lovely vision.
pairing: steve harrington x reader
summary: the one where people can tell when steve thinks about you and mike can't whisper. [1.1k]
warnings: fluff, unrequited-to-requited-love, gender-neutral!reader
✮⋆˙ ★⋆。 °⋆ 𖤐⭒๋࣭ ⭑
In hindsight, he really played himself, hoping his super-observant, super-loud, no-boundary-having friends wouldn’t say anything. He couldn’t tell if that made it better or worse.
It’s one thing for Steve Harrington, self-proclaimed Halloween hater, to not mind when other people decorate his space. That can just be written off to him being polite and kind, even though Dustin would scoff at that and Eddie would laugh and Mike would call him out on the word “polite” being anywhere near his name.
The point is, being around other people’s decorations had some kind of plausible deniability. Him putting up Halloween decoration himself, however, there’s no deniability in that.
“What’s that?” Dustin asked as he slid into the backseat of Steve’s BMW, pointing at the ghost charm that dangles from the rearview mirror. Steve offered (read: was blackmailed) into driving the boys from the Wheelers house to the arcade even though they had perfectly functioning bikes. But then Dustin said they were teaching you how to play some game whose name he couldn’t remember and he definitely didn’t want you walking all that way, and since he was going that way anyways….
“Nothing,” Steve snapped back, staring straight ahead. Hopefully that would be the end of it and no one would s—
“Doesn’t look like nothing,” offered Mike, the traitor. His hair was long and in his eyes, like Eddie’s, but Steve could still feel the suspicious, almost accusing glare through the mess. “Looks like a decoration.”
Steve rolled his eyes. “It’s just an air freshener. I know teenage boys stink but you guys know what that is.”
“A ghost air freshener,” Lucas said, right in his ear. Steve had half a mind to kick him out, but he’d already started driving to your house and he didn’t want to be late. “That’s for Halloween, and you hate Halloween. You always buy those dumb trees.”
“Why are you paying so much attention to my spending habits?”
“Because they’re terrible.”
Steve glared at him through the rearview mirror (the traitor). “Don’t think I won’t make you walk.”
Your house was pretty close to the Wheelers and already decked out, considering Halloween was at the end of the month and it was only October first. Fake, giant spider webs stretched up the front yard to the porch, and pumpkins and Halloween decorations dotted almost every inch. Your house looked like it was out of a cartoon about the Addams family and your outfit matched it, all black and muted colors. Your smile, though, that made Steve feel like he’d sipped pure sunshine.
You slid into the passenger seat, your designated spot (to no one’s surprise and to your complete obliviousness). “Oh a little ghost! He’s so cute! Is he for Halloween?”
“Yeah, Steve,” Dustin asked with a shit-eating grin on his face. “Is he for Halloween?”
Rock and a fucking hard place. “Uh, yeah. It looked like it would fit the vibe, you know, and it smells nice.” Which wasn’t a lie. Steve genuinely did like the way it smelled, and the thought of you smiling at him the way you were now (warm, bashful, a little endeared) made the fact that it was a ghost a good thing.
You were endeared, maybe a few shades more than that. Steve’s indifference to Halloween was a well-known fact in the merry band of nerds (their name) that he chose to hang out with. Robin still talked about the year she got him to decorate his house with one (just one!) skeleton like it was a badge of honor. Now here he was, Levi jeans and orange sweater, with a ghost dangling from his car, glancing at you with a smile as he pulled into the arcade parking lot.
Maybe Mike thought he was quieter than he was; maybe he just wanted to ruin Steve’s life specifically. Either way, the entire car heard him over the radio when he murmured, “Man you really do turn into the people you love.”
Steve flushed and turned around so fast that you would be concerned about whiplash if you weren’t replaying what Mike said over and over again. People you love. “Alright, go play your damn games.”
None of the boys said anything, Mike looking almost uncharacteristically apologetic through the window. You smiled out at Dustin and said, “I’ll meet you guys in a few minutes, okay?” You could almost feel the man beside you turn into a statue.
“Okay.” He glanced between you and Steve nervously but ultimately chose to follow Mike and Lucas, leaving the two of you staring after the arcade door as it shut beside him.
“I’m sorry he said that,” Steve said almost frantically, eyes locked on the steering wheel so he didn’t have to see whatever horrible embarrassed look was on your face. “Mike never really knows when to shut up and he’s an instigator. He’s an idiot, actually. I’m really sorry; I can take it down if you want and —“
Your hand on his bicep shocked him into silence, and when he looked up at you, you were smiling like he’d given you a gift. “I don’t want you to take it down, Stevie.”
“What?”
“I don’t want you to take it down,” you repeated, “I like it. Why are you saying sorry for liking me back?”
“Because I don’t want to — pause. Did you say back?”
You laughed, and it was the best sound Steve had ever heard in his life. He wanted it bottled up for him only, the only thing sustaining him for the rest of his life. “Eddie kept saying I was really obvious.”
“He kept saying that to me too,” Steve replied. “He’s just stupid.” He wasn’t entirely sure what’s happening, but you were still looking at him. Your hand fell onto his, right on the console, and relief burst inside his chest, a cool relief like a sip of water when you were parched.
Liking him back. What the fuck?
“I don’t think either of us are much better right now.”
His hand, of its own volition but also because it knew if he didn’t do this he would never forgive himself, cupped your cheek, and he didn’t even have time to ask before you said, “yes,” and leaned in. And he was kissing you.
Steve Harrington was kissing you like he needed it to breathe, like it was the difference between him being able to keep going or crumble right then and there. Steve Harrington liked you back.
You parted, and fell back into each other once, twice, before he pulled away far enough that he could talk. He whispered, “If those kids come out here and stop me, I’ll strand them, I swear.” Your answering laugh felt like absolution.

jellicle lineups; part 2/4
MOREEEE !!! MOREEEE !!!
rumpleteazer | 💰 🍹 🃏
PIGTAILS RUMP! PASTEL RUMP. blond rump. that is all. i really love that design. so i use it. the face markings are also meant to look like a stereotypical robber mask. i realized she looks a little fox-like while drawing her, which i didnt mind ! its fun !
her clothing design was already laid out for her so i left it virtually unchanged, asides from the pattern itself. imagine wearing clothes w a print of your best friends hair . that is rumpleteazer
even though 1 of her 3 words are impressionable, i think she is smarter than she lets on. i also think skimbleshanks is her dad. she'd be about 21 in human years
mungojerrie | 💸 🎰 🍾
PIGTAILS JERRIE AS WELL, BITCH ! i saw a jerrie w pigtails after i drew this and i felt so vindicated. i also based his design directly on 2019 mungojerrie because ommgggg transgender calico? trans little calico? i thought he deserved some pearls too. as well as a bell collar! it makes cats sneakier.
his clothing design is left unchanged too, asides from some fluff. he is also wearing a print of his best friends hair . smile 😃
hes just a funny fella. he totally doesnt have a history or anything. hed be 21 in human years
coricopat | 🍷 🔮 ♟
coricopat is pretty close to their replica design—the biggest difference being that the red in their design is warmer/purpler. that and the silver collar! i also had no idea what i was doing with her fit, so expect it to change in the upcoming art i do of him. i just wanted something gothy and flowy
hes also based on thalia, the muse of comedy. to keep the greek mythology theme going, and because i thought it was funny, and because (2x) i like... The Gimmick
i swear to god this cat knows things we dont. hed be like 22 in human years
tantomile | 🎭 🍩 🗝
tantomile is also close to his replica design. she has a gold collar. like i said w/ coricopat, the outfit is subject to change
as she was based on melpomene, the muse of tragedy, i decided to sacrifice identical makeup for the white mark on their muzzle being downturned like the frown of the tragedy mask :] giggle. smile
listen to all advice tantomile gives you. shed be also like 22 in human years
george | 🥏 🧋 🛹
i just had to give this (technical) swing some love. bless this happy background cat and his little :D smile. i decided to give him a simple little fit and made his fur/markings less plain white w some stripes. i think i also based his makeup off a victor costume ??
i think hes pouncival's older brother. hed also be 23 in human years
mr. mistoffelees | 🪄 ☕ 🌬
my silly, my funny. my little guy. i based their general Vibe on his john napier concept art, obc mistoffelees, 1990 paris mistoffelees, 2019 mistoffelees, and like. a fairys kiss of brentoffelees. i wish id have given him a bit of that il sistina style but i already had so many things going on LOL
it was definitely a very fun challenge to balance all of these. i also draw attention to the single white shoe—the cutest detail of timmy scotts misto
i definitely prefer a more visually unnerving, grown misto. and absolutely torn between portraying him as mute or verbal because on one hand... mute misto is so good. on the other hand.... oh my god. timothy scotts voice.jesus christ . i think hed be 23 in human years
the rum tum tugger | 🎤 🍽 🪞
WELCOME TO MY TWISTED WORLD. i really tried to keep tugger as cis guys i really did. but the thrall of a visually transgender tugger was too much to ignore. i already explained a lot of his design choices in my first posted drawing of it but like... blauhh... thigh garter, heart, golden whiskers/lashes. they are there. i also made his makeup a wee more theatrical w/ white on the chin to visually separate him from partridges tugger
i also decided to base his fur more on his obc design. like. terrence mann tugger. platinum blond spotted mane and head fur and such. i think it looks really good
im trying to hit the sweet spot between the goofy/serious/whiny/promiscuous portrayals of the him..... the man contains multitudes, you see. hed also be like 24 in human years and it goes without saying that hes one of deuts sons
AND THATS IT. stay tuned for more !

Looking back through TVD, I’m realizing Bonnie doesn’t really have a set personality when it comes to wardrobe. And it goes reflect on her personality or vibe. And I think that Kat Graham has such a nice figure that wasn’t emphasized on the show as well. So let’s fix that shit.
Let’s clear the elephant in the room and talk about her hair. Having fucked up hair being a black girl is TRAUMATIZING. I have too many memories of that shit. And I think Bonnie would’ve not had her hair straight like.. at all. Let alone wigs and tracks.
I think Bonnie would’ve preferred being natural. Specifically in like a low bun, low ponytail or having her fro more out. She would definitely have a lot of scarves and headbands.
And if she gotta fight some vampires n shit, she gonna need a protective style. And I feel like she would go with a braided bob like small braids.
Now onto clothes. I think like season 1, her style would be similiar to Elena’s. However I think Bonnie would wear more like Jean jackets, belts and earrings and necklaces that she probably thrifted.
Then when we get to like season 2 through like 6, I think Bonnie would adopt more of a bohemian/street style, with a lot of dark red colors, and browns with a touch of blue and purple. She would definitely broaden in accessories like beaded necklaces and purses. And Bonnie would love to show her shoulders and collarbone a lot. Her favorite pants would be bootcut or something with a baggy look to make her hips look a little bit wider. Her tops would be form fitting but she would often have like a sweater or a patterned cardigan. She definitely loves thrifting, and I think this style kind of leans more into that witch vibe/aesthetic.
And in like season 7 and 8, she would lean more into a boho elegant type of vibe. Like dark feminine energy a little bit. She would wear more corset type of tops, and yes those shoulders are exposed. But most importantly, she would start wearing more long skirts that are freeing and loose.
Bonnie did NOT wear enough formal dresses for meeee. I think she would’ve preferred simple dresses but with subtle patterns on them and with a muted color pallette. Remember, she loves her shoulders out, so they would be definitely spaghetti strapped and the dresses would be more form fitting.
IT IS A SHAME that Bonnie didn’t get to go to the Mikaleson ball, and I think about it every day. But I think this is what she would’ve worn. Either black, or a cream colored white, or even a muted red. Again, subtle patterns. Simple but still eye catching, and YES SHOULDERS OUT. And I feel like she play with lace a little bit to show a more sexier sensual side to her style.

my controversial opinion on knightcore fashion
or: how to dress like a knight on a daily basis without any armor so, you're a knight just like me. you're chivalrous and noble. you want some adventures, medieval literature and a sword. maybe you even want to date a prince or a princess! that's cool and then, you're searching for "knightcore fashion" to incorporate your aesthetic into your daily life and... there's nothing that fits quite right.
img src: Rachel Maksy on youtube pinterest outfits are cool, but they are too much medieval-ish? historically accurate? LARP-ish? not suitable for school and office? that's bugs me a lot and then there's amazing @/donttesstme on tiktok, that does "workspace fantasy fits" series. that's more like it, but she hasn't done a knight part yet
well, here's my take on "how to dress like a modern knight without an armor, a sword and without expensive accessories"
important note: this advices may look a little weird and confusing at first. that's okay, and I'm going to explain why: I'm doing character design for years, and I really like fashion. armorless and swordless knights are impossibly hard to design, because their key features are... armor and sword. that's what makes them recognizable. without these components an outfit may look confusing and dull alas, swords are expensive, and armor may look a little weird on you while studying. that's why I'm going to tell you how to include some secondary knighcore motifs into your outfit. it may be subtle, but the intention makes it all 1. gather some inspiration: firstly, think about yourself, your current personal style and identity. this is important, because all knights are different maybe you're a kind, noble person with a strong moral code, who prefers light clothes and golden color? then maybe paladin archetype is going to be the best for you maybe you're a pessimistic gamer goth person, and you want to keep that. then think about your favorite gothic brutal knights from dark fantasy games maybe you just like bright colors? search for some art of medieval joust armor, it's actually colorful maybe your favorite knight is Link, maybe you're the Geralt of Rivia type of person. everyone is different, so gather some unique inspiration pictures.
2. learn the basics any fashion mf knows, that there's several components of an outfit: 1. color pallete 2. silhouette 3. pattern 4. materials 5. styling (the way you put and combine items) and that's where you gonna need your inspiration pictures. analyze them, think of what's important. ask yourself questions: do I like the dark pallete? is this knitted material reminds me of something like a chain mail? does these tall boots look adventurous to me? maybe I want a bulky scarf? write it down and keep that in mind. congrats! this is your personal definition of what is knightcore fashion.
3. op's definition of knightcore fashion personally, I think that "casual knightcore" is more like an adventurecore subtype. for me, clothes like that supposed to be utilitarian and sporty, because knights tend to explore, fight with monsters and go on great adventures. I would go for hiking vibes and comfortable pieces I also would prefer to have some brown, beige and grey neutrals paired with muted green, red of dark blue. grey, metallic and silver are probably the main color for my dream casual knightcore wardrobe I wouldn't mind to add some whimsical fantasy elements, but in a subtle way. like bulky metallic jewelry with nature motifs, accessories like chunky combat boots and belts. maybe a cool DIY-ed unicorn embroidery on a jacket or pair of dagger earrings. jewelry supposed to be like a sentimental token from a lady or an artifact from a long journey also, ribbons, lace and fishnets are somehow knightcore to me?? like, recently I crocheted a oversized brown shrug for myself, and it screams chain mail in conclusion: generally, I would recommend search for some muted and natural colors, metallic jewelry, comfortable clothes for hiking, tall boots, tunik-shaped oversized shirts and huge scarfs. this is my vision of "modern knight" clothes, your vision may be different maybe I'm taking this far too serious anyway, hope that helps

FNAF The Silver Eyes Adaption (WIP)
The main four: Carlton Burke, John Gorodetsky, Charlotte “Charlie” Emily, Jessica Riley
(Long comments under the cut!)
So update: I’ve been held back by college this year from making progress for this project. I’m in the process of sketching right now, and thankfully, I have a solid script to work with. I’m still debating whether I should make Charlie an Asian-American or not, but I’m loving their designs so far! I also made their colors more muted to fit on the vibes I’m going for with this comic.
As for the changes I made…
With Charlie:
As I said, she’s most likely going to become Asian-American in this comic. No specific reason for this change other than I just get bored of drawing characters of the same euro-centric ethnicity.
No, we’re not doing the robot thing.
Let’s give her trauma so bad, she had selective amnesia instead
Self-loathing club Member #1
She’s 18 in my adaption
With John:
The sweetest boy you’ll ever know. He just wants to be there for you, dude.
Russian-American
Also 18
With Jessica:
The baddest bitch on the block.
She’s more motherly-type now on top of being the leader, and the only active braincell in the group
Have an ever-lasting beef with Carlton (she still cares for him tho)
She’s 19, which is maybe the reason why she’s acting more mature than the others?
With Carlton:
Aw man, he legit became my favorite character in this iteration
Irish-Mexican
Self-loathing club Member #2
Beefs with Jessica for shits and giggles.
Has an even bigger beef with Dave (serious)
I gave him trauma so bad, the tea was BOILING with his family by the end of the series
The plot:
As I said, no cyborg Charlie concept! Definitely no Baby appearance too! I’ll add other characters from the games to substitute for Baby’s omission, can you guess who they were? 👀
Carlton plays a bigger role in my iteration, but I’ll make sure to give everyone a spotlight in the plot!
I tried not to cut as much from the original novel as I did, but I rearranged and added more dialogue into their interactions! I’ll be honest, I may have indulged myself a little too much with the (lowkey) found-family dynamic I gave them
Can I say how much of a babygirl Dave is in my script? No? Awww. Ok :(
My brain is too fried to think of what other changes I made in the plot but my ask box is open right now if you guys are curious about my fan-comic! I’m going to upload Dave, his assistant, and some plot-relevant info dump next (hopefully)!

New blog, new username so I guess this redesign I've had in the works for a while was quite fitting....
A few things motivated this redesign:
I wanted to change Kaname's hairstyle. While the ponytail and bangs framing her face had become very iconic for her, I was craving a refresh and to try out giving her a hairstyle that allowed it to be mostly lose and pulled away from her face. I tried out a few different sketches an finally settled on this partially pulled back into a twisted bun reminiscent of how I draw Mito's hairstyle. It definitely gives off a more feminine 'princess-vibe' as well, which I don't mind. I find other parts of the design balances the less practical parts of it with practical ones.
--The plain gold hair pin is very similar in design to how I draw Mito's pins as well. Can also be used as a weapon in a pinch.
--Plum blossom kanzashi. plum blossom are requiring theme for Kaname. They represent resilience and perseverance, courage, beauty and longevity.
Next up was me wanting to try and solidify a more consistent color scheme for her. I tried out many variations, initially going with pastel pinks that 've been draw towards, but eventually realized that it did not go well with her skin tone. The more yellowish olive greens and beiges, both muted and darker, did work tho! I've liked the green for Kaname for some time, so I decided to keep working with that.
I think it turned out really good! It has a mature and elegant vibe to it while still staying in the realm of Senju with the greens and beige and the hakama. It works well with the gold and wood-tone accessories too.
The top is inspired by the Chinese Mo Xiong, a type of undergarment worn with certain types of hanfu. I draw lots of inspiration from Chinese hanfu for Uzumaki fashion, so this top may be another thing Kaname's picked up from her mother. (it's also a bit sassy with the open back~ )

In regards to Miraculous Gaang animals:
-Sokka: I was thinking just Captain Beetle, especially since it sounds vaguely close to Captain Boomerang, which is an appropriate title for Sokka but also not because it's also the name of a DC villain who killed Tim Drake's dad (and it doesn't have ladybug theming). I definitely think use Captain though, because I am now attached to Sokka having Cap as a nickname.
-Katara: So there are actually several species of big cats that like and excel in the water. One of them is the jaguar, and black jaguars do exist. Jaguars also have lots of night and water symbolism associated with them. I'm not the best with names, but I think Midnight Jaguar, Black Jaguar, Painted Jaguar, or maybe Inky Jaguar could all work for her. (Also, look up fishing cats. They're useless for this au because they don't come in black, but they're a cross between otters and bobcats and they're insane).
-Suki: ML got it right here actually because very many species of vipers are blue or teal, so I'd stick with that. For some reason my brain is getting stuck on Viperious (instead of imperious), but some other half baked options could he Velvet Viper, Silk Viper, or Vypertime (instead of hypertime),
-Zuko: Seriyu is the blue dragon spirit of Japan that represents the east and springtime. Spring represents new beginnings which is fitting for Zuko, and could provide a fun connection/contrast with Iroh's whole Dragon of the West thing. Otherwise I got nothing.
-Toph: I like the Blind Tiger too much to come up with anything else, lol. My brain said "yup that's perfect the naming machine is now off for her." Sorry if you were hoping for more options.
-Azula: I think her blue flames are significant, so I think basing her off an arctic fox, a silver fox, a blue morph fox, or maybe even a cross fox. Actually, yeah screw it, cross fox Azula. Duality, being split between red and dark gray/blue coloring as she's conflicted with her loyalty to Ozai/the fire nation and her own unique individual wants and needs. Being part blue connects her to Blue Dragon!Zuko too. I'm thinking that her costume is similar to the one in the show but if it was more flowy and elegant and less armory and intimidating. So like, the layered panels thing she has going on can stay, but more thick cloth traveling layers and less rigid armor. Instead of the big leather flaps she has like a poncho or a shawl. She's already got the cross fox coloring motif of big black middle panel and red side panels, and we obviously have to add her skirt tunic being pulled back into a coat tail. Keep the loose pants and the pointed boots for the theatre vibes. I'm thinking her mask is sort of like a masquerade/theatrical fox mask that covers the whole top half of her face and has fox ears but leaves the bottom open. Names. . .uh? Yeah I'm bad with these. Vixen?
-Yue: Also nothing, so sorry.
-Jin: Homegirl appears in one episode, we can go hog wild with her (pun intended) and do whatever we want. I'm thinking basing her off a wild boar and not a farm pig. I want her whole "chipper jubilant" hero thing to be more "Feral joy that one gets from running through an open windy feild at night and screaming at the top of their lungs." I like the idea of keeping her spiky, messy, wild hair in her costume. Like, let that go nuts. Pigella also has ballet inspo, so I think Jin should get, like, festival revelry dancing inspired costume and makeup, but also in more muted earthy tones. Names. . .maybe Babirusa? Type of Indonesian wild boar. My only other ideas are just straight up using Wild Hog or Hogwild.
-Ty Lee: I like the idea of her costume being very circus themed. Like, she looks like a trapeze artist. Lots of glitter and "look at me" kind of details on her costume. Tight, but with just enough loose flowing bits to look cool when it moves around. You could even keep the crown thing because my girl is a queen after all. I think we name her something like Sticky Sweet, Sweet Stinger, or Honey Stinger. Something that emphasizes the "looks like a cinnamon roll, could kill you" thing she has.
-Mai: Hear me out---rat instead of mouse. Mai is always down to pick a fight and is a lot meaner than your average mouse, and this way, her costume could have, like bandit/thug inspiration and she could just look so menacing. The only names that come to mind are Rat-Attack-Tat, which doesn't exactly roll of the tongue or Swarm, which brings more bug than rat.
Also. Eagle!Jet because Freedom Fighters and also Jet with guns sounds like a dangerous and amazing combination. That's it.
Anyway, I gotta go find everything on the Avatar!Ty Lee AU now because I didn't know you had that and HELL YEAH!
Oh! Okay so!
I love the Captain name for Sokka. Also I am double laughing at the Captain Boomerang reference because I have heard him called 'discount Sokka' once before. May have to hammer out the exact ladybug reference with it. A previous ask mentioned Harmonia and Harlequin.
Jaguar is perfect for Katara. I think I gotta go with Painted Jaguar because gotta love the reference.
Something viper themed is good, but I'm not sure exactly what. Vipertime makes me laugh but idk if it fits.
Seiryu is great actually.
Blind Tiger is also perfect lmao.
Okay so Azula! So like. Technically this is a no Bending au. Or else there'd be too much going on to have both atla's plots and the au's. So there's no reason to have a fire theme. BUT. I can't resist bringing back the wordplay that is Vulpyro.
rip Yue I got nothing either.
'looks like a cinnamon roll but will kill you' is the best description of Ty Lee. So yeah one of those Honey Stinger ones is great!
Rat time!! I like it. No idea on names.
Jet with the Eagle is a terrifying but perfect combination. Not sure what his plot will be in this au considering how different the plot is? Like obvs I want to parrallel ATLA's plots but I think a lot of him is hard to translate.

This is Solaris my sky kid! The story i’ve made for them is that they’re originally from the Abyss but currently they travel around the sky kingdom looking for things to put in their scrapbook
Color: 2/2
I love how to combat the dull reds and blues in your outfit you utilized the very bright headwear! You have a good color scheme going with utilizing the primary colors (good pallet, not many people like going for it) but it doesn't fall into the trap of being too much. Good shit.
Shape: 2/2
Shape is pretty standard. Nothing wrong with standard ofc, just not much to comment on. The hair shape and headgear mix really well though, I will say.
Theme: 1/2
I'll admit, I looked up the abyss spirits because I thought this was a copy of the guide. That's how well you blend in with the abyss spirits. You definitely have the theme down for being from there! That said, I kinda am not getting much of the scrapbook vibes, yk? Solaris just appears to be yet another basic abyss skykid. I'd love to see if you could do more, maybe with a mask?
Creativity: 2/2
Good usage of Duet cosmetics in an unconventional way. It's very easy when designing a skykid from a specific location to only utilize cosmetics from the season but you avoided it and still pulled it off. Very nice!
Personal Preference: 2/2
I really vibe with this outfit. I don't see a lot of outfits that aim for more muted colors which is criminal considering it looks dope as fuck.
Overall Score: 9/10
Notes: Solaris having that headgear really fits the meaning of the name. I like it!
If you would like me to rate your outfit simply submit an ask!

(clothing analysis anon is back, hope you’re doing well🌻💛💙)
something I’m kind of bummed about but also torn over is how from what we’ve seen of season 5, Mike’s wardrobe is back to polo shirts
The reason I’m bummed is because I loved his fit in early season 4 when he’s going to Hellfire Club—it felt more counter culture and edgy, and there’s an argument to be made about his modeling after Eddie because he harbored a bit of infatuation for him, so watching him go from that to the airport outfit is extremely jarring (on purpose) and emphasizes that he’s putting on an act for El. This isn’t real life where I get to go from pink all over to chokers and punk vibes from day to day because I like both aesthetics. This fiction and a visual medium; what the characters wear is so carefully curated to match the story and their personalities and the themes and whatnot.
Mike’s windbreaker is more neutral and reflective of earlier seasons (in my brain, season 3, because both 3 & 4 are warmer seasons so the bright, more neon blue evokes season 3 more than the more muted season 1 & season 2 clothes Mike wears) so when he’s wearing it, it feels more like the Mike we’re familiar with. But I just wish we had spent a bit more time with that more punk/counter-culture Mike. (Which, I know all his outfit really consisted of was a raglan tee, black jeans, his watch which honestly looks really good with this outfit, and converse, but it’s quite different than the previous 3 seasons for Mike, so to start the season with it kinda primes your brain for this new look to continue—so maybe it is best they went straight to that jarring, dorky airport look because it was so clearly not a true representation of his style and made the transition back to more Standard Mike almost comforting rather than abrupt.)
The reason I’m torn about it, though, is because of how his clothes from what we’ve seen of season 5 evokes season 1 and 2 sooooo strongly, and that bodes extremely well for Byler because those were the two seasons where Mike was extremely Will-focused. So visually it sends our brains back to season 1 and season 2 Mike and like, almost settle into a familiarity? If that makes sense? A return to form, I guess.
Like, from what little I’ve seen of season 5 Eleven’s clothes, it feels way more season 3 than season 4: more athletic, less hand-me-down Byers (which isn’t bad, I love them so much for becoming her family), less Hopper’s cabin “I had to buy boy clothes so no one would get suspicious,” and more El’s journey in season 3 of finding out what she likes and what she wants to wear + her connection to and friendship with Max. So seeing her clothes in season 5 automatically makes me go, “I think her arc will be about herself and solidifying who she is and being more independent, while also emphasizing her friendship with Max and how what happened to Max and her failure to fully save her but her success in keeping her alive has effected her.”
And I almost forgot—Mike’s hair! I loved it long (the bangs kill me a little though, I like when they’re parted the most) and seeing it short definitely brings him back into season 1 and season 2, even though it’s even shorter in season 5 than it has ever been. But there’s something about it to me that evokes this…..how do I describe this? Quietness, almost? A quietness of the mind? As if he’s less distressed about who he is now? Less conflicted? Which definitely conflicts with the him-getting-cursed theory unfortunately, but I also am just going off of personal vibes in regards to his hair lol so take that with a grain of salt.
The muted colors harken back to season 1 and season 2 and give him a more grounded feeling, almost a maturity or strength of character vibe? So far, Mike has been at his most noble and likable in those first two seasons. So it’s giving that again: a more reliable leader. And someone (Finn, maybe?) has said that we’ll get more Leader Mike in season 5, and I definitely see it reflected in his clothes.
Clothing anon signing off🌻
Hell clothing anon! It's so nice to have you heard again ❤️ (and BTW I love that you gave yourself a lil nickname)
Firstly, I also love Mike's more edgy style at the beginning of season 4, I think it fits the moment he's going through with that sort of punk style that was all the rage at the time.
But I also really like his style during season 2, it felt more grounded, all pastel tones and deep colors that I feel fit his style really well.
One thing I found interesting is that as far as I can tell, both he and Will seem to wear a lot of layers. Will in particular struck me because he was in California wearing layers and a elbow length shirt but just when Mike was around. I wonder if there was a reason for it because I remember thinking it was weird considering how warm California is. Jonathan for example was wearing lighter clothes (which don't really fit his style) whereas Will was there wearing something way too warm for that weather.
Anyway I just rambled for a little bit, sorry lmao. As you said, Mike appears a lot in darker clothes that remind us a lot of what he wore during season 2.
Thanks for the ask and for your amazing explanations about their outfits!

do u guys possibly know of a fic like slow burn/friends to lovers? (completed) something like if you don't love me pretend, that kind of vibe :( cause i just finished it i dont know what else to read
There’s definitely a lot, but tbh I haven’t read If You Don’t Love Me Pretend (swear it’s been on the to do list). But here’s what comes to mind for friends to lovers and slow burn that I’ve personally read. If y’all have read If you love me and have more fitting recs, please drop them!
Believe in Me (ao3) - Elleberquist6
Summary: Dan Howell is living at home while he’s saving money for college, which isn’t easy since his parents don’t understand him. Unlike them, he loves dogs, is a vegetarian, has no interest in the family business, and he despises the supernatural. He struggles to accept things that are illogical, even though he is a kitsune. Kitsune are foxes whose powers involve the ability to cast illusions, but Dan just wants to be normal. Phil Lester has just moved to London, where he works as a dog walker. When his path crosses with Dan, Phil is eager to get to know him. Unfortunately, Phil soon finds that being friends with Dan is far more complicated than he could have imagined.
By the way, I adore you. (ao3) - lxzyfangirl
Summary: Dan is very sick, and the future is not looking too bright for him, thankfully, he has Phil, his best friend, to accompany him through it all. But is Dan satisfied with being just friends?
First Impressions (Perhaps I Was Wrong) (ao3) - Ablissa
Summary: Phil Lester goes back to university for his third year, expecting to live in the dorms with his childhood best friend PJ. That's how it's been for the past years, after all. However, due to a mistake of some sort, he finds himself with a new roommate to spend the semester with.
Daniel Howell, three years his junior, has rich brown eyes, a laptop to hide them behind, and not more than two words to spare in Phil's direction. Phil is no fortune teller, but he foresees the upcoming months will be filled with a whole lot of awkward silence.
Unless, of course, Dan proves him wrong...
Could one little mistake lead to something entirely life-changing? Perhaps it could. After all, nearly everything changes when Phil meets Dan.
restless (ao3) - overwhelmedbysonder
Summary: Breathe. Just breathe.
In. Out. In. Out. In.
It’s not that I don’t try. I see my family, my friends, visiting with their faked smiles and forced laughter, desperately trying to pretend that things are fine, that nothing’s changed. I see them and I want to reach out, I want to look at them and smile and reassure them that I’m here and I’m fine and I’m here, but I can’t, I can’t, I can’t, I can’t.
Or, the one where Phil struggles with depression, PTSD and being mute, and Dan just wants to hug him.
Trust Me, I'm Broken Too (ao3) - natigail
Summary: The Lesters – the royal family of his homeland – was nothing like Dan thought they would be. Well, the King was just as horrible as he had heard but the King’s brother’s son, who was third in line for the throne, was nothing like Dan thought he’d be. Dan had been adrift for three years going from one “place of employment” to another, only his life was seen as worthless and he was more property than an employee. He had never imagined he’s end up as the property of Prince Philip.
The Prince had no intention of ever taking on a personal servant, which was a fancy name to disguise the fact a law essentially enslaved people. Phil often had to do things he didn’t want to or risk being removed from the succession to the crown. If that happened, who knew who his tyrant of an uncle would pick as a successor? When pressured into the choosing, he’d wanted to go for the most innocent, young girl, but hard brown eyes caught his attention instead.

NPLH anon here!
I'm wheezing! I just saw you respond to another ask about the break up! I'm cracking up! Great minds, I guess!
Also wanted to say, the vibe Buck's giving off in that outfit is just... different. I don't know how to explain it, but it feels... slightly to the left? I don't know if the fit is too baggy in comparison to his usual? I don't know if it's just too neutral and it's ringing alarm bells? but that with the hair? The styling is different to the usual curls we've seen thus far too! The entire thing definitely feels off-kilter. Like, the moment I saw him I thought (damn Olive looks fucking great!) something off is going on here!
I think both the fact that the clothes fit him differently and the muted colors is throwing me off, he looks incredible but it is odd. But I am LOVING that that is Eddie's green. That jacket has potential and I am 👀👀👀👀 very hard. I'm really curious about what it means. And what scenes he's wearing it on since Oliver didn't post it directly from set considering they weren't filming yesterday. Why that fit Oliver? Are you being the petty king we know and love?

The EarthSpark Expedition game came out, and since no one is really talking about it, I’ll toss around my two cents. Spoilers naturally.
So first things first, the game’s placement in the story. I think most of us were going to write it off as an adventure in a micro-continuity that didn’t fit with the show. Well that is thrown out the window. The game takes place after S1, with a small recap in the form of a charming RP game by the kids and Terrans.
The story feels like an epilogue, documenting the aftermath of what happened to Mandroid after his Doomsday Project went kaput. Well, he seemingly survived, though we don’t see him in person until the end of the game, and he’s giving the Doomsday Project another crack with the Energon Activator. This time he requires three relics to power the contraption, so naturally Bee is sent on a mission by Optimus to collect them, with Alex as Bee’s wingman.
The twist however is Mandroid has upgraded his mind control chips, having reprogrammed Skullcruncher, Skywarp, Nova Storm and Grimlock again, but also Optimus Prime, meaning Mandroid was playing 4D Chess to get Bee to essentially do his dirty work for him. It is kind of interesting Manny had to reprogram the jets since they willingly served him before, but then again after trying to obliterate (TERMINATE!) all Cybertronic life it makes sense the femjets wouldn’t want to anymore lol. Poor Grim can’t catch a break, but this time he seems to shrug off the experience, mostly calling it unpleasant. To my surprise, Skullcruncher can talk here. I wonder why he’s largely mute in the show (besides what I assume is budget).
Optimus being mind controlled is interesting. I know EarthSpark sorta dabbled previously, but it’s been fairly rare for Prime to be “charged with Evil” ala Attack of the Autobots. The Last Knight did it too, but well we all know how that went down financially. The point being after years of Prime being sort of rigid and untouchable, in what feels like heavy mandates from Hasbro, it’s refreshing to see some experimental stuff with Optimus again. EarthSpark’s strength with Optimus was returning to the well meaning, dorky sweater vest father figure from G1, and going farther with a AotAutobots/Dark Awakening vibe with Expedition is especially fun. Especially since it was a big defining moment for Bumblebee and Rodimus, so it’s fun to see it homaged here.
I also like the designs of the various henchbots Bee fights in the game. They appear to be generic Transformers, but I forget what their context was in game, but could we get toys of them, Hasbro.
As for Mandroid, when he finally appears in person, the truth is revealed. The Mandroid we’ve been following is an AI backup of his personality made before Doomsday MK1. The original officially died. His current body is a giant misshapen Arachnimech with tv screens bolted to its body to show off his original human face. Inevitably, Mandroid looses and finishing him off, Bumblebee blows a hole in his body with a MegaMan style charged shot. Hashtag says Mandroid likely can’t revive again as the ruins of GHOST HQ, now overgrown with plant life curiously and looking like ancient ruins in a shot amount of time, has really cruddy Wi-Fi, so the AI couldn’t escape into another body. Bee nevertheless seems determined in case Manny DOES return, implying we COULD see him again in S2 in some capacity. That being said, the vibe I get also feels like Bertram from Family Guy. How he died in show following a botched attempt at killing Stewie via time manipulation, only to return in a Family Guy video game as the main villain picking up where he left off, only to die again with a nonchalant joke about how we’ll never see Bertram again after this. So 50/50 at Mandroid’s return methinks. For all we know, as of typing, the villains of S2 are COBRA as part of Energon Universe synergy.
Still the story was fun. Definitely very Furman, and kinda nostalgic as a result. The Terrans are all perfectly in character of course. The only thing kinda holding it back is the voice acting, as none of the actors from the show are reprising their roles. Though the actor who played Bee in Netflix WFC reprised the role here, and he’s definitely one of the better actors, when otherwise the acting is a little… subpar. Way better than WFC and Prime Wars, but having that amateurish feeling from Cyberverse… They give it their all though and they still feel like their characters so that’s good.
As said it feels like an epilogue, though while fun to see Mandroid back at it, it DOES feel a tad repetitive using the same Doomsday weapon but slightly different, and using mostly the same Transformers being “Robo-Smashed”. I feel like you could’ve gotten some cool gameplay using Shockwave, Soundwave (& the Cassettes), Bombshell, Starscream and Hardtop. Personally I’d have liked including some new Transformers, like how the TFP game was built around the Decepticons rebuilding the Unicronian Thunderwing, with him as the final boss. Something like that maybe, only Mandroid has unearthed a Combiner, a friend recommended the Masterforce versions of the Seacons, with the final boss being a Mandroid controlled King Poseidon. Ah well maybe for the sequel then.

Scavengers Reign
Holy shit, good western animation that’s not comedy and actually has a focus on aesthetics, setting and craft??
Seriously, I still can’t believe something like Scavengers Reign got made. This feels like a student thesis film you’d see on Vimeo, not a full 12-episode series with a healthy production schedule.
I loved this show. The artstyle is a clear rip of Moebius, but that’s… fucking sick? I mean, given how little that style has been successfully adapted for animation, I’m all for it, especially when it’s done with this much care and skill. Seriously, some of the longer environments shots could genuinely pass for later Moebius illustrations. The colors are also gorgeous throughout, managing to make each biome feel distinct (and thus sell how far our characters have traveled) while maintaining a consistent, muted vibe over the course of the story.
The star of the show, obviously, is the ecology and creature design. Even with no added context, the designs are all very cool, from the little rolling polyps we see everywhere to the stampeding ungulates. But the thing that sets this show apart is the clear ecological niche we’re shown for each species. Nearly every creature we see, we learn something about: their source of food, their natural predators, the unique behavior they’ve adapted to thrive in their environment. And the comparison to nature documentaries doesn’t just stop there - they even directly ape the style, editing and content of documentaries, like when the show focuses on territorial disputes between members of the same species, or highlights a predator taking advantage of its prey’s weakest moments to strike.
Some of my particular favorite ideas: 1. All of the various white-coated creatures near Azi’s desert encampment that blend seamlessly into the spires for camouflage 2. The seafaring creatures sucking up their young for protection during the lightning storm, and the parasites that come in to gorge themselves while they’re defenseless 3. The fact that the little Grey-looking gecko-apes (Hollow’s species), given their intelligence and powerful telekinesis, could clearly become apex predators and take on prey many times their size… but instead use their hypnosis to force other species to get food for them, because it takes way less energy expenditure. That’s nature, baby!
The show definitely drags a bit around the halfway point. The start of the story is explosive, as we follow the viewpoints of 3 different groups of survivors and their drastically different situations. The character dynamics are great in the beginning - Ursula and Sam’s early mastery of the wildlife during their expeditions, Azi’s reticence contrasted with Levi’s developing personality, and the slow horror that unfolds as Kamen is taken in by Hollow. For the first few episodes, we have no idea where things will end up, and it’s exciting watching things play out.
By the midpoint, we’ve basically lost Kamen’s point of view, as his arc is put on ice until the end of the show, so we’re just bouncing back and forth between Sam & Ursula’s perspective, and the group Azi finds herself falling in with. Sam & Ursula’s narrative feels like it gets stuck in a rut here, as Sam gets infected with two different parasites back to back; I really feel like they should’ve committed to one (preferably the plot thread about the previous survivor) rather than trying to land the same emotional beat twice in a row. On Azi’s side, while I understand what they were going for with Kris and the other newcomers, their story never really got compelling for me. Scavengers’ strength is the planet and its bizarre alien life. Levi, with their dawning sentience and growing connection to the natural world, really fits into those themes; replacing that with a ‘Humans were the real monsters scavengers all along!’ subplot is a tough sell, especially when the characters driving it are about as charismatic as a puddle and have some of the most awkward acting / writing in the show.
There’s even some form issues in the middle section. In classic anime fashion, the visuals take a bit of a hit; there’s less standout background work in the 2nd act, and the character animation suffers at times. I also found the editing distracting in this section; with only two points of view to go between, the constant cutting between the A and B plot started to feel artificial and distracting. Also, since we more or less have an idea of how the stories are going to come together by this point, there’s a sense of inevitability to the proceedings.
Fortunately, things come back together in the end; Ursula leaving Sam behind is every bit as bittersweet as it should be, Levi’s resurrection by the planet-flowers is fascinating, and the sequence where Hollow is returned to its natural self, courtesy of a Levi-supplied Total Perspective Vortex, is just goddamn gorgeous. Seriously, if anything can become iconic anymore in the constantly shifting hell that is today’s media landscape, it’s this breathtaking animated montage of life germinating and evolving on Vesta. Well, that and the buckwild life-to-death flower pollination sequence in episode 3. Fully expecting to see those posted as captures on random forums one, five, ten years from now.
Here’s hoping for season two, or anything more from this creative team! They can’t leave us hanging with the fuckin Imperium of Man showing up at the end like that, can they?

Crossover fusions. Like how would you see them looking like? https://www.tumblr.com/operation-resonance/758374202259783680/im-feeling-inspired-by-collabwithmyselfs-ace
You had me at fusions! I'm no character designer, but I'd be more than happy to try my hand at thinking of design elements that link to their components' individual personalities and how they mesh together!
For Metatron, a cravat tucked into a purple suit would fit him nicely. Mixes Phoenix's standard tie and Edgeworth's jabot into something a little more fancy but not as flaunting; a great balance to represent their stable and loving fusion. For hair, this fusion could have a little cardinal or blue jay-styled cowlick, just a small portion of hair that flicks up along the back of the scalp. Gotta keep that bird theming from Phoenix in here while acknowledging Edgeworth's own teeny lil hair flicks.
For Eros, I imagine their fusion would be a little more on the disorderly side since they do tend to clash individually at times. But one of the ways I can really see their fusion shine is by incorporating the fact that music is a core part of both identities. Even if Apollo never got to experience a life filled with music because of his dad's death and mom's disappearance when he was just a baby, Klavier is the one who opens him up to that world he never got to experience. I think a punk rock aesthetic would go perfectly with this fusion, representing their shared goal of fighting against the dark age of the law.
Yuki is definitely a combination of their component's growing confidence in themselves and their work. Though they still have some anxieties remaining, so I think a color palette consisting of Athena's bright yellow and Shuichi's muted dark blue would compliment their bravery and lasting uncertainties. I'd love if they wore a GYAXA jacket over their shoulders to represent the connection they have to their friends and family being closely tied to space, which could've rubbed off on the fusion.
Tsukiyomi is definitely a super fun fusion to think about! While it may be more akin to a possession since Ryunosuke is a ghost in your scenario, I still think they'd balance out well in appearance since I'm a believer that ghosts still carry the identities of their mortal selves, which includes how they look. They'd definitely fuse over their shared motivation for discovery, not just in the truth, but learning more about foreign places and people! It'd be cool if their cloaks were combined by making the fusion's cloak long and wispy, practically floating to really hammer in that ghostly vibe.
Icarus is double the anime protagonist, so double the ahoges! It would be fun if their fusion had that bright white-gold hair color like 'Ultimate Hope' Hajime had. Other than that, Icarus would still probably be mistaken for just a regular student, wearing standard clothes, but he still has an air about him that makes him stand out from the crowd regardless.

Hii~ I found your blog and I love your writing style! I saw your requests and matches are open and I got curious about the match. It's very interesting to me to see which member people will match me with based off my vibe.
So, would you like to match me with a Seventeen member, please? 😇
I basically have two different aesthetics; dark colors, Doc. Martens, rock, metal, "e-girl". If you know anything about Harry Potter, I'd fit right into Slytherin. The greens and the snake symbols are awesome to me.
But at the same time I like "coquette". Soft or muted pinks, Chanel No.5, bags, Marie from The Aristocats. This side of me wants to explore Paris and eat pain au chocolate all day every day.
Some of my hobbies are journalling (or scrapbooking), making beaded jewellery, gaming, listening to music and go on coffee dates (either by myself or with friends). Ofcourse I watch Netflix as well. My absolute favorite show is Stranger Things. Sometimes I wish I could live in the 80s... oh look, another aesthetic.
Speaking of music, my top 5 svt songs are;
• Fear
• Rock
• Hot
• Back It Up
• Fire
Hope I gave you enough to work with! Thank you so much and have a nice day! 🫶🏻
hi lovely! thank you for requesting a match, the member i would pair you up with is…
SEUNGCHEOL!
both of you give off a dual vibe as you have mentioned in your ask aswell, as much as he is a hardcore protective man he is an adorable baby (aegyo king) , so therefore he would love to have someone who has the same vibes and duality.
he would definitely spoil you with those gorgeous handbags and the most beautiful pieces of clothing (if you are into dresses that is definitely something we would buy in both cutesy pinks and fiery reds/dark green/black). i think he is very drawn to people who can be edgy and like the type of music his unit represents and stands for, and we have seen how precious his loved ones are to him, babying them a lot, so he would definitely be whipped if you made him a cute bracelet (he would wear it everywhere).
there would be many nights when he would love to game with you, even watch your favourite shows on a laptop or the tv, enjoying the calm vibes together.
speaking of the coquette aesthetic, he would definitely make that concept come true by taking you to the most fancy and expensive restaurants and cafés a person could find, no matter how far they are.
overall i think he would love you unconditionally every minute, and the two of you would make each other complete by easily adapting to the other’s mood and wants.:)
