#and with no adoring little sister to make sure he doesn't starve this time

[kristybluebird]

"Quit saying I look like Miki. He's dumb and a coward, and I AM NOT A COWARD"

This is from my Kozue Co-prez post-canon scenario

[hollowbait]

Concept: A fic where Kisuke and Ichigo timetravel to prevent Aizen fucking everything up and in a curious chain of events end up having to get fake married in order to adopt toddler Akon and baby Nemu.

Akon is an adorable too-smart three year old who thinks the sun shines out of Kisuke's ass, not only because of his already-fading memory of Kisuke saving him, but because his dad has the coolest job in the world! He sees his dad do a drawing and then a day later he's made the drawing come to life! And he knows the answer to everything! Did you know plants are green because of something called CLAW-RAW-FILL?

Of course, he loves Ichigo too. His papa always makes sure there's food, and it always tastes really good! He vaguely remembers a time when food was hard to find, so papa must be super smart to keep finding it all the time. Plus, he makes the food all while carrying his baby sister on his back, which must be tiring, but he never acts tired, so he must be super strong too.

When Akon isn't allowed to go to work with daddy (because of course he asks to come with him every day) he goes with Papa, whose job, according to his daddy, is to be a hero. Being a hero means that instead of just cooking for Akon and baby Nemu, papa also cooks for a lot of other kids that stay in another house that papa and daddy also built. Even though they don't live with Akon and Nemu, the other kids are kind of like family too. "It's just that we can't all fit in our house because it's too small, so we built another house."

The other house has lots of other adults who always take care of all of them — aunt Kuukaku is Akon's favourite, she teaches all of them what to do if someone bad tries to be mean to them.

The fic would be entirely from three year old Akon's perspective, and you'd get little glimpses of Kisuke and Ichigo's "double life" from observations Akon doesn't really understand — daddy talking about how there's a new person at work, and the glasses man who always said hi to Akon not being around anymore.

ANYWAY: timetravel kidfic where they defeat Aizen while raising kids and also Ichigo runs an orphanage because there's no way he's gonna stand idly by while kids starve on the streets. Oh and somewhere between all that his and Kisuke's fake marriage becomes real without either of them even realising. Because they're idiots.

As a huge love between fairy and devil lover whose favorite couple of all time is XLH and DFQC (love you header btw) I want to watch eastern fantasy what can you tell me about it? All I know is she goes into a game or something? How's the otp? I know nothing can be as good as those two but is it at least the same trope of how much they both adored each other and were willing to sacrifice for each other?

YES you should definitely watch it!

So Ling Miaomiao is a modern woman and the fan of a famous novelist, who just released his newest work, Catching Demons. She speed reads it (she's even listening to the audio of it while in a meeting at work yes queen), and realizes she... hates it. Completely despises it even though she really loves this author's work most of the time. Naturally she gets online to complain about it, and as she's doing so, she gets sucked into the world of the novel where she's in the body of the second female lead, the cruel, sinister, and doomed to die Lin Yu. 'The system' (a nebulous mysterious force that brought her in) gives her two tasks:

Survive the novel to the end

Make the second male lead, Mu Sheng, fall in love with her.

Mu Sheng is the second male lead in the novel, and not only does he end up as an antagonist, but he's literally the one who kills Lin Yu. So it seems an impossible task.

Of course though, it turns out Mu Sheng is rough with a gooey center; a true tsundere. He's love starved and lonely. He has a huge secret that he has to hide from everyone around him, including his beloved sister. It doesn't take much, just a lot of being herself, for him to start falling for Ling Miaomiao.

The game mechanics are the way 'the system' presents the story, so LMM has to try and get Mu Sheng to an 100% approval rating toward her, sort of like an otome game. There's lots of cute little jokes playing on this story mechanic (LMM commenting on 'how good the special effects are', using modern terminology and confusing people).

The rest of the plot is fun too! It indeed involves a lot of 'catching demons', as well as an overarching storyline about a powerful demon who 'cracked the sky' nine hundred years ago and is returning to try and end the world again. The costumes are wonderful, the effects are solid, and the acting is strong. There are lots of found family vibes among the main group and a child character who is not annoying.

Comparing it to LBFAD, LBFAD is more interested in diving deep into the characters and giving them pretty drastic development arcs. You are not going to get quite the character depth DFQC and XLH had, nor really, the relationship depth. And that's okay. LGIEF moves pretty briskly, and it is just a little lighter on the whole (though I know it will still break my heart like LBFAD did). It probably won't totally change your life and rewrite your brain chemistry like I'm sure LBFAD did, but you will have SO MUCH fun and the ship is super lovable and has eaten my brain.

Esther Yu and Ding Yuxi have GREAT chemistry. Esther is absolutely adorable at all times; funny and charming and looking the prettiest she's ever looked in one of the best Cdrama wardrobes ever. Ding Yuxi has puppy dog eyes on LOCK. He's brusque and sad and angry, but he is marshmallow sweet and so earnest as he experiences his first love. They are SO soft, and absolutely, they'd die for each other. So yes, WATCH IT.

Phantom thief girls with a s/o who's on the shy side but he's also touch starved because his parents neglect him.

Warnings: Mild spoilers for Yoshizawa's part, mentions of past child neglect

Phantom Thief Girls with a Shy Male S/O

Ann Takamaki

She never minded your shyness

Although, she would like it if you joined her for modeling gigs, but she won't pressure you

As we know, she's very affectionate

So the first time she gave you a hug, you kind of blanked out

She got worried until you assured her that it was fine and that you just weren't used to it

She didn't mind giving you more hugs, but she was worried about what kind of upbringing you had

So she kept giving you more affection and internally fangirled when you leaned into it like a cat

When she learned about how your parents treated you, she was so sad

How could someone ignore someone as sweet as you, especially your own parents?

She'll ask the Phantom Thieves to change your parents' hearts while assuring you that she'll never treat you like that

Overall, she thinks you're the sweetest thing ever

And she thinks you deserved way better, and she'll make sure to give you better than what those jerks gave you

Makoto Niijima

She doesn't mind your shyness

It's actually quite endearing

She's not the most touchy-feely, but there was this time you got a really good test score and she gave you a hug to congratulate you and you froze

She got concerned and you told her that it was just because you weren't used to it

She made a mental note to hug you more often, but it still worried her

Upon learning about how your parents treated you, she was sad and a little angry

She can understand what it's like to grow up lonely, but nobody deserves that

If you want, she'll ask Joker to change their hearts, and she'll assure you that she'll never ever make you feel neglected

She knows she can be busy and get caught up with school and Phantom Thief biz, but she'll always make time for you

She thinks you're really sweet, and deserved so much better

Plus, her experience with you helped with her own touch-starvation as well

Futaba Sakura

She can relate to your shyness

After all, she was a shut-in for a long while

So she got along with you quicker than the others

And when she started getting more and more comfy with you, she gave you a hug

And you stood in silent shock for a moment

She asked what was wrong in the most "Futaba" way possible

"Woah, (Name) has officially malfunctioned! Is there a problem with your programming?"

You explained that you were simply touch-starved, which she could relate to

"I see... Well then, the great and lovable Futaba shall heal your touch-starvation with more hugs!"

She started hugging you more often, especially after she learned about your upbringing

She honestly won't bother with having Joker change your parents' hearts

Forget them, they suck

But if you still care about them, which she doesn't understand, then she'll begrudgingly have Joker change their hearts so you can still have parents

Anything to make you happy

Haru Okumura

Omg you're literally the cutest thing ever

She doesn't mind your shyness whatsoever

She already spoiled the crap out of you, but your cuteness makes her want to do it even more

And she certainly doesn't mind doing the talking for you

She's rather affectionate, so it was kind of a big adjustment for you

Hearing about your upbringing made her super sad

But don't worry, she'll give you all the affection in the world to make up for it

She honestly doesn't think your parents deserve your time at all, but if you still want them in your life, she'll help change their hearts

Anyway, she absolutely adores you, and she will spend the rest of her life making up for the way your parents treated you

KaSumire Yoshizawa

She finds you very endearing

Just having you around makes her smile

She tends to be a bit more expressive, particularly if you first met while she was posing as her sister, Kasumi

But she doesn't mind that you're shyer compared to her

She's a big fan of physical affection, so she likes to hug you rather frequently

Like when you meet up at the train station, or you just got done cheering her on during one of her gymnastics performances

The first time it happened, though, you were caught off guard and she got worried

You explained why you reacted that way, and she got really sad

But she swore to give you extra affection to make up for it

She quickly comes up with the idea to change your parents' hearts so you can get the love from them that you deserved

But she won't do it unless she has the okay from you

Anyway, she absolutely adores you and your shyness

And she'll be more than happy to help you break out of your shell if you want her to

[ezravon3]

So I decided to do this relationship chart thing again. This time with the WH:Mob!au, which belongs to @clownsuu. Like with my last relationship chart post, I'm sorry if this is bad. I decided to do two ocs this time though so this post will be longer. [And the character info will explain more about the relationships]

(Here's another pic of her to show her outfit more clearly 👇)

Oc info:

Name: Alexis [last name unknown]

Age: 19

Sexuality: AroAce

Scars: arms, sides, neck [under caller], hands, legs and back.

Tattoos: The ones on her face under her eye. And a skull with a black blooming rose coming out the right eye covering her right side.

Preferred Weapon: Blades [but does carry around handguns with silensers on them. And extra bullets]

Personally: With the exception of a certain people, she's very cold and unsympathetic. (She's just following Wally's orders and doesn't question them)

Freinds(?): Wally & co, Beatrix [her pet snake] and Eliza [baby sister].

Her relationships:

Wally: She's always respected him more then anyone else even before she even met him. Once they did meet by chance one day, he felt like she was ment to be family. But to be his family, one has to give up a part of the to him. She willingly gave him her eye.

Howdy: She's respected him from the very beginning as well. She's pretty much 'friends' with him [as close to friends as one can get with him] and likes to help him out in her free time.

Barnaby: Her relationship with him is more...neutral then anything else. She does have some respect for him but is also a tad jealous of how close he is with their boss [Wally]. He also annoys her sometimes. Not too much but still.

Sally: The two get along very well as Alexis matches her chaotic energy pretty well. The two are very good friends and [with the exeption of Howdy & Poppy] she trusts Sally the most.

Julie: She's happy to help Julie get suplies and test subjects [who are usually just random people Alexis kidnapps] and doesn't ask questions about what she does with said subjecs or suplies. [Alexis doesn't care what Julie does as long as she doesn't harm her little sister]

Frank: She doesn't interact with him often but when she does, she gets along with him well enough. She even helps him with his work sometimes.

Eddie: She gets along well with him and even made him a mechanical arm to replace the one he lost. She's actually pretty protective of him, feeling sympathy for him. She protects him when he's out on his job sometimes, like Sally does.

Poppy: She respects and cares deeply for Poppy, seeing her as a mother figure. She cares for Poppy the most out of the puppets and she sooths the poor bird when she's scared. Poppy is also the one besides Eliza, Howdy, Eddie and Sally [and Beatrix of course] that's aloud to touch her. [She reacts violently if anyone else even tries to touch her or even gets too close to her]

Beatrix: She's very attached to the black snake and vice versa so she always has the snake with her, often either on her shoulders, hanging on her arm or just sitting curled up in her pocket.

Eliza: She adores her little sister and the child is the only one she'll put above everyone else. Including herself and even Wally. She will always makes sure her sister is taken care of, even if that means going against Wally's orders.

Background: Born poor, she grew up as a begger and had no choice but to steal. Especially after her baby sister was born when she was nine. She was forced to kill for the first time when she was twelve. Her first victims were her own parents. Her abusive, drug addicted father and her selfish, entitled mother. She starved herself to be able to feed her little sister when she couldn't steal enough food for both of them.

Extra: She's currently recovering from the eating disorder she developed due to not eating properly growing up. Due to her upbringing, she also doesn't have a good option on romantic love or romantic relationships. [And if someone confessed their romantic feelings for her, she'd honestly probably just stab them]. She got her scars from several different things. Some are self influenced [sides, arms, legs] some are from small injuries made by accidents in her childhood and some are from her father's abuse. All the scars on her back and the ones on her neck are all from her 'father'. [The one on her neck is from his failed attempt to kill her via strangulation and the ones on her back are from him hitting her as she protected Eliza, who was just a baby at the time]. She removed her own eye after making a deal with Wally. She also made it clear from the start that if she joins, Eliza will have to join too and that if it came down to her chosing between them and Eliza, she will always choose Eliza. [As well as if they ever want to harm Eliza, they'd have to kill her (Alexis) first].

Oc info:

Name: Eliza [last name unknown]

Age: 10

Scars: none

Tattoos: none

Preferred weapon: none

Personality: Timid but used to the sight of violence and blood. She avoids everyone unless she's given the greenlight from her sister to be around them.

Friends(?): Wally & co, Beatrix and Alexis.

Her Relationships:

Wally: She's terrified of him and avoids him like the plague.

Howdy: She really likes and respects him. She hangs around him when he's not busy.

Barnaby: She's scared of him but also kinda intrigued by him.

Sally: She's scared of her but also kinda intrigued by her

Julie: She's scared of her and actively avoids her.

Frank: She likes him but doesn't see him much.

Eddie: She likes him and loves to hang around him.

Poppy: Like Alexis, she sees Poppy as a mother figure. She hangs around Poppy the most and mostly acts as her little assistant. She often calls Poppy 'Mama' too.

Beatrix: She loves the snake and happily plays with her as well as feed her.

Alexis: Eliza's legal garden. She adores her and really looks up to her. She also feels the safest with her. [The second 'person' she feels the safest around is Howdy, third is Poppy, last is Eddie]

Extra: Like her sister, she willingly gave her eye to join the family but her eye was removed professionally by her sister after she was given a numbing drug so she wouldn't feel any pain from it. Eliza only joined because her sister did and Alexis wasn't going to leave her all alone.

[kiame-sama]

Can I get some more of Killua with a sisterly reader? I loved the previous ones and I think the Nen the reader has is hella cool!

Warnings; spoilers (but if you know about Alluka you already know), for some reason I see tiny Nezuko as Nanika (it makes an odd amount of sense since Nanika is canonically more of a child than Alluka is), mention of kidnapping, mention of manipulation, affection starved children, for a family that doesn't like cameras there sure are a lot of them, kindness wins (for now),

(I'm glad you like it. Some say it is overpowered and the thing is; it is. That is the point. You can't make just a small storm, you will destroy the surrounding area or you will make a mini cloud no bigger than a hamster. 0 or 100. The joys of being a decent person who actually doesn't like slaughtering innocent people. Your moral compass (which few characters have in hxh) is the main limiter of your nen.)

The screens flickered with various angles on the two escaped Zoldycks, the head of house watching the interaction of his two children. They were so close in age it was surprising to see how drastically different they were from one another. Truly they cared for one another and didn't seek to control or manipulate despite the way they were raised.

It was humbling in a sense to see the two siblings together and it gave a moment of pause to the typically stone-faced head of house.

"You're going to like (y/n), Alluka. I think Nanika is going to like her too."

"I like her already!"

Killua smiled at the quick trust Alluka put in him, feeling an honest excitement to introduce his little sister to his big sister.

Waiting not far ahead you felt a wave of relief when you saw Killua approaching with who you assumed to be his little sister. Since he had to go alone to get her, you had been so worried that something would have happened to either of them. It was already a horrible feeling to have lost Gon the way you two have and you felt like it was your fault in some way.

"There you two are! I was worried..."

"I told you we'd be here, didn't I?"

"Yes," you sighed and smiled, "I know. I just can't help but worry, you know that."

"You don't have to worry now! We can go back to traveling together and everything can be just like before."

Killua gently set Alluka down, taking care to ensure she was on steady feet before letting her go completely. It was clear that Alluka was quite suddenly shy with the new face, moving from one side to the other nervously. You couldn't help but find the awkward presence of Alluka to be adorable, crouching down so you were closer to her level. Taking the first step, you slowly extended your hand out to the sweet girl, trying to seem as non-threatening as possible.

"Hello. My name is (y/n) (l/n), it is nice to meet you. May I know your name?"

Alluka seemed a bit more at ease with you crouched as she approached you hesitantly. Her small hand seemed so much smaller in comparison to your own as she did her best to shake your hand.

"I'm- I'm Alluka... Killua is your friend?"

"Yes, we are friends."

"... Can I have a hug?"

It seemed like a shy request at first as you happily acquiesced to the little girl. You didn't notice the way Killua suddenly tensed or how he seemed almost afraid while looking in your general direction. As the little girl pressed into your soft body, you were surprised to see a pair of empty eyes staring back at you, a hollow smile on the face of the child.

It took only a moment for you to relax again, smiling down at the unusual pair of beings that inhabited the same body.

"Well, full of surprises, eh? The more the merrier, I say. What is your name?"

The child-being stared in shock at you, as if they had been expecting you to throw them the moment they showed themselves. They didn't even respond when you gently petted their hair, pulling them back into a hug that was loose enough for them to pull away if they wanted to.

"It's okay, sweetheart. You're safe here. Take as much time as you need."

You were surprised when you felt the child wrap their arms as far around you as they could, clinging to your clothes and burying their face into your chest. A soft sniffle was all you heard before tears began streaking down the child's face. Despite your surprise at the sudden show of emotion, you let the child weep into you and cling to you with such intensity it was as if they feared you would disappear. It was then you realized just what you were dealing with, two children who were bound together as one and have been treated like monsters since.

Killua told you little of what had been done to him and his siblings during their developmental years, and you knew that so few could actually withstand such treatment. Here these two children were, lost and afraid in a place that sees them only as a means to an end.

You apparently had a knack for saying what children needed to hear most from an adult figure after spending so long being manipulated, evident by the child that cried in your arms.

"Oh, Sweetlings, I understand. I get it... I'm here for you."

"Please stay... Don't go away..."

"I wouldn't dream of it."

"... Nanika..."

"Hmm?"

"My name, it- it's Nanika..."

"Well, Nanika, it is good to meet both you and Alluka. I'm sure we can all be good friends."

A stunned silence seemed to ring in the monitor filled room. Again, this odd woman gained the affection of another Zoldyck child, showing an intense motherly affection despite not being the true mother of either child. Even the demon showed a surprising fondness and vulnerability towards her, actually weeping openly.

Perhaps they had approached it all wrong? Perhaps the demon could be controlled in a way different from the manipulation they attempted thus far. Perhaps this woman needed to be taken soon and brought into the family, clearly having an adept nature in interacting with the young Zoldycks.

Maybe even having Illumi kidnap and keep her in order to force Killua and Alluka into compliance with the family.

She would no doubt bear strong children for Illumi, her nen a clear indicator of skill that can be passed on to the next generation of assassins. Any child she has would be worthy of the Zoldyck name, not to mention her clear control over Killua, the next head of house. Control her, control the future of the family.

She won't be allowed to escape.

summary: just a casual day with your husband jimin and your little boy jihoon.

a/n: hello! this is a fic i wrote a while ago and thought about sharing it now🥰 there are a few more chapters that i wrote in that universe but they still need to be edited. i hope you like it!!❤

masterlist

Kick...kick...kick...

,,Why are you so active today, my little bean?" you coo, rubbing your belly and feeling the tiny kicks from your 7 month old baby girl in your womb.

,,Baby?" you hear the sound of your 2 year old little baby boy, who is sitting next to you, on his high baby chair. His pastel blue elephant bib is draped around his neck, already soiled with the chicken soup rice porridge your feeding him - even though he only ate approximately 3 spoons of it yet.

,,Your baby sister is moving," you tell him and he excitedly stretches his grabby hands, aiming for your bump, completely ignoring the spoon that he was about to latch his mouth on.

Of course his short chubby arms can't quite reach it, so you grab him from his baby stool and place him on your lap. He automatically brings both his hands on your stomach, roaming them all over your bump and anticipating the movements of his baby sister.

Both of your hands have a firm hold on his back and keep him safe on your lap, because Jihoon tends to get dynamic and thrilled at random times - especially when it had something to do with his still unborn sister. Jihoon loved feeling her kicks, even going so far to refuse to sleep sometimes and clinging onto your womb to not miss anything his sister does.

,,Ohhh," his stunned voice breaks the silence, his eyes going wide as he feels his sibling moving. You laugh at his reaction, one hand pushing his soft hair from his forehead.

When you attempt to sit him back into his baby chair, he whines in displeasure, putting pressure on your stomach with his small hands. You sigh in defeat, not wanting to make him sad because you don't let him rub your belly.

For a few seconds you let him be, granting him the glee he earns from being the closest as possible as he is able to be with his sister. The way Jihoons whole focus is solely fixated on his baby sister makes your heart swell in pure fondness. He couldn't wait for her birth just like Jimin and you.

You don't forget to feed him though. You grab a spoonful of Jihoon's porridge behind him and hold the spoon in front of his lips, waiting for him to open his tiny plump lips - that he definitely got from his dad - but his eyes are remain on your bump, not caring about the food presented in front of him. You slightly raise your hips up, causing his body to bounce on your lap to draw his attention towards you - but nothing. Jihoon simply doesn't care.

,,Jihoon-ah," you scold him with a stern tone  since he's obviously ignoring you.

He looks up at you, with those big brown eyes and your heart lights up at his innocent face.

You hold the spoon closer to his mouth, but still, he doesn't attempt to part his lips, only backing away with his head.

,,No," he says and pushes your hand away with his much smaller hand. You quirk an eyebrow up at his behaviour.

You don't get to berate him again, when you hear the door opening and then closing shut again. You both immediately get excited - well, your excitement isn't really shown outside compared to Jihoon, who seeks to get off your lap and eagerly wants to rush off to his dad. His feet slowly sink down to the floor with your protecting hands around his little body and then his chubby legs sprint to the hallway, desperately wanting to greet his dad.

You hope he won't fall, because that accident happened a lot of times already - always ending up with some sobbing, teary eyes and clinging onto either Jimin or you. Your little boy let his delight go too overboard sometimes and only reserved little care into his surroundings. You'd have to teach him to be more aware of that.

,,Hello little guy," you hear Jimin's voice echoing from the hall.

,,Daddy!" Jihoon exclaims, giggling afterwards because Jimin probably spooned him up and snuggled his face into Jihoon's neck.

You just sit there, a warm smile on your lips, and don't make an attempt to get up to greet your husband too, because your feet are killing you today.

A few seconds later, Jimin enters the kitchen with Jihoon in his arms. Jihoon wrapped his arms and leg around Jimin's upper body, like a little koala bear and you chuckle at that sight. Jimin tilts his head down and places a tender kiss to your lips.

Even though Jimin was only away for 3 hours - because he had some meeting at the company - you missed his presence at home. And I seems like your not the only one who missed him, since Jihoon is practically glued to his daddys body.

,,You three are good?" Jimin asks, taking a seat beside you, while rubbing your belly in soft strokes.

,,We're all fine.", you assure him with a sincere smile. Jimin kisses you again. You just look so adorable right now.

You look at the back of Jihoon's head. Jimin's hand is placed on his back to hold him closely.

,,But Jihoonie still has to eat, right?" you say and look expectantly at his back, waiting for a reaction to your words. Jimin's gaze shoot to Jihoon's - still full - bowl and frowns.

Jihoon wiggles his body and then muffles a tiny 'No' into Jimins shoulder.

Jimin chuckles but then quickly asks ,,What's the matter, baby?" He softly nudges Jihoons head with his shoulder, wanting to see his face. Jihoon looks up to his dad, his lips forming a little pout.

,,You're shirt is stained with his food.", you giggle, after seeing the mess that Jihoons bib caused on Jimin dark shirt. He peers his eyes to the stain but doesn't say anything to that. Jimin and you were already used to dirty clothes since your little boy couldn't stop creating a mess every five minutes.

,,How come you don't want to eat anymore when it seems like you apparently enjoyed it?" Jimin asks the little boy.

You sigh and stand up. Jihoon needs to eat something and if he won't continue eating this meal, then you're going to cook something else. He was already fussy when you sat him down on the baby chair earlier and you don't want to deal with whines if your going to resist on making him eat that food.

You groan slightly when your feet carries your whole body weight and instantly place your hand on your side to steady yourself. Your bump got really big.

,,No, no, baby. I've got this, sit down. I can cook something for him," Jimin says, standing up with Jihoon in his arms and puts a hand on your shoulder. You look up at him, wanting to say that it's okay, but he's faster.

,,Your feet hurt, right? Let me run you a bath, love," he says, putting Jihoon on his baby chair and whispering ,,Wait for daddy, okay?" Jimin places a quick kiss on his head. Then he bends down a bit and you feel one of his hand on the back of your knees.

,,I can walk Jimin, don't carry me," you retort, your weight making you a little insecure. Of course he doesn't listen to you and in one swift motion your in his arms. He naturally watched out not to discomfort you or the baby, while proceeding to lifting you in his arms. You hear Jihoon giggling behind you, entertained by the sight of his mommy getting carried by his daddy like a baby.

,,Your dad is so strong, Jihoonie," Jimin calls out while walking to the bathroom.

Jihoon only laughs more at that comment yelling a ,,Me too!"

,,You're saying I'm fat?" you ask hurt, swatting his chest.

,,No, no! Of course you're not fat, baby. I'm just playing with Jihoonie," he panics, looking worried and concerned, because he knows that your hormones are getting the better hand of you these days. But it weren't your hormones this time. You almost laugh at his panicked face, but you decide to hold it in and not try to sooth him. Maybe you just have a little demon inside you that likes teasing Jimin, but you think it's fine for all those times he used to tease you for something.

,,You better be," you mutter and feel his lips pressing a soft kiss on your cheek.

He slowly lets you slide of his hold and you sit on the closed toilet lid, watching him as he runs water into the tub. Jimin tests the temperature of the water and hums quietly when he is satisfied with it. Then he puts some liquid inside to create bubbles and a delicious smell.

,,No bath bombs this time, I have to buy some again," Jimin says and you only nod. The fact that he even noticed that there were no bath bombs left made you want to cry. Maybe now the hormones were actually kicking in.

,,Thank you," you answer, never missing a chance to thank him for his care and thoughtfulness he's showing every day.

Jimin turns around, a lovely smile already tugging at his lips and widening once he takes me into sight.

,,You need me to help you?" he asks carefully. You shake your head as an answer.

,,No, go and feed Jihoon, your mini-me is starving," you reply. Jimin rolls his eyes at your exaggeration.

,,My mini-me is not starving," he makes clear and his eyes soften at the cute nickname you both - actually you - created for your little baby boy. Jihoon has so many of Jimins features- his nose, his lips and his eye colour are just like Jimins. You both always said how you wanted tiny replications of both of you running around the house once you'd get married, but now that it actually happened, it's scary how a tiny Jimin waddles though the house, always giggling after he'd done something he'd surely wasn't allowed to do.

,,Mommy!", Jihoon exclaims in that moment and you raise a brow up.

,,Hurry up, he's waiting," you say, swaying both your hands to shoo him away.

,,He just yelled your name. Shouldn't I be the one he's missing after coming home from a meeting?", he pouts, but doesn't wait for an answer as he leaves the bathroom.

You smile at his question. Suddenly you feel the need to snuggle your little Jihoon in your arms since he shouted your name, because he's alone, but you have to take a little break from today and his daddy is on his way to him anyway.

,,Daddy's coming!", you hear Jimin shout and you start discarding your clothes on the floor.

,,No, want mommy!", Jihoon yells back and you start laughing.

Apparently Jihoon wasn't satisfied with anything he got today.

Haikyuu manager headcanons!!

Okay so these adorable teams all have the softest spot for their tiny little manager-chan, and here's how they all treat her.

[Ari's note: okay manager fics and headcanons are my absolute favourite and I love writing them]

*.` | Karasuno

They are extremely laid back with you, compared to some of the other teams. They give you your space, at the same time listen to you when you have something to say.

Respectful simps. Similar to how they act with Kiyoko (ugh yes queen-chan) they're in tears whenever you do things to motivate them, like cheer at their practice matches or give them good luck charms.

They still have the good luck charms you fastened on their bag before one of the matches.

Tanaka and Noya would literally worship the ground which you walked on. Like wow how did they get so lucky as to have three?? Cute managers?? On their team??

Yachi and you would probably subtly simp over Kiyoko with them too ngl.

Hinata and Kags would probably see you as an older sister, eventho you're their age because you're so caring and responsible.

Suga is literally your mom and Daichi is your dad. They make sure you're all healthy and you're doing well in school.

Asahi gives you hugs whenever you're sad or upset! Fite me but I think this gentle baby gives the best hugs ever >:( he's like your comfort senpai and you'd do the same for him, especially when he's feeling insecure or down.

Yams would probably be very shy around you, but he'll warm up in time.

Ahhh the best part. Tsukki! He'd find you annoying and simply not get why you're so Mcfreaking happy at first (shut up u salty beanpole, manager-chan is just a ray of sunshine, okay?) But he soon finds it endearing and slowly gets closer to you.

You walk home with Yams and Tsukki every day since your houses are close, and Tsukki walks you to your door to make sure you're safe!

Ennoshita, Kinoshita and Narita all see you as a little sister and often help you with your managerial duties.

The team cares and respects you so much, and are so thankful you've joined them!!

Meat buns at Ukai's are your hangout spot, and everytime you see them chilling you're so thankful to have such great friends.

*.` | Aoba Johsai

Aaah we're at the team of one of my favourite characters!! I'll start with Oikawa (can't you tell I'm so biased omg)

Oikawa absolutely adores manager-chan because although she's tiny, she's very strict, and doesn't let his fangirls near the gym when he's practicing, which he appreciates.

"yn-chan, you're so good to me, can I take you out as a thank-you?" Cue Iwa-chan's ball which comes flying at Oikawa's head. "Stop flirting with the manager, shitty-kawa"

Iwa's very fond of you too, but he doesn't let it show too often. Sometimes he picks up your favourite coffee from the vending machine and claims that he bought it by "accident". (How believable<3)

Kunimi probably sends you weird tiktok videos and tags you in funny memes. Very wholesome 10/10.

Kyotani just?? Doesn't understand you?? Like wow, she's small but the team listens to her?? Why?? He later finds out you're the manager. Mad dork here didn't know you were managing the team for the past month, and thought you just came to the gym to watch them practice. Smh.

Matsukawa and Hanamaki give you headpats and like taking selfies with you, much to Oikawa's dismay. He wants to be the only one taking pictures with you.

Like no manager-chan. Stop. Get away from them. My phone's right here I wanna take selfies with you :(

Kindaichi is cool with you. Y'all are bros and you game together sometimes.

Watari and Yahaba join too, and they're surprised to know that you're so aggressive when you game.

Cue a jealous Oikawa who struggles learning how to game just so he's invited to play with you. Simp smh.

They're all very gentle with you, and since you're their first female manager, they make sure to never make you feel uncomfortable.

You guys like grabbing ramen together and having eating contests. They really bring out your aggressive side but you love them for it.

*.` | Shiratorizawa

Can I just say Semi bsf material? Yes? Yes. Semi Eita is best friend material.

Makes you cute little Spotify playlists and you help him write lyrics to songs occasionally. You play an instrument too and you guys can just jam out for hours on end together.

You get the idea of applying to be the manager because of him, and it all took off from there.

Goshiki loves you. You're fond of your kohāi, and you genuinely just give this touch-starved future ace a lot of hugs and cuddles, which he's SO grateful for.

Like wow, y/n-chan isn't just pretty?? She's also so sweet? And smart? And capable? Semi why have you been hiding her for so long??¿ >:(

Goshiki is just so protective of you, he'd commit murder if he had to.

You have to earn Ushiwaka's respect, yk? And slowly but surely he comes to realise how dependable and responsible you are, and treats you like an indispensable member of the team.

He's got your back. And if he ever senses you're upset, he's trying to cheer you up as best as he can.

"do not feel upset, those grades will mean nothing to you in the future. I doubt you will be able to remember what you got in your second year, third monthly test." You think he's being sweet, and yes he is (in a way), but he's also trying to be reasonable and logical.

Tendo loosens you up and you tend to play pranks on the others with him.

The funniest was when you tried to prank Ushijima by adding wasabi to his onigiri and he?? Didn't get it??

Like "y/n-chan, Tendo, why did you add wasabi to this onigiri? It would've been so much better with tuna mayo??" And he has no reaction whatsoever?¿?

Cue Goshiki who tries the onigiri because he wants to prove he has spice tolerance like Ushijima, eventhough you can low-key see him tearing up.

Shirabu is your voice of reason and you and him often study together. You also have deep and philosophical conversations at 12 a.m. over text, and it is just so wholesome.

He respects you so much, not just because you care for him, but because he finds your brain so fricking smexy.

These eagle babies bring out the best in you and you're always eager to push them forward and bring out the best in them.

*.` | Fukurodani

First thing's first, besides Akaashi, you are the only other person who can cheer up an emo-mood Bokuto.

Just say "Hey Bo, you're gonna look so much cooler when you spike the ball like the true ace that you are" and his hair's all perking up and his eyes are shining.

Akaashi thinks you are an angel sent from heaven.

You're very soft on your baby owls, and they genuinely just love getting positive affirmations from you.

Akaashi always blushes when you compliment him on his sets. And you can hear him murmur genuine words of gratitude.

The other members do too. They're glad because sometimes people focus on Bo too much and forget to give them recognition, yk? It's easy to get overlooked :(

But thanks to manager-chan who's so attentive with all of them, and who's aware of all their quirks and moods, they're all so touched and so so happy.

You have a habit of getting cold pretty often, especially since practice finishes late and it's pretty chilly by then.

Konoha always lends you his jacket and walks you home, since your home's are the closest. There's just something about you that makes you soft.

You get along really well with Kaori and Yukie, and you'd definitely consider them your best friends, considering y'all are in this thang togetherrrr!!

The Fukurodani team are just all a bunch of crackheads, but they're your crackheads and you wouldn't trade them for the world.

You're a very tight-knit family, (like ugh I just get lots of comfortable, safe vibes from Fukurodani :(( <3)

You guys hang out at the store near your school pretty often to recharge after grueling days of practice together.

*.` | Nekoma

My second favourite team, Nekoma!! They are precious, gentle, soft babies and I love them to bits and pieces >:(

I'll start with Kuroo. You've always had a tiny soft spot for Kuroo ever since you've become his lab partner in chemistry class.

His notes are immaculate. I mean, cmon we're all hoes for pretty notes

You think he's so incredibly smart and talented, so when he suggests you become the Nekoma manager, you just agree right away.

You guys grow closer since you've started spending more time with him, and you banter around more often than not with chemistry pickup lines.

"hey kitten, let's form a covalent bond"

He's so whipped after you retort back. Like wow she called me sodium fine and said I'm like an exothermic reaction? Permission to simp??

(Ari stfu this isn't a Kuroo fanfic)

Kenma and you definitely play animal crossing together, and he even lets you try his switch, after you guys grow closer.

Kuroo is so insulted, he's never even touched Kenma's switch before >:(

You also push Kenma to do better during practice and he starts to care more about volleyball, since you seem so enthusiastic about it.

Yamamoto isn't even subtle about his simping smh T-T unlike Kuroo, he shamelessly flirts with you, and can't wait to show you off to Tanaka and Noya at the next camp.

"we have such a gorgeous manager now, Nekoma is ThRiViNg" he says in his head with this ridiculous dopey ass smile on his face +_+

Since deep down inside, you're a huge baby, you, Lev, Shibayama, and Inuoka get along so well. They're just happy energetic kittens, and they make you feel so happy.

y'alls energy just match, yk?

Although Fukunaga is shy to tell jokes, he tells them to you, because he knows you'd never judge him, and you actually kinda enjoy laughing along :) he's so touched.

Momma Yaku!! Yaku always lends you his jacket and makes sure to carry snacks for you in his bag. He knows you care so much about the team that you often neglect your own health, which is why he's always there to make you're feeling healthy and good.

Kai and Teshiro help you with your homework and like talking about their favourite singers with you.

They're all just such amazing human beings who treat you so well, and you feel so blessed to be a part of their team. You adore them so much, and they adore you back tenfold.

*.` | Inarizaki

[Ari's note: Ello there luvs, you've made it to the bottom of this sweet hc post and just get ready for Inarizaki :( they're my favourite team of all time, and I'm just so biased, I'm sorry ;-;]

Inarizaki's entire team just adores you so much, they think you're the light of their lives.

They're all super touch starved babies, and once you realized that, you've made sure to ensure they never feel that way.

Aran is kinda like your protective senpai, and his heart flutters ever so slightly when you call him that senpai kink oops and give him headpats, and he loves patting your head in return.

The twins are so incredibly soft for you.

Their fangirls are sometimes pretty mean, but one glare from the duo is enough to shut them up.

Osamu cooks bentos for you and gives you the warmest hugs when you ask for them, burying his head in the crook of your neck.

Your hand is almost always in Atsumu's because he's so slick?? Like y'all, this mf would be like "y/n-chan, my hand has been aching for a while now" and when you go to observe it, he just pulls your hand into his and pulls you to follow him.

His entire body heats up when you kiss his cheek after a particularly good game, and his brain literally goes "grrrr empty", when he's usually so sly.

The twins are your bodyguards, they follow you everywhere and protect you all the time.

Enter Suna Rintaro, your meme king. He definitely records funny moments that happen during practice and send them to you, just to make you laugh, or memes of the members.

He also definitely takes pictures of you when you aren't noticing, simply because he likes the way your hair looked, or because you looked so beautiful.

Like the twins, his eyes widen whenever you kiss his cheek or ruffle his hair, and it's literally like suna.exc has stopped functioning.

Congrats manager-chan, you broke the kid -.-

Omimi might come across as stoic and cold but he's actually a huge softie, and you often give him positive affirmations.

He's also definitely a huge lover of your hugs, and looks forward to them as motivation to play well.

He'd never tell you though, he's shy™.

My baby Kita compliments you all the fricking time.

"y/n-chan, I mean this is the most sincere way, I think this hairstyle looks stunning on you"

Or "you're so capable and you work so hard, I'm so thankful to have you by my side"

And he has the most genuine expression on his face, his eyes are so earnest and shining so bright.

And when you smile at him, he's like oh shit I made her smile, depression whom? I only know serotonin.

Ginjima is usually rash but with you, he takes his time and weighs everything he says.

He doesn't wanna accidentally hurt you and regret it since he was being careless and not thinking at all.

You calm him down when he's getting too hotheaded with gentle words and he's suddenly a blushing mess.

Unlike some of the other teams that tease you a bunch, Inarizaki treats you so gently. Their little princess, as they think of you.

So mf-ing protective, like if someone looks at you wrong, you can totally bet Atsumu's going for their ankles, sangwoo style, or Osamu is trash talking them to their knees.

Would drop anything and everything to help you if ever needed.

They think you're they're entire world because you go above and beyond for them, and they genuinely love you. Like actually LOVE you to bits and pieces.

[Ari's note: AHHH so the manager fic is done this was literally such a joy to write!! I hope you enjoyed it

Big big hugs <3 have a beautiful day, luvs!!]

[mewtonian-physics]

in light of recent anon events, please share random hcs about raiden. i barely know any people who are normal about him who don’t ship him with weirdos

yeah u have nothing to worry about from me on that count that's for sure <- doesn't even ship him hypothetically, much less in canon

i think 'normal' might be the wrong word to use when it comes to my feelings about him though /smacked for being silly, don't worry i know what you mean

let's see, let's see! headcanons about raiden... hell yeah i can do that

his favorite color is blue

he loves wearing coats and jackets and things like that (shout out to the mgs4 coat)

he's agender but doesn't have a name for it or even really fully have a grasp on it. bit much going on in his life for him to really sit down and think about his relationship with gender. if he did though.

if he knew he could go by different pronouns he'd go in for he/they 100% but he does not know that

he's bi (not a vampire though :p) but doesn't really... do anything about it bc while the way he grew up left him pretty touch-starved (someone hug him) it also managed to leave him extremely touch-averse + his own body horrifies him (it's the bar codes and all that) so that's kind of just an area he doesn't tend to go into. it took a full year before he finally managed to convince himself to do anything with rose and even then it wasn't the most pleasant experience for him. (i could go so much into my thoughts on this because considering how many people sexualize him to hell and back i've unfortunately had the topic put on my mind many times but like. suffice to say conditions do not improve)

like i said previously though he's also very touch-starved on account of getting like zero affection growing up except for the weird fucked up pseudo-familial nightmare that is solidus. so he needs hugs, really. unfortunately he has so few decent people in his life to give him any. but really the man could just use some platonic physical affection because that's the easiest kind for him to accept. romantic is a bit odd but he can deal... anything beyond that is uncomfortable and unpleasant. what i'm saying is SOMEONE GIVE THIS MAN A HUG.

speaking of hugs! sunny and john get SO many of them. Like hes adorable about it in the mgs4 ending hes just like oh my god i have a son. must hug him forever. it's the cutest thing and i KNOW it sticks around i know it. he will just pick john up and carry him around at random (john LOVES it) and sunny gets at least one big hug (usually more) every time they meet (outside of emergency situations like in revengeance). it makes him happy and it makes them happy and on the worse days it helps ground him a bit, reminds him that he's real and safe and so are they

solidus did in fact name him after big boss

speaking of solidus, look at him. now look at old snake. now back to solidus. now back to old snake. just another of the many reasons raiden is so fucked up in mgs4

man is he bad at math

okay, he's not bad at it per se, at least not until it starts getting into imaginary numbers and such. he has a hard time wrapping his head around those. (does anyone not? genuine question.) i just wanted to make a guide to troubled raidens joke.

kind of iatrophobic (gee i wonder why)

can't smile for photos to save his life, it has to be genuine

that hairclip sunny has in revengeance? he gave it to her. he saw it and it reminded him of his very excellent little sister, so. present time

hope u enjoyed this round of raiden headcanons, tune in next time for who the hell knows what

"You know what you gotta do man, you gotta just go up to her, you know, and you gotta just." Jordan smacked his hands together dramatically, pointing to his sister who was across the way laughing with a friend. "I don't know man." Brad took a long drag of his cigarette, staring at (Y/n). "Are you kidding me?" Jordan laughed while smacking Brad's shoulder dramatically, making Brad laugh a little. "I mean look at her. That woman is a fucking Goddess among men." Brad exclaimed making Jordan laugh. "Come on man, she'll adore you." Jordan reasoned before hollering to his sister. "(Y/n)!" She turned her attention to her older brother upon hearing her name. "Come here." He waved her over, smiling when she complied. "Come on man." Brad chuckled bitterly shaking his head. "What can I do for you Jordan?" (Y/n) rested her hand on her hip, the sun behind her giving her an angelic glow in her white bikini, with gold chains adorning her curves. "I'll tell you what you can do for me, you can park your pretty little ass on my friend here's face and give him the ride of his life." Jordan laughed when she rolled her eyes at him. "Fucking hell." Brad hissed under his breath, thinking she'd never give him the time of day now. To his surprise however she moved to stand in front of him, looking him over before taking a seat across his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Oh hey there." He murmured with a grin tugging at his lips. "Is that what you want baby? You want me to sit on your face?" (Y/n) asked sweetly while tracing his jaw with her fingers. "More than anything." Brad admitted, ignoring the excited laughter coming from Jordan. "Well you'll have to work for it handsome, because unlike my brother will have you believing, I'm not a slut." She hissed the last word before standing from Brad's lap, strutting away with more sway in her hips than usual. "She likes you, normally she'd have tried killin' us both for a comment like that." Jordan smiled at his friend, who looked almost crushed. "She doesn't even know who I am." Brad frowned before taking a heavy drag of his cigarette. "Oh she knows who you are, she asks about you everytime she sees you." Jordan laughed as he lit himself a new cigarette.

---A few hours later---

Walking upstairs Brad rubbed the back of his neck tiredly. "Where you off to cowboy?" (Y/n)'s voice sliced through the music filled air with ease. "Looking for a vacant bathroom." Brad smiled with a chuckle. "Come with me, I've got a room here with a private bathroom." She waved for him to follow, her crimson gown hypnotizing Brad as he followed her closely. "Lock and key." She held up a small key before unlocking her rooms door. "Smart." Brad chuckled as he followed her into the room. "Nice room." He commented as he looked over the extravagant room. "Yeah Jordan likes spoiling me." (Y/n) sighed with boredom. "You don't like being spoiled?" Brad asked with a playful glint in his eyes. "I like being spoiled, but I wanna be spoiled by my man, not my brother." (Y/n) explained with a small grin. "So what your man broke?" Brad asked a little worried she was taken. "Gotta have a man first sweetie, the bathrooms over there." (Y/n) pointed to the bathroom, Brad grinned as he walked to the bathroom, pleased to know she was single.

When Brad exited the bathroom he froze in his tracks, watching as (Y/n) unzipped her gown, letting it to pool at her feet. "So Brad tell me, do you want me to give you the ride of your life?" (Y/n) kept her back to him, teasing him with her black lace bra and pantie set. "Fuck yes." Brad breathed out licking his lips. "I don't do this normally, but I've been watching you for some time now. And I'm so sexually frustrated right now, I don't wanna wait until date four." (Y/n) explained, beckoning him to her. "I won't think any less of you angle." Brad promised as he took ahold of her hips. "Good." She smiled before pulling him down for a heated kiss, moaning into his mouth when he squeezed her ass firmly. "Now get your ass on the bed handsome." She murmured as they pulled apart, playfully smacking his ass. "Yes ma'am." Brad smiled before doing as she said, making himself comfortable on her king size bed. "Remove that pesky shirt of yours for me." (Y/n) insisted as she crawled onto the bed, straddling Brad's thick thighs. Quickly Brad sat up and stripped himself of his shirt, making (Y/n) giggle softly, finding his eagerness incredibly hot. "Mmm look at that." (Y/n) hummed as she stroked her hands up and down his firm chest. "I can't wait to see what you've got waiting for me in here." She mused as she unbuckled his pants. "I thought you were gonna feed me." Brad smiled up at her. "Oh I will, but I'm gonna have some fun first." (Y/n) smiled as she pulled his rock hard cock out of his pants. "Fuck that's beautiful." She murmured at the sight of him, licking her lips as she began stroking him slowly. "I'm glad you like him." Brad sighed heavily when she started dragging her tongue up the underside of his cock. "He's perfect." She smiled up at him before taking him into her mouth, and easing him down her throat slowly. "Fuck." Brad hissed, his head falling back into the pillows. "Just like that baby." Brad praised her, tangling his fingers into her hair. "Fuck you're so hot." Brad continued, as (Y/n) bobbed her head along his shaft. With a moan she eased him out of her mouth, releasing the head of his cock with an audible pop. "Delicious." She winked before climbing up the rest of his body, hovering her cunt right over his face. "Ready for me baby?" She looked down at him, wiggling her hips, teasing him. "I'm starving." Brad growled as he pulled her hips down, licking and nipping at her clothed pussy feverishly. "Ah!" (Y/n) cried out followed my a long moan. "More Brad please." She whined with need, laughing with excitement when he proceeded to tear her panties apart. "Fuck yes!" She bucked her hips as he began feasting on her, leaning forward she began kissing and licking along Brad's stomach, inching closer and closer to his cock. Greedily Brad pushed his tongue deep into her needy cunt, this goatee rubbing against her clit deliciously. "God yes!" (Y/n) cried out blissfully, kissing sloppily along his throbbing shaft. Brad growled against her soaked folds, as she began sucking him off again. (Y/n) bucked her hips softly as her orgasm approached quickly, moaning against his cock as he sent her over the edge.

Pulling him out of her mouth (Y/n) began rocking her hips, drawing out her high as Brad continued to feast on her. "FUCK!" She cried out, the muscles in her stomach contracting almost painfully as he lapped at her overstimulated cunt. "Brad!" She cried resting her hands against his hips, she applied most of her weight forward, attempting to pull away from the greedy man. Brad growled as he took a tight hold of her hips, pulling her back into place as he continued to eat her out. "Oh god I can't!" She cried out as a second orgasm washed over her without warning. "Ah!" She practically screamed as the most intense orgasm surged through her body. "(Y/n) are you okay?" Jordan barged into her room, quickly closing the door when he realized what he was looking at. "Oh my god." (Y/n) panted heavily while Brad licked at her lazily. "Oh my god." She repeated softly when Brad released her hips, allowing her to crawl away. "Holy fuck." She chuckled breathily, as Brad pulled her to lay back, swapping places with her, he made himself comfortable between her legs. "How was that angel?" Brad asked as he brushed back her hair. "I can't feel my legs." She giggled pulling him down for a kiss, moaning when he began sinking his cock into her still aching cunt. "Think you can cum one more time for me angel?" Brad asked as he bottomed out in her. "I'll cum as many times as you want me to daddy." She grinned up at him, the nickname sparking a fire within Brad. "Good girl." He growled as he began thrusting into her vigorously, causing the headboard to bang against the wall with each powerful thrust. "Fuck yes daddy!" (Y/n) cried out, clawing at Brads back, encouraging him to fuck her a bit faster. The bed squeaked, the headboard banged against the wall, (Y/n) was a moaning mess, along with Brands grunting and the obscene sound of his balls slapping against (Y/n)'s ass filled the room. "Shit!" Brad growled as he buried his face into (Y/n)'s neck biting at her skin, as he hiked her legs up onto his hips, allowing him to fuck into her even deeper. "Brad!" (Y/n) chanted his name like a prayer, over and over his name passed her lips, fueling his desire to fill her with his seed. "Don't stop." She begged before pulling him into a needy kiss, thrusting her hips up to meet his erratic thrusts in perfect tune. "Cum for me angel." Brad panted against her lips, as her cunt began constricting his throbbing cock. "Yes daddy." She huffed in pure ecstasy, her eyes rolling back as she came for the third time that night. "Just like that baby." Brad groaned as he to came undone, pumping his seed deep into her womb. "Fuck yes." He panted has he continued rutting into her, wanting to pump every last drop into her. "I should have jumped your bones sooner." (Y/n) panted with a chuckle, sighing when Brad pulled out of her and laid beside her. "You're mine now angel." Brad stated as he pulled her to lay against his chest. "Yes daddy." She smiled up at him, giggling when he playfully spanked her ass. "I'm gonna make sure you can't walk tomorrow." Brad warned as he pulled her into a kiss, kneading her ass in his hand. "Good." She hummed against his lips, the both of them grinning like sinners.

[crossdressingdeath]

You are being a bit too hard on JYL. While she wasn't a perfect sister, she was also a victim to her parents dysfunctional relationship and she was only 2 years older than the boys. She was a poor cultivator and had a very weak constitution. She also had no political power despite her high birth. I'm pretty sure she never got any apologies for any of the slights against her character and on the pheonix mountain scene doesn't Jin Zixun storm off and then madam jin completely dismisses the situation as JYL being silly? Madam Jin loves JYL but I would say she doesn't respect her. JGS doesn't respect Madam Jin either so even if JYL went to her, nothing would be done. However JZXuan does invite WWX genuinely so I would say JYL was trying to improve WWX's situation as much as she could. As for not giving any financial support, she was completely dependent on JC and then the Jins, so I dont see how she could have helped there. Also I could totally see JC selling JYL to the Jins to appease JGS so she could be used as a political hostage against WWX.

Some points, in no particular order: First off, Madam Jin for sure respects JYL. Yeah, she dismisses JZXun insulting WWX (that’s important; he’s insulting WWX, a glorified servant, not JYL) because WWX is just a servant, but when JYL says that this isn’t a minor thing to her Madam Jin orders JZXun to apologise. To a servant. To appease JYL. That suggests the opposite of what you’re saying; it suggests that Madam Jin adores and respects JYL enough that she’ll force her family to lower themselves to the level of a man viewed by the Jins as a servant for her sake. And if she’s prepared to do that, maybe she could be convinced to do other things! Like... I don’t know, send servants to buy some food at market that can then be sent to Yiling? Or, alternately, JYL could ask the adoring husband who will give her anything she wants for money which she could then send to Yiling. And if she doesn’t trust anyone from Lanling (or Yunmeng; if she can ask JC to bring her to Yiling she can ask him to deliver some money) enough to think they could be persuaded to help her out with this, including the brother who she knows knows the Wens and WWX are innocent, then that raises a whole bunch of other questions about things like why the fuck she trusted anything the Jiangs and Jins said about WWX.

In fact, that’s kind of the issue here. Everything about her being dependant on JC and then the Jins raises an important question: if she, as she seems to, doesn’t doubt that JC and the Jins are being honest in their dealings with WWX... then why doesn’t she ask them to help him? Why doesn’t she even try? She goes to the Burial Mounds with JC and sees how badly things are going for WWX... and doesn’t feel the need to question whatever story JC gave her about what WWX was doing?

See, that’s the problem at the end of the day. It’s not about whether JYL could have done anything (although I’d say she could’ve done more than she did), it’s about whether or not she tried. Which... there’s no evidence she did. She brings WWX soup one time, but there’s no evidence that she tried to send him and his people actual supplies, or the means to acquire those supplies on their own. She convinces JZX to invite WWX to JL’s one month anniversary, but JZX is still assuming that WWX is the aggressor even though at least in CQL JYL knows for a fact he’s not and should have told him that. She shows up in her fucking wedding dress talking about her approaching marriage to the son of the man who’s in the process of ruining WWX’s life and there isn’t a single word that implies she’s at all unhappy with this situation; while I did say that JC could have forced her to marry JZX against her will there is no evidence that that was in fact the case and it looks more like he was just doing what she wanted him to. (Honestly the wedding dress thing in general is like... on the surface it’s a sweet gesture, and I’m sure that’s what she meant it as, but if you think about it her showing up in the dress WWX won’t be able to see her get married in to give him enough soup to keep a couple people fed for maybe a day when he’s got fifty starving civilians up that mountain and let him name the nephew he’s never going to get to meet and talk about her marriage into the family that’s currently running a massive smear campaign to get WWX killed and then leaving and as far as we see never trying to help him after that beyond wrangling him an invite to an event that clearly no one wants him at besides her is such a slap in the face whether that was intentional on her part or not that I’m surprised it doesn’t get talked about more.)

Look, JYL may be a woman in a patriarchal society and a weak cultivator, but it does not follow that she has no power. Or that no one respects her or is willing to apologise to her for slights against her, for that matter. She’s the sister of a sect leader. The wife of a sect heir. Even if she failed to actually achieve anything, the fact is that her lack of suspicion towards her family (by birth and marriage) and their actions in regards to WWX’s situation makes it pretty obvious to me that either she asked them to help or look further into the matter and didn’t feel the need to question why the only person willing to so much as make an attempt was her husband... or she didn’t ask at all. And the latter seems more likely, given how we see her react to conflict between her brothers; it’s “boys will be boys” and “they’re just teasing, they’re as bad as each other” all the way down, even when JC is threatening WWX with his literal worst fear or telling him that the children of servants will never amount to anything. JYL will defend WWX from outsiders, but the second he’s being targeted by JC she just decides everything’s fine. Maybe she really couldn’t have helped him! Maybe bringing him a bowl of soup and pretending everything was fine really was all she could do! But given there’s no mention either from her or from the narration itself that she so much as tried to do more... Well, it raises questions, and the fact that those questions are never brought up in this fandom means that I perhaps feel the need to be a little firmer on this point than I might be otherwise.

Review: Down With Love (2010)

I felt a little nostalgic this week and decided to rewatch Down With Love, a romcom out of Taiwan featuring Ella Chen (from Hana Kimi) and Jerry Yan (Meteor Garden).

This is more of a brain dump as opposed to a real review. More below the cut.

Let me just start with the fact I love dramas with tomboys, gender benders, and gender non-conforming women and girls in general. I'm a 40 yr old gnc bi-woman, so some of these storylines really resonate with me - despite the trend of making those female characters glaringly stupid and pitiable.

Tags: Nanny, Love Square, Tomboy, Male Chases Female First, Sismance, Rich Man/Poor Woman, Pretends To Be Gay, Single Parent, Sisterhood, Boss/Employee Relationship

Our girl Ella Chen plays tomboy Yang Guo. Yang Guo works, has friends, and a shitty boyfriend of 5 years. She acts naïve, but she actually has a lot of life experience due to a *tragic backstory*. After her mother died, her father ruined the family business. Their family plunged from riches to rags and their father abandoned them. Yang Guo is 6 when this happens and it falls on her older sister Yang Duo to raise them both while homeless, starving, and navigating the homeless camps in the parks of Taipei.

Yang Duo (Kelly Huang) has raised her little sister by herself, beginning from poverty and homelessness to having a house and making a life for themselves. They bicker good-naturedly, but Yang Duo is very protective and supportive of her sister. She's managed to earn a job at a prestigious law firm as an admin assistant with strong accounting skills. She is seen as frugal, clever, and competent. Several characters make comments throughout the series about how it was a shame that she didn't go into certain careers because she's so accomplished despite not having a formal education. It's obvious that Yang Duo has put her own dreams and happiness on hold to make sure that she and Guo have financial security. Yang Duo is my favorite character btw. She is a supporting character that is multi-faceted and has her own character arc. I really like seeing her growth in this drama, and she gets some cute side couple action later in the series. Skip the last episode.

Due to growing up in poverty and scrabbling to lower-middle-class, the two girls work nonstop. After Guo is fired from her job waiting tables, Duo gets Guo a job as a nanny for her boss Xiang Yu Ping by lying and saying Guo is a lesbian.

Xiang Yu Ping (Jerry Yan) owns his own law firm and is seen as cold and overbearing. He is raising his dead brother's kids and none of the nannies he's hired have lasted either due to being chased off by the kids (a la the Sound of Music) or by trying to seduce him because he's a rich handsome lawyer. Relieved to have found a nanny who definitely wouldn't seduce him (because he thinks she's a lesbian), he just pays an unreasonably huge salary to keep her there with the kids despite their abuse.

Supporting characters: Amanda Chu as the best friend Yan Ling with the messy dating life is also delightful, but I've enjoyed all her roles. I may rewatch Lion Pride for her, now that I'm walking down memory lane. The office of 'just some lawyer dudes being dudes' are funny. I love when they gather around to watch drama and place bets on what's happening. They're also slackers. I would love/hate to work with them.

So that's the setup.

Honestly, I hate the 'pretends to be gay' plots. It's typically really offensive and this was no exception in a lot of places. (It's not at the same level as Personal Taste, but it's bad.) One of the cases Yu Ping takes on is unlawful termination and blackmail of a gay teacher and he asks for Yang Guo's advice to help the man. Taiwan was trying in 2010, but it wasn't exactly good representation to have a fake lesbian help an actual gay man faced with employment discrimination and blackmail over his orientation. When I compare this with Love is Science (2021 twdrama) that has two out lgbt characters employed in their office with significant roles, I'm just so happy that lgbtq media representation is still progressing.

I don't care about Yu Ping's best friend Qi Ke Zhong or Yu Ping's ex-girlfriend Ding Hui Fan because they're both terrible people that don't deserve forgiveness and their only purpose was to drag out our leads getting together. Since this was a rewatch, I knew how much I hated their scenes and skipped them as much as I could. You're not missing anything. Someone on YT needs to just make a Yang Duo/Xiang Yu Ping cut, tbh. Also? Go ahead and skip the deadbeat father.

The nanny bit only lasts three episodes (the kids are adorable), but it's long enough for Yu Ping to catch feelings and think his lesbian nanny is cute. He actually is not cold and overbearing as episode 1 makes him out to be. Yu Ping is supportive and tries to be a good friend to Guo. When he thinks her 'girlfriend' is cheating on her, he absolutely flips out because he feels she deserves to be respected and loved in her relationship. He learns about her family. He learns about her friends. He knows where to look for her when she's upset. He knows how to cheer her up and later, he knows how to make the perfect date. When he finds out she lied about being a lesbian, he's not even mad. He admits it was his fault for making certain demands in the employment contract. He's just upset that he's lost chances to flirt and court her.

Listen. It's a dumb premise in this drama and the misunderstandings suck. But it's so refreshing to see male leads be decent to women that are romantically and sexually unavailable to them. The bar is so low, in RL and in dramas, that Yu Ping belongs in the top tier of male drama leads. This dude was just going to continue in a supportive friendship for an undetermined time, both when he thought she was a lesbian and later when his shitty weasel of a best friend dated her under false pretenses. He didn't burden her with a confession until her relationship was over. And whenever she asked for space, he gave it to her. And when she confronted him on instances of jealously, he apologized and gave her space.

Yu Ping never tries to change Guo. He doesn't give her a makeover. She has a makeover scene that is instigated by another character and all he does is try to make her comfortable when she's so obviously uncomfortable. Then he cheers inwardly when he sees her overcome her awkwardness and have confidence. But by the end of the drama, she is still dressing and acting the same as in act 1. It honestly reminded me a little of Coffee Prince in that the fancy male lead is still just as enamored with his gnc woman by the end and the way she presents herself doesn't have an effect on their romantic relationship. Again, this is content catered to me as a bi & gnc woman in a relationship with a cis-het man. I often am mistaken for a man when I go out with my spouse and he's still super into me so let's normalize gnc people with gc people already it's 2021.

Anyway, if you watch romances for kisses, there's really only a couple of pecks and one nice passionate kiss and they're all in basically the last 3 eps of the series.

The last episode sucks. Stop at episode 15. Seriously. Don't watch episode 16. Why oh why do you let terrible people back in your life? Qi Ke Zhong and Ding Hui Fan are toxic and should but cut out of their lives. The end of ep 15 had a happy ending with a family-style breakfast for our two sisters with their boyfriends. Ep 16 threw in some more misunderstanding, jealousy, and separations followed by a time skip for no reason and brought back my two least favorite characters.

Anyway, I will live in my little world with Yang Duo and her sweet lawyer boyfriend Liang Zhi Hao (Ian Yim/Cyran Yan/Yan Yi En yeah, this actor has three stage names) that supports her interests and self-determination while they save money on mass transit by using his motorbike. And they build her dream home that she designs. Perhaps they put aside funds for her to pursue a degree in what she's passionate about.

[beelshamburger]

I have been waiting for the moment that you say matchups are welcome aaaa!!! *squeals*

sorry if it's a bit long. I get talkative when someone wants to talk to me lmao.

also, english isn't my first language, so sorry if it's hard to understand, my vocab isn't very wide.

I am a shy person! but sometimes, if it's necessary, I can be sociable, I think? I'm not an introvert, but I'm not an extrovert either, so- ambivert ig

I'm awkward around people, even my own family. I wish I had a cool friend squad, but alas, I do not :(

I am very affectionate! I just want everyone to feel appreciated, and loved, but I think sometimes I act too nice to someone, and end up being annoying. maybe that's why I don't have any close friends.

I like watching anime/movies. genre would be romance, or comedy, or maybe slice of life, with a hint of drama in it. I also like reading, with the same genre.

I'm an animal lover! Unfortunately, I don't have a dog or a cat, or any pet (I have a fish, but c'mon? I can't cuddle that). That sucks :(

I hate loud and rude people, they just get on my nerves. But then I find myself being loud and rude too, and- I don't know how to feel about that.

I hate thiller and horror movies/books/tv shows. They freak me out, and I won't be able to sleep unless I'm hugged by someone, which is rare, so I don't sleep at all after watching something with horror in it. I won't hide the fact that I'm scared though, please just hug me 🥺

I look for patience and support in a relationship. I am a very, very, VERY emotional person, and I cry A LOT. And you know when you cry, and someone gets angry and tells you to stop crying, but it only fuels the tears? yeah, that happens a LOT with me, so I need someone who won't do that.

A listener too! I have a lot to talk about, all the feelings and stuff, but I've never had anyone I can talk too; no close friends, no way I can talk to my sister, or my family, because I know that their response can hurt my soul.

Someone who can just love me for me, I guess. Oof, that sound so clichè.

My perfect date? Haven't really thought much about it. For starters, a library/cafe would be nice. No casinos, or bars, and that stuff, cause I don't drink. Or gamble. Also, with someone who doesn't make me feel uncomfortable or awkward.

Maybe an aquarium would be cool. Or an amusement park? But, heads up, I don't like chocolate. Crazy right? Yeah, I get a lot of wierd comments for it from my family, but I don't like chocolate. So- don't bring me chocolate. Best bet is to just bring some chips or something.

My giving + receiving love language is physical touch and quality time. I love spending time with people I care about, where we can talk for hours and hours about anything and everything. Or cuddling and occasional kisses while watching a movie, or reading a book. That would be nice.

I think I'm done? I hope you got enough info :3 thank you if you decide to do this, and I don't mind waiting for an answer! take your time, I'm sure I'll love it! bye <3

- 🥞✨ -

Aww omg nonny just know you are loved aight~

ALSO NO CHOCOLATE OMG HOW DO YOU DO THAT (I am sorry as a chocolate lover it's jusr- holy crap OML H O W I LITERALLY cannot live without chocolate i would DIE AJSJSHSH)

And this was perfect, this is what I need when I make matchups or else I won't really be able to know who to match you up with ahshd

The love language thing? YES! THAT IS PERFECT AND JUST WHAT I NEED, NONNY YOU ARE AN EXEMPLAR CITIZEN AND I LOVE YOU THANK YOU!!

I hope I did a good job ;;;;

Now for the matchup!

I match you up with....(drum roll please....)

.

LEVIATHAN!!!!

You two immediately became friends, anime always brings people together ( ꈍᴗꈍ)

He fell for you pretty quickly, since you would always assure him he was doing great and you were just SO N I C E HOW WERE YOU SO PERFECT AND WHY WERE YOU NICE TO HIM? HE DIDN'T DESERVE IT (omg no honey yes you do holy shit T^T)

Now, you both took a while to get together since the two go you were just so ✨ akward ✨ with each other. Even if you sometimes took the lead, you'd end up blushing and making an excuse to go away after accidentally flirting or something like that. You only got together after Asmodeus threatened to ask you out and Levi got jealous, grabbing your hand and leading you to his room, telling his little brother that you were already busy since you had plans with him.

That evening you two sat on his couch, watching the new episode of an anime the two of you had started watching together. It was a bit awkward, since the two of you were blushing messes at the thought of "omg we're on a date."

That day, Leviathan couldn't help but look at you, instead of the anime. He had no idea what was going on, except that you looked stunningly beautiful.

For some reason, the anime began to take a thriller aspect, the two of you didn't really know it was HORROR! Still, Leviathan didn't want to say anything, and you were afraid to speak up in case he was really into the anime.

So now you two were scared shitless, watching something you didn't want to watch and in an awkward position.

At one point there was this jumpscare, and you let out a shriek, which scared Leviathan, which scared you and made you scream even more, which made you both fall off the couch in top of each other.

Leviathan couldn't help but blush as he looked at you in top of him. And before you could get off, he took a deep breath and mustered up all the courage he had and kissed you. You gasped against his lips but then kissed him back.

Afterwards you became a couple (finally!)

Your dates always consist of going to aquariums (the only place he can stand to go to) or watching your favorite anime movies in his room. Since you started dating, you began hugging, touching him more. And that? That made Leviathan absolutely crazy. Listen this boy is absolutely touch starved, so you know once he gets a bit of it, he's going to become as greedy as Mammon and ask for more.

He of course hugs you back too, at first it was hesitant and shy, but eventually he became more confident in touching you all the time. He will ask you for cuddles and kisses all the time!

Whenever you cry Levi will be there for you. The first few times he was a mess because he didn't know what to do, and he was afraid of messing up. He distanced himself, mostly because he thought it was his fault and that you were mad at him, and that made you feel even worse. When he found out he immediately came running to your room and for the first time ever, yelled "I LOVE YOU"

That night you spent it in each other's arms, cuddling. If you ever feel sad he will immediately stop what he's doing and listen to you, and after wards will spoil you so much (in a cute tsundere way hehe) if you need cuddles, he's there to give you cuddles. If you want kisses, he'll give you kisses. You want to watch your favorite movie for the 17th time in a row? He's got the popcorn ready.

He will listen to you and tell you that no matter what, he'll always be there for you, and then he'll tell you how much he loves you.

Sometimes while you're doing your anime dates he will suddenly grab you and kiss you, a flushed look on his face afterwards.

Honeslty, this man is just crazy for you, and he would literally do anything you ask him to! Your relationship is always filled with encouraging words, the two of you always cheering for each other!

His brothers are honeslty a bit jealous of your relationship (lmao poor boys) since they always see you two being so cute and adorable, cheering each other up!

Hi! I saw you had request open, so I was wondering if you could write Bucky reacting to overhearing someone tell his starving artist friend that their work doesn't mean anything? It can be in head canon style or an actual fic, whichever you prefer. Thank you!

The Artist and the Baker

Pairing: baker!Bucky x artist!Reader

Word Count: 2601 words

Warnings: This is fluff. Mutual pining, that sorta thing, guys.

A/N: I honestly really love this request especially with everything going on. I think it’s very common for people to take artists and creators for granted and I have certainly been on the receiving end of that treatment. 

I hope you like this. It was fun to make, but I’m sorry if it wasn’t quite what you were looking for.

-.-.-.-

Becca’s Needs for the Soul – a two story creation that was well-loved and adored by anyone who passed through the splatter painted door. Most people never understood the name, not even her brother, Bucky. Until Rebecca asked him to co-own and start working at the establishment. His little sister, always full of dramatics, had created something for everybody.

It was a coffee shop and a bakery.

A bookstore and a gallery.

They even had nights where people came in to perform music, standup, anything the heart desired. There were other days where artists from around would come and paint, sometimes provide lessons for kids, and other days there was simply nothing but quiet.

It took no time for Rebecca’s little hole in the wall to become one of the community’s favorites. Especially when her brother and his two friends came on. They had gotten it down to a science really.

Rebecca would come in, organizing the bookstore, managing everything behind the scenes, and setting up any special events that would come up. Whenever it was time to decorate the store for holidays? Or even something seasonal that came to mind? She spent even more time out with the customers instead of behind the scenes.

And when she brought in her brother and two hunks to keep people company? It was a genius plan on her part. Especially when female customers spiked. But she would never admit that maybe that had been a smidgen of the plan all along. No, her real reasoning was for the boys. They needed something simple after returning from their second and final tour.

So she stuck two of them behind the counter. Her older brother often spent most days tucked back in the kitchen creating God knows what, but it always smelled wonderful. Any time he came out of his little hole, it was usually to help man the register while Sam slacked because he was flirting with too many customers.

But that was to be expected when Sam was the coffee guy. He was always creating new Holiday specials, deciding the best coffee beans for purchase, and trying something different. No one ever knew what it would be, but normally the smell of coffee and something filled the store.

And Steve? Well, he was one of the store’s more popular artists. He didn’t “officially” work for them, but he spent enough time there where people started nicknaming him the “curator”. He was the one who usually brought in new artists.

That was how Y/N had become part of their little group.

She was a photographer, but Bucky would always say it was more than that. For those who hired her, she found a way to make sure they were comfortable in front of the camera. Y/N always said she understood being nervous because of her own curvy figure, but Bucky just saw how she glowed. And her work that she put here? It wasn’t just portraits or landscapes. She had a way of combining paint and photos to create a way of reminding the world that imagination and reality were always linked. While Sam and Steve teased her for focusing on events to pay the bills, Bucky was the one who asked about which works she had planned.

With a smile and paint in her hair or staining her nails, she would tell him. Her eyes would sparkle with excitement that could only come from being an artist. She was so animated with her words, hands flying about and often looking like she belonged in some sort of cartoon. Her cheeks would always flush when she would realize how fast she was talking or how much louder she spoke.

But he never minded.

He liked having a friend who got so excited about her work. It was a different sort of excitement than Steve. The blonde was always smiling and had that same spark, but he was infinitely calmer compared to Y/N. Their artwork matched their personalities. Steve’s were extravagant and beautiful pencil sketches of people – raw and honest and revealing something that no one else could see but him. Y/N’s were stunning and extraordinary paint and photos – raw in a way that reminded the world to see what they were missing.

Their creations often balanced the walls of Rebecca’s shop. At least they did during the times Steve’s work wasn’t flying off the walls. It was that popularity that had him drawing at the shop. He often invited Y/N, telling her that people not only wanted to buy their work, but they wanted to watch their creativity.

Still, her best work came from the privacy of her own home.

Every week she brought in something new. Something special.

And today was no different.

The rules for artists selling their work were simple. They decided the prices. They worked the transactions. The shop itself provided a place to see the work, but took no percentage. They didn’t interfere.

These were unspoken rules that everyone managed to follow because…well, it made sense.

Until this guy – arrogant and irritating and looking to buy art. Sam had nicknamed him “Sweater vest.”

He had come in like any other day, ordering some tea before complaining that it was “too hot” and “too watered down”. It made Sam’s blood boil not because it was a complaint, but because it was the same order and same complaint every time. And every time, it was those complaints that kept him from tipping anything.

Even if he finished his tea and stuck around for a couple hours every damn time, admiring the artwork, fingering through books, but never buying anything other than his “not good enough” tea.

Sam’s too-big smile was still in place as he watched Sweater vest take a seat next to Y/N’s newest work. Both men glanced at the painting, but for entirely different reasons. Sam did because he couldn’t wait for Bucky to see it. Sweater vest did because today was going to be his first official purchase. And Sam hated that the artwork on the wall had to go to -

“Sweater vest is back.” Sam spat as the kitchen door closed behind him.

Bucky looked up, setting down the dozen cookies that had just come out of the oven. He knew exactly which customer Sam was griping about, always finding it entertaining that someone had managed to get under his skin. “And?”

“And he’s buying Y/N’s new painting,” Sam harrumphed, leaning against the nearest counter as Bucky started decorating a cake.

Bucky paused when he heard that, cursing when he messed up the piping. Setting the instrument aside, he carefully wiped away his mistake and glanced at Sam. Oh, he wanted to wipe that smug smirk off his face. “You’re point?”

“Nothing. I’m just surprised you haven’t gone and looked at it yet.”

“I’ve been a little busy,” Bucky said, gesturing to the creations that covered the counters.

Sam bit his tongue, barely able to hide his laugh. So that’s why there was so much flour on Bucky’s cheeks and in his hair. “Trade ya.”

“Your hands are too shaky. You’d screw these up.”

Sam rolled his eyes. “Fine, whatever, but – “

Sam’s sentence died on his lips when he heard shouting coming from the front. Bucky glanced up, ears recognizing Y/N’s voice. The two men shared a look, muttering, “Sweater vest,” before rushing out of the kitchen.

Y/N’s new painting was off the wall and at her feet, tucked behind her as if she was a mama bear protecting her cub. They’d never seen Y/N angry before. Passionate, sure, but never angry. Anger was something she never seemed to reach.

Until today.

“The painting is decent, but it doesn’t mean anything. And I’m not paying three hundred bucks for something that has no meaning.”

“Then why the fuck did you waste my time asking about it?”

“Because I thought you would come to your senses and accept a more reasonable offer.”

“And what do you think would be a reasonable offer?”

“Fifty sounds more than reasonable. And I would be doing you a favor with my connections.”

“Fifty bucks and exposure?”

Bucky and Sam moved fast, knowing that tone of venom and irritation. Sam grabbed the painting, moving it out of the way as Y/N launched herself at Sweater vest, ready to tear him a new one. Bucky wrapped his arm around her waist, putting himself between her and the idiot. “Y/N, breathe…”

“Let me tell you this,” Y/N snapped at Sweater vest, pointing at him around Bucky’s arm. “I would rather never sell another piece of work than listen to your drivel for another moment!”

Sam placed a hand on her arm, tugging her back. “Y/N, let’s go to the kitchen,” he told her, talking to her as if she was a small child that needed to be calmed. He steered her behind the counter as he assured her, “Bucky just finished making some cookies. I’m sure we can steal a couple while he takes out the trash.” Sam glanced over his shoulder, giving Bucky a thumbs up of encouragement.

While Y/N might be completely oblivious to Bucky’s feelings for her, Sam was far from it. And he was completely sure that Bucky would have no problem fixing this situation. He just wished he had a camera to record everything.

Maybe he could borrow the security footage from Rebecca’s cameras.

When the kitchen door closed again, Bucky turned to Sweater vest. He straightened, coming to his full height and towering over the man. It seemed his large build was a firm reminder that Rebecca had ex-military working here because Sweater vest calmed rather quickly.

“I’m so sorry for disturbing the establishment. Artists tend to be a little soft-hearted when it comes to critiques.”

“Not if the critique is asked for,” Bucky told him, taking a step forward as Sweater vest took a step back. Though everyone had avoided looking at Y/N’s and Sweater vest’s argument, all eyes were curiously watching the baker that was often far more quiet than he was now. “Y/N is one of our favorite artists. Her work and company are always welcome in our establishment.”

“O – Our? I thought this shop was owned by a woman…a Ms. Rebecca Barnes.”

“It’s co-owned,” Bucky assured him, offering his best customer service smile.

“By…?”

“Her brother.” He held out his hand. “James Barnes.”

Sweater vest swallowed thickly, throat bobbing nervously as he took Bucky’s hand. The strength in Bucky’s handshake was enough to make him wince, barely able to withhold a cry of pain. Bucky’s other hand, a heavy and metal prosthetic, squeezed his shoulder and earned a cringe.

“While Becca’s Needs for the Soul is open to anyone, we take great pride in reminding our artists that this is their community first and foremost. So you? Are banned.”

Another step and Sweater vest was stumbling through the front door, his shoulder and hand released. “I – “

“Have a nice day.”

The door clanged shut with a ring from the bell. Bucky watched Sweater vest recover, smoothing himself out and making himself presentable once again before he turned and walked away. Bucky shook his head, turning back to the rest of the shop. They all stared at him as if he had grown a second head, never having seen Bucky so outspoken or protective before.

“Show’s over.” Everyone looked back at Sam who was standing in the kitchen doorway. It seemed that was all that was needed for everyone to go back to what they were doing. Sam grinned, asking, “So I could’ve had Sweater vest banned weeks ago if I just…”

“Shut up.” Bucky walked back to Y/N’s painting, picking it up and finally looking at it for the first time. He was…shocked.

It was a full painting – Y/N’s first.

The person was solid black, a shadow with only their eyes visible to the viewer. What he guessed was blue watercolor filled the subject’s irises. Around the person’s outline, breaking through its barrier – endless skies, constellations, galaxies – all messy and brilliant and bold. The paint was thicker, heavier there. He could make out every thick stroke of the person’s figure, of the world around it. Deeper blues, yellows, purples, greens – colors no one would expect to see from a night sky…were there. It was fathomless, endless, and the longer he looked, the more he found something new. She wasn’t connecting the mind, but the eyes, the soul, to the rest of the world.

And that idiot had the balls to say there was no meaning to this?

“I wonder who her inspiration was,” Sam teased, leaning against the counter as Bucky looked over his shoulder.

Bucky stayed silent, hanging the painting back where it belonged. Instead of commenting or over thinking it, he went back into the kitchen. There, sitting on the counter, was Y/N with a cup of coffee and a couple cookies. An apologetic smile curled her lips as she set the plate and mug down.

“Thank you for…that,” she finished lamely, gesturing to the door.

Bucky shrugged. “It’s no problem. You’re my friend.”

Y/N smiled hearing that. She had always wondered if Bucky looked at her as a friend and hearing that he did, it made her heart flutter in a weird sort of way. “Do you…need me to go?”

He shook his head, already returning to the cake he was decorating. The sooner he finished it, the sooner he could put it out to sell. He stood close to her; his eyes focused intently on his creation as Y/N watched him. She loved seeing him in his element. Though he would never admit it, his own creations were art. He poured so much of himself and his love in each dessert.

And it was adorable. But friends didn’t say things like that, so Y/N stayed silent. She was content with this, happy.

Silence fell so easily between them. There was a level of comfort in this moment that couldn’t be replicated by her friendships with Sam or Steve or Rebecca. It was Bucky being Bucky and Y/N being Y/N. Exactly what the other needed.

And neither had any sort of idea that Sam and Steve were watching them through the kitchen door.

Sam looked over at Steve, returning to the register as Steve went to his proper side of the counter. “Think either of them will ever admit it?”

Steve glanced at the glass case that held all of Bucky’s sweets. The first one was a customer-favorite at the shop. A creation that was made of fresh fruit and sweets – something that Bucky had spent all night making the day after he met Y/N. His eyes then shifted to Y/N’s painting, knowing very well who inspired what he believed to be her best creation. Shrugging, he leaned on the counter. “Out loud? Probably not. But there’s always a weird sort of meaning that comes from an artist’s work. They’ll figure it out eventually.”

Sam glanced back at the kitchen when he heard Bucky laugh. No doubt Y/N had done something. “Well, I hope they hurry it up. It’s getting to be a damn romantic comedy around here. And not one of the good ones.”

Steve laughed. Though he’d never admit it out loud, there was a bit of truth to Sam’s words. There always was.

Hi! Thanks so much for doing this!! I was wondering if you could do the four main dragons x reader who is their younger sister, and how they would react to them tagging along with the happy hungry bunch??

Hi there! Thanks so much for sending this in! Onii chan dragons sounds v cute ^^ I hope this was what you were looking for!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kija

Would definitely be opposed to the idea as tagging along would mean that they'd be exposed to a lot of danger, Kija's overprotective you see.

Despite his protests, his sister would keep begging him to let her embark on a journey with them, marketing herself with the several skills she had in both battle and in the wilderness, (she sneaks out a lot, to Kija and his grandmother's concern).

"Just because you can slap some people around doesn't mean you know a poisonous berry from a good one, ani-ue!"

"How rude! I've studied several scrolls our people have written, from travelling far and wide to collect information! Just for this moment!"

"Or is it that you don't want your little sister butting in on your romance, is that it, Ani-ue? Well, if that's the case, I guess I'll-"

"Wha- I-I don't know what you're talking about! Fine! Do whatever you'd like!"

They would bicker, and his sister would feign innocence and embrace him, teasing "aww, thanks ani-ue, I love you!" And proceed to run off and join hands with Yona, to Kija's embarrassment.

Now, on the road, Kija's protective instincts would kick in, always putting his sister before himself, on the same level as his master. His sister knew him all too well, having lived with him all her life, and would usually be quiet, even if she was starving or cold, so her older brother wouldn't worry.

When they were facing off against enemies, his sister would run off somewhere to hide with Yun and Yona, her being the last line of defense, if someone ever found them while her brother and everyone else were preoccupied. Despite his worry, Kija would entrust the princess to his sister, as over the course of their journey, his sister had proved herself more than capable of defending herself and others.

Mayhaps his sister may also find herself crushing on one of the other four dragons.

Shin-ah

Shin ah had his fair share of worries as well, but he decided to let her tag along, deciding that he'd rather have her with him than alone and with the villagers. At first, she would have to do all the translating for the group, being that she knows him better than anyone else, having secretly keeping him company all the time he was locked away.

The group would soon find out that Shin-ah actively gave his sister head pats. Which Yona found absolutely adorable.

His sister would feel almost indebted to Yona, being the one that had brought him outside, freeing him. Being the only one in the world to have understood how kind and gentle her brother was. So you could imagine how much she sobbed to find that there were more people that thought the same.

Shinah's sister would be very fond of his name, as she always called him "onii-chan" and nothing else. It would change to "Shinah-nii-chan" as soon as she found out.

Shinah is protective as well, often giving her the fur he wears to keep her warm, and sleeping beside her to make sure she's safe.

Over the course of their journey, his sister would learn bow skills alongside Yona, and fight with her brother from the sidelines. She'd also be taken under Yun's wing and learn the several healing properties certain herbs had.

Despite how close they were, Shinah's sister would only see his eyes after joining the group, being that Shinah was too afraid to potentially hurt her to let her see them beforehand.

Jaeha

Jaeha would love to have the company of his cute little sister with them on the journey. Having lived with him and the pirates, he knew first and foremost how capable his sister was in battle. His sister would carry a big ego that her brother nourished over the years, but also carrying a vulnerable side that she only showed to Jaeha.

She would carry a number of traits Jaeha has, from his beauty to his flirty personality. Jaeha would often find his sister being playful with everyone in the group. Everyone, to Jaeha's surprise.

From slinging her arms around Kija's arm to chatting with Shinah while staring at him straight through the holes of his mask, and occasionally flirting with Yona. Before Hak roughly interrupts them to which she responds with a sultry giggle saying "why don't you hit me harder."

Jaeha would often find himself prying his sister away from the men, glaring daggers at them. He's the "you don't deserve my adorable little sister" type

"Ah, what a pain. Oi, pervert siblings, keep your hands to yourselves." Mama Yun would find that those words frequent his tongue.

Eventually, the group would grow fond of her, all of them having peeked at the often hidden away, small, but important puzzle pieces that made her, her.

Aside from her brother, she would often find comfort in chatting with Shinah, since he doesn't speak much and had a warm air about him, so it made her feel as if she was in a safe space. Though, Shinah would sometimes find her clinging onto him, sobbing. She could be quite the emotional mess at times.

Zeno

(Let's say that Zeno's sister is immortal too so we don't cry, shall we? 🥺)

Zeno and his sister are a "do not separate" package. His sister didn't get a lot of time with him, as he had his duties at the Hiryuu Castle, and she had to bid him farewell after he decided to go off on a journey of his own.

Little did she know, her brother had the same cursed fate she had, and they both wandered aimlessly as they watched all of their individual loved ones die, until they, one day, came across each other in the woods.

She gazed upon her brother's sleeping face, taking in all the familiarities of his expression. His long eyelashes, his fangs peeking out ever so slightly from his parted lips, everything. It was him. It was really him. When Zeno came to and saw the face of his sister, he thought he was finally dying,

"Y-Y/N..? Have you come to greet me? Isn't it great, I'll finally be able to join you... and Shuten... and Abi.. and-"

until he saw droplets roll down her cheeks and a pair of arms- warm ones- wrap around him.

When they met Yona, the question of whether or not she should join them didn't even cross his mind. In the group, his carefree persona often clashed with his sister's stern one, just like the old days.

His sister also carries an abyss-like stomach, similar to that of her brother, the two frequently being the ones to finish any leftovers.

His sister would get bombarded with questions about her brother, thanks to his seemingly eccentric personality. She would answer them in kind, saying,

"Hmm. Hasn't my brother already answered your question? He's got a really tough body, is all."

Salt and vinegar

First of all, thanks to everyone who read my first attempt at the first person writing, I always struggled with that.

I must say I didn't plan to write a second part to Cakes and accidents because I am a sucker for one shots with open endings, but I actually had a clear idea in my head about how it should continue, and I found a spark of inspiration so here is the part II.

And thanks to @tholland96 @jillanaholland for commenting.

Also part of the inspiration came from this interview in case you want to check it out.

Tom Holland x reader

One shot

Warnings: Fluff, cursing, poor table manners.

The message was bright and clear in your cellphone screen, but still you had to look at ti three more times to make sure what it says, and once the idea had sink in your head you tossed the device away in the laundry basket you were supposed to do that night as if it had somehow offended you. That wasn't real, it was a cruel joke of destiny that Tom Holland, actually Stanley, said the voice in your head, invited you to have dinner with him.

And of course you didn't want to read much into it, you have been talking in an amicable way for the last three days and he was probably trying to be friendly with you. But if you had to sit next to that charming smile and those breathtaking eyes that make you smile like an idiot just by thinking about them, for more than 20 minutes you will end up making an awkward mess of yourself and he would probably feel uncomfortable and would run away scared.

You pick up the phone and ignore the text to call your sister, she may be younger but the list of broken hearts in her past made her the perfect person to give advice, and since it was almost 8 at night she may be free in her new home all those mile away.

"Well he clearly enjoys your company" The voice of your sister told you in the phone after you briefly summarize how you meet him "Y/N why are you doing this? This Holland guy is clearly interested in you, what the hell if he said is name is Stanley or Lucas or Wenceslaus" She made a pause to let you laugh, she always did that, even when she was angry, making jokes was a second nature for Y/S/N "If anything it only means he wants to have a more normal discret experience as a young adult, and trust me it that is hard to find, you should see the blokes out here, they feel like just because they have a couple thousands followers in IG I should be kissing the floor they walk on"

"I suppose you are right, but I haven't done this in so long what if I mess it up?" You said with a voice a little more desperate than you hoped for.

"Then at least you have had dinner with a handsome lad, and you will move on. Look you are not sure if this is a date right? Then take it that way just two friends eating, a normal conversation, maybe a beer and please big sister put on a bloody dress" she said before you start lecturing her on how little you cared for gender specific clothes and she talked some more about her new school. By the time you hung up it was 9:00 and you sent the answer to his text.

Sorry, busy doing laundry. Sure mate! 6 works for you?

"Oh Y/N why did you say mate?" You asked yourself outloud, you really were bad at this.

And here I am, being useless. You are such an adult. 6 works perfect, I'll pick you. Sweet dreams mate! 😉

His text came in within minutes and you let go a relief sigh, before start thinking about what you should wear, but Y/S/N was right, you had to take it as calm as you could, and he was in fact a charming friend, worst case scenario you still were going to have dinner with Tom Holland, that couldn't be bad, and with that in mind you finally went downstairs to do the bloody laundry.

"Looking good Bristol" he said once you open the door at exactly 6:00 pm the next day. "Good thing Tessa is not coming today, will be a shame to get grass and dirt on that dress" he add pointing down to the skirt of the flowy summer dress you finally picked, looking at you for one second to long. So maybe it is a date your mind said happy.

"Oh that's too bad, I actually got her something" You said picking out something from your purse "So she won't be out there chasing innocent british pastries" You said giving him a chocolate cake plush toy. And following him out to his car.

"This is adorable" He said again smiling with his whole body, and you wonder again how does he do that? "Sorry I forgot to tell you to don't posh up, I'm actually just coming out of the gym" Actually never mind. Your mind told you since he was wearing again a simple black tshirt and dark blue jeans, and then you could notice his hair was wet, he probably had just taken a shower ... don't go there. "And I'm actually starving, chips sound good?"

"Sure, I actually didn't like the ones in Bristol so it would be nice to eat them here." Yo said trying to shake your thoughts away from the danger zone and putting on the seatbelt "Isn't it late for being at the gym? I hope you are not an excercise addict"

"I don't think I am" he said with a little laugh "But what do you think is this too much" He said with an obvious pretend innocence flexing up his arms making the tshirt rise on his abs. That's obscene sir, sorry girl you are on your own. Said your inner voice shutting down all logical thinking

"No, you look quite... healthy" You said finally looking to the left, never finding a review mirror so interesting.

"Good I would hate to be too big" he said and you could hear the amusement in his voice, and somehow the fact that he was aware of your obvious crush on him make you confident enough to acknowledge the elephant in the room.

"Obviously, period pieces never look good on beefcakes and you can't be spiderman forever" you said casually and he turn at you a bit astonished.

"When did you knew?" He said and thankfully his tone was not anger nor embarrassment just genuine curiosity "And I would love to do a period piece, what about Heathcliff ?"

"Well I don't believe there is many Staffordshire bull terriers around named Tessa" You started "But I actually recognized you when I saw you" You finally confess, feeling the pressure lifting off your shoulders "But I thought since you were not comfortable giving out your own name it wasn't my place to say anything. And Heathcliff is overrated Linton on the other hand is more of a challenge"

"Oh don't be so harsh on yourself, I didn't mind giving my name or not, it just seemed something funny to do at the time, and Tom or Stanley I actually enjoyed talking to you" He said while he found a place to park. "Do you mind walking from here? Is a nice place but doesn't have and actual car park".

"Not at all, as long is not more than 5 blocks, I am getting hungry" you said with a smile while he maneuver to park his Audi.

"O'Neill's Kingston upon Thames" He said once you were both on the ground and he once again offered you his arm "Have you ever been there? Great food"

"I actually never been there, but sounds fine, let's go" you said gladly taking his arm and walking by his side and a couple blocks later you were finally at the Irish Pub.

"A pint of Guinness and cod and chips" He said returning the menu to the waiter.

"And the lady?" He asked while you struggle to not take forever to decide what you wanted, an old bad habit that your mother have tried to change constantly.

"The Bacon cheese chips and a pint for me as well" you said finally putting the menu away.

"My kind of girl" He said and winked at you, clearly not realizing that your legs will stop working because of it "So when do you go back to bristol?" He asked and that honest interest encouraged you to speak.

"By mid September, my mother is actually about to toss my train ticket in the trash since I didn't came back for spring vacations, but I had so much work that I couldn't."

"I totally get it, whenever I'm away my dad makes such a big deal about it" he said letting go a little laugh "I mean is not the same since I didn't go to college but is sweet"

"Oh but you cross the Atlantic, they have reasons to be worried. I'm just one train away" you said and a small spark of pride shine in his eyes, was he self conscious about you being in college? No that was ridiculous. "Anyway I actually needed this, my friends from uni are in their houses and my friends from high school are too happy with their boyfriends and girlfriends to hang out with me." There I'm a loser now we are even.

"And your sister is gone, been there. I have the feeling Harry is going to break up with me when he gets a real girlfriend" he said and make you laugh, a bit louder and more nasal than you wanted.

"That's some laugh" he said laughing too but instead of making you shut up or get embarrassed you laughed louder causing the waiter to look at both of you like you were crazy while holding your food.

"Yours is no better sunshine" Yo said finally and giving a I'm so sorry look at the guy that kept looking at you and he finally put your food on the table. "This looks delicious" You said taking out one of the chips making a cheese string to extend from the hot plate.

"That's like too much cheese" He said making a funny disgusted face, and then proceeded to add more vinegar and salt to his chips.

"And that's like too much vinegar" You teased back at him, and then taking a big sip of the Guinness.

"No darling, this is too much vinegar" He said taking one of the complementary pickled eggs on de table and giving it a big bite.

"That's actually fucking disgusting..." you started but ironically and unplanned you were betrayed mid sentence by the beer and a loud and horrifying burp came out of your mouth, and the shame and the look on other people faces made you want to be swollen by the floor "Oh shit, I'm so sorry, that was so awful, I'm so gross..." The apologies start bubbling in your mouth while your face turned red and you dare to look at him, and the serious look on his face could have broken your heart in the very moment because you could almost hearing him say how you should end the dinner for once.

"Oh you wanna get tough" He said instead and took a sip of his beer and let go an even bigger burp and then looked at you with the brightest smile yet and add "Beat that baby" and he raised his opened arms as if he had won. You only smiled and nodded and you kept talking about other nonsenses until two beers and a order of onion rings later he was waiting at the door for you to came out of the bathroom to walk back to his car.

"Sorry I take forever, I went back to give a bigger tip to the waiter, we were so awful" You said at him.

"You were awful, I was being completely charming" He said and this time he didn't offer his arm to you instead simply took your hand without saying a word and before you noticed you were already walking holding it tightly.

"Of course you were, the guy put two more picked eggs at the table for you and kept looking drooling" You said and he laughed.

"Sorry sweetheart I can't turn off this pretty face" He said pointing at him when you reached the car, you couldn't agree more.

"Well he must be in love, that's a lot of vinegar to want to kiss someone" You said, again before you could think better and stop your tongue, he stood still and you questioned yourself if you had offended him, since he didn't say anything you let go of his hand and try to walk to open the door, but before you could do it he grab you by the wrist, and you froze immediately.

"That's actually quite disappointing you know?" He started no smile, but no anger either, just an honest tone, he let go of your wrist but you remained in your place "But I have never think it's okay to try and kiss someone in the first date so I figured it would be okay"

Your feet were still on the ground but for a moment your head was miles and miles away in the sky screaming of happiness and incredulity, it was a simple four letter word yet it felt like the most beautiful poem in his lips, and at the same time your logical thinking brought you back to the ground in a millisecond, you needed to be certain of what he had said.

"Well I was not aware this was a date, otherwise I wouldn't have ordered the extra onion rings" you said and give him a timid smile.

"Then I must be terrible at this" he said opening the car door for you "Although I wouldn't mind, but as I said it's a first date so I just want to take you home safely.

"Well that's really sweet of you" you started and he start the car to get back to your home "And since apparently I'm incapable of behaving like a decent person in public when I'm with you next time you should come to my place".

"I like your indecency" He said "And I would love too, are you going to tell me that you can cook too? Because in that case you are officially annoyingly adult"

"Of course, my speciality is reheated pizza in the microwave" You said and he laughed, there was a narcissistic pleasure about being able to make him laugh.

As a perfect gentleman he walked you at your door, there was so much that you wanted to tell him, but the idea of going out with him again soon was so powerful that you almost didn't mind watching him leave.

"That was the funniest and more amazing date I ever have"

"Oh stop it" You said blushing again "I'm going to start believing you and it would get to my head"

"Believe me, I almost run to the drugstore to buy a toothbrush" He said and give you a devilish wink that make you thank your door for being behind you holding you still.

"You know how unfair this is when you look like that?" You said desperately looking at your feet "And for what is worth I have an amazing evening too, and if I'm honest I wouldn't have mind at all too" You said and dare to touch his arm softly before turning your back at him to get inside.

He suddenly grabbed you by your waist and turned back to him, planting a quick soft kiss on your cheek, and you could see the fun grin on his face, he was not being considered he was torturing you with anticipation, and you love it.

"Goodbye then" He said and with one last wink he walk away and got in his car.

You stood ther for solid five minutes touching your face where he had just kissed you and watching the street, then you finally get inside thinking about how happy and uneasy this force of nature of a man made you feel, he would be the end of you, but you wouldn't change it for the world.
