So if you were gonna write MegaDrift how would you do it?
Sorry, you really threw me a curveball here, coming up with megadrift that would please not only me but also you it's kinda hard. So have my half assed ideas.
Generally wartime ships with IDW1 Megatron are hard without him feeling like a different character to me, because uh... well, he deliberately keeps himself from connecting with people, it's a whole deal. If he were having intimate relationships that gave his life meaning, he wouldn't have turned out the way he did yeah. I'll spare you the whole essay. He has people he likes, sure, like Ravage, but it's always with this sense of distance, of being seeing as a leader first, his closest relationship beig Soundwave and that's some weird toxic validation loop.
Megatron lives to fight, he won't admit he lives to fight, he leads a cult of personality where everyone either worships him or wants to take his place. He maintains control via maintaining his imagine (the lie he tells himself) and tempting people with the promise of power and then keeping them in line with power plays and beating them (this also feeds his own worldview back into him). This isn't someone who has a healthy understanding of intimacy and consent.
So outside of the 3 main ships I have for him that are its own weird thing, if Warlord!Megatron was being intimate, he wasn't having proper relationships, certainly nothing tender. It's more power plays, feeding his own ego or just straight up using sex as a disciplinary measure (hey, Impactor parallel). And while I could put Deadlock into this, is something for which I could use basically any Decepticon, there is no particular reason to be Deadlock (there may be no reason to be Deadlock), and he doesn't have the characteristics that someone like Starscream has that would make this more interesting.
So I give up on wartime. Let's do something with the Lost Light, and this is an idea that came up in your server, but I think I'd would be super fun if Megatron and Drift had like a mutually parasocial relationship and are now very bitter over that.
Like, Deadlock idealized Megatron on some level, that's how he gets you to join the death and murder cult, and Megatron invited him personally. Then he realizes Megatron isn't really delivering and bails. This really pisses Megatron because he liked Deadlock as someone who festered the sort of anger Megatron himself has and was good at murder.
Then Drift gets even more pissed that Megatron ditched the Decepticons wholesale to go on a roadtrip (he's right tho), and Megatron is like "you ditched the Decepticons first!" (this is in a scenario before his full character development, so he's still very petty). And there's just this increasing miasma of resentment between two people that want to be better and can't quite figure it out and practically everyone in the ship hates them and they remind each other of the way they used to be, but also of the hopes they used to have. They could try to relate to each other, but they won't.
Rodimus gets tired of this and tries to force them to get along by scheduling these Lost Light command bonding exercises because hey, it's better for the crew if they know how to work together!! They have to go because Rodimus is trying to be a good captain. Poor Minimus DOES NOT want to be here, but he's the only one who actually does the activities properly. At some point Rodimus may just shove them into a closet to see if they can fuck their issues out.
But also, something I'd like to see exlored (and that would require Megatron to have his character development) is that Drift has always felt empty, he tries to cover who he is with all these different facades he keeps dropping. And then comes Megatron who also used to put on a facade and was far better at lying to himself than Drift ever was, but when Megatron tries to find himself he eventually just does it, he can never be who he was but he regained some of that person, Megatron can be at peace with the fact that he will never be at peace with himself. And it's so unfair, it's so unfair that it comes so easy to Megatron when Drift has struggled for far longer. When it was Megatron who encouraged Drift's worst traits. And it doesn't help that Megatron's whole deal is accepting that he enjoy's violence for violence's sake, when for Drift violence has always been about survival.
Sorry, I kinda failed at this. But have that.

... aka fictional boyfriends as things my pet cat does lmfao
༊*·˚ featuring ➻ my genshin, hsr & jjk faves
༊*·˚ gia's notes ➻ switching up the layout bc i can teehee... also this one is kinda slop cos its just every character on my masterlist oop. N E WAYS i found out that im allergic to my cat but love is pain and i am a masochist so here we are
ᯓ ᡣ𐭩 DOESN'T RESPOND UNLESS YOU CALL HIM BY HIS NICKNAME.
he's leaning against your kitchen counter, fingers tapping against it as he's poised so deliberately to give off the impression that everything he's doing is so absent-minded. the way he's scrolling through his feed so aimlessly, just tuned out from the world, including you and your futile attempts at getting his attention.
you call his name, tug at his sleeve, and you don't miss the mischievous smirk on his lips as he glances up at you.
"i don't know who that is, sorry, i hope you find him though."
it's infuriating, sometimes, when he lets his more playful side out. but you know him well, and you play along, not being able to help the smile that fights to stay on your lips.
"well then, my beloved, could you help me look for him?"
and there's an instant change from him, back straightening as he stops leaning against your counter, arms open wide to receive you, a beam on his face.
"gladly, my love."

ᯓ ᡣ𐭩 GETS EXTRA AFFECTIONATE AND CUDDLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.
no matter as to whether you had gone to bed with him or before, you're woken up prematurely in the middle of the night at the sensation of your body being moved, ever so gently, across the sheets, closer towards a warm body that nestles itself solidly behind you.
you're barely awake, but you smile to yourself at the newfound comfort, having drifted away as you slept, and now happily reunited.
"i missed you," he breathes against your ear, turning his head to dip down and press kisses to your cheek. you smile, nose scrunching at the ends of his hair that tickle your skin, but welcome it nonetheless.
his arm slips around you, keeping you safely anchored to him, and he lets out a contented hum that almost sounds like he's purring, chest solid against your back.
"you're acting like you've come back from war," you murmur, and he can hear the way you tease even in your half asleep state.
"every second away from you is agony, my love."

ᯓ ᡣ𐭩 RANDOMLY BITES AND HEADBUTTS YOU.
sure, there's doing something unexpected to grab your attention, but it catches you off guard every. single. time.
he has seemingly no regard for whatever it is that you're doing- you're cooking something? he sneaks up behind you, teeth sinking into your shoulder before he slinks away like it never happened.
trying to get work done? he comes up to you, using his head to poke you and offering no explanation as he walks away.
it's ... endearing, to say the least. it comes from a place of love, that's for sure. make no mistake that you like to bite him too, but he still manages to one-up you each time.
while it started off as surprising in the early days of your relationship, over time you've adapted to it, now even offering a body part for him to headbutt as a greeting.
˚୨୧⋆。˚ ⋆ cyno, WRIOTHESLEY, neuvillette, BLADE, toji, HIGURUMA
ᯓ ᡣ𐭩 FOLLOWS YOU AROUND AND WHINES IF YOU DON'T GIVE HIM ENOUGH ATTENTION.
"babyyyy, i'm bored."
you don't have to turn around to know that he's pouting, some grown ass man acting like a toddler in hopes that you'd pay attention to him. you can't help but roll your eyes, what with him pushing the limit between cute and aggravating for the past half an hour or so.
ever since you had invited him over and he practically let himself in, he had basically followed you from room to room, huffing and puffing as you focused on your work instead of entertaining him.
and as you finally settled in your room, at your desk, you watched out of the corner of your eye as he flopped down onto your bed, his head dangling off the edge as he scrolled through his phone half-heartedly.
and you had to admit, he looked cute like that. you bite back your smile as you see him glance up at you to see if you're looking at him before flopping back down on the bed with a huff.
you'll be done soon, then you'll give him all the attention he wants.

i love your blog !! i'm new to reading slasher fics, but i've been loving the hcs people have been coming up with. i'm a sucker for fluffy headcanons about thomas, vincent, and brahms if you're willing 💜
and if you fr do ahs too, kit has always been a fave! and kai... lord have mercy. i'll be happy with whatever tho, i love your writing!
- 🔪💕
Ahhh thank you so much! I can definitely give you some fluff :D So, I started writing this months ago and am just getting back to it. I'm gonna skip the AHS boys on this (just for now) because I really want to focus on the Slashers. Sorry!
Slashers x Reader Fluff
Thomas Hewitt
Thomas had had a long day working, and you had had a long day of doing your own chores. Your joints ached, and you thanked the stars that it was becoming fall. The almost unbearable heat from the summer nights was moving out, and it was becoming nicer.
You dressed into your nightgown and climbed into bed. Thomas wasn't far behind, undressing down to his boxers and climbing in after you. He had even gotten comfortable enough to remove his mask. The bags under your eyes felt like they weighed a ton as your eyes struggled to stay open.
You looked over to Thomas, who was already staring at you as he admired your features. He still couldn't fathom why someone as pretty as you would fall for someone like him. You never chastised him like Hoyt did.
You felt your cheeks start burning and averted your eyes, which caused him to chuckle. He pulled you closer to him, and you couldn't help the giggle that left you. You pressed a kiss to his cheek, and he grinned. Despite being married (at least in the eyes of the family) you two acted like you had yet to leave the honeymoon phase. Of course you had the occasional argument. It was nothing that couldn't be solved though.
Your sleepiness hit you in the face and you felt yourself starting to drift off. Thomas had started his nightly habit of rubbing your back. It seemed as soothing to him as it was to you. You gave him one last sleepy smile before drifting off. He drifted off as well.
Vincent Sinclair
Vincent had been working in the basement (as per usual), and you knew he needed to quit for the night. The sun was nearly setting, and he had worked through the day from nearly sun up. You had brought him food and drinks throughout the day to make sure he didn't get too engrossed in his work. You had also made dinner, which was why you wanted him to stop for the night.
You made your way to the basement, knocking to announce your arrival so you wouldn't surprise Vincent. You opened the door and stepped in, smiling at Vincent, who had looked up to see who was at the door. From the way his mask shifted, you could tell he was smiling.
He wiped his hands off on his apron, and you practically skipped up to him. You wrapped your arms around his neck and kissed his masked cheek. Vincent hugged you to him before releasing you after a moment. "I think it's time for a break, my love." You say and smile at him. He stands still for a moment as if thinking over what you said before agreeing with you. "It's becoming night anyway." He nodded, and you two headed back to the house.
It didn't take long for you to arrive, and you got plates out from the kitchen, setting the little kitchen table. Silverware came next, and then you plated the food, setting it on the table. Vincent waited for you to sit down before removing his mask to eat. Vincent wasn't scared to take his mask off around you anymore. He just preferred to have it on.
You two ate happily, making small talk about your current projects and such. After dinner was finished, being ate and cleaned up, you headed for the bedroom. Neither of you were ready for bed, but you knew it likely wouldn't be long before you got tired. You yawned and changed into your pajamas before climbing into bed. Vincent changed out of his wax stained clothes and did the same, changing into his own pajamas and climbing into bed with you.
You let out a sigh and rubbed your eyes. Vincent smiled at you, and you could tell he was worn out. You smiled back at him snuggled against him. He blushed but didn't object, wrapping his arm around your waist. You played with a strand of his hair and kissed him sweetly, which he returned. It didn't take long for him to fall asleep, apparently more tired than he had realized.
Brahms Heelshire
A soft yawn escaped you as you stood in the kitchen, making the two of you dinner. The majority of the rules had been completed, which left you at dinner. Brahms had disappeared into the walls before you started cooking as he usually did.
You hummed softly as you diced the vegetables that would be used in the dish. Soon enough the dish went into the oven to cook. You let yourself drift into your own little world as you cleaned up the cabinets and cutting board. So far into your own little world that you didn't notice Brahms standing behind you.
The feeling of eyes on you pulled you out and you turned, jumping almost instantly at the sight of Brahms in your peripheral. A soft huff left you as you hung the towel up you had used to dry your hands. "Why didn't you say something?"
He shrugged before picking you up by your thighs and setting you on the counter. A surprised squeak left you as you grabbed onto him for support. A childish giggle left him. He seemed proud of himself. Before you could say anything he shoved his face into your chest, wrapping his arms around your waist.
Your chest had easily become his favorite pillow (next to your thighs). When you read to him, he would lay with his head on your chest. If he could find the opportunity to do it, he likely would. You wrapped your arms around his head loosely and set your head on top of his.
Though you couldn't see his face, you knew he was grinning. His body language alone portrayed how he was feeling. You let your fingers run through his hair, gently working out any knots. He nearly purred. And so you two stayed in relatively the same position until the meal finished cooking.

Heart-shaped kisses. HSR edition ♡
buns notes I am not caught up with the game at all, literally just passed Gepards fight but thats not going to stop me. I hope you enjoy!
content Blade/Dan heng/Gepard/ Jing Yuan x gender neutral reader. Fluff. Kissing of course. Food consumption Gepards and jing yuan is a little long but I will not apologize. I know nothing of chess forgive me i tried to describe everything as vague as possible shsjs. Use of nickname love. Eng is not my first language so i'm sorry for any mistakes. Not completely proofread
D c and ed blogs do not interact or your fave will never come home<3
All heart shaped kisses fics♡
⁎⁺˳✧༚Blade໒꒱.*
Every sweet touch of your lips to his feels like stars are awakening within his veins, Igniting a burning, irresistible hunger, a desire, to hold you closer and selfishly steal another sweet kiss, and then another, and then just one more<3, With no doubt in his heart, you are the closest thing to paradise he will ever experience in his lifetime, and he's going to indulge in it for as long as you're willing to stay.
Maybe you're the reason he's still here, to soften the sharp edges of his blade.
⁎⁺˳✧༚Dan Heng໒꒱.*
Kisses with Dan Heng always happen in private, under warm candlelight, and with only the stars as a witness. He completely melts into you, the weight on his shoulders disappearing just for a moment as his senses are completely enveloped by you, and the sweetness of your kisses and the warmth radiating from your skin from where his hands are resting on your cheeks, rubbing heart shapes into your skin and tilting your head just right to meet his lips. With your hearts beating in sync, he knows he has found his forever home<3
Gepard and jing yuan under the cut!
⁎⁺˳✧༚Gepard໒꒱.*
It's not until a few months into your relationship that you have your first proper kiss with him, not counting the ones you sneakily press to his cheek when he's distracted before scattering off or the soft forehead kisses he gives you in the early morning when you're still warmly tucked into bed and he (with pain in his heart) has to leave early >:(
''I want our first kiss to be special,'' he says quietly, hand coming up to rub the back of his neck as a nervous habit, trying his best to soothe the blush trailing its way to his cheeks. "If you don't mind" (He is so ficking cute I canfbehwhs) Of course you wouldn't mind it!
Every day his love and adoration for you blooms stronger, like vines in your name are wrapped around his heart and soul, evergrowing and ever consuming leaving no empty space. And this is exactly what he told you (after a little push from Serval) , under soft candlelight over the surprise dinner he prepared for you. Unlike a proper seating arrangement, you both sat next to each other on the same side of the table, enjoying the closeness of it all.
He's acting a little odd, a little nervous, it's hard to read but you can tell. It's not until after dessert that you figure out why his hands are shaking slightly and his eyes keep drifting off to your lips
''Permission to lean in? '' he whispers, lips hovering over yours and you're not quite sure if it's your heart that you hear beating so loudly or his.
''Permission granted. '' you reply back with a smile
His kisses are surprisingly strong, and any nervousness from the moments before completely vanishes as he eagerly leans in with enough power behind it to slightly make you lean back, one hand coming up to caress the back of your neck and the other one still holding yours. Strong as his kisses are they are nonteless loving and breathtaking, he's leaning into you like you're his personal source of oxygen. It's all a very cute contrast to when you both pull away and he's looking off to the side saying "I hope that was good" You answer him with another kiss<3
⁎⁺˳✧༚Jing Yuan໒꒱.*
You're not sure why you keep agreeing to this. Your mind is running through every possible outcome and he still manages to beat you. The pri-
"Oh, come on, love" You ignore the fluttering of your heart at the nickname. It seems like the little mental battle that was going on was evident on your face. Sitting before you across the chessboard, failing to hide his smirk behind his hands sits Jing Yuan, your biggest enemy, the bane of your existence, the secret crush and love of your life. " I promise I'm not stealing any pieces this time, you almost have me"
The little sparrow on your shoulders is trying its best to comfort you, rubbing his little head against your cheek and chirping so sweetly, that it's enough to make you willing to keep playing and move another one of your pieces.
Jing Yuan sends you a soft smile before his eyes trail down to study the board. You don't play with a time limit, so he's taking his time to calculate his next move. He didn't lie, you are very close to winning. And finally, you see that too, but you also see how there is an opening for jing yuan to get the upper hand again. You are trying your hardest not to roll your eyes at it, If only you could distract him, intervene with the on going calculation in his mind
Just as he picks up the exact piece you were fearing you quickly blurt out. " I want you to kiss me"
His movements slow and you can hear his breath hitch, his brain trying to catch up with your words and it's enough to make him misplace his piece. He look at you again, as you quickly move your pieces, winning the game. The sparrow on your shoulder fluttering around you in joy and the beautiful melody of your laugh echoing around him.
I win" you say proudly, too occupied with reveling in your victory, you don't hear him get up and move over next to you. close enough to feel his warmth, far enough to get up if you want. It's not until the sparrow that once sat on your shoulder flies past you to sit on his knee that you snap out of your victory haze
"jing yuan?"
"it's quite rude to say things you don't mean, love"
maybe it is the buzz of winning lingering and boosting your confidence because you have no clue where your next words come from
"who says I didn't mean it?"
with a small chuckle escaping his lips and a gentle smile on his face, he sends you one last nod, silently asking for permission, just to be sure, and quickly after receiving a nod back as confirmation, cupping your chin in his hands, thumb trailing along your jawline, pressing a feathery kiss to it and then locking your lips with his.
you let him take the lead, the one time you're fine with losing. The kiss is gentle and intoxicating, enough to make your head fog up with hearts and flowers and spread a delicious warmth all over your body. it takes a while for both of you to open your eyes after pulling away. it's Jing Yuan who breaks the silence. In a slightly flustered state he asks
"are you up for another round?"
"another kiss or another game?"
"whichever you prefer the most"

Can you do a headcannon of Jake and some of his character during post-sex pillow talk?
Yes baby, you're so right for this <3
Characters: Jake, Loki, Donnie, Louis and Adam
Warnings: suggestive, no actual smut. Pretty fluffy, your girl can be soft sometimes
Jake Gyllenhaal
Oh my fave soft dom Jacob 🥺
Billions of praises
"You did so well for me, princess" as he handled your body that still shaked a little
If he was particularly rough that night, he would ask if you were okay, then if you were sure, over and over and over with a very worried look and a very soft voice
Give you so many little kisses and very long massages as the two of you talked about the most random things
From bread to quantum physics
You just enjoyed spending time together, you were best friends who could talk about anything, and turn absolutely everything into a joke, cause he loves making you laugh and you love his peculiar humor
I need him so bad, it's not even funny
David Loki
He isn't a man of many words
Would prefer to show affection by simply keeping you in his embrace, close to his chest as his heartbeat returned to normal
Kissing your forehead while you drifted into sleep
Might whisper a little "thank you" if that was the 'calm his nerves' kind of sex, maybe a little 'I would have gone mad already if it wasn't for you'
If it was romantic, passionate sex, that's one of the only times you'd hear 'I love you', and it would make your heart race every single time
Donnie Darko
I've said it before, I'll say it again, he's obsessed with you
After-sex Donnie will take a while to come back to this ugly planet, he stays stuck on the bliss where only him and his goddess exist
He's all smiley and sweet :((((
It's useless to try and talk to him about anything outside that room
"You're the prettiest girl I've ever seen..." he would drunkly say, everytime
"No, Donnie, I asked if you wanted to order some pizza..."
Louis Bloom
Opposite to David, absolutely never shuts up
His mind is always racing, so he's likely to start rambling about something that has nothing to do with what you just did, I mean, it's over, let's focus on tomorrow's plans
If you were too tired, you'd follow his lead, you'll just let him talk
If you were feeling brave, you'd iniciate round 2, to get him quiet
Adam Bell
He's a softie 🥺🥺🥺
Wants to hear about your day, only because he enjoys your voice so much
You'd insist to hear about his day too, but he isn't a fan of talking about himself
So you started a mission... you'd encourage him to talk, and ask questions during his stories, no matter how boring they were, and he would get all excited talking about something completely normal that happened during class
And when he caught you staring, he'd be like "oh I must be boring you to death, I'm sorry", which you would deny a million times
I mean, he's used to stand and talk in front of a bunch of uninterested people who clearly aren't listening, it's almost automatic
His cute surprised face seeing you interested in what he was saying?
It all gets him looking foward to coming home to you
Where you would make sweet sweet love, and when it ended, he would get this good feeling cause the most intimate part was yet to come
Then you would just lay there talking for hours...

That Warm Christmas Feeling
Synopsis: Your spending the holidays with Jordan but you wake up feeling hot…
Pairing: Jordan Li x fem!reader
Words: 1k+
A/N - Happy holidays my lovelies. I woke up feeling absolutely awful which sucks but here’s a little gift. It's short and messy but enjoy.
WARNINGS - swearing
a blanket of white snow paved the way for joyful celebration and family festivities. the festive season had been deep in your bones since late November. the cheesy Christmas movies. the bright flashing lights. and jolly old men in beards. you never cared much for the festive season by any means, it almost seemed like too much but you were making a conscious effort to try and enjoy it. you want the first holiday season together to feel even just a little special. you had been dragging them along to all kinds of festive events. you had been ice skating and drank hot chocolate. Christmas shopping around the markets. it was all just fun and games. the main event was to take place at their home. your first time meeting their parents. it seemed like such a big step for a rather new relationship but you weren’t against the idea. it would be fun.
a loud groan forces its way past your lips as you roll onto your back. a dull ache settles deep in your bones. a thick fog invades your head as your brain throbs. a blocked, tickly nose. great. you’re sick. on Christmas day of all days. you pull the covers up over your head to escape the sun peaking through the windows. couldn’t have picked a worse day. “good morning,” whispered in your ear. there’s an edge of excitement to their voice. their hand comes up to remove the duvet and reveal your less-than-pleased expression. You move away from them, burying your fave deeper into the pillow. “You good? I thought you'd be more excited. My parents have a full day planned, you're gonna love it.”
A pit of guilt or nausea grows in your stomach. You really wanna get up and enjoy the day but you also just wanna go back to sleep. “Please don't be mad,” you mumble against the fabric of the pillow.
“Why would I be mad?”
“I feel like shit,” you admit. “I think I'm sick.”
“Oh,” there's a pause that almost allows you to drift off again. “That's shit.”
“I’m sorry,”
“no no don’t be,” they reassure you. “You should stay in bed if you're not feeling up to it.”
“is that okay?” you ask quietly.
“Sure, they’ll understand. go back to sleep and I’ll check on you in a little bit, okay?” your only answer is a slow nod that pushes the fabric of the pillow roughly across your cheek. The door clicks shut and you drift off into sweet, sweet unconsciousness.
The time is a mystery when your eyes flicker open next. The world doesn't feel real as your head hammers with an uncertain pain. You sniffle as you fall onto your back. That's when you spot Jordan approaching with a steaming hot beverage in their hand. “How you feeling?” you just groan extra loudly emphasising just how awful you felt about the entire situation. “so good then yeah,” the bed dips beside you and he reaches over with a free hand to check your head. you don’t feel particularly hot so it probably wasn’t a fever. “Mom made you some tea, said it’d fix you right up but don’t feel like you have to.”
pushing up into a seated position, Jordan hands over a mug decorated with little Christmas trees and snowflakes. a heavy sigh leaves your lips. it really did feel like more effort than it was worth just sitting up straight. you take a cautious sip and warmth spills through your veins. “I feel like I ruined today,” you mumble into your cup. staring down at the swirling liquid. “I should have mentioned earlier.”
“you didn’t ruin anything,” Jordan expresses, a calming hand placed on your leg over the covers. “it’s not your fault you got sick.”
“I haven’t really felt great the last couple days but I thought it’d just go away.” you shrug, taking a much larger sip. “I really wanted to do Christmasy things with you. your parents probably think I’m awful.”
“They don’t think that,” they chuckle softly. “just focus on getting better and we can do Christmasy things tomorrow. they won’t mind.”
“thank you for the tea,” you reply handing back the drink.
“and besides,” he takes the drink back. “you’re giving me an excuse to get away from them. I need a break every now and then.“are you hungry?” you shake your head slowly. falling back down against the bed.
“tired.”
they just chuckle. “I’m gonna sit here a moment longer before I brace my parents again. just ignore me.”
the room is shrouded in darkness when Jordan enters once more. a crack of light filtering through the door. you don’t bother acknowledging them; just pull the thick duvet closer to your chest. a heavy sigh fills the air but it doesn’t come from you. the bed dips beside you. “are you awake?” they ask but you don’t bother answering. a silence a silence falls over the room as they shuffle about doing god only knows what. “I’m sorry you got sick,” Jordan speaks aloud. “I wish you could have spent the day with us. my parents can be a lot but they do go all out for Christmas… and I was looking forward to giving you your present,” their voice is quiet and you’re not sure if you should admit to being awake now. “my parents would have loved it. they’re already obsessed with you and they’re so happy I finally brought someone home. and I was gonna tell you I love you” After a moment you know they’re climbing into bed with you. an arm around your waist. you roll over to face them. “maybe tomorrow.”
“you’re gonna get sick,” mumbled out.
“I don’t mind,”
“Are you sure?”
“mhmm,” hummed softly and you don’t bother arguing. you just snuggle closer to his chest. they feel safe and comforting. a welcomed addition to your cosy domain. “I’m glad you’re here,”
“I’m glad you’re here,” you repeat against their chest. “and for what it’s worth. I… love you too.”
“you heard all that,” you don’t respond just shuffle further into his embrace. falling asleep to the sound of their heartbeat as a gentle kiss is pressed against your head.

[This is not a request, i judt had this idea and wanted to share with someone :DD]
Penacony 2.2 story spoiler!
OKAY, thinking about my aventurine yuu idea, I just couldn't stop thinking about my other faves as students in NRC, and a bit of expanding Aventurine's character. Pretty much, certain characters and what dorm I think they would be in, and some get an Unique Magic :DD
Aventurine - Like I said, I highly believe he matches Octavinelle. Shady dorm for a shady guy? Great combo. He would 100% befriend the Octotrio, and probably entrust one of them with his past. He also doesn't wear his uniform right, pretty much just the buttonedup shirt and a bow tie, no jacket. His Unique Magic: "All or Nothing" (Really creative if you ask me), has a 50/50 percentage chance of working. What does it do? Pretty much, by chance, can either completely ignore a spell/curse, or make it even worse/more powerful. Would you like to try your luck ;)
Dr Ratio - Veritas is a fun one but there is something that couldn't escape me. He is 100% Scarabia, why? Scarabia is home to some of the most intellectual students AND is academic rival to Octavinelle, if you catch my drift >:)). No Unique Magic, Aven would annoy the hell out of him bc of this.
Sunday - (My baby man :(( pls be playable) Heartslabyul. Is there a more perfect dorm for a man like Sunday? He would know every single one of the 810 rules from head to toe and follow them diligently, even punish those who don't. Riddle enjoys his company due to it. Unique Magic? "Satisfaction", allows him to manipulate and distort people's memories and emotions, making them perfects mannequins. (Was probably banned from using this Magic due to how dangerous it can be...) [Probably collapsed nentally after Riddle's Overblot, almost overblotting himself]
Argenti - I'd like to say Pomefiore bc beauty and all that, but then I had a funny thought... Savanaclaw. Imagine, seeing this pretty student, almost a real life prince, picture perfect, wearing the Savanaclaw's uniform, priceless. As a Knight, Argenti has incredible physical abilities and he is not afraid to use and get dirty, so Savanaclaw matches him kinda well. Him and Rook would be absolute menaces with each other, Vil would 100% try to make a deal with Leona to change his dorm. No Unique Magic :((
Last but not least, my baby son, Misha - His dorm? 100% Diasomnia. Despite his youthful appearance (Unlike Lilia, he is actually "young"), he has an impressive magic control and abilities, surprising even his classmates. A 1st Year. Unique Magic? Yes, and I'm in a bit of doubt between two. One based on his technique where he is able to stop time in a small "dimension" he creates, or, being able to bring whatever people dream about into reality (although, as an illusion).
THIS WAS LONG I'M SO SORRY 😭
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH OMG i loved misha’s the most (totally not favoritism) BUT YOURE SO RIGHTT OMYG
also Dr.Ratio!Yuu is so funny to me like just imagine him wearing that mask that he wears in hsr around the campus as he gets judgemental stares CACKLINGHH

TUMBLR WRAPPED 2024!
hi!
did i scare you? unexpected post, huh? I wanted to have something fun to wrap up the year before we move on so I thought, why not a "wrapped"?
Keeping it short & sweet with some insights too + i luv statistics and seeing patterns, so this is always super interesting to me. Without further ado, here's our wrapped together!
Stats Recap (nerd stuff):
As of 10/12/2024, I have 106 posts. 21 of those are actual fics, meaning almost 1/5th of my posts are works.
The rest is yapping - need to stfu got it! noted!
I received 1,901 notes and 149 followers.
You people are INSANE!!! I have a more emotional post due for New Year's but truly, that is wild, wild work. I'll save the tears and heartfelt stuff for that one, but I want you to know how eternally grateful I am for all of you. Being encouraged by you guys is not just inspiring—it’s addicting, electrifying, and everything in between.
Thank u for the outpouring love.
Inbox Recap (what to look for in 2025?):
Hold ur horses, there's gonna be a lot to write and get through! Thank you for requesting and trusting me to make your ideas come true, I hope to do 'em justice.
Here's a little "reading" so to speak (I HAVEN'T WRITTEN ANYTHING SO DON'T START @ ING ME):
Dominic Fike/Elliot:
sensing an alarming amount of unrest and horn*ness over here. Sensing two posts, both for elliot....smth smth... NSFW... something to do with Nate as well, joining....? Nate and NSFW has the same about of letters too, not a coincidence!!! Also sensing a blurb with a massively underrated song. u btches ab to pmo, why don't we listen to Açaí Bowl more as a collective get the streams up omfg- sorry got sidetracked. that's ab all I can say.
Jude Bellingham:
Pretending to be shocked when I say: more smut requests? Oh brother. But one's very sweet and cute and respectful awww-- SIZE K*NK? oh gosh guys um..the only way I can describe this one is...desperate smut. Anon... cmon now. I would say more, but anon owned up to it saying "This is a long and sick request but I believe you are the only writer on here that can bring this to life 😭😭" which makes me giggle so FINE i'll let it slide, I'll try to do as best as I can (luv u don't u worry I got ideas brewing)
Ben Shelton:
phew. lot of nsfw. like a lot. like a crazy amount. Talking ab that damn car (I'm gonna do smth DRASTIC to that fkin car if he posts w it one more time) talking ab being a munch, ab a supermodel, talking ab scratches, talking ab laver cup (THROWBACK!), about ben showing off.... it's getting hot under the collar, oh gosh. Ahem. We have some sweet fluff ones too! including reader getting insecure/jelly. Ben being irrational, one about....homesickness? a LOT of pregnancy asks. like A LOT. SHELTON NATION DON'T GET KNOCKED UP. PLEASE. One I'm very excited to write, Ben x a certain Doja song...heheheheehehe oh and also, Ben and a 'knock-on effect' w his precious little car, ykwim? no? you'll find out. shush. A very exciting story ahead, the first one with NSFW incorporated - thank u 'D' for the prompt!! Also, I finally got my hands on them tiktok editors and I've made a promise or two to do something w their works.....catch my drift? you'll see soon. Special little hints as to who: victim no 1 and victim no 2 🙂↕️😝😙🥰
Post Recap (what went on the billboard charts for u?):
IN 6TH PLACE:
At 85 notes each, we have a tie between "Yours" and "Come Here". Both Ben posts, one SFW the other NSFW. Writing "Yours" was super fun, writing jealous/possessive and sassy Ben kills me laughing, IJBOL and writing Carlitos too? SO funny (wonder how that'd go down differently since we saw them being bff besties at Garden Cup) - Possessive Ben is a guilty pleasure, hehehe. Writing "Come Here" was really interesting since it was my first NSFW of Ben. Also based off of my fave Dom Fike song that's just as h*rny. Thigh riding being my FIRST one off the dome is lwky crazy lmao. Sometimes, I wish I could write more in my NSFW posts, i feel a bit insecure in my NSFW writing? I believe in quality>quantity in fics always, but I hate how short mine are for NSFW posts...sigh. Maybe I should build up the tension more? Go deeper (no pun intended)? you let me know, that would be incredibly insightful!!
IN 5TH PLACE:
At 93 notes, we have my baby, "Shattered"!!! "Shattered" ended up becoming a mini-passion project for me (clearly). What was meant to be a mid-sized blurb ended up progressing to 10k words - how that happened is beyond me. Everytime I thought I was done and ready to close up and conclude, there'd be another part, another bit that I'd want to add. It even got to a point where I'd be on my bus home from work or college, almost falling asleep when I'd get woken up with more inspo, lol. It was my first time writing angst in a very, very, very long time but looking back now, I really truly enjoyed it and I'm quite proud of it! Maybe more angst reqs in my future? I’m leaning towards YES
IN 4TH PLACE:
At 102 notes, we have the "NSFW Alphabet with Ben" - you people are so horny omg. This was the first EVER NSFW thing written about Ben from me. And honestly? my least fave hahahahaa. I deadass have this blocked out of my memory, like I haven't gone back to read it after I posted it. I feel like I'd read it and cringe, or disagree w it or be like "erm acshully ....that's not canon" it prob needs to be redo - I'd never hate any of my children but I'm just saying if this one went missing, idgaf. If you want a crazy NSFW reading thats prob more accurate than anything, check this reading out. Feral, bye.
IJBOL what in the equality is my top 3 posts- I MEAN, here's the top 3 that you people ate tf up!
IN 3RD PLACE:
At 142 notes, we have the "When it Rains, it Pours" - smut always wins here huh? My 2nd fic post! This is a whole nasty NSFW post w Elliot from Euphoria (aka Dominic Fike) mixed with friends w benefits, rain noises, a homemade fort and w**d! Amazing trio imo. Literally as I'm writing this, I just got another like for that freaky ass blurb. As much as I'm excited to write more Dom/Elliot stuff, ALL OF YOU PEOPLE ARE SOOO HORNY? LIKE EVERY SINGLE INBOX REQ IS SMUT? EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Idk how many times I can reinvent the wheel, so to speak, but I'll sure as hell try....hehehe
IN 2ND PLACE:
At 143 notes, we have "Game, Set, Match" part 1 - Ben Shelton. AWWWW MY BABY, MY LOVECHILD! This was the first ever STORY and I'm so glad it became a 3 part story too. Triple Platinum, I know that's right!!! I really loved making this, I didn’t plan to add the Instagram element, especially since I’m usually terrible at fake IG fic stuff (finding the right images is so limiting). But for GSM, it just felt right. I think my writing has improved a lot since then, too. I always laugh at my Ben posts because my A.Ns are always like "oh brother a LONG ONE HERE" and then my next post is even longer 😭 Thank u fr for the love on this one, because THAT'S when I really got a whole lottaaa support and love and it rly blew me out of the water, I could cry.
And finally....IN 1ST PLACE:
At 147 notes, it's no surprise that we have the "Waves", a Jude Bellingham blurb.
No surprises here, it was meant to be. I say that because I had this ask sitting in my inbox and decided to do a poll asking what I should post first - after tagging all the tags, I should've known it'd be crazily ratio'd by the Jude community on here, hahahhaha. I think it was something like 80% for Jude and the rest scattered throughout? This was my first ever Jude blurb, and I think it'll be one of many. I have a couple in my inbox but the future is there for me and writing about that silly guy.
Final words:
Was that as interesting for you as it was for me? I've been meaning to talk and reflect to u all inbetween the whole "Advent Calendar" series.
If anything, these stats tell me more about you guys, what you want to see and how I should continue going forward. I always want to write about things that matter the most and stick with you, fics that have you coming back to reread and enjoy.
Having representation in my characters and creating a world where you can sink into time and again is one of the best and only things I can give, so you bet by all means neccessary I don't want to half-ass it.
I might not know where your headspace is at, or what's going on in your life but I hope whatever happens, I can have a little space right here, make you laugh, smile and feel things that take your mind off of reality. At least until you finish reading.
As for the rest of the year, I still have my finals and work this weekend and as the season comes closer, I'd like to spend it with my loved ones while I still can :) The "Advent Calendar" will continue as per scheduled!
I hope to write some more before NYE comes round but we'll see. It's never a burden to write, it's always a destresser, but you bet I'll be enjoying company with family and friends too. That's all I've got for 2024, I can't wait to continue creating silly little imaginary situations in 2025 <3
- lots of love,
azzie.

Ratiorine
Aventurine hears someone from work making a joke about listening to recordings of uni lectures to help them fall asleep at night and he decides it's worth a shot
That night he looks at podcasts and lectures about various difficult topics and sees a familiar name, so he starts listening to recordings of Dr Ratio's lectures
Dr Ratio has a nice, calming voice so Aventurine finds himself drifting off to sleep (and not really learning much lol)
But then a lot of things happen and Aventurine ends up sleeping with Dr Ratio, who is apparently the type who says wild shit in bed (I'm sorry but his voice line, もう限界か? 'Are you at your limit?' is too much. I'm sorry this probably exists only in Jp (because I checked and the En says 'Call that defense?') but it did something to my brain chemistry. 悪くない is also a fave)
And now Aventurine can't listen to Dr Ratio's lectures without remembering and can't fall asleep to the recordings anymore

PROWL: So Megatron is unaware of your defection? And invited *you* to the Conclave.
DRIFT: It wasn't exactly announced? Turmoil and I had been at each others throats for months, and I've gone...independent before on occasion. I'd have thought Lockdown or someone would have mentioned it but apparently not.
PROWL: Your background as Deadlock isn't widely known within the Autobots either. Your paperwork hasn't officially been filed anywhere but my private systems.
DRIFT: [with a bad feeling and hating monthly "checkups" already] ...okay.
PROWL: Keep an eye out for an email.
PROWL: [off screen] Jazz, I need to pull you for new ops training.
Drift is absolutely certain it cannot be what he thinks it is. Prowl cannot actually expect him to just walk up to the Conclave and act like nothing happened. There is no possible way.
Jazz arrives and cheerfully informs him that it is exactly that. Clearly the lack of survivors on Turmoil's crew and Lockdown's own recent need to make a run for it meant Deadlock’s defection never updated. Plus, while under Kup, he hasn't exactly become widely known or been spotted. Jazz has his own cover identity as a Decepticon he's carefully maintained, but they've never gotten close to the Conclave. Hence, their new job to temporarily resurrect Deadlock as a double agent.
There's a lot of arguing and vack and forth, but the knowledge the last Conclave started off the Expansion Era is convincing enough that everyone is taking this seriously. Even Decepticon operations have been put temporarily on hold, and they have the best of the best on it. There are some compromises, though. Drift isn't going in alone. Jazz, obviously, and the Wreckers and Kup's squad are on standby to pull him if needed.
Also, Hot Rod, with his new spanking Decepticon Identity, Flareup, shows up with a purple and blue paintjob to Drift's first spy class to go with him. Hot Rod is a scout and was the leader in a secret revolution, and he's actually better at the social aspect and making quick connections seeming comfortable and like he belongs then expected. Drift is also uncomfortable about the fact he is a good social chameleon being praised and Jazz's unsubtle attempts to join his team rather than Kup's.
Starscream, meanwhile, has put a pin on Earth because he is not missing this, so humanity gets an unexpected mercy from immeninent alien invasion while the war goes in a different direction.
Tarn meanwhile is perfectly happy with his supportive team, daydreams of a reunion, and the correct shade of orange at last. He is completely oblivious to Nickel plotting to murder Megatron and Vos, encouraging her while the rest of the DJD deal with the uncomfortable feeling of admitting they are also upset about Tarn's treatment but aren't quite willing to fully criticize Megatron.
No one has told Nickel yet that it is Megatron, and she and Flareup are currently exchanging revenge plots. Even better her friend is going to be at the Conclave along with Tarn's pesky soon-to-be ex and has agreed to help Nickel hide the body because apparently none of the other DJD are willing to take out the trash so she will.
Gsggd nooo of course prowl of course
So he's just gonna stroll in there like nothing happened, delightful
Makes sense everyone's taking this very seriously based on what they previously know about the Conclave
SONOFYES, RODDIE HAS A DECEPTI-SONA
Starscream making a smart decision
The full on murder plot is funny to me, like tarn would disapprove but i sure don't
I'm sorry Megatron you may be my fave but you're often a horrible person
This Conclave is gonna be a disaster🥰🥰🥰
#maccadam#transformers#mtmte hot rod#mtmte drift#mtmte deadlock#same guy#mtmte tarn#mtmte megatron#mtmte nickel#decepticon justice division#idw prowl#idw starscream#idw jazz#idw kup#mtmte lockdown#idw turmoil#hope that's everyone#basically: oh this is gonna be fun

*SIGHHHH*
i was supost to post this during thanks giving as a gift to @theosphobia but i just never got around to posting it- 😬
anyway 🏃➡️
get ready for the most cringe worthy tooth rotting fluff you’ve ever seen, because I finally let one of my fave characters be happy. (They are usually ether dead or in extreme pain 🤣)
I’m posting the first part here, the full thing (including the rooftop make out session) will be uploaded to ao3 later today 😚
I’m stupid Wrif one shot and your watching Disney channel
Washington sat on the roof, his legs dangling over the side.
The setting sun painted the sky with vibrant shades of orange, casting a warm glow over the gulch.
He sighed.
Recently that color had started to mean more to him than he was willing to admit.
He was a freelancer, a fighter and a damned good soldier, yet he could barely get the strength to talk to the guy.
“Damned Grif” he thought, his mind involuntarily drifting to the man with that infuriatingly charming, chubby face, flawless hair, and those stupid, deep dark chocolate eyes that seemed to peer right through his façade.
Washington was snapped out of his thoughts by the sound of footsteps approaching on the roof. He turned to see Grif walking over holding two cans of beer.
“Hey Wash, thought I'd find you here, mind if I sit?”
Washington nodded a little too quickly “y-yea sure” he said his voice flat.
Grif huffed as he sat down next to Wash, their legs almost touching as Grif offered him a beer.
Wash accepted it trying to ignore the way his stomach did a flip when their hands touched.
“So…..” Grif starts scratching the back of his neck “you got any plans- you know for when this is all over?”
Washington sighed again trying to compose himself as he looked out at the horizon.
“You know, before I met you guys…I never really planned for a life outside the military.”
Grif chuckled lightly looking down at the beer can in his hands. “Don't worry, with your looks, you could easily find some chick to settle down with.”
“I don't want some chick,” Washington thought to himself “I just want you.”
. . .
“Wut-” Grif stuttered, his eyes widened in surprise, a flush creeping up his cheeks.
Shit he had said that out loud hadn't he.
The realization of what he had just confessed hit him like a ton of bricks.
Washington's face flushed a deep crimson, and he quickly looked away.
He opened his mouth to say something, but no sound came out.
They both sat there, the two men flustered and awkward like school boys.
“Wash-”
"Sorry Grif, I- just-"
He stood up abruptly, turning to leave, but Grif was faster.
The man reached out and grabbed Washington's hand, stopping him in his tracks. Their fingers intertwined instinctively, and Washington felt a jolt of electricity course through him. "Don't go," Grif said softly, his grip firm but gentle. Washington looked back, his heart pounding in his chest.
Washington swallowed hard, his throat dry. "I just… I didn't want to make things weird between us and-“
Grif chuckled, a warm sound that eased some of Washington's tension.
"Weird? Wash, life's been nothing but weird. This," he lifted their joined hands slightly, "this is probably the most normal thing in this entire gulch."
Washington took a shaky breath, his mind racing.
Grif- Grif liked him back?
Gathering his courage, he stepped closer, his free hand gently cupping Grif's cheek, and before he could second-guess himself, he leaned in, pressing his lips against Grif's. Grif responded immediately, his free hand coming up to tangle in Washington's hair, pulling him closer. When they finally pulled apart, both men were breathless, their foreheads resting against each other.
"I…" Washington began, his voice trembling. "I can't believe I just did that."
Grif grinned, his eyes looked beautiful in the orange of the sky. "Well, I'm glad you did."
Washington's face was still flushed,as he looked at Grifs blushing cheeks, he leaned back in.
————————————-
I MAY BE CRINGE BUT I AM FREEE
anyway you’ll be able to find the full fic on Ao3 it’s going to be called “sweet Orange” (so original Ik 🤓)
#yipeeeeeee#wrif#rvb fanfic#grif#Rvb grif#grif rvb#dexter grif#Washington rvb#rvb agent Washington#Agent Washington#One shot#fanfic#ao3#wash rvb#rvb wash

Zilabee i love your blog very much, every time you post I get incredibly excited you're so knowledgable about those four randy scouse gits, but I'm trying to get into the book side of the Beatles and I know there are many posts out there to help with that, but I want to know personally, what do you think are the best Beatles books? Not by popularity or the best author, what are your favourite Beatles books you would recommend to people to read? I know you're a Paul girl (which aren't we all at heart? cause even if he isn't your fave he's your faves fave, so by association we're all Paul girls), but please don't worry about favouritism again this is an ask of your fave Beatles books
anon! thank you for nice words; apologies for being so slow
it's hard to recommend people things, I'm not deeply inside the capability of it, and most beatles books, like the beatles themselves, are basically awful
the books on my beatles shelf that I feel most fondly towards aren't about beatles, they're about Tara Browne and Robert Fraser
i want desperately to recommend the books by Maureen Cleave and Iris Caldwell but they never wrote them so I can't, so don't read those
i really like dakota days by john green. that's probably embarrassing to be the first book I can think of that I like but there we go. I think I went in with very low expectations, so that probably helped and I've ruined that for you by saying it's good. it's about john with yoko, not all the beatles, and as with all john books, the author is very 'actually I knew John well, I really got him...' which is what all men do, but then instead of 'we shared this amazing connection! he TRULY LOVED ME!!' he's more 'he was just really fucked up and desperate to be loved' which is not what most men do, so I liked that. Also he storifies it all, which keeps you a bit detached from how heartbreakingly sad it all is if it's remotely true.
i loved the longest cocktail party by richard delillo. I thought it captured apple beautifully, and it's very much of it's time, which is also the beatles's time, so it's very much of the beatles even if they're not often there. it was written in 1970 and it does cover the total death of all happiness, but obviously only from a very close perspective, and he'd left by then and everyone disappeared, so instead of pretending to know things he doesn't, he just drifts into newspaper headlines and reports, and it works really well for a person like me who finds the endings very difficult
i think one of the very first beatles books I read was here, there, and everywhere, by geoff emerick and I have a lot of remembering it being good while now not really remembering it, but i do like books by people who were actually trying to work while the beatles were around, rather than trying to wank all over them, because there is a suitable level of frustration with them, which makes it all feel a bit more bearable. you do have to put up with how much he hates george, but we have to put up with a lot of things
as time goes by, by derek taylor, is very good if you don't mind that derek taylor is living his life in inverted commas and I'm only recommending you books about the terrible aching sadness of the end, sorry. I love the way it's written though, I love the way it's felt, I love how much he hates Paul in 1968... but then as he says, many of the people he likes most are absolutely terrible, and he means brian, but it's true of all of them and I just really like that he feels it
everyone recommends it I know it's not new, but michael braun wrote the beatles's progress and that is very good and earlier and brighter than a lot of what I've mentioned. and it's short! which I think is important in beatles books too, because it means people aren't trying to fill pages. apart from the cocktail party all of these are quite short.
actually that's probably my main advice when you're trying to decide to read beatles books:
pick short ones to start with
pick ones written by people who worked with/for them
pick your favourite era and start there
and you don't have to care whether it's 'trusted' or 'reliable' or whatever, care about whether you enjoy it, and then pick over the bones of the biases later
i have read some of the big full biographies, but they're kind of boring, trying to tell you everything when they don't actually know anything and they weren't there. tumblr's better for that. also they sort of pretend not to have an opinion, which is both a lie and a boredom, because opinions are the best thing. books by people who knew them DEFINITELY have opinions and you get to judge them.
I liked pete best's book more than I thought I would, I just read it the other week. I can't remember a lot about alistair taylor's book now, but I remember enjoying it, specially to get more sense of brian, and brian's autobiography is written by derek taylor so it snips along. either of george martin's books is nice and quick. chris salewicz wrote the best biography of paul mccartney and it fits in your pocket. cynthia and may are both good.

For the 2024 in review: 9, 19, 30 :)
9. What fic made you feel the happiest to work on?
These types of questions are so hard to answer because for me it's hard to pin point just one fic, so I'm going to cheat and pick more than one 😊
1.) This past year, it was so much fun writing Falling For You . . for you. 😉. Creating Tracy and Mateo are two favorite OCs of mine now and I've got a soft spot for them. The fic was enjoyable to write ( I love a good kid!fic) - I'm still loving how that dream sequence turned out - which I know is a fave of yours as well! The story kind of felt like a little rom-com to me, which gave me all the happy, warm fuzzy feels when everything turned out all right at the end. And you need that every now and then. ( psst . . I saw your suggestion about a little sequel on-shot and it did get me thinking - I might be able to work on a variation of that)
2.) Continuing If I Can Make Your Heart My Home ( Klaine WIP) as been such a pleasure. I'm eternally greatful that @datshitrandom is such a patient partner in crime. I've loved this story from the first ever brain storming session with her and on.
I look back and am exceedingly proud how this story is turning out (yes, I know folks two more chapters!. I'm working on it!). But it is to date the longest thing I've EVER written and I'm so proud of that. I actually checked and I've officially written enough to consider this a Klaine fan fiction novel! 😂😂😂😂. Folks seem to also actually like my long ramblings which is always flattering. And I've just loved everything that this story has become - all the Glee cameos . . all the twists, turns . . the angst ( god I love angst as a reader) . . the cliffhanger chapter endings ( which I know drive a lot of you crazy, sorry - but I'm a fan of those too). This is, I hope in its own way, a love letter to the characters and the show I've enjoyed so much.
3.) Now writing Puppy Love ( a RWRB/First Prince WIP) has been a joy because it is my first dip into the RWRB fandom . . (I've done a few one shots, but this is my first multichapter for those darling boys). I think it's going ok . . the characters are just so much fun to write for - and I THINK I've captured them correctly - I love all versions of them, from the book to the movie!
19. Share your favorite piece of dialogue.
It is for another WIP ( I have so many, I know) but it makes me laugh:
This is from a RWRB/FirstPrince online auction fic which I call: how ardently i admire and love you.
Here Alex is at odds as to what to get Henry for his birthday - so he goes to their mutual friend, Pez, for advice.
Pez’ laughter rang out rich and warm. “Alex, my dear Padawan, why are you stressing out about this? You do know that you could just tie a bow around your . .” Pez coughed lightly, his eyes drifting downward as he smirked suggestively. Alex groaned. “I know. I know. I was thinking something else would be better. . . I don't know . . something more spectacular.” “You are seriously underestimating how spectacular Haz finds your dick, my sweet strumpet.”
30. What would you like to write next year?
I have SOOOOO many WIP I want to get back to.
Sanctuary . . ( Klaine fic) for one I want to get back to as well as finishing up If I can Make Your Heart My Home and Puppy Love ( mentioned above).
I also have this prequel for my first ever Klaine fic that I wrote that I'm dying to get more work on.
I actually have 3 chapters of a Klainetober 2024 fic I had started in October but had to put aside . . it's called Blood, Sweat and Tears and I've got 3 chapters writen so far.
There are a couple of historical fics in my WIP bag for both Klaine and FirstPrince that I want to get too . .
So much writing to do . . so little time!
Thanks again for the ask, @mynonah!

WIP Wednesday today?? I am sat for the last chapter of events of longing, literally my fave fic of all time!
I am so sorry I have been so bad at WIP Wednesday lately! I've been having to go into work super early in the morning and I absolutely hate it because I'm dead for the rest of the day and my brain stops working 😂 Here's a little snippet of Scents of Longing! As always it is unedited and subject to change. I am nearly done with the last chapter *I think,* so I hope to post it fairly soon!
⋇⋆✦⋆⋇
The night before their wedding, Colin lay in his childhood bedroom on his last evening as a bachelor. Anthony and Benedict invited over Will and Simon for a few drinks—or several, for Benedict anyway—but they managed to turn in quite early. The house was already abuzz with activity in preparation for the wedding breakfast, and their mother would have their heads if they woke up bottle-weary and caused them to miss their appointment at the church.
Never again would he have to sleep alone. Even if they were to come back to Bridgerton House and stay the night, he would be sleeping in this room with Pen. It felt a little off balance that he had spent so much time in his mate’s bedroom, but she had never seen his. He could picture her wandering around, looking at all the trinkets he’d collected over the years on his travels—shells from Greece, a telescope from Italy, books in Spanish and German, glass figurines and ancient statues of dubious origin. Someone would be around to pack everything up not long after he left tomorrow, everything but the largest pieces of furniture to be taken to their new home in Bloomsbury sometime in the next week.
God, their home. It was a labor of love, but he hoped she would like it. She did not have the time to take a tour before their wedding, so he did his best and left a lot of the decorating for her. He thought she might like to arrange her new home to her liking, especially before her next heat.
Part of him wondered if she could already be pregnant with a pup, but it so rarely happened during a first shared cycle. They had taken no precautions, however, so there was a possibility. They would not know for a few weeks yet, though he longed to see her grow round with his child.
He finally began to drift, the release of sleep starting to overtake him and weigh down his eyes, but he heard the quietest, tiniest tapping at his door.

ahahaha soooo what music / bands would your ocs each listen to? Do you associate different Genres with different ones?
oh my dear at this point my ocs's music taste is more developed than their damn lore /hj ALSO YOU'RE IN LUCK THAT I HAD MADE THIS VID HERE A WHILE AGO, I THINK IT MIGHT HELP, STILL, I'LL DO A LIL LIST HERE W THE CHARACTERS IN THE VID
Seraph doesn't really mind that era of music (2012 stuff) and i doubt he'd even be ashamed of it if he did, or anything, really but i think its Klaus who would enjoy that stuff more but if you're wondering what he actually likes, its jazz influenced stuff (Lounge, bossa nova) and Kpop, he was paticularty inspired by Kpop, surprisingly lmao "Still with you by Jung-kook" or "Fullmoon by Sunmi" are some he'd enjoy a lot c: no wonder he came out so fruity
Klaus specifically loves 90s~early 2000s RnB since he grew up with it but i'd say he's open to most things! hell i'd say one of his fave songs even is "Tell it to my heart by Taylor dayne" <<<he rocks this song when cleaning the house or "I'll do it by heidi montag" definetely likes the "ARTPOP" album by gaga
Neberius is big fan of Eurobeat or Eurodance, anything he can para para dance to, probably found his love for the genre when he'd go clubs with his old friends before he died HAHAH "Run away by real Mccoy" or "No one sleeps in tokyo" are some examples, be glad there are no cars for transports in this city cause this man would not hesitate to drift around if these stuff played
Now for Locky i've mentioned this before a few times but he's a metalhead despite being secretive about it, particuraly a fan of Thrash, Heavy or just anything fast, its just something he enjoys in terms of sound despite not agreeing with the ones with questionable lyrics even if they're made for shock value only iykyk :skull: he's just not that type of person lmao but i don't think he minds when the themes get canibalistic tho, some stuff i see him vibing to is "Black magic by Slayer" or even the whole "PTSD" album by Utsu-P <<<(yes, this means he canonically listens to vocaloid too, it'd be unfair to not have that out there since his design was initially inspired by a vocaloid song <X,D if you're into vocaloid and look at his design, it'll probably be obvious wich song was it (and if it isn't i'm sorry HUDASDSND I CAN AWNSWER LATER THO)
OOF OKAY.. i have other ocs with specific tastes n stuff but then this reply would get annoyingly long and confusing since i haven't introduced them here, but yeAH i'm normal about these specific questions :3 maybe i could do another list like this
#ablaze#also on topic but i have music associates with lore aswell. its why i cry like a lil b sometimes. some don't even have lyrics#i go purely with the vibes i get#also sorry if i fucked up my grammar somewhere
