Guess what!! Time to do another personal rq!! WOHOOO!!!
(I love making your list longer anytime I have the smallest idea)
The reader went on to try and get a job - after getting declined time and time again they finally landed one! In theory the start was great, but they never got the training that was promised and was thrown to the hot water instantly, leading coworkers to start to hate them due to them not knowing what to do at all. Now, within 1 and a half months, the reader has had 7 panic attacks already, and feels like crying anytime they have to go - they have to endure it for at least two more weeks, but they find it hard to do without any sort of comfort or anything, and reader being reader, they didn't tell their partner - they were proud of them for getting a job, so why would they ruin that happiness by saying it's actually terrible? But out of 7 panic attacks, at least one had to be found out. The chances were too slim at this point, the more u cry the more you're likely to be found out. And now, the reader had a panic attack after their boss texted them another passive aggressive message regarding something they were meant to do, but again, no one told them that they were meant to do it, leading to more anger from the work environment.
If possible pls do my little guy my hamburger of the day Lyney!! 🫶 Other than that do whatever you'd like!! Hf!
multiple characters headcannons!
a shoulder to lean on.
characters: lyney, wanderer x gn!reader
author's note: so sorry this took kinda long but i hope you feel better soon :(( if you need anyone to talk to, or anyone to just listen, i'm here^^ either way, i hope you like this :)
Tumblr media
♡ Lyney
-was VERY proud of you at first because you got that job
-he was literally the #1 person who was rooting for you. even if nobody else was, HE was.
-and he noticed a bit of a change but didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable or in any case, feel like he was overthinking things
-so instead he didn't interrupt.
-until he saw you having a panic attack.
-"love? where are you? love— [name]! w-what- what happened... shh.. breathe..... breathe in, breath out. c'mon, with me." he tried to help calm down your breathing first, he didn't want you passing out or something to it was the first thing that came to mind.
-you slowly listened and as soon as you could talk, he asked you what happened, to which to told him everything. about the job, about the training, the colleagues, and most importantly, unfortunately, your shitty boss.
-"oh, my dear... i'm so sorry to hear that.. why didn't you tell me?.. wait, ignore that stupid question, i won't ask you anything now.. here, let me hold you..." he held you just as you were as fragile as glass that might just break with a wrong move. so he held you.
-he rocked you back and forth. he told you that you're not alone. he kissed the top of your head.
-he won't let you feel alone. he won't let you be alone. he won't allow you to think you're alone.
-"i'll fight this battle with you, mon amour... no matter how long it takes.." with a kiss to your forehead.
-he needs you to know that he cares for you as much as he does for his siblings, and that his heart aches breaks for you.
-he wants you to understand that you can trust him, no matter who other people see him as. "fatui lyney", "greatest magician in all of teyvat" because to you, he's just "lyney"
-he'll confront your boss once you feel calmer. 'Father' will get involved but you don't need to know that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
⑅ Wanderer
-was very happy for you once you got the job, but didn't show it too much.
-deep down he's proud of you so much.
-he realized that you act differently than you used to, and he tried to ask you about it, but you'd just shrug it off every time.
-you're not okay and he knows it but doesn't want to annoy you since he knows you hate it.
-but walking in on you having a panic attack was not something he had thought of, at all.
-he just slowly sat down next to you, trying to calm down your breathing and get you aware of your surroundings.
-"shh, let me hold your hand. breathe. slowly. i'm here. you're not alone. squeeze my hand if it makes you feel better. don't think about anything right now, focus on your breathing and me." his usual persona is gone now. he's serious.
-he WANTS to help you. he doesn't want to lose you like the rest. nahida had taught him many things because he's been there too.
-after you calm down a bit, he asks you what's wrong if you feel comfortable telling him.
-once you tell him, he feels his nonexistent heart ache for you. he wishes he could help you with a snap of his fingers. but he can only use his words.
-"i'll talk to you boss, don't worry, i'll tell him how much of a jerk he is, and how he should never breathe again— nevermind, do you need something? water, food, or something?" nobody knows about this side of him but when he shows it to you, you just know how much he actually cares.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
attempted to make lyney a bit longer for you
i hope you like it as much as me cuz i really like it
stay safe and healthy💗

This is not an attack on you at ALL I’m sorry for moving this to it’s own post I just have Opinions™️ and I need be weird about this book rq I’ll tag you anyway in case you’re interested like at all in my dumb little opinion @adrianfridge-main
I just woke up but DISAGREED Victor’s complaining was completely and utterly justified tbh (bro fucked up astronomically big time and as a result his entire family is dead, I think he’s earned the right to be in despair), Victor’s biggest flaw was the fact he stitched together a mass of corpses and brought it to life and then told nobody, Victor’s biggest flaw is avoidance – and part of that is understandable, it’s a common trauma response, but Victor should have been open about how he felt about Elizabeth, he should have worked through his feelings about his family and expressed them, he should have confronted what he did with the creature and told someone, told Clerval, Victor’s biggest flaw isn’t that he’s in despair, it’s that he rarely explains that despair to others – and it’s understandable why he doesn’t, but it’s still wrong, because that’s how he hurts people.
He keeps parts of himself hidden – as arguably represented by the creature himself. He begins to isolate himself for really the first time, he has a lot of space away from people he’s been around his entire life for really the first time, and it’s fairly safe to say that psychological things begin to build up, as he builds the creature, almost represented by him – whatever interpretation you have of these knew-found realisations can greatly vary depending on the reading of the book you have, but personally I think it’s mostly how he feels about himself and his family.
I don’t think Victor wanted to marry Elizabeth at all – and I’ll probably make a whole catch-all rant on that point soon enough, but I think once he actually begins to get some time in isolation to think about things, he starts thinking about his mother, he starts thinking about Elizabeth, he starts considering all these complicated feelings, that he genuinely does love his mother, but that she’s effectively forcing him into something he doesn’t want to do at all, surely she’d understand if he just explained – but she’s dead, he can’t explain, it’s too late for that. Would she have accepted his explanations in the first place, or would he have disappointed her? This was his mother’s only dying wish, the last thing she left to him, the last thing he had to remember her by – and I do believe Victor genuinely loved his mother, even if I’m also absolutely of the opinion that she was a terrible person. Instead of coming to a conclusion about this, Victor spirals, it builds up, he tells no-one – I don’t believe he would’ve told Henry – and this coincides with the creation of the creature. His dead mother’s final wish being the definitive thing haunting him, and the representation of his spiral and all of his emotions about that being a mass of sentient corpses – seems accurate.
Following this argument, Victor sees Clerval again after all those years, and he collapses from the weight of it all – he rants about it vaguely, but he hides it, and he continues to do so, ignoring it, and that’s when it slowly begins to become harmful, purposefully picking off the people he loves and hurting them.
It’s important to remember still, of course, that the monster isn’t metaphorical, he is real – it’s just that a lot of heights of Victor’s despair and tendency to spiral into his own thoughts coincide well with the “building” of the creature, or with him becoming more vocally demanding of Victor or harmful to his loved ones, so he tends to be a pretty good approximation for a physical representation of Frankenstein’s mental state and guilt. And effectively, Frankenstein desperately trying to hide the creature, fumbling with promises to make further mistakes to push him away only to come to the realisation that they’re wrong, but still having to deal with the consequences of them, instead of just from the start being open and honest, even if that honestly was “I need some time to think, and I don’t know how I feel right now.” – that’s his biggest flaw. And the people Victor hurts is really best represented through Elizabeth herself – I hold the very very strong opinion that Victor and Elizabeth are both victims of what was pretty basically just grooming, and again, avoidance is a very common trauma response, but Elizabeth tried to confront Victor on multiple occasions, sending that letter asking about how he feels about the marriage, saying it doesn’t need to happen if he doesn’t want it to – instead he misinterprets this as his poor dear cousin in despair second-guessing his affections for her, (very likely because of things his mother probably told him as a child), and decides to “put her mind at ease” by telling her that he will marry her, despite his actions saying completely otherwise and Elizabeth herself pretty openly not really wanting to marry him.
He’s gone through so much at this point, feels himself responsible for so many deaths, and decides the final thing he needs to do before he dies is not to be a disgrace to his parents as well, or any more of a disgrace than he already is, in his eyes.
And I also definitely have a queer reading of the novel – I genuinely do really hold to the interpretation of Frankenstein and Clerval’s relationship being romantic, and from there and concerning the creation of the bride, Henry really is effectively murdered as a punishment for Victor doubting the role given to him – almost like his doubts and guilt, as embodied by the creature, overwhelm him in that way. “Ah! my father, do not remain in this wretched country; take me where I may forget myself, my existence, and all the world.” He’s pushing away the memory of Clerval’s death, repressing it, avoiding it, and that is extremely important for how he shifts his tone with Elizabeth and puts up that fake demeanour of wanting to marry her, because he thinks it’ll make her happy even though both of them describe dreading the wedding, even given the context for Victor and even by Elizabeth, who doesn’t know what he dreads – in order to forget Clerval, he assigns himself to the role given to him as a child by marrying Elizabeth and gives up whatever he hope he had.
All possibly discouraged from Clerval being murdered as a response to Victor refusing to finish the Bride and subject her to the same fate as him and Elizabeth to the Creature, a pact made without her knowledge or consent, an arranged marriage. Where has spiting that tradition led him? Where has him standing up to the shroud of his mother’s dying wishes, hanging over him the entire novel thus far, led him, by refusing to force the Bride into an arranged marriage with the Creature, as he was with Elizabeth? To the death of the one man he truly loved. So, can at least “make his dear cousin happy” and not die spiting the one thing he was meant to do – make his mother proud from beyond the grave by marrying Elizabeth.
And even then, adding to my argument of the creature being a physical embodiment of Frankenstein‘s guilt and dread – that building tension approaching the wedding, Victor being convinced the creature is going to kill him, but he kills Elizabeth – that’s a metaphor if I’ve ever seen it.
Even on the subject of grieving Clerval, Victor won’t sort his feelings, he spirals and tries so desperately to avoid them. “We had resolved not to go to London, but to cross the country to Portsmouth, and thence to embark for Havre. I preferred this plan principally because I dreaded to see again those places in which I had enjoyed a few moments of tranquillity with my beloved Clerval. I thought with horror of seeing again those persons whom we had been accustomed to visit together, and who might make inquiries concerning an event.”
I wonder what would happen if he did go through London, if he did meet those people again. Would things have turned out differently? Would he finally have been given a sense of comfort and clarity through mutual grief, as nobody so far since Henry’s death and for the rest of the book, except the creature, ironically, has grieved for Clerval except for Frankenstein. If he met people who took as fondly to Clerval as he did, at least on meeting him briefly, who would have sympathy towards Victor – would he finally have that space to grieve for him in a healthy way, to be comforted by people who at least vaguely understand a fraction of his anguish?
But he doesn’t, and instead he avoids the subject – confining himself to his union with Elizabeth, and hurting her because of that.
And even to his grave, Frankenstein doesn’t stop to consider his feelings properly, and by that I mean he doesn’t sort them with anyone, he doesn’t admit the dread he feels surrounding his family and his late wife, he doesn’t stay with Ernest and talk through things with him, bonding to his last remaining family member in his grief – instead he spirals again, chasing the monster and telling no one, except for Walton. And even then, he doesn’t discuss, he monologues – he doesn’t talk through his emotions with a trusted friend, he “tells his story” to an eager man who is mostly overwhelmingly curious, rather than genuinely concerned.
Victor Frankenstein’s biggest flaw is not that he complains. It isn’t that he’s in despair – it’s that he won’t articulate that despair properly. It’s that he avoids it and keeps it hidden out of pain, but he shouldn’t. Because the subject of that despair actively effects the people around him, and by extension, his despair actively effects the people around him. Elizabeth is left hanging by a man who doesn’t truly love her and won’t talk to her, forcing her into a marriage she doesn’t really want out of duty. The creature is cast aside and abandoned, viewed mostly by Victor as a representation of his guilt and shame, of his worst mistakes, although he expresses feeling pity for it fairly often, he still hides and shuns it, fearing it. Clerval is murdered as a representation of that hope for a better future, the one man who ever truly loved him being snatched away, and instead of standing his ground, coming to the conclusion that he won’t abide by his mother’s wishes, that he was right in his destruction of the bride, grieving Clerval with those people in London and using his death as a catalyst to not let it happen again, perhaps then meeting Walton at a later date if he chose to stay in England or otherwise by chance under different circumstances, writing to Elizabeth telling her his true feelings and confronting the creature properly, pulling a Christine Daaé there except like. Parentally instead of romantically. and showing his creation sympathy and compassion rather than just feeling it, and being open about everything; instead of that, Victor spirals, and Victor hurts everyone left.
And it’s understandable why he does – it’s realistic. The hero doesn’t always know exactly what to do and magically save the day by making all the right decisions – people don’t know what do do or how to make all the right decisions. Victor isn’t just complaining “woe-is-me” style, Victor is in genuine severe psychological torment and distress, and his actions reflect that. He is, to an extent, a victim of circumstance – and his circumstances haven’t made things easy for him. In his grief over Clerval, he’s led back to Geneva by his father instead of through London, and follows easily. He’s forced into a situation where he has to marry his cousin by his mother, since young childhood. When he tries to be assertive in what he wants, he’s punished for it every time. In real life, people don’t fix their situation easily like a superhero and pull themselves on their feet like that. They don’t get over everything that’s ever happened to them easily. They need space – and Frankenstein did not have space. If he wanted to fix his life, he would have had to actively fight for it. And he didn’t have any fight left. He didn’t want to live. He didn’t have any idea of what to do next. He didn’t see a future. Any time he tried to fight against what was expected of him, he was punished for it, so now that his life was effectively over, all he wanted to do was assign himself to the roles he was “meant” to perform, and not disappoint his family.
But it’s still a flaw, and it still hurts people. Victor was still in the wrong for what he did. For avoiding everything, for building the creature to begin with, that was Victor’s fault. But it’s understandable why he does what he does, and he’s a very sympathetic character because of that.
Me waking up to immediately write an entire Frankenstein essay I shit you not I’m still in bed finishing this I literally just woke up and started typing half asleep until I finished it (haha funny Nosferatu reference):

I've been debating whether or not I should go public with this, but I don't feel comfortable calling myself anti radqueer anymore. I've spent time listening to RQs, and though there are definitely cases of 'yeah that person is fucked' a lot of them are just people trying to cope with the deck of cards they were given. So this is a RQ safe space, even if my older posts don't reflect that. I'm RQ neutral and pro transID. I never really cared about people earnestly being transID, but let my discomfort with 'transautistic' etc folks get the best of me... that changes now. I say this as someone who's """cis""" autistic, someone who has BIID, someone who is supposedly affected by RQ ideals. I know even being neutral on the subject will get me shit, but I would rather be honest. I'd rather get the mass unfollowing over with. Because how someone's atypical dysphoria manifests isn't my business, nor is somebody's coping mechanism. It's nobody's business but theirs, and something I see in anti spaces is just... a complete lack of understanding of that. I see some real gross shit from antis, all in the name of 'morality,' and it's something that I cannot align with anymore.
If you've read this far, and are considering unfollowing, I wish you the best. I'm not gonna tell you what to do, nor beg you to stay within my presence if it makes you uncomfortable. If you're an anti, and want to stick around, that's fine too; rest assured that this blog isn't going to be radqueer centered. However: anyone who 'infiltrates' spaces, sends harassment, etc is NOT welcome here, I don't care which side you're on. Thanks.

disclaimer: prev i am not attempting to call you out here specifically!! this isn't me trying to start discourse!!
I get the point that's being made here, but also I think that if disabled people are asking you to stop calling the one disabled character in the musical a freak (or even freaky with the special font) then just stop? it's not going to kill you to stop making one single joke about the character when there are so many other similar jokes you could make. like there's such a history of people calling disabled people freaks or freaky because of their disabilities that seeing the word in association with the disabled character obviously isn't going to be fun. even more so when he's literally being singled out as "the freak" of the group, which is basically what you've said here.
yes, all of the cast is unique and freaky in their own way, so why single out the disabled character? "constance freakwood" "mischa freakchinski" "ocean o'connell freakenburg" "ricky potts" like why not just call him "freaky potts"? why does he need to be separated from the rest of the choir and singled out? out of the entire choir, his name works best with the format!! if holding off on that joke would literally kill you then at least include him!
i know that on the surface, ricky's song is the weirdest by far. even noel's song isn't as weird as wanting to make love to anthropomorphic cats. and i'm not going to bother to delve into the actual theme and subtext of his song, because it doesn't really matter in this case.
the only point that i want to make is that it's unfair to single out the disabled character as "the freak of freaks", even as a joke, and especially when actual disabled people have asked you to stop. like did none of you listen to his backstory? he says after his song that "nobody ever listened" to him when he was alive, and you're going to do the same thing to the disabled fans of rtc?
i know that being called out isn't a fun experience. but when somebody is speaking from lived experience and asking you to stop doing something, then the best possible thing to do is to just stop. there's no point in trying to explain your thought process or defend your actions. chances are, they already understand why it happened, and it's still hurtful. be graceful, apologise (or even just stop! you don't need to make a big deal, just don't try and justify it and don't do it again!) and move on with your life.
all it takes is literally one word. and then as long as you actually take "sorry" to mean "i won't do it again" and not "oh shit i'd better get this guy off my back rq" you can go about your day, confident in the knowledge that you are a better person for it.
nobody can be perfect. nobody can predict that what they see as a light-hearted joke is going to have weight to somebody else. if your father was eaten by an octopus when you were younger and i made a joke about how much i'd like to be a man-eating octopus, it would probably upset you. i wouldn't be able to see that coming, but i would be able to control my response. this is the same concept. you might not understand why calling ricky potts a freak is funny, but it's so easy to stop once people tell you that it's hurtful! you don't need to relate in order to accommodate.
and look, if you've bothered to read through this entire thing and you disagree, feel free to let me know! i'm not going to come on here and rant on and on, and then ignore other people's points of view. so dm me or reblog, or just scroll past, i don't mind at all.
small rant about Ricky Potts from Ride the Cyclone
So yesterday, (or the day before) I saw a few posts that were like "RTC if they were ____" and it was usually "RTC if they were freaky" or "RTC if they were gay" aka changing their names like FREAKel (noel) and GAYcean (ocean)
But the thing is, they usually don't change Ricky's name, which in my opinion is pretty funny. But some people read this as making fun of his disability (since I'm pretty sure in the musical he's the only one with a physical disability and people are thinking they're calling him gay and freaky already solely because of that)
Honestly, it's really easy to see that Ricky is pretty freaky and funny character. He's unique, all of the cast is. But if you look into his personality you could tell that it's NOT about his crutches or his inability to speak (? that's what i remember it's been a while since I've watched RTC)
Like seriously, if he's singing about breeding space cats, thats kinda freaky yk.. plus even with the gay jokes, its OBVIOUSLY joking and not being homophobic or abelist at all. Hell, Noel is CAnONLY gay.
So basically in summary; It's Ricky's personality not his inabilitys that makes him a funny character, and the punchline of most jokes
Also he kinda reminds me of young sheldon in a way

may i rq obey me bros reaction to an mc whose a special fbi agent in the bau ? tyty
Tumblr media
Lucifer
Wasn’t expecting to receive an exchange student that had such an important role at such a young age. Plus, you might hold the key to achieving Lord Diavolo’s dream. In addition to that, you both look awesome in suits.
He would ask you about your job and what a typical work day would look like. When you tell him about some of the criminals you had to evaluate and the more gruesome crime scenes, he genuinely wonders what went wrong while God was creating man.
Once, he took you out on a dinner date and he was impressed by how well you were able to evaluate his psyche. Lucifer is the last person I’d describe as lovesick, but when he found out about your accomplishments and overall competence… he has fallen irreversibly in love.
Tumblr media
Mammon
Oh no. Not someone responsible and a borderline therapist! Luci, come pick him up. He’s scared. He doesn’t like how well you are able to read him based on his actions. It’s truly unsettling how you never take a break from analyzing behavioral patterns.
It’s funny whenever he comes running to complain to you about a shift and you’re just standing there like, “you think your job is hard?? You wouldn’t survive 5 seconds in my shoes!” You would often respond with your own experiences, what with all the gory crime scenes and criminals you had to evaluate.
Once, he took you out on a ride in his car and he was amazed at how well you were able to see the toxic relationship between him and his brothers. While you weren’t an actual therapist, you let him know that you would always be willing to lend an ear whenever he needed it.
Tumblr media
Leviathan
He would have thought you were so cool. They didn’t have a government organization like the FBI in the Devildom, so everything he knew about it was either from TV or you. For once, he doesn’t freeze up because if the conversation gets dry, he’ll ask about your job.
He’s seen a crap-ton of anime, right? Some of them belong to the horror genre. When you tell him about the horrors of your job, he’s not disgusted. Instead, he’ll slowly wrap his arms around you, asking if you get nightmares because of it. If you say yes, he’d suggest having him sleep in your room.
One day, he invited you to hang out in his room. It was quiet, but not the uncomfortable kind. In fact, both of you were watching a soft anime called ‘Orange’. You softly told him that regret was a common reason for committing a crime. You explained that grief manifested in different ways, sometimes destructive. It was intriguing to him.
Tumblr media
Satan
He also thinks you're admirable. He’s read about what you do in his murder mystery novels that he enjoys reading so much. He would ask you about the most disturbing cases you had to deal with. You would tell him about a typical day on the job. He was like a sponge whenever you told him anything.
He wants to hear all about your job. The good, the bad, the ugly… all of it. He will often bring books and ask how accurate the story was. It would make for great conversations between the two of you. You have a bunch of anecdotes, and he has two fully functioning ears to listen to you.
One day, he treats you to a dinner date at a new cafe. You both had been reading a new murrder mystery series that recently found its way to your favorite book shop. You both enjoyed getting away from HoL to revel in each other's company. Y’all would talk about what you thought of the book as well as anything else that came to mind.
Tumblr media
Asmodeus
If there’s one thing he knows about FBI agents, it’s that they can always pull off a tuxedo like nobody else can. So what does he do? Why, he makes suits for the both of you! Some suits match, others have elements that compliment each other. To him, it’s his way of telling the world that you’re his and he’s yours.
There will be a ton of self-care nights where both rant about anything that comes to mind. Asmo often found himself letting you do most of the talking. He gets to learn more about you by remaining quiet. For example, you are able to analyze patterns in certain crimes, furthering investigations by a significant amount.
Once, Asmo took you out on a shopping date for more fabrics and accessories for outfit ideas you had. On the way there, however, you looked in a nearby alley and saw crime scene tape and a police officer. You had a PTSD flashback and started hyperventilating. Asmo had to talk you through breathing normally and he quickly led you away.
Tumblr media
Beelzebub
Doesn’t know much about your profession, but he’s willing to learn! He’s probably seen a few crime shows while snacking, so he might have some sort of clue. As you both make a delicious snack in the kitchen, he’d ask you questions about what you did and why you chose this profession over everything else.
There will be a few nights where he invites you to his room and you don’t really do anything besides eat and talk. Beel is a demon of few words, so he will often let you rant about how your life is adjusting to the Devildom and how you either miss or don’t miss your Human Realm job.
One night, Beel treated you to lunch at a higher-end restaurant. He would continue to ask you about the things you’ve witnessed in your worst cases. You told him about the gruesome crime scene, the unstable criminals you had to evaluate. He didn’t eat dinner that night, nor for any of the other nights following.
Tumblr media
Belphegor
And here he thought all humans were weak. Well, physically, you are. But you have to be both mentally and emotionally ready to face what you do for work. He doesn’t know a ton about what you do, but he’s probably like Beel where he’s seen a few crime shows.
Many times, the others have caught you both wrapped up in each other’s arms, sleeping peacefully as though nothing was wrong with the world. However, he knows that you have nightmares. He can sense it even when he’s asleep. He often has to use his powers on you to get you a good night’s rest.
One night, you both were just hanging out in the attic when you told him something very personal. During your time as a BAU FBI agent, you were threatened, taunted, hurt, overwhelmed… but nothing prepared you for that day when Belphie decided to take your life. You told him that you were actually glad that you could join the souls you brought closure to, and that’s when he lost it. He let a few tears shed, whispering apologies left and right.

todo finding out that his s/o is takada-chan’s younger sister
Tumblr media Tumblr media
rq: Hey Ny👋 i would like to request something. Can you write a Drabble about Todo finding out that his s/o is Takada-chan’s younger sister? I thought it would be funny, you don’t have to do this but I appreciate it.🙏
characters: aoi todo x fem!reader.
warnings: just todo being overdose with his s/o and takada-chan. it's super fondness and funny + au. my grammar mistakes.
butler's remark: (^◕ᴥ◕^) hello lord, it's me with a fluff work as you might see. did his s/o a todo's type: man has a booty kink [if there is one], in any case, it's a short sketch. also, i couldn't find todo's image like gojo's one or itadori's so i apologize.
disclaimer: everything you read is purely my opinion - any detail, sketch, or event is a figment of my imagination.
Tumblr media
you knew your boyfriend was is a huge fan of your older sister, that's why you kept hiding your 'secret' from todo. not because he'd a clingy and be asking to get acquainted with her. you were waiting 'till your sister will have a concert whilst todo will be on the mission - what a shame to be probably on the other side of town when your idol is performing - the probability of such a coincidence is extremely small, but not equal to zero.
like now, when takada has her performance, todo is fighting over the special grade cursed spirit. he couldn't do anything but to exterminate the monster, so he could watch the takada's concert.
a few hours after your sister's concert, when your lover showed up on the doorstep of the house.
'i missed the concert. it was a rare occasion, it-' todo is standing in the door frame, sobbing as he missed the concert his idol. you never mentioned you like her or watching takada's shows on the screen, therefore, todo has to impress you with her. /if he knew she is your sister/
aoi todo - as i mentioned before - would be freak around you when nobody sees: his hands will wrap your waist all time, mostly in the evenings as both of you will be watching tv, but in reality, neither todo nor you ain't seeing what on the screen, mainly, you give each other warmth and hugs.
todo upset as he couldn't show you her concert. he sits on the couch in the living room, tossed his head.
'i wanted to bring you to the concert, so afterward we could have the memory'
'aoi..'
'whose concert?'
takada's head peeked out from behind the door frame leading into the kitchen as she came into the room with her stage persona [?]. todo is sitting there, looking at you, at her, not knowing what's going on.
'y/n, do you see what i see?'
you looked at your older sister, giggled. todo laid his elbows on his knees, put a chin on his fist, speculating on the situation. even being a grade first sorcerer, his brain is mushy as his capability to think straight is lost. todo could calculate a masterful plan of how to beat the spirit but at this moment, he doesn't know what to say.
'my hallucination probably played out, there is no percentage to takada-chan being here and even had spoken'
'do you think i'm not real?'
aoi's brain starts to work as the idol came to the sorcerer, dramatically pouted her lips. the moment of realization of what's happening dawned on him, as light pink blush is dotted on his cheeks, as he almost jumped off the couch.
't-takada-chan, i.. you real? certainly, you ain't fake, just..'
todo is dawned by a sudden feeling, which is hard for him to describe - such an unplanned meeting with an idol unquestionably makes him impossible to talk. even tho he's a sorcerer, ranged first which means he's powerful and astute when it comes to finding the best plan to exterminate the cursed spirit.
'i've been all ears about you - y/n told me that you're the strongest among your students. i am glad that my sister is dating someone powerful and kind like you, todo-san'
have you ever seen someone red like a tomato? well, now you've got an opportunity to have a look - the side of aoi probably you and takada allowed to see is when he's as happy as a child, the full teeth smile [?] that will not leave his face until the end of the evening, he will illuminate the room.
'don't call me todo-san, it's aoi. you're my girlfriend sister, i feel uncomfortable for you to use the formal'
the second question - have you ever seen someone being battle-crazed meathead and willing to demolish everyone but actually melty ice cream and sugary? my answer is simple - aoi todo.
all evening todo had been listening to your sister's stories with admiration in his eyes, peeping at you with those practically puppy eyes as if they're reading: 'thank you, honey'. todo kinda complacent - not everyone has got a chance to talk to the idol like aoi does.
throughout the evening the little and cute blush on his dimpled cheeks staying as if that's how it should be. out of a significant and fearsome man remained a small, purring cat, if you can characterize him that way.
'takada-chan, may i-'
'call me takada, aoi'
'takada.. may you give me taka-tan beam, please?'
at last, before leaving your house, your older sister looked back at todo's request, as if she was waiting 'till he uttered the phrase. she let out a cheerful but quiet chuckle.
'here i go' as if at that meeting when todo had time to come [he probably missed the class to see your sister], still he gets tensed when takada cleared her throat a little.
at first, she clenched her left hand in a small fist, covering her face with a curve of her elbow, next swiftly closed left eye, bringing the index and middle finger toward her eye with the back of his hand to the todo and you, pronouncing, likely the most favorite phrase taka-tan.
'here you go, aoi. i had the pleasure of meeting my sister's boyfriend. goodbye, thanks for the invitation, y/n!'
you smiled as a response, closed the door whilst todo is still speechless.
'oi, y/n, why you didn't choose to be an idol? therefore i'd be your huge fan number one'
'i've chosen another way. but, if i'll be the idol like my sister, hm~ i'll have the huge crowd of fanboys, who'd like to steal my heart'
he wanted to respond but instead of saying, todo wrapped his arms around your body, kissing your forehead.
'i'm glad that you're only mine, y/n. i love you'
you smacked your lips against his as your hands are holding his cheeks.
'..maybe i should be an idol after all..'
'and show your boot- your body to every boy? i'm not allowed you, you. are. mine!'
what is going to be next? well, you'll spend the night in todo's arms as he'll tell you, probably thousand and one quotes why you're his and why he loves you. that fondness of his is unforgettable.
(☆ω☆)
butler recommends you to see this video of todo meets takada-chan and taka-tan beam. hope it's fluff and kinda funny, sorry if it's not. also that cute moment in the end, i think it was UwU.
[?] - correct if i'm wrong.

hi bestie can i rq hdcs for jyuto and samatoki where they have a cute detective gf..... its been on my mind help
━━ ∘◦ ☆ ◦∘ ━━
Pairing: Samatoki Aohitsugi x fem!reader; Juto Iruma x fem!reader
Genre: Fluff
Warnings: None
A/N: This one was adorable, I loved writing it! I feel like both Samatoki and Juto would think their s/o was amazing, but if they were a super-smart detective as well? Definitely bonus points haha hope you enjoy~
⋘ ──── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ──── ⋙
Tumblr media
Samatoki Aohitsugi
Samatoki loves that you’re a detective...as long as you’re not actively on a case regarding him
the two of you met when you were working a crime scene that Samatoki’s gang had been involved in
but after it was cleared up and nobody was charged, you introduced yourself to him and gave him your card because you can never have too many connections
the two of you kept in contact and what started as work acquaintances ended up becoming a very solid relationship
Samatoki thinks you work too much and you always jokingly tell him that it’s his fault for causing you more work
since both of your jobs can be dangerous, you’re always telling other to be safe before work, and ‘kisses for safety’ is 100% a thing that happens
and if Samatoki wakes up late and you’re already gone, he’s going to be irritated all day that he didn’t get to tell you to be safe
even though he definitely blows up your phone with calls and texts
he also does this if you get assigned to a case outside of the city and have to leave for a few days
but whenever you successfully close a case, Samatoki is the first one congratulating you and urging you to celebrate with him
when you bring your work home with you, Samatoki is simultaneously annoyed and amazed because on one hand, he really just wanted to cuddle with you and eat dinner together
but on the other hand, he loves watching you spread out all of the files and begin intensely working through the papers, jotting things down and filing pictures of crime scenes away
Samatoki is fascinated by how fast your mind works and how good you are at connecting details and deducing facts
he doesn’t hold back in telling you how hot he thinks it is either, and will definitely tease you about how smart you are
he also thinks the faces you make when you’re concentrating are the cutest and he has no shame in pulling you into his arms
“Toki! Let me go, I have to work this case!”
“The case will still be there after dinner. Besides, it’s stressing you out, I can see it on that cute face of yours”
when you tell him that you know Juto and have run into him a few times at work, Samatoki tells you to stay away from him because he’s shady
to which you promptly remind Samatoki that he’s the shady one
he definitely gets annoyed whenever you deduce things about him because he feels like you always know everything going on in his mind
but he likes that he doesn’t always have to explain everything to you and that you can predict his needs well
he’s not the best with his words, so your powers of observation are actually incredibly helpful in the relationship
Tumblr media
Juto Iruma
Juto thinks you’re one of the smartest and best detectives he’s ever worked with
since he’s a police officer, he often works with detectives, helping them solve cases and that was how the two of you met
after the case was closed, he asked you for coffee off the clock and you slowly began to develop a relationship
you both agreed never to talk about work and to keep the relationship under the table from your colleagues 
sometimes you have to bring case files home with you though, and Juto is always more than happy to help you work through them
he’s not going to be happy if you cancel a fancy date night just to order pizza and go through paperwork though
so you’ll have to make sure you give him your time as well
since Juto is still a dirty cop, sometimes you’ll have cases that involve people he knows that he’s blackmailed or framed
and that’s when he’ll get reaaaalllyy quiet and just sip his coffee and tell you that he’s just as stumped as you are about the case
he always ends up telling you the truth though because you already know he does things under the table
you figure that as long as he’s framing the people that did the crime or were part of the group you’re going after, it’s not that bad
Juto always tells you not to over-work yourself, especially when he walks into the living room in the morning to see you passed out surrounded by a giant pile of paperwork
he’s not above threatening people to make sure you work normal hours and making sure that your boss isn’t taking advantage of how good you are at your job
I can imagine Juto being impressed by your powers of deduction and your ability to read him quite easily
sometimes it irritates him since he likes to be a bit more mysterious and secretive about the things he does
but he knows that you’re his girlfriend and that he’s not supposed to be hiding things from you anyways
so it actually helps both him and the relationship because he becomes less likely to hide things from you
since he knows that you’re smart enough to see through him anyways
the two of you really love doing escape rooms together and timing yourselves to see who can solve it faster
and throughout the relationship you’re always testing each other and competing, but it’s always for fun and done lovingly
because Juto really loves and admires you and he can’t even be mad when you win since he knows you’re just too good at being a detective
.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

before they year ends, anyone wanna admit they have a crush on me ?
characters: oikawa tōru, miya atsumu, bokuto kōtarō, kuroo tetsurō, terushima yūji
requested by @howlpendragonsupremacist (kt it’s ok real men suck that’s why we have our baby boys)
anyway yeah,, it’s those things people post on their snap/insta stories that are like, “before 2020 is over does anyone wanna admit they like me?” yeah. and they boys post and u swipe up, here’s what would happen.
oh my god this is so so late lmfao but oh well, bc i also didn’t get the rq until after new year’s anyway oops
this ended up crackier than i meant it to be but,, enjoy 🤪🤪
Tumblr media
general masterlist // haikyū!! masterlist
Tumblr media
oikawa tōru
※ ok honestly,, he probably said he was posting it ironically, but deep down it was a liiiitle bit unironic. just a little.
※ this is how it went:
you *probably* had to have one of your friends convince you to just say “fuck it” & hit send. probably.
he didn’t respond immediately; the boy has lots to do !!! go easy on him
but when he did finally get a chance to check his phone & he saw your message, he definitely didn’t wanna leave you hanging any longer
so you probably got a response back after like,,, a few hours ? but he definitely responded on the same day
unless you messaged him while he was asleep—in which case you either woke up to a response or didn’t have to wait long after you woke up to get one
this is the one he posted on his story:
Tumblr media
※ (you KNOW he likes to keep it classy or at least that’s what he SAYS)
※ and this was your conversation:
uhhh me 😳 seen
👀👀 Oh???
i said what i said seen
you’re not the first🥰 KIDDING KIDDING
nevermind seen
HUH
cocky bitch😡 someone needs to humble u gOd seen
😔😔 if i take you out will that make up for it
yes please i would like to no longer be alive🥰 seen
NOOO like a date???? or something ...ahahah
oikawa i stg but i’ll THINK abt it seen
please say yes
˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚
miya atsumu
Tumblr media
KIDDING IM KIDDING
this is the one he posted:
Tumblr media
※ it was definitely not ironic and the way he tried so hard to make it seem ironic honestly just,, made it sm worse LMFAO
※ how’d it go ??? well.
so you slid up like “🙋🏻‍♀️”
and uhh u didn’t get a response back for like,, a MINUTE
like maybe a couple hours ?? probably not more than like 2 or 3 tho
※ AND your conversation,,
ahahaa *a whole minute later*
wait like actually
uhh yeah haha seen
ohooo say less XD
dork seen
i thought u said u liked me :(
yea um,,, wanna go out for coffee sometime? seen
OH HELL YEAH oh btw i think your cute 😌
※ yes i am calling it rn i hc that he gets your/you’re mixed up sometimes
˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚
bokuto kōtarō
※ my big baby boy forgot what year it was for a hot minute and unfortunately that minute occurred when he was posting
Tumblr media
※ so he ended up posting this one
※ okok one of two things happened
EITHER nobody had the heart to tell him it wasn’t the end of the decade LMAO he’s baby
ORRR maybe like one or two people told him and he *meant* to take it down but then he forgot
※ and again w how it went, it coulda been two things
unless he was busy, he responded IMMEDIATELY because he was EXCITE oh my god such pretty lil human showing interest in him ???? absolutely passed out from excitement
he got scared. he got scared and then he left you on delivered for probably wayyy too long. and eventually he probably texted akaashi panicking, begging for advice, and akaashi told him he better get back to you if he didn’t want you to give up on it. and then he got even more scared. but he did text you back.
※ i’m thinking the convo went like
it’s not the end of the decade dummy but i might 👉🏽👈🏽 seen
🥺🥺 really
hehe yes seen
:))))
:))))) sent
*he leaves u on delivered for like, 10 minutes* can i take yuo on a date ***you
that sounds nice 🥰🥰 seen
so yes???
dummy ofc bo seen
:D
※ oh my god he’s baby
˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚
kuroo tetsurō
Tumblr media
why does this specific pic of sonic give off literally the exact same vibe he does
※ ANYWAY
※ ok tbh LMAO he’d be kinda awkward about it but like,, he wouldn’t notice
※ you, on the other hand, do notice but it’s sort of cute so do you care ?? no.
※ so,,,, he’s one of the ones that probably didn’t get back to you as soon as you’d have liked but he was actually super nice about it so yk, it’s fineee
※ and the reason he didn’t get back to you super quickly was because the boy’s got THINGS to do, like come on, he’s got his shit together (or he tries to, at least)
※ it went like this:
ahaha me 🤡 sent
*after being left on delivered for like 4 hours* hello i am so sorry i just checked my phone now but wassup babeyyy
hello seen
hello you we’re serious right? **were autocorrect
hahaha yes seen
i’m flattered 😁

NO I WANT TO i’m sorry i was just uh SCREAMING bc holy woah u like me back

ahahaha u bet i do babeyy
ok look ur hot but pls stop trying to talk like that it’s weird seen

˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚
terushima yūji
Tumblr media
※ cursèd
※ okok SO he either
got back to you almost immediately, and you were about to go to sleep when he did—it was probably around midnight or something?? and then you ended up staying up late talking because does this boy have a functional sleep schedule? probably not
left you on delivered for a while. but,, not on accident. no. he did it so that he could gloat about bEiNG tOo bUSy tExTiNg baCK EveRYonE ELsE WhO SLiD uP
i mean,, ok look, one or two other people probably did. but definitely not nearly as many as he’d like you to think.
cocky little bitch, even after fessing up for himself, he definitely went on about how “on god can u IMAGINE how jealous everyone’s gonna be of u”
※ the conversation proceeded as follows:
what the fuck teru you just awakened a memory i didn’t know i had  also,, me 🤮 seen
👀 u don’t have to be shy ab it i alr knew;)
👁👄👁 no u did NOT seen
mayyybe but i figured yk wit all the other people who also hit me up i’m not surprised;)

Re-watched SU S01E09 Tiger Millionaire
...metaphorically.
So Pearl/Garnet == the diamond authority this time. Amethyst = PD. Steven would be Pink Pearl/volleyball and later on our Pearl at first. Assuming Tiger Millionaire is the assistant of another side’s PD identity(rose quartz). In some case TM could be another side of coin of PD. Both Amethyst and Steven represent PD at some point. Amethyst is the pre-realization of PD while Steven is the post-realization of PD and later on being himself. Assuming Lars = Jasper.
Pearl/the diamond authority: You're always PUTTING us in danger with your little outbursts! (Amethyst puts her fingers in her ears and sticks out her tongue playfully.) Ugh, you are just... SO... CHILDISH!
Amethyst/PD: Yeah, yeah. And don't forget "reckless", "vulgar", "loud mouth". And that's just what makes me so AWESOME! *yells* RIGHT, WD?!? Garnet/the diamond authority: PD, you are a Diamond. You need to act like it.
...
Amethyst/PD:  ... Come here. Let me explain something to you. (Steven/Pink Pearl shuffles towards Amethyst/PD and she wraps his arm around her.) In the colony, NOBODY can tell me what to do! And if they try, I HIT 'EM IN THE FACE WITH MY POWER!  Steven/Pink Pearl: And gems... like that? Amethyst/PD: "Like it"? They LOVE it! AHA.. Well, they hate it, but it's all part of the fun, you know? E-everyone here... gets that. URGGGHHHH! You don't know what it's like having the other diamonds on your back all the time! Steven/Pearl: Are you KIDDING me?! *impersonates YD/BD* "Oh PD, I told you before not to take peanut butter on missions." *impersonates YD* "I'm not going to say anything, but I expect you to understand that was wrong." (Amethyst/PD chuckles.) Let me be a *secret identity* with you! I'm SO stifled!
Steven/Pearl: Are you READY?! Presenting the Rebellion version of PD! Rich diamond industrialist from Homeworld, once the single child of the wealthy Diamond authority, she clawed out her own destiny, making money in the Earth-
Lars/Jasper: *laughing in joy* Classic! Rose quartz! Hey Rose! *holds up her soda cup* Would you sign this? It'd be so rad! Steven/PD: You couldn't AFFORD it! (PD smacks Jasper's soda off his hand. Jasper looks crushed and blushes in embarrassment. She stomps away and throws PD's tie on the ground.) Mr. Smiley: Woah... Never thought I'd live to see the day when a contender turned down her fan. Mr. Smiley: PD, you're the cruelest creature on the planet. Steven/PD: PD... Am I the cruelest creature on the planet?(asking herself) Amethyst/PD: *chuckles* Oh Steven/PD, those are just words gems use to describe how they feel about you. (Steven/PD grows more upset.) Listen, PD, you can't let anyone make you feel like garbage. Steven/PD: Is that how you feel? Amethyst/PD: I only feel how I wanna feel. Random Man: Don't you dare hurt those men, you monsters! Sadie: Man, people are really hating on PD. Lars/Jasper: She's awful because she hurt me specifically. *holding up a sign reading "PD IS A JERK!"* ... Steven(as himself): *into the microphone* WAIT! I want to tell you PD’s backstory. She was the wildest diamond in the diamond authority, so wild, the other diamonds couldn't take it. So she, went to look for somewhere she fit in, somewhere with other gems who felt misunderstood. Steven: That's why we're all here. To be wild and free, and body slam each other, and wear cool costumes(identities), and make up nicknames and uh... so can't we just have this? Can't we just have fun/freedom?
Garnet/WD: Because... we are... the Notorious O-order of... Freedom Haters. Pearl/YD/BD: That's right! Um... *takes over the microphone* We wanna stop all freedom everywhere! Are you going to let us destroy all the freedom? *laughs nervously* Hee-huh? Lars/Jasper: You gotta save freedom! Come on! *holds up a renewed sign reading "RQ IS NOT A JERK"* PD! RQ! PD! RQ! Lars/Jasper: I love you, PD. *sheds a tear*

@fr3nchtuck This might get a little long, sorry! Also disclaimer, I’m basing this mostly off of the 2019 movie (and some of the movies 1994 movie) and snippets of the book (which I have not read, do with that as you will!!!)
Firstly, I’m going to say that I don’t like jo/laurie. I don’t think Jo should have married anyone, and that Alcott’s decision to marry her off was a reflection of the pressure put on Jo to marry off all of her heroines even at Jo’s insistence that it wasn’t the right course of action (this meta is alluded to at the end of the 2019 version). I’ve also never really believed that Jo loves Laurie as anything more than a sisterly or platonic love, and that she regrets her rejection of him because 1) he symbolizes childhood and freedom and 2) with Meg off and married, Beth dying, and Amy in Paris, Jo has never been lonelier. IMO, it’s not that Jo loves Laurie, it’s that she craves the consistency of a life partner.
Also I think when people hate Amy in favor of Jo/Laurie it makes the book about Laurie and pits the sisters against each other which I don’t enjoy :(
But anyway. That’s just a quick reason as to why I personally don’t vibe w jo/laurie. As for why I like Amy/laurie, I’ll rq explain why Amy is my favorite sister. I think people don’t give Amy enough credit, and Alcott puts Amy in an interesting position. Usually, the pressure is put on the eldest sisters to get married so they can support their siblings, while the youngest sisters dont experience the same pressure. For example, in pride and prejudice, it’s up to Lizzie and Jane to marry rich. Marmie doesnt put this pressure on her daughters, and Meg marries a ‘penniless tutor’ and at this point nobody expects Jo to marry. Beth is sick, and so she won’t be able to get married in any case. While Marmie doesnt pressure Amy to marry rich, Amy understands that it’s up to her to provide for her sisters (and her nieces and nephew). Amy grows up very romantic and naive, but must quickly her abandon her dream of becoming a painter and is not allowed the same freedom in marriage if she wants to provide economic stability for her sisters. And I think that’s something to be romanticized in itself! We often romanticize Meg and Jo’s decision to marry for love and pursue her career respectively, but there is something romantic in Amy making her own sacrifices for her family.
And I think this is why she’s so frustrated with Laurie when they meet in Paris! Laurie is a rich aristocratic man who could have any job, do anything he wants, and never have to worry about money - instead, he chooses to make a fool of himself in polite society. She’s frustrated because she has all the pressure to behave as a lady so she might be courted, while Laurie can do whatever he wants and nearly throws that opportunity away! Amy has transitioned from being a naive little girl to a pragmatic adult, choosing to suppress her romantic impulses. And for that reason, Amy can make Laurie a better person. She makes him grow up - it’s a very pretty idea to remain in childhood forever, but at the end of the day you can’t linger on the past forever.
On the other hand, Laurie begs Amy the question of whether or not she’ll be happy married to Fred Vaughn. Granted, it’s not an entirely fair question, but ultimately she doesn’t make a decision that would make her unhappy in her life, even if it was the ‘right’ decision.
Their dynamic perfectly shown in my favorite scene in the 2019 movie, when she’s sketching him on the lawn. It begins with him saying he’s writing an opera, which Amy calls a waste of time. He playfully asks her what she’d have him do, and for a moment she smiles, almost ready to play along as Jo might have done. But she shakes her head instead, and tells him she would have him make something of himself. Amy is enticed by the idea of escaping reality like Jo, but ultimately knows that it’s not realistic or sustainable.
At the end of the scene, Laurie tells her not to marry him and Amy just gets infuriated!!!! It’s my favorite part!!!! She KNOWS that lauries initial attraction to her is because she’s a March sister and he is ‘settling,’ and even though she loves him, she refuses to be his second choice!!!! Similar to her speech about her artistry, her point is that she either wants to be loved in her entirety or not at all. Which then forces Laurie to re-examine his own attraction to her, which leads him to the conclusion that he is obsessed with the past and Jo and ‘what could have been,’ rather than moving on and maturing in a healthy way. Again, Amy forces him to mature and better himself, and lauries attraction to her forces her to reconsider making a decision she could regret.
When they do finally get together, it is a rare moment of vulnerability for Amy, and a moment of clarity for Laurie. And Amy, who had felt overshadowed by her sisters - especially Jo - for most of her life, is finally in a position where she feels fully appreciated for who she is, and not by becoming somebody Laurie could love, but by changing Laurie for the better and accepting him for who he has become. It’s a love story of change and renewal and second chances. I think it’s far more interesting than jo/laurie. I think people are very enticed by jo/laurie because it represents young love but i prefer the idea of moving on and learning to love after you’ve been heartbroken, being challenged by your partner, suddenly seeing somebody in a different light <3
can’t sleep thinking about amy March

How to Become a Millionaire in 3 Years | Daniel Ally | TEDxBergenCommunityCollege
New Post has been published on https://hititem.kr/how-to-become-a-millionaire-in-3-years-daniel-ally-tedxbergencommunitycollege-15/
How to Become a Millionaire in 3 Years | Daniel Ally | TEDxBergenCommunityCollege
Tumblr media
Translator: Mohammed Basheer Reviewer: Denise RQ today I need to talk with you about a subject that many people were speakme about for an extraordinarily very long time. And that discipline is referred to as "success." Success manner one-of-a-kind things to extraordinary men and women, however what’s success would mean to me is distinctive than what it will imply to you. And what it is going to mean to you, is distinct than what it manner to a kindergartner who is solely looking to get a celeb on his homework assignment. Or might be to a housewife, who has been looking to get her five youngsters in bed be 9pm. Or maybe even a corporate government who’s been working for his or her manufacturer for 20-plus years, and simplest needs to emerge as the CEO of their group. As you would inform, we’ve got so many specific definitions of this phrase success, but the finest definition i will be able to offer you in these days is this, "Success is all about self-expression." it is about being who you want to be, doing what you wish to have to do, going where you want to head.In view that when it comes to your lifestyles, you’re the boss, and you have got a option. Correctly, you’re who you might be in these days for the reason that of all the alternatives that you have made on your complete existence. However as we are growing up we have now a variety of people who try to inform us easy methods to make these picks; our mothers and fathers, our academics, our bosses, our pals, even our neighbors. They are trying to tell us the right way to are living our lives, what we will have to do, the place we must go, how we must walk, how we must speak. But my question for you is that this, "If you are trying to be what different folks want you to be, then who will be you?" So the important thing to success is to stop conforming to other humans expectations, and begin performing to your possess level of expectations.Is to think in your self. Is to grasp that what you need will finally come to fruition, so long as you believe it. You see, you must have religion, and religion is knowing that what you need will eventually come to fruition so long as you suppose it. And in the event you feed your faith, you are going to in finding by and large times that your fears will starve to demise, for the reason that should you think in yourself, all people else in the world will consider in you. Happily, for a long time, I didn’t rather believe in myself. Truly, i used to be the form of individual that mothers would most often warn their daughters about, and fathers would tell their sons, "in the event you hold doing what Daniel Ally is doing, you will grow to be where Daniel Ally goes." that they had some credence to what they have been announcing, on the grounds that as which you could imagine, your fame relatively is your quality advertisement.I fairly did not have a just right reputation, on the grounds that I was residing so far under my competencies, I was simply living in my mother’s basement. By using the age of 21, i’d worked over 40 extraordinary jobs. I obtained fired from more jobs than more people had. In high university, I graduated 2nd to last, the last man; well, he was in jail. I used to be on medicinal drugs for eight years, and i used to be pressured. I was once broke, busted, and disgusted, and that i knew that I wanted to vary; the only problem was once I didn’t know the way.Can i see a exhibit of palms if you’ve ever been in a problem where you desired to change, but you just failed to be aware of what to do? Good, all of us were there, perhaps we’re there right now. I learned there are best three methods that i can make a change in my lifestyles. Three strategies I desired to share with you at present that can obviously revolutionize your existence from in these days. I do know these steps work due to the fact that i’ve been able to do them myself. By means of the age of 24, I grew to be a self-made millionaire. I’ve been competent to write three books and travel to dozens of nations. I now reach hundreds of thousands of people with my work. I think that these three key principles can alternate your lifestyles, irrespective of how do you define success whether or not you want to reside to age 100 or also have a dozen children, or just have a condo on the mountaintop somewhere nobody knows about.These three key concepts will aid you to have an understanding of the success on your lifestyles. The first one is to read extra books. All the books in the world can support us to remedy the entire problems on this planet. But actually that we don’t have got to learn the entire books on the earth, on the grounds that we do not need the entire issues on the earth, but we do have to learn the books that aid us to resolve our issues. So, for instance, should you desired to be trained about money, you higher be studying books that speak about cash.Or should you desired to study how to manage your relationships, or to grow to be a better communicator, there are quite a few books on that. What i am pronouncing clearly, is there are libraries which are paved with gold, and library cards are free. Books are the instruments that release the heavens of your mind. And leaders are readers. If you want to prevail, you ought to learn. Most persons on the planet read about one publication each single year, that ebook, i would consider, could be facebook. And before individuals even rise up and do their things, earlier than they drink their espresso or read their paper, they read fb. But actually that should you gain knowledge of miscellaneous matters, you get miscellaneous outcome; you emerge as what you be trained. What do you study, and where is it taking you? Quite a lot of men and women come as much as me, and they say, "Daniel, i do not rather have time to read. I’ve kids, i have work, i’m scholar. I already have so many textbooks, i’m doing so many things, i am too busy." however if you happen to shouldn’t have 10 minutes a day, you’re clearly announcing you don’t have a lifestyles.We all have time to read, all of us have time to choose up a just right book and read for ourselves in order that we are able to learn. Appear! When you read 10 minutes a day, for 30 straight days, that is one ebook a month. One book a month, in one year, is 12 books a 12 months. You are able to do in a single yr what most humans do in five years. Talk about no longer having time. We all have time to read. Do not forget, readers are leaders, and the only means that you may succeed is in case you learn. My second advice is ready getting across the first-class members that you may. We’re the sum whole of five folks wherein we surround ourselves with essentially the most. We earn the equal revenue, we go to the identical places, we do the same matters, we suppose the same thoughts. And if you had been to look at your 5 closest acquaintances, you may have received to ask yourself this one query, "who are my leaders, and where are they taking me?" In other words, "Are my leaders taking me to the place i’d obviously need to be?" If the reply isn’t any, then you definately need new leaders.You need men and women who are inspiring, men and women that can help you, raise you as much as the pursuits that transcend your possess possibility and your considering. You must have an understanding of your goals, and that you may most effective do that by getting around the proper people. Many people have what I wish to call "defult pals". Default friends are basically folks that we see across the neighborhood, folks on the grocery store, the gym, the mall, at church, at work, far and wide we go. These are persons that we naturally befriend as we begin to attain their trust and acceptance. And what tends to happen is, if you’re a enormously ambitious man or woman, and you’ve got relatively excessive targets, various these men and women can support you attain your targets. So that you must appear external, you have to search for men and women. I will give you an instance, I had a friend, his title used to be John, and he was once genuinely a plumber, and his father and him had an attractive positive industry, at the least it seemed love it.So I asked John, "I need to start a industry, what exactly do you consider I must do?" John pulled me to the corner and stated, "Daniel, i don’t believe you want to start a trade, ninety eight% of firms fail inside the primary three years." Then he proceeded to inform me about all of the explanations why i could not do it, and why it won’t work. He advised me how was once so hard working over one hundred hours a week, how tough it used to be to control payroll, and why the recession was once holding him again from getting extra purchasers. As he informed me this, I grew to be a little discouraged, just a little dejected, and i went home, and i thought about it. When I get to my journal, I ordinarily replicate, and that i wrote down in my journal, "The 98% of information are made up." including that one. You must recognize that no person’s opinion of which you could turn out to be your fact.And so as to trade your truth, you’ve got to vary your mentality and the persons you surround yourself with. You have to get your self around folks who can aid you, individuals which might be smarter than you, humans who have long past additional than you; men and women who be aware of what you must do to get to that subsequent degree. Actually that the humans that you’re looking for are additionally watching for you, but you need to in finding them. Often, we surround ourselves with strangers and loved ones members who tell us what we are not able to do, they limit us. A number of folks have the proper intentions, however customarily occasions, they furnish the wrong recommendations. In other phrases, they need to support us, however they simply don’t know how. So get around men and women who can.Various humans inquire from me, "Daniel, how do you to find these persons?" it is effortless. For those who waft the first step, which is to read extra books, you can in finding that in the back of the e-book there may be the "in regards to the author" part. What I used to do is I used to arrive out to the authors. Fortunately, we reside in a brand new millennium which enables us to get on their social media, their web sites, and that allows you to have a conversation with them.We will change by using actually understanding what it’s that they educate. And if we ask sufficient questions, we are able to make high-quality development in our life. Recall that humans you’re looking for are also watching for you, so get your self around those people. My final and final advice is to set better goals, considering that goals make you stretch, they support you to become extra of who you might be. And in this enormity of conformity, so many men and women don’t know the best way to set pursuits, they get harassed concerning the method. Various individuals use New year’s resolutions, however the concern with New yr’s resolutions is that the man or woman often tries to do too much, too rapid.Let’s consider Doug wishes to discontinue smoking. On December 31st, he says, "i’m finished." January 1st, "i’m smooth, on no account again." He hasn’t created a plan of action to obtain his targets, and thus, it is not cheap. Bucket list is anything else that persons do, and most commonly, when any one creates a bucket list, they are giving themselves an excessive amount of time. There’s no urgency, and most of the time, they don’t write their targets down. So, "What do you advocate?" good, i am completely satisfied you asked. What I do advocate for you is to jot down your goals down. I suppose that a stupid pencil is better than a sharp mind, and to impress your unconscious intellect, you must write your goals down, as a way to maintain this steadfastly to who you are. I have this procedure I educate all around the globe, that’s known as, "The 20 concept method".Essentially, what you do, is you opt for one overarching intention that you prefer to to achieve, analyze 20 ideas correspond with that detailed intention. Shall we say, for illustration, you desired to be a better public speaker. What are some things you are able to do? Well, you would watch TED talks, such as you are now, you would practice your speech, appear in the reflect to task yourself, you might learn the dictionary every day. There are such a large amount of matters you can do, but could I give you 20 suggestions? The answer is, "yes, i will come up with a one hundred if desired to." suppose in the event you did this in every subject to your lifestyles: financially, for promotions, in your family, and also you wrote your targets on daily.You can be equipped to accomplish so many matters for your existence. We have the whole thing we want with a view to succeed, but we have to take the things we need to get extra of the things that we want; from the cars that we force, to the garments that we put on, to the food that we eat, and the persons that we meet. In this depository of diversity, we have now the whole thing we want with a purpose to succeed, however we have got to consider. Whilst you consider in yourself, you’re going to find that all people on the earth will consider in you. And you additionally have to consider large. When you believe huge, you will do colossal, and you will win gigantic. Well, B-I-G is surely is the 3 strategies that I need to share with you in these days: B — the books that you simply read, I — the individuals that you simply meet, and G — the goals that you set for yourself. Books, participants, and goals: that is all you have got to accomplish success, considering the fact that whilst you consider significant, you will do colossal, and you’re going to win gigantic, my neighbors.Thank you. (Applause). .

Fade, obviously. (Send me a Ship and I’ll Break Them DOWN) I’m not sure if you’ve done this before.
As if I wouldn’t have tagged you in that case^^
I’ve been waiting to do this and it’s like writing down a heap of mini Fade fan fictions and that’s shipper spirit ;-) It’ll get long!
PS: Took me hours to write this when I had planned to write Blood Curse chapter 3, an answer to your post and a review. But whatever, the things I do for Fade ¯\_(ツ)_/¯    
How did they they meet?
“You better not get me killed” - look at canon in Steel Scars.
Who developed romantic feelings first?
Shade (he stopped denying sooner than her)
Who is their biggest “shipper?”
I am. And you too @clarafarleybarrow
When did they have their first kiss and under what circumstances?
When Farley goes to find him at the end of Steel Scars and they crouch down together because they’re shocked about what happened to Mare at Queenstrial. They start to hold hands while Shade leans against her. They talk about what to do now and fall silent after a while yet the silence doesn’t feel awkward, not even in the turmoils of Rocasta. Finally, Farley turns to him and starts to speak. “We should,” she says, then stops herself. She doesn’t know what to say, actually, and she doesn’t know why. Looking at him is enough, especially with the way he returns her gaze. She stops thinking when she closes the last distance between him, reaching with her hand to his neck to pull him to her and kiss him. She draws her head back, after a not so short moment, but maintains her position otherwise. Shade blinks at her and she sees the smile in his eyes just before they start kissing again.
Who confessed their feelings first?
I think a lot happened more non-verbal or in indirect phrases. Like when Shade asks for her name and replies “I’m with you, Diana” when he pledges to the Guard.
As in who says “I love you” first, it’s Farley. It’s an accident, I’ve alluded to it here: https://chaoslaborantin.tumblr.com/post/158758240798/red-queen-fan-fiction-in-the-meantime
She has morning sickness and he goes after her, holding her hair away. After some time, she gets up and washes her face, staying a little out of his way, but he hugs her anyways, brushes her cheek, and kisses her. She gasps. “Are you okay?” he murmurs and then she says it. “That’s why I love you.”
Both blush cherry-red immediately. “I love you too,” Shade answers and stumbles over the words. She smirks.
What was their first official date?
Shade: “The time when I took her to Corvium and used my ability to bring her there. Firstly,  I made her vomit, and then she stripped down in front of me. And I loved the way she gave me this pointed glances while we royally screwed up those Silvers. It was a glorious day.”
How do they feel about double dates/group dates?
It’s a no. Secrecy is their aesthetic.
What do they do in their down time?
Does that mean hobbies and spare time? Shade tells Farley to lean back a little and finally put the work away. She doesn’t, but always finds something to lowkey complain about. Shade asks her to relax and she replies he should help her a bit more. He nods and starts to massage her shoulders. Another time, she lays down on a bed/couch and groans. Shade asks what’s wrong but she only grumbles something. He comes over, puts her feet on his lap and massages those. He asks again what she’s worrying about and she starts to talk.
What was the first meeting of parents as an official couple like?
Look also at https://chaoslaborantin.tumblr.com/post/154931582748/rq-secret-santa-claudia
The Barrows: Farley and Shade go to them in the beginning of Glass Sword to tell them that Mare has been captured by the colonel. They tell the family not to worry, they have a plan to get her away. Shade implies they might be gone for a while but they need to do it. “I can rely 100 % on Captain Farley”, he adds and throws a glance at her. She smirks at that and notices him taking her hand. She squeezes it. All the Barrows more or less get that there’s something going on between them and Tramy is about to ask something like that, but is interrupted by Gisa who hugs Shade, and Farley as well, to her surprise. “I believe in you,” Gisa says, and gives away one of her old embroidered scarves. Yet the family remains afraid. As they leave, Daniel rolls after them and tucks Farley’s sleeve. “You will take care him, Captain?” he asks. She nods, and Daniel adds “I fear he’s bad at doing it himself.”
The Colonel: I think they never meet each other with Fade as an official couple. I guess what happened it this:
Farley: “Colonel, this is Shade Barrow who has relayed very important intelligence to us. He is an invaluable asset, yet we have to protect our best spies, as you know very well. The reason for extracting him is …. this (makes a gesture for him to show off teleportation and Shade does). Impressive isn’t it? (grins)
Colonel: … The fuck … ?
Farley: Deal with it. (leaves)
What was their first fight over and how did they get past it?
When Farley thought he was a Silver? Yep, I would say so, please re-read Steel Scars ;-) (I haven’t dared to yet, btw, since KC)
Which one is more easily made jealous?
Equally. The funny thing is that they never admit their jealousy to each other, but the other notices it nevertheless and they still manage to tease each other about it.
What is their favourite thing to get to eat?
Farley likes junkfood, I think that’s mentioned in KC? Shade is more into fish and homecooking (though he isn’t that good at it), while Farley is okay with eating in the mess hall. Shade mocks her about her simple taste every now and then and tries to keep Clara away from junkfood.
Who’s the cuddly one? What their favourite cuddling position?
Farley. She likes to sit on his lap, or when he massages her. Sometimes Shade wonders if she prefers to cuddle him or Clara.
Are they hand holders?
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
They are the queen and king of handholders, I hope you have noticed how often Farley talks about his hands? She loves them!
How long do they wait before sleeping together for the first time? What’s the circumstances?
Look here: https://chaoslaborantin.tumblr.com/post/158757768598/red-queen-fan-fiction-in-the-meantime
Who tops?
Alternatingly. They try out a lot in bed.
What’s the worst first they’ve ever gotten into?
I guess … Shade got angry about the whole coup d’etat thing in Red Queen. Farley has fucked up massively there and Shade got loud for once. But this was afterwards, they were too occupied with surviving at first. The fight happened after they’d arrived at Tuck, when they were alone for a moment. She looked after his wounds when he started to question her doings. She froze, straightened herself and hissed “I’m well aware, thank for reminding me”. Shade flinched and remained silent. They didn’t talk for the rest of the day. Yet Farley came back on the next day and Shade felt unexpectedly relieved. He said he didn’t want to shut her up and didn’t wish for her to build a wall between them. She could trust him. Farley crossed her arms. “Okay?” he asked, and she nodded. She made a stupid joke then and suceeded in lightening the situation. “We’ll have to be better,” he said, and she replied, “we will be.”
I’m not sure about the timing here, tbh, but I guess later in the day, Mare is captured.
Who does the shopping and the cooking?
Farley doing the shopping is somehow canon. Cooking … they both can make do, but as they live in larger groups most of the time, they leave the cooking to experts.
Which one is more organized and prone to tidiness?
Farley
Who proposes?
Here we get definitely in “I pretend it didn’t” happen territory. I always wanted to write this idea.
Shade proposes some weeks after they’ve realizes they’re having a baby. Farley thinks he’s joking and reacts in that way as she sees him kneeling down in front of her. She can’t stop grinning and almosts laughs, yet Shade goes all the way, until he asks “will you marry me, Diana Farley?” He tries very hard to pretend she’s laughing because she’s happy.
But finally, she says, “You’re serious, by the bleeding skies? You don’t think you have to make an honourable woman out of me, do you? Because I’m not -” She stops herself as she sees hurt flashing on his face. “Sorry, sorry, sorry, I didn’t mean -” she pleads, but Shade stands up and turns away. He tries his best to hide his hurt but both of them know he feels it. He pretends it was a joke, as Farley thought at first.
Farley feels bad about this for weeks. Then she approaches the topic again. starting with another apology he won’t have. She insists. “I love you, Shade Barrow, and I was mean that day. I wanted to say to you, for some time now, that maybe, possibly, in some years .. I’d like to marry you. Perhaps. If we’re still alive and our cause is won.”
“Now that is a good reason to keep on fighting,” he replies.
They’re engaged for years and let people know this. There are bets about when they’ll get married, but they never let anything slip and dissemble instead. “It’s good as it is”, or “we can’t decide on a name anyways”, or “marriage is overrated, being engaged is more extra”.
Do they have joined Bachelor/Bacheloette parties or separate?
Joined. But nobody but Shade and Farley know it’s their pre-wedding party. They pretend they just want to have a good time because they don’t tell anyone they’re getting married the next day.
Who is the best man/maid of honour? Any other groomsmen or bridesmaids? Big Ceremony or Small?
The smallest ceremony ever. There are only the officials which are needed, Clara, and one or two close friends from the Guard who aren’t gossips. They have their own vows, make a photo, and have a nice meal. Some alcohol, but not much. They leave Clara with one of the friends present and have a glorious wedding night.
They wonder when Clara will let it slip that her parents have finally married and that’s the only risk they’re willing to take.
Do they have a honeymoon? If so, where? 
No. Unless they have a trip scheduled by circumstance to which they will refer to as their honeymoon ever after.
Do they have children? How many?
They have one canon child. Let’s assume they would’ve had more if Shade had lived and their cause was won. But if they have more than two, IDK?
Ask me for a ship!

The “RQ=Batman, PD=Bruce Wayne” Theory
This post contains spoilers up-through and including “Jungle Moon.”
Post “A Single Pale Rose” Update: 
I’m like 70% sure Rebecca Sugar has seen this post, and mentions in at the 17:50 mark in the Heart of the Crystal Gems episode of the official podcast. 
(No other changes have been made to the post below, since the “Stranded” special aired.)
The Theory:
At some point during the colonization of Earth, Pink Diamond became enamored with organic life on Earth. While the other diamonds regarded organic life as nothing more than a resource for creating new gems, she created a zoo in an attempt to preserve the species she knew was doomed to extinction by the colonization process. 
Tumblr media
She was fascinated by humans' ability to choose their own destiny outside of a rigid caste system, but the humans kept safe in her zoo were deprived of that freedom. Eventually, keeping a relatively small number of humans alive, with no real freedom and away from their home, which she was helping to destroy, wasn’t good enough for her anymore. She wanted to save the Earth, and give gems the same freedom that humans enjoyed. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Maybe she proposed this plan to the other diamonds, but they rejected it. Maybe she knew they would never agree to it and didn’t even bother asking. In any case, she decided to rebel against them, end the destruction of the Earth, and free the gems severing under her.
However, Pink Diamond realized that those gems were programmed to follow her orders, and would rebel against the other diamonds without question if she ordered them to. This would completely undermine her goal of granting her subjects free will outside of the caste system. So, Pink Diamond created an alter-ego: Rose Quartz. "Just another Quartz soldier, made right here in the dirt." Pink Diamond wouldn't lead the rebellion, Rose Quartz would.  And her subjects would be able to freely choose which side they wanted to fight for.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Only one other gem would know about this plan: her pearl.
Pearl:  It's a secret, even to Garnet and Amethyst. Rose had a place that she kept hidden from all but me...
Pearl: I was your mother's sole confidant— for the words she could share with no one else, I was there to listen.
Steven:  Why'd she keep so many secrets?
Pearl: She had to, Steven! It's the mark of a great leader, knowing just what to keep hidden from everyone you're trying to protect.
Garnet: Rose kept many things secret, even from us.
Pearl: But not from me, I was the one she told everything!
Tumblr media
For a thousand years, Pink Diamond led a double life, operating as herself out of her moon base and as Rose Quartz out of her secret armory and other rebel bases. Although in a position to try and minimize casualties, she also needed to give the rebellion the best possible chance of success while keeping up appearances with those gems who had remained loyal to Pink Diamond and homeworld. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She would have been forced to make terrible, impossible decisions as she issued battle orders to soldiers on both sides, often sending gems who loyally served under her to certain doom.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Eventually, as the war became more and more desperate and the huge number of soldiers taking orders from the other three diamonds threatened to overwhelm the rebellion.
Revealing her deception was no longer an option. Too many of Rose Quartz’s soldiers, like Bismuth, were now completely opposed to the authority of “upper crusts” like Pink Diamond. If they learned they had been taking orders from a diamond the whole time, and that their beloved leader had also been commanding the forces they fought for a thousand years, they would never follower her again. She would become an enemy of both Homeworld and the rebellion, and the latter would surely fail without her leadership.
There was only one way out. Pink Diamond would fake her own death and hope that the other diamonds would be sufficiently terrified of Rose Quartz to abandon Earth. However she did it, her plan worked, but she failed to anticipate the the other diamonds would emit the corruption signal before departing. 
The Evidence:
Rose Quartz and Pink Diamond were both pink, had big hair, and their gem in their belly button.
Rose has a cave with a giant penny in it that only her most loyal servant knows about. Just like Batman, who has a secret identity.
Pink Diamond = Bruce Wayne 
Rose Quartz = Batman 
Pearl = Alfred
Moon Base = Wayne Manor
Secret Armory = Batcave
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It seems like Pearl was programmed to loyally serve Rose Quartz. In the holographic memory in “Rose’s Scabbard,” Rose called her “My Pearl.” Pearl tells Steven, “Everything I ever did, I did for her. Now she’s gone, but I’m still here.“ Indeed, Pearl’s main character arc in the first three seasons is that she is constantly uncertain of her purpose in life now that Rose is gone, and must learn to function without Rose now. She’s a Pearl, programmed to serve, but the gem she’s programmed to serve is gone now.
But why would a Pearl be programmed to follow a common Quartz Solider? 
In addition to the evidence that Pearl served Rose Quartz, there are also several hits that Pearl served Pink Diamond. (See the numbered list below, and my master-post on the question of Pearl’s ownership.) This apparent contradiction is resolved by the realization that Rose Quartz and Pink Diamond are the same person.
(1) In “Adventures in Light Distortion” Pearl says, “When I still served ....Homeworld." Why that pause there? Why is Pearl hesitant to tell Steven who she used to serve?
Tumblr media
(2) Later, in “Gemcation,“ Pearl again seems hesitant to tell Steven something about her past. “Steven, I'm sure you have a lot of questions you'd like answers to, like about the Diamonds, for instance. There are things that are impossible for me to explain. But I want to. I-- [covers her own mouth]. Steven I -- [covers her own mouth again].
Tumblr media
(3) In “Back to the Barn,” Peridot says our Pearl “looks like a fancy one.” Fancy enough to be reserved for royalty? 
Tumblr media
(4) Pink diamonds appear on Pearl’s flight-suit, hologram-Pearl, and on Sardonyx’s shoes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(5) Pearl strikes an interesting pose in “We Need to Talk.”
Tumblr media
(6) In “It Could've Been Great” Pearl is the gem who knows that there was a Diamond base on the moon.
Tumblr media
Steven and Rose are often associated with the imagery of royalty.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bismuth believes Rose Quartz was made on Earth, but we know from flashbacks to Rose's private conversations with Pearl and Greg that she's from homeworld. Why would she lie to her fellow rebels about where she was made?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rose Quartz’s power set seems to be completely different than any other quartz soldier we’ve seen in the show. Other than having the strength, durability, and ability to summon a weapon that all gems have, the only special power both Amethyst and Jasper have is the ability to perform simple ‘spin attack.‘ Rose Quartz has never been seen performing a spin attack, but she can float, heal gems and organic life, control plants and even instill them with sentience. In “The Trial,” Eyeball states that Rose Quartz was the only know gem ever to have healing powers, and none of the diamonds or zircons present disagree with her on that point. Why are the abilities of this alleged common quartz solider from earth so unique?
When Eyeball says she witnessed the death of Pink Diamond, she is literally talking to a gem that is tricking her with shape-shifting.
Tumblr media
Steven’s baby onsey is left partly unsnapped in a very interesting way for most of “Three Gems and a Baby.”
Tumblr media
In “Lion 4: Alternate Ending,” we see two large pink structures outside of Rose’s landfill. Most fans think these are either the fingers of Pink Diamond’s hand-ship, or the legs of her...leg ship, which could form a Voltron-esque robot with the other Diamond’s ships. Either way, this is Pink Diamond’s ship. So what’s it doing where Rose Quartz kept all her old things she doesn’t need anymore? 
Furthermore, the fact that Rose’s landfill doesn’t seem to have been on the map of gem locations Pearl gave to Buddy Buddwick, and that nobody thought to use Pink Diamond’s old ship when Steven was trapped on homeworld, would seem to imply that existence/location of Rose's landfill and Pink Diamond’s ship was a secret Rose kept from the rest of the crystal gems.
Tumblr media
In “Steven’s Dream” Steven has visions through the eyes of Blue Diamond after she arrives on Earth. None of the other gems on Earth seem to be effected by Blue Diamond’s relative proximity in the same way. Why does Steven have a special connection to the diamonds that allows him, and no one else, to have “diamond dreams?”
Tumblr media
"The Trial” revealed that Pink Diamond was allegedly shattered with Rose Quartz’s sword. A sword its designer, Bismuth, said was incapable of shattering gems.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rose Quartz is nowhere to be seen in Garnet’s brief flashback to fighting Pink Diamond in “Gemcation.” (Has anyone ever seen Rose Quartz and Pink Diamond in the same room at the same time?!)
Also, Pink Diamond is seen wield dual gem destabilizes. How suspiciously nice of her to use a weapon that just poofs gems instead of shattering them.
Tumblr media
In “Jungle Moon,” Stevonnie has a strange dream where they are acting out a memory of Pink Diamond from a time before she was put in charge of colonizing Earth. Why is Stevonnie remembering something that happened to Pink Diamond in the alien moon base at all?
There’s some interesting symbolism going on in the dream sequence in “Jungle Moon” as well. In the dream Pink Diamond, shatters her own reflection. Foreshadowing that she faked her own shattering?
Tumblr media
It’s currently open to interpretation how literal any individual element of Stevonnie’s dream is, but it seems like Pink Diamond may have been significantly smaller than Yellow. Maybe about the same size as Rose Quartz? This seems to be confirmed by the height of the spot where she punched the glass, and the size of her chair back on Earth’s moon base, compared to Yellow Diamond's on the alien moon base.
Tumblr media
(Yellow Diamond’s chair)
Tumblr media
(Pink Diamond’s chair)
Tumblr media
Pink Diamond’s lips and nose are identical to Rose Quartz’s.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh, and look! It’s Pink Diamond with the shadow of her bangs hiding her eyes. Now where have we seen that before?

How to Become a Millionaire in 3 Years | Daniel Ally | TEDxBergenCommunityCollege
New Post has been published on https://hititem.kr/how-to-become-a-millionaire-in-3-years-daniel-ally-tedxbergencommunitycollege-17/
How to Become a Millionaire in 3 Years | Daniel Ally | TEDxBergenCommunityCollege
Translator: Mohammed Basheer Reviewer: Denise RQ at present I need to speak with you a couple of area that many men and women had been talking about for an awfully very long time. And that area is known as "success." Success means one-of-a-kind matters to one of a kind individuals, but what is success would mean to me is unique than what it’ll mean to you. And what it’ll imply to you, is different than what it means to a kindergartner who is solely looking to get a star on his homework challenge. Or possibly to a housewife, who has been looking to get her five youngsters in mattress be 9pm. Or maybe even a company government who’s been working for his or her enterprise for 20-plus years, and most effective needs to grow to be the CEO of their organization. As you might inform, we now have so many exceptional definitions of this word success, but the greatest definition i will be able to offer you today is this, "Success is all about self-expression." it can be about being who you want to be, doing what you need to do, going the place you need to head.Considering in terms of your lifestyles, you’re the boss, and you have got a alternative. Correctly, you might be who you’re at present when you consider that of all of the picks that you’ve got made on your whole lifestyles. However as we’re growing up now we have numerous individuals who try to tell us how to make these alternatives; our parents, our lecturers, our bosses, our pals, even our neighbors.They are attempting to tell us how you can are living our lives, what we must do, the place we will have to go, how we must stroll, how we must talk. However my query for you is this, "If you’re looking to be what different persons want you to be, then who can be you?" So the important thing to success is to stop conforming to different people expectations, and begin performing to your own level of expectations. Is to believe in yourself. Is to understand that what you wish to have will ultimately come to fruition, as long as you consider it. You see, you need to have faith, and religion is realizing that what you wish to have will eventually come to fruition so long as you feel it. And if you happen to feed your religion, you’ll find probably occasions that your fears will starve to death, due to the fact should you consider in yourself, everyone else in the world will suppose in you. Fortunately, for a long time, I failed to particularly think in myself. Truly, i used to be the style of character that mothers would often warn their daughters about, and fathers would inform their sons, "if you maintain doing what Daniel Ally is doing, you’re going to end up the place Daniel Ally goes." that they had some credence to what they have been pronouncing, due to the fact that as that you may think, your fame quite is your great advertisement.I quite didn’t have a excellent status, on the grounds that I was living thus far under my knowledge, I was surely residing in my mom’s basement. Through the age of 21, i’d worked over 40 distinctive jobs. I got fired from extra jobs than extra persons had. In high college, I graduated second to last, the last man; well, he used to be in reformatory. I was on medicines for eight years, and i was once careworn. I was broke, busted, and disgusted, and i knew that I desired to change; the one predicament was once I failed to understand how. Can i see a exhibit of arms in case you’ve ever been in a trouble where you wanted to alter, but you simply didn’t know what to do? Good, we all had been there, probably we’re there correct now. I learned there are most effective three ways that i will make a change in my life.Three strategies I desired to share with you at present that can absolutely revolutionize your lifestyles from in these days. I do know these steps work for the reason that i’ve been capable to do them myself. By way of the age of 24, I grew to be a self-made millionaire. I’ve been capable to write three books and journey to dozens of nations. I now attain thousands of persons with my work. I consider that these three key concepts can trade your life, regardless of how do you define success whether you wish to have to are living to age 100 or actually have a dozen children, or simply have a apartment on the mountaintop somewhere no person is aware of about. These three key principles will support you to realize the success on your life. The primary one is to read extra books. All of the books on this planet can support us to solve all the issues in the world.However in reality that we don’t have got to learn the entire books on this planet, because we do not need the entire issues on the planet, but we do ought to read the books that aid us to clear up our problems. So, for example, for those who desired to learn about cash, you higher be reading books that speak about money. Or when you wanted to be trained how you can manipulate your relationships, or to grow to be a greater communicator, there are a lot of books on that. What i am announcing in actual fact, is there are libraries that are paved with gold, and library playing cards are free. Books are the instruments that free up the heavens of your mind. And leaders are readers. If you wish to prevail, you need to learn. Most humans in the world examine one publication every single 12 months, that publication, i’d believe, can be fb.And earlier than men and women even stand up and do their things, earlier than they drink their coffee or learn their paper, they learn fb. However in reality that in case you gain knowledge of miscellaneous things, you get miscellaneous outcome; you emerge as what you be trained. What do you study, and the place is it taking you? Various individuals come as much as me, and they say, "Daniel, i don’t quite have time to read. I’ve youngsters, i have work, i am student.I have already got so many textbooks, i am doing so many things, i’m too busy." however when you do not need 10 minutes a day, you are in actual fact announcing you do not have a life. We all have time to read, we all have time to select up a just right publication and browse for ourselves in order that we can be trained. Appear! Should you learn 10 minutes a day, for 30 straight days, that is one book a month. One book a month, in three hundred and sixty five days, is 12 books a yr.You can do in one 12 months what most people do in five years. Speak about not having time. We all have time to read. Bear in mind, readers are leaders, and the one method which you can be triumphant is in the event you read. My 2d suggestion is ready getting around the satisfactory participants that you may. We are the sum total of 5 humans wherein we surround ourselves with the most. We earn the equal revenue, we go to the identical places, we do the same matters, we think the equal ideas. And in the event you had been to seem at your 5 closest acquaintances, you’ve received to ask your self this one question, "who’re my leaders, and the place are they taking me?" In other phrases, "Are my leaders taking me to the location i’d undoubtedly want to be?" If the answer is no, then you definitely need new leaders.You want individuals who are inspiring, people that may aid you, carry you up to the targets that transcend your own likelihood and your considering. You have to comprehend your goals, and which you could only try this through getting around the proper persons. Many of us have what I wish to name "defult associates". Default associates are basically humans that we see around the neighborhood, persons at the grocery store, the fitness center, the mall, at church, at work, all over the place we go.These are humans that we naturally befriend as we begin to gain their trust and acceptance. And what tends to occur is, if you’re a tremendously ambitious person, and you’ve got particularly excessive pursuits, a lot of these people can help you reach your goals. So that you ought to appear external, you need to seek for persons. I’m going to give you an illustration, I had a pal, his name was once John, and he was honestly a plumber, and his father and him had an attractive triumphant industry, at the least it seemed love it. So I requested John, "I want to a business, what exactly do you suppose I must do?" John pulled me to the corner and said, "Daniel, i do not think you want to a trade, 98% of businesses fail inside the first three years." Then he proceeded to inform me about all the explanations why i could not do it, and why it won’t work.He told me how used to be so hard working over a hundred hours every week, how tough it was to manage payroll, and why the recession used to be protecting him back from getting extra consumers. As he told me this, I grew to be slightly discouraged, somewhat dejected, and that i went residence, and that i thought about it. Once I get to my journal, I most likely replicate, and i wrote down in my journal, "The 98% of information are made up." together with that one. You must comprehend that nobody’s opinion of that you could end up your reality. And to be able to exchange your truth, you have got to alter your mentality and the individuals you encompass yourself with. You must get yourself around men and women who can help you, men and women which are smarter than you, people who’ve long gone further than you; folks who know what you need to do to get to that subsequent level. Actually that the men and women that you’re looking for are also looking for you, however you have to find them. In many instances, we surround ourselves with strangers and family contributors who inform us what we can’t do, they restrict us. Numerous men and women have the proper intentions, however mainly times, they furnish the wrong instructions.In other words, they wish to aid us, but they simply do not know how. So get round persons who can. A variety of humans question me, "Daniel, how do you in finding these folks?" it’s effortless. In case you waft the first step, which is to read more books, you’ll find that in the back of the guide there is the "concerning the writer" part. What I used to do is I used to arrive out to the authors. Fortunately, we are living in a new millennium which permits us to get on their social media, their web sites, and so that they can have a conversation with them.We can alternate through surely figuring out what it is that they instruct. And if we ask sufficient questions, we are able to make first-class development in our life. Remember that folks you are watching for are additionally watching for you, so get yourself around these men and women. My last and final suggestion is to set larger targets, when you consider that pursuits make you stretch, they aid you to grow to be extra of who you’re. And in this enormity of conformity, so many folks don’t know find out how to set goals, they get burdened about the process. Quite a lot of humans use New yr’s resolutions, but the main issue with New year’s resolutions is that the person traditionally tries to do too much, too fast. Let’s say Doug needs to discontinue smoking. On December thirty first, he says, "i’m done." January 1st, "i’m smooth, under no circumstances once more." He hasn’t created a plan of action to acquire his objectives, and as a consequence, it’s not cheap. Bucket record is some thing else that men and women do, and most often, when any person creates a bucket list, they’re giving themselves an excessive amount of time.There is no urgency, and most of the time, they do not write their targets down. So, "What do you suggest?" good, i’m glad you requested. What I do suggest for you is to write your pursuits down. I think that a dull pencil is healthier than a sharp intellect, and to impress your unconscious mind, you ought to write your targets down, so as to preserve this steadfastly to who you’re. I’ve this approach I educate all around the world, that is known as, "The 20 inspiration procedure". Sincerely, what you do, is you choose one overarching purpose that you want to to achieve, analyze 20 strategies correspond with that distinctive purpose. Shall we embrace, for illustration, you wanted to be a greater public speaker. What are some matters you can do? Good, you would watch TED talks, like you are now, you might follow your speech, seem in the reflect to task yourself, you might read the dictionary every day. There are such a lot of things you are able to do, but might I come up with 20 recommendations? The reply is, "sure, i can give you a a hundred if wanted to." imagine for those who did this in every discipline in your lifestyles: financially, for promotions, to your loved ones, and you wrote your targets on daily.You might be ready to accomplish so many matters to your existence. We now have everything we want in order to be triumphant, however we must take the matters we need to get extra of the things that we wish; from the automobiles that we drive, to the clothes that we wear, to the meals that we consume, and the people that we meet. On this depository of range, we’ve got the whole thing we’d like as a way to prevail, but we must think. Whilst you consider in yourself, you’ll find that every person on the earth will feel in you. And also you also ought to feel huge. Whilst you think tremendous, you are going to do colossal, and you will win huge. Good, B-I-G is actually is the 3 recommendations that I want to share with you in these days: B — the books that you simply learn, I — the contributors that you simply meet, and G — the ambitions that you just set for yourself.Books, individuals, and targets: that’s all you have got to accomplish success, considering that when you feel big, you’ll do gigantic, and you will win enormous, my pals. Thank you. (Applause). .
