SPOILERS FOR TALES OF THE TMNT EPISODE 6!!!!!!!

i havent seen anyone mention it yet but there looks like a lot of references to past turtle media in the costumes in ep 6 of tales of the tmnt.

the turtles armor looks like the armor they wore in 93's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 movie.

The Mechazoid with the cat beanie looks like ice cream kitty from 2012 tmnt.

The Mechazoid with the cape and hat looks like it could be referencing Usagi or Peepaw from the Rise movie. the hat throws me off but the reason i think it had a connection to rise!leo is because of the coils rapped around its arm. that could be referencing future leos prosthetic.

i cant figure out the shark looking one

some of these might be a stretch but this is just what i thought i saw lmao

Vinsmoke Sanji x male reader

Wano Sanji>> 😍🧑‍🍳💋

I won’t tolerate any hate for me writing Sanji x a male reader if you don’t like it block me :)

Sanji loving a male has two possibilities of how it happened: A) an au where he’s bi or smth or B) he loved women until you. Now he respects women and loves you!

let’s go with B for the sake of making you feel as special as you are 😉👌

honestly from here you can basically just read any Sanji headcanons and know what your relationship is like so I’m not gonna repeat the traditional sanji things 😅 but from now on male reader will be heavily implied/mentioned :3 💗

Sanji as a boyfriend is a great punching bag if you have anger issues and sparring partner! 😁 if your a hot headed person he’ll let you punch him as many times as you want til you get all your emotions out. He knows what it’s like to bottle it up and he’s rather have you take it out on him then implode it on yourself. Now, others he doesn’t care about unless they’re a woman. Will still side with you tho

”hey watch where your going!”

- you

”excuse me??”

- random woman

”please excuse us, my lady, my lovely boyfriend~ (😍) is trying to get through”

- Simpji

Sanji is really strong so as a sparring partner he’s great! You can tell him to stop holding back as much as you want but you can’t rely on him for that. 😊 He would rather just be used as a punching bag honestly, he doesn’t wanna hurt you!! 😓 Will be 00.1% less lenient if your strong like the monster trio buuuut not a big difference. He’s not underestimating you at all! You can tell by his constant praises on how strong you are- but he just doesn’t wanna hurt his DAAAARLING FUTURE HUSBAND~ (😍)

if your weaker, he insists you won’t have to train much because he’ll always protect you. Just like he has the instincts to detect a woman’s tears, he now has the ability to tell if you need help! His heart will clench and his stomach will twist before he darts off to find you without a word (despite worrying your crew-)

Will spar with you if your really serious about getting stronger to help protect you and your crewmates. But he might suggest you get a weapon built by Usopp (or Franky) first.

”MY LOVELY BOYFRIEND IS SO KIND~ HE WANTS TO GET STRONGER TO PROTECT EVERYONE!~~ The rest of you jerks better be grateful!! 😤 -not you! Nami-San! Robin-Chwan!”

No matter your body type Sanji will dote on you! 😘 ABS⁉️ AN ALL OUT NOSE BLEED!! YOUR SO HANDSOME HE JUST MIGHT PASS OU- 😴 A dad bod?? 😍😍 AWOOGA~ Sounds sensual and sultry to him 💋💋 On the chubbier side? STILL HOT!! Mwah! Come over here sugar lips 😜

- his words not mine 😚

his dates can vary from really romantic to more casual, depends on what type of guy you are. If your in tune with your emotions like him you guys’ll probably seem a lot more cheesy- IN A GOOD WAY‼️💗 Otherwise, if distant or just put up a front, etc then he’ll tone it down. His side of the party will still be uh, not necessarily dramatic but dramatic, on the other hand. What I mean by that is he’s still a simp but your dates won’t be so cliche, at the least. More so activities like festivals, carnivals, roller skating, all that good stuff!

of course he can always arrange a time on the merry/sunny for a food date where he cooks all your favs!…one prob tho..Luffy. 🤦‍♀️ Actually, a good time to get away with a dinner date is when Luffy’s not around! And by that I’m talking when he’s on an island exploring and Sanji tells the others to go on ahead, leaving you two alone on the ship! 😁👍

Sanji thinks your so cool when you fight tbh. It doesn’t matter how strong or weak you are, you’ll always look tough while fighting 💪 If your weak he’s got your back!! Of course, likewise if your strong, but he worries 0.1% less if you are. He will forever be concerned about his boyfriend’s well being 🤷‍♀️ At the very least he knows you could handle yourself on your own if there’s a 0% chance that he can’t come to your aid. (He will always show up for you 🙏)

The op men seem to be more annoyed with Sanji’s simp behavior so if that’s you….it still won’t change anything…feel free to kick him tho! He’ll let you 😘 He has a nose bleed after too (not only cuz you kicked him but bc you looked hot while doing so 😍) Yeah the grind never stops, and that’s on simping 😜👍

Will let you call him any nickname! Or insult- you could practically hate him and he’d still be your loyal lap dog 🐩 Bro is down on his knees down bad 😭🙏 ‘Even when he calls me crude cook~ HE’S STILL THE MOST GLORIOUS MAN IN THE WORLD!~ 😻” If your pet/nicknames are more romantic or loving it’ll give him an even worse nose bleed for sure. He gets butterflies either way- of course. 😂

If you were to ever get hurt he’s going to quite literally hurl his boot at their face, and I’m not implying he takes his shoe off. Naturally, this outcome only happens with a man. If a woman is beating you he will prioritize your safety and run away with you. Or distract her so you can get Nami or Robin.

⚠️Skip if you haven’t watched Whole Cake arc⚠️

(Now, for a head’s up idk how Sanji’s fam works bc I’m not on whole cake yet-) Sanji’s family will likely diss him even further for being a man who likes other men. Reiju might support him- but his father will be utterly disappointed! ‘Now he can’t even marry a women to strengthen they’re bloodline!’ (Sanji’s dad<< 🙄) But don’t worry ik for a fact his super awesome boyfriend came through to save the day 🦸

(Back to regual hcs, mini Whole Cake spoiler over 👍)

This hc right here kinda gn but he will give you the biggest, happiest, silliest smile ever if you compliment his eyebrows. Or at least say they don’t look silly/you like them. IK he’s not necessarily insecure of the look overall but bc his doesn’t look like his family’s eyebrows, but it still makes him feel better about it ❤️‍🩹

so yeah please do compliment him on it 💗

I don’t really like to talk about who’s the “dom” in the relationship but I’m gonna mention it just this once and hear me out‼️

He’d be so flustered if you were!! Like?? Your taking care of him?? Being protective over him?? 😻🙏 AWOOGA- 💥 (he passed out) You could practically demand anything from him anyway but imagine him having a nose bleed all down his face as he stutters out a “yes sir” and immediately gets on the job 🙌 Bonus points if you have a deep voice 🤷‍♀️ (Not even in a suggestive way, btw, just genuinely having rizz 🤪🙏)

Or maybe he’s the “dom” He’d be so happy to take care and protect you, as he always is. But this time he cranks up his flirting game x200. Like he’s actually trying and not just using simp, servant, slave rizz (LOL- 😂)

Think about him leaning in real close to your ear, lowering his voice, before saying “I’ve cooked you a meal 😏” (or smth I ain’t the rizz master-)

You get my point! Case closed ok? Point is he’d be a lot more smooth than a simp. Ya got me? Good.

Edit: I added more! ψ(｀∇´)ψ

Reqs officially back open!! Now I’m just gonna freelance and write from my list

[rocknpebbles]

FAM!!! 🙇🏽‍♀️🙇🏽‍♀️ Please teach me the art of drawing usopp, IM BEGGING!! Whenever I try to draw him he looks like someone else I think it's the eyes 😭😭 LOOK!

LIKE WHO TF IS THIS 😭😭 [Ignore the seven different shades of green, pls 👉🏽👈🏽]

deadass I think this looks like usopp maybe take a step back focus on smth else and come back to it IF YOURE NEW TO DRAWING HIM DW YOU’LL GET USED TO IT 💯💯💯 what I recommend me personally is drawing him the most cartoony you can, play around with sizes and flexibility, cartoony, yknow, that’s how I managed

keep note of your favorite usopp artists and determine the route you wanna go in, cartoony, realistic, 2000s style, play around with facial expressions . draw him from memory and then do a side by side ref of your favorite image of him

i think the eyes look good but it depends what you want him to look like , might be throwing you off that usopp has small pupils, try and see how he looks like w/ that

I’m no usopp expert I literally just draw an oval, draw a panicked expression, and slap a nose on it BUUTTTTT this is just some stuff that helped me get into a rhythm/style (I would recommend Pinterest but the amount of borderline racist and whitewashed art and just weird shit in general ☹️☹️☹️☹️ STILL THERES STILL GOOD ART just that most of the good art is already from tumblr 😦)

what I think is great about usopp design is that it lets you have fun he’s a really shape-y character I can make his curls just bumps or I can make it sharp and zig saggy, idk if that make sense😭😭

HOPE THIS HELPED SOMEHOW ‼️ and if it helps yknow to not get discouraged heres some old art from a year ago when I barely got into one piece and was trying to figure out how to draw this man (and anatomy bc WTFF is THAT💀), DO NOT GIVE UP ‼️‼️💯💯💯🙏

[xanderindisguis]

just started animating after procrastinating starting it for years and im already going insane, any tips?

Four things I feel is important to note

Analyze other animations, note things you like and why, slow it down and take in the frames

Go easy on yourself, permit mistakes, make it messy, if there's something you could've done better that you realize after you made the animation then use that knowledge for the future

Take care of yourself!!! Eating, staying hydrated, getting good sleep, all that is super important outside of animating and super important when animating

And. PLAN your animations, each scenario you want, write down how you want the characters to move, I don't normally do this (DON'T FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE 🙏) but it's super helpful when I do

For the animating part itself, I'm not sure how to word it, things I found help me when animating is

- Lower FPS (I usually go with 9-11)

- Playing with duplicated frames, a common thing I do is duplicate frames to avoid redrawing them so much

- Not caring if the outline is blurry, distorted, or messy because I used the lasso tool to correct something. As long as it looks smooth, you know what you're looking at, and it gets the job done

- What I call "fade ins/outs". For example, you have two keyframes (move hand from A to B), you redraw the first one but slightly different (Hand moves like 2 pixels or smth), you redraw it again (hand moves 7 pixels), middle frame (between A and B), and do the exact same process but backwards

BUT a things I want people to know because I see it a lot and it makes me itch in a bad way

- When lip syncing, unless the anatomy of the character is different, or you have a style that fits it, THE JAW ALWAYS GOES DOWN. Your focus should be on opening it downwards

- CONSISTENCY, while your sketches may be lazy, please keep them consistent to the original frame. Don't stray TOO far from the keyframe, like something's too big, or the size keeps changing, or even in cases of lip syncing where the way it moves is different each time (Up down up down up down left up, yk??). THIS ONLY EVER WORKS if the situation calls for it!!!

((I've done tgis before witg lip syncing....))

- PLEASE. Note how to use smear frames. In small movements, it's not necessary, someone raising their arm doesn't need a giant smear to do. Use them when there's exaggerated, quick motions, and make sure there's still form to it so it's not just a blob

(Completely off topic, but there was a trend on tiktok with a filter where they'd make a hand shift into another thing like 🤚 to ✌️, and it bothered me so much because EVRRYYY time there was a smear frame BUT IT WASN'T NECESSARY and sometimes even ruined it)

- Don't be afraid to skip middle frames, like when someone's shaking an item in their hand, as long as the two keyframes are there and a few extra frames after the action, it should be alright, or when someone's laughing

I think that's about all I can say

This is my rpf norman request.

This would take place before TWD, back when our man was making B-movies of questionable quality. Reader (plus size please? 🙏) plays his bff in the movie. Norman's character has a love interest played by a typical bombshell actress. However, when the director notices that Reader and Norman have earth-shattering chemistry, the director decides to rewrite the script. Instead of the bombshell actress the hired for the role, Reader will be Norman's love interest. This saves the production money since they can fire that actress (poor thing).

Some possible plot points (optional)

both the reader and norman are struggling actors (this way norman doesn't have any "star power" over the production, nor any power over the reader)

movie involves reader's first sex scene, so she needs practice. norman is happy to oblige--he's had a lot of experience with his modeling, after all

or maybe he wants to practice (just to spend more time with her)

either way, norman is instantly ENAMORED with her.

maybe some marketing exec comes to set and complains about reader not being thin? but then the director says 'just look at them together' and reader and norman are taking a break in a corner staring at each other and/or flirting or smth? and it is just captivating to watch them connect.

love confessions, please?

smut is encouraged, but entirely optional

okay i have other more plotty ideas that i will keep to myself (unless you force them out of me) i cannot find the bravery in my heart to write rpf, so I come to you, a hero among us.

(feel free to turn this into a fic exchange, and I'll write Daryl/JohnRollins/Murphy fic for you)

Hi honey!!

Well well thanks for you request! I really loved to write it and all the details you gave me helped me so much. If you some day find the courage to write about Norman I will love to read it!

I hope you'll like it!!

Everybody enjoy!!

≈≈≈≈≈≈

You're so excited. Your smile doesn't fade as you walk briskly through the city streets. It's been about a month since you auditioned for a movie. You have always loved acting, since you were a child it has helped you stay away from the abuse of the world. You have always been a girl with a difficult body, too far away from the canons that society thought were the right ones, too much flesh on your arms, a rounded belly, strong and full legs, but on stage, you could be whoever you wanted, the world disappeared for you.

Of course as time went by you started to ignore all the comments around you, that's who you were, whether people liked it or not.

That was you.

You acted in several plays around town, small roles, perhaps always too far from the spotlight, but each new role swelled your confidence until you dared to audition for a real movie. The refusals were not long in coming 'we're looking for something else' 'you're not exactly what we need' 'you act well, but...' there was always a but in their excuses, which made you smile in a forced way and with a 'thank you' you turned around and left the room without making much noise.

But this time it was different, although they didn't seem convinced, no one used your body as an excuse, they simply told you they would call you and you waited. And there's the result. You would not be the protagonist of the story, they had already chosen an actress for that, but they had liked your performance and wanted you to have the role of the protagonist boy's friend. You had different scenes with him, from what you read in the script when they sent it to you, you had good chemistry, friends for many years, you were his confidant, his support, you were the Stiles of his Scott. You were excited about the idea, because even though you weren't the main character, you wouldn't be in the background without saying anything.

You arrive on set clutching the script in your hands, you're so nervous you feel your heart in your mouth, you've spent all this time learning your lines, you almost know them by heart, you can't wait to get to work. You jump inside your skin when you feel a tap on your shoulder. Turning around you discover a boy almost your own age smiling nervously at you.

"Hi, I'm Norman Reedus." He introduces himself by holding out his hand to you. "I play the role of Brian." So he's the lead. He's certainly handsome, with that shot blonde hair, intense blue eyes, a pretty, shy smile, stubble on his goatee and a cute mole over his lip. They've chosen well.

"Hi, nice to meet you, Norman." You shake your hand and introduce yourself. "I'll be playing the role of Mandy."

"Great, I hope I don't screw up, I'm practically new at this..." He apologizes and you laugh shaking your head.

"Don't worry, I've only ever acted in theater, so this is new to me too."

"Really? God, great." He laughs and then shakes his head, waving his hands nervously. "No, I'm not saying it's great that it's your first movie, which it is, but it's just..."

"If we both screw up, it's less humiliating." You joke and he laughs nodding his head.

"Yeah, exactly. I'm selfish, sorry."

"It's okay." You play it down and squeeze your script again between your hands. "I-if you want we can practice the dialogue when we're not recording." You offer seeing him opening his eyes wide.

"You don't mind? I don't want to take you out of your method of concentration or whatever."

"Not at all, it might be fun, so it won't be so weird doing it in front of the cameras."

Norman nods looking at you gratefully. He's clearly feeling a little lost, but you're the same way even though you're trying to hide it.

Shortly after the rest of the cast arrives between the directors, production crew, and all that, the place is filled with people, cables, cameras, it's a bit overwhelming even, but that doesn't take away your illusion. Being the first day you are all updated with everything that involves the recording, schedules that you will follow, the order to record the scenes, they give you keys and directions to a hotel that is not far from there and where you will spend the nights until they finish recording the film.

You rehearse some dialogues, prepare some scenes, but for the moment it's just to get yourselves ready. Your eyes unconsciously search for Norman who is talking to the leading actress, the two seem to get along well, she smiles broadly and Norman moves nervously around her, but he seems flirtatious, you wouldn't really know, you don't have much experience with it. You refocus on your dialogue by repeating the phrases you already know, now that you know what a partner is going to be like, new ideas of how to direct your character pop into your mind.

"Hey, wait." You hear behind your back as you start to gather your things. It's late and tomorrow you start filming in earnest, you turn around to find Norman looking at you. "Are we still on for practicing dialogue together?"

"Sure!" You're surprised by his invitation, but you can't help but smile.

"Perfect, do you want to grab a bite to eat before we head back to the hotel? My treat." He offers you and your smile grows wider.

*******

To be honest, Norman is quite easy to work with, he's a natural, all that nervousness, that stammering makes him the perfect 'weirdo guy with a lot of problems', like the main character in the movie, so adapting your performance to his is easier than you'd expect. You're not always together, but many nights are spent staying up in your hotel room preparing the upcoming scenes, eating Chinese food, sometimes just relaxing from work and watching a movie until you fall asleep.

"Have you always wanted to be an actress?" He asks you one night when you finish dinner.

"I've always loved acting." You punctuate. "It's special to me, it helps me clear my mind to escape from the outside world..." You give him a sidelong glance and he nods letting you continue. "I guess over time it became a passion, something fun, it's not like I went to acting classes or anything..." You admit blushing and Norman laughs.

"Me neither, we don't do so bad either." He jokes and you let out a chuckle.

"Actually this is the first movie I've been in, I've always been given some excuse about, well... they didn't say it outright, but I was the problem."

"What do you mean?"

"Come on, look at me..." You say with a sad smile. "I'm not exactly the prototypical girl you see in the movies."

"What a stupid thing to say." He says sincerely and surprises you. "They missed the opportunity; it's fascinating to watch you act, you love it and it shows... I really like working with you."

You open your eyes wide, but then smile sheepishly nodding your head.

"Thank you..." You whisper feeling your cheeks red, but you're not the only one, Norman is also red as a tomato.

You become friends and the rest of the production is aware of it.

******

That morning you arrive late on set. You've spent all night preparing a scene that your character does alone, a little monologue before the end of the movie, nothing transcendental, but you can't give it the focus it deserves and that frustrates you.

When you get to the set all eyes fall on you. You freeze, feeling your cheeks redden, you know you're late, but you didn't expect everyone to be waiting for you. There are looks of surprise and others of disbelief, you frown because you don't know what's going on.

"Did they really fire her for her?" you hear a whisper and your brow furrows even more.

"It sounds like it, maybe they should have fired her, no one wants to see a fat girl on screen." Another whisper and your eyes fill with tears. You want to scream out what's going on, but your voice gets stuck in your throat.

"Hey, you're here." Norman appears in your field of vision, there's a huge smile on his mouth and his eyes sparkle. "Did you fall asleep, sleeping beauty?" He jokes and you feel your cheeks redden violently. A tear escapes your eyes and his smile falters. "Hey, what's wrong, are you okay?"

"Y-yeah, I'm sorry... Did something happen?"

"Well, it's crazy, but the producers fired Amy."

"The lead actress? W-why?"

"They said they've rewritten the script, that they have another vision for the movie and they didn't need her." He shrugs and scratches the back of his neck. "You're going to be the lead now." He says excitedly and you're still in shock. "Congratulations, gorgeous." He jokes but you don't even get to laugh. But you do feel your heart pounding when Norman hugs you.

At first you think it was a lie or a very well crafted joke, but no, the producers confirm what Norman has told you, they have changed the script so he can make sense of the movie. You are nervous, you don't want to have that role if Amy has been fired, it doesn't seem fair to you.

"It doesn't seem right to me... Amy was playing a really good part." You talk to Norman reviewing the new script.

"The producers have decided, it's not your fault." He encourages you.

"I know, but still, they could have kept her in the story, I don't know."

"I heard they shot a few scenes with her to make it all make sense." He shrugs.

"Still, I like having this role, but not crushing on a partner..." You whisper.

"Yeah, you could certainly do that." You hear a chuckle behind you. You freeze and Norman frowns.

"What did you say?" he growls menacingly.

"Which is true, who's going to want to see the movie with her as the lead?" Another partner spits again and you feel tears welling up in your eyes with rage.

"Say that again if you have the balls..." He walks towards him tensing his jaw.

"Norman, let it go..."

"No, he's going to apologize..."

"I'm not going to apologize for something we all think." He faces Norman, staring the two men down. "And if you're not careful, she'll eat you too."

That's enough, no one sees it coming, Norman's fist shoots out against your partner's jaw. Norman is not a very strong man, broad-shouldered, but his arms are not exceptionally worked, but it is clear that what he lacks in muscle, he has in nerve and the impact is so violent that the other co worker swings and falls to the ground on his ass.

"Norman!" you shout between frightened and nervous.

"Apologize to her!" He grabs him by the collar of his shirt still with his fist raised. "Come on!"

"Norman, stop it!" you yell again grabbing his arm, pulling him back. "Please!"

Norman stands up letting go of his again, his knuckles hurt, but that's the least of it, he turns to look at you and his brow furrows much more as he sees the tears running down your cheeks.

"He has no right to insult you!"

"I'm fine, Norman." You insist.

"And that's why you're crying!?"

"It's not the first time!" you take a deep breath and wipe away your tears. "Let's go, please." You insist.

Norman hesitates for a moment, turns to the extras who have moved a little away from you and turns to you again, holds your hand and the two of you walk off the set to head back towards the hotel.

"Why do you let them insult you?" he asks you when you're alone.

"It's not the first, and it won't be the last, Norman...I've been hearing those comments my whole life."

"And that's why it's okay?"

"I didn't say it's okay, but..." You sigh. "It hurt as a kid, but now I've learned to ignore them, I like myself, so I don't care what they think."

"If you didn't care you wouldn't be crying..." He mumbles clenching his fists.

"Well sometimes I can't help it if it gets to me..." You shrug. Norman stops and hugs you. Your heart is pounding not knowing what that's all about.

"If they ever say anything like that to you again, let me know, I'll be happy to kick them in the balls." He tells you and you can't help but laugh.

That's when you realize that your feelings for Norman are stronger than you thought. You like him. Not only is he a good friend, who you've instantly connected with, but he's also a good man, who cares about people and is kind and caring. He's certainly figured out how to earn a place in your heart.

And that scares you.

**********

You have spent many days and nights working on the new script. You've been shooting non-stop for two months, and exhausting, but it's worth it. You're thrilled with your new plot.

Apparently they've taken the twist where Brian, Norman's character, realizes that his feelings for his best friend aren't just friendship. There are confessions and very tender moments between the two of you. However in between drama and angst, there are also moments of love and passion and like a good movie there is a sex scene involved that you don't quite feel comfortable with.

"Can't we just leave it at some kissing and fondling?" you insist, sitting next to Norman on the couch about to start the action before taking it to bed.

"People like these moments, plus it's important, it shows the love and passion between your characters." Explains the director.

"It's okay." Try to calm down Norman. "We're not going to get really naked, besides you can cover yourself with my body." He offers you with a warm smile, you are about to tell him that you doubt you can hide behind his body, but you prefer to keep quiet.

"No... I don't feel comfortable with this... I'm sorry." You lower your gaze and hear the team sigh.

"Well, we'd better call it a day. We've been stuck in here for many hours and we're all tired. We'll talk about this tomorrow."

You get up from the couch quickly, Norman tries to stop you, but you dodge his hand quickly leaving the set.

**

You get out of the shower with a long sigh, you may have rushed out a bit, but the situation was starting to get uncomfortable and you needed to get out of there, tomorrow you would apologize to them. You put on your old sleep shirt, you don't sleep in your pajamas, t-shirts always get tangled and your pants always ride up, it's uncomfortable and you get overwhelmed, so you always buy some t-shirts bigger than your usual size and you sleep much better that way.

You hear knocking at the door and turn around confused, you haven't ordered anything for dinner and you haven't agreed with Norman to see him that night either. Nervously you move around looking for some more clothes, but you stop. You're in your room, why do you have to change clothes? You snort, pulling your T-shirt to fit over your body, but first you put on a bra, it's nice to have your thighs showing, but nothing else is necessary. You hear knocking at the door again, but now it sounds more urgent.

"I'm coming!" you assure running to the door and open it. "Norman?" Maybe now you would have preferred to put on some pants.

"Hi, were you in bed already?" he gives you a regretful look, but you deny.

"No, not yet, is something wrong?" you try to hide your nakedness behind the door and he watches your movements, biting his lip.

"May I come in?"

"Y-yes, sure, come in." You open the door wider letting your partner into the room. "I'm going to change, give me a moment." You excuse yourself, but Norman holds your hand.

"No, no need, it doesn't bother me... Do you feel uncomfortable if I see you like this?"

"It's not..." You press your lips together, you're not comfortable, but it's not just because Norman sees you, suddenly all your fears that you thought were conquered are piling up in your head and you need to take a deep breath. "Never mind, what's wrong?" You decide to change the subject, you point him to the couch and the two of you sit down, squeeze your legs together and position your shirt as best you can.

"I wanted us to talk about the movie scene..."

You tense slightly averting your gaze away as you swallow hard. Norman studies your movements and places a hand on your knee. You feel your body tremble and you look back up at him.

"Hey it's me..." He tries to make you understand. "I'm not going to make fun of you..."

"I know, Norman, you're not the problem." Maybe a little bit is, maybe you don't want him to really see you and your friendship to disappear.

"So, you're worried that the movie won't be a success? No offense but with the plot it's just another one of the bunch, if we can get TV to avoid it for Saturdays at nap time it'll be a miracle." He jokes but manages to make you laugh and you shake your head.

"I liked everything except this part, I hadn't even finished reading the script...how silly." You whisper lowering your head.

"Stop it, come on." He grabs your chin and you realize you're standing very close to each other. "Where's that girl who enjoyed acting? Where's that girl who was passionate about acting? Where's my brave girl?" he encourages you, you feel his thumb caress your cheek, you want to look away again, but Norman stops you. "It's just skin and flesh, there's nothing else."

"Easy for you to say..."

"Of course it is, and for you too, isn't it? You said it didn't bother you anymore."

"Yes, but..."

"I like this." His hands rest on your semi-naked thighs and your breath hitches. "And this." He slides his hands down your skin until they rest on your wide hips. "And I swear you don't know how hard it's for me not to stare at your gorgeous tits while we perform." He confesses and far from annoying you, you laugh.

"You're an idiot..."

"Yes, that's possible, but I'm serious. There is nothing, nothing, wrong with you, nothing to be ashamed of."

"I know that..."

"Then what's wrong with that scene?" He looks at you and then clutches his shirt pulling it over his head. You open your eyes wide at the sight of his nakedness. "See? It's just skin."

It's just skin, but it's different, you can see his muscles tighten, his belly crinkles in a funny way as he sits on the couch, he wears his body marked with several tattoos, a fine thread of blond hair runs down from his belly button to get lost inside his pants. You take a deep breath in feeling your underwear dampen and squeeze your legs together, when your gazes meet, the blue of her eyes shines brightly.

"I'm not the typical actor either, do you really think I'll ever get called to do a major movie or TV show?" he shrugs. "Look at me, tattoos, I drink, I smoke, I forget my lines. I'm a dork." He bites his lip and again places his hand on your knee, squeezing lightly. "We all have our burdens, but I admire you and like the way you are." He looks at you with intensity again and you feel him move a little closer. "It's just a scene." He repeats and you feel his fingers dig under your shirt. "You don't know how much I wish I could see you..." He whispers and you jump in place as his hand slips between your thighs.

"Norman..."

His mouth catches yours, a soft, tender kiss on your lips, he doesn't want to force the situation, but at the same time he expresses perfectly what he wants. You kiss him also resting your hands on his shoulders, feeling your heart racing, he spreads your legs and stands in the middle to get closer to you, his hand rests on your neck and the kiss becomes more intense.

You feel that smoky taste when his tongue goes in your mouth and you get goose bumps. Norman may not be the prototypical Hollywood actor but he's different, mysterious, that's what gets people's attention. You sigh and a giggle escapes you as his mouth runs down your neck.

"What?" he looks up at you smiling.

"Nothing, it's just that you tickle me." You laugh reddening and he laughs with you nibbling on your neck quickly increasing the sensation making you let out a little yelp. "Norman!" you yell wanting to stop him, but when he looks at you you realize there is a mischievous glint in his eyes.

You follow his gaze discovering that his hands have inadvertently lifted your shirt up to the level of your chest, exposing before his eyes your maroon lacy panties and your round fluffy stomach that is now rising and falling with speed at the lack of air from the tickling and nervousness that is taking over you. You reflexively try to cover yourself again, but Norman stops you, holding your wrists with one hand. He says he doesn't have much muscle, but you're impressed by the strength those huge hands have.

"You're beautiful..." He says again and you feel your eyes fill with tears. "I'm not going to hurt you, okay? I don't intend to humiliate you, not to make you feel bad, if you want me to leave, I will, but if you don't stop me I'm going to take off your clothes, one by one, until I leave you naked in front of me and I'm going to engrave your body in my mind..." He confesses to you and your whole body shakes, you feel his words take effect and you stop struggling with him. "We're not kids anymore, girl." He whispers in your ear and kisses your cheek. He releases your wrists, but first he stretches your arms above your head and stares at you giving you a mute command.

Your shirt falls to the floor with a dull thud, your eyes shift nervously, looking at him, then searching for something in the room that doesn't exist, trying to keep your mind distracted with something, but then you hear him take a deep breath and you look back up at him. His pupils are completely dilated, the blue color of his irises is now dark and dangerous, that shy and playful smile, has turned into a dirty grimace and that does not promise anything good. Norman clasps one of your hands and brings it to his crotch, your fingers twitch for a second as you feel the hard bulge under his pants.

"And if you could hear what I'm thinking right now, you'd run away." He assures you and you cover your face with your hands due to embarrassment. "I want us to go to your bed, I want you to be comfortable for everything I want to do to you." Your skin crawls with goose bumps as you hear him. "Do you want to go through with this? Because once I have you to myself, I'm not going to stop." He warns you, but he's managed to disarm you a long time ago now, you shake your head and he smiles.

He gets up from the couch taking your hand and you guide him to the huge bed in the room. Norman stops you when he sees you're about to take off your bra and turns you to face him.

"I'll do it."

You nod as he wraps his hands around your body, without taking his eyes off you he unclasps your bra, his fingers slowly pull down the straps and tosses the garment to the floor. Again you want to cover up, but you have to admit that you have always been proud of your breasts, so you let Norman admire you without saying anything. Your bodies are close again, his mouth runs down your neck to your collarbone and back up to his mouth as his hands caress your hips and down to your ass, which he grasps and massages between his fingers. You gasp at the sensation and Norman pulls away from your mouth.

"You don't know how much I've been waiting for this." He tells you, giving you a little spank.

You jump, but not at all displeased, Norman kisses you again before gesturing to your bed. Slowly you lie down on the mattress, Norman follows your movements as he removes his slippers and pants, his boxers reveal how aroused his put on already and you bite your lip at the sight of him. He crawls over your body and you share another kiss, each time your mouths meet they do so with greater intensity, need, your tongues tangle in a struggle to dominate the other, you bite his lip and he growls low enjoying the sensation, your fingers run down the back of his neck, ruffling his short blond locks, but you love the feel of this one between your hands. You close your eyes as you break the kiss and Norman starts to move down your body, his mouth stops at your chest, he licks, sucks and plays with your skin and nipples, enjoying them until he gets you to arch your back and let out a small moan. Smiling against your skin moving even lower, his teeth close over your soft tummy again, tugging lightly on your skin. He looks up to see what you're still doing with your eyes closed, but you bite your lip waiting for whatever it is he has planned. He smiles once more and his fingers grasp the edges of your panties and slowly slides them down your legs, which you spread a little to help him, lift them up and when the garment slides down your ankles and they fall to the floor, Norman bites you making you moan again not expecting it.

"Spread your legs for me honey, let me see you." He asks you with his voice hoarse from excitement.

Shamefully you obey by spreading your legs a little, but he holds your knees, opening them completely, seeing you completely exposed before him, your neck, your breasts, all your skin is marked with his teeth, with little threads of saliva from his kisses, hickeys that each time take a redder and redder color. He smiles satisfied with his work.

But he's not finished.

"Look at that plump, juicy little pussy of yours..." He whispers leaning over your body, his mouth caressing your lower belly, your bald mons completely exposing your entire core and he can't wait to lose himself inside.

He settles between your legs, laying back on the mattress, feeling his cock protest at being crushed, but there will be time for that, still with your legs apart, his hands rest on your groin and his thumbs part your labia. The wet sound elicits a naughty smile from him, your skin shiny, wet, your hole pressed against nothing and Norman scratches the tip of his tongue with his teeth, feeling it eager to sneak into your tight entrance and savor your taste. He grunts like an animal and his hips rub against the sheets seeking some relief.

He swallows looking at you, seeing that you're waiting for something, you don't quite know what, but you're clutching the sheets tightly and your eyes are closed. He smiles leaning over you and licks your slit, his tongue squeezes your clit, he slides it back down, slipping the tip through your tight hole. You moan at the sensation and Norman purrs at the taste of you on his tongue.

"Fuck, you taste so good." He growls and his mouth opens wide devouring you.

You moan loudly, your back arches and you spread your legs wider feeling his tongue bury itself much deeper, eagerly sucking on your clit, your legs tremble each time his mouth fucks you, you feel his hands roam over you until he grips your tits and squeezes your nipples increasing your pleasure.

"No...Norman!" you moan tangling your fingers in his hair pulling on it.

His tongue catches all your taste as you cum in his mouth, his fingers squeeze a little harder on your nipples, his tongue fucks you again before parting kissing your thighs, your lower belly, he cradles your breasts between his hands, enjoying your whole body until your lips meet and he lays his body on top of yours.

"Are you okay?" he whispers looking down at you, stroking your cheeks with his thumbs.

"Y-yeah, it's just... I never..." You stammer feeling yourself turn red and he smiles.

"I'm glad I was your first time." He teases and moves his hips against you, rubbing against your thigh. "Do you want us to continue...?"

"Please." You nod your head. "I don't want you to stop now."

"Okay, sweetheart." He kisses you and pulls away for a moment reaching into his pants for a condom.

"Did you come prepared?" You say surprised and he looks at you with apology in his eyes.

"Actually I've been coming prepared for almost a month." A chuckle escapes him. "But I never dared...I never really thought that you...well you know."

"I what?" you look at him dubiously.

"That you'd be interested in me."

"You're kidding..." You look at him incredulously and he shakes his head.

He removes his boxers and slides the condom over his throbbing erection, your eyes roam over it, he is well endowed. He crawls back over your body and kisses you again. You wrap your legs around his waist, Norman lines up with your entrance and slowly pushes inside you. You gasp and press yourself against his cock as he pushes his way fully inside and stands there still. You stare at each other and he begins to move, picking up a faster and faster rhythm, fucking you hard, deep. You moan every time he thrusts and squeezes your g-spot making the pleasure increase, you move in turn, feeling him deeper, your nails dig into his back and he keeps thrusting hard.

"Fuck, this pussy is going to kill me." He snorts in your ear.

"Norman, I'm close..." You hug yourself tighter to his body, your pussy clenching around his cock.

"Fuck, me too."

You can't hold on any longer and let your second orgasm hit you, Norman moves faster until he finally cums too, filling the condom, he gasps and grunts, resting his forehead against your shoulder as his hips go slower and slower until he stops lying on top of you.

You embrace his body caressing his back, kissing his neck and shoulder listening to him purr. He carefully rolls off of you and throws the condom in the wastebasket before coming back to you and cuddling you. He snuggles you against his body and his hands cradle your breasts again.

"I'm sorry, but I can't help it." He says and then hides his face between them making you laugh.

"What are you doing?" you laugh as he slides down and rests his head on your belly.

"I enjoy having you." He says simply and it gives you goosebumps.

"Of having me?"

"Yes..." He leans back on his elbows staring at you. "We're friends, co-workers, but I'd like us to... I'd like us to have a relationship." He confesses to you and you look at him with surprise.

"Dating?"

"Yes, it's just that I read wrong..." He starts to speak, but you shake your head.

"No, it's not that, it's just... I'm the one who thought you'd never be interested in me like that."

"I'm sorry, but it's going to be impossible for you to keep my hands off all of this." He says hugging and kissing you. "I like you and if you're not comfortable with the scene we'll talk to the producers, if we both refuse they'll have to change it."

"No, you're right, I'm proud of who I am, I'm not going to hide." You smile and he smiles with you, kissing you.

"This is my big brave girl." He whispers against your mouth and his arms hug you tighter snuggling you against his chest.

The End.

In the end, guided by your ideas and a little bit by mine, this is what came out, I hope you like it, that it is at least a little bit similar to what you had in your mind.

I hope you enjoyed it and thank you very much for your request, sweetie, I had a lot of fun writing it.

See you all in the next stories!!

[nulltune]

Plots please for either samatoki or my doppo whoever u have any ideas for 😎

plots please,  open !    @mrhcre  ♡

first of all i think the difference in their demeanors is so facking funny VSNFJWKDN samatoki who is always >:( and hakuno who is always :| ? i also love the difference in their speech patterns too because hakuno's almost way too formal and polite whereas samatoki is.... -insert clip of him saying yo yo my fellow chicks and d*cks from yokohama here- yknow ?! also i see that he's quick to start fights and hakuno is against unnecessary violence so methinks she would 🙏 try to stop him!! it's not just all hakuno scolding tho okok.... if he's hurt or bleeding she'd offer him an ice pack or handkerchief and maybe just sit in silence with him for a while

also 😨 HIM BEING PART OF THE YAKUZA IS INTERESTING !!!!! it doesn't show on her face but hakuno's not fearless okok and she'd be a widdle intimidated just by that title! she's not going to judge him solely based on that though and if she ever finds out his reason for joining (aka for his sister) then that'd boost her opinion of him significantly!! hakuno has no family you see (or friends or any meaningful bond yknow </3) so him rlly cherishing his sister is 🥺 smth she'd rlly..... (narratorlynn vc hakuno does not have the words for it but she desires that kind of connection so yeaaa ^_T)

i see him smoking a lot so 👁👁 hi sir, what would you do if miss ma'am hakuno asked you for one? she normally has no interest in smoking but i just think that maaaybe when she's at a particularly low point she'd try- if only because "when taken in small amounts, nicotine causes pleasant feelings and distracts the user from unpleasant feelings" </3 but also i don't think she'd like it at all VDJJWKDGSJD if he does give her one she'd just have an absolute failgirl moment and start coughing like mad after one (1) inhale 🗿 this could segway to hakuno opening up to him abt some deeper stuff tho!! mayhaaaps ?? 👀✨️

and um... either?? or??? NAHH SMOLIE I AM GRABBING BOTH AND GENTLY HOLDING THEM....🥺 i am also grabbing ur shoulders rn :obewon: because ily and u can literally just tell me a muse u wanna write, and i would absolutely be down to throw a moon lady at em 🫶🫶💖💞🤧 so yes ur absolutely getting some for dearest doppie as well <3 THEY'RE SILLY (AFFECTIONATE)

IMAGINE HAKUNO ACTUALLY SEEING HIM RAP THOOUGHH !!! (hakuno vc 📢📢 let's gooo mc name DOPPO) and she'd like to give him her regards afterstage(??) but oh man i just think it'd be in the most 😭?? Embarrassing way ever. (hakuno vc it was cool how you... shouted at that one part.) 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️ she really would be so supportive tho!! 🥺 it's a good outlet for his feelings and she'd be glad if it helps him with his stress! but also don't let her meet his other bandmates bc i feel like she would be kind Embawwassing (hakuno vc thank you for taking care of kannonzaka 🙇‍♀️) and especially don't let her meet the doctor because she'd ask him if doppo's talked to him abt his..... stomach issues

but speaking of that! i'm so sorry doppie but hakuno's gonna keep an eye out for your daily meals !! it's a good thing tho i prommy!!! you know that one meme about the preparing breakfast? left is the one hakuno prepared for doppo and right is the one for herself 😌✨️ that, but imagine it in bento form and i feel like it'd be so facking jarring to get lunch from ur super stoic coworker and you just open it up to see the cutest character bento looking thing GEJFHWKD but hakuno's not the best at cooking so like- imagine it being like those bootleg figurines of official merchandise 🧍‍♂️ and yet she has cuts on her hands from preparing it 🧍‍♂️ she tried her best tho!!! 🥺

on a more serious note though! i think hakuno would understand that he's just feeling anxious and she would understand and try to be there for him in any way that helps 🙏 (thinking abt what we talked a bit at discord) she can understand the feeling of not wanting to be a nuisance and the reason she always tries to be so calm and composed (outside of her sucking so bad at expressing herself her expression is just 😐) is also for that reason! so they absolutely have some things in common! <- the reason why hakuno would be so understanding, but also imagine her opening up to him abt her feeling like that too ?!

[♡] prompt: "i don't think i want to let go. not yet. let's stay like this for a while."

pairing: kang taehyun x reader

word count: 950+

author's note: so sorry if this took way too long, lol :( i actually just rushed this one too, i think... and i wish i could have made it better i swear i dont write this badly AHBJWKJDJKB but i hope you like it still. <3

“y/n? are you okay? you look as if your soul just flew to a different universe,” taehyun remarked jokingly as soon as he walked inside the music room. his classes had ended just in time, so he went to look for you so he could walk you home. however, taehyun wasnt expecting to see you so tired and drained out upon entering, a part of him regretting he even had the energy to joke like that.

as soon as you had finished your club meeting earlier, you rushed your way into this room, which just had to be located on the fourth floor. you had just finished practicing for a performance at the music festival to be held at the university. thankfully for you, practice went smoothly and didn’t take you too long. your groupmates had left early so they could hang out, so you were left on your own. initially, you were actually excited for the performance itself and to talk to taehyun about it because he loved listening to whatever you had to say about your day, but today is just not for you. not to mention that you had to cram lots of papers this week, so being in your great mood just seemed to be out of your options.

you dully stared at the wall in front of you as you were seated on the soft couch in the room. thank the gods for giving the higher-ups of this school the idea to place these kinds of chairs in each club room, otherwise, you probably would have been whining in irritation as soon as practice had finished. a yawn drew out from you, tiredly muttering out the only response you could think of at the moment, “i want hugs.” your shoulders were slumped, eyes so close to closing shut. the couch was getting way too comfortable that you might just fall asleep any minute, but as much as you hate battling your own sleepiness, you have to. at this point, all you wanted was to be cared and loved for.

“...okay?”

funny how you almost expected your own boyfriend would help you out, when he himself is typically not a big fan of showing affection in public. you knew that he would definitely spoil you if you were probably at some place else with more privacy like your homes, but you are just in dire need of affection urgently.

you heard his footsteps near you, but you paid no mind to it as you scrolled through your phone, passing time for a few more minutes before you get going. taehyun took a seat beside you, his weight sinking on the other side of the couch. you moved aside a bit to make space for him as a way to acknowledge his presence, without trying to look so upset and needy.

from the corner of your eye, you could see his body twist towards your direction, raising his knee up to rest his right leg beside you so he could face you properly. you were questioning him inwardly, placing your phone down beside you before your eyes, that were drained of life, met taehyun’s. you raised an eyebrow when you observed his position; his right hand was rested on his thigh, with his left one a bit elevated.

taehyun chuckled, lifting his left arm further mid-air as if to invite you in, “well? what are you waiting for? come into my arms.” he could only giggle more when you’re unresponsive for a few moments, looking at him as if you had just seen a ghost. he wished that you would just quit the thinking and just crash into his arms, because he could actually feel the embarrassment seep more bit by bit with each second that passed by.

“what’s gotten into you?”

“please, you’re making me look bad. it’s not like i despise affection that much.” he said, scooting a bit closer to your figure, “come on now.”

your cheeks were flushing red, your lower lip curling into a pout. finally, affection to patch up your needy ass. you turned your body to face him and leaned forward, and taehyun wasted no time in tenderly encircling your figure in his arms, a hand resting on your shoulder and his other on your lower back, as his thumbs so gently squeezed and caressed them in comfort.

you really, really liked the feeling of hugs when they’re from taehyun, more than you’d like to admit. you felt safe, and they were enough to shoo your exhaustion away. you dragged out a content sigh, gradually just sinking your weight on his chest with your arms wrapped around his torso, and your hands loosely locked with each other. taehyun just seemed to melt into it too, laying his chin on top of your head as he held you closer against him.

“bad day?” he asked softly before placing a firm, chaste kiss on the crown of your head. that was enough to send your heart soaring to another universe. not that it was his first time doing these kinds of stuff, but he doesn’t do it often, so you’re glad that he was showing you this side of him. his form of love comes in words and quality time, and physical touch is more of an honorable mention.

“you’re gonna make me cry,” you laughed into his chest, a happy and content smile curling on your lips, “it’s not that bad, i think. i’m just really tired. but i hate feeling tired, so yeah? maybe it is a bad day - or more like, a bad week.”

taehyun hummed quietly, rubbing your upper back in hopes that it would make you feel better. to be honest, he’s actually quite bothered about the possibility of someone walking in, the worst case scenario being a faculty staff or the guard by the hallway, not wanting to get reprimanded for displaying affection within the school’s premises. but fuck it — it hurt seeing you so drained and out of life, and he wants to wash it all away and be the one you would call your comfort.

and of course, he’s doing a great job at it.

thinking that you were feeling a bit better, you placed your hand on his chest, attempting to break away from the hug, “you can let go now, we might get c—”

“no, i don't think i want to let go. not yet.” he murmured, only pulling you close to him again. you were a bit surprised at the action, but hey, you’re not complaining. “let's stay like this for a while.”

you giggled, momentarily placing your hands on his shoulders, “okay,” whispering softly, you planted a delicate kiss on his cheek, then sinking back into his comfortable, cozy grasp.
