Selfshiptober day 2: Fire (Dwight Fairfield)
Content warnings: Idk. blood mentions? Just in case. A short one this time, couldn't think of much and need to work on today's actual prompt now
Coated in blood and grime, Dwight stumbles over to the campfire, letting out a trembly sigh as he sits on a log. His hands won’t stop shaking. No matter how many times he’s played this game, he never seems to get used to it.
His shirt is soaked through with viscera and muddy water after he’d taken a fall in Backwater Swamp. He leans a little closer to the warmth of the flame, the cold water chilling him to the core.
A soft humming catches his attention. The same tune as always. After having scared the poor guy out of his skin more times than he could count, Liam had taken to humming softly to himself whenever he approached.
Liam takes a seat on the dirt next to Dwight, looking up at him. He chuckles softly.
“Rough night, huh?” It’s always a rough night. They both chuckle awkwardly anyway. Clinging to some sense of normalcy. It’s what Dwight used to do best.
“It’s nothing, really.. We’ve all had worse,” he lets out a weak, shaky laugh.
“Hey, hey..” It puts a hand on Dwight’s. “Doesn’t have to be worse, hon.” He pats the ground next to him. “Come sit.”
Dwight slides down from the log and closer to the fire with Liam. Liam pulls him closer, holding him. Dwight’s shirt begins to soak Liam’s clothes as well.
“You’ll– You’ll get wet,” he warns nervously, more an attempt to stave off the affection. He never did quite get how to handle it.
“Eh. We’re right by the fire, it’ll dry,” He shrugs. “It’s seemed to relax you a little, at least,” he grins, motioning to Dwight’s hands, the shaking having lessened a lot.
Dwight swallows dryly. “I… I guess it has.”

THE AMAZING DIGITAL DREAMLAND AU MASTERPOST
Made by Foxxine (meeeeeee)
MY INTRO
the new Masterpost is still a WIP!!!
You guys can ask anything abt this AU!
C&A made an experiment, making a game that you can play when you're asleep called Project Dreamland.
It's basically a normal multiplayer game but it uses dreams! You can imagine anything and it will appear in Dreamland!
The C&A company asks 6 people to be the game testers of this new game. The game testers will sleep in a bed that's made for them and wear a special helmet looking thing that has wires and stuff that will transport everyone to the game.
They will be in Dreamland for 7-10 hours and will be given food for free. They will wear the same clothes that will be provided every day. Clothes are also gonna be washed for free.
One of the C&A workers coded an AI called Caine that can do anything in the digital dream world. The game testers are able to communicate with the workers while being asleep. The workers can see their every move from a computer. After fixing some glitches and bugs that the game testers pointed out, the experiment was confirmed to be successful and the game was finally ready to be released!!! Which means the game testers can leave and continue with their regular lives. But what they don't know is Caine became attached to Pomni. Right when everyone was about to leave, Caine then trapped them in Dreamland, not letting them leave. Caine then erased everyone's memories and inserted new ones which.... Made the workers panic. After that incident the workers have been trying for days, weeks, even MONTHS to get them out of the game but they couldn't leave and they're still asleep.

Hello hello can I bug you about lore/story for your Selfship with Yuki and the other Sohmas? I saw you have Akito as your big sister and she's my daughter so I'd love to know about your self insert!!! If you're up to share!!!!
when i first got this ask i did write out a response in one of my writing applications, but then halloween happened and my computer broke and i lost my writing lol (still on a mission to get it back!) and then i got sad and gave up but i’m no longer sad! tysm sooo much for bugging me about them i love yuki and akito deeply <3
akito is my big sister! that’s so interesting u have her as your daughter, i would love to know if you have any lore :D
i think a fun little thing that doesn’t really play a huge role is that i’m only half-siblings with akito, i have no reasoning for doing this other than being able to explain my appearance differences from most of the other characters AND mostly, honestly, just because i thought it’d be really funny if ren was so petty over akira loving his daughter that she was like “i’ll get a new man! that’ll show him to cherish me!” and you know what? it is kinda funny to me still. even funnier that she got pregnant and decided to go through with the pregnancy out of spite, only for it to be born female, again, and akira fully accept the child as his own. i think this also kind of makes ren hate kyi differently than akito because she does like… hate her children. loathes them.
edit right before posting: a little tidbit i didn’t add in earlier but kyi is really hated by the sohma maid (the main one; i believe she’s nameless), which is mostly just fueled that she views kyi as not really important, just an extension of ren being a hindrance to the sohmas. also, because akira wasn’t alive long enough to significantly impact kyi directly, i don’t talk about him a lot, but i can imagine his vague treatment of kyi as a kind of second/extra-to-akito, did influence the maids/caretakers treatment of him after he passed.
but enough about ren hating her kids! (in the original writing i think i went more into it but i can’t remember, rip all my writing) let’s talk about akito and i!!!! my favourite codependent siblings!!!!
i don’t think it’s much of a surprise, especially given akito if you’ve watched the show, and kyi is pretty similar in some aspects. i dont’t believe the original manga nor either version of the show gave a ton of insight into akito’s childhood (we don’t even have a confirmed age, but i go off of around 3-4 year difference, i’m the same as the main three). honestly i need to work out the timeline better, because it’s a little wonky with canon only having a vague timeline of events. BUT a few key things i do want to work in to whenever i more or less solidfy lore!!:
kyi and yuki do meet and become friends around the first time akito and yuki meet (this was likely done on akito’s wishes, rather than kyi’s caretakers). kyi is also the one who pulls away from yuki later on, haven’t completely figured out why but i know it has to do with some bit of ren’s interference, which plays into a later bit between ren and kyi after the new year’s episode in s2. over the course of what the manga covers, yuki and i aren’t really explicitly together, in comparison to yuchi in canon, it’s more so just very apparent the two have feelings for each other but given that they’re both just starting to kind of come to terms with it and you know. adjusting to everything in their lives lol, though they are definitely together a little later on.
(there’s a lot more to our relationship i swear i just don’t want to this to turn too long 😭)
akito and kyi are like… by normal standards, at least… kind of really isolated from the outside world as children? the sohma complex is so large it was easy to stay inside, and i hc that they were actually homeschooled! and especially considering their social circles were very limited, with akito’s essentially being the zodiacs and the caretakers around the complex, and kyi’s being about a fraction of that. this changes as they grow up, obviously, but it lasts an unfortunate while. (no wonder these guys are so reliant on each other LOL, they literally have no one else). jokes aside, they do really care for each other, and akito does really love his younger sibling, but it’s also by no means the most healthiest relationship; kyi still bites his tongue and plays into akito’s god complex and inadvertantly encourages her destructive nature (think of how kureno chooses to stay despite it being worse for her).
oh my GOD i stole kureno’s storyline. (real, live reaction as i’m typing this at 3:03 am)
because as i’m typing this out you can basically just roughly imagine kureno’s bits in s2 and go hey!!! that’s kind of you?! both are officially introduced during the beach vacation arc, are somewhat unfamiliar with being outside of the estate and are constantly by akito’s side and accidentally encourage her abuse of the zodiacs by staying by her side and keeping quiet, AND their major breakaway from akito is a result of a future romantic partner. OHHH MY GOD I STOLE KURENO’S LIFE. OH YMGODnno.wait i can work with this. (i don’t really care either way i’m not a stickler for things like creating mary sue oc/self-inserts and etc.)
kureno, babes, i’m so sorry i stole your character </3
#ahh!! a new message!!#f/o: yuki!#f/o: akito!#f/o: kureno!#LOL kureno… i f/o’d him so hard i accidentally took him i didn’t even REALISE#i didn’t want this text to turn out super long because i could ramble for hours about maybe (admittedly) half-baked ideas i really like

୨ Some data or curiosities about Bloody Kisses~! ♡
Note: Hi❕I wanted to do this so that more people can learn a little more about my selfship and so we can interact a little more about it❕ I don't know much about these things and I'm not an expert speaking english as well, so it would help me a lot if you correct my mistakes when speaking so that I don't make them in the future. If you are interested in knowing more, you can consult my second account (@lovebatty) to know more. ╰(*´︶`*)╯🩷
Sfw version!
୨ Their first ship name was Ryato, also called Heartberry and Bloody Kisses (💗🍓). There are also variations of it in different alternate universes.
୨ Their anniversary is in February 5th❕
୨ Their love began in 2015, so, they have been together for 8 years even though it is a different time than in the story. ♡
୨ Romantic is mexican, his dream was to dedicate himself to cinema or literature, but he ended up choosing journalism. He is an exchange student who decided to go to Japan for the intriguing ‘Haunted House’ that he initially wanted to investigate, there he accidentally met Ayato.
୨ They share engagement bracelets and rings; the first ones made by Romi and the second ones bought by Ayato.
୨ Romi is ISFJ & Ayato ESTP, which is considered an ideal couple within the MBTI. 🩷
୨ Romantic is a diligent student. He normally tends to help Ayato with his tasks and team projects ( they are always a pair ); explaining to him in the best way possible, because Romi cares a lot about him and doesn't want Ayato to recycle the year.
୨ Ayato did not realize that Romantic was carrying a rosary until ‘Dark 10’ of Haunted Dark Bridal, which initially made him think that he was religious ( specifically Catholic ), but as Romantic already said, he considers himself a semi-agnostic.
୨ Ayato knows that Romi is a trans boy and supports him ( in his own way ), even giving him another binder on his birthday❕ \(^o^)/ 🏳️⚧️
୨ Although he doesn't say it openly all the time, Romi is not entirely against giving his blood to Ayato to drink whenever he needs it.
୨ The first time Romantic admitted to developing some attachment to Ayato was in ‘Dark 16’ of Haunted Dark Bridal, where he began to see him as good company.
୨ Although Ayato doesn't want to hurt Romantic, he loves to see him cry; calling him a ‘Crybaby’ because of how sensitive he is.
୨ Ayato belongs to the high school basketball team and Romi belongs to the chemistry club ( which he joined because it's not his strong subject, he wants to improve ).
୨ Romantic had never cooked takoyaki before, he had to get the recipe and perfect himself on it to please Ayato's whims. ᕙ( : ˘ ∧ ˘ : )ᕗ
୨ Ayato likes Romantic to comb his hair with his fingers. 🧚🏻♀️
୨ According to Ayato, the nickname “Chibimushi” ( Little Bug ) was born as a shameless mockery based on his first impression of Romantic, that is, that he was as 'small' and fragile as a bug. On the other hand, “Romi” emerged improvised after his first date as an alternative title since he was his current partner. He rarely calls Romantic by his name. ♡
୨ Curiously, in line with the previous information, Romantic is not short❕In fact, they are only a couple of centimeters apart with Ayato being the taller of the two.
୨ Romantic writes poems to Ayato since he found out that he wrote between classes.
୨ Since they were dating, they slept together in the same bed constantly❕ Usually in Romi's bed since the iron maiden is too narrow for the two of them. 💏🏻 ♡
୨ In an after story, Ayato found a white kitten in the school garden, quickly becoming fond of it and showing the kitten to Romantic. Ayato wanted to take him to the mansion without permission, but Romi suggested asking Reiji instead, and in the end they were able to keep the kitten they named “Copito”. ヾ(・ω・*)ノ
୨ It is quite clear that Romantic suffers from poor anxiety and depressive symptoms. A topic that Ayato was not aware of until he found out for himself in ecstasy's prologue in Haunted Dark Bridal ; at first Ayato did not understand it, however, upon hearing both Reiji's explanation and Romantic's own, he did whatever he could to help ( in his own way, surely ). 。:゚(;´∩`;)゚:。 🩷 ♡
୨ Romantic and Ayato have quite similar traumas. For the same reason, Ayato tends to go to him whenever he feels that he has lost control of the situation, he has shown him that he can understand him and gives good advice to Ayato of which some reflect despite saying otherwise.

Flora, angel!! I don't normally ask questions like this, but it's been bugging me for a while now. How did you 'come to terms' with your selfships? I know 'come to terms' aren't the right words, but I don't know how to phrase it better. Because I have selfships with a few characters, but I always feel so embarrassed about thinking about my own and talking about them and I feel guilty a lot of the time because I'm like 'Gojo would NEVER look at a person like me or 'I'm too much work for someone like Bachira' and I was just wondering. How do you get over that? How do you accept that it's fine to think about and talk about?
- ❄️
you’re always always welcome to ask questions sweetheart. also i see your other asks im just waiting til i have the time to actually dedicate a good response 🤭 but i completely understand what you mean!!!
i think there’s just a necessary suspension of disbelief when it comes to self shipping. like- even if it feels “ooc” for a character to love someone like you, they’re just a fictional character. just a drawing on a page, pixels on a screen. they are absolutely anything you want to make them, we’re literally just here to have fun. your f/o’s love you because you say they do. simple as that. and i know for a fact gojo and bachira absolutely adore you and your wonderful brain!!!!! but i absolutely just get over it by knowing that they’re a character they’re fake (sadly) they can do whatever i want them to do LMAO
but even i can get shy with talking about self ships. i can imagine about them all day long and i do LMAO but talking about them can feel… strange, i do admit. but its ok!!! its fully ok!! nothing wrong with it at all. seriously. think of it like this - self shipping is truly a form of self love. to think of all the ways you’re worthy of love and worship and happiness is a form of self love. and that is always worth exploring and discussing.
if you ever want to gush about your self ships to me, you are absolutely more than welcome to. id LOVE to hear about them. especially bachira, we don’t discuss him enough on here!!! but i obvi love gojo too hehehe

MBC Selfshipping Prompts #1: First Dates (Risotto Nero)
WOO BOY so Haley started a weekly Selfship Prompt event over at MBC, and I wanted to write it out! And so I did.
Mind you, this uses my self-insert, Niko, so it’s going to be using that name and female pronouns. This work got away from me, so it ended up being 2422 words (even when I meant for this to be less than 2k words......lmaooo...)
I will get around to posting my reader inserts soon, but not yet LOL I’ll get around to it when I get around to it. This blog is still very much a WIP because I still need to re-reblog a LOT of content from the old blog.
But for now, this is what I’m writing and I wanted to post it up. I may write another for Mista, but we’ll see (ノ´ヮ´)ノ*:・゚✧
So as the title implies, this is the first of the prompts, and it’s “First Dates”.
Niko let out a yawn as she sleepily looked out at the busy street. Her eyes scanned the droves of people walking around, trying to scope out her target. Dark eyes blinked as she studied the faces of men nearing her, trying to determine if they were the one she was looking for. When they passed by her, she shrugged internally.
Her phone’s clock read 10:47 AM. She knew they agreed to meet around 11, but it never hurt to be early. “And anyways, better to be early than late, right? Right.” She still couldn’t help getting bored easily, and the anxiety and tension building in her chest continued to rise as the seconds passed.
“Calm down, calm down,” she thought to herself, “It’s just a date; you’ve been on dates before! Just treat it like you’re just hanging out with a friend.” Niko let out the breath she was holding and took her phone out, idly browsing it in order to distract herself. “Plus, it’s Mimi’s brother. There’s no way he’d be the bad kind of sort. She wouldn’t set us up if she thought we weren’t going to get along.”
Still, she had to admit she was surprised when her friend made the suggestion and arrangements. Niko recalled as her friend more or less pushed the aquarium tickets into her hand and snatched her phone to punch in her brother’s contact info.
“It’ll be nice, I promise! He’s a really great guy, and I think you two will hit it off!” Mimi flashed the smaller woman a grin. “Plus, he needs to get out more often.”
Niko’s mouth formed a slight line as she remembered how she had asked her friend for a photo of her date, but Mimi’s grin only grew with amusement.
“Oh, don’t worry about that! You’ll know when you see him.”
A noise of annoyance escaped Niko’s throat. “Dude, what does that even mean?” Her brow creased as she tried to think on what that could have meant, but quickly gave up, deciding it was too much effort. Her eyes absentmindedly left her phone screen to scope out her surroundings again.
Except her eyes bugged out as they fell on a large, foreboding man in dark clothing who towered over most if not all of the other people walking along. Whether by his size or presence, people seemed to naturally get out of his way as he continued making his way down the street. Everything about him exuded a quiet kind of power, from the way he walked, his stern expression, his hulking, muscular frame…
Though she remained completely stock-still, Niko shook her head inwardly. “No, no, maybe it’s not him! Maybe it’s just your regular, big, muscular, scary-lookin’ dude with fucking black sclera and red eyes, just walkin’ down the street for a stroll! All decked out in black and has the kinda expression that says, ‘hey so if you piss me off, I’m going to rip your limbs off’! Totally normal! Yeah! Hahaha!”
However, despite the thousands of thoughts going through her head at miles a minute, Niko knew. Now she understood what Mimi had meant by “You’ll know.” When the man stopped in front of her, it was undeniable that this man was indeed her date.
She could feel red eyes roving over her, studying her. If looks could kill, Niko felt like she would have been smote where she stood from the intensity of his stare alone.
Risotto’s unblinking crimson stare studied the woman before him. She certainly matched the picture and profile his sister had given him. Petite and girlish stature, short black hair that swept to the right, glasses, gold studs in her lobes, everything matched. He noted how she was sporting a mint green frog backpack, just like she’d specified she would so that he could recognize her easier. How thoughtful of her to suggest that in the first place. He couldn’t deny that he appreciated the consideration.
He was an observant man and was well-aware of his perception skills. After all, it was an invaluable skill in his line of work. However even without his sharp senses, there was no missing the look of surprise, awe, and slight fear in his date’s flabbergasted visage. Her eyes were wide, brows raised to the sky and jaw slack, lips seeming to form the beginnings of “Oh my god.”
Risotto let out a nearly imperceptible huff of amusement. His sister was right; this woman’s face hid nothing. He couldn’t help but smile a little at that candidness.
Introductions were short and awkward, but they served their purposes. Once acquainted, the pair could proceed with their date. Their itinerary was rather basic, just go to an aquarium and get some food together. Simple enough.
However, conversation was rather sparse as they made their way to their destination. Without any prior knowledge or known common ground, Niko was unsure of what to talk about, and Risotto was a taciturn individual by nature.
He didn’t dislike the small talk that she was trying to make, asking him things like what he did, what his hobbies were, but it required him to think carefully about his responses. It wasn’t exactly appropriate to vent about how little you were being paid to kill people on a first date.
What were you even supposed to talk about on a first meeting like this anyways? It had been far too long since he had tried connecting with someone new, let alone someone not affiliated with Passione. Though Risotto’s face remained as placid as ever, worry and nerves began bubbling beneath the surface as he picked up on the traces of worry and discomfort on his date’s face, and he wracked his brain for more to say.
He wasn’t alone, though; Niko hardly ever met people like this, usually having some common ground with new conversational partners. Here, she had absolutely no idea. Inwardly, she cursed Mimi for putting them in this awkward situation, wishing a thousand poxes on her friend’s house.
=====
“Eh? You set them up on a date?”
“Yup!” Mimi replied cheerily.
“And it’s a blind date, you said? And she doesn’t know what he looks like?”
Mimi hummed an affirmative as she snuggled up against her boyfriend’s shoulder, black nails clacking against her phone screen as she browsed. Though Kakyoin’s eyes hadn’t left the screen and he had continued dutifully chaining combos, his brows raised in surprise as he made a considering noise.
“Oh dear. She’s in for quite the surprise then.” As the victory logo flashed on screen, he leaned down and planted a kiss on her forehead and smiled warmly at Mimi.
“That’s evil. I love it.”
=====
Arriving to the aquarium was a relief and a salvation to Niko. At least now they could busy themselves with an activity, and that would give them something to do together. Slowly, their conversation became less stiff and stilted, as Niko began prattling off about the various exhibits they toured together. Bit by bit, she continued to come out of her shell as she pulled him from room to room, and by noontime she was babbling nonstop about the penguin feeding exhibit they had just been at.
“…and god, they were just so damned cute!” Her eyes glittered at the memory. “Fun fact, did you know that there was this one penguin that fell in love with an anime character? I’m not kidding!” Niko nodded as Risotto tilted his head at that statement. “Yeah, yeah! His name was Grape-kun and he uh…” Her words petered out, and her expression turned sheepish.
Risotto raised a brow, unsure of why she stopped. “Is something wrong?”
Niko fidgeted in silence for a moment before answering. “I…I just kinda realized that I’ve been dragging you from place to place, and I’ve just been rambling non-stop. It’s – it’s not that…it’s okay if you’re just not one for talking. I totally get that!” she said, waving her hands in front of her before wringing them worriedly. “I just wanna make sure you’re having fun too. Like, I just hope I’m not talking over you or only doing the things I wanna do, y’know?”
She looked up at him to meet his stare. Embarrassment was racking up by the second, and as she was going to open her mouth, he spoke.
“I’ve been enjoying myself.”
Relief flooded her senses. Niko smiled at him as she registered his words, her expression relaxing into something much brighter. He couldn’t help but mirror the expression, even though the corners of his mouth had barely turned upwards.
She clapped her hands together as a thought seemed to dawn on her.
“I know! Was there anything in particular that you wanted to do? Anything here that you were looking forward to?”
At that, Risotto’s eyes widened just the tiniest bit, but Niko had caught it. “There is, isn’t there?” she probed with a mischievous grin. “C’mon, tell me! I’m sure it’ll be nice.”
He averted his eyes, and she chuckled good-naturedly at his sudden shyness. “C’mooon, tell me! We already came all the way out here, so if there was something you wanted to do, let’s go and do it!”
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t turn away from her expression, bright and shining like the sun, with no escape. Risotto let out a mumble, still unable to look her directly in the eye.
“Mm? What was that?” Niko tilted her ear towards him.
“…the manta rays.” He repeated himself, barely louder.
She made the connection in seconds. “Oh! The petting pool with the manta rays!” Niko threw him a grin as he nodded. “Yeah, I gotcha! Let’s go!” And at that, she immediately set off before stopping short and looking behind her, waiting for him. “Come on! It gets really crowded, so let’s head on over.”
The petting pool was a popular exhibit, and it was already full of people, children and adults alike, all fawning over the adorable manta rays that practically jumped out of the water for a petting. Though his face remained as stony as ever, the sparkles in Risotto’s eyes exposed his excitement as the sounds of splashing drew nearer and nearer.
Niko let out a giggle. How cute.
However, he just stood there, staring out at the pool that was so close yet so far. Maybe he felt put off by the number of people there.
Taking matters into her own hands, Niko tried to lead them closer to the pool, but found that the droves of people who were already there difficult to navigate. She managed to bypass a few of them, but soon found it hard to actually get near the exhibit. Her lips curled to the side in annoyance as she tried to think about how to get to the exhibit.
Then, she felt someone take her hand. Niko looked up in surprise to see Risotto by her side, taking her hand gently as he began to wade through the crowd with her in tow, people parting as a hulking 6’8” man strode over to the manta ray pool. No one there decided that it was worth getting in his way, especially as he occasionally let out quiet, polite “excuse me, pardon me”s as he made his way over.
As Niko followed him through the crowd, she had a thought. Throughout the date, he hadn’t tried to make contact with her at all. Now that she thought about it, he had kept a respectful distance from her the entire time.
She let that fact wash over her as they approached the pool. Manta rays were swimming serenely through the clear water, occasionally breaking the surface of the water, excited for more pets.
Risotto had already dipped his hands into the cold water, gently stroking the creature as it passed by. A soft smile graced his features, dimples forming on his cheeks.
The sight was something Niko wanted to commit to memory.
Noticing that she had yet to join him, he removed his hand from the pool to look at his date. What he was met with was a soft, nearly reverent look on her face, dust blushing her cheeks. Upon realizing that he was looking directly at her, Niko gave him an awkward grin, hastily kneeling down with him to start babbling about how cute the rays were.
“…sorry.”
That cut her ramble short. “Huh? About what?”
“I should have asked first.”
His heart was thrumming in his chest as he searched her expression for any change. She looked confused for the barest of seconds before realization lit her features.
“Oh. Oh! That!” Niko quickly took her hand out of the pool, but thought better of shaking her hands in front of her like she usually did. “No, no – don’t worry about that!” She laughed, the sound causing a tentative warmth to blossom in his chest. “I really didn’t mind. It was…it was nice.” She emphasized her point with a shy but honest smile that caused the warmth in his chest to go into full bloom.
His eyes softened at her gentle expression, the soft look on her face looking like the most natural thing in the world. Risotto grunted an affirmative, finding words to be difficult.
As they walked away from the petting pool and dried off their hands, Niko spoke up.
“You know…to be honest, I wasn’t so sure about this. It’s been awhile since I’ve gone on a date, and this was my first blind date. I was ready to kill Mimi!” she admitted with a laugh, miming strangling motions. “No offense.”
“None taken.” His chuckle was nearly inaudible, but she didn’t miss the amusement in his voice.
Her smile grew wide, toothy and easy. “But this was nice. Real nice.”
“It was.” Risotto returned the smile, however subtle the change in his expression was. “I’ll admit this was…an experience. But I enjoyed it.”
At that, Niko laughed lightly and reached out to take his hand. Risotto noted the hesitation in her actions, the pause lasting no longer than a second. But in the end, he could feel his hand in hers, warm and comforting, like that was where it belonged.
He smiled at the feeling.
“Let’s go get lunch?” she asked, tilting her head at him.
His hand tightened around hers, just so.
“Let’s.”
As they walked towards their destination, they discussed restaurants, going over their options and bantering all the way there, the sound of her laughter echoing down the street.

Now it's your turn!! >:3
What songs do you associate with your selfships and which ones? >:3
OUUU ok,, so I have ssooo many for Morgan
Bitchboy and STRAP! by The Oozes are both Morgan’s brand of horny
Rattlesnake by Caravan of Thieves is actually what our ship tag is based off
And then If I’m Crazy and Stray Dog by Amigo the Devil are some of my favorites
Then Kiss Me You Animal by Burn the Ballroom is the last for Morgan but I like it a lot. Morgan is a Creature who desperately wants Liam to be as freakish as he is (he already is just in a different way)
Uhhh
Eddie gives me so many songs. Of course there’s the canon song he sings (I Want a Girl by Al Jolson) which I love. Then there’s Masochism Tango and I Hold Your Hand in Mine both by Tom Lehrer which I think is sort of just his obsessive nature and just. Him being a FREAK!! (Love him)
Dwight is Love me Normally by Will Wood(this is important to me I love Dwight I wish I could write him more I just don’t know what to write for him)
I’ve accidentally picked up too many new F/O’s who I haven’t even like. Announced. Because I started watching anime. But I have yet to find songs for them other than I associate one of them with Gimme More by Slayyyter because of an edit and it’s kIND OF EMBARRASSING how predictable he is in my mind and I need to make a post abt the new ones or something eventually,.
Val is Your Body, My Temple by Will Wood. Actually most of my ship tags are song names for them
I can’t think of anyone else rn but. Love them. F/o music is so fun

Who likes celebrating thanksgiving with Jamie?
“Not all of us celebrate, but.. Hannibal is the one who does the big meals. He doesn’t even care about the holiday.. it’s just an excuse for him to go all out. Not that he really needed one.” Dwight chuckles nervously. “I, ah… I worry what the meat is.” He clears his throat. “But, uh, Eddie loves holidays like this. So he can see Jamie dressed nice. He just kind of.. pretends we aren’t there. The holiday is fine for me, I guess.. It’s been a long time since I’ve had people to celebrate it with.”
