@listen-to-the-inner-walrus back again with the peer-review-worthy tags
it does still make me insane specifically how many queer people lovingly embrace astrology. I went to a poetry workshop yesterday that was genuinely quite good but also included an option to disclose astrology designations during introductions and so many people broke out some variation of "I'm a [x] sum but I have a [y] placement and it SHOWS" girl no it doesn't. that's meaningless correlation you completely invented the causation
#never got the astrology hype tbh#i like looking at what people think about me based on my signs and examining how i feel about it#bc i feel like the way i react to people perceiving me in these ways tells me about myself#like I'm supposed to be intuitive (so not true) and my reaction to being told i 'should' be can be interesting iykwim?#but the actual signs don't mean anything to me all the descriptions are so generic#i feel basically the same with the MBTI and similar pseudoscience tests and metrics#the only benefit i get from it other than laughs is examining my immediate reaction to the conclusions#like why do i feel put off by being told I 'should be' intuitive? why do i feel like the test is correct to call me 'turbulent'?#...this probably doesn't make any sense at all lmao#look at me being fucking chatty in the tags#casey rambles

surprise visit | T.S
previous part | next part
or check out the series masterlist
summary ; someone pays you a surprise visit
warnings ; arranged marriage!trope, slow burn , fem!reader
a/n ; so i took a break! but im back with a new character that will piss all of you off <3
-
"i still can't believe she did that" you say with a frown , your hands scrubbing the dishes
you're in celest's house, with madeline and fiona. rose had caught a cold, and you thought she might need the help.
"listen.... i love your mother i do" fiona sighed , a towel in her hand as she dried the plate "but that was so....... "
"unnecessary" madeline added, her back pressed to the counter as she talked to the both of you
"more like insane" you corrected, grabbing another plate to clean "i mean why would she do that? couldn't she have just waited until the party was over?"
"you should see 'er face when she saw tommy." madeline snorts a laugh and fiona glared at her , putting a finger to her lips telling her to shut up
"tommy?" you repeat, you turn to madeline. "tommy spoke to 'er?"
"wouldn't say spoke more like...." madeline trails off
"he put the fear of god into 'er." fiona's resolve broke, this drama was too entertaining for her to not partake in
"what?" you can't help the laugh that escaped you, you dry your hand and turn to press your back against the kitchen sink "what did he say?"
"well.... i doubt they knew we were listening." madeline look at fiona
"they didn't but..." fiona puts down the plate and the towel, copying you and resting her back against the counter "he told 'er to apologize to ya, and said that he'd drag 'er out of the wedding if she thought of pulling something like that"
"i almost pissed myself and it wasn't even directed to me." madeline shudders
"oh yeah he sounded fucking scary, and very angry." fiona nodded
you just stare at the both of them with an amused smile.
"ya wanna know what else he said?" madeline wiggles her brows at you and you raise yours
"what?"
"your mum said that it's a family matter that he shouldn't middle in, and he said 'she's my family.'" she says the words in a rough voice, mimicking tommy
you hate this feeling, the feeling of a hundred butterflies in your stomach at the thought of him saying that.
you try to roll your eyes and act indifferent, but the smile says everything.
"right." you're tone is sarcastic
"i swear on my life!" madeline exclaimed
"he did say that, it's true" fiona points at madeline and nods
"well...." you try to hide the giddiness "he was pretty...... nice to me that night."
madeline and fiona look at each-other before pouncing on you
"oh my god!"
"what did he say?"
"what did he do?"
"oh my god did ya two kiss?" fiona gasps, putting a hand over her heart.
"no!" you hiss at her, waving a hand "and keep your voice down! celest and the children are asleep."
"ya got me all excited." madeline grumbles, crossing her arms
"all i said that he was being nice! ya two just love jumping to conclusions"
you tried to avoid your mother as much as you could, which was hard considering you live in the same house.
you sat in the living room, with renne. she was showing you all the baby clothes she had gotten
"look at the little pants" your voice is filled with excitement "i can't wait to meet the baby."
"believe me , i want it out of me as soon as possible" she mumbles, her hand on her belly. "i love the baby to bits, i do. but god does she like to kick my organs around."
"she?" you ask with a raised brow
"oh right" she waves a hand "your father said that he was it in a dream."
"he saw your baby?" you chuckle
your father was part gypsy, and he swore up and down that those visions were passed down to him, his dreams and intuitions.
"what else did he see?" you ask jokingly
"he saw ya." she nods
"me?" your brows furrow
"he didn't tell me what he saw, but he said ya were there" she sighed , folding the baby clothes
"why didn't he tell me?"
"no idea" she shrugged "didn't he dream that ya will get married ?"
"he did, but i think that was mostly wishful thinking" you snicker , helping her fold the soft pieces of clothing
"i do believe 'im , ya know." she looks at you
you smile at her "i do too, to a degree."
you both turn, as your mom walks in and calls your name
"someone is here for you." she looks you up and down
your brows pinch in confusion, why is she looking at me like that?
you look at renee before getting up and walking towards the door , and you see a face that made you want to vomit
"jeremy?" you almost look bewildered "what the fuck are ya doing here?"

repetition (a pick-a-pile)
in honor of my friends kai ( @klxudykai )and nile (who doesn’t want to be tagged), i want to do a little pap! this will be black white and purple themed for them too (their pfp colours)
i know both of them are going through cycles of repeating their actions over and over, and it is hard for them. i know it’s frustrating — hell i hate repetition. but you find peace in it.
this pick-a-pile is just advice for your manifesting and/or shifting journey. there is no real theme, but i asked spirit to bring up something you need to repeat for each pile.
this pap is intuition and shufflemancy-based. i am not using tarot nor cards at all for this. this is also for entertainment purposes. take my words with a grain of salt AND please do not use this as legal or life advice.
now, inhale and exhale. believe in your intuition, and pick a picture.
[1 ; 2
3 ; 4]
pile 1 the spiral.
hi pile 1! here’s confirmation for your pile : cycles, crying, cynical, the letter c (in your name of in the name of your significant other. casey and clark stand out.), puns, clairaudience, crown, clowns, (a lot of words w the letter c jesus christ..), underwater, drowning, sinking, the sea, oceans, water (s), fix your face, black, sexism, activist, reality shifter, cyclones, spirals, “i feel like im not seeing any signs/progress”
well pile one, you could feel like you are stuck in a cycle. just a torpedo and you’re getting hit with the same things over and over. you’re wondering why things aren’t changing, why this won’t end, but it’s because YOU won’t change. this is the harshest i think i have ever been in a pick a card, but you really need to get over yourself. realize you aren’t the person you should be, throw that person away and reinvent yourself. you want a lot in life, and you aren’t going to get it if you don’t decide to change yourself. the universe chose you for a reason, but if you keep having your own pity party, you aren’t gonna get anywhere. stop getting mad when you’re being told the truth. it isn’t there to hurt you. it’s there to help you. the truth is a tool. and as long as you keep ignoring it, you keep hiding from the monster inside your closet, it’s never gonna leave. it’s gonna haunt you. it’s like a negative spirit. lure it out and keep it coming. it is gonna hurt, but it’s worth it.
your required repetition is “continue to listen and change yourself. transformation.”
the waiting season is one where you need to work, don’t keep sulking.
now to interpreting your song, her by poppy. you have been trying to be someone else that you are not, for someone else. the chorus
���I'm getting to know her And all of her anger You won't recognize her If you encountered I'm getting to know her And all of her anger Picked herself up Put her back together”
you need to change and you know it, and you don’t know how. start with your anger, your sadness, a strong emotion and unravel it. unwrap it like a gift. keep pulling to you get to the root of the cause — hold it.. nurture it… and get the mud off it.
see this as a new start, pile one. i love you. you need to know you’re strong, and you can do this. don’t get annoyed, because i know you’ve been told this before. fix your face.
pile 2 ghouls
hello pile 2! here’s confirmation this is your pile!!: fairies, love, purple, green, heart chakra and third eye chakra, shadows, “on a silver platter”, polite, scars, romance, sacred, girl blogger, skull and bones, doja cat, fear of success, screaming, pink, sexuality, white, sensuality, fire and ice, opposites, blood, self sabotage, royalty, alternative, goth, knight, disability, multilingual, this specific dynamic, vampire
simplicity. simplify everything. that’s all spirit is saying. don’t over complicate things. that’s like all spirit is saying u guys 😭😭
they r literally saying clear your mind, just be the person you are meant to be. listen to your intuition, be creative, have love in your heart, even when times are hard, and let emotions flow.
spirit told me your manifestations are actively coming in 😭😭 idek why you’re reading this pac! like there are no notes, nothing else you need to do. just listen to your intuition and be in tune with yourself. god i love this pile bc yall r js so sweet and light hearted — like there’s so much hidden positivity here that’s waiting to come out.
good job on how far you’ve come, and hav fun where you’re going! love you pile 2!
pile 3 — unclear memory
hi pile 3! here’s your confirmation: “even a worm will turn”, disappointment, ditsy, protector, big eyes, proposal, hobbit core, hermitcraft, minecraft, silence, under another’s control, blush, light colours (pastels), resting, new opportunities, distractions, distant, chapell roan, wlw.
you’re over possessive but you cut out your heart. or someone else cut it out. you need to get your priorities straight. there’s so much going on in your brain. they all lead to the same thing, don’t they? like how a spider web meets in the middle.
you’re sad, i can tell, but you won’t let anyone know. you think you’ve done enough, or even too much, but in reality you’ve been distracted. you’re trying to hide your main in overworking. doing too much.
your repeating advice is “get back on track and focus on your morals”.
but dont become some else. become yourself. stop holding grudges. get yourself back.
pile 4 — kisses
hi pile 4! here’s confirmation this is your pile: shadow work, brooklyn nine-nine, wolf pack, furry, july, suicidal but continuing, height difference, jumbled thoughts, flowers, blue and pink, wash off the makeup, ombré, counting crows poem.
this is my dogs favorite song 😭😭
pile four, you have been looking for outer validation when you don’t need it. you’re searching for signs, for love, for confirmation you’re on the right path when you really jay need yourself. you’re putting yourself down and other people/the universe on a pedestal. YOU ARE THE UNIVERSE!! REALIZE THAT!
what you say goes. what you want will happen. and that’s that.
your advice is as follows ; “you need to just rest.”
and i think that’s great advice. sit down and relax. listen to music, meditate, be at peace. work on yourself. try journaling too!! it will help.
thank yall for reading!! <3 i hope this helps someone. finishing this at 5:55 pm btw!!

Messages From Your Mental Prison
Hi, Hexlings!
This pick-a-card reading is about your mental health and the state of how you view the world and everything that is going on in your life. This could be about your depression, Anxiety, or even suicidal thoughts. Read with caution as this reading may have triggers.
This is a general reading, remember to take what resonates and leave what does not. This reading does not supplement your need to seek professional help. Tarot should be used as entertainment and not a for sure answer to your problems but as a guide, a sense of hope, and amusement.
Take your time when choosing your pile. Ask yourself the question and choose the picture that you can’t stop looking at. Listen to your intuition.

TW Ahead Read With Caution
Pile l:
Messages From Your Mental Prison. Tarot: 8 of Pentacles (Reversed), 9 of Swords, 4 of Swords (reversed), 10 of Cups (reversed), Justice
This reminds me of the TikTok clip of the voice screaming "It's not fair. It's not fair." reminding me of how many people have probably told you that you handle stress and everyday life so well but little do they know your mental state is literally one inconvenience away from having a mental breakdown. Stress and anxiety practically camp out in your mind on a daily basis pile l. You can't seem to escape it, it's all you have known for quite a while and you're tired. There is a saying that "There is no sleep for the wicked" Well in your case "There is no sleep for the poor or those who lack the resources to pull themselves up in their life." All you want in life is enough to pay your bills and a little extra for savings and be able to do something with your life like try a new hobby without feeling guilty for spending money that isn't on "important" things like survival. You probably have been in survival mode for quite some time now and wondering when will you see a breakthrough. You're tired of being tired. You're tired of practically playing Russian roulette with your bills of which one can you not pay for this month. One thing I will say pile l is even though things may seem bleak please don't give up, I sense things will get better financially for you. Sometimes in life you just need to find your footing for things to take off.
Extra Messages: Tea Tree Leaf Oracle: Seek out information that will help you out, A Journey either physical or mental, unsettled times. Need to plan ahead, Announcement, Get back to the basics.
Pile l your extra message oracles make me believe that you feel lost, maybe even stuck for some of you with no clue in the world of how to better your situation or go about life. You have the get back to the basics card which sticks out to me like a sore thumb letting the game know that I sense you may be the type who always tries to do those get-rich-and-quick schemes like drop shipping or anything else you see that pops up on your social media feed and it never works out for whatever reason. You want to know why....it's because you aren't supposed to be doing that. That's not your path to riches. You have the 8 of Pentacles and 10 of Cups card but it's reversed meaning you are meant to have emotional and financial fulfillment you just need to stop and get back to the basics. What basics mystic? What is it that has been drawing or calling you in? What is something you keep putting off or not doing because you believe based on society and family it won't make you any money? For most of you, this is what you need to be doing. For others of you, you will be going on a journey where you need to find this out. Figure out what feeds your soul that you would do for free and do that but add tax. You are meant to freelance and be your own boss, not working for other people. Overall this is a journey process for you pile l. You will deal with more hard times as you figure this out but remember this journey is temporary to where you want to be, so keep pushing. An answer if it hasn't already will come to you.
Pile ll:
Messages From Your Mental Prison. Tarot: The Hermit, Page of Swords (reversed), Queen of Cups, 10 of Wands, 10 of Swords (reversed)
When was the last time you nurtured yourself or spent time alone and really tried to heal and nurture yourself with positive thoughts pile ll. It's a never-ending cycle of you constantly bombarding yourself with cruel words that aren't true. This reminds me slightly of the reading I posted titled Mystery pt. ll. But overall this feeling of yours feels more so as if the world has its weight on your shoulders and you feel as if you are a burden to those around you. You may live at home, with roommates, or feel that you constantly are asking anyone and everyone around you for help as if you can't do anything for yourself and you're tired. You're ready to be able to be independent without having to rely on others. Maybe others have made you feel bad as well for asking for help when you are down on your luck to where you just feel crushed, stuck, unable to move in a direction because one way people will make you feel bad for your predicament and the other hand you will make yourself feel bad because you feel whatever this is you should be able to do by yourself but can't because life is tough right now. As I mentioned in pile l you need to get back to the basics. Get back to the basics of life and take things one step at a time. You are doing the best you can with what you have and don't let anyone make you feel bad about that.
Extra Messages: Tea Tree Leaf Oracle: Position of authority, August, Someone you know is undependable and insincere, Slowly but surely getting ahead. Pay attention to your work, Good Fortune.
As mentioned your life while it maybe chaotic at the moment everything is a journey and slowly but surely things will get better and you will get ahead eventually. With the Position of authority I am seeing this in two ways some of you should pay attention to your work as there may be a position available for you in management where you can make more money this may happen around or sometime in August. If not within the company you work maybe this is an invitation to be your own boss or look elsewhere for higher positions especially if you have more than enough qualifications. For others of you, this position of authority is letting you know that you are the boss of your own life and have complete control of what goes on and who is in it. Never let people who claim to be friends or family make you feel bad for being on hard times. They aren't who they say they are and you should move accordingly with that information. Overall Good Fortune is in your cards by the end of this rough patch. You just need to focus and hone in on ways you can do more within your life with the resources of which you have. Again this could be moving up in the company or going elsewhere, where advancement is an option.
Pile lll:
Messages From Your Mental Prison. Tarot: The Star, The Sun, Ace of Pentacles (reversed), The Fool (reversed), Awakening
Pile lll, my babies, it's time to allow yourself to be seen by the world. It's time to stop hiding in the shadows allowing life to pass you by. You can't keep yourself in the mental prison of feelings of imposter syndrome, fear of judgment, etc. Life wants to give you financial blessings, especially with the Ace of Pentacles in Reversed but you are blocking them because you aren't doing what needs to be done. This could be you starting a YouTube channel, being a content creator on social media, writing a book or screenplay/ maybe even fanfiction for some of you, others this might just be you hiding from a promotion that you deeply desire but feel you lack experience, knowledge, etc. Whatever this is for you, you have to release the thoughts that plague your mind and go for the thing that puts you in front of everyone. Yes at first you may make mistakes or look cringe or whatever the issue may be but that's how everything is when you first jump deep into something. You make mistakes and people will talk...but you want to know something life moves on and the world doesn't end. Seriously do the thing, it's time. You will beat yourself up if others take the things that you want for yourself and you want to know something you have no one to blame but yourself because you decided to not do what needs to be done. Write the book. Film yourself. Apply for better jobs even if you think you are not qualified. Have you heard of the girl who applied to jobs she had no business doing and ended up getting hired making $100k a year...that could be you right now but you are stuck listening to self-doubt and the thoughts of what others will say. Storytime: I knew that I didn't want to continue working at whatever job I was working at back in 2015 so when my friend and I figured out that employers don't check a lot of your information we applied for positions that would pay us well and you want to know something the resume I lied on got me so far in life to where I was Assistant GM of hotels at one point. All because I believed I could do what others were doing in the hotel industry even without a lick of experience. Did I mess up in the beginning, yes. Did I care...no because I was doing more good than harm so no one really questioned if I lied or not. You have to take the jump. Do the thing.
Extra Messages: Tea Tree Leaf Oracle: Short Journey, Back to Basics, Work achievement & success, TIME TO ACT, Someone is extremely stubborn and unwilling to change, Protected from negative forces beyond your control, Solid foundation success with effort, waiting for news package or letter, A meeting with a strange could be important.
Pile lll do you see the amount of synchronicities in your oracle reading. Spirit is coming through loud and clear that you need to get out of your stubbornness and began acting on your dreams, goals, and desires. You are protected from anything that could try and take what this is away from you. Even with a solid foundation success with effort is telling you "Hey if you do the thing you will not fail because you are protected." Now this goes without saying that you won't deal with some challenges because that's life what it is saying is you will come out on top and the journey for you won't be a long one if you just do the effort that it takes. Spirit will do the rest if you just do what needs to be done.
Pile lV:
Messages From Your Mental Prison. Tarot: The Empress, Queen of Pentacles, 5 of Swords (reversed), 8 of Swords (reversed), 6 of Wands
You are victorious pile lV your only problem is that you don't believe you are worth a pot to piss in a lot of the time. Even with the Empress and Queen of Pentacles card here letting me know how nurturing, giving, empathetic, and even resourceful you are you don't see any good things about yourself. You remind me of people who speak negatively about themselves not knowing that their actions speak the opposite. You can't say you don't care but your actions speak another language. You can't put yourself down but then be upset when life mirrors your thoughts. Deep down you know how amazing you are and the many great things that you can do, but for some strange reason you recently for some of you while others of you this has been going on for a while where you constantly hold yourself to such a low standard and critic everything that you do. Why is that? Where did it begin? How can you remove this person or thing that made you feel this way? For some of you, this may have been a relationship (platonic, romantic, or familial) that made you feel self-critical of yourself because they felt something about themselves. You must remember that when people speak unkind things to you that it's a reflection of themselves and not you. You don't have to take what others think of you and run with it as if they are true because they are not. A scene that comes to mind is when the mom in Black Swan says "What happened to my little girl?" What happened to you that made you feel and think these thoughts to yourself and how can you get back to the Empress and Queen of Pentacle energy.
Extra Messages: Manifestation Oracle Cards: Wellbeing, Empowerment, Strength
How can you today give yourself the love that you deserve? Is it a DIY spa day? A trip to a therapist or talk with a trusted friend? How can you show up for yourself in ways that you haven't before that will make you see the person you are? Have the strength and courage to stand up to anyone who makes you feel any less than what and who you are. For a few of you, you may be a part of the LBGTQ+ community and others around you have made you feel different, a "freak" or whatever insecurity that you question your existence. There is a quote by Elenor Roosevelt that says "No one can make you feel inferior without your permission." Please don't let assholes who were raised by baboons let you lower yourself or feel anything less than amazing, beautiful, and authentically you. Regardless of how you feel about yourself find something in your life, day, or something as small as a freckle on your face that you love and keep bringing more of that energy in for you and keep your head up. This feeling is only temporary, things will get better.
Thank you for liking and reblogging my readings. I always appreciate you guys on here and on Patreon.
Stay safe and be blessed

pairing: werewolf!kakashi hatake x f!reader
word count: 5.2k
about: your boyfriend leaves you alone for one week every month and you can never seem to put your finger on why. convinced he’s cheating, you book a romantic getaway to pin him down and figure him out. while preparing to leave, you instead discover the hairy secret he has been keeping from you all this time.
contents: nsfw - mdni. cw knotting, cw mating, cw breeding kink. miscommunication with resolution, established relationship, piv sex, vaginal fingering, reader has breasts and is referred to as pretty and mate multiple times, reader has pubic hair, few mentions of birth control (reader is on it but method is not specified), sloppy and messy sex (saliva is mentioned but there is no specific instance of spitting)
notes: part of thot-o-ween 2023! ngl i had the most fun writing this one out of the whole group this far and i hope that it shows and you enjoy reading it! thanks for the support the last four weeks and i'm so glad we are getting into the thick of the good stuff now. ♡
“Don’t be ridiculous, he absolutely adores you.”
Despite the consistent reassurance of your best friend, you aren’t certain that your boyfriend Kakashi does adore you.
It’s not that he isn’t wonderful because he is. Supportive, serious without being a bore, and surprisingly humble - these are all things it takes no effort for you to feel and say about him. Despite this, you can’t shake the nagging distrust you’ve felt since he told you he’s going on his once a month week long business trip. Unfortunately, this time it coincides with a romantic getaway you tried to book for the two of you as a surprise. Despite days of trying to convince yourself that it’s nothing and you have nothing to worry about with his cyclical departures, you have a really bad feeling.
“I can’t explain it but my intuition is going crazy. It feels like he’s lying to me.”
Your mind has played through all of the reasonable possibilities for his departure and is now filtering through the unreasonable ones. The “he has a family he’s hiding from me” paranoia pings between your ears like a racing pinball and your friend can tell, her face set in a displeased frown. She has been placating you for the past five months, politely shoving you in the direction of speaking your mind to the man, but she knows you’re uncomfortable with the idea.
She reaches across the small table the two of you sit at, dotted with discarded napkins and cups full of rapidly melting ice, and grabs your hands between hers. You appreciate the gesture and squeeze her fingers with your thumbs, smiling softly.
“You already know my advice because I’ve given it freely. What you do next is completely up to you.”
Nodding, you know she’s right. She has told you to confront him, to snoop, to follow him and these all sound like wonderful ways to handle the issue in theory. In practice, though? That’s a different story.
Dropping her hands and picking your phone up from the table, you sigh and open the little green bubble that is the messages app. Kakashi’s thread is at the top of your list and you open it, smiling looking at his sweet wishes of a good evening with your friend.
Hope you’re having fun. See you soon. 😊
“I booked that cabin before he told me he was leaving, do you think I should still tell him about it?”
Your friend nods firmly, sticking to her earlier advice.
“Yes, you should have told him as soon as you planned the getaway but maybe he can arrange something with work if he knows. It’s still a week out.”
Sighing, you nod in agreement and tap out a message in response to your boyfriend, worrying your lower lip between your teeth.
I know this is kind of off the cuff and you already told me you’re going to be gone but I booked a cabin for all of next week for the two of us. If you can’t make it, I understand. Romantic surprises are so hard sometimes!
The message whooshes and shows as sent, the blue text bubble sitting as heavy as the anxiety in your stomach. It’s long winded and something you probably should have said in person rather than via text but considering how nauseous you already feel anticipating his answer, you think this may have been for the best. You lock your phone and place it back down, not wanting to stare at the screen any longer, and the waitress comes to drop off your check.
Just as you reach for the little black tray with your receipt, your phone pings and your eyebrows raise. You smile at the waitress as you slide your card onto the tray and send her off, picking up your phone as soon as it’s not rude to do so.
You are so thoughtful. Don’t worry about not saying something sooner, I will see what I can figure out. Thank you for doing something so sweet.
Maybe your mind really has been playing tricks on you. It’s hard to hide your grin as you pass the phone across the table and your friend smiles as she reads as well, holding her hands out and tilting her head.
“See? Good communication is key.”
You know she’s right.
Across town, though, Kakashi paces the floor of his bedroom wondering how the fuck he is going to make this work.
How he ended up landing someone like you is still beyond his rational understanding. You are too good to be true and booking a surprise romantic getaway, in any other situation, would be a gift. A luxury, even. Time spent with you, secluded, watching the autumn leaves fall? He couldn’t dream of anything more but next week simply does not work for him.
Pressing the screen of his phone wildly, he swipes through apps until he finds his moon phase tracker, popping open the calendar to see when exactly the full moon falls. He’ll get more details from you later but if you booked it from Monday to Sunday, he may be able to pull off leaving early but staying for most of the time. The full moon falls on Friday and realistically if he spent the week with you up until Thursday, he may be able to pull it off.
Sighing, he slumps down on the edge of his bed and scrubs his hand over his face. The luck he has had over the last few months hiding his secret from you has been nothing short of fortuitous and he’s glad for your trust in him even though it eats him up to lie about his whereabouts for a week every single month.
Putting you at risk is the last thing the man would ever want to do so he’s already taking a huge chance trying to make this week work knowing that his hormones are stronger in certain months rather than others. He has felt overcome by his instincts this entire month, it’s the reason he has buried himself in busy work rather than spending his free time with you, but he knows that if he hangs you out to dry this week it could result in him losing you.
That’s simply not an option he’s willing to entertain so he will figure it out despite how it makes his gut twist and his mind race.
Swiping off of the moon cycle app, he opens his messages and the cursor blinks at him tauntingly while he considers what to say.
I can come along Monday through Thursday if that’s alright with you?
Tapping the little blue arrow that sends the message off to you, he feels a weight on his shoulders that he can’t quite name. It’s sadness because he knows eventually he’ll have to tell you the truth about himself or let you go but selfishly, he wants to put it off for as long as he possibly can.
Something about you makes him believe that those old stories his dad told him growing up about their kind having fated mates may have been true. His mother was his father’s mate, she knew of his secret and kept it until the day she died, and despite this harsh world, Kakashi has always kept the smallest kindling of hope that it could be true.
Then he met you and his body all but told him it was, the ruts coming more consistently and stronger, lasting for longer than they ever have. What started as one day a month he had to hide away to keep from exposing himself became two days, and then three, and then an entire week having to seclude himself from you to keep from giving into his more base urges.
Another sigh leaves the man and he taps his feet against the floor beneath them impatiently, clutching his phone in his palm. Three pings in succession make him lift it to his face, squinting slightly thanks to the brightness of the screen, but he smiles reading your words.
Omg yay!!!
I’m glad to get you for even that long
Thank you for making it work for me
It’ll be a risk but he’s willing to take it to see your pretty smile and to spend time cozied up reading and watching your silly shows and enjoying each other.
It’ll all be worth it as long as he can keep control.
The days leading up to the trip pass uneventfully for you but Kakashi feels differently with each hour that passes, especially today.
He’s hot. Cloyingly and overwhelmingly, to the point he has to lay on his couch in nothing but boxers and an old tank top dug out of the back of his dresser drawer to try and cool down. Sweat glistens across his skin and his very bones ache, all of the blood in his body running to his cock and making it impossible for him to think.
When you arrive at his apartment to spend the night in order to make leaving in the morning simpler, you’re shocked to see him lying on the couch with one hand down his boxers halfheartedly playing with his hard cock with one arm thrown over his eyes. His cheeks are pink and he’s panting, only glancing up briefly when the door opens and shuts. He scrambles to sit up but you can tell he’s struggling, his abs tensing with every breath he takes.
“Oh babe, are you alright?”
Dropping your bags at the front door, you rush to his side and kneel on the ground next to where he is strewn across the sofa. You press the back of your hand to his clammy cheek and coo, your other hand tangling in his unruly hair and combing it away from his forehead. He doesn’t uncover his eyes but his breathing is so heavy you worry something is seriously wrong with him.
“Kakashi, what’s wrong? Are you sick? Do you need to go to urgent care?”
He shakes his head and groans, chest still heaving and you notice the tip of his cock peeking above the waistband of his boxers. It looks the same as you remember it in every way except for the color - so red, as if it’s blushing to be spotted and leaking a pool of sticky pre-cum onto the barely exposed skin his tank top isn’t covering. You know the two of you have been too busy the last several days to spend much quality time together and sex hasn’t been possible but you’ve never seen someone so horny they’re actually ill because all current signs point to that being the exact issue.
“Talk to me. What’s going on?”
Embarrassment keeps him from opening up. Kakashi is ashamed of who he is, a beast more than a man, and he’s even more ashamed that he has no way of keeping the secret from you any longer. This rut is too strong and he needs you to leave lest his instincts take over his logic. Pulling his arm from over his eyes, he tries to sit up and you assist him to the best of your ability, his cock throbbing through the thin fabric of his boxers and catching your eye despite your attempts to focus on his handsome face. His stormcloud colored eyes have never looked more tumultuous than they do right now and you reach out to cup his face, only for him to gently grasp your wrist and pull you away.
“Don’t touch me.”
The look on your face, brows pinched and mouth agape, reminds him that he’s a monster and not a man and he should have never brought you into his life. The only thing he can do is hurt you. His grip on your wrist is gentle and he loosens it further but you capture his hand in your own, eyes brimming with tears of frustration.
“Please tell me what’s happening,” your voice cracks as you speak and you feel warm tears spill down your face, irritated by your own ability to hold it together, but your worst fears are coming true in front of you. Something is off about your boyfriend, you were right, and now he’s denying your touch when he clearly needs it. “I just want to know the truth.”
The truth would be a heavy burden for both of you and the last thing he wants to do is force you to carry it with him despite the pleading look in your eyes and your quivering bottom lip.
“What are you hiding from me?”
Your voice cracks again and his heart breaks all over, gray eyes trained on your face despite his disgust with himself. Despite the tears and the way they blur your vision, you scan his face and drink in every feature because despite how you feel right now, you love this man. You were hoping to tell him so this week, tucked away in the idyllic countryside, and now you feel the dream slipping away from you.
“Are you married? Do you have another life?”
Desperation for the truth makes your hands shake and he shakes his head, blowing a breath out of his lips. He continues to feel so hot it’s painful, like he’s burning alive, and he is resisting inhaling and choosing to breathe through his mouth instead to keep from catching your scent that is gradually replacing all of the fresh air in the apartment.
Allowing you to hold his hand, he sits forward and looks you in the eyes. If his gut feeling is real, if what he believes about you is true, then he needs to be honest. If you are his mate then you’ll understand. His voice shakes when he speaks and you scoot forward on your knees, closing the distance between your bodies as much as possible, still kneeling on the floor next to him.
“I think I should be offended that you’d even think that about me.”
Despite yourself, you laugh and he hides a smile of his own, eyes darting away from you. He pulls you up to your feet and scoots over on the couch, hissing as you occupy his space even further. You are affecting him more strongly than you ever have and his self control thins with every moment that passes.
“I’m sorry, I just don’t know what else to think. The weeks away, the secrecy, all of it…my mind has filled in the blanks I don’t understand.”
Kakashi nods. He understands, he truly does, knowing that his behavior has been less than exemplary while he has tried to keep his secret from you, but he wants to right his wrong while his mind is still clear. His cock throbs angrily, still pressing against the bottom of his stomach even while he sits, and he knows it’s now or never.
“This is going to sound ridiculous but I’m not what you think I am.”
Tilting your head to the side, you look over your handsome boyfriend and wonder what he could mean. Is he lying about his job or where he’s from? He can tell you aren’t following so he looks away from you and tries again, spitting out the words he himself has tried to run from his entire life.
“I’m only half a man, the other half of me is something else entirely.”
Again, you look lost and he grasps your hands in his own hot ones and chuckles, letting his eyes shut.
“Werewolf. I’m a werewolf.”
He opens his eyes at the sound of your surprised laughter and he’s met with the smile he has found himself falling more in love with every single day, your nose scrunching the way he finds utterly adorable.
“Kakashi…” you start but he squeezes your hands and shoots you a look so earnest you feel guilty for ever questioning him. His cheeks have turned from pink to flaming red, the same color as the engorged tip that is still peeking out over the top of his boxers. Your jaw drops and he groans, eyes falling to your lips.
“What is happening right now is called a rut and unbonded men like me go through them occasionally.” You nod, understandingly. You are always unfailingly kind and patient to him, more so than he deserves for lying to you all these months. He takes your silence as permission to keep speaking and you remove your hand from his to push his sweat slicked hair off of his forehead, noticing the way his nostrils flare with your touch. “Mine have been happening more frequently than that, though, because of you.”
He expects to have lost you again and to see confusion on your face when his eyes flit up to look at you but instead he sees a sweet, almost nervous, half smile. You don’t know what he means or how you could possibly be affecting his rut but the insinuation that you have this strong of an impact on him is flattering to say the least.
Arousing too, you think while pressing your thighs together. Your focus shifts from the heat in your own core to Kakashi and you lean your head on his shoulder.
“How can I help you through this?”
Your boyfriend is far from shocked that this is your next question for him but he’s grateful, shaking his head and gazing at you nervously from the corner of his eye. You have been surprisingly okay with everything so far, or at least it seems like it, but he worries how you’ll react if he tells you everything.
“Well, ruts are usually resolved by…well, for lack of a better word, mating.” Nodding, you keep your cheek pressed to his shoulder. “It’s not just, you know, having sex like we usually do. It’s more than that.”
You shift where you sit and he watches you intently, gasping when you move to straddle him and sit on top of his thighs. His bulge presses against your core and you hum, still combing your fingers through his hair. Those instincts he was dreading continue to work at him, his mind all but overwhelmed with the sight and scent of you, and his mouth fills with saliva.
“I can handle a few days of fucking if that’s what will make you feel better,” you smile and press a kiss to his forehead, his hands finding their way to your hips and holding them tightly. His grip is harsher than he has ever touched you but it doesn’t hurt, it’s simply anchoring you in place. “But if that’s not all, I will do anything you need.”
He chuckles lowly, the sound sexy and ringing in your ears, and you instinctively grind down on his lap to relieve the tension of your own arousal. It doesn’t take much to turn you on, not when it comes to him, but the mystery of what you have to look forward to makes your head swim.
“I, uh…well, I’d need to knot you.”
Your eyebrows raise and your eyes glisten with mischief watching him search for the right thing to say.
“What does that entail?”
Again he sighs, cock throbbing painfully, and you press your lips to his forehead again. He holds you in place to keep your hips from grinding or bumping against him. His mind is growing fuzzier with each passing second and he doesn’t need the encouragement of your luscious hips to turn him into something he can’t explain away with a conversation. He’s teetering on the edge of it anyway.
“You’re familiar with my dick, of course, but when I’m rutting it’s different. It’s…” He trails off again and you reach down between your bodies, snapping the elastic waistband of his boxers. You smirk, the little temptress that you are, and he groans in defeat.
“Show me.”
Despite his brain telling him not to, he nods, happy to bend to your whims as long as you’re okay with what you see. He shifts where he sits, keeping you anchored to his lap with one hand and he uses the other to pull his boxers down around his thighs. You gasp when you notice the thickened base, larger than you’ve ever seen it and swollen.
“This is your knot?”
He nods, eyes fixed on your face as you inspect the newest part of his anatomy, to you anyway, and he’s relieved to see nothing but curiosity on your face. Your hand drifts back between your bodies and you squeeze the base of him, his knot almost too large for your hand to wrap around, and his hips buck into the touch. He pants, chest heaving with each breath, but you keep your grip intact.
“So let me make sure I have this right,” you start and he nods to indicate that he’s listening despite the overwhelming pleasure he’s feeling at your touch, lower lip tucked between his teeth. “You need to knot your mate to get through this and feel better?”
He nods again, happy that he doesn’t have to explain the gory details and that you were able to fill in the blanks on your own.
“Do you know who your mate is? Is it someone I need to go find for you?”
Shaking his head, his brows furrow.
“You are my mate. That’s the only explanation why my body is reacting like this to everything about you.”
His voice sounds strained, struggling to hold onto his humanity with each passing second. You mercifully let go of his knot, the relief on his face disappearing when you do, and you lean forward, just inches from his lips.
“Then fuck your mate and feel better, baby.”
Sealing your offer by pressing your lips against his, you’re shocked to find that they’re as hot as his hands, his body, his cheeks, but they feel like home to you and the sloppy sound of your tongues running against one another in open mouthed kisses fill your ears. His grip on your hip tightens and he does his best to remain gentle as he slides you off of his lap and places you on your back on the sofa below you. He pauses for a moment to glance over your face, to be absolutely certain that you still want this, and you smile at him.
Reaching for the button of your jeans, he helps you slide them off and tosses them across the room, your panties coming off with them and the rest of your clothes in short order. He wants to shred them, to see the pieces fall and flutter away from your beautiful body, but he holds himself back.
This is just the beginning of his rut, after all, and the two of you are bound to have a very interesting week ahead of you so he savors this moment, the first that he can be who he really is in front of someone he loves.
It’s freeing and terrifying but his cock is throbbing so painfully he can’t focus on anything else.
“Tell me if I’m hurting you, okay?”
You nod when he slots himself between your spread legs, his boxers and tank top gone. Your cunt pulses at the sight of him, walls clenching almost painfully around nothing as you look at the size of his knot and wonder how you’re meant to fit it inside of you, but he quiets your wandering mind by leaning down and pressing his chest to yours, kissing you sloppily.
“God I love you,” he mutters and you hum in agreement.
His mouth is wetter than it ever has been, a side effect of his current state, and saliva drips down both of your chins and drips into the valley between your breasts. You moan into his mouth and your hips cant and grind against his erection that slips into the cleft between your pussy lips and he feels himself slipping further and further into the basest of his needs, the warm slick seeping from your cunt a nectar he can no longer resist.
Kakashi’s fingers slide down your body, dragging through the pool of saliva between your breasts, down your torso, across your belly button, and finally down to your aching pussy. He makes himself useful quickly, one of his long digits replacing his cock and running through your soaked folds. You whine, hips bucking, and he increases the pressure of his finger as he slides it over your slippery clit.
“My pretty little mate is so eager for me, huh?”
Nodding dumbly, you spread your legs further hoping he’ll take the hint to get moving to where you need him the most. Your eyes dart from his face to where his finger slowly slides inside of you, warmth accommodating the digit with ease thanks to how soaked you are, and sweet relief washes over you. Tipping your head back, you softly moan beneath him while he works you open for him - he’ll need all the help he can get if you’re going to take his knot, and a second finger joins the first while his thumb massages your clit just the way you like.
“Oh baby, you feel so good.”
You nod and hum, hips grinding into every thrust of his fingers in and out of you, the sound of your own sloppy pussy making your breaths stutter. Who would have guessed you’d be so into finding out your boyfriend’s not so little secret?
His fingers continue to spread you open, shifting and grinding against the spot deep inside he knows drives you wild, and you know you’re about to cum for the first time tonight when his thumb grinds small circles directly into your sensitive clit. Your back arches off of the couch and you clench around his fingers, mumbling his name. His lips find yours, chests still pressed together, and you whimper into his mouth while your legs shake.
Withdrawing his fingers from inside of you, he holds them up and spreads them apart, breaking away from your lips long enough to let you look at the slick that webs between them when he does. You gasp, his fingers glistening with your arousal, and he smirks.
“Think you’re wet enough for me now. Gonna stuff you full of me, is that what you want?”
Nodding, you shiver, catching a glimpse of the hunger in his eyes. He’s the same man you love and have known for all this time but there’s a hunger you can’t wait to sate dancing in his eyes. Your cunt clenches again, finally ready for more after your orgasm, and he reaches between your bodies to position himself at your entrance.
The first inch isn’t anything you aren’t used to but you still gasp as he slides himself inside of you, your nails digging into his shoulder while his blunt head prods at your eager cunt, slipping inside with ease. He sinks deeper and deeper and you gasp breathlessly when he stops just short of the inflamed knot at the base of his cock.
“Can’t go all the way in, not yet,” he explains, grinding his hips and guiding them to make sure the head of his cock brushes against the same spot his fingers were just working. You are breathless, wordless, and completely overwhelmed, deciding to let him have his way with you however he needs. His hands travel the expanse of your waist, settling on either side of it, thumbs brushing the underside of each of your breasts that bounce slightly with each movement he makes.
He isn’t satisfied keeping his hands at your waist, though, and one travels back down your stomach and rests in the hair covering your mound. He loves the feeling of the hair between his fingers and he stretches his hand so that his thumb brushes against your clit, maintaining steady pressure on the bud while he grinds and thrusts in and out of you.
“Baby,” you coo from beneath him and he smirks, leaning forward enough to fold your legs up against your sides. Your thighs are pressed against your torso and your knees rest by your ears, the shift in position making you groan, shocked at how deep he is despite the whole of him not even being inside of you. “Need it all, Kakashi, please.”
How can he deny you when you ask so sweetly and he’s so close to cumming himself?
Shifting his own position so that he is practically mounting you, the front of his thighs pressed to the backs of yours. It feels like you can hardly breathe with how he has you folded but you don’t mind, succumbing to the mind numbing pleasure of the additional inches of him slowly sinking inside of you.
“Tell me if it hurts, okay?”
You nod, licking your lips, and he continues to push what remains of his cock inside of you. His hips grind and shift and you do your best to lift your own to meet him but he stills you with the hand spread over your pelvis, pressing directly on your clit while you stretch to accommodate his knot that slowly slips inside of you.
The stretch is delicious and your lashes flutter against your cheek, eyes rolling back into your skull. He thrusts shallowly, not wanting to release his knot from your warmth, but he gives in quickly and withdraws his knot. You gasp at the loss of the fullness but he’s quick to rectify his wrong, slipping his knot back into you in a quick motion that leaves you breathless.
“Full,” you spit out with a nod and he chuckles, dipping his head to kiss you again.
“Not as full as I’d like you to be but soon.”
You giggle and kiss him back, his grunts and pants against your lips making you whimper. He’s so sexy and you’re so full of him, your head spinning when his grunts increase in a way you know means that he’s close. His cock spasms inside of you and his thumb doubles down on its ceaseless pace on your clit, his knot swelling as he groans and fills you with his release. His knot remains swollen and keeps his cock in place, the warmth of his spend filling your pussy.
Reaching for his face, you grab both of his cheeks and kiss him, his thumb still rubbing idle circles on your clit until your hips jerk and the sensation becomes too much.
“I love you,” you return his earlier sentiment with a smile against his mouth. He smiles and kisses you back, the two of you afraid to part and technically unable with his engorged knot still inside of you.
“We have to stay like this for a little while,” he explains and you nod, eyes glossy and body limp. “Instincts say I have to make it take even if we both know it won’t.”
Smiling, you keep your grip on his face and kiss him again.
“Do you feel better?”
He nods, sighing contentedly.
“For now but we have a long week ahead of us and the full moon is on Friday.”
Dots connect in your head and you giggle, wrapping your legs around his waist while he gradually shifts and rests his head on your chest.
“Good thing we’ll be all alone in the woods then, huh?”
Kakashi chuckles and nods, kissing you between your breasts.
“My thoughts exactly.”

Sex Addict
theodore nott x reader
warnings: female reader, possessive theo, dom theo, obedience, talks of smut, dominance
***
As you lay in Theo’s bed exhausted from an hour and a half of fucking you decided enough was enough.
Ever since you discovered the muggles “birth control” and let your boyfriend cum inside you? He has’t been able to stop.
Your body was bruised- marks from where his hands grabbed you- all over your thighs, hips, arms, even your neck! Hickeys were also littered across your skin mixing in with the bruises. To top it off? A burning sensation in your core where Theo thrusted inside you.
Worn out but you lifted your head to look at him, “Theo?”
“Hmm..”
“I think you are a sex addict babe…” you started. Your partner finally put his full attention on you, scoffing at your statement, “I think it started when I got the birth control- and I think we should take a break from having sex-“
“-NO!” Theo yelled, his eyes bulging out of their sockets. He narrows his dead eyes, “I promise baby I won’t fuck you again- all day- just please-“
You shook your head intending to stay true to what your intuition was telling you. You truly did believe this. He hasn’t been able to keep his hands off you! You loved Theo with all your heart and Merlin- did you love how his dick feels inside you- but it was becoming almost repetitive.
“Just two weeks.” You reassured him, “then we can have mind blowing sex, i promise.”
****
The boys plus Pansy and yourself were sitting in the common room and you were looking for a seat. You would sit on Theo’s lap but you didn’t want to encourage his actions. Thats when Mattheo spoke up, “Why do you sit on your mans lap, Y/N?”
This made your partner do a dark chuckle as he raised his brow, “yeah? why don’t you, baby?”
I look at Theo and roll my eyes, the boys howl and do their “ooos”. They know Theo doesn’t like it when I give him attitude. Simple obedience is what he likes.
“Sit. on. my. lap.”
You are a good girl for Theo- usually. You do as your told. You obey, you listen, you sit, you stand- all for him but not today. Why not today? Because you felt completely in control! Who knew with holding sex was a power move? Who knew you liked that?
“Tell the boys why I won’t do that, Theo.” You say still standing not even worried about having a seat now.
Enzo laughed clearly enjoying this and Draco snickered and with a sneer on his face he poked at your man, “come on mate, what happened?”
Theo sat up straight, he mumbled “She thinks I’m a sex addict- Y/N won’t let me fuck her for two weeks.”
All the boys including Pansy let out the loudest of cackled Ive ever heard and hearing it? I smirked looking down at my boyfriend as if I had won a game we weren’t even playing. Pansy was the one to interrupt this exchange.
“Wait, this is important, why do you think he’s a sex addict?” Pansy exclaimed and when you raised both your brows Theo looked away embarrassed for maybe the first time in his life.
At least he knows what he has done.
“Because Its only Wednesday and Theo and I have fucked 5 or more times now.”
Pansy gasped an actual gasp, clearly taken aback. “For fucks sake, Theodore, let her have a break!”
****
Enjoying toying with your boyfriend so much, you and Pansy decided to play with him a little bit. In time for dinner about a weak into your break you came in with a short little mini school girl skirt, your buttons on your white collared shirt undone, some high rise stockings and your tie undone.
This? This was a big deal. Your first time defying your boyfriend was when you didn’t sit on his lap. But dressing like this? This would usually land you for 20 spankings and not being able to finish.
You decided you sit with Pansy across the table from him and when you and Pansy walked up all the boys went silent- looking at Theo- knowing you had crossed a line.
“Hi baby,” you toy with him. Never do you call HIM baby. You aren’t in charge. You are HIS baby. Theo shook his head angrily.
“Don’t you dare “baby” ME, you know the rules!” He shouted at you and usually this would mean that you would be submissive and start apologizing profusely, not today. You winked at him, this seemed to fuel him more, “go change. now.”
“no, I don’t think i will.”
Pansy interrupted, “she looks hot? No?”
Mattheo staring at you mumbled, “I’ll say.” Theo gave him a pointed look. Immediately understanding a line had been crossed.
Theo raised and this was where your heart sank, you knew you fucked up. He leaned over the table and slammed his fist down onto it making everyone flinch- and you the hardest. “I said, go. change. now. Or else I won’t wait for this week to be over- and when im done with you- you WILL be begging for a break.”
and that ladies, gentlemen, others, is when you got your cute little ass up and ran to your dorm to change.
Now you were regretting your little break because your panties were soaked.

Note
Might be really lame but can I request Klaus meeting Reader after she attends the funeral of a relative in Mystic Falls? Maybe he makes her smile or something cheesy like that. Just a little meet cute goodness would be lovely 💗
she's the giggle at a funeral | klaus mikaelson
author's note; me writing things that could be considered love at first sight? it's more likely than you think
warnings: tw death, death of a grandparent, it's not graphic but it's the overall theme, grieving, brief angst just bc of internal feelings, but then klaus shows up and makes it all better. corny cheesy gooey feelings <3 enjoy
Her grandmother prided herself on her intuition.
She’d grown up with the stories of witches and vampires and everything else that went bump in the night, and though she got older and dismissed most of the warnings she’d been told her whole life, she never forgot that her grandmother was someone who believed.
And everyone else had always believed in her grandma, too. She was sought out everywhere she went. People naturally flocked to her, as if they could tell she had all of the answers to life in the palms of her wrinkled hands, and she’d lost count of how many times she’d seen someone literally throw themselves at her grandma’s feet, begging for help, or answers, or god knows what.
Her grandma liked helping people. But more than anything, her grandma liked being right. She prided herself on her intuition, and how it never steered her wrong, and it never did any harm to anyone else, either.
When her grandma first moved to Mystic Falls, the entire family had been upset because of the distance it would put between them all. But she’d waved them all off, and said she had to. That one day it would make sense, and they would see why she had to come to this town and help them. It didn’t surprise her as a child, because she’d never doubted her grandma’s desire to help people. That was something that scary stories would never take away, no matter how old she got.
She didn’t make it out much to see her grandmother. A few times here or there, but between college and then life, it got harder to make the trip. It was never worth the cost of a flight, so she always drove, but that took up time she didn’t have these days. It never changed her relationship with her grandma, though, because the woman called nearly every night, and every night, she would say that it was about time she made the trip out there.
Her grandma always said she should come out there and stay for a little while. That it would be good to slow down and take in the scenery, and breathe fresh air. That she might even meet someone she likes, or something. Her grandmother was many things, but subtle was not one of them.
She never did get to go to Mystic Falls as much as she and her grandmother wanted, but she was here now.
It just never occurred to her that it would be because her grandmother was dead.
It’s been a long week. But, today in particular was grueling.
It’s not easy losing a loved one, anyone knows that. But she really hadn’t thought about what it would be like to lose her grandmother, who was not only a hero of a woman to their family, but to a community as a whole.
It didn’t make it any easier that she didn’t realize how loved her grandmother was in the tiny town she’d chosen to live out the rest of her days in. She didn’t realize how close knit Mystic Falls was, and how it would be such an ordeal to plan her grandmother’s funeral to the point she’d be dealing with the Mayor about it.
Mayor Carol Lockwood, as it turns out, is a very tenacious woman. She refused to do anything less than host the wake at her house, and pay for any and all accommodations necessary to put her grandmother to rest.
At first she was scared of imposing, after all, she hardly knew any of these people, and couldn’t fathom wanting to pay for someone’s funeral just because of how well-known they were, but Mayor Lockwood wouldn’t budge on it and she eventually caved.
All of that is what led her to the wake, held at the Lockwood’s mayoral manor. It was a beautiful house, on a nice, large piece of property that was currently filled with what looked, and felt, like the entire town.
Hours had passed since the whole thing started, and she doesn’t think she’s had a single moment to form a coherent thought outside of the compulsory acceptances of all of the condolences and well wishes directed at her. Her grandmother was old– that’s what had done it in the end.
She was old, and she had lived her life to the fullest extent, and she went peacefully. Yet somehow the feeling of every stranger’s apologies and somewhat condescending grief was making it out to be like she’d died in some tragic accident. Like it wasn’t entirely expected at this stage, and probably years ago from some people in their family.
She hasn’t really cried since she found out. Of course, the initial reaction was surprise, and a few tears were shed as she talked to the hospital employee about what all was going to happen next, but other than that she hadn’t really cried. Like she’d said– it wasn’t shocking considering her age, but it’s been such a whirlwind of people since she got to Mystic Falls that she hasn’t really realized that her grandmother was gone.
Between Mayor Lockwood’s almost overbearing welcome wagon, and the sheer amount of people that apparently knew her grandmother well enough to come to her wake, she hasn’t really been thinking about the fact that all of this is not for any other reason besides the fact that her grandma died.
The sudden thought has her inhaling sharply and she clasps her hands together in front of her, pinkies twisting into the black fabric of her dress. She clears her throat softly, offering a polite smile to the few people she’d been half-heartedly conversing with about nothing of importance.
“If you’ll excuse me for a minute,” She says, ducking her head down as they all nod her away, oblivious to the sudden line of tension straightening her shoulders out.
She makes her way through the house she’d grown quickly familiar with over the past week, planning things with Carol, and being invited to the so-called family dinners with just her and her son, who looked like he could care less about everything going on around him.
She makes it to the backside of the wrap-around porch and finds it mercifully empty, and with a quick glance to the large yard that surrounds the property, she finds that most everyone has migrated towards the shimmering pond, or the gazebo, enjoying the fall sun that’s no longer too hot to bear standing beneath, taking it all in before it becomes too cold to enjoy.
She practically throws herself down into one of the rocking chairs staged neatly on the porch with a small table in between the two of them, and drops her face into her hands, letting her tears fall silently.
It’s not overwhelming, necessarily, and there’s no ugly sobbing, but there’s tears. Plenty of them, too. She already knows her eyes will be sore tomorrow, and she’ll most likely have a pounding headache tomorrow from it all. She’s going to have to make a detour into one of the bathrooms before she shows her face again, because she doesn’t think she’s allowed to be so openly grieving at this point. She’s held it together all week, and suddenly, at the very end of it all, she loses it? She’s sure it would get her a few strange stares from the countless people here to send her grandmother off.
She’s spiraling quickly, down that horrible, embarrassing train of thought that is likely just making her cry harder when her privacy is interrupted.
She startles at the sound of a throat being cleared pointedly, but not impolitely, and she wipes at her face messily, trying to stop the flow of tears as she turns to face the source of the disruption.
Her breath stalls in her chest as she tilts her head back, craning her neck to meet the gaze of the man standing above her, hands tucked into the pockets of his suit pants. He’s dressed for the occasion, but as far as she can tell, he’s just another nameless face that’s come to pay respects to her grandma.
“Sorry,” She says, wincing at the hoarse quality of her voice. “I’m sorry.”
The man raises a brow, his blue eyes still peering down at her with a shockingly neutral shine to them. Not leaning too far in indifference, or the collective grief being passed around today.
“What are you apologizing for?”
She bites the end of her tongue, wringing her hands together. “Um– I don't know?” She grimaces at her response, tearing her eyes away from his, feeling entirely too seen.
The man takes the other chair beside her, his hand draped over the armrest, fingers nearly touching the small table between them. “I would’ve thought it was everyone else saying sorry to you today,” He said, an almost hesitant degree of amusement in his voice. “Not the other way around.”
She nods, resolutely embarrassed at the fact that this man has caught her right at her breaking point. “Yeah, uh, they were. But I was just… over it.” She huffs a quiet noise. “Is that horrible of me to say?”
“I can imagine it gets tiring dealing with all of these people,” He says, hand waving lazily at the people gathered all around the mansion. “Strangers telling you how much they’re going to miss someone.”
She sighs, tapping the tips of her fingers together in a mindless rhythm. “They mean well. I’ve always known the person my grandma was, and this– this community meant everything to her. It’s just odd to think that she was something important to everyone here, but I don’t know them at all. It makes it hard to believe that all of this is because she’s gone,” She shrugs slightly, at a loss for words. In her momentary silence she cringes, pinching the bridge of her nose. “I am so sorry for dumping that on you. You're probably one of the people coming to say sorry to me, and I just totally–”
“No, it’s alright,” He is quick to interrupt her, his hand reaching out to rest atop her arm, not squeezing but not at all unnoticeable. “I understand. I’ve never been one to publicly grieve. It’s certainly not easy when you have an entire town watching.”
She huffs out a wry laugh, lifting her gaze from where it had been stuck on his hand now gently caressing her arm, and meets his all-knowing look.
She’s sure she looks like a mess right now, tired and tear-streaked. Her makeup is probably smudged from her tears and her hasty attempt at cleaning herself up without a mirror present, but the longer she looks into his eyes, the farther any concerns about her appearance slip to the back of her mind.
Her small smile lingers on her face, and she fights the urge to let it get bigger. She could be wrong– she doesn’t know this man at all, of course, but the longer she looks at him, the more she begins to think that he’s looking at her like she’s beautiful. Like despite the grief she’s expressing, she’s still something he wants to look at, and he doesn’t even know her name.
And, for the first time since she got that phone call last week, she feels that taut line of tension loosen just enough for her to finally catch her breath.
Biting the inside of her cheek, she brings her other hand up to rest atop his, the move startling him slightly as if he hadn’t realized he was still offering her that bit of comfort. She doesn’t make any verbal note of it, because she doesn’t want to lose it, and he’s done the exact opposite of making her uncomfortable. He’s made her more comfortable in this town, in this house than she has been all week.
“What’s your name?” She asks, eyes wide and imploring as she looks at the beautiful, blue-eyed mystery man.
She’s not sure what he sees in her own eyes, but she hopes it’s as unintentionally endearing as whatever is in his.
“Klaus,” He breathes out, voice practically a whisper. “Klaus Mikaelson.”
Her brows twitch in a slight furrow as she processes his name, and she feels her smile grow larger despite herself. “Klaus,” She echoes softly, immediately liking the way it feels rolling off her tongue. She offers her name in return, and feels his fingers twitch where they rest trapped between her skin, a source of heat that’s making her feel something she can’t quite put her finger on.
“Klaus,” She says again, watching the way he responds to her, feeling her heart race as the blue rings of his eyes expand. “Would you do me the absolute biggest favor, and help me escape from this place?”
He chuckles, and his hand clamps down on her arm, the pads of his fingers pressing into the soft skin there. “Where do you want to go?”
She shrugs, an easygoing smile on her face. “I haven’t decided yet,”
He ducks his head in a dutiful nod, standing up carefully and pulling her with him. “We’ll figure it out on the way, then. After you?”
She intertwines their fingers and pulls them towards the stairs that lead down and away from the house, and spares a glance back at it, shaking her head wistfully. Her grandmother hadn’t been wrong about what this town could offer her, it seems. But then again, there was never any doubt in her mind about that to begin with.

Deleted Scene from Kal A3-Ch7
If you're keeping up with Kaleidoscope, you'll probably want to read the chapter itself before this. This scene is still canon to the story; I just felt it was unnecessary, repetitive, and spoiled a surprise. But still share-worthy. :3
Mangey was quite frankly terrified of the freaky-powerful robot for the first few days of their captivity. And that terror was still in effect when the robot made an unexpected midnight visit about a day after the spa trip. Mangey woke suddenly to find the robot’s shiny silhouette illuminated by devilish red eyes looming over him. His whole body fluffed up in alarm- why was he here? He only ever interacted with Tails, but the sleeping fox wasn’t the one Metal was gazing menacingly at. With nothing but negative interactions to go off of, Mangey could only fathom ill intent. He sank into his nest as he anticipated some sort of punishment, but then something strange happened.
The robot held something out to him. A… Gift? Mangey cautiously took the little rectangular piece of technology and looked it over. Metal surprised him further when he actually spoke to him. He told him it was an old cellphone. Not connected to the internet, but still full of useful apps. He showed him which icons corresponded to an app that taught you how to read and another called text-to-speech.
“You should be able to communicate.”
Metal ended the interaction with that brief statement, and then left abruptly.
Mangey just sat in shocked silence for a good while. Everything about the robot had such severity to it- from the way he moved, to the way he spoke, to his physically hard and pointy body. But this… It was oddly sweet. He was helping him in a way not even Tails could: giving him a voice that he had complete control over. Autonomy. Freedom. Though he was still cautious about the being that could knock him out on a whim, he couldn’t help but warm up to Metal a bit after that.
Learning to use the charger and earbuds that came with the phone came pretty intuitively after watching Nine on his laptop so much. And from then on, Mangey was able to truly join Nine and Tails in the “keeping busy” crew. He wasn’t doing anything vital to the mission like they were, but he was just as diligent with his work. Self-improvement was always important and being able to communicate freely would be good for the whole team. Once he overcame this obstacle, he was sure there was something he could do actively help the group once more. He desperately wanted to be useful again.
He tried to keep his chin up and stay positive, but it was hard. Ever since they left the lush forest of the Survival Zone, he went from being the most to least competent in a flash. So much so to the point of basically being a burden. He hadn’t felt so useless since he was a child. Back when he had no skills other than basic scavenging, completely reliant on others to survive. But he came a long way as he matured into adulthood. He learned how to hunt, how to use all the resources the jungle had to offer for his every need, how to provide for his family. He built their entire village himself and was a valued member of their community. He felt like a wizard; like he could conjure up anything he or his family desired if he put enough thought into it.
But up here in the stars… He didn’t know anything. But he was going to change that. And this little cellphone was going to be the key to his next big step.
Mangey was proud of his progress. Metal may have pointed out which apps to use, but he was essentially teaching himself all on his own. The others were much too busy to ask for help and didn’t want to bother them anyway. The rudimentary skills he learned from Tails teaching him how to use the communicator was foundation enough for him to figure things out. He felt very smart sitting next to Nine while he worked on his laptop. It made him feel like he was on the same level as him. Even if he knew deep down that it wasn’t true, it at least made him feel better. More competent. And soon, he’d get good enough at reading and typing to be able to have a real conversation with Nine. He was so excited.

PHEE AND PABU THEORY I swear it the last one for this week.
@feltpool just enlightened me and showed me many dots we should connect.
The artifact. It's the same shape as the tree on Pabu. I was told the island might be an old Jedi Temple or where Siths once resided. Apparently Pabu is an island on Scarif (a planet where a very important Impartial base will or is already being built. A base with Death Star plans)
What if this artifact does not come from any culture but it a key to control the island or whatever is underneath it. Phee surely paid a lot of money to get it. Shep said they had not had a sea surge in like 3 decades, the warning alarm came out too late. Tremors were normal, yes but what if someone with a help of something could control their strength.
I rewarched the scene and it clear to see Phee doesn't even go toward the Archium were the artifacts are supposed be storaged.
It's also weird the sea surge happened exactly the same day as the batch arrived along with Phee and the artifact.
If we assume that Pabu is an old or ancient Sith temple and was just activated, we can have the Empire, led by Siths, to come on the island, simply to check what actived it.
Is she working for the Empire? Does she see a opportunity to gain something from all of it? Don't know. It is unclear to me what Phee would do it for. FOR NOW.
But the more I think about her, and the more I look closer to her words and actions I think sometimes off. A friend who told me their theory about Phee, explained to me that the whole show is referring to certain movies. They see Phee being a reference to, at first Indiana Jones but now they think she might be a reference to Indiana's enemies who looks for acient treasures, artifacts etc. for pure gain and not for these objects' cultural significance. We have no idea what's inside that Archium. We're just expected to blindly trust her.
She avoids answering questions directly. Answers questions with more questions. Maybe it's just her habit or maybe not.
Phee and Cid "friendship" is also suspicious. When we meet Phee where does she sits? On Cids chair, with her legs on Cid's desk and Cid is standing before her like a loyal servant. It looked like she owned the place. Phee didn't return the cup back to Cid, she dropped it and didn't care if she catches it. It's almost like she's the boss on Ord Mantell, not Cid.
If my theory about Cid is true, the one who betrayed Cid and got the Empire on Ord Mantell might be Phee. The Empire might have their radar set on the batch after the whole Zello beast drama. They maybe put an award for those who catch them. There are many possibilities.
Also, her and Cowder or whatever his name was seemed to know each other for a while, he knew she always worked alone and he probably trade a lot of this with her. Why would he try to kill her for a tree statue? Either he wanted to kill her for some personal reason, maybe she's too dangerous and she needed to be finally dealt with OR because the artifact has much more value than we all know. High enough to kill for it.
She definitely found a way to manipulate the batchers. Hunter with Omega, Wrecker with food and relax, Tech...well self explanatory, Omega with fun and play. She was lucky Echo left cause he would be hardest to manipulate. If anything Echo's intuition is something to be feared off. Why did they always got on trouble? Cause they didn't listen to him.
I saw a post of someone saying that on the screenshot of Echo returning, the background looks like Pabu. We will have all whole squad in one place.
I was also thinking about Tech. I always saw the og batch with Hunter as the senses, Crosshair as eyes, Wrecker as strength, Tech as the brain. She had no problem with Hunter, Wrecker and Omega. But she surly has to pay more attention to the brain of the squad, the man who has a head on his shoulders.
I love theories so much. They're fun so please don't get worked up cause it goes against your feelings. No matter what the ending will be, I think we all should expect a big thing happening soon and I feel it's gonna be a big plot twist.
Do I wish for Phee to be the traitor? No I don't wish it but I wouldn't be angry if she was. I personally love villains, most of the time they have the best background story, better charisma and their scenes are much more enjoyable. Phee would be an awesome hero and an awesome villain. So would Cid.

okay very short mini rant time but -
not having emotions isn’t a thing. or at the very very least, it’s not a thing for soulless!sam. the writers hand-waved “soulless doesn’t feel” but that makes no sense and they’re wrong and it falls apart if we so much as poke it with a twig, let alone a proper stick.
emotions are information that act as input into decision-making. the very limited cases of human beings lacking the ability to feel fear or any other particular emotion, or lacking emotional input into their decisions? yeah, it’s not good. either wander into danger they can’t handle because there is no input into the decision-making process that says No, Don’t Do That, or at the extreme end, they can’t make decisions because they have no insight into what they might prefer or want or desire, or even not prefer or not want or not desire, so each minor choice is paralyzing because the part of the brain dedicated to do the choosing doesn’t exist.
if soulless really didn’t have emotions, he wouldn’t be doing much at all.
you can say “he’s making choices based on physiological stimulus” and that desire (like a desire for sex, or a desire to get a hunt completed and kill the monster) isn’t a feeling, but i promise you that it is, and that we can’t fully or truly disentangle physiology from emotion either.
in fact soulless!sam seems to have no issue whatsoever experiencing positive emotions like desire, enjoyment, contentment, satisfaction, pride, etc. He seems capable of vexation and irritation too. We don’t really see him angry in the same way sam would be, but he does sort of go into a violent rage and beat someone with his bare fists in a flashback, right? i promise that without emotion, exerting that kind of energy on a task just... wouldn’t happen. because you’re incapable of caring about the outcome of the task, no matter how ‘rational’ or ‘logical’ that outcome may seem (because what’s rational and logical depend on what we care about and what goals we have selected, which again, occurs in the context of having emotions to guide us toward what those desired end states might look like).
soulless!sam seems, as far as i can tell, to lack two things: 1) the ability to experience bonds with others, and 2) the ability to intuit or experience conscious insight into his own emotions.
on the first, his lack of connection to dean despite understanding he prefers to have him around, his willingness to kill bobby, his complete and utter lack of care for lisa and ben despite knowing on some level that he should care about them, or would if he were his usual self, even if only as an extension of who and what dean cares about. soulless just... doesn’t experience that deeply human need for social connection nor the automatic way it manifests nor any bonding toward others. some failure of oxytocin going on there (the soul is stored in the oxytocin receptor site?).
on the second, sam doesn’t know what he’s feeling when he hasn’t got a soul. he equates that with not really feeling anything, or at least that what we’re told as shorthand pretty quickly, because what he actually says when asked what he’s feeling is “i don’t know”. because - he doesn’t. but that doesn’t mean he’s not actually feeling anything, it means he has no conscious insight into it.
his feelings are just feelings to him, just information. they are understood in terms of how they impact his end state aims (i want to finish this hunt, i want to have sex with this hippie chick, i don’t want to put up with this fairy lady, i don’t want to suffer by having my soul put back in) but are not understood in and of themselves (i don’t know if i feel angry or sad or happy in response to setbacks or steps forward toward these desired ends. at most i know i experience a sense of satisfaction when my aims are accomplished, but this is understood mostly through checking that aim off the list and being able to direct my attention and resources toward new goals. i don’t know why i do this, i just do).
the lack of bonding means he doesn’t feel interpersonal guilt or remorse for hurt and harm he has caused, nor a sense of loss or grief based on his connections (or lack thereof) with others, nor an anticipatory sense of guilt, remorse, grief, or regret at pursuing interpersonal harm, so long as the harm is deemed as needed or even just helpful in furthering one of his desired end goals. this increases our perception that he doesn’t have feelings at all, when what he’s really missing are mostly a subset of social emotions, and that’s not even unique to soulless people! (and look, i don’t want to go down the rabbit hole of how fucked up i think it is that the writers, intentionally or not (but i suspect intentionally) more or less equated sam’s soullessness with some clinical features of psychopathy.)
anyway that’s more or less my rant. the concept of soullessness and how it manifests bothers the shit out of me, the explanations for it in-universe are misleading (though understandable in-universe even if i’d expect cas to provide a clearer explanation tbh), soulless!sam feels a lot, and i still haven’t managed to do a proper/full s6 rewatch as a result of my vexation.

Hey There, DurationPrince Here again... Hopefully not for the final time.
So last time you told me that there's a possibility that the player ID of mine was changed due to me Halting the [Infinite Rage]. So we did some digging and sure enough, that was the case. I had the Waste of Rage's ID, and he had mine. Thankfully it didn't cause any Freaky Friday sort of thing between us, but it did cause both of us to be not feeling like ourselves. And at the time we didn't know any way to fix that (First Session, Remember?). So I panicked, thought that now our plan is completely null and void if both me and the waste of rage are stuck like this, not feeling right at all. Combine that with all the weird timeline thing that I mentioned and something within me couldn't handle it anymore... I entered an Berserk Trigger.
You Know That One Episode of Steven Universe Future Where Steven Accidently Encloses him and all his friends in a giant bubble so that they wouldn't leave him? Yeah so that what happened to me, except I'm all alone. In A Red Bubble that is devoid of any sense of time. I guess so I wouldn't have to deal with all the time bullshit that happened because of my [Infinite Rage] Cancelation.
And I'm still in it right now. I don't know how much time it's been for me or the people outside. But I can't get rid of it, even with my powers.
Thankfully I still can write and read your blogs despite not having time around me, and found out about the fix for the player ID of removing and putting back up the sprite pendant. but it didn't work either. I guess it's either because of me being stuck in a timeless bubble, The Waste of Rage probably having my ID and therefore I can't or Both.
So I'm now stuck here, still with a misplaced player ID with only two options: Either I Kill This Body with my Swordkind and hope that will both cancel this bubble and have enough time for someone to kiss me so I will go to my Dreamself... or somehow manage to cancel this bubble.
So should I do the first thing or the second? and if it's the second then how?
P.S: My whispering still keeps talking to me and it annoys the hell out of me.
I hate to be the one to break this to you, but the "seppuku and have someone revive the dreamself" option is not an option. Not because I'm opposed to it, I'm almost certain your (temporary) death would disable the ability, and if your players have someone positioned near the body (which they will if they're smart) they're in position to corpsesmooch it. The complication here is that the game disables suicide. Some Carapacians with a keyboard are going to yell at you for trying it and you won't be able to do it. You might starve to death in there, or suffocate if it doesn't let in air, but you will be able to do nothing by your hand (and setting off a bomb counts as "by your hand", in case you try to act smart).
As for the second option, this is a Berserk Trigger for a Prince of Time, so I doubt this is a "will last forever" type ability. If you're experiencing no sense of time, I think I might know what's going on. Time Players intuitively can tell the passage of time, so you either exist outside of time, or the bubble stops all time within it. Check your computer's clock. If it reads something like "--:--:-- XM", you exist outside of time, it it's an actual clock and the seconds aren't passing by (so maybe "1:35:27 PM" and it's stuck like that), you're in stopped time.
If I might be even bolder, I imagine this "bubble" is an extension of your own abilities. You make processes happen faster, but not in an overtly supernatural fashion, things just "finish up" quicker because the extraneous events that "stall it out" are removed. Well I'm afraid that it is now overtly supernatural in nature. If you can't contact your players, I imagine it's because this bubble only exists for a second or two, while you're experiencing the "actual time" that's been truncated for everyone else. As for why it's trapping you here... You said you were tired of dealing with the Time Bullshit that happened when you cancelled [Infinite Rage], so it's possible that this manifestation of your powers was in response to extreme emotional turmoil, and it attempting to "resolve" the stress you've been feeling. I imagine a psy-buff exists that could have solved this, and in fact might actually be a lot better by "fast-forwarding" through your hang-ups so you arrive instantly at the mental state you need, but you Berserk Triggered, so here you are.
So if you want to get out of the Time Bubble, there are a few psychological exercises and points you might want to go over with yourself. Think of this Time Bubble as an egg, and you will emerge like a phoenix.
How can I feel like myself? Ignore game mechanics, reinforce what makes you you.
Those timelines where I died (or it feels like I died in them), what do they mean and what do I do? If you think they're a danger because a Berserk Triggered Waste of Rage might hijack the time machine and travel backwards, erase the timelines. If you think they're lands of corpses cluttering up the timestream, erase the timelines. If they're of no consequence, erase them from your mind. Don't let them be a distraction in any case, resolve what to do with them.
You can think of how to solve the Player ID issue, but no matter what plan of action you come up with, you have to steel in your mind the will to get it over with, even if it means "ignoring it until relevant".
I have a *really good feeling* about this line of advice. You have all the time in the world, so feel free to give these issues as much mind as you want. Just make sure you don't dither with them. Action is needed.

Hi Lumen,
Hope you are doing okay. I just wanted to share this here, I guess I needed to vent and write this down to show myself some sort of appreciation and to comfort myself in this choice so I thought I would share it since I saw other anons writing their progress down, hope you don’t mind. I have dropped that guy whom I was talking to since November, we tried to meet up multiple times but he always put the blame on me that we never could meet. We once tried to meet up and made plans to meet BUT the day before he went back to his hometown without any notice because he was not sure whether I still wanted to meet and didn’t even bother to make new plans. After this I decided to block him because it was literally the last drop. he made me feel confused all the time, I always felt so stressed and I remember you saying in one of your posts that a guy that makes you feel stressed and confused = not a man in his masculine energy and not meant for me. and also he tried to initiate physical and sexual conversations way to too fast which made me feel uncomfortable. I also think he love bombed me in the beginning.
i think reading your posts had helped me so much and I wanted to thank you for your posts. I really think you help a lot of young women with your advice 🌹
I know he was not worth my time and energy that’s why I cut things off with him but deep down I feel that guilt and “what ifs” but I know deep down I made the right choice and I can’t wait to elevate more in life.
Hi darling,
Thanks for sharing your journey and progress! I'm proud of you for cutting him off and moving on. Just from what you've mentioned there's already a list of red flags. I can confirm you did the right thing, but more important than that is you listening to your intuition, and honoring it! Realizing that you've known the answer all along. That's a brave thing and not easy to do especially in the beginning. And release the guilt darling. No healthy secure man that is for you will make you feel this way, or treat you like this in the beginning. All those red flags only multiply further in the relationship. You did right in moving on.
Also, posts like this make me happy to see how more and more ladies are awakening to their true worth and standing up for themselves 🥺 Moreso that my advice is helping someone out there 🤍
I like to think of my blog as an online diary dedicated to my younger self, sharing advice and experiences I wish others would have told me, so I didn't have to learn the hard way.
A lot of us girls didn't grow up with an older sister or aunt or female figure of some kind that initiates us into this experience of modern womanhood and how to honour ourselves and have better standards and boundaries. Or how to cultivate healthy friendships and sisterhood! Instead we're only programmed by society to view other women as competition and men as "the prize". To be people-pleasing and self-sacrificing to the point where we remove our "selves" from the equation of our lives altogether, centering everything around a man, family, pleasing our parents etc.
It's important to realize the #1 priority should always be yourself. You're the heroine of this story. The sooner you realize and live this truth, the sooner you can fully enjoy life, instead of being a secondary character in your own story.
Best wishes 🫶

12. the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them
Mu Qing! Mu Qing is great!
He's interestingly complex, and I love all his mixed feelings and things like the inferiority complex from being a servant and his difficulty expressing emotions other than angry sarcasm and the whole set of double standards that swirl around him. I love him.
I think the reason a lot of people dislike him is the way he goes against protagonist centred morality? He often prioritises himself over Xie Lian, but... Xie Lian often prioritises himself over Mu Qing, and people aren't so bothered by it because Doylistically he's the protagonist and Watsonianly he is the God Pleasing Crown Prince and... Mu Qing holds up a lens to that. One of those big Fresnell ones that set everything on fire.
I love him so much.
16. you can’t understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)
Hmm, I can't think of anything off the top of my head? All the ones I can think of are ones I know why people like, and I'm trying not to think of polar bears, but it's not working.
I guess the one that tends to make me head tilt like a confused puppy are the people who whump characters... because they don't like them. I realise "I love them! Let's hurt them!" is in some ways less intuitive, but like. I can get liking a character so much you want to put them through a ringer and then give them catharsis. I do that! I do not understand disliking a character, and then... putting in the effort to spend several thousand words in their head writing about them suffering. It's just. So much effort focusing on a character you don't like? That you could instead be spending on a character you do like?
25. common fandom complaint that you’re sick of hearing
"Eating your vegetables."
So, for context, there's a conversation in the femslash fandom that tends to go:
A: A lot of people don't like femslash because they are being sexist, and they should really just get over it, and make some femslash themselves.
B: ...do we want people who don't actually want to write femslash writing it as, like, feminist praxis?
But this tends to devolve into someone finding some mediocre femslash, and claiming the author only wrote it so they could prove they were "eating their vegetables." And I haaaaaaaate it so much. Because. Like. It sucks to make something, and then get told it's so bad the only reason people think you would make it is for social justice points, and not because you yourself like it?
I haaaaaaaaaaaate it.

What Would Make You Happy?

Pile l:
What Would Make You Happy? Tarot: 6 of Wands (reversed), 10 of Swords, The Hanged Man, King of Wands, 8 of Wands, 7 of Cups (reversed)
Two words: Life Purpose & Rapid Movement. You want life to get to the good part pile l. Some of you could be struggling with your circumstances and feel that you don't have any other options in life because you either lack money, a support system, or you just can't see anything past your limiting belief system not knowing that the world is your oyster. You want life to literally stand at the side of the road like a cartoon character holding up signs of what path, direction, or what should happen next so you can help progress and bring in more of what you want in your life because you are tired of being in the same place. You are tired of feeling defeated like nothing you do is helping your situation. I Need a Hero (Shrek 2 Version) is playing in my head. Overall you just want to begin living your life in your purpose if not purpose you want to feel as if you are meant something on this earth like you aren't just here taking up space. You want to live a passionate and fulfilling life where you don't feel drained, anxious, unstable, or limited in the things you want to do, and even to some you want to be of service to those around you/community.
Extra Messages: Moonology Manifestation Oracle Deck Oracle: Step into Your Power & Work Through Your Feelings
"Achieving anything is nearly always part inspiration and part hard work. Believe that you can create whatever you want. Be You! Take action and be smart but also bold."
Some of you just need to ask for help. Your guides have been trying to communicate with you but you either are a) passing everything off as a coincidence or not believing that the path being shown to you is for you because you lack confidence or b) You need to be more grounded and meditate, do some yoga, journaling, whatever it is that you do to ask your guides, ancestors, the universe for help. That may even look like prayer for some of you.
Pile ll
What Would Make You Happy? Tarot: Queen of Wands (reversed), Ace of Cups (Upright), 7 of Cups / 4 of Swords / 5 of Wands (All reversed)
One Word: Fulfillment. You may have been drawn to pile l, pile ll. A Boondocks quote came to me "Huey: Grandad, what do you do when you can't do nothing and there's nothing you can do. Grandad: You do what you can. " Like pile l you are tired of life trying to knock you down every chance you get but for a lot of you, this is more of a mental thing than life doing anything. Most of you may feel that you aren't good enough, there is someone better than you, believing in imposter syndrome, or even anxiety. Not knowing that all you need is a change in your mental health. Stop believing in the voices in your head, the nay-sayers that told you once 10 years ago you would never amount to anything or even the results you see from lack of clients or progress. You are your own enemy, only you can put a stop to your madness and begin believing that you can achieve greatness and the fulfillment you want out of your life. Your thoughts reflect your reality. If you feel you aren't good enough...why should others believe you are too? If you believe your art, craft, or services are crap...life is going to prove to you with no sales, clients, etc because you believe it is true.
Extra Messages: Moonology Manifestation Oracle Deck Oracle: Open to Change, Take A Reality Check, Lighten Up
Be open to having a reality shift pile ll. What is the worst thing that could happen if you believe in yourself? Seriously what bad thing could happen if you decided to be your own cheerleader and believe you are worth more than what yourself and others have to say to you? Bet on it - High School Musical (Song link: http://tinyurl.com/262djrbw ) is playing in my head.
"I'm not gonna stop, that's who I am I'll give it all I got, that is my plan Will I find what I lost? You know you can Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (Bet on me) I wanna make it right, that is the way To turn my life around, today is the day Am I the type of guy who means what I say? Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it
The answers are all inside of me All I gotta do is believe"
Pile lll:
What Would Make You Happy? Tarot: 9 of Swords (Upright), Knight of Swords, 7 of Cups/ 7 of Pentacles / 6 of Cups (All reversed)
One Word: Self Care. You have a lot of mental and emotional turmoil going on inside of you, pile lll. For most of you, this is limiting beliefs, anxiety, and depression. But overall I am sensing that you just want to feel not only appreciated but to not feel the burdens of everyday life on your shoulders. You may be the type who takes on way too much even the struggles and worries of other people. You need to release those worries and struggles. They are not yours to carry, if people around you don't care enough to do something for themselves why should you?? That is not yours to worry about. I know you are probably thinking well someone has to care...yea..but that person can't be you pile ll. You are literally tearing yourself down for other people just for them to what....get back with their toxic ex, overspend their budget asking you for money, etc etc..cut the cord. You need to worry and focus on yourself. You need you more, now than ever. Pamper yourself pile lll. Do a DIY spa day if you are short on money. Make a face mask or buy those $5 ones at the store, soak your feet in some Epsom salt, and play your favorite childhood movies. Relax. Maybe even get a massage if you have that kind of money. If you can turn off your phone for a weekend and focus on nobody but yourself. Ask yourself what do you want to do?
Extra Messages: Tarot: Judgement, Ace of Wands / The Chariot (reversed), Strength, 4 of Cups.
(Short Message for a very few) What you want is yours for the taking. All you have to do is ask....but you need to be sure what you want you have the strength for. Whatever this is for you pile lll just know that you are the only person in the driver's seat. It's time for you to decide what you want, where you want it, and when can you start. It's up to you to answer the call.
I hope this reading was insightful and gave some clarity or even guidance. Thanks to everyone who likes, reblogs my posts, and joins my Patreon. I always appreciate you <3.
Until Next time stay blessed and be safe.
The next pick acord reading will be for my Cosmic Stargazers on Patreon...not sure when it will be up but most likely before Monday or Tuesday.

Death Note, meet Supernatural- CHAPTER 5
Relationships: L (Death Note)/Reader, L (Death Note)/Original Female Character(s)
Summary: What if Death Note existed in a world with Winchesters in it? Would L finally have the evidence he needs to prove Light is Kira? How will L fare in a world where monsters are real and not every case is solvable by him? Lucky for him, there's a hunter here to work side-by-side with him.
Chapter Summary: Anne starts to consider the possibility of Light and Misa being Kiras. Some supernatural creatures are ruled out. CHAPTER 4
Chapter 5: No Ghosts or Demons
It’s pin-drop silence in the room while I think about everything L’s told me. I feel his eyes on me again, probably assessing my reaction. The guy seems pretty sure that Light is Kira. And a lot of evidence has also pointed to it but Light always got off the hook at the last minute. Is he Kira? The guy looks human. He touched the silverware earlier so not a shape-shifter or a werewolf. Did the guy make a demon deal then? Get the power to rid the world of criminals? But how did he lose it if someone else has the same power now? Did he get scared and give it up? Nah, the guy should be smart enough to realize that wouldn’t save him from hellhounds. So what was it? Where is the power coming from? And what about Misa? The girl’s certainly crazy enough to do anything. But would she do this? And why? Add it to the to-do.
Anne’s Kira To-do
Learn basic Japanese
Go to Moon’s bar
Research Light
Find the motive for Misa being Kira
Find how the Kira power works
Find the source of the power
“Are you taking questions now, your supreme bossiness?”
At L’s nod, I start. “Do you have a strong intuition, evidence notwithstanding, that Light and Misa are- or were- the Kiras?”
After a pause, there’s another nod. “Yes, I do.”
“Has at any point during the investigation something strange happened? Except your suspects suddenly going from silent soldiers to chatty Cathys? Anything strange or unusual.”
“Yes, one thing. A person has been killing criminals worldwide by knowing just their names and faces, sometimes faces only. That’s very unusual.”
“Ha ha. Real comedian, you.
In the last year, have any of you guys felt strange? Like someone’s watching you, you get cold suddenly somewhere, or you smell something strange- like sulfur or ozone, or lights flickers on and off?”
Everyone looks confused and they all shake their heads “no” in unison. So no ghosts or demonic possession.
“What about someone with black, or red, or yellow- or any sort of unusual eyes?”
Matsui looks bewildered. “What? How is any of that relevant?”
“Well, there is a serial killer that roams around with weird eye contacts to look unique. You seen someone?”
“Um, interesting. But no.”
Huh, nothing here. Looks like I’ll be starting from zero. Hopefully, local hunters will have something useful to share.
“Alright Ryuzaki, I want access to all files including photos and footage on my laptop so I can comb through everything. I’ll bring it over from my car downstairs.”
“No, you can’t have these files on your personal device. I’d prefer it if you view them on my screen. If it’s really important, I’ll give you a secure laptop which cannot leave this building. You will not be able to use the internet on it or make any transfers.”
“Fine, I’ll just use my personal laptop for surfing the web. Now that you know I’m on your side, can you call Watari and tell him to return my stuff?”
“You mean your guns and knives?”
“I mean my guns and knives and my phone. Self-defense is important for those of us who do real work in the field, you know?”
L opens his mouth to make a retort when Light jumps up, “I’ll call Watari now.”
The guy seems alright; he must be a really good actor to be Kira and put on this show.
“So the head office said I’d be living with you guys? I hope there’s a fancy ass room with a king-sized bed and a joined giant bath booked for me.”
“We can put you on Misa-Misa’s floor, she’d really like that”, offers Matsui.
Ryuzaki is quick to agree angelically just as I shout, “No, that’s fine!”
I hastily add, “Misa is great, but I want her and Light to have privacy. I insist.”
Matsui blushes at the implication, “O-oh, that’s thoughtful.”
Watari walks in with a bag and I see all my stuff inside. I quickly unlock my phone and there it is. As usual, my shoulders drop with relief. L’s noticed my reaction and is looking curiously at my phone. I shove it in my pocket and ask Watari to show me my room before there are any questions.
I pause at the door to shout, “Get the laptop ready latest by tomorrow morning, Ryuzaki. Won’t tolerate any delays”, and leave without hearing his reply.
—-----------------------------------------------------
The room Watari showed me was less of a room and more of a big 1 BHK. After giving me a map of the building and permission to call him whenever I needed anything, he left me alone. Unable to resist the call of the bed, I collapsed on top of it. There were so many things to work on here and no one to help. Working with partners was how I operated for years and operating solo made me feel… handicapped. Kira was no joke and finding him while protecting the team was going to burn me out. It was not like I had a savior waiting in the wings. No, he was probably enjoying lazy days with his newfound love. I admit he deserves peace, he’s had a hard life. Still, it hurt that I wasn’t reason enough to stay.
Not wanting to continue that line of thought, I go out to bring stuff from my car. Watari’s already added me to the system so I can come and go as I please. It’s strange, the whole building gives an eerie feel. So big and empty. Can’t help but compare it to abandoned asylums haunted by spirits except this place is brand new. Looks like Japan’s Big Brother is rich too.
Getting in the car, I take it to the building’s garage. Majority of the weapons will stay in the car while I take some upstairs. I’ll have to be smart about placing them because L will be guaranteed to monitor me for a few days. Grabbing my duffles, I head back upstairs in the elevator wanting nothing more than food and sleep. Everything else can wait until tomorrow.
The elevator stops before my floor and a pale hand pulls me out. Before I twist it, the offender registers and I’m being dragged toward the briefing room. I’m in for it now.
“There you are, Anne. I’ve convinced everyone to have dinner in the briefing room now and we’re all just waiting for you. I’d rather it just be 2 of us but Matsui seemed to want to know you too so I thought if you don’t have a boyfriend, you can probably date him but he’s always so nervous so I organized this group dinner for his benefit. You’ll fall in love with him, just you see.”
My last thought before she opens the doors is a desperate wish.
Please let her be Kira so I can kill her.
A/N:
Hey guys, next chapter is L and Anne interactions and a little bit of Anne's backstory.
If you enjoyed this one, don't forget to❣️, comment and reblog!

This is always so goddamn wild to me too because IRL… Laios is the one with privilege
I’m “autism is something only cis boys have girls are just difficult” old, I have many autistic friends across varying genders
The. Genuine speechlessness. That descends. When one of our autistic boys just says “right I’m done with people now so I’m leaving, see y’all at home”.
Little girls can’t get away with that behaviour
If you had the “girl” sticker put on you, you got a very specific kind of socialisation that told you to be considerate, polite, quiet, respectful, that you must consider the needs of everyone else around you before your own
And sure, Laios did not have an easy home life, he butted heads with his father constantly and has not been accepted because he doesn’t filter who he is
What, do people think the constant layers of filtering that Kabru, Toshiro, and Falin do are all just for fun? That it’s a cute and silly game they’re playing?
Y’all never caught yourself watering yourself down to be “acceptable” and realised how tiring that is?
Laios is (mostly) loud and proud and himself, and this has had negative consequences that he did not deserve! It’s what we should all get to be! He’s never intentionally hurt anyone and he deserves to be respected and accepted!
But getting to be that is a form of privilege, because it means you haven’t been successfully shoved into the box of other peoples’ expectations and limitations
Falin’s not quieter and more compliant because she’s less of a nasty little freak, or because “girls are naturally more nurturing” crap
She’s quieter and more compliant because kids can pick up on and internalise expectations and acceptable behaviour before they can string a sentence together
You can tell because when they’re together, she acts a lot like Laios
She’s bouncy and loud and exuberant about exactly the same things! They have the same special interest in monsters!
Falin is more socially acceptable because she has been forced to develop a mask that Laios genuinely cannot imitate, and it only looks easier for her now because she knows how to shear the bits off herself that don’t fit.
(Shuro and Kabru are definitely also more on the “I shall Analyse The Rules of successful human interactions and Master Them” side of the ‘tisms but I’m not convinced Falin is - she is however on the much more intuitive flavour of the spectrum than Laios, who is also rule oriented
This is why Marcille’s magic works better for Laios than Falin’s: Falin’s gnome magic is highly empathic and involves asking the spirits nicely
Marcille’s elf magic is about knowing exactly the conditions and measures and commanding they be met precisely
Also evident in the way they tackle problems:
Laios shuts down when he doesn’t understand the rules governing the winged lion
Falin rushes in face first fully intending to fake it til she makes it. This is why she was eaten by a dragon)
Laios is still obnoxiously himself, despite facing heavy social consequences (Shuro was his First Ever Friend) because the social consequences weren’t enough to make him scared of being himself
And he knows that. It’s gonna come up while they’re riding the trolley bus and talking about Falin. He feels guilty because he left her alone… and she’s so compliant and won’t ever do the same to him
It honestly bothers me the way people talk about Laios and Falin's autism.
Its like, they wanna act like the way they're treated differently is some "pretty privilege" and because she's a girl, but they're actually just ignoring how girls are socialized to be more socially aware, and bottle all of their "weirdness" in.
Falin doesn't have any privilege over Laios for being a cute girl or whatever. She was raised to have to acknowledge how everyone feels about her at all times, she was literally considering a joyless marriage so people wouldn't see her as "weird". post-canon Falin looks so much happier because she is now allowed to do whatever she wants, dress however she wants and go wherever she wants.
You can literally see what im talking about in the way the genderbend short shows how a female Laios would be forced to start a family and looks completely devoid of joy.
#dungeon meshi#dungeon meshi spoilers#delicious in dungeon#delicious in dungeon spoilers#falin touden#laios touden#autism#autism comes in many flavours#including ‘so heavily masked you’d never guess’#learning that mask is not a privilege
