#but yeh I am grateful

[avampyone]

I forgot to post here, but a gorgeous com of Hemlocke from @fukkatsu-sumi !

I'd hit a really low point in my life about a year ago with a lot of heavy RL issues. It wasn't easy but glad to be in a better and more content place now, so, I treated myself - I've always loved their art. I definitely recommend them!

How H can’t say the word ‘dick’ so he says peen peen/penis…whereas y/n says the word dick all the time…she would definitely tease him about this every time and laugh out loud whenever he says the P word!!!!😂😂😂😂

Potty Mouth

A/N: this just turned into a "yn cursing/being herself on stage for 5 minutes straight" video compilation

GENRE: 1d!yn, married!ynrry

SINCE 2010 masterlist

"Hiya, love. What's yeh name? Katrina? Katrina, your sign says my boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend." YN presses her tongue against the inside of her cheek and she squints her eyes in contemplation as the stadium full of fans let out a "oof!"

"Are yeh still with him? Yes. Ok. Huh? You don't know what to do. And you want my advice. Okay, Katrina here it is," She leans forward, resting a hand on her knee to help get her point across. "Fookin' dump his ass. And that so-called best friend of yours."

...

"Dublin! How are you lads feeling tonight--oh shit!" YN's arms flail out beside her as she almost trips over a stuffed bear that was thrown out on the catwalk. She continues her walk with a laugh, looking over her shoulder at the item in question.

"Damn, I almost ate shit for a second. Anyways..."

...

When YN sings Only Angel, she passes by a fan who holds up a sign that reads YN, let me have your man!

She gives the fan a playful curl of her lip and flips them off before she walks off laughing with a shake of her head.

...

"And I just want to say how incredibly grateful I am for everyone here tonight-"

YN's eyebrows shoot up when the crowd begins to scream out of nowhere. She takes out one of her in-ears to try to hear if she missed something. It isn't until she looks behind herself to the massive screens on stage when it finally clicks. A woman in the midst of the sea of fans shamelessly holds a sign above her head that reads MOMMY!

YN looks back to the audience again, putting a hand above her eyes to try to spot the source. Once she makes contact with the fan, she casually says, "I'm right here, baby. Did y'need something?"

...

"Yeah, I would love to do a shot with you."

As soon as the words leave her mouth, the stadium full of fans erupts in excited screams. YN crouches down at the edge of the stage and gets passed the plastic cup the fan brought.

"Huh? 'What do you mean how do we do this?'" She chuckles at the bashful girl at the barricade. "You just shoot it back, love. Is this your first time?"

The entire stadium lets out a collective 'awww' when the massive screens on stage display how the girl nods with a mix of excitement and nervousness written all over her face.

"Wha's yeh name, beautiful? Lilly? Lyla? Lyla, okay. Shot virgin, huh? Don't worry Lyla, I'm a gentle lover." YN throws her a wink and she doesn't think the fan's face can get any redder. She raises her cup, the fan following suit, "Salud!"

...

"Well, that's fookin' huge," YN says, blinking in disbelief when a fan in the crowd shows her the big 1D logo tattooed on his arm. But she's quickly leaning back with a smile tugging on her lips when the fans begin to scream out from the double meaning of her words.

"Alright, gets your mind out of the gutters. Yeh nasties!"

...

"Ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm welcome to our very special guest for tonight. He's an indie artist, probably never heard of him before, very underground artist. Please give it up for my husband, Mister Harry Edward Styles!"

The stadium goes absolutely crazy, screaming at the top of their lungs before she could even finish the small introduction. Harry walks out onto the stage with a wave of his hand as he holds his microphone with the other. He gives his wife her favorite dimpled smile of his before he pulls her in for a hug.

He blows the audience a kiss before putting a hand over his heart as he mouths the words 'thank you so much' as they continue to go crazy. He even lets out a bashful laugh as they continue to scream their heads off.

"Okay. Alright, alright," YN playfully scolds. "Calm yeh fookin' tits."

...

While YN has a finger to her lips the other tries to get the crowd to settle down and be as silent as possible. Somewhere in the massive sea of fans, a girl screams out I fucking love you, YN!

"I love you, too but shut up."

...

"I just have one question, Norway." The audience can't see what the little item she picked up from the floor is, but they erupt when the concert cameras show her holding up a condom packet in the air. "Who the fook threw this? I'm a married woman, leave me alone!"

"Whot? It's for me to give to Harry?" She turns the packet around in her hand to read the back. "No, it's too small for him anyways," She says before tossing it back to the crowd.

Before she can get out another word, YN can't hold back her laughter when the fans scream out at her comment. She puts her hands on her knees as her eyes squeeze close with a scrunch of her nose. Eventually, it becomes too much for her as she drops to her knees and lies down on the stage floor holding her stomach.

...

"San Jose, I have a confession that I need to share with all of you. Literally since the show started, I've been needing to take a massive fookin' piss."

...

As soon as she finished singing her song and the lights went back to normal, YN quickly makes her way down to the side of the stage to read a fan's sign that caught her attention earlier.

"Hello! Hi. So you have a fun sign. It says Your husband called my boyfriend an 'absolute penis' the other night."

The two girls in question get displayed on the massive screens behind YN. They hold up their phones by their heads as they record the interaction.

"Well, let me just clarify a couple of things before yeh start to spread these false accusations," YN laughs, putting a hand up as she begins her little rant. She holds up her index finger, "First of all, I was at that show and my husband didn't directly call yeh boyfriend a 'penis,' okay? So calm yehself. Second of all, the only reason he even alluded to calling your man a 'penis' and didn't call him...the other word, was because our mums were there."

"Everyone, please make some noise for me mum, my mother-in-law, and Harry who they're all here tonight!" She happily points to the section at the corner of the massive pit full of fans reserved for family and friends. In the center of a team of security guards, her family can be seen happily waving back.

Anne blows kisses to her daughter-in-law, alternating her hands with each one. Penny jumps up and down, both of her arms straight up in the air as she waves her hands excitedly. And her husband sticks his fingers in the corners of his mouth as he blows out a whistle loud enough to be heard from her spot on the massive stage.

"Which brings me to me third and final point: this is my show yeh? So then I just have one simple question to ask you, lovely lady. Is yeh boyfriend being an absolute dick?" A sly smirk makes its way onto YN's lips when the crowd goes wild.

"No? Good. Well, if he ever is, let me know and I'll kick his ass meself."

y/ndevils00 HAPPY REGULAR SEASON!!!

WELCOME BACK TO THE SPECIAL EDITION: JACK HUGHES SHOW!

OUR MIGHTY FINE DEVILS WON 4-3 AGAINST THE MICHIGAN BIRDS!

tonight, my beloved, apparent bad boy, got TWO goals, but more importantly TWO penalties!! i love when he does good things, but i love when he does bad things even more!! even if the first penalty WAS a bit of a chintzy call, i still loved seeing him locked up 🥰

my favorite autumn tree got his first goal of the season tonight, and i couldn’t be prouder! you go, ginger snap!

my sweet bratt also got a penalty for interference, which makes no sense to me, and obviously not to him either- but alas, we persevered!

and last, but certainly not least, UNCLE HAULA-HOOP GOT AN EMPTY NET GOAL, WHICH SECURED OUR WIN!! THANK YOU, HAULA BACK GAL!

p.s. i’m sorry to Ellen, who i accidentally ditched to get a picture of her son in the bad boy box, and who also might’ve heard me call him a naughty slut— she laughed, but i think i saw a part of her die inside

Alright, everybody! Since its the time of the year again, here's the post of 2024 in which, I wanna thank the moots who made this year amazing!

Right off, the bat (and in no particular order) :

@dormarunt @puduhegepa @marqenobi @misalpav and @maraudersbitchesassemble we didn't talk much this year but for whatever time we did, I am so glad to have talked with you all!

Hoping to do so and more next year! 😁

To @orgasming-caterpillar, my dearest, you never fail to amaze me with your strength and amuse me with your antics!

@prettykittytanjiro @shinchansbitch @randomx123 @jeahreading @im-on-crack-send-help I am so glad to have known you this year and I hope to know you more in the coming year

@aru-loves-krishnaxarjuna @tothemoonandbacklove you guys are absolute sweeties. No arguments here.

@akidev @budugu @voidsteffy I love you guys so so much! Y'all radiate such warm energy and aura its difficult to stay away from you all! 😭

@ae-dil-ae-saudaai (raman yeh kya url hai 😭) @meow-merchant-mf @milady-motherfucker Pijon (derogatory) (someone tell me his url) for being the bestest boys here and for being such lovely guys!

@desigurlie and @rhysaka the work you guys are doing for hindublr is fan fucking tastic and takes a lot of balls to do it! My salute to you both (and also to all the other members who actively work for this!)

(and now PARTICULARLY in the descending order with the best being at last, cause yeah its ME bitch)

@bandarrrrr for being the best bro ever! Love ya tots! 🫶🏽 And I am so so glad to got to know you this year! Hoping to do so next year as well!

@manujanolavu my wifey, love of my life, sweetheart, sweetieboo....you are the sunshine on a dark day, the rainbow at the end of the hailstorm and overall someone who has a good heart!

@h0bg0blin-meat my basketcase, unhinged tumblr twin, last year I said I wanted to know you better and now idk if i regret it or not 😂

But in all seriousness, you are the friend to be held onto and I KNOW I can come to you to harrass you as well as whine my heart out!

@lavandulacosmos you know whenever a problem arises and you are in need of good vibes or just plain safety, the first place we think of is home. You have become that home for me. I dont need to talk to you everyday but I know if anything happens, you always have something for me to make it better. Whether its a quip that'll make me scowl or a heartfelt advice that would make things better, you always have smth for me.

Bestest for the finale, @wedgeantill you deserved this position like SO LONG back but well, here you are!

I dont know how the fuck we became friends but I am very glad that we did and I am so so grateful for you that I have no words to describe it. Even though we squabble more than half the time and give empty threats to each other, I know theres affection behind it and I am so happy to just see you, even tho you drive me nuts.

Its been 3 years since we met but with you, time feels like its slowed down. From lcdp gifs to personal stories, we have come a long way and I PRAY I get to thank you again next year for being with me and being there for me. Love you so much (/PLAT 😂)

And whoever is not mentioned here and sees this post, I thank you too for making this year lovely for me!

An Epilogue (and a Prologue) P2

P1 | P3

“Now, you listen here, young man,” Richie told Vyvyan an hour or so later. “If some stuck up, toffee nosed little bastard gives you any gip, you send them ‘round to us. We’ll sort them out, won’t we, Eddie?”

“That’s right. We’ll taste test the toffee for you – see if there’s any licqueur in it,” Eddie said.

Richie nodded. “That’s right. We’ll taste test the- What?”

They had Vyvyan sat on the sofa as the two of them – well, Richie, mostly – hustled and bustled between the kitchen and drawing room, dispensing whatever pearls of wisdom popped into their heads. For two blokes who’d never been to university, Vyvyan thought they had an awful lot to say on the matter.

“I’m talking about the children of Lords and Ladies, Edward,” Richie said with an eyeroll.

Eddie frowned. “You what?”

“It’s alright, Uncle Richie,” Vyvyan interjected, unable to suppress a smirk. “I don’t think they’ll be many of that lot at Scumbag College.”

He and Eddie grinned the family grin. Richie finally ceased his hustling and bustling and sat down beside Vyvyan, his eyes miles away, his mind clearly running. He started gnawing on one of his knuckles before his head snapped up again.

“Oh! Oh!” He gesticulated madly at Eddie. “Eddie, get the thing!”

“The thing?” Vyvyan repeated.

“Yeah, what thing?” Eddie asked.

Richie pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. “The thing, Eddie. The very important, just-to-show-how-much-we-love-you, supposed-to-be-for-Christmas thing!”

Recognition flickered in Eddie’s eyes. “Oh! That thing!”

He hurried out of the room. Seconds later, Vyvyan heard his boots clunking on the staircase and then the floor above. He scrunched his face up and scrutinised Richie.

“You got me a Christmas present in September?”

He wasn’t sure whether to be grateful or suspicious. It wasn’t as if Richie, Eddie, or even Vyvyan, if he was being honest, were fantastic present buyers. To be fair, it was hard to be on a budget of 50p.

Richie laughed and wiped a greasy strand of hair from his forehead. “July, actually. There was a strange Glaswegian fellow at the carnival this year. Yes, couldn’t understand a word he was saying … although the fact Eddie was smashing his face in with a bottle at the time didn’t exactly help.” Vyvyan snorted at this. Richie continued, “Anyway, we found the thing in his coat pocket afterwards. It’s fortunate we can give it to you as a going away present now, really – I’m not sure the little bastard would’ve survived another four months in Eddie’s room.”

Vyvyan’s face lit up. “The thing is a living thing?”

There was a crash upstairs, and then the muffled sound of Eddie swearing. Now Vyvyan was very interested indeed.

“Oh, bollocks!” Richie mimed zipping his lips in frustration. “Me and my mouth. You didn’t hear anything!” He got up and marched to the doorway. “Eddie, for goodness sake, will you hurry up!?”

Moments later, thunder sounded on the stairs and Eddie burst back into the kitchen, panting like he’d just gone three rounds in a boxing ring. Tiny, freshly red scratch marks adorned his right cheek.

“Git!” Eddie shouted at his jacket pocket. He straightened himself up and walked back over to Vyvyan. “I’m afraid he’s not the nicest little thing on the planet, Vyvy, but you know how to handle yourself. Merry, uh, starting university very soon day?”

He rummaged around in his top pocket and produced what looked like a brown clump of something rotten. Intrigued, Vyvyan rose to his feet. On closer inspection, he noticed the brown clump was vibrating and squealing in Eddie’s fist. Whatever it was, it was furious. Vyvyan’s mouth formed a small ‘o’.

“What is it?” he asked softly – or as softly as Vyvyan Basterd was capable of, anyhow.

“It’s a guinea pig,” Eddie said.

“Am no bloody guinea pig, yeh daft egg head!” a surprisingly deep Glaswegian voice answered back. “Get your wee rodents right, why don’t yeh! I’m a hamster!”

Eddie’s jaw tensed – and then tensed a bit more when the hamster bit down on his thumb. He grimaced.

“You sure you want him? Like I said, not the nicest little thing…”

Vyvyan nodded vigorously. “A talking hamster? You bet your life I do! That’s the most completely brilliant thing I’ve ever seen!”

He held his hands out and waited eagerly as Eddie shook his own hand over them, trying to dislodge the creature’s teeth. From over in the kitchen, he noticed Richie wincing in sympathy as he cleared up the mugs, though it seemed he was content staying as far away the thing as possible. Vyvyan could imagine he’d told Eddie he was much too sensitive to handle feral beasts. But Vyvyan knew he was made of stronger stuff.

At last, the hamster landed with an “umph!” on Vyvyan’s palms. Eddie breathed out slowly and cradled his bleeding right hand. The hamster itself shuffled around a little on the new pale skin it found itself upon, grunting under its breath. Vyvyan watched, utterly enraptured, until it finally turned to just the right angle and he spotted its eyes.

They were intelligent. Unnaturally so. The two of them stared at one another for a moment, and the world halted.

“What you looking at, you little wimp?” the hamster asked him.

The world started turning again.

“I don’t know. Shall we find out?” Vyvyan asked back.

The hamster shuffled once more. “I bite, yeh know, pally.”

Vyvyan laughed. “That’s alright – so do I.”

He eyed the hamster menacingly and grinned – and was impressed when it held its ground. What was this? Was this understanding? Had Vyvyan found common ground… with a hamster?

Back in the kitchen, where Eddie was running his crimson hand under the cold tap, Vyvyan could overhear Richie conducting a not-so-well-hushed inquisition:

“How long has that thing been talking for?” he asked.

Eddie found himself a piece of old kitchen roll to dry his hand. “I don’t know, since not long after it was born, I suppose?”

“You mean it’s been talking the entire time we’ve had it, and you didn’t even tell me!”

“Well, I thought you might have noticed!”

“How many hamsters do you know that speak the Queen’s English, Edward!?”

Before things could escalate, Vyvyan cleared his throat and walked over to them. He was still grinning. No one had seen how he’d done it, but the hamster was safely secured in the front pocket of his denim jacket.

“I’m calling him Special Patrol Group – SPG for short,” Vyvyan said. “We’ve got a deal: I pierce his forehead like mine, and he’ll play ball. Isn’t that right, SPG?”

“Aye, aye,” SPG said. “But you better make me look good, laddie.”

Eddie flexed his injured hand. “Well, I can’t deny the name fits. If I’d known I could get away with driving a nail through your head, I’d have done it weeks ago, mate!”

“Tough luck, baldy,” SPG said.

And then he actually chortled. Eddie sucked in a breath as he glowered at the hamster. A vein in his forehead started pulsing. Clearly sensing some kind of surreal brawl between man and rodent was about to break out, Richie put a hand on Eddie’s arm to calm him down.

“In all seriousness, though,” Vyvyan said. He swallowed and looked both his uncles straight in their eyes before continuing, “Thank you. For all of it.”

He could hear his heart beating in his ears. How SPG wasn’t being juddered back and forth against his chest was truly beyond him.

Richie teared up. “Oh, Vyvyan…” He got out one of his rotten handkerchiefs and blew his nose. “You know the flat is always open to you, young man – day or night! Come rain or shine!”

Eddie rolled his eyes at his dramatics.

“There’s no need to thank us, skip. It’s what we’re here for,” he told Vyvyan seriously. “Besides, we’re just a couple of sad old bastards. We haven’t always got it right – we haven’t usually got it right, come to mention it.”

Richie swatted his arm.

“So? At least you tried,” Vyvyan said. “You’re better bastards than most, Uncle Eddie. And I’ll be back soon to visit. Promise.”

Eddie smiled at him. His uninjured hand jutted forwards, as if he was going to pat Vyvyan’s head but then remembered the tri-hawk – and the fact he was no longer six – and stopped himself. His arm lingered between them for a moment, then bowed back to Eddie’s side. He inclined his head awkwardly. Now it was Richie who rolled his eyes.

“Dear oh dear, do I have to instigate everything?” he asked, and shoved Eddie towards Vyvyan.

Somehow, the two of them caught one another in the doorway between the kitchen and the hall – which was lucky, since Richie’s shove had evidently come as a shock for Eddie, who stumbled into the hug, and wasn’t something Vyvyan had been expecting either. He heard SPG complaining from his sandwiched position in the middle, but he didn’t care. The little shit could suffer it.

To Vyvyan’s surprise, instinct took over, and he crushed Eddie in a death grip – like he really was six again, and Eddie was the grown-up person who could save him from whatever trouble might befall him. His throat swelled with something hard when he felt Eddie grip him back just as tightly. Somewhere to the right, Richie hummed in smug satisfaction.

“What a bunch o’ wimps,” SPG muttered from inside Vyvyan’s pocket.

~*~

Edward Hitler and Richard Richard watched from the window as their nephew drove off in his new yellow Ford Anglia. They stood in silence as the car reached the end of Mafeking Parade, turned a corner, and disappeared.

An almost foreign tranquillity had descended over the flat in the last few minutes. Richie was dabbing at his eyes with his handkerchief when he noticed Eddie remove his glasses to wipe something suspiciously wet from his own eyes. This time, Richie let it pass uncommented upon.

“Our Vyvyan, off to university,” he said instead, calmer than he’d been all afternoon.

“He really is gonna become a doctor,” Eddie said. He was smiling. His face was aching, he was smiling so much. “He’s the first one in the family to leave Hammersmith, as far as I know, try to make something of himself…”

“And he’ll be alright, won’t he, Eddie?” Richie left the window and wandered back into the kitchen to unfasten his apron. Whatever fannying around he’d been doing in there before Vyvyan’s arrival didn’t seem important now. “I mean, I know he’s an adult now and this is very exciting, obviously, but you do think he’s making the right decision, don’t you? You are happy about this?”

Eddie chuckled to himself, bathing in the lonely strip of afternoon sunlight the window let into the drawing room. He was still staring out at the world.

“Richie, I’m over the bloody moon. And he can’t make any worse decisions than we have, can he?” Then Eddie sighed and turned away from the window. “Or Pauline…”

Richie crept up behind him and wrapped his arms around his middle, bringing his chin to rest on Eddie’s shoulder. Neither of them spoke for a moment. They both watched the world outside. Hammersmith roared on beneath them: casual, ordinary, full of laughter, and full of tears. Eventually, Eddie turned his head and kissed Richie’s greasy hairline.

“I love you, Rich. I hope you know that,” he said.

Richie gave him a squeeze. “Of course I do, Eddie.” He kissed his shoulder tenderly for several seconds. “I love you too.”

Eddie nodded to himself, distracted but content. Richie’s face popped up again by the crook of Eddie’s neck. His former soulfulness had morphed into a pervy leer. He trailed his hands down to Eddie’s hips and spun him around gently, so they were facing.

“Now, young man, how about we take you to bed so I can tend to your injuries?” he suggested.

Eddie smirked at him. “My terrible, possibly life-threatening, hamster-inflicted injuries, you mean?”

“Mmm, the very same,” Richie purred.

They kissed, and Eddie pulled the curtain across the window, blocking out Hammersmith altogether. Richie raised an eyebrow and brought one of his hands upwards to trace circles over Eddie’s nipples.

“Feeling frisky, are we?” he asked.

“I just don’t feel like the stairs,” Eddie said. “Not in my current, weakened state.”

He smiled and let Richie guide him to the sofa, undo his fly, kneel in front of him… and the rest, of course, was just between the two of them. From here to eternity.

Can I have some Kylian fluff where reader rests her feet on his lap, he knows she loves having her feet tickled so he always runs his fingers up and down her soles, tickling her arches and toes and always cooing at her tootsies and shes just always grateful for his touch pleaseee💗

Home alone

Summary:where the reader and Kylian are just enjoying each other's company

"Kylian" I shout through as I enter the house after a long day at work

"Cherie?" He responds from the other room

"Where are you?"

"Living room"

I walk to the living room and find him watching TV

"Ça va"

"Ça va ma cherie" he says pecking my lips

"How was you day" I ask sitting on the sofa

"Boring, just training and eating, then showering and then i came back home and made dinner"

"That doesn't really sound boring"

"Well it was, any way how was your day" he asks

"Tiring, my boss is an ass, that's for sure" I say and rest my feet on his lap

"What happened this time?

He starts removing my heels and starts rubbing my feet

"What are you doing"

"Trying to relax you"

"Weird, but ok"

"So, what happened" he asks and starts ticking my feet

" Kylian, stop ticking my feet" I say trying to stop laughing

"Shhhhh, I'm trying to relax you, tell me what your boss did"

"It's not even important, I don't wanna talk about her when I'm with you"

"Ok babe only if you say so, but are you sure you're ok"

"Yeah, just had a very stressful day, where are the kids?"

"Lizzy is having a sleepover at Roxy's house and Enzo is having a sleepover at Fernando's house"

"Was, that today?"

"Yeah, but don't worry I took care of everything"

"Merci beaucoup, mon Amour"

"De rien, ma cherie"

"That means, we have the house to ourselves"

"Yip"

"So, what do you want to do"

"I'm not gonna lie, I'm too tired to do anything naughty right now"

"Same"

"Let's just watch some movies"

"Ok, I'll go get my food and then we can find something"

"Nah uh Mrs. Mbappe, sit yourself down, I'm taking care of you for the rest of the night"

"Ok fine"

He walks to the kitchen, warms the food up and brings it to me

"Thank you"

"You're welcome"

He walks goes upstairs and walks our room

"Where are you going?" I ask

"I'll be back" he says

After some time he comes back with some of his clothes

"Here, I got you something to change into"

"Thank you"

"Here let me help you"

"I can do it myself"

"I know but I wanna help"

He starts helping strip down until I'm in my underwear and bra

"Can you help with my bra" I ask

"Yeah"

I then turn around

I feel him trace my healed scars on my back and his warm fingers trace them as I have my eyes closed feeling every single touch

"I can't believe, all this happened to you" he says

"Yeh, but it's all in the past now, ok"

"Ok "

He unclasps by bra and puts a shirt on me then a hoodie then his joggers that I have to fold because of how big they are

We eventually find a movie to watch, but after eating my food, I fall asleep cuddling Kylian

Kylian's POV

She's asleep now, and she looks peaceful

As I watch my wife sleep while cuddling me, I think about all the trama and abuse she went through only because she was born into the wrong family, the many times they hurt her and she'd still get up every time only to take their crap again

The amount of therapy she went to was a lot, flip a lot is an understatement

After some time I realize I'm crying, I try to be quiet,but seems unsuccessful as she sees my red eyes and tearful eyes

She looks at me and cups my cheek while wiping my tears

"Stop, ok you saved me from that horrid place, if it wasn't for you I don't know where I'd be , it's because of your love and our children that I healed and opened my eyes, Thank you"

"Don't thank me Amour, I was just protecting you, like you'd done for me before"

She looks at me and hugs me like this is our last hug

She then pulls back and says

"Merde mais je t'aime Kylian"

"Je t'aime aussi ma cherie, tes mon vie"

She kisses me and I deepen it and she pulls away and lays he head on my chest and I think of how lucky I am to have this woman in my life

Hello

Let me tell you one thing before saying the main thing. I finally gathered some guts after 5 months and thought of writing this to you. Actually, I am scared of you 🥹 (yeh Simran didi ko Pata hai). I am one of Simran didi's devotees here.

I really like your blog and the way you write. And yk you were the first person I followed here. You were the first desi who came on my feed. What I love about you is your and Simran didi's relationship. I literally simp over you guys 🥹 (*putting kala tika* kisi ki nazar na lage). You guys look so cute together (never saw u guys irl but I am pretty sure u do). Whenever I feel sad, I scroll down your blog and see you two lovebirds and trust me, nothing makes me happier than that. So that's what all I had to say, stay happy and take care of yourself (and Simran didi ofc) and live your life the way you want <3

Ayushi, I know you simmu's favorite right? I remember you wrote about her in your diary though idk if she told you this or not but she posted it on her ig story and kept talking about it in my dm that day and she also told me lot of things about you how you guys started talking and everything. anyways she was really happy so thank you very much for making my girl smile honestly I'm grateful to you.

Am I scary? I think I'm quite friendly? No? That aside her mutuals are my mutuals so feel free to interact with me

At the end, thank you very much for your kind words, Glad to know that you like our pair. Being one of your mutuals makes me happy and take care of her here on my behalf as I'm not active here. You can dm me anytime if you need any kind of help. Take care.🌻

very weird thing to experience being mixed and queer,

so many queer spaces and people online have no idea what to do when faced with a queer black person, there's little comprehension of how one's ethnicity and the concept of race refocus blackness (and everything, really) and how queerness refocuses blackness ~__~;;

native queerness is just about a misunderstood novelty,? i think is an okay way to put it? no, two-spirited are not just your native equivalent to trans folk., guh. granted i see that less than i used to so i will be grateful.

being both of the above and being able white is. Interesting. my mixedness has impacted my whiteness my entire life, people usually assume i'm white and haven't always responded wonderfully to my being a more ambiguous white-passing mixed person,. "white" has never been an answer i can settle for because it's incomplete, yeh? around the time i began discovering and becoming of my queerness what & who i am was Not relevant to me at all, ethnicity wasn't a thing of importance, and my general understanding of things was from a perspective of "race". if anything, i was just a white queer, at first i bought into lesbian and transmasc stereotypes way too much for my own good, and later on i wanted to look like the pale, skinny white guys with fluffy hair way too much for my own good. when my mixedness became a true thing of value to me and became a thing i started working to understand, it effected my whiteness first and overtime my idea of "race" ultimately began to deconstruct. "white" had never meant anything to me, but now it meant even less., which was Odd. the more i lost from nothingness, the more whiteness became a Pit, in many ways basically. ehn. i couldn't be a white queer anymore because by God if i were a white queer, white queers were not Me,. my whiteness became my irishness, my slavicness, my germanness, jewishness (?)), etc. and thus it was through those things i was queer and through queerness i was those things. or sSomething.

never in my life will i probably ever fully relate to other black or native queers and i'll never relate to white queers at All, lol. All In All; white queers do NOT know how to act around queer poc 🗣️ of the many white queer friends i've had and of the fewer queer poc friends i've had, being the outsider amongst white queers has been one of my greatest misfortunes. Alas,

EDIT: i remembered i wanted to say somethin g like; the white queer's only threat of discrimination and threat to safety is because of their queerness in a society made for them, otherwise they are fine. their threat to security and privilege comes from exposure, queerness can't truly be determined from the outside. there's safety so long as you're perceived as cishet

for poc, there is no escape from exposure, and so there's no real way to guarantee safety or hiding. revealing your queerness or having your queerness revealed is an even further threat to you. (in my own case [ambiguity/yt-passing], exposure isn't the most definite answer as to what you are, so now there is fear in being confronted about what you are, being honest about what you are, etc. ambiguity is a very uncertain risk, being visibly non-white is a very uncertain risk, it is a guarantee that you will be treated differently.)

Chapter 29

This chapter is so bad I swear but I wanted to get it done for people and I hope you like it..

Comments are most appreiciated

George's POV

A few hours after we had done what we'd done we were both sat with each other quietly just studying our own stuff with each other's company, it was peaceful and it really helped me having him there just the extra person to give you comfort, studying in my own got really boring and it was really starting to drive me insane but while he was there with me it helped a lot , every now and then I'd catch him mumbling little things to himself like "nah man your an idiot", or simple sums trying to work out his maths problems a few times I did notice him get a little frustrated and upset so I helped him through a couple of solutions on how to fix them because I know maths can be challenging and he's told me before that it was something he didn't like, but in turn he'd helped me through my English literature paper which I am eternally grateful for. Even though I was enjoying the peace and we were both getting work done there was still a little problem itching at the back of my brain that I needed to ask about. I was just scared to ask incase it wasn't my place too, but I think he could tell because in the last fifteen minutes all I'd done was stare into space or directly at him and he'd caught me a few times

"Hey my love , can I ask you something"

"If it's about maths darlin, it should be me asking you?" , I know for a fact he knows what I'm going to ask him so he's just trying to make light of the situation before it gets a little deeper

"No my love , I need to ask you about the other night" , I visibly saw him tense at the question and he dropped his pen in the desk and scrubbed his face over with his hands

"What about it gorgeous?"

"Can you tell me what happened"

"Nothing happened really , it was just a bad day", At this he picked up his pen and tried to concentrate on his work again but I could tell he was a little nervous, stressed out maybe and I don't want to be the person that causes that for him but I also don't want him to feel like he can't tell me how he's feeling. I don't want to push it I know he'll tell me in his own time but I'm worried for him. For now I just let him concentrate on his work it'll keep him focused for now but I know I'm going to worry about him. Getting back to my own work will be a challenge. I try I really do but it's hard and I can't seem to focus on it and I know he's watching me "George"

"Yeh?"

"I'm sorry, I know you worry about me but it's just if I tell you, you'll just worry more and I can't do that to you"

"My love , I understand it's difficult for you but I need you to hear me out here, we're talking and we like each other right , you would be worried if I was in the same position as you right ...", I pause for a second to let him answer which he does with a small nod. "You'd want me to tell you what was going on yeh ?" , he nods again slightly looking more sheepish and shy. "We'll then you understand that if I'm asking how things were it's because I need to know and of course I'm going to worry but it's important I know so I can help"

"I know you wanna help , it's just complicated Georgie, and I would tell you but I don't really understand why it happened , other than I was really deep in my own head"

"We'll we can start there , what were you thinking about , what was going on your head"

"There's just always so much going on my head all the time , I can't shut it up you know, it's so hard to feel comfortable when you can hear everything that's going on and theres just so much pressure in my head and it feels like I'm going to explode if I don't shut it up, and if I do explode I just get angry at everyone and I hate that , drugs or alcohol are the only way I know that makes it quiet for a little while , I can lose myself and feel like I'm not actually in my own body for a while" , Matty had shoved his books out of the way and was resting his face in his hands while his elbows dug into the desk that he was working at.

"What did you take?, it's okay if you don't want to say", I think I probably know the answer since it was only a few days ago when it happened last but if I can be more knowledgeable about how to help him when he's on a come down then it'll make things a little easier for him.

He looks a little uncomfortable, fidgeting in his seat "Coke, but I drank a bit too and I think my body just kind of shut down, because one minute I was okay and the next I felt like I was dying and that's never happened before , like you know the panic just over took me and I couldn't breath, I just thought we'll this is it , for a second I didn't mind which is the scary part"

"You...you don't ....you don't really wanna die do you"

"Not right now I don't no, but in the moment I didn't mind for just a second, I'm not going anywhere though darling I promise , I just find it hard sometimes"

"How does it feel when your on a come down , from what I know about drugs there's always a come down" I'd moved over to my bed at this point my work completely forgotten about, the bed being more comfortable.

"I either get really clingy to people cuz I'm in pain or I'm just angry and I hate that. It usually happens a couple hours after , Ross is really good at dealing with me he's been doing it a long time loads more times than he should really, I mean I'm always clingy so I'd understand that he can deal with that but when I'm angry he deals with it so we'll I couldn't ask for anyone better"

I know Ross is his best friend but I still couldn't help but resent him a little, it's maybe even jealousy that he gets to be with Matty as much as he wants he can just go see him anytime he likes, sees him at his best and can help him through his worse. Ross is amazing from what I've seen over the weekend he's a wonderful guy and I'm glad that Matty had someone but I'm just envy him a little. I must be thinking about it harder than I thought I was because Matty pulls me out of my thoughts "Georgie ??"

"Mmm?"

"What're you thinking about darling? , you were very deep in thought just then"

"I just wish I could be there , wish I could be the one you could rely on when your feeling like that"

"Trust me if you knew how it was really , you wouldn't want to even be near me, it just makes everyone around me upset and it's so bleak and dark for ages" I can see his eyes have begun to look glassy and I really don't want him to cry right now because it'll break my heart.

"My love trust me , I wanna help no matter how dark it gets . I'm here okay, We can talk about something else if you like" , I notice him shrug but only minutely if I wasn't paying close attention I wouldn't have noticed at all.

"No it's okay , I'm seeing my doctor on Monday so I'm going to have to figure out how to talk about it"

"We can do something else for a while though if you need , watch a movie or something take your mind off of it , maybe watch some more game of thrones I know we liked that " I watch him look up from where he'd been boaring a whole into the floor and faintly smiles at me "would you like that love ?" , Matty nodes calmly and wanders off to his bed and brings me with him as he settles

I let him get comfortable as he pulls his duvet around him even though it's only 3pm and cuddles up with his cozy cardigan again then I set up the show for us so he doesn't have too and can just stay settled up in his own little world "you look so cosy my love ", he just smile at me sweetly and nods to me as the show begins , the theme tune breaking through my room brings me a lot of joys , I know I've only just watched a few episodes with him but this feels like our thing and it makes me happy as well as the fact I can see it makes him happy aswell , he's so cute just softly bobbing his head along to it the episode plays as we both lay there basking in the events of the show , stealing glances every so often like we usually do. As the next episode begins I can see his eyes start to drift closed as he grip on the cardigan looks to be getting tighter. It makes me smile to no end watching him lose himself to sleep and not fighting it.

"George", I wasn't expecting him to speak as I thought he was half asleep and looked to far gone to even acknowledge that I was still there

"Yea my love?", I was also not expecting the next words to fall out of his mouth.

"I'm scared" , hearing that leave his lips as he drifts of to sleep makes me pause the show and sit up a little straighter. So I can concentrate on him and him only.

"Of what my love?"

" my brain", this comes out as more of a sigh mumbled as if he's not even aware he's speaking, sleep talking maybe but I still have to check if he really knows that he's talking

" why?"

Matty rolls over to lay on his back still gripping his cardigan his hair slowly falling over his face as he shuffles around to get comfortable. He must have been sleep talking as I don't get a reply, my first instinct was to text Ross to see if he's knows if Matty talks in his sleep. So I take out my phone and find him on instagram

George : You bro , does Matty talk in his sleep by any chance

I busy myself doing more work and cleaning my room while I wait for Ross' message, I pick up the pile of dirty clothes and bring it down to the kitchen leaving it in front of the washer as I'm not finished taking things down. Next to come down is the dirty coffee cups and a few plates that I haven't brung down. I bring the hoover upstairs with me when I go back up, I put my side of the call onto mute so as to not wake Matty then begin to hoover up my room it's such a mess up here. I never usually let it get this bad but I've been so preoccupied lately , after hoovering up my floor I take the nozzle off and hoover up the dust , ash and nicotine from my windowsill (rank I know I'm sorry ), when I've finished hoovering I take my laptop back downstairs with me to begin the washing and dishes .after loading the washing machine it takes me like ten minutes to wash my dishes leaving them on the drying rack to drip dry, my phone vibrates in my pocket

Ross : I don't know a time the lad doesn't talk, why ? Whats up ?

George : it's alright don't worry, I just couldn't tell if what he was saying meant something or not but it's okay don't worry

I slide my phone back into my pocket and turn the washing machine on, I check the dryer to see if there's clothes in there , there is so I get on with folding them into piles. Matty stirs after a little while, while I'm still folding and he sits up bolt right rubbing his eyes "huh?" , I move over swiftly to my laptop and unmute myself

"Hey hey hey , what is it?"

"G..G....G...George?"

"I'm here Matty , I'm here , what's wrong"

He's still rubbing at his eyes quite roughly , and coughing a little bit. "I think I was having a nightmare but....I don't...I don't remember...falling asleep"

"You fell asleep like 30 minutes ago my love, what we're you dreaming about?"

"It was like I was alive but like also dead and I was just walking around and like when I tried to speak to someone I either couldn't speak or if I could they weren't hearing me or they were just choosing to ignore me , not that scary I understand but it just freaked me out"

"Maybe it's because you struggle to talk to people and you brains just trying to show you how scary it can get"

"Maybe , what are you doing ?" , I know he's just trying to change the subject so he doesn't have to talk for now I'll let him out of talking. I bring my laptop over to the middle island in the kitchen and set it up so he can see that I'm cleaning up and I get back to folding the clothes.

"I just finished cleaning my room, but now I'm just cleaning up for mum"

"Awww mummies boy are we ?"

"Are you not?", the smile he gives back in response , goofy and lopsided like he's a puppy trying to understand humans. "What's that face for ?"

"You really are, aren't you?"

"Am what?"

"Mr Perfect"

The folks to whom I am most attentive seem to be those who have been called to bear witness, to testify, and to teach. Folks like Heather Cox Richardson, President Carter, yeh, and this guy Anthony Bourdain. I think that God has a favorite prayer, and that it is simply “Thanks”. I am deeply grateful for these teachers, they light my spiritual path

“I think money is shit. You know… how much you spend on a thing… If I spend a couple thousand dollars on sushi for two, I don’t feel guilty about that. I do find that my happiest moments on the road are not standing on the balcony of a really nice hotel. That’s a sort of bittersweet—if not melancholy—alienating experience, at best. My happiest moments on the road are always off-camera, generally with my crew, coming back from shooting a scene and finding ourselves in this sort of absurdly beautiful moment, you know, laying on a flatbed on those things that go on the railroad track, with a putt-putt motor, goin’ across like, the rice paddies in Cambodia with headphones on… this is luxury, because I could never have imagined having the freedom or the ability to find myself in such a place, looking at such things. To sit alone or with a few friends, half-drunk under a full moon, you just understand how lucky you are; it’s a story you can’t tell. It’s a story you almost by definition, can’t share. I’ve learned in real time to look at those things and realize: I just had a really good moment.”

–Anthony Bourdain

"Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" has been my comfort movie ever since I first watched it back in 2014.

Over the past ten years, I’ve rewatched it more than a dozen times. I know most of the dialogues by heart, but with each viewing, I find myself connecting to a different character, discovering a new meaning.

I remember the first time I watched the film, all I wanted to do was be like Bunny. I’d take my purple backpack, roam around the house fantasizing the different corners as different cities. My Dadi would ask me curiously what I was doing, and I’d confidently tell her, “Main udna chahta hun, daudna chahta hun. Girna bhi chahta hun. Bas, rukna nahi chahta.” - not even fully grasping the significance of those words.

Later on, when i developed feelings for someone for the first time, and discovered that we were polar opposites, I found myself relating to Naina. I saw myself in her. I felt her frustration with a life that felt restrictive, her yearning to break free from the confines of academics. Teenage Rupkatha sobbed uncontrollably when Naina told Bunny, “Agar main kuch aur der yahan ruki to mujhe tumse pyaar ho jaega, phir se. Aur tumhe nahi hoga, phir se.”, I cried even harder when she realised they want different things in life and she had to let him go.

The next time I watched it, I was going through one of life’s chaotic phases, pursuing every hobby, taking every opportunity. But whenever something slipped through my fingers, I would be so hard on myself, isolating from everything around me. Then, Naina’s words struck me again “Life mein jitna bhi try karo, kuch na kuch toh chootega hi. Isliye yahin, isi pal ka mazza lete hain.” That's all it took for me to embrace my present and appreciate the people around me.

I could go on and on about how Aditi’s line -Kuch logon ke saath rehne se hi sab theek ho jata hai.” taught me the value of true friendship. I am, and always will be, deeply grateful for the incredible souls in my life. However, Aditi choosing Taran was questionable for teenage Rupkatha (i mean come on! Have you seen how hot Aditya Roy Kapor is? How could she?) but later in life, it occurred to me that Abhi never loved her romantically no matter how ready Aditi was. Abhi couldn’t see her efforts and she accepted it for her own good.

When I rewatched it last night, I found myself relating to Bunny more than ever before. His passion, his curiosity and lust for travelling made me admire him all over again.

Rupkatha is an adult now, wanting very different things than she did ten years ago. As I stand on the cusp of a new chapter in life, I finally understand that Bunny wasn’t selfish for leaving everything behind, he was guilty for missing out on moments, too. I want that same courage to chase my dreams, but I too am afraid, afraid to leave behind the people I love.

Yet, this chapter excites me, urging me to explore myself and my potential. It pushes me to pursue the things I’ve always loved doing.

Life goes in a circle, tai na? Because now I finally understand the depth of - “Main udna chahta hun, daudna chahta hun. Girna bhi chahta hun. Bas, rukna nahi chahta.”

I am happy and relaxed. Kyuki agar life mai kuch aur acha likha hoga sayad. Aur mere sath toh hamesha se aisa hi hota aa raha h, so dekhte h aage kya hota h. Sab ek dum hil jata h yr muhje yahi cheez pasand nahi h. But vahi h ki life mai kahi na kahi kuch acha hi likha hoga bas apna kaam karte raho sahi se. Aur patienly wait karo right opputunity ka. Agar tume pata h ki tum sahi ja rahi ho toh phir toh kio problem nahi h. Bas mind ko relax rakho kyuki you also know saara khel mind ka h. Aur quality par dhyan do. Jab kio rashta nahi dekh raha tha tab aage badh gaye h toh ab toh rashte hi rashte h. Kabhi kabhi kuch rashte aapke favour mai hi band hote h yeh baat toh h. Agar yeh rashta bhi band hua h toh kahi na kahi kuch bada game hoga isme. Itna toh yakin h muhje. Aur yahi ki mujhe wakiye mehnat karne ki jaroorat h agar aage badhna h toh sacch mai yr. Bina kisi time pass ke, muhje toh job chale jaane ke liye grateful hona chahiye tha. I have to work on my passion yr. Aur career mai risk nahi lenge toh aur kaha lenge yr.

Mardaani turns ten: Tahir Raj Bhasin recalls Aamir Khan praising his performance in his debut film; "I was over the moon when I saw his tweet for me"

Tahir Raj Bhasin commemorates the tenth anniversary of his first film, Mardaani, which marked his Bollywood debut. Pradeep Sarkar directed the film, which stars Rani Mukerji and Tahir Raj Bhasin in prominent roles. This was also the first installment in the legendary Mardaani franchise.

Tahir said on the occasion of the film's tenth anniversary, "As Mardaani clocks in ten years, I look back with tremendous appreciation for the memorable adventure of working on this groundbreaking picture. I am really grateful for the unique opportunity to make my debut in a YRF film directed by the brilliant Pradeep Sarkar and starring opposite Rani Mukerji. I recall being told that, out of hundreds of tryouts, I had been chosen to portray the anti-hero in Mardaani. I cried with joy. The feeling didn't sink in until we all gathered for the first sit-down script reading."

When asked about his first film, Mardaani, which was directed by Pradeep Sarkar, Tahir stated, "It was a transforming experience for me. Working with Pradeep Sarkar was an honor; he was a maverick innovative filmmaker. His advice was invaluable in creating a delightful anti-hero with style and edge. Pradeep sir's portrayal of the anti-hero in Mardaani set it apart. He had an incredible ability to give clear guidelines while also allowing an actor to explore true emotional performances. Every moment spent with him on set was a learning experience."

Tahir commented on his experience working with Rani Mukerji, saying, "Sharing the screen with Rani Mukerji was equally inspiring." She was a celebrity I grew up watching. There was so much to learn from her. Rani Mukerji's presence was captivating, and her expertise and dedication to the role were unrivaled."

Tahir reflected on his path with gratitude, saying, "Landing the role of the anti-hero in the first part of the Mardaani franchise was a dynamic start for me and an experience I will always value."

Tahir's portrayal of the nuanced and multifaceted anti-hero in Mardaani received considerable praise. His performance cemented his reputation as an actor who can effortlessly transition between intense and grim roles. Tahir will next appear in the second season of Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein on Netflix, a romantic criminal thriller whose first season received widespread acclaim.
