Saw your post about requests being open and had this idea and I didn’t want to fall asleep and forget about it. Idk if you do Esteban Ocon but yeah. Esteban and Kpop idol, she real famous and she’s been soft launching someone for years but never revealed them because her management won’t allow her to reveal who it is. Anyways her contract ends and she reveals that the person she’s been soft launching is Esteban and they’re actually married and have a kid. (You can pick the gender). Thanks. Love the two works you put out already and can’t wait to read more 🫶

The Japanese driver was spotted walking hand in hand with what appears to be his girlfriend, two days after his 23rd birthday and five days after revealing his relationship on the official Formula 1 YouTube channel. Little is known about the Alpha Tauri driver’s lover, but we do know that their height difference is adorable 🥰

NO SOFT LAUNCH: FORMULA ONE DRIVER YUKI TSUNODA GETS SUDDEN SHOCK AS GIRLFRIEND’S INSTAGRAM HACKED – WHO IS Y/N L/N?

Twitter was sent into a frenzy on Sunday, as AlphaTauri driver Yuki Tsunoda sneakily revealed during his post-race interview that his previously-unknown beau was in attendance at the Miami GP!

Tsunoda has been notoriously quiet about his private life, leaving fans stunned at the seemingly out-of-nowhere revelation. The Internet quickly began to scour for the unknown woman online, however with what little information they had, quickly turned up empty. Though, the commotion evidently attracted the attention of the team at AlphaTauri themselves. On Monday, their official Instagram account uploaded a post commemorating the weekend, in which Tsunoda’s girlfriend was also featured.

(Credits: yourusername on Instagram)

Eagle-eyed fans may have noted that both Yuki Tsunoda and the AlphaTauri Instagram account were both cheekily interacting with a private account. Soon, rumours were flying that this account was indeed run by Tsunoda’s girlfriend. As seen above, a quick look reveals that numerous Formula 1 drivers including Pierre Gasly, Lando Norris, Daniel Ricciardo, and Tsunoda himself, are following the account.

Some were not so convinced, however. Fans were also quick to question the account’s authenticity, with some expressing doubts on whether the account owner was even the alleged girlfriend herself.  However, these rumours were soon revealed to be true. On Tuesday, the account – which had previously been private with little over 300 followers – mysteriously became public. Fans immediately flocked to the account, taking to Twitter and Instagram to report their findings. With her most recent post being a dedication to her boyfriend and her time “in miamiiiiii with my boyyyyyy”, there is little doubt that the account’s owner – whom we can now confirm is Y/N L/N – is in fact the Japanese driver’s girlfriend!

(Credits: yourusername on Instagram)

The reason for the account’s sudden change in privacy is unknown, though some theorise that the account was hacked, perhaps by an extremely dedicated fan. Daily Mail has reached out to Tsunoda, AlphaTauri, and Y/N L/N herself for comment.

Ah...

Okay, I'm going to ask you for a fic... I'm not sure you'll do it, but I'd be very happy if you did.

It could be a lee namjoon and ler jin fic. Jin notices that leader Namjoon is very stressed. Namjoon's stress might be making him a little angry or turning him into a tougher guy, and Jin wants to comfort Namjoon. he then realizes that the man is very ticklish and applies his own solution to relax him.

I don't know, I hope you make it. It was a request and you said you wanted to request a story... I hope I wrote it clearly, sorry for my English anyway.

Thanks in advance.

Tickling the stress away

Lee: Namjoon

Ler: Jin

✧˚ ʚɞ˚ ༘✿ ♡ ⋆｡˚

Jin walked into the practice room, his usual cheerful expression replaced with a worried frown as he saw Namjoon pacing back and forth, muttering under his breath. It was clear that the leader was stressing out about something and Jin knew he had to do something about it.

'Namjoon hyung, what's wrong?' Jin asked, approaching the taller male.

Namjoon let out a frustrated sigh, 'I can't seem to get the choreography right for our upcoming performance. I'm worried it won't be perfect enough.'

Jin knew that Namjoon was a perfectionist and always wanted to give their fans the best performance possible. But he also knew that Namjoon's stress could make him a little hot-tempered at times. That's when Jin got an idea.

'Hyung, come here for a second,' Jin said, gesturing for Namjoon to sit down on the floor.

Namjoon gave him a curious look but did as he was told. Jin then sat down behind Namjoon and started massaging his shoulders. He could feel the tension in Namjoon's muscles and he knew he had to work his magic.

Slowly, Jin started trailing his fingers lightly down Namjoon's back, tracing soothing patterns along his spine. Namjoon let out a content sigh and leaned back into Jin's touch. Jin smiled to himself, knowing that he was helping his hyung to relax.

But then, he noticed something. Namjoon was squirming and laughing, trying to get away from Jin's fingers. Jin's eyes widened in surprise. Was the serious and tough leader actually ticklish?

A mischievous smile spread across Jin's face as he continued to tickle Namjoon's sides, making him laugh even harder. Namjoon's eyes snapped open in shock and he sat up, trying to catch his breath.

'Jin-aaaah, what are you doing?' Namjoon asked, his face flushed from laughter.

"I'm jst giving you a massage", Jin smiled and pretend like nothing happened.

Then he continued to "massage" the giggling leader. He ran his hands down Namjoon's sides and made the younger one kick his legs violently

"JIIN ITTT TICKLEESSS", Namjoon screamd helpless.

"Oh, I didn't know that," Jin just laughed and carried on.

Next, he lifted up the younger boy's shirt and began to spider his tummy.

"Does that tickle too?" asked Jin, pretending to have no idea what he was doing.

"YEEEES", Namjoon replied and tried to sound angry but failed miserable.

"You are too cute for this world", Jin teased him.

After a few more minues mercylessly tickling from his hyung, Namjoon laid on the floor with a red face and breathing heavely but he was really relaxed now.

"Why did you do this?", he asked curious.

'You were so stressed, I thought a little tickle therapy could help,' Jin replied with a smile.

Namjoon couldn't help but laugh at Jin's goofy expression. He knew that Jin always had a way of making him feel better, even in the most stressful situations.

'Thank you, Jin-ah. I feel a lot better now,' Namjoon said sincerely, giving Jin a grateful look.

Jin grinned, feeling pleased with himself. He was glad he could help his hyung in some way.

From then on, whenever Namjoon felt stressed, Jin would always be there to give him a tickle therapy session. And Namjoon couldn't help but secretly enjoy it, knowing that he had such a caring and playful friend by his side.

Thanks for your request. I had so much fun to write it and I hope you'll like it 😉👍💜

Anime only watchers and people who aren't caught up with the Manga, BEWARE... Cuz I'm about to discuss Spy X Family Mission 67 (PART 1)... You have been warned...! 👌

[SPOILERS AHEAD FROM THIS POINT ON]

THIS CHAPTER HAD ME ALL OVER THE PLACE, I SWEAR...!! 😵

But, before that... Let me just first address this elephant in the room...

This is the third time this year that a chapter was split into MULTIPLE PARTS... And I'm not saying that that's a bad thing, but I'm just curious as to WHY...? 🤔 I hope that it's just something minor (like not finishing before the deadline) and not anything super serious (like health issues)... But whatever the reason, I do hope that you're doing alright out there Mr. Endo...!! 💗💗💗

Alright! Now let's actually start discussing Mission 67 Part 1, shall we...? 😉

This chapter begins with Anya trying to that (not actually promised) cake from Damian...!

And of course, Damian doesn't know what she's talking about, but figures that it's probably because of the whole handkerchief incident (which it was)...! But after some shenanigans and misunderstandings, Anya brings up THIS👇 to everyone's surprise:

I just love all of their shocked expressions!! 😆

Damian starts to worry about all the possible embarrassing things that his mother could've talked about, but then Anya says...

CAN THIS BOY CATCH A BREAK...?! 💔😫💔

I'm sorry, but... Regardless of whether or not one or both of Damian's parents are evil...

THEY NEED THIER ASSES KICKED JUST FOR THE WAY THEY TREAT DAMIAN!!! 😠

*Ahem...* Sorry about my minor burst of aggression, but um... BACK TO THE CHAPTER...!! 😅

After all the Anya and Damian stuff, we catch up with Twilight at his (fake) job...!!:

(And Fiona / Nightfall is there as well...! 👍):

We are then introduced to this guy👇 who is SUPER JEALOUS of Loid...!!:

And because that, he's basically preventing Twilight from getting any vital information from anyone close to Melinda... 😑 Which causes this ABSOLUTELY AMAZING expression from Twilight!! 🤣:

THIS IS ONE OF MY NEW FAVORITE EXPRESSION IN THE SERIES NOW!! 😂

After a bunch of INGENIOUS RIDICULOUS plans to make Loid look bad in front of everyone, this man goes for HIS LAST RESORT:

WHAT!!? I DON'T-- I'M SPEECHLESS...!!! 😱

What a way to end this chapter, but... My god...!! What's gonna happen next?!! 😵

Mission 67 Part 2 can go a lot of different ways... This could potentially be something REALLY BAD for the Forger Family or Twilight will find a HILARIOUS way out this... But honestly, I have no idea... 😔

ENDO IS ALWAYS KEEPS US ON OUR TOES, MAN!! 😩

Anyway, I really enjoyed this chapter and I can't wait for Part 2!! 😁 So until then, I'll be seeing you guys in the next Mission!! BYE!!

[ageless-aislynn]

Slow burn and I’m loving it, nobody asked for a time reference in every chapter but I’ve been doing it anyway

Yay, thanks so much for playing along! 😎

Slow burn and I’m loving it, nobody asked for a time reference in every chapter but I’ve been doing it anyway 🤷‍♀️😉 (Halo series) aka "15 Minutes" (John/Reader) ⭐💖⭐

Chapter 6 is going to be super-sized since it's been *coughcough* months since ch5 and has a surprise guest star from the game world in it! No one else might care about the guest star but hey, I do and since I'm steering the boat... *beep beep* GUEST STAR! 😂

Anyway, in lieu of sharing a part of ch6 since it's hopefully going to be appearing this next week 🤞😣🤞 how about I tell you a couple of things I may not have mentioned before about it?

Originally, it was going to be John/OC instead of Reader, which is why she sometimes seems to have a lot more in common with an OC. However, she doesn't have a description, other than the fact she's shorter than John. Beyond that, she can be anyone, so I hope that anybody reading it can still feel like it's easy to project themselves as her, if that's what they'd like. Or that you can read the second tense “you” as being a form of first tense “I” and not consider that she is YOU but just a character you're reading along with. I hope that makes sense, lol! I mainly want my fics to be as inclusive and enjoyable as possible. (Kai has a male Reader over in the companion fic "Recreation" and "No Time" has a gender-neutral Reader with John.)

Also, yes, she does have a name but  I'm honor-bound to not reveal it. 😁(Same for Kai's Reader character in "Recreation;" I gave him a name, too, just so he doesn't feel left out. 😉)

Originally, this was meant to be a one-shot to fill my burning need to give John a hug after Halo 1x06 where the poor guy is practically screaming in pain and slumping down a wall and everybody's just like, "Hm, wonder what's wrong with Chief? Welp, on with my day!"

C'mon, Chief clearly needs a hug! And a medic. But definitely a hug!

Once there was interest to read more about them, though, I began using this as a chance to incorporate a bunch of my favorite tropes to read/write. I also liked the chance to explore a bit of the "ordinary" world that would be going on around all of the adventure and derring-do that Silver Team is embarking on during season 1.

I'm also feeling free to jump in the AU Warthog to weave in and out of canon however it best suits me, lol.

Into the AU party ‘hog, frens! Woo-hoo! (I adore the custom weapons and vehicle skins so much I made a little vid for them, lol.)

I enjoy making up little AU GIFs to go with each chapter but soon realized that it was more of a challenge than I originally expected because, since I don’t want to show any part of the Reader and thus define her skin color, hair color/type/length etc. But I’ll keep coming up with something for as long as I can!

I don’t have a set number of chapters this is projected to run but I’m guestimating... 🤔 quite a few. 😂 There’s still just so much I have planned for them! And I do have an ending for them that will bring us back kinda to the end of s1. The AU Warthog version of s1, anyway!

I’m hoping to get my couple of other Flash WIPs finished off then I’ll be coming back to this and “Recreation” in order to hopefully get them on a bit more timely posting schedule. I would ideally like them both to finish before s2 premieres in Spring 2023. We’ll see!

And there we have it! Thanks again! 😎👍

Hey guys. I like to apologize after deleted my reblog post at night. There’s been a problem that my P-pal wanted to take down his latest art trade work for me.

Regardless though, it seems that it brought back somehow. However I’ll keep an eye on for sure if it does happened again. Anyways….

(My previous reblog respond)

A thumbs up result for my P-pal’s art trade and an awesome cosplay for 🐶Wilson. Considering how I used to watch ☠️One Piece anime for my enjoyment; saving for their films later, but also on other anime shows like Pokémon since the start of my childhood. Though forgive myself that I eventually give up watching throughout all series. At least I had fond memories of before seeing Ash Ketchum managed to win the Pokémon Championship twice.

Anyways, hope you enjoy my P-pal’s latest art post for me; especially for Wilson while looking good in cosplay.

🐶Wilson “Long Ears”: Yeah, I’m really digging while hoping to become a future pirate king. 😉 Thanks when making this art trade for our creator friend. 👍

Hey Ace can you eat p-

[contemplatingoutlander]

I started my blog on June 17, 2015 and three years later it has come full circle ☯; my grateful 🙏THANKS to all of you who hung in there with me on this journey ❤️️

It’s amazing to me that three years have gone by since I started this blog. At the time I had recently ceased being a SamCait shipper but I was not yet a nonshipper/ truther (NST). I was squarely in the middle. 

And after a tumultuous journey, I find myself back in the middle again. In retrospect, that’s where I’ve always felt most comfortable and freer to be myself.

It’s interesting to me in retrospect that these were my first two posts:

Given the drama of the past three years, I think I should have paid a bit more attention to the quote on suffering. 😉

The second quote about the cigar is also telling. If nothing else, I’m a firm believer in Occam’s razor, the principle that if there are two or more explanations for something, the simplest one that makes the fewest assumptions is usually the better one. Hence, I’m not a fan of conspiracy theories.

When I started my blog there weren’t many conspiracy theories about Sam and Cait in the fandom. Consequently, it’s fascinating to me that the cigar quote was one of my first two posts. (I must be prescient! 😜) 

When I started my blog, I picked a truly awful name for it “lucypsychout,” 🙄 which I ended up changing a few months later. Lucy is one of my middle names. My avatar was Lucille Ball. 

The only thing I liked about the lucypsychout blog name was that Lucy avatar. 😂 😘

Despite all the ups and downs of the past three years, I surprisingly have more followers than I’ve ever had. My blog has had over two million page views and is approaching a million unique visits. Compared to the major Outlander shipper, fanfic or gif maker blogs, that’s nothing. But for a blog that was a part of the tiny (yet controversial) NST community for a long time, it’s a small accomplishment--in perseverance if nothing else.

Especially the perseverance of my followers.

I want to THANK all of you who have hung in there with me through good times and difficult ones. You have made all the difference. I especially want to thank those of you who reached out to me in chat and through asks to let me know you cared. Those gestures got me through some very tough moments. You people are amazing! ❤️️ ❤️️ 😘

I also want to thank those of you who reached across from the “other side” to let me know that you supported me during the most recent turmoil.  I’m utterly astonished that some of you were able to put aside our differences to do that. Thanks so much! 👍 😘 ✌️

I also want to thank all of you who have appreciated my decidedly silly sense of humor and have looked forward to my Sam’s Diary parodies (especially the “Notes to self”) and weird posts about Sam’s man boobs or Cait singing 🎵 “The Hills are Alive” or reports from “Beverly Hills Anon” and her friends from “Anons Anonymous” or updates on “Aunt Bessie.” It’s been a pleasure laughing with you all these years. 😂🤣😂

And of course, I want to thank all of you who have shared in my appreciation of cat gifs! (I still love these two little guys, especially the smaller one’s audacity!) 😻 😽

It is also almost the three year anniversary of the “No Verra Sensible” essay series.

In the next few days I will be updating and revising those posts (as some of the material is outdated) and renewing my commitment to a middle way perspective and a peaceful fandom. I might possibly be even able to finally finish the series.

When I was still involved in the fan feud it felt hypocritical to write about peace. But now that I have stepped out of the feud again, maybe I can learn from my mistakes and put some of that knowledge to work in concluding the essay series.

Anyway, I hope you all continue to follow my blog as I embark (once again) on a middle path journey. And thanks again for accompanying me on all the previous twists and turns this blog has taken over the years. I look forward to enjoying the Outlander fandom with you in years to come. 🙏 ☯ ☮ ❤️️ 😊 😘
