#but the little reblog comments on here make it worth tbh

[tinartss]

sometimes i think about how kaveh was alhaitham’s first friend and collapse a little inside

[recoveringdirectioner]

various playlist names!!! descriptions below the break 🫣

(comment/reblog with yours pls i know some of y’all DEF have some unhinged ones and i need to see them)

descriptions:

banger playlist - GOOD VIBES ONLY. entirely upbeat, think no control/temporary fix/little black dress/another world vibes. this contains 50% of their discography it is category one of two

covers/unreleased - self explanatory i fear

carefully curated elite collection - my sister said i could make a 1D playlist for a road trip but she said i wasn’t allowed to include the entirety of their discography so I was limited to about 3 hours worth of music :(( cruel and unusual punishment tbh

breakdown playlist - anything slow/emotional enough to cry to, think 18/i want to write you a song/home/over again. the other 50% of their music, anything that doesn’t fit into good vibes only goes here. doubles as a frequent sleep playlist

my boys!! - every single one of their solo releases. all of them. vibes be damned it’s just each and every solo release by all five boys

! Spending Your Birthday With Chuuya Nakahara !

(pt 1)(pt2)(this is part three)

scenario:- how about this year you spend your special day with the love of your life,chuuya nakahara.

pairing:- chuuya x gn!reader

Spending any day out with chuuya means youre gettin treated.

wine,shoppin or just the arcade,you’ll be doin stuff that you both love(or just stuff that u love that he’s managed to convince you that he likes em too :’) he just loves to see u smile mann)

So you can imagine how perfect he’d make your birthdayy

It’d start with your favourite breakfast spread out on the table

And lemme tell you,he didnt miss Anything!

That coffee you’d wanted to get but couldnt cos it was outta stock? Hes made it

that special bagel or breakfast topping ud wanted to try but had decided wasnt worth the price?hes got a bowl of it

This man rly pulled out all the stops

And its not even 12 pm!

Next you guys had a day out on the townnn

Shopping?goin to watch a movie?just walkin?? Ya’ll are doin it

Like i said,anything to make your day the best ever

(Yall even visited that arcade from season two! Buddy thought he’d be great at the games,buttt he’d kinda lost touch.he absolutely Schooled you on the motorcycle sim thoooo)

And after your little outing he led you back to your shared apartment

and waiting for you out on the couch surrounded by candles and petals of ur favourite flowers was that outfit you’d seen once and loved,but hadnt bought because of the price.(SEE I TOLD U HE WAS PULLIN OUT ALL THE STOPS)

(SAY;THANK YOU TACHIHARA AND HIGUCHII(to clarify,its cos they were the ones who set it all up while u were out!))You got dressed in your fancy new outfit,and headed out to see chuuya in a fancy little out fit of his own

A purple button down,with the first two buttons undone,a tie hanging loosely around his collar.

He held out his hand for you to take and escorted you to his bike.

Next,you headed to a fancy-ass restaurant (which had great wine btw!!!) and he once again,treated you to your choice of wines,appetizers and actual mains + desert

Once you were done,you rode back and he led you over to your balcony,you both sat down on the chairs there and you promptly passed out.(I MEAN WHO WOULDNT BE TIRED AFTER A DAY LIKE THATTT)

Afterwards he ,effortlessly,picked you up and carried you to your room

That night you slept in your fancy-wear

And the next day you woke up with a hang over~

But waking up to eachothers faces made everything better<3

What a birthday ey?

[hees-mine]

little reminder to some very specific people that one-shots exist..

you don't have to make a part 2 of everything, people should be greatful of what they get from you despite constantly putting you under pressure ;( -💋

Right like atp it’s in the comments in my asks in my reblogs there’s no getting around it

I should just start charging at this point cause this ain’t worth it tbh

Every story I write is gonna have potential for a part two but that doesn’t mean I’ll make it sometimes I just like to let it sit and see how I feel about it

Last time playtime were not supposed to be series yet here we are

Plus I’m still working on ending destroyed I just posted crush to take a little break in between but at this rate I’ll be working on multiple series at a time

I appreciate the feedback and the want for multiple parts but sometimes it’s just ehh….

[innerchorus]

How do the various adaptations of The Heroic Legend of Arslan compare to each other and the original novels by Yoshiki Tanaka? I'm specifically interested in a general comparison of the manga adaptations by Chisato Nakamura and Hiromu Arakawa.

Oh man, this question probably warrants an essay to answer it properly, and tbh I don't think I'm in the position to do it because 1. I still haven't read Nakamura's version in full and 2. there isn't a translated version of it available either, which makes it a lot harder to compare nuance (I have to run the pages I'm interested through a translator first to try and decipher it).

I used to think that Nakamura's manga was a very straightforward adaptation of the novels, but recently realised that's not the case. I'd apparently only read a little of it before because I think it was back when I was still avoiding spoilers. But I've learned Nakamura wasn't afraid to add scenes if she thought it would benefit the characters in some way (see additional conversations between Isfan and Zaravant, and Hilmes and Irina). I feel as though Nakamura is sensitive to the emotions of the characters and that's what's driving these scenes; she wants to show the connection between them and, in some cases, make them feel better. There's also the incident where Elam and Alfarid encounter Sam, which is presumably used as an opportunity to show that Sam has a good heart even though he's ended up with Team Hilmes.

Both Nakamura and Arakawa will cut or abbreviate stuff at times. So in Nakamura's manga, Isfan's night raid got cut and Guiscard killed the mage instead. Perhaps she thought it best for the pace of the storytelling? It's not a major plot change, but it does get us through that section a bit faster. Arakawa's manga also doesn't adapt every novel scene. For instance, in the novels there's a scene where Hilmes rejoins Zandeh in the final stages of the hunt for Team Arslan as they near Peshawar Fortress. Arakawa didn't include it, opting to show a panel of Hilmes travelling fast, obviously heading back to pursue his prey, and then later he and Zandeh are shown together when they confront Narsus and Alfarid. Why did that scene get cut? Again, pace maybe (the same as the missing Hilmes and Zandeh scene before Hilmes sneaks into Peshawar), or Arakawa didn't like how sarcastic Hilmes is to Zandeh there and decided to omit it on that basis, lmao

As for more major changes, I'm inclined to say Arakawa's manga has more of those, certainly now we're heading towards the conclusion. Nakamura's manga stays closer to the novels than I'm expecting Arakawa's to as far as the ending of Part 1 (Book 7) goes, though the final scene of Book 7 is absent, allowing for it to feel more conclusive. But I think it's obvious at this point that Arakawa's version is already modifying novel events in a bigger way, and is probably aiming to answer some questions and deal with all outstanding plot threads by the end, so I'm excited to see where that goes. Just don't kill off my faves, please.

On the whole, Arakawa's tweaks feel like they have been very carefully considered to stay true to the heart of the novels and preserve the characterisation. I still have to translate the extra Hilmes and Irina scenes from Nakamura's manga, but I am amused that Tanaka directly said 'Hilmes didn't go and talk to Irina at this point in time' and Nakamura said 'yes he did'. Nakamura seems slightly more wilfull about doing what she wants in this respect (but again, she doesn't make big, plot-altering changes... even the added stuff with Sam slots neatly into the novel canon plotline without causing ripples).

You might have seen this post already, but @colleyuriko discussed a specific instance with regards to the tone difference of the Daryun and Narsus relationship in Nakamura and Arakawa's versions, regarding Daryun's comment about Alfarid (my reblog here with some of my thoughts too). I think that's worth a read.

Nakamura's manga takes 13 volumes to reach the end of Book 7, while Arakawa's version will hit 19 next month when the next volume is released and obviously hasn't finished yet. So from that alone I guess Nakamura's treatment of canon is briefer than Arakawa's (even allowing for some of the content added by Arakawa, such as early scenes with Etoile).

Obviously, there are stylistic differences in the art etc, but those are self-evident so I don't think I need to go into them. Hopefully this has at least started to answer your question!

[anniesocsandgeneralstore]

it's been an honor writing with you all (and by you all i mean the 6 moots who are gonna care about this) 🫡

But in all seriousness, I have been thinking about doing this for a while. My time off I've had this past week just really helped me make up my mind about it.

For months it feels like I have not been writing for myself. That I've been writing for everyone else, trying to please everyone and write what people wanna see. In all honesty, I've been writing out of guilt (feeling bad that I have requests sitting in my inbox or that a story hasn't been continued) for months. I've lost my voice somewhere along the way and I need to find her again. It's been...Not fun. At all. It's almost sapped away my love of writing tbh and I can't keep going. I need a break.

So, hiatus.

Not to mention all the stuff with minimal interactions on my creative posts (that's a whole other story that I feel every writer preaches on and I won't get into here. Reblog the stuff you like. Comment. It's why writers keep leaving).

SO, hiatus.

I'm still gonna be on tumblr. Reblogging things and reading things and probably posting things that are way too personal. Just no writing/posting creative works. So if ya ever wanna talk, reach out!

And for those still with me and for those who care, this does mean I will be deleting everything from my inbox. I'm really sorry. But seeing all those requests and prompts sitting in there day after day fills me with such guilt and anxiety. And that would be the ONLY reason I fulfill any of them. Because I feel guilty, not because I feel inspired. I know I asked for most of them through prompt list reblogs, but I feel like my mental health is worth more than a silly little blurb.

I've feared doing this because I don't wanna be forgotten in the grand ether that is the tumblr fanfic world. But I just can't do it anymore.

I hope when I come back to writing I feel refreshed, I feel inspired, and I feel joy in something I've been doing since I was 11 years old.

Until then, happy blogging to you all

[oraclekleo]

Hello Kleo, how are you doing today hun? It has been a while seeing you on here, I hope everything is well 🤍.

I actually would love to participate in your game if it's still open ⭐. Tbh, all of your games are so fun and accurate so I really don't wanna miss on this one.

My name is Sarah S. Gemini sun.

I would like a reading on my career or love (single) whatever calls for you is fine with me

Hello Sarah!

I’m alright most of the time, only slightly overworked but that’s normal at this time of the year. 🙂 I hope you are also feeling well these days and I’m happy you like my little tarot games. I’m always pleased when people enjoy my content.

The game is of course still open and I’m sorry it took me a bit longer to respond this time, I got busy but I’m back. As usual for me now, I include the cards I pull for you in case there was any special hidden meaning in them meant only for you to see. And even if you see none there, all the cards are so beautiful that it can’t do any harm. 

Let’s have a look at your cards now!

Cards: 21. Magickal Manifestation (The Solitary Witch Oracle), 3 of Cups, Queen of Wands, 7 of Wands (Cozy Witch Tarot)

Your magickal or significant number in the upcoming days might be the number 3. You might need to pick one direction out of three possible ones or you might witness three of your dreams coming true when you already thought your manifestations didn’t work that well. You might need to use your energy and effort to get where you want to be but it’s going to be worth it. You might have made mistakes in the past. It’s time for you to say ‘sorry’ now, learn the lesson and move on. While everyone needs to be accountable, there’s literally no reason to bash yourself over mistakes from the past.

If in doubt, surround yourself with your coven (or tribe, soul family). Maybe you felt isolated lately but the cards encourage you to dress for success and go out. Forget about your insecurities, we all have imperfections and the whole magic is simply in your own approach. Will you proudly own the way you are and radiate confidence and happiness or will you keep fighting the windmills in a never ending pursuit of ideal appearance? You are the only one original and that’s what makes you beautiful. As soon as you start loving yourself, you will also attract your Right Person and be able to love them with all their imperfections, too. For now, you might feel the calling to hang out with people dear to you, who will support you and boost your self-esteem in a healthy and fun way.

Your cards are really mostly about unwinding and having fun. Maybe you have been tense these days and before making any important decision about your career, you need to relax. Come again if needed later on as this game will stay open for a while and maybe next time I can see more about your career in the cards.

Thank you so much for requesting the reading!

I'm always grateful for any feedback.

For what it's worth, I want to read your writing! lack of audience can really get to a writer but I feel sometimes one needs to be reminded of why they write? Are you writing for yourself or to please strangers, which I get is obviously important for motivation and as a professional worker but I guess what I'm trying to say is don't be too down about it. I appreciate your hard work and amazing stories.

For what it's worth, I want to read your writing! Thank you, anon, that means a lot to me!

I agree with "write for yourself", because you'll never please other people/have to select who you want to please, and that's never going to end well. You can't please everyone. I used to be in the Tales series fandom, and I'd have mixed feelings about some of the games that contradicted the way others felt. I liked some of the lesser known/older games for the same reasons people hated them. So as a creator, you have to think about what feels right to yourself. It's good advice, but I have seen it taken out of context. (For the record, I don't see that happening here, because you do clarify that it's harder when you're stepping into the profession. I'll get into that in a minute, if that's okay!)

That said, I think there needs to be a distinction between writing and sharing. Writing is a process for myself, but the career aspect is stressful and straining and honestly feels hopeless most days. I hate the idea that every single part of a story needs to be about the plot, because the formulaic ways of the publishing industry don't work for every story, every writer. I think the existence of fanfic is proof enough of that, actually! So many of us love fics that cover what might have happened behind the scenes or just… we'll read fifteen different stories of the same tropes for a single ship. And tbh, I think a lot of writers - including myself - really prefer to have more canon included than the publishing industry has room for.

I'm trying to find a middle balance, personally. I want to share! I'm an avid reader, and if no one had shared, what would I have read growing up? Plus the want of financial stability, which is pressure I sincerely despise. I'd happily share everything for free if I had $100k-$120k a year for the rest of my life so I could have my house, healthcare, 3-5 cats, garden, video games, and home library. xD

Sharing is actually pretty difficult for me. I barely showed anyone my work until I was in my mid-twenties. I started writing stories down at age seven. I'm now in my thirties. But sharing is something I want to do and it doesn't get easier after all this time of trying to spread my work. Past the perfectionism (I am definitely working on this and have already made improvements) and the history of bullying I've had over my writing (of which there's been a lot). Overcoming all of that is tough. Which means I feel a little extra sensitive to the idea that if something of mine isn't getting traction, it's confirmation of all the times someone mocked my writing or vaguetweeted by a BNF to make fun of fics I'd just posted. And while I'm starting to realize that some of that likely comes from jealousy - not necessarily that I'm a great writer that poses a threat, but just that my writing means that I might take attention from them in the fandom (which is not how that works) - it's still so hard to stop thinking, "What if they were right?" when I don't get any or very few likes/reblogs or kudos/comments, etc.

I have worked very hard to be a better writer, thinking I could escape that. Now I'm beginning to recognize that that hard work has paid off, but I was also never as bad as everyone made me feel (including myself). I want to keep working hard, because my standards for myself are high.

My writing makes me so happy, I can't describe how much. So even through all the pain above? I still do it. I just think that maybe there needs to be more separation between writing and the results of that ever reaching the public eye. (Most of my writing doesn't. I write a lot. XD)

Sorry to get a little real there. And so lengthy, ugh! I never can say things briefly.

Thank you for reading out, though, and thank you for reading my writing. There are more people reading my works than I know, but sometimes I fear that I'm the only one who will want what I'm making.

I've had IRL and health issues bringing me down too, which overlapped with stressing out over the editing of the next chapter of the story I've been posting. That chapter wasn't making me happy, so I'm taking a break, ignoring it a few days, and going back with fresh eyes later. So that all was knocking down my mood, and seeing only one person comment on the latest chapter, I was like, "Oh, maybe I'm just making a big old mess of this story"… perhaps because I see the mess in my head? Every possible path I threw out, every scene I want to write but won't fit in the story, every part I feel is lacking, every bit of character and world info, etc. Is that translating into something coherent on the page, I wonder, and… it's a lot to think about.

Sorry for TL;DR on this answer, and again: thank you. ;A;

[cheese-ception]

2. Cut and paste some of your favorite reader/viewer comments on your work. We’re celebrating, people, and comments on your work is your champagne. It’s New Year’s, live a little.

Let's go with these three:

I said it once, and I’ll say it again. THIS IS THE CUTEST THING EVER, CHISA! Your love for him is immeasurable and it shows in every little piece you write for the little birdie ♥

(a reblog tag) You're my favorite xiao writer i hope you know this.

*inhale* This still looks amazing 8 hours later, Chisa!! I don’t know what led you to combine merman & barista into one prompt, I daresay no one has ever come up with such a pairing before, but please allow me to thank your wonderful mind for spawning this idea ? It just works out so well. When can I start making reservations at his cafe? Because I’d like to put my name down for every single day (and invite all the Twilight Visitors along, of course!) Love the smooth lines and his expression and his sweet little earing ^^ I hope you had a fun time putting it together, and thank you again for this!!!!

I’ve never been particularly good at accepting compliments, but each and every heartfelt comment means the whole world to me.

I hoard them like little treasures.

(´꒳`)♡

3. What stretched you creatively?

Honestly, I think mostly the fact that I somehow convinced myself to create again.

I tend to deny myself nice things at times, but this year I've indulged without any regrets.

4. What was the most difficult thing you created and how did you get through it?

Definitely all of my sketches.

The satisfaction gained from finishing them is always immeasurable, even if they make my tendons ache. They're my blorbos. Totally worth the struggle.

5. What’s one thing you’ve never tried to create that you might challenge yourself to create in the next year?

I really need to try to write more eloquently.

And give digital art another shot.

And perhaps not give up this time, lol.

6. What new fandoms did you discover over the past year?

New? Probably none tbh.

But the old ones still go hard.

7. What fan-works created by someone else inspired/excited you?

Here is where I will say what anyone who follows me was already thinking:

Pretty much all the fics written by my darling @venulus

A whole bunch of stories by my sweet @lorei-writes

But also all the gorgeous creations from the members of our @flash-exchange

Visit any of these to fall in love instantly.

8. What did you read or see that made you go, “I wish I had written/painted/created that.”

What a curious thing to ask.

I think I prefer to appreciate other people's works than to wish I made them myself, if that makes sense.

9. Who did you discover?

There's a whole lot of great people and their blogs that I have stumbled upon this year.

I wish I could plug everyone, but allow me to pick three again (it's a nice number after all):

@ikemendaniel

@scorchieart

@ladyofthemorningstar

(and ofc also you, @the12thnightproject - but that's bending things a little tho, since technically we already got acquainted in 2021, eheh <3)

10. Spread the fandom love – who makes you smile? [Yes, it is totally valid to write “everybody” in this space]

Everyone who takes the time of their day to look at my silly little posts, reacts or even just tags me in tagging games.

I am very grateful for you all, you utterly magnificent human beings.

I SEE YOU, I CHERISH YOU ♡

INSTRUCTIONS: positivity challenge !! list 6 blogs that have interacted with you in some way, shape, and / or form and show your appreciation !! let’s recognize each other’s efforts !! repost, do not reblog !! in no particular order tbh.

@deathleads — let me just preface this by saying by not following Cosmos and any character she chooses to bring to life that you are missing out tremendously. the passions shown for their oc and their easy nature is just so easy to get to know and like. This is without a doubt the truth. They are so down for everything and come ready to gush at all hours about storylines or what have you. Their oc is superb, very thought out, and you can tell they’ve been with this muse for so long just because of how easy they make it look. I recommend this one here. makes me feel like my writing is garbage. HAAAAAA.

@monstriiss — this is another good oc. draith makes sukuna down bad and we really do sometimes be up at all hours talking about acid blood making sukuna go full crackhead at like 2 in the morning. The muse is a big milf, terrifying and likely to treat you like gator food for any reason at all. and we love this. we love this scary mama. i eat this shit up like candy. another person you really, REALLY need to get to know. It’s so worth it. i try so hard to impress this one. don’t at me.

@thevcssel / @frcstie — This person is, actually, so nice. Jamie is the sweetest of people like so adorable and squish the cheeks. Yuuji is Sukuna’s little meow meow and his son, even when he’s a bit of a meanie. and their multi is gonna be just as good ngl. I love them. They write so well and any character that gets picked up is well-written. Good job, I’m so proud of you, my little meow meow. I can’t wait to interact even further in the future.

@destructivour — no matter what Ainz is such a cool person, so down to earth, so positive, and encouraging. We may not speak every day, but I am always following your feed. always. I consume everything you give. The understanding and voice Ainz has for Grimm is unreal. Ainz is a real one tbh, but I absolutely think everyone knows this. He’s a real positive voice in rp and there is a reason people love this person. If you haven’t just glanced at this blog or any of his others, you need to.

@hortussecretum — Apple is insane. I am convinced and I love it. They have such crazy muses, chaos is their brand, and I am never bored. They really do like to spread and give their attention when you need it, i swear. there are days I feel like not enough, stressed, and it’s like staring at a blank reply for thousands of hours before frustration takes over and Apple comments something that makes you caveman scratch your skull and YOU WHOT? I will never in my life forget the mommy kink tag exists on my blog, because they decided pure, unadulterated chaos was the answer. Unapologetically genuine, really nice, and liable to send you crack shit as soon as you awaken. it is worth it to add them.

@civara / @shometsu — can I just say ... you’ll never find a better duo. like I just ... PB&J been real silent since these two dropped, i swear to the gods. these two are the dynamic and writing you want and aspire to, but then, you realize your attention span is on it’s lowest settings. I just really, truly recommend getting into their stuff and getting into them, too. they’re so talented in terms of editing, drawing, and writing. The way they understand their characters is top tier. LIKE I’LL SCREAM IT AND I’LL KICK SHIT OVER, FOLLOW THEM BOTH. witness greatness.

honorable mention: @slayersaided​ — can I just say this little guy has been with me for so long? anywhere I've gone? I just ? I literally JUST started kny and finished only just this morning. I had no idea who or what character they were, but I really was about their writing and interaction. always with a rather dry sounding quip on dash and I consume their posts en mass. Now, I can actually understand what’s being said and mentioned and I’m about it. I’ve been lurking and I swear it’s time to come at you.

man, it kind of bums me out how the majority of the time that kyle's jewishness is a focal point in fan content, it's for a negative reason. if kyle's contemplating the fact that he's jewish, it's because he's being bullied or harassed, because he's feeling insecure about his appearance or self worth, because he's feeling lonely and isolated, because he's having a crisis of faith, etc etc. these are all totally valid themes and character arcs to explore, of course! i think many jews like myself may be able to relate to these themes, thanks to living in a society where antisemitism and other shitty behaviour runs rampant. but i think we're really missing a golden opportunity to explore the complex and compelling positives of being jewish. where's his love for his community? where's his excitement for an upcoming holiday? where's the comfort he might take from prayers? where's his curiosity or knowledge about his family history? where's his passion for debating interpretations of the torah? these are also valid, relatable and in-character directions you could take things!

i know that this trend is probably heavily influenced by the presence of this pattern in the show itself, but it's still a bit sad. or maybe gentiles (non-jews) shy away from celebrating his jewishness because they don't feel confident in commenting on a religious experience that they've never had. to those people, I would ask, why is it you feel comfortable speculating on the hardships of being jewish, but not the joys?

that isn't to say that you're not allowed to write about the former if you're not jewish, of course! regardless of religious background, anyone can empathise with his struggles because, at the end of the day, we're all human, and it's our humanity that unites us. but i'd encourage you to push yourself out of your comfort zone, do a little research and have some fun celebrating and supporting his jewishness once and awhile :)

today I am thinking about... fat tweek! and fat butters! and fat wendy and heidi! maybe throw a lil fat kyle in there too! I'm sick and tired of fatness being equated with immorality when it comes to south park (and the world in general tbh) and it makes me sad that so many people seem afraid of portraying any of the non-cartman characters as plus-sized. 'fat' is a neutral descriptor and not a dirty word, and displaying body diversity amongst the cast is not only realistic, but a wonderful and beautiful thing! so anyway reblog this and put in the tags which character(s) you've always headcanoned to be fat or not skinny :)

Hotel California

Wade Wilson x Keaton Clownlord

Word Count: 1153

Tag List: @canongf @ghostlyvenus-selfships @sweettoothselfships @captainscyarika

Summary: X-Force has to stay in a hotel in California for a mission, just some interactions between Wade and my self insert tbh.

Warnings: Killing/torture mentions, suggestive material but nothing incredibly spicy (comments & a make-out scene), bed bugs mention (Not sure if that would count as an unsanitary mention?? There are no actual bed bugs in the fic but Wade checks just in case.)

Thanks for reading! If you enjoyed, please consider reblogging or leaving a nice comment!

Wade inhaled exaggeratedly as the X-Force entered their California hotel, stretching out his arms to take it all in.

“I love the smell of ocean and lotion in the morning,” he grinned under his sunglasses and a baseball cap that simply had the word “Fork” on it in comic sans.

“That makes two of us, hey-oh,” Keaton chimed in, bumping his shoulder against his husband’s.

“Try not to draw too much attention to yourselves, we are here for a reason,” Cable reminded the couple gruffly, “this isn’t some honeymoon suck-and-fuck just for you two.”

“Don’t you think that’ll be a little hard with pizza-face over here?” Keaton responded.

“Hey!”

“I was referring to myself, relax,”

“Awh, babe, your acne’s not that bad…”

Wade touched Keaton’s cheek in a disgustingly tender manner while he continued, “and besides, you take these things far too seriously, surely it’s doing incredulous things for your health. We’re here to free some enslaved mutants and blow some brains, it’s a storyline we’ve played out before, honestly I’m getting tired of it. When do I get to torture some cops for once?!”

Cable rolled his eyes (eye?) but decided it was better not to respond, and was saved from even needing to by Piotr handing everyone their room keys.

“Our bags should already be in our rooms,” he informed the team.

“Good work, shiny.” Wade lightly pat Piotr’s arm before the members went their separate ways. While all the rooms were on the same floor, they opted to spread out to seem less suspicious, though Keaton’s comment wasn’t exactly incorrect; how were they to ever blend in when they had the self-proclaimed sentient tumor and a Big Metal Guy in their entourage?

“How’re you feeling? Jetlag kicking your ass yet?” Wade asked in the elevator, lowering his sunglasses to get a proper look at his husband.

“I’m sure it will. I think it’s having a cockfight with my adrenaline right now, though,” Keaton laughed, “you know how I love to travel.”

Wade nodded, wrapping his arm around his shoulders and kissing his husband’s cheek, though it was more like mostly him smooshing his own cheek and nose against Keaton’s soft and rosy skin.

“That’s what makes this job so good for you.”

“Yeah, probably the only thing. It certainly isn’t good for my heart.”

“You knew that was a risk when you started dating me.”

Keaton sighed, turning to take Wade’s face in his hands. “It’s worth it, for all this.”

Wade smiled shyly, a blush creeping over his craggy skin as he raised his hands to meet his.

When they reached their room, the first thing the couple noticed was the fact it had two beds instead of one.

“Those fuckers are trying to cockblock me!” Wade exclaimed dramatically, making Keaton snort.

“We can just push the beds together but wait,” Keaton grabbed his husband by the belt loops of his khaki cargo shorts to keep him from immediately leaping onto one of the beds like a sugar-high child. “I know this place is high class but we should check for bed bugs.”

“Right, right…”

“Good. You can do that while I check out the view,” Keaton grinned and playfully swatted at his husband’s rear before heading for the balcony.

“No fair, why do I have to do the heavy lifting?!”

“Because you have the muscles!”

“You’re a shapeshifter- oh forget it,” Wade trailed off into a chuckle, setting to checking the sheets and mattresses for signs of unwanted critters while Keaton parted the glass doors to the room’s balcony.

He sighed contentedly as he leaned on the railing, looking out at the sea not far beyond before closing his eyes as a slight breeze caressed his face.

“We are officially bug-free,” Wade announced as he approached, his hat and sunglasses discarded inside.

“Good.”

“Well… what do you think?”

Keaton looked from the horizon to his husband, smirking. “It’s no Oslo, but I can make it work for, well, work.”

“Of course it’s not Oslo, fuck, do you think there’s anywhere in the states that’s as scenic as Oslo??? As the whole of Norway???”

“I like Colorado’s views.”

Wade briefly chewed on his lip, savoring a memory as he responded in a husky tone, “I liked Colorado’s views, too.~”

The two devolved into knowing giggles before Wade took Keaton’s hands to make him face him.

“Kiss kiss,” Wade hummed, puckering his lips.

“Kiss kiss,” Keaton responded before standing on tip-toe to connect his chapped lips with his husband’s. It of course got out of hand quickly, their mouths open and breaths hot and labored, Keaton’s back uncomfortably pressed against the metal railing of the balcony but his mind too focused on Wade to care. Keaton’s fingers found Wade’s wedding ring, tracing it in a memorized manner as Wade moved his mouth down to his neck, drawing soft sounds out of him as lips and teeth collided with pale flesh.

“You left your door open,” Weasel’s familiar voice broke the spell just as Wade bit down hard enough to make his husband groan, eyes closed and head lolling back.

“Weasel, you motherfucker-!” Wade snapped, turning on his heel, “can’t you see we’re trying to have an intimate moment?!”

“We just landed barely an hour and a half ago. Chill out. And nobody wants to see a rotten tomato fucking a marshmallow on a balcony, er, no offense, Keats.”

“Full offense,” Keaton responded, deadpan and not really meaning anything, “just because we’re married doesn’t mean the sexual escapades stop, my dear rodent. Your virgin eyes and ears should just be happy we haven’t tried to join the mile-high club yet.”

The man sighed, trying not to make eye contact with either of his, begrudgingly, friends. “Yeah, whatever…”

“Begone, pervert!” Wade concluded before shooing his friend away from the door and closing it. As soon as the couple made eye contact they burst into more giggling.

“He really should be used to this by now,” Keaton sighed, cheeks flushed.

“I think the only person who has and will ever get used to it is you, pumpkin, Hell, I can’t believe we’ve kept it together this long… I mean, I’ve woken up every day since the wedding, stared at that ring and thought, ‘shit… I’m married to someone who really gets me. I didn’t even think that was possible. A rare score for Wade Wilson.’ Then I usually visualize some confetti, y’know, for added effect. Why’re you looking at me like that?”

“Because I love it when you smile like a doof when you ramble.”

“I’m not smiling! You’re smiling!” Wade attempted to make himself frown but found it nearly impossible, especially when his stomach began to growl. “Sounds like the black hole tank is empty again.”

“Let’s go see what there is to eat around here,” Keaton grabbed his husband’s hat and placed it on his head before kissing his nose, “stud.~”

!Dating Sukuna HeadCanons!

Scenario:-what would it be like to date ryumen sukuna?

Pairing:-sukuna x gn!reader{shell}

Genre:-fluff

Type:-headcanons

A/N:-i hopy you like this @shelly-stark-official! I tried:’)

Okay

SO

Sukuna is a little shit

But its fine cos so are you~

Honestly the fact that the kINg oF cUrSeS fell in love with your devious and scheming self was not a surprise

Especially not to yuuji(poor fella had to share all of sukunas thoughts abt you and while u and itadori were besties.sukuna wasnt um...thinkin of you in a um platonic way)

(Like at all)

So when buddy boi finally asked you out

And although it felt weird um datin someone who shared the same body as your best friend,you got used to it and yuuji learned not to be so awkward abt it too...

And the moment he suggested you play a (borderline sadistic) prank in yuuji,you paused for a sec before agreeing~

And the moment he suggested you play a (borderline sadistic) prank in yuuji,you paused for a sec before agreeing~

(You knew youd be able to use your quirk if something rly badd happened to him)

And lemme tell you ‘kuna fell even deeper in love~

Sometime you and him and yuuji go out for lunch and while yuuji is the one in control,sukuna opens up those lil mouths on yuujis palms and under his eye to talk to you.

You feed him fries and yuuji hates that the grease is getting on his face😭(ples apologise to our best boi 😔)

So many ppl were like legitimately scared of sukuna but to you he was just a little shit and honestly? I think yall’d be cutee together (i wanna be the ring bear! 🐻)

(I think ur dates would include LOTS of scheming but also bitchin,cos this man has THOUSANDS of yeaes worth of tea to spill and hearin abt ancient gossip is still funny as shit🙈)

Now a little on the powercouple dynamic~

I think that while yall would tease and joking insult eachother,if anyone else tried dishing out jabs in your respective directions the other wouldnt stand for it

Like if someone ELSE calls u idiotic,theyre begging for mercy in a second

And if anyone calls sukuna something insulting,you’re basically walkingg them upto deaths door urself

And if You ever mention how this means he cares abt you,he will in fact go into denial and completely invalidate your opinion on the subject

Furthermore if anyone ever speaks badly of the two of you as a couple (i.e. gossiping and such) yall would just completely ignore them

Like who cares if a barely succeeding apprentice sorcerer doesnt approve of your relationship?????

Yh thats right,no one!

And just to piss em off further,i think hed suddenly initiate a particularl Passionate kiss in front of the gossiper.

Suffice to say that shut em up,for better or worse

I dont really think sukuna would ever fully open up to anyone,not even his s/o.but every so often you do catch glimpses of who he is deep down.its usually blink-and-you-miss-it moments but youve caught some

He doesnt really carw about how open you are either but i think itd make him feel special if you are morw open and vulnerable with him.again,he rly doesn’t give a fuck but it just makes him feel a certain way,y’know?

please dont repost my work here as your own on any platform all rights belong to me except that of the characters used,their right belong to their respective owners.but these stories? mine.

feedback,likes,reblogs and comments are so very appreciated tbh :’)i hope you enjoyed and ill catch ya next time!

lululawrence’s May 2021 Fic List

[deepperplexity]

I see that you are hurt by dumb dramatic readers and it honestly makes me so sad because you are so brilliant and amazing and I look forward to everything you do~ ❤

I'm not hurt but pissed off tbh, and it takes a bit before I get there so... And not for myself as much as for others. I just don't understand why it's so difficult to read those 5-50 words that tell you what you need to know...

For myself it's more the audacity of some readers to demand a second part, a new chapter or another book as their first interaction with me - no likes, no comments, no reblogs, nothing at all - and then they come inte my inbox or DMs, or they comment somewhere with "I want a third book" or "Do a second part to this! I need it!" - excuse you?! The audacity of some.

Now, I know my readers, I know some are too shy to comment or interact and I know some devour everything I post while being invisible and that's okay, that's their choice even if it does contribute to creators not creating content anymore, but to not exist and then BOOM come and demand things of me? Um, no. And, to think there will be new content when it's not encouraged from the start or somewhere along the way? Again, no.

We, fandom creators, do everything for free. We labour for hours upon hours and spend extreme amounts of time, though, feelings and energy on our creations and trust me that will not last if there is nothing given back by the consumers - throw in sudden rude demands and creators will absolutely say "goodbye, I've had enough".

I've been close a few times, to just pack it up and not do this anymore. The thing keeping me going are all my loyalists. The ones who always comment, always interact, always takes those extra minutes to give something back almost each and every time. There aren't many as I write for very small fandoms, with a very specific writing style, but my loyalists are AMAZING. Some have even gone so far as to make me fanart for my fics and that still blows my mind. Sometimes I think of that when I feel like it's not worth it.

But, the thing is, I still get people who are demanding things (and I don't mean "Will you make a part two of this? It was so good I absolutely loved it! +Kudos/like +reblog" but the "Make a part two!" from new ppl who haven't shown any previous hints of existing and has done nothing to show they appreciate my work) and it drains me of my creativity. My will and want to create.

We are human. We have thoughts, feelings, wants and needs - that's where all the creative stuff we make comes from in the first place. That needs to be replenished, needs to be cared for and nurtured. That consumers aren't even willing to read the provided information, that is there for their benefit, and then proceed to comment in a way that is hurtful to the creator when the creator has done their job that isn't even an obligation but a courtesy is like expecting a colourful piece of art to take form when all you give the creator to work with is dried up brushes and a bucket of grey paint, if even that. You can't create a colourful rainbow like that...

I guess I'm just angry that some don't even take a second to think about what they are commenting, what they are saying or demanding of another human that works for free for your entertainment... You can't even say "Thank you" or press a button to share the thing you enjoyed? But you can deman them to work more, work harder and give you what you want without consideration for them?

(If you who are reading this feel attacked by this, think about why you feel attacked... Why you feel guilty... Why you are angered about these words... Think about it.)

And Nonny, THANK YOU FOR YOUR CARE DARLING! You are so sweet and I am very grateful to have people like you here. I hope you'll continue to enjoy my work for as long as it's here and as long as I keep producing new stuff ♥️ Thank you so much for your care and I hope this wasn't a far too long reply and I do feel a little silly because this got a little out of hand. I'm just so angry for creators. 😞♥️

for the youtube thing can u plese do the mouth to mouth challenge, i really want u to write it cause u r like the best writer ever , way better then me

TH’s YouTube Extras: Mouth to Mouth Challenge

a/n: you are too sweet gosh asdfghjkl thank you angel. i hope you enjoy this lovely! ❤ oh and it’s suggestive in some parts but not much hehe.

☰ youtube channel | recent video

-:-:-:-:-

"Right, mouth to mouth challenge here we go!" Tom rubbed his hands together enthusiastically, gaze set on the camera as a wide grin played on his lips. "We each have to take the opposite sides of the food in our mouths and the first one to do as much as look away, loses the round. The overall loser gets to do a forfeit which will be decided by the boys."

You and Tom were both sitting side by side on the couch and much like before, the camera right in front. Harry was right behind it and this time he was joined by Tuwaine. Harrison was MIA given that he had errands to attend to.

"You seem a bit too excited," you teased.

Tom shrugged, turning to you with that charming grin. "I get to be so close to you and stare into those lovely, beautiful eyes, of course I'm excited."

"As if you don't already do that on a daily," you pointed out, amusement laced in your tone as you shook your head at your man.

"Yeah, I do. But I can never get enough of those gorgeous eyes, darling," he gushed, brown orbs glowing with adoration when it locked with yours, Tom flashing you that bright smile of his you always adore.

You beamed at him with a soft giggle, shaking your head before turning to the camera to shoot it a sympathetic smile. "He's just a walking ball of cheese guys, I apologise," you joked.

"As if she doesn't love it," Tom scoffed with a playful roll of his eyes, giving the camera a look before turning back to you. "Let's get into it shall we?"

"Let's."

Tom held his hand out. "First up," he paused, catching the candy—not so smoothly—that Tuwaine threw and then presenting it towards the camera. "Kit Kat."

"Break it like a sane person, Holland," you warned, Tom's laugh booming soon after your comment.

He knows how to eat a Kit Kat obviously, he does have brain cells. But other times when he feels like being an extra little shit, he breaks the bar the opposite direction on how you're supposed to, leaving you with uneven Kit Kat pieces. It honestly drives you up the wall all the damn time, Tom saying how he finds it so cute how you get riled up by a candy bar, hence why he does it whenever he can. It's one of the many ways he uses to press your buttons, all from love and affection of course.

Placing the tip of Kit Kat between his teeth, Tom leaned back on the couch, arm resting behind you as he shot you a nod. You moved closer, hand rested on his thigh as you took the opposite side. You two moved closer in fits of giggles as you ate the candy little by little, eyes locked securely that it was hard to determine on who would give up first. That until Tom decided to play dirty, literally.

He started groaning and moaning in a hush manner, pretending to enjoy the chocolate a bit too much. But you know what he was trying to do and given the proximity that you two are in, you can hear the sounds he was making very clearly and it was very distracting. It was when he shot you a wink that you pulled away, shaking your head to rid of the heat that coated your face.

Tom ate the rest of the chocolate with a hearty laugh. "I'd win this on a streak," he said smugly.

"Stop making those sounds Thomas," you complained in a whisper, Tom turning his head to look at you, acting all oblivious even though he knows what you meant.

"What sounds?"

You rolled your eyes.

A thought crossed your mind once you saw the next candy that Tuwaine tossed. You hummed to yourself with a nod. If Tom was going to play dirty then, might as well give him a taste of his own medicine.

"Sour belt this time," Tom said, showing the camera the candy over his palm like it's a make-up product. He did the same as before and placed the end of the strip between his lips.

Hand still firmly on his thigh, you started at the bottom since the candy was hanging down Tom's chin, keeping your gaze locked with his. Tom's eyes followed your form as you lowered yourself, orbs looking up at him with that all too familiar gloss. You darted your tongue out to take the candy between your lips before they started to move in a way that made Tom's insides churn. You looked at him through your lashes as you ate the candy inch by inch, giving his thigh a pointed squeeze. Tom choked in a breath at the sight, dropping the belt as he looked away with a low growl before things start to escalate in his head, knowing he can't hide it in his sweatpants.

A cheer erupted out of you as you sat straighter and turned to the camera, candy in mouth with both your hands thrown up in the air. "Point for me!" you laughed once you've eaten all of it.

Tom shook his head, gaze trained on the ground since his cheeks were now coated with a deep shade of red. "Not fair," he grumbled, the hand he had behind you picking at the material of the couch to distract his mind.

"What? I wasn't doing anything wrong," you hummed, tilting your head to the side as you looked at him with a pout.

It was Tom's turn to roll his eyes.

"Okay, last one," Tom said, catching the box of Jaffa cakes easily. He took one out and placed it between his teeth. This time, you had to move even closer to reach him since the length of the cake was much shorter than the previous candies.

As you started to lean in to take the other end, Tom dropped the Jaffa cake at the last minute to give you a loud—and very surprising—peck on your lips. The smack echoed around the room as you stared at him wide-eyed before your brain finally registered what had happened.

"Tom," you whined, dropping your head on his shoulder to hide the embarrassment on your face. Tom lets out a hearty laugh, wrapping his arms around your shoulders with a kiss landing on top of your head.

"She always gets shy whenever I give her random affections in public, or in this case, showing it online," he said towards the camera. "It's so freakin' adorable."

"Such a huge cheeseball," you grumbled before sitting up to meet his eyes. "You dropped the cake so I won. That makes it 2 for 1 so ha! You're doing the forfeit." You stuck your tongue out at him before turning to the camera with a proud glow on your face.

Tom shook his head with an adoring smile as he ogled at you fondly. He loves seeing you win, it's honestly the most endearing thing no matter how little the achievement and it makes him feel like he won himself.

"Totally worth it," Tom chuckled with a shrug.

"Until you see the forfeit," Harry quipped, Tuwaine coming over and handing Tom a glass of a very odd looking liquid.

"Oh no, what's in this?" Tom asked, a sharp grimace coating his face as he took the glass. He gave it a waft, gagging soon after with a look of downright disgust. "Mate, what the fuck is this? You guys trying to kill me or something?"

"It's everything you just ate blended together with a few secret ingredients," Tuwaine laughed.

"Bottoms up, babe," you giggled.

Tom looked at you with a deadpan expression as if to say, "Really?" You only shot him a bright smile, Tom sighing before his gaze landed back on the concoction.

"Can't believe I'm doing this," he muttered, hand coming up to pinch his nose before he threw his head back and took a big gulp. "It's actually not that bad when you get the smell out of the way," he hummed, smacking his lips as he eyed the drink in his hand.

"You are a weirdo," you laughed with a scrunch of your nose.

"I'm your weirdo," he retorted with a smug grin.

"Can we put a cheese counter in the corner of this video?" you joked.

Tom laughed with a shake of his head. "Well, that was very anti-climatic," he paused, showing the camera a peace sign and adding, "See you on the next one guys!"

Harry threw a thumbs-up to signal cut.

Tearing your gaze away from the camera, you turned to your boyfriend just in the nick of time. "Hey!" You snatched the drink away from Tom when he started to bring it up to his lips again. "What on earth are you doing?"

"It's not that bad, love," Tom chuckled.

"Yeah, until you complain about stomach aches and frequent visits to the toilet," you scoffed with a roll of your eyes. Standing up from your seat, you jabbed a finger at Tom. "Brush your teeth. No kisses for you until you do so." You raised a knowing brow at him before making your way to the kitchen to get rid of whatever this liquid is.

"Love you!" Tom called out lovingly, your voice echoing from the kitchen soon after.

"Love you too!"

"Ugh, so much cheese in this house it's starting to smell."

"Harry, you've never sounded more single."

"Fuck off, Tom."
