i love ichiban so much. like in general but like. he's so neurodivergent. so so much i haven't been able to let go of it since i started playing. he's still filtering everything through dragon quest after 18 fucking years in jail without touching it and his loved ones realize and adapt to this bc they're cool so theyre like,, okay,, lemme put it like this. so you got a debuff from your one night stand. it's gonorrhea. and he's like okay i understand. that blows but im ready to hear my treatment options. and then he'd handle it like a well adjusted adult. he just processes it in a roundabout kinda way. he's just like me fr. and he's fully hallucinating gamer shit in the middle of street fights and his friends (who he met 2 days ago) are like lol ok cool cat that's wild. keep hitting them idc. my stats are going up? that's actually really cool ty for telling me i love you forever. i would die for you. and they're right for it. like they just accept him as-is with little fanfare because that's just ichi. they get on his level conversationally and it's not some awful horrific burden to talk about a thing he likes. and he hallucinates and he's not portrayed as some scary monster or unsettling pitiable thing. he's a cool guy and he's got all these nd traits and i think a lotta ppl probably need to see that. it feels very humanizing to me idk. he's a deeply kind and intelligent and loyal and dependable and wonderful man. one of the game protagonists ever maybe THE game protagonist ever and he's always in fucking situations constantly, as is the case with every rgg protag. anyway i love him. i know a lotta ppl look at him and go oh adhd for sure bc he's bouncy or whatever. and while i question that impulse i see you,, but that is NOT all okay. my man has some comorbidities. he's at a quaint little buffet of the dsm-5. something is UP with him and he's doing marvelously and everybody loves him and I love him too. yeag
#i mean. dq wouldnt help him understand stds more than growing up in a soapland did. regardless#basically i missed a neurodivergent character bracket submission and i was thinkin about him#and like all rgg protags hes just. in situations constantly. hes just plopped into whatever and he excells or fails comedically#rgg#ylad#kasuga ichiban#he's just like me he's got the stinky brain#also the party members who arent in the scene where that '? you guys arent seeing that???' conversation happens like. when do they find out#i hope i worded this right? i think he's interesting rep and there's good things to take from it#like. the hallucinations arent brought up ever again i dont think. theyre like ok ichi but we gotta solve this mystery or whatever#hallucinations/psychosis generally are usually treated as a big dramatic angsty thing#but instead theyre like okay. you wanna go play mario kart?#idk there's something nice to me about it#i imagine it would be kind of a relief to tell someone that and have them just accept it and not tret you any differently for it#but i also dont experience hallucinations/psychosis broadly (probably? tbd) so like. grain of salt on this post. my perspective is limited#anyway i would ask him to help me move. i would trust him to pet sit for me even if hes wacky hijinks prone bc he's a protagonist. etc

Random QL Superlatives: 2024 Edition
This list is gonna contain qls (and a few kdramas) I’ve watched this year, rather than the qls that were released this year.
Best Hosaka: Namgoong Shiwoon, Light On Me
ICYMI, I am obsessed with Hosaka from I Cannot Reach You, for his complete disdain for miscommunication, his incredible radar for bullshittery, and his otherworldly ability to not-so-gentle-parent bl boys into talking to each other. Every BL should have a Hoska. A Hosaka is a crucial part of a healthy BL ecosystem imo. So this year’s Best Hosaka Award goes to.. Namgoong Shiwoon!
Namgoong is kind yet firm in his opinions (and boyyy does he have them in a bushel and a peck), goofy in physicality yet measured with his words, and an all-around stellar friend. He would figure out the exact ways you’re ruining your life before you’ve even had a chance to emerge from the mental rubble, and will meet you with a detailed presentation on how to fix everything. Get a Namgoong for your life and listen to them for the best results!
Favorite Signature Move, Kiyoi tackling Hira, Utsukushii Kare 2 and Utsukushii Kare: Eternal
Kiyoi losing his patience with Hira and tackling him to the ground so he can get in his face and scream to get information out of him was simultaneously hilarious and sad.
Most Ineffective Defense: Sangwoo and His Lil Desk Divider, Semantic Error
I am still laughing at how Sangwoo believed with his entire precious heart that putting up a foot tall, easily removable physical barrier is gonna deter my man Jaeyoung, menace extraordinaire and dedicated Sangwoo-annoyer. Boy, did you even wanna try?
Saddest Sex Scene: At 25:00, In Akasaka
I was already heartbroken when Hayama and Shirasaki tried, failed, and emotionally devastated each other by attempting to “rehearse” for their intimate scene the previous night, but the filming of the actual scene took the pieces of my shattered heart, stomped on it, and then set it on fire. The aborted pinkie touch should be made illegal due to the amount of pain it inflicts on the masses.
Favorite Wholly Unrealistic Teenage Boy, Hasegawa, Oppan
I love this boy with all my heart and soul. What a mature little teenage noodle. The writers must’ve conceived his character by pouring all the good stuff they want to see in a baseball-jock teenage boy into a beaker, and out he emerged, Powerpuff Girls style.
Best Use of Strong-Independent-Women Money: Lee Mi Na’s Collection, Hit The Spot
I adore this woman for many things. Her friendship with Hee Jae. Her standards for men.
But most of all, I adore her for the things she spends her money on.
What an icon.
Best Righteous Anger: Ryunosuke, Tokyo In April Is…
I am always a big fan of characters who are mad for the right reasons and are not afraid to show it. Ryunosuke watched his friend carry this unbearable guilt around for years, and was rightfully mad at Kazuma who he assumed knew what had happened to Ren. And when he realized that Kazuma did not know, Ryunosuke sets his anger aside and tells Kazuma. I am part of the Ren Protection Squad and Ryunosuke is our leader.
The Cameo That Inspired The Loudest Scream: Madea Kentaro in Utsukushii Kare: Eternal
My earnest, precious son Yamato from I Cannot Reach You showing up in the middle of Hira and Kiyoi’s patented messiness? The scream I scrumpt, y’all.
Bestest Best Friend: Joon Pyo, The Eighth Sense
Joon Pyo! He got the fuck out of his own room for the night so his childhood best friend can get some. Ji Hyun better protect and cherish him at all costs.
Most Precious Gift To The World: Fujita-san and Kasuga’s conversation, Tsukuritai Onna to Tabetai Onna Season 2
Asian daughters fighting the intergenerational trauma demon everyday just.. get to have this? To watch whenever we want and draw strength from it? And feel the shoulders of the other daughters (and mothers) also fighting their fight, standing right beside us, fighting, and living, and thriving? What a blessing.
Wisest Wisdom: Pie’s Post-Breakup Advice, The Trainee
Heartbreak is temporary. French Fries are eternal.
The Swooniest Gwenchana: Ji Hyun, Happiness
Did I make up a whole category just because I needed to put his face on this post? Yes.
This year has been, amongst many things, undeniably fun. Tag me in your superlatives lists, and I will see y’all in the next one!
Tagging the peeps: @lurkingshan, @bengiyo, @happypotato48, @wen-kexing-apologist, @starryalpacasstuff

QL 2024: Favorite Pairs
Tagged by @abstractelysium in their QL 2024: Favorite Couples Tag Game, and while I have been breaking the Top Five rule (and all the other rules) with the other Favorites I’ve been tagged in, because they are the engineer of this whole thing I will be good and stick to my Top Five couples of 2024, again in no particular order:
Kasuga and Nomoto- She Loves to Cook and She Loves to Eat
I LOVE THEM! I mean, that will be a trend with every one of these pairs so I should maybe not start with that. BUT, they are such good compliments of each other, it’s literally in the name of the show. Nomoto and Kasuga are just the nicest, kindest people who do nothing but care for each other and the people they love. They are so bright and warm, and I know they will be together for a very long time. I want to be in their friend group so badly.
Karan and Achi- Cherry Magic: Thailand
I love these boys in every universe. But I especially love these boys when they are actually allowed to engage in physical intimacy in the try to lose your virginity show. If you look up the definition of “simp” there would just be a photo of Karan sitting there waiting for you. I really enjoyed the take that Cherry Magic: Thailand had on Karan learning about Achi’s powers. Newwie did such an incredible job performing Achi’s awkward energy and obviously there is no better couple on earth than the one that whale screams the second his crush rests his head on his shoulder.
Latte and Almond- Knock Knock, Boys!
Sex scene of the year if you ask me. I love how much these two love each other, and I love how much Latte tolerates Almond continuously trying to get a look at that dick for a birth mark. I know I’m really hung up on the sex scene between them, but I think it’s a really good manifestation of their relationship. Like truly I love the fact that Latte is sexually experienced and Almond is very much not and yet their first time is still incredibly awkward because of course it would be. In my mind, it is a sign of a good relationship when people challenge themselves for the sake of their partner. Latte being hesitant to go to the beach because of past experiences but knowing that it would make Almond happy and deciding to go and having a much better time than he expected was one of my favorite moments of the entire show. I look forward to Almond turning off the blaring alarm Latte will sleep through foe as long as they are together.
Lee Do Hoe and Sin Ju Yeong- Let Free the Curse of Taekwondo
Okay I know compared to the others on this list Do Hoe and Ju Yeong’s relationship is a little bit of a harder sell because of what Do Hoe put Ju Yeong through for all those years. But. I do genuinely believe they are really good for each other and life and trauma got in the way. It is so important to me that the first real and genuine smile we see from Do Hoe is because of Ju Yeong. I am so glad they had each other, for however brief a time as kids, and I am thrilled they found each other again as adults, the Ju Yeong called Do Hoe on his bullshit, and that they both stood together to destroy the fucking dojo that caused both of them so much pain. I really love that we end this show with Do Hoe and Ju Yeong jobless, in a small apartment, with Do Hoe studying for the college entrance exam he’s failed multiple times. But they are together, and they are happy, and they are free.
Shiba Ryoma and Haruto- Love is Like a Poison
THIS IS WHAT I WANT IN A BATTLE COUPLE!!! Ryo and Haruto love and support each other and it is not hard at all to find that in the evidence. Ryo has been enamored with Haruto from the moment they met, they will literally fight for each other both in court and in warehouses where they have been kidnapped by evil doers. I love that their love is so secure that there was no concern about Haruto pulling a noble idiocy. He immediately starts talking to Ryo’s plants, they can actually read each other’s minds, and most importantly to me, Haruto’s little group of homeless children immediately adopting Ryo into the fold as a person they can trust and go to when they and/or Haruto need help. I love how staunchly Ryo stands up for and trusts Haruto, and how uncompromising he is in making sure everyone knows where he stands when it comes to his job versus his lover. If you have not watched Love is Like Poison, please take this as a sign to do so.

Happy Thanksgiving! Here’s a little treat of what I think each of the Ichigang would make!
Kasuga: He’s in charge of Mac and cheese…. Homeboy just went and bought some Kraft. Somehow managed to burn it? Thankfully Zhao and Joongi are there to save the day. Wanted to cook the Turkey originally, but that meant him using a deep fryer and the gang didn’t feel like calling the fire department
Kiryu: Isn’t quite sure what to make/bring. So he decides something basic, making some good old fashion rolls. Not only can this man cook up a fine dish of kickass, he also makes amazing bread and rolls
Nanba: He’s making a salad, from what everyone can expect: random plants found across the city. It looks somewhat edible. Atleast he bought the salad dressing
Adachi: Just alcohol. That’s it. Might bring some corn in a can and call it a day.
Saeko: She’s making some pies. Pumpkin pie and apple pie. Spends all morning making sure the lacing on the apple pie is perfect. She would definitely serve the women first before letting the men fight over slices
Zhao: I think the most obvious one, he’s in charge of the turkey! Man spends atleast 3 hours just prepping it to be baked
Joongi: Has his own secret gravy recipe he spent years perfecting. Refusing to let anyone see him make it, nor even Soenhee (though she might try to the Geomijul technology to spy). Also offers to steam all the veggies
Seonhee: Cranberry Sauce. She have the perfect recipe for making it (definitely didn’t use the Geomijul to help find the perfect ingredients). Takes a lot of pride in this sauce, Joongi might be jealous how much she’s praising her cooking over his
Eri: Eri is a pro at cornbread! Has Omlette assist her in making the tasty bread. Using fresh eggs, and the fanciest corn she feeds Omlette. This cornbread is one the group will be begging her to make again
Tomi: He’s doing the stuffing. Has a few good recipes from various people he’s given rides to. He decides to make a few batches and see which one the group likes the best.
Chitose: Chitose is doing some fine mashed potato’s! The guys have annoyed her, once again. So what better way to get her anger out that beating up some potato’s. Just the right about of seasonings, everyone is definitely getting seconds

year-end drama recommendation
Good year to you all! I hope you all had a great winter break, that you were all smothered with love, and crushed by the weight of the presents you all dreamt about. I smell the end of the year, so here I am, crawling out of my dark cave, ready to send you all into our annual Japanese drama heaven. Welcome! I hope 2024 was kind to you.
As you are getting ready to say goodbye to 2024, making plans, buying party accessories, and cooking, so am I, reminiscing and compiling some notes to get this yearly reviews out to ship them right under your thumb! You will be served 4 wonderful J-dramas I watched in 2024 and deemed worthy, like a 4 course meal, and our dining will start today, on the 28th of December and end as usual, on the 31st of December!
Now, let's start with an appetizer. I proudly present
1. Tsukuritai Onna to Tabetai Onna (2022) & Tsukuritai Onna to Tabetai Onna Season 2 (2024)
1st season: 10 eps, 15 min each; 2nd season: 20 eps, 15 min each
How clever am I, sprinkling food metaphors to smoothly show off my first pick — She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat Season 1 and Season 2. As you can see, it's a two for one deal, and I truly believe that one cannot go without the other, like bruschetta and tomato.
Season 1 of She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat shows us the sweet beginnings of our two main characters, Nomoto and Kasuga. The girls are neighbours and they coincidentally start a routine. Nomoto's passion is cooking, and she tends to cook too much when she doesn't control herself. She believes that good food comes in big portions and her dream is to serve big family plates of home made dishes. Is it a coincidence or fate that Kasuga loves eating? Kasuga appreciates good and hearty portions, so when Nomoto proposes to share leftover food with her, she's more than happy to take her upon that suggestion. And, as the saying goes in my native language, "przez żołądek do serca", which would loosely translate to "the way to someone's heart is through their stomach".
We watch Kasuga's and Nomoto's relationship bloom in an inconspicuous setting and I believe it's a good foundation for season 2 to dive into their dynamic.
In season 2, we see how Nomoto and Kasuga come to terms with their feelings for each other, and how both of them bravely confess. The second season is also heavier, because it delves deeper into a mature relationship, and what comes with it. The main characters reveal more of their insecurities and issues, and we see how they deal with them alone or how they overcome them together. We are also introduced to new characters, who give us even more trials and tribulations, expand the representation of the drama, and help our main couple get together.
I believe that most of the 1st season's setting is around Christmas, and the final episode is happening on New Year's Eve, with Nomoto and Kasuga watching together the first sunrise of the New Year, which is quite perfect for the season.
This series is not only a good watch, but a good source of inspiration as well. I cannot count how many times I cooked or prepared something just like in the drama or something that was inspired by it. Prepare a good snack before you watch!
Part 2 || Part 3 || Part 4

Can I
Can I have headcanons on how loud the ichigang is during sex.................. Please
Making a comeback with the headcanons after such a long finals-induced absence yay 🤘😌
• Ichiban Kasuga
He's loud, but still surprisingly quieter than his everyday self. He tries to hold himself a bit so that he can hear your moans better, but if you make it clear that you want to hear him, too, then he'll cut loose A LITTLE more. Hearing you is still his number one priority though.
• Yu Nanba
He's so embarrassed of making noise, oh my God. Like, deadly quiet. At most, he'll let out a sigh. You can get where he's coming from cause he's generally VERY insecure about sex, especially since it's been so long since he last fooled around. But Jesus Christ is it frustrating—just... sit him down and have a talk.
• Koichi Adachi
So loud and so unashamed of it, Jesus. Grunts and moans and fucking growls. You would think he's over exaggerating, but he is legitimately not, that's just how he is.
• Saeko Mukoda
Honestly, it depends on what mood she's in. Some days she'll be super quiet, some others she'll be super loud (especially when she's bottoming). She won't pretend and make more noise just to make you feel good either—she's gonna do what she feels like doing.
• Joongi Han
He's quiet but like, not Nanba levels. He makes little whimpers and whiny noises and gets so red to the face, literally the cutest thing ever. He might try to bite his hand or the pillow to muffle them, but if you've been together for a while and he feels really comfortable around you, he'll let go fully.
• Zhao Tianyou
He's not SUPER loud, but he's far from quiet either. Sometimes he might play up the theatrics and let out and over exaggerated moan, but generally speaking, he's perfectly average. Not enough shame in his body to try and muffle his noises, not even if you're fucking somehwere public. Shut him up yourself, coward.
• Seonhee
A mix of Zhao and Saeko. In the sense that she's perfectly average (not super loud but not super quiet either), but she's not gonna try and spare your feelings by exaggerating if you're not making her feel good. Eating her out never fails to make her loud as hell though.
• Eric Tomizawa
Tries to keep quiet ala Nanba. He hasn't really had any action since Marie, so he IS a little anxious. He does eventually grow louder though, and the man is literally the best of both worlds: you'll have him groaning in your ear when he's domming, but if he's subbing, he'll make such cute whiny noises, maybe even cry if you push him enough.
• Chitose Fujinomiya
Always has a hand over her mouth, because as much as she'd like to keep quiet, when in the heat of the moment, she literally cannot. She'll only stop doing that if she trusts you enough, and once that happens, she'll eventually get shameless (though not as much as Zhao)

Japanese QL Corner
ICYMI: There are so many Japanese qls airing weekly, so I’m going to start posting this little round up at the end of each week. Most of these shows are on Gaga and I highly recommend watching!
Chaser Game W
We've reached the stage with this one where I'm just gonna say we should keep watching for the ratings and enjoy the pretty gifs.
Tsukuritai Onna to Tabetai Onna 2
I got to watch episodes 5-8 of the new season this week, and I promptly lost my mind over how good this show is. It somehow got even better between seasons; the creators have some things to say about the experiences of women under heterosexual patriarchy. I already wrote about Kasuga's family trauma storyline and how much it meant to me, but these episodes also gave us Nomoto's ongoing queer awakening and journey to define her sexuality, the introduction of a new queer bestie in Yako, a better understanding of Nagumo and the careful and steady deepening of her relationship with the gals, a new confidant for Kasgua in Fujita, and Nomoto and Kasuga inching ever closer to defining what they are to each other. The world of the show and the support network around our leads continues to expand, and I am loving every moment. This drama is excellent and I cannot implore you enough to go to @furritsubs and catch up.
My Strawberry Film
Kicking off the last Drama Shower show of the season! This is a high school story featuring a classic trio—the Pining Gay, the Chaos Bisexual, and the Budding Lesbian. Obviously, I love them. I like the mood of this one—it's quite a tonal shift from the last show in this series—and the color grading is blue, blue, blue. And there's a mystery afoot as they try to track down the beautiful girl captured on film. Looking forward to more!
Sukiyanen Kedo Do Yaro ka
I continue to love this show, though I am not entirely sure how I feel about the turn things took with Mizuki this week. I did not really want this to go the full blown love triangle route; I am more interested in a version of this story where Sakae and Soga try to figure out these adult complications from the foundation of being in a relationship, not with the constant interference of a third party. So few dramas are willing to get the couple together early and let them face things together rather than constantly playing the will they, won't they game, and I was hoping Sukidoya was going to be one of them. That said, I like that Mizuki is sticking around in the story because he's an interesting character, and I like the conflict with Soga's job (we have a preponderance of Japanese shows about unreasonable work conditions airing atm) and the temporary nature of his time in Osaka. That he's worried about eventually leaving tells you all you need to know about how much he likes and respects Sakae. If he felt casual about him he would not be worried about complications that far down the timeline. Let's see where they take this love triangle thing next week; I'm hoping it will be brief.
Perfect Propose
Great episode this week, and I love the way they continue to deepen the backstory for these two. Hiro being the first person to need Kai rather than pity him makes so much sense for their dynamic and why Kai would be so attached to him. And of course, when Kai returns the situation is the same; Hiro definitely still needs him. I love that they took a source of shame for Hiro and turned it into a reason why he and Kai are so compatible. Kai wants to take care of him—and he's not the only one! Loved seeing Hiro's coworkers express concern for his well-being and recognize how this job is grinding him down and breaking his spirit. It was so validating to hear from another high performer that the job is miserable and he should quit. It has nothing to do with failure; as Kaneko said, it's about seeking the life he truly wants. He sees Hiro's talent and knows he will not be able to flourish in this hellish work environment, and I thought it was so kind and compassionate of him to try to help Hiro see that. Also shoutout to Hiyori for sitting her ass back down and missing the last train when she realized prime gossip was about to arrive to her table, she's just like me fr.
Ossan's Love Returns
We are clearly in the drama spiral for the season now, and this show seems to be coming for my beloved Kurosawa. Thanks, I hate it! But the show found its humor again this week even as the sad plotlines for the side characters continued, and I was very happy to see it back in top form. I loved this story with Maki and Haruta caring for Goro for the week, and how it affirmed for them that they are actually not interested in having children. I told @bengiyo and @twig-tea when we saw last week's preview that Maki seemed like the type who wouldn't like children, and I was glad to see that affirmed by the show, and crucially, that he didn't change his mind via the power of Goro's cuteness. Not all people want to be parents, and it's so nice and refreshing to see a loving couple decide they just want to focus on each other, and that you can like kids and spend time with them without needing to have one of your own. I loved, too, that we got some focus on Chizu's struggles as a single mom, and her family rallied around her and made it clear she has support. Takegawa's sudden not-at-all-selfishly-motivated interest in polyamory was hilarious, as was Chief's journey to figure out what was causing his stress—until it wasn't, of course. I was glad Chuoko was with him when he got the news. And I am really hoping that rooftop kiss was Kiku's goodbye, and we will be seeing him move on from Izumi soon.
Bonus: Kimi no Koto Dake Mite Itai
Shoutout to @my-rose-tinted-glasses for giffing this show and reminding me I still hadn't seen it! It was not accessible to me back when it came out and it fell off my radar for awhile. I watched today and thought it was just delightful. A short, sweet, warm hug of a friends to lovers high school bl with two very lovable leads. I highly recommend checking it out.

NSFW Headcanons for Yakuza 7/LAD Peeps
I literally had no idea what to title this, but the title is self-explanatory so I suppose it’ll do ✨
Let’s gooooo
Ichiban Kasuga:
Bit of a vanilla guy when it comes to sex, and is more of a sub. Probably doesn’t have a ton of experience too, so would allow you to take the lead.
Enjoys missionary most, or likes to be sat up as you ride him. Basically any position where he can clearly see your lovely face, he likes.
Blowjobs would ruin this guy, he is a sucker for them. First time you gave him one, he thought he’d died and gone to heaven. Would be super gentle when receiving, and would refrain from shoving your head down. He might involuntarily thrust into your mouth though, but only because your lips around his dick just feels so good. Would hold your hair back for you, if it’s long enough.
Not the best at giving oral at first due to lack of experience, but he is very eager to learn how to please you, and would be very appreciative of you guiding him on what to do.
Overall, he’s just an absolute sweetheart and just wants to do his best to please you.
Yu Nanba:
Another vanilla.
Controversial mayhaps, but he could be a switch. Can take the lead if you want, but does generally prefer it when you’re in charge.
He would most likely be a bit stiff/awkward the first few times you fuck, as he can be a tiny bit shy, but he definitely relaxes and catches on quickly to what you like, and what works best for both of you.
Doesn’t have a huge sex drive, and also another one with not tons of experience.
Enjoys lazy, sleepy morning sex, and he firmly believes that there is no better way to start the day.
Gets rather flustered when giving oral at first, but the little noises and hums he would make are to die for.
Of course he enjoys getting blowjobs, but would almost be a little shy about receiving? Would probably ask if you’re sure you want to do it, and would make a point to reassure you that you don’t have to.
Does love a good handjob though. This man is lazy, and would find it so nice to be able to just sit back and let you do your thing.
Adachi Koichi:
Sex on the brain. This guy is always down to get laid.
He’s definitely more dominant, and would love to just pound into you from behind. Has a surprising amount of stamina for a man of his age.
Would maybe accidentally leave bruises on your hips when taking you from behind. Man’s got a strong grip. Would make it up to you after with lots of big teddy bear cuddles.
His beard is definitely gonna tickle you. Whether he’s kissing you, nuzzling and biting your neck, or has his head in-between your thighs, you’re gonna feel the tickly stubble.
Loves boobs. He’s gonna be biting them, sucking them, kissing them…he just can’t keep his hands off them.
If you ask him nicely, he would lie back and let you take control, if that’s what you wanted. Probably wouldn’t happen too often though.
If you guys were out and about, and he managed to find a nice, secluded spot where you two could fuck without being caught, he would totally be down for a quickie or a blowjob. However, if there’s any chance of you two being caught, then absolutely not.
Saeko Mukoda:
Most likely a switch. Can take the lead no problem, but happy to be more of a light sub if you would prefer to take charge. Nothing extreme, however.
Knows what she likes, and also what she doesn’t like so much. Would probably establish boundaries very early on, which is good.
Respect is so important for her, so she wouldn’t be in to anything remotely degrading. She’s a very proud and independent woman, and it shows in the bedroom too.
More on the gentle, vanilla side, but if she was rather frustrated or in a teasing mood, she would definitely get a couple of bites in. Nothing hard enough to leave a mark though. Wouldn’t leave any hickeys, and probably wouldn’t want to receive any either.
Likely doesn’t have sex that often. She’d want to be in a relationship with someone before fucking them, or would need to at least have quite a strong, intimate bond. For that reason, she’d likely have toys so that she can satisfy herself, but doesn’t use them too often as her sex drive isn’t that high. Would be willing to use toys during sex with her partner, more so with a female partner.
Seonhee:
Dom, dom, dom.
Not an extreme dom, but is definitely the one in charge. It just comes naturally to her.
Would have a decent amount of experience. Probably has had a couple of fuck buddies in the past, but with very clearly established boundaries and rules. This woman is very no-nonsense.
Amazing with her fingers, and knows it too. Oozing confidence, and would catch on so quickly to what you like, and what makes you absolutely weak. Would just be so smug at the sound of you moaning as she works her magic.
Wouldn’t give oral often, if it all. Of course, she is happy to receive oral. Would somehow still be in charge, even when receiving, and likely wouldn’t be very loud, but would make a few appreciative noises. The harsh grip she has on her partners hair would be a dead giveaway that she’s enjoying it, however.
A busy woman with a lot on her plate, so her sex drive wouldn’t be majorly high.
Already knows what she likes and doesn’t like, so maybe wouldn’t be that open to trying new things, unless it really appealed to her.
Joon-Gi Han:
He’s giving bottom vibes, or maybe a switch at a push?
Is a total tease. He knows he looks hot, and when he’s horny he will attempt to seduce you whilst still appearing all coy. Flashes you ‘fuck me’ eyes, and his voice just turns smooooth as butter.
Takes orders well. Order him around like a lil sex butler, although no degrading stuff and no being mean! Order him to strip, command him to eat you out, tell him to fuck your brains out, he will do what he can to please you.
He’s very honest and straightforward. If there’s something he doesn’t like or enjoy, he’ll tell you.
Not massively experienced due to his past, but is open to trying most things at least once.
If you ordered him to choke you or be too physical in any way, he would refuse. He is very protective, and would never want to even risk hurting you. It would just feel wrong. He might tie you up if you ask him though, but he’s not great at being a top so you’d maybe have to lightly guide him still.
His moans are so heavenly, especially when he’s getting his dick sucked. Would definitely have a firm grip of his partners hair whilst they suck him off, but nothing painful.
Likewise, when he’s giving oral, the little appreciative hums and groans he makes are amazing. His hands would be gripping on to your thighs so tightly, and he would literally be eating you out like a starved man.
Overall, his main focus would be pleasing you. He wouldn’t be too focused on his own pleasure.
Tianyou Zhao:
Probably a top. He’s so flirty and playful, and it’s kind of hard to imagine him not being somewhat in control.
Very good with his hands, and would be an absolute pro at fingering. Could make you finish from that alone very easily.
He probably enjoys seeing you flustered, so would definitely be a huge, massive tease. Likely gets a bit of a kick out of seeing you blush.
Loves, loves, loves ass. Any position where he’s taking you from behind with a good view of your ass, he’s there for it. Loves squeezing your ass, grabbing it, slapping it, you get the gist.
Also loves nothing more than burying his head in between your thighs, and sloppily eating you out.
When getting his dick sucked, he’s probably gonna thrust in to your mouth or push your head down. Would praise you and tell you how good it feels if you deepthroat him.
If he can get you somewhere private when out in public, he would be down for a quickie if he was super horny.

ichiban, kiryu, and zhao taking care of an so with migraines? ;w;
Last one for this week, I'm outta town the next four days but wanted to hammer a few more asks down before I flee da scene for a bit. Gonna be short and sweet with this one, love y'all!
Ichiban Kasuga
He kind of just circles you and stays in the nearby vicinity in case you need anything. He is trying SO hard not to pester you and ask if you're okay every other minute... will bring you just about anything you ask, short of the moon.
Kiryu Kazuma
He understands. Completely. He'll just be like "Ah...headache." Tell him what you need, if you need anything, and he'll get it. If you need space and quiet, you can have that too. He is bringing you a cup of tea whether you like it or not though. Also insists that laying down will help. Just lay down. In the bed with you.
Tianyou Zhao
For some reason this ding dong's reaction right off the bat is to put his hand on your forehead like he's gonna be able to feel the migraine like a fever??? Zhao's just generally a tactile type of guy, but where he got that from, no one knows. Having said that, he knows how to give a pretty good massage if that would help! Of course, he's gonna offer to cook you whatever your heart desires too.

Tsukuritai Onna to Tabetai Onna
Usual warning. This is not a review. It's just me needing to put what I'm feeling somewhere. I just finished watching so there's absolutely no critical thinking happening here.
TL;DR: WATCH THIS SHOW!!!
Well I finally finished all of Tsukutabe and to say my heart is full feels small somehow. My heart grew. I remember when I finished the second season of Kinou Nani Tabeta, I was so overwhelmed with emotions and honestly I was not expecting to be in that place again. I called it magic and I have to echo those same feelings here. Because this show it's magic. It's a gift that makes me feel thankful that I got to experience it. I really have a hard time writing about this because I'm feeling so many things so I'll try to split it in smaller bits so maybe it sounds a bit more coherent. No promises though.
Kasuga I have to start here because she's my favourite, in case it wasn't obvious by my choice of pfp. She's so cute. I fell in love with her almost immediately. I've talked about this before but to see a character eat the way she does on screen healed something in me. The way she looks at Nomoto made me melt multiple times and her smile completely shatters this cold heart of mine. The episodes around her family had me bawling [normally I would wish for her father to be run over or something, but that would only add misery to Kasuga's mother, so I just hope he dies first] but seeing her put herself first and release herself from those expectations was amazing. Her journey was incredible and it was great that she was able to open up to Nagumo and Nomoto. I have to congratulate Nishino Emi for her portrayal of Kasuga. Considering she's not an actor (she's a musician btw) and this is her only acting credit, I thought the way she embodied Kasuga was really good.
Nomoto I adore her. Her happiness was infectious and she made me smile so wide. Cooking for your loved ones is just such the most beautiful thing to me and she and Shiro are the standard and everyone else can take notes. She's more open than Kasuga so we have more of an insight to her and to watch her awakening was amazing. It reminded me a bit Sakuko [Koisenu Futari] in the beginning. Her facial expressions always gave her away and it was such a contrast to Kasuga's reserved demeanor.
THEM The Yin and Yang. They are so different on the surface but the way they come together and create a space for each other is just so beautiful to see. They are learning from each other through these two seasons and growing together and navigating the realities of their relationship and what it all means and how it makes them feel. I just love the happiness in Nomoto's eyes whenever Saguka is eating her food and the happiness and little smiles in Kasuga's face whenever Nomoto got really excited by a vegetable or a finished dish. They are perfect and will live happily ever after. Period.
Nagumo This girl has my whole heart. I said this before in the notes but every time she was on my screen I just wanted to give her a hug. She's fragile but resilient and although she was a bit shy at first, the way she shared her story with Kasuga and quickly became the person she went to for advice was so good. And to see her getting help, finding relief in a word and hope in the future made me cry so much. And when she took that bite it made my heart grow that very second. And just as a aside, the fact that the show chose to have her eat while the others didn't notice and after they did, they still didn't make it a big deal made me ugly cry. Because that's the magic part. That when I feel that a show knows what it's doing with its characters. And the moment at the end in the job thing when she said she wanted to do something that allowed to talk to people had me clapping like a proud mama.
Chiharu I love her. I love that Nomoto had someone by her side from the beginning that she could confide in and that was supportive. And that when she "messed up", like with the wedding talk, she was given space to reflect and understand and give her friend the space she needed to talk about it. Cause it's okay to not be all woke - god, I hate this word - all the time. As long as people are ready to listen to each other and learn from one another. Also always happy for the screw marriage discourse.
Yako The ace rep had me clapping at first of course. It's so rare anywhere in media so it always adds points no matter what. So obviously... I love her. She's such an amazing supporter. She's so kind and open. Her relationship with Nomoto was wonderful but she and Naguma gave me some of my favourite moments ever. Because being supportive sometimes is just being present, is asking questions, is just listening to understand and not judge. And to want those around you to grow. That moment where she realized what the move meant for Nagumo and asked her to go for a walk was so good.
THESE WOMEN. I love these women. All of them. How they come together for each other, and the kindness and understanding made me ugly cry on more than one occasion.
The Food This show really speaks to me in several ways and I know I spoke of this before but I keep coming back to food.
You eat too much or you don't eat enough. Or you don't eat it the right way. Or eat the right things. Food is just sustenance for some. Food is joy to others. Food is what makes some of us get up in the morning. Food is to eat alone or together. It means a lot of different things to different people. It's food. You eat yours and I eat mine. Can we just not pay so much attention to this? Now that I got that out. Japanese shows are the best at using food in their stories. And more often that not, it's a place of joy and healing. And the fact that this series showed that food can also be a source of trauma and something that makes you different, as well as a place where you can heal is so important to me. Because I can relate to both those things. The dining table has been a place where I felt wrong different but also a place where I found so much joy.
The Magic Much like Kinou Nani Tabeta this show is full of magic. It was made by people that needed to make it, to talk about things that mattered, from a place of empathy and love. I feel like I was meant to watch this show. The universe conspired to put it in front of me. I understand this sounds super corny, and honestly if anyone else said this words to me I would be rolling my eyes way back into my skull, so I get it. But it feels cosmic somehow. Also fun fact that helps the magic of it all. One of the characters and I share a last name. Me, little portuguese me, and a japanese character from this show. Can you imagine the odds? And no, I have no connection to Japan whatsoever, and my last name isn't even a very common one in either country. So really it has to be magic, right? Also, I have a small confession. GL's were never my favourite. I'm enjoying 23.5 a lot for example but I'm never in a rush to watch them. I have a bias against them that I never really examined, except that I find that I'm much more critical of them so I enjoyed them less. But this show, these women, just moved the needle a bit. There are important conversations here, not just from a queer standpoint but from a female perspective that really resonated with me, so I might need to readjust some things. Anyway, I have a lot of feelings but this is already long. I'll be thinking about this show a lot more, and there will be giffing for sure so I won't leave these characters any time soon. Also, did I mention?, I LOVE Kasuga. SHE IS EVERYTHING TO ME and one of my favourite characters of all time.
I already talked about the kindness in this show but I need to say it again. It's all about the kindness. These women. They are all so open and kind and because of that they are all better people and happier people. Maybe we can learn from them. If only we could be a little more kind to each other.
If you've made it to the end, thanks for reading��. [A huge thanks to @furritsubs for giving us the opportunity to enjoy this masterpiece.]

She Loves to Cook and She Loves to Eat 2 Eps 9-12 Stray Thoughts
Last time, Nomoto and her new online friend had a watch party and discussed the nature of asexuality and homosexuality coexisting, and Nomoto shared about being in love with Kasuga; I'm a big fan of Yako. The ladies managed to connect more with Nagumo, and we learned she has an eating disorder where she can't eat in front of strangers. However, she did make donuts with them and took some home. Kasuga also managed to sever ties with her father after thinking about it and talking with other women. She asked if Nomoto would support her, and of course she did. I will never stop thinking about the Chosen Family scene.
Episode 9
Yes, Yako, coach her. We cannot let them exit this season without talking through their feelings for each other.
I have never identified with a character more than Yako. I would also enjoy my food and wine while watching my friend sweat over the crush.
Yako backstory! It really is hard in your teens when you are deeply out of alignment with other queers about sex.
The power went out and Kasuga immediately went to check on Nomoto. You love to see it.
NOMOTO IS WEARING ONE OF KASUGA'S SWEATERS, AND KASUGA JUST PULLED LINT FROM HER HAIR. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
Thank you, Nagumo! It would be awkward as hell to sit in this zone of lesbian love and not know what stage we were on!
We have verbal confirmation that Kasuga likes Nomoto! Nagumo, you are our champion! You have to get these two to the next level!!
Currently dwelling on Kasuga not lying when asked directly about her feelings. There's a difference between being out and letting people in, and I like that Kasuga told her truth to Nagumo.
Episode 10
Their project manager is at least being upfront with them that they're being asked to rebuild the entire app.
Sorry, Kasuga, but it's not often we escape compulsory heterosexuality and still have a positive interaction in a sales environment like this.
Nagumo, I love you. You have finally given us a reason to have Kasuga voice her thoughts aloud.
This show really said plainly that the presumption of heteronormativity hurts and upsets people who don't fit that mold.
I really love this show detailing how harrowing pining is when you don't know if the other person is queer and the relationship you've built means so much to you.
Episode 11
Episode 21, you aired on Valentine's Day. Please don't let me down.
This former Valentine's Day and White Day gifting tradition sounds tedious as hell.
I didn't expect Kasuga's family troubles to end with that one phone call, and here goes the aunt downplaying Kasuga's feelings and bulldozing over her expressed boundaries.
Okay, Mikami! Way to come through for my girls!!
I wanna have hotpot so bad right now.
I'm so nervous about these chocolates!!
Damn, this cake looks good. I like putting the whipped cream on the side.
Kasuga picked out different chocolates! I'm so proud of her!
Now, Kasuga, why would you go and crush me like that on Valentine's Day? I know why you need to move, but goddamn.
Episode 12
Invoices for raising her? Vile.
Queers apologizing for being selfish when they confess will never not make me cry.
I'm sorry I got a bit testy at the dramatic cliffhanger, Kasuga. You came through for me exactly the way I hoped. Y'all should definitely find a bigger place together and stay in touch with Nagumo.
"I am very delighted and also taken aback." She's like me and I love her.
Aww that was so beautiful, and she's still crying.
I'm so glad she told Sayama immediately. We stay winning.
Man, I just watched I Only Want to See You, and I'm feeling the same difficulty in the transition from friendship to romance in the relationship.
Yes, ladies, thank you for talking through telling others and reaffirming that this is definitely a romance. Let's make sure no one, especially the audience, misunderstands.
I love how Nomoto bursts into tears when she swoons.
Oh snap the whole squad is going to meet Yako next week!!!
We did it, y'all! We got to see them confess their feelings and start dating. I'm so looking forward to seeing their relationship grow and mature, and I'm actually looking forward to the move and the attendant drama that brings. I hope Nagumo doesn't end up thinking that asking about their relationship somehow cost her the relationship she's been building with them. This was an excellent week of episodes.
Big thanks to @furritsubs for making this possible.

Nari's Tsukutabe Superlatives! (Part 1)
Drama Superlatives | Shared Superlatives
This year has pretty much been almost nothing but "She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat" for me, huh? So many experiences, so much fun~
So, I decided to do a twist on these year-end "superlative" posts by strictly focusing on just Tsukutabe and my year with it! We're skipping some of the more obvious ones (Best Couple is CLEARLY Nomoto/Kasuga lmao) and trying to do some stuff that has a shot at being unique.
And, because of the way this sort of thing works, it's probably going to not happen again next year...unless we get some sort of super update with both the comic and the drama (or maybe another adaptation! Who knows!). I'll just archive these as new articles for my Tsukutabe Masterpost~
Anyway, let's dive right in! Part 1 will be focusing on the comic specifically.
The text underneath says their holidays both happened to start on the 28th, in case you were curious lol
BEST PANEL (TIE)
This is probably going to surprise folks, but I am a fan of "The Little Things." And, this is true with the winners as well. While I do love the pages that get shared a lot online - like Nomoto learning about asexuality from Yako, or Nomoto's early monologue about her being annoyed that her love for cooking always gets framed into traditional things - it's stuff like this that I truly enjoy.
In the first one, they're just standing out on Kasuga's balcony, watching the sun finish rising on this new year's day. A quiet moment shared with one another. The other - while trying not to spoil - is just a really sweet moment of Nomoto and Kasuga just, well, having a moment together. They're happy, they have each other. All is well in the world~
FAVORITE CHAPTER
Can I say Chapter 40 even though it's still a month until we get the English version of Volume 5? No? Still spoilers? Bah.
Well, besides that...Chapter 16 stands out to me a lot. Poor Nomoto...but then a realization and a new path forward. God, I love it
MOST RETURNED-TO VOLUME
There's just a lot going on in this one that I always end up just picking it back up for reference or for re-reading in general. It also has some of the most memorable moments that fandom has gushed about! I love the other volumes, of course! But for a category like this, clearly one stands out more than the others...
BEST DIALOGUE
The whole confession scene in the comic, bar none. All of it, including the silly way it ends. I even prefer this version of the confession over the drama's (though it is also really good). It's because it feels really relatable to my personal experience. I go deep into both ladies' POVs in two different essays, actually! (this leads to one but there's a link to the other one on it!)
BEST BONUS COMIC (TIE)
When I really got into my Tsukutabe brainrot, I looked all over for stuff. Still do, to be honest! But some of the easiest things to find are the bonus comics the official Twitter account has shared in the past. There's more than this, but these two are just my top faves.
Summaries: The first one is about Nomoto and Kasuga trying to find new things to wear for their outings. Nomoto is relying on searching online again while Kasuga is just kind of bored of her standards. Through their individual searching/musing, they simultaneously wonder what it would be like to dress up to complement the other's usual style. Then they show up for their outing and whoops! They ended up dressing as opposites but they look amazing!
The second one is about Kasuga wondering if maybe she could help Nomoto start up a VousTube (lol) channel though Nomoto isn't confident enough for it. They practice, and Kasuga is noticing her capturing of Nomoto's cooking just doesn't look quite right, especially since her shot of the chopping is being obscured by Nomoto's hand there. A lot of those channels use overhead shots, right? How do they do it? Kasuga thinks she knows a shortcut and the result is hilarious (then we get a little "no no" message from Yuzaki-sensei telling folks to not try what Kasuga did at home. Tis dangerous. Kasuga turns her phone off in response and Nomoto gets a chance to recoup from the moment of closeness).
FAVORITE DISH (Comic-Only)
It's spoilers, so I won't show it, but I really gotta give it to Kasuga's bento for Nomoto from Chapter 46. THE BEST!! [Though whenever S3 happens, this may have to change if they adapt the scene since I said this is "comic-only" dishes lol]
Because of the nature of my top pick, I'll share the runner up as well: The banana cake Nomoto makes to distract herself from her budding physical attraction toward Kasuga get her mind refocused lol
FAVORITE BIT OF TRIVIA (Comicverse)
The fact that this random, one-off lady from Chapter 16 is basically the inspiration for Sayama's appearance in S1 of the drama. Ever noticed that? Well, now you have!
FAVORITE (postable) ILLUSTRATION
I say "postable" as there are some pics I have in my files from Sensei's IG account, but they say to not repost or edit, so I'm being honorable with that (you CAN find them on her IG, though. They're still there)
So what CAN I post? This one, for sure!
A special illustration we were all treated to when Chapter 50 hit. It actually focuses on Yako and Nagumo, but I guess Sensei wanted to commemorate the milestone chapter with SOMETHING containing Nomoto and Kasuga so we got this shot of sweet, adorable domestic-ness. The pertinent text you need to know is the yellow text next to Kasuga: "Feeling our way around one another as we live together as a couple."
FAVORITE FAN ART THAT I MADE (Comicverse)
Hey, can't have these superlatives without hyping my own contributions that I made this year! This one's my personal fave, back when I did some local leaf peeping on a day off. I took the photo myself and then added Nomoto and Kasuga to the picture...it turned out really good! I think they ended up blending in perfectly!
BEST DUMB MEME I MADE (Comicverse)
Like with my regular art, I love all my memes...but this one tops them all. lol
[Tune in next time for Drama Superlatives!]

name elio gore. nickname el, ellie ( if you're close enough ). age twenty - nine. date of birth april 29th 1995. gender cis - male. sexuality bisexual, male leaning. pronouns he / him. languages known english, spanish, asl + currently learning french. height 6'2, 188 cm. occupation piercer at devil's ink. face claim michael evans behling.
( + ) charming, cheerful, witty, modest, sympathetic, logical, creative, insightful, persuasive, methodical, independent, patient, compassionate. ( - ) tough, rowdy, sarcastic, compulsive, obnoxious, reactionary, insincere, disobedient, argumentative, deceptive.
hobbies posting his stuff on instagram, poetry, hiking. likes good food, spending time with friends, music. dislikes serious family politics, his fuck ass degree. quirks carries a "lucky" coin with him in his wallet a client once gave to him. strengths how true to himself he is, his independence. weaknesses family, it all leads back to family. aesthetics you're looking outside and the birds chirp like it's another saturday morning except it's still and you can't see your reflection in the mirror... you worry if you ever exist; you will peel an orange for your beloved, for your family, to show you care and that you're listening but little do they know it's molded on the other side that has made its way to the core, it's completely inedible; so much laughter is your life, sometimes it's loud and your stomach hurts or it comes out silently. only when you go up to wipe your tears away, a bit of your flesh comes off with it. it doesn't hurt, you realize. inspirations jayce talis, league of legends / arcane. ichiban kasuga, yakuza: like a dragon. korra, legend of korra. dante, devil may cry; but also that one loud, confident person in high school that stood up for quiet / nerdy kids and made others stand on business + doesn't hesitate to smack stupid people.
THE STORY STARTS HERE ... u get bullet points for now tw for brief mentions of familial death and terminal illness.
born into five siblings, it's hard to make sure he stands out from the rest, especially when his ambitions are the same, yet vastly different from the rest. the environment is similar to eat or be eaten, despite fighting against those standards. everyone expects great things from him but also feels pity for him and his younger siblings, children that just happen to be apart of a family empire of media.
so he grows up defiant, rowdy, and loud, even getting into fights in school, anything to get attention from anyone. he thinks it works but it's right back to square one because of course they have better things to do than to coddle a child and give him exactly what he wants. he gets told that, when he gets older, there's no messing around or acting like a fool... his father expects the best, just like everyone else, even if some got some leniency. maybe, just maybe, he'll get a taste of what it's like to inherit a company, just like his grandfathers. he can't lie, it's extremely tempting and he would be set for life, but is it something he really wants to do? his elder brother and sister have a better chance of obtaining it, after all.
when he graduates high school, he sobers up and realizes how serious the scenario is and that's when time becomes a blur. it's almost immediately he goes straight into college, majoring with a graduate in finance to prove to his grandfather that he is serious about inheriting the business, not without minoring in social media marketing where he lives and studies out of state in california.
he'd like to think he cared about his grandparents but ( TW FOR FAMILIAL DEATH ) when his grandmother died, there wasn't much of anything, witnessing sunken eyes and a throat that could no longer support a confident, lovely voice. he thought that maybe he was just a little bit broken that he couldn't spare tears for a grievance. ( / TW FOR FAMILAL DEATH ) with not much contact with his siblings, he left once again.
while in college, he worked in a rather big, well known music business ( spotify nyehe ) in the finance branch while having contact with celebrities. one would say this is their greatest achievement when something great like this is expected? it's as they say, being in wealth has its perks.
after he graduates college, there's no hesitation when he there's news that ( TW FOR TERMINAL ILLNESS ) his grandfather becomes ill with no time to say when it'll come ( / TW FOR TERMINAL ILLNESS ). so he leaves his job where he works as a piercer, losing his business standings. he tells his family that this is just a side hustle, it's not a job he takes seriously but this is the most fun he's had in any job and even gets to manages the businesses instagram ( guess that degree in social media marketing does come in handy ). still, the hunger to take his grandfather's inheritance by the throat makes him parched and his stomach growling. it's a haunting and a desire all the same and he will play his siblings game to get it if he has to.
WITTLE FUN FACTS ........ headcanons as people say
has actually used his money to donate to several charities that surround supporting lgbtqia+ youth, hunger to the homeless, and wildlife conservation.
his favorite music genres are metal, r&b, breakcore, and that kind of music to chill and relax to ( which include those Nintendo Videos, like these ).
was one of those kids to be like 'want me to give you a piercing?' with a rusty safety pin. he might've gotten in trouble for doing that and getting his friends ear infected ... at school.
had that quickly shattered dream of being a video game streamer.
not really that close to his siblings, excluding his younger sister, and mainly just lives in his own little world.
almost went to college majoring computer science but switched them at the last minute.
definitely did those 'making meals in my college dorm' tiktoks.
got really into poetry from his love of music and finds it a good way to express his feelings and emotions. this is basically hidden from everyone. he occasionally does slam poetry at coffee shops when just writing them down isn't enough.
really adores ferrets and sharks.
was interested in tattoos and piercings for awhile and even vaguely studied to become one. he realizes he's better at piercing than tattooing. just doesn't have the gift for art and that's okay.
masks around his family to believe he's serious, hard - headed, and absolutely determined. whether they believe that or not doesn't bother him. he knows how to act "professional" when he needs to.
he's really not THAT good of a guy. he's compassionate to those that deserve it and doesn't see anything wrong with flaunting what he has to others that don't have the same luxuries he does when that person is being an asshole. it's all an act. everything is.
HOT - TO - GO CONNECTIONS
ignoring the typical go - to connections ( friendship, familial, and romance ) what about that close friend(s) that have been there since the beginning and he somehow manages to keep in contact with them all this time. his anchor but also his stress ball. no, i will not elaborate.
i know he's pissed off some people so give me those that cannot stand him / or his money but like... you wanna fuck me so bad it makes you look stupid.
clients that are his regulars, even bringing in coffee or snacks for the both of them. same place and time?
coworkers... i know you got some juicy gossip for him.
buddies from college or his old job. perhaps you only got close to him because you knew he came from money or he just had that nice approach about him.
crushes on him or on your muse *tucks hair*.
rich kid4rich kid. thank you.
past hook - ups / random sexual history.
just honestly everything and anything, idc give it to me.
