MASTERLIST

Watching the podium was a dream of yours and now you have made it come true. You heard the anthems for the first time in person. All of the tifosis screaming it out. Charles smiled so proud along with Carlos and Max. You were really intrigued by Max’s character and you hope someday you could meet him. That was another dream of yours. Like Franco said: a tiny human filled with so many crazy dreams. Yeah, he joked about it all the time because you have this dreamy personality but he loves you for that. His so logical and terrenal, he loves that you add the daydreaming he most of the time lacks. That’s why your besties, you understand anc complement each other.

When the podium party ended and people started to spread out into different directions, you decided to call Franco to see where he was at. But he didn’t respond. You felt now again embarrassed like when you bumped into Lando fucking the most handsome cute and hot persona you’ve ever seen Norris and born his phone. You felt so stupid. You forgot your friend is now a driver here and probably doesn’t have time to answer your checking calls. So you decided to get back to the paddock and headed to Williams garage. You didn’t wanna be lost so you concentrated on finding your franquito. Fortunately some guys from the team told you he was at a meeting so you decided to look for Lily.

You found her at a table with another girl and didn’t want to interrupt but you also didn’t want to be alone.

“Hey… hi. Sorry to interrupt girls. I was lost for a moment I’m happy to find you Lily” you said shyly and clearly sorry for making the two beautiful women stop talking.

“Y/n! Oh no, there’s no problem honey. I was telling Alexa about you. So perfect timing!” She said sweet and made you smile widely. She introduced you to Alex, Charles Leclerc’s girlfriend. She was so stunning in person. And also really sweet. Lily made you part of their conversation and your stayed with them until Franco was free to get back to the hotel.

Lando was on a meeting with the team he really didn’t want to be in. He wasn’t in the mood to listen to all of that right now. Oscar knew about it and tried to pay attention so at least one of them had the important information and the big men knew. Lando couldn’t stop thinking about you smile and your rosé cheeks. And what you said to him. He also was anxious about the fact you’d never replied. Nor add him to contacts. He wanted to see your profile picture. He wanted to talk to you right now but he had to be here doing driver things. He never tends to be distracted. But he couldn’t help it. You were too gorgeous to not overthink about the whole interaction you had.

When the meeting ended Lando and Oscar went to the mc claren building to get change and eat something before heading to the hotel and rest. They didn’t want to do much. It was a frustrating race and weren't in the mood to go celebrate like some of the boys will do. Maybe he’ll watch Cars and fall asleep before it finishes. It was his comfort plan to be honest.

You and the girls order something to eat at the Williams building. You couldn’t stop thinking about the fact you broke Lando’s phone and that you could have stayed with him. You didn’t know why you felt like that. Like you did something wrong and added to the phone breaking. You started playing around with your phone once Lily and Alex started talking about things you really didn’t understand. But the only thing you learnt is that Alex lives in Monaco and there people speak French and you didn’t know about that. That’s when you see his messages. You blushed by reading them. You got so nervous. Lando was flirting with you that was obvious but you couldn’t believe he was flirting with you like why? Out of all the girls that come to see races, why you? You bit your lip replying.

‘Oh hola pretty boy. Sorry I didn’t see it till now. And sorry again for breaking your phone. Funny both phones still work somehow jaja’

You didn’t know how to approach and English man. Of course you flirted with guys before but you know, with the same culture and slang and social context. This is so different. You didn’t want to come off as rude or whatever.

‘How brave you are to give your heart to unknown person 👀’

You didn’t know if that was actually considered a tease but you were trying at least.

You jumped scared when Franco out of nowhere hugged you from behind almost screaming in your head.

“Al fin te encuentro amiguita. En qué andas? Cambiándome por gente linda y famosa?” (He said hi and what you were doing “charging me for more pretty and richer people?”) that made you laugh and roll your eyes.

“Ojalá. Lamentablemente me tocó ser tu amiga y no puedo salir” you joked about how unfortunately you were his friend and you couldn’t run away. That made him room his eyes. He joined the conversation and met Alex as well. You talked for a few more minutes till Alex Albon came back and so we started going down the stairs all together. Alex headed to the Ferrari building and another girl said bye to Lily and Alex. She said it was Carlos’ girlfriend Rebecca. All of them were so beautiful. You were in love.

You and Franco were chatting about what the meeting was all about when you heard someone scream from afar.

“Wait guys! Franco! Alex! Y/n!” When you all turned you found lando coming to you. Franco looked at you with one brow raised, strange about how Lando knew his best friend’s name. “Sorry guys, I just wanted to say goodbye. We’re not gonna see each other until Mexico” he said weirdly and nervously . That wasn’t the usual Franco thought. He looked at Alex who looked at him the same. Lily looked at you with question marks on her eyes. You smiled at Lando. Your heart is racing. He gave everyone a hug. And you were last. You didn’t know what to do in this situation. You didn’t understand what he was doing. When he hugged you a paper fell on the floor. So when you two splitted he picked up the little paper.

“Here you go” he said and handed it to you so you took it suspicious. “Alright bye guys! Take care!” He waved, running again into the orphanage building. You saved the paper on your jeans and played it cool.

“Okay that was weird and nice at the same time” Franco said, making all of you giggle.

(…)

After leaving Franco at his room and spending some time with him just chatting and drinking mate, you decided to come to your room to rest as well. All of the feelings you felt have left you exhausted. You were so happy for franco. So proud. You could feel your heart explode.

You had a shower. You needed to take out all of the weight of the day from your body. Relax for a while. By yourself listening to a piano playlist you found on Spotify. Dark academia theme. You loved it. After a few minutes you were packing and preparing all of your stuff because tomorrow you headed to Mexico. You were gonna be with franco until the Brazil race. And then going back home to Argentina.

When you grabbed your jeans, the ones you wore today, you remembered the paper piece lando handed to you. You know it wasn’t yours but your intuition just followed along with his play. You unfolded it and smiled.

‘Wanna chill out and watch cars for a while?’

That’s what the paper said and under the question was his hotel and room number. He didn’t answer your messages. And you thought this was like the most romantic thing. Like not using phones and sneaking into hotels. And keeping it a secret. Like a wattpad story you used to read when you were a kid about Niall Horan. Or maybe are you just crazy? Whatever.

You hesitated whether to go or not by the time it was. But you had nothing to lose. He offered and maybe this one gonna be it. Maybe you wouldn’t meet Lando Norris like this or any other way ever again so.

You decided to take some candies you had in your bag and that was it. You felt really bad about not having anything else to take. Google maps indicated his hotel was the one next to the one you were so that was a coincidence that wasn’t in your bung card. You didn’t think much about it and just went straight to his room.

When you got to it you knocked on the door carefully. If he was asleep you didn’t want to wake him up.

Fortunately a few seconds later we opened the door with a sleepy smile and very surprised.

“I thought you wouldn’t come” he said letting you in. You giggled a little.

“Surprise! I’m not losing my chances here honey” you said teasing him and saw how he blushed closing the door.

“Is that a thing in Argentina like beating hot and a teaser?” He asked me to open his mini bar, take out two water bottles and hand one to you with a smile.

“Well I think it is, you know. We are all pretty charming” you said, taking the water and string in his bed. You saw the tv screen displaying the cars movie already in the middle of the story. You acted offended.

“So you invited me to watch cars but decided to watch it all alone?” You said arching a brow funny. He looked exposed and stood in front of the tv.

“Actually that was a trap because no one says no to cars cause it’s a great movie but I invited you to look at me” he said posing awkwardly making you giggle.

“Alright I’ll enjoy the view then” you said grinning.

You just enjoyed time together by chatting about Argentina and London and a few words. And trivial stuff but you laughed so much. He is so funny and laughed at all of your jokes. Like you matched each other’s energy. Or crazy.

It was time for you to go back to your hotel because it was already 2 am and packing wasn’t done. Neither you nor Lando had packed everything for tomorrow's flight.

“Would I see you around then? It was really nice talking to you” he said on the door looking down at you with sleepy puppies eyes. You were so cute and fun. He felt the butterflies. You made him so nervous. Giggling and blushing like a teenager. You smiled at him. You were the most precious thing he has ever seen.

You nodded “of course. I’ll be with Franco until the Brazil race. That’s when I go back to Argentina sadly. But maybe I’ll travel again for Abu Dhabi” you said softly, looking at him. God he was so beautiful. He nodded in response.

Silence took place between you two for a few seconds. You decided to end it by giving him a kiss on his cheek. “See you around landito, te me cuidas chico lindo” you said just like how you taught him earlier a little funny and waved at him heading to the elevator. He waved at you. His face red.

Was this the start of something new?

(…)

‘You looked beautiful in that orange hoodie you wore today’ he texted.

‘You only say that it’s because it’s papaya. Do you want me to be a papaya? You’ll have to work your ass off. I’m team Williams until franco gets a seat in another team’ you texted.

‘I’m on it darling. Get ready’ he texted.

‘Oh I’ve been ready my whole life for this moment’ you texted.

‘😍😍😍😍’ he texted.

‘👀👀👀👀’ you texted.

[forgettable-au]

How did you envision 'slipping through my fingers' to work with Forgettable?? I LOVE LOVE LOVE that song and when i make the animatic thing of it I REALLY wanna do it justice

I might start rambling about this so I'll add a keep reading lol

OKAY SO I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THAT SONG FOR THIS AU FOR SOOOOOO LONG

Gonna use this as my chance to talk about it lol

Okay so, it's definitely from Sans POV!

The very first part could be about leaving for work, Wingdings is probably working from very early in the morning! Sans takes it more easy

and like "The feeling that I'm losing her forever. And without really entering her world" OH MY GOD THAT PART

IT WORKS SO WELL

He actually is losing him forever soon

Sans still doesn't fully understand what Wingdings thinks, which must be frustrating

"Slipping through my finger all the time" OUGHHH HE IS SLIPPING THROUGH HIS FINGERS

AND THEN "each time I think I'm close to knowing. She keeps on growing" Sans might think he's close to comprehending things, but Wingdings keeps changing and surprising him and it's at a faster pace everytime (until he's changed so much he's like a different person...and also at some point he becomes Papyrus, that also happens)

YOU GUYS HAVE TO UNDERSTAND,,, THEY'RE THE SAME AGE BUT SANS REALLY DOES SEE WINGDINGS AS HIS YOUNGER BROTHER,,,

I mean, he's always been taking care of him, helping him communicate, sticking with him through school, college, the lab

The fact that Dings is so far away from his grasp/understanding is AUGH

Why did I make this AU so self-indulgent, it is SO angsty in just the way that hits me hard LMAO Idk as someone with a little sibling, brother!Gaster hurts me more than father!Gaster

You've heard about monsters getting a sense of deja vu when seeing the human

Now ...what about Sans getting a sense of premonition about what's gonna happen?

This part would definitely be about their wish to be on the surface someday and all the other dreams they had

Some of them they did (getting that job at the lab), but most they didn't (seeing the real stars)

I envision this part as the last happy thing that happened before the incident! A little group photo! Wish you could freeze the picture? Wish things could stay this way forever? WELL, I'M SORRY BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN!

Time is about to play a very silly game! (also this is so fitting with Gaster doing weird time things, maybe he is the funny tricks of time)

I obviously can't say what the incident is or how it plays out... because... that would be a huge spoiler... to the people reading this, you'll need to use your imagination!

Then there's the whole guitar part! Love that part! I imagine in the animatic I'm gonna make about this someday that there will be a shot of Sans' arm trying to reach one last time... sigh... The day I finally make this animatic it will be amazing...

But I really can't rn because spoilers! THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU GUYS CAN'T TRY TO DO ONE I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT

Then we can have two, or more idk

OKAY! That last part of the song mirrors the first part of the song!

But this time!!!!! IT'S PAPYRUS!!! Leaving early In the morning for royal guard duties :D gotta calibrate those puzzles early!

AND THAT'S IT!!!!! obviously avoiding spoilers! but OH MY GOD

I SWEAR THIS SONG WAS ONE OF THE SONG THAT INSPIRED ME TO MAKE THIS AN ACTUAL COMIC BECAUSE I NEEDED TO MAKE THAT ANIMATIC AND FOR PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND UJFIEF

What a girl is willing to do just so people can understand her silly angst animatic c: a whole comic

[julia-beatrice]

I am not usually the one to make statements with my art but here we go

Growing up as a Polish girl, I felt largely misrepresented in media. There would always be movies taking place in countries like France, UK, US.... seeing no sign of slavic culture in film and cartoons (maybe except Russia) made me feel like we don't exist. However, since I am a white european I could still identify with the characters I watch quite easily. But there are people and cultures in this world that media completely looks past, and they don't have the luxury of at least looking like what we mostly see on TV. Therefore I want to put my interests in what's foreign to me with my drawing style that reminds people of Disney and create something of a tribute to misrepresented cultures. A sort of "What if there were full length animated movies that have characters of unique backgrounds"

The girl in the picture is a native Australian. I did some reading and watching and I must say that I am very intrigued by the concept of dream-time (It kinda scares me but that just adds to the intrigue 😂). I love how unique the look of native Australians is and the sound of didgeridoo is something very mysthical. Makes me wanna visit Australia someday. I have new drawings planned already but doggust is coming so we'll see how it goes

Oh and also what else pushed me to make this idea are a couple drawings of an artist named Willow S Linda.

i try to be cool.

if i never say a word, does it make it less true?

i feel the time go.

i fear the unknown.

it's getting so old.

all of my anxieties are filling up my diaries.

the water ran cold.

there's so much i don't know.

i think i gotta go.

you see green and don't think about me.

BAD BANDIT

i've been lonely for awhile now.

i'm tired of this ghost town.

[ she ] looks pretty on [ her ] poster.

i'm thinking i could hold [ her ].

i want you on my body.

won't you face it?

you wanna make or break it.

you wanna feel me naked.

i'll show you how to take it.

count your blessings when the devil ain't got nowhere to go.

maybe i'm bratty.

i taught that [ man ] a lesson.

[ he ] was charming and i loved [ him ].

[ his ] urges were disgusting.

i bed [ him ] down to nothing.

that little [ lady ] wanted love.

it's such a damn shame.

you better run, babe.

[ she's ] taking aim.

[ she ] promised me [ her ] best.

i could see forever in [ her ] golden eyes.

my baby told me lies.

i swear i'm gonna die.

but i ain't the one biting the dust tonight.

i swear i'm gonna miss [ her ] for the rest of my days.

i still hear [ her ] voice.

BET YOU'LL GET OFF ON THIS

maybe in another year you might be different.

i'd rather not admit how many years i've been insisting.

you showed me your true colors.

you used to be the prettiest thing i'd ever seen.

what you said to me last sunday was disgusting.

i don't need to look at you to know you feel nothing.

you feel nothing.

maybe you like it better when i'm cool.

i don't give a shit.

did you really have to be so cruel?

all i ever did was try to love you.

i don't know who you are.

i saw the façade slip, and it was alarming.

i'm left with confusion.

how did you not ever learn to be human?

what did i expect?

you never grew up.

you think you're so deep, but you're so out of touch.

[ Natalie ] was right when [ she ] said that you were heartless.

i don't ever want you to touch me again.

i really can't stand the way you talk about your [ girlfriend ].

bet it hurts to know i'm no longer your forever.

i won't hold my breath, but i hope you get better.

i don't wanna belittle my love.

all we ever did was try to love you.

Love and Deepspace Matchup Trade with @imjustabeanie

Rafayel!!!

I think Rafayel is the one out of all the boys to best be able to match with your personality.

He has the sass and wit to banter with you but also the persistence to pursue you.

Even if you can be a bit emotionally distant sometimes, he doesn’t mind. He may be a bit pouty sometimes but ultimately understands.

Yall flirt with each other so much and yet can give the most creative insults. The best kind of love imo.

He’ll paint pictures of beautiful galaxies for you and use his ability to make it feel like you’re there amongst the stars.

When the paparazzi is bothering him you don’t take their shit. You absolutely throw hands with them (verbally dnt wanna get arrested for assault) and they scurry away and he finds it the hottest thing ever please marry him.

You guys are each other’s bad influence. One of yall will suggest a prank and the other will encourage it and maybe even add their own ideas. Yall are such enablers Thomas has to keep yall in line. (Man is so tired)

Rafayel understands that you’re not the most emotionally vulnerable person.

He won’t stop trying to get to know you better, but he understands when not to press too much and to leave it be.

He just wants you to understand he is here for you if you ever need to talk, to let it out to someone.

He also keeps your perfectionist tendencies in check. He understands wanting to see something till the end, but he makes sure that you’ll at least eat, drink, and rest.

Rafayel does not sugar coat things. He will give you the straight truth on everything and anything.

He doesn’t always understand how ambitious you are, but nonetheless he wants to help you succeed and fulfill your dreams

He loves that you have such an interest in the ocean as much as he does. Maybe someday he’ll show you a side to the ocean that others have never seen before

If you give permission, you’ll become his muse. He wants to paint you as much as possible until you see yourself the same way he does

Speaking of sometimes he’ll look to your creativity when he’s stuck on a painting

He loves giving you gifts and spoiling you. Despite being a rich artist he doesn’t spend much on himself unless it’s related to his art so who better to spend it on than you.

He also loves getting your gifts and is lowkey a spoiled brat because of it but dw he’s just kidding…probably

Man is v touchy and cuddly. Sure he’ll give you your space until you’re ready, but after that all bets are off. So. Much. touching.

There will rarely be a moment where this man does not have some form of himself touching you.

As an artist he is intuitive when it comes to emotions. He knows you better than you know yourself. He makes sure that you know and accept yourself and your feelings. He lets you know that it’s ok to be vulnerable sometimes and that you can lean on him if you ever need to be soft.

From the first moment you saw Steve you realized that he was someone special. Steve was your refuge amid a chaotic world, a place where you felt safe and loved and he always had time for you.

That's why you didn't hesitate to follow him when he had to flee when he became a fugitive for not signing the Accords, even though you didn't sign either.

As the months passed, life began to resume a rhythm of normalcy or a new normal for you.

Early 2017

You lived in a house on the outskirts of the city, a quiet place, you needed that quiet. The news of your pregnancy was a mixture of surprise and joy. After all, you had been through, it felt like a miracle. Steve was thrilled, though also a little nervous.

And then Sarah arrived.

When Sarah was born, right away you noticed she had her father's blue eyes and your smile, you knew it was all worth it.

Sarah became the center of your world, and seeing Steve with her filled your heart with indescribable happiness.

2018

When Thanos' snap happened, you disappeared in the blink of an eye. The feeling was indescribable, but your greatest terror was the thought of what was going to happen to your daughter, even though you didn't get to see it.

As soon as he could, Steve returned home, he didn't know what scene he would encounter, he needed to know if it had affected them too.

The only thing he found was Sarah crying in her pen, but no trace of you.

For five long years, Steve lived without you, keeping the hope that someday you would come back and see Sarah grow up too, he always tried to record the most important things about his daughter, so you could see it too when you came back.

2023

You woke up in the same place where you disappeared, confused and disoriented. You looked for Sarah everywhere, but you couldn't find her, you felt like you were going crazy until you saw the pictures, and now you felt confused.

Finally, when you managed to get to the place where the Avengers had gathered, you saw it. Steve was there, more tired and scarred by time. When his eyes met yours, everything else disappeared. They ran to each other and hugged tightly as if trying to make up for lost time.

You heard rumors about the possibility of Steve going back in time to be with Peggy. The thought filled you with dread. You didn't want to lose him again.

One night, as you sat on the porch, you plucked up the courage to ask him.

“Steve, is it true that you plan to go back in time with Margaret Carter?”

Steve turned to you, took your hands in his and stared at you.

“There was a time when I thought my place was in the past, with Peggy,” he said. ”But those days are gone. I've lived and lost, and I've found something even more valuable. My home is not in the past,” he continued, leaning closer. My home is you. For five years I lived without you, it was very painful and now that you have returned, there is nothing and no one that will keep me away from you. I love you and I will not let you go.”

Steve Rogers had found his home, and that home was you.

Sarah, now six years old, adored her father and followed his every move.

One afternoon, while you were playing with Sarah in the yard, Steve sat on the porch, watching them with a smile on his face.

“Dad, look what I can do! “Sarah exclaimed, proudly showing off her new ability to pirouette on the lawn.

Steve clapped his hands and stood up to join you, wrapping you both in a tight hug.

“You're amazing, Sarah,” he said with a smile. ”I'm so proud of you.”

That night, after putting Sarah to bed, you lay down next to Steve in the living room.

“You know? “Steve said, breaking the silence. ”I never imagined life could be so perfect. Sometimes it still amazes me how lucky I am.”

You smiled and snuggled closer to him.

“We've been through a lot, Steve. But we'll always be together.”

Steve kissed you on the forehead.

“Yes, together. Always.”

One night, when Sarah was about ten years old, she approached Steve while he was working in the garage.

“Dad, have you ever had to make a really hard decision? “she asked.

Steve put aside the tools and knelt to be at her level.

“Yes, Sarah. I've had to make a lot of tough decisions throughout my life. But every one of them led me here, with you and your mom. And I wouldn't change any of it.”

“Even if it meant not being a superhero?”

Steve smiled and stroked her hair.

“Being your dad is the greatest superpower I've ever had. And it's the only one I need.”

Sarah hugged Steve tightly.

txt as sour

is piper doing one of these for a non-taylor album?! crazy, i know (i wanna space out the taylor 🤌). hope you like this one :)

beomgyu as traitor

"you talked to her when we were together, you gave me your word, but that didn't matter"

i think beomgyu is a kind soul, however, i would not be surprised if he was dating someone else two weeks after you broke up (sorry😭)

his intention wasn't to hurt you, but that doesn't matter because the damage is done! that boy is a traitor!

i can also see him being the one betrayed though :( the whole situation sucks oh my goodness this song is so good

taehyun as driver's license

"can't drive past the places we used to go to, 'cause i still fucking love you"

before i start: this song has so much SOUL & it often gets overlooked now because of how popular it got but it got popular for a reason! it's so good!

anyways...taehyun's a passionate guy. i can see him teaching you how to drive & making memories with you & songs about you only for the two of you to break up 🤧

associating something as common as driving with someone is a dangerous game. don't do it guys. especially if that someone is kang taehyun bc you will never be able to drive again without him popping into your head.

i can also see him singing this?? not thematically but just vocally?? do it taehyun, do it.

yeonjun as good 4 u

"you will never have to hurt the way you know that i do"

seeing yeonjun thriving after you broke up would fucking STING

i said "he wouldn't mean it!" for beomgyu & traitor but like...if you & yeonjun had a messy breakup, he might mean it lmfaooo

&& the thing is, i think yeonjun is considerate, but not enough to put his life on hold for an ex's feelings (whoops)

he would care though. he still wants you to be happy, just not happier than him ;)

hueningkai as jealousy, jealousy

"all i see is what i should be: happier, prettier, jealousy, jealousy"

hueningkai gives me such 🥀💔🙄 energy HEHE i think what i'm trying to say is that he reminds me of teenage angst (txt's concept also definitely adds to that lmfao)

the decision is mostly based on those vibes alone, i don't think he's a jealous guy (plz say you get it 😞🥀)

hueningkai jealousy, jealousy cover when??

soobin as hope ur ok

"don't know if i'll see you again someday, but if you're out there, i hope that you're okay"

spoiler alert i gave this song to jungwon too because i had to repeat a track (only 11 on sour RIP)

soobin seems really thoughtful, so i can picture him being the one thinking about you long after you knew each other

but what i think is more likely is the idea of others thinking of him. he gives of such a warm & approachable energy that i can imagine you'd be touched by even if after simply crossing paths a couple times or sharing a class together

&& those interactions would be enough to make you think about them & him a lot 🥰

I find it hard to assume stuff on your stories since there aren't many gaps to fill, so uhhh

* POE's climax is very different from TEF, not being as much of a Big Final Battle

* speaking of TEF's final fight, like. Atch has got to be a main player there, right? He is for sure the strongest character that's going to go against Cygnus so I feel like he's definitely going to play a major role lmao

* CS at one point involves social media scandals because someone took a picture of Angie holding Hydrangea's hand or something

* TSIAS has a Big Climactic Moment involving Skyble figuring out how stars work (aka finishing their theses) and another one when they actually present their hypothesis together

* one of the magical girls in TOI uses a gun (<- lowkey this is just due to G&G and Madoka lmao)

LMAOOO these are such good ones

Actually yeah POE finale reeks more of a peaceful closure instead of the final face down of the big bad ngl, at least that's the vibes in my head, esp considering Thorn is someone that actually gets redeemed (though he never ends up being forgiven by the cast understandably lmao mf has done enough atrocities, he basically ends up in the empyrean and is collectively "adopted/tamed" by the guardians in a way lol but that's a whole other thing for another day, even this plot point alone is very bare bones and not as thought out as the TEF finale that's been in my mind for at least two years now (the og vibes of TEF finale has been a thing since at least 2020 though a lot has been tweaked since then), cuz POE wasn't rlly my story before winning the custody war lmaoooo and I've only changed shit around last year so there rlly isn't much going, one thing that I do know is that the true finale takes place at the tree graves through, but that's more so the resolution instead of the true climax lol, but beforeeeee the climax there is the coolest scene ever™ in the empyrean that I can't wait to draw someday

YES ATCH IS A MAIN PLAYER SINCE THE 2020 VER LMAO that's the shit, I've talked abt this somewhatttt before but there's a reason that while he was banished for millenia everyone in Cloud Cliffs eventually has to go *oh the shitty guy that ruined everything saved the world somehow so we kinda have to respect him now that's lame but tolerable ig* lol, a lot of it has to do w him being a wielder of the soul crystal rlly, post Jingle drown is when he started rlly questioning his motifs seeing how far Cygnus is willing to go w this entire ordeal and around S5 he starts somewhat helping out the main gang by guiding them to the portal to Cloud Cliffs to stop Cygnus basically lol, it's sorta a set up for his supposed redemption arc, though ofc not everyone forgives him immediately lmao, Homecoming becomes a great excuse to explore the follow up aftermath in detail

Her name is Azalea lmaoooooo dw though I never talk abt them much, but yeah LMAOOO one of the fun points of CS is def the social media aspect, one of my main reasons for developing it is literally to have an excuse to explore allll the Naru social media equivalents that never rlly get utilized in the other adventure heavy stories, there's gonna be Quacker drama™, there's also a new char (or two??? Three???) that I haven't ever spilled for CS anywhere that's gonna add some spice to the existing blorbo dynamics, tldr lesbian gay solidarity you'll see

You see it's interesting cuz before I settled on constellations being a POE lore it was actually gonna be explored via TSIAS, so the climatic scene in TSIAS looks very similar in POE in my head though there's def some differences having tweaked it a bit, but yeah it's def the relevation of them figuring out how stars work lol and again it looks cool as fuck™ and is something I also rlly wanna draw someday, presenting their hypothesis together is literally something I've never thought of in my head even if it's the obvious conclusion lmaoo I'm stealing that

Ngl I haven't rlly planned all the glowlin weapons but Lune def reeks of a gun user so it's very likely that she actually does use a gun lmaooooo, she basically blasts all the horrors out of her way and calls it a day

[dxitydoo]

I have no idea if anyone is interested but

I’m currently attempting to crochet the banner for the Golden Deer house in Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

Here’s how it’s doin so far:

And here’s the official house banner for reference:

I’ve spent 2.5hrs on it so far today and I think I managed to get about ~6-7 rows done in that time? It’s taking a While lol

It’s based off a cross-stitch pattern I bought off someone on Etsy. I don’t cross-stitch (tho honestly I would not be adverse to learning someday lol. I just didn’t wanna buy a whole bunch of new supplies again) so I decided to adapt it for crochet (with… some difficulty. Fun fact: cross-stitch has half-stitches. Crochet doesn’t).

I’m over halfway for the main design (the actual deer part) now. I still have to do the borders (and the bottom border is zig-zagged so… wish me luck tryna work out how tf ima do that lol). I have also yet to go back in and add the face + fur detailing but that’s a problem for future me (have fun me! :) )

(Also yes I am aware that the colours are a lil off. I did my best lol. I’m going for “recognisable” rather than “picture-perfect”).

But anyways. I’m still proud of it :)

Enjoy :)

Dear Sephiroth: (a letter to a fictional character, because why not) #247

Today, I woke up really early - like 5am - in order to drive J to Great Barrington. I imagine that 5am might not seem like it's very early to you, but it's certainly early to me, good grief.

I'm a little bit sad to tell you that it's dark at 5am now. Nights and mornings are chilly, even if afternoons and evenings are still hot. I do enjoy autumn now, but... I'm aware that it's a portent of winter, and I'm really not looking forward to withstanding 6 solid months of being vaguely miserable; Seasonal Affective Disorder is something I gotta contend with, and the fact that the air is an ice cube during the winter (and thus a source of excruciating pain) doesn't help matters.

...Well. On the bright side, I did manage to snag a few good pictures of the moon this morning with J's phone; maybe you'll like them:

The drive to Great Barrington, as per usual, was breathtakingly beautiful, But, because I was the one driving, I couldn't snag any pictures, even of the awesome sunrise that we had this morning. I'm sorry about that. I wish you could have been with us, to see the way that the golden light of the morning splashes upon all the trees and trickles down to the ground. I wish you could have seen the light painting the road in some kind of interesting orange-ish hue, coaxing us towards the promise of more trees, mountains, valleys, and jutted-out rocks.

Even if I feel groggy when I wake early in the morning like this, I still feel grateful that J asks me to make this drive; I wouldn't have any excuses to see such beautiful things, otherwise.

Hey, Sephiroth? What sorts of beautiful things did your time with Genesis, Angeal, and Zack give you excuses to do? In what beautiful ways did they serve as disruptions to your status quo? I wonder. Will you tell me about it sometime?

On the way back home, J and I stopped at Eggcellent, because I wanted him to try the new sago add-on. I'm pleased to report that J found the sago delightful! We also got croffles; J got his usual strawberry croffle, and I got the brown sugar one with ice cream, because I hadn't tried it yet. I was asked which kind of ice cream I wanted to try on it; I had already tried their taro, Thai tea, Earl Gray, and jasmine green flavors, but apparently, they also had a peach oolong that was new, which I hadn't tried yet!

I gotta say, the peach ice cream tasted AMAZING alongside the brown sugar syrup. It was pretty rad. Here are some pictures:

...I really gotta bring you over here sometime, as impossible as that is.

...The rest of today was mostly empty. I guess I'm still dealing with the funk of grieving a recent and very unexpected loss of a close social connection, but today it doesn't feel so unbearable. I did leisure writing, which is a way to pass the time, I suppose. But I still feel... uninspired. I've not had the motivation to create things or even to play video games in some time, and... I guess it kinda scares me.

Well. I go to Great Barrington again tomorrow with J, although not nearly as early. Maybe I should get some rest.

...Though, really, I wish I could ask you about how you're doing and whether or not you're safe. I wanna ask about whether or not you've eaten anything, hydrated, and slept lately. I wanna ask about some of your favorite memories, favorite foods, favorite songs, and more. I wanna ask about what existence in general is like for you. I've seen so many things, but... there's still so much I don't know.

...

...Hey, Sephiroth? Will you stay safe out there? And will you come back to us, so that someday you might answer these silly little questions of mine?

...Suppose I should stop writing now. I wish I had more to say. I wish my brain didn't feel so empty. I wish I could feel my creativity flowing through my eyes, ears, and fingers. But I guess I'm just gonna hafta wait a little while longer...

I love you. Don't die out there. Don't make choices that will lead to you getting killed. Cloud and his friends have plot armor. You don't. Start acting like it, willya? Goddamn.

I'll write again tomorrow.

Your friend, Lumine

HIHI i don't know if you're okay with rarepair/crackship requests, but if you're ok with it, could u draw something lovey dovey with 2trenchcoat (2004 Tord x this guy) please?

If you're going to do my request, please don't add hair horns to 2004 Tord (since in the picture on the left he doesn't has any) and also please don't draw them as teenagers cuz i don't like seeing them being drawn as such (it makes me uncomfortable), but ofc, if you're okay with it! I will totally understand if u wanna decline this because of it!! :]

Anyway, i hope you're having a nice day or night!! ^^

Sorry, that request is difficult for me...

I would like to draw it someday when my drawing gets better!

Tag Game Tagged by @thesweetnessofspring

Thank you for the tag!

Favourite painter: I actually do have a few there's, of course, Van Gogh -- mostly because I watched many documentaries on his life, and he is depicted as someone truly kind. There's also John William Waterhouse for Circe, as well as all his maiden and knight paintings. Davinci for being unhinged. And, I am ashamed to add, Jean-leon Gerome because his paintings promoted orientalism, which is bad, of course, but I also very much love the colors and the way he painted veils and skin.

Favorite writer: oh, this is impossible because it changes constantly. Right now, I would say Katherine Arden, Suzanne Collins (obviously), Tyson Yunkaporta, and S.A. Chakraborty. Each one of these authors has written one or more books that I've truly loved.

Favourite band: Hm. I actually don't know. I used to listen to specific bands more often, but now I listen to music song-by-song. I think the artist that I listen to the most is Natalia Lafourcade and Los Macorinos. They're not technically a band, Natalia does a lot of solo work, but I love them together.

Favourite meal and drink: OHOHO, okay, this one is easy. I could crush my spicy chicken with potatoes and rice any day. I make it with those canned chipotle peppers and lots of sour cream its soooo good. My favorite drink would probably be either earl grey, matcha, or just mango-guava juice. Let's go for mango-guava 😋

oh! and if you wanna eat something else that's amazing try steak in jalapeño cream. OMG it's the best but it's only good if you go to Latin America and eat it there haha. I have my hands to cook it tho😆

Favourite outfit aesthetic: This one is an extremely specific answer. It's probably best described as seductive vampire meets office-inspired-but-not-appropriate meets early 2000's cooky love interest. Do you know what I mean?

Favourite singer: I can't say Natalia sooo other singers that I love are Mon Laferte and Shakira.

Favourite item I own: I really like my bike rn. It came in from the Netherlands even tho I bought it at a local shop that told me they just had to 'ship in' the one in the color I wanted from a nearby location. Turns out the nearby location was fucking Europe.

Favourite perfume: I have 2 perfumes that I actually wear but my fave is by Bvlgari and its au the blanc a.k.a. white tea.

Favourite possession: does this mean like valuable item? Hm... idk. I don't really own valuables. Oh! I have this miniature replica of a Bernini sculpture, the Rape of Prosepina. I got it off amazon if you can believe it! Someday I want to see it in person. Here's a picture:

The Sisters' Secret Seaside Trip: Chapter 7

narumi family trip w h e n

previous part: (chapter 6)

next part: (epilogue)

Sena: …And then, Mona started to splash water at me…

Midori: “Haha, your sis splashed you too, huh? But, more than anything, I’m glad to hear that you had fun.”

Sena: Yup. But it’s all thanks to you, Midori.

Midori: “Eh? Me?”

Sena: I’m really grateful and glad that you told me that “I’m fine just the way I am”.

Sena: Thank you for always cheering me up.

Midori: “...Haha, somehow… I’m thankful that we’re on a call.”

Sena: Eh?

Midori: “I’m sure my face is bright red. I’m so glad you can’t see me right now…”

Sena: …!

Midori: “Ah—... Sorry, Sena! I’ve gotta get back to work.”

Sena: Ah! Okay! Thanks for spending your break with me!

Midori: “Till the day we meet again…”

Sena: Yup! I’ll keep in touch!

Midori: “I’ll be waiting for you.”

Sena: (...Ah… What do I do…?)

Sena: (I really want to see him right now! I love him so much!)

Mona: You were on a call with your boyfriend, weren’t you?

Sena: …! Mona?!

Mona: Mom told me to call you down for dinner. Ah, don’t worry, I wasn’t listening in on your call.

Sena: Ah, um… Mona…

Mona: It’s fine! I had you all to myself when we played at the beach today, so…

Mona: I’m not jealous of him or anything!

Sena: (She’s super duper jealous.)

Sena: …Hehe.

Mona: What? Your food will get cold if you don’t hurry up, y’know?

Sena: Yeah, I’ll be right there!

~~~

Yusuke: I heard that the two of you were working at the same location today. How did it go?

Mona: It went really well! And both of us got to have free time after that! Right?

Sena: Yup, it’s just as she said. Also, I got you a souvenir…

Ayako: A souvenir?

Sena: It’s this photo! I had it sent to my phone… Take a look!

Mona: Whoa… This is…!

Mona: Wasn’t this taken while we were playing together? Where did you get this?

Sena: You know, the photographer I was working with today sent it to me.

Sena: She told me that we looked so picturesque that she found herself taking this picture without fully realising it.

Sena: Of course, this picture won’t be featured in magazines, or any other forms of media, so don’t worry, okay?

Mona: I see—... It’s amazing. Yeah, it’s a great picture, if I do say so myself!

Sena: I know, right?! Considering how it isn’t easy for us to take pictures while we’re not working, I’m so happy to have this!

Yusuke: Yes, it truly is a great photo. I want to use it as the wallpaper for my phone.

Ayako: I’ve got to add it to our family’s photo album! Or, wait, we could print it out and put it up by the front door, right?

Mona: No way, it’d be embarrassing to have a swimsuit photo of us right up by the front door—.

Sena: (I’m glad that all of them liked it.)

Sena: I want to go to the beach with you again next year, Mona.

Ayako: Eh—?! Let your Daddy and me tag along for your next trip too! Let’s go on a trip as a family every once in a while!

Yusuke: Yeah, that sounds good. Let’s all go on a trip once your workloads settle down a little, you two.

Mona: Ehh, if that’s so, I wanna go on an overseas trip, or something!

Yusuke: Looks like the hurdle’s been raised again, huh?

Ayako: Sena, are you going to be eating dinner today?

Sena: Yup! I will!

Sena: (A family trip, huh… I’ve got a lot of work to handle at the moment, but… we’ll definitely go on that trip together someday…!)

[eddies-artofsuffering]

Sesser, IL -> Hawkins, IN

At the first gas station they stop by to fill the tank, Steve lingers in front of the cashier, staring at the chapsticks near the register. The one he’s got is nearly depleted as well, so he ends up buying two: spearmint and cherry. 

“Pick one,” he holds them out in his palms, nudging Eddie on the arm. Absolutely undisturbed by the cashier’s pointed look.

Eddie eyes him suspiciously, but he ends up picking cherry. “And, uh, two packs of Marlboro reds, please,” he says towards the counter. Must be running low already; they did smoke a ton with Murray last night.

Whatever, what’s another couple of dollars? Steve’s paying for the whole thing, dying inside just to picture Eddie puckering his lips, smacking them together as he applies. Loves that Eddie’s choice was cherry, too - a tried and true flavor, one of Steve’s favorites. And cherry would add a little bit of pinkish tone to his lips. Steve might actually lose it just thinking about that, a wonderful distraction from the current bullshit that weighs on his shoulders. With luck, Steve might someday taste it from Eddie’s lips. Genius move on his part. Definitely patting himself on the back for that.

In the meantime, he’ll keep spearmint for himself. He quickly unwraps it to coat his lips, feeling the tingling sensation, watching Eddie open his cherry chapstick. Yes - put it on! Do it -

Then he realizes, that the cashier isn’t the only one goggling at them; Jonathan is making a weird face at Steve and the chapstick that Eddie is now putting on his bottom lip. Steve almost forgot that Jonathan was even here for a moment. Starts to feel a little bad. Remembers what happened earlier at breakfast. Fuck. 

So - what else can he do, other than just going back to the counter and buying another goddamn chapstick, and flicking it at Jonathan? Steve tells him it’s a bribe to drive the rest of the way back home. You know, because Steve drove the day before, it’s someone else’s turn. 

He gets in the back seat of his own Beemer, glues himself to the back of the passenger seat where Eddie’s sitting. Wraps his arms around him, smiling when Eddie yelps at the sudden contact. And his body just, kind of moves of its own volition, scooting even closer to plant a quick smack on Eddie’s cheek, right around the corner of his mouth, just a small one. Eddie lets out a soft, surprised gasp. And the best part - Steve’s heart swells to note - is that he just turns back to look at him dazedly, lips parted. Far from a complaint.

“Spearmint,” Eddie says, just above a whisper. “I can smell it.”

“Yea? You like this one better?”

“If you wanna swap, just let me know,” Jonathan rolls his eyes, starting the car. 

“Oh,” Eddie says, a little deflated. “You bought one for Jonathan too?”

“With the condition that I drive us back. Besides,” he takes a right turn sharp enough to sway Steve's balance, "mine is original flavor.”

(This is an excerpt from a longer fic; read the rest here)
