#in a rly expensive and beautiful dress

[tahuxian]

dance, sender sticks a hand out to receiver and invites them to dance. ( aoandon and yukong 🕴️🕴️🕴️🕴️🕴️ )

it  isn't  often  that  yukong  allows  herself  the  time  to  have  fun  anymore  ,  oftentimes  buried  beneath  mountains  of  work  all  whilst  keeping  the  sky  fairing  commission  afloat  and  free  of  problems  .  in  truth  ,  the  hefty  workload  was  used  by  her  as  a  way  to  escape  her  ever  lingering  sadness  .  to  avoid  pondering  on  memories  that  still  plagued  her  whenever  she'd  close  her  eyes  .  it  was  no  secret  that  yukong  still  carried  with  her  a  great  unresolved  pain  ,  but  lately  …  that  pain  was  made  into  more  of  a  dull  ache  ever  since  aoandon  had  come  into  her  life  .  the  past  was  not  forgotten  ,  but  it  was  made  easier  now  that  she  had  somebody  to  offer  her  something  as  simple  as  reassurance  . 

that's  why  ,  presently  yukong  finds  herself  more  able  to  experience  life  as  she  always  should  have  —  even  having  been  convinced  to  attend  a  small  ball  .  when  she  entered  the  room  ,  arms  linked  together  with  aoandon  ,  almost  everybody  took  a  moment  to  marvel  at  the  helm  master  ,  both  in  awe  and  shock  at  the  sight  of  yukong  donning  an  elegant  silken  qipao  of  midnight  blue  and  flickers  of  gold  .  it's  funny  ,  how  such  a  simple  outing  felt  as  if  it  had  shaved  a  hundred  years  off  her  age  .  heaving  a  short  sigh  ,  yukong  clung  tightly  to  her  company's  arm  …  mildly  anxious  about  the  stares  ,  but  that  all  started  to  fizzle  out  once  the  crowd  went  back  to  their  drinks  and  idle  chatter  . 

slit  lavender  gaze  crossed  the  room  ,  watching  those  who  danced  in  the  very  centre  of  the  hall  with  a  keen  interest  .  how  long  had  it  been  since  the  last  time  she  danced  ?  the  image  stirred  within  her  a  fondness  long  forgotten  ,  prompting  her  to  stop  in  her  tracks  so  that  she  could  continue  to  watch  the  pairs  of  people  moving  together  in  sync  .  caught  up  entirely  in  her  spectating  ,  yukong  was  disturbed  only  when  she  felt  a  gentle  nudge  at  her  shoulder  .               “            i'm  sorry  ,  don't  mind  me  …  i  was  just  enjoying  how  well  they  —             ”               her  sentence  was  cut  off  as  attention  fell  to  an  offered  hand  ,  an  invitation  as  aoandon  finished  the  sentence  for  her  .               “            dance  ?            ”

with  a  gently  stifled  laugh  ,  yukong's  fingers  laid  against  the  other's  palm  in  acceptance  ,  gesturing  with  her  free  hand  for  the  other  to  lead  the  way  .

dating him | hwang hyunjin

❝ i’ve never seen anything quite like you, my love ❞

chan | lee know | changbin | HYUNJIN | han | felix | seungmin | jeongin

hopeless romantic hwang hyunjin

love is beautiful and brilliant hwang hyunjin

yall cannot convince me that he isn’t the BIGGEST lover

romance is in his blood

he is so fascinated by it

so, for that reason, i feel like dating him would be like the love you read about or watch in movies

bc hyunjin would b the type to consume so much of romantic media

it’s where he learned everything from

wow what a dream

he strikes me as the type to fall in love with every little thing too

his eyes is just a lens of romance

and it’s set on YOU

every single love language he has it .. but here are some specifics

love language #1 gift giving

hyunjin is a traveler okay

and in every trip, he always has something to give you

keychains, t-shirts, bags, jewelry, stickers, refrigerator magnets, pins, you name it

even u have to remind him not to go all out sometimes

bc when that boy splurges, he SPENDS

esp for u ? he would spoil u in a heartbeat

he always makes sure he leaves a day of his travels dedicated to u and thinking about u

on that note, he tends to buy u guys matching items

matching phone cases, matching rings, matching scrunchie

whatever u can get that’s matching

he WILL get it

it excites him too

he loves being able to tell the world how in love he is

wait side note

whenever he’s traveling, he’s always just instinctively thinking about you

he buys this bagel for breakfast, oh ???? like hey guys yn loves bagels too

and the boys r like WE KNOWWWW 😭

everything is about u quite literally

ok continuing on

and he gifts u his art too

his art is very important to him

and he has found lately, u are the one person littering his sketch books

oh he’s down bad

i think for ur anniversary, he’d paint the constellations of how the stars looked that night and aligned perfectly

or his favorite picture of you

down bad that he also buys u a shit ton of dresses

and lingerie ………….

look he knows his fashion

he knows what looks great

u can’t blame him for buying what he knows will look so pretty on you

(he’d probably give u his card one time and say “go crazy” like wow he’s packed)

#2 quality time

i think his favorite dates would also be expensive

he just can’t help himself

BUT u know he has a sweet spot for self care dates too

spa days are very important to him

loves being able to relax and unwind with u

he especially loves when u play with his hair and when u paint his nails

one time, u caught him stealing one of your nail polishes

would also be the type to bring some bit of you in his travels

like ur perfume or ur shampoo

anything that’ll remind him of u

tho ur scent is his favorite

hence why he goes for perfumes or soap or shampoos bc u feel closer to him this way

he just loves being with u even if both of u are doing nothing

just like that bruno major song

conversations where u lose track of time

conversations as in talking shit about the people you hate together

😭😭😭😭

i think he’d want to paint with u

he’d be so shy to ask you too

just simple things

that cute date idea where you swap paintings every 5 mins or something

when u showed him that tiktok, he jumped in excitement

he wanted to do it right away

he prepares everything

he has both ur paintings framed in his room

it’s his most prized posession

oh, and he always invites u to game nights with the boys

he is SO competitive at monopoly

he couldn’t give two shits about other games

u don’t know why he gets so worked up with monopoly

“SEUNGMIN DONT DO IT SEUNGMIN!!!!”

it’s actually rly funny

he would be the type to take revenge

“you’re gonna regret buying a house there”

would cheer if his friends go to jail in the game or if they go bankrupt

doesn’t even try to hide it

and if he’s playing as the banker, he’d slip in extra bills for you

#3 words of affirmation

tho usually said when he thinks u’re asleep

he’s thankful that u take care of him when he forgets to

esp when he’s so immersed in his art

he whispers words of love

like poets and authors in books

he is just so full of love i can’t say it enough

physical touch except instead of touch, he loves kissing you

LIPS AND NECK ESPECIALLY

those are his top 2

he uses tongue 😕 sorry to break it to u

and he also leaves hickeys

so don’t run out of concealer okay!!!!!!! bc he tends to leave like a lot

before i end

here r some more dates he loves

botanical gardens

he’d pick a flower and place it behind your ear

now it’s his lockscreen

sunday markets

he loves the domesticity of shopping together

he buys u lots of flowers

every single type

u think he’s given u all types already

there is never a day where ur apartment doesn’t have flowers in a vase

bc as soon as the first sign of death arrives, he’s off to buy u new ones

he strikes me as the type to also go all out for valentines

hyunjin would send u mounts of chocolates and flowers

take u out to the fanciest date

u get to try new food and cuisines bc of him!

might even buy plane tickets so u two could travel together

maaaaaaaan just treasure everything

a love like hyunjin’s is hard to come by

note. credits to user @.luvknow for the layout of this post! let me know what you think! please discuss these with me i’m crazy

my favorite looks from the victoria's secret fashion show 2024⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🐈‍⬛🎀

PINK CARPET LOOKS ; 

jordyn woods - she looks so stunning. im in love with her black lacy number and the matching black bra underneath. plus the shimmering diamonds around her neck and on her ears. her updo is so elegant but also effortless. she looks so grown and expensive and lovely. her red nails and rings add to that also, she just looks incredible. i wish that she maybe went for a different shoe but altogether the look is lovely.

xandra pohl - i love the bouncy blowout, the pink glitter, and her makeup EATS. and i love her baby pink number i think it suits her beautifully. i feel like she could've definitely accessorized a bit more because the outfit gives empty a little bit. shes on the list cuz i love the color of her outfit but i feel like some kitten heels would've made this look 10x better.

coco jones - my FAVORITE. im literally gagged. the black lace dress and the gold she literally looks stunning. i love the way she did her hair, the chunky jewelry, her nails and the headband. everything just blends beautifully. def my top 2 favorite pink carpet looks. i have no recommendations she ate.

tyla - tyla's outfit stood out and was absolutely gorgeous in my opinion. she stuns in a pretty hot pink number and i think that her heels go rly nice with the dress. her messy up do also gives off an air of elegance and beauty just like jordyn woods.

mary leest - her outfit is perfectly elegant with just the right amount of sexy and its so so pretty. i love the boa that she draped across her shoulders and the black gloves add a touch of old hollywood glam that im LIVING for.

leonie han - her dress is rly pretty and i love the delicate color of it. but again, PLEASE ACCESSORIZE ADEQUATELY. its such a shame when such a pretty dress is wearing someone and not the other way around. and strangely enough i feel like its not the bracelets and necklace that weren't enough its the HAIR. maybe something a big bouncier and bigger to give her outfit the fullness that it desperately needs.

jakie aina - her outfit is gorgeous, could use a shimmery necklace but aside from that its very very pretty on her. the outfit has fullness to it without needing a lot of accessories which is why i think that as long as the outfit speaks for itself the accessories are optional.

THE RUNWAY ; 

lisa’s black lacy number (def one of my favorites on the whole runway. i wish she had black lacy wings instead of the structured ones but easily my favorite)

anok yai’s floral number (she’s literally blooming, she looks like a FLOWER. her hair is giving barbie dolll and ultimately she had my favorite look of the whole entire night. the WINGSSS, the shoes everything just goes together beautifully.)

gigi hadid (she looks like a lavender princess fairy and it looks amazing on her. but PLEASEE why the slick hair?? when i think victorias secret im thinking of bouncy voluminous hair. i LOVE her wings though. they're so big and over the top and i love it)

imaan hamman (also goes with lisa and anok yai in my top three favorite looks of the night. its so simple but in my opinion her look gives the victorias secret that we all know and love the most.)

alex consani (i rly rly love baby blue on her, again, please bring back bouncy voluminous hair. and i kinda wish they gave her fluffier wings.)

maty fall (the silk, the feathers, chefs KISS. in his case i think the minimal wings look the prettiest because her outfit is fuller, the delicate wings complement it beautifully.)

jasmine tookes (i love the baby blue color on her, her lingerie specifically needed bigger wings because of how delicate the lingerie is. without the big wings it just lacks umph)

kate moss (i love lacy black if u cant already tell so i rly liked her outfit. the fluffy wings are also a nice touch and suit it prettily)

ashley graham (the gold details on her wings make her outfit pop and i love this for her. the lingerie also looks really gorgeous on her)

some honorable mentions include alessandra ambrosio, candice swanepoel's red number, bella hadid's red number, and miss TYRA BANKS…💬🎀

Raphael thoughts

I’ve been analyzing him a lot recently so here are some thoughts I have about my favorite cambion.

SFW

- tbh, I don’t think he’d be that bad in a relationship. He canonically says he cant resist helping you, he likes you. Maybe he almost respects you? In a way. Sure, he’d be toxic sometimes. But he even said he’d “make time for his favorite client”. He cares about you, I think he’d be pretty nice.

- For example, I think he’d buy you nice things. He has expensive taste and he’d want you to look good next to him. And ofc he’d love handing you a beautiful dress or necklace to see a smile on your face.

- he’s actually your biggest supporter. He genuinely wants you to succeed in the things you do. You can see from a conversation with Korilla.

- He reminds me so much of Ursula lol. Flamboyant, manipulative, condescending

- It’d take a while of being in a relationship with him for him to open up, but eventually he’d vent to you about his father and issues between them. I think in general, he’s not super open, but he is quite honest.

- an example of that honesty is that he tells you that the Orphic hammer is a good trade and he writes in his journal that he really believes it is. I think he genuine likes you and wants to help you (but not quite enough to let you get in the way of his plans)

- I don’t think you can “fix” him or calm his ambition down as much as you can with Astarion or Gale. But I think you can calm him down just enough for him to let himself express his human side around you more often.

- hugs! He would be suave and very nonchalant about letting you hug him, but he secretly LOVES holding you in his arms. Feeling you in his grasp. His own little mouse all to himself.

- LOTS of banter. Well, he likes your praise and attention all to himself. But he also likes some arguing. He finds you being opinionated and having stimulating intelectual conversations attractive.

NSFW

- This guy has serious anger issues. It’s not hard to piss him off. I think it’d be a lot of fun to rile him up sometimes. He’s cute when he’s angry. Ofc, this can lead to… “punishment” and such… “activities”

- now about him being a bottom and whatever. Here’s what I think based on other headcannons I’ve heard. 1) he wouldn’t rly bottom for you. he wouldn’t submit to anyone who wasn’t him (or on his level like Haarlep who is in Raphael’s form anyway). 2) he’s “bad” in bed bc he doesn’t have to do any work to be satisfied. Haarlep does all the work and they don’t have a romantic relationship aside from sex so there’s no real reason for him to put in any effort. But you can’t tell me after idk, hundreds of years? of having sex he doesn’t know how to fuck?

- he would never make you do anything you didn’t wanna do. When it comes to how you guys do the devils tango, I think these headcannons are totally up to you. But imo, he’s a dom on the aggressive side with teasing, humiliation, and condescending praise.

If you have any bc questions (ex: would he like ___?) pls comment :) I hope you like these hcs 🫶🏼

[possibilistfanfiction]

Hi, may you please spare some advice on what casual, but also cool in a hot climate, clothing a baby butch could look into wearing that’s a bit fashionable and isn’t just a shirt and a cargo shorts?

whew first of all donate any & all cargo shorts immediately (pretend tan france is telling you that Urgently). i do understand finding shorts can be kind of weird depending on ur body shape bc men’s shorts are often bulky & long. i prefer a 5’ inseam, but you can go for a 7’ if that feels better. under No circumstances should ur shorts hit ur knees lol. madewell has some pretty good options (if you can find one that’s mens & womens in-store that’s the best). pacsun usually has some pretty chill options. for online shopping, bearbottom shorts is not too expensive & has a lot of colors in both 5’ & 7’ shorts. i really like the swim shorts both& just made (not sure if they’re sold out). get lighter colors in the summer if you want for shorts, & just… no khaki.

& i love a t-shirt, but it’s in how it’s worn. i don’t think it even needs to be an interesting t-shirt, but it should have a fit & pov that looks intentional. i like to get my t-shirts a size up & tuck them in, sometimes pair them with an overshirt. if i know i’m going to be SWEATING & i want to wear a tshirt, i’ll wear something looser & actually thicker cotton in either black or white. i’ve had top surgery so i can wear tanks without stress but if binding is a concern, both& has some great tanks for ppl who bind.

if you do want to be more dressed up than a short/t-shirt combo, the answer is & will always be linen. a short sleeved linen button up (from really anywhere you like that fits well — uniqlo has both men’s & women’s in many earthtones for under $50!) is The Key. put it on as an overshirt over your t-shirt or wear it buttoned halfway in a french tuck. i prefer to stay away from patterns & bright colors bc it can easily look a little zany, but do your thing there. i have a few pairs of linen pants i also love, especially for things like taking my wife on a date, or if it’s just a cool day/nighttime activity etc. literally just… linen button ups & linen pants, even drawstring pants! if you wanna ball out, theory makes my favorite linen pants, but oak + fort is a close second & much more affordable. everlane also has all of these pieces in mens & womens & is very high quality!

idk ur shoe situation but two great options are always birkenstocks (the rubber ones are under $50 & v comfortable) and/or all white low air force 1s. a good all white sneaker is a great starter sneaker & will always go with everything. i myself prefer dunk lows but u gotta rly be wanting to invest in some sneakers to do that lmao but if you are! they’re cool

lastly, small accessories go a long way! i have a few chains, a small hoop earring, a ring (& my wedding ring but lol i don’t think we can count that as an accessory), & then sunglasses i love. i have a Beautiful watch from my wife but literally just a watch w a normal watch face & a leather band is better than nothing or wearing a smart watch out when there’s quite literally no need lol. a good baseball cap, either plain black or from a cool brand (mine for this summer is aime leon dore) is both a nice addition & also practical. do not & i mean Do Not carry around a backpack unless u Absolutely have to lol. masc cross body bags or canvas totes are much better if u need a bag

also:

- you can find tons of overshirts thrifting or at outlets! since they don’t have to fit perfectly it can be a great place to look for them

- i live & die by a good pair of light wash denim in the summer. allsaints & madewell always have beautiful denim, but you can look at levi’s as well, or thrift!

- tailoring is not expensive!!!!!!!!! if u find pants u love that are too long, just get them hemmed! fr it’s like $10, everyone needs a good tailor

- never underestimate a good sweatshort/t-shirt/overshirt/birks moment to go get a cup of coffee or something… 10/10

- i have definitely not been in a place financially to do this in the past, so pls take this w a grain of salt & of course do what’s best for your budget, but higher quality, simple fabrics ethically made are ALWAYS going to be best. they’ll last longer & keep their fit. launder ur clothes carefully too! hang drying pants & heavy cotton will get their lifespan to extend. & it’s 100% cool to find brands u love & stick to them. if u find a piece u like, u can get it in a few colors, rather than trying to find a bunch of other stuff. quality > quantity, capsule wardrobes are easier to wear & maintain

- some ppl whose fashion i like rn: courtney williams, arike ogunbowale, shanice van de sanden. & sue bird knows how to wear a short/button up summer set with the best of them. kristen kish Obviously. (& also i love mal from the queer ultimatum lmfaoooo)

- wear whatever u want, just not cargo shorts :)

[nekofrillpara]

i have neglected this blog(˃̣̣̥ᯅ˂̣̣̥) so here is a drawing of my oc but in a moitie coord..!(i usually do sweet or classic..! :o

moitie dresses didnt rly speak to me(cuz i love lots of prints ;;) but divine cross is really beautiful. The strapless in velveteen version reminds me of fleur de lys op which is a rly interesting design! c:

～ text ramble below just me updating my recent days! ～

my meow team ouji salopette from koi no mori arrived recently!!! i only did a quick fit test but i want to make a proper review... soon >|||< (when? Soon . .)

some weeks ago my school had a 3 day event and i dressed up for all days..although i didnt get any pics T~T so i didnt have anything to post (TA \)

recently i also (finally) bought some stuff from closetchild after thinking so long if i should <_<,, im excited to coord a nice frilly blouse (short sleeve too :D but that means i need to get wristcuffs soon..! D:) my current one gets the job done, but i want more frilly details :/ the other item is a short boots, which i *maybe* didnt need but it was cute and under 2k yen T^T (shipping is so expensive tho..!)

💦 : Is your OC’s attractiveness based on looks or a more intangible aura?

💘 : Is your OC a very good flirt? Are they charming?

💐 : What is their courting style? How would they woo someone?

✨ @countlessrealities. meme. still accepting!

💦 : Is your OC’s attractiveness based on looks or a more intangible aura?

in MY honest onion, virote's got both looks and vibes in spades. intimidatingly pretty even. and beautiful in a way that's really just like… editorial, high fashion. he's serving face, body, looks every moment of the day. especially face. perfectly manicured nails, some incredibly thick and jet black hair, and that dior lip glow + glass skincare combo? nah, he eats everyone up it can't even be contested lol.

virote really embodies the famous marc jacobs party dress code:

FUR COATS OVER LINGERIE, LIP GLOSS, JERRY HALL SIDE-SWEPT HAIR, SEQUINS, GOLD LAMÉ TURBANS, PATTI HEARST SYMBIONESE LIBERATION ARMY GEAR, ROGUE, ROLLERINA CHIC, SHEER HAREM PANTS, MINI SKIRTS AND MUSCULAR LEGS, PLATINUM RECORDS AS HEAD GEAR, SEQUINS, GRACE JONES BUTCH REALNESS, GLOSS-Y SKIN, BLEACHED EYEBROWS, SLITS, RIDING IN ON A WHITE HORSE, SEQUINS, SKY HIGH STILETTOS, MIRRORED AVIATORS, METAL MESH, COWL NECKLINE HALTERS, OR EYES OF LAURA MARS CHIC. NO FLAT SHOES. NO MATTE SURFACES. NO NATURAL LOOKS.

aura is on one hundred, too. he's so confident and smart and funny… vi has a scary aura almost lgfjdglkd. scary in a way that he really just does and says what he wants, when he wants, and does it with a smile on his face.

but men rarely find him attractive, so that's on them and their bad taste.

one day he's going to be recognized as the Hottie™ that he actually is. but he knows that everyone is just looking at an expensive steak with nothing but grocery store salami money.

💘 : Is your OC a very good flirt? Are they charming?

complete shit at flirting, he struggles navigating flirtatious situations. i think with the right man he does really well, but i think he realizes he's kind of underdeveloped in terms of romance like that lol. and it kills him but he tries. virote's charming around the right people, i think. most of the time he might come off as a little too whimsical, artsy-fartsy, and in his own head. virote doesn't really try to flirt either. you either find him attractive or dont lol. be charmed by his finesse or dont! but as im about to say in the ask below... he's so discouraged he doesnt even try anymore.

💐 : What is their courting style? How would they woo someone?

ya boy dont rly got one… lol. it's just kind of all natural with him. he has no style for trying to woo someone. you are either lulled into his little moonlight dazzle or not. i think the concept of trying to woo someone kind of embarrasses him. makes him feel like shit like that is just trying too hard. i think his courting style forreal though is that he's your homie, you're his homie, y'all homies, and you find his weird little habits kinda cute for some reason.

also every time he flirts he gets rejected so um.

he just does not do it anymore. lol. :/ he stopped trying lolll.

[ultraphobic]

Hi Lane! ☃️

Wow Taime Downe's style is incredibly cool! He's style truly sleaze glam and I think your look will be just as great!

Oh you dressed like Paul Stanley at the concert? this is great! what songs did you like the most?

Ohh thank you sm! You're very nice! I'm sure your glam shirts will be incredible.

I think your collection is incredible because all the Warrant albums with Jani on CD are my dream haha.This year I bought two albums with Jani on vinyl and it was quite expensive (about 50€ per record) since it is a limited edition.

I hope you can find something suitable in this store! Wow the Joan Jett song is a really interesting choice! It has some interesting slides and I did a cover with ghost notes that sounds pretty cool. And I’m sure your performance is even more beautiful.

Oh, that's normal! If you have a band in the future, you can work on material together and come up with some great songs.

OMG! YOUR COLLECTION IS THE COOLEST IN THE WORLD. I'd love to see pictures of some things after Christmas if you don't mind.

I envy all the people who were on any of the tours because THEY LITERALLY MADE HISTORY.And unfortunately I didn't find a single video from this tour on YouTube. nothing but an advertisement for the Poison tour with Cinderella lmao

Oh I'm so sorry you have to work until Christmas Eve. I hope you have a good rest afterwards. And the festive mood will definitely come after the party!

🎄in answer to one of the questions you mentioned Bon Jovi and Skid Row. Do you have any favorite songs from these groups? Trying to create a festive mood, I can recommend you the song performed by Jon "Please come home for Christmas"

🎄if you had more free time what would you like to do?

🎄Do you have any comfort foods or foods that you like to make yourself the most?

Your Santa ☃️🎄

hey santa!!!

i did dress like paul it was so fun & i loved when they played war machine & shandi! it was such a good show

oh yea those limited records will get ya. i got the limited coloured pressings of each of the warrant albums that they made (drfsr, cherry pie, dog eat dog, greatest and latest) and they each cost me about $60-80 so it was a lot! except cherry pie which was about $200 before shipping bc that was the signed one. it was worth it though bc i think they only press 2500 of each record!

the joan jett song was pretty fun! i think my school changed the arrangement because they made the bass have the solo instead of the guitars which was good for me but then i listened to the original song and i was like hey... this sounds different...

and yea! i can definitely show you some of the stuff in my collection! the patches are all sewn onto my vest so i can show you the whole vest, but all the picks n stuff i keep safe and stored away so i'll grab pics of those as well

i knowww if i had a time machine i'd set it to 1986 sunset strip start with poison and their first album and just go from there following tours and meeting bands, collecting original merch y'know?

the good thing is i only have to work until 3:30 on christmas eve so i can get a good afternoon's rest before christmas day! i'm working boxing day as well but at least i get public holiday pay for that

i actually started out my glam listening with bon jovi last year! my favourite songs are i'll be there for you, have a nice day, i wanna be loved, wanted dead or alive, bad medicine, it's my life, and also jon's solo song billy get your guns

i still need to listen to some more skid row stuff but rn my favourites are in a darkened room (i'm a sucker for a good power ballad), here i am, get the fuck out, 18 and life, and rattlesnake shake

if i had more free time (which i will hopefully be getting in the new year) i'd restart guitar lessons! hopefully i'll be able to do this in the new year once we (crossed fingers) get a new team member for our store so we all don't have to overwork ourselves as much

i don't really cook just because i'm not rly a foodie or anything but kfc chicken nuggets are a comfort food for me :)

hope to hear from you soon santa :)

okay guys i'm having a brainrot on my way to work about goncharov bc of all your sexy meta posts but i haven't seen a single one talking about the flowers in this film so indulge me

so i'm a florist right ? my n°1 passion when i watch a movie or a show is to trashtalk the flowers bc 99,9% of the time they look like shit. like. i made better arrangements during my first year of training. it makes me sad. yes goncharov is a brilliant film in itself but it gets a whole star just for the fucking flowers (i can't find the florist in the end credits if anyone knows pls tell me ??)

like we're talking thierry boutemy in marie-antoinette (2006) levels of artistry. all the arrangements are so BEAUTIFUL and i'm gonna talk about them. it will ofc mostly be about katya lmao bc men yet have to express themselves through delicate floral jewellery (i wish they did though. i am waiting). katya doesn't have that many lines for a main character but her presence and the colours speak for themselves. sorry i'm on mobile i don't have any pictures

alright so of course you have the wedding. everything is so fucking opulent it's a cascade of wealth you have almost no foliage at all except eucalyptus and that shit is expensive. there are more peonies than you could ever count and the roses are soooo beautiful (i think most of them are juliet peach roses but i can't be 100% sure) like. i could smell it from my couch it was as if i was there aaaa the fucking wax flowers and scabiosas i love scabiosas so much !! and the perfect balance between flowers of different sizes !!! it was wonderful i mean you've seen them

but what i love about these arrangements is that they're all in white and yellow. it's an unusual combo for a wedding even if white is a classic wedding colour in western cultures and yellow isn't so weird at the heart of summer. yellow is however also the colour of jealousy and betrayal and idk if you ever noticed but andrey's boutonniere is the ONLY ONE that is just yellow. you don't have the white carnation (associated with love. screaming) on it like everybody else. also note that katya's bouquet is only white which is all about purity elegance etc. i do think however that the colours of andrey and katya's flowers on that day are more about the way goncharov feels about them at that point in the story, rather than their own feelings.

we also see katya wear several decorated combs in her hair throughout the film (idk enough about hair stylism to comment of the haircuts themselves so i'll stick to the flowers). the first we see are pretty simple and not rly noticeable, white and pastel pink, typical discreet but feminine stuff. p much like the rest of her wardrobe up until the boat scene where things get interesting.

this is where katya meets sofia who is wearing that rly fucking gorgeous burgundy (ambition, power and wealth) dress and look i know monica bellucci can wear anything and be beautiful but fucking hell. i mean i'm gay but i briefly questioned myself for a second there. anyway. the boat shenanigans happen and once katya goes back home and pretends she didn't almost get fucking killed, the flowers in her hair are burgundy. i mean i know we have the fruit market a bit later but the comb is what sold me on that ship. i see you katya

when she almost shoots goncharov (if we were rly in love you wouldn't have missed AAAAAAA i'm normal) she has a super pretty mix of blue hydrangea/eucalyptus in her hair. blue is the colour of control and tranquility and i thought it was very sexy of her. she still has them when sofia leaves her and i love how you can see the tears about to fall down her cheeks but she doesn't allow it. things got out of hand but she's not willing to lose control of herself in front of sofia and i think ultimately it's what fucked things up between them but i try not to think about it too hard

what DOES however keep me awake at night is that martin scorsese rly thought it was okay to have red bouquets everywhere made in the exact style of goncharov and katya's wedding in goncharov's home when andrey shows up to kill him. i mean the subtext isn't even subtext at this point it's like saying point break isn't gay but the flowers are the fucking cherry on top. andrey shoots him and he doesn't miss because he loves him and in case you're too dense to understand that here is a decadent display of red and burgundy. it is the colour of love it is the colour of violence and in their case one simply does not go without the other and i am so fucking normal about this

[satoruzlove]

[k. sakusa , r. suna , a. miya ]

- suggestive at some parts , boys with cars, praising and touchiness ( kiyoomi ) , alcohol and FLIRTINGGG ( atsumu’s ), friends to lovers & lots of tension ( rintarou ) , also kiyoomi is called a sugar daddyLMAO but he isn’t i swear -

KIYOOMI SAKUSA ::

your boyfriend is meticulous in every aspect of his life. his looks, his health, his belongings- everything. from the way he keeps his clothing folded to how he cares for his multiple expensive , beautiful race cars. as a pro athlete it’s expected of him to have such things , but you’d never expect to see how he handles them with such care - almost as if they were people. he gets them serviced and checked every other month, and polishes the luxurious leather of the seats frequently. when you two were dating, he often picked you up from work in different cars each time - claiming to want to make you look like you were some kind of vip. although, whenever you requested to drive one of them, he’d give you a look. it’s not that he didn’t trust you, he just knew that you couldn’t drive for shit and there’s no way he letting you do trial and error on his multi million dollar mobile.

that’s how you got here ; standing beside him as he folds away some of his summer clothes and practically begging him to let you drive one of his babies. “i’ll even let you tell me how to drive, kiyo, you can be my instructor,” you whine softly. he muttered a ‘nope’ popping the ‘p’ to emphasise his adamancy on the topic. you tugged his shirt sleeve, nearly forcing his dark eyes onto you- before he even knew it, he was convinced. the thick lashes surrounding the swimming, sparkly pool of your irises bored up at him only interrupted momentarily by you blinking.kiyoomi’s eyebrows crunched , mimicking the way his heart squeezed in his chest, despite knowing you just wanted to use his car. he let out a loud, dramatic sigh before running a hand over his face. “fine, you can use one. i will be there, i will tell you what to do and i definitely will stop you if you screw up,okay?” your boyfriend bossed. you smiled up at him, “nono! you can just teach me yourself, i’ll pretend i don’t even have my license,” and when you saw the bored look on his face you added to your statement,” to y’know, ease your mind.”

kiyoomi poked his cheek with his tongue , only to stop a smile from forming on his face. “go get dressed into like,” he paused for a second, his tone questioning when he continued, “..driving clothes..?” and you laughed at that. happily you got dressed and headed to the lowest level of your two story house- the underground.as the sleek metal doors opened, multiple shiny, elegant cars came into view but kiyoomi made a beeline for one in particular. she was black, a two seater that had neon green highlights on her gorgeous sides. “ porshe 2022 911 gt3,” he muttered, slender fingers lightly brushing over the glossy hood. you gawk for a second, “ i have no idea what that is, but holy shit,” you mutter. he huffs a laugh before unlocking the machine.

you hop into the drivers seat, and kiyoomi stares you down. you nearly choke under his gaze , “ don’t tell me you changed your mind,” you challenge him. he laughs- heartily almost- until a smirk overcomes his pretty face. “ you said i could teach you, didn’t you? get up. you’re gonna be on my lap.” his tone is smooth, weight panging in your tummy as you process what he said. your hands hesitantly slide off the steering wheel, allowing him to get in. he adjusts his weight with his hips, hands resting on his upper thighs until he pats them. “ come,” he says, “ sit , we don’t have all day.”

you oblige, your own thighs caged by his as his hands find home on yours. he’s guiding them to the wheel, you observe. “ i’ll worry about clutch, acceleration and breaks. you just steer and change gears for me , okay?” you notice his tone is soft, gentle because of how close he is to your ear. his breath hovers right over the shell of your ear. you nod, and he turns the key in the ignition. little lights and buttons exert an array of colour- almost tempting you to press them. he revs the engine - a low, prolonged echo ringing throughout the underground garage and vibrating your intertwined forms. you close your eyes and soon you come to understand just why your boyfriend loves his cars.

“you know,” you mutter, head dropping onto his shoulder, “‘might steal this thing and flee the fuckin’ country. it feels so-,”,” freeing, huh?” he practically steals the words from your mouth. you nod, smiling breathlessly, “ exactly,” before continuing ,” maybe you being away so much isn’t that bad , considering how my friends think you’re my sugar daddy,” and your boyfriend scoffs. a thick, black brow raised,” atsumu was right, you really do want me for my money.” kiyoomi chuckles, earning another giggle from you. dreamily , you sigh, “ absolutely, you’re my lovely little sugar daddy,” kiyoomi’s body shakes with laughter and his dimples cave in- you swear you get butterflies every time they do.the warm up light on the car goes off and from that point , the drive was smooth sailing.

you didn’t go far , seeing as your house was quite far from anything else , you had a lot of room. you drove mainly around your area. you two had come to a park, very secluded and probably privately owned, and you parallel parked. kiyoomi’s lowered his head , muttering a ,” you’re really good at this, dunno why i was so worried. even i struggle to parallel park sometimes,” he admits shyly. you smile, but you don’t miss the way he gazes at you as your eyes train on the park just outside the window. as soon as your head turns, you’re met with kiyoomi. his lips on yours. your lover’s hand is on the back of your head- guiding you like he was as you drove- and his latter hand on your waist. for a moment he broke away, nose smushing against yours. “did so good for me today,” he muttered against you. you had no time to reply or even be surprised at his remark, as he dove in for another kiss. this one was hungrier, more passionate and less shy than before. of course, you followed the pace happily.

his lips left yours with a deep exhale , “ move to the passenger seat,” he instructed, “‘ wanna get us home real fast, gonna continue this in a more comfortable setting, yeah?” and as you moved, tumbling over the gear stick and quickly plopping yourself onto said seat, “gonna take my time with you, yn.” you heard from kiyoomi as he revved the car once more. you were definitely in for a ride.

SUNA RINTAROU ::

suna rintarou is your best friend. you’ve known eachother since child hood and have gone through absolute hell together. puberty, your first crushes, the trauma’s of young adulthood, dealing with the miya twins. you started liking him in middle school, only ever telling aran about it and swearing him to secrecy. you couldn’t tell if suna liked you, you knew that if he did feel the same he’d never tell you, because that’s how he was. any person he’s ever entertained had the same complaint , that he didn’t know how to express his feelings properly and they couldn’t take how badly he blows at communicating.

you don’t understand, and you could never ; because he knows how to communicate with you. you two have an inexplainable bond- and he doesn’t feel the suffocating, degrading feeling in his chest when he talks to you about how he feels. he trusts you with everything. he always has, he has no trouble telling you.

he trusts you with everything, except his cars. all 11 of them.

which is why you slapped his arm when he showed you his underground garage , claiming to ‘ wanna show you something really, really cool ’ he wasn’t lying. his black t shirt seemed to look godly under the stage lights of his garage, as he strolled next to you- taking in his collection and carefully watching your pupils blow in awe. “ you’re such a dick, rin,” you laugh, “ i can’t believe you kept this from me, knowing damn well i’d give my left tit to drive one of these” he snorts, head throwing back and eyes scrunching at your choice of words. he comes to a halt infront of a shimmery, matt- finished car. you eyes drag over the hood, the cat- like head lights and your eyes scrunch up in delight at the ‘ mommy’s boy’ sticker barely in sight. “ it’s a-“,” mclaren, 765lt right ?”

his moss green eyes betray the stoic look on his face. they widen, sparkling in amusement. “ i always forget that you have no friends and read all day,” he feigns a sugary sweet tone. you shove him by the hip, toddling over to the passenger seat. “stop being an ass and take me for a drive.” you sigh. rin tries to ignore how right it feels to have you in his passenger seat , the way his mind quickly flicks images of you two going out at odd hours for icecream, his hand in a wedding ring- your wedding ring- on the gear stick. “ rintarou, come back to earth!” you bark laughter, now infront of him. his eyes screw shut and widen, he hadn’t even realised that he zoned out. he’s looking down at you, eyebrows raised as he attempts to ease out of his daze.

“stop being so bossy, you little tree stump,” he mumbles, making his way to the driver’s side door. it slides open smoothly, and he practically jumps inside. as you do the same, a smell- his smell- envelopes you. old spice and a tinge of something sweet. you both reach for the radio at the same time, and as his hand makes contact with yours he nearly jumps away as if your hands were a burning hot coal. he clears his throat, starting the car and ignoring the furious flutter i the pit of his stomach. you connect your phone, skipping through your playlist. you finally choose a song, and rintarou swears he could fall over and giggle like a little girl at your choice.

“love you like a brother, treat you like a friend,

respect you like a lover, oh,oh,oh”

your best friend’s eyes flit over to yours, only for him to spot you lip syncing the words of the song. as he pulls out the drive way he imagines you- calling him your lover, holding him, kissing him, being his. he smiles softly when you turn to him, lip syncing the words with conviction. “ if you be the cash, i’ll be the rubber band,” you mumble along with the song, hands coming out to poke him to punctuate your words. he mirrors you, eyebrows lifting as he sings.”painter baby you could be the muse, im the reporter baby-,” you two look at eachother in unison, your hands finding his cheeks,” you could be the news,” and for a moment, he doesn’t realise that you’re holding him so sweetly.

when the chorus comes, you two sit in silence as he pulls over to a mcdonald’s drive through. it’s quiet,lights of the glowing sign washing you with hues of colour and making you look of another world. you turn to him, boredly saying, “ you’re not so bad if we get to do this ,” and he rolls his eyes. he clicks his tongue , “ you’re literally like inlove with me, shut up,” he jests. your eyes don’t move for a moment, neither does your body, until you mutter a ‘true’ and turn away like it’s nothing.

rintarou waits for you to make a joke- but you don’t.

his face is pink, your tone was so genuinely that he could believe what you said. that he could think you’re being serious. he sips his sprite, “ good.” he replies to you. whether you were kidding or not, it’s a safe response. you sit there in silence for hours, and for once, rintarou isn’t properly communicating with you ; because he values you too much. too much to lose you, too much to love you, because he doesn’t know how. he’ll take you for drives as much as you want- forever even- if it means he gets to keep you.

ATSUMU MIYA ::

you and your lover stumbled into his mansion, a heap of giggles and whiskey flavoured kisses. atsumu’s grip on your hips is hard, loving , equal parts stable as he ushers you down to his garage. the blond smiles at you, lovesick, “thank you for coming back with me, sweet cheeks,” he mumbles. you giggle, eyes shiny and doe like- not a single thought behind them- “ thank you for inviting me, tsumu,” you mewl in response. he grows tired of stumbling and picks you up, earning a girly giggle, and practically running down the stairs with you. “ tsumu!” you laugh heartily, tears in your eyes as he nearly falls but somehow manages to keep you off the ground. he gets up sloppily, converse squeaking against marble floors right before he enters the garage. the man puts you down, planting a disgustingly wet kiss on your cheek and rubbing it with his large, calloused thumb.

he spreads his beefy arms, “ welcome to my pride and joy,” he stumbles a bit, “ apart from you, and my dog, my babies of course” he smiles. your lips part in awe looking at them all, and he smirks with pride. you feel playful - “ glad i gave you a chance, babes, this is really impressive. might just marry you for all this,” you say. he raises his eyebrows, a smile on his face and the apples of his cheeks rising, closing the gap between you he gets so close that you smell your favorite champaigne on his breath. “well baby, if it’s the money you want i’ll give it you. cant say ‘no’ to the prettiest baby in the world, can i?” his eyes are glazed under the influence, but his tone sounds so kind. so tender with you. you knew that atsumu would put the ocean in the sky for you, but something about him saying made you fall for him again. your blond lover melts at the blush on your cheeks, and backs away again.

when he drags you to a car you pull him to a halt. “ tsum,” you say, “ we can’t drive- we had alcohol,” you say. atsumu laughs , grabbing your neck gently and placing yet another sloppy kiss on your cheek, “ i wanna make out with you in my car, honeybunch, not drive,” he slurs. he gets in the back seat,hauling you onto his thick thighs and kneading at your hips. “ so gorgeous, so handsome , so perfect for me,” he says in-between kisses placed lovingly on your puffy lips. “ my good baby, my baby.” he’s babbling, mindlessly saying whatever his heart desires, “ mine, mine, mine,” he continues, like a mantra , sacred and ancient- like the only thing that he knows.

he kisses your lips hungrily and squeezes your sides, as if to keep you and this moment in his grasp forever. the leather under you is hot with passion and affection, the most innocent lust he’s ever felt because you are worth everything. whether it’s all his money or his entire soul- he’d give it all to you.

brain went wOmp for sakusa’ s i’m not sureeee how i feel. also not proofread cus my phone is dying but i rly rly like atsumu’s like woah. tbh i’m JUST NOT SURE ABOJT KIYOOOOOOMIS AAAAAAA but this was fun af !!! kiss kiss fall inlove

[translation for italicized filipino words can be found here !]

words ; 2.75k

warnings ; angst, historical! au, reincarnation! au, brief mention of the japanese occupation, mentions of blood, death, using a gun, brief description of blood and like, corpses, description of a panic attack, cursing, somehow a cliffhanger :')) i'm sorry akjshaskjf and uh, major character death

summary ; sugawara koushi fell in love with y/n of the l/n family, one of the most influential filipino families after the japanese occupation. sadly, destiny wasn't on his side at the time... but as suga was reincarnated to be a volleyball player in japan, will y/n be reincarnated as well? watch sugawara koushi fall in love for y/n l/n all over again, despite the obvious language barrier.

pairing/s ; sugawara koushi x filipino fem! reader

taglist in the reblogs ! join my general taglist here ! <3 please do not plagiarize or copy unto another site, thank you!

the warm sound of the vinyl playing and hushed voices can be heard from outside your room. your family was hosting its annual get-together with your closest associates and business partners. like they've said, pagpapakitang-tao. you were sitting in front of your dresser, eyes travelling to ayaka as she applied your makeup. you changed into more formal-wear afterwards with expensive jewelries hanging over your neck, and slipping into some high heels.

"my lady, y/n," you looked at sugawara, your family's most loyal aid, who had his hand outstretched to you. "your father and his guests are looking for you."

you sighed, standing up, and taking his hand. you pat down the dress you were wearing with your other hand, looking at the mirror just beside you as you fixed yourself, thanking ayaka before you left. "thank you, suga, let's go, then."

"is this the infamous daughter of f/n l/n?" you smiled but it does not quite reach your eyes as sugawara noted beside you. "aba't pagkakagandang dalaga! ilang taon na ba at nang maipakilala ko sa aking unico hijo?"

"she's eighteen, kumpare."

"eighteen! she's as beautiful as her mother." you thanked him, as your eyes travelled to the guy beside the said person. ah, oikawa tooru, the son of one of the most influential people not only in the philippines but also in japan. shortly after the japanese invaded your homeland and left, your family, despite being influential, were also caught in the crossfire. you were fortunately spared from everything that happened given your father's status, which was higher than that of oikawa's family as you presumed.

and so, sugawara koushi was counting himself lucky. born into a poor family who migrated to the philippines after the japanese invasion, he was fortunate enough to get a job. having the l/n as masters were a gift for the sugawara's as they never tried to discriminate the sugawara family for coming from japan. in fact, mr. l/n seemed adamant that they keep their jobs and so, a few years after the philippines' freedom, here they were, serving the l/n family.

koushi looked at you as you uncomfortably shook hands with oikawa tooru. the oikawa family were few of the people he remembered from when they were still in japan, he could still remember little koushi, maybe thirteen, staring in bright and wide eyes at him, the prime of kids his age, tooru of the oikawa's. but alas, all things, even his adoration, must come to an end.

"tooru," oikawa tooru said after you shook his hand. "you can call me tooru."

you cleared your throat, "oikawa-san, i'm not trying to be rude but i am not here for pleasantries. i'm simply here on my father's account."

koushi struggled to keep his face straight, lips pursing. oikawa tooru noticed, turning his attention to him. "and who might you be?"

you furrowed your brows as you looked at koushi, clearly confused. "he's sugawara koushi."

oikawa looked at him from top to bottom, clearly judging him. koushi tried his best not to let it get to him. he is, after all, just a servant.

"maybe you can leave y/n and i alone?" oikawa said, his voice saccharine and filled with so much which you didn't fail to notice.

koushi was about to leave, not wanting to aggravate oikawa more when you spoke. "i don't know where you got the idea that you could belittle my friend because as far as i know, you are in my household so please do not talk to him that way."

koushi looked at you, his mouth bound to form a small smile. you do, however, turn to him and whispered, "please excuse me while i deal with this… ass."

he stifled a laugh, nodded, and bowed. he left you with oikawa, not without hearing you, "okay, let's talk, oikawa-san." with a tone so… he dared say… annoyed.

he hung a little back, chatting amongst the other helpers, his eye catching his mother's who was cooking in the kitchen. aside from the scene with oikawa, the night went smoothly with your father, introducing koushi to some of his associates.

you and koushi were… friends, you think? you were both about the same age and so, when your father hired them a few years back, he was the one friend you made during your teenage years. of course, there were awkward moments still but you were convinced that both of you were comfortable enough to call yourselves friends. he was definitely more outgoing than you but still, you both made it work, and so here you are.

the night slowly came to an end, koushi sat on a chair just far back as you and your father bid goodbye to the guests. you walked to him, plopped on the chair next to him, took off the heels you wore all night, and massaged your feet. you sighed, resting your back on the chair as you eyed him in your peripheral. "napakaraming nasabi ni oikawa," you muttered. koushi laughed gently, years of being in the philippines meant he had to be able to understand and speak filipino. "hindi ko mawari kung saan niya nahuhugot iyon."

"matagal nang nababalitaang may pagkamasalita si oikawa tooru, lalo na't noong nasa japan pa siya," he said. you both laughed. the night was exhausting. you never really understood why you need to do this but alas, being part of an influential family does that.

"tell me about it," you said as you massage your feet. "the heels were killing me though."

"oh," koushi stood, then kneeled in front of you, and took your foot. "let me."

you were embarrassed, trying to make koushi stand up. "oh my, you really don't have to, suga-kun. this is not really a part of your job."

"i know," he looked at you pointedly. "but as your friend, let me."

you rolled your eyes, letting koushi do as he pleased. you sighed in content as he massaged your feet, your feet slowly feeling a lot better than earlier. you caught your father's eyes who looked at you and then koushi. he raised an eyebrow at you. you shook your head to deny everything he seems to be saying with that look. he looked lowkey amused, turning to the other servers as he gave them instructions about the leftovers from the event.

"koushi, may we talk for a second?" your dad called him so you waved at him with a small smile, bidding him good night.

"ano po iyon, mr. l/n?" your father's hand clasped gently on his shoulder, holding a smile that was too much for it to seem genuine.

"i want to thank you for taking care of my daughter," he said. "i will be counting on you to be there for her, not only as her guard but as one of her closest friends."

"of course, sir." koushi smiled.

"and of course, your family has always been loyal despite our repercussions from the japanese occupation." why is he speaking like… "i need you to do me a favor."

"anything, sir."

"i believe that one of these days, i may have to leave y/n." your father looked dejected. "and it will take a large emotional toll on my daughter. she lost her mother at an early age and i'm the only family she has left. but, our family has a lot of enemies, and i believe that one of my associates betrayed me and my family. kinakailangan mong ingatan si y/n sa dahilang baka hindi ko na siya maprotektahan."

"you're in danger..." koushi's voice wavered, having grown close to your father as well.

"i'm telling you this so you know what to do." his eyes stared directly into koushi's. "however, i am lead to believe that even my daughter's life is in danger. please protect her. masyado pang maaga upang magkita silang muli ng kanyang ina… ayoko ring sumunod siya agad sa akin kung sakaling.."

"sir, i will protect her with my life." he will…. he will.

f/n sighed, smiling at koushi, nodding. "thank you. you may go now. you had a long night."

that night was the last night y/n was caught smiling because a few days after, her father was found dead with bullet holes. it was presumed that his enemies got to him and so, f/n l/n's was no more. the sugawara family stayed with y/n as most of the maids and servants were relieved of their job.

and koushi promised to protect you, even with his own life at stake.

and so as he stared at the bloodied bodies of his… parents, he cleared his head, now solely focusing on you. there were tears in your eyes which you tried holding in, feeling the cold nuzzle of the gun on your temple. you couldn't move, your captor's hand gripping firmly around your neck. you locked eyes with koushi, smiling a bit to assure him that you were fine… even if you're clearly not.

"you don't have to do this," koushi's voice was shaking, his eyes darting from you to your captor. "just let her go."

"just go, koushi!" you screamed, the arm around your neck tightening for a bit, choking you. "you can still go."

"not without you, y/n!"

"please, pakawalan mo na siya. ako yung dapat mong mapatay, hindi ba? 'wag ka nang mandamay ng iba pang inosente!"

"no, y/n! we're leaving together!"

a gunshot broke your conversation making you flinch and scream. he pointed his gun at you, saying, "tanginang! ang iingay puta, tumahimik nga kayo!"

you locked eyes with koushi for the slightest of seconds, him nodding at you. you stomped your foot on one of your captor's feet, biting his arm at the same time. koushi was quick to be beside you, kicking his groin, effectively releasing you.

but of course, you both left your guard down too much, not noticing your captor as he aimed his gun at you. there was ringing in your ear as you looked at the blood dirtying your clothes, slowly spreading as you spurted out blood, the taste of iron filling your mouth as you felt yourself falling.

next to you, koushi was stricken. he had half a mind to finish the job of successfully making your captor fall unconscious, and back to your side he went. his hands clutched to your clothes, a guttural sob wracking out of his body as he tried to claw through, his other hand going to his parents'.

"'shi," you called out to him with every ounce of strength you have left. "'hank you."

"don't speak, y/n" he said shakily. "we can still make it to the hospital. we can-"

"you know," you coughed, more blood trickling down your chin. "we won't make it."

"we will!" his tears were now dripping down on you. "hold on, y/n!"

"i never got to tell you this, kou." his nickname sounded so good when you said it. if only you were not dying in his arms. "i really think you were good looking, napakakisig mo lalo na noong gabing kinausap ka ng aking ama."

"y/n."

"aaminin ko, nahulog ang loob ko sa'yo. bakit naman hindi, 'diba?" you laughed, the pain in your body catching up to you making you wince. "i'm sorry for bringing it up in these circumstances. gusto ko lang masabing mahal kita sa huling pagkakataon."

koushi was sobbing again, clutching y/n's weakened body in his continued whispers. "i love you too, y/n. mahal kita, please don't leave me."

you smiled, lifting your head to place a small kiss just beside his lips. "thank you for everything, koushi. until we meet again, paalam."

"no, y/n." he closed his eyes, screaming once again. "no!"

sugawara koushi, age 18, woke up with a scream. he felt hot tears running down his face as his dreams-- no, nightmares plagued with the same person he couldn't really remember. all he remembers was the pain in his heart, clenching into nothing.

his parents were worried when he went down after showering, asking him if he was okay. with a pained smile, not really understanding why, he dismissed them, saying he was okay.

he was most definitely not.

he was still thinking about his recurrent dreams nightmares after school when he went to practice. his best friend, sawamura daichi, noticed this and immediately talking to him before practice started.

"suga, you've been out of it since this morning, are you okay?" daichi said as he stripped down to his boxers, changing into his pe uniform.

"it's nothing," he smiled, trying to convince them enough for them to back off. "i'm okay, really."

"well you should be," daichi said. "or else i won't make you attend practice."

suga rolled his eyes, bumping into daichi's shoulder affectionately, "you wouldn't."

"i would. don't try me." they laughed, going to the gym where the others were already stretching.

aoba johsai… one of the most prestigious schools in miyagi along with the powerhouse school, shiratorizawa. suga's head hung low as he listened to the condition wherein kageyama should be the setter for the whole game, leaving him benched. it hurt, it really did, but what can he do? and so, being the bigger person, he went to coach ukai and convinced him that it was okay to choose kageyama. it was just a practice match…

and so karasuno practiced and practiced, suga's mind slightly forgetting about his ominous dreams. the day came. everyone was pumped. suga smiled as hinata talked to tanaka, their voices blocking his sudden nervous thoughts.

"we're here! everyone out!" coach ukai said. "let's go!"

suga couldn't help but look at you. you were talking to another person he assumed to be a manager as well. he doesn't understand why he was captivated by you but he was. daichi nudged him along, noticing he was almost left by the team.

"y/n," you turned to your senpai, ayaka. "you'll be greeting karasuno today. i'll be assisting coach mizuguchi for the things needed for the practice match, okay?"

"okay! thank you, ayaka!" she smiled, patting your shoulder, greeting karasuno's coach and advisor as she accompanied them inside.

"uh, hi! my name's y/n l/n, a manager for the aoba johsai's boys volleyball team!" you bowed down, them doing the same. "i'll show you to the locker rooms where you can change."

you looked back, noticing a gray-haired guy staring at you so you smiled at him, confused. "um, you okay?"

"yes." he said after a beat. "i am, i'm sorry for staring."

"no, it's fine. i'll just be waiting here in case you guys need anything." you waved at kiyoko who went out to talk to you, striking up a conversation.

who are you…

you sat on the sidelines, ayaka on your left side. you took down notes with her, eyes slightly flickering to the bench where the gray-haired boy was sitting. ayaka noticed this, immediately shooting you knowing looks. your face burned with embarrassment, deciding to watch the game entirely. after the second set, oikawa finally came. he went to you and ayaka, asking what happened when he was not there yet.

suga's eyes locked on you and oikawa's figures. a sharp pain shot through his chest, memories of him being beside you with oikawa tooru in front of you flitted in his brain. he deeply breathed, noticing how everything stopped, a few muffled voices buzzing in his ear. he can vaguely hear daichi talking to him.

memories suddenly flooded his mind: you smiling at him as he massaged your foot, him talking to a man who look really similar to you, him sitting beside you as you both watched the sunset, him comforting you when your father died, his parents' bloodied figures as he tried to reason with the one who was holding you captive…

and then, he saw you dying in his arms.

and now you're here. you're here? you were in front of him, his teammates were at a distance, all looking worried.

"hey," you said, holding his hand to let him know you were there while the other was holding his shoulder. "are you okay? you suddenly screamed and fell."

"i'm okay." he removed your hand. "thanks."

he stood up and left the gym to wash his face. he could hear his teammates asking you what happened but you really couldn't answer, simply staring at him as he left.

who are you, sugawara koushi...

Thats fucken it. 25.Did you create any characters (in games, art, or writing) this year? Describe one. Many actually bcs aside from various ocs, i run some trp games where i make 10+ npcs for. I guess one would be Winnie an npc i made for a game who i put so little thought in. Like i needed a character to fullfill a certain role so i recycled an old oc design and gave her like 2 personalty traits. Then though as we played, we all ended up liking her way more than id planned so anyway now she's in the queue to be an upcoming pc for a dnd campaign (with a slight redesign)

[llycaons]

what if the swords were people? and other speculation: collab between me and jae @dragonji

Based on appearance only I think bichen (trans lesbian) is a very well-dressed little lady..she has short person energy. She likes fashion and is always dressed in heavy winter robes. She may be a little vain but she has a good heart and thinks it's fun to vanquish evil.

Suibian (masc lesbian) is tall and stoic and works out a lot. She has a little fang and she likes outdoorsy stuff like hiking. She's also very handy and likes to craft things out of wood. She is very deeply loyal.

Sandu is obsessed with reptiles/amphibians. Swamp lady! a bit creepy and wet but contrasts w Zidian in that shes really attached to her home and anyone who lives there and she might not say it outright but she's constantly doing little things for even random ppl she barely knows if they come from Yunmeng.

She can be offputting when she wants but mostly she just does outdoorsy stuff (gets along w Suibian before the whole brother breakdown wwx n jc go thru- or still gets along well just doesn't have much opportunity postcanon?)

ALSO she is a good cook. Spiciest and maybe strange ingredient choices but a good cook nonetheless. She shld be younger/middle aged at most as another point to constrast Zidian... Rly think shes secretly a huge softie tho she just has to trust you enough to show it.

She's a young person who has an old soul...she barely gets used in the show so it probably makes her sad. in her old age like jc I feel she's gotten more jaded and lonely as everyone left or died. She and suibian used to be close before suibian's fierce loyalty to wwx shut her away from the world.

Meanwhile Baxia is six and half feet tall and beefy as hell. Also a lesbian AND autistic. While she may seem intimidating, she has a huge soft spot for young children and is a great caretaker. Like Bichen she thinks vanquishing evil rules and like Suibian she loves to work out.

Suihua is an elderly and dignified butler. She was loyal to the father and she is loyal to the son as well. She has expensive tastes and likes sweets.

XY's sword jiangzai is an tumblr witch/egirl. Bit unhinged.

Hensheng is a contortionist who sometimes freaks out people by bending into shapes randomly. She'd be one of those people who makes herself very forgettable and doesn't stand out but Knows all the gossip bc ppl just forget to be on guard around her.

Another idea for Hensheng i think she Would be a like. Psychology + body language fanatic like constantly analyzing ppl and using that to determine how to interact but not always in a bad way at least at first i think its well meaning and comes from insecurity but gets to the point where she has all these preconcieved notions abt ppl and acts accordingly around them. She wouldnt share any of this with others either and she is really observant so it typically ends up being at least somewhat correct.

Fuxue (femme) and Shuanghu (butch) are old married social worker lesbians.

They have an opposite dynamic of xxc and sl's, where Shuanghua is a little blunt and can come off as p cold despite caring a lot (also autistic btw<3) and Fuxue is really easygoing and the socializer of the two.

Fuxue means "brushing away snow" and I just think she would be really motivated by making ppl's lives better and also very very sweet to her wife.

Shuanghua is a botanist who studies medicinal herbs but is also a gardener who just grows a ton of flowers for the hell of it.

And now...the others

Chenqing is a very pale and eerie-looking little girl who can't speak, only sing or scream. She often hides behind wwx's robes until she is called forward. Postres after reuniting with wwx she's more relaxed and friendly, able to find joy in the world rather than just controlling the dead. She loves to sing.

Wangji is a tall woman with a strong presence and a beautiful voice. I see her as very motherly and kind…she wears lovely golden and white robes. Also, bisexual.

Zidian is a seasoned older bodyguard. She is deeply loyal to the Jiangs but also rather ruthless and doesn't care about who she hurts. She has her job and she does it

Nhs's fan is a very well-educated and mischievous lady who likes to eavesdrop.

NERVOUS J.T.

Request: Hello! I would love a fluffy Jason x reader where he goes and buys a engagement ring and says 'I'm rly nervous what if she says no I'm not good enough for her' and dick says BOI JUST DO IT and he does and fluff and crying (from both reader and Jason?!!! :000).

Warning: fluff

A/N: I’m losing followers + Raptors won tonight so HA suck it Celtics 

Word Count: 1.8k

Jason and Dick didn't always see eye to eye. They had their fights and disagreements. Neither of them could be in a room for too long together before one was storming out in rage and frustration. At the end of the day, they were brothers, as much as they didn't always want to be.

So, when Jason showed up at Dick's apartment, out of the blue and in civvies, he was more confused than anything. Jason didn't just come by to have coffee and a chat, he came by for business and that was it. Nonetheless, Dick invited him into his home and offered him a drink.

The couch shook as Jason bounced his leg up and down nervously. It was rare to see him like this - he always exuded confidence. Dick handed him the mug of hot tea and sat on the chair across from him. Without evening having to ask, Jason started to spill why he was so antsy.

"It's (Y/N)."

"Are they okay?" Dick asked, suddenly concerned. He had been the one to introduce you to Jason all those years ago. The two of you clicked instantly and it hadn't taken long for him to fall in love with you. You and Jason had been through lots - running with the Outlaws, fighting along side the Great Batman, the two of you have even been to hell and back

No matter what it was, you were always at Jason's side - and he at yours. Dick had never seen such a perfect couple together, he didn't know what Jason would be like if he didn't have you. As the two of you grew, so did your relationship. You became a more mature couple, not just the young, reckless kids you used to be.

Crime fighting was no longer the priority, it was each other. Jason was always going to keep you safe, whether it was day to day life or stopping crime. You had each other's backs constantly. Now, it was time to make that a little more permanent.

Jason rustled his hand in his pocket to find the small velvet box that he had picked up several weeks ago. To be honest, he had impulsively bought it. Now, he was unsure of what to do with it and nervous as hell about what you would think of it.

"Holy shit, man," Dick's eyes widened as he looked at the beautiful engagement ring inside the box. He grabbed the ring from his brother to look at it better. If he knew you well enough - which he did - Dick knew that you were going to absolutely love this. It was exactly your style. "This is amazing!"

"You think they'll like it?" Jason nervously asked. He had not once brought up the idea of marrying you. For years, you thought that he was just content on how your relationship was - not that you thought any differently. Marriage never seemed like an option for either you, your lives were far too busy.

Jason hadn't thought about it for a long time. He didn't think that he needed to marry you to prove his love to you. But, as he passed that jewelry store, all he could think about would be how stunning you would look walking down the isle. As soon as that image popped into his head, he knew he needed to make it a reality.

"I think they'll love it," Dick confirmed. He handed the ring back over to Jason, who tossed the box around in his hands. The first Robin could tell that he wasn't quite convinced by his answer. "You don't think so?"

"I don't know," Jason admitted. "We've been together for so long, but what if that's just because it's easier this way. What if they don't actually love me? What if they say no? I don't want to lose them just because I want to take this extra step."

"You're not going to lose (Y/N), Jaybird," Dick assured. There was no one more perfect for Jason, than you. Everyone knew that, the second that they saw you guys together they assumed that you had already been married. Hell, half the time you acted like it. "They love you, more than anything. Besides, (Y/N) is the best thing to have ever happened to you, there's no way you'll give up on that love so easily."

"Has (Y/N) ever talked to you about a wedding?" Jason asked. He knew that you were friends with Dick for a long time, if there was anyone that would hear about your secrets, it was him. As much as he didn't like you being friends with his older brother, there were times that he was thankful for it.

"No," Dick shook his head. You had never even toyed with the idea of marriage, or maybe you had just kept your thoughts silent. Either way, neither of the men had a clue about what you thought of it. "They're happy with you no matter what. Propose to them, they'll be excited. I know it."

"I hope you're right, Dick."

><

In all your time that you had known Jason, he had never seemed nervous to you.

Jason was always confident in everything he did - or at least showed that he was. Whether it was beating the ever living hell out of someone or flirting with you, he showed that he knew exactly what he was doing. That was one of the things you loved about him - he was confident.

In all your time that you had known him, Jason proved every day how much he loved you. Whether it was making you breakfast in the morning, buying you flowers out of the blue, or being the hidden romantic that he likes to be. There has never been a time that you doubted his love for you.

For the first time in a long time, Jason had offered to take you on a date. The two of you got dressed up all fancy and headed to some expensive restaurant that you weren't sure you could afford. It was a pleasant surprise to see Jason dressed up in a suit. He looked handsome, but when didn't he?

Throughout the entire night, Jason wavered been the utmost adoration for you, and a state of anxiety. You could see this struggle within him, and upon asking why, he didn't give you a straight answer. Jason often shrugged off his feelings, even when it came to you. It wasn't a surprise when he did it again.

In the end, you had a delicious meal, and an excellent time with Jason, even though you were still worried about him. You hadn't noticed, but Jason continuously shifted the small velvet box in his pocket. That was the reason he had been so nervous.

Jason had full intentions to ask you while you were having your dinner. He had chickened out at every opportunity that he had gotten. Now, the two of you were walking hand in hand as the sun set in the sky. Your home wasn't far away, and instead of hailing a ride, you decided to walk. Any peaceful time spent with Jason was well worth anything.

"You've been acting off all night, Jay," You brought up, again. Jason's hand tightened around yours for a brief moment. "Are you sure you're okay? Bruce isn't getting to you again is he? I'll got talk to him, he doesn't scare me, you know." Yes he did.

Jason chuckled at you, just another thing that he loved about you. You were always willing to protect him against all odds. "No, I haven't talked to Bruce in months," Jason assured you. He stuck his hand in his pocket once more, the heat of the box burning through his skin. "I love you."

"I love you, too," you reached up to kiss him. Jason smiled into the kiss before pulling away. His smile quickly turned into a frown. This had only made you more nervous about what was going through his head at the moment. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just," Jason stuttered over his words. Seeing him nervous like this, it wasn't something you were used to. "I love you, more than anything in this world. And I know that this life that I'm trapped in isn't ideal, and I'm sorry for dragging you in it. But, I wouldn't change anything if it meant I got to have you for the rest of my life.

"You mean everything to me, and I don't know what I'd do without you. You're the person that drives me to be better, to come come home every night. You're the reason that I smile and laugh. I guess what I'm trying to say is... (Y/N) (L/N), will you marry me?"

Jason pulled out the box from his pocket. Just as he was nontraditional in every sense possible, he was with this as well. Instead of getting on a knee, Jason held the opened box towards you, an obvious tremble in his hands. He was far too nervous to move from his spot and get down to the ground.

Tears stung your eyes, never had you imagined Jason would want to get married. You always assumed that he was happy with your relationship and never needing to conform to society's wish of marriage. You were content with that, but marriage was always something you wanted, only with him.

All the words you wanted to say were stuck in your throat. You wanted to scream to the world that you were going to marry the man you loved. You wanted everyone to know just how lucky you were. Instead, all you could manage was a head nod and a massive grin on your face. Jason's nerves finally broke.

He matched the grin that you had and wrapped you in his arms. Without any effort at all, Jason hoisted you off the ground and spun you around. As soon as your feet touch the cement, your lips were on his. he had been beyond excited that you were just as happy as he was about this step.

Jason plucked the ring from the box and smoothly slid it on your finger. It suited you just perfectly - as much as he didn't want to admit it, Dick was right. Jason wiped the tears streaming down your face, followed by wiping his own.

"I love you, Jason," You kissed him once more. Jason no longer cared that you were in the middle of the sidewalk. People walking by as you were completely engrossed with each other. He couldn't bare the thought of letting you go, feared that your acceptance of his proposal was nothing but his imagination.

"Dick was right," Jason chuckled. You raised an eyebrow at him, confused as to why he was bringing up his brother at a moment like this. "You are the best thing that's ever happened to me."

[possibilistfanfiction]

hey can I get some advice, if you have any? my friend is getting married and im invited, but I have no ideia what to wear. I'm afab, non binary, and pretty much closeted in all the ways that matter; I've been wearing men's clothes exclusively for a few years, but I only ever get read as female. I'm 26 and have avoided all family weddings so far in huge part because of formal wear, bc I would die if I had to wear a dress but I (so far) have not been brave enough to try wearing a suit, but this friend is the first of the friend group to get married and she actually wants me there (as opposed to getting invited by cousins and such just bc we're related) and I want to be there to support her. do you have any experience in choosing formal wear? in my place, what would you wear? is it better to go to a shop and risk them refusing to give me a mens suit or try to get something online and risk a bad fit? help!

there’s great suiting for dfab people that u can get either online or in store, depending on where u live. i don’t think you’ll get smth that fits horribly as long as you take ur measurements beforehand, plus most places have size consultants. wildfang has cool suits, they’re a little less formal (which can be great!) but easy to dress up/down & in the future wear as separates. kirrin finch is a little pricier but they make beautiful clothes for masc dfab ppl. both have a p decent size range. sharpe suiting & bindle and keep both do like GORGEOUS custom suits, but they’re expensive & u have to book in advance, so that might not be the vibe for this outing.

in store stuff, i actually rly like theory & all saints; theory is expensive but they have all kinds of different womens cuts, so u don’t actually need a mens suit, although like… no one will rly care if u go try one on? for me, either dfab specific menswear or just andro womenswear fits better, so i’ve stopped worrying abt that & just gone for fit. for less formal, cos & oak+fort have some cool co-ord options that could be fun, esp for a summer wedding. bigger department stores like nordstrom will also have a ton of options across price points

i also think an amazing option is to go to a thrift store, especially if you have a queer one in ur area (out of the closet!). they’ll have lots of options that aren’t too expensive, & will be able to help you find stuff.

& then finally, tailor it! tailoring isn’t that expensive at all (tailoring a suit will probably be under $50) & it’s so easy to make ur clothes fit the way u want them to!

also i will say — i actually hate full suits for myself, they’re way too masc for me & i just. never in my life do i rly wanna wear one lol. i like a good tuxedo pant & an expensive tee & a cashmere cardigan or smth, & i also have a few semiformal & formal kurtas to wear to stuff bc my wife is desi, so sometimes those make more sense & are fun n cute. if a full suit feels like too much, u can wear rly nice stuff that isn’t quite as masc or quite as formal, & it’s (arguably) even more in fashion rn

so just yknow whatever ur vibes are, there rly are so many options. have fun w it! clothes are supposed to be fun! definitely don’t let being scared of formalwear have u miss a wedding u wanna go to, i swear literally nothing is that deep lol
