I was just thinking about how in care bears unlock the magic they give Bedtime the night shift in the caring control tower (he mentions it in the first episode) maybe because he works better at night and it fits his sleep pattern better and it's kind of nice to think of it as them accomodating his sleep schedule

tw// mentions of csa, sa, radfem, f-slur
(sorry, this is v rambly but i’ve never really told anyone abt this so i’m still gathering my thoughts)
so i suppose i could share my perspective/experience with being amab transmasc; i feel a sense of connection with the label is because so much of my identity has been interlinked with masculinity and my connection and relationship to it evolving. that relationship has evolved physically, psychologically, emotionally, socially, and aesthetically
like ive spent far more time in transmasc circles, i’m often assumed to be transmasc based off of how i dress/talk/identify/etc (esp bc of stereotypes), plus i’ve been incredibly close with, befriended, dated, and loved many transmascs in my life.
like so much of this has connected to how i feel abt masculinity; when i was younger, i felt so alienated and avoidant of masculinity due to trauma from near-exclusively masculine people - to me, masculinity was dangerous, violent, sexual, and inherently harmful towards me. it took me years to feel safe around masculine people, to forgive myself for my fear, to embrace the masc parts of myself and not feel obligated to be feminine, to feel comfortable honouring masculine deities, to feel that i did not have to hate masculinity.
seeing transmascs was foundational for this, like seeing the confidence, gentleness, strength, and their love of their masculinity felt so affirming; like, i could see if as something to love and cherish - vs the radfem perspective that treated it as a monster to be hated and scorned. there is such a concentrated effort by radfems and terfs to make us hate masculinity, which only hurt me more. it taught me that men were inherently bad, inherently harmful, and could not change - that their base nature was to hurt me. and that scared me. i felt like there was no other option, so being exposed to this allowed me to feel safe, to believe that men can be better, are better, and are not inherently bad. radfem ideology felt like giving up, whereas transmasculinity gave me hope.
i never fell down the terf/radfem/tirf rabbitholes bc i knew their logic was reactionary and absurd, but it nonetheless affected me. seeing the way men were spoken about felt like it targeted people like me to weaponise our fear and trauma from masculine people to turn it into support for them.
being denied the ability to be masculine as a kid also affected my relationship with masculinity; while i never felt a strong connection with gender as a child (at least not in a binary way - i never saw things as man/women but rather as, simply, things), however, i was often forced to choose. and being the fem queer kid meant i was pushed away from masculinity. i was encouraged towards feminine hobbies, feminine presentation, feminine spaces - in art programs i was a soft, sensitive creative; in sports programs i was a weak faggot. as such, i felt like i never really had the choice of my gender. while i don’t regret any of the gender affirming stuff i’ve underwent (nor anything i intend to undergo), i felt like i had to. i felt like i had to.
while i don’t mind the fact that i’m feminine (like i’m pretty much always read as a girl by cis ppl), my experiences with being pressured to be feminine are inherently linked to trauma for me. i was extensively sexually abused as a child, with multiple abusers targeting me bc of my appearance, so it’s always felt to me like my body doesn’t belong to me; so being forced to be feminine, especially when that presentation was - in my mind - linked to trauma, felt like i was once again not being in control of my body, that i was just a doll to be used by anyone
when i came out to my mom, it was basically like “okay well then youre a binary woman now” - despite that not being what i came out as - so i then had to fulfill that role. i had to be feminine, hyperfeminine and cisnormative, to be treated as valid, as real. any deviation from that was punished, scolded, and looked down upon - i never got to define femininity for myself but instead had to fulfill an ever-narrowing role set out for me. i thought that coming out would’ve broadened my ability to express myself, but all it did was tighten the rigid frame of gender around me.
it especially created a struggle for me because i came out at such a young age; i knew i was non-binary from basically birth, so i had years of figuring out my own identity before i started coming out to people, which created this huge gap between how i felt/identified vs how people treated/identified me when i came out to them (this is MASSIVELY influenced by my autism as well)
while i don’t think i would ever, say, go on t or whatever else (bc, god, have i had enough of medical transitioning at this point), i feel the label of transmasc gives me freedom. it gives me the freedom to express my gender as i feel. like, genuinely, buying a binder was one of the most freeing choices i’ve ever made. while i don’t hate my chest, realising i could choose to bind is so incredibly freeing. like, the idea of transmasculine femininity has freed my expression of my gender to be whatever i want - to be androgynous, to be masculine, to be feminine, to be a masc person who presents fem, or whatever else i want it to be.
so that’s my experience
Wow, thank you so much for sharing your experience. That's so wonderful that the transmasc label could help you so much, and I'm glad you've learned to accept yourself. That is such a unique and bittersweet journey, and it's amazing you've come so far despite all of the difficult and terrible things that happened. That sucks that you went through all that, but I'm so glad you could accept yourself and your masculinity. Thanks again for sharing.
I don't know what to say, I'm bad at articulating what I'm thinking/feeling, but that was genuinely so moving. I appreciate it anon, thanks for sending in the ask.
(Side note: don't apologize for rambling! You can send in as many asks as you want and make them as long as you need /gen. The whole point of this blog is for someone to be here to listen.)

if anyone is giving you a hard time about not posting or not writing i will personally beat them up. that person doesn’t know respect or patience. and rushing someone to do something won’t make anything happen. i hope there is no pressure at all to write, art takes time. you deserve the world and adulting gets so hard and busy sometimes it’s hard to do anything you enjoy. anyways… all that being said, happy valentine’s day!! thinking of jake and a cutesy date with him hehehe;)
Nonnie, this message made me feel all of the emotions.
Thank you for being so supportive and sweet amidst some pressure from other sources! There are a few messages in my inbox that I am just choosing not to share due to a) confusion (bc they were sent in before chapter 10 and I waited too long to answer them lol) and b) being written with frustration-laced words over chapter 10 not being posted soon enough.
Your message was exactly what I needed to read. I am so grateful! Thank you, thank you <3 You are so kind and precious and I am blessed by the way you articulated this message -- YOU GET IT. Adulting is ridiculously busy anyways.
And, to make it even better, this season of my life has just been harder than most and has included a lot of literal aching depression (iykyk) and raging anxiety in my personal life (if I'm getting real honest in the chat...).
Saying that, it surely (definitely) means things have been abnormal and stressful. And naturally, when that happens, I turn to my hobbies. My hobbies that make me feel OKAY when otherwise, I don't. So, because of who I am, I write ALL THE TIME to escape reality -- I write so much that I haven't really had time to even read. (Ask anyone in my family, including @joshym...I write all the time.)
And so, I've been leaning on my hobbies -- breathing life through them (bc real life sure ain't letting me breathe enough). So of course, when I get any less-than-kind messages about not updating quickly enough, it just takes away the feeling of "okayness" in the ONE area of my life that I normally feel consistently peaceful in. I love when you guys send in things about the story or even when you ask when an update is coming... HOWEVER, the messages that are specifically targeting how I am not updating speedy enough for your liking... that does tend to rub me the wrong way. :/
SO, again, thank you, Nonnie, for being patient, understanding, and incredible at being a great friend and reader! I love you and appreciate your support more than words <3 <3 <3
Oh, and YOU are the one who deserves the world!!!! All of you beautiful friends and readers of mine who show me patience and unwavering support -- THANK YOU! <3 This story would be nothing without my readers -- I owe it to you all!!!!

˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚ Astro Observations V ˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚
Links to other astrovations: Astrology observations l, Astrology Observations ll, Astrology observations lll, Astrology observations IV, Astrology observations VI
Tumblr media
🪷Leo placements tend to get deeply involved with their creative endeavours. Many of these people can have artistic things (making jewellery, painting, music, art in general rlly) that they do as a hobby or as a stress reliever. But like y’all should rlly look into careers to do with whatever artistry your interested in because it can take you a long way :) Half of its natural talent the other is Hard work🫶
🪷Venus in 10H individuals may get compliments from strangers a lot and can get treated nicely bc of pretty privilege (srsly tho every Venus 10H person i’ve met were super pretty) However others may be envious of this and may not have best intentions when it comes to you, esp if you have Venus in aspect. with pluto
🪷Unevolved Cancer and libra placements (spec sun/moon/rising/Venus) tend to put other peoples happiness before theirs. With Libras they want to keep the balance within friendships and connections so if there was a dispute, they can put their ego aside and be mature ab whatever is going on, however it can lead to taking the blame for things that others did just to keep the harmony. With Cancer placements, they tend to not speak up against their loved ones even if they know they are wrong. Unconditional love has its consequences at times 😭 Again this is cancer and libra placements that are unevolved and that have to learn the importance of assertiveness and self priority.
🪷Moon conjunct Moon in synastry is such a cute placement. Like no matter what type of relationship you have with the other person they will always have a close place in your heart and you can rarely feel uncomfy around them. My younger brother and I have this aspect and I mean yea it’s brother-sister dynamics but also me and him have so much in common from music tastes to similar interests that nobody else knows about LOL. We also trust each other with secrets and always have each other’s backs. Ik other friends and family members that have this placement with their loved ones and it’s so cute. I noticed that you can come back to this person months after not seeing each other and everything will still be the same. However you can get annoyed with the person you share this placement with simply because you can be very similar in terms of emotional needs.
🪷Uranus in 1/10th house solar return or transit can indicate having a major change to your physical and public appearance. The way others perceive you could drastically change. Uranus first house transit/solar return may also feel a need to change up their appearance because they have gotten bored of it.
🪷Mars/Venus in 8H/10H are hot and nobody is allowed to argue with me.
🪷Mercury-Pluto natives are like sirens, they can entrap you with their voices and charm you easily.
🪷Saturn in Leo individuals may deal with self-esteem issues in their younger years. They may struggle to find confidence in themselves. This is because some of Saturn’s traits are karma, lessons and wisdom. Through the issues many Saturn Leo natives may deal with/have dealt with, they learn to seek validation internally and not externally, so they end up relying on themselves to push them to be confident and find their glow. Through this they learn how to deal with strengthening their ego and self esteem so then it isn’t easily shattered.
🪷Fire risings with Earth moons come off as more chill and relaxed than regular fire risings with fire/air/water moons. I noticed this esp with aries risings and earth moons.
🪷Uranus 4H transit can indicate feeling the need to rebel your traditional values and the things you have been brought up with. This also can indicate seeking more freedom and wanting to leave your home more.
🪷Moon in 11H natives are very idealistic and can be optimistic. These individuals are people oriented, they enjoy helping and collaborating with others. Many of them have amazing social skills (unless moon is afflicted) and strong connections with powerful people in society. This honestly can take them a long way.
🪷Venus in second house/Taurus venus/Leo venus really like to shower their partner with physical affection. Specifically with second house/Taurus venus they definitely like to spoil their lovers with gifts and money. They also like to be possessed or possess their partner in some way 😭 It could be simple things though like spraying their perfume on their s/o hoodie or wearing their s/o's stuff.
🪷Leo venus on the other hand really like to show off their partner and it’s so cute. Their very proud of who they’re with and would gladly give them the world. They’d also like this energy to be reciprocated :D A Leo venus with taurus in big three or in second house (or vice versa) definitely accentuate this qualities.
🪷Capricorn in 5th house may have been restricted a lot when young. They could have had strict parents who didn’t let them go out a lot to parties or didn’t know how to adapt to spontaneous situations, so they found it to be safer to plan out fun events rather than go with the flow.
🪷Libra/Venus/Taurus in the 2nd or 6th house can indicate being obsessed with skincare, makeup and in general getting lost in physical pleasures that bring them therapy. These individuals rlly like to pamper themselves and make themselves feel good through beauty. Also side note they all have rlly pretty faces. 🫶
🪷Saturn conjunct venus in the 6th house can also indicate have a strict health and beauty routine each day. I was gonna say think patrick batemans routine but i realised that was a terrible example LMAO.
🪷Moon opposite mercury may have a difficult time putting their emotions into words. Like they know what they’re feeling it’s just indescribable at times 😭
🪷Mercury conjunct Jupiter are such great people to talk to. Literally. Every single person I’ve met with this aspect rlly know how to lift someone up and are great at making others feel better ab themselves. They also give great advice, must be the wisdom jupiter has in conjunction with mercury. Also on the topic of wisdom, THESE PEOPLE ARE SO SMART, they may not act like it but they are 😭
﹥*:ꔫ:*+゚﹥*:ꔫ:*+゚﹥*:ꔫ:*+゚﹥*:ꔫ:*+゚﹥*:ꔫ:*+゚﹥*:ꔫ:*+゚
Thankyou for reading 🫂 Likes and reblogs are always appreciated :D

Hello! Could get a Marvel matchup (preferably X-Men)? My pronouns are she/her and either male or female preference is good.
𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬: I have massive introverted tendencies and am awkward in nature with new people. As a result I can come across as aloof and indifferent at first. I’m usually too much in my head daydreaming and thinking. I absolutely despise small talk. However with my friends I’m quite friendly and outgoing. Whenever I’m with my friends I can get really giggly and dorky when talking abt my recent hyperfixations. I open up to people very easily if we have similar interests. I tend to either overthink everything or not think at all. I’m a bit of a control freak and want to do the things the way I do them but I won’t enforce this on anyone else unless the result directly affects me. Just let me do things the way I do them. I'm also quite dedicated and ambitious on what I want in my life and will stand by those decisions.
𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗦: New media art. I love to creative code. I love working with interaction design, web design, user experience and user interfaces. I also love creating special effects, and 3D/2d modeling. Apart from this, I love digital illustration and character design.
𝗛𝗢𝗕𝗕𝗜𝗘𝗦: let’s just say I spend way too much time daydreaming. Fan fiction, video games, movies, books, tv shows. Anything that lets me daydream and disappear from reality for a while is a hobby of mine. I also love working out and weight lifting.
LIKES: I love lazy weekends at home, classic arcades, coffee, learning random new facts, spending time alone, intelligence, creativity, a good sense of witty humor, conversations where you can just be yourself and skip all the awkward small talk, the look on people’s faces when they ramble abt the stuff they’re into, a good home cooked meal, summer and warm weather, a good giggling session with friends esp abt fictional crushes ahahha.
DISLIKES: physical touch (tho I do warm up to the people I’m close too), large crowds, cold weather, admitting my anxieties, talking on the phone, and small talk
Thank you! ❤️
Hiya! @danzalladaggers
I ship you with...
Alex Summers
Tumblr media
I read your request in about 30 seconds and immediately I was just like 'Alex.'
I feel like you would get along really well
And I reckon you'd become pretty good friends before you even started dating.
He would love how much of a dork you are and would most likely share his interests with you
This boy would absolutely LOSE HIS MIND if you designed him a new suit via digital illustration
And lets be real, he would definitely stay up with you on some nights, just playing video games and watching tv. he loves it!
Also, training !!!!!
He would absolutely adore training with you, he just finds it so fun.
I also feel like he would read a lot, so he would definitely annotate a book and give it to you for your birthday.
just a warning, he probably can't cook
I mean
he can make a pop tart without it burning?? I suppose???
Alex thrives off of physical touch
He'd been made fun of and cast away for years because of the fact that he was a mutant, so it's really nice for him to know somebody cares
However
If you are not ready for physical touch, that's completely fine! Alex will respect your wishes no matter what
Charles most likely hates both of you /j
bc you're just constantly running around the mansion and cracking jokes with each other and staying up all night
the old man can't catch a break
justice for charles
But anyways, you love Alex, and Alex loves you, so everything's okay
Besides from his cooking

MATCHUP FOR:
Anonymous
Straight, 20, she/her. I'm kind and helpful, people come to me to vent or for advice and comfort. I'm also smart and ambitious, I love being the best at everything I do. I'm fairly introverted and it takes me a while to warm up to people. I'm very outgoing, fun and talkative around the people I'm comfortable with. I love learning about new knowing a little bit of everything. I love mischief and pulling harmless pranks but I do (unwillingly) play the role of the responsible adult sometimes. I adore adventures, witty and playful banter, joking around and having indepth discussions on anything and everything. I also daydream a lot and I'm quite the hopeless romantic!
I'm pretty competitive and I'm deathly afraid of failure and disappointing the people I love. I'm quite stubborn and dramatic and I get frustrated and agigated easily. I have a tendency of holding people at an arms length and I get very distant sometimes. I'm in my head a lot and this makes me a little clumsy and careless.
I love reading, my room is filled with stacks of books. My favorite genres are poetry, Russian lit and mysteries. I also enjoy true crime a lot. I find cooking and cleaning up really relaxing. I adore all forms of art and have quite a few creative hobbies, my favorite being interior design! listen to a lot of modern rock and I love watching psychological thrillers and romcoms. I have a lot of course work so my past times currently only consist of taking as many naps as I can.
I'm 5'9 and I have long and curly dark brown hair and brown eyes. I have a fair skin tone, I'm slim and I've got full lips and large eyes. I have prominent cheekbones and dimples that I really like! I mostly dress in relaxed suits, blazers and coats and I love the occasional dress or sweaters layered over a white button down. I almost always have a red lip on and I love wearing blush. Infp, 4w3.
Love language: Quality time and physical touch. Big three: Taurus sun, gemini moon and scorpio rising. Insecurities: My broad shoulders and the dark circles under my eyes and I do struggle with self esteem issues. Hogwarts house: Ravenclaw.
From Stranger Things I Ship You With:
Jonathan Byers
Tumblr media
Ship Dynamic:
Forced Proximity Turned OTP™
Quote:
«The intimacy of being understood like a muse understands a painter, like a reader understands a book.»
When I say forced proximity, I mean forced proximity as in you two are completely unconnected to each other. You and Jonathan wouldn't end up together under any regular circumstances.
However, due to your curious nature and your thirst for adventure (honestly, having to be the best at everything might play a part too), you were in the wrong place at the wrong time (or should I say right?)
You find yourself joining Nancy, Steve, Jonathan and the party completely by accident. They quickly assess that you're a good asset to their gang, so you stick with them and save the world. Hell, the group is already odd enough, why not add another member?
So there's how you start to interact with Jonathan. I don't think you and Nancy would particularly get along at first, and Steve is... Well he's a jock, so you naturally find yourself gravitating towards Jonathan.
I feel like he would serve you a pretty acceptable yet unexpected banter. First it may come off as dry bc introvert+trust issues x introvert+trust issues, but the more you two warm up to each other, the more playful and loose it is.
Cue flirty banter as a form of communication.
The undeniable chemistry you two expose your friends to has them slack jawed. Do they root for you? Yes, are they baffled by it? Also yes.
Communicating with just glances and expressions.
Sharing humor full of inside jokes.
Finding things you have in common as soon as you loosen up around each other.
Excitedly commenting books you've read. Getting exponentially more excited the more you talk because you find out you read the same books.
Ending up at your house so Jonathan can see the dangerously big amount of books you have.
I do not make the rules okay yes I do, but you end up kissing oop-
MOVIE NIGHTS AT HIS PLACE MOVIE NIGHTS AT HIS PLACE MOVIE NIGHTS AT HIS PLACE
You being his muse when it comes to photography. He gets immense pleasure from taking photos of you while you're distracted doing something you like (designing for example).
You drag him into doing stupid and reckless shit like pulling pranks. He freaks out the first two ti but eventually loves it because you're so fun.
Being Jonathan's rock. He's always playing the parental figure in his house, so he'd definitely does that with you too, but he soon realizes you're more capable of taking care of him too.
Not Jonathan having a breakdown over that because he can finally reach out for help whenever he's drowning.
That said, you find out you don't have to play the responsible adult role if he's around, so it's a win-win situation for the both of you.
Getting along with Will straight away. You him develop his artistic aptitudes, jokingly bitch about Jonathan with him, offer him a confidant persona outside of his family, which is pretty much needed for kids his age who went through a lot, etc.
Big sister vibes.
Jonathan loves to see you interact with Will without interfering. He gets such a warm, comforting feeling, because it feels like you belong there, in his family.
Keep in mind that family is the most important thing to Jonathan, so this is like, A Big Thing™.
Random but Jonathan gets a silly little grin on his face whenever you kiss his cheek in a public place/when he's about to go out because having a red lipstick stain>>>>>.
Holding/brushing hands at all times, even before you date.
He boosts your self esteem in a big logical way, so it's not only sweet, it's also funny because why would you start with "you know objectively speaking-" or "it's proven that-". BOY YOU'RE COMPLIMENTING SOMEONE NOT SPITTING FACTS.
Jonathan is NOT a hopeless romantic but he IS hella thoughtful and has a knack for remembering the tiniest details about you, so you bet this boy is going to fuel that hopeless romantic side of yours.

life updates and goals
I think after a very low point of my life, like many others, I want to make some big changes this coming year.
Quit Twitter Most notably, I’ve greatly reduced my social media usage. It was sucking up all my happiness and I tied my emotions and friendships to what goes on on the hell site and I realized that it’s just an illusion I’ve created for myself. I started feeling guilty for not commenting/liking and I got jabbed a few times for not interacting enough. So... enough already. Obviously, I still like to draw and I want to share it and talk about the stuff I like but if I don’t have anything to post, I’m just keeping off of it. So if I don’t interact, it’s not because we’re not friends anymore! (And if you have this mindset about your friends then I recommend reevaluating how you use social media as well.)
Draw Less It seems kinda weird to do less of what I love doing but I realized I worked way too hard for the wrong reasons. Why stay up until 5am drawing for strangers on the internet? I will draw precisely when it is right for me.
Engage in Other Hobbies Ugh I have GOT to do other things instead of drawing. I had quit gaming for a while because I had no life outside of drawing and working. I love reading too: books, graphic novels, manga. I recently caught up to Golden Kamuy again after forgetting about it for a while and I am reminded how much I love it. And Webtoons. I’m kind of obsessed with Webtoons now. I’m reading like 10 things at once.
Nail art is something I began pursuing early 2020 so I could do Kratos-themed nails (lmao) for the con that got canceled but I hope to get good at it again.
And finally, to no one’s surprise, I picked up Gunpla building! I don’t think I’ll get more than 2 kits but I have enjoyed learning how it works. I currently have Char’s Zaku and the Zeta Gundam!
Talk to Friends I often fail to initiate contact with people because I feel like I don’t have time to sit and chat when I was drawing so much. I want to change that. It’s important to nourish the relationships you have because when it comes down to it, your followers aren’t going to be there for you - your friends are. I would like to put it out there that I encourage you to DM me. I am happy to say that I’ve made a few wonderful friends because we all got over the fear of “bothering the other person.”
Improve Self Care This is also a budding hobby but I’m starting to get into skincare products. Yeah, that’s a rabbit hole alright. My skin has always been “okay” but then I thought, what if it could be radiant?! I always thought I’d never be able to afford anything outside the drugstore (and even then it can still get expensive) but I’ve been watching this girl’s YT channel and she has some pretty affordable recommendations. She’s young, like 23, and trying to save money lol. I’ll still have to make these birthday gifts to myself tho. T_T
Because of her, I’m starting to understand the appeal of watching Vlogs now?? It began bc I was so fascinated by her skincare regimen and then that led to me wondering what she ate and what she does as a content creator. It really was interesting! And so relatable lol... “staying up all night to edit a video to be posted the next day.” I felt that.
Learn How to Invest This is probably the worst time to be investing but what’s important is learning. I have a lot of free time now so it would be an excellent skill to learn. It seems that it was a thing to learn during your college years so I’m pretty embarrassed to be so far behind... yikes. You want to know know what I was doing during college? Drawing sports anime and playing league of legends.
Get Buff My friends know I’ve been trying to get buff arms for years but I’ve never been able to do it lmao. But I will now. I’ll be changing my lifestyle in hopes I’ll achieve this goal this year. Sleeping earlier, working out more consistently, eating properly, drinking more water. All of these things are naturally good for the body (and skin!) so I want to make it a lifestyle even after I’ve attained my goal.
Get a New Job It’s been my goal since forever, but I feel especially fired up now. Plus if I don’t I’ll probably be in big financial trouble haha......... However, with these life changes, I can properly focus on applying and present a super amazing design portfolio.
Be More Generous When it comes to saving money, I can be pretty annoying and strict. I think it comes from fear/lack of confidence in my future. I want to let go a little and gift more of my friends. They’ll probably be "ok” gifts but it’s better than not doing anything. I also want to support my fellow creators. I must commission someone this year!
Anyway that’s all for now. Thanks for reading / checking on me. I appreciate you!

sorry you know me I like to ask a million questions so here it goes- Tinsel:5,18,20,27,31,39,40 / Nila:13,28/Roman:11,6,7/Benji:4,19/Saoirse: 20,25,27 /Fionn: 6,7,10,33/ Scone:21,23 - sorry can’t remember the other siblings off the top of my head and these are the major ones anyway right haha? and this is a lot of questions anyway soooo
Ooo we're getting into the selkies tonight
Tinsel
5. What was their childhood fear?
Being alone or left behind. It was definitely a threat when they were a kid like "if you aren't on the caravan before we leave at noon, we're leaving you behind". I don't think their parents would have actually left them behind when they were small but it was enough of a threat that they and their siblings listened for the most part. Its not so much a childhood fear as it is a regular adult fear now.
18. If they could live or visit anywhere, where would they go?
Tinsel really likes where they live but they do have dreams about living on a sunny coast with their partners when they all settle down. Idk if there's anywhere specific they want to visit? They just go where the adventure leads them. I think they would like to visit somewhere to meet up with their family, tho.
20. What did they dream of "growing up" to be?
Oh man, Tinsel wanted to be an A List celebrity actor. They wanted to be lead role in blockbusters. It was a big goal for them but they were sure they could do it.
27. Have they achieved any of their childhood dreams? Are they still trying? Have those dreams changed?
They've gotten some of their childhood dreams! They moved to Holly Bay and made tons of friends. They got to act in live theater. They were almost in a movie! They got some notoriety from adventuring and were on TV for it. They got to kiss their childhood crush. They didn't quite make it to the A List after getting blacklisted but they're def still trying.
In regards to how they changed: I don't think they changed too much but they did see how hard it was to achieve them. Plus, they started dreaming about having a family when they were with Bast so that's definitely something they want now.
31. Who are they when they aren't with the party?
When they're not with the party, Tinsel is way less open about themself. They're a master of either talking around a question or lying by omission and they use it when they don't feel comfortable sharing. Pre-adventure, they didn't really even tell their closest friends the entire truth about their backstory (which is honestly buckwild and hard to believe anyway) or their relationship with Bast or really anything about their love/sex life.
I think it's bc they don't think Kira and Zona will judge them.
39. If someone could tell them anything about the future they asked, would they want to know? Would they ask?
I think they have actually, they asked if they were going to get married. I don't think they would want to ask something super serious because they aren't going to listen to a no.
40. What sets them free?
A good support system. Tinsel's very talented and driven but they need the power of friendship to keep them from burning out.
Nila
13. How do they like to spend afternoons free?
Nila likes to paint. She dipped her toe into art forgery for a little bit but decided it was more fun to steal the real thing and do her own work on the side. She has one of those cute little travel watercolors she uses to paint landscapes when she gets some time alone. Absolutely no one knows she has this hobby.
28. If they could change their class(es), would they? To what?
I dont think she'd change her class from rogue but she would def take some wizard skills.
Roman
11. What were their teenage years like?
He was a horrible teenage boy, mostly bc he wanted attention. He started off with red hair but occasionally made it redder when he got teased about it. He activated the Cain instinct in a lot of his siblings but I think Tinsel tried to kicked his ass the most purely due to how close their ages are. He shot them with an arrow by accident once and never lived it down.
His mom taught him archery at around 14-15 and he got very good at it to try and impress her. He left home around 18/19, picked up some odd jobs/repaired archery equipment professionally for a few years until Nila called him up like "hey bro miss you let's do this heist together".
6. Did they grow up with siblings? What were those relationships like?
Yes lmao my boy has 9 siblings. I sort of talked about this in the last question but yeah he liked to stir the pot for attention. Even though they tried to kick his ass, his siblings still love him. Him and Saoirse always got along really well and I'm p sure she stopped him from actually getting murdered as a kid lol. He really doesn't have a bad relationship with any of them, though, besides still owing Scone a bunch of money. Rome's a lot of fun and he's the kind of guy who will give or share anything with you. He is just A Lot.
7. How were their relationships with their parents/guardians growing up?
He def knew he wasn't the favorite child lol. I think once Knox realized why his kid was acting up, he made sure to spend some extra time with him every once and a while. And once he showed promise in archery, his relationship with Fulki got better too. I think he has an okay relationship with his parents right now but he definitely would never live with them again.
Benji
4. Who was their childhood hero?
Their dad! They're very similar people and he looks up to him a lot.
19. How does the high noon sun make them feel?
Sleepy... It's too darn hot. He's 100% not interested in going out at high noon so he's either taking a nap or hanging out somewhere shady with Folsom.
Saoirse
20. What did they dream of "growing up" to be?
I don't know if Saoirse had one specific dream. What she did know is that she didn't want to get married and she didn't want to have kids. I think she went through a bunch of phases on what she wanted to be when she grew up until she landed on being a wizard. When that stuck, she just leaned hard into it.
25. What is their comfort item/habit?
She's definitely one of those "make a hot beverage when I'm stressed" kind of people. She's also a stress baker... Which used to be a "make potions and light stuff on fire" habit but she realized she gets muffins if she bakes instead.
She also has a bunch of stuffed animals in her room, purely because she's an adult wizard and no one can tell her not to have stuffies.
27. Have they achieved any of their childhood dreams? Are they still trying? Have those dreams changed?
Oh, she totally achieved the wizard thing and now she's a real Howl Pendragon figure. She got bored being by herself so she applied to get some apprentices, but due to a clerical error, she wound up with a couple of brothers (Max and Arseny) who were way too young to be apprentices. She's basically raising them as her kids (they call her mama and the Townes all consider them grandkids/nephews lol) but Saoirse insists they're still her apprentices in public.
Fionn
6. Did they grow up with siblings? What were those relationships like?
Fionn was the golden oldest brother! He and Saoirse were basically 3rd/4th parents so the rest of the siblings came to love/respect him. He was really good at keeping the peace. Dude would have made a fantastic diplomat. The siblings especially liked when he told them stories about life before their family left the Muirs or stories about knights/heroes. It was a rough day when he disappeared and the siblings that remember him really miss him.
7. How were their relationships with their parents/guardians growing up?
Very strained. Like, he was def the favorite child, but Fionn really had some childhood trauma from The Fall that they couldn't help him with bc they also had it. He sort of resents that he got put into the auxiliary parent role on top of it. I think ultimately they expected way too much out of him so it was only natural he'd disappear and be feral.
10. When did their childhood end?
I don't think it was a definite ending, more of a gradual thing around his early teens when he realized he had a lot of responsibilities.
Scone
21. How did they become an adventurer?
Scone's best friend Latte (a Yuke who's good with magic) sent her a letter that suggested they'd make a good caravanning team. She was itching to leave the family caravan (she was tired of bailing her siblings out and knew that adventuring was good money) so she agreed!
23. What is their role in the party? Not just their class on a meta level, but among the individuals who make up the party?
Imagine a buff accountant and you have Scone lol.
Like Tinsel, Scone is the tank in combat. However, unlike Tinsel, Scone is weirdly responsible. She makes sure all the supplies are stocked and in order, makes sure everyone takes care of themselves and she keeps track of their earnings. She can be outgoing but she prefers to let her team do the social leg work.

Pillars x Modern reader? Please if it alright with you
hi!! i was going to say no tbh bc my rules say only two charas max but,, i'll let it slide i guess lmao 
modern! pillars x reader!hcs: 
himejima gyoumei:
okay so like,, in a modern au i like to imagine that gyoumei would be a sculptor hehe (yes, i know, not v original).
and you a painter!! 
and like,, the two of you are secret admirers of one another 
like he would often see you at the art gallery he frequents just staring at his sculptures & just,,, looking at them w pure awe?
 which he finds so heartwarming & makes him super motivated & happy in what he does!! 
and at art auctions when he buys your paintings? you feel like fainting from happiness bc the guy you admire so much BUYS YOUR PAINTINGS?!?! 
so then one day the two of you just,, bumped into each other coincidentally while at the art gallery the two of you go to often
the two of you chat comfortably before asking for one another's numbers & discuss about a potential coffee date!! 
and so, after that & a couple more dates, the two of you became official!!
iguro obanai:
hmm i feel like snek boi would be a tattoo artist 
you a florist (FUCK i hate my unoriginal ideas) 
your shops are right beside each other's haha
you sometimes talked but it was only about small awkward things like the weather BYE
but then one day you got locked out of your shop oops
so you,, sort of stayed w/ obanai in his shop until the person you called to help came
 which he didn't mind at all btw
surprisingly, the two of you got along really well? not to mention you guys liked a lot of the same things & had similar hobbies??
 from then on the two of you were kinda Whipped™™™™™ for each other lmaoo,, you often went to each other's shops when you guys didn't have any customers/had a slow day 
so then you decided to confess and!! he accepted your feelings & said he felt the same way!! (screams) & ever since then the two of you began to date uwu
rengoku kyoujurou:
okay so kyoujurou in the kimetsu academy au is a history teacher, right? 
and you are the english teacher!! 
honestly the entire school love the two of you so much
 and they even ship the two of you super hard\ but!! the thing is? the two of you are already dating, haha~ the students just don't know that yet
so it's hella amusing when the two of you witness them trying to set the two of you up with one another 
so you and kyoujurou had a mutual agreement to just act innocent and go along w what they do (which the students totally fall for)
until one day you accidentally let it slip (whoops) 
"hi guys, sorry for being late, kyoujurou won't be here today 'cause he's sick and i had to take care of him for a bit—oops did i just spill everything?"
 from then on the entire school knew the two of you were dating (and thank god, bc now you guys could be affectionate in public lmaoooo)
tokitou muichirou:
muichirou would be like that quiet, asocial first year *wheeze*
& like...there's tons of rumors of him being rude n closed off to others that try to be friends w him
n you're like!! haha!! fuck those rumors i want to be friends w him!! (plus he's cute wink wink) 
so, you try to approach him by sitting in front of his desk during lunch, or talk to him front time to time in your close (surprise!! the two of you are in the same class) 
he ignores you tbh & even tries to push you away,,, but you're super persistent (in an annoyingly,, cute way?) 
but like one day, you're absent from class two days in a row, and he's like,, fuck?? is it my fault??? did i do something to them?? is (name) not here bc of me?? i miss (name) surprisingly a lot and idk why???
and like for the two days he feels like he's fuckin hallucinating or some shit bc he always turns his head to the direction he expects you to be, or like hears your voice even if you're not there? 
but then you came after those two days, and he immediately comes up to you and questions you as to why you were absent 
you just laugh and smile, telling him that you were sick (& tease him too) which he gets really flustered at and even blushes bc he missed you a lot bye 
so then he confesses to you, and tells you that even if it was two days, it felt like forever and he just really missed you and wanted you to be by his side?? and you found that hella cute (also bc of his blushing face) so like uh,, ever since then the two of you started to date
tomioka giyuu:
kimetsu academy au where he's the gym teacher (duh it's canon) & ur the assistant nurse of tamayo uwu
you often supervise whenever giyuu has a class bc you know how rough he can be,, so you're just there in case anything happens
 cue the students being in love w you bc you're the literal opposite of giyuu
cue the students lowkey shipping the two of you too (& the two of you are HELLA oblivious about about, too) 
you like to chat w him sometimes, even if you're the one who's doing most of the talking
despite his rough nature you actually find him really cute and like??? attractive 
and giyuu?? is naturally attracted to you too?? but then one day a student fight breaks out and while giyuu tries to stop it he ends up getting injured
so you, of course, treat him the best you can—tending to the bruises on his face & the cuts on his arms & legs,, and like your touch is so fucking good and gentle and like??? bitch is about to melt too
he ends up telling you that he likes you,, and you're shocked bc omg?? the guy i like just confessed & asked me out (btw u said yes haha)
uzui tengen:
aight so spy!au where he is sent to spy on you bc you're under suspicion working under an illegal organization (wait this counts as a modern au right? yeah anyways,,) 
he moves in to the apartment right across from you as your new "neighbor" 
he also works as the cashier at the bakery you work at too!!
 bc of that, naturally, the two of you got close
you thought he was v attractive and funny lmao,, you especially found his "flamboyant" catch phrase hella endearing too 
and tengen was like: fUCK NO I CANT FALL IN LOVE W YOU YOU'RE MY MISSION!! 
yeah right lmao bc he did end up falling in love w you. so he even asked you out (which ofc you said yes?? like bro tengen is literally the person of you're dreams) 
but he reminded himself that he still had a mission to do, so he used it the fact that the two of you were dating to his advantage to find more about you (aka snooping) 
you didn't really mind that + the fact that he asked lots of questions about you
but once he found out that you were completely clear, he was?? highkey happy and relieved, so he could date you comfortably without being paranoid lmao
kanroji mitsuri:
idol! mitsuri and manager! reader au hehe 
honestly you have been w mitsuri ever since she debuted
you watched her grow as both a singer and as a person—you saw all the sides of her personality, habits, flaws, etc; which honestly? made you fall in love w her 
however, you kept your feelings a secret bc you didn't want anybody to find out plus ruin mitsuri's reputation?
like okay you get fired but you don't want to hurt mitsuri or the years of hard work to be destroyed 
but it's so fuckin hard you know? bc she's super affectionate w you, and you're over here trying to keep your feelings in? 
so eventually you just,,, confess to her—all the feelings you had pent up just finally spill out
unexpectedly?? she says she feels the same way?? but she's been in love w you ever since she first laid eyes on you?? 
so lmao you keep your relationship a secret, even from the agency you work at lmao 
despite the hardships that you guys often face, you get through them together and the two of you couldn't be anymore happier w one another??
kochou shinobu: 
roommates au in which the two of you are college students 
shinobu a pharmacology major & you in toxicology!!
bc of you living together and even sharing some classes, the two of you spend a lot of time w each other 
you guys have plenty of study dates too haha 
and cute stuff like night outs or movies nights!!! 
honestly the more time you spend w her, the more time you?? fall in love shinobu. like. head over heels for her. 
and shinobu's like??? I FEEL REALLY NICE AND FUZZY AROUND YOU (in her brain, though) 
so the two of you end up confessing at the same time during movie night bc the movie reminded the two of you of each other a lot?? uh?? 
when the two of you realize what you said two each other, the two of you laugh it off and just? begin dating 
nothing really changes tbh!! just more affection, dates, spending time w each other, and being more intimate ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
shinazugawa sanemi:
bodyguard au :D in which sanemi is your newly appointed bodyguard and you're a millionaire that needs to be protected 
honestly he thought you'd be snobby as fuck considering that's how rich people usually are in his eyes
 but?? you're really freakin chill and cool?? not like he'd admit that aloud lmaoo
you like to tease him a lot bc he's so uptight w you, but apologize & give him ohagi (which he really fuckin loves?? Uh??)
you always try to convince him to play video games w you lmaoo esp mario kart (he declines though *eyeroll emoji*)
since he's almost always serious around you, when you find him tending to your dogs and being so soft around them you're like?? fuck?? my heart?? 
so basically the two of u dumbasses have feelings for each other but are oblivious + don't want to confess,,, like the more time you spend w one another the more you fall in love?
and he absolutely just,, loves it when you visit orphanages and help w the kids and the way you treat them is so sweet? 
yeah. he's so in love. 
but it wasn't until you ended up in a life-threatening situation that he actually confessed to you—which, as serious as the moment was, you cracked a joke and accepted his feelings.

Character Page 𓆰 Brooke
A character page for what is, at its core, something of another au for my main, Astor, buttt... it’s basically bc one day I had a random bought of inspiration and followed through on “what if I came up with a deer-like race for XIV” and... then I spent like two hours making lore for them and listening to whitetail deer noises on YouTube. So! He’s different enough to warrant his own lil page! ^.^ I will try to cover enough of this theoretical lore that things make sense, but hopefully without going... ridiculously overboard and keeping you here for hours over a race of my own brainworms. xD
Tumblr media
BASICS ---
Name: Brooke, technically like the water feature “brook,” but, somewhere along the line, someone thought it was spelled with an ‘e’ like the more common rendition of the name, and he did not have enough of an understanding of the written Eorzean Common Tongue to know the difference.
Age: It’s a little hazy, but approximately 28 summers by Shadowbringers
Nameday: 17th sun of the 3rd Umbral Moon
Race: Dryad
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Martial Status: Single(?)
OC Tags: ch: brooke
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE ---
Hair: Long, falling down about his mid-shoulders when worn loosely and dark brown. Typically worn with at least one braid, and often pulled back in some sort of fashion. Occasionally braids feathers or flowers into it.
Eyes: A pale crystal blue, almost gray. Often wide, curious, and warm.
Height: 5 fulms, 10 ilms, not accounting for a full grown set of antlers.
Build: Lithe, lean, and long in the legs - all traits rather common among his race. As a fully mature adult, Brooke generally grows in a full antler set featuring an average of 4 points that typically form a generally crescent moon-like shape. The typical adult male Dryad will grow anywhere from 4-6 points, while a female will grow 2-4.
Distinguishing Marks: Much of Brooke is rather... distinguishing, given the rarity of his people to the rest of Eorzea. They are generally a reclusive people, living deep within the woods and mountains from the land, migrating occasionally with the season and food supply, but rarely actually leaving. Given such, it wasn’t until prior to the Calamity that Brooke ventured beyond the bounds of his wooded home deep in the Shroud at the behest of his herd that he came into contact with the outside world. Given the antlers and the fluffy ears and tail, most... didn’t exactly greet him with kindness. He was odd and unlike anyone else most had seen. The Calamity has pushed their survivors from their homes and more into the light, but they’re still a relatively unknown factor. Many regarded him initially with the same judgements and mistrust afforded the beast tribes.
Outside of the physical denotations of his race, the only other marks one might occasionally find that could be helpful are the paints he still tries to find some time to don in honor of his kin and ancestors. Life as an adventurer has taken him further and further from his roots, but no further from his respect for their traditions.
Tumblr media
PERSONAL ---
Profession: Brooke initially left his herd, sent by their leader, to act as an emissary to the nation of Gridania in the days leading up to the Calamity. While the details of the time after Cartenau are yet fuzzy to him, he had not intended to abandon his post in the Calamity’s wake. In the world that remains, however, he is unable to ascertain whether any of his herd survived. By lucky chance, he has fallen in with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, lending his strength and mixed arcane knowledge to their fight for peace.
Main Job: Brooke and his people are something of an enigma by standard definitions of magical practice. They are gifted in a wide variety of arts, and their semi-nomadic nature has brought them into contact with various remnants of ages past. In Brooke’s case, the closest standard classification may be Red Magic, as he possesses an affinity with a wide variety of skills typically associated with both White and Black Magic, though, unlike the duelists of the Red, Brooke still prefers to focus his energies through a staff or scepter than a blade.
Hobbies: Gathering is more a standard survival skill of his people than a hobby, so he would hesitate to classify his botanical knowledge and pursuits as such. Instead, he would much prefer to count his reading as his favorite one - particularly into history and prevalent folklore and tales. In his role as emissary, he sought understanding between his people and those sharing the Twelveswood with them, even if they had been doing so unwittingly. Thus, it was only natural he needed to seek an understanding of their customs as well as shed some light on his own. He finds the telling of history and belief systems fascinating, marveling at the many differences and nuances to be found within them.
Languages: Though Brooke possesses the Echo, he still struggles with languages, at times. He has steadily grasped a more firm understanding of the Eorzean Common Tongue, but it would not be wrong to say his Echo granted him a better understanding of the language and intentions of creatures, beasts, and elements than any language of man.
Residence: At times, it is still difficult to feel settled among civilization, but his efforts and work with the Scions have afforded him the security of a small residence within the protection of Gridania. At least the more seasoned adventurers aren’t so prone to gawping at his unusual appearance.
Birthplace: His herd lived somewhere deep within the Twelveswood. After the destruction reigned down by Bahamut though, he has found more malms of it unfamiliar to him than ever, and he cannot even be certain they survived - much less that their home may have.
Religion: Dryads believe in something one might call spirts, more than any gods. They revere natural elements such as wind, water, and earth and pay a deep respect to the balance of these things. Taking more than one needs and reckless destruction are considered sacrilegious to them. They host celebrations for each season, each having a representative and associated elemental spirits of focus - the closest one might find to a pantheon of gods in their beliefs. This is something he has held fast to even in the face of their many adventures.

PERSONALITY ---
Curious, warm, and soft-spoken, Brooke has a quiet love for life that some might find a little naïve. He’s a deeply passionate individual that does not often find a reason to hide the way he feels. He believes strongly in such things as the beauty of a star-dappled sky or a color-changing sunset. He feels strongly about preserving the ways of his people, finding a nostalgic familiarity in them as he uncovers the world beyond the wood. It has been daunting, at times.
But curiosity has kept spurring him forward. Seeing marvels like airships and linkpearls up close are strange, sometimes terrifying, but incredible experiences.
He endeavors to remain honest to himself and true to his beliefs. He does not believe in turning others away over superficial differences. If one is in need, that should be enough. Where they are from or what creed they follow should not restrict them from aid. It might make him something of an idealist, but if it is foolish to believe in and want such things, then he would gladly be a fool. He tries his best to remain willing to learn, and finds joy in understanding and sharing. He’d gladly listen to someone tell stories for hours, if it would make them happy.
Tumblr media
ABOUT --
Born and raised with his herd in the secluded depths of the Twelveswood, Brooke thought and new little of the world beyond the wooded reaches of their herd until he was well along to becoming a young adult. In the brewing chaos of looming calamity, their leader bid him go forth to their neighbors of the wood in Gridania in an attempt to reach an understanding and mutual aid. Such levels of destruction would doom them all, regardless, and she bid them not remain idle and wait for the coming darkness.
The troubling times would provide their own draws and setbacks to opening a dialogue with the Gridanians and their Seedseers, but, ultimately, Brooke would succeed in at least opening these discussions, revealing the Dryads’ presence within Eorzea with certainty and agreeing to aid in the developing struggles against the Garlean Empire.
What, exactly, followed is, as many others have described, something of a blur. The only certainty of the matter was that it left the young Dryad stranded alone in a wholly new and twisted realm that was all just... a bit funny. Familiar in ways... Entirely not in others.
He may just have ran afoul of a little cult. Y’know. Nothing major. Definitely not a voidsent interested in aether. Definitely not his. Or... perhaps he did. And perhaps he’s quite lucky he met an adventurer not keen on letting cultists lurk about in underground tombs or let unsuspecting strangers get turned into voidsent treats. Quite lucky, that! But... all’s well that ends well, right..?
With a little to be desired for a solid sense of direction and purpose, Brooke found himself once again woven into a greater tapestry of fate than he could have ever predicted. There were, thankfully, a few... passingly familiar faces along the way, it seemed, but still little in the way of ascertaining the fate of those he had left behind, grown up with.
But there was still their hope - hope for a better future, for a way forward, the dawn of another day they could enjoy and share with their loved ones. That had always been worth fighting for, so fight for it, he would.

ggweek 2020: All About Rio
Tagged by the wonderful @inyoursheets and absurd @sothischickshe
Tagging (but no pressure!!) @fairhairedkings​ @missmaxime​ @briosgina​ @mrslackles​ 
Questions from here and I think I added a read more?
Why do I personally like or dislike Rio? (I added this one for fun)
A few different elements of Good Girls drew me in (humor, acting, UST, etc) and I have been hyperfixated hooked since! And not to get too real on the main--jk imma bare it all out here on the internet--I found Good Girls in a time when I didn’t really have much independence or agency in my life. So, obviously, beth being a boss bitch and rio being straight-up unhinged definitely satiated me.
Specifically, other than the fact that he is very very handsome and i would give him my life savings if he just said the word “muhney”, I love that he takes calculated risks (ie any risk he takes on beth), has fun being a prick (“what’s up, you miss me?”, “it’s too good, ma”, “need another bathroom break?”, “we’re consolidating”), has amazing outfits (no further comment), uses his charisma to cajole and charm people into compliance (rip Gil & Lucy), and yeah i just think he’s neat
What are your headcanons about Rio’s and Mick’s relationship? Did they meet through crime? Are they lifelong friends?
OH definitely best buds for LIFE who met during crime and then like just trusted each other’s judgement. I think Demon follows orders without a second thought (which Rio loves), Rio laughs manically whenever Demon says something sassy or rude (which Demon loves), and they neither one takes life too seriously, ya know? They’re both just having a good time and appreciate that the other is on the same wavelength.
Now that’s what is probable. What isn’t probable BUT I want dearly??
Mick barbeques every other month and Rio brings Marcus everytime
Rio and Mick have matching tattoos on their ankles from a very fun night in Canada
They play basketball together and the winner rubs the victory in the other’s face for the rest of the week. Rio always dunks on Mick, but Mick is surprisingly agile and good at stealing (bc he’s not wearing a tiny leather jacket duh)
Mick has tried to set Rio up with his many cousins by bringing them to the bar “coincidentally” at the same time Rio is there
They text each other pictures of their food and share restaurant/food truck suggestions
What are Rio’s hobbies outside of work and Marcus? What do you think he’d get up to on a day with absolutely no responsibilities?
ART! ART! ART! I will not accept any answers except for boxing/basketball and art. That man’s apartment was wayyy to gorgeous, and have you seen his hands?? I can only imagine the things he can do with a paintbrush
What do you think Rio’s goals for the future are?
Total mayhem and destruction (at the Boland residence)
What do you think Rio is bad at (cooking, dancing, singing, etc.)? How come?
There’s NO way he’s good at singing, but i would bet everything i have that he is a good dancer. I mean,, I could stare at the way he walks allllll day.
Why do you think Rio is drawn to Beth? + Why do you think Rio didn’t kill Beth?
Before I joined the fandom, I really questioned why either one was attracted to the other, and oftentimes, I was convinced that they simply were using each other for selfish reasons and for the sake of manipulating the other. Now, I still believe that they use each for selfish business reasons, but that genuine feelings and interests have also developed since around 1.06 and it has been challenging for both ever since business and personal have mixed.
I think the fact that they are two sides of the same coin makes their attraction so delicious for a viewer, but I think that they are both distrustful individuals and thus are destined to always second guess the other’s motivation even if they are being genuine. It kinda reminds me of Epifanio and Camila’s marriage in Queen of the South: they love each other, but the clash of their individual ambitions make it difficult to trust each other.
But, back to the question lol. I think Rio is drawn to Beth and hasn’t killed her because he understands her, sees himself in her, and enjoys how she challenges him. Specifically, they are both motivated by the desire to provide for their kid(s) and their love for crime. Beth hustles hard, leverages her unfortunate situations into advantageous ones, and only trusts herself--I think the same can be said for Rio and that he admires these parts of Beth.
What are your headcanons about Rio’s family? Siblings? Parents? Lifestyle growing up?
This is a tough one bc I absolutely love the different OCs created for Rio’s family and I think it’s so fun to see his older sisters clown him on the daily. However, I’m inclined to think he has one older sister because he drinks his respect women juice and has STRONG younger sibling vibes (re: constantly causing trouble but always acquitted). In my limited experience, I think older siblings have to be more responsible, and Rio plays it a little more fast and loose.
I would also venture a guess that if he had a “stable”/”traditional” childhood, he likely wouldn’t have fallen into crime? I have a hard time placing what his parents and upbringing was like, because I only have my frame of reference and like who thinks that’s sound judgement lol. But I suppose that Manny’s own backstory would be a good starting point: he grew up in a rough area, has traditional grandparents (who likely supervised Rio when his parents were working/not home), and is hustling to move up in the world. I also think that he is someone who has come to discover and define his own style over time, but wasn’t able to when he was younger.
Do you think Rio’s been arrested before Beth got him arrested in 1.10? When, and what for?
MY bby? My “too smart for his own good”, “two-steps-ahead” bby??? ABSOLUTEL Y  NOT  i think the shutdown episode is such a good example of why not, and i think we know that beth is a BIG, glaring exception in his normal business dealings, so getting arrested doesn’t happen often, if ever
If Rio weren’t a crime boss, what jobs do you think he’d be good at? Why?
OK so I went back and forth on this one. Let me explain my thoughts
I think he is well-suited for being a PM in tech because it requires “disruption” and Rio definitely loves to disrupt things lol, and he is a natural leader who can motivate a team to follow his lead.
I DO not think that working at a consulting firm or law firm or something businessy like that would be up his alley bc its way too stuffy and too many rules (ethics & compliance training, what the fuck?) But Rio is also good at being a snake
Maybe a math teacher? Before you laugh, hear me out. He’s good with kids, he’s good at math, and we know he likes to give lessons!! (does he do it well? Idk but obviously beth was ready to shoot boomer in S2 and then taught Max in s3, so there’s that lol)
But yeah, I think an entrepreneur in tech is perf bc is requires a certain degree of rule-breaking, a certain degree of charisma, and strong math/science skills.

benders from atla in real life
So you watched atla and Korra and now you’re obsessed. Like really obsessed. You’ve tried bending the elements in real life but to no avail, and you’d still like to figure out what kind of bender you are. Below, I’ve listed a guide as to what I’ve determined are characteristics and mannerisms of all the bending types based on characters from the show and also real people I’ve met that share the characteristics of benders. (PSA: This is just for fun! pls don’t take any of this too seriously, bc it’s mostly just my thinking.)
Waterbenders: Waterbenders are smart, creative, and practical. They’re extremely organized and efficient and are so versatile, mainly because they’re often prepared for all outcomes. They are efficient and good at planning. 
personality: most water benders can be laid back and serene, but at the same time can be as raging and strong as a storm as shown by Katara. They’re very driven, and rarely change their course, being suprisingly determined and stubborn to reach their goals. They’re also very warm and friendly towards those they love and care about, and often are a good shoulder to cry on. They tend to excel in fields working with their hands as well as medical and healing professions. Their creativity and ability to understand people also make them great teachers. They’re also very family and goal oriented and strive to find a proper balance between both. They are often ambiverted, and like to spend time with people, but also need time alone to recharge. Water zodiac signs tend to be water benders as well as those who identify as Ravenclaws. 
Mannerisms: 
moving in a graceful and almost water like fashion
their presence and posture is softened but firm
definitely coffee people, but prefer it iced no matter the season and with lots of cream
love the snow in winter and the beach in summer. (obviously feel very drawn to bodies of water)
don’t mind and actually enjoy boat rides/don’t get seasick
usually lean but not too thin. appear toned and exercise well
soft skin that’s always moisturized
aren’t picky eaters and can pretty much eat whatever
are voracious readers
exceptionally good kissers 
core aesthetics:
beach core (obviously)
minimalism
light and dark academia (sometimes. it depends on the person)
Earthbenders: Earthbenders are stubborn, driven, and cunning, although earth benders can span a large variety of people. 
Personality: Earthbenders are unique in that they usually don’t have a few set personalities that they identify with, however most of them share a lot of the same traits. They’re often realists, and see situations for what they are. They’re extremely tactical, and have firm, set ways of doing things. They like routine, and like water benders, always have a plan. They’re even more driven though, and often push themselves and others to succeed and fulfill their plans. They’re precise and intentional, and often don’t do things just for the sake of doing/trying them. They prefer to stick to what they know works best. They can be introverted, extroverted, or ambiverted, (like I said, a very diverse group of people). Although they are very grounded and emotionally stable people, this makes them reliable and a good confidant. They’re decisive and strong in their beliefs. They tend to excel in craft work that’s repetitive, like ceramics, fiber arts, and sculpture, self made business, and analytical fields that involve planning and linear progression of hierarchy. Law is also a common career path seeing as they have a tendency to be unbiased and able to make decisions. They are most common amongst earth zodiac signs and Slytherins are the most common, although some may feel they identify more with one of the other houses since earth benders in an of themselves are a diverse group of individuals
mannerisms/characteristics:
surefooted and agile. rarely trip or stumble
enjoy workouts with weights/lifting
strong/stocky build. muscular
don’t like tall buildings, airplanes, or heights in general
large appetite. Like, they eat a lot
like going barefoot (@ toph)
late nights up studying
don’t willingly accept help a lot
strong arms and hugs/cuddles
square hands with short fingers
actually keeping a planner
loving spring and summer
love wearing all sorts of rings and bracelets
core aesthetics:
forrest core (think northwest of the us and dense forested regions)
sage green (that’s literally it)
punk/hard rock
organized clutter core (having things be cluttered, but knowing exactly where everything is)
Firebenders: Firebenders are natural born leaders. They’re always leading, and are excellent at commanding as well as instructing. 
Personality: These individuals unlike earth benders, are fueled by their emotions and passion. They’re also quite driven, but instead of being driven by logic, they’re often driven to do things based on their emotions. This can be a weakness, but it also makes them stronger. Once fire bending is mastered the correct way, fire benders are often very skilled at channeling and controlling these emotions. They are also brave and courageous and have a strong heart. They in the end always strive to do best and once their moral compass is pointed in a certain direction, they’ll follow it to the ends of the earth. They’re also extremely loyal, making them wonderful friends and confidants. Most of the people in this group tend to associate with fire zodiac signs, and the Gryffindor house although there’s also a large group that tends to identify as Slytherins as well. They excel obviously in leadership positions, but also specifically in law and criminal justice as their strong sense of right and wrong leads them to make the right decision most of the time. Like their opposite element benders, they share a distinct ability to teach just like water benders. They're often introverted and need time to recharge their social battery. 
mannerisms/characteristics:
hating getting wet
always warm
love cardio and workouts that make you sweat a lot
strong looking (honestly most fire benders seem to have an ideal body type) 
drink their coffee black un ironically without trying to be unique
can’t keep a plant alive to save their life
love summer
need good lighting to survive
surprisingly decent at cooking
don’t often procrastinate
loves cinnamon in cookies and cayenne in savory dishes
can be susceptible to fits of emotions
good in bed. (in general ;)) 
have obscure interests and hobbies (tea making, calligraphy, candle making, the list goes on)
Core aesthetics: 
DARK ACADEMIA QUEENS/KINGS
city core
royalty core
Airbenders: Airbenders are warm, compassionate and loving. Their strong sense of detachment from life on earth make these people very different, but interesting to be around. 
Personality: Airbenders come from the versatile element of air making them very versatile people themselves. They’re adaptable to change like water benders, but often these changes rely solely on creativity and not planning. Their commitment to live free of earthly detachment also makes these people very religious and spiritual people. Unlike earth benders, this detachment can often lead to indecisiveness and unsureness. Airbenders can often see pros and cons to both sides of a debate and it can be hard for them to make concrete decisions. Airbenders also don’t like confrontation or commitment, and will often choose to evade threats and sometimes even responsibility unless it’s absolutely necessary that it be dealt with. Nevertheless, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, and often times, air benders are able to deal with things in a non violent and peaceful way. They often are in a daydream, and most have big, bright ideas solely based on how much these people think. They often are kind towards everyone, and will make a point to be respectful, especially to nature and animals. They have a strong sense of who they are, and are often intuitive. They’re unique ability to create makes them gifted artists and performers, as well as spiritual and religious leaders. They can also be gifted writers and mentors to young children and students. Most are introverted, and prefer to spend time with themselves, as often times it’s the most rewarding. Most people in this category find themselves under air zodiac signs, (especially Libras) as well as the Hufflepuff house. (Although some may identify more with Ravenclaw, like Yangchen) 
Mannerisms/Characteristics:
you’d expect them to be graceful, but these people are clumsy as fuck. all. the. time.
despite being clumsy, they are great dancers, and often enjoy forms of dance as exercise as well as yoga
meditate/pray a lot
certified day dreamers
immerse themselves in fantasy worlds and fandoms in general
love sweets (especially any type of sweet filling in a pie crust)
use a lot of blankets
talk really fast when excited 
good with animals
love a good scented candle/incense
tea all the way
could spend HOURS cooped up in their room doing absolutely nothing
feel best during the fall season
could pack everything they need into a suitcase and leave within half an hour and not come back for months
cry at movies
will memorize and recite poetry because they want to
awkward but will honestly treat u right
good cuddlers
Core Aesthetics:
cottage core
art kid core
soft girl/boy
angel core

Romantic: Junmyeon x Reader
Genre: fluff and happy endings; two literature teachers with feelings
Word Count: 2.5k
Note: y’all Suho has me feeling some kind of way & i just had this idea for this drabble (is it really a drabble? i went overboard lol) because i have been reading SO MUCH bc such is the life of an English major. so like... brace yourself for some total nerd talk? writing this was so much fun 
"Why aren't we together?" Junmyeon's gentle whisper draws your attention away from the novel you have been annotating in preparation for your Gothic Literature lecture.
How long has he been standing there? You wonder, looking up to find him sitting in the chair on the other side of your desk. A cup of coffee stands tall to the right of your mug that has long gone cold. He brought you coffee from that cafe down the street again. Raising his eyebrows, he takes a long sip of his drink-- probably green tea-- and you notice that his glass is half empty. 
Oh. He's been here for a while. 
"I'm sorry." You smile, embarrassed, while closing the book. As if they threaten to distract you from Junmyeon, you turn over your notebook to free yourself from the gaze of your scribbled handwriting. "I didn't know you came in. You should have said something sooner."
"Ah, I know better than to distract you from reading," he begins as though he hadn't done just that moments ago. Setting his cup down at his feet, he leans across your desk, takes your book into his careful hands, and grins. "Frankenstein. Again." 
Reddening at his quiet teasing, you explain, "It's for the class I'm teaching this afternoon."
He returns the book and, tapping on the title, he points out, "You didn't need to reread this. It is definitely one of your most frequent reads, so you know it like the back of your hand."
Just a few years your senior, Junmyeon is the youngest Associate Professor in the university's Literature Department. While your other superiors have taken a polite interest in your potential as the newest Assistant Professor, none are quite as interesting to talk to as Junmyeon. He is intelligent, well-spoken, and-- quite frankly-- charming. 
His charms have little to do with his handsome face, perfectly styled black hair, or impeccable wardrobe (he looked like a literature professor in an almost fictional sense); they are more like personality traits that are expressed when he brings you coffee, when his knuckles knock on your door to ask if you will proofread the draft of his dissertation as if you are an intellectual equal, when hie tilts his head and thoughtfully furrows his brow after asking your opinion on the Drama Department Productions he insists on watching at your side. 
And now-- now he expresses his charm by winking, thus wordlessly reigniting a feud that was born soon into your first meeting. While your studies focus on Gothic Literature, his are dedicated to Romantic Poetry-- the poetry that boasts about individualism, idealizes nature, and details spiritual, emotional, and physical passions. Although your thesis explored Gothic themes as an extension of those Romantic ideals, you and Junmyeon have fallen into a habit of playfully arguing as if your fields are at odds. 
"I won't apologize for having good taste. I'll stick to my Gothic horror stories." You reach to pull the book out of his reach. Holding the book safely in your lap, you bite back a mocking grin. "And you can stick to your Romantic--"
"Ah, there it is," he jabs an accusatory finger at you. "There's your air of superiority. I hate to remind you--" his smirk assures that he is all too happy to say-- "that your idol Mary Shelly and mine, Mr. Percy Bysshe Shelley, experienced the most passionate of loves. That means our areas of expertise must be somehow compatible."
Calling Mary Shelley your idol is perhaps an exaggeration, although you do admire her for writing Frankenstein, but you don't argue with Junmyeon about that. Instead, sounding very much like the youngest person in the room, you say, "I wouldn't really say that I ship Mary and Percy--" Junmyeon gasps, flattening his hand over his chest, over his beige vest. "I mean, their union was kind of scandalous. Mary was only, like, 16, and Percy's wife was pregnant--"
"It was true love!" Junmyeon claims. 
You disagree, but you don't want to dissuade him from such a harmless conviction.  You opt to joke, "Well, that's very Romantic of you." 
Junmyeon often gripes about his students' tendency to confuse romantic (themes related to love) and Romantic (a particular movement in Literature), so you expect him to glare at you. He tries to, but he quickly succumbs to the desire to laugh at your pun. 
"Okay. That was a good one."
No, you think, it wasn't. But Junmyeon has a particular interest in what you would call 'dad jokes,' so it is only fitting that he should wipe amused tears from his eyes as he recovers from his laughter. 
As you set to drinking the coffee he had been kind enough to bring for you, he asks, "Did you actually hear what I asked you earlier? Were you just stirred from your studies by the sound of my voice? Or are you just politely withholding your answer?"
"Hm?" 
He asked something? 
A faint blush dusts over the bride of his nose as his gaze flickers to your bookshelf that is overflowing with textbooks, novels, and film adaptations of select works. He studies the shelves-- wheeling his chair closer to them so he can trace his fingers along the titles-- although he already knows their contents. From the shelf, he plucks a small artificial skull, a reference to a scene from Hamlet, and he turns it over in his hands.
He is uncomfortable. Not enough to leave your office, but enough to fix his eyes on the skull to avoid your curious stare. 
It is clear that you shouldn't ask him to repeat the question, so you close your eyes and will the memory to the surface of your mind. What did he say to catch your attention? 
'Why aren't we together?'
You must have dismissed it because you didn't understand its meaning. Together? In this moment, you are. You sit together in the same space talking about things that (although matter little to the rest of the world) are important to each of you. What other togetherness could Junmyeon want? 
"I'm not trying to avoid answering," you say when the silence has endured far too long. "I just don't quite understand what you asked." 
Gingerly placing the skull back on the shelf, he turns to face you. "I asked you why we aren't together." When you blink at him, confused, his discomfort dissolves into amusement. Laughter crinkles his eyes, and he exclaims, "You really know nothing about Romance!"
You are too grateful that his moody spell has passed to take genuine offense at his remark. "I know plenty! You're just not very good at explaining what you mean." 
"I wasn't aware that I need to spell it out." His eyes glitter as they always do when he is ahead; he usually is ahead. "We understand each other. We share the same passions, the same interests, the same hobbies. Yet we aren't so similar that it's boring to spend time together; otherwise, we wouldn't have these long chats, and we wouldn't attend plays together, and we wouldn't be going to that art exhibit after classes today."
Anybody else might be unnerved by Junmyeon's habit of speaking in essays, but you embrace the challenge of following his point. Nodding him along, you quietly wait for his monologue's conclusion. You do not try to predict where his thoughts will lead. 
"We spend a lot of time together, and we enjoy that, or at least I enjoy it." 
If he would break to breathe, you would assure him that you do enjoy his company. He keeps speaking, though. 
"Often-- more often than not-- we are together. And when I went home alone last night after we left the bookstore, I wondered why we aren't together. Afraid that I might make you uncomfortable, that I might ruin our relationship as it is, I decided that I should keep that question to myself. When I saw you sitting there, so deep in thought, and beautiful, I couldn't do it, though. I couldn't bury the question. I wondered aloud why you are not my girlfriend."
As if he hasn't ended his speech by dropping a bomb, Junmyeon's eyebrows shoot up, anticipating a response. Your replies are usually swift. Most of your time is spent quietly reflecting on a variety of questions. Usually, Junmyeon's questions are mere verbalizations of matters you have already considered. Usually, your answers are mere verbalizations of previously reached conclusions. Usually, his questions do not stun you into silence. 
"Well," you stutter, and Junmyeon gawks at witnessing you jumble words for the first time. "I-- you know-- first of all-- I never imagined that someone like you would want someone like me." 
Expecting that there must be more to your perspective, Junmyeon limits his reaction to a downward jerk in the corner of his mouth. However, as he realizes that you aren't prepared to say anything else, he leans forward in his seat, lowers his eyebrows, and his typically calm voice jaggedly confesses, "I don't know what you mean. What is the difference between 'someone like you' and 'someone like me?'"
"Just look at you!" You cover your face as soon as the words have blurted out of your mouth. Keeping your hand over your eyes so you don't have to see his reaction to your outburst, you continue, "Aside from the fact that you're much more beautiful than I--"
Uncharacteristically, Junmyeon interrupts. "I disagree." 
"Wait your turn." You drop your hand to shoot him a warning glare. "You'll derail my train of thought." 
"Some trains should be derailed." He crosses his arms over his chest. "I am not more beautiful than you. Even if I were-- and I am not-- that is no reason why we shouldn't be together. Appearances shouldn't matter."
It's impossible to decide if you're blushing more because of Junmyeon's insistence that you are beautiful or because you have said something so shallow. Reaching again for his drink, he gestures for you to continue your response. 
"Um, appearances aside, you are older than me. You're smarter--"
"I disagree," he repeats shortly. A line deepens between his eyebrows. "I'll concede that I am more educated, but that does not mean that I am more intelligent."
You allow, "be that as it may, you are technically my superior. I am an Assistant Professor, and you are an Associate Professor."
Junmyeon replies, obviously disheartened by your response so far judging by the slumping of his shoulders, "There is no dating ban among faculty." 
"That's not the issue." Your face burns. "I'm just-- I'm trying to explain that we aren't together because I have never considered that you were interested in anything other than a professional acquaintanceship."
Laughing, he repeats, "Acquaintanceship." He smiles fondly while joking, "I've heard of friend-zoned, but never acquaintance-zoned." Once he is no longer amused, he admits, "I do want more than a professional acquaintanceship, and I want more than a friendship." 
As your blush deepens, he leans back into his seat, flustered. "I understand if you don't feel the same way. Take all the time you need to explore your feelings, but if you decide that you don't want me, don't let it be because of something silly like thinking you're not pretty enough or smart enough or--"
"I didn't say that I don't want you." Your argument is brief but stable. Now it is Junmyeon's turn to sit back and blink at you. "I said I don't understand why you want me. That is not the same as saying that I don't want you." You bite your tongue just short of professing, 'I have every reason to want you.' 
Understanding at last, Junmyeon closes his agape mouth. Moments pass in silence as you try to decide whose turn it is to speak. 
Junmyeon claims it is his. "I don't think I can explain it well with words, but I think-- I think I can show you over time. I think it will make more sense once I am your boyfriend." 
You are not sure what he means, and you are too struck by his stutter to press him for an elaboration. 
If you are honest, you will admit that it doesn't matter why Junmyeon wants to be together. It doesn't matter if he changes his mind first thing in the morning with the rising of the sun. This moment of being on the same page at the same time, of sharing the same gaze, is infinite. 
"I'm not expected to dress up for our date tonight, am I?" You rise to your feet, clutching your notebook in one hand and Frankenstein in the other. "I don't think I'll have time to change between class and the art exhibit."
Junmyeon beams as he stands. While sipping his green tea, he carries your coffee and walks with you to your classroom. "I think you look lovely as you are." 
He sets your drink down on your desk. Content that there are no students or other professors nearby-- cautious not because he cares who sees but because he respects your modesty-- he brushes a gentle kiss against your cheek while you are busy troubleshooting the testy projector. 
Gasping, you reach to trace your fingers against your cheek, and he laughs at your reaction to his first act of affection. "There's one reason why I am falling in love with you." He points at your growing smile, careful not to discuss intimate matters too loudly now that you aren't tucked away in your office. "I have never known anybody so expressive."
As much as you enjoy the fluttering of your heart, you are eager for Junmyeon to leave so you can finish preparing for class. Stealing a glance at your watch, you ask, "Don't you teach that Wordsworth class right about now?"
He dreamily props his head up on your desk, gushing, "How romantic-- you already know my schedule!" His playfulness quickly fades, and he strains to catch the time displayed on your wrist. "What time is it?"
"3:30."
He gasps, "I'm late!" And darts out of the room. 
Just as you are catching your breath, just as you are realizing that you are Junmyeon's girlfriend, that this otherwise boring Tuesday now marks the start of something new and exciting, his head pokes back through the doorway. "Hey, let's drive to that exhibit together, okay?"
You are about to scold him for keeping his students waiting and for distracting you from your work, but you falter at the sight of his sparkling smile. Besides, if you argue, he will stay longer; although that is exactly what you want, that is not the responsible option. You nod, "Okay. I'll see you after class."
"See ya!" He waves and sets off to his classroom two doors down, where you hear him announce to his students, "Sorry I'm late! I had romantic matters to tend to."
You can vividly imagine his clever grin as his students are split between guttural groans and pity-laughter. As you smile, you wonder when you started to fall in love with Junmyeon.

“Hello! I do hope you don't mind sending this in here since it's very long but I was wondering if I may have a matchup from parts 1-5 if that's okay with you?(not sure if I've sent you a request before but yes-) 
I’m a 5”2 skinny but not too skinny, cis female who has ADHD, my personality type is INTP and my zodiac sign is Aquarius(actually it's pretty funny how my natal chart is Aquarius dominant) My hair is naturally black but I kinda dyed it and now its chestnut brown(at the roots and the lower portion of it looks like this blonde brown of the sorts bc I bleached it last year), basically what my tumblr icon shows. I’m very passionate about certain things like art or anything that basically gets me thinking and all. I draw a lot and though I don’t usually show it, I really care about my friends and loved ones despite being space brained and all. I’m very curious and willing to help my friends or loved ones out whenever the time arises.
I also play a couple few instruments as well; ukulele, piano, flute, bell lyre and acoustic guitar but I’m still learning and I sing as well. People think that I’m very smart but I’m not super smart considering that math happens to be my kryptonite. I used to do taekwondo and some track and field before but I don’t brush up on those anymore and I play Volleyball for fun and I'm terrible at dancing(the kind of dancing Narancia does.)I happen to do cosplay as well and I’m also a beginner witch who mainly uses tarot cards and I’m getting pretty good at it, at least! I also do some casual cooking from time to time but not always. I'm also learning italian as my third language!(Filipino is my native language, English is second)
I’m not a big fan of loud and over populated places because everything is just overwhelming for me since I’m an empath (but it's kinda ironic because I'm very hyper and probably loud with my close friends and I'm very expressive---I'm basically a walking contradiction lmao). So, at times and I’m always seen wearing my headphones or doodling away on my sketchpad or scrolling through my phone or playing games. I don’t usually talk about what goes on in my head but when I do, things are that bad. I happen to be that kind of friend who will either spoil you to death in any way I can or tease you but nothing too extreme. Some of my friends even think I’m very motherly/big sis figure, protective, chill, caring and wise, basically the ride or die kind of friend mixed with aesthetics, conspiracy theories and a whole lotta weird but still good! I also like memes and play some video games from time to time but I'm no super gamer.
I try to plan things before I do them, especially if it has the feelings of someone that I care about. I will admit, I have my downsides and dark side as well(willing to manipulate someone and exploit their weaknesses) but despite these, I can guarantee you that I won’t blabber about it to anyone unless you did something personal to me and my friends. I’m not very emotional because I have the tendency to run out of tears and my chest will feel heavy, the same goes for getting very frustrated as well because it usually ends up in tears. I rarely get angry, like blackout angry but when I do, things are that bad and despite said anger, I still try to calm myself despite feeling my knees starting to wobble but my thoughts are nowhere kind. Hope this helps at least! (Sorry for sending this here ;w;)”
Since you sent this via dm, I’ll answer it like this!
I match you with...
JOTARO! (Specifically 4taro)
Tumblr media
You two would make a great match mainly because you share quite the similarities. Just like you he hates crowded places and doesn’t really speak his mind unless you’re 1. close to him and 2. the situation is more or less bad. He too enjoys things that makes him put his mind to work and wouldn’t be opposed to having a few good ol’ intellectual talks with you either. He doesn’t mind that you don’t show your true feelings too often because he totally understands you giving that he’s pretty similar when it comes to self expression, although his actions definitely always speak louder. Jotaro does also appreciate your empathetic side and your desire to help people out because he finds it to be both alluring and quite cute sometimes, not to mention that I have a slight feeling that you may or may not be able to read his feelings most of the times which would be pretty much ideal for him. However, you may wanna tone down your teasing and spoiling (or not) since, as stoic as he usually is, this man can and will blush and stumble over his words whenever you pull another one of your antics. But rest assured for he secretely does enjoy being spoiled and having someone else take care of him, and he will always return the favor anyway. Akin to you he isn’t too emotional but he’d definitely notice the early signs whenever you’d be getting angry and so Jotaro would do all in his power to try to calm you down.
He does find your hobbies to be interesting as well and would actually be highkey touched if you ever decided to play/sing something for him. He’d also be intrigued by your witchy self and would want to find out more about tarot cards giving that he’s a man of science who’s so very used to facts and evidence. He really wouldn’t mind finding out about stuff that aren’t “scientific” for once. Another thing that Jotaro would highkey love at you but would definitely be too shy to admit is the fact that you’re strong and know how to defend yourself. It’s both attractive and reassuring to him since he always stresses about protecting his loved ones to the best of his abilities and such. On his days off, Jotaro would totally attempt to cook new recipes alongside you because, while he isn’t near terrible in the kitchen, he has little time to practice on his cooking skills and would find it cute as fuck if you ever tried teaching him anything.

Request: Hi, may I have a BNHA matchup, please? I'm a 164 cm tall, 18yrs slim bi girl. I have short brown hair and brown eyes. I wear black eyeglasses. I like skirts and dresses, in one word: girly clothes. Light makeup. I'm a very-very critical person and proud of that. Loyal, patient and caring one. Clumsy af. I mean really, really clumsy. I love to share my opinion about anything. I can be really silent and serious at times, dreamy. Pretty good at massage. Not so romantic. Often bottle up my feelings. Realistic. I like alcohol and occassionally one cigarette. One of the hardest things to make me talk about my problems. Hate to seem weak or seen crying. Into hanging out with my friends. Have an ironic, troll-sense, sometimes dark humour. I want to become a lawyer. The most important thing in my life is family, I love them soo much. My greatest fear is being betrayed; hardly trust anybody and also has a bit fear of commitment. Selfish. Enjoy debates. Need my alone time and a lot space. Lowkey would be into a bit cuddly one(yeah, I am needy but would never admit that huh). Not fond of PDA, but not completely against it(short hugs, forehead kisses maybe). Easily get flustered and jumped/pranked as well. Deep conversations are MUST, but otherwise adaptable, since I know it can get bit hard with me.Virgo. Hobbies/interest: classical literature,yoga,running,politics,reading, listening to music, arts, theatre,sightseeing, hiking,horse riding,like to try new things. Ty and congrats
Before I start: This is a veeryy long one, because I really wanted to discuss as many points you mentioned as possible. I hope that that’s okay! Also thank you for congratulating me!! ^^ I still can hardly wrap my head around it tbh. Anywayyy onto the matchup. Enjoy reading! ^^
xxx Rainbow
(Btw: I still take requests for matchups!! Before you request one, please read this post first ^^)
This was interesting,,,, I honestly felt like you’d be compatible with multiple characters, buuuttt I decided to go wiiith…
Dabi!! :D
Tumblr media
Listeeennnn
First of all: no it won’t be easy, but every relationship has some bumps in the road.
He would lowkey adore the girly style you have. He probably doesn’t really see it often with the people he’s surrounded by, so seeing you is like a breath of fresh air to him. It makes his day a little better.
I also think that he’d like your critical attitude, since he seems to be the same way. (I mean, he follows Stain’s ideals) He doesn’t really like people who blindly do whatever without properly thinking about it beforehand.
Your loyalty is another thing Dabi loves. I feel like you two wouldn’t be able to see or hang out with each other that much with his profession as well as his reputation, so the fact that you can handle that puts him at ease. However, at times he will still get insecure, wondering why you would choose a villain like him when there are people who can give you what you deserve.
Your patience…. He’s starting to think you are an actual angel, because I think Dabi may be hard to deal with at times. He does not open up about his private life easily, I mean barely anyone knows canon things about him, and it might get to a point where you actually lose your patience, but he still appreciates how you’re able to handle him for so long. He will also understand if you become fed up, but he won’t open up all of a sudden because of it,
Dabi will make fun of your clumsiness, but it secretly is something he likes. He secretly enjoys protecting you (if you are not in a life or death situation), so whenever he catches you when you almost trip, his heart will beat a tiny bit faster than usual.
Okay, your massages are truly a gift to him. There is no doubt in my mind that this man will be so so soo tense after a long day at work, and when he feels your hands doing their work it’ll put his mind at ease.
Part of him is glad that you aren’t very romantic, I can’t imagine Dabi really being super romantic. Maybe, if he found out his s/o was like that he would try, but it isn’t really in his nature. Of course he won’t be completely stoic, he’s just low key.
Dabi will have trouble with you bottling up your feelings. On one hand, he will probably do it as well so he can understand why you do it, but at the same time he does want you to be honest with him. At times he will get frustrated and if that’s the case he will make sure you know, but he also won’t force you to open up because he would hate that too.
He probably drinks and maybe smokes too? Idk. Will be chill about it if he doesn’t tho. It’s your life, he’s not gonna tell you what to do and what not to do. But, when it comes to your problems, he kind of wants you to tell him about them. Again he won’t force this either, but if he can tell something is off he will hug you, letting you know he’s always there for you without explicitly saying it (bc boi he hates doing that lol)
Dabi lives for your humour. He probably enjoys other people’s reactions to your jokes even more and it definitely brightens his day if he hasn’t been feeling well for a while.
His opinion on what you wanna do in the future can go two ways. Either A, he thinks it’s stupid, since often times places such as court rooms, police departments etc can be corrupted. On the other hand, he knows what kind of person you are and would know that you’d be able to do justice to so many people who need it and cannot handle trials by themselves.
I think Dabi can understand your fears and he probably has those too. That’s exactly why you can trust him. He isn’t the type to just start a relationship, so the fact that he’s with you says a lot.
100% Dabi is cuddly too but won’t admit that either. At times one of you two has to swallow their pride and initiate some physical affection, so that will definitely be interesting to say the least.
You get easily flustered? hah, you bet Dabi will purposefully throw compliments or remarks at you at any time, just to see that adorable reaction of yours every single time. Of course he will know the limits, might push a little too far sometimes but he will definitely stop, because his intention isn’t to actually upset you. Also, there is always truth behind his flirtatious remarks :)
Deep conversations with him won’t happen immediately, Dabi just is not like that. After getting through him however, he will open up and actually really enjoy those conversations. He sees it as a form of intimacy, and that’s why he treasures that even more.
Overall, your relationship with Dabi won’t be easy, but it’s definitely a very special one :D

interaction guide for emile! 
last edited: april 6th, 2021
          emile ... my sweet baby boy. he’s an extremely friendly muse all around, and while he seems like he’d crumple at the first sign of danger, emile has surprisingly good fight or flight instincts. there’s a part of him that can work well under pressure, so when the world literally is on fire, emile will unexpectedly take charge and call the shots. of course, that’s when the pressure is really on — for the most part, emile is extremely non-confrontational and is perpetually stuck in a loop of ‘what am i doing with my life?’ as he wakes up everyday to a job he doesn’t care for. he makes the best of things, however, and finds pleasure in the simple things. he especially loves being out in nature, so that’s where he’ll truly be himself. in terms of his love life, he’s trying — that’s all i can really say on the matter. he’d be a good boyfriend, though, once things get serious; my sources have confirmed this. 
          supernatural plots — boy howdy, does emile befriend supernatural beings easily! i’m not sure what it is, but he really has a history of forming meaningful relationships with those who aren’t human, and it might just stem from the fact he thinks they’re incredibly interesting so long as, you know, they aren’t trying to kill him. so throw your magical girls, your aliens, your monsters, your non-human muses at emile because boy howdy is he down for the shenanigans and the adventure that comes alone with befriending these muses. he will absolutely literally be so fascinated by them and not give them grief if they’re nice to him !!! if they try to kill him, boy howdy will he be ready to run for his life because emile is already scared of everything and now he gotta run to save his ass. 
          family friendly wholesome plots — emile + children is literally one of the best things on this blog. i say this for like two other muses on this blog too but c’mon, emile and kids literally get along so well, how could i not suggest this possibility too in an interaction guide for him? he’s one of best babysitters and would love to interact with young muses, even if they aren’t small children but still quite young. even tween/teenagers might get along with him ( though if they’re going through some angst, he’s gonna be ... a lil awkward )
          nature/camping/plant plots — i mentioned that emile loves being out in nature, and this has long been the case since he was young. i make fun of him by saying he’s like an overgrown boy scout just because he has so much knowledge about the outdoors and camping from years of doing things like hiking. he also has a green thumb; really loves himself a nice plant. so here are some plots where your muse: 
needs a camping/hiking buddy and invites emile ( pre-est relationship most likely )
meets emile at a campsite ( first meeting type of plot ! )
is a camp counselor at a summer camp and emile is your co-counselor/head counselor and yall gotta take care of all these fking kids together for a whole summer 
works at a plant nursery/floral shop and they always see emile come in bc he hoards plants and loves to buy fresh cut flowers, either for himself or his sister, alison bc she loves flowers too 
just ... talks to emile about his plants casually or asks him for advice on why their plant isn’t doing so well 
needs a new trail mix/energy bar recipe and asks emile ( a neighbor? a friend? someone who is also looking at recipe books in a book store? ) if he has any
          art/photography/music plots — like his sister, emile dabbles in a lot of hobbies too and he shares a lot of those with alison. the biggest differences lie in the fact that while alison favors watercolor painting or body art with acrylics, emile prefers sketching with paper/pen and paper. similarly, while alison mainly plays the piano, emile plays the violin. photography is something both siblings share, though emile likes to take pictures of landscaping in addition to portraits. here are some plots where your muse:
needs a photographer for their *insert special event here* and hires emile 
needs a violinist for their *insert fancy event here that requires live music* and hire emile
asks emile for violin lessons 
wants to play pictionary with emile and that’s how they learn that emile can draw really well
          “what even is emile’s romantic life” plots —  my boy really tries to fall in love, okay. he tries, but it’s not that easy for him when you take into account how he’s not really out of the closet to a lot of people in his life and how he generally just has terribly luck with romantic relationships in general. this started back in high school, and it really doesn’t do much for his self esteem when it come to dating. it kind of puts dating on the back burner for him, really, especially since he isn’t in the best place in his life at the moment to find a serious relationship, but he still likes to try and go on dates once in a while, and he’s trying to learn to embrace the fact he isn’t straight. so here are some plots where your muse: 
bothers emile a lot about why he doesn’t have a girlfriend and plays matchmaker/tries to teach him how to talk to girls because that’s what you think the problem is 
gets set up on a blind date with emile and it either goes really well, or it goes really badly. plot twist: you two used to know each other somehow ( high school, community college, work before one of yall left the office, camp a while back, ect ). 
plays a supportive role in helping emile discover his sexuality ( can be in high school or afterwards ). your muse can either be super helpful or super intrusive and it makes emile suffer but, you know, your muse has good intentions. this “help” can be your muse sharing their experiences with emile, taking him out to lgtbq+ spaces to help him embrace this side of his identity, assuring emile that it’s not wrong to like the same sex, ect. they could also just take a balls to the wall crazy approach if that’s more their style, up to your tbh
          miscellaneous plots — here are some more random ideas in case you’re feeling stuck still! i’d like to remind everyone that my wishlist tag is always a great place to look too if you aren’t feeling what’s in the guide. i hope that the guide gives you an idea at least as to how you might approach a muse and what plots work well for them!
your muse offers to find emile a better job because they can tell he’s not loving his current job, so they offer him a helping hand. similarly, your muse offers to help emile go back to school because they wants to see emile succeed and be happy doing something in a field he actually cares about.  
office plots — your muse works at the same law firm as emile and shares an office space with him. please talk to him because emile needs a friend at work to make his job more enjoyable :’) 
high school plots — emile does have a high school verse like most of my other muses do. the bulk of what happens in high school involves emile discovering he’s not straight and being bullied for it for nate and cedric. on top of that, he’s witnessing his sister go through a really bad relationship, but with how secretive she is with things, it’s hard for him to intervene. there’s a lot of avenue for serious plots in this verse, but as with alison, lighthearted high school plots can also happen with emile! teenagers aren’t just full of angst, after all. sometimes we just need some shenanigans.
community college plots — instead of university, emile attends community college for a couple years to obtain his associates so that he can work as a legal assistant. he works odd jobs to keep himself afloat, and for the most part, he’s just vibing. 
werewolf verse plots —a post explaining the basics of this verse can be found here! in this verse, emile is considered a beta and spent his whole life practically raising his sister, alison. growing up, the siblings did not belong to a stable pack, and as such, they pretty much spent most of their life kind of living how they wanted. emile in this verse is just vibing, too. he’s not looking for a mate or for drama, he’s just trying to make sure his sister doesn’t get herself into trouble.           i’d like to re-emphasize that this is not a true omegaverse even though i do categorize muses as alphas, omegas, or betas, mention bonding between werewolves, nesting, heat/rut, and the use of suppressants to control the severity of heat. the description of these topics, however, are very tame as the focus of this verse is not unhealthy power imbalances or plotless smut. this verse exists bc werewolves are cool, and also because the idea of bonding between partners is where i find the most interest since true bonding really embodies the “to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until parted by death” sentiment in marriage vows except even to a more serious degree. so yeah — werewolves. have your werewolf meet mine. it’ll be fun.
