ORDINARY THINGS THAT FEEL INTIMATE

[ jacket ] sender takes their jacket off and hangs it on receiver's shoulders

"Oh please- you don't have to do that..."

Kira protests the action as Buck drapes his jacket over her shoulders. Ever smiling, it was enough to keep her warm. She'd been wearing her own jacket as well, but she'd still been quivering. Her nose bright red and her palms rubbing together.

"..... Aren't you gonna get cold?"

His look is insistent, as if Buck could ever get cold! It's what you did for ladies! It was the polite thing to do!

Kira watches him skeptically, expecting him to begin trembling any moment now. As if his sunshine could ever be dimmed.

After a few moments, she relaxes into the beat up coat.

Smells like primrose and leather.

❝ sorry. i’m a little accident - prone. ❞

╰┈➤ STARTER PROMPTS : Clue ( 1985 )

No matter how many years pass, it still did not sit right with him that he was almost looking at himself. But he says nothing of it, after all, the awkwardness was always a bit palpable between the two of them.

" 'Accident prone' you say? Hmm. I never would have noticed."

Cicero muses a bit sarcastically as he watches Buck bandage up his fingers after wounding himself. Seemingly not the first time.

"It's Buck, right? I hope your clumsiness only extends to physicality and not so much your speech. After all, I'm not supposed to be here. And as the NCR says, loose lips sink ships and all."

@cold-steel-eyes liked for a starter

Fiona glanced down into the hole in the ground, the green glow coming up from it causing a bit of worry, it wasn't so much as the glow itself but the fact that it was moving around.

She looked to him and whispered. "This might be our only way out but this could be a serious issue." Her eyes look back up into the empty room, the latter they had climbed down had fallen down and crumbled making the way they came in just out of reach.

(Are we sending in cursed Valentine’s Day cards now??? Because I am way ahead of you)

He squints at it, and even lifts his sunglasses to get a better picture. "I don't get it."

"But, uh.... thanks."

Is that a blush, Craig?!

“You okay? I could tell they were bothering you..”

“Oh...” West shrugged, attempting to play it off as if he wasn’t worried about Pacer fucking with him. The King was one very cool cat, but a few of his followers left a lot to be desired. West stood up to Pacer, the punk bitch, but he wasn’t about to get in a fight after finding the perfect pair of glasses for him.

This guy coming along and scaring them off however, was pretty welcome. Pacer was generally a pain in the ass to deal with. The less he had to do that...

“He’s a dick,” West snorted, shaking his head. “Thanks, man.”

West had no idea he’d worked with Vince before. Before Benny came across either of them. Two couriers not recognizing each other, despite crossing paths, despite being on the same list leading to them losing their memories.

Xaos in the back: please help-

Remembering the time I was commissioned to draw Spider-Punk vs Cold Steel the Hedgehog and i'm gonna be real I still think this is one of my best works. I got like way too into all the effects and quite frankly could not tell you how the fuck i did them. Would be a headache to try and replicate but also I would absolutely dive into that headache cause damn i'm happy with this.

Please consider supporting my Patreon, it would be very appreciated

FALLOUT: NEW VEGAS SENTENCE MEME

She was insistent that she wouldn't dare bother him. After all, he was 'The Courier'. Buck was always so busy and waist deep in someone else's shit. She couldn't possibly put more pressure on him.

But Buck was just as insistent and stubborn as she was. Perhaps it would just be easier to agree and never ask.

Kira sighs heavily, hand reaching up to rub the back of her neck before looking to him with a defeated nod.

"I know. That's... very kind of you to offer, Buck. I just- have a hard time asking for help."

She catches his gentle gaze, "Just remember to come back and rest sometimes ok? Maybe then I can ask you for a favor."

12. how long does it typically take for your muse to fall asleep?

((I didn't feel like going back and finding the meme for this but that's a-ok. I have everything I need in the ask anyway. :D

Cicero takes a little while to fall asleep. I'd say an hour-ish. This isn't due to overthinking or the inability to relax or anything really. It's more for his own safety.

He's aware that most people would prefer to kill him without a fight. The logical way would be to try to sneak up on him while he's sleeping. So usually, he'll act as though he is going to sleep. Turn out all the light sources, cover up, close his eyes.

But usually he'll wait. Listening and waiting.

(Perhaps that IS him overthinking and anxiety?)

Either way, after awhile of absolutely nothing, he'll fall asleep pretty quickly. And if sleeping with another person he knows well? He falls asleep pretty quickly.))

The prince is overrated. So: Royal AU in which Nico is a King.

That’s it. That’s the post.

Thinking abt canon and "heavily implied in canon" ships and their categories

(Most common) Important to the plot and I've been with it the whole way so I get it, maybe no strong feelings but I'm having fun

(On occasion) HRGRGDSG THEY'RE SOOOO.... AUAUAUAU theyre so inlove guys like theyre SO in looove auauau what if I died

(Semi-common) Not really my thing but I Get It. Like I understand why people like it and can see the appeal and even appreciate it but it's not my particular pick

(Unfortunately frequent) I can conceptualize what they were going for and the potential appeal but they did it Badly

(One time is too many and it's happened more than that) Literally why the fuck would you do that. There is no fucking reason. I hate it

[itspileofgoodthings]

this is news to none of you but i'm a die-hard romantic and as long as there is genuine affection and sincere romantic interest present there's almost no situation where I don't want an ongoing relationship to become good and beautiful even when the involved parties are damaged or deeply flawed. I love love!!! I love redemption stories!!!!!!! I wanna see both!!!!! I wanna see people change and fall in love and change bECAUSE they fall in love and fall in love so hard THAT they change. There is nothing I ever want more than that. All the time!!!!!!!!!! I want my realistic projections to be proven wrong and I want true love to win the day!!!!! And I stop shipping things when it's clear that that possibility has been rejected utterly and completely but not before lol!!!!!!!

It’s going down now: in meme format.

It's those unintelligent monsters, ain't it?

What are they thinking? Please, explain it

Don't really need this crap, can't waste time

What I possess can't copy and paste down

I'm doing it better, never settling for another regular

Letter to my enemies, hey, I'm telling ya

I'm breaking you down to the level of molecular

Better be wise when you're choosing battles, it's mostly babbles

You know one of those big-time shady foe-foes ain't worth fighting for

I drop these bars in my sleep

Few more tricks up my sleeve

It's way too late for you to leave now (get ready)

Disturbing the peace

Look into my eyes

Now tell me the things

You know, laughing about behind my back

The tenacity I hold

It's hard to break down

It's too late for apologies

It's going down now

You're thirsty for some blood

Actually craving for love

What you only want is dub

Greed makes you go numb

Purposefully, blocking good thoughts

Hey, please, doctor, doctor

He's about to be that patient

'Cause I'm about to knock him out cold

(Bring him back, please)

Whole lotta moves I make on you like dance floor

And during this beat down

You prolly wish that you can fast-forward (oh)

Don't you worry about it

I'll save some room for your last words

After I do this, do that, and the third

Disturbing the peace

Look into my eyes

Now tell me the things

You're blabbing about behind my back

The tenacity I hold

It's hard to break down

It's too late for apologies

It's going-

Some things may break me

But always get back up

New perspective gained

From all the pain and stress

And when I do come back

I'm stronger than ever before

So, kneel down

Disturbing the peace

Look into my eyes

Now tell me the things

You're blabbing about behind my back

The tenacity I hold

It's hard to break down

It's too late for apologies

It's going down

@pseudomonacarriea​ asked:

When she would come back from her duties, a lavish display of food and wine decorates the table. For him, she deserved only the best that he could come to acquire, no matter the price. Even if... that left his wallet a little more shallow than Hua would have liked it to be.

Dressed in a formal Longzhou garb, Zhongli extends his hand toward the surprised Hua.

"You're wearing the dress I asked you to don."

He couldn't be happier. Pieces of his plan were coming together smoothly. Gloved fingers gently take hers into his own, guiding her towards an open spot in the room that he cleared.

"Wait here a moment."

Soft footsteps move to the record player in the back. A gift from Kaeya with something about playing it to enjoy the music of Astra. Or was it -- ah, right. It came from Childe after he went on a shopping spree with Aedre and got an extra. He figured the brunette could use it. The sound of a soft record scratch as he put the needle down against the vinyl, and a soft tune began to play. Orchestrated to play softly, Zhongli makes his way back to where Fu Hua was standing.

"May I have this dance, and this evening with you?"

For this was one the many of gifts he had to give her.

Happy Birthday, Hua.

Happy Birthday, Fu Hua! || Not Accepting

In all honesty, she was quite startled that he had remembered to keep his Nightium on hand rather than to have the Lins foot the bill for him. Perhaps he was now better in remembering that the Guild was already hard enough on times that they could no longer manage such a thing? Regardless, there’s a faint smile tracing her lips as the appetizing aroma of the myriad of traditional Longzhou dishes wafts through the air. Crystal shrimp, savory gān guō with generous helpings of meat and fish, xiao long bao, and phoenix buns--Zhongli had truly outdone himself this time.

Today was the day that she had graduated from avian form to one that was much more human, even if there were remnants of her time as a phoenix evident in her features at times, namely when utilizing her Luminatics. The feathers normally adopted a color more akin to her general hair color, a dark azure that contrasted the expensive, cream-colored silk adorned with blue and gold qipao that she had been gifted a long while ago.

“You went through the trouble of having something so elaborate made for me, how could I not?”

There is no accusation in the Fiendling’s voice, merely matter-of-fact--This dress was quite important to her, enough that she seldom wore it unless requested or a particularly formal event had come about that required her presence. As if by second nature, she accepts his hand, fingers delicately resting atop his until they are forced to part for a time once she is personally escorted into a more open space. 

As the unmistakable sound of a pipa being gently plucked at before the singer’s voice gradually joins, Zhongli extending his hand out to her after making that request leaves her surprised for a moment.

“...!”

There is but a small pause, before she once again accepts his hand with a soft shake of her head in disbelief, but a gentle, soft smile brimming with emotion.

“ ....Dāngrán, xiǎo huàidàn.“

Xièxiè ni, Zhongli.
