hey, lovelies. just dropping a note here that i’m still alive!!

i think i’ve just needed to resume my little break that i was on before s6 dropped bc i haven’t been able to convince myself to log in here. not bc i don’t still have muse or anything but... vo/ltron is kind of just that draining, maybe?? idk i’ve had more muse elsewhere and even there i’ve been struggling with the energy and focus to write so logging in here even to keep up with IMs and the dash is just hard to fathom lmao...

basically, what i’m saying is that for now, please consider this blog on semi-hiatus. i absolutely have plans to keep shiro going but i just need this break to last a bit longer. you can find me actively over here for the time being until i start logging in here regularly again ( there’s a voltron verse in the works if that matters ) AND/OR mutuals are welcome to add me on disco ( lightish black#9719 ), just lmk who you are if u do. <3

Here we’ve got asks that aren’t to ask a question but are just really nice messages. Thank you all for sending us such kind comments ;v;. It’s seriously heartwarming to see so many people having good experiences with the game. I don’t even know what to say to such sweet responses.

We’ll keep doing our best and thank you again to each and every one of you for giving Our Life a chance ❤!

Hello! I've been following this account and have been following the development of 'Our Life' for a few months now, and I just wanted to say thank you for all your hard work and dedication you have put into the game. It astonishes me how much choice you have during the sequence of Our Life and am excited to play the full version now, I am downloading it as I write this message. I've had a great time seeing the demo transition into to the full game and just wanted to write two words. Thank you.

Anhhhhffbgdfbhujk!!! Congratulations on the release, I’m playing the game right now! Thank you all for your hard work and I can’t wait for the Step 3 DLC to come out, I’ll probably wait for the Step 3 DLC to come out to experience everything, but until then, I still have a lot to play. Thank you once again!

finished my first playthrough just now. it just felt so wholesome ??? 100/10 would do it again. i laughed. i cried. i got angry. i felt second-hand embrassment— i got so into it i was left in literal tears after getting my first ending. the art, the storyline, the music, and COVE HOLDEN– UGH IT WAS LITERAL PERFECTION ❤ THE WAIT WAS WORTH IT. THANK YOU FOR MAKING SUCH AN AMAZING GAME 🥺😭 this made my 2020 better, i can't wait for step 4 in 2021 ❤❤

So I was following you guys on itchio for years and uhh did I stay up til 6 am on a school night to finish the game? Yes. Did I sob my eyes out during step 3 as a 20 year old having doubts about life and adulthood? Absolutely. I can't form proper sentences right now due to lack of sleep but just wanted to say thank you for making it. I honestly feel lighter and I feel like it changed my views on future to be more optimistic... I can't wait to replay it! Thanks again!

I love how Our Life turned out!! I keep replaying it and can't stop squeaking and giggling!! Thank You for creating it ♥

okay i have actually fallen in love with cove and cannot WAIT to marry him 😭

Hi! I played through 'Our Life' yesterday and  I just wanna say how refreshing it was to be able to have Cove be 'high initiative' and also have so many opportunities to initiate affection from the player character! As a pretty flirtatious/affectionate person myself, I notice that a lot of VNs don't give players that agency, and affection can be kinda 'carrot on a stick' if that makes sense. You guys did an awesome job! I look forward to seeing if there are more of those moments in Step 3 & 4 :)

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the option to choose Cove's level of initiative in step 3! As much I love the option to choose I personally enjoy have the romanced character take the lead without my input so when I got to step 3 and had to option to make it so that Cove initiated affection without as much input from me I was really happy! You guys seriously added so much freedom in terms of choices, it's almost baffling that the only thing you have to pay for is optional DLC!

I absolutely loved everything about the game and I really want congratulate the team for making the game such a satisfying experience.

I look forward to step 4

❤️❤️❤️❤️

* and sorry for my bad English

Just finished my first play through and I loved it! I've been looking forward to the game and it definitely was worth the wait. Thank you all for your hard work and can't wait for the extra dlc!

Till then, hope you guys gets some well deserved rest🤗

Love you guys, thank you so much for your hard work. :)

Ok, so I just finished Our Life and, wow. I have never cried at a video game before, ever. Thank you so, so much! Its one of my favorites.

this isn't a question, but i just wanted to say how much i enjoyed our life 🥺 i've been patiently looking forward to the full game for a few months now, and i couldn't be happier with it! i've only played through it once so far but the outcomes of the choices i made were all so soft and wholesome 💗 i can tell that everyone who was involved really worked hard and you all did an incredible job! i can't wait to see what else is in store 👍

i’d just like to say how addictive our life is!!! i constantly played it during quarantine and now playing the full release is so amazing to me!! i love that i’m still discovering dialogue bits with different personalities and actions!!! i have to admit that i’ve been wishing the day to pass faster all day during school so i could go home and play again. mentally i’m not the healthiest and our life being released has boosted it up so much, thank you for creating such an amazing game!!!!!

Hey, I just wanna say I played our life two times and it still give me the same feelings. I was really looking forward to this game before it came out and I kept on replaying the demo. This game is such an amazing experience and I feel so happy playing it. I am not really a person good with words unfortunately but I do honestly love this more than anything in the world. Thank you for making it and I hope that you will continue to make more games like our life. This game really makes me happy and I can't thank you enough

Just wanted to say that Our Life really made me feel seen as an 18 year old trans man who's been struggling with change as of late and I can't thank you guys enough for it. I just finished the main story and currently released DLC's and gosh, I can really only say... woah. Just, woah. The messages are somehow exactly what I needed to hear right now, and they brought me a lot of comfort in this really weird and confusing time in my life. Can't wait to see what comes next in this lovely story <3

I am honestly in love with Our Life. The graphics, the soundtrack its just *chef's kiss* It was so worth the wait for it. I can't wait for step 4. Keep up the good work GB Patch!

good people i have just finished Our Life and let me say, it was beautiful. rarely have such non-fantastical moments (and even some fantastical moments) brought me to tears like this game has, and i don't even have the dlc (yet). i don't know how you did it but it felt like i was playing a slice of life anime. i had waited with baited breath to play this since i played the demo and my expectations were not just met but surpassed. from the bottom of my heart thank you for this game

I found the game by chance and I am so so glad I did. It’s so inclusive and made me feel so incredibly seen. Seeing that my gender identity and sexuality were possible just meant the absolute world to me. I’ve never seen something like this and it just made me so incredibly happy. Thank you for the absolutely amazing game and I can’t wait to see what’s next.

Hello! I downloaded Our life earlier this week and I'm only now getting the chance to play it (Very busy and stressful week) I'm so excited to play and I wanna say thank you for making this adorable game!

I just finished my first playthrough of Our Life and I can't even express how much I love it. Cove is absolutely precious and has killed me several times, and the art and soundtrack is beautiful. I love all the small different choices. I'm very interested in the Derek and Baxter DLCs and the rest, can't wait!!!!!!

thank you for "Our Life Beginnings & Always" it has to be one of the best visual novels i ever have played and i just dont want it to end (i know it will, but damn it! i want to have a wedding night, have children and die of old age with cole! XD) when i play it it always makes me tear up (in a good way) and i am most definetly going to buy all the dlc that you make! thank you for this lovely game and all the work that went into it! (ps: i also loved "lake of voices" )

You guys are incredibly talented and im very proud of you all! You've really outdone yourselves w/ OL and i cant wait to see whats next to come for you all :)

i really love that you can be trans in Our Life! not a lot of games do that so i just wanted to say thank you!

Guuyyss!! I just wanna say! Thank you sm for the headscarf option in the MC creator! I especially loved that little detail where MC quickly slips the headscarf on before greeting Cove, I've never felt so immersed :'D Not that the rest of the game wasn't immersive btw, but since I wear my hijab most of the time that little addition really felt like something I would do! So thank you for that <3

I've been watching "Our Life: Beginnings & Always" development for quite some time, and I gotta say its wild to see it finally release. Its so unique in the way relationships work- even character creation. I've cried multiple times over this game while playing. I can't thank y'all enough for a game with these kind of mechanics, and representation. its rare I get to feel im really playing as myself in games like these. Everyones outdone themselves. this'll certainly be one I keep coming back to.

I've been following the development of Our Life from way back when the first demo dropped and it still blows my mind how many choices and customizations there are (love that update for the MC's bedroom btw!) and the fact that the game remembers them - it really feels like your very own coming of age story! I was so immersed I cried at the end :') Can't believe I experienced this game for free lol. I can't wait for future DLCs and Step 4! Good luck with all your upcoming projects dev team!!

Just wanted to say I love Our Life and I'm thankful it exists. Thank you so much! I love the little world you created and all the people in it. Especially Cove! This game makes me so happy!

Just poping in to say hi and that ilu guys ^^, remember to take care of yourselves!

Hi!! I just wanna thank you for creating such an amazing game. Our Life is one of the few dating sims I’ve found that let’s me be a male mc, it’s really hard to find dating sims that let me be gay. Our Life is my new favorite dating sim to just sit down and playthrough whenever I’m having a bad day so I just wanted to let y’all know how much I appreciate all you’ve done. 🤍

Fan from australia here

Just wanted to reach out and let you know how important this game has been to me. I came across it at a really rough time ( that I’m still going through ) and it’s been one of the things that’s driven me to get up and out of bed sometimes.

This game and cove both hold a very special place in my heart and I can’t wait to see more of him in the DLC and Step 4

Much love ♥️

I know this isnt exactly the main focus of the game, but i really love how we can customise the mc personality wise! This is the first time i've played a game like this where the mc actually does and says exactly what I would do and say in certain situations and its such a breath of fresh air!! It's also so cool how the other characters can pick up on it!!

Cove Holden saved 2020 (my 2020 anyways) I would die for him

Sorry for this being out of the blue, but after playing through Our Life I wanted to thank you for the experience. I don’t know if I’ve ever played a game that has made me cry happy tears TWICE lol. It’s beautiful, scenic, inclusive, and absolutely amazing..have a great rest of 2020 and I honestly cannot wait for the rest of it :,) (ps. The ending song is stuck in my head)

I think you guys might've ruined visual novels for me forever. I'm not sure I'll be able to play another without comparing it to Our Life and I know if I do that I'll be disappointed every time because of how amazing it is. I bought the DLCs before playing the base game it's one of the best impulsive purchases I've ever made

Thank you so much for making our life! It's my favorite visual novel ever and I just can't articulate how much being able to just be honest with my responses instead of going for whatever would make the love interest happy means to me? I reccomended it to evry friend I have that plays visual novels because this is the best one I've ever played!

Just wanted to say that I absolutely adore this game! The childhood friends tropes is my favorite thing and this game delivers! Cove is the sweetest thing, infact all the boys are good boys. Super excited for all upcoming dlcs!

Hi, I just want to thank you for making such an amazing game like Our Life. Tbh, I was following the game’s development for a while, but me and my family moved away from my childhood town just a few days before release, so I really connected to this game. You all did amazing!

hey just wanted to know that i completely loved ol: b&a and it was so good and love cove more than i’ve liked any fictional character, it’s now my comfort media. thank you so much

hi i just wanna say i really enjoyed all of the representation in our life b&a! there were characters with a lot of different body shapes, pic characters, lgbtq+ characters, and you get to choose your own pronouns and sexuality!!! so tysm!!

This isn't a question, I just wanted to say that Our Life is incredible. Ever since I finished it, I've been looking for other visual novels to play so I don't play OL so often that I start memorizing the lines before all the DLC comes out, but I keep coming back to it. It's really one of a kind, I think you all ruined other visual novels for me because I haven't enjoyed another VN like I have this one since I read it ❤.

i think our life b&a is the first game where i felt like cove loved me, not the character i play as which is really nice for someone with kinda low self esteem so THANK YOU

I’ve been playing Our Life practically nonstop since yesterday. I just want everyone who worked on it to know how much the LGBTQ inclusivity means to me. As a closeted trans ace guy in an unsupportive household, I can’t emphasize how much of a comfort this game has been to me. Everything about it is so wholesome and heartfelt. I’m excited to see what other games you make in the future 💙

- A demibiromantic ace transgender man who may or may not have cried over the option to be myself in a game for the first time ever

Csn i just say i really appreciate how you handled MC deciding to use they/them at different stages. Mainly because alot of games don't pay much attention to the body the mc was assigned at birth if they player chooses nonbinary like it does with male/female. And it was just nice to be able to play an mc who just thought gender was kinda 'meh' for them but still felt good about the body they were born with (like myself). I guesd it boils down I'm really appreciative of the hard work it must've taken for you to make all those options possible & still have them matter.

I just wanted to thank you all for Our Life. My mental health hasn't been in a good place recently and it has become my favorite form of escapism/way to cheer up. It's idyllic setting and fantastic characters are such a good way to wind down, I love it. Also, I've been dreading 2021 due to classes starting and general stress, but the DLC and your next project have given me something to actually look forward to :). I'm so excited for them and now I actually have a reason to be happy that it's 2021. Sorry if this message is a bit weird, I just wanted to thank the team for their hard work and for creating something so incredible <3

I've gotta say this is one of the most repayable games I've ever played, if not the most. Usually after i do a playthrough or two of a game i have to wait awhile before playing again otherwise it feels stale. But i haven't had that problem with our life because of the sheer ammount of player agency. Everyone who works on tbe game should feel incredibly proud of themselves because you've created something amazing.

I just wanted to say thank you for Our Life. I'm sure you get this a lot, but it really pulled me out of a mentally tough spot in my life. So thank you.

who needs therapy when you have our life: beginnings and always? haha no but seriously this game is my comfort game, and even though i can’t join your patreon at the moment please know i am always supporting you and i am so excited to see everything you have in store! everyone who works on the games is so so talented

All DLCs have nice content. 😡���

And I love them all!!💗💗💗💖💖💖💕💕💕

danny phantom 8-13 thoughts! again, under the cut bc I blew through 6 episodes in one go...

-LOVE THE WAY THE GHOST ZONE LOOKS. but theres fucking ghost cops??? ghost jail??? that SUCKS imagine dying and going to jail in your AFTERLIFE. danny going to JAIL WAS NOT something I expected. but seeing all the enemies together and work with danny to bust out. SO ICONIC I love that actually. and the thing about real world stuff acting as ghosts in the ghost zone is very cool.

-'there are some things more important that hunting ghosts!' mrs fenton says, about her husband forgetting their anaversary (FOR THE 18TH YEAR IN A ROW?? CHRIST) and not about, idk, their son clearly freaked out. she didnt even notice he was gone into the ghost zone!!! he might be a bad husband BUT shes not the best mom. they suck and I don't care about their relationship problems I care about these kids. danny doing his best to clean the house to keep his mom from getting mad at his dad?? hes such a good boy I want to cry, this is not his place, his dad should be cleaning his own shit up!!!

-maddie's butch lesbian sister is living my best life in her lil cabin. also being a snarky bitch to jack. queen. and her getting a 10th anniversary of her divorce. LOVE IT.

-mr. lancer being a cheerleader in his younger years makes perfect sense to me. king shit.

-dr. spectra's cat ears/mullet hairstyle?? sooo cute. I also just love the concept of a ghost just. sucking out people's positivity and feeding on emotions. a great villain. she put danny in a fucking diaper what the FUCK. and keeping it cold so no one would suspect shes a ghost??? INCREDIBLE. and her gay little blob sidekick. wlw mlm evil solidarity.

-JAZZ FOCUSED EP. YEAAAH!!! her first thought when she saw the ghosts was like 'omg i gotta tell danny :)' and her going to the teacher and also councilor trying to get help for him...shes just 16 but shes trying so hard to help him out :( watching this when youre younger I can imagine ppl are like omg annoying!! but watching this when im older im just like :( jazz baby im SO sorry </3 SHE BODIED THAT GHOST THOUGH. and the fact she didnt tell danny she knew surprised me. like, shes patient and waiting on him to tell her when hes ready!! thats so so sweet.

-christ the parents talking about 'PEELING IT LIKE AN ONION. AND EXAMINING REMAINS' of ghosts RIGHT INFRONT OF DANNY.

-'why am i so depressed and angry all the time!!' DANNY YOURE 14. i mean it IS a ghost this time, but...

-579$ top?? VALERIE NO ITS NOT EVEN CUTE IT DOESNT EVEN GO WITH THAT OUTFIT AAAA. tho this ep is called shades of gray..VALERIE FOCUSED EP FINALLY????! *THUNDEROUS APPLAUSE* I already knew about red huntress from my redesigns, but I didn't exactly know what that entails or how/why, so, it's fun to see the Origins.

-ghost pubby! ghost pubby!!!!! why is the dog a ghost?? the implication that the company had guard dogs and got rid of them...what did they DO. is it just the unfinished business?? of not having that toy it was looking for?? god I hope so.

I feel SOOO bad for valerie tho, my god. her friends are shunning her for what, because her dad lost her job and she had to move??? horrible. (and the fact the dog wrecked the moving van too...) I also love how 'from wisconsin' on the package was an IMMEDIATE RED FLAG FOR ME. WISCONSIN=EVIL NOW. vlads so petty.

-it took valerie like 5 mins to get the hang of hunting ghosts and shes already a much bigger threat than his parents tbh. who've been trying and studying this for years. and a more valid reason <3 love her shes so cute and cool. new daughter alert.

-'i should do SOMETHING to help valerie' no shit danny???

-'who is that, awesome outfit!' -top gay sam moments. i was going to say. before it immediately cuts to sam kissing danny LMFAOOO. don't think I like that, it puts tucker in a weird third wheel position... the next ep involves them holding hands and blushing when danny's cold...URGH No. not a fan ngl. the trope of 'if theres a girl in a trio she has to end up with one of the two guys!!'

-right as I say that they take it to extremes!! and ember shoots him with a love ray gun that makes him OBSESSIVE OVER SAM. AND SHE TAKES HIS HANDS AND SAYS 'YOU DONT FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT ME, I DONT FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT YOU' and her saying she doesnt want to be together like this. and tucker saying 'i always knew you two would get together!!' dont manifest it tucker please. the show pushing for it so hard makes me not want it KSHKJKJD I KNOW its probably canon. it sucks though. im a hater.

-vlad just LURKING AROUND THE SCHOOL GIVING VALERIE GIFTS ASJKDHKJ YOU WEIRD PETTY OLD MAN GO HOME!!!

-EMBERRRRR YOU WILL REMEMBERRRRRR . this is the one thing I kinda remember from when I was a kid EMBERRRRR ilu. top 10 cartoon bops. sams being a hater. popular things are popular for a reason. mr. lancer also being a hater. also everyone wearing her color scheme ..its a really good look, the purple, black, and minty color...

-penguins exist in the ghost zone. confirmed.

-EMBER JUST SHOWING UP AT A RANDOM HIGHSCHOOL TO PLAY?? UNANNOUNCED, MID DAY??? girl get a tour schedule. make some money or smth damn. I know shes probably doing it for the power boost but. lord. anyway if your show doesnt have a concert scene/ep, is it even valid.

-fellas is this gay. (she uses a GRAPPLING HOOK TO SHOOT OUT THE WINDOW AFTER SEEING AN EMBER VAN GO BY RIGHT AFTER THIS SHOT)

-hey, she had an undercut at some point!! my redesign!!! was accurate!! in..a way

-I feel like danny has a lot of pent up aggression ngl, him being heartbroken about sam and immediately going IM GONNA GO TAKE IT OUT ON EMBER. I mean she needs to be stopped I guess But. jazz has the right idea he needs therapy and a HEALTHY outlet.

-tucker singing > my singing

-girls cant be gamers -tucker and danny sexist moments. her being chaos in the game OWNED.

-TUCKERS HAT IS A BERET??? I THOUGHT IT WAS A BEANIE. SAM CALLED IT A BERET. WH.

-it was actually nice of lancer to let danny retake the test, and he go to play games again. smh. epic cringe gamer moments compilation. and driving him home!!! I actually like him as a character. anyway teachers like lancer are SO appreciated. I was failing middle school because of mental problems, and felt so dumb and got embarrassed by teachers who would just get onto me instead of bothering to ask what the real problem was, but when I was taking my ged classes I had a wonderful teacher who kept reassuring me that I was smart, and I got honors!! danny is SUCH a little shit to him (understandable, 14, but) but seeing them getting along better and danny putting in effort. SO CUTE. THATS MY SON, STUDYING HARD!!!! and being so PROUD OF HIMSELF!!! 91!!! BITCH!!! A- is STILL AN A!!!

-'why dont they ever realize thats me in a dress' mr lancer i am CRYING. i realized.

-technus being my ghost grandpa who cant game asking tucker for help. bless his heart. his out of date old ppl lingo circles back to being endearing <3 tucker not recognizing him despite the like, lack of any kind of serious disguise...I do love their lil in-game outfits....sam being the tank rules. I like technus' spider design also. more characters need to be giant freaky spiders, imo.

-finding your gf a new host because she cant maintain her ghost body outside the zone? amazing. using jazz as the host? ILL KILL YOU. jazz immediately accepting a ride home from a guy she just met and letting him know where she lives. letting him IN THE HOUSE??? nooo girl no lets use common sense </3

-sooo cringe the parents were like 'good job for spying on your sister' tho wtffff. doesnt matter if hes a bad guy, thats fucked. everytime these parents BREATHE im like. these are MY kids now <3

-BAD LUCK BEING A THEME OF THE 13TH EPISODE. thats super fun. johnny 13 being his name is so. iconic. your last name is a NUMBER? also goth tucker. I actually love the look. everyone looks good goth. 'the ladies love the eyeliner and onyx nail polish' sam you are sooo right every man needs to at least try those two things. im a lesbian and I agree. same, danny, your bff is gnc af

-LOVE kitty's design. and just, the concept of a ghost with a bike. couple goals, except yes stay away from jazz.

[lyriumvolk]

Hey guys, I’m going to try and be more active here. I just needed sometime to sort things out in my silly head. Anyways, you can always talk to me freely on discord, ( Snoot Snoot#9391 ) , or I may be on my multimuse [X] for today. 

ilu guys and hope you’re having better days <3 Thank you for being patient,

[daminettes]

made with love

hello thank you miss @fsketchart for this amazing idea ilu

It's warm inside the manor, It smells like, cinnamon, and brown sugar. The early morning light slants through the windows.

You see, Damian has been having a very rough week. Jason,Tim, Dick and him having been dealing with the Joker for the past few days, this has led him to many sleepless nights. On top of that he had to work his tail off everyday as an intern at Wayne Enterprises. Every morning he would be sitting on the couch facing the cozy fireplace that was in the middle of the living room with a blank expression on his face, and it made Marinette’s heart break. This morning it was even worse. He would not respond to anything she was saying due to sleep deprivation. She couldn't stand seeing her Damian like this. So she was determined to fix him right up.

Marinette thought it would be a great idea to make Damian some of her father's world famous cinnamon rolls!

-

Marinette tossed sugar, salt, milk, eggs, and milk into the bowl, and started to kneading the dough together. The room was quickly filled with an overly sweet sense that lead Jason and Alfred into the room.

Jason’s faces lit up like a Christmas tree, He quickly ran over to the counter and tried to take a quick lick of the spatula that was smothered in cinnamony goodness, but was quickly pushed away by Marinette’s hand.

“Aw come on rosy cheeks! Let me have a taste!”

“No Jason, These are for Damian, He has been having a rough couple of days so I decided to make him some of my dads famous cinnamon rolls for him! I’m going to drop them off later!” She said while trying to push him out of the room.

“That is very nice of you Miss Marinette.”

“Why, Thank you Alfred, Since you are being so sweet and patient would you like to try some of the frosting?”

“HEY THAT'S NOT FAIR I WAS BEING NICE,” Jason screamed at the top of his lungs. But was clearly ignored by Marinette and Alfred.

Marinette quickly grabbed a spoon and scooped up a big portion of the heavenly cream.

Alfred slowly accepted the spoon and he was amazed.

“Wow Miss Marinette this is amazing, Your father is very talented. I could practically taste all the love you put into it!”

“Thank you Alfred, I poured my heart and soul into this” Marinette quickly smiled.

“THIS IS NO FAIR I WANT SOME!!!”

-

By the time Marinette was done with the cinnamon rolls it was already noon.

“Hey Jason, Do you think its ok if you dropped me off at Wayne Enterprises? I know Damian has been tired and I think it would be a good idea to drop these off for him now.”

“Only if you let me try one of your cinnamon rolls.”

“Ugh fine”

Jason quickly ran up to Marinette bouncing up and down on the tip of his toes. He practically snatched the warm cinnamon roll out of Marinette’s hand.

As soon as he took his first bite, His face lit up. The cinnamon roll practically melted in his mouth, It was quite dense but still so soft and airy at the same time. How is that even possible?

“Wow pixie-pop! These are amazing! Damian is going to love these!”

“I sure hope so”

-

They both quickly made their way to Wayne Enterprises. Marinette was a nervous mess. Sure she has been dating Damian for about a year but still? She just wanted to see him happy. She missed his sweet smile he used to flash at her whenever she walked into the room.

“Hey Don’t worry Marinette! I'm sure these are going to make him feel ten times better!”

“I'm just scared, He hasn’t been himself lately, And I hate seeing him like this.”

“Trust me it will be fine”

They both made it up to the floor Damian was working on. Jason quickly knocked down the door causing Damian to jump.

“Hey whats up Demon Spawn!”

“What do you want. I'm not in the mood for your bullshit.”

“Hey no need to get your panties in a twist! I have a little surprise for you!”

He quickly pushed Marinette in front of him as if he was showing off an award.

Damian quickly got up to his feet and made his way towards his angel.

“Angel, What are you doing here? Is something wrong?” He questioned while scanning her for injuries.

“Im fine Dami, I just came here to check up on you, I know you haven't been feeling the best so I decided to make you some sweets! I hope you like them!” She smiled while handing him the book full of sweets.

The little box was wrapped around with light pink fabric with little hearts on it. It was tied up with a white silk ribbon. 

How adorable, Damian thought to himself.

He quickly undid the ribbon and was hit with a sweet fragrance that made his body feel warm and loved.

“Angel, You shouldn't of have.” He said while pulling her into a bear hug.

“I just wanted to make you feel better, I hate seeing you like this.” She said into his chest.

“What would I ever do without you,” He said while placing a lil kiss onto Marinette’s hair.

“Come on already take a bite! Tell me what you think about it!” Marinette said while bouncing around.

“Oh alright.”

Damian quickly picked up one of the cinnamon rolls and took a big bite.

This is incredible! How can someone be so talented? He thought to himself.

“Angel, These are amazing, Thank you so much,” Damian gushed while placing a light kiss onto her lips.

“Did they make you feel better?” Marinette questioned.

“Ten times better.”

-

I hope you guys enjoyed this!!! I love you all <3

[birdsong-warriors]

AAAH THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL THE KIND WORKS YOU GUYS (and I'm so glad to have therapist approval haha!) , I'll try and write down a few things, but I will say that going in to something like that is highly personal to whatever you need. And while at an amazing place, there were a lot of horror stories from other institutions there, so I think its individual to everyone. That being said, I'll try and share the most helpful things I picked up!!

(I'm gonna tag this as... let's go with "Bird's Psych Adventure" lol so if this isn't your thing, I won't be offended if you filter that tag!!)

First and foremost, look up the locations near you. I had two options. One place had one star on Google Maps, and I had heard many unpleasant things about it, so I took a risk and went with the very new but highly praised place and that ended up being a good choice. They do have rules about these places like controlled release of information and stuff (basically, you can choose I think just one person who they can update your situation to. Anybody you didn't sign an agreement for can't get any info from them about how you're doing!!)

I read this article before going in, and found it helpful on a practical side. ^^

1. SOCIALIZE. I'm not kidding this is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. The place I went to would let you hide, especially the first day, but they got a point; festering in your negative emotions will only make things worse. Start small, because it will be hard, but everybody else is in the same boat and there will always be those who have been there longer than you and can tell you the basics and what to do. And it keeps you out of your bad feelings and very distracted. They're gonna take away your phone, so you gotta find other ways to stay entertained haha. Even if its just doing crossword puzzles in crappy crayon in the common room. But whenever you can stay in said common room instead of your room, do it!! It helps you feel less trapped too.

2. Get outside, if you can. We had limited outdoor time, but they let us have sports stuff and I got to play Frisbee with a VERY PATIENT older gentleman who helped me learn to actually throw and not hit someone in the head. XD On a related note, they usually have showers and stuff you can basically use anytime, take advantage of that and take care of yourself. It's kind of the only way you can spoil yourself there, and it feels good to put time into feeling better about yourself. ;u; That being said, they got CRAAAP DEODERANT AND THAT GETS SUPER ANNOYING SO SHOWERS ARE GREAT.

3. Breathing exercises are super crucial to keep calm, and it's easy to get homesick and upset about the situation. But the good thing is it does make you appreciate what you have when you go back in a way you will never reach without the experience. Take the time to self-evaluate and plan for simple stuff you'll do when you go back. I focused on thinking about renovating my room to make it a safer place for myself and sorting through my stuff. And don't plan for other people, plan for you, you're all you can control and while its EXTREMELY HARD to let go of your limited control of others, focus on you and what you need for you. <33 Reach out to those you love, but as someone told me there, have no expectations of what they say, and if they dont say something that's helpful or worse, say something uncalled for, ignore them. Those that matter won't mind, and those who mind won't matter. <3

4. They'll put you on meds to help, and you gotta tell them whether they're helping or not. If its making it worse, they want to know so they can help!! And eventually you should find meds that WILL help!

5. I know it doesn't help for everyone, but it helps me to think "five years from now, this hard moment won't matter and I'll be strong enough to move past it". Try not to say "I'm trying..." but "I CAN BE" or even better "I AM" AND GIVE YOURSELF POSITIVE TRAITS. If you deem yourself negative, you'll be negative, you can be better than that, you can be whoever you want and YOU ARE AWESOME AND WORTH IT DANG IT I WILL PERSONALLY FITE U AND TELL U SO DANG IT. <3333

6. The most important lesson I learned was "where did I get these doubts? Could I have learned wrong?" That's not how it was phrased exactly, but basically that you don't deserve these awful doubts and can KICK THEIR BUTT.

7. They should give you a journal, use it to put your feelings out there in a protected way and process them. My biggest stressor was a couple family members are big time triggers of mine and it helped me to write a letter to them that I never gave them because I was able to say "I don't care, I'm gonna work on my own life" but its still a big struggle.

TLDR; these people want to help you, but only you can help yourself. They aren't trying to """fix""" you, they want you to be the best you that you can be. You can do it, believe in yourself and you can get through this!!! I pray you can overcome any struggles you have, I believe in you even if I don't personally know you YOU GUYS ARE ALL AMAZING AND ILU AND I HOPE THIS POST IS AT LEAST VAGUELY HELPFUL IM SORRY IF ITS NOT BCOSHFBCKSBF

Dog Days Are Over (Or Not)

or, the uni student!Lucas and tattoo artist!Eliott fluff you didn’t ask for

Lucas is in the middle of a crisis. That’s the best way to describe his current situation. 

He just got back home from uni and discovered he had 1) failed one of his most important exams 2) managed to forget an essay due two hours ago 3) remembered he has 2 essays due to the next week that he hasn’t started yet and another exam coming up this week that he hasn’t started revising for either. 

In conclusion, he is well and truly fucked.

Naturally, the only logical thing for Lucas to do is go out on a stroll through the streets of Paris with the only thing Lucas managed to keep safe from his disastrous self: his cute little pomeranian, Ouba.

He walks her daily on their neighbourhood and she’s very popular over there, probably because she’s the only dog in their area, probably because she’s as chaotic as her owner. Lucas doesn’t really know, just knows that everyone seems to love her and spoil her with gifts and cute little doggy clothes on a daily basis.

He’s walking around their block with her, mind wandering far away from all things university related when he sees another guy, probably his age, maybe a bit older, walking towards them with his own dog. When the guy comes near them Lucas notices two things: 1) The guy is absolutely breathtakingly beautiful 2) his dog is a pitbull. A beautiful one at that, with black fur and the greenest eyes Lucas has ever seen on someone. But still, a pitbull. And Lucas fears for his precious dog’s life. He knows it’s stupid, but once again, its Ouba he’s talking about and that dog is at least twice her size.

The dog comes to a stop in front of Ouba and that makes them both stop too. The dog starts sniffing Ouba and it’s owner just smiles at their dogs and lets them resume their sniffing.

Ouba being the fierce little dog she is, just like her owner, starts barking at the pitbull’s face. Lucas doesn’t quite believe what he sees when the pitbull starts backing away almost shaking, bless it, because it seems terrified of Ouba.

“It’s okay, Luna, she’s just excited to meet you, right….?” Luna’s owner gets down on his knees to calm her down.

“Lucas”, Lucas offers with a small smile, nodding and looking down at Ouba.

While getting down on his knees to kindly tell Ouba off for scaring her potential new friend Lucas explains the situation to the stranger. “Ouba’s not really used to other dogs, you know,….?” He uses the same tactics the boy used on him in hopes to finding out his name. It does the trick.

“Eliott. I’m Eliott.” Eliott offers his hand and Lucas grabs it and shakes it gently. And as cliché as is it sounds Lucas feels his hand tingling at the touch and judging by the way Eliott’s eyes zero in on their hands he feels the same.

They quickly let go of each other’s hands and look at their dogs, who now seem to be having the time of their lives with each other, rolling on the ground and licking each other like they weren’t just having staring match 15 seconds ago.

“Maybe she could use a friend, then.” Eliott says.

Lucas agrees with a nod and a smile, getting up. “Maybe we could grab a coffee and go to the park? You know, so Luna and Ouba can get properly acquainted?” he suggests shyly, rubbing the back of his neck.

“Right now?” Eliott looks troubled, suddenly, getting up from the ground as well.

“If you’re free, of course.” Lucas is quick to add.

“It’s just. I have to go back to the parlour to close it in like, half an hour.” Eliott looks almost sad.

A tattoo artist, then. Okay.

“It’s alright. I, we, uh, we can do this another time. It’s no problem….”

“No!” Eliott almost shouts. “I’d really like to do this now, actually. Do you mind walking back with us to the parlour? It’s a 20 minute walk back and it’ll only take a minute to close it.” He looks almost desperate now.

Lucas smiles. “We’d love to.”

Eliott looks relieved when he smiles back.

So off they go, Luna and Ouba guiding the way.

Later, when Eliott drops him off at his flat with a kiss on his cheek, the promise to do this again tomorrow and his number saved on his phone under Eliott/Luna, Lucas thinks to himself that maybe deciding to walk Ouba in the middle of a crises was the best idea he’s had in a long time.

-

This is for @loca-over-luca because ilu and because you’re the most patient person with me when I come up with a thousand elu fic ideas that I end up not writing, so thank you for telling me I could do this and cheering me on.

This idea came up to me when I was getting home from uni and saw a man and a woman waiting for their dogs to stop sniffing each other at the sidewalk so they could go on with their lives, lmao. I’m sorry for the lack of creativity regarding Ouba’s name it’s just I can’t see a pomeranian with a name that’s not Ouba.

English isn’t my first language so sorry for any mistakes.

Obligatory Sentimental New Year Post

I realized I’ve not posted a lot the past few months. I’m definitely not bored of rdr2, far from it. I’ve just been very busy with other things in my life as of late. Also I met the best people in a RDR2 RP Discord and we’re still going strong over six months later! They’re amazing, their ocs are amazing, they’re kind and funny, and talented. Truly one of the best things that has ever happened to me since I’ve joined this fandom.  I made this blog back in mid December in 2018. Just to post about my ocs at first, then I started to occasionally post of my silly headcanons and ideas, posted a few stories. (idk why but i have a backlog of just Micah requests im still working on lmao ilu guys, ty for being patient <3). We’ve all had our ups and downs, but it’s been an amazing journey to be apart of this fandom and I’m so grateful to every single follower, every single reblog. I read your tags and comments every time, and y’all make me smile and laugh. <3 I’m definitely going to try and post more in the future. Hopefully life wont get as busy as it has been since November but I’ll try. Expect more shitposts, maybe some edits and fanart. Expect more on my ocs or lil updates from the dicord rp haha. Literature requests are closed due to my backlog lol but headcanons and just general asks are open. :) 

So yeah, thank you all for following me, you’ve brought so much joy in my life and I hope I can contribute a smile or two in yours as well. Here’s to a another year of cowboys!

▹ ☆ ☆ ☆  Quiescentgale’s 200+ follower milestone follow forever  ☆ ☆ ☆ ◃

✭ I just wanted to say Wow, thank you everyone who supported me upon this blog. I only made this blog just a little over two months old, (08/07/2017) and I’ve already reached this far, and I feel so loved and welcome. ;v; I could cry in happiness for this moral boost, because I always have a small fear, perhaps I am not doing Ventus any justice.  And I very much insecure if I could get this muse down, as he is traditionally not someone whom I usually RP as. Until my best friend nudged me, (even if he left me hanging high and dry xD). More encouragement from  several good friends, including my best friend who continues to support me to play Ventus how I am comfortable with him. For this Thank you everyone.

  ✭ I also apologize if I have made a lot of people uncomfortable with me, humoring with Anons, or being... such a dork, a chatter box who can’t seemed to have a mute button.. or maybe the way I played Ventus not subtle enough we don’t click, but he’s too bright and vibrant. I’ve come to a resolution that, this is my interpretation of Ventus, a bright, innocent, curious and energetic boy, who often hides behind a smile, put others in front of him. A pacifist who is mischief and playful, give hugs for everyone and wants to be their friends. For this, I wanted to make an appreciation for those who followed and supported me from the beginning, because of you guys, I’ve made it this far. But... but... I STILL QUESTIONED! Why are you following me?!  i’m just your dork extraordinaire.

This post is going to be long ;v;. Please bear with me.

Banter credited to @lunastusx but I probably destroyed it with my hideous edit in text LOL.

   ▹ ☆ ☆ ☆  Special appreciation to my dearest who continues to support me throughout from the very beginning and still. I wouldn’t be here without you.  ☆ ☆ ☆ ◃

@akuserru - I know we had some differences or somehow we’re plain opposite in personality, but I wanted to thank you for putting up with me. You broaden my world for AU KH, and inspired me through out our RP. You helped me to develop my Ventus, and I love to always making threads with you, especially when I look up to you and your writings. I wanted to draw out a lot of motivation from you. You’re the handful of individuals who I continues valued and looked up to, especially the well thought out and in depth your AU Axel had come from. Not everything is black and White, the grey that tells most of the story <3.

@brokenkxy - our muses may clash a bit, angst and drama everywhere like a bad case of a cold, but I love everyone bits of it. The moment we talked and gotten to know as muns, everything went down perfectly. Your Roxas is brilliant, and I enjoyed each time yours and mine clash. You’re a sweetie as your muse <3.

@hxartsmith - You’re the few Sora blog who tolerates my existence xD, no lie. I don’t know how you can put up with me, but I love having a bromance with your Sora and my Ven, and how Ven is picking on yours and get his just dessert lmao. You’ve stuck with me since the beginning, and I wanted to say, thank you <3.

@lunastusx - Karei, you’ve been there for me since my Lass blog and here you are, on along with my Ven too. Even if you’re busy with doing things that isn’t on tumblr or discord, I always enjoyed our interactions, our chat, heck even our VaniVen <3 and I love your edits, they are brilliant. Thank you for being there along the ride. thank you for being of the most first amazing Vanitas I’ve interact with.

@bite-x-the-x-bullet - You giant ass, you left me high and dry, so I’m gonna drag yo ass here in this mention xD. Because one, you’re my best friend and baby bro~ and two, you nudge me into this fandom, now I found new will to live >D, that doesn’t mean I forgive you for ditching me. >T regardless I should thank you for your encouragement and giving me confident, ilu <3.

@the-tender-princess - lil sis you know I have to mention you in this <3, I really enjoyed Yuuki and Ven being dorks and fighting with ice cream lmao. That stuff made my day! Please continue to bother him, whilst he can invade your inbox and spams Yuuki full of love xD;;. You oughta get on me yo, you’re  making me lonely.

@vcidgear - You’re one of the best person I could RP with in Au setting, be it on threading here on tumblr or discord. I love your Vanitas, he’s both cocky and protective, and court to the point it’s painfully flat cold teasing xD. You’re a lovely mun and I love talking to you and be braining ideas or just  generally talking. So thank you for sticking by me since day one <3.

@thebetterhalfofwind - You, you you awesome person. Your Vanitas is so amazing, and I just love you, your portray of him was spot on, especially the innocent part. You’re the few rare Vanitas who isn’t bad boy type, but retain what he is, how he was made from pure darkness that has nothing else to lose or experience anything but pain. I was so pleasantly surprised you followed me back and I love each of our threads, regardless if it’s x amount of numbers <3. Thank you, thank you so much for interacting me with me from the very beginning.

@oblivion-witch - You’ve stuck around with me since the beginning, the first me to crush me with massive wall of texts, the one who made me loved Naminé and Ventus as a ship whether it is platonic or romantic. Our thread gives me feels, fluffy and exploring more into Ven’s mind. I feel inadequate if I didn’t give you a quality reply and it often taken me longer to reply back... or gets buried underneath all others xD. But it gets funnier as it goes on... Nami getting that mischief side, it’s like... discovering new things all over again. Vee, thank you for sticking by me.

@vxstexrth - you’re a wonderful Terra, even though you are busy, I enjoyed our threads, and how much of a dork our Terra and Ven are. Thank you for tolerating me, even if I’m an annoying bundle of hyperness. Expect me to pester you more when you get back.

@zakkusurifea​ - You’ve been with me since the very beginning, and I love your Zack and often I feel comfortable with us mesing around and having fun. Zack and Ven food fighting was my favorite. Your support really lighten my spirit, so thank you so much for sticking with me this long. I hope we continue to support each other <3.

@corruptedkey / @verdantwind​​ - Soap you are the most wonderful friend, if my best friend position wasn’t already taken I would have happily given you this spot. Instead, I’d like to call you my closest confidant ;v;. Your writing blows me away, your perspective is very much spot on and each time we write a thread, I always look at my notification if I’ve receive your reply. I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with you and our muses interaction.

@notturnomelodico​ - You’re such a lovely mun ;v;, each time we talked in IM, it always makes me giggled a bit and lighten up my mood. I especially love our muses dynamic, even if it’s a little odd and out of places. And I’m slow as heck, I love to threading with you and look  forward to your reply... even if I’m a slow as a snail oTL. Thank you for your support <3.

@animustenebrae​ -  You crazy mun and muse lmao. Your art is just beautiful and visually chilling. I love what you’ve done to Venitas stark contrast to Heartless version of himself. I can’t help but grin each time there’s interaction between them or us casually talking. I swear you’re just pure crack xD.

@brave-puppy​ - As you made your Zack, in a way you also helped to support my Ven blog with your kind words. Sometimes we thread and ask like heck and sometimes we don’t. I enjoy seeing your Zack on my dash. Especially his reaction when Ven does something silly xD. Your tag when you reblog my promo, made me happy <3, so I’d like to thank you. Thank you~

@dorkprinceoflucis - aaaaaaahhh, yoooou! I really, really enjoy talking with you on IMs, it was funny and hilarious. Your Noctis is adorable, and when we discuss out the plot or plans for them, I couldn’t help but be a giggling dork. They are perfectly cute bundle of fluffy dorks. I really looked forward to your replies and see our muses development >3.

@gnectics / @dethiux​ - I cannot even put to words how detailed and mind boggling brilliant your posts are. I always, always checked my dash if I get your replies. You’re the few who allowed my mind to explore outside the box, your AU crashing with my Divergent verse was just mind blowing. THANK YOU so much for allowing me to open more possibilities. I know there’s a limit what a person can do, or there’s a limit how far you can do with our muses, please be patient with me and i promise you stories, drama, angst even comical relief. I thoroughly wanted our muses to develop as the story unraveled. Talking with you was a delight and I’d love to casually interact as a mun to mun or as muse to muse. You’re a lovely person and a great writer! Don’t forget that <3.

[starspatter]

TimSteph & *inhales* 1, 3, 6, 7, 9, 11, 17, 19, 20, 25, 26, 27 aaand 29

ilu thank you for asking Again, this is DCAU only (i.e. for Timmy Todd).  Spoilered for length.

1. Who is the most affectionate?Stephanie, since Tim still has an ingrained fear of physical contact/intimacy.  While he rarely initiates, he feels comfortable enough around her that he appreciates the constant cuddling.3. Most common argument?Anytime one keep secrets from the other, and over the safety of their kids/how much freedom they should have, since Tim tends to be really strict + (understandably) overprotective with them.

6. What is their favorite feature of their partner’s?Gonna borrow a canon quote from the mainstream comics (Batman 12-Cent Adventure) and say for Steph it’s “his warm, shy laugh” (especially since it’s rare for Timmy Todd) and “clean-smelling hair”.  I imagine the same holds true in reverse for Tim, since Steph’s million-watt smile and fluffy hair are my favorite things about her. ;P *shot* (Normally I’m not one for bubbly blondes, but goshdurnit she’s just too cute. 7. What’s the first thing that changes when they realize they have feelings for the other?

Ahh Steph’s cheerful energy is totally infectious so the more time Tim spends around her the more he starts to smile/crack jokes again.  I pretty much picture her enthusiastically dragging him around to social events to have fun instead of staying cooped up in his room all the time with his computer (much like Ayano and Shintaro with the Culture Festival, although Tim is much more receptive/respectful towards her).

9. Who worries the most?

Tim, definitely.  The anxiety and paranoia never does fully go away, and it often takes a lot of patient coaxing and consoling from Steph to calm him down from a panic attack.11. Who tops?

asdlkfjdl Steph would (at least at first to teach Timmy the Boy Virgin *shot*)17. Who says I love you first?Stephanie.  It takes a long time before Tim can say it aloud without being embarrassed.19. Who tells their family/friends about their relationship first?Stephanie totally boasts about their relationship the first chance she gets lol.  Tim is much more reserved about it, although everyone could already tell he liked her anyway (Dick and Barb totally tease him relentlessly about it).  …Although no one bothers to directly contact Bruce until the wedding (Tim does send him an invitation, but ofc he doesn’t respond), he still keeps tabs on his son’s affairs from afar, in his secretive Batdad way.20. What do their family/friends think of their relationship?Dick and Barbara are obviously happy for their little bro finding someone who can help him to smile and be more outgoing again.  (Dick might actually secretly be a bit jealous, since watching the two together reminds him a lot of when he and Barbara used to date.)  Stephanie’s mom also approves of Tim, since he’s smart and polite and seems like a “very nice boy” (a marked improvement over other guys her daughter has dated in the past) - even if he seemingly has some… “difficulties” (although she might be able to sympathize with him/offer assistance and advice based on her own experiences battling depression and drug addiction).  He looks to her like the loving mother he never had growing up, although he’s extremely nervous about her finding out his past.  (Eventually they do tell her the truth, and she hugs and dotingly spoils him even more as her own son.)25. Who needs more assurance?Tim, although Stephanie has a tendency to get jealous.  (Actually her first assumption when he started working longer nights and making strange/suspicious phone calls in RotJ was that he might be having an affair. *shot*)26. What would be their theme song?Ahh I have so many at this point so Imma just gonna dump a bunch (well, the first few are basically ones I couldn’t fit into my fic somehow ^^; ):“Alive” by Adelitas Way“What if I told you that I think you’re perfect?Beautiful sky in your eyes, it’s so worth it.I know you make me feel alive.‘Cause you make meLaugh a little louder,Love a little harder.”“Science and Faith” by The Script“Tried to break love to a scienceIn an act of pure defianceI broke her heartOf all of the things that she’s ever saidShe goes and says something that just knocks me dead:You won’t find faith or hope down a telescopeYou won’t find heart and soul in the starsYou can break everything down to chemicalsBut you can’t explain a love like ours”“We’ll Be the Stars” by Sabrina Carpenter“We are young, we are goldTrying things we didn’t knowLooking at the sky, see it come aliveAll our fears became our hopesClimbed out every locked windowLet me in, hold me closeFill my heart with simple notesSo when it’s hard to see,They are there, reminding meTake my breath, and hold me highSo I can feel the city lightsGlowing under me”(This one might actually apply more to their comics counterparts, but let’s just say it’s a happy AU where they met as Robin and Spoiler and neither of them dies/gets tortured mmkay.)“Landslide” by Oh Wonder“I know it hurts sometimes butYou’ll get over itYou’ll find another life to liveI know you’ll get over itI know you’re sad and tiredYou’ve got nothing left to giveSo when you’re caught in a landslideI’ll be there for you, I’ll be there for youAnd in the rain, give you sunshineI’ll be there for you, I’ll be there for youAnd every time that you’re lonelyEvery time that you’re feeling low, you should knowI’ll be there for you, I’ll be there for youI know your hope is heavy butYou’ll get over itAnd I know you feel like everythingIs falling to the windBut don’t you let the thunder in”“Superheroes” by The Script“All her life she has seenAll the meaner side of meThey took away the prophet’s dreamFor a profit on the streetAll his life he’s been toldHe’ll be nothing when he’s oldAll the kicks and all the blowsHe won’t ever let it showShe’s got lions in her heart, a fire in her soulHe’s a got a beast in his belly that’s so hard to controlCause they’ve taken too much hits, taking blow by blowNow light a match, stand back, watch them explode” “Second Chances” by Gregory Alan Isakov”All of my heroes sit up straightThey stare at the groundThey radiateI’m running from nothing, no thoughts in my mindOh my heart was all black, but I saw something shineThought that part was yours, but it might just be mineI could share it with you, if you gave me the timeI’m all bloody knuckles, longing for homeIf it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be aloneI’m a shot through the dark, I’m a black sinkholeIf it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be alone”“Rush Together” by Quietdrive“They grew up in the same old townNever knowing the other was aroundRead from the same damn booksNever gave each other looksBut one day the sun will shineI know, for their eyes have told me soChasing advice from those who say ‘I’ve lost my mind’Rush together to find each otherNow it’s too late, you can never wait for luckForever bound by the same instrumentWe all adhereThat’s guilt”“Start the Machine” by Angels and Airwaves“I grew so close to all the thoughts I had to leave forever I left the chill and voice of screams and kids and ran for shelterThe pain has a bad reaction A blend of fear and passionYou know what it’s like to believeIt makes me wanna screamI see the stars, they’re in your eyesA playful kiss, can you tell I’m excited?A fast escape in the nick of timeIf you lost your wish, can I help you find it?I’m on my knee, just one to startA fresh new start, don’t be undecided”(Bit of a starry theme here, eh? XP I feel it works for them, whether they’re nighttime vigilantes or not.)“Heroes and Thieves” by Vanessa Carlton“Well, disaster it strikes on a daily basisI’m looking for wisdom in all the wrong placesBut still want to laugh in disappointed facesHeroes and thieves at my doorI can’t seem to tell them apart anymoreJust when I’ve figured it outWell darlin’ it’s you I’m withoutWell I’m stubborn and wrongBut at least I know itKeep moving along until I can get through thisBut maybe this song is the best I can do itWell, it seems like I’m getting closer somehowA flicker of peace that I’ve finally foundThank you for believing in me now‘Cause I do need it” “Come to Me” by Goo Goo Dolls“I’ll be kind, if you’ll be faithful You be sweet and I’ll be grateful Cover me with kisses dear Lighten up the atmosphereCome to me with secrets bare I’ll love you more so don’t be scaredI caught you burnin’ photographs Like that could save you from your past History is like gravity It holds you down away from me You and me, we’ve both got sins I don’t care about where you’ve been Don’t be sad and don’t explain This is where we start again”(This is so cheesy but the couple in the video resembles these two so much it makes me want to cry.  Even the lyrics video has some striking parallels to my upcoming fic, which I swear was just a coincidence.)“Diary” by Ken Kamikita“I forget all painful things, those blue words spilling out, the end of a distant spring The city in sunset, as if oblivious of the crimes committed today, rings out sounds of the bell signalling the end.Back alleys, laughing voices, at the other side of the window, sight of a happy familyMy heart ached as I looked up, the first star was shining brightlyThe moment I realized, there was nothing left, I spent today in regrets and threw everything away, What’s left behind, all the time, is the me, unable to changeI recoil from love, the wind still blew, throughout the city I left behind, the end of a hot summer Burdens piling up, memories of the days we could laugh together, I desert them all and begin walking Even though I can’t see what’s ahead, even though you’re not thereI take a detour, a swing in the park, water garden, vanishing lives Citizen hall, piano sounds, you flashed a fleeting smile As I laugh, ‘since it’s you, everything’s going to be fine’”(Translated lyrics from here.)”A Page Is Turned” by Bebo Norman”A page is turned by the wind to a boy in curly grin With a world to conquer at the age of ten But as history unfolds and the storybook is told He finds salvation but not at the hands of manThe God of second chance Will pick them up and he’ll let them dance Through a world that is not kind And all this time, they’re sharing with the one That holds them up when they come undone Beneath the storm, beneath the sun And once again, here you standYour day has come” 27. Who would sing to their child back to sleep?Stephanie, being the more musically inclined of the two thanks to her piano lessons.  Tim might join in if he’s feeling particularly at ease though (however his real specialty is telling the kids bedtime stories, based on his Adventures as Robin).  I can actually picture them singing the “Dango Daikazoku” song together.  (Incidentally, I have a headcanon of Ayano singing the song to the Meka Trio, since she and Nagisa share the same voice actress. ;O)

29. One headcanon about this OTP that breaks your heartSteph blames herself for not noticing her husband was being possessed by the Joker (although she sensed something was clearly off), and wasn’t able to prevent RotJ from happening.  Tim of course feels even more guilty about it, but she helps keep him from falling too deep into despair by still accepting him despite it all.
