PUPPY LOVE [ LANDO NORRIS ]

synopsis: you and lando as pet parents

warnings: fluff, just lando x y/n being the cutest, a lot of dog, not proofread

wc: 900+

since lando was a little kid he always wanted a dog.

since you were a little kid, you also wanted a dog.

and then you started dating. and got a dog.

"lando, for god's sake, how many times have i told you to not leave the leash by the door? i almost tripped!" you yell as you walk into the house back from work.

you and lando started dating 3 years ago and had your not-so-little dog for 2. his name was max - cause lando thought it was the funniest thing to name his dog after his best friend - and he was a huge golden retriever, the cutest you have ever met.

"sorry, love." you hear his muffled voice. when you walk into your room, the scenes strikes you like a bunch of hearts flying at your face.

lando was laying in bed, hugging max and with his head buried in the yellow fur. the dog was looking curiously at the door, waiting for your voice to actually become you.

when max sees you, his tail slaps in lando's leg and he stand up, moving in bed happily.

"hey, big boy." you greet him, caressing his fur and sitting down.

"where's my hi?" lando asks, his arms still plopped in the bed as he look at you.

"hey, big boy." you say again, now running his fingers through lando's hair. he shakes his ass like a tail wagging, for the joke, you laugh loudly. "stop it."

"so, sorry about the leash." he says sitting up. the dog going around you and laying with his head on your lap.

"always, huh?" you tease, almost mad.

"max was eager to drink some water, i can't say no to our only child!" he says in a high-pitched voice.

you push his head, he falls right back in bed and you stand up, resting max's head carefully on the matress.

"you should go take a shower, i'll order something for us, to enjoy or last weekend together." you groan as you remember the triple header coming and the amount of time you'd spent away from each other. "you want something special?"

"sushi?" you try, as always, convincing lando.

"hell no." he frowns, as he always do.

"i'll take some pizza, then." you shrug, walking in the shower.

when you get off, wrapping a towel around yourself, lando is not in the room. as you get dressed he appears, whistling and putting the pizza box down at the side table.

"don't let max get it before we can!" i barely yell, remembering the time lando placed the box on the bed and walked over to me. when we turned back, there was only two or three bites left of the pizza and a very hungry dog looking at us with his doe little eyes.

"sure, ma'am." lando sits down on bed, what gets a grunt from the dog.

you sit on bed, already in your pajamas, getting comfortable while lando puts something on the tv.

you take a piece of the pizza, biting it as max looks at you hopefully. you chuckle at his eyes.

"when did you learn to be like that, man?" you talk to the dog as lando puts one arm around your waist and uses the other one to grab his own piece of pizza.

"he was a good example." you look at your boyfriend as he looks at you with such doe eyes. "you sure you can't go to any race in the next weeks?"

"i can try, but my boss is already eating me alive for absolutely nothing." you roll your eyes and rest against his arm.

"you know you don't have to stay in this job, right?" he starts again as you huff. "i know, i know, you want to be independent! you can be independent working in a job that doens't stress you out that much."

"i like my job, lan." you argue.

"i know you do, but i'm saying that you're always complaining about something when you could just quit and be with me during the weekends." he pouts.

"i'm gonna try and make it out for at least one of the races, 'k?" you rest your head in his shoulder and looks up at him.

"better, yeah." he sighs.

you hear a huff from the end of the bed and turn to see your dog looking at you like a maniac, begging for a bite of your pizza.

"look at his face!" lando exclaims, pointing out.

"max, please." you cry and the door licks his mouth.

"no way your winning, better his give him a bite before he decides to get one by himself."

you have dinner and watch a few episodes of a show you had started weeks ago with lando - and max. as the night finally starts tire you, you let out a few yawns before lando realises it's already pretty late.

"let's have some sleep, babe." he whispers, turning off his side table lamp and getting comfortable with you in his arms.

not a minute goes by before the sound of ruffling sheets is heard and you feel a furred and soft by your feet. when you realise, max is already in the middle of you two, also seeking the comfort lando so desperately wanted.

"max!" he complains as his arms are torned away from your skin.

"let him be." it's the last thing you remember saying before drifting into sleep.

No more distance

“She doesn’t want to leave the bloody apartment Pablo! How am I supposed to talk her into this???” Your friend was secretly on the phone with your boyfriend who was on his way to surprise you since it’s been awhile since you’ve been together.

“Take her to sushi…she loves sushi!” He said and she agreed sending him the address of the place they will be so he can just show up and surprise you.

“I don’t want to leave this bed!!! Just leave me here!!!” You were whining for half an hour while she tried to get you to get ready.

“Not even for sushi???” She used Gavis advice which was working like a charm. You were up and going in a few minutes.

“I know it can’t be easy girl…being so far away? But you love each other a lot and you will survive this!” She said but you were still in the bad mood really missing Pablo little extra lately. It’s been a long time since you were close to each other…close enough to touch and kiss like a real couple…

“I miss him a lot…” you sighed feeling someone place hands on your eyes and you screamed making the whole restaurant pay you attention while your friend giggled.

“Would you giggle if someone kidnaps me too!??” You said touching the obvious manly hands as your heart started racing as tears fell down your cheeks wetting Pablo’s hands.

“You’re not real…you can’t be really here…I’m dreaming again…it’s a dream!!!” You said and a Pablo’s heart melted when he felt you crying as he moved closer squatting down and removing his hands but you were still keeping your eyes closer.

“Amor, open your eyes preciosa…” Pablo was drying your tears seeing your friend smiling at the two of you.

“If I do that…you will disapper” you Said sadly AND Pablo smiled leaning in AND kissing your wet cheeks.

“I’m not going anywhere…not without you…again” he spoke while kissing and you were blushing hard at the thought of everyone watching you two right now.

“Um…Pablo?” You say reaching your hand and placing it on his face without watching and he chuckled.

“Yes, amor???” He answered kissing your fingers on his mouth.

“You promise???” You ask and he nodded which you felt under your hand.

“I promise…open up and look at me preciosa” he said and you slowly opened your eyelids smiling wide when you say that he was really there with you.

“P…p..ablo” you said and he smiled leaning closer and kissing your lips this time as everyone cheered before returning to their dinners.

“Hi…” he said after pulling away and you snaked your arms around his neck staring at him in utter awe.

“Hi…” you repeats as he kissed your nose playfully.

“We’re gonna…” Pablo started and your friend nodded smiling at you being happy again with him together.

“Go..!” She said and you two ran out of the restaurant holding onto each others hand very tightly.

Pablo took you to get some ice cream and you were currently cuddling in bed chatting about any random thing that came to mind.

"I can't believe you're really here Pablito..." you said nuzzling your face into his neck and he smiled kissing the top of your head.

"I missed you so much preciosa...having you sleep in my arms like this. It's priceless...so please come to Barcelona with me?" he said and you were currently tearing up feeling so happy that Pablo didn't want to leave you again.

"Are you sleeping or choosing to ignore my question amor? " he giggled feeling a little worried of scaring you off but when you looked up at him with those happy eyes he knew already what is your answer.

"I want to go to Barcelona with you Pablo...no more distance!!!" you said and he leaned down to kiss your lips loving;y.

[afictionaladventure16]

hey! i had a little idea for To Build A Home;

y/n and pedro hang out together for the first time alone (y/n is very hesitant and stuff about it, and still unsure about pedro)

pedro’s trying his hardest to start conversations with y/n, but they’re giving short and vague answers, not wanting to give a longer answer in fear of starting an actual conversation and accidentally growing attached and comfortable around Pedro.

After they finish hanging out, Y/N goes to their room and tells their friend about the day and how she was unsure about Pedro and felt bad for how they treated him earlier.

Pedro tells Y/N’s mom about how the hang out went, and their mom isn’t happy at all.

Once Pedro leaves their house, readers called downstairs to talk.

Mom starts getting angry at Y/N telling them that this is the happiest she’s ever been and she could at least try to make an effort to bond with him, and thought they were open to the idea of going to hang out with Pedro. Y/N tells their mom that they don’t trust Pedro yet or something along the lines of that…. mean words are exahcnged back and forth, gets lowk emotional and stuff.

(jesus christ this ended up being much much longer than i thought lol whoops)

To Build A Home Pt. II (Pedro Pascal x Teen!Reader)

Pedro Pascal Masterlist

A/N: I feel like this one isn't as good. Let me know what you think!

Summary: Pedro plans out a day for the two of you to bond, but it doesn't turn out the way Pedro and your mother expected it to.

Word Count: 3,105

Warnings: mentions of abuse

There was no way you were getting out of this. No matter how much you pleaded or begged or even tried to bribe your way out of it, your mom was dead set on this. 

You sat on the couch, waiting once again. For a moment you felt like you were five again, waiting to be picked up by your father to go out for the day. For a moment, you felt scared. 

Your mom paced in the kitchen, it was something she always did. Sometimes you wondered if she felt safe in the kitchen and if the things that surrounded her there gave her a feeling of confidence. Anything she needed to protect herself was within arms reach, she had to learn that the hard way. 

Your mom comes rushing back into the living room, “He’s here,” she said in a rushed tone. “Do you have your jacket?” 

“Mom, it’s the middle of April,” you comment, standing up from your spot on the couch. 

“Remember I gave you a twenty for lunch, if he tells you to put it away, you tell me.” 

“Why are you testing him? You know he’s gonna tell me to put it away,” you huffed. You didn’t know much about Pedro, but from what you’ve researched you knew he was a giver. It didn’t mean that you weren’t going to be on your toes around him, because you were, regardless of what’s on the internet, you still didn’t truly know him. 

Your mother rolled her eyes as she walked over to the door, opening it to reveal Pedro standing at the other side, “Pedro!” She smiled and gave him a big hug. He kissed her cheek before letting go of the hug. “I’d stay and chat, but you two should get going before it gets late.” She turned around to face you, “My meeting should end around four, shoot me a text if you guys are done before then, alright?” 

She looks at Pedro, “She’s allergic to shellfish, so sushi or any seafood place is out of the question, okay? Also, she burns up pretty easily and develops a rash when overheated–Oh, honey, do you have your Epipen? She needs to carry that with her at all times.” 

“Mom,” you groaned in embarrassment.  

“Don’t worry, cariño, she’ll be safe in my hands,” Pedro gave your mother a reassuring smile. “Ready?” he asked as he turns to look over at you. 

You gave him a small nod before following him out the door, “See you later.” You heard him say to your mother. 

Once you were in the car, Pedro handed you his phone, “mind picking out something to listen to?” 

You shrugged, opening up his phone, it was brave of him to not have it locked. You opened up his Spotify app noticing a variety of genres in his liked playlist. From Prince to even Omar Apollo, you had to admit that he had good taste. It was all music your mother showed you or that you had discovered on your own. 

You settled with Omar Apollo, letting his music play on shuffle as Pedro drove. 

“Nice, I love Omar!” He exclaimed. “I actually went to his concert not too long ago, he’s an amazing performer.” 

“That’s nice,” you commented. 

Pedro hummed in response, he was nervous all day about this. He sat up all night overthinking different things to ask you, what was appropriate and what wasn’t. If he should ask you about school or if that was stupid, what kid wanted to talk about school? Regardless of all the questions, he knew he had to prepare himself for the worst. He knew that there would be a chance that you wouldn’t say anything at all. 

Pedro mentally prepared himself for the possibility you would give him one-word answers or even the cold shoulder. He knew he couldn’t take it personally. He was a man that was coming into your life and it wasn’t going to be easy for you, no matter how much space he can give you, it isn’t easy. 

Minutes went by, and Pedro cleared his throat, “We’re almost there,” he stated. He just knew that just because you might give him the cold shoulder, it was best for him not to react the same way. He had to talk, be himself with you. 

You gave him a small nod as you continued to look out of the window watching as the ocean slowly came into view. “I swear every time I see the ocean, it always manages to amaze me,” Pedro commented. 

You hummed in response. Pedro didn’t say much after that for the rest of the ride, he let the music do the talking. 

Don’t take it personally, Pedro. He kept reminding himself as he continued to drive down the freeway. 

Pedro pulled into the parking lot, and you looked at the signs directing towards the aquarium. It wasn’t a place you thought Pedro would take you to. He seemed like the kind of guy to want to go to amusement parks or even an escape room. You’d be lying if you said you weren’t disappointed that you weren’t at Disneyland. 

You got out of the car and walked beside Pedro toward the entrance. Even though it wasn’t Disneyland, you knew it was going to be a good experience. Especially since this was your first time in an aquarium. 

Pedro paid for two tickets and led you inside, there was a weird echo within the building, you could see parts of the aquarium from the entrance, and part of you felt like a little kid again. Eager to run over to the glass and watch the fishes swim by, just like the little kids in front of you. It was an experience you had missed out on as a kid and now you wanted to live it. 

Pedro could see how your eyes widen at the sight of the tall glass that you had never been to an aquarium and for a second he didn’t know if bringing you was the right choice. Was he overstepping? He shook the thoughts out of his head, knowing very well that he wasn’t overstepping. He had asked your mother days before if it was okay and she had given him the okay, but he couldn’t help his anxiety. 

You both walked down a small hallway that led to a dark room that was barely lit by the light coming from the aquarium. “Whoa,” you breathed out. Watching as a large whale shark came into view. 

For a moment, you forgot everything. 

For a moment, you were one of the fishes. Swimming along the water with no care in the world. 

And for a moment, you felt free. 

“Do you think they feel pain?” you blurted out. 

Pedro gave you a small glance before looking back over at the view in front of him. This was the first time all day you had asked him something, he wanted to jump for joy but withheld his glee, “hard to say,” he began. “I think every living creature feels some sort of pain.” You hummed in response. “Do you think they do?” 

You let out a small breath, thinking back to being a fish, feeling free. “No,” you answered. 

Pedro felt his heart sink, he had to say something to keep this conversation alive. Anything just to keep you talking, “Why do you think that?” 

There was a little girl beside you, you could hear her laughing alongside who you’d assume was her father. You hated the feeling it brought you, that gut-wrenching feeling in the pit of your stomach. Why couldn’t that be you? You tuned Pedro back in, “Dunno,” you responded with a shrug. 

Pedro let out a sigh. You both stood there watching the fishes come and go, “What’s your favorite fish?” Pedro asked. He was feeling a little desperate, he wanted to talk to you, to get to know you. 

But you, on the other hand, wanted to keep your distance. You didn’t want what talking could lead to. You didn’t want the attachment, mostly because you didn’t know how long he would be around. Was he just around until he got bored and then he’d leave you and your mother? You shrugged, “Clownfish,” you responded with the only fish that came to your mind. 

“Clownfish?” You gave him a nod. “Mine is a Sting Ray.” 

“They killed Steve Irwin,” you commented as you began to walk away, ready to see what else the aquarium had to show. 

Pedro sighed, “Yeah, they did.” The both of you remained quiet as you walked from one part of the aquarium to the other. You watched as seals did little tricks underwater and the penguins wobbled their way into the water. It was all fascinating. “I was thinking maybe we could grab something from the harbor while we’re here?” Pedro says as he follows you into the Jellyfish exhibit. 

 You gave him a nod, “alright.” 

“Okay and then it’s up to you if you want to go home after or do something else,” he suggested. 

“I’m fine with going home after that.” 

Pedro knew this wasn’t easy for you. It wasn’t easy for your mother either. He had stayed up with her in the late hours, listening to her cry over the phone, giving her a listening ear when she really needed a shoulder to cry on. It was the best he could do in his situation. 

Your mother only told Pedro a small percentage of the past, mostly stuff that she was able to tell without becoming a sobbing mess. Your father left when you were two and manipulated his way back only a year later. He abused and neglected the two of you until you were eight when your mother was able to find a way out of his controlling hands. 

The times Pedro stayed up late with your mother were the times she called him in the middle of the night, after a vivid nightmare that felt more like a memory. She would explain how your father would throw her against the wall during a heated argument or how there were times he’d threatened her with a kitchen knife. Pedro hated listening to it, he hated hearing the heartbreak in her voice as she broke down with a new detail. He hated all of it. 

Most of all, he hated how even though he didn’t know her then, all he wished he could was protect her. Something that was impossible then but isn’t now. 

“Alright,” Pedro muttered. His eyes never leave you, wondering how to bring down those walls with each brick, slowly enough for you to trust him. Enough for him to show you how a father is supposed to love. Pedro was determined to not give up. He just knew it in his heart that this is where he was meant to be, this is where his heart felt like home. 

Your mother never spoke in detail about the abuse you endured. She had tried at times, but it always ended with her in a sobbing mess. She had told Pedro that the abuse had gotten to the point where she knew another hospital visit for you would draw suspicions, shortly after your mother found sanctuary. 

And unbeknownst to Pedro, she found happiness when she met him. “My mom used to take me to the aquarium when I was a kid,” Pedro began. “Usually on the weekends, to the same aquarium and I didn’t care if it was the same exhibit with the same animals. I was just so happy to be there with my mom…” Pedro reminiscent. Pedro understood why you were so guarded and unsure of him. If he were in your position, with all the love he had for his mother, he would do the same. 

You remained quiet, watching as the jellyfish in front of you slowly moved from one side to the other. Your stomach growled causing Pedro to let out a small chuckle. “Hungry?” you gave him a small nod. “We can cut this short and grab a bite if that’s what you want,” he gave you a smile. You nod again, you could see the disappointment appear on his face as he let out a small sigh. You were trying. 

You were trying so hard to let him in, but it was hard. Accepting someone after trauma is hard. 

Accepting that there is someone who has good intentions is hard. 

Acceptance is hard. 

And it’s harder when you are young and you were never given the chance to know what it’s like to live in happiness, to be a kid with a normal childhood. 

The both of you walk back out of the aquarium, you had only been there for three hours, although it felt less. The walk to the harbor was pretty short, Pedro let you choose where to eat and it wasn’t hard for you to find a place right away. 

You both sat down once you had ordered. 

You took your phone out real quick to check the notifications you had gotten over the past three hours. 

“You like Star Wars?” Pedro asked, you gave him a confused look as he gestured toward the back of your phone. You turned your phone around. 

“Oh,” you realized he was talking about the Star Wars sticker you had on your case. “Yeah,” you responded. 

“Me too, I mean, it’d be kind of hard to be the Mandalorian and not like Star Wars,” he chuckled. “Who’s your favorite character?” 

You shrugged, “Dunno.” You looked up at him, noticing his furrowed eyebrows as he glanced down. “R2-D2, I guess?” 

He glanced back up at you, a smile on his face, “That’s understandable.” The food arrived not long after, and the both of you ate in silence. You were glad that you had chosen a table outside so that the sound of the waves clashing with the shore could drown out the silence. 

Once the two of you were done eating it was time to head back to the car. No words were spoken still and you wondered if Pedro hated you by now. You weren’t trying to get him to hate you, but you feared that every small response you gave him, gave him more of a reason to hate you. 

You could feel the anxiety creeping its way in. You were ruining something good for your mother for your own selfish needs, you knew you were. Why was it so hard for you to just talk; To have a normal conversation with a man that loves your mother. 

It wasn’t too late, you still had the car ride to make up for the time lost. You both got into the car, Pedro plugged his phone in and began playing where the playlist had left off. 

Say something, you thought to yourself. Anything. You could thank him for bringing you or even talk about what your favorite part was. Maybe that was too much? 

“So,” Pedro began, “What did you think of the aquarium?” He chuckled, “you probably have been there so many times,” he muttered. 

“No,” you responded, “this was actually my first time.” 

Pedro was taken aback by your response, “Oh.” 

“I liked it,” your muttered. Going back to remaining quiet, where you felt comfortable.  

Once you were home, Pedro follows you inside. “You’re both back early!” your mother stated as she got up from the couch. 

“Are we?” Pedro greeted your mother with a kiss on her cheek. 

“I’m gonna go upstairs and finish my homework,” you state as you quickly leave the room. 

Your mother gave you a quick glance as you walked up to your room before looking back over at Pedro, “How’d it go?”

Pedro sighed, “Good, I guess?” 

Your mother sighed, her fear of today's outcome was true, “You guess?” 

Pedro shrugged, making his way outside in fear that you might hear anything. He didn’t want to paint you in a bad light, it wasn’t his intention. “I’m not taking it to heart, Yesenia.” 

“What did she say?” 

“That’s the thing, she didn’t say anything?” Your mother gave him a confused look, “She was quiet and gave the occasional one-word answers. Honestly, I don’t blame her.” 

“I can’t believe this.” 

“Yesenia, it’s okay.” 

“No, it’s not.” 

Pedro sighed, looking at his watch, “Don’t be too hard on her, I get where she’s coming from. I have to go make a couple of calls before work tomorrow morning, let’s have lunch?” 

She nods, “Don’t forget you’re installing my new bookshelf on Wednesday.” Yesenia waves Pedro goodbye as he gets in his car. She waits until he’s out of sight to go back inside. To say she was mad was an understatement, you had given her your word that you’d try to make conversation with him. 

“Y/N!” Your mother called out. 

You came running down the stairs a few seconds later, “Yes?” 

“I need you to explain something to me,” she began. “When you told me the other night that you’d try to make conversation with Pedro and that this whole idea of hanging out with him was a good idea, did you intend to lie to me the whole time?” 

You rolled your eyes, “Mom, I really did try.” 

“That’s not what it sounds like to me.” 

“Mo-” 

“This is the happiest I have been in years, Y/N. Years. The least you could do is make an effort to like the man.” 

“But mo-” 

“If you were just honest with me-” 

“How can I be!? God, I have to tip-toe around you now because of how emotional you are since Dad! I’m sorry if I take my time trusting a man I barely met! I’m not like you, mom!” 

Your mother was taken aback by your response. “You know it has taken me a long time to trust people, to even open my heart up again.” 

You sighed, “I’m sorry, that was a low blow.” 

Your mother shook her head, “I-I can’t even look at your right now.” 

“Mom-” You took a step forward. 

Your mother took a step back, “Go to your room.” 

You didn’t try to fight your mother on this, you knew she needed her space. You walked back up the stairs to your room. Yes, it was a low blow, but you felt like your mother forgot that even though you both were in the same war, you are still fighting different battles. Battles that to this day you were struggling to overcome.

“I can't stand the thought of losing you (y/n)”

Hearing her words made my ears ring. Shoko looked at me differently than usual. I could think it was because this was the one time I was brought to her to be treated with almost fatal wounds that was all right. Her voice came to me once more as I stared up at her from the ice-cold metal table in the treatment room. While I was lying unconscious it made me truly think. Did they think I was like my Nii-chan because of who he was? Was I on thin ice with all my coworkers and friends, even the students because I held the family name Geto? All the thoughts seemed to melt at that moment when I opened my eyes to see her staring back at me but that didn't matter now all I had to focus on was Shoko, not some worries thinking I was bound for death because of my name all I had to think about now was Her. Shoko said again, “I'm serious (y/n), what if Kusakabe didn't get to you in time to bring you back to campus?” I could tell she was worried. I always hated seeing her worry so much about me whenever I was injured.

"But he came in time, didn't he?" I responded, my voice seemed groggy, but it didn't surprise me much, knowing I must have been out cold for a while. Her eyes seemed to bore into me as if it was the first time she had to treat my wounds, as if we had been in school again, a smile wanting to tug at the corners of my mouth as I shifted slightly to sit up. "Still, (y/n), you lost a lot of blood. You're lucky I was able to heal you. But what if I couldn't have? I can't stand the idea of losing you." Her words brought me out of an almost unrealistic thought. She wasn't wrong; I could have died. I would have met the same fate as so many of our friends. "I'm here. I won't die, Sho. I promise I won't leave you, and I'm gonna keep it, 'kay?" I told her, my eyes searching hers as I spoke. Our fingers seemed to entangle as if it meant it was our fate to be destined to be here with one another and not for us to be as far as it had wanted us to be from one another. The silence was comfortable as I sat up, our eyes meeting the moment I was upright, the scent of whiskey and lavender filling my senses. "Sho, y’know I'd never let you stay here alone. You're never getting rid of me," I told her with a smile, earning a small eye roll. "You make it sound like I'd let you die, (y/n).”

I could tell she was serious; I knew she wouldn't let me die, and I'd not let her, even if I had to risk my life. Shoko Ieiri was worth so much more than she wanted to let on; she knew it, and so did I. "Acting as if I'd die anyway," I huffed, almost sounding as if I was Gojo-kun with how dramatic I looked. Even though we both knew dying was a possibility, we knew that came with the title of a jujutsu sorcerer. But even now, it seems like the thought of death scares me. I can't ever be sure about Sho, but it was always stuck in the back of my head, the idea of having to lose her after what happened to Suguru last Christmas. It's only been five or so months since that day, but it still seemed to weigh heavily on us all.

"We both know there might come a day your cockiness won't save you, (y/n). You know I'm right. Now come on, you must be starving," she told me, throwing my uniform coat and catching it a second before it fell, slipping it on as I stood up, a small growl being heard from my stomach. "I heard of a new sushi place nearby, or I'm sure we could order," I responded, unsure which she'd prefer. After god knows how long of monitoring me, I knew she must deserve me paying for her food after causing her that much stress. 

"Sushi sounds alright. Just don't get too much soju this time because you almost passed out in the karaoke room last month," she told me, making me want to shiver at the vague memory of drunkenly singing Mitski songs at the top of my lungs. "It wasn't thaaaat bad. Just blame it on Gojo because he kept daring me to take more shots," I grumbled as we started walking out of her little office.

"Honeyy," I called her, the slight drawl at the end made her tilt her head at me as we stood in the courtyard. "Hm?" she asked, confused, as she locked her door. "You don't think Yaga-sensei will kill me about this, right? Because he was pissed I almost didn't exorcize that curse in a mission from last month," I asked in what seemed like a worried tone.

.

It must have been my anxiety talking, but who knows at this point. Sometimes getting scolded by Yaga felt like our school days again, as if I were fifteen and Shoko was sixteen, hiding out in the infirmary away from the prying eyes of our classmates and underclassmen, just us in the silence of the sterile room. A book in my hand and a cigarette between her lips as we hid out from Satoru and Suguru. After what seemed like ages, she finally spoke.

“I don't think he’ll be mad. From what Kusakabe told me, the mission you got sent on was misregistered. Instead of being a semi-first grade, it was a special grade, and they just decided to send Gojo when you got brought back to campus. (Y/n), you won't get scolded for it when it wasn't your fault,” her response made me feel what seemed like a thousand times better than I had before, and she could tell as she linked her arm with mine.

“Now come on, there's no reason to worry so much. It's not like you'll get fired for something that was out of your control,” she said with a small smile as she patted my arm once. Her touch was comforting.

“You're right, there's nothing to worry about,” my smile seemed to ease us both as we walked down the hall, the small patter of her heels and my shoes echoing as we walked. The comfortable breeze flowed around us as we crossed the courtyard, heading towards the train station not far from campus. Watching Shoko seemed like a dream I never wanted to wake up from, and if it was, I hoped to stay in a deep sleep as long as possible, just to stay by her side. As long as one could yearn for it, I'd let her break and repair my heart, each vessel to her delicate touch I'd grown to know so well, and I'd hope never to lose it in this lifetime or another.

Shoko Ieiri was a sight to behold. If one lost it, I hoped to always find it, instead of it feeling like destiny for me to find her again. She was like a shot of espresso bathed in the winter sky, a rare gem shining in the sunlight. Anyone would be lucky to stand in the spot I am, arms intertwined as we walk to the restaurant.

"Do you ever think we would have been together in other universes, Sho?" I asked as we crossed the road, the Tokyo streets bustling, but everything seemed silent in the small radius of us.

"I have a feeling we would, and we’d be one of those cheesy couples in those rom-coms who have two cats and live in the countryside to get away from the city life," she answered. Her voice was all I wanted to hear for the rest of our days. As long as I was with her, life seemed complete.

Shoko Ieiri, you are a piece of art I hope never hides from the light of day.

Entombed (Part 4)

================================================

REMINDER: I DO NOT OWN JJK OR ANY CHARACTERS OR ART OR ANYTHING. ALSO PLEASE DON'T STEAL ANY OF MY WORKS. THAT'S JUST RUDE. :)

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Nothing this chapter, maybe a tiny bit of fluff here.

================================================

It was the day after your release from the infirmary and it seemed everyone was being extra cautious around you with the exceptions of Gojo and Nanami. Who had informed everyone that morning during class that you were completely harmless, though Megumi and Itadori still seemed a bit skittish to give you any pats or even the high fives they normally gave. Nobara was the complete opposite to your surprise, she simply asked. "If I pass you my phone to show you a picture of this cute guy are you gonna break it or fry it or something?" When you told her no, she shoved it into your hands and began scrolling for you making faces and squealing about shirtless men. Making the boys grimace and roll their eyes. After all the mess of the last few days, being in class and feeling the slight normalcy again helped heal the blow you took to your wounded resolve, but Nanami's words ran through your mind. This was serious, and you had to learn to be better. You had to get stronger, and this was how you were going to do it. You were going to go all in.

Before class let out for the day Gojo clapped his hands excitedly. "REMEMBER EVERYONE SUSHI TONIGHT!" Nanami just stood stoic as ever but continued for Gojo, as if to stop Gojo from being more eccentric. "We are celebrating Y/n making a full recovery. We're going to Sushi-Go here in Tokyo." Nobara squealed in delight and Itadori high fived Gojo. "YOU ROCK SENSEI!" Namami just stood against the wall nodding in your direction. " Everyone be ready to leave at 5:00 by the front of the school. Ijichi will be driving us. Dismissed."

Gathering your bags Nobara chatted excitedly about getting sushi and how the guy in the forth picture she showed you had rock hard abs that she'd like to, as she put; "Ride off into the sunset with." Then winked making you burst out laughing and turn red. "Good god woman you're absolutely feral!" You teased. Nobara stuck her tongue out. "In our line of work is it so bad? I could die any day and If I had the opportunity I'd take it in a heart beat, and I mean really take it." Winking at you again, all you could do is laugh.

"Have I ever told you, I love your sense of humor Nobara?"

"That's why we're friends and by the way." She turned and pointed her finger into your chest. " You still owe me a shopping trip. Don't think your little stint in the infirmary made me forget." Making your way to the door you groaned.

"I didn't go to the infirmary on purpose! I literally almost died." you whined. "Yeah, yeah, you burned something with your hand and got stabbed in the arms and blacked out. We almost die all the time. WE'RE GOING THIS WEEKEND Y/N! You're not gonna be on a mission for a while from what I hear so you won't have that excuse not to go next time." Stomping her foot and smiling victoriously. "It wasn't an excuse I literally--"

"Y/n" You heard next to you. Stopping your little jesting with Nobara you realized it was Nanami that was calling to you. "Yes, Sensei?" You straightened up, facing him. "I'd like a moment with you, if you could." His gaze shifting over to Nobara. "In private."

Nobara looked a little irritated but then she smiled and simply said. "I'll see you after you're done. We'll get ready together." and walked off with Itadori and Megumi. After they were out of sight Nanami walked you to a set of doors and gestured for you to go inside, walking in you noticed that this room guessed was the faculty lounge.

"Take a seat."

You did as instructed and took a seat on a long comfy looking green couch that took most of the room. Nanami sat across from you and began to speak. "I hope you've taken my words to heart Y/N. You seem calmer today. How are your hands? How is your mind after everything? You didn't really say yesterday in what way you were feeling. This whole situation was a mess but I wanted to hear from you, what you're feeling about your training. Are you going to continue or are you still feeling unsure?"

It was nice to know Nanami cared enough to check in with you; you were his responsibility as a student you knew that but, for some reason it really warmed you.

"I haven't had any issues with my hands at all and believe me I went around touching things for almost all of yesterday. I think I'm good there, and I think Gojo was right. It's got to be something mental. As for continuing my training, I don't think I have a choice. I thought about it and I realized that even if I do leave, I'll never forget. The curses won't go away and I don't want to be afraid forever. I'd never forget what I know and I want to get stronger. This whole experience just showed me how weak I am, I want to go on."

Nanami's seemed to relax a tad more.

"I'm happy to hear that Y/n. I know everything is up in the air right now with your technique but there really is no better place to learn. Regardless of Gojo's lack of tacked. He was right." You thought for a moment you saw Nanami shutter. "Never let Gojo know I said that."

A small chuckle escaped your lips. "You're secret is safe with me."

"Good, we'll work slowly and figure out what we can about your technique. You'll be taken from your usual lessons and paired with myself or Gojo for your own personal training. Rest assured, Gojo won't be pulling anymore antics, at least not for a while." Taking a long sigh you realized this wouldn't be the last of Gojo's antics which to be honest amused you.

"This whole new life is expect the unexpected. I learned that the hard way but it's a way to learn. Plus who knows, maybe one day I'll be able to see through Gojo's antics myself." Nanami smiled slightly.

"That's a good way to look at it y/n." Reaching into his jacket Nanami pulled out a small box and set it on the table in front of you.

"But regardless of Gojo's antics I still felt it right to give you a proper apology on my end. So please take this as a token of my sincerity and know going forward, I'll make sure not to but you in a compromising position again." You took a look at the small box in front of you caught off guard by such a kind gesture. Nanami was always so stoic so this was really surprising to you.

"Sensei you really didn't need to, I don't even blame you. There's nothing to forgive."

Everything he said, you understood. If you were Nanami and some strange new sorcerer came in with some power that was unknown, you'd be curious too. At least that's what you thought to yourself.

"But I'll say thank you Sensei and I forgive you. Just next time, let's hope things aren't so lethal." you teased and took the box and went to open it. Opening the box you saw inside was a small charm. It was strange looking wrapped in black fabric. Being completely honest with yourself, you had no idea what it was and felt immediately embarrassed for not knowing. "Thank you....what is it?"

Nanami just nodded and took it from you to examine it with you. "See here" Nanami pointed to the text. "It reads Yakuyoke. It means to ward against evil. I don't believe in silly things like this personally, and it won't do anything for you on the battlefield, but I thought it might help having something like this with you."

It was extremely thoughtful and to be honest, even if it was just a piece of fabric with some text it made you feel better, maybe not safer. but better. You'd be lying if you said it didn't give you a lump in your throat. "Th-Thank you Sensei. I'll cherish it." You took the charm and slid it into your pocket.

"That's all for now Y/n, But remember. Once we start training again. Give it your all. Take this experience and use it to make yourself better. If anything, use the charm as a reminder." Nodding, stood and you bowed to your Sensei and departed.

Nanami stayed seated smiling to himself. Things felt like they were on a good note for now, and that's all he could ask for going forward. Giving you that charm would do absolutely nothing for you on the battlefield, but maybe it would help the uneasiness in your mind. Your spirits were good and he was happy for that, but Nanami was no fool. There would be a next time, there would be more death. More anguish....

Sighing at his own depressing thoughts he sat himself up almost ready to leave his seat when the doors opened and in trotted Gojo, hands in his pockets making his way to the couch. Sitting across from Nanami, "That was cute."

"You heard our conversation?" Nanami questioned.

"That charm won't save her in battle."

"No, it won't. If you were listening I told her as such but maybe it'll help the battles in her mind. Knowing that we are here."

"So, What made you get her a gift?" Gojo prodded.

"She's my student and she was hurt due to my negligence."

"You've never felt compelled to get anyone anything unless it was forced Nanami. You felt sorry for her."

"I did. Maybe even a bit guilty too."

Gojo stretched on the couch and mumbled. "Yeah me too. I mean Itadori's first mission was a disaster but he knew at least somewhat to expect. His first curse was with Megumi and he even has Suku-" stopping in his tracts. Gojo shot up from his relaxed position. "Does Y/N know about Sukuna?"

"No." Nanami realized. "Sukuna hasn't manifested himself on Itadori in front of her yet."

"I wonder why, he's not usually silent around anyone." Gojo pondered. Then remembered your black markings..

"Nanami do you still have that picture on your phone?" Nanami nodded and passed his phone to him. Scrolling Gojo found the picture of your unconscious body again and examined it.

"Nanami.. These markings remind you of someone?" Nanami took another look and grimaced. "How come this situation feels like it just got a whole lot more complicated." Sighing Nanami began to massage the bridge of his nose, dropping his phone on the table.

===============================================

Gojo had heard your conversation with Nanami. He was a little irritated to be honest. He and Nanami had thought of the same thing. Getting you gift, Gojo was just going to get you a card with some money in it. He didn't know you that well and money always worked with women and god knows he had enough of it. But seeing your reaction to Nanami's gift. He wanted to get you a better one. Nanami got you a gift that touched you, maybe Gojo could think of something just as good. He went ahead into the city to try to find something but as he searched he was still plagued with the sudden revelation he and Nanami deduced. Well, mostly him. He'd give Nanami assist points. This situation had taken a very unexpected turn, but as you said in your conversation with Nanami. "Expect the unexpected"

"What a curious one you are.." He thought of you. During the time you were in the infirmary he could tell you had been depressed, even shaken. He wondered even to himself while you were there if you were just going to bow out and quit your training. It wouldn't have been smart knowing how curses were. If you did leave you'd probably die. So Gojo had secretly been hoping you'd just pull through it and when you did it was a relief to him. You'd spent all that time training with him, failing miserably. But you were trying. He hated to admit it, but if you decided to leave he would feel a little bummed out.

Regardless, He had to find you a gift and all this thinking was making his headhurt.

"Urgh." He groaned and decided to treat himself to some ice cream before dinner for all the trouble this was causing him. On his way to his favorite ice cream shop something shiny caught his eye.

"No way!" He laughed. A small stand with numerous small pieces of homemade jewelry caught his eye, one piece in particular. Examining it he smiled big. "This'll be perfect."

===============================================

Everyone arrived to the restaurant on time thanks to Nanami's direction and everyone was enjoying their dinner.

"SAKE!" Gojo cheered grabbing a large piece of sushi and stuffing his face.

"No. This is a student dinner." Nanami sighed and placed his napkin on his lap before taking a bite of his food.

"You're no fun! This is to celebrate Y/n! We should party?! Have fun!" Gojo whined.

"I'm having fun and the sushi is great." You smiled brightly towards Gojo and took a bite of your sushi. Nobara was eating to fast y/n couldn't tell how many pieces she'd eaten.

"I love this restaurant!" She said in between bites. Itadori was laughing at Nobara's feral eating and Megumi just sat eating his sushi quietly.

For Gojo, this party was too tame but decided it was the perfect time to liven it up a bit.

"EHEM." Gojo clapped his hands together. "Attention my precious students and Nanami."

Everyone stopped eating and turned their attention to Gojo who quickly made his way to your seat. Coughing to clear his throat he began,

"In honor of Y/n living through her first fight with a curse and living through the complete utter ass beating you got from it. I got you a present!" Smiling widely Gojo shoved a small box into your hands.

Nanami raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you the reason she got into such terrible shape in the first place?"

Gojo just waved Nanami away. "Nonsense, that's all in the past now. Like Y/n said she doesn't blame anybody and she'll be able to tell my antics sooner or later right?"

You flushed red. "You heard my conversation with Nana-"

"Just open the gift." Gojo poked you and you swatted his poking finger.

"Okay okay! Thank you Sensei." Nobara, Itadori, Nanami, and Megumi all watched you unwrap the paper around the box. Gojo stood over you proudly waiting for your reaction. Discarding the wrapping paper you opened the box.

With one glance you burst into laughter and turned the box around to show the others. With the sight Itadori, Nobara, even Megumi began to laugh uncontrollably. Even Nanami couldn't help but chuckle. Inside the box was a necklace with a small charm, and that charm was a frying pan.

Dear Diary,

My dad pressured me the other day about career/school, because I don’t know what I want to do after school. He wants me to go to some sort of technical school or I dunno, get some sort of education so I’m not stuck making minimum wage. But no field really sounds good to me. Everything, all of my options just sound miserable. I’m scared to even find a career in writing or art because I know people will have expectations for me and when that happens I’m stuck fearing that I won’t satisfy anyone. I’m not really a magic machine that can write and or create the best piece of fiction ever out of thin air. I mean I guess that’s sort of how it works, but on short notice I should say. Everything that comes to me just comes to me on its own, and I take forever to actually get it down on paper. I’m not even anywhere near done my novel that I started like 2 months ago.

In other news, my mom bought a house (well it’s more of a mortgage), and it’s going to be ready to be moved into soon. It has 3 bedrooms, one for me, my brother, and my mom (and unfortunately my ex-step dad that she got back together with for some fucking reason. God I hate that guy). My mom wants me to move back in with her and be a family again. Though she wants me to graduate high school where I’m at currently and then make the choice to come live with her. Now here is the problem, my dad is quite unaware of all of this and telling him is going to cause arguments and other discourse I don’t really wanna deal with.

My aunt told me I should do whatever I want, and not worry about pleasing or hurting others. And I think it’s something I’m gonna do. I need my own space, and it lets me live somewhere more free, and much closer to work. Where my dad lives, is quite literally out in the desert in the middle of nowhere. There’s no opportunity here, there’s no work, there’s nothing. I don’t know how I’m supposed to do anything here.

I was looking at comments on an Instagram reel about people getting rejected from jobs. Like Walmart and food jobs. The basic crap. It kind of started stressing me out. I don’t plan to go to college and I don’t know what I’m going to do for money when I leave this place. I have no idea what I’m doing I’ll be honest. And I’m scared I’ll never really make enough to keep myself afloat. There’s nothing at college I even want. And the ONE thing I’m passionate about, fucking jay told me she wants to go to college and get a degree in. Ugh. Fucking great.

I’ve been having nightmares about jay. I had about 4 in a row almost. In one of them I remember driving away and driving and driving until I reached this little food area in the middle of nowhere. It had a sushi restaurant right next to a Mexican restaurant. Really weird but I stopped by and went into the Mexican restaurant. Things were peaceful for a good few minutes I think until I saw jay roll up with her stupid friends. They were going to head into the sushi restaurant but she noticed me sitting at the Mexican restaurant and decided to come in. She walked up to me and I just lost it. I grabbed her by the hair and threw her on the floor, and I started slamming her face onto the tile floor. But she wouldn’t react to it. It was if it wasn’t even hurting her. It started freaking me out and I think screamed for her to shut up because she wouldn’t stop talking. I kept slamming her head into the floor until I guess I got tired and stopped. I don’t remember how to dream ends but it was so freaky. I wanted her to stay down. She wouldn’t.

I don’t wanna see her face at school. She’s dead to me now but, I’d probably just get so angry. I’m so stressed. In other news I got a new friend group and they live really close by. Remember that boy I met at the fair in real life? He let me join his friend group and it’s been great. We voice chat together and play video games together and they make me feel included. They ask me questions, joke with me, ask for my opinion on stuff, they share stuff with me. They just make me feel like I’ve always been apart of their group. My friends at school never did that. I’ve only been hanging out with my new friends for like over a week and already it’s been a better experience than my stupid fake friend group at school.

“If you thought you could get by this year without me noticing your birthday, you’re way too late for that!” Ever since he found out, Seiji always made sure to try and do something nice for Tohru every year. If his parents wouldn’t do so much as celebrate their kid’s birthday, then it was up to the friend to do something.

And he wanted to do something nice for the first best friend he ever had.

“You know that sushi restaurant in Ginza? Well, that’s where we’re going tonight!” If not for his background as a Shirogane, he wouldn’t have dreamed of stepping foot into Ginza, but Dad had approved. Besides, he’d seen high schoolers waltz up to this restaurant numerous times. Helped that this one was one of the more affordable, if a bit pricier ones. “We only live once, so don’t hold back. Pick whatever you want to eat!”

adachi's birthday

"I try to make you forget, but you're too dedicated to make sure I'm not a wet blanket that you'll take any excuse to make me do fun stuff."

Typical of Tohru's dry sense of humor, but the smile that he gives when Seiji eagerly invites him out betrays any sense of regret he might be pretending to have. Tohru's opened up a lot since befriending the young detective, even he had to admit it. If himself a year or two ago had seen him now, he would have been appalled, but he had to admit, it was nice getting to enjoy his youth instead of spending it all studying.

His gift being a dinner at a nice sushi restaurant in Ginza makes the teenager's eyes widen. His family wasn't lacking in funds, but they all never went out to eat in a restaurant together, and he really only had with Seiji. And since he wasn't used to it, every time it had surprised him.

He wants to protest, say it was too much money, but he knows Seiji would push it until they did it.

"I guess some eel roll does sound pretty good..." he concedes, a little shyly, but then smiles again and elbows his best friend. "It's still sappy of you to do it for me, you know. But if you're gonna be nice to me on my birthday... we should go see a movie afterward! There's a new spy flick out, and I'm sure it counts as future Shirogane detective training."

Life goes on right?

Everyone is going through something right now.

I'm doing my best to practice patience. It is not easy.

Also why does something major always happen to me after I leave my therapist. Dude she's lucky I don't have her phone number because I would blow that up.

I overreacted yesterday. I'm not a fan of all of this unplanned change, and it's fine for me to be upset about everything. But I lost it, said it was all too much. Said I want to be put in a coma.

Said I give up. Then I texted R and I also decided to text my cousin who just had a baby and my friend A who I haven't spoken to in about three years.

R and I are trying to hangout again.

He's the best. I suggested swimming and then we should just get food. He seemed pretty stoked about going to the pool together. But now I'm so anxious about him seeing my body.

He pulled me to the side and said you know we are still gonna hangout that won't change. And I said no I don't know that. 🥺

Then he said stop being silly. I'm still gonna miss him.

Then A texted me back and we made plans to get sushi for dinner together but she had to cancel. It's okay we can reschedule.

And again I feel a lil defeated.

Everything sucks.

But I need to just keep going. I need to stay working at my current job. I'm gonna leave hopefully within a year so why further complicate my life with unemployment? I love my boss and I'm gonna miss her and all my coworkers she's taking with her.

I'm honestly upset that I wasn't included, but not surprised. Favoritism sucks. She could've given me a heads up, but she didn't. The new boss is someone who used to be my boss at another store. I ditched that store because of her and now she's my boss again.

To be honest I never had huge personal issues with her, but that store was hell and she was in charge so to me she was basically satan.

At this store it's so chill. So maybe she will be different, I know I've changed a lot in five years. So I'm finally now realizing I should give her a chance. But I'm not going to give her more than that, and I think my instinct was to quit immediately because now I have to hold myself accountable. And I have to redevelop a relationship with her as my boss. I'm also not gonna work hard at work. I don't think I even wanna socialize with whoever my new coworkers are.

May I end up regretting this? Hah. Maybe.

[cellythefloshie]

I’m gonna tell you the story of a guy from one of my friend groups in college pretending to have a group get together to take me out on a date.

So, one of my old friends messaged me asking if she could pass on my number to him because he wanted to have a meet up after not seeing each other in like 6/7 years. Of course, I said sure. Next day he messages me and sets up a day and time and we’re gonna meet at a local bookstore beforehand (my suggestion because I actually needed to buy gifts there lol).

So, day comes and I get there and we find each other and I ask “who else is coming?” He awkwardly says “no one. I thought you knew it was just you and me.” Cue awkward silence and I just said “oh okay”. So I buy the books I’m gifting and check out eventually while casually chatting. Afterwards, he hands me the book he bought and it’s about living with adhd (which I’d been recently diagnosed with and had mentioned to him) 🙃. We grab drinks at the ramen place next door because we still had time before our dinner reservation.

I can tell he’s trying to flirt while I continue to act like a friend. Eventually, we head to the place with the reservation, and he asks “you like sushi right?” Me “um no I dont actually.” Him “you sure? I thought you said something once about like sushi” READERS I’ve always disliked sushi. I’ve tried almost every type. It’s not my thing.

We get there and they ask if he still wants omakase (chef’s choice type thing and it’s insanely expensive) and says no to them. They kind a look relieved lol. By this point, I was just in it for the free food and drinks. I’m not into him that way AT ALL. I end up getting another drink and delicious $38 chicken katsu. This idiot gets a PLATTER for like 4 people for himself. I think the waitress knew that it was date gone wrong.

Eventually towards the end of this very awkward date, he asks for to-go boxes for his sushi which he GIVES TO ME for whatever reason. As we’re leaving the restaurant, he asks if I want to go canoeing a month from then and I make up an excuse that my friends kiddos 2nd birthday is that day (it actually was like 2 weeks prior lmao). He asks if I want him to drive me home and I make up the funniest excuse that my friends want to go out and I need to go to Trader Joe’s across the street for pickles. We end up going our separate ways, and I run across the street, walk through TJs to the other entrance and throw away all the sushi in the trash before heading home and having a big ass glass of wine. At least I got $30 of drinks and $38 chicken katsu out of it.

After I told my parents, my dad “atta girl”-ed me for staying for the free food and drinks lmao. The guy texted me like later that night saying I should come over soon because his mom likes gardening too. I’ve ghosted and blocked him. I confirmed with the original friend that she had no idea he was gonna do that and I believe her.

I went to the ramen place again recently to make nice memories to override the date memories. And I told the bartender and waitress the story, and they were dying laughing. They said where we sat is where a lot of dates sit, and they’ve seen people walk out on dates lmao.

But yeah, hope you enjoyed the abridged version of the worst date I’ve ever been on. Don’t surprise people with dates.

Sleepover Saturday

I can't believe someone put you through that! It's absolutely ridiculous the lengths men will go to avoid rejection. And he obviously was a bad listener! I would have blocked him too!

Update because I suck

Why haven't I written anything? IDK. I want to start doing this again so I will try once more. I've started organising my research notes into weekly journals rather than daily (Obsidian is so good); I will try to summarise the week every Friday.

Today I will just provide an update to things.

Research is going okay. I think right now I've got enough to write a paper. Above is a video of the fronts (it's very high-resolution). I think I've explained what it's showing before, the black lines are the temperature contours, the blue and orange lines are the stream-function, they show the flow direction (and distance between the lines show flow speed) in the z-x plane. The heatmap is the vertical vorticity, for an average here that's just the change in the x direction of the along front (y direction) flow.

A shitty edit in paint of a diagram from Nature just to show the directions. The video is an average over the y direction of an "ideal" filament. We are interested in the mechanisms by which the filament evolves, particularly what the evolution of the horizontal gradient of temperature that defines it looks like. It's important for the resulting vertical transport of heat, momentum and chemicals, etc. The ocean components of full climate models (i.e. the whole Earth) are reaching horizontal resolutions of about 10km (largely thanks to the GPU), which is the typical size of these structures, so they represent the "biggest thing that the models can't model" and good parametrisations for them are important.

I will explain more in my update tomorrow, but I think I've reached the end of this line of attack that I'm doing right now, and hopefully can put together a draft paper before the year ends. Next I want to work on more realistic simulations than the kind of ideal stuff that I do.

I'm going to a conference in February, presenting a poster. It's exciting but I'm very nervous of course.

For me myself life is going well I think. I've got a new bike because the old one was a bit temporary. I still have it and keep it in my office, perhaps for emergencies. I got some kind of award recently. A whole $5k. Was pretty nice. I saved most of it but I just bought a new Surface Pro because mine was from 2017 and was the cheapest model. It was nice just to splurge on a computer I've never done that.

Unfortunately I had to also buy a new phone recently because mine (also from 2017, a release OnePlus 3t) kicked it. I got a Pixel 6a. I was very happy but then Black Friday happened and it became $200 off (I paid $500) so I feel bad lol.

I had some BANGING sushi last week. I went the first time because it was a free meal due to a department thing, and then immediately changed plans with someone to go to the restaurant instead two days later; we were gonna get sushi, but at a cheaper place (dw I paid). It was sooo good yum. First time I went I got a roll (and loads of takoyaki and alcohol because it was free), but with the friend we each got this special nigiri set. HOW do they do it. Like you know it's just raw salmon or whatever but it just tastes so good. Power of freshness I guess.

I'm going back to the UK over Christmas. I'm excited. I didn't go last year so it's been 1 year 3 months and 7 days since I last had a Greggs sausage roll (shocking). I bought some bottles on Aliexpress and hopefully they get here on time, I want to fill them with maple syrup and give them out to people I see. I'm staying in London for a day to see some friends then going home. It's going to be the unhealthiest two weeks of my life I'm gonna eat and drink so much. I really miss making cocktails. I can't really do it here because I just can't justify buying all the stuff, I never have friends over and my roommate doesn't drink. Looking forward to seeing my uni friends again, it's been a long time.

When Oscar met Y/n, the only thoughts in his mind were how funny she was, how everyone in the paddock loved her, and how beautiful she was. He wasn’t sure if he was experiencing a crush or a heart attack with the way his heart was beating out of his chest when he asked for her number.

Y/n gladly gave him her number, knowing she would probably be hanging out with him again soon. Lando had invited Oscar to stay with them during break, which was right after this race.

Of course Oscar was excited to hangout with Lando and Max, and he knew Carlos, Pierre, and Charles would probably come over at some point as well. But he usually kept to himself, something Y/n seemed to do, but not with her friends. She easily got along with the paddock, though. Joking with Oscar and Landos engineers, getting food with Oscar, Lando, Max, and being joined by Zak Brown.

Oscar didn’t expect Lando to barge into his drivers room after Qualifying though. He had just sat down and was drinking his water when Lando opened the door, where he could see Max and Y/n walk by, probably to the cafe.

“So…when are you going to ask her out?” Lando asked, after he had closed Oscars door and stood infront of him.

“Who?…” Oscar picked at his fingernails, even though he knew exactly who Lando was talking about. “Y/n, you muppet. When are you gonna ask her out?”

“I don’t think I will, Lando. She doesn’t even know me.” he brushed his hands through his hair, making eye contact with Lando.

“Maybe. But if you ask her out, then you guys can get to know each other. Come on, mate. She’s been single for two years now, all of her past boyfriends were dicks to her, and you’re a good bloak. Max and I approve.”

Oscars head snapped at Lando, “You guys approve, do you? Have you guys been talking about this?”

“A bit. Listen, get changed. Put a nice shirt on and meet us in the cafe. Max and Y/n are already ready. Us four are going to get dinner. Hurry up.” Lando said, leaving before Oscar could even reply.

Surprised, and a little excited, Oscar got changed and met you guys in the cafe. He saw you, sitting next to Max and Lando as Max called Pietra, and Lando scrolled through Instagram. You made eye contact with Oscar, getting up and waving him over as Lando noticed, smirking at Oscar.

“Hey, Oscar! You ready to go?” you bit your lip, just out of pure habit, making Oscar look and nod, “Yeah. Are we gonna meet there..?”

“Oh, about that, mate. Can you take Y/n and I’ll take Max? Just easier transportation that way.” Lando said, smirking again so Y/n couldn’t see, but Oscar could see perfectly.

Y/n smiled at Oscar, unaware of Landos planning. Y/n did find Oscar cute, maybe that wasn’t a good idea to tell Pietra. She swore she wouldn’t tell her boyfriend, but the thought of her best friend with a good guy and happy, she couldn’t resist telling her boyfriend when he asked, having his own suspicions when he caught Y/n watching Oscars race pov one sunday.

She wanted to get to know Oscar better, as he did her. “Yeah, that’s fine. You wanna just send me the address?” Oscar asked, pulling his phone out for when Lando sent it.

“Mate, we are just gonna go to our house. Y/n obviously knows the address. We’re gonna watch 22 Jump Street and order Chinese takeout.” Lando got up with Max and said their byes to Y/n. Max making kiss faces behind Y/n and Lando winking.

“Ready?” Y/n asked, grabbing her bag. “Yeah…” The two of them left the paddock together, occasionally getting stopped by fans for pictures, and Netflix to film Oscar leaving after Qualifying.

As they got to Oscars car, he opened the passenger door for her, closing it when she got in. He threw his bag in the backseat, and started the car up. “You wanna put your bag in the backseat?” Oscar asked, reversing out of his spot. “Hm? Oh, sure.” She placed it on the floor in the back and he played some music, light conversation about her school floating around.

“Wait, so you’re studying art history then?” Oscar asked her as he drove to her house.

“Mhm. It’s actually really interesting.” Y/n looked at Oscar, making quick eye contact as he nodded and looked back to the road.

“Do you like it? You seem more like you’re into the history aspect than the art.”

“How did you know that?” she questioned, raising an eyebrow. “I saw you earlier on your laptop looking at an article.” Oscar shrugged.

“I do enjoy the art aspect though! I don’t know what I’m going to do with my degree but, I enjoy it. Its better than accounting.” Y/n sighed as Oscar laughed a bit, “Not a math fan, I take it?”

“I’m horrible.” she deadpanned, making Oscar laugh more, her joining in. The rest of the ride was filled with general conversation. Not much needed to be said between them. They had a mutual love for quite, and they didn’t find it uncomfortable. If anything, it was comforting. The slight music in the back, the only other noise being his car.

When they got to the house, Lando and Max were unpacking the food, as Y/n had texted hers and Oscars order in the car. Glances between the two were common throughout dinner, back and forth, and flirting done by Oscar.

Annoyed by the lack of flirting by Y/n, Lando grabbed Max and dragged him out of the room, leaving the two introverts alone.

“They aren’t going to talk if we aren’t there, mate. Y/n is too shy.” Max said, cracking his neck as Lando glared at him. “They’ll talk. They have to. Did you see the way Y/n stared at him as he unwrapped chopsticks?? My god, she’s so touch deprived. I’m rooting for them.”

“Yeah, I know. Hopefully Oscar speaks up, cause Y/n could go days without talking.” Max spoke, looking at Lando as he had his ear against the bedroom door and heard talking, “Mate! Oscars talking to her- oh wait! I heard her too!”

“You’re being a little creepy….move over.” Lando scoffed at Maxs comment, scooting over to Max could listen as well.

Out in the living room, Oscar had turned the tv down so he could talk to Y/n. They ended up having a long conversation, during which he asked her on a date, which caused her mouth to open a bit, nod, and say yes. “I’d love to, Oscar.” Which caused him to smile at his spring roll.

More happy memories to fight the depressy, help ground me in the future, and maybe help vs splitting in the future if I’m lucky

Dante was super excited to see me for the first time in like 4 months :D

Getting my first client was suuuuper validating and awesome

BSG Invitational :3 (though prob not gonna do it)

Started getting sushi with the mumsy again

May have another option of a place to move to at the end of summer :3 CSC goes well - a tiny bit over 25% through, then I can work for a bank while still doing my thing on the side.

Crossed Karaoke off my list of things to do ~ person aced a lot of songs since her voice is remarkable, she also complimented my hair&beard - new to her since we haven’t hung out in forever. So that was validating too ~

Dante offered me some of his food :)

Adam. Just Adam. ^_^

Some people hit me up to be homies :D :D :D

Invited more people I stressy-depressy kicked out of my life and a lot came back. Bunch of em were even concerned for me when I apologized for the stressy-depressy removal.

One of the monog people that said “they’d turn me” (huge red flag I know) started showing a bunch of poly-like mentality. Obviously still not gonna date this person, but it’s neat anyways :)

I told an ex that though I’d like to be close to her again, I had absolutely no intention of ever dating her again, and she took it pretty well. We’re talking still, we went to the Canada Day thing together, it seems like she might end up a relatively close friend :)

Uncle is visiting from overseas - will be staying here at the end of the month // before going back

There’s only been one “This week on immoral shit Gary does” in the last few weeks. (I actually think it’s been a month but I haven’t double checked the timestamps). I might need to change my saying about it :3 D&D is scheduled to happen soontimes for the first time in. . . . I kind of want to say like half a year?

Friends coming out party next month :D 

A friend/fam friend hit me up about waving the cover for a concert which was super cool of them to do ~ tho I ended up finalizing plans for Karaoke w/ the bois instead ^^; There’s also another concert next month :D but... that’s the coming out party xDDD

I missed my escape artist and my lil dumbass again but I made them the background to my phone and now it feels much better and I’m thinking about betraying some values I have regarding having pets ^^;

Bunch of new friends from dating apps ~ play partners if I ever get back into kink

Thomas and Friends: Tales from Sodor (Story 25): The Matsue Storm

Narrator: The Matsue Storm

Scene opens to the 6 Engines and Hiro, all at Matsue in Japan, as it was raining

Narrator: It was raining heavily in Matsue in Japan, everywhere is wet, wet, and wet

Thomas: Oh my, this weather may have caused the Rail Ferry to be delayed

Rosie: We'll never see our friends back home on Sodor

Percy: Yeah, everyone is waiting for us, Edward, Henry, Gordon, Toby, Mavis, BoCo, Philip, Duck, Oliver, Stanley, and everyone else, evenly Sir Topham Hatt

James: I hope this storm blows over soon

Emily: I agree

Molly: Me too

Hiro: Don't worry my friends, it'll blow over soon, but for now, I have to inspect the tracks to see any fallen trees *he blew his whistle and puffs off to inspect*

Thomas: Take care Hiro

Scene transitions to Hiro, puffing through the Countryside of Matsue, as it still rained

Narrator: As Hiro was inspecting the trees, he sees none on the track

Hiro: So far, so good

Hiro puffed onto an old stone bridge, once he puffed onto the bridge, he heard a splash

Hiro: What was that?

One of the Keystones came lose and splashed into the water, then another splashed

Hiro: Oh no! I got to reverse *he reverses back to safety*

Narrator: Then there was danger

Lighting struck a tree, and it crashed onto the bridge, stranding Hiro on the Bridge, with no way to puff backwards

Hiro: Oh my! My chance to puffing back to safety!

Narrator: Just then, Hiro heard a familiar whistle

A whistle was heard

Hiro: That sounds like *sees Thomas* Thomas!

Thomas: *puffing up to Hiro* Are you alright Hiro?!

Hiro: Yes Thomas, but we need to get off this bridge, it's starting crumble

Thomas: Don't worry Hiro, I'll get you off this bridge *he was coupled up to Hiro, and began to puff backwards*

Hiro: Thank you Thomas, you are such a good friend, since the day you saved me from Spencer

Thomas: *chuckled* Yeah, like the day we met

Just as Thomas was nearly off the bridge with Hiro, the bridge crumbled more

Hiro: *shocked* Oh no! Hurry Thomas!

Thomas: Cinders and Ashes! *he puffs backwards as he pulled Hiro*

Just as they nearly off the bridge, Hiro's Tender was dangling over the water

Hiro: Thomas!

Thomas: Hiro! *he tries to pull backwards, but Hiro was too heavy, he blew his whistle*

Percy: Hang on Thomas! We're coming!

Thomas: Percy?

Hiro: Reinforcements!

Percy, James, Rosie, Molly, and Emily all arrive, they couple to each other and Thomas

James: All together!

Thomas/Percy/James/Rosie/Molly/Emily: Heave ho! *they pull hard together, to pull Hiro to safety*

Due to the 6 Engines being together, they successfully pull Hiro to safety, just as the bridge collapse

Hiro: Thank you, my friends, I am eternally grateful for saving me

Thomas: Your welcome Hiro

Scene transitions to Tokyo Docks, at Morning, when the storm cleared up

Narrator: The next day, after the storm was over, the rail ferry arrived, and it was time for Thomas and his friends are ready to head home to Sodor

Thomas: Goodbye Hiro, it was nice of us to work on the Japanese Railway

Percy: We're gonna miss you

Hiro: Goodbye my friends, hopefully you might come visit me again

Molly: Or you can visit us on Sodor

Hiro: Very well

Kyo Yamashiro: Wait! I got a gift for you before you head home *he shows them a massive Manga Story Collection*

Percy: Is that?

Emily: Human versions of us on the cover?

Thomas: That retells our adventures in Japan

Kyo Yamashiro: Yes! All the stories such as Pop Star Molly, Sushi Maiden Emily, Yokozuna Rosie, Kaiju Defender Percy, Tokyo James, and Hero Thomas

Thomas: *surprised* Oh, thank you Mr. Yamashiro!

Thomas's Driver takes the Manga Story Collection

Kyo Yamashiro: Your welcome Thomas!

The Rail Ferry honked its horn and set sail

Thomas: Farewell Hiro!

Hiro: Goodbye my friends *he blew his whistle*

Thomas, Percy, James, Rosie, Molly, and Emily all blew their whistles

Thomas: Sodor, our home

James: Here we come

Scene transitions to the Rail Ferry, arriving at Brendam Docks

Narrator: At last, after a long journey, Thomas and his friends arrived back home on Sodor

Thomas: *puffs off the Rail Ferry* Sodor, it feels good to be home

Rosie: I agree

Percy: *looks around* Odd, where's Salty and Porter? Don't they normally greet us?

Molly: Maybe, they are hiding

James: Let's find that out

Thomas: *puffs up to see Cranky* Hello Cranky!

Cranky: *surprised* Well I'll be, Thomas! Your back from a time in Japan!

Carly: Thomas, Percy, James, Rosie, Molly, and Emily? Back from Japan!

Big Mickey: Hooray! They are home!

Bulstrode: Welcome home!

Thomas: Oh, thank you!

Molly: But can you tell us where are Salty and Porter at
