YOUR DAILY ROUTINE 5 YEARS FROM NOW

This is a general reading based on a collective of people. Take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. If you don’t feel like the pile resonates with you, don’t be scared to pick another, if it still doesn’t feel right, that’s ok! Maybe our energies aren’t as connected and my readings are not for you.

I do these strictly for fun and educational purposes. I do not charge for these readings, and I do not fake readings. I would tell you the cards I get for the readings, but I pull like 15-20 cards each reading and that is just slightly a strenuous task to write them all down lmao.

PICK A CARD READING

I asked my spirit guides what your daily routine looks like in 5 years time, pick a card to find out what they had to say!

Pile 1 ———> Pile 2 ———> Pile 3

DISCLAIMER: the timelines I give are not the period as a whole, they are just an estimate of the time when these events could happen.

PILE 1

7:00-7:30am: Wake up, I got the lyric “7am the usual morning line up” from “When will my life begin?” Rapunzel, so you guys are waking up early. The first thing you do is either feed your pets or children, I’m getting heavy dogs for those of you who don’t have kids by this time, but I am seeing a lot of children vibes.

8:00-900am: Showering and getting ready, if you have kids, your partner will be up and looking after them for you, or this will be the time you take them to school. I feel like you’ll be listening to podcasts or ted talks every morning to get you ready for the day.

9:30-10:00am: Checking emails? You might be working from home and checking your emails or messages from clients or employers. I see you sat at your desk with a warm cup of something, going through things on your computer, your partner walks in and lets you know that they’re leaving for work now.

10:30-11:30am: Work work work, you guys will find yourself dealing with a lot of work during this time, however I do think that you make money by the hour, some of you could have a job that ensures you get paid separately by each client (like Tarot or something)

12:00-1:00pm: Making lunch for your partner, you guys will either go out to buy it and then drop it by their work, or you will make it yourself so that it feels special. Some of you could be seen as the “trophy spouse” when it comes to your partners work, they all think you’re a doll and are probably jealous of the food that you bring for your partner.

1:30-2:00pm: You can do whatever you want, this is your break time to go shopping or chill on the couch and watch your favourite show, I see that this changes often so you may like to do different things during this break, it’s not something that is set in stone forever.

2:00-3:00pm: Back to work, I feel this is when you do your best and most progressive work, some of you may be balancing another online job like authoring or possibly being a ghost writer for someone else. This is the time when you would absolutely hate to be distracted or interrupted.

3:00:3:30pm: Your final time to rest up before having to pick up the kids or take your dogs on a walk. During this time you might make yourself a snack, tidy the house (although I feel like you guys have a cleaner)

3:30-4:00pm: Little bit of a messy thirty minutes, you’re rushing around, which is why I think kids could be involved here, the school pick up is never easy lmao. For those of you who don’t have kids, this may just be you being dragged around the street by your dogs (I think they are large)

4:30-5:00pm: Your partner is home! You are also probably dealing with your children fighting during this time LMAOO, one of them wants the TV remote and the other is pissed. This could also be your time to catch up with your partner and tell each other about your day.

5:00-6:00pm: Dinner time, I do think you’ll be the one making dinner, but you definitely want to, sometimes your partner helps you out, but since you did the school run both ways, they’re looking after the kids for you now. You spend a while on cooking, you may even get it prepared around lunch time, throwing some meat in the slow cooker for later.

6:00-7:00pm: wind down time with family, chilling on the couch with the pets, watching as the kids play on the trampoline outside, relaxing in the arms of your significant other. Very calm energy for this.

7:30pm-9:30pm: The battle of the demons, time to put the kids to bed! The kids don’t like going to bed. “But I went to sleep yesterday!” You’ll have a field trip with these.

10:00pm-12:00am: You wanna get spicy with your partner? You can, here’s your opportunity. I do see you guys trying to make another kid around this time if you already have them, or perhaps this is your first. Relaxing in bed with your significant other, I’m seeing someone counting 100 dollar bills, so take that as you will, you may even take a shower together to end the night, or possibly getting wet in other ways is your way to close the day.

PILE 2

5:00-6:00am: Wake up. You guys may have to commute to work, and need to wake up early, for some of you, your work could be over seas, like if you lived in Paris but commuted to London for work everyday using the tunnel, or if you lived on the Isle Of White in the UK and needed to travel on a ferry to get to your job, either way, you’re waking up before the sun rises.

7:00-9:00am: Work, you’re at work for the majority of the day now, your job itself seems something that you’re used to and like doing, a lot of you may have to coordinate meetings, so you could be a higher up. There does seem to be a tad of stress here and there, for a few this may be caused by need of public speaking, for others there could be workplace drama.

10:00am-4:00pm: The people around you look up to you a lot, you may own a company or share management of it, there is a possibility of you working in something which involves fighting, a few of you may be in the army, and this could be the cause for the early wake up and start to the day. Either way, whatever you’re doing, you are the head of it, people have to work with you in order to climb the ranks and better improve their chance of success. You could honestly be in control of pay upgrades and promotions for your business or workplace. I see you making a lot of money by having a lot of control.

5:00-6:00pm: Home time, I see you making dinner or possibly even ordering out, although I do think that you have a healthy diet and lifestyle. A few of you could have your own cook, or utilise certain artificial intelligence that makes food??? (I don’t know bro, my guides seem to think that could be a thing of the future, you could have an online recipe book that you follow)

7:30-10:00pm: Resting up or doing whatever you want. I can’t get a strong read on this as I think it changes each day, you could sometimes go on a run, other time you’re baking cookies on call with your mother. I do think you have a strict schedule you follow when it becomes time to go to bed, you sleep like a log lmao. Some of you may be looking for a relationship at this time, and this could be the entry period for going on dates, perhaps you go on multiple dates a night lol, you seem to be the life of the party either way. A lot of you don’t drink, I see someone at a bar holding a juice box so take that as you will.

Sorry it was so short pile 2! Your day is much more put together and scheduled.

PILE 3

4:00-9:00am: If you have a young baby at this time, you may immediately go to nursing them as soon as you wake up, it honestly could even be that you’ve woken up early morning, your partner comes over to your side of the bed holding the baby, hands it to you. I do see a lot of stress around this time, so honestly I think the majority, if not all of you will have kids in five years time.

7:00-9:00am: I see you spending this time laying in your bed with your partner, possibly the kids have joined you now and you’re all just relaxing watching some TV for the few hours that you have until the morning begins and you need to get up and ready. For the few of you who may not be in a relationship or have kids, this could be a pet perhaps that you are spending the early morning with.

8:00-10:00am: You’re getting out of bed around this time and heading to the kitchen to get some breakfast started, you may have time to take a quick shower around this time, your partner will be looking after the kids, getting them all ready for the day so they can come and eat breakfast in time when it’s made.

8:30-9:00am: Some big change happens around this time, it may be that the kids are taken to school, or you perhaps take them to school. I’m seeing that this is the moment you begin your work for the day, I’m not too sure if you leave the house for it, I think so, as it does seem that there’s a change of scenery.

10:00am-12:00pm: This time is spent getting everything together for your job, I am seeing someone grabbing some coffee, if you work a corporate job, you’ll be getting yourself and some other people some coffee, collecting papers to make sure all your paperwork is complete. Some of you could be a therapist, psychologist or something to do with examining people, this is when you grab all your stuff to prepare for your clients, possible meetings etc.

12:00-1:00pm: A lot of teamwork around this time, this will be your first meeting of the day, first client, first job that you are supposed to complete. I see a need to write down a lot of stuff, you may even have a meeting presentation during this hour. Your lunch time may appear late, you perhaps have a job that runs over the normal lunch hour, so you go on your break in the next 1-2 hours.

2:00-3:00pm: Lunch time, I feel like you will leave your work building to go and buy lunch elsewhere, or perhaps your partner will bring you lunch themself, you might even order it into your section. You could be getting paid this time everyday, or you may count up your money for the day at this point.

3:30-4:00pm: You get to decide what you do here, I think sometimes you get the opportunity to go home at this time, other days you have to stay a little later, I think it depends on your schedule and the day of the week.

5:00-6:00pm: You get home during this period, I see there possibly being some time for you to relax and so what you want, before your partner and kids come home, some of you may have family around at this time each day? Or perhaps you live with extended family members and they will be making dinner for you, or getting some things done.

7:00pm-12:00am: A lot of you honestly could have family helping around the house, or perhaps you even have personal butlers, I don’t see you having to do much when it comes to making dinner, getting the kids to bed or anything, I see that you’ll be working hard on some paperwork that needs finishing, or getting your schedule ready for tomorrow, you’ll mainly be focusing on your work during this period too, I feel like you like to be prepared. You may get intimate with your partner during this time, I don’t see it lasting for too long as I think they go to bed earlier than you.

[ruggiesbiologicalfather]

i've been struck by inspiration

here's my ranking of twisted wonderland students by how likely i'd be to let them behind the wheel of a car. this is gonna be a long one bc i'm including explanations of course. (and i know that in-game it's rare to be able to drive, we're ignoring that and pretending it's common to drive around)

1. Leona: canonically, he can drive and drive well. i feel like this was an easy one. but it makes sense!

2. Vil: he just has so many random skills that i feel like driving would be no problem at all. honestly, there's not much that i think vil CAN'T do

3. Trey: everything about him screams Responsible Driver. he would definitely play chauffeur for heartslabyul whenever they need to go somewhere. AND he'd have snacks in the glove compartment. 10/10 ride

4. Jamil: he can absolutely drive well - near perfect i'd argue. what's the alternative? let KALIM drive? get real. it's his duty to get where he needs to go safely

5. Jack: the self-discipline that this boy possesses is unrivaled. he would be locked in behind the wheel. he spent so long becoming the best driver he can be and by god, he's gonna prove it

6. Deuce: LISTEN TO ME, LISTEN! he's really good on that blastcycle which is more dangerous and difficult (said as a former bike/atv guy). a car is nothing to him. plus he's on his Honor Student streak so he's trying his best. my only worry is speed. slow it down, friend

7. Epel: similar to deuce. farm kids learn to drive really early in their lives. HOWEVER... driving safely?? hmmmm... his biggest flaws are going too fast and whipping around curves when no one else is on the road

8. Riddle: he would definitely follow all the road rules. to the letter. every trip would take an extra 30 minutes to an hour. no music, windows up, silence. he won't even let YOU be on your phone lest he become distracted. also ROAD RAGE. interstate driving would get very scary

9. Ortho: fuck it, let the robot give it a shot

10. Azul: i feel like once he figured out the mechanics, he would be fine on the road. however, if he got pulled over he would definitely argue with the cop and get us both arrested. so... i'm gonna pass

11. Jade: yes, we're getting where we need to go. but... nefariously. and there's something in the trunk. i feel like he'd also randomly go "oops" just to freak out his passengers. "what do you mean OOPS?" "don't worry about it :)"

12. Ruggie: there's a wildness to my boy that drove his ranking down. he would definitely drive a jeep with the doors off. music blasting, wind whipping around everywhere. it would be a fairly safe drive but not a particularly enjoyable one. also i would fall out

13. Silver: i don't know, i feel like he would be chill. i put him low bc briar valley doesn't have cars so his driving education would be quite scarce and he'd be a new driver. but he could get the job done. probably

14. Sebek: similar to silver but he needs to relax. malleus is fine, we're just going to walmart

15. Ace: he just gives off the vibe of "16-year-old kid in the car his dad bought for him." never lets anyone merge, hits curbs, can never figure out the speed limit, etc, etc. even worse if deuce is in the car! "ace, watch out for the mailbox!" "don't tell me what to- *BANG*"

16. Cater: gay people can't drive

17. Rook: distracted driver. god forbid there's wildlife around, he would turn 180 in his seat to look at it. this Oh Shit Handle is getting some use. also i KNOW his car would be shit. i don't care that his family is rich, he's driving a 2003 hyundai sonata

18. Floyd: LISTEN! there's a 50/50 shot that everything goes perfectly fine. like as long as he's in a good mood, he can get the job done. you definitely just have to check in before you buckle up. get ready to tuck and roll

19. Malleus: what is a car?

20. Idia: there's so much anxiety there i feel like one thing would go slightly left and he'd almost pass out. he's white-knuckling the wheel, praying that no one else is on the road. it's alright buddy, you can be a passenger princess

21. Kalim: No.

22. Grim + Yuu: okay, for this one it's a joint effort. yuu at the wheel and grim on the pedals. there's so much chaos and screaming. four-way stops don't exist. yellow lights are green and red lights are yellow. the horn has not stopped honking since the engine started. this is an emergency situation ONLY. like someone is bleeding out in the backseat and no one is answering their phones

23. Lilia: absolutely not. i will walk

[thecapricunt1616]

It’s 5:30 am and I literally have been awake for the past 3 hours trying to fall asleep but this fucking guy

This beautiful British blonde FUCK has been plaguing my every brain cell and it’s SICK. Thinking abt early mornings with him and how tender and sweet he’d be GRRRAH (more BTC)

But okok so imagine you’re having a hard time falling back asleep, it’s like 3:45 am but you don’t care, it’s actually a pleasant surprise for you when you wake earlier then normal, because your man isn’t usually far behind.

Like Carmy, he wants to be the first one up, the first one ready, the first one that gets to work. So naturally he’s rousing at 4, taking a good 5 minutes to lay with you and smother you in gentle kisses, light enough to assure you wouldn’t wake too soon, but enough to satisfy himself that he gave you enough love and attention before he got to work.

That is something different between those two. Carmy sees a relationship as a distraction and something he needs to tread carefully with so he doesn’t dedicate too much of his mind or time to it - but Luca? He worships his girl, and he will spend any second possible at your side while still maintaining his regimented routine.

Lucas anxiety comes about time, it’s different than Carmys. Luca is always early, he has mastered knowing the very minute he has to be out of bed and taking the 5 steps to the boat houses bathroom and cutting the water on that takes 3 minutes to come to a comfortable temperature. But until then? He is kissing your cheeks, your nose, your hairline, your neck, your chest, your stomach, your thighs. He’s snuggling you close and whispering how much he loves you, and his plans for the day even if he well knows you’re dead to the world still.

He would work extra minutes and seconds into his morning routine between brushing his teeth and getting dressed and styling his hair he would come and give you a sweet kiss to the head or lips, sometimes gently caressing your hair if you stirred from the action.

But this particular morning, Luca was elated, but a bit confused, to see you looking right back at him when he hit stop on his alarm after the second beep. “Morning, trying to come for my gig as being the early riser in this relationship?” His voice was deep and rich with sleep. He pulled you in, kissing the top of your head and rubbing your back soothingly which caused your eyes to flutter shut at the lovely feeling. He was so warm, he smelt so distinctly him. You nuzzled your face into his bare chest, planting gentle kisses on the skin

“The universe is against me. I feel tired but I’ve been laying with my eyes closed for hours, this is helping though- but I don’t want it to now cause I love you and wanna talk” you said and he chuckled a bit, kissing the top of your head again and giving you a loving squeeze

“I love you, darling. What’s on your mind, mm?” He asked and gently pets your hair. You nuzzle into his neck, a small smile on your lips.

“I’m not telling you cause you work too hard as it is” you said and he smiled himself, snorting a laugh

“So you’re thinking of something you want to eat, got it. Well what is plaguing that pretty mind baby I may have some spare time today” he resumed his gentle back rub, his short nails running along your skin and giving you goosebumps where he touched.

“Lemon posset” you admit and he hums, pressing another kiss to your forehead this time

“And why do you think that’s so hard love? I’ll bring you some back later.” He said and you groan

“Luca you work 10 hours today, I’d rather you be home with me then making me some stupid intricate craving”

“Hush, I can work it out love don’t worry. Just gotta move some things around it’ll be no big deal”

And yeah he’s gonna be home early, with dessert and dinner - just to prove a point that he knows how to manage his time

၄၃ every summertime | #1

ʚɞ " your presence is calming like the waves in the ocean. "

♡ pairing ! satoru gojo x reader | summary; you fell in love with someone who's dearly close to you, but situations happen that made you think if it's all worth it.

❀ August 10 2007 You guys were both eighteen, both undergrads but one of you was a rich kid who came from a wealthy family who CAN clearly skip an entire year of college with their status— of course, it's Gojo Satoru. Your obnoxiously handsome and attractive friend, you, yourself don't even know how you became friends with him in the first place. He was lowkey a bad influence to you since you started staying out late with him and never made it to class which obviously affected your attendance ( mind you, you were aiming to get perfect attendance this semester. ) Kyoto in a taxi cab, and he was sweating bullets on the way to his dad's— it's not like you guys were dating or whatever, but it was the first time he brought his girl best friend to his home.

It wasn't really a surprise when he brought a girl home, but when he introduced you to his parents— his father welcomed you with open up arms and said that you were the first girl that Satoru didn't bring as a another girlfriend of his. You settled on the couch that looked and felt expensive and comfortable, sitting on it felt illegal since it was probably more expensive than your entire life savings. Satoru sat next to you, his back resting on the backrest— and manspreading, his knees touching yours. You admired the interior of the mansion, it looked so clean and aesthetically pleasing to the eyes.

Then you felt someone nudging you by the arm, you looked to your side and saw Satoru holding up his phone annoyingly close to your face. You squinted then pushed his phone to his chest which made him huff, "What was that anyway?" You asked him, he had a cheeky grin on his face. "It's your baby picture." He said before giggling like a 5 year old. You rolled your eyes before taking his phone from his hands, he lets out a whine as you inspected the picture. "I look so cute here." I told him, he snorted as he took the phone from you. "I'm cuter though." He said, then a pillow was thrown across his face— he was absolutely stunned. How dare you? how could you throw a pillow to his beautiful and flawless face! A few minutes later, a pillow fight happened in the living room. You two acting like kids that didn't have a care in the world, then you two decided to stop since it was getting a bit messy in the room.

Hours passed and you decided to call it a day. "I'm going home noooow." You said to Satoru, who was clearly too occupied on his phone "Awwweeeee! alreadyy? stop being such a pooper." He whined, you rolled your eyes "Idiot, it's already 6:30 pm." You said as you picked up your bag that was on the carpeted floor, when you were about to walk out of the huge white door— you felt a tug on your shirt, turning your head and saw Satoru flashing a smile at you. You weren't quite sure if it was butterflies you were feeling or an ulcer. "At least let me walk you home, hmm?" He said in a sing song voice, you snorted. "Your home is literally 30 minutes away from mine." "Then I'll walk you to the bus station! oooor!" after a solid 10 minutes of him insisting, you finally let him. It was like you were walking your energetic dog without a leash, and he kept getting distracted while strolling around in the town. You guys stopped by a street light, and Satoru decided to act a bit goofy since there weren't any people on sight. Dancing around the street lights and he made you dance too, cause why not? After a while, you guys finally got to the bus stop and you two waved goodbye to each other.

hehe, sorry guys if this chapter didn't relate to the song :,((( but i'd love for you guys to leave suggestions/ideas ! it would mean alot to me<3

Home to Me (Cobra x reader)

part 2 of Home to You please read the first part before reading this one

Genre: It's just fluff, domestic relationship

Warnings: sex is mentioned, typical H&L violence, other than that I don't think there is anything but let me know if I missed anything

I usually write with fem pronouns and descriptions because that is what is easiest for me. If those do not fit you, please feel free to change whatever needs to be changed to fit you while you read!

Italics are a character's thoughts

The one where Cobra is waiting for you at home and reflects on how he's happy you come home to him (takes place after the 3 movies)

In my dreams I come home to you and you come home to me, and for a split second every hardship I ever endured has meaning.

⋅︓︒︑∘∗✧∘︑︒⚬∙︓⋅⠄✯∘⠄✧⠄⋅︓︒︑∘∗✧∘︑︒⚬∙︓⋅⠄✯∘⠄✧⠄

Cobra sat on the couch, impatiently looking at the clock on the wall.

10:30. She should be back any minute now.

He continued to wait on the couch. He was tired but didn't want to go to sleep not knowing whether or not you were home. Cobra also liked being the one to greet you after a long day considering you were home after him 8 times out of 10. He couldn't understand how you were so patient waiting for him to come back when he was out on S.W.O.R.D business those very few 2 out of 10 times.

Cobra looked at the clock again.

10:35. It's only been 5 minutes?! It feels like I've been sitting here forever!

Cobra checked his phone to see if you had messaged him about coming home later, but the last text was still the one from earlier saying that you would be home by 10:30.

Just as Cobra was thinking about finding something to distract him, he heard the front door unlock. Cobra got up and quickly went to the door, opening it for you before you could even grab the doorknob.

"Hi babe! Sorry I'm a little late, I had to grab some things," you said as you were putting your bags on the kitchen table.

Cobra hugged you from behind. "As long you're home that's all that matters to me. I was beginning to worry, you usually come home right on time. What's all this?" He asked as he looked at the bags you had previously set down on the kitchen table.

"Well, I had an early shift at the hospital today and couldn't come home until late so I couldn't do anything for your birthday today. I bought stuff on the way home to make you breakfast and lunch tomorrow before I leave for my late shift tomorrow as a belated birthday present."

"You didn't have to ___. Having you is enough."

"You always say that! So corny."

"I'm being serious. The best gift is you, being here with me."

"That reminds me! Sit down please." ___ got out of Cobra's arms, gently pushed him to sit down in a chair, ran to the cupboard to grab the lighter, and pulled a box out of one of the bags setting it in front of Cobra. ___ sat down and opened the box, revealing a pink cupcake with a single candle put into the middle.

"It's 10:45. You have 15 minutes left, make a wish."

"I have no wishes, my dream already came true."

"As sweet as that is, I'm begging you to stop being corny and make a wish before the day is over."

"I'm being serious."

"In that case, make a new wish, and then you can tell me all about the wish that already came true. Promise I won't interrupt you."

"Okay." Cobra closed his eyes and made his wish.

I'm so lucky to have you. I thank whatever higher beings are out there that granted my wish the very first time we did this. I couldn't ask for anything more than what I have already been given because you are my everything. If I had to absolutely wish for something new, it is that this love lasts until the end of our days together.

He opened his eyes and blew out the candle. "I'm done."

"10:50. 10 minutes to spare. Are you sure you don't want to squeeze in a few more wishes while you have time?"

"No, I think that was good."

"If you say so. I will cook for you tomorrow and since I didn't get to spend your birthday with you today, I will spend all morning and afternoon with you tomorrow. We can do whatever you want."

"Whatever I want? Anything?"

"Anything."

"So what if we-"

"Scratch that I take that back. Anything but have sex all day. I work at a hospital I can't go to work with wobbly legs. I do have to be able to walk for my job."

"How about you call out for the entire day so you can just stay with me?"

"I had to negotiate a lot to even get half the day off. I would love to but I can't."

"That's no fun."

"I know, I'm sorry."

"It's okay I have tonight."

___ laughed as her fiancé led her to their bedroom.

(Yes they do have sex but no I will not be writing it because genuinely idk how 😂)

⋅︓︒︑∘∗✧∘︑︒⚬∙︓⋅⠄✯∘⠄✧⠄⋅︓︒︑∘∗✧∘︑︒⚬∙︓⋅⠄✯∘⠄✧⠄

Cobra sat on the edge of your bed as he waited for you to finish taking a shower. You had forced him to take a solo shower tonight, knowing that if you went together the rounds would never end.

You came out of the bathroom, night routine done and tackled Cobra onto the bed.

"I hate you Cobra, now I'm really tired."

"You weren't saying that earlier."

"Well now I'm tired and it's your fault." The two of you laughed at each other.

"Let me adjust us into a more comfortable position." Cobra maneuvered you guys to be under the blankets, with his arms around your waist and your head laying on his chest.

"You didn't tell me about your wish that already came true."

"You see my wish that came true every time you look in the mirror my love."

"Why are you being so corny today? You're never like this. Cobra, Hino Junpei, doesn't like talking about his feelings ever..... Are you an imposter?! Give me my fiancé back! What did you do with him?" you said dramatically.

Cobra laughed as he pulled you closer to him. "Do you remember the first year we ever met?"

"I do. I was a struggling college student, trying to make it by. Studying and attending classes in the morning, and working at Itokan at night and on the weekends. When I had first moved back I was scared to take the nightshift but after a while, I wasn't scared anymore."

"Why is that?"

"I had you. You would sit in the corner of Itokan all night. I came back in the mornings to still find you under the blanket I draped over you the night before and I would set a glass of water and a painkiller by your arm so that when you woke up you had it there. I thought that that was just something you did until Naomi told me that you didn't actually stay over at Itokan unless you felt like avoiding going home. She said it wasn't often considering you spent most of your time at the gas station and then home alone. She said that a lot of the times she found you there was because you were waiting for me to go home. You would wake up after I left to go stay at the gas station, and then come to Itokan early in the morning and pretend you never left so that you could wait for me and make sure I arrived safely."

"I did do that. A lot actually. I just wanted to see you even if I didn't talk to you much. Do you remember the first birthday you spent with me?"

"I do. It was right around the time when Sannoh was having issues with Iemura and Noboru was stuck in the middle. Instead of drinking that night, you had sat in the corner deep in thought, thinking about a solution when I had interrupted you. I set a cupcake in front of you just like I did tonight. I was almost late just like tonight also. Naomi told me you didn't like celebrating your birthday much but because of everything happening, I thought it would've been nice to distract you from it even if just for a few minutes. I told you to make a wish and you did. I also wished for your wish to come true."

"It did. They all did."

"What were they?"

"I wished that Noboru would come back, and he did. I wished for nothing bad to happen to Sannoh, and we've been alright. As good as can be for a gang. The last thing I wish for, was you. I wished that one day I would come home to you and would come home to me. At that point in my life, you were the best thing that had ever happened to me, you still are. Every day I am happy that I come home to you, and you come home to me, and for a split second every hardship I ever endured had meaning; because they led me to you. When we first got together I was scared. I was scared because I had never loved someone so much before. I was scared that my position as Sannoh's leader would put you in danger. I was scared that one day you would wake up and realize that there was someone better out there for you and you would leave me. I mean, what business did a girl going to college to become a nurse have with some guy who almost didn't graduate high school and fights other gangs for a living? But everything came true. It's been years since then and I still have my brothers and I still have you, I couldn't ask for anything more."

"I love you too much, I would never be able to leave you. You can't get rid of me Cobra."

"I wouldn't dream of it. I hope that you come home to me in every lifetime."

You two shared a kiss before cuddling and falling asleep in each other's arms.

Ta-Dah! You made it to the end! Thank you so much for reading it all. I hope you liked this, it's a bit different from what I've published here so far.

I have a confession lol, I read a lot of smut but I still can't figure out how to write it myself. I don't know how you all are so good at writing it, no matter how much I try I just don't like the way I do it. I guess I am just destined to write fluff and angst for the rest of eternity.

Please don't take my work and repost it as your own on any other platforms. Writers work really hard on their stories so don't be a shitty human and take it.

Anyways..... have a good day or night wherever you are and I will see you the next time I upload ❤️

Why did you leave me?

Characters: Pavitr Prabhakar x Fem!Reader

Genre: Angst

Summary: After some months of dating Pavitr, he wants to break up with you but he wouldn’t tell you why. (Requested) Thanks for the request darling 💕

Warning: Heartbreak, sad times y’all

Jaanu = Beloved

You noticed something was off about Pavitr. The change was almost overnight. Like one day, he’s his usual cheerful and touchy self and now, he can barely look you in the eye and he can’t even hold your hand. The conversations, if there are any, are short and stifled. It’s like he’s walking on eggshells around you.

It made you feel conflicted. On one hand, you felt jaded, silted, vexed. Like every negative emotion manifested in you whenever he ignored you, whenever the 3 am 5 hour calls turned into 10-20 minutes, whenever he pulled away. It made you want to scream and shake him.

But a part of you was worried for him. Something was off with him but he wouldn’t tell you. He wouldn’t tell anyone. And it’s hurting him.

“Hey Pav,” you greeted him and smiled. It was a free period during school so you were just walking the walls.

He gave you a bright smile, “Hey, how’s your day going?”

You two engaged in casual conversation and for a minute it was like the old days but there was something off about Pavitr. His laughs weren’t the same and not once has he hugged you longer for than 30 seconds. This is the same guy that can’t go without 5 minutes holding your hand or even just idly playing with your fingers

You leaned against a wall and took a breath, “Pav, is there something wrong?”

He stopped mid sentence and looked at you with wide eyes and he froze for a moment. Then his face fell, it crumbled like sand. But for a moment, just a moment. You blinked and his smile was back in its place. But it’s manufactured and fake.

So obviously fake.

You stepped closer to him and held his face softly. You ran your fingers up and down his cheek in a soothing manner and touched your foreheads together. You spoke low and slow so he’s the only one that could hear.

“Pav, you can tell me what’s bothering you. I will not judge you for it, promise.” You told him and meant every word. You desperately hoped he knew you meant every word.

He sighed deep and long, his eyes closed, and all he could mumble were a string of sorrys. Confused by it you held him close and rested his head in the nook between your neck and head.

The next day he broke it off with you.

It was short, he came to your apartment, saying that he wanted to talk. You knew something was off when he didn’t walk right past you to chat with your mom. When he didn’t tickle your little sister. When he didn’t waltz into your room and lounge on your bed like it was his.

It was two words and he left.

“We’re done.” And his back was turned to you as he walked away.

It was simple and cruel. 4 years of laughing, smiling, kissing, hugging. Gone in less than 5 minutes. You didn’t know how to react. To cry, laugh, chase him down to throw something at him.

You wordlessly walked to the roof to your building using the railing from your bedroom window. You ignored the questioning glances of your family.

Leaning against the railing you looked at the city. It’s night time but there’s no difference in the amount of sounds or lights. It wasn’t quiet by any means but it was calming to you. People talking, motorcycles revving up, and taxis honking helped distract you from your breakup.

You still couldn't make sense of it. You knew that things were rough between you two but you thought you got to him yesterday.

He put his head on your shoulder! He was fine with you holding him! So why...why?

Um, hi…” you heard a voice and whooshed. You turned around to see that it was Spiderman. Technically Pavitr as Spiderman. But it was still him. The boy that you loved but broke your heart anyway.

You violently turned back around and yelled at him, “Go away! I don’t want to see you right now.”

You were beyond angry. You were livid, enraged, bitter. You didn’t have the words to describe what you were feeling, what you were thinking. You wanted to scream at him, to ask him why, to cry into his arms.

“Just…just let me explain,” he told you and walked to get closer but you backed away from him.

“You couldn’t have explained it as Pavitr! You had to go and get dressed up in your costume to explain why you broke my heart!” You screamed at him, with every word your voice getting louder and louder.

You both stood inches apart from one another. You could not tell what facial expression he had on, whether he was glaring at you, crying with you, or smirking.

You did not want to believe that Pavitr was enjoying your pain but you clearly didn’t know him as well as you thought you did. The boy you loved wouldn't leave you like that.

You reached to take the mask off of his face. You wanted to see him.

“Why?” Was all you asked of him.

He took the mask from your hands and sighed deeply. “I just wanted to protect you. As Spiderman, I have a lot of enemies. I just wanted to protect you, that’s all.”

You stared at him as he’s telling you this. Both of you had these kinds of concerns when he first told you. What if a villain tracked you down, used you as leverage, etc, etc.

“But we have protocols in place in case something like that happens. Pav, is there something else? Because you've been off all week.”

“No, no nothing else. I just thought that this is for the best. I just want to keep you safe from all of this,” he responded.

“Pav, I know you. I know when you are lying to me. You are lying!” You argued back at him. This was frustrating. This was so frustrating. You knew he was lying about something. You knew it. You know him.

Through your tears, you watched as Pavtir put the mask on. “Jaanu, I'm not lying to you. I love you, I always have and always will. And because I love you, I have to leave.”

“But this is not love, Pavitr! If you love me like you claim you do then, you would tell me what it is. You will not be vague about it and you will not shut me out! You will not break up with someone that you’ve been with for 4 years with no explanation and then just leave them at their doorstep. You will not!” You snapped at him.

The tears were running, staining your attempt at eyeliner, and your voice was strained from the constant yelling. And now you're just tired. This was getting nowhere.

You turn to the exit, “Okay, Pavitr. If you want to lie to my face then fine. Goodbye.”

But before you could leave, you sensed him still. Waiting. For what? You didn't know. A part of you hoped that this is where he’ll finally tell you. He’ll tell you everything. But the longer you stood there waiting, the more you realized that this was truly happening.

You marched up to him and slapped him. It was loud but not painful because as much as you hated him, you couldn't truly hurt him. But you wanted him to feel a fraction of what he put you through.

═════════ ⋆Chapter 4⋆ ═════════

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Almost every 10 minutes Simon would check up on you, make sure you were still safe, and honestly you were grateful. Hearing his voice distracted you from the pain in your leg. Even if it meant listening to his horrible jokes which you couldn't help but laugh about...you were glad he updated you whenever he could. Gladly, he never brought up about the incident, Simon was always good about knowing what to bring up and what not, especially because it kept your anxiety down from reimagining the whole event of that day.

As Simon was talking through the other end of the line "Hey, Pigeon, you still with me ?" He sounded concerned as you could hear shuffling in the background. Your stomach queasy from the thought of the kidnapping "Y-Yeah...just feeling a little sick." You could already imagine his eyes squinting and brows furrowing under his mask or exposed face hearing that "it's okay, I'm not dying Simon, it's just been a lot. Could be from the blood loss" you were making your way into the bathroom, limping slowly and cautiously, trying to avoid wincing and whimpering in pain, but you knew he could probably tell from your foot falls that it was unbearable to walk. Once you made it to the bathroom still holding the phone, you began looking in the mirror at your reflection. You were definitely more paler, not as bright, your eyes had dark circles and your hair...well it's definitely been scrambled from lack of sleep. Simon spoke in a hush voice "I'm sorry..." You could hear it was like he was blaming himself "It's not your fault...how far are you ? Well how far are you guys?" Simon had told you he wasn't coming alone, that he had, as he said, his team with him but you could tell they seemed more like family than people of ranking. "We landed we're driving right now, we'll make it there at best 30-45 minutes." Your brows raised, you knew the closest airport was at best 4-5 hours "Are you- nevermind. Don't need to know how many poor pedestrians you've run over" you gave a smirk despite the urge to hurl, just looking at yourself made you queasy.

Hearing you still make jokes made Simon, well Ghost feel relieved that you had the heart and energy he gave a soft huff to mask his laugh "Bloody well know ain't my fault if they lingering in my way." If Ghost looked up which he dared not to engage, he would see Soaps gapping mouth along with Gaz confused yet shocked face expression he could hear them mumbling in the car "The fuck....he flirting ?" From a familiar Scottish accent Gaz piped in, "I'm so confused who the person we've been calling Ghost is, obviously ain't the same person" Soap shook his head combing through his mohawk, "We've been fooled" in the corner of his eye he could see Price giving a good laugh, from the two shocking discussion about him but he didn't pay mind.

It was killing him still not there already with you. "You'll know when we're at the hotel. Don't answer the door unless you hear exactly what I told you to hear out for" the short silence was enough for Simon to guess you were probably biting on your lip and fumbling with your hair...he gives a sigh "Stop, fuckin pulling your hair, you'll get bald spots, then you'll be sulking in the shadows for months." This got a laugh out of you "If I didn't know better Simon, I'd think you were watching me, but hey, I'd just use your masks to hide it all" lets out another huff, even though he was smiling under his mask thinking about how cute you'd look in his mask before snapping back to the orders he gave, "I'm serious y/n, don't open the door to anyone I don't bloody care if it was the King of England" you giggled hearing this, as he could imagine you waving your hand dismissively "I know Simon, I got it. No opening doors, starve myself even if I smell something good and hang tight till I hear it." He grunts from your snarkiness, if you were in his unit he would've had you running laps till you dropped to the ground from exhaustion. "Good" he says sternly his fist clenching his now changed attire to look more like civilians.

They had changed taking off their gear all wearing clothes they got from a friend of Prices when they landed. "See you soon Simon, I love you..." he could tell you always felt like it was saying goodbye as he let a soft sigh, speaking softly in a hush voice "Yeah....love you too pigeon." He waited until you hit the end call button, looking at the incognito phone.

Just when his mind was still ringing with your giggle, Soap had to ruin it by nudging him as he scooted back over while they were in the van. He groaned hearing the Scottish man rest his hand on his shoulder "Aye, how's the little lass holding up ?" Ghost didn't glance up from staring at his hand where the phone sat, he grumbled softly "She says she's aight, but she sounds tired..." He looked sharply at Price "I think she's lost a lot of blood despite what she's cared to admit." Price stared back at him as he leaned over to ask Nik how far they were from meeting their destination "We're about, best, 20 minutes, and that's with speeding my friend !" He says in his accent. Soap removed his hand from his shoulder giving a more somber look "She's still hanging there at least LT, we'll get to her on time. Can't wait to meet the little lass. I'm offended you never let us meet her !" This made Ghost grumble "I would have rather she never met you" Soap placed a hand to his heart as Gaz rolled his eyes from Soaps theatrical exasperation "You wound me LT...or is it you worried the little lamb would like me more than you" as he gives a smirk wiggling his brow. This made Ghost give him a deadly stare "Johnny, you flirt with my girl, I'll have you cleaning the barracks till your dying breath " Gaz lost it, rolling out laughing as Price whistled, lighting another cigar "Shouldn't have tested him Johnny boy" Soap was reeling with horror "A-alright LT, I hear ya loud and clear sir" This gave Ghost a subtle smile despite what he said, he was somewhat glad the team will be meeting her, it almost felt like a heavy veil lifting off his mask. This made him reminiscence the day he revealed his face to you....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You both were strolling the streets one night after leaving the pub, honestly you had to escort him out because a man in there was flirting with you and Simon and the man said some words before it turned into a fist fight. Obviously, with Simon's military background he easily took down the man without much of a fight. Pinning the man down onto his face and pulling on his arm until it snapped. After clearing things up luckily with your medical background (which he hated watching you treat the man) you began making guesses what he did for a living as you both strolled down the streets. "Are you an undercover cop ?" "oooh ! I know you're a body lifter ?" "Noooo wait wait, your a yoga trainer ?" "Taekwondo instructor?" "Wrestler ???" Your ask with curiosity your eyes beaming with excitement dying to figure out what he does. Simon, was walking beside you hands in pocket as you made your guesses, each guess sounding stupider than the next as he grumbled with a huff answering each with a "No".

Just when he thought you've given up your shake your arms up above your head "For fuck sake Simon ! Give me a damn hint !" He cocks his brow at you, glancing down at your frustrated face expression, he smirked a bit seeing how cute you were angry, he could imagine as a cartoon character with the smoke blowing out of your ears and face boiling red for a dramatic effect. He looked ahead tho, grunting "Don't bloody tie me to some wrestler, I ain't into that bunch of rubbish fights" You peeked at his face trying to read him as you both happen to be crossing a bridge as you stopped looking at the stream below.

Simon stopped to look at you, as his eyes casted at your body against the moonlight, your hair flowing, almost like in slow motion from a movie but you pushed it away briskly. You were breathtakingly beautiful to him. You look at him "Simon, we've gone on dates now for what couple months now ? When are you going to open up to me ?" You bite your lip, not the coy way though, almost like you're biting your lip to make your tears not come down. "I want to know you better...I want..." You sigh softly looking away "Nevermind" but Simon says in a deep soft voice "No, tell what's on your mind Pigeon." You look back at him surprised, blushing at the pet name as you take a deep breath, facing him fully. "I want to be that someone for you Simon. I want to be the person who remembers every detail about you. I want to be someone you trust and open up to when things get hard and you need someone. " if you thought your cheeks were red, under Simon's mask he was brighter. "Simon, I want all of you. Your darkness and light. Whether you're a friendly ghost or not. I want to know you for Simon and Ghost." You take a breath, you didnt realize how quick you were talking as you were catching your breath now. There was silence between you two. Your words still in the air as he looked into your eyes to find any lie behind them.

You were trembling, almost scared you said something wrong "S-Say something.... because I don't want to be disappointed or hurt if you-" in that second, Simon had removed his whole mask. Truly removed it, not partial, not mouth mask, truly off. If you thought your mouth was wide, it was wide enough to place an apple in your mouth. Simon strided up to you looking down at you, as you still were admiring his handsome features as he spoke softly, lifting your chin "You talk too much Pigeon" he smirks at your now processing face, scrunches up as you start coming to your senses "Y-Yeah well..." He frowns at you "Shut up..." He crashes his lips down onto yours shushing you from making your comeback as you both held each other. It was the moment you two agreed to never hold secrets, least as much as Simon could tell you and when you officially marked the day you were dating.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was hard to believe it was 3 years ago Simon thought, felt like yesterday you were just someone he saw at the airport after a mission and you were a clueless American trying to figure out where to go from there. Snapping back to the moment, Nik speaks out loudly "We're 5 minutes away ! I'm going to park in this alley to keep our distance ya ?" This perked up Ghost, he couldn't believe you were so close yet so far to reach. Everyone seemed to be on the edge of their seats ready to take action as Price put out his cigar. "Alright you lot, remember we're around civilians, keep your weapons hot yet hidden. Don't need to get too much attention. If you come across any hostiles, eliminate quietly don't want to cause them to get more backup." Everyone nodded their heads as Gaz spoke "So what's the plan Captain?" Price looked sharply at Ghost as Ghost looked at him "Ghost, Soap, you two make your way into the hotel. Get y/n out safely through the back." Ghost nodded his head as Soap responded "Aye" Gaz you take the back way, where they'll exit. Keep it clear. I'll watch from the building across from this hotel. I'll be the sniper. I'll be your eyes. Nik will watch the entry if anyone suspicious goes in." Price looked around at each ones face before landing back at Ghosts "Alright. Let's go get the little lamb" a nickname the 141 started calling you, as Ghost didn't care, he just wanted to get to you.

Soap and Ghost walked casually shoulder to shoulder, microphones attached to their hoodie, hands in pocket as they made their way to the alley where it takes you the back entry way to the hotel. Their eyes scanned their surroundings as they made their way closer to the alley, Ghost caught at the little coffee shop some men pretending to read newspapers as he mumbles softly "Two men, 4 o' clock, eyeing building" Soap side glances seeing them as he says lowly "Aye...I see em LT, you think they onto us yet?" Ghost kept his eyes locked onto the hotel "Let's hope not Johnny...Price you copy?" Took a few seconds before Price responded "Yeah, I heard ya Ghost. I'll keep me eyes on them. You're clear right now. Gaz will follow behind exactly 5 minutes after, once you've entered and keep it clear. " As they got closer to the alley they make a casual sharp left blending into the shadows as they make their way to the door "Yeah, we copy, tell your guy to watch the cameras." Soap gets to the door first opening looking behind Ghost as his eyes narrow a bit, no words needed to be spoken, someone had their eyes on them. Continuing their way, they enter now in front of a spiral of stairs. They both had their hands where their weapons were expecting the men to follow behind to corner them and start a shoot out. Soap watched Ghosts back while he kept moving, Soap checking behind him every minute. As they were making it around to the 3rd level, they heard the door open.

They froze looking at each other intently. They were followed. Hearing the ascending foot step, Ghost focused intently on hearing the footsteps calculating how many they were going to be dealing with. Silently he lifted his fingers saying the total "7" Soap seemed to have calculated the same amount as he gave a slow nod. Pulling out guns would alert others of their presence. So they decided to handle this with a more, physical touch. They were leaning against the railing acting like they were just chilling, as the men appeared, all shifting for a moment uncertain, as they began to walk by them, in that split second Ghost and Soap locked eyes nodding as they had their blades out and fists up. The men were ready for this as well as they put up a hard fight. 3 went after Soap while Ghost took on 4. Soap worked quickly, clashing the first one into the second before working on stabbing the third in the chest. Flipping his blade he readied himself for the third man who got up faster lunging at him to punch, Soap kneed him in the stomach, however not expecting him to be also holding a knife as he grazed his shoulder, he didn't stop though striking down onto the man's back then stabbing at the neck. Than seeing the final guy rush towards him a knife went embedded into his head. Soap looked to his left seeing Ghost had already finished his 4. Soap pushed the limp body "Bloody hell LT, how the fuck you finish off 4?!" Ghost shrugged "Another time Sargent. You still fight able?" Soap touched his wound nodding his head "Damn right, could take on an army LT" Ghost grunted with approval as he rushed up the remainder of the two flights.

He never ran so fast before you were so close, he could almost smell your scent finally arriving up E 17 he froze knocking on the door almost Morse code. He waited for you to answer now...few seconds turned to a minute, than another, and another. He attempted a second time thinking maybe you were asleep, but again nothing. Soap who was watching his back looked up at him almost concerned "LT..." Ghost didn't want to hear it. He started kicking at the door with all his power until it gave in. He literally broke the door off it's hinges as he rushed in, seeing the pool of blood on the bed, eyes frantic "Y/n !" He noticed the bathroom light on, running in, as he stopped dead in his tracks, seeing your almost, lifeless body in the bath tub. You were pale, he made his way to you quickly lifting your head checking your pulse as you mumble softly "Y-You came..." Ghost heart almost felt like it wasn't beating. Seeing you losing so much blood and your normal glow faded, he didn't wait a second. Scooping you into his arms holding you close to his chest, he shouted at Soap to hurry and grab a blanket, when Soap laid his eyes on you, he wrapped you with the blanket he found saying in a soft voice "LT, she's -" Ghost was blazing with fury as he narrowed his eyes at him "Let's move Sargent !" He didn't wait up for Soap, running down the flight of stairs, skipping some steps with ease. Hurriedly making to the door, he heard Soap radio "We're coming out....it's not looking good. We need to get to base ASAP ! Bring the van Nik !" Everyone responded through except Ghost his hold on you was tight yet gentle. Gaz opened the door so he didn't, his eyes showing immediate concern but Ghost wasn't having it. The sound of Niks van screech to a halt, Gaz and Soap opened the vans doors letting Ghost in, Price jumping into the passenger, as he glanced back seeing you, his eyes widen, everyone could see it. It looked like they were too late. Price yelled for Nik to drive, flooring it, as Price began calling Laswell telling her to give them a clearance to run through traffic and lights. With which was approved. You were in his lap, you could feel and smell the familiarity of him, your eyes barely staying up as you saw he was fearful, you could see where his mouth was under the balaclava, moving but you weren't registering if words were being spoken, you were only able to catch three words. "-Hang on y/n!"

[my-autism-adhd-blog]

Hi so I’m an incoming freshman I have autism and ADHD I was wondering do you have any tips for high school specifically for people with autism and ADHD like me? Thank you for your time!!

Hi there,

It’s been out of school since 2015, so I’m rusty with tips. However I did find one article listing 12 tips that might help:

1. You don’t need ONE study space.

A well-stocked desk in a quiet place at home is key, but sometimes you need variety. Coffee shops, libraries, parks, or even just moving to the kitchen table will give you a change of scenery which can prompt your brain to retain information better.

2. Track more than HW in your school planner.

Keeping a calendar helps you plan ahead—but you’ve got more going on than just homework assignments! Make sure you’re marking your extracurricular, work, and social commitments, too. (Tests, band practice, away games, SAT dates, half-days and holidays are just a few examples of reminders for your planner.)

3. Start small.

If you’ve got a big assignment looming, like a research paper, stay motivated by completing a piece of the project every few days. Write one paragraph each night. Or, do 5 algebra problems from your problem set at a time, and then take a break.

4. School supplies (alone) don’t make you organized.

Come up with a system and keep to it. Do you keep one big binder for all your classes with color-coded tabs? Or do you prefer to keep separate notebooks and a folder for handouts? Keep the system simple—if it’s too fancy or complicated, you are less likely to keep it up everyday.

5. Get into a routine.

When will you make the time to do your homework every day? Find the time of day that works best for you (this can change day-to-day, depending on your schedule!), and make a plan to hit the books.

6. Learn how to create a distraction-free zone.

A study on workplace distractions found that it takes workers an average of 25 minutes to return to what they were working on pre-interruption. Try turning off your phone notifications or blocking Twitter (temporarily) on your computer so you can concentrate on the homework tasks at hand.

7. Get real.

When you’re looking at the homework you have to get done tonight, be realistic about how long things actually take. Gauging that reading a history chapter will take an hour and writing a response will take another 30 minutes will help you plan how you spend your time.

8. Use class time wisely.

Is your teacher finished lecturing, but you still have 10 minutes of class left? Get a jump on your chemistry homework while it’s still fresh in your mind. Or use the time to ask your teacher about concepts that were fuzzy the first time.

9. Look over your notes each night to make sure you've got it.

Fill in details, edit the parts that don’t make sense, and star or highlight the bits of information that you know are most important. Interacting with your notes will help you remember them. You can also use Homework Help to get your questions answered 24/7.

10. Study a little every day.

Cramming Spanish vocabulary for a quiz might work in the short-term, but when comes time to study for midterms, you’ll be back at square 1. You might remember the vocab list long enough to ace the quiz, but reviewing the terms later will help you store them for the long haul.

11. Don’t let a bad grade keep you down.

A rough start to the semester doesn’t have to sink your GPA. Take proactive steps by checking your grades regularly online and getting a tutor if you need one.

12. Make a friend in every class.

Find a few people you can contact from each of your classes if you have a homework question or had to miss class (and do the same for them!).  Then when it comes time to study for exams, you'll already have a study group.

The article will be below:

I hope this helps. Thank you for the inbox. I hope you have a wonderful day/night. ♥️

[that-one-weird-kid-from-school]

Oh me oh my, I really fucking hate time!

Yeah, I know, I have been complaining a lot about time recently, but even if I made 3 2-mile long posts a week for 5 months and 11 days straight about how much I despise time, that would only show a third of my pure hatred for time.

Every day I go to sleep; and every time I go to sleep, I never expect to wake up tomorrow, I never expect tomorrow to come, yet every time I do; every day when I am thrust into reality, it never feels right, it always feels like this shouldn't be happening, but I just gotta deal with that and wait until I fall back asleep only to eventually wake up again, wake up tomorrow.

Up until soon, I did not think of anything when I went to sleep, I wasn't expecting tomorrow, blissfully not thinking about time, but I now think about time, and the more that I think about time, the more I despise it; so recently, when I go to sleep, the only thing that I think about is how much I wished and begged for tomorrow not to come, to not wake up tomorrow.

But tomorrow always comes.

But today, I had a plan to outsmart time: if I willingly chose to sleep all day, then there wouldn't have been no tomorrow, because tomorrow never came, because I slept through all of tomorrow.

So that is what I tried to do, when I felt myself waking up, I chose to not open my eyes, I stayed in sleep mode, I stayed in my blissful state of mind where there is no time for so long; but eventually, I have been woken up at 1:30 PM, apparently, the package that I ordered has arrived; the plan has to go on hold, I need my beads.

And so, I went outside to get my package; on the way there, I got new string, and also, I saw an amazing notebook, it worked perfect for my plan; also, that was a fine notebook, and I know what I'm saying, I have seen my fare share of notebooks, I have a whole library of notebooks, that notebook was very thick, but sadly, it was a yearly notebook, so I need to wait for the next year to come.

That journey took a lot out of me, I did not drink any alcohol but, every minute that passed, I felt less and less sober, my brain is fogging up every moment that I don't watch piercing fail reaction videos; in the end, I went home half the man I used to be, but at least I got my beads; but when I checked the time, I saw that it was 5 PM, how the fuck did that happen, I went outside immediately after I woke up; the crazier part still was when I got distracted for about 10-30 minutes, it suddenly got to 9 PM, like, no fucking time has passed and now it's dark!

I swear, time really wants me to fucking die.

But, I can hear you from the other side of the screen, with your little nose, saying something like, "I get it, man. Time is an ever-present force that affects us equally. No matter how much we run away from it, we can never escape, time always catches up. And even if we die, time will still keep going; if the entire human race dies one day, time will still exist forever more. We are nothing but ants trying to lie in such an immovable reality called time." Shut the fuck up; you don't know what we're saying, you bitch-ass; go get some real problems and then talk to me.

Or you might be saying something like "what's your deal with time, dude? i get how it feels when you lose track of time and then it flies by. but when you pay attention to it, it is pretty reliable. i don't see why you hate time so much" To that I say: good for you, go sit in the corner right there and be ignorantly blissful and don't bother me; I don't want to explain to you the horrors that I experience every day, but in short, I have a fucked up sense of time, 5 hours ago genuinely feel like yesterday; and trying to make a reason to that is a fucking nightmare.

It really seems like time wants me to die earlier than I would usually do, but I won't do it yet, I have a job to do; if I hear another word come out of your goddam mouth, I swear to fucking god, I'm gonna punch your chest so hard that it breaks your internalized clock; we'll see who's laughing now when that constant ticking and tacking drives you so mad that it leads you into doing desperate actions!

I swear, this time thing is going to be the death of me...

[idyllic-idioms]

eating plantbased on a budget

my partner and i alternate weeks on who’s responsible for cooking dinner. this week is my turn, and here’s my list. the list is only for 5 days because we’ve got other plans this weekend.

total cost of 5 days of dinners for 2 people: €24.72

full breakdown, my (personal!!) effort rating per meal and notes after the cut. the effort is rated on a 5-star scale, where zero stars is oven pizza or ordering in, ⭐️⭐️⭐️ is the highest i’m willing to go on an average week, and ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ is a special occasion with guests to impress.

monday: oven-roasted carrots and potatoes and kidneybeans with lemon. effort: ⭐️, the veggies were pre-skinned and i roasted them whole. about 10 mins of prep time total, mainly spent freaking out over what seasonings to use, and 30 mins of oven time. cost: €2.49

tuesday: boiled cauliflower, oven-roasted potatoes, schnitzel (AH terra). effort: ⭐️⭐️, the mini potatoes were pre-skinned and seasoned but the cauliflower was whole and needed to be cut. cost: €4.14

wednesday: rice and tofu stir fry. effort: ⭐️, which is 100% due to the convenience of a rice cooker, tofu press, and storebought sweet & sour sauce. the stir fry veggies were pre-sliced and that makes it lower effort but also adds up to the cost: €6.19

thursday: ravioli with broccoli and red pesto and zucchini and onion, bonus chicken nuggets (AH terra). effort: ⭐️⭐️⭐️, the pesto and ravioli were storebought but the vegetables needed to be cut. i did get distracted mid cooking and left the onion on the stove to fruit accidentally which i normally dont have the patience for lmao. cost: €5.66

friday: gnocchi with zucchini and red pesto and edamame. effort: ⭐️⭐️ i ran out of onions or this would be three stars again. cost: €4.24

notes: 1️⃣ i added €2 to the total at the top for any seasonings on monday + tuesday, and sunflower oil on all days, which is a rough estimate. the sweet & sour stir fry and red pesto sauces are factored into the cost per day.

2️⃣ this list is for 2 people because realistically, the costs would be higher per serving if i only cooked for myself. i like convenience and a lot of things i buy come packaged to serve 2 people. i would be buying more expensive items or throwing more food out if i were alone. batch cooking and eating leftovers is a perfect solution for singles, but on a low-spoons week like this it won’t happen for me. i don’t want to write €12.36 per person at the top because that would be disingenuous.

3️⃣ what about breakfast, lunch, and snacks??? mate i’m dutch. breakfast and lunch is whatever i can whip up in under 5 minutes, which is usually oatmeal (~ €0.50) or a sandwich (~ €0.75). calculating costs for that would require measuring portion sizes every meal and i already have trouble eating because of depression. the above list was written with my checkout receipts from the past week in under 15 minutes. this is not a food log or weight loss related, just a list of costs for the most expensive meal per day.

4️⃣ my meal plan philosophy is to check what’s on sale that week and let that guide me. the most expensive single purchase this week were the pre-sliced veggies in the stir fry on wednesday for €3 because they were full price. my local grocery store, albert heijn, gives personalized discounts on their budget vegan brand Terra if you allow them to track your purchases and the algorithm can tell you’re vegan.

conclusion: i like low effort meals. i like cheap meals. i also like tasty meals. i’ve been having trouble eating and meh food is better than no food, though. monday was the cheapest day but did not taste that great. wednesday was the most expensive day but also the most delicious day AND another low effort day. this is a pretty average work week for me: there is no splurging on ordering in, sure, but also no dirt-cheap-per-serving batch cooking of curries or soups to throw the total off. 30 days like this would feed 2 people for €145.62, only counting dinners.

Day 5: Saturday January 4th, 2025 [Tokyo]

Breakfast: Konbini coffee & egg sando

Lunch: Our first proper ramen of the trip!

Dinner: Sirloin ‘gyukatsu’ meal set

Steps: 14,788

We had a slower start today and left the hotel at 11:30am. We had planned to visit a viral restaurant, Menchirashi, who were famous for their Udon Carbonara but I was dismayed to find out that they were closed for New Year for the duration of our stay in Tokyo. Morgan googled another place that did a similar dish and we decided to check it out.

We grabbed brekky from the Konbini and got the train into Shinjuku. We walked for 15 minutes through a pretty dense part of the city with big roads and high-rise buildings. The restaurant was down an alley and already had a queue. Morgan signed us up for the digital queue and it says the approximate wait time was 240 minutes. No thank you! We instead walked back towards the touristy side of Shinjuku to see the giant Godzilla and chose a ramen spot with a Godzilla view for lunch instead. The ramen was fine - about as good as we’ve had in Melbourne. They forgot Morgan’s order though and we got two complimentary drinks for the bother.

After lunch we decided to visit a shrine down the road. We got promptly distracted by an arcade next door and spent half an hour playing claw machines (Morgan won me a Kirby keyring) and getting ridiculous anime photo booth photos. It was confusing as hell to get the photos with Japanese instructions, but the results were hilarious. When we arrived at the shine there was a queue to pay your respects and we didn’t want to linger so we didn’t stay long. We were going to get another goshuin, but didn’t want the novelty to wear off so decided to get one in each major city instead. We then went to check out a mini suburb called ‘Golden Gai’ that Morgan’s mate had recommended. It’s full of tiny bars and Izakayas we decided to check it out one evening before we leave for Disney.

We got the train to Shibuya as we had a sunset booking at Shibuya Sky - our third sky-high tourist attraction in 3 days. I had booked the primo time slot a month prior to ensure we didn’t miss out… or so I thought. When I pulled up the tickets they said 2:20pm not 4:20pm! IDIOT! We took them to the service desk to ask if we could still go up and the guy looked at me like an idiot. He said “why did you come late?” And my only reply was “because I am an idiot”. He was able to transfer the tickets and we headed up to the viewing platform. Phew!

Shibuya Sky rooftop was absolutely stunning. We had perfect weather and a glorious sunset to photograph. We lined up for the ‘edge’ photo and had to wait about 30 minutes for our turn. Fortunately the sun had not completely set yet and we got some cute photos. We were nothing compared to all the Instagram Japanese girls there though - their Insta boyfriends were working overtime! Once we were done with the outdoor platform, we went downstairs to the bar and had a glass of prosecco and watched the city below. It was lovely to sit still for a moment and enjoy where we were. While there we scoped out where to go for dinner and decided to check out the infamous ‘Shibuya Scramble’ pedestrian crossing. Morgan also read up on the famous dog ‘Hachiko’ who had his own gift shop. He is revered in the area for being a real good boy. Very loyal to his owner, he used to accompany him to the city each day and then wait for him at Shibuya Station every evening. One day his owner died at work but the dog still came to the station every day until he too, died. My heart! There is a bronze statue of him outside the station and people had left blessings underneath it and tourists were queued to get a photo with him. What a good dog!

The Scramble was bananas but very efficient. We crossed through to walk up the hill to dinner at Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu. I had seen this place online and wanted to try it as long as the queue wasn’t too long. We only had to wait about 10 minutes before being welcomed in by lovely staff. We both ordered a beer and sirloin beef set. The meal came with miso soup, steamed rice, cabbage, a ‘onsen egg’ and 4 dipping sauces for our ‘katsugyu’ - sliced and crumbed beef that you sear yourself on a mini grill that looks like an oil burner. The meal was delicious and Morgan delighted in trying all of the different sauces. I was a big fan of dipping the meat in wasabi, then the egg and having it with the rice and cabbage. Quite the mouthful. Our meal cost ¥8500 - our most expensive yet, but very worth it.

We were nearly ready to go home but as it was Saturday night, Morgan wanted to experience the nightlife in Shibuya. We’d struggled to find a stand alone ‘bar’ -everything seemed to be a bar/restaurant and required patrons to order at least one appetizer and drink per person which we didn’t want. After some googling, Morgan found an underground cocktail bar called ‘Autumn’ that was lovely and we had the whole venue to ourselves. I had 2 cocktails and Morgi had a cocktail and a Japanese whisky. The staff were lovely, but literally stood still and pretended to clean when they weren’t making our drinks. They didn’t ’go out the back’ or even speak to each other for the duration of our visit. We felt a bit uncomfortable and were ready to go home so left just after 8.30pm.

On the walk back to the station we walked past a multi-storey shoe store (are there any single storey buildings in this city!?) and asked if I wanted to go in. I’d been unsuccessful in my attempts to purchase some new sneakers due to my large Aussie feet and was a bit embarrassed but I’d only brought one pair of sneakers with me and they kept squeaking in quiet areas and I wanted a second pair. I decided to go in and find a men’s/unisex pair that I liked and get Morgan to buy them. The shop assistant inside ended up being lovely and helped me convert the sizes to a female equivalent and I scored a cream pair of Adidas sneakers just as the store was closing. Success! I was so pleased.

We got a photo of the Hachiko dog statue before getting on the train and heading home with coffee and a sweet treat from the Konbini. Today was not my favourite day, but it definitely picked up as we plodded through. It’s nuts that we’ve been here for 4 days already.

Teach me how to Love- pt 2

Hi all!! Hope you’re all doing well!

Here’s the second part to the JW x reader fic I’ve been working on!

Somehow you finally managed to fall asleep despite not being able to get your mind off of Jungwon, you actually slept fairly well. You don’t normally sleep more than 2-3 hours at a time. It had always been this way for you. While you manage to keep your anxiety at bay most of the time you still struggle to quiet your mind enough to sleep. When you did wake up it was already 11. You never slept this late, good thing it was a Saturday and you didn’t have any prior commitments to worry about. Which means that you can do whatever you want, in this case that was laying in bed scrolling through your phone.

After you got tired of aimlessly scrolling you decided to check your messages. You noticed you had a couple from earlier in the day but weren’t in a hurry to get back to anyone figuring that it was just your roommate letting you know she wouldn’t be home until later. What you didn’t expect was to have a message from a certain boy you had met the night before. The time stamp shows the message was sent 3 hours prior. Oh god he was going to think you were ignoring him. You hadn’t even given him sending a message first thing in the morning a thought whatsoever. His message was so sweet. It was just a simple “Good Morning Pretty❤️”. You verbally squealed thanking god your roommate wasn’t there to witness this. How do you respond to this, it’s now 1:00 and he sent that at 10 am. Not sure what exactly to say you just send a simple “Hey :)”. Once you hit send you smack yourself at how stupid you sounded. He says Good Morning Pretty and all you can manage to say back is Hey. God you were so lame.

As 5 minutes turned into 10 and then into 20 you were sure you had made it weird with your mediocre reply. You decided to just leave your phone on the charger and go about your day like normal. That worked for about 10 minutes. You were trying to figure out what to wear when you heard your phone vibrate. Trying to play it cool you quickly picked up your phone to check who it was. Although deep down you knew who it was. Upon unlocking your phone you see that Jungwon responded with “How are you doing today? I am so sorry for not answering sooner, my roommate was freaking out about his midterms and insisted I spend my morning off helping him study. Anyways, that is probably more info than you wanted lol”. You let out a breath you did not know you were holding. He didn’t need to be apologizing especially since you had just met he definitely doesn’t owe you anything. But you couldn’t lie you found his rambling quite cute. Let’s be honest, at this point you found everything he did cute. You took a few minutes to gather your thoughts and to think about how you wanted to respond. You ultimately decide to play it cool. So you sent him back “You do not need to apologize! I have a crazy roommate too so I can definitely relate. I am doing good, just enjoying my Saturday. How are you? Have any plans for the day?”. Within 30 seconds of you hitting send you saw a little bubble pop up indicating that he was typing. Every second you spent waiting for him to reply felt like minutes coming off of your life. You’d never reacted like this when talking to boys before. But when was the last time you had spoken to a boy for longer than 15 minutes. You truly had no idea. The thought quickly left your head because he had replied to you. “Glad you can relate to the crazy roommate sentiment lol. I love my roommate he’s like a brother to me but he does drive me crazy sometimes! I’m glad to hear you’re doing well! I was worried I monopolized too much of your time last night, I feel bad, you probably wanted to speak to your friends instead of a stranger for the whole night”. Oh if he only knew how much you were grateful for a distraction from everyone. For weeks everyone in your friend group was treating you like a child. You couldn’t stand it anymore. You were so grateful to have friends that cared this much but you were truly okay. Leaving your job wasn’t something that was planned but the series of events that unfolded prior to quitting finally boiled over. You had been miserable at that job. In fact, you never wanted it in the first place. In short, you were glad to finally be rid of it. You were putting way too much pressure on yourself to come off a certain way to Jungwon. If he really wanted to be your friend and get to know you then you owed it to him and to yourself to show him who you are. Screw it, you thought, don’t try so hard just be yourself. So you said “No!! Don’t feel bad, I really enjoyed talking to you last night. If you knew what I have gone through in the last couple of weeks you’d be glad for a distraction too. Plus, we aren’t strangers anymore we’re friends…”. He immediately hit back with “Oh, I’m a distraction huh ;)”

You: A welcome one :)

JW: Oh, well in that case I feel flattered.

You: Oh you definitely should

You: It isn’t often I bestow that honor on someone.

JW: Well, I feel very honored then.

JW: Are you doing anything tonight?

You: Not a thing. My roommate won’t be home until sometime next week so I was probably going to watch a movie and then if I’m feeling freaky I may order takeout

JW: What movie were you going to watch??

You: I was thinking maybe Jurassic Park. My roommate doesn’t like the movies so I don’t get to watch them very often

JW: wait seriously? I love those movies. You aren’t going to believe me but I was literally just talking about watching it the other day… crazy

You had quite a rapport going with him and based on the way he had been replying he seemed to be enjoying it too. However, what you weren’t sure about was if he was trying to get an invitation over to your place for the evening. You definitely wanted to see him again and you kind of got the feeling he felt the same. But would you be coming off too strong for asking him over so soon when you just saw him the night before? You decided to throw caution to the wind and just let whatever happens, happen

You: Well, if you aren’t doing anything you are more than welcome to come over…I can’t promise it will be fun but the offer is open

JW: I would hate to intrude on your evening alone.

JW: But, if you’re serious then I’d love to.

You: Of course I’m serious. It would be nice to have some company for once.

JW: I’d be glad to keep you company :) what time should I come over?

You: hmm give me an hour to get ready and tidy up

JW: Okay pretty, see you in an hour

You: See you soon ;)

Once you came down from cloud nine you realized you really didn’t have much time to pull yourself together and to clean up. Once you got showered and dressed you speedily picked up the apartment. You thankfully had a few minutes to relax before Jungwon arrived. He arrived right on time, how did he manage to be so punctual. You took a deep breath and opened the door. He looked even more beautiful in the light of day. Time seems to move in a blur once you usher him in. He insists on buying dinner since he’s the one intruding on your evening alone. You quickly reassure him that you invited him and he wasn’t intruding on anything.

Once you start the movie there’s a comfortable silence that falls over you two. However, even at 25 the first movie still scared you. You couldn’t help it, every time the t-Rex comes on the screen some small part of you gets terrified. Jungwon must’ve sensed you tensing up. No matter how hard you tried to hide it, your body gave you up. You’re not sure if this is the reason you feel Jungwon inch closer to you. His movements were so subtle that at first you didn’t even register what he was doing. The second time he did it you knew you weren’t imagining it. You sat there frozen, it isn’t that you hated the idea of him moving closer to you. If anything your brain was screaming for him to move even closer than that. In fact, you were more certain now than you were before that you really liked him. You had this strange feeling when you met him that you could fall fast and hard for him. You were exactly right because here you were.

Nothing progressed from there, both of you seemingly comfortable in each other’s presence with no added pressure to keep a conversation. Once the movie ended you thought he’d probably want to leave especially because it was getting late. Instead what happened was him asking if you were up for another movie. You said yes without hesitation. Except, neither of you could agree on what to watch so you turned the tv on and let it play in the background. Jungwon turned to you and smiled, you felt your stomach fill with butterflies. You two spent the next few hours just talking. You must’ve talked about anything and everything. In fact, in the midst of your many conversations jungwon marveled at how easy you were to talk with. You simply nodded your head. You really didn’t know what to say. He noticed that and apologized, thinking he had made it awkward. You told him he didn’t, you truly meant it. The mood had shifted once again, the show playing on the tv grabbing your attention for a second. You felt him move as close to you as he could get away with for the moment. He lingered for a second too long. He hesitated slightly before you felt him lean in to your ear and ask shyly if he could hold your hand. All you could do was nod. You turned to look at him, smiling to show him that you were okay with it. The two of you just sat there for a few minutes. Jungwon was the one to break the silence. Your mind was running at 100 miles an hour, unsure of what to think about him holding your hand. As crazy as it sounds at 25 you’d never held hands with a boy. Hell you’d never even kissed a boy. So as far as what to do and how to do it you were so out of your element. You did know that being here with him holding his hand made you feel like a teenager again. You could never remember a time when you felt so giddy over such a small gesture. Jungwon looked at you and smiled. He took a second to gather his thoughts, but when he spoke he said “I don’t want you think this is why I came over tonight. I mean, I was hoping maybe it wasn’t just me feeling this way but I worried you’d think it was too soon especially since we just met yesterday. It’s never felt this easy for me. I mean I genuinely had no idea who you were until last night. But as soon as I walked into the room and saw you I felt like I needed to speak to you. Sorry does that sound cliche”? Now he was rambling. You squeezed his hand to let him know you wanted his attention. He stopped talking and looked at you with a shy smile on his face. Taking a deep breath you say “I’m actually really glad to hear you say that. I’ve felt like I was going crazy since last night worrying about if I was overthinking everything. Don’t worry, I do feel the same as you. I can’t quite explain what it is I’m feeling but I do know I’m feeling something. Also you don’t need to apologize for holding my hand, I really like it”.

After another hour or so had passed you both decide to part ways for the evening. You understand why he had to go because it was after midnight but you both drug your feet a little not wanting to be apart just yet. As he was getting ready to leave he hesitated as he reached the front door. Before you could register what he was doing he leaned in to you. You were slightly worried he was going to kiss you but instead he slowly grabbed your hands to hold them and then moved in for a hug. This gesture felt oddly intimate for a hug. You didn’t normally like hugs in fact you spent a lot of time trying to avoid being hugged at any family or social gatherings. But this felt different. It felt right. You felt all of your worries and concerns melt right off of you as soon as he held you in his arms. His embrace was warm and had a dizzying intoxicating feeling wash over you. He could’ve stood there for hours holding you and you wouldn’t complain a bit. Eventually, he did leave. Once he left you were so happy that you were nowhere near ready for bed. You decided to get in your pajamas and watch tv while you scroll through your phone. At this point it had been maybe 15 minutes since Jungwon had left. You didn’t think you’d hear from him until tomorrow or atleast over the next few days but here he was messaging you after having only been apart for mere minutes.

JW: Okay so hypothetically what if I said I missed you…

JW: I’m not saying I do, I’m just asking for future reference

JW: ……

JW: Okay fine you got me. I miss you…

You: well hypothetically if you did miss me, I’d suppose it would be okay for me to also say I miss you.

You: I’m not saying I do… I’m just curious for the future ya know?

You: Okay I give up, I miss you too.

JW: glad we’re on the same page ;)

JW: But seriously, thank you for tonight! I really enjoyed getting to know you more and just talking. I also enjoyed the part where you let me hold your hand…

You: Babe don’t even worry about it. It was my pleasure and I hope you know I liked the part where you held my hand too.

JW: Oh so I’m babe now?

JW: I’ve taken it under consideration and I like it

Wait you thought to yourself, when did you slip babe in there. You were used to calling your friends that and without realizing it you slipped it into your message to Jungwon.

You: oh god I’m sorry I shouldn’t have called you that. Now I’ve made it weird lol

JW: why are you apologizing? I liked it… like a lot.

You: oh? Well in that case, it was completely intentional.

JW: oh yeah?

You: …yes

JW: well good

JW: I know it’s late and I just saw you but I really wanted to keep talking

JW: sorry if it’s overwhelming

You: no I completely understand. plus, I wanted to talk to you more too I was just too scared to text you so soon after you left. I didn’t want to come across as pushy

JW: oh please, if anyone is being pushy it’s me.

JW: I know we have a long way to go in terms of getting to know each other but I really feel like I’ve known you for years.

JW: I need you to know, I really do like you…

You: What’s crazy is I feel the exact same way. I don’t quite know what you see in me but I’m glad to have met you and excited to see where this leads us.

JW: trust me I see a lot in you.

JW: anyways, I just wanted to talk to you before I went to bed :)

You: you keep talking to me this way and I’ll start to think you like me.

JW: well good because I do.

You: ditto

You: When do I get to see you again

JW: I was just about to ask you the same.

JW: Are you free for breakfast?

You: I suppose I could clear my schedule up

JW: I’d be forever in your debt.

You: Okay! Give me a call in the morning when you are up and ready to go…

You: I should probably let you go… I need my beauty sleep anyways if I want to look even a little presentable in the morning :)

JW: I’ll leave you to your sleep then princess xx Goodnight 💤

You: goodnight…. babe🥺💤
