#but theyll never forget each other

[redux-iterum]

Smudge is always there whenever Fireheart visits. Does he spend every night watching the forest? It speaks to your talent as a writer and worldbuilder that I'm so concerned for the lonely kittypets of the Houses.

He's in his house most of the time, and sleeps large parts of the day and evening away, but when night comes, he's always got an ear open for his old friend's voice. Even if he wanted to, and even if he doesn't get to hear that call very often, he just can't drop the habit.

[ultimateloserboy]

duck and red guy are not good people.

ive probably said this a million times already but friendly reminder that they’re incredibly grey. they ruin their own lives just as much as the house does it for them, not to mention how theyre responsible for most of the turmoil in yellows life. duck especially loves with his entire heart, but that doesnt stop him from being a piece of shit.

a lot of you watch the series with this idea that the main three are poor innocent babies trapped and helpless when actually, if there was anywhere else to go (which its implied there isnt) red and duck would never fuckin get there because theyre too selfish and stupid to make it.

becky and joe said themselves in a QnA that yellow made it up the stairs alone because red and duck are just too cynical and selfish to ever make it anywhere. the second yellow started heading down the stairs it was over for him, because red and duck will NEVER listen. they want answers but are too stubborn to ever receive them. The house could be unlocked completely and theyd keep themselves there

Not to mention how they treat each other. they either enable each others shitty behavior, or give up on trying to stop each other. red starts to get onto duck for his behavior towards yellow, but then he joins in to make fun of him multiple times. because he doesnt actually care that much, and that apathy can make him cruel

i think a lot of you forget that even as they are normally, even on the regular floor— not even being bigger boys— they DROWNED THEIR FUCKING CAT!!!!!!!!

and they did it together, is what gets me. theyre codependent. theyre all the other really has, the only other adult really to talk to. they completely disagree on everything, having the opposite worldview of each other which causes them to argue constantly— but theyre all the other has. the only one as shitty as themself. they get stuck with each other in the bigger rooms. growing grotesque together, ruining themselves TOGETHER. they get farther apart. they speak to each other less. they torture smaller things for entertainment rather than talking with each other— but theyre still stuck together. glued to each others hip until the world stops spinning, but always being too cowardly and stubborn to be kind to one another and let themselves be happy together.

even when they reach clarity, or they hit an arc that makes them better people— theyll just forget tomorrow, and go right back to being terrible.

theyre not helpless. sure theyre victims, but not perfect ones— and they themselves have victims of their own

and dont even get me started on the mischaracterization of red in this fandom. YES hes just as bad as duck!!! hes not a fucking baby hes a grown ass man!!! he says the same shit as duck all of the time and yall see it differently cuz his voice is nicer to hear or he says it quieter. and may i add— he can be socially awkward and still an asshole. he can be neurodivergent and still an asshole. it doesnt cancel out, you dont have to pick one or the other.

yall take everything interesting out of these characters so you can make them sexymen but to me the sexiest part is the nuance of the character. duck and red are assholes but that doesnt make them unlikable, the show itself proves that. theyre incredibly likeable but still do terrible shit, and yall forget BECAUSE of how likeable they are.

this isnt meant to be some post to make you think theyre bad people that you should hate because thats bullshit. theyre not good people but theyre not overall bad people either. their actions are terrible but at the end of the day they can and have been better, even if only temporarily. there is a part of them that could easily fit into a happy family— a part of them that can heal each other instead of hurt each other. but unfortunately thats the part thats always erased

(little edit i dont know if they explicitly drowned their cat BUT its implied they did kill it. sorry two-three years of piecing my own shit together i lose which parts ive determined myself. dont wanna sit here and just say my own theories as fact tho, so the drowning specifically was just my guess! sorry abt that chat i hope u still trust me with canon cries)

Can I ask from this ask game for BingYuan (all of the questions)? Thanks 🧁

https://www.tumblr.com/comingfromastatechampionasshole/119898100247?source=share

Send me a ship and a number and I'll tell you

1. Which one is the better cook

Binghe 100%. Shen Yuan was a spoiled rich kid and after Binghe fell into the abyss he just stopped eating... there's no way he knows how to toast bread

2. What their love letters look like

Love letters imply they're ever far enough to need to send each other letters... at most they'll be long texts Binghe sends rambling about how much he wuvs his hubby and would rather be at home than his stupid job as King 🙄 and Shen Yuan blushes and replies "Focus on work Binghe..." Then he waits for Binghe to get home and whine that sy was so cold to him so he can apologize with smooches

3. Which one outlives the other, and how they cope

I mean . We know how this goes. Corpse cuddles and trying to raise the dead

4.What they do on date night

Since Binghe is a hopeless romantic who never thought anyone would love him, I think he'd want to do stereotypically romantic and basic dates. They go to an ice rink and hold hands while they skate and he's vibrating with joy because he's living out his hallmark fantasies. Shen Yuan indulges him sooo much.. too much. He got a cold but it was worth it seeing Binghe's happy face

5. How many kids they'll have

I'm gonna say... two. One is through breeding kink gone too far, second is them seeing an orphan boy who reminds them so much of Binghe as a child and deciding they have to adopt him immediately

6. How they decorated their bedroom

Elegant and slightly minimalist. Shen Yuan has all his merch hidden away in his childhood bedroom at his parents house because he's thin faced... they stay over one night and Shen Yuan completely forgets his old room is a haven of his weeb shit and is mortified when Binghe sees his limited edition poster of a hunky male character naked holding a sword.

7 Which one is the worse driver

Shen Yuan by far... same reason as his cooking, he probably had a driver take him everywhere until Binghe showed up

8. What they argue about

9. Which one swears more

Shen Yuan by a landslide. Binghe is a very intelligent and well read man and while the same holds true for Shen Yuan, if he goes 2 minutes without calling Airplane a dumfuck authour it's worrying

10. What TV shows they watch together, and which ones they hide from the other

Theyll watch anything together, even stuff they dont like so Binghe can listen to him rant about how much it sucks. Shen Yuan hides PIDW and all his other porn-for-plot interests but Binghe knows about them.

11. What their first impression was of each other

Shen Yuan impression of Binghe: beautiful and strong man

Binghe’s first impression of Shen Yuan: beautiful and kind man

(This never changes)

12. What they do for their anniversary

Regrets of Chunshan role-playing baby!!

13. Which makes a bigger deal of birthdays

Hmm. I'm gonna have to say both. Binghe cooks a feast and Shen Yuan dotes on him and fulfills any wish Binghe has.

14. What nicknames they call each other

Binghe: yuan-gege or laoshi

Shen Yuan: Bingmei (in his head only, he's too embarrassed to say it)

15. What they would change about each

If you ask them, Shen Yuan would say Binghe should have a smaller pillar... this is a lie. He can't go back to normal after getting used to Binghe stretching him so wide

[tofugargoyle]

ok ok actual unpopular opinion I'm prepared to get shippers in my inbox sending me death threats for this but as much as I adore pricefield (prefer amberprice but chloe has TWO hands) I actually don't hate that they're broken up in DE. like it's devastating of course but I think it makes sense for both characters and I certainly don't think it undermines any of what they have or what happened in the original LIS, like they clearly still have that love for each other but their lives and mental states just weren't compatible at that point in their lives, and it doesn't mean theyll never reconnect in a significant way in the future, whether that be romantically or platonically. All the people saying 'this makes no sense for who they are as characters!!' are forgetting that the characters they're familiar with are 18yo girls, these women are pushing 30!! they've changed!! are you the same person you were 10 years ago?? not to mention people's reactions to trauma and how they process it is very different and often unpredictable. and honestly even if all this weren't the case, the people writing off the game entirely just because their ship isn't 'canon' anymore need to re-evaluate whether they ever appreciated the story as a whole at all or were only in it for the shipping, in which case fanfic is your friend my dude! despite what a lot of people think, max and Chloe's romance not being endgame doesn't invalidate the importance of the original story at all. if you don't wanna play it I'm not gonna say you have to obviously but acting like it's ruined because of the pricefield break up is kinda ridiculous imho. anyway.

more papercut and curitis gang hcs?

i love indexslice and citrus group❤️

•when pony gets rlly sick while curlys locked up, he asks the gang for curly like hes a sick victorian child asking to see the sun one last time

•i feel like curly has more pocket money that the curtis gang does, so sometimes he comes over and to not get kicked out hes like “order something,,,,ill pay😏😏”, he also does it to flex in front of pony

•pony never knows whats going on w the shepard gang yet curly always knows whats happening w the curtis gang, pony doesnt even tell him, curly just says something and ponys thinking “who the hell told u this”

•considering the curtis house phone doesnt allow for much privacy, when curly calls, pony can always tell if theyre listening in bc he notices that they get a pretty silent

•pony and curly have done that thing where ur play fighting but someone actually gets rlly hurt, and u cant even hide it from the adults, u just gotta snitch on urself😭😭

•for school awards ponys gets, during the ceremony u can hear the gang, but u can also hear curly, and hes half cheering for pony, half yelling just to yell, sometimes his friends join in, so now TWO gangs r yelling for pony and ponys just embarrassed considering running away

•darry already has to tell pony not to smoke in his room, so when curlys ALSO over, he opens the door and its like a fucking oven in there, like forgetting about the smoking bit, r yall trynna kys??? open the window a little more or somethin😭

•darry would b so pissed to hear that theres been moments where curlys paid off some of the gang from sticking w them while theyre hanging out, BUT IF IT HELPS they dont 100% leave

•i like to think that if curly ever heard these socs talking about pony, he would go to the gang and thats the ONLY time theyll rlly ever listen to curly

•pony sometimes forgets the notes him and curly send to each other back and forth in class, and darry does laundry usually so he finds them and let me tell u, the way he talks to curly vs the gang is so different, darrys never heard some of these words leave ponys lips and he doesnt want to, pony came home w the note on the table and he knew he was done for

not to send the billionth ask about hlvrv but are doc and g-man intentionally narrative foils. man who would do literally anything for his family VS man who believes having a family makes you weak. like. they ARE narrative foils but was it on purpose or a happy accident. also every day i thank you for making sleepless a forzen when i feel like anyone else would've made him a benrey for Frenrey. idk it adds a little pizazz that he's the singular forzen in hlvrv and not a benrey even if him being a benrey would probably change nothing plot-wise

YESSSS and i love it. the question of "was it intentional" is a little here and there because the more i look back at hlvrv the more i forget what i was thinking of in the moment and the more i only have my notes to go off. where episode 1 was kinda me going "UHHHHHHH" and panicking looking at the building blocks that ive laid out desperately trying to smash them together. doc definitely wasnt crafted with the idea that he would have this traitor narrative in mind, and certainly he wasnt created hand in hand with gvrv. his creation was me in the notes app going "uh i need two more gordons. what would be cool. A MAD SCIENTIST MAYBE?" and things kinda fell into place from there.

i think as the live askblog stuff went on i definitely did find my footing with that though, especially as i was going in with the looming shadow of like. onceler-au-ification behind me. i wanted the science teams to play a part in them for sure. and for that connection, that bond, to play a part, and i guess as the story went on doc and freemans fates got more and more intertwined, as doc has this sort of selfish love of her family where she will stop at NOTHING to save them, and the admins whose selfish love of freeman ends up trapping all the other gordons and dangling false hope in front of them, but as the story goes on, as the gordons make these choices to reach out to each other and fight for their happy ending, thats how you see doc and the admins' loves grow into something more deeper and mature. compared to gvrv who chose to love people only as tools

ALSO YEA I LOVE SLEEPLESS. im like 90% sure zer creation was also just me scheming in the notes app like "ooooh theyll NEVER expect this one!" but also i noticed hlvrv at large had a very large forzen-shaped gap so i was like "fuck it". i agree i think making sleepless a benrey would have been tacky

What do you think Sec's and Dark's relationship would be like? Especially at the start, because from Orange's perspective it's something like "You killed my friends, but also you're my brother--". Similar question with Orange and Victim. I just wonder how they acted with each other at first

oh my goodness i love this questionnnnn :)

personally, i think it would be a very complicated relationship. the hollowheads in my headcanon are all very tense and awkward with each other at first but they all eventually learn how to open up to one another and learn how to genuinely care for each other (such as sibling relationships goes), but that doesnt mean they are free from holding some sort of grudge and burden; especially for second and victim.

at first, second and dark would be very indifferent and tolerant when it came to each other, but the grudge is still there. second making passive-aggressive remarks about dark within their ear shot, and dark being sarcastic and even guilt tripping second for what they did. i agree that sec sees dark as someone who did nothing but terrorize them- even killed their friends at some point, and dark only remembering that sec killed them so they always keep their defenses up. but seeing how sec can be gracious when it came to forgiving past villains, theyll eventually manage to get past all of dark's actions, but never forget them. dark is the fun older sibling for second and that counts for something i guess.

for second and victim, well, of course at the start they were also tense considering the events that happened, but i think sec would learn to forgive victim faster than with dark since they werent really her primary concern during the events of wanted and the box. sure, she bunkered sec and the others down at first but that was just to eliminate who would get in the way of her plans. sure, she hunted the animator down and did everything to get back at him, but those feelings were between her and the animator, so second doesnt really have a say on that either. i think that despite everything, second eventually grows to care for their older sister because they would understand where those actions came from. dare i say second is actually the closest to victim. they like her a lot, theyre the true two peas in a pod for me.

(i could write a lot about hollowhead sibling relationship/dynamic but i would be digressing from the question sjdfnvkdsjnvds)

heavy breathing and sweating thinking of bepo chained up with tears in his eyes getting interrogated .whimpering and trying not to cry but hes a big baby and he hates pain and the whole time he just thinks of how he has to make law proud he has to get through it for captain....... post reunion law seeing all bepos injuries from it and giving him the most tender reverent massage and sexing in the world to reassure him hes Here and no one will hurt him anymore. im ill

ill draw chained up bepo at some point for SURE

but for now - imagining bepo surprising even himself that he is doing a good job enduring pain and that reacting with steel determination came so naturally - surprised but only because its the first time they ended up in a situation like that! stupid alliance with too many unknown variables - if it was up to their captain taking the lead this would never happen....but for his honor theyll endure.

i love how bepo is only cute around law and in any other situation hes very much a proper pirate....he had some choice words to say to his captors i have no doubt

in my head you know that law is so cool and bepo is so undemanding - law will be so calm about taking care of bepo, not visibly upset (he doesnt want to worry bepo, especially then when bepo is safe with him) just Peak Rational tending calmly to bepos wounds. he is weighting in his options of how to praise him...law is very grateful that him just being Strong (and cool) is what brings bepo happiness and comfort so he doesnt even have to go out of his way to do anything for him...they just work when they are together

its nuts that hawkins probably saw the MOST of laws reaction (penshachi too) - when they all were in the immediate danger (but especially bepo) after the fact (and even when he comes out of his cell) law is collected.

they are so precious about each other they are both thinking "im ashamed i ended up in the situation and made you worry/im ashamed i couldnt prevent it and you got hurt, you are my responsibility" so instead of saying these things out loud - they both know how the other is feeling - they do their best to move on asap.

and so he will be when treating bepo and caressing him, say he is checking if anything is broken (he has Scan for that) and smiles so soft and loving when bepo giggles after a ticklish spot gets stroked...

Bepo melting in his hands as usual (as usual!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️) its the most wonderful thing in the world and makes them both forget that anything bad ever happened

edit: im dumb and chronologically law couldnt be the one to treat him but im too sleepy and lazy to rewrite it so just ignore that inconsistency thanks

[luckybitch1]

speaking of my water sign thing about keeping sad memories close the kuromi design does have a story i got it after my best friend ended our friendship for good after a really crazy situation like really crazy lesbian drama it was like living a manhwa bro you dont even want to know. i dont regret getting it because ill always miss her even though its for the best and i dont want to forget how important she was to me. ive never met a sweeter soul its really unfortunate we couldnt get past our issues at the end because it was so stupid to let that separate us after years being sisters to each other

i can never accept how in life sometimes theres no redemption. i think so deeply about how things happen and change everything forever. you just lose control sometimes no matter how hard you tried, half the time for the dumbest reasons. you can just lose people and things and never get them back. i guess thats why i like collecting tattoos in the first place my terrible judgement aside lol. its like at least something is permanent and they might blur or you could cover them up, add more, whatever but theyll never actually be gone. even if you get laser you'll have a vague impression in your skin forever. theres so few things permanent in my life and this ink will be with me until im gone. or i lose a whole arm or something jeez

i wonder if she ever thinks back on our friendship and wishes it didnt have to end too or if its still all heartbreak and betrayal. at the time i couldnt stand to read it but ill never forget the letter she wrote me, so sentimental, about how she couldnt imagine us not being friends. me neither leiko

Perfect 10 liners ep 3 (spoilers)

I swear to god i thought i made this post like 3 days ago wtf.

first note, even though i have not posted anything re: the first two episodes, I will say that i currently like the show. I am fully treating this show as three shows packed up in one show. (I'm thinking skam where the seasons were following the same people but different main characters each season except this show does not have seasons)

I originally was not sure if i wanted to watch this show, aside from force and book I dont really know much about the other two ships and even still i havent really watched many force book shows fully so i was fully convinced i wouldnt like the show

Theres still a chance i wont like the show but right now the first two episodes have been funny. yeah I know, im a sucker for silly goofy sound effects and cuts and this show is doing it. its also (i think) the same director as we are and I LOVED we are so we'll see!

I think it is interesting that Arc likes Arm and is actually going for it, unlike most shows where theyll beat around the bush around this, I cant wait for Arc to "find out" that Arm was the one who posted that photo of him because i am fully convinced he already knows and is so ready to mess with Arm when he "finds out" (though i hope hes not too mean about this)

ANYWAY, ONTO THE THIRD EPISODE!

not me saying that i was interested in the arm arc storyline only for the show to IMMEDIATELY switch off of their story line sigh

nvm i spoke too soon, back to arrmarc! NOT PUN AND JET KNOWING LOL THATS SO CUTE

also not the new car being a product placement

i also find it lowkey INSANE that this man got you into an accident, said he would never hurt you again, and then all of a sudden youre so fine with it. Like not even a little bit of "you know what, give me like a week before i get into your car" i know this is probably for us to see and assume that Arm already likes Arc even though he won't admit it but like… girl this man is being lowkey (highkey) rude af and mean to you and i get that youre idk,,, pushing it off because hes your senior but like i do not CARE how senior someone is to me and how much i like someone, if they got me into an accident, im probably not going in their car for a while.

NOT THE AGGRSSIVE TYPING "dont forget to apply the medicine :p"

I also found this restaurant part so out of the blue? I know hes all like "well you said youre getting to know me now" but like bro you are in a sweaty ass jersey right now like go to either home or a street stall where there isnt an expectation on being dressed fancy.

fish on the balcony? 😭

poor po being stuck between two lovesick boys (bro is literally me)

if Arc thinks that this heart rate is "racing" bro would probably think i was dying if he heard my resting heart rate.

oh 😃 thats one way to end an episode. bro really said, yeah im gonna give my gear to you (because we will be dating) Im lowkey getting sotus vibes from their relationship at least right now. Like one mean guy who is the older senior and also has the explicit (kinda) role of taking care of the junior in terms of academics and school life and then a stubborn junior and also the giving of the gear (which ive heard is like a cultural think kinda so i cant really see that and be like OMG

ITS SOTUS!!!) but uh (cultural may not be the word im looking for but i feel like in canadian eng programs (dont wanna be to general and say all canadian university programs) we dont really have something like this, where you get something from the school and give it to the person you are dating as like a cute thing, maybe a canadian can correct me if im wrong tho) the confidence on this man i wish i had even half of that

FINAL THOUGHTS

once again another engineering show making me (an engineering student) feel lonely and sad about my own life 💀

i feel like i dont have any insight on this episode (not that i ever have) but maybe as the show goes on and i get used to making these posts again i will

that being said, I am sick and gosh darn tired of this fucking trope (?) where you can be mean to someone as a way of "flirting" with the other person. I mean even po and sand were all like "if I didnt know any better i'd think hes flirting with you" like maybe its just difference in cultures but if a friend came up to me and talked about someone in the way that Arm was talking about Arc in the first two episodes i would stongly encourage that friend to stay the fuck away from that person, like why are we making it okay again to bully people as a way of flirting with them (i guess you could argue that in this case its less bullying and more like teasing (which whatever) but my point still stands, i wish that shows would do this trope less or at the very least have some genuine consequences to this bad behaviour. and NO getting Arm hurt in the car accident is not a consequence to Arc for his bad behaviour, like sure he felt guilty about it but obviously Arm had no grudges held against him for that (i'm talking i want genuine serious like… idk how to put it. and this show may not be the best example ( again, maybe this is more teasing than it is bullying) but if someone treated me as bad as some main characters treat their love interest they would not be getting a chance from me (to which you might argue, "well if you like that person before then even if theyre mean to you they would get a chance" but thats often not the case in these shows, like main character 1 is mean for no fucking reason and main character 2 is like i hate you…. wait a minute I LOVE YOU!!! and there is no real consequence to main character 1s actions, they have no real reason to change)) but anyway thats neither here nor their as i am currently liking this show but given the time that the show is taking place (2 main couples are already established) i am wondering i… idk i forgot what i was gonna say

[ultimateloserboy]

sorry dhmis fandom i havent been around to ramble as much because i was off getting mad bitches and touching grass. but im back and ready to get really sappy and emotional and compare my life to old man yaoi. so anyway. do you ever think about how lonely the main three are despite being right next to each other. how they really do love each other but they dont trust each other nor do they know how to properly treat each other. like they try their best but their best isnt enough. they try to teach themselves how to love but its made them selfish. growing up in shitass nowhere alabama, traumatized as fuck, this is how friendships have sometimes felt for me. nothing is serious, everything is ignored, everything is funny no matter what. our words may sting each other but we stay silent and fake a laugh. and then those friendships would fade into weird gay bromances. and yeah those middleschool ass homo-friendships might be shitty but theres something so nice about the moments in the dark, when you realize you like looking at each other. when you realize that maybe you should be kinder. maybe you should trust them more. maybe if you hold their hand long enough and close your eyes tight enough you wont have to go back to pretending to be cruel. and it might notve worked back in middle school, we may have crashed and burned, but i still look back fondly on those moments in the dark. and now that im older, and ive learned to be kinder, and ive met others whove learned the same, im finally with someone that likes looking at me even when the lights are on. im surrounded by people whove lived and learned. like sonic adventure two am i right guys. but seriously. ive said this before and ill say it again. dont hug me im scared makes my fucked up life feel represented, but it also gives me hope. those gayass puppets may forever be trapped in toxic yaoi, but i am not, we as real people are not. theyll learn how to love and forget in an hour, their efforts are hopeless, but ours are not. GO OUT AND KISS YOUR HOMIES TODAY. BE KIND. LOVE YOURSELF AND LOVE EACH OTHER. HOLD THEIR HAND IN THE DARK AND IN THE LIGHT. THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE DESERVE MORE THAN A MINUTE OF AFFECTION. YOU DESERVE MORE THAN A MINUTE OF AFFECTION. WE ARE HUMAN AND WEVE MADE MISTAKES, AND WELL MAKE THEM AGAIN, BUT WE CAN CHANGE, WE CAN GROW, THEIR LIFE WILL NEVER CHANGE BUT OURS WILL. THEY WILL NEVER DIE BUT WE WILL. YOU ARE NOT A BAD PERSON FOR THE MISTAKES YOUVE MADE, BUT YOU SHOULD FIX THEM WHILE YOU CAN, BETTER YOURSELF WHILE YOU CAN. DONT SPEND YOUR LIFE DRIFTING AND WAITING FOR A FRIDGE SCENE TO HAPPEN. MAKE EVERY DAY YOUR FRIDGE SCENE. AMEN

more rinkittys from the brilliant minds of bean and sana at ungodly hours

mostly kitty lore

more on rinkitty au

if formatted weirdly its because we literally played rinky tennis and popcorned everything in discord @sanaimissyou ily

NIKU KITTEN LORE

niku was at the cat cafe/adoption place because she was found with parents nowhere to be found hungry and small very very small (kinda like someone we know-) and so she knows what being alone is like and one day when she sees two people sit in and everyone else swarms one of the guys while the other is just. all alone and she doesn't like leaving people alone and for some reason she feels the need to go up to him so she breaks from the crowd and goes over on her little kitten paws and mewls , rubs her head against his knee "hi i'll be your friend" and when rinne sees her he cries

When Niki makes him leave her he tells her “I’ll come back for you” and she believes him and he visits her every now and then so she doesn’t forget him but she doesn’t really register what’s happening every time since she’s so small

Cat melodrama

It’s like 3 AM and there’s meowing in the living room and they think it’s just Niku with the zoomies but no she’s talking to a whole other cat

whole other cat is an alley cat that just passed by one day and saw her and Instantly fell in love and keeps trying to talk with her but Niku is having None of it

He keeps coming by and she eventually just warms up to him because he is. Kind of cute and very charming

the rizz is working

She saves some of her food for him sometimes ‘cause she learned to share food from her dad (Niki) 

niki: niku why arent you finishing your food 

niku: pacing around in front of the window, looking for other cat

Other cat comes by sometimes during the day when Rinne and Niki are out and other cat (she just calls him Nya-kun now ‘cause he doesn’t really have a name) offers to take her on a little city adventure since she doesn’t go out besides a small neighborhood area when Rinne and niki take her on walks

he takes her to his favorite spots and shows her so many things she has never seen and each place they stop at she falls a little more in love (nya-kun is already so in love he cant fall even more hes at full love)

He drops her off at home and she’s just so happy and purring and everything and good kitty things and Rinne and Niki have no idea why she’s like this but they can’t really complain

he comes by again and takes her out and it goes well at first but then they get into a fight with some other alley cats that does not go well; niku is okay and a little shaken but nya-kun is hurt and bleeding

She brings him back to the apartment and kinda tears some things and drawers apart looking for the first aid kit that she’s seen Rinne and Niki use and she’s trying her best to patch him up but Nya-kun’s sitting there thinking and kinda regretting everything ‘cause she got put in danger

nya~kun: i love her. I Love her. But I'm just an alley cat. she has a loving home, she doesn't belong out there. not on the streets. not with me. she's beautiful and everything ive ever dreamed of but i have to let her go. 

niku panicking while trying to patch him up : nya-kun please stay my dads will help i dont know what to do but theyll know ! where are you going? theyll help you, i know they will!

Nya-kun says this isn’t gonna work out for them because she’s just not a street cat, it’s not safe for her out there and she should stay here, where she has a loving home and people who love her, and he thanks her for spending time with him and putting up with him and he leaves And Rinne and Niki come home like “Niku what the fuck happened you’ve never done this” ‘cause everything’s still a mess and she’s just sitting there 

for the next few days she's so, so, sad at first she thinks he'll come by but he doesn't and doesn't the next day and doesn't the day after that or after that or after that but she still waits by the window with her food unfinished waiting for him and rinne and niki notice and are so worried because their baby is hurting and they have no idea why

In all her alone time she realizes that she had no say in his decision to leave her alone, and that it isn’t fair ‘cause he made the decision for her when she didn’t want it in the first place so she makes her own choice to go look for him A là “It’s my life I get to choose” Niki-style

so one day when she gets the confidence and niki and rinne are out at work she nudges the window open and jumps out and runs to every place she can remember him taking her , his fav spot by the pachinko, his fav place to take shelter in, etc, until she finds herself back in the same alley and face to face with the alley cats that had attacked them before. the alley cats recognize her and seeing that her companion isnt with her move to attack her for revenge because though he got hurt, he left a. number on them

Nya-kun jumps in at the last second and fights them off and he’s like “What are you doing here? You shouldn’t be here you don’t belong here!” (This is all in meows by the way) And Niku’s like “Even if I don’t belong here, you belong with me!” She can’t stand the thought of him fighting for his life while she’s just living comfy so she finally begs him to come home with her ‘cause

 “Dad and dad will love you!!” 

“How do you know that!?”

 “Because I love you!!”

he's so absolutely speechless and starts sobbing (in meowspeak) and is like i love you but im just a street cat, and niku is like if you love me you will come home with me please and nya-kun FINALLY finally breaks down and moves forward slightly closes his eyes touches his nose to her's and gives out a breathless "okay"(meow) and she takes him home and they slip in through the window and sit in the living room cuddled up together waiting for her dads to come home

Anyways yeah that’s how they got the second cat (Rinne and Niki have no idea any of this happened btw [time period unspecified]) and Nya-kun is now called Rinnya-kun but Niku still calls him Nya-kun

and theyre still in love

another thing about niku being so tiny when she was at the cafe is that she doesn’t remember the one other friend she had at the cat cafe that was a tiny orange cat who ran away

that tiny cat was her only friend but he hated being in the cafe and ran away and she barely remembers anything but only knows she felt comfortable in that short time and for some reason the tall red haired guy reminded her of that cat

when the entire B plot ends up being more emotionally charged than the main plot

This entire thing is literally just Rinnya meeting his in-laws

and falling in love with he kitty wife

All cat dialogue is just meows with subtitles

“How do you know that!?” “Because I love you!!” 

"Meow meow meow meow meoww?!" "Miaou miao mewl MIAOUW"

Imagine being someone walking by on the street like “what the hell is goin on over there”

Also Rinne and Niki have no idea ANY of this happened

MISC 

Rinnya has a scar from that first fight since he left and didn’t let it heal properly and whenever Niki’s petting him he’s like “man where’d you get this scar from buddy”

niku takes time to lick it gently everytime they r cuddling. to show that she is thankful 4 him everyday and loves him so much

Licks are the kitty equivalent of kisses (which Rinne is. Still constantly shaming him for) but nose touches are way more personal for them

man literally went thru hell for her he deserves to be a slut (saved her life)

Rinnya: What the hell is a marriage is why is there no kissing before it, what is a “wife” Niku: I dunno, but dad calls dad his wife so I guess that means someone you just really really love a lot 

Rinnya: I suppose you’re my wife then

niku: i guess i am~

niki: rinne-kun why are you slutshaming the cat again

rinne: u dont understand niki they are breaking the sanctity of marriage

niki: rinne-kun. they're cats. they dont understand the concept of marriage 

rinne: 

niki:. rinne-kun. they literally have CHILDREN 

rinne: 

niki: (sighs) will it make you happier if we throw them a mini ceremony? ill call kazehaya-kun 

rinne: NO they are not marrying before us 

Niki:

 niki: but then they'll be still doing that thing you dont like 

rinne: 

rinne: niki never said no to us eventually marrying :) 

niki: 

niki: why do i love a man so stupid

Niki: Hey did you give Niku too many treats again, he looks like he’s getting rounder Rinnya: ……does dad not know you’re a girl

Rinne: ……OH uhhhhh Niki I forgot to tell you something—

rinnya: oh god i knew he was stupid (rinne) i didnt think it could get worse

they meet 14/17 (cat years)

11 months and 1 year and 3 months respectively

all the big stuff happens (when rinnya finally comes to live with her) 18/21 (cat years)

1 year and 4 months and 1 year and 8 months respectively

5 human month slowburn / 4 cat years slowburn

It takes place from the tail end of spring throughout the summer

8/03 when he finally lives with them

Rinnya is petty enough to call Niki dad and Rinne just Rinne

When they get married it’s “dad and his husband”

CW ANIMAL DEATH

the first time rinnya calls rinne dad is the last meow he says, a small "thanks dad"

Niku’s last little meows

To niki: stay happy with Dad, Dad

To Rinne: It’ll be okay, Dad

To Rinnya: I love you.

sad kitties cuz i like being in pain i guess

in their third year saiko and aren start doing weekly bets, as encouraged by kaidou who got tired of getting caught in the middle of their weird charged obsession with each other (literally, as he sits between them in class) and really wanted them to take that shit somewhere else after he got in trouble w teachers for being their profanities-filled notes-passing middle man so many times the school called his mom. its really simple. they just find something to compete against each other at, and the winner gets to ask one thing of the loser. rinse and repeat. despite saiko being way less of an idiot than aren, and knowing him well enough to come up with challenges skewed in his favor (he still has The File on him from when he tailored part of his house to arens specific taste), their win-lose count is pretty much even (aren is just a beast). the Bets are a source of mild entertainment for the rest of the class, because while they dont particularly care about the challenges themselves, what they make each other do generally ends up being pretty funny to watch. but they dont always use their winning request to annoy each other. most of the time they do, of course (the class will never forget the week of dread they felt as they watched aren just barely keep it together while having to address saiko as 'saiko-sama'), but sometimes theyll instead use it as an opportunity to get to know each other better, not that theyre admitting that out loud. saiko makes aren accompany him to a fancy event hes too bored to attend alone. aren makes saiko hang out with him at an arcade downtown. saikos curiosity gets the better of him and he makes aren cook lunch for him for a whole week (and immediately regrets dismissing his chef but still eats every bento hes given). aren makes saiko come up with an entire road trip route to try out the bikes saiko got for him and never used. friendship blossoms.

Ahem Ahem. Welcome everyone to yet another cowede peptalk about themselves cos... lets face it i have an issue. (part 1)

LET THIS BE CLEAR THAT THIS BLOG ALSO SERVE TO ME AS A GODAMN PRIVATE JOURNAL THAT ISNT PRIVATE BECAUSE I HAVE A VALIDATION AND SELF CONFIDANCE ISSUE. are we good ? 99% of the people who could read this already skipped ? fine. lets start on a good news! @makoto-naegi-stud-and-friends (who has a dumb discord name NO I WILL NEVER STOP SAYING IT (unless you like, tell me that you dont like this running gag, and if so i'll stop imediately bud)) and @plaindangan (da plain! they are so cool) but i just got out FINNALY of a very toxic relation on the cowede side of my life! that had been going on for what... 3 years now ? basically that person is russian (the cliches are stable) and has psychological issue (probably dementia, but like, i don't have dementia and i forget stuff constantly and before i begin sounding like an horrible person i swear that russian had dementia precisely when they needed too seemingly, just now i remembered i must kobeni @plaindangan will get it) and the thing is... they asked for a LOT and I mean a LOT, and when they actually put some godamn effort they were great, and of course at first in our relation they did put ton of effort, were proactive in ideas and tried different super cool stuff, like actually talking in code when playing a robot character, they also gave me lots of cool ideas and experimentations about erp that i very much enjoyed and brought to other places with... mostly failure than success ? but hey. So whats the issue ? picture this. you start a rp, and you have to play 8 different character in one action. then in the very next action you must make, you must replay them all but instantly corrupted and now cucking their boyfriends and slobering other that person cock. At some point they ask you to add 4 more character because "its not enough". do you get a please ? a thank you ? nope. ah maybe a matching response in term of words and quality ? nope. the person (lets call them X from now on, should have do it earlier but the problem is I write like i talk and i talk like a very very bad comedian) will start talking in the first person, completely not only forget but factually they dont care about what the rp is about, setting, characters, even the characters the other play, its just them and the others, but also the answers are super short, almost on the level of a "i fuck them, continue" . Oh at the very least you can say theyll get bored of it once they have it and we can move on to something else, maybe be back to creative teasefull stuff since they are actually great at this writing wise. NOPE, theyll freeze the rp for weeks, if you try to ask them if we could continue they say "i dont feel like it" and whenever too much time pass surprisingly its your fault now. so you do what ? you create another rp start with X, hoping this time maybe we'll get each other better. it shouldnt be too much of a problem for me ? those who know me conscerning rp know that I kinda have... an obsession with beginings ? like i actively want to do long term, but after some time my brain freeze and i dont know what to write anymore.. and of course my stupid brain get other ideas about other characters, that i pitch to my partner (once again @plaindangan and especially @makoto-naegi-stud-and-friends the goats suffered from this) and we end up starting this other pitch. (part 1 over)

for the ship thing!!! saltpep and whichever questions you want :]

IM SO SORRY THIS HAS BEEN ROTTING IN MY INBOX as repentance how about all of them c:

(prefacing this by saying were assuming that theyre living their cool domestic life in hotel oj and also salt FINALLY got over her crush on him)

big spoon/little spoon:

salt is the big spoon and pepper is the little spoon because pepper likes to be taken care of :)

favorite non-sexual activity:

these bitches LOOOOVE dolling each other up "oh hey lemme do you nails so i can hold your hand" "oh hey lemme fix up your hair so i can imagine myself ruining it when i kiss you later" "oh hey lemme do your makeup so i can stare at your beautiful face" gayasses

who uses all the hot water:

salt for sure she totally gets lost in her head while pepper takes quick showers

most trivial thing they fight over:

oh these gals would totally fight over stuff like "whos the hottest gal on too hot to handle" they love each other but have VERY different tastes when it comes to people on tv

who does most of the cleaning:

SALT!!!!! she has her own systems and likes keeping things her way and pepper doesnt mind stepping back and letting her get everything in order

what has a season pass on their dvr/who controls the netflix queue:

pepper pays for it but salt controls what they watch

who calls up the super/landlord when the heat’s not working:

pepper for sure she'll send paper a quick text about it

who steals the blankets:

pepper she likes the snuggle :)

who leaves their stuff around:

pepper completely on accident she just forgets stuff in places but salt loves organizing anyways so it doesnt really matter

who remembers to buy the milk

NEITHER!!! they rely on paper and oj for the groceries

who remembers anniversaries:

PEPPER!!!!! shes the type of gal that celebrates two week anniversaries and all that and salt cant keep up she'll celebrate with her c:

Who cooks normally?

neither 🔥🔥🔥 they doordash or make paper do it

How often do they fight?

they'll play-squabble like once every few days but like a big fight? girl

What do they do when they’re away from each other?

they miss each other something FIERCE and theyll spam text each other

Nicknames for each other?

of course we already have pepper calling salt "salty-salt" and salt calling pepper "darling" but also because pepper has been calling salt "salty-salt" for so long she really likes it when salt calls her "pep" or some variation of that it makes her feel more special :)

Who is more likely to pay for dinner?

NEITHER 🔥🔥🔥🔥 if anything pepper asks paper for some cash and they go get waffle house

What would they get each other for gifts?

the normal lesbian gifts yknow makeup, lego flowers, scented candles, chappell roan vinyls, cute earrings, etc

Who kissed who first?

pepper but it was an accident so they both pretended to forget about it but neither ever did. salt did the first REAL kiss

Who made the first move?

salt HAD to because pepper was too scared

Who remembers things?

salt says she does and she sets reminders on her phone but she always misses the reminders so pepper is the one that ACTUALLY remembers

Who started the relationship?

pepper was hardcore yuri-ing out over salt first but man she could NEVER make the first move so their friends had to nudge salt to do it

Who cusses more?

pepper for sure. salt honestly probably uses tiktok terms more than actual swear words 😭

What would they do if the other was hurt?

salt would start freaking out and probably start crying but pepper would start swinging IMMEDIATELY and maybe kill someone

Does Jon still have feelings for bug? Like even though him and Nancy are together does he still have these lingering thoughts and/or feelings? Will they ever come back up or will they just stay down? Bug has had alot more time to deal with her feelings with Jonathan while he hasn't and he went straight from bug to Nancy, so does he still occasionally have those thoughts of his love for bug despite being with Nancy? Sorry if this is an over asked question my brain gets fogged around breakups in stories.

Also Steve trying for a whole summer to get bug to be his girlfriend is so spot on it hurts. Bugs clueless and Steve is just bad at reading signals. But think about the sweetness of them finally getting together, how happy they'll be. Steve getting roped in as the unofficial " dad" of the group. I fully understand why bugs would wanna date him after the battle of star Court. Steve Harrington basically sacrificed himself to save your little brother's life, in that stupidly sexy sailor costume. Legit endured torture to keep you safe. Bug would absolutely make a hello sailor joke and Steve would just be so over it.

no worries at all for the jon and bug question !! i havent necessarily closed their book yet, still have a few minor plans ;)

for jon, he will always kinda love bug, but the circumstances and how he came to find nancy overshadowed this. he doesnt still necessarily love bug in a way that implies theyll come together again, but for the both of them theyre each others first love. you never forget your first love.

i will explore possible lingering thoughts/feelings season 4 (the duffer bros kinda force me to but also i love the concept so i wont complain) because yes !!! jon did jump right in with nancy and then he moved across the country and became a stoner. hes going through it lmao

AND STEVE !!! i knew immediately he would be a mess trying to make bug his gf and it will be the silliest thing ever hes so pathetic <3
