Merry almost Christmas 🎄

Hmmmm alright what about a Farmer with commitment issues? Like they've lived a nomadic life for a WHILE now, and genuinely so wanna settle down for good in Mistria, but they haven't even unpacked their things yet.

They just don't know what it's like to have a home yknow?

WHEEE answers under the cut

Adeline:

low key has a hard time not taking it the wrong way

spirals a bit from time to time thinking you don't like her or you don't like her that much

what if she read all the signals wrong??

what if you don't feel the same way???

IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH HER????

maybe it's better this way, you're really great and she just relies on you so much so she must seem like a burden SPIRAL SPIRAL SPIRAL

but she actually keeps it all to herself (or at least, she doesn't verbalize this all, she def is not playing it as cool as she thinks she is)

honestly though no matter how anxious she is about it, she really will kinda wait for you forever

or until you make it clear you're actually really not interested

I do feel at some point it'll boil over and she's gonna word vomit her worries and woes to you

the most honored she ever felt was when the person she loves finally chooses her <3

and once you do, she honestly never doubts your feelings again

Balor:

oh SAME

honestly you two spend so much time quietly pinning over a relationship that you're both sure will never happen but you never actually even try and make a move about that it gets kinda ridiculous

also after a certain point everyone just KNOWS

they know already, just kiss, STARS ABOVE

Hemlock is def the one Balor pours his heart out to the most

Hem is actually really supportive even after watching a drunken Balor get all teary eyed over a relationship that'll probably happen eventually (though he is still rolling his eyes)

you two hold out actually going for it for FOREVER

and all the while you're looking at each other so dreamily and are constantly there for each other and just SO CLEARLY PINING

if you're not the one to go for it eventually Balor will

there's only so many times you can see him off so sweetly without him wanting to officially give you a good bye kiss

he stumbles over his words a lot and he's not sure how to put any of it

he's honestly never been so nervous in his life

he admits he's bad at sticking around, but Mistria is so nice-- and it's even better with you in it

and now he can't imagine actually leaving

at least not for good

he still needs to run his business

but now he gets to give you that good bye kiss when he leaves (and when he comes home <3 )

Caldarus:

super confused

is sure he's reading something wrong into all this

and also certain his feelings are not reciprocated

he's honestly resigned to holding a little candle for you forever

after all, he got so fond of you when he was still stone-- he knew the most likely scenario was him watching you live a long happy life, most likely with someone else

but seeing you happy is his dearest wish, so that was enough

and so this new form honestly changes very little

well, except now he can take you in new and exciting ways

the warmth of your hand, the scent of your hair and skin, the comfort of your presence

it makes the feelings hard to ignore and impossible to deny but like I said, he's resigned himself to just watching you be happy

any little moments between the two of you, ones that hold a flicker of romantic feelings that you both will never act on...

well, they're just stolen moments he supposes, something that will ultimately be meant for someone else

little fleeting treasures for him to cherish always (he is a dragon after all, and what's a dragon without some treasures! especially ones for the soul)

so he will probably expect nothing, even if he does feel his feelings for you have become too great for him to not make spoken

he's just confessing to 'get it off his chest'

but when you return the feelings, and agree to stay with him-- it's like the sun became brighter and a whole new world has opened up

you will never be rid of him

he will cherish and love you with every beat of his heart until his dying days

I hope you're ready, cause there's no commitment like there is with a dragon

Celine:

Another worrier

feels she's being awkward and embarrassing

tries to play it cool

fails SPECTACULARLY

convinced it's just a dumb little crush she has that would definitely never be reciprocated and she wants to bury her feelings in her garden bed so so so SO BAD!!

but then she sees your face and your dreamy smile and hears your voice and she's falling all over again

she's so smitten and she's trying to hard to hide and deny it

even to herself

CONVINCED she's misreading every sweet little moment between you two

YOU'RE JUST THAT NICE AND FRIENDLY

WHY DOES SHE HAVE TO BE SO WEIRD WITH HER BIG STUPID CRUSH AHHH

but then when all the feelings are out in the open she's just---

she feels in bloom

she's so deliriously happy

she still worries sometimes that she likes you more than you like her

but as time goes on, she'll abandon those fears in favor of enjoying your love together

Eiland:

honestly takes a while for him to even notice he has a crush himself

he's sure a week later it could never work

you're so traveled and worldly and cool and strong and amazing

and he's just kinda-- him

so he's certain the little moments between you two are just romantic day dreams he's making up in his head

you're just friends, you're just being friendly

and he wouldn't want to lose a colleague like you!

besides your such a cool little tumbleweed, you'd probably never settle down

and even if you did, you wouldn't with a dork like him

he's just some nerd in the dirt, and you're just super nice

HE'S NOT SPIRALING, YOU'RE SPIRALING!

HAHAHAHAHA

anyways, the self doubt machine is really whirling today!

when everything finally comes out he legit thinks he might faint from anxiety

but he's also really happy

he's giddy and surprised and shaking cause he can't seem to stop

I think he legit spends a while into the relationship worried you'll get bored of him and just leave (at least that's what happens in his nightmares)

honestly the only thing that helps those fears is just spending time with you

you're honestly so darling with him, he's gonna swoon

Hayden:

sort of resigned a bit to he's probably not going to get married

and it's true he's got a little flicker of something for you, but he's not going to act on it

he treats his fondness for you like a delicate little egg he keeps but isn't expecting to hatch

just a little flame he let's sit warm in his heart

any little moments you share he knows aren't just him, but he also doesn't think they're anything

the looks you've shared, the smiles between you two, the way you've held his hand

it's obvious you care about each other a lot

but nothing's gonna come of it

it's just a little bit of sweetness, no reason to let it over take you

he can't help thinking about it though

he won't say anything, but if pressed, he'd admit he spends most of his nights thinking about you now

how nice it is to have you around

how happy you make him

how wonderful it would be if you two...

but no, you're a rolling stone and he's home grown and planted down

if someday you wanna make tracks again, he doesn't wanna be the anchor weighing you down

when things finally get out in the open, and you say you want to stay by his side

he's gonna have to fight himself every day to take it slow

and not IMMEDIATELY bridal carry you to the court house and make it official for good

Juniper:

acts like she couldn't care less that the farmer is playing so hard to get

but is also constantly around the farmer trying to get their attention

she's paying attention to you and you're not immediately falling to her feet??

what is this???

is this some kind of game???

ah, alright, you're playing the long con

she can understand

two can play that game

so goes back and forth between being miffed and low key ignoring you

and giving you all of her attention

also anytime you two actually spend quality time together she's so so giddy

well, as giddy as Juniper gets

when push comes to shove and all the feelings are out on the table and you're both finally a couple, all she has to say is

'Well-- Good. It's about time!'

with the biggest blush on her face

March:

honestly takes it your indecisiveness the hardest out of the lot

and his own back and forth wishy-washy denial of feelings

just makes every time you give him butterflies feel STUPID

you just make him feel STUPID

STUPID for liking you

STUPID for letting you in

STUPID for thinking you might like him back

STUPID for getting his dumb hopes up

STUPID STUPID STUPID

he claims he couldn't care less, but the moment he sees your face a little rush of joy flashes through him and he can't ignore it (though he does try)

and interacting with you genuinely brightens his day, and it actually makes him really happy

and he thinks, 'this isn't so bad... maybe I should just--'

but that's when you always back away

and he just kinda feels rejected and shuts down and the moment you walk out the door he's right back to kinda hating you

and himself a little bit...

it's honestly a pretty vicious cycle

when all is said and done and you two finally give this thing you have a real shot, he won't lie, he's kinda nervous

and a little bit scared

though it comes out more like

'Good. I'm glad we settled this. And don't think this is just some-- dumb fling that's not gonna last. I'm planning to see this through and you better be too cause you're stuck with me. Well... good talk!'

and then he sprints off cause just cause you're dating doesn't mean he suddenly got any less shy about his emotions lol

Reina:

honestly??

even through all your wishy-washy bullshit, she never looses hope you're gonna figure it out

like, she can tell you like her

and she likes you

and she can't see a reason for this not to work

but if you wanna run in circles then--

I guess you're lucky she's down to wait for you

and she will wait for you

cause even through all the back and forth, she does really like you

also watching you run around in circles like a love struck indecisive idiot is a little funny

all the same, she doesn't intend to be dramatic like everyone else

she's got too good a head on her shoulders

now shut up and kiss her already

Ryis:

pining MASTER

he's so into you

and he's so confused why you seem into him but you keep putting him at arms length??

he's a little hurt by it all, but honestly he's more confused

like-- if you want him to back off, just let him know

he doesn't wanna feel like he's making you uncomfortable

but if you're into him and he's into you then he's just---

confused why you're not kissing yet???

but he's patient and he likes you A LOT so he's willing to wait

in the mean time he's be venting his woes to his uncle whose just as confused as he is

but also just as hopeful

when you finally get together he honestly never questions or doubts whether or not you wanna actually stay

if you ever want to leave then that's a conversation to have

but for now, he's just going to enjoy your time together

and quietly hope it lasts forever

(also he's so ready to kiss you he doesn't even care at this point lol)

Valen:

does not know what you're doing

but also is pretty sure you don't know what you're doing either

you both seem to thoroughly enjoy each others company

there's even an undeniable spark between the two of you

but any time she steps forward, you step back

and anytime you step forward, you also step right back again

he's patient but not this patient

she may not know everything, but she at least knows what she wants

and she wants you

and when you're ready to stop running from whatever you two could be together

well, you know where to find her

and she'll be waiting

but not forever so--

tick tock

Hi! I just wanted to know about your drarry preferences! Like topdracox bottomharry other other way around. Or switch ordo yiu just not care at all? I know it's a weird a question but I'm curious. I'm more of top dm x bottom hp type of person. Hope it's okay to ask!

Also, if you do ship top dm and bottom hp do you know any good recs without those. Smut isn't like a prerequisite or anything. Anything cute and drarry will be fine.

Sight, thank you! Bye!!

hi!! i usually have a very minor preference for ship order and don't mind seeing it both ways as long as the content is good. for drarry, i think i went into it thinking i'd like hp/dm a little better but then i read so much good fic of dm/hp that i think now i truly feel completely neutral about it.

as long as it's good and they're hopelessly pining for each other im ok with anything! i personally am just not a fan of either one of them being portrayed as overly feminine, that's my only hard preference.

as for fic recs… wait so can you confirm--you're interested in fics WITHOUT top dm and bottom hp? oh god, because i have come to accept both hpdm and dmhp it's actually hard for me to remember who does what in the fics because i no longer really pay attention hahaha. i'm fairly sure that in a lot of my favs, they switch.

since i'm not sure which way you wanted for the fic rec i'll drop one rated T fic rec since i read this recently and thought it was cute. it's Hermione Granger's Hogwarts Crammer for Delinquents on the Run by waspabi. the premise is that Harry doesn't find out he's a wizard until he's seventeen. the drarry in it is very cute imo!! and i loved the dialogue especially, it was written very smartly and very in character imo.

No no no, kpop revalink angst let’s hear it 🧍‍♀️

(in reference to this post)

OUH GIRL NO DONT MAKE ME THINK ABT SAD THINGS *pulls out my notes of angst ideas*

thinking about revalink angst in terms of them being in the same group is actually killing my soul so let's come up with a different angsty au together 🤞

ok idea number one revalink as hyuna and dawn

honestly I don't know much about hyuna and dawn LMAO so we're gonna make something up. they're in the same label and they get put on a collab stage together or something, and the chemistry they have is so 🤭 they start talking more and eventually get together yay! but then drama happens and they leave the company to go to a different one, they get engaged and they're so happy but then one day link posts on his Instagram that they broke up?? and everyone is heartbroken and actually revali sees this and is like wtf is link breaking up with me over an Instagram post??? he couldn't be bothered to tell me to my face? because actually they had not broken up! turns out link's Instagram got hacked and he had no idea, but this causes so much miscommunication between them and yeah but they eventually sort it out and then get married yay! 😊

IDEA NUMBER TWO they're from different labels and their managers decide to make them fake-date to increase both of their publicities

hey guys so actually I love fake dating aus 🫶 omgeeee practicing holding hands and kissing to make it believable and then they get all flustered with each other.. great ideas yes yes, plus so much potential for angst + miscommunication when they think it's not mutual pining

so at first it goes great, their fans eat it up and they do end up getting more popular as two of the first openly queer idols in the industry. but then dispatch comes out with a cheating scandal bc like,, link hugged mipha or something AJDBAJDN so yeah. idk my ideas are not very creative lmao 😭

THREE they were together but the fans bullied them so hard they broke up, and now all they do is write sad love songs abt each other

idk what more to say. angsty love songs. yup. CONSIDER: the truth untold, she's in the rain, and 0x1=lovesong noraiir im crying rn and this is all your fault

hey guys wtungsten also recommended don't wanna cry pls go blame them for my tears LIKE???? just go look at the lyrics good bye

[musette22]

Minnieeeee my love 💕💕💕 I hope you’re having the best evening!!

For the trope game, how about:

Didn’t know they were dating

Identity Porn

bye i love you 😘

Mayaaaaaa, my darling angel! 💖💖💖💖 Thanks for dropping by, ily 🥰

Ooohhh good ones, thank you!! Okay so the Didn't know they were dating is a FUCK Yes from me, it's pretty spectacular ngl. Because it implies that they're stupid, you're honour, so very stupid and oblivious, and I love that in my fictional men who are in love with each other ❤️ The only reason it's not an 'Oh my god you don't even know' is because I think it usually means they're more or less unaware of their feelings, and I just like it even better when they actively PINE for each other like they're in a Jane Austen novel 💞

Identity porn is a tricky one for me. It can be so so good when done well, and it has so much potential for yearning and intrigue and dramatic reveals, but I do have a hard time with the fact that usually with this trope, one of our boys (I'm obviously talking Stucky fic and nothing else here lol) falls for and/or sleeps with someone that they don't know (yet) is actually Steve or Bucky, i.e. the other half of their soul. When it's done well, it's usyally made clear thay they only are attracted to this mysterious stranger because they remind them of their soulmate and on some level they just know it's them, even without knowing. So then I can definitely enjoy a bit of identity porn!! But I don't like it when it feels like they're just sleeping with an attractive stranger and only later find out it was actually Steve/Bucky all along. That feels too much like "cheating" to me, and I don't like that at all. I'd rather they resign themselves to never loving/having sex again when they think they've lost the other forever then them getting involved with other people, honestly 🙈 So I'd say it's a Sure from me on this one?

Sorry for being so long-winded lmao, I happen to have Thoughts on that one! Thanks for asking, I love you, sending kisses!! 😘😘
