[drublaccthorn]

Kit, seeing Ghost!Livvy: wow, what is that on your face?

Ghost!Livvy : it’s make up

Kit : wait, ghost can wear make up?

Ghost!Livvy : of course, have you ever heard about expired make up?

Thank you for inviting me to help out with the Christmas show! Everyone and their horses did amazing, I really can't believe how much fun it was. Now that it's the new year, are you looking forward to doing even more for the kids? I know they really adore you. @docolives

[rragnaroks]

okay i know we all know OFMD has helped queer people not only feel seen but in other ways too. it's helped poc and neurodiverse folks and fat folks and disabled folks. i fit into most of those categories and i feel so seen and safe in this space.

but wanna hear a silly little way it's managed to help even my straight, neurotypical, tiny little sister cope with the world? to her OFMD was her sister's pirate brainrot show. then i made her watch it and to her, it's still just a funny, albeit heartwarming show.

but. she's no longer deathly afraid of gulls, because all gulls can be karl and livvy.

fucking amazing.

[isabelarcmero]

Heard you're going to be selling some of your clothes at the yard sale this weekend. Just out of curiosity, are you going to be selling that one cashmere sweater that I saw you wear once? If so, I might need to get to your table early. @docolives

[libbystcwart]

Did it hurt when you fell from heaven? Because you're looking like an angel tonight. Sorry, I couldn't help myself. But really, you look so astounding. I'm obsessed with the way your dress is shining under the lights. How've you been enjoyin' the Gala so far? @docolives

[chloenwckobiaarchive]

Staying busy is always good, especially as the weather gets nicer. There's nothing better than being able to spend your days in the sun. Of course, I wouldn't miss it! Now, I know I'm just getting used to it but I did have fun! Felt completely safe with your guidance. Kind of makes me wonder why I hadn't gone sooner, you know? I totally get why people say that horses are very good for your mental well-being.

Well hey, beautiful! It's going so well -- keeping me busy, for sure, but I'm not going to complain about that. I like it. And you know that you don't even have to ask, I would love for you to come to any of the ones that you want to be involved in! This morning had the most perfect weather for horseback riding, too, you know? Did you have fun?

[livvie-love-nikki]

Is the “gatekeeping Nikki” some sort of joke I missed out on? Like, I know a new Nikki game is coming out, but I don’t see how that warrants some of the reactions I’ve seen

Hooked On A Feeling

Chapter Twelve - Mr Ricciardo

Daniel is a Formula One driver, but, more importantly, he was a single dad to a wonderful little girl. He wants her to be a normal little girl, to have a normal social life, so he sends her to daycare. That was where she met Milo, her future best friend.

Milo's mother was incredibly stressed. She worked so hard to provide a good life for her son. But then he makes a new friend, a friend who has a hot dad (ofc they fall in love)

"So, tell me, why is it I have to wait for the neighbours boy to tell me that you've got a boyfriend?"

"Mum," Y/N tutted as she chopped the vegetables. "I haven't got a boyfriend, okay?"

Her mother sighed and she could picture her pinching the bridge of her nose out of frustration. "I've seen the clip. I've seen you kissing the man in the white suit."

Daniel, she was talking about Daniel.

"And, was that my grandson behind you? Do you know how heart breaking it is that this is the first time I'm seeing Milo?" Her mother continued.

Y/N rolled her eyes. But she was used to it by now, used to her mother berating her. "You've done this to yourself," she bit back. "You didn't want to support me when I was pregnant with Milo, so you don't have the right to know him." She pulled the phone away from her ear and ended the call.

She took just a moment to gather herself. Conversations with her mother always rattled her, but she couldn't bring herself to remove her mother from her life. Maybe one day she'd give her parents a chance to know Milo, she just wasn't ready for that yet.

"Momma," Milo called as he walked into the kitchen. He climbed into his seat at the table and placed his colouring book in front of him. It was a Formula One themed colouring book and Milo happily tried to colour in the Ferrari.

Y/N placed the vegetables into the pan with the already cooked chicken. "What is it, my little munchkin?" She asked as she sat opposite him.

Milo kicked his legs as he coloured in the number sixteen on the car. "Do you think Mr Ricciardo will take us to another race?" He asked.

Thank God Milo hadn't asked his mother why she had kissed Mr Ricciardo. He hadn't brought it up at all. But he had dragged Y/N away the moment Daniel had pulled away from her. And he had insisting on holding all of her attention on their way home.

She and Daniel hadn't had a moment alone since they returned home two days ago. They'd tried to text, but Y/N immediately went back to work and Daniel was training. Olivia was with her mother, so she didn't even see him when dropping Milo off at daycare.

"I don't know, munchkin," Y/N said as she pulled out her phone. "Would you like him to?" She texted Daniel as she waited for Milo to answer.

"No," he answered, and Y/N looked up.

She frowned at her son. "Why not, Milo? What's up, munchkin?"

Milo muttered something under his breath, something that Y/N couldn't hear. So she asked him to say it again. "I don't want you to date Mr Ricciardo, momma! You won't have time for me if you date him," he muttered under his breath.

Suddenly Y/N stood up. She walked around the stable and stood at Milo's side. "Oh, munchkin," she whispered as she knelt down beside him. She wasn't going to tell him about the text Daniel had just sent her, it would make him far too upset. "If your momma ever starts dating, she's not gonna have less time for you," she said as she pulled him close. "You'll always be my number one guy, even if I date Mr Ricciardo."

"Are you gonna date Mr Ricciardo?" Asked Milo as he swung his legs back and forth.

Y/N let out a sigh. "Mr Ricciardo has asked if I would like to go to dinner with him," she said as she stood up straight. "That means you get a sleepover with Livvy, and her grandparents are gonna look after you," she said and went back sorting dinner. "Are you okay with that, Munchkin?"

He thought about it for a moment. "Yeah, momma. Sleepover with 'Livia!" He cried and went back to colouring.

y/n (milo's hot momma)

tomorrow are you okay if milo stays with olivia and your parents?

daniel riiiiiciaaaardoooo

of course i'll let them know

She plated up dinner and placed on in front of Milo, putting his colouring book and pencils up on the counter. They didn't mention Daniel and Olivia for the rest of the night. As much as Milo said he was okay with it, Y/N still want' sure. So she didn't say anything.

***

She hadn't been out on a date since before Milo was born. Y/N didn't have any date clothes, which is why she went shopping on her lunch break.

There wasn't a lot she could afford, nothing too fancy. She searched through the shops for the entirety of the half an hour she had for a lunch break. It took a few attempts in a few different shops before she found the dress she'd wear out to dinner with Daniel.

It was black and fit to her body. She skirt was short, with a tiny, little slit on the side. Nothing like what anybody would expect to see her in, but she felt beautiful when she tried it on. It was going to be perfect for her date with Daniel.

It stayed in the back of the car while she completed her day at the office. It stayed in the back of the car when she picked Milo up from daycare.

She got Milo ready for his sleepover at the same time that she got ready for her date with Daniel. She showered as Milo packed away his toys.

For the drive over to his house, she was dressed down, wearing just her sweats. The dress only came out of her car when she and Milo walked up to the house. She kept it clutched tightly in her hands as they knocked on the door and waited for Daniel to answer.

"Milo!" He called the moment he opened the door.

"Mr Ricciardo!" Milo cried, attaching himself to his leg.

He offered Y/N a smile as she walked into the house. Immediately Daniel went to get Milo settled with Olivia while she went to the bathroom to get changed.

When she came out of the bathroom Milo was already comfortable with Olivia's grandparents, telling them his favourite facts about his favourite dinosaurs. He already had Rexy out and the beginnings of Jurassic park was playing on the television in the background.

"Munchkin," Y/N called softly from the doorway.

All eyes turned to her. At Daniels stare she felt herself become rather bashful. He muttered a 'wow' under his breath, but she didn't react.

But Milo still ran over to his momma. "Are you sure you're be okay here with Olivia and her grandparents?" She asked softly as she crouched down to his height (while still trying to keep herself dignified.

"Yeah, momma," Milo said. "Go and have fun." He sounded so grown up, she could have cried. She wrapped her arms around him for just a second before letting him run back to Olivia and her grandparents to tell them the rest of the facts he knew.

Daniel strode towards her and offered her his arm. "Shall we?" He asked. Looping her arm through his, she nodded her head, and they left the house.

She hadn't been on a date in so long, she had forgotten what they were like. Or, maybe no date she'd ever been on before was as good as this one.

Daniel was a perfect gentleman for the entire night. He opened doors for her, pulled out her seat for her, let her order whatever she wanted, and insisted on paying.

Dinner was incredible. The food was good, the drinks were good, and Daniel was even better. She tried to argue with him about the payment, but Daniel wouldn't let her. There was no way he was letting Milo's hot momma pay on the first date.

That night she confessed to him what her dreams were. It wasn't something she liked talking about, not since having Milo. It wasn't that she didn't pursue her dreams because of Milo, but she was a single mum who had moved across the country. She didn't have the time or the money for dreaming.

"I hate to say it," she began as they walked back out to the car, hands joined, swinging between them. "But I'm actually enjoying a night off from parenting."

"Don't feel bad," Daniel said as he pulled open the passenger door for her. But Y/N shook her head. Aside from her little comment, it wasn't something she wanted to talk about. If anything, she wanted to get back to Milo.

Daniel shut the door and climbed into the drivers seat. "Come on," he began. "We've got one more stop before we head home."

"We do?"

Daniel couldn't help the grin that crossed his face. He started the car and began driving, heading away from the restaurant. The further they drove the less busy the roads got. The city lights soon faded but Daniel kept driving.

It was only when they were in the middle of nowhere that he stopped. Out here they could see the stars. "Wow," she whispered as she opened the car door and stepped out. Her outfit wasn't really suited for the cool night air, and she wrapped her arms around herself as she leaned against the hood of the car.

"Have I told you that you look really good?" Daniel asked as he sat beside her. He placed his arms around her shoulders and pulled her into his side.

She couldn't stop her giggle as she allowed herself to rest against him. "Yes, Daniel. Several times." She looked up at the stars with her head on his shoulder. "Thank you, Daniel. You also look great."

He was in a simple pair of jeans and white shirt. But damn did it suit him.

She couldn't stop herself from grabbing his hand and tracing her fingertips over his tattoos. "Tonight has been amazing. I don't think I've been on a date since I was maybe seventeen," she confessed.

"We're gonna have to make up for lost time," he said, leaning his face closer to hers.

He was addicting, and she couldn't help but find herself drawn to him. Drawn in close enough to kiss him. His hand was cupping her cheek, fingers pushing stray hairs behind her ear.

Just like kissing Daniel the first time, it was amazing. He quite literally took her breath away. But neither of them wanted to pull away, not until they were desperate. Even then, Daniel still rested his forehead against hers. "Be mine," he whispered, his lips almost touching hers again.

She couldn't stop herself from stealing another kiss. "Not until I take you on a date, Mr Ricciardo," she said smugly.

Mr Ricciardo. He liked the sound of that.

stare at the crash

Content warning? A vaguely disturbing description of love.

“Then tell me, Kit. Tell me why. Tell me why you’ll leave a room the moment I enter and then kiss me like that. Tell me why you’ll call me ‘Centurion Blackthorn’ and pretend we’re perfect strangers, then nearly kill the first man who dares say I’m a freak. Tell me why – no, tell me how you can say you wish we had never met, but you’ll send me a special edition of fucking Sherlock Holmes for fucking Christmas and give me your dead mother’s necklace without my even asking – all while not saying a single fucking word to me about it. Because that’s just it: You never talk to me, Christopher.”  The glint of Ty’s eyes darked to a silver metallic with rage, a shade of gray so sharp Kit wanted to flay himself open so Ty could see the calamitous inner workings of just how relentlessly Kit’s heart beat for him.  “You promised me. You promised me, Kit, that you wouldn’t let me be the punchline to another joke I didn’t even know was being made. But you lied! You lied, and I can’t begin to fathom why, and the whole time you keep jerking me around on these stupid, stupid strings because you know I would go anywhere you want me to.” And –  Kit had not known that.  “Tell me something true, Kit.” And – oh, that was desperation leaking into Ty’s voice. It danced with his anger until all the fiery causticity bled from Ty’s next sentence. “Please, Christopher.”  A more honest man would have said that Kit was hopeless when it came to all matters Tiberius Nero Blackthorn. A more honest man would have admitted every visage of Ty rang with such sharp clarity in Kit’s head that not a single conversation or swallow of an Adam’s apple could escape it, because Kit’s memory – Kit’s everything – was a steel deathtrap that clung with nothing short of vicious fervor to Ty Blackthorn, that the ferociousness with which he cherished – adored – worshiped that man was implacable and shred any semblance of proper sense Kit may have ever possessed.  And –  – that was just it, wasn’t it? This whole thing was entirely nonsensical, yet the notion did nothing to quell Kit’s raging addiction. Kit would die for – would kill for – would live for Ty Blackthorn, because although Livvy had been half of Ty’s soul, Ty was every self-loathing molecule of Kit’s heart. For the boy who had held a knife to Kit’s throat, and for the man with a gaze of steel, Kit would gouge out his own heart and serve it on a silver platter, because it had only ever belonged to him to begin with. And if he was so willing, maybe Ty would allow himself to fall apart on the serrated edges of Kit’s shattered composure and allow their blood to linger and amalgamate for an eternity. Forever. But because Kit was not a more honest man, because Kit had grown up on the streets of the LA Shadow Market with nothing but a con for a father and a proclivity for keeping secrets, all he said was: “I love you. I’m sorry.” 

[whaliensdream]

I feel like "I Love You, I'm Sorry" by Gracie Abrams is such a KitTy coded song 😭

Two Augusts ago

I told the truth, oh, but you didn't like it, you went home

— Ty telling Kit that he has to ressurect Livvy and Kit leaving for his new home.

Two summers from now

We'll have been talking, but not all that often, we're cool now

— KitTy at the start of TLKOF maybe? When Kit's done staying mad at Ty and they're trying to be cool with each other.

You were the best but you were the worst

As sick as it sounds, I loved you first

I was a dick, it is what it is

A habit to kick, the age-old curse

— Idek if it's Kit to Ty or Ty to Kit after everything that happened at the end of QOAAD?? Both of them were really special to each other and both of them really hurt one another, even if unintentionally... And as sick as it sounds (especially to Kit), maybe Ty actually fell in love with Kit first!!

I love you, I'm sorry

— Both of them to each other because I feel like once they finally have an honest conversation, they're gonna feel really sorry for not communicating properly 😭

randomly picking through the books is so fun because you stumble upon small details that you don’t think twice about reading but have greater implications when you do. like how Helen and Mark stayed up the night of Livvy’s death talking about his love life 😭😭

in a way it makes sense given they probably couldn’t sleep after everything & it was probably apart of a larger conversation about everything that had happened to the both of them but also…. your brother’s literally begging to have his emotions turned off rn lmao

side note it's funny how Mark spent like two books being a steel trap about Kieran & the Hunt and not sharing anything upfront about his feelings but the minute Helen shows up she knows it all. every messy detail. yes it makes sense given they were closer before & she Gets It but he literally went to great lengths to ensure the others didn't even know Kieran existed in the beginning like damn 😭 livvy would've eaten it up too like a faerie prince is crazy in love with you??? she's gonna start planning the wedding immediately

[tys-kitty]

Okay but the TWP gang will probably end up in Thule, right? And this means that Ty will meet Thule!Livvy who may also help him letting go of Ghost!Livvy. However, imagine upon their arrival, Kit and Ty have a conversation in their room about her, that kind of goes like this:

Kit: Are you all right?

Ty: I don‘t… Everyone expects me to…

Ty *slumps on the bed and takes a deep breath*

Ty: She just isn‘t my Livvy

Kit *drops to his knees before his boyfriend*

Kit: No, she isn‘t. But she‘s also a person who knows what‘s it like to lose your twin and the person you have loved more than anything else in the world. And that has to count for something, doesn‘t it?

[1indigoisles]

Like, why aren't more people talking about this teaser?

His face crumpled. "He hates me," he said. "All I do is love him, but he hates me, he just hates me, I don't know why."

LIKE? This is so clearly TLKOF Ty talking to Dru (not Livvy, because she disappears in TLKOF, convince me otherwise) about Kit! Presumably this is towards the end of TLKOF where both Dru's and Ty's romantic lives and the world in general are in chaos. And this is just a sweet, heart-breaking sibling moment between them where they talk about how everything is messed up and how the people they'd loved had broken their hearts. Since they were away from each other, it would be news to Dru that Ty was in love with Kit, and it would be news to Ty that Dru had given her heart to someone Ty had barely heard of.

Like, just imagine THAT conversation. I'm interested in their dynamic so much because Dru and Ty are going to make a different sibling pair than what we're used to. They weren't close enough to fully understand each other when they were younger. Ty always seemed like the cool older brother to Dru, what with him being so smart and knowing so much about so many things. Dru, on the other hand, was the gothic younger sister, with an inexplicable love for vintage horror and a criminal edge that impressed Kit Herondale, who basically had crime etched in his DNA. But they always protected each other. Like, it was given.

And when I think about all that and try to imagine their special moments, I just can't anymore. *cries inconsolably*

[winesharksea]

i think it's important that kit appears to straight up not know how to have a genuine conversation with someone. and a lot of that has to do with how he was raised, isolated with nobody really asking for his input or opinions, but for most of tda even when he's speaking to somebody he's rarely actually sharing his thoughts. and on top of that he's SUCH a people pleasing character, like beyond the initial snark he pretty much goes along with whatever people want or expect from him just for their attention or to make them happy. and on top of THAT, i think that tda is probably his first experience as like... a person among equals? i don't think it really occurs to him that the things he does or doesn't do impact other people because that's never been the case before, and obviously it leads to disaster but like i think he still just does not understand that his decisions affect people because he feels irrelevant and out of place among them. he can't feel accountable for the ways his choices affect other people because he just does not understand that he has the ability to affect people at all.

and like on ty's side i think even before the resurrection attempt he's very given to self blame, like when livvy gets hurt at the shadow market and he immediately blames himself for the injury. he feels an immense amount of responsibility to both livvy and to the rest of his family, and so many of his actions post-tda are rooted in this idea that he needs to do penance for the failed spell. (and here i'm also going to blame magnus a little for being really unnecessarily harsh at the end of tda when from everything preceding kit is literally just fleeing the country out of embarrassment and not really anger.) but he doesn't blame kit for lying to him or randomly dropping a love confession at him at possibly THE most inopportune time, he immediately put that back on himself and blames himself for being the reason kit left. there's also a lot to be said here about processing the world as an autistic person among an insular society of people who don't have the vocabulary or information to help you even when they want and try to, and how that affects the way you see your relationships with other people. ty doesn't blame kit for lying or running away because it does not occur to him that the fault lies with anyone but himself.

(also now i'm going to blame ragnor a LOT because listen if i was a 15 year old and traumatically lost someone i cared about i would probably not be making A+ decisions either but this man is a whole adult and also said not one word to anybody in a position to stop them or at least keep an eye on them)

so like at the end of the day i feel like so much of tda is about characters being so caught up in their own spirals of shame or self-doubt or pain that they don't notice what's happening to the people around them until it's already happened, and that even the people who love you will not always do it perfectly or even well, but as for these two hopefully that's the character growth we'll see in twp- kit now having a baseline of familial love, being an older brother, and finding self-worth to the point where he can hold himself accountable for the things he does and recognize his responsibility to other people, and ty growing in confidence and trusting himself enough to realize he doesn't have to punish himself or shoulder so much blame and that he can acknowledge when other people have not done right by him.

[wikitpowers]

what if we get a scene of ty overhearing a conversation kit is having with someone about "wanting someone he can't have" and he thinks kit is talking about livvy I WOULD ACTUALLY COMBUST
