#comforting markimoo

[thecelticpyro]

Needed comfort, so I got in my favorite hoodie, made some ramen, and put on some Markiplier.

I have been reminded of the consequences for watching funny videos while eating.

[crushingcasanova]

AHABSBDHDHSHSHD rhbdhdhd i feel so special that you were talking to your friends about me.. fbbhdhf okay im. so normal. okay!! youre so sweet to me >.<

yes, im a big fan of markimoo!! hes a comfort for me, and i think hes really funny. i only really got into him this year but its been nice, especially since i love fnaf and he plays every single game :D

AAA i really hope you like the book, if you can read them! theyre so good. and stephen king is an incredible author?? i once read all of dreamcatcher in five hours

GASP thats evil, i think its a complete mistake that people believe ice cream is only a summer treat, it should be around all the time. i mean.. maybe not in the winter, for the actual outdoor ice cream places. but there was a frozen yogurt place in the um. town? that i just moved from recently, and theres a lot of sitting spots on the inside so its open like all year round, which is THE BEST. and you totally should have some of the gelato, its so good brbfbg

my minecraft user?? umm i think its tiramisoob#143,, i might be wrong, but i should come up under tiramisoob anyways with an enderman pfp thingy!! ID LOVE TO PLAY DTI WITH YOU!!! its okay that youre not good, neither am i.. ive only won once and i was third place

i just finished playing stardew valley!! i made a lot of progress on my farm and in the mines, im now on mine level 50, and my farm has a lot of cleared out trees and a big garden. plus my chickens are really happy! i love stardew so much, its such a good game. what about you though, lovely?

-🫧

Hehe, don't get too flustered! I need you to be able to answer me, after all >_< I'll definitely look into some of his stuff later, too! I've never been a big fnaf fan but I had friends who were really into it, so I know a bit about it. I like it casually! I've played an FNF Mod where he was in it though, it was kinda funny! I so agree! I eat ice cream year round, no matter the temperature. I love froyo too but I never get it... there's a good one in the town next to me that I love going to when I get the chance though, and near my school is a pretty good gelato and ice cream place. I'll add you on minecraft in a bit! My user is SoviNight, in case you want to add me too ^^ You'll definitely have to tell me if you're free sometime, we could totally play some games! I think I might even play DTI tonight so I can practice for you, haha,,, Stardew sounds like fun! Level 50 is so high :0 congrats! And I am happy your chickens are happy! I am now home after my friends left for the night, and I'm on call with a friend of mine as we do our own things. Parallel play stuff, if ykwim! I'll probably practice a bit on games and then end up going to bed pretty late, and I might even sketch if I can get some motivation!

Ok so I randomly remembered I had a Tumblr so hello-

I’d like to headcannon that one time Yandere was crying over his senpai saying they’ll never be together and being all depresso in a burrito blanket.

Then Bim Trimmer just gets tired of it and one day just bitch slaps him, telling him “you can’t just lay down and die because a pimple infested white boy didn’t like you back- really that’s on him. Now get your ass off this bed and throw on clothes, we’re having fun”

And then they went to get their nails done with acrylics, even doing their hair.

Behind Bim’s aggression he did actually feel sorry for the kid, wanting him to feel better.

And to his credit they did have fun.

Sometimes tough love is what breaks through

Just Breathe (Markiplier x Reader) One-Shot

Requested by an anon: Maybe a story about mark comforting reader after an Anxiety attack?

Requests are still open.

Warnings: Mentions of an Anxiety Attack.

Enjoy! 

~ ~ ~ 

Mark will forever be thankful for late night convenience stores. Especially since there is hardly any traffic at such hours, to come and go is always as easy as counting to three. It was a quick run, he merely needed to pick up some more drinks and candy for movie night while you make the popcorn at home- you two had an old fashioned popcorn machine, with a cute little crank even! So thankfully for him, it will still be in all of its hot and buttery goodness by the time he gets home.

     And Mark finds himself doing just that right now, his silver sedan pulling into the driveway. He grabs the bag and walks up to the door and despite his hands being full, Mark rings the doorbell and waits patiently. He rocks on the balls of his feet, the chill Los Angeles breeze causes goosebumps to rise on his tan skin. Yet, Mark waits for at least another minute before shrugging, thinking you didn’t hear the bell, and setting a bag on the porch to get his keys. Once in hand, he unlocks and opens the door making sure to grab the bag again before walking into your shared house. “Home,” Mark calls out, his eyes roaming the area in search for your familiar smiling form.

     But he’s only greeted by silence. His chest tightens as worry begins to wash over him, “___? Where are you?” A fast pounding of paws head toward him, Mark sighs but smiles all the same, “Hey Chica.�� She barks and bounces a bit further in front of him, her tail frantically waving, looking antsy and unable to stand still. Confused, Mark moves to calm her but she only moves further away all while continuing to bark. He thinks before asking her, “Want me to follow you, Chica?” As if she understood him, she barks in response as she darts towards the hall bathroom. His dark brown brows furrow and Mark follows his golden dog down the hall.

     She stops in front of the door, whines and lies down, her big brown eyes looking up at him like a desperate plea. Confusion still clouds his mind until he hears it. He freezes and holds a hand out to Chica as if to tell her to stay quiet, Mark listens closely and his heart breaks at the realization.   

     You’re crying.

     He sets the bag on the floor and walks up to the door, hearing your broken sobs and raises a hand to knock gingerly on the wooden surface. Not hearing a response, he figures your mind is far too distracted to pay mind to his knocking, a heavy weight hits his chest as his fingers wrap around the doorknob in a futile attempt to see if you had left it unlocked. And much to his surprise, you had.

     While he wishes he could relish in this tiny victory, there’s no time to as he slowly opens the door to the bathroom. It isn’t long until Mark watches your curled up frame shaking, sobbing and breathing rapidly in the corner; your hand holds the wrist of the other which can’t seem to stop twitching. You’re having a panic attack. Sadly, he knows these signs well but he also knows that you’re coming down from one- a bad one at that. Cautiously, Mark moves towards you and kneels beside you- not wanting to startle you- he calls your name gently; both to let you know he’s here as well as to get your attention without touching and possibly scaring you.

     His words cut through the clouds in your mind, instantly, you freeze up. How much time has passed since he left? How long has he been here? Seeing you like this, a mess, a sobbing lunatic that started freaking out over nothing. God, he deserves better than this. Better than you. Better than someone who can’t stop crying and shaking in his hall bathroom after making popcorn. You don’t even know what happened, it just… Came over you. A tightness in the chest, tiny bouts of twitching from your fingers and a sudden panic flooding your mind and ridding it of all other senses. Yet, heightened them all to an overwhelming point that it stole your attention and breath.

     In. Out. In. Out. In. Out. In. In. In. Dammit, why couldn’t you breathe?! Your breath escaped you and you had rushed to the bathroom, trying to cool yourself off by splashing water on your skin. Temporarily, it worked, though the adrenaline still pulsed through your veins which only left you exhausted and miserable. You managed to sink into the corner you find yourself in currently; only now, he’s also here. You wish Mark wasn't here right now, he wasn't supposed to see... this.  

     Your doe eyes shift towards his own and he watches as more tears threaten to fall while worry and panic swirl about in your pools. The corners of his lips turning down as his brows knit together, in a strong and steady voice he asks, “What happened?”

     Stands of hair fall in your face as you look down again, curling deeper into yourself, you answer him with a hoarse voice- throat sore from sobbing, “I… I don’t know- it just- I was just making- I... I don’t know, I’m sorry... “

     Mark sighs, “Don’t apologize,” he bites his lip and studies the situation before leaning against the wall beside you. “C’mere,” his arms open and while tentative at first, you eventually give in and hug his torso tightly as if it’s the only thing grounding you to reality.

     His deep voice supplies sweet words of reassurance as he rubs your back soothingly. The rhythmic beating of his heart and aforementioned voice soon enough calm you to the point where they manage to lull you to sleep, the exhaustion finally catching up to you. Mark feels the tension leave your body and listens to the gentle pattern of your breathing, a small smile works its way onto his lips, glad to see you relaxed again. Deciding to stay like this for a bit longer, he quietly sings a slow and mellow lullaby to help keep your sleeping mind at ease.

        You always seemed to love his voice; whenever you would be in his arms and he would just talk to you, you found solace it in. A little piece of heaven on Earth if you will. It never went unnoticed to Mark, and though it may not be the brightest idea, the thought of maybe making you a playlist of him singing soft songs like how he is right now, could be a good one.

     Though, a light chuckle escapes him. 

    Does he dare put an original, super cool and super amazing rap on it too?

:I

Saw this old post about how Markiplier is somehow biphobic or sum shit because when asked if he’s bi, he said “When I said I wasn’t gay, that includes bisexual too” 

Here’s the bone I have to pick with this claim against Markimoo here: Gay can be used as an umbrella term. I’m bi, and I’m perfectly okay with being called gay, so is my omni lover, and basically all of my other queer friends agree with gay being an umbrella term. Just because I’m comfy with it, doesn’t mean other m-specs would be too, of course. But I’m simply stating a fact. 

This specific post was made back in 2016, there was a lot less knowledge about the gays back then and sure Mark could’ve said something that was taken the wrong way. The man’s not homo(as in LGBTQ+, not just gay men)phobic, for one thing, I mean he made a pride line for Cloak during pride month, and even donated (at least some of) the profit to the Trevor Project.

To the anon in that post, and the people in the comments, I suggest you don’t say things about a person unless you know them personally.

[clanwarrior-tumbly]

(Pina Colada Anon) I remember I used to be like 'I don't get simping over real people', and like, two days ago, I still felt that way, but then you started posting stuff about ISWM and its led me down a rabbit hole and has led to me discovering things about myself I had no idea about. Except for the fact that I feel the intense urge to reach through the screen to comfort a character if they're sad or afraid. I've known that for a looooong time.

Welcome to the rabbit hole haha. Markimoo lore has that kind of effect on a lot of us xD

Shattered (Crankiplier)

Summary-

 After Ethan gets hate comments he begins to doubt himself and his insecurities shine to a new light. Mark knows something's wrong and is determined to help his blue angel.Both are crushing on each other but neither are willing to confess . But after Mark reads the comments he's fueled by anger and makes a youtube video accidently confessing his love.

Third person Pov

   Ethan was just reading through comments of his channel Crankgameplays. He read through them with a small smile as he came across a specific comment telling him he had helped them get through their depression. Knowing he helped someone even if it was just a bit made his heart swell with joy he had always been insecure about making a difference in life.

 Those insecurities are still there just not nearly as strong as the blue haired YouTuber continued scrolling through the comments of his newest video his radiating smile turned into a heartbroken expression.

Do you hear that It’s the sound of nobody caring

Lol nobody could ever love you

Kys

Is it just me or is Ethan getting fat? No offense.

It’s not like he wasn't used to hate comments, in fact, that was just part of being a YouTuber but the hate comments had never been nearly as harsh or merciless.

Ethan’s

Pov

  They are true, though  ….. nobody cares about me much less love me. And would anyone even notice if I was suddenly gone? Probably not and it is true I have gained a couple of pounds.

  Was it really that noticeable? Was I really that fat? I already knew the answer standing up from my computer chair that I usually film my videos at I pulled up my striped T-shirt. I pinched and prodded at my slightly toned stomach looking for non-existent body fat. I sat down as tears streamed down my face why hadn’t someone told me how fat I had gotten?

  A knock at my door pulled me out of my thoughts I couldn’t let anyone see how weak I was especially Mark who I have a crush on. He wouldn't care about me anyways he’d only make fun of me my subconscious said. Mark opened my bedroom door and approached me.

‘’ Ethan I’ve been invited to a youtube event dinner and I was wondering if you'd like to come with ‘’ Mark asked.

  The comments were racing through my mind over and over opening new wounds and insecurities.

‘’ Sorry Mark I have to edit videos ‘’ I lied.

  Mark spun my computer chair around forcing my light green iridescent eyes to meet his unique chestnut brown eyes. As soon as he saw me his gaze changed to that of concern.

‘’ Ethan...have you been crying ?’’ Mark’s deep voice asked somewhat softly.

Oh god, he caught me but I can’t let him know about the comments.

‘’ Haha no of course not it’s just allergies ‘’

  Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid you couldn't think of anything else could you Ethan? Mark looked at me with a knowing gaze and I knew I hadn't fooled him.

‘’ Ethan I've known you long enough to know it’s not just allergies. Now please tell me what’s wrong .’’

‘’ Mark I am fine and nothing's wrong but you should probably get going to that event otherwise you’ll be late ‘’

‘’  Fine I suppose you're right just know that this isn't we’ll continue this conversation when I get back ‘’ Mark had said it so determinedly that I knew there was no arguing.

‘’ Fine ‘’ I sighed  

‘’ Bye Ethan ‘’ he said before running out of the apartment Tyler, Mark, and I share.

‘’ Bye ‘’ I whispered.

  I shut my computer before lying in bed skipping dinner. I fell asleep with thoughts of youtube and the horrible comments raiding my mind.

Marks

        pov

 Something was completely and utterly wrong with Ethan and I knew it. Ethan had a tendency to hide things behind a fake smile when he was upset or conflicted. I had seen something flicker in his unique light green eyes.

   Everyone had always said that eyes were the window to the soul and that especially applied to Ethan. Yet today there was no spark no mischievous glint ….no nothing they were just devoid of life almost empty.

   And that alone scared me to death, my blue angel, my reason to live, ….my life had given up. I knew he had been crying no matter how much he had tried to hide it I had noticed the tear stains as well as his eyes darkening a shade.

   Had I done something wrong, had the playful insults become too much, had he gotten tired of me, and most of all had the stress of Youtube finally gotten to him? Oh god, I sure hoped not but like I said I would find out there was absolutely no way I would let this slide.

  If someone or something was troubling Ethan it had just become my problem as well as my main concern. No one and I mean nothing gets away with harming my Ethan.

  All I need to do now is suffer through this event and then I can come home and find out what had been troubling Ethan.

I arrived at the dinner and sat by Tyler. Tyler knows about my crush on Ethan.

‘’ Where’s Ethan ?’’ Tyler asked I just gave him a worried look before speaking.

‘’ I tried getting him to go but when I asked him he declined but he had tear streaks on his face he had clearly been crying but played it off as allergies ..it obviously wasn't allergies Tyler something's wrong with him and I’m worried .’’

  Tyler stared at me for a moment as if he was pondering my stupidity before finally speaking.

‘’ Mark what the hell are you even doing here? Ethan clearly needs you whatever he’s hiding must be serious I can take your place meeting the fans but you need to go find Ethan .’’ I nodded quickly desperate to find Ethan.

‘’ Thanks, Tyler ‘’ I said while getting up from my seat.

‘’ No problem and hey Mark ?’’

‘’ Yeah ?’’

‘’ You need to tell him before it’s too late ‘’

‘’ I know I’ll try ‘’

With that said I ran to my car and started driving as fast as I could tripping once or twice along the way.

(Time skip at home )

  As I approached Ethan's room I found him sound asleep and I didn't have the heart to wake him he looked so adorable his electric blue hair was sprayed across his face while his long arms hung limply off the bed. I looked around the room and found his computer curious as to what video Ethan had edited I opened the computer to find Ethan’s recent video.  

  But that’s not what caught my attention what caught my attention was the comment section……..

I nearly cried I honestly nearly cried as I read some of the many comments.

You're ugly why don’t you go kill yourself

you're only famous because of Mark

Do you hear that It’s the sound of nobody caring Lol nobody could ever love you Kys Is it just me or is Ethan getting fat? No offense.

  Rage, regret, love, and sorrow filled me all at once. I felt rage towards the many people who had commented these vile things quite honestly it made me want to find these people one by one and make them regret ever hurting my blue angel.

 The feeling of regret was strong because I had teased Ethan many times sometimes I took it a little too far and who knows what horrible things could be running through his mind by now.

  I felt love for Ethan he had been through so much and yet he still acted happy for others. He was just so selfless and adorable I could be having the worst day ever and one look at him made my day.

  But most of all I felt sorrow for not realizing sooner, sorrow forever teasing Ethan, sorrow at just thinking about what Ethan had gone through, and lastly, I felt sorrow for the people who couldn't grasp how truly amazing Ethan is.

  Scheming an idea I softly set Ethan’s computer down and walked out the door but not before I looked at Ethan one last time.

I ended up in my studio where I record video’s I took a deep breath before looking at the camera. As soon as the camera started recording I started with my usual intro.

 ‘’Hello everyone Markiplier here ‘’I gave a little wave before becoming serious once more

 ‘’ This video isn't about gaming or anything funny in fact it’s quite important. Lately, my friend Ethan or Crankgameplays as you know him has been staying with me. Anyways he’s been gaining a lot of subscribers lately and as you know more subscribers come with more hate as well. But the hate he’s been getting is overwhelming there are people telling him to kill himself! And before you say anything you would regret no he didn't tell me about the hate I found out myself. The hate needs to stop and it needs to stop now!  I …… can’t lose him because the truth is ….I-I love him. If something were to ever happen to him I would never be the same and Markiplier would be no more. At this point, I don’t care whether or not you support it if you do thank you if not then why are you still on my channel? Anyways this is a warning quit posting hate comments. Oh, and for those who ship Crankiplier your one more step closer to it becoming reality I can only hope he won’t reject me .‘’

  After pouring my heart out over camera I titled the video ‘ATTENTION viewers’ before uploading the video.  

Ethan’s

            Pov

  My phone gave off a quiet ding alerting me of my notifications, sighing I yawned and then stretched my arm across my bed to reach my phone on the nightstand.  Turning it on I was surprised to see youtube had alerted me of a new video from Mark.

 Clicking on it I was surprised to see the video titled ‘ATTENTION viewers '. This must be important because Mark rarely ever does serious videos. I was surprised to see the video had 1,101,760 views it had just been uploaded a little while ago. So why does it have so many views? Deciding to watch the video I tapped the play button and waited for it to start.

‘’Hello everyone Markiplier here ‘’ Mark gave a little wave but I frowned something about this seemed off.

 ‘’ This video isn't about gaming or anything funny in fact it’s quite important. Lately, my friend Ethan or Crankgameplays as you know him has been staying with me. ‘’What does this have to do with me? He seems so serious there's no way this is just about me staying with him. ‘’ Anyways he’s been gaining a lot of subscribers lately and as you know more subscribers come with more hate as well. ‘’ Oh god please please please tell me he didn’t find out about the hate comments! But the hate he’s been getting is overwhelming there are people telling him to kill himself! ‘’

 I shuddered Mark found out he freaking found out. A-and now everyone's gonna think I’m some wimp that needs Mark to protect me!

’’ And before you say anything you would regret no he didn't tell me about the hate I found out myself .’’ I gave a sigh of relief at least some of my fears hadn’t been exploited.

’’ The hate needs to stop and it needs to stop now!’’ 

Just because you made a video about it doesn't mean it’s gonna stop if anything It will only become worse.

’’I …… can’t lose him because the truth is ….I-I love him. If something were to ever happen to him I would never be the same and Markiplier would be no more. At this point, I don’t care whether or not you support it if you do thank you if not then why are you still on my channel? Anyways this is a warning quit posting hate comments. Oh, and for those who ship Crankiplier your one more step closer to it becoming reality I can only hope he won’t reject me .‘’

 The video ended and I was left in shock. He loves me?! Mark Fischbach loves me ..there's there's just no way. Yes, I love him but I never expected him to return my feelings. T-this must be some sick prank I mean why would someone as amazing as Mark ever love me? I mean I’m practically worthless. Yet why would he have gone through all this trouble if he hadn’t meant it? Ugh, it was so hard battling with myself why was this so hard ?!

‘’ Ethan get it through your head  he does not love you !!’’ I hadn't expected anyone to reply so when I heard a familiar voice reply I almost yelped in fright.

‘’ What if I told you were wrong ?’’

  Had Mark seriously just said that?! And if so does he truly mean it? Or is he just pitying me because of all the hate? I hate pity it’s not like their actually sorry for you there not sympathizing for you if anything it’s the complete opposite there sorry for you for their own personal gain. If it doesn't involve the person or doesn’t give them an advantage or personal gain you can consider yourself complete trash because that’s how they act towards you after.

  I sighed I knew he was only pitying me he didn’t really love me. Him loving me was like a fairy tale completely and utterly pointless besides the moral and my story was telling me to get my head out of the clouds. I looked Mark straight in the eye before speaking what was on my mind something I rarely ever do.

‘’ Mark I’m not wrong you are. You don’t love me and we both know it if this is out of pity I would prefer if you didn’t pity me or confess just to make me feel better about myself. I appreciate it Mark I honestly do but I would rather hurt than to have a relationship built off of pity and lies .’’

  Mark only looked at me with shocked eyes quite honestly he looked funny the way he kept gaping as well as opening and closing his mouth made him look insane but I knew he was only trying to find the right words.

‘’ Look at me Ethan ‘’ When I refused to look at him he gently lifted my chin forcing me to look at him. 

‘’ Ethan I can tell you this and I would never lie to you. This isn't out of pity I love you I love all your flaws and imperfections. I love all your curves, features, and everything in between. I've loved you for as I could remember and I’ll continue to do so for as long as you need because no one could ever take your place  I love you and only you. I've waited for you this long I can continue to wait.’’

  Tears welled up in my bright green eyes at Mark's confession it was so honest there wasn't a single lie I was able to detect. I-I….im just so happy and relieved so many emotions are running through me right now I’m not even able to process them all. I hugged him and after a moment his muscular arms wrapped around my thin frame. It felt so right the way his arms fit in all my curves it was like a puzzle piece as if this was meant to happen. I especially loved the warm feeling that came with Mark being near me. Shaking off feelings of uncertainty I mustered all of my courage and uttered one thing.

‘’ I ...I love you Mark ‘’

  I expected him to leave, yell, unfriend me, do something! Yet all he did was nuzzle his face in my neck and place a soft chaste kiss there.

‘’ I love you too my blue angel. ‘’

Time Skip

   It had been about a week since Mark and I had started dating it was amazing each and every second of it. He had long since found out about me skipping dinner and worries beyond belief he even cooks meals and makes sure I eat each and every one. The constant reassurance, love, and caringness I had received had been the best days of my life although I hate worrying him. I appreciate each and every second of it I appreciate Mark ….I absolutely love Mark he’s made my life so much better in every way.

  I had only saw darkness in my life and then Mark came into my life changing everything I had once known as my world evolved in color.

  Even though Mark and I had an amazing newfound relationship the hate comments would still come just not as frequently. We had both lost some subscribers but had also gained new ones which were mostly a bunch of Crankiplier fangirls. It made me happy to think that many people support our relationship and had even come up with a ship name.

  But I also couldn't help but have the feeling that I don’t deserve Mark many comments had said I was using Mark in every way possible …..that I’m only dating him for subscribers and that he deserves so much better. Yet he always brushed off all of my concerns. Whenever I brought up the subject he would cut me off by smothering me in multiple kisses and I would get lost in his mesmerizing deep chocolate eyes.

‘’ My blue smol bean!’’ I heard Mark ask from the living room.

‘’ Yes Markimoo ?! ‘’ I smirked knowingly because he had always hated the nickname he only allows me to call him it and even then it depends on what mood he’s in.

‘’ Baby come watch a movie with me ‘’ Even though I was all the way upstairs and he was in the living room I could practically hear the begging tone and see the adorable little pout he always had when something didn't go his way.

‘’ Fiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnneee I suppose but only because I love you so much ‘’ I said lovingly before joining Mark on the couch. As soon as I sat down next to him he propped me up and cradled me in his lap.

‘’ What do you wanna watch ?’’

‘’ Mmmhmmm I don’t care you can choose ‘’ I said while burrowing myself deeper in his lap. He nodded faintly before choosing The Flash on Cw.

As the show progressed I couldn’t help but think about the many comments. They were revolving in my head round and round never leaving me at peace. Mark seemed to sense my doubt because he took my hand in his own larger own and kissed it before proceeding to kiss my collarbone giving me chills.

‘’ I’ve told you, Ethan, you're perfect and I’ll dedicate my life to make you feel exactly what you are…...’’

He let a hot breathy whisper trail across my cheek before continuing.

‘’Absolutely perfect  .‘’

And for the first time in what seems like forever, I actually believed what Mark had said.

‘’ And you’ll always be perfect to me ‘’

[sasarahsunshine]

With this I am gonna take you up on your option to vent in your inbox. Because this makes me so happy I need to share this and you seem the kind of person that would love this. (Correct me if I am wrong, you can also just delete this, I am so sorry if this is overstepping)

So a few weeks ago we as a friend group moved in together because some of us study now while others still go to school (I should maybe mention that we are all the same age, the furthest is 10 months apart) so it was like the perfect timing and we have been waiting on this for years.

But one of our friends is autistic and the day we got to sign the papers she stopped talking and withdrew and no matter what we did we just couldn't get through to her but we still moved her in with us.

It didn't get better for weeks and we were terrified that we pushed her too fast too soon but a week ago she started talking again (very little and mostly through repeating what we say but by now she speaks her own words again) and to eat with us before she would just be in her room and when we would try convincing her to eat with all of us, she would start getting stressed out so it was mostly just one of us eating with her in her room and she slowly initiated contact again, like touching our hands, or leaning against us while she over the last weeks would keep as much distance as possible and just crawled into bed late at night with me and then in the morning go back to flinching away.

And Friday she got the whole train and bike ride to her school + the school day done and today we finally got to talk about routines and stuff and now it just feels like we all finally are completely moved in and it's just amazing because we always wanted this but we were scared that she is not okay.

I don't know but I needed to get rid of this because nearly every body we have been talking to was like "What did you expect moving in with her??" And putting the fault on her which is not the case, maybe others can't tell but we could tell that she was trying.

(Don't get me wrong: I am happy about her now being so good and not that she was suffering all this weeks. Believe me it broke my heart and there were a lot of tears of desperation shed. But I just love that no one at any point got angry at her or let his frustration out on her. )

I hope this maybe even cheers you up too, I read that you have been some moving going on too I hope it goes great. <3

Okay, this literally made me smile so much. You guys were so supportive and loving, and even when she was non-verbal and overwhelmed, you were so patient and never got angry.

You're a wonderful friend, and she's so lucky to have you! And I'm glad you have a good routine for her now, so she can feel comfortable being herself and being around you guys again <3

Just keep being patient and asking her what she needs <3 And keep being awesome and amazing!! <333

Also I totally just happy stimmed while reading this, so enjoy this gif of Markimoo doing the same <3

(This did cheer me up, thank you <3 My brother is moving in with us again after some very not-good things, and it's just been a very stressful time. He's almost all the way in now though, and we're almost done getting rid of old things and cleaning the house, so soon it'll be okay again).

“Mark? It’s one in the morning and this is the first time in months that I actually went to bed before midnight. Why are you calling so late?”

There’s a huff of indignation from the other end of the line and you flop onto your back, eyes fluttering closed as you listen.

“Well, excuse me for wanting to check in with my best friend,” his voice comes, as deep and soothing as always. There’s something else there, though. Something that makes your brow furrow as you bring a hand up to rub the sleep from your eyes.

“You never call to check on me,” you mumble back. “What’s wrong?”

He scoffs.

“Nothing’s wrong. Who said anything was wrong? I didn’t say anything was wrong. Why are you assuming something is wrong?”

You try to fight the smirk that pulls the corner of your mouth upward, but fail miserably in your sleep-addled state.

“I know you, Mark. Either tell me what’s wrong, or I’m gonna hang up on you and go back to sleep.”

There’s a momentary silence and then a sigh from the other end of the line.

“Alright, fine… I uh… I had a nightmare. Again.”

Your frown is immediate, and you push yourself into a sitting position as you try and blink away the fog of sleep and the last remnants of whatever dream you were having.

“Are you okay?” you ask as you reach to turn on the lamp on your bedside table. “Do you wanna talk about it, or do you need a distraction?”

“NO-” he answers, far too quickly. “No… I don’t wanna talk about it. And… I don’t think a distraction would help. Not this time.”

“Okay, then what’s up. How can I help?”

“Well… um…”

Mark rarely has reservations about speaking his mind, so his hesitation sparks worry in the pit of your stomach.

“What is it, bud? You can tell me,” you try and push.

“I don’t wanna try and go back to sleep… alone…”

A soft smile paints your lips and you chuckle quietly to yourself.

“Do you need me to come take care of you, Markimoo?” you ask, only half teasing.

Luckily, he knows you well enough to know that you’re only playing.

“Oh, shut up…. And yes. Will you come bunk with me tonight? I know it’s late, but-”

“Of course I will. Just give me like five minutes to get dressed and then I’ll be over in half an hour.”

You can hear the grin he’s wearing when he thanks you, and you take the opportunity to order him to go find some water before you each call each other a very rude name and then hang up.

You shake your head, smirk still present, and then crawl out of bed to pull on your pajamas.

Just over half an hour later, you pull into the driveway of Mark’s… rather oversized manor. It’s dark, despite being made mostly of white materials, and an eerie aura hangs in the air. Anyone and everyone who comes within viewing range of the mansion will tell everyone they know that it’s cursed/haunted and to stay well away. As they should. Mark doesn’t like strangers.

You, however, are not a stranger.

This is why you don’t bother knocking on the heavy, ornate front door before you push it open and step inside. The interior is dark, but you know your way around well enough that you don’t need the lights to be on to know where you’re headed and how to get there without ramming your shin into the edge of the antique table by the stairs.

“Mark, I’m here,” you call as you approach his room. He does have the hall light on for you, and his bedroom light is on as well, the door hanging open on its hinges. You peek your head around the door frame and grin when you see your best friend sitting upright against his headboard with his expensive silk bedding pulled around him so that all you can see is his face.

You snort as you step in, both hands behind your back to conceal the present you brought.

“Are you a turtle or a burrito this time?” you chuckle as you kick the door closed behind you.

He hums. “Not sure. Haven’t decided yet.”

As you get closer, you can see the dark bags beneath Mark’s eyes, his scraggly beard that clearly hasn’t been trimmed in a few days, and a few strands of black hair poking out from beneath the covers to hang over his face.

You stop and offer him a smile, possibly more pitying than you intended for it to be.

“You look like shit.”

“Thanks, it’s the nightmares.”

With a shake of your head, you step up to the side of his bed and reveal the gift.

“Brought you a teddy bear. He’ll fight off the monsters.”

You hold it out to him and he studies it for only a moment before his face lights up and one of his hands appears from out of the blankets to snag the plush. It disappears into his cocoon, and he curls around it.

“Scoot,” you order.

With some effort, he manages to wiggle over, allowing you room to sit beside him. Finally, he opens the blanket, though only long enough to absorb you into the safe little shell he’s made. He drapes it over your shoulders and then reaches in front of you to pull it closed again.

You squish yourself against him and he melts into you with a satisfied hum, comforted by your presence.

“Think you can get back to sleep?” you ask.

He tenses.

“Hey, it’s okay. I’m here. And I’m not going anywhere. I know they’re scary, but your nightmares can’t hurt you, and I’ll wake you up if you start to have one.”

He manages to press himself closer to you, almost hiding behind you.

“We can leave the lights on?” he asks meekly.

“Of course. The hall light is on, too.”

He’s silent for a few moments as he chews his bottom lip, and then he offers a nod, just barely. You wrap your arm around his waist and he rests his head in the crook of your neck.

“You don’t even have to lay down if you don’t want to. We can stay just like this.”

He nods again and twists so that he can pull his knees up and rest them in your lap.

“I’ve got you. Nothing's gonna hurt you anymore, Mark. Especially not while I’m here.” You smile. “And you’ve got a teddy bear to protect you now, too.”

You can feel him offer a smile to match yours.

“What are you gonna name it? The bear,” you ask, bringing your hand up from his waist to gently card your fingers through his hair.

He thinks for a moment, and then you feel his soft smile grow into a grin.

“I think I’ll call it Y/N... after someone I know that’s always there for me.”

Hi! I was wondering if I could get a ship for stranger things, it and a heist with markimoo? I'm 19, 5'7 and a curvy girl witu short brown hair (like Steve Harringtons) and have hazel eyes. I really love reading, writing poetry and stories and drawing. I'm mostly an energetic person, can be antisocial and stutter quite often and can he shy if I don't know a person. Thank you so much!!

I'd ship you with Bill (Both aged and young). You both were pretty antisocial at a young age, only hanging out with certain people. You two though, were always together and giving comfort to one another and make sure you were both okay. Ome thing you two would do together, is try and soeakxwithout stuttering once. Bill was glad that he had another person to support and love him. Even when you grew older together, you two would still be there for one another. You both love reading, and Bill would even let you read a sneak Peek of his new upcoming novel. He would take your criticism pretty well...especially on those shitty endings.

I'd ship you with Yancy (My boiiii). You two would be a cute couple in my eyes, always making sure to comfort one another and be there when one of you needs the other. Yancy loves you so much and is willing to do anything to keep you safe while you are both in prison or out (But he DONT WANNA BE FREEEEE XD). He loves to watch you write new poems and reads them...especially the ones you write about him❤😊. You both can be very energetic at times, always getting into some kind of commotion while in prison.

Lastly...I'd ship you with Steve. You're unlike any girl he has ever been with, and he loves how different you are from any of them. Steve loves to tell you how much he loves and cares for you...how glad he is to have you in his life. Steve absolutely loves watching you focus on your art, finding it cute too see how focused you are while working. Similar to Yancy, he loves seeing you energetic but also finds your shy and nervous side too cute.

♡ : Accidentally falling asleep together (Markimoo! Or Dark)

When Mark woke up the room was dim, he was confused so to speak. He didn’t remember falling asleep, must have been pretty whacked out from his day.

He frowns, shifting his body to hang onto whatever he was clinging to. Mark hums, not processing who he was holding onto.

He was just comfortable.

Think back to the last time (or a time) when you were in a fight with someone and just blurted out exactly what was on your mind. Did you somewhat regret saying what you said? What happened? When Mom hit me for a completely uncalled-for reason (I can't actually remember what it was, other than it was stupid as hell) last year, I said, "Oh, I can't wait to tell Alyssa (therapist) about this one," and she didn't reply or say another word to me for like hours, maybe not even that night. No, honestly, I don't regret it. You don't slap your fucking kid. Towards the end of your last relationship, how did you know it was over? How did you and your significant other change towards each other? (ex. not calling each other babe, baby, etc.) I wasn't opening up to him any further after four months, and I just didn't feel a romantic connection. I wasn't comfortable.

Have you ever had a significant other NOT believe you when you said “i love you” to them? Why was that? How did you react? No. Do opposites really attract? Have you ever experienced this? Explain. Sure, for some people. I've never been too attracted to someone too different from me. Has anyone close to you ever drifted away because they started hanging out with a new crowd? Did you try talking to them about it? What eventually happened? Story. Of my goddamn. Life. And only one, my former best friend. Just last year I finally reached out to her, and I guess we're "friends," buuut she only talks to me on her watch. I won't get into that. Have you ever found yourself heading on the wrong path? What happened? Probably, but idr. When did you last not feel accepted? Why did you feel that way? Ha, I'm sure recently. I just about always feel like that. Has anyone had to take your drink from you because you were drinking too much? How did you react? No. What’s your opinion on the world relying on technology too much and not paying enough attention to natural resources? Eek, there're positives and negatives. I totally believe it's possible someday for the singularity to happen, yet at the same time, technology is an almost perfect approach to many tasks, menial or complicated. Have you ever felt like it was just pointless to cry? Did you hold yourself back from crying or did you let it out? Sure, probably. I usually hold it back, typically far more frequently than I should, although on most occasions, crying just doesn't come. I just get a tight jaw and everything. Have you ever had a love/hate relationship with someone? Tell me about it. Meh, Colleen many times. I'm not delving into that story again. Has your pride ever gotten in the way of admitting that you felt weak or were in pain? How so? No. Whose lies have affected you the most? Jason's, although I'll give him enough credit that at the time of making them, he probably meant most/all of them. But they were still lies and broken promises. Have you ever dreamt in another language? No. Who was the last person you met and instantly liked? What about the last person you met who you immediately disliked or got bad vibes from? Hm. Oh, the girl who was in VR class with me. She loved my tattoo, so that sparked a brief convo, and she had awesome ones too. In class, she was funny and relatable and just in general had a very approachable personality. I wanted to talk more to her, but. Shyness and anxiety. ;_; For the other half of the question, I'm uncertain. I'm sure it was some man with my paranoia and distrust. What’s the most interesting news you read or received recently? What about the most depressing? I don't pay much attention to the news unless I just scroll past something on Facebook... and nothing's really coming to me. Ah, checked my FB real quick and I recently shared something about this crow couple that have been together for 12 years; the female has a broken beak, and her mate always feeds her. The most depressing was certainly a dog that was left out in the snow up north, and he was found dead and pretty much frozen in his doghouse. Pretty sure the owner was arrested. Thank fuck for the new law regarding pets being out in the cold. Would you let politics get in the way of a relationship? It would have to be a SERIOUS difference on a major matter that revealed deep, core beliefs. What is one thing someone could say that would automatically make you distrustful of them? I wouldn't mention you have a criminal record around me. I don't care what for unless it was seriously bullshit. What is one way in which you need to learn to control yourself? I need to STOP jumping to conclusions and becoming super defensive when I feel I'm in serious danger of being hurt emotionally. Do you have any friends who are on and off with bfs/gfs all the time? No. When was the last time you almost cried out of exhaustion? It was that and embarrassment. When I was at the airport to go home after visiting Sara, I fucked up in understanding the gate shit, carried my heavy bag ALL the way to the end, ALL the way back to the beginning, and then ALL THE FUCKING WAY BACK when I found the screen that told me my gate. At this same time, my knees were in awful condition and of course the sweating situation was goddamn humiliating. I'm very, very surprised no one asked if I was okay; I can only imagine how contorted and pained my face was, aaaand yay excessive sweating, I was literally soaked. I was very close to crying that day. What's a TV show you hate missing? None. The only situation where I'd be like that is if Meerkat Manor returned. What's a movie/book/TV show/band/whatever you highly recommend? Movie: Forrest Gump; book: Johnny Got His Gun; TV show: The Good Doctor; band: Otep is too underrated. Who taught you to tie your shoelaces? Dad first taught me the "wrong" way, then Mom corrected me in how you should properly do it. What's your favorite picture of yourself as a child? *shrugs* What is something people are surprised to hear about you? I've been told by many people that they're surprised to learn I have just about debilitating social anxiety. I always think I cover it awfully, but apparently I've adapted well enough to it that I can fake comfort decently, I suppose. What was the last bug you saw? Probably a fly, idk. Are there any people you know in real life that you only talk to online? Not off the top of my head... Is it cruel to keep a dog in a cage or tied up most of the time? No shit. About what things are you most selfish? Alone time. I need it. Are you camera shy? Why/why not? Yes, because odds are I will look like a blobfish out of water trying to smile but only succeeding in looking seriously high. What is the worst thing a former boyfriend/girlfriend has done to you? Dropped me like a boulder into a canyon and dashed off with zero intent of breaking up even nearly appropriately. Was anyone rude to you today (or yesterday, if you’re taking this early)? No. What was your favorite sleepover game? *shrugs* Have you ever swore in church? Possibly? Do you have memories from preschool? Some, yeah. Particularly of Christopher and some boy whose name I can't remember being pretty much obsessed with me and always chasing me in recess to hug the fuck out of me and apparently the other boy got in trouble all the time for trying to kiss me. Kinda recently in therapy we dug into my extreme fear of men, people being behind me, and rape (it's too a seriously unrealistic degree), and we think this mighta just been what sparked those fears so early. I also remember I was talkative at nap time, I brought the movie Antz for us to watch and everyone hated it, and I once brought my Snorlax plushy for show-and-tell. I remember making a gingerbread man tree ornament, too. Do you celebrate Earth Day?

They're the same for me. Are you comfortable talking to strangers? No. What’s the most boring game to exist? Why do you dislike it so much? I mean idk. Do you mean board games, card games, video games? I can tell you right off the bat I'm not a card game fan, almost ever. Do you lie about not having extra pens, so you don’t have to lend them?
