Late Writeblr Intro!
Hello, friends!
I figured it was about time I made an actual blog intro of my own since I forgot to make one when I started this blog last year. Better late than never, lmao!
Pls, reblog, like, and/or reply to help boost the blog! šŸ’•
Let's get started:
Personal Stuff! šŸ’œšŸ©¶šŸ–¤
My name is Anna/Anya but you can call me Mystic, Ducky, or just Anya on this blog! My personal nickname is Ani and I adore it (:
I am an Asexual woman (my pronouns are she/her!) and I'm also personally an atheist who puts my faith in the spirits of Mother Nature, though I respect all other religions equally!
I'm Gen Z and Latina (Brazilian). I was raised bilingual (Brazilian Portuguese + English) and I love learning languages - currently, I'm working on learning French and Spanish! Career-wise I am studying in college to become a character designer and hopefully animator, as I want to pursue a career as an artist and writer! I also wish to have my WIPs published in the near future (:
Some fun facts about me!
My favorite shows are Critical Role, Game of Thrones, Castlevania, The Legend of Vox Machina (animated series), Star Wars, Voltron, The Dragon Prince, Avatar the Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, and DC Comics content, as well as many more lmao. I love watching movies and series!
My favorite Vox Machina characters are Vax'ildan and Percy (:
I am a younger sister šŸ’–
My hair is short and curly (pixie style, similar to the haircut Rapunzel has at the end of the Tangled movie!)
I adore listening to music, especially songs that can inspire me to write my WIPs! Playlists are a huge part of my writing process and something I really enjoy making.
I'm currently rereading Shadow and Bone (+ Six of Crows) and I am always looking for more good dark fantasy/historical fantasy books to read so book recs are always welcome! I also am a huge fan of the Percy Jackson series and Trials of Apollo (by Rick Riordan), though I'm usually more of a gritty/dark fantasy fan (like Game of Thrones)!
I have three dogs and two cats!šŸ˜ŗšŸ¶
I know how to play the piano, though I haven't done that in a while because things have been chaotic for me, but I'd like to start playing regularly again in my winter vacation.
I have worn glasses since I was 5 years old and have terrible eyesight without them (and some days with them, lol, so bear with me).
My friends and I are doing a DnD campaign every Sunday, where I play as a half-elf rogue named Aeryn (he/him). I'm adoring this adventure so far, it's so fun!!!
I love to bake and am rather good at it, but am a painfully average cook lmao (some specific recipes I make are actually rlly good, but it depends a lot on my mood and the 'alignment of the stars' lol)
I want to learn how to knit/crochet! šŸ§¶
I'm a theater nerd and love musicals (:
About my Writing!šŸ¹āŒ›
I write fictional works mostly in the genre of fantasy (high fantasy/epic fantasy/dark fantasy/historical fantasy/urban fantasy, etc. You name it!) and science fiction (space opera/cyberpunk/superhero, etc).
My works usually revolve around themes such as epic quests, secrets, adventure, rebels fighting an oppressive system, sibling bonds, acceptance/respect, outcasts, and much, much more! I love fluff and whump equally, and though my stories tend to focus on serious topics (or at least darker/heavier themes) within a fantasy/sci-fi setting, I like to have a good bit of humor, lighthearted fun, and comedy to my stories to lighten up the mood!

Same anon as the yeppers Shawn one, I have some more stuff I think Shawn would would do (this might happen periodically if you dont mind. SO many thoughts about AFTG and how they speak, and if i have any about shawn i might continue to send them ur way <3)
Weirdly enough I was thinking about it and lowkey I feel deep down in my soul that Shawn would know the swear words (and only the swear words) of a bunch of languages. Heā€™s monolingual, but he knows the raunchiest swear words, and when he and Jean start getting closer he like especially starts learning French ones. This is just another reason for why he needs to have so much press training lol. It eventually gets to the point where he starts pulling out words that Jean doesnā€™t know šŸ’€ Jean has to start carrying around a French dictionary or smth LMAOĀ 
Maybe this is bc shawn asks Neil to teach him some (shawn + neil would be uncontrollable i fear. The media loves them, their teams fear for their lives every time they open their mouths lmaoo), and because Neil was a teenager (on the run from the MAFIA) in both Montreal AND France heā€™s absolutely loaded. Canadian and French swear words are different due to more religious influence in Quebec (not francophone ((nor quebecois OR french)), so i dont know all of the differences between quebecois french and france french tho btw), so thereā€™s a high chance that Jean probably wouldnā€™t be familiar with Canadian ones. Tbh thereā€™s a high chance Jean wouldnā€™t be familiar with some of the more inappropriate French ones due to the fact that he was so young when he had to leave France šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ or he might have forgotten them because they arenā€™t in use anymore. Also in TSC it says briefly that he was homeschooled (lowkey forgot about this for a quick sec), so I think he wouldā€™ve been pretty sheltered? Wait that took a sad turn but anyways Iā€™m picturing something like this:
Shawn: do u ever just: tabarnakā—or is it just me
Jean: WhatĀ 
Shawn: omg.Ā 
Shawn: **sacrĆ© bleuĀ 
Jean: ??
Shawn: sorry doing a little victory dance. Not me outsmarting a French man at his own game??? Checkmate, putain!Ā 
Jean: ok well I know THAT one
I hope this made sense (idk if half the things i say make sense) and have a good day :) (or night idk your time zone but its like 2 oclock for me <33)
HII OMG i love having you in my inbox and getting to hear about your shawn headcanons fr omg so you're more than welcome to come back hehe
him knowing curse words in multiple languages is actually SO FUNNY to me especially him going out of his way to learn french ones so he can drop them around jean LMAOOO and jean being lost on them šŸ˜­ i think he would go out of his way to learn every french curse word to ever exist, just so he won't havw to put up with shawn knowing something he doesn't SHSGDHG
ALSO SHAWN + NEIL MENTION FROM YOU- i need to have some banter between them in my upcoming summer olympics socmed au omgg i think that'd be fun.
thank u for sharing omg it totally made sense hehe <333 (also omg feel like all the oomfs are from different time zones because it's 9 pm for me...)

tea or coffee: honestly I don't drink both of them too often. I drink tea when I am sick or I need something to warm me up because I hate cold. When it comes to coffee I drink it when I need to. My sleep schedule and insomnia are real bitches sometimes so I have to have something to help me not to fall asleep in the middle of the task or something. But I really like iced coffee, especially in the summer
dogs or cats: both. I love both so much it hurts because I can't have one. I have never had any pet and unfortunately it is not going to change soon and it breaks my heart šŸ’” But luckily a lot of my friends have pets, so guess where you can find me when we hang out? šŸ˜‚
can you play an instrument? Yup, I used to play guitar but now my heart is fully devoted to the ukulele, but I would love to learn how to play the piano too
whatā€™s your sign? Libra
favorite lyrics that pop into your head? the song originally is in Polish, but I translated it for better understanding, I hope that's okay
and to be water like this which gently wraps itself around you / warms your body, washes away the remnants of the lousy day / and calms down every nerve / amusingly will wrinkle your hands / and when you fall asleep lasts faithfully at your bed
do you have tattoos? I have four tattoos, the word unbreakable on my forearm and next to it there is a Vex's shadow (Vex is one of my favourite champs in league of legends and the shadow is her companion, so I one day I spontaneously decided I want my own shadow too lmao), above them there is a rose inspired by the one from beauty and the beast, and on the other forearm I have something like a map because I love travelling and only if I could afford it I would do it all the time
favorite place youā€™ve ever traveled? Malaga in Spain. I spent the best month in my life there, the place is beautiful and my memeories make it even more amazing
whatā€™s the last movie you watched? Strange World on Disney+, I loved it, such an amazing animation šŸ„¹
what languages do you speak? Polish is my native. I can speak English and I am learning Spanish hoping that someday it will be on the same lvl as English now. I was learning French for two years and as much as grammar wasn't hard for me pronunciation killed me and I am not able to say most things in French šŸ˜‚ In primary school and hight school I was learning German but I forgot it all and best I can do is introducing myself in it lol
do you have any hobbies? music is the biggest one I guess. I love listening to music, playing it, singing, dancing. Music is a huge part of my life. Now I can say that writing too, I am so glad I came back to it after so many years, it helps me so much with some issues, like a some kind of a therapy. And due to covid lock down I was so bored I started crocheting, the beginnings were hard but now I have some projects I am really fucking proud of even if they took months to finish. And I almost forgot playing video and board games!
you can hang out with one fictional character for an hour, who do you choose? So many amazing choices but for now I have to say that Eddie Munson šŸ˜‚
compliment yourself: shit this one is super hard- uh so maybe I would say that I am kinda proud of myself that I am handling two jobs and not giving up despite it is really hard sometimes. So yeah, congrats for me
@i-me-mine thank you for the tag šŸ„°šŸ„°

Tumblr media
I wanted to make a little list of headcanons for mukuro that I either posted on my old blog and forgot to transfer over here or only just thought about them and haven't posted about them lmao :3 It'll be primarily for across all of her verses/AUs, if ones are more specific to various verses/AUs I'll put what they apply to in bold. this is also a list I'll probably come back to every now and again to add/edit
Tumblr media
ā€” She loves making people squirm lol which is why she'll wear that type of pheromone perfume from time to time ESPECIALLY at like really fancy parties or in instances where she's around a lot of people lol Mukuro loves watching expressions shift even the slightest amount
ā€” Mukuro, no matter what verse, will always have her nails done in some type of manner. It'll either be something simple like a French tip, or a full set of a single color ( probably either black, dark purple, or nude color ) and she's even been known to do the neon color French tip style before. The shape varies from stiletto, coffin, or lipstick, and they're always long in length.
ā€” She doesn't really stick to just one type of scent, Mukuro's the type to change periodically/seasonally, but she is rather fond of peach or cherry blossom scents.
ā€” the same goes for lip products lol she doesn't typically stick to just cherry or strawberry she'll go for fun flavors like peaches and cream or blueberry smoothie.
ā€” Mukuro will always favor fashion/aesthetics over practicality lmao which is why she learned how to do basically anything and everything in heels and any type of armor she wears looks like it'd do anything but offer proper protection and that tends to show a lot of skin/skin tight. It's also why she'll more often than not get custom pieces ordered/made.
ā€” She also doesn't tend to wear anything that has a lot of layers, mainly because of the scarring on her back and just overall not loving the feeling of how heavy a lot of layers tend to be.
ā€” Mukuro doesn't really consider herself dressing for the ' male gaze ' She honestly wears that type of stuff because she really likes it and thinks the outfits are hot as hell so she'll refer to it as dressing for ' her gaze ' lol
ā€” Also she dresses like that to keep the appearances that she has amazingly high self-esteem, or at least help herself have more of one, when in actuality it's the opposite lol
ā€” While around people, Mukuro tends to suffer from Resting Bitch Face, but when alone ( and even when she doesn't think anyone is looking ) that fades into something that reflects such a deep-seated loneliness
ā€” Physical touch/affection is her main love language but other than the basic stuff like hand-holding and cuddling, Mukuro also loves it when someone brushes her hair or braids/styles it for her. ( plus it doesn't run the risk of her being too vocal about how nice she's feeling unlike getting a massage tends to do lmaoooo )
ā€” When she's standing next to someone and they make a playful/stupid remark, depending on how close they are in terms of friendship, she'll either just do the standard elbow nudge or the playful slap of the arm, but when she's close with someone she'll opt to do the type of nudging she really loves to do and that's a hip check. Maybe it's because her hips/thighs are pretty strong but she loves watching people stagger a bit when she hip-checks them lol.
ā€” LOOK AT ME IN THE EYES AND TELL ME SHE WOULDN'T KISS THE INJURIES OF OTHERS SHE'D PATCH UP ESPECIALLY IF SHE CARES DEEPLY FOR THE PERSON SHE'S PATCHING UP
ā€” bg3!mukuro, when you get on her good side/she finds you trustworthy enough/become her friend whenever she uses deception with someone if you lock eyes with her and the person she's talking to looks away, she will absolutely give a quick sly wink or her lips will quick lift up into a smirk
ā€” Mukuro loves softly singing to herself while she's bathing/showering and cooking, those are really the only times she sings unprompted
ā€” bg3!mukuro, whenever she has armor that would make sense to be barefooted, she'll opt for instead wearing some sort of strappy heel or thigh-high boot.
ā€” bg3!mukuro - this is her default camp/casual attire and this is her default armor and her default underwear
ā€” dragon!mukuro and verses associated with dragon!mukuro her hoard is gold and jars of literal hearts

LAMPOOO YOUR FRIENDS MIGHT BE RIGHT i donā€™t think iā€™ve ever seen a cut on a dog that doesnā€™t look unsettling they always make them look odd šŸ˜­ i mean i bet she looks still cute but at the same time THAT COULD VE A SKINCRAWLER!
at first it was meant to be a little belittling but now heā€™s gotten used to the nickname like heā€™s more likely to call her sweetheart that y/n and just waaaitt till he slips up in front of his friends and theyā€™re like ā€œwho the FUCKK is your sweetheart..ā€ i will try to make more tension tho šŸ˜“ i remember i promised this anon waaaayyyy before i even wrote the first chapter that iā€™d make their progress and tension quicker and more.. iā€™ll do my best!
I LOOOOVE MULTILINGUALS there is something so beautiful about it and i actually had a phase where i tried to learn so many languages (iā€™ve tried learning korean which at least i can read hangul now, i learned chinese and can read some basic stuff, learned japanese for a bit but already forgot it, tried learning thai spanish arabic and french too but iā€™m too greedy i canā€™t learn all of that) unfortunately i have the worst attention span ever so i never am able to fully commit to learning languages šŸ˜“
24K FOLLOWERS YOURE LITERALLY A CELEB OMGGG i feel you on that tho sometimes i canā€™t be bothered to proofread before continuing to write so i just read the last few paragraphs i wrote and call it a day lmao. also iā€™ll totally read you my stories donā€™t worry šŸ˜‰ THANK YOU FOR THAT THO i always appreciate when you reassure my on my writing ilysm you donā€™t get it <3

1. Yeah we range from 50-70 alters. Recently, we went under a lot of fusions and integrations of parts that have similar roles and trauma. So, weā€™re at like 49 or 48 rn. (Thanks simply plural for keeping track)
2. Nope.
3. Yeah, a few. Weā€™ve got Maleficent and Rylan who are the demons of the system. Then we have one of our caretakers Dahlia whoā€™s a vampire. And yeah, thatā€™s it mainly LMAOA
4. Heavily
5. Yeah! A lot of use use Neo pronouns and actually use e/em/eirs, which is also a neopronoun.
6. Yeah Rylan is unstable but heā€™s getting better.
7. Yeah. Itā€™s funny to look at when theyā€™re not in the front and see how much they misspell things.
8. Depends on the alters switching places. Most of the time itā€™s like that where thereā€™s little to no amnesia but with newer alters or those who are more busy in the inner world and donā€™t front often, the amnesia so bad
9. Our communication is based on feelings and sometimes thoughts. Most of the time, we communicate through feelings about certain topics or objects, but sometimes thoughts are leaked through too. Like the wall is semi-permeable for us.
10. Our inner world is kinda complex. We have a fronting room but beyond the doors is a never needing hallway which leads to different areas such as homes and the Gatekeeper library.
11. I forgot the meaning of exo-memories. Someone remind me of it please!
12. Boldly, we have Tourette syndrome so we all have tics, motor and vocal. Some alters have more than the others while others can have small or big differences.
13. Depends on whoā€™s fronting, but Iā€™d say we do a pretty good job at masking to the point where our friends think weā€™re the host before LMAO
14. In headspace, we have a lot of British alters but our body kinda sucks at portraying accents so it sounds the same. Tones though range with higher pitches to lower.
15. Currently, we are learning French and some alters know a little Dutch. We mainly speak English
16. We use Simply Plural to track switches, front stuck sessions and alter count. We donā€™t use pk because we donā€™t really understand it yet but I think people should use it more often if theyā€™re active on discord and are a system. Itā€™s fun to set up things
17. To close friends we are. We also have a system page and a tik tok where we interact with the community in a healthy manner.
Space themed System ask game based on common fakeclaim "criteria" because these things are valid and cool actually
šŸ›°-Do you have a large headcount?
šŸ‘¾-Do any alters in your system have typing quirks?
šŸš€-Does your system have any Non-human alters?
ā˜„ļø-Is your system neurodivergent?
šŸ”­-Does your system use neo Pronouns?
šŸŒ -Do any of the alters in your system have dyed hair?
šŸŒ™-Are there any nonverbal alters in your system?
šŸŖ-Does your system have Angry or "dangerous" persecutors?
šŸ’«-Do your littles use 'little-speech?'
šŸŒŒ-Does your system have little to no amnesia between switches?
šŸŒŸ-Does your system have fairly clear communication?
šŸŒ˜-Do you have a large or complex headspace?
ļæ½ļæ½ļæ½-Do any alters in your system have exo-memories?
šŸ‘½Does your system have any tics?
ā˜€ļø-is your system bad at masking?
āœØļø-Do any alters in your system have an accent?
šŸŒŽ-Do any alters in your system speak in a different language?
ā˜ļø-Does your system use things like pluralkit and simply plural?
ā­ļø-are you out about being a system?
This will probably flop but!!! I had fun making it<3
Endos and their supporters dni :')

Can you do headcanons about what the Bowers gang is doing when they're getting bored ?
(Lmao sorry i should write in French XD)
Okay now i may or may have not forgot to write that in what feels like a year ago but at list iā€™m doing it . (Iā€™m really sorry for the delay btw )
How do i tell you that i have no idea what iā€™m going for but letā€™s go !! Some details are based on the book .
First off when they are alone :
Henry :
Henry isnā€™t bored often since his dad always has some painfully long chores for him do . But when he has some free time and the guys arenā€™t around he just kinda hangs around his room and just lies down in his bed with some music on , he does that simply because he doesnā€™t have much interests that arenā€™t hatred relatade . Sometimes he goes out on walks in the barrens and sits down next to a tree and smokes ,probably waiting for kids to bully but most times when he goes there he doesnā€™t have a clear idea of what to do .
Patrick :
Now , we all know what Patrick does when heā€™s bored . He kills those animals :it started with just suffocating cats and dogs in the fidge where he left them for a few days and watch them being dead after . But over the years he started to become more violent with them since the last thing didnā€™t felt as exciting anymore . So he started to open their insides and putting them in the fridge like disturbing christmas decorations . I guess he should use this time to see a phycologist .
Victor :
As the Ā«Ā smartĀ Ā» one Vicā€™s the only one that as real interests : He likes to draw landscape and characters , he even draws his friends sometimes but he feels like it would be weird if they knew . He often feels frustrated because he canā€™t do something and ends up abandonning the idea or starting over and over until he cracks and throws it away . He also tries to learn how to play guitar but like his drawing skills, it annoys him not to be able to succeed something and he just explodes . He doesnā€™t even know where did he got hi sguitar , he just has it .
Belch :
Reg cannot stand to be alone and bored , it doesnā€™t matter the time of day or night honestly . He calls Vic on the phone or straight up shows up at his door just to talk or watch a movie or actually anything that they could easily do alone but it doesnā€™t matter until the next morning when belch got back to his house at house at 4AM and Vic didnā€™t slept much either . When Vic isnā€™t available he just kinds of ride around in his car rambling about some things .
When theyā€™re all together :
Now when theyā€™re all together it is a different story since itā€™s almost a kind of a routine for them. First they ride around town with the muic blastig. (In general you can very much hear from at least a mile away ). Then they look to beat some kid , if they find one then happens whatā€™s intended , if not then they go somewhere and just smoke and talk about random things for 2 hours.
Okay so it took me a long time to write and a even longer time to have the motivation to write but i hope you like it !

Where to even begin
(OP you said it was okay to pour use this as an excuse to pour our heart out, so I'm taking you up on that, wall of text ahead lmao)
She had to live through death once, and even if it was reverted later, she never forgot it. For the longest time she was extremely paranoid and basically assumed that she could be killed any second. (She was proved right again and again, which didnt help) She had like 3 safehouses, further and further away from spawn. She has insomnia, too, because of nightmares.
Pomme is a sweet but serious little egg, and she cares so much about everyone.
One defining feature of her would be the fact that she had to grow up too fast, and that she knows it, and that she hates it. The second she was adopted, everyone and everything around her more or less made her understand that she was in danger, so she grew up anxious.
More than her own death, she worries a lot about losing her siblings and resolved to train up in order to protect them.
She hates mines because it's just making it more dangerous for the eggs for no reason... and it reminds her of the fake Willbur return party and the explosion that ensued. She wasn't teleported away. She was in the middle of the explosion. She thankfully didn't die but she also lived through that yknow
She's a writer! I think it was Aypierre who suggested she wrote what she did every day so all her parents could easily catch up if they didn't connect in a while. So yeah, she writes. A LOT. A fact that her french parents like to tease about, but they also always make sure to read everything.
After learning about the presidential dinner fiasco, and how code monsters took chayanne and tallulah's appearance, she came up with a secret code with her parents to show that she wasn't a code monster. (Giving them her favorite flower, the cornflower)
Nowadays, she seems way less outwardly stressed, but in the way that she got used to it, sort of, but also because she's stronger. Now, when she knows danger is near, she simply gets angry, gears up and prepares herself to get rid of it. She's a bit like Etoiles for this.
Now onto the interactions! Tbh I'm not 100% sure if all the interactions related to the death family are 100% accurate, but at least that's what I percieved:
Philza: she trusts him a lot, because he's Etoiles' friend and a good dad and a good warrior. A trust worthy adult overall. She often turns to him with a sarcastic remark whenever Etoiles throws a Gamer Tantrum that ends up with him rage quitting and her being left alone, and Phil consistently reassures her that Etoiles cares about her. Overall i think she meshes well with Phil because she's a mature kid, similar to his own, and he's a responsible adult, someone she can trust 100%.
Tallulah: she's Pomme's beloved sister! They are both very sensible to the other's emotions and are always supportive. They had a big moment when Tallulah was hurt about Pomme and Dapper joking about being abandonned, and in response Pomme immediately apologized with a very heartfelt letter that assured Tallulah that she was loved and that Pomme would always support her. I don't know how they interact usually, but I know they love and trust eachother very much.
Chayanne: honestly idk much about their relationship, but they do seem to have taken the role of protector of the eggs. The video showing the eggs leaving comes to mind, with Chayanne leading in the front while Pomme walked at the back of the group, scythe in hand, ready to defend the others.
Etoiles: Etoiles wasn't too close to Pomme at first but still made it his mission to make her Unkillable by dumping all of his best gear and items on her. Time did its thing, and now he actively enjoys having her around and it's reciprocated. Etoiles is like a pillar to Pomme. He trains her, he explores dungeons with her, he's her number 1 fan and if anything dares to hurt her, hes there to make it disappear asap. Etoiles promised Pomme that as long as he was alive, he'd always protect her and bring her home, wherever she was... and she fullheartedly believes him. Etoiles is also Etoiles, and he still loves to tease her. Pomme has also become unimpressed by his Gamer Tantrums.
And because I couldn't stop myself, here are her interactions with her other parents:
Baghera: she was the first to really show immediate interest in Pomme and quickly built a bond together. She's always taking into account her daughter's emotions. They are like besties and spent a lot of time building together. Unfortunately, with baghz' lore coma + the egg kidnapping + purgatory, Pomme hasn't spent as much time with her as with other parents, but they still love each other very much. Baghera is the only parent who willingly stayed with the eggs at the end of Purgatory, after all.
Bad: they first bonded via Bad and Bagh's friendship, and little by little, by spending late nights with Bad and Dapper, they became closer and eventually saw each other as father and daughter. Pomme admin's sleep schedule was fucked up for a while, and her french parents teased her for only ever connecting when Bad was there (very late in France, making it hard for them to spend more than a couple hours with her) But yeah, they're very close! With Baghera, Bad is probably the most sensitive to her emotions and always does his best to be there for her. Pomme simply loves to tag along and help with whatever Bad's doing, along with Dapper. They're all in cahoots.
Aypierre: Pomme loves him, but also probably facepalms a lot more in his presence than anyone else's. She had to witness his and Maxo's romance live, and helped to build the furry club, and overall is always a bit suspicious whenever Aypierre wants to show her a 'new project' (But quickly forgets it the moment Aypierre shows her his impressive builds) They do have fun hanging out and building together. Despite not being good at pvp, he always does his best to support her in any way he can, and doesnt hesitate to spoil her if she ever needs something. He would probably burn the world down before hurting her.
Kameto: there was a moment where Pomme angsted a lot about Kameto and why he wasn't there. She started thinking that maybe, he wasn't there because of her, because she's a bother. Eventually, she stopped talking about it, but its still a sore subject to her. I think if he showed up again, the angst would probably resurface even harder, but for now, she's focused on protecting her siblings and trying her best to be happy.
Antoine: like Etoiles, he wasn't that close to her at the beginning, but still took his responsibility as a father very seriously, wherever he could help (he was the one who went to manually teleport Pomme to her room when NINHO's system failed during an attack). He's blunt with her, and always talked to her like to an adult, honestly. They had a tough conversation after her first death, him trying to explain to her that life without death doesn't really have meaning, but then again. She was like 1 week old lmao. He (almost) never lies to her, and he trusts her to never lie to him. Still no fighting skills though, so in terms of safety and protection, it'd be more accurate to say that Antoine is Pomme's egg.
Calling all French cc mains or French QSMP fans!!
Pomme is going to appear in my fic I'm writing! I know, similarly to Chayanne, she's passionate about being strong and protecting her siblings, and like Tallulah she enjoys flowers, but not much else!!
This post is your platform for gushing about your girl!! Please reblog and infodump to your heart's content about Pomme as a character! I'd love to include more depth to her than her protectiveness!
If it helps, here's some additional context for her appearance in the fic:
She'll be with Etoiles
Her, Etoiles, Phil, Chayanne & Tallulah will be doing a dungeon together
She might appear more than this later on but I currently don't have the chapter(s) planned if she does!
So if there's any specific ways she interacts with those 4 characters, let me know! Either way, go crazy writing analyses for her here! I am your vessel for Pomme appreciation. :D

OKAY! Here's my full commentary of the night, from two middle aged unmarried women, a young sapphic that wasn't really watching, and me, the only person in the room that has watched Eurovision before. We're all performers (one former professional dancer, one dance teacher at university, one student dance teacher, and one singer in training) and we had some... opinions. Okay, let's go!
Cyprus: Bad Romance, if it was sung by Shakira with added yodelling.
Albania: SHE'S GOT GAS (lmaooo Graham Norton mentioned flatulence during the postcard and it ruined us).
Israel: Quite a bop, though that girl did not have legs, she had sticks. (Also the dancer on the front left had pulled his calf by the end lmao.) Thought it was an ironic choice of song name for the country that's been bombing Palestine.
Belgium: Too angsty for Eurovision.
Russia: Brilliantly wacky - very Eurovision. We in the living room are slightly worried for their safety after tonight. Awesome.
Malta: OH YEAHH, THAT BANGED. That's a Top 40 in the UK for sure. That's the living room favourite for now.
Portugal: "I don't know where I belong-" "I'm from the deep south." "Of Portugal."
Serbia: "This is like when three... Unmarried women in their 40s are drunk on New Year's Eve and go: 'Hey, what if we did Eurovision?'" / "Destiny's Inappropriate Auntie." (thanks Graham.)
UK: Alright (definitely better than our last one), but we spent most of our watch session talking about how my aunt literally taught one of the dancers two years ago.
Greece: WE SPENT MOST OF THE SONG TALKING ABOUT THOSE DANCERS. THE AR DIDN'T QUITE WORK 100% LMAOOO. Also her catsuit? Impeccable. That's a Bond girl right there.
Switzerland: We had so much to say about that one. It sounded like Writing's On The Wall. It looked like performance art. It was shot like a Bond opening. Then he started WIGGLING. AND HIS SHADOW MADE HIM LOOK LIKE HE HAD A MULLET.
Iceland: WE WANT THEM TO WIN. THAT WAS SO GOOD. THAT WAS SATIRE. I WANNA GO TO THE PUB WITH THEM. THAT WAS AWESOME. "How does it keep getting better" HOW ABOUT YOU TELL ME!!!
Spain: Ah. A 6 metre moon. We were hoping for a staging malfunction.
Moldova: Learn some Breath Control lady. Also those backing dancers were the best part. One of them looked like Michael McIntyre.
Germany: Good LORD. That was the cheesy filler song from a musical, with the addition of a hand near constantly giving everyone the finger.
Finland: YOOOOOOO. Okay. That was like, incredibly ironic to say they weren't allowed to put their middle fingers up after what just happened in Germany... Lmao. Anyway! That was awesome. Did you see the audience? They were going crazy. So were we. Hope that wins. Living room favourite.
Bulgaria: Pretty staging. Pretty lady. Pretty voice. Ehhhhh song.
Lithuania: AYYYE. THAT WAS TOO MUCH FUN. The choreography was terrible, in the absolute best way. We loved that, a lot.
Ukraine: Ukrainian folk rave. An unexpected bop. No idea what was happening with the visuals. Why did she murder Orville.
France: Very nice song, always love the sound of the French language. We spent three minutes talking about why we dislike the French.
Azerbaijan: Great song. We spent two minutes trying to remember the name of Little Mix song I always sing "My lemons" to the chorus.
Norway: EXCELLENT SONG. However, we could see why Graham Norton said not to look at the screen. Good GOD what was that choreography. Who's idea was the devils.
Netherlands: Kinda forgot what nation that was: some great African influences. Anyway, tonight the 80s reign supreme. Why they were dressed like airline staff, I don't know.
Italy: Very glam rock. We spent a minute talking about Estonia's entrant from last time.
Sweden: Oh, that was so cool. That was the kinda song I can imagine hearing on the music channel in a hotel room where it's the only channel in English. That guy could go mainstream.
San Marino: WHY IS FLO RIDA HERE (still don't like San Marino after their dentist beat us last time).

my "Crowley isn't attracted to women" take
for @spnprideweek - day 2 - mlm
cw: dicussion of homophobia & transphobia all in all I wanted to highlight how canon gay Crowley is bc I love him šŸ’• thank u spn for Crowley even tho he deserved better
in the last weeks I've realized there's a huuge consensus in the fandom for pansexual Crowley. if you're pan or not and wanna hc Crowley as pan, power to you! but what's bothering me is the non-discussion of it all. the way it seems obvious for everyone. whereas, to me, Crowley has been canonically gay all this time.....
disclaimer: I'm aware Mark Sheppard alledgely said he saw Crowley as pansexual, however I can't even take these words for canon without context. Especially not when a year later he'd say Crowley's sexuality didn't matter. The way Mark Sheppard talks about characters' sexuality is more a "why are people making a big deal let them be" than "the character doesn't care." Moreover, actors pov can't be taken as canon imo. Jensen Ackles thought Dean straight for so long when Dean's been bi all this time as well. Sometimes actors are biased by their own experiences & stereotypes!
disclaimer #2: on god I don't wanna start discourse lmao. I just wanna share my silly thoughts about a tv show & question the way Crowley's sexuality is written in this silly homophobic tv show. don't @ me about what's making you think Crowley is indisputably pansexual bc I assure you I already know your points
That being said, here's why I think Crowley is a bear, a gay man, a trans gay man actually, a homosexual, who isn't attracted to women & some food for thoughts about why the unquestioned consensus towards pan Crowley could have roots in both homophobia & panphobia.
I don't think we can think of Crowley as your usual demon. We know too much about Crowley's life as a human, and the numerous ways in which he acts un-demony, almost humanly after. Considering him simply like a demon with no concept of gender preference who would be pan ā€œby defaultā€ wouldnā€™t be right with his character. But we also can't question his sexuality in the exact same way we would a human's.
It also can't be thought in the same way as angels': as once-humans demons do have a concept of gender. Crowley especially cares a lot about his gender presentation and the way he's addressed. Not only does he literally sell his soul for a bigger d*ck as a human ; as a demon he uses the same vessel where other demons are shown to move once they had to leave one ; and for the few hours Crowley's possessing a woman, he clearly states he should still be referred to as king.
This will all be used for homophobic & transphobic jokes in the show, but I'll get back to that later on. Gender does matter to Crowley's identity, and I think it could be extended to his sexuality.
I've seen numerous descriptions of it all saying Crowley's sexuality was "ambiguous" and I guess it is, as he never explicitly used any label. However "ambiguous" doesn't mean bi or pan. It doesn't mean anything besides the fact we can't draw a clear-cut conclusion of his sexuality.
Imo we can actually draw a clear-cut conclusion of Crowley's sexuality but yeh, I'm getting there.
----------------
Let's take a look at canon events around Crowley & sexuality!
His character introduction is him enjoying making a homophobe man kiss him for a deal
It is rumoured that he was a demon's lover (Lilith's)
He heavily flirts with Bobby
He french kisses Bobby for a deal and takes a pic
He never kisses a woman on screen (tell me if I forgot anyone!)
He flirts with every single man he sees, and even more strongly when it's making the other uncomfortable
The other parent of Crowley's son is never mentioned nor even brought up
He has two orgies that we know of
He has sex with a demon who's possessing a woman (Lola) when he was addicted to human blood
He dates, has sex with, and asks Dean to rule Hell with him. He's in love with Dean
On late spn he drinks fruity drinks
He flirts with and implies he had sex with an angel (Naomi)
He flirts with Death (Billie)
He's into BDSM
I'm not gonna go into details with all the sexual stuff he says bc there's a lot.... But it's always about gay sex. (once again, if I'm forgetting smth pls tell me nicely)
Now, with all that I'd like to question specifically the elements people use to say Crowley is canonically attracted to women.
He has two orgies that we know of
Thereā€™s the one Crowley has while heā€™s himself possessing a woman ; iirc itā€™s a foursome with two other men and one woman. Crowley still counts as a King, as the show makes sure we know, admitedly this dialogue implies we should still think of him as a not-very-manly-man.
Honestly, if one is convinced Crowley is attracted to women based on this scene.. okay. Personally I donā€™t see it because the orgy is unplanned, itā€™s an opportunity Crowley takes. Is he even attracted to the two other men?? Who knows. We donā€™t even know if Crowley even touches the other woman, thereā€™re so many ways to have group sex. Even if he did, having sex with one woman doesnā€™t make it impossible for him to be homosexual.
The second orgy is with Dean. Crowley describes it then: ā€œWe've done extraordinary things to triplets.ā€ Itā€™s interesting how before I went to check, I thought it was clear the triplets were women. But not at all! Iā€™ve been tricked by heteronormativity myself. So this is up to interpretation. Even though the way the show doesnā€™t make sure we know the triplets were women is pretty telling (as Iā€™ll talk about later).
It is rumoured that he was Lilith's lover
Well, this is a rumour. In this relationship Crowley would know Lilith as a demon possessing a woman, and Lilith would know Crowley as a demon possessing a man as well. Who's even to say they met in their vessels to sleep together. That's the kind of cases in which the ambiguity of Crowley human/demon situation makes it impossible to draw any kind of conclusion towards Crowley's attraction to women. Also if anything Lilith is clearly a lesbian lmao.
He has sex with Lola when he was addicted to human blood
Same thing here, the relationship is one of demon/demon. Though we do now they do meet in their vessels to sleep together. Besides that, the sex happens while Crowley is at a low point. She's the one bringing him human blood, which makes the sex more of a transaction than anything. It does fit a very grey area of consent which would be fair to question.
We can't know for sure whether the demon possessing the woman was a woman as well, but let's say she was: 1/ Crowley having sex once or twice with a woman doesn't prevent him from being homosexual. 2/ What is he seeing if not a demon's true form? 3/ Wasn't he in a self-destructive mental state?
It's a stretch, imo, to assume Crowley was attracted to her.
He flirts with and had sex with Naomi / flirts with Billie
This one is so ridiculous to me bc Naomi is an angel and as a demon, Crowley sees her true form. We don't even know who was her vessel when they had sex.
The flirt thing is interesting however, bc iirc Naomi and Billie are the only "women" we see Crowley actually flirt with. During the orgies or the demon sex there's no flirt involved. It's interesting bc, as Cas would say: "Naomi's vessel is a woman. Naomi is an angel."
Same case for Billie who's a reaper then Death. Spn is pretty unclear about how the whole thing works but we know reapers are kind of angels. In any case, I won't go as far as saying Billie has any connection to gender.
Moreover, the way Crowley flirts with them is pretty light next to everything else Crowley says to men. It's pretty personal, I'm aware, but I do relate a lot with the way Crowley flirts with them VS how I flirt with men just because (and I'm a lesbian).
Anyway! Both Naomi and Billie are supernatural creatures, which brings the count of women Crowley flirts with to... zero.
-> What I take from all that is that Crowley is attracted to men for sure ; to angels and demons ; and doesn't care about the genitalia involved in the sex he has. We have nothing about the kind of relationships he had as a human. His gender presentation matters a lot to him. The only long-term commitment he has is with Dean. I wouldn't even say he had a committed relationship with Gavin's other parent bc we don't know anything about them.
----------------
But what's my deal with homosexual Crowley? One can wonder, if Crowley doesn't care about bodies, doesn't that mean he can still be written as pan?
No! First because sexual attraction isn't about genitalia (even if transphobes would argue the contrary but they're transphobic so...). And second, well....
I would refer to this point as "how do I know Crowley isn't attracted to women? bc Dean is"
I'm convinced that if the show wanted to write Crowley as anything other than a gay man, it would have been way more obvious.
This is a show who wrote Dean catcalling a faceless woman on the street, for no other reason than to remind the viewers Dean was attracted to women & to balance it with the following homoerotic scene.
One could say spn doesn't have lots of women characters to begin with, but that's my point exactly: when spn wants to show attraction towards women, they do find women for people to be attracted to. Hell, they even give Gavin some girlfriend but never ever bring up the topic of Gavin's other parent. Even though an entire episode is dedicated to learning about Crowley's past.
What's important to understand Crowley's sexuality isn't the people he slept with ; it's the people he doesn't show interest in.
The absence of something is the presence of the thing, blablabla. It's a way to look at homosexuality that heteronormativity makes hard to see because, unconciously, we don't tend to question attraction towards the expected gender. One would ask for a 10 pages essay on why a character is gay, but one would need only a 2 sec kiss to assure a character's heterosexuality or attraction towards the expected gender.
----------------
In Crowley's case, his attraction to men is a huge part of his character right from the beginning (thanks god, at least no one's questioning that). Spn as a show that hears what the fans are saying and twists writing accordingly, is perfectly aware of that. Yet rather than pushing women at him along the course of the show to remind everyone how Not Gay Crowley is - the opposite happens.
Yeh, Lola, Naomi, Billie, they all happen in the later seasons. But even then, the show somehow can't write Crowley as attracted to a human woman.
What happens then is: not only does Crowley fall for Dean ; he engages in some BDSM play with Lucifer : and he switches from drinking only the finest Scotch to fruity cocktails.
The BDSM thing as well as the drink thing are choices rooted in stereotypes, that's how spn is! But it does canonize Crowley's homosexuality. They're depriving him of his "masculinity" as the show goes on, because they purposely write him as homosexual. I don't think spn would have ever written a bi or pan character that way.
We learned a few days ago that Crowley died in a gutter. He died in a gutter for a bigger d*ck. I'm just gonna refer to Oscar Wilde & Mika on this : "some of us in the gutter are looking up at the stars."
The "referred to as king" scene isn't about Crowley being a demon and so not caring about gender - it's the opposite. Other demons are the ones poiting out Crowley's vessel. This is a transphobic joke. It's the demon edition of the "gay boy in a dress" transmisogynistic trope.
Viewers aren't supposed to be on Crowley's side ; we're supposed to be giggling with the other demons while Crowley is being emasculated. Crowley gets a woman vessel because he's a not-very-manly-man, because he's a trans man, because he's homosexual.
And I know that bc Dean is written as bi, and all they're doing is reaffirming the way he does like women while being extra subtle with his love for men.
Meanwhile Crowley is losing influence and power, loses his authority as he loses his throne in Hell, gets humiliated by Lucifer, until all his character revolves around is his love for Dean. The way Crowley is then protrayed as some lovesick ex who can't move on is, imo, a straight man fantasy. Crowley's love is both used as predatory and as a tool to validate Dean's Peak Masculinity.
Spn has been burying their gays all along, and Crowley was right there being punished for not only being in love with Dean but for not being attracted to women. For never being able to be a "normal" guy. For never being able to be seen as a "normal" guy. For checking every homophobic stereotypes in the books. Crowley as a human dies because he's a trans man. Crowley as a demon dies because he's homosexual.
----------------
That's what leads me to be uncomfortable with the way the fandom seems to have a consensus towards pansexual Crowley. (Once again: idc about people's personal hc of Crowley as pan, I just want to think critically about the way no one thinks twice about it & accepts it as canon so easily. Hell, just bc I dared to ask what started the pan Crowley confirmation I got accused of erasing his pansexuality. All I did was ask a question.)
To me, it feels like erasing everything his character went through because he was gay. And it seems to be taken from a reasoning which is going to assume Crowley is attracted to women.
I mean: the reasoning would go "oh, Crowley clearly has a non-straight sexuality -> he's attracted to men -> he's pan" His attraction to women being accepted by default, without needing any backup. And when I look at the canon I see nothing implying he'd be attracted to women. Taking Crowley's attraction to women for granted is following an heteronormative thinking.
Being into people isn't all about who one sleeps with. It's about love. And when we look at what spn shows about Crowley's close relationships, the only meaningful one he got is with Dean. When Rowena wants payback for Crowley making her kill Oskar, she goes for his son.
And it's SO interesting to me because if angels can't be in love because they don't have a soul - can demons? as they're beings with a destroyed soul? And if so, how powerful of Crowley to still fall in love with Dean Winchester.... the power of gay love :) (Crowley šŸ¤ Cas)
----------------
To conclude all this with some more stuff to think about if, like me, you love questioning everything:
While it's not wrong per se to hc Crowley as pan, it can be worth questioning what's making us so sure we collectively just vibe with it? To me there's a few things: - As I was saying: heteronormative bias - Crowley being a non-fully-human character - Crowley being masculine (despite the show's attempts to erase that) - Crowley being into BDSM - Crowley flirting and making sexual remarks in every context
These, unconsciously, gives a vibe of a character who's "outside" of the gender norm, not making big deal of their sexuality, not even questioning it. This creates this idea of "ambiguity" around Crowley's sexuality. The way Crowley particularly seems to be really chill about sex, is a demon (so what does he know about gender?), and heavily flirty, ... is what most people will link to pansexuality. That doesn't mean thinking of Crowley as pan is being problematicā„¢ ; this means in western medias that's what fills the "pansexual character" imagery (like basically: the Jack Harkness type).
However, when we look at it like that, none of these elements are defining of pansexuality. None of them are excluding him from homosexuality. If not stereotypes.
That's where it gets personal ; but it does make me feel like the huge consensus towards a pansexual Crowley (when there is no clear-cut evidence of it) is erasing the complexity of homosexual experiences. As I said at the begining: I'm happy if pansexual people can relate to Crowley ; everone's free to headcanon. But saying Crowley is canonically pansexual is a stretch - and a take rooted in homophobic stereotypes.
Imo Crowley may have been created with all these traits pushing towards a pan reading of his character. However, as the show went, he was clearly written as a homosexual man. The changes in his portrayal took a turn to be specifically homophobic. He gets imagery that only strictly homosexual characters got (such as drinking fruity cocktails like Aaron. Meanwhile Dean, on the same scene, is allowed beer & whiskey.)
We're used to taking spn's homophobic rep and jokes to make it our own. Yet it seems, when it comes to Crowley, the fandom doesn't see it.
Sometimes people aren't attracted to the gender heteronormativity expects them to be attracted to.......... sometimes people are gay and it's not an umbrella term.

Itadakimasu!! | Part 3: Fly, Little BirdĀ  (Written Chapter)
word count: 1.2k
Tumblr media
Tendou never thought himself to be a selfless person. He didn't really consider himself a selfish person either, necessarily, but he promised himself a long time ago that he wasn't going to set aside his own dreams for the comfort of someone else. His ambition always came first, and the endgame had always been Paris. He supposed, in a way, that had never changed - so why was there a familiar pool of guilt settling at the pit of his stomach?Ā 
The corner of his lips tugged downward at the slight, involuntary tremor that rippled through his hands - the ivory envelope with gold trim, 'La Maison du Chocolat' Ā written in a delicate golden font across its center clutched in between them. You knew about Paris - about his dreams, his ambitions - and not once have you given him any reason to doubt that you would regard this news in any way other than with a painfully large grin and arms spread impossibly wide, pride radiating off you like a sunbeam. So why...guilty. Thoughts wandered to the pickle jar. The drunken nights on the balcony of your tiny apartment; stupid, cheesy French music playing on one of your phones as the two of you laughed and talked about what Paris would mean for the both of you. Tendou knew exactly what to say every time, but when the conversation trailed back to you, you would grin, sometimes laugh, but your answer was always the same - 'I'll figure it out when I get there. I don't really care as long as I'm with you'.
Ah. There it was.
Paris was his dream. Not yours.
'I'll follow you anywhere, Ten.ā€™
Even if it wasn't what you wanted.
He was neither a selfless nor selfish person, but he knew you, and you were as selfless as they came. You would give up everything youā€™ve worked so hard for to follow him if he asked, completely setting aside your own whims to entertain his. Tendou shoved the envelope into his bag and hurried up the stairs to your apartment, trying desperately to will away the unwanted feeling that gnawed at him as he flashed you his usual Cheshire grin.
Ā In 12 months, he would be leaving for Paris to begin a paid apprenticeship with one of the most famous Parisian Chocolate Boutiques, working directly under the famous Sculptor and Chocolatier Patrick Roger himself - and you would not be going with him.
There wasnā€™t any way to break that news to you now, not when you were still so unwilling to stand on your own. He knew he needed to nudge you out of the nest the two of you built, reminding you of your independence, and hopefully, the will to chase your own dreams. He grabbed the pickle jar from under the sink, took a little extra from his own savings, and began the search to find you a new nest, one with more room for you to finally learn to fly.Ā 
Tumblr media
ā€œIā€™m sorry, you what?ā€ Your body twisted toward him at the news, eyes bulging out of your skull.Ā 
ā€œI bought a new location. In Osaka! Trendy neighborhood, good lighting, pretty cheap actually-ā€
ā€œWhen?! How?! With what-ā€ your voice died in your throat as you picked yourself off the floor and scrambled to the kitchen. You ripped open the cabinet underneath the sink and fished around, a grunt of victory leaving you as you felt your fingers clasp around the familiar lid. Successfully retrieving the pickle jar from the depths of the cabinet, the faint glow of the kitchen light brought the full makeshift bank into view, and you couldnā€™t help but gawk when you saw its emptiness.Ā 
ā€œTendou, why...ā€ Your voice trailed off as your brain began to flood with worry. What made him decide to just buy a new location without talking to you first? Itā€™s not like you would have said no. You couldnā€™t help but feel a pang of betrayal at the notion that he didnā€™t value your opinion as a business partner. Feet pattered against the linoleum as he rushed to stand in front of you, and your lifted your eyes to lock onto his own. The usual mirth that accompanied his features was ever present, but you knew him well enough to see the tiny sheen of something else that rippled over his features. Guilt?
ā€œParadis, itā€™s nothing against you, I promise. I just...I wanted it to be a surprise,ā€ he explained, crouching down so he could maintain an even eye level with you.Ā ā€œI forgot youā€™re not a huge fan of them.ā€ Your lack of response was probably beginning to gnaw at him, you thought, but whenever you tried to come up with something to say, it fizzled before it could reach your tongue.
ā€œI saw your notebook, Y/n,ā€ he mumbled.Ā ā€œYou have so many plans for Paradis, and theyā€™re all amazing! This new place has all the room to make your ideas on the page come to life. You could have a dining area, expand the menu, try new crazy things - this location can be your passion project; your baby.ā€Ā Ā 
Spontaneity wasnā€™t a new trait for Tendou. There were days where he would come home, tell you to collect your things, and wisk you away on a road trip for two days with no destination in mind, no other notice except a quick text to the team to take care of the shop while you two were away. Generally, you didnā€™t mind his antics, but this seemed next level, and you couldnā€™t ignore the feeling that it came with ulterior motives.Ā 
Something else nagged at the back of your mind too - if you were going to Osaka, was Tendou coming with you? Was he staying here? What about the apartment? Thereā€™s no way he can keep it up himself. How did he get the money for a location in Osaka of all places-
Your brain shut down the moment Tendouā€™s finger poked in between your eyebrows.
ā€œParadis, youā€™re gonna get wrinkles. I already took care of everything, so ask me whatever you wanna know.ā€ You sat on his words for a moment, rifling through the growing number of questions to deem which one most important.
ā€œAre you coming with me?ā€ His silence was loud enough to answer for him, and you looked down. You havenā€™t done any of this on your own before. Youā€™ve always had someoneā€™s arm held out to you to hang onto whenever life tried to rear its ugly head and swallow you.Ā 
ā€œI wonā€™t be able to do it all myself, Ten.ā€ Tendou frowned.Ā ā€œYou donā€™t give yourself enough credit, Y/n. You can always call me if you end up stuck. Also,ā€ he pulled out his phone as if to confirm his next words.Ā ā€œKuguri has been wanting to move out of Tokyo for a fat minute now. He said heā€™s totally down to go with you.ā€
The news of Kuguri accompanying you lifted a huge amount of pressure off you. At least you werenā€™t going up there alone. Your thoughts drifted to the potential Osaka had just granted you; A new opportunity, a blank slate for your ideas to come to life. You could finally try things youā€™ve always wanted to with this new location. The worry that plagued you began to dissipate, excitement taking over as you brought your eyes to meet Tendouā€™s once more.
ā€œWhen are we supposed to leave?ā€ Tendou grins, and places his hand over the one you had resting on top of the pickle jar.
ā€œThree weeks.ā€

Fun facts -Ā 
I promise this is an Osamu x reader lmao just give it time
For Tendouā€™s apprenticeship, I combined two popular Parisian Chocolate companies: Patrick Roger, whoā€™s style just seems so Avant Garde and very Tendou energy, and decided to make him the head of the popular chocolate boutiqueĀ  La Maison du Chocolat, solely because I thought the name was very ~French~ and ~Fancy~ lol.
I know nothing of Chocolate or France tbh - I got my info from this Vogue Article that you can read here.

Peril (WOF)
I like both Nonbinary She/They Peril and Mtf She/Her Peril
They're both such good concepts
She's a lesbian, Harold
She only had a crush on Clay bc he was pretty much everything she was supposed to like in a guy
Gimme a moment while I force all my mental disorders onto this poor child
Autistic, Anxiety (Social anxiety, mainly, but she has most types), Adhd, PTSD
I'd like to reiterate yet again that She's a lesbian
Sunny and Glory were her gay awakening
Peril in Book 1: Damn, Sunny and Glory sure are pretty. Anyone would be lucky to date them. Clay would probably go for them over me. He would be stupid if he didn't. I myself would willingly date them over someone like me. They're just so pretty :(
Peril waking up in a cold sweat in the middle of arc 2: WAIT-
Rarepair alert but Peril/Sora
Peril meeting Sora: "Hmmm She's attractive. I would love to date her. Too bad I'm straight and in love with her brother lmao :P"
Peril, a mere month later, waiting for Ruby to leave Jade Mountain, pacing in her cave, running face first into a wall: WAIT-
I remember reading this one amazing story where Sora taught Peril to read/write and Peril found out she set off the bomb and comforted her/convinced her her run so that's canon now
Btw if anyone can remember what that story was called/what platform it was on and could tell me I'd appreciate it very much
I'd even be willing to draw a character of your's or make you an icon or something
I usually don't accept requests bc I get burnt out easy but this is a special case
She runs into Sora again sometime between the beginning of TOP and the end
I like to imagine she just goes wandering around
Anyway she confesses like a mere few minutes after running into her again bc Peril is just subtle like that
The actual confession takes 15 minutes and the entire time Sora is just sitting here like "šŸ‘šŸ‘„šŸ‘ sure"
Bam Peril/Sora
Peril plans to keep it a secret for a little while longer but she spends 3 seconds around Clay and pretty much blurts it out
Clay, who wasn't even aware that Peril was a lesbian, is just "šŸ‘šŸ‘„šŸ‘"
I wanna say Clay doesn't know what a lesbian is but in my canon Sunny is a lesbian so Starflight has already told him
Anyway he's super supportive
From that point Peril is sorta open about her sexuality?
Like, she gives Clay permission to tell the rest of the D.O.D bc she isn't about to risk being in front of them when they hear the news
(When Sunny starts actively seeking her out as a hang out buddy and Tsunami, Glory, and Starflight appear to tolerate her presence just a bit more afterwards she pretends she isn't confused by the change)
She's pink, white, and blue bc I said so
If you look at a certain angle in the right lighting her eyes, mouth, fire, and under her scales all look purple
But her fire is normally white and blue bc I said so
Also she pale as fuck bc in my canon their fire just sorta burns their colour away
You know how you leave something outside for too long and it gets sunbleached? Where it gets all washed out?
Like that but more extreme
By the age of 10-12 firescale dragons are just white with pale eyes
That's right not even the eyes are safe
Ram horns :P
I'm also fond of Peril/Sunny
Or maybe Peril/Sora/Sunny
But Peril/Sora is the main thing
On the topic of that bringing in my hc that if one sib in a sib group is fire resistant all of them are
She,,, She can change her scale colour
But only slightly and only if her emotions are strong enough
Bc I don't give a fuck about Darkstalker's scroll we were robbed of hybrid Peril
Unfortunately all of Peril's emotions are strong
Rainwing ruff along her head and neck
It's like a hood
It's mainly smoothed to her sides but when she's startled it flares out
RAINWING PUPILS
Y'all will know what those look like as soon as I get off my ass :P
She,,, She can mimic bird cries
Hates the summer
She has more than enough body heat already and the outside is just hot enough to add on and make her feel sick
She can somewhat control her heat but most of the time it's based on her emotions
It can go from standing-in-the-middle-of-a-burning-building-cant-see-your-nose-smoke-is-so-thick heat (Strong emotion) to Hey-thats-a-nice-cozy-campfire heat (Calm/"weak" emotion/Sleeping)
I'm just gonna make a different post with all my Peril hcs cuz there isnt enough room for all of them here

ā€¢ JENIFER ā€œJENā€ MARLOWE ā€¢
IG Info/bio: @/justjenw1n | 220k followers | Fashion | just a LUVer who owns a lovely blog that youā€™re more than welcome to check out here... astoldbyjenmarlowe.co.uk šŸŖžšŸ›šŸŖ„
22 (24) (25 in 2021) years of age
From London, England
Her family has French origins
Tends to visit once a year mainly with her family
For her 18th bday, her parents also sent her to Paris with her bf that sheā€™s been dating since she was 14
they broke up since he wanted to stay in Paris to pursue his dreams and she felt like she needed to be back home...which she felt Paris was not
Extremely close to her parents, some may say a little TOO close...
See, I feel like jen comes from a family that spoils her where her parents did everything and took care of everything for her. She had the privilege and didnā€™t have to work too hard to get things she wanted so that made her a little bit different than a few of her friends, hellā€”even her bf
Didnā€™t have to work until she reached her twenties
She also didnā€™t have too many friends because her parents felt like her cousins and/or her sibs were really only allowed to hold that title
However her parents had some sort of a soft spot for her when they allowed her to date her bf at 14 since he came from a nice background...
And to have at least 1-2 best friends...
I canā€™t decide if I see her having 3 other sibs with her being the second eldest, or her being the eldest with a younger sister? I can also see her being a only child too? Idk yā€™all can decide
Because her family is a tight knit one, she values everything they say and do...which is canon/evident
She got her thigh tattoo in Paris and even thought about asking her parents permission but her bf talked her out of it
she later showed them that night while he was in the shower. Her mother openly disapproved saying it was, ā€œunladylike or uncleanā€ while her father was more lenient towards it ļæ¼
Her mother even scheduled her for laser appointments but this was one of the things jen was sure of, she loved her tattoo and she didnā€™t want to erase it from her body which led to her mother not speaking to her for about a monthā€”even tho they live in the same household
I feel like she looks more like her dad with her momā€™s hair and smile
Got into fashion due to her maternal grandmother who seemed to live a extravagant life as a old time actress, she always had and owned the finest of things
Jen loved having sleepovers there, it felt like she had her own personal Liz Taylor inside of her nan...but better!
Definitely found inspiration through Liz Taylor, Kate Moss, Victoria Beckham, and Naomi Campbell
she had no clue what she wanted to do in life (she never had to think too hard about it until now, itā€™s true what they say about your twenties) and she made the choice not to continue thru with uni & Iā€™m not going to make her out to be the stereotypical ā€œdumb blondeā€ I think she did well in schoolā€”so she kinda just chilled after it was all over
Her first job at 20 was probably working in retail where she learned all about the bs you put up with but she loved clothes! That never changed
So she decided 6 months into her job that she was going to make a fashion blog
she made one separate from her tumblr but kept it under construction since she needed to brain storm what exactly this blog would entail
It didnā€™t take too long to her to figure it out by how she wanted the blog to look then discussing pieces from celebs/models then slowly discussing her own wardrobe + advice
She didnā€™t immediately gain success for it ā€”altho she did have a good 1k people follow her thru her tumblr where she also provided the link to her separate blog... but she worked/works hard at it, hoping one day itā€™ll get her somewhere and that maybe she can get paid for it too?
Retail fucking sucks and people are horrible twats so when she was approaching 21 she deff quit with her parents still hammering...more so her dad on what she needs to do with her life but she found happiness in her blog and no one was going to take that away from her ā€”not even her parents
ā€˜Whatā€™s the use of working if it doesnā€™t make you happy?ā€™ She thinks but again! she has the privilege of living under her parents roof and not having to pay bills so she didnā€™t have to worry too much rn she knows theyā€™d never kick her out right?
she has two bunnies named ā€œbugsyā€ and ā€œLolaā€ā€”u know the reference right?
I feel like she values the flinstones & jetsons because it was something her dad loved watching as a kid and still does , probably has the dvds showcased in her room that she watches when she feels sad
Seems like a smiley person but when sheā€™s sad? It kinda sucks to see cause she turns into a whole different person and she always seems happy with a smile so wide that turns her eyes squinty
If she disagrees with something, sheā€™s 100% giving her opinion whether you like it or not? Wrong is wrong. But when the shoe is on the other foot? She hates being wrong LOL or doesnā€™t view herself being wrong. Doesnā€™t take accountability well...at all!
Sheā€™s also showed her ass by being a gossiper and fake as hell with Allegra about mc with the whole, ā€œletā€™s pretend like weā€™re there for herā€ if youā€™re not fucking with somebody just say that or SHOW it sis cause that snakey shit will come back to bite you in the ass (I forgot about this lol as Iā€™m replaying)
sheā€™s all ā€œmega resting bitch faceā€ until she breaks out into a large smile
Libra sun? + Virgo moon? + Gemini rising?
I feel like she only knows what she wants when it comes to relationships but not with the rest of life?
Lol she was very determined with levi in the beginning, explored shit with jake, (I canā€™t remember if that was after you/mc showed a interest in him or not in that route? Iā€™m doing a talia/Rohan route rn But thatā€™s kinda foul if sheā€™s smiling in ur face and then boom goes and does what she wants but hey thatā€™s the game right? Fck that tho) and then stood by Tim after only some time?
She wasnā€™t feeling him in the beginning either cause he thought she was too posh for him and snakey which heā€™s right to some degree but sheā€™s also right if she finds him too immature for her liking
To you jim? Ten? Stansā€” Idk what their ship name is but it probably wouldnā€™t have worked out in the long run either because I donā€™t see both of them wanting to change themselves completely to satisfy the other. (Tim tried) Sure if youā€™re showing unhealthy behaviors and are open to diminishing that for yourself then trying to work on your relationship then thatā€™s great! But they already started from the jump not liking each otherā€™s personalities/characteristics....
And hey! Ofc I know people grow to like things they might have disliked about you in the beginning but you can also find yourself not fully accepting it in a relationship and that doesnā€™t mean you didnā€™t try
+ itā€™s been hinted at that theyā€™re not endgame & if you love yourself some Tim not platonically then this works in ur favor. if not? Then you can keep them endgame by all means! For me? That endgame shit is a no! For those that donā€™t gaf about either of them thatā€™s fine too lmao
YES I feel like they were both hurt over the breakup and it probably happened right around the holidays or either a couple of months after Christmas/New Years 2019
Jen is probably the type to keep checking up on her ex, not necessarily talking to them but finding out who theyā€™re with now
and if itā€™s Tim with mc sheā€™s definitely gossiping about the shit with erikah and Allegra or making shady tweets or posts on IG for sure
ā€œ5 outfits to wear when you run into your exā€ type posts on her blog looool
She hopes if she runs into Tim, sheā€™s looking her best and she would 80% go up to him & mc/his new girl if not mc and be all huggy with him and holding conversation before she even thinks to acknowledge mc/new girl and when she does itā€™s a shady convo with fake smiles
Absolutely loves watching housewives so she was prepared for that moment if it ever does come
Her parents openly didnā€™t like Tim which made him feel like shit since it seemed like jen never defended him in front of them but again, she values her parents opinion and always wants their stamp of approval thatā€™s just the way the girl is/ was brought up
She owes them everything but deep down knows that in her relationship with Tim she could have been a little more understanding of his needs like he was with her love for her parents...but sheā€™ll never admit that
Doesnā€™t get over breakups as easily as it may seem like her exes do in her opinion.
It sure didnā€™t take long with Tim to date mc/new girl months after they broke up! Which was like a slap in the face
The ex bf she spent time w in Paris who looks like Matthew Noszka is now engaged, lives in AMERICAā€”& of all places??? California to be exact, and just released his debut album!! She knows which songs are probably about her, itā€™s a nice album she screamed about it for hours into her pillow and cried for what felt like weeks
Lost her voice over that breakdown too
Her mother even went as far as sending a nasty letter to this ex bfā€™s new address...since ya know? jenā€™s dad is a private investigator & all!!! but dad had no knowledge of this being done
Sheā€™s still fond of Levi and jake but not like in love with them? Like she thought/felt she was with Tim but she still considers them her mates
Maybe in 2021 sheā€™ll be open to dating again and hopes erikah and Allegra will be her wingwomen when the time comes BUT sheā€™s focusing on her blog rn and itā€™s the best itā€™s ever been!
She had the show to thank for that now that she has a manager and is getting paid for running her blog now! Thatā€™s right this girl is officially employed!
ā€œAt least one good thing came from the show ;) šŸ§½šŸ„šŸ„‚ā€ type of tweets
Thereā€™s never not a moment where sheā€™s not connecting her posts whether thru ig or Twitter to her blog: astoldbyjenmarlowe.co.uk!!!
Both erikah and Allegra talk a little shit about that together...WHEN they DO talk, the pair only really socialize when jen initiates it but if one pisses the other off?? theyā€™re going to gossip about it with the other forsure
She doesnā€™t look that tall to me? Taller than erikah? 5ā€™2-5ā€™5 the 5 is pushing it for me? Maybe? lol Iā€™m still deciding between her and Allegra far as height and Iā€™m too lazy to go back and see what I put for her
Hates straightening her hair, that pin straight look is not cute to her. She loves having waves and body to her hair
Get her eyebrows micro bladed since she doesnā€™t have much hair up there to begin with
Adores French cuisine, always has since she was a little girl. Bisque used to be her fav back then and all that she would eat
Loves spring season especially pastel colors when it comes to her wardrobe
The type to say one thing and do the complete opposite
I feel like she probably has a little bit of lisp and itā€™s not really noticeable until she says some words, sheā€™s insecure about it and thought it had something to do with the structure of her teeth and begged her parents to get them fixed but it literally had nothing to do with them
Yet she still got colorful braces in middle school even tho her teeth were pretty straight. She didnā€™t have to wear them for a whole year, thank goodness
Went to speech therapy to help
Has stacks of fashion magazines even from the early 90s all over her room: her night stand, her vanity, her closet, underneath her bed etc...
Adores the Hadid sisters, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, & Georgia May Jagger
Makes the best white chocolate chip (thatā€™s right, white not just regular chocolate) banana bread but cooking/baking? Isnā€™t really her thing
Early riser
Loves yellow: yellow phone case, yellow laptop, yellow room, yellow tulips, yellow shades, etc...
Getting Prada shades was probably one of the best things that happened to her, s/o to her nan for granting her this wish
Words of affirmation is her love lanaguage, this girl is a talker and a bit of a thinker too I mean duh? She runs a blog
Likes bright colors on her toes but nude and clear polish on her hands?
Loves a good mascara but she also loves magnetic lashes but is trying her best to grow her lashes out rn! Thanks to erikah for sending her some good olā€™ coconut oil!
Smokey eyes? Set her up
Gets a belly ring, and two more tatts one in between her boobs and the last on her ankle & that one she shed a tear over!
Maybe sheā€™ll start changing her physical attributes more so than the way she carries her life at first? (Or ever) Sheā€™ll cut her hair below her collarbone to the top of her chest, and maybe sheā€™ll try a light light LIGHT brunette (she loves being a natural blonde) with blonde highlights? Who knows
loves espadrilles and wedge sandals
Loves going wine tasting and visiting vineyards, if sheā€™s vacationing? You can bet ur ass sheā€™s looking for a vineyard to visit
Deff a lightweight
Hereā€™s her unpopular opinions on s2: Thought Felix was a wannabe Tim and hates the fact that he follows her, thought graham was unattractive and said so to Allegra who snickered, thought marisolā€™s clothing choices were rather boring,
didnā€™t feel 100% bad for Hannah but disagrees with the way Gary and noah spoke about her + the way Gary tried to slide back over to Hannah on her comeback episode
but doesnā€™t feel like Lottie is wrong for choosing Gary after Hannah left
isnā€™t a fan of priya but is glad sheā€™s doing fashion since jen strongly believes in if something isnā€™t making u happy then u need to let it go
Thinks Hope should have won and cannot tolerate Bobby. Feels heā€™s WORSE than Felix,
would be open to dating Ibrahim or Carl from that szn
has spoken to Harry from s3 due to his drunkenness and actually made a friend out of him? But low key wants to get to know seb? Take that info as u will šŸ‘€
Her anthem: Michelle ā€” SUNRISE

About me.šŸ—£
šŸ—£Well, first of all..I was born on 30th of October. Itā€™s a pretty boring and uneventful day lmao. Iā€™m not going to say the exact birthdate, however itā€™s in the 2000ā€²s.šŸ¤øšŸ½ā€ā™€ļø
šŸ—£My pseudonymā€™s Silsha, and my real name also starts with aĀ ā€œSā€, Iā€™m just keeping it secretĀ ā€˜cause I want to keep that mYsTerIoUs vibe going on, is it working?šŸ„ŗ
šŸ—£Iā€™m from the Philippines, born and raised. I am also full Filipino (or at least I think so? My mom said we have a lil bit of French blood in there, so..šŸ„ouiĀ šŸ„ ).. I was actually supposed to be raised in the US, but my momā€™s visa got declined. She went to US last year though! (not me getting jealous but ok.)
šŸ—£Iā€™m an ambivert. There are times where Iā€™m shy as fuck, and times where all the nastiest in this worldā€™s dictionary comes outta this big ass mouth. There are times where I grab any opportunity to keep away from other people and just stay in my room with my trusty book and earphones, while there are times that I go out with my friends and go to the mall or chill in their houses. (ofc, before COVID happened.)šŸ˜·
šŸ—£Iā€™ve played Choices since early 2018, and boy, if my past self would look at how addicted I am to it now, past self would run screeching to the ends of the Earth.Ā  šŸƒšŸ½ā€ā™€ļø ļæ½ļæ½
šŸ—£My favorite books from Choices are Open Heart (this is the one fucking reason why iā€™m stuck going crazy over one blue-eyed spoiled child diagnostician called Ethan Jonah freaking Ramsey), The Heist Monaco, A Courtesan of Rome (the main reason why Iā€™m OBSESSED with ancient Roman history, and why I want to go there on my birthday.), Platinum, A Royal Masquerade, Perfect Match (though I wasnā€™t able to finish it..) Blades of Light and Shadow (my bb Tyril šŸ˜æ) Distant Shores (FUCK YOU PB, FUCK YOU.) Queen B,(yeah, I know it was such a mess, but I kinda liked Ian ;-;) and last but certainly not the least is....Most Wanted!
šŸ—£The other games that Iā€™ve played and stayed for a while was Romance Club (please, please, please support and check this app out! Itā€™s really worth it and wonā€™t disappoint you!) and Chapters (this was the game that Iā€™ve also been obsessed about too! Aside from Choices, when I took a little time off of Choices and went inactive with this account, this was my only safe haven then, with all of those schoolworks pouring in, it was really hard to take a breather.)
šŸ—£What does Choices mean to me? It means the world to me, the absolute world. Hell, because of it, I got to meet so many nice and appreciative people here on this platform itself.(Thanks, Tumblr. Iā€™ll make sure to give you a five star rating if I donā€™t forget it againšŸ˜­) I got included in a community that I felt really comfortable to be in, and most importantly, it made me happy. I consider it as my safe haven, from being depressed and anxious. Iā€™ve never really acknowledged myself as one, but itā€™s noticeable, even to myself. I just donā€™t show it. Our education system here sucks, just..no words.
šŸ—£My favorite singers are (internationally): Sabrina Carpenter, Camila Cabello, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Adele (queen, please come backšŸ•Š),The Weeknd, and many more that I canā€™t remember.Ā 
šŸ—£My favorite songs now are: (pls try to listen to them if you have the chance!) Skin by Sabrina Carpenter, Earned it by The Weeknd(yeah no actually, every song of his is my favorite, sorry not sorry.), Tango by Abir, This City by Sam Fischer, Safety net by Ariana Grande (all of her songs in her newest album, no actually all ofĀ ā€˜em!), Loves Control by Camila Cabello (another artist whoā€™s powerful enough to make me love all her songs.) and so many more LMAO iā€™m just lazy to type all of it, itā€™ll go on for decades.
šŸ—£I almost forgot- Iā€™m a she. It may come of as a shock to others, some not, but yes. LMAO. I think itā€™s pretty obvious from how I talk online.
šŸ—£Iā€™m a pretty chill not chillĀ student. (not me lying to myself to make me feel better.) But really, I donā€™t put that much effort when it comes to education, and I didnā€™t even review when it comes to quizzes and exams back from 1st-6th grade. What changed? Well, the fact that became older and became more self-conscious about it (my grades). But, I still donā€™t give it my all partly because of my belief that we should enjoy our youth. Studying too hard may hinder that. And so, I did just that. Iā€™m not particularly a naturally intelligent student. Iā€™m just observant and can be pretty hardworking if necessary (groupings for school projects and stuff.) Iā€™m not the type who goes and becomes a leader in one group cause I canā€™t handle the pressure and I donā€™t give enough authority vibes to be listened to (I can though, if yā€™all push my buttons too far.), however I act as an assistant leader, who also helps in anyway I can and handles all the research (ā€™cause I love learning new things online, and I love to research.) And so, I kinda became a With Honors type of student. (sHocKer.) And honestly? I donā€™t regret putting a bit of effort in school, because I get to see how proud my parents are for me.
And if youā€™ve made it this far...youā€™re a complete sTalKerR!! Nah, just kidding youā€™re cool. LMAOO. Thank you for reading this short-filled information about me, or also known as @choicesreal. Itā€™s been really fun to type this out, because I might come off as kind of a closed book around others in the community. This is a text to let you learn a few bits and tiny details about me! Part 2? Maybe. It really depends KDJHAKDJH. And now it is time for me to end this post as my eyes are stinging.
With that, Paalam muna. (From my native language, itā€™s translated asĀ ā€œGoodbye, for nowā€ in English.)
