9. Hello! I am in the mood for a wangxian arranged marriage fanfic. I would prefer a longer story (over 50k words, if possible). It can be canon or even AU. I would like the story to focus not only on the relationship between LZ and WY but also on the politics behind it. It can also be omegaverse. It would be great if their relationship is rocky at first and then becomes better. If there's more fanfics like this, I would be grateful for all of them. Thank you very much. @/broodyelii

🧡 a stone to break your soul, a song to save it by rikke (M, 179k, WangXian, Canon Divergence, Arranged Marriage) Definitely meets the length criteria, though its been long enough since I last read it that I don't recall how much it went into the politics of the marriage

11. I am currently reading "Get it right (mdzs time travel) Series" by AmiraAlzilu (AO3) and now I'm ITMF for a time travel fic where LXC and LQR are specifically called out for their lack of trust in LWJ witness testimony (aka child/elders in the Burial Mounds) and believing a sworn brother over family. Bonus for a) apologies or b) digging a deeper hole aka surely LWJ is mistaken, Meng Yao would never, I'm looking at you chapter 15 to 17 of this fic LXC (yes I'm salty). Bonus bonus for consequences on LXC's loose lips telling things to others he was asked to keep in confidence.... @/mreisse

I'm #11, and you know what? Recs calling out LXC and LQR is also fine :)

Weep You No More, Sad Fountains by athena_crikey (T, 59k, wangxian, LXC & LWJ, LXC & JGY, Canon Divergence, Fix-it fic, Whump, Curses, Fever, Delirium, Stabbing, Loneliness, Confessions, LWJ's emotional repression, WWX giving everything as always, LXC realising sympathy is not support, LQR Being an Asshole) Okay so this isn't a time travel fic, so feel free to disregard, BUT! Does have LXC coming to WWX for help & seeing the truth, & characters calling him tf out on how it took him this long, so requester may still be interested

~*~

12. this is an itmf ask!!

13. I swear the only reason I can still consume Wangxian content daily is because of your recommendations.

There’s a couple fics I’ve been craving for a while and haven’t been able to find any I really love, so any help/ recommendations would be much appreciated!

A) Lan Xichen focused fics. It’s so hard to find fics that centre him.

B) Lan Sizhui focused fics. Mainly him with his dads/ family, but also him remembering his past would be great! Baby or adult A-yuan.

C) Wangxian being parents. Wei Wuxian being single parent. Just them being amazing dad’s content.

I’d appreciate any of these prompts 💞✨💫 @/jinxedjaz

Hey so uh, sorry that this is kinda a personal question and unrelated to what you usually post but you seem really nice and I was wondering how you figured out that you were ace? I’ve been struggling with this myself for a while now, and was just wondering if you had any advice or something. Please don’t feel obligated to respond or anything, I totally get that this is kinda a weird question and might make you uncomfy, so sorry about that in advance. Thanks!

Well, I’m going to start off by saying that everyone is different. You won’t figure it out the same way I figured it out, just like how I didn’t figure it out the same way any of my friends did. That’s all right. Take all the time that you need.

Additionally, I only really figured this out for myself in the last few years, and one day something may happen that I identify with a different sexuality and that’s also okay. This is not a ‘one-and-done’ kinda thing. It’s all right. This is your thing. Yours.

For me, it was around my freshman year of high school that I started realizing that I had never really gotten to that phase where I started obsessing over anyone. Now, in middle school, even though that was the time when a lot of people around me really started going hard into the dating thing, I never did. I skipped a year in school, though, so it would make sense for me to be about a year or so later than everyone else hopping on the hype train of teenhood, but halfway through my first year of high school, it was still pretty mute.

People around me would joke constantly, say things like “Oh, well, once she gets her first crush, everything will change.” I remember distinctly my cousin asking me if I had a crush on anyone, and then me saying no, and then my grandma patting me on the cheek and saying “You just haven’t found the right boy yet.”

So, for most of freshman year, I sort of just accepted what people around me said, that I was a “late-bloomer” and I would one day fall for someone hard and everything would make sense.

When the end of freshman year came around, I was quite sure that I was just another straight girl, who would get the whole ‘attraction thing’ soon enough.

As the months went on, though, I realized a few things.

1. Whatever thing was meant to change, didn’t come to fruition.

2. I was perfectly fine and open to dating someone, but I didn’t care about what they looked like. When friends and cousins and the like would show pictures of actors and talk about how hot the actor was, I’d agree, but almost completely on a baseline objective level.

and 3. I was completely uninterested in the idea of sex. I didn’t seek it out, or care about it. It was barely even spared a thought in my mind.

I started thinking that there might be something wrong with me, or that maybe I had felt sexual attraction toward someone, and I just hadn’t noticed. But the further into the year I got, the more I came to recognize the fact that that was not the case.

I recall on one specific wet day in the late winter of that year, I was walking my dog on the one day the temperatures were slightly decent, and I was just scrolling through the internet aimlessly when I noticed something that caught my eye. It was a post (which I cannot find) of around two dozen pride flags, each with a name and description of the sexaulity or gender identity it represented.

That day, walking the dog through slush that got melting snow stuck to his paws and mud clinging to my boots, as the temperature prepared to drop below freezing for another week, I learned, for the first time, what Asexuality was.

I had seen the flag before, of course, and heard the term ‘ace,’ but I had never looked into it, thought about it. I didn’t think much of it at that moment, either. I just filed it away and moved on to exhale sharply through my nose at whatever ‘Stonks’ meme came up on my feed next.

Quite a while (as in, literal years) passed, though, and I found myself thinking about the idea of ‘Asexuality’ that I had heard about more and more.

The one thing that really held me back was the fact that I was fine with the concept of having sex with someone, though I was only really interested in doing it for the experience/intimacy, and possibly in the future to have a child, and I thought to myself, “I can’t be Asexual if I want to have a kid. That’s not how it works.”

Surprisingly (or maybe not surprisingly at all), there was one thing that really did it for me in the end, and that was when Muffin ( @muffinlance ) announced on Tumblr (in a post I cannot find) that she was going to be having a baby.

An asexual (married too, so take that grandma!), having a baby. While still being asexual.

I looked into it, discovered the idea of someone being Asexual Sex-Positive, Sex-Neutral, or Sex-Negative. I found out, truly, about the idea of being Demisexual, or Gray Axsexual. The idea of an Asexuality Spectrum was opened up to me, and I realized suddenly that all of my worries, everything that had been holding me back, didn’t matter.

My Tumblr bio shortly after changed from ‘she/her’ to ‘she/her, ace’ and it was one of the best feelings in the entire world. I don’t quite think I’ll ever be able to describe to someone who never went through the experience of finally feeling like your belong, if only for that one moment.

(also, currently, I’m of the opinion that I am either Biromantic or Panromantic. I’m leaning more towards bi, but I’m completely open still. I also have still not dated a single person ever, so who knows. That’s not what this is about, just thought I’d mention it)

You should take all the time you need, find what fits you. It’s weird to hear, and it’s hard to do, but I’m quite sure that once you find it, you’ll know it.

Last holiday season, while at a gathering with the more intensely religious and traditional side of my family, a cousin of mine sang “I Kissed a Boy,” by Adele, but changed the lyrics to “I Kissed a Girl,” so as not to appear ‘gay’ in any way, shape, or form.

I noticed a different cousin of mine looking a bit upset while he sang the song, and so I talked to her alone afterward to see if they were all right, and after just a few minutes of speaking about nothing in particular, he came out to me in a hallway at a holiday party when no one else but me was around. And, in return, I did the same and came out to them.

He was the first family member I ever came out to, and that was the first time I truly told someone my sexuality. I told them I was asexual, and they accepted it and we hugged and it was one of the more exhilarating moments of my entire life.

So, in the end, how did I figure out I was ace?

I just sort of did. I feel I could have done more research earlier than I did, but that’s all right. It all worked out. I figured it out, and I promise you will, too. And if you get it wrong a few times before you get it right? That’s perfectly okay, too.

Anyway, one more additional personal thought about something I noticed that I think is kinda weird:

Muffin and her actions and stuff are so weirdly tied to such random core parts of my life. I published the first chapter of Fractures because I was encouraged and inspired when I saw her own stories. I finally figured out my sexuality and felt like I belonged, like one of those flags was mine, because of her. It’s just a bit crazy to me. Thanks, I guess, Muffin.

All right, that’s about it. I hope this helps, at least a bit.

I wish you the best, anon, in figuring out who you are. You can take as long as you need or want, you don’t need to stick to a choice. This is your identity. This is yours. Not a single person gets a choice in the matter besides you. Good luck, and remember, you’ve always got me in your corner. If anyone ever gives you shit about this kinda thing, send ‘em my way. I did Tae Kwon Do for two-and-a-half years, and I’m also constantly fueled by spite and Twix bars. We’re all here for you.

That goes for anyone. Don’t be afraid to embrace who you are. I’m proud of you, we’re all proud of you. This is who you are. Enjoy it.

#not atla #ask #ask away #ace things #this is a long post but #you know what im not gonna put it behind a read more #i mean unless someone specifically asks me too?#id do it then #if it was hindering ppl in some way #but other than if that happens #then no!#anyway im gonna go to bed #hope you all enjoyed my ramblings #remember #dont be afraid to be yourself #bc thats all you ever need to be #i promise #edit: ive changed the pronouns of my cousin as they've recently come out and now use he/they pronouns

would it be too much to request a part 2 to cody x demi!reader where cody takes y/n to the mansion with the intention of just introducing them to ej, only for them to meet the whole family (including slender and jack who DEFINITELY don’t think of themselves as y/n’s new fathers and TOTALLY don’t have the wedding planned and y/n’s new room converted and CERTAINLY are not starting to work on a nursery in hopes of becoming grandfathers)

please ignore everything in the parentheses 😂

YES YES YOU MAY XFHSGFSAGHDF I HAD A BLAST WRITING THIS FHDGDSH SLENDERFAM JUST EMBARRASSING CODY WAS SO FUN. That’s probably why this story is 6.4k words long AGDSHFGS

enjoy

‘’Hey, y/n?’’

You look up from your laptop and half-typed essay at your boyfriend. His name is Cody! And he has the softest honey-brown hair and dazzlingly bright green eyes. He’s standing in your doorway, leaning out from behind your door, with his hand holding his phone up to his ear. You tilt your head at him.

‘’I uh- I was wondering if you’d like to come hang out with a friend of mine later? Just the three of us.’’

A friend? Cody- Cody told you he didn’t have friends. Odd. Maybe he made one! You smile at the thought and nod. ‘’Sure!’’

Cody smiles wide and nods. ‘’Yeah, yeah we’ll come!’’ he chirps into the phone, sounding excited. He disappears from view, behind the door, and closes it. From just outside your room you can hear him excitedly chattering to someone. You smile to yourself.

This essay can wait.

-----

‘’So how long have you had this...friend?’’

Cody looks up at you. The two of you are walking through a park- specifically, the park where you asked him to be your boyfriend. He’s wearing his regular track jacket, and has his hood pulled up.

‘’Oh uh- y’know...a couple months…’’ he murmurs, scratching at his neck. ‘’You’ll like him! He’s a chill dude- just uh-’’ he fidgets a bit. ‘’He has a uh- a skin condition! So he wears a mask...try not to mention it, okay? He’s kinda insecure about it.’’

You nod. Oh- poor guy. You decide not to pry any further after that. Cody having a friend is rare, and you don’t want to scare them off. The two of you walk into the forest bordering the park and you look around nervously. It isn’t dark, just evening. But that’s really only a small comfort. Cody takes your hand and squeezes it, like he can tell you’re scared. The two of you eventually arrive in a clearing, away from any and all trails. You frown. ‘’Where are we?’’

‘’This is the spot where he said he’d meet us.’’ Cody murmurs. He looks around. ‘’Weird- he’s not normally la-’’

‘’Hey Cody.’’ a deep voice growls behind you. You yelp and jump in surprise, stumbling away. Cody does the same.

‘’Dude!’’ he yelps. ‘’Stop doing that!’’

You turn and look at the person behind you. Your eyes widen. He’s incredibly tall and dressed casually in sneakers, grey sweatpants and a black hoodie. Your eyes go to the face. He’s wearing a mask, as you expected. It’s blue, and the face is smooth and flat. The eyes are pitch black, with black splotches trickling down the eyes like tears. Fluffy auburn hair hangs over his masked face. He’s- calm. Docile. Just standing there casually with his hands in his pockets. His head slowly turns from Cody to you. His gaze- though he has no visible eyes, bores straight through you, making a cold shiver run down your spine.

‘’Sorry.’’ he grunts. Cody looks at you and gestures to the tall, masked guy.

‘’y/n...this is Jack. Jack, this is y/n.’’

Jack stares at you for a moment, then steps forward. You back up in fear. He pulls his hand from his pocket and holds it out to you. You stare. His hand is big, with sharp black nails that remind you of claws, and ashy grey skin. Right- skin condition. Not wanting to be rude, you take his hand and shake it.

‘’Nice to meet you.’’ Jack’s voice is soft, friendly. ‘’Sorry for scaring ya. I tend to do that…’’ he sounds so sad and apologetic- all fear melts away and you smile gently at him.

‘’It’s okay.’’ you pull your hand away. ‘’It’s a pleasure to me-’’ you stop when Jack holds a clawed finger up. He looks around, sniffing the air. Cody suddenly looks worried.

‘’Something wrong dude?’’

Jack pauses for a moment, then looks at a bush. He lurches toward it, then reaches in. You stare in confusion until-

‘’Hey! HEY!’’

‘’AGH- EJ GET OFF-!’’

Jack lifts two...young...boys...out of the bush. One of them is dressed in a white hoodie and ripped black jeans with converse sneakers. His messy black hair is tied back in a loose ponytail. The other is blonde, with tanned, faded skin and...pointed ears. He’s wearing a green sweater and blue jeans with brown boots. The two boys struggle in Jack’s grip until he steps back and drops them down on the ground. Cody stares in horror as this whole thing happens.

‘’Oh you’ve gotta be kidding me-’’ you hear him whisper. You look from him to the two boys. The black haired boy grunts unhappily and rubs at his head. Looking at him more, you realise his skin is deathly pale. A white, barely pink colour, and his face has two jagged scars curling up from each corner of his mouth in a morbid smile. He looks up and blinks at you.

‘’Who’s the lab rat?’’

‘’They’re not a lab rat!’’ Cody spits.

‘’Food?’’ The blonde boy asks. His bright blue eyes look from you to Jack, who shakes his head.

‘’How’d you two sneak after me?’’ He asks, crouching down. ‘’How didn’t I smell ya?’’

‘’I took a shower.’’ the black haired boy says smugly.

‘’I stopped showering.’’ the blonde says, sounding proud.

‘’That explains it.’’ Jack stands up. You look at Cody and- oh. Oh god.

He looks angry. The angriest you’ve ever seen him. Angrier than that time a guy told you ‘demisexual isn’t a valid identity’. When that happened, Cody broke the guy’s nose and beat him into unconsciousness. You had to literally drag him away before he killed the poor guy! You look at the two kids in worry.

‘’What the FUCK,’’ His voice starts off soft and angry, only to turn into a furious bark. ‘’IS WRONG WITH YOU TWO?!’’ The four of you all flinch. Cody glares daggers at his friends.

‘’Cody calm down-!’’ The blonde yelps.

‘’OH FUCK OFF BEN!’’ He marches forward, but Jack quickly gets in front of him and grips him by the shoulders. Cody glares up at the gentle giant, who very softly pets his head.

‘’Ssshhhh…’’ He shushes. ‘’Go to your happy place, X.’’

Cody’s glare hardens. He inhales sharply, closes his eyes and then- flops...against Jack’s chest. Jack rubs circles into his back. That’s- that’s exactly what you do with him when he's angry- there’s no way Jack has only known him for a few months.

‘’...Babes...?’’ you very gently and very carefully ask. Cody shifts, looking at you. ‘’Uh- so...who’re these guys…?’’

Cody stands back up and sighs. He gestures to the two terrified looking boys. ‘’y/n...these are Jeff and Ben...my-’’ he hesitates. ‘’My brothers.’’

‘’Brothers?’’ you look at the two boys. They’re on the ground, holding each other. They blink at you.

‘’Babes?’’ The black haired boy asks. He looks at Cody, then at you. His mouth opens. ‘’Wait!’’ he jumps to his feet and runs at you. You stumble back as he invades all of your personal space. Up close, you can see he has a green eye and a brown eye, and that his skin is...burnt. ‘’You’re y/n?!’’

‘’I literally just called them that.’’ Cody mutters. ‘’That’s Jeff. He’s dumb. Be patient with him.’’

Jeff steps back away from you. He looks you over for a few seconds. ‘’I like ‘em,’’ he says, glancing at Cody. He looks back at you. ‘’Your taste in guys sucks though. I mean- Cody? Really?’’

‘’Jeff I am going to kill you.’’

You laugh, half out of anxiety and half out of actual amusement. This is weird. So weird. Very weird. ‘’You- never mentioned brothers…’’ you murmur. Cody glances at you, then the others.

‘’Uh- give- give us a second.’’ he mutters before walking toward you and pulling you into the bushes and behind a tree. You stare at him, surprised.

‘’What’s going on?’’

‘’I’ve...been lying to you.’’

‘’Again?’’ you stare up at him, confused. He winces.

‘’Yes...again- but it’s for a good reason this time!’’ he takes a deep breath. ‘’I...I wasn’t homeless. I actually live- or- lived, here in the woods. With Jeff, Jack and Ben.’’ he tilts his head at you to make sure you’re following. You nod for him to continue. ‘’We all lived together with...our dad. He- adopted us all. A lot of us- our dad he um-’’ he fiddles nervously with his hands. ‘’He’s...not human.’’

‘’E-’’ your eyes widen. ‘’Excuse me what?’’ not human. Not Human. NOT HUMAN?!

‘’He’s um-’’ Cody smiles sheepishly at you. ‘’He’s an eldritch monster with no face who likes to bake muffins and read sci-fi novels?’’ Your mind blanks. Literally. You’ve been reduced to a windows error screen but in human form. Cody tilts his head at you and smiles wider. ‘’...sweetheart…?’’

‘’What the fuck…’’ you whisper softly. ‘’How- how did you- why did you let him adopt you?’’

‘’He’s a good dad!’’ Cody says quickly. ‘’Listen- I know it’s a lot but…’’ he takes your hands in his. His hands feel soft, they’re good hands, hands that have carried out genius experiments and held you gently late at night. ‘’A lot of us in the house...we look up to him. He gave us a home, a new life. A lot of us...we didn’t have good lives, but Slender tried to fix that for us.’’ he smiles gently. ‘’Jeff came from a home where he wasn’t loved. Ben- Ben is a ghost...he drowned when he was twelve. Jack was a human, but now he’s a demon. We’ve all gravitated to each other. It isn’t the most functional home, but it’s the closest thing we have to one. Nobody judges anybody, and everybody treats us like we matter. Like we’re loved.’’ his hands squeeze yours. ‘’I know it’s a lot...and it’s scary...but they’re my family, just like you are.’’

You gulp. It’s silent for a few moments. ‘’...Nobody will hurt me?’’

‘’I won’t let them.’’

‘’...then I wanna meet him.’’

‘’Huh?’’ Cody looks confused.

‘’Your dad. And everyone else.’’ you smile at him. It’s your turn to squeeze his hands.

‘’Like- right- right now?’’ he asks. You nod. Cody looks from you, to the clearing where the others are still waiting. ‘’...well- I- I guess.’’

He pulls you back to the clearing and looks at his three...siblings.

‘’Good news everyone! y/n wants to meet dad!’’

‘’Really?’’ Jack turns to look at you.

‘’Are they crazy or somethin’?’’ Jeff asks.

‘’Ohh this is gonna be fun…’’ Ben murmurs with a smile.

Cody glares at them. He sighs. ‘’I told them everything. They wanna meet dad so they’re gonna meet dad.’’

‘’Dude! You gave my deep-seated traumas to another person without my asking?’’ Jeff exclaims. ‘’Rude!’’

Cody rolls his eyes and begins walking deeper into the forest. ‘’You’ll have plenty of time to drop your emotional baggage on us later!’’ he calls back.

-----

‘’So I had Silver lock me in the closet and I had to speedrun the game without even looking at the screen!’’ Ben exclaims. His bright blue eyes are full of excitement as he tells you about his various speedrunning misadventures. He’s been talking you ear off for the better part of fifteen minutes while the five of you trek through the woods. He’s a sweet kid, honestly, and you’d feel bad cutting him off. You honestly never expected a ghost to be so...lively.

‘’Hold up!’’ you all suddenly stop as Jeff holds his hand out, blocking you from walking any further. He turns and grins at you. ‘’Watch this.’’ he steps backwards, holding a finger up in the air. ‘’Now ya see me-!’’ he steps backwards and suddenly disappears from view. You stare in shock.

‘’...and now ya don’t.’’ Ben finishes for him. Cody rolls his eyes.

‘’H-how-’’ your brain scrambles to find an explanation for Jeff just- disappearing. A trick of the light? Mirrors? Maybe a projector hidden in the trees? Jeff’s head appears again, his upper body just- floats there. He grins even wider.

‘’Cool huh?’’

‘’How are- how are you-’’ you squint. Ben laughs next to you and steps forward. He disappears just as Jeff did. The white-skinned boy winks at you and disappears once more. You look at Cody for an explanation. Jack nudges you and you turn to him. He points a clawed finger at the ground. Your gaze follows his finger and you look at the ground. There’s...mushrooms. You arch your brow, confused.

‘’You know what that is?’’ EJ asks, leaning down slightly to look at you properly. You shake your head. ‘’It’s a fae circle. Also known as the entrance to the realm of the fae.’’ he looks at you.

‘’Like...fairies…?’’

EJ nods. ‘’This one’s special though. Dad set it up to keep the house hidden. You can only enter if you’re a fae, or you have the family marking. Of course you’re human, and don’t have the marking, so Cody’ll just pull you through.’’ you can hear him smiling in his voice as he explains. He stands up and steps toward the line of mushrooms. As he steps over it, he disappears from your sight. His hand appears again, and gestures for the two of you to follow. Cody takes your hand in his. He looks at you.

"Ready?"

You nod at him. "Ready."

Cody steps backwards toward the mushrooms. He holds both your hands, keeping his eyes on you. He disappears beneath the veil as he crosses, becoming nothing but some disembodied arms. You step over the mushrooms and-

"Oh my god-!"

Everything just- appears. Suddenly you're standing in a sunny clearing bordered by bushes and tall trees, and standing in the centre is a gigantic house. Practically a mansion. It looks old, but welcoming. The front yard is decorated with various bushes, a flower patch, a set of monkey bars, and a tall fruit tree with a tire swing hanging off one of the branches. I say fruit tree, because just by looking you can see it's growing apples, cherries, avocados, oranges and bananas. Bananas- can't even grow in this climate what-

"Cool huh?" Cody murmurs next to you with a small smile. You grin.

"Yeah…" you murmur. Cody squeezes your hand and walks toward the mansion. "You should've told me you lived in such a fancy pla-" you're interrupted by the loud barking of a dog. You look over to your left and see the biggest dog you've ever seen in your life, poking its head around the corner of the house. It has deep red fur, with some spots of orange and...hair. It has a long mane of messy black hair running from the top of its head and down its back.

"Smile! C'mere boy!" You hear Jeff call. You look over your shoulder and watch the massive dog bound over to the short boy. The dog leaps at him, knocking him to the ground and licking him while its tail wags happily.

"What...what is that…?" You ask, pointing at the dog.

"That's Smile." Cody says. "Jeff's pet hell-hound. He's a good boy, don't worry."

You nod. Smile barks again and turns to you. He grins wide and suddenly bounds toward you. You yelp and stumble back in fear.

"Down!" Cody barks (pun fully intended) at the dog. Smile skids to a halt. "Sit." He says firmly. Smile sits down obediently, his grin dropping. Now you know why they call the dog 'smile'. Cody grabs your wrist and gently guides it toward Smile. The massive dog sniffs your palm ever so gently. Cody lets go of your wrist and you reach up toward Smile, who lowers his head to let you pet him. You grin.

"Well hey there," you coo. "Aren't you a cutie?"

Smile lets out a happy yap and steps forward, butting his massive head against your body. You laugh and hug his head, scratching his neck just below where his spiked collar is.

"Cody!! Ye're home!" You hear a young, peppy voice call. You look over just in time to see Cody grin and crouch down to hug the young girl running towards him. Her hair is short and blonde, and she's wearing a black and white striped shirt, along with grey overalls, ankle boots and a pirate hat. Cody stands up, lifting the girl in his arms. She pulls away and grins at him. Getting a better look at her, you see that she has reddish brown skin that seemingly glints in the light. Her hair isn't blonde, in fact, it fades to red towards the ends, like fire. Her eyes are a bright eye-catching gold. On the sides of her head are two small, red horns that curve inwards. "Ya didn't tell us ye'd be visitin'!"

Cody laughs a bit. "Well I wasn't really planning it." he murmurs, casting a look at Jeff and Ben as they walk up to join you. Cody sets down the girl and looks at you. ‘’Slendra, I want you to meet someone,’’ he gestures to you. The girl, Slendra, looks up at you with big golden eyes. She looks surprised. ‘’This is y/n.’’

She gasps. ‘’The y/n?!’’ her eyes widen and she grins. She hops over to you excitedly and curtsies. ‘’It’s great ta meet ya! Cody told us aaaallll about you!’’

You laugh a bit and crouch down to her. ‘’He did, did he?’’ you give her a sly smile, glancing up at Cody. His cheeks flush red and he glares at you. Slendra giggles.

‘’Yep.’’ she rocks on her heels as she speaks. ‘’Once when he was crushing on you he told us that he wanted to-’’

‘’Avast ye landlubbers!’’ Slendra is interrupted by another young voice. You look up and see a young girl in a pirate costume with a pink skirt. Her hair is brown and frizzy, and her green eyes glare at you and the others with a playful scowl. She...floats, toward you all, her eyes locked on you as you stand up. She stops and points her toy cutlass at you. ‘’Who be this scallywag?’’

‘’Sally, this i-’’

‘’y/n, fearsome pirate of the seven seas!’’ you interrupt with a grin. Cody looks at you in surprise. The girl, Sally, gasps.

‘’The dreaded pirate captain y/n?! Stealer of brother’s hearts?!’’ she cries. You laugh and nod.

‘’The very same.’’

Sally lowers her cutlass and smiles, pleased with you for playing along so easily. She walks toward you and holds out her hand. ‘’Sally Dawn, pirate queen of four of the seven seas.’’

You take her hand and shake it. ‘’y/n, stealer of older brothers,’’ you smirk and lean into her. ‘’Sorry for stealing Cody away, but his booty was too good to pass up.’’ you quietly add with a wink. Sally laughs loudly and lets go of your hand. EJ laughs quietly behind you and opens the front door.

‘’You gonna invite your date inside, Cody?’’ he asks. Cody rolls his eyes.

‘’Course I am.’’ he mutters. It goes silent, with everyone just...staring at Cody. ‘’What?’’

‘’I’m waiting for you and y/n to go in.’’ EJ shrugs.

‘’Why do we have to go in first?’’ Cody replies defensively. You frown.

‘’You scared of somethin’, X?’’ Jeff asks with a smirk.

‘’Like...dad seeing y/n and freaking out?’’ Ben adds with an even wider, cheesier smirk.

"N-No…" Cody mutters. "I just- y'know-" he fidgets, trying to come up with an excuse. You smirk a bit, stand up, and stride right past Cody and into the mansion.

Inside is massive. The walls are a pleasant blue, and when you step out of the small entrance area, you're greeted by a massive living room. There's two black, leather couches, a few single armchairs and some bean bags, all facing a massive TV. The walls are decorated with photos, and in a few of them you can see Cody, EJ and the others, along with people you haven't even met yet.

"Hey guys." Someone greets you as the others come inside to join you. Laying on the couch, holding the TV remote aloft, is a young man. His hair is a light brown colour, and swoops over one of his eyes. He wears glasses, a grey jacket, blue jeans, and a black shirt with the logo of some band you've never heard of before. He sits up a bit, cocking a brow curiously. "who's this?"

"Cody's partner." Sally chimes in as she floats into the mansion. She's hovering, and slightly transparent. Oh. She’s a ghost. Well okay then.

The guy on the couch smirks and stands up. He's taller than you expected him to be. He walks across the room and extends his hand. "Liu Woods. Nice to meet you."

You smile and take his hand, shaking it. "y/n." You say.

He tilts his head, looking at Cody. "You didn't tell us you'd be bringing them over."

"I wasn't planning on it but your brother decided to stalk EJ and ruin my plans." He gestures to Jeff, who holds his hands up defensively.

"Hey don't look at me! I was just taking Smile for a walk and he picked up Cody's scent!" Jeff replies defensively, gesturing at his pet hellhound. Smile looks almost offended at the accusation. Liu laughs a bit.

"Sure bro, I believe you." He murmurs, turning and walking toward the couch again. "So is y/n gonna meet dad?"

"Yup…"

Liu chuckles. "That's gonna be fun."

"Why is it such a big deal…?" You ask. Everyone is hyping up 'dad' so much it's- kind of unnerving. Ben leans out from behind Smile and gives you a devious grin.

"He's gonna flip his shiiiiit." He says softly. Cody huffs and strides past you.

"It's no big deal! I'm gonna go tell dad I'm here, then casually mention y/n and just- introduce them! No big deal!" He turns and looks at you. "Just- wait here, ok? I'll sort eeeeverything ou-"

As if on cue, the door behind Cody swings open. Out of it leans a gigantic, horrifying creature. It's incredibly thin and tall, with white skin. It has no face at all, just a smooth white head. It's dressed in a proper black suit, and over it...a frilly pink apron.

"Kids, dinner is ready."

Oh. So this is dad.

Cody whirls around immediately. "D-dad!" He exclaims. The creature looks surprised.

"Cody!" The creature steps out from the kitchen and walks over to Cody, yanking him into a tight hug. "Oh, it's so lovely to see you! You didn't tell us you'd be coming over! I would have gone out and bought some fresh fish for your dinner." The creature's voice is deep and elegant, but speaks exactly like a doting mother. Cody squirms in the hug and eventually gets released from it.

"Haha, yeahhh...sorry about that uh- well you see I uh-" he fidgets, the creature staring at him with nonexistent eyes. "I brought someone with me."

The creature's head snaps up and stares right at you. You gulp. "N-Now I know what you're thinking!" Cody exclaims. "I should've warned you before bringing in someone new, you guys should've put on disguises and stuff but- well it's a funny story really I was just gonna show em EJ but then Jeff and Ben were in a bush and-" the creature's head lowers, looking down at Cody. He looks over his shoulder at you, gesturing for you to come closer.

You cross the room and stand beside Cody. He takes your hand in one of his, and grips your shoulder with the other. "This...is y/n. The person I'm dating." you both stare up at him in anticipation. Cody looks worried. ‘’Dad…?’’

‘’Cody…’’ The creature’s voice is soft, and almost threatening in tone. ‘’You are...the stupidest person I have ever met!’’

‘’Ow!’’ The creature lightly smacks the top of Cody’s head. He rubs at the spot and glares up at his father. ‘’I told you, it wasn’t planned, it just happened! Calm down!’’

‘’Honestly Cody! I would have cleaned! I would have put on a good tie, made everyone dress up and put disguises on! You don’t want us scaring them!’’ the creature gestures to you, then around the general room. ‘’This place is a mess! What kind of first impression am I supposed to make in this pigsty?!’’

Cody mutters something to himself and looks at you. You gulp and look at the creature, its hand on its hips, glaring down at Cody. You force a smile and bow a bit. ‘’It’s a pleasure to meet you, sir.’’ you say gently. It stops and looks down at you, seemingly surprised.

‘’Oh dear- I’m so sorry, where are my manners?’’ the creature holds out a large, white hand. You notice a small, silver ring on its ring finger. Without hesitation, you take the hand and shake it. ‘’I’m Slender, Cody’s father. I’m so sorry you had to see this place in such a state.’’

‘’I think it’s lovely,’’ you say with a soft smile. ‘’And I think your tie is very nice.’’

Slender withdraws his hand and seems to smile despite his lack of features. ‘’Oh, so polite…’’ he murmurs, sounding like he’s fond of you already. ‘’It’s a pleasure to meet you. Cody told us all about you.’’ he laughs gently. ‘’You’re even prettier than how he described you!’’

You smile nervously and laugh a bit. ‘’Oh- well thank you, sir.’’

He shakes his head. ‘’Please, just call me Slender, dear. No need for formalities. You’re family.’’ Slender clasps his hands together and tilts his head at you. ‘’You two must be staying for dinner, yes?’’

‘’Uh- actually we ate befo-’’ Cody tries to cut in, but Slender has already taken your wrist in his hand.

‘’Great! You like beef, I assume?’’ he asks. You force a polite smile and nod. Slender pushes open the kitchen door and pulls you inside. ‘’Jack, we have a guest!’’

The second you step into the kitchen, your eyes go to the one person sitting at the kitchen table. They’re wearing a grey crop top, bandages around their hands and torso and feathered shoulder pads. Their sleeves, socks and cone shaped nose are all striped black and white. They turn and look at you.

‘’Eh?’’ the...clown? You assume they’re a clown- squints.

‘’Jack, dear, this is y/n! Cody’s partner!’’ Slender gestures to you enthusiastically.

‘’It’s a pleasu-’’ before you have a chance to properly greet the strange clown man, he climbs off his chair and quickly walks over to you. Jack leans down, sticking his face right into yours. You stumble back, only to be caught by Cody as he’s entering the room. You force a polite smile. ‘’H-Hi?’’

"...so ye're Cody's da'e, eh?"

You nod. "Yes sir."

"...ye scared 'f clowns, kiddo?"

"Only ones with cockney accents." You say. Jack's stern expression softens and turns into a grin. He stands back up and laughs loudly.

"I like this one!" He cries. Slender laughs gently above you. Jack grabs your wrist, much like Slender did, and yanks you. "C'mon, take a sea'. Yous're stayin' fer dinner, ain'tcha?"

You can't understand half the things Jack is saying because of his unbelievably thick accent, but you just smile and nod as you take a seat. Cody sits down next to you. You reach over and give his hand a reassuring squeeze while the others sit down. The kitchen table is huge- how many people live here?

"So yous two're livin' t'gether?" Jack asks. You nod.

"Yeah, on campus. I'm studying chemical engineering."

"So you're both scientists," you hear Slender say. You look over your shoulder and see him tending to a large metal pot by the stove. Behind him, more of the black tendrils you saw earlier are pouring dog food into a large bowl for Smile. "That's wonderful."

"And ye're smar'. Tha's real good." Jack adds, looking at you like he's examining you. Cody rolls his eyes.

"Ignore them, they're old fashioned and still think I need their permission to date." He mutters. Jack laughs.

"Well we like y/n, so yous don' 'ave ta worry abou' bein' broken apar'." He winks at you and grins. Cody sighs.

"Hey Slender," Liu speaks up. "Where's Tim? He'll wanna see Cody I'm sure," you notice he, Jeff and Ben all have sly smiles on their faces. "And meet y/n."

You glance at Cody. He looks pale, panicky. You frown. "Oh, he went out to get his prescriptions and some other things. I'm sure he'll be home soon." Slender replies like nothing is wrong. Cody looks like he really, really doesn't want to be here.

"Who's Tim?" You ask quietly. Cody gulps.

"He's-" he's interrupted by the sound of the front door opening and closing. His head snaps to the kitchen door. He looks utterly horrified.

You wait in silent anticipation for whoever it is. Your mind is racing. Tim must be terrifying if Cody is scared of him. You're picturing someone large, muscular, with eyes that can bore straight through you. Someone who would crush a man's skull without hesitation. Someone who-

"Hey guys." The kitchen door opens and in walks a short, stocky man with black hair, sideburns and stubble. He's wearing an old flannel shirt, and holding a paper bag in one hand. He walks past the table, not really giving anybody a second glance.

"Hi Tim." The other kids chorus.

Oh. This is Tim. He doesn't look bad- he seems quite friendly. You watch him set the bag down on the kitchen island and rummage through it.

"Slender, I got a couple of the things you mentioned we needed," he says. "And also a box of donuts, for later." He turns and smiles at the table. His eyes finally fall on you and he blinks, then smiles a small bit. "Oh hey. Who's the newbie?" He glances at Jack for explanation. The clown grins. Before he can answer though, Cody shoots up out of his seat and whirls around.

"H-Heeeey Tim." He sounds like he's trying so hard to be cheerful, and it isn't working at all. Tim gives Cody a surprised smile.

"Hey kid," He tilts his head and walks toward Cody. "I didn't know you were comin' over."

"Heheh- yeah it wasn't uh- wasn't planned-" Cody fidgets nervously. Tim glances at you again. He can probably tell you and Cody are connected. ‘’How have you been? It’s been a while eheh-’’

‘’Good…’’ Tim folds his arms, tilting his head. ‘’Who’s your friend?’’ he nods at you

Cody gulps and glances at you before looking at Tim again. ‘’This is...y/n. My uh- partner.’’

Tim’s eyes widen almost comically. His head snaps to you and he stares. You gulp. Oh. Oh. Tim suddenly doesn’t look friendly anymore, he looks like he could crush a man’s skull without hesitation.

‘’...oh.’’

‘’Is that okay?’’

Tim shrugs. ‘’Yeah, yeah, perfectly fine. Of course that’s fine. Why wouldn’t it be fine?’’ his tone of voice tells you nothing is fine. Slender laughs gently like none of this is awkward or weird.

‘’Calm down Tim. y/n is very nice! They’re smart, they’re funny, they-’’

‘’They made Cody move in with them without even talking to us first.’’ Tim cuts in. Cody whines.

‘’It wasn’t like I had a choice! They didn’t even know about you all until less than an hour ago!’’

‘’Oh, thanks Cody, good to know you care about me.’’

‘’Oh my gooood-!’’ Cody slams his face into his hands. ‘’This is why I only wanted y/n to meet EJ…’’

Before Tim can give another angry retort, Slender puts a hand on his shoulder. ‘’Tim, why don’t you sit down?’’ he says gently. Tim glares at him like he killed his loved ones before sitting down. Cody sits between you two, keeping you safe from Tim’s wrath. Slender puts a large plate in front of you. It’s loaded with mashed potatoes, corn, carrots and meat of some kind. You grab your fork and cut the meat off the small bone it’s attached to. It looks to be ribs of some kind. You cut the meat in half, and take a bite.

The taste is unlike anything you’ve ever had before. It’s definitely beef, but the flavor is almost overwhelming. It melts in your mouth and covers your lips in a glaze of grease and leftover sauce. The sauce is tangy and rich, and very faintly you can taste wine. ‘’Mmmm-!’’

Your involuntary hum of delight is followed by laughter from around the table. Except for Tim, who rolls his eyes and mutters something about table manners. Slender laughs and pats your head. ‘’Eat as much as you’d like, pet. There’s plenty to go around.’’

You smile a bit and keep eating. Even if you had food before coming here, you’re definitely not letting any of this go to waste. It goes silent as you all eat. Even Tim has calmed down. Just as you’re finishing off the deliciously sweet carrots, Slender speaks up again. ‘’So y/n, how much longer will you be in college?’’

‘’Oh uh-’’ you shrug. ‘’I have finals in a couple months, then I’ll only have my final year left.’’ you smile at him. He nods.

‘’I see...a year should be long enough.’’

‘’Long enough for what…?’’ you frown and tilt your head.

‘’To put your room together of course!’’ Slender chirps. Cody starts choking on corn next to you. ‘’After college you’ll probably be moving out of your dorm, and we have plenty of room here. You are family after all.’’

‘’D-dad-!’’ Cody speaks up next to you. ‘’Me and y/n haven’t even talked about that- wh-what if they wanna live outside with like- y’know- normal people?’’

‘’We are normal people, Cody.’’ Slender retorts.

‘’G-guys-’’ you cut in before a fight can begin at the dinner table. You smile at Slender. ‘’I’m flattered at the offer- that’s very kind of you. We’ll think it over,’’ you glance at Cody. ‘’Right babe?’’

‘’Don’t call him that.’’ Tim cuts in. Cody rolls his eyes, but gives you a nod.

‘’Sure.’’

‘’So ‘ow long exac’ly ‘ave you’s been’ da’in’?’’ Jack asks.

‘’Oh uh- a couple months. We’ve known each other a while,’’ you smile. ‘’It’s a funny story really, the first time I met him was in the campus library. We reached for the same book at the same time.’’ you glance at Cody and smirk.

‘’Tha’s real cheesy.’’ Jack murmurs.

‘’But it’s sweet,’’ Slender adds. ‘’Makes me remember the first time we met…’’ his face flushes a grey colour. Jack laughs gently and squeezes his hand. Cody rolls his eyes.

‘’Speakin’ of me an’ Slen,’’ the clown looks at you. ‘’When’s th’ weddin’?’’

‘’DAD-!’’ Cody yelps.

‘’There isn’t gonna be one if I have anything to say about it.’’ Tim mutters. You gulp. Oh. The faceless monster wants you to marry his son. You fidget nervously and look to Cody for help.

‘’We haven’t- we haven’t even thought about that yet!’’ he yelps, sounding as embarrassed as you feel. ‘’I mean- what’s next, you’re gonna ask me for grandkids?!’’

‘’We were planning that yes.’’ Slender doesn’t even sound like he’s joking. ‘’We can convert one of the spare rooms into a nursery! We might have to move someone to a different floor though…’’

Tim glares at you from behind Cody. ‘’Touch him and you die.’’

‘’I know this lovely place by Lake Charles where we could hold the wedding. Me and Jack got married there back in ‘98, you remember that don’t you dear?’’ he glances at Jack.

‘’I remember th’ dress…’’ Jack smiles fondly. You’re- not even going to question that. Cody sighs.

‘’We’ll think about it…’’ he mutters. Clearly, he’s given up. ‘’But no grandkids! Not yet!’’

"Fine. But I'm still putting the baby name books in your room. They're taking up too much space in my office anyway."

Cody rolls his eyes and sits back in his seat with a huff. He reaches over and grabs your wrist. "May we be excused?"

"You're done eating?" Slender glances at both your plates.

"We'll take the leftovers home." Cody responds quickly. Slender sighs and nods.

"You may."

Cody pulls you up out of your seat and towards the backdoor. The two of you step out into the backyard. It's starting to get dark now, and a chilly breeze blows past you both. Cody sighs gently and leans against the wall, rubbing at his face tiredly.

"You okay?" You ask gently. He nods.

"Yeah just-" he purses his lips, frustrated. "I'm sorry my family's so...weird. I really wanted you to like them and have a good first impression of everybody."

You tilt your head. "I do like them."

He looks up at you. "...you do?" He frowns. "They're not- y'know- weird? You aren't freaking out?"

"Oh no they're super weird and I'm definitely freaking out I mean- you have three dads and one of them is a clown, not to mention Tim is fucking terrifying but-" you pause and smile at him. "They're really nice people...and they love you, just as much as I do." You move closer to him. "Plus...they already consider me family so- I don't think I have a choice but to like them."

Cody stares at you for a moment, then cracks a smile. He laughs gently, relieved. "...thank fuck." He murmurs with a smile. He holds out an arm. "C'mere."

You move over to him and rest against him, letting him hug you. You snuggle up against his chest. He feels warm, and safe. His lips brush against the top of your head. "I love you." He murmurs. "I'm...glad you like them."

It's quiet then. Just the two of you enjoying the warmth of the moment.

"Ey, luv birds." Aaand it's been interrupted. You look up and over at LJ, leaning out the backdoor. "Slen wants ta know if yous're stayin' th' nigh'." He gives you both a sly smile. Cody exhales softly and looks down at you, cocking a brow to ask what you wanna do. You smile up at him.

"Sure pops. I guess we could stay."

Hello! It's my first time asking a question related to sexuality so bear with me 🙏🙏 So about 2 weeks ago i found out that i identify with biromantic demisexual. But after reflecting a bit more, im not too sure again. whether i identify demi romantically or sexually. Tho i am totally bi (if that makes sense?). I've had many crushes (or was it squishes?) tho there were only a few that I'd really like to have a relationship/deeper connection with. (1/?)

Rn im like attracted to an aro friend of mine, but im scared to let her know about this. I dont want to jeopardize our friendship (we recently got to know each other more than a month ago) so lm kinda confused to what i am really feeling now. (2/2)

So I just wanted to let you know that you send the second part of this ask in while not anonymous, but I’m answering it here since I’m assuming this is how you wanted it answered. If you would prefer it to be private, dm me and I’ll take this post down and then we can talk there!

Broadly speaking, there’s a lot of overlap between by and aspec identities, which is why the communities have, historically speaking, been very closely tied. Many, many bi people used to identify as ace/aro and vice versa, by virtue of attraction (or lack thereof) being mostly the same towards all genders. It makes complete sense to me that you would bi, but also possibly demiromantic and/or demisexual.

For me, personally, I don’t differentiate between sexual and romantic attraction, which is pretty common among a lot of people. Sure, there are plenty of people allo people might be sexually attracted to, but not date. Generally speaking, however, allo people tend to date only those they find sexually attractive, and it’s a given for many relationships that romance and sex are intertwined. So when I say that I’m demisexual, that doesn’t necessarily preclude me from being demiromantic simply because I don’t make a distinction between the two in my mind. So you can be bi and also demiromantic and demisexual at the same time if you think similar to me. Obviously, for those that do like to make/feel a distinction between sexual and romantic attraction, that’s totally fine!

In regards to your aro friend, you might want to see what they’re comfortable with, romance wise. To most of my friends, I’m out as ace, but, of course, I’m actually demi. It’s possible that your aro friend is gray-aro or demiromantic or something else. It’s also possible that your aro friend wants to have a queer platonic relationship (QPR). Now, a lot of people think that a QPR is simply being “best friends,” but it actually goes a lot deeper than that. I have a best friend, and we live in different cities, and we talk sometimes, and while I might seek her advice or input on something, I would never structure my life under the assumption that it needs to fit hers. Even though I love her to death. Queer platonic partners is like dating without the romance. You would make decisions together, like a couple in a committed, if new, relationship would. Like, if you change suddenly change jobs or want to move to a new apartment or adopt a cat or go on a impromptu vacation for the weekend, generally you need to discuss those types of things with your partner to make sure everyone is on the same page. You don’t usually need to discuss it with your friends before hand, except to mention that it’s already happening and you just want them to be aware. If you do want to have something deeper with your aro friend, and they are aromantic and not gray-aro, demi aro, or anything else, than it might be worth it to see how they feel about having a QPR.

Anyway! I hope this helped! And good luck with your friend. Even if all you two do is remain friends, you sound like a really awesome friend to have.

MUN QUESTIONS.

Q1: IF YOU COULD WRITE YOUR CHARACTER YOUR WAY IN THEIR OWN MOVIE, WHAT WOULD IT BE CALLED, WHAT STYLE WOULD IT BE FILMED IN, AND WHAT WOULD IT BE ABOUT?:

Q2: WHAT WOULD THEIR SOUNDTRACK / SCORE SOUND LIKE?:

Q3: WHY DID YOU START WRITING THIS CHARACTER?:

A long time before Luke. I think I started her character in game for like... one or two years ago but I only added her in this blog after Luke since I wanna revive her and see what I can do with the small identity I gave her before I mained Luke.

Q4: WHAT FIRST ATTRACTED YOU TO THIS CHARACTER?:

As I played her, in my head, she seems to be a very upbeat and obliging person when asked for help - probably because she hates doing nothing too. And that I feel she has a sisterly vibe too. I also like how she can be at ease with people and has her own social grace, really loves chatting and listening to others. Man, I wish I had half the energy that she has.

Q5: DESCRIBE THE BIGGEST THING YOU DISLIKE ABOUT YOUR MUSE:

Hmmm, it’s the competitive part, probably. I don’t really like competitions myself and I’m a very, very low key person.

Q6: WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN COMMON WITH YOUR MUSE?:

The fact that we’re both girls ?? lmao. We’re kinda like polar opposites, to be honest - but that’s what makes it fun for me to write her. I guess one of the common things I have with her is we like to settle and resolves things quickly and then move on rather than beat around the bush, complicate things and drag it on and on. We don’t hold grudges either.

Q7: HOW DOES YOUR MUSE FEEL ABOUT YOU?:

Probably feels that I should get my ass off my room from time to time. And maybe stop trying to shorten my own lifespan with my cooking. Man,,,,,, she does not agree with what I throw into the wok. She’s friendly though so she still feels pretty okay with me.

Q8: WHAT CHARACTERS DOES YOUR MUSE HAVE INTERESTING INTERACTIONS WITH?

With my other muse, Laipheaux ( man, he is famous with my two muses, huh ). They have a friendly rivalry, mostly due to the fact that they can’t fully understand each others’ behavior well but still able to feel a sort of caring vibe from the other. Laiph didn’t think so at first until he realizes that Estelle still gave him birthday presents like she do with everyone else and left the grand company in girdania for reasons involving him too.Estelle, though she doesn’t read too much into things, acted with Laiph pretty much like she does with friends and didn’t have the same thought process about their relationship like he does. Though they used to roughhouse a lot, they’re much more calmer with each other ( at times, yeah ).

Q9: WHAT GIVES YOU INSPIRATION TO WRITE YOUR MUSE?:

Like in Luke’s answer sheet, my love for the game. Also that I really wanted to start writing female characters who aren’t outright tough and badass like Merlwyb. Sort of trying to exit my comfort zone and see how I can have fun trying new things. Estelle is still a strong character in her own right though, but has a sort of sisterly / motherly vibe ??

Q10: HOW LONG DID THIS TAKE YOU TO COMPLETE?:

Faster than Luke’s page now that I know how this works lol

#☆ ❜ MORE INFO / ESTELLE → level up !!#laiph is next!

Match-up submitted by totally-not-a-weirdo

i’d love to get a match-up from harry potter, hetalia, voltron and mystic messenger, if it isn’t too many fandoms! and i’m sorry for any mistakes in my description!

(Note: The actual match ups start after the page break!)

APPEARANCE:

- i’m rather slim and tall (5’ 6.6"), but i like walking in heels, so i can look at almost everyone from above. i’m also pale (sometimes nearly white) what looks great with my golden, medium hair (ah, modesty, where are you) which pretty often are curly (they’re naturally straight, but i prefer them in a curly version). i’m blushing for most time of my life, but not because it’s easy to embarrass me (it’s very hard an actually). it’s just… everytime when i’m smiling, laughing or i’m excited my cheeks (and nose) start to blush and i can’t really help it. i don’t have precised style of clothing, everything depends on my mood or situation, but i truly enjoy clothes (especially dresses and skirts) from 40s, 50s.

PERSONALITY:

- some people call me a sunshine, probably because of my happy attiude and just being a good person. i also love helping others (welp, my dream is being a psychologist, so) and make them happy, so if anyone has a problem, i’m always there for them. i’m rather patient and i’m a good listener, i’m trying advise them well and make them feel better. and i guess i’m good at it.

- laughing, i just love to laugh. my sense of humour is a mix of black and ironic humour, vines, memes, pick-up lines, so not everyone understand my jokes, but at least my and my friends have a good fun!

- i’m scatterbrained af, everyone can confirm that. i often forget to do something or i forget a word and my sentence doesn’t make sense and sometimes i don’t even notice my mistakes. i wasn’t born in city and i don’t visit any of them too often, so i’m pretty lost when i’m coming there; schedules of anythings are black magic for me, so i prefer going with someone more responsible than me.

- i’m quite confident i guess; even if i seem like a one, big extrovert (but i would call myself ambivert better; it’s like 40% of introversion and 60% of extraversion), the true is that most of my friends are introverts (still don’t know how and why), so if i see they’re feeling too troubled to ask someone about anything, i do it for them. sometimes i’m also leader of some groups, however i don’t mind it; i wouldn’t say that i’m a born leader, but i’m also not bad that much, i speak loudly and i always make sure that everyone is listening to me. my self-esteem for sure isn’t low, even if sometimes i have got my worse days, i don’t let them take over me.

- even if i seem like a someone confident, i’m often surprisingly awkward when it comes to meeting new people. like, i’m trying to be positive and confident, but my nervousness is pretty visible and it’s annoying me, but i can’t help it. so i’m truly thankful if someone talks to me first and is more confident than me; then for sure i won’t let him feel awkward too and i’ll try my best to be a good conversionalist!

- i love to discuss with other people, learn about someone’s point of view, exchanging opinions and beliefs. sometimes i can talk literaly for hours (as long as my conversionalist will respect me and my opinion at least). i’ve heard many times that i’m really open-minded and mature, because my vocabulary is more advanced than the rest of my peers. and well, i guess that’s true, because i read a lots of books (my favourite literary genres are probably autobiographies, dramas and historical books) since i was young and i’ve also written stories on my own, but for now, i simply can’t do it. it’s because of lack of afflatus, i have many ideas but i can’t realise them, eh.

- independence, oh independence~! it means a lot to me. really a lot. i hate when someone thinks that i’m their property and they can command me what can i do and what can’t i do. i usually very easily cut my ties with that person, because their behavior simply makes me feel sick. but also it depends. i’m very understanding so if i know this jealous person very well and i know that they truly care about me, i would try to help them somehow with their flaw. i really appreciate when someone jealous try to restrain themselves from being possesive and i will make sure to praise them for that.

- unfortunately, i’m a lazy ass and i’m quitter. i’d love to try many things, write many stories (yup, i’m a writer) but i often give up too fast; also, most of my friends are like me, so (again) unfortunately, i don’t have someone who would kick my ass when i’m too lazy to do something. motivating me isn’t too hard tho, i just need someone who would keep an eye on me (i’m such a big kid, grrr).

- i’m tolerant and understanding af. i don’t have any problem with someone who is different than rest of society (trans, non-hetero, non-catholic people, anyone and anything, really); duh, i respect and i simply love people like that! they fascinate me, i want to know more about them, i want to understand them. maybe because of that, that i’m also not like the rest of society; my thoughts about everything aren’t typical for sure. i easily forgive. very easily. too easily. no matter how much you hurt me, i just can’t be mad at you too long. everyone says that it’s a good quality, but sometimes i feel like i don’t have pride because of that, that i don’t know my own worth and i am pathetic (haha, tragic backstory, welcome).

- many people see me like a social, carefree and confident person, so they’re always surprised when they find out that i was bullied, because i don’t remind typical victim of bullying. maybe because i wasn’t so lonly and i had ‘friends’ (even if they never defended me, but they were still by my side, so) and maybe my bullying wasn’t too extreme; just some insults for a few years but it was enough to ruin my self-esteem and my confidence. because when i was younger i was full extrovert, i could make new friends very easily with everyone, i was truly a sunshine. now i’m only a ray of sunshine; i have problems with making new friends, i hate and i am even a little bit afraid passing by group of boys (because it were boys who bullied me). i lost a lots of my old attiude and sometimes i miss this ease of making new friends and adapting to new community, but these years of bullying also learned me a lot of empathy towards other, being observant and somehow, thanks to that i was able to made a lots of new friends on the internet who really helped me durning this hard time. i learned a lots of things and even if i wish that some things would be easier, i’m proud of this who i am now.

FACTS:

- i don’t like describing myself as a hetero, homo, be or whatever, especially when i’ve never fallen in love with anyone. indetify yourself as a full homo/hetero/bi is a little bit unreasonable i think. like, you don’t know what the future holds and you can’t be completly sure that you won’t fall in love with someone the same/opposite gender. life is one big surprise, so. but i think that i could be demiromantic and demisexual/asexual, but it’s only mine assumption. since i’m tolerant, i don’t care what gender will be my future partner, as long as they will be a good person.

- i’m ticlish and general, touch-sensitive, especially on my belly. and arms.

- i’m rather chilly person (expect summer), my hands are cold af and when everyone doesn’t complain about temperature and they’re pretty neutral, i almost always wear my leather jacket, because for me it isn’t warm enough (and here’s the other reason why i love lean on other people so much; i can steal their body heat~). but if someone say that he’s/she’s cold, i give them my jacket althought i’m also freezing. but tbh, my body temperature is really complicated, because when i’m at home and it isn’t too warm, i could normally walking in underwear, when others complain about coldness. idk how my body works, really.

- i’m a toucher, but not in a sexual way (for most of time at least). i just truly love to have physical contact with people i care about; i like to hold their hands or lean on them, hug them. it makes me very happy, relaxed and it’s a sooooo comfortable~! ♥ but i understand when someone isn’t too comfortable with so much affection and i’m not that clingy towards them even if i really want to.

- many people think that i never cry, even my friends, because durning so many years of our friendship they have never seen me crying and i hope it will be this way. it’s not like i don’t trust them or anything; in fact i trust them very much. i just hate crying in front of anyone, it makes me feel pathetic and weak, so i cry when no one looks, but i’m not sure if my “cry” could be called crying. because of many reasons, i get used to cry silently; i just let my tears run down my face for a few minutes and then i can easily settle down, so it’s hard to see if i was really crying, because my eyes aren’t even swollen. but idk why, after my “crying”,

INTERESTS:

- linguistic (i love talking and traveling, so languages are very helpful, for now i speak polish (but it’s my native language so), english (rather fluently, idk), i understand russian very well since it’s similiar to polish, but i’m trying to improve, because i’m still not good at it).

- psychology, i love helping people and i hope i will be able to do it in the future. one of my friends have got a mental problems and they go to the psychologist for a few years now, but it isn’t getting better, no matter how many times they changed psychologist, they couldn’t find someone who could help them. and it makes me so freaking frustrated that either psychologist or i can’t help them. but i truly hope that i will be a good psychologist, able to help anyone who needs me.

- reading and writing (it’s kinda sad but i’ve never written any good romance although i tried. my stories always were filled with magic (harry potter bish), darkness and a lots of action and i simply didn’t have a time to write a good romance, so i created some fleeting flirts to satisfied my readers, hah)

- writing letters (i’ve got some friends from other countries and we send each other letters about ourselves; it’s really great fun and experience)

- volleyball and physical activity (i love playing volleyball, it’s the only sport i’m getting involved that much. sometimes i spend with my bro hours on playing, but i’m still not enough and i wanna more. i even tried to create female’s volleyball club, but unfortunately, there weren’t enough girls who wanted to play, so club didn’t last. i tried reactivate it twice, but i failed every time. now i try don’t think too much about volleyball, because i don’t want to disappoint myself again), i also like vintage and folklore.

WHAT MY FRIENDS THINK OF ME:

“from what i see, sometimes you worry too much about everything and you often get excited about something, you want to do it, but in the end, you don’t do it. also, you’re empathetic af. you’re very helpful, kind and you seem like you want to make everyone happy and you don’t have someone you truly hate. there’s something about you that makes unbosoming to you very easy; when i want to ask you about something, i’m not afraid that you will give me bad advice or you will think something bad about me”

“my frist impression about her? well, i thought that she was a really, like really friendly person. furthermore, open-minded, funny, motivated and full of attitude for life. she seemed like a someone very popular, someone unreachable for me, because she had a lots of friends. and was it only impression? nope. when i got to know her better, she still was very kind girl, who willingly wants to help other people. she can truly boost someone’s self-esteem and compliment them in a very uniqe way. she’s an observer, she easily sees someone’s good and bad qualities. she’s inspiring; her open-mindedness, her self-esteem. it’s impossible to not admire her. when you look at or talk with her, you want to be better person and love yourself more. just like kise from knb, she’s very independent; you better not try to tie her down. she’s also very funny and tolerant, she never exclude anyone.”

“i think you’re really stubborn, you always have opinion about everything and you aren’t afraid to say it out loud, what can be seem like a good or bad quality. you’re also really open and you never judge people by apperance, but by their actions and it’s very good. just like your desire to helping people, but sometimes i get the feeling that you focus too much on the one person and you don’t notice someone with even bigger problem, who hide their problems behind the ’'mask”. but i appreciate that when it starts making uncomfortable, you’re always trying to lighten up atmosphere with some funny joke. also, i really like your advanced voculabry and that, that you’re this type of person who inspire to being better human, not worse"

Match Ups-

Harry Potter: Remus Lupin!

- Remus would be really drawn to someone who is happy and confident, since he’s pretty shy in general, and he needs someone to bring him out of his shell a little.

-He’s a really organized person too, so he’d definitely be willing to help make sure you remember everything and keep a pretty decent schedule.

-He’s also pretty well-rounded and smart, so he’d be all for having long discussions on different topics with you too!

- Being open-minded is a big factor too, obviously, since Remus is a werewolf and therefore needs someone who can handle that. Being understanding and kind to him would make a world of difference to him.

Hetalia: Alfred F. Jones (APH America)

-Would love to be around you because of your bright personality, and also your sense of humor (he could quote vines all day).

-Since he’s pretty extroverted too, he could help with meeting new people, because he wouldn’t mind starting up the conversation and you jumping in later since he knows you’re a little nervous about that.

-He’s not a big fan of giving up, especially on something someone’s passionate about, so he’d really encourage you to keep writing.

-Alfred’s pretty clingy too, so he would have no problem with you being touchy either!

Voltron: Prince Lotor

-With all of the things Lotor has had to go through in his life, he needs someone kind and compassionate to be around him, since he hasn’t really seen a lot of that in his life, and it would make him a better person.

-He is also interested in psychology, since it was a good topic to know about when planning tactics, so he’d love that he could talk to someone else about it.

-Although he would be protective of you, he would be very aware of giving you your own space, since he’s had to deal with that in the past.

-You being sweet and friendly would probably make the members of Voltron a lot more trusting of you, and therefore him as well, so you two would have a good relationship with all of them too.

Mystic Messenger: Jaehee Kang

-Jaehee has a ton of stressful days, so going to see someone so positive and good at listening would always make her feel better. This would really draw her closer to you!

-If you are really serious about writing something consistently, she’d always be there to help you make a schedule and help you stick to it. She might even get things like your favorite foods or little presents on certain days if you reach your writing goal!

-She would also like having thoughtful conversations with you, and would always love to learn something new, so she’d love to listen to your interests in linguists and other subjects.

-If you told her, she’d try to be really aware of what the crowds were like when you two go out anywhere, so you don’t have to walk by any large groups that would make you nervous, but she wouldn’t outright say she was doing it for your sake because she’d get embarrassed.

In-depth profile, J’lihmu Rhatni

First of all - this ain’t mine, stole it from http://subetei-noykin.tumblr.com/ so go credit this good lizard bean!

*edit cause i forgot to put that on there oops ™

IDENTIFICATION —

“Battle-scarred down to the bone

Falling, failing to believe

Living in so much despair

With no hope of release”

Full Name: J’lihmu Rhatni, also known as J’lihmu of the Earth

Pronunciation: Jah-lee-muh Rat-nee

Pseudonym: N/A

Nicknames: Red, Li, that one crazy axe-lady ™

Age: Twenty-five cycles

Name Day: 19th of the 3rd Astral Moon

Birthplace: Gyr Abania, Abalathia’s Spine

Guardian: Oschon, The Wanderer

Residence: Gridania, The Lavender Beds/ Nomadic mostly.

REFERENCES —

Motto: “If you aren’t willing to risk your life for it, don’t bother.”

Theme Song: Anger of the Earth

Face Claim: N/A

STATS —

Gender: Female

Race: Miqo’te, Seeker of the Sun/Elezen (Wildwood)

Height: Five feet

Weight: One hundred and twenty-seven pounds

Eyes: Almost always narrowed but when they’re not, they’re big eyes. Right eye has a nasty scar but she’s still (somehow) able to see through it.

Hair: Originally very long, almost to her back but cut it off and kept it to her mid back -- after the battle with Zenos (in her Wol! route) she lost most of her hair and has kept it rather short since then.

Skin: Tanned from her days in the sun, mining away.

Build: Toned from her many adventures, as well as exercising when she finds the time.

Scars: Ugly one going from her right eye down to her cheek, two on the right side of her neck. Left arm has mostly small scars/gashes. Her back has an ugly one that’s covered by a tattoo; from her right shoulder down to her left hip.

Tattoos/Marks: Has various tattoos on her. Left arm has a tattoo very similar to the woad tank outfit, and the one covering her back is her tribe’s tattoo.

At First Glance

A Warrior: It’s easy to lose her, but it’s just as easy to spot her. If not by her yelling, or fighting, then the way she holds herself, and always ready to fight. J’lihmu gives off an aura that’s not to be messed with; usually grumpy, looking grumpy or overall seemingly annoyed. And yet not a lot of people know she’s a warrior unless they attempt to fight or woo her; the latter being more susceptible to your death than anything.But, most people would identify her immediately as: The woman with red hair*, the small woman with a big axe, and the crazy axe-wielding Miqo’te.

** Not to be confused with her close friend, Alexia Reybrant (how??????)

Scars, scars, scars: Although her outfits consist of hiding most of her scars, when she’s in the city, or simply relaxing near her home, she’d wear more revealing clothing. Tank tops, shorts; anything that lets her move around much more freely than her armored self. It shows off the majority of her scars (which are all over her body); from her first days training back at home to the most recent fight, she almost always gets a new one. If you let her, she can recall each and every one of them (mostly, if we’re being honest -- the most important ones).

Attitude: Her mouth usually gets her in trouble, and by usually -- all the time. her attitude stems from her proud heritage of being a warrior (and a curse of everyone or most people being scared of it) that she developed this ‘talk shit, get hit’ that she’s not afraid to put you in your place even if you so look at her the wrong way. Naturally, this causes problems within her group (mostly everyone keeping her from getting into fights) and overall not letting her temper get the better of her.

However, she does have a kind heart and prefers to not show it to the public. Or rather, she is the type to say something crude, or rude but still help people in need.

FACTS —

Occupation: Mercenary, Hunter, Teacher.

Specialties: Close Combat, Hunting & Gathering,

Skills: Expert Gatherer, expert at fucking your shit up ™, cooking in the wilderness

PROFICIENCY —

Education: Self-taught to an extent.

Favored Weapon(s): Axes, great-swords (still prefers axes tho)

Secondary Weapon(s): Daggers, and knives, her fists.

Magic Abilities: Berserker Rage (Innate Aether, Uncontrolled, loses control when her emotions go overboard; ie mostly anger.)

Magic Strengths: Unknown, possible but she really doesn’t care.

* Mother’s side has some mage abilities but she never really bothers to learn anything related to magic canon-wise unless related to her warrior heritage.

RELATIONS —

Sexual Preference: Demisexual

Romantic Identification: Heterosexual

Relationship Status: Mated

Sweet on: Ganbaatar Himaakahkol

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Allies: Various Mercenary and Adventurer Friends, Scions

Enemies: Various other factions, Ascians

FAMILY —

Maternal: Véronique Dzemael (Alive; Ishgard)

Parental: J’zahlu Rhatni (Alive; Abalathia’s Spine)

Mentor(s): J’zahlu Rhatni (Elder, teacher), Curious Gorge (as much as she hates him sometimes, he’s a good bean)

Associates: a lot.

Ganbaatar Himaakahkol - partner.

Alexia Reybrant - close friend.

Rhett Serris - close friend.

De’Letar Tepes - close friend.

Xoria Tepes - friend, Del’s partner.

R’athyr Astrylkir - close friend.

Jedia Reybrant - friend.

Julian Astrophel - close friend, act like they’re related.

S’hayari Chrysolite - close friend.

Nightshade Mistletoe - friend, scary blm friend.

I gotta add more but im just dflkghd;sfgk?????

Companion: Honestly she has too many but her main one is hear bear, Apollo.

MENTALITY —

Social Level: Has no issue talking but her mouth usually gets her into trouble, hence her avoiding most social interactions unless needed and/or with friends. Very open about her opinions. I’m (not) sorry.

Optimistic View(s): If there’s even the smallest spark of flame, life will continue on.

Pessimistic View(s): Once that rage wraps around you, you won’t get out alive; it’ll have you trapped there, forever.

One Positive Personality Trait: She’s very nice, more so than she lets on to most of the population in Eorzea. Li would throw herself onto a kid, or onto an old man who yelled at her and called her a ‘savage’ because he couldn’t defend himself. She believes in justice, but also tries to not let it go to her head and let other people pick on the weak and defenseless.

One Negative Personality Trait: Her anger is her biggest issue. She’s basically a bomb waiting to go off at a moment’s notice if you so insult her, her mate, her friends, or anything else she holds dear. This, in turn, comes into use of her ruthless physical strength for such a small miqo’te and usually needs to be put in check. The good thing about this is she’s been getting better at controlling her temper... not so much the need to want to murder someone for being absolutely stupid, however.

TV Trope: Tsundere mom??????? new trope: Tsundere Warrior mom????

·One Personality Warning: Do not take her trust for granted, or for letting you in. She’s the type to hold grudges, and will not rest until you’re dead, or in another continent. Li has the hardest time trusting someone and letting them in, she just considers them outsiders willing to leave at a moment’s notice. That changed, after awhile, but she is still very much wary of people outside of her circle.

Random Quirk: Ears wiggle/twitch when her mate is around, as well as when Apollo wants play-time.

Hobbies: Sparring with her friends, as well as her mate, riding her bear, sharpening weapons and cooking in the wild.

Addictions: Fighting, Ganbaatar (doesn’t want to confirm or deny), drinking.

Habits: Accidental Intimidation, Intentional Intimidation, Swearing Every Other Word, Ears twitching in excitement

Pleasures: Good Drink, Hunting, The Outdoors, Working with Animals, Combat and Fighting, Sex, Helping people in need, The Thrill of almost dying (I’m sorry but its euphoria and she lived so she’s gonna fucK)

Appreciates (List 5+)

Humor Craftsmanship (weapons are gr8) Strength Honesty Commitment Self-Control Accomplishment Skill

Dislikes (List 5+)

Defeatism Lies Losing control Ice - bad time in Ishgard timeline tm *Odant Dzemael - husband of Véronique, father of Arrent and Adraux. X’mhama* (’kinda rude almost takin’ my eye out, don’t cha think?’)

Strengths (List 5+)

Honest Loyal Hardworking Dedicated Independent Trustworthy Really likes helping people even if she doesn’t want anyone to know

Weaknesses (List 5+)

Berserk Easy to break Trust Has difficulty in letting people in Difficulty in opening up Temper issues Hunger for violence and blood Has a strong sense of wanting revenge Easily loses herself to the Inner Beast Her mother* (As much as she hates her, she can’t... blame her.) Her half-siblings*

Fears (List 5+)

Dying at the hands of X’mhama. Losing Ganbaatar. Losing herself to the Inner Beast. Dying before her revenge comes to fruition. Her mother being tied into her messes. Her half-siblings brought into her messes.

FAVORITES ––

Favorite Food(s): Antelope Stew, Shepherd’s Pie.

Favorite Drink(s): Rum, Water, Coffee.

Favorite Scent(s): Dry earth, or when the water hits the earth, sweet smells but not too sweet that overwhelms the sense, her mate’s scent.

Favorite Colors: Gold, red, blue, and black.

TRIVIA ––

J’lihmu is tied up in messes that shouldn’t really matter to her, but, the two messes she has that are connected to her -- well, she runs away from her problems. At least one of them.

The one she tackles head on is her childhood friend, X’mhama. They were the best of friends; family, even! They sparred, ate, bathe, and basically breathe together as one. Until one day, he broke every trust within their village and attacked J’lihmu when they were out gathering. Almost took out her eye in the process, almost left her for death but decided to leave her on the ground and continue on towards the village.

She never knew what set him off, but once she was able to stubbornly end up towards her tribe’s villages, she found most members bruised, killed, or knocked out. Her father was also injured; he was caught off-guard in the process but he sustained minor wounds compared to the other elders in the village. However, he took one of the villager’s most prized weapon and armor - and he was only 18 summers young.

Without giving too much info, that’s basically what set her life into motion: revenge. No one knew how she survived with such an ugly scar and yet her eye remains usable - but she will lose sight of it at some point, she just doesn’t know it, yet.

Her other problem she refuses to acknowledge or get help is her family drama. J’lihmu was born out of a noble woman’s womb who was in love with her own father, but could not be together.

She’s surprised she even lived in the first place, once she asked her father about it. He didn’t go too deep in the details, but she knows her mother’s of noble birth, elezen, with the same hair as J’lihmu’s, as well as her mother’s eyes. “Green eyes, and crimson flames. That’s your mother.”

Yet -- she kinda hates her? More so cause her own father kinda won’t stop talking about her -- until he did at one point -- and then she was already off on her adventures. And she also got out of Zahlu is that Véronique lives in Ishgard -- much to her dismay once she’s in Ishgard.

Luckily at that point in Heavensward, she never met her mother. Only after Stormblood, once she’s helping around the cities and helping Ala Mhigans back to their home is where things start to get a little ‘family dramatic’ for her.

TLDR Li: save me fam ___

Drusus is her chocobo’s name. Has an odder otter name Pearl. Pearl likes pets and clams.

Adristus is her Hunting Hawk’s name, kinda bratty; hates everyone not Li.

The names listed in her weakness like Veronique, Ordant, X’mhama and the like are NPC’s mostly from my own story thing. Not actual rpers role-playing these people. (i wish) Gan’s real, he’s just a nerd.

OOC -

Server: Cactuar

Timezone: EST

Mun: Female/24

Experience: Roleplay experience for like 10 years or someshit. I can write in whatever form you wish, I do like paragraphs. English isn’t my first language so I apologize for any odd structuring.

Type of RP: Any/All, Mature and R-Rated themes included. Long-term Storylines or One-shot scenes. I enjoy interacting with people oocly as much as I like their characters icly too! Just.. super shy butt about it. And by mature I mostly mean violent ones -- she’s taken after all!

Looking for: Friends, partner’s in crime, mining buddies, drinkin’ buddies, sparring buddies (always up for some) and other fellow adventurers, mercs,and the like. I’m p much open for anything.

#the trivia is me rambling at how much family drama she has as well as her old childhood ex friend being a cuck and almost taking her eye #why do you think shes angry all the time #altho having good bean friends like those up there have made her tolerable #and her mate is such a sweetie to her so she's kinda also sweet on him too #HELLFIRE;#prompt;#this is long and in a read more :3c
