#made me feel some typa way. not sure what i feel exactly but i am feeling about it

[iliveinprocrasti-nationn]

one of the top 10 experiences of all time that i will think about forever was when i was on my college’s yik yak having an argument with someone about omega rights (bc multiple people just decided to post like we were in the omegaverse) and a person responded to me saying “go back to your nest”

Pairing: Korra x Reader

Warnings: none for part one

✧ Childhood best friend typa deal (but it shall evolve muhahaha)

“Naga, what am I going to do?” You asked helplessly, looking deep into her polar bear dog eyes for any semblance of guidance or wisdom. Instead you saw a profound blackness that seemed devoid of thought. As she gave you a happy lick on the cheek you sighed and gave her a pat, moving on to the next confidant you had chosen.

“Okay. No help from you today. How about you Oogi?”

Oogi gave you the very telling response of the slow blink of his eyes.

“Very insightful Oogi, but not exactly what I need.” You now turned to the fire ferret, hoping the look in your eyes would indicate your need of a companion. “Pabu, please! Give me anything. Our other friends don’t want to listen today.” His ears perked up in attention as he shuffled his way over before taking a seat in front of you.

“I knew you would help!” You exclaimed, giving him soft scratch behind his ear. “Here’s the issue,” You began, taking a seat in front of him. “You know Korra? She’s the avatar, it’s kind of a big deal. Anyways. She’s leaving soon and if she leaves now I might never get the chance to tell her again!”

While your statement was a bit dramatic, it did hold a semblance of truth. You were one of the new air benders, and a pretty good one at that. After a long and arduous station in a recovering Earth kingdom city you had returned to Air Temple Island for a bit. You returned to Air Temple Island at an opportune time it seemed given that the Avatar and her friends were all gathering.

“Now why is that a problem you might ask, and what do you have to tell her you also might ask.” You said, getting up to pace around the fire ferret. “One, I think she’s really amazing.” At your words Pabu seemed to nod. “Two, uh.” You started, although your face began to grow hot. “I’ve known her a long time, we basically grew up together. It took me a while to realize it but whenever I was around her things felt different.”

Your father was one of the men Tenzin had entrusted to keep Korra safe as she mastered the elements, and he was quite proud of it. You were one of the only friends Korra had growing up besides Naga, and despite annoying you occasionally she was still your favorite of them all.

You remembered sparring with her the most, you were a non-bender at the time and prided yourself in being able to keep up with the avatar in combat. You always begged her not to go easy on you and for the most part she didn’t, she wasn’t that type of person. She was the type of person to get hyper-invested in the penguin sledding race you were having and either become extremely giddy when she won or excessively annoyed and challenge you again when she lost, and you loved that.

There’s that word again, love. You gulped as you looked towards Pabu with soft eyes. “When she left the Southern Water Tribe it hurt. A lot. That’s not her fault, it would have hurt anyways and it was best for her to leave. I just can’t help but wonder what would have happened if I had went with her.”

The day that Korra passed her fire bending exam and was permitted to begin training in air bending was momentous for the both of you.

“(Y/N)! I get to start my air bending training! Tenzin’s coming today.” She exclaimed as she slammed the door open to your uncle’s steamed dumpling shop. The power of her slam and the door against the wall caused the dumplings to fly right off of the old man in the shop’s plate.

“Oh. Sorry about that.” She said as she awkwardly scratched the back of her head and gave her signature avatar slanted smile.

“You’re the Avatar!” He said in surprise, only slightly disappointed by the lack of dumplings in front of him.

“Congratulations!” You ran towards her from behind the counter engulfing her in a big hug. She hugged back passionately, gripping you as tightly as she could. You began to get lost in her presence, her scent, the feeling of her frame against yours. Blush began to spread across your face as you felt her firm muscles against you, but also the softness of her chest.

You both pulled back slightly, looking each other in the eyes. Your heart felt as if it were going to burst out of your chest and you wondered if she felt it too. There was something so sweet about her face, about the way she looked at you with her blue eyes. It made your chest feel tight.

“How did you even get here? You shouldn’t be sneaking out so much!” You whispered with a smile, your love struck eyes still holding her gaze.

Despite your words you knew fairly well that she could handle the guards as you thought back to the time she had gotten in trouble for fighting a group of them – and winning might you add – although she would never tell you why.

“Don’t worry about that.” She said, pausing before looking you over. Embarrassed you averted your gaze to look downwards. “You’re my best friend. I love you, you know that right? I always will.”

There it went. You were pretty sure you watched your heart soar out of your chest and into the heavens. Instead of responding you just hugged her harder, nuzzling yourself in the crook of her neck.

I could stay here forever. You thought to yourself, although it seemed fate had other plans

“Uh. Not to interrupt, but could I get the check?” The old man asked as he looked at the two of you with questioning eyes.

“Yes, yes. Of course, I’m sorry! I’ll throw some extra dumplings in for the road.”

After that day, well she was pretty much gone. You desperately wanted to go with her but you had responsibilities in the water tribe. She had them elsewhere, it pained you but it seemed like fate just didn’t want the two of you together.  You saw her once a year later while visiting your aunt in Republic City, before her battle against Vaatu. She was with someone who was seemingly her boyfriend and a very pretty woman who appeared to be her friend. 

In that moment your heart froze wondering what to do. You hadn’t spoken to her in so long and didn’t want to intrude but at the same time the Korra that you knew would have been happy if you did. 

The fire nation boy leaned closer to her and grabbed her hand as they walked. You looked at Korra and the two people surrounding her, they were definitely cooler than you. Your heart fell as you watched them at the table across from you and your aunt in the park, they seemed to be getting ready to go.

Maybe she’d be embarrassed to see me with her new friends. You thought, still contemplating whether you were going to say something. Then she looked up, Korra had locked eyes with you. The same warm eyes that looked at you as she told you she loved you, although now she was looking at you with confusion splayed across her face. 

Her friends were already up and about to leave. When she noticed you were looking back she quickly got up to join them as well, her boyfriend giving her a quick kiss on the cheek. You saw her mouth move to tell him something and then both their eyes were on you again while attempting to be indiscreet. Keyword being attempted. You noticed and it haunted you for the longest time, maybe she really was embarrassed to see you in public.

“Anyways, the next time I saw her was here. I haven’t said anything yet and I don’t think she’s seen me but I need to air my grievances Pabu.” The ferret moved to nuzzle up besides you and you thanked him by petting him softly. “Also, I think the biggest problem is. I still have feeling for her.”

“You like Korra!?” You jumped in surprise, looking at Pabu with your mouth agape before realizing it was not the fire ferret that spoke but instead a wide-eyed earth bender. Gasping you stumbled backwards as you instinctively air bended at Bolin. His eyes widened as the gust of air had thrust him backwards causing him to land on his behind. Feeling bad you rushed over, inspecting him as he rubbed the back of his head.

“You shouldn’t spy on people like that!”

“(Y/N)! No, no, no, no! It wasn’t anything like that I swear! I was just looking for Pabu and then I heard you speaking and-” He prattled on. You looked at him and sighed knowing he wouldn’t be the type of person to do something like that. The two of you had gotten to know each other very well when your paths had collided in the Earth Kingdom.

“Just don’t tell anyone, okay?” You asked hesitantly, scanning the man who now held a deep deep secret of yours.

“Don’t worry (Y/N), my lips are sealed.” He said as he made a motion of zipping up his mouth with his hands. For some reason you didn’t fully trust him. “Some call me Bolin, the master of keeping secrets.” He continued.

“Yeah, yeah. I get it, just please Bolin promise me.” His eyes softened as he heard your voice waver.

“I promise. Plus, this might be the best accident to ever happen to you.” Your eyebrows shot up at his response.

“How so?”

“Because you now have the best wing-man and wing-ferret on your case, and I’ve got a plan.”

You watched as Bolin smiled excitedly, ready to tell you his plan. You knew it might not be the wisest to go with it but as you thought of Korra you sighed. What other option did you have?

“Okay. I’m in.”

[whatthefuuuuuuccckkkk]

okay this is my last post I know I'm being very annoying and I hate to clog the tag but I just have to scream into the void for a while if you disagree or you're annoyed with me please just scroll past this rant thank you

- the hitman plot. god. we all hate that shit. what I realllllly hate is how long and drawn out it is. should've been one episode tops, like when dean tried it. I want to say, that obviously it's not gonna work bcz it would be stupid to kill off the character carrying the entire show, but at this point maybe they are gonna kill him off??? idfk. maybe it's a punishment for all the people (everyone) who like him. truthfully the whole "murder is our only way out of this" attitude is disappointing and seemingly out of character for all of the girls. Boomer attacked annie and they let him fuckin live. They knew he was a fuckin rapist piece of shit, and a regular piece of shit too, but couldn't kill someone. But apparently killing someone beth, at one point, felt some typa way about...smh..apparently that is A ok and they don't even explore other options or feel the least bit guilty?? even when they "mourned" boomer it was more about marion than him. But rio and his whole ass innocent child are not a thought at all??? Wild. Truly. Also....what do they think will happen?? If I were a gang leader's right hand the first person I would check upon seeing my boss get murdered would probably be the person who tried to murder him last time lmao. Do they really think they would get away with it? Even if they didnt get caught, they wouldnt be off the hook. Surely mick would just keep things going, with even less leeway. And what happens when their illegal activities bite them in the ass when Rio is gone? Who are they gonna blame everything on? Who is gonna clean up their mess? No one. And this whole "I'm not doing it, wait yes I am, wait no I'm not, wait I'm gonna do it" thing the hitman is doing is...not it. I'm assuming were gonna get an explanation about how he knew that this was a crime of passion (lol)

-beth beth beth......you know there is a theory floating around that she has serious ptsd and I actually would love to see that explored but that shit ain't happening lol. I'm tired of feeling like I'm analyzing her character. At what point is it too much. She's hard to read but I think it has crossed the line over complex and ventured into poor characterization. She's gotten chances and chances and I'm tired. And dean. God I'm tired. I feel like all season I've been watching beth do the same thing, play good wifey, risk her (and Annie's and Ruby's) life by doing stupid shit..and that's basically it. Face some fckn consequences for your actions please. Take some responsibility. I feel like the show is showing us inklings of...something...bubbling underneath the surface but it's not our job to fill in the blanks or interpret shit. I do not work for nbc. I'm not getting paid for this. What is this girl thinking trying to get rio to invest in hot tubs (bless her calling dean an idiot. fuck this show for making him suddenly a good salesman) while trying to kill him. Does she think he dies and suddenly she owns it?? Makes zero sense. Also unpopular opinion i dont like that she caused a scene with the pool ball. Like....of course he isnt listening to you....you shot him...3 times....then stole from him....and have been screwing him over repeatedly.

-dean just....no. I understand that beth has so much going on in her life right now that divorce isn't exactly on her mind and dean is the last trace she has left of a normal life so shes holding onto it for dear life.....actually no. I do not know if any of that is actually true or if I'm just interpreting wrong. Because the subtext and editing and parallels and all that would be fine and dandy but not when that's all the show is at this point. If dean cheating yet again is not gonna make beth leave him, nothing will. I want his screentime to be 30 seconds and nothing more.

-im just not invested in the boland children. Annie and ruby have both struggled real bad, but beth, the one in the deepest, has 4 children who are somehow unaffected by this?? Not to mention the whole divorce, wait never mind, oh look a gang leader hanging out with mommy again, oh look our house is empty, type stuff happening. Beth's kids should be going through it but for some reason they arent? Maybe it's because child labor laws or something lol.

- rio. At this point I'm rooting for him for than anything. But I genuinely do not know why he hasnt killed beth. She's proven herself to be more of a liability than an asset and I just cannot understand why he hasnt killed her. Unless it's the whole "feelings" route, which wouldve made him look dumb, but made sense based on what we were given. This is actually the direction I thought the season was going but now it just seems like he is a bad businessman lol. Obviously she cant die for the sake of the show, but its like they didnt even try to make it make sense. He definitely knows about the hitman btw. I dont really blame him for anything he's done with beth so far. He robbed her in retaliation. He had to cut her off when she started acting shady. 🤷‍♀️ he let's her get away with too much tbh. It's a shame that this character isnt being utilized. Its like they are banking on this mysterious aura to keep working, but we are 3 seasons in and it's a little old now. I personally think that they just don't know what to do with him now. Also can I point out how dumb he looks showing beth that he is doing business at the carwash, why would he give her more information than she needs when he is suspicious of her? I cant tell if I was happy with how unphased he looked about her outburst or if I wish he checked her.

-mick. Did his side plot with beth die? How does it seem like this show simultaneously moves through plots every episode but is also stuck in the same one for the entire season? I also think mick is not being utilized. As funny as it is for him to be a built in 3rd wheel all the time, they could do so much more. Like can you imagine if beth mouthed off or fucked up and mick checked her? The possible ways a plot like that could go...untapped potential.

-ruby. Ah...I remember when I thought her and stan's fight was dragging for too long. Miss those days. See even tho ruby and stan seem to have the same issue over and over it's not the same story. Pen cap, new job, sarah stealing, all the same fight, but with different stories. And it really seems like Ruby's always going through it but I appreciate the variety. Stan's storyline has been interesting but I dont know how much it relates to the central plot. Sarah....great. that actress is so talented and even tho shes an attitude machine (what preteen is not) i just love her scenes. Harry seems to be missing a lot. The hills are the only part I seem to enjoy anymore. Really wish the show would explore why ruby seems to be the one who keeps getting caught up with the law...I wonder what it could be....what is different about her..hm...

- annie. Backtracked so much. Wish she had a single plot that didnt revolve around men. Now shes trying to cheat on her GED. Where's the snark? Where's the wit? It seems like all she is now is a codependent insecure mess. And I'm tired of this fuckass therapist. I thought her study montage was gonna end in a "she didnt need anyone but family (:" lesson but it did not for whatever reason. I thought by bringing a therapist into the show it was gonna give us more of a look at Annie's and Beth's upbringing and relationship. Or help annie work through her issues, the boomer thing too. Or maybe lead to Beth's ptsd diagnosis. Therapy could've helped move the plot forward or help the characters grow, but it's doing the opposite of that. If its not contributing to the main plot, what is its purpose? To give annie yet another terrible love interest?

To summarize....I hate it here.

[leighways]

Y’know, I debated not answering you bc what you sent sounds like the typa shit that attracts unwanted discourse. So if that was your intent (and I mean this with all sincerity): go fuck yourself.

I’m not sure where you got the idea that I’m "still devoted to" C3, esp since the last piece of art I made for that ship was pre-KTGG -- nearly a year ago. That was also the last time, until recently, that I spoke about C3 at all. So ???

I will admit I didn’t answer that ask very thoughtfully when I originally responded -- mostly bc I assumed by now ppl understood my stance on this issue -- so I went back and edited for clarification. However, if you’d read my about page instead of jumping to conclusions, you’d know where I stood.

But since that clearly didn’t happen, I’ll spell it out for you: I used to ship C3. As of right now, I don’t. However, during the time in which I did, I was in the process of building an extensive backstory AU that I am still very much attached to and enjoy creating content for. It was designed specifically to establish Copia as an outsider -- not a member of the Emeritus family -- which has been my view of him since since day fucking one (x).

One scroll through my blog will show you none of this is new. Copia's underdog status plays a vital role in how I draw, write and headcanon him, as well my general attachment to his character. Sure, you can sit there and claim I dreamt all this up for the purpose of shipping, but you'd also be lying out of both sides of your mouth. If my development of this AU was nothing more than ""justification"" for C3, my blog wouldn't be littered with loads of art and comics focused on the rest of the family and their respective dynamics. (x) (x) (x) Not to mention the countless memes and shitposts that have goddamned nothing to do with any of this.

Anyway, for me, an AU only works if you can establish a very clear departure from what's been described in canon. KTGG presented several plot holes I had never previously considered, and these muddied waters made me unsure of how to continue world building. I don't want to publish anything until there are no surprises left, so until we get more official information regarding this lore, I have temporarily pulled the breaks on this project.

Still, none of this is reason to completely dismantle something I've been working on since 2018. Nor does it suddenly make the material itself "problematic". I should be able to keep my AU (C3 storyline or not) without ppl like you accusing me of being some incest-obessed fujoshi simply bc I chose to view the source material in a way you don't personally like.

From last summer forward, every time I’ve been asked about the topic of my AU, the answer never contained any mention of C3 (x) (x) (x) bc I don't currently ship C3. If by "devoted to" you meant "it's on the back burner and also the stove isn't on" then sure, I'm super devoted.

But even if this weren't the case -- even if the amount of currently unanswered questions didn't bother me and I plowed ahead with my story no holes barred, what exactly would my crime be? Why would an AU created to explore the non-canon backstories of Copia (a Catholic orphan) and Papa 1 (his unrelated mentor) suddenly become problematic just bc once in a blue moon a scene appears in which Copia has a boyfriend? Considering all content I've made for C3 sees them as completely unrelated and has also been 100% SFW, what line have I crossed? I know my lane. I'm not mlm (I'm not wlw either, which is what you're trying to peg me as) so I would never create explicit content for a community to which I don't belong. But if you think LGBT+ folks can only make material tailored to their specific identities in order to not be fetishy, then I've got some fuckin news for you and you're not gonna like it.

Anyhoo, I don’t believe for one second that you’re this casual by-standing "outsider" -- not least bc you knew exactly where to find the post where I first addressed the plot twist possibility, but lmfao whatever you say bubs. I also love that you’re on the "outside" while simultaneously in the know about what the fandom collective has decided re: What If Copia Is An Emeritus. You need to get your story straight.

Damn near everyone in this fandom has created some sort of AU -- whether that be a world where they self-ship, a universe in which none of the Papas died, or, I dunno, one full of dragons and dinosaurs :-) The fact that you're specifically honing in on my AU with insane and disgusting out-of-left-field accusations tells me everything I need to know about both you and your motives, so listen very closely: there is nothing wrong with creating an AU that diverts from canon. Despite what you think, viewing Copia as unrelated to the Emeritus family is pretty goddamned normal around here. And considering Tobias obviously wanted us to think of him this way (and let us do so for over a year and a half) it's easy to see why so many ppl prefer that concept to the story we'll probably get.

You are not the boss of me. You are not the judge of my character. You have no authority over me, and you need to stop talking as if you do. Your tone is condescending and sexist -- which is odd, considering you're not speaking to a woman. I'm definitely not a fujoshi, but you quite possibly might be a transphobe. Or is truscum a more accurate way to describe you? :-) Anyways, thanks for that. Getting misgendered in our own inbox? We love to see it.

This is the last time I’ll be addressing this topic. If you have any further questions feel free to call my personal hotline @ 1-800-EAT-MY-ASS.

Chapter 17

Come Here!

Mira sat Nashi in one of the guild's booths before grabbing a tray stacked with booze-filled mugs. She carried it with such skill and grace, making it look easy to balance all of the cups without spilling an ounce of liquid. She had offered to watch Nashi at the guild so that Lucy and Natsu could both go on a job with the rest of their team.

Watching Nashi was easy for her. Not only did her cooking manage to sedate her when she was crying her lungs out, her magic also managed to amaze her. Cana had told her that Nashi wasn't quiet in awe, and that she was quiet out of fear thanks to her Satan Soul causing a shiver to run down anyone unlucky enough to be close by. The girl dismissed her. Her magic wasn't scary. It was impressive!

After handing everyone their orders, Mira made her way back to Nashi, who was munching happily on chicken- Mira had removed the bone to make sure the child wouldn't choke. Mira would never forget the day Nashi was old enough to consume normal food. Natsu and Lucy had busted inside the guild, ordering one of everything. Tears were streaming down their faces, glad to finally be able to eat anything other than mashed potatoes.

Nashi was growing up right before everyone's eyes. They were scared that if they blinked, Nashi would turn into a full-sized adult. Instead of needing to be put in a highchair, she could sit in normal seats. She didn't need her head to be supported anymore because she could do it herself, she knew how to stand, and she could finally eat solid food thanks to the tiny, sharp teeth that she now had. She had even hinted at taking her first step. It hadn't happened yet, but it was sure to happen soon.

Nashi was a pink-headed ball of curiosity, constantly crawling around and exploring her surroundings. At the guild, she and the twins were always traveling together. They would wait for her to catch up while she faithfully crawled after them.

Mira glanced at Nashi in the corner of her eye to make sure she wasn't venturing off to places she shouldn't be. Last time, she nearly crawled right out the door.

"It's so crazy to think that Natsu and Lucy have a kid now," Cana said, grabbing the girl's attention.

"You think so?" Mira asked, a pleasant smile forming over her face. "I knew they would get together from the start."

"Well yeah, we all did. Hell, remember the betting pool we had for them? I just meant that it's weird how much time has passed. We were all just kids before, and now some of us are raising our own!"

"What about you? When are you going to settle down and start a family?"

Cana gave a face-splitting grin and lifted her booze. "Never! That just ain't me, you know that. I don't wanna settle down or nothing. I'd rather be the cool aunt that slips these kids some booze behind their parents' back when they wanna party or something. What about you? You don't strike me as the typa girl who doesn't want kids."

Mira shrugged. "I wouldn't mind if it happened, but I'm not actively planning for it either. I think after raising Lisanna and Elfman, I did my fair share. Besides, babysitting my OTP's kid is enough for me! Nashi is proof that I finally managed to get them together!"

Speaking of Nashi, Mira glanced towards the child again. She was sitting with the Jutla and Yajee, all the while babbling words that nobody could understand. It would take a while longer before she would be able to say her first real word.

As Yajee left the table, Jutla followed closely behind. The two always shadowed each other and were never found without their counterpart. Nashi's mouth parted before she carefully climbed off the booth. Wobbling unsteadily, the child got down on all fours and crawled after them.

However, the twins were moving too fast for her to catch up. Releasing a frustrated noise, Nashi stood back up on her feet. She swayed as if she was going to fall over, but she managed to keep balanced.

Mira's eyes went wide at the scene.

"I think Nashi's about to take her first step!" she exclaimed. At this, the entire guild stopped what they were doing and whirled their heads to find the child shakily lift her right foot.

"Oh no! Lu-chan and Natsu aren't here! They're going to miss it!" Levy said with a frown.

"Do we stop her then?" Cana questioned.

But it was too late. Right in front of their eyes, Nashi swung her foot forward and took her very first step. The guild roared with cheers, nearly scaring her enough to make her fall back on her bum. After the first step, she went for another.

"Oh my gosh, she's doing it!" Levy said. "Good job, Nashi!"

"Come here, Nashi!" Mira exclaimed, holding her arms out in front of her. Nashi glanced towards her, lifting her foot to take another step when someone else shouted.

"No, come here!" Cana said.

Rerouting directions, Nashi took a step towards the brunette.

"No fair! I want her to walk to me!" Macao protested. "Come here, Nashi! Come on!"

And with that, war had begun.

"She's gonna come to me!" Cana shouted. "Just watch!"

Levy furrowed her brows and shot back, "No, she's going to come to me!"

"You know what this calls for?"

"Betting pool!" everyone shouted in unison. They threw together a large sum of money before they resumed beckoning towards Nashi.

"I bet she'll choose me," Cana said, a wide grin on her face.

"No, she will come to Juvia!" the blue-headed girl replied. "Nashi spends much more time with Juvia!"

"Well she spends even more time with me!" Levy argued.

Mira flashed them all a smile. "There's no point in trying. She'll come to me."

"What makes you say that?"

"Because she's got Natsu's genes in her, and if there's one thing Natsu loves almost as much as he loves his family, it's food. I am the one who feeds Nashi."

Everyone else shared a worried glance. She had a point. Nashi may not have even been a year old, but her appetite rivaled those of Fiore's championship eaters who competed in shoveling large amounts of food down their gullets. It didn't help that Mira's food was to die for.

"Come to your Aunt Mira," the woman calmly said. She knew there was no way she could lose. Sure, Levy may have spent more time with her, but food was the way to the child's heart.

Sure enough, Nashi tilted her head to the side before taking a wobbly step towards her.

"No fair!" Cana shouted. "You're the babysitter! You can't be part of the bet!"

"Says who?" Mira replied. She crouched down to Nashi's level, wiggling her fingers in an attempt to make the child go faster and end their bet already.

Everyone groaned, watching as Nashi took step after step towards the take-over mage. Curse her and her insane cooking abilities.

Just as Nashi was right within reach, the grand doors to the guild swung open, revealing Team Natsu.

Natsu roared his typical greeting as they all entered. Immediately, their eyes landed on the large pile of money that sat on one of the tables. They then looked at all of the adults in the guild crouched down with their arms held in front of them. Then, their gazes traveled to where Nashi stood with one leg dangling in the air as if she was going to take a step.

Lucy pushed Natsu out of her way as she took a step closer towards Nashi.

"Wait! Is Nashi walking!?" she shouted. "Tell me we didn't miss her first step!"

"Sorry, Lu-chan," Levy replied, followed by an awkward chuckle. "If it makes you feel better, Nashi is really good at walking!"

Natsu and Lucy fell to the ground, their faces pale.

"I can't believe we missed it!" Natsu cried, tears flowing down his cheeks.

"We'll never get to see that moment!" Lucy joined in. Before she could really start the waterworks, her eyes darted to the pile of money again. Then it hit her. "Wait a second, are you all betting on something?"

The guild froze, sweat dripping down their foreheads.

"N-No! Of course not!" Macao answered.

"He's lying," Natsu said. "His heartbeat is going crazy. What's the bet this time? Who're you guys tryin' to get together?"

"That's not it," Lucy replied, her brows furrowing. "They're betting on who Nashi is going to walk to!"

"Oh, I want in on this," Gray said, tossing some jewels to the pile. Holding his hands out in front of him, he created a Happy-shaped ice cube. "Come to your Uncle Gray, Nashi! Remember how I always babysit you? Time to return the favor!"

Erza cleared her throat before casually placing some of her own money in the pile. She hadn't spent as much time with Nashi as Gray had, but she'd be damned if she lost a competition of any kind.

"Nashi," she called out, her voice stern. "Come."

Before Lucy could protest, a light appeared out of nowhere as Loke stepped through his gate on his own accord.

"Hey, Lucy. Don't mind me, just joining this bet really quick," he said. At her bewildered look, he held his hands up in surrender. "Can you blame me? It's easy money! Nashi loves me. Besides, I'm the lion spirit with cat ears, kids can't resist!"

"Will you guys quit betting on our family!?" Lucy demanded, planting her hands on her hips.

"Yeah!" Natsu chimed in. "Besides, we're the ones who're gonna win this bet!"

"Huh?" Lucy watched as Natsu threw all of their earnings from the job they just returned from into the pile. "Natsu! That's all of our money!"

"Exactly!" the pink-headed boy replied, a toothy grin stretching over his face. "Don't worry, Luce! We're gonna win this for sure!"

"What makes you so sure?"

"We're Nashi's parents! 'Course she'll come to us!"

Lucy blanched as Natsu crouched down and started calling for their daughter. There went their money for the week. Well, there was no going back now, and she was not about to let everyone else win a bet based off of her family anymore.

"Come to Mama!" Lucy said, waving frantically. The child glanced at her before taking a step towards her. "That's it, Nashi! You can do it!"

As everyone beckoned for the child to come their way and used magic or food in an attempt to lure her, Nashi only took straight steps towards her parents. Natsu and Lucy watched in awe as she walked. She was really walking!

"I can't believe she's walking already," Lucy said, tears pricking her eyes. It felt like only yesterday when she was sporting a baby bump.

"Yeah, I know," Natsu replied. His heart was full of warmth as he took in the happy smile on his daughter's face. "She's growin' up so damn fast. She needs to stop!"

"I agree! But at the same time, I'm so proud of her!"

"I know! Look at her go!"

Finally, the bet ended as Nashi took the last step towards her parents. They wrapped her up in a tight hug, both of them praising her.

"Good job, Nashi!" Natsu exclaimed, planting a kiss on the girl's forehead. "You did it!"

"We're so proud of you," Lucy added. She knew that Nashi couldn't understand a word they were saying, but she refused to go without praising her daughter.

Natsu gave his wife a wide grin. "Told ya she'd come to us! She'll always come to us because she's our little girl!"

"Until she's old enough to get a boyfriend," Happy said, flying over them.

"Or a girlfriend," Lucy added with a shrug.

Natsu furrowed his brows at the two and clutched Nashi close to his chest. "She's not allowed to have either!"

Mira and Cana watched as the family began to bicker and tease Natsu.

"You know," Cana began, leaning against the bar and taking a swig of alcohol before continuing, "I don't think I mind losing the bet this time."

"Me neither," Mira replied with a smile. "What a happy family."

Hello again.. I am here with a nice smut for all you lovelies.. this does have to deal with dd/lg.. if that bothers you, then please keep scrolling.. no one wants to see your ugly comments on something you could never understand.. strong power, thank you..

Type: Kim Taehyung X Reader (first person view)

Warnings: BDSM, DD/LG, blowjobs, NSFW typa shiittt, smutty smut stuff..

Background: you are a choreographer in S. Korea and have finally made a name for yourself.. you’ve known taehyung for some time now and occasionally spend the night at his apartment since it’s closer to the studio.. but today is gonna be a different type of day... ☺️

I woke up to my alarm going off. I look at my phone and it’s 730am. I put it back on my bed face down dreading having to get up. I hate mornings. As I stand I notice I’m unusually more drowsy than usual. Sleeping at tae’s was never a problem. Usually he’s gone when I wake up, so I walk out the guest room with just my oversized tee on. I walked over to the large window in the living room and noticed how grey it was out side. With out thinking I reached for the stick thingie that opens the blinds. Obviously I didn’t grab anything and I looked at my hand like I was crazy. Tae never opens the blinds. I always do that when I wake up. I finally turn to see the back of a shirtless tae tae making eggs, sausage and rice for 2. He turns and looks at me.

“Well good morning y/n”

“Good morning.... what are still doing here?”

“Well, it’s rainy. I’d rather stay at home with you”

I rolled my eyes. Of course I was use to the flirting from not only tae, but the rest of the boys. That’s typically there job, so you could say I was almost immune to it....almost.

“Don’t you and j-hope have to go over some things for your new track?”

“Yes”

I turn back to the window to see that it’s pouring rain outside.

“Well, I guess I better get ready. I have a big number I need to finish choreographing before next week”

“Why dont you stay here with me today y/n?”

I turn back to him and sigh.

“Because tae, we all can’t afford to buy half of Seoul when we’re bored.. I do have rent you know.”

Tae grabbed his heart as if shocked by my words. He knew I was only joking tho.

“I made break fast for us. Can you at least eat that?”

“yes daddy anything for you.” I said mockingly.

I looked up at tae’s face and he seemed to be staring intently at me. Maybe what I said thru him off guard. None of the boys know that I’m a little. I just don’t feel it’s something to tell them. I don’t even think they know what DDLG is. As I sit and start eating taehyung clears his throat.

“I didn’t know you saw me as that y/n”

I almost choked on my food.

“What? No, tae tae it was joke. Don’t even worry about it, okay?”

He put down his fork and leaned on his elbows so that his face was close to mine.

“Why don’t you stay home with me today baby. We can watch movies and order pizza. I bet you would love that”

My heart dropped out my ass when he said that. I wanted to stay, but I had things to do. As much as I wanted to go little at that moment, I had to control it.

“As much as I would love to taehyung, I have responsibilities that I need to take of.”

Tae looked at me with an I don’t care attitude. This time he leaned closer to my ear.

“ stay with me baby girl.. I want you here with daddy”

Ohh goodness. Why does he need to use the deep voice? I feel myself blushing and getting hot, then he backed away and stared at me waiting for an answer.

“Fine, fine I’ll stay. But I want a large cheese pizza.. and juice.”

“Done and done princess”

Words cannot explain how happy my little self is.. I haven’t been able to go little in over a month dealing with this new number and it’s driving me crazy. Maybe a good RP would make my life a little easier.

After we eat, we clear the table and sit on the couch. He put his arm on the back of the couch while I snuggled under him. As the movie started playing tae looked down at me.

“Yes can I help you sir”

“Actually you can, look up at me”

I looked up at him and could see the lust and amusement in his eyes. He wanted me. And not just sexually. He wanted my little side also.

“What?” I said quietly

“Are you afraid to go small around me?”

“What do you mean?”

I had to play dumb. I knew what he meant but I wanted to make sure he knew what he was talking about.

“Don’t play dumb Y/N.. I’ve known you forever now and you think I wouldn’t see your little secret?”

My eyes widened and my cheeks felt hot. I sat up immediately.

“Tae, it’s not that I’m afraid to go little around you, I just... well it’s been a while let’s just say that”

“Do you trust me?”

I looked him in the eyes and shook my head yes.

“Use your words.”

“Yes I trust you tae.”

All he did was smile. He got up and went to a closet by the door. He came around with a stuffie animal. It was a pink tiger with hearts all over it. I could feel the smile on my face turn into an excited giggle as he got closer to me.

“Umm, is that for me tae tae?”

My voice was a little softer right now since my mind was slipping into little space.

“Of course it is princess. I got it for you a while ago. Just wanted to give it to you at the right time.”

He handed the stuffie to me and I squeezed it with a happy hug.

“Hmm.. I’m gonna name you Tyler!”

I was just about in full baby girl mode. Tae grabbed me and put me on his lap. He grabbed the blanket from the back of the couch and put it over me as he held me.

“Thank you tae tae.. I really love Tyler! He’s gonna be my most bestest friend in the world!”

“Aww I thought I was your most bestest friend in the world?”

Tae started to tickle me a little. I started laughing while trying to get him off of me.

“No tickle tae tae!”

He stopped tickling me and kissed my forehead.

“My little Y/N is too adorable”

He rubbed his nose on mine and sat back against the couch. Some moments later the doorbell rang.

“Pizza pizza!!”

I was too excited for this. I was able to finally release some stress and be little for once. To be honest I don’t really trust many people with my little side.. aside from my job, that was the main reason I haven’t gone little in so long.

Tae put the pizza down on the counter and I started to reach for one. Tae grabbed my hand.

“No baby you gotta wait. The pizza is really really hot okay”

I sighed and pouted.

“Okay tae tae”

“Do I hear a little one getting impatient?”

This excited me. I knew I was gonna turn into brat mode soon if I didn’t stop, but I couldn’t help myself.

“Maybe I am being impatient. What are you gonna do about?”

Tae looked at me with big eyes. Maybe he wasn’t prepared for the bratty side.. oh well. He should’ve thought about that before making me go little.

He picked me up and sat me on the counter.

“Listen little girl, I know what you’re trying to do. And it’s not gonna work. So you might as well stop it now”

I looked tae straight in the eyes. Did he just challenge my brattiness? I smiled as I climbed off the counter.

“Y/N I’m warning you. I don’t wanna punish you but I will if I need to”

Hmm. Big me kinda liked that. But I was having too much fun thinking about what ways I could torture him. Then an idea struck. I ran into his room and locked the door. I could hear tae walking torwards the door calling my name.

I went into his closet and found a nice Gucci shirt. I put it on the bed and ran into the bathroom. Tae was knocking in the door telling me to open it. I found the sissors and went back into the bed. I knew I shouldn’t be doing this but it was too much fun.

“Y/N, if I have to open this door you will be in big trouble”

I just laughed and waited for him to open the door. He left and then came back and unlocked the door with something. I held up his shirt and sissors showing exactly what I intended to do. His face went into almost full dom mode. This excited me tremendously.

“Y/N, I will give you 3 seconds to put everything down or you will get a punishment.”

I giggled

“What kind of punishment daddy?”

This seemed to excite him as well, in more ways than one.

“Now why would I tell you that baby? Put my shirt and sissors down, now”

“Ooo so demanding”

He started to count.

“1”

I moved the sissors closer to his shirt.

“2”

I moved them onto the shirt. All I had to do was close the sissors and his shirt would be cut. I could see the anticipation on his face. This was too much fun.

“3”

I closed the sissors on his shirt leaving a big cut in the arm sleeve. I immediately dropped the items and looked at tae with a challenging look.

“Oopsies daddy. Looks like I did a bad thing”

“Yes..yes it does”

Tae started to walk torwards me with a dominating tone. It was sexy as hell. The big version of me was coming back to life. I got off the bed opposite of where he was going and ran out the room. He followed me and grabbed me by the waist right in front of the living room window. He pinned my backed against the cold window. I gasped and tried to push him off me.

“Oh no baby girl, you aren’t going anywhere. Daddy has to give you your punishment.”

He kissed me on my neck and I gasped again still trying to get off the cold window. He kissed down my collar bone and over to the other side of neck with slow, and warm kisses. The cold of the window and his warm body and lips was sending me..my gasps were turning into small moans as he kept attacking my neck and collarbones. My body started reacting on its own, making my hips move to get some friction. Tae took notice of it and stopped. He turned me so my front was now against the coldness. He started to kiss my back with really warm kisses. My back was still frozen. His kisses felt like the best kind of torture. I started moaning more as my nipples were forced against the cold window. I tried to move and tae smacked my ass.

I know what kind of punishment this is gonna be. I haven’t had sexual frustration forced upon me in a while.. hopefully I can handle this.

“My safe word is lovely”

He stopped kissing me. He leaned down close to my ear.

“Okay baby. Don’t worry. I won’t go pass what you can’t handle.”

He kissed my ear and licked it. My back arched and he forced my body back against this cold ass window. I was about to explode.

He turned me around and put his thumb on my lips. I kissed it slightly and he took a deep breath.

He looked at me intently and said “knees. Now”

I immediately dropped to my knees. My body was still cold from the window and goose bumps formed on my body. Tae pulled his pajama pants down. His dick was right in my face. I knew what he wanted, but I waited for him to tell me what to do. He started to stroke himself. I looked his hand with anticipation. I wanted to taste him. I wanted to choke on his dick and feel him in my throat. I started to fidget and get wet at the thought of tae’s dick on my tongue. But he never offered it to me. He just kept pumping his cock right infront of me.

I tried to contain myself as I started to breathe heavier. I looked up at him, begging him to fuck my mouth. He rubbed the tip of his dick on my lips. I licked his head and started to wrap my mouth around it. He pulled it out of my mouth and grabbed my hair. He forced his length inside my mouth to back of my throat making me gag, then pulled out. He did it again and again til I started coughing and couldn’t breathe. He pulled me up and put me on the couch.

I looked up at him as he mounted me. He climbed up my body til his face met mine. He layed his body on mine and started to kiss me. He grabbed my hands and put them above my head and held them with on hand. He put his other hand on my hip. Tae started to kiss me more intently now. I wanted to grind my hips on him, but the weight of his body and his hand forcing my hip down was making it hard. He started to kiss me on my neck down to my chest.

“Tae, please..”

“Please what baby? You wanna beg me for more?”

He kissed his way back up til his mouth was on my ear.

“You want me touch you, and please you baby? What do you want? Tell daddy what you want.”

He started to grind his cock on my pussy. With my panties still in the way I was growing more frustrated. I started to have light growls with my moaning. I was losing control. Tae’s voice seemed to get deeper as he started to slow his grinding.

“You wanna feel my cock inside you baby? You want me to fuck you and make you scream my name? Tell daddy what Y/N wants.”

My breathing was becoming quicker. I tried my hardest to move but tae was not having it. He moved his hand from my hip to my breast. I wanted to explode.

“Tae, daddy, please.. “

“Please what baby? What do you want? I didn’t want you to cut my shirt, but you did. Because you do what you want right?”

“No daddy I don’t.. please..”

He moved his hand to my pussy under my panties.. he started to rub and finger me. But right when I was about to cum, he pulled his hand away. He did this again and again and again and again. I started to cry.

“Daddy please!”

“Aww baby girl, are you frustrated? Look how wet you are for daddy. You love this don’t you?”

My mind was going blank.. I couldn’t go any longer. Tae seemed to noticed this. He pulled my panties off and slowly put his cock inside me. I could feel every inch making its way inside me, slowly. It felt so nice. My mind was making its way back to reality. Tae put both hands on my hips as he started to move slowly. I looked up at tae and made eye contact with him. Wow this man was so sexy. He moved down til his mouth was on my ear again. He started to move faster and I could feel myself about to cum again.

“Oh taehyung, please, don’t stop. Please don’t stop daddy.”

He started to grunt in my ear as he moved a bit faster. His moans and grunts and growls could’ve sent me to heaven. He started to pound into me as our moans filled his apartment.

“Oh my god Y/N, you’re so fucking tight”

He slammed into me a couple more times as we came together. I could feel his dick throbbing inside me as his hot semen flowed in me. We both layed on the couch breathless. Tae was the first to get up. He grabbed his pajama pants and put them back on. I found my panties and put them on.

He brought the pizza and juice over as I grabbed the blanket and layed under him.

“Y/N, I don’t want to have a punishment fuck next time. I want it to be a loving adventure okay?”

“Okay daddy. I’ll be a good girl for you”

He kissed my forehead and relaxed. We watched movies in each other’s arms for the rest of the day. I’m glad I decided to stay home.

[theparaminds]

The importance of isolation and love in music can never be understated, both being essential drivers to creation and devotion to the craft as well as creation of meaningful content. For Mississuaga artist Mileena, this is all too familiar, knowing the pain of heartbreak as well as the opportunities it passes along, opening the door for new love and all the music in between. Mileena is a growing master of emotional expression, using her lofi sound to connect to the listener in a way fresh and new, yet so familiar and friendly. 

Paramind had the amazing opportunity to chat with Mileena on her inspirations, ambitions and future plans...

PM: First question as always, how is your day going?

Mileena: It’s going quite lovely so far, thank you. 

PM: For those who don’t know, who are you and what is that you create?

M: My name is Mileena, I’m an artist who writes, sings and occasionally kinda raps to lofi tracks. I also take pictures sometimes. 

PM: Of all the work you've created, is there any that stick out to you as one’s your specifically proud of? And while being proud, how do you not allow yourself to settle for where you are artistically? 

M: In retrospect I’m proud of all my work but i think I’d say right now my fave is the third song on my recent release Honey Blues, called Sunshine. I feel like I fell off for a moment with my writing and sound but I bounced right back when I wrote that track and it set me on fire. It felt good to perfectly translate how I was feeling into lyrics after feeling so off, so I’m for sure proud of the comeback. I’m also a firm believer in us as human beings being in a constant state of change and growth and when it comes to music and writing, it’s no different. I could never settle with where I am because I know i can get better and do better than I did before and so im in constant motion artistically. If I’m taking a break from songwriting which I often do to experience things to write about, I try to fill my time with other art like poetry or shooting to getaway from music a bit but this way I’m still keeping my creative-ness (so to speak) alive. 

PM: Is there a certain aesthetic you work to achieve in your sound? 

M: To be honest I have no fuckin clue, my aesthetic is kinda all over the place but really and truly I just want to embody myself. My music is where I get to be honest with myself and others so really I just want my sound to be wherever I’m at.

PM: Has that aesthetic been inspired by other artists, whether musical or not, and if so, by who? How did they change how you approached music and creation? 

M: Noname’s sound altogether just took me so off guard in the way she took rap music and made it soft. And really I’d never heard music like her’s before and it made me realize that rapping could be like that 100%. That really your sound as an artist could be whatever the fuck you wanted it to be and that you didn’t have to fit in a box. I used to be really insecure and so I always felt a really strong need to belong in terms of genres and what the typical artist from said genre should be like but Telefone pretty much drove me to saying FUCK IT. I was a late bloomer on Tyler but he reinforced that too with how fuckin different he is and how he highkey inspired a whole new generation of music that I feel like the industry will never give him credit for. Also Frank (of course) and Syd with her soft voice that can really get on any track and belong there. I have a soft voice too, so my music’s usually moody n’ slow but she makes me wanna push my boundaries. 

PM: More so, aesthetic directly relates to emotion and experience, do you find you have a such feelings you’d like fans to take from your music? Maybe a mood it should put them in? 

M: I want them to relate to my stuff if anything. I’m usually talking about boys n’ how they love and hurt me all at once but these feelings aren’t new to the human race and I know people know exactly what the hell I’m talking about in my music. I want them to feel close with me because I open myself up to the world when I release something, my shits really honest and from the heart and the things I’m talking about are real. Its kinda cheesy but I want people to know that theyre not alone in all that love shit, I know what It’s like to feel super lonely and i wouldnt wish it on anyone. 

PM: On the topic of your fans, do you have any future projects to share with them going forward? 

M: Be patient with me I’m going to knock ur socks off...

PM: How do fan interactions affect you, whether positively or negatively, and how do they shift mindsets in how you present yourself? 

M: SOMETIMES I FEEL REALLY INSECURE ABOUT MY MUSIC BECAUSE I’M VERY CRITICAL AND ANALYTICAL OVER ALL MY STUFF, but when people approach me or DM me or anything me about my music it really fills my heart with some motherfuckin JOY. Somebody actually DM’d me recently asking when I was going to release something new and told me they liked everything I’d put out so far and to hurry up. It really motivated me a lot, especially because I was feeling SUPER insecure at the time. Feels weird calling them fans because I still feel like the same lame brain I was in highschool but somehow people think I’m kinda cool now, but they really make me want to do the best I can. I appreciate them more than anything. 

PM: As time does go, how do you see your style developing, whether instrumentally or conceptually? 

M: Well, as I keep working at it I’m only getting better. Instrumentally and stylistically I’m always exploring new sounds, but really Imma go with what feels right with my soul typa girl so who knows whats in store. 

 PM: What is the most valuable asset to growing and developing as a musician? Is it experience, practice, reputation etc…? 

M: Staying humble. 100%. You can be hella fuckin confident, but you gotta stay humble. If you don’t you won’t grow or improve much and youll be stagnant. You can be great but it doesnt mean you cant be better, so you gotta push yourself and have the drive to always get the upper hand on yourself. Be critical, he honest, and get off ur ass n’ get shit done! 

PM: Above all though, how do you hope to make yourself stand out and really make a mark?

M: Imma be the best fuckin me ever. Ain’t nobody popped off with longevity following waves. I wanna make one, and I want people to only be able to get my sound from me and me only (unless im out here inspiring people ya know). 

PM: How can you establish yourself in a tier of your own and one which will continue to innovate while engaging?

M: It’s definitely hard doing things and making music other people around me arent but, it’s all about doing it and doing it well. I’m establishing it by being different and shocking but undeniably good and I’ll continue by getting better and better as I polish myself off. 

PM:  Is there anything or anyone you want to shout or promote? The floor is yours… 

 Shout out to my mom for making me and all the people that actually fuck with my music, I love yall and I see you.
