[celestialprincesse]

YES!! YEY!!

so yk how like nerd!readers usually have collections? yes, collections. i have obsessions over a lot of things. im a "nerd" for dinos, coffee, dark romance books, cats, bla bla. yes. im a handful. hah.

then how they usually dont sleep. how I usually dont sleep lmao. then he comes home to reader studying or completing work, thesis, reports you name it. or maybe back to reader just waiting for him with those almost dead,baggy eyes. like "oh hey, fuck im sleepy". oh my ive been there. had my friend coming over and she saw me flopped on the floor, papers everywhere, highlighter in mouth while my empty coffee mug had crunched papers haha. also, 3 days of thesis(s)

then reader binges a lot. on books, series, documentaries, anything that keeps them away from being loneliness. i love crime and history oh hell yes. usually watch them war docus haha. then the crime ones are addicting. or for fun, id watch cooking shows, thanks to that habit, im a pro chef (lol) im an ambivert, thus, yes i can socialise. i had my housemate come with me shopping. she's a pilot so she's rarely home. she followed me to the mall, nearby cafe's, some local shops and i was saying high to all the shopkeepers. she was like, "you know everyone?" "yep, get pretty lonely :D" yea..i could imagine Simon just watching in confusion haha. i have..adopted 2 cats to keep me entertained...sorry Simon :D

hehe, i have more but this is all for now love! <333 i wanna know how it is on your side :DD

Honestly, it's pretty much the same for me. I'm big on collecting things too, mostly books and jewellery and the occasional kitschy antique I stumble upon at my local thrift. I also sleep a lot (but always at weird times) because my brain keeps me up at night whirring about the most random nonsensical things.

I like to think that Simon sort of takes charge of he and nerdy!readers relationship when they're working on a big research project because they just entirely forget how to function. I'm talking hoisting them over his shoulder to get to bed, plugging in their laptop so it's fully charged in the morning. He asks them questions about their interests just so that he gets the opportunity to shove a granola bar or some berries into their open mouth, otherwise they'll get so focussed they forget to eat. He'll drag them to the gym or on a walk with him just so that they can get some fresh air and exercise, because sitting at a desk for all hours of the day for weeks isn't healthy, despite how much they try and convince him it is.

Honestly? I also think that Simon would be super pro his partner getting a pet. He's down to do basically anything that will give them a break from freaking out over their studies, and he'd really like them to have some company when he's away on deployment, so at least if they don't leave the house, they won't be entirely alone.

“I’m telling you, I was born in the wrong timeline and the wrong sex!” Hange exclaims, trading their branded apron for their civilian coat and giving a last minute check to the coffee shop for any obvious task they might have forgotten.

Levi clicks his tongue at them, not for the first time that day, and gestures for them to leave out the front door with him.

“And you only realized that after sixteen years, while watching a blockbuster series about sword fights and magic?”

“Yes! No? I don’t know, I just know I want to be a knight!” they whine, using the tone they know their coworker can hardly stand.

“You want to be a knight, or you want to do one of them?”

“Levi! How dare you put your dirty thoughts into my pure and innocent mind!”

“I may not watch that shit show myself, shitty glasses, but I’ve seen enough screen caps and memes to know no one innocent watches it. Not with those casting choices anyway.”

Hange’s glasses reflect the setting sun and hide their eyes even as they grin devilishly at him, and he groans at his own slip up.

“Oh, you’ve seen enough screen caps to have an opinion then? Tell me, which one strikes your fancy, Neat Freak? The sadist bastard who tortures people into becoming his slaves, or the annoyingly rich golden boy who had three kids with his own sister?”

He just stares at them for a minute, then shakes his head as he locks the front door.

“I swear this show gets worse every time I hear about it,” he mumbles under his breath. “Either way, the one I like best has green eyes, and I think his father was in Lord of The Rings or something?”

“Oh… You mean, Robb Stark?”

Levi glares their way, because how the fuck would he know, again? But Hange, as always immune to his stink eye, just pulls their phone out and hands it over after a quick search.

“Here, is that him? Oh my God, you’re blushing, it’s totally him!” they squeal before Levi can even confirm it with words.

“Shut up and help me pull this down,” he requests, gesturing to the iron shutter they have to secure before leaving. “He is cute,” he still feels the need to argue defensively as Hange complies.

They chuckle and bump their shoulder to his when they squat down to help him with the heavy padlock that secures the system in place.

“He is,” they agree with a reassuring smile, before letting a sigh out. “Shame that he dies in season three though.”

“What? I thought he was, like, the main character!”

“Well, he is, until, you know... he gets his throat slit at his cousin’s wedding, right after he sees his pregnant wife getting stabbed straight into her belly.”

Levi picks up his jaw from the floor and turns to face his coworker, waiting to see if there’s any chance they could be trying to pull one on him —they don’t usually have a strong enough poker face to actually trick him, but they’ve surprised him before in the year they’ve been sharing shifts on this shitty part time job.

“She dies too, of course! Along with everyone who was with them then,” Hange adds right away, like that’s somehow reassuring.

“Why the fuck do you watch this shit, Four Eyes?” he asks, genuinely confused about it all.

“Ah, sorry, I know you’re weird about this stuff. We can talk about something else if you want,” they offer with a sheepish smile, scratching the back of their neck in discomfort.

“I’m not weird about it,” Levi corrects, dismissing their concern with a wave of his hand, “and it’s fine to discuss. I just don’t like violence for the sake of violence, or for shock value. Feels lazy to me.”

“That’s not all there is to it!”

He gives them a pointed glance, and Hange has the decency to blush a little.

“Okay, it’s probably a big part of it… But the plot does justify it most of the time so far, and some characters are really interesting and fun to try to figure out, I think you’d enjoy it! Besides, the fighting scenes are so badass, Levi!”

They launch into a mock choreography of what he can only assume is one of those scenes, and Levi doesn’t bother holding back a chuckle as he walks alongside them. He ignores the puzzled looks from people who pass them by, throwing a glare or two whenever someone dares to stare for too long with judging eyes.

“How do you have so much energy after the shift you just pulled on top of a day in class, for fuck's sake? I really feel like I’m the older one here sometimes.”

And alright, Levi does have another, early and demanding job to go to while other kids his age are in school, which might explain his own state of tiredness. But Hange truly is something else, stamina-wise.

“That’s because you’re an old soul, Levi, whereas I’m brand new and enthusiastic about what the world has to offer! And about swords!”

“Yeah, right. Why don’t you sign up to fencing lessons and get it out of your system for good?”

“Sure, let me give up this side job I only took for the fun of it, ask my imaginary butler to fetch my thousand dollars allowance from my billionaire parents and I’ll do just that!”

He bites the inside of his cheek to prevent his smile from stretching too wide, even though he knows Hange will be able to tell they got him with that one anyway.

“Point taken,” he gives in.

The walk back to their subway station is silent, a little less comfortable than usual when they’re both painfully aware that Hange’s now thinking about their own financial issues —the unfortunate reason they even took this job and met Levi in the first place.

He looks around the industrial neighborhood they’re walking, and spots two long rusty metal pipes hanging out from a bin nearby. In a fit of renewed energy he didn’t suspect he could have, he rushes over there, grabs them —heavier than they look, but he knows they can both handle it— and throws one at Hange’s feet.

“Here you go, Sir Hange Zoë,” he declares, feeling absolutely ridiculous as he stands in what he hopes looks like a sword fighting position —he sure hopes Hange will give him a break, it’s not like he has a wide frame of reference for this. “Fight me.”

They chortle, the sound immediately brightening the mood —and Levi’s day.

“You don’t have to do this, Levi. You were right, it’s kind of childish.”

He frowns and charges, hitting their shin lightly with his shabby weapon. Hange’s eyebrows shoot up on their forehead, and he can tell they’re slowly giving in.

“Levi! You can’t attack a defenseless maiden, that’s not gentleman-y at all!”

“You’re not a maiden, dumbass. And who said I’m a gentleman?”

Next time he lunges, they block the blow thanks to their own pipe and send him stumbling back —with a force that would surprise anyone else considering how lanky they look in their baggy clothes, and a fire in their eyes that would no doubt freak them out too. Levi, however, has known for months now that the tall nerdy weirdo look is only a mask hiding a fierce, passionate kid who might just be the strongest person he’s ever met —in more ways than one.

Sadly, they’re also much more —how did they put it again? Oh, right— enthusiastic about the whole fighting thing than he’d foreseen, and he soon finds himself having an actual hard time holding them off. One of their well placed hits shatters the pipe he was holding in his hold, and he thanks his lucky star that the combat has to end as he puts both hands up.

“Alright, I yield! You’re right, Four Eyes, you would have made a great knight.”

“Thank you!” they reply with a wink and a graceless curtsy.

Hange throws their pipe back into the trash can, before holding out their hand to ask for the some of the hand gel Levi’s already rubbing on his palms. He throws them a disapproving look, more for show than anything else, and gives them some —really, he’s kind of excited that they’re finally getting some of his neat freak habits, as they always call them.

“So, I won, right?” they ask him when they start walking again.

“Tch, I guess you did,” he grants them, not up to point out how questionable that statement is when really, breaking your opponent’s weapon has to be against the rules, right?

“Then my prize is... that you have to watch the next season with me!”

He spends the rest of the walk and the three subway stations they share trying to get out of that commitment.

(He fails.)

ＡＰＲＩＬ

well, there was a lot of going on in april :)

first: MY BIRTHDAYYYY i threw the whole party and invited the half of hollywood lmao. There was a lot of my co-stars, artists and singers. I did it like there was no tomorrow, the party was crazy, basically everyone got drunk and sang 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY' like 5 times BUT IT WAS SO COOL UGHHHHH i love them all so so so fucking much. I caan't take it anymore.

I threw the party back in LA, where i was living since my hollywood debut in Ad Astra, but i was planning on moving into NYC fro like a year. SO I DID IT HAHAHAHAHHH it's so cool and i was so excited, but we will move to it later :))

What also happened: PEDRO'S BIRTHDAYYYYY my favourite (okay, he is not the only one BUT STILL) babygirl on earth turned 48 and he invited me to his party which was so COOL!!! idk how will i move on from this, i met BELLA RAMSEY (FINALLY???!?!?!? UGHHH) and met oscar isaac again (for those who don't know, he's my future s/o but it's a long slowburn lmao ✦ he was also my co-star in moon knight, but we knew each other for like a year before this series) after party he took me out to the city, we were talking and walking around LA for HOURS it was so cute he even bought me a rose literally when florist's wanted to close the shop, then we found out paparazzi took a pictures of us there 💀 they are so annoying i swear. but anyway, i had amazing night and oscar made it even better :')

Emma also had her birthday, but i couldn't show up, because of filming 'joker II' with JOAQUIN FUCKING PHEONIX I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE IT. But i sent her birtday present, which was the whole album of photos that i took on my digital camera on our summer & winter holidays - which i thought was super cute :')

April was super productive in a birthday-way as you can see, lmao

But also other super thing happened! Warner Bros. accepted my movie idea and hired me as a director of it. I'M SUPPER EXCITED TO BRING IT TO LIFE UGHHH

ＭＡＹ

talking, talking & talking about my movie and me as a director - which was super stressfull for me but everything turned out okay! I started writing the script at the end of april, so until i will write it and it gets accepted by Warner Bros. it will take a while for me to cast people :(( but still so excited for it!

and... MY DREAM ABOUT MOVING TO NYC FINALLY CAME TRUE!!!

i bought cute little flat in Manhattan, and started to plan how to move there with all my things. but you know, i didn't sell my old house - no no no. i would never do that, actually. It's the best house in the whole world duhh🙄. I will be still using it!

My friends helped me a lot with planning the whole 'mission' lmao. Shout-out to pedro he told me to move to NYC and live with rats under brooklyn bridge LOL

ANYWAYYY oscar & i met for some coffee instead of actually putting my things into huge boxes for my flat in NYC which was super cute BUT I CAN'T STAND THAT I SCRPITED THE SLOWBURN MAN.

so freaking annoying. why would i do that. AND ANGST which is also annoying

but yup, he helped me a lot, also bc he also lives in new york, so he can help me there :))

(he gives me a little flower everytime we meet, but we are still 'friends' so it should mean nothing BUT IT MEANS SOMETHING TO ME GUYS. it's super super super cute and i wanna hug him so badly, but i am not doing it bc of paparazzi, those rats are following me and oscar literally everywhere 💀)

the whole may was me writing script for a movie, shooting joker II, planning on moving out and meeting oscar just for 'helping me with this nyc thing'

ＪＵＮＥ

'Priscilla' movie with me in main role had its global premiere! I missed this vibe so so so so much, and being on the same red carpet as CILLA PRESLEY had me in tears. i think i've never been more stressed in this dr but she was sooooo kind to me like I CANNOT BELIEVE IT i will have this moment tatooed i swear to god!!!

(i hope this movie will give me an oscar nominee tbh OH WAIT I SCRIPTED IT)

i also got a 2 months break from joker II :) bc they are shooting the scenes without me, so i can finally 'rest' and get my life in new york together

well... beside that, nothing new happened. scripting, FINALLY all my things that i wanted in new york already are there, so week after the movie premiere i moved in :'))

also, i auditioned for some random (lmao) part in new kingsman movie that is in making

from funny things that happened: pedro locked himself in his car LMAO idk how did this happen but he literally called me and oscar to help him before calling the police or smth. HOW COULD YOU LOCK YOURSELF IN YOUR OWN CAR BRO this is too funny to be true. IF YOU COULD SEE OUR FACES

then we grabbed some coffee and went to central park (me and oscar of course were making fun of pedro but who wouldn't)

ＪＵＬＹ

I. STILL. DID. NOT. MOVE. ON. FROM. THIS.

my beloved billie want ME to sing with HER on her new single? LIKE WHAT

[gregoftom]

I've been thinking about tomgreg living as roommates while Tom and Shiv are like on a break or fully divorced and Kendall's finally thrown Greg out of the apartment, and, like. It would surprise them both how easy and natural it would be?? Tom's all tidy and Greg's more of a mess but he'll make an effort to be cleaner when Tom nags at him. Greg loves taking Mondale on walks an they go together to the dog park on weekends all three of them. Tom gets back into the habit of cooking dinner because Greg appreciates it way more tha Shiv ever did. Maybe Tom even makes Greg help chop things and it becomes a nice little routine for them! And they do movie marathons with wine and a few spliffs and Greg helps Tom properly relax for the first time in years.

It's all domestic and casual and so so easy and they're both trying hard not to read into it, trying not to think about how easily it could become more, even when they're falling asleep on the sofa leaning against each other or when they're making a list for their shopper together for when they want to make some elaborate new dish... when Greg's stealing one of Tom's old college jumpers or when they're taking Mondale for a check up at the vet together, when they easily move around each other when they're in a hurry to get ready for work... and it looks and feels so much like a relationship but they can't think about it because if they did, it could become awkward and it would all be ruined and neither of them can risk that --

Until one Sunday morning they're sleepy and making breakfast in the kitchen, Tom at the stove and Greg making coffee - and Tom asks Greg to pass him the bacon from the fridge and Greg does and Tom says thanks sweetheart and gives him a little kiss and Greg smiles and takes a sip of coffee -

And then they both freeze because What the fuck was that??? And they're both sputtering and blushing and frantically trying to back off and explain it away

Tom, in true Tom fashion retreats into his old assholish ways and laughs and goes like "haha yeah can you imagine if that was us lmao that'd be fucking ridiculous and who would tolerate your morning coffee breath anyway lmao"

And he expects Greg to just go along with it, and Greg maybe tries to - but it's not working and he's tearing up and his hands are shaking so bad he has to put his coffee down. And he goes like, "I don't mind the razzing usually but, Tom, you can't joke about this, for real you cannot."

And Tom freaks out because fuck, he didn't mean to make Greg uncomfortable, he didn't mean to just steal a kiss if it freaks Greg out so bad -

But Greg goes on, "You have to know that's the one thing you can't poke me about because it's too fucking hurtful and sure, you're an asshole but you're not _cruel,_ please don't be cruel?" And a tear slips down his cheek and Tom can feel himself tearing up too

And Tom start getting it finally? Because Greg would't be crying if this wasn't real. And Tom decides to take a leap of faith -

He steps right up to Greg and takes him by the cheeks and holds him,, wipes away a tear with his thumb,, goes like,

"Let's back up" all soft and low in his sweetest voice, leaning in until Greg meets his eye - all red-eyed and lip trembling and Tom loves him so so much -

"I called you sweetheart just now, and kissed you, and it was instinct, Greg. It was the most natural thing, it was the only course of action I could reasonably take with how I feel. It's the most natural thing to have you in my space and all your shit in my apartment and your fucking disgusting socks and drug paraphernalia accumulating everywhere -

And Greg's hearing him and the sweetest little hopeful smile is growing on his face, and he asks like, "yeah? No joke?" Because if this is a razz he'll fucking go apeshit -

And Tom presses their foreheads together, "yeah. I go to sleep having had the best time with you, every night, and I wake up to you every morning, your ridiculous bedhead and your sleepy face and god help me I want to kiss you, all day, everyday"

And Greg's smiling for real, meeting Tom's eyes and settling his hands softly on Tom's hips. "You can, you know."

Tom can barely believe it and he's smiling so hard it's difficult but - he kisses Greg again, and it's just as right and natural as it was the first time. Nothing bad happens, the world doesn't end, it's just two men standing in a kitchen and holding each other and smiling and kissing. It's just Greg's soft hair in Tom's hands and his sweet little moan as Tom kisses him harder and his hands petting all over Tom's back and tugging at his clothes already because he's Greg and he's a greedy little creature. And they pull back to look as each other and they're smiling so hard and. It's _good_ and it feels right and maybe it's okay that they're doing this because they're in it together. Yeah anyway that's all thank you for coming to my ted talk i like soft tomgreg !

RRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR YEYEHAHEYHEHAEYAEY GOL GOL GOL GOL GOL GOL GOLAZO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ghosts 3 x 3 reaction

Here's my initial reaction to the episode. Side note, I've been going in surprised so... I know nothing other than the promo at the end of last episode.

Oooh a flashback 1875 for Hetty?

Painter paramour??? It was just an ankle!

LMAO Trevor. That's funny. Also, love Jay alone with the ghosts. Oh wait Bela and Eric are showing up.

Jay saying "no offense".

Aw Eric - I don't like him. I wish they weren't still together.

SHUT UP JAy.

LOL Hetty! WHAT THE FUCK!

I'm still annoyed that Isaac gets 10 grand. Where's Trevor's cut for saving the house twice? Including the blackmail for his body.

Aw Jay. I felt for him in that moment. "I'm going to do this in every room."

Oh my god Hetty.

OMG Jay explaining a few things and Alberta being upset that her murder didn't rank.

Ohhh, Why doesn't he want Sam to be there?

LMAO Alberta's reaction.

OMG did you think that he would forget?

OOOOH, ERIC IS LYINGGGGG???? OMGGGGG!

He was right at first.

Hetty insulting Sass and Pete! Aw, Pete. OMG Isaac.

A prenup for ghosts? Also, how do you break up as ghosts??

I DO LOVE THAT Hetty clearly isn't as friendly with Nigel as it seems - which I appreciate since we never saw the make-up after the blackmail thing.

OHHHHH He wants to use it to be with Bela. How has he been making this up for months?

AHHHH SAM!

LOVE them trying to tell her! GREAT SCENE!

I really enjoy the Thor/Trevor/Alberta situation.

I like playing around with the pairings.

THREE MONTHS?? That doesn't make sense. It was like two days and he didn't mean to catphish her in the initial episode.

OMG that's not the bigger person there, Jay.

Because you never had a connection in the first place - she never liked you.

You are such a hypocrite Jay.

The ghosts are such bad influences on Sam.

Hey let him say the words in his background, Alberta. Also, giving him crap about the pants is really fucking annoying.

Prenups are always going to get this conversation. Did Nissan breakup?

OMG Hetty. This is hilarious. Sass is very upset.

Thor wants him to die.

OMG Lying about the hair.

This is so terrible - how did Bela believe this?

LOVE THAT BELA PAYS ATTENTION TO THIS STUFF.

Why would you throw yourself down the stairs? SO SO DUMB.

LMAO I love Bela being upset. OMG Eric made up a ghost that she would actually like.

"I'd like to be top choice."

Aww Sass and Hetty. It's interesting that he was a choice between money and love. Do we think this is more Hmoney than Nissac?

Nancy! OMG!

Sam! OMG SAM! That's cute!

"You thirsty bitch"

Kind of weirdo. Talking him in a coffee shop.

NOOOO I don't like Eric.

Cute Thor/Pete moment with the joke.

OMG JC inside Eric the whole time.

I'm sooo disappointed. He made it all up.

LOVE bringing up the Prom Date.

We're at the final minute - what's going to happen? SOOOO CURIOUS.

Ahhhhh. OH MY GOD, Isaac is terrible. Hetty making up for her behavior. It's very sweet.

Wait, Wait, Wait - you guys are terrible at least for Sam. I would be freaking out, too.

Overall, it was great - funny episode, but I am disappointed that Bela stayed with Eric and there was no talking or working through the Jay/Trevor and Trevor/Bela thing.

Or Hmoney for that matter. Like... what?

The promo is very interesting....

𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐧 ✏ 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬

To be honest, I had no idea what to do with this one but still, I have even more writing block when it comes to the other prompt thus I didn't really had the choice lmao.

So yeah welcome to this very ooc, fluffy and silly one-shot with whatever the fuck this plot is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ all I can say is "idk they bicker and love each other"

There's isn't really a trigger warning here just blood probably idk

Enjoy it please I know it's awfully bad but really I beg you-

I was too lazy to Google any recipes on how to make an in quote perfect/proper candied apples as I just based myself on what me and my cousin have made once with measuring based on our ancestors' feelings thus it's more tangulu than candied apples lol sorry not sorry. Plus the recipe isn't there. Again. Sorry not sorry.

Oh and to add, Husk is malagasy because I want to

•• <<────≪•◦⚜◦•≫────>> ••

Alastor was never the one to be known for appreciating sweets or delicacies that had to do with sugar.

For insistance, whenever Lucifer would cook his famous duck shaped pancakes or when Husk would made his sweet and spicy alcoholic drinks, he would usually coats his own part with vinegar ("vinegar?? Vinegar OF ALL THINGS??" Sometimes Vaggie would say, completely flabbergasted by his lack of taste) or salt, his tooth not used to candy or sugary cream.

And, as you could see, despite being judged for those horrendous mixes, Alastor supported more the concoction than it was originally.

"The dude upstairs be damned if that freak would even wants a block of sugar in his bitter old ass coffee." Husk grumbled slightly, cleaning off a few bottles of booze that was laying on the counter while Angel, still half asleep yet glued on his phone, nodded absently, his finger instinctively muting every messages Valentino kept sending him which was almost every two minutes.

"C'mon Husky, Smiles's just that of a picky eater that's all. I mean, yeah sure this dude eats pancakes with liver. Liver! But-! He isn't that horrible once you know the context-"

"Didn't he put pepper in your homemade Pana Cotta when you have made one that time?" Husk asked as he couldn't hide the smug grin when he was Angel's grip on his phone getting tighter while a vein was threatening to pop up just above his frowning eyebrows and clenched smile.

"It's__!" Angel started but then his teeth clenched before he sighed dramatically, his four arms limping on the counter. Husk couldn't help but move out one of it delicately, cringing a bit at the recently cleaned up counter.

Then Angel broke. "No but you're right! I really don't understand this guy- how? HOW?? How can you be SO repulsed of something that isn't salty or spicy?? Fuck, even when it's about sex Smile's not even that iffy towards it-!" The spider complained, frowning deeply all the way.

Husk raised an eyebrow with slight Inquisitor at him while sorting a few bottles of whisky and wine from a recent delivery from one of the overlord of the pride ring that specialized himself in alcoholic drinks. The four armed demon was about to continue his ramblings until someone else piped in, their voice groggy.

"Technically Alastor's libido is pretty much a fifty fifty. Or a roulette wheel. I know from experience."

Completely ignoring his own double edged words, Lucifer sat on the other disponible chair next to Angel quite heavily, his six wings hanging lazily from his back as they almost reach the ground but the monarch didn't even seemed to mind it the slightest. He slightly rubbed his face out of tiredness as Angel's eyes widened a bit but soon his flirty and smug persona came back as he leaned furthermore to the counter, much to Husk's disagreement as the cat demon's tail puffed slightly.

"Hey there short king ~" He purred out, waggling his fingers at Lucifer. The devil, at first, frog blinked slowly until he realized that Angel was hitting on him as he coughed up suddenly, laughing awkwardly as he pulled slightly his sleeveless turtleneck.

"UHM ANYWAY- You two were talking about Al right?" The king immediately changed the subject. Angel got even more confused ans pretended to pout when Husk chuckled at his failed attempt at getting interesting results.

The cat demon was the one to answer him.

"I've been on his leash for more than a decade now and yet he still somehow manage to impress me each time he tried to "soothe down" a sweet dish. Le alika maty tena, one time he put sauce in my mofo akondro, that was a really low blow." Husk added in as Angel couldn't help but whistle, knowing that Husk, despite swearing like an old sailor, would rarely use his native language to insult ever even for something mundane.

Lucifer, like the being he was, obviously knew and spoke malagasy and he couldn't help but be even more surprised, knowing Husk rarely use his native language to insult.

"Wait what he does that now?? I knew that he really hates anything related to sugar but this seems a bit extreme-!"

"Isn't that weird too that this fucker do like cooking? I'm still surprised he didn't poisoned all of us until now" Angel said, actually getting wary at the realization but Lucifer waved his hand around as Husk shook his head to confirm that the spider's suspicions were useless.

"He ain't going do that. Cooking is actually one of his passions plus he ain't that clueless, he knows that people are not that allergic to sweets like him." Husk argued back, even him telling that information felt weird on his tongue but it was true, Alastor knows that he was the only one in the hotel that was so repulsed of anything other than salt or spicy.

He would have shocked Husk if it wasn't for the fact that Alastor was just full of salt himself.

During the small conversation, Lucifer pondered on his own and couldn't help but slightly rolls his eyes in tiredness even though it was morning already. He knew about his husband's loath for anything sugary, he was already used to it when Alastor would put deer liver in between pancakes to lessen down its savor or drink his dark coffee with nothing else but the devil had to admit that this was just too much!

Something, Lucifer was actually convinced that this guy's doberman like taste was actually the main reason why he went in Hell, not the murders and the cannibalism or whatnot.

"-Plus Charlie wanted me to hang a few decorations with her and Vag. After all, it has been a while since I even celebrated Halloween." Husk admitted as he shuffled a few tarot cards on his own as Angel titled his head to the side, those rare calm expression on his face that were only reserved to the cat bartender shown as he slowly nodded his head before raising an eyebrow.

"Really?"

Husk shrugged.

"I've only done famadihana when I was a kid, don't know if that counts."

Lucifer didn't minded that the two didn't aknowledged him, in fact, he didn't felt the need to be seen on the current but upon hearing the oh so familiar therm of Samhain that regular people would use differently, he perked up slightly.

When Charlie was just barely a 5 feet tall naphil, Halloween was her favorite holiday and day of the year, mainly because Lucifer would usually told her about how the gape between humans and them demons would meet each other without discord or chaos. Of course, it was stupid to think that way especially when during the time Charlie was a toddler, humans would rather torture and brainwash their own kind if they were queers or just left-handed. Sending a pale child whose friends were goats plushies during the Victorian era would have probably made polemic and she would mainly ended up in an horrible church disguised as a rehabilitation center than with friends going to school while munching on apple slices.

And then people wondered why Lucifer didn't liked humans, especially less sinners but a few were an exception.

Now, unfortunately, he didn't knew anymore if it was still her favorite time of the year but upon hearing the familiar words again, it seemed that it was unchanged until now.

That information made him smile warmly and furthermore when one thing led to another.

It has been eons since he hasn't made his famous candied apples!

He remembered when Charlie would be crazy about those sweet things and he himself would be more than thrilled to cook those delicacies just for her. After all, even if Lucifer would not be that such of a great cook aside from his iconic pancakes (was the devil even know for his flour and syrup? Meh at least he was known in the hotel for this and there weren't even that many of patrons here), Lucifer's second most favorite was making those delicacies topped with melted caramel and in some times edible glitters.

"Did she thought about celebration Halloween or not?" He suddenly asked out loud, only now realizing that he actually didn't listened to their conversation, a guilty feeling gnawing in his guts.

Both Angel and Husk looked at the devil before the smaller demon shrugged, unsure.

"She didn't confirmed yet if she really wants or not."

"Well knowing our lil ray of sunshine, the reason she wouldn't accept would be probably because of the fact she's constantly busy as a nun during vespers." Angel added.

Lucifer faltered slightly. Well, that not really the answer he hoped but at least he still had a bit of glimmer that he would have an excuse to cook again and now for a wider range.

Oh well! Technically now he had an excuse!

Again, without knowing, he bid farewell to the two as he vanished in a red mist as Angel also had an unexpected filming where he needed as a major role, leaving Husk again with a counter that he just barely cleaned who now had glitters on it.

Husk sighed deeply.

•• <<────≪•◦⚜◦•≫────>> ••

Early that day, the sin of Pride stood in front of the kitchen, his hands on his hips and a determined expression on his face while contemplating all around.

Today, he got up early to make those delicious snacks he used to make, hoping that his mind wouldn't play any tricks against him such as forgetting essential parts.

But he was lucky! He wasn't known for being the one with a clownfish memory! Details were hard but he could still keep in mind important matters.

Like his fall for example.

Ouch.

But anyway, this wasn't the main topic Lucifer was thinking about his famous candied apples. Without waiting furthermore, he summoned with a snap of fingers all the ingredients and the necessary ustensils he needed.

Taking a deep breath while tighting furthermore the apron around his waist, he stood in front of the kitchen counter, darting his gaze around.

"Let's see..." He thought to himself, rummaging through the tidied mess as he landed on the bright red apples. He smiled widely before he remembered a detail that almost made his face drop.

Oh yeah. Alastor.

Lucifer facepalmed as he grunted in annoyance at the realization. Of course his dumbass of a husband, like the weird ass cryptid he was, would be the exception! There's no way he was Lucifer was going to let him put a gizzard or deer blood on his sweets. It was his dish after all!

Suddenly, he perked up as an idea sprouted in his mind. Well, if Alastor wasn't able to put those horrendous mixes in Lucifer's concoction... Then Lucifer will be the one doing those horrendous mixes!

That sicken him slightly but it was better than having a heart attack when someone else do it.

Well, changes of plan! He WAS going to make those candied apples and for an annoying exigeant Bambi, a version with more savory taste.

Thus started a whole operation in the kitchen that was divided in two, one side of the counter being filled with sugar, melter butter and butterscotch while the other had blood from who knows where coated with smells like pepper or sauce.

The devil breathed out heavily, wiping his sweaty forehead with his arm as he admired with pride the plate with the bright, sparkling fruits that were put on it topped off with still fresh caramel alongside with edible, shiny glitters. Then, his gaze darted to the other plate who looked more like a poor representation of what foods look like from a 5 stars restaurant.

The key words were poor representation.

BUT if he had to be honest, Lucifer was surprised that Alastor's part was okay ish and actually something alright?? Well- the coagulated blood topped with sesame was probably a churn sensation for delicate stomach bur Alastor's was definitely concrete thus he wouldn't mind it.

He just hoped that the smell would not be unbearable for the others, because eating something sweet with the scent of cooked steak wasn't probably the best feeling.

•• <<────≪•◦⚜◦•≫────>> ••

"Oh my gosh dad you really didn't had to!" Charlie's enthusiastic voice rang out, already full of emotions as Vaggie raised an eyebrow, curious, at the frozen syrupy apple that she was holding before she took a small, tentative bite and soon her eye instantly gleamed.

"Wow it's actually good-!" The fallen exorcist added and couldn't help but take another, smiling furthermore when she caught a bit of liquid butterscotch with it.

Lucifer couldn't help but also bust his chest in joy and satisfaction, seeing that his desserts were a success for everyone who either shares because of the size of the fruit or it's excessive yet enjoyable sweetness and crunchiness.

The short king looked around, his heart swelling even more when he saw the bright, giddy expression on Charlie's face just like when she was still a child as she told the other hotel's residents about some memories she had with her pa' and then in general.

"It seems that everyone is quite enjoying your delicacies apparently" A familiar radio filled voice suddenly rang in as Lucifer felt a presence materializing next to him.

He didn't needed to turn his head to know that Alastor was looking at the candied apples with a hint of disdain. Lucifer chuckled slightly.

"Well it has been a while I didn't spoiled charlie or even anyone with snack so I decided to prepare something" Lucifer explained, shrugging.

Alastor simply hummed.

The two, for the smallest of seconds, just stood next to each other, enjoying in certain degrees the sight of either Charlie holding Vaggie's hand while she was discussing with Cherri or Nifty, high on sugar, fastly crawling around while Angel tried his best to hold her in place with Husk slightly snickering at the interaction. After a few ephemeral moments, Lucifer spoke up, his tone smug yet a spike of uncertainty flared up alongside.

"How was your version of candied apples though?"

"If your version of candied apples was putting anything that was my liking then you should probably reevaluate your cooking skills" Alastor said casually, his permanent smile getting wider when Lucifer hit him on the shoulder.

"Hey! I'm not the one who's so repulsed by sugar I need to tone it down with spice!" The king argued back, revolted as such words. Alastor only barked out a laugh.

"Well technically I like sugar-"

"Say what now?" Lucifer deadpanned at him, already preparing himself to shake Alastor as a result of his efforts to make something at least potable for Alastor. The deer raised an eyebrow.

"-But! I'm not the kind of indulge myself in it."

Lucifer raised an eyebrow at him.

"... So you don't like sugar."

"Indubitably."

Lucifer sighed, massaging his forehead but then Alastor continued, his tone more sincere now.

"Still, I appreciated your efforts into making sure your dish is adequate to my tastes. Really." The deer added as his husband's eyes widened a bit at the aveu before he smiled back at him, a snort almost leaving his mouth.

"Well, that's something I didn't knew you would s-"

"The venison was horrible though."

Lucifer this time didn't hesitated as he hit, this time harder, Alastor who couldn't help but cackle, Charlie looking at the two from afar, still smiling at their interactions.

Maybe she shouldn't tell her father that she smelled the blood on a few apples, he seemed happy enough.

•• <<────≪•◦⚜◦•≫────>> ••

Holy shit I went past day one what a miracle! 😱😱😱😦😦😦😦 /Hj

Anyway again sorry for any shitty writing it will happen again.

4 Minutes ep 3 Liveblogging

opening with another dead body, killed the same way and in the same place as Tonkla's brother. HMMM.

Yay my boy Dome is awake!

re: the intubation Something something Tyme having to be in control and desperately trying to stop the inevitable something something trying to save Great something something Great's powers. It's not fully formed, but it's in my brain bubbling.

The way the clocks change back to normal when other people are around and the message on the coffee changed... i love it. but lmao poor Great is going to have a breakdown. "Can you forgive me?" is very interesting! What exactly do you need forgiving for, alternate timeline Tyme???

"which friend?" because lmao Great knows he doesn't have friends. Tyme is such a stalker. luckily Great is into it. But it really is kinda Sus.

LMFAO at Great getting yeeted back 4 minutes because he tried to reschedule a date with Tyme for a night he didn't have an assignment due! Goddess of Time really said Fuck Them Grades, Get That Dick. The theory that the visions are all leading Great to Tyme just seems more and more accurate. Great opening up to Tyme about his visions is going to be Important.

Tyme asking Den the good questions. Why 4 Minutes. (it's totally the brain death thing)

they're so cute playing the rigged arcade games. the black and white stuffed kitties have Thematic Color Coding.

Hmm so wait, am I getting this right? Great's mom was a mistress? and became Second Wife after First Wife/Korn's Mom killed herself, and Great was already born then? I see... more rancid family dynamics.

Frizzy Hair girl is in danger, I feel it. She's gonna die at some point. Anyway no shame for the frizzy hair i know mine would also be looking a mess in the Bangkok heat and I don't think illegal gambling rings like, provide flat irons or curl cream. Aaaand she's immediately caught. Her name is Nan...what was Tyme's ex-girlfriend's name again? just pondering.

Chief himself taking Win off the case. Yup, sounds about right.

LMAO at Tonkla trying to get high to stop a breakdown and Immediately the Hot Cop shows back up at his door. double LMAO at Tonkla calling his ass out for liking him. i love Tonkla so much.

the transition from "I shouldn't be doing this you're still grieving" to them banging is perfection, love the classical music in the background it really fits the vibe.

Tonkla really just wants SOMEONE to fuck him raw but keeps getting denied. funniest plotline.

"you can call me anytime" Win already being a better situationship than Korn. This is gonna be so messy.

"If you don't stop prying I'll kill you!" hmmm that exclamation mark really makes me think it's Title. And that would certainly tie some plot things together...but what is the motive other than Title being The Worst?

Great diagramming everything out and well on his way to a murderboard is a Good Choice on his part. Keep track of everything. Anyway, he's right to be freaked out by the change to 11:02 that's some ominous countdown shit even if it's not literally a countdown.

"he's not answering my calls" he's literally a surgeon who sometimes works in an emergency room??? like, I get that you're freaked out I would be too you're so valid my needy wet cat of a man but like Tyme's prrrrrrrobably not ghosting you he could literally be wrist deep in someone's chest cavity right now. give the man a minute, damn.

Ahaha, that ending was so funny a perfect cliffhanger. I love this show so damn much.

[nicohischier]

get to know me

tagged by: @hischiersjohnston thank you bestie

didn't tag anyone* due to my chronic fear of being annoying but pls snoop all you like

do you make your bed? no, i'm simply way too lazy in the morning to make my bed.

favourite number? 8! i was born on 8/8 so i guess the number just stuck out to me lol

what’s your job? i'm currently in that super fun period of being recently graduated with no prospects, no experience, and no network. also a lot of anxiety. i'm working on it.

if you could go back to school, would you? yeah. i still might go back in a few years to do education or something.

can you parallel park? once upon a time i could, but now i don't drive (classic lack of car woes) so i'm pretty comfortable in saying i can't parallel park anymore.

do you think aliens are real? yes, absolutely. i'm not saying i believe that there's a whole civilized society hanging out a few billion light years away, but the category of aliens extends into every living life form, no matter how insentient or microscopic. the universe is simply too vast for me to even entertain the idea that earth is the only planet or other celestial body capable of sustaining plant life or single cell organism or whatnot.

can you drive a manual car? no! tbh at this point it's been so long since i've drove period, that idk if i'm even allowed to say i can drive an automatic lmao

guilty pleasure? i cannot deny that i have spent money on genshin to get characters/weapons and while i fully acknowledge that i've given into the gacha trap, i spend responsibly and never in excess. it's a game i genuinely love and i do believe that adults are free to spend their money wherever they wish. some people buy cigarettes, i buy little anime characters.

tattoos? world's saddest no. i would like to get some tho, i'm just generally the type of person who gets super invested in something for a while and then drops it after a while, which includes tattoo ideas. right now i'm flirting with the cassiopeia constellation (name of my favourite kpop groups fandom), "we don't need the memories" which is a team motto from haikyuu, line art of a cat because i'm a cat person, and some others with personal significance. and some more fandom ones. but fandom ones are finicky so. shrug.

favourite colour? i do dearly love the colour red. also a big fan of taupe, which is. probably the most boring answer i could give. "oh yeah my favourite colour? beige." god.

favourite type of music? to the surprise of hopefully none of you, i'm a kpop fan. i also really love whatever genre of music guys like alexander stewart and lewis capaldi make.

do you like puzzles? yes so much! i got so into a puzzle the other day that i was up until 5am doing it like i fr just didn't notice how long i was doing it 😭

any phobias? i used to have such a bad fear of spiders. now it's just big ones that freak me out or ones that are on me. i'm working on getting over it though. bugs in general make me feel a bit sick to me stomach tho i won't lie.

favourite childhood sport? i used to be a gymnastics kid lol. was super into pro gymnasts for a little bit, but generally it was a sport i preferred actually doing.

do you talk to yourself? yes and it's so embarrassing because i fucking do it in public without realizing. one day i was in the bookstore talking myself through choosing a book to buy when someone turned the corner and was like "oh! it's just you!". that was almost my 13th reason i am so fucking serious.

tea or coffee? tea if it's hot, coffee if it's cold.

first thing you wanted to be when growing up? wanted to be a vet soooo bad. then i grew up and realized how scary chemistry and biology are and figured maybe i would leave that to the science brained people 😭

what movies do you adore? well my letterboxd top movies are inception, les miserables, the outsiders, and the old guard which is. sorta accurate. the first three are definitely true. i could slot miracle (2004), brokeback mountain, legally blonde, kingsman, etc. into my fave movies list over TOG if i'm being honest but. yknow how it is.

tagging: @sportsnet tyler do this or else.

happy birthday to me!! premier league cmjf that is going NOWHERE. this is IT. just a snippet that will not be continued EVER

cut for length, sfw, ~870 words

-

» Stop chatting shit about my pass rate, you talentless hack. Just because you're not on the field anymore and your jealous

Punk looks at his phone. Looks at the timestamp on the message; 1:06am, and the time on his phone, 5:52am, and then wonders how the fuck Friedman got his phone number to send him this directly.

He recites an internal mantra about professionalism, impartiality, and conducting himself well in any work done outside of the TV studio, and then ignores all of it in favour of composing a reply.

« Don't think I won't block you here as well as twitter. You're on a team, not a one-man show, and I know your coaches have told you about this

He hits send and almost immediately regrets it because the kid does have coaches to teach him this, and he isn’t one of them. His current job is to give post-match analysis on a fucking football highlights show, be a pundit playing off a couple others, not to have every word he says about City’s, admittedly, top centre-forward be dissected by the man himself.

The universal symbol of a furiously typed response appears, and Punk cuts him off with a quick message of his own.

« Go to sleep, Max

Hopes the use of his first name might actually encourage it, but instead, five minutes later, his phone vibrates.

» Fuck OFF, Takeshita wasn't in position to receive and we would of gifted it to Zayn if I passed it which I'm sure you would be THRILLED [1/2]

» about, you're biases for your old team are showing yet again you old dickhead!!! [2/2]

He presses his hand to his face, rubbing at his closed eyelids because he isn’t getting into an argument with City’s fastest rising star at arse-o’clock in the fucking morning, but apparently, he is.

…Well, if he’s going to get into it, he can at least do it caffeinated.

He pushes himself out of bed, tests his weight on his bad knee, the same way he does every morning. Larry stirs, hopping off the bed, probably in hopes of a walk, and Punk looks out of the window at the sheets of rain pouring from a sky that would be slate-grey if the sun were up. Thinks, maybe not this morning, bud.

He makes for the kitchen. Scoops out some ground coffee, tamps it down in the portafilter before mounting it in the machine, checking the water in the back, and pressing the button.

By the time he’s done all that there are another 3 texts in his inbox.

» Just because you were one of the greats before your decrepid body have out on you, don't think you know how the game has evolved in the last [1/3]

» seven years, I'm the past present and future of this fucking sport I don't need to pass you daft twat I just need to score goals and I've [2/3]

» scored more than you in less games, more goals + more possession + less games means I am BETTER THAN YOU. [3/3]

Punk rolls his eyes. It’s a good thing he’s a quality player. If it weren’t for his nightmarish attitude at times, he could be truly great.

Punk thinks he’d have done well in the game back in the nineties. A throwback to the old days of booting the ball down the field, rather than the more technical back and forth of the modern game.

The lax attitude to rules and on-pitch violence wouldn’t hurt, either.

« Record for number of yellow cards in a season too. Maybe you should try harder to not have your gorgeous fouls observed

He hits send and immediately realises his autocorrect mistake.

« Horrendous**. You could have shattered Garcia's knee, it was a disgusting tackle, and I see you didn't comment on me saying that on motd

Too late.

» "Gorgeous" lmao your such a fucking creep. Bet you get off on watching your own old tackles you freak

Another eye roll. This conversation is going nowhere, and as much as he wants to insinuate that Friedman has definitely got off watching Punk’s old matches, because he’s also seen those interviews, Punk’s poster on his wall, favourite player growing up and all that, those aren’t the sort of messages he wants to have to answer to on his next Match of the Day appearance. These are damning enough as they are.

« Stopping this here. Go to sleep.

He gets a 🖕 in response, but nothing else. Breathes a sigh of relief. Grabs his coffee and sits down at the kitchen counter, sipping at it, watching the rain belt at the patio doors.

His phone vibrates again on the table and he thinks, what now, before he sees it’s an email this time, and his heart jumps in his chest.

Skim-reads the whole thing, and then reads it again, in detail.

We look forward to you joining the team.

As a coach.

For Manchester City.

He isn’t thinking about Friedman. He isn’t thinking about Friedman at all, and he certainly isn’t thinking of the lessons he can teach him on actually being part of a team.

Isn’t thinking of having to deal with the little shit in person on a daily basis.

... it definitely beats Match of the Day, though.

Ok ok ok fuck you, were starting it.

And by it, I mean this blog - the way I just yapped to myself for twenty minutes in the shower about what to say - and now I have no idea.

But I guess I should introduce myself - even though - holy fuck I'm tired of introductions, like Jesus, just this last week of school, it's just constant! "Hi!, Hello!" "What's your name and pronouns?!? Oh, how about fuck you and fuck this!!! :D" Like it's exhausting I do think that's more a me thing than a general thing, like "Hi, here I am, here you go, you can forget me now."

But either way, my name is Rodbei... because that's the normal way and I am trying my best not to dox myself, my pronouns are ??/!! in the way that I have no clue and do your best!

I am doing this because I am seventeen and I just moved out and this is probably a very important time in my life I'm supposed to look back on?? But regardless I can't remember shit for shit and I should write it down so here we go:

Today I had 3 alarms - 5:00, 5:30, and 6:00 because I have to bike to school at 7:30 and be there at 8:00 and it sucks? I mean it's okay but ughhh no one likes autumn Mondays. It was cold and I didn't want to get up, but today was a good day because I could eat breakfast (normally eating breakfast is nauseating and ends with throwing up in a trashcan). So chocolate "musli," banana, and coffee were my start this morning. Also watched Smallish Beans' newest video because I am actually five years old ffs.

I met up with... should I make fake names?? Fine, I guess, I'll introduce my best "school" friend... umm... umm Red?!??... I'm going to forget that but okay. Me and Red biked to school together; Red had an electric bike while I struggled on my normal one. It was nice though since the past week has just been (ok I'm at a mixed art school so half the time we're at a normal school and the other part we're at an art school) and this past week we've been at the art school. But I live literally 30 seconds away from that school so no biking, but honestly biking is nice... downhill - too bad my school school is at the top of a giant hill -

But otherwise, school was fine. Two new students, though, which doesn't really change anything because I am a loser with zero social ability. Like, I swear I have never felt so out of place at a freaking ART SCHOOL and I am normally the art kid. Like, WHAT. But two new students, an emo kid, and some blond girl. Maybe I'll talk to the emo kid, but he reminds me of people who are too cool to try to make friends. And I am the most AWKWARD person ever. Like, I don't know how I do it. It's like a talent where I just cannot do normal small talk.

That was the interesting part of school. Red went home early because they're stupid and always a little bit sick. We had 4 subjects: movie, English, history, and math. They all sucked apart from the movie one.

But, oh my freaking god, you would think the teachers know how to teach neurodivergent kids. But they still make us sit still for 50 minutes while they talk at a board. NO ONE IS UNDERSTANDING SHIT.

My lunch today was a ham and cheese sandwich, an apple, a cereal bar, and a Caprisun because I'm lazy.

After school, I raced home and ate some crappy noodles. Then I watched some Remadora bloopers because I realized I still had access to TT Patreon. YIPPE. That was the highlight of my day, I think. LMAO.

After that, Red called me, and we went shopping and made tomato soup. I bought bread forgetting I froze some earlier like an idiot, and I bought the amazing, the legendary, CANNED WHIPPED CREAM. I was never allowed to have that as a kid. YIPPE YIPPE YIPPE.

I cleaned Red's room because I'm built weird while they made us tomato soup. We ate on the floor, and I did the dishes like I always do.

Then I came back here and rotted on TikTok. Also, I planned with Monke because it's an inside joke that we could maybe go to a Girl in Red concert in two weeks. But we're both broke. YIPPE.

Also, there's a party Friday that I'm only scared to go to because I'm going alone. And I'm gonna go home this weekend and maybe watch a movie with, let's say, Monke and Bunny.

God, they would hate me for that.

Song of today is: "I Wanna Be Your Girl" by Girl in Red.

Have you ever seen a fox in person?    Uhhhhh I don't think so. I don't think we have any species here either?

Would you say you have a quiet mind or do you have a lot of thoughts?    Most of the time my head's running. I can totally space out too, but for the most part I'm thinking of something; worrying, even.

When did you last do something brave?    Not screaming when a giant lizard hung out at my table when I worked at a coffee shop yesterday. I'm talking fucking huge, lmao. I was telling my friends pre-BTS Robyn would have freaked out 100%, but knowing how much the boys love animals it kind of influenced me at the moment to chill out and just let the gigantic lizard be.

Have you ever seen a magician?    They are commonplace gimmicks at every Filipino kid's birthday party.

What's something you remember from your childhood that you wish you could experience again?    My grandfather coming home from work and bringing Dunkin' Munchkins for me and my cousin, and Piknik for my sister.

Do you believe in karma? Why or why not?    I don't take it seriously or view it in a spiritual sense, but it's like, it's satisfying when you see people who've wronged you not doing or looking well.

Do you have a tiktok account?    I do but 95% of the time I use it for work. The remaining 5% is when I remember to check through the app for fan edits, heh. Occasionally I'll be on TikTok to look through Jungkook's likes as well because he's taken to like crack content these days like the Gen Z that he is.

Do you prefer the scent or color of lavender?    The color is fine, but I'm not the biggest fan of the scent. I prefer beachy or sweeter notes.

Would you rather live in a castle or a cottage?    Castle. I feel like I'd feel too suffocated in a tiny cottage.

What type of music do you listen to the least and why?    Country does not appeal to me at all.

When did you last visit a library?    Around four years ago. I was in college and needed to borrow a book.

What's one of your favorite memories from staying up late?  Like, regardless of the time in my life? My favorite memories staying up late would be from high school when I was deep in the wrestling fandom and had my own circle of friends, all from UK/US, that I'd only get to talk to past midnight. We were really really really close and they'd also stay up for me on weekdays, when I'd be coming home from school.

The whole 1D craze also happened when I was in high school! The boys used to go live the same way K-Pop idols do now, but given the time differences they always did it when it was like 1 AM here. I remember they even did 1D Day - something I definitely was not able to stay up all night for, haha.

Have or would you ever wear a necklace with someone's initial on it? I don't imagine having a problem with that. Initials are intimate and simple enough for me.

What last made you laugh out loud?    I was watching In the Soop and couldn't help but laugh at a scene where the boys were asking Namjoon left and right to help with the chores. Poor guy couldn't cook and Taehyung had already beaten him to the sink to wash the dishes, so it led to a hilarious 5-minute visual of him frantically running everywhere to grant everyone's requests.

Do you usually keep water by your bedside at night?    Yes. I never actually end up drinking from it as I sleep through the night, but I still like keeping one around just in case I get thirsty or I wake up with my throat feeling dry.

What's an interesting fact about yourself?    I have seen every Audrey Hepburn movie.

What did you last heat up in a microwave?    A chocolate chip cookie.

Would you consider yourself lucky?   My standing in the life lottery is average, I'd say. I'm fortunate compared to the average Filipino in that my family lives extremely comfortably; we can afford luxuries like multiple cars, traveling 2-3 times a year, can keep up with the latest tech, a house that can comfortably fit 5 – all things I'm very very grateful for.

Life in the Philippines itself though, it's a little...you can understand why many opt for better lives overseas. Salaries are offensively low; government was, is, and will always reek of corruption; everything about Metro Manila is gross and so not tourist-friendly unless you deliberately go to the places that are essentially facades like BGC and Rockwell; people wake up at 5 AM to get to work at 9 AM/end work at 6 PM only to get home by 10 PM because public transport is shit.

I'm lucky given the circumstances, but we as a country, not so much.

What kind of pizza did you eat last?    We got a pepperoni pizza but I got rid of the pepperoni on mine.

What kind of shampoo do you use?    Dove or Palmolive. I have both and I just use whatever my hand reaches out for first for the day.

How many blue objects are in the room you're in?    A number, but most prominent would be my two foldout sleeping bags which I use as a mini sofa.

Would you rather visit an art museum or an aquarium?    I'd love to go to an art museum over and over again. Aquariums can be a big question mark for me cos I never know how the animals are treated when guests are not there.

Do you prefer sweeter cereal over unsweetened?    Yes.

If you could build a 5 artist/band lineup to your dream music festival.. which ones would you choose?    BTS, SHINee, Paramore, Beyoncé, Michael Jackson.

What's a habit you have broken or are currently trying to break?    I haven't been biting my nails primarily because I'm on braces which make it virtually impossible to do.

Have you ever volunteered at an animal shelter?    I have not volunteered, but I donate whenever I can. Just this morning, one of the animal rescue NGOs I closely follow opened an subscription option wherein all the money will be used to buy daily food for all of their rescues. Didn't even think twice about signing up.

Is there anything currently bothering you?    Not at the moment.

How many stuffed animals do you have on your bed?    Technically not stuffed animals but I have Tata and Koya plushies.

How much is too much to spend on a pair of shoes?    I don't see myself spending anything more than ₱25,000.

What's the strangest thing that you've ever seen someone collect?   Napkins. Like, table napkins/tissues with brand logos. Filipino moms do it a lot and I honestly don't understand why lol. Also, fancy plates.

Have you recently been to a concert?    Yeah I'd say June was pretty recent. I flew out to Thailand to see Yoongi. Here's what it looked like! :)

Who did you last have a phone conversation with?    HR from another company because my former associate had placed me as a reference contact. I personally wasn't too happy with her performance during my time with her but I figured I should talk her up so she can be on her way to open up a new chapter in her career.

What's the most dominant personality trait you have?    Passionate, I feel like.

Do you ever watch sports?    I'll check in on wrestling every now and then but that's it. I've been keeping tabs on the World Cup too but haven't really watched any match since the Philippines got booted out of the tournament.

What's had the biggest impact on your day?  Namjoon went live and that's how I came to find out Moni's passed...

What's your least favorite cheese?  Anything that's too pungent and tastes more closely to sock.

What did you last have as a snack?    Camembert-flavored chips from Japan.

What's your favorite decoration in your place of residence?    We have an abaca basket on our coffee table that I'm obsessed with.

Would you rather read a book or watch a movie?    Watch a movie, for the most part. I'll only read a book if it's a memoir.

What's your plans for the upcoming week?    SO!!!!!!!!!!! I'm really excited because I've been meaning to go to the Audrey Hepburn exhibit they recently opened here in Manila, but apparently they had contacted our agency for some needed support and now I get to be there for work this Monday and I AM REALLY EXCITED. Never mind that I'll be working because I'll just be really happy and giddy being there!

Other than that it's just business as usual, but I am looking forward to Friday because we have a long weekend ahead :)

When did you last feel rushed?    This morning when I was running late for my 9 AM dentist appointment.

What was the last thing to scare you?    Cooper was making worrying gagging/hawking sounds earlier tonight, but fortunately they didn't last long. It was scary because they were sounds that never came out of him before.

Have you drank enough water today?    Too much. I didn't drink water at all yesterday, and my body knew that and by instinct I just drank way too many glasses today.

What's your top 3 favorite fruits?    Avocado. That's it, really.

What season do you think is the most comfortable?    We don't have the four seasons.

What lie do you say the most?    That I am happy with my work and that I don't have any issues to raise. Don't get me wrong, I am(!) happy – just not always; and simply going, "Yeah, I'm happy" lets me avoid complicated conversations that need not be complicated to begin with.

I'm also truthfully not happy with my accounts and I think it's starting to show, but that's a conversation I'd rather have another time.

What website do you frequent often besides Bzoink?    It's a tie between Twitter and YouTube.

Do you have anything due soon?    Yeah, something for work.

What did you last consume that you thought was nasty?    A few days ago I was dealing with a sore throat and happened to have KFC chicken shortly after I took a lozenge. Apparently an immediate side effect is the aftertaste because my chicken, the rice, and the gravy all tasted like SHIT. I truthfully thought I got a rancid order so I told my mom that they might have given me an expired meal, so she tried it and exasperatedly told me that no it's not KFC, it's your medicine. LOL

Anyway the taste change hadn't been going away so I just gave my mom the meal before it went cold.

What's a song you feel describes your mood most right now?  Life Goes On. Take your pick – BTS, Agust D...both are applicable.
