'Since only recently opting to have a new host each year, the BAFTA Film Awards have had various big names on master of ceremonies duties including Joanna Lumley, Graham Norton, Rebel Wilson and Richard E. Grant. While all popular figures, none managed to get the public reaction of this year’s host: David Tennant.

According to sources at the British Academy, the announcement that David Tennant would be overseeing the U.K.’s biggest night for film on Feb. 18 was met with an overwhelmingly positive response that even they weren’t expecting. Whatever the “Doctor Who” legend’s fanbase may be called (even he says he’s not sure and is “open to suggestions”), they certainly took the news well, and he says he’s “grateful for anyone who thinks it’s a good idea.” But he admits that he’s still somewhat “bewildered” by BAFTA’s decision.

Speaking to Variety ahead of the ceremony, Tennant discusses keeping things friendly on stage, how the interest in what he’s going to wear has matched the excitement about his first “Doctor Who” outfit and why he won’t be aiming any jokes at the biggest name in pop (whether she’s in the room or not).

Are you excited about hosting the BAFTAs?

I am! But I’m a bit bewildered. I don’t know what to expect, if I’m honest with you. The whole thing just feels like one of those experiences you say “yes” to because it would be churlish not to. But what an amazing thing to be asked to do. What a privilege.

What’s your approach going to be when it comes to hosting? Warm and cuddly, nice with a little bit of snark or all-out Ricky Gervais?

I think the BAFTA mood is supportive and friendly. Ricky Gervais is brilliant at what he does, but that wouldn’t be my style. I don’t think I’ve quite got that sort of approach, so I think you just have to kind of be who you are, really. But we’ve got some good material that won’t leave anyone feeling got at.

I imagine you’ve been to a few in your time, but do you enjoy awards ceremonies?

On one level, they’re dazzling and exciting and giddy-making and then the other version is rather dull and rather repetitive. So it’s about trying to edge toward the former rather than the latter. But there are some fantastic films in the running. It’s a competitive year. So I think that will give the awards company itself a bit of pep, because I think it’s quite unpredictable. Very often, by the time you get to this stage of awards season, you kind of know who’s going to win what. But I when I look at the categories, I can’t actually guess many of them. I think they’re all quite wide open. And there’s a lot of incredibly talented people doing incredibly remarkable things in each category. So I think that, more than anything else, actually is the engine to a good awards show.

At the recent Golden Globes ceremony, one of the main talking points from the evening was how host Jo Koy bombed on stage. Did this spark any fear of jokes falling flat or you being met with a silent room?

Not being a comic I feel gives me slight cover. I’m not really expected to be good at any of that stuff. I’m just there to hold it all together. And don’t diss Tay Tay, I think is the lesson to be learned. I live in a house of Taylor Swift fans, so I know better.

The BAFTA stage has often been used as a platform to let off a bit of comic steam about some of the issues of the day, especially politics. Are you going to be using this opportunity to raise any thoughts about the government or current affairs or Scottish independence?

I think it will probably focus on the evening. There’s so much going on in the world that one could talk about. But think it would be probably a hostage to fortune to try and use that platform. Obviously, we live in a world where there’s all sorts of awful things going on and we’re all deeply moved by it. But probably the purpose of an award show at this moment in time is to have a moment away from all that.

Have you managed to watch all of the nominated films?

I made a decision very early on that as the host, I had to remain entirely neutral and not pass comment on any of the films. I’m not talking about any of this. I’m removing myself from it. I don’t want it to look like there’s any sort of favoritism going on. So that’s has been my policy, which I’m going to continue very vigilantly until after the awards show. And then I will post all my opinions about who was robbed.

Yes, you have to be the living embodiment of neutrality on stage.

Exactly. I have to be Switzerland.

Have you settled on an outfit for the evening? Have you got a glam squad and team of stylists hard at work?

I don’t think I’ve ever been in a world where people aren’t quite so interested in what I’m going to be wearing. Maybe when I had to reveal my “Doctor Who” outfit for the first time, that probably had a similar level of interest.'

Thanks for tagging me @mistmarauder @rmd-writes and @marjansmarwani! I've had this in my drafts for weeeeks because life lol, but I finally got a chance to do it.

Bold all that apply:

*adding in some notes for context just because*

APPEARANCE: i’m under 5’5” // i wear glasses/contacts // i have blonde hair // i prefer loose clothing to tight clothing // i have one or more piercings // i have at least one tattoo // i have blue eyes // i have dyed or highlighted my hair // i have gotten plastic surgery // i have or had braces // i sunburn easily // i have freckles // i paint my nails // i typically wear make-up // i don’t often smile // i am pleased with how i look // i prefer nike to adidas // i wear baseball hats backwards

(Notes: I’ve worn glasses since 6th grade—yup got them right at the start of middle school. Good times 😂. And I typically wear makeup during the work week or when I'm going out, mostly to hide the bags under my eyes from my shitty sleep pattern lol.)

HOBBIES AND TALENTS: i play a sport // i can play an instrument // i am artistic // i know more than one language // i have won a trophy in some sort of competition // i can cook or bake without a recipe // i know how to swim // i enjoy writing // i can do origami // i prefer movies to tv shows // i can execute a perfect somersault // i enjoy singing // i could survive in the wild on my own // i have read a new book series this year // i enjoy spending time with friends // i travel during school or work breaks (if i can afford it) // i can do a handstand

(Notes: When I say I am artistic, I mean that in the loosest definition of the word. One of the things I like to do is go to one of those pottery studios and sit there and paint. I'm not very good at it; all of my pieces end up kind of streaky lol, but I like the single-minded focus that comes from painting. It's one of the very few things I do that actually quiet my mind, otherwise, it's just going and going and going--always whirring and on to the next thing. It took me a while to learn that you can love something and embrace it as a hobby, even if you aren't the best at it. Who knew?! Certainly not the perfectionist in me lol. Also, I've won a few trophies from my very exciting adventures on the Scholastic Bowl team in high school (I was so cool, friends 🤓); I enjoy writing in the sense that I enjoy and admire the craft itself. I am not myself a writer unless all those years of journaling in my youth and presently writing endless work emails count?

RELATIONSHIP: i am in a relationship // i have been single for over a year // i have a crush // i have a best friend i have known for (more than) ten years // my parents are together // i have dated my best friend // i am adopted // my crush has confessed to me // i have a long distance relationship // i am an only child // i give advice to my friends // i have made an online friend // i met up with someone i have met online

(Notes: I am very fortunate to still be friends with my two best friends from high school and my best friend from college. It's a privilege to have people in your life who have literally grown up with you and walked through various life stages with you. Along those same lines, it's been a privilege to make new friends, and I am grateful for those of you I've had the chance to get to know online and meet up with in person! 💕)

AESTHETICS: i have heard the ocean in a conch shell // i have watched the sun rise // i enjoy rainy days // i have slept under the stars // i meditate outside // the sound of chirping calms me // i enjoy the smell of the beach // i know what snow tastes like // i listen to music to fall asleep // i enjoy thunderstorms // i enjoy cloud watching // i have attended a bonfire // i pay close attention to colours // i find mystery in the ocean // i enjoy hiking on nature paths // autumn is my favourite season 🍂

(Notes: My daily commute involves a lot of waiting on train platforms, and sometimes, I pass the time by looking up at the sky and watching the clouds move, especially in the morning. Also, I am a city girl through and through, but I love hikes--especially in the fall.)

MISCELLANEOUS: i can fall asleep in a moving vehicle // i am the mom friend// i live by a certain quote // i like the smell of sharpies // i am involved in extracurricular activities //i enjoy mexican food // i can drive a stick-shift // i believe in true love // i make up scenarios to fall asleep // i sing in the shower // i wish i lived in a video game // i have a canopy above my bed // i am multiracial // i am a redhead // i own at least three dogs

Notes: I enjoy singing, but I'm not good at it, so I do most of my singing in the shower lol. I am definitely the mom friend in my group, always making sure I have snacks in my bag because my friends are known for getting hangry, and we are not the speediest at deciding where to eat when we are together, so I come prepared. I love quotes, I tend to buy greeting cards with quotes on them and pin them to my bulletin boards at work or at home.

I'd say there are two quotes that underline how I try to live my life, both from the phenomenal Maya Angelou:

"Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better." “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

***

I don't know who's already done this game because it has been almost a month since it was making the rounds, so no pressure: @sunshinestrand @nelsonnicholas @iboatedhere @first-kanaphan @scienter @celeritas2997 @cha-melodius @strandtk and anyone else who would like to participate, please tag me if you do!

#my only edit to the last quote would be that some of us remember what was done and what was said #because we petty lol #no offense to maya tho 😂#tag game #hello it’s me #that thing you queue

u seem like you'd be very good at minecraft and that at some point in the distant past of like 2012 youd have very cool enderman ocs

gosh...now come on anon u are going to make me blush...that is very nice of yall to say um i havent yet successfully played minecraft...tbqh......... OTL every time i try in the past has ended in me getting a migraine regardless of if i have learned the controls by that point or not.

im realy brain damaged wrt video games :/ once i could even platform. now?last time i played super mario sunshine wit wyrm it took me hours to beat the king boo casino level...+ extra 45 min on the boss fight......

i kind of try to keep this on the DL but i ..i aint a gamer. im grandpa at using my computer too. if i hadnt met grim or wyrm i extremely doubt i would have ever stuck to having a smartphone, especially cause my old flip phone got free unlimited data for $20 a month (in alaska mind u!) and by turning it sideways i could watch anything on youtube at 144p. why would i ever need anything else?

i rly like this ask tho like sry to go off on tangents but isk it just made me smile and be like +7 confidence to keep trying to heal my brain to enjoy video games again. and its fine if it never happens! its more abt the journey than the destination..plus, all the people i love are gamers™️ all very talented, and i get plenty enjoyment out of watching them play or talking abt the worlds of games...

1, 6, 7. for the munday meme.

experience yourself - munday questions meme!

AHH, hello, nox!! TYSM for sending these in though i know i am rather late to answering them now (': however, i will always appreciate y'all sending stuff in... so yeah! i shall get right to answering these :D

01. when were you first introduced to tumblr rp , & do you remember how ?

OOH, okay, this is a good question because its honestly a bit complicated. but one of the oldest online friends that i have actually introduced me to the idea that you could RP on tumblr because she's been on it for a while! or, at least, a lot longer than i've been on tumblr LOL though she doesn't roleplay on here... i had met her through another site where people roleplay, but it was one that i originally joined in order to write books.

but the general gist of it is that she told me that tumblr is a really fun place to kind of interact with other people and at the time, i was hesitant to join any other social media because i was very private - you know? though i thought it was interesting that she mentioned that people roleplayed on here, as on the site i used to be on, people had to do it an entirely different way as there was no 'askbox' like there is one here. only a message-board for your account and so all roleplays had to really take place there BUT like i was saying, in january of this year, that site had drastically dropped in activity whenever it came to roleplaying.

so i began to look for a different place to do so on and lo + behold, i then remembered that my online friend had mentioned that you could roleplay on tumblr!! and thus... my first account on here, @mad-hunts, was born. because it did seem fun on the outside and it turned out that joining the platform resulted in me having a lot of fun + i'm continuing to do so now as well so i'd say that i'm very grateful for my friend introducing me to it. because, otherwise, i would've likely not known about it at all.

06. is there something about the roleplay community that irks you ?

hmm, well... i think that the RP community is made up of a lot of awesome people who are also SUPER talented, by the way! and thus, i have already made a lot of good memories whenever it comes to roleplaying on here with other people. but like all things, there is unfortunately bound to be at a few aspects of it that irk you, i guess you could say. the first thing that popped into my head is not like a big thing to me, but its still important.

and that is when people don't read your rules. i mean... don't get me wrong, i'm not infallible myself and mistakes happen sometimes where i might forget about something, but i always try to remember to read a person's rules before interacting with them. this is, of course, because they often contain boundaries that are significant for the roleplayer in question; and if you don't read them then you are potentially risking breaking them as a result.

but yeah, its also important because you want to know how a person's character might diverge from canon if it has anything written about that in their rules and they exist in media; or if they're an oc, it might contain some information in there that is crucial to know. and although i would never accuse anyone on here of not wanting to get to know a person's character as y'all are awesome - like i mentioned before, its just best to read a person's rules so that way, you don't have to guess something about another person's muse (which may lead to some conflict) and you aren't disrespecting anyone's boundaries.

07. what character/s do you relate to the most ?

this is a really interesting question, actually, NGL because it caused me to take a deep-dive into what movies / shows i've watched where i really felt a connection to one character or another. and i'm not going to lie - there are a few out there that i've related to. the one i want to talk about now though might be kind of an odd pick, but hear me out: coraline from the movie by henry selick was a character that i used to relate to a lot, and still kind of do, as... yeah.

she's a kid in the movie, but goddd, are the things she experienced in the movie relatable to me. i mean, wanting to escape from reality because the truth of the matter is... its kind of disappointing at times and being in someplace that's always exciting is very appealing because of that? that's definitely something i've felt, yeah. but coraline also discovers by the end of the movie, i think, that its okay that life is sometimes mundane and/or disappointing at times. because you get to spend your life with people who love you, such as your friends and family, who make your life richer / make everything feel like its worth it.

there's also an elephant in the room with coraline just being a bit different, but i say that in the best way, in other character's perspectives - even those of her family like her mom and friends like wybie. but of course, both of them actually reveal themselves to care about her and in a non-toxic way, which is a way in which the other mother wasn't willing to provide for coraline in the movie. + i've always felt a little bit different from others and like i was isolated from them in the past, but people have proved to me before that... no, they're actually better than you might think sometimes and they like you because of what makes you different.

Horror Con books Pedophile Rapist!

Since I'm posting about this on all my socials here you go tumblr! Mad Monster Convention, a horror con that operates in both North Carolina and Arizona booked Kevin Spacey as a celebrity guest at their North Carolina con this February.

I know, what the actual fuck, right?????

Obviously this decision was met with backlash. Kevin Spacey was very publicly called out a few years ago over his sexual assault allegations (all of which I believe were boys under the age of 18). He went to court in London and was acquitted last year because of some sort of mistrial I believe (I could have that wrong but it was some legality thing and NOT because he's innocent). OJ Simpson was also acquitted but we all know. And I believe the two are under the same management. Shocker.

Now you may be wondering, how has Mad Monster dealt with the backlash? Have they talked to the fans, taken time to consider what this means for the future of the con, opened the floor for a discussion? Nope, instead they began on Facebook by deleting any comments not kissing Spacey's ass, then went straight to blocking anyone that would make a negative comment. I was blocked for commenting, and I quote, "Not Cool." Seems kind of harsh to block a top fan and avid Mad Monster attendee over "Not Cool," but they were blocking others for far less.

Now they have disabled comments on all platforms and continue to block not only fans and cosplayers like myself, but the artists and vendors that pay to be at their event! You would think at a fan centric event, the convention would want to cater to the fans. There would be no celebrities without fans!

Apparently the convention is under new management, which should have been apparent when they started booking more and more non horror celebrities i.e the cast of Smallville, Lou Diamond Phillips, the cast of Dukes of Hazard- which I am about to circle back to. Not to say these aren't good guest, and I'm not trying to diminish (most of them) in the least, but it is a horror convention. Another tip off to the new management should have been when John Schneider (Bo Duke from Dukes of Hazard) was not immediately uninvited from the con when he tweeted about wanting the President of the United States publicly executed. Yes, you read that correctly. He is still on the guest list even though I believe he is under FBI surveillance.

Another new management decision has been to get rid of the Madame Monster Showcase, a horror themed burlesque show that happens every Saturday when there is a convention. I have never attended since it takes place late at night and I am a granny who has to go home to feed her cat, but from clips I have seen and what other people have said, the Madame Monster Showcase is always a big hit! These ladies are super talented and they are a big part of the reason people attend the after party.

The convention is unfortunately doubling down on their poor decisions and disregarding the fans in every aspect. I don't really have a point to make with this post, I'm not telling people to go flood their socials (they're only going to block you if you try) I am just trying to raise awareness about the shit show that is currently Mad Monster NC. The more people are aware, the better chance there is of them righting this wrong and uninviting Kevin Spacey.

I know a few vendors that have pulled out, but most cannot afford to do so. I myself and stuck attending because the tickets are non refundable and I really can't afford NOT to go. The vendors who are still attending are not bad people, they are just artists and small business owners who have already paid to attend and make a lot of their livelihood from conventions.

Anyway, if this could get shared to raise awareness, I would really appreciate it. And if you stuck around this long, holy crap and thank you for listening!

#mad monster party #mad monster convention #mad monster nc #horror #horror community #horror convention #horror movies #fuck kevin spacey #i heard someone say a few celebs have pulled out but ive yet to confirm that for sure #tldr horror con is stupid and gives platform to kevin spacey

Here's why my life isn't a walk in the park!

I'm currently learning how to do email marketing.

I like TikTok but I'm not using the platform at the moment.

And I want to laser focus on Emails. How to write persuasive emails and help businesses in their email marketing strategies.

As I was saying, my life right now isn't simple as it looks.

With my current work, a full time corporate employee and also doing email marketing on the side (for now) it's a very different world.

A completely different WORLD.

You're not only learning the "skill".

But you're also facing your demons, your unwanted habits, your concerns, your limiting beliefs, your confusion, your desperation to make money.

Each day, you're met with odds that will lead you to compare yourself and utterly forget the progress you made.

It's a daily process of LEARNING and UNLEARNING and RELEARNING.

And it can be very draining.

That's why I'm lucky to find the Freelance Movement Tribe.

This community opened my eyes to the importance of alignment.

Aligning your psychology with your services.

We are taught that Freelancing is not a job, it's a business that requires a different kind of approach.

I want to focus on the importance of the psychology part in the business because I was taught (and now firmly believe) SELLING is an emotional game.

People don't actually buy products or services, they're buying solutions.

They're purchasing to ease their pain.

To find comfort and joy.

Which means, emotions and psychology plays a bigger role on the buying part.

A great example of this is buying pants.

Yesterday, I went into the orange app (Shopee) and looked into some straight cut jeans.

I was browsing and I want to find the jeans I saw on this YouTuber's.

But what led me to the jeans section in the first place?

I saw this stylish men on Pinterest with cool jeans on.

Posting immaculately with their aesthetics.

I wanted to look like them.

I wanted to look aesthetic because I think aesthetic people tend to have more dates than regular people.

Plus I love the confidence of wearing nice clothes.

That's the reason why I'm buying the jeans.

To be confident and have more dating prospects.

It's very important to understand psychological triggers.

I'm so blessed to finally align my interests with psychology and understanding people and also with my talent in writing.

I am good in writing. That's what my copywriter sister said.

And I want to be identified as that.

But more that that, I want to be known as someone who can provide value. Someone who makes other people's lives a lot easier to handle.

i want to be a solution,

Astrology Observations 🖤

Please do not repost any of my posts on any other social media platform 🖤🖤

What I’m about to say is quite controversial, and most people actually don’t come to a consensus regarding this topic. But, In synastry, I believe that both people will feel certain house activations. However, I ultimately believe the house person will always feel it ‘more’. This is especially true if you have planets in the house that is being activated. This is because the planet person is activating a certain part of your chart. It’s like someone knocking on the door of your house, and coming into your space. You are always aware of what other people are doing in your space. However, I am not saying the planet person doesn’t feel anything (especially in the case of 8th/12th house synastry) I just believe that when someone is activating a part of your chart, it is likely to stir up feelings within the house person, that are related to the house that is being activated.

I feel like a lot of people forget that cancers (sun,moon & risings) are a cardinal sign. I have never met an outwardly sensitive Cancer placement. They are actually some of the most confrontational and straight to the point people. This is especially true if they have other cardinal placements, or prominent fire in their charts. However, what I will say is they won’t go out looking for a confrontation unprovoked, but they certainly are not these crybabies people have stereotyped them to be.

Jupiter in your Solar Return chart can show you the area of life in which you may be attracting more luck and abundance over the next year. For example, Jupiter in the 3rd could manifest as an increase in short distance travels, and an improvement in the relationships you have with your siblings or cousins. Alternatively, if you wish to write, learn, or publish, this may be a year in which you are mentally sharp, and thus you may see success related to writing, speaking and learning. If you own your own business you may see an improvement in sales or clients over this next year.

If you have an Aries Moon, you may have experienced your mother as someone who was argumentative and somewhat aggressive growing up. You knew she loved you unconditionally, but you did not want to get on her bad side. She may have also had to go through a lot to make sure that you were taken care of. It’s also possible that she was your only caregiver. If you had both parents, your mothers influence and role in the household was the more prominent energy.

If you have a Leo moon, you may have experienced your mother as someone who was very competitive with you (and everyone else lol). She may have really loved the limelight, and being noticed by others. She likely taught you that confidence is what gets you far in life. Alternatively, you might find that your mother always attracted a lot of attention. From strangers, family members, etc.. everyone always had some type of opinion about her.

I’ve found that people who are mars dominant or have prominent Aries or Scorpio placements in their charts really enjoy fitness or some kind of physical activity/hobby.

People who have Chiron conjunct Venus have the potential to become great healers through art, or anything that involves beauty & what we value. These people could literally be make up artists, or they might use their art & talents to empower others, and make them feel confident in their own skin.

When the moon transits your 12th house, you may feel very introspective over those 2.5 days (give or take) You may even experience feelings of sadness and isolation during this transit. Alternatively, it may be a period in which you feel an increased connection with the divine. You may start meditating more, practicing tarot, or anything that connects you to the spiritual realm.

Saturn in the 7H of a composite chart, is actually a great placement for Saturn. I know that Saturn gets a bad rep, but it favors maturity, responsibility, and commitment. Thus, Saturn in the 7H of a composite chart can indicate longevity and commitment between two people (if other factors support this of course)

People who have malefics (Saturn & Mars) in the 7th and 11th house, are often hesitant (closed-off) when it comes to close partnerships or friendships. As they get older they may realize that they’ve experienced many unpleasant situations in these areas, and thus they may avoid making new friends or getting into relationships in general. After their first Saturn return (if the malefic is Saturn) their perspectives are likely to change, and they may be more open to new experiences in these areas of life. People who have Chiron or Pluto in the 7th, or 11th may also resonate with the feeling of not being able to trust certain friends or partners.

FLOOR IT, BIKER BOY EXO ☓ THE BOYZ

Aug 24th, 2022

Today marks the 9th anniversary of this blog, my blog, the last one before we enter the double digits.. I don’t usually make commemoration posts but I wanted to thank everybody who contributed to the positive experience I’ve had on this website. I’m also a dozen followers away from my next milestone so might as well kill two birds with one stone as they say ^^

First, I'd like to make a small announcement: I'm opening requests ! I'm not expecting a lot of demand as I'm not the best gifmaker and I only gif for a few selected artists, but it would mean the world if I could get even a few requests in to keep me busy. You can find all the specifications here

Nine years.. that’s more than a third of my life at this point. A lot has happened in the span of those 9 years and Tumblr has always been something of a haven to me. And that's all thanks to the incredible people that populate this platform, I think I've been very fortunate in meeting the loveliest, kindest individuals there are on here and I thank you all for the support you've shown me over these years. Might it be leaving a nice tag on one of my posts to being mutuals for nearly a decade, every single kindness you've extended to me is deeply valued and always appreciated

I'm grateful for every single one of my followers. Thank you so much for liking and sharing my content, and for sticking around with me ! I don't think I'll ever be able to fully express how much this community means to me. I have so much fun here and it's really all thanks to you

And to my dearest, sweetest, most beloved mutuals. I'll start with a small aside to my fellow content creators:

Each and every single one of you is talented beyond belief and I'm forever honored to be your mutual. I truly look up to everyone one of you (and might even still be intimidated by some), it's still kinda crazy to me that I've been allowed inside this awesome space.

AHHHH HOW DID THIS HAPPEN

To behonest ive been holding off making this post for a hit because i was affraid they'd all be bots or id randomly drop in followers quickly as i made it because its so hard to beleive that its actually reached this point! Never like in my life did i espect this and in such a hectic stressful time for me its honestly made me so damn happy! Im so proud of what we've done and i say we because theres is no possible way id have gotten to this point without all the lovely, kind interactions, reblogs and likes from all of you fantastic people! Thanks so much to all of you for supporting me and enjoying my content and just making me feel like the luckiest person to have the kind of audience of followers that I have. You are always so amazing and it's really been incredible to see my progression credible to see my progression in art and in general Internet liberal Internet recognizability among some of you. I've gone from someone with 5 followers to a person who people genuinely recognise in the communities that I draw for and nothing in my life has made me feel more feel more excited and appreciative than you guys. I cannot thank you enough for how far you've gotten me and the fact that you've helped me reach this incredible milestone. I'm going to tag a few people now who have been particularly significant to me in my time on Tumblr and have really made this experience as good as it can possibly be through my interaction with them and the incredible inspiration they've offered me

@animallover4000 You have been there for me since very near the beginning and you've always offered me a great conversation and support when I needed. You're an amazing person and such a fantastic user to have known and I'm really thankful I met you on here.

@rainboom-23 Same as with the 1st tag you've been the 1st tag you've been here for a very long time for me. You are someone I am always glad to see and even though you're not online as much as you used to be I'm always thankful to have you around.

@leobashi You started out as someone that I couldn't imagine at all interracting with because you are such a talented artist and you have been such an inspiration to me and my art style ever since I started drawing here. I have you to thank to so much of my art style and so many of the amazing concepts you have come up with have been such an inspiration to me. Thank you so much for being a part of my journey here on Tumblr.

@tracobuttons Ever since you stumbled upon my blog it's been so amazing to see the way that you support me and other artists on this platform. You really do a service to so many of the underrated artists and I even have a lot to thank for you spreading my art to people. You are a saint among the jse community artists and your art is beautiful and wonderful and I hope that you know that.

I also want to thank my little ghost likers because don't think that I don't see don't think that I don't see how often you will support me from turning up so me from turning up so regularly in my notes

@dragonsavernero @glass-trash-bab @bondedostae @chaos-carnation @7spaceace7 @reblogs-are-the-love @celestialcompassion @bidiza55555 @itsonlyparker @mostlyghostly42 @monstermemories @silver-dragon-rider @floorgoblin @maxthelocalemeraldmayor @gemthespaceangel-blog @shawnthevampire

And of course I have to thank every single person that's followed me, looked at my posts, spread them or liked a single one of the things on my blog because I honestly could not be here without any of you contributing. I love you all so much and I don't know where I would be on this platform without your endless support and love. thank you so much.

💖❤💚💙💜🧡💛💕

❗❗WAHOO HELLO!! PLEASE READ BELOW AND TAKE A LOOK AT THE LINK!! ❗❗ I'm so very happy to showcase this project at last on my page!! Over the past 4-5 months, a wonderful bunch of KNY artists (@/sibylance.draws, @/mevrouwrozestudios and @/skelezonic ❤️) organized and moderated an amazing KNY OC Zine to highlight some of the awesome original characters that have come from this fandom in all kinds of light!! Special shoutout to @/xbloolii for creating the adorable gacha themed cover for us! Please take a look at everyone else's gorgeous submission on the google drive here: ZINE LINK:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aM44EqgNCIZYgUrOyBd57esGNyBsdOx-/view For my submission, I wanted to try my hand once more at manifesting how Spirit Breathing appears in all its hot ember glory. Ya'll have seen plenty of Azumi being a cheery goof on here, but when girl gets serious, its deadly. There's a reason she was able to survive Kyojuro' intense training regimen! Those dagger's she's staring will be the last thing seen by the poor soul on the other side of this painting. Everyone did such an amazing job on this, I cannot sing enough praises to the talent in this community from visual to written arts. I'm so grateful to have been included in this project, and to have met so many kind and inspiring people since joining this platform. My KNY creations and enjoyment was limited to me and my close friends. Fandoms can be a scary place but I was immediately welcomed and supported by so many of you. Never would I have thought one of my little creations would be enjoyed like this, let alone take up space in other people's minds. Thank you so much! I hope to return the gratitude in the near future!

Photo Opportunities

Word Count: 2.7k

Pairing(s): Tom Holland x Actress!Reader

Warnings: FLUFF with a slightly (barely) suggestive sentence towards the end

A/n: damn I can't write anything except actress reader? smh but this is for @londonspidey ‘s sit-com Writing challenge (ik I'm early lol) but I was so excited I wrote the whole thing in one go lmao the prompt is bolded!

Calling yourself a fan was an understatement. You were obsessed with anything and everything marvel. And oddly enough, you could after today say you were in the club. It wasn’t a public fact yet, until later that day actually, at the Marvel panel at comic con that you were being announced as the actress for the character, Felica Hardy and no one else knew except for the people who cast you and your best friend who signed an NDA. You were technically still a known actress for your roles on television mainly as Thalia on the PJO Disney + series and a couple of still decently sized films.

You were currently wrapping up signing autographs for fans of yours for today. Your team had planned it out so it wasn’t suspicious that you were at the con with a few of your castmates scattered doing other junkets and press so people wouldn’t guess who they were acting as the cast for new marvel projects.

You had been planning to go meet your best friend, who wasn’t in the industry before getting a text that she bought you both a photo-op with someone and she wouldn’t tell you who. You couldn’t only assume it was a marvel actor that you would indeed, freak out.

Y/b/n: btw I brought you a mask. I get the wig lol.

You: please tell me it doesn’t cover my full face. Also, how are we posing?

Y/b/n: I bought as many photo ops as I could so a lot of different ones, And if I tell you the poses it’ll spoil it.

You: is this with the money I pay you to be my assistant with? Lol fine I’m omw with security

Y/b/n: maybe…

Y/b/n: and they’ll need more backup security for who we’re getting a photo op with than you do for your hellfire.

You roll your eyes before taking your stuff and exiting the booth, before heading out the backways with staff security and your detailed security for the day. You only had security because you wanted to explore the con when you weren’t needed.

Your best friend had also been your assistant for the con weekend, but you didn’t want her to be confined to you the whole three days so when she could, you would let her explore it, at least she could experience it as a fan, right?

When you made it to that part of the building, you wanted to wait in line with her, which your security didn’t agree to so she texted you when there were about five people ahead of her. She was one of the last in line, with you asking her to be kind, so others would get their chance to be first with whomever it was.

When she texted you and your detailed exit, getting a few stares and others taking their phones out to either take photos or tweet, you wave at them before joining your best friend in line.

“Here,” she says before handing you none other than a black cat mask before she puts on a red wig.

You glare at her slightly trying to not make a scene, before putting it on.

“I’m assuming you're Mary Jane?” you laugh figuring out that it had to be someone from Spider-Man.

“How’d you- never mind.” She laughs with you.

She then explains how she’s going to pose for your five photo ops, joking in between how she should “get a raise for this”.

You catch sight of him before sucking in your breath. This was either going to go down amazingly or terribly, there was no in-between with you.

“Excuse Me, are you Y/n Y/l/n?”

You turn around and are met by some fans who were standing in line behind you.

“I am! How’s your con going?” you ask politely to the two of them.

“It's going amazing! We love you as Thalia! Could we maybe get a picture? Only if it’s okay?”

“Of course! Thank you for supporting me!” your best friend grabs their phone to take the photo, before you take off the mask, and stand between the two fans, and your best friend snaps a few photos.

“Thank you so much! And Are you fans of Tom?”

You start slowly walking back to catch up to the line.

“Yeah, I love him as Spiderman, but I also enjoy his other roles. He's very talented, I'd love to work with him one day!”

“Have you seen him in Uncharted? We love Him as Nathan drake!”

“I have, he was amazing per usual! How are you two posing with him?”

They show you their innovative pose. You laugh and tell them it's great before you have to wish them goodbye before heading up for your turn for the photo op.

“How do we want to pose- hang on, I recognize you!”

You freeze slightly before your friend mouths for you to flirt. You look down at the mask in your hand before getting into character and saying “Of course you do Spidey, I'm always causing you trouble.” you put on the mask and wink.

He seems slightly stunned, laughing, feeling like he’s seen you somewhere, not only because he found you extremely gorgeous, while in his peripheral vision he sees his brother/ assistant, Harry waving like a madman on the side.

Your friend directs you both through the poses, first, one both him putting “webs” onto you as she looks over his shoulder, the second one, both of you kissing his cheeks, the third, all jumping in the air in your best superhero poses, the fourth one she gets a photo op alone and the last one she gives to you,

“Seriously, who are you?”

“Your Wildest dreams, baby,” you say, taking off the mask.

Your best friend yells “freestyle” from the sidelines before Tom dips you, gently, with you shocked, holding the mask out with your free arm and the photo captures that moment.

He gently helps you stand back up fully, not before you drop the mask.

“Nice moves Spider-Man.”

“Not so bad yourself, Black Cat.”

You laugh before, taking off with your best friend, well more her dragging you to the printing station leaving the mask behind. Tom picks it up before shoving it in his back pocket to hopefully give back if he could find you.

`You were sitting in the green room, trending on Twitter before you were actually supposed to be trending on Twitter, and god knows where else.

Someone had snuck a video of you and Tom, up till him dipping you, and a video of you interacting with the fans in the line.

Your Y/b/n was currently reading off some tweets out loud

“‘A kind queen we stan.’ I agree, I also agree with ‘Date her if you can't date me tom!!!’.

‘THALIA AND PETER PARKER??? My two fandoms have collided.’ same, same. Oo this one says, ‘if she ain’t playing black cat I will sue marvel.’ I'm dying at the reply ‘She needs to post the photos or I'll sue her!’. This one’s funny, ‘she could squash him like a bug in heels but he liked his queen like that.’.”

She pauses watching you texting.

“Y/n? Y/n?”

“What? Sorry I was only half listening. I was texting my publicist. She said to stay on the DL until tonight.

“Well we should get food, you haven't eaten since this morning.”

“By the way, your show has shot to number one on Disney +. Also, you have like three times the followers you had before, probably cause you're trending on every platform, even Tumblr!”

“Wow you should just become my social media manager now.” you joke trying to ease the joy yet weirded out feeling in your stomach.

“Does that come with a raise? Because after today I've spent way too much of what I'm paid.” she jokes back.

After finishing his photo ops Tom asked Harry who she was and to find out. By the time he finished autographs for the day, Tom and Harry walked to the panel room in the back for announcements, one that included him for the new Avengers movie, while Harry gave him the rundown.

“So she’s an actress, she plays Thalia on Disney plus’ Percy Jackson series, and that's her most known project. The other girl with her is her assistant best friend, and now she's trending everywhere. People dug up some old photos of her being a marvel/Spider-Man fan, so there's that. And she's here at the con for the rest of the weekend. She's doing photo ops tomorrow at one, and yes she's single from what I gather since you were looking at her like this.” he makes a weird face before tom smacks him.

“And plus you have time in your schedule to get a photo op with her, that is if you eat lunch quickly.”

That gave Tom an idea.

“Harry I’m going to need you to book me one, oh and help me find a Spider-Man costume!” He says, before leaving harry to do ‘assistant’ work. entering the green room for the announcements, watching them announce a new movie.

“We are so excited to announce to the Marvel Universe, and spider-verse-” that perked tom’s ears, “-directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, and today we are announcing our amazing Miss Felicia Hardy, please give a warm welcome to the stage, Your Black Cat!”

You suddenly emerged in an aisle way, dressed in all black with a leather jacket, black ankle boots, and of course black sunglasses indoors.

The music is marvel music until it suddenly changes after a recorded laugh from you into “I can’t be tamed by Miley Cyrus”.

You start owning the music while saying hi and touching fans’ hands. You decide to take off your sunglasses and throwing them to a fan, for them to keep, before getting on stage.

“What a Performance from the one the only Y/n Y/l/n!”

You laugh, being met with the loudest applause you had heard all con before being handed a Mic.

“Thank you but I'm a terrible dancer.” You Joke.

Tom was staring at the screen stunned. You had been the black cat all along. You were in the marvel universe and spidey one, so he'd definitely be seeing more of you. The hard part is that you seemed so genuine when you talked, interacted with fans and was no doubt, stunning.

“Better close your mouth or the flies will get in.” Tom turns around to find the voice of none other than his friend slash bully, Sebastian Stan, along with Anthony Mackie.

“Looks like the kid has a crush!” Anthony laughs, pointing to the screen you were on.

“I-I don’t! I don’t even know her!” Tom tries to come to his own defense, hopelessly.

“She’s got you whipped already don’t even deny it.” Harry comes in, joining the teasing of one, Tom Holland.

“Maybe we can invite her out for drinks tonight, then fanboy over here can meet her, and then probably scare her off!” Anthony mentions.

“You haven’t looked on the internet? They’ve already met.” Seb says, before showing Anthony twitter.

Anthony stands there slightly shocked before bursting into laughter.

“Well, she’s damn well a keeper for Tom since she obviously likes him.”

A staff member peaks their head in the green room to tell Tom he’s up next.

“Well, that’s my cue to leave you two!”

On the other hand, you were on an adrenaline high from being on stage, and seeing all the fans. You knew tomorrow was going to be crazy, as you expected people to book your photo op left and right since the announcement.

You had decided to decline an offer from your fellow marvel universe castmates, Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie, which they so graciously told you that whenever you’re free, the offer still stood.

You had gotten to your hotel room seeing your phone blowing up on the social media apps for the second time that day.

You responded to the important stuff, before heading to bed, knowing it was going to be hectic.

You had been right, it was absolutely insane, the number of people who showed up. You had fully booked all your time slots for photo ops. You had seen so many people dressed up in marvel cosplay, ranging from Loki to Ironman, even some people dressed up as your character, which was wildly insane to see.

You had been nearing the end of the line and had enjoyed every moment with the fans, and you couldn’t wait for your autographing session later that day, to truly get a chance to talk to the fans and connect with them and how they felt about you being their beloved Black Cat.

After a few more photos, posing how they wanted, you see a fully dressed, head to toe, mask and all, Spider-Man. You had seen some spider-mans but most took off their masks to snap a picture. The person was the last in line.

“Hey Black Cat.” The southern American accented voice tells you, seeming very familiar.

“Hey, Spider, what poses do you have up your sleeve?” you ask kindly.

“I bought a few, Cat.” they laugh.

“Okay, You can do whatever a spider can right?” you pull out a line out of the comics jokingly.

“I can do flips if that’s what you’re asking.”

“Is that some kind of nerd pick-up line? Because it’s only kind of working.” you laugh.

“I really can, but this is one.”

He gets down on one knee, holding a black cat mask instead of a ring. The photographer captures the shocked expression on your face.

“I- Don’t- What- Spider I-”

“Ow My feelings…” Suddenly their voice changes into a British accent before they pull off the mask to reveal-

“Tom?”

“I guess you don’t have a spidey sense darling?” The photographer captures the moment without warning eating the moment up.

You laugh at that.

“I guess you found out my true identity Spider. And it’s nice to officially meet you, Tom.”

He laughs, just as nervous as you, he notices he has gotten closer to you and a strand of hair loosely is blowing in your face, so naturally, he pushes it behind your ear. Another snap of the camera can be heard.

“NOW KISS!” a voice belonging to your best friend yells from the side, mid-eating a churro.

You both laugh really hard at that.

The both of you calm down, slowly leaning lost in the moment. The camera snaps again. You both look at the photographer weirded out, and they just shrug.

“Wait can you actually do a flip?” you ask, pulling away, not wanting prying eyes aka the photographer, to pry in your business.

“I can, though I’d show you later, maybe in the greenroom?”

“That sounds naughty, but, sure.” you joke around.

He laughs before, you both take off from the area going to grab the photos.

After spending most of the day together when you could, you get Tom’s number, before heading back to your hotel room. He texts you as soon as you get back.

Spider: I had fun today, minus finding our assistants making out.

You: we should ‘snog’ too, it’ll gross them out ;)

You: I had fun too btw. Are you leaving tomorrow?

Spider: lol we should. And yeah an early flight, 6 am to be exact. Hbu?

You: Yeah me too... another day another dollar lol

Spider: ill miss you, Cat.

You: stop talking like we’ll never see each other again lol. As a matter of fact, come to my room, we’re watching a movie!

Spider: alright, I’ll order snacks.

You sigh smiling at your phone. You haven’t felt this giddy in a long time.

Your phone pings with a few Instagram notifications.

Tomholland2013 has started following you.

Tomholland2013 has tagged you in a photo.

You open Instagram to find the photo of him “proposing” to you posted.

“Ow, my leg, my- feelings...Welcome to the Universe, Cat.” the photo is captioned. You decide to post, the photo of him dipping you.

“So what do you say, Spider? Wanna help me pull off the Heist of the Heist of the Century?” you caption it, Before getting comfortable to watch a movie.

What an opportunity ;)

Characters: Albedo, Kazuha, Xiao, gn!reader

Word Count: 3,707

Warnings: Swearing

Premise: Modern AU in which the reader’s s/o is famous.

Author’s Note: My first crack at a modern AU and I enjoyed it immensely! My personal media of choice definitely came through in this prompt. I would now kill for Albedo to read Shakespeare. Also streamer Kazuha is an inspired idea, thank you anon for that! Not to mention musician Xiao, truly chef’s kiss.

Albedo

Albedo was a stage actor, both by education and by trade. Starting in high school he began in local productions, before entering into the Mondstadt Theateracademie. After appearing as Estragon in a filmed version of Waiting for Godot, he began to be scouted for various television miniseries, eventually becoming a well-respected film actor.

You arrived somewhere in the middle of his career. Working as a costume assistant at the Academie you had quickly fallen for the inquisitive and deceptively intense soul that exuded every color of emotion onstage, from raging anger to soft sorrow, before stepping into the wings and resuming an aura of utter calm. He had captivated you, both as an actor and as a human being; and when you learned that he had also become slightly infatuated with you, well, it was hard not to feel like you had stepped into a wonderful play, or perhaps simply a wonderful play had been brought to life.

The switch from theatre to screen was certainly a jarring one for both of you. When the first film contract was offered Albedo had stared at it for a long time, rereading it over and over again as the coffee in front of him quickly turned cold.

“Is there something wrong with the contract?” You had asked.

“No, it’s not that. It’s only…”

“Only?”

“Only on stage there is a single audience. You can feel their reactions, can measure their response. There is nothing nebulous about the people around you. But on film you cannot do that. You cannot adjust for time of day, or whether it’s a weekend or a Friday performance. You must let your lines out and hope that they land without even being able to calculate it.”

“It’s not a science experiment my darling,” you had teased.

“Maybe not,” Albedo admitted. Still he continued to read and reread, and it was only until the next afternoon that he had told you his answer.

Still, you had to admit that he made a fantastic actor. The naturally inward part of your partner’s personality, the part that always seemed to jump out the moment he left the stage, worked well to balance with the camera’s need for subtlety, unlike the projection required for stage plays. It was little surprise then that he should grow so popular. Despite all the worries about measuring audience response, there was no doubting the success of Albedo’s acting career.

Being a naturally withdrawn person Albedo mostly stayed off of social media. He had one private Instagram for friends – he didn’t post anything; one private Facebook for family – the only picture was one of you two in the mountains next to a particularly weird looking rock; and WhatsApp – which could barely be counted. Thus when he started blowing up on Twitter – a platform you had a mostly unused account on – the reaction was mostly one of “why are they talking about me?”

Not that Albedo minded fan enthusiasm, indeed when people started showing up in droves at the stage door for him he was always careful to thank everyone collectively and talk to as many people as possible, it just sort of confused him that so many people should take a vested interest in the actor and not just the character.

“It’s because they want to show you how wonderful they think your performances are,” you’d explained.

“I don’t have Twitter,” Albedo deadpanned.

Despite his protests though you sometimes caught him scrolling on your account, face slightly red at all the positive attention. His habit of internal self-deprecation had never truly gone away. That fact became slightly unfortunate in the face of hate comments. It was hard for Albedo not to take things personally. If someone said his acting was shit then you would catch Albedo reading the same line over and over again, as if to achieve mathematical perfection. It was a difficult urge to fight, and you were always careful to give Albedo plenty of reassurance when these things popped up, as well as surreptitiously blocking the trolls that wandered their way onto your dash.

This habit to take things at face value did not apply when you entered the mix. As far as Albedo was concerned you were his partner and no amount of complaining online would make him second guess that or second guess your worth. Even if you thought that you had a better hold on social media assholerly than he did Albedo would still make sure that for every hate comment that floated your way there were at least three compliments on his part. Mentioning you off-handedly in press interviews, saying that he had to go home to his partner, leaving small sketches on post-it notes scattered throughout your apartment, there were no lengths that Albedo wouldn’t go to assure you. And, if you had to admit, these things truly did make you feel better on the days when the small part of your brain said that this wasn’t mindless social media harassment.

Being an actor Albedo had an incredibly fine-tuned sense of the way that people responded to emotions, as if he were performing some grand sort of scientific experiment to see how many people he could sway with his gift. As of such he was always careful that, regardless of his success, things between you were never upturned. You were with him before he was really famous, and you would be there during and after. Albedo loved you deeply; though he often said that he hated romance plays for how sappy they were in his mind your relationship was the one, glowing exception – regardless of the other happy couples in the world. Though it was slightly idealistic, it was the kind of intensity that comprised Albedo’s personality, was the thing that had garnered him so much success.

Albedo loved you deeply, and no amount of surprise movie contracts would change that.

Kazuha

You had to admit that when you had met Kazuha you had no idea about his double life as a streamer. He was merely one of the many singers that came and went to the recording studios, all people eager to unleash their talent on the world. But unlike the rest of them, Kazuha could make you laugh.

Perhaps then it was unsurprising that Kazuha should be a popular streamer. Though his often florid talking style might seem on paper like it would be too grating for streaming, in reality his soft cadence combined with a dry sense of humor made him wildly popular. He rarely lost his temper, making him palatable to those who wanted to have a fun time without blowing their ears out, and when he did lose it his hyper-specific, often nonsensical insults were the stuff of memes. No, in retrospect it was not all that surprising that Kazuha was a beloved streamer.

At heart though, Kazuha had told you over coffee, the enthusiastic and earnest internet sensation was a poet.

“When you’ve had a life as dissonant as mine, how can you not be?” He’d joked. And indeed perhaps he was right, for Kazuha was as wonderful a poet as you had ever read. He was born to be a writer, you had told him.

You were also an aspiring singer, as well as a friend of the studio owner where you did your recordings. As such you had made it a habit to help around the studio when you weren’t also working or studying. As you and Kazuha were both students with intense side jobs, the good natured complaining of overworked students also made their way into you rapport, a friendship that grew day-by-day. Eventually it sprouted into love.

Though you knew that Kazuha was a streamer when your relationship started, in reality you hadn’t realized how truly popular he had become. The first time you watched one of his streams you were blown away by his popularity. Watching your first livestream only cemented that. It was hard to believe that your down-to-earth, slightly self-effacing, partner could have garnered such a large fanbase. Not that you didn’t think he deserved it. He absolutely did. However after seeing that you admitted you were a bit awestruck.

“Why? Am I not the same person on screen and off?”

“Of course you are! It’s just, well, my partner’s a celebrity!”

“I would go that far,” Kazuha laughed.

“Well you certainly are to me!”

Nevertheless your dynamic didn’t change much afterwards, besides the occasional teasing on both of your parts. Kazuha was after all Kazuha at the end of the day.

At the beginning Kazuha didn’t mention you much on stream, certainly not by name, you had to admit you were a bit intimidated by the idea of being recognizable on the internet, even if it was just by name.

“This is also my partner’s favorite map.” Had been his first mention, during a game of Mario Kart.

Despite this offhanded remark however the chat had almost immediately exploded, followed by the rest of the fanbase. Though there was, of course, some disappointed buzz – isn’t there always – the reaction was immensely positive. Positive, and curious.

After a while Kazuha started mentioning you more often in streams, especially after the two fo you moved in. Sometimes you would hear him as you passed him room – Kazuha liked to keep the door open – other times you would watch it on stream yourself.

“My partner hates this character. Too bad you can’t throw evidence.”

“Nobody tell my partner that I’m afraid of basements. I don’t need them to know that when laundry day rolls around.”

“Hey if you’re watching this dear, I promise that it’s not that much money. You don’t need to look at the bank account. Who am I kidding, this is why we don’t share one.”

“Hey, darling I know you’re watching this. Can you check and make sure I left my keys on the coffee table, they aren’t on my desk. Also can you make tea?”

Despite fans knowing very little about you, you were surprised by the amount of positive comments that flooded the streams. You had to admit that your initial expectations had been “people are going to find me annoying”. Instead funny comics of your voice drifting in from the other room popped up, along with a lot of waving and “tell your partner not to trust you with the keys” after Kazuha fell off a cliff one too many times. It was an odd experience, to be so happy about the comments of faceless people, people to whom you were also faceless.

Eventually Kazuha’s hardwork in singing paid off and his first single was recorded and given a deal. On the evening of the release livestream Kazuha set up in the living room, angling the camera so that you could sit on the chair just out of frame. You had talked about the release for months now, and a few weeks ago Kazuha had brought up the idea of a pseudo-stream reveal.

“I was wondering if you’d like to say hello to the audience or wave when my song is released. I understand that you’re hesitant about those sort of things, and I would never ask of you something that would make you uncomfortable. This relationship is the most precious thing to me, and I wouldn’t want you to feel pressured or exploited in any ways.”

“Thank you for being so considerate Kazuha. I’ll think about it.”

Now you sat in the chair, fidgeting slightly, waiting as the countdown on his laptop reached one. You excitement certainly seemed matched by that of the fans, who were typing wildly in the chat.

Eventually the screen faded to black and the chatting quieted down. The first few notes of a wooden flute emerged, combined with the strumming of a guitar. As the familiar words began to echo through the laptop speaker you found yourself washed away. Kazuha was always enthralling when he sang. At the end of the song was a dedication, and though Kazuha had already alluded to it, the sincerity still took your breath away.

To my dearest partner. My compass and my guiding star throughout this realization of my dream. You are my sun and my stars, and I’m forever devoted to you. Thank you for sharing in this project, and thank you for giving me such love.

Perhaps it was slightly saccharine. Regardless you felt the sudden, uninhibited urge to cry.

“So, what did everyone think?” Kazuha asked into the mic, face reappearing on screen. He was slightly giddy, and you watched as his hand tugged on the fabric of his linen belt.

Immediately the chat exploded, as waves of “that was amazing”, “I’m crying now”, and “the end was so sweet!” flooded the screen.

“Thank you all for the encouragement!” Kazuha let out a laugh, one that you could tell was one of utter euphoria, and no little relief. “There’s someone else I think who would like to thank you.”

Who knew that a small sentence could cause such a splash?

You barely had time to let out a tentative “Hello,” before an immediate wave of excited screaming covered the bottom left of Kazuha’s stream. “Thank you for supporting Kazuha’s song. And thank you for always being nice to me.” With a tentative wave of the hand you collapsed back on your chair, slightly hysterical laughter rising inside you out of the relief that flooded through you upon seeing the enthused fan reaction.

Afterwards your voice became the occasional guest on Kazuha’s streams, always greeted with enthusiasm. Kazuha continued to grow in popularity, and his music continued to capture a larger and larger audience.

All throughout this you never felt a snag in your relationship. Kazuha may have been a big streaming personality, but he was also a kind and considerate partner, the best that one could ask for in a significant other. Kazuha’s love was never in question. And neither was yours.

Xiao

Sometimes you were a little self-conscious about the way that you met Xiao.

Though Xiao had definitely grown a following by the time you met – being the main pianist for a popular singer and a classical pseudo-prodigy in both piano and flute his own right certainly had roped him an enthusiastic fanbase – you had simply known him as “the guy who hogs the practice room”.

“I swear to the gods, how long can that bastard take to practice!” You texted angrily at your friend one day. Qixing Conservatory was the premiere music place in Liyue, but what should’ve been an amazing opportunity was being overshadowed by a practice room partner who appeared to not have a life, one who also had the obnoxious habit of playing the same damn thing over, and over, and over again.

“Playing the same piece as before?”

“Yes! Ugh I don’t even know what it’s called but I’ve heard it enough times to last a lifetime, maybe five!”

“Damn I’m sorry, what time does he usually end?”

“I don’t even know. Some time in the early evening. It’s obviously never gotten through to his brain that other people also need to practice. Or that hearing the same notes over and over while waiting makes me want to chuck my binder against a wall.”

“Lol. I kinda want to hear it now. Can you send a video, will the sound pick up?”

“I don’t know how it wouldn’t.”

“…”

“Holy shit! Okay, I need you to watch this video and tell me if you recognize the pianist.”

Safe to say you nearly fell out of your chair upon figuring out Xiao’s identity. Not that you weren’t already about to out of pure exasperation. Still, there was something much more intimidating about shaming a successful musician, and you no longer had the urge to glare at Xiao every time he left the practice room. Honestly, you would have been perfectly happy keeping your head down and never interacting with him at all.

Fate, however, has a sense of humor.

To be fair, some of it was your fault. You knew that Erlkonig was a massively difficult piece. You knew that you should’ve picked something else, knew that even Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata mvt. Three had to be less painful than the non-vocal arrangement you’d placed in front of your eyes. You were never trusting your music taste with your piece choices again. This was a terrible mistake.

“These stupid fucking running notes!” You let out, a groan of exasperation racing through you. Half slamming (you weren’t crazy) the piano cover down you swung the door of the practice room open. You didn’t want to deal with this anymore. Trying to ignore the embarrassment that rose up seeing Xiao waiting on a chair next to the door you went to walk down the hallway.

“You should work on it with a dotted sixteenth note pattern.”

It was the first time that Xiao had ever spoken to you.

Afterwards a rapport slowly grew between the two of you. Often Xiao said nothing as you passed, rarely you made a gesture of recognition when he finally reappeared from the practice room. However soon the occasional word or phrase of advice grew into longer sentences, later these sentences evolved into pieces of conversation. Soon enough you discovered, to your slight horror, that you found yourself yearning for Xiao’s company.

Almost as soon as you’d finally figured out your feelings you were hit with a wave of denial. You weren’t falling for Xiao? How could you fall for someone who got on your nerves so much? Sure he gave you advice, but what about it? You deserved it after having to hear him over and over again while waiting. Certainly Xiao didn’t seem interested in you, he barely talked to you! Yeah he was getting more talkative, but it’s easier to talk to people when you’re giving them advice. There’s no way you were in love with Xiao. And there was no way he was in love with you.

To say that Xiao’s career as a musician, never mind his genuine technical talent at two instruments, was a barrier would be an understatement. The moment you thought you were making some progress, finally admitting to yourself that this crush was, in fact, real, a wave of anxiety would pass over you. Xiao was too good for you, he was too important. Here was a man who had a successful musical career already up in the air while you banged frustratedly on the keys. Why would someone that successful be interested in you? Not to mention the fact that he didn’t seem interested.

Because, you had to admit, you did like Xiao’s music. Not just his classical repertoire, but his pop music as well. It was slightly jazzy, mellow and playful and utterly unlike the scowling musician behind it – something you secretly thought extremely cute and surprisingly charming. To him you were just a practice roommate, and you were sure he’d find the idea of dating someone who was more familiar with his public persona irritating.

So you buried your feelings, or tried to. Unfortunately like sometimes attracts like, and just as Xiao secretly had the emotional understanding of a teaspoon, you weren’t nearly as clever about things as you would like.

“Is there something on my face?” Xiao asked, his voice gruff and slightly reluctant.

“No, why would there be?”

“Because you’re staring at it!”

“Oh, I’m sorry!” You let your head drop, looking intently at the ivories in front of you. Eventually there was a sigh.

“You don’t have to do that. I… I don’t mind.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes! You staring down is weird too. Let’s, let’s just hurry up and do this passage.”

After that you became more aware of your staring habit. You also became more aware of Xiao’s own habit, leaning towards you. Sometimes you swore that you could feel the tips of his hair tickling your neck, light and feathery and stealing all your attention.

“Hey, Xiao, do you need glasses?”

“Why would you asked that!” Xiao flared up, face reddening. By this time you’d become more accustomed to these flareups of grumpiness, and ignoring it you pressed on.

“It’s just, you seem to be leaning forward.”

“I’m not!” Immediately Xiao shifted back, almost stepping away. Without thinking about it you reached to grab his hand.

“I didn’t mean it was a bad thing!” You got out, before becoming aware of your hand grasping Xiao’s. The touch felt electric, and you were suddenly so very aware of everything, yet unable to focus at all.

“Then you shouldn’t have brought it up.”

“Sorry.”

“It’s fine.” Xiao grumbled.

Slowly the musician leaned closer to you once more. You had already half stood up and now you found yourself stepping closer to Xiao. The world continued to shrink until you were almost pressed together. Xiao was leaning forward, as were you, and the longer tufts of his hair were tickling your cheek, helped by the fan whirring away in the corner. Your hand was still in his, but all your thoughts appeared to have died away.

“Xiao?”

“Is this, too close?”

“No.”

“Oh.”

“Xiao?”

“What?”

“I like your music. I hope that doesn’t bother you.”

“Why would it?”

“I don’t know. I just, I also like you, not just your music. But I also like your music.”

“I also like yours too.”

Perhaps it wasn’t the most romantic of confessions, but at that point you were far too carried away by the moment, or maybe by the fact that was the most sentences Xiao had strung together that weren’t about triplets. Regardless of the fact, you were suddenly seized by incredible happiness, as all appeared to right itself.

Afterwards initially little changed, Xiao was a gruff as ever, you were still itching to play in the practice room more. Nevertheless when you went to a concert of his for the first time and he let out a small, almost imperceptible, smile your way you knew things had changed. They would keep changing perhaps, or maybe they wouldn’t. After all, this moment was beautiful.

So much that you didn’t even mind the hours spent waiting for the practice room.
