Can I get Baizhu, Venti, Scara, Ei, and Tenko Chabashira with a gf who's deathly terrified of storms/thunder and lightning? Like, every t8me she sees/hears it, her breath audibly hitches but she tries to pretend it's fine? I think I'm not ok, bestie 😭
# . storms 𓂃 ♥︎
𝜗𝜚 ┈ baizhu, venti, scara, ei, tenko x reader (seperate) ! 。
notes: dude im the exact same way, thunder is litrally so scary it makes me cry everytime lasjfsf
headcanons ノ fluffノfem! reader ノcanon universe
second person pov !! please enjoy! ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶
Tumblr media
-- ♡ --
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
baizhu
he's immediately taking you to the kitchen, making a calming tea as you're wrapped up in a little blanket
changsheng is waiting there with you, gently licking the tears off your cheeks, slithering on your shoulders in a way that tells you everything is ok
he'll take you to the living room after, making sure everything is well-light as he gently soothes you while you drink your tea
he's brushing your hair out of your face, telling you it's ok as he squeezes you tight, ensuring that you're safe and as close as possible
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
venti
he doesn't really realize what's wrong at first, only waking up once he realizes you're out of bed
he finds you down in the cellar, huddled up by wine barrels in a little blanket. you're shaking and crying and his heart just can't take it
venti will sit with you, nuzzling close as he whispers sweet nothings in your ear. he'll even pull out the lyre if you want him to, singing soft songs to get you to relax
the two of you will be found sound asleep long after the storm is over, snuggled up together. at long last, you're calm and restful
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
scara
scara gets it. he's terrified of the sound of thunder too. it reminds him of his mother; of every single thing he's gone through. he hates it; he hates how it reminds him of his past behavior, of who he once was..
the two of you are stuck in bed, clinging together, whimpering at every strike of lightning and clap of thunder. you're on the verge of tears, and so is he
he's practically gripping at your waist while you tug at his hair, the two of you ensuring that you stay together
eventually, you two finally talk things out, fighting through tears. after a long, anxious conversation about the weather, you're both able to fall back asleep
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
raiden ei
if it's thundering, she's probably upset about something. does that add another layer of fear? i don't know, you tell me
obviously, she's upset about something. something big. but once she sees that look on your face...the tears streaming down your face, the shaky hands, the way your lip trembles ever so slightly...oh, she just can't take it
the weather clears up almost immediately as she rushes to your side, hugging you tightly as her fingers card through your hair. she's fussing over you as though you've just been terribly injured
even when you're not scared anymore, she's still clinging to your side the rest of the night, even (attempting) to make dinner as an apology. it's not edible, but...it's the thought that counts?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
tenko
when she sees you crying, she is immediately trying to pick a fight with whoever made you upset (yes, even if it is the sky)
upon realizing it's just the thunder and lightning outside, she quickly pulls you into bed, holding you close and rocking you gently
she's not very good at comforting people, and being so close to a girl (even if she is her girlfriend) makes her just oh-so nervous. but she's more than happy to be your knight in shining armor, protecting you from the scary storm outside
she'll yelp a bit at particularly loud strikes of thunder, but will immediately giggle after, both because of her own silliness and to make you feel a little better about being scared

Chuuya x male reader !!
Tumblr media
just like i said i’d do :)
took a bit of time tho �� (i almost forgot. almost.)
if he didn’t already realize he liked guys he’d be extra flustered once he does
not ashamed
he just doesn’t know how to act around you
like he knows not to treat you terrible like dazai
but you may not be into feminine things
wait this is low key so much easier
bc he knows how guys THINK
because HES ONE
okay nvm no need to panic afterall
honestly he’s still just as romantic doesn’t matter the gender
will pummel anyone who has something negative to say about you two
if your a big scary guy he feels proud he bagged you 😭
he’s thinking “yeahh me and my s/o are so bad we so cool😎”
yup u sure are chuuya
if your a more nonchalant person or just don’t care for romance
it may seem more like bromance 🤪
if your into cars he’ll buy you the coolest, most lavish brands
if your a feminine dude he can buy you makeup or whatever it is you want
he doesn’t know you gotta tell em
just as willing to cuddle you as he would a woman
wants to be the big spoon tho
he wants dominance over everyone disregarding gender so of course he does
he thinks he’s chad
def practices how to act around you
wants you to think he’s cool so bad
he’s more likely to be more ‘tsundere’ (for lack of better words😭) in public
you know it’s just a farce
ngl he low key gets angry if someone asks who’s the dom tho
like he wants it to be visible that he is
but don’t ask
he finds it somewhat disrespectful
since its pretty much comparing you to a hetero couple
like does it matter?
why do they get to be the standard 😐
i hope you like wine as well
its easier to gift each other wines more than anything
trying each other’s wines and criticizing or complimenting them
chuuya enjoys late quiet nights with you
watching the stars
maybe some deep conversation here and there
gets angry if your taller and he has to get on your level to kiss you 😗
if your short as well he gets a confidence boost
his kisses are sensual and long if you have enough time
holds your neck and waist
loves to pepper kisses on your neck if your doing paperwork
if you work at the port mafia too it would likely be if your doing overtime
btw the port mafia is highly likely where you met
what better place to meet a cool guy??
if your not as strong don’t even worry about it he’ll always protect you
pretty cocky about it too
loves if his smirk can make you melt
if you give him a genuine compliment his eyes widen, he starts blushing and he gets butterflies in his stomach
‘tch’ *blushes and turns away*
loves to team up with you in fights
especially against dazai
appreciates if your physically strong bc then you can beat him up
since it seems to be his weakness
will subtly compliment you if your a good cook
thinks it’s better than restaurant food
“no need to eat out anymore i guess”
“you’d put 5 star restaurants out of business”
lowkey admires if you have a lot of skills/talents or hobbies bc he doesn’t have many himself seeing as though his jobs takes up a lot of his time
even if he learned some before he joined he can’t practice often
thinks it’s cool if you can find a balance
likes to watch you do things you enjoy
doesnt mean in it a creepy way of course
he just likes to see you content and happy
enjoy masculine readers! :)

Hercules and the Lost Kingdom
The great HTLJ/XWP/YH (re)watch continues!
I watched this movie for the first time the other day, and I think I liked it better than 'Hercules and the Amazon Women'?
Firstly: Renee O'Connor is in this one!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
How much does Deianira act like Gabrielle in the pre-sea-serpent parts of the movie??
Another familiar face: Nathaniel Lees! ♥ (He plays Cheiron in YH, and I got excited when I saw him, lol. He plays the Blue Cult priest in this movie.)
Obviously I was disappointed that Iolaus didn't make an appearance, but I guess he's not the focus.
The movie opened with some people searching for Hercules to get help, just like the first movie did. But Hera kills two of them, and honestly the second guy just seemed very okay with it, idgi. Just calmly accepted that he was the one the rock was going to bash in the head. (Let's ignore the faulty physics of the scene. It's god stuff.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hercules trying to eat in peace... I actually felt bad for him when the giant showed up haha. Actually, to be honest, I was surprised at how happy I was to see him (Hercules, I mean). I think he's winning me over despite my Kevin-Sorbo-aversion.
Hercules hates god worship.
This is something we saw in the Amazon Women movie that is a pretty big focus again at the beginning of this one.
He turns down the villagers' offer to build a shrine to him (since he killed the giant). When he says he "wouldn't know what to do with one" this gets a laugh from Zeus, but I assumed he meant it literally.
Zeus suggesting that Hercules make a sacrifice to Hera is just so fucking tone deaf. Even if Hercules did try to honour Hera, I don't think that would help, and Hera just literally killed a man in Hercules's arms so WTF my dude. (Apparently one of 100 men she killed who were all sent to find him.)
Herc then interrupts a sacrifice to the gods and tells the people to irrigate instead. I like his pragmatic approach. At least this time he was giving them concrete, workable advice, and not straight up suggesting they piss off the gods directly.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
When this character showed up I had a huge reaction!! Something set off whatever the positive version of alarm bells is. IDK if this character (Waylin) shows up in the show or something or the actor plays another character, but something deep in my memory was like 😍 for some reason. (And he was cute in this movie! ♥ But I've definitely not seen it!)
Just as an aside: How was Deianira able to just walk up to the palace and knock on the front door?? Multiple times?
As much as it was cute that Deianira really did have a father who was a handsome king that loved her so much he sent her away to be safe...... I hated that the reveal happened when only Deianira was with the king, and that he died right after. Like, everyone in Troy just has to take her word for it that she's his daughter (well I guess the one dude heard the King say her name). She comes out of the tent totally redressed and gives a speech and... everyone just accepts her as their leader immediately. Idk man, I don't buy it. But, I'm not one to follow monarchs, haha.
I hate Deianira flirting with Hercules and I'm really glad it wasn't mutual.
Again idk if this is him swearing off all women after Hippolyta was killed because of him, or if he thinks she's too young, or if he just really isn't that interested in women at all... Either way, I'm good with it in this movie.
The rock thing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He tells the people from Troy that in order to be warriors and kill people, they need to be like a rock. "A rock has no mind or heart or hope or fear." BE HARD.
I gotta say this doesn't really feel like the Young Hercules characterization of Herc (which I know more), and I am not sure I agree with the philosophy. (I am reminded of Buffy saying that her emotions give her strength in S2 of BtVS.)
And I get that in the end, the rocks help them defeat their enemy, and that's fine as far as how cheesy a twist it was and all. I just don't agree with the philosophy and I don't want Herc to think this way. I want him to be able to have emotions and be happy and enjoy life and stuff and it makes me kinda sad to think he thinks he needs to abandon having a mind/heart/hope... Like, he's a demigod already, he will be strong enough to help people even without closing his heart off... Maybe this is a coping mechanism for him, idk. I look forward to seeing how this keeps up through the series (or not).
Short thoughts:
Once again I enjoyed Herc giving Zeus shit. (Re: helping them take Troy back from the Blue Cult.)
I wasn't a fan of the subplot with the guy from Troy that saw Herc as a love rival for Deianira.
"Cow-herd's way" was... dorky. It amused me.
Herc shouldn't have needed to pick up a piece of rubble to hit the priest with, if he was able to punch a giant to death. Maybe it was to spare his hand?
Herc not wanting a slave is totally in character, played into the previous themes re: god worship etc.
Deianira wtf?
Deianira is so ready to die for her people, to "fulfill her destiny". Okay, cool she wants to protect the people of Troy, but why is she so convinced that she needs to be sacrificed to the gods after she learns that she was saved from that as a child by her father? (I guess trying to avoid prophecies that are actually inevitable is a Greek thing tho.)
I don't love that Deianira became a helpless damsel, lost and confused, and wearing a billowing white dress while being threatened by a monster man... for Hercules to save. At least it's not to bone her?
WHAT IS THIS?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Herc gets yeeted out of there. It was really silly. I guess he's taking Deianira's place as Hera's sacrifice kinda (but not really)...
It should have ended here, tbh. We shouldn't have seen him again. We get a nice little wrap up that Troy will be okay. Perfect!
But then we get this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And while it's, like, nice to know he didn't die, I guess... IDK him just getting yeeted back to wherever Troy is cut off from, and having someone need his help... feels like a much weaker ending to the movie. Maybe this was so the movies could be watched out of order and they wouldn't have to explain how he survived Hera in a different one. That's logical, I just don't like it.
So... final thoughts... I don't see this being one I watch over and over again either, but... I think I had a better time watching this one than the Amazon Women one. The plot didn't feel as cheesy/heavy handed. I felt a lot more connected to Hercules already, and the other familiar faces were nice, too.
I wanna see that one guy again! Waylin! Is he a recurring character or just the actor? Where am I pinging him from?? He was a delight.

NCT Dream reaction to hearing ‘I love you’ for the first time
MASTERLIST || REQUESTS ARE OPEN!!!!
Hi guys! This is my first “reactions” post so I do hope you like it! I’ve added Mark and Haechan to the list this time. I already wrote out Mark’s before realizing that I was just going to keep them with 127, so I said “to heck with it” and decided to keep them in this post XP Also, Chenle and Jisung are left out of this reaction, only because they are both still young ♥  So, I hope you enjoy!!!!!
Mark
Tumblr media
can we just say awkward but in the cutest way
i can see him staring with wide eyes and his mouth slightly ajar
a little stuttering going on as he asks ‘wait what?’
he’d chuckle, scratching the back of his neck still flabbergasted by what you just said
it may take his brain a little bit to process that someone has just said “I love you” to him
so give this poor man some time
once he understands and reality smacks him in the face
he’ll smile lightly and with the smallest voice say
“I love you too”
[is it weird that I also hear him saying “dude” somewhere in this whole conversation? lol]
Renjun
Tumblr media
so, can we just say he would have hearts in his eyes
literally would be super shocked but oh so happy to hear those three words
he’s a hopeless romantic in my eyes despite all the choke holds
[i understand you Renjun sometimes Haechan is that annoying] LOL
he’d probably take a huge gulp before scratching the back of his neck not knowing what to do
if he’s brave enough to make physical contact afterwards
it’ll be a light embrace before pulling back to look you in the eyes
if not, he’d most likely hold your hands tightly before saying that he loved you as well
he’d admit that he wanted to say it for a while now
but didn’t want to rush you or make things weird
however, he’s super happy that you told him
he’ll be in an extremely good mood all day long
not even Haechan will get under his skin xP
Jeno
Tumblr media
*am I falling for Jeno O.O [no I can’t be...Jaemin my Dream bias...I’m sorry...he’s just too cute...T.T] * LOL
when you say “I love you” he’ll be shocked
a lot of “eh?” “what?” “huh?” noises coming from him
y’all know what I’m talking about *wink*
his eyes wide as an owl’s while he processes your confession
the moment that the light bulb turns on he’s full of love
seriously, will smile at you like your the answer to all his prayers
just a huge softie and is it weird that I see him hiding his face?
like he won’t know what the flop just happened but he couldn’t be happier
he may even wrap his arm around yours snuggling close to you
only so that you won’t see his face
in the softest but deepest voice he’ll utter “I love you too”
if he’s feeling brave he may even look up showing you how red his face had gotten
seriously WHY THE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP AM I CRUSHING ON JENO RIGHT NOW?!
Haechan
Tumblr media
*seriously it was hard to find a proper gif for Haechanie T.T*
this brat will automatically freeze up
no joke! haha surprise him with those three words and his brain will stall
it’ll probably be the first time you caught him off guard and he doesn’t know exactly how to take this turn of events
but once he does...
THE BIGGEST FLIPPIN’ SMIRK WILL BE ON HIS FACE
seriously it’ll annoy you...
you’ll want to turn away, walk away, stomp out of the room before you say something offensive
because of how freakin’ adorable he is
but also because you just opened pandora’s box of teasing
you know 100% that for the rest of your time together or your LIFE he won’t let you live this down
this brat would even lean in and ask for you to repeat yourself because he didn’t hear you
with the most obvious smile on his face that clearly says “I heard everything”
*secretly I’m whipped for Haechan LOL*
when you refuse [because it was hard enough once] he’ll get whiny
he doesn’t know the term “personal space” or “social distancing” lol
he won’t stop acting adorkable until you shout out “I SAID I LOVED YOU FOR GOODNESS SAKE NOW SHUT UP!”
he’ll probably scoff and say that you don’t need to shout that he heard you the first time
yeah...he’ll make you want to explode with fury...that is...
until he gives you a peck on the lips and says “I love you too”
with the MOST sincere voice and expression you’ve seen from him
then...and only then will your fury fade
Jaemin
Tumblr media
*why does this gif crack me up? why are you so adorable Jaemin?! Why?!!!*
another “Haechan-like” member
he’ll be shocked but he won’t be shocked to the point Haechan was
he’ll smile that cute adorable grin where it seems like he’ll turn into the Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland
your brain already waiting for him to call you a cutie
for him to pinch your cheeks
and just start bouncing around like a kid in a candy store
but what will happen is a simple wink then a kiss blown your way
he may/may not say I love you back depending on how long you’ve been together
he’s the only one who I feel will only say it back if he 100% means it
[y’know not as some kind of reflex or thinking he NEEDS to say it back]
like even if he has SSSSSSUUUUUUUPPPPPPEEEEEERRRRR strong feelings for you if those are not justified by the word “love” he won’t say it
if it’s like this he’ll say you’ve made him the happiest man in the world
then shower you in affection
to which you won’t be upset
IF the feelings are the same...
HE’LL SHOWER YOU IN AFFECTION
again you won’t be upset by this at all ♥♥♥♥
*salutes you* good luck soldier! we all know how Jaemin is when he’s feeling all cute and in his feelings ♥
*melts at the thought* ♥♥

Transcript under the cut
Previous / Next
@thegrimalldis​ ♥
St.Matthew’s High School - 9.30 am
Louis: Please, Harry! It’s just this time! My mom bought me horrible clothes! Yours are way cooler than mine. Just let me borrow a pair of jeans at least, bro!
Harry: Lou, it’s not my fault that your mom doesn’t have good taste! Besides, aren’t you old enough to buy your own clothes? Or at least to tell her what you wanna wear?
???: So what’s the point of joining the debate team?
???: *laughs* I know that it may be lame to you, but I think it’s a good pleace to learn how to argue properly
Eugenie: You do know that the people who joins has to wear a horrible suit for every competition, right?
Amelie: Yes, I do... But, luckily, I have a roommate who knows about fashion well enough to help me style it!
Louis: My father took my credit card because I’ve spent a lot of money on a new computer... He said that the money we get it’s not meant to buy videogames. Seriously, dude! Why did I get the tightfisted parents?
Harry: I’m sorry, Lou... I guess you can borrow a pain, but you’ll own me!
Eugenie: Hey, losers! Meet my new roommate! The one you were dying to meet! Guys, this is Amelie Grimalldi. She goes by Millie, though. Millie these are my cousins, Harry and Louis
Amelie: Hi... I’m very happy to finally meet you two. Nini has told me a lot about you
Louis: Well, since you have been a mistery to both of us, I hope we can get to know you as well
Amelie: *laughs* I hope not to be a disappointment then
Harry: How could you be a disappointment being a Grimalldi?
Amelie: Does that really matters here? 
Harry: Not really... Unless you are thinking on joining the polo team. In that case, the name may get you a spot 
Amelie: *laughs* Could I use my name to get into the debate team as well?
Harry: Well, in that one you’ll need real knowledge to get in. We don’t accept people who can’t argue. Can you do that Miss Grimalldi?
Amelie: Of course I can, but- 
Harry: Are you sure? Cause- Well, I don’t wanna brag, but we are pretty tough on new blood
Amelie: Oh, I don’t think so... I mean if you are their biggest weapon, then I guess I can take everyone else
Louis: Oh, god... This is gonna be complicated...
Harry: Not at all, Lou! Let me guess... You were the best at your old school and you believe you have everything it takes to be the captain of this team, am I right?
Amelie: Well, I don’t wanna brag, but I believe I am smart enough to lead this team
Harry: And how are you gonna lead them if I’m doing that already? 
Amelie: Oh, so you wanna be the captain? I thought a good leader has to be kind as well as smart. Maybe you don’t have all it takes after all...
Harry: Is that really all you’ve got? It seems I have it on the bag
Eugenie: Stop it, Harry! You are spoiling Millie’s first day!
Amelie: Don’t worry, Nini... It takes more than that to spoil my day! See you at the first panel, Hammond
Eugenie: Sorry about Harry. He’s just full of himself. My mom says he takes it after his father
Amelie: Don’t worry about it! Besides, I’m pretty sure I’m gonna beat him 
Louis: Why did you have to be like that with her?
Harry: Oh, come on, Lou! It’s not like I made her cry! Besides, it’s good to have some competition, and I find her very interesting... Come one! Let’s get you some jeans, shall we?
Louis: You could at least be kindder to her. She’s a Princess!
Harry: So? Didn’t you say to be that I should pretend to be normal? Well, I’m doing it!
Eugenie: Come on, Millie! You are not gonna beat Harry unless we get you into that team

(laa) oh Ethan's far from my first obsession or hyperfocus (earliest RE were OG chris, Jill and Claire in early 2000s), but normally these last a month or 2 then fade to 'man I really like this thing' and I occasionally revisit them when something pops on my feeds or any tracked tags in some sites,,, but with these characters? so far it's been nothing but 'Ethan! Rose! classic!RE lore revisit! sometimes Venom! rarely the lords+miranda! then back to Ethan! Rose!' and and the whole loving a chara that *loves*? aw yisss
like I'm at work, and sometimes if there aren't any customers or things to write on the pc, there's just fanfic in my mind 'hm *Ethan doing mundane stuff I do at home - or teaching Rose how to play piano* ah yes happy hcs ♥' or 'enough of Ethan survived and was picked up by the Connections bc Lucas told them about him and/or their mole in the BSAA found out his moldy status and now Rose is going to find him while on a completely unrelated mission and they've experimented on him and hurt him so much during all these years she thought him dead (I need the whump (ʘ‿ʘ✿) ), she could barely recognise him, it was only bc of the emotion in his eyes when he looked at her and when he tries to whisper her name (and ofc the mold itself probably screaming at her that's Daddy!!) and she well she rains absolute hell on them and brings down the entire facility - chris being disturbed is a must, he understands why she did it but also serves as a nice reminder of how powerful she is and how much she loves her dad and how far she'll go for him ok just like that agent said 'you're a lot like him, you know?' (did this guy know Ethan or just heard about him? why say 'today of all days', was it a special date, what about? they both know chris (and she's not v happy w him) so whats with the sniper? i have questions! capcommm! these years of waiting - also i need sleep rn)
Oh, yeah. Like Ethan's a pretty simple character, he doesn't really need much to work as he does, but the things he does are so in sync with what I like.
Like on my first watch of a playthrough, at first I was both "He seems kinda boring lol" and "Aw poor dude. Don't worry Ethan, we're in this together. But your screams of pain ARE kinda doing it for me..." at the same time XD It was through his continuous refusal to give a shit and to accept he's in a horror game and through his love for Rose that moved him forward that took me from liking him straight into loving the shit out of him.
Coming up with fic ideas during boring work hours is a must. How else are we gonna spend our time? XD Ethan teaching Rose how to play the piano 🥺🥺 Im lov. I want this, sweet moments between a daughter and the father who fought like hell to save her 😭😭 But this:
"she could barely recognise him, it was only bc of the emotion in his eyes when he looked at her and when he tries to whisper her name (and ofc the mold itself probably screaming at her that's Daddy!!)"
sadafdsgfadgafsdgfdv!! I want this!! I want them to reunite so bad! And if it's after Ethan has been tortured and experimented upon... well, the more whump the better! Like you know, make him suffer hell and then give him a happy ending. That's how it works for us! They deserve to get to know each other 🥺🥺
I'd honestly love to see how Rose grows up to see Chris as. She says to that agent "I can show you things even Chris doesn't know I can do" so Chris knows a lot, and is supposed to be the guy who knows THE most about Rose, at least when it comes to her mold powers. And I'd really like to see the dynamic of those two.
About that agent, I've heard the theory that he was one of the guys who gave Ethan military training before re8. Otherwise, if he's just heard about Ethan, it doesn't make too much sense, because it's different to get to know a person and to just hear stuff about them. Or maybe Ethan's story became a BIG thing in whatever team they've got going on (I'm guessing it's not BSAA) and he knows a lot of stuff about him. He says "Today of all days" because it looks like it's Ethan's birthday. Like Rose says "Sorry I missed last week" when she puts the flowers down on his grave, but I don't know if that means that she missed his birthday which was last week, or if she missed her weekly visit to his grave, and the day she went happened to be his birthday.
And about the sniper, I'm pretty sure they're afraid of her. I don't think them having a sniper on her was approved by Chris - in fact, I have a theory that her working with that agent is happening completely behind Chris' back, like Chris has a team training Rose and this guy is with them and secretly working with her, perhaps because he's a Connections/BSAA mole and they want to use her or something - but in any case they probably think she may get uncontrollable and unpredictable, so they're having a failsafe in case she tries something. Super creepy, by the way. But it's also an awesome sequel hook, as soon as I saw it I was like "So Rose for protagonist on re9, right? Is it coming tomorrow or what??"
