the mindset journey
So hi.
My mindset has been evolving a lot ever since I started this journey, and I thought I'd lay it all out in one post. Subliminals, mindless affirming, scripting, visualization, states. I've tried so many things out, and I think I've finally figured out what works for me.
TLDR:
Stop âtryingâ to manifest or checking the 3d, you already have full results, creation was over like since forever.
Sure you know that youâre God, as the posts and everything youâve seen tells you, but have you really embraced that internally?
It doesnât matter how many posts you read, itâs up to you to actually change your mindset.
Logic is literally useless, be delusional (donât you just wanna go ape-shit :), go get your fucking desires)
Time is not linear, and means nothing when manifesting.
Revision is so powerful, use it.
Itâs just so easy guys, please just make sure youâre actually applying the information you see instead of just passively scrolling through.
And the rest is under the cut, happy reading <33
I started off in the subliminal community in Oct 2020 and just had so many limiting beliefs, it was sad. Not to shit on the community or anything, some of them are wonderful people and most of them have changed their mindset as well, but my initial knowledge prevented me from getting to this point until now. But, now Iâm here, and a day after I wrote this in my drafts, I literally manifested my ideal life. I originally started this blog to collect advice from loa blogs, but honestly, I donât need any of it anymore. Though I do like helping people, so if you have any questions, feel free to shoot me an ask.
The Initial Mindset:
I always read through countless posts that say âYouâre Godâ and âYou literally can get what you want without even trying.â While I understood the text and adopted the mindset, I still did little subconscious things that contradicted it. While I affirmed my self-concept was perfect, I would also cram-study for exams and worry I would fail. I would say I look perfect, but then also worry about the way my body looked. Also, the way that I literally became obsessed with loa media? I spent hours watching Sammy Ingram videos, looping subliminals, and reading tumblr posts on âhow to manifest faster and betterâ. During this phase of my life, my mind was plagued with intrusive thoughts and my self-concept was slowly getting better, but still absolute shit. I would manifest things here and there, but nothing life-changing.
The main problem however, was the fact that I would treat manifesting like a task I HAD to do. Now that school was back in session, I literally would zone out during specific classes on purpose and just affirm to myself. I would feel bad if I hadnât listened to my subliminal playlist for the day because I âwasted time in getting my desiresâ. Thereâs nothing wrong with vainly affirming or listening to subs if you believe it works, but for me, treating manifesting like a task meant that I was looking for an outcome. Clearly, now I know better, that everything is always done and that thereâs nothing to complete, but back then, this was probably the main reason why I struggled to see full results easily. I was acting out of desperation and didn't believe manifestation already was done.
When Everything Changed:
I know that itâs different for everyone, but my âaha!â moment was probably when I read this post. Seriously, go read it, it made me realize that I was going about it all wrong. Now, it wasnât learning how to perfect my manifesting, it was learning to pull out the tiny limiting beliefs that had burrowed its way into my subconscious.
For example,
âI need to do xyz so that I can get my manifestations.â
Why would I would need to do anything if I already have all of my manifestations hmm? Itâs literally already done. Like thereâs no need to put in that effort into something thatâs already perfect right? So why do I need to even need to try? I literally get whatever tf I want without even trying. This doesnât mean that every method out there is useless, but in the end, you are the one doing the manifesting, not the method.
âBut... this makes absolutely no logical sense! How would this even work?â
I know that STEM me loves finding the logic behind everything, so thatâs why I struggled a lot with the logic and time aspect. But darling, it doesnât need to make sense. There are literally so many things in the world that scientists to this day canât explain, including just how powerful and complex your brain is. Not to mention the fact that concepts such as logic and science are literally man-made too? Whatâs the point in trying to deal with logic? Just let go and have fun.
âI affirmed so hard, and I believed it. But then it never showed up when the time came.â
First off, your time spent affirming means nothing, sorry to break it to you. Itâs about the mindset(your state if you will) you currently exist in that truly makes a difference. And just because it didnât show up today doesnât mean that you missed your window of opportunity. Revision is still manifesting, because time is not a linear concept. Anything at any time can just change with a snap of your fingers. You want to change all of your test scores? Bam, itâs done. you wish WW2 never happened? Bam, itâs done. You want to relive the past 5 years of your life? Bam, itâs done. It doesnât matter what the event is, what time it is, or that you âdidnât do it before the deadlineâ. Whenever you do get it(which is instant/soon if you're persisting properly), it will be there, seamlessly blended in with your 3d. You donât need to worry about a damn thing, your subconscious will take care of everything for you.
âOh no! I just had intrusive thoughts, did I just mess up my manifestations?â
Why are you giving intrusive thoughts the power to do anything? Sure, you may get them, but that doesnât mean that they have any effect on you. Itâs the doubt they make you feel in your mindset that truly messes it up. Donât give in. Acknowledge the thought, accept that it literally means nothing, and continue to persist. Your thoughts only have the power you give them.
âNah, everyone has to be lying, this doesnât seem real.â / âManifesting must just be a coincidence, thereâs no way this is real.â
Oh? So youâre saying, the amount of posts youâve seen, all of the success stories, all of the followers and comments, are you saying every single one of them is lying? No. Iâm not saying that every single one of them is truthful, but thereâs no way that every single one of them would lie and put this much work into something thatâs not real. If you find yourself struggling to believe in the law, Iâd suggest you try to manifest something small, and then build up your belief from there. I sure as hell didnât believe in any of this from the beginning, but then, I manifested consciously for the first time. Again, and again. It became easier, and my life got better. It soon becomes apparent that literally everything you think happens. I always used to wonder how things I randomly thought in the back of my head always happened even though I literally didnât do anything about it in the 3d. This proved to me that your mental state is more powerful than it seems.
âCan I manifest-â
Yes. Just yes. Youâre GOD. GOD. Why tf is God asking some random loa account if they can manifest something or not? Ofc God would know that they can manifest whatever the fuck they want instantly. Do you think when God said âLet there be lightâ, he first asked people around him if he could? No. He took that shit and just fucking ran with it.
âBut-but, what if-â
Uh-uh. I donât want to fucking hear it. Like I said in the previous section, stop overthinking everything you do. Just go. Run with what you already know and manifest the life of your dreams. You donât need to keep looking for new information, some specific post that changes everything for you. All they can do for you is steer you in the right direction. Youâre the one whoâs going to have to figure out our mindset and pull yourself together, no one else can do it. Take back your power, embrace it. I donât care if you unfollow every single loa account or delete tumblr, just stop looking for the next post. Why would you need more information when you already have everything you need?
I wrote down everything I struggled with, forgot about it, and continued to persist in my new mindset. I ignored any negative 3d circumstances, and just vibed in the feeling that my desires were already here, that feeling of contentment someone has when everything in their life is just amazing. The main question I asked myself was, what would a person who had ____ think, and I went from there. Soon the things I wanted just started popping up in my life, just as I knew it would. I feel like the things Iâve said in this post are pretty much the same concepts you see all over loa tumblr, which is why itâs so important that you actively take in the information thatâs being given to you and actually apply it. I was obsessed with tumblr and kept on scrolling through countless blogs and posts, and I was only able to fully manifest after I stepped away from all of that. There is no big secret. Thereâs no miraculous method that will fix everything for you. Thereâs just... you. And your subconscious. Whatever you tell your subconscious, goes. As simple as that.
How about, instead of scrolling to whatever next loa post you were about to see on this app, you close tumblr and just go live your best life? Donât overcomplicate it and just do whatever feels natural to you. I hope this post helped, happy manifesting!

01. and every time you breathe his air, just know i was already there
â now playing: track 01. taste âˇâˇ 0:24 ââââââââââ 2:37
pairing: student council president!yang jungwon x reader(f) cw: controlling relationship (context, (mostly) in the background), lots of swearing (y/n's love language is cursing basically lol), lmk if i missed anything !
synopsis: it has been months since you and jungwon broke up, so it shouldn't bother you if he's dating your bitchy nemesis, but you still can't help but get into catfights with her because you love to get a reaction out of little miss perfect. definitely not because you still have feelings for jungwon, right?
tags: high school au, exes to lovers(?), lowercase intended
author's note: not my best fic as a writer (since i literally wrote most of this in language class) but its become one of my favourites as i've come to love this fic so much because of all the feels and the character personalities, so i hope someway you'll find yourself here <3 ngl won's character is heavily inspired by en-drama because i'm obsessed. my first try at writing for my fav enha boy so i hope i did well !
word count: 2.8k
âbitch, are you actually crazy,â with bright orange soda dripping down your shirt, you let out a slow chuckle, âor are you just mad that you taste me when heâs kissing you?âÂ
âfucking whorâ,â
âthatâs enough for today, girls, leave some energy for the rest of the day,â mrs. kang, the only teacher in the cafeteria, finally stood up from her seat and walked towards the commotion.Â
âyou just earned an hour in detention, you lady.â you couldnât help but smirk when the teacher shot miss. âperfectâ a disapproving glare. âstay back tomorrow and maybe help out the volunteers, make yourself useful for once.âÂ
âbut, uh, mrs. kang, she provoked me! she should be the one getting detention!â it was funny how she thought crushing the soda-can in her hands would deem her as innocent.Â
âmaâam,â you knew you were a trouble-maker, but the only reason teachers trusted you was because you were sincereâ or at least good at pretending you were. âi was only here to have a conversation, but she was the one who assaulted me out of nowhere,âÂ
one of the reasons you maintained a friendly relationship with the teachers was for situations like this.Â
âand you know what maâam, iâm not even mad that she attacked me, but wastage of food? oh, to think a thirsty kid couldâve been drinking that soda, but for it to get wasted on me like that?â
âthatâs enough, y/n; donât think i don't know your antics.â mrs. kang looked at you through her glasses. âanother sentence and youâll be enjoying detention with your best friend here.â
you flashed her a guilty but thankful smile. "of course maâam, i understand.â
âand what are you all looking at? the bellâs about to ring, get back to your classes!â the teacher cursed under her breath, the crowd around you disappearing in an instant.Â
mrs. kang looked around the cafeteria, and her face instantly lit up when she saw bitch #2. âah, yang jungwon! thank god at least someone responsible is here.âÂ
you didnât give him the satisfaction of looking at him, but you sensed him stand taller and simultaneously become smaller at the acknowledgement.Â
âson, please take this menace to the nurseâs room, i donât trust her enough to send her aloneâ god knows what more sheâll end up causing.â you flash mrs. kang a guilty smile. âmeanwhile, you, young lady, come with me to the staff room.â
as you saw miss perfect follow mrs. kang with her tail between her legs, you couldnât help but crack a triumphant smile.Â
âthank you, maâam, iâll remember your kindness for the rest of my life!â you leave the cafeteria, seeing mrs. kang roll her eyes and say something along the lines of âi donât get paid enough for this.âÂ
not waiting for what's-his-face, you make your way towards the nurseâs room to find a spare shirt.Â
ây/n! wait up,â your pace quickens as naturally as possible when you hear his voice, but jungwon easily catches up to you. âare you okay?â
âwhat do you want, yang jungwon?â it takes all effort in you to not look at him.
âhere, take this,â you turned towards him when he offered his coat to you, his fingers slightly gripping your pocket, keeping you in place. with a glare, you take a step back. âyou're drenched, y/n. youâll catch a cold like this.âÂ
âi don't need your charity,â maybe you did feel a chill go through your body, but you'd rather be dead than take help from jungwon. âyou donât have to help me just because a teacher asked you to, mr. president, iâm fine.âÂ
ây/n,â his tone was pleading but assertive. âdonât be like this,, iâm here as your friendââÂ
âdonât even,â you scoffed, an annoyed expression adorning your face.Â
âi thought you were my friend, but the way you have been acting lately tells me anything but. i know things are awkward because we broke up, but is human decency too much to ask for?Â
"iâm not asking you to take sides, but you could'veâ nevermind now. i guess years of friendship goes down the drain just because your pretty little girlfriend canât stand me.â
there goes your shot at being cool and nonchalant.
you didnât mean to say that all, but words came spilling out of your mouth once you made eye-contact with him.Â
jungwon looked shocked, speechless at your unexpected outburst. he took a step back. âi⌠iâm sorry, y/n.âÂ
you felt betrayed at yourself when you felt a pang of disappointment when he walked away.Â
maybe you had expected him to say something? finally clear out all the misunderstandings and go back to how things were before?Â
nonetheless, you also knew you could never go back to being just friends with him, yet you were starting to miss his company, and your aching heart was making it clear that you werenât even a step closer to getting over him.Â
but it didn't even matter now.
you sighed, resuming your journey towards the nurseâs room, your heart growing heavier when you find a bunch of napkins in your pocket where jungwon had touched you. Â
âi mean it was kind of stupid to think mrs. kang would let you off the hook for causing a scene like that,â your best friend smirked, clearly enjoying this.Â
âhey, whose side are you on?â you half-heartedly throw your eraser at her, slumping into your seat. âoh man, i was so excited to go back home and watch the new episode of the drama with you. guess that'll have to wait because apparently dusting books that people will never even read is way more important, i guess."Â
"calm your dramatic ass down," your best friend chuckled, patting your head as you groaned and playfully banged your head on the table. "at least there will be no record of detention on your report."Â
"i guess you're right... but i'll miss you," you blow kisses at her, making her laugh.Â
"whatever weirdo, love you too," she stood up, giving you a smile. "i'll get going then. you better start your work soon if you don't wanna stay back for another hour."Â
"see you soon!" after you wave at her, you stretch out in your chair, giving yourself a pep talk to survive the extra hour of work that was given to you by mrs. kang as "not a punishment, but something that will make you think twice before causing trouble again."Â
although you weren't happy about this, you couldn't help but feel a sense of calm as you entered the library and walked through the many bookshelves, finally situating yourself amidst the very last shelves.Â
life had gotten pretty hectic lately, so having some time in the library, when not a single soul was there, felt like pressing pause and breathing for a moment. you put on your mask, and some music as you half-heartedly start dusting the old books on the shelves.Â
the quiet and solitude was something you longed for, but with nothing better to do, your mind couldn't help but go back to thinking about yang jungwon.Â
maybe you were being irrational with him today, because of course, which guy would choose a friend over his girlfriend? you felt guilty, because you realised it was your selfish feelings that made you act that way.Â
while you were accusing jungwon of not giving efforts to sustain your friendship, what had you been doing?Â
weren't you the one picking the longer route to avoid running into him, or helping random people with their errands whenever he came into the room just to avoid a conversation?Â
but you couldnât bring yourself to face him; not because of the awkwardness, but because you couldnât see him being with his girlfriend.
jealousy was another thing, but you couldnât tolerate the way miss perfect treated himâ it shouldnât matter to you that she didnât understand his niche habits, or that she didnât let him finish his sentences, so you chose to stay quiet instead of making a scene, because you knew it was of no use anyway.Â
âwell, so much for not making a scene,â you groaned, glancing at the too-tight shirt youâd borrowed from the nurseâs office.Â
finally pulled out of your thoughts by the alarm youâd set on your phone, you looked up at the giant clock at the library, and let out a quiet squeal when you noticed an hour was up.Â
as you packed up your phone and belongings and walked towards the front of the library, you were stopped in your tracks as you heard a familiar voice in the otherwise silent room. as you slowly crept towards the front desk, the voice became clearer.
âyes sir, of course. no, i understand. iâll make sure thereâs noâ yes sir, sure. right. thank you, sir, thankâ oof.â yang jungwon slumped into the chair, his voice immediately losing its energy and him looking more tired than ever as he gently placed his phone on a cluttered table.Â
as he closed his eyes and ran his hands through his hair and rubbed his face, it gave you the perfect opportunity to walk by, unnoticed, andâÂ
âwonâ hey, jungwon,â a small, comforting smile crept up on your face, as you slowly made your way towards him. âwhat are you doing here so late.âÂ
your heart fluttered in an act of betrayal when you saw his face instantly light up when he noticed you.Â
ây/n! hey, hi. have a seat,â jungwon smiled, quickly trying to push the various open notebooks and leaflets towards himself to make space for you. âi uh, i just had to stay back for some work for next weekâs event. what about you, whyâre you here so late? everything okay?â
âhaha, yes, mrs. kang just made me do some extra work to make up for today,â you took a seat beside him, both of you facing each other. âbut wait, donât tell me youâre doing work here so late? canât you do it at home?â
âwell, yes and no? the teachers are counting on me to look after everything because, you knowâŚâ he looked sheepish as he scratched the back of his neck, forever uncomfortable about his position as the president of the student council.
âand since most of the things require me to double check with the faculty and the campus, itâs easier to do these things at school. plus, iâll have to take the measurements for the posters and all too, so i was planning to get it over by today itself instead of weighing down someone else with the work,âÂ
âgoddamn, i didnât know you had so much work to do. I could never handle such responsibility,â you let out a slow whistle, but then turned to him with concerned eyes. âit must be hard managing everything. are you okay, though? you can distribute the work between the members, you know? you donât have to shoulder everything.â you gently put your hand on him, making sure he listens.Â
jungwon was the type of person who always took on more work than it was healthy for them to carry out, but he always made sure he completed each and every task with perfection.Â
you knew the boy struggled with being a people pleaser and a perfectionist, so you made sure to remind him to relax and take a breath every once in a while whenever you got the chance.Â
âgiving the work to other people doesnât make you a bad leader, won, it is literally their job to help you. so, chill out a bit okay? and make sure you take breaks in between and notââ
you were interrupted by the soft hum of jungwonâs ringtone, and as you looked down on it, it was almost as if a bucket of cold water was splashed on you as you saw his girlfriendâs name flash on the screen.Â
in an instant, you let go of his hand, your hands reaching up to play with your hair and hopefully hide the red creeping up on your face. âyou⌠you should probably pick that up.â you hoped your smile did not look lopsided.Â
to your surprise, you saw jungwon silence his phone, and place it inside his pocket. âyou were saying?â he gave you a small smile, acting as if nothing had happened.Â
âum, dude, wasnât that your girlfriend?â you sounded confused. âyou shouldâve picked up, iâm okay with it.â
âuh, ex⌠girlfriend.âÂ
âwhat the fuck?â you shrieked in surprise, your face red, both of you looking around to see if anybody heard you. you lowered your voice once again. âbitch what? didnât we just argue like hours ago? because of you? wait, oh my god, donât tell me she broke up with you because of me? oh god, iâm so sorry jungwon, i swear, i never meant toââ
your ramble was cut short when jungwon gently placed his hand over your mouth, chuckling at your wide eyes and flushed cheeks.Â
ây/n, calm down, iâd broken up with her weeks ago,â this dude literally had the audacity to smile after giving you a mini heart attack. âactually⌠it's a pretty long story.â he cringed.Â
âwell i would very much like to know why the fuck iâm wearing some random girlâs shirt if you guys broke up weeks ago?â you huffed; but when you saw his quiet expression, you blushed. âwait, i mean, you donât have to tell me if you donât want to. itâs okay, i was just kidding.âÂ
âNo, y/n, its okay.â jungwon had a weird expression on his face. âitâs just that⌠do you have any idea how much iâve wanted to talk about this, or just talk like this, with you? i missed us.âÂ
âwon,â you were sure your face was permanently red now. âiâm always here, you know that.âÂ
âthanks,â he said. âthe truth is, i wasnât really in a happy relationship with her. i donât know, maybe i didnât want to admit it to myself too, but at some point it just got too suffocating; it was like being with a tyrant.âÂ
though jungwon was trying to play it off with a casual demeanour, you could hear the pain still eminent in his voice. the reason he was so closed off, always so busied by his books or duties, it all made sense now.Â
âi know it sounds weird, but being in a relationship with her felt like i was constantly being criticised and forced to be someone iâm not. i canât always be this perfect, responsible, ideal boy friend, and i felt guilty for trying to put on this fake act of being perfect and iâŚâÂ
you genuinely ached for him, your heart reaching out to the boy who was finally opening his jar of bottled emotions.Â
you wrapped jungwon in a gentle but warm hug, hoping it helps ease him, who was on the verge of breaking down.â
âshh, its okay, won. youâre out of that relationship now, and it takes alot of courage to do that; iâm proud of you, yang jungwon.â
âyou know what the funniest part is, she wasnât willing to break up with me so she acted as if we were still together and telling me that sheâll stop and change and what not, and me being dumb enough, probably did believe her. but it was this morning, when she threw the soda at you, it was almost as if sheâd done it to me.Â
âit was different when it was just me, but when sheâs hurting people i care about? i know where to draw the line then.â jungwon finally cracked a small smile. âand you know what? i finally understood that i made the right decision when you came here and told me that i donât have to take on everything on my own. it made me realise that there are people who look out for me, so iâm not worried anymore.â
âof course, you dumb fuck,â you flicked his forehead, laughing to stop yourself from actually tearing up. you felt guilty knowing that he was going through so much on his own, but you also felt beyond ecstatic that he trusted you enough to share all that with you. âtoo bad you have such a stick up your ass that you didnât realise that sooner. and its not just me, but all our friends are here for you too. So donât you ever dare feel alone or suffer through all that by yourself.âÂ
âI know that nowâŚâ jungwon chuckled, his flushed face mirroring yours as he rested his head on the table, looking at you with the softest eyes. âthank you, y/n. You have no idea how grateful i am to you.âÂ
âshut up up with your cheesy lines, jungwon you slut, or i might just fall in love with you.â you rolled your eyes, playfully covering his face to hide your blush, because you both knew the truth anyway.Â
âi already have,â he smiled.Â
author's note: if you see my personal feelings etched into this fic, no you don't :D also did y'all notice the way i didn't even name the ex because like i was so afraid of it breaking the fourth wall like, what if its the name of your best friend or cousin or literally just your name đ
please leave comments and reblogs because i could really use some motivation, thank you ! đ¤

ALIEN SKINCARE. v! blue lock/male! reader. originally posted on quotev. masterlist.
CHAPTER I. YOU JUST LOVE BEING NOTHING, RIGHT?
Your daily routine is a terribly ordinary, if not a rather dull one.Â
Thatâs fine, however. Its normalcy comes from predictability, and with predictability comes a sense of control. Every and each new possible variant is easily molded to fit into what is already established.Â
Days come and go, much like clouds in the sky, and youâre content. You love your painfully droll, boring routine.
Which would be a lie by definition, so to deny your restlessness would be the same as trying to deny that humans need air to survive. Or to deny that the Japanese football team will never win the World Cup.Â
But alas, you live.Â
One of your classmates, Hamada, you think pensively, since you make a passable effort at remembering names of the people you have to spend considerable hours of the day with, is acting rather friendly today.
You think he wants something from you. Thatâs probably why heâs asking you to go somewhere with him after school. Sadly, it seems heâs unaware of the few universal truths of life.
That is that youâre never free after classes.Â
Everyone in your immediate vicinity is aware of this, so youâre led to believe that Hamada is extraordinarily out of the loop. Or maybe heâs being a contrarian just to appear unique in your eyes.Â
Which is not working, by the way.
âSorry, but Iâm busy today.â You say, an apologetical smile creasing your face in a familiar way.Â
âOh.â He recoils, losing confidence at your rejection. âMaybe some other day, then?â
Whatever. He should just steal all of your money and fill your shoes with nails at this point. He should spit at you and kick you until youâre a stain on the floor. Unfortunately, youâre [L/n] [Y/n], so you nod. Kindly. With all the positive hidden implications in the world.
Hamada regains some of his previous enthusiasm. Thankfully, the teacher enters the room before he could take your politeness as an invitation to further communication.
Like a good student, you listen and take notes carefully. This teacher in particular talks very slowly and often loses track of his thoughts, which greatly gets on your nerves.Â
Thatâs okay. Youâll live.
School time passes by comfortably. You demonstrate your gracefulness and virtue at every chance. Some students swoon. Plenty of girls, and curiously, a good chunk of boys as well. Some scoff at your supposed imitation of perfection. Talk about how youâre probably a faker, eager for attention and praise and whatnot. Not that you mind. They must think about you a lot, enough to start making theories on the topic of you and the nuances of your character.Â
Not that they'll ever get any confirmation. You let the invested have fun. Do the divine throw bricks at the religious? No.Â
Your schoolâs football team is having a game tomorrow. Obviously, you make your way to practice. Though, ultimately, you believe youâd be making a better use of your time by trying to fold a thousand origami cranes with just your feet and then wishing for a better team. Yet, here you are.
You move across the field like a corpse. Metaphorically, of course. To the otherâs untrained eye, it looks like youâre giving it your all. However, in your head, youâre trying to to remember at least the first ten digits of pi (youâre failing), so you switch to creating a satirical retelling of some subpar movie you and Bachira watched at the premiere some time ago (you got reasonably angry at the mediocrity of the so-called social commentary that was flaunted around as ânever seen beforeâ and âa heart clenching story that dives into the complexities of our societyâ, and Bachira got bored, so you both ditched it, wasted money be damned).Â
All that, and yet nothing of worth is happening before you. For shame, since you do think your teammates are decent people, in the same way drivers who stop their cars before they hit you are decent people. Except the probably forty something father of two who let you safely cross the street this morning probably had more ball expertise than these frankly appalling clowns throwing themselves around do.Â
Of course, you pride yourself on your ever persisting decorum, so you keep your mouth shut as you pass the ball to the guy a bit to your left, since youâre a good teammate and teamwork makes the dreamwork and yadda yadda. Even with your absent minded play, he just needs to push the ball with some semblance of force and boom, itâs a simple and clean goal.Â
But as if by some otherworldly intervention, the boy trips. Genuinely gets sent sprawling over the central object of the game.Â
It takes you every drop of self control to not lunge at him with the intent of questioning just how does this happen a day! A day! Before the match. Now, keep in mind, this strange specimen is known for his blunders. At least to you, but the rest of the team and the coach seem to hold this guy in some type of high regard. Which is crazy, since you donât think heâd be able to score a goal without you specifically holding his hand, making the whole predicament even more baffling since youâre the actual ace of the team.Â
Now, you think this team could go places, if you had the time to score more, but you have to spend it making sure your companions donât sabotage the game by playing like itâs their first time seeing a football. You surely have grinded quite a bit of your teeth mass down by pretending to be content with this charade, just so the court jester of a coach wouldnât call you uncooperative or something similarly humiliating again. God forbid he sends you to meet the bench.Â
The comically incapable guy turns to you, after all the shock and laughter has faded from the group. âAh, Iâm sorry for ruining your pass, [L/n]-kun. I guess my nerves have been getting to me, haha.âÂ
You wish it was âthe nervesâ.Â
âDonât worry about it.â You respond, channeling every bit of kindness you could find remaining within yourself. âIâm sure youâll do fine tomorrow.â
Well, he doesnât do fine, thatâs for sure.
The morning of the next day came quickly. As usual, you woke up early, got out of bed, and went through your usual routine with the goal of looking the best you possibly could, which did turn out to be a rather lengthy process, although that was nothing new. You still thought it was an insanely long and dumb.
What meets you next is the sight of your legal guardian, sprawled across the couch, still clad in her work clothes. You conclude that last night was a busy one, so you sneak past her quietly. Making things worse for her is the last thing you want, after all.Â
Next is making a nutritious breakfast. As a product of meticulous repetition, youâre quickly done with it, making sure to leave a portion for Sayaka as well, along with a note about your plans for today.
Itâs a nice, sunny Saturday. So, like you always do, you set out on a morning jog. Chiba has quite a few pleasing sights, especially when there are no hideous eyesores scrambling around in the form of people. You specifically pick a time when the crowdâs minimal, right after the early workers leave for their job. Beautiful. The fresh air stirs up every fiber of your lungs.Â
All this joy and wonder, you almost forgot about the match thatâs supposed to be held in the afternoon. In fact, the memory of that shitshow of a football practice from yesterday almost entirely left your mind. From your increasing frustration, you donât notice how your pleasant jog turned into a full blown sprint. After a good hour or so of this, you notice just how sweaty you were.Â
Gross. Youâd have to shower again.
Right as youâre about to open the gate of your residence, a weight slams against your back at full force. You remain entirely unbothered, however, as youâre already very well versed in such occurrences.Â
Bachira Meguru has his arms wrapped around your back, clinging onto you much like an eccentrically colored koala. It seems like the fabric soggy with your sweat doesnât bother him at all. Heâs always been a bit strange like that.Â
âBachira-kun.â You smile. It comes easier to you. âGood morning.â
âGood morning!â He grins, lips pulling back to reveal the full expanse of teeth. âYou didnât invite me to go jogging! Again!â
Having a conversation in this position, with your posture being as straight as a tree and Bachira acting as some type of a humanoid backpack or a large parasite, would be inconvenient to most, but the two of you have long made this a part of your ânormalcyâ.Â
âThatâs because youâre never awake that early.â You retort easily, with a light teasing tone. âIâm surprised youâre even up right now.âÂ
âMy monster got restless, so I wanted to play football.â He says, like thatâs a totally normal thing to say. Like pointing out how the weather is nice or such.Â
Listen, you genuinely do like Bachira (as far as someone like you is capable of liking), and you suppose he shares the same sentiment to some degree, because his whole âMonsterâ thing isnât something that you talk about with just anyone, unless you want to be wheeled off to the nearest institution and shunned forever. You pride yourself on your patience and understanding, so you tend to brush this topic off whenever it comes up in a conversation. Mostly because you have no idea what to say that wouldnât be extremely harsh. You want to honor Bachiraâs companionship and trust in you, which means that him getting upset over something you stupidly spat out without thinking is not on your to-do list.
You do think that seeing a professional sometime in the future would do him some good, though.
Putting that aside, you nod in understanding. âI see. But-â You poke at his leg. â-Can you get off, please? I want to take a shower.â
Bachira hums a long tune, but he makes no move to do what youâve requested of him. After a passage of silence, he asks a question, even if he knows the answer already.Â
âHey, can we play together? Just for a bit?âÂ
He canât see your face, but he can clearly visualize the apologetic expression that graces it. It looks the same, every time he asks. âSorry, but I need to save energy for later. Maybe next time?âÂ
There it is again. Despite it being a few years since you two met, both lovers of football and everything football related, youâve rejected his proposal again and again. You always have an excuse, something about being busy, or not feeling well, or this and that.Â
Bachira has been resigned to it. Yet, he still repeats the inquiry, like youâll change your mind someday. Maybe next time? As if that will ever come.
He lets it go, as he always does.
Finally stepping down, he leans onto your side. Heâs rather sweaty too, you notice. âRight! You have a match today! Make sure to score lots of goals, âkay? Iâll be there to cheer for you!âÂ
Bachira thinks youâre not aware of the fondness you let slip into your gaze. Itâs for the best, though, since if you knew youâd probably try to mask it with some form of artificial politeness. He likes you the most when youâre honest, in these small tidbits of time, after all.
âSure.â You say, simply, as some things are.
The tensions are high before the match. For what reason, you donât know. The match is purely for practice, although youâre curious on how a low tier school such as Kagayaku High managed to schedule a match against some bigshot from Kanagawa. Youâd think theyâd consider it a waste of time, but you guess not.Â
A notification lights up the screen of your phone just as youâre finishing putting your jersey on.Â
Sayaka
Iâm so sorry that I wonât be able to make it to your game!!!! Work is hell today 𦹠´ áŻ
` đŚš
But I hope your team does well! Do your best ঢ়( â˘Ě á â˘Ě ঢ়)
You snort at the womanâs usage of kaomojis. It was hard to imagine that she was nearly forty years old. Keeping your eye on the clock, you quickly type a response.
You
Please donât worry about it!Â
Take care of yourself!
Sayaka
Youâre too nice to me, haha
The breakfast was delicious, by the way! It really made my day (â§ââŚ)
Iâm gonna make us something to eat later, as a celebration and payback! á( â˘Ě á â˘Ě )á
You gnawed at your lip worrieldy. While you truly did appreciate the sentiment, Sayakaâs cooking skills ⌠werenât something youâd write home about. Her message truly left you worried for the safety of the stove. Before you could try to change her mind (and save the neighborhood from a possible fire), one of your teammates gestures for you to move.
Ah. Itâs time.
You
The game is starting, ttyl
The match goes just as well as you thought it would.Â
The opponentâs defense tears through the clumsy guy like a knife through butter within the first few minutes of the game. Theyâre not too shabby, you have to admit. But the more you watch them, the more holes ripe for exploatation you notice.
The rush of excitement still evades you, as you circle an opposing player who is attempting to take the ball from you. Your mind is still in its autopilot mode, where you make boring, yet entirely rational plays that have carried your team to where it is now. Move your leg and lean to the right, and when the guy is still thinking of his next move, kick the ball between his legs. A safe and classic nutmeg. After that-
A movement leaves you startled; someone dashes past you with unforseen speed and snatches the football right from your possession. Youâre forced to be wide awake, left feeling like a bucket of icy water was thrown over your head.
Huh?
For what seems to be the first time in years, your heartbeat echoes loudly in your ears and shakes your very core.
You gape at the distancing back of the player who had just turned your world around. In bold letters, the name Itoshi acts as a mockery of you. Helpless in your shock, you can do nothing but watch as your newest adversary scores a clean goal into the net, while Kagayaku Highâs goalkeeper does nothing.
For once, you donât blame him.
The clowns of your circus are talking amongst themselves. You think theyâre trying to include you as well, but youâre too busy rebooting your brain to care.
You wanted Itoshi gone. An irritation so strong its frightening festers under your skin as you stare, long and hard, at the intruder who had come to ruin everything for you.
But was he truly ruining anything?Â
When a teammate of yours moves with the ball, you abandon all uniform strategy. This stupid team could go to hell. Both yours and the enemyâs. This game should be just between you and him.Â
Much to the shock of your team, who had probably gotten too comfortable with your usually passive way of playing, you pick up the pace, with the speed and technique built up through many regular torturous sessions of trying to polish yourself to your extremes.
Itâs something you had to do, lest you want to be left in the dust when the real threat appears.
Is Itoshi a real threat?
A wispy smile still hangs from your lips. It looks ⌠out of place, possibly, as itâs no longer a carefully planned tool of deceit.
Astonished shouts of your team as you steal the ball from your own comrade is nothing but background noise.
There he comes. His gaze is glacier cold as he weaves between the humanoid obstacles in his path. Surely, heâs wholy confident in his domination of this match. You wait.
Itoshi moves with clear intent of making you crumble under his might. That wonât do. Who does he think he is? Who does he think you are? Does he think youâre a mere bug, a speck of dust on his road to victory? That doesnât make sense at all.
âPass to me!â Someone yells at you, as if you werenât the damned ace, as if you werenât the one who gave this shitty team the ability to get off the ground in the first place.Â
Youâre nowhere near the penalty area. The other teamâs defense is scattered around, trying to cut off all your routes. Now aware of the possible danger you represent, Itoshi is right by your side, with his eyelash rimmed eyes watching you like he might tear you apart. At least heâs fast on the uptake, you muse, as you almost carelessly roll the ball across the grass.
The angle is terribly narrow, but itâll do.Â
Avoiding Itoshiâs attempt at ridding you of the ball, you raise your leg and deliver a swift kick to it, sending it flying in a rather flimsy arc (your brows furrow slightly at that), which manages to slam into the net at a spot left open.
1-1.
You stop and take a long look at the goal. That was a five out of ten. Hell, maybe even four. But it seemed like it was enough to make your current ârivalâ appear like he wants to explode you with his mind.
That makes you ⌠giddy? Edges of your lips wobble as you attempt to keep your expression under control. Even if you just single handedly destroyed the foundation of your team as well as the way its members saw you, you still had appearances to keep. From the corner of your eye, you spot Bachira watching, with a grin so manic it bordered on deranged.
In the end, you lose the game. And yet, to you, it feels like a victory, sweeter than any other. You managed to keep Itoshi from scoring another goal (well, you didnât score another one either, but that was fine), and you got the front seat to the slow unraveling of his stoic disposition.
His team manages to secure a victory with their goal. But their ace, visibly pissed, makes his way to you. His tone is biting, befitting of an untouchable beauty such as himself.
âNext time, Iâll crush you.â
And then he leaves. One for dramatics, thatâs for sure. Mommyâs little edgelord. Deciding to play along, you wave at his retreating back, signature smile set in place. âIf you say so, Itoshi.â
Pointedly ignoring the troupe of mongrels, you collect your belongings and make a swift departure. Of course, nothing is that simple for you, because Bachira is waiting for you outside. Predictably, he lunges at you, but is considerate enough to take note of your possible exhaustion and not jump on your back like he usually does, instead opting to sling an arm around your shoulders.Â
âThat was pretty insane, you know.â He begins, although you note the sharpness of his grin that was unknown to you, up until now. âI never knew you could play like that.â
Then, he goes on to speak more, but youâre already ensnared within your own mind. A familiar thing; anger, ire, all-consuming, starts to ignite your entire being. A combination of many factors give way to its rise, both from Bachiraâs subtle and probably unintentional downplaying of your perceived capability, and from ⌠well, everything about the game. Especially Itoshi. What, did they all think you were some insignificant ant? A poser, perhaps? Maybe a-
You pause all thought. Suddenly, your legs feel weak. Not from tiredness, of course not. Embarrassingly, the weight of emotions was always a bigger burden than anything of physical kind.Â
That was your weakness. A flaw that you needed to demolish.Â
âBachira,â you gasp out, voice small and uneven. âBachira-â
The boy in question tilts his head. âHuh? What is it?âÂ
âHold me.â You say, just before you collapse.

*clears throat.*
(apologize in advance for any mistakes english isn't my first language)
Alright. Here we go.
Look, I haven't watched MLP in a LONGGGG time. But recently with all the stuff I missed our and since the fandom is still pretty much alive and well I decided to take peek by peek in the seasons I haven't watched.
Until I came across, these guys
And I have so much to say.
I didn't write a script for this or anything so I don't know where this rambling is going so I just ask you to bear with me for as much as you can, okay?
Look, watching the Young Six episodes I've experienced one of the things that angers me the most. SUCH. WASTED. POTENTIAL.
You're telling me we got whatever the hell is G5 when instead we could have gotten THESE GUYS???? THESE COOL, UNIQUE CHARACTERS THAT ACTUALLY HAVE AN INTERESTING STORY THAT MAKES SENSE AND HAVE SI MUCH POTENTIAL TO BE ONE OF THE SICKEST LORE ARCS IN MLP???
I homestly don't know what Hasbro WAS THINKING in giving them so little screentime. There's so much I have to say but I'll try my best to keep my thoughts organized.
First things first, we'll need to talk a little about G5 or "Make Your Mark" series or whatever. I personally enjoyed the movie, though the story didn't make much sense (we'll get to that later) the characters were pretty nice, the songs were catchy and the animation was mwah. I didn't bother to watch all of the G5 series, because- (pardon to all who enjoy it) it's so. Freaking. Boring. Like I know there's a pony girl that's supposed to be a traitor among them but then grows onto being their actual friend and there's a villainess and that whole conflict and yada yada yada. But honestly there just isn't anything I found enganging in the entire thing. I can't explain it, it just feels- off. I know I probably don't have much right to talk, cause again, only now I'm diving into the mlp again after missing out A LOT, but I just can't bring myself to like that series.
Now, the whole School Of Friendship saga in the G4 series with our beloved Young Six, I know some people had some issues with it and it didn't please everyone, and while it does have some flaws and is certainly not perfect, you can't deny there was lots of potential. (I'll try to not overuse that word I'm sorry)
I personally, really liked the concept of different creatures from different cultures coming together and forming the perfectly diverse friend group. Episodes like The Hearth's Warming Club and What Lies Beneath were particuarly really fun, it was nice to dive into their cultures and backstories while also watching the six of them be vulnerable in front of one another and grow closer. If only they had more screentime and more deep episodes like that, they could have been in the top 10 found families in cartoons.
Now, just some other reasons as to why I think they're interesting characters and should've gotten more than what was given to them.
Because
1- Their whole deal is that they're not all ponies, that they're all different species. We get to learn lots about their different cultures and customs. It would've been such a good way to teach children about acceptance and respecting differences while also being entertaining. Especially in a school enviroment.
2- We got not one, but TWO male characters in the group. It would make little boys that are interested in mlp feel more comfortable and valid for it. AND those two males also have distinct personalities and their own active roles. Gallus being sort of the leader of the group, and Sandbar being the only pony therefore the one to stand up for his friends.
3- While they're supposed to be the new represantives of the elements of harmonies, their personalities are still interesting and different from the Mane 6.
Onto that, I really like how it's implied they could be the next helders (or whatever its called) of the elements of harmony. Given their special connection to the tree, how similiar they are to the previous groups (Mane 6 and The Pillars) and how Twilight LITERALLY LIFTED THEM UP AS WELL WHILE SHE SPOKE ABOUT HOW THE ELEMENTS WILL LIVE ON, it would've been such a cool concept.
Onto that, I wanna talk a bit about each of their characters too and how I think they could've been dealt with.
Gallus is the element of magic, but unlike Twilight who's all open and confident-spoken about friendship and all, Gallus is probably the one in the group that's the most closed-off and dislikes getting all cheesy. It would've been interesting seeing his development as the helder ot the element of magic. AND ESPECIALLY since he doesn't have magic in the first place, since Twilight and Starwirl were unicorns. So maybe he could make posions? Get powers someway else? Many posibilities
Sandbar is the element of kindness, but unlike Fluttershy he's extrovert and down to making friends. His overrall personality is that he's constantly very chill-going and nothing seems to ever upset or annoy him. So it also would've been interesting to see how that pattern would break, especially because of his element.
Yona is the element of honesty. She's probably the one that has the hardest time adapting to the Equestrians among the group, and even tried to act like a pony instead of herself one episode. It would've been interesting to see how her element of honesty reflects on how she should be true to herself, especially since her Yak culture comes a lot with honor.
Ocellus is the element of genority, yet, unlike Rarity, she's a lot more like Fluttershy, being timid and insecure, while also being smart and well-read like Twilight. It would've been nice if her development with her element would be gaining confidence in herself and being generous to others that way. Especially since she has a fear of being like the old changling queen (forgot her name) so imagine if she just turned out to be the opposite of her. Instead of selfish and cruel, being generous and kind.
Smolder is the element of loyality, but also like Gallus, she's also not into getting cheesy. But what I find imteresting about her is how she tries to keep her tough, agressive persona (since thats how dragons are) yet it is revealed she's actually interested in cute, fluffy stuff like tea parties and dresses. So it would've been cool to see her growing confident in admiting her interests, therefore being more like Rainbow Dash, who's always confident on herself
And last but not least, Silverstream is the element of laughter. But what's hooking about it is the fact that Silverstream herself probably hasn't KNOWN what laughter is for a long time, having to hide under The Storm King's rule. She's very talkctive, creative and extrovert, like Pinkie Pie, but she also has her trauma that haunts and intimidates her, unlike Pinkie who usually faces her fears headfront. Another great development story.
So just hear me out, okay. I don't care if MLP is over. I don't care if there's G5.
We. Need. A. Young. Six. Spin-off. Series.
I know it sounds crazy, but I genuely think this idea could work out if it was handled well enough, and Hasbro could make some good money out of this.
Just bear with me. A spin-off series set on the timeline between season 8-9 aka, still on the School Of Friendship, focused entirely on the Young Six. We could still get the Mane 6, of course, but mostly as support characters. It doesn't have to be a particularly long series, (though maybe that could work as well IF handled with enough care) maybe just 2 seasons or so. And I'm not thinking like a slice-of-life or fun little extra kind of thing, I'm thinking of ACTUAL lore. Just more about how the tree and the elements work, and how these six students could grow into being their new helders. In each episode it becomes more and more evident to them and the Mane 6 themselves that they're going to be the next generation of the elements. So imagine once they all fully it figure out and talk about it, the Y6 suddenly feel this pressure about how they're supposed to live up to their teachers and fear that they have to be EXACTLY like them. So we see Sandbar taking extra kindness classes with Fluttershy, Yona taking extra honesty classes with Applejack and heck even Gallus is taking studies more seriously (especially since he's supposed to be the element of magic which again I find imteresting since he doesn't really have magic at least not the way Twilight and Starwirl do. ) So we could have an entire episode about the M6 getting through to them and showing they don't have to be JUST LIKE THEM nor The Pillars. They can be their own people.
Another main-plot idea would be having more villains, probably trying to test them or tear them apart (cough cough like Swift Foot from the idw comics cough cough) or maybe you could even fit someone as intense as King Sombra, or maybe even even the return of Tirek, Cozy Glow and Chrysalis in there. (I remembered her name yay)
And, of course, more onto their characters, flaws, backstories and cultures! I would love to see more about their people and customs, just as much as I would love to explore their traumas, fears, ugly sides and how they overcome it together (cough cough found family COUGH COUGH GAGS)
And another thing, I especially would've liked to explore Yona's and Sandbar's relantioship.
I MEAN LOOK AT THEM-
Don't they give massive beauty-and-the-beast vibes? I love how their colors and body types contrast with one and another, and their personalities aswell. Yona being loud, cheerful and clumsy while Sandbar is calm, thoughtful and carefree. I just love the big girl x soooorta small guy vibes and I especially loved how gentle and reassuring Sandbar was towards her in that episode. I mean, "I don't care if you're not a pony, you're the best Yona I know." SERIOUSLY? WHO WROTE THAT LINE? I'D LIKE TO GIVE THEM A HUG. And also, onto the spin-off series matter, it would also be a cool topic to explore. Imagine if some ponies/yaks are judging them for having a relantioship while being different species and they learn to ignore them and live past that??? I usually don't care much for romance, (always prefered friendship and found families) but this would've been a nice little arc and episode theme to see.
Lastly, (I'm almost done I promise) to the more technical/economical part.
Like I said in the beggining, I genuely think Hasbro could make some good money out of this. Firstly because it will be using the G4 characters and lore and not...whatever mess of a plot G5 is.
And secondly because, if they took the time to give them some cool power-up designs like they did with the Mane 6, I'M SURE the toys would sell.
I mean- JUST LOOK AT THESE COOL DESIGNS I FOUND ON THE INTERNET?? (not mine, credits to whoever made it, you ate that)
DON'T THEY LOOK LIKE A TOY SET THAT WOULD CATCH THE CHILDREN'S EYES ON THE TOY AISLE? OH YES I THINK THEY WOULD.
And if anything, they could be as bold as to make an extra Equestria Girls (well, girls and boys) series with them. I know it sounds kinda dumb, especially given the fact that I'm not sure about how that would work given that when Spike went to the "human dimension" or whatever he turned to a dog... So Smolder would also be a dog? Sandbar would be the only actual human in the group?... BUT I'm sure they could come up with some excuse to make it work. Give them some cool, colorful outfits for different events and I'm sure it would sell. And ESPECIALLY since with Gallus and Sandbar in the group, it could get the attetion of young boys aswell.
Anyways. That was it.
Uhm. Conclusion: Hasbro should hire me. I know what I'm talking about. I think. At least a bit.
And I genuely think this could work if only SOMEONE gave it the time and care.
I don't know how to end ramblings so uhmmmm thank you all for coming to my pep talk.
They deserved better.

January 2024 Review Roundup
hello everyponyâźď¸ something i want to do through 2024 is a mini review series where i recap some of the media i watched/played/read at the end of every month. this was inspired by tumblr user ponettâs 2023 media wrap-up, it's a great collection of quick reviews so go check it out!
iâm doing this partially as writing/analysis practice, but mostly because my memory is really bad and i want to keep track of what i've seen this year. with that said, my thoughts on everything i finished in january 2024 is under the cut :]
Portal 1 + 2
yyyup i beat Portal and it only took me (checks watch) 13 years
the first time i played Portal 2 was at a friendâs house when i was in middle school, and i had a fuckin blast. but after all that time... it still holds up! i donât think anything i have to say about Portal will be particularly new since people have been praising this series since it came out. the writing, the level design, even the controls feel tight and engaging the whole way through. i played on switch and expected a bit of jank, but i was pleasantly surprised at how smooth it felt to play. the only part that dragged for me were the levels through the old aperture labs, but i think i would like them a lot more on a second replay. Portal 2 is fantastic and one of my new favorite games, the artistry behind it is truly incredible and iâm really glad i finally finished it. while i was playing Portal 2, i described Glados and Wheatly to a friend and said âtheyâre like if a ceiling fan could be passive aggressive and if Fozzie Bear was an evil golf ballâ
I Think You Should Leave
finally. i can truly understand and appreciate Subspace Dubbed Over
i think one of my favorite things about I Think You Should Leave is how it utilizes horror. beyond sitting slack-jawed in disbelief at the crazy events unfolding before my eyes, a number of the sketches dipped into bits that genuinely kinda scared me. like the one sketch that circulates on here where the guy (pig?) in a mask crawls through a dog door, which is. genuinely terrifying. but so many of the other sketches have slow, nerve-racking pacing leading to crazy shit that would be perfect in a horror film were the context different. idk i like dissecting how horror and comedy are essentially the same thing and I Think You Should Leave was very good at enabling that <3 favorite sketches are probably âthen let my wife eat the damn receiptâ and â55 BURGERS 55 HOTDOGS 100 FRIES 100 TATER TOTSâ
Sonic Prime Season 3
man. ohhhh man. i didnât go into this with high expectations and i still feel let down. Sonic Prime Season 3 was definitely my least favorite âseasonâ of the batch - abysmal pacing, very few character moments i actually enjoyed, and the things i praised about the show felt very underutilized through these episodes. Nine is the shining star of Sonic Prime and i was looking forward to seeing his more villainous side, but his character took such a sharp turn into pure evil and it felt like he spent the entire season repeating the same three lines. and as much as i praise Shadowâs writing in Prime, it doesnât really matter when he spends half of the season trapped in a hole that he just⌠runs out of later.
lastly, i cannot stop thinking about how bad the pacing of this season is. three episodes for a repetitive final battle feels like such a waste of time when you see just how much they rush the emotional resolutions in the last episode. however, there is one thing i truly love about Sonic Prime Season 3 - i love the Sails and Mangey fakeout death. it's so fucking funny. like you really expect me to believe that two cartoon animals in this Y-7 rated show EXPLODED?????? absolute comedy gold.
overall, i just⌠donât really know what to think of Sonic Prime. anything i enjoyed in the show was often fleeting, and much of it felt like its only purpose was to waste my time. also Rouge i canât believe they did you so dirty oh my god
Ghost Trick
i was so proud that i figured out the secret behind Sisselâs memory loss like halfway through the game. however i also kept getting caught during the prison escape sequence like an idiot
Ghost Trick is in a similar situation as Portal where 1. itâs incredible and one of my new favorite games, and 2. thereâs nothing i can really say about it that hasnât already been said or just. shouldnât be said. Ghost Trick is a fantastic mystery game, and because of that i think itâs best to go into its story as blind as possible. the narrative unfolds in such fascinating ways - even though the actual object manipulation gameplay isnât directly about solving the mystery (like in Ace Attorney or other mystery games), it still ties wonderfully into the story in some incredibly unique ways.
i also really love the artstyle of Ghost Trick - i love 2D character artwork with that sharp lineweight, it reminded me a lot of Sonic Battle (another game with an artstyle i love). i was also really impressed by the 3D character models and animation - despite the limitations of the camera, you get a wonderful sense of everyoneâs personality from the limited body language expressed in the overworld (even though the models lack much facial expression which. i guess they donât really need? idk that was the only thing that threw me off). anyways yeah everyone should play Ghost Trick so Ghost Trick fans can be freed from their curse and talk about it without having to tag like 10 different spoiler tags. and for Missile
Scott Pilgrim Takes Off
ok bear with me. i went into Scott Pilgrim Takes Off without reading the comics first. and i fuckin loved it
my understanding of Scott Pilgrim before SPTO was mostly from the movie (I KNOW IâM SORRY), but even with my base understanding of the series i really enjoyed this show for what it was. i found myself appreciating the time they dedicated to further develop every single character in the show - especially Ramona. sheâs fantastic as the lead, i really loved watching her reconcile with her exes and seeing all of them grow instead of exploding into coins. my favorite episode was probably the one with her and Roxie - not only did i adore the movie-jumping set pieces, but you really understand the weight of Ramonaâs mistakes in their past relationship and how much it hurt Roxie. despite the big climactic fight, the flashbacks are quiet, subtle, heartbreaking. Ramonaâs apology is genuine, and it feels so wonderful to watch her confront her past throughout the show. also i think itâs really funny that for all these characters to become the best versions of themselves, they had to kill off Scott for most of the story
and holy shit the artstyle and animation. oh my god. i love watching something that makes me immediately go âi need to see the storyboards for this RIGHT NOW.â SPTO is such a visual delight to watch, it elevates the artstyle of the comics while also keeping what makes that style so appealing - i love the line weight on the characters, i love how much forward energy the animation has, i love the fucking. virtual boy section. as soon as i found out Science Saru was also behind Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken, everything made immediate sense. i was destined to love this show.
another worry i had going into SPTO (besides the fact that i hadnât read the comics lol) is that the original cast from the movie was returning. i think the movie cast is fine, but i wasnât sure how some of them would fare with voice acting for animation. however, i thought they all did a good job - i think the whole cast loves these characters and would be able to fit into them fairly easily no matter what form their performance takes, and they definitely had a good voice director in the studio with them. the only thing that felt off about the voice performances to me was that sometimes it sounded like some of their mics kept peaking?? idk some of these episodes i watched high as balls and i felt like i could hear and see every single sound and frame of the show. so that might have just been me.
god i did not. expect to have this much to say about Scott Pilgrim. i really loved this show and iâm currently reading the comics to fully catch up on the general Scott Pilgrim experience - i think reading the comics AFTER Takes Off is making me appreciate even more of the character work that went into the show. like they do so much with Mathew Patel in SPTO, a character that was. not originally around for a long time from what iâve gathered? also i like the funny little robot. oh my GOD i cannot talk about this show anymore whatever itâs good get me out of here
Sword AF Season 1
i put on the Smosh castâs D&D series to play in the background while i was drawing. i did not expect to think much of it. instead, i had one of the most enjoyable D&D podcast experiences since i listened to The Adventure Zone Balance???
i havenât really enjoyed other D&D podcasts since i dropped off of The Adventure Zone, and i wasnât expecting much from Sword AF of all things. then i saw that Shayne was playing as a druid warforged made of plants and his name was fucking Fernie and i sat my ass down and LISTENED. while i think Sword AF is currently lacking in its world and larger story, those things just. arenât really what Sword AF is really trying to provide at the moment. itâs main focus is comedy, and the players are genuinely such a delight to watch play together and build off of each other. they mostly focus on bits and goofs for the sake of she show's comedic tone, but i still found it thoroughly enjoyable because every player embodies and performs their characters really well. idk Sword AF was an unexpected hit for me this month, i thought it was fun. and i love Fernie so much
Plastic Death - Glass Beach
so originally i wasnât going to include music reviews in these roundups at all, but then i was entirely surprised by a new Glass Beach album and oh my god. holy shit. oh my fucking god jesus christ. holy shit. its preddy good
Plastic Death gets the low point of the album out of the way immediately. it starts with the âphone call/conversation audioâ trope that i donât particularly enjoy - HOWEVER despite me disliking this opening, 1. it sets up the overall themes of Plastic Death very quickly, and 2. the rest of the album blows this 40 second opening completely out of the water. from there, the album grows into something beautiful and uncontained, and i just. i really like it
Plastic Death captures the beauty of the temporary, asks what it means to be created for a cause you canât fulfill, questions if you can reclaim yourself from cycles and constraints designed to destroy you. and is also about being transgender. the lyrics are abstract in a way that requires a conversation with the listener, many of the vocals obscured and smooth like waves - this album is definitely one that needs to be listened to a few times. i wasnât sure how i felt about the vocal style at first before realizing the vocals were the main reason i was relistening to this album, allowing myself to find even more that i loved about it. the instrumentation is also incredible, i love the use of marimba in a number of songs - distant, eerie, almost skeletal. and the fucking. 8-bit section?? which kinda rules???? and thatâs the only point in the album it ever shows up??????? incredible. a fleeting, somewhat silly moment that i love every time.
this album left my heart aching, in part from my connection to it and in part from the pure love and joy emanating from this music. i can feel just how much fun this music was to perform and create, a cohesion of time and sound that just clicked for me. Plastic Death made me miss playing music, which is something i havenât felt in years. all from an album that starts with a conversation about CrankGameplayâs dead youtube channel. good lord
i like this album a normal amount. go listen to it a few times. my favorite tracks are cul-de-sac and commatose
Wish
i watched Wish with a couple of friends and knew i probably wasn't going to like it. with that in mind, i gave myself a challenge: i wanted to find one thing about this movie that i genuinely really loved. it could be anything, and loving it for ironic reasons was allowed.
here's the complete list of things i loved about Disney's Wish (2023):
i love the one shot where King Magnifico stirs an evil caldron evily. i thought it was hilarious. what was he cooking
i loved that the end credits included a reference to Dinosaur 2001 at all, and i loved that they paid homage to Big Hero 6 by showing the forgettable villain of that movie instead of their Baymax cashcow for some reason. my friends and i saw him show up in the credits and were like "who's the trenchcoat guy??"
you may notice that this list is very short and 50% of it is about the movie's credits. so yeah this movie is not very good
Wish is an empty husk of a movie. everything about it feels so, so hollow - lifeless town squares, uninspired character designs (to quote a friend: "i have all of these characters' hairstyles in The Sims"), characters whose existence is only justified to fill empty space or an overused archetype, and an "evil" villain who lacks charisma and spine in a futile effort to remind the audience of previous disney villains with actual character. even the artstyle lacks any sort of sauce, the watercolor effect they were trying to go for only makes the backgrounds and character textures run together, and the dull lighting makes things look even more faded. it's like disney was scared of making a movie that made its audience feel... anything. all to celebrate 100 years of Disney slop, baby!!!
Some YouTube videos I liked in January: đĽ An Exhaustive Look at Pokemon Brilliant Diamond đĽ TomSka's Guide to Plagiarism đĽ Paradise Bombed (this video is a great piece of journalism and iâm definitely not doing it justice by throwing it into the youtube vid list) đĽ Surprising Our Friends with Zoo Animals đĽ Did FNAF Ever Have a Good Story?
thanks for reading! next monthâs roundup will be wild because iâll likely be reviewing House of Leaves and Hazbin Hotel. can you guess which cursed house gives me a worse headache? WHO KNOWS! (hint: it's Hazbin Hotel)
#under the readmore is pretty long! oh boy i love having opinions about media#most stuff in january i liked a lot though :] good month of stuff!!#review roundup#<- oh boy new tag for this series#long post

idea; fem S/O has the power of freezing and slowing down time but only reveals that in a sappy way.. The perfect placed a note that holds a very honest confession inside a small box, and tossed it at her crush really fast, only for it to suddenly freeze infront of her crush's face. No momentum, frozen in time before it hits the confused and concerned guy. Leona, Riddle and Jamil; fluff with mutual feelings, please! the idea of S/O using her (newfound?) powers to confess is just <333 (GN S/O is fine too if you'd rather write that way btw!!)
I tweaked it a little bit but the general idea is still there. Hope you like it! Thanks for requesting.
Making a moment last
Life is strange. When you came to Twisted Wonderland, you were a magicless Prefect assigned to a rundown dorm. Then Overblots happened, several of them. Youâd been involved in those incidents, getting far closer to an Overblot than most people do. According to Crowley, that is probably what triggered your magic awakening. It felt too good to be true, after all this time, to finally have magic like your peers. For that reason, you had hid your blossoming abilities. The staff had given you remedial lessons in magic after school hours, to help you catch up to your classmates. Now, you finally feel confident enough about your magic to tell others about it. You know just who you want to start with; your crush.
Your crush isnât the type to waste time fooling around, so it was hard to convince him to meet you out near the forest. However, after everything youâd done for him during and after his Overblot, how could he refuse you? So, heâd come. Now, you are standing before him nervously shifting the small box you hold from hand to hand. âSo, Prefect,â your crush starts curiously, âwhatâs this all about?âÂ
You smile at him and speak, âI have something Iâve been meaning to tell you but I wasnât really sure how to go about it. Thatâs why I thought it might be easier to show you. All the things that happened between us back when, well you know when; no need to bring that back up now.â He grimaces, recalling the trials he had put you through with his Overblot. He gives you a small nod of understanding and you continue. âWell, itâs changed me and Iâd like to think for the better. Anyway, I know weâve become a lot closer since then, so I wanted you to be the first to know aboutâŚwellâŚâ
It was then that you took the small box youâd been holding and tossed it high in the air, angling it to come down near your companion. Only it didnât come down, for right as it hit the highest point in itâs arc, you used your unique magic to freeze it in time. Your companion stood rapt, mouth falling open in shock as he looked up at the unexpected sight before him. This was your chance to slip away; you had courage to confess but⌠maybe not in person. The letter in the box would say it all.
When your magic hit its limit, the box resumed itâs decent, falling neatly into the hands of your waiting crush. He turns to speak to you, to tell you all his thoughts on your display and what your comments had meant to him butâŚyou were gone. Without you there, his attention immediately goes back to the mystery box, which he notices has his name written on it in neat lettering. He opens it carefully and finds a letter inside.
To my Dearest One,
Meeting you has changed my life, so much so that it has now changed me (as Iâm sure youâve noticed). If I could take every moment weâve ever spent together and freeze them in time, I would. I want out time together to last forever. I guess what Iâm saying is that I like you and maybe I always have. Iâm sorry I wasnât brave enough to tell you to your face but Iâm glad I can say it here. I really like you.
              Yours, the Prefect of Ramshackle Dorm
He reads your letter over several times, willing the familiar words to settle into understanding. Each time he reads it, it sends butterflies to his stomach, making him feel so agitated, he questions whether he has really read the message correctly. And so, he reads it again and again.
Finally, he forces himself to stop, takes a deep breath and gazed into the distance where Ramshackle lays. Can it really be that you feel the same for him? Even after the way he hurt you during his Overblot? He hadnât allowed himself to hope for that, keeping his own feelings buried deeply within himself. But nowâŚ
If you are too shy to confess to him in person, then heâll just have to take the lead. He struts determinedly back to Heartslabyul to begin preparations for a proper tea party. After all, there are rules to romance; a proper confession must have a proper setting.
You suppose it is a good sign that you are still being invited to tea parties at Heartslabyul afterâŚyesterday. You are sure that your face canât get any hotter when you think back on your confession to the strict Dorm Leader of Heartslabyul. You hid in the nearby forest to watch his reaction but all heâd done was stare at your letter and then return to the dorm. You took that for a rejection and resigned to never speak of it again.
For that reason, you were surprised to receive an invitation to a tea party at Heartslabyul so soon. You considered skipping out on the event but finally decided that, if Riddle was going to put the incident behind him, then you should too. You could still meet him as a friend, at least. That was something. So you put on your nicest outfit and went to attend the party; perfectly on time, just as Riddle likes.
When you step through the mirror, Trey is waiting for you. âAh Prefect, right on time. Riddle will be so glad.â You canât help but smile, hearing your own thought parroted back to you. You start following Trey (the rose maze can be quite confusing for students who do not reside in the dorm), and chat with him as you walk. âIâm glad I could join you all today after, well no, never mind.â Trey turns his head slightly, âWith us all? I think you might have the wrong idea about today.â You might have asked him more but he suddenly stop, steps aside and gestures for you to go on. âWeâve arrived.â
You look at Trey questioningly as you close the distance and then pass him, entering the space in the maze he has lead you to. Inside is a single table set to hold a tea for two. At the far end of the space, Riddle paces back and forth. When he hears your steps fall on the paving stones, he turns to look at you. The coat on his dorm uniform settles against the back of his legs and he nervously rubs his hands over it, making sure it falls perfectly into place while he gathers himself. Then, having collected his thoughts, he moves to pull out a chair for you. âWonât you please join me for tea, Prefect?â
You gaze around one more time, verifying that it was really just the two of you here and then you take the seat he has offered you. He pours you both a cup of tea and adds the traditional number of sugar cubes to each glass. You sip at your tea and wait for him to speak, not trusting yourself to speak first. Finally, Riddle does begin. âItâs very improper to give a confession and run off without hearing a response. Did you know that?â Your mouth falls open and works trying to form words, leaving you looking like a fish. Riddle seems to realize heâs falling too deeply into his strict nature and shakes his head, âNever mind that. What I mean to say is that Iâd like to answer your confession now.â Riddle reaches out his hand, placing it palm up on the table. You look at it a moment before hesitantly placing your own hand in his. âPrefect, you said you wanted our time together to last forever. I also feel the same way.â You gaze at him, gasping aloud at the acceptance you hadnât expected. He looks at you and his chin raises slightly, âOnlyâŚâ
âOnly, I donât think youâll be able to make time freeze forever if your magic is only at that level.â He starts, face flushing as thought he has just heard himself saying all those romantic things just now and felt the need to change the conversation. âI think you will need to practice quite a bit more, donât you? MaybeâŚ. maybe you need a tutor?â He looks shyly across the table at you. âI could help you out, if youâll stay by my side.â You smile widely at him and squeeze the hand you hold. âI canât think of anyone more suited to teach me than you, Riddle dear.â He lets out a breath he hadnât known he was holding and smiles back at you. Romance was new to him but education he knew. This was a foundation you could build on.
Leona was angry. If you are going to have the gall to confess to him, donât think you can just run away after. All his life, he has felt abandoned and overlooked and now you go running off on him too. The more he thinks over your disappearance, the more upset he gets.  He stands at the edge of the forest, tail twitching irritably, replaying the scenario in his head.Â
Each time he thinks of the part where you just run off and abandon him, he gets more and more angry. Finally, it builds to a point where he uses his unique magic to turn your gift to sand. Whelp, he hadnât actually meant for that to happen. Now he feels more disappointed in himself for getting carried away. This calms him down enough to think and thankfully, Leona is quite adept at turning unexpected incidents to his favor.
Leona smiles cunningly, he has lost his keepsake letter but perhaps not his prey. He stoops down and gathers what he can of the sand left from the magic and shoves it in his pocket. He just needs to purchase one little thing to bring this plan together. Time to head to Samâs Mystery Shop.
You were nervous. Springing a surprise confession on Leona and then bailing on him was not your best idea. Now youâve got to be on guard for when youâll see him again; imagine what heâll say, what heâll do. Perhaps he will be angry; you donât want to be around an angry Leona. You walk cautiously through the halls of Ramshackle, as though you might step around the corner at any moment and find Leona there. But then you laugh to yourself, Leona coming to Ramshackle? No, that is too high effort for him.Â
The more you think on it now, the more amusing it seems. You chuckle as you imagine princely Leona napping on the dust covered sofa of your rundown dorm. Your laugh quickly turns into a yelp when you round the next turn of hall, headed toward the kitchen, and bump into someone. âAhh!â you cry out. âGeeze, calm down,â your intruder says, âItâs only me.â You stop shouting as you see your intruder more clearly; itâs only Ruggie.Â
âYou scared me to death! Gah!â you give Ruggie a mock punch to the arm. âWhat are you even doing here?â Ruggie gives you a strange look, âWhat did you do to him?â You tilt your head questioningly, âWho? What?â He rolls his eyes at you, âLeona. Heâs been strange since he got back from your meeting. What did you do to him?â You grimace at the thought of having to explain your confession to Ruggie, âUmâŚnone of your business! I guessâŚI guess youâll just have to deal with his moods.â Ruggie smiles at you, âNope. Heâs sent me to fetch you. So, itâs actually YOUR problem now. Shishishi.â Oh, great. Leona in a mood and he was all yours; just what you wantedâŚright?
You hesitate outside his dorm door, wondering if it was too late to give him time to cooldown, but of course he has heard you. âYou coming in Herbivore or am I going to have to come out there? You wonât like what happens if I do.â You grimaced, knowing heâd make good on that threat. You take a deep breath and head inside. You see Leona standing in front of his desk, not lounging on his bead. How rare, you think, for him to be so alert rather than napping.Â
You look at him bashfully, rubbing the back of your head with one hand. âUm, Iâm sorry if I burdened you before with myâŚgift. If you donât want it, you can just give it back.â Leonaâs eyes go wide before his expression becomes somewhat guilty seeming. âWhat, did something happen to my box? I spent a long time making that, you know!â He puts one hand to his temple and squeezes his eyes shut. âWhat do you want me to say? Iâm sorry?â You shake your head at him, âLeona! What did you do?â He reaches behind him on the desk and pulls something out. âIs that sand? You turned my heartfelt gift into sand?â Then you looked at it closer, really taking in what it was.
âItâs an hourglass. I filled it with the sand from your gift.â At this, his expression softens as he continues, âI guess I thought that Iâd give it back to you and you could use it to remember our time together. If that was something you still wanted.â You get a wistful look on your face, âAnd what if I just want more time together?â Leona smirks, âJust point me at anything that bothers you and Iâll make you as much sand as you need.â You scoff at him but canât keep a smile from growing on your face. âWhat do you suggest we do with this time?âÂ
His smile takes on a predatory edge. âOh, I had a few ideas.â You turn the hourglass over, allowing the sands to start spilling from one end to the other. âWhy donât you show me then.â He pulls you close and gives you a breathtaking kiss. When it ends, you lean in for more but Leona only turns his head to look at the hourglass, which has spent its sand. You roll your eyes and turn it over again before grabbing him and pulling him down to claim another kiss. When you part again, he turns his eyes to the hourglass and laughs. The sands had been stopped with your magic. âYouâre an awful bold one, arenât you?â You smile as you wrap your arms tighter around his neck. âIâd have to be to love someone like you.âÂ
Jamil feels very conflicted. Donât get him wrong, the first thing he felt was deep happiness that you shared his secret feelings. Then though, the bitterness rises. He isnât free to chase after love like a regular student, he is bound by his duty as a servant of the Asim household. Is this confession meaningless after all?
He reads your letter again and finds himself focusing on the opening statement. Change. Its something he has often longed for but found out of reach, so much so, that he questions if itâs even possible to change your situation. Only, look at you; youâve changed so much. It gives him hope that he may someday change his fate as well.
Holding your letter tightly, he thinks about the opportunity it represents. Itâs not just his chance to be with you but a chance to change his fate. That is something he canât pass up on. You are someone he canât pass up on. So, he will need a plan. Thankfully, Jamil is a denizen of Scarabia, founded on the mindfulness of the Sorcerer of Sands. Planning, he could do.
The sound of knocking caught your attention, taking you out of the book you had been reading. It takes you a moment to identify because the sound comes not from the door but from your window. That was somewhat alarming, considering your room is on the second floor. There is only one mischievous fae whoâd come calling at the window like that. You jump up from your desk and give the window a good shove to open it. âLilia, how many times do I have to tell you⌠oh, Jamil.â
To your great surprise, Jamil stood outside the window; a feat accomplished with the aid of a magic carpet. You look out at him and feel a smile slowly blooming on your lips. âWhatâs all this?â you ask playfully. Jamil smiles at you and holds out a hand in invitation, âYou showed me something magical today and I thought Iâd return the favor.â You grin, grasp his hand, and let him tug you over the windowsill onto the magic carpet. You settle yourself in next to Jamil and wrap an arm around him for safety. He smiles and turns to you, âDo you trust me?â You smile back in response and he pulls the carpet off and away onto a thrilling and wonderous ride.
It was an experience not to be forgotten. Jamil took you all over Sage Island, sometimes slowing to point out scenery or interesting sights, other times taking the carpet on sudden drops or turns; a sly grin appearing on his face if these maneuvers cause you to grasp him tighter. After a time, you find yourself back at Ramshackle Dorm, sitting on the roof and looking at the stars.Â
You gently squeeze the hand you are holding. Neither of you had spoken about the letter youâd sent but both of you acknowledging that there is something between you. However, the realities of Jamilâs life hold him back from speaking about what he wants and how he feels. His life is laid out like a pre-determined path with no room left for him to blaze his own trail. You have always known this but were still glad to have sent the letter. There was a sort of freedom in ending the secrecy, having your own feelings brought into the light.Â
âDo you really believe that?â Jamil asks suddenly. You blink up at the stars, âHmm? Believe what?â His gaze is locked on the darkened sky but you sense an intensity in it. âThat people can change. That your life can change.â You turn to look at the dark haired boy laying next to you. âYeah, I do. Whatever your situation, if you hang on, things can always change. Just look at me; coming here, learning magic⌠meeting you.â You give a please hum as you consider it. âEven today, my life has changed a lot. Right now, I feel like Iâve stepped into some fairy tale.âÂ
Jamil turns to look at you with a small frown. âOne where the royal ends up with a servant?â You chuckle at him. âIs that so bad?  I donât know, maybe that servant was a diamond in the rough. Either way, he is a prince to me.â Suddenly Jamil squeezes your hand very tightly, âAnd if things canât change? If in the end they donât end up together?â You rub your thumb comfortingly over his own and, after a moment, the pressure of his hold lightens. âAt least we will have this time. If I can, Iâll make it last forever.â You gaze at the star gemmed sky, sparkling above you like a cave of wonders, underneath which lies that which you both treasure most.

after receiving a low grade on your most recent english literature essay, you faced the risk of failing the class if your grades didn't improve significantly. fortunately, your english professor, who also supervised the universityâs newspaper, was in need of additional contributors and offered extra points if you joined. without hesitation, you agreed. although you weren't particularly passionate about journalism, you found it intriguing enough.
however, a few weeks ago, everything changed. an announcement was made regarding a contest, exclusively open to the twenty students involved with the newspaper. only one student would emerge as the winner, with their story featured on the front pageâa prestigious honour typically reserved for seniors or professors. additionally, the winning story would be published in the state newspaper, which would undoubtedly enhance your linkedin profile, or so you thought. but what truly excited you was the ultimate reward: exemption from all remaining english literature exams for the semester, ensuring a perfect a+ as the final grade. this meant you could forego the rest of the english lit classes, and it became your primary goalâto craft the best story and secure victory in the contest.
recently, it was discovered that the two superheroes of the moment were, in fact, students at wiskayok university. how the media obtained this information remained a mystery, but its authenticity had been confirmed. you knew that if you were able to expose the identities of these heroes, it would cause a frenzy and undoubtedly lead to your victory. was it ethical to reveal their identities? maybe not. did you want to spend your summer retaking english class? absolutely not. with that in mind, you channelled all your determination and energy into this story.
as the days passed, your obsession with this personal project grew stronger. you had to admit that ever since you were little, you secretly loved superheroes. so, even though your main goal was to win the contest, you also found genuine interest in it. staying late at school, hiding between the bleachers or on the rooftops, became a routine as you searched for any peculiar signs. you even managed to swipe the absences list from the principal's office and kept track of the students with the highest number of absences, considering them as your prime suspects.
your girlfriends, nat and lottie, tried to convince you to stop this endeavour multiple times, insisting it was dumb and a waste of timeâespecially since it left you with little free time for them. nonetheless, you remained stubborn as ever, even when lottie offered to get you a tutor who could help you over the summer.
it was a tuesday afternoon after class. you dropped off your girlfriends at the field for their soccer practice, promising them that you would go straight home and wait for movie night, something you hadn't done in a while. little did they know, instead of keeping that promise, you had arranged to meet up with two friends. you had paid them beforehand to stage a scene on the street: one pretending to be a burglar, and the other acting as the victim. the plan worked, and now you found yourself hiding inside an empty trash container, straining your ears to catch snippets of distant voices. carefully, you lifted the lid a few centimetres, giving yourself a limited view of spider-woman and black cat as they removed their suits and changed into their regular clothes, which they had stashed in a backpack. unfortunately, your line of sight only reached up to their hips, as lifting the lid any further would risk exposing yourself to their gaze.
that was until a putrid smell reached your nostrils, prompting you to discreetly turn on your phone's flashlight. as the light revealed a dead rat in the corner, you couldn't help but gag, dropping the lid with a loud thud.
"fuck," you muttered, covering your mouth and nose, attempting to stay quiet, praying they hadn't heard you. but it was too late; barely a second later, the lid was forcefully lifted, and the intense daylight flooded your vision, momentarily blinding you.
you were scared shitless, fully prepared to face none other than spider-woman and black cat, and boy, were you fucked. you didn't even bother thinking about making a run for it, already envisioning the worst possible outcomes.
"babe?" you heard, the surprise evident in the familiar voice, pulling you back to reality. in an instant, you opened your eyes and found lottie standing right in front of you. perplexed, you glanced beside her, catching sight of nat, whose arm was lifting the lid.
you rose to your feet, surveying the area, only to discover that the superheroes had vanished. "what are you doing here? you said you were heading straight home," nat questioned, furrowing her eyebrows.
you were about to reply, stumbling over your words as you tried to come up with an excuse when something caught your eye. it was the backpack lottie was carryingâthe same one spider-woman and black cat had used to retrieve their clothes just moments ago. shock washed over you, and the realization hit you like a bucket of cold water.
you stared at the backpack in disbelief, still trying to wrap your head around the entire situation. it all made sense now. their sudden disappearances, getting late to almost every single date, the frequent class absences, the mysterious phone calls. you knew they were up to something, but sure as hell you never thought it would be this. they werenât even on your suspect list.
lottie and nat slowly shifted their gaze toward each other, guilt and embarrassment written all over their faces. it was clear that neither of them had expected you to stumble upon them like this. "we can explain," lottie finally spoke up, her voice barely above a whisper.
"why didn't you tell me?" you inquired, furrowing your brows as you patiently waited for an explanation.
nat shifted nervously from one foot to the other before finally taking a deep breath and replying, "we wanted to, but⌠we didnât know how."
lottie nodded in agreement. "we didn't want to put you in danger, y/n, and we also didn't want you to worry," she added.
she began to explain further about her and nat's secret side gig. "we started doing this not long after meeting each other," she said, her voice laced with guilt.
nat stepped closer to you, her gaze apologetic yet determined at the same time. "and we know that keeping this from you wasnât fair, but we thought it was the best thing for our relationship."
you felt a wave of emotions surge through your body: anger, confusion, worry. part of you wanted to yell at them for lying and keeping secrets from you, while another part reminded yourself that they were only trying to protect you. but if something bad happened to them or even worseâif they died while doing thisâyou didn't know how you would cope with the guilt.
lottie seemed to sense your distress and quickly stepped forward, her face full of determination. âhey, everythingâs gonna be alright,â she said with a gentle smile, taking your hand in hers and soothingly stroking it with her thumb. âi promise.â
you sighed, tears welling up in your eyes. "i just want you both to be safe. i don't wanna lose you," you said, looking at them.
"but you won't," lottie reassured you. "we know how to take care of ourselves," she said.
"yeah, don't worry about us, babe," nat chimed in. "lotts' spidey senses are top-notch, and i have killer claws. see?" she showed her claws off with a mischievous grin, snarling playfully as she tried to make you laugh.
âdumbass," you said with a smile, nudging her shoulder. nat retracted her claws and used her thumb to wipe away your tears. "seriously though, don't worry. we'll be fine. and our top priority will always be to protect you and make sure youâre okay. we love you, y/n, a lot." she moved her hand to your cheek, softly stroking it.
"i love you too," you replied sincerely, hugging both of them tightly. they kissed your head simultaneously as lottie rubbed your back and nat stroked your hair. "but if you ever hide something like this from me again, i swear i'll kill you," you warned them as you playfully tugged their ears simultaneously, making them complain.
"okay, okay, we get it!" nat cried out as you finally let them go.
âowie," lottie said, rubbing her ear with a pained expression.
"you two act all tough in those suits but can't handle a little ear tug," you teased them.
before you could even laugh, one of them lifted you up and carried you away in her arms.
"holy fuck!" you yelled out in fear. "get me the fuck down!"
you tightly held onto lottie's body, closing your eyes shut as she held you securely in her arms. she had put her mask back on and was swinging between buildings with her spider webs. nat was right behind, using her claws and speed to leap from building to building, quickly catching up.
you could feel the wind rushing by your face as you sped through the afternoon sky, the scenery below becoming a blur. just as you were starting to get used to the exhilarating feeling, lottie gently landed on the ground, bringing you to your destination. opening your eyes, you realized you were on your room's balcony.
"what are we doing here? aren't you two going back to practice?" you asked.
"the last thing i wanna do after dealing with some burglar jerk is going back to school and putting up with taissa's annoying-ass team captain attitude," nat replied wearily, entering your room and tossing her backpack on the floor before flopping face-down onto your bed.
"yeah," lottie agreed. "and we thought this would be a perfect time to start movie night," she said as she hopped onto the bed beside nat and patted the spot in the middle, looking at you.
"fine⌠but we're gonna have a serious conversation about this later," you warned them. nat just hummed dismissively in response. "and you better start installing life360 on your phones," you commanded.
nat and lottie exchanged glances and made complaining faces at each other. "see? this is why i didn't want to tell her," nat muttered, her voice muffled by the pillows as she plopped her face back down.
âif you donât do it i swear to god iâllââ you started to say, but your words were cut off as lottie shot a spiderweb toward your mouth, silencing you. you began to mumble angrily, trying to remove it, which caught nat's curious gaze. she burst into laughter at the sight, and lottie couldn't help but join in. just as you managed to take off the spiderweb and were about to scold them, lottie shot another one, this time towards your body, pulling it swiftly and causing you to fly towards the bed, landing right between them.
as soon as you landed, they snuggled up to you and showered you with kisses all over your face, making you giggle and try to stop them with your hands.
"still mad at us?" lottie asked once they stopped.
âmmm, not if you let me pick todayâs movie,â you negotiated.
"fair," nat said, grabbing the remote as the three of you snuggled together under the covers.

"Oh god, have you seen the new girl ?" South park headcanons with a really pretty+feminine Y/n <//3 (Requested)
(All characters are in highschool +aged up, about 14-15)
!! GIRLBOSS Y/N AU đđđ
You always knew you were pretty, if beauty was a weapon, you would be locked and loaded. (Ginny and Georgia reference LMAO)
Your parents weren't the best, but they were filthy rich. So you had all the freedom you got, especially since being the only child can have its MANY perks. You would always go out with your friends to shopping malls, thrifts stores, salons, and allll thatt gooddd stufff
When you moved, you and your parents moved into this really big house. It costed an ass load of money but you could afford it, y'know, cause your rich n' shii.
When you knew it would be your first day at south park high, you got up at 5AM, curled your hair, did your makeup and put on your cutest outfit. Your pretty smile was the cherry on top. Of course, you missed your friends. But you were still excited to be going to a new school. Maybe your life could be better here. Without all the drama, and rumors spreading about you.
Once those doors opened, all eyes were on you. People were whispering and a few people even FAINTED. F A I N T E D. But you just laughed and brushed it off, you would always get these reactions from everyone. For you, this was normal. You already had all your classes set, and your locker was decorated to your liking. You owned the school now, and even the teachers accepted their fate.
Entering your classroom, you were most intrigued by four boys. A boy with black hair, a boy in an orange hoodie with blonde hair, a red head, and a very degrading boy with brown hair who seemed to really get on everyone's nerves.
Everyone stopped what they were doing, and for the first time in years, the classroom went silent. The same classroom those annoying boys (from what you heard) were in. You walked up to the front, and with a sickingly sweet smile and a pretty voice, you introduced yourself.
You twirled your hair, made eye contact, and spoke with perfect confidence. And the whole class, was instantly flustered by your beauty. Cartman decided what would happen if he tried messing with you. He pulled your chair, which Kyle pushed back before you could sit down. And he even tried spitting gum in your hair, but missed when you bent down to grab your pencil. He was getting pretty annoyed since he couldn't do anything, but he wanted to try one last thing.
Insulting you infront of the whole school.
You were sitting in the cafeteria. With Wendy, Bebe, Clyde, Tweek and Craig. You all were giggling and having fun until Cartman screamed your name across the room, making everyone turn heads.
"Hey Wh0re! What's it like being the center of attention?" | "Excuse me? Would you care to say that again?" | "You heard me, bitch." | "Sorry, Eric. But I dont really think I wanna be wasting my time listening to bullshit from a cocky fatass."
The room started laughing so hard, Cartman's face was turning red. He got played by his own game. Gave him a slap in the face with that one. Kyle's drink was literally about to explode out his nose and you just sat there, face to face, smiling at Cartman.
God you were such a Girlboss, and a total hottie.
The girls (Wendy's girlgroup) Invited you for a sleepover at Bebe's house, and you accepted right away! You had made friends with the entire school in just one day, I think it's pretty obvious that your the most popular girl in school now.
âĄ
At the sleepover, you and the girls shared your music tastes. After you shared your playlist with everyone, they blasted your music on Wendy's radio. <//3 Melanie martinez -> Taylor swift -> Lana del rey -> MARINA -> Nessa Barret, and all the latest pop songs!
(Until the guys decided to break into the sleepover, and they had to stay over as well.)

The Perfect Moment
Hey! I know it's been forever and a day since I've updated this series. Thanks to all of you patient people who love Grayson and Flower
Graysonâs talk of inheritance has me thinking about the mysterious box thatâs been living on my kitchen table. I rip the tape off. Inside, I find an envelope sitting on top of another box; this one wooden.
How original.Â
A flashdrive clatters onto the table when I pull out the letter.
Take care of them.
T. Hawthorne
The last thing I need is to be pulled into one of this manâs puzzles. Then again, I may have pulled Grayson to the forefront of the rumor mill. I take the box and flashdrive upstairs. As soon as I plug it into my laptop a passphrase prompt appears.
Wilde
I type in my immediate thought, a line from the book that allegedly had several pages removed by the editor without the authorâs knowledge. A line that remains an unexplainable favorite.
âI represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commitâ
The text box shakes on the screen and the line disappears. The passphrase likely relates to the four words of his letter, but it canât be so obscure that I wouldnât know it. I picked up the wooden box, not much bigger than a tea tin, and gave it a shake. Thereâs a light rattling, probably whateverâs inside. The lid has eight diamonds embedded in its surface. Seven of them form a vague outline of a house. If the house had no floor and one side was longer than the other. The eighth diamond sits alone at one corner. I try to take the top off, but it doesnât move, sliding it doesnât work.
I stare at the box. One problem at a time. I know I have to tell Grayson about the incident, but heâs already dealing with a lot. Heâll be upset, though probably not enough to argue about it. Even if he does, thereâs no way it could be as bad as our last argument. I doubt anything could compare to those weeks more than a year ago; the pained, rage-filled glances. Constantly running into each other at school, around town, and drawing breath to speak before thinking better of it. The agonizing distance that grew each day, but nothing hurt quite as much as the victorious grin on the face of that strawberry-blonde sociopath.Â
âShe just made a joke,â Graysonâs defensive words echoed through my mind as the fight played out again.Â
âShe humiliated him and you know it was deliberate.â I had to force myself to speak normally. No matter how much I wanted to yell, I knew who I was arguing and there was no way in hell that Iâd raise my voice first.
âSo what if she was testing him?âÂ
âOh? Thatâs how youâre spinning this?â
Grayson took a step closer, âThe only one here thatâs spinning is you. I get in a relationship and suddenly youâre having this identity crisis; hanging around this guy with questionable work ethic and unrealistic aspirations for his future.â
I rake my hands through my hair, âYou don't like Cade because heâs on scholarship AND lets himself have fun and relax. We have opportunities people would die for. Cade worked hard to get where he is and knows it doesnât stop here.â
âShow me these opportunities, Flower,â Grayson scoffs, âAfter that gap year, my life is over.â
âThen why are you wasting your time letting yourself get manipulated by some greedy girl?â My raging words echoed through the great room.
âThere it is,â he shook his head, âyouâre jealous because of how much time I spend with her.â
The next several seconds are painfully clear in my mind and probably one of Hawthorne Houseâs many security cameras. Both of us acting on instinct, Grayson grabbing my wrist as I walked away, me breaking the grip and shoving his arm back hard. Grayson tried to blink away the tears welling in his eyes. I had walked out before he could draw breath to apologise.
I shuddered at the memory. Grayson had apologised weeks later for everything. Sometime between me ending things with Cade and EmilyâŚ.
Willa rubbed her face against my arm, clearly tired of waiting for my attention. She starts purring when I scratch her head. âI donât think Gray will be too upset about the incident, do you?â
She just lays across the keyboard, deciding which problem Iâll deal with first.Â
*******************************
I played with the little box while waiting for Grayson to show up. He finally walks in when Iâm tracing the design for what feels like the millionth time.Â
âYou said you needed to tell me something.â Grayson sat beside me, momentarily distracted by the wooden box.
âItâs about this morning.â
âSpecifically?â âWhen I got home and Olive was here.â My heart pounds as I prepare for what comes next. I keep my eyes on the box, sliding my finger from diamond to diamond. âMy class heard everything about last night.â
Grayson chokes, âBy everything you mean?â
I nod, âEvery detail I told Olive.â
He takes a deep breath, âOkay.â
Grayson rises to stand by the window, watching the late afternoon sun sink lower. âWell, thereâs been nothing on gossip sites today.â He massages his forehead, âYou have that interview tomorrow about that slasher book you wrote senior year, right.â
âYeah.â
Grayson lets out a long breath, âMaybe thereâs nothing to worry about. If someone asks you about it or anything remotely close to the topic, let me know. Weâll deal with it together.â

@more-than-a-princess
In Anzu's opinion, Alumni Day was a big waste of time at the start of the school year, and even someone with such a lax school work ethic as her could see that the energy would be better spent on giving orientation to the first-years, or something like that. HPA already made a ton of money from government grants and Reserve Course Tuition Fees, didn't it? So what reason was there to roll out the red carpet for a bunch of has-beens who had moved on to mostly-normal lives, in hopes of getting them to cough up some money?
Now, where there was a red carpet of any kind, one could often find Anzu Tachibana there to walk it, whether or not it was intended for her in the first place, but unfortunately, Alumni Day came with its own unique challenges given specially to her - namely, keeping her stupid sister busy. "You know," Haruna muttered as she looked around at the various displays set up to welcome the alumni, "they give a lot of attention to the people who show up only once a year - if that - but as someone who actually works here, I can't say I ever feel so appreciated."
"Well," Anzu said, reaching out to straighten a pinned picture of the new first year class, "they know what your salary is, so maybe they already know your broke ass isn't donating." To that, Haruna rolled her eyes, accompanied by a buzzing of her cell phone from inside her bag - one that she clearly wasn't in any rush to check. "I should flick your forehead for that." "If you could even reach it from down there."
In between bickering and barbs, Anzu noticed one of her friends standing out in the courtyard, and took the first available opportunity to run off from her sister's side. "Sonia-san!" With significantly less force behind it than her usual rushing hugs - Sonia wasn't Shinobu, after all - she wrapped her arms around the other girl with a tight, warm embrace. "Hi! It's so good to see you! Did you have a good spring vacation?"
In Anzu's case, the few weeks between the end of one school year and the start of another should have been prime time for some R&R. Instead, she'd spent the bulk of the time back in Kyoto, checking in on her dad, guesting in a few performances, and taking lots of cherry blossom photos. Well, it wasn't like that was the worst way to spend some time, even if she desperately could use a host rubbing her shoulders and praising her. She had to assume Sonia was similarly busy, especially since Shinobu hadn't mentioned anything about them spending any time together without her, much to her frustration.
By the time she'd let go of Sonia, Haruna had caught up to her. She was probably fifteen centimeters shorter than Anzu, her bleach-blonde hair framing either side of her face, and then gathered in the back into a loose ponytail, and her face done up with carefully-applied, professional makeup. In Anzu's opinion, they didn't look much alike, or have much in common. Even her fashionable outfit - the black blouse with a lilac ribbon over white pants, golden hoop earrings, and sensible flats - was fashionable in a way that Anzu would never find very interesting.
"Oh, this is my older sister," Anzu said, as though it were an afterthought. "She's here too." Really, the only thing similar about them, she thought, was their eyes. "Hello, Nevermind-san," Haruna said with a small wave and a perfect smile. Even if she was annoying, even if she wasn't pretty or interesting or anything like that, Anzu had to admit that her sister had at least some aura. "Haruna Tachibana, 72nd class. I work as a counselor here, but I only think we've passed by each other in the halls a few times, not ever been formally introduced."
The way she said it made Anzu figure that Haruna understood the reason why. Any personal problems she had probably were only to be shared with someone on her family's payroll, or under their influence. "So, how are you planning on appropriately honoring the alumni that came before you today, Nevermind-san," Haruna teased with a demure smile. It was Anzu's turn to roll her eyes, followed by a shake of her head. "You don't have to listen to her, Sonia-san," she cautioned. "My sister is obnoxious."

Waaaah~! Thank you for reblogging my ask game, Unni!
Since you're open to answering questions, can I ask 4, 18, and 20 for Akari?
AHHH thanks for the ask as always Erika!!
4. Why did you give them the name they have? Whats the in universe reason for their name?
Im gonna be honest IM BAD AT NAMING THINGS đđ So I happen to choose Akari because it's a common girl's name and it sounds pretty (surely if it's a common name it won't have a weird meaning RIGHT???!!!) At first I was scared bc apparently the "aka" in akari can also mean red which like, Akari's obviously not a red girly đ
But her name actually ended up having a beautiful meaning to it (Thank God) The "ć" in her name stands for "light" or "brilliance" I believe. Coincidentally, I also have "ć" in my name too. I believe it's associated with smartness (at least in chinese culture) So I believe Akari was given that name by her parents because she is the light in their life, and they want her to grow up as a brilliant person.
18. Imagine meeting your oc what would you imagine you'd say to them or do with them
It's gonna be SO messy and complicated if she knew that I created her. In all seriousness I don't think Akari would like me at all. Anyways that aside.. If things were a little simpler, I'd love to just hang out with her, play dress up and do cosplays and other fun stuffs. I could give her words of encouragement about the things that I wish I could tell myself too, but in reality I think I will just go :
She can do it because she's fast and I'm as slow as a turtle.
20. Share a random piece of trivia about the creation of your oc (scrapped idea or changes you didnt expect to make)
This is her old design:
Initially, her vibes was a lot darker and edgier, but somehow she got softer and pinker the more I drew her.
Tbh Akari looks way cooler here, but her design feels a little messy. There were many cool ideas but nothing came out of it. In the end she's just kinda there. I originally wasn't gonna ship her with Giyuu bc I was a giyuu x shinobu shipper back then and thought they would be canon XD (I just prefer them as bros now) It doesnt help that I was so busy with school and its the pandemic, so my creative juices were little to none. But one idea that has always stayed is Akari having a good relationship with the girls, especially Mitsuri. After that I forgot about her...
Then I took a year off university, so more time to draw. I was on my way to moving on from kny, until I saw the swordsmith teaser and was like "Okay this show helped me get through pandemic, why not post some art to pay tribute at least." one art became more and suddenly I realized I wanna revisited Akari again bc omg this oc has so much wasted potential I need to fix this đą Guess I wont be moving on from kny soon đ¤Ą
I thought about different breathing styles, illusion, star breathing etc. I decided that Akari is a battle seamstress character so I thought of silk breathing bc you know silk but I was like: "ok shes a seamstress who does seamstress powers?? thats it?? she needs something more specific" Eventually I settled for Camellia flowers bc I think its perfect for her in every way.

Heaven's Princess (Part 1)
Go To Hell
Prologue || Masterlist || Part 2
Song(s) of the chapter: Backstabber (Kesha) + Oh Ana (mother mother)
Looking up, water dripped through cracks in the roof. The house was in poor enough conditions, but it always got worse after bad storms.
âDear, come here. Stay away from the leaking spots and wear this, it's cold.â A sweet woman's voice offering a dry coat. Moving over to her, putting the coat on was a small blonde haired child. âMy sweet baby, you don't deserve to live like this.â
~~~~~
âHere sweetie! I was able to save up enough to buy some meat AND veggies! I made your favorite!â The portion set on the table was small but delicious and fresh. âIt's all for you! You deserve it for being the best darling daughter!â
~~~~~
âThere's my gorgeous girls!â
âAww sweetheart!â They're love even prevailed through tough times. âCome here Bia give your Daddy a hug!â Running into their arms, warmth and tender love enveloped the small girl.
~~~~~
âI'm sorry we can't give you better⌠You deserve the world.â Mother's voice cried.
âI know mom.â
~~~~~
âReally think you're better than everyone here? Hahahah! As if you can't even get new clothes! You look like you found those in a dumpster, though with your home life you probably did!â
~~~~~
It was irritating to watch other kids at school. Always dressed in new clothes bought by their parents. Bragging about being taken to new restaurants. Talking about how their parents spoil them rotten. Pathetic, they don't even deserve what they have. Even being the top of all her classes, everyone looked down on her.
~~~~~
A dry dark night was lit ablaze from the flames engulfing a small rundown home. Heat engulfed the bodies inside, no one knew the cause nor really cared.
Heaven had been an interesting experience for Biatreh. So bright and gentle, however she was unaccompanied by her parents. As expected only she was worthy to get here. Unfortunately she still wasn't super happy, she was ranked 2nd lowest in Heaven's hierarchy. Just a winner, nothing special since there are thousands just like her.
One day she stumbled across a performance and met the Princess of Heaven. She was a very kind girl, full of energy. However Bia hated how sympathetic the girl was towards people. She wasted her energy on people that should be below her. She barely did anything for her title nor does she use it. It was a waste on someone like her. However being friends with Eliora had its perks, maybe she could help Eliora be more worthy of her title. Soon after befriending the princess, Biatreh met Sera, the head seraphim. Biatreh and Sera shared a lot of ideals and beliefs.
This friendship with Sera made Biatreh more aware of the type of person the princess was. Her sympathy wasnât only towards lower ranks in Heaven but also towards those on Earth, and worse Hell. Bia thoroughly expressed her feelings of disgust openly towards the idea of sympathy for sinners, this made a discussion between the two angels.
âThe princess needs to learn why there shall not be any sympathy towards such things!â
âRelax Bia. Though I agree the best we can do is steer her down the right path. Luckily sheâs not much of a dreamer like Lucifer before the fall, but she is as kind-hearted as he was.â
âThat might lead to her downfallâŚâ
âUnfortunately if her innocence is ruined or she defies heaven because of it, yes, it will be.â
Elioraâs POV
âAnd here is one of my favorite animals, foxes! Oh, and next-â You excitedly showed Biatreh around Heavenâs zoo.
âAurora* calm down, they're just animals. Nothing I havenât seen on Earth.â You pout before your face lights up again.
âDo you have a favorite animal?â
âHm. I quite like sheep. They were my favorite animal as a child.â
âOh! So thatâs why you have sheep features! Aw that must be nice!â
âI guess so. Why do you like foxes?â
âWell I think they look very beautiful, they are also like the perfect combination of dogs and cats!â
âFoxes donât have a very good reputation or at least donât symbolize good things.â
âIâve heard, but that's like saying every human is bad because some sin? All the foxes Iâve met are very sweet, if not a bit cheeky and silly at times!â You giggle, Bee wasnât the first person to ask you this. You catch a glimpse in her eye that makes you feel like she didnât like that answer all that much. Before long you both are hungry for some lunch so you take her to a favorite spot of yourâs.
âGranny, it's good to see you!â You quickly run into the older womanâs arms as she hugs you tightly.
âHello darling! Come by for some lunch, and you brought a friend. Come deary, let me fix you up something.â You were led to a table where you were then given some menu suggestions to pick from. Soon enough, Grandma Estelle treated you both to a good helping of food, insisting you eat more since you were so young before leaving to go situate other customers.
âSo you come here to eat pretty often, huh?â
âYeah! It's so nice here and the food is amazing!â
âDo you ever eat at higher scale places or have servants that, well, treat you since youâre a princess?â
âThatâs how human kingdoms are run, Bee! Heaven is a lot different structure wise.â
âI see, but youâre still of higher rank are you not?â
âDoes it really matter?â You raised a brow, confused where this was going.
âWouldnât you intimidate a lot of people from going to lower status places or overwhelm the small business with your popularity?â
âI mean some people get nervous around me but Iâm just another angel in Heaven?â
âYouâre Heaven born, a seraphim, Godâs princess, youngest sister to the 7 virtues? Must I say more. You really need to start treating yourself as such. How else will you be able to help your people?â
âHow does that help my people?â You feel hesitant, the wings on your head lowering tucking themselves in. You didnât know how to feel about what she said âIâm a princess, yes, but I'm just another angel in Heaven. Besides being holy and good, is there more I really should be doing?â
âWell, authority to have people respect your voice and opinion for one. Youâre not an average angel, Aurora. You also should start involving yourself in politics. Itâd be good for you to know more about hell and earth. Maybe work under Sera with Emily? Youâre going to be an adult soon. You should start actually taking your future seriously.â
âI have been! Iâve been observing other upper ranks doing their work and assisting if needed.â
âBut you need your own job. You canât gain the power of an archangel if you donât.â
âI donât care to be an archangel or a separate title!â
âYou should. It doesnât look good on you if you donât work as hard as youâre family. Not to mention isnât that why they took you in? To replace the last seraph in the family?â
âCan we not talk about this anymore? You clearly donât understand my family.â
âMy apologies.â
â...Itâs fine.â You couldnât stay mad at her. Sheâs a winner and probably heard gossip from older angels. Though you didnât understand why sheâd want you to replace Lucifer as an archangel. She probably thought others were temporarily taking over his job. Brushing it off, you continue lunch on a slightly tense note.
Friendship with Bee was hard. She didnât seem to like how you viewed your title, but she also seemed to care greatly about you having a good future. The past year has been stressful. Not too long after your 149th birthday, your father had fallen into yet another depressive episode. This time, you couldnât help much since you had started working more under Sera alongside Emily. Though you were grateful for the experience you wanted to go and help your father. Bee and Sera were too insistent on it not being your job and making you work hard to learn for your future.
Soon, you were called to a meeting room with just Bee and Sera, âPrincess we have an important lesson today. Youâve shown immense progress in your abilities, so we wanted to let you in on something important since we think youâre ready.â She and Bia started to explain the exterminations. Your heart shattered. What they had been doing went against everything. Thereâs no way your family approved this.
âSera, who gave permission for this?â You kept a poker face, though obviously not happy about this.
âThis is for the safety of Heaven.â
âSera, do any of the virtues know? Does my father? Does yourâs?!â Your anger bubbled up, feeling like it was about to burst. âSera is going behind Heavenâs back! How could she do something so cruel?!â
âPrincess Iâd thought youâd understand this by now. Heaven is Holy and must be protected.â Your wings appear on your back and spread out far.
âSera this goes against everything! You don't even have permission! What would the upper ranks say?!â You yelled, desperate to get her to realize how serious this was.
âBia, do what you must. This canât get out. I must meet with the returning exterminators.â Your eyes flash over to Biatreh.
âYou knew about this?! Is that why youâve been trying to- You wanted me to convince the uppers?!â
âWell yes and no. I could care less what the upper ranks think, but if you could actually do something worthy of your title for once, it would have been amazing. However, you've disappointed me.â Suddenly youâre thrown to the floor on your stomach. Pain seers through your wings next. You look back to see her ripping them off in half. One by One. Once she has all of them, she puts a foot on your back, your shredded wings bleeding profusely. âThese would go nicely next to Luciferâs would they not. Iâve heard they do this to all fallen angels, though the entire wing.â
You are infuriated how could she do something like this. âWell you wonât be doing that. No one so cruel can hold my wings like a trophy!â Suddenly your wings are on fire burning the ones in her hands to ashes and burning the rest on your back down to the bases.
âWell I guess you should be going now before you heal.â Suddenly you're falling through a portal of red.
Turning around, you slowly watch the sky as you fade in and out of consciousness. A weird, hot feeling makes your body feel like a fire is trying to burn your very being. Sharp pains on different parts of your body. This moment feels like an eternity before you feel someone grasp you safely in their arms. Your body finally gives into unconsciousness as you hear someone gently speak, âI got you.â
Heaven feels a shift. Something is not right. Emily alerts the virtues of Elioraâs odd absence from work. The siblings immediately search for her presence in Heaven. They canât find it. They canât let God know, or else his days of wrath may come back, and no one would be spared. Right now, they need to find Elly before sheâs put in any more danger than she may be in. Word was told to high ranked angels. Even Adam was let in on it who was pissed someone might have hurt the princess. Everyone could tell this wasnât of her own doing.
*Biatrehâs nickname for Eliora (yes based on Disney sleeping beauty princess)
Welp Bia is a little messed up in the head. Jealousy be damned i guess?
Anyways I tried to rush this so I could actually start the story (part 2 is written and just needs to be revised then onto drafting part 3!!)

Hardly Friends.
03. When he Proves That to me.
Pairings- Megumi x Reader, Slight Nobara x Yuji (mostly platonic)
Synopsis- Megumi and Y/N used to be inseparable as children and just started drifting apart when they start high school they meet again in college. But you are roommates with each others best friends. Nobara drags Y/N to a party one night without knowing Yuji had asked Megumi too, they start their journey to regain their lost friendship on a two week trip.
Word Count:
1 night. 1 singular night you had left to sleep in your oh so comfortable bed, and private space. Maki said sheâd look after Mochi, your cat although Yuji says itâs the shared cat. Everything packed and ready to go, check. The house would be looked after, check. Mochi has her favourite treats fully stocked, check. Everything seemed to be in order and all was good.
You and Yuji had decided to go out for dinner so there wasnât a mess left in the kitchen before it would be left for two weeks. âLetâs get rice bowlsâ Yuji suggested, âIâd rather we get thai foodâ there was a little back and forth until it was decided on Sushi. Getting a booth and sitting down Yuji wasted no time in asking the long dreaded question. âAre you and Megumi going to be able to get along on this trip?â. God this whole thing was so annoying. Why couldnât the two of you just get along with each other? One day itâs awful tension that sticks to the air and suffocates everyone else around, or the conversation just flows and everything is good. Would you have to worry about this on and off bullshit the whole two weeks? âI donât know Yuu, Iâll be civil with himâ pausing to think about what should be said next not to start an argument. âI honestly just want things to go back to how they used to be, but heâs so stand off-ish with me, and it feels like itâs only meâ. Yuji smiled brightly, âYou know he wants to go back to how things used to be as too.â
Shocked would be an understatement to the reaction stuck on your face. He didnât wanna be a jerk anymore? He wanted to go back to being inseparable? Was Yuji lying to get you to try harder to be civil with him? Thatâs the most logical reason, different thoughts raced through your mind but you stuck with that conclusion. âIâll believe it when he proves that to me.â The conversation was dropped after that.
-
Loud knocks against your bedroom door awoke you from your slumber as a chirpy Nobara opened it. Forgetting Yuji had given her a key to the apartment you freaked out. âWhat the hell are you doing in here?! What time is it?â Still half asleep and slurring words, eyes starting to focus on her. âGet up and get ready, we have 15 minutes before we have to leave for the airport.â As quick as she entered the room she left, probably to raid the fridge for a quick snack. Sitting up and wiping the drool from your mouth, instinctively grabbing the phone from its charger to check the time. 4:05am. Perfect because of course the flight had to be this early in the morning. The flight wouldnât be that long, an hour and a half at most you could dress cute or like a total bum. The thought of being someoneâs airport crush urged you to put a cute outfit on.
You slammed yours and Yujiâs luggage into the trunk of Nobaraâs car, âDo we have everything? Are you forgetting anything Yuji?â asking for the third time since everything started getting loaded in the car. You could practically see the lightbulb go off above his head as he took off back inside shouting a quick âone minute!â Sighing you seated yourself in the car quietly, looking to the front Nobara scrolling on her phone and Megumi peacefully slept in the passenger seat. He looked like a nice guy for once in his life when he wasnât frowning or scowling at you. One of his eyes shot open as the other car door opened in the backseat, and of course he caught you staring and made a remark about it which pissed you off. Looking to Yuji he had a goddam neck pillow. He could NOT forget his neck pillow and now you were running 5 minutes behind schedule.
âI am not waiting any longer so if you forgot something youâll have to do withoutâ Nobara said sternly as she whipped out of the parking garage earning a âyes maâamâ from everyone.
-
âWhy did we have to be here 2 hours early?â Both you and Yuji groaned. âDeal with itâ Megumi mumbled. Great, thatâs the second time heâs been a jerk and itâs only 5:15am. Your flight didnât leave until 7:30am, although the four of everyone were pretty far back in security. Remembering you hadnât eaten wondering when your stomach would start begging for something to eat and on que it did. âDoes anyone wanna get something to eat?â looking around Yuji shook his head and Nobara said sheâd hold everyoneâs spot in line since he had in fact had something back at the apartment. That left Megumi, who would have been your last pick anyways especially after the comments heâs already made today.
âYeah sure, Iâll goâ He says as he handed his stuff to Yuji and walked towards all the airport fast food restaurants. Browsing in awkward silence Megumi finally spotted a cafe asking if you were cool with grabbing food there. Walking out with three iced coffees and one black coffee as well as some breakfast pastries, you were satisfied. âDid Nobara tell you much about where weâre staying or anything?â. âNo not much, just that weâre going to Osakaâ he nodded as acknowledgment. So weird.
By time you both had gotten back to the airport security Nobara and Yuji were waving for you to hurry up as they were close to being next in line. Rushing over and handing everyone there belonging items, everything went over smoothly and it was almost time to board the plane.
Yuji and Nobara were talking amongst each other as Megumi just scrolled through his phone double tapping it occasionally. Nothing to eventful, just the sound of families arguing, snoring and flights being announced. Finally it was your flight that was called to board, excitedly everyone picked up there stuff and was off. âGuys wait, one air port selfie! please!â the only person not to say no was Yuji, of course.
A window seat, the best seat and it was all yours. Nobara made her way into her seat and slumped down. âI think the flight attendant is checking ticketsâ Nobara said pointing down the isle, reaching over her to see. The flight attendent was indeed checking tickets, Nobara quickly handed everyoneâs tickets out. Yuji and Megumi were sat behind you.
The flight attendant finally reached Megumiâs and Yujiâs seats reading off her clip board âYuji Itadori and Nobara Kugisaki?â the flight attendant looked up as she eyed them down, Nobara was clearly a feminine name and neither of them were a girl. Yuji shot his hand up âIâm Itadori! But that isnât Nobara.â Nobara turned around to butt into the conversation. âIâm Nobara Kugisaki but weâre travelling together, I thought it would be okay if Megumi and I switched seats?â
âWell itâs not. You need to switch back. immediately.â She puffed her chest out in pride like she actually did something and walked off to continue her check.
âŚMan. Why were you always getting out into awkward situations with Megumi?
prev | master list | next

Yuji lyinâ or is megumi not a hateful jerk?đ chapter four should be out soon, i be workin and shiđ¤ Also next chapter will just be small filler (iâm sorry donât hate me. i just need to get these parts over and done with so we can move onto the actual story!!

on the 8th of this month, wii u and 3ds servers are shutting down, and i really cannot stress enough how horrible that is not just on a preservation point but how it affects the future of gaming and i think the monster hunter games on both consoles put that into perspective.
ignoring the overall boom in at least 3ds online play because of how easy it is to hack it, i noticed a lot of games are focused more on matchmaking than anything and itâs depressing. while i havenât done any of 3uâs hub stuff yet, 4u is a perfect example of why we need online hubs.
i mean aside from how wrong val habarâs hubâs gonna look without players in it especially when an entire lively cutscene shows it off, there is nothing like how hubs worked in old school. 3u and 4/4uâs hubs arenât locked behind capcom servers and frankly it was all the more welcoming. youâre given so much incentive to interact with players. speaking from my own experiences since i still play online from time to time, the amount of people i met through and talked with in the span of 3-4 hour sessions did help me get used to actually talking and coordinating with others. learned a lot of useful tips, too.
idk thereâs something about being forced into a lil hunter family for awhile that is completely unmatched. just being put into online matchups doesnât. i feel like thereâs a lot more toxicity when playing with randos period since you arenât forced to get along. you donât even need voice chat for it yet unless you do enable vc or youâre playing with friends, it does make it harder to connect with others.
guâs switch servers are still up but the problem there comes from how the nintendo switch does online. first ok switchâs online servers suck ass. iâve had more problems with it than i did with the 3ds and the 3ds is significantly older and is on weaker hardware that shouldnât be acceptable. but also you have to pay for the online stuff in a subscription format which automatically alienates a good chunk of players. why pay for a crappy online service anyways especially when itâs a lot to begin with and people do not have that kind of money to waste anymore. unless you consistently play on a switch there is no reason to get it. i noticed back in the animal crossing new horizons days how quickly the online dies off mainly because thereâs not much to do. new leaf had a hub of its own in a sense (aka the entire town), especially with tortimer island having mini games. after the acnh boom there was nothing, and really the only people who had their islands open were ones for turnip prices and if they had someone like celeste. youâd go in, do whatever, then leave.
old school monster hunter has what i believe to be the most ideal online play and the fact that itâs being taken away is genuinely depressing. there are currently work in progress 3ds servers being made, namely pretendo, but as wonderful as they are, i donât think itâs fair to anyone that the only way you can see your online friends is through fan servers youâll have to go through a process to even try and play online.

hey! i saw your craig and tweek piece, and i loved it ahah, i was wondering if you write for south park, and if u do can we get ler! craig and lee! tweek?? like if tweek is struggling with his anxiety and craig cheers him up. if not its all good, hope u have a good day/night, take care of yourself ^^
Damn, this was a throwback. Been awhile since I've done anything South Park, hope you enjoy!
Ler: Craig
Lee: Tweek
Summary: Tweek's anxiety was rampant, his nerves completely shot. Craig helps him calm down, and have a good laugh.
Warnings: swearing (of course). This is a tickle fic, so if you don't like that, scroll away!
He couldn't belive it. His parents, his legal guardians, left him home alone for the week. True, he was 16, but that's a lot of responsibility! He could forget to lock the doors, someone could break in, steal his families prized possessions, and then the house is on fire! On top of all that, he still had school!
He stumbled through getting ready, his shirt-buttoning skills even worse than usual. Tweek didn't even bother with his hair, knowing the comb would do more harm than good. He didn't see the time, and almost missed his bus.
Craig's day was pretty average. His family were their normal level of assholes, annoying but manageable. When he saw Tweek before school, he knew it would be a long day. The blonde was crawling in his skin, flinching at every noise, and jittering like he had seven expresso shots. While that was probably true, he needed help to wind down. Lucky for him, Craig's got a plan.
...
School was over, along with Tweek's composure. He was on the verge of a breakdown when Craig walked over to him. "Hey, I'm coming over your house." No room for argument or overthinking. The boy flinched away, nervously laughing. "Hehe, sure, w-why not? It's not like a millLIONn things can g-go wrOng!" Craig clapped his shoulder, guiding him to the bus. The driver didn't care enough to question why a new kid jumped on.
The ride was quiet, aside from the tapping of Tweek's foot. Craig put his headphones on, listening to music. He sat his hand on the blonde's leg, trying to ground him. It sort of worked, but he was still a nervous wreck.
When they arrived at his house, Tweek fumbled with the keys, dropping them a few times. Craig helped, holding his hand and guiding the keys in. They tossed their bags in a closet and sat on the couch, deciding to watch a movie. At least, they tried.
"What about Jurassic Park ?" Tweek shook his head, going on a rant. "No! Th-those movies have a lot of nOIse, what if someone thinks w-we're in trouble and calls the COPS!" Craig rolled his eyes, moving past the fifth shot-down idea. This is getting old.
He grabbed Tweek's shoulders and pinned him to the couch, looking him dead in the eyes. "Dude, CHILL OUT! I know you've got some issues, but this is getting outta hand." He poked his stomach, trying to get his point across. What he didn't expect was the squeak he got.
"Damn, I forgot how ticklish you are." Tweek blushed, trying to hide his face.This is perfect! What better way to let go than with laughter! He pinned his hands beneath his knees, getting a better grip. Tweek twisted and pulled, but he was trapped.
"H-hey! Craig, this is so stuhuEEehehehehe!" Craig wasted no times, skittering his fingers across Tweek's belly. His poorly buttoned shirt allowed Craig's fingers to slip in and get his bare stomach. For once, the dumb buttons helped him. "CrahaHAIG! QUIHIHIT ihihit!"
The beanied-bastard felt like teasing. "Nah, you're waaaay too cute like this." Tweek just hid his face in his shoulder, trying to hide the rosy blush on his face. Craig moved his hand up, finding a sweet spo/ bear the top of his ribs. Tweek's giggles turned into laughter, the tickles getting five times worse. "Man, this must really tickle, huh? Sucks to be you right now."
Tweek was conflicted. He was enjoying himself, but Craig was super flustering! The tickles felt amazing, distracting him from his anxious thoughts. However, the teases were turning his brain to mush! "QUHIHIHIT TEHEASING MEHEHEHE!" Craig just rolled his eyes.
"Tickles come at a price. No teases, no tickles." Tweek whined through his laughter, shaking his head. He tugged at his hands, but they were very much stuck. He was starting to get tired.
Craig saw this, and leaned down. He was so close that his breath tickled Tweek's ear. "I'm gonna do one more thing. Buckle up, Jitters." He whipped upwards, lifted Tweek's shirt, and blew a huge raspberry on his poor belly. He burst out laughing, bucking his hips. "CRAHAHAHAHAHAIG! IHIHIT'S SO BAHAHAHAD!"
He blew a few smaller ones, skittering his fingers up and down Tweek's sides. After a few seconds of this awesomeness torment, he let up, climbing off of Tweek. The boy immediately curled into a ball, laughing off the ghost sensations on his torso. He kicked Craig's leg, getting a poke to the side.
"Ihi'm tired. W-wanna wahatch Frozen?" Craig laughed, turning on the movie. Tweek snuggled up next to him, pulling a blanket over them. Within the first half hour, they were both asleep, smiles on their faces.
