#hi. it’s me

[pwurrz]

yakumo doesn’t remember what happened last night that got him into this position. all he remembers is having a nightmare, quincy comforting him (which, as yakumo quickly found out, he’s very unexpectedly good at!), and then promptly falling asleep from exhaustion.

he doesn’t remember, at any point, quincy getting into bed next to him, curling up around him protectively, and using him as a pillow.

but.. this is his bed. perhaps he invited quincy to.. share the bed with him, and he was too tired at the time to remember it? that could be what happened. yakumo remembers he can do some pretty embarrassing things when he’s sleepy, especially when it’s his brumation period.

but yakumo just didn’t think he and quincy were that close! he wasn’t even sure if quincy really even liked him or just tolerated his presence! sure, they had spent ample time together since becoming associated, but he found the forest guardian to be incredibly hard to read at times. his quiet nature and stoic, hardly changing expression made it difficult for yakumo to guess what he was thinking, and his anxiety often filled in the gaps.

which is exactly what’s happening now.

yakumo can’t deny he’s incredibly comfortable, wrapped securely in quincy’s embrace with his face pressed snugly against the forest guardian’s bulky chest. but his mind can’t stop reeling, terribly shy about being in such close proximity to the other man.

he tries to wiggle free from out of quincy’s arms, giving into his serpent nature, but quickly finds that impossible as his squirming only causes the other man to wrap his arms even tighter around yakumo’s waist.

quincy lets out a displeased grunt, and yakumo freezes. the last thing he wanted was for quincy to wake up! he thought he was a heavy sleeper! daring to look up at the man currently holding him ‘hostage’, yakumo is met with a sleepy amber gaze staring back at him quizzically. yep, he’s definitely awake.

yakumo whimpers, ducking his head and accidentally burying his face in quincy’s chest as a result. he feels his cheeks burn and he just knows even the tips of his ears are bright red from embarrassment. he can still feel quincy’s gaze on him, so he decides to break the silence before he combusts from the awkwardness of the situation.

“u-um.. m-mr. quincy? i-i’m not.. mr. eiden so.. c-could you let me go? please?”

quincy blinks a few times, seemingly not used to be spoken to so soon after waking up. what he says next does nothing to quell the butterflies in yakumo’s stomach, especially considering how deep and rough his voice is first thing in the morning.

“…i know. you’re enjoying it though, aren’t you?”

he doesn’t let yakumo answer, considering the mortified squeak he lets out as good enough of a reply. quincy moves one arm from around the serpent’s waist and wraps it around his shoulders instead, using his hand to gently encourage yakumo to nuzzle his head back into his chest.

“too early. go back to sleep.”

and with that, quincy’s out like a light, leaving yakumo to deal with a whirlwind of emotions completely on his own.

on one hand, he still has absolutely no idea how he ended up in this predicament, or what happened last night that lead to this.

on the other, he can’t deny that he feels very safe and secure wrapped in quincy’s arms like this. it doesn’t look like he’ll be escaping anytime soon, and he hardly gets to sleep in. he can feel the previous night’s exhaustion coming back to him, the warmth of the forest guardian’s embrace overpowering his anxious mind.

it wouldn’t hurt, just this once, to give into these.. irresponsible and quite frankly embarrassing desires, would it?

^ my girlfriend era

[inkskinned]

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

The cat and the dad she said she "didn't want"

[lesbxdyke]

I could think of no better way to share the news than this!

So when I was 17, my cat went missing and I'd given up hope of ever seeing him again.

Until on Monday, 27th of May, 2024, my friend sent me a FB post asking 'isn't that your mother?' about the person named on the microchip.

Here he is! 16 years old, and found safe, twelve whole years after he went missing!

Yesterday (Tuesday the 28th of May, 2024) I went to the rescue that had him, and I reclaimed my boy, renaming him Artie! (He'd originally been called 'Cat' because my mother and I couldn't decide on a name)

He's home safe with me now, currently inhabiting my bathroom and purring up a storm every time someone goes in there!

I'll be doing slow introductions between him and my current cat to give them the best possible chance of living in harmony!

Here's some pictures of Artie once we let him out of the carrier:

i love this team so much. this dude ballerina twirled around the first defender who came at him and then hurdled backwards over the next one, an entire grown ass man, like it was nothing. like he's in a goddamn sports anime. unbelievable
