date started: 7:08PM, february 16th, 2025. date finished: 8:45PM, february 25th, 2025.

The moon cloaks itself amidst the twilight to leave room for the stars to illuminate the sky. Thousands gather closely together to observe the night's events, and whisper gossip that the breeze tells them. A castle, tall enough to hold the heavens and older than most museums, resides within the forest. Its worn stone enjoys the scenery's tranquility, and the surrounding wildlife serves as a reminder of its reason for standing.

There are two occupants in this castle; The legendary Alucard, A.K.A Adrian Țepeș, and you, his lovely wife. You have been married for almost two-hundred years, and there is nothing that you would change about the life that you have built together. You both enjoy travel, so the adventures that you go on together are eternally endless. Adrian has solidified himself into your soul, and he is part of you that you never wish to do without. In moments where you felt like you couldn't go on, his face came to mind and you remembered just how strong you are.

Adrian knows that the connection that you share will last far beyond the relevance of your immortal lives. Not even at the chance of death will your love's resilience waver, for it is a force stronger than any enemy that you have vanquished together. If you were not in his life, then he would not laugh, smile, ponder or explore as much as he has in your company. Adrian Țepeș is not a man who fears much, but the idea that plagues his mind into restlessness is how much darker his world would be without you in it. Imagining a reality where he lives without your rants about all of the things that he wouldn't think twice about, paired with its angelic echo chanting off of the walls of your home would send him into madness, if not for the comfort of your body lying asleep by his side in your shared bed.

Every day that you spend together is a day that you both cherish, and today has felt particularly special. From dawn 'til dusk, you walked through the forest and discovered things that you hadn't noticed before; The different flowers blooming within the grass or unfamiliar streams, for instance. You have lived in this area for some time now, yet when journeying with Adrian, all sorts of new encounters appeared. It was very fulfilling to wander out with him to see what awaited you.

Now, your exciting day has come to a close, and both of you agreed that the best way to wind down before bed was to stargaze together. You stand on one of many bridges of the palace, your hands resting on the cold stone railing while your eyes sparkle just as brightly as the stars you stare at. Adrian stands not far behind you, a smile gracing his pale lips as he admires the great darkness above. Every once in awhile, he will look back at you and treasure the warmth that pools within his chest. Your joy while looking up at the stars is more beautiful than any twinkling light in the sky, and if he spent his night watching you like this instead, then he would be just as content.

Occasionally, you'll point out an exceptionally bright star, or a constellation, and Adrian's eyes will follow where you lead them. You'll tell about the story behind how the constellation was named, and anything else that comes to mind in relation. Being born into a group of Speakers has left a lot of room for you to acquire all sorts of knowledge about a variety of different subjects, and at one point in your life, you found yourself very fascinated with everything related to space. As a result, you did a lot of research on the subject so that you could share it with your family, and anyone crossing your path willing to listen.

Both of Adrian's parents were people of science, so he gathered quite the bounty of information himself, but he would always make an effort to listen to you. No matter how many times you repeat the same tales and facts, he will nod along and asks questions as if it's the first time, just to prompt your endless, passionate rambles. Gaining the opportunity to share your wisdom grants you an ethereal, excitable glow that he will gladly blind himself with, if it means that the last thing he ever sees is your smiling face.

A comforting quiet lingers in the air while you both gaze up at the stars, cherishing the night's delightful weather that provides you the freedom to enjoy this moment together. Sky's stillness suddenly dispels when a star swiftly descends from the shadows, and immediately, it catches Adrian's attention. A blissful, child-like smile graces his lips as he takes a step forward, then points above while announcing, "Look, a shooting star!"

Instantly, your head whips into the direction where Adrian's finger follows, and you see it. Fortunately, before it leaves your view, you are able to make a wish. Many would see it as silly for an over three-hundred year-old vampire to believe in wishing on stars, for you have lived long enough to know that not all myths are true. Regardless, you like the hopefulness that the idea brings; That someone, somewhere is listening, with the goal of helping you achieve your dreams.

Wherever this comet is going, it's in a hurry, for it's leaving as quickly as it came. You squeeze your eyes shut and hold your breath, thinking about what you want most in the world. When you open them, you release the wind trapped inside your throat at the realization that the shooting star has disappeared over the horizon. Disappointment dwells in your heart and on your shoulders briefly before you spin around to look at your husband, whose arm has lowered. His face illuminates with a gentle joy as he gazes into the distance, a display that lightens your disheartenment and replaces it with bliss.

Long ago, you swore that you would commit all of Adrian's smiles to memory, so you take this time to do just that. The radiant expression that he wears is one of wonder, faith and longing, as if he wishes to chase that star to the ends of the Earth. You think that he looks so adorable like this, and you would hate for him to stop, but you become curious as to if he made a wish too, so you ask him, "Did you make a wish, Adrian?"

Blinking out of his awestruck state, golden eyes meet yours. You are so glad that during all of this time, the color of Adrian's eyes never changed. You think that it gives him individuality, and they remind you that through every hardship, you will always have someone at your side to endure it with. Sunshine dims into a soft sadness, which rawly clenches at your heart. Adrian's eyes glance to the ground, a frown on his face while he admits, "Oh, no. I didn't get the chance to."

The vessel which keeps you standing feels like it is being brutally mauled through at this response. Now, Adrian gazes out into the sky with furrowed brows, and your own face falls as his does. While he is skeptical about the idea of wishing on stars, he does find it fun to do sometimes. It didn't even come to mind when he saw it passing by, and seeing just how disappointed he is hurts more than any wound you could ever receive.

You use your quick-thinking skills to come up with something to cheer the dhampir up, when it hits you. You have been studying human magics for one-hundred years, and while you are quite skilled, you do not practice enough to fully achieve your true potential. Typically, you only use your magic on occasion when you're bored to make fun shapes, or when you're in combat with no other choice, but this is just as vital- no, even more-so. This is more dire than any foe that you have vanquished, more monstrous than any beast you have slain; Your sweet husband is sad, and as his wife, you want to make him feel better!

So, you cup your palms together and hold them out in front of you. Adrian notices the shift of your body, and turns to watch as you close your eyes. You focus on your desire, and think about the way that a star feels. You feel a tickling sensation spring its way up your back, as if stardust brushes your skin. Slipping into a deep state of concentration, you reflect on your early studies of magic when a yellow spark erupts into your hands. Adrian watches with fascination while the spark begins to brighten; It begins to take shape, until a thin, golden diamond glows in your grasp.

Adrian is completely blown away by your demonstration, his mouth hung open and eyes gawking widely at what you've just created. You open your eyes and smile at the dumbfounded look on your husband's face, giggling. "Make a wish, Adrian."

Realistically, you both know that this isn't what a star looks like, but that doesn't matter to your man. What matters to him is that it's yours, and it's perfect. For a moment, Adrian is silent, too bewildered by your manifestation to summon his voice. He knows that you are a very talented magician, and he has seen your capabilities at their finest. The fact that you have forged something so precious just to make him happy deeply touches Adrian. A smile adorns the man's face once more, eyes holding a love that is reserved only for you. He reaches a hand over to the side of your face to allow gloved fingers to graze your skin while he leans forward, and presses a gentle kiss to your lips.

You watch as he melts before you, your smile growing wider when seeing that he's happy again. Unexpectedly, he gives you a kiss, and this makes you feel even better. Adrian's lips have a very dastardly power to make you weak; One brush of them, and you feel like you could faint on the spot. His lips are soft, and he tastes of the most captivating spell. You would have dropped the illusion and wrapped your arms around him to properly relay your passion, if you didn't know how meaningful this was to him. Heat crawls its way into your cheeks, and your shoulders have hiked up from surprise, but they slowly lower themselves as you allow your body to relax. You return his kiss and tilt your head slightly to enhance the experience for both of you, and you stand like this for a moment to cherish how perfectly your lips mold together.

Albeit regrettably, Adrian is the one to back away. The sun of his eyes shines brightly with admiration, and the smile on his lips is tender. "I don't need to," He murmurs sweetly.

Seeing this look on the dhampir's face is everything that you could want out of tonight. You have shared a wonderful day together, but this has been the best part of it by far. A crooked grin curls its way your lips, and you give him a knowing look when you decide to tease him, "If you say it's because you have everything you could wish for right here, I'm going to hit you."

Adrian's posture straightens as he throws his head back to laugh. Light blooms within your chest at the sound, one that you would listen to every hour for all of your days if given the chance. Tilting his head upright, he meets your eyes and responds, "Alright, I hear you." Then, he leans over to examine the star in your hands more closely, asking, "Could we save it?" Your husband aligns himself upright again, reuniting your gaze to his while adding, "For my next wish."

You smile at the man, head slightly tilted while fondly gazing at him. Any request of his is one you will gladly satisfy, so you tell him, "I think I can do that."

The look on your face causes Adrian to soften, his shoulders noticeably relaxing a bit more at the sight. "Good." He then turns so that his side faces you, and offers an arm for you to take. "Shall we head to bed now?"

You squeeze your eyes shut and press your lips together harshly, charging all of your energy into the little splendor in your hands before hopping up. With your little bounce, the star shoots up into the sky, stardust hot on its trail, before it lowers down to settle itself floating slightly above you and Adrian. The dhampir turns around to recognize what you've done, that same stupefied expression on his face. You see it and laugh, an arm coming over your stomach as you take a step back and point at him. You gather yourself shortly after, and brush away any lingering dust on your clothes before you turn to face where Adrian is to take his arm. "Let's go."

It's only when you make contact with him that your husband comes out of his shock, his face relaxing when seeing yours and a smile decorating his lips. "As you wish."

With that, you head into the castle to begin your nightly routine. The star you created twirls around you both the entire way, and you laugh at mystical friend's enthusiasm. Love has brought you two a long way, and you guarantee that it will take you even farther. In every life, you know that Adrian would do anything to make you happy, and he knows that you would do the same.

𓂂 ˚ ☆ ꙳ * ࣭ 𓂂 ˚ ☆ ꙳ Whispers and Wonders - Geto Suguru

warning: idk what or why or if it makes sense. hurt/slight comfort(?) word count: 0.7k

The silence felt ever-consuming, engulfing, pitiable.

The blood on his hands was fresh, his regret presentably amiable, your horror - expected.

-

“How long will you be gone?” you’d muttered as an after-thought fingers braiding through his hair - a hobby, barely conscious.

“Might be a couple of days?”

“Oh…okay,”

Last thing you spoke, last thing he heard from you - a hundred million left unsaid.

-

There on, you wondered often, why you didn’t bother - and you wondered further, why didn’t he open up? 

You talked and talked and talked, to yourself - he was gone, it was done, you couldn’t get yourself to blame yourself, it felt too much, and when this happened - you did, for a sliver of a second, understand him.

You couldn’t blame yourself and blaming the rest felt tiring.

-

There on, Suguru wondered seldom, he thought of you less, less of your voice, lesser still that smile and least of all, the hurt you’d caused - for it felt overbearing after a point, defending you in his head, it felt against every fibre of his body to find love for you. He was unable to let you go, his mind was forceful, heart?

Another wonder in itself.

-

“Suguru Geto murdered an entire village.”

The words felt haunting, for a second you’d almost laughed at the absurdity - surely there had been a mistake - suguru?

A when would slip you lips absentmindedly, later when you stared at the ceiling of your empty room, Suguru’s side warmed by your presence, you’d wonder again if that was the same sort of empty you’d offered Suguru.

A why would slip Satoru’s lips, you’d shrug - how did it matter running through your mind momentarily, and you’d wonder as the blanket sized you up, it felt so hot and yet - so so cold, your entire body lay. And as you rubbed your feet in a desperate attempt to warm yourself you’d wonder if this detached state you’d lead yourself and suguru to had been a cause.

You’d fall asleep then, wondering further if warming yourself in the blanket had somehow had you more invested instead.

-

“Join me,” suguru had approached Satoru so far, Nanami and Shoko, all in vain - he didn’t bother with you, he knew the answer.

He did however approach you regardless, with a proposition different entirely.

100 villagers - 2 girls and a bloodied man, not physically, but you saw it in every breath.

“Hello,” you greeted then as normal—acknowledging the girls as easily as you acknowledged Suguru’s wide eyes, almost more homely than the relation had felt in its later stages.

but the truth was bare - you’d never broken up - Suguru came back.

“You took longer than a couple of days,” you mumbled, eyes dazed as you cooked tea for him, warmed milk for the girls.

Days? It had been 5 months, 13 days and 21 hours since you’d last met.

“I’m sorry,” you could hear the shaky throat - the lick of his lips, “i got caught up,”

After that, it was silence again - he didn’t ask you for nothing, you didn’t offer anything. 

No i love yous, no i missed yous.

The silence was soft, the girls sat in front of you one by one, suguru sat beside you - the blood on his hands was fresh still, in memory, your regret tangible, it didn’t matter, he was home. 

“Will you be gone again?” you finally whispered as an after thought, fingers braiding through the little brunette’s hair, “i will come back,” he whispered back, his head coming to rest on your shoulder - it felt needed, the embrace.

The ceiling of your wall seemed smaller now, the blanket wouldn’t be needed either.

“In a couple of days?"

“Just ask me to stay this time,”

You nodded, he grasped the hem of your shirt, he felt small now, younger, child-like, you’d realised quickly, the toll those 6 months had taken on him.

“please.”

All of this work is original and entirely my own please refrain from copying or reposting.

Hi angels (this is gonna be long)

I ramble because when I feel big feels I don't think straight, but please read 🤍

I'm posting this now because I just need to get it out. This has been weighing heavily on me. But I doubt anyone will read it hahah

This is really hard for me to say, but after a lot of thought, I’ve decided to wrap up some things I have left, complete some more requests and step back from writing anything new—at least for now.

I’ve been contemplating this for a while, trying to push past the feeling, but I’ve reached a point where I can’t ignore it anymore. Writing has been such a joy for me, and I’ve loved being part of this little community. You all welcomed me with open arms, and I can’t express how much that means to me.

Honestly, I don’t think I’m in the right mental space for it right now. As much as I love creating, I’ve found myself constantly doubting my work, comparing my writing to others and thinking that I can do so much better, and overthinking every detail. It’s a cycle I’ve fallen into on my own, and it’s taken a toll. On top of that, I feel like my blog has lost some of its spark, and my writing isn’t going anywhere and not growing. I’ve also gotten some nasty anons the past few weeks that I ignore but they still haven’t helped with my thoughts. 🫠

With my final semester of college also weighing on me, everything feels like it’s piling up. So, I think I just need a short break. Ew I feel like I sound so insecure. I think I’m just too hard on myself, especially when I get overwhelmed and burnt out.

I feel really guilty stepping away after working so hard to build this space and gaining so much support. The last thing I want is to let anyone down. But right now, this is what I need.

Please stick with me and don't forget me.

That said, I truly love being here, and I don’t think I can stay away for too long. Honestly, I might still post every now and then if I feel inspired. I also won’t be going completely dark - I want to stay engaged and continue supporting the amazing people I’ve met here. I’d love for my moots to keep me updated on their posts, and I’ll still be around to chat.

Sorry if none of this makes sense. I really hate that I've gotten to this point. I still have some things I want to complete and then I plan to take some time off from writing. But I will be around. We can still interact. I don't want to completely lose what I have here. 🤍

I want to go through some more requests and I have a couple of parts left of The Pen Pal. I like to finish what I’ve started and I’m committed to that. I'm posting this and I have a couple of drafts ready to post tonight and then going to take a break for a day or 2 after posting this (because I feel awful and I want to avoid it)

I’m hoping that this will bring me some relaxation but I’m also hoping it will bring me some inspiration too. I have a series I’d love to restart and a lovely anon gave me a great idea for a JJ AU I’d love to do at some point. I hope those ideas would excite you just as much too.

I think right now it will just be a couple of weeks off just from writing. To refresh, heal my mind, and finally breathe. I’ve already expressed it slightly in some posts but I’ve been really thinking about it.

I already can’t wait to be back because this community has been so good to me. I appreciate every single one of you. What’s that corny saying? It’s not goodbye it’s see you later? I love you guys, and I’ll make another post when I officially take my break.

I HOPE THIS MAKES SENSE. IT ALL DOES IN MY HEAD. JUST A LITTLE BAD AT EXPRESSING MYSELF.

I wanna thank everyone who has supported my writings and I LOVE every single one of you.

I also wanna thank some of my moots! You all have helped me incredibly since I've joined. You're all so kind hearted and probably the best group of people I've ever connected with on the internet. I’m still here so please don’t stop tagging me or reaching out, I’ll still support all of you when I’m on a break. Forgive me if I'm forgetting anyone- not really thinking right now. But this goes for all my moots. 🤍

Idk if you're looking for an excuse or not but I'd love to see and/or hear about ur Rick and Morty some more :)

this is more of a meta discussion, but i think it's kind of interesting how a lot of rick and morty's dynamic is reliant on the show being a sitcom. like it only exists in this complex, contradictory manner because Rick and Morty the show doesn't always take itself too seriously, especially in earlier seasons. the show's sense of humor is very cold, apathetic and dry, which leads to the characters also acting in cruel ways, but because the show is a sitcom with a status quo, it makes the characters seem codependent and clingy for retaining that status quo. like with rick and morty's dynamic specifically, it's just years of abuse and yet when given a choice, morty doesn't leave. then you have to wonder, within the context of the show, why a character would behave in such a clearly self-destructive manner. in reality their dynamic exists kind of unintentionally. it's not that i don't think rnm writers in the earlier seasons wouldn't have been open to exploring more deep and complicated aspects of their relationship, but it very clearly wasn't something they prioritized. to be fair, they still kind of don't at this point in the show though, i kind of wish the complexities of rick and morty's dynamic had been kept as this implicit detail, because season 5's finale explored it in the most surface level, half-hearted way ever. it's kind of why i'm scared for future seasons as well, because the show is in this weird middle ground where it still wants to appeal to a mainstream audience (who watch rick and morty because it's funny, not because they want to think too hard about abuse and why abusive people act the way they do), while also trying to appeal to, i guess, more Tumblr-ish people (who like to explore angst and the intricacies of bad friendships).

Pteranodon then 🫵😡

so we're gonna ignore that this ask has been sitting in my inbox for two and a half weeks. actually. <3 <3 <3

Pteranodon - Favorite ship(s) and why?

if we're talking in terms of just writing alone, then yasammy would be my favorite ship! anybody who says that yasammy came out of nowhere is either blind or homophobic LMAO (probably both lbr). the development of their relationship just felt so right, the only thing that had me doubting if the writers would ever really go there was the issue of censorship. i also love how, for a friends-to-lovers type deal, the writers have never shied away from throwing in some conflict (sammy's "betrayal," yasmina pushing sammy away as to protect her own feelings, etc etc). it's kept yasammy's relationship from getting stale, and makes them coming back together all the more satisfying.

buttttttttt if we're talking in terms of "which ship makes me the most Insane" then. i mean. *gestures to my entire blog* it's unfortunate but we know. we all know.

🦖✨ JWCC/CT ask game!

I forgot to do my shot for a couple of weeks, whoops. but it's always so wild to me how calm and centered I feel afterwards. not having T makes me feel neurotic and all over the place. I can always tell when it's time to do my shot because the day before I get a little irritable.

[deevotee]

I'm not even caught up on the man ga but I've seen so many spoilers and can't stop thinking about it:

1st off, here's what I know

The basics of finny coming to the manor have already been shown, and finny has been in both mey rins and bards flashbacks

Next to sebastian, finny is arguably the MOST loyal person in ciels life like I truly believe that, to the point where he is willing to even go against sebastian himself for ciel

We don't know anything about snake pre-circus, and we don't know much of finny pre being found

SO what I think is going to happen as far as flashbacks go;

I don't think finnys loyalty will be questioned but I do think snakes will, mainly when he finds out the truth of the circus trope

I think well see snakes backstory possibly first, with him being upset over everyone who's given him a family lying to him, and trying to figure out what he's supposed to do as someone who's (likely) been considered such an outcast and had horrible things done to him for so much of his life

I think it would be a good place for finny to explain more of his past and the horrible things that were done to him and segway it into the family he's found as a phantomhive servant, and that snake could still be apart of that family

I don't have thoughts about how the orphanage storyline itself will go tbh, but i just couldn't stop thinking about how the flashbacks were mainly done so far and how that could work with two people needing background stories told this time around

[jesterwaves]

i miss tv shows. its a shame they dont make them anymore.
