#even though i know who you are shhhhhhh

[lolotr]

hi babes it's me, get ready to spill all your secrets ✨ I wanna know EVERYTHING but also I don't wanna be weird, so gimme 15 with some sweet sweet details about those WIPs, maybe, if you're down for it? Also 29 and 30 pls and thank you. 😘❤️💕

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII BABES THANK YOU FOR SENDING THE ASKIES

15. What WIP are you taking into next year with you?

Which ones am I NOT taking into next year with me, jesus. so many. these are all DBD, as will be shocking to 0 of you. I have WIPs in other fandoms, but nothing I'm ACTIVELY working on

-Dead Boys Night: It would be nice if I could finish this before the year ends, but I'm not totally sure that will happen. I have ideas for the last chapter/epilogue, but I haven't been great about sitting down and actually working on it. Pray for me.

-Libraryverse: I will forever be obsessed with this little family I created. I currently have two fics that are actively in progress, nowhere near done, but they will continue to be written, as well as (hopefully) the 10+ other ideas I have for this verse. I kid you not. I am obsessed with the libraryverse.

-The Raven Cycle AU: This has been percolating for a few months, since I wrote the first chapter for payneland week. I want to develop it into a full story, and even have a couple chapters written, but I want to develop it more/get farther before posting them.

-Merthur AU: Weirdly, I also have an idea or two about the merthur vibes AU I wrote for payneland week. I've started working on the story of Edwin and Charles meeting in that verse, but I'm not sure if anything will come of it.

This is not to say these are the only ideas I have, but these are the ones with more than just vague vibes written down, lol.

29. Favorite line/passage you wrote this year?

Ugh, that's gonna be hard. I've written so much that I'm proud of this year, which is such a nice feeling. The first one that comes to mind is this, from my beach episode:

“I love you, Edwin,” he says, with the same conviction as, Let’s get you out of here. As, You’re my best mate, and you always will be. As, It looks like you’re stuck with me.  

That was one of my favorite confessions I've written.

30. Biggest surprise while writing this year?

Honestly? That I found the joy in it again. Before Dead Boy Detectives, I hadn't written much fic. I posted something here and there, usually for much smaller fandoms, but I haven't been gripped by a story in this way in YEARS. So the biggest surprise this year was that I got grabbed by the guts and wrote TENS OF THOUSANDS OF WORDS and am full of ideas and excitement. The initial rush has calmed a bit, both naturally and because I got a job and moved, but I am still having a great time writing and posting, so I'm not going anywhere.

Can I pretty please have midnight kisses with gojo 😽 (nice) thank yew!!

you’ve received a gift! ⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆ want your own gift? ・:〃➜ click here! 

the countdown to the new year was a chaotic mess of laughter, clinking glasses, and the muffled bass of a playlist that no one had agreed on but everyone tolerated. you were nursing something shoko had poured for you — its color suspiciously neon and its taste... an enigma.

“trust me, you’ll love it,” she’d said, leaving no room for argument. 

well, you were still sipping it, so maybe she had a point.

you swirled the drink in your glass absentmindedly, the countdown looming closer as you zoned out, watching everyone mill about. 

a warm weight settled at your back, and you didn’t need to turn around to know who it was — the distinct cologne and sheer audacity of someone leaning that close gave him away instantly.

“enjoying your mystery drink?” SATORU’s voice drawled, his breath tickling your ear.

“i was, until you showed up,” you shot back, though the grin tugging at your lips betrayed you.

“ouch. you wound me,” he said, placing a hand dramatically over his heart, even as he leaned in closer.

“what do you want, satoru?” you asked, taking another sip of the suspicious concoction to hide your amusement.

“who says i want something?”

“because you always want something,” you replied, finally turning your head slightly to glance at him. his usual cocky grin was in place, but his eyes held a glint of something softer, something... nervous?

you barely had time to process the thought before his face dipped down, and his lips brushed against yours.

it was quick — so quick that you almost thought you’d imagined it. 

but then you registered the warmth of his mouth, the faint hint of champagne lingering on his lips, and the way his nose bumped against yours in the brief exchange.

your brain short-circuited.

“did you just — ?”

“shhhhhhh,” he cut you off, straightening up as though he hadn’t just completely derailed your train of thought.

“satoru —”

“countdown’s starting,” he said, his voice pitched higher than usual. 

and was he... was he blushing?

you squinted at him, your mind still reeling. “are you seriously pretending you didn’t just kiss me?”

“what kiss?” he said, his grin faltering as his hand shot out to fidget with his glasses. “i think you’ve had too much of shoko’s weird science experiment.”

you blinked at him, stunned into silence. but before you could formulate a response, the room erupted into the countdown.

“ten! nine!”

“satoru —”

“eight! seven!”

“don’t make it a big deal,” he blurted out, his blush deepening.

“six! five!”

“you kissed me, and i'm the one making it a big deal?” you asked, incredulous.

“four! three!”

“look, can we just —”

“two! one! happy new year!”

the room exploded into cheers, but you barely noticed, your eyes locked on him as he stood there, sheepish and uncharacteristically shy.

“you’re unbelievable,” you muttered, setting your drink down and grabbing his tie, pulling him down to meet your lips properly this time.

the cheers and chaos around you melted away as his hands found your waist, and the kiss deepened, no longer fleeting but slow and deliberate. when you finally pulled back, his cheeks were flushed, his grin wide and stupidly endearing.

“happy new year,” he said, his voice soft but teasing.

“you’re still blushing,” you pointed out, grinning.

“and you like it,” he shot back, his confidence returning as he leaned in for another kiss.

[thepigeonhasapen]

I was wondering if you could do the Olympian Gods with a reader whose asexual? Like, what would their reactions be, would they mind, stuff like that d:

Asexual Reader, Olympian Edition

(Doing these asks out of order but shhhhhhh. Also strong warning for acephobia because Zeus in an ass)

🩷Aphrodite🩷

Very chill about it. She's the goddess of love and that includes ALL kinds of love. Self-love is one of her favorites. The fact that you know and accept who you are and that you're willing to let her in on it? Well, Aphrodite might just adore you even more than she already did.

"You’re...? Well of course I don't mind, dearest! In fact, I think that's positively wonderful!"

Regardless of whether or not you're interested, Aphrodite still can't refrain from making comments about your physical appearance. She'll try and curtail some of them if you find them uncomfortable, but she loves lavishing praise upon you and talking you up to her friends.

Partially jealous to be perfectly honest. She can't help but wonder if you have a more pure understanding of beauty because you're not looking at it though the rose-tinted lens of horny. Aphrodite is deeply fascinated by asexuality and even if she doesn't quite understand it, she tries her best.

⚔️Ares⚔️

Doesn't mind. Honestly, it doesn't even really impact him that much. Just neatly writes sex out of the equation and carries on.

"You seem nervous, my dear. You... oh? Is that all? No need to distress yourself so much over such things. I love you as you are and knowing this will not change that."

May ask you a few questions at the beginning but mostly leaves the subject alone after that.

If anyone's giving you shit, all it takes is a dirty look from Ares to shut them up. What can I say the man has a way with not using his words.

🏹Artemis🏹

You too?? Artemis tries to play it off cool but she's low-key thrilled actually. Internally screaming because thank the Fates, she can get as close to you as she wants and she doesn't have to worry about things getting Weird™️

"You’re ace? That's... cool. Sorry, that came off as really insincere. It's just... me too, you know? I got a little surprised is all. And um, we've been hanging out for a while and I just wanted to say, you know, now that we're talking about this and I know you're not gonna take this the wrong way, I think you're really neat. I love hanging out with you. ...Don't go spreading that around though, okay?"

Artemis is sex-repulsed. If you are too, she drags you to family events so she can make faces at you whenever her family starts talking about their sexual conquests. If you're not, she's deeply fascinated and will probably ask you WHY on earth you would want to do that.

Despite the fact that Artemis doesn't want to have sex, I feel like she'd still enjoy certain kinks. Primal play, petplay, and leather are things I feel she'd enjoy partaking in. (Source: I am ace and very kinky lmao)

🦉Athena🦉

What a good match, Athena is asexual too! She probably blanks your confession to be honest because she sometimes forgets that people actually have sex frequently and on purpose.

"Asexual? Yes, alright. And how fared your journey up to Olympus by the way? I hope Hermes treated you well."

Sex-neutral. Will occasionally give sex a go if her partner happens to bring it up but will mostly just forget it's existence as a thing entirely.

Athena is actually quite haughty about her asexuality. She is definitely looking down on anyone who is swayed from the path of wisdom by someone else's sex appeal. Loves that you can understand her point of view on the subject.

❄️Demeter❄️

As Demeter has aged her sex drive has shrunk to like nil so really nothing about your relationship is much different.

"Asexual...? Ah, like young Artemis, yes? Fascinating. I've never been able to pin her down long enough to converse upon the subject. Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?"

Demeter tends to be a touch more overprotective than she needs to be. If anyone even so much as gives a hint of giving you shit for it, Demeter is sending them an absolute withering glare that has the potential to kill even the most vibrant flower. She follows it up with some bitterly cold words if necessary but it rarely comes to that.

She's honestly quite relieved about it really. She was never really that horny of a person and is happy to find someone who can relate to that. I personally think Demeter is some kind of acespec but that might also be my asexual ass projecting my aceness onto every character I get my grubby little hands on lol

🍇Dionysus🍇

Chill about it. He's chill about literally everything, what do you expect? Dionysus is commonly associated with trans people and I like to believe that queer people in general just flock to him because he's just so open and accepting.

"Ace, yeah? Congrats, man, thanks for telling me. Just let me know if I ever step on any toes, 'kay?"

Not gonna lie, he secretly corners Artemis and Athena to bother them on the subject just in case he's got it wrong. He didn’t as it turns out, but he's glad he checked in anyway because it was an enlightening conversation. With Athena anyway. Artemis runs off at the first available opportunity.

Happy to go whatever speed you want, if you want to go any speed at all. He may still get a little handsy sometimes but he doesn't mean anything by it, he just really likes holding you like a teddy bear. Honestly, I think he'd get a real kick out of somebody aegosexual and think it was such a super fun party trick that you can say such horny things and not be interested at all. Probably mildly pesters you to engage with smutty things because he finds your unamused expressions absolutely fascinating.

🪽Hermes🪽

Bursts out laughing when you tell him. It's not for the reason you think and he does feel really bad about it when he sees your face.

"Haha, of all the...! Haha– oh, hey, hey, I'm sorry, it's not that. I totally don't mind you being ace or anything, far from it, it's just that I seem to have an accidental habit for attracting your type and I seem to be collecting you."

Besides you, the person Hermes spends the most time with is Charon... who is also asexual. Hermes, the uberhorny hypersexual fuckbunny who would literally die for a quickie every five minutes find this hilarious. Opposites attract I guess? Hermes has a good giggle about it everytime he thinks about it.

Doesn't mind if you don't want to have sex. If you do, great! But if you don't, it's not a big deal.

🔱Poseidon🔱

Poseidon is... confused. It'll work out better if you're sex-repulsed and straight up don't want to have sex ever, otherwise poor Poseidon will absolutely struggle. He doesn't understand the difference between sexual attraction and aesthetic attraction and is just genuinely so out of his depth. You like the way he looks... but you don't want to have sex with him??

"What's that? Asexual? I, uh... okay, just between the two of us, you're gonna have to explain that one to me, babe."

He talks to Dionysus. Even after that he still doesn't get it. Poseidon tries his best to be supportive but has like no idea how. Probably shooes away people who try to even mention sex in your vicinity. It's gonna take awhile before he understands how this works. Confused but he's got the spirit kinda?

May initially try to convince you that you just haven't had good sex yet. Sit him down, explain this all to him, and he'll probably get it. Okay, let's be honest, he still doesn't get it but he respects your choice and generally leaves the subject alone. His libido is quite high though so he will frequently sleep around just to scratch that itch.

⚡️Zeus⚡️

We were doing good until we got to you, huh Zeus? Zeus just quite firmly doesn't believe in asexuality. He definitely thinks you're just confused or that you haven't had sex right yet or that you'll change your mind at some point.

"Asexual? Oh dear, have you been talking to that daughter of mine, Artemis? She's always on about something or other, if she chooses to talk to us at all."

Zeus won't force you to have sex but he will make subtle (he thinks he's being subtle anyway) comments about how you're a tease or a prude. If you're interested in having sex, Zeus doesn't understand the definition and just thinks you don't find him attractive. His feelings are now hurt. He will be throwing a violent totally-not-a-tantrum now.

Will eventually, probably shut up about it. Look, he's never gonna understand it so shutting up about it is the best you're gonna get from him. This idiot thinks with his penis, okay? Athena stole all the intelligence from him at birth. Just doesn't get it, very confused, cannot even comprehend the idea of not wanting to bang everything in sight.

Challenges and Bingos: HBS week 10 - Shhhhhhh

Summary: Okay, maybe getting it on in the bathroom during the summer office party at Steve’s work wasn’t the best idea, but in Bucky’s defence, watching Steve, who already looked like the hottest thing on the planet in his blue linen suit, talk corporate and command the room had sent his libido sky-rocketing. He’d been so handsy when Steve had stepped down from the podium, already starting to float around the edges of subspace, that Steve had had no option but to hustle him away before he did something that even out-raged an exhibitionist like Tony Stark.

Relationship: Steve Rogers x Bucky Barnes

Word Count: 1.7k

CW: Modern A/U, Shrinkyclinks, PWP, D/S relationship, Daddy kink, Semi-public sex, crying during sex, subspace, Prostate milking/coming untouched, Dom Steve Rogers, Sub Bucky Barnes

“Shhhhhh. You gotta keep the noise down, baby.” Bucky’s eyes rolled up into his head as Steve crooned in his ear. It wasn’t like he was being noisy on purpose, but it was hard to rein it in when his diminutive dom had two fingers knuckle deep into his ass and stroking his prostate.

Okay, maybe getting it on in the bathroom during the summer office party at Steve’s work wasn’t the best idea, but in Bucky’s defence, watching Steve, who already looked like the hottest thing on the planet in his blue linen suit, talk corporate and command the room had sent his libido sky-rocketing. He’d been so handsy when Steve had stepped down from the podium, already starting to float around the edges of subspace, that Steve had had no option but to hustle him away before he did something that even out-raged an exhibitionist like Tony Stark.

Thank goodness for sachets of lube and private bathrooms. Although being able to see how utterly fucked out he looked in the mirror as he was bent over the sink with his pants around his ankles wasn’t helping him regain his equilibrium.

“You’re not normally so needy, baby. What’s gotten into you?” Steve combined his question with another swipe over his prostate and Bucky bit down heavily on his lip to stop another cry from making its way out of his throat.

“You. Sexy. Oh God! Wanted.” He knew he was rambling, but Steve was shorting all his circuits.

“My sweet boy. So in love with your Daddy, hmm?”

“Yes. Yes!”

“Doesn’t mean you can be a brat though.” Steve’s free hand tugged on Bucky’s ponytail and the fingers in his ass stilled. “Does it?”

The sudden change pulled Bucky back towards the surface and his brain started to register the trouble he was in. He wasn’t a brat - not normally. He much preferred to be Steve’s good boy, being rewarded for his pliant behaviour and submission rather than acting out and being punished until he submitted.

“No. ‘Doesn’t. ‘M sorry, Daddy. Please. I didn’t mean…”

“Shhhhhh.” Steve cooed again, restarting the prostate massage. “I know you didn’t mean it. You’re my good boy, aren’t you? Just forgot you’re supposed to wait, didn’t you.”

“Mmmmm.” Bucky bit down on his lip again and nodded his head. A tear spilled over his lower eyelid and slid down his cheek from how overwhelmed he was feeling. “You looked so good, Daddy. Forgot myself. I can be good. I can wait.”

“Can you?” Steve questioned. “If I stopped now and we went back out there, would you be able to behave? Wait for me to be finished and ready to take you back home?”

“Yes,” Bucky replied with a whimper. It would be difficult - nigh on impossible - but he’d do it if it was what Steve wanted of him. And he knew Steve knew it too. His dom sometimes liked to challenge him, but he never set him up to fail.

“I don’t think I will, though. I’m quite enjoying this. Having you desperate. And needy.”

As Steve mused upon what he should do, Bucky couldn’t help but float away again, Steve’s low voice and sinful fingers breaking each tether he had with the responsibilities of reality. There was just each moment on its own. Each electric touch that led onto another, then another and Bucky felt he’d turned into a giant ball of sensation. It was always like this Steve. Ever since the moment they’d first met, Bucky had been under his spell, and the fact that Steve had admitted the same about Bucky made it all the sweeter. They complimented each other so perfectly, each finding in the other that which they’d been searching for.

“Do you wanna come, baby?”

Steve’s question, combined with fingers tripping up his spine under his dress shirt, pulled him back up once again. The question was almost entirely rhetorical, but Bucky had to answer just the same.

“Please, Daddy. Wanna. So bad.”

“Then you can.” Bucky let out a sigh of relief, but Steve wasn’t finished with his instructions. “However, you can’t touch yourself. If you want to come then you’ll do it just like this. On Daddy’s fingers.” For emphasis Steve wiggled his digits and Bucky choked back an inelegant squawk. “You wanted my touch so badly, then that’s what you get. But you can be a good boy now for me, can’t you?”

Bucky couldn’t think, couldn’t answer. He wanted to touch his cock - or have Steve touch it - so badly. But he wanted - needed - to be a good boy for his Daddy.

“I don’t wanna rush you, sweetheart, but folk will start to wonder where we are if we don’t get back out there soon. So I’m gonna count down from thirty. When I get to one, I’m stopping and you’ll just have to wait until we get home. You understand, baby?”

Bucky could only whine as he nodded his head, more tears starting to trail down his cheeks.

“Thirty… Twenty-nine… Twenty-eight…”

He tried to tune out the countdown, and just focus on what he was feeling. Steve’s free hand remained on his back, drawing patterns on his skin in time to the movements of the fingers still buried deep within him. They’d done a lot of things together, but coming untouched within a time limit? This was going to be something new, but Bucky never backed down from a challenge.

“Twenty-one… Twenty… Nineteen…”

Steve’s thumb brushed over his balls and Bucky sucked in a stuttered breath. He knew his cock was leaking, and it would only take the smallest touch to send him over the edge, but he wouldn’t. Instead he concentrated on the feeling building inside him. It was growing like a ball of warmth and pressure somewhere in his pelvis.

“Twelve… Eleven… Ten…”

He tried to remember what it felt like on the other occasions where they’d tried this - minus the time pressure - he recalled seeing stars and feeling as though he’d been turned inside out as he’d exploded like a volcano. It was an experience he was more than ready to have again. And the fact that all of Steve’s friends and co-workers were on the other side of the door, oblivious to what was going on…. all he needed to do was concentrate, because if Steve stopped now…

“Five… Four… Three…”

Steve twisted his wrist and Bucky knew two things in that instant - his Dom didn’t want him to fail and that this was nothing like last time. His whole body felt like a live-wire as his orgasm ripped through him. He bit down on the meat of his thumb to stifle the grunts and whines that bubbled up his throat as supernovas were born and died behind his eyelids. His head spun and he didn’t know if it was from too much oxygen or not enough, but it was stupendous and wonderful and paralysing all at once. However, after an eternity, the universe started to right itself and become level before his eyes and he sucked in a deep breath, followed by another.

“There he is…” Steve rubbed up and down his back with the heel of his hand that had been tormenting pleasuring him, which was when Bucky realised the other one was cupped around the head of his cock. His confusion only lasted a moment before it was replaced with a feeling of gratefulness so strong he couldn’t vocalise it. Steve had saved him from making a mess of his suit by catching his cum. 

Bucky’s head shot up to meet Steve’s devilish smirk in the reflection of the mirror and he felt dizzy all over again as Steve raised his hand up and licked away at the mess on his palm. “Sit down, baby, and I’ll get us cleaned up, yeah?” Steve inclined his head towards the closed toilet lid and Bucky staggered the couple of steps over to it, feeling as elegant as a baby giraffe. He watched through hooded eyes as Steve washed his hands and the mirror of his Dom caught his eye and smiled. Bucky couldn’t help but giggle back.

Having dried his hands, Steve readjusted his straining pants and turned toward Bucky.

“How’re you doing there?” he teased with a smile.

“Just peachy, Daddy,” Bucky replied with his own, dopey one.

“Do you need to go for a nap in my office, or will you be alright to come and do the last few rounds of schmoozing with me?” Steve crouched down and started to tuck Bucky back into his briefs and inch his pants back up his legs. Bucky managed to raise his butt to assist, although he had to grip the toilet lid so he didn’t fall sideways.

“Don’t wanna be without you. I’ll be okay if I can hold your hand. But what about you?” Bucky stared unabashedly at the bulge in Steve’s pants. 

“It’ll be fine. Unlike some, I can be patient and wait until I have a soft comfortable bed at my disposal.”

Bucky blushed at the teasing tone, but Steve clicked his tongue and tipped Bucky’s chin up with a finger underneath. “For me, the wait is worth the reward, but never apologise for wanting me. I love how much you need me.” He bent down and kissed Bucky softly and sweetly, then stepped back and offered his hand to help Bucky up. Steve then smoothed out Bucky’s shirt and suit jacket and re-straightened his tie. “There. You don’t look completely fucked out, but I have no doubt that I’ll be getting shit from Tony for weeks. Totally worth it though.” Steve shot Bucky a jokey wink, easing any rising anxiety about getting his boyfriend in trouble. “And,” Steve added, “it’s not as though Tony hasn’t done similar enough things in his time. Now, that’s you as put to rights as possible. Let’s get out there, do the rounds and then head home, where I have plans for the mouth of yours. I need to practise various ways of keeping you quiet.”

spin the bottle → grease: rise of the pink ladies preferences

summary — spin the bottle is all fun and games until your crush moves to spin...

written for this request

characters — jane, olivia, cynthia, richie, gil, potato

JANE FACCIANO

. poor girl didn't want to play to begin with but ESPECIALLY not now

. she looks so nervous when it's your turn and nobody knows why 😭 they're like, ".....you good, girl?" and she's like, "YEAH! great! perfect, even!" okay girl....

. i feel like it would be the worst for her if your spin landed on a t-bird because even if you've showed no prior interest to them she'd be like "oh but they're friends i can see them together :("

. overdramatic girlie can't see the way you're looking at her like you wanted the bottle to land on her instead

. definitely looked away when you kissed the guy

. not in a way to gain attention or anything, probably just 'fixing' her nails or something

. would definitely interrogate you later on in the night — "so.... how was the kiss? do you like him? do you love him? was it good?"

. kiss her to shut her up and things will be perfect

OLIVIA VALDOVINOS

. she's not used to being a jealous person so she's very confused and a bit overwhelmed when it's your turn to spin and she feels like throwing the bottle at somebody's head

. she'd feel bad for you too because she can feel your anxiety 😭

. poor babygirl just wants to pick you up and take you on a nice lil date

. would give the guy your bottle lands on such a death stare

. ESPECIALLY IF ITS RICHIE

. to be fair neither you or richie want to kiss eachother with him liking jane and you liking his sister 💀

. but you guys are close friends anyway so the little peck isn't awkward between you

. someone would probs be like "too short, doesn't count!" but shut up really quick when richie gives them a look

. put your pinkie over olivias when you got back to sit with her and everything will be okay 😊

CYNTHIA ZDUNOWSKI

. lowkey sour even though she's the one who suggested the game in the first place 😭

. it didn't really register to her that you'd have to spin too until it was your turn

. "you don't have to if you don't want to." said to you and someone else in the circle yelling back that she forced them to spin 💀

. you're her exception xo

. but you spun anyway so she was already in a mood and it only got worse when it landed directly on some guy in your english class who was visibly in love with you

. she's definitely scoffing and rolling her eyes. gets such a strange look from nancy

. you can feel the tension radiating from cynthia and you don't even really like the guy (bless his heart) so it's a quick little 5 second peck and a smile from you and then it's over

. she's 100% got a little smug smile when the guy clearly wanted to kiss you for longer, but you pulled away

. gets suspiciously more clingy with you for the rest of the night, but if anyone says anything about it, she's like, "im drunk shhhhhhh" and she's had, like, one beer 🧍‍♀️

RICHIE VALDOVINOS

. he did not want to play. like at all.

. because he knew that a) he'd probably have to kiss someone else and because he's not a little boy, he knows that trying to make you like him by making you jealous isn't gonna work, and b) he'd probably have to see you kiss someone else. absolutely not

. it would be his worst nightmare if your spin landed on a soc

. he would be in a mood for the rest of the night

. or at least until his spin where he got lucky and landed on you

. a smug little side eye to the soc you kissed as he goes closer to you

. pink ladies and t-birds rolling their eyes like "finally 🥱🙄"

. truly sick and tired of the tension between you two

. the soc you kissed looking so uncomfortable because with him it was a stiff little peck and you're fully gripping richie's face 💀

. he likes the game now <3

. drove you home after the party for the chance to kiss you again

. ended up staying the night xx

GIL RIZZO

. easily the best at hiding how much he hates it

. but rest assured, no matter how chill and fun-loving he looks, he is enraged when your spin lands on one of your thespian friends

. poor baby doesn't know that it's really funny for you both because the guy is gay 😭

. so when he sees you kiss him with no tension and a smile on your face he's like "oh......"

. but you keep looking at him and smiling?? he's so confused??

. maybe he's not as good at hiding his longing as he thought...

. he definitely wasn't.

. you saw the death stares and scowls

. you were fed up!!

. like stop being a brooding baby and kiss me already!!! please!!!!

. he will eventually xx

. he definitely tried to kiss you after the game but you guys got cockblocked by jane accidentally because she burst into the room you two were in because she needed to talk to you

. jane facciano, the hot girl mood killer xoxo

. some other night maybe 💔

POTATO

. he played purely for the chance to kiss you

. so when the bottle landed directly between him and a guy who openly liked you, he was fully prepared to see you kiss the other guy

. but then you tapped his hand and suddenly you were right in front of him and he was trying (and failing) to hide how excited he was

. longer than any of the other kisses

. wolf whistles left right and centre

. very blushy very awkward very cute

. a small little "that was nice" that only you could hear when you pulled away

. ego boosted fr but trying to not look like an asshole

. definitely went with you to the kitchen after the game and you two talked about it and you gave him another little kiss <3

. nancy and cynthia walked in on you while they were trying to get some drinks and immediately ran off to tell the pink ladies and t-birds

. getting hard-core interrogated by the two gangs on the way out and he's a smiley little mess beside you and you're like "yeah he's my silly little bf now <3"

I read one of the asks about the Links wanting to court reader, and Four's got me thinking. Cause being tall IS such a big thing nowaday, but like, what about the short kings (and queens) and the average height peeps. Anyways I wrote this based on that :)

-----------------------------------------------------------

"He's a little short for my taste." "Nuh uh, Y/n you could do so much better." Bringing your boyfriend to meet your friends was a mistake, you had hoped they would keep their comments concerning his height to themselves, but alas, they were back at it again with their short shaming. Four wasn't even here to defend his honor, part of you was relieved he wasn't there to here the rude remarks, the other was disgusted that they were making them behind his back. So you did your best to quiet their voiced opinions, "Please, I find his height cute. There's plenty to him besides physical attractiveness anyways, although he's definitely not lacking in that department. He's cunning and witty, he's such a sweetie it's adorable, he's an accomplished blacksmith and his handiwork is highly revered where he's from. HE'S highly revered where he's from and-" "Okay okay, we get it. All we're saying is that you could do better hon," one of your friends interrupt with. "I beg to differ," you mumble under your breath, absolutely done with your friends.

Later that day Four walks into his house to see you sprawled on his couch. "Y/n?? Weren't you out with your friends?" "Hmm? Yeah, I left early though, got tired of their rude comments. Hi by the way, sorry 'bout crashing at your place, I just needed to get away for a bit y'know?" You drowsily answered once you realized it was Four speaking. Four frowned at your words as he moved to sit beside you on the couch, jumping on you instead when you refused to scooch over, causing you to squawk in suprise. It didn't take long for the two of you to get comfy after Four was finished laughing at your misfortune. "What were they talking about that made you so upset?" Four asked as he gently ran his fingers through your hair, said actions causing you to relax against him. "Wha- oh," you dumbly replied, stiffening up at the mention of your friends. After a moment of hesitation you continued, "They were making comments about your height. Talking about how short you were and saying I could do better or whatever, just a bunch of crap." Four stayed quiet for a bit, you began to get worried you said too much, but before you could say anything Four spoke, "They're not wrong you know. I am pretty short, and you deserve so much better than-" "Shshshshshsh, nuh uh, nope, stop right there, shush." "But-" "Shhhhhhh," you interrupt again, "Are you short? Yes, absolutely, and I love you all the more for it. It suits you. But under no circumstances am I to here you say that I deserve more than you, am I understood?" Four simply nodded, to suprised to actually say anything. "I left early to get away from hearing that. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me and the best thing that ever will happen. No one could make me happier and nothing could make me love you more than you being you Link." The two of you sat there quietly, gears obviously turning in Four's head. "Thank you," he whispered softly, "You have no idea how much that means to me, I love you so much." "I know, I love you too."

Oh that's cute!! <3 :)

Thank you so much for sharing. That was lovely.

I say we should acknowledge shortness more- as someone who is short. (But I have to be honest- mostly in guys. No one questioned it if the girl is the short one) XD

Perfect. Love it.

Finished reading that s/o being stalked and I must admit it's a chef kiss. If you have free time can you do part 2 with Fyodor,Nikolai and sigma if you write for them? Or if you can't, can you do where the stalker still stalks the s/o ?

!Nikolai Gogol With An S/O Who Has A Stalker!

Scenario:Nikolai finds out you have a stalker!how will he deal with it??

Pairing: nikolai gogol x gn!reader

Genre: im rly not sure tbh...

Type: oneshot

A/N: Hi anon! Okay soo,here’s the deal,i dont rly write for any of them but i also dont think the stalker would ever come back...buttt i also dont wanna ignore your ask or just not give you anything sooo,imma do a nikolai piece!also disclaimer it might be ooc cos im not rly sure i hv his personality down right so apologies in advance :’) i hope you like it and feel free to lmk what you think if you want!

Nikolai gogol was an observant individual,and even though many people just took him to be an eccentric and impulsive clown(which he was) he did in fact have the ability to be calculated and observant,he just didnt wanna be~

So when he came home from a looongg assignment,he noticed how on-edge you seemed.how scared,uptight and jumpy you were.

He also knew you wouldnt tell him what it was for fear of either boring him or coming off as bitchy and childish.

So he dug;his curiosity was piqued and he was bored soooo he made it his mission to find out what was haunting you.

After not a lot of digging he found the root cause of your paranoia!

A stalker~

Honestly when he found out you had a stalker he was overjoyed!

Now he had a new plaything~

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day your stalker was preparing themselves to send you another 'love' letter.

But after they'd dropped it into the box to be collected and delivered the next day,they ran into a young man.

He looked to be in his early to mid 20s and he had dual coloured eyes and snow white hair.

Your stalker excused themselves and was about to be on their way when the young man grabbed their wrist and ,whispering in a happy tone, said, "do you like quizzes????? " before enveloping them in his coat.

Your stalker then found themselves in a dark room that smelled like dust.

They tried to get up,but were repeatedly knocked down by an invisible attacker,eventually they stopped trying and just crouched down.

“WHO ARE YOU!” Your stalker asked, “WHAT DO YOU WANT?!”

‘Ha!’ Nikolai thought to himself, ‘they look really upset,the audacity on this one is marvellous!’

But all he said was “Shhhhhhh, i’mmm the one asking the questions here~”

“And if you’re even hoping to escape,you’ll listen and answer them well”

He heard a gulp and a shakey breath being drawn,which caused him to smile from his hiding place.

“Now then, why dont we start with an easy one, what do you want with y/n l/n?”

“Who??i dont know what the hell youre talking about!!”

“AEKK! WRONG ANSWER!”

A golden vortex appeared and swallowed your stalker’s leg.

they were left one leg short.

After realising what had just happened, they screamed out!

“Hehehehee sorry,did i forget to tell you the rules????? Oh silly me!always forgetting important things! The rules are simple! Tell the truth,”

“Or lose a limb!”

He cackled maniacally and your stalker broke into a cold sweat.

They were in deep shit now...

“So~ go on, second chance! What.do.you.want.with.y/n l/n.”

Nikolai wasnt even asking anymore,he was demanding.

“I’M TELLNG YOU THE TRUTH I DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT!”

“AEK!! WRONG AGAIN!Gosh i really thought you’d answer when you knew the stakes....But i guess your appendages must mean nothing to you~”

Your stalker’s other leg was swallowed up.

Another scream pierced the air.

Nikolai yawned.

“OKAY-OKAY FINE! I LIKE Y/N OKAY! I JUST HAVENT HAD THE COURAGE TO TELL THEM!”

“Ooohh suddenly compliant are we? Well then! Sad to say you’re answer wont save you~”

“Huh???”

“Oh yeah.i cant have you bothering my love now can i?? Sooo you’ll have to die!”

And with that another vortex appeared but this time a man pointing a gun stepped out.he pulled down the hammer down and cocked the gun before holding it right to your stalker’s head.

“NO! YOU CANT!! I PROMISE ILL STOP!!”

“Ehhh no~ id much rather kill you.eases my conscience~”

“BUT IT ISNT RIGHT! I HAVENT DONE ANYTHING WRONG!”

“Sure sure,threatening letters arent anything wrong but also,regardless of if you did that or not id still kill you.because i want to.its my will.and unlike you im not restricted by the bonds of morality.I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT!”

“And right now,i want to shoot you”

“NO!PLEASE WAIT!”

“Toodles~”

BANG!

Nikolai gogol got home that day and saw you sat at the table doing some work.

He hugged you from behind and burried his head in the crook of your neck,his stray hairs tickling your ear.

“Hello y/n~” he said,peppering kisses all over your your cheek,neck and shoulder.

You raised your hadn to let it sit in his hair,ruffling the white floofles you loved so much.

“Hey kolya....how was your day?where were you?”

“Oh you know,taking care of some business.”

“Hmm” you sighed at his response.

“Oh and about that stalker of yours,”

You suddenly went stiff,you hand which had come down to lay over his arms which were wrapped around you,gripped them with sudden tension.

“Dont worry,i took care of it.gave them a stern talking to!they’ll never bother you again!” He said.

And you deflated at that,sudden tears of relief streaming down your face.

You got up and turned around in his arms to face him.the smile on your fave was as radiant as ever.

“Thank you,kolya” you said before pressing a chaste kiss to his lips.

You both smiled into the kiss.

“Anytime dove~”

[𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫] jake seresin

“you’re drunk”

“tipsy” you corrected.

jake opens the car door and reaches over you to unbuckle your seatbelt. you take this opportunity to kiss jake’s cheek and wrap your arms around his neck as he scoops you up to carry you inside. he smells like irish spring soap and an expensive cologne that you secretly love, even though you gave him shit for spending that much money on a cologne.

“let’s get you to bed yeah?”

“you smell amazing” you say as you bury your face into his neck to inhale his scent.

“where was this energy when i bought the cologne huh? made me feel guilty about it for like a week”

“i made you feel guilty?” you pull your face away from his neck to look up at him with the saddest eyes he has ever seen.

“a little, but now i see your true colors so don’t worry about it pumpkin.” he says placing a kiss on your head while setting you down on the bed.

“i need to change” you whine and jake laughs.

“i know, i’ll find something you can change into”

“can it be my favorite sleep shirt?”

“you mean my annual naval picnic shirt?”

“mhm” you nod proudly.

“you want pants with that sugarplum?” he says going through the drawers to find the shirt.

“no thank you” you beam as you swing your legs on the edge of the bed waiting.

“okay then, arms up” you happily obliged and lift your arms so jake can remove the current outfit you have on and replace it with the very comfortable sleep shirt you love dearly.

“i love you ya know”

“i know baby i love you too” he responds leaning in and planting a kiss on your lips. “you ready for bed now?”

“mhm, can we cuddle?”

“of course we can sweetie, now lay down” you move to your side of the bed and watch as jake moves into bed.

“alright c’mere” he says opening his arms for you to move into, you move into his hold and practically melt.

“i love being in your arms, there’s truly now place i would rather be”

“aw that’s sweet—”

“except the beach”

“heyyyy”

“goodnight honey i love you very very much” you declare before placing a final kiss on his cheek and falling asleep.

“i love you too, sleep well baby” jake says placing one last kiss on your forehead.

in the morning you woke up with the second worst hangover of your life and you were barely able to pull yourself out of the soft, warm and very comfortable bed. jake had gotten up maybe an hour ago to start on breakfast and you decided you needed to get up and follow him after thinking about it for that whole hour.

“well look who finally got up”

“shhhhhhh” you bring a finger up to your lips. “so loud”

“sorry” he says in a quieter voice. “how did you sleep?”

“amazing, i would’ve slept longer if someone hadn’t gotten up” you mumble.

“apologies darlin’ but i made you some breakfast for your troubles” you mutter something that jake can’t really make out as he places a plate in front of you, along with some tylenol.

“thank you”

“of course pumpkin” he says placing a kiss on your head.

Azul Ship Headcanons

So I already made a thread ranking(?? Judging?? I dunno lols) all the Azul ships I care about and so here's a post with headcanons for them and I have important things to do but shhh don't remind me and I won't remind you :)

Azuvil 🐙👑

I dunno all my energy for this ship died but I think it would be fun to write or read or work with because imagine they're both doing it for like appearances or something else of that manner and someone catches feelings or something but also they both think the other one thinks it's real from the beginning ??? So fake dating but extra steps. There's like this one fic that put this into my head but I don't remember the name lols

Azujami 🐙🐍

I really already explained this in the tweet but yeah this is only good when they get together after university (not NRC, but after they graduate and then graduate uni) and then get married and then divorced and then the story is them healing at fifty. Perhaps they become just friends, perhaps Azul learns to leave well enough alone, perhaps Jamil gets mad, perhaps they go their own ways, maybe one of them dies ?? I dunno this would seem fun to play around with :)

Jeiazu 🐬🐙

I don't really have anything to say about this, except if you aren't related or already in different relationship, being business partners? Pretty gay ngl. Pretty queer.

Floazu 🦈🐙

Do I have to write about this? Why did I include it. This is not a ship I care about like at all :/ Bumping it down to 1/10 ya'know I hate the childhood friends to lovers trope? It's too messy why would you date your childhood bestie I would let her kill me yes have we spoken in years no but would I date her no. No that's silly. I despise the trope actually. Please get it out of my face ahhhhh anyways

Azuide 🐙💀

I don't know why I included this either errrrr.. though I feel like they would bond over chess. The whole thing with the game of life in the comic anthology was pretty funny and I feel like working with a relationship with them would be very silly because it would be like that all the time and also neither of them know how to give or recieve affection properly so lols

Azurook 🐙🏹

As I said, this is literally just Rook being like "ooh interesting what if...I hunted you down??" and me projecting my unhealthy relationship with attention onto Azul. Oops.

Also I wanna be able to come up with cool ship names TwT I wanna come up with something like eight tailed arrow or something but everytime I try it sounds so stupidddddd how do y'all do itttttt I'm sure there are other people who have come up with this ship and maybe I just sound stupid let's move on.

Lizu/Water Spirit 👻🐙

Okay so this is really a crackship like she found him not up to standard but imagine if she didn't and also imagine if they got married and imagine if the whole story was just them healing in the afterlife?? That would be pretty cool imo :) So yeah that's it. It's gotta be awful to be seventeen for five hundred years and I'm gonna be honest I don't remember how she died so maybe she could work through that and Azul can work through his self worth issues and body issues, especially that he is now without a proper form. It would be cute, imagine it !

Zuel/Sailor's Lungs 🐙🫁

'Cause selfship names have no rules !!! But also this doesn't even count even because we're literally the same guy (not like I am him or vise versa but more like we're similar) so it would be like dating a fucked up mirror. Selfcest 😭😭😭 Zero out of ten, moving on.

AzuRid 🐙🌹

I forgot to include this in the original thread, oops. They're t4t lesbians (transfem riddle and transmasc nonbinary azul <3) and also in love and also the healthiest relationship here (shhh these are my headcanons I do what I want they get along beautifully once they get together) and also happy !!! Finally !!! And also they would be fun to work with because academic rivals to lovers is always fun. (I know these images are crispy as hell shhhhhhh don't mention it)

End of Headcanons !!!

If you have more please share I need more things to read to distract me from my schoolwork because my eyes hurt and my bones hurt an d I need to do something <3

[legacyshenanigans]

Guess who's here again B!!....At this point I should rename myself to #1 Rominis fan, I swear the amount of times I've asked you about them feels criminal.... I'm so sorry if y'all are done with my simping for these two you especially B, plese tell me straight away if you ever get tired of me asking for them 😖😖😖

Now If you're still not tired of me here's what I've got for you today:

Does Rowan ever get nightmares about the night he lost his parents and his entire community? I feel like this could also make a really sweet Rominis interaction, Rowan having a pretty nasty nightmare and Omi comforting him....🥺🐺🐍❤️

Today I've only got this one because like I wrote in the beginning I'm really starting to feel bad for constantly asking about them.

If you still don't mind my asks I love you guys and you B especially thank you so much for constantly making my days better with each post you make (even the traumatising ones🤣❤️) your an absolute tresure of the HL community and I'm so glad I found you ❤️❤️✨✨

Have a pleasant evening and hopefully some normal sleep, as always your little Dragon friend 🐲🏔️💚

Lil Dragon! Stop it! I dont mind your asks you can always send them in, I do the asks I wanna do, I thus far, I really enjoy the things you send my way! Even if they're always Rominis, which I dont mind! 💚 this is also the perfect ask for me to possibly add on to the other ask you sent me which I did before, "has Rowan ever lost control" I could blend that into this one in a way :)

And thank you so so much for saying that 💜 makes it all worth it to know my stuff is enjoyed, and it makes me REALLY happy to hear that stuff, can't lie, 🥹

Big love to you 😘💜

Nightmares 🐺

Ominis stirred and turned in his bed one evening, feeling movement and noise from Rowan, he had a look of slight confusion on his face, hearing Rowan aggressively growling and snarling as he began to thrash on the sheets, Ominis reached over touching him, though he was a little frightened.

Ominis: Rowan?!

Rowan suddenly burst into his werewolf form, not knowing for a moment where he was, his mind clouded by his night terror, he reached out and gripped Ominis's throat, letting out an aggressive deep growl, his fangs inches away from Ominis's face. He was suddenly brought back to consciousness, seeing what he was doing, and Ominis looking terrified.

Ominis: R-Rowan?...

Rowan: *turns back into his human form, looking horrified himself for a moment* Ominis..Oh god *let's go of his throat* I..Shit..I'm so sorry *sits up properly on the bed, looking at Ominis and strokes his hair*

Ominis touched his own neck, feeling the deep imprint of Rowans claws at the side.

Rowan: I'm so so sorry..I..Urgh!

Ominis: Shh shh shh, its OK.. Its not your fault..Did you have a nightmare or something?

Rowan: ....Yeah..Been a while...It was..My family.. my community.. The night they all died, it was like I was there again.. Reliving it...I'm sorry..

Ominis: Stop apologising..Come here *holds open his arms*

Rowan: *deep sigh as he leans into Ominis*

Ominis: *stroking Rowans head gently*

Rowan: *feels Ominis's neck softly* I'm sor-

Ominis: Shhhhhhh. *continues to comfort Rowan*

Hi I'm a recovering WoW nerd and I know that 99% of people don't care but I have fun facts. (It's about the Leeroy Jenkins video and if you played WoW back when that was a thing you probably know all of this already but shhhhhhh)

Break because longggggggggg

Leroy Jenkins. A name many know. Or did, at least, I think that meme is probably fairly dead at this point.

But if you have heard of this meme and have watched the video, there are few jokes in it that are very WoW inside knowledge that I don't hear people talking about enough.

Mostly because it's an old video about an old wow raid and was a staged marketing tool for guild recruitment but anyways! I'm going to talk about it! I will not be silenced!

The video, for those who need a refresher or haven't seen it and just know the funny screaming guy, has a group of wow nerds sitting in a raid (blackrock...spire? One of the blackrocks) talking about an upcoming fight they have had troubles with in the past.

They discuss strategy for a bit, don't seem optimistic, and then our hero, Leeroy, gets back from being away, proclaims loudly, "alright chums time's up let's do this LEEEEROYYYY JENKINSSS" before running in to the room.

The guild follows after and tries to make the best of the situation but it's chaos and they are very quickly all on the ground dead. There's some name calling and blaming as everyone dies.

Simple video yeah? Yes. But! There is a hidden second layer! It was not intended to be hidden, but as the video reached a broader audience it kinda became lost.

This hidden truth (it's not hidden) ,this lost meaning (the meaning was not lost), this history that I am bringing to life for all of you (so many people have pointed this out I'm sure), is that not just Leeroy, but everyone in the guild is supposed to be seen as an idiot.

Let's start with the strategy, shall we? They mention they're going to start by having some run in first and gather up all of the eggs, so that they can all be killed with AoE spells. (Area of effect, for the uninitiated. It means it hits everyone in a certain area)

Next, to keep from being overwhelmed, they will be using intimidating shout, which causes enemies to stop attacking and run in random directions for a bit. Finally, they will be using divine intervention on their mages, a very powerful spell that makes the target completely immune to damage. They do this to let the mages run in and use AoE as much as possible without fear of getting murdered.

And yeah sure this might sound like a comprehensive plan on paper... with the minor caveat that no part of this plan works even a little.

Let's start off by talking about the room they're going into. It's full of little dragon whelp eggs. When anyone/anything gets too close - the eggs hatch and they come out. The dragon whelps don't have too much life but they do hurt and there are a lot.

To start - trying to run in and gather up the eggs is the opposite of what you should be doing. Even with good gear and healing, you're still probably going to die before the whelps do, there are just too many. You're supposed to take this room slowly.

The idea of grouping up a lot of small mobs like this might work though, with some very good luck and very high AoE dps. Still probably not with these whelps. But maybe! If you executed it perfectly.

The rest of the plan would be not executing it perfectly. Intimidating shout causes nearby mobs to stop attacking and run around. That's good right? Sometimes! It's definitely not good when your plan was "group them up so we can kill them quickly".

It's also not good if all those fleeing enemies are opening more eggs and getting more enemies attention to come over and kick your ass. Even if they weren't rounding up every egg, the fleeing whelps would handle it for them at this point. Also! The new whelps hatched would be nowhere near the tank and probably just start running straight to the nearest healer to eat them.

And finally, divine intervention! Surely God could save this raid, right? Well, no, not exactly. Divine intervention does make you completely immune to damage for 3 minutes!!! It also... unfortunately.... means you can't cast spells... or even move... that whole time....

You can actually hear them commenting on this once everyone rushes in, you can hear a couple voices saying "I can't move/I can't cast anything!", implying that these characters were unaware of this drawback.

So to sum it up, the plan was: pull way too many monsters, fear them out of AoE spells and into other monsters, kill our paladins (oh yeah the person who casts divine intervention dies upon casting it btw), and freeze our mages so they can't participate.

Honestly, these guys are pretty lucky Leeroy was there to take the fall for this one.

So yeah. The video wasn't supposed to be a "look at this dumb idiot", it was a "come join our group of dumb idiots".

((and I did mention it earlier but yes, the entire video was scripted to be used as a recruiting advertisement for their guild, so all of this WAS an intentional part of the joke. Personally, I'm a fan of it. What a way to show "hey we're a guild with a sense of humor and can take a joke about being terrible at the game while still making progress"))

The Clone Wars 1x20 'Innocents of Ryloth' Reaction

Waxer and Boil were the OG Space Dads.

omg their whole story line with Numa was just, my heart my emotions I am a puddle on the floor

Especially when she hugged them and we got to see so much of their character and personalities in the way they responded. They were both so wary and surprised and then Waxer was all soft and comforting and Boil with his hilarious little 'there there' pats. It was the clone version of 'Yes I read the manual on how to comfort civilian children, I totally know what I'm doing, stop laughing Waxer.'

Speaking of Waxer, his concern and care, particularly in his facial expressions, were just aaaaaaaaah. Wrap me up in them and I will be comforted forever more.

(Yes I know what happens on Umbara shhhhhhh let me enjoy my meager scrap of happiness for now).

And at the end of the episode when they asked Obi-Wan why Numa kept calling them 'Nerra' and he told them it meant brother I just wanted to hurl myself off the balcony. It was an actual squee moment. It was like a tiny scrap of long lost young nerd me surfaced and in that moment it was just pure fan girl joy. Plus Obi-Wan knew, the sneaky little ginger shit (affectionate). You could see the little amused expression on his face as soon as Waxer and Boil asked him.

Is this the first time we see Ghost Company? I think it is? If so, then good excellent, hello Ghost Company, more of and about you please.

I think this is the first time we see Cody hand Obi-Wan's lightsaber back to him as well. Even though I could've sworn we saw a flash of it ignited when he leapt over the beasts once they were trapped behind the stone bridge that Ghost Company shot down but eh, who needs continuity if it means we get more moments of Cody giving Obi-Wan his lightsaber back. I can just hear the exasperated "Sir you dropped this again".

I watched 1x18 and 1x19 before this episode and while they were enjoyable, there was just something about this episode. I haven't even made it through the first season and already I just want more clone episodes. The 'jedi go on adventures around the galaxy' episodes are fun but just give me everything about the clones. There's just something about the clones that hits different.

[dragon-business]

(guess who picked the last option :'D it was very embarrassing, but also awesome)

So, the Fighter quests left us with the distinct impression that Kiryu had a cute lil crush on Fighter that Kiryu himself was  only half aware of.

I mean – older sempai, that inspires people and is connected to Kiryu's awesome hobby and is super good at it, too? Wow.

So he tries to help Fighter in any way he can, and to spend time with him, and do nice things for him.

Like taking Fighter to high end restaurants and places, at first. But Fighter is -Very uncomfortable with not being able to pay for himself, and with Kiryu (who's rolling in cash from his real estate business) having to spend so much on him. -Totally oblivious to Kiryus' feelings and vaguely romantic gestures towards him.

(Kiryu suffers, completely unaware that right at the same time he's pulling a Fighter on Tachibana) (This is beautiful)

Intermission There's an easter egg sidestory where a fortune teller predicts, amongst other things, that Kiryu will have 9 kids. And, amazingly, he really takes it seriously. I cannot even express how delighted it makes us feel. He's such a responsible young man, concerned for his future kids' future.

Back to Fighter Kiryu rests from the stress of his real estate business at pocket circuit center, visiting Fighter is healing.

Fighter: so how is your business been going? Kiryu: …… …. ... .. . .fine, I guess.

Meanwhile in his head: gotta get more fish, oiled women, Nishikis' life is in danger, fish, gotta buy that massage parlor back, baby ferrets, Sachiko is filled a bunch of complaints but refuses to give them all at once, requesting to meet me, more fish, shadow kings of Kamurocho, Odas' cologne, more fish, Odas' everything, 9 kids, need to make enough money to support the family hURRY KIRYU-

Fighter: wait, what family? Kiryu: hard to explain, but I need more money now *proceeds to race with a little girl*

But what is there to explain even. He's gonna have a Big Family. He's just gonna.

Kiryu doesn't even know when he makes Fighter's heat doki. What a dependable young man with great family values.

Bentos Imagine if Fighter will start making Kiryu lunches. Like, after Kiryu buys the track. First, he defeats the hotel district king or something. Next on the agenda - raising Fighter's pay. This district needs a community center for kids. Desperately.

And Kiryu is going to shower Fighter with money while he's at it. The man's too embarrassed to get taken out for dinners? Because he doesn't have money? Well Kiryu is going the long route. Fixing the root of the issue.

K: don't worry, sempai, you can pay for your dinners yourself from now on 😌 F: …it's still your money, though. But shhhhhhh. He worked for it. Kiryu's just doing what's beneficial for the kids.

So yeah. Fighter is gonna bring Kiryu meals. Maybe even to work? Or, when they can, they go to eat on the playground as always. Anyways, Kiryu brings homemade bentos with tofu to work.

Marina: 👀👀👀👀 Grandpa: 😪

And Wait till Nishiki hears of this. There are little sausage octopi in the bentos! 

Nishiki can come in posing as a client to get the glimpse of bentos source. But, really, he can get even more info, if he goes straight for the role of concerned older brother.

See, he just worries about what people his brother associates with in this dangerous world of business. So worries. Nowadays people are drawn to him and, uhm, seek out his company… for nefarious reasons! He's so rich, but so young (single tear.gif) with heart too big for these cramped streets filled with rats 😔

(Nishiki and Marina should totally become gossip friends)

*cracks knuckles*

So royalty au. From the prequel we know that this is a story about Sam picking an heir and the whole inheritance that is going to get very complicated because he has no children thing. We know Niki and Quackity are options. (There might be more people, but shhhhhhh). Phil is Sam’s advisor and Wilbur is his son. Niki is Wilbur’s best friend. And from the snippet and other Bee-comments we know the tntduo will be tntduoing.

From the snippets we know there will be an announcement. This is assumed in Niki’s and probably confirmed in Quackity’s. (Also, this castle is a gossip house, as it should be.) the logical assumption would be that this is going to be Sam announcing who will be his heir. Though just doing it at dinner feels to informal, so maybe he’s just going to announce when he’s going to announce it. (Or he’s bringing in a completely different person as another possible or chosen heir, who knows there are OPTIONS.)

Anyway, some of my speculations in no particular order:

It is the heir announcement and Phil knows who it’s going to be but he’s not telling Wilbur because it’s going to be Niki and he doesn’t trust him to not tell her yet. (Rumours would spread very quickly if there is to be a big announcement and suddenly Niki is very cheerful.)

Same as above, but it’s NOT Niki. Same Wilbur cannot be trusted to keep this info from Niki. Or a potential, not wanting Wilbur to have to lie to Niki when he knows. (Same possibility for rumours spreading based on any change in Niki’s behaviour.)

It may or may not be the heir announcement, but it’s important and clearly Wilbur is getting pressed for info from all sides, so Phil might just not want him to spill in general rather than just to Niki in particular.

Phil is still planing to tell Wilbur about the announcement, he might have only heard about it from Sam after breakfast, or he wants limit the time between Wilbur knowing and it happening to avoid a leak. (I’d assume he’d want Wilbur to have a guarded reaction to the news, and knowing what he’s about to hear would make that a lot easier.)

Phil wants to see Wilbur’s raw reaction to the announcement to know his opinion (I’d assume he could just ask this, but you never know with the complicated Sandduo.)

It’s just any regular or normal announcement and the palace it’s getting turned upside down for nothing, which is why Wilbur wasn’t told (unlikely because it’s the first chapter so something needs to be set up).

And lastly: surprise heir, because I have no idea where Tommy is going to come in and I would not be surprised to have him suddenly thrown in as heir out of nowhere which would force Wilbur to work with/befriend him which Niki could see as a betrayal. (Also, many options to make people hate Tommy’s guts.)

Personally I don’t know who I’d like to be the heir, but if it is the heir announcement then I’m very excited to find out why Phil didn’t tell Wilbur as well as seeing the fallout between all the other characters. I mainly want to see what would happen to rainduo’s dynamic depending on who gets pick because both sides of the coin will be fun.

god I love seeing your analysis for this already

oh the castle is SUCH a gossip house because what else did nobles living in the palace with the royals have to do back then. word spreads so fast if you're not careful

like I said before I can't respond to most of this, but just so you know spruce I am eyeing some of these so closely. it's so fun to see your thoughts already.

guess you'll have to wait for the first chapter to find out what the announcement is :)

(tysm for this spruce it's just making me even more excited to eventually post this)

Lunchables and Familiarity

*Nathan the Nobody and Candy Pop are sitting on Candy Pop's bed, recovering from a little game they liked to play called: How long can we kiss without passing out?...with Candy Pop winning as usual*

*after a few more deep breaths, Nathan looks over at Candy Pop*

Nathan: you want to come with me to get a lunchable?

Candy Pop:....what in the 7 deadly sins is a lunchable?

Nathan:.......what did you just say?

Candy Pop: what's a lunchale-

Nathan: you poor, neglected, demon possesed-fairy-angel-blue jolly rancher....you have never tasted a Lunchable?

Candy Pop: no....I haven't....

Nathan: *picks candy up* come with me then, blue raspberry goblin, we shall find you the best Lunchables we can....and some babybel cheese on the side!

Candy Pop: *finding this wildly funny* alright then?

*Nathan carries Candy Pop on his back, taking him to the nearest exit of Jason's little pocket universe....he puts Candy Pop down about 3 minutes later cause he's having trouble keeping his balance with the unruly and excited genyr on his back*

*eventually Nathan finds the exit and Walks out with Candy Pop into an alley way, seeing a walmart sign about 5 minutes away from them*

Nathan: *putting away his mask and tying his hair up into a man bun* alright...if anyone asks, Candy Pop, you are a cosplayer and I am your roommate.

Candy Pop: but you're my boyfriend-

Nathan: *putting a finger to the small jester's lips* SHHHHHHH. we will devote ourselves to the role.

Nathan: NOW, we shall go...*he walks with Candy Pop to the walmart*

*Once they are inside, Candy Pop looks around excitedly...practically bouncing up and down, even though Candy Pop had gone to Walmart with Nathan a few times before, he always found it all quite invigorating considering where he was from, they had nothing like this*

*Nathan walked toward the cheese and lunch meat isle and pointed at the lunchables*

Nathan: the ambrosia and nectar of humans......✨Lunchables✨

Candy Pop: you've been hanging out with Papa Grande...haven't you?

Nathan:...........hush you glitter force-glitter diamond lookalike.

*candy Pop laughs at this and just grabs a lunchable*

Candy Pop: alright we got the- *GASP*

Nathan: huh?

Candy Pop: *pointing at the refrigerators* red bull!

Nathan: Candy...if i buy that for you...Jason will KILL me....you understand that...right?

Candy Pop: small price to pay for your boyfriend's happiness~

Nathan:.....you're lucky i'm feeling extra good today.

*Nathan gets a red bull for candy pop and walks with him to the cashier*

Cashier: that'll be 14.59...

Nathan: *raises an eyebrow* hm...that's...more...than usual...

Cashier: *shrugs and takes the money from Nathan and gives them the stuff they bought*

Nathan: *mumbles* thanks...

*Candy Pop kept his eyes on the cashier...something felt....off*

Cashier: *looks at Candy with an odd grin....a grin Candy Pop had seen in the past but couldn't quite put his finger on* so...you're a cosplayer? what- or WHO are you cosplaying?

Candy Pop: *cautious* well....i'm cosplaying-

Cashier: wait....let me guess. a genyr?

Candy Pop: *eyes widening* how did you-

Nathan: *already at the exit* Candy! c'mon! Jason's gonna get worried if we're gone for too long!

Candy Pop: c-coming...*he heads towards Nathan...thinking about the odd interaction he just had...how on earth did that cashier know Candy Pop was a genyr...Genyrs were not something humans knew about...Genyrs were often mixed up with Angels...but that cashier had guessed perfectly...it wasn't normal*

*Nathan and Candy Pop head home and enjoy their red bull and lunchables*

*after they finish, they both get ready for bed, Candy Pop practically vibrating from the red bull...they walk to Jason's room and lay down all together, Candy Pop in the middle of the 6'0" goth and the 6'4" Toymaker*

Jason: *looking down at Candy Pop* why....why on Earth are you so shaky?

Nathan: *giving Candy a look that says: tell him and you wont be able to walk for a week.*

Candy Pop: *simply smiles at Nathan and turns to Jason* Nathan bought me a Red bull.

Nathan: YOU LITTLE SNITCH-

Jason: *sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose* i'm too tired to lecture you at this point...just don't do it again.

Nathan: *squints* hm...alright....fine...

Candy Pop: *simply chuckles and drifts to sleep*

*the throuple falls asleep peacefully*

................................................

Cashier: *walking into the back of Walmart snickering*

???: what's so funny?

Cashier: *slowly morphing* you wouldn't believe what I saw....

???: what?

*the cashier has now completely morphed*

Morivin: I got to see our dear older brother.

Drolsoir: he was here?

Morivin: yes...posing as a cosplayer with this...HIPPIE he was with

Drolsoir: ah...do you think we could use this?

Morivin: i believe we can younger brother....we will use our brother's relationship with that hipster people call a man to draw him in....and kill Night Terrors.

Drolsoir: lovely....

.....................................

*candy pop sits up, waking in a cold sweat*

Candy Pop: no....no no no....

Night Terrors: what is it?

Candy Pop: *grits his teeth* Morivin.....that cashier....it was Morivin....

Night Terrors: *Malice and cruelty in his voice* oh my~ quite the development we have.....

*Candy Pop closes his eyes in regret.....remembering the danger this could put him in....the danger this could put Jason and Nathan in*

Candy Pop: *breathes out* very well....I will simply have to be more careful...

*he lays down, pretending like everything is ok....just as he always does...*

........................
