#ily gin💕

[heartbreak-sandwich]

Lol silly request here so only if you want to but since you couldn't decorate I was wondering if you would like to write a short blurb of Billy and Steve decorating together. Maybe Steve sneaking out the mistletoe to lure Billy into a kiss. (Not that he would need to be lured in at all lol) only if you think you'd like to write this though!! No worries if not! 💙

This is GREAT, and I'm so in the mood for holiday fic themes, thank you sm Gin!!!💕

OKAY SO HERE'S MY LITTLE IMAGINE because this is too cute💕

They had almost finished decorating Hopper's cabin in the effort to get him into the holiday spirit. Since Hopper had been working longer shifts, they knew he wouldn't have the time, and they wanted El to have a magical Christmas this year after everything she had endured. They couldn't wait to surprise them both.

Billy stepped back from the golden-lit tree and studied the position of the star on top. He crinkled his brows and went back to adjusting it one more time while Steve huffed and puffed by the front door, clearly struggling with some greenery he was trying to hang along the doorframe.

"A little help here?" Steve finally griped. Billy smirked and approached Steve, but still made no effort to help him.

"What's the matter? Can't reach?" Billy's smirk bloomed into a bright smile as Steve looked over his shoulder and rolled his eyes.

"I know what you want me to say, and you can forget it," Steve mumbled as he continued to struggle with the decor. Billy just crossed his arms and looked on while Steve tiptoed to try and get a better reach.

"You know what? Fine," Steve conceded. "You're taller than me, so could you please help me finish hanging this?" Billy chuckled and held up the greenery along the door frame so Steve could secure it with some pushpins. Billy knew he wasn't taller than Steve, but he liked to egg him on to say it anyway.

The both stepped back from the door, surveying the position of the...mistletoe?

Billy turned to Steve who was already looking at him with dreamy eyes and a face that had "got ya" written all over it.

"Like always," Billy drawled, stepping closer to Steve, circling an arm around his waist and pulling him close. "You've got me right where you want me, Harrington."

Steve grinned, very satisfied with himself, before leaning in, one hand lightly tousling into Billy's curls as he kissed him -- slow, sweet, and magical, just like it was supposed to be. Their warmth filled the small room as they basked in the glow of the holiday lights, relishing in slow motion kisses until Billy had something to say.

"You know, since we seem to be done here," he started, locking eyes with Steve and raising his eyebrows suggestively. "Why don't we move on to some...more rigorous extracurriculars?"

Steve laughed and rested his forehead on Billy's. "I thought you'd never ask," he replied, a mischievous gleam in his eye. I hope this is okay!!! I tried to make it kind of short and sweet, and I love the playful dynamic of them kind of picking on each other in good fun lol. Thank you so much for requesting this!! 💕

🍪 If you were a cookie, what kind would you be?

🐸 Describe your aesthetic.

Hi Gin!! 🥰🥰 I hope you're doing well, thank you for dropping in! 💖

🍪 If you were a cookie, what kind would you be? This is a popular question lol 😅 I'm going with snickerdoodle today.

🐸 Describe your aesthetic. This is hard because I feel like it's pretty fluid and changes by the day, but it's almost always heavily 80's-inspired. ^^

[zukkaoru]

OKAY UMMMM this is hard bc I know most of this. imma give you a couple:

ezekiel jones bc silly guy & uhhhh chuuya or gin, ig you haven’t done them bc i literally CALLED that you’d love them!!!

also did you know that. um. ily~

hi beloved ily 🥰💕 starting with gin bc. fave 💓💓💓

first impression:

"wait 'he'? i didn't think corey said they were a boy??" and then i think i proceeded to actually pause the episode and check bsd wiki to make sure i had the right character and correctly remembered what you told me about them

impression now:

i need to see them again Right Now. please asagiri bring them back i need to see them i need to know they're okay i need them to reunite with akutagawa and i need to see what happens between them and tachi and and adn

favorite moment:

all of them <3 uhh real answer is i really love the omake where they're going around asking for advice about how to help akutagawa deal with his stress in a healthy way now that he can't kill people

idea for a story:

sometimes i think about a tachigin bodyswap au.. post-doa arc so gin has to deal with tachi's limited vision while tachi is suddenly faced with the brunt of gin's body dysphoria. gin hates hearing their voice but tachi doesn't actually mind it and he won't shut up. gin doesn't mind talking either now though bc their voice just sounds like tachihara's. and they don't actually mind being in his body either. but also having to watch their body from the outside is weird and awful. they have to call akutagawa to pick them up and take them to the agency so dazai can switch them back. akutagawa seems to hate the switch even more than gin and tachihara do.

unpopular opinion:

they're the best character in bsd.

favorite relationship:

any flavor of tachigin and also the akutagawa siblings!!! i want to see more of them in canon asagiri please also i'm kind of really intrigued by their dynamic with dazai,, like we don't really see much interaction between them in canon but i like how i picture their dynamic in my mind bc gin has a lot of complicated feelings towards him and i'm not sure dazai really even realizes that, or at least he doesn't realize the full extent of it

favorite headcanon:

transmasc gin!!!

chuuya:

first impression:

"he's the geto of bungou stray dogs"

impression now:

for someone who has literally the most fans out of all the bsd characters, there are surprisingly few people who even remotely understand them😐

favorite moment:

basic but probably when he comes to save the ada in the helicopter. or the scene in dead apple when he goes to fight the dragon and ango is like "dude dazai's probably dead. you're going to die if you use corruption." and chuuya's like LOL dazai??? dead????? trust me i'd know if that waste of bandages finally kicked the bucket. now stop talking i have a dragon to beat up

idea for a story:

i think i told you about this but a kunichuu 5+1 that's just chuuya not being able to shut up about kunikida when talking to literally everyone at the port mafia. they're spending a half hour talking about kuni during an executive meeting and they aren't even dating him yet. how is this somehow worse than teenage dazai and chuuya, mori wonders. at least it isn't dazai, kouyou argues, blissfully unaware that dazai will end up being part of the relationship too.

unpopular opinion:

i don't like transmasc chuuya. it won't turn me off a fic completely but chuuya is one of those characters like cherry and zuko who gets softened and uwu-ified and oftentimes, this is just made even worse when they're written as trans. which is. a problem across fandoms in general obviously since cherry and zuko get the same treatment. also this shouldn't be unpopular but chuuya didn't spend like eight months crying himself to sleep after dazai left. hello??? do you even hear yourself??? i'm not a big fan of femchuuya either and in fact like that less than femdazai. nor am i particularly into ada chuuya, mostly because people soften their character way too much when they write ada chuuya. i want my chuuya still recognizable as chuuya!!! alas most people can't even get chuuya's characterization right regardless of any au or gender headcanons. anyway i'm sure i have a bunch more but i'll stop here

favorite relationship:

have you heard of kunichuu. or kunichuuzai even. it's not as if we have spoken about this at length multiple times or anything

favorite headcanon:

nonbinary chuuya!!!!!

--

ezekiel:

first impression:

i first watched the librarians in 2015 i do NOT remember that

impression now:

i miss him :(

favorite moment:

in the apple of discord episode where he snatches the apple but nothing happens bc he's "already the worst version of himself". i don't think we talk enough about the implications of that!!! the others immediately went for murder but ezekiel's "worst version" of himself is?? a thief who's kinda lazy but still clearly cares about everyone around him?? do you understand how insane that is!!!!!!

idea for a story:

once a very long time ago (in high school) i started writing an arospec ezekiel fic. i didn't get very far and i'm sure whatever i had written was bad but it was such a good idea

unpopular opinion:

i don't think there were any popular ezekiel opinions i heavily disagreed with?? best i can think of is that i like caszekiel better than jassandra

favorite relationship:

jazekiel realness..... and i do enjoy caszekiel too

favorite headcanon:

demiromantic/demisexual ezekiel!! it's canon TO ME

thank you for the mention gin ily 💕🥹

The Spreadsheet Digest - Fic Recs | Vol 6

Howdy friends! Happy Friday and happy Fic Rec Day!

Here's everything I read this week and my silly little thoughts about them.

As always you can find The Spreadsheet here

Recs below the cut :)

June - a Joel WIP by @atinylittlepain

-> The writing in this is just... absolutely beautiful. I love the story that's being set up here and I love the way it's being told. This is definitely one to keep an eye on. Fell in love immediately. Warning, though, this one is probably gonna hurt a little.

Heat - an Ezra one shot by @dreamsofmandalore

This fic had me in javi p, smoking a cigarette, hand pressed into forehead era. It was hot. Ezra talking dirty is just... top fucking tier man.

PMAMC 2023 - (almost) all the boys got pegged and I made a masterlist! Fics by @wannab-urs, @jksprincess10, @beskarandblasters, @cutesyscreenname, @serenaxpedro, and @atinylittlepain

-> All the major boys except Marcus Pike (coming soon), Dave York (coming soon), and Jack Daniels (unclaimed) get the rides of their lives! We pegged all of them... so if that's your thing, click the link for enough to keep you fed for weeks

Catalyst - a Joel/Frankie one shot @ezrasbirdie

-> I think I'm in my "I want two guys to rail me while also being into each other" era, but anyway... this was so fucking hot. I loved all the little details and story bits in there. Made it feel like a believable situation, which is not alway the case with Pedro boy on Pedro Boy action lol.

Kyoto - a Joel one shot (part of Punisher) by @beskarandblasters

-> I'm loving these Punisher fics, but as someone with daddy issues AND super toxic exes, this is the one.

Shots - a Jack WIP by @julesonrecord

-> Uh... oh my god??? I love the rewrite of the ending (I like when authors keep Whiskey's actions but change that terrible ending ugh). I am so fucking into the plot of this story. I am riveted. I cannot wait for more. What is he doing? What's gonna happen? AH. Oh and it wouldn't be a certified Gin Fic Rec if I didn't tell you that the smut is delicious. Riding that line between explicit description and fucking poetry. You really uh... feel it... you know?

Hokaanir Riduurok - a Din one shot by @proxima-writes

-> Din with tattoos... shirtless,,, marrying you... then fucking while totally blissed out on some crazy mando wine... If I need to say more there's something wrong with you. This is everything.

put your lips close to mine a Joel one shot by @swiftispunk

-> A gorgeous follow up to her other masseuse!reader x Joel fic. I think I could read about Pedro boys getting or giving massages forever. It will literally never get old. All the luscious fuckin descriptions of his body.... PLEASE. And who doesn't love a happy ending?

buried - a Jack series by @something-tofightfor

I love this story so much I think I could recite it from memory. Jack is literal perfection in every way in this. I love a sad broken man who slowly learns to love again YESSSSS. The plot? immaculate. The smut? worth the god damn wait.

Speechless - an Ezra one shot by @sneetsnootyoit

-> Someone finally learned how to shut Ezra up... all it took was a good dickin down lmao. (AMAB Reader, sorry if you didn't get into fandom through a gay ship like me and this isn't your thing).

On your back a Joel one shot by @toxicanonymity

Personal trainer!Joel is so hot... and so fucking creepy. Like explain to me why I'm less creeped out by NW!Joel... actually don't, I don't wanna know what that says about me. Anyway this is fucking fantastic. As always, friends, heed the warnings at the top. They are not an exaggeration.

------------ things i read months ago and never recced -------------

Grays - a Frankie series by @fuckyeahdindjarin

cool girl - a Dieter series by @ezrasbirdie

Possession - a Din one shot @prolix-yuy

Funny Girl - a Dieter series by @radiowallet

Sin Without Limits a Javi P one shot by @jake-g-lockley

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Happy reading, dear friends <3

[kingeomer]

Ask game ask game; ⚡🍺✨ ily!

🥰 ily too lou 💕💕

⚡️ever had a Greek mythology phase? - lmao yeah idk if I’d call it a “phase” as such but yeah, it’s always been a bit of an interest of mine.

🍺favourite drink? - I actually really like water ownskenfn but also sprite, and I drank at least one can of Diet Coke every day for like 15 years 😅 I’m not a big alcohol drinker but if I had to pick an alcoholic drink I’d probably choose this rhubarb and ginger gin (with not American lemonade) that a coworker introduced me to.

✨favourite aesthetic? - I don’t really think I have one but let’s say either emo or punk just to be safe. I’m also quite into pastels lately, as well??

[heartbreak-sandwich]

🥀 - Favourite animated movie?

😱 - What’s your biggest fear?

🥵 - Would you rather be too hot or too cold?

thank you for sending these, ily!!! 🥰🥰 Send me asks from this list!!💕

My favorite animated movie is Finding Nemo 🥰

Biggest fear? Probably being completely alone/people misunderstanding me to the point of contempt. :c

I would rather be too cold because it's easier to find ways to warm up 🥶

[saturnsorbits]

Fucking Hell, Jo!

I am obsessed with these little angst anti-match ups! This was so fucking good! And so true too 😫

The way I hadn't even thought of this: but you're so right! Denki would 100% get caught up in the excitement of having someone on his arm and forget about how introverted I am.

I can see the arguments…. The ‘I just want to show you off - what's so wrong with that?' that eventually twists into: ‘So; you don't want to be seen with me. Is that it? I fucking embarrass you; or what?' And I'm pleading; fucking crying trying to get him to see it's got fuck all to do with him and the insecurities that have his hackles up; but he's not hearing it.

He storms out; feeling like our relationship is a lie and I wake up alone the next day... And the next. And the next…

Honestly I don’t think he comes home for a while. The papers still printing stories - gossip spreads. We were seen everywhere together and then… Nothing. Of course, the suspect we’ve broken up and there’s no shortage of reasons why: Kaminari has cheated with fellow hero Jirou, claims one magazine. Another suggests it was me; that I was using him for fame. There’s even the odd talk of a rejected proposal.

None of them are even remotely close to the truth.

But; as I sit in a house that still smells a little too much like him. I can’t help; but wish they were.

At least then, there would be a better reason for me sleeping alone.

… The Sero one took me out! Imagine going from one to the other - the whiplash. The all or nothing. And the arguments go fucking nowhere because: ‘Why can’t you just be fucking happy, Saturn? Am I not enough for you?’ And it fucking hurts, tears me apart; bc I know my answer… And it’s not pretty.

☠︎ @saturnsorbits

Kaminari Denki.

Are you telling me Denki is the love of your life? Go on, tell me one more time— if you say it enough maybe you’ll actually start to believe it too. Yeah, he’s got great banter and he makes you laugh but is that really enough to keep your relationship going? It’s okay, you can be honest with me. He’s annoying isn’t he? He pulls you into situations that make you uncomfortable— he knows that you’re reserved and that you have a small social battery and yet he’s signed you up for a photoshoot and interview with Hero Weekly. I mean, it’s sweet he wants to do things with you and show you off, but at what cost? Yeah, yeah, we get it- Chargebolt has a girlfriend, but is that all you are to him? But he’ll give you those quiet nights in, cuddles in bed and constant love and affirmation… oh, and he makes you cum which is always a happy bonus, right? But is that enough for you? Yeah, yeah, I know. You love him. Anyway that party that you didn’t want to go to is coming up tonight, and it’s probably gonna lead to more of you being uncomfortable while your boyfriend is the center of attention… again. That doubts sitting at the back of your mind, I know it is! But I mean, he just found out where the clit is so maybe you can keep him around a little longer, but do you really want to? It’s okay, babes. I can get you Sero’s number after this, yeah?

Sero Hanta.

You’re such a cute couple it actually kinda makes me sick… you look perfect together and your personalities compliment each other nicely. It’s the way you write and send each other terrible, lovesick poetry and self-deprecating jokes only you two find funny… maybe you do belong together. Sero adores quiet nights in with you, and there is no man on this big, big planet that has a tongue as amazing as him. Have you ever cum so much in your life, be honest? But the doubts there, isn’t it? I can see it— it’s just stagnant? He’s content with his position in the hero rankings, content with his relationship with you, content with his life, and that’s just it… he’s content. He won’t propose, doesn’t want to talk about kids or the future, or even just moving in together. It’s like you’ve been going steady and you’ve just hit traffic, except the traffic never moves. That’s your biggest problem, Sero is content, and when he’s content nothing will change. You have dreams, aspirations… and it’s not even that he’s looking down at you, he’s wondering why you’re bothering because aren’t you content too? You’ve gotta tell him eventually that you’re not, and maybe that will be the jump he needs to change… but is that gonna be enough for you, babes? I mean, do you want a friend or a boyfriend, cause I promise there’s a difference. This relationship isn’t going anywhere, and I guess neither are either of you if you don’t break up with him? Denki’s not looking so bad anymore, eh?

Hi Gin!! 💕 Thank you sm for the ask, I hope you're doing well!! ^^

4. Do you like cooking or baking more? BAKING! I love to bake, especially bread. I also make a mean buttercream from scratch for topping my sweets, and I'm very proud of it lol. I wish I had more time to bake.

23. Do you prefer phone calls, facetime, or texting? I guess it depends. I'd probably say phone calls. I'm always afraid to be misunderstood or have my tone misread while texting 😅

Something I want to do again next year is write for an event - and actually complete the event lol. It's one of my goals. ^^

[rattkween86]

daydream; best memory?

rose; favorite flower?

thank you sm for sending these ^^ I love these questions 💕

daydream; best memory? Hmmm... this is a hard one. Right now, I'm going to go with the first time I ever ice skated. One year, the lake froze over at my dad's house (which doesn't happen often), and he dug a couple of old pairs of skates out of the shed, and one pair happened to fit each of us. He thought I would have to practice more, but skating came so naturally to me. We spent days in a row together ice skating and building snowmen on the lake, and it was the best time. 🥰

rose; favorite flower? I really like aster flowers! White and purple ones, usually. ^^

Send me an ask from this list

[heartbreak-sandwich]

13 for the Spotify ask game ! 💙

I'm so sorry this took me so long to answer!! I've been having some weird issues with Tumblr and my asks/posts, idk what's going on 😭Thank you sm for sending this!!

Send me a number 1-100 + a pairing and I will tell you what song it corresponds to on my Spotify wrapped AND give you a 5 sentence summary of a fic based on that song

Winter (Nocturne of Ice) by ConcernedApe

Steve is alone again for Christmas with his parents having a big holiday party to attend for his dad's firm. His heart sinks as he firmly plants his ladder in the snow, the string of lights feeling extra heavy in his arms. The fight Billy had with Neil had been a bad one, and he opted for a walk instead of a drive to clear his head when he heard grunts and curses coming from the side of a house on his path. Approaching a tall figure atop a ladder, he noticed Steve struggling to hang a string of lights by himself in the dark of the early winter evening. Steve is surprised when Billy offers to help him and accepts the help because even spending time with that asshole is better than being alone on Christmas...and maybe he's not such an asshole after all.

(A little sad-starting Harringrove holiday cheer-up moment just for u 💕)
