Hello! Could you write platonic Dad!Adam headcanons? Thank you,
A/N: Lol. Donât expect too much out of this guy becauseâŚitâs Adam. Heavily focused on him rather than the reader, sorry. Also, I might have gone a little overboard with this one because, uh, this was supposed to be only headcanons as you said, and the not-requested âdrabbleâ ended up being a few scenarios with a one-on-one convo with Adam and Sera at the end. 3rd POV and the reader is referred to as they/it, btw. Enjoy.
Holy sh!t I reread your request again and I donât know if you meant that the reader is supposed to be the child or fuuuuuuuuâtell me if thatâs not what you wanted, I had fun writing this nonetheless.
Words: 727 (not including the bullet points, edited)
Warnings: Very vulgar language, Sex is mentioned, Adam being Adam
âââ
How Adam would be as a Father (Reader is the child)
⢠first things first, the only way I can see Adam become a dad was because he accidentally impregnated a chick when she fucking swore that, oh, no, Adam, Iâm on birth control. Oh, donât worry, Adam, you donât have to finish in my mouth. Oh, no need, Adam, Iâve got it covered. Oh, itâs okay, Adamâyes, this is Adam mocking her
⢠so imagine his surprise when he found a fucking child at his doorstep crying like a little bitch
⢠âWhat the fuck?â was his first reaction
⢠heâd find a note that said something-something about oh who gives a fuck about her and her sob story about having to leave the child in his care?
⢠what mattered wasââTHAT FUCKING BITCH LIED TO ME!â
⢠after that whole ordeal, he would sit in his gigantic ass living room, slumping on his couch with arms crossed and grumbling complaints as if he was the child
⢠the first few weeks he would really just let someone else take care of the kid
⢠Lute would be the caretaker most of the time since sheâs around Adam a lot
⢠the problem was that sheâs an exterminator
⢠her purpose was to kill sinners and she certainly didnât have babysitting on her list of skills
⢠so eventually, the responsibilities would fall back on Adam
⢠of course, he had attempted to get in contact with the woman
⢠he came back with nothing
⢠wait, nothing? Holy shit, he left the babyâ
⢠and, if youâre wondering, I donât think Heaven has adoption centers or whatnot because everyone is responsible when theyâre thinking of having a child
⢠but, hey, how hard would looking after a child would be?
⢠probably accidentally dropped the kid once before
⢠will get mad that he canât do his guitar solos because they would start to cry even louder
⢠has probably nearly suffocated it by leaving a pillow in their crib
⢠doesnât know how to hold it properly
⢠eventually got it right by observing some of Heavenâs residents
⢠thinks heâs the best dad because of it
⢠speaking of residents, they most likely donât know that the first man has a child
⢠dude, you really think heâd be caught dead with a kid?
⢠nuh-uh
⢠sometimes forgets he has a kid
⢠have left it in hisâI headcanonâcondominium completely unattended sometimes
⢠so, uh, yeahâŚnot looking good for Adam here
letâs get on with the scenarios, shall we?
âââ
Adam covered his ears with his silk pillows, trying to muffle the sounds of that bratâs whining.
âUgh! Shut up, Shut up!â Of course, it didnât shut up.
He banged his head on the pillow repeatedly, swearing he was going to fucking throw this fucking child off the fuCKING BALCONY IF IT DOESNâT SHUT UPâ
He had enough and went over to the crib in the corner of his bedroom, snarling. âYâknow, since your mommy was such a quiet whore youâd expect the brat to act the same. She shouldâve been honored that she even got my dick. Mine. And this is how she fucking repays me?â The child in question looked up at their father, their cries coming to an eventual stop as he rambled on and on. âFinally.â
The moment he left their sight, however, they started to cry once more.
âOH MY GODââ
âââ
Adam arrived home tired as shit balls.
âNot fucking now, bitch,â he dismissed when they reached for him from their place in the crib as he flopped himself on his king-sized bed. At least it wasnât crying. Rather, it was babbling and flailing its hands and feet. While it was a nice change, it was still annoying to listen to.
Eventually, he decided to shut it up and lazily dragged himself over to the crib, picking it up in his hands and setting it near his shoulder.
âUgh, there there. Or whatever.â He idly patted the childâs back, plopping back on his bed.
Surprisingly, the kid soon fell asleep without further complaints, nuzzling into their fatherâs comfortable robe.
Ugh, rude. It fell asleep before he could bitch about his day as he usually did. Instead, he grumbled his own day to himself, his eyelids growing heavy as time passed by.
Adam later dozed off with the baby in his arms, snoring loudly as his wings wrapped around him and the child in his seldom peaceful slumber.
âââ
The living room was dark. Heavenâs natural light poured through his open windows and the TV played a movie that was most definitely not suited for young audiences. At least it wasnât anything sexual. Heaven forbid.
In the midst of the oddly serene environment that is Adamâs residence, holy light flashed from beside his couch and the tall figure of Sera appeared. Adam instantly turned the TV off.
âAdam, pardon my intrusion. You still havenât submitted your forms and they were due yesterdayââ Sera interrupted herself when her eyes landed on the baby next to the first man.
âSera, what gives? Canât you see Iâm busy? Whereâs your sense of privacy? Jeez.â
âAdam, is that a child?â she asked rather accusatorily.
âUgh, yeah, so what?â
âI didnât think you wouldâwhereâs your wife?â She brushed her hair back behind her shoulder, her brows furrowed. âUm, I figured that after Lilith and Eveââ
âPshh, youâd think this guy would settle down for anyone? Puh-lease. Imagine a world where you canât fuck the original dick. Worse than any nightmare you could ever dream of.â Adam averted his gaze as his shoulders tensed up.
âSo you care for this child alone? By yourself?â Sera looked more worried than ever, which Adam instantly latched on to.
âAre you doubting me? I started humankindâI know what Iâm doing.â He settled his arms on the headrest, legs raising to rest on the coffee table as he gave a lazy shrug.
âHow long have you kept this child?â
âWhatâs with all the questions? Uh, I dunno, more than two months, I guess?â
âWhat is its name?â
âOh, uhâŚâ Shit. He didnât really think about that. He only kept calling it âkidâ or âbratâ. âAdam Jr!â he blurted out the first thing that went through his mind. âYeah, thatâs right, everyone would immediately know that this kid is from me, Adam.â
Sera only narrowed her eyes. âVery well. Iâm surprised you managed to keep this hidden from me. The childââ
âAdam Jr.â
ââŚAdam Jr. seems to be doing fine in your hands. But raising a child is no easy feat, Adam.â She took a deep breath in and closed her eyes momentarily. âWe will have our discussion regarding your work tomorrow. Have a good night.â
As the seraphim was engulfed with holy light once more, vanishing as quickly as she came, Adam was left to think if the hassle was really worth this brat.

Gracie Abrams is in the middle of telling me about the new music sheâs writing when a thought stumps her. She pulls out her phone to Google the answer: When did her chart-topping second album, The Secret of Us, actually drop this year?âWe started making new stuff the same week that we finished [that album]. Or actually, no, even earlier. When did the album come out?â she says, before trying to guess the release date: Top of the year? April? âWhat month are we in? December. When the f*ck did that album come out?â The page finally loads. âJune 21st! Holy sh*t! I am losing my mind, if you cannot tell. Time isnât as real as it once was.âThat about sums up the story of Abramsâ life lately. In just a few months, sheâs graduated from certified next-big-thing to actual big thing, thanks to her skillful songcraft and some excellent timing. After releasing two albums â 2023âs Good Riddance and then Secret, which got a deluxe edition in October â the 25-year-old scored a true star-making hit with âThatâs So True,â a begrudging farewell to an ex thatâs been inescapable whether youâre swiping through TikTok or flipping through the radio.It helped that, along the way, sheâs opened for two of the most powerful women in the world: Vice President Kamala Harris, who recruited Abrams to rev up Gen Z with a campaign rally performance in Wisconsin this October; and, most crucially, Taylor Swift, who tapped Abrams to open for 49 shows of the Eras Tour and made a rare guest appearance on The Secret of Us track âUsâ â the dean of confessional songwriting teaming up with her brightest pupil.Acne Studios dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsSheâs even managed the rare feat of transcending her nepo-baby status â her dad is sci-fi director J.J. Abrams, her mother is production executive Katie McGrath â and flipping it back onto her parents. At a recent show in New York, I watched fans approach her father to take selfies, not because he made Star Trek and Star Wars movies, but because heâs Gracieâs dad. (As one fan jokingly put it: âThere is literally no way you knew JJ Abrams before Gracie unless ur like 50 like be for real.â)âTheyâre like, âWhat in the world?ââ Abrams says of her parentsâ reaction to her fame. âBut itâs really sweet.â And she has a new appreciation for her mom â âThe toughest person I know, and not a softieâ â after watching her interact with Abramsâ growing army of young listeners. âThe way that she treats people is how I want to treat people, and for me to see her be that way towards this community that cares so much about the musicâŚâ she says, her voice trailing off. âHer support and encouragement of my writing my whole life is the reason that Iâm doing any of this now.ââEvery time Iâve opened for Taylor, I watch and learn. I learned from her every time we have a conversation about the weather, even.âAbrams is telling me all this over breakfast in New York City, where sheâs days away from making her musical debut on Saturday Night Live. She arrives punctually at Buvette in the West Village, dressed in a striped shirt and navy trousers, a black fur hat covering the hair that launched a thousand bobs. She arrives alone, coming from her momâs nearby apartment, where sheâll be staying for the next few weeks. She seems remarkably calm and collected given the circumstances. Less than 36 hours ago, Abrams was on stage in front of 60,000 people in Vancouver, wearing a $75 thrifted wedding dress, performing for the final night of the Eras Tour.âEveryone had been crying all day. It felt like the last day of school backstage,â she says, sipping an oat milk cappuccino. âEveryone was walking around with their [Eras Tour] books, signing each otherâs books. We were all walking around with Sharpies.âLike most Swifties, Abrams is moving through the stages of grief over the end of the tour. âI watched the live streams on shows that I wasnât at,â she says. âIâm feeling emotional and grateful and in a state of shock that we donât, as a global community, get to experience that source of light anymore.â And sheâs especially appreciative of how being in Swiftâs orbit offers a kind of pop-star boot camp as she enters a new stratosphere of success. âI was just soaking up every moment of her show, too. Iâve basically been studying it for a year-and-a-half. Every time Iâve opened for her, I watch and learn. I learned from her every time we have a conversation about the weather, even.ââIt feels way easier to be alone in New York. And I love being alone.âWhen Abrams first started on the Eras Tour, two Taylorâs Version albums were just Easter eggs, the Poets had yet to be Tortured and âTolerate Itâ was still on the set list; Abrams herself was fresh off the release of her debut album. By the time she rejoined the tour this past October, âThatâs So True,â had just come out, and she could feel the way her life was changing in the vibrations of the stadium.âItâs funny to see what one song can do for engagement. In your head, youâre like, âOf course.â But itâs crazy when you get to see that week-by-week in a stadium,â she says. âIt was really wild. It felt different, for sure. There is something really psychotic about being able to hear voices in the stadium singing sh*t back at you. Itâs like, âWhat the f*ck?ââOttolinger top, David Koma skirt, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsâThatâs So Trueâ becoming Abramsâ biggest hit to date is both a plot twist and a no-brainer. She started writing it last year but didnât feel strongly about finishing it in time to put on The Secret of Usâ standard edition. Yet the songâs brash, self-aware lyrics are peak Abrams, embodying everything fans love about her. Since her first EP in 2020, sheâs been packing emotional wallops into the tight confines of a three-minute pop song, with the easy intimacy of that friend who sends two-minute-long voice notes. Even as Abrams barrels from one feeling right into the next, her moments of mess have an enviable cleverness to them. Just listen to the second verse of âThatâs So True,â where she manages to be both cheeky and snarling as she sifts through resentment for an ex whoâs moved on (and herself for not doing the same): âWhatâd she do to get you off?/ Taking off your shirt, I did that once/ Or twice/ No, I know, I know Iâll f*ck off/ But I think I like her, sheâs so fun/ Wait, I think I hate her, Iâm not that evolved.âAudrey Hobert, Abramsâ best friend and frequent writing partner, has an idea of why Abramsâ songs are so sticky, even when theyâre full of unconventional choices. âShe taught me about something called mouthfeel, which is when you see if words feel good all strung together, and Iâve never forgotten it,â she says. âSheâs hilarious and smart and fast and fun, just like she is when weâre not writing.ââThatâs So Trueâ went viral before it even came out: A snippet of Abrams playing the song acoustically with Hobert made the rounds on TikTok so quickly that Abrams added it to the set list of her headlining tour this fall. By the time she played two nights at Radio City Music Hall in New York â still days away from release â 90% of the crowd knew all the words, and even reenacted the lasso dance move Hobert made in the original video. (Hobert, who is also her roommate, is working on music of her own: âShe is brilliant and deserves all of the ears and eyes,â Abrams teases. âThe music sheâs making right now is my favorite sh*t ever. Youâll love it.â)âI feel really lucky that 95% of my interactions with strangers are not with creepy dudes.ââItâs such an angsty, sarcastic song,â Abrams says of the hit, which she finished this spring at New Yorkâs Electric Lady Studios with producer Aaron Dessner. âAudrey and I were drunk on the roof, writing it in tears, laughing. The initial lyrics were way gnarlier.â (âYou donât wanna know the first-draft lyrics,â Hobert tells me.) But thereâs still plenty of bite in the bridge, a rushed, panicking confession that became a TikTok prompt for everyone from Kelsea Ballerini (âI was like, âOh my God, you know who I am?ââ) to @grandadfrankk (a charming Irish septuagenarian with 7.7 million followers). In November, it became her first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.Also fueling the songâs rise: a new interest in Abramsâ growing celebritĂŠ, particularly her relationship with actor Paul Mescal, with whom she has been snapped by paparazzi several times over the last six months. (Mescal was also in attendance at the same New York show, and the pair were seen arriving hand in hand at this weekendâs SNL after-party.) Abrams keeps it brief when I ask how sheâs found navigating personal relationships under this new public microscope. âThat has nothing to do with me,â she says, straight-faced. âIt doesnât affect me.âLĂCHEN dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsRecently, Abrams got her own place in New York and is making the East Coast her home base. âEverything is more generative for me in New York. It feels way easier to be alone here. And I love being alone,â she says. Anonymity in the city is also a little easier to come by. âIâve definitely noticed a change [in people noticing me], and at the same time, my life day-to-day doesnât look different. I feel really lucky that 95% of my interactions with strangers are not with creepy dudes, for example, but young women or girls who are super emotional like I am and are able to express that. I appreciate that so much, and so I think that that is incredibly lucky.ââIâve seen people be cruel towards new listeners, which is a bummer and such a shame because itâs not remotely how I feel.âShe references a Maggie Rogers interview clip thatâs made the rounds online, in which the singer-songwriter talks about how easily everyone can become a public figure in the age of TikTok. âAnd of course there are different levels and this spectrum is wide,â Abrams says, âbut I do agree with what she said about the month you release an album, you get a lot more interaction with strangers in the street, but then six months later, things are quieter. Peopleâs attention spans are short, and thatâs all real and true.âThe videos about Abrams that I encounter on my own feeds are relatively wholesome: Fans are dissecting her lyrics, not her love life (and, sure, a few are begging for her ab routine). âIâm glad that thatâs what it feels like,â Abrams says. âI donât really feel very engaged with my algorithm. Iâm lucky that I donât get my own sh*t on it. The videos that I interact with are about people that live in the middle of nowhere by themselves, or I get a lot of pregnancy announcements from strangers to their friends and family. I get a lot of wild animals and sh*t. So I donât feel like Iâm seeing a lot of myself, which I like.âNext year, weâll all be seeing a lot of Abrams. The day before we meet, Abrams announced a new tour that features some of her biggest headlining shows to date, including multiple nights at arenas like New York Cityâs iconic Madison Square Garden. âWhen I think about playing bigger rooms, I think of the Eras Tour as this endless well of information for me,â she says. âI felt like I was at school for this job. I used to be freaked out about the concept of not playing in a 100-cap room. Itâs been a minute since I felt freaked out. If anything, you get to say hi to more people in bigger rooms.âFans have taken note of her habit of frequently waving to members of the crowd throughout her shows, as if she invited them personally. (âGracie waved at meâ videos are a TikTok genre unto themselves.) Why does she do it? âIâm in a room with other people. Theyâre waving at me, and I want to say whatâs up back,â she says plainly, as if to underscore that itâs not a bit â just a way of making even a big room feel a little bit smaller.Ottolinger top, David Koma skirt, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and rings, Tom Ford shoesLately, sheâs been thinking about the way her fan base has adjusted to an influx of new members. âIâve seen some sh*t online recently that has made meâŚâ she says, pausing to collect her thoughts. âI understand the whole concept of wanting to gatekeep small artists and feeling like you are responsible for finding somebody in their primary stages of development and then being responsible as well for helping share them with the world.âBut Iâve also seen, on the flip side, people be kind of judgmental or cruel towards new listeners,â she adds. âI think thatâs such a bummer and such a shame, to be honest, because itâs not remotely how I feel about it. Iâm like, âEveryone, f*cking get in here! Come! Be a part of this community!â It is generally really f*cking kind. Seeing some of that sh*t, Iâm like, âCome on â chill.ââFollowing our breakfast, Abrams is headed to Saturday Night Liveâs famed Studio 8H for her first visit this week. âFor some reason, booking the Eras Tour and booking SNL exist in the same part of my brain where I didnât know that chemicals in my head could release like that,â she says. âItâs such a privilege, an honor to do it. And also Chris Rock hosting is so f*cking nuts! I feel like I somehow cheated the system into being there for his show.â (She made at least one new fan with her performances: Barbra Streisand, who praised her on Instagram.)After a few Jingle Ball dates, a time-honored tradition for ascendant pop stars, sheâs done for the year; sheâll do Christmas in New York with her family and take a trip for New Yearâs before landing in London for the first half of January. âI spent so much time there over the past few years, and a lot over this year,â she says, then adds quickly â lest you jump to any geographical conclusions about her personal life â âIâll be just chilling. Iâll be writing. Iâll be writing a lot.âAnd as for that new music? Sheâs been plugging away with Dessner at Electric Lady Studios and thinks a record could very well be out by the end of 2025. âI am inspired by Taylor in a million ways, but especially by the pace with which she puts things out into the world,â Abrams says. âThereâs less pressure the more you release â thatâs how I consider it for myself. I want to just keep it coming while Iâm in this period of writing as frequently as I am. I think it would be a waste to not be open.âTop Image Credits: LĂCHEN dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsPhotographs by Keith OshiroStyling by EJ BrionesSet Designer: Alice JacobsHair: Bobby EliotMakeup: LoftjetManicure: Caroline CottenTalent Bookings: Special ProjectsVideo: Tiki, Kristina GrosspietschSenior Photo Producer: Kiara BrownEditor in Chief: Lauren McCarthySVP Fashion: Tiffany ReidSVP Creative: Karen Hibbert Source link

Iâm lucky that I donât get my own sh*t on it. The videos that I interact with are about people that live in the middle of nowhere by themselves, or I get a lot of pregnancy announcements from strangers to their friends and family.

Gracie Abrams is in the middle of telling me about the new music sheâs writing when a thought stumps her. She pulls out her phone to Google the answer: When did her chart-topping second album, The Secret of Us, actually drop this year?âWe started making new stuff the same week that we finished [that album]. Or actually, no, even earlier. When did the album come out?â she says, before trying to guess the release date: Top of the year? April? âWhat month are we in? December. When the f*ck did that album come out?â The page finally loads. âJune 21st! Holy sh*t! I am losing my mind, if you cannot tell. Time isnât as real as it once was.âThat about sums up the story of Abramsâ life lately. In just a few months, sheâs graduated from certified next-big-thing to actual big thing, thanks to her skillful songcraft and some excellent timing. After releasing two albums â 2023âs Good Riddance and then Secret, which got a deluxe edition in October â the 25-year-old scored a true star-making hit with âThatâs So True,â a begrudging farewell to an ex thatâs been inescapable whether youâre swiping through TikTok or flipping through the radio.It helped that, along the way, sheâs opened for two of the most powerful women in the world: Vice President Kamala Harris, who recruited Abrams to rev up Gen Z with a campaign rally performance in Wisconsin this October; and, most crucially, Taylor Swift, who tapped Abrams to open for 49 shows of the Eras Tour and made a rare guest appearance on The Secret of Us track âUsâ â the dean of confessional songwriting teaming up with her brightest pupil.Acne Studios dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsSheâs even managed the rare feat of transcending her nepo-baby status â her dad is sci-fi director J.J. Abrams, her mother is production executive Katie McGrath â and flipping it back onto her parents. At a recent show in New York, I watched fans approach her father to take selfies, not because he made Star Trek and Star Wars movies, but because heâs Gracieâs dad. (As one fan jokingly put it: âThere is literally no way you knew JJ Abrams before Gracie unless ur like 50 like be for real.â)âTheyâre like, âWhat in the world?ââ Abrams says of her parentsâ reaction to her fame. âBut itâs really sweet.â And she has a new appreciation for her mom â âThe toughest person I know, and not a softieâ â after watching her interact with Abramsâ growing army of young listeners. âThe way that she treats people is how I want to treat people, and for me to see her be that way towards this community that cares so much about the musicâŚâ she says, her voice trailing off. âHer support and encouragement of my writing my whole life is the reason that Iâm doing any of this now.ââEvery time Iâve opened for Taylor, I watch and learn. I learned from her every time we have a conversation about the weather, even.âAbrams is telling me all this over breakfast in New York City, where sheâs days away from making her musical debut on Saturday Night Live. She arrives punctually at Buvette in the West Village, dressed in a striped shirt and navy trousers, a black fur hat covering the hair that launched a thousand bobs. She arrives alone, coming from her momâs nearby apartment, where sheâll be staying for the next few weeks. She seems remarkably calm and collected given the circumstances. Less than 36 hours ago, Abrams was on stage in front of 60,000 people in Vancouver, wearing a $75 thrifted wedding dress, performing for the final night of the Eras Tour.âEveryone had been crying all day. It felt like the last day of school backstage,â she says, sipping an oat milk cappuccino. âEveryone was walking around with their [Eras Tour] books, signing each otherâs books. We were all walking around with Sharpies.âLike most Swifties, Abrams is moving through the stages of grief over the end of the tour. âI watched the live streams on shows that I wasnât at,â she says. âIâm feeling emotional and grateful and in a state of shock that we donât, as a global community, get to experience that source of light anymore.â And sheâs especially appreciative of how being in Swiftâs orbit offers a kind of pop-star boot camp as she enters a new stratosphere of success. âI was just soaking up every moment of her show, too. Iâve basically been studying it for a year-and-a-half. Every time Iâve opened for her, I watch and learn. I learned from her every time we have a conversation about the weather, even.ââIt feels way easier to be alone in New York. And I love being alone.âWhen Abrams first started on the Eras Tour, two Taylorâs Version albums were just Easter eggs, the Poets had yet to be Tortured and âTolerate Itâ was still on the set list; Abrams herself was fresh off the release of her debut album. By the time she rejoined the tour this past October, âThatâs So True,â had just come out, and she could feel the way her life was changing in the vibrations of the stadium.âItâs funny to see what one song can do for engagement. In your head, youâre like, âOf course.â But itâs crazy when you get to see that week-by-week in a stadium,â she says. âIt was really wild. It felt different, for sure. There is something really psychotic about being able to hear voices in the stadium singing sh*t back at you. Itâs like, âWhat the f*ck?ââOttolinger top, David Koma skirt, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsâThatâs So Trueâ becoming Abramsâ biggest hit to date is both a plot twist and a no-brainer. She started writing it last year but didnât feel strongly about finishing it in time to put on The Secret of Usâ standard edition. Yet the songâs brash, self-aware lyrics are peak Abrams, embodying everything fans love about her. Since her first EP in 2020, sheâs been packing emotional wallops into the tight confines of a three-minute pop song, with the easy intimacy of that friend who sends two-minute-long voice notes. Even as Abrams barrels from one feeling right into the next, her moments of mess have an enviable cleverness to them. Just listen to the second verse of âThatâs So True,â where she manages to be both cheeky and snarling as she sifts through resentment for an ex whoâs moved on (and herself for not doing the same): âWhatâd she do to get you off?/ Taking off your shirt, I did that once/ Or twice/ No, I know, I know Iâll f*ck off/ But I think I like her, sheâs so fun/ Wait, I think I hate her, Iâm not that evolved.âAudrey Hobert, Abramsâ best friend and frequent writing partner, has an idea of why Abramsâ songs are so sticky, even when theyâre full of unconventional choices. âShe taught me about something called mouthfeel, which is when you see if words feel good all strung together, and Iâve never forgotten it,â she says. âSheâs hilarious and smart and fast and fun, just like she is when weâre not writing.ââThatâs So Trueâ went viral before it even came out: A snippet of Abrams playing the song acoustically with Hobert made the rounds on TikTok so quickly that Abrams added it to the set list of her headlining tour this fall. By the time she played two nights at Radio City Music Hall in New York â still days away from release â 90% of the crowd knew all the words, and even reenacted the lasso dance move Hobert made in the original video. (Hobert, who is also her roommate, is working on music of her own: âShe is brilliant and deserves all of the ears and eyes,â Abrams teases. âThe music sheâs making right now is my favorite sh*t ever. Youâll love it.â)âI feel really lucky that 95% of my interactions with strangers are not with creepy dudes.ââItâs such an angsty, sarcastic song,â Abrams says of the hit, which she finished this spring at New Yorkâs Electric Lady Studios with producer Aaron Dessner. âAudrey and I were drunk on the roof, writing it in tears, laughing. The initial lyrics were way gnarlier.â (âYou donât wanna know the first-draft lyrics,â Hobert tells me.) But thereâs still plenty of bite in the bridge, a rushed, panicking confession that became a TikTok prompt for everyone from Kelsea Ballerini (âI was like, âOh my God, you know who I am?ââ) to @grandadfrankk (a charming Irish septuagenarian with 7.7 million followers). In November, it became her first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.Also fueling the songâs rise: a new interest in Abramsâ growing celebritĂŠ, particularly her relationship with actor Paul Mescal, with whom she has been snapped by paparazzi several times over the last six months. (Mescal was also in attendance at the same New York show, and the pair were seen arriving hand in hand at this weekendâs SNL after-party.) Abrams keeps it brief when I ask how sheâs found navigating personal relationships under this new public microscope. âThat has nothing to do with me,â she says, straight-faced. âIt doesnât affect me.âLĂCHEN dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsRecently, Abrams got her own place in New York and is making the East Coast her home base. âEverything is more generative for me in New York.

Theyâre waving at me, and I want to say whatâs up back,â she says plainly, as if to underscore that itâs not a bit â just a way of making even a big room feel a little bit smaller.Ottolinger top, David Koma skirt, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and rings, Tom Ford shoesLately, sheâs been thinking about the way her fan base has adjusted to an influx of new members. âIâve seen some sh*t online recently that has made meâŚâ she says, pausing to collect her thoughts. âI understand the whole concept of wanting to gatekeep small artists and feeling like you are responsible for finding somebody in their primary stages of development and then being responsible as well for helping share them with the world.âBut Iâve also seen, on the flip side, people be kind of judgmental or cruel towards new listeners,â she adds. âI think thatâs such a bummer and such a shame, to be honest, because itâs not remotely how I feel about it.

I feel like I somehow cheated the system into being there for his show.â (She made at least one new fan with her performances: Barbra Streisand, who praised her on Instagram.)After a few Jingle Ball dates, a time-honored tradition for ascendant pop stars, sheâs done for the year; sheâll do Christmas in New York with her family and take a trip for New Yearâs before landing in London for the first half of January. âI spent so much time there over the past few years, and a lot over this year,â she says, then adds quickly â lest you jump to any geographical conclusions about her personal life â âIâll be just chilling. Iâll be writing. Iâll be writing a lot.âAnd as for that new music? Sheâs been plugging away with Dessner at Electric Lady Studios and thinks a record could very well be out by the end of 2025. âI am inspired by Taylor in a million ways, but especially by the pace with which she puts things out into the world,â Abrams says. âThereâs less pressure the more you release â thatâs how I consider it for myself. I want to just keep it coming while Iâm in this period of writing as frequently as I am. I think it would be a waste to not be open.âTop Image Credits: LĂCHEN dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsPhotographs by Keith OshiroStyling by EJ BrionesSet Designer: Alice JacobsHair: Bobby EliotMakeup: LoftjetManicure: Caroline CottenTalent Bookings: Special ProjectsVideo: Tiki, Kristina GrosspietschSenior Photo Producer: Kiara BrownEditor in Chief: Lauren McCarthySVP Fashion: Tiffany ReidSVP Creative: Karen Hibbert Source link

Gracie Abrams is in the middle of telling me about the new music sheâs writing when a thought stumps her. She pulls out her phone to Google the answer: When did her chart-topping second album, The Secret of Us, actually drop this year?âWe started making new stuff the same week that we finished [that album]. Or actually, no, even earlier. When did the album come out?â she says, before trying to guess the release date: Top of the year? April? âWhat month are we in? December. When the f*ck did that album come out?â The page finally loads. âJune 21st! Holy sh*t! I am losing my mind, if you cannot tell. Time isnât as real as it once was.âThat about sums up the story of Abramsâ life lately. In just a few months, sheâs graduated from certified next-big-thing to actual big thing, thanks to her skillful songcraft and some excellent timing. After releasing two albums â 2023âs Good Riddance and then Secret, which got a deluxe edition in October â the 25-year-old scored a true star-making hit with âThatâs So True,â a begrudging farewell to an ex thatâs been inescapable whether youâre swiping through TikTok or flipping through the radio.It helped that, along the way, sheâs opened for two of the most powerful women in the world: Vice President Kamala Harris, who recruited Abrams to rev up Gen Z with a campaign rally performance in Wisconsin this October; and, most crucially, Taylor Swift, who tapped Abrams to open for 49 shows of the Eras Tour and made a rare guest appearance on The Secret of Us track âUsâ â the dean of confessional songwriting teaming up with her brightest pupil.Acne Studios dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsSheâs even managed the rare feat of transcending her nepo-baby status â her dad is sci-fi director J.J. Abrams, her mother is production executive Katie McGrath â and flipping it back onto her parents. At a recent show in New York, I watched fans approach her father to take selfies, not because he made Star Trek and Star Wars movies, but because heâs Gracieâs dad. (As one fan jokingly put it: âThere is literally no way you knew JJ Abrams before Gracie unless ur like 50 like be for real.â)âTheyâre like, âWhat in the world?ââ Abrams says of her parentsâ reaction to her fame. âBut itâs really sweet.â And she has a new appreciation for her mom â âThe toughest person I know, and not a softieâ â after watching her interact with Abramsâ growing army of young listeners. âThe way that she treats people is how I want to treat people, and for me to see her be that way towards this community that cares so much about the musicâŚâ she says, her voice trailing off. âHer support and encouragement of my writing my whole life is the reason that Iâm doing any of this now.ââEvery time Iâve opened for Taylor, I watch and learn. I learned from her every time we have a conversation about the weather, even.âAbrams is telling me all this over breakfast in New York City, where sheâs days away from making her musical debut on Saturday Night Live. She arrives punctually at Buvette in the West Village, dressed in a striped shirt and navy trousers, a black fur hat covering the hair that launched a thousand bobs. She arrives alone, coming from her momâs nearby apartment, where sheâll be staying for the next few weeks. She seems remarkably calm and collected given the circumstances. Less than 36 hours ago, Abrams was on stage in front of 60,000 people in Vancouver, wearing a $75 thrifted wedding dress, performing for the final night of the Eras Tour.âEveryone had been crying all day. It felt like the last day of school backstage,â she says, sipping an oat milk cappuccino. âEveryone was walking around with their [Eras Tour] books, signing each otherâs books. We were all walking around with Sharpies.âLike most Swifties, Abrams is moving through the stages of grief over the end of the tour. âI watched the live streams on shows that I wasnât at,â she says. âIâm feeling emotional and grateful and in a state of shock that we donât, as a global community, get to experience that source of light anymore.â And sheâs especially appreciative of how being in Swiftâs orbit offers a kind of pop-star boot camp as she enters a new stratosphere of success. âI was just soaking up every moment of her show, too. Iâve basically been studying it for a year-and-a-half. Every time Iâve opened for her, I watch and learn. I learned from her every time we have a conversation about the weather, even.ââIt feels way easier to be alone in New York. And I love being alone.âWhen Abrams first started on the Eras Tour, two Taylorâs Version albums were just Easter eggs, the Poets had yet to be Tortured and âTolerate Itâ was still on the set list; Abrams herself was fresh off the release of her debut album. By the time she rejoined the tour this past October, âThatâs So True,â had just come out, and she could feel the way her life was changing in the vibrations of the stadium.âItâs funny to see what one song can do for engagement. In your head, youâre like, âOf course.â But itâs crazy when you get to see that week-by-week in a stadium,â she says. âIt was really wild. It felt different, for sure. There is something really psychotic about being able to hear voices in the stadium singing sh*t back at you. Itâs like, âWhat the f*ck?ââOttolinger top, David Koma skirt, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsâThatâs So Trueâ becoming Abramsâ biggest hit to date is both a plot twist and a no-brainer. She started writing it last year but didnât feel strongly about finishing it in time to put on The Secret of Usâ standard edition. Yet the songâs brash, self-aware lyrics are peak Abrams, embodying everything fans love about her. Since her first EP in 2020, sheâs been packing emotional wallops into the tight confines of a three-minute pop song, with the easy intimacy of that friend who sends two-minute-long voice notes. Even as Abrams barrels from one feeling right into the next, her moments of mess have an enviable cleverness to them. Just listen to the second verse of âThatâs So True,â where she manages to be both cheeky and snarling as she sifts through resentment for an ex whoâs moved on (and herself for not doing the same): âWhatâd she do to get you off?/ Taking off your shirt, I did that once/ Or twice/ No, I know, I know Iâll f*ck off/ But I think I like her, sheâs so fun/ Wait, I think I hate her, Iâm not that evolved.âAudrey Hobert, Abramsâ best friend and frequent writing partner, has an idea of why Abramsâ songs are so sticky, even when theyâre full of unconventional choices. âShe taught me about something called mouthfeel, which is when you see if words feel good all strung together, and Iâve never forgotten it,â she says. âSheâs hilarious and smart and fast and fun, just like she is when weâre not writing.ââThatâs So Trueâ went viral before it even came out: A snippet of Abrams playing the song acoustically with Hobert made the rounds on TikTok so quickly that Abrams added it to the set list of her headlining tour this fall. By the time she played two nights at Radio City Music Hall in New York â still days away from release â 90% of the crowd knew all the words, and even reenacted the lasso dance move Hobert made in the original video. (Hobert, who is also her roommate, is working on music of her own: âShe is brilliant and deserves all of the ears and eyes,â Abrams teases. âThe music sheâs making right now is my favorite sh*t ever. Youâll love it.â)âI feel really lucky that 95% of my interactions with strangers are not with creepy dudes.ââItâs such an angsty, sarcastic song,â Abrams says of the hit, which she finished this spring at New Yorkâs Electric Lady Studios with producer Aaron Dessner. âAudrey and I were drunk on the roof, writing it in tears, laughing. The initial lyrics were way gnarlier.â (âYou donât wanna know the first-draft lyrics,â Hobert tells me.) But thereâs still plenty of bite in the bridge, a rushed, panicking confession that became a TikTok prompt for everyone from Kelsea Ballerini (âI was like, âOh my God, you know who I am?ââ) to @grandadfrankk (a charming Irish septuagenarian with 7.7 million followers). In November, it became her first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.Also fueling the songâs rise: a new interest in Abramsâ growing celebritĂŠ, particularly her relationship with actor Paul Mescal, with whom she has been snapped by paparazzi several times over the last six months. (Mescal was also in attendance at the same New York show, and the pair were seen arriving hand in hand at this weekendâs SNL after-party.) Abrams keeps it brief when I ask how sheâs found navigating personal relationships under this new public microscope. âThat has nothing to do with me,â she says, straight-faced. âIt doesnât affect me.âLĂCHEN dress, CHANEL Fine Jewelry earrings and ringsRecently, Abrams got her own place in New York and is making the East Coast her home base. âEverything is more generative for me in New York. It feels way easier to be alone here. And I love being alone,â she says. Anonymity in the city is also a little easier to come by. âIâve definitely noticed a change [in people noticing me], and at the same time, my life day-to-day doesnât look different. I feel really lucky that 95% of my interactions with strangers are not with creepy dudes, for example, but young women or girls who are super emotional like I am and are able to express that. I appreciate that so much, and so I think that that is incredibly lucky.ââIâve seen people be cruel towards new listeners, which is a bummer and such a shame because itâs not remotely how I feel.âShe references a Maggie Rogers interview clip thatâs made the rounds online, in which the singer-songwriter talks about how easily everyone can become a public figure in the age of TikTok. âAnd of course there are different levels and this spectrum is wide,â Abrams says, âbut I do agree with what she said about the month you release an album, you get a lot more interaction with strangers in the street, but then six months later, things are quieter. Peopleâs attention spans are short, and thatâs all real and true.âThe videos about Abrams that I encounter on my own feeds are relatively wholesome: Fans are dissecting her lyrics, not her love life (and, sure, a few are begging for her ab routine). âIâm glad that thatâs what it feels like,â Abrams says. âI donât really feel very engaged with my algorithm. Iâm lucky that I donât get my own sh*t on it. The videos that I interact with are about people that live in the middle of nowhere by themselves, or I get a lot of pregnancy announcements from strangers to their friends and family. I get a lot of wild animals and sh*t. So I donât feel like Iâm seeing a lot of myself, which I like.âNext year, weâll all be seeing a lot of Abrams. The day before we meet, Abrams announced a new tour that features some of her biggest headlining shows to date, including multiple nights at arenas like New York Cityâs iconic Madison Square Garden. âWhen I think about playing bigger rooms, I think of the Eras Tour as this endless well of information for me,â she says. âI felt like I was at school for this job. I used to be freaked out about the concept of not playing in a 100-cap room. Itâs been a minute since I felt freaked out. If anything, you get to say hi to more people in bigger rooms.âFans have taken note of her habit of frequently waving to members of the crowd throughout her shows, as if she invited them personally. (âGracie waved at meâ videos are a TikTok genre unto themselves.) Why does she do it? âIâm in a room with other people.

Meeting their long distance girlfriend for the first time (Edited)
Chan (Met due to Hannah)
Your flight had just landed and you quickly took out your phone to text your boyfriend.
'We landed.'
'Oh my gosh you're in Korea, you're so close oh my gosh!!'
You laughed at his enthusiasm before getting your bag from above you, and slowly getting off the plane. You made your way out of the doors to baggage claim and saw him there, eagerly waiting for you. You started making your way towards him but before you could take a full 3 steps he raced towards you, crushing you in a bear hug.
"Hi." He said nuzzling into your neck.
"Hi.." You sighed a little bit, running your fingers through his hair as your hugged him back tightly.
You two broke away from the hug for a second, but when you made eye contact he hugged you again..
"Hm?" You hummed, confused.
"Just wanna hold you for a while."
"Hold me later, I don't want us to start cuddling in an airport." He laughed as you two went to collect your bags.
Minho
You didn't tell him you were in Korea, you had to constantly act like it was still your time zone, even if it was light outside. You had made arrangements with Han, wanting to surprise your boyfriend, they had around a month of rest and relaxation. He had talked to you about it but you'd convinced him that you had too many things going on at school, however, you were on your break, but he didn't know that. Changbin and Han had picked you up from the airport last night, trying to be as sneaky as possible, although it was hard when neither of them can keep their mouths shut.
It was finally time for you to see him, you had gotten food for the boys and Han convinced them that he'd ordered it. You heard Minho complain that he had to get the door but when he opened the door his jaw dropped.
"Hi- AHHH!!" You burst out in surprised laughter at his high pitched scream, honestly never heard anything like it. He grabbed the food and put it in the house before gathering you in his arms, making sure you were real.
"You're here?!" "Mhm!" "In Korea!" "Yes." "Holy sh-"
You cut him off with another hug, and he peppered kisses along the top of your head. The rest of the night was filled with you getting to know the boys, and Minho not letting you out of his sight.
Changbin
'Can I kiss you?' That was the last text you'd received from him, before your stupid phone decided to die. You audibly groaned when your plane took off, hoping and praying he wouldn't get upset or sad.
As soon as your plane landed you checked again but to no avail. You got your bags and went outside, seeing a black van that looked familiar, you tried to check it without getting too close, but it was a bit awkward.
"Y/n?" You heard your boyfriend from behind you.
"Binnie oh my gosh, I'm so sorry! My stupid phone died before I could say yes and it wouldn't-" He cut you off by bringing you closer to him, holding your hips right against his.
"So it's a yes?"
"Of course." That's all he needed to press his lips against yours, holding your face so gently it felt like feathers on it.
You two probably scarred his driver with how much you two kissed in the car, especially with him exaggerating after every one.
Hyunjin
His parents actually flew you out. They noticed how much he loved you and wanted to surprise him, so after getting you from the airport they went to go meet him. They had Kkami as well and decided you'd come out holding him.
You quickly arrived at the place and started freaking out, the language barrier was difficult between his parents and you but you managed to make it work, calming down quickly. They got out of the car and hugged Hyunjin, you saw the sweet smile on his face and smiled at his happiness, before grabbing Kkami and giving him a pep talk.
"We're friends ok? Make me look good infront of your dad please?" You could see Hyunjin looking in the car, probably wondering why they didn't already take Kkami out, before slowly exiting from the opposite side. Making your way around the car and finally infront of your boyfriend, who's jaw was all but dropped. His dad grabbed Kkami from you before Hyunjin claimed you in the tightest hug you'd ever experienced.
"You're here.." He whispered so quietly you could barely hear it.
"Mhm, you- Aw you're crying, don't cry!" You quickly wiped his teary eyes, his parents leaving you two alone for a bit.
"I'm not letting you go for this entire trip ok? You're staying by me the whole time." He kissed your cheeks and held you for a couple more minutes before you went back to his parents and got formally introduced.
Han
You two were supposed to meet at a cafe, but the man behind you was playing some sort of game and would not shut up. You texted Han about it and he said to tell him to be quiet, you weren't going to but then all of a sudden the man let out a yell and it hurt your ears.
"Sir could you-.... I don't know if we can continue this relationship hannie." The man, who as it turned out to be, was your boyfriend, was all but mortified.
"Was I really loud?" You nodded as he apologized and you two hugged, you expected to sit next to him but he pulled you in to his lap.
"We're in public.."
"Yeah, but this is the first time I'm seeing you in person, I'm not letting that go to waste." You laughed a bit before looking at the game he was playing.
"Oh my brother likes that game!" He smiled at your before kissing your neck softly, putting the phone down and turning around a bit so you faced the river. He held you in place on his lap, peppering you in kisses on your cheeks or neck every couple minutes. Relishing in your presence and the feeling of peace you gave him.
Felix
You two were meeting at a mall, which wasn't very ideal for your first time in Korea.
*Call*
"Felix I have no idea where anything is."
"Oh shi- I forgot about that part. Do you know where you are?"
"The entrance I think, maybe the exit."
"Be right there."
He hung up and a few minutes later you noticed a guy with hair flopping all over the place headed full speed toward you. You knew it was your boyfriend so you opened up your arms just in time for him to run into them.
"Aish, sorry, I completely forgot baby." You smiled and waved it off.
"It's fine, I'm just glad you're here." You both smiled at each other before he leaned into you.
"Can we kiss, or is it too soon." He asked. You smiled a bit as your cheeks flushed pink.
"Sure.." He leaned in further and brought both of your lips together in a sweet kiss.
"That was my first kiss." He whispered as you pulled away.
"Mine too don't worry." You two hugged again before he pulled you into the mall.
"There's this store you'll absolutely love here.."
Seungmin
The members all convinced him that they were doing a live, however it was just a video for them, to make fun of his reaction.
So when you walked into the room and his eyes immediately started watering they got a bit scared. He bolted up from his seat and went to you, holding you in his arms, while you stroked his hair.
"Baby..."
"I'm here Minnie." He smiled and pulled away from your neck, just enough so you were face to face.
"I love you."
"I love you too honey." You replied, making the boys all 'Awe' except for Minho, who was trying but failing to not smile. Your boyfriend pulled you into his lap as the boys left, leaving you two to talk about what had been going on lately with their break.
Jeongin
You were unloading groceries you'd gotten from the store, and putting it into the hotel fridge when you heard a knock at your door. Peeping through the peephole, and checking your makeup in the mirror, you opened it, too see all 8 members of SKZ but in the middle was your boyfriend, who ran into your arms as soon as the door was open.
You noticed his shoulders heaving up and down and slowly rubbed his back before pulling away, wiping the tears building up as he smiled.
"Hi.."
"Hi.."
"They're awkward."
"Hyung!" You laughed at the banter between the two friends before you invited them all in.
"No it's alright, just wanted to make sure he arrived safely, have fun."
"Not too much thou- ow!"
"Shut up Han." Your boyfriend quickly shut the door after you said goodbye and kissed you, taking you by surprise.
"Sorry, I wanted to do that since you opened the door!" You laughed and hugged him again, both of you flopping onto the bed for a cuddle session, while watching an old Korean children's animated show.

CHOJI, SHIKAMARU, LEE, GAARA & HINATA!! ITS A LOT IM SORRY
THANK U FOR THIS...admittedly some answers may be a lil short just so i can like. Get to them all.
EDIT: IDK WHY IT LOOKS LIKE THIS. IM SO TIRED. IM SORRY ITS JUST A LONGASS NARUTO POST ON YOUR DASH I TRIED MY FUCKIN BEST YALL
SEND ME A CHARACTER AND IâLL DO THIS;
Chouji (man iâve seen it spelled both ways and iâm just used to typing Chouji at this point sorry)
Sexuality Headcanon: Pansexual!! Gender Headcanon: Cis male A ship I have with said character: SHIKAMARU. SHIKAMARU. SHIKAMARU. SHIKAMARUUUU, my god...just, everything about their dynamic makes my heart melt, the way theyâre both people who are easily dismissed by others and how they have such UNFALTERING FAITH in each other. chouji knows how much of a genius shikamaru is, knows very well the fact that despite his laziness, once he commits to something heâs in it for the LONG HAUL, the way shikamaru just believes so steadfastly in chouji, considering him stronger than NEJI FOR FUCKS SAKE...they like. get one another, the kind of relationship where you can be yakking away one minute and then just sitting in contented silence the next. they can just laze around. maybe play video games and snack. and sometimes...kiss. and itâs so chill even with that latent tenderness their later relationship develops and they both just feel so safe and KNOWN and familiar like. love your best friend. anyway everyone slept on shikacho and yâall should be ashamed the naruto fandom is enormous and finding pretty much ANY content for it is almost impossible aside from the small (if lovely and amazing) tag and iâm pretty hyperfixated on it if you couldnât tell holy SHIT. A BROTP I have with said character: iâm really not a fan of ino taking potshots at him for his weight and outright shaming him, but once she grows out of that i absolutely love their friendship. listen, you know that post thats like--hold on
thats just them, thanks. A NOTP I have with said character: i have nothing against karui but canon is fucking dead to me and my opinions on p much all the âendgameâ ships range from utterly neutral to absolute loathing. their relationship is on neither end of the spectrum, but. eh. definitely not into it. A random headcanon: he keeps nursing injured animals back to health because heâs just that fucking sweet and bringing them back to his house to keep them warm and safe while they recover and his team knows vaguely about this and ino and shikamaru like to poke fun at him for it but since they donât tend to encounter said animals, itâs not really a huge deal.
of course they stop by his house one day bc he hadnât shown up for training which is annoying and frankly a little concerning and finding the house mostly empty ino just bursts on into choujiâs room only to immediately have the opossum heâs been caring for latch its little paws on her face and cling.
itâs a bad morning. General Opinion over said character: literally one of my absolute favorites of all time and it really breaks my heart how overlooked he is in the fandom (seriously yâall...). i think kishimoto is kind of a stupid hack and the Fat Jokes are really grating and it sucks to see that so intrinsically tied to his character (like. just let him be fat. jesus christ) but his kindness and overall relaxed, loyal and lovable nature has me just melting. i adore him.Â
Shikamaru
Sexuality Headcanon: Heâs gay, scoob. (I could also talk a lot about how his earlier misogyny is both a product of being a whiny tween and also some internalized frustration of like WHATS SO GREAT ABOUT GIRLS. UGH. I DONT. STOP TELLING ME IM GONNA FALL IN LOVE WITH ONE ONE DAY DAD JESUS. and letâs be real, thats frustrating, even if it aint an excuse) Gender Headcanon: he uses he/him pronouns because itâs just what heâs used to and comfortable with but man gender is such a drag... A ship I have with said character: SEE ABOVE SHIKACHO RANT A BROTP I have with said character: naruto! he and naruto have a really adorable friendship and i love love LOVE that he and chouji were shown to be kind and accepting of him even when most people were shunning him. also heâs so fucking dumb i love seeing shikamaru meticulously plan out something only to have naruto shriek into battle and ruin all of it. love those guys. stupid bros. A NOTP I have with said character: ok. im sorry i just. loathe sh*katema i really do. i haaaate the way kishimoto writes this whole âew a GIRLâ âew a MANâ vibe with the like OOOH BUT THEYRE GONNA LIKE EACH OTHER vibe like.Â
donât get me wrong i adore them as friends, i think theyâre fantastic scathing and witty pals who bitch about anything and everything including each other
but theyâre also both gay and kishimoto can suck my nuts byeeee A random headcanon: sometimes pakkun just fucking Shows up and chills with him. shikamaru wants absolutely no part of this but is way too lazy to like. do anything about it so itâs just this guy and a dog sitting in a field chillin and occasionally him piping up like âhey kid. remember when i bit your hand? yeah? haha, man time sure does fly.â while shikamaru is just. go aWAY.  General Opinion over said character: if you told 9 year old me watching naruto for the first time my favs were gonna be a three way tie of lee, shikamaru and chouji i never would have fucking believed you but here we are. i love him. i absolutely love him. heâs such a whiny bastard and a really good depiction of burnout genius who doesnt want to do ANYTHING, but his intellect is an absolute DELIGHT to watch. i love him very much.Â
Lee
Sexuality Headcanon: heâs pan!! this is a boy that crushes easily and crushes hard on just about anyone!!!! Gender Headcanon: cis male A ship I have with said character: ok i ship him a lot with neji actually? what with how neji grows during the course of the series to regard lee with the respect he deserves is really sweet and thereâs just something so infinitely adorable about him going around being the hammiest, most ridiculously earnest, kind and enthusiastic person and neji, now that he isnât constantly bitter and angry at the world can finally really see that? lee is always happily dropkicking his way into his life, like he wouldnât have it any other way, and i think thatâs just...so sweet A BROTP I have with said character: SAKURAAAAA. oh my GOD do i adore their relationship. ever since lee saved her and basically just gave her a glimpse of his...lee-ness, the fact her negative opinion of him IMMEDIATELY flipped and gave her such a strong admiration and fondness for him kills me DEAD. she always treats him with so much respect and the fact sheâs quick to rag on anyone making fun of him melts my HEART!! and on leeâs side, his little crush on her is adorable of course, but the sheer strength of the friendship that comes from it is more than infatuation could ever offer him. i want them to hang out together and talk about their troubles...i want them to make each other laugh and be so very kind to each other...i want sakura to storm over and throw him over her shoulder to TAKE A BREAK ALREADY when heâs been training too hard for too long. god. A NOTP I have with said character: honestly iâm pretty happy with a lot of lee ships! the only ones i view with obvious disdain are the ones with creepy age gaps honestly. A random headcanon: out of everyone in the leaf genin, heâs probably the closest anyoneâs ever come to someone who EVERYONE is at least distantly friendly towards. like god have you SEEN how warm and inviting and concerned he is the SECOND he sees that naruto is feeling down? i get the sense heâs immediately inclined to provide that kind of support to any of his comrades, even the ones that Resist it.
you think sasuke is the most popular among the leaf genin? puh-LEASE. everyone looks on rock lee with at least a LITTLE bit of warmth. thats just fact. General Opinion over said character: since my first viewing of naruto he has been my Absolute fav, and while chouji and shikamaru are veeery close to stealing that spot, one look at him and i feel heâs gonna be on top forever. probably the best written character kishimotoâs ever produced thatâs remained in  the main cast (tho i dont speak for shipudden onwards who fucking knows, but the truth of it is is i adore rock lee)
Gaara
Sexuality Headcanon: Panromantic Asexual Gender Headcanon: kind of like shikamaru, i feel like he uses he/him pronouns but also doesnât particularly....Care? A ship I have with said character: ok so it wasnt until my naruto rewatch that i really started falling into this but i think him and naruto are super cute? while i loathe kishimoto for ruining so much abt this show he really is good at creating good foils to naruto, and gaara is no exception--and the way naruto changes his life by just kicking his ass (and proving heâs not just a Simp or smth) and then just, extending genuine empathy and a REAL sense of truly relating to where heâs coming from re:his upbringing? the EFFECT it has on him, bro!!!! my god!!! i feel like theyâre that opposites attract ship that donât clash constantly but instead fall into this adorable synergy and understanding? and i think thats so sweet A BROTP I have with said character: ...is it cheating to just put temari and kankuro here? bc they are literally his siblings but my GOD do i love their relationship. thereâs something so deeply sad about their initial situation??? like having siblings that either are deeply fucking afraid of you or clearly donât care for your well being whatsoever, itâs such a tragic scenario, and the times where they really do show legitimate care for gaara just breaks my heart...but the GROWTH. THE DEVELOPMENT. THE HEALING. i love the sand siblings so much, i am a STRONG advocate of seeing the development from estranged family to loving, occasionally bickering siblings who absolutely Love Each Other A NOTP I have with said character: uhhhh same with lee in that i donât really mind most of the ships iâve seen him in? while i donât particularly ship gaalee i think its also Very Cute, and really it all just seems pretty valid as long as people arenât being creepy? A random headcanon: iâve been wracking my brain for one for a good 20 minutes and i just donât have one heâs such a mystery to me/????? i love him but he is an enigma?? General Opinion over said character: oh my god heâs such an edgelord in the beginning. iâve been doing a lot of this naruto rewatch with my friend @drashseed (a simply phenomenal fella 10/10 follow him) and every single time he talked the only valid response just became âok gaaraâ
but his backstory? utterly HEARTWRENCHING. and his growth is just. absolutely divine, i adore him. thank you mister sandman for doing so much for us all.
Hinata
Sexuality Headcanon: Bisexual Gender Headcanon:Â cis woman A ship I have with said character: listen. i think kibahina is........Really Really cute. he cares about her so MUCH??? and thereâs a certain tenderness to his interactions with her thatâs just really evident whenever you see em together? i really love that you get the sense hinata is COMFORTABLE around him!!! like! i feel like hinata really deserves to have a partner who sees her when she ISNâT blushing and stammering? when sheâs like? legitimately comfortable and being HERSELF? (dgmw the blushing is adorable i fucking love her but its one of the gripes i have with naruhina that so much of it is just naruto being oblivious and her having a small panic attack) the comfort she and kiba have make for a chill, adorable relationship i just cry over constantly A BROTP I have with said character: so i was GONNA put naruto here, but technically i already put him there for shikamaruâs so iâm gonna say neji!!! uhhh OBVIOUSLY they got off to a. very rough start but the way their dynamic changed (or perhaps in a way reverted back to the times they interacted before nejiâs father died and temporarily killed his Human Decency) into this respect and fondness thatâs just...such a delight to watch? iâm a SUCKER for slow and mutual reconciliation and there are just so many sweet moments between them. they are FAMILY, BRO!!! THEY CARE FOR EACH OTHER, BRO!!!!!!!!!! A NOTP I have with said character: ...at the risk of sounding like a broken record, i think a lot of hinata ships are quite cute? i guess iâm gonna have to say sasuke. because like.
has. he ever even looked at her. please. jesus christ. she deserves so much better. A random headcanon: she is a LOT physically stronger than she looks!! a lot of her combat techniques rely on taijustu after all so itâd make sense that she puts a lot of effort into physical training alongside chakra control.
iâm trying to say sheâs strong. not as strong as sakura but. she can lift her bf up over her head (heâs dying hes dying heâs dYING he lOVES HER SO MUCH). itâs pretty fuckign badass
General Opinion over said character: i LOVE her??? honest to god i really really do--honestly while i dislike the direction they went in canon with her, i really loved seeing her be motivated to grow and change the parts of herself she hated to become a stronger person.
that and sheâs so fucking cute and sweet and i just??????? bless her honestly.

About Me
Thought Iâd do a little âAbout Meâ post that Iâm gonna update whenever I feel like things have changed in my life a bit - last update was 28/09/21
Plus my blog is very un-personal so I thought this way my followers could get to know me a bit better
(feel free to use these questions if you want - but tag me pls mostly because Iâm nosy!)
Name/Gender/Pronouns: đ
You can call me Rin and I go by she/her pronouns (also they/them I donât mind)
S I M S Â S T U F F
How long have you been playing the sims?: đ
I think I started in about 2013-14 and Iâve been addicted ever since holy sh- that was 7/8 years ago I have a problem with this damn game!
When and why did you join simblr?: đ
This blog officially started in March 2020
I started posting because I already had the first generation of the Breathe Legacy written up on my desktop and it seemed a bit of a waste of time if I wasn't sharing it with anyone - so I shared it! :)
You may notice if you go into my archive that I have a post all the way back from 2017 - Iâve had a couple of tries at creating a simblr but this is the only one thatâs stuck so far (also that post was a really pretty screenshot, so I kept it and deleted all the rest)
If you were a sim what would your traits be?: đ
Iâm gonna use the TS3 traits system so probably:
đ Bookworm
đť Computer whiz
đ°Â Natural Cook
đ¤Â Night Owl
đ¸Â Cat Person
Whoâs your favourite EA sim?: đ
Probably Agnes Crumplebottom, but I also love Cassandra Goth and Claire Ursine
R A N D O M Â A S K S
How old are you?: đ
Iâm 19 at the moment
Where are you from?: đ
Iâm from the middle of nowhere in the UK, which is why some of my spellings may be odd if youâre not British
What do you want to do with your life?: đ
Not sure what I want to do as a career, but Iâve always loved writing, telling stories etc (hence this blog) and Iâd love to do something in publishing or editing (or my dream job would be working on a tv show)
Whatâs your sexuality?
I like people all over the gender spectrum, ass is ass! :D (I donât really care for labels but I guess I fall in the bi/pan area if I had to put a name on it)
Faves (books, music, media etc): đ
Books: My favourite book ever is probably Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng (which I would very much recommend to anyone who has experienced a difficult family situation) also Normal People is really good, and I also love classics esp stuff from the Victorian era but I wonât go into them here because weâll be here forever
Music: At the moment my favourite bands/artists are Kate Bush, Mother Mother, Sir Chloe, The Marias and cheesy 80s music
TV: My favourite shows are RuPaulâs Drag Race, Normal People, Good Girls, Bojack Horseman, Peep Show and The IT Crowd - If you want some semi-underrated good recommendations Iâd suggest Inside No. 9, Lovesick (the british one), Living with Yourself and Maniac
Films: (this is a bit of a weird mix) La La Land, Legally Blonde, Misery, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Gone Girl, Submarine and idk what else - I watch more TV than films tbh so my favourites are pretty limited because I havenât really seen that many
Do you have any pets?: đž
Yep, I have cats and dogs and I love them all to bits
Favourite Weather + Season: âď¸
Autumn (basic ik, but lets be real, itâs the prettiest one.)
My favorite weather is heavy rain, I always crack open my window when it rains bc I love the smell and the sounds! Also storms - I know they scare some people but I love thunder, it makes me feel so peaceful and cosy
Some things you love/hate: đ
Love: Quiet snowy mornings, chai tea, ben and jerryâs ice cream, pretty people, cosy cottages in the countryside, how dogs react when they go to the beach
Hate: Bigots/racists/sexists/homophobes/transphobes/etc - basically anyone who doesnât accept people for who they are and/or doesnât respect peoples religions and cultures, if you are any of those, get off my blog, please and thank you.
Whatâs an unpopular opinion you have?: đ
I donât trust people if they donât like cats, especially people who actively hate them or say that theyâve ânever met a cat who likes themâ - thats a red flag for me! I canât explain why I have this opinion but I havenât been wrong about it yet lol, itâs just a pretty good indicator of someoneâs character in my experience đ¸
Favourite Celebrity/Popular Figure?: â¨
Yekaterina Petrovna Zamolodchikova (but your dad just calls her Katya)
Do you have any non-sims hobbies?: đš
I've played the piano as long as I can remember, I like to read, I occasionally draw/paint stuff, and I sew and modify a lot of my own clothes and make cushions and things - basically anything crafty is right up my streetÂ

SPN 15 Castiel's arc theory:
(14th Nov 2019)
We know the Empty said It will take Cas the moment he allows himself to finally be happy.
What would make Cas reeeeaaallyyy happy?Dean's Confession(TM)
Now, we are going into 1/4 of the season and still haven't seen Jack who, I remind you, we last saw in the Empty with Billie going "We have to talk" like
"Who in the holy racoon are you, why are there miles of sheets on my desk saying you shouldn't be here" or smt like that Idk
Empty being a biatch "Jacky boy your dad done messed up, Imma keep you here till I get his annoying *ss back the moment he says 'I'm gay!'" (Jack gets his soul back cuz we all know what happens when you let soulless idiots on Earth)
In the meantime, build up to EPISODE 9:
Cas wandering around being all "Who are we, where do we come from, why are we still here just to suffer... oh right cuz my dad's a d*ck"
Cue Dean snapping cuz reasons and CONFESSION TIME after 10 YEARS HE'S DONE BEING A FRUSTRATED REPRESSED DUDU
Edit: it could even be like "bla bla bla ... because, Cas..." and cut to Castiel PLEASE AT LEAST HINT IT
Cas being pissy at first but then listening to the prayer "Yes Dean talk to me even tho you're full of horsesh*t"" and insert overwhelmed Cas smiling, glossy eyes and all. He turns around and BOOM, he's in the Empty and facing Jack
E: Hiiiii Cassy C: JACK J: CAS and Jack respawns in the bunker
Cue Cas' break down moment
END EP 9
Back in the bunker Dean is hella sad cuz "bf isn't answering, he doesn't love me, Chuck was right" he has hit rock himself (I'm hilarious), Sam is hella confused cuz dead son is back like
J: Guys some sh*t is going on, Cas is in the Empty!
S/D: da fuq y
J: previously on SPN
Dean "oh sh*t what have I done, wait this means...!" and he rises with flaming fury and 40 years of repression "Let's get dat *ss back here"
Second Arc begins: Let's save Cas
Sh*t goes down, Dean doesn't say anything about that, Jack tells them about Billie and Dean goes and kills himself again to talk to her, Billie "fuuuu- whyyyy I told yo-" "Get Cas out of the Empty's *ss or I'll kill you like I killed Best Death!"
Bla bla bla they fix it like Jack sacrifices himself or Cas annoys Empty even more or it goes like I predicted with Chuck and Amara dying so the Empty dies as well, Idk
Anyway Cas respawns, we have the Destiel hug and they look at each other and know that the other knows that he knows, Dean like "No Homo bro" Cas like "Don't you No Homo me I know what you said" "I know you know but let's pretend for a sec I'm not ready!"
Cue my theory about the ending with the Destiel alternative
(even tho the sad one is more plausible)
THE END
(LEL I WISH)

Roswell New Mexico ep 1.09 liveblog Songs About Texas
Listen I donât care that Iâve never done a liveblog about this show before. I love it. I watched the original. I like this one better. Do not watch if you donât want my buzzed cursing and spoilers and flailing. Because I curse and flail and spoil. it was an accidental liveblog because I was messaging a friend of mine who watches but was not caught up. So I didnât want to spoil her until she said it was fine and then it became no holds barred. Do I edit it or let you see my terrible typing while I watch a show and drink a beer in the afternoon?Â
Ahh. Get it unfiltered.
me--all right. i'm watching the roswell episode
buddy--We had a rather intense work meeting Howâs the Rowell episode Roswell*

[buckle up I just go IN]
me--they're going to see a faith healer they're wondering if she's an alien. max and michael went to see if she did that, but liz and maria went to see  if she could heal maria's mom who is crazy. the female sheriff went to ALEX instead of his father who is trying to get her to out max.  she found a handprint death and thiks there's a conspiracy and she doesn't trust alex's dad who is blackmailing her to surveil alex. wait why is MARIA going with Michael to heal his broken hand that was smashed by Alex's dad because he cauthg them together. oh wait. liz is talking to max PERSONAL SPACE MUCH? michael is funny. "That feeling babe is naivetee" wait why does michael care about maria? oh she's a fake healer. oh. they just did an indigenous appropriation comment. wait grandma is like, 'they were asking about the sigil?" i love his show confession. i'm on my second beer. michael stole from the scamming healer. liz doesn't care

buddy--No I canât imagine itâs that simpleÂ
me--i think there's another alien out there killing people and taking control of isobel which means she didn't kill rosa but whoever controlled her did I'm REALLY gonna need michael to stop flirting with maria because i used to ship maria and michael and he made me ship michael and alex. michael is both hot and funny at least we get some max and liz bonding. oh no there's a motel across the street!!!!!! girl sheriff just got told her ex bf max is an alien

neighbors
I had this pretty spontaneous inspiration for a fluff thing where ev meets the reader in an au where he and heidi move away after the events in the musical
 A/N: hhhh um yea b l e a s e no judgement on this, I started and finished it at 1:30 in the morning
word count: idk but itâs l o o o n g because I CANT SEEM TO WRITE ANYTHING SJORTER THAN 1000 WORDS I (edit: 3315 holy sh) includes: angst, swearing probably, slow burn, Evan is probably really ooc I donât even know pairing: Evan Hansen x reader
 ~~~~~~~~
 Moving to a new city was always stressful. Evan knew the feeling well. The lump in your throat as you said goodbye to your home, the clutter and discomfort in the new house, the unfamiliar streets; heâd seen it all before. He and Heidi had had to move several times when her job could not support them.
  Heâd hoped they would be able to stay in one place now, since his mom had a steady job at a doctorâs office. But now they were moving once again, and this time it was his fault. Heâd royally screwed things up with the only friends heâd ever known, and now Heidi thought it was best they both move on. Evan had left on good enough terms with Jared, but he wasnât naive enough to hope to carry on like nothing had ever happened.
 So here he was, in a brand new city, hundreds of miles away from the place heâd come to consider his home. This town was a place full of opportunity. There was a nice community college he was interested in, and heâd find a job soon enough. He knew that here he could make a new start.
 And he was absolutely miserable.
 Evan missed his friends, even though he realized things wouldnât have been the same after the Connor Project.
 He sighed, looking around at his new room. So far it was bare. The walls were a light yellow, which he liked. A little light peaked through the blinds in the fading evening sun. He hefted the box he was holding, set it down in the corner, and went downstairs to get another.
 ~~~~~~~~
 You heard the sounds of shuffling boxes outside and ran to your window to see. So the new neighbors were finally moving in. You watched the movers gradually unload the U-Haul truck for awhile, and finally they drove away. A woman in scrubs and a boy about your age were hauling boxes into their new home. You wondered vaguely what the boy was like, and if you would ever be friends.
 Whatever. It didnât matter. People were all the same, anyway. Just as you were turning away from the window, your mother called from downstairs, â[Y/N]?â
 âYes?â you yelled back. âWould you take these cookies next door and see if they need any help?â You rolled your eyes. âWhy donât you do it?â
 âSweetie, Iâm working right nâ oh, would you just come downstairs?â she called again. You sighed and clomped into the living room, where your mother was sitting on the couch, typing on her laptop. She looked over at you. âBabe, like I said, I have to work, or I would definitely go over there myself. But my boss is going to kill me if I miss my deadline again.â Your mom was an online columnist for the local paper.
 âWould it really be so hard?â she asked, trying to hold your gaze. âAll you have to do is bring the cookies over, ring the doorbell, and introduce yourself and offer to help them move in.â You twisted your silver bracelet, a parting gift from your dad. âMom, this might sound surprising to you, but thatâs more than some people can handle.â She leaned over to brush the hair out of your eyes. âSweetie, I know things have been rough lately. And Iâve tried to give you some time to recover. But at some point, youâll have to get back out into the world and try to live again. I know it feels like nothing will ever be the same without Dad. I feel that way, too. But we have to keep trying to live our lives, even when somebody we love leaves us.â
 Your eyes watered, and you quickly turned away to make it stop. You didnât like thinking about Dad. Dad, with his prickly brown beard and his eyes full of laughter. Dad, with his big deep voice and his compassion. Dad, with his strong arms holding you tight. Until he was too weak to lift them, smiling tiredly at you from the hospital bed. And his eyes, once so alive and full of wit, now slowly closing one last timeâŚ
 You scrubbed at your eyes and wiped your nose hurriedly. Mom couldnât see you crying. Sheâd worry even more if she knew how strongly your Dadâs death had affected you. It had been long enough, but it seemed like nothing without him would ever be right. Your world had gone completely dark after losing him, and you couldnât imagine recovering from such a heavy blow.
 You snuffled and turned back around, sure your eyes were red. If she wanted you to socialize, then so be it. âWhere are the cookies?â
 ~~~~~~~~
 Evan was setting down a box marked âKitchen suppliesâ when the doorbell rang. He froze. âMom?â he called. âWhat?â came a muffled response from Heidi. He tiptoed into her room, where she was busy sorting clothing into piles. âThereâsâ thereâs someone at the door.â he whispered, feeling petrified. The doorbell rang again. Whoever was there was getting tired of waiting.
 Heidi looked at her son. âSweetie, youâre going to have to step out of your comfort zone a little bit and get to know some people. Meeting your neighbors is always a good start. Now, shoo!â And with that, she gave him a little shove toward the front door.
 Evan stumbled over and opened it. He stopped cold when he saw who was there. A girl, holding a plate of cookies. A very, very pretty girl. He felt his face grow hot as she snapped her gum and half-glared at him. âHi, Iâm Eban. I meap, mean, Evan. Evan.â He mumbled, flustered. Heâd fallen in love once and he knew what it felt like. Now it was happening again.
 She rolled her eyes a little and held out the plate of cookies. âThese are for you and your mom,â she said. âMy mom baked them and made me take them over here. She thinks I need to learn to âsocialize.ââ Evan shifted a little, taking the plate of cookies nervously. Who was this girl?
 âMy mom thinks that about me,â he said. âWhatâs your name?â
 â[Y/N]. [Y/L/N].â
 â[Y/N].â Evan repeated. âNice name.â âThanks, I made it myself,â she replied sarcastically. There was a small pause as he tried to figure out how to respond. âIâll see you around, Evan. Enjoy the cookies.â And with that, his neighbor stalked off across the lawn, narrowly missing Heidiâs unplanted peonies.
 What a character, Evan thought to himself. And he turned and went back inside. In spite of himself, he blushed. She really was pretty, even if she had a terrible attitude.
 The next morning, Saturday, Evan was shaken awake by his mother. He had a job interview, since Heidi needed him to help support the two of them, at least for a little while. âEvan,â Heidi said urgently. âYouâre late for your interview.â
 Evan shot out of bed. âShit, shit, shit,â he whispered, looking for some clean pants. His mother said, âIâll make you some coffee you can grab on your way out. Hurry!â and she rushed downstairs as Evan slipped on some jeans and mismatched socks.
 5 minutes later he was out the door, coffee in hand, hustling toward his car parked on the curb, when he slammed straight into someone. It was you. Youâd been taking out the garbage in your pajama shorts and tank top when Evan, in his hurry to leave, didnât see you and collided with you. â[Y/N],â he gasped. âIâm so sorry, I didnât mean to bump into you, I just, Iâm late for an interv- interview, and I jââ He stopped. You were already walking away.
 ~~~~~~~~
 Why had you walked away from Evan? It had been two days and you still werenât really sure. Maybe it was because you were in your pajamas and looked awful. Maybe it was because you hadnât been expecting to see him. Or maybe it was because you were entirely caught off-guard by his eyes. His enormous eyes⌠they were so blue and innocent. You could fall into those eyes if you didnât watch your step.
 His eyes had flooded into you, making you wonder again what type of person he was, and if he would ever reach out to be friends. You didnât like the intimate level of eye contact, since it made memories resurface. You didnât like to remember. You didnât like to feel. And somehow, in an instant, an accidental collision, heâd made you do just that.
 Somewhere inside you regretted being so rude to Evan, but you had to protect yourself. Any time you let others in or cared about someone, you got hurt. The person youâd loved most in the world was your dad, and look what had happened to him.
 Your dad would have loved Evan. He was extremely perceptive. Heâd probably have your neighbor all figured out by now. You knew Evan was quiet and shy, and your dad had been that way, too. They probably would have had so much to talk about, everything from politics to trees to peanut butter and everything in between.
 You shook yourself. Why are you thinking about Dad? you scolded yourself. It doesnât do you any good. So stop it.
 Evan was a safe subject to think about, more or less. You were curious about his mom and what his house looked like and if he had a cat and suddenly, you were seized with a desire to know everything about him. You couldnât trust him (or anyone), but there was no harm in learning about him. Right?
 You meandered over to your bedroom window. It was Monday morning, two days after the trash incident. How did Evan feel? He probably hated you. Peeking cautiously through your blinds, you saw him. He was watering a few small potted plants on his windowsill, and his mouth was moving. Was he singing? Struck with an overpowering curiosity, you moved to open your window just a crack to listen.
 He was singing. His voice was a little reedy and so soft you could barely hear, but full of sweetness. It was a folk song you vaguely recognized, but you couldnât put your finger on the title.
 âThrough the forest down to your grave, where the birds wait and the tall grasses wave. They do not know you anymoreâŚâ
 Evan paused, looking up, and saw that you had been watching him. âNice voice,â you called. âColor me impressed.â He turned beet-red and wiped his hands hurriedly on his jeans. âThank y- thank you, [Y/N],â he stammered. âHow long were you watching me?â
 âNot long,â you lied. There was an awkward pause as Evan shifted and set down his watering can. âSoâŚâ
 âSoâŚâ You swung your legs out and sat on the windowsill. âWhat song were you singing? It sounded really familiar.â Still flushed, Evan kneeled in front of his window to talk. âTiger Mountain Peasant Song.â
 Now you remembered. âOh, thatâs Fleet Foxes, right?â He nodded and bit his lip. âDo you like their music?â You admitted not listening to them in a few years. Evan looked up and smiled shyly. âYou should definitely try it out again. Their first album is their best one.â
 âAlright, I will,â you promised. âItâll change your life.â âOh, yeah?â âYeah.â
 Another pause.
 A bird chattered from a tree nearby.
 âAt least, I think so. I mean, um, I mean, if you donât like thââ âDo you want to just come over?â you interrupted. âTalking like this is weird.â
 Evan looked surprised but tried to cover it up. âUh, yeah, o-okay, sure, that sounds good. Totally.â âOkay.â You stood up. âCome over in five minutes.â And you shut your window.
 ~~~~~~~~
 Was this real? Was Evan really about to visit [Y/N] and⌠hang out? He really couldnât believe his luck. Already his hands were sweating like fuck, and he hadnât even left the house. He pawed through a box of his CDs, looking for âFleet Foxes.â There it was, among some Broadway soundtracks (âLegally Blondeâ and âLes MisĂŠrables,â to name a few) and a John Mayer album. He really needed to unpack soon.
 Evan headed downstairs, CD in hand, wondering if he should bring something over. Coffee? Everyone liked coffee. Right? âMom?â he called out.
 No answer. Of course. She was at work. It would be dumb to bother her with that kind of question, anyway. So he quickly fixed up two thermoses of hot English Breakfast coffee and headed out, locking the door behind him.
 Shaking, Evan shuffled up the sidewalk to [Y/N]âs house and rang the doorbell. After about a minute, she opened the door. Goodness, she was beautiful. âHi,â he said timidly. âHi.â
 She left the door open and turned back into her house and went to the kitchen. Evan followed. She was busy rummaging through the pantry for something, seemingly ignoring him. âI brought some coffee,â he offered. When this merited no response, he added, âEnglish BreakfastâŚâ
 âHow did you know?â she demanded. âKnow wh -at?â
 She softened a little at how scared he looked. âThatâs my favorite kind of coffee.â (Oh worm?)
 Evan glanced shyly at her. âLucky guess. Itâs my favorite, too, so I just thoughtâŚâ
 She nodded. âItâs the best, definitely. So do you want a donut?â she asked, pulling a bag out of the pantry. He blurted, âWhat kind?â âWhat?â âI just wanna see something. Wha- what kind of donuts do you have?â
 She smirked. âOnly the best.â At the same time they said, âCherry iced.â
 Evanâs mouth fell open. âNo way.â Raising an eyebrow, she deadpanned, âThe plot thickens.â He laughed at that.
 [Y/N] set the donuts on a plate and sat down at the kitchen table across from Evan. He handed her a thermos and they each silently took a donut and ate. Evan was nervous, but somehow the quiet with her wasnât as bad as it was with others. He got the impression that she was thinking. Her eyes were far away, her chin rested absently in the cup of her hand.
 Evan cautiously reached out and tapped her other hand. âWhat are you thinking about?â he asked. She looked up and her eyes focused again. âNothing.â
 Silence.
 She looked over at Evan. âSorry for what happened the other day. That was shitty.â He smiled feebly. âYeah. Thank you, though.â She spotted the Fleet Foxes CD. âShall we give it a listen?â
 Evan was really starting to like this girl.
 ~~~~~~~~
 You popped the CD out of its case and inserted it into the stereo in your living room. Soft, haunting strains of folk music floated from the speakers. You turned to Evan, whose eyes were sparkling. He really did love this album, and you could see why.
 As a song called âBlue Ridge Mountainsâ began to play, you sat with Evan on the couch. âSo.â you said to him. âMr. Just-Moved-In. Where do you come from?â
 He began to tell you about his hometown and Zoe and Jared and Alana and the Connor Project and everything else, until his breathing was labored and you could see tears welling up in his eyes. He was clearly still broken up about everything heâd done, and a part of him always would be.
 He sniffed hard and wiped his eyes on his sleeve, saying with a watery grin, âI didnât expect for all of that to come out. Iâm sorry, thatâs a big burden to unload on you after we just metâŚâ
 You shook your head. âNo, itâs okay. I have a lot of baggage, too. Weâll just be emotionally fucked-up together.â He laughed, loud this time. It made you feel so good to make him smile, and you felt yourself laughing a little too. You chuckled again, and again, until you were both hysterically laughing at yourselves.
 Wiping a stray ironic tear from your eyes, you gushed, âOh, weâre fucked up. Weâre soooo fucked up, Evan.â He was still laughing a little. âYeah. Yeah, we are.
 âHey, what about you?â he asked. âWhatâs your damage?â You stopped laughing. âOh, man, I donât think so, bud. Not yet.â His smile faded. âWhy not?â His eyes were fragile.
 You shook your head and ran a hand through your hair. âItâs too much to talk about right now. It didnât happen very long ago.â He pressed a hand on yours gently, cautiously. âNeither did mine, [Y/N]. Youâll have to talk about it sometime. And Iâm guessing your parents arenât in the know about this, right?â
 You winced. Here we go. He pulled his hand back abruptly. âWhat is it?â he said, worried. âDid I say something wrong? Is this about your parents?â You nodded wordlessly, too distressed to speak. If you opened your mouth, it would all come tumbling out, and you couldnât let that happen.
 Evan looked at you with concern. â[Y/N], you can tell me. It⌠itâs okay. I know we just met and everything but Iâm - Iâm your friend. I want to help.â You met his eyes, his huge, sincere, beautiful blue eyes, and in that moment you knew you had found someone you could finally trust.
 And so everything came pouring out of you, about your family and your dad, your best friend, and how his eyes were always laughing, and how they stayed that way even through the chemo, even through all the treatments and surgeries and pain; you told him about how your dad would wrap you up in his big arms and tickle your face with his scratchy beard and tell you everything would be just fine. And you remembered, breathlessly, the day the laughter left his eyes for good and his body relaxed and his monitors flatlined andâŚ
 âŚand you found yourself sobbing onto Evanâs shoulder; Evan, whom you barely knew; Evan, who had betrayed everyone he loved, but who you still knew beyond a doubt that you could trust. He was stroking your hair as sobs wracked your body. You clung to his sweater and cried until you could cry no more, and then you snuffled and looked up at him.
 He smiled down at you and softly sang along as Fleet Foxes crooned in the background: "Your protector's coming home."
 âMy mom has no idea how I feel,â you said. âI never tell her anything because all I get is a lecture.â He looked concerned. â[Y/N], you need to talk to your mom about this. Thereâs no way youâre gonna feel better until you get this figured out."
 "I mean, I guess."
 A pause.
 "[Y/N]?" "Yeah?" "Can I... hold your hand?" "Uhhh... okay." "Are you sure? Because I don't have to if you don't want to or if that would make you or uncomfortable or anything, I would totally get it if y--"
 You broke him off by reaching up and kissing him suddenly and quickly. You were surprised at yourself; you'd never done anything like that before. He made a surprised little "mmf!" but didn't pull away.
 When the kiss ended, his eyes were still closed and his eyebrows raised as if he were in shock. "[Y/N]," he breathed, his eyes fluttering open, "that was, uh..."
 "...nice," you finished for him. His cheeks were colored. "Yeah." He pulled you in for another kiss, deeper this time, but sweeter, too. Evan was better than anything you'd ever known.
 Could it be that he was sincere and could be there for you? It seemed the universe had given you a bit of luck at last. Evan could take care of you and help you through your heartbreak. You were ready to heal.
 Your protector's coming home.

ace hang invites more people to fuck around on youtube
THE REAL VAMPIRES OF RC | Interview with Adrian from PerpetualThirst!
Adrian: So being a vampire... itâs like, you know, being gay. Not that youâd understand since youâre not gay. Well, Iâm not either, but Iâm a vampire.
Lily: O...kay?
Adrian: Like, no one chooses to be a vampire. Itâs just a thing that happens. Like when youâre gay. And you can tell because you have these huge pointy canine teeth and you really want to drink blood. Kinda like when youâre gay, and you want to fuck people that are the same gender as you.Â
Val: Heh. So do people like, want to kill you for it or something?
Adrian: Yeah, Iâve gotten arrested once or twice for like, just trying to get my fill. Itâs really hard. People just arenât willing to donate their blood anymore. So, like, you have to take it. Sometimes by force. Using a knife.
Lily: So youâve actually attacked someone for their blood?
Adrian: Yeah. Itâs normal.
Val: ...
Lily: ...
Adrian: You know how the cops used to attack gay people for being gay? Itâs like that.

BUSINESS LADY | Interview with some business lady!
Amelia: So tell me about this... YouTube.
Lily: Well, itâs the only major and general platform for sharing video with the general public. Well, not âonlyâ, more like âbiggest and easiest to useâ.
Amelia: I see, I see. So, what other platforms exist?
Lily: Uhhh, Twitch?
Val: But thatâs more livestreaming stuff, and itâs gamer-oriented. Oh, and DailyMotion. And Vimeo.
Lily: But DailyMotion is laggy and annoying, and Vimeoâs geared towards professional animators and stuff like that. And weâre just regular olâ kids who edit videos of us gaming.Â
Val: But YouTube has its share of problems. Like demonetizing videos that contain otherwise nonoffensive words like âlesbianâ or âgayâ or stuff like that. Like, now theyâre demonetizing everything. And for people who basically make a job through this service, itâs absolutely devastating.
Lily: Yeah, and YouTube also does nothing for content creators that actually ruin the system for everyone else. Iâm sure youâve heard of the PewDiePie scandals.Â
Amelia: Thaumas?
Thaumas: *offscreen* A very popular YouTube star has made a number of antisemetic and racist remarks in the past.Â
Lily: Oh yeah, and then there was the viewcount drop for whatever reason.Â
Val: Is that even over?
Lily: I have no clue.
Amelia: Ah, interesting. I know there are parts of my company which use this platform to... train others. So, what is the relation of this platform, to say, consumers like you? If you do view videos.
Angel: *offscreen* Ms. Fisher, the tea is ready.
Amelia: Does he know you run this channel?
Lily: Of course he does. We even had him show up in some of our videos.Â
Amelia: Can I see?
(Lily and Val exchange worried glances)

Narin: So, like, what if you four were stuck on an island together? Would you, like... fuck?
Arthur: No.
Narin: But youâre asexuals, which means you donât necessarily dislike sex. You just... donât want to fuck people on sight. Right?
Lily: No one fucking touches me.
Val: I donât really care about fucking.
Brid: Itâs not like I want to screw strangers.
Arthur: Iâm uncomfortable with the idea.
Lily: Besides, I feel like babies would be a bad idea on a desert island. And maybe they have STDs, I donât know.
Narin: But couldnât you fuck Brid?
Brid: N-No! I mean, Lilyâs just... sheâs not someone I really like...Â
Lily: Brid could have a yeast infection or something!
Narin: Just use condoms or something.
Lily: On a desert island?
Narin: Make your own!
Everyone: ............

FILMING IN LILYâS HOUSE | Danganronpa Chapter 3 w/ Not Narin!
Brooke: So whereâs your sister? Iâm kinda getting paid by the hour to tutor her.
Lily: Who knows. Just let us know if weâre being too loud. Silently. Weâre filming Danganronpa today.Â
Brooke: ...what?
Val: The video game. Danganronpa.
Brooke: ... My brotherâs going to pick me up, just saying. So, if you see this red Tesla out front, itâs his.
Val: Tesla? Holy shit.
Lily: His nameâs Grey, right? My mom wonât stop asking me to ask him about college and shit. And then she does it herself. Oh god, he must feel awkward.
Brooke: Yeah. Heâs probably not interested in you or your mom, to be honest. No wonder your sister canât stop complaining about her... Can I take my smoke break now?
Val: You smoke?
Brooke: Oh god, not again... Listen, I donât care if I die from lung cancer-
Val: No, weâre fine with it, just not in the house. And my dadâs downstairs talking with her mom. About tea. Just not around them.
Lily: Yeah, my mom will never let a smoker in the house.Â
Brooke: ...Thank you.

BE A MAN | Life Lessons w/ Angel!
Angel: *addressing lily and brid* While you may receive enjoyment out of nonconformity to gender ideals, itâs your conformity to various aspects that will help you rise in the educated world. For example, a woman should always be well-dressed. Never immodest, but well-dressed.Â
(Lily blatantly doesnât care, Bridâs listening but looking bored)
Angel: A woman should also be confident in her own sexuality, no matter what society tries to tell her. When youâve ascended high enough in the social ladder, and trust me, youâll know when, you can afford to be confident in that way. Until then, you must rely on your wits. The same applies to men. They must always follow the same rules a woman does, to uphold a standard that is to be respected. Furthermore, as women are historically more fragile and important creatures to mankindâs survival, a man must take every step to protect the women in his life, as well as to never hurt a woman themselves. Women should never be afraid to defend themselves, and speak the truth.Â
Brid: Okay, I think thatâs enough-
Angel: However, you may meet a man one day that you have... feelings for. Know that the hot feeling you get down there is absolutely normal for a woman your age, and is nothing to be ashamed of. You may start to crave the feeling of... something... down there. Long and phallic. While men arenât necessary for the long and phallic nature of the object you want in there, itâs perfectly normal to want something.
Lily: Okay, okay-
Angel: If you do decide to stick objects up your vagina, men would rather you keep it a private matter. I donât mind, of course- but men in general would rather that the only thing that enter your sacred flower be their penis-
Lily: And thatâs all the time we have for this episode. Tune in tomorrow for more shenanigans involving video games and sh-stuff. Bye. Like and subscribe.
Angel: And comment in the comments section! Only nice things of course!
*Brid facepalms*
