💫Star crossed lovers💫
—incorrect quotes
~with additional links in the mix
I enjoyed this one, way to start the morning with giggles 🤭
I edited some of it too ^^
Thank you for the tag twinnie @darialovesstuff 💜
Tumblr media
Krysta: Well, Fujin and I finally did it!
The rest of the squad: *gasps, shocked expressions, etc.*
Krysta: That's right... We kissed!
Krysta: You know my motto: carpe diem, carpe noctem, carpe coles.
Fujin: Seize the day, seize the night, what’s the last one?
Krysta: Seize the dick.
Fujin: When you said 'Magic in Bed', I wasn't expecting this...
Krysta: *pulls out card from deck* Now, was this your card?
Fujin: Holy--
Fujin: I fell—
Krysta: From heaven?
Fujin: No, I literally fell—
Krysta: In love with me the moment you saw me?
Fujin: MY ARM IS BROKEN!
Krysta: Okay, but do you think I'm pretty? Be honest.
Krysta: Look, last night was a mistake.
Fujin: A sexy mistake.
Krysta: No, just a regular mistake.
Fujin: As top in this relationship, I think we should-
Krysta: I can't believe you're pulling rank on me.
Krysta: Fujin, you do remember when we agreed we were better off as friends, right?
Fujin, naked in Krysta's bed: No, I absolutely do not.
Krysta, already taking off their clothes: Fuck... Me neither.
Fujin, sweating: Krysta, there’s something I need to ask you-
Krysta: Finally! You’re proposing!
Fujin: How’d you know?
Krysta: Fujin, you’ve dropped the ring five times during dinner.
Krysta: I even picked it up once.
Krysta: I like your new pants!
Fujin: Thanks, they were 50 off!
Krysta: I’d like them better if they were 100 off. *winks*
Fujin: The store can’t just give away clothes for free.
Krysta: Thats’s… not what I meant.
Fujin: That’s a terrible way to run a business, Krysta.
*Krysta and Fujin are in Paris.*
Krysta: I'm...moved. I...I don't know what it is I'm feeling right now. I feel...destiny?
Fujin: But...
Krysta: I don't know what it is. I feel like... I just never thought I'd see it with my own two eyes. And here it is. It's just there. It's right in front of me, and...
Fujin: This is what you wanted to see? The bridge from Inception?
Krysta: Yeah.
Fujin: But the Eiffel Tower is behind us, babe.
Krysta: Yeah, but this is the bridge FROM INCEPTION.
Fujin: Okay, alright.
Krysta: Sorry I’m late, I was doing things.
Fujin: Hi, I’m ‘things’.
Krysta: Can you cut me some slack, Fujin? I’m sort of in love.
Fujin: I’m sorry, but that’s really not my problem.
Krysta: I’m in love with you.
Fujin: *blushes* Oh. That brings me in the loop a little.
Fujin: I’m in love with you.
Krysta: We called off the prank war last night at midnight, dork.
Fujin: I know.
Krysta: Ah. Okay. Um. Cool. Neat. Very cool. Cool. Cool. Coolcoolcool-
Fujin: We should get you to a doctor for a check up immediately. What if it happens again, and there isn’t anyone around to help you? What if it’s congenital? Oh my God! Was it me? Did I hurt you?
Krysta: …You realize any other person that made their partner pass out on bed would simply feel really proud of themselves, right?
Fujin: You have to apologize to Raiden, Krysta.
Krysta: Fine! But I must warn you that this might make me a better, nicer person and that is NOT the person you fell in love with!
Krysta: Fujin and I are no longer friends.
Fujin: KRYSTA THAT IS THE WORST WAY TO TELL PEOPLE THAT WE’RE DATING!
Fujin: There are 20 letters in the alphabet, right?
Krysta: Nope, there's 26.
Fujin: Ah, I must have forgotten U, R, A, Q, T.
Krysta: Aww, that's cute, but you're still missing one.
Fujin: You'll get the D later ;)
Fujin: You look good in that hoodie.
Krysta: You know where else I'd look good?
Fujin, zero hesitation: My bed.
Krysta, at the same time: By your side- wait, what?
Krysta: I’m proud to identify as morosexual. I’m attracted to dumbasses and dumbasses exclusively. Someone asked me what the Spanish word for "tortilla" was once, and now I dream of kissing them under the moonlight.
Fujin: What kind of animal is the Pink Panther?
Krysta, already taking off their clothes: God, Fujin, you’re so fucking stupid.
Krysta: Come to dinner tonight. I can’t cook, but I’ll bring plenty of free wine.
Fujin: Marry me.
Krysta: I am so cool. I am an absolute Chad. I am the epitome of coolness and awesomeness—
Fujin: Hi.
Krysta: *melts down in a flustered heap of softness*
Krysta: Hey, about that love letter you sent me-
Fujin: *blushes* What are your thoughts?
Krysta: The fourth sentence-
Fujin: Yeah, that’s where I got really emotional and I-
Krysta: It’s “you’re” not “your”.
Fujin: Krysta, you love me, right?
Krysta: Normally I’d say yes without hesitation, but I feel like this is going somewhere I won’t like.
Fujin: I have feelings for you.
Krysta: Why? What's wrong with you? Are you sure you're okay?
Fujin: Crushes are the worst. Whenever I’m near mine, I start acting stupid.
Krysta: You always act stupid.
Krysta:
Krysta: Wait...
*Krysta is crying after a breakup*
Fujin: There there, Krysta.
Krysta, still crying: Thanks, but how did you get into my room?
Fujin: Great question—
*At a speed dating event*
Krysta: Oh wow, people are really shallow.
Fujin: Consider it a background check. For example: Do you have a death certificate?
Krysta: *Checks their pulse* Sorry, not yet.
Fujin: Good, I'm not fucking a ghost again.
Links:
Travis: I was going to suggest we do Marilyn Monroe and JFK roleplay, but I’d get way too into it.
Krysta: What- how?
Travis: You’d be like “come to bed … Mr. President” and I’d be like, “I need to increase the amount of American military advisors in South Vietnam by a factor of 18.”
Rain: Pros and cons of dating me.
Krysta: Pros first.
Rain: Pros. You'll be the cute one.
Krysta: *nods* and cons?
Rain: Cons. Holy shit, where do I begin-
Kuai liang: My hands are cold.
Krysta: Here, let me hold them.
Kuai liang: My lips are cold too.
Krysta: *covers Kuai liang’s mouth with their hand*
Krysta: What are you in the mood for?
Rain: World domination.
Krysta: That's a bit ambitious.
Rain: You are my world.
Krysta: Aww...
Rain:
Krysta:
Krysta: OH.
Krysta: Hey, I’m getting in the shower. Wanna help me out?
Tomas: ...Have you never taken a shower before?
Krysta: Hey, wanna take a shower with me?
Travis: I have a gun in that nightstand beside the bed. If I ever say no to that question, I want you to take it out and shot me because I’ve obviously gone crazy.
Krysta: Can I have 2 straws with that milkshake?
Hotaru: *ear blush* thinks “she wants to share it with me”
Krysta: With 2 straws, I can drink it double as fast!
Tomas: Wow, Krysta, you want to hold my hand before marriage? How awfully lewd of you.
Krysta: We literally slept together yesterday.
Tomas: That's NOTHING compared to the lewdness of holding hands.
Krysta: Know why I called you in here?
Travis: Because I accidentally sent you a dick pic.
Krysta: *Stops pouring two glasses of wine.* Accidentally?
Krysta: The first time I saw you, you stole my heart.
Tomas: But I'm a kleptomaniac, so that doesn't mean anything.
Krysta: I don't need to go to bed. I'm not tired, I'll be fine.
Hanzo: But, darling, I'll be so lonely without you. Come curl up in my arms so I can feel whole again.
Krysta: O-oh. Well. Are you trying to seduce me into healthy sleeping patterns??
Hanzo: Is it working?
Krysta: I want to wake up with you every day for the rest of our lives.
Kung lao: I wake up at 4:30 AM every day to train.
Krysta: I want to see you at some point every day for the rest of our lives.

Part 2 of trio confession of MC x Felix x Rime. Again, I tried my best to interpret. Yes, it will be cringe. Please, be ready to grab a snack and a drink of any kind. Have a wonderful day!
MC, Rime, and Felix gawk at one another for a full minute. Heartbeats beat rapidly a mile per minute, the anticipation of uncertainty is overwhelming for the next words to break the sudden silence.  
MC by reflex squeezes their hands together while stuttering to say something to one of them at least. 
Rime's gaze hits the floor under the pressure of guilt gnawing his tortured soul. 
Felix's painted black ombre fingernails bite tiny crests into his sweaty palms. 
No one is ready to jump over THAT line. Out of pure fear. Anxiety holds the three people from pushing boundaries. Unspeakable truths to be hidden by a fake smile and heartbreak. 
A sweet honey, suckle voice pushes on with apprehension, "L-listen...I think...I had hoped to consider a new level of trust between….," MC sucks in a tiny breath. "You know, the two of you have impacted my life in the most chaotic, nefarious ways feasible to the extent...I-we should," MC bounces on their heels to maintain their nerves and courage for their proposal. 
Until a silky smooth tone whispers, "I had hoped to see, as well as, where we all stand. For the most part." Felix holds his silver gaze upon them with sweet sincerity, it pumps blood into MC and Rime's cheeks. (Boy is too good for this world.)
"Neither would I be against the notion of….US…the Three of us being able to spend more quality time together. In short, you two don't feel obligated to answer now. Unless...we-I...I've never done this before...so, I have no idea how to go about this in general," Rime hums with a husky shaky speech.
The three individuals blink slowly at each other.
MC chimes with a flustered expression dimples popping out, "Then it would be in mine and hopefully you two's promising graces to be in a courtship with me. If that's what you guys were implying...I l-like..love you two both deeply with all my heart. You can think about it just-just please let me be apart of your two's world. And I'll do my absolute best to make you two smile at least once everyday."  Time and Felix turn to each other smiling wide when the two grab MC's wrist pulling them into their giant bear hug. 
Threading their fingers through Felix's brownish fluff and clutching Rime's chest MC let's out a sigh, their tensed shoulders falling. They decide to speak up, "We should agree on Seven things firsthand to keep the relationship safe and dependable." The two men nod their heads in unison. "Okay...um-first requirement..is to learn to have trust." MC quakes under their soft gazes. If we have trouble telling the truth, then one of us at the end of the day can share at least one truth, they're comfortable with telling the other two. And then the other two will do the same. So, we keep a balance of validity." 
The second thing should be…, MC waits for the boy's say in the matter. "And feel free to jump in to add any conditions you two think is necessary too," the boys start to speak on their thoughts as well. 
Rime wiggles his nose, "The second will be the whole group needs to be hyper-aware of the other's behaviors or attitudes. No one should feel like a third-wheel. Yes, we are allowed to feel jealous. Although, with each other or in pairs the entire party needs to be informed of planned activities for the entire week." 
Felix and MC nod along. Felix scratches his head with a squint in his eyes, "The third and fourth have to focus on every relationship we have with each other, is distinctive in their own manners. While date night is a Must to retain an acceptable appreciation for the entire group's devotion to our unbreakable bonds." 
MC giggles and rime rolls his eyes but is admiring Felix's dopey lovesick look into the future he's building in his head with his two new lovers! Partners! Soul mates!
Something pops into MC's mind, "Sexy time has to be based on consent, safety, and respect. That's the fifth rule."
This makes the trio rosiness bloom and nod feverishly. 
Rime's ears twitch in a frenzy, "If we happen... hear me out...tell anyone about our relationship we need to be united on where we stand even if we disagree on some things in future conversations. Or debates. He holds up six fingers. 
The three stand in silence. Then a candle lights up. In unison they shout, "And seven is to tell each other "I Love You" at least three times every day for the morning, afternoon, and night." All of them cackle like wild boars till their stomachs hurt. What a way to share a single brain cell. 
The three end up falling asleep on the couch with open books and wine bottles surrounding them. And huddled together as Stella purs looking upon their slumbering figures.
She blinks and jumps up on MC's lap and settles into a quiet slumber too. Simply, perfect.

Chapter Ten
Flower Girl
Pairing: Kageyama x Fem!Reader
previous | i don't fall in love
A few months later you arrive at your destination in Kageyama's car. He steps out first as he's done ever since your first date and walks around the car to open the door for you. This time, you smile as he takes your hand and thank him.
"Your hand feels heavier today for some reason," he hums.
"That's strange, I wonder why," you smile back.
"I've got absolutely no clue at all."
You intertwine your fingers with his as you approach Himari and Hinata's front door. With a smile, Misaki opens it and gasps when she sees the two of you. She throws her arms around you and hugs you tight.
"I missed you, Y/N!" she giggles as she squeezes you with more strength than a kid her age should have.
"I picked you up from school yesterday," you laugh at her dramaticism.
"Exactly! It's been too long," she whines.
When she pulls away from you her eyes catch on your hand. Her eyebrows knit together as she beings to realize what's going on. "Wait a second..." she murmurs to herself. You and Kageyama smile at each other as she suddenly grabs your hand and holds it closer to her face.
"YOU'RE MARRIED?!" she screams louder than you've ever heard her. "I thought you said you didn't fall in love," she then teases with her free hand positioned on her hip.
Just then you hear something break within the house and in less than a minute Hinata and Himari are standing right behind their daughter at the door.
"I didn't think I'd fall in love either but here we are," you smile. "Tobio proposed last night at dinner."
Misaki is now jumping up and down in excitement screaming about how proud she is of Uncle Tobio.
"Come inside," Himari says, stumbling over her words as she's too shocked to use full sentences.
When you walk inside you sit down on the couch beside Kageyama. Hinata looks absolutely speechless as he stares at his best friend and Himari is still at a loss for words.
"Stop doing that," Kageyama finally cracks under the pressure. "It's creepy!"
"I'm sorry," Hinata apologizes as he wipes his eyes. "I'm just so proud of you."
Kageyama rolls his eyes. "I'm not going to ask you what we came here for if you act like this..."
Hinata and Himari sit up perfectly straight and silent, acting the most put together you've ever seen them in your entire life. Himari scoots a bit towards the edge of her seat and smiles politely as she clears her throat.
"What did the two of you come here to ask us?" he calmly inquires.
You and Kageyama exchange a look before admitting the true nature of your visit. "Well," you begin. "We are getting married and we'd like the two of you to be our best man and maid of honor," you smile.
They both jump up from their seats at the same time and tackle the two of you against the sofa with a big hug until both of you complain.
"Woah, woah, woah," Misaki interrupts with her arms crossed. "That's all What about me? Am I even invited?"
You grin at the adorable little girl. "There's a job Uncle Tobio has for you if you think you're up for it," you tease.
Misaki stands straight up with her hands at her sides and looks at Kageyama with a serious expression. "You can ask me anything, Uncle Tobio," she nods.
"Well alright then..." he begins. "Would you like to be our flower girl?"
Misaki squeals as she jumps into Kageyama's arms. "Yes, yes, yes!" she shrieks as she hugs the life out of him. However, this time he doesn't complain about the embrace.
"Oh you both must stay for a celebratory meal before you go," Himari then insists, to which you and Kageyama happily agree.
Then, after you say your goodbyes and leave, Kageyama once more opens the car door for you.
"We really do owe them," you smile as you take your seat and fiddle with the rock on your left hand. "I didn't think I'd ever get to this point in my life."
"Well too bad because you're stuck with me now," he teases.
"Maybe that's not such a terrible thing, I'm not sure yet," you giggle.
Kageyama kisses you on the cheek and walks around to the other side of the car. As you're left alone you open your phone and see that your ex has texted you from yet another new account. You groan as your fiancée steps into the car.
"What's going on?" he asks. "Upset to see me so soon?"
"No," you reply, ignoring his joke. "My ex just sent me a lovely photo of him and asked if I'm free this evening."
"You're welcome to go but that might be considered cheating, Y/N," he smiles. "Though I'd rather you spend the evening with me instead."
"I'd rather be with you any day of the week," you smile as you turn off your phone. "Ready to go home?"
"As you wish."

So what are your thoughts on s2 of love is blind? And what are we all gonna have to do to convince you to watch too hot to handle?
ANON!
I have watched Too Hot to Handle! I watched season 1 with Chloe, aka my fave from the Circle as well. (I thought I had posts about it, but Tumblr is terrible and nothing really comes up in my searches so who knows)
As for Love is Blind, I'll put my thoughts under the cut cause it's gonna be long.
We'll start by saying I didn't watch season 1, I jumped straight into season 2 cause I NEEDED to see what was up with the guy I kept seeing all over TikTok
Tumblr media
So my thoughts:
GENERAL SHOW STUFF:
-the pacing was wild. I did not expect the "blind" part to be less than a third of the season. The fact that a proposal happened in the first episode THREW me.
-I get why they have a show past the pods, but I sort of hated it. It felt a lot like Bachelor hometowns, which are always my least favorite episodes. And I feel like I just simply don't care about watching these people go through regular relationship drama. I don't watch reality tv for that, it's why I don't watch like... I guess 90 day fiancee is the closest?
-I disliked every couple except Iyanna & Jarrette.
Tumblr media
(I just love them. UGH)
-the fact that actual marriage is a thing makes me very uncomfortable. They have to have some sort of cash incentive to actually get married, right? Otherwise, why wouldn't you just choose to not get married and then keep dating once the show is over?? I haven't dug into this. Like on the bachelor, they get "engaged" but at this point it's essentially agreeing to date and getting a free ring out of it.
SPECIFIC PEOPLE/COUPLES:
-again, Iyanna and Jarrette were the only ones who felt like a real couple who actually liked each other
-Mal & Sal: Sal was boring and I swear if he ever tried to sing to me I'd smash his ukelele. Also, I just don't think Mal was into him at all but felt like she should be (again, cash incentive???)
-Danielle & Nick: YIKES. I'm trying to keep an open mind because it sounds like Danielle has a lot of anxiety & depression and some traumas she didn't share on the show, but holy shit. She picked a fight in every single scene and half the time it felt like it was pulled out of thin air. Even Nick seemed baffled by half of it. And I feel bad for her cause she admits that she projects her anxiety onto others and apparently some of it was edited weird, but still. Her getting mad at him for him being like "can you and your friends not dance on & break my table" was WILD. I don't think they should have gotten married AT ALL. Maybe dated & gone to couples therapy like they are post show, but don't get married! (again, CASH INCENTIVE???)
-Shayne & Natalie: oof. Shayne scares me tbh. He seems to have some really terrible self esteem (he literally cannot handle anytime Natalie jokes around about him, even in the slightest) and he seems to have an explosive temper. We didn't see their night before the wedding fight, but we did see him when he couldn't hit a baseball and he got absolutely furious and started shitting on Sal for wearing dress shoes?? Also he gaslit Natalie pretty hard in the pods by telling her it would be "weird" if she got upset when he thought she was Shaina.
-speaking of. Shaina & Kyle: Shaina sucks. I think she agreed to the proposal because of the cash incentive I've now convinced myself exists, even though she knew they wouldn't make it and she was clearly not attracted to him. BUT I also sort of think Kyle is... I dunno, how do you say you believe in science but want to marry a woman who doesn't believe in evolution? That's who you want raising your kids?? And he just keeps pursuing her even after she straight up ditched him in Mexico. Take a hint, my dude.
-Deepti & Shake: what can be said that hasn't already been said? I think Shake was faking every single thing. I think he wanted to be on TV (and the cash incentive) and used Deepti to do it. I think his whole "she's like an aunt" rhetoric was his get out of jail free card. Deepti is a queen and her leaving him at the altar was incredible and I love her. AND SO PRETTY. not sexually attracted to her my ass. I do think Shake was so upset she dumped him first lmao
Anyway, that's all I can remember of my thoughts for right now.

I'm Cold (Lee Donghyuck x Reader)
"I'm cold"
"And?"
"Can't you give me your jacket or something?"
"Can't you accept my proposal and marry me already?"
In which Prince Donghyuck's parents are forcing him to get married and he decided to propose to the first girl he sees to shut his parents up
Genre: Prince!Lee Donghyuck x Maid!Reader, Angst, Fluff, Arranged Marriage (kinda), Slowburn
Warnings: Curse words, Suggestive (I'll add more if there are)
Word Count: 2.6k
Notes: Chapter 2 of Im Cold. Dont be shy and drop and ask, I love answering them hehe
Prev / Chapter 2 / Next
Tumblr media
"And she said No" Donghyuck huffed taking a swig of his alcohol, while the boy opposite him started laughing at the story, "Don't," he says pointing a finger at him "Don't laugh at me, Mark Lee"
He snorts and takes a sip of his drink before replying "Well you deserved it, did you think she'll agree?" he pints out and sighs, running his fingers through his hair "You're fortunate enough that she didn't refuse your advances in front of everyone"
Donghyuck groaned and glared at Mark "You're supposed to be on my side"
"I'm on nobody's side"
"What a lucky bitch nobody must be"
"Think about it, other than the maid of the royal family, she has a life of her own, with people she adores and people who adore her right back," he points at Prince Donghyuck's chest "You suddenly pulling that stunt, is only making it harder for her, so be a little bit more," he thinks of the right word "Sympathetic"
Hyuck nods, playing with the liquid in his glass as Mark stands up to leave "Don't leave me," Hyuck accuses "Stay here till the sun rises"
"And why should I do that?"
"Because if Jeno and Jaem find out they're going to yell at me, if Renjun finds out he'll laugh at me, Chenle and Jisung are underaged to drink and Lucas Hyung is talking to his Fiancé"
Mark raises an eyebrow unamused by the younger's words
"Y/n is asleep on my bed," he answers honestly this time, relenting to the older's stare "I told her to sleep there and made an excuse that my parents might walk in and wonder why she is asleep on the sofa, so I waited till she slept before leaving her there to rest, you know like a gentleman"
Mark hums and sits back down "And what do I have to do with this?"
"I can use you as an excuse as to why I'm not in the room"
"Ok," Mark rolls his eyes and nods "Then why ask me to come here at Eleven in the evening if you just wanted her to be alone in the bed?"
"She slept at Eleven!" He shot back "she was on her phone for two hours, giggling to herself, whoever she was talking to is making her all giddy"
"Maybe she has a boyfriend or talking to her friends how dumb their prince is," Mark added "that's why she wouldn't accept you, none the less, at least try to be a bit more considerate on how she is feeling"
Tumblr media
       "Morning" was the first thing Y/n heard when she woke up, don't get her wrong, she wakes up early cause of her job, but she also knows that the prince rises even earlier cause he loves the sunrise and when she opened her eyes that's where he was, by the window, letting the sun coat him in light making him glow, his black hair styled to perfection, his dress shirt wrapped snugly against his body, the tailor did a splendid job on this one, his trousers and unbuttoned blazer giving off a casual look. For a moment she sat there in awe, he was beautiful, absolutely breathtaking that it takes all her strength to look away "Go get ready, we're returning home after breakfast" he points at a dress beside the bed, that she hasn't noticed, and we have the prince to blame for that
The dress was a red, more pastel-like, giving off an innocent vibe, Off-shoulder vintage style is what she would describe it "What about that dress, Prince?"
"It's yours," He said and looked at her "If anyone  asks tell them I gave it as a gift to you on your birthday" she blushes and shakes her head, opening her mouth to speak if only he didn't cut her off "Gifts are meant to be accepted, love, so accept the dress, it's yours now"
Just as he spoke a maid entered the room bowing to the prince "Your Highness," She faces Y/n and immediately recognizes her, it was one of the new maids in Prince Donghyuck's Kingdom, She remembers to cause this girl was supposed to be under her wing "Milady"
Y/n gasps and looks at the girl in shock "Hana" She says and shakes her head
The prince walks towards Hana, petting her hair, "Speak casually to her, it's alright" He smiles and nods at the dress "Take care of her, see you in the dining hall my love" he says, taking her hand to kiss her knuckles and leaves the room
Y/n looks at the younger maid who looks at her in awe "Pardon me for my rudeness, Milady,"
"Y/n is fine"
She smiles "Lady Y/n, you of all people know how loved the prince is" she squeals excitedly "everyone in the palace were so excited with the news, so many girls envy you you know"
Y/n smiles softly "The prince and I aren't really dating" she replied and shook her head
"Milady please don't be so modest," She says and stood up to take the dress "wow such a pretty dress," she breathed "Where did you get this Milady?"
She sighs and stood up "The Prince gave it to me" she replies and Hana immediately assisted her "I'm ok, you don't have to help me"
She pouts "It is my job"
Tumblr media
       Entering the dining hall all dressed up in the dress is Y/n's first, she looks at Prince Donghyuck who smiles and nods as Prince Jaemin stands to greet the new incomer
"Y/n" he smiles and takes her hand to kiss her knuckles "You look lovely," HE praises "Is that from Hyuck?" A shy nod leaves her and Prince Jaemin smiles slyly at the boy who was watching him and the girl, Jaemin raised a hand and waved him off, Yes, I know she's your bride I won't do anything, it meant.
But in all honesty, Prince Donghyuck was just watching to see if Jaemin was about to do anything that isn't approved by Y/n, he was just worried. She hasn't even agreed to marry him yet.
Prince Jaemin squeezes Y/n's hand so she'll look at him "Don't be shy Y/n," he replies and a smile coats his features "I'm sure Hyuck told you to wear that cause he was excited the secret is out and he can spoil you"
Y/n's eyes widened opening her mouth to speak but Prince Jaemin spoke first "He said this was a gift on your anniversary" he said excitedly leading her to her seat beside Prince Donghyuck
Prince Lucas nodded "What did you get him Y/n?
She was about to reply only to be spoken over by Prince Donghyuck "Can you not?" he asked Prince Lucas, wrapping a protective arm around her waist, making her flinch as he leans down to whisper in her ear making it look like he was keeping her close "Don't say a word"
She obeyed
Tumblr media
       Arriving at the palace a little before noon she was greeted by Maids and butlers, ready to assist Prince Donghyuck in whatever he might need
He holds her hand, "follow me" he instructed and lead her through the palace and people, "mother says this is your room now" he informs and sits on the bed
"My prince" she quickly denies and shakes her head "I cannot accept, this is insane"
He laughs and shakes his head "The room is yours, get some rest, my parents took the liberty to fill your closet" he replies and stands up against the door, his hand on the door "Get some sleep, you must've been stressed" he opens the door and leaves
Y/n watches him leave still not done disagreeing with The Royal Families instructions, it wasn't fair, she and the prince aren't dating, they're not engaged, she doesn't deserve this
She sits down on the bed to open the drawer on the white vanity beside her and gasped, in it were different designs of accessories, she couldn't help but become completely enchanted, taking them one by one to examine them.
A beautiful (birthstone) ring was the first thing she saw, taking it and examining it, watching the intricate details swirl and curve around the ring. Next, she saw a pretty and plane necklace, it was a diamond gem, a choker sized necklace that if she wore the gem being pressed right between her collar. While holding the necklace she stands, going to the closet to see the overwhelming amount of dresses, taking them out to carefully inspect and admire them placing one after the other on the soft mattress of the bed, finding comfort on the cold floor right at the floor of the bed, she leans her head against the matress as she thinks, I have to tell them.
She sighs softly, this was all new and stressful and even if the gifts were beautiful, she feels guilty, these weren't for her  they were for Prince Donghyuck's Fiance, she frustratingly ran her fingers through her hair, and closed her eyes at the on coming headache
She didn't mean it, she only meant to close her eyes for a minute, to only rest for a couple of seconds, she didn't mean to be cooped up in the room for a two hour nap, she didn't mean to fall asleep still holding the necklace that when Prince Donghyuck entered to ask her if she wanted to accompany him only to see her asleep, she didn't mean for him to lift her and place her under the covers, she didn't mean for him to clean up the mess she made while she explored the room, she didn't even know it happened 'till she woke up
Opening her eyes and realizing that this wasn't where she fell asleep, she sat up in shock, what happened? who entered the room? Somebody cleaned up? She got cut from her thoughts when she noticed a letter on the vanity table from the prince herself
Dear Y/n,
I hope you didn't mind, I placed you on the bed, you'll get a stiff neck at the position you were on. Rest well, You deserved, the whole ordeal must've been stressful, I know you wanna talk to me, I have a free schedule later around 7 pm, eat dinner with me and lets talk
Lots of love,
Lee Donghyuck :)
Y/n's mouth drops open in shock, he was the one that placed her on the bed, did he clean to? please tell me the prince didn't clean up the mess she made. She stood up only to be greeted by Hana as she opens the door
"You're awake, Milady" She smiles and sorts through the closet before Y/n could even process what was happening "Prince Donghyuck has suggested this to be your outfit for the rest of the day Milady"
She blinks, "Um, no thank you, I'm ok with what I'm wearing" She says and moves to go out the door when Hana stops her
"Milady you can't be seen wearing the same thing twice," She reasons holding the dress up so she can see
Y/n examined the dress, it was simple more simple than the red vintage dress she was currently wearing, it was a long dress hat would reach her ankles, the material light and seemed light and cottony, sleeves reaching the wrists, and a cute bow by the collar. It was just a simple casual sundress that had its own belt, she nods and sighs "ok fine, I'll go change"
       She walks through the halls of the palace, going to the tea room, where Hana has informed her where Prince Donghyuck was. Upon arriving she realized that not only was Prince Donghyuck in the room so was the Queen and someone she hasn't seen a long time
"Donghyuck where is Y/n?" the queen asks and looks by the door, making Y/n hide behind the door, "Should we fetch someone to get her?"
Donghyuck was quick to shake his head and deny his mother's suggestion "She's probably asleep let her rest"
The boy she hasn't seen in years smiled happily at the conversation "Hyuck sounds like a caring fiancé its amusing" he laughs and teases Doghyuck with a sly grin "is she the one wearing blue by the door way?"
Y/n froze around the same time, Prince Donghyuck and the queen turn their heads to look "Y/n?" Donghyuck asks
Revealing herself, cheeks slightly tinted red at being caught she bows in greeting "I'm sorry," she replies looking down in embarrassment
Prince Donghyuck stands to hold her hand and land a kiss on her knuckles "Don't be, my love" he says and leads her to sit beside him with her still frozen from the nickname and the action,  "Did you sleep well?"
the boy from earlier giving her tea "I have honestly never seen Donghyuck so smitten," he teases and smiles at her "Nice to finally meet you, Lady Y/n"
She shakes her head and stands "No please, Lord Taeyong" she quickly denies "Don't address me by a title have no right over"
A smile lands on his lips "I like you" he says and pats Donghyuck's back "I approve if her, good job" he stands and bows "I'm afraid I shall keep you calling that Milady, it suits you" he winks and Donghyuck, gently pulls Y/n to sit down "Your Highness" Taeyong speaks to the Queen "After you, I think the two of them would like to have the room for themselves"
The queen giggled, nodding "Oh Taeyong, I was just about to suggest that, you're a lot like my brother in law has anyone ever told you that?"
"I'm afraid so, My Queen" he laughs "He is my father" was the last thing you could hear from the conversation before it faded away and into the hallway
Y/n wasn't paying attention to the Marquees or the Queen only to be focusing on the prince, his blazer long forgotten on the coat rack, but his simple french-cuffed-two-unbuttoned-buttons style was mesmerizing, she realized they have matching colored tops, she blushes slightly
"Are you still adamant about not marrying me?" he wakes her from her thoughts
She blinks then nods "Yes, this isn't meant for me, My Prince, this was for your Fiance and i can't take it"
He sighs and examines her "Two weeks"
"I'm sorry?"
"Give me two weeks of your time and after that I'll tell my mother myself"
"What? No, We have to tell her now"
"Listen, you said you don't want the royal family to suffer because I can't tell her I don't want tp get married yet, right?"
She bites her lip, not answering
"Right?"
"Yes" she whispers
"Then give me two weeks, to figure out a way to tell her how we broke up so you can be free and no one will ask why, and so I can use it as an excuse as to why I wont find a new bride anytime soon"
"What excuse, My Prince?"
"I'll be too busy trying to get over you to find one" he smiles and she tries her best to suppress the warmth of her cheeks at the sight
"That won't work"
"Better than the family getting ridiculed, so, will you give me two weeks my love?"

Oh, Catte, my beloved... The bracelet is so beautiful. Goodness, did I cry when I took it out of the envelope. It's almost as beautiful as you are, I love it so much! I'm never ever taking this off. Oh starlight I'm so happy, you may as well have just proposed! I love you so so much, thank you💜💜💜
I'm glad Cyno is doing well for himself these days! It's not really that complex of a spell, simple transmutation really, but I'm sure he didn't want to overwhelm you. He may not talk a lot but trust me; he cares. I should write him sometime, if only so the next time an emergency arises he won't think I only remember he exists when I need his help, hehe... I'm joking of course, he's not the kind of person to care. I do still owe him a favor though. Two, now that he's gone out of his way to teach my girlfriend magic, and specifically for helping you make me this wonderful present. Send along my thanks please, but please don't mention that I said I'd write him, just in case I somehow forget to. You know me, heh..
Also I'm a little surprised to hear that name again! Collei was quite the visitor when she was here a few years ago, it's a long story, and one I doubt very much she'd want me to tell. Suffice to say she and Amber are good friends, but I'm sure she already asked you about her as soon as you mentioned Mondstadt. I'm so relieved to hear she's safe, and studying medicine no less! Tell her I'm proud of her. She'll do great things in her life.
I must admit I'm slightly bothered to hear that so many scholars accosted my poor babygirl to ask if I'd return, I'm so sorry darling. If they give you any more trouble, oh I'll come visit alright. To dispense punishment(although I'd definitely grab some food on the way as we left). Speaking of food, that's so sweet of you to offer to learn the local cuisine just for me~ you're so thoughtful, it's one of the many many things I love about you. My reputation around the school is honestly the only accomplishment you'll find though sweetheart. I wasn't really all that social there, aside from talking to the professors and scholars. I couldn't afford to procrastinate if I wanted to learn everything I could. Funny, that sounds completely unlike me, now doesn't it~ Those lectures can be tiresome at first, did they provide you with the appropriate reading materials, or are you only listening? I still have my copy of the first semester alchemy textbook--it's only about 800 pages, but they're packed to the brim with knowledge. I still reference it sometimes.
Like I mentioned though, most of my time in Sumeru was spent at the Academy or at the local restaurants. If you wanted food recommendations, those I can provide, but unfortunately I won't be of much use otherwise. Sorry cutie~
[the next page of the letter is a list of local restaurants, many with recommended dishes written next to them. There's also a fair number of heart shapes and "I love you"s doodled around the edges of the paper]
I hope you'll try at least some of those and tell me what you think. The more you talk about it honestly, the more it's beginning to grow on me. I do want to go back and visit with you, my love. I miss it, even if I don't want to admit that. It would be so much fun to sight see with you, being able to just meander aimlessly through the city, not a care in the world, and with you by my side... That sounds amazing. I'd want nothing more. Perhaps for our honeymoon~? [the last sentence of the paragraph is crossed out with a single streak of ink cutting through it]
Your photos are all amazing, darling. I just wish I had as many to send you in return, but unfortunately I don't own a camera, nor can I afford to leave the library long enough to travel to Liyue and buy one. That being said, Albedo does have one, and he already took that first photo. Darling, I'm curious, and please, *please* say no if it would bother you even slightly. If I... Perhaps wanted to take some... Pictures, just for your enjoyment~ ...would you mind if I had Albedo continue to serve as the photographer? I want my baby to be thinking of me, especially since I'm not there to pleasure you myself~💜 again, PLEASE say no if you'd have any problem with that. Or I could ask Jean if that would be better. I just want to treat my princess to some candy~
That line is going to have me up all night, I swear. I do wish I was there for you in every sense, but goodness does my heart ache for you. I miss the way you taste so much, my precious little munchkin~ you're not going to sleep at all the first night you're back in my arms, I hope you know that. I'm going to edge you so hard you'll cry for me, hehe~ I'm a little peeved you didn't take notice of my comment about punishing you! There will be ropes involved when you return to me. Just the way you always like it, cutie~ tell me, how bad do you miss me? Miss my tongue you love so much~? Don't worry baby--you'll get everything you could ever want for when you come home. I can't wait to taste you~ goodness, excuse me a moment baby... I need to scratch an itch before I finish writing this letter, hehe...~
Okay, I'm back. That was quite the itch, it just kept coming back~ that picture you sent with this letter may have helped with that... Celestia, you're so so beautiful, my rose..~ I love you so much.
Where was I... Ah yes. I'm very glad you've been eating and sleeping properly. Such a good girl you always are~💜 and don't worry; I'm taking care of myself as well. I've been becoming more adjusted to the late nights lately, since your letters often arrive around this hour(it's 11:30 right now, although up until a page ago it had been 10:15, hehe...). I don't mind it at all, since you know I love to sleep in anyway. I love reading your letters sweetheart. They truly do carry your love across the distance. I'm so happy that you're my partner. I love you so so much. I reread your letters every day, they put such a smile on my face.
Also, what's this about ideas you're having ever since I mentioned the uniform? Tell me!! Pretty please~? 💜
I'm going to call my letter to a close here, before I end up needing a bigger envelope, hehe~ I love you so much, starlight. Please take care, and I hope you're well rested when you read this. Hopefully I can put a smile on your beautiful face. I just wish I was there to see it. I love you so much, take care and write me back when you can, promise~?
Yours Always,
- Lisa 🌺💜
Milddd nsfw here muaH <33
Hi, love, I’m so happy that you like your gift! I love you very much as well— hopefully it can give you comfort on some particularly hard nights where I cannot be with you, dearest. Sort of like a reminder that although I cannot be there with you in person, you always carry a piece of my heart with you, you know?
I’ll be sure to relay your message to Cyno and Collei! They were rather surprised when they found out I was your girlfriend, haha! In a good way, of course— they’ve been great company so far.
And don’t worry about the other scholars, Lisa dear. I can handle them plenty fine. I’m sure they’ll go running if I even so much as imply that you wouldn’t be pleased with them for their behavior, my love. They wouldn’t want to mess with one of the best sorcerers to ever roam those halls, you know?
Regarding the lectures, they offered to loan me some textbooks actually, but I had to turn them down since, well, I am just an observer, and carrying so many books with me to and fro would weigh me down. Still, although I sometimes get confused while I observe, It’s such a fun and interesting experience! I can’t say I’m remembering every bit of knowledge I hear, but I’ve definitely learned at least a thing or two.
Just yesterday, there was a bit of a lull in lectures that I was attending— something about one of the scholars who had agreed to host me taking their class out to fieldwork, and I was unable to accompany them. So I took the time to check out some of the restaurants you listed for me! I went to just one of them for lunch, since I didn’t want to get too full throughout the day, and I enjoyed it very much!! I included a picture of one of the dishes you noted for me (a best seller of theirs, apparently) and I didn’t regret purchasing it at all. It was so good! In my free time, it’s one of the recipes that I hope to familiarize and bring back home to you— I think you’ll rather like it, especially since there’s no meat. Hopefully I’ll get good enough at making it that you’ll be able to savor the flavor too!
Though, I don’t mind either if you’d rather return with me next time, and we can have a dinner date here? I really like the ambiance of the place— its both romantic and private. And the view from the balcony here is absolutely magical. Or we can maybe visit a couple of the other restaurants you’ve recommended to me? I doubt that I’ll be able to try all of them this time, and being able to experience it with you would make the experience a million times better.
Also, regarding the photos you mentioned— well, I’m fine with it if you are. As long as you’re comfortable with whoever is photographing you love, then it’s perfectly alright with me. Besides, I know that we’re devoted to each other, so there’s no cause for me to be uncomfortable 💞 If you so wish to grant me such photos, I eagerly await them, love! They’re not the same as you being here, of course, but I’m sure they could help me with how much I miss you.
And ah, sending such things only makes me miss you more! Perhaps I should take a good, long rest before I come back to Mondstadt, if you plan to keep me up all night. And who says I didn’t notice your comment? Perhaps I was just teasing you by keeping quiet about it, especially if I know what’s awaiting me back home. And yes, I miss you so so much, I miss your tongue and you lips, your touch on my skin, the way you hold me and make me feel so good each and every time— Love, really, if your intention with that letter was to get me all worked up, then safe to say you’ve succeeded. My, I doubt I’m going to be getting any sleep tonight, thinking of you.
And regarding that bit about the Academy uniform… well, I might have found a local seamstress who was willing to make me a version of it, tailored to my measurements. It’s not ready quite yet, but hopefully I can send you some photographs soon 💞
By the way, love, there’s no need to have to wait up for my letters, not if you’re not getting enough sleep! I don’t mind waiting a bit for your reply as long as I know you’re sleeping on time. I worry about you as much as you worry about me, so for both your sake and mine, promise me you’ll get enough sleep? Either way, though, I’m glad you’re taking care of yourself, dearest. It makes me happy, knowing that you and the others are doing well. I love you very, very much you know? Please continue to stay safe, dearest, and know that I’m always missing you.
And, well, regarding a proper proposal, though I can’t say I haven’t thought of it before (how could I not? I can fully envision spending the rest of my life with you) I would much prefer if I were able to give you the ring and ask you in person, love. That being said, take the bracelet as a promise that I’ll return to you soon— and hopefully with a ring that I think you’ll like and a question that I plan to ask you.
All the best wishes, dearest. I love you very much 💞
—Catte 💞

We are not just friends — Part 11
Chris Evans x bi!latina!character (Sofia is a people of color, she's brown.)
Chris and Sofia meet when their best friends started dating, it all started at friends with loads of bumps on the road.  
Warnings: drinking, smoking, drug use (weed), assault, Chris being Steve Rogers, commitment issues, my girl Sofia kinda messy, lots of fucking (eventually) 
This is slow burn at its best, at least emotionally. 
Series masterlist
Tumblr media
Chris followed Sofia back to her office, she closed her door and he waited outside thinking if he should really keep pressing her because he knew Sofia, of he, kept poking her long enough—
"I can literally see you pacing," Sofia spoke from inside the office and Chris took it as an invitation. "I'm sure your mother teach you to knock," She said without not overlooking from the computer screen. 
"Sof, come on," Chris said closing the door behind him and sat down on the chair in front of her. "laid it on me, I deserve it."
"I have nothing to tell you."
"Yes, you do."
Sofia looked up at him with the most venomous look he had ever see on her eyes. "What do you want me to tell you?, I'm not going to berate you. I've done the yelling things for two years, I'm done with that. You wanna keep fucking your ex–
" I don't, " He interrupted her.
" Cool, but don't drag me in the middle."
"I'm not dragging you into anything, I already told you I don't wanna be just friends. Fuck, I want you." Chris said leaning on the desk. 
"And that again," She shakes her head. "I'm mad at you right now and you drop that, what are you expecting?, that I'll be excited to date you now. You make out with your ex-girlfriend in front of me and then asked me to be with you." She put the computer aside. "Then I meet this guy, and I wanted to make up with him but he started typecasting as young Salma Hayek, which I don't even look like her. I turned him down and he asked me if I was an escort, I mean, what the fuck?" 
"Oh my God," Chris rubbed his face and looked at her again. "Fuck. I'm sorry, Sof. I swear I didn't know—fuck."
"Yeah, all that while you were sucking face, baby. I didn't fuck him up because I respect you. So yeah, you're a fucking asshole." She said sighing deeply. "I know, we are friends and not at all exclusive, you can do whatever you want but at least let me fucking know first and I'll be cool with it."
"Yes, you're absolutely right," 
"I know," 
"I'm sorry, I never wanted to make you feel like that. I'm an asshole,"
"Yes, you're." She looked at him, feeling a little more at ease because for some reason she was waiting for the ball to drop, for Chris to tell her something else, for him not to admit he fucked up. "Thanks for somehow don't turn this around and blame me for it." 
"Fuckig Tiffany," He said standing up and walked up to her and Sofia closed her computer and looked at him. 
"I can accept food as an apology,"
"Whatever you want, my threat." 
"Yeah, and carry my bag," She said trying to hide her smile as she put her things on her bag and handed it to him.
 "Gladly," Chris smile as she leads the way.
~~~
They drive around a little bit at Sofia's request as she tried to wrap her head on what Chris had asked her before, they always talked a lot, about a range of things and both of them were almost on the same page respecting their views, political or religious and their struggle with it, but they never really talked relationship, she never asked and Chris asked a little about hers. 
"Do you ever feel panic over a relationship?" She asked. 
"Yeah, sometimes… when I meet someone that I really like, then we date sometimes gets complicated or we don't meet certain expectations. It gets me anxious sometimes I panic a bit." Chris explained as she nods. 
"Like, you feel trapped if not workout like you expect?"
"Sometimes," He explained drinking his coffee and then took a turn, slowly heading to his house. "Most of the woman I date, they just wanna… Please me," Chris groaned. "Or they just wanna do whatever I want to do… Fuck, I'm too picky?" He asked laughing almost bitterly as Sofía snorted. 
“Yes, but shit—I'll be picky too.” She shrugged and shifted on the seat to look at him better. “Do you ask that, out of panic? That you wanna be with me.”
Chris turned his head and looked straight to her eyes, he wanted to know where that came from—does she want him? the same way he wants her?. 
“I… I don't know if it was panic—I know I want to be with you,” Chris replied, and Sofia sigh. 
“But why? you're telling me that sometimes you feel trapped with girls and stuff.” She asked putting down her coffee into to cup holder. “And still you want to progress things with me?”
“You don't make me feel like that.” Chris quickly said and Sofia rolled her eyes. 
“And pretty sure all of your exes didn't make you feel like that when you progress things.” She spat sarcastically. Chris snort and rubbed his beard, frustrated at her opposition. 
“It's different—”
“In what way?” She quickly asked and Chris smiled at her eagerness. 
“We are friends, not just casual friends. All my possible free time in Boston I'd rather spend it with you than with anyone else and that was before I even began—” He explained and quickly stopped when he was about to overshare his feelings that he wasn't sure about it either. “You know, thinking about you in some other way.”
“Come on,” She laughed and punch him in the arm. “I know you wanted to fuck me since you saw me in that bar.” She lightens the mood for a bit. 
“Of course, you're so fucking hot,” He got distracted for a moment. “But it's not just fucking you anymore, I love that—I do. I just want more,”
“To date me?”
“Yes!” He almost shouted and Sofia looked forward, silent for a moment. 
“I don't want this to end, us—” She pointed between then and Chris agreed. 
“Neither do I.”
“Dating put this at risk. What if we broke up? and we don't get to see each other again?”
“Why would be broke out?” 
“I don't know, maybe you kissing one of your four hundred exes.” She sasses him and Chris pursed his lips together thinking that he fucked up but had something to say to her too. 
"Are you jealous?" 
"Excuse me?" 
"Because you said that you were going to make out with that idiot at the party, so you were trying to make me jealous." He pointed out and Sofia stares at him. 
"It would have work?" She puckers her lips at him and Chris stare at her. "and you can't say nothing," Sofia mock him and Chris looked straight ahead at the road. “I kinda got jealous too and—” Sofía shifted in the seat, willing to admit that she wanted to kiss that dude out of spite. shit no, I'm fucking crazy. “that's why I left, you went with me—I'm not saying we should be making out  everywhere we go but.”
“I went with you and we've got something going on.”
“Right.”
“I get it and I know you enough that you do things out of spite—” They both laughed and she rolled her eyes. “I deserved it.”
“Nah,” She shakes her head playing with the end of her shirt. “I don't know how to—.” They both stayed silent for a long moment, Chris had parked the car on a nearby street. "I don't know how to do this right, I don't wanna hurt you and I don't wanna get hurt. I appreciate your friendship so much, man…" She sighed deeply. 
“You wanna end this? I mean… go back.” Chris asked and Sofia looked at him.
“Do you want that?” Sofía asked. 
“No, definitely not.” Chris quickly answers and she nods, thinking the same thing. 
"Okay, what about we keep doing this—but as friends, no strings, no pressure. Just let it flow and see where it goes?" Sofia propose, mostly trying to stir Chris's ideas of relationships because the only thing that she was sure was that she wanted Chris on her life. 
He didn't seem satisfied but at least she was compromising on something. He can work with that… for the moment. 
'Alright, yes. I'd like that.'

WAIT NO COME BACK, it's Daddy kink Charles slut again! We can't talk about Arthur's tattooed wedding band without talking about thEIR W E D D I N G. Who proposed? How? How long had they been dating? What was the ceremony like? Since Arthur isn't really religious and I don't /feel/ like Charles is either Can you tell that Charthur is my fave and I'll go down with this ship?
I’m having a rough night feller. Thanks for this!!
Arthur and Charles absolutely had one of those Gay™ moments where one of them starts to propose and the other is like “I was gonna propose!” like
They’ve been ddating three or four years, and they’d talk about it, once or twice; do they want to do the marriage thing, what it means to them, if it’s something they want or if just saying “always,” between the two of them, is enough… but I don’t think they ever decide on like a “yes, let’s.” Just an abstract “some day, yeah.”
So I think Charles waits until he’s finished law school, til he’s got his future locked down and is ready to start his life. He’s almost guaranteed a position, if he passes the bar, so he’s feeling pretty stable and ready to like… have a career and do the real grown up thing.
It’s at the like, party they have, after his graduation. It’s a little garden party, him and a couple of law school buddies all have a garden party, invite family and friends – of course Charles and his crew are the odd ones out, the rest of his friends have that family money – and it’s a nice, classy affair. Charles gets to wear a Nice Suit (the one Hosea tailored for him, cuz god be damned if any young man Hosea knows is gonna walk around wearing an ill-fitting suit), and Arthur dresses nice for the occasion too. Everyone’s there, I think ; John, maybe Javi, Dutch and Hosea, Tilly and Sadie (Tilly is a friend of Charles’s from his undergrad), Susan. Charles’s mom even flew in from Montana to watch him cross the stage.
And Charles has the ring in his pocket, he’s nervous as all fuck – knows Arthur will say yes, but wants this to be perfect… kinda wants to make Arthur cry, say something so touching Arthur cries!! He wants to!!
He’s also told like, everyone that Today is The Day, and they’re all playing it cool, though Dutch is SUPREMELY bad at playing it cool. He keeps like, winking at Charles every chance he gets and giving him thumbs up like “you got this 👍👍👍” and it’s like… jfc Dutch, fucking chill
So they’re hanging around, chatting, eating kosher hotdogs on artisanal gluten-free organic ancient grain buns (Beau’s dad hired the caterer and it’s the fanciest mediocre hotdog Charles has ever had in his life – Arthur’s disappointed that they hired catering cuz he fucking loves to grill), and Arthur is all like, “I’m gonna grab some more champagne, babe, you want some?” and Charles sees the perfect opportunity and he SNATCHES IT and is like “sure!”
And so Arthur turns, walks to the lil table and Charles gets down on his knee, has the little ring box in his hand, he’s fucking primed to strike, when Arthur turns around it’s fucking PROPOSAL TIME BABEYYY
When Arthur does turn around he kinda… jumps, a little, spills a little champagne, and then he’s… fucking laughing?? Laughing hard, like he can’t believe it, and Charles wasn’t expecting that at all… and Charles is like “Arthur Morgan –“
And Arthur is like “Shit!! Shit!!” and he’s still laughing and he gets on his knees, still holding both glasses of champagne, and holds one up for Charles to see and of course, of COURSE,
His cheese all fucking boyfriend stuck a ring in the champagne glass. Was gonna surprise Charles like that.
So then Charles starts laughing, and Arthur is laughing, and Arthur chugs the glass of champagne so he can get the ring, and Charles holds out one hand, and Arthur is like OH and so he chugs the OTHER glad of champagne so he can hold out HIS hand and they both slide the ring onto the others finger and then kind of just like… hold hands, and laugh, and press their foreheads together, and they don’t need to say anything, they just know, they’ve always known –
But then John (who has been dutifully filming the whole thing on his phone, like Arthur asked him to) is like “Well?? Say SOMETHING!”
So Charles goes “Will you –“ at the same time Arthur goes “Charles, I –“ and then they’re laughing again and mumble some nonsense no one can make out and then they kiss, and of course the whole fucking party stopped to watch and they clap and it’s embarrassing and stupid and fucking perfect…
The wedding ceremony itself is pretty low key. Dutch and Hosea are a pair of Old Queens, want something fancy and elaborate, but Charles and Arthur aren’t like that, and they’re not super religious, so they choose to have something secular and small and intimate, close family and friends only.
When Dutch n Hosea retired, they bought an acreage a couple hours outside the city (Dutch insists that land is the best form of capital to invest in or something idk) where they’ve got a couple horses n a lot of room, so that’s where they have the wedding. It’s the summer and the prairie grass is long and the chairs are mismatched, but that’s ok because it’s Charles and Arthur and everyone else they love and it’s perfect.
Of course Dutch and Hosea walk Arthur to the fuckin altar or whatever – Dutch wears red accents, Hosea wears blue, Arthur purple. It’s cute and cheesy and I love it?? Charles has a nice turquoisey pocket square and tie, and Tilly braids his hair for the occasion and he looks so fuckin sexy!!
A friend of Susan’s (Swanson!) officiates, John is Arthur’s best man and Tilly and Sadie are Charles’s maids of honour or whatever?? their vows are short but eloquent, and they agree – “Always.”
The reception is all food Susan and Arthur and Charles’s mom slaved over the day before, and they cut the cake with a fuckin tomahawk. I feel like they also do like, axe-throwing or something as like, a party game or whatever idk
At the end of the day, once the guests are all gone and it’s like 3am and they’re still a little tipsy, Arthur and Charles collapse into bed in one of the guest rooms and Christ, it’s been a long, stressful, nerve-wracking day, they don’t have the energy for wedding sex, they just wanna curl up and hold each other and go to sleep and –
And of course they can hear, real faintly through the walls, John and Javi in the next room, Javi all “quiet, flaquita, I know it’s your first time, you’ve been saving yourself for me, haven’t you? But you have to be quiet, that’s my good girl, love you so much… you’re so tight, darlin', we gotta go so, so slow – you feel that, how tight your virgin pussy is on me? My little bride, my little wife, my good girl, gonna cum in you, gonna make you mine, let your tight pussy milk –“
Arthur and Charles pass out in spite of the noise, and in the morning they wake up before the others and sit and have coffee together and are all “pass me the sugar, Mister Smith,” “It would be my pleasure, my darling husband.”
Arthur almost immediately starts calling Charles “the ol' ball-and-chain” and thinks it’s absolutely hilarious and Charles just rolls his eyes
Thanks for the ask, mister! It cheered me right up uwu

Hi Tati! I'm new in the fandom but I saw someone saying on twitter that the IW/WA fandom is quiet asf during this hiatus. The person said that during the last hiatus we were more active, we were out there advocating for Iris/WA in EP's/writers mentions, we were trying to get CP be nominated for awards and now seems like everyone gone. I don't know if it's true bc I was not here last hiatus and if this is true I'm very sad. You have that impression too? Thank you and sorry for my bad English.
I am not a fan of comparing in that way, but I will say: Candice is actually nominated for a Teen Choice award of her own this year (unlike last year), so there’s a perfect opportunity for you to get active if you’re worried. Just tweet “My #ChoiceActionTVActress is @candicekp #TheFlash” ten times day no matter where you live and vote here ten times a day if you’re in the US. 
We also have #CandicePattonWeek on Twitter, which just requires one tweet a day from you using these categories. You can @ Candice and send some to @flashtvwriters as well. 
And don’t forget about the EOnline TV Scoop awards. “Runnin’ Home To You” is in 2nd place here, Barry and Iris are in 9th places for best couple and 6th place for sexiest moment here, Candice herself is in 15th place for Best Drama Actress here, and you can vote for “Iris and HR switched places” here. Vote as much as you want for all of them.
Outside of things we can currently tweet about or vote for? Candice is nominated for a Saturn Award for the first time ever, “Runnin’ Home To You” will probably be nominated for an Emmy, and she’s doing more photoshoots than she was last hiatus. We’re never gonna be an army-like fandom the way some other CW shows are, but we don’t have to be as long as everyone who wants to participate in promoting Candice on social media does it in whatever way they can. Take Candice’s advice and don’t have to compare yourself to others as long as you’re doing what you can; honor your pace instead. ;)
@ “lois lane type” anon: 
I have thought long and hard about exactly the kind of question you presented, and as embarrassed as I feel asking it myself (because of who I am and not the question itself), I think it’s incredibly important to do. So yes, I will absolutely ask that of the producers as soon as I get the opportunity. Your last part could even be included in the question too, it butters them up like, “How does it feel to have accomplished _____ with your choices? And do you realize what an impact that decision has made on _____?” Hopefully that’s clear to you, haha.
I hope the tca’s are rigged in Candice and WA’s favor this year 😂
It’s already a miracle that they nominated her! And since Caity was nominated too, it would be fun to see the girls go together.
Oh, I want a LOT of Irisco stuff. It’d be funny if Iris and Cisco share a comical scene in regards to Cindy and Iris would be like “You idiot!” but at the same time, give him words of encouragement. LOL!
Aww, I would love that. Let’s hope it happens!
WA is secure. You don’t write a narrative at how Barry and Iris will always find each other, you don’t get a song specifically written for this couple, you don’t have them in multiverse and they are married (exception of musical where Iris was with Mo**l), you don’t give this couple two marriage proposals and you don’t have all this foreshadowing of Bart or children for this couple for them to say hey let’s give SB a shot. That makes no sense. SB are embarrassing themselves tbh.
Agreed, but it’s their time and they’re free to embarrass themselves as they wish lmao.
The writers aren’t interested in SB. They’ve had plenty of opportunities to explore them. During S1 while Iris was with Eddie. Barry could’ve hooked up w Caitlin in S2 instead of Patty. They could’ve done an AU SB on Earth 2 instead of married WA. Barry could’ve married or been dating Caitlin during FlashPoint instead of pursuing Iris. Hell even w Savitar. They could’ve had a Savitar/Killer Frost romance easily. They’ve passed on every chance to explore SB. They aren’t interested period.
Yup, they’ve have not shown any interest in pursuing romantic SB. Or in couple-swapping of any kind, for that matter.

Don't use ABRA Auto Body & Glass on Woodmen!
Tumblr media
So when I left the ABRA Auto Body & Glass repair shop on Woodmen yesterday I immediately wanted to write this whole experience down.  I was upset.  Mad.  Angry.  But I was also busy and had a lot to do, so I put it off until today.  I’m still upset about the whole situation, but I’ll probably write everything down much nicer than I would have yesterday. Please note I’m fairly certain of the dates/times of calls (I checked my phone but didn’t keep solid records of each conversation, as I’m sure they did), but a few could be off by a few hours; maybe a day, but nothing more if at all.  In any event, the start and end dates are the same, which is what really matters in this whole thing.
On November 13th, while the car was parked at the Humane Society (Emily and I volunteer there on Sundays), someone backed into it as they were backing out of their parking space.  They couldn’t see my vehicle as they were backing up.  The driver was uninsured but luckily the car was (it was his girlfriends moms car).  Here’s info on that incident: http://lauramclark.tumblr.com/post/153152930139/car-damage
The damage was really minimal (I thought it could be easily fixed with a hammer if I could just get to the spot that was dented), but it’s Thomas’ car, so I let him make the call on whether or not to get it fixed.  After talking with our neighbor he decided call the insurance company and take it in to get repaired at ABRA Auto Body & Glass on Woodmen (their choice).
We made an appointment for an estimate, and were absolutely shocked when it came in at about $1500.  Luckily that was more than our deductible, so we wouldn’t need to pay for any of the repairs.  The fix should only take 3-4 days, but could get a rental car for free.  Once again, Thomas gave the go-ahead. 
I tried to schedule the repairs during Christmas break (which was over a month away). We’d be in California and wouldn’t need the vehicle so it made sense to us.  Unfortunately they were booked until January.  They’d let me know if something came up earlier.  Nothing did.  I’m pretty sure they never intended to work on the vehicle earlier in the first place (a conversation with the receptionist gave me this impression when we checked in).
Thomas would be without a car for 3-4 days.  It was an on convenience, but luckily Rebecca could help take him to and from school.  We went to drop the car off on a Tuesday night because they don’t open until Wednesday morning at 7:30am and I needed to be at work by 7.  This was also a deciding factor in not getting the rental car.  That place didn’t open until 7:30am either, and insurance wouldn’t pay to pick it up the night before service.  Ugh.
Well, we were told when we made the appointment it would be a quick drop-off procedure.  In fact, if we dropped it off and they were already closed all we needed to do was leave the key in the dropbox.  That, like many things with this experience, turned out not to be true. It took over 30 minutes.  They needed to re-inspect the vehicle to make sure they were doing the correct repairs and to get the right parts.  Hmmm.  I wonder if people end up getting in accidents in the 2 months it takes to get their vehicle fixed and expect them to fix the additional damage?
Anyway, everything checked out clear and the repairs could proceed as planned.  There was nothing new that wasn’t there when the initial inspection was done.  They’d start the repairs in the morning.  Wonderful. 
The next morning (Wednesday) I got a text saying they were working on the vehicle.  Great! 
Thursday I got a call indicating they were going to start the repairs, but wanted to see if I was ok changing some of them.  They no longer wanted to repair the bumper.  I could pay to replace it (my insurance company wouldn’t cover that) or they could just fix the area on the bumper that was damaged and my insurance would give me $100 in the exchange.   I was a bit confused, as the prior text I received said they were already working on it and the guy who called me made it sound like they hadn’t started yet.  Matt (the USAA service provider assigned to my vehicle) advised me to just fix the part on the bumper. I was confused and told him I just wanted it fixed like we’d initially discussed.  Apparently that was no longer an option.  His response:  “I don’t think you understand what I’m saying.  We will fix it, but we won’t replace it, and you’ll get $100 from your insurance.”  He talked me into this despite my saying I wanted what we’d originally discussed.  He assured me this was the better option (in a kind of condescending way, like I didn’t know what I was talking about).  I told him just wanted the car fixed without paying anything out of pocket, and he said everything was “on time for completion” so I was ok with this and went along with what he proposed.
Monday I got a call around 9am saying the car should be done later that day, and they’d call me around 1-2pm to confirm. 
I didn’t get a call.  So I called them.  I was placed on hold, and 3 minutes later hung up on.  Twice.
Much later Matt later called me back and stated during the carwash there was water in the headlight, so the vehicle headlight hadn’t passed inspection.  He made it sound like this was in some way my fault, and the vehicle would be ready for an on time delivery the next day, after they received the new parts. 
I was upset, as to me, this was not “on time”.  On time would have been Sunday.  I told him as much.  This is where the rudeness really began.  He was dumbfounded anyone would be expected to work on the weekends, let me know as much by implying it would have been rude of me to expect that of any repair shop, and told me I should have known they meant 3-4 business days.  In any event, nothing in his notes said anyone had told me 3-4 days, so what I’d said had no merit. I kindly refrained from letting him know Monday, today, was business day 4 in this whole scenario.  He let me know the vehicle would be ready tomorrow for an “on time completion”.  I was a bit snarky when I replied “just because you keep saying that doesn’t make it true.”  His response:  “Well.  Whatever”.
Hmmm. 
Tuesday I got a call around 9am saying the car should be done later that day.  They’d call me around 1-2pm to confirm.  Not surprisingly I didn’t get that call.
Wednesday I got a call at 9am saying hopefully they’d get the part in that day.  They did, and I’d be able to pick up the car at 3pm (once again, I had to call them to get this information). 
Imagine my surprise when I went to pick up the car and the bumper hadn’t been fixed!  The headlight had been replaced, and the dent had been repaired, but the bumper was still damaged.  I asked him why they hadn’t fixed it.  I’d told them I just wanted everything fixed like we’d agreed in the beginning without paying anything out of pocket.  That’s what we had discussed and what I’d expected.
Matt disagreed.  He said they did what we’d discussed.  I’d forgone fixing the bumper and replacing the bumper in lieu of the $100.
We went back on forth about how that wasn’t what I agreed to.  His response:  “It’s not my fault I can’t make you understand what I’m saying.”
Think about this statement.  He said it in a very patronizing way, like I was an idiot for not understanding what he’d said.  Thomas looked at me sideways with a look that said “Are you going to let him talk to you like that?”
I tried a different approach:  “We seem to have very different communication styles.  Obviously there was a disconnect.  Let me try again.”  Trying to resolve the situation I said this in a very even tone.  I told him I’d expected the bumper to be fixed, not replaced, like we’d discussed.
Matt pointed to bumper damage I hadn’t seen before and said I wouldn’t have been happy if they’d just fixed it because it would have caused the paint to peel over the pot marks in the bumper. This made no sense to me, this damage wasn’t there upon initial inspection or when I’d brought it in to be fixed, and I told him as much.  Why hadn’t they told me this when we got the estimate or when I’d checked the car in?
Oh, but he’d called to tell me.  (That was enough of an explanation for him, but it obviously didn’t address my question).
Clearly his response didn’t make me happy.  Not only did it not answer my question, it brought us back to him telling me originally the bumper would be fixed.  It seems he was talking about the OTHER damage, not the bumper.  This guy talked in circles, and then got upset when I tried to clarify.  Each time I tried to clarify he’d answer in a different way that gave me a different answer.  He kept changing his answers and blaming our lack of understanding on me!!!
"It's not that bad of damage.  You can just buff it out" was his last statement.  I refrained from screaming that's why I brought it to get fixed in the first place!!!
Finally, realizing we were just talking in circles, I asked Thomas if he was ok with the repairs, and he said yes, so I decided to just let it go. 
I told Matt we weren’t really happy as it wasn’t what we’d discussed, but we weren’t paying for it so we’d just deal with it. 
Matt’s response in a condescending tone:  “Well, I can’t make you understand what I’m saying.” Once, again, like it was my fault I didn’t understand him.
Then I proceeded:  “This isn’t something I feel like pursuing.  Every time you talk with me you make it sound like I’m the one being difficult.  Like I’m a B!%*#  and not worth your time.  I need this conversation to be over before I start acting like one.”
Matt:  “Well, whatever.”  As he walked away.
I was shocked he was employed in a service position. Matt is not a good customer service representative for ABRA Auto Body & Glass.  He was condescending, has poor communication skills, lacks cognitive empathy, and I’m pretty sure he was talking down to me because I’m a woman. Matt was rude.  Matt lied.  Matt tried to talk over me when I talked and couldn’t keep his story straight.  Since Matt is their USAA customer representative I will never go back to ABRA Auto Body & Glass again. 
Oh, and after all the initial paperwork, etc., I never signed anything when I picked up the vehicle indicating I was satisfied with the repairs, etc.  Weird?
