#he'll eat eel lmao

[utsuboh]

❝ jellied , anguilles au vert , jangeo-gui , unadon , smoked . . . which one sounds the best ? ❞ this is not an actual threat . 100% not a real threat .

" you know, i'm partial to steamed and peppered. though unadon is certainly delicious hahaha, so long as you use the appropriate type of meat. "

unprompted / always accepting

[mochinomnoms]

Apparently, shrimps and eels commonly have a symbiotic relationship. The eel protects the shrimp, and the shrimp eats any parasites off the eel!

The devs probably knew that when they decided to have Floyd call the player "Shrimpy," but now I'm imagining Floyd light up in joy and snickering the first time you pick off a bit of lint from his suit. It becomes an inside joke to him, and he starts ignoring anything that might be stuck on him so his friend can do their "job" lmao.

Naturally, Jade notices and gets in on the bit. Since he hikes in the woods, there's bound to be ticks and such! Sometimes, he has "no other choice" than to ask for your help since "Azul is busy, " and "Floyd always rips the bug apart trying to pull it off." These things are hard to reach and take out in one piece, better safe than sorry, right? And whenever you do the twins just give each other a Look like: the Reference is Referencing.

It's incredibly funny to them when you start taking after your namesake. Floyd especially thinks it's funny, as you said he'll leave himself dirty in anticipation of his shrimp. He'll even start to purposely get scuffed up in a fight (that he wins) or from parkouring so that you'll fuss over him and tend to his scratches and scrapes. You're so focused and your tongue is poking out, it's so cute! Jade notices, and similarly starts roughing himself up during his hikes so that you too will tend to him. After all, he can't ask Azul since he won't let him in the lounge while covered in dirt and plants, and your dorm is on the way back to his dorm anyways. Won't you be a dear little shrimp?

Shrimps provide this service in exchange for protection and food from eels in the wild, though. And they're not ones to leave a favor unpaid. So expect them to buy you an extra drink or sandwich at lunch. If you happen to come to the lounge, Floyd's asking you to taste test this dish he made for a new menu (it happens to be one of your favorite foods). Jade is inviting you over for tea time, which blends that he made with you in mind. And protection? Well, who's going to mess with you when you have two over 6 foot eels with sharp teeth and sharper grins hovering over your shoulder with their yellow eyes glaring daggers into their soul?

No one, trust me. You're confused as to why they're doing this, or why there's been an emphasis on referring to you as their cleaner shrimp, but you're getting food and protection from it so you don't bring yourself to care too much.

Ateez as Types of Everyday Fluff

Hongjoong: the type to kiss something off of your lips rather than wipe it away with his hand

Joongieeee

I know that he is one of the members who hates kisses the most

but not with his partner

just thinks kissing the members is cringe

anyway if you two are eating together or maybe having a snack while sitting on the couch

doesn't care if it's in public or not

if you get something on the side of your mouth and dont notice it?

swoops in so fast to kiss it away

and you'll just kind of stare at him dumbfounded because he's not much for PDA

and he'll just smirk and shrug while licking his lips

"you had something there. but i got it for you :)"

Seonghwa: the type to say "but what about me" when you're cuddling a plushie

picture this

you're sitting on the couch waiting for Seonghwa to bring some snacks to the living room for movie night

and you got a squishmallow (lol my real life mixing with my delusions get me outttt)

and you're hugging it and stuff bc soft

and when he comes back he stops and stares at you

one because it's super cute, but two because... where he gon sit?

will literally drop all the snacks on the table and pout at you

if you ask what's wrong he's literally just gonna rip the plushie from your hands and fling it (lmao yk the video of him throwing the bean bag)

but then lowkey feels bad and brings it back to you

will allow the plushie to remain on the couch but it must watch as you snuggle him instead

Yunho: the type to pull you closer in his sleep

YUYU SWEET BOY

whenever you two share a bed he's gotta be touching you

swears he won't fall asleep if you don't snuggle

when he does fall asleep though, I feel like he's the type to roll around and fidget a lot

and if you move away or he moves away?

he might not wake up but he's gonna grope the bed until he finds you

just kind of flopping his hands and arms everywhere until they land where they should

he won't pull you to him though, he'll pull himself to you

and just nuzzles his lil nose in your neck and it tickles because he's snoring and letting out lil baby puffs of air

Yeosang: the type to bully you

bullies you in the cute, cringey way

like will take you to the aquarium and point at the wolf eel and be like omg your twin

or if you walk by a garbage can he's like omg it smells like your morning breath

omg this reminds me of you (hands you literally the ugliest shirt you've ever seen)

curses your own two ears with his insults

but he's also so giggly and cute about it

it's impossible to be mad

and he always makes sure you know he's joking

whether because he's scared he'll hurt your feelings, or because he's scared you'll hurt him

the world may never know

San: the type to give you his plushie to hold

polar opposite of Seonghwa

if you're sitting together playing a video game or watching a movie or just chilling

and he has to get up for some reason

he doesn't like the idea of leaving you by yourself even for one minute so he'll be like

baby i'll be right back hold Shiber

and when he first does this it's kind of like ???? lol ok????

but then you realize that he just wants you to have company

he always wants you to know that he's thinking of you even when you're apart

does that mean i have to think of you going to the bathroom rn

NO DONT THINK ABOUT THAT

WELL YOU SAID TO HOLD SHIBER WHILE YOU PEE

lmao

Mingi: the type to feed you the last bite of his food

you guys are getting to the end of a meal together

and he's noticed you eyeing his food the whole time as if you didn't have your own

he'll be super dramatic about it and be like

OH WOOWWW

IM SOOO FULLLLL

SO FULFILLING

I COULDNT POSSIBLY EAT ONE MORE BITE

and will look at you, and stretch and yawn and rub his tummy

and then offer you his fork

"finish it for me?"

Wooyoung: the type to do nothing with you

i know that sounds weird

but he just enjoys your company

does not care if theres an activity involved or not

just wants to be around you

you two could just lay together and talk

or even lay together and say nothing at all

i know he's our hyperactive boy

but since he runs a million miles a minute he really loves when he can savor the slow, peaceful moments with you

Jongho: the type to drop you off at work

wants to be there for you even when you don't need him

also enjoys the little time he can spend with you, even when you're half asleep in his passenger seat

likes to be the last person you see before you go into work

he likes to think that you'll have a better day that way

like he's some sort of good luck charm (he is)

also sees himself as an acts of service kind of guy

loves to do things for you

little things you'd never complain about, but still appreciate when they're done for you

[merakiui]

Hi!! I'm the anon who asked about the shrimp!mer and floyd thing yesterday… Thanks for being willing to hear me out :D!! Symbiosis makes me sooo <33

I like to think that Shrimp mer and Eel mer as species have a symbiotic relationship that goes waaay back and, at this point, it's almost instinctual to seek each other out. Shrimps are one of the smallest mercreatures and easy prey, and it's practically necessary for them to form a bond with an Eel to survive, which will always put them at a disadvantage in the agreement, but :') It's protection from other mers / fish in return for caretaking abilities. I think this would include cleaning parts of their body they cannot reach themselves, but also a natural adeptude to taking care of and healing wounds, or being able to tell whether certain food is safe to eat or diseased. Shrimps also always swim backwards because of their body structure, so they're literally an extra pair of eyes to watch their back haha

There are probably quite a few more Shrimps than Eels, though, so I like to think there's usually some process of proving what you can offer in turn of protection (like medical knowledge, or something), but Floyd totally just picked you on a whim without even considering this at all HAHA And you've just stuck together ever since! You'd probably consider yourself REALLY lucky, though Floyd's family is rather infamous underwater as well :')

I just really enjoy the idea of Floyd thinking you're reaaally cute and messing with you while you're just trying to do what is essentially your job!! Trying to get you to use your tongue 'to clean his mouth' and offering to return the favour (and his tongue is so big you'd surely choke on it), or even going so far as to ask you to clean his slit or something… The whole dynamic of essentially your surivival being dependent on him and, because of this, you have such a tough time denying him anything makes me <33 I'm also just a big fan of Floyd genuinely tearing someone into shreds over trying to eat you lmao

Omg yes!!!! I love this dynamic...uuwuwwaaa the size difference between shrimp mer reader and floyd is too cute!!! He dotes on you so much because you're just too cute and defenseless. Floyd absolutely tears anyone in half for trying to eat or hurt you. No mercy whatsoever, but he's quick to brighten when he sees you and he's always pleased when he knows you're unharmed. It boosts his pride and ego knowing you depend on him and he can help you in return for all of the things you do to help him.

But of course he is definitely a tease about it as you wrote! Floyd has the biggest smirk on his face when he asks you to clean his mouth with yours or to pay extra attention and care to his slit. <3 he's absolutely shameless, but in return he'll take good care of his shrimpy!

I also like to think he just drags you around with him wherever he goes. You're so much smaller than him, so it's easy for him to grab your arm and just drag you through the water like you're a handbag. >_< he gets really excited to explore shipwrecks with you (he loves to scare you). You're practically an honorary member of his family what with how the Leeches know you so well. And I think Floyd would be so territorial over you. Aside from Jade, who he will most likely share you with, no one else is allowed to touch his shrimpy.

[chthonicgodling]

Røkia moodboard by the way💞

teeny handful of specific design inspo pics collected over this whole year even though I had started with a loose idea of how I wanted him to look immediately when EeL got pregnant - plus many components of Tory that made its way in to him. notably in Tory’s spikes n’ spines and color palette etc etc

Literallly I designed him in the wayyy beginning of the year and. then. when Moo Deng dropped into the public consciousness fenixe and I???? Shrieked????? (And I updated my inspo folder LOL). on that note I have do have more lil doodles to post later in the week don’t worry

Okay what else what else!! Røkia posting at last!!! LIVE FROM ELYSIUMMMM

Røkia is wiggly and snuggly and SO00O CUUUTE and he mewls and purrs and kneads like a cylinder shaped kitten. he also squeaks and chirps like a bird. is this not all dragons are, anyway?

bear in mind he's fully sentient and cognizant by the way like!!! he literally is just a dragon shaped baby! He'll be able to fully SPEAK probably the way Fjöer can, and the way Fen and Jor could when they were animal shaped - although who knows I haven't made a decision about this like. sometimesDragons can fully talk!! Idk we'll just see. Either way his parents and siblings will all be able to seamlessly understand him.

his wings right now are crumply and soft - they'll harden, the way a butterfly's does post chrysalis.

hmm what else can I share!!! They picked his name in August. Rokia loosely translates to, quoth EeL himself, something to take care of- to protect.

Maci and him immediately got into an argument over pushing the nickname Røcky onto him fgkfkgkgkgkg EeL said absolutely NOT

(Maci and Tory don't know this but), EeL's been naming his recent children in matching sets haha. He has Fenris and Fjöer, Eisa and Einmyria, Vali and Vrykolakas, Sleipnir and Saunn... and now Rane and Rokia. The only names he'd offered them were "H” N," "L," or "R" - Hela, Nari, and Libby will get theirs next time around uwu

OH ALSO- Figuring out on the fly wtf Røkia was going to eat once he was born??!! (He figured out how to nurse its fine) but that led to this featured this wonderful Canon moment -

Maci: “What do dragons usually eat?”

Tory:  “People.”

Loki: “People, livestock.”

Maci: “Ohh, cutie pie’s too little to eat any sheep and people yet.”

😭 lmfao

What ELSSEEEEE um!!! the kids on either side haven’t met him yet :-) he’s so fucking cute that Rane and Neo will certainly come around

I think that’s it for now. oh it’s so exciting to FINALLYYYYY just say Røkia instead of being vague lmao AHH,, BOUNCESS AROUNDDDDDDD

[quartztwst]

HIIIII QUARTZ!!! :3

can i ask you random questions every day? :D

so like would you rather eat octopus right in azul face, or eat eel in front of both floyd & jade? ^.^

also can i be 🪷 anon? i love your humor and drawings, youre like my fav twst creator of tiktok! <3

Awww thanksss and I don't mind questions everyday! I actually welcome them!!

But I'd rather eat octopus in front of Azul if it's to intimidate him. I WOULD NOT EAT IT IN FRONT OF THE TWINS!! I would BE EATEN BEFORE EATING THE EEL.

I bet all three of them are well aware that sea creatures are eaten on land, so they wouldn't actually question it if it's just because you were hungry. But to INTIMIDATE them? DEFINITELY CHOOSING AZUL. At least he would probably be annoyed and walk off. The TWINS WOULD DEFINITELY TEASE ME TO DEATH.

They would be like:

Floyd: Awww, Shrimpy thinks they're sooo tough just because they're eating eel in front of us. I eat eel too lmao. Ur not special.

Jade: Would you like some mushrooms with that dish? *proceeds to sprinkle on some suspicious shit on your food*

And then they drag me into the ocean

LIKEEE I THINK AZUL WOULD BE WAY SAFER. He'll probably be like:

Azul: Can you get the fuck out of my office

And also yeah!! U can be 🪷 anon!!

[parad-ice-lostandfound]

Also, those characters kissing you even when sick is so true lol. Some just wouldn't care, others don't think they can get sick, im sure atleast one would have the thought process "if im sick too then I can care for her and then have her care for me in return"

Lmao exactly!

Like, Mammon's definitely all "Oh, a stupid human cold can't do anything to the great Mammon!" And then immediately wake up the next day complaining of his throat feeling funny the next day. My beloved babygirl <3

Diavolo will get out the puppy eyes like "🥺🥺 Please🥺🥺 want kith 😚" ignoring your protests, to the point where Barbatos just gets fed up and goes "let him fuck around and find out" lmao. And he does, because like you said, he doesn't think he can get sick, and even if he does, that'll mean he'll get pampered by the love of his life <3

Floyd will squeeze you till you agree to letting him kiss you. He wants kisses shrimpy!!! >:(

Another one who thinks he's immune to sore throat because he's a merperson. Gets so whiny and pouty and is perpetually in a bad mood when he gets sick 'cause he feels horrible, much to the amusement of Jade and exasperation of Azul. Feels better if you take care of him tho. I love this unhinged little eel <3

Kalim, ah, this ball of sunshine, he does not care. His reasoning will be something sweet like "Kisses make everything feel better!! I'll kiss you so you can get well faster." Like babe, I love you, but Jamil is going to kill me if you get sick. Please keep them lips away <3

Rook is... just Rook. He'll wax poetic about how your cheeks and nose look divine with the red hue that decorates them, and how your hoarse voice has a tragic sort of beauty. He simply cannot resist trying to kiss you, and he will succeed. After all, the hunter never misses. And once he falls sick, he'll be your personal damsel in distress to take care of! Isn't it simply marvelous?

Malleus. The love of my life. This is one who is pouty and whiny about not getting to kiss you. What do you mean he cannot kiss you? Do you not love him anymore child of man?? Grumpy Malleus mode activated.

When he gets sick, he's surprised. Like darling, if you kiss me when I'm sick, what do you think you'll get?? Immunity?? This ain't a vaccine, it's the consequences of your own actions <3

And then, I'll make each of them eat the mysterious herbal powder my grandma's been feeding me since yesterday evening that makes me feel like I'm gonna turn into real life Spiderman lol (in all seriousness it works wonders, because I don't feel like I'm dying anymore. Ayurveda for the win!)

[boneyard-lovers]

i h8 youtube >:( - 231018

theyre doing like anti adblock shit and its actually pissing me off. i think i found a way around it or smtg cause i logged out of my account and then logged back in and i dont see the popups anymore so whatever. ill die if i see them again though

i talked to my mum about guitar and she said to just text him cause he'll probably be chill about it, and shes probably right but im still kinda scared.

we got dinner from a resteraunt today, we brought it home to eat. i got eel donburi, it was really good. we also got sodas, i got a thing called cc lemon, i got the pineapple flavour, it was probably one of the best sodas ive ever had lmao. 10/10 would get again.

i miss hanging out with people irl. very excited to see my partners again. <3

song for today is sukimakaze yo by sakurazaka46
