hey, i just wanted to say that i really adore your works. “ceremony” KILLED ME with how well done it was,, all the research you did really showed and i am left DYING to know more abt champion’s backstory. you killed it!! i don’t quite know why it resonated with me so much—perhaps the big “rite of passage” culture in my area (hazing at colleges is really extreme here, i live close to lancaster so i think the rumspringa bleeds into other aspects of life even with people that aren’t amish, etc;) i think champion’s own rite of passage was written incredibly well and highlighted the double-edged sword that comes with moving forward. on some aspects i think “to fail would be to suffer in disgrace” as you said, is relatable, and the added “or perish” is not (but it is, when you think about it. last year, my brother’s college roommate died being hazed and i can’t imagine he ever thought he would.) champion’s intertwined horror and determination was incredibly well done and combined with other things—your diction, the slow fall of champion’s classmates—really tied this up wonderfully. (sorry, had to gush) :3

- 🫀

Oh my god?? Thank you!!! I love hearing people gush! Ask away if you want about Champion's backstory! Stormy and I have developed uhhh a lot of detail for it. There's also a companion thing for more through last year's whumptober if you haven't gotten to read it!

I had a really great time writing Ceremony though, and really have to give credit to the erowid experience vault for inspiration on the psychoactive part. Bad trips are a hell of a thing to read about, I already love writing weirdass dream/nightmare sequences, so blending that part in was a lot of fun.

Hazing is a really nefarious part of a lot of cultures I think, it does so much physical AND psychological harm to people for basically no reason. Even worse when it's tied to a religion! When your brain is falling apart from being minorly poisoned and you think your religious authority figure is judging your eternal soul or whatever (in addition to yknow your life potentially being at stake) the pressure is on even harder. With the Yiga in this setting, there are parts that are totally unserious, but in Champion's division, cruelty was just The Point for a lot of it, and I'm still glad that Stormy gave me the green light to put that foot forward for them.

I'm so sorry to hear about your brother's roommate too D: really hope his family got justice for that, that's a terrible loss.

WORKSHOP WENT SO WELL!!!! the students got really into the activities and just did SUCH a good job in the debrief conversation at the end. one of the students also works for our office under my coworker's supervision (although i'd never met her before) and my coworker said the student messaged her after to rave about how fun the workshop was and how good the group discussions were. and at the end one of the professional staff who worked at the center just got up and spontaneously gave a little speech about how much undergrad research had meant to him and how much doing community-engaged work helped him untangle these complicated questions and feelings about his identity and his relationship to his community. it was just really nice!! good group, very good energy, and i think/hope they are going to want to invite us back to do more programming with their students this year. fingers crossed!!!

DIRTYHANDS HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN REPLACED, and in his seat is chubby Club, wearing one of the many hats found in Kaz's closet. Beside the stuffed bird, lying peacefully in the alcove, is a sleeping Ari, curled up in a ball and softly cooing as Club makes the Important Decisions for the night. Overthrowing The Barrel's most renowned criminal was seriously hard work ! 

@earthssprout || 🥺💓

—and Dirtyhands' replacement is almost sat upon, had Kaz not in the nick of time caught the abnormal shape out of the corner of his eye as he rounded his desk.

He falters, gaze previously scanning the stack of orders in his hand now focused for a few lingering seconds on the over-sized plush of a crow seated comfortably in his chair—as if the toy was made to be there. His fingers twitch around his papers, leather gliding smooth along their edges, and Kaz peers at who he knows to be the culprit.

She sleeps soundly. Undisturbed by his return. A series of soft, content noises bubble from her mouth like she's somehow pleased with herself even among dreams, and for some inexplicable reason, Kaz feels a tug on his lips.

But he shakes his head and quietly clears his throat while setting those papers aside, firstly swiping the hat from the toy's head before scooping the plush up in one arm. As he places the former down on his desk to be put away later, he carries the latter over to a dozing Ari, and there, Kaz settles Club down right beside her.

He ensures the crow won't fall, then goes to take back his "throne." And yet, even as Kaz recasts his attention to the work in front of him, he can't help the passing glances he keeps casting her way. Ever observant and watchful.

[kitakami-zorua-kin]

Ok so text has no Intonation so I'm assuming please correct me if I'm wrong? It Sounds a bit like you'd wish Russet wouldn't let himself go so much and use the skills you seem to think he has more, to try and reach his potential? I know you hate him but have you ever considered helping him? I'm speaking solely of considering. Like imagine he approaches you and asks or something.

On that account what do you reckon would need to happen for you to start forgiving him, like if he was seriously having a change of heart and wanted to make amends, what would need to happen? I'm asking this as a person who once went through something similar and I'm curious for others' perspectives.

Also unrelated to this just for fun, what are your favorite battle, non-battle and general favorite Pokémon? Also favourite legendary?

// no worries for the late replies thing, time zones are a thing, its seven in the morning here right now, I just ask stuff when I'm on.

//man I love this Kieran he such a little shit but he also cares a lot though he would probably set himself aflame before admitting that, GUH I hope you'll do another event where he gets a role, later maybe when Russets story has progressed and our favourite edgy champ has had so character growth, I wanna throw some of the things he said, so I said too, Infront of his feet and see him react to it. Also Russet backreading this is gonna be a field day of emotions for him huh? I mean how can onion boy care so much while not caring at all, as he says, hope Russet gets the context.

... It's just infuriating that he doesn't try at all. There's a reason Carmine insisted he go to BBA. He's got this... infuriating innate talent, same as that stupid Dragon Tamer friend of his. They both just waste it - don't develop it all. When you have to fight for every scrap of power, people like that are enraging.

... forgiving him? can i do that...? ... He'd need to stop lying, first. I don't know if it knows how to do that.

... I like Furret. that... seems to be a constant. ... as for battle pokemon, I really like Crimson - my Incineroar. And... Legendaries... I've always like the Ogre - Ogerpon. but... aside from that... Russet liked the Unovan Dragons, a lot. I liked when he'd talk about Reshiram.

why have i only just read the haram smut genuine butterflies it was so good😭😭

Pardon me while I go devour everything on your AO3--

Hdbjabcjjaibcks omg thaaaaaank

[yan-est]

hi there koni! i rly rly enjoyed the yan! househusband hcs and i'm also rly excited to see more of your writing!! with that being said, how did reader even meet yan! househusband? what was their love story like?

AAAAA my first ask⁉️ omg thank you anon, glad you enjoyed the hcs! now here are some crumbs teehee

sfw, implied manipulation

meeting with yan!househusband for the first time would be pretty cute imo. i can't really see him falling in love with someone during his adulthood, especially since that's when all of his issues came up, soooo i mostly see him falling for reader during their high school years together. so now you'd think that they'd be high school sweethearts, right? mmm, not quite.

you, my dear sweet reader, would barely notice him during your freshman year. he wasn't exactly the most popular or the liveliest student around. he was actually the quiet kid who sat in the corner of the class. nobody really paid much attention to younger!yan!househusband, except a lot of people knew that he rides a limousine on his way home. yeah, he's filthy rich.

but then, on the first day of sophomore year, you were late to class and the only seat left was next to younger!yan!househusband. well, not that you were complaining or anything. he mostly kept to himself and only talked when necessary. you thought he was reserved, until one sunny afternoon during lunch break, you caught him doodling on his textbook. when you peeked at it, the person he drew looked a whole lot like you.

that'd be the first time you two would actually interact with each other, but younger!yan!househusband would be an absolute flustered mess when you realized that it was you who he drew on his textbook lmao.

days after that event, you realized that he wasn't actually so bad. he comforted you when all of your friends suddenly left you without any explanation, he made sure to walk you home after school, and most of all, he'd leave snacks on your desk. how did he know your favorite snack…?

eh, well, it doesn't matter. what matters is that every time you think of high school, you'd think of him. he was always there in the picture. always.

so it wasn't really a surprise when the moment you two graduated, he nervously brought out a promise ring and asked you to be his significant other. you found his actions endearing, and so— of course— you said yes. oh, darling, you really had no idea what you were getting yourself into, huh?

[andillneverbethesame]

omg i love your writing!! could you do a taylor swift song prompt of “so high school” x james potter? potentially with a ravenclaw reader?

looove this! so high school is absolutely james coded aaaaa. this is so short but i hope u enjoy anyway<33

so high school

❥ james potter x ravenclaw!fem!reader

❥ warnings; none really

"oi, james!" sirius called his best mate and gestured for james to sit next to him as if he wasn't going to do that anyway.

"good morning, everybody," james smiled at his friendgroup, his eyes lingering on you a tiny bit longer than on anyone else, making your heart flutter and your cheeks to heat up. you glanced back Down on your plate in hopes to hide it.

"james," sirius spoke up again, "marry, kiss or kill; lily, marlene, y/n."

"well, we all know who'd he want to marry," marlene said in a low voice, only for you and lily to hear. lily snorted and you lightly elbowed her.

the girls were convinced that james fancies you just as much as you fancied him. however, you found that hard to believe that someone so perfect like him could like someone like you.

james frowned. "i don't like this game."

sirius rolled his eyes. "oh, come on, you just don't want to say it out loud so you don't hurt anyone's feelings." he tapped on his ear. "whisper it to me."

james lowered his head at the level of his best friend's ear and whispered his answer. you girls tried your best to read his lips but it was no use.

"oh." an amused look appeared on sirius's face and he looked at you. you stared back at him, trying to figure out what he was thinking.

come on, james. are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me?

——————————————————————

the gryffindor quidditch team won the cup.

just when it seemed that they were going to lose against hufflepuffs, james caught the snitch, making the score 250 - 260 for the reds.

you were never more proud of him than in that very moment. you jumped from your seat and yelled his name in a cheering tone, clapping so hard your hands almost hurt. like if he heard you, his brown eyes found yours in the crowd. he grinned and sent you a wink and a kiss. james was thanking you, you were his lucky charm.

that night, the gryffindors threw the biggest party ever. it was many student's last game at hogwarts so it was also a goodbye party. all of the team members were there and talked about the match and their time playing together in general.

quidditch wasn't your thing. you were the stereotypical ravenclaw and you'd much rather be in your bed, under cover and reading a book. but james practically begged you to be there. after all, it was thanks to you that they won. you knew that wasn't the truth but you couldn't say no to him and you were glad you didn't. he looked so happy and beautiful and you couldn't help but admire him.

"let's play truth or dare!" marlene's voice rang through the common room and every person there agreed.

"i think i'm gonna go back to my dorm, it's late," you yelled over the loud music into james's ear.

"nooo," james pouted and give you a puppy look, he got a hold of your hand. "you can't leave now. please? just stay here for ten more minutes."

you sighed. you hated how easily you'll do anything he says.

"alright," you said and let him drag you to the circle of people in the middle of the room. a lot of people had gone to sleep already or some could be found vomiting in the bathroom so there weren't a lot of you. you sat down next to each other and waited for the game to start.

marlene picked up an empty whiskey bottle and spun it around. it landed on mary and she groaned, knowing that her friend has some of the most. . . interesting questions and dares.

"mary," marlene grinned widely. "truth or dare?"

"truth."

the blonde took a few seconds to think of a question before asking, "the freakiest place you did it at."

"that would be. . . a bed of one of my dorm mates."

"what?" lily, alice and marlene asked in terror, each of them wondering whose bed was it.

mary smiled innocently. "my turn," she spun the bottle. and then, everyone glanced at the boy beside you. you let out a sigh of relief.

"jamie, truth o—"

"dare."

a devilish smile crept onto the girl's lips.

"kiss y/n."

your eyes went wide as the people around you let out an "oooooh".

"mary!" you hissed. "what the f—"

before you could finish your sentence, you were rudely interrupted.

he tasted of— well, alcohol. rum and coke, to be exact. but it didn't matter. he was kissing you, and your whole body was on fire, your heart rate raised to at least hundred more beats per minute and fireworks. it was maybe cliché, yes. but it was the truth.

before you could fully register what the hell was happening, he was pulling away, making your lips feel cold at the sudden loss of the warmth of his mouth.

his gaze shifted from your lips to your eyes.

"i imagined our first kiss differently," he spoke in a low voice so only you could hear, sounding disappointed. he reached for the bottle and spun it around so the game could continue.

you stared at him for at least ten more seconds. you couldn't believe what just happened and what he said after.

and you started to wonder that maybe, just maybe, he felt the same way.

——————————————————————

and in a blink of a crinkling eye, you were at sirius's and remus's apartment, sitting on james's lap in the living room. all of your boyfriend’s closest friends were there and just like any other saturday night, you had a film night. tonight, it was american pie.

james and you started dating only recently. it’s been a month,to be exact. so everything felt still really new. and you felt embarrassing for the fact that he still had the same effect on you like when you were bittersweet sixteen. it takes you back to the times when you used to admire him only from afar. but now, you get to kiss him. you get to touch him. 

like, for example, he was just touching you. as you tried to stifle your sighs, everyone seemed to be paying a great attention to the film. except for you two, of course. you coud not focus when james was constantly placing kisses in the crook of your neck and your shoulders.  you could not focus when one of his hands was drawing on the skin of yourupper thigh. you could not focus when his hot  breath made you shudder.

“james,”  you sighed quietly. “you got to stop.”

“and why would i do that?” he whispered back.

you rolled your eyes playfully. “you’re horrible.”

he shrugged. “you love me.”

oh, you did.

out of the blue, he spoke louder, “guys, me and y/n are sorry but we’re pretty tired so we’re headed home.”

huh?

all of your friends looked at each other and than back at you, saying “suuuuureee” in union.

“james, why are we leaving?” you ran outside after him.

he turned around and smiled. “you already know.”

“aw, we’re horrible!” you pouted playfully. “we’re abandoning our friends to have sex.”

“i’m sure they understand,” he said as he opened the door of his car. “remus and sirius used to do that all the time.”

you burst out laughing and let him pull you to the back seat.

no one’s ever had you, not like him.

3am ice cream dates ⟡ aventurine

synopsis maybe waking up aventurine in the middle of the night for some ice cream isn't such a bad idea after all

warnings fluff, gn!reader, modern!au, whipped aventurine like he is in love with you, groggy aventurine (you can't change my mind about groggy aventurine btw)

NOTES HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVORITE BOY MWAH U DESERVE EVERYTHING <33

waking up in the middle of the night wasn't something you were very fond of, especially since you aren't able to fall back asleep immediately. to make things worse, you were on your period meaning that you are now craving for something, specifically ice cream.

unfortunately, there was no ice cream left in the fridge since you finished them all last week and you haven't been able to buy some more since you were too busy to go buy some groceries.

you bit your lip in annoyance, moving to get out of bed. aventurine stirs awake from your movements, squinting his eyes as he adjusts to the darkness of the room. "why're you up? he asks in a groggy voice.

"aven! sorry, i didn't mean to wake you up," you apologized in a hushed tone. "i just... i'm craving for something." you gave him a sheepish smile.

"you seem like you want ice cream." aventurine states, rubbing his eyes as he sits up.

you gasped. "how'd you know?! are you a psychic?"

"you always crave for ice cream when you wake up at midnight on your period, you know that right?" aventurine answers. "of course i'll know what you're craving for."

"aw, you remember these tiny details? you're so sweet," you teasingly poke his cheek to which he just smacks your hand away. "we don't have any ice cream left in the fridge though."

aventurine sighs, climbing out of bed. "then we'll just have to go buy some."

your eyes lit up. "really?! you don't mind?"

through darkness, you were able to make out aventurine nodding. you quickly stand up, kissing aventurine's cheek, and then rushed out of the bedroom door.

(aventurine was so glad that you didn't try to wait for him because you would definitely tease him for his red cheeks).

"aven, hurry! the ice cream shop will close if we don't hurry!" you called out to him. he shakes his head, a small smile displayed on his lips. he quickly grabs his hoodie (and a spare one because he knows you didn't bring one) and his wallet and heads down the stairs.

you were bouncing on your heels, catching the hoodie aventurine throws at you. "ah, thank you!"

aventurine grabs your hand and holds it, opening the door for you. walking to the nearby supermarket, you and aventurine greet the staff member (who looked really tired) and went straight for the ice cream section. you browsed through the different brands and flavors.

aventurine suddenly grabs the ice cream on the top shelf, handing it to you. "this one, right?"

"ah-! you found it!" you exclaimed happily. "thought it was out of stock, phew." you both walked to the cashier, aventurine payed for it, and then walked to a nearby park to sit down.

you hummed happily, opening the ice cream pack and took a huge spoonful out of it, "it's so delicious! want some?" you guided a spoon to aventurine's mouth, and he politely declines.

aventurine pulls you closer to him, cuddling you. "happy now?"

"mhm! thanks, aven." you said, mouth full of ice cream. "sorry you had to wake up this early. i didn't even mean to wake you up."

"it's okay," aventurine replies. "i'd rather spend time with you like this. it's relaxing."

"aw, you're such a sweetheart." you teased, and aventurine frowns.

"okay, never mind, let's go home."

"hey, wait! i was just kidding!" you exclaimed, preventing aventurine from standing up. you took another spoonful of ice cream, the remaining bits of ice cream on the spoon you smeared across aventurine's cheek, making him gasp in shock and because of the coldness of the ice cream.

"hey, what was that for?" aventurine asks. you stood up, slowly backing away from aventurine and the bench.

"nothing- HEY STOP CHASING ME! I'M HOLDING MY ICE CREAM- AAAAAH!" you yelled, as aventurine started chasing after you.

it was no use trying to run away from him though, because for some odd reason, he's a fast runner.

[factual-fantasy]

(Post in question)

AAAAA I'M SO GLAD YOU NOTICED AND LIKED THAT DETAIL!! :DDDD

Though looking back on it, I just kind'a threw it in there thinking it would be neat. But I didn't put too much thought into it or really tried to make it look.. idk cool..??

I guess what I'm saying is that this ask inspired me to go back and put some more thought into Seafoam's coat/hair and how it changes depending on how he's feeling. So thank you for the comment and for the inspiration! :DD

Now idk if any of the cookies from the game have any abilities like this. Where they have some kind of power that changes the properties of their clothing-- but even if they don't, I like this power and I'm keeping it! XD

It also matches Seafoam's personality! He is intended to be a man that wears his heart on his sleeve. And his coat/hat are intertwined with his emotions while he wears them. They're stormy and floaty when in action, and they're droopy and melty when he's down.. They also bubble up and glow when he's happy!

Now he does have some level of control over it. But he doesn't usually try to suppress it. In stark contrast to his friend Octo, Seafoam is not afraid to let his true self show ✨☁ 🌊✨

Ramon had a cute idea for the Huevitos (members of Fit's community) to fill the #ramonbday tag with art and kind messages so he can show them to Fit for his birthday (February 1st), so here's my contribution! I have over 800 Fit-related clips, so it was hard to choose just a few fun moments from stream :'D

Even though the QSMP server won't be open until February 3rd, we still have a few more days to share messages, art, etc. – so if you'd like to post something for Ramon to potentially include in Fit's birthday surprise, make sure to post it by January 31st and use the tag #ramonbday!
