#i also hc him as someone who Can do yoga but hates doing it alone bc its boring

[samarecharm]

I should add poledancing to the list of odd talents that Akira has but has no business having due to growing up in a small suburban town. I only had access to it bc i had a YMCA that had a MASSIVE gym (in a criminally underfunded part of the city); there were poles put up alongside some other structures to allow counselors to make up some shit for us to do lmao

Hes got a flair about him; speaking from experience, it is FUN to do gymnastic shit like that, and its really really REALLY good for ur core. Other things on the list are basic gymnastics (he hates that shit tho, the classes he took sucked ass), Parkour (loves this; less about running and more about utilizing ur core and bracing for falls), and Knife Flipping/Spinning. Theyre all odd things that coincidentally ended up being VERY good experience for the metaverse :) YEAH the metaverse makes it easier to pull off tricks, but he already knew how to do all those things; you cant get Ryuji or Yusuke to spin kick off a pole wo having them fall and bust their ass- Its ALL skill babey

Cute/Silly Things He Does in a Relationship

Nightcrawler x Reader

A little hc requests! A compilation of silly things he probably does that are either cute or chaotic x)

Warnings: none!

⚜️ Kurt’s a silly guy! It’s part of why everyone loves him! Or hates him…

⚜️ But it also means there’s a lot of shenanigans involved if you’re in a closer relationship with him… some you may be involved in 🤭

⚜️ The tail 💙 It’s probably smacked you in the face before when you walk into a room only for him to be doing some form of gymnastics on the ceiling!

⚜️ And it’s probably blindfolded you while you’re busy doing something in the library 😘

⚜️ If he’s sitting atop the refrigerator or a bookcase, he’s absolutely twitching his tail in the way of everything you need 😇

⚜️ Sure, handholding is nice, nuzzling is nice, cuddles are nice, but while you’re probably used to the tangle of arms and legs, the tail has to hug you too!

⚜️Will absolutely bamf you away! He’s probably only just hugged you in the yard after being separated for a while and now you’re being pulled into your bed!

⚜️ Tbh I like to think that sometimes, if he gets too excited, he’ll end up teleporting without meaning to 😅 especially if you run and jump on him, who knows where you’ll end up! Hopefully in the bed, but you’ve probably jumped into his arm only to be falling into the pool moments later 🤧

⚜️ Or if he’s really excited he might just bamf circles around you until you’re both dizzy 😵‍💫

⚜️But the teleportation thing isn’t all bad!

⚜️ He’ll turn a sweet kiss on the floor into a romantic kiss by the lake, and he can set up a picnic in the most secluded spots 😘

⚜️ Well, hopefully that quick warp through time and space doesn’t make you queasy for a moment afterward 😅

⚜️ Whether you’re sad or mad, he’ll probably also poof you away, be it back to your room, maybe by the lake, or maybe he’s an occasional jerk and without any reason just poofs you somewhere mid-conversation 😒

⚜️Maybe he was jealous and just wanted you alone to himself 😌

⚜️No alcohol? No money? No problem! You stand guard in the hallway while Kurt poofs into… Logan’s room 🙂 the stash isn’t exactly high-dollar, but it definitely will be once Logan tracks you both down 😅

⚜️ He’s probably also poofed in and out of someone’s garden or something to get a really pretty flower for you 💐😃

⚜️At least he can never cheat at hide-and-seek? The bamfing is too loud 😔

⚜️Knows he has fangs and absolutely bites with them >:3 not hard!!!

⚜️ If you aren’t too scared of heights, he’ll probably decide to unofficially invite you to his aerobatics session at the last second🫡 At least you get lots of kisses?

⚜️ He’s a fluffy boy! So if you’re cold, you can count on him to wrap around you like an extra blanket!

⚜️ But because he’s a fluffy boy, he definitely looks like a wet kitten after a bath or a dip in the pool 🥺

⚜️ He can bend in weird ways, so if he’s doing yoga next to you on the rug, is it sweet or scary when he bends over backward to kiss you 😳

⚜️ If he’s asleep and you’re awake, it’s probably tempting to play with his tail that’s draped over you. It’s fine if you do! But Kurt’ll probably wrap it around your hand subconsciously 🥺

Barians: HC Masterlist

This is literally just a collection of headcanons I tend to reach for when writing the Barians, with a focus on the ones I used while writing the nothing is forever series on Ao3.

The Cat

The Barians adopted a cat because Alit wanted to. They named it Alcor, but no one actually calls her that. She likes Vector best because his body heat is perfect for snuggles.

In nothing is forever, Ally leads Vector on goose chases all around the Kamishiro mansion, which is how he gets to know about the different, varying rooms that the mansion has. It’s also how he finds the library he ends up moving into during of what can be salvaged.

Generally, Alit takes care of Ally, but Vector is the one who feeds her and plays with her the most.

The Community Centre/Gym

All of the Barians save for Vector go to the community centre, which is basically just a gym with a swimming pool and a spa, along with some other facilities. Here’s what they all do there:

Mizael does yoga and has a collection of leggings and sports bras as well as a fancy expensive personal yoga mat that he brings to every class because he refuses to use something someone else has sweated on. He also likes the treadmills for cardio.

Alit and Gilag generally stick to the kind of regime a body-builder would have, and love pushing themselves on the weights. Sometimes, when Alit is going through it, he pushes himself a bit too hard and is known to injure himself, so Gilag keeps an eye on him whenever he’s having a bad week. They have protein shakes and love trying new recipes at home with their fancy expensive blender (yes they splurged on a Vitamix).

Merag sometimes joins Mizael for yoga, but generally likes going for the spa treatments the track for running. She also likes lounging by the pool in her bikini, reading romance novels and drinking smoothies.

Nasch only goes when Yuuma and co. drag him out, but he’s known to get weirdly competitive over squash and tennis, anything that involves a racket.

Durbe literally just uses the elliptical, breaks a sweat five minutes in, and goes to find Mizael who is too busy meditating to give a shit that he wants to go home.

When Vector finally starts going with everyone, I imagine he’d like the pool a lot and just sitting on the edge letting his feet and calves dip in. He refuses to do anything like water aerobics and gets dragged into doing HIIT exercises with Alit who only wants to help him get his muscles back after being sedentary for so long. He does yoga with Mizael sometimes but hates it because he’s too fidgety to stay in some of the positions for that long (though he did like the one class where they were in constant movement between poses, not that he’ll admit it).

Clothes and Fashion

The Barians (save for Nasch and Merag) aren’t exactly aware of this era’s gender customs (and also don’t care about them) when it comes to clothes, so they kinda just buy whatever they think is comfortable/looks good.

For example, Mizael buys sports bras and leggings for exercise, not because they’re functional but because he thinks they look better on him than t-shirts and shorts. For that matter, Mizael also owns at least one dress and a maxi skirt, because he wore a skirt for centuries as a Barian Lord and, quite frankly, isn’t about to stop now.

Vector would also own skirts if he ever actually went shopping or wore anything other than hoodies and sweats. He’s kinda the definition of a NEET, and has stopped looking after himself for the most part. If he went shopping, he’d definitely buy a sarong for the beach to wear over swim trunks.

Alit found out that crop tops exist and immediately bought ten to show off his hard-earned abs. Most of his clothes are athleisure, shorts and tees and sweats and tracksuits that are super comfy for working out and playing soccer. He also owns those tank tops where armholes are super exaggerated because “side-abs are good abs too.”

Gilag can’t find much that fits him, so everything is either too baggy or too tight. He has The Hulk Problem, and generally doesn’t buy expensive things because he’s afraid they’ll just rip or tear anyway. He also owns one crop top because Alit thought it’d be cool to match at the gym. They’re really cute when they wear them together, but everyone thinks they’re lame as hell.

Durbe literally dresses the same as he always does, and has a collection of scarves because he is literally always cold for some reason. Sweater vests also became a staple. He really embodies the old-school idea of “nerd.”

We already know how Nasch and Merag dress so nothing new there. Nasch is still a try-hard. Rio is cute as hell.

Interactions

Merag and Mizael share beauty tips. Mizael insists on keeping his hair long and dying it blonde, so Merag introduced him to good haircare to keep it hydrated and soft and healthy. Mizael also wears some makeup (mostly mascara to look more awake and CC cream to look healthier), which he picked up from Rio. They watch beauty guru YouTube drama together and increasingly complicated braiding tutorials.

Vector also knows how to makeup because in his depression, he’s 100% gone down the YouTube hole of related videos. Because of this, he’s a master at winged liner (he stole Merag’s to practice).

Alit and Gilag are obviously besties, hands down no different from canon they’re just supportive bros who do lots together. Though Alit has broken off a lot since becoming human, like joining the school’s soccer team and having had at least two girlfriends and a billion crushes.

Gilag and Vector are friends. Tentatively. Gilag likes cooking and always cooks for the whole household, but makes a special effort to make sure Vector’s eating properly by always making food he likes or food that’s easy on the stomach. They watch cartoons together and don’t talk a lot, but they’re very comfortable around each other. Gilag sings along to theme songs and Sanagi songs and Vector doesn’t judge him. Gilag’s also the only one who knows where the secret library in the mansion is because Vector trusts him enough for that. Gilag’s like, the one person Vector is incapable of being snarky or angry at.

Mizael used to have a crush on Durbe but got over it when he realized he’d always be the second choice next to Nasch. Nasch is gay for Yuuma so Durbe is perpetually alone. Of course, I always pair Vector up with either Merag or Mizael, but I’m staying away from including it in the nothing is forever series just because I hate the “depression is cured by relationship” trope and don’t want to fall into that.

Rio thinks Alit’s a hottie but sees him as more of a little brother than anything else. She’s like, his number one hype-woman and always talks him up to the girls he likes because she likes seeing how happy he is in relationships. She truly believes he’ll find The One.

Being Steve’s Daughter & Dating Peter

soooo i often see a lot of hc about how the reader is starks daughter but what about rogers???? hahaahha anyways enjoy and feel free to request anytime lovers <3

so i feel like there would SO MUCH RIVALRY between you and peter at first

bc he’s basically tony’s son and your steve’s daughter

cap wanted you to join the team ever since you showed interest in combat but he waited until you were about 7 to start training you 

so when you were 15, he started training you along with the other avengers

and when tony brought in peter after cw,, OOOOOHHOOOO he was a little pissed but also like ‘ok ok lets see what this kid could do’

peter was nevous bc OHIDSBHKJ THE AVENGERS!!!!

tony would be a proud dad after peter impressed everyone EXEPT for steve

who just kind of stood there and watched the kid dance through the air thinking about how his daughter could actually kick ass

so he says to tony ‘how about we put the kid up against (y/n)?’

and tony is like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ why not???

and you are already kind of sweaty, hair falling around your face, you’re in a sports bra (bc thats what all of the girls wore when they worked out and no one really cares because #equality)

you start walking over to peter an then u realized how adorable he is no wait extremely attractive

and he’s kind of in awe of you

you’re a girl. looking at him. walking towards him. going to fight him.

and he was already nervous enough but now he has to fight a beautiful girl and potentially hurt her so he’s like shit.

anyways, let the games begin….

you two start mirroring each other around the matt

peter throws a half assed swing at you bc he really doesn’t want to hit you

but you just kind of laugh and so does cap bc you’re about to kick spiderling’s ass

the rest of the team in kind of standing around the gym ready to see what happens, but they also know how well you can fight so they kind of feel bad for peter

you swing your leg to knock his down so he lands flat on his back with a low groan

you quickly jump on top of him so both of your thighs are on either side of his torso and your knees are digging into his biceps so he winces

you here tony grunt and look over your shoulder at your dad

and he gives you a little nod

tony’s mouth is wide open

peter thought it was a little awkward bc he was lowkey getting turned on so THIS KID introduces himself

“h-hi im peter”

you just chuckle a little and walk towards your dad and gives you a high five w the PROUDEST smile on his face

and that kind of how it all began

you would be in the gym wearing mainly sports bras and leggings or sometimes large t-shirts and yoga shorts

and he can’t keep his eyes off you bc DAMNNN

and you struggle too bc he almost NEVER wears a shirt

theres a lot of sexual tension is what im hinting at

you guys start talking about mainly combat or how messed up the world is

but then things get personal and you ask him about his home city and his friend at school

he REALLY wants to ask you out

but ya know, your dad is CAPTAIN FREAKING AMERICA who could break arms and legs and people in half bc of his strength 

he kind of hates himself that the only ‘date’ he thinks he’ll ever get with you is when the whole team in having dinner and you two sit across from each other

when y’all are sparing one day and he finally gets you to the ground, his mouth speaks before his mind can catch up with whats actually happening.

“when we aren’t trying to injure each other, doyouwanttogotolunch i mean you and me maybe, goandgetlunch?”

your heart started to race and your face became red and you flipped him over and pinned his arms above his head and shrugged your shoulders “yeah i would like lunch parker”

he asked tony for advice

because tony knew that it would piss off cap that spiderboy is going to go out with (y/n) rogers!!!!!!!!!!!!!

after a few more dates and awkward conversations yall have the bf gf titles and u gotta hide it for a little while

not really letting anyone know except for tony

annnnd one time when wanda read your mind

“YOU AND PETER HAVE MADE OUT OH MY GOD???????”

“HOW DID YOU KNOW WTF”

so after the titles have been exchanged and y’all have been together for a couple of months

dad!steve would barge into your room to find the two of you sleeping on each other

peters arms would be wrapped around you

and your head would be on his chest AWWWWW

steve has the urge to yell at y’all to get tf away from each other

but peter’s your first bf

and he wants to hear you introduce peter as your boyfriend to him

so he kind of backs out of the room

but he supports it

but he’s also protective as hell

like if u want alone time w peter

someone has got to be there in the room w y’all

“i can see you parker”

“right, sir. sorry.”

“peter you don’t have to say sorry you just kissed me.”

ohhhhh the amount of eye rolls

[timetogoslumming]

okay. we got to talking about headcanons tonight, and i got to rambling. so here are some of my newsies hcs.

spot

okay so spot is a vegetarian. know that. you'll pry veggie spot from my cold, dead hands. gay. just straight up gay. but it took him a long time to recognize that. he was raised by a single dad, and his mom is in prison, and he has a much older sister that he's not close to. (i actually have a really detailed backstory for him that im saving for a rainy day.) speaking of rainy days, he loves them. spot is very into that "treat your body like a temple thing". he does yoga. lifeguard. plays a lot of app games? like angry birds, temple run, etc. loves to read. depending on the au, he's either a law student or works in construction with jack. he's got some ptsd from Some Stuff That Happened Once. drives a big ass jeep with loud music, usually either rock or rap, blaring from the speakers. actually a really good rapper, but pretty much no one sees that. likes to read.

sarah

sarah is like 90% gay. she'll occasionally make out with a guy for fun, like with jack, but let's be real. when she decides to settle down, it's going to be with a lady. she and davey are twins. she's a botanist with a big interest in environmental conservation (science twins.) very sarcastic. she's the less compassionate twin.

specs

specs is nearly legally blind, but not quite there. he's a ridiculously slow driver. dad friend. bi. dancer at nyu. also plays baseball and the cello, and he's very athletic- he runs every day. specs is incredibly detail-oriented and responsible. also, he and jack are the oldest, and he's kind of jack's secret right hand man. a lot of people think it's race or crutchie before davey shows up, but no. it's actually specs, he just works in the wings. loves crime shows. he and romeo are really into the paranormal- like ghosts and stuff.

romeo

in my head, romeo is colombian, so i dont see him as any of the actors that played him. he's gay, but also ace, but flirts a lot just because he thinks it's fun. he and specs have been best friends forever (im not getting too into detail about that but keep reading my christmas au). romeo loves candy, and constantly has like, a bag of twizzlers or pixie sticks in his bag or something. he's really good at crafts, especially making friendship bracelets. like specs, loves the paranormal.

kath

kath has chronic migraines. she ids as queer. she wants to be a reporter, but has a very successful blog, as well. (like a long-form blog, not like tumblr) with a few thousand followers. very politically inclined, and she and elmer talk about politics a lot. she and jack dated for a while, and they had a legitimately good time, but things sometimes just dont work out, and thats what happened with them. kath also really loves youtubers and spends more time than she wants to admit watching makeup tutorials. her dad is pulitzer, but he and her mom never married, so her actual last name is plumber (her mom's maiden name) and she was raised by her and her stepdad, who she adores.

mush

okay so he's diabetic. (btw the mush fc i always have in my head is ephraim.) he's SUPER good with kids. like, they think he's an absolute superhero. he's really, really patient and tells really good stories. he's a big ol stoner. he and blink are best friends (sorry, i dont ship it!!) and he's quite a potty mouth. mush and blink are actually REALLY fratty. also, he plays guitar

albert

albo is colorblind. it gives him a variety of vision problems. albo is obsessed with cryptids: his favorite is bigfoot, and he's also very into aliens. favorite movies: space jam and the fast and the furious. albo is also dyslexic and adhd- he and jack bond over it. as a result, school really isnt his thing, and he just sort of wants to be a mechanic, because cars make sense to him and he loves them. then there's his whole backstory- two older brothers, one of whom is a marine, and then a half sister. his dad cheated on his mom and got the girlfriend pregnant, but he loves his sister a whole lot. albert likes to make a lot of jokes about his colorblindness. he is also pan or queer bc what is projecting, anyway? ummmmm................ he gets really frustrated by how he's treated because of his learning disabilities. he loves dogs and cities and loud noises. also, that boy is a mama’s boy

jack

jack has severe dyslexia, to the point where reading is EXTREMELY difficult and frustrating for him, so he just doesnt do it. he's also got adhd. he's an artist, but for his day job, he's a house painter. or sometimes just generally in construction, idk. i generally make him a painter. he does a lot of odd jobs. jack loves cartoons. his favorite show is bob's burgers. he also loves american ninja warrior. likes to think he's fearless but he's actually pretty scared of thunder. jack unironically loves nickelback

race

race is a future rocket scientist, obviously. his dream is to get people on mars. he's got severe adhd. he's constantly fidgeting, and his favorite fidget toys are tennis balls or rubiks cubes. ps he can solves a rubiks cube in under half a minute. loves the kardashians- especially khloe. used to do a lot of shoplifting, but grew out of it. scared of horses. not a huge fan of animals in general, actually. queer or pan. totally tells everyone that his favorite color is green, but it’s be real. it’s gold glitter. used to smoke like a chimney but quit, although it was a struggle. 

davey

gay. hecka gay. he realized that he was gay when he played soccer and realized that he didnt want to be the soccer player, he just WANTED the soccer player. loves animals but snakes especially. also really likes alligators? anxiety, but like, the kind of anxiety where if you try to talk to him, he'll get pissed. let him be alone. started as a business major for practicality but switched to zoology. RIDICULOUSLY sarcastic. very flirty. has had multiple relationships before jack. scared of heights. doesnt love horses, but he'll deal with them. loves lord of the rings more than almost anything. hates getting his hair wet. VERY good at mario kart. he used to speedrun it and at one point, he was 14th in the world. 

crutchie

okay so: crutchie's disability can be a few things, depending on  the universe im using, but i generally do it as either a degenerative disorder or a major injury that was never treated properly so it never healed. hates mornings. so much. terrible loser. will literally fight you if he loses. sarcastic. can be kind of an asshole. wants to be a runner. : ((( crutchie is THE best wingman. like, you’re trying to impress someone? call up the big leagues aka crutchie

elmer

sarcastic motherfucker. news junkie. super skeptical. questions everything. trouble with his eyesight. he's the kind of guy who replays arguments in his head thinking up comebacks he should have used. he'll text you at 3 am like "AND ANOTHER THING"

[orangewritesstuff]

Hello friend from the other side of the screen! Could I have hc of Drift, Rodimus, Brainstorm and maybe Skids who confess their feeling for their human crush, and the human were very suprised. (If they sat on a chair they would have fallen of or if they drank something they would spit it out kinda level of suprised) The human tells the that they do love the bot, but they never been in a relationship so they simply never thought anyone would have been interested in them.

Well, hello there! That is a very cute prompt you’ve got here! 

I hope it’s ok that I made drabbles (OR FREAKING ONE-SHOTS) out of it, I dunno how this happened :/ As always, sorry for the grammar. And, um, I’m not sure about Brainstorm’s part, it was hard for me somehow. But, enough of self-roasting. Enjoy, love!

Drift

Drift has been preparing for this moment for a long time. He liked you for a while now. You were sweet, kind, intelligent and a good friend to him, always willing to try yoga and meditations with him. How could he not fall for you? It was almost impossible! So, with some preparations, he was ready to make a confession. 

The ship stopped on a small planet. There was not much on it, very short trees and a lot of grassy hills. But, what was the best thing on it, there was an atmosphere, that was suitable for humans. Drift took you on a walk. He already knew that the sunset on this planet will begin in a few hours, and it will be as beautiful as it was on Earth.

He was calm, actually. Pretty calm for a bot, who was going to confess his feelings to his s/o.  You too were relaxed: Drift often offered you to walk with him, the conversation went smoothly and quietly, as always. There was nothing suspicious about the whole situation. 

When sunset started, you two sat on a hill and stopped talking for a moment to enjoy the view. However, Drift decided that it was the time. 

“Y/N?”

“Yeah?”

“I’ve brought you here for a reason, you know.”

“Oh? What reason?”

“I wanted to confess. To be… honest with you.” You didn’t even saw what was coming. “Y/N, I like you. Very much, to be honest. I think that it’s not even just sympathy. I think I fell in love with you.”

You swore to God and Primus, your jaw just literally dropped. Or it feels like it. Then, you almost choked on air, being a blushing mess already.

“F-fell in love? With me? Are you serious?”

“Well, I pretty sure I am… You don’t need to worry, I don’t want to force you into a relationship or anything like that! I just… thought it would be better if you at least knew” Oh, Drift. Sweet Drift. Of course, you liked him too. He was fun and calm at the same time, intelligent and gentle… He was everything you wanted to in a partner! And even more, to be honest.

“N-no, no, it’s okay! I-it’s fine” Oh, you’ve never stuttered so much in your life. “I like you too. Or, um, I’ve fallen for you too… It’s just… No one ever liked me. Or, if someone did, they never told me. I’ve never been in a relationship and I… I’ve never thought someone might like me that way”

Drift was clearly surprised for a moment, but then he smiled gently and chuckled. “It’s okay. I understand. It’s must’ve been so unexpected for you. But, um, I hope I didn’t scare you? We can take things slow if you want to.”

You still was blushing and a little bit astonished, but you smiled at him shyly. “Yeah… That would be great.”

“Maybe dinner at Visage then?” (it’s, like, Mirage’s version of swerve’s. I’m sorry, swerve, it’s just too noisy in your place)

“Sounds good to me”

Rodimus

Rodimus wasn’t as careless and as arrogant as everyone thought. He too could’ve been confused or scared to talk to someone he likes. Well, not exactly scared, of course! If he was, he would never talk to you, and he talked to you very often. He just was scared wasn’t sure how to confess to you. He even asked some bots on the ship… Their answers always have been the same: “Just do something romantic and then go for it!” But nothing seems to be romantic enough. You deserved something amazing, just as amazing as you were. But he couldn’t find the right thing to do!

So, now he felt like a fool, standing in front of your door with a bouquet of your favorite flowers (don’t ask how he found out which one is it and where he found it in space) ready to ask you on a date. But, of course, confession first. 

He knocked on the door, once again thinking that he, probably, should’ve used his holoform. Well, it was too late now, your doors already opened. You stood there in casual clothes. When you saw who was at the door, you were thankful that you were not in your pj’s. 

“Um, Rod! What brought you here? I-I thought you had work today?” Then you noticed bouquet. “Is that… f/f?”

“Yeah, well. I heard you liked them, so I get some. Do you like them?” He gave you the flowers.

“O-of course! They are beautiful.” You smiled shyly, inhaling the scent of flowers. “Um… Is there a reason, or..?”

“Yes. Well, sort of. It’s in honor of our first date”

Flowers fell off your hands. You stared in shock at Rodimus. “D-date?”

“You know. You are pretty, I’m pretty handsome. We were made for each other! …and also I like you, so”

“You like me?!”

“Is that a problem?”

“No! No, of course not! It’s not a problem, I like you, too, but... This is the first time someone asked me on a date.”

He looked surprised for a moment, but then he smirked happily and... smugly. “Don’t worry then. I’ll make sure this isn’t the last time.”

Brainstorm

Brainstorm wasn’t exactly the shy type. A little absent-minded because of his scientific nature, but never shy. Then why he is, on one hand, wanted to tell you about his growing feelings, on the other always found excuses not to do this? Maybe, he was just afraid of losing you on this crazy ship. Maybe, he thought that you, a human, wouldn’t want to date a giant scientist robot. But then he thought that this was just utterly stupid. He deserved some happiness, and, after some observation, he figured out that chance of you liking him too was high enough. 

So, he waited for a right moment. You were alone, looking on stars. He came to you with a joke to lighten the mood. Jokes led to a light conversation, conversation to a comfortable silence. He smirked to himself, looking at you. You were talking about something you’ve read recently, sparks in your eyes. You two were very similar, talking about your favorite things with such passion.

“So, what do you think about it, Brainstorm?”

“I think that I like you”

Your heart skipped a beat. Did you mishear? He couldn’t possibly say that he...

“I mean, you are very smart. And you are the only person on this ship who can appreciate my genius...”

Maybe you did mishear after all...

“I could not help but fall in love.”

You didn’t. Oh my god, you didn’t. Brainstorm just confessed to you. 

“So, what about you?”

“I... I-I... Oh, Primus, I think I’m going to fall.” Your knees were so weak, you really are going to fall.

“Wha- Oh no-no-no!” He quickly caught you, not letting you fall. You stared at him with wide eyes. “Well, I guess you have fallen for me too”

You gave out a nervous laugh. “Y-you’re a jerk.”

“I don’t think so.” He smiled.

“But you are right. I did fall for you. I just... I’ve never thought that you like me too! Heck, I’ve never thought anyone could like me!”

“Well, I do. Now, how about dinner at Swerve’s?”

Skids

It was hard to live without memories, really. Skids hated it. But there was always a bright side, and his bright side was his friends. Swerve, Brainstorm, Nautica, Rung and you, of course. Making new memories with all of them, with you - it was the best thing in his new life.

And you, oh you. You were amazing. Fun and sweet, intelligent and understanding. It’s like you were everything he could wish for in a dear friend. Well, “friend”. He thought that he forgot how to like someone, heck, how to love someone, and then you came into his life. 

But Skids never told you. It was hard for him and he didn’t know why. Everyone else already knew, and this was the worse. Even Rung told him to confess because he was “too nervous” about it. But this was the deal! He was too nervous to tell you!

Maybe, the fact that Skids drank some high-grade for courage, was not a good thing. He wasn’t drunk, it would have been not very pleasant, but still, he felt just a tiny bit woozy.

And the fact that you just came into Swerve’s wasn’t great at all. Or was it? After all, he was drinking for courage, and this courage he needed to tell you about his feelings. 

“Hey, guys. Swerve, Skids.” You smiled. “Can somebody give me a boost?” Skids chuckled and lifted you up on a counter.

“Whatcha doin’ here, eh?”

“Just wanted to hang out with you”

“Sounds good to me.”

You two talked for a while, joked for a while... He didn’t even notice that Swerve silently left you two with a smirk on his face. You were smiling at him, you were laughing with him, you were here with him. You were telling some story when he looked at you with dizzily happy eyes.

“I love you.”

“What?” You stopped talking, looking at him with confusion in your eyes.

“I love you.” He stated, smiling like a fool.

“Skids, if this is a joke, it’s not funny...”

“This isn’t. I really love you.”

You blushed. He was so... happy? Almost like a child, with this little, but genuine smile. So he was serious. Oh my god, he was serious. 

“You do...”

“Yep. I do. Is it ok?”

“Yes! Oh my god, yes, of course! But I’ve never... I don’t even know... It’s all so sudden...”

“I guess, since I can’t remember anything, we’re in the same boat here.”

“I... I guess we are...”

“Do you feel the same?” He still had this stupidly sweet smile.

“I do.”

“You can’t even imagine how happy I am to hear it.”
