Too Strong
Tw: Animal death
I'm Brick. I'm a dog. My humans call me a "Pibble."
My dad has a sister; she has a small dog named Princess. She's my cousin! She gets to ride around in Aunties' bag, and sit on everyone's lap! I wish I could do that; but she also has to wear things on her feet and a "sweater" all the time, so maybe not...
She and Auntie came over today!
We're playing tug-o-war! Sometimes I let Princess win so she can feel better about me winning most of the time; she never lets me win though...
She's pulling reallyyy hard this time! She's getting stronger! I even have to shake my head!
...
...
Where did she go?
She was right in front of me...
Oh!
How'd she get over by the wall?
Why is her ear bleeding??? Why is she shaking like that!? She normally shakes, but this is different!
I know! Kisses! Kisses always make things better!
...
It's not working...!
Oh! Dad! Auntie! Do you guys know what happened?
Ow!!! Dad! Wh-why did you grab my collar like that??? Can I at least help??? Auntie's yelping and howling!
"!#$@$^!@!^$#@%&!!!"
I don't understand him, he speaks in strange barks, but, why are you so mad??? Is Princess okay?
Oh...!
I don't understand...
Daddy... Why am I in a cage?
Daddy... Where are we going...?
Wh-why are you leaving??? Daddy!!! A stranger's pulling my leash!!! Daddyyyy!!! Come back!!! I love you!!! Daddy!!! Don't you love me???
...
...
"... aggressive..."
I know that word! But, usually Dad says, "Not" before it...
Is it a bad word? What does it mean?
I've been here a long time...
People come in, and sometimes they play with me in a room!
But then the person who took my leash from Dad, says things I don't understand and then the people run away...
Everyone's so sad here... The small puppies get to leave first, so do the small dogs... It's sad...
Dad's not coming back... I don't understand... Didn't he love me? And what happened to Princess? Is she okay?
It's been a long, long time...
No one who plays with me ever comes back... They all run away... Some of them leave with other dogs... It makes me sad...
No one even looks at me anymore...
...
Everything hurts...
Ah... Where are we going now...? To the vet again...? Please... I don't want to...
The person with the long white coat is here...
Oh no... more pokes...
I'm tired... I'm... sleepy... I... Can I see my dad one last time...?

hi, hope you're having a great day! can i request something with soft!dom jongin? thanks!
Tumblr media
pairing: kim jongin x f!reader word count: 260 genre: smutty warnings: sexual content, choking, dirty talk, curse words, dick riding a/n: i miss jongin 😢
jongin smirked when you moaned, fingers tugging just a little bit tighter at your throat.
"am i hurting you, jagi?", he asked, delighted at how you instantly mentioned that no, he wasn't. "good. remember to use your words, okay?"
your first instinct was to nod, but jongin raised his eyebrows at you and that alone made you stop.
"okay", you mumbled.
"good girl", jongin praised. "now ride me, baby."
he didn't have to ask you twice. your legs started to work on their own, hips rocking back and forth on top of jongin. his left hand was wrapped around your neck, while the other one was resting flat on your thigh. he didn't have any plans to help you, so you knew you would have to work hard for both your and his climax.
but as much as jongin loved to see you getting yourself off on him, your movements just weren't doing much to him. so that's why he grabbed your neck with a bit more of strength again, pulling you down to his face.
"aniya, baby", he complained, lips brushing yours. "not like that... you know how to do it, don't you?"
"um, but it just feels so good like this..."
"that was an order, jagi", jongin said, thumb pressing your vein.
shamelessly, you moaned at that. jongin smirked again when you nodded, suddenly starting to bounce up and down on him. he moaned too, moving his right hand to your ass so he could help you.
"just like that", he groaned. "fuck, baby, yeah... make us cum".

Enemies au ft. Ladrien for the ask game 👀 (hehehehe)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
@heartfulselkie @ladyofthenoodle @rosie-b
i see this is was a popular one (which is good because i'm actually dying to talk about it 😂). i haven't written much of this yet, but i DO have a complete 26-chapter outline (that i made during my writing "break"), and even though i'm trying not to get too deep into it yet because i have so many other projects, i also not-so-secretly want to be enabled. do with that what you will this fic would take place in an au that diverges from canon at some point early season 5 (post-elation at the latest but i haven't quite decided), and it's my rendition of sentiadrien being forced to help monarch. i want to play with how sentiorders might work and what loopholes might exist. but also the fact that adrien doesn't know he's a senti yet. he doesn't even understand WHY he keeps agreeing to help his father, and he hates himself for that and ladybug...is understandably not in a great place either. obviously she has more support than adrien, but she still feels the weight of the burden. she misses her kitty 😢. and even alya has some stuff going on in her life, so she can't be as available to marinette as she has been in the past
then ladybug and adrien run into each other after an akuma attack one day. and it's sort of an echo of strikeback, where she's at her lowest point, and even if adrien knows he should run away and leave her, he can't. not when she's hurting. and he starts to realize maybe he can still help her. maybe he's not useless.
and ladybug also starts to see adrien in a new light (because he's still allowed to go to lycee, he just...doesn't really talk to any of his friends anymore). she's been so distracted with her own stuff that she's pushed her feelings about him aside, but even if she can't overthrow monarch, even if chat noir is lost to her, maybe she can at least help someone she loves
so basically it's ladynoir enemies with ladrien helping each other pick up the pieces. where they both start at rock bottom but maybe they (with some help from their friends!) can start to help each other heal
i'll share the intro scene under the cut (since this is getting long) with the caveat that this is an early version i might still want to flesh out/rework/possibly rewrite completely
thanks for the ask(s)!! 💜
...
It was barely October. It shouldn't be cold enough for the air to burn on the way down, for each breath to feel like ice crystallizing in Ladybug's lungs. But it did. 
It felt like she'd forgotten how to breathe.
Gigantitan toddled down the street, clapping his hands and using the occasional stopped car as stepping stones. Car roofs caved in as he advanced, bringing muffled screams from those who hadn't been lucky enough to flee  in time. And Ladybug could only stand there, backing away unsteadily as she failed to come up with a plan. 
Part of her wondered if she should just give up. It would be fitting, at this point, to be taken down by a toddler. If she barely had the strength to get out of bed every morning, she certainly didn't have the energy for impromptu babysitting—even if the fate of Paris hung in the balance.
Maybe it was someone else's turn to care.
The voice in the back of her head—the one insisting she didn't really want that—wasn't loud enough to spur her heavy limbs into action. Instead she found herself wondering what the end would be like. When Monarch won, when he made the wish, would she feel the force of being torn apart, cell by cell? 
Or maybe her end would come sooner. Gigantan was getting close now, and the silhouette of Monarch's mask flash across his face. But maybe he wouldn't be swayed by Monarch's words. Perhaps he'd keep smashing through the streets, and she'd be crushed like the cars he'd already left in his wake. Or maybe—
Someone slammed into her side, protective arms wrapping around her as they flew through the air, landing roughly and rolling until they slammed into the side of a building. Even with the suit, her hip was still throbbing from the impact when they stopped, her assailant hovering over her. She kept her eyes shut tight for a moment, breathing in his familiar scent and taking comfort from the arms bracketing her body—keeping her safe, the way they always used to.
The way they shouldn't. Not anymore.
Chat Noir's breath warmed her face as he pushed himself up, and Ladybug forced her eyes open to meet a pair of wide, worried eyes. Ones that sucked away any remaining breath she had left.
How dare he look at her like that? After everything?
"Ladybug, I..." He squeezed his eyes shut, his whole body stiffening momentarily. "I'm sorry."
A shiver travelled down her spine, zapping some life back into her. By the time she noticed his hand twitching in her periphery, she was already moving. Her fist connected with his cheek as claws grazed her earlobe.
Grunting, Chat rolled off of her. She sprang to her feet, hand moving to her yo-yo as she glanced back and forth between her two foes. Adrenaline coursing through her veins, she was starting to cobble together some semblance of a plan. But she needed more time, so she tossed her yo-yo around a nearby chimney and took off through the streets. 
When she was certain she'd gotten enough distance from the fight, she stopped on a rooftop, resting against a chimney as she caught her breath, remembering the shock of green eyes boring into hers.
It shouldn't be cold enough yet for her body to feel so numb.

My experience playing Baldur's Gate 3:
Get up from crash. Meet/recruit Shadowheart. Explore, loot some bodies/crates, forage for herbs. Tangle with some live Intellect Devourers and struggle fighting them with my 2-character party; reload from save and decide to explore in a different direction.
Find big, important-looking "Ancient Door" (clearly important because it has its own entry on the map). Pick lock. Explore/loot abandoned temple, disarm some traps, etc. Push button in Dark Crypt, revealing important-looking room and murderous skeletons. Die. Reload from save. Die. Reload from save. Die. Decide to leave the button alone and circle back later. ☹️
Find/climb secret ladder to top of ruins and discover first live people since the mind-flayer ship! Yay! Potential help/information! Go talk to them. Get murdered by looters. Reload from save. 😢
Sneak past looters to explore different area. Rescue Lae'zel (sniping NPCs from hiding due to paranoia after looters) and level up. Go in search of Emerald Grove. Complete various quest tasks and recruit Wyll. Formulate a plan for which quest thread to chase next.
Have discussion with a mutual who asks if I got "Withers" yet. Find out this is who is behind the death-by-skeletons button and briefly explain the history of why I skipped the button (and looters). Mutual: "ah, you went in from the bottom." 🤨
Return and defeat skeletons without huge difficulty. Go back up top, deal with Intellect Devourers and explore the rest of the area, meeting Astarion, before returning to successfully deal with the looters and reach the rest of the ruin. 😐😐😐
Reflect on the fact that 1) rogue is only one of many possible PC options, 2) non-rogues would only have one available after finding Astarion (i.e., at least 2 allies available), 3) Lae'zel was roughly in between Astarion and the ruins (could form full 4-person party on the way back to the ruins), and 4) there were a lot of looters, but conveniently separated into manageable groups.
Realize maybe, just maybe, "Pick the lock of the Big, Important Door before exploring any other options" was not, in fact, intended to be THE obvious path forward at that moment.
🤷 If the gods didn't intend my rogue to pick locks, they wouldn't have given him lockpicks. How does my amnesiac rogue know it was the gods who gave him lockpicks? Well, they were in his pockets, and he certainly doesn't remember buying any.
(To be clear, I am actually enjoying this game immensely, but in hindsight I think I probably did circumvent a planned build-up in difficulty and party strength by casually picking that lock. 🤦 And I am learning to save frequently.)

Thinking about the parallels between Lord Cassius and Alden . . . .
Okay, so both of them are elves of nobility. Both of them are widely regarded for their notable strength in their particular abilities. Both are proud men who have a reputation they feel they must uphold, and they are also perfectionists (probably Alden less so than Cassius). This perfectionism carries over into their aspirations and expectations for their children, whom they hold to high standards. Lord Cassius and Alden both have something of a vision and a legacy which is very important to them and which they strongly prioritize, hence the great weight of expectation placed on their children. I didn't realize until lately how similar they actually are.
However, before you throw them both out on the same trash pile as lousy dads, there is one key difference that is worth noting.
The difference? Where Cassius is cold and distant from his son, Alden actually makes an effort with his children. Sure, he fumbles and gets things wrong and doesn't always choose the best way of doing things. But he still *tries.*
Okay, but how do we know Alden's intentions are good as opposed to Cassius's? Well, how do elves usually know these things? Empaths, right? And who in the Lost Cities is an even more powerful empath than Lord Cassius? Keefe (thanks, Mad Scientist Gisela and your messed up Legacy).
The point is, Keefe senses. He knows. Especially as a powerful empath, but also as an abused child. Because children who are verbally and emotionally abused tend to be extra sensitive to the words and moods of those around them. Keefe was a recipient of this kind of abuse from his emotionally distant father. So even as a young kid, what did he do to get away from it? He went somewhere that he didn't feel unsafe. He started hanging out at the Vackers' house. His sensitivity as an abused child combined with his powerful Empathy didn't set off warning bells when he was there. It was his safe place. You'd think if Alden's intentions weren't good at least, Keefe would've felt the same discomfort he feels around his own dad.
To further prove this point, recall the time when the teens ran away to join the Black Swan. As they were leaving, Alden and Della gave everyone hugs and said goodbye, treating Sophie, Dex, and Keefe just the same as they did their own kids. Keefe would've felt it if this gesture was insincere. But instead he recognizes that they are genuine, even if their well-intended actions aren't always perfect (And even if Keefe still doesn't know how to handle parental affection 😢).
So yeah, the bottom line is that, while Alden and Lord Cassius have much in common and the potential to be a lot alike, the key difference is that Alden actually tries, actually puts effort into doing what he thinks is right, even if it does turn out to be shortsighted or imperfect. And Keefe's relationship to him as opposed to his relationship with Lord Cassius is how we tell the difference.

That quote from the day Ceill was born is Crosscurrents Ch23! 🤗 Tilrey was distressed & barely holding it in 😭
"Tilrey didn't seem to hear him. 'Vera used me, Gersha. That’s how he exists. That explains everything in my life. I’m nothing. I’m only good for people to use. Sometimes I even like to be used. Don’t you understand that?'"
The baby brings him right back into his worst suppressed feelings of subjugation, force, dehumanization during his youthful captivity era just 5-10 years ago. After all, if he'd been female, they could've forced him to be impregnated by their cocks as part of their ownership of him. *Such* a primal violation, which is exactly how he experiences this.
Every single thing with Vera has always led to his worst punishments, or started with them. Meeting her while cuddled up in a blanket, red rimmed eyes from crying, after the first time he was ever raped. Her liking him making him feel like a normal teen again -- only to result in the horror of his night in the brothel. (Which Malsha wanted him to experience regardless, but he didn't know that.) Sneaking off with her for a couple hookups the next year, feeling the great sex (marred by realizing Malsha really did control his orgasms now) -- directly resulting in the humiliation & pain of the confrontation at the restaurant in front of Vera and rape by Krisha, where Krisha's "punishing grip" if he even tried to move made it so scary. Finally these young adult hookups he barely even really wanted to do with Vera -- resulting in him having the baby of his rapists. She embodied all of them, even if she'd never directly forced him herself.
He'd even finally told her what her involvement with him had done to him! And yet, this final permanent overwhelming violation still happened, thanks to her.
Not everyone can get over being forced to have a baby with their rapists, their body & agency being taken over in that way -- despite never blaming the baby. Tilrey's clearly someone who can't, which is valid. How hard he worked to love Ceill in his own way, intensely protect him, come to know him, is a testament to his good heart & strength of character that nothing can ruin.
Oof, yeah, that quote brings it all back, and it really is a violation. No wonder Tilrey never is friendly with Vera after that, even though they have to be civil for Ceill’s sake. (IIRC, they have a big argument over the right moment to tell Ceill the truth, with Tilrey feeling like she’s trying to control him again.)
Now, Vera would point out that he was having sex with her for political reasons that last time, using her—which is true. But that’s the world he was forced into, a world that has always been kind and forgiving to Vera and her romantic notions while hurting him in so many ways. 😢

Ep 14 sorta review (copied on twt and i post this here since im shadowbanned on there 😢) pls excuse the grammar and the length i have too much thoughts
Ok i finally watched it with subs!! Now I understand things better.
First things first we have new reaction image
Tumblr media
Roy's part is straightforward, im glad he's so supportive and helpful to wattrell, and eventually captured it. murdock giving him a pokeball to catch it is so sweet, he knew it was coming!! Also him and liko going shopping and having ice cream together is cute, and him thanking her for letting Dot make sandwich is heartwarming :'). But never thought his comment about wanting a certain spice will backfire...
In last ep i thought spinel was ready to act when he came out in disguise, but no he was still trying to gauge the rvt's strength. I wonder if he's trying to lull friede into a false sense of security since the signal problem has been addressed (speaking of friede, rant incoming)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Friede oh my gosh. after watching the ep i can't blame friede 100% since liko went to town on her own without company, but it's still irresponsible for friede to not tell his team what happened.
He knew something was wrong but he chose to ignore it in favour of focusing on takeoff. If he'd told the team about it they'd be on high alert and less likely to do things on their own. It reflects badly on friede's leadership (and cpt. Pikachu as well?). Him not telling liko he's hired by her mom was funny before but it's harmful now. And given how he just met liko's parents.. this stings more 😬
That said it's also a risky gamble for spinel to attack friede because what if friede is responsible and told his team to be on alert instead, did he know friede won't tell? 🤣 and Liko really need to be more careful, i think she's been under protection so much she got careless. If there's a silver lining i think this incident could be a learning opportunity for rvt, they've been getting Ws so much they got overconfident.
Onto Spinel, DID HE REALLY NEED TO ASK THIS?? THE AUDACITY?;"?#!'
Tumblr media
He just love mocking people isn't he? Even in disguise his personality shows through 🤣😭 alternatively he could be making sure liko actually lost her memories, but knowing how smug he is it's hard not to read it that way.
He succeeded getting the pendant but it's clear he didn't care about liko, going as far as wiping her memories (he's being safe but it's overkill imo) and leaving her in levincia.
Tumblr media
Did he not know the pendant won't activate without her?
He saw what happened back in arboliva forest since he's been spying on them, but it seems it didn't register to him (possible spinel L?). I think now is a good time to confirm if that testament is true.
Also reminder, it was amethio who made this observation and decided to get her along with the pendant, at the expense of his time and gibeon's patience (lol). He made this conclusion right as it happened. So both spi and ame have seen the pendant react to liko, but only ame made the connection (possible amethio W?). This also highlights amethio and spinel's difference, ame is more observant and will deviate from orders if he deems necessary, meanwhile spinel is more focused and follows orders as is. I love this tbh it makes them more interesting.
Liko's memories got wiped right after the ep where she reminisces and being thankful about her adventures and new friends feels kinda cruel lol, poor girl... Not only liko, sprigatito also lost its memories, but seeing the preview, they somehow stayed together until night and then they saw the moon together. This is a callback to the scene where she trained with sprigatito back in ep 1! I think this is an important milestone 🥹💖 i hope they remember.
Overall, it's insane how the story goes from high (roy helping wattrel and catching it) to low (likos pendant got stolen). We (or at least me) were on a rollercoaster of emotions the entire ep, it's amazing. Story-wise I love that this anime is constantly challenging the status quo by having the pendant actually got stolen and liko got attacked. It keeps me on the edge of my seat bc i don't know what to expect, because anything can happen!!
Ok i think I've finished talking abt ep 14 dang that was long🤣 That said, in next ep preview...
Tumblr media
Is this spinel? Is spinel still there ?? I thought he leave already??? He's risking his position if he stayed there for long, what's stopping him from leaving already? He didn't need to worry about them finding liko anyway since she's not important to him, he already got the pendant so why is he preventing them from finding her? But maybe it's not spinel but someone else. Maybe even pokemon, we can never trust previews 100% lol.
The ep title doesn't really give a hint since apparently it focuses on Dot and quaxley? Iono will also appear, but I can't tell what's the correlation between the two, other than they're both influencers. They're definitely going to find liko, so maybe dot will ask for iono's help? Her gym test does revolve around looking for people after all. But 'someone getting in the way' makes me feel nervous.
That's all my thoughts, this was a great ep, explorers fans are fed well, see you next week!!

olympia soiree review after 100%-ing the game... general consensus of my brain worms is that the premise, its themes, the japanese cultural context, and the lore are its biggest strengths. but it needed a heavy editing hand. writers gotta trust their audience more bc we really do not need flashbacks to a thing that happened three minutes ago. it just felt like some great solid bits that were bundled up way too much w superfluous padding. as such the pace suffered and what should have been devoted to developing further why byakuya and her li would fall in love is spent on filler and revisiting info we already know
the spiciness and the sheer romance of the cg scenes are so good but sometimes it was whiplash when byakuya and her li were suddenly in soulmates mode. the individual scenes were chefs kiss but the relationship development overall felt less earned which made those scenes less impactful than it should have been. i know it's just the two weeks but cmon ive been sold less believable absurdity in less that time
anyway in terms of each route:
himuka - tbh he really didn't leave a lasting impression besides his place in the lore. my fave thing is his character design and i spent most of the route pretending this was a yuri game lmao i think his was the one where i rly questioned why byakuya fell so hard and fast (and she does that in every route but his especially i was like.... but why are you suddenly so ride or die??)
tokisada - cute! but im not typically a fan of the little bro type. when he talks about walking into the ocean tho i did cry 😢 his bad ending main menu speech is so good. i love it when men break down despondently 😌
yosuga - loved him up to That Scene. i love possessive dubcon stuff in otome but this was a character who was established to be someone who prioritizes consent and safety for the female citizens of yomu so it just seemed so out of left field and uncharacteristic. did enjoy the hades and persephone analogue vibes tho
riku - such a fan of this nerd. for some reason i felt his angst more than i did the others perhaps bc his biggest obstacle in returning byakuya's love was his own self. rly related to his desire and anxiety to live up to other people's standards and his general ineptness in romantic situations. bc it often ends w byakuya being the most forward one which i always enjoy whenever the mcs take the lead in otome. had fun w him but he and byakuya felt the most whiplash along w himuka
kuroba - enjoyed his personality for most of the game and was honestly thrown off that he ended up being the most yandere of the bunch. which is interesting considering the reveal of who his birth father actually is. was not a huge fan of how they treated sexual assault in this route. like i intellectually understand why the good ending is like that but they rly should have let that motherfucker choke. handkerchief callback was adorable tho
akaza - BIG FAN of bbq dad. his was the one i was looking forward to the most bc he was the one byakuya was the most resistant in giving a chance. and im just a sucker for decent men who give off a bad first impression bc they take things too seriously. i love his insistence of asserting himself and byakuya as singular entities and not bound by the fate of their roles which is a deft way of tying the relationship with the game's overall themes. his route felt the most believable in selling why they're compatible and why they fell in love because they went to intentional multiple dates where it truly felt like they were learning about each other. i would have liked some room to explore his faults and fears outside of byakuya but i enjoyed his route the most so i can't complain too much
other scattered thoughts
the short stories are great esp the memoirs by the supporting cast. made me appreciate them more bc it gave them nuance and complexity
SHURA 🥰 complicated women my loves. wish tho that her bitterness against byakuya wasn't also rooted in her infertility. not that the motivation is inherently bad but as one of the few female dynamics byakuya has it isn't great
hairi devolving to villainy was understandable but disappointing. wish tho that there was one character based in yomu who wasn't on byakuya's side but wasn't also a villain either.
douma reveal just doesn't sit right in the end like they're trying to establish this grumpy dad vibe when douma spent the majority of the games not just being grumpy and stoic but actively being an asshole and almost resentful
kanan i was generally annoyed with until i got through the bad endings and read his memoir and i did a complete 180 on him. earnestly really enjoy this asshole now and i find him fascinating as a villain
tsukuyomi's memoir is my absolute fave "now i water the cherry tree" just the existential resignation of it all....
don't have much thoughts on the obvious allegory and how it explores oppression as a theme namely bc im missing the cultural and historical framework w my largely western lens and i think context here is absolutely imperative to do this justice

cheol trying to do readers makeup and he’s genuinely trying so hard bc he wants her to look pretty ;-;;;😢😢dhmu only real ones know
XIA.... DON'T DO THIS TO MEJNDJLGDK i need him to do my makeup immediately. also, i'm sorry if this wasn't written the way you expected but omg i literally almost died writing this, i miss him 🥹
Tumblr media
"sit still, gonna turn you into the prettiest doll ever."
"oh? am i not already the prettiest doll?"
seungcheol gives you a deadpan look, "you know that's not true, doll."
you snicker at the look on his face and he stops using the brush because of your movements from laughing. currently, you were sat on seungcheol's lap, leaning against your vanity while seungcheol took the little seat you would normally use.
"sweetheart..." he whines, displaying his pout.
"sorry, i'll stop. promise!"
seungcheol picks up an eyeshadow brush, dipping it in a warm shade. he asks you — very sweetly, i mean, he said 'please' — to close your eyes and with very light touches, he spreads the colour onto your eyelids with his pinkie finger resting on the top of your cheek. his brushes are so gentle that you can hardly feel the soft bristles.
"hey, are you even putting any on?" your brows scrunch together.
"i am! it's a very cute colour," he stops again, "relax your brows, princess."
"i can't feel the brush, i doubt there's any colour showing on me, cherry."
"patience, pretty princess," he kisses your lips, "patience."
you think he's scared to hurt you with a damn makeup brush, it's not possible for him to hurt you but then again, sometimes he forgets his own strength (he accidentally broke a pair of sunglasses 'cus the screws were too tight and wouldn't open...)
with the eyeshadow completed to his liking, seungcheol moves to the blush, applying it to the apples of your cheeks with the correct brush he picked up from behind you and mumbling something along the lines of 'gonna eat your cheeks, they're so round and cute'.
"open," he taps your lips with his finger and applies a coat of lipstick in his favourite shade on you — a cherry red shade. whenever you wore that shade, seungcheol couldn't help but kiss it off your pretty lips, didn't care if it transferred to his own.
"all done, pretty princess!" he leans back to check his work, dimple peeking out in pride. he hands you a little mirror so you can also see.
you think your jaw might unscrew and fall off from the way it fell so hard, "cheol...this is too good, how did you do it better than me?"
"i might have watched a few tutorials just so i could do it for you..." he trails off, getting quieter as his ears grow red.
"you—" practically jumping onto his lap even further, you wrap your arms around his neck and squeeze him tight, shaking him in your hold and too overwhelmed with love to even form sentences.
"i'd do anything for you, doll"

“Fourth Wing”
26/12/2023
Reading progress: 222/498 (44%) Read through since last update: 117
Since I'm sick, I don't have much other to do than just rest and read in bed, which is the sole reason I managed to go through another 100 pages today. (I'm a slow reader so this is way more than my average.) Again, I'm having mixed feelings of this book. I like the premise. I really do. But the writing is very sloppy, and I can't oversee it. Still, I try to enjoy the novel as much as I can.
Thoughts on this section:
That fight with Xaden was cool, but unlike Violet who completely forgot they weren't alone in the training hall, I didn't. Which made me feel as if I'm a spectator to all of it. And it felt kinda awkward, not gonna lie.
Again, I know Dain means well, but the way he talks to Violet makes it seem like he doesn't know her at all. Worst of all, he kinda gives me the impression he has some anterior motives behind his kindness, like he expects Violet to love him because he's good to her. Of course, there's no concrete evidence for this, it's just the vibe he gives off.
That whole chapter when Violet talks to Xaden was so out of pocket. She's afraid of him and he kinda wants to kill her. They're not really friends. But then Violet takes this random opportunity to vent to him? Why?
Speaking of weird dialogue, that moment during Presentation when Violet asks Rhiannon whether she's getting a nephew or a niece literally gave me whiplash. Why does that matter now? I swear the last time this was discussed was after they have survived the Parapet, 2 months ago in their time.
Violets biggest flaw in this whole book is her size. Not her lack of physical strength. Not her lack in training. Not her vulnerability. No. She's just tiny. A tiny little fragile girl. Poor, poor Violet. Too curvy. Too clumsy. Too adorable. Too unlucky. How could she ever succeed? How could she ever survive? Who will ever love her? 😢😢😢😢
Ok, that moment when the two greens are sniffing Violet was so cute.
This is also very nitpicky, but if you have a fantasy novel, you cannot use specific words tied to our world. You cannot have October because it implies a much broader history that's tied to ours.
Tynan, Oren and Jack hunting and wanting to kill the golden dragon makes absolutely zero fucking sense and it's just put in there as a lazy shock factor. It's just so stupid.
But I'm glad it worked out! Black dragon, hell yeah!
And of course Violet is going to be a little bitch when she talks to it. Girl, please. I haven't felt this much second hand embarrassment in years.
On the other hand, I really loved the following chapter when they fly together. I like Tairn as a character. And I like that there's something he's yet to reveal about himself.
Andarna is really cute too!
I am really thrown off when Violet jumps in and adds her unnecessary and stupid comments. Chapter 15 was so good, and then Yarros end it with "And all hell breaks loose". Why? What should this mean to me as a reader? Just show it to me in the next chapter.
Okay, gotta hand it to the author, I like this twist where Sgaeyl is mated with Tairn, so, by default, Violet is now connected with Xaden. This is a cool way to make this romance stronger.
On the other hand, I feel like Yarros tries to bend her own rules in order to create tension. It makes no sense to me, based on what we heard till now, that if a cadet kills a rider, they might have the chance to bond with their dragon. What's the chance of that happening? I mean, sure, it's possible, but is it realistic?
Dain, you stupid fuck. Way to go with that kiss. (Future me writing down: that little weasel kissed her just so he can look into her memories!!!)
As much as I don't like Dain, I do respect him for choosing not to pursue Violet because of his rank. And honestly, Violet had no right to judge him on that. Oh, he's too uptight, he wouldn't want to break the rules for me. Yeah, I would sure hope so! He's your superior. I'm glad his moral compass is fucking functioning.
Was really shocked by the gruesome manifestation of the mind reading signlet, but then I got lost in the guy's rambling? He revealed some interesting stuff, then nothing at all. And I hate how Dain's thoughts took the spotlight. Like, he's only thinking of what he already said a 100 times.
Andara really went "Za Warudo". Slay 💅
That's it for now! I'll be sharing more notes soon.

This story and every single chapter holds me in a tight grip 😁🥰 and I can't believe that there's only one chapter left...I don't want it to end. But I also know that all good things have to come to an end. 😊
The monsters of the island got what they deserved and hopefully they didn't die soon... Let's hope they had to suffer long...🤨
It was dark and cold so you couldn't see that she was smiling at you, she was finally free from this cursed place, you put an end to it and she was thankful.
Minola is free and I'm very happy for her 😊 . Y/n did so well with bravery and strength and of course with Loki's love, support, shelter and help ❤️ 💚
Y/n and Loki are the sweetest babies and I will miss them so much 😢🥺🥰❤️💚
...you couldn't have done this without him, if it wasn't for Loki you wouldn't have survived the Sumber Island again, you would have been its victim, you got blessed by a god and now that you were off the Island, all of it felt like a dream.
"That's not what I want Princess but maybe it's for the best that I leave you be" you nodded as he put the final nail in the coffin.
I know he's scared because of what his ex did to him and that he's afraid to ask y/n if she wants to make this sacrifice for him and live in isolation with him. But he should ask her and he should let her make her own decisions 😌
They need and deserve their happy ending and I'm sure love will find a way! 💚💞💚💞💚
I can't wait to read the next chapter, Queen @lokisprettygirl 👑, even though it will be the last one 🥰😭💚❤️

Tumblr media
You found yourself back in the house on Slumber island. He was standing right in front of you with a desperate look in his eyes, desperate but hurt. 
"Loki I can't go, I can't leave" He nodded as you said that. 
"You have to sweetheart, we can't be together forever" your eyes filled with tears of pain, that's what you feared would happen, you feared you'd end up with a broken heart. 
"Noooo ..I can't. You're all I have Loki, you're everything I have, I can't be without you" you weeped and you could tell it was affecting him but he seemed helpless. 
"And I can't be your everything sweetheart, if you choose me it's only going to be me, I'll be your everything but that won't be easy for you, you can't go on like that for eternity" He tried to reason with you but it didn't make any sense. You'd choose him for eternity if you have to.
"Why can't I lo? You don't trust me? I love you please" you moved towards him to hug him tightly and he allowed you, he didn't push you away, in fact he was holding you tighter than he had ever done before. You couldn't breathe, you couldn't breathe at all, you felt suffocated....
"Sweetheart wake up–" you opened your eyes and found him hovering over you, he looked concerned, you felt his fingers gently wiping the beads of sweat from your forehead. 
"Looo" your arms wrapped around his neck, it was just a dream, it wasn't real. You still had him, you weren't going to lose him, not today, not this very moment.
"Nightmare?" He asked you softly so you nodded in response, he laid next to you then he pulled you into his arms to cuddle you tightly.
"What can I do to make you feel better?" you smiled as you peppered kisses on his neck.
After the moment you had spent with Loki under the water, you didn't remember much, you felt too hazy, too floaty to even register anything else, it was him and him only, he was your only thought and your only desire. And when he confessed that he loved you, you couldn't even believe it, a man like him loving you seemed preposterous, how could an ethereal being like him fall for you? You wanted to stay under the water forever, you don't even remember when or how he brought you back to the house but he did, he took great care of you after the sex and he brought you home, he cooked dinner for you, he fed you and then you two showered together so you could go to bed. 
It felt perfect, everything seemed too perfect to be true. You couldn't sleep that night, the confession made your heart flutter every time you thought about that moment, somehow you dozed off but then the dream happened, and it scared you a lot. It made you uneasy.
"Hmmmm I am okay I promise" you climbed on top of him suddenly, taking him by surprise, that made him smile, his hair was dried and you could see the wavy curls, his hair wasn't straight like you were used to seeing.
"Do you straighten your hair?" You giggled and you saw his cheeks flushing, that rosy shimmer was too hard to miss, he seemed embarrassed but he was adorable. God you were absolutely, crazily in love with him.
"I ..use magic to keep them that way, so yessss" he mumbled softly.
"I love this, you are adorable" you said as you kissed him, your fingers played with his curls, he couldn't help but smile at the words. You felt famished, every touch, every kiss, everytime your skin rubbed against his you only felt hungrier, you felt insatiable and this wasn't like you, you didn't feel any desire for the opposite sex like this after that incident, it has ruined everything so this feeling that you had with him made you feel as if you were born again.
He kissed you with equal intensity, sex with a woman he loved, with you, meant to him as much it meant to you. He desired this too, he desired someone who'd choose him and him only, he had confessed that he loved you and he truly did, your happiness has became his sole reason to move forward but he also knew things won't be the same in the future, as much as he'd want to keep his girl all shacked up in his bed forever, it wasn't possible. You were a mortal with mortal needs, a need for friendship and companionship, a social life, he can't fulfill your every need, choosing him would require you to forget the whole world and choose only him. You can't tell anyone about him and he won't ask you to make such a sacrifice. 
Losing him might hurt you for a moment but he would hope for you to move on from that pain and live your life the way you'd want to. 
He was so deeply lost in his head that he didn't even realize when you had put his engorged cock inside your warm little cunt. He moaned loudly at the feeling of your walls constricting him so tightly. 
You placed your hands in his to make him sit up then you rode him until you felt high on this ecstasy. Your bodies stayed tangled around each other for rest of the night, but he was gone the next day. 
In the evening, you heard your telephone ringing so you picked up quickly. It was Natasha. 
She sounded scared, she said that she needed your help, she wanted you to go see her and you didn't know if you could trust her. You hated feeling this way, the fact that you couldn't even trust the woman you had known all your life.
As soon as you reached her house, you saw Clint there, Steve was there too and that didn't help your nerves. You looked at Loki and he assured you with his eyes, he was there and he won't allow them to hurt you. 
"What's going on?" You asked them as you crossed your arms and Clint chuckled.
 "Stop your acting now, we know you remember everything" you gulped as he said that. You looked at Natasha and she couldn't even look at you, she was ashamed of what she had to do to protect herself and her child. 
"I don't know what you are talking about" As Steve stormed towards you you tried to open the door and get out of there but you bumped into Bruce and Phil instead, you felt a pinch in your arm so you looked down and found a needle injected in your skin. 
"What…are you .. doing?" You couldn't even finish your sentence before you collapsed onto unconsciousness. You did hear Loki's voice in your head though, he told you that it was okay, he promised you that he won't let you get hurt but you needed to know the complete truth about the island. 
When you woke up you found yourself on the side of the beach, all tied up and unable to move, it sparked another memory, you have been here before. 
You looked around and your eyes teared up, all the people of the island were there to witness the sacrifice, they all had a burning torch in their hand as they watched you struggling in your binds, you couldn't find Natasha. She wasn't there, She was at home, she couldn't watch them do this to you.
Steve walked towards you and squatted down to remove the duct tape off your mouth forcefully.
"What happened little slut? Aren't you going to seduce me today?" Everyone laughed as he spoke, you felt his hands caress your skin and it made you flinch. 
"I'm here darling, I'm here, don't be scared, I promise I'm here" you heard Loki's voice but you couldn't see him. 
"You're all monsters, you hurt and kill innocent people and for what?" You snapped at him and he snickered. 
"You know up until that little stunt you pulled on me I really wanted to wife you up and shit, I didn't want you to die baby but you're too stupid for your own good, now you know what I'm going to do to you?" he asked you, you could hear the evil in his voice. He sounded manic.
"You're going to feed me to the stupid Banshee, is that it? Fuckk off" He slapped you as you said that. 
Loki's jaw clenched, he promised to protect you and he wasn't doing his best, but there wasn't much he could have done without revealing himself. Besides this was your fight, and you had to overcome them all, then only you'd truly move on and heal from these people and this place.
"That? Sure of course and we will enjoy her munching onto your bones but first I'm going to ruin you more than that guy who raped you did, you deserved it for being such a bitch..I will torture you until you'd beg me to feed you to the Banshee" he snickered and you felt so scared, so terrified, this was your worst nightmare. You couldn't think of anything worse at the moment. He noticed the genuine fear on your face and was satisfied. You cried for help but nobody came forward, the kids you taught at school were there too, that's how they raised them, they taught them to have no empathy for the outsiders, you were just a sacrificial lamb and it was a ritual they had to follow, but that's not what disgusted you, it was the lack of remorse or guilt on their faces.
"How's Natasha alive, what did you do to her?" You screamed at Clint and he chuckled.
"What do you guys think? Should we tell the bitch the truth?" Steve asked the people of the island and everyone started to laugh as they agreed in unison.
"Well the plan was simple, she was the sacrifice and you were meant to die 'accidentally' you know" Bruce answered you. He air quoted the term and you just wanted to slap that evil grin off his face. "That's why we drugged you so if by chance you were found dead out there, we won't be the one to blame here, you never really wondered why we chose you to be here?" Phil chuckled as he questioned you.
"Because you thought I was weak and alone? Mentally Unstable? Is that it?" You asked him, seemingly unfazed and that annoyed all of them to the core. They wanted you to be scared and broken.
"That's right, we almost succeeded in our plan too but this asshole wanted to marry your friend, I'd too if I wasn't already married " Bruce chuckled and his wife Marjorie glared at him.
"The Banshee, she's kind you see, she spared Natasha under one condition" Clint said.
"What condition?" You asked him and you had a feeling nothing good would come out of it. 
"That we'd bring her a new victim or sacrifice our firstborn, whatever comes first" 
You looked at him shocked as he said that, how could he do that to his own child? Whatever Loki or Banshee would do to them after Loki saves you, they'll deserve it. They didn't deserve to be alive.
"You truly are a monster" 
"I would have been, Not anymore though, we don't need to do that now that you are here, just in time you came back to us, your doctor friend brought the new blood back, it must have been our good luck that the sacrifice itself came back this time around, you're the only outsider to be able to get off this island alive, too bad you'll die a death worse than before, last time we really showed you mercy" Clint chuckled and you couldn't help but cry, it was too much. You didn't think you would have been alive right not now if it wasn't for Loki.
"Enough talking she's here" your eyes widened as he said that, so you looked to the side and you saw a black figure emerging from the shore, your heartbeat sped up immediately and you couldn't help but scream. She had long black hair but her body looked charred, she had hollow sunken eyes and an abnormally wide mouth, you saw those razor sharp teeth as they shone amidst the golden hue of the torch the people of the town were holding. 
And she crawled, she crawled as she came out of the shore and onto the ground, her crawling seemed contorted too, you could hear the sound her bones were making as she dragged her body.
She made a screeching noise as she got closer to you and it only scared you further. 
You saw the people of the island immediately getting on their knees to worship her, then they started chanting a prayer of sorts over and over again. Their voices echoed as they all formed a circle around you. You felt so scared that you couldn't keep your eyes open, you felt as if you were going to die again. You closed your eyes as you couldn't take this anymore but then someone picked you up so you started to scream, that's when you felt his presence. Loki. He walked you away from the people and you looked behind to see why they weren't stopping him. The imagery shocked you but not really, he was using his magic, you saw yourself on the ground in the same position you were just a moment ago.
"It's an illusion darling, you are safe I promise" you looked at him as he comforted you. You clutched onto him tightly but he continued to walk towards the shore, that's when you noticed the boat, he put you down on it and you let out a loud gasp as you saw Natasha lying there unconscious.
"How did she get here lo?" You asked him so he sighed. 
"I brought her, I figured you would not want to leave her to die here" 
You started crying as he said that, even though she betrayed you, a part of you understand why she had to do that, maybe she really did love Clint and maybe she was manipulated, she was hurt too and your friendship with her may not get back to what it used to be but you really hoped that she'd move on from this incident too. Her life has been hellish too.
"Row away darling, you'll reach the mainland sooner than you think" you shook your head as he said that.
"Come with me, I can't do this without you" you grabbed his fingers so he pressed a kiss on the back of your hand. 
"I'll always be there sweetheart I promise, but you need to go now, you don't need to see what is going to happen here now that the Banshee won't get her sacrifice, you have endured enough already" you looked at the people of the town and they only angered you.
"They deserve to be punished lo, they can't hurt more people, Minola and other people who died here, they deserve justice" 
"And they'll have it, I give you my word, they won't be alive to hurt anyone else" he took a few steps back and his fingers slipped away from yours slowly, your heart was sinking, this doesn't feel right, you felt as if you'd never see him again.
"Lo promise me I'll see you again…please" your eyes welled up with tears, your heart was breaking and he didn't feel any different. Things would change but they weren't in his control.
"You have me whenever you need me I promise" he waved his fingers and the boat started to drift away on its own. You weren't too far off when you started to hear the screams of the people, you saw the flames of the torches burning up higher and higher. She was pissed, the Banshee, she felt betrayed and she was going to take her revenge. 
The boat stopped moving so you grabbed the oar to row away, that's when you looked at the deep end of the shore and saw her. Minola. She stood there staring in your direction.
It was dark and cold so you couldn't see that she was smiling at you, she was finally free from this cursed place, you put an end to it and she was thankful. 
But you knew the truth, you couldn't have done this without him, if it wasn't for Loki you wouldn't have survived the Slumber Island again, you would have been its victim, you got blessed by a god and now that you were off the island, all of it felt like a dream. 
As you reached the mainland you called Stephen, he was shocked to see Nat alive, you didn't have time to even breathe after that. 
Word got out, people of the Slumber Island had disappeared into thin air mysteriously, leaving only two survivors behind. A whole community disappeared and it created havoc around in the media, your past was brought up too as people recognised you from the previous case against the hospital, you were questioned and probed but you didn't say a word, you just told them that you escaped with your friend and didn't know what happened to them.
"People had disappeared on the island before, where were you back then?" You asked the detective Fury investigating the case but he obviously had no answer. They all knew there was something wrong about the people of the island but they never inquired further. They didn't care. 
You were allowed to leave as there wasn't any possibility that you could have been responsible for the disappearance of the hundreds of people. They had no proof against you.
You were so engrossed in the circus of reality that you couldn't see Loki either, you were either with Stephen or Tony while Natasha healed in the hospital, when she woke up she was shocked and overwhelmed to be back in NYC, you didn't want to talk to her so you left and found yourself a hotel room until you can figure out what you had to do now. 
You felt as if he didn't even exist, he promised that he'd be there for you then where was he? For a moment you feared that he was hurt or banshee killed him but then it was impossible, he was too powerful for that. You missed him alot, there wasn't a second where you didn't crave his presence in your life, it's been a week and you thought he'd come see you but he didn't.
So you called for him over and over again, and he came too, then he told you the truth, his side of the truth and what he had to endure to keep you safe from those monsters. He lost his home, you were the reason he couldn't go back, he was bound in chains whenever he wasn't with you. That broke your heart, not because you feared that this was it for both of you but because of the sacrifice he continued to make for you knowing well that it would only make the punishment longer.
"You didn't tell anyone about me did you?" He asked you so you smiled,
"Who would believe me lo? You think they would believe me if I told them about the existence of a god named Loki and that he saved me?" 
He shook his head as he looked down.
"Why loki?" Your eyes filled with tears as you questioned him
"I am afraid I don't understand" 
"Why did you go through all that suffering for me? Why did you leave everything behind for me?" You asked him and he sighed, he walked closer to you and grabbed you by the shoulder to pull you closer to him 
"You know why" you looked up at him so he wiped your tears 
"You love me?"
"I'm in love with you, I have been enamored by you and the strength that you carried since your mother's prayers, I never understood why. On the island as I got to know you more it only affirmed my feelings. It only grew deeper. I'd choose to protect you over and over again if I have to princess" 
You started crying as soon as he finished his words.
"But your home, you can't go back, I can't sleep ever again knowing that you're sleeping in that dark cell, all alone" He hugged you tightly as you said that "There must be a way lo, there must be a way to fix this, to get you out of there, there must be a way, tell me if there's something I can do, please" 
He pulled away from you, there was a way but he couldn't do this to you, you just got back to the real world, you were starting to heal and he can't pull you back into isolation with him. 
"You can not live like that forever sweetheart" 
"What do you mean?" 
"You have to let me go" 
"Noooo I can't..lo I can't, you're all I have pleasee" you begged him, you didn't want to lose him, not today, not ever.
"I'd watch over you forever but we cannot be together, not in the way we want" you shook your head as he said that. His words made you angry too. They hurt you beyond belief.
"Then what was all that for? The time we spent on the island. Why did you get so close to me lo? Why did you treat me like that if you had no intention of staying with me?" You crossed your arms as you spoke and his eyes teared up.
"That is not why i–" 
"I get it okay? I get it, I don't want to see you again lo if that's what you want, go finish your sentence and go back to your home, I'm not your responsibility" You said to him, his words had hurt you deeply and now you were doing the same. You couldn't think properly at the moment, you just wanted to be with him desperately but you didn't think he wanted the same. 
"That is not what I want Princess but maybe it's for the best that I leave you be" you nodded as he put the final nail in the coffin. 
You should have stopped him, begged him, you should have convinced him otherwise but you did nothing, you watched him disappear and just like that, he was gone. You couldn't feel him anymore. He was gone and you felt all alone, all over again. 
It's been a few weeks and the more time you spent away from him the realisation only became clearer. You were in love with him and you didn't want to be without him but then you didn't want him to hurt because of you either.
You found a Sketch artist to get something made, you didn't have a picture of him so you needed something to get you by. You found a studio apartment in NYC and a job too, you were working and living in an autopilot mode it seemed. Stephen came to visit you so you invited him in, his eyes quickly fell upon the altar you had created to worship Loki.
"What is all this y/n?" He asked you as he looked at the picture you had kept in the altar so you smiled before you answered. Your answer shocked him. He never thought he'd see this day.
"Like mother like daughter, Why are you surprised Steph?"

🦅Being Shiratorizawa's Manager🦅
🎉Celebrating Their Manager's 🎉
💜Bulimia Recover Journey 💜
Tumblr media
Shiratorizawa x Gender Neutral manager
Warnings: discussions of eating disorders, probably Swearing
AN: This is an Anon request! I did a small set of headcannons I'll link here! I'm not super familiar with Bulimia and/or other eating disorders but I did do some research 🙂
What a year it's been YN 😍
Seriously you've come so far
You've gotten yourself help and are now on your recovery journey
Part of your recovery journey included finding a distraction 👀
And oh dear lord did you ever find one 😅
A distraction in the form a a team of stoic birdies 🦅
SHIRATORIZAWA 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
There is no changing me 🤣
Anyways, it's been a wild ride
You've been battling your own fight along with helping the team their struggles to get to nationals
You've stayed late helping Goshiki make sure his line shots were right on the line
You kept up with Tendo and his chaotic blocks
You make sure Ushiwaka didn't put too many dents in the gym floor from his powerful serves
You helped Shirabu become a better setter
You discussed strategy with Semi and Reon
You made Kawanishi come to practice 😅
You even helped Yamagata with his receives
Many days you left with volleyball 🏐 size bruises
But it was totally worth it 🥰
The pride and strength the team gave you was immeasurable
Nobody knew about your journey
Heck it wasn't like bring up an eating disorder was just casual conversation
It wasn't easy to talk about
You had been through so much YN
God I love you YN 😭😭😭
But every single day you got stronger
Eating wad always a challenge for you
But eith the proper help, your relationship with food was healing
You rarely ate around others still just because it was hard for you
But that's OK YN, one step at a time
So it wad a big deal when the third years invited you to join them for a dinner to honor them leaving 🥺
The dinner just happened to coincide with your 1 year sobriety anniversary
God imma cry again 😢
You were nervous
A year into your journey and this was going to be your biggest test
But you had prepared for this
And the first step in preparing is being open and honest
First we start with everyone but Tendo 😅
Not that Tendo isn't supportive but the mans is going to almost be too supportive?
Start with Semi
Semi and/or Reon are the safest options here
So you approach them and tell them
"So about the dinner tonight..." 😬
Sharing your story might cause you some tears but don't worry, Semi and Reon are top notch supporters
They will ask questions but like respectful questions
More to understand
Also take Semi with you when you tell Ushi ✋️
Please Ushiwaka is so clueless 🙄
Like he isn't mean but like mans can sometimes be a little... direct? Blunt?
You know this YN but still we need support
You tell Ushiwaka and he is just like 🧍‍♂️ 😐 "ok"
The fact that you got an "ok" is good YN
Semi is honestky shocked he said anything
When you tell Tendo, he's going to be like
👁👄👁
"But YN you're beautiful 🥺"
"Thanks Tendo, I'm learning to love myself" 🥰
Please he's so supportive it's almost crushing 😅
Does a Google search before you arrive at the restaurant
"Hey YN, did you know the awareness color for Bulimia is purple? That's why I wore a purple tie tonight!"- Tendo 🤗
"It looks very nice Tendo I appreciate the support" -you
The restaurant is daunting but you can do this
Semi and Reon are kind of unsure how to handle it
Yamagata is like "imma eat ✌🏻 "
Tendo is like 👀
Ushiwaka asks you if you need help at the buffet carrying your plate 😭
Please he's so precious YN take him up on his offer
Semi holds you hand and you go up together
You've got this YN
When you sit down, food in front of you, the guys are already eating
Please they are giants and act like they are starving
You slowly enjoy your food
I'm so proud 🥺
Now is the time to tell them that it's your 1 year anniversary
You didn't want to take away from their celebration
But what better way for you to celebrate then wirn your friends 🥺
"Guys-"
They all stop eating and stare 😳
"Umm- I just wanted to tell you that I appreciate all your support. I've been on this journey for a year now and you guys have helped me more than I can ever say"
"A year?"- Semi
"Yes- actually a year... today"- you 🙂
"A year... today??"- Yamagata
"HAPPY ANNIVERSARY YN"- Tendo 🎉🎈
Semi is like 🤦‍♂️
"Aren't we suppose to give YN paper for her first anniversary?"- Tendo
"We could give her a napkin"- Ushiwaka
"She's not married!"- Reon
"How about a napkin that says 'You Are The Best YN Love Tendo'"- Tendo
He's already writing it
You are dying laughing 🤣🤣🤣
Reon has walked away because he's done
Semi just accepts it going to happen
Tendo gives you the paper and he's so proud
It makes you cry 😭
After the meal and you leave, Tendo totally hugs you
Semi tells you how awesome it was that you came out with them
Tendo says they need to do it again
Ushi says they are graduating
You and Tendo cry 😭
Reon consoles you
Semi is suck with Tendo 😅
Ushi just stands there 🧍‍♂️

Random things I noticed rewatching Encanto on Disney+
Isabel must have some crazy good upper body strength with all the spiderman vine moves she does.
Noticing all of Mirabels craft supplies I feel like she embroidered her own clothing maybe cause she didn't get a special set reflecting her powers like everyone else in the family.
The pose mirabel has in brunos vision makes me think of her being defiant and makes sense with her standing up to abuela
The flower pose Isabela destroyed in her song is posed like Abuela.
It's sad how scared Isabela and Luisa look when abuela starts yelling at mirabel blaming her for their own actions.
Casita waving bye to mirabel before the doors protecting her fall down
Antonio smirking asking if that's bruno when he already knows lol
Dolores shoving camillo about knowing bruno was around and camillo with the offended "I didn't even contradict you right now wtf" face
The priest that sang about brunos prediction giving him a thumbs up while sporting his bald head
Mirabel gets to have her ceremony again with the new door knob and she's not walking through the villagers with their expectations but instead with her family telling her she's done so much already
Casita is in the ending family picture at the end in portrait form in the back
anyway this movie is great and I cried like 3 times in a row everytime I think this is the saddest part another comes 😢

Of all the popular Eggman headcanons which one do you hate the most? I hate the ones that say he replaced most of his organs with machines like yeah yeah I respect everyone's ability to have their own interpretations and all that but I'm just like nooo ffhgfgdg I wanna cuddle a squishy mustache man and feel his heart beating 😢 I want my evil dictators to be warm and soft
Honestly, it's pretty hard to choose just one because there are quite a few rather popular ones I've seen over the years that I don't feel suit him, suit other versions such as Boom Eggman more, go against canon information, or are just really bad in every way. I don't really talk about headcanons that I hate so I can avoid drama but I can say a couple of notable ones that always irk me.
I don't like the idea that he used to be really thin, have a completely different body and facial structure and lacked all the iconic prominent features that make him who he is- to the point that he looked like an entirely different person. If he didn't resemble his classic design in any way as a child and a younger adult then it wouldn't make any sense at all! It's very unrealistic.
I also don't like the idea that he was once a good guy that wanted to do good and the idea that he's evil because he's trying to avenge Gerald. There's no evidence that he ever had good intentions and with how selfish his plans are to rule the world, build his empire and Eggmanland, and have the world recognize his brilliance, it's very clearly not a plan to honor and avenge his grandfather lol
And I don't like the idea that he secretly has insecurities when he's never been shown to, his confidence and self love is real, he knows he's perfect! In the games he's always expressed his love for himself in such an honest way and has never once had doubts about his appearance and genius, so I don't know where people get it from or why they'd want it to be true.
There are a few more different ones that I could mention but I want to avoid accidentally causing drama or heated debates over them like I have accidentally in the past, so I try to refrain from sharing my thoughts on them most of the time 👉👈 XD
I also feel the same way about the idea of him being non-human/cyborg/robotic with red and black eyes, robotic limbs and organs, etc. I immensely prefer for him to be 100% natural, it's something I really love about game canon Eggman over other versions! It makes his intelligence and strength much more impressive because there's no possibility of it just being due to cybernetics, instead of his natural skills and qualities.
And I want him to be squishy and warm inside and out too, not with any cold hard metal anywhere! He loves robotics but has never displayed any interest in applying it to himself. I feel he'd only do that if he absolutely needed to and there have been no signs of that being the case. He doesn't need to be non-human or a cyborg just because of his unique appearance, I imagine that he's a human with the beautiful and unique Robotnik family genes and also an inherited gigantism type condition that makes him larger than the average human, but human all the same!
Luckily, game canon has always been on our side! He's always been stated and shown to be purely human and 100% so, instead of a cyborg/robot or anything else. And him showing off more of his beautiful body in Tokyo 2020 shows that he doesn't have any visibly robotic parts. His lower half doesn't have anything of the sort either because of the moments he's been seen with precious belly jiggle. He looks very soft and cuddly to me and I'd love to give him a big loving squeeze with the biggest hugs heheh 💜💕💖
And there's no reason to believe that game Eggman would be hiding mechanical organs if he doesn't have robotic parts on the outside either, so I'm definitely not on board with that concept either. They're all entirely natural too unless canon were to say otherwise. I feel that he'd value his natural organs such as his big smart brain and his heart that keeps his magnificent self alive too much to do it when he doesn't have to.
I love the thought of his organs being impressively larger than average too, so even though he's evil he has a big heart in the literal sense, it's just a big cold dark one, as he has described it! XD And it can be heard and felt very well even through his soft chest as a result. It would make such a lovely pillow with a beautiful heartbeat. I'd love to listen to it while cuddling and think about how he's a wonderful living breathing being. 🥰💜
Those that headcanon that they're mechanical don't realize how sweet and precious it is for them to be natural like that! I can imagine that Eggman truly values his body's natural form because he's very in love and proud of himself for being just the way he is. I'm not convinced that he'd want to make any huge alterations to it like that because there's never been any evidence that he'd want to change it in any way in general.
I also think that his eyes being a natural beautiful icy blue is much more beautiful and precious too, I'd love to take off his glasses when he doesn't need to see too well and constantly admire their stunning color. I headcanon that he has very poor eyesight and light sensitivity but that's part of what his shaded glasses are for, he doesn't need to alter his eyes! I adore him canonically having blue irises and white sclera in the games. 💙
As far as the games show, he isn't robotic or a cyborg like other versions have been and that's yet another thing that makes game Eggman my favorite above others. He's a very real and organic being with a special interest in robots but also loves the perfect natural form he was blessed with from birth, so I don't believe he'd want to change it. After thirty years I don't think they'll ever change it in the games and I'm glad. 💕

Oh man. I just got to the point where Artur told Tilrey that it was him who made a split-second decision to leave him behind when Malsha escaped. The touch about Tilrey saying, "Oh maybe you just got to the apt too early or too late, I was at the gym before..." and Artur saying, "No, I saw your boots in the cold room with melting snow on them," was just 💔
I can see Artur wanting to seize a chance to separate Tilrey from Malsha. Thinking he's helping him. "So what happened? Did the Island Party take you in?" Oh Artur...
If this is definitely what happened, I say Artur definitely made the wrong choice. Though Malsha was evil and def wasn't easing up his mindfucking (and literally fucking) of Tilrey, I say the 3 subsequent years with the Island Party were worse than if he'd gone with Malsha - as Artur said, Malsha had less power in his new locale and Tilrey could've eventually escaped.
Instead, Tilrey got the harm of abandonment, grief, IntSec, and 3 years of various ritual gangrapes, uncontrollable multiple partners, dehumanization, and brutalization with objects, fists, & others by Linden. This continued to affect him all his life: overhearing himself being described in humiliating ways at Council meetings for decades, his own son being shown porn pics of Tilrey that he'd been so upset to be forced to do in the first place (that one hurt me 😢). Tilrey creates an impressive role for himself (his intelligence & strength put to work) and may even be the savior taking down the whole system. But.... I bet he could've found a way to that path through escape from Malsha in Harbour. Poor guy.
(Also agree with you that it's hard to believe Malsha didn't actually want to inflict this on Tilrey. I can't believe Artur, knowing Malsha as he does, would apparently interpret Malsha's reaction at being told he couldn't bring Tilrey as heartbroken?! Maybe Malsha was disappointed because he wanted to see Tilrey's face as he told him he's abandoning him and describe the abuse/fate he'll have now 🤷‍♀️. That said, Tilrey was still very young & they'd "only" had 2 years together, so maybe Malsha was just sad to lose such a hot piece of ass with a constantly distraught mind.)
I think you're right, Artur made the wrong choice, even as he tried to help! Tilrey could have been so happy in Harbour. He could have healed from what Malsha did to him—not quickly or easily, but it would have made a difference.
But Malsha's escape to Harbour was a bit of a leap in the dark: Neither he nor Artur knew much about what to expect. Malsha had lived there as a diplomat, but that was basically living in a walled Oslov compound. He and Artur might both have imagined that he would have more control over Tilrey in Resurgence than was actually possible, or that Tilrey would be too afraid to escape him. Oslov propaganda paints everywhere that isn't Oslov as lawless and terrifying, and even Malsha might have been subconsciously influenced by that.
Then there's the factor of Malsha's pure possessiveness. I do think he wanted more time with Tilrey and didn't want Verán to have his "property." I can imagine him debating the issue. He is a control freak, so he might have trouble knowing someone else was hurting Tilrey and he (Malsha) could neither control nor even observe the process.
OTOH, Malsha was also the one who called Tilrey "the key to Oslov," which could be taken as a premonition of Tilrey eventually leading the rebellion—or just a lucky guess. I do think that if Malsha were still alive by the time the rebellion came to fruition and could know how Tilrey turned out, he would be very pleased and attempt to take full credit for shaping Tilrey into a weapon to take down the system. Because he's just that twisted!
