "Escaping Expulsion," First Impressions!

Best girl is BACK!

Okay, I've made no secret that my primary reason for checking this show out was the massive crossover fandom between it and She-Ra and PMMM, primarily due to Catradora and MadoHomu parallels with Lumity. Plus, the show itself looked fun and interesting, so I decided to give it a roll.

And no surprise, the Lumity thing has been my favorite part, and Amity has been my favorite character. And I just loved how the writers knew well ahead of time what a massive ship this was going to be so they just decided to fast forward past the rivalry bit and start building their friendship and establishing Amity's crush almost from the word GO. Which isn't to say it's felt rushed or anything; there has been a clear progression of Amity's feelings toward Luz and it does feel natural. I'm just saying they clearly know which side of their bread the butter's on and things have a LOT more forward momentum than your standard rivals-to-MAYBE-lovers, and the mutual attraction is 100% canon and was always intended to be. It helps that it's written by an actual queer woman who made no secret that Luz is bisexual and Amity is gay, so good on her.

Unfortunately, Amity has been AWOL for quite a while. Ever since the sports episode, in fact, owing in-series to her broken leg, but it's really because the focus needed to be elsewhere. Still, I'm really glad that she's back.

Anyway, here we finally meet Amity's oft-discussed but never fully revealed parents, giving them some much-needed characterization! And as it turns out, while our earlier impression of them being a bunch of Northwest-esque upper-class snobs was not incorrect, there's more to it than that.

See, Amity's family runs Blight Industries, a security firm that specializes in abominations custom-made for defense. Amity's mom is the CEO and promoter, and is definitely the controlling one. To again compare to Gravity Falls, she's what you get if you combine Mr. Northwest's classism and manipulative control over his family with Gideon's carny showmanship. And she has natural green hair. Meanwhile, her dad is the one who actually makes the abominations, is a bit of a scatterbrain prone to chasing after shiny things, and looks just so tired and fed up with his wife's antics and yet is just resigned to putting up with them. Also, he naturally has brown hair.

And as for Amity, she is a natural brunette but dyes her hair green. SYMBOLISM!

Anyway, Amity is usually the showgirl for her parents presentations, but lately her heart just hasn't been in it, owing mainly to her caring more about her friends. And when this leads to her botching a presentation, Mommy Mearest decides to confront the problem by throwing her societal weight around and getting Luz, Gus, and Willow expelled!

Anyway, plotwise things progress as one might expect: Luz agrees to take Amity's place as the showgirl for the Blights' abomination presentation, which puts her in mortal peril because Mommy Mearest is an asshole. Amity finally stands up to her family to protect her. Luz and Amity con the Blights' guests into thinking that the abomination actually kills them to get them to just order the damn things, because apparently child murder, including the presenters own DAUGHTER, makes for a great sales pitch! Daddy Dearest finally snaps and makes Mommy Mearest ease up on the trying to kill her daughter's friends thing because a bargain is a bargain. Luz, Willow, and Gus are un-expelled, and the Blights...well, we'll get to that later.

As for the b-plot, as predicted, as the resident glyph master, Luz now has to teach the Clawthorne sisters how to use magic without actually having direct access to magic! And surprise, surprise, they have completely different aims in doing so. Eda wants to dick around, experiment, and see how far she could push glyphs into going, while Lilith is really getting into the whole dutiful student role and wants to learn things from the ground up. This strikes me as funny, since it wasn't too long ago that it was Eda telling Luz to learn things from the ground up and not try to rush, but now that the shoe's on the other foot that all goes out the window. And it all goes horribly wrong, but of course the sisters reach a compromise, as it's Lilith's ground-up work that lets her understand glyphs' natures enough to figure out a way to make Eda's more creative ideas work. And they also discuss finding other glyphs than the four already known, probably setting things up for a future episode.

Okay, character stuff! AGAIN bringing things back to the Northwests, Mommy Mearest's way of controlling Amity really brings to mind Mr. Northwest's bell, and is very creepy. Not as creepy, as it's more fantasy-based and wacky, and Amity is already rebelling by the time Mommy Mearest was introduced, but the parallels are striking and probably intentional. We also have more of a reason for her being as controlling as she is, as her family's business kinda depends on it. Not a justication of course, but it's nice to have it rooted in more realistic motivations than just her being a snobby asshole. I do know that Amity's Weasley-twins older siblings don't get the same treatment as her. Maybe it's because they're natural green-hairs so they're more favored?

Anyway, Amity crushing on Luz is already established and has been so for some time. But now it's starting to be reciprocated, as Luz moves into the italicized Oh stage of their relationship. And it! Is! Adorable!!! Part of me wants Amity to run away to the Owl House and just live there from now on, in part to get her away from a toxic environment, but also because it means more Lumity cuteness, because I'm a sucker for that sort of thing.

And damn, good on Amity for crushing that crystal. Be interesting to see how this power play between her and Mommy Mearest continues. Nice to see that the twins have her back, even if they still love messing with her.

Also, I really like how the sisterly relationship between Eda and Lilith is shaping up. Now that they've buried the hatchet, it feels like their adolescent dynamic is resurfacing, because that's how it was when things were last good between them and they never learned how to be siblings as adults, so the constant competing, roasts, refusal to ask for help, and overall pride plays a major factor. We also get to see more of Lilith's goofy side, which is really endearing, and I love how she and Hooty are besties now.

And I legit cheered when the Golden Guard showed up to appropriate all of the Blights' abominations. He's got to set some kind of record for becoming a fan favorite so quickly after his debut in the second season. It also shows that the whole Emperor thing will play more closely than it did in the first season, which is very welcome, and also that he wants none of his subjects building their own forces, so THAT'S interesting.

Moving things back, Principal Bump was genuinely broken up about his favorite mischief makers getting kicked out. Aw, he really does care!

And congrats on the puberty, Gus.

Destiel Chronicles

Vol. LXXXVIII

It was a love story from the very beginning.

The Empty is Coming (Part. II)

(12x18)

Hello dears! How are you feeling for tonight's episode? I'm not ready...

Okay, i had to make a whole meta for this episode for the huge symbolism related to Sacrifice and the Empty.

Castiel walking on the Empty, a prelude...

When episode 12x18 starts, we have another dar forest, representing the Empty, and a young guy named Jorred walking on it...

If you pay attention, he wears a brown coat, blue pants. Is a blatant Cas' mirror, and the obscurity surrounding him, symbolizes the Empty.

Jorred gets trapped and then dies.

Where's Cas? Is reaching a high level of worrisome

Dean tries to call Cas but... He can't. So, all theses days he didn't have news about the angel and he is reaching high levels of worrisome.

I wrote an entire meta about this episode time ago, I don't want to be repetitive, so i will be quoting here things I already put in that meta. You can find the analysis here.

DEAN: Come on. Cas, it's me. I've been trying to get ahold of you for days. I don't know what's going on, but we got a line on Dagon...And we got our asses handed to us, even with the Colt. So...Could really use the backup. Call me back.

Dean is mad at Cas, first because he is pointing at he have been days trying to get ahold of him (remember Dean praying to him every night in Purgatory?) and then he is mad because he doesn't know what's going on with Cas. So basically, he is mad because Cas is not calling. Is not giving living signals.

SAM: So no luck with Cas, huh?

DEAN: Yeah, still AWOL.

SAM: All right, so let's find him.

DEAN: I've been trying, Sam. The GPS on his phone is turned off, and there's nothing in the system about some weird guy in a trench coat getting arrested or turning up dead.

This is the thing here, he reveals another details of why he is mad and worried, because Cas turn his GPS off! That means that maybe he doesn't want th to find him. And then, Dean is saying HE SEARCHED FOR HIM IN HOSPITALS AND POLICE INFO LIKE? Yeah... A little kind of desperate.

And if you pay attention bro the pic, you wikl find how worried is Sam watching his brother in that shape.

SAM: Right. Dean, it's Cas. I mean, this isn't the first time he's dropped off the map, you know? And whatever's happening, he'll be fine. He always is.

DEAN: Yeah.

This scene is very rich in body language. Also Sam assuming Cas will always be fine, is like settling the idea that something could take them by surprise anytime about the angel.

But watch Dean here while Sam tries to comfort his brother...

I will quote here what I wrote in my meta about this episode:

"Priceless... Avoiding Sam's eyes, looking to a side, dimples of discontent, that sniffing is like... He is so mad... He just can't stand it. Can't stand CAS not answering his phone calls, not being there for weeks. Not knowing if he is dead or alive. Makes feel so uneasy, he can't control what he is feeling... He is mad, but worried at the same time."

How do I fill this emptiness?

Not being able to have any hint of Cas, and feeling he was being rejected by him, the unrequited love idea hits Dean again.

Is big, cold, hole inside of him, and it needs to be filled immediately. And what Dean does, which will be the last time he does it? He hooks up with random waitress. Why? Well. I will quote here again my insights from the other meta.

"... and I know the fandom had pointed the "Castiel coded coat" this waitress is wearing... Like... "YEAH I'M JUST AN ASSHOLE FOR BEING IN LOVE WITH MY BEST MALE FRIEND WHO WILL NEVER LOVE ME BACK, HE ABANDONED ME AND DOESN'T' GIVE A FUCK IF I'M WORRIED OR NOT. LET'S JUST HOOK UP WITH RANDOM WAITRESS HERE AND HEY! THAT COAT REMINDS ME TO CAS DAMN!"

I want to add the waitress is not just dressed with the coat but with a pink dress too. The pink color will be very called in the incoming seasons. Is a symbolism of happiness. Related to Castiel's deal with the Empty made in season 14, and the ultimate Sacrifice for love and Castiel's love confession in season 15. But in this case, it talks about Dean. Dean's happiness is Cas and viceversa.

Another thing Dean did in this episode to fill the emptiness of his Unrequited Love was eating too much. As he always does. It maybe wouldn't caught our attention if Sam wouldn't watched him with disgust and scolding face.

Sheriff Barret Bishop and the Black Bill legend. (Cas and Empty mirrors)

Look how Sam describes the legend of Black Bill at first:

SAM: And when the fun was over, the satyr would, "feast upon the flesh of his victims until his belly was full to bursting with their moist, slippery meat."

I find this very interesting, because he talks about a party, something they celebrate (an orgy) that could be related with lust, the thing that will taken as a forbidden feelings in Castiel's POV in episode 14x15. And the punishment is became the monster's food. But but, is not the first time we see a monster feeding of people or energy in legends. In episode 14x17, the one that gave me the spec about Dean rescuing Castiel from the Empty, they talk too about this legend and how the mosntrrs feed from his prays. So, is this the Empty's story then? Is he feeding with energy from dead angels and dead demons? Hahaha just a few days and we will know.

Then, Castiel's mirror trying to do his best to change things, but by himself.

Sheriff Bishop: Moloch used his power to make us rich. After my father died in '97, I put a stop to all of that. Look, I couldn't...I never killed anybody. I just wanted to help people to make up for all the bad we've done. I wanted... To leave a legacy. - I kept him locked up. Hoped he'd starve to death.

Okay, this is kind of the idea of what Chuck did with the Empty. The thing is... The monster scapes.

And then we have the Sheriff saying "It was on him"

Sheriff Bishop: You should go.

SAM: No, sheriff, uh, we can help clean up.

Sheriff Bishop: No. This...I'll take care of it. It's on me. This? This is my legacy.

Again a Cas mirror doing the dirty work. It's on me. Is the same thought in Castiel's mind, and we will see it in the next episode.

Winchester's legacy:

SAM: But the people we saved, they're our legacy. And they'll remember us and then I guess...We'll eventually fade away, too. That's fine, because we left the world better than we found it, you know.

DEAN: I wonder what's gonna happen to this place. After we're gone, you think some hunter'll move in, keep fightin' the fight?

SAM: Yeah, I hope so.

DEAN: Yeah. Me, too.

Dean gets out his knife from his pocket.

SAM: What are you doin'?

DEAN: Leaving our mark. Here.

This is a parallel to 15x19, the fake bro ending. The dialogue is also a representation of THE FAMILY BUSINESS.

But you know what they did in 15x19, they carved Cas and Jack names too.

And you know what happened in episode 12x19: THE MIXTAPE OR THE WAY DEAN USED TO EXPRESS HIS ROMANTIC FEELINGS FOR CAS. So, this is another clue for us to think Cas will come back after bro only ending to hear Dean's true love confession. (I'm talking about tonight's episode.)

To Conclude:

More than another foreshadow of the Empty and Castiel's dead, we had once more Dean Winchester's unrequited love inner fight.

This is another proof Dean feels the same way as Castiel. He really feels his love is Unrequited and he will never be able to have Cas in the way he wants.

Even with Castiel's speech in the barn in 12x10, giving Dean some hopes and gifting him with the Mixtape, as a representan of his romantic love for him, Dean is facing now that maybe that confession was totally platonic. And it hurst him. That's why he behaves by trying to fill that empty with sex and food.

But it won't go away until both men complete their love circle.

Hope you like this, see you in the next one!

Buenos Aires, November 14th 2020, 10:30 PM

[iturbide]

Okay while I work on those questions, here are some things I already have -

1) This is functionally a no-recruitment run, so no need to worry about the other students. I've been considering treating it as a sort of Silver Snow run in terms of the other Beagles being unable to coincide with Edelgard's plans and making a break for it, if possible

2) I was deciding on if Byleth should have a unique name or not, leading to this: "Hmmm...going off of AWOL Byleth...Ayleth? No...just Leth? No...*dramatic gasp* BYLEFTH *insert maniacal cackling*

3) I was considering thinking of a route name for this AU, maybe something like Ebony Dawn? It starts off bleak and hopeless, but eventually the dawn will come...or something like that.

oh good I was really worried for a minute there about the possible recruited students left behind.  Even when it comes to her own classmates, though, I wouldn’t be surprised if they did cave to their own misgivings, especially those like Dorothea (who has such a hard time with the war) or Ferdinand (who despite all his sunny optimism might falter when his attempts at guidance are so consistently ignored).

also I snorted at ‘Byleft’ that’s so perfect I might need to swap over my tag for this because that’s just too hilarious

Also Ebon Dawn would be such a cool name???  You could also go with something like “Black Sun” -- eclipses are seen as moments of cataclysm or change, but the important thing is that they end: the world doesn’t end, and the sun always comes back in the end.  But please know that I am loving this concept so much already and I can’t wait to hear more. 👀

kissing her anywhere & everywhere so she won't wanna go either cos cheeky like that. 'it's alright here'] Janis: ['It's more than alright' the but don't need to be said 'cos duh 'when do we have to go?'] Jimmy: [keeps being very distracting but gives her a vague answer like 'we're got ages'] Janis: [is dubious but ain't that bothered obvs 'fashionably late is fine but can see your house from here so'] Jimmy: [carries on because trying to make a round 2 happen here as if they don't have somewhere to be. 'All I'm bothered about is if they can hear us from here.'] Janis: [has to kiss him 'cos the noise is too real] Jimmy: [so many kisses because he's such a clingy bitch we know & it's only slightly less needy than before obvs] Janis: ['I love you'] Jimmy: [says it back of course & how much he does] Janis: ['why the fuck do I wanna cry though?' is loling but hiding too] Jimmy: 'Baby'[makes her look at him because hands in her hair but gently though.
