It's always a little difficult to plan the perfect birthday, let alone the perfect birthday gift when one's mora doesn't quite live up to the name he has made for himself throughout Sumeru, Teyvat for all that matter. But of course, what would an architect be without his creativity (and horrible sleep schedule) than yet another fool unwilling to go a little extra further to ensure that there'll at least be something offered to the charming smile he loves so dearly, hands tucked firmly around Kaeya's as Kaveh guides him into the studio they have spent so many hours within.
"Don't, don't open your eyes," he pleads warmly as he steps backwards into the studio, glancing back at the setting behind him.
Surely, Kaeya can already smell the dishes prepared as well as the wine lingering in the air. Potentially the flowers Kaveh has gathered and arranged into various bouqets, but a part of him hopes that he does not smell them, at least not yet; " just a little further, okay, I promise it will be all worth it, at least... I hope it is? I wasn't sure what to figure out for your birthday as you keep telling me that you - watch your step - already have everything you could've asked for, so," and he'd guide him further, onto a blanket sprawled on the floor of the studio where he soon enough tells Kaeya to sit.
Sit and don't peek, not yet.
For there are still some things he needs to put in order, some smaller gifts that need to be in order such as the box he gathers from the counter of the kitchen before scurrying back over to him. Jewlery clinks as Kaveh positions himself in front of Kaeya, knees tucked under him as he places the box in the other's lap so freed hand can reach upwards and caress his cheek.
"Open your eyes," and in doing so there'd be possibly hundreds of flowers put neatly around the room, some put as decorations dangling from the roof, the entire studio dimmed with a few lanterns lighting it up; "I know you're not too fond of the sand in your clothes, and I for one don't enjoy the bugs during the evening so I wanted to bring the beautiful sight of nature inside with us, and... I wasn't quite sure what to get you as a gift, but I hope that the contents of the box is enough."
Once opened, there'd be a key within (to no other place than the studio, a welcoming gift for the captain to come and go as he'd please) alongside an earring crafted in a similar manner to the one Kaveh wore. Though, where his sported red and green, Kaeya's held bright, beautiful blue and purple, polished brightly.
"Happy birthday," he'd add in a hushed whisper, smiling as he'd lean over to offer a kiss against his cheek; "I hope I made the earrings in the right size, I forgot to measure them."

      Two surprises in one day ? First Beorn, now Kaveh. It makes him chuckle, even as he tries to keep his balance as Kaveh guides him. He hadn’t been kidding when he told the love of his life that he had everything he wanted. There’s nothing physically he needs for his birthday. Kaveh’s kisses ? Maybe being able to spend the rest of his life by the architect’s side being silly and in love ? Heh, he likes the thought of just being old and grey with Kaveh. Archons, even grey, Kaeya is sure Kaveh would be fucking stunning. ❝ ━ I’m sure it’s more than worth it.❞ What Kaveh will come to understand about Kaeya is that the very thought that the architect put something together for him at all ? That he thought of him ? That would always be worth it to the Captain, it was almost enough to make him emotional. 
The subtle scent of flour puzzles him, but the smell of food ? His mouth waters. He’s so ready to eat whatever it is he’s smelling. Like right now. Oh. Something is placed in his lap and he leans into the hand caressing his cheek, nuzzling his lover’s palm for a brief second with a content hum. At Kaveh’s prompting, lone eye looks around, realizing the reason he’d been smelling flora and it was gorgeous.❝ ━ This is… ❞ Even inside, it reminded him of being outside, by the water, surrounded by nature and oh, it was incredibly thoughtful and creative. The Captain takes it in, the emotions bubbling up in his chest threatening to choke him.
❝ ━ You did all of this for me ?  ❞ It’s truly the thought of Kaveh arranging this flora, bringing the beauty of nature inside for both of them to enjoy that really makes him emotional, the ball in his throat tightening. ❝ ━ You don’t have to convince me you adore me, y’know ? This is enough to make me chain myself to your– ❞ He pauses as he opens the box in his lap, brow wing upward. Fingers curl around the key, thumb brushing over it as he looks from said key to Kaveh then back again. Oh. ❝ ━ Really ? ❞ His voice cracks and the Captain has to clear his throat. A key to Kaveh’s studio ? It’s a show of trust, and it brings tears to Kaeya’s gaze, swallowing past the emotion choking him. But no less than the earring that he picks up out of the box.They’re gorgeous.
Placing the items back in the box, he sets it to the side, ❝ ━ These gifts, the thought you put behind all of this ? It was more than worth it, in fact, it was more than I could have asked or hoped for. Thank you, Kaveh, for making this a memorable birthday. ❞ Hands reach out to cradle Kaveh’s features, pulling him in for a tender kiss,a smile on his lips as one kiss turns to two, pressing his forehead to the architect’s, ❝ ━ I really love the earrings, I’ll probably never take them off. As for the key ? It means a lot that you trust me with that, I won’t break your trust in me. Now, are you going to feed the birthday boy or will I have to put out more kisses? ❞ He murmurs, cheekily.

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.
#katniss everdeen#the hunger games trilogy#the hunger games#primrose everdeen#hunger games#batcavescolony reads the hunger games#suzanne collins#'now it seems i have become someone precious' NOW? GIRL BFFR you're their hunter girl#and this isn't negative just bffr girl#your WHOLE DISTRICT did the three finger salute that you yourself says means admiration thanks and goodbye to someone you love and on top is#old a rarely used. your WHOLE DISTRICT decided in that moment that they needed to bring back this sign of respect for YOU#...................................................................#idk why some people are thinking i mean this as negative i don't she is unreliable but its not intentional. like when Peeta heart stoped in#CF she doesn't know what Finnick is doing at first cus she doesn't know off the top of her head what cpr is. she also thinks Peeta after the#reaping is acting for the cameras. he isnt we dind out later his mom basically told him Katniss was gonna win and he would die. obviously#shes not doing it on purpose shes just for lack of better words uneducated? as in she doesn't know everything shes not omnipotent#so when Plutarch (? second games guy) shows her his mokingjay hiden watch shes like *wtf that's weird?* then the people traveling to#district 13 show her the mockingjay cookie and explains it and she then goes on the difference between his watch and their cookie#and why does eveyone act as if district 12 is as bad as the capital? they CANT help Katniss and Prim in the way you want. they cant give#them food. none of them have any! and im not putting iton Katniss but they hid they needed food so they could stay together. it sounds like#some of you are in this our world mentally of what people do after a loved one dies (brings food constantly checks on them etc) district 12#cant do that. they dont have food and they're all suffering. you cant give someone food when you have none to give. then theirs the fact#that peeta DID help. Peeta buring the bread and tossing some to her then taking a beating from his mom is a HUGE thing in the books.#he used his resources to help her like you all said someone should.#district 12 DID (rip) care about Katniss before the hunger games. why do you think she was allowed to hunt? or how her trades were good#these are the little ways 12 can shows Katniss they love her. but again Katniss doesn't see this and YES its because she had ptsd before the#hunger games as well. i swear some of you make it seem like d12 was all living a life of luxury and glaring down at Katniss.#other things that show Katniss is in hight standing with at least her people of d12 is her dad was known enough through d12 for peeta dad to#comment on his singing along with his commenting on her mom. also her mom is a healer in the community. yeah her parents arnt the top but#of d12 but they are/were definitely high staning in the Seam.

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.
to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:
kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him
#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#kabru#kabru already added laios as a discord friend. everyone else in the server can see laios excitedly asking kabru to go with him#what would You even Do in this situation. how would YOU feel?#basically: kabru isnt a laios-hater! hes just in shock bc Thats His Trauma. the key part is kabru still says yes#bc he wants to get to know laios. to understand why laios would be so fascinated by something horrific to him#and ALSO bc even while in shock kabru can still tell laios has unique expertise + knowledge that Could be used for Good#even if kabru doesnt fully trust laios yet (bc kabru just started talking to the guy 2 hours ago. they barely know each other)#kabru also understands that getting to know ppl (esp laios) means having to get to know their passions. even if it triggers his trauma here#but thats too much to fit in this metaphor/analogy. this is NOT an AU! its not supposed to cover everything abt kabru or laios' character!#its a self-contained metaphor written Specifically to be more easily relatable+thus easy to understand for general ppl online#(ie. assumed discord users. hence why i said (a non-specific) 'discord server' and not something specific like 'car repair subreddit')#its for ppl who mightve not fully grasped kabru's character+intentions and think hes being mean/'chaotic'/murderous.#to place ppl in kabru's shoes in an emotionally similar situation thats more possible/grounded in irl experiences and contexts.#and also for the movie punchline#mynn.txt#dm text#crossposting my tweets onto here since my friends suggested so

Ratatouille would have been a better and potentially much more interesting story if Remy had partnered with Collette instead of Linguini. Two underdogs with talent and passion forced to maintain a dangerous ruse. Fiercely independent Collette giving up temporary control of her body to a creature who, despite the insanity of a rat wanting to cook professionally, she can relate to on a personal level and who she does want to teach. The inner conflict of wondering if Remy’s growing talents are eclipsing her own, if the praise their food is earning belongs more to him than to her. Her guilt over feeling resentment and jealousy towards this little guy who wouldn’t have a hope of realizing his talents if not for her trust and protection. Both of them unraveling the mystery of that sweet but bumbling kitchen boy with the obvious crush on Collette being Gusteau’s secret son, and working together to thwart the new evil owner’s plans to stop Linguini from claiming his birthright. The message of the movie not being this weird, almost smug “some people are born with talent, some people aren’t, and that’s how being a ~great artist~ works”, but something more like, “if you have a dream, you deserve to pursue it, and be supported and encouraged in your pursuit of it, even if other people tell you that, because of some intrinsic aspect of yourself or the circumstances you were born in (like being a human woman in the restaurant industry, or being a literal rat), you have no place pursuing this dream. Also, raw talent can only get you so far, and skill and passion existing in the right balance is key.” I’ve been thinking about this for seventeen years. I’m breaking my silence

Robotnik saying that he's undesirable to all genders made me realize that he didn't ignore Stone's affection because he doesn't care about him but because he just simply didn't believe that anyone could love him and thought that Stone was only pretending to care about him as a part of his job.

Empurata!Prowl tries to actually communicate for the first time
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
What if he wants to say something but he can’t. What if he has no voice to speak, no face to emote, no hands to write. What if every attempt to communicate a message is essentially a puzzle of wit and creativity and yet, the first thing he goes through all these troubles for. Is to say “I love you”?
Don’t ask me how did they get in this room. I have no idea. They escaped the battlefield somehow haha

doylist explanation for why Gidel is only in Fellow's non-idle lesson animations: probably something about space constraints and making sure two sprites in one seat aren't covering anyone else when they're not in focus
watsonian explanation for why Gidel is only in Fellow's non-idle lesson animations: he snuck in and is hiding from the teachers, don't give him away 🤫
(I've reached my limit of unsuccessful attempts at pulling them before I need to save keys for Halloween, so I've been living vicariously through youtube videos...but the fact that Gidel just pops up from under the desk to wave his arms around happily is really testing my resolve. D: I'm gonna die when they finally get to do alchemy...)

on a completely separate note; shizun luo binghe with a disciple shen yuan who fell into the abyss??? *thinks about LBH canonically stealing SQQ's corpse for 5 years* he'd hallucinate i think. like, like visual and audial hallucinations.
Keeps thinking he's seeing SQQ in the corner of his eyes, or wandering between the trees, amongst a group of disciples. Thinks he hears him calling for him, but its just the wind or another disciple.
Gets Xiu Ya reforged but patently fucking refuses to make a sword mound. Because his disciple Is Not Dead :))) There was No Body. He's Not Dead. And If You keep Insisting That He Is, He's Gonna Skewer You :). He's holding onto Xiu Ya so he can return his most favored disciple's sword when he returns. It's on his hip right next to Zheng Yang where it's supposed to be.
Also this motherfucker?? does not sleep btw. He has the image of SQQ, wide eyed and hysterical and standing at the mouth of the abyss burned into his fucking eyelids. Can't use the dreamscape to escape it either because he keeps trying to save him and either he does and it's an incredibly cruel trick to wake up to, or he doesn't and he gets his heart broken in several different pieces again.
There is no convincing this man that Shen Qingqiu is dead. Absolutely nothing at all. He is buried so deep in denial that moles would be jealous of how deep he is. He keeps making tea for two in the bamboo house only to remember that it's just him. SQQ's fans are hiding everywhere, little reminders of his presence. He goes to wake up SQQ on the mornings he sleeps in-- only to find the room empty.
#svsss#luo binghe#svsss au#scum villain#scum villian self saving system#shen yuan#shen qingqiu#disciple shen yuan#lbh. visibly exhausted and with twitchy eyes: im fine :) | everyone else: ho no the fuck you ARENT.#SQQ was hysterical not because he found out LBH was half-demon but bc he was having a long-awaited mental breakdown over his autonomy :)#or (limited) lack thereof. he was having a sudden onset crisis of mortality and was handling at quite literally the WORST time. oops#im thinking very hard that LBH would never push his disciple into the abyss especially with no system to force him to. so SQQ either#had to goad him into it (failing always) or throw himself in. he ended up doing it himself but not before some very impressive hysterics.#BUT ALSO. IF THIS HAD BEEN WHERE SQQ WAS THE HALF-HEAVENLY DEMON INSTEAD IT WOULD'VE BEEN SO GREAT.#and by great i mean horribly angsty bc SQQ is NOT doing too hot and has. in very SY-like fashion. convinced himself that LBH will kill him#when he finds out he's a demon. so when it comes out i have this mental image of him lunging at LBH and LBH flinches back. but SQQ wraps hi#hands around the blade of Zheng Yang and yanks it up so the tip of the blade is digging into his chest where is heart is. LBH can't yank th#sword away without risking slicing into SQQ's hands. SQQ's hair has fallen out of its tail/bun and is now messily spilling down his#back and its NO helping the kinda deranged look he has going on. he's visibly shaking and his eyes keep flittering away and back at LBH's#face. SQQ is looking at the messages from the system warning him that he has to go into the abyss or punishment will occur. he's like.#rambling though. talking about how shizun doesn't *like* unclean things and there is nothing more unclean than a demon. like he is#INSISTING. LBH can't?? get a fucking word in. actually. SY isn't listening that much either anyways. too overwhelmed with the system and#the amount of stress he's under and his crumbling mental state and the innate and primal desire to live even when he's standing in front of#his own executioner. it all ends with him sitting on the ground at the lip of the abyss with his hair falling in his face. he looks so#unkempt and fallen apart and so distinctly *non-Shen Qingqiu* that LBH feels physically ill over it. tears are streaming down SQQ's face#and despite everything he is smiling. its not a nice smile. its a very frayed falling apart at the seams about to crack smile.#he tells shizun not to worry about staining his blade with this disciple's filthy blood because this disciple will take care of it himself.#and then he falls into the abyss before luo binghe can so much as grab him. the only reason LBh doesn't literally jump in after him is bc#he was numb with shock and the abyss was already closed before he could feel his legs again :]

here's a thought:
tsukishima kei is mean. he complains that you talk too much, laughs when you flunk your tests, and insists that you're clingy. others wonder why you're even with him.
but they don't know that when he tsks at your rambling, he shifts one side of his headphones away to hear your voice. they don't know that even though he teases you for your low test scores, he would stay up late at night just to tutor you till you'd get it right. they don't know that after rolling his eyes at your affection, he places a chaste kiss on your forehead and hides his red face in your hair.
so when they say you deserve better, you laugh at their cluelessness and state with a smile, "he's more than everything i could ever want." and he falls in love with you all over again.
