#if it was really just that people were busy then it wouldnt drag on this fucking long

[betweenblackberrybranches]

So i wrote a little thing for the RLGL au

Its a prologue of sorts, the first actual meeting between the guys and y/n at work before they become neighbours

Be warned though i am not a writer and typed this out quickly on my phone while i was supposed to work so it is probably not that good (i think i just randomly switch between present tense and past tense so it just be like that)

Warning for suggestive themes. But nothing explicit is mentioned

There you stood, one hand grabbing the handle of the sleek chrome and wooden door. This was not part of your job description. And this was really not something you wanted to do. You were a janotor. Fixing minor electrical things, looking after the plumming, washing all sheets that the cleaners brought into the washing room and fixing and cleaning up the rough stuff. Every day was busy and you had always kept to yourself and the many staff only hallways, away from the rich red and black velvet and the polished wooden floors, raw concret where the eyes of the customers wouldnt see.

You felt safe in your domain, the low humming of the heating filling the basement rooms like the breathing of a sleeping dragon. Or atleast that was what you liked to imagine it as. It made your work seem atleast a little more exciting and kept your mind of the various fluids you had to painstakingly rinse out of the white and burgundy sheets.

You straighten your sleeves, a black turtleneck black slacks and a black baseball cap with fazCOs logo, not really the usual uniform for the people interacting with customers, worlds away from the white button up and vest you should be wearing. But this was an emergency. Well as far as the rich bozo in this room was concearned atleast. So who knows on what level the "mess" was, this could be anything from some spilling to..... well no need to think about worst case szenarios.

Straightening your cap one last time you enter the dimmly lit room. You immidiatly regret every single choice that led you to this specific sight. The hairs on your arms rising in protest as you try to nonchalantly step further into the mess, the customer having left apparently, not even waiting for the emergency roomservice to arrive after calling for it. Red wine and some gunk that looked like it had been food once that had been chewed and spit out again smeared all over the couch and carpet. You call out to make sure the coast is clear, trying very hard to not gag.

As soon as you are sure there is no human in the room you rush to a lifeless form of satin metal and plastic on the ground, swallowing hard as salvia and gall rise up in your throat. You find the second one bundeled up on the bed, lanky arms and legs positioned in a way that sent a shiver down your spine, one of his arms was popped out of the shoulder, only hanging by the many thin cables running under the outer casing.

Shaking hands finding the small power button at the base of the blue ones head you wait, counting five and then ten seconds. This isnt something you should be doing. This is against company policies, and yet you cant just leave them like this for a technician to find after you cleaned up. The soft hum of the reboot sent your hand back as if burned and you kneel down to repeat the action on the yellow one. You knew they had names, pretty obvious ones at that.. sun and moon. You had only seen them from afar until now. Especally because you were not a waiter or maid, someone who would walk past them regularly in the flashy suits and club rooms, no you were someone working in the shadows. A shame that the one time you saw them this closely it felt like you should avert your gaze, because even under the questionable liquids and gunk they still looked stunning. The yellow one started humming under your touch and you hurridly got up, starting the cleaning process and ignoring the two stiring bodies like you were supposed to.

Moon sat up straight, unfurling from his nothing but explicit position, his left arm dragging on the bed. No mind was given to the worker bustleing around the furthest corner as moon leaped forwards and down to the ground, shaking arm immidiatly finding his bright counterpart who was in the process of opening his eyes. Sun looked up and welcomed the soft embrace of moon, foreheads pressed together best they could with their orbish heads, giving themselves just one moment of comfort before dealing with the situation at hand.

You had started to clean the bathroom first, wanting to give the two robots enough time to regain their baring and hide their bodies away if they so wished. A bitter taste on your lips you reenter the main suite with two steaming hot towels and a big box of wet wipes, wordlessly pressing them in the hands of the two, now sitting on the bed encased in a thin sheet. With any interaction between general staff and escorts being prohibited you were pretty much towing the line of doing something that could get you fired, but you felt like this needed to be done.

Moving on you cleaned the carpet, trying to ignore the two bots meticulously wiping down eachother. You sigh. This all felt so wrong. You grab the cleaning rag tight as you rub at the carpet and wish you could do more for the two than gracefully ignoring them and their disheviled apearances, assuming theyd even want any help from a random janitor.

They are still cleaning and fixing up eachother when you put away the last stained pillowcase and wipe down the low table one last time. You swallow dryly. All you can think of doing for them is grabing two small post it notes from your cart and make small origami flowers, one of like three things you know how to fold. Leaving them behind on the stack of clean clothing you plop down on one edge of the bed. It is hard not to sneak one last look at the two, hovering around eachother, deeply concentrated on reapplying eachothers makeup with gentle brushstrokes.

The most beautiful constelation. But you feel like this is not something you are supposed to whitness.

You leave the room, softly dragging the door shut behind you and the cleaning cart with a click, disappearing back into the concrete lined corridors of the staff only areas, back to whatever you were doing before, the two robots in their gentle embrace at the border of your mind.

Cream fingers close around the neon colored paper flowers, to be carefully deposited in an inner jacket pocket and transported home. To be kept safe in a small cardboard box under their bed. To be forgotten but never lost.

president mind situation my take AND WHY I WAS WRONGLY BANNED!!!! (and why you shouldnt hate me!) TW/CW: mentions of shipping (sorta) and nsfw (chonny jash

this gonna be a long wall of text just sayin.. but pleeaaase read im tired of people slandering my name when im not bad.

im way better than the people who got me banned i was literally a scapegoat bro.. cordial and corey and all them mfs are so weird but thats a whole different thing

OK!! FIRST: Addressing the things i was banned for.

i was banned for hms sex jokes and erp yea true there is literally proof of the sex jokes but they're nothing but jokes even ppl who are told of the incident laugh at the screenshots because its so obvious that i WAS KIDDING. and being banned for erp? with no proof? really? yeah whatever literally none of what i did wrong was in the rules. especially for out of server stuff YEAH. IT WAS OUTSIDE THE FUCKING SERVER… IT WAS ALL IN A PRIVATE GROUP CHAT AND SOMETIMES (RARELY) DMS. everyone in the group chat was completely and 100% fine with EVERYTHING happening! everyone had said so. (let me clarify: there was no out of server rules when we were banned, they added them so they can fucking control their server members over shit like this like bffr.) stuff in the rp wasnt supposed to make anyone uncomfortable or be serious in anyway when it came to sexual stuff, the rp itself actually existed outside of the groupchat with extensive lore but it wasn't really sexual at all. the rp was kept private SO PEOPLE WOULDNT BE UNCOMFORTABLE.. even so, it being private wasnt enough apparently because some little rats had to jump into a place they didnt belong and build a whole ass story off the shit I did wrong?? when i literally did NOTHING against the rules. sure you can be like "oohh you were sexualizing chonny jash" sure! hms were there but we never mentioned chonny himself. we treated all three of them like our own ocs and completely unaffiliated with him, we thought it was fucking weird to sexualize chonny in anyway. (soul wasnt sexualized and anyone else in the rp were just OCs).

i never meant to make anyone uncomfortable, I never meant to make chonny uncomfortable i never meant to do ANYTHING wrong. I didnt think i was doing anything wrong. I didnt do anything wrong by the rules. IT WAS ALL PRIVATE. it was all JOKES. other people (CORDIAL) literally make hms nsfw jokes (AND JUST NSFW) about HMS in PUBLIC and get less backlash than i did? like are you serious? what is this favoritism? what did i even do wrong against the rules or in general if we just fucking allow this stuff?

you all act like im a piece of shit and problematic for what I did. but, I wasnt sexualizing chonny jash. I wasnt making anyone uncomfortable. I wasnt being weird in public. I was just a stupid kid bro, I know what I did was wrong. I'm sorry if you want to hear. i havent erped or done anything sexual since that whole thing.. ESPECIALLY NOT WITH CHONNY JASH!!! i dont even rp HMS in general AT ALL and avoid it outside of my roblox group + youtube channel.

Seriously guys It's been a fucking year I'm tired of you dragging my name when you dont know the whole story. you only know the things said by sal and the people who got me banned and they're ALL FUCKING WEIRDER THAN ME.

they fucking ran into something that wasnt their business, they stole screenshots from a groupchat they werent even in and fucking plotted getting us banned for like a week or two? like how odd are you? cordial's weird. cordial did / does the same shit i did that got me banned BUT WORSE. cordial does even more weird shit I can't disclose because the person who came out to me asked me not to. i quite literally was a scapegoat for this fucking weirdos and im so tired of having my name dragged because of them.

now, Sal?? sals a fucking weirdo too. like how are you the owner of a fucking huge fan server and when your server member gets wrongfully banned you continuously TALK SHIT IN PUBLIC CHAT ABOUT THE WHOLE SITUATION? what kind of a fucking owner are you? you really sat there telling EVERYONE about the situation, dragging my name, and for what. because you were bored? you're a fucking adult and im a minor. need i bring up the weird shit you say in general chat too? i remember seeing you saying weird shit about a server member wearing a collar. fucking creep. now lets talk about the other admins!

who are you—fucking adults when the whole situation was with minros—to ban us out of fucking no where when it wasnt against the rules and private. then fucking drag our names with it. YOU ARE ADULTS. WE ARE KIDS. WE WERE DUMB KIDS. mind your fucking business instead of making it a whole big deal and making everyone hate us for over a fucking year.

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO STRESS THIS? WE. WERE. DUMB. KIDS. I'M SORRY! I AM. If i made you uncomfortable, tell me! i will personally respond and give you a fucking apology and im 100% serious bro just stop treating me like im a fucking monster.

all I ever wanted to fucking do was make you people laugh and have fun with you then you fucking get me banned and drag my name and call me problematic when the shit i did WASNT EVEN BAD.

i dont care, if you forgive me i'll forgive you and we can forget everything but you have to fucking see my side of the story. you have to look me in the eyes and understand where im coming from; if you're even willing. i dont hate any of you, I still love the community (maybe not chonny jash as much just because I still feel guilty..) and I just wish I could come back and be accepted for the funny gal I once was known as.

I didnt know I was doing anything wrong, not until I was fucking banned out of the blue without being asked my side of the story. until I got that banned message with no context, without a fucking explanation without ANY reasoning or reaching out to me. suddenly everyone I loved in the server where I met all of my friends hated me and thought I was problematic?? i was so fucking sad and confused and nobody gave a SHIT about me.

ur server died and sucks since u banned me btw should've minded your FUCKING BUSINESS. but thats besides the point,

you mods suck. the people who got me banned, suck. the people who slander my name when you dont understand, SUCK!!! and im sorry. im sorry for everything, im sorry for making you uncomfortable and upset, even if I was wronged. I dont know how many times I have to say it or beg to be understood or how many CJ fans I have to re-meet and tell me im really cool and didnt deserve what happened until you actually fucking understand and let me back in, because Im not a piece of shit! im probably the nicest person you'll ever meet, if you even fucking bother to meet me.

i forgive you, please just forgive me and recognize the fact that i aint a monster or problematic.. im just a stupid kid who didnt mean to do any wrong and ive grown since then.

I'll clear up one more thing, because as you know I'm dating mortis (THE MORTIS) and shes a lot more problematic than me:

mortis does her own things and when we started dating she didnt act like this and I know there's kindness in her thats why I dont leave her for her actions. I dont support all the stuff she does, not at all. I'm afraid to talk to her about it (hi mortis you're definitely reading this!) I love her, even though she does the stuff she does.

I'm pro-Palestine, and I love and support everyone regardless if I know you or not. in order to function, we have to all see eachother eye-to-eye. I don't think any of you are insane, or "mentally ill freaks", I love everyone. except you cordial fuck you but I do love everyone else. even if I have a differing opinion, or think a certain way about you or your behavior, I'm not gonna hate on you or go out of my way to bully you like she does and I apologize on her behalf for the things she has said.

separate me from her actions please, I love her and I could never bring myself to leave her unless she actually does physically hurt someone or do something else insanely bad (p.s. shes also pro-palestine she just um is weird about it. clearing that up)

I like chonny jash still (mostly CCCC), I like the community still, I love my girlfriend, I love everyone and I just want to make everyone happy and smile so please stop dragging my fucking name. I. AM. SORRYYY!!! I have so many people that can vouch for me in the community and outside of it, please for once just listen to me and them.

sorry for bad grammar/formatting and repeating myself I'm really trying to get my point across here and just thinking as I type.. (no this is not president mind returning, he wont ever be this is just routersims here and im trying to get people to like me again, maybe!!! maybe even unban me!!!!!!!! im fucking innocent!!!!!)

yea thats about it guys

as for anything with mortis, we have since broken up and i dont want to go back and edit that right now so yeah, its a whole separate thing and i dont wanna talk about it

ok bye

ps. adding chonny jash tag cuz my friends are telling me to, im not trying to get chonny to see it.. just adding this little note!

[elijahfanfics]

Coming out as trans to bakugo (FtM)

You and Bakugo were in elementary school together

He quickly, and for an unknown reason, attached himself to you

Nobody could touch you and if someone tried to befriend you and go over somewhere else? No, he wouldnt let them

You would wander around with his group by his side as he practically dragged you through the park doing everything together

You never minded following him, never a dull moment with his loud proclamations of being the best and how awesome All Might is

He absolutely hated Midoriya because he tried to be friends with you and him

Bakugo would always shew him away but he never seemed to leave

You would try to defend him because Bakugo never wanted to hurt you so he would just storm off and you would have to run after him until he felt better, returning to swing on the swings together

Mitski adored you, always talking about how you were such a cute girl, dressing you and Bakugo up in dressed and suits together

As you both got older, maybe 10 and 11 Bakugo found out that you never really liked the dresses so he demanded that she stop

In middle school he would make sure to always be by your side because he knew that you didnt like being left with the other students

You made it into UA together and were always together still

You cut your hair and did the UA paperwork yourself making sure to write the he/him pronouns and your preferred name

You knew that you would have to tell Katsuki, him demanding you call him by his first name a couple years back but you could never bring yourself to hear your first name from people

One night you call him and ask if he wants to go shopping the next day in preparation for UA

You walk through the large doors into the busy mall

Katsuki was sitting by the fountain and you approached him

"hey kit kat", he just looks over at you raising one eyebrow

""didnt i tell you to stop fuckin' callin' me that six years ago.", he grumbled, hugging you tightly as he took your hand as he always did

"You say that every time", you chuckle "so hey could we go to the store with hair dye and pins?", you ask in anticipation

He agrees and you make your way through the busy halls

Picking out the hair dyes and moving over to the pins, you pick up the trans flag pin and the he/him pronouns pin

Gently placing them on the counter Katsuki goes to pay, looking down to hand them back to you when he pauses

He picks them up slowly and turns to you, staring at the floor with teary eyes

He takes your face in his hand then he moves it to take your hand as you walk out the store together

"So... what do you want me to call you..." He asks quietly as you sit on a bench in a quieter corner of the mall

"y/n...", you say quietly

"y/n...", he repeats and you look up smiling a little

"fuckin knew it..", he mumbles as he stares at you softly

"really?" you reply confused

"well yeah, remember when we were 9 and you cut your hair short and came to me crying because you hated those dresses that my mom made for us?" he says, rubbing his thumb on the back of your hand gently

You chuckle at the memory with him, "yeah"

"you want knew clothes and boba?" he raises his eyebrows slightly as he stands up knowingly

You look up at him, wiping your eyes, "yeah"

When the time came to go to class at UA Katsuki made sure NOBODY called you the wrong name, especially Izuku

When you were in the changing rooms he would always make sure nobody looked at you or demanded they let you use the only cubical

You slowly came out to the class with Katsuki quietly cheering you on in his head

You talked to Aizawa about it first and of course he had already found out or took it well, having had trans students before he talked to you about whatever problems you had and comforting you with his hand on you head

It was always about people not being acceptant, your family or the class but he would always make you know that everything will be okay because he would make sure of it

People like Jirou and Kirishima were the next people you came out to, slowly spreading to the whole Bakusquad, and then to the girls and other friends, and then to the rest of the class

Iida was difficult, not understanding why and mis-gendering you on one or two occasions but with plenty of reprimanding from Bakugo and Aizawa, he got it eventually

Mineta was also annoying as he started trying to perv on you whilst you were changing so you were given a whole different space to change away from everyone

Katsuki was always there, backing you up and beating up people that didnt take it too well until they got it right again

Eventually everything settled and everything was okay <3

Komi! Reader x Tokyo Rev

Reader is a school beauty or known as the goddess in her state with a communication disorder (speech disorder)

In this story, reader knows the basics of martial arts and how to fight.

Jealous mikey.

Reader's family will not be introduced, has her own apartment

You r known for your beauty in the town, people often mistaken u as the goddess due to your spectacular appearance, people who liked u doesnt based on gender, u attracted both male and female. U really wanted to tell them thats not the case of u becoming a goddess in their eyes but theres one particular shortcoming u had since u were little, u have developed a speech disorder which prevented u from talking to people, even if u tried to talk, u will end up stuttering. Because of that, people will think of u as a cold-cool beauty who doesnt like to talk, which they find it cool for some reason-

But dont be too discouraged, u made a few new friends in school, emma, hinata, senju and yuzuha. 4 girls know about your speech disorder and decided to make friends with u which made u really happy about working towards the goal of making 100 friends. U love the girls more than anything and they find u adorable too, u told emma that u have to return some books to the library, she said she will be waiting for u at the gate and u nodded, senju couldnt come because she had a meeting with brahman and yuzuha had some classes on going, as for hinata she went out on a date with takemichi so its just left u and emma.

"Emma? What r u doing here?" mikey being surprised that emma is standing at the gate waiting for someone, he know the different schedule of the girls, he knows senju, hinata and yuzuha r busy so he was curious about who shes waiting, "shh just a minute until she comes, u'll see" emma gave mikey a small mysterious wink, making mikey being more curious about the 'she' emma was talking about. "cut the secret, emma tell us who is it-" "Y/n chann!!" draken was about to say something until emma cut him off by shouting your name and ran to u, the 2 boys turned their heads towards u as u r walking down the path to the school gate and they immediately frozed. U r very popular in school and they have heard of your beauty but has never seen it before, seeing your long pure dark-purple hair flows to your lower back and along with a pair of slanted eyes that r of the same colour just sends a blessing to them. "ken-chin..shes pretty.." mikey tugged on draken's sleeve, at this point draken was frozed too upon seeing the 'school goddess' that people mentioned about, even the teachers and the principle took a huge liking to u due to your intelligence, now they have saw it with their own eyes, they just stood there like a statue as emma held your hand in excitement upon seeing her beautiful friend. U r happy to see emma too while your face has a small blushed,

Emma："oh! Theres somebody i would like u to meet."

U："??"

Emma dragged u to the 2 boys who were still frozed in place, they just stare at u while emma just start introducing draken and mikey.

"this is manjiro sano, my brother, u can call him mikey, and thats ken Ryuguji, u can call him draken for short." u looked at the 2 boys and took out your notebook, mikey and draken was curious cause they have never seen anyone taking out a notebook after being introduced to someone, they looked at u writing something on your notebook and showed it to emma.

"U have a nice brother emma, address to them that my name is y/n komi and its nice to meet them, do tell them my condition so it wouldnt cause them some troubles in the future"

Emma chuckled as u look so cute to have a small blush on your face, she told mikey and draken about your name and your situation of having the condition, mikey had no idea how the condition works and draken had to explain it to him.

"ken-chin, whats a speech disorder?"

"speech disorder is basically a condition in which a person has problems creating or forming the speech sounds needed to communicate with others. I told u to atleast study and u were there getting into fights-"

"boo, ken chin dont embarrassed me infront of y/n chan..."

Mikey then walked up to u with cheeky smile and got closer to your face while patting u on the head, u blushed hard by the sudden interaction and covered your face with your hands.

U："(灬º 艸º灬)!!"

Mikey："y/n-chin, me and ken-chin will be your 5th and 6th friend, oh! U can come join toman, im sure u will make a lot more new friends there too! (/^∇^)/ "

Emma："aww whose in love nowwwww"

Draken："lol i call that love at first sight"

U："....." *blushed hard

U scribbled on your note book saying that u loved to be friends with them and for the first time ever, u tried to speak, u started with wanting to say a simple hi, what u meant to say was "konichiwa, mikey" but it came out with "ko-ko-ko-ko-ko-ko" mikey, draken and emma burst out laughing, not because they r making fun of your stuttering, but laughing because u r too adorable for them to handle, Especially your cute and soft little voice, emma hugged and praised u,

Emma："y/n chan improved so much! When we first met, she cant even say a single letter!"

Mikey："yea, draken can we go eat? Im hungry"

Draken："alright alright.."

Mikey："y/n chin is coming with us too right?"

U："...." *nodded

Emma："lets go to the same bakery! I heard they have some new ice cream!"

After having some snacks, mikey suggested that u can come hang out with him and his so called "gang", emma had tuition at the time so she left u with mikey and draken for them to take care of u, u were not so sure about the idea of being with them as u dont wanna cause any trouble for them, but the both of them reassured u with a smile, putting u at eased. U smiled back at them and they were so obsessed with it, mikey kept asking for more since he loved it so much and draken being a red head- u wrote on your notebook again.

"pls do not look at me, its making me feel embarrassed.."

U tilted your head to side, peeking out of your notebook with a heating red face. That gave those 2 a strike out of (yes) how cute u look, mikey immediately hugged u, draken just kept pulling him back because hes afraid that what mikey is doing will make u uncomfortable, but mikey just wont budged

Mikey："y/n chinn u r so adorablee!"

U："（・/////////・；）"

Draken："come on mikey, y/n is gonna feel uncomfortable"

Mikey："ehhhhh?? But y/n say she liked me..right y/n chin??"

Thinking for a moment, u nodded your head. Mikey is so overjoyed that u agree into liking him (as friends), but he wanted more than just like.

The 3 of u continue to walk down the road and came across a temple. U were confused about whats going on when mikey took your hand and walked up to the top of the temple, on the other side of the temple, u heard someone shouted "The toman president is here! SALUTE! BOW!"

"GOOD AFTERNOON, PRESIDENT!"

Mikey just looked at them from the top of the temple, he turned towards u, who was hiding behind draken from the sudden noise, mikey just chuckled "its okay y/n chin, meet my gang, toman" after saying that he turned towards the gang.

"Attention! I have some announcement to make."

All the members looked up towards mikey, waiting for his next announcement or command.

"i have bought someone with me, yall better not lay a dirty finger on her or else we r gonna get very nasty Got it?"

"YES SIR!"

Mikey held your hand, u stepped forward and u r now facing at a huge crowd with over or even more than a 100 people.

"whooaa shes so beautiful.."

"our president is so lucky to meet her.."

"i wonder if she is single"

Seeing so many people made u shivered out of nervous, mikey noticed it and held your hands even tighter, that movement alone had calm u down for a bit. After making sure u r okay, mikey then turned his head to toman.

Mikey："This is y/n komi, now shes the princess of toman and i know most of u had heard her name in school, im gonna make it very clear, right here and right now, Shes mine, if i know any of u tries to be funny about getting between me and her, ill beat the ass out of u. Understood?"

"y/n komi..?? Isnt she the school goddess??"

"my god, president is just so lucky.."

"i cant stop staring shes just so pretty.."

At this point, everyone was just so mesmerized by your fragile beauty to even pay full attention to mikey's words, It's still up to draken to bring them to their senses.

"R U GUYS DEAF? DID U NOT HEAR THE PRESIDENT'S WORDS??"

"YES SIR!"

U："...." *shivered*

U were just so confused at this point, what does mikey mean by "shes mine?", "princess of toman?", u kept thinking to yourself and u didnt hear mikey calling out to u.

Mikey："y/n chin? Hello? Earth to y/n!"

U："!"

Mikey："its our training time now, do u wanna watch? U can sit on that bench there."

U：*nodded*

U were sitting on a bench comfortably, with mikey and draken standing by your sides while supervising the gang members as they do their push ups and sit ups. The members gave their best shot than before knowing that the school goddess is looking at them right now, i mean, who dont wanna look and gave in their best when the person they like is infront of them. Draken was puzzled about the sudden motivation, but mikey knows that they r doing their best is because u r watching them.

U sat there, quietly watch them as they continue to train but u had something on your mind, draken noticed it and asked if u needed anything, u wrote down on your notebook and showed it to him.

"I have noticed a certain mis-posture of the fighting stands in Tadaaki san's, may i have the permission to correct them?"

He looked at u with a smile

Draken："u r toman's princess, pls do whatever as u like, dont be so casual, be a bit comfortable with us."

He then turned to mikey

Draken："oi, mikey, y/n said she wanted to have a talk with tadaaki"

Mikey："Everyone, stopped for a moment"

Everyone immediately stop what they r doing and turned their heads towards your directions, who is walking down the temple stairs towards the guy, man that guy is nervous as heck when the goddess in his heart approached him, Mikey shouted from the top of the temple.

"Oi, taddaki, show her your stands, she has some teachings for u."

Tadaaki immediately put on his stands, u bend down to look at his arms and hand placement, fingers tucked on your chin while thinking of something, welp, the guy really wanted this moment to stop, his goddess, standing right near him, he can feel u breathing and hear your heartbeat, hes face is red as hell.

Without saying anything, u held his arm softly and put it in the right place of the stands, u started teaching him the right ways of using the posture and even demonstrate it to him, surprisingly without u saying anything, he seems to understand what u r trying to teach him, everyone just looked at u both in dead silent (I can feel the jealousy here-). Finally getting it right, u patted him on the head, looking at him in the eye and gave him a 'u did it!' expression. The gang members looked at the interaction with full jealousy and rage, Especially mikey, it pissed him off that u r being so closed to that guy, patted that guy when u havent even pat him yet. Feeling irritated , he called out to u.

Mikey："y/n chin, pls come back now"

U："(▰╹◡╹▰)"

Tadaaki just wanted to spend some more time with u when he felt a glare and met the eyes of the raging mikey, shiver went down his spine, u ran to mikey with the most innocent face ever, and thats what he likes to see, he held u closer as he doesnt wanna let go of u anymore.

"Stop looking now, Continue!"

"Yes sir!"

"theres my baby!"

U turned around and see emma with yuzuha waving at u, u r so excited to see the girls and wanting to give them a hug, but mikey just cling onto u, making u hard to move, he even burried his face into the crook of your neck, that alone made u flustered

U："◐∇◐a ;;"

Mikey："nope im not letting y/n chin go.."

Emma："Mikey! Stop clinging onto my baby! Let her go this instant! (ง°̀ﾛ°́)ง"

Yuzuha："yea! U have your time with her, shes ours now! (●｀Д´)╭☞"

Draken："just keep it down.."

SORRY ILL CONTINUE THIS SERIES SOONER OR LATER, I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO INTRODUCE THE OTHER TOMAN FOUNDERS ITS LIKE 1AM HERE-

[pbandjesse]

I was very worried about today. Between James leaving for Las Vegas and a field trip with over 100 4th graders. I was nervous. But it ended up being just a really lovely day. Like I'm exhausted. But it was a really good day.

I slept okay. I slept through my alarm. Which is fine. James laid with me and I just held their sweet face. And they stroked my cheek and I was mostly asleep but it was so sweet. When I finally was awake enough I realized it was 715. Oops. No rush really except traffic.

I would get dressed. Nothing special. I knew I was going to be outside most of the day doing the field trip and I didn't want to be cold so it was lots of layers.

James and me hugged a lot before I left. It was hard to say goodbye when we won't see each other until Monday. I was so distracted I forgot my work keys and had to go back but I got an extra kiss so that was worth it.

I did go to the correct car today. And the drive was not great. Literally sitting on 83 at a dead stop. But it was fine. It was whatever. I still beat everyone else by almost an hour.

When I got to camp I dropped off my things and grabbed the gator keys, and the Erie and Alaskan keys, and was off. Driving fast and whipping around.

I went to the Erie first. Collected my program box and drove to the feild to set up. I was sure that my eagle puppet was in the Yukon basement and I would use that as a prop. So I was very annoyed when I went all the way up there and went through multiple boxes and couldn't find it! Very annoying.

While I was up there I got to say hello to the spring break service workers who were staying up there. They were leaving today and they did such a nice job cleaning everything up there. And they were all very smiley and I thought that was so sweet. I'm sorry I didn't get to know them more! The week was just to busy! For everyone.

I would go to the art building next to see if I had any bird plushies. I had brought a duck and a bat from home. But for some reason I just don't really have bird plushies! I would find the Chicken purse that James's cousin gave me for Christmas. Perfect.

I tied name tags to each stuffed animal so we could use them as representation. And once everything was set up I went to warm up on the office.

I had my breakfast and played on my phone. People slowly started to come in. And when Elizabeth got there she printed the schedule and my location was different! Oops.

She said I could stay in the field but instead, since I had time, I would just go and move my set up.

I dragged it over to the trading post and that ended up being so much better because I could utilize the picnic tables for each group. I would pop over to the lodge and got the white board and a small table and I used them to set up the materials and have a score board for the game.

And then it was just time to wait.

The group was supposed to be there at 1010. They got there at 1030. This was not good. We had already had to chop an hour off of the end of the day because of their buses. So we had to then get everyone inside and we wouldnt even get our first program started until 1045. This was rough. But we would make it work.

I was really worried about how large the groups were but for real they were so good. And it was because the teachers were on it. They had such a good handle on their group and even when we were being loud and silly we were able to get control back and it made the day go really well. It helped that I'm pretty good at this program.

I would go over what a bird of pray is. What a predator is. What makes a bird of pray. And then introduced the 4 local birds. They all got really giggly about my stand in stuffies. Those stuffies for so many hugs today which was very sweet.

We had a huge game board with different categories and I would read out the features and they would place the stuffie for their group. And I think they really enjoyed this game. Lots of laughs and participating and I got to go over basically everything, even with the shortened program rotations.

This was the first time I did it this way. With a score board and the stuffed animal stand ins. And that just worked so well. Like if I do this program again this is the way I want to do it because it made it so much more fun for me because I wasn't getting confused. It was great.

Lunch would come and I went back to the office, after getting some information to Elizabeth and an updated timeline to the lead teacher, and had my taco and some snacks. It was a short lunch. But that was okay.

The afternoon was good too. The groups were a little more energetic and it was a little harder to refocus. And some of the parents were googling the answers to share with their kids?? Strange. But it was still fun. It also just went really quick. Because soon it was time for them to go.

I got to chat with some teachers as they were packing up and they said my program was one of their favorites because I had so many facts. And that made me feel really nice.

I volunteered to clean the bathrooms. So I jumped right into that. Collecting trash and wiping everything down. And once I was finished all of those I would help fold up all the chairs.

My wrist is really hurting again and I wasn't willing to push myself with carrying the chairs and tables and everyone was understanding. So I swept and wiped down tables and got the small signs folded for the tables.

It was a lot of work. We were getting set up for the wedding open house tomorrow. I'm not going to that one but I really hope it's a good time! I would drive the gator over to the Alaskans to check that they were all clean and collected the trash there. Then to the pool house to do the same. Before I went back to the office to drop off some stuff and get the trash from there too. I talked to Heather for a few minutes before I went back to the lodge.

I continued to help there for a bit. But once they ran out of stuff I could actually help with I drove me and Nick back to the pool house so he could collect some tables and I could clean the floor.

Once I was done that I was kind of to tired and hungry to do much else. But that was fine. It was almost the end of the day. I would get to meet one of the main people organizing the music festival and Heather talked me up about how I'm managing the venders this year and how I do markets and help with the farmers market and I am excited to really jump into that planning. I am excited for the music festival. I didn't get to be there last year for the first one because we were in our honeymoon! Which I wouldn't have traded for anything but I am excited that this year we will be in town.

I would check in with everyone before I left for the day. But there was nothing else for me to do. I decided that I wanted to go to the goodwill and see if the human size Polly pocket shoes were still there. I had been thinking about them since I was there last week.

So I headed right over there and found them right away. The tag was a bit messed up so I went to check with a worker if they could still sell them because goodwill is so weird about their tags. And when I went to ask her she accidentally hit herself in the face wit a hanger and we laughed together but I still checked to make sure she wasn't actually hurt. She also said that they would just scan something that was the same price. Thank you guys you're the best.

I actually had a really good haul. I got another fleece. This one is JCrew! And I really like the blue. And I got a coat rack for James that says James which I think is hilarious. I found some other things. Like a star rack. And a tag for Sweetp. And a Winnie the Pooh trash can. And it was just fun.

The silliest thing I got was a fish on a plate sculpture?? When I went to buy everything and older lady helped me when I dropped the one rack and then she was like. The fish!! And I was like I know right??? And would show her my fish knife painting and she loved it and told me about all her food themed art in her kitchen and it was just such a sweet moment. I love moments like that.

I went home after that. And was home by 5. I brought everything inside and got things put away. It was weird not having James there. I cuddled with Sweetp and checked on my aquatics. And after having a snack I would do the dishes and put things away. Fed everyone. Vacuumed. Just got myself settled.

I would have a nice evening. Just hanging out in the couch and watching videos. Chilling with sweetp. It was a little lonely but it was also just nice being home and taking care of myself.

I attempted to take a bath by filling a small bucket with hot sink water approximately 30 times. And it was very shallow but it was warm at least and I had a pretty nice bath in the end.

And now I am just hanging out. I had some ice cream. I'm texting with James. Who did some sports betting! And it staying in a flamingo themed hotel. They are a few hours behind but seem to be having fun. Even if Las Vegas is overstimulating. I'm glad they are having fun with friends and I cant wait to hear more about it.

Now though I think I'm going to go brush my teeth and start going to sleep. Tomorrow I have my second printmaking class of the week. This time with the national guard. And that's not even the end of my teaching this week because I'm going to sub at art with a heart on Sunday which I'm thrilled about. I miss my class and I'm still really bummed to not be their teacher every week. I hope they are excited to see me too.

I really hope tomorrow is fun. I hope you all have a great night and take care of yourselves. I love you all. Goodnight!

Dude I'm literally inlove with the idea of dottore being envious of sohreh instead of being inlove with her 🙏

Zandik heard about the strong bond between you and sohreh throughout the halls in the akademiya, people calling you and sohreh a couple, everyone viewing the both of you as romantic instead of platonic. Zandik wouldn't and could not humour the idea of you and her being together, you and he were bestfriends, you both were practically dating!! He knew you wouldn't leave him for her, but it didn't stop him from wondering what she had that he didn't.

Sohreh would often come looking for you in hopes that you were alone and willing to hangout with her, but even when you were with zandik she would come snatching you away. And if she couldn't take you away from him, she'd just hang out with the two of you unannounced, inviting herself when the two of you were alone together. It was clear she wanted to see you, but she'd bother zandik aswell as a way to entertain herself when you weren't available. In zandik's eyes, he found her behavior disturbing and extremely sad. He often ignored her, and if he didn't, he'd give a scoff.

But during it all, he questioned on why you had decided to become friends with her when you had him. It was a thought that often made him ponder with confliction. Surely you wouldn't abandon him for the likes of her! You wouldnt leave him.. not like everybody else atleast.

It was only when he and sohreh got to actually talking did he realise what she really wanted..

What do you think kai?? I'd like to hear your thoughts on this 🪤

STOPPP THATS SUCH A BIG BRAIN THOUGHT.... he'd act so WEIRD about it too!! he's dragging you away whenever he spots sohreh before she could even get to you!! he'd always say you two were busy even though you're literally out of the akademiya about to go to a cafe,,

behind you, he'd be sneering at sohreh (though when you look back at him, he'd have a black expression or reading a book). i think sohreh would notice it easily and would 100% provoke him in the most subtle ways !! and he can't do anything about it because he most certainly not act out infront of you! he tries to tolerate it because she's apparently your friend and you'll probably be sad if something were to happen to her.

he absolutely hates when you let yourself get snatched away by sohreh. like excuse me??? we are hanging out!! why are you choosing her instead of him??? he didn't do anything wrong right?? be as sociable as you want with others, he doesn't feel any sort of jealousy towards them. but sohreh? the sight of her makes his blood boil ! (mostly because of the 'dating' rumors)

you're breaking his heart 🥺🥺when was the last time you two were actually alone together to hangout!! it's always him, you and sohreh (and she's uninvited too!!) zandik 100% puts his trust on you, but he doesn't trust sohreh >:(( she's taking you away from him! (and it's clear that she is, because he's ALWAYS butting in) you're not gonna leave him but... he's a little worried ok!!

her fate doesn't really change whether he finds out her true intentions. get his attention? to finally make you as her's? she is still a threat towards his work being found out by the akademiya if she couldn't keep her mouth shut 🤷‍♂️ he just hopes you'd understand why he did it , afterall, you could lose him if he was found out!! you wouldn't like that, would you?? you still have zandik !! 🥰🥰

now she's gone, would you like to hear about his recent project? it's been a while since you've sat down together to talk about his progress anyways!

[narwhalandchill]

ok misc stream thoughts!!!

ANYWAY livestream over nice 30 pulls of aventurine funds for anni!!!! they didnt do anything insane but honestly it was kinda cope to expect them to, ratio for free was clearly a more of a spontaneous move and hes available throughout anniversary anyway so the "another 5*" were.... a little over the top im sorry wjkjwdjkwdjk altho i wouldnt have complained obviously. a free himeko or sth couldve been on theme for the cosmodussy event but eh cant be helped

im actually glad for the skippability of the reruns 😭😭 like i have luocha n jingliu (+ LC for latter) so by skipping acheron for now im gonna have a nice time getting aventurine and most likely his LC (2/3 of his 4* LC selection is so sad tho), love that fucker hope he gets to do proper mayhem in story too. cool death talk please dont actually die yourself for real for real tho i will be sad. like i do think its based of aventurine to pull off a stunt that appears to be what we in the business might call a certified chapter 5 komaeda moment but. ahahaha nooo dont actually die youre such a funny hat man .

(also sick boss form is sick but . bootleg FL im sorry aventurine. they hit perfection already and theyre never fucking topping the galaxy cape cyclops eye beak mask drip i swear JSWJWJDKWJKDWJK but also yes me biased? in favor of that ginger? i could never)

but it seems ill have a solid time getting aventurine and saving up for now??? since i dont think im too interested in robin or boothill either. i was kinda worried topaz' rerun would be in 2.1 for IPC antics with aventurine bc i am kinda curious abt pulling for her but now its gonna be 2.2 at the earliest so. Phew

the stream ran a bit too long lmao but like overall i tend to like the dev discussions so most of it was still neat, altho downside of dev streams is that not knowing chinese i cant just like. afk and listen on headphones and go get water or something 💀💀 and they were definitely dragging stuff out on purpose no way they werent but eh. people will live its just bideo game livestream. and like these folks do hard work on the game they can yap about what they do sometimes its only right lmao

leakers public shaming session was definitely a jumpscare but i do genuinely empathize w shaoji on that one. like. ive always been one for kit + banner leaks first and foremost and story leaks just. i dont care for them much. ive had my share of looking at them occasionally but i definitely agree with the way story leaks either by themselves or when misconstrued and misinterpreted really fucking mess with the intended experience for any given story and how that must feel like shit for the writers. like if story leaks stopped happening altogether id be perfectly content. and thats just ppl who look at story leaks on purpose cuz. im not going to even begin w how like. yes the leaks subreddits and most big leakers do spoiler warnings and keep the story stuff spoilered. but then theres literally the entire rest of the internet where shit gets spread untagged and without warnings the second they are posted anywhere at all and how that fucking ruins peoples experiences. like its 1 thing to click at a spoiler tagged post knowingly and get ur experience messed up with. but when u dont even want to see it its rly fucking bad and i v well understand condemning all story leaks (even those properly flagged) just on that basis alone. but yeah actually felt bad for him there and see where he was coming from for sure, even as a consumer of leaks

ok well that sure was a wall of text. didnt expect to write that much JWJKWJKDDWJK but ya

Anyway. biggest priority is holding strong w skipping acheron as sick as her animations are but def looking forward to her teaser and the animated short. like . even with the black swan dykery. (that was a fucking jumpscare too). i dont need her rn. despite how cool she is 😭😭

& also have to say im v happy they clarified their stance on hi3rd references like. the way theyre going abt it is absolutely how it should be going. hsr by nature is more directly linked to hi3rd like honkai is in the name but its such a dumbass idea (like some fan takes out there....) to want the stories of hsr depend on another games lore. rewarding old fans with easter eggs and tidbits is perfectly fine and im even interested in seeing where they go with acherons obvious raiden situation - especially knowing theyre not about to ruin their own story with "it was hi3rd all along!" (not that i ever rly thought theyd seriously blunder that bad lmao 💀) . so yea thats neat

i think story wise im not gonna say much of my thoughts bc unfortunately i have clicked on like. a leak or four. not the major stuff i dont think but enough that commenting on stuff w some of the things im aware of in the periphery is going to tint stuff . but im still excited to see where things go!!!

AAND OH. ACTUALLY i do have one more thing . so the multiple POV thing being actually implemented is SOOOO good im so fucking happy theyre committing to it being a thing 😭😭😭 like SO many story pitfalls can be avoided by just letting it be that TB doesnt need to be fucking everywhere a major thing happens as the centerpiece of events so we as players can see it. like it gives a way of showing different events and sides of characters in a much more natural manner its sooo good that theyre implementing it already. like this alone has me in such high hopes for the story going forward. like yea theyve branched from our POV before already and in penacony as well but expanding on it even more is 100% the correct way forward

last thing: god they did jingliu so dirty in her concert illustration. WHAT is she wearing 💀💀💀anyway yeah lesgo 2.1 its cool

i lied real last thing: siobhan . siobhan i would do anything---

[dearweirdme]

This whole dating rumor only made jn an easy target. She’s called names and it seems that she’s in a spotlight now. I think whether the rumor is true or not, it only benefits her. However, the attention that she’s been getting is so negative. Now people notice how bad she sings and performs, how awful some of her outfits are, how she’s promoting a p*rn show, how she’s friends with problematic people, how she’s hopping from one guy to another, in short, people sl*tshame her. Only her fans hype the rumor, while kths and other armys are dragging her to hell and back. I wonder if she knows everything people have been saying about her. It’s not doing good for her image. If Tae is really dating her, I wonder how he feels about all this. Wouldnt it be hurtful for him, too? He seemed like he doesnt care, though, but that’s just coz Tae is a private person so we’ll never know.

Hi anon!

Let me show you a bit of business perspective. So there’s basically three different groups at play here. Blinks, armies, and the general public. From what I’ve seen, Blinks mostly have Jennie’s back and that is probably what matters most to her. Although Tae has been getting quite some hate as well, I feel his fans also still have his back. Then there’s the general public. Those are neither army nor Blink and will not be aware of most of the hate and tormoil that’s going on within these two fandoms. All they will hear is that one huge star is possibly dating another huge star.. but nothing is for sure yet. It peaks their interest. And general public is most likely who they are targeting here. New fans, new people to go watch Jennie’s HBO series and buy Blackpink albums, new people to buy Tae’s album when it get out. Pr for fans that are already there is different from pr for getting new fans. This pr-relationship is clearly to gain more popularity. Pr for already existing fans is more like fansigns, vlives, photoshoots.

And also… they’ve got two huge fandoms attention on them 24/7… they don’t care if it’s hateful at times.. attention means money (and I suspect Jennie knows how to avoid social media hate, she won’t be scrolling Twitter right now).

Tae did not seem bothered at all during his short live. I believe If Tae were actually dating her, He would not let things go like this.

[mydemonsdrivealimo]

Idk if you've talked about it before but what's Ethan and Jensen relationship like in your HC?

i really havent talked about it ngl (aka this is going to be long af)

jensen respects ethans professional opinions, but i think some of that started to fade when he came to edenbrook and actually got to work with him. his sour demeanor towards colleagues, the occasional outbursts about work, the clear favoritism in the competition—jensen didnt appreciate any of it. they're already working in one of the most stressful careers out there, and ethans inability to work with the majority of his colleagues was a big problem for jensen. even though the favoritism was towards jensen, that was another thing that he felt had no place in a professional space. there were good moments, yes, but ethan was the definition of Too Much for jensen.

listen, jensen isnt a ray of sunshine either, but he tries, especially in the beginning. yes, interns are interns, but most of them are still trying their best under a lot of pressure. jensen wouldnt ask to give them a pass, of course, but a little compassion goes a long way. he would never tell ethan to change—its none of his business, frankly—but keeping the unnecessarily annoyed and bothered comments to himself would be appreciated (theres a big difference between thinking something and saying it).

jensens job wasnt to make him pleasant, personable, or likable for his colleagues, and it never will be. ethan was cold, obnoxious, and honestly pretty rude in the beginning, to the point where jensen never wanted to get to know him better. sure, he could get through a day of work with him, but he needed time outside of it to find him tolerable for the next. he never expected him to become nice overnight, but for someone so smart, he would think he'd know better, more conducive ways to turning out good doctors.

also, on a more personal level, jensen couldnt relate to him in any way. ethans hobbies are coffee and the opera, neither of which jensen is interested in nor are they casual/cheap things available to people living on a budget. jensen grew up with the least amount of money you can, and was damn lucky to even get to college or all the way through high school, and ethans lifestyle in no way leaves room for that. if they wouldve talked more im sure they couldve related on some level with ethans mom leaving, but both of their stubbornness put together was never going to let that happen.

on some level, ethan also made jensen uncomfortable with that. i cant think of a time throughout the books where jensen ever wouldve felt safe talking to ethan about how he grew up. maybe a vague couple comments when ethans mom came around, but not the extent of true, valuable details. another piece of my hc is that, during the competition when landry was sabotaging mc, he dragged up a few articles from when jensen was arrested when he was younger and sent them to ethan. ethan showed them to harper and they called jensen in to practically interrogate him about it and why he "hid them" in his application. they didnt bother looking into it more than that where they wouldve seen that it had been sealed. it put jensen off severly because they immediately assumed the worst of him.

some of its jensens fault, some of its ethans, but either way they never click as well as many mcs do. i actually think ethan really liked jensen once he got over the initial mistrust just from him being an intern, but by then he had already spoiled any chance at them being friends. (i havent really decided if ethan was ever romantically interested in jensen, but im not ruling it out)

Hii It's my first time Requesting and if they're closed ignore! Could I request Octo Trio x Reader whose like Cala maria? Like when they're in the water they get really big

Okay okay okay, so this took a while to think about because I had no idea how to write it. Like at all.

And I even ended up watching markiplier’s cuphead gameplay because of it 🙈 and this also inspired my whale shark y/n scenarios! I hope I did these okay 🙇🏻

i hope you like it! and tysm for requesting 😻😻 mwah mwah

cw: cursing, link of raccoon being flung, they/them pronouns!

He already knew you were gonna be something big- as you tower over himself and the twins.

And frankly, he was excited to find out

Okay, I can say for sure that his face turns SCARLET when he first sees your merform. That you're much, much larger than him that you could easily crush him without a second thought

👁👁

And since we know that Azul is bigger than the twins in water (unlike on land), he did feel a little… threatened

but since it's you it's okay 😻

But it's great for business!

I think that you’re that last resort for some… bothersome customers... like you won't even do anything but stare at them…

silently

🧍🏻

SIMP IN DISGUISE

I see him cuddling up to you in his octo form if there isn't an octo-pot available/near :(

Of course, you coddle your little boyfie :(( when he’s in a mood or just stressed you offer a big ol' hug and just listen to him rant

But he's Azul, and has insecurities- so he'll use this to scare potential ‘suitors’

He’ll feign sadness, have you scoop him up into your arms, and fucking SMIRKS at the other guy

DEFINITELY makes the decapitating motion while you're just like :) happily holding your scheming boyfriend

Mama Azul APPROVES she’s a big lady. Much bigger than Azul

And she just LOVES the fact that you're a whale shark/ Since you eat a lot she has you as the official taste tester! She values your opinion a lot, as she’ll be your mother in law in the very very near future 👁👁

Azul and his mom plan out the wedding in advance- like years in advance- like so in advance they're also planning your first year anniversary

Like- girly will evaluate your every move. Having a checklist and all as she makes sure you’re good for her baby zuzu (she adds 20 points just because you're a whale shark)

He has scary dog privileges

Like if someone gives him trouble over vacation- and before he can even threaten to wipe out their entire bloodline, you’ll just pop up behind him, red smeared on the corner of your lips as you tell them to ‘leave’

(It was his mom’s new jam recipe!)

𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐝

Oh my god, it's spiderman! Spiderman! It’s spider-man!

Oh my god. Personal simp

Like okay, okay, okay.

You're tall, hot, and scary. What more could Floyd ask for in a partner??

When people hear about what kind of merperson you are, they run for the hills.

I mean, with those razor-sharp teeth, blank eyes, and looming presence, I wouldnt wanna be around a great white shark merfolk either.

Though you're not as tall as the other y/n’s, you’re still tall (great whites grow to be over 10 feet. Females are 15-21 and males are 11-13. )

But you fall on the scale of being around 22 feet in the water. And 6’3 on land!

When I tell you it was love at first sight for Floyd. I mean it. He would always drag you off (per your dismay) and bring you along with his shenanigans

Literally, the girl who’s like “oh y/n you're so funny😹😹😹” when you haven't even done anything

Kinda like an extrovert adopting an introvert since you're more prone to be alone. By choice of course, as that’s how you were raised in the sea.

Though I think sometimes Floyd will either respect it or just not give a shit

Like- I mostly see him hanging out with you. Maybe you're reading or just scrolling through your phone as Floyd sits there lazily talking about his day and how he annoyed the shit outta riddle

your occasionally inputs only egg him on

Y’all fucking bite the shit out of each other. 🧍🏻

LIKE OKAY LISTEN- after an impromptu make-out session he walked out looking like he was mauled by a bear

While you walked out looking like you barely managed to escape an axe murderer

Date people who’re willing to bite you 🤞

You play volleyball. And you’re fucking good at it.

I can imagine Floyd helping you practice. Like where your both peppering, but you're both just- spiking at each other.

(Mark my words I’m gonna make separate headcanons for him and his great white hottie)

But in water- he’s a fucking gnat. Like he’s swimming around you every which way as you're just cruising along

Will annoy the shit out of you.

Like you're not used to having this kind of company, especially in the water. But he loves it. Loves how he can scare people with just a mention of your name.

Loves the attention he gets as well.

Just everything about it he loves.

Except when he’s in a bad mood.

You’ll take your little Floyd, put him vertically on your back, and just swim.

But if he’s being especially pissy one day while he's on your back, sulking, you'll start spending up, your boyfriend slipping a bit as you’ll spy hop out of the water and fucking FLING HIM

LIKE HE GOES FLYING OFF INTO THE DISTANCE SPINNING IN THE AIR

AND THEN HE’LL JUST- COME BACK, BEGGING YOU TO DO IT AGAIN

More than once has he asked you to fling him on land so he can

1. Freak out his fellow students by playing zombie

2. Freak out his fellow students by pretending to be a fish out of water. Then attempting to drag them into the water when close enough

Everyone and their mother regrets bringing you two together.

*Floyd standing in front of the ocean*

“Hey babe”

*25” great white shark emerging from the water like the lost city of Atlantis

“Hey”

Someone has pissed themselves in your presence OUIBWERFHIGR

Ah yes, Jade and his Orca lover😁

😟

No

Oh god no

The WORST absolute combo

Between jade’s… charming personality, height, and teeth- and your mischievous behavior, large size, and (once again) sharp teeth

You're avoided like the plague

Sometimes, people feel like you're mixed up

“Shouldn’t Floyd be dating the orca while Jade dates the shark?”

You and Floyd's partner are like night and day. And you could understand why they would think that.

They’re more reserve, patient, and sometimes assertive. While you're more sociable, affectionate, and charming… you think they’re dead wrong

Cause, on one hand, you and Floyd tend to clash. Sometimes, while Floyd’s s/o and jade have one-sided conversations (or telepathic ones)

don't let them talk cause they'll plot world domination...

“hey orca- why do they keep looking at us like that”

“couldn’t tell me”

But overall, you love your boyfriend, and he loves you even more. You kind of remind him of his brother with all the hijacks you pull.

But when you're in water, oh my god- he falls in love all over again

You're a bully. Let’s get that straight, when you see another merfolk minding their own business, you both share a look and immediately- like with the snap of a finger, start harassing them.

AND YALL JUST GIGGLE, SWIMMING AWAY WHEN THEY THREATEN TO CALL THE COPS-

He loves your dynamic, loves how you value personal relationships and how much you care for your family

HAS met your family. Your two moms welcoming him with open… hands? It was kinda weird, 'cause you're all so much bigger than him that he couldn’t hug them without it seeming awkward.

WILL use your height in and out of water for his advantage.

I think he might be a little bitter about how you're so much taller than him, but that ends when he sees you struggling to do normal things

Like when you get stuck in the rocks underwater, not able to go to half shops since you can't even fit your arm through the door.

And even on land, you're constantly bumping your head on doors, getting suck in hallways, pouting at him to help you.

Like Floyd, he has recreated that moment. But in different fonts

Like okay- setting the scene

Imagine some customers are trying to give Jade a harsh time in the lounge. By this time Floyd dipped, Azul's in his office (said yall could handle it) and the other employees didn’t know what to do.

Of course, you were in the lounge, trying to take a quick snooze before your shift. But accidentally eavesdropping on your boyfriend and his new 'friends'

And when Jade finally backed up against the glass, monkey grin stretched upon his face as he knocked on the glass saying ‘babe’

They were meant with a singular eye. First looking up, then snapping to them as they stood frozen in fear.

Jade, chuckling, slowly walked towards them as you you swam by giving them a preview of your body that never seemed to end…

Until it did

Bending down towards them, jade places a hand on two of their shoulders, the others watching the tank intently as Jade only whispered one thing.

“Run”

And before they even had the chance, you emerged from the water's surface. Water ran off your ink and snow-stained body, as you smiled eerily at them.

Before you could even open their mouth, they sprinted out the door, pants a little wet as they promised to never come here again.

There was a brief silence until you started laughing- cackling hysterically.

The employees and regulars joining in as they were used to this scenario.

Jade only chuckled, reaching up to caress your hand. Silently telling you how you did well.

“I didn’t even say anything” you huffed, picking at your ear. Jade was about to say something until a loud sigh was heard

“Really y/n?” Again?” Azul groaned, looking at the water stains around the tank.

You both shared a look, then shrugged. “It was the most efficient way to handle rowdy customers. Besides-” he gazed at you, who was bored out of your mind, leaning against the glass.

“Something tells me we won't have any problems for a long while”

I see him catching a ride on you. When you want to spy hop he’ll hold onto your dorsal fluke and just enjoy the view of the endless oceans and the setting horizon.

( curse you anon! I now making separate Jade and Floyd scenarios 👿) /lh

My Atsumu headcanons

a/n: some headcanons that have been on my mind of my favorite boy

growing up his dad often worked, so in turn he spent a lot of time with his mom (making him a true momma’s boy)

when him and Osamu were 5 they would hold “magic” shows for their mom. It mainly consisted of Atsumu going behind a wall and Osamu popping out of the other side.

Atsumu suffered from terrible nightmares as a kid,so when Osamu didn’t wake up he would go into his parents room and snuggle in right between him mom and dad. He felt safe there.

As they got older their mom got to busy to watch them all the time so she signed them up for volleyball and they immediately fell in love

The twins loved seeing their mom proud of them at games (especially Atsumu) which lead them to try and practice more tricks together

everyday in elementary school as soon as Atsumu was buckled in the car he wouldn’t shut up about Aran

Momma Miya and Aran’s mom are actually pretty close because of how obsessed the twins are with Aran

through out their first year in highschool Osamu was becoming uninterested in volleyball and preferred preparing dinner with momma miya, but Atsumu would drag him outside to practice sets

Atsumu is not a playboy as everyone fanons him to be

he actually sucks at talking to girls. He gets super in his head about what to say that he comes off as a jerk and feels bad for the rest of the day.

He would always try and help his classmates. He’s definitely a giver, and doesnt often get to be the receiver :(

going along with him being a giver. Thats why he cried when Kita left him food. He was extremely happy that he was thought about what it is like to be on the opposite end

After they lost nationals in their 2nd year. Atsumu became crazy about becoming stronger so much to the point he physically and mentally exhausted himself.

Because he had gotten so sick from exhaustion. he listened to him mom and took a small break from volleyball( obviously still went to practice just not 24/7)

during this break he met a girl who actually stuck around after his failed flirting attempts

and boy did he think he was in love

after a year of dating he had heard for suna and his brother that she cheated on him:(

this broke him. Since she was his first love, and he had given her so much. She was his first kiss, first date, and he lost his virginity to her. For the beginning of this third year he completely lost the light in his eyes.

During this time his nightmares resurfaced this time more realistic, and he caught himself doing the same thing he had done as a kid.

yes, yes He would never admit it but at 17- almost 18 years old- Miya Atsumu and begged his parents at 2 in the morning if he could sleep in between them.

Atsumu gets embarrassed everytime he thinks of it

luckily by nationals he was able to get over her (for the most part) and get ready for university

Surprising, Atsumu was all about grades at uni. He worked his ass off both at school and in the gym.

He had a few girls swoon over him but he wasn’t going to date and of them in fear they would break his heart

Also i see many people fanon that he’s a fuckboy and has a ton of sex but let me make this clear. Atsumu isnt exactly demisexual but he definitely wouldnt want to fuck someone he isn’t in love with or at least sees a future with

thats why i believe he very inexperienced when it comes to sex..so no he didn’t screw around at uni

now back to before uni when Osamu told Atsumu he wasn’t going to continue with volleyball he was really upset but in reality he was heartbroken again (please give him a break)

He yelled and screamed at Osamu and for the first time momma miya had to separate them when they weren’t even physically fighting

He slept on the couch for 3 nights because he refused to sleep in the same bedroom as Osamu.

On the 4th night Atsumu finally knocked on the door and talked out all his feelings with Osamu. And he cried. He cried a lot. Osamu knew better then to make fun of him. Because of this they two made a pack with one another that they would never fight like that again.

anyway enough of him getting hurt. Atsumu’s life turned around after he got recruited for MSBY

He walked into Miya Onigiri ready to tell Osamu the exciting news when he over heard you talking behind the counter to his brother (*wink wink* you see where i’m going with this) “I’m sorry but your brother is honestly-just i-i cant even put it into words. He’s so talented” And yep he tripped into the building.

luckily he did not fall but he managed to create a very dramatic scene.

Embarrassed to say the least he was getting ready to start heading to Osamu again when your Apron got stuck on a table and you tripped right into him spilling about $20 worth of onigiri.

he caught you…in a very odd way (cuz this is realistic) but he caught you

In short you guys started to get very close all because of that very embarrassing meet-cute, and a scolding from Osamu about how you should be more careful.

Finally at 24 Atsumu wasn’t only just a giver but he equally got to be a receiver from you. He wasn’t quite ready for a relationship just yet(and you knew that) but his heart was finally opening up

also on a more random note- one time him and Omi got blackout drunk and bought a bunny. Omi claims it never happened, but the cute, tiny, white bunny in the MSBY dorms says otherwise

　　『　gender neutral human reader + g1 decepticons 』

　　— 003

　　-> injury warning ,, cuss warning ,,

　　—third chapter !! :D we get to meet some more characters other than hook ,, and scavenger ! small off and on with different pov ,, mainly usage of you and they for the reader !

　　— tag list :: empty …

　＜　one , two , four , five ＞

as of now, according to what 'megatron' — the one with a bucket for a head and a desperate need for anger management class — you were now the decepticons hostage. hostage for what, you had no clue. after all, you only know that some dickhead named buzzsaw had broke your ankle before dragging your phat ass to the base. honestly, this vacation was going worse than your daily dose of having to deal with fuckwits at work.

a sigh fell from your lips, rolling your eyes during hook's explanation of what would be happening from now on. you didnt really pay attention, not interested in hearing the stuff he had to say. "now i would leave you in my company, yet i am busy and not to mention the equipment i have can easily crush your squishy body," the medic said, holding his chin as he talked.

by now, you we're getting tired of hearing them call you squishy. like, how dare they assume?? you could be one of those reptilian people in disguise for all they know! you grumbled, eyes narrowing at the constructicon who was busy rambling to even notice your angry glare. either that or he didnt give a fuck.

"of course, breakdown would be a good choice but knowing of his paranoia he'd just ditch you on the side of the road, and megatron wouldnt like that." hook released a sigh of his own. he shook his helm before going to think. who would be responsible enough to look after you? he was busy with pairing bots, breakdown was a bit too wimpy to be left in charge of you, and he was sure motormaster would stomp on you the moment he decided he didnt like you. starscream and his trinemates were a no go, maybe thundercracker would be good, but hook sure as hell didnt trust skywarp or starscream with you.

after all, you were a human, extremely fragile and in this case, extremely important to megatron's plans. he could just drop you with scavenger, but he didnt feel like having to deal with his whines of being left in charge of a squishy being. for all he knows, he could lose you and freak out about it.

          as hook kept pondering to himself, another bot had came strolling in the medbay. a dark navy, almost prussian blue bot with a red visor had gave a small nod of acknowledgment towards you, before setting down an injured bot. this one was smaller than the others, almost like a baby in a way. he was dark grey, almost black with red tints. he also had a red visor, and a pout on his face with his arms crossed.

          hook watched as soundwave had entered the room, with frenzy in his arms. he started to prepare the things needed to heal the minicon, and also prepare himself for what he would hear frenzy say. after all, the minicon talked a lot of shit.

          as hook was busying himself with things, frenzy took the moment to scan the human in front of him. he'd heard of them from buzzsaw, that dickhead of a bird who couldve easily taken the spot of being the sin of pride. especially when he was successful in his missions, primus that bird didnt know when to be quiet. "yo, fleshy," he called out to you. eyes flickered over to the smaller bot, confusion flashing in them. "yeah?"

          "whats yer name?" he questioned, eyeing up their form. he'd seen people in magazines wear the things they had on. he also knew that many fleshies didnt show that much of their skin, as it was called. "why?" their head tilted to the side, a sign of even more confusion. frenzy grumbled, making a 'tch' before replying, "because i wanna know!"

          soundwave watched the two interact, ready to prevent frenzy from harming megatron's new hostage. after all, he knew of megatron's plan to use the fleshy, as they were connected with the government and could be used as a powerful ally.

"its (y/n)," you finally gave in, quirking their eyebrows. "yours? or are you too pussy to share?" you snickered. "what?!" frenzy growled, anger boiling inside him. "i aint no pussy, fleshy! i'm frenzy!" he sneered at the chuckling human. "oh?" they eyed him, before breaking into a smile. "nice to meet you, frenzy." they held their hand towards him. the minicon growled before swatting their hand away, "whatever," he mumbled.

          soundwave gave a small pat to frenzy's helm, calming the angry minicon before turning his gaze to (y/n). "designation : soundwave," he said, watching as they turned their own attention to him. "hello to you as well, soundwave." they replied.

          hook returned with the equipment he needed, asking frenzy a series of different questions before patching the minicon up. soundwave and hook started to talk to one another, frenzy shuffling over to the sitting human.

          "so, uh, fleshy," he looked down at them, crossing his arms. "how long ya gonna be here? at the base, yknow?" (y/n) sniggered to themself, "not a clue. why, gonna miss me if i leave?" they wiggled their eyebrows at him. frenzy snarled, “no way!” he was quick to deny them, before looking around. “but, i do get bored of being around the other minicons.” he shook his head.

“besides, ya look pretty bored and lonely, itd be a shame if all ya did nothing but sit there the whole time.” he started to think to himself, before snapping his fingers. “ey! what if ya came with me and soundwave!” he broke out into a grin, before it dropped into a pout. “of course, not because i like ya! only so ya don’t have to look pathetically bored there.” you shrugged your shoulders, feeding into the minicon’s wants. after all, he was quite right. sitting on the table was pretty boring, and hook wasnt as entertaining as frenzy.

“i’ll go ask soundwave, ya wait here.” he pointed his digit to the table, before running off to pester the other two bots in the room. you shook your head and chuckled to yourself, wondering what it would be like hanging out with frenzy. it couldnt be that bad, right?

after hearing frenzy ask if they could take the human, soundwave was quick to nod, as he was curious to know more about the human more than he already did from basic information. and to make sure they wouldnt plot anything against megatron, of course. thanking hook for his treatment, soundwave grabbed (y/n), being careful of their injury. he was gentle, holding them with care.

“operation : human adoption,” soundwave said, before leaving with both his minicon and his new human.

[casualavocados]

okay at first i was like, why is ayan threatening to tell people akk's the one bringing the curse back when he already said he wouldnt. ayan also claimed he didnt believe akk anymore about not stealing the notebook bc of what he’s "now" seen akk do - but he’s known akk was behind things since the beginning. and actually the only motive i can come up with is that he was worried about what akk would do if he was left alone that night, because akk kept trying to get away from him, and not letting ayan help him. so ayan threatened to tell people that akk was bringing the curse back if he didnt stop.

and i realized that... something huge about ayan's past is that he witnessed his uncle’s suicide. and IF im interpreting this episode correctly, you have to consider that aspect of trauma alongside the way he acts towards akk, & the reactions he gets from akk.

akk pushes ayan away when ayan says he needs to think of himself first. akk leans into ayan’s hug at first but then pushes him away again and tries to leave. so ayan follows and does what he’s done in the past. he threatens. he gets a rise out of akk, a confrontation akk can't back out of rather than an attempt to escape. and maybe ayan only does that because he’s scared. maybe he’s scared of leaving akk alone, not knowing what akk will do - whether it be continue the curse or something worse. he needs to make sure akk will stop.

so throughout the rest of the episode, as ayan drags akk back to the school to search for his notebook, it’s possible that what he’s really doing is just keeping akk busy. and it works because they settle back into the same teasing/exasperated relationship they had before. it smooths things between them. but the balance doesn’t truly tip into where it needs to be until ayan has his nightmare, and akk hurries to comfort him. after their conversation on the beach, things couldn't go back to the way they were before, but couldnt move forward either. akk isn’t the only one who needed to show weakness in this ep, ayan needed to as well. especially since while they were searching for the notebook he avoided akk’s question abt why it was important again. they both needed to lean on each other this ep. they both need to learn to trust each other. so i can’t wait to see what comes next, and how ayan eventually opens up about the truth of his relationship with dika and what happened to him.

[fuck-customers]

Can customers PLEASE stop pointing out my name? Context, i'm trans and I've gotten my name legally changed but I'm still on a waiting list for hormones and I cant find my chest because it's so god damn hot where I live and my shift is too long, it wouldnt be safe to wear for that amount of time. Anyway I have at least three people point out the masculine name on my nametag, which is like unmistakably a guy name (as is intended to be) with varying degrees of politeness. Sometimes a nicer old man will go, "huh! [Name]? Never met a woman named that before, I like it." And I know he means well but I'm just seething. And then other times someone goes, "odd. I dont think of [Name] as a women's name." Yes, because it isnt. But I dont say that, because I live in the bible belt and I'm not trying to start shit. But today, a lady actually made a face at me and said "I'm so sorry your parents named you that. If I were you, I'd change it."

Ma'am, I already did. This is what I chose.

I'm not even upset when customers call me ma'am- I'm feminine looking, we're in the south. I GET OVER IT. My coworkers are mostly chill about my pronouns but they mess up sometimes too- They correct themselves, I'm feminine looking, I GET OVER IT. But people really dont need to bring the name business up, like you can keep your thoughts about my name to yourself. It's the only Avenue through which I'm truly myself right now, it just hurts when people drag it.

For a bit of positivity- I did have a girl about a month and a half ago who say the nametag and the Dyed Hair and put two and two together and said "can I call you sir?" And I said yes, and she said "cool, have a nice day sir." That's like the only time that happened on my shift, but it was still really cool.

a review of new tales from the borderlands

so, new tales from the borderlands was ... something! i was really excited going into it, and i can say it was moderately enjoyable. it was not worth $40-50 at all, esp. with the preorder which included three skins in all grey!! woohoo!! that was super cool!!!

anyway,

style

in comparison to the original tales from the borderlands, the game shines in some aspects. the mocapping is wonderfully done. a lot of people are saying its awkward and weird, and at some times, it definitely can be. its not an entirely perfect system but it shows a good amount of emotion. with the funding of telltale’s tftbl, it was clear where they were lacking. odd cuts, janky animations, etc.

gameplay

the gameplay of new tales is definitely more polished. there were a few things that were odd and not well done and some segments were definitely dragged out a lot more than they shouldve been. i wish there were more interactable events in the world b/c i did enjoy exploring. vaultlanders was a unique addition, though overall felt very lacking and didnt make sense in terms of the storyline. it couldve done without it, and im 99% sure this was only added for replay value (collectables?)

they brought in some other new things i didnt necessarily enjoy. the entire system that was created for rating the group dynamic also did not care in terms of the game. i had about two scenarios where it did.

i didnt even know what was changing my group dynamic or how characters felt about one another. i didnt even know if they were on good terms by the ending of the game -- it wasnt made clear by gameplay. my only indication were a few popups stating “fran doesnt respect octavio” (yeah, i wouldnt either) and it was annoying. lou13 has an entire point in the beginning of the game stating teamwork would make the process easier to survive, and yet this didnt reflect one in the entire game. not where i saw, at least.

charm

holy. fuck. they bombed hard with the music choices. one of the BIG big aspects of tales, what made it shine, was the introduction and intros. they were well done, crisp, perfectly timed. its difficult for me to pick a favourite intro from any episode of tales because theyre all so well done -- from a stylish crash onto pandora to “busy earning” by jungle, to the somber crash onto pandora to “retrograde” by james blake. it was clear every song in tales was carefully chosen and the intros were framed around them.

whereas in new tales, its... weird. the introductions to the episodes are odd, weirdly timed and dont expand upon much. it felt like they were trying too hard to mimic the bonding the tales team went through -- but that was natural in comparison to this. even then, there wasnt a single introduction i enjoyed. episode 5′s introduction was the best out of the bunch but even then, the music choice was odd and it felt like there was nothing happening. it wasnt worth watching. whereas in tales, it would hook you and keep you there the entire time.

the name cards are also very oddly timed. a lot of them dont appear when theyre supposed to. typically in borderlands, we get a line or two before a character’s name is revealed. i found multiple times, either name cards did not appear for characters that would be reoccurring, or would just be flat out poorly timed. it didnt feel like borderlands, which is known for the flash of the cards and the catchy one-liners to accompany them.

writing

so... its definitely an improvement from borderlands 3. some would disagree and say its a difficult storyline to follow, which, i understand

i think episodes 2-3 were quite literally worthless and provided nothing. i dont think i even remember what happened in those episodes. the ones that really captured me, were the last two. its where the spirit of the game (quite literally) came out to reveal itself. i didnt expect myself to get emotional but episode four did make me cry, and then immediately sober up in confusion when it jumped to a retro 90s fighting style game with fran.

some of the jokes dont hit quite right and a lot of episode four is... odd. between the std’s joke, the spiderant, so on... it felt unnecessary. the running gag of lou13 “data sharing” (aka having sex) was uncomfortable to watch.

and there were a lot of inconsistencies with the writing, as is usual with the borderlands universe, but:

- anu creates a device to replicate siren technology, which is disregarded after episode 1 and never brought back up again

- octavio’s idiocy goes beyond being an idiot and quite literally just having no brain for the sake of “humour”, which just comes off as frustrating

- characters just stand out in open hallways and get shot and die. its seen as emotional and heartbreaking in game, and incredibly stupid as the player of said game. why the hell did stapleface die from a gunshot to the shoulder? why couldnt anu heal her? who knows, there is absolutely no explanation for it

- when the characters are going on a gameshow and stopped by a bouncer, he says “all contestants are accounted for” and then when you get into the area, there is literally. a single person. and its not a sake of others going before said person -- they literally begin the gameshow, starting with that person, a moment later.

- rhys calls anu to ask her help to stop tediore from opening the vault, and then, never follows up. literally. he is not seen from again for like five chapters or something ridiculous and when he does return, its for a completely separate reason and its never brought up again.

- the writers seemed to have either never played the original tales, or did not care enough to stay true to rhys’ character in general. he’s power-hungry, an asshole, and the type of superior he wouldve hated. the writers chose to ignore every single line of rhys discussing how atlas could be different from the other corporations and went with “actually, theyre ALL bad” which like, yeah, i get it. capitalism, boo. but when it doesnt match up with the characters behaviour its... very irritating.

while there was definitely some of sassy rhys in there ("you’ll be hearing from me, specifically my tears” is one of my personal favourites), it didnt make up for the rest of how they butchered his character. also, i see them hinting at sasha’s return and i DO NOT like it. stay away from her.

they also decided to make athena the ceo of hyperion-- how or why that happened, i have no idea, and frankly at this point i dont want to find out.

characters

the cast is... certainly a cast. but delete lou13.

i really liked anu and i resonated with her. although a little irritating at times, i could appreciate her as a character. it was a real breath of fresh air in comparison to the other borderlands characters we typically receive. octavio was... octavio. i did enjoy fran, but the consistent horniess was overdone after about the second episode.

a lot of the side characters that were introduced just, dont get brought back in. youre introduced to a big group of characters in the first episode by octavio, and then you barely see any of them for the rest of the game. (justice for diamond danielle) its a waste and once again, one of the biggest complaints i have about borderlands games is wasted potential. from bl3′s clay, to athena (who actually makes a reappearance, after the audience reminded the writers she existed), katagawa jr, aurelia, rose, gladstone, and so on...

now we have an additional cast of characters we’re most likely never going to see again, who were introduced as important to one of our protagonists and then never expanded upon. (the fact we saw a literal talking gun more than any of his closest friends was weird)

anyway, going back to my first point, im sorry but i hated lou13. his entire existence was unnecessary. a robot filled with existential dread, oh boy, i wonder where we’ve seen that one before! this isnt familiar and not well done at all.

where loaderbot in the original tales shines, lou13 fails in every. single. category. from personality, to likability, to personal sacrifices for our protagonists... its all lackluster, disappointing, and i could not care less about this character.

anyway, we’re never going to see about 99% of those introduction characters again and while its annoying, im fine with it if it means more room for other, already established characters who deserve some more time in the spotlight.

going back-- we finally saw katagawa senior! they copied katagawa jr’s model entirely, and put a beard on him. fantastic, great work everyone. take a day off, you guys deserve it. mustve been really difficult to come up with that one, especially considering the art we see for him in the next episode is literally not the same man.

overall

if you go into this expecting tales from the borderlands, you’ll be disappointed.

if you go into this expecting good writing, you’ll be disappointed.

if you go into this expecting a few laughs, you might get some! it depends on your humour! i thought badass superfan was hilarious and there were a few bits i genuinely enjoyed. a lot of the humour was enjoyable to me, but after all, this is all matter of opinion. if youre not a fan of reoccurring jokes or bits that drag on for a little bit too long, planned awkward laughter, tension, etc. this might not be your style of humour.

if you go into this wanting good characters to grow attachments to... play tales from the borderlands.

5/10 just want troy baker back plz ty.

word count; 2k

a/n; where did kyquu go? :( i hope they at least see this.. i didnt finish childes part but i wanted to push this out as soon as possible. :(

kaeya

to put it simply, your relationship with kaeya was... tiring.

you had been close to kaeya and his younger brother for years, them being your closest and most trusted friends throughout part of your childhood and teenage years. but that all came to a halt when the former admitted to being a spy from khaenri'ah.

in no way or form did he expect for you two to forgive him— but actually seeing your broken and betrayed faces hurt him more than he thought it would, and the image still haunts him to this day.

you had separated yourself from the two brothers. although diluc didn’t do anything wrong, you didn’t want to pick between them ( even though you really should’ve ). that decision was too hard for you to make.

for years, you stayed out of touch with kaeya as he continued to climb the ranks within the knights of favonius, and you followed, much to your dismay. you worked hard to become a knight, and you weren’t going to quit just because of some bad blood between you and your superior. ( props to you for maturity )

he wanted nothing more than to reconnect with you, and maybe even diluc— but that was wishful thinking. diluc ragnvindr was a stubborn, hardheaded man, and getting past that exterior would be no simple feat.

so, he opted for ( not so ) subtly courting you— giving you the occasional wave whenever he saw you walking through mondstadt, offering to help you train ( although you declined every time ), and other small things. you question why he chose to do this now of all times, after half a decade of not speaking to each other.

you weren’t sure how to feel, but it made you agitated. not seething with rage, but it did annoy you to see his lazy grin whenever he walked into the angels share and saw you sitting in the corner of the room. it annoyed you whenever he did that stupid two finger salute before walking off, and archons, did it annoy you when he patted your shoulder after sparring as if you were the best of buds.

then why did your thoughts never stray from him?

that question, you couldn’t answer.

and so, you resorted to treating him like he didn’t exist. it was rude, but you couldn’t really think of anything else. avoiding him like the plague was the one thing you were good at.

as if things couldn’t get any worse, one of your worst nightmares came to fruition.

“jean, please. why can’t i do this mission with you? why... him?” you were basically at the acting grand masters feet, head in your hands and pleading up at the woman. she felt bad, but there was nothing she could do.

“i’m really sorry y/n. but i’m too busy with other things, and kaeya happens to be available. you know an ordinary knight wouldnt be able to take this mission,” her guilt worsened when you looked up at her with ( fake ) tears in your eyes. she kneeled to your height.

“i don’t know of your history with kaeya, but please, just put it aside for this one mission. it shouldn’t take you very long.”

jean helped you stand to your feet, the frown etched into her face growing deeper when she saw your shoulders slump. “alright, fine..i’ll try-”

“jean! have you seen y/n— ah, there they are,” kaeya waltzed in without so much as a knocking, making you jump in surprise and shoot a glare at him. he flashed you a lazy grin.

“speak of the devil..” you muttered.

“are you ready to go? we don’t have much time.” the mission you were assigned was to gain intel on what the fatui were planning. to get said intel, you had to sneak into a gathering held by the fatui. the dresscode was rather expensive— more expensive than anything you owned— so to help you out, kaeya took the liberty of purchasing an outfit for you.

kaeya dropped it into your arms. “change into this. don’t want to show up to a party wearing uniform, do you?”

“thanks...” your face felt warm from embarrassment, but you did have to admit, that was considerate of him.

he laughed and waved his hand, shaking his head. “let’s get going, yeah?”

—

you finished getting ready with the help of jean. she sent you one last apologetic gaze before walking you out the door, waving at you both.

kaeya didnt even hide the fact that he was checking you out. his eyes raked over your attire, before sticking his arm out for you to hold. “my, my, you look quite impressive, y/n. is everything suited to your tastes?”

you huffed and walked past him. “the corset is too tight, and the shoes are too small.” you were only half lying— the corset was a bit uncomfortable to move in, but he got your shoe size down to a T. how? you didn’t really want to know.

“if that’s the case, i can loosen it for you-”

“no.”

kaeya laughed it off, and you only grew more irritated. “come now, y/n. don’t be so stiff.”

“i am perfectly content with being stiff, thank you. now hurry up, i want to get this over with,” you muttered the last part.

you didn’t want to admit that you were struggling to take your eyes off of his attire. he was clad in a white suit with blue complimentary colors to match your own outfit.

you rolled your eyes. ‘of course he’d get us matching outfits.’

but, you didnt find yourself minding all too much.

—

the party looked like any other party— fatui agents littered all over the residence, along with guests in fancy clothing.

you tugged on your sleeve, feeling uncomfortable and out of place. but on the outside, yourself and kaeya blended in pretty well.

because kaeya was such a well known figure, he had to change up his looks a bit. no eyepatch, ( i know, so uncharacteristic ) and he used contacts to change his eye color to a darker shade.

he also put that disgusting rat tail away.

so he didn’t look completely different, but he looked different enough.

...the change was nice.

you couldnt help but feel watched though. but that was to be expected. even though you felt somewhat secure in this situation, anxiety rests for no one. it rested in the pit of your stomach dormantly, waiting for a moment to bloom.

looking around the ballroom, kaeya found people dancing in the middle. deciding that it was better to at least enjoy the party before leaving, he stood in front of you and held his hand out, bowing.

“may i have this dance?”

“who do you think i am-”

kaeya flashed you a cautious glance, head nodding towards a fatui agent who was keeping their eye on the two of you. holding back a sigh, you placed your hand in his. he grinned.

“thank you,” he said. you grunted quietly and held back a roll of your eyes as he dragged you to the middle of the dance floor.

“attention whore,” you muttered, feeling warmer as he placed his hand on your lower back and pulled you in closer.

“you wound me, y/n.”

“you deserve it. i wish i could slap you.”

he stayed quiet. maybe too far?

you shook your head. no. there was no way you we’re going to let yourself feel sorry for him when he was literally a spy.

but he feels honest enough.

sure, his intentions at first were.. questionable. but he’s changed for the better. kaeya has been in mondstadt for years now, and khaenri'ah fell ages ago. his love for mond shouldn’t be doubted for a second, even if he hides it quite well.

before you could look up and make sure your words didn’t hurt him too badly, he leaned down near your ear.

“we have to go.”

“what-”

“i’ll explain later, but we have to go,” he grabbed your hand and pulled you through the crowd.

you didn’t notice, but several of the fatui agents were watching you. you didnt change your looks as much as he did, opting to use simple touch-ups to make yourself more presentable. but it wasn’t enough.

“hey!” one of that agents shouted, and kaeya turned his head back to see how close they were. like he suspected, they were following gou. they pushed through the people, even going as far as knocking one man over, just to catch up.

you hurried your steps along with kaeya, almost sprinting to keep up with him. his grip on your hand was firm though. you two dashed up the stairs onto the third floor of the residence, where the bedrooms were. offices, libraries, bedrooms— they were all there. kaeya picked a random one and shoved you both inside.

it was a red themed bedroom, the lights dim with papers scattered along the desk on the other side of the room. “it seems we’ve gotten lucky,” kaeya joked, skimming over the papers. they were letters, between the fatui and some unknown source. kaeya stashed them in his jacket.

you didn’t understand how he could joke at a time like this. you still arent in the clear and you could hear rapid footsteps coming upstairs. “kaeya—!”

“you know how you said you wanted to slap me?” he said while tucking the last bit of papers into his suit. he didnt even give you a chance to answer. “you can, after this.”

you were confused, but when he backed you up against the wall and pressed his lips to yours, that confusion turned into anger, then more confusion, then understanding.

sighing when you finally caught on, he pulled your body closer to his and you wrapped your arms sround his shoulders. he tugged and nipped on your bottom lip, and if you didnt know any better your knees would be knocking. he was almost too good at this.

suddenly, an agent— a female one, this time— barged in. “have you— hey! take that shit elsewhere, lovebirds!”

kaeya hid your face in his chest, grinning lazily at the woman. his lips were swollen and his eyes were lidded. the woman blushed.

clearing her thoat, she held up a picture of you. well, moreso the back of your head. “have you seen this individual?”

he stared at the woman, then glaced down at you. “..sorry. i’ve been busy, i haven’t seen anyone of the sort. wish i could help,” he shrugged, and the ladies blush worsened. “o-of course..” she muttered, before closing the door and locking it.

kaeya snorted at the irony. he looked back at you, who was still touching your lips with your fingers.

“was i that good?” he chuckled, and caught your hand when you moved to slap him. his laughter died down and he looks oddly serious.

“y/n, we need to talk..”

“...no we dont,” you turned your back to him. he put his hand on your shoulder.

“yes,” he sighed. “we do. i know you didnt want to do this with me-”

“kaeya..”

“-and really, i understand. but i’ve changed, and i know you’ve noticed. i dont want you to hate me forever-”

“kaeya-”

“and you can’t-”

“kaeya!” you nearly yelled. he finally stopped talking over you. “i don’t want to talk about this right now. can you just drop it?”

“then when?” he narrowed his eyes. he laughed humorlessly when there was no reply.

kaeya’s eyes softened the longer you stayed silent. he gently grabbed your wrist and pulled you in for a hug. “...sorry.”

“could you please shut up,” you mumbled into his chest. he laughed softly.

“i know you’re wary right now. but all i ask for is a second chance,” he pulled away and hend your hands together in his. “...please.”

it was an odd sight, seeing him this vulnerable. then again, there was a good chance he was faking it to get on your good side but.. for some reason you found it hard to believe that. he looked truly sincere.

you groaned.

“you better not make me regret this.”
