WARNINGS: WORD VOMIT 😞😞 LOTS OF CURSING
☁︎ — JUNE 14TH, 2024 11:04 AM
hearing the sound of the doorbell, you quickly eyed your door confused. a small gasp leaves your mouth as you find yourself smiling fondly. quickly getting up from your spot on your bed. “he’s here!’ you giddy whisper to yourself as you continue walking towards your door.
with a small smile on your face, you open the door to greet your boyfriend. however, a frown immediately takes over your features at the sight of who was at the door.
“you’re not sohee,” you mumble as you eye seunghan. “what are you doing here, seunghan?” you add as you continue gripping your door handle. awkwardly shuffling in his spot, seunghan tries sending you a small smile before taking a step closer to you.
“10 minutes, that’s all i need.” seunghan pleads, looking at you with big eyes. “i swear.”
☁︎ — JUNE 14TH, 2024 11:18 AM
nervously chewing on your bottom lip, you make brief eye contact with seunghan and find him already staring at you. awkwardly clearing your throat, you immediately break eye contact as you continue waiting for him to speak up first.
“i’m sorry,” seunghan finally speaks up. taken back by his words, you send him a puzzled look as you wait for him to continue.
“i admit, what i did was really shitty,” seunghan sighed out, bringing a hand to awkwardly scratch the back of his neck. “from my tweets— to me bothering you when i knew you and sohee were becoming serious,” he added. “i’m really sorry.”
“i was jealous,” he finally admits after a brief pause as he shifts his focus to the ground, embarrassed at his confession.
scoffing at him, you shake your head at his words. looking up at you to see your reaction, seunghan immediately jumps up trying to defend himself. “i know that doesn’t justify it but–”
“i don’t think anything will justify it seunghan,” you cut him off. “sohee’s your best friend—” you add only to be quickly cut off by seunghan.
“you don't get it,” seunghan scoffs at you. sighing, he brings a hand to pull on his hair in desperation.
“then explain it!” you take a step forward towards him, challenging him.
“i fucking like you!” seunghan yells back as he mimicks your actions and takes a step forward towards you. “i was drawn into you since the first time i saw you at that one damn dining hall.” he shakes his head at the thought. “i even fucking remember what you wearing that day,” seunghan bitterly laughs at himself.
“i remember being so nervous to go up to you and when i finally mustered up the courage, your friends showed up.” not knowing how to respond to his sudden confession, you stare up at him with a slight open mouth. looking down at you, seunghan sighs as he takes this as his cue to continue.
“i also saw you in the chemistry building, i was so certain i was going to go up to you that day but you left before i could make my way towards you” seunghan mumbles, sadly smiling at you. “every time i would see you, i took it as an opportunity to try and get to know you,” he added, bringing a hand to softly move a strand of hair blocking your vision. still trying to process his words, you don’t have it in you to react to his sudden touch.
“when i met sohee,” seunghan gulps as he mentions his best friend. “i really didn’t know he liked you too but the day i found out, i decided to suppress my feelings for you.” he let out a sigh. “and it was working. it was fucking working. but– fuck! we just had to bump into each other at the library and you had to pull me back in.” seunghan groans at the thought before continuing. “you looked at me that day and you were blushing. i fought it, i swear i fought it so fucking hard but then i had to see you again here.” he gestures at your kitchen.
“i didn’t want– no, i don’t want to lose sohee but the way you glanced at me that day— i kept fighting it but then we bumped into each other again i-” he softly says, staring longly your way as he takes a single step forward.
“i felt like there was something there, did you feel it too?” seunghan whispers out, placing a hand on your cheek as he carefully watches you, trying to read you.
“i’m so sorry,” you softly answer back with teary eyes. feeling terrible at his sudden confession, you desperately try and find a way to soften the blow. “sohee-”
“you don't have to apologize, pretty girl.” seunghan cuts you off, sending you a sad smile. still staring at you, he couldn’t help himself but to bring his attention to your lips for a brief second before looking back at your eyes.
“in another life, could it have been us?” he quietly whispers. without grasping what was happening, seunghan finds himself leaning forward to try and close the gap between you two. with wide eyes, you gently bring a hand up to his chest.
“seunghan?” at the sound of a voice, you both immediately turn towards the direction of the voice. “oh, what the fuck.”

that ivan loves till is the most obvious thing about them
but. does ivan know that…?
the ivan that regards his own feelings as shallow, the ivan that learned how emotions are expressed only from copying others… does he even know that the love he’s felt for so long is love?
probably not. and part of the reason is the one he loves himself
because the easiest example he has of love is till's feelings to mizi. till outright calls it love, and ivan watches him so much he has to be aware of this
and till’s love to mizi is totally unselfish, right. he doesn’t seem to actually want much from her—just that she's still there and still "mizi"
but ivan can't be satisfied with just watching
he… wants. ivan wants till’s attention, till’s affection—
surely this selfish wanting can’t be love
...no wonder he was never able to express his feelings straightforwardly when he belittles them so much
but he can’t stand not having anything either, so he does… whatever he does instead to get any scraps of attention he can, from someone he's convinced doesn't care about him at all
only showing affection when till can't see it, right until he knows he's going to die
but ivan's feelings for till are all he still has of himself... to think of them as shallow...
I've seen this translated as "I should've been kinder" to him (till) or to her (sua)
but really, the one he should've been kinder to was himself

The LAYERS needed in a modern/human Dreamling au. Some level of Endless family dysfunction, obviously. Hob's family can be be dead or not, it's all good. Are they old enough to have individually gained the awareness they are off-puttingly intense and should hide it a bit at first, or still in that "no, why would I need to Elsa this" stage?
Option A is both of them trying to play it cool, like "don't scare him off" except they so badly want to go from zero to sixty.
(Death and Desire have ruthlessly drilled Dream with flashcards about how to react appropriately in situations.
Desire: it's your one-month anniversary, what do you do?
Dream: [hesitantly] NOT propose?
Desire and Death, conferring, because that's technically correct but the delivery was suspect.
Death, encouragingly: Good start. And?
Dream: a nice dinner and maybe a walk?
Desire: well done!
Death: and for a three-month anniversary?
Dream: give them a key to my flat.
Desire: [airhorn] NO. RED CARD.)
Option B makes them the classic anecdotal "my grandparents got engaged within seven days of meeting each other and still are happy together".
(Death, rubbing her temples: so you met this guy--
Dream: Hob
Death: -- Hob, and within 1 day you gave notice to the Registrar's Office and figured out the best day to get married. And Hob agreed to this?
Dream: NO.
Death: oh thank go-
Dream: Hob SUGGESTED this.
Death: . . .
Dream: are you going to be a witness or not?
Death, 29 days later in the Registrar's Office, to Hob's witness: Is he sane?
Johanna Constantine, drinking heavily from a large flask: unfortunately yes, by all legal definitions.
Death: fuck
Johanna: [passing the flask over] if your brother's even a tenth as intense as Hob, they'll be fine. Probably.
Death, brightening: Is Hob that bad?
Johanna: You know how sometimes you meet somebody and think "oof, they're a bit much, best give them a wide berth"?
Death: yeah.
Johanna: Hob's like a camouflaged hole in the ground of muchness. Except he's done the hole up all nice and he knows that sometimes you just want to be left alone in the hole to sulk and rattle the spikes for a bit, and occasionally get a F&M hamper tossed in.
Death: [hmmmmmmm'ing approvingly]
Johanna, morose: the bastard.
In the background, Hob and Dream are pressing their foreheads together and basking in each other's presence)

you know, I actually think the moment byleth steps in front of that blow meant for edelgard, an action that changes EVERYTHING about their fate, really is monumental, especially after warriors came out and added context
you have this mercenary who’s known for being stone cold, emotionless, and who can annihilate entire mercenary camps in minutes blank faced, as we saw with shez - by all means, they should never, WOULD never take a blow like that so carelessly for someone they don’t even know, much less with such an angry, determined expression - and yet.
the game draws some clear parallels between byleth and edelgard, and in all routes they have a connection that seems unbreakable - all of this starts at that very moment, when the merciless demon gets swept by a wave of emotion so strong that they throw rationality out of the window.
idk, one of my favourite fe3h analyses mentions the ‘literal divine intervention triggered by edelgard’ and that’s exactly what that moment is. not even because of sothis, but because that’s exactly when byleth takes their first step towards humanity and their freedom - i honestly think that byleth only fully regaining their humanity in crimson flower is the only outcome that makes sense, since that’s exactly what we see in one of the first scenes in fe3h. excellent foreshadowing, I’d say

PLEASE DO NOT TAG AS YOUR OWN OC OR PAIRING.
Nathan and Ruben share a bond more powerful than most; mutual understanding through past experiences no one should ever have to go through, and through past actions so horrible they cannot be spoken of. Their grief and the blood on their hands binds them to the STEM technology they created, which has alienated them from the rest of the world— but they give each other the comfort they have both longed for so desperately for years, and that is all they need.
They are each other's counterpart; you cannot imagine one without the other, like two sides of the same coin. Through their pain, their grief, their desire, and their regret, they have become one.
