Pairing: Billy Russo x F! Reader

Warnings: Swear words, alludes to smexy time(mostly PG-13), Billy being possessive and jealous, mentions of Billy’s commitment issues, no use of “y/n”

Word Count: 2K-ish

Summary: A brief run in with your ex puts Billy in a mood and has him wondering about how the love he has for you compares to your previous relationships

A/N: Random thought, good thing there are a lot of pictures of Ben online. I like to use a different one for each of the moodboards I make. Title is a song by Lifehouse that I’ll link at the end (one of my favorites)

As always, thank you for reading!  I appreciate it so much and comments, reblogs are welcome and encouraged. Don’t be shy to tell me your favorite part. 💕💕 💕

A quick run-in. That’s all it was.

A brief encounter with an old boyfriend while on a night out with your current boyfriend left Billy feeling possessive, unsure, and a little jealous.

You could see the frustration in his onyx colored eyes that shined like two flat black marbles under the warm city street lights. His cheeks were flushed with anger and he gripped your hand tightly as you continued to walk down the sidewalk.

His silence was a sign of irritation, anger, and what he considered to be weakness. And it was because you knew he loved you more than anything but the threat of anyone taking you away from him scared him to death.

It hasn’t always been easy. He was easily triggered by any man’s glance lingering a little too long, an innocent smile in your direction, and god help them if they tried to flirt with you in front of him. Sometimes they were just THAT bold but that was no excuse for him to threaten them like he did or worse and you repeatedly had to tell him that…firmly.

Fuck, you loved him for it though. No one fought for you as hard as Billy did, loved you as fiercely, and that just deepened your love for him. Nobody would ever take you away from him. You’d never let them.

It pained you to watch him suffer in silence, to not be able to always say what he wanted to or to express to you how he was feeling. The smile had disappeared from his face as soon as your ex stopped you mid-stride, Billy’s eyes slowly narrowed when you introduced them to each other, and there was a thread of warning in his voice as he said “Nice to meet you.” Billy’s lips pulled back to reveal clenched teeth as you politely smiled and said “It was nice to see you” then you continued the walk home.

As soon as the elevator doors closed, Billy turned feral, the hungry kisses, his teeth nipping at your chin and jaw then kissed the smooth skin of your throat, and lightly biting the spot where your neck meets your shoulder, making you gasp into his ear.

Intense desire burned in his eyes for you as his hand disappeared under your blouse and tickled the sensitive skin of your stomach. Hearing his name escape your lips turned him on and you could feel his hard cock against your core as he pushed up against you in the corner of the elevator.

His touches and kisses were urgent like he was trying to prove something and he encouraged you to touch him more like he was starved for your affection when it was clear to you that he just needed some reassurance. Billy wanted to feel your nails scratching his scalp or your hands clasped behind his neck with your legs wrapped around him as he lifted you off the floor and pinned you to the wall.

There was a touch of acid in his tone as he sharply said, “You’re mine.”

Your eyelids were warm with his breath and a growl came from deep down in his throat as he continued to firmly press his body against yours like he didn’t want you to escape. The grip he had on you eased only after you whispered against his ear, “I’m yours, Billy. It’s ok. You don’t have to hold on so tight, my love.” Billy eased up on the tight grip he had on your hips and slowly backed away to allow your feet to touch the floor. “Thaaaaaat’s it.”

Looking up at him through your long dark lashes, you wanted to reassure him and tell him that he was the only one for you so without saying anything, you raked your nails against his scalp and gingerly pulled down on his neck so you could touch your forehead to his. It was calming and soothing to him and helped to bring your breathing back to normal.

Billy’s lips touched yours again, softer this time, and you faintly tasted the vanilla and cloves on his lips from the bourbon he had earlier tonight. He stayed close and long enough to be able to inhale your scent and feel the warmth of your skin against his fingertips.

You could still smell the spicy cologne left on his shirt from this morning as you loosened his silk tie, it felt cool to the touch as it slid through your fingers just as the doors to the elevator opened again on the penthouse floor.

With your knees trembling slightly and your legs threatening to give out, he laced his fingers with yours to lead you off the elevator and quickly ushered you inside.

It felt good to be home.

The two of you left a trail of clothes from the front door to the bedroom and you wasted no time falling into each other, Billy teased you and touched you right where you needed it the most, he took his time ravaging every inch of you, your body short circuited when he touched you but in the best possible way, and he didn’t stop until you were overstimulated and he pulled every orgasm out of you that he possibly could. Or, in his words, until you were “properly fucked.”

Still tangled in each other’s limbs, your eyes opened again before his did after a short sleep. Your eyes flicked from his hand enclosed over yours, up to the peaceful look he had on his face as he slept. Listening to the steady beat of his heart, a slight smile stretched across your lips as you felt his chest gently rise and fall underneath your head.

His raven colored hair had fallen down onto his forehead to graze the top of his eyebrows, you wanted to move it away from his eyes but you didn’t want to disturb him.

He slept so little.

You managed to unravel yourself, throw on one of Billy’s t-shirts, and get out of bed all without moving the mattress too much. You needed a drink of water. As you started to tip toe out of the bedroom, you heard his soft silvery voice cut through the silence.

“Did you love him?” He choked out with bitterness in his voice.

Your heart sank like a lead weight and shattered as soon as it hit your stomach. The lump in your throat prevented you from giving him a rapid response.

Finally, without turning around you managed to choke out, “Billy…”

“Did you…love him?” Billy repeated again.

You turned to face him. Billy’s jaw was clenched, his breathing was shallow, and his stomach muscles stiffened. Although you knew running into an ex would probably happen at some point, you had hoped it wouldn’t.

“At one time, yes…yes I-I did.” You replied, walking back toward the bed.

Billy’s top lip curled back away from his teeth, he shook his head and said in a frustrated tone, “I guess that’s the difference between your exes and mine. I never loved them, any of them. And I’ll never be the only one who’s loved you.” His New York accent a little heavier now.

Billy’s childhood experiences had prevented him from forming any kind of romantic relationship. It had always been purely physical but you were different and it all changed the day he met you.

The wall he put up was no longer impenetrable, his smiles traveled all the way to his eyes, and the ache and heaviness in his heart seemed to finally subside. He knew it would always be there but it hurt just a little bit less.

Your body went numb as you climbed back onto the bed and into his lap. Billy never had a model for what love is, he didn’t know how but he knew when he was with you, he felt…different.

“Well…that’s love, Billy.” You had said to him months ago with a warm smile.

He replied, “But I’ve never known what that feels like, sweet girl.”

“I think you do now.” You had said, pushing yourself up onto your toes and gently pressing your lips to his.

He knew there had been other boyfriends but he never had to meet them face to face, shake their hand, or forced to watch the way they doted on you, hung on your every word, or think that they even came close to loving you as much as he did.

Billy rested his hands on your hips while you snaked your arms around his neck. He briefly closed his eyes as you delicately scratched his scalp with your fingernails; it was one of his favorite things you did for him.

As you brushed his beard with your thumb, you just smiled at him and replied, “Billy, my love…you’re right…you aren’t the only one.”

Billy looked confused and suddenly his face was overwhelmed with sadness, almost anger but before he could react, you finished your sentence.

“But you’ll always be the one who loved me the most.” You said as a tear streaked down your cheek. “There’s a reason I’m not with any of them anymore, Billy.”

He didn’t say a word, just smiled his perfect smile and pulled you in closer. Holding you in a crushing grip, Billy’s lips collided with yours, his tongue parted your lips to entangle with yours, and his hand traced along the sculpted hollow of your throat. You choked on your need for him with his mouth slanting over yours and you never wanted to let him go.

“Because you’re meant to be with me, sweet girl. I know I love you more than any of those others ever have.” He growled. “But I could tell, I could see it in his face that he still loves you, and I just…” Billy paused. “I just want to be the only one who gets to love you.”

His competitive nature had him striving to be the best at everything. He didn’t care what he had to do but he was going to win…especially when it came to your love.

You could feel all the muscles in his body tense at the same time. Billy was a marine, a scout sniper, physically strong, smart, and determined but sometimes it was easy to forget that there was a scared, broken little boy inside who just wanted to be loved.

He wanted affection but didn’t know how to ask for it without appearing vulnerable and he always wanted to be in control. But there are always going to be circumstances that he can’t control which he was still in the process of learning.

“Billy…you know that’s something neither one of us can control, I can’t help the way they feel about me but you are the ONLY one who will ever GET my love in return.” You said with a hitch in your voice but with assurance.

Again, Billy didn’t know what to say but at that moment, his endless brown eyes said everything he couldn’t say out loud. They said “I love you” and “thank you for loving me.”

You weren’t expecting him to but he said the quiet part aloud.

“I love you and thank you for loving me, sweet girl.” Billy whispered against your lips.

He let his head fall into your neck and shoulder after he kissed you again. You could feel his warm breath going through the t-shirt and brushing against your skin underneath as your lips curled to reveal a loving smile.

“You’re easy to love, baby. Frustrating as fuck sometimes but easy to love; And I love you too.” You said with a little laugh which made him chuckle too.

Billy Russo was so much more than his money, his charm and his good looks. If anyone, including his mother, had bothered to look a little deeper they would have seen an unwavering, intelligent, hard-working, wonderful man and the only wish he had was to mean something to them other than for the money in his pockets or a piece of arm candy. Lord knows he wasn’t perfect but he was perfect for you.

Billy didn’t anticipate someone like you to come into his life, someone that tried a little harder, that didn’t give up on him when he shut down, or that really wanted to get to know the man underneath the fancy suit.

You were unexpected, a startling surprise yet welcomed and you were the one he had waited his entire life for.

I'LL IMAGINE WE FELL IN LOVE

ft. subaru kagami, haku kusanagi, zenji kotodama

summary ; the hotarubi ghouls and lyrics from blue by yung kai.

notes : hi tkdb fandom i got roped up in this silly game and started writing for it. oops. sorry if they're ooc in any way, im still kinda new ... (ﾉД`)

SUBARU KAGAMI

"You'd be mine, would you mind if I took your hand tonight?

Know you're all that I want this life."

Subaru had never been one for physical affection. He'd feel far too guilty about having taken an nonconsensual glimpse into the other person's memories. Poor boy, really.

There's no difference in his reaction when your fingertips brush against his skin when you had picked up the sweet little treat Subaru had offered you from his hand. You barely even had any time to react before he started apologizing profusely, slipping on his gloves.

Subaru paused when he felt your hand on his skin again, images of your memories flashing through his head. He tried to pull away, only to find that your hand was wrapped tightly around his wrist. He looked up at you, an understandable look of confusion and surprise marring his pretty features. "I don't have anything to hide from you." Is all you say, with that sweet smile Subaru had fallen for. Your hand moves from his wrist, instead slipping your fingers between his own.

He finds himself unable to stop the pink dusting his cheeks, eyes wide.

You, however, took that as a negative reaction, pulling your hand away. But as soon as you did, his face fell almost imperceptibly, and he gently wrapped his hand around your own again.

Subaru thought it was greedy of him. He had everything already, fame, influence, the academy's trust, and so on. But he couldn't stop this feelings of wanting more.

No maybe not, because he would throw away all of those things if he could have you. You're the only thing he wants in this life.

HAKU KUSANAGI

"My love will always stay by you

It's stuck with you forever, so promise you won't let it go

I'll trust the universe will always bring me to you."

Haku has a playful and flirtatious aura about him that isn't lost to those he graces with his presence. It's simply in his nature – "a devilish charm," as Zenji puts it.

Him doing all these romantic gestures of giving you his umbrella or jacket, or walking you back to the cathedral after you've helped out in Hotarubi never really crossed your mind as, well, romantic. Though that seems rather silly now if you were to think about it.

But now you're wondering if this is all really just platonic when you find your hand on his chest, his heartbeat drumming against it steadily. It's faster than usual, you note. "Feel that? It's all yours, princess." He says in his usual playful, light-hearted tone. And for a second you want to reply with "Feel what? Your tit?" but the words die on your tongue as you catch sight of the distinctively soft gaze he has on you. The way he's looking at you doesn't match the tone he's saying those stupidly romantic words with, and you're not sure anymore whether you want to believe that this is all still purely platonic or that it's been romantic this whole time.

You don't say anything in response, but the way your body relaxes and you move to lean your head on his shoulder speaks volumes. Maybe you can't be together in this life, but the way he looks at you has you believing that Haku would find you in the next one, and the one after, and so on, no matter what it takes.

ZENJI KOTODAMA

"I think I'll picture us, you with the waves

The ocean's colors on your face

I'll leave my heart with your air"

Beauty can be found in anything. Zenji, being the artistic and passionate man he is, couldn't agree more to this statement. He finds beauty in anything and everything, even the seashell you picked up by the shore. He even wrote a poem about it.

Having been so distracted by Zenji's singing, you accidentally dropped the seashell, the object getting washed away by the waves. Without thinking, you ran into the water to chase after it, the small waves crashing against your feet as you trudged deeper and deeper into the ocean.

At some point, Zenji must have noticed you were missing, judging from his exclamation of "My dear! Be careful!" coming from behind you that the whole beach could probably hear... if he wasn't a ghost. Either way, his voice was enough to stop you from going any further, now realizing that you were knee-deep in the water.

You take a few steps back, a sigh escaping your lips as you realize and accept that that seashell was good as gone.

What you didn't realize though, was the way Zenji was looking at you. The moonlight casted a soft, silver glow on your face, highlighting your features. Zenji always knew you were beautiful, but this moment in particular, he could almost feel his heart beating wildly in his chest as if he were alive again. He truly felt like he could ascend right at that moment.

You had your gaze fixed on the horizon in front of you, and was only broken out of your trance as you hear Zenji start to compose yet another ode, only this time, it was about the fair maiden in front of him.

🌙some wildly cheap commissions!🌙

🙃 for some even wilder reasons 🙃

hey y'all. long post thingie but it's got cute pictures so please check it out

TRANSCRIPT OF POST

hey frens got something kinda somber to talk about. most of you are very aware of the existence of my beautiful fiance and co-creator of basically everything i do. zae and i are getting handfasted (marriage for pagans) in october, and have been living together for about 10 years. in 2021, zae got really fucking sick, and after a few false starts, was diagnosed with a rare for of vasculitis called granulomatosis with polyangiitis, GPA for short. it’s an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in blood vessels and other tissues, ultimately stopping blood from getting to the parts of the body that need it, affecting many areas, but primarily the respiratory system. while the cause isn’t known, it usually presents in people in their 50’s or 60’s, but complications from a third bout of covid-19 appears to have made it emerge way earlier for our boy. at least, that’s what we think. his case is extremely aggressive, advancing faster than anyone could have expected. in zae’s case, it actually attacked his kidneys first, and then went after his lungs, causing both to threaten shutting down for good. he was extremely anemic and needed a ton of transfusions, narrowly avoiding dialysis, and we spent weeks in the hospital keeping him alive. he was placed on two different kinds of chemotherapy to combat the disorder. he lost his hair, went through even more fatigue and pain on top of what the disease had already put him through, and had to accept a plethora of changes to his life that will last forever. a lot of you out there have harrowing experiences of your own when it comes to chronic and potentially terminal conditions, too, I’m certain. “it’s not fun” is an understatement. though there were a couple of really fucking close calls, zae’s GPA went into remission. his hair grew back fuller and more luscious than it had ever been before. (i later learned these are affectionately referred to as “chemo curls.”) remission for gpa is usually expected to last at least 5 years, potentially up to 20, before any symptoms resurface. but zae’s case was particularly aggressive, so of course he’s not so lucky. he’s relapsing now. his symptoms have been slowly returning, and it’s been decided that he’s going back on chemo. it’s no surprise that this shit is expensive, even with insurance. we’re still paying off the care he received last time because ‘murca. being disabled myself, work has been… let’s call it inconsistent, yeah? yeah, that’s a nice and comfortable thing to call it. no one’s doing well financially these days, so we of course have to get creative. long story short(er), i’m doing a commission special! for the next MONTH, i am offering fast commissions at crazy-low prices to try and help us create a cushion to keep us afloat and relatively comfortable while we begin the chemo process again. there’s several options for a variety of budgets, because i really hate the idea of seeking something for nothing, and i absolutely abhor having to reach out in this way. it makes me feel vulnerable and icky and… i’m sure you all understand that, too. i can’t thank you all enough just for following me, and engaging with mine and zae’s work. it may sound trite, but that really makes a difference to us, especially when we’re dealing with something so painful. so if you can’t or don’t want to partake of the sale, please know that you are still a huge help to us, and we seriously appreciate each and every one of you. like, so fucking much. thanks y’all love, fletch

Wildest Dreams

Years after your death, Ominis still remembers you.

[Fluff, Angst, and Smut]

[MDNI]

Ominis x Reader

I still remember the feel of you under my palms; every curve, every line.

Also on A03 and Wattpad !!

My wine glass sat empty on the table as I stood against the window. My wife is long gone, staying somewhere in the manor that wasn’t our bed. Not like I cared much anyway where she was. This marriage was a legal binding, nothing more.

I didn’t feel drunk enough, my mind was still not able to picture you, the last sensations of your skin under my fingertips.

~

When you came to Hogwarts, I felt nothing different, another girl who would swoon for Sebastian. Nothing more. In some aspects I was correct, with Sebastian even taking an immediate interest in you as well, but at the end of the day you always stood on my side. You told Sebastian to inform me of what he was doing, you aided me in telling him how the dark arts were wrong. I was beyond grateful when you saved Sebastian in that catacomb, without succumbing to darkness yourself.

~

That following year, when we returned to school, I had a new found love for you. Something in me clicked, and you were the only thing that felt right.

Sebastian asked you out first, pulling your attention away. When I heard of his feelings I gave up, knowing I had no chance to win your affections over him, but when you denied him a spark of hope lit within me.

“Why did you tell him no?” I asked on the way to class, eager to know why the man that most girls would kill to go out with was rejected by you.

“I- well I have someone else in mind.” You laughed, and merlin did it make my heart beat faster than it ever had. “I’m just waiting for him to ask.”

I felt a smile grow across my face in disbelief. She was waiting for someone else, and I hoped it was me.

~

That week Sebastian had gotten me to work up the courage to ask you out, a simple date to Hogsmeade, but I was beyond worried for your answer.

“Even if she doesn’t like you like that she’ll still go to Hogsmeade with you.” Sebastian grumbled. “Stop worrying so much about it.”

“I can’t!” I said as I paced our dorm room. “How do you expect me to stop worrying when this could change the whole trajectory of our friendship.”

“I know because it wasn't with mine, she still talks to me as if we are perfectly normal.”

“Ugh! You are different!”

“You’re impossible Ominis,” Sebastian said, “let's head to dinner so you can ask her.”

That walk was the worst, the panic was sitting in my throat and at any moment threatened to come out. We had gotten there before you, sitting at the normal spot at the Slytherin table. You came in with Poppy, and Sebastian told me you seemed excited. I hoped I wasn’t about to spoil your mood. The weight of the bench shifted slightly as you sat next to me.

“Hello boys!” You said gleefully.

“Hey.” Sebastian responded.

“Hello…” I spoke, cautious to not say too much. 

“You seem a bit quiet Ominis, everything okay?” You asked, touching your hand to my arm. I felt like fire was being shot through my body.

“I- uh- ahem,” I choked back. Sebastian chuckled and kicked my leg slightly under the table. “I do have something to ask you.”

“What might that be?”

“Would you- um.” I paused, taking a breath in. “Would you like to go to Hogsmeade with me after dinner?”

I listened to any sort of queue from you, something to tell me what your reaction was.

“I would love to!” You said  happily, and went back to eating as if my heart wasn’t exploding.

~

That night I waited for you by the front doors, our date beginning as soon as we both got dressed. The hall was nearly silent, and it racked my head into oblivion. I could hear you enter, and the quiet footsteps leading up to me.

“You look so handsome Ominis.” You had said as you got closer. I was wearing normal slacks with a white button down, something simple yet formal, to fit whatever you wanted this to be.

“Thank you…” I paused my heart thumping in my ears. “I bet you look beautiful as well.”

“Hm, well here.” You said as you grabbed my hand. Your own hand was soft and slender, and when you touched my hand to a comforting fabric I ran my fingers up along the stitch. “You can feel the dress, so that way you can actually mean it when you say I look beautiful.” You laughed and I swear you sound just like an angel.

“I do mean when I say you are beautiful.” I said to you, my hand resting on your waist, taking in the fabric under my palm. “I mean it regardless if I can see you or not.”

The walk to The Three Broomsticks was filled with your laughter, the sound of your voice lifting every worry I’ve ever had in my life. My hand rested on your lower back, you guiding us both there, my wand tucked away. It felt so freeing to just be. No expectations, all you wanted was my company, and that was all I asked from you as well.

That night you danced freely with me in that tavern, the music swaying your hips and spinning your footsteps. I wished I could’ve seen your smile. When we eventually left, the stumble back to the castle left us breathless, as the sun began to rise we watched it.

“Ominis…” You said, your voice laced with the sweetest sugars mankind has ever known. “I think I love you.”

“I-” Everything in me had frozen, my heart beating out of my chest, my fingertips on fire as I held you up. It took everything in me to swallow and speak, instead of standing in shock. “I- I love you too, more than you know.” 

You wrapped your arms around my neck, tugging lightly at the back of my hair. Your warm breath brushed my ear as you whispered; 

“Show me how much.”

I remember taking your face in my hands, pressing your lips against mine, the sweet lingering taste of butterbeer making everything seem unreal. My hands tangled in your hair as you pressed closer to me, it was intoxicating.

From that day on you were mine, and I held you every day and night, loving you loudly. I knew I would love you till the earth crumbled and the sun went dark.

~

Your scream woke me from the deep sleep I was in, and I desperately searched for you. Curled on the floor you were gripping at anything you could, which meant me when you found me next to her. I cried as I held you, your body withering in itself. Eventually your muscles tired themselves out, falling asleep in my arms that cradled you. That morning you awoke, tired from the near sleepless night you had just had.

“Why are you treating me like this?” You asked at breakfast. 

“I- do you not remember last night?” I asked in return.

“What happened? I know I didn’t sleep well, but that isn’t abnormal for me.”

“You… you were screaming,” I whispered, I tried to keep my voice steady. “It was as if you were in immense pain, as if you were being tortured.”

You didn’t speak, instead opting for silence between us. I didn’t push you for further answers, as I knew you would come to me when you were ready.

~

“I can’t do anything about it!” I cried out. A letter from my family came in during our seventh year, stating that I was to be married off after graduation. “I am forced by my family, love! There's nothing I can change!”

“Ominis you can! Tell them that you love someone else! Tell them that you do not love her!” You yelled back, frustration was bleeding through. The emotions were high between us both. “Tell them that you love… me.”

“I- you know I can’t.” I said, letting tears fall. “You know that they will want to kill you.”

You didn’t respond, and I wondered if perhaps you had left, given up on me and you, as if I was a hopeless case.

“I want to be yours Ominis.” You said finally.

“What-”

“I want you to take me,” you spoke again, cutting me off. “If I can’t marry you, then I want to be your first, and you, mine.”

“Are you-”

“Yes, I’m sure.” You placed a hand on my cheek. “It’s not like I’ll love anyone like I love you anyways. I want it to be you that ruins me.” 

I placed my hands on your cheek, pulling you in, just like that night. You were desperate, pulling at my tie, undoing it with haste.

“My love…” I said against your lips.

“Yes?”

“Let me take your time with you, please.”

You melted to my touch, and I took that as my yes. I picked you up, wrapping your legs around me, our lips never parting. I placed you softly onto the bed that you conjured the first night we were too tired to leave the Room of Requirement. It was our bed, one that I had held you in the dead of winter, where we cried, where we kissed. 

I kissed down your jaw, your neck, feeling my way around your clothes body with my fingers. You responded eagerly to my touch, soft breaths escaping your sweet lips. If I had no self control I could’ve taken you easily, the sounds you made fueling every part of me. I unbuttoned your shirt, slowly revealing the skin beneath, soft and warm. Wet kisses were placed, and you shivered. I was fast to end your torture, pulling your shirt off completely as I ravished the upper part of your body, the body that would forever be mine to cherish.  You pulled at my own shirt, tugging it off to reveal my own bare chest.

“You have constellations…” You said sweetly, kissing spots of my skin.

“Constellations? What do you mean by that love?”

“Beauty marks- they form patterns, like the stars,” you replied, “like you are your own universe.”

Something in me clicked, I pulled your skirt down, kissing your stomach down to your thighs. The taste of you still sits on my tongue, and I would give anything to taste something as sweet as you again. You squirmed under my touch, the feeling of your warmth against my mouth nearly sending me over the edge. I could feel the heat radiating off your skin, your impatience as I undid my own shirt and pants, the quiet excitement between us. I had thoughts of how it would feel, to be buried in you, to feel the warmth that is so often described as heaven, and in all truth, it was pure blissful heaven. Being close to you, while hearing you gasp my name out, it was the closest thing to an angel's voice I could imagine. You wrapped tightly around me, your fingers tangled into the back of my hair.

“I love you Ominis.” You moaned out, as I pushed deeper in you.

“I love you more my angel.”

~

I was sitting in my room when I heard it. Screams.

I ran out to the main hall, where your voice carried.

“YOU WILL GIVE HIM TO ME!” You screamed out. Gaunt Manor echoing your voice. We planned to run away together two days ago, but my father had caught on, keeping me trapped in this loveless home.

My father screamed, and then went silent. The pain afterward burned in my eyes, the once black world turned colorful, dropping me to my knees as everything came into view. I blinked, trying to take in what I was looking at, trying to keep myself from being sick. You stood at the bottom of the steps, my fathers bloodied body mere feet away.

“Ominis?” 

I looked at you more intently, and my god were you the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. A true angel from the heavens. But I didn’t even get to say goodbye before you were ripped away from me.

“AVADA KEDAVRA” Marvolo yelled, entering the house from the doors that stood tall behind you. The spell hit you in the back, your face in horror as you fell to the floor. A blood curdling scream left me as I watched your lifeless body drop, pathetically crawling to you, holding you one last time. 

You spoke, but I could barely focus. My father had cursed me, how you knew I didn't know. Everything was spinning, out of focus, except for you. My angel.

“You’re sad for this pathetic use of a witch.” Marvolo snarled, walking past my fallen love and I. “You will marry that girl that father said you would, since it was his last orders, but I am head of the Gaunt family now.”

I couldn’t think straight, nothing went the way it was supposed too, you were never supposed to die. I held you closer to me, trying to remember how you looked before you died.

~

I have lived many years without you, but I still remember the sun setting, the beautiful dress you wore before your untimely death. My wife does not know it, but our child is named after you, the name of the woman I loved. You will never be forgotten, and I will always hold you close, even if it is only in my dreams.

18+ POST LOOK AWAY 👹🔞 if you’re not 18+ PLEASE DNI with this post!! 👹🔞

(sketch and drabble and headcanons)

(jel/reth/oc stuff)

GO AWAY LOOK AWAY!!!!! IM WARNING YOU 🔪

SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP I CANT EVEN TAG THIS I DONT EVEN WANT PEOPLE TO SEE BUT I HAVE TO SHOW SOMEONE AND TALK ABOUT IT OR I’LL EXPLODE!!!!

i’m too shy to share the whole picture IM SORRY—i just wanted to capture a few headcanons into a single shamelessly horny drawing of the three of them together. also, my thoughts are completely unorganized and this post is mostly just me rambling!

small disclaimer, if you don’t agree with or like my headcanons, that’s totally valid but please don’t tell me so 🙇 i kindly ask you just move on from this post. thank you!

okay. so i feel like both reth and jel are service tops HEAR ME OUT—like, they’re both just a couple of pathetic lover boys who are so head over heels in love with you. the fact they practically always gift you something when you flirt with them in-game (jel gifting silk and reth gifting soup) i feel is their attempts at spoiling you and taking care of you in their own way. they just want to see you happy and make you cum your brains out a thousand times until you can’t think straight anymore 🥺

and in general, i feel jel would love to shower you in compliments and words of praise and practically worship your body. while i feel reth is the type to show you how he feels and relish in watching you come undone with him. but personally 👉👈 i feel jel and reth align more closely as switches because they’re both so.. so soft and need to be spoiled and loved so deeply (no innuendo intended)

with that said, i think jel is a more intimate and passionate lover while reth is a bit more unhinged and rough. that’s not to say jel doesn’t have his sadistic bouts. i feel it stems directly from his obsessive nature and grows into a desire to watch you submit to him and his whims, sort of in a controlling way. but it makes him so happy when you do. the need to know you belong to him, both your heart and body, is honestly really important to him. i actually feel he has control issues due to a number of reasons but that’s a different discussion—💀 and he rewards you so thoroughly for showing him how much you love him. god, the aftercare? he’s so gentle and attentive and treats you like the most precious thing he’s ever held.

more on reth, while not as sadistic, i feel he’s still plenty controlling when he wants to be. the poor man has hardly any control in his day-to-day life and the fact you allow him an ounce of control? over your body of all things? yeah, that shit drives him mad (positive). gets a bit carried away and leaves marks on your body, hickeys, scratches, bruises, the like. but hey, at least it’s a pretty reminder of how much fun you had together. plus, if anyone sees they’ll know you belong to him. but he definitely teases you about it the following days by making sly comments and even running his fingers over the more sensitive marks.

so, in my polycule i envision moments where two will actively spoil the other. so for instance like when maddox and reth want to spoil jel and shower him in the love and affection he deserves, he gets all shy and blushy but relishes in the moment. he pays them back tenfold once they’re finished, but not that same night. maddox and reth make sure he’s completely worn out so he’ll finally get some damn sleep for once. reth is the same in that regard; he gets all shy and blushy but he enjoys being spoiled for once. not having to care about anything or anyone else and focus fully on himself and his pleasure. and the two know this and want to show him how loved he is. lowkey i imagine jel bringing him to tears, crying tears of pleasure and from overstimulation but that may be a personal thing of mine. 💀 and as for maddox? they both know exactly which buttons to push. i imagine them sort of egging each other along. i mentioned earlier i think jel has a sadistic side to him, well i think the same of reth albeit not nearly as prominent. like, the fact he teases and flirts so much could be for a number of reasons, but how lovely it would be if it were only to watch their reactions each time. with that said, maddox happens to be very reactive and discovering that fact in bed, like, awakens something inside of him to tease more, to push as much as maddox will allow him. and yes, he notices the way jel reacts to it too. it only makes him want to tease him for the fact as well 🥴 WHICH is why i drew him with that expression LMAO normally i would’ve imagined him with a much softer and kinder expression but i think he’s quick to lose himself in the throes of pleasure which causes him to act a bit selfish at times. but like i said, i see him as a service top so really his ‘selfish’ moments are him just spoiling maddie and jel and showering their bodies with so much love and attention.

i have so many more thoughts but this post is getting long and i’m getting embarrassed so i’ll stop there for now.

hiii i saw your post asking for requests and i’m just wondering if i can request a hunter scenario where his s/o is doing his make up ? or them doing the lipstick trend ifykwim (the one where they have kiss marks all over their face and stuff) thank you so much !

HUNTER REQUEST; KISSABLE♡

~~~~~~~~~♡

Full, symmetrical. The way they were naturally pouty and inviting made his heart skip a beat. They felt soft and were soft. The way it would fit his perfectly made him want to slow down, enjoy the moment as the world came to a stop, the way they moved in syn-

"HUNTER!! Are you staring at my lips again??" I squint my eyes, watching the tall boy quickly turn his head, his cheeks red. "What..? Of course not love.." he answers after a while, avoiding my eyes as he scrolls on his phone. "Why would I ever do that.." he mutters to himself, glancing at me.

"Hmm.. it's just that.. well, you've been doing it all day." I cross my arms, watching him nervously looking around the room as I pass him a plate of food. "Thanks.." He mumbles, digging into his food as I sit in front of him, sipping some of my drink.

The room falls to a comfortable silence, the sound of chewing only heard as we enjoy our food. "The foods really good," hunter breaks the silence, chopping up some of the food with a knife as he circles it around my mouth, feeding me. I hum, opening my mouth to consume the food. "That's only because.." I stop to chew, covering my mouth as I continue.

"I added poison." I wink, making hunter chuckle. "Poison?"

"Yeah, it takes really good right now but that's only a side effect — once midnight strikes you'd be passed out."

"But what about you? You're eating the food too."

"I only put it on your plate.. mine is poison free."

"That may be the case.. but I just fed you some food from my plate. That means your affected too."

"Hunter!!" I gasp, holding onto my stomach. "Y-you knew from the start.. YOU'VE BEEN PLANNING THIS!!" I yell playfully, pointing my finger at him as he lets out an evil laugh.

"Haha!! You have fallen into my trap!" He cackles as I pretend to fall back in my chair, putting my hand on my face. "Just as I predicted.." he gets up, carefully picking up my body and laying me on the couch nearby.

My eyes closed, I feel his hot breath fan my face before he backs away for a second. "Hunt- AHH!!" I scream as he peppers my face with kisses, finally stopping at my lips to kiss me for a few seconds.

"W-what was that for?!" I sit up, my face red as I watch him grin happily. "All according to plan." He claps his hands I look down shyly, suddenly seeing a white flash.

His giggles fill the room as he takes a picture of me, my face red from blushing and large kissing marks. "Did you steal my lipstick?!" I hit his arm playfully, my lipstick sitting on the coffee table. "Look how cute you are~" he changes the subject, swiping the screen to show different photos of me.

"Y-yahh!! Delete that hunter!"

"But whyy?? You looks so CUTEE!"

"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"If I give you cuddles would you delete it?"

"NO!"

A/n: after reading this I realized it was no where near what was requested😭 I tried to put my own twist to it since their is already a story exactly like this (the request they wanted)

Still, I hope you somewhat enjoy this imagine and thank you for being my first request.

[jasmine-kika]

So, I made a Lucio AU for Overwatch 2. I found out about his backstory and Vishkar had taken their home and his dad worked for them. Omnic crisis went by and Overwatch came to help. But what if Talon found him while Lucio was taking tech from Vishkar for his skates and stuff and helped during the crisis instead of Overwatch. (Like, Talon got there faster that Overwatch and offered to help if Lucio went with them)

I drew him!! It’s after the lore and design rant if you wanna take a look. I also kinda animated what his weapon would look like in gameplay.



I seriously got the idea from listening to Chonny Jash, a cover music artist (idk if he makes other stuff, I have only listened to his covers). His stuff gave me this idea collectively. So songs in the same genre of music would be what this AU of Lucio makes rather than what he actually produces in the game.

I made him use more damaging attacks while still being a healer. He uses a gas similar to Moira’s heal while on that mode, although he doesn’t have the speed boost. He has a damaging attack in his bubble that affects enemies. It is a green gas. All the gasses are visible around him, so if this actually was made in a first person shooter, then the player’s screen would be slightly tinted yellow or green while using either one. I designed him with a gas mask because of this ability. His reload would be different, as his weapon is filled with the poison.(in the visual, the poison is visible as a liquid before being released as a gas (kinda like how a humidifier doesn’t use heat but still works) I was thinking it was an oxidation thing that makes it more deadly and also become a gas, so the tanks are vacuumed sealed) When he shoots, he does his normal sound wave attack, but if the enemy is close enough (and ignoring the poison in the original bubble) they’d get a lasting effect similar to Widow’s venom mine. It would continue until the player left his bubble. Almost all of the speakers on his armor-tech have been changed to where the healing gas or poison are released, and also his weapon is connected to tubes that carry the poison he uses, so it’s connected to his body. I couldn’t find a spot, so I used his shoulder.

Talking about the poison, I wanna talk about where it’s stored. I think in the original game, his hair is made from the light that Vishkar invented(I think it’s called Hard Light, but I’m 60% sure I’m wrong). In this version, the light is used as a wall for it and each loc is used as a storage compartment for the poisonous gas. The loc then connects to the headphones which transfer each compartment into two tubes which bring it to each exit.

I tried to think this through logically due to the science fiction in the game, some logic goes a long way, but also fun AU creation.

Random lore part of this AU: While Talon was going around to important places or whatever they needed to do, they ran into the deadlock gang(in this AU Cassidy never left the gang). They ended up fighting and Cassidy and Lucio got separated. Cassidy managed to sly talk his way to death (with training, Lucio got a shorter fuse and isn’t afraid of ending someone’s life). Lucio ended up ending Cass’s life and out of pure spite, he kept Cassidy’s revolver. So that’s just chilling in his pocket most of the time. I wanna say he’d eventually make use of it by learning how to use it, but that would take awhile and bring me too far into the future than I am at right now.

Note for drawings below: I used a picture of the Overwatch 2 skin and traced it to be able to change the colors. I added a couple details and I also changed the shape a little on the Weapon. (Smoothed down the speakers into just a rounder body of the gun. And I also made the tiny little tube on the bottom longer because of a reason I mentioned in my rant.)

Notes, continued…: For the animation, I just used a picture of someone using the Overwatch 2 Lucio skin and traced the gun and added my edits to the design before animating it.

There are tiny notes on the drawing if you can zoom in to see them.

Final Thoughts

Call it a love letter

Divider is from @/cafekitsune<3

Pairings: Akita x Usami, Akita focused

WC: -1.k

Notes: Angsty, wounds and blood, 1st person POV, canon compliant (AkitAmi bad ending</3) but no series spoilers

In another life, maybe things would be different.

If things were different, you would wake up to me in a kitchen in a house we live in together. I would cook rice, and in this life, I would remember the steps to cooking more things for breakfast. We would have normal jobs, whatever it is other people do that isn’t bathed in blood, and we would be happy. I’ve had this idea before, and I wouldn’t mind sharing it with you.

Another idea. We would still live together, but far in the future. We would have a car, and a big house. Your parents never allowed animals in the house, that’s what you told me. We could change that here, if you’d like. We would wear clothes that were comfortable, not stale and caked with gore. Mine would fit snug against my body, because I would buy them for myself, and they wouldn't be oversized, and I wouldn’t be underweight. You would do what you like best to make a living, and my hands would still smell like metal to do the same. Except the smell wouldn’t make my stomach sick, because I know it wouldn’t come from a gun in my hands, but it would come from doing things that help, instead of hurt.

But that isn’t our life here. We’re still soldiers, caked in blood, death on our hands, and everything else. You’re gone, I don’t know where you went. And it’s funny, it feels like this is the first time we’ve really been apart since we met. And as silly as it sounds, I miss you.

And now there's a hole in my head. It wasn’t there before. Fluids leak from it like tears from a third eye. It’s been a while since I felt myself cry. Bleeding came more naturally to me, but this was nothing like that. This didn’t hurt. In fact in a way, it was soothing, as the blood slipped into my eyes and down my face. It was warm against my mouth and it tasted like biting into an old coin.

My mind is blank. Almost, at least. Thoughts appear then slip away before I can figure out what they all mean. My gun drops from my hand because I forgot how to hold it correctly. I can see grass, a wooden house in the middle of nowhere. A cracked picture of a woman I can’t name and then a man whose voice I can’t remember. And just as quickly as he appeared he was replaced by a glass bottle aimed for my head. The rest of my memories are made of snow and distant voices.

But strange enough, there is one thing I can remember for certain; it’s you. Your voice. Your name. Your face. It comes as naturally to me as breathing, but I’m forgetting how to do that quickly. We spent a lot of time yelling at each other, didn’t we? But as hard as my body tries, I can’t think of you too poorly. My heart feels like it’s being squeezed in a vice any time I think of you. Isn’t that silly.

There is a part of me that wished it could see you one last time, before this bullet split my brain in two. Much like Ms. Asirpa and Sugimoto, you helped me learn something new. Like how those two taught me care, affection, love. It was you who taught me anger and irritation. Along with something else I can’t quite place. But those make me feel just as human as the others do, so I thank you for that. I haven’t felt human in a long, long time.

You were right, you know. I was barely human. I was… scared to admit that to myself. Since the day I was born, there was something wrong with me. Something missing, broken, forgotten. Whatever it was, I was born defective.

But the time I spent in Hokkaido, traveling with Asirpa and Sugimoto, bickering with you, being taught everything by you, it was the most human I’ve felt in twenty-five years.

Or was it twenty-six years? Just how long have I been wasting time with you? I came to Japan for one thing. What was it? I can’t remember anymore. Not that it matters. Whatever it was, I failed, and I can’t even be upset about it, because right now all I want is to hear that pathetic voice of yours say my name. But I don’t want you to call me Private Akita. Or Phantom. I want to hear that irritating voice call me by my true name. What was it, again?

How long have I been in Japan? However long it was, I wish I could’ve spent twice that with you. Maybe in a different life I could spend even longer listening to your voice, and have you help me remember all of the things I’m forgetting. But that’s only a dream I have before my head and body collide with the ground and everything turns black.

[sea-of-dust]

sayo hikawa x reader?

Bead chain

Ran,Sayo,Rui,Rimi,Toko x GN! Reader

notes: what if their collab counterparts affected their personalities

summary: NOT a persona reference in the name I swear!! Sorry I left u sitting in my inbox 🙇‍♂️

warnings: cant read Japanese so idk if ran was called anything different, not proofread, cursing

You never met someone so close to you...you wouldn't be surprised to find her breathing down your neck while gripping your waist like a corset

She'd take any chance she gets to flex that she's the fabled chainsaw man to win you over. "But dosent chainsaw man kinda...look more ya know...👹" "what do you mean?" "You know like more "I'm gonna eat your soul!! 👹👹" "eat mine" "what?" "What?"

Ran wouldn't have been too open about you when you first met, but now she's practically screaming them at you. "I LOVE YOU." "I know, Ran." "MORE THAN WHAT YOU KNOW!" Even with the sudden personality shift, she won't tell you how much she loves you down to every detail

She is alot like a dog tho. She'd sometimes lay down on the floor because it was too hot despite there being an ac on. If you laid next to her suddenly it's too cold and she's hugging you for "body heat" despite it being summer

Everytime she thinks too hard about you she yells her opinions. She's very "!!" "So about y/n" "YES?!" "how do you-" "I ADORE THEM!" there's an awkward silence. When you ask her why she does this she never brings herself to answering only blushing deeply and closing her eyes. "It's quite embrassing how much you like them" she'd cover her face with her hands she wouldn't be able to look at you for a few minutes.

"You're like a child Ran" you laugh softly kissing her forehead, she nearly turns red mumbling a tad letting out a soft squeal. "Is this a replacement for your usual barking?" You tease her more as her rambles get more rapid, the poor girls overheating

Ran... Kinda stares at you sleep... "to keep watch" no she just likes staring at you if something did catch her attention while asleep, she does check it out, but her running back to you to hide with you because the ghost might come up the stairs with her from the darkness.

"It's commin... hmmm" shed be asleep in secounds curling up to you. If it were serious she'd take care of it but the stair devil is quite strong!

She'd look at you wide eyed everytime she found something intriguing. "LOOOKKK" she held up a picture of a penguin looking at it like a children's youtuber trying to shock the audience. "A penguin I know a-" "TAKE ME THERE I BEG" she'd grab you by the collar before getting embrassed and puts you down blushing a bit. "You don't have to-"

You took her the next day and she was livid. Her face could make someone's thumbnail. "Can we take one home?" "They're wild animals Ran" "aw"

She'd have the sudden urge to have you wrapped around her finger. Not that she acts on it but it's very strong

Sayo would usually be quite timid with her affections, but now she's pretty straight forward to kissing you on the forehead in public areas before going back to normally sitting. You'd look at her incredibly flustered while she dosent even seem to look at you.

"Did you just -" You would lean in to kiss her but she'd stop you holding your mouth. "we're in public, dear." she keeps a straight face, yet her face nearly turns pink

She's fine with pda as long as it isn't nuts. Kisses are too far!!...unless she's giving them. She will let you lay on her shoulder and sleep there tho don't hug her in her sleep though...only she's allowed to do that

Sayos calm normally but now she's freakily calm. She'd give the most bland reaction to things expect for Hina. "Is that the thing Hina-" she'd grab it super quickly judging it before putting it back trying not to seem upset. "Did she..." "she ate my leftovers" "Figured...want me to-" "yes"

You've asked her if she wanted to be carried around so many times that sometimes she just acts like she's angry to get a free ride. She'd even go all the way and pretend to be tired as she gets to have a nice nap on your back. She feels guilty sure but...you kinda can piggy back her home from anywhere without her having to move her feet...very nice to have you around

She almost naturally says no to everything you wanna get her. Any act of service she's just all "No thanks" you've found a way around this tho

"Sayo look at this Keychain wanna match?" "We have a bunch of match Keychains" "what about some food?" "You've already taken me to eat y/n" "do you not wanna get carried around" "no- wait-" "ah finally a back vacation" "I wasn't paying attention!" "Hehe" it's fun watching her blush and her eyes widen.

She'd have a picture of you next to her desk. If someone would ask she'd turn away and look up a bit always facing the window. "Who's this?" The sun would be flashing in her eyes but atleast they didn't see her blush over you "a friend" she wouldn't be able to turn to that person the entirety of the convo

Always texts you good morning and good night if she doesn't she'll apologize the next morning with the most wild explanations. "Sorry, sorry tried to steal my gutair while I was on a train" "sorry the moutain I was on didn't have good service" "sor-" "Lemme guess another band war" "...yes" you huff softly "figured"

You wouldn't be surprised if you woke up Mashiro texting you about how to deal with her

"Mueh he he he Humans are so feble!" "Toko were at a burger king..."

Swear you'd catch her and ran bickering like children every two secounds, if it weren't for you hitting her with the "this isn't you 😰" rizz, those fights could have been more of a pain.

She narrows her eyes at you sometimes. "Toko?" "Hmmmm" then slowly move her hand to yours as if trying to distract you from a hand hold. "Toko you know I know your holding my hand ri-" "LOOK OCTOPUS SAUSAGES" mission successful no causality

She'd look so confused when rui asks her wrf she's doing like she isn't trying to take over the world with ran in the corner. Fym she can't make a lil statue of you out of toilet paper fine it's a power ranger! NOT EVEN THAT?!

"Come on!! It's just toilet paper" "do you know how annoying it is when ur trying to get some and it's just the brown roll? No!" "I'll buy some for myself then!" "Do it then!" You go into ruis apartment to a poorly sculpted power ranger of toilet paper

"...." "please...don't ask" "GO GO POWER RANGERSSS" "so uh" "sighhh" she acts like her mom swear if your there for her lecture she'll give you puppy dog eyes. "Aww rui be kind it's only a toilet paper statue" toko would hug you grinning at rui while you could see ruis eyebags get darker.

She loves you, herself, and her cat. So much when her cat shows her affection she starts showing you the same kind...aka she licks you. "Y/n you taste like sweets" "quit doing that!" "What I'm cleaning you off" "wha- rui help" rui sighed staring at her. Toko usually ignores it

She holds you tightly alot. Always curling up to you when asleep or just lounging when alone with her. "Human it's cold hold onto me!" "Your hands are pretty hot tho" "do it!" She really likes those cuddles she needs you as a blanket

She fights over you with her cat. "Meowey!" She'd catch you petting her cat "How dare you both betray me!" "There's space for you toko" you pat the spot so softly and kindly she forgets why she's mad curling up to you just like her cat.

Even the choco coronets can't save her...

Even the worst of scares scare her. A simple sneak up "AH!!" A ghost printed out on a page "AAAAAAGHHHH!!" A ghost picture being hung on a fishing rod out her window "KYAAAAAAA A SHOPPING LIST!!!"

She's very scared but also oddly capable. She was able to easily handle toko without toko using her powers but still pretty cool

She'd look so traumatized offer to do anything nice she'd look like she'd have to repay you forever.

"Is this really ok?" "It's just ice cream Rimi" "yes but..." she looks up nervously "please have it Rimi" "ehhh alright..." You smile watching her eat the ice cream

She's very timid asking you random questions when your about to go to bed. "Y/n... y/n...would you love me if I was a worm" "I love you so much I'd turn into a worm with you" you hug her tightly and she'd melt

She hates when someone brings up the time ran went berserk and forced her to dance...or Vance 😔. God, there might be a video of her out there just dancing the pain away. That's why whenever you say something that has "da" in it she just kinda 😨

The choco cornets save her from inpending doom. Everytime you buy her a bag she's just 😨, but then again she's always like that. Nearly cries over them after a long day of trying not to get slapped around by devils

She drives you around on her bike. "As a way to repay you" you don't feel as if she's had to but still begs you to let her.

Please let her attempt to kiss you. She can't if you've tried to kiss her back, pretend not to notice so she feels like she snuck up on you.

"So can I cut off your hair and make it my family herloom?" "...no" "aw.."

She'd look at you for the weirdest amounts of time. She wouldn't be looking at you at all and then suddenly she's all 👁👁

"...is there something on my face?" "A Stray hair," she moves it out the way. Sometimes, she just doesn't say a thing and just touches you, it sometimes frightens you how cold her grasp is.

She's so calm for her occupation. You find this a bit scary. "Someone tried to assassinate ran again" "...HUH- Are you ok?!" "I'm alright"

She likes whenever you lay on her lap, laying your head there and look up at her. She makes sure to pat your head only when you're asleep, she gets embrassed when you're awake and you noticed

She likes cooking for you in the morning. Watching your reaction as your eyes widen as if this was a surprise at this point. "One of these days I'll wake up earlier to make you breakfast" "I'd like to see you try" you never did...turns out she wakes up at 5...you refuse to do that

You also have to deal with power and run. You're always on their side they like you more. "Rui, come on, I'll put them in the pantry when their done making a power ranger." "YEA" "YOU ANGEL," they both cling to your leg. "How will that even fit?" "I'll manage!" Both of them ball their eyes clinging to you

She definitely complains to you about work. "And then another band devil came outta nowhere." "Ah again," you put bandages over her wounds and pat her face when done. She leans into your hand, kissing your palm. "Yes, they get annoying after long whiles"

She enjoys you taking her out and paying for things. She has a small hobby of showing up at your job, tho... she wasn't supposed to know... "order for Ru-" "..." "oh hi ...Rui" you're so cute trying not to look at her as you hand her your order. So soft spoken...it's something she wishes to record but she knows you'd evaporate on the spot.

You like buying her keychains and having spares of everything. She loves that about you. Little decor mixed in with high-quality things she and you need. Ran and toko would ask about it, and she'd just prideful tell them she got it from you. Only a slight change in her usual calm personality but still visible enough. "Really, cinnamon?" "I never thought you were that kinda person, Rui." "No y/n got it for me" "....tell them to get me one too" "ONE FOR ME TOO HUMAN!" "sighhh"

Weirdness around Oct. 24th, 2021

this was a message i made to someone, a friend in this belief, on this day, around the afternoon after 4 pm. click on the read more link because it's long. This was my half of a conversation with someone so only focus on that, okay? okay.

::::: i have always felt it strongly, espeially more since that point and its flaring up really bad right now like intense. im trying to calm my breathing but i have to tell you. i am freaked out O_o

first off, my senses: my hearing is so freakily good - like based on whatever sound , even if it's talking, regardless of volume but especially if its to the point of under someones breath or whispering, i can hear it perfectly as if they are right next to me. thats the hearing . its always been like that

the sight: its like i almost dont even need my glasses anymore because given a 10 rating, my sight is more than that or exactly that and my glasses help better but its like i could be without them now and i can see everything with freakishly good clarity

the touch: i mean, plain and simple, down to perfection, thats an obvious

taste: same thing

feeling: thats the same as touch and taste but its like similarily , it feels more intense for me, everything/ living like you feel it normally as a human but its like idk, i dont know how to explain. it scared tf out of me

i was looking through one of the "Doctor Who' books i have, and i cant begin to express how much i felt a homesickness, sense of loss and pain and feeling of deja vu at the pictures it showed of Gallifrey, other places, the Tardis, other alien species and felt like i was home, like i had been there, like i had been among these species of aliens

im always watching and looking for anything strange, especially with close perimeter of where i live and im almost waiting for that door thing to happen again bc i still hear things outside and the strange lights in the sky, one in particular that feels like it could not be a star among any of them. the weird lights that are definitely not stars and the way theyd act, the movement, hearing things and the wierd lights on ground level like something among the trees, the animals sensing and even the baby sensing things in and outside the home that no one, even me, can see

references to Gallifrey, timelords and ladies, time and space, traveling, the Doctor, the Master, popping out everywhere, the name Clara too, same thing with 'ravens', the silent calls too have been constant lately. lets not even get started on my dreams and the meanings they seem to be sending

and from the begininning to now still: the sense of its like there is a home here, but i dont know how else other to describe it in a sense that like an object, youre here among it all so in a snese you are home but your NOT home because this isnt your home, this isnt your origin. I feel so disconnected / disassociated, like I'm here but I'm not really here. A sense of loss and feeling like there is something huge missing, because if this was truly a home HOME then i wouldn't feel like what really is, isn't here. Im trying to explain it a best version possible

countless of times, i look at this human family of mine and i think : yes that's my mom or my sister or my nephew or my brothers but its like thinking from their perspective and how they'd see me in comparison from me to them, there is a sense of difference that comes with that if only they knew, or that disconnection

the sense of what life might really be and the answers known and unknown , how it will affect my future and what they would find out and have to accept and deal with? that alone is just -

the reptitive numbers have been constant with 222, 111 or 11:11, or 1:11, 333, 444, 555, 777, 12:12, 10:10, etc. and that whole thing where my chest seems sensitive and more weird, i felt my chest, and i could have sworn by everything in me, that i felt a second heart. i know the placement of where the human heart is in the body and so based on where the second heart could be put, i felt the beats of it

and seemingly all around, i COULD be human but to experience everything i have and do, points to that i may be right now or , am put into a state where it will seem like that but im not and that i cant eveen begin to explain as to how that would make sense to another person's brain

and of course, i am never going to claim that i know every single little thing of information in the known and unknown parts of the entire universe but i feel like human or not, my knowledge over a lot is getting better and many a times, people have come to me to learn and know things and get advice and i have been seeing the shadows again and mention of the Darkness.

hearing of weird and strange things/inhuman things through music with other normal things that don't make sense to be added together because they don't relate. among the various incarnations that the Doctor and Master, and other timelords/ladies have - i seem lately to have gotten specific incarnations of them popping out to me

i feel like i know who i am, who i could be, what its seeming to be like i could be or definitely am, but at the same time, i am feeling such a loss of identity yet because of the definite and possibilities and the possibilities that seem more likely than the rest, i feel like i know more than i ever did because you know more as time passes obviously

but i want to get this out so i can finally tell you and you can read it all and respond to each accordingly. i hope so badly im not alone in this. there is more to tell but i am so freaked out at how strong and intense of a flaring feeling i am getting of it

like i am literally in transit, in a half way point phase where i am neither here or there. Like a waiting period at the point of change but that thing to fully ram into it and have it skyball has just not ha[need yet

like im home here on Earth but i am not really HOME

I also have heard weird noises and seen split second weird flashes in the sky as well as the sound of aircraft but when i look in the sky, even among the clouds or lack therof any , I see nothing so maybe there is the ability aboard the c raft or whatever causing those noises to be able to hide themselves so no one can see them

people, even strangers staring at me in ways like there is something off or something drawing them to me and they are waiting for something

there are times, which isnt a new feeling but seems to have increased lately as well, is how when i speak, its not of someone my age for the most part and i will speak as if i am not from here like I'm waiting for something, or on the move , or wanting to go home. I even have said to my family that my home is among the stars but they brush it off as silly or me being a weirdo dork.

dont even get me started on how strong the feeling is , is that whenever i see my gallifreyan fob watch necklace and knowing its a fake, my mind goes to the real one which gives me the feeling of not wanting the fake and feeling a want, need and urgency to find the real one

my sister had even asked me , if i was happy here: i said yes because i am but in this weird, strange, unexplainable / ufo/aliens / paranormal, etc. life, i feel a happiness and a sense of peace and home i don't elsewhere. You can have a home like feeling for more than one place obviously

its not like i dont love, care for and appreciate everything in this normal life as well as strange life because i do equally, I'm just acknowledging what i think, know and feel about this life too

and im never going to lie about what i feel because the truth cant be shied away from no matter how hard one tries; trying to make sense of who or what i am makes sense as to why i and even you can answer some questions but not all bc we might have what could be any memories back but if any of those are even memories then we obviously don't have all back

Make of this what you will.

[beej-hunnicutt]

Okayyy, I grabbed a bunch of this year's (plus one from December, technically two) actually like "finished drawings" and ramble abt the good, the bad, and the ugly. I just watched an artists tier their art. So yeah lol maybe I'm in the mood to ramble abt mine lol. Below the cut because...so many pictures lol.

Like, don't get me wrong, I loooooove this Frances drawing, but like. It's kinda just there. Like I feel good when I see it. But I WANT IT TO FEEL MORE AAAAA. Like I'm sure abt almost all of these, I just wish I had given it an atmosphere. I actually think this has a cute light palette it actually kinda works. But I wish I had actual lighting in it <3. Where is the vibe and scene?! I think I should go old photograph. Which is what I wanted to do, but I have no idea how. I still plan on expanding out this drawing, maybe changing it slightly, so hopefully, I will do that better!! I also kinda put this Andy with it. Because I feel kinda the same abt it. I think both lack shadows too, which goes with lack of environment. But I think the soft feel of Andy's is nice! I'm glad I colored it. And actually think I like how undefined the background it on this one. It does something for me! Oh didn't mean it, but love the contrast of the complimentary book cover! Didn't intend that, just picked a book I enjoy and think Andy would enjoy. But like that affect.

Despite really feeling like Andy is still not mixed with the background, I actually really like this one! I think toneally it has a vibe. And it's just like a portrait so I cannot complain too much!

I really enjoy this Mary and Frank piece! I love the colors and like how its kinda painterly but still heavily influenced by the sketch and it can still be seen. I like that I attempted more usage of different hues, not sticking to the main color. Like Mary's sleeve? LOVE THAT. Same with the sweater detail on Frank! I put the Kik one with it because for a quick sketch turned painting I think it is good. I like the vibe. I think I should either heavily fix it or redo it. I think if I keep going at it, I can make it a piece I am really proud of!

Okay, admittedly, I put these together because they're kinda the same size but lol. Andy; tried something new, think I heavily failed. But I DO like the colors and like I tried texture, though you can tell I didn't know what to do with it lol. The Lincoln, this piece is rlly old, AND IT WAS BADDDD. I think the half assed fixed version is 1000% better. It's by no means perfect. I rEALLY like the shadow of his head on the pillow. But aha, just wish there was more. But overall not terrible! I like it for what it is. And has a special place for being like my first Lincoln piece that wasn't just his fatigues one. :")

LOVE THE VIBE, I like Grayscale, like the intense shadow. I think the shadows on him could be a but nicer of course. And I do think his hair was kinda poorly done but oh well. I am not the biggest fan of his face? It's not bad, but I think I have done better John faces. I do know; I detailed his face in color and I think I like that better lol.

Lincoln, like, I like the face and coloring of that but it's just so meh. It's a figure like I always do. I like the coloring a lot more when I went back and added deeper shadows. But idk. It's okay </3. And oh!! I group a different Lincoln picture with this one, it has no background but the shadows on his uniform are SO good. It made me loooovve the drawing. And is still a fave. It is what inspired me to add deeper shadows here.

And I've never shared this version of this John drawing. It's a shaving cream prank. Dear God. Help me. I love how John's body turned out. I think his face is nice; its okay. I think I sucked at again giving him a shadow. I couldn't commit to the main shadow and I think it just kinda sucked all life from it. With the Lincoln drawing I don't like the background. With the John one I am torn. I think I should have detailed the ground more? Maybe? Idk. These two, Frank by the water and Andy reading, were all close together and done in January, and they all kinda have the same bckgrnd theme. Idk how I feel abt that choice. For the guys' anyways.

Actually seeing all of these were nice! Because I actually do like nearly all of these pieces! And I feel nervous but very inspired to keep trying to motivate myself to finally take that final step. And maybe try to play into that for the entire piece, not just adding it at the end...and not adding it. I rlly want to try to get a bit more creative too, like interesting things not just person standing there. But idk.

If you read all of this. Omg thank you sorry for rambling your ear off!!! 🫂💗

TASK #1: AN EEYORE SHEPARD PLAYLIST !

track one: nothing new, taylor swift ft. phoebe bridges

how long will it be cute? all this crying in my room when you can’t blame it on my youth and roll your eyes with affection and my cheeks are growing tired from turning red and faking smiles are we only biding time until i lose your attention?

track two: you don’t know me, katelyn tarver

i'm so over all this bad luck hearing one more “keep your head up” is it ever gonna change? so let me just give up, so let me just let go if this isn’t good for me, well, i don’t wanna know

track three: tin man, miranda lambert

hey there mr. tin man, you don’t know how lucky you are you shouldn’t spend your whole life wishing for something bound to fall apart every time you’re feeling empty, better thank your lucky stars if you ever felt one breaking, you’d never want a heart

track four: god must hate me, catie turner

i can’t hold myself responsible, so i blame the metaphysical if jesus died for all our sins, he left one behind, the body i’m in same hands that made the moon and stars got carpal tunnel and forgot some parts i don’t know what i believe but it’s easier to think he made a mistake with me

track five: into the ocean, blue october

i thought of just your face, relaxed and floated into space i wanna swim away but don’t know how sometimes it feels just like i’m falling in the ocean let the waves up take me down

track six: she used to be mine, sara bareilles

she’s imperfect, but she tries, she is good, but she lies she is hard on herself, she is broken and won’t ask for help she is messy, but she's kind, she is lonely most of the time she is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie she is gone, but she used to be mine

track seven: night bus, lucy rose

you see trouble in her eyes you’ve noticed but only realized it’s not fading however you hard try ‘cause it’s built in her for her life

track eight: stay in the dark, the band perry

lately, things been getting so crazy been feeling like my heart hates me it’s racing, i just wanna stay in the dark turn off the lights, come hold me tight

track nine: i can’t breathe, bea miller

will somebody get me a hammer? wanna break all the clocks and the mirrors and go back to a time that was different a time when i didn’t feel like there was something missing now my body and my mind are so distant don’t know how to escape from this prison

track ten: echo, jason walker

i’m out on the edge and i’m screaming my name like a fool at the top of my lungs sometimes when i close my eyes i pretend i’m alright but it’s never enough

track eleven: seven, taylor swift

please picture me in the trees, i hit my peak at seven feet in the swing over the creek i was too scared to jump in but i, i was high in the sky, with pennsylvania under me are there still beautiful things?

track twelve: paper crown, alec benjamin

when all she needs, and all she wants, when all she finds when all she is and ever was, is compromised  ‘cause there’s no one to love her when you build your walls too high and there’s no one to love you when you trap yourself inside

track thirteen: walk through walls, katie herzig

before you walk through walls, you will leave all this behind before you walk through walls, you look it in the eye before you walk through walls, you will learn to say goodbye if you let your guard down long enough to try

track fourteen: like blood like honey, holly brook

you want to catch your breath, you want to get out but as you surface you don’t really know how how to live upon the solid ground sometimes it’s just easier to let yourself drown

Echoes of a Forgotten Past

An old birthday card I stumbled upon From what I'd guess, the late 90's The contents of which contained My Grandma's, err, my Nanny's handwriting

You see, she always wrote in cursive A knack she mastered in school A relic of a forgotten time One that I love and think is so cool

Seeing this, reading this, I pause Not realizing I'm smiling so much Happiness encompassing my body And soul equally as such

Because, endless memories They start to flood on through Both precious and detailed and Things I didn't remember that I knew

Like this one time my brother and I Were playing inside and didn't quite listen Broke my Nanny's big green frog A considerably bad decision

Because we took a paddling to our asses But we found that quite amusing Until we had to eat chili afterwards A different pain in the ass in the bathroom later we were using

I also remember how every Sunday My Nanny watched me play soccer I wasn't the best out there But that would never seem to stop her

From cheering me on because If I scored she'd give me a dollar And even if I didn't With pride she'd still hoot and holler

I recall days she'd pick me up From school at 3:35 right on the dot At Los Tules out on Gail Ave. with A silver Ford Taurus in the parking lot

And it wasn't just my Nanny but Sometimes my grandpa would be waiting In his old Orange Toyota Radio on, sitting there contemplating

Grandpa was always quiet But I loved to pick his brain He had endless knowledge That I eagerly wanted to gain

He used to build things In his garage with such joy He had a million different tools Those things were his toys

Speaking of which, the middle room Grandpa's collector's room, amazing Thousands of hot wheels cars Lined the walls, it was dazing

My Grandpa collected Hot Wheels For who knows whatever the reason His notepad had details for every car That he could find for every season

But perhaps the truest collectible Was my Grandpa's love for sports He loved his Lakers, Dodgers and Raiders But watched any game of sorts

I distinctly remember watching the Lakers 3 peat with my Grandpa in '02 I hadn't seen such joy from him ever But that's when I knew

My Grandpa was sharing not just His love for sports but his passion That seemed to awake in me From within and in a timely fashion

Fast forward to today I lament the days Grandpa would call Randomly but we'd talk about the Raiders And would end with baseball

And the conversations Would always last 45 minutes to an hour Those meant everything to me To relive those I'd give anything in my power

Nanny and Grandpa did so much for us growing up Boasted us with pride never to be hushed They were firm with discipline and Instilled so many values with love and with trust

Nanny and Grandpa were super heroes I loved and adored them to infinity And as time has aged them I love them even deeper from within me

As I will always continue to do so But time, it refrains to be kind Because it takes without asking And starts to affect the mind

And it's not like their memories Were once here but now gone I don't know when they last remembered Or if that time has been too long

But I do need to pay a visit It's been quite some time They live so close So there's no excuse of mine

I need to tell them I appreciate them More now while they are still here Who knows how long we have Because death comes for all I fear

I wish I was more appreciative And less expectant as a kid I need to tell Nanny and Grandpa I'm endlessly thankful for all that they did

I never truly considered what the word Nostalgia could have possibly meant It's the feeling of love and value With all of the time that was spent

It's that picture you see And instantly you arrive At the scene of a memory And instantly you're alive

And in that moment Life comes grinding to a halt You relish in that treasure You had stored in a vault

And part of you is happy And part of you is sad It's melancholy personified But for that you are glad

And this reroutes me Back to my final thoughts As the camera pans out of frame To share what I've brought

It's a shame we don't care more For those who are living Yet only after death Are our thoughts worth giving

We memorialize the dead Instead of when alive And when that becomes too late We're searching through archives

Time spent foraging and collecting Echoes of a forgotten past To create the perfect memorial We hope and believe to last
