i rewatched the first bionicle move yesterday, for the first time in probably a couple of decades lmao

a lot more racist than my tiny kid self noticed. a lot of the spirituality bullshit you can kind of defend in that its something that's treated as true, or that the characters you're supposed to agree with believe in it?

however there was some shit like Lewa's speech patterns that are just indefensible. like that has only one relationship with reality and it's not a relationship that is kind to native and indigenous peoples.

also a lot of weird animation stuff that again, i just didn't notice as a child?

like, for example there were a lot of sequences that involved a singular motion, with a cut in the middle where the objects are different or in different places after it cuts to that second angle?

(and To Be Fair you could argue that they intentioned it to be a kind of mythic register that isn't really constrained by logic?)

but like as a kid you just watch those little disjointed bits and go "hhmmm, does that make sense?" but then you just kinda internalise it as something that somehow does somehow make sense, or else internalise it as a stylistic choice you don't understand,

instead of viewing it like, the result of a low animation resources and/or shoddy storyboarding.

Gali's head poking out of a waterfall at a funny angle is one of the best examples of this.

Gali was pretty cool in general tbh. Kopaka was clearly the writers' favourite but Gali has so many cool moments in this movie. "The Toa of water aproaches! The Toa of water-" "Is here!" is an underappreciated brainworm.

I forgot how good the Makuta's "Takuuuuuaaaaaaa" was as well. Definitely a formative memory for me.

I found it weird on rewatch how the Takua/Jaller break-up has like, zero consequences?

Like Teridax pushes Takua to leave Jaller, and then they're apart for a couple of scenes, and then the just get back together?

The Tahu poison arc was similar- he gets poisoned and becomes a allegory for dis-unity, and then they become united again when he gets healed but like, said poison and dis-unity doesn't ever actually matter?

(Onua having his strength sapped is another, lesser version of this - he kind of just, gets back up and keeps fighting lmao?)

There's another version of this story, where Takua and Jaller don't reunite until the final Toa-Rahkshi confrontation at the temple, and because Takua gets there late, he ends up blaming himself for Jaller's death?

Similarly, Tahu could have stayed down until that fight as well- they could have healed him and then just gone "we don't know if he'll wake up" until he comes back to save the day at the last moment and reconcile with Gali then.

(oh and throughout the whole movie there's the super inspirational heroic theme is playing at almost every moment)

at the same time however, I remember really liking the healing Tahu plot beat when i watched this as a child?

I liked that there were moments of lower tension (even if I obviously wouldnt have used that term), and that the characters were smart and competent enough to solve this problem before the finale.

On rewatch I also realised that there is like, actual foreshadowing of Takua being the seventh toa/a light matoran as well? Like as a kid I just didn't clock that the Rahkshi focusing on him in the earth village fight was evidence of him being light or whatever lol

on the subject of Takuanuva the transformation is like, unquestionably a trans allegory on rewatch lol.

like this freak who doesn't fit in and then discovers why he doesn't fit in and transforms and gets energy blasts

its definitely not intentional because he gets like a minimalistic cleft-chin like Jaller's, but at the same I think his voice literally gets higher???

and then at the end of the movie they all stand on different spots on the bionicle symbol with Hali in the "unity" spot (feminine-something that Gali has also been focused on the whole movie), Jaller stands on the "duty" spot (with his duty being captain of guard- masculine) and with Takuanuva standing in the middle, confirming him as canonically non-binary :)

Teridax's goals seemed very different compared to what he is then "revealed" to canonically care about, as well?

Like in this the movie it really seems like he genuinely believes staying asleep is the best for matanui?

and then when him and Takua fuse it feels like, it's still the same care/compassion for his brother, but with Takua's clarity to know exactly what that means?

which is extremely different from subsequent plots LOL

although having a straightforward upbeat heroic story which then veers hard into high-concept body horror right at the very end is like, extremely Bionicle lmao. Extremely bionicle sequence of story.

gonna watch the second movie now 👍

#bionicle #i hit post too early and had to edit this fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkk

heyy can you do romantic cc!dsmp x figure skater!reader?

plsss i love ice skating!! im gonna interpret this as like, reader loves skating and competes locally so it’s not a famous!reader thing and more about the skating

cws: gn!reader, fluff

Dream

brags about you sooo much

like everyone he knows knows everything about your skating and has seen endless pictures and videos that he takes when he comes to watch you

embarrassing but he’s so proud of you, like he stans you so hard it’s kinda funny

always brings a huge bunch of roses for you when you’re competing so he can present them to you dramatically if you win or make you feel better if you don’t

and ofc he insists on getting you the best skates money can buy and paying your coaching fees so you can get the best person going

he also tries to learn more about it, watching loads of youtube videos and listening in on your talks with your coach so he can understand your passion better and offer advice on your form and stuff during your casual practices

if you’re into skating as a fan too he gets you tickets to watch big skating tournaments / lots of signed memorabilia etc

basically he’ll do anything to support and show interest in your hobby, well almost anything

he refuses to actually skate with you bc he knows how bad you’ll show him up and he’s not about it lol

makes jokes about not wanting to steal your thunder bc obviously he’d be sooo good and that’s why he won’t skate with you

he might secretly get some lessons if you’ve been together a while though, so he can surprise you one day...

Sapnap

can’t understand how elegant you look on the ice, you make it look effortless

like he’s a texas boy so i reckon he’s probably never ice-skated in his life, except the one time you dragged him onto the rink with you

he lasted less than three minutes before calling it and has flat out refused to ever go on again

he DOES love taking you to the skate park tho, and you get into inline skating (bc they’re kinda similar at the end of the day) so you can skate together “on solid ground” as sap puts it

also he can’t get over what you wear for competitions

like he feels kinda conflicted tbh bc obviously you look sexy asl in those skin tight outfits but they’re also just a tiny bit goofy

they remind him just slightly too much of pro-wrestling ??? idk

he’s amazed by you though and his lockscreen is a selfie he took during a competition with him going crazy in the foreground and you doing some insane spin jump in the background

the photo’s kinda blurry and you didn’t actually land that jump but he does not care

you two have a tradition of getting drive through take out on the way back from competitions or difficult practices bc it helps you decompress, and you shit talk your competitors together in the privacy of his car

he also heckles the judges that give you bad scores like he’s at a football game and you’ve had to tell him to stop so he doesn’t get banned

George

he just genuinely really enjoys watching you skate

he’ll sit on his own in the stands for hours just watching you practice, or even just scrolling on his phone, but he likes to be there with you anyway

sometimes he’ll facetime karl or somone and show them what you’re doing and he always gets so smiley

he has a lot of fun coming to watch you compete too and he makes a whole thing of it like he’s going to watch a big sports league final or the olympics or something and you’re his favourite team

like holding his breath when you do difficult jumps and spins he knows you struggle with and jumping up and cheering when you land them

of all of them he’s definitely done the most skating, with you and just in general

he’s still not very good but he can mostly stay on his feet and just laughs when he falls over bc fun > ego every time with georgie

loves just holding your hand while he stumbles around the rink with you or holding your hand over your head while you do a lil spin

he thinks you always look the most beautiful while skating: all giddy and smiley from doing your favourite thing and cheeks flushed from the cold and the exercise

Karl

another one who goes way overboard with the cheering just to be a dork and embarrass you

but also bc he is so genuinely proud of you and how hard you work to be good

he can’t make a lot of your competitions or any practice really bc he’s so busy with his work, but when he can be there he makes up for it with a bunch of flowers and gifts, and so much praise and cuddling

celebrates your wins and feels your losses so sincerely bc your success is his success and your sadness is his sadness

he undoes your laces and takes off your skates for you every time he’s there to do it

and after the stream where he drew on those sneakers you asked him to decorate your practice skates with whatever he liked so he could always be there with you in a way

he got so in his head about doing something incredible and you had to tell him you just wanted cute lil doodles and they’d be perfect bc he drew them

they came out like a graffitied primary school desk but with loads of different colours and little hearts and stick figures of the two of you smooching plus some affirmations about how amazing you are

he was so nervous to show you but you ADORE them and would wear them for competitions if you could

I come bringing ideas and headcanons.

OK, so we all already know what The Three oldest archons abilities. So I’ve come up with my own ideas we could use for the younger archons! (And yes I’m grouping Ei, Venti and Zhongli as the older siblings since Ei Is 1000 years old Venti is 2,500 and Zhongli is 5,000-6,000 and the other archons are still in the hundreds I think)

Again these aren’t canon just stuff you can use for future Requests for Twisted wonderland x Teyvat God! Reader

For Dendro archon!Reader

Definitely a Bow User. And Is a Healer. But the their Ult can cause damage

I have a theory That during the Archon War The dendro Archin created the Regisvines to fight for them, and only two were left. I also Headcanon The dendro archon can bring plants to life and overwrite what each plant can do. (Maybe even bring mushrooms to life 👀).

Maybe They can create a giant plant from the ground that spreads Healing energies and since this is a god where talking about can Cure Curses (Ahem Vils Curses Ahem) and major Diseases and what not.

For Their Ult maybe a giant plant monster (kinda like how Gouba and Oz exists ) that will attack for them (could make for fun combos with different elements like if the dendro archon was wet Hydro Plant monster)

For Hydro archon!reader

Polearm or sword (theirs way too many Hydro Catalyst) Healer and Dps, Why? Cause I say so.

You’ve mentioned how Hydro archon summons a giant wave? I’ll do you one better and their E skill summons a giant sea creature of your choosing to soak the fighters (A cool visual is their polearm turning into a big dream catcher then going swoosh and Baam Maybe like A giant Water Koi fish finna drown your ass *ahem ace ahem*)

Now mihoyo likes to reference Their character form honkai impact into genshin impact (and since they took a characters look from Honkai and another characters abilities with the whole Dual ego thing for Raiden shogun and Ei) I’m gonna base this Ultimate Skill From a character from Honkai (for research search up Herrsercher of Sentience)

Since the Hydro archons whole thing is about Justice. Now here me out here. WATER WHIP. Just a giant whip of water that can go on for miles (maybe it’s salty maybe it’s like fresh water depends on our readers mood lolol). Like, It’s whip of water strong enough to cut diamond or whatever it would be very cool (Kalim would wanna see if he could do something like that with his UM Que jamil trying to stop him)

Maybe their hair turns into water too.

Pyro archon! Reader

Claymore. A Big strong war god needs a big strong weapon. Dps and Defense.

Now It’s not just one claymore, It’s DUAL-CLAYMORE, why? Cause it’s a war god that’s why!

I like to think the shield is like Xinyans and XiangLings combined and it’s constantly sending off tiny Fire Discs. Or just symbols shooting fire like what the Pyro Abyss mages can do

For Ultimate I like to think it’s like Childes Daggers but Bigger and on fire just a huge sword made of fire.

The pyro archon doesn’t think just BURNS. and STABE

Cryo archon! Reader

I can’t really come up with much for Cryo archon. But maybe a Catalyst that can summon a giant blizzard that drops down giant ice swords (kinda like Ganyus)

Definitely a sub DPS.

Maybe a healer too since The Tsaritsa is The archon of love?

What do you think about these abilities? Since you mentioned that the students and staff would assume their just strong mages I tried to be very creative with these abilities.

Also how I think the lore could go is maybe somewhere after leonas overblot and before azuls, Crowly has found a way to send Yuu home reluctantly. Yuu, grim and the aduece duo, and maybe some of heartslaybul or savana claw whoever you want come with them to the office to send them home. But Yuu is contemplating whether or not they WANT to go home now. But something goes wrong, maybe grim messes up the spell for the portal to work becuase (although he doesn’t want to admit it ) doesn’t want Yuu leaving, and their greeted with a surprise guest. Now this gives Yuu time to decide if they genuinely wanna go home and when teh archon finally has the materials they need to create a portal Yuu will tell them to leave the portal open (maybe put it into a tiny pocket mirror like the how we have the teapot) because they wanna stay for a little while or just until grim graduates (Que a happy fire cat ) and the archon whose grown attached to some people here was like ok “let our friends visit whenever they want, only if their headmaster allows it”

Now onto the headcanons

Anemo Archon! Reader and Mondstadt! Yuu

Everyone expected a lot of things not a person with Green eyes and (H/C) hair with green highlights. And an odd thing about them was the glowing stone on their person, Yuu didn’t have that?

Everyone’s freaking out because they’ve accidentaly taken another person from Yuus world.

And since Venti Is a well known famous bard In teyvat let’s say or Dear (y/N) is also a known bard and is not at all freaking out about what’s going on in fact let’s say our dear reader recognizes Yuu! And so now (Y/N) is now a new student (and a new headache for Crowley) in the ramshackle dorm! Yup! Just an ordinary human bard, Ehe~.

I’ll leave the rest of this up to you, Where Yuu has to explain what the world of teyvat is like (and why Yuu doesn’t have a phone (and a vision) because Twisted wonderland is far more advance in Technology and teyvat has JUST invented the Camera)

Also I head canon that people with Visions can summon their weapons and object with their visions, ok? Ok. To make things make more sense when reader pulls out a lyre from floating glitter.

Geo archon!reader and Liyue! Yuu

Same things happend here, but hey! We’ve summoned a Funeral Consultant! A very (ahemATTRACTIVEahem) Wise funeral consultant at best!

Our dear Friend (y/n) is very calm about the situation as well. After all everyone and liyue knows their god was killed and The Adepti are watching over them

So Our dear reader is seeing this as a free vacation 😊

Electro Archon!Reader and Inazuma!yuu

Since the god of Inazuma isn’t “Dead” or hasn’t left and the people know what their beloved archon looks like, Yuu will definitely Be Freaking the fuck out

“YOU DIDNT BRING ME HOME YOU JUST SUMMONED MY PEOPLES FUCKING GOD OH SHIT”

insert the meme of the womens face that gets zoomed in on the second panel “the. WHAT.” 😃

And y’know how Eis “Hello” voice line where she makes the traveler her guard she says the same thing to Yuu except “I recognize you are one of my people as your archon I shall be your guard and keep you safe from any danger in this Foreign world” and let’s say The puppet will not be used and Reader will be in control becuase they don’t have to worry about erosion right now so the puppet will be resting while (Y/N) is in control protecting their Precious Inazuma citizen is ok.

Well until They can get the materials they need to open a portal. I’ll let you figure out the rest, but congrats ramshackle you now have a god in your abode 😃✨

-Plot Anon 💗

PLOT ANON-SAMAAAAAAAAAA ILY!!!!!!!!! Thank you for your hard work sob

Anyways, for skills of the archons-

Dendro Archon

I think they'd use a sword or a catalyst tbh, if the skills you listed, it makes a little more sense to have them be more of a catalyst

For their elemental skill, I think they'd summon/throw something similar to Klee's and Aloy's elemental skill except they heal if someone in your party is nearby, their healing could scale by their EM or ER.

For their burst, I like your head canon for the Dendro Archon, so I might go off from that and your idea for their burst, just more tweaking. The dendro archon would be able to summon a large plant that heals AND deals Dendro damage by sapping mobs hp. The amount of life sapping it does and the healing would scale off their original HP (artifacts that give hp won't be of use)

Hydro Archon

I agree with hydro polearm or sword. Too many catalysts

Mmm... To be honest, I think you should have the burst be her skill... The whip idea is intriguing, but I think it would work more for a skill which can allow them to use it several times before waiting for the CD to go down. I think the whip skill would work better with Crit as well.

AND AS FOR THE MENTIONS OF WAVE AND A SEA CREATURE, I'LL DO YOU ONE BETTER BUT FOR THEIR BURST!!!! They summon a large tsunami which takes form of a monster/animal and lunges at the mobs (similar to Zhongli tossing down a dumbbell), however the amount of damage the burst can do is depending on if they are afflicted by the wet status the mobs are afflicted by. If already afflicted with hydro, the mobs would receive double damage while those with other elements afflicted on them would receive the element combination DMG and normal DMG while those that aren't affected by an element, they would receive normal damage. The amount of damage the burst does is scaled by EM.

Pyro Archon

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA CLAYMORE

Hmmm.... I think the skill would be they set an AoE with magma, mobs will receive damage from it and will continue to receive damage if they stay on it, but those who are in party, they will receive an ATK boost that scales from HP.

For the burst, I think I'll use a character from Honkai Impact with their special move which is Murata Himeko in Vermilion Knight: Eclipse battlesuit. Pyro Archon uses their claymore and another claymore but made of pyro and is far more larger and their cut scene has the Archon raise the pyro claymore above their head and slam it down to send pyro erupting from the ground (similar to the pyro axe wielding hilichurls)

Cryo Archon

I agree with catalyst

Mmmmmm.... I'd say her skill would beeeeee... Trapping several mobs or so in ice. They can either do 2-4 ice traps depending if you got their c1. (The ice traps are similar to Mirror Maidens traps BTW but it deals or affects the mobs with cryo)

For burst, I like the idea of summoning a blizzard/swords, but it's similar to Ganyu's. SO I'LL DO YOU ONE BETTER!!!! Cryo Archon will summon a blizzard which freezes mobs without having to use hydro, the freeze status lasts for a total of 15 seconds or higher if you got their c3

Hmmm... I like the idea, but imma tweak it a bit. The archon was in fact summoned through that portal because Grim decided to mess it up just for Yuu to stay a little longer, and so the Archon now resides in Twisted Wonderland as well in order to aide them until they can return back to their world. That way it makes more sense and makes it more fun.

Anemo archon

Yuu would be a bit jealous about them because they got a vision.

Crowley needs to hide his money

Sam has been strictly told to not give them wine that Sam stores in his shop...

Vargus is conflicted about them because they legit float without magic

Trein recurved a major headache

Divus is praying to whatever god existing to take them back

Ehe

EHE TE NANDAYO!?

Geo Archon

Yuu feels awkward meeting the consultant of the funeral parlor having to meet the Director...

Crowley is praying for dear god for them to go away.

"STOP TAKING MY MONEY YOU GORGEOUS FIEND" - Crowley

Train + Crewel + You = Besties

Sam was literally threatened to not joke around with you with business.

You legit did not fuck around with people when in contracts.

"Osmanthus wi-"

"SHUT THE HELL UP" - everyone

Electro Archon

Yuu is literally terrified in "your" presence.

Shogun malfunctioned due to being in an entirely new world so you had to disable Shogun's rules and create new ones regarding this world.

Yuu is still unaware of Shogun being a puppet

Crowley is no longer safe.

The staff (specifically Crewel) is supporting Shogun/You to beat Crowley's ass into shape.

Only the Diasomnia dorm knows your predicament with you and your puppet(s).

You are the definition of Queen/King/Royalty of the school. If you search up NRC, your picture literally plastered on it as the definition.

do i still get a pass if i ask for non luna content 👁👄👁 cause i wanna know how you think the brothers would show affection 🥴 like behind closed doors or in public or even just holding hands at dinner HEHEHEHEHE

alright fine you win bestie -_- using gn!reader / MC Prompt: how the brothers show their affection romantically, including the dateables + Luke (with platonic affection)

Lucifer:

I feel like he has an internal conflict with himself when it comes to wanting to show affection towards you. bcuz he wants to show you off and brag a lot but he also wants your affection to be private, just something shared between the two of you

leans more towards the latter though

Luci just likes to hold you in his arms when the two of you are alone. it’s a nice reminder that you really are there with him and you appreciate his presence, which I feel like he secretly values a lot (little unsaid things)

when he’s not cleaning up after the chaos of The Devildom then he’s most likely buried in paperwork unfortunately. which means if you can’t get him away from that desk then a lot of time is spent keeping him company in his office

9/10 times he has you sitting in his lap while he rests his head on your chest or your shoulder/back

doesn’t have to lead into anything spicy, he honestly just finds it comforting to feel your warmth next to him. good luck getting him to admit that verbally for a long time though

he’s surprisingly clingy when he wants to be

and when he’s drunk he’s much more honest, he gets even clingier and keeps telling you how much he loves that youre with him and he just wants to touch you

(when he’s not buzzed tho) more subtle ways are simply checking to see how youre doing, whether he asks in person or messages you throughout the day. he’ll call if you take way too long to respond though

“MC? Did I interrupt your nap? My apologies, sorry. I made a reservation for Ristorante Six. Please let me know if you’re up for it tonight, I really want to see you later.”

would not hold your hand during dinnertime unfortunately. It's more efficient if the two of you eat your meal normally and then hold hands afterwards. but that doesn't mean that MC hasn't tried to play footsie with him if he's across the table.

Mammon:

Mammon loves touching you if he absolutely can.

He’d act all indifferent in the beginning but the flush on his face and the way his voice gets all soft and subdued always betrays him

Mammon always wants you as close as possible for as long when youre in public (as long as you’re also comfortable with it)

if not he makes tiny excuses to hold your hand but otherwise he behaves until the two of you are alone

In a crowd together? “Gimme your hand MC. Y’know, um... just so we don’t get separated or whatever.” His cheeks are flushed.

he’s in one of those ADHD moods where his mind can’t help but wander and he sees your hand? He’ll get curious. Will unintentionally want to reach out and grab it to compare the size of both your palms

If he thinks you're feeling nervous or anxious about something, he’ll give your hand a little squeeze of support. does his absolute best to cheer you up or take your mind off of things

If you asked him to give you a piggyback ride or hold you bridal style (even jokingly) he would! You're his human after all!

his brothers might tease him here and there abt it, but all he'd do in retaliation is tell them to Shaddup! and hold you closer. Gets a little childish about it and sticks his tongue out at them

Honestly his love language is simp tbh. If youre ever mad at him for some reason he’s gonna hold his breath and try to die or something dramatic. Please don’t make him cry

Mammon is the type of sap to hold your hand under the table bcuz its feels so intimate yet simple, and gets his heart racing.

Literally forget the food, or whatever meeting youre in, he’s just sneaking glances at you know bcuz wow youre somethin else.

If you do this at an event with him he'd be the type to sit there and stay with you until you feel like getting up to dance or go somewhere else.

Leviathan:

i cant see Levi as a PDA person in general really since he gets so flustered so easily

of course this lessens a bit the more he becomes used to being around you, but he was such a mess the first time you guys were even the slightest bit affectionate towards each other

He does have a few rare moments where he gets a sudden boost of confidence tho.

like he’ll take your hand in his and then put both your hands in his pockets. To stay warm maybe, to hold your hand tightly maybe. Either way it’s both public and private enough to make his ears redden

It literally took him forever to hold your hand and even longer to kiss you. Unless youre very forthright with your affections, he moves kind of slow lol

He's definitely the most comfortable when it's just the two of you in his room though

He nearly has a heart attack the first time the two of you cuddle really close together

Likes having you hold him while he games, or letting him hold you. He gets very focused on the game so the warmth of your body is more of a comfort

He’s the type to see sharing his interests with you as a form of bonding, especially if he thinks it’s something you would really enjoy

He’s catalogued your tastes within his mind, so if there’s a show he thinks you’ll like he’ll be the first to recommend an impromptu movie night

He exclusively finds games the two of you can try out together no matter what skill level you are. He can take the time to teach you if need be. He’s just so giddy to be sharing an interest with you. And then the two of you can talk about it at any time! That makes him so happy!

“I think you would really like this character actually.” He says with an excited wobbly smile. Some character is holding a sword on the packaging in his hands. “So they go on this long quest because their sister was turned into a demon. Literally the coolest- okay, so it starts out like this-”

If you hold his hand under the table he jumps suddenly and bangs his knee underneath it. Literally terrible at hiding it. He’d keep holding your hand anyways though, just don’t expect him to focus all that well on what anyone else is saying

Satan:

Satan seems like he's somewhere in the EXACT middle of being over the top PDA and super private tbh

but I reckon he leans more towards the side of being unashamed in his affection towards you.

why wouldn’t he show how much he appreciates you loving him? The obvious answer is to return such splendid affections.

And it’s not like him to hide what an absolute stunner you are either. He’s not an idiot

The aura around him is enough to keep any unwanted onlookers from staring for TOO long so it’s not like he’s ever worried

Will stare at you with the most lovestruck smile and when you point it out he honestly mentions how pretty he thought your smile was, or how your hairstyle is very fitting for today

“Oh? Did I miss the memo somehow? Should I have been matching too?” Satan smiles as he admires your outfit.

Honestly if it helps make his wardrobe better then please bring up the idea more

His compliments are always sudden and unexpected though

He notices the little details about you more, and is really good at remembering things, so if you mentioned wanting to check out a new place he can book an appointment there no problem

The show you like is getting a movie adaptation? He’ll make a reminder to buy some tickets so you both can go see it. He’ll snag a CD copy when the timing is right as well

He never really says it outloud but he likes when you hug his side

likes to idly hold your hand while he reads, or if he's talking with a few colleagues your hand stays grasped in his, even if he is a little preoccupied at the moment

honestly he’s just the right balanced of being thoughtful and romantic when it comes to you

He has a pretty solid streak of being sneaky so he’s always the first to reach for your hand under the table. He’s willing to do a lot more if you’re up for it

Asmo:

Asmo affectionate king!!!! he’s a PDA fiend what else would you expect

he likes showing off and he likes showing you off just as much. So if that means hugging you constantly and always wanting to touch you then that’s how he shows

He’s always touching you if he can, hanging off of you and putting his arm around your waist

Doesn’t matter what your confidence level is like he’s going to hype you up.

The two of you walk into a room and he’s like “Alright, MC just stepped in the building! <3 If y’all don’t start clapping I’m gonna blow this place up! X) “

You still have no idea how he’s saying the symbols out loud

Of course you're uncomfortable with him showing affection all the time in front of others or it makes a little embarrassed he can tone it down a bit.

All depends on your wants, and he’d always be willing to talk about the things you like and dislike him doing

King of setting extremely intricate boundaries mhm mhm

He’s pretty good at reading body language as well (for obvious reasons), so it helps him to know when he might need to hold back on being as clingy

its a different story when you're alone though

He thinks of you a lot when he’s buying things or will immediately send you links to websites with cute things. He’s always very upfront about getting things for you (unless he wants it to be a surprise)

“Which one would you like more? This or this?” He’d send via text. He already went to buy them both anyways, but he gets very giddy at the cash register if he guessed right.

Constantly takes you out to try new stores as well, because why not! Why wouldn’t he share the experience with you

Holds your hand under the table, above the table, he can be under the table- it’s whatever, literally whatever you want from him he’s up for it.

Beelzebub:

sure there’s the obvious thing of him sharing his food with you, or asking if you’ve been eating properly throughout the day, or buying you something on the way home

but he honestly just likes being near you and hanging out

Beel is the type to unintentionally show what he’s feeling, he’s like an open book. So if he thinks you look extremely pretty today he’ll smile all lovestruck and caress your face. He’ll tell you outright he thinks you're pretty.

The words leave his tongue before he even considers what he’s saying. And it’s not like he even overthinks it afterwards, he’s literally already onto pondering something else

Or if he wants to cuddle with you he might stare for a very long time between you and the bed, and it’ll look like he’s seriously in thought. “Did you want to cuddle?” He goes really still. “How did you know?” He’s genuinely confused on how you knew.

so goofy

He’s really genuine and caring and is pretty much always thinking about you, which, he was unaware of what that meant when he first met you

The moment he realized he might like you more than normal his brain stops functioning properly for a few days. When he invited you to spot him during his workout routine he only lifted you up 20 times :( oh he must've been seriously thinking about something important then huh?

One of the brothers caught him carefully typing “How do I know if I like someone?” on his phone once. It never gets brought up again but Beel knows they will never let him live it down

Would give your thigh an affectionate pat under the table, nothing too risque. But it’s his way of saying he’s here with you. Unfortunately his mind is more focused on what’s on the table.

Belphie:

he is so........ 🙄 😒

Belphie has the most roundabout ways of showing affection

at first he completely has a wall up since he’s still so tentative about you, but then something just suddenly switches one day and he’s like ‘I need to be around MC right tf now’

he compliments your voice bcuz he genuinely feels that it’s soothing to hear. The first time he falls asleep while you’re telling a story you probably take offense.

Were you that boring to him?!?! Belphie??

He has to quickly come clean and admit that he just finds hearing you talk so relaxing, because he’d really rather not upset you somehow and ruin everything

just like a lot of the other brothers he will check in on you to see if you're hungry or if you need anything

he’s lowkey needy when it comes to wanting your attention, so expect to be messaged a lot. his love language is getting a response from you in any way possible. that means physically as well.

Teasing you comes almost second-nature to him. Good luck MC

also sure there’s the obvious of him always wanting to sleep on you (your chest, your lap etc) but he likes to offer his own body as a makeshift pillow, and he’s dead serious about it

Sneakily leaves stuffed plushies in your room for you to find later as well. Kinda like how cats leave animals for you to find later lol.

He gets all smug about it later like “Do you like your plushies? I got got Raphael to custom make them. I might get one made of me so you can cuddle it when I’m not around.” He contemplates having Solomon imbue it with some sort of magic that can let him feel when you cuddle it.

Why couldn’t he just give the plushies to MC in person like a normal demon???

If you happen to be napping with him, he will use his power to make sure that youre having pleasant dreams. He’ll just never tell you. But he might also be annoyed if you never mention feeling better.

“I don’t think I’ve been this well rested in months!” Belphie, clenching his fists, “Gee I wonder why that is.” “Do you think Barbatos has been doing something different with the food?” Belphie, with clenched teeth. “No I doubt it’s that.”

For a long time he was really tentative about hugging you bcuz of xy&z, but he’s surprisingly gentle now when he can hug you

Holding hands under the table is banned for Belphie. It starts off innocent but he gets handsy, and always at the most inappropriate times.

Diavolo:

This man is both equally unaware and calculating with his affections towards you

He seems like such the touchy-feely type, I feel like he might have to restrain himself just a little when it comes to you. But just a little.

likes to caress your shoulders in a firm but comforting hold

hugs you all the time constantly whenever you happen to be around him! and thoroughly enjoys holding you in his arms

he would carry you around with him to meetings if it wasnt so ‘inappropriate’ and ‘unbecoming’ of the next ruler of hell to have someone practically glued to him like that

Doesn’t mean he still hasn’t done it at least once or twice (praying for the media/press clean up Barbatos will inevitably have to do at some point)

if youre the type to run across the room and jump into his arms he'll catch you and spin you around a little and kiss your forehead. why wouldn’t he? You’re so intriguing and small in comparison to him. Holding you makes me feel so giddy

His laugh is booming, like thunder in your ear as he holds you. You weigh nothing to him honestly. “I do hope you’re comfortable, MC. We might be here for awhile.” You joke about wanting to lift him too but he’s genuinely excited about the possibility.

but if you’re not too keen on big displays of affection he tries his best to make up in other ways. He's not necessarily toning himself done because he loves you SO much, but its important to him to show that he respects your wishes!

Usually he’s the type to watch others have fun from the sidelines and occasionally join in the chaos, but if you’re involved no questions asked he’s joining in the fun

He makes it known that he appreciates when you message or call him, hearing your voice gives him motivation to focus on finishing work faster

He’ll hold your hand wherever it doesn’t matter. Playing footsie with him is very dangerous though, he’s broken one of the table legs on accident. And he’s not the best at keeping the volume of his laughter down, so you get found out every time.

Barbatos is suffering from the aftermath

Barbatos:

he's more-so the subtle type

Barbatos is merely polite with his adoration for you at first

bcuz honestly he usually has a lot of other responsibilities to take care of; so he never expected to be so enamored with you like this over time. It kind of drives him crazy, but he’d never outright admit it since he’s so put together on the surface

he’s a giver, sure, so there’s the obvious of him baking you treats and indulging you in special blends of tea, but depending on what you’re like as a person he’ll find other sneaky gifts to give you

will return your books on time if he sees you're struggling with organizing

calls you to remind you to take your meds if any at all

personally brings food and any special items you might need right up to your dorm if youre feeling sick or just generally in a bad mood

such a thoughtful guy..

starts to offhandedly mention you were on his mind, but in a very roundabout way so you don’t fully pick up on it tbh

if any lesser demons at the school are giving you trouble they are quietly dealt with in the background, completely unaware to you

he grasps your hands a little more and will try to get your opinions on things (he genuinely wants to know what you think, but he will smoothly use it as an excuse to hear you speak, or hold your hand or to simply have your attention on him)

”If I may be so bold as to ask, what sort of flowers do you prefer to go along with this display? I’m a fan of these as they only bloom once a year under special conditions. But is there anything you’re drawn to in particular, MC?” Sneakily stores your answer away for later in his brain when it’s time to buy you gifts

Has the odd display of sudden possessiveness, just to keep things fun. Likes to catch you off-guard with his flirting

Wouldn’t really hold your hand under the table, but he’d give your hand or shoulder a quick squeeze of acknowledgment. He’s more of the ‘gives you a quick kiss on the forehead as you pass him in the hallways’ type

Solomon:

“What do you like me or something? That’s kind of embarassing for you.” He says as the two of you walk hand in hand on what’s probably your 6047394759345th date

Solomon loves teasing you relentlessly, or even if he’s unaware this man is flirting in a way that might give you a headache

pats your head sometimes and occasionally ruffles your hair (to your dismay)

(especially if it’s styled really nicely. cmon man-)

teasing IS mostly how he displays affection honestly

but in all seriousness he does have a few moments where his affection is genuine and soft towards you. He finds ways to be clever with his gifts

its canon that he would make a special perfume just for the two of you to smell (which, is as cute and intimate as it is a little goofy)

MC constantly wonders if they should just wear one perfume or if they have to make the serious choice of wearing two different scents... guh, perhaps Solomon didn’t think this through well

He will try to cook for you but it’s completely up to you to keep him away from the stove tbh. You can hand the scraps over to Raphael if youre really desperate to not hurt his feelings + keep living

he might be busy and ever mysterious, but he likes to show that he’s listening to you

just like Barbatos he’ll do the occasional gesture to keep you on your toes, but he’s much more of a wild card

Doesn’t hold your hand under the table bcuz he’s busy holding your hand up to his lips while he occasionally reads a spell book. Though I suspect he’s like Belphie in the way that he’d get handsy under the table if you let him. He’s on thin ice basically

Simeon:

he shows affection by seeking your company out more

he’s not very direct with his wants at first since I feel like it’s in his nature to be more... lowkey... as if he’s moderating himself to an extent if that makes sense.

He adores everything about you of course! He would shout from the rooftops how much he loved you if he didn’t have the self-restraint or gall to act logical, but I can assure you he feels very shaken up inside about you

So expect him to start hanging around you a lot more. He won’t make any excuses about his intentions but he’ll still be embarrassed

he tries to hold your hand constantly, but always chickens out at the last moment. its not until he talks himself into it does he start to sneakily hold your hands. He really likes touching you on the downlow

the wording of this next one might sound a bit weird but the biggest sign of affection from him is consent. he always wants to make sure you’re absolutely fine with everything he does first, regardless of how much he might just want to spoil you in the moment ie “MC may I hold your hand?” He’s literally itching to do it.

“May I kiss you?” Please let him kiss you he keeps glancing at your lips and he’s not that sly about it

“Can I hug you?” He’s been wanting to hold you in his chest for awhile now and it’s making him feel quite flustered

otherwise, he does simple things like inviting you out to eat or complimenting you when he can. he’ll compliment you all the time in general but he’s deceptively good at reading your moods, so he considers ways to make each compliment as genuine as he possibly can

he would hold your hand under the table AND play footsie with you if he’s feeling playful

Luke:

ah, the duality of being both a baby and a little weirdo menace

Luke was so hesitant to be hanging out with you for the longest time but once he gets attached to you it’s always very hard for him to not ask Simeon to visit you

gets embarrassed sometimes if you give him a genuine compliment, but he immediately refuses if you ask if you should stop.

cute little platonic hugs here and there. his face lights up every time so it’s hard to stay in a bad mood when you're so comforting to him

he expresses affection most through his cooking though and always gives you treats on the premise that "I made too many so here you go!" or "I was trying out a new recipe, you will be my first taste-tester!" (ignoring the fact that Barbatos and Simeon were already the first to try them but once again, excuses excuses)

he honestly just likes to hang out with you. If you’re not another parental figure to him then he definitely views you as a cool older sibling type, so it’s important to him to have your attention

Simeon sends you little text messages a lot about how Luke will mention you in passing bcuz he wants to have another group outing again

#obey me #obey me shall we date #obey me lucifer #obey me mammon #obey me levi #obey me satan #obey me asmo #obey me beel #obey me barbatos #obey me belphie #obey me simeon #obey me luke #obey me solomon #obey me diavolo #obey me x reader #Reader x Canon #oc x canon #ask carly

Can I request how the feral boys would ask you/ what they would do for your first time sleeping over as their girlfriend? That sounds weird but I hope you know what I mean lol. I love your writing by the way!

hi friend , and thank u ! i appreciate it <3 this is a super cute idea and i had a lot of fun writing it ,,,,, im so soft for them i can't . xoxoxoxoxo , starlight

AYO LOOK AT THESE : the smallest bit of smut but overall fluff ! soft feral boys content , come get yall juice

reblogs are always appreciated !!! <3

dream

wouldn’t be planned tbh , you’d been at his place all day and you’re both too tired to drive

you’d start to call an uber and clay would turn your phone over

“you could… stay here, if you want?”

it was a no brainer

of course you’d stay with him

clay would be so excited , smiling through his sleepy haze

he’d finally get up from his computer just to shower you with kisses all over your face

he’d tackle you back onto his bed , his soft , silly kisses turning into lingering, hard kisses

all teeth and tongue and his hands all over you

he’d get one of his legs between yours, shuddering at the way you’d whine into his mouth

his hands would make their way down to your hips

he’d grind your hips down on him , your sleepiness only making you more sensitive

you bet your ass that he’d make you cum just from grinding on his thigh

he lives in a constant state of horny™ even when he’s tired

clay would be so cocky at how he’d made you finish , doing virtually nothing

but he would go so soft at the way you were exhausted after that , yawning and rubbing your eyes

‘baby’ , ‘love’ , ‘pretty girl’

so affectionate

you could’ve fallen asleep just like that but clay makes you get up and change

“baby , you don't want to sleep in your clothes”

“sleep in mine instead”

you would just grumble back at him until he would physically lift you out of bed

clay would help you out of your clothes

he’d put you in his sweats and a giant dream hoodie

just incase sap walked in for some reason

doesn't want him seeing any of the goods™

he’d carry you to the bathroom and find an extra toothbrush

clay would absolutely try to talk to you while brushing his teeth and the two of you would laugh s o hard at each other trying to talk with mouths full of toothpaste

again , he would pick you up and carry you back to his bed , shutting the door behind the two of you

“don't you want to say goodnight to sap?” “no :)”

the two of you would fall onto his bed and be asleep within 10 minutes , completely tangled in each other

he talks in his sleep

but you snore

so its even

☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁

george

soft george my beloved

he’d probably plan your guys first ‘sleepover’

he would want to make it special , and definitely do something memorable

george would bring it up to you like a week before

he’d practically invite you like it was a birthday party :,)

i can't

he’d make reservations for a nice dinner before and get all dressed up

george would pick you up and hold your hand on the console

he’d open all the doors for you

he'd pull out your c h a i r

yall would definitely be cracking jokes all throughout dinner in the middle of this fancy restaurant

george would ABSOLUTELY knock his silverware off the table at some point

you would have to fight to not spit your drink out , laughing so hard

he’d skip on desert at the restaurant and take you to dairy queen or something

it would be the two of you in your fancy attire , sitting outside some tiny ice cream parlor

looking at eachother like you were the only two people on earth

yall are in L O V E

once you two got home george would carry your overnight bag in

he would change immediately

bc he h8’s fancy clothes

but wanted to dress up for you

after you guys changed into pajamas , you’d stay up talking for hours

he’d tell you stories of him and all the feral boys

you’d tell him stupid things you did as a kid

the two of you would want to make the most of the extended time you had together and stay up until like 2 in the morning

george’s voice would get all low and raspy from talking for so long

you’d fall asleep on the couch together when you physically couldn’t hold your eyes open anymore

george would wake up when the sun started shining through the blinds

he would carry you up to his bed

then promptly fall back asleep with you in his arms

☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁

sapnap

snapmap my love .

this man doesn’t plan shi t

it would be very spur of the moment , the two of you laughing at some joke that he made when he’d grab your hand suddenly v serious

“will you sleep with me tonight?”

he’d look so earnest while asking that and you would BURST into laughter

it would take nick a hot sec to realise what he’d said and once he did . he would simply . disintegrate .

he would be so dramatic about it too

“i was trying to be romantic ! stop laughing at me !”

and you would just sit there , laughing so hard that you couldn’t produce noise anymore , just silent wheezes

you would start to cry and nick would pOUT

you would just nod , literally unable to produce words

but sap would brighten up at that

“so you’ll stay the night?”

once you got control of yourself , the two of you continued on doing what you were doing

it was like a normal day other than the fact that it ,,,, wouldn’t end

you two watched movies and played minecraft all day , being lazy together

you’d doordash dinner or order pizza or something so you didn’t have to leave the house

he’d have to stream and you would just chill , eating pizza in bed

once it became apparent that the stream was gonna last longer than planned , you would quietly come up behind him and drop a kiss on his cheek

he’d grin at you but be confused ???

you’d text him so your voice wouldn’t pop up on stream

‘gonna take a shower / keep myself busy’

he’d text back a single ‘👍🏼’

sapnap texts like a dad and NO ONE can tell me otherwise

you’d shower and get dressed , then wander down to the kitchen trying to find something to do

scavenger hunt™ for cookie ingredients

you’d bake his favorite and surprise him with a warm cookie im s o f t

the SMILE that would cross his face my god

he would feel so loved

he’d mute stream to thank you, putting his hands around your waist and burying his face into your stomach

you k n o w he’d find some way to end stream early after that , wanting to be with you

the two of you would finish off all the cookies , watching scary movies together

he’d hold you when you jump at all the spooky shit

you’d do the same for him bc sap is baby

chat . i'm kinda scared . lowkey .

you were both half asleep by the time you made your way back up to his room

you’d be lights out the minute your head hit the pillows

and he’d be big spoon

☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁

karl

karl would probably ask you that day , texting you before you’d even come over to ask if you would stay the night

you two had technically slept over before , but never at karl’s place (usually pulling all nighters with the feral boys on stream or with the beast crew)

you can not tell me . that karl . would not build a fort . with you .

and he would 100% go all out with it

he’d get lights to string up on the inside (the twinkle ones for sure)

he would get a fuckton of pillows and the softest blankets he can find and pile them in

karl would essentially make a nest for the two of you

you’d spend the first hour alone sharing soft kisses and cuddling so close that you weren't sure where you ended and karl began

he’d hold you , letting you lay on his chest and listen to his heartbeat

you’d talk about everything and nothing at all , just wanting to hear each other’s voices

until someone’s stomach growled

he’d laugh until he couldn't breathe

you had tears rolling down your face , your stomach hurting from the giggles

he’d either take you to get food before or doordash your favorite

because neither of you can cook blESS

you’d pick out cute , matching pajamas for your first official night together

but

he’d end up giving you his clothes to sleep in

because he likes you wearing his stuff

and it's more comfortable than your fancy pajamas

he’d cover his eyes and face a blanket/wall while you were changing

the only time either of you would leave the fort would be for more snacks or to go to the bathroom

karl would bring his laptop in and turn in a movie as you two were settling in for the night

(some super dumb kids movie)

(my brain immediately went to the lorax)

(i’ll see myself out)

and he’d stay awake until you fell asleep, your face buried into his t-shirt

it made his heart so full that you felt safe enough to fall asleep with him

he’d play with your hair and trace over your features as soft as possible

because you're just so beautiful when you’re asleep ??

karl murmurs how much he loves you , everything that he loves about you while he knows you can't hear it

he’d drift off with you still in his arms, his lips pressed to the top of your head in a sweet, gentle kiss

and the two of you would stay like that the entire night , keeping each other warm

im so soft for him

can u tell

karl jacobs my love

☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁ ☁

quackity

listen

everyone writes big q as a stupid dumb dummy

and while he can be that at some times

this man would be so fucking thoughtful ??? when it came to his girl ?????

you literally can't tell me otherwise .

much like gogy he would plan something special

but like

he can COOK yall

he’d make you a nice ass dinner

and set up a picnic in the backyard

he’d light candles and make it all fancy

literally it would be a scene out of a movie

once you finished eating dinner the two of you would watch the sunset

he’d play guitar and sING FOR YOU

you’d stay outside soaking in the heat even after the sun had gone down

stargazing for as long as you could

alex would put his arm around you and have you lay on his chest

you’d listen to his heartbeat while you pointed out the big dipper

he’d make up his own constellations aljidhkuvgfhadj

you two would only go inside because you were being eaten alive by mosquitos

one of you would play music off your phone and yall would slow dance in the kitchen

he would repeatedly tell you how much he loved you , pressing tender kisses to your neck , your jaw

until a fucking ad would play

and alex would just lose his shit

he would laugh so hard he’d ipad kid cough

then you would simply ascend

the two of you would be laying on the kitchen floor absolutely D Y I N G of laughter

you’d stay there for a while , trying to recover

by the time you did , your ribs were sore from all the giggles

alex would pick you up and throw you over his shoulder , walking you up to bed

he’d suplex you onto the mattress

the two of you are children around each other tbh

that would lead to a wrestling match

until you’d found your way onto his lap , pinning him by his wrists

w h e w

the way that man would kiss you after that ? bye im gone

lets just say by the time he was finished you would both be exhausted

he’d tell you how pretty you were , how good you did

the two of you would fall asleep with tangled limbs , half kissing

okay but seriously can you maybe go into what inspired you to write tiny boy big complaints, handsy hyperfixation (a classic), and the newest snf one?? and also maaaaybe the older one about teleporting if you wanna do that one too???

thank youuuuuu :))

- cal <333

from this milestone post / tiny boy big complaints / handsy hyperfixation / losing the battle winning the war / the troubles with teleporting

some of my favs in here <3

tiny boy big complaints my beloved ): and cals fav <3333 this fic is so special to me even though it's one of the lower note ones! it was actually a prompt sent in by cal (found here), so it's kind of hilarious to me it turned out to be his favorite one ):

I wanted george to be soft and tiny and I wanted dream to be soft but playful with him, and somehow I created one of my favorite things ever by doing so. I think this is another fic that I didn't really brainrot the concept with anyone, I am actually 99.9% positive I blacked out and wrote this entire thing and then made cal read it for me before I posted it and cal helped me pick the title tooooooo

cal is just the best is the bottom line actually :D this one was written for him and me and us and that's really all I can say about this one <3

- - - - - -

handsy hyperfixation was started december 26th, the morning after the dream team did their christmas stream, because I went completely insane over pictures of dreams hands (enjoy the blurry pictures <3)

then I sent these messages to cal (yes he is nick nelson) followed after I blacked out and wrote 4K words in one sitting:

then I let the fic sit until the end of february, and I finished it in the beginning of march. I will be honest, this one was absolutely 100000% a self indulgent fic, purely for myself and I didnt really care if I posted it or not. cal actually told me to name it "mushie's self indulgent hand fic", which....absolutely not....but it's correct. whatever. sue me, Im obsessed with dreams hands ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

this is my favorite thing I've ever written, it's my baby, it's 7.2K words for me and me alone lmfao. I actually was terrified to post it bc I didn't think anyone would read it, and now it's over 100 notes. I actually could cry thinking about how proud I am of it (even though I messed up some things in it, I don't care, I poured so much into this fic)

so yeah. that's handsy 🥺

- - - - - -

losing the battle winning the war was written 100% because of @wishitweresummer. this little idiot asked to commission me (which I said no to bc she's an idiot) bc she wanted to read about back of the neck raspberries....I wonder why? she also wanted it to be the first time george got back of the neck raspberries! cute, right? again....I wonder why :D

cal named it and its the perfect title tbh

summer requested for it to be playful and I know summer loves rough, so I made sure to really play up the snf fighting dynamic and I actually love what I created ):

she ALSO requested for george to struggle and be cocky, and for him to come out on top and completely destroy sap. she said she wanted it to be in a place that wasn't super common, a new spot for george to discover, and I adore the spot above the hip bc it's such a surprisingly sensitive spot! so that's how that was born

I truly just wrote this up to make sure I flustered the shit out of summer. I included things that people know get her and things that only I (and maybe one or two others) know about purely just to have summer yell at me for it :D

I love how this one turned out, targeted fics always turn out better to me for some reason <3

- - - - - -

the troubles with teleporting was the first time I ever wrote XD 🥺 this was a prompt that emma sent in, I can't find the actual prompt bc it was when my tumblr was a different name and the link is broken BUT

I remember just getting this idea to make the teleporting itself tk george at first instead of XD doing it right away, just bc I had the idea that it would kind of feel like when you go down a drop on a rollercoaster???? but a little more intense?

I also remember being super excited bc emma actually had the idea of the teleporting itself tkling instead of XD, but neither of us mentioned it to each other until after I wrote it that way! great minds think alike :D

again, it was my first time writing XD, and for those of you who don't know, XD is one of my all time favorite lers to read and write. I wanted to make sure I did XD justice, and I really love this silly lil fic, and how XD winds up just tkling the heck out of george at the end anyways (they even lifted george's arms up above his head while XD's bottom set got his ribs oh my goodness that was cruel huh 🫠)

the teases in this were pretty good too (':

#awkwardtickleetoo #asks #okay sorry this is like a novel but.........I explained it all didn't I #thank u again baby for sending in stuff ur the greatest ): <3 #i love the ones u sent in #u know how special handsy is to me and also tiny #ugh i love them sm #mushies 300 milestone

Request for anon: Fav boys with an S/O that's usually a hardass but has a moment of just 'oh my god that's so fucking cute' that they start crying??

Bakugou:

• Listen, you weren't totally against showing emotion but you really only showed two

• Frustration and 'happiness'

• Aka you laughed a lot but had no problem blowing up on someone

• No one had ever seen you outside of those two moods

• Half the class just assumed you never got sad or anything

• The other half assumed you never really had a reason too but maybe one day you'd snap

• Crying? You? Off the table.

• You're not capable of it

• They'd seen you detach yourself from things without a second thought

• CRAZY how you and Bakugou actually WORKED together in a relationship

• To be honest Bakugou doesnt even know if he's seen you cry

• He figures he'll see it eventually

• And he's right :)

• Bc one day you two are walking ahead if the bakusquad

• And theres this fucking puppy

• And it's so small

• Its a lil weiner dog

• And an audible rasp is ripped out of your throat followed by a small 'oh my god'

• His head fuckin WHIPS around• And he's met with you tearing up as you stare at this small dog and his mouth d r o p a

• This??? This is what it takes for you to cry????

• You put a hand over your mouth, mumbling something else and Bakugou is having a stroke

• You're like full crying now

• There are t e a r s

• He moves a little closer, wrapping and arm around your shoulder

• "Are you seriously crying over a dog right now?"

No words. You just nod.

• He accepts it

• No questions asked

• Bakusquad is what you call

• V fuckin confused

• "I want a puppy," you mumbled, breathing uneven.

"I know,"

"Katsu he was so tiny,"

"I know,"

• Cue more crying

Izuku:

• Hard ass 100%

• emotionally constipated on the Bakugou level

• emotion what's that??

• Idk

• Neither do you apparently

• You were just chilling most of the time

• Just- looking really blank

• never really felt comfortable with showing a lot of emotion

• People could use that against you

• call you week-

• You didn't want that

• you were dating the new symbol of peace, you had to keep up

• This happens during a rescue

• You get people out and once you're standing on the sidelines, the fight over- this little boy runs up to you, hugging your legs

• Thank your's are falling out of his mouth and he looks teary eye'd

• He puts his hands up and makes grabby hands and you immediately pick him up

• You kiss his forehead, your hold on the child tightening

• I mean at this point you're crying too

• Bc he was so damn cute

• Even with all the dirt on his face

• And Izuku is just standing there

• baffled

• bc you

• the person who was literally STABBED four times and kept a straight face the whole time about a year ago

• is crying over a child saying thank you

• He takes care of the press- and whatever else he needs to before slowly making his way over to you, pressing a kiss to your cheek.

• The boy was still in your arms

• "You okay princess?"

"Fine, thanks,"

• New image for the press!!

• You went from known for no emotion to Oh my god they have emotion????

• ur v upset about it

Hitoshi:

• He know you cant express emotions exactly how you want

• you'd told him it always felt weird and uncomfortable

• Especially letting other people see it

• Deadass took him 3 months after the initial four you guys were dating to pry that out of you

• He's never really minded though

• he just wants you to feel comfortable and be okay

• So he's always gone along with the casually mean laugh a lot vibe you've had

• But one day

• one faithful day

• you two are walking after an icecream date

• And you see these 2 little kittens in a beat up box

• you GASP and your hand immediately leaves his as you jog over

• And you coo at them, picking them up, one in each hand

• He's behind you when the water works start

• "Toshi...they're so cute-" you sniff

"Are you crying?"

"No- Yeah, just look at them. They're so tiny, they're gonna die out here alone,"

"Oh my god babe,"

"Toshi we have to take them back."

"I don't know if we can do that, we can take them to a shelter-"

• you're full on sobbing now, a blubbering and hiccuping mess

• he feels like he's gonna pass out

• what's he supposed to do

• you chose now to start crying??

• "No-No because they might end up on the street again and they need love, toshiiiii-" you whine out

• So he hugs you from behind, using one hand to pet the cat in your left hand. "Okay, we'll take them back. We can talk to Aizawa sensei."

• he presses a gentle kiss to your neck

• You def apologize later for crying in front if him, almost refusing to look him in the eye

• He flicks you and tells you to do it more often

Sero:

• hardass?? Yes and no

• You vibe

• you just chill and go with the punches

• but GOD do you refuse affection and basic human emotion.

• It took him 3 MONTHS to convince you to go out with him

• That he wasn't going to hurt you or judge you

• 3 MONTHS

• And what felt like fucking forever for you to accept his advances for affection

• He's so patient with you, you'll never find another man like this

• pls keep him forever

• Anyway now yall just vibe together

• But he's never seen you upset tbh

• And he's never seen you cry

• You push all that down, constantly just staying in a place of whatever

• He's a little concerned about it ngl

• but he doesn't know how to really help it

• Has deadass secretly been reading books about it

• Anyway

• One day y'all are chilling

• You're in his room

• he's at his desk- looking over an essay that was due the next day and you were in his hammock, already having finished it

• But he was bopping

• he had an earbud in one ear and he was mumbling along with the song, bopping his head and moving around in his chair, randomly bursting out a lyric here and there

• And then he heard a sniffle

• He immediately turns around and he see's you

• Your eyes are watery

• he pulls his earbud out and he's making his way over to you, clearly worried

• "Babe what's wrong?"

You shake your head, waving him off.

"No no, c'mon tell me-"

"You're just so damn cute and I love you so much. Precious."

• He's confused for a moment before it processes and he grins

"Is that why you're crying?"

"Yes!" You wipe your eyes again. "Thank you,"

He climbs into the hammock carefully, and wraps his arms around you.

• Not particularly what he had in mind when you finally decided to show emotion like that but he'd take it

Kirishima:

• puppy and cat

• aka

• Bubbly jock and hard ass motherfucker who can and will kill you

• He knows that you cant freely express what you feel all the time

• He understands more than most people think

• Because he knows it's easier to just be bitter than risk getting hurt again

• and you've opened up a lot!!

• and he's proud of you! Really.

• He tells you all the time and you gag and call him a sap but he knows that you secretly enjoy it

• Anyway you two are eating lunch outside

• Kirishima is babbling about something that happened after class the other day and you were eating quietly listening to your boyfriends ramblings

• And suddenly he feels a finger on his lips

• He opens his eyes confused, going to talk again before you sush him

• You're looking at a bird

• a REALLY small bird

• you take a small piece of bread from his sandwhich

• "Hi baby," you coo, "how you doin? Want some food?" You slowly hold the piece out

• The birds head tilts a little and he takes a hop

• then another

• and he watches you tense up

• and the bird takes the bread piece and flies away, he watches it go before looking back at you

• he about has a stroke

• you're fucking crying

• "Babe- wait- why are you crying?" He puts a hand on your shoulder

"What the fuck, that was so cute. Eij, he was so cute."

"Well yeah-"

"Jesus he was so tiny," you sniff, "did you see the way he tilted his head- oh my god and his little hop? No fuck off I'm gonna cry more,"

• And you do

• But honestly he doesn't even care bc you're finally letting something else in

• and it means you're comfortable around him

• so he only wraps his arms around your waist and pull you closer

• "he was very cute,"

Summary

After Harley mistakenly confesses her love and then promptly takes it back, Ivy spends some time sorting through the things she absolutely doesn't feel (and the ones she does). Selina and Harley don't quite help.

Chapter 1: Tumblr | AO3

Chapter 2: AO3

If you ever asked Poison Ivy if she’s into meditation, she’d say she isn’t.

Actually, if you ever asked Poison Ivy if she’s into meditation, she’d probably stare you down until you crumbled under the sheer weight of her judgment and apologized for ever talking to her, but that’s beside the point.

The point is, Ivy doesn’t meditate. The concept of meditation, if you ask her, goes in the same patchouli-scented box as moon-charged crystals and essential oils.

No. What Ivy does is… introspection. Yeah. She introspects. She consciously clears her mind of all intrusive thoughts. Which may sound a lot like meditation, maybe? But — she cannot stress this enough — it’s not the same thing.

So there she is. Sitting on her couch. Introspecting. And it may look like she’s staring off into the distance, but she’s actually looking at a nearly invisible, tiny little hint of a green sprout that’s managed to grow in a crack on the windowsill.

There it is. A tiny little fighter. Just like—

Nope.

No way.

We are absolutely not thinking about her. We’re introspecting. So Ivy takes in a deep breath, in through her nose, eyes fluttering closed as she exhales slowly and then opens them and tries again.

As she was saying. A tiny little sprout. She could go over there and touch it and quite literally breathe life into it. She can’t tell what kind of plant it is, but she could make it bloom if it’s a flowering species. What if it’s a tree? She could make it grow so big its roots would tear this whole building apart just like her heart was torn apart last ni—

Motherf—

“Morning, my little dill pickle.”

Selina climbs in through the window, practically gliding into Ivy’s apartment with the kind of grace that would normally make Ivy stop and stare and perhaps have a not-quite-respectful thought or two.

Listen: she has eyes. Don’t read into it.

Anyway. As graceful and ridiculously nimble as Selina is, she’s also way up high in Ivy’s shit list at the moment (second only to you know who), so today is not the day for lighthearted conversation and platonic crushes.

“Fuck you, Selina,” Ivy offers as a greeting, glancing at the plant to make sure it’s still there. And it is, of course. Selina fucking Kyle may be a bitch and a half, but she knows how to move without leaving a trace.

“Now?” Selina cocks one perfectly manicured eyebrow at Ivy, the slightest hint of a teasing smirk on her face. “I mean I was gonna offer brunch, but that doesn’t sound like the worst midday plan.”

Ivy simply stares for a moment, as if she’s forgotten if there’s one person in the world that’s absolutely immune to even her most wilting looks, that’s Selina fucking Kyle.

“Oh, come on,” Selina practically groans, “stop it. Brooding is such a teen boy move.”

“I am not brooding.”

“Right.” With one single word, Selina makes it clear that she doesn’t believe Ivy and, most importantly, that she doesn’t care enough to argue. “Anyway. Brunch? My treat.”

Ivy closes her eyes. Not meditating. Just introspecting. Just trying to channel the urge to make a full-grown sequoia grow out of Selina Kyle’s ass into something productive. One deep breath in through her nose and—

“We can have margaritas!” Selina lets out a quiet chuckle as she admires the perfectly matte black polish on her fingernails. “Yikes. Too soon?”

Fuck introspection.

“I. Am going. To fucking murder you.” Ivy stands up with every intention to make good on that promise, and Selina must read it in her eyes because for the first time since Ivy’s known her — for the first time in her life, maybe — Selina looks scared.

Well, maybe not scared.

But she is absolutely concerned.

“Fuck me, Ive, damn,” Selina takes one step back, no longer smirking, “calm down, will you?”

Ivy stops, Selina’s audacity basically jolting her out of her murderous rage. “Calm down, Selina? Fucking seriously? You did what you did and now you come here and tell me to fucking calm down?”

Selina tilts her head just so, like she’s conceding (against her will) that maybe there is a reason for Ivy to be somewhat upset with her.

“Oh, come on,” she sighs, rolling her shoulders like the tension has to leave her body somehow, and it will certainly not be via an apology, “it wasn’t even real poison.”

Ivy’s eyes widen slightly in disbelief. Does Selina think she’s mad because she thinks Harley was in actual danger?

No. No, Selina can’t think that, because Selina may be an asshole, but she’s a very smart asshole. So she must know Ivy’s well aware of Harley’s immunity to toxins. She must know that’s not even remotely the reason Ivy’s spent the last eleven hours and some change introspecting all thoughts of last night out of her mind.

For a split second, Ivy feels something similar to warmth towards Selina as she considers that maybe she’s simply ignoring the embarrassing part of the event to spare Ivy. Maybe she’s pretending this is about Harley’s physical wellbeing and not… well. The other thing.

Sadly, the split second passes.

“If it helps,” Selina says, and even before she finishes the sentence Ivy can already sense it won’t help at all, “it’s totally reciprocated.”

Ivy feels it crawling up her veins, thick like sap. She’s managed to distill plenty of emotions, turned them into tonics and toxins and elixirs and used them for her own benefit and the Green’s. She’s bottled love — well, lust — and hatred and rage. Fear, even. Insanity, ironically enough. But this.

This… this humiliation.

Oh, this is something else.

Ivy closes her eyes. In through her nose, and even the air feels like it has to go through that thick mixture of (public) pain and weakness and acknowledged vulnerability to get to her lungs.

It’s one thing to have Harley see her like this. Like that. Like last night. Defenses down and heart out there in the open like her ribcage’s forgotten its purpose. That’s fine, she figures, because it’s been the norm for years and years and years. It’s nothing new, really, to have Harley see her accidentally stumble over the line into pathetic from time to time. It happens.

But Selina.

Selina fucking Kyle.

Selina saw that and she understood what she was seeing and now she’s acknowledging it, and Ivy isn’t even mad anymore.

I mean, she is. She’s really fucking mad.

She’s just many other things as well as mad, so it’s harder to focus on it.

Out through her mouth. Slowly. And her voice is nice and even when she opens her eyes and looks at Selina once again.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Ivy lies, walking towards the kitchen like that had been her intention all along, “there is nothing to reciprocate.”

Ivy can feel Selina’s look on the back of her head. She’s not going to give her the satisfaction of turning around, of course. Selina Kyle’s ego is healthy enough as it is. But she can absolutely feel it. A look involving an arched eyebrow and narrowed eyes and possibly a smirk. Maybe the slightest purse of painted lips, if she’s going for judgmental rather than smug.

Selina is multi-faceted in her scorn.

“You have got to be shitting me, Ive,” Selina says, and Ivy still refuses to turn around, focusing instead on staring at the interior of her fridge and ignoring the fact that ninety percent of its contents are there for Harley’s all-day snacking needs.

She ends up grabbing a jug of water not because she’s thirsty, but simply because it’s the only thing in there she knows for a fact is there just for her.

“Seriously?” Selina prods, walking closer and crossing her arms over her chest as she watches Ivy methodically fill a glass of water like it’s a delicate operation that requires her undivided attention. “You’re such a fucking pussy. And I don’t mean that as a compliment.”

Ivy does turn around then, gripping the glass with perhaps a little more force than strictly necessary. In her defense, she’d much rather be gripping Selina’s neck instead.

“Once again, Selina,” she says with a slight shrug, taking a sip of cold water, “no idea what you’re talking about.”

Selina gapes at her. It’s kind of flattering, actually. It’s not every day something leaves Selina Kyle fully unable to speak. Maybe — Ivy thinks to herself, enjoying her water — she’ll never speak again. Maybe she’ll leave Gotham entirely. Wouldn’t that be just—

Ivy’s train of thought is completely derailed by something that is never a good sign: Selina Kyle is laughing.

Not chuckling. Not snickering. Not letting out one of those sarcastic giggles she likes to use to obliterate people’s entire self-esteem.

No. No, this is honest to goodness, full-on belly laughter, and it’s fucking terrifying.

“Wh— what the fuck, Selina?” Ivy asks, trying to sound less scared than she actually is. Selina’s sense of humor is not so much dark as it is downright fucked up, and if she’s finding something in this situation funny, it can only mean someone is about to get crushed, metaphorically or otherwise.

All signs point to Ivy.

“Look at you!” Selina points in the general direction of Ivy, like she’s about to rip her fashion sense to shreds. But this, sadly, has nothing to do with clothes. “Holy shit, you’re in so much deeper than I thought, this is fucking hilarious.”

Ivy takes one step back, until her hip bumps against the counter and she blindly feels around to leave the half-empty glass on it. To her credit, she still manages to try and infuse her voice with something resembling nonchalance one last time.

“You’re not making any sen—“

“Man, you’re in love, in love, huh?”

Ivy’s been shot before. So she feels like she’s not being overly dramatic when she says Selina’s words feel just like that. Like being shot right in the gut. And Ivy tries to be as stoic as she usually is when faced with things like gunshots and blunt force and bat-shaped ninja stars (holy fuck, he’s such a nerd), but she feels a bit like she’s been standing on a castle of cards for the last… however many years it’s been since she met Dr. Quinzel in Arkham, and Selina’s just figured out exactly where to blow to make it all come tumbling down.

“I mean I knew you two were into each other. Obviously,” Selina continues, and Ivy suddenly understands the exact meaning of all those expressions regarding cats and mice, “but I thought it was like… well, you know. Friends in need of a nudge towards the benefits. But this.”

Selina shakes her head, smile as wide as her eyes. She looks both surprised and delighted. Like she’s really just found out there are feelings involved in whatever lust-filled fever dream she’d interpreted as reality before now.

“And you’re the one who’s doing all the yearning. I totally thought she was the useless one. Holy shit.” Selina takes a couple steps in the direction of the window, like using a door like a normal person is simply not an option for her. “How long?”

Ivy opens her mouth, but Selina interrupts her before any sound can come out.

“Don’t answer that. I already know.” Selina waves her hand dismissively. “No wonder you’re fucking terrified. You’d be safer falling in love with an actual hyena.”

“I’m not—“

“Please.” Selina reaches the window and notices that little plant for the first time, giving it a little pat that could almost pass for affectionate if you didn’t know Selina Kyle. “So what’s scarier, Ive?” Selina almost purrs the question. “That she may not love you back, or that she probably does?”

Ivy tells herself she could murder Selina right then and there, with the help from the little plant. Hell, she could probably kill her without help from the plant.

But that wouldn’t really fix anything, right?

“Anyway!” Selina lets out a happy little sigh as she slinks out of the window and onto the fire escape outside. “No brunch, then. I’ll leave you to your brooding.” Her smile turns into a smirk then, eyes narrowed like she’s about to pounce on an unsuspecting mouse. “And don’t worry, Ive. I can keep a secret.”

Selina winks at her before she disappears.

Ivy refuses, pointedly, to think about her conversation with Selina.

She tries to go back to her introspection, but it turns out there’s no breathing in and out when your chest is full of feelings to the point of actual physical discomfort, so Ivy gives up on that, too.

She could plot. Scheme, if you will. It’s been a while since she’s gone for an actual multi-step plan to rid Gotham — and, later, the world — of parasitic CEOs profiting off nature. A bit of environmentally friendly murder never fails to put her in a good mood.

But it turns out it’s nearly impossible to come up with a solo plan without being constantly aware of the fact that going solo is no longer her default. A plan involving only herself doesn’t feel like just any random plan anymore. Now it feels like a plan without her, and that’s just— that’s just the opposite of what she needs to be thinking about right now.

So.

What’s an eco-terrorist to do when eco-terrorism is not an option?

Eight hours later she’s in her lab, hair haphazardly held in a bun with a pencil as she looks at her latest experiment through her microscope.

The little sprout from her windowsill sits right next to the microscope in a beaker serving as a makeshift flower pot while Ivy works.

“You know, if this works,” Ivy tells the sprout, eyes trained on the cell that should enter active mitosis any second now, “you’re going to be my sidekick when we take down the next big guy.”

If this works, and she can give this tiny plant the powers she hopes to give her, they can take over Gotham and the world as a team. Ivy’s always worked best with plants, anyway. Who needs—

“Red?”

Harley’s voice is uncharacteristically mellow, but it manages to startle Ivy anyway.

“Jesus, Harley,” Ivy doesn’t look away from the microscope, “what the fuck are you doing here?”

She’s not mad. Not at Harley, anyway. None of this is her fault. She’s just—

Listen. Figuring out exactly what to call what she’s feeling would require introspection, and we’re not doing that anymore.

“Oh. I uh—“ There’s something in Harley’s tone that twists uncomfortably in Ivy’s chest. “Wanted to talk?”

Ivy doesn’t want to talk. Talking, as it turns out, may be the very last thing she wants to do. But there’s that something in Harley’s voice. Something that sounds a bit like embarrassment. Like shame, even. Like maybe if Ivy were to listen in on Harley’s inner monologue right now the voice in there would sound suspiciously like him calling her a fuck-up and an idiot and—

“I’m sorry.” Ivy leaves the little plant’s cell to enter mitosis in its own time and turns to fully focus on Harley. “I didn’t mean to snap. You just startled me.”

Harley visibly relaxes. Ivy decides she hates him just that much more than she did ten seconds ago.

“Didn’t mean to startle ya,” Harley leaves her bat propped against the trunk of a giant nightshade and takes a few steps towards Ivy.

Normally, Harley has no concept of personal space. She sits on whatever surface is closest to Ivy, invading her space and making it impossible for her to fully focus on anything that’s not Harley. It should be annoying, but it isn’t, for reasons Ivy is absolutely not going to consider at this time.

This time, however, Harley hovers just a step or two away from Ivy and her microscope and her standing desk.

It feels…

It feels wrong.

“What did you want to talk about?” Ivy taps the desk and tries not to smile when Harley beams as she practically bounces to sit on it. Her legs dangle over the edge, well-worn combat boots lightly bumping against Ivy’s legs with each soft swing of Harley’s feet.

Nothing really feels wrong anymore.

“I’m sorry, Pammy.”

Ivy shakes her head. “It’s fine. You know you’re always welcome here, I just wasn’t expecting—“

“No,” Harley says, and when Ivy looks into her eyes she realizes Harley’s not going to let her pretend she has no idea what this is about, “I mean I’m sorry about the other night.”

Ivy stands up a little straighter. Takes half a step back, like that’s going to help. Crosses her arms over her chest.

“It’s fine.”

Harley tilts her head just so, bright blue eyes narrowing for a second, and Ivy sees a flash of Harleen right there staring back at her. Reading her fucking thoughts, almost. It’s unnerving.

“It’s fine, Harley,” Ivy insists, tone sharper as she takes another step back. She can hear the low rumble of every vine in her lab stirring along with her mood.

There’s a moment there, maybe a few seconds long, where they both simply stare at each other in silence. Like they’re trying to figure each other out in a way that feels completely foreign because she knows Harley, and Harley knows her, and there’s nothing to figure out. Nothing at all.

“You know—“ Harley’s voice sounds a bit brittle, like it may just break if it hits the wrong word, “you know I didn’t mean it, Pammy.”

Ivy nods. Once.

“I know.” She knows now and she knew when she first met Harley and she’s known for the last however many years it’s been. She fucking knows it’s love but it’s not love like that. She knows. “It’s fine.”

“You know Selina just got in my head, right?” Harley keeps talking, and on some level Ivy knows there’s nothing to be angry about because Harley just wants to explain. She just wants to make sure things aren’t weird between them because they’re best friends. But it feels almost cruel anyway. “You know I don’t—“

“I know you don’t love me, Harley, yes, for fuck’s sakes, I’m not an idiot.”

“But I—“

“Don’t.” Ivy holds one finger up. If she has to listen to Harley say she loves her, but just not in that way she may lose her fucking mind. “It’s fine.”

For a few blessed seconds, it feels like maybe Harley will let it go. Like maybe she’ll just drop it and let Ivy get out of this with some semblance of pride.

But that would just be too much to ask, wouldn’t it?

“I do love you, Ive, it’s just—“

“Holy shit, Harley!” Ivy raises her voice and hears the tell-tale creak of vines growing up the wall. “I know! I fucking know, all right? Selina is a dick and you thought margarita mix was a love potion and you’re not fucking in love with me, all right? I know!”

“But—“

“No! No fucking but!” Ivy swears she hears it. The little snap when she loses her last thread of control over what she’s saying and things spill out before she has a chance to filter them. “I don’t love you either, have you even considered that?”

Harley’s eyes widen in the purest expression of surprise Ivy’s ever seen in her life.

“Right!” There’s a part of Ivy that wants to stop. She wants to stop and backtrack and tell Harley she didn’t mean it because she can’t stand the thought of hurting her, and she needs her to know that of course — of course — Ivy loves her. But she just can’t right now. “I’m not secretly in love with you! All right? I’m glad you don’t love me. I’m fucking fine.”

Harley opens her mouth like she’s about to speak, but closes it without making a sound. She doesn’t look hurt, necessarily. She looks… she looks disarmed, almost. Like she doesn’t know how to react.

“I’ll just—“ Harley swallows and jumps off the desk. “We’re fine, so I’ll just leave. Yeah?”

Ivy nods. “Fine.”

“Cool. Yeah.” Harley sort of smiles, but not really. She moves a bit slower than usual as she goes back to her bat and walks towards the door, and there’s a part of Ivy that wants to stop her and fix this somehow — because it’s not fine at all — but self-preservation wins in the end.

“Remember to lock the door on your way out.”

For a second, Harley almost looks like she may say something. And for a second, Ivy almost hopes she will. But Harley just nods and walks out, and when she hears the lock snap into place, Ivy knows she’s all alone with her plants.

Right where she belongs.

bakoda and bakyada for the ask game?

i went with bakoda! mostly bc i'm not as confident in my characterization for kya yet lmao rip sorry

proposes: tbh? neither of them. but not on purpose bc they both wanted to, but sokka and katara managed to fake parent trap them before they could lol

shops for groceries: bato is faster at it while hakoda likes to spend a good 3hrs at the deli trying to decide on the best cuts lmao

kills the spiders: they both do, and easily!

comes home drunk at 3am: hakoda and bato just felt a shiver of fear go through them over remembering their past college antics at this question lmfao

remembers to feed the fish: both, though bato remembers more - and mostly bc he's the one who gets home from work first lol

initiates duets: hakoda may be the one with perfect pitch but he doesn't really sing unless prompted, so bato does just that <3

falls asleep first: hakoda, which is great bc bato finds a just-woken-up hakoda to be very adorable lol

plans spontaneous trips: they both do, at the same time, and they have learned to be careful uttering any ideas in front of tenzin bc he's not good at keeping secrets lmao

wakes the other up at 3am demanding pancakes: neither of them tbh lmao

sends the other unsolicited nudes: BATO which is unfair bc hakoda doesn't work in a place where he can just scurry off and send some back </3

brags about knowing karate even though they never made it past yellow belt: snorts bato and that's bc he learned a different form of fighting but never feels like wanting to explain it to ppl (hakoda, on the other hand, is willing to explain lol)

comes to a complete halt outside bakeries/candy shops: hmmmm neither? i think they both love stopping into coffee shops tho

blows sarcastic kisses after doing ridiculous shit: it's less sarcastic kisses and more shit-eating grins that gets them both in trouble lmfao

killed the guy (also, which hid the body): hm. Hm. they don't like talking about this one.

wears the least clothing around the house: BATO but only because he didn't raise kids so there was never a 'there are tiny people around i need to be wearing clothes' period with him lol

has icky sentimental moments for no apparent reason: hakoda :,) fuckin sap it's very gross to sokka and katara but bato really loves it so the kids will just have to suffer <3

#bakoda are the couple that end up wearing matching couples outfits on accident they've been together long enough lol #ask

Here's a lb of the When We All Vote special because I just needed to talk about it I guess?

I mean, it really is just me geeking out about the filmmaking and quoting my favorite lines but be my guest

-----------------------------------------------------

It's always amazing to me how Brad's voice haven't changed at all but he looks like a qtip, it's great.

OH WAIT THIS IS A READ THROUGH. THEY'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO READ THE SCRIPT THIS IS A DREAM COME TRUE. and smart too.

And it's great because Aaron's earlier scripts read exactly like a play, like, it's really is three lines of stage direction and then just... dialogue all the way down.

Oh God the staging and the direction is so solid damn you Tommy Schlamme. As far as a staging goes this is solid. I mean, the blocking is SO nice??!! And very theater-y! Going minimal was one hell of a good idea, specially considering the time frame. Ugh damn this is a smart production.

"I was thinking how much things change in sixty seconds"

Tell me about it.

The titles! Crying? No I'm not crying you're crying. THIS IS SO PRETTY! I love how they decided to put in moments of the making of, this is a THREAT

I’m gonna screencap the shit out of this episode and cycle the shots as desktop background, it’s decided.

The lines between the act breaks are actually pretty funny and I love the fact that both Eli and Aaron wrote these inserts, because Sorkin is hilarious but then Eli comes with the I Know What I’m Doing with the politics and the speeches are solid.

THE CUTS ARE SMOOTH IN WAYS THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE HOW THE FUCK MAN

OKAY I AM SORRY BUT I'M GONNA GO FULL GEEK OVER THE FILMMAKING HERE OKAY just skip to the next bolded line after this one if you don't wanna read about it.

LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW THIS SHOW WORKS (as far as craft is concerned):

You have a classic Hollywood filmmaking style for most of the time: smooth and invisible tracking shots in dollys (little carts that push and pull the camera over a track for smooth movement), beautiful close ups and focus racks (when you pull focus on something on the foreground then change it to the background, or vice versa, without cutting) to make use of your entire depth of field. That by itself ties nicely to Aaron's 40's-ish scripts: heavy plot and lots of fast talking require you to keep moving so things don't get boring, but it can’t be overwhelming because the writing is already like ok wow too much; the jokes need that precision in timing, too, it all needs to be like clockwork. And the atmosphere all of that creates is just right too: the precision and the damn fine acting you need to pull this kinda shit off are a testament to the very themes and setting of the show so *chefs kiss*

AND THEN ON TOP OF THIS YOU HAVE THE SMOOTH STEADY-CAM AND THOMAS SCHLAMME PROVES HE KNOWS WHAT HE’S DOING. because it's so good. The camera floats through the west wing as if it was a character itself, you’re dropped right in the middle of the action. the way the camera circles the characters puts you in their mindset: things are HAPPENING decisions needs to me made. it’s what’s next in visual form. and it pulls the show right into the 21st century, because it’s such a modern thing, such a technical achievement, to be able to stage and

THE THING IS, THIS IS A STAGE. THIS IS NOT A FULL SET, like they had back in the day. so the staging needs to make sense and the movements have to be thought out to match the next cut. they blocked the staged to allow for continuous long shots of the more complex sequences but some cuts here are still kinda tricky. this is by no means impressive by Hollywood standards but it’s still not really trivial? might be after you’ve spent 8 years filming like this, but all in all it’s not nothing.

I talked once about how it’s kinda funny that almost half of the shot/reverse shots (dialogues are usually shot like that: you have once person talking, then the other, and you usually shoot the entire convo one side then the other, and then cut them in together so it makes sense. it’s p much the first thing you learn if you go to film school) are out of focus, and about how it’s prob because the schedule must’ve been insane. but I say this out of sheer respect. you naturally spend more time and effort on set pieces and difficult shots but half of this fucking show is a set piece.

I mean IT’S SO SIMPLE. BUT IT’S SO GOOD. There’s nothing extraordinary going on but it’s so beautiful and so well done and I'm constantly blown away by how much this show does with what ends up being just basic filmmaking.

it really all just comes down to great scripts, great acting, and a handful of techniques to bring it all together. and in this day and age when everything became a desperate and artificial attempt to make the audience respond, that is impressive.

ok I’M SO SO SORRY. end of me geeking out about filmmaking

"DONNA!"

My first reaction to this one single line was omg- I missed this so much. and I’m actually rewatching the whole thing it’s been 0 days since I've heard josh screaming at donna. I can only imagine what it was like for them.

I just don't have words anymore to talk about how much I love this show.

God fucking damnit THE ACTING.

JANEL'S ACTING. THE TINY REACTIONS.

On stage you don't have the realism, you don't have anything to help you believe it so it's SO MUCH CLEARER how GOOD these guys are.

Okay I understand if everyone ends up pissed because this is not at all new material, etc etc, but I GOTTA SAY I AM THROUGHLY ENJOYNG THIS THING. Sorkin writing is made for stage and having the chance to see these guys actually doing it on stage is a blessing if you ask me.

You just know this exchange is gonna become gifs that people will subtitle with whatever else line of dialogue they want and I can't wait for it.

I really want to to back to the episode later and compare the acting (which is kind of a dick move but I'm inconsequential to them they'll never know), because Janel is fucking NAILING young Donna after all this time and this is just insane.

"Give it up, tiny"

that's a bold line when it comes to Allison Janney

"I moved my pawn..."

"Well, it's as popular today as it was back then."

Please please please please tell me the bit about the stuffed animal is true. Please. it’s probably not but I don’t care it’s in my head and it’s not gonna go away

"I think if my dog could pull that off his vote should count."

Oh my God.

"Did Aaron write this?"

Oh my God.

I'm-

"You're a sap?"

"It's called poetry, me bucko."

Can you tell that at some point I stopped thinking and just got really into the show?

"He's not gonna-- that's the other guys! He's not gonna gonna privatize social security. he'll privatize New Hampshire before he privatizes social security."

I remember that this line made me actually stop the episode to laugh back when I first watched it and guess what yep I did it again

UGH.

I really love how this episode ends. I really love the feeling of how Bartlett is pretty much teaching Sam how play the game on a higher level, I love the feeling of ‘oh okay this guys is GOOD we get’. I think a month ago in one of those interviews they were doing to promo the thing Sorkin said people respond to the sigh and sound of competence and he’s absolutely right.

oh, and that ending right there was an definitely an "I have no idea what to do about that" solution, but it wasn't a bad one? it clashes, but it’s not bad at all.

I LIKED IT. I really really really liked it. This was really fun and the only bad part is that we're gonna gonna get to see them just doing everything else too. Like, it ended and i was half expecting to see he next episode but it wasn't there and that was the one disappointment tbh

December Goals Update

Time to round up the stuff I got done! This one is a big update, despite both accomplishments and this january’s goals being quite straightforward this time. ^-^)/

I already know - I ended up focusing on one very specific goal, and made significant progress JUST in that. And... if I do what I am PLANNING for January... then hopefully I’ll make more progress. But lol, we’ll see. We know how much I suck at sticking to my plans >o>

Things accomplished:

Chinese novel chapters read in December: 20 (Tian Ya Ke - 19, aka read about 24% of the novel this past month! This was the big goal I ended up focusing on - I want to finish reading through my first full novel this year! I did a majority of those chapters in the last 2 weeks, so if I get motivated again, I might really reach this goal. We’ll see. I REALLY do want to break the milestone of getting through one complete novel soon, and it being a priest one would be icing on the cake. Reading method - intensively, using Pleco Reader, looking up all unknown words. I picked up a significant amount of words so far, but it’s still a big challenge lol).

Chapters I studied with Listening-Reading Method: 8 (Most of these were Tian Ya Ke, and dmbj 2. I ended up getting really into reading though, and skipping this step later on as it slowed down my reading time. This January, I would like to do l-r method MORE, because I’ve finally got Guardian all prepped to do that novel with it. I’d love to do l-r method all the way through the novel guardian... I hope I manage it... avenuex did a beautiful audiobook for it, and I’d love to work through it. The only demotivating factor? l-r method takes a big time dedication - 5-10 minutes to read a chapter in english, 20 minutes to listen to the chapter while looking at the english text, 20 minutes to listen to the chapter while looking at the chinese text... so around 50 minutes to do a single chapter. And guardian has 106+ chapters ToT. That said, imagine how improved my listening skills would be after roughly 88* hours of listening to chinese I can mostly comprehend? Considering just a handful hours of l-r method has already bumped my listening skills up noticeably to me. In addition to Guardian, I would very much like to do l-r method with Silent Reading as an excuse to re-read the novel and listen to the audiobook - which is around 66 free chapters available at least. I figure l-r method with priest novels, in combo with reading priest novels like Tian Ya Ke, will help with picking up vocabulary in reading and listening a bit. Plus, I plan to do l-r method in the order: listen to english, then listen to chinese, which tends to help me pick up more reading comprehension better than the reverse order.)

Chinese audio listened to: 14 (a surprisingly large number? I don’t remember doing this much lol? I think some of this is me listening to dmbj audios, and some was other chinese things, and a tiny bit was restarting the spoonful chinese audio. Again, I think listening more has been helping out a lot)

shows watched in only chinese: roughly 2 (I watched a bit of a few eps of border town prodigal, some tlt3 raws, some short vids, half of anti fraud league ep 1, half of some spy show, basically i was not in a focused mood lol)

Personal goals met:

finally got my stomach to stop hurting! i guess it wanted less carbs. also debloated 10 lbs so i guess its happier lol. still not sure what else it wants from me.

started writing a personal story, period piece with pirates and bisexual messes and i’m quite excited tbh. So now this story, and Nanase, are active original wips

handled doctor stuff wooh!

read more of my cpstd book and made more comprehensive plans on what to do when i get emotional flashbacks - and i think the prep work has been really helpful so far, i’m hopeful my lowered stress now is a part of that lol

formatted 2 books! WOOH! in process of formatting 2 more, and learning how the fuck to do a parallel text - anyone know how??? I’m having a nightmare, I’d love to do left page english right page chinese, but all I’m finding are how to use columns to do dual texts beside each other on the same page. Which is much more cramped to read... but I suppose I can live with it if it’s the only option I have.

Goals for January will be pretty straightforward to be honest. I am in a very reading-focused mood. (I mean we’ll see how long that lasts, ToT since my attention jumps randomly, but I’ve got everything Prepped to lean heavy into reading for my studying for the foreseeable future). I plan to focus on reading as my main study method, to cover listening and reading and picking up vocabulary/hanzi. Optionally, I might listen to chinese audio in the background to further help with listening/vocabulary (like Chinese Spoonfed Audio, or audiobooks), or I might watch a show in chinese (whether I do this completely depends on if I feel like it).

Later on in the year, if reading is getting easier - then long term, I think I’ll want to go back to Alan Hoenig’s Chinese Characters book and read through it for a solid foundation to fill in gaps, read my chinese grammar books for same reason, use my pronunciation app... and then dive into both language exchange apps and tutors more firmly for actual writing and speaking and interacting with others. Basically, long term, I’d like to work on filling in my gaps and correcting any mistakes I haven’t figured out, then work on production more which will be significantly weaker skills by then. But in the immediate, I want to just focus on what I enjoy - reading - and use it to pick up as many words as possible.

Goals for January:

Continue reading Tian Ya Ke. Work on reading through my first complete novel in chinese. Continue counting chapters read, as I might look at a few novels - but sincerely, I WANT to focus on one book so Tian Ya Ke is the GOAL. I will be quite happy if I can get the book to 50% read by the end of this month, but we’ll see... and quite honestly I’ll be floored if I get to 100% within the month - but if it gets easier as I pick up more words, anything’s possible. Ideally, I would like to l-r method a few chapters. I do think it speeds up my reading speed because it makes me keep up with the narration, and it also helps me cement new words into my memory better. I remember words better when I hear them. However like - chapters tend to take me 40 minutes to read, and l-r method takes usually 15-20 minutes because of how dense priest’s chapters are. So... l-r method chapters take 1 hour a piece... if I get into a reading mood, I’ll ultimately probably just primarily focus on the reading.

Secondary goal, not as important, I will start this if desired but it might wait until February+. Listen-Read Method Guardian, until I’ve gotten through the entire novel. I finally have all the translations gathered up, I’ve got my chinese copy of the novel, and avenuex’s audiobook. I have everything ready to simply start. However, as mentioned, this is a time heavy activity. I do think it will be very helpful for improving my listening skills, and to a degree also - helping retain my reading skills, push my reading speed up a little, and maybe help me pick up some new words. I think it will be a very compatible activity with goal 1, or a nice follow up activity to goal 1. Also it is the DREAM, as that novel is what pushed me to start learning chinese initially... so I am very excited to read through it. Ideally, I start this activity AFTER Tian Ya Ke, and I do a full readthrough of the chapters like: read in english, audio with english, audio with chinese, read intensively in chinese. Basically, I would love to include a full intensive read through of Zhen Hun at the same time I’m l-r method’ing it. However that will be Even more time sapping, so that’s not necessarily gonna happen unless my reading speed for priest novels is a little better after Tian Ya Ke. I need to get through the chapters read in chinese in closer to 20 minutes instead of the current 40 minutes it takes me.

Optional. Listen to chinese when I can - in the background like Chinese Spoonfed, audio books, audio dramas, and by watching shows in only chinese. If I have time, and I feel like doing these, I will. It’s easy to add doing this to my day, so when I remember to do them, they’re helpful.

Main Goal for January - continue reading Tian Ya Ke. <3

Once that’s completed, next main goal - Listen-Read Method with Guardian.

See? Really extremely straightforward goal for January. Simply keep reading! I think the more I read, the easier it will get, the faster it will get, and the quicker I’ll be able to get through a LOT of the novels I want to check out. So... I have to start doing it, if I intend to get better.

Unrelated notes:

I’ve gotten really into Drakengard 3 lately. Which by extension, means really into Nier Automata again, Nier (Nier Replicant remaster is releasing and I am getting the version with the scriptbooks and am intensely excited), and Drakengard. Yoko Taro’s wild concepts and fascinating characterizations and way of telling stories has sucked me in again. And I am reminded how very much eventually learning to read Japanese IS still a long term goal of mine. I’m back to playing like 3 games right now I could so easily be practicing my japanese with... if I remembered any japanese ToT. It’s like at the edges of my brain... I remember the hiragana and katakana after a minute or two... the kanji I’ve completely forgotten, but since I know a lot of the meanings from chinese now, I can often parse out the meaning of sentences in manga I’ve got... I can’t remember the particles off the top of my head or when I listen, but when I read their meaning clicks again fast... I know that when I go back, its just a matter of a crash course and then diving in again. And wow am I eager. But I know myself, and japanese is gonna take a WHILE. And chinese is currently taking a LOT of dedication, I don’t even really have time to work on my french reading lol. So I would really prefer to get at least another year in chinese before even trying to start studying japanese again. (And realistically 2-3 more years of chinese, because I genuinely think a solid basis in speaking skills/basic listening skills, and generally Competent webnovel reading skills I want before I stop actively studying chinese... because by that time I’ll want to keep reading/listening to chinese for pleasure, chatting when needed, and if I stop studying before that point I know I personally will just end up needing to relearn some big chunks. I also think if I try to go back to japanese before that point, I will have major issues confusing the two when reading. My japanese was upper-beginner when I quit, and when I started chinese I sped past that point in chinese to the point pretty quickly chinese blocked out what japanese i knew and it made japanese reading easier but only to a point. My chinese I’d put at ‘beginner’ still?? But compared to my japanese its significantly farther - in chinese I can currently read manhua without a dictionary and get enough to translate most of it myself, and read simpler novels and get most of it, and read more complex novels and get the gist main idea even if its a slog.

With japanese? Ahahahahahah! I was able to read the very simplest of manga and only get the very bare main idea gist, could NOT even comprehend any novel, and could play a video game on MEMORY of what i knew the context was, only picking out quite basic words. However, even though my chinese has gotten a fair bit further... I want it even further before I stop actively studying it so much. I want it to the point its where my french reading level was at about 2.5 years into french (or honestly, a bit Better than my french was tbh). I want my chinese to be to the point, where I recognize enough hanzi that I can guess the meaning of some new words, that I can look up most new words with with pinyin because i at Least know the pinyin for most hanzi i see, and where in most not-too-difficult webnovels i read, I know enough of the words, that i can comfortably follow the gist of the main plot without too much strain even if i miss details. so at that point, I’ll still likely want to build up my vocabulary more - so that i can learn to translate, and so that i can pick up details easier, and read faster. But I’ll at least be at a point where i can easily maintain the skills i have and improve them a bit naturally by just continuing to read. I mean... realistically even, I should try to keep studying chinese a lot at that point... I really, really want to be able to read chinese novels. But that’s probably the minimum at which I’d feel quite comfortable focusing on another language intensively.

With japanese, I already have a study plan too! A study plan I know works for me! It’ll be so simple! Parts 1-4 would be structured study, parts marked + would be options to move onto, and parts marked * would be activities that could be done concurrently.

The japanese study plan, whatever year I finally can get to it:

Listen to Japanese Audio Lessons (japaneseaudiolessons.com). I did this before, and it helped my listening comprehension/vocabulary pick up so much.

Read Learn to Read in Japanese Vol I, II, III (by the same people). I loved these books back when I started them, the best mnemonics that I’d found for myself to pick up the kanji - easiest way for me to pick them up without brute forcing it.

(concurrently with above) go through Nukemarines LLJ memrise decks. Literally, just CRAM through those. I did that at the 2+ year mark for japanese, and that was REALLY when I was finally able to start reading and trying video games, so it clearly was what worked for me.

Read my book Read Japanese. Haven’t tried this yet, but it looks like a good place to progress, This would be done after step 1+2, either concurrently with Nukemarine or after Nukemarine depending on how much is done. Just cram Through this book since it’s got a lot of basics in the beginning. Its in the same structure as my DeFrancis Chinese Readers and very well suited to my learning style.

Read my Tuttle Read Japanese book. More difficult, goes into like 2000 kanji, a ton of vocab, and most people who read this said afterward reading regular japanese material was quite doable.

+If my Nukemarine deck is completed - move onto one of my japanese decks with more words, or Clozemaster Japanese sentences.

+If my japanese audio lessons are completed - move onto one of my other japanese audio collections like the japanese pimsleur that was condensed, or that website with a ton of condensed audio of episodes (https://www.paliss.com/). Or youtube channels like Game Gengo (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLT12i1gB38HG1olutL08nID8gaGWHZS4v).

+at the point Nukemarine’s deck is done, Listening-Reading method with japanese novels is an option.

+at the point I’m done with all Read Japanese books, may read through some other japanese textbooks I have, starting with: Japanese Particles and Common Sentence Structures, Kodansha Kanji Learner’s Guide.

*Find a japanese reader equivalent to Pleco (check subreddit r/learnjapanese, r/refold, r/massimmersionapproach). Start reading whatever japanese novels I want. Which knowing me, will probably be light novels, maybe some visual novels, and video game related materials. *Ideally this step would be done last, but knowing me, it’ll be done whenever i feel like starting - could be attempted as early as midway through the Nukemarine decks.

*Listen to japanese - so many options here, realistically it would be me playing video games in japanese, watching jdramas, watching/listening to spinoff material of stories I like like the YorHa stage plays etc. Can be attempted as early as midway through Nukemarine decks.

*reading manga could be anywhere in this list, although I don’t do it much anymore. But I was just getting to being able to try this last time I was studying japanese, so I could start up again whenever. Only negative, I would say, is I think my improvement suffered back then because I was too scared to try reading actual novels. So novels are prioritized as reading material. It would be nice to help translate some mangas though - so there’s an option.

*maybe try translating some japanese things i have interest in, at a late point.

I think maybe, the biggest thing studying chinese has taught me about how i learn languages, is that I improve faster when challenged. I learn better when challenged. I tried to read Chinese novels from the first few months (not well, but i tried lol), I watched chinese dramas from day one, and I tried to watch chinese shows only in chinese from month 5 onward. From month 5 onward I started trying to talk/write with people (knowing maybe 400 words at first, quickly bumping up to 1000 words in a month cause of just needing it, so it definitely helped me). And when I started listening to audio more, my listening skill noticeably improved within a few months. As a result, my chinese in a little over a year is taking much less time to improve then I projected it was going to (I figured the progress I’ve made so far, was going to take 3-4 years). Whereas with japanese, I didn’t try to start reading or playing video games or listening a lot until 2 years into studying... and I also didn’t make any noticeable improvement until then. So going into any language study moving forward, I’ll do more to challenge myself earlier. Since clearly its helpful to me.

#december progress #december goals #japanese #japanese study plan #study plan #u can really tell japanese has been on my mind lately lol #chinese study plan #to be honest though i feel really happy with my chinese right now #i have been working for a YEAR to get to this point in chinese #to where i can primarily make my studying be reading. and i'm definitely here.#i can just keep reading and listening for a few months for chinese. i dont really need to work on varying it anymore #since my vocab foundation is decent now.#in a while like i said - long term - i'd like to do a readthrough of my textbooks #to catch onto errors i make and to iron out any points i still am not clear on #and really HAMMER in knowledge of basics #and then i want to focus a lot of my study on producing the language/communicating #i am hoping by that point my reading skills will be fast enough i'll be able to just read for pleasure #in some down time. and listen to audio dramas in downtime. to retain #what gains i've made there.#but production i'm happy to put off for a while so this plan seems good to me.

dating au | k.yeosang

⤗ check my masterlist for other members!

how he acts around you

cold as fuk

even antarctica’s shaking

like he’ll just avoid you like you have the plague or something

which is weird because he’d be fine with you when he still hadn’t developed feelings

albeit awkward, but still okay

so when he suddenly starts avoiding you, you just accept the fact that he didn’t like you after spending some time with you

which is a shame because you really liked him

initially you try to find out why he’s avoiding you

and you ask all the members

“uH.... it’s nothing really he’s just really shy!!! he DEFINITELY likes you.”

was their response all the time

but it was just hard to believe that he liked you after seeing him avoid you as such

like he’d be sitting on the couch

and you sit on the oTHER end of the couch

and he’d still get up and leave the room

that’s because he’s scared you’ll see his face turn red

the first few times you just pretend you don’t notice it

but it gets difficult after a while

because you’re still a babie with feelings

(;﹏;)

so then you start avoiding him too

and this doesn’t go unnoticed by the members

especially wooyoung, who knows about yeosang’s crush on you

he comes up to you one day, pulling you aside saying that he had something important to talk to you about

“yeosang likes you.”

...... say whaaaat

you’d have never guessed it tbh

even if you were the most alert person, with how much yeosang had been avoiding you, you would have zero clue

“w-what? there’s no way, he keeps avoiding me!”

cue wooyoung’s eye roll at his best friend’s dumb shyness

“he doesn’t hate you, he just avoids you because he’s scared he’s gonna make a fool out of himself in front of you. just do something about it please.”

you’re skeptical at this piece of information

but wooyoung was your close friend as well and he’d never play a prank this bad

so you decide to get to work

how he confesses

continuing from my above point, there’s no way he’s confessing first to you

so you’ll have to do all the work for this one

you walk into the dorm, immediately spotting yeosang sitting on the couch and watching tv

the moment he sets his eyes on you, he reaches for the remote and switches off the tv, getting up to move to his room

but before he can move anymore, you take a deep breath and speak up

“yeosang, can we talk?”

and he just freezes on the spot

because it’s been a while since you directly addressed him

and ngl he really missed it

although it was his fault for avoiding you in the first place

slowly looks at you with wide eyes, them following you as you walk over to the couch and take a seat on one end

after a few seconds, he slowly moves to the other end of the couch

sitting in a position such that his body was facing away from you

his heartbeat was skyrocketing, thinking of all the possible things you were going to say

but he definitely didn’t expect the words that left your mouth

“i like you.”

whips around the moment those words leave your mouth

stares at you like

(゜ロ゜)

noting his silence, you continue your sentence, being cut off by a soft tiny “y-you like me?” coming from the boy seated across you

you nod slowly, playing with your fingers as you watch his face, waiting for a reaction

and just like that, you see his cold facade melt away, his little teeth showing itself, happiness seeping into his expression

seeing his expression makes you let out a breath you didn’t know you were holding

feeling bad that you had to confess first because of his shyness, he slowly moves closer to you on the couch

it takes a whole minute for him to be seated next to you

and another whole minute for him to gather the courage to take your hand into his

you almost want to pull away, because your hands were sweaty from all the nerves

but he just holds onto your hands tightly, looking at you dearly

asks you out then and there, as an apology for avoiding you for way too long

first date

is there truly any other first date with this boy

will bring you to his favourite dessert place

if you weren’t a fan of chocolate, he’d bring you to a generic dessert place so that there was a greater variety for the both of you to choose from

but if you loved chocolate as much as he did

oh boy

be ready for a trip to a chocolate buffet

he’ll spend so much time searching for the best place to bring you

because he wants everything to be top class

when he finds the place he wants to bring you, he gives you vague details, such as what to wear and what time he’ll be coming to pick you up

as promised, he’ll arrive at your place with a bouquet of your favourite flowers

if you were allergic to pollen, he’ll bring you something in replacement of flowers

basically just makes sure to bring you something when he comes

on your way to the place, he talks excitedly about how he had found the perfect place to go with you

and you’d just listen and watch him with a smile because

how does one manage to be so fricking cute

when you finally reach the place, he quietly looks at you, wanting to know if he brought you to the right place

knows he did SOMETHING right when he sees your eyes light up in excitement and your smile making an appearance

you both go crazy at the restaurant

spending the time talking about all the things you missed out and rotting your teeth together

you both probably regret eating so many sweet things

but still would not trade it for anything else

because chocolate and the person you like with you?

best combination ever

first kiss

will probably take another century to happen

you might be together, but that doesn’t mean he still ain’t shy

might honestly take a few months before it happens

not that he doesn’t want to

but he just doesn’t want to screw up

because first kisses are one of the most memorable things in a relationship

and he’s just a sap like that

just wants the best for you for everything

if you’re not the patient type, you’ll probably end up going in for the kiss before him

and he’d respond immediately if you do it

almost like he had been waiting for it

he has

but if you had the patience of a saint and preferred to wait for him to do it

he’ll finally make his mind up to do it

but lady luck hates him

gets the timing wrong every. single. time

(-д-；) why even

after many failed attempts, he’d give up trying to capture the surprise element

and just announce that he wanted to kiss you

you’re halfway through a movie in the dorm, sitting side by side

and you’re really engrossed in it

but the boy beside you had 120% of his concentration on you

and thinks of nice ways to tell you that he really wants to kiss you

but just blurts it out in the end

“i want to kiss you.”

and you just stare at him blankly

trying to process what he had just said

he takes your silence as rejection and starts stuttering apologies

but you take his hand, making him shut up

“go ahead.”

and he does—finally kisses you, and maybe it was worth the wait uwu

the first few pecks are shy, but as time goes, he gains more confidence and it shows in his kisses

first fight

i see it developing because of his hesitation to open up and his shyness

he knows the main foundation of a relationship is communication

but he really hates confrontation

so will always keep it to himself if he’s upset about something that you had done

and you wouldn’t realise as well because he doesn’t say anything

so these things just build up in him and one day when he sees you hanging out with one of your guy friends

and your guy friend seems a little too close for his liking

he’ll spill out all his frustrations to you in one go

and although all he wanted to do was let you know what he was unhappy about

the fact that he had listed down everything that upset him

made it seem like he was picking on every single thing you had done

and so it blows out of proportion

you’d make known to him that it wasn’t fair for him to bombard you with everything at one go when communication was the key to a good relationship

which makes him realise his mistake

you walk away before the fight becomes worse, with him chasing after you immediately, apologies spilling from his mouth

and even if you decide to forgive him right away, he’d still go out of his way to buy you your favourite chocolate, with the promise that he’d try his best to start opening up to you from then onwards because he really didn’t want to lose one of the best things that had happened to him

favourite things to do together

loves to go to the park with you

one hand gripping yours and the other holding onto his skateboard and drones

will always insist that he wants to teach you how to skateboard

even if you couldn’t get it no matter how many times you tried

shows off his skills on the skateboard and then bugs you to try

but his main intention isn’t to make sure you’re learning to skateboard

oh no

this sneaky boy just wants an excuse to hold you because holding you without an excuse is too embarrassing for him at the initial stages of your relationship

somehow gets a thrill from getting to hold you so close to him in the pretence of teaching you how to skateboard

once he’s done laughing at all the times you fall on your ass while trying to skateboard, he’d set his drone up and fly it around the park

lets you fly his drone around, but slowly takes the controller away from you when you crash his drone into a tree for the third time

he loves you, but he loves his drones too

attaches a small camera to his drone and take aesthetic photos of the two of you from high up in the sky

definitely sets one of them as his wallpaper

gets teased indefinitely by the members, but he just tells them to shut up with red cheeks

general affection

it’s always the quiet, shy ones who are wild

ahem

┴┬┴┤( ͡° ͜ʖ├┬┴┬

anyways

loves to kiss you

you have no idea

okay maybe you have an idea buT when i say he loves to kiss you, i mean he loves to kiss you

nEVER does it in front fo the members

the most he’d do is cuddle up against you maybe, and lay his head on your shoulder

but his lips are nowhere near you when the members are around

without them though........

you have a really hard time getting away from him

when he’s comfortable enough, you can see the dominant side of him coming out

not tHAT dom but just in the sense that he likes to take charge of things

only when he’s really comfortable though

i’ve emphasised the comfortable part enough hhhh

loves lazy make outs

will take his time kissing you and it annoys the shit out of you sometimes

and he /knows/ that it annoys you

but does it on purpose

if you want the kiss to lead to something more, he’d want you to take the first step

wants to make sure you’re 100% comfortable with whatever he does

puts you first for everything

but if you’ve already crossed that milestone, will definitely be more experimental

loves to cuddle with you while facing each other

legs tangled up and all

doesn’t talk much during cuddle sessions—he just uses that time to admire you, top to bottom

his hands wiLL explore you during your cuddle sessions, but in a very innocent way

it’s almost like you are something he has never seen before and he’s just a curious child that wants to find out everything about you

in the mornings where he wakes up before you, will leave kisses all over your face as your wake up call

and tbh you’re awake for most of the part but you don’t wanna tell him because who wouldn’t like kisses from your handsome boyfriend

and he too knows that you’re awake

but he loves kissing you as much as you love being kissed by him

can you tell i’m rly affected by the wake up call video ateez posted ;;

will call you by your name most of the time, but he’d reserve the nicknames for special occasions

ie. when he wants something

the type to call you really cheesy things when he wants something

like ‘sweet babycakes’ or something like that

and doesn’t stop till you give him what he wants

you can’t stand the idiotic names he calls you, so you’ll just do whatever he wants

it can range from getting him something from another room

to making out with him when he’s feeling a little extra unloved

whatever it is, you’ll probably do it so that your ears don’t bleed

and therefore he always emerges victorious

Headcanon dating meme Sweetbrooke

this is under the cut because it’s long lmao! thank you for asking!!!!

where they first met and how: they technically met at the drive in, when brooke was in line to get snacks. but they don’t officially meet until a few months later when the serpents show up to kick archie’s ass.

how long their ‘flirting’ phase was before feelings got involved: so their flirting phase was tightly entwined to their hooking up phase, which lasted a few (?) months before feelings really started bubbling to the surface.

who fell for who first (if applicable): this is a bit even, but probably brooke a tiny bit more.

where their first date was and what it was like: they went to go see a movie and then got milkshakes at pops. it was super sweet, but a little awkward at first because i maintain that sweet pea never had a legit relationship before her but they were able to get comfy quick because it’s like,,,you two have been hooking up for months, chill.

who asks who out and how (with a sign? spelled out on a cake? just a simple ‘will you go out with me’?): it’s a very simple variation of asking will you go out with me. they both sort of broach the topic together and it’s more of a mutual asking.

who proposes first: if marriage ever does get brought up, probably sweet pea.

if they keep / kept their relationship secret or let everyone know right away: when they’re hooking up, it’s definitely on the down low (like i think at first only fangs really knows) because it’s during season 2 when tensions after the school merger is still high, so they’re not trying to deal with drama. once they’re actually dating, they don’t really care and it’s just sorta common knowledge that they’re together.

where the proposal happens and how (kiss cam at a baseball game? on a hillside surrounded by ducks? at a disney park?): no ideas for this one, but it’d probably be something super simple.

if they adopt any pets together: nope!

who’s more dominant: sweet pea

where their first kiss was and what it was like: it was in her room when they were supposed to be working on an assignment they got partnered up for and it’s very out of the blue and a lil aggressive tbh.

if they have any matching couples stuff (mugs? sweaters? pillowcases?): no, they both think that sort of thing is kinda tacky.

how into pda they are: brooke loves pda like she honestly can’t help it she loves it all. sweet pea is a bit less intense than she is with that aspect, so with him it’s usually like an arm tossed over her shoulder.

who holds the umbrella when it rains: sweet pea but honestly it’s because he’s taller.

where their usual ‘date spot’ is (if applicable): either pop’s or lovers lane.

who’s more protective: both, but sweet pea is just a tiny bit more.

how long it is before they sleep together (can be as in ‘had sex’ or as in ‘shared a bed’): honestly not long at all for either, probably early season 3 whoops.

if they argue about anything: they don’t argue super often, but when they do, it’s usually related to serpent type stuff.

who leaves more marks (lipstick, hickeys, scratchmarks etc.): they’re both liable to leave an odd hickey every once in a while.

who steals whose clothes and how often: once they get comfortable in their relationship, brooke is constantly stealing his shirts to wear to bed.

how they cuddle (spooning? facing each other?): usually spooning, but on occasion they’ll face each other.

what their favourite nonsexual activity is: going for drives on his bike.

how long they stay mad at each other: they’re both a little hotheaded and neither like to yield or admit they’re wrong at first, so they definitely need time apart after an argument and i think the record is like ... almost a week? maybe a tad less?

what their usual coffee / tea orders are: brooke will only drink coffee if there’s a shit ton of cream and sugar in it. sweet pea probably doesn’t do any kind of creamer or milk, but he definitely adds a fair amount of sugar.

if they ever have any children together: they might eventually have kids, but it’d probably be like two at most.

if they have any special pet names for each other: he calls her princess which technically he started doing to piss her off, but once they’re dating it’s just a soft little thing he does. she tends to mostly call him sweets or baby.

if they ever split up and / or get back together: so they split up after graduation, somewhere during the summer before she heads off to college. they will be getting back together at some point during this time jump, but it all really depends on what kind of bullshit plot i’m given to work with.

what their shared living space is like (messy? clean? what kind of decor?): she spends a good portion of season 3 in his trailer and it’s not super messy or anything but you can tell there’s two unsupervised teenagers living there.

what their first christmas / hanukkah / etc as a couple was like: they spend it with fangs' family because his mother insists that they can’t be alone on christmas.

what their names are in each other’s phones: she has him down as sweets with a couple of heart eye emojis. he’ll tell people she’s just brooke in his phone (which was an upgrade from being ‘holliday’ when they first exchanged numbers), but she’s definitely listed as princess because he’s a secret sap.

if they have any ‘couple traditions’ (buying a new mug for their collection every year? baking every friday evening?): nope!

who falls asleep first and who wakes up first: brooke falls asleep first and he usually wakes up first because she is not a morning person whatsoever.

who’s the big spoon / little spoon: brooke is usually little spoon because sweet pea claims he’s too manly to be little spoon, but there are numerous occasions where he is.

who hogs the bathroom: brooke

who kills the spiders / takes them outside: brooke doesn’t do spiders at all, she leaves that to him
