kiss kiss fall in love...?
transformers / multiple ships mentioned / headcanons / warnings: NA / notes: what if the lost light was a host club and they were all losers / consider commissioning me!
Lost Light Failboy Host Club
Rodimus (red) - "prince" type. in reality he's totally daft and extremely self-important. he's considered the "most attractive" of the hosts so he's on all the company's promotions. if a girl likes him, it's more likely they have a general interest in confident men who are sure of themselves.
Drift (gray) - "bad boy" type. he's actually really bad at that, though. he can bare his fangs and sharpen his nails as much as he wants, but girls who like being degraded won't get anything out of him. he feels awful being mean to clients, so he's actually really nice, even a little awkward.
Magnus (navy blue) - "studious" type. maybe a little too studious? he's very respectful and kind to all his clients and he speaks rather eloquently, but he also has a law degree and will just infodump about it sometimes. some people like that, so he still has a decent amount of regulars, but more often than not people will ask for him once and then get more than they bargained for.
Tailgate (light blue) - "cute boy" type. you definitely Do get a cute boy if you pick him, so it's not like it's false advertizing, it's moreso just that he has a habit of really badly embellishing stories, which his regulars have started to notice. he still has two Very dedicated regulars though who can see through his bs.
Rung (orange) - "counselor" type. he has this really calming energy about him, and he's knowledgeable about a lot of subjects, and he has nothing but good reviews… from those who actually remember to review him. most people don't know he exists. he only has one consistent regular who is also ironically plagued with amnesia.
Brainstorm (teal green) - "excitable" type. look there's no two ways about it. he's loud and energetic and all over the place and he keeps coming up with dumbfuck ideas that only make sense to him. guests either love him for his good energy or hate him for being obnoxious.
Chromedome (yellow) - "landmine" type. again, y'know, no polite way to say it. CD is super fucking depressed and demanding of care and attention. if he thinks a regular is going to pick someone else, he has a massive breakdown. some guests think they're fake or staged but the other workers are very adamant that CD is just like that.
Other Workers
Swerve - bartender. he's really nice and good to talk to, a lot of people think he's the real reason to come to the club (if he would just stop talking about racing for a second.) if he wasn't so busy as a bartender, he could reasonably be a host.
Rewind - photographer. he's in charge of getting all the photos for the club's promos, and of course he has a lot of photos of rodimus, but… doesn't he also focus on chromedome a little much?
Fort Max - head of security. don't piss him off please trust me.
Minimus - manager. yes, manager by day, host by night, minimus lives a double-life. someone needs to budget the finances, and no one is really more qualified than him. he's desperately in need of a vacation.
Guests
Ratchet - kind of not a guest? he's drift's actual real boyfriend. he almost never actually goes in the club and will often wait outside until drift is done with work. he's a doctor so it's not like he can't afford to go in, it's just that he doesn't want to interrupt drift during work or drive clients away from him.
Megatron - collesseum warehouse worker who also does freelance writing in his off-time. he was saving up to kickstart a career in politics, until the other warehouse workers roped him into checking out the host club. he loves listening to magnus talk about law and will often discuss politics with him.
Cyclonus - old money who runs a "family business" (it's probably a mob but he won't say that.) his work involves a lot of shady characters so he's used to seeing through bs and could tell tailgate was lying instantly. tailgate helps a lot of his anger just disappear.
Whirl - what's his job? who knows! probably something illegal! his favourite hobby is lying so he also saw through tailgate very quickly. he and cyclonus are in constant fights for tailgate's attention- very much rivals.
Skids - wow! what a pretty neon sign! i've never been here before! (he has.) and there's a cute ginger inside! i should go meet him! (they have met.)
Perceptor - he's a biologist in town on business. he honestly just got super lost in the district the club is in and he went in to ask for directions, and met brainstorm. he was so instantly charmed by his idiocy that he now stops by whenever he has time.
Prowl - chromedome's ex who keeps buying time with him to argue. chromedome keeps saying he's gonna get prowl blacklisted but it hasn't happened yet.

the ball pit was this website's Collesseum and the ensuing blood bath was just as heinous.
Tumblr used to be a physical place. It was a large theater built inside of a cliff. The cliff was by a stormy seaside town where all of life began. One night, there was a hurricane, and the Tumblr theater collapsed. This unleashed the Tumblr people upon the town, and thus began the world.

can i ask you a question about knifetrick and also give my headcanons?
i wanna know the moment that Ran and Jackie both properly fell in love. because i feel like their love styles are similar but also so different?
like i think Jackie is the type to get a lot of quick crushes, but if he falls in love it's very rare, and very gradual. like, he had a crush on Ran and knew it, but he didn't realize he liked him until their little date where ran saved his life– despite Jackie knowing about Ran trying to kill him.
on the flip side, i think Ran doesn't really get crushes, and him falling in love would also be very rare. when he does: it hits him hard and fast, but he's somehow oblivious. i sort of interpreted Ran falling in love with Jackie during their fight in the collesseum, but he doesn't even realize it until chapter six when everything goes to shit.
i would love to know if you have any ideas of this, but if you simply wanted gay. in love. that's obviously so valid
you’ve got jackie pretty much down.
rans a bit more of a complicated mess; although he understands the concept and idea of love, it’s mostly from a fiction point of view (from books and such), and he’d have a hard time relating that to his real life. he’s probably also never been in love before.
although he’s gradually becoming more and more endeared to jackie throughout the entire thing, he has no idea that same feeling is the same as the love he’s heard about before until he kisses jackie. then his brain puts those pieces together and he’s gonna immediately fall hard and fast because knowing you have a crush is the number one way to making it serious

vacation with aron includes - aron piper headcannon
a/n: here’s another headcannon bc i thought it would be more fun than writing a huge ass fanfic i’m sorry i love headcannons!
disclaimer: i don’t know aron personally! english and spanish is not my first language so please let me know if i have mistakes! :’)
warnings: none
gif credits to netflix
- okay sooo,, this holiday is a suprise holiday that aron planned for you as a birthday present
- before a day from your birthday, you casually go home after visiting your parents and you see the elite cast including your boyfriend shouting your name and the birthday anthem
- that night was GREAT it was amazing
- then aron pulls to you aside and lets you know that he has something special for you
- he gives you an envelope and you saw the flight tickets that he bought to the place that you’ve always wanted to go
- ‘OMG ARON ARE WE GOING TO ROME?!’
- he just grins at you but you can’t help but jump over him
- so a day before your birthday you guys go to Rome
- before you go you see aron packing a lot of stuff like notebooks and a camera to his bag
- you see he got really prepared and it makes your heart melt
- ‘aron what are those for?’
- ‘you’ll see carina’ he just smirks
- the flight session goes pretty normal aron just sleeps the whole flight and you watch a favorite movie of yours
- you guys go there for 3 days and the first day is basically just discovering a bit
- with arriving in the morning, you guys have plenty of time to discover
- when you arrive at the hotel your jaw drops
- you can see its a huge ass expensive hotel
- ‘aron but i cant afford this place’
- he insists on paying as he loves to spoil you!!!
- after you leave all your stuff in the room and that day is basically just visiting some places near the hotel since aron planned the whole thing for tomorrow
- the first day basically just goes by
- you guys eat at some famous italian restaurants, look at some famous sightseeing places
- but you can’t wait for the second day
- cause you guys keep everything for that day
- sooooo finally the second day comes
- aron wakes you up with playing 'Love In Portofino' cause you love the italian song
- and then he makes you get ready,
- have your breakfast
- then immediately go outside to explore
- he takes you more than 823727363
- and he makes sure that you know everything about the places you visit
- example: in colosseum he acts like crazy
- ‘look Y/N, collesseum is a really interesting place and all the history it has..’
- you don’t really listen to him but instead focus on his face and realize how lucky you are
- oh and he also makes sure that you have fun
- he takes you to many romantic places
- plus, expensive restaurants to spoil you more!!!
- when you guys walk aroumd together aron notices some glances by guys at you
- poor baby tries not to bother but gets angry inside
- in restaurants, waiters flirt with you
- and then aron finds a way to make them realize that you're his gf
- like he would kiss you a LOT (pda who? lolol)
- or call you by pet names like bebe, carina, etc.
- or after eating, he would write a note on a check
- 'get your ass off of my girl dumb ass'
- when you realize that he's getting jealous you'd be happy a bit
- 'wait, is my aronita jealous?'
- he would deny deny deny and deny
- but deep down would want you to realize that he's jealous
- so after all those things, the third day goes by visiting some last quick places
- sadly, the last day comes by
- you and aron make sure that you guys go to the airport early
- cause he wants to get some stuff from duty free
- 'aron, honey, you can find those stuff everywhere'
- 'nO buying from duty free makes it special!!!'
- he spends almost 2,5 hours in duty free
- 'y/n, do you think omar would like this squid flavored pasta?'
- 'he would like what-'
- 'or should i buy this mug to miguel? ohhh and i should buy for his girl friend too!'
- he makes sure to buy everyone a gift
- including new actors who recenty joined elite
- he decides to buy 'squid flavored pasta' to your parents to impress them
- and buy a simple pasta to omar
- while shopping he makes sure to buy a present too
- after a solid 2,5 hours (as i told that before) you drag him out of the store
- the plane ride goes very quickly
- basically just an cutie baby named Aron sleeping
- you only watch movies
- also admire aron
- you realize how lucky you are
- how a person that loves you so much and does many things to you
- you couldn't help but kiss his nose
- 'i love you more than anyone'
- when you land you have to go to seperate ways
- aron takes you to your parents house
- since they also wanted to take you somewhere to celebrate your birthday
- you arrive, and the sudden pain bEGINGS
- you and aron can't stop staring and say goodbye to each other
- 'aron it was the best time of my life. you're the best thing happened to me i love you'
- you kiss him
- he gets shocked by your sudden confession but kisses you back
- that little kiss turns into a wHOLE make out session
- then... i think you know what and i don't have to explain
- but.... a call from your mom ruins this 'i think you know what and i don't have to explain' session
-'ah- yeah mom i'll be there in 5. yes aron was amazing we had the best time. okay bye i gotta go!'
- aron makes sure you have everything
- 'hey don't forget to give your mom the squid flavored pasta!!!!'
- you laugh and ignore him but you cant help but smile
- it was the best experience you've ever had

Ok if you’re sure we’ll start off with Solitude, which isn’t as developed as IRIS. Solitude is Will’s other personal project, alongside IRIS, and the newest, Pandora Anthology. In the way of canon content, all we’ve gotten is a little video on the DaGames channel titled SOLITARY CONFINEMENT, The DaKnockout Solitaire movie which was $&@#ing hilarious, and the Solitaire song Hail to the Jester Queen and King which SLAPS. We only know one character so far: The main villain, Xavier Rotom. This guy. Now, all we know of Solitude so far is that Xavier has kidnapped five people to his collesseum, and they’re forced to play his game: Solitaire X. Solitaire X is like normal, classic, Klondike solitaire, but locked into Grandmaster mode, the hardest mode of all. His goal is to overthrow the capitalist society of advanced technology, AKA the modern world, and send humankind back to primitive times. He claims to have the family members of the five victims he’s captured, and threatens to kill one for every mistake, but aside from his word, we don’t know how true this is. Apart from that, we know nothing about Solitude. There was a little skit made of a Joker parody with Abrahm Valentin, the villain of IRIS, and Xavier, but it’s not canon. Xavier is alluded to being royalty, or trying to take over and become king, but it’s unclear if he’s the king, the prince, a scientist, ect. Again, his story has only just begun, and we don’t even know who exactly our protagonists are. It’s possible the protagonists are Will, Chris, Shawn, Chrissy, and Chichi, but nothing’s been confirmed. I do believe that, like how IRIS is a metaphor for all of Will’s struggles in life, Solitude is symbolic of the isolation of the pandemic. I’m not certain though. In terms of fancontent, there’s not a lot, and as far as I know it’s all on twitter, but if you go on there and search Xavier Rotom, you’ll find some cool stuff! I’ll warn you, everyone is thirsting over the card man. E v e r y o n e wants to smooch him. You’ll probably find art of him being shirtless/extremely buff and doing a sexy pose, and there are two artists in particular (I’m not naming names, but if you find the art you’ll know) who draw him in a way that definitely makes me sigh in exasperation and fondness because I love the artists, I love Xavier, but his mantits are not the size of basketballs guys, calm down(light hearted, not serious) If you want my thoughts on him, I look at him and my brain just yells “HIMBO.” As if he’s NOT a villain who, if he’s being honest, is going to slaughter the families of five innocent people for screwing up and losing a game of Solitaire. I can’t help but see all of this as a bit of a ruse and he’s actually just shy and anxious and had a bad upbringing so he doesn’t know any other way to ask someone to play card games with him. It’s absolutely not what’s happening but a human can dream. I definitely do believe that he’s got some kind of trauma related to technology, though, and I headcanon he got into a laboratory accident that fused his mask to his face. I also headcanon that said mask can emote to an extent. My main deal with him is just “He’s tall and strong and cunning and evil and probably has trauma, I want to hold him like he’s a gerbil in my hands, he’s my poor little meow meow. My little son. He’s not very bright but I love him." For the most part this is all the rambling I’ll put here for now, believe me, explaining IRIS will be even longer. Also you asked to know of the "sexy” characters, so I guess if you like guys like this he counts?? Also you may enjoy Abrahm if you like Xavier. -Z

Travel AU + Bodyguard AU + TheLoveSquare
W-why? Why would you give me this much power?
LADRIEN FTW LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
So Adrien is a famous model, yeah? He's like super super super famous. Anyone who doesn't live under a rock knows who he is.
Adrien is doing a world tour. But it's dangerous. A young star like him attracts many jealous eye. And Gorilla isn't enough. Adrien needs someone who can inconspicuously stick close to him and protect him. So Gabriel says.
Adrien knows he can look after himself. He's perfectly capable of keeping himself safe. After all, he himself is a trained bodyguard with the worlds most elite security firm -- Miraculous (fight me, I haven't slept in 28.5 hours, creativity might be a lil low)
The agency is know mainly for its expertly trained and carefully masked bodyguards for hire. Not even one bodyguard knows who the other is behind a facade.
Each bodyguard has their own supervising officer, an ex-bodyguard trained with certain special abilities. The SO then passes on their specific skill set to the new bodyguard. Yep, the kwami. I told you, I'm running a bit low on creativity.
The bodyguards are trained like spies. To change merely their demeanor to become someone else. Think Clark Kent vs Superman. That scene in one of the Reeves movies I can't quite recall it, where Clark just takes his glasses off and stands a little taller and suddenly, he's Superman. It's a very subtle change, but you would never walk past either of then mistake him for the other.
So there aren't any literal masks involved. Besides, Paris is blind anyway so--
So OBVIOUSLY Gabriel has to hire a bodyguard from the world's most elite security firm and he HAS to hire their best bodyguard. Seeing as Chat Noir is unavailable due to personal reasons, the agency sends in Ladybug.
Ladybug. Who is Marinette. Who has a major crush on Adrien.
Adrien cannot believe his luck. They sent Ladybug. Who is generally his partner. Whom he is madly in love with.
Both of them have the same thoughts bouncing around their heads: This is going to be a difficult two weeks.
I WANT ALL OF THE SPICE, Y'ALL
I want them in big cities, Adrien trying so goddamn hard to channel the suave and smooth Chat Noir but it's just not working sjdjjd. Ladybug doing her level best to maintain her facade and not turn into a melted puddle of blush everytime Adrien looks at her
I want them doing stupid tourist things in other countries and for the first time, Ladybug's actually having fun on a mission and it's not due to her charming partner cracking jokes all night to lift her spirits.
I want them to like ,,, be in Venice, riding a gondola or smth ,,, that scene in the little mermaid ,,,, "kiss the girl" lmao
I want Ladybug to talk to Adrien about Chat Noir. Tell Adrien how she'd blindly trust Chat with her life. Tell Adrien about events he already knows, but from her perspective.
I want Marinette to somehow come up in conversation. I want Adrien to talk to Ladybug about Marinette. How she's so talented and brilliant and sweet. How she's been one of his few genuine friends that he made back in high school.
I want them to spend days thinking about kissing each other.
Ladybug doesn't know he's Chat, right? And if she never finds out, it'll never jeopardize their team dynamic.
And Adrien doesn't know she's Marinette, right? And since he'll never find out, it won't dangle their friendship over a shredding machine.
And then I want them both to think about the kind of dangers they regularly put themselves in for the sake of the agency. They can't let themselves get involved with someone else. What if something happens to them on the job? What if they never come back and the other is left in the dark, never knowing what really happened in the eleventh hour?
And then, in the middle of the second week, I went them to say "fuck it" and go for it.
AND THEN I WANT AN ATTEMPT TO BE MADE ON ADRIEN'S LIFE
AND I WANT LADYBUG TO TAKE THE HEAT BECAUSE SHE'S THE BODYGUARD HERE
AND I WANT ADRIEN TO LOSE HIS FUCKING MIND BECAUSE NOT ONLY IS THAT THE WOMAN HE'S IN LOVE WITH, BUT THAT IS HIS PARTNER, THE PERSON HE SWORE TO ALWAYS BACK UP NO MATTER WHAT
And I want Ladybug to get taken captive, because without his little bodyguard, surely Adrien can't be that hard to get to.
And I want to see Adrien looking at Ladybug, thinking about their vow of secrecy, looking at Ladybug, thinking about all the rules he was about to break, looking at Ladybug, and deciding "fuck it" and going feral on the attackers.
Like ,,,, no mercy, violent street cat on a murderous rampage.
And I want injured and dazed Ladybug to be witnessing all this and all her fuzzy mind can come up with is that the agency sent backup. They sent her kitty cat.
Ladybug comes to in Adrien's hotel room. Adrien has a shit-eating grin on his face and he's leafing through something, like a stack of cards, it seems.
"What are those?"
"Chanelle VanCamp, Moira Rosenburg, Erin Liu, Katherine Harrington, Sophie Busson, Laila Matveyev, Marguerite Ilya, Angeline Lee, Casey Montgomery-- oh! What's this? Marinette Dupain-Cheng!"
"YOU WENT THROUGH MY STUFF?!"
"You should pick a better hiding spot than your breast pocket, bugaboo. Or maybe not, since all these ruined IDs might have just saved your life."
"Bugaboo. . .? CHAT????"
"The one and only."
"When we get back to Paris, I'm going to mash your face into the training mat until your features are unrecognisable."
"Come now, bugaboo, don't be mad.lets just agree not to tell anyone we broke every rule that was ever given to us."
"..."
"And . . . and maybe we can take another trip to the Collesseum?"
"..."
"And . . . call it a date . . . this time?"
"... fine, but from now on, wherever you go, I go -- for bodyguarding reasons, of course."
"Yes, of course. Absolutely."

YAKUZA KIWAMI 2
Yeah, this is the one with the door meme.
Graphics are improved from Kiwami 1 but the animations are still a bit stiff at times since it's based on a PS2 game. I liked the map of the first game and I got used to it but this one has a new map plus visitation to the old map so in my opinion, that automatically makes it better.
It's been about a year since I played Kiwami, as well as a year in-game, so what's new? Vending machines. Some new mini games. It doesn't show its hand at first but I feel like it adds a lot of new content, maybe not on the combat side of things but everything surrounding it makes it feel like a more complete experience.
You can fight in the stores and tear stuff up. And if you do, you can't buy from there until its cleaned up. I actually kinda like that detail even if it can be inconvenient, it gives you reason to control the situation but almost makes me WANT to bring thugs into places just to be chaotic.
The interface has changed a little but I can't tell if it's clearer or not, I'm indifferent. There are also side jobs now which act as side quests, like being a bouncer which basically acts as a Collesseum. You can even manage a cabaret. These aren't really mandatory but fun little additions and give more initiative to do more side stuff.
The story feels like where it would naturally go but I do feel that the setting can be changed. We spend just a little too much time in Kamurocho compared to Sotenbori. I've seen and fought in a lot of these places and while the scenes and setups are different...do we need another funeral fight? In fact it goes out of its way to include it because it starts with a small skirmish then has you leave and go back to town, so sure, ok, they know that it's similar but then it has you come right back once the funeral is over and do the run sequence and boss 😂 I'll admit that it's a shorter sequence than last time and doesn't take place at the very beginning though. It also made for one of my favorite fights thus far. He used a sword, I used a knife and still kicked his arse.
It has some really good shots but it feels the need to keep reiterating itself and telling the viewer what they're seeing. There's a scene at the beginning where it shows a sign to show you the setting (in Japanese mind you, so I can only assume it said Sotenbori but it looked cool!) then pans down to Kiryu, it then flashes back to just before then with the woman telling him about her son, explaining why he's there and then it shows the sign AGAIN and pans down to Kiryu in a different manner than before. It's like they had scenes in mind but weren't sure which perspective to use so they just use both. This doesn't really affect the story, just the visual nature and sometimes makes the characters seem dense. For another example, there's a time where someone mentions 'fireworks' in a cutscene and then Kiryu basically goes "I wonder what that means" and then he hears a commotion and is like "Must be the fireworks." Then they show an explosion on TV "Those must be the fireworks." No dip Sherlock, I think the audience can put that together. I'm viewing this from a movie standpoint because there are so many cutscenes (which isn't a problem but you're going to bring out another critique in me) I talked about how bored I was with Xenoblade's cutscenes, this isn't quite at that level but while this game drags sometimes, it has some really good highlights.
I'll be honest, I was against playing Yakuza 0 whenever I started this series because it just looked overrated but now I think the more of these games that I play, the more I wouldn't mind playing it. Especially seeing clips of it in the karaoke (and maybe seeing that Yuki is in both)
As far as length goes, I spent about 17 hours on the first Kiwami and while I did do more side-quests with this one, I never would've expected it would put me over 26 hours! So really, this game improves on the last one in almost every aspect, making it the superior model.
