Happy anniversary Usagi Chronicles!
Another fave scene for 28.04 - Usagi and Kitsune discover he has a bounty on his head and he is cornered by one of the people on the street with a big sword. Kitsune cuts off the rest of the mob in an agressive tessen stance to separate them and the ensuing fight. What I like is how the shot right after that is of Kitsune looking behind her in worry; probably wary of whether Usagi will be able to hold his own against a larger non-yokai opponent.
I didn't have time to redraw this one but I wanted to post the edit I did of it anyway ^^

"Documents" - Max Verstappen x NB!Reader
Tumblr media
Max finds himself working on Documents for someone.
For more FanFiction, find my Masterlist here
A loud Yawn escaped from Max Verstappens Throat as he pushed open the doors to the Red Bull Hospitality. He was supposed to meet his race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase, Short GP to talk about some Ideas the Team had regarding the Car’s Performance.
Apparently his frequent complaints had finally gotten on everyones nerves, motivating them to finally get working. Simply Lovely.
As his Eyes passed over the long dining room, he spotted GP carrying mugs. Three specifically. ‘Why Three?’, Max wondered but not too long, as the question answered itself immediately afterwards.
The Table GP was carrying the mugs too, also seated a third person. Their head was hung low over the table, cheeks touching a stack of big folders. He approached the Table with another yawn escaping his throat.
“Good Morning Max”, GP called out cheerfully. Way too cheerfully for such an early morning. (It was 11AM). He placed the Mug on a little paper towel to prevent marks forming on the table while trying to navigate around the third person. Max just gave them a confused look before blowing at the coffee to cool down.
As if reading his mind, GP spoke:” Ah, I totally forgot to inform you, Max. That’s Y/N, our Intern. They’ll be here for a few races.” He wanted to continue speaking but a short check of his watch alarmed him. “Sorry Max, I got a meeting! Please entertain Y/N for a bit!”. If this were an Anime, a big gust of wind would be left behind, with the speed he fled in.
Y/N flipped their head to the other side, bloodshot eyes staring in his. A quiet voice escaped:” Hi Max. As GP said, I’m Y/N.”
He gave their mug a push, shoving it close to their nose. “What got you so tired, Y/N?”
“Coffee!”, they exclaimed like a Zombie, quickly drowning some of the steaming, way too hot, liquid. After trying to cool off their burned tongue for a moment, they continued speaking.
“My internship stuff, the usual. I didn’t do my reports of the last few weeks so I spent the night doing them, Ugh…”
The driver just looked them up and down while mustering the stacked folders. “Aren’t interns  younger, normally?”
Y/N sighed. “Nope, this is not a school internship. I go to university, getting my Bacherlor’s in Sport Science and Management. Just didn’t expect to get this spot so I kept lazing around. Suddenly, Boom. E-Mail from Red Bull telling me I got accepted.”
His Team was doing Internships? That was pretty new to Max. He didn’t remember ever being told about that or seeing young, overly excited people scurry behind Team members. But apparently this one was fully endorsed since GP accompanied them. Was accompanying them. Weird.
“And now? URGH”, their groan was louder than before. “Why do all these tasks need me to write endless reports. Can’t even concentrate on my shiny Internship now…”
“If you had done your work earlier, you would have been able to concentrate on it…”
“Shush, as if anyone does their work early.”
“True.” Mental images of still to be paid pills, car maintenance and appointments fluttered through his mind. “No big difference here.”
“See?”, they asked, fully sitting up now. “Who even does that?”
Max chuckled. “Definitly not GP. He’s always late with everything. Like telling someone about the new Intern.”
Y/N led out a Gasp. “That’s why nobody expected me!”
They scurried to fling open their folder of work. “What got you so tired though? I don’t expect it to be paperwork.”
A sense of guilt overcame his mind.
Max loved Racing. A lot. The strategy, the mind games, the Developmental parts. But the marketing and whatnot? He’d be glad if they weren’t a thing but was aware they were a major part. He knew how to behave unlike some other driver when faced with Media Responsibilities. At least most of the time. He knew, Angry Max wasn’t nice-to-be-around Max.
That’s what got him into SimRacing. Spending all night in front of the screen, in a Call with his Mates. And just this evening, a large competition had held him up. Maybe 3 hours of sleep were trying their best to keep him standing. 
Y/N waited for him to answer, yet no response came. They laughed. “Don’t say it was Gaming. Really?”
Max stayed silent. 
“Media keeps saying that the simulators got your ass hooked, line and sinker. Didn’t expect that to this degree. Well, you do you.” They fumbled around their pencil case. “Because i gotta finish, really now.”
As they procured a little IKEA Pencil, Max just lost it. The sleep deprivation had lowered his limits and the visual of this teeny tiny pen had gotten him belly laughing and table with fist smacking. His tablemate just pouted at that, trying their hardest to work through the loud laughs. As he finally came to stop, little tears were streaming down his face. 
Wiping them away, an Offer came: “I could help you”
That’s how GP, tired of a large meeting with major Red Bull Staff, returned to the dining room to find his new intern and his driver seated at a round table holding little Ikea pencils. Mugs upon mugs were stacked in towers next to them, akin to the neatly stacked towers of paper and folders that they had their faces planted on. Both were sleeping deeply, lips curled into smiles. He wondered, how exactly should he report that to the Intern’s supervisor? Maybe just not at all. That sounded more tiring than lying through gritted teeth.
Instead, he tried to clean up around them and pretend nothing of the sort had happened. GP was well aware that Helmut Marko would not be approving of his talent working with those lower than him, so no need to unnecessarily awake a sleeping dragon. If he could call a guy that age a dragon at all…
While trying to carry away the stack of mugs, however, the porcelain let out a loud, high pitched noise as it collided with another. GP reacted with gentil shock, causing everything to come tumbling down.
Loud shattering noises sounded out, awakening the driver and the Intern from their slumber. Max slowly laid his eyes open, blinking once, blinking twice. He would not be hurried, who even would dare to do so, knowing his temper? Taking the time of his life, he yawned loudly. Both arms stretched high, his legs low, just akin to a cat as he finally awoke, blinking at GP. The intern meanwhile, did not awake that softly. With the loud noise, they immediately jumped into the air like a scared crow. This speedy move caused the sorted papers to fly in the air, fluttering around in a manner that was sure to mix up everything as much as physically possible. As last ditch effort to even topple this, they managed to bang their knee against the table, yelping out in pain. They slowly fell to the ground, holding their brused knee in an ocean of broken mugs, mixed papers and coffee stains.
Max didn't say anything, there clearly was no need to do so. Instead, he also got on the ground, slowly helping to collect the flung about pages to sort into neat little stacks while the intern was wiggling about like a worm. Their wide sleeved shirt looked like fluffy antenna's as they managed to now smash their head against the table, holding it in pain. Max pushed the table aside, grabbing the Intern by their arm and helping them up. Gently, he placed them on their previously occupied chair, crossing his arms.
Gianpiero Lambiase stood aside, his chin just dipping lower and lower. What had he done?
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
That evening, Max Verstappen found himself seated in his hotel room, staring at the computer he'd brought with him. The monitor was flickering in it's usual blue light, slightly off colours that had him feel more at home. Yet, he didn't feel the urge to start up a game. To play another round of Asetto Corsa with his mates or to join a competition in iRacing. This confused him. His normal routine was broken, occupied by thoughts of that Intern. Their voice as they screamed out in pain, their scrunched up face while wiggling about. He sadly didn't have the time to look after them as GP, obviously too late once again, informed him that the FIA wanted to brief the driver's on something. As one would expect, the meeting was not very fruitful. It was a stark reminder by the FIA to not engage with sponsors or media accounts talking about things the FIA didn't like. The usual, therefore. Max decided to catch up on sleep during it, which is why he was so awake now. He dreamt off warnings about politics, ongoings military conflicts and people bumping their head against tables. 
People bumping their head against tables?
‘Maybe Y/N is awake still?’, he asked himself. He was pretty sure the Intern still had a lot of work to do, if not just sorting through the files they had filled out after the stacks fell from the table. Propably also had to read them over, to check if everything was fine. Maybe also to make sure they knew what was written, if asked about it. At least, that's what Max was told Internships were like, not that he'd have Experience with them. His future was been designated before his birth, nothing to choose on his own. Well, maybe the colour of his first racing helmet?
He reclined on the armchair, drinking some of the overpriced Hotel water.
Did Y/N have to worry about the Water's Price? Most likely, he'd heard GP complain about it. They were sure to earn much less than him. But they could pick their own lane, he realised. He absolutely loved racing to his bones but sometimes he wondered. Would Life have different directions for him? He wasn't sure if that was something he should be thinking off, at all. Racing was his life now, nothing would change that. Afterall, not everyone even had the luck to get into racing since the sport is so expensive.
He sighed again, looking through the contacts on his phone. While he was sure not to have Y/Ns Number, GP definitely must have it.
Max dialed.
GP answered, sounding very tired. He could picture the tired, red eyes staring at the phone.
“Max, it's 2AM, what do you need?”
“Y/Ns phone number, please.”
GP sighed before rattling it off. As he read out the last digit, Max could hear his blanket rustle. He was already tucked in, not even saying goodbye as the call ended.
‘Man’s pretty tired’ Max thought to himself as he typed Y/N’s number into his phone.
It rang. Once. Twice. It didn't get to the third time as a wary voice rang through the speaker.
“Who's there?”, they sounded a little drowsy and careful.
“Hi, it's me, Max Verstappen. Sorry to call you this late… Or early?”
A fragmented chuckle rang through.
“Good Evening Max, I'm still working.”
As he thought.
“The document's?”
“Pretty much. I was about to head to the Convenience Store to get some food, you want to join me?”
“Sure.” He felt a bit Hungry. What even was the last time he ate? 
Shortly after, he found himself standing in front of a Convenienve Store, fiddling with his room keys. He forgot his phone in the hotel room, so that left him with no clue of when Y/N was sure to approach.
Their arrival announced itself, however. Y/N walked in the distance, the hood of their sweater pulled onto their head. They spoke, sounding very agitated. 
Max stared at the person next to them, quite startled as he heard them scream something. The person, a man about his height, stretched their arm out as if to touch Y/N and grab their bag but did not succeed. Before he could even touch them, Y/N had somehow grabbed him and flung over his shoulder. He landed face first on the ground, Y/N pressing their knee into his back.
“Don't you dare try something like that again!”, they called out. Their line of sight swept over to Max, spotting him. “Could you call the police?”
He was startled again. “Sorry forgot my phone.”
Quickly fishing around in their pocket, Y/N produced their phone and flung it to Max, Hands holding the man’s shoulder down.
It didn't take long for the police to arrive, Siren's blaring. Max pulled the cap he quickly bought it the convenience store deeper, trying to hide his appearance from curious onlookers. Meanwhile Y/N had handed the guy over to the police. The police man was surprised as he arrived, not even questioning how they could do this. “He tried to grab my Butt on the Bus!”, they exclaimed. “Then attempted to pull off my hood. I told him, the camera's on the bus were recording and that I'd Inform the police. He followed me from there”
The Policeman nodded again, taking their identity information before looking at Max shortly, clearly recognising him. “I presume we should keep this silent?”
Max nodded, watching the car drive off with one less creep running free.
Y/N stood next to him, dusting their clothes off. Max offered them a tissue to clean their hands which they gladly took. 
“That was impressive.”, he stated. “I've never seen a guy go flying like that.”
Y/N grinned. “Thanks, I do a lot of combat sports. Never thought I'd be able to use them in public though…”
“Good you trained then”. Max chuckled. “Remind me to not anger you again. I don't want to get punched.”
Y/N shook their head. “I don't unnecessarily touch people. You don't have to be scared. Not stopping you if you want to be, though!”
They silently entered the convenience store, browsing. Max had picked some instant noodles which he prepared with the provided hot water, Y/N had gotten some sandwiches and snacks. Something green? Papery looking. 
“That's Seaweed”, Y/N mouthed before hungrily biting down.
He not-do-silently slurped the instant noodles, warmth hitting his stomach. He felt content, like a cat. He wanted to stretch himself and lay on the soft carpet that you'd find before a fireplace. The perfect life.
As Y/N finished stuffing themselves with food, they also stretched out. With their foot hitting the table, they let out a losu yelp.
Max looked downy seeing them hold their foot.
“I sprained my foot yesterday in my room.” They exclaimed, face contorned as they remembered the stinging pain.
“You keep getting hurt or hurting yourself.”, he realised. 
They let out a sad sounding laugh. “Kinda, yeah..”
“You should stop that. Have you tried not hurting yourself?”
Now they were pouting. “Thanks, Doctor. That's real helpful advice here. Anything else?”
Max pondered that. “Maybe drink some water if you're feeling thirsty?”
Y/N reclined on their chair. “WOW, Live-changing. Thank you so much!”
As they got up to chuck the food wrappers in the trash, Max blurted out his thoughts: “I brought my computer with me. Interested to play a round of Asetto Corso?”
“Is that how you invite people to your Room? You should work on your pick-up lines then.”
He scowled. “No I-”
‘He’s quite awkward’, Y/N thought.
“I get what you're trying to say. Gotta finish my work though, Sorry Max. I'll see you tomorrow?”
Max was quite breathless now. “..Yeah. Till Tomorrow!”
As Y/N left, they turned around a last time. “Nice hat you got there! Suits you, Mate!”
He quickly fumbled the hat off, staring at what the hell he'd bought. It said “I'm a saucy boy!”
What the hell did that even mean?

Hello, can I get Shaxx, Cayde, Drifter, and maybe Crow with a reader who is really shy, and timid but if there tired or angry they just couldn't care less, they'll just pop people's heads off practically.
HELLOOOO! Hi, sorry I didn't react sooner but I saw your request and kinda forgot about writing it! I'm so sorry!
So here it is!! Well, I tried to be as close to the characters as possible without them being OOC. I hope you like it!
(I know they're a little short, I tried my best)
Lord Shaxx
- he'd be...surprised, honestly. Shaxx is the kind of man who encourages your might in the Crucible but he came to terms with your shy and timid nature.
- he finds it cute if we're being honest here, it just goes to show how well your characters go together.
‐ Shaxx is loud and not at all embarrassed by his words while you're a little off to the side and rather not interact with many people you don't know that well.
- So to see you in the Arena, feeling a little off with that tinge of tiredness, not wanting to actually do much except get the match over with, worried him a little.
- Well, that was until you got angry at some hunter taunting you across the map. He's been an irritating thorn in your side this whole time with his arrogant cockiness and that stupid shit eating grin you swore you saw through his helmet.
- Now, Shaxx being the man he is and encouraging your might in his matches, practically thrives off your newfound determination to bring the enemy team down.
‐ He gushes about it aswell, flexing that his S/O was crushing the enemy team and brought the win for their own.
- but he comforts you afterwards, truly. He'll be all over you with affection that same night and tell you how well you did and coo in your ear about your achievements and your victory over that damn hunter.
Cayde-6
- oh jeez...well, okay, Cayde isn't that bad but he'd also be a big encourager on his part.
- he loves the fact he can coddle you and tease you for your shyness and timid nature, finding it incredibly endearing when you blush and try to hide from him.
- he's your voice in moments it really counts in, speaking for you when something bothers you or whatnot.
- but when he (surprisingly enough) managed to get out of the tower and "aid" you on patrol on Mars, he really didn't expect you to start popping Cabal heads with little to no care!
- all because they scratched your armour too! You've been feeling tired already, not wanting to go on patrol in the first place but being tasked by Commander Zavala himself to simply take a look around the perimeter.
- now your new armour has been scratched, you were already tired and these Cabal weren't letting up either!
- Cayde just simply stood off to the side and gawked at you like you were a completely different person!
- his sweet and cute S/O, as shy and timid as they are most of the time, is casually killing Cabal with headshots left and right like they were nothing!
- (he was a little turned on, let's be fair)
- to say everybody in the Tower knew of your little outburst would be an understatement, that loveable Exo of yours could not keep his damn mouth shut.
Drifter
- he might be the damn reason you're so nagged in the first place, honestly.
- so we all know Drifter and how he is, always that bravado he puts on for a rogue lightbearer. He's got an image to uphold.
- so this man would also be an absolute tease, cracking jokes and cooing right in your ear on a private comms channel just to see you get flustered and all.
- but he knows when to stop aswell, don't get me wrong.
- that instance would be when you both were on a mission on Europa. He had perched himself onto a vantage point where he could observe and cover your back if needed.
- you two were just casually chatting around, talking about the most mundane things while you were walking the perimeter.
‐ until...you suddenly got ambushed. You were already tired and these Fallen constantly crawling out of their hiding spots and caves and whatnot just irritated you further. It was supposed to be a simple Intel mission.
- so Drifter, being the good boyfriend he is, covered your back and shot Eliksni after Eliksni while making sure you weren't too overwhelmed.
- yet he did feel baffled when you just popped their head like nothing, like they were flies.
- for him it felt like you and that person sporting your armour were two different people.
- don't get him wrong, he liked you this way. Unbothered and uncaring but it was a stark contrast to your usually sweet personality.
- he did tease you after everything had calmed down and you two managed to meet up but he did make sure to at least try and get you to calm down.
Crow
- oh my god– are you trying to give this man a heart attack?
- not only was he worried because you were already feeling tired, which made you so easily agitated, but you also had to go on a patrol WITHOUT him nearby.
- he knows of your act of....not being bothered with anything at all but he was still worried, he knows you can take care of yourself
- Crow loves your shy behaviour, it complimented his own well. Your timidness making his heart soften.
- he was...shocked? To say the least the first time he caught you in that state of "You breathe at all? Bullet to the head." and it did worry him a little.
- (even a little turned on, dare I say? He's a sucker okay for badass partners imo)
- he tries his best to calm you down if you reach that state of anger or try and convince Zavala to send someone else when you're feeling tired but got handed another mission.
- Crow just wants to care for you</3
(Hope you enjoyed reading it and send in requests if you want something specific! Have a great day/night!)
(Love, creator hihi)

TD anon here, I do feel you on the "torture" scene with Taiga, I didn't want my last ask getting any longer lmao.
While the scene definitely made me squeal, for me personally it was undercut by the emotionally charged scene that happened immediately after with Romeo lmao. It's exactly how I felt with Frostheim too, being excited over the dance with Jin, and then immediately after we get the cigarette kiss scene with Jin and Tohma LOL. But it only makes sense, MC has only just showed up at the school, not enough time to bond, and honestly with these kinds of joseimuke games I don't have much expectations of interactions between the cast and MC so in TD she's already much more involved with the whole comic thing anyways.
Eating the Like Dove raw... was really a raw scene lol. He seems to be attracted to blood for some reason? Since he paused when MC's cut started bleeding, I think he was about to lick the blood tbh.
And yeah I do wonder if his shoddy memory has anything to do with his deal's cost. Another vibe theory time, I feel like his fear of the Like Dove might've been... ingrained in him somehow? Maybe he had a run-in before but can't remember it. The reason why I think this is because when MC met him alone, when she reminded him that she was the Honor student, his response was "Oh no wonder I didn't kill you on the spot", he literally forgot about her but his body/instinct made him aware she's someone he's not supposed to kill.... if that makes sense?
He feels like an even bigger enigma than Towa, I'm curious to know what's going on in his head in the moments he goes eerily quiet. Not to mention he's the poster boy of the game, has to be a reason. Luca feels more in line to be the poster boy but it's Taiga...
I enjoyed Haru's drunk spiel about how helpful MC is lol. Also my eyes going wide when Rui said he wants to know what she's made of too... what does that mean....... I need more Rui content, I love his blatant flirtations lol. I got a campus event with Rui, Haru and Romeo in the bar before I even read the chapter, their unexpected friendship is very cute ngl.
(sorry in case this is sent repeatedly, smth wrong with my net atm)
Generally speaking I have found tumblr doesn't post or send things twice but it sure as hell reblogs them with the same tags 42 times making me look like some sort of freak
for me personally it was undercut by the emotionally charged scene that happened immediately after
Yeah I get this. The cigarette kiss with Tohma and Jin took me off guard, but that was mostly because I thought this was an otome game? Come to think of it I don't think we've had confirmation of the whole joseimuke v otome game thing beyond the existence of the like dove and individual character affinity... Well and that when this was announced it was supposed to be an otome game. I know that the otome games subreddit has been having some, shall we say spirited? Discussions lately about how players feel about ros getting into relationships with each other. The general opinion was that a lot of times the ro x ro relationships feel more fleshed out that the ro x mc ones, and I agree. I actually stopped writing something I wanted to be an otome game because the story started shaping up to be more about the mc's mentor than them, and I personally do not think that is very fun. People do like laid back mcs, they do not like mcs who have no place in the narrative, and some writers aren't good at balancing that. TDB mc is doing pretty well when it comes to interactions with the main cast compared to something like Twisted Wonderland if what you want is explicit romance, so far it feels like Season 1 of og Obey Me! from what I remember of that game, so we'll see.
I didn't get the same level of intimacy from Romeo and Taiga as I did Jin and Tohma? But I think that's because in both cases I thought the like dove had appeared before Romeo got there and was talking to Taiga and the second scene made me think Taiga was angry at him for interrupting his "fun." Whatever that "fun" was going to wind up being because yeeeeeah he seems like he has a blood kink of some sort. I think he was going to suck on it and bite her a bit, but licking seems like a logical first step and less influenced by what's wrong with me. Like I said over here the scene with the Like Dove fascinates me... it says more about Taiga than any other character in the game that we get to see the dove twice and that when given the chance he shoots and eats it... if that isn't a metaphor for denial and emotional repression then I am not sure what is.
he literally forgot about her but his body/instinct made him aware she's someone he's not supposed to kill…. if that makes sense?
YES. I wanted to talk about this but it sort of got into conspiracy theory territory and my answer was getting long. I don't know if anyone remembers, but waaaay back in Book 1 when mc tries to escape the school she isn't able to get anyone's attention. It's like they don't see her, is that because of her curse or is it because of preventative measures put in place by the school? I want to lean towards the latter because it makes more sense BUT I also want to be delusional and say that it's part of mc's curse. There's something about Taiga's instinctual fear of the Like Dove and his comments to the mc that make me think his body knows her but his paranoia and memory issues keep him from knowing it.
This is just me writing fan fic... but Taiga is technically the first ghoul you meet. He is the poster boy of the game, he is the first person to bring mc into the main loop and tell her there's a spy. I want so badly for him to have known her at some point but to have been robbed of his memories... Romeo seems to think he is trying to forget stuff on purpose "gone off the deep end" and "escape reality" are both things he says to describe him though granted that last one was due to a misunderstanding about what Taiga was trying to do with the anomaly. Something real bad happened last year, something I feel like Taiga doesn't want to acknowledge unless he can get revenge on whoever caused it. I mentioned in another post, but I sort of want MC to have something to do with Clementia and that's why she's there at the dorm beyond it just being empty due to the clash. (I do get why Luca isn't the poster boy; he's not a dorm captain and those seem to be what the game wants to push. well them and towa lol)
Haru and Rui
Rui is a bar tender who is described as being "popular with the female students" probably because of how flirty he is ha. I love his dynamic with Haru and Romeo, just a barman and his two favorite customers shooting the shit and trying to relax. Rui is cursed to kill whoever he touches, so I think he wants to talk with MC more because he can relate to her in a very unique way. And he got gate kept from doing so by Haku in book one so he's extra curious now. I have his SR so I'll put him on my homescreen for a bit and see what voice lines I can shake out of him. For the little bit I did have him there he called him and mc "curse twins" which I thought was very cute. In a dark sort of way. The entire section at the Obscuary bar endeared me to all three of those idiots.
But especially Haru. He called Peekaboo his child this chapter too ;-; he's such a good dad. I wonder if he is going to show up next books at all? Or if it's going to be like the previous books and we'll instead see Taiga and maaaaybe Towa? Since he's friends with Zenji. Nothing to do but wait for May 0-0

Lovely Neighbors
Tumblr media
Eddie Brock x reader
Words: 727
Author’s note: Did I write this slightly based off of personal experience? Yes. Gotta love neighbors. Also I set it up like there may be a part two because I feel like there should be but idk if I actually want to do that.
Warning: one part alluding to sex but like barely
Tumblr media
“Oh god, why? Why?” You’d whisper shout while clenching your hands tight and shaking your head.
When you decided to make the transition from a big house with your family to a small apartment living all on your own, what you forgot to remember was the lack of privacy, and it seemed like your dear neighbors forgot as well.
The thumping, the moaning, you could barely even think with all the sounds that were coming out of that apartment. You’ve only been in the place for two months and they’ve done this a number of times. And it’s not like they were right next to you, they were your diagonal neighbors so that went to show either one; how loud they were, or two; just how thin the walls actually were.
At first you were going to ignore the problem altogether but it was nearly impossible to do.
Now you were not a confrontational person, so while you stood with your hand wrapped around your own front doorknob you practiced what you were going to say.
“All I’m gonna do is go over there,” you mumbled, “and say, ‘hey I love that you guys love each other, that’s super important in a relationship but other people live here, please keep it quiet…please,’ yeah that’s it, that’s perfect.”
You shook your head once more and inhaled for confidence. With that small boost you turned the knob and pulled the door open. Just as you did, the front door of the the apartment next to you flung open and out came your next door neighbor.
You watch, a little surprised because you’ve genuinely never seen the man before. He was always out and about, and honestly you weren’t sure if there was one person living there or two because when he was home, he was always talking with someone. It was funny, after hearing his voice multiple times and now seeing him, he looked exactly how you imagine. Like a volunteer firefighter. Like a really tired, annoyed, angry volunteer firefighter.
That being said you watched from your door post as he knocked on the door, hard. You could hear him mumbling angrily. He didn’t wait long before knocking again and when it was obvious that no one was going to answer the door he did something that no one would believe you if you told them.
You heard him say , “that’s it.” And his arm started becoming encased in black goo or something like that and then he punched the door.
Wide open.
The door practically flew open.
Then a deeper voice spoke, one that you recognized as the other person he talks to, “If you two don’t shut up I’ll rip both your heads off.”
That got them to stop.
The goo practically disappeared back inside of him and at this point you don’t know whether to be confused or horrified by what you just witnessed. You guess it was sort of obvious on your face because when the man went to turn back around he spotted you clearly for the first time since the whole ordeal started.
You stood, with your body frozen against the door post, eyes wide in a panic. His own eyes fell to the floor for a moment, almost like an ashamed child before he went back in his apartment and slammed the door.
After that there was nothing really for you to do expect retreat back into your own apartment.
You go to bed that night feeling awful. But honestly thankful to that mystery neighbor that saved you knowing it to be true that you were more likely than not going to chicken out at the last moment.
You replayed that embarrassed look he gave when he caught you staring at him. Even though you couldn’t see your own face, you could just picture the horrified expression you made. You couldn’t help it, it was just a natural instinct, you meant nothing by it. At this point it’s well into the night and you’re not sure if what you’re worried about is a serious concern or if you’re just overthinking things as you typically did. But either way, as you drift off to sleep you decide not to address what just happened. I mean you’ve never seen him before this. It’s not like you were going to really see him again. Right?

Zen
Hatsuharu Sohma X Fem!Reader
Word Count: 1069
A/N: First off the song is Zen by Jacob Lee and second I left this kind of open ended because I love him and Rin together but I also love him in general so read this how you like 😘
Tumblr media
I hope that sacrifice is worth it Leave my heart inside another person Always knew that I’d find my purpose, living as a servant Taking on the roles they can’t let go
You’d give anything to Haru if he asked for it, you knew that he gave everything for everyone else, that was why you spent every morning you made an extra lunch and brought it with you everyday and why you would spend every lunch looking for him to hand it over with a big smile however today he decided to ask about it.
“Why do you always bring me lunch?” He asked one day as you swapped something with Momiji. “Because you never bring lunch for yourself, you're too busy worrying about everyone else.” You answered honestly. “Do you want me to stop?” “No that’s not what I was saying but surely this causes you trouble.” He frowned. “Not really but even if it did, the sacrifice would be worth it.” You answered with a smile as Momiji watched you both, he didn’t say anything. “Thank you.” He finally said as you graved with the rare sight of a real smile from Haru and it was from then that you promised that you would look after him while he looks after everyone else.
If you knock once or twice I'll invite you to share my design I'll let you visit my thoughts If you stay in your spot And you never try crossing that line If I lend you my hand Would you lend me some time with your mind? I'll write down all that you want 'Cause I learn quite a lot When I live through these lives that aren't mine…
It was a couple of weeks later when you were walking past Haru class that you heard a crash. You glanced in to see that Haru was the one that caused it, he had explained before what happened when he got angry, you reached your hand out towards him “Haru!” You called, he glanced over his shoulder, his eyes softening once he saw you. “What?” He asked. “You wanna punch something? I got something you can punch.” You said wiggling your fingers, he grit his teeth for a moment before walking over to you and taking your hand you lead him to the exit of the school and to the boxing ring that your father owned.
Momiji led Yuki, Tohru and Kyo to the classroom that he had left Haru in, they all frowned at the lack commotion, when they all walked in there was no damage and no Haru “we don’t have time for this you stupid rabbit are you lost again!?” Kyo asked, smacking him in the head. “No I’m not lost, this is where he was!” Momiji answered, hand coming up to his head as he flinched away from another hit. “Excuse me, have you seen Haru?” Yuki turned to one of the girls that had been chatting with her friend. “Oh he was here a while ago, he looked really angry about something and (Y/N) came in said there was somewhere that they could go where he could punch something and he left with her.” The girl explained. “(Y/N)? Who’s that?” Kyo asked. “Oh… Um we meant to tell you about her… Well on our first day here, Haru forgot his lunch, so she gave him hers that day, claimed that she already ate, turned out she didn’t really have many friends so she ended up with us a lot of the time.” Momiji explained. “There’s something else.” Yuki said. “Well, she’s like our Tohru, she grabbed me one day when I was about to fall and she found out, we never told anyone Haru didn’t want Akito to know.” Momiji explained. “So do you know where they are?” Kyo asked. “I think so, she mentioned somewhere her dad runs.” Momiji answered.
You stood behind the punching bag and smiled as you leaned your weight against it “punch it like you mean it.” You encouraged him. “Are you sure you can handle it sweetheart?” He asked with a smirk. “Pretty sure I can Dark.” You winked before tapping the bag again “hit it.” Haru drew his hand back and hit the bag as hard as he could. “You got power, don't know how to put it into your fist though.” “What’d you say?” He asked leaning forward so his face was inches from yours, a wide smirk on his lips, you still had a teasing one on yours. “I said that you don’t punch right.” You informed him coming around the punching bag showing him how to curl finger and twist his fists as he landed the punch. Haru knew how to fight, you both knew that, you were just teasing him but the way that it seemed to distract him led you to teaching him things you were sure he already knew. “Alright… Why would you be out here with me? Why are you missing class to help me?” Haru asked between punches as you held the bag for him. “My grandmother always joked that the females or my family were givers, they found someone who needed them and gave them everything that they could, my grandmother found my grandfather a veteran who needed a home, my mother found my father a delinquent who needed someone to believe in him and me… I found the ox spirit who just needed someone to listen.” You explained, you hadn’t even noticed that he stopped punching. “I know a look of heartbreak when I see one, which is why I’m not going to ask you to return the feelings, I’ll be here friend or more, I promise.” Haru wished that he could hug you but instead he pressed his forehead to yours. “T-thank you.” He said softly, his hand pressing to the back of your head to keep you in place as tears streamed down his face.
Tohru was straight crying as she watched the both of you, Yuki smiled softly and Kyo rolled his eyes. Momiji watched you both without a single word, just happy that both his friends were okay “you ready to go back?” You asked, they were all shocked out of their states as Kyo grabbed Tohru and they all ran out of the boxing ring and back to school before either one of you saw them.

Some moments in season 3 of Young Royals that stand out for me ep.4
Now, when I'm sharing with you my reactions, I can see that as the season went on, I calmed, so there wasn;t as much screaming and gasping after three first episodes. But also, I made 2h of a break before watching another 2 episodes. Also, the atmosphere in a season visibly changed. So here I'm talking about ep 1 and ep 2 and here ep 3. And here is episode 4 moments that made me burst in laugh, gasped, made me forgot how to breathe or wanted to puke.
Wille quoting Kristina
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I had so mixed feelings about it. I felt sorry for him, but I was also angry but also sad. It felt like arguing with my parents, and hearing them say some idioms or sayings, bc they are left out of logical arguments.
2. Jan-Olof and his advice
Tumblr media
I waited. I knew he will say something that will make my (and SImon's) blood boil.
Tumblr media
And he did.
3. Strike in Hillerska
Tumblr media
As a burnt out climate activist who were arrested by police for some non-violent action, I find it hilarious to see students of Hillerska doing sitting. The whole sequence was very funny too me and my friends with pretty similar background. As we have this experience in making strikes, we have to say that it wasn't very best way of preparing strike (the was not any preparing actually). This is not how you do it haha
4. Wille joining the strike bc he won't face any consequences
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Simon summed up Wilhelm here so well... And I love how Simon makes Wille hear what he's saying.
5. Getting more in Eriksson's family story
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This felt like very important information, and I like we keep digging in their family dynamics. Like - he wanted to have contact with Micke! I think it hits different bc we get to know something new about characters even though the series is ending and it's so surprising and doing things to me. Young Royals creators, why are you so genious?
6. Simon once again summing up
Tumblr media
I love this man.
7. This conversation
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This conversation happening in their window spot and as i was reminding my friend that they kissed there for the first time, the music from that moment started to play.
They needed to remind me I have to breath.
But the events made me somehow hungry too. But for more talk, which didn't happened, bc Simon cut it. I mean - instead of sayin "Me too" after Wille's "I don't want to hurt you" - he could talk more about how deleting his accounts made him feel. That day was clearly difficult for him from the moment it happened...
8. ...yet goofy Simon made me forgot for a minute about it
Tumblr media Tumblr media
happens
and I like this site of Simon from the season 1.
9. Those rich kids are crazy
Tumblr media
But we laughed loud, while watching it.
Tumblr media
Yeah, do exactly bc of what the school has problems o.O
10. Those sleepy puffy faces
Tumblr media
so smoll and tiny <3
11. Rosh & Ayub
Tumblr media
I will miss their trio
12. When August said what I left was comming since he spoke with Nils 2 episodes earlier.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I felt full.
I love this show.
I'm not ready for today. There won't be a post about ep5 bc it's still too much for me. I won't be rewatching it today before final episode.
I'm so grateful for this show. And the people that were involved in making it.
Sending love to them today.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Promise
Based of off the Divergent series.
Warnings:RUSHED, I REALLY DIDN'T THINK I WAS JUST TYPING AWAY, IF YOU'RE CONFUSED HIT ME UP I WILL TRY MY HARDEST TO ELABORATE, GRAMMAR ERRORS, ECT
Idk if y'all saw but I posted a while ago that I have this "story" in mind and I was supposed to release some stuff about it but I forgot. But here's something...
Kunigami's Story: Day of Election
You knew what day it was, you marked it on your calendar. Oh how you dread the date wishing it was all a dream, but it's not, it's real, so very real.
You looked up at the calendar with tears forming.
You haven't talk to him either,you were so angry at him for his decision.He stopped trying to talk to you,he understands that your mad at him .
The last time he tried to talk to you,You told him to go away and that you hate him for leaving you.
Your words stung him,But he's smart enough to know that you didn't mean that. You were just frustrated,So he gave you space for about a week,till the day came.
He knocks on your room door, and wait for a response.
But you ignored him,All he could hear was small sniffs and sobs. He cringes at the noise,Your not one to cry you were always upbeat and sassy.
He waits for about 3 more minutes, before an exusted sigh leaves his lips."I'm sorry (y/n)".
You missed his voice,you haven't heard it for weeks. You missed how deep it was and how it would bring you to ease when you're in distress.
You tried to ignore the feeling of opening the door and leaping into his arms.Pulling him into your embrace. To hear his soft chuckle when you hug him a bit to tightly not wanting to let go.
But your anger was preventing you from doing so. You were so mad at him.
A small sigh leaves his lips,Before he walks away from your door.
You should get going too,You have to choose your career path.
But you didn't want to run into Kunigami on the way. So you waited for what seems like 10 minutes before heading out the door.
Looking left and right to me sure that the cost is clear.
You make your way through out the halls of the large facility till you made it to your destination,The auditorium.
You entered.
You look around for a a seat since nearly all of them were filled. You noticed a seat open and decided to take it while you still can,even though it's near the front.
When you took your seat,there was still one available next to you.
And in coincidence you noticed orange spike hair sticking out like a sour thumb. You tried to look away but your eyes and his met instenly.
He glance to the spot next to you.And began to make his way over.
Now you could take this as an opportunity to sit down with your boyfriend and talk about his decision,and everything would be back to normal.
But you being you,you ignored your inner thoughts and places your hand on the seat.
He got the message and cuts his joinery to you short. A small sigh leaves his lips as his face visible saddens.
Your heart clenched,You felt so bad,you hate that look. It makes him look like a sad lost puppy.
You turn your head away from him.
Kunigami on the other hand got distracted when a males voice calls his name.
"Kunigami,over here!".
It was Isagi and the other boys form his block.They were sitting on the other side of room from were you were.
He gives you one last look,Which you completely ignored and began to make his way to the seat his friends had saved him.
He takes his seat,His friends knew the situation going on with you and him,some told him to just give you all the time that you need. Others say to just wait till she comes and apologizes,since he did nothing wrong.
The moment finally began. Name after name were called and teens went up to choose whether they are a warrior,healer,inventor or a modern civilian.
Many choose to be a warrior,who wouldn't you get treated like royalty. Well that also depends on what ranking you on.[Warlords]
Our intelligent folks choose to work in the lab and invent. [ Intel ]
The ones with a loving heart choose be doctors/ nurses in the facility.
There are two types of caretakers that you must know: The ones that choose to be a nurse but also leave with the warriors when going on missions.[Battle Angeles]
Or you choose to stay in the facility and work when the teams who don't have a nurse with them.[Angels]
And our folks who just wanna live the simple life and be a civilian.
'Kunigami Rensuke'.
Your breath got caught in your throat,As you watch him step up onto the podium.
He extended his hand to the announcer,who then pricked his finger.
"What is your choice young man?".
He looks over the crowd and his eyed met yours,
Once again life is given you another opportunity. You could either give him a small smile,a smile saying that even though you don't like the idea of him be a Warlord your gonna support him.
Or you could give just ignor his look and make the situation worse.
Second option is what your going with. You looked away. He sighs and turn his focus back to the 4 decisions.
He already knew what he wanted to do.Its been his dream to be a Warlord. He knows that you are just upset but you'll blow over soon .
His finger smears the blood form the prick onto the paper reading:Warlord.
You could only feel the unsettling feeling increasing.
"(Y/n) (l/n)" .
You stood up from your chair and made your way to the podium.
You extended your finger to the announcer ,who pricks it.
"What is your choose young woman?".
You look at your options and your finger gently smears over the paper reading:Angel
After everyone was called the meeting was over. Everyone was divided into the decisions they made.
''Welcome to department Angel,Here is where you will treat our civilians and Warlords alike. Remember this is a very important decision you made. People's lives are in your hands,You may be young but not dumb. Age doesn’t judge your knowledge. Now doctors and nurses soon to be you have a week to prepare for your entrance exam. Now remember if you fail this exam you will not take cours Angel till next year. But you must also pass that exam.
You can only take the exam 3 time till you won't be able join Angel. I wish you best of luck".
'One week is all we have,Better study hard,its a 5 hour quiz with 300 questions'.
You went to your room and decided to start studying tomorrow. Thanks to the whole meeting thing and the situation with Kunigami,you were so tired .
You wanted to go see him,ask him about his decision and meeting.
But no, a side in you kept you from doing that.
You don't feel like thinking about it right now. You pushed your thoughts away and began to drift into a sweet slumber.
One week later
In the morning you woke up early enough to get some studying in. You first made your way to the kitchen were mostly everyone ate together. But you couldnt, so after greeting your friends you made your way back to your room. But on your way back you heard fast footsteps approaching from behind. You were aware of who they belong to and you didn't hesitate to slam the door in his face.
It's been a week and you have to take your entrance exam, and today's also the day Kunigami is drafted, Warlords take their exams three days after they make their decision, If they past, they began their first mission.
You'd think since your boyfriend got past a the toughest exams there is you'd celebrate with him. Give him kisses and rewards, Yes the ones who passed got their celebration. But the fact that you weren't there made him feel so empty.
But today is the day he goes on his first real mission, He wants to say goodbye to you before he leaves.
"Can I please talk to you, we have spoken in a nearly a month,And I'll be gone for a while,"
"..........."
"Our first mission is gonna be a S-rank, apparently it's bad out there so the new recruits are being exposed to the dangers of our world right of the bat".
'An S-rank mission,No,No,No that's the second most dangerous missions there is after S'. Why are they sending him?!.
You feel a lump getting caught in your throat,Horrible sanarios of Kunigami's uniform/dog tag being brought to you staind with blood.
How the unit captain will solute to you and tell you that your lover was strong and noble and that he will be remembered for his courageous actions of war.
You were interrupted of your thoughts when the voice of your lover spoke.
"Your really not gonna say anything".
''............."
"Well if your not,It's time for me to leave,They didn't give us much time to so bye to our family and friends'.'
".........'.'
"*sigh* I love you (y/n),I hope you know that".
He takes a minute before leaving. Making his way down the hall.
He's not as excited as he thought he would be,He wanted to share this experience with you of all people. But he can't be happy knowing that your mad at him.
"I knows how stubborn you could be, but I didn't think you would take it this far".
He says out loud to himself as he walks farther away from your room.
Go , Go to him!, you idiot before it's to late!. Give him a squeeze before he leaves it could be the last time you see him again!'.
Your inner voice shouted at you.
'But I'm mad at him!'. You know that your in the wrong but your stubborness won't let you admit it.
But another side of you couldn't help it anymore, you haven't spoken to him in nearly a month and now he's on his way to a suicide mission!.
The girl was quick to jump from her bed and towards the door, rushing down the hall hoping that you can make it in time.
He hears them, the sound of small feet quickly making their way to his direction, before he was attack with a hug, a tight bone crushing hug.
He inhaled the familiar smell of perfume before a small smile spread on his cheek .
But it was quick to disappear when he hears small sniffs.
"P-please come back to me, Kunigami *sniff* I'm serious".
He turns around and pulls you close to him with one hand as he runs his fingers in your hair with the other.
He lets out a chuckle before saying:
"Of course I'll come back,I promise".
"You better".
Ok that's my first part of a "chapter". I don't really want to call it chapter since it's not really a story????? It's more like a bunch of random ideas about the bllk fandom but in a Divergent series plot(I would highly recommend you watch it or read it the series is wonderful)but all the "chapters" that will be released in the future are all connected.
And this is just Kunigami's. Day of election I'll do other characters as well.
Still debating whether or not I should let you guys selective characters tho.
Pls pls pls feedback is important and so is reblogs!!!!! .

Out of No Man's Land, into Cry for Blood, plus a couple more comics for Renee before Officer Down next batch.
Endgame
I'm free from having to decide on context, woo!
Renee gets a promotion for how well she handled Two-Face.
The Honored Dead (Tec #742)
Renee gets partnered with Crispus Allen, who I hate infinitely less than Bullock. As far as cops go he's a pretty likeable character.
Batman/Huntress: Cry for Blood #1
YEAAAAAAH
Them! I love Helena so much, I love her and Batman's hostility, I love that Vic decides the best way to get in touch with her is to nearly get hit by her car. Iconic.
The art style's very different from the Question run, but it feels like it resonates with it somehow, and it might because they have the same colourist? I can't usually pin it down but there's a certain something about the smoke and mist. Maybe I'm drawing arbitrary connections to explain the vibes but it's the best I've got.
#2
She's SO pretty in this. Women!
I like it when Bruce is a huge bitch.
Drowning motif spotted.
Truly catastrophic "I can fix her" levels here.
#3
Extremely cute that Richard calls Vic "butterfly."
Honestly Helena is handling this extremely well, all things considered. Sure she's pissed but she's been kidnapped, that's entirely reasonable.
Wait hold on, Jackie's death gets retconned here! Somehow I missed that before, I don't know if that's on purpose or if Rucka just forgot/didn't know she died. Either way I'll take it.
#4
This is such a good telling of her backstory, it hits.
Road trip as bonding moment my beloved.
#5
Bruce hates Vic's ass so much for no reason other than because he's annoying. Fair enough.
Sorry girl you might not be part of the family but that will not stop Tim from having little brother energy.
Father-in-law behavior on Bruce's part tbh.
Renee pulls this exact same move in Lois Lane which is cute.
#6
Helena...
Can't get over Vic being described as a GQ candidate.
"When is it enough?" takes me out.
Vic taking off his mask to look her in the eye???
This is a Character Thesis Moment for both of them imo. Vic has fundamentally overlooked Helena's motives in his attempt to find solidarity - Helena knows exactly what the Huntress is here to achieve, despite her reservations and her willingness to seek balance. They're cute in JLU, but this was never going to work for them here.
Happy Birthday Two You (Tec #747)
This issue is a lot of what keeps me sold on Renee genuinely caring about Harvey's well-being, despite everything he's done and will continue to do. The tulips are pushing up against her boundaries, but Harvey didn't try to contact her directly or make it known they were from him. It's an attempt at doing an actual nice thing at a time when she's starting to slip, and clearly that matters to her enough that she's willing to take it in good faith and make an effort in kind, despite her annoyance at Bruce over it.
I just really love this issue. It's so pretty, and so grounded, and it works so well as a snapshot of Renee's life before everything gets worse for her.
Scavenger Hunt (Catwoman #83)
Mostly a Gordon-focused issue, but Renee follows him and Batman on their scavenger hunt. Not that important for her characterization but hey she's involved.
She gets more outwardly upset over Gordon being taunted by a reminder of Two-Face's trial than by being reminded of her own involvement. It's because of Gordon-centric writing, and partly that she's trying not to reveal how she's affected, but it's also reinforcing my interpretation that No Man's Land was so fucked up and traumatizing in general that she's not as angry about being kidnapped as she "should" be.
That isn't to undermine how bad being held prisoner was, it's just that everything was bad. She went directly back to work after NML despite killing people/indirectly getting people killed/seeing her friends and coworkers die/seeing so many people die/watching other cops give up even remotely pretending policing isn't about power/the general absurd trauma conga line of it all, there is some POWERFUL repression going on.
The Dark Knight Project (Batman #584)
Not a lot of Renee I just have a pet peeve: I absolutely do not buy that Batman is an urban legend by this point in his career.
I'm willing to suspend my disbelief on a lot of things but this is so silly to me because it's unnecessary - Bruce can want to avoid the spotlight as much as possible so that he's still shrouded in myth without having to pretend that people don't know he exists! Like, it can still be a matter of debate if he's one person or many, human or monstrous, what his superpowers are...
Even if I accept that Bruce is just that good at hiding, Jean-Paul got into a lot of very public shit both as Azbat and on his own and Helena is overt enough that she can get a ridiculous-but-roughly-accurate caricature in the paper. Everyone knows Gotham has vigilantes.
I do kind of vibe with the idea that Harvey's been pinned with the creation of the Bat-myth.
Superman and Batman: World's Funnest
Irrelevant, but it manages to get a tiny Vic in both a Crisis group shot and an Earth-4 panel, which is twice as much as most of the cameos I haven't been mentioning.
Measure for Measure (Batman #585)
A minor Renee appearance, but she's comfortable enough with Batman by now to call him out on his shit.

What are your favorite quotes from the Táin or other UC texts? Asking for non-tattoo related purposes I swear.
big question! these are just going to be off the top of my head tbh (well, i will look up the exact wordings, but i am going by what quotes come to mind without me scouring the text)
one of my favourites from TBC is from the stowe manuscript specifically, so it's not in the early versions of the text (you can tell from the gross 15th century spellings), but it's from a poem that ferdia speaks before he fights cú chulainn:
"truagh a dhé teacht do mhnaoi eadrom agus é leth mo chroidhe in Cú cen col is leth croidhe na Con mé"
which loosely translates as "alas, o God, that a woman should come between me and him | the faultless Hound is half my heart, and I am half of his" (trans.... honestly i forgot, sorry)
#gay
tbh, there are a lot of good quotes in comrac fir diad, especially in cú chulainn's lament for fer diad -- e.g. i love the repeated "all play, all sport" motif ("Cluchi cách, gaíne cách") bc of all the symbolism there of lost youth and innocence in the moment of ferdia's death
i also really like the bit in oidheadh con culainn where cú chulainn is begging láeg to leave the battle and stay safe so he can take the news to emer and he says
‘Beirsi buaidh 7 bennachtain,’ ar Cú Chulainn, ‘óir ní fuair tigerna riam 7 ní fuighbe tigerna tarm ési gilla bus ferr ná tusa. 7 do-berimsi mo briathar co cluinfiter fo Erinn uile mar dígheóladsa aniu tú. 7 do-berim briathar óntís do chenglamar aráen re chéile in cétlá, nach tarrla ar n-imscarad ná ar n-imrisin re chéile do lá nó d-oidchi riam co háes na huairi so.'
“Take victory and blessing,” said Cú Chulainn, “because no lord ever found nor will any lord after me find a gilla who is better than you. And I give you my word that it will be heard throughout all of Ireland how I will avenge you today, and I give my word that since the first day we bound ourselves together, we never before separated or quarrelled, day or night, until this very moment." (trans. longman)
emph mine but oh my god. they're so married. that one's probably a bit long for a tattoo though lmao
also there are a lot of very excellently gay cu chulainn/laeg quotes in toruigheacht gruaidhe griansholus but we'll be here all night if i start pulling those out. the bit where laeg asks to be buried in his grave though... it's verse again, verse is good, it's
lodhlaicfior misi ionnat' fheart, Bu h-ionann leacht dhuit-si is dúinn I shall be buried in thy grave One tombstone shall we have (trans. o'rahilly)
there's a definite theme here of me just liking the gay declarations of affection which. yeah. i do. i only tend to remember things i get emotional about so even if i like other lines in the moment that i'm reading them, these are the ones that stick with me!
but i do also like really like the line in TBC where cu chulainn calls himself a "little creature":
"Acht dia festa-su, is andíaraid in míl bec fégai-siu .i. missi." "But if only you knew it, the little creature you are looking at, namely, myself, is wrathful." (trans. o'rahilly)
purely for the vibes of calling himself a míl bec, yunno. i feel like "is andíaraid in míl bec fégai-siu" would make quite a badass tattoo -- that fragment alone might be translated as "the little creature you are looking at is fierce". though this probably only works if you're short. if you're tall i'm not sure you can use that one hahaha (andíaraid is 'wrathful, fierce, angry; baleful, baneful' so basically if you're small and pissed off, that's a good one)
that's all that's coming to mind rn, not sure if those are of any use but if i think of anything else i'll add it on later (realistically that'll be next time i'm combing the text for a random detail and spot a line i enjoy haha)

DNDADS S2E30 Thoughts (spoilers warning)
The way that the intro was about Hermie and yet they still forgot about him...it is what it is for us Hermie-enjoyers I suppose. But also, I'm glad that Anthony is still adding some weight to the fact that they're forgetting him. He deserves to get a little pissed at the fact that they never remember his existence (though as a DM Anthony could also give Hermie some agency and have him interact with scenes without having to be acknowledged by the party, especially since he has just kinda become part of the group).
Somewhat of a Gothcleats slay with Link breaking the pick out of love, hoping that Scary could rejoin them and be on their side. The bathroom scene was also bonkers, I think I just have a soft spot for whenever Matt and Beth do scenes together because they can get so unhinged so quickly, especially playing as teens.
Beth is truly making Scary both terrible and sympathetic in such a teen girl way. Scary is attention-seeking and mean and I think she even knows she's wrong (at least a little bit) but it's all just because she wants to be acknowledged as her own person. Her scene with Willy was so chilling because it's the first real time we've seen him treat her like he treated Ron. I know most people recognized that Willy was manipulating her, but him yelling at her and telling her that he thought she was smarter and overall pulling the disappointed dad act just for Scary to turn around and double down her devotion and try to prove that she can be smarter and better...whew that was rough. I have even more thoughts about why Scary will look up to Willy but not Terry Jr. but I will save that for its own post.
I think Link is hilarious and blunt when it comes to his interactions with everyone but DAMN I wish someone would lay off of Normal for once. Like, Nicky just told him that not only is he not the "chosen one" but his family didn't even really want him and Link still comes in for the kill telling him to calm down about his family not wanting him...I'm sorry, what??? Normal has every right to be super fucking depressed and angry right now and yet he never embraces it. Every act he takes is to protect his friends and family (AND THE WORLD) and I would argue that despite his little ego break in Pride he still is the most selfless of the kids because he acts without caring how others treat him 90% of the time as long as they let him stay by their side and he STILL gets shit for having any moments of frustration or selfishness. At this point, I am waiting for him to have his rightful arc by himself (or with Hermie if he remembers to bring him along) where he gets to embrace the Doodler and show it the love it lacked (and maybe in turn get some sick ass powers or just be embraced back and be supported in his own goals for once).
Taylor bonding with Nicky was so sweet. I'm glad that they actually took a moment to show that Nicky cares about Taylor and Taylor, given the chance, would absolutely love to spend time with his super cool dad. The saddest part of S1 trial arc was seeing how alone Nicky felt and how much he kept from Glenn because he didn't feel like he could be vulnerable and it's nice to know that Nicky is trying to connect and be there for his son. EVEN THOUGH ANTHONY FUCKING CUT HIM IN HALF AFTER THAT.
I have so many more thoughts but I really have to stop it here or it'll never end

Heyyy!! Congratulations on 1k!!I’m here for the matchup event>:)!
Fandom: Tokyo rev and platonic matchup please<3(any gender)
Personality: At first I might seem like a silent and a distant person cuz I’m not good at communicating with new people. I don’t click with a lot of people, that being the reason I have only a little friend group who I don’t feel awkward around. But after you get to know me, I’m actually a completely different person - really talkative, loud and smiley even though I can get angered and annoyed really easily. When I am, I get really passive aggressive & I tend to stay quiet not to lash out at other people or accidentally hurt them. But if spoken to and I decide to speak back, my tone does not sound aggressive and speak with short sentences, trying to avoid having a long conversation. A good trait of mine is that I’m a good listener and supportive. I really like supporting people I care about and love in any way & their achievements make me truly happy<3 I’m a BIG daydreamer and my head is often in the clouds😭 I cope with stressful events/distract myself from negative emotions by daydreaming and convincing myself they didnt happen. I’m also a VERY BIG procrastinator and do everything at the last possible moment, mostly because I’m too lazy to do it at that moment. I literally can’t have a straight face and be serious no matter what is going on(except if it’s really serious, then I get serious too lol.) I’m responsible when I need to be & I HATE when I bring people down and don’t meet their expectation.
Sun: Capricorn Moon: Taurus Rising: Capricorn
Mbti: Isfp-t (I’m so sorry I forgot my enneagram💀)
My hobbies: I play guitar and attend a volleyball school. besides that I really enjoy cloudgazing<33!! It’s my favorite thing to do. I even have a speacial lil spot I cloudgaze at & I take my friends there from time to time:) I also love listening to music but idk if that’s a hobby😭
What I value in friendship: Loyalty and being there for each other when the other needs it:) Also patience, since it’s really hard to understand me sometimes and I usually don’t mean things I say. Someone with the same humorous with the same humor as me. Being supportive and HYPING EACH OTHER UP>>>
Extra stuff:
whenever I’m angry, a hug is the only thing that calms me down. Like I go soft and my anger immediately fades away. I really get all soft and mushy whenever someone shows affection towards me in general.
Whenever I’m nervous I just play with my hands or with the sleeves of my shirt. I used to chew my shirt too but I let go of that trait💀
I laugh a LOT and my laugh is very loud. I get very happy when I succeed at making people around me laugh too:)
The best compliment i could get is “ur funny” IDK WHY BUT IT MAKES ME HAPPY-
My fav season gotta be winter cuz of all the fun stuff & new year and Christmas are my fav holidays<3
IM TIRED AND HAVE NO ENERGY 24/7
Scenario: Something like helping each other confess to our crushes and helping to plan each other’s dates but messing everything up would be really funny jdkwdkjd or just generally hanging out together.
Once again congratulations!! Take your time writing thing and don’t forget to take care:)!!
-🫐
1000 Follower Event Matchup #32
This event is CLOSED. You can find the event masterlist here.
Note: 🫐anon! Hello and thank you for participating. I'm sorry you had to wait this long for your matchup! It's been a tough year :3 I hope you still enjoy it though! Thank you <3
Tumblr media
I match you with: TAKEMITCHI (platonic)
Runner-up: Emma
Takemitchi:
Tumblr media
(Too lazy to edit a picture for him since I don’t take requests for Takemichi :3)
The main reason why I picked Takemichi is because you said you value loyalty in a friendship, and have you seen the lengths this man has gone for his GF and friends??? He’s SUPER loyal
So loyal, that he pushes himself despite how how weak and cowardly he may feel inside
Probably one of the best friends you’ll find; if you ever need him, he’d be there for you, even if it’s 3am
He’s one of the few people you can be yourself around without judgment, and he comes as a package deal with Hinata and Chifuyu so you have your little friend group with them
On the days when you’re all free, you go cloud gazing, enjoying silence, as your watch the clouds and get lost in your daydreams, happy that you have three friends to hangout with like that
Takemichi brings you your favorite drink and foods, memorizing all your favorite things and little habits as your best friend
Whenever you laugh together, your laughs makes each other laugh even harder
Hugs you and reassures you that he’s there for you whenever you need it
How do you help each other confess to your crushes?
Well with him, you were the one that had to push him to make a move on Hinata–he was a lost cause without you and would still be single to this day had you not encouraged him to confess
As for Takemichi, he fakes it till he makes it, giving you all this advice from his own relationship experience, even though half of it isn’t helpful at all
Hina usually gives him the right words to say and he relays them to you, pushing you to at least try confessing because you never know what the other person may feel as well…you’ll never know till you try

Hello! Could I ask for a twst matchup please? I'm Nord, and I go by she/her.
For personality, I've been told I'm a little mischievous but sweet and calming to be around. I'm definitely more on the introverted side but can come off as extroverted due to my friendly nature. Generally, I have a lot of patience and don't tend to get angry unless it's on the behalf of others. I worry for those around me more than myself and nag when I grow concerned ^^; Some of my other traits include being competitive, curious, stubborn and detail-oriented. overall, I have a lot of emotions but do my best to express them in a way that's not a nuisance for anybody. I just want to enjoy the little things in life!
I write short stories, play video games, watch anime (especially horror and comedy), bake and take walks in the nature in my free time. I also love dogs, and tea. I’m currently studying english and geography! Reciting poetry and quotes help me sleep.
As for love languages, I love giving gifts (especially self-made trinkets like jewellery and I will spoil my partner with them), acts of service and quality time. I'm clumsy with words of affirmation but also a bit of an accidental flirt because I like complimenting people??
Thank you so much, take your time and have a good day <33
Hello there my beloved! So sorry it took so long to get this out, but I have your request in my hands no, you’ll be okay…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I match you with…
Riddle Rosehearts!
Tumblr media
——————————-
So, hear me out. Riddle isn’t so bad, we all know this. It’s just his mom who’s kind of a sucker for so much control it’s damaging (homie here can relate 😭 saddest of enbies). But I swear, I know what I’m doing. This is full of tragedy, but a hopeful ending for the couple you guys make.
With how extroverted you initially came off to him, Riddle thought you were a massive rule breaker. If that’s not one thing he despises intensely, the world must be ending otherwise. He only saw how angry you got at him for collaring Ace, shouting every word you could possibly throw at his noggin to clarify how dumb he is for following all the rules to a T. After his Overblot, he gets to really meet you and appreciate who you are as you finally let your walls come down.
Instead of anger, he sees the endless amount of worry you put into everyone, which is no easy feat since there’s quite a few of them you eventually friend along the way. He’s even accidentally figured out when you start showing massive red flags for burning out severely, but unfortunately he doesn’t quite realize what burnout is and allows it to get to the point where you finally break (I’ll make that bit into its own bullet point, don’t worry-). When Riddle tries hanging out with you for the first time, he really sees how quiet you are. It even gets to the point he forgot you were there until ADeuce decided to start a competition over something completely dumb and dragged you into the mix. He saved you, don’t worry. Someone’s gotta have a tight grip on these boys
After that accident occurred, Riddle couldn’t help but notice how often you suppressed your own feelings in favor of the others around you, no matter how much you didn’t agree with it. He had to think about how to approach that whole separate issue without coming off arrogant because he knows you’re just trying to enjoy the moment, but you’re too caught up in worrying about everyone else you forget to enjoy it too. He doesn’t get a chance to talk about this with you before your burnout hits you full force, but he did manage to snag a conversation between Trey and Cater about it so he wasn’t totally off the rails (and he was right according to that duo, you needed help ASAP!)
Eventually, your burnout hits. And when I say hard, I mean even Rook Hunt, notorious for finding anything to be prey, couldn’t find you on his first sweep of the entire campus grounds. On top of that, Idia, despite having cameras in the weirdest and oddest of spots, couldn’t see you from his cameras. Being worried would be an understatement for Riddle, he’s trying to not completely panic while you’re missing. It’s when he finally decides to search his rose maze that he finds you curled up into a ball on the ground next to a pavilion crying your eyes out. He sits there and tries to figure out how to comfort you (let’s be honest, this boy is more emotionally constipated than you homie), but he eventually settles on stories from when he was younger and was still allowed to speak Trey and Chenya. He eventually stops because his mother finds out and no longer wishes to upset you further (though we both know what happened that fateful day). He honestly thanks you for your deed from so long ago, apologizing that he should have done it sooner than begging apologies with you back then. Riddle offers you a hand and you inevitably take it, he’s guiding your back to his dorm while texting the group chat with the other House Wardens that you’re okay, but you definitely need space for now and a serious talk with everyone is long overdue
Loves that you’re already choosing to study in your free time as you should when you try to become a productive member of society, but is also (not so) secretly curious of your other hobbies. I’d like to think he’s just completely baffled at the concept of anime, but likes that it’s not just some cartoons his mother initially made him believe they were. On top of that, baking? You’ve made a perfectionist become less perfection and more creation in the kitchen baking together, though the others mustn’t see him in such a lovesick state of mind (a bit late since they saw it a long time ago, but this isn’t new for anyone)
When you start gifting him homemade jewelry out of nowhere, he thinks it’s a ploy to get him to do something for you, you’ll have to explain you like making these sorts of gifts for him. Once he understands it, he will now proudly wear and show off his jewelry that you’ve made any time and chance he gets. Riddle’s even got certain sets of jewelry he wears for special occasions now with how much he’s hoarded and made certain that no one made off with his precious jewels you so graciously gifted him
Finds himself completely flustered out of nowhere when you first accidentally compliment him, has to ask you to clarify that you actually meant it. When you’re outright confused at first then turned embarrassing shades of red, he gets the hint. More so when you cover your face with your hands and whine your apologies. It’s awkward the rest of the day between you two unless Cater does something about it, though in all honestly, he’s probably the one to make jokes at your expenses instead of doing the emotional breakdown for the two of you, especially if you’re in a relationship. He’s trying to get you guys to sort your problems out without his magnificent help after all
All in all, Riddle’s so appreciative of this relationship you guys built together. He’s working on finding himself through some of your interests that aren’t necessarily beneficial all the time (if he hasn’t found a loophole in everything at some point I’ll be surprised). He just feels so free with you, but he still gets to keep the things that help him stay grounded like some of the many rules he used to live by. While he’s managing his anger, he’s also being the best partner you could manage with all the quality time being his favorite love language. He just so enamored by you and your captivating charms, why would he resist someone who really loves him?
===================
And the follow ups are:
Ruggie
And
Epel Felmier
——————————
That’s all folks! Until next time!

10.) Which version of Leonardo is your favorite?
11.) Which version of Raphael is your favorite?
12.) Which version of Donatello is your favorite?
13.) Which version of Michelangelo is your favorite?
15.) Which version of April is your favorite?
16.) Which version of Casey is your favorite?
| TMNT ask game
XD Boy I hope I don't sound like a broken record over time im sure two are obvious at least. also I didn't have to be this extra but too bad XD
10.) Which version of Leonardo is your favorite?
Tumblr media
XD Leo is funny cause he bounces from second fave to least fave but I really do like Leo. 12, 03 and Mayhem being some of my all time favorite versions of him. 03 Leo's emo arch his moments of ego shining through that I feel people miss and the dork he is like practicing one liners. Who could for 12 Leo though I really love that that went more into the nerd Leo can be just in general both for Ninja stuff and being a hero even his favorite show. XD I really miss his first voice so much i know what happened but I can still miss the sound of it XD Mayhem Leo I know we still got more to see but I really love how they are making him out to be even with his rizzless ass XD
11.) Which version of Raphael is your favorite?
Tumblr media
Of course my favorite turtle of all I have the most picks for XD 03 Raph will always be my all time favorite. 12 in close second of course. I just like how both went about showing that Raph may be the angry turtle but he is also the most protective and caring just very passionate dealing with an anger he doesn't know what todo with but means no harm. 87 Raph is my damn spirt animal I swear so many lines im just thats me too XD He also just so funny never fails to get me to smile. I am loving the little shit that Mayhem Raph is and I look forward to see what they do with him ;3; If your new here you may not know how obessed I am with the MMPR cross over comic. Esp the 2nd one But I ADORE THIS RAPH SO MUCH. Even in the first run I feel he got a lot of spot light and focus. He just so well written I love him I need to draw and write stuff for him give him more love ;3; Forgot to add But I also love the 07 movie Raph the nightwatcher stuff is always one of my favorite parts of the movie and I like the arch he goes through in the film with Leo.
12.) Which version of Donatello is your favorite?
Tumblr media
NOW 12 may not be on here but I do actually love him a lot but I will say these 3 are my absolute ones. I grew up with 03 so of course Don is gonna be there on favs he is often my second favorite because he can be so damn sassy also Don gets a lot of messed up stuff to deal with/ go through. I also feel he the one to really show that whole kind heart genius aspect the most. 87 Don? omg he is just great XD I love him hes a menace to society and the world is lucky he aint evil I never get over him bitch slapping Leo on sight XD Mayhem Donnie didn't get much spot light and Im hoping we will see more with the series but hes a little nerd and I love him being a weeb it's cute like his ginat ass glasses ;3; also hes such a little brat XD
13.) Which version of Michelangelo is your favorite?
Tumblr media
MIKEY! I think Mikey is the reason I love sunshine charaters. I think a big part of why I love 12 Mikey so much is because of his VA I just love Greg Cipes as a VA and person hes just so chill. And I like the portrayal of Mikey in 12 he would get kidnapped find a way to break free only to find his brothers trying to save him and offer to go back so they could XD. 03 Mikey I love more now than as a kid which sounds funny consider how I started this bit XD I sometimes found him annoying but I have more appreciation for him now . Like the rest I really have just come to like all the mayham turtles XD and I look forward to what more we will see of them I like how clam he comes off? Curious to see if they do more with that since he seems to be a peace makers with his brothers.
15.) Which version of April is your favorite?
Tumblr media
Don't get me wrong I like April but shes not often a favorite charater of mine XD 03 April of course I always liked the whole her being into science and such especially since she is often closest to Donatello. I do like her big sister role in 03 as well and just how protective the turtles get for her and how she insists she is family. I am not really a fan of the rise iteration XD But I do really love April in Rise she was very fun I wish she was in the show more though I'm glad she got to be part of the main fight at the end though.
16.) Which version of Casey is your favorite?
Tumblr media
I for sure love Casey a lot more though XD Hes actually my second favorite human charater/ favorite ally. I just wish Casey got more love out of the series cause sometimes it feels like he gets forgotten too much. Anyway gotta throw 03 Casey in first place cause hes kind of my measurement on what I feel makes for a good casey XD Of course hes a reckless nut case but they really touch on the softer side of his charater mostly shown through his friendship with Raph and his relationship with April. He isn't just looking to wreck things he wants to generally do some good because hes grown up in the rough parts of the city and he knows how bad it can be. 12 Casey Man I wish he got more focus in the series he really got done dirty a lot of the time and I find the hate for him stupid. I love the add parts 12 gave to Casey just really selling that hes kind of a loser and out cast himself so course he fits in well with the turtles over other humans. we get small glipmses into his own softer side but they never got to really be expanded on. MMPR cross over once again! He didnt have much role in the first one but the second? YES! I love the story so much Casey betraying his friends his and Raph stuff cuts me deep It really made for a good story and I look forward to what they will do with casey in the possible next part of this story >> 87 Casey look hes only in four episodes I know BUT THEY ARE GREAT EPISODES Well 3 of the four actually focus on him but my point stands XD I just love the insanity of his character

OKI HERE
Also I’m open to suggestions if you have any.
like anything to fix or maybe a thing to add or continue the scene
Oki now here ya go for reals-
“Hey Auzzi?” I pronounced, gently taking the monster’s hand from behind. I found him in one of the hallways, pretty far from the queen’s throne room.
“Hmm?” His nerves quite obviously tried to resist the smile and small blush that became present on his face as he turned towards me. He slipped his bookmark into the novel as he closed his book with his free hand.
“Apex was telling me about Antoine.”
Auzzi’s eyes widened. I guess he was trying to hide the snarl that escaped from his mouth. “And?” He said with a forced smile, his tail swaying in a slightly angry arch.
“Uh… She said you two hated each other from the first moment you saw one another. I came to ask you if that was the full truth.”
Auzzi now let out a full growl. “Of course it is! You can go ask that jerk of a prince all about it; I’m sure he’d love to answer. You can go listen to his long boring rants about how he was right in every way and I was nothing better than that Satan thing Tommy told him about.”
He had let go of my hand, now pacing back and forth. I’m pretty sure you could tell by just his hand movements how angry he was.
“That furball was nothing more than a little-”
“Hey, hey.” I stepped up and took Auzzi’s hands back in mine. “Calm down. It was just a small question. No reason to get so heated about it.”
Auzzi sighed and slumped against the wall, once again letting go of me. He grabbed his horns as he tucked his head between his knees. “I just don’t understand why he gets to die and still come back as some super awesome fallen guardian angel or whatever he is now.” He had tears in his eyes now. “I can’t even get physically hurt!”
I sat down next to Auzzi, leaning against him and wrapping my arms around his torso. “I’m sure you can. You just haven’t been hit in the right spot yet.”
“I’ve shoved a knife in every inch of my body and it just went through as if I were made of jelly.”
I paused, unsure of what to say. “W-well, maybe a knife isn’t the right thing?” I suggested, but it was quickly shot down by the glare Auzzi gave me. I sighed. “Why do you want to be hurt anyways?”
He huffed angrily. “Just forget it.”
“I’m sorry.”
We sat there in silence afterwards. I played with the strings on his corset, him giggling every now and then as my fingers brushed his ticklish skin underneath, but the laughter didn’t last long before his expression changed back to the slight snarl.
I guess I must have fallen asleep on Auzzi, because it was dark in the palace when I opened my eyes. I looked around, jumping when a dragon I’ve not met bent it’s head down to our level. Auzzi was awake too, his breathing slightly rapid. I looked at him, watching his eyes move frantically.
He probably couldn’t see anything with the lack of light, given how he often complains that he can’t see all that well in normal light. He had one arm wrapped around me, his hand squeezing my hoodie so hard I would probably be bleeding if he was holding any other part of me.
“Luke? Where are we?”
I opened my mouth to answer when the dragon, whom I forgot about, growled, “You’re in the palace hallway, bug.”
Auzzi growled, though his breathing slowed a bit. “You should know better than to call me a bug, Marshal.”
The dragon, Marshal, chuckled in a deep voice. “I’m sure you can handle it.”
“Marshy, leave them alone. It’s the middle of the night!” A new dragon came into the hallway, holding a torch.
I could now see my surroundings clearly. The first dragon was tall and had dark fur and curly hair. The second looked just like the first, only with a much lighter pallet of colors. These dragons must be the twins Donny and Sorio were telling me about.
If that one’s Marshal, I thought, pointing to them in my head, Then that one must be Charley!
I tried to stand, but Auzzi held me close to him. “Why are you even here?” He growled.
Marshal rolled his eyes and looked at Charley. “But I couldn’t sleep! This bug snores too loudly!” I almost let out an audiable growl as the dragon motioned to Auzzi with his wing.
This time, Auzzi tried to stand, his normally soft hands forming into rock solid claws. I grabbed him by the horn, pulling him down. He looked at me, confused as I shook my head.
heyyy, you remember my OC Auzzi?
ya why

Imagine: being best friends with Chief Hopper and Not realizing he was madly in love with you
Shoving Hopper in the arm trying to get his attention he was looking over at your head spying on El who he spotted in the crowd on the street with Mike and her friends. you were looking into a video of a pet shop. seeing a Small kitten in the window curled up fast asleep. 
“This kitten looks like my old cat. Meow.” 
he looked down hearing that he couldn’t help the small grin appearing on his head as he spoke, ‘your cat’s Name was Meow?” 
smiling you nodded your head smiling, ‘yea- she always meowed. it was perfect she was a Devil of a cat. so mouthy- but this kitten is cute hey?” 
Hopper couldn’t care less if the cat looked cute or not- he wasn’t a huge cat fan he was more of a dog person. and he knew you were both. you preferred larger dogs vs smaller dogs. and he knew that your favorite color was Blue but you tell everyone it’s purple just because you got into a fight in elementary school over it. when some Jerk mocked your favorite color cause you’re a girl and you should like Pink. you ended up breaking his nose pouching him and your dad was furious but Hopp couldn’t help but also be proud hearing the story the first time. you were an unlikely match. your father Hated Hopper probably because of the age difference and the fact he was an unmarried man, who once had a wife and kid but now lived alone. with his daughter in the woods.
then there was you. the brightest light in his life and of all of the town, you came to the town after university for a teaching job. your first job after graduating and you met the chief of police by accident and a friendship formed. Almost instantly.  
Joyce, Elle, Everyone In Hops life realized he was hooked on you since the first moment when he snapped at you, and you snapped back and called him a Codfish. he wanted to Wring your neck but then see your angry face. he couldn’t help but realize how adorable it looked and he was a goner since. 
“Hey- I’m Still coming over later for Beer and to watch that show Right?” 
“what?’ 
Hopper couldn’t remember if he asked you over, he probably didn’t he tried to keep you out of his cabin if Elle wasn’t around. mainly because he didn’t trust himself to not try to undress you and try to have you in every corner of his Cabin. you laughed nodding your head, “yea you said, “Hey Butt-head you’re coming over for beer and steak? and I said Yes Jerkward. and then you said we would watch that New space show? None of this ringing a bell?” 
he then remembered asking you that- But then Elle decided she was going out and he forgot to come up with an excuse to not have you over as you patted his broad shoulder, “It’s a good thing your cute- that head of your doesn’t work much.’ he chuckled softly as he spoke, “Yea yea” 
Later Hopper was visiting with Joyce telling him h’s problem as she chuckled, “you better tell her how much you love her before someone else notices her.” 
“What if I lose her?” 
“I highly doubt it- She is far too hooked on you.’ 
“what?” 
Joyce nodded her head, “she was in here last week asking how to ask you out.” 
“And you waited until NOW to tell me! damn it, Joyce!” Hopper ran off as Joyce sighed heavily hoping her master plan wouldn’t blow up in her face.
