141 + König on your period!

Tw: blood, average period pains

Kyle “gaz” Garrick

The kind of guy to some SERIOUS research on periods and he’s very proud that he knows more than the average man about female anatomy definitely something he would brag about if he got the chance (Also educates his friends on it even if they don’t have girlfriends)

After doing extensive research on your cycle he feels prepared and asks you LOTS of questions “how heavy is your flow?” “What kind of tampons/pads do you use? Is there a brand you like the most?” “what do you crave?”

Definitely is the most educated of all the men (price is a close second)

Always is able to dodge your mood swings even if your pissed he is an expert at calming you down without even realizing it and he doesn’t get angry or frustrated often he’s notorious for being level headed and calm even in high tense situations

He tries to be attentive to you as much as he can and depending how long you two have been together he would slowly learn and memorize the things that make you feel better on your period

Simon “ghost” Riley

He had the common base knowledge of periods (blood, mood swings, cramping, etc)

But after having a few girlfriends he realized it was much more complicated than that. He realized that women can have lots of different symptoms on their period and having a heavy flow vs a light flow

He tries to support you emotionally and physically on your period he basically melts into you every time he sees you laying in bed. He crawls over to you and spoons you so he doesn’t disturb your comfortable position he so huge he basically incases you while you two are together

He loves when you lean on him to help you a bit, he has the house cleaned, the fridge full so can lay in bed all day and worry about nothing it makes him happy that you can depend on him

John price

Price has had his fare share of girlfriends in his life he is familiar with a woman’s monthly cycle and he treats it very casual

He’s your living heating pad, he’s so unbelievably warm. He just wants to hold you all day. He just loves taking care of you :,(

He is the most attentive man istg. When your emotional he gets emotional too, when you cry his eyes start to sting you bring out the crybaby in this full grown man so mood swings are the worst part for him.

But he tries to keep it together for you he cooks for you tries to ease your pain with ibuprofen and hot tea.

John “soap” mactavish

The most clueless out of all of them like he knows what a period is he isn’t completely clueless but he isn’t as educated as some of the other guys on the list

He’s just a little stupid when it comes to women he tries his hardest but he can’t help it

You have to remind him you can’t have sex on your period multiple times because he keeps forgetting

But after a few months he starts to track it on his phone so he can remind himself he definitely has all your period needs in his notes app

So when your talking to him about something you like he immediately gets out his phone and starts putting it in his notes

Definitely tries to baby you on your period but when he realized it pissed you off he stopped

König

He learn about periods at a young age (he was raised by a single mom idc) so he has a grasp fully on how painful and awful they are

He calls his mom and asks her how he can help you the most and after receiving some advice he goes to the store and gets you the main staples, tampons, pads, chocolate, heating pad, and ibuprofen.

He loves being close to you no matter what time of the month it is, if your watching a show so is he, if your taking a shower so is he, if your in the bathroom so is he, if your sleeping so is he. He doesn’t like leaving your side at all especially when your in pain

His mom taught him over the phone how to give proper back rubs (god bless his momma) that’s his secret weapon every time your angry at him and all else fails “liebling, would you like a massage..?”

𝐇𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐝 Part 4: Blacklight

Reflecting on your past can sometimes be the only thing that can help you move on in the present. And other times, it'll just confuse you- simply because you're not ready to understand yet.

♥━━━━━━━━━━•.♡.•━━━━━━━━━━━━♥

Before Jungkook jokingly invested his last savings into a random share on the stock market, he was a looser.

He barely graduated, worked in part time here and there, never able to hold anything long term- neither a job nor a relationship. He'd been lost for so long that his family really lost hope in him- cutting contact at some point, only ever really reaching out to him if his sister needed to have a place to stay at in seoul. It's how he met you in your final year- having spent a new years eve with her at his apartment at one point, driving him crazy with your easy excitement and pretty face. He remembers you having braces, glasses on your nose constantly slipping down during conversations. You were simply adorable.

And so, so horribly out of his league.

He'd been simply some guy working at a 24/7 convenience store, always taking the nightshift so he could take home some leftovers from the coolers to eat as dinner. His hair had been long, dry from having bleached it at some point, clothes dark and plain, apartment small and pitiful in it's existence. Meanwhile, you already knew what you wanted in life, talented in writing, grades not perfect but a bit above average to match his sister's great studying. Even with almost five years separating you both, he felt as if you'd surpassed him already.

It made him more resenting towards you than anything else, really.

How you'd help him wash the dishes, or offer to help him with dropping off his doctor's note at his convenience store to be sent to his boss at a location he himself didn't even knew, but you figured out not even after ten minutes of searching on the internet.

You were pretty. Well put together. A bright future ahead. No cracks in sight.

And there he was, trying to become invisible from society so he can rot away.

"It doesn't matter if it makes sense." You'd said to him one night after his sister had gone to bed, and you'd went to grab something to drink- having found him in front of his laptop on the kitchen floor, scrolling through stock market sites. "If you're interested in something, nurture it. Try and make something out of it." You'd shrugged, bare feet quietly tapping away as you left him alone with himself, his fingers making that fateful click later that night.

He really hated how much he admired you back then, almost idolizing you. But nowadays he knows that in some odd way, you became like a push he'd needed to at least attempt to change his situation into something better- and granted, it did change.

Quite literally almost entirely overnight.

And over the next weeks, and months, way after you'd left his life, he still carried your advice with him. He nurtured his newfound interest, learned more and more and more about it, and suddenly, he wasn't a nobody any longer.

Suddenly, he'd made it.

When he'd met you again years later, Taehyung having brought you along to a casual night at his newly furnished apartment, he instantly recognized you- and he knows you did as well.

And suddenly, that weird hatred flared up again, because you became even prettier now. Standing in front of him wasn't someone young and unsure anymore, but a woman, clear in what she wanted, content in what she had. You never truly complained over your life or any issues, only ever brought a lightness to conversations that felt refreshing and natural.

And at the same time, you began to haunt him again.

Not only with your character, but your looks as well- everything about you just horribly attractive in his eyes, even when you weren't wearing makeup, or were just dressed in a random shirt and sweatpants too wide on your body. It was stupid. It still is.

Because even now, when he's got so much to offer, you still don't look his way.

You still don't pay any attention to him.

And he hates it.

♥━━━━━━━━━━•.♡.•━━━━━━━━━━━━♥

Jungkook was that weird crush you had when you thought you were convinced you didn't like boys at all.

With the way his sister had always talked about him, you'd thought he might've been some weird creep that prayed on underage girls on late night discord calls or something- but he was nice. Yeah, his apartment was a bit messy, his behavior a bit off and withdrawn, but he was nice nonetheless. Not only was he visually attractive, but also in character- a gentle soul tucked away in that tall bulky body of his, only shown in the small gestures he'd send your way. From the quiet moments of washing dishes in his kitchen, soft jokes said here and there, to in depth discussions about whether or not dogs can dream like humans do, or if love was more than just a social construct.

There had never really been any classmate or friend you'd felt truly attracted to- most love interests you had being fictional, as embarrassing as it is to admit that. But in real life, the male gender never really seemed to pull your interest.

And then came Jungkook.

And then, somewhere down the line, something went wrong.

The Jungkook back then, you never hated.

You could never. That guy was soft, gentle, someone you'd seek out whenever the day was bad, or just because you'd crave his company. He was just a little lost- but nothing was ever truly wrong with him.

He changed into what you can now only describe as a self-centered asshole, who really only thinks of you at all if you've got something to offer. He weirdly enough still shows traces of that old Jungkook whenever you're both alone- but add someone else into the mix, mostly any of your shared friends, and he becomes a suit wearing demon in disguise. It's like he looks down on you now- and not only because of the height difference, which in itself was an insult to you.

All of his achievements, all of what he now was just felt belittling to you. Like he was mocking you by simply existing.

Maybe it was internalized sadness over your own success, or lack thereof - having made enough to sustain yourself, but never enough to be comfortable and relaxed about money either, lile he is these days. And then there is him; having simply gotten lucky.

To this day it kills you to see his face in magazines.

Someone like him was bound to get paired up with a model, or designer, or at least someone better than you. And now? Now you're stuck with him in some fake relationship just because you always end up taking whatever leftovers life threw your way. Always. Even when you don't want them, it seems like.

But this might be all you ever get.

You don't want to be Jungkook's pity girlfriend.

You don't want to just fake date him.

So you take it.

♥━━━━━━━━━━•.♡.•━━━━━━━━━━━━♥

"What do you want?" You ask grumpily, really not wanting him here, and he shrugs.

"Jimin said you're not answering him-" Jungkook says in front of your door, white plastic bag in hand. "-and we both know you love leaving me on read, so no surprise there." He chuckles, and in a way, highly probably because of your heightened emotions due to your period (that must be it, nothing else, for sure), you actually feel kind of bad.

You do leave him on read all the time.

"I don't know. Maybe I wanna know what's wrong first." He offers, and you simply cross your arms, signaling to him that there is something wrong- but you don't want to address it. It's basic human behavior- and at this point in his career, he's learned a lot about it.

After all, it shaped him into the perfect man- or at least shaped the way he can behave like one, talented in the art of morphing into whatever he needs to be at any given time.

"Nothing. M' on my period, not feeling good, so that's all there is to it." You dismiss him- but he makes no effort to leave, even putting his foot in between your door to make sure you can't just slam it shut. He loves making life difficult for you, so youre not surprised at all. "What? You brought me pads or what?" You try and jab at him, but he just laughs. If at or about you, you can't be sure. Both ways piss you off equally however- so it doesn't really make any difference for you down the line.

"No, but takeout. Your favorite, in fact." He smiles. "To feed the evil monthly demon, so to speak. If I had known about it sooner from, I don't know- maybe you talking to me, I would've, in fact, even gone out to buy the princess her monthly necessities, if needed." He teases, making you roll your eyes before you hold out your hand.

"Come on, just give it and leave!" You demand, and he laughs whole heartedly now. You hate that you like that specific way of laughter from him. It sounds ridiculous, all high pitched and insane- it's his real way. Not whatever fake shit he pulls off constantly.

It's a glimpse of the Jungkook you wish you could be close to now. But that Jungkook isn't there any longer, having gotten lost in the void as he'd grown up.

"Did you really think I'd just play delivery guy and not wanna have something for it?" He jokes, holding the bag out of reach. "And here I thought you knew me, love." Jungkook teases, and you hate how that small little petname at the end seems to make your stomach churn.

You blame it on the food.

Even later, when everything's eaten, empty containers on your small table in the living room waiting to be thrown away while you lay on your side on the couch, you blame it on everything but him. You blame your period for making you so easy to sway in your decisions, your mood for not wanting to argue, anything.

Anything is better than admitting to yourself that you actually want him here. That you actually enjoy his presence, the way he seems to offer his care for you. Anything is better than that.

And then he lifts your legs from where they're hanging off the side of your couch, up over his thighs- one of his palms resting on your shin while he continues watching the random movie on TV. You wonder why he seems so relaxed. Almost happy to be here. Your apartment is tiny- there's nothing pretty about it, furniture old and the sofa you're both sitting on has seen better days, that's for sure. And yet he's here, face showing him completely content. "You wanna sleep?" He asks, voice gentle, and that's when it happens.

He's being so disgustingly nice to you right now. Has bought you food, is helping you lay down comfortably on the couch, runs his fucking thumb over the bare skin of your leg- you hate it.

You hate all of it.

Unbeknownst to Jungkook, you're very much attached to him. Horribly so, in fact, and you can't blame your hormones every day of the year for that, sadly. Maybe your crush isn't so much past tense as you thought it might have been.

"No." You stubbornly say, and at that he looks over to you, eyes shiny with unshed tears. You don't say anything else for a while, before you can spot his gaze on you. "Stop staring." You again, very stubbornly reply, making him smile. "Haha, funny." You pout into the round green dinosaur pillow- or stuffed animal? He's not sure. All he knows is that he remembers where exactly it comes from. You've always been sensitive like that, easily attached, and it makes him wonder if you really don't like him deep down, because you're not at all attached to him, even though you're connected by much more than just simple time.

He tries, he really does. But there's just no chance with you, it seems like.

"I hate you so much, darling." He laughs, unable to hide his emotions any longer as you're staring him down, cheeks still wet with tears, fingers digging into the green plush dinosaur you'd told him you'd given away because you didn't care- but it's clear to him that you do-

Just as much as he does.

And somehow, in that moment, you feel like you understand what he means when he says he hates you. Because god knows, you do too.

So, so much.

YOU GET IT

I get so pissed and annoyed with this fandom drawing art of Bo hating Vincent and being cruel as adults! Could I see Bo resentful or cruel at a young age towards his twin? Yeah, of course! But for near 20 years all they have is each other in a damn near toxic co dependent unhealthy way because of their shitty parents

BO WAS BLEEDING EVERYWHERE AND VOMITING IN THE SINK WITH AN ARROW IN HIM AND TWO VICTIMS ESCAPED ON THE RUN AND COULD ESCAPE FOR GOOD FOR ALL THEY KNEW AND VINCENT AS HEAD STRONG AS HIS TWIN WENT LOOKING FOR VICTIMS ALONE WHEN BO NEEDED HIM AS A TEAM

I'd be fucking pissed too!!!

And Bo STILL in that moment felt guilty for calling his brother a freak just to hurt him and tried complimenting and reassuring him.

Trust me, I am not good with forgiving ppl that can't apologize bc I personally suck up my pride and do it if I care but then again Bo goes out of his way to talk to Vince right away when my sister would've called me every name in the book, we would've argued and left without a word

And this man that suffered so much trauma and so much hate at such a young age STILL has a soft spot for his twin and STILL tries in his own fucked up way right away to make amends for snapping at him

I'm sorry, yes, Bo is shitty. He's a rapist, sadist, murderer, toxic, manipulative, controlling.

But I physically cannot see fanart of Bo abusing Vincent cruelly bc idc he would never. Istg ppl just saw Bo be mean to his brother in a shitty situation and since he didn't apologize (He tried in his way) then he must be abusive to Vince too! If anything they both resent each other yet if one dies the other might as well die too

No hate to the author who will be unnamed (I don't remember their name anyways 😅) but there was one fanfic of Bo beating his 'wife' reader because another man said hi to her and he does this regularly then ties her up when they got KIDS and I cannot see it. Not for a guy saying hi that was gonna get killed anyways. Could I see Bo 'taking what's his' to mark reader sexually? Sadly yeah his boundaries with women are non existent but a WIFE? He would have to be insane with jealousy and idc I can't see someone finally loving him and putting him first over his twin for the first time ever being his punching bag. A captive reader that develops stockholm syndrome and disobeys? Yeah probably bc he doesn't 'love' them. But a wife with kids???? Uh uh. That man would seperate his domestic life and violence as much as he could just my opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own renditions and dark material but I feel the fandom makes Bo way more hateful than he is

Carly was a woman he instantly looked at as prey and was a victim he knew was dying so if he had to have fun cutting off a finger or SA her in the basement then in his warped mind why not? That imo is ttly different than his brothers or fictional kids or S/o IM JUST SAYING!!

(Sorry for the rambling I have a hard time finding others that see Bo is more than the unreliable narrorator Carly is in the film that is done so subtly and Bo IS a pos that's its easy to overlook)

Also Vincent is shown to be strong and he kills more than Bo does in the movie, he could stand up for himself but he doesn’t, because Bo isn’t abusing him, not to mention him holding Bo’s dead beaten body and cry yelling to the best of his ability, they clearly care about each other.

I feel like people see that one scene and the opening and assume Bo is angry and abusive all the time (also people can write him however they want but I feel like I see a lot of people boiling his character down to just being angry and violent and mean) and he had behavior problems as a kid but just because he did and is mean in one scene doesn’t mean that’s just how he is, people change as they get older, I had anger issues as a kid (I now realize it was probably related to my ADHD I didn’t know I had back then) I acted out when I got mad, I was violent sometimes, now as an adult I don’t act out anymore, I don’t even get as angry, there’s no reason Bo couldn’t have changed or learned to cope as he got older, even with all the shitty toxic shit as a kid, once he was older he could have worked on it himself, we don’t know but like people just assume oh he was an angry kid with behavioral issues and he yelled at Vince as an adult and don’t take in any other context from the scene and decide he’s angry and has anger issues and that’s his entire character.

Also I agree he wouldn’t treat a wife like that, man was not given love as a kid he wouldn’t risk the person who actually loves him, plus we see he clearly cares about Vince, when he tells him ‘Ma would be proud’ he’d be the same way if he fell in love with someone I think, he’d try his best to make up when he did fuck up, he’d show he cares

Is Bo a bad person, yes he very much is, he does horrible things including heavily implied SA, and he has no problem murdering people, but he’s not rotten to the core with no redeeming anything who’s only bad with no good

No one take this as you’re wrong or bad for your interpretation of Bo, if someone wants to write him like that go ahead, you do you, it’s your writing and you should do what you want, I just wish more people looked deeper into Bo’s character and thought more critically instead of just accepting Carly, a victim who only sees a small window of the Sinclair’s life and behavior, as the truth

Actually I think it was one of your posts I saw that made me see Bo this way, you were the one who converted me lol

BLOG POST NO. 12 - WTF IS A BATMAN

If there is one thing that I have learned about the people of this city, it is the fact that literally everyone here loves to gossip. Like seriously, you see it everywhere, from people of all ages, young or old. I’m not complaining about it by any means (I’m Filipino, being a marites is kinda in my blood) but it’s just a little bit jarring to be on the bus, just peacefully minding my own business, then suddenly overhear someone gossiping in the seats behind me.

Which is exactly what happened to me today on my ride to school.

The apparent topic of the day? The identity of the ever mysterious Batman.

I know, I know, the topic has been talked about so much that if you compiled all the conspiracy theories regarding this and printed it out, the amount of paper you’d fill up might just be enough to reach the halfway point between the Earth and the Moon.

But regardless of how overdone this topic is, it’s still a pretty interesting thing to talk about. After all, absolutely no one knows who Batman is, or if he’s even a man in the first place. For all we know, the “man” in his name might be a red herring and he’s actually some eldritch alien sent from beyond the Milky Way to lull the world into a false sense of security so he can open a portal into the Dark Dimension and take over the entire world as an evil overlord.

Too much? Yeah, I think so too— but hey, what else am I supposed to do during my Differential Equations class, actually listen to the lecture? Pssh, nahhh— my attention span is way too short to sit through an entire 3 hours of just constantly being bombarded by numbers (I am so fucked).

Anyway, back to the topic at hand— Batman’s identity.

I’ve seen so many theories floating around about this, but only two in particular are that memorable for me personally. Well, three if you count the last one (we’ll get to that).

The first theory was that it might be this dude named Harvey Dent (had to look him up— and man, all I can say is that I’m sorry), but uh certain events have completely debunked that. If you live in Gotham then you know exactly what I’m talking about, and if you don’t then uh go do a quick internet search, I’m too lazy to spoon feed you all the information you need (you gotta learn how to do your own research somehow).

Then there’s the whole “Batman is Bruce Wayne” thing which is like, okay, I know where they’re going with this but at the same time I’m kinda ehh on it, you know? For one, Bruce Wayne looks too much like a personified teddy bear (I have said this once and I’ve said it again) to be the civilian identity of the literal definition of darkness and “it’s not a phase” but bat furry coded. I just don’t think the dude that flirts with women and men (istg the amount of times the tabloids just conveniently skip past this— I know for a fact I’m not the only one who’s seen that photo of this dude grab the waist of that male reporter from the Daily Planet— I see them) every chance he gets is the same guy who puts on a bat costume (am I allowed to make another furry joke?) to beat up bad guys in the middle of the night.

So what I’m trying to get at here is that I see the point being made, and I acknowledge it, but I just feel like we need more concrete evidence, you know?

I hope to fuck that I did not just summon an entire mob to come after me for that last bit.

Anyhow, onto my final theory, which is the fact that Batman might just be a cryptid born from the shadows of Gotham herself. This connects to the whole “Gotham is alive” conspiracy that started circulating around a few years ago. I don’t know how popularized it is, but it ended up reaching me when I was browsing through some forums a couple weeks back and honestly, even if it’s not true, it makes for an interesting thought. Because hey, what if cities are alive? That’d be interesting (and is also mildly terrifying).

The basic idea of this theory is the fact that Batman, thanks to being a cryptid and all that, isn’t actually human and therefore doesn’t have a human identity. He’s just Batman. As for why Gotham made him in the form of a human, not many people really answer this question (or more like no one really bothers to ask), but here’s my thoughts: I think Gotham made Batman into a humanoid because we as humans are often more inclined to be comfortable with something if it’s in the form of something familiar to us (hence, human). Like, imagine if Batman wasn’t human and was something like a massive blur of shadow and tendrils— wouldn’t that freak you the fuck out? Regardless of whether or not it saved you, you’ll still feel fucking terrified of it. But if it’s someone that just looks like a dude in a costume, then doesn’t that make you a little less scared? (I say “a little less” because let’s be real, human or not, Batman excels in being terrifying)

Well, that’s all under the assumption that the whole “Batman is a Cryptid” and “Gotham is Alive” are true.

Or that Batman even exists.

I’m pretty sure he does but there’s a lot of people that are saying otherwise, so I feel like I should at least acknowledge the fact that some people think he’s not real? Like, I even have classmates who say that Batman is just a tale told to kids so they don’t misbehave and stay out for too long— which, okay, that’s fair. I’ve heard my fair share of scary stories and beings throughout my childhood as well to be honest— also from adults who thought it’d be a great way to keep me obedient (mostly my titos and titas, my ma and pa never really liked scaring me or my brother)

Buut, I’m going to have to disagree with those points because I’ve heard Red Hood talk to his little earpiece thing (yes, Red Hood, I know you have one, because literally every vigilante/hero in a team should— no, I do not care if you say you’re a crime lord, you saved me from a mugger, get over it). And you know who he called out to one time? Batman.

And okay, to be fair, Red Hood could’ve just said the name to keep convincing people that Batman is real when he’s not, but honestly I don’t think Mr. Bleeding Bat Symbol over here would be that dedicated in making Gotham believe in something that isn’t real.

But I digress.

Do I actually care about Batman's real identity? Absolutely not. As long as the dude doesn’t bother me then I have nothing against his questionable life choices (I mean come on, what kind of life choices lead you to dressing up like a crime fighting bat?).

And also he keeps Gotham marginally safer, I guess, so that’s a win in my book.

As for the whole “What’s Batman’s relationship with Bruce Wayne?”— I've also given it some thought.

And honestly a part of me thinks they might be exes… or divorced.

But that’s a ramble for another time— I need to study for my next class.

(SA cause no that's hilarious)

"Oh hello? Are you here for someone?" Alma asked smiling at the children of prominent and influential families in their community. She did not know why they were at her door but she was not going to be on anything but her best behavior with them around.

"We came to visit our friend if that is alright Dona." The son of the villages doctor outside of Julieta said adjusting his glasses a bit.

"Oh that is perfectly fine. I just wasn't expecting you is all. Please please come in." Alma said waving them in and wondering which of her grandkids were friends with these boys. Probably her perfect Isabela.

"We wanted to surprise her." Two of the boys, the twin sons of the seamstress in town if she wasn't mistaken, said grinning.

Alma merely chuckled and waved them all in. Of course her Isabela had made friends with the sons of the wealthiest and most influential. She expected nothing less.

"Please make yourselves at home. I'll be-"

"Guys?!" The voice from the kitchen made Alma frown. Mirabel. Why was she on the kitchen and why did she seem shocked? Surely she knew of her sister's friends.

"Mira!" The influential boys all brightened up and swept past Alma to go and greet Mirabel.

"Oh if it isn't the smelly apes." Another person was standing beside Mirabel, two more flanking the taller girl. Almas eyes widened.

Why were the daughters of three families just as influential as the boys here? And with Mirabel?

"Oh great it's the Zuka club." Alma hears one of the twins mutter under his breath.

The tallest boy was striding towards Mirabel with a purpose and Alma watched as the son of the head captain gently cradled Mirabels face.

"You're injured. Who did it?" The boy asked his voice deep and solemn. Instantly all of the boys looked alert and pissed.

"Wait she's hurt?"

"Is that why didn't meet up with us in town?"

"Who hurt my beloved Mirabel!?"

"Hm."

"Are you okay Mira?"

Alma watched as the boys fussed over Mirabel in detached shock while she gave an amused sigh and reassured them she was fine and it wasn't anything to worry about.

"I think a grown man your mother's age belting you in the face and breaking your jaw is something to worry about Angel. But at least the Zuka club was there to help and get some justice done on the man. Unlike you boys." The tall girl said and a smaller blond girl that Alma vaguely recognized as the daughter of the fruit seller, the biggest produce producer and seller, was already poking Mirabel into eating another arepa.

"Give me a name." The shortest boy, wasn't he supposed to be a fighting prodigy? He was the son of the security corps..he looked so young..., Said and his voice was cold and stern.

How...how did her giftless useless granddaughter know these children of prominent families?!

NAH CAUSE ALMA REALLY THOUGHT HUH 💀💀

She was so surprised when she saw them gushing over her. Absolutely floored. Like omg, the giftless one has friends, who are very influential 😦 how dare she!1!!!11! Surprised she didn’t: realize befor,e but then again, she pays pretty little attention to her, so there’s that. Host club and Zuka club def compete for Mirabel’s attention and she’s just like “all of y’all are my friends”.

Istg if Alma tries something, Imma put her on a shirt 😩

Anyway have the weird??? Continuation idk. Something that came to my mind, and I kinda rushed it, so excuse any bad writing dawg 😩

———

As Mirabel was being fussed over by both the Host Club and Zuka Club, Alma thought hard for a moment, before she ultimately backed out of the room, leaving the group of teenagers alone.

"Really, I'm fine! Beni, Suzu and Hina took care of him and I ate some of my mama's food! So I'll be fine," Mirabel said as Suzuran placed yet another arepa into her hand.

"Fine. But if I find out who did this to you, I won't spare him," Honey said darkly, before he suddenly perked back up and hugged Mirabel tightly.

"Hm yes...anyway. We've actually come on another occasion. We need to discuss your party that's in 8 months." Kyoya said, looking down at a couple pieces of paper he had on him.

"Party?" Mirabel asked curiously.

"Yes. Your quinceañera of course. We need to know the theme so we can be properly dressed and what time so we can arrive on time." Kyoya said, slightly confused at how Mirabel seemed to surprised at what he said.

"Ah...about that. I don't...I don't think I'll be getting one." Mirabel said, visually dejected.

"WHAT?!" Almost all of them yelled out, save for Mori, but even he look shocked.

"What do you mean you won't be getting one?!" Benio said, hands on her hips as she stared at Mirabel.

"Well...my family is just so busy, and no one ever stuck around to plan with me in the past 2 years. You guys are actually the only ones outside of mi papa and Toñito to ask. But it's ok! They're always so busy, so I'll just have to have a small party or something..." Mirabel tried her best to look optimistic, but it was clear to those surrounding her that she was genuinely hurt.

"We'll plan it." Tamaki said and all eyes were on him. "We'll do all the planning to your liking and we'll get everything ready in time. I will not let you go without a quince. It is a right of passage, and you deserve it more than anyone."

"W-What? You don't have to do that, it's way too much, I couldn't accept that! I couldn't pay you back, there's the food, the dress, the party decorations...and Abuela will never let it happen at Casita," Mirabel frowned, panic present in her voice.

"Well we handle the location." Kyoya said, adjusting his glasses. "Mori, Honey, could you ask the captain if he could have the town square cleared for March 6th?" Mori nodded and Honey enthusiastically gave a thumbs up.

"I can handle the food catering," Suzuran said, flipping her blond hair. "I'll just ask my parents to help cater to the party, it shouldn't be a problem."

"And I can handle your cake! My father is the best baker in the village, so we can go back to my place together and plan it out." Hinako said, smiling gently at Mirabel.

"But...there's the decorations and..." Mirabel trailed off when she noticed Tamaki perk up.

"Have you met me? My precious Mirabel, I'll take care of that. You just choose a theme and I'll have it done like that," he said, snapping his fingers.

"Well...I won't be able to finish my dress on time! I have to tend to Casita and do other stuff, I only have the design written down," Mirabel argued, trying to refute her friends' attempts to give her a party out of guilt.

The twins laughed, throwing their arms over Mirabel. "That'll be no problem! We can got your dress," Hikaru said, pinching Mirabel's cheek.

"Our mom loves you, and once she hears that you need a quince dress, she'll put it at the top of her projects list. Just hand over the design and we'll have our mother make it," Kaoru finished, pinching her other cheek.

"I...I don't have a court," Mirabel said slowly.

"We'll be your court," Tamaki said, pulling a rose from God knows where, and tucking it gingerly into Mirabel's ear, sweep her into a ballroom like dance. "We'll be the best court, better than any of your cousin or sisters'," Tamaki, letting Mirabel go, her landing right back into the center of the group. Both the Host and Zuka club might be rivals, but they were willing to put that aside if it meant Mirabel could be happy.

"For music we'll ask the local band to play, and as for your first dance and changing of shoes, we'll inform your father of what will be happening, along with your cousin, Antonio." Kyoya said as wrote something down. "You may inform your other...family...if you wish, but its ultimately up to you."

The girl stuttered, trying to find words as she looked among the Host and Zuka Club members. Tears welled up in her eyes and they were all over her again as she cried into her hands.

"Why are you crying little Angel?" Benio said, moving to wipe the tears from Mirabel's eyes.

"I'm...I'm just so happy and grateful...no one's ever done something this nice for me before," Mirabel whimpered, sniffling. "Thank you! So much..." She said before sobbing harder, and both of the groups smilied as they continued to comfort the girl.

ALRIGHT here’s just a paragraph of me putting my thoughts on this chap and stuff for next chap since i’ve no where else to put it 💀💀

This was the absolute most CUTEST chapter yet it was just so nostalgic and beautiful, the scene of her imagining jean and her brothers back to them as young boys made me smile and i couldn’t stop it was honestly so beautifully written and i LOVED it

and then Prince Phoenix AHHHH this man bruh so hot so respectful and literal green flag as a man and when he was with the bunny oh my god i loved it idk why but it was like a scene of proving he has good intentions the way he reacted to it and held it ygm? and when they were walking in the rose garden and fucking jean and ambrose coke out of the bush…💀💀 i cant fucking wait to see how jean felt in that scene if you end up putting it in next chap since you said bits of it will be from that week in his pov but i honestly do really like phoenix so far BUT this guy is blind asf i’m sorry… idc what anyone has to say no way this guy couldn’t see she was uncomfortable and sad after the engagement now this isn’t me saying he shouldn’t of proposed IM SAYING he’s blind that he didn’t hug her like i know it’s hard this guy was so happy and blind anyone could of seen through that fake ass smile girl was about to break 😭😭 but i think how he went with the proposal was cute and especially his little speech he understood

and when my girl broke 😭😭 i was so sad man and the way she felt so embarrassed when jean saw her made me break for her even more, felt for that girl fr

WHEN JEAN WAS BANGING ON THE DOOR ANF WHINED AUGHHHH JUST WAITING FOR Y/N TO TOP HIM SO THAT CAN HAPPEN AGAIN.

I’m sorry but i understand it’s hard for mikasa but i hated how she was treating her as a stranger to try distance herself even tho this was a time she needed her best friend the most like oh my god mikasa get your ass back in the game before i get parasite y/n in here to steal your man..

and i’m sorry but why haven’t i seen anyone except for like one talking about the KEY scene of this entire chapter which is probably gonna set up for a new BIG BIG part of the plot??? Levi and Y/n’s fight i called it istg it’s like when she had bad intentions so will her powers? so that’s why i’m scared for her when or if she loses control cause her stubbornness and emotions have been so high these past like two chapters and it’s only gonna get worse 😭 but oh my god that fight scene was so good and i was honestly afraid for levi when he started coughing man i fucking loved how she took her anger out tho it was so cool

OH I NEWTLY FORGOT TJE BEST PART WHAT. My favourite part was the parts of her and jean in his room and how they slept together it was all so cute. how she was naming constellations and he seemed genuinely interested and talking about the future n shit and how he went asleep and she went asleep on him AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. AHHHHXHXHXJXJJSJSJS MY HEART AND STOMACH AT THAT SCENE BRUH I SWEAR TO ABSOLJTE FUCKING GOD. And how she’d always go back that week. i don’t care what anyone says.. i know it was so small but the best part of the entire chapter for me was hearing how he’d day at night how she can’t come back but every day he’d ask if she was going to be coming over tonight my heart sunk into my stomach in a good way literallt resting on butterflies it was the best fucking part for me

AND JEAN AT THE END???? man what’s up with this guy and pulling her waist? not complaining tho, this guy definitely loves her waist or some shit tho 😭 it was so cute how he was just behind her speaking and getting closer and then brought her in for a hug from behind like oh my god i fucking loved it now i cant wait for him and phoenix to be in a room alone 🥺🤞

NOW FOR NEXT CHAP

bruhhhh smut smut smut m m mmmmmm i cant wait like i just know he’s gonna be slow n shit and the fact he HAS to be slow since she’s a virgin and let’s be honest this guy probably hasn’t had sex in a long while since he’s been so busy and doesn’t seem to be going out as much so HES gonna be holding on for dear life literally edging himself the entire time and i just KNOW this guy gives the best after care let’s be honest like look at how he hugged her when she heard her parents, untied her corset cause he knew it was bothering her and the way he done it AUGHHHSHDHDJD and how he was hugging her from behind at the end and how he was banging on the door and didn’t care if he got caught and hoe he didn’t want to fight with her and just wanted to be with her and just stay with her like oh my god this guy…

ALSO AMARA FUCK YOU WE’VE BEEN STARVED OF CRUSHING MARCO FOR WEEKS NOW.

Speaking of starving we’ve been starved of Amara’s immaculate smut for a total of FIVE fucking months now… FIVE. AND NOW WE’RE FINALLY GETTING IT????

and prince phoenix.. i know i praised him when i was talking about him but i didn’t wanna include this there since thag was kind of a look back of last chap but i don’t trust him.. i also know amara’s ways from parasite so i don’t trust him if im bring honest.. he’s too good to be true i feel like he knows a thing or two about y/n and her powers or at least his parents do but i think he’s way too good to be true and i don’t think it’s a coincidence he picked y/n and he’s also the like less sus person which i think is sus 💀💀 but idk i could just be looking into it too much but i don’t think so 😇😋🤲

anyways sorry if this was really long 💀 just needed somewhere to put my input on this chap 😍🤲 definitely my favourite so far couldnt stop smiling the whole way through it 😭 love you amara mwah 💗💗💗

OMG I LOVE THIS SO MUCH I LOOOOOVE WHEN GIVE ME LONG DETAILED DETAILS/FEEDBACK ITS MY FAVORITE

i’m gonna respond back to each paragraph so hold on:

the part where yn envisions her brothers as siblings was definitely the hardest part to write for me and even though it’s in the beginning of the chapter, it was the very last scene i wrote because i was struggling so much with it like i wanted it to be perfect

prince phoenix definitely did notice she was sad, in the part where she says he was talking to her as she walking him to the gates but she was zoned out and wasn’t listening, he asks her what’s wrong and tells hers stuff and that’s why he hugs her because he feels bad (it’ll get more into it in this next chapter)

the part where she runs to her room crying was one of my favorite scenes to write, i know this sounds HORRIBLE and u guys are gonna be like “yeah bitch we can tell” but i LOVEEEE writing gut-wrenching, heartbreaking scenes like it’s my fav kind of scene to write and the fact that i got that emotion out of ppl makes me happy in the sense that i got my point across like the point was for the reasons to feel her pain and that’s what happened so YAY ME (sorry y’all)

jean hanging on the door LMFAO i just had to include the veronica scene because first of all HOT, second because i feel like jean is always so nonchalant and pretends he isn’t bothered and that scene is one of the first scenes we really see him worried about her and putting his pride aside fully by begging and pleading her to talk to him which is massive for his character development

with mikasa, i understand both sides like i get why mikasa wants to distance herself because she feels like it’ll hurt less to say goodbye but also like she needs to be there for yn when she really needs her, also mikasa is getting more attached to eren since she knows eren is gonna be here forever and yn won’t, it’s kinda like she accepting she has to move on but you’re right she shouldn’t be cold toward her atleast LMFAO NOT U SAYING PARASITE YN IS GONNA STEAL HER MAN

yesss the levi scene is definitely detrimental to the storyline in so many ways, the readers can kinda see the connection that her powers are controlled by her intentions si since she’s always so kind and caring, her attentions are always good but right now, she’s starting to go through some tough shit and her emotions are everywhere to the point where she can no longer control/hide how she feels which correlates with her powers as well

and YES we do see those couple days from jeans pov in the next chapter so he’s pov on when they’re outside running around, when she’s asleep on him, when she goes over every night, when he finds out yn got proposed to etc he also goes and reads the letters she sent years ago so i’m excited for u guys to read that as well

jean touching her waist has a lot more significance than people realize, he’s known her his entire life and only has touched her hands/arms/shoulders because they never were close like that. now that he’s getting closer to her, he’s able to touch her in more personal spots aka her waist, that’s also why he has a habit of always lifting her chin up too because he couldn’t touch her face like that before either

the SMUTTTT it’s gonna be real good like i’m so hyped for it and i know all these bitches are too LOL it’s been MONTHS since i’ve written smut so i’m really excited to get back into it and i think this one is a tad bit more exciting for me because like you said yn is a virgin so he is gonna have this overwhelming feeling that he has to be gentle while having to hide the fact he wants to fuck her brains out LMFAO

and crushing marco comes out this next chapter don’t worry!! especially since it’s marcos pov and the two are friends, you’re gonna see a lot more of the men interactions (jean even speaks to phoenix too but shhhhh)

“amara’s way from parasite” HELPPPP i really traumatized you guys with that book i swear 💀💀 every comment is like “FORESHADOWING???” or “AMARA WHAT IS THIS”

B2:S - Chapter 5

Much of this series will be about the differences and additions in the novel version, and how they contribute to my understanding of story canon. But there will be character appreciation, the odd theory and headcanon, and suchlike as well.

Here be lots of Viren deets, Best Boy Soren deets, some writing/continuity stuff, worldbuilding appreciation and half of a theory, Detective Rayla, Moon Temple geeking, Claudium and dark magic, and more!

Spoilers for Book Two: Sky below.

(I know for darn sure that I wrote up a post for chapter 4, but I can't find it anywhere so I guess Tumblr ate it and I'll have to redo it at some point, but today is not that day)

Viren, my evil dude, my bad guy, coming in clutch with the worldbuilding and backstory again! If you want to know decades of information, you gotta talk to Viren. Or read his scenes, at least. Here, he seems to not sleep much when he has a big problem to analyze his way through. Solutions trump pretty much everything else in this guy's life, and he's had a really hard week with a lot of new and complicated problems. Of course he's getting sleep-deprived trying to find his way through them all.

Harrow put so much trust in Viren when he made him High Mage! He just threw himself extra hard at that Lady Justice blindfold, didn't he? Didn't really want to see what Viren was doing in his magic study, so he left Viren to his devices. And Viren has a lot of devices.

Also, this is fascinating: Viren made the secret passage to his "less official study" in Katolis Castle! And he was inspired to do so by the way his own mentor kept the Puzzle House. What else could a Puzzle House be, except a place with secret passages? Yay! secret headcanon that "the Puzzle House" is just "Katolis Castle" from Kid Viren's perspective tho

So either Viren built all of those passageways, or at least the ones to his dungeon. Which means he has to have, or know where to get, a stash of those glowing blue Moonshadow crystals. Hmmm.

I can't wait to learn more about Kpp'Ar and young Viren, btw. From this description of Viren and all his literal secret ways, it feels like another parallel between Viren and Runaan, with the whole "secretive paths, members only, insider knowledge" type stuff. Only the really cool members of this cult club get to know the secrets, and guess what, kid, you're cool now but you can never tell anyone, okay? Our secret.

Yeahhh, that'll never backfire in any way for either of them.

Kpp'Ar calling puzzles and secrets "man-made magic," though. Yes sir, knowledge is indeed power.

This chapter mentions Runaan by name, from Viren's perspective. Generally that would imply that Viren knows his name, even though assassins do not share their names, and Runaan didn't seem to give his to Viren in the first book. However, there was a scene in book one where the last paragraph switched perspective from Viren to Runaan - a technique that's very common in visual media like movies and shows and gives you that "ohoho they left the room and didn't notice this, but you do!" vibe. Using Runaan's name there in book one, where Viren couldn't see it but readers could, helps them keep track of the assassin's story arc while maintaining Viren's racism.

So in book two, in which Runaan has no onscreen scenes (alas), using his name in a scene that calls back to the events in book one helps us remember what happened in that dungeon cell. It would be a bit muddier to recall the specifics if Viren kept thinking about Runaan as "Elf." So I'm cool with the perspective nudge because it serves a narrative purpose: clarity. But I'm also enjoying the angst of considering that, somehow, Viren learned Runaan's name either during or after the coining spell. Mwa ha ha haaa. (Obligatory "Keep my pretty name outta your mouth" goes here)

Okay, back to Viren's scheming! He took the mirror because it was human-sized in a dragon lair. He knew it didn't really fit there, and that made it interesting, so he stole it. But he realized it was really powerful when Runaan wouldn't tell him squat about it - the assassin's instinct to protect Xadian secrets from human hands meant that Viren was holding a very powerful Xadian secret. And that just made him want it all the more. Ah, Runaan, if only your relationship with lying was, like, the exact opposite of what it is. Nyx could've spun Viren a believable tale in 2 minutes flat.

Also of interest: Viren considers his cursed coins to be a final fate. He expects Runaan to remain in his coin forever. With the Chekhov's coins still extant in the storyline, we can assume that they'll come up again eventually, but Viren has no current plans to do anything with his elf money except carry it around.

It's worth noting that Viren admits that he got impatient when he trapped Runaan in the coin. Runaan's first fate in Katolis was supposed to be death at Soren's hands, but Claudia "saved" him from that. His next fate was to become spell components, but Viren's frustration with his stubbornness "saved" him from that fate, too. So now he's in a coin, where no one can chop him up at all. Yay? No, boo!

We get one last line about Runaan before Viren shifts gears: he makes a point of noting for us that Runaan's shackles are still locked shut. However much of Runaan made it into that coin - body, soul, hair care products - he was magicked there, pulled right out of his restraints.

The creepy black liquid that Viren pours right into his eyes is the last of a powerful potion he got from Kpp'Ar, and its recipe is ancient! Humans used it back in the age of Elarion to see through the illusions of the world. And we get a delightfully creepy bit of description about the preparation of this serum, which makes it abundantly clear that it's a Moon magic-based concoction, harvested from eyeless vipers on a moonless night, with the threat of irrevocable madness ("madness" by whose definition, though) if it's done wrong-

Hang on. Hold up. This is a Plato's Cave reference. OH MY GOD.

No no I'm fine, this is brilliant. Sorry, sorry, I couldn't figure why there was so much description for a potion prep that Viren didn't even have to perform himself. But now I get it. I see the light. HA. I should make a separate post for this, it's amazing.

Anyway, for reference, the humans who used this serum were called the Oracles of Ophidia, and Ophidia is a taxonomy group that includes all modern snakes. Can you say "creepy ancient snake rites"? I can! Woo!

Viren activates the serum with a spell, but apparently he's never done it before. He's not sure if it's supposed to be hot and bubbly, and he worries that it's been tainted by moonlight.

Oh, I do hope so.

The magic potion hurts, a lot. Viren will do just about anything, to himself or anyone, to do what he believes is necessary. He just risked madness and blindness to find out what this mirror does! Viren. Can you just. Take a nap or something. Have a Snickers.

This chapter gives us a fun clue that I don't remember from the show: when Viren's vision clears and he can see, his reflection has white pupils and the room reflected in the mirror has inverted colors. You know where else has inverted colors?

You know who else got white pupils for a hot second?

Okay, now it makes sense! Viren and Lujanne were both seeing into the realm beyond life and death. Him with his moon magic potion, and her with her moon powers on a full moon night at the Moon Nexus. Which is Very Interesting! Is it a direct hint about Aaravos's location, or just a separate cool detail? Orrr, does it look like a direct hint because Aaravos is actually trapped in the world beyond life and death, but it's actually separate and we'll see something about white pupils again later on?

Viren really does have self-esteem issues, we all picked up on it with his rant at his reflection. He throws a fit when he catches himself wondering if he's actually worthless. In the book version of his tantrum, he shoves the mirror and hurls a candelabra instead of flipping a table. He didn't need to shove the mirror to set the fire, but it's in here. Foreshadowing that perhaps, if push comes to shove, Viren will choose himself over Aaravos? Giving Aaravos time to peek through and see that the coast is clear?

Soren, my boyyyyy. He has a rough night at the Moon Nexus because two sides of him are fighting with each other. He struggles to understand Callum's friendship with Rayla, and he also fantasizes about chopping off Rayla's head. One of these is a pretty ordinary thing to do. The other is Soren's internalization of what he needs to do to gain his father's approval. If he brought his dad a chopped off elf head every week, he'd probably feel a lot more confident because Viren would praise him a lot more.

Okay, okay, omg, is it just me, or does the "Moonshadow Madness" story, as it's told in the book, seem like Soren just doesn't know what a monsterfucker is? He thinks an elf bite puts humans under a spell. But vampires are sexy, and some people want them to do more to them than just bite them. A passionate kiss under the moonlight could look very bitey, especially if one of the participants has horns and you're already culturally trained to hate them. No yeah, I'm already headcanoning an actual human-elf kiss that got misunderstood by an observer long ago.

it's Lujanne isn't it, we all know, because what is a love spell but a sweet soft illusion, I mean how else does she get supplies for her Caldera, I ask you, and also Corvus was totally sent to investigate once and he told Soren at camp what he saw

And then back to magefam angst: Soren pretending that his sister's nose-tapping is stupid, even though he actually thinks it's cool, just because their dad thinks it's stupid. Viren, istg. Let your kids like harmless things. It's so cute that Soren taps his nose back at her, though! Like they have their own sibling code. I hope we get to see the nose tap again, especially now that they've chosen different sides. It could mean so much, that they're not too far apart yet.

Rayla knows what buttery pancakes smell like. I love this. Do Moonshadow elves have butter and pancakes, does Rayla eat a stack of eight giant pancakes in the morning? Orrrr it is just illusion food? I don't care, let Rayla have pancakes! Everyone loves pancakes. Pancakes will save the world. this message brought to you by the fact that I can't eat pancakes rn, send help

I love that Rayla is both sus of the pancakes and hungry, and that combines into a very motivated "I will get to the bottom of this" attitude. She kind of goes into Poirot Mode when she inserts herself into Soren and Ellis's conversation about Ava, explaining about the wolf's illusion leg and segueing into her claim that the pancakes taste sus. Claudia confirms she used dark magic, and Rayla is furious. It's different than the show's version in that it puts Rayla in detective mode, as the only Moonshadow elf in the scene, and boy does she take that role seriously. Also, she doesn't actually swallow the dark magic pancake bite. It ends up on the ground just like Lujanne's grubs from that earlier meal. These poor kids are so nutrient-starved. You guys gotta eat!!

Rayla's determination and prejudices and the fact that she super knows Harrow is dead all dovetail to make her try repeatedly to persuade Callum that Soren and Claudia are Not To Be Trusted. It's nice that the book keeps taking the time to point out that Rayla is Well Intentioned But Flawed, just like Callum and pretty much every other character in the show. No one is Right All The Time, no one Knows More Than Everyone Else.

Callum loving the sound of Claudia's unique voice is so wholesome. When you like someone, it only makes sense that you like all the things about them that they can't change - like the sound of Claudia's voice. Her choices with dark magic, not so much!

Claudia seems to have the same concerns Soren does about Callum's relationship with Rayla, but she comes out and asks him. The inherent possession implied in "your elf" is interesting, though. Elves are not people to Claudia. They're enemies who can be disassembled for the magic inside them. So maybe more like robots than living beings, if she knew what a robot was. Maybe she heard Soren's "Moonshadow Madness" story and realized he totally missed the kissing implications - but she didn't, and now she's genuinely worried that Rayla could kiss Callum under a full moon and enchant him to do her will. Good thing it's only a half moon, then!

Okay, Callum nervously making a puppet hand and then not knowing what to do with his hands and freaking out about itching and moving and pointy elbows is such a ND mood. The sudden stress of knowing that someone else is noticing your existence and maybe you're Not Existing Right, amirite? Ugh, poor Callum.

The Moon Temple! Omg it's so pretty in the description! Made to be beautiful and useful, full of knowledge but also allowing light and life inside (butterflies and vines). Lujanne, when can I move in, please? Also, it's all the more angsty because Lujanne is the only one who gets to see this beautiful place, but it has lots of chairs and shelves and tables, and it was meant to be used by lots of people. :(((

Claudia knows some of the runes on the walls. She isn't in a hurry to copy the rest of them down or anything, either. Her spellwriting is very precise, and she's a skilled mage. Her father would have made sure she was aware of the dangers of drawing sloppy runes, as much as he made her aware of the dangers of doing dark magic wrong. And the whole point of dark magic is that it's easier to learn than primal magic. Claudia supports her dad and their shared knowledge and life path. She's not gonna go nuts over an elf library she can't translate.

Side note: Between Claudia knowing some Moon runes and Viren building a secret passageway and a dungeon and lighting it with the same blue crystals that Lujanne and Ethari use for light--and Claudia exclaiming that she loves ruins--I wonder once more if there are really Moonshadow ruins somewhere in Katolis, which Viren has found and looted. Father-daughter relic hunting trip, maybe while Soren is away at camp? Omgsh that would be so wild!

Callum out here having a Viren moment with his "I feel powerless unless I've got magic that lets me help" vibes. God. I love their complicated mirroring. One of the hard differences between them is that Callum is very sure dark magic is bad because you have to kill stuff and take its power to cast spells, and he doesn't want to be a person who kills and takes like that. The line he walks to be nice to Claudia on their tour of the Cursed Caldera because he likes her, while telling her that he doesn't want to do her magic, like, ever, is so fine that it might as well be a shifting shadow on the ground. It's a very fitting conversation to be having during the half moon, with its tricks and little white lies.

Callum being out of the castle and his comfort zone, having to deal with the fact that the Claudia he loves is not quite the Claudia who's chasing him down across the kingdom, but of the two of them, he's the only one with a problem with this.

They say that if you really want to get to know someone, you should spend time with them outside their comfort zone - in heavy traffic, with a small baby, taking care of a new pet, trying a new skill, following unfamiliar directions, etc. While the castle is familiar territory for them both, Callum's never really found his comfort zone yet, while Claudia is pretty comfortable with her growing skill set. The creepy part starts to kick in when Callum begins to realize that Claudia's comfort zone encompasses a whole bunch of stuff that seems like it should make her uncomfortable... but it doesn't. But that'll be for a future chapter!

I'm in the mood for fluff today, so can I request one?^^ A song-fic, Perfect by Ed Sheeran with GE Saeran? Imagine me and him dancing in the garden when night comes is such a lovable daydreaming

Thank you so muchh if you are taking my request<3

🎀 That is so adorable! Istg you guys are so good at giving me fluff headcanons ^∆^ 🎀

Perfect

Fandom: Mystic Messenger

Pairing: GE Saeran x Reader

Category: Fluff

Warnings: X

Word count: 2884

Author's Note: Do you guys know the movie "A quiet place"? It's the scene where they dance that inspired me for this one^^

Summary: You enjoy soft love songs, it's one of the first things you told Saeran after escaping Mint Eye.

It gives him an idea.

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

Your legs had been tried after running away from the one place none of you ever wanted to see again. But so were Saeran's, although he continued to hack and fix things on his laptop that he packed before leaving Mint Eye. It took a long while where he did the same thing over and over again in order to receive the satisfaction he wanted to achieve. By the time he decided to let it be, it's dark outside. The little wooden house hidden in the forest only lit by the old lamps, candles you found while looking around due to curiosity and the moonlight outside.

"Still a hardworking man, hm?"

Your voice called for his attention, which he gave you by lifting his head back up to meet your bright eyes. You stood in the door frame to the living room, arms crossed while wearing the nightdress you packed in a hurry. Saeran could feel his chest warm up just by seeing you stand tall again, despise the exhaustion due to running much and eating less. He rolled his neck, trying in vain to ease the tense muscles there.

"I needed to make sure the security system's down so they can't track us."

Saeran watched the face of yours glow up with a little smile, it felt like a dream. The light around the house, the way you stood in the door, giving him the illusion you're both living inside the strange house since years as a married couple. The thought caused the blush underneath his cheeks to increase. As you stepped into the living room, you reached him by stretching out a hand. Which the young man with minty colored eyes took without hesitation.

"I know. But you need a break, Saeran. We both need one."

He agreed to the statement, what happened in the last week's enough for a lifetime of stress. And you're not even nearly done, with his brother kidnapped by his father and Rika probably still being stubborn to send Believers after you to find the hideout Saeran picked the night before taking off. But when being with you, he didn't want to think about anything, all Saeran wished to do's make up for the stolen and complicated time both of you lost back at Magenta. As he stared down to the hand of yours inside his, it let an idea pop up inside his mind.

"Would you like to go outside for a bit?"

Your eyes widened with appreciation for a change in routine of work and fleeing. The smile of yours such a beautiful sight, Saeran would die for it.

"I'd love to."

"Im glad, then put on shoes okay?"

He held back a chuckle as you seemed confused at first before looking down, realizing you're barefoot inside the house. You rolled your eyes in a playful manner at his laughter before getting your shoes, it gave Saeran the time to look for something specific on his phone and the backpack he carried around the whole day. It's a bit risky, yet he couldn't afford to care as much, considering he's unsure how long the two of you could stay together. He's unable to explain right now, yet the conflict with his father and Saeyoung had him think a lot over his own wellbeing.

The process of rescuing his twin brother could cost him a lot, in the extreme case even his own life. That's why Saeran didn't point it out just yet, he didn't want you to be scared soon after escaping a nightmare. First he wanted to spend time with you in a lovely way, a calm one without having you worry about anything other than rescuing his bother. When the time's there he would make you aware of the situation, right now though, all he needed you to know's how much he loved you. After you're ready with shoes on, he took your hand to leave through the backdoor and into the surrounding forest.

The moonlight's bright with the million of starts shining to get the sky filled out completely. The light cold, dark as it made the trees around appear even more dangerous albeit mysteriously interesting. Saeran adored the nature. You storked a strand of hair behind your ear as you followed him down onto the ground made out of dirt. As you both stood under the night sky, hearing nothing but the wind messing with the leaves of the bushes, Saeran turned to you with a shy grin. You adored it.

"Remember what you told me about yourself after coming here?"

"That I like slow love songs..?"

He nodded, happy you understood what he's going for. You huffed amused then, eyes shining even brigther with the stars living inside as you took guesses. Saeran opened his phone to see the connection being steady before putting it back into the pocket. Your hand's warm in comparison to his as he pulled it up, laying one of the two wireless earbuds onto your palm.

"It's.. We can't let it play loudly, others could hear us. So.."

You caught his meaning, placing the earbud in and Saeran imitated the gesture. As soon as you both were able to fit them in without holding on, he clicked the play button to have a slow melody run through your ears and give the night a brand new vibe, something more comfortable. Warm and cozy like he wanted it to be.

~ I found a love for me

Oh darling, just dive right in and follow my lead

Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet

Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me ~

Saeran adored nothing more than the slight blush that seemed almost purple due to the moonlight, face filled with newfound power to lay your hand onto his and have him hold your waist to lead. He never really danced before, but you told him once that neither had you, which meant it's new for the both of you. Saeran looked down to his feet after pulling you close, the heat of your body relaxing him. He's free now, thanks to you. All of this, the espace and especially the desire to think freely, the work done by none other than you. He's so grateful for it. He would forever be.

You sighed slightly to not be loud, keeping in mind that they're still strangers with thick robes were searching for you. But the wrinkle free face of yours showed none of the stress it all created. Nothing but the calm by listening to one of the songs you enjoyed so much. Saeran couldn't take his eyes off you, how breathtaking beautiful you were. He never met someone like you, he never loved someone like this before. It's brand new in a way he's excited to figure it all out. As you followed his steps back and forth, you looked back up to him, taking all his breath.

~ 'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love

Not knowing what it was

I will not give you up this time

But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own ~

Your hand felt comfortable on his shoulder, rushing a bit higher on purpose to touch his neck. The young man with beached hair ignored the heartbeat of his picking up speed to focus on the words you whispered to him in your beautiful tone of voice.

"I didn't know you liked these kinds of songs."

You smiled genuine afterwards, having his heart bleed with adoration for every single aspect of your being. Saeran pulled you as close as he could, having your body touch his. Your sent filling his nose, a familiar smell of nature that's sweeter than most fruits. The pattern in your eyes he's captivated by, he couldn't help but smile wide himself.

"I didn't either.. But I like this."

"I don't like it, I love it."

It made you giggle when Saeran turned his head to the side by how surprised he felt with the bold confession of yours. He's glad regardless. That's all that mattered. You're happy and he could hold onto you, make sure you're save from whatever's lurking in the shadows. Nothing more, that's all he needed to experience true happiness. Another gift you gave him without realizing. You squeezed his hand slightly to gain his attention, pulling him out of his head. You let your other hand wander up higher, taking hold of the red burning cheek.

Saeran couldn't find words with you being so close, it never happened before that there's enough time to watch all of your face with such little distance. He's able to see every imperfection, but also the characteristics in the many features that let you look like yourself. And there's nobody more pretty on this planet than you, at least to Saeran.

~ And in your eyes, you're holding mine

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song

When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath

But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight. ~

He closed his glass colored eyes as you pulled him down by the neck. Forehead against his and the physical contact had him fly on the highest of clouds. He's so glad you forgave him, what he'd done. Saeran didn't want to imagine what would've happened if you didn't accept his apology, which you had all right to reject, of course. It would take time to let the things he'd done be nothing more than just bad memories. Even now, though. You're so willing to accept him, to love him although he treated you wrong. He didn't know what made you this strong, but he admired you more than anyone else.

"Saeran, what will happen from here on?"

He opened his eyes, it's no use however. You're too close for him to get a good look at your face, he could hear the tone in your voice either way. You seemed nervous deep down, which he felt as well. Saeran took in more of your sent before clearing his throat.

"I hope we can rescue Saeyoung and then.. Find peace. I want to be happy with you."

The music in the earbuds helped to keep the silence around the air bearable, giving Saeran the courage he needed to continue being truthful with his words instead of speaking through the flower. He knew you deserved the truth, even if it could be scary or, heaven forbid, dangerous. Yet you hummed, a soft note he'd love to hear more often.

"I'm happy already, even in these circumstances. I'm happy you're with me."

~ Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know

She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home

I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets

To carry love, to carry children of our own ~

Saeran's heart almost jump out of his chest by your words. You didn't seem to mind as he leaned in an inch more, noses touching and having him painfully aware by how close you allowed him to come when your breath hit his. He didn't need to speak to get across how important these words were for him, he knew you could feel it in the way he held you. After he took another step with the music, hardly paying attention to the lyrics and more to your words and his love for you, he rubbed his hand slightly over your back.

"Thank you (N). I can't express how much I.. love you."

At first he's unsure if it might be too soon to say these heavy words, but he would lie if he'd day it's not the emotion he felt towards you. Saeran did love you, the first time he actually decided and did something for himself in his life. Your lightheaded giggle made him crave to never let you go again.

"I love you too, Saeran. I really do."

He could've cried by how lovely you were. All of you just shone as bright as the sun, making her envy you for the effect you could have on your surroundings by just existing. Saeran turned with you, never letting you go to keep you as close as he could.

~ We are still kids, but we're so in love

Fighting against all odds

I know we'll be alright this time

Darling, just hold my hand

Be my girl, I'll be your man ~

The chill temperature of the night couldn't get to any of you, with your bodies dancing so close against another, all of Saeran's senses were filled with only you. Your sent, your touch, your voice in his ears that ringed so sweetly, just all of you's intoxicating to a level that helped Saeran find himself. The person he always had been and wanted to become. Your hand touched the hair on his neck, sending a shiver down his spine due to the new sensation. Slowly you rushed your hand up through his chaotic white hair, now owning a blueish shimmer thanks to the night.

"Is there a reason you picked this song?"

The smile in your voice's lovely, probably having assumptions already. Saeran took another step back with your taking one forward, holding his hand tighter as he let a little chuckle escape his lips.

"It fits to you.. us, actually. Because I love you."

~ I see my future in your eyes

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song

When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful

I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight ~

"See? His words fit. The nightdress of yours is beautiful. And.. I don't deserve it, but you're just so perfect."

You stopped the slow dance underneath the moonlight and between all the nature, holding him in place with your face an inch away from his own. At first, Saeran feared he crossed a line by admitting his feelings, maybe going too fast after all as he's pretty clueless how much time had to pass in order to have you comfortable in the relationship. Thankfully, all his worries were melted away like ice cream in the summer time as you leaned up on your tiptoes to give him a kiss on the lips.

It took him off guard, a sharp intake of air left his mouth before you shut him up. Saeran could feel the entire chest of his explode with a fire that's not burning him from the inside. It's pleasant and comfortable, it's beautiful. You did kiss him before in the garden of Magenta, but he didn't have the time to truly appreciate your affection due to his insecurities and Rika being in the way to keep him in line. But now he could completely focus on only you and your kiss. Truly, it had his head spin like a carousel.

Your lips were soft against his, a bit chapped and he couldn't tell if they're yours or his own. The taste of fruits able to taste on his tongue by whatever lip balm you preferred. This intimacy almost caused him to tear up, knowing you're willing to share this with him, just the thought that you're feeling the same as Saeran made him feel like he could master everything. Everything would be alright as long as you're by his side. The rest could work out itself. You're all that mattered.

~ Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song

I have faith in what I see

Now I know I have met an angel in person

And she looks perfect ~

After you pulled away to breath in air, Saeran wanted to see the slight red colored face of yours. Eyes shining brighter ever time he inspected them, showing the emotions inside your system more open than before, only to him. The little smile on your face adorable with your lips more red thanks to the kiss you shared. Saeran opened his mouth, yet you're quicker to find words.

"You will stay with me now, right? I don't want to part from you ever again, my love."

The nickname had the butterflies in his stomach fly around the whole forest. Saeran stoked some of the loose hair that moved with the wind behind your ear, memorizing every little detail of you the best he could. He wanted to promise albeit he couldn't. Not right now, once everything's over with the prime minister and the drama around Mint Eye. Until then, he nodded with honesty filing his entire body.

"I stay by your side until I die. No matter what, my love for you won't ever leave, angel."

You seemed to understand the deeper meaning, at first you made the impression of being ready to agure. Instead you swallowed the lump for now to return the honest smile on your face, wanting to keep it fair and even.

"Okay, thank you. The same goes for me. I will love you even after my death.. I will never leave you lonely again."

~ I don't deserve this

You look perfect tonight ~

Fellowship HCs (1/?)

How the fellowship reacts to the reader being touch starved and being too scared to return any affection (platonic or not). She/Her pronouns. Thank you😳☺.

hello anon! sure thing! i’m just gonna group some of them because i am tired-

Type: Headcanons! First ones! Pairings: Platonic!Fellowship x reader Summary: a brief set of headcanons for the fellowship reacting to a touch-starved tenth-member Warnings: swearing Word Count: nOt bOtHeReD bUt iT’s sEvErAl dOt pOiNtS pEr pErSoN

ARAGORN

okay let’s be real here our boy is not an expert on physical affection

but he’d always be nice to Y/N

“would you like some more deer, Y/N?”

he’d tell her stories about his time in Rivendell to make her more at ease around him, and he would smile so widely when she laughed

fully aware that his sketchy hunter nature used to freak her out but he’s really glad that she doesn’t feel the need to sit on the other side of the fire anymore

patient enough to let her come to him when she’s ready

Y/N was absolutely terrified by the fact that he always has his sword next to him, but one day when she was super tired and Aragorn had let the Hobbits look at his sword she sat next to him and rested her head on his shoulder

Aragorn was s h o o k that she’d approached him, and he just kinda awkwardly put his arm around her

Y/N flinched, but she settled into it, and to this day they act like brother and sister

LEGOLAS

Legolas, a.k.a the least socially intelligent elf on the planet

but he always means well, and Y/N never faults him for that

very concerned when the first time he extended his hand to help her into a boat she flinched back and avoided his eyes for the rest of the day

he doesn’t really know what to do, so he basically tries what he does with spooked animals, which is ... singing

he’d be singing this beautiful song about Mirkwood in Autumn, and he would hold out some lembas to Y/N until she took it and asked what he was singing

he said he could teach her, and she was completely unused to his kindness, so she just spent the evening blushing and staring at the stars

she didn’t notice when he gently out his hand on her arm (she was searching for constellations), and when he made a sound she absolutely freaked and fell over

“Legolas you fucking scared me!”

he apologised immediately, giving her his hand for the second time 

this time, she takes it and lets him help her up, and she smiled 

Legolas was grinning like a pointy-eared idiot for hours 

BOROMIR

look, Boromir is nice when he wants to be

so, of course, when he sees this girl who’s distancing herself from everyone else in the fellowship, he’s not about to let anyone befriend her first

he’s loud enough to make up for both of them, and he invites her to watch him teach the Hobbits basic swordsmanship

Y/N goes (reluctantly) because it’s be rude to say no and she doesn’t mind this first friend

she’s laughing like an idiot when he gets tackled to the ground, and she can’t help but make fun of him when he emerges from BurialByHobbits™️

“Master swordsman, huh?”

Boromir will just laugh and tell her to shut up, giving her a friendly slap on the arm

Y/N’s not afraid of the slap, nor does it hurt, but she doesn’t want to slap him back in case he gets mad

he notices how she looks really uncomfortable, and he’s not having his bestie Y/N be upset

“Hey, you enjoy watching me suffer?”

this time, Y/N laughs even louder, and she finally squeezes his arm

“Wouldn’t miss it for the world.”

GANDALF

ah, yes, the ‘wisest of them all’

of course Gandalf was the one to see this young woman and be like

“Ah, yes, another child for the Fellowship”

not that Y/N minds - it’s good to have a benevolent wizard father figure

he makes sure she’s comfortable around all the guys

Y/N likes to sit in silence next to the old wizard best, just looking up at the sky 

he’ll tell her stories of the days before Middle-Earth, and she’ll ask questions all the time

but after a few days Y/N finds it so easy to return familial affection of a sort to her QuestFather™️

probably sings “YOU ARE MY DAAAD ... you’re my dad! oogie woogie boogie!” all the time (if y’all don’t get it istg)

GIMLI

Y/N initially found Gimli really abrasive, with his snarky comments and general Dwarvishness

it definitely took her a little while to warm up, and she never wanted to return his little sarcastic comments with some of her own, because she didn’t want to offend him

plus, she didn’t even know that he meant them as his was of showing affection, and she felt a little hurt

but after most of the battles, no matter how small, Gimli would go

“Great job, Y/N. tEaCh mE yOur bAtTlE sEcReTs!”

and of course Y/N would laugh, and it would be her roundabout way of showing affection

but then one day she just gathered up the courage to hug Gimli, and she had to pick him up to do it

cue everyone else being all *gASP* SHE DID NOT PICK UP THE DWARF

but Gimli took it as a reward for all his efforts trying to befriend the obviously kindness-starved girl 

now Y/N is the ONLY one allowed to pick up Gimli

THE HOBBITS

Hobbits are very touchy-feely creatures, but they also have great respect for another person’s comfort (they do so love comfort)

so, of course, they hug Y/N as often as possible, but they try to make sure she’s also comfortable with how much they engage with her

she’s basically one of them now

they have these sweet running jokes like:

Pippin: “Hold up. We haven’t had second breakfast!” Y/N: *gasps* “What if they don’t have second breakfast? What’ll we do?!”

honestly, it’s the four Hobbits + Y/N and they’re a family now. end of.

she definitely warms up to them really quickly, and soon they make her feel happy and like she belongs, and she’s no longer touch starved.

That’s it! i’m sorry anon, i must confess this was a rush job.

i’m sorry for making you wait so long - as you can see i had a LOT of requests!

bUt tHaT dOeSn’T bOtHeR mE bEcAuSe i lOvE aLl yOuR rEqUeSts, dEaR rEaDeRs. PLEASE KEEP REQUESTING!

“it’s fine. I’m okay, it’s just a shirt anyway”

but u keep on insisting him to wear it

“that’s the least i could do for you, I’m really sorry”

i mean his easygoing and friendly personality makes you even comfortable with him

one day, when you’re on closing shift,

“n-nothing.  i-i actually came for you. it’s quite dangerous to walk home alone, so i decide to accompany you” he stutters—avoiding eye contact

his words makes you chuckles and confused

“suddenly? alright, let me finish mopping the floor, then we’re ready to go”

along the walk, it was a comfortable quiet and calm having him by your side

as your hands slightly brush to each other but no one dares to said anything as if nothing wrong with it

just as you want to unlock your door, you turn around to face him, expressing your gratitude before he left

“thank you for walking me to home so-”

“actually i have something to tell you”

his sentences makes you anticipate with full hopes

“what? tell me”

“i think i have fallen for you.  i like you.”

“i’m sorry if i just blurt it ou-”

“n-no. i—wow i just didn’t expect that. actually, i—damn it—i like you too”

you said, biting your lips in embarrassment as you turns your head to the side

your sudden confession makes young k grins turn wide as his smiles never left his lips

“then...would you be my girlfriend?”

without hesitation, you said

“really? i mean, yES! OF COURSE”

making you jumps into his embrace

both arms open, ready to hug you in process

you giving him the biggest hug as he capture in his arms

“congratulations baby, u did it” you happily wish, handing over a bouquet of flower to him

“flowers?” he asked, pouting visible on his face as slight smirks appears from corner of his lips

“why? you want another gift? okay, i’ll buy for you later”

“what about a kiss?”

“right now??”

your shocked face makes young k chuckles upon seeing your flustered expression

“well...if that what you want”

with that, you close your eyes, waiting for him to come closer

as soon as you felt his lips met with yours

you can’t help it but to smile between the kiss

and you know,

his friends definitely capture your first kiss on the camera

fights with him <//333

fights between both of you didn’t usually occurs

it does happen

but nothing serious or bad

just a small bickering between both of you

but eventually both of you make up so easily as young k is the first one to apologize because he felt bad

however, there is one time you’re the reason the fight break out

it just a careless mistake of yours

your phone died because of the low battery

and you had to get off work around late than usual

and young k gets worried because you’re not home yet

and you’re not answering your calls

when he just about to get out looking for you

you came into your shared apartment

tired and irritate as fuck

but young k didn’t notice

“where on earth did you go?” 

he asked, watching you passed by him nonchalantly as you make way into the house

“i tried to call you so many times, why didn’t you pick up?”

he grabs your arm, stopping you from entering into the bedroom

“look, i’m home now right? nothing happened to me so what’s the problem?”

“i’m dead worried for you, waiting at home—you asking me what is the problem?!”

young k is clearly pissed off with you right now as he failed to keep his composure calm >:(

“look, i don’t want us to fight, i’m so tired right now“

with that, you leave him behind alone and close the bedroom door

after taking your shower, you waits for him at the bed—trying to talk things out

but the apartment feels to quiet as if no one is there

you went out to the living room

and didn’t find young k there

your fight went for about three days

it’s not like young k did not meet u

but he straight up ignore your presence in the apartment

he slept in the living room during the night

you didn’t get to meet him during the day because you’re working

how you make up with him after the fight

you can’t take his silent treatment anymore

you learnt your lesson and reflecting yourself when he’s ignoring you

and you miss him so much :((

so, you decide to lock him up in the shower for 10 minutes

that’s the only way to prevent him to ignore you again

“open the door, i don’t have time to play”

“not until you promise to listen to me for a seconds”

behind the door, you could hear his soft sighs

“okay i promise”

and when you open the door

he went up to put on some clothes—coldly passed by you

“l-listen to me first”

but he didn’t even bat an eye for you as you wait behind his broad back

“i’m sorry. really—i meant it.  i know it’s my mistake. i’m sorry for lashing at you that.  i know you’re worried for me,  i’m so sorry”

you apologize between your sobs as you can’t help it but to cry in front of him

you could not look him in the eyes as you felt he turns around to face you

for a moment, the surrounding went quiet, making you nervous

“say something, please.  i understand if you want to brea—”

“shouldn’t you apologize for locking me up for 10 minutes?”

you lifted your face and met with cheeky expression plastered on his face

you burst into tears again as young k tease you

“don’t you dare to ask for a break no matter when we’re fighting.  also, let’s not fight again— i miss you so much”

young k said, cupping your face into his palm as his thumbs wipes out your tears from your cheeks

“i’m sorry :((” you mumbles with pouts on your lips

“alright, you’re forgiven.  how could i can’t accept your apologies when you’re looking so damn cute right now, huh? i love u”

young k said, engulfing you into his embrace, planting some kisses on top of your head

BNHA Common Misconceptions

I’ve been seeing wayyy too much bs on my dash lately. So I thought I’d share some of my thoughts on some Controversy™

***Spoilers For The Manga***

1. “What the HPSC did to Hawks wasn’t bad”

A government organization putting a young child through rigorous training so that he can be used as a tool is bad. I don’t know why I have to spell that out

Hawks had to abandon his real name at a very young age. That’s damaging for a kid’s sense of identity. His identity as a person no longer has any separation from his work as a hero. Being a hero is all he is now. I wouldn’t be surprised if (provided Hawks’s wings are gone for good) he has an identity crisis after this arc because he can’t be “Hawks” anymore.

Hawks is based on Lionel Messi, a soccer player recruited at a young age in return for paying for his medical procedures. I’ve seen people say that Hawks chose to be a hero. One, he was a child, young children shouldn’t be making decisions like that. Two, we know based on context clues that Keigo was more than likely living in poverty, possibly with alcoholic parents, and we literally are told that the HPSC payed for his family’s living expenses. Do you really think Keigo had much of a choice here?

I’ve seen people say “it’s just like what UA is doing”. First of all, UA is called out for being irresponsible and endangering their students IN UNIVERSE. Second, Keigo was a young child, the UA kids are 15+. There’s a huge difference.

2. “Mitsuki isn’t abusive”

Honestly when it comes to her smacking Katsuki, I could excuse it as a joke done in poor taste and not hold it over her as a character.

Hitting him WASNT just discipline tho. You should never, ever, under any circumstances hit your kid. Fuck that noise.

What I really have an issue with is what she SAYS to Katsuki. Her guilt tripping him isn’t a throwaway line either. He repeats the sentiment that he is responsible for Kamino during Deku v Kacchan 2. It’s one of the main reasons he fights Deku.

Horikoshi says that Katsuki has a good relationship with his mother. In that case, he did a horrible job at presenting that. What is written in the canon is what should be used as the basis for how we interpret her character.

3. “Shigaraki chose to kill his family/was born evil”

No...just...no. He was FIVE for crying out loud.

He wanted to be a hero, and took extra care to play with kids that had no friends. He definitely wasn’t born evil lmao.

His quirk manifested while he was having an emotional crisis. Decay is controlled by emotion so of course it went haywire.

He didn’t even know it was him doing it at first.

“But Shigaraki said he WANTED it to happen” Shigaraki is an unreliable narrator. What we actually SEE tells a very different story. He reaches out to Hana and his Mother for help. His grandparents are just caught in the shockwave. The ONLY person he killed on purpose was his father.

Now when it comes to his father, he had just beat him and locked him outside. He’s FIVE, and he has no healthy outlet for his anger and frustration. Hell, we see that in his “itchiness”, he only feels like this in the house, because his father makes him suppress his love for heroes and his dream to become one. He takes joy in killing his father because it’s the only release he’s ever experienced.

The fact that you guys forget that this is an abused child with no real control over his quirk that just got beaten and locked outside... Nope, no reading comprehension here.

4. “The League of Villains are justified/are a revolutionary group”

...Shigaraki has stated over and over again that he just wants to destroy everything. He doesn’t care about reform or improving anything. That one panel in Ch. 222, where he says he wants to destroy everything I think sums it up perfectly.

He wants to destroy EVERYTHING good or bad or neither or both. There’s a newborn baby, a field of flowers , Nine, various heroes, the UA kids, etc all varying in innocence.

The rest of the league have very different goals and reasons why they continue to support Shigaraki. Twice wants to protect the only people that accepted him. Spinner just wants to have purpose for his life. Toga wants to live the way she wishes with no consequences. Compress is also here.

The only “revolutionary” is Dabi. But his views are not universal throughout the league.

Even if they were trying to improve things. They have killed countless innocent people, they’ve tried to kill the UA kids too. That’s not ok. And it’s not erased by the fact that they’ve done good. (I do appreciate them for killing the MHA version of the KKK, truly epic of you)

5. “Hawks is abusive”

It’s not abuse to manipulate someone for info when you’re a double agent. It’s kinda shitty, and you could argue that it was unnecessary for Hawks to do so in context. But it’s not abuse.

Y’all need to stop using the word abuse/abusive tendencies to describe all immoral actions

I’ve also seen people say that Hawks has abusive tendencies (as in he’s abusive in all his relationships with other characters) and...do I really need to explain why that makes no sense at all?

6. “Twice deserved to die/it was necessary to kill him”

Feel like I need to remind people that we’ve only ever actually seen Twice kill one guy and that was one of the KKK guys.

Twice isn’t evil, even Hawks admits that he is a genuinely good person. Good people don’t deserve to die.

It wasn’t necessary, and here’s why: Hawks could’ve just knocked him out or even just severely injured him. (Or the HPSC could’ve just grown a brain cell and sent more people to back him up, making it easier to hold back his quirk and arrest him)

Hawks shouldn’t have killed Twice, he only killed him because he’s been raised as a child soldier and I wouldn’t be surprised if what he told Twice about taking out villains was a direct quote from the HPSC

Also, Hawks would’ve killed Twice with or without Dabi’s intervention

Something I do have to say though is that Hawks was right not to just let Twice go. It’s tragic because Twice WAS leaving to help his friends, but the other side of that tragedy it that his friends are terrorists. If he was allowed to leave a shit ton of people would have died (again that doesn’t mean he deserved to die either, don’t get it twisted)

The WHOLE POINT of Hawks v Twice is to make you question who the bad guy is. Both characters are morally gray and the only reason they even have to fight is because of the outside forces controlling their fates. It’s supposed to be tragic it’s supposed to be unclear who is in the right, so stop arguing about it.

7. “Bakugou is abusive/irredeemable” (I know it’s been talked to death but I still see it everywhere)

People are, in fact, allowed to grow past the person they were in middle school.

Most people get hung up on the “throw yourself off a building” line. Which is fair, but again, he was in middle school.

People also say “he hasn’t apologized yet”. Yeah? And? The story isn’t over yet. Horikoshi has already acknowledged that too. I don’t know what you want? People who like him know that his arc isn’t over yet.

I’ve seen a lot of people denying his character development. In the beginning of the series he was a bully and let his ego control him. I don’t think he’s bullied...anyone since Deku v Kacchan 2. He insults people but they obviously don’t take it seriously.

He’s also gone from preferring to fail a final exam to avoid working with Deku, to following him into battle against Shigaraki.

Also, when he actually likes and respects someone he doesn’t mistreat them. This is the same thing with Hawks where y’all NEED to stop misusing the word abuse. He was an abusive friend to Deku when they were kids, that’s it.

8. “Rei was abusive too!”

I’m BEGGING YOU to learn what the term “abuse” means istg

She had a psychotic break. She genuinely thought it was her abusive husband coming through the door, and she acted out of fear.

“Well that’s not an excuse” yes it fucking is. Not to mention that as soon as she realized what happened, she sobs hysterically because she hurt Shouto and tries to use her quirk to help him.

I genuinely don’t understand why people think this

9. “Dabi actually does care about the league”

Listen, I know it sounds harsh, but y’all need to get your heads out of your piles of headcanons.

We know next to nothing about how Dabi feels about just about anything. But we do see that he’s aloof and distant with the league, he doesn’t put in more than he needs to. The rest of the league think of each other as family. Dabi straight up says he doesn’t give a shit about them.

“What if he was just putting up a front for Hawks” Why? Why would he do that? When asked who he was he answered him. He tells him how he feels about hero society and Stain. Not to mention that he was getting ready to kill him. If he was hiding his true feelings about the league I doubt he would’ve so easily said that he didn’t care about them but rather how useful they were.

At this point it’s just wishful thinking. Based on everything we’ve seen in the series so far and everything we know about Dabi, I think it’s safe to say that he doesn’t care about them all that much. If he secretly does care about them, I’d say it’s likely that he doesn’t even know he does.

Idk why all of a sudden villain stans and hero stans are feuding over things that shouldn’t even be up for debate in the first place. Sorry if this came off as super aggressive, I’m just sick of seeing this stuff all over the place. If anyone has anything to add go ahead

Enemies to Lovers!AU with Xiaojun

—

Group: NCT [+ WayV]

Member: Xiaojun / Xiao Dejun

Genre: fluff, comedy, romance 

Type: Bulletpoint AU 

Word Count: approx. 2.4k

so, you’re Xiaojun’s enemy (he thinks of it more of his number one attacker tho)

it wasn’t hard considering he’s always on fight or flight mode and considering his friend group….

fight mode is always activated

(ง’̀-‘́)ง

so it started when you became friends with Ten

the guy is so sociable, so you were bound to meet him and his other friends someday

but jesus christ, there were soooo many of them

it was a party; he threw a literal party of just him and his friends

and then there were others who turned it into a rave (i.e. Hendery, Yangyang, Chenle and Donghyuk)

anyways, you got to mingle and make so many new friends

it was going really well

until Xiaojun entered the picture

things went well with him too, until you made a joke that didn’t exactly land with him

but it landed well with the others

Lucas: “who in their right mind would like mint chocolate”

Xiaojun: “but I like mint chocolate”

You: “then you’re not in your right mind lmao”

YangYang: “I mean, is Xiaojun ever in his right mind tho”

everyone laughs

except for one person

Xiaojun stood up, staring you down for a hot second, before trying to argue back

in which YangYang was the main responder

you didn’t really think much of it, laughing away with the others

but, to him, you just declared war that day

it shouldn’t have bothered him as much as it did

but it did

so, from then on, things just got rockier

bc he started picking fights with you over the littlest things or he would argue with your points no matter what

you didn’t really think much of it bc he was also being picked on everyone else and you were like

every man for themselves huh

it wasn’t until he personally attacked you

it happened on Halloween

and he made an underhanded comment about how he’d look better in anything compared to you

so you made a “friendly” bet

but then you lost

bc Xiaojun looked better in the Jasmine costume than you and he def knew it too

and when he smirked at you

the grudge had been built

that’s probably when the mutual enemy status circulated around your friends

although, if they’re being honest, it’s so entertaining

especially since most of them like to gang up on Xiaojun too

and because of that unity, it’s only made things worse

from what the others can tell

you two don’t hate each other, but you def don’t get along

it ranges to food (e.g. mint chocolate chip incident that NO ONE lets go)

Lucas: “mint choco ain’t shit”

You: “retweet”

Xiaojun: “the attacks”

YangYang: “we cannot trust a man who eats bread with fucking lao gan ma”

You: “you eat what with bread?”

Xiaojun: “shut up. all of you.”

to activities

cue you two fighting about what movie to watch

Xiaojun: “Titanic is a classic!!!”

You: “it’s a joke, there was rOOM ON THE FUCKING DOOR”

Xiaojun: “IT’S ROMANTIC. HE SACRIFICED HIMSELF SO SHE CAN LIVE.”

You: “THAT’S NOT ROMANTIC. THAT’S SUICIDAL, DUMBASS.”

this feud is def bc you’re both petty as fuck

the bickering is nonstop

but, if the nct boys are being honest

they’re lowkey confused bc Xiaojun is supposed to have a really high emotional tolerance

he doesn’t even yell this much at YangYang or Ten

(excluding that one time he hit YangYang with that pillow very hard)

but he does blow off his top when it comes to you

which is sus to a lot of the boys

whenever someone does ask him tho

he just kind of……………

mumbles underneath his breath and then moves onto something else

meanwhile, Yuta: “isn’t he always like that?”

Kun: “who wants to tell him”

lmao, I’m kidding

kind of

anyways, you two are really just going at it

what changes?

you have to go to the dentist and get your molars removed

which means someone has to take you and go pick you up

obviously, Ten was going to do that, considering you two were the closest

so he dropped you off and you had your surgery

so what happened?

welp, your buddy Ten forgot he had a prior engagement and, hence, was unable to pick you up

cue him spamming the groupchat

and Lucas exposing Xiaojun

Lucas: Xiaojun isn’t doing anything Xiaojun: you don’t know that Lucas: I do tho, go pick up (Y/N) Ten: I’ll buy you anything from that green tea cafe you like for a week Xiaojun: deal.

so he came to pick you up, both willingly and unwillingly

and you……. you were more than a hot mess 

you were just a mess 

you basically were just blacked out that entire time after they gave you the laughing gas and completed the surgery

so you remembered absolutely nothing.

your roommate: “this is what you get for doing drugs”

You: “IT WAS PURELY FOR MEDICINAL USE”

You: “IT’S NOT LIKE I DID CRACK”

either way, your roommate let you know of the situation, taking note of how your enemy had to take you home

which

again

no recollection

your roommate: “he’s fucking hot tho”

You: “ugh, I know”

but that’s also when you decided

Ten is a dead man :)

Ten: “I’M SORRY”

You: “YOU BETTER FUCKING BE”

Ten: “I KNOW”

Ten: “............................................but………………………………….”

Ten: “maybeyoushouldalsothankhimfortakingcareofyou”

You: “sorry not sorry, I’m contemplating murder rn”

Hendery: “what do you call a murder against a friend?”

Kun: “don’t”

Ten:

You:

Hendery: “it’s a homie-cide”

You and Ten: “NOT NOW”

anyways

you knew he was right

so after you calmed down, you went to Xiaojun’s place (thanks to Ten), with some sweets to thank him

Lucas opened the door, let you in, and left to go to the gym with Sicheng

Xiaojun came out of his room, a couple of minutes after, disheveled from his nap

and when he saw you in his living room couch, his eyes widened, darting around to avoid looking at you

You: “hi”

Xiaojun: “hello”

You: “why do you look so scared? I’m not gonna jump you”

he stays quiet, the blush becoming more apparent on his cheeks

You: “Ten told me you took me home after my surgery, so…………………… thanks”

Xiaojun: “he bribed me with pastries”

You: yeah, sounds about right

You: “still”

You: “um, I didn’t know what you would like, so I brought some sweets you can just go through”

Xiaojun: “thanks”

it’s silent for another moment and you consider bolting out from the apartment, Wizards of Waverly Place, Harper-style: “see ya in p.e.!” kind of a thing

but he speaks up once more

Xiaojun: “are you feeling okay now?”

You: “uh, yeah, my jaw still kind of hurts”

You: “but I have meds they prescribed to me for the next month or so”

he decides to stop beating the bush: 

Xiaojun: “so do you remember what happened yesterday?”

You: “to be completely honest, no”

Xiaojun: “you… did a lot of things”

You: “what do you mean I did a lot of things”

Xiaojun: “you also said a lot of things too”

You: “..... are these things recorded?”

Xiaojun: “maybe”

Xiaojun: “some”

You: “dELETET HEM”

you actually considered tackling him, but deemed as too Yang-Yang-like

You: “what did I say”

Xiaojun: “I didn’t realize you thought I was handsome”

You: “wait what?”

Xiaojun: “you said, you had a crush on my ‘fine ass’”

You: “you know what? I think I’m gonna pull a Jack and commit suicide, goodbye”

Xiaojun: “ah, ah, ah, you said like, which is… present tense”

You: “semantics”

Xiaojun: “but did you like me at some point?”

You: “does it matter?”

Xiaojun: “yeah, it kind of does”

Xiaojun: “bc even tho we bicker, it’s, like, our thing”

Xiaojun: “plus, you’re kind of cute when you’re threatening to rip off my eyebrows”

You: “I did what?”

Xiaojun: “it’s no different from how you treat me now”

You: “I thought it’s because you don’t like me”

he just kind of shrugs, rubbing his neck rather sheepishly

Xiaojun: “you’ve seen my friends; arguing is our way of showing our affections”

You: “so, you’re saying this is your way of telling me you like me?”

Xiaojun: “I mean………“

Xiaojun: “are you saying you like me?”

You: “are you saying you like me?” 

*cue another argument about who likes who*

eventually, he found a way to shut you up

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

cut to Lucas and Sicheng coming back from the gym to you and Xiaojun making out on the couch

Lucas: “NASTY”

Sicheng: “what did we…. miss?”

Ten somewhere: I fucking called it.

anyways

you both decided to date that day

and you two still bicker an insane amount, which includes you nitpicking Xiaojun’s tastes to Xiaojun refusing to delete those videos of you under the laughing gas despite your threats

but, the only difference is, your arguments can end with a kiss

and it always freaks out the guys whenever you do

Donghyuk: “I’m too young to be seeing this monstrosity”

Mark: “ngl, this is nice for them—they’ve stopped arguing”

YangYang: “I weirdly prefer them arguing over them with those sappy eyes tho”

You: “we can hear you”

Chenle: “but when have we ever cared?”

You: “I’m gonna beat your ‘01 liner ass istg—”

Xiaojun: “calm”

oh, you know what’s fun about your relationship?

you two can’t agree on some stuff right?

so whenever you have to decide something, say a movie or dinner, you two just heads-or-tails it

(there’s also this cute app where you put your options on a wheel and let that decide—the amount of times you’ve used that on your dates…… anyways)

most of the time, on these dates, you seem more like an old married couple and it’s super cute

it’s bc you’re already used to your worse sides coming out—the really petty ones, the screaming ones, the ugly ones

ofc these aren’t from serious arguments that occur

(remember folks, it isn’t healthy for you and your partner to always be fighting)

but when serious arguments do occur, you both take time to sit down and talk face-to-face

it’s hard to get into actual arguments with him, especially since he really is understanding and tries to pay attention to the smaller details

Xiaojun: “I like learning more about you”

You: “you can’t just say that kind of shit to me”

like, yeah, he’ll debate with you all night about why he needs to read the words of his book out loud but, by the end of the day, you’ll lay your head in his lap and listen to his voice as you fall asleep

speaking of which, you love listening to him sing to you

he gets a bit embarrassed sometimes about it, but seeing you smile so brightly at him makes him forget about it

because even tho you two bicker about little things, in the end, it just makes you two laugh at one another and how ridiculous you’re being

I almost forgot, so Ten thinks of him pairing you two off right?

so, whenever he does something annoying to either of you, he’ll constantly bring it up

Ten: “I guess this is how you two treat me, your personal cupid—”

Xiaojun: “yes, yes, we are grateful for you”

You: “but it would be nice if you would stop making those annoying sounds”

Ten: “what annoying sounds?”

YangYang: “that’s just you talking”

okay, no, but yeah—the nct boys are glad this rivalry is over because it was really just…. stupid to the core

but also bc you two look super sweet together and seeing you two making each other happy rather than annoyed is adorable

but just bc you two got together doesn’t mean the pettiness isn’t still there

You: “what type of freak sleeps with their eyes opened?”

Xiaojun: “I’m sleeping next to you, of course I need to keep both eyes open”

You: “RUDE”

Xiaojun: “and yet here we are”

You: “son of a bitch”

Xiaojun: “YOUR son of a bitch”

You: “eh, I’ll take it” 

[mismashedsocks]

 so riordan made a half assed lame excuse on his lazy/racist writing on piper yesterday and on top of that he made another one on samirah and i’m muslim so i am going to talk about it

damn i’m so sorry these people have been pushing you past your comfort zone about your wildly popular racist caricatures of minorities that have great impact on your young, impressionable target audience. while its fine that if he takes a break for his mental health he still needs to deal with these problems you can’t just take a break and hope they go away.

why does he think everyone is bullying him. if they talked in all caps, cussed at you, or didn’t stop bothering you, i’m sorry they’re just trying to get you to realize how racist your books are, which you keep refusing to believe. i can believe that a few of them were doing it for attention, but it couldn’t be the majority. and my god, god forbid people want you to write your books the way you preferred, without racist stereotypes. 🙈

you can set your boundaries but you keep ignoring the people, you don’t listen. like you put yourself out there as a writer you are open to criticism

why does he keep doing this to seem like the good guy. you give excuses and don’t do anything and just say that its up to you, you can think whatever you want 🥰🥰. like its such an obvious excuse not to take any action.

i’m sorry but no matter how many muslims you’ve interacted with you haven’t gotten the full experience and last time i checked teachers aren’t the kids best friends soo uhm. anyways the rest of it is just him telling his experience with muslimah students so its just there.

so uhm you just said your students ‘unwillingly’ become an ambassador to everyone she knew’. and then you went to talk to them about islam to make sure you were TEACHING THEM YOUR SOURCE MATERIAL CORRECTLY. i’m sorry imagine. these are kids not some scholars you go to consult. there are so many muslims all over the internet and youtube sharing their experiences for you to access on how to ‘represent their experience’ correctly. you’re the teacher here. picture this:as a muslilm, i teach at a public school and while teaching about Christianity in class, no i would double check or some dumb shit with the students. like educate yourself i’m sorry. anyways apparently he blames his mistakes on himself then goes on to deny he ever made any mistakes i can’t.

so this is a blatant lie. 99% of muslims i’ve met have never read all of sahih bukhari and sahih muslim. usually only scholars do that when they are studying islam for YEARS. and FIVE different interpretations of the quran on top of that. ok so sahih bukhari is 9 books that are over 300 pages each and sahih musilm is 7 volumes with also about 300+ pages each. and then the english versions of the quran are 600 pages. and he claims he read five of them. i’m so sorry but no he didn’t. he writes books so fast and he released mcga around the time toa was being released almost one book per year so he did not have a lot of spare time. the rest ig i can let slide. also and if he did do all of that why does he make so many mistakes in writing samirah. and even IF you accept his excuses reading ALL of this source material is great for teaching your class or whatever but not for writing a modern day muslim. you don’t need to lie to us rick ❤️

most of this is just describing what she’s like but his writing did also add in the model minority, smart kid trope. like no they don’t have to be a terrorist or a A+ student who is the best at everything. there is a middle ground to their personality. 

i actually used to love his rep in sam. that’s how i got into the series. i saw a hijabi girl on his website. i got excited and read all of his books. i loved piper, leo, hazel, percy, annabeth, sadie, carter, nico, everyone. now that i look back i was younger and didn’t see anything wrong with it back then. its great that he tried to portray minorities but he did it so badly and now is just denying the faults that his now older readers are trying to tell him.

hey, uhm didn’t you read all of sahih bukhari and muslim? hmm i didn’t think so. anyways the way he dealt with it honestly wasn’t that bad. but the whole ‘whoops’. like why does he keep portraying himself as the innocent old white man just trying his best.

honestly how he wrote samirah as a hijabi was the dumbest thing i’ve ever read. its is totally fine if she wasn’t hijabi, many muslim girls aren’t, and that is their choice. but he decided to make her like a weird middle ground. it was so lazy and inconsistent. in the first book she says she wears it when she needs to, like in situations like going to the masjid. this was fine, since many muslim girls do that. then in the next books she wears it all the time except when she’s in valhalla for some reason. hijabi girls take of their scarves when they’re at home or with family, but making her claim the entirety of vallhalla as her family. that was just demeaning and stupid to me. it takes away its value. and i fucking hated that last sentence. for hijabis, their hijab is important and not a toy or weapon or a MAGIC ITEM. and then on top of that she would have to take it of to hide. he could’ve made it anything else. her hijab isn’t some token item istg.

i love how he admits that they are a big problem and abusive and usually engage with child marriages. i’m relatively he doesn’t understand what the people even meant by it. the practice is a problem that isn’t supposed to be seen in a nice light. the only possible way it could be slightly ok is that if ADULTS agree they 100% do not want to choose who they want to get married to and let their parents choose, and both sides agree. samirah was a child and he decided to make her wedding life decided since the age of 12. and it was ok because amir was conventionally attractive and she loved him. WHAT IF SHE DIDNT. this literally is a dangerous arranged marriage. and arranged marriages are not ok, and mostly perpetuated by victims of it who will end up passing it down their family lines. my parents got an arranged marriage and I HAVE NEVER SEEN THEM DISPLAY ANY SIGNS OF AFFECTION. arranged marriages are not a trope that your can turn around to be a quirky personality trait for your characters.

i’m sorry that’s not how arranged marriages work. most likely if she said something her grandparents would have shut her done and continued with the marriage, as that is what you usually happens. do not portray the small amount of consented, ‘happy’ arranged marriages as the majority. it is a huge problem that many desi/middle eastern cultures are trying to erase. even on top of that he writes situations where she’s going to be in trouble for acting up and ‘jeopardizing the marriage agreement’ and that her grandparents think she’s ‘lucky that she could get the fadlan family to agree to marry their son to her’. these statements are often used in forced and dangerous marriages, so don’t try and justify your actions. if you wanted to show traditional customs in a positive light, there are so many richer parts of samirah’s culture you could’ve focused on and you chose arranged marriage. 😻 all you’ve done is given parents and authority figures a westernized resource to justify arranged and forced marriages, especially with the minimal explanation on how the marriage isn’t forced in the actual books. and yes, your books do condone child marriage samirah is clearly deemed into this marriage ever since the young age of 12. she lived her life knowing she would marry amir. no one has only one crush throughout their life. imagine how she would’ve grown up. sorry you only consider opinions that align with those in you mind.

i’m going to be honest i did like that one scene it was written nicely and accurately but the explanation he gives just ruins the entire thing. the way he just if this strikes you as islamophobic, or samirah as a hurtful, uhm no explanation i just disagree 😽. the way you wrote her is a hurtful stereotype sorry you can’t see it.

oops, you did. too bad you don’t want to do anything about it.

why do you think people are painting you in a negative light, so many of your characters are written on hurtful and negative stereotypes. people aren’t painting it that way, you need to calm down w your ego and listen. dang i’m sorry your best is giving half-assed excuses and not actually doing anything. i’m even more sorry people are mad that a highly privileged author that has a lot of influence is done talking about his racist depictions of minorities in his books. 

dang must be lucky to take a break from the social media, imagine what all the minorities you wrote about have to go with everyday weather they are on social media or not. people aren’t bullying you this is valid criticism you refuse to listen to.

fuck you

obviously these are my opinions do not judge every muslim based on what i’ve said come to me if you have a problem with it

anyways support jewish, muslim, black, brown, asian, hispanic, indigenous, lgbtq+, disabled, and other minority authors and creators.

Glad Robby told them to fuck off bc when the going gets tough, unfortunately, they will always choose someone else over Robby

But I’m all here for Miguel’s character development. Looks like soon I’ll have a total of 2 characters that I like on this show

Character: Matsukawa

Prompt: Secret Admirer

Letter:

So uh I don’t exactly know how to start this but uhm hi? I just wanted to y’know talk to you without confronting you because you’ll be too blinded by my gorgeous looks. I just wanted to kinda convey my feelings that have been building up for a while I guess?  Uh just so you’re not too creeped out that I’m a 50 year old kidnapper I was one of your lab partners this year and I just adored you and developed feelings. Sorry if I’m pushing boundaries but I just wanted to get it out there.   Also if you don’t return a letter within a week uh I’ll give up on it I guess?  I don’t really know. If you want to y’know reply just leave the letter in locker 108 and I’ll grab it from there.  Or leave it on a bench in the volleyball gym. You could always come and admire me from there ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°) If I get a letter back we can meet someplace if you'd like but if you don't then at least you took the time to read this. And uh yeah that's about it. I just wanted to convey the message that I like you and it would be great to ask you out in person.

Signed,

That really hot guy that has a huge crush on you

You sent a letter back!:

Your heart races when you read the letter and you know that this person is just a whole casserole drive and a half. You go home that night thinking of all the possibilities and what you’re going to write in that letter. You wake up the next morning, head filled with excitement and curiosity. You trudge to school though, dreading the hell you have to endure everyday, but today you feel just the slightest bit lighter on your feet. You go on about your day, while Matsukawa looked in the locker to see that there’s nothing there (y/n is just giving me such dumb bitch energy istg).  He deflated a little bit, but still had a lot of hope that you’d return his letter!  The team asked about it when he’d gotten to their afternoon practice and he just ever so slightly felt a bit more disappointed. On the other hand, you went home so very excited and ready to write them a letter!  You get all the supplies ready and start pouring your reciprocated feelings onto the paper. You seal the envelope and put it aside for tomorrow. You feel the sunlight slip through your blinds and start to get ready for the day. You grab your envelope containing all the feelings you have towards this person and head out the door. Once you start on your way to school, you start to feel your hands get a bit sweaty and feel the nervousness swell up inside you knowing you’ll be meeting this secret admirer soon. You leave the letter on one of the benches in the boy’s volleyball gym and set on your way to class. You keep trying to focus on the lesson but the curiosity of whom this person who sent you the letter is, is overwhelming your thoughts. Matsukawa goes to afternoon practice when he sees the team snickering around Hanamaki. Matsukawa goes over to see what they’re laughing about when he sees a letter. He immediately swipes it out of Hanamaki’s hands, ignoring the team’s coos. He carefully opens the letter, not wanting to rip what’s inside. He reads what’s inside and his eyes light up noticeably. He keeps it safe in a pocket in his gym bag and carries on with their practice with a new found light-heartedness. When you go home, you do all of your homework to keep your mind off of the anxiety of them seeing what you’d written and deciding that they didn’t like you now. You fall asleep that night with excitement and anxiety clouding your mind. Matsukawa is now writing what’s a shorter version of the first letter along with where and when to meet each other tomorrow. The next day, he slips it into your locker and swiftly walks to class so that you two don’t meet before the time. You quickly read it before class starts with a huge grin on your face. Today you couldn’t focus on anything but this meeting all day. You finish classes with a sigh of relief. Finally, it’s time to meet each other!  You pretty much ran to the spot you’re going to meet at and end up getting there just on time. As you come up to the spot you see a füçking tree of a man standing there. So that’s why he’s on a volleyball team. You approach him slowly, not knowing exactly what to do now that you’re actually here. He turns in your direction and his eyes light up as soon as he spots you, already knowing who you are.

“Hey, y/n..!”

Him being his awkward self in this situation, you start bursting into laughter at the situation, since it’s the only way you know how to deal with things like this. He starts laughing along, thankfully. After you both finish you laughing fit, you start the conversation up again.

“Hey! Your name is Matsukawa, right? You were from that one lab we did in science!”

“Uh yeah!”

“Y’know, I did always think you had, to put it in your words, ‘gorgeous looks’.”

“Haha thanks. Do you want to go to a cafe now since we have met now? Think of it like our first date!”

“Oh so this is a date now?” You make the

( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)face.

He rolls his eyes and grabs your hand as you walk to the cafe. You two take a seat all the way in the back and end up becoming official on every platform by the end of the day because you two clicked so well.

You didn’t feel the same way:

You read through the letter kind of confused as to who this person is and how they fell for you without even holding a conversation, or one that you remember, with you. You kind of just disregard it, remembering that the mystery person said that you didn’t have to leave a letter if you didn’t reciprocate these feelings. You continue on like nothing really happened, a tinge of guilt bubbling in the back of your mind that they’d be checking for a whole week, just to realize that you didn’t feel the same way. Meanwhile, Matsukawa’s heart was beating louder than life. He has high hopes that you’ll return a mysterious note right back to him. The team was trying to hype him up in their own interesting ways (*cough cough* oikawa saying that he probably flirted with this person and saying that he’s surprised he’s able to steal that spotlight *COUGH COUGH COUGH*). He now has a good feeling about this letter that he sent you. The next day he checks thoroughly through the whole gym, plus all throughout his locker, to no avail. He steals glances through the day to see if anything has changed yet. He thinks that you maybe just need a little more time. After all, he did give you a week to write and leave your letter back to him. Despite that, he still has this voice nagging in the back of his head that you truly don’t feel the same way. This continues on the whole week, his hope quickly dissipating. By Friday, he’s just stopped checking, knowing he’s in an unrequited love. His team consoles him, not knowing who he has his one-sided love with, but still wanting to help. He now just glances at you from afar, silently cheering for you if anything goes your way, and telepathically comforting you if you’re down. You don’t even acknowledge him, not knowing he’s the one who sent you that, though he still desperately tries to subtly get your attention, whether that be getting the top score, winning a volleyball match, or maybe passing you by a little too frequently. By the end of the year, and the end of high school for the both of you, you two go your separate ways, him only hoping that you two meet again and he can have another chance at asking you out, maybe in person this time. That way he can get the confirmation or rejection up front, rather than waiting and killing any of his lasting hope. When high school got out, he longed for any sort of contact with you, but little by little he’s now forgetting about you and moving on from his high school sweetheart who never knew him.

a/n: I’m sorry for the amount of ‘uhm’s in his letter that’s just me being awkward and not knowing how to write-
