#i say all this because i remember at least felix the cat and freaking LITTLE LULU getting anime adaptations

[dulciedeleche]

I think it’d be funny if Pizza Tower not only got an actual cartoon, but also an anime adaptation that stays true to the style and wackiness, but you can still clearly tell it’s an anime. It’s even originally in Japanese but gets an English dub on top of that

[be-side-my-self]

First watch of Season 4 of Only Murders In The Building

Rewatch of ONLY Murders In The Building to prepare for season 4:

<Part I> // <Part II> // <Part III> // <Part IIII> // <Part V> // <Part VI> // <Part VII> // <Part VIII>

This is no rewatch but my new posts can also easily be blocked because I'll continue to use #OMITBRewatch as a tag. I'll also tag #OMITBS4. While quoting, I use M, O, C for the main characters.

S4 E1

I'm excited... who killed Sazz?

Those old home movies are adorable. And it shows again, how people are still recognizable even decades later.

... how sad that they didn't even go looking for Sazz?

In the intro... Howard is walking a dog? Not his cat?

What the fuck?! They did not find Sazz... :(

Again, What the fuck??

At least Charles is worried...

Funny that Mabel is now crashing at Olivers place when he crashed at her place before.

O: "Donna and Cliff have pulled their financing! For 'bail' and 'defense attorneys', some stupid shit like that!!"

Not stupid to them!

Oliver is so dramatic.

C: "Hey, I'm sorry about all this but it could be worse. All morning, I have been hearing this whistling sound. I might have a brain tumor" O: "Look, don't try to cheer me up."

Howard got a puppy! Why did he come to Charles apartment?

Awww Gravy is cute. A goldie!

Okay... did Gravy used to work as a cadaver dog?

Lmao...

Oh my god! The corpse is not there anymore but Gravy did smell the blood Mabel smelled.

That really is a bit of a bizarre scene of New York... and if it is a Godzilla movie why is it important that the one grandpa needs help with his microwave? ... is it a parody movie?

Bev Melon...

Bev is a freak.

The Brothers... yeah I can see how that is confusing.

Trina and Tawny Brothers

They don't look Identical. And... they are kind of weird.

Bev: "Oliver who we want to strangle and cuddle at the same time. And Charles, everyone's un-fun uncle with his grouchy, little turtle face. And Mabel, with your traumatized, homeless, jobless, mumbling millennial charm stuck between these two old dudes."

I think that would be the point when I jam on the breaks. Jeebus fuck, Bev.

Bev: "Oh, we don't need to do numbers. You can just have your lawyers call business affairs."

Fucking hell, Bev.

... they don't have lawyers... I assume. Mabel certainly has none.

What the fuck?

"Howdy!"

Sidney...

C: "Well, let's get into this gas guzzler"

When they are in the limo and stand up, I can't help but remember the Bob's Burgers episode in which they are told they can't do it because so many people lost their heads because of the movie "Big" with "Thomas Hanks". Nat (the limo driver) is great.

OH! Okay... the stop Oliver wanted to do was to get burgers. Of course he needs food.

What is up with all those Western motifs? What is up with that?

C: "I'm Eugene Levy?" M: "I'm Eva Longoria." Eva: "Yeah." O: "I'm... I wanna say Tim." "I am Jack Black." (???????????) O: "Ah, that's it. Yeah." "I'm not Jack Black." Bev: "Oliver, that is Zach Galifi--" O: "Oh, yes! Zach Galifragilistic, of course." Zach: "Ha! I see what you're doing. People do this. You're trying to 'Beween two Ferns' me."

... Oliver really does not know him... well neither do I... who is this? I think I've seen him before but uhm... also let me check something.

"Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis is an American talk show hosted by comedian Zach Galifianakis which features celebrity guests." ... I have never heard of this. Okay, I checked and I might recognize his voice as Felix Fishoeder from Bob's Burgers. And... that is probably it. I haven't even watched the Hangover movies and without the beard I did not recognize him at all.

... the age gap was creepy? Really?

The people who thought it's creepy need to check their reality.

Holy shit. Zach and Oliver do not get along. Like Zach is burning Oliver... holy shit.

Also it's amazing that Eugene is a fan of Charles. That is a fun twist.

They are equally awkward too.

Loretta!

That is actually a good advice, Eva.

Cowboys and whistling wind are motifs in this episode... maybe the season.

... omg Loretta and Oliver are so cute... and it looked like he almost asked her to marry him or something? Awww...

SCOTT BAKULA!

Okay, now I see why Sazz was also doing stunts for him. I always remember him younger.

They are breaking in.

Sirens blaring in LA is not worrysome at all.

Lester is great...

Howard: "No, it's Grave-y. Shewas a CADAVER DOG!" Called it!

And everything comes together.

So, where is the body?

The trash chute... of course.

Right in the incinerator...

Oh Sazz :(

... so how did they get on the other building to shoot Sazz and then got into the Arconia to get rid of the body?

[poisonouswritings]

(For Last Legacy) M4 + other characters of your choice with some cute habits,features etc. you headcanon them have? Like in one of your headcanon posts you wrote Felix playing with his fingers when anxious,like its a nervous tick of his,do you have more stuff you imagine them possibly having?

I think the little things add to the characters

Characters are moshed together because I couldn't write them in order

Like you (and I) already mentioned, Felix plays with his fingers a lot.

Similarly I think both Anisa and Sage fiddle with their gloves, but Anisa moreso

Sage drums his fingers, usually to the beat of a lullaby he used to sing for Tulsi. She and Balsam are the only ones that recognize it.

Balsam brushes the tip of his tail over his palm(s) when he's thinking about something

Even when Scylla is drinking something other than wine she still holds it like a wine glass and swirls it. Force of habit.

Lucan uses Tulsi's head as an arm rest.

Saaros carries a lucky gem around in their pocket. Really it's just some random shiny thing Azimuth gave them because they worry so much but Saaros doesn't know that, they think it's enchanted

Florian likes to put fresh flower clippings in all the frequently-used rooms of Blackthorn

Rime unknowingly frosts the area around him when he's worried about something

Tulsi has to tuck her tail into her pants when she works and that's why you never see it. Call her cottontail and she'll cut you (or at least threaten to)

Sage does the slow blink thing cats do when he's happy

Elowen preens her hair a lot. Not because she cares how it looks (she knows it looks good) it's just her feline instincts kicking in

Does Astraea have pens or is it just quills? If they have pens Escell taps his when he does paperwork. If it's a quill he fluffs the feather against his wrist.

Ayanna doesn't even check if doors are open she just immediately goes to lockpicking.

Tulsi would be really good at The Knife Game because she that's how she tests her knife's sharpness.

Lucan bounces in his seat/in place

Does Astraea have cigarettes??? If so Escell and Scylla are lighting up. The smell is way too strong for any of the ilephtas.

Whenever Rime buys snacks he reflexively gets a second one for Felix

Saaros is terrible at remembering birthdays, including their own

Balsam likes to sneak up from behind and scare people

Lucan will pester someone until they pet him. Sorry. He loves headpats and ear rubs it calms him down.

Does weed exist on Astraea??? I think the Griefers would smoke that. Actually that's a lie the smell would kill them. I think the Griefers would do edibles

Apparently Bob Ross was a stoner so I think I can say Florian grows weed

Felix taps his feet

Anisa paces around everywhere

Rime doodles when he's trying to figure something out. What does he doodle? Flowers and plants and animals and the other Starsworn. One time he doodled a rather scandalous version of Sage shirtless and Sage found it and teased him for days. Rime threatened to stab him and Sage said Yeah He Knows Rime Wants To Penetrate Him 😏

I blame @evanox for all my Sage/Rime content btw. Good job on selling that to me Nyx

Anyways onwards and upwards

Sage and Elowen are both afraid of heights. One time they went on a bridge with Lucan and he started shaking the bridge and they freaked the fuck out and were clinging to the ropes. Beat Lucan up afterwards but it was totally worth it

I think that when ilephtas feel more acute emotions, their animal instincts are stronger. Sage purring when he's happy, Tulsi's nose twitching when she's frustrated, Balsam kicks his leg when he's anxious, Elowen is constantly looking around to defend her territory, Lucan tends to freeze for a second if people look at him, Rime will keep watch while his friends are eating, and Ayanna flicks her tail when she's annoyed

Anisa carries sweets/snaccs, both to snack on and to give to others to snack on.

Sage gets bored when he's cooking so he dances around a lot.

The more dramatic Felix is acting, the better of a mood he's in.

Felinette day 2 call out

Felix’s POV

His mother had forced him to go live with his cousin, ugh, so here he was, the entrance of his cousin’s house. Uncle was standing at the top of the stairs……again, seriously why does he always stand there. it’s like he just has a statue of himself at the top of the stairs that can talk.

“Felix, I trust you had a great flight I’m sure you would like to sleep of the jetlag but before that we have to set some ground rules.”

“first of all, I have enrolled you to Adrien’s school and I have made special arrangements for you to be in his class.”

Ugh, of course how could he ever forget, no running we have a reputation to uphold, photoshoots, fencing, Chinese- wait what?

“other than that, the other rules are the same: no running around we have a reputation to uphold……………”

ARE YOU KIDDING ME???! I have to go to his school and his class and look at his face? AND I’m miles ahead of all of them in everything!”

Obviously, he would never shout out loud like that so he stuck to his thoughts instead.

Tuning back into reality, Gabriel was done repeating the rules he had remembered by heart and dismissed him.

-The next day-

Adrien was already ready  and pointing at the door, “hey Fe, ready to go?” with a noise of confirmation they left the house.

-------------------------cue long drive to school with a hyperactive cousin-----------------------------

 “Good morning students” shouted (well not really shouted but he was standing next to her okay?) The teacher with red hair to which Felix winced at. “Today we have a new student joining us! And I’m sure you’ve all heard by now Lila’s home from her trip to Achu and she is back in school with us again.” he noticed something or rather someone who wasn’t here before, an Italian looking girl with chestnut hair that was tied up into what looked like three sausages and huge bangs at the front, with an olive skin tone and emerald green eyes that looked at him then at Adrien and had a look of confusion on her face. BUT! She then proceeded to IGNORE HIM. HIM! HE WAS A FREAKING INTERNATIONAL MODEL AND ACTOR AND THAT CAGNA IGNORED HIM! But whatever from the way she looked at his cousin she was probably a gold digging harpy. And his suspicions were correct when she greeted everyone.

“hi everyone,” she said in a fake sounding voice.

“Hi Lila!” the class sounded back. Lila? That’s her name?

“Oh~ a seat in the front row! You all remembered my hearing issues! You’re such sweethearts all of you~” “Mwuah!”

He inwardly cringed

“You have a hearing problem, Lila?”

‘hmm?’

“yes, I suffer from tinnitus. A constant ringing in my left ear. I’ve had it ever since the sound of an airplane engine burst my ear drums on the runway when I was saving Jagged Stone’s lost kitten.”

He had to admit her voice sounded genuine like it actually happened and he might have never found out she was lying if one, he was not an actor and could see the difference between genuine and fake faces and two, if her lies weren’t a load of bull. LIKE, COME ON! Which airline would let an UNDERAGE GIRL WHO’S UNAUTHORISED, ON THE RUNWAY? That airline would have closed down long ago if they couldn’t keep people from running on to the runway for reasons unknown.

The worst part is, yes there’s a worse part, his classmates seemed to believe the story she just pulled out of her ass. Well at least there was one student who doubted her.

“isn’t Jagged Stone’s pet a crocodile?”

“Now it is, yes. He had a kitten until he found out he was allergic to it.”

Deciding that everyone here was way too dumb and he didn’t want to lose any brain cells so he decided stop whatever quarrel was definitely going to go on.

Faking a cough, everyone seemed like they just remembered he was there. Even the teacher. If he were living in a comic or a cartoon there probably would’ve been one of those red crosses on his head.

“Right. Class, this is our new classmate, Felix Graham De Vanily.”

Hi’s, welcomes and clapping were heard around the room.

‘Could I just not have come?’

“Now Felix you and Marinette can sit in the back together. Also, as class president, Marinette can you show Felix around the school?”

“sigh, yes miss Bustier.”

When both of them sat down she started to introduce herself, “Hi, I’m Marinette. We can start the tour at lunch today and if you have any questions about the curriculum just ask me or anyone in the class.”

She said with a sad and tired smile.

…It looked… sincere…

Going with a simple nod they both turned their attention to the front.

After the tour he stayed back at the locker room near one of the corners. It was easy to blend into the shadows now that the people in Paris didn’t know him. despite being an international model (and sometimes actor) his face wasn’t well known as Adrien in France.

To that, he was thankful for.

Sticking to the shadows to read his book not five minutes in the girl- Marinette was it? Came back, and into the bathroom next to the locker room along with the sausage haired girl right on her heel.

“Marinette? Are you crying?”

“No, I’m not.”

“I can sense that you don’t like me but I don’t understand why, we barely know each other.

Don’t tell me it’s because of this new seating arrangement in class. It is! Of course, you were jealous because I’m sitting next to Adrien because you would have given anything to sit there yourself. You know what? It’s really not worth fighting a for a boy, you and I could be friends and who knows? I might even be able to help you with Adrien.”

Oh? Crush on my cousin? But it seemed like she was just cast into the back without her input despite all the others getting to sit at the place they wanted to.

“ugh. You and I will only be friends the day you stopped lying, Lila.”

So she knows she’s lying?

“I can’t prove it but I know for a fact you don’t have tinnitus, that your wrist is just fine, but you don’t know prince Ali cause’ you’ve never even set foot in Achu, and despite what you got Alya to write on her Ladyblog Ladybug has never saved your life.”

The first one definitely correct and so is the second one possibly, the third one might be a bt of a stretch and the fourth one, who the heck is Ladybug?

“I only tell people what they want to hear.”

“it’s called lying!”

“There’s nothing you can do about it anyway. People can’t resist when they hear what they like to hear. If you don’t want to be my friend, fine. But soon you won’t have any friends left at all and trust me, I’ll make sure you never get close to Adrien in class or anywhere. You’ve been a little less dumb than the others so I’ll give you one last chance: you are either with me or against me. You don’t have to answear right away I’ll give you the end of class today.”

Ok, first of all, were people supposed to hear that cause’ they were loud and secondly, what the heck school was he enrolled in??

The sausage haired girl walked smugly out of the bathroom.

“Hey Lila.”

“Adrien! We’ll have to figure out when you’re gonna help me catch up on all the schoolwork I missed. I also heard you play piano, my uncle’s a great pianist ‘Stroke Burrow Check’ she wanted to teach me when I was little but I had to stop playing because of arthritis. But when my wrist gets better, I’d love for you to give me some lessons.”

Didn’t sausage hair say uncle? why’d it change to ‘she’?

“Lila, I’m perfectly fine being friends with you and I’ll gladly help you catch up on your schoolwork but…please don’t lie to me like you did last time with Ladybug.”

Ah, his cousin knew she was lying. Wonder why he won’t step up for his classmate… unless it he never changed…

“Ladybugs the liar!”

“I’m not judging you, Lila but instead of making friends, you’re gonna turn everyone against you. You can tell me if there’s something bothering you. I can help. But you need to bee honest with me.”

“Are you trying to be some superhero lecturing me just like Ladybug did. Well, thanks but no thanks. Ugh.”

And with that the door slammed shut.

“I’m still here if you need catching up with your schoolwork.”

…is that a black glowing butterfly?...

…and did someone run out of the bathroom wearing a ladybug onesie?

“Hey!”

Snapping his head to the front he saw sausage girl pushing Adrien back a little.

“Adrien, I wanted to apologize for what just happened I’ve thought about it and you’re right I want us to be friends so I’ll never tell another lie again will you make peace with me?”

Then, she kissed Adrien on the cheek and… morphed into him?! what hellish nightmare place did his mother send him to?!

*insert falling to the floor sound* “Whoops! I lied.” *SLAM* huh. Sucks to be him it must be uncomfortable in there

“If this is an enchanted sleep what could possibly wake him up? Oh no, not an enchanted kiss. Please. Mmm nobody will ever know.”

Raspy low voice…can’t be a student

“Plagg? What happened? And what are you doing?”

“o-oh me? Nothing! I-I uh- Your friend Lila put you to sleep with an evil kiss. You should be more careful picking your friends!”

…it’s coming from the locker Adrien was in… should I go see what’s happening?... Nah not my problem

“Lila must have been re-akumatized! Quick! Plagg! Claws out!”

…The locker just glowed green...and someone in a cat costume just ran out… what the hell does Adrien do in his spare time? I have so many questions… you know what? I’ve seen weirder.

“Of course Ladybug saved my life. She never misses an opportunity to rescue her best friend.”

“Did your tinnitus give you vertigo when you went up the Eiffel Tower?”

“Oh no! Ladybug knows me so well that she brought me an ear plug to stick in my right ear!”

Again with someone named Ladybug…

“Grr.”

Hmm?

“Right ear? did she say right ear? This morning she said the ringing was in her left ear!

She’s not wrong… sausage hair did say the tinnitus was in her left ear this morning…

I’ve got her this time.”

Nice, things are finally getting interesting (oh Felix, if only you knew)

“Are you going to tell everyone?”

“Of course I am. Lila is-

“-A liar. Yes, I know. But do you really think exposing her will make things better?”

Did he just ruin the most interesting part of his day? Bitch. Try again.

“And who’s to say not exposing her will make things better?”

“But if you humiliate her, she’ll just be hurt more making a bad guy suffer has never turned them into a good guy-

“And has letting a so called bad guy do whatever they wanted ever make them a good guy?”

(“Ladybug and I are like two peas in a pod.”)

“Take for example, Bourgeois. Heard she’s the resident school bully. Has she ever changed?”

“She’s better-

“Wasn’t talking to you, Adrien. Has she treated anyone in your class out of the supposed kindness in her heart?”

“Well no but-

“There is no but. It just proves that even if you let the ‘bad guy’ do whatever they want they won’t become a ‘good guy’ also if you keep letting Bourgeois do whatever she wants your going to lose all your friends. I may not have friends but even I know that much. Think about it, how many times has Adrien stood up for you or any of your classmates when Bourgeois were bullying you and your classmates vs the times Adrien has stood up for Bourgeois for bullying you.”

“I-he uh, he stood up for the whole school when Chloe pulled the fire alarm and- uh”

“That’s just one time. Face it, Adrien stands up for bullies far more times than when he stood up for his friends.”

“That’s not true! I apologised-

“You apologised but did you stand up or defend your friends?”

Okay, so half of it might be about my grudge on him but it was true! Surprisingly, Adrien didn’t approach him for the rest of the day.

-The next day-

His seatmate, Marinette, sat down next to him, “Thank you. I never noticed I had always put Adrien up on a pedestal like he could not do any wrong. I never noticed that Adrien had some very questionable flaws.”

“Mm.”

And then she smiled at him.

His heart skipped a beat, the smile was sweet and sincere… and he found that she was rather likable.

description: you had to watch over your little bother for a while, and you were scared you guys wouldn’t bond. Can his handsome teacher help?

“Mom,” You sighed one again gathering all the thrown colorful pens around the living room. “I know how to care of him. It’s okay, just enjoy your vacation and I’ll make sure Felix is still alive by the time you come back.”

“Y/N!” You mother gasps. “He is just four!”

“I know,” You chuckle. “I was there when he popped out, and I’m still here as he grows. Mom, I can take care of my little brother, it’s fine!”

“I want daily pictures as proof that he’s still breathing!” She shouts from the other side of the line. “Daily!”

“Deal,” You say, looking around the, now clean, living room. “Now go have fun. Bye! Love ya!”

“Love you too, honey. Thank you for this!” She exclaims and then the line is dead. 

You laughed at how adorably worried your mother was. Felix was the newest addition to the family, coming as a surprise to everyone, but he was one of the loveliest kids you’ve ever seen. And you really did not vibe with kids, hence why your mother was so hesitant to call you over to take care of him. She knows about your uncomfortableness around kids, and tried every single other family member before she called you. You were thankful for that, but you were also kind of happy to spend more time with your bother. 

Felix was born during your freshman year of college, and now, four months away from graduation, you finally had a chance to bond with your brother. You had a bunch of pictures of him on apartment on campus, but you guys never really had the time to hang out and do siblings stuff, such as go to the park, or get ice cream, or even watch a Disney movie together. You had that with your eldest brother, and those memories were the ones you cherished the most– you wanted to give Felix that same feeling… of being loved. 

“Noona,” You hear a voice calling from the kitchen. He was still shy around you, and it honestly made your heart tighten on your chest. “I’m hungry.”

“Okay,” You smile and slowly walk closer to him. “What do you want for dinner?”

His little brown eyes shine with happiness. “Rice cakes! Lots of rice cakes!”

And who were you to say no to him? The only problem was that you were as bad in the kitchen as you were with kids, so you sheepishly look at him and tell him to go grab his jacket. 

“Why?” He asks.

“We’re going to get the best rice cakes ever,” You say crouching down. “But we have to go out to get them.”

You remember when your parents would take you to the night market, and you thought Felix might enjoy it too. He nods his head rapidly and bolts up the stairs, making you worry he might fall. Aish, I’m almost like my mom, you think laughing to yourself. Be the cool noona, Y/N, not the helicopter mom. 

“I am ready!” He exclaims and you coo at how cute he looked with a beanie and his puffy orange jacket. “Let’s go, noona! Rice cakes!”

“Let’s go!” You say grabbing the car keys, and the his tiny hand. 

This would be fun. You’d make it fun.

————————

Turns out fun for you and fun for Felix are two different things. For you, it was a nice hang out time with your little brother where you had great childhood memories, eating tteokbokki, and drinking warm tea. Felix, on the other hand, was a kid, and he definitely didn’t want to sit down and drink warm tea. He ran around the place, saying hi to every single vendor, learning that cute eyes and polite ‘hellos’ got him free samples from each and every single one stand. 

His energy, seemingly never ending, was exhausting to you. Your good humor was dissipating slowly as you ran after him. You promised your mom he’d be alive in a week, and you’d be damned if you failed your mission. 

He was now out of sight, and you were freaking out. You couldn’t find him in the sea of people, and you hoped for a miracle to fall from the skies. Safe to say it didn’t quite fall from the skies, but more like it came out from behind the japchae stand. A boy, probably around your age, holding Felix close and mumbling things as they walked. Felix had a serious look, eyes wondering up to every single passerby, and you could’ve cried in relief as he pointed at you and shouted “Noona!”

You run to them, and look at your brother seriously. “Felix! You can’t run around like that, I was worried!”

“Sorry, Y/N noona…” He mumbled looking at his feet. 

“Don’t do it again, Lix,” You say and he comes to hug your legs, hiding behind them, and curiously looking up to the man watching you both with a smile.

“I’m glad we found you,” The man says, offering you his hand. “I’m Yang Jeongin. I found this little cutie wondering alone, and got pretty worried.”

“Thank you so much, Jeongin,” You smile shyly. “I’m Lee Y/N, his older sister. It’s the first time I’m taking care of him and I’m not really good with kids so…”

“Oh, everyone is good with kids,” He laughs. “You just have to think alike.”

And you laugh because that sounds absurd. How could you think like a child? You were almost graduating for christ’s sake!

“I know it sounds weird,” He says lowering himself to look at Felix. From the pockets of his jacket, he pulls a lollipop, and your brother’s eyes shine, hands instantly grabbing the man’s sleeves. “But they are easy to deal with if you make sense to them. Adults usually don’t make sense to kids, so if you think like them, they’ll think like you.”

“Wow,” You mumbled. “You have a lot of little brothers?”

“About a classroom of them,” He laughs. “I’m a pre-school teacher.”

“Oh that sounds… fun.” You say hoping you managed to hide your shock behind a smile.

“Liar,” Jeongin teases with squinting eyes. “You don’t like kids?”

“What?!” Felix exclaims from behind you, looking at you accusingly. 

Grabbing him and holding him up on your lap, you poke his nose. “I’m not really good with them, but I like this one very much.”

“Cute,” You hear Jeongin mumble, and then someone screams his name. “Oh, I have to go. It was nice talking to you, keep an eye on this one, he is very hyper.”

“I will,” You shout after him. “Thank you again!”

As he leaves, you couldn’t help but smile. There really were good people out there. 

————————

“Wake up, Y/N noona, wake up!” 

The voice is cute and soft, but the feet that padded on your back and the tiny body jumping on you was anything but adorable. You wanted to lay in bed forever, but unfortunately, today was Felix’s first day of pre-school, and you had to get him dressed and fed in time to make it there before 8AM. 

“Hi bubs,” You mumble, sitting up. “I’m up. I’m awake.”

“Can you make pancakes?” He asks and you nod. You realize you’re bribing the kid’s love with food, but there is nothing much you can do besides that; you were afraid you wouldn’t bond with him, so giving him the world seemed fair enough. 

“Yeah yeah,” You say getting up. “Let’s go.”

Somehow you manage it. The pancakes don’t burn thanks to the detailed tutorial on YouTube, he manages to dress himself properly only messing up the t-shirt once, and you guys are out the door with enough time to walk to the school. You notice so many things about Felix on the way and you cannot help but feel all warm inside. He liked cats and dogs, although he tended to carefully approach the latter; Felix would be easily enticed by butterflies and other insects, stopping on the way to watch them. His never ending energy seemed to be at its peak during the walk, and he’d run off before you, stop at a crosswalk, and wait for you to catch up patiently. He liked holding hands, even though he could barely reach yours. He liked dancing, a lot, and would always be doing a weird dance when food arrived. You took a special liking to that last fact. Once you reached the gates of the pre-school, you walked him in, confused as to where you were supposed to take him. You looked at the lists on the announcement wall and tried to find Felix’s name, but there were way too many Lee’s in that place. 

“Excuse me,” Someone calls from behind you. “I think I can help.”

“Oh! Thank you, that’d be gre-“ You turn around with a large smile and stop mid-sentence when you see him– Yang Jeongin. “You again!”

“Me again,” He chuckles and looks at Felix, who in his turn, was looking curiously around him. Everything was colorful and pretty. “Hi buddy. Do you remember me?”

Felix looks at you and you nod softly, giving him the confidence to step forward and nod harshly. 

“Great,” Jeongin smiles and a pretty smile that has your legs weak. “Can you tell me how old are you?”

“I’m four.” Felix says, raising four chubby fingers. 

“That’s so cool, Felix,” and oh my god, he remembered Felix’s name. “That means I’m your teacher!”

“What?” You ask surprised. You had completely forgotten about his job. 

“I told you, I’m a pre-school teacher,” He shrugs and smiles again. “Did you forget already? Wow…”

“No!” You exclaim a little too loudly. Embarrassed, you laugh awkwardly. “I just think this is such a–“

“Coincidence?” He nods his head, still freaking smiling. “Tell me about it! When I saw you two I thought I was being followed.”

You laugh and sake your head. “At least Felix will be more comfortable in the classroom, now that he knows his teacher…” 

“I’m glad,” Jeongin says putting his hands in his pockets. “This is only the second classroom I’m in charge of… ever.”

“Really?” You widen your eyes. He really did look young; young like you. 

“Yeah, I graduated last year!” He blushes a little. “Are you still in college?”

“Senior year,” You say making a face. “A few months away from graduation.”

“What are you study-“ and a shrill bell cuts him off. Time to go, you thought, and you feel a little sad. “Class time…”

“I figured,” You say and starts slowly walking away. “I’ll be back to get him later.”

“Wait!” Jeongin shouts and he walks to you in two long strides. “He’s not your kid, right?”

“What?” You laugh, surprised with the question. “No, Felix is my little brother. He calls me ‘noona,’ Jeongin!”

“I just needed to make sure!” He defends himself, hands going into his back pocket.

“Why?” You mumble, a little skeptical. 

“So I can ask for your number, obviously,” He smirks and gives you his phone. 

You chuckle and takes it from him. “Obviously.”

————————

It happens quickly, and in two days you guys have your first date. You are not quite sure why Jeongin felt like he was in a hurry, but you had a feeling that it had to do with Felix. Once you were ready, you called for your brother and made sure to properly protect him from the cold outside. You read on the weather report that there was a high chance for snow tonight, and the last thing you wanted was for Felix to get sick. 

“… and then teacher Jeongin let us color for the rest of the class because we were doing a good job!” He rambled on and on about his classes so far. “I did one for you, noona!”

“You did?” You were honestly surprised at this point. It was clear that Felix had gotten comfortable with you, but having him making a drawing for you was something that really filled you with pride. “Thank you, Lix!”

He beams his cute smile at you and you can’t help but crouch down and hug him. “Come on, big boy, I’ll give you a piggy back ride.”

You guys laugh and talk about his new friends during the walk and you feel happy like you haven’t in a while. It’s hard to admit when you’re struggling, but college was taking a toll on you. The stress was consuming you whole and just thinking about graduation made you anxious. You didn’t really know what to do, but for the past couple of days you haven’t thought about that at all. You haven’t felt the constricting feeling of anxiety or the tired restlessness of insomnia, and you had a feeling that your brother was the reason why. Just last night, he crawled into your bed in the middle of the night because he had a bad dream, and you only noticed it in the morning, when you tried to move, but he was hugging your arm so tightly that you couldn’t. 

“Y/N! Felix!” You turn your head to look at Jeongin. He looked incredible, and he was only wearing a hoodie and some jeans. Thinking about it, this was the first time you saw him look his age; young and carefree. He was standing at the entrance of the night market, where you guys first met, and you couldn’t help but smile. 

“Put me down, noona!” Felix asked and you did, watching him run to his teacher. “Hi teacher Jeongin!”

“Hey buddy,” and they high five. “Hey Y/N.”

You blush. “Hello.”

He chuckles and whispers a ‘cute’ under his breath, making you blush even more, and takes your hand. “Let’s go!” 

With his other hand, he is holding Felix’s, and sometimes he lets go, allowing the kid to run around, but then calling him back, and surprisingly, he’d come. You guys had a fun time on the date; you ate delicious food and laughed at Felix’s antics with the food stands yet again. The talk was overall shallow, such as school, aspirations, funny stories. It wasn’t until he gave the idea to go to a playground, that you guys had time to yourselves. As Felix played, hopefully tiring him out enough so that once bedtime came he’d be worn out, you two watched him from the bench a few meters away. 

“How are you feeling?” He asks and you think that that is the first time someone asked you that. “With kids, I mean. How are you feeling taking care of Felix?”

“Honestly?” You ask and he nods. “I was terrified at first. Felix and I haven’t had the chance to bond before this, so I was scared he’d hate me. But now… I don’t think I’ve ever been this calm and exhausted before.” You guys laugh.

“It’s rewarding,” He shrugs. “I obviously love kids, but I feel that there’s more to it. Watching them draw and play and learn, it’s very rewarding.” 

You hum in accordance. “It really must feel great knowing you’re making a change on their lives…”

“It is,” He says and reaches for something on the pocket of his coat. “And you can feel that too.”

He gives you a folded paper, with that one smile in his face– the one he had when he looked at the kids in his class. A caring smile. 

You unfold it, and you smile wide. It was a drawing of what you assumed it was you and Felix. They were stick figures with block-like clothing, but it was so beautiful. On top, it was written with careful, badly drawn letters: ‘Noona and I.’

“He talks about you a lot,” Jeongin says, scooting closer to you, shamelessly grabbing you hand again, and putting it inside of his own jacket pocket. “His older noona. He said you’re really smart and fun and pretty.”

“Did he?” You whisper, happiness overflowing.

“He did,” Jeongin turns his head at you. “And I agree. His older noona really is pretty and fun. I don’t know about smart though…”

“Ya!” You laugh, hitting him with you free hand. You carefully put the drawing on your purse, making sure to take a mental not to frame it later. 

“He said he is sad that his mom is coming back, because it means you’ll be gone,” Jeongin mumbles. “And I guess I’m sad too…”

“Jeongin…” You giggle. “My college is just thirty minutes away from here.”

“Really?!” He exclaims so loud that you jump a little. 

“Yeah,” You say laying your head on his shoulder. “We can see each other a lot, still.”

“I’m glad.”  And his face starts getting closer and closer, until a small hand comes in between you two.

“No kissing my noona, teacher Jeongin.” Felix demands with a serious face. 

You burst out laughing, placing Felix on your lap. 

“But I really like her,” Jeongin fake whispers to him. 

“Really really?” Felix whispers back, and you can’t help yourself. You grab your phone and take a picture of this moment; Felix and Jeongin discussing the future of your possible relationship. “But does noona likes you back?”

And they look at you. “I really like him, too,” You whisper to your brother. 

“Then you guys can date!” He shouts, clapping his little hands. 

“That’s a great idea, Felix!” Jeongin laughs and then looks at you, waiting for a response.

“It really is,” You say and you are just so soft for these two. 

“But still,” Felix says. “No kissing my noona.”

“Why?” Jeongin asks.

“My dad says so.”

And you are pretty sure you choked on air.

game of survival

plot: basically small scenarios taken off the time the survival program that formed stray kids was happening.

word count: 2k-ish

hi guys! it’s mari here! it took me a little while to put some stuff out for mimi, so i’m sorry for that. sorry for any typos in here, i tried my best to edit it in my free time but you never know hehe,,, anyways, i hope you guys like it!

*mãinha is regional “slang” for mother in brazilian portuguese

the first mission in the survival was to convince jyp that he should debut a girl within his new boygroup.

after much much work, and way too many meetings, she stood in front of the man that would decide her future, who would tell her what her 8 years of training would be worth.

“the team that will be debuting will be chan's project team, all 10 of you”

💌

“hello!” mimi sounded cheerful as she pressed ths buttons on a elevator “today we're moving into the dorms, so i’m bringing you guys here with me while i pack!”

she seemed giddy, a giggle leaving her lips as the thought of finally debuting hit her.

“mãinha, cheguei viu?”(mom*, i'm home, okay?) she said as she closed the door behind her, her mother greeting her back from the kitchen, still in portuguese.

her family wasn't crazy rich, but still, they were well off enough to have a big apartment that fit the three of them and their cats.

about the cats, mimi zoomed the camera in one of the sleeping cats, chanel, the eldest of the three, who was sleeping on the couch, before she walked to her room.

“and this... is my room” she turned the light switch on and filmed the white walls, waiting for the camera to focus again “miumiu, you're here?” the camera focus changed to her bed, where a white slept on top of the pink bed covers.

the remainder of her vlog was similar to that, she showed her parents, who looked proud of her, though they were quite camera shy, and showed her last cat, dior, a tabby she rescued on her way back from practice a year prior.

💌

with the making of hellevator, mirae felt apologetic towards chan. it just happened that he made a song in the female key, yet park jinyoung accused him of making a song to fit her. it didn't make much sense to her at all, she had a few parts, and even asked to have less parts so she wouldn't stick out too much.

things were looking rough, but she couldn't let that knock her, or any of her boys, down.

💌

with the 3:4:3 battles, a lot was happening. at first, mimi was glad she was in the same team as felix, minho and changbin, however, she was starting to regret her choices as felix screeched loudly after changbin kissed him on the cheek.

everything seemed at peace near the han river, so she felt a little apologetic towards the bystanders that had to listen to felix’ freak out… at least it would be nice content for the show… and at least felix got the kiss he wanted.

💌

things weren't exactly going smoothly that day.

even after practicing so hard, felix was criticized, minho got the lyrics wrong and she once again received a jab for not being hungry for lines.

it was almost like jyp didn't know what he wanted from her.

it was a big deal already, a girl in a boygroup? it sounded so weird, not exactly being the loved cookie cutter format the industry had since the 90s, now, jyp didn't want her to steal all the spotlight, yet he wanted her to stand out just enough, and she didn't seem to know how much was enough.

the day had been rough, and she was already so frustrated, so, the moment it was announced minho would be eliminated, she couldn't stop her tears as she hugged him tight.

minho tried to calm her down as he always did before, wiping away her tears and patting her head, all that while trying to keep the smile on his face.

that made her cry harder

💌

after minho left, everything felt weird, wrong. they still practiced, mimi still called her parents every night and skyped them to see the cats running around and to see her mother's comforting smile, she still bought her usual snacks from the convenience store near the training center. the group even went on a vacation with the program, where she had a lot of fun.

but that felt hollow, weird, as if a big part of it was missing.

and it was.

she could feel her hands shake as soon as the video message minho made started playing, she held changbin's hand as she stood beside him, already feeling her throat close, eyes watering as her turn approached

“mimi-yah” minho said in the video “i bet you're already crying, right? you've always been a little baby about those things”

she felt herself smile alongside him, but both their smiles were still sad

“oppa is so sorry” minho said quietly “please don't blame yourself too much, you're doing so well and you have to keep up the good work, okay?”

she felt the tears running down her face as she kneeled down to the floor with a choked sob, changbin rubbing her back lightly.

“don't forget to tell me if anyone is being mean to you, okay?” she looked up at the screen as if he could see her right now “oppa is the only one allowed to be mean to you”

she couldn't pay more attention after that, she just covered her face with her yellow hoodie and tried to calm down, cursing lee minho for making her miss him too much.

💌

during the battle with the yg trainees, mimi was feeling better.

she still missed minho, and it still felt weird to train without him, but it wasn't like they didn't text every night anyways.

she had trained very hard with all of the boys, finally feeling confident after jyp let her be a part of the  vocal team and be a part of the group performance.

it was the first time her compliments came without any stab in the back, so she felt good about it.

“i'm mimi!” she smiled as she introduced herself to yg himself.

“a girl in your boygroup?” he asked jyp “that's bold”

she nodded as he looked back at her

“mimi, are you not from here?” he looked at her file, seeing the long name written down in hangul

“i'm from brazil, sir, but i moved eight years ago”

“have you trained in jyp for eight years?”

“no sir, i trained at sm for four years before moving to jyp” she answered, a small smile still on her face. she wanted to look confident, even if her hands felt clammy

after that exchange and yg's comment of hoping their future in the group wasn't like the song, they performed and mimi felt completely comfortable for the first time that day.

💌

after getting complimented so much by yang hyunsuk(from her stable vocals to her charm and her combined adlib with woojin, she could feel herself fill up with pride every time she remembered those compliments) himself, mimi could tell jyp was finally gonna let her off the hook for a bit, even so, she knew she shouldn't get too comfortable.

so, as they sat down waiting for him, she hit her false nails against the table, chatting with jisung and trying to distract herself

💌

brunch with their boss ended up being just fine, the food was nice, they read their letters and she allowed herself to eat more than she usually did.

however, she felt a little sick the moment they were reminded of the mission

“this time, it will be busking” jyp announced and she held her fork with more force so it wouldn't fall and hit the table.

they hadn't performed like that before, and she could feel them all tense up a bit as they thought about doing it.

💌

as they all trained for the mission, mimi couldn't help but worry about felix the most.

he had quickly become one of her best friends in the time they spent together, and she knew he was such a hard worker.

she worried that he would start doubting himself, and overwork himself, so, even though she wanted to be there with him, she settled for at least texting him and making sure he was treating himself fairly

💌

the night of the busking event, mimi took the mic with a big smile on her face as she helped with mcing, she kept the smile on even as the boys talked, ignoring the blaring sirens going in her head and the pain in her stomach she felt as she got more nervous.

she just had to hold it in until it was over.

💌

“everyone!” she exclaimed, her smile growing as she heard people cheering her, calling her name and yelling how pretty she was “was today fun?” she heard them screaming yes “we're so glad you all are enjoying our performance as much as we are enjoying to perform to you!”

chan then kept up with the ment until the show was over

💌

mimi was criticized after the busking event, though not was roughly as some of her group mates.

her vocals weren't her best because of how nervous she was, and she made minor mistakes because of it. but she would be fine, at least her position would.

💌

when she heard jyp saying felix wouldn't continue with them, she felt her world shatter as the worst case scenario happened again.

mimi couldn't believe this.

she felt felix, who was next to her, turn on his back, not wanting them to see him wiping his tears.

she wanted to curse jyp, call him all the ugly curse words she knew in portuguese, slap some sense into him.

but she couldn't, so she settled with crying and hugging felix as hard as she could, saying sorry over and over again as everyone cried, feeling lost.

as she back hugged him, he turned around to hug her back, telling her not to feel sorry towards him, whispering that he was the one that was sorry instead, that he should have listened to her advice.

as jisung joined in on their hug, the duo cried harder, both bawling their eyes out.

after a moment, jisung started pulling her away, telling her to let him talk to chan, and she proceeded to cry on jisung's chest, something she found herself doing more and more often after the show started.

💌

mimi was feeling out of the loop for a few days and she felt sorry to the boys for it, though she wasn't the only one.

it felt weird going from ten to nine, and from nine to eight. it felt wrong.

they were still not over minho leaving, now felix was gone too.

mimi was never the most religious, though her mother was a devout catholic, but she prayed every night that whoever was out there, if there was someone, that if they could, they would bring them back to the group

💌

the moment felix and minho walked back into the practice room, mimi felt her heart fill up, like some sort of balloon filling up with helium and going up to the sky.

she giggled as they walked in and as things felt completely right for the first time in a while.

💌

alongside the burden of debuting, mimi would also be dealing with the burden of being the only girl in the group. it wasn't like she hadn't read the headlines, a lot of people didn't want her there, calling her a little whore, claiming horrible things about her.

she knew she had to prove them wrong, as soon as possible.

💌

“stray kids will debut as 10”

mimi's ears were ringing, she could hear the crowd start cheering as the words left jyp, becoming some sort of mantra in her head as she repeated them to herself, minho and felix ran towards them and she felt herself being engulfed by her best friends, her group mates. she felt her throat close as her eyes filled with tears, even if she tried to hold back her tears, she knew that the moment she looked up at one of the boys, she would start bawling like a little kid.

that was exactly what happened.

she looked up and locked eyes with felix, her best friend, and the one person she felt the most apologetic for, and she felt her tears running down as he wiped them, she looked beside him and saw all of the other boys.

mimi looked up at her nine groupmates, at the people she cared the most about, and she felt like things would be okay.

Fashion Don’t

Minho x Reader

Crack/Fluff

“You are my only competition for this ugly sweater party, but I’ve won the past two years and you will not end my streak.”

“Han Jisung, when I find you, you are dead.” I receive a few concerned looks as I dodge and weave through the sea of party goers, mumbling threats to my best friend under my breath. When he said he didn’t want to be seen with me at the party, I didn’t think he was going to disappear within two seconds of us setting foot in the door. Besides, my sweater’s not even that bad this year. 

Speaking of...

I glance down at what Jisung refers to as, “the bane of his existence”, adjusting the knitted sweater on my body. I’m quite proud of it this year. Not that I’m not every year, but this year, I think I finally managed to outdo myself. It wasn’t easy finding yarn in this specific shade of snot green, and the cashier at the crafts store looked at me like I was crazy when I bought up their entire stock of tinsel. Clearly, I am the only one who appreciates my craftsmanship.

Finally, I spot Jisung through the crowd, nestled away in the corner of the room with Felix and Hyunjin. I should’ve known he’d be with those two. I don’t even try to hide my approach, marching up to them with the bells on my sweater jingling loudly with each step. The boys look up in surprise, and I see Hyunjin’s eyes widen as Felix immediately bursts into laughter.

“Oh my God!” He chokes out. “Y/N, that’s-”

“Absolutely disgusting,” Hyunjin’s lip curls up in distaste. He squints his eyes, holding a hand in front of his face. “God, you could decorate an entire house with all the lights you’ve got on that...thing.”

“Yeah, I know,” I smirk, pointing to the letters sewn across my chest. “That’s why I’m...”

“Oh, no.”

“Oh, yes.”

“Too lit to quit!” Felix descends into another fit of giggles, while Jisung rolls his eyes and Hyunjin visibly cringes.

“See?” Jisung sighs. “This is why I ran away from her.”

“Ah, you guys are just jealous,” Felix wipes a tear from his eye, shooting me a thumbs up with his other hand. “Y/N, I’d say you got first place in the bag again.”

Hyunjin shakes his head, taking a quick sip of his hot chocolate, “I wouldn’t be so sure about that. I think you’ve got some real competition this year, Y/N.”

“Excuse me?”

“Are you saying there’s someone dressed worse than her at this freaking party?” Jisung’s voice is laced with disbelief.

“I didn’t say he was going to beat her,” Hyunjin shrugs. “Just that it might not be an easy win like it was last year.”

“And the year before that,” Felix chimes in. “C’mon, guys, Y/N’s the ugly sweater champ at Woojin hyung’s Christmas parties, she’s not going to lose to some newbie.”

“I’m not going to lose, period,” I cross my arms, staring Hyunjin right in the eyes. “You know who it is, don’t you?” He audibly gulps, glancing between the other two boys helplessly. I narrow my eyes, reaching to turn on the speaker in my sweater when he caves.

“Okay, fine! I do!” Hyunjin exclaims. “It’s Lee Minho!”

“Isn’t he Chan hyung’s friend?”

“Yeah,” Hyunjin sighs. “This is the first year hyung’s actually been able to convince him to come.” I nod my head pensively, stroking the imaginary beard on my face. So this ‘Minho’ is Chan’s doing...

“Mayhaps, I should have a talk with Mr. Bang...”

Jisung rolls his eyes, but waves me off nonetheless, “Just don’t go too crazy, okay? I don’t wanna have to bail you out for holiday vandalism.”

“No promises!”

I wink at the boys, and turn to skip off back into the crowd I came from. My eyes scan the room in search of the black hoodie I know Chan is wearing (because it’s what he always wears, despite Woojin’s requests and complaints), but something else catches my attention. Or should I say, someone.

Standing over by the refreshments table, I spot a boy wearing the most atrocious sweater I’ve ever seen in my life. The base of the sweater is a bright purple, and the neon yellow ruffles going down his sleeves are a total eyesore. He’s facing away from me, but the black felt cat butt sewn onto his back tells me I’m dealing with no mere novice. This is definitely the boy I’m looking for.

I steel myself, ready to walk over and show him that my ugly sweater crown is not to be trifled with when he suddenly turns around.

And he’s absolutely beautiful.

My eyes lock with his, and I stumble, tripping over my own feet and almost sending myself sprawling onto the floor. Almost because two arms wrap around my middle, and adjust me back upright before I can even blink.

“Woah, there,” Sweater boy smiles, and I have to remind myself that his cute face does not negate the fact that he is the enemy. “Are you okay? I’m Minho.”

“You!” I narrow my eyes, pointing a finger in his face. “What business do you have showing up dressed like that, Lee Minho?”

Minho raises a brow, looking around my finger to meet my glare, “It’s an ugly sweater party? And I wanted to participate?” His eyes glance down at my own sweater, and he smirks. “Apparently just like you did. How did you get those ornaments to stay like that?” I falter, hand falling lamely back down to my side as I gape at him.

“I...What?”

“I wanted to put more glitter on mine, but Chan hyung told me he’d make me ride in the trunk if I did, so,” Minho rolls his eyes at Chan’s obvious irrationality. “I’m blaming him if I lose the competition because of it.” My ears perk up, and I suddenly remember why I’m talking to him in the first place.

“You’re trying to win the competition?” I cross my arms, trying to appear nonchalant in my curiosity.

“Yeah!” He nods, and the cocky smile returns to his face. “People have been telling me I have a good shot, but to keep an eye out for the reigning champ. Apparently, she’s known for going like, all out.”

“Is she now?”

“That’s just what people have said,” Minho shakes his head confidently. “I’m sure I can beat her, though. I mean, the only person I’ve seen with a sweater that’s not totally boring or unoriginal is...” He trails off, eyes flicking down to my sweater as his lips curl into a catlike smirk once more. “You.”

“I would take that as a compliment,” I try not to blush when his gaze returns to mine, “but I think that’ll just make it all the more painful when I crush you into second place.”

“Damn,” Minho laughs. “They weren’t kidding when they said you don’t play.” He leans in closer, grinning when I instinctively take a step back. “Well, neither do I, sweetheart. So how about we skip the trash talk and make this a little more interesting?”

I cross my arms, eyeing him warily, “What do you mean?”

“Simple,” He says. “We make a bet. If you, somehow, manage to win first place, I’ll back out of the competition forever, and you can keep your crown as queen for years to come.”

“And if you win?”

“You’ll see.” Something twinkles in Minho’s eyes, but between the arrogant look on his face and my stubborn competitiveness, I don’t think twice before holding my hand out for him to shake.

“Deal.”

“Hey, Y/N, don’t be sad,” Felix coos, patting my back in . “At least you got that sweet gift card out of it.”

“Gift cards aren’t first place, Felix,” I grumble, crossing my arms and sinking further into the couch. I toss my stupid consolation prize on the coffee table, “Besides, I don’t even like Starbucks that much...”

“Oooh, does that mean I can have it?” I wave my hand dismissively, and Felix gleefully scoops up the gift card for himself. “Awesome, thanks, Y/N! But, uh, sorry that you lost and everything.”

I sigh, running a hand over my face, “It’s fine. Second place isn’t completely losing, I guess...” The memory of the announcement of the winner flashes in my mind, and I throw my arms up in exasperation. “But how the hell did he make the choir of cats on his sweater sing the entirety of All I Want for Christmas?!”

“The same way you managed to be brighter than a Christmas tree,” A familiar voice trills. “With skill.” I look up to find Minho standing in front of us, signature smirk on his face and first place trophy under his arm.

“I, uh...I’m gonna go.” Felix, the coward, scurries off before I can stop him, leaving me alone with my new public enemy #1.

“Mind if I sit?” He doesn’t wait for me to respond, plopping down in Felix’s old seat, and setting his prize on the table. “You know what that means, right?”

I roll my eyes, “That you won the competition?”

“Yes, it does, but what else does it mean?”

“That I lost the bet.” I force the words out through gritted teeth, and Minho grins beside me. “What do you want me to do, Lee?” Minho smirks, biting his lip as he leans closer.

“Go on a date with me.”

I blink, definitely not expecting that to come out of his mouth, “What?”

“Go on a date with me,” He repeats with a shrug. “I want to know more about the queen of ugly sweaters, even if she’s been decrowned.”

“Fine, Minho, you’ve got a date,” I can’t help but smile at the excited look in his eyes. “But don’t think I’m not kicking your ass next year.”

“Oh, I’m sure you will,” Minho laughs, throwing an arm over my shoulder. “Unless, of course, our sweaters are matching.”

I respect that victory &even though I miss them.. My children don’t need me. I wasn’t good to them when they did. I doubt they’re aware I came back and I’ll keep it that way for all our sakes. There’s no point in asking me how exactly I returned to life. I don’t know and I don’t particularly care. Maybe Hell just can’t handle me yet.

FELIX MYERS: CHARACTER SHEET 001

01: Do you have a good relationship with your parents?

All I’ve got is my dad and I wouldn’t particularly care if he dropped dead, personally. 

02: Who did you last say “I love you” to?

Probably Liv, but I don’t say it much in general.

03: Do you regret anything?

I’d say all of freshman year.

04: Are you insecure?

Not outwardly, but I’d say I am, definitely.

05: What is your relationship status?

Single.

06: How do you want to die?

Ideally when I’m old and just kinda quietly but chances of that happening feel slim.

07: What did you last eat?

I got chicken fingers from Dairy’s on my way home last night.

08: Played any sports?

Definitely not.

09: Do you bite your nails?

I used to, but not anymore.

10: When was your last physical fight?

Freshman year was the last time I was hit but I’ve never hit someone else. But I have run for people late last year.

11: Do you like someone?

I do, yeah.

12: Have you ever stayed up 48 hours?

Easily, it happens a lot.

13: Do you hate anyone at the moment?

I don’t think I’ve ever truly hated anyone.

14: Do you miss someone?

I guess in a weird sense my mom, not because she was an angel but I guess just because it’s been a while and she’d at least be a breath of fresh air compared to Dad.

15: Have any pets?

No. Reese and I secretly own a cat.

16: How exactly are you feeling at the moment?

Today things are quiet. A little sad, but it’s manageable.

17: Ever made out in the bathroom?

Definitely not.

18: Are you scared of spiders?

Not entirely? I don’t freak out when I see them, and I don’t want people to kill them, but I don’t want them touching me. But that’s bugs in general, not just spiders.

19: Would you go back in time if you were given the chance?

Probably not, there’s nothing really good for me in the past.

20: Where was the last place you snogged someone?

I haven’t kissed anyone.

21: What are your plans for this weekend?

I’ll probably be home again, that’s all.

22: Do you want to have kids? How many?

I don’t really want kids right now? Like as of right now I can’t imagine being a dad. But I think I’d be good at it, so maybe one day. And probably no more than three.

23: Do you have piercings? How many?

Nope, none, and I probably won’t ever. I don’t like needles.

24: What is/are/were your best subject(s)?

I’m actually really good at science and history, even though I have like a C average in both.

25: Do you miss anyone from your past?

There have been a few friends that fell through while I was away that I miss.

26: What are you craving right now?

A hug. Probably more chicken tenders.

27: Have you ever broken someone’s heart?

I doubt it, but I do have to admit I probably fucked Liv up mentally when I left.

28: Have you ever been cheated on?

I haven’t dated anyone before, so thankfully not.

29: Have you made a boyfriend/girlfriend cry?

I haven’t had one to upset.

30: What’s irritating you right now?

In reality, the ocean and how little we know about it. It sketches me out.

31: Does somebody love you?

As much as I want to say nobody, I do have a few friends and people in my life that I know deep down I can run to and they’d drop everything for me.

32: What is your favorite color?

Probably yellow, surprisingly enough.

33: Do you have trust issues?

Probably, yeah. I haven’t noticed.

34: Who/what was your last dream about?

I try not to remember a lot of my dreams, but probably something like drowning or being tied up or something. They’re not great dreams.

35: Who was the last person you cried in front of?

Probably Kenneth, in reality.

36: Do you give out second chances too easily?

I rarely give out first chances, so probably not.

37: Is it easier to forgive or forget?

Forgive? Sure. Forget? I don’t think so.

38: Is this year the best year of your life?

In comparison to the other ones, sure, yeah, I could say that.

39: How old were you when you had your first kiss?

Hasn’t happened yet.

40: Have you ever walked outside completely naked?

Definitely not.

51: Favourite food?

Shocker, probably chicken tenders. I feel like I’m highkey five years old.

52: Do you believe everything happens for a reason?

Not consciously, but I think if I really think about it then maybe. Not necessarily like a butterfly effect thing, where your whole life is mapped out beforehand, but I think there’s a general thing that should happen and multiple options as to how it could happen. I don’t even know if that’d make sense.

53: What is the last thing you did before you went to bed last night?

I put my phone on the charger and read for like a half hour.

54: Is cheating ever okay?

I think the only reason cheating is somewhat tolerable is if you’re figuring yourself out. Like if you’re in a straight relationship and you’re figuring out the other option. But in the end, it does call for human decency to break up with the other person first.

55: Are you mean?

Yeah, I think a word to describe me could be mean. I don’t mean to be, it just happens.

56: How many people have you fist fought?

None, technically.

57: Do you believe in true love?

I think deep down, yeah. I just don’t think it’s meant for everyone.

58: Favourite weather?

Thunderstorms, hands down. If there’s a violent thunderstorm going on, I feel almost high during it.

59: Do you like the snow?

In the beginning of winter, I get excited when I see it. I always like watching snow, it’s really relaxing.

60: Do you wanna get married?

Probably, same thing with the kids thing. It just doesn’t feel like it’d happen to me right now.

61: Is it cute when a boy/girl calls you baby?

It’s weird since I’ve never had anyone call me that, so it’s weird from an outside perspective, but I imagine it could be cute in the moment.

62: What makes you happy?

Unfiltered thoughts, probably. I feel very trapped when I have to think too much about what I can and can’t say. I like conversations when you can just say whatever’s on your mind.

63: Would you change your name?

Probably not. I’ve thought about it, but I don’t think I could respond to anything other than Felix Myers.

64: Would it be hard to kiss the last person you kissed?

In other’s perspective, I imagine if you like the person then no, if things ended badly or it was a mistake or something, then probably not. But I wouldn’t know.

65: Your best friend of the opposite sex likes you, what do you do?

God, it’d be weird, but I wouldn’t want it to change our friendship. She means too much to me to lose just because feelings have developed.

66: Do you have a friend of the opposite sex who you can act your complete self around?

It’s always been Reese, as close as I can be.

67: Who was the last person of the opposite sex you talked to?

Reese. About the cat.

68: Who’s the last person you had a deep conversation with?

Kenneth, he’s the only person I can talk about anything and everything with and not feel weird about it.

69: Do you believe in soulmates?

It’s definitely complicated. Not entirely but I can’t rule it out.

70: Is there anyone you would die for?

In no particular order, probably Liv, Reese, Kenneth, or Auggie. Or any given rescue dog, probably.

[twopoppies]

I got a fic request from one of my followers to give her a list of Larry fics with “a touch of art, medicine, and/or magical creatures". 

It got awfully long mostly because I love magic fics, so I’ll put the recs under the cut. Also, I’m ashamed by how few Medical fics I’ve read! 🙈 Anyway, I hope you find some you enjoy!

Magical Creatures

May We Stay Lost On Our Way Home by loadedgunn

Harry thought he had a handle on things. He hasn’t gotten papped in over a month, even the most zealous of fans have given up on finding his location, the Fortress is starting to look hospitable, and Niall just learned how to make shrimp bisque. Even having a massive crush on a gorgeous mythical woodland creature was working out for him.

Most of the time.

On March 31st, Harry Styles disappears. Though many speculate, only two people know where to find him: Niall, his former guitarist, and Zayn, who follows where Niall leads.

The fact the biggest boy band in the world broke up two weeks earlier might be related to the disappearance. The fact Harry meets a fairy named Louis in the woods is a whole other matter.

(Liam is a centaur.)

Through Eerie Chaos by MediaWhore @mediawhorefics

For as long as anyone can remember, Old Hillsbridge Manor has always been believed to be haunted. Everyone in the village agrees and keeps a respectful, fearful, distance. New in town after a bad breakup and an internship that led to disappointment rather than a permanent job, Harry Styles figures taking pictures of the decrepit building could be a great new creative project. Or at least a much-needed distraction while he searches for a job and crashes at his parents’ new house. No one warned him about the apparitions though; about the music, the laughter, the people who flicker and vanish when you call after them, the echoes of a past that should be long gone… Harry has never believed in spirits but even he can admit that there’s something weird going on. What starts as mere curiosity evolves into a full-blown investigation and soon enough, Harry finds himself making friends with an aristocrat from the 1920s and struggling with finding the best way to tell him that he’s dead.

The Ghost Hunter AU where Niall lives to prove ghosts are real, Zayn is a skeptical librarian and Harry gets caught up in a century-old mystery and catches feeling in the process.

Coax The Cold by MediaWhore @mediawhorefics

England, 1897.

English Professor Louis Tomlinson’s passion for the occult has been a source of mockery and derision for most of his life. When he hears whispers of a travelling freak show newly established in London claiming the existence of a monstrous sea hybrid, half-man, half-fish, Louis sees it as his ticket to credibility amongst his peers. The summer he spends undercover working on the show, however, gives him much more than that.

The Devil You Know by Awriterwrites @a-writerwrites

Harry walked slowly to the door, an eerie sense of déjà vu rolling over him. “Who is it?” he called out through the varnished maple.

“Can Harry come out to play?” The voice on the other side of the door was light and airy, musical, with a raspy edge.

Louis.

Harry felt his pulse race a little before he found words. “Harry’s not home right now.” He smirked.

There was a pause and then a light tap-tap-tap on the door, right at Harry’s ear. “Bullshit.”

**** Louis is a vampire. Harry is probably too curious for his own good.

Waiting On You by emma1234 @lads-laddylads

“Vampires,” Louis says with disgust, glaring over at the vampire who is noisily slurping from the woman’s neck nearby.

Zayn gives the neat fang marks on Louis’ neck a meaningful look.

“Can’t live with them, can’t live without them,” Louis finishes, ignoring Zayn when he rolls his eyes.

Louis takes a long sip of his milkshake, presses his fingers against the marks on his neck, and definitely doesn’t think about the vampire who left them there. 

love is divine by stylinsoncity ( @alienproof )

Being a witch doesn't help when it comes to unrequited love.

as we move slowly by snsk

"You know what color your wings are?" Harry asked conversationally, on his stomach at the tattoo parlor, while Louis played absentmindedly with one dangling hand and flipped through some designs.

// Alternatively: Louis grows wings. Harry is the only one who can see them.

Domestic Monsters (series) by @g-uttertrash

Harry is a witch from a long line of power, an ancient line that’s one of the strongest left alive in their hemisphere. He can cast spells without a word if need be, fly on a broomstick, and has a black cat (a kitten, really) named Felix that is his animal familiar. He can shape galaxies in his cupped hands and can destroy them just as easily. He can choose exactly how to use his power, for encouragement and support, or for more nefarious causes if he wishes to.

And as fate would have it, he’s scared of haunted houses.

(Harry is a witch who carries around a stuffed pumpkin, Louis is a vampire with too much time on his hands, and their best mates Zayn & Niall aren't exactly what they seem...

I Will Never Rust by stylez

What was Harry meant to say? Yes Louis, I’d date you. I want to make you come repeatedly so that must mean I have a thing for you yeah? No. Because it doesn’t mean that, because Harry refuses to get attached to anyone he wants to fuck.

or

Harry wants to suck more than just Louis’ blood but Louis refuses to sleep with Count Dickula.

Among The Humans by @the-cheshire-pussy-cat

A gothic, modern day vampire romance between a young human named Louis Tomlinson, and Harry Styles, ancient vampire and gentleman.

Creatures of the night come with more trouble than they wish to make it seem.

finding you was hard (but loving you is easy) by togetherwecouldbealright

An incredibly shameless vampire!AU filled with stupid jokes, endless dates, flappy bird, a bro man dude pal sleepover thing and there also might be some sex in strange places.

Also known as the one where everyone is a vampire, Louis is oblivious and somewhere along the way it becomes a bit too much like Twilight.

Then a string of thoughts make themselves clear in Louis’ head. First, Harry is a vampire. Second, Louis is a dumbass. Third, Louis is also unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him. Fourth, he’s pretty sure he just quoted the back of the Twilight book.

We’ve got the world in our hands by sarcasticfluentry

A mutants/superpowers AU. Louis and his friends attend the Cowell Institute for General Education and Mutant Training in London; when Louis meets Harry, the newest student at the Cowell Institute, he immediately recruits Harry to help play matchmaker for his friend Zayn. Harry and Louis are so caught up in meddling in Zayn's love life, though, that they don't notice that their own friendship is progressing into something more. Meanwhile, an ominous threat up north grows slowly until suddenly, no mutant - or human - is safe.

Magic

because I don’t know that many magical creatures fics, but these ones are magical and are so good as well!

ain’t had none like you in a while by istajmaal

It kind of sucks that instead of using time travel to go back and kill Hitler, Simon Cowell chooses to use it to get his clients to advise younger versions of themselves. Sixteen-year-old Harry's not bitter, it's just that his relationship with Louis was complicated enough before he saw him with hot dad hair.

One day to believe in you by mediaville

A mysterious force compels Louis to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Even when it's really inconvenient.

Harry blinks and has the nerve to look surprised. "You think about me when you get off?"

"Yes," Louis says. He wonders how hard he'd need to punch himself in the face to knock himself out.

"Often?"

"Yes, Christ, Harry," Louis groans. "Probably eight times a week for going on six years now. On average, you know. More when we were touring, less when I've been visiting family. Anything else you'd like to know?"

the bearded stranger by @juliusschmidt​

Harry wakes up to a bearded stranger in his bed.

(Make You Want To) Scream by @lululawrence​

While Louis' left hand plays with his nipple, his right reaches down and wraps around his dick and that's when he really knows something is wrong.

The dick in his hand does not feel like his own.

like a boomerang by @youwill​

AU in which Harry gets trapped in a lift, Louis gets stuck in a Wednesday, and it's always February 2nd. Until it isn't.

I’ll Know My Name As It’s Called Again by pukeandcry

Louis wakes up in Harry's body. This is a problem for several reasons.

the impossible now by stylinsoncity @alienproof​

A wish on Christmas Eve sends Louis to an alternate dimension where Harry is a member of One Direction.

Come Along With Me by darkofthenights @jimmytfallon​

"A little magic can take you a long way." — Roald Dahl or An AU where Harry is a magician and Louis doesn't believe in such a thing.

Fugue by iwillpaintasongforlou

Harry falls asleep a 17 year-old who lives in Cheshire and is probably rockstar Louis Tomlinson's biggest fan. He wakes up 24 with a wedding ring on his finger, two kids, and Louis Tomlinson attempting to wake him up with a blow job. The doctor calls it organic retrograde amnesia, says he might never get back the last seven years of his life. The only thing that feels the same is how he feels when Louis touches him, and maybe that's enough to make him fall in love all over again.

You Are The Blood by sarcasticfluentry

A seventh-year Hogwarts AU in which Niall gets all the girls, Liam goes on a journey of self-discovery, Zayn falls in love, Harry wants something more, and Louis tries to figure out once and for all why he, a Muggleborn, was sorted into Slytherin.

Temporary Tattoos, Hotel Hearts, Horizon Homes by Teumessian

Louis is just 18 and ends up in 2015 for one day at Harry’s request, one day to make sure his spirit is strong and hopeful enough to take him to the X Factor and end him up where he’s supposed to be. Aka, the one where Harry makes sure Louis knows how amazing he is.

my heart is breathing for this moment in time by usedtothebeach

When Louis first saw Harry at the 2010 X Factor Auditions, he thought he was watching a peculiarly special stranger. But Harry has known Louis ever since he was five years old.

Because Louis has a rare genetic disorder that causes him to Time Travel to important moments in his past and in his future - and to Harry, always to Harry. When they're put into a band together, it seems like everything Harry has been waiting and wishing for has finally come true. Except for the small fact that Louis doesn't know that Harry is in love with him- that Harry's always been in love with him. Fate, it would seem, is just getting started.

A story about growing up and growing together, and the impossible love that makes it all worthwhile.

feel the chemicals burn in my bloodstream by togetherwecouldbealright

“Alright, alright. No need to bite,” Harry says, holding his hands above his head in a general gesture of surrender.

Louis quirks an eyebrow and his foot nudges Harry’s as he moves to sit straight. “If that’s what you think biting is, you’ve got another thing coming, Styles.”

Harry blinks at him before he feels his face flush and inside the marrows of his bones there’s pulses of heat, pulses of fire spreading through him. “Is that a threat, your Highness?”

“That’s a promise,” Louis answers just as the car halts to a stop. “One I intend to keep.”

Harry is a journalist with a lot of secrets and Louis is the future king of the United Kingdom; they live together for 60 days.

Art 

I included one where the art involved is writing/poetry because the fic in question does such a lovely job of discussing art as a concept that I just couldn’t resist...but otherwise, I only included ones where the art referenced is painting/drawing etc. I’m sad that I don’t know more!

Little Technicolor Things by @tekhnicolor

Louis is a poor writer and recent university graduate, depressed, anxious, and living in London when he meets Harry, an artist with a secret who likes to paint sunrises and pretty boys from California.

I would name the stars for you (I would take you there) by impetuous

"Harry Styles is a poem waiting to happen, Louis thinks, eyes tracing peach flesh and the undercurrent of blue veins. He wants to write him all down, to capture the image of green eyes and red lips and skinny wrists... dark ink spilled across the page."

Or a vaguely Notting Hill-like AU (or that made for TV Disney movie Starstruck if you’ve seen it… no? Just me?) starring popstar!Harry and bookkeeper/soulful poet!Louis; and including guest appearances by Fate, a wise elderly aristocrat, and lots and lots of pining.

Starry, Starry Night by xxSterre (WIP)

Artist AU based on a tumblr prompt by youngandmadeof.

AU where Harry’s getting a degree in fine arts but he’s always envied street artists their freedom and the thrill coming from illegal activity. One day, he notices a particular graffiti and decides to paint into it. Louis does graffiti. One day, somebody starts messing with his murals.

Medicine

why do I only know one?

Lonesome When You Go by 13ways @13ways-of-looking

Harry, Louis, Niall, and Liam are surgeons-in-training at the most prestigious program in the United States.

More than that, Harry and Louis have a history unknown to the others, a history that involves dogs and God, anatomy lessons, food fights, vinyl jazz records, and one hell of an oyster tour.

A story of trust and friendship, of poetry and rock and roll, pink-tinged dawns and the darkest nights.

A tale of portraits, tattoos, and everlasting love.

Edit: How did I forget you @afirethatcannotdie?

Do Not Go Gentle 

“This is all a game to you, isn’t it? Well, it’s not for me. This is a real life or death situation,” Louis says, spitting the words at him. “And I just don’t think you’re cut out for it.”

For a moment, they stare at each other in complete silence. Harry can feel his blood thrumming between his ears, can see Louis glaring at him, feels red-hot anger. And then all he feels, oppressively and desperately, is lust.

Suddenly Louis is surging up to him to press his lips against Harry’s. Harry walks the two of them backwards, pressing Louis back against the door. Louis oomphs in surprise and brings his hands under Harry’s scrub top, scratching at his lower back.

“Lock — oh — lock the… fucking door,” Louis mutters.

When Harry Styles starts his first day as a surgical intern, he expects a lot of things: to treat patients, to observe a surgery, to feel a bit overwhelmed. What he definitely doesn't expect, however, is that the handsome guy he kicked out of his bed this morning is also an intern.

A Grey’s Anatomy AU where tensions are high, Harry and Louis are hooking up in secret, and no one has time for love. Or do they?

Documentation of my latest shroom trip (yesterday, 11/10/17)

I have been having a really weird spell the past few weeks.  NO motivation to do much, I signed my offer with EY, and all in all just was feeling blah. Cramps, moodiness, feeling lonely, etc. Insomnia the night before.

Finished my FR-B exam, and Tyler cancelled our meeting (freaking again), and said he was moving in another direction-ish.  Feeling bummed. 

Took 2 mushrooms, then a small third, and decided to watch a movie and veg out with the cats on the couch. 

Realized a little through Benjamin Button that it was more than I expected - the screen was literally my life. I was part of the couch, Felix was on my chest sleeping - keeping me sane and grounded.  The characters looked so odd, and piece-like.  Brad Pitt’s older selves - I could see all the make-up and prosthetics put on his face!  And the woman, she was soooo pale, and beautiful, but like too smooth and all.  She was perfection. Benjamin’s dad was freaking horrifying and scary, the antithesis of aging and time. UGH some parts of the movie were freaky and so scary, I remember looking at my phone (baba was asking me about stuff from Costco) and I could barely hold it, that and the screen moved a lot - shaky vision and hands.  Easily distracted. I remember thinking the feeling of crying was really odd, like so much pressure coming into your face, and aching in my eyes..

So totally engrossed with the feelings the movie showed, I cried, then laughed then cried as if nothing happened.  Made me really think about how time was moving so quickly, and freaked out a little. And I freaked out about A and I, that we didn’t have what they had. and that was depressing...

Movie ended, decided taking a shower was best. Had some lemon water, yum. Started watching Up In the Air, then showered - so warm, so happy, thinking about things, amazed at how I am so lucky to have a shower head and water and warm water, and soap and stuff. I also distinctly remember realizing that I can do whatever I want, because I always plan ahead.  Like, showering, then putting on lotion, thinking of what to eat/watch, etc. I can do that with academics, with business stuff, it’s because I know how to plan my day out, so I can plan it out to include other things to build towards.

Couldn’t wear my old outfit since I was “new” and “clean” and wearing the older clothes symbolized me going back to my old self.  Ate some, or tried.  Watched movie, it was slowly wearing off.  Texting A a little, didn’t feel so into it. It was a screen, not a person.

Finished movie, watching other stuff(?)  Doing more cooking during the movie, was hungry - sorta, but mostly because it was late and I hadn’t eaten much. Bottomless pit. Thinking more about things. Easily distracted by what was on TV.  Ate a lot, but felt like more vegetarian than anything.  Bottomless pit of hunger.  Stayed up late, watching the Office and stuff.  

I definitely felt more reflective of that experience today, and deeper with my thoughts.  More logical, and forgiving of myself.  Just, like, an outsiders perspective on some things going on, and yeah.  Feeling more motivated, and “getting on with things” than before. Don’t get me wrong I’m still procrastinating some things, but at least I opened up Squarespace for the first time in a week or two, and a working towards my NLF thing. And got thru FR-B lecture video, so that’s a win!!

I haven’t been feeling like talking with A though. I think part of me realizes that my happiness is my own - something I sort of picked up from Benjamin Button, the movie.  They were happy, and I don’t think I feel that same happiness with A. I know it’s a movie, but still - there’s some truth to what I’m saying and feeling. 

Thinking about him and what our future will be like is weird, and I am not inclined to think about it. Sounds cold..
