   “Welcome to the world, little one.” Aso murmured as he kissed Kyoko’s temple. His voice was rich and fond.

   Kyoko held said little one - their baby - and looked suitably exhausted. Her eyes were droopy and her smile was lopsided but the moment of calm after all the chaos of giving birth was welcome.

   Speaking of welcome, so were their guests.

   “They’re ready to see us now.” Genome said to both Ryoken and Spectre.

   He was standing on the threshold of the door. He hovered in and out between the hallway and the infirmary. He was acting as the mediary between himself as a general practitioner when it came to all things related to the human body, and a family friend. The home birth had been as safe and successful as it could be on a cruise liner lived in by five people, three of whom were doctors, even if one of said doctors was the patient.

   Ryoken and Spectre exchanged a look. Excitement did not begin to describe the emotion on Spectre’s face, it was oddly giddy whereas Ryoken was smiling but not over the moon. But, upon invitation, they both came inside the infirmary.

   The infirmary had bit of a smell to it. Some of it was tolerable - like the heady, new baby smell - but some of it not so much. Ryoken hid the way his nose wrinkled but Genome was very vocal about his disdain for unsanitary smells. 

   “Are you guys ready to meet the new addition to our family?” Kyoko asked.

   Aso proudly stood by Kyoko’s bedside, he warmly placed his hand on her shoulder and she practically glowed. She looked the perfect picture of the Nativity scene: husband by her side, three wise stooges involved, and of course the most perfect infant child to have ever been born swaddled in her arms.

   “We’ve decided on Noriaki as his name.” Aso said.

   Ryoken snickered, “Noriaki? Really?”

   “We knew you’d say that.” Kyoko sighed. “No, not like “law light” but rather “roasted seaweed autumn” regarding the kanji.”

   “That’s even worse.” Ryoken said as he amusedly folded his arms.

   “I think it's a nice name. Regardless of reading.” Spectre piped up.

   “Thank you, Spectre.” Kyoko said and Aso nodded in agreement.

   “We also considered ‘Shinichiro’ but I’m sure you would have had even more problem with that.” Aso said.

   Ryoken took a moment to puzzle out the potential obvious Kanji for such a name and sure enough, Aso was right. Seventh son. That was a worse idea than autumnal roasted seaweed- er, law light. Spectre reserved judgement, however, as he had no complaints about being one of the preceding six but could understand the perspective of the others.

   “Do you two want to hold Noriaki?” Kyoko asked, breaking the mounting tension over her and Aso’s choice of name for their son.

   It had been hard to come up with a good name. There were plenty of things to omit but not a lot to include which made it difficult. 

   They didn’t want to use names which had either “Ryo” or “Ken” in them for obvious reasons. They couldn’t pick anything with “Ki” in it nor anything with “Yoshi” either. “Aki” was already a risk considering who their SOL Tech benefactor was. Then there was the issue of using anything containing either Spectre and Genome’s real names which were dead to them. Nor did they want to use anything too short since Noriaki was going to use his father’s family name (but even if he wasn’t, Taki wasn’t that long of a name either) for mouth-feel related balance reasons. 

   It was really hard but Noriaki just felt right at the end of the day for a baby born in the season of fall and at sea no less. 

   And, maybe, one day, he would even grow up and develop a fondness for Aqua or Fish type decks. Wouldn’t that be amusing? If he followed in the footsteps of his family when it came to Duel Monsters. Seaweed would be a good name for such a duellist. 

   Until then. Ryoken did have a point. He was probably going to be correcting tons of people regarding the kanji of his name. Good thing, or maybe a bad thing, he was going to be homeschooled for most of his life…

   “I’d love to.” Ryoken said. “What about you?” He turned his head to look at Spectre.

   Spectre was… not so discreetly excited by the idea of holding Noriaki.

   The topic of Spectre and babies was a thorny one to say the least. His past made it hard, he was a good example of what happened when babies were abandoned and what negative outcomes could develop thereof. 

   However, he had experience. Far more than Ryoken as there had been instances when he was at the orphanage where his caregivers tried to funnel his clear familial cravings into the younger kids that had also come into their care. It hadn’t worked. He hadn’t much interest in human babies but clearly, his feelings had appeared to have changed, and become more complicated, since then as his smile was surprisingly kind. If hidden.

   “I’m not opposed to it.” Spectre said, his teeth were chattering through the nervousness that he was trying to suppress.

   Ryoken, meanwhile, was much more gungho. He was eager, willing to learn.

   Of course, Ryoken (and by extension, Spectre and Genome, too) had been forced to read parenting books and books on foetal development, and baby development, too. But that was all theory. The practice involved less books which were notably very still and stable creatures and more babies which were not known to be very still nor all that stable. 

   Still, Aso was confident as he entrusted his son into Ryoken’s arms. The exchange was difficult, Ryoken only sort of knew was he was doing and as soon as Noriaki left Aso’s arms, already so known and precious to him, he began to scream. And screech. 

   Ryoken made a face, awkward, as he held Noriaki with not quite enough support. He did his best, even if Noriaki was being troublesome and Spectre, hovered by Ryoken’s side, wanting to correct both their postures.

   “It’s okay, it’s okay, Daddy’s right there.” Ryoken tried to goad Noriaki.

   Ryoken tried to pull faces for Noriaki but Noriaki’s eyes were tightly closed. Aso leaned over him and tried to do the same. That half helped. They both cooed at Noriaki and Noriaki still screamed. Ryoken’s nervousness began to increase as he tried to keep Noriaki calm and Noriaki was having absolutely none of it.

   “M-May I?” Spectre asked. His voice practically drowned out by Noriaki’s screaming, however.

   “Yes Spectre, you may.” Aso said, cringing through the absolute ordinance that Noriaki was concocting. It was though he didn’t need to breathe.

   “Good luck.” Ryoken whispered.

   He shuffled in closer next to Spectre, trying to rock Noriaki calm but that didn’t seem to be helping. Though, he hadn’t noticed any additional weight in Noriaki’s bundle which might be the culprit for his sudden shift in demeanour. He had been much more better behaved in mama’s arms.

   And, also, Spectre’s. Apparently.

   Ryoken helped to deposit Noriaki into Spectre’s awaiting arms and he had a much better posture for both himself and Noriaki. Noriaki blinked a couple times once he realised that he had been moved around like a football but now. He had stopped moving and he paused to consider what that meant and so. He went quiet.

   Quiet for one second, then two, and then a minute. He seemed content and as did Spectre. Ryoken smiled, fondly, as Spectre got more confident with holding Noriaki. His nerves had settled and so, his face lit up as he held little baby Noriaki. Spectre was gentle and just over the moon. His smile, though wobbly, was getting wider and wider the longer he held Noriaki and the longer Norki was quiet.

   Spectre was so much more confident holding Noriaki, too, especially compared to Ryoken. He looked so uncharacteristically soft and vulnerable as he held Noriaki close and better still.

   Noriaki had no complaints for being held by Spectre. He quietened down in Spectre’s arms, too. Again, especially compared to Ryoken. In fact, Noriaki had appeared to have fallen asleep in Spectre’s care, which made sense. He was rocking him ever so slightly so as to not disturb the adults around him but at the same time, he couldn’t help himself.

   Noriaki was so tiny and warm. His existence was so blissful at present, wrought in screaming having just been born mere hours ago, but the legacies he would come to inherit would grow so complicated. Perhaps he should never have been born, perhaps he would wish one day that he had never been born. For now, he wished for dreamland and for mother’s milk. 

   For now, he was a welcomed addition to the family that they were making in the wake of what had brought them all together. Noriaki’s existence was fraught but he was going to be cherished nonetheless. There was no doubt.

   “Do you guys want a picture?” Genome asked and he had his Polaroid at the ready.

   “I’m not really the pictures type, you know that.” Spectre said.

   “Nonsense, I want a souvenir of you two meeting Noriaki for the first time.” Kyoko pouted.

   “I’d like one too.” Ryoken added.

   “Alright.” Spectre said.

   Ryoken smiled and he snaked his arm around Spectre’s lower back. He leaned into him and embraced him, kissing him on the side of his face, making Spectre go even more camera shy. Genome rolled his eyes but managed to take a photo regardless. 

   “I know you probably don’t want to hear this,” Ryoken whispered into Spectre’s ear, “but I think in another life, you would’ve been a good parent.” He held his pose beside Spectre as they listened to the polaroid click and whirr at Genome’s use of it.

   “What was that?” Genome asked, his voice grumbly as he shook out the photo that had been printed. “Why not share it with everyone?”

   Spectre’s face began to go red.

   “I was just saying that we appear to have found Noriaki’s favourite.” Ryoken lied, matter-of-fact. 

   “Hm… Probably true.” Genome agreed but he knew that he was being lied to. 

   Aso laughed and he came around to Spectre to collect Noriaki.

   Sure enough, Noriaki stirred and began to cry again. All the typical infant newborn stuff but it was oddly endearing despite the lungs that he had on him. He could scream and he could scream loud. Aso sighed as he tried to calm Noriaki, all whilst Spectre fussed, embarrassed. The whole changeover was kind of clumsy but Noriaki’s crying complicated it.

   “I think you might be right, Ryoken, I think Noriaki might have a second favourite already.” Kyoko said, with some correction. She knew that once Noriaki made it back to her, she would undoubtedly be his absolute favourite as mama. Favourite uncle or male relative, perhaps. “Also, Genome, I wanna see the picture of Ryoken and Spectre, did it turn out good?”

   Genome hummed thoughtfully as he actually checked the photo. He smiled a small smile. He was chuffed enough by the results but when he went over to the side of the bed where Kyoko laid to show it to her, she squealed in delight.

   The photo had turned out excellent. The polaroid picture was shiny and glossy, perfectly capturing the moment of Ryoken kissing Spectre and Spectre holding Noriaki who was a tiny bundle of blue blankets in his arms with his tomato red face peeking through. It would make a wonderful souvenir in years to come, Kyoko was sure as she beamed, gazing at it.

   “Oh, it's adorable.” Kyoko gushed. “You both look like the perfect picture of fatherhood. Out of context, anyway.” She laughed.

   Spectre continued to go red. Right to the tips of his ears. He sputtered wanting to say something - anything - but was floundering. Ryoken, meanwhile, was taking the joke much better. He couldn’t be more amused at hearing Kyoko saying his quiet part out loud and Genome was still grumpy. He was demoting very quickly as favourite uncle. At least he could still be Spectre’s favourite.

   She showed the photo to Aso as he stood next to her, holding Noriaki.

   “Mm, it's a good photo.” Aso agreed.

   “Yes, well, I have many talents now, don’t I?” Genome piped up, disgruntled.

   “You do.” Kyoko giggled.

   She leaned in and brushed kisses into Noriaki’s hairline. He had sparse hair, the colour of which couldn’t be fully determined just yet as it was thin and slicked down over his skull but it might have been a very, very dark blue (like dad) or perhaps an auburn (like mum, just influenced by dad). 

   “I love you so much, Nori…” Kyoko murmured. She noisily kissed him some more.

   It was hard not to watch with swelling hearts, the utter adoration mother had onto son. They would all have a part to play, of course. To help out. To justify the peril of bring new life into the world in the long wake - fifteen years, to be exact - after their crimes.

   But it was healing. That’s what they told themselves. They were going to raise and protect Noriaki, he would one day grow up into a capable young man and citizen of the world. That was their promise. Ryoken reached out to Spectre and took his hand to wordlessly hold it. Spectre squeezed it back, holding back tears in his eyes. They were going to do their best - all of them, Kyoko, Aso, Genome, Ryoken and Spectre: all of them - and it was going to be healing.

I just finished answering one of these and now I wanna know yours. Top 10 straight OTPs?

1.) Ben and Leslie - Parks and Recreation

If this was my OTPs list, they’d be second after Gallavich, but since this is straight couples, they have to be my number one. Amy Poehler and Adam Scott had great chemistry. Adam Scott played a lot of creepy/bad guys before this. So, when he showed up in Pawnee, I didn’t know what to make of him when he came in at the end of season 2. Pretty quickly I realized I was not only going to love the character of Ben Wyatt but we finally found Leslie Knope’s perfect match! I’ll never forget the moment I knew I was going to ship them. It was at the Freddy Spaghetti concert when Ben helped Leslie after he was against doing the concert in the first place. As soon as I saw Ben give Leslie that look as she walked away, I knew I was all in with this ship. That’s all it took! Leslie finally met someone who got her, admired her, was in awe of her, and was so supportive of her and her ambitions. They were both willing to put their jobs at risk by making their relationship known. And if you know Leslie Knope, her job is her life. Leslie’s love for Ben’s butt is also something I loved. Their love for each other is so beautiful and one of my favorite things about this amazing show.

2.) Ava and Boyd - Justified

Joelle Carter and Walton Goggins did amazing work together onscreen. Ava and Boyd Crowder did not have the most conventional start to their romantic relationship, seeing as Ava was married to Boyd’s brother. For me, that is a deal-breaker! I know they’re not blood relatives but it’s still weird to me when in-laws get together. In the pilot, we learn Ava has just killed her husband in self-defense and Boyd was supposed to be killed off in that episode. The powers that be, loved both Joelle and Walton so much they brought them back for more and they were series regulars for the rest of the series run. To keep Ava part of the storyline, they had Boyd staying at Ava’s house in season 2. It all evolved from there. I had no intention of shipping these two during season 1, but by season 2, I was all about Ava and Boyd getting together. They were the true definition of a power couple. They even had matching bullet scares on their chest! They stood side by side as a strong force against anyone who tried to overpower them or intimidate them in their growing criminal enterprise. Boyd really saw Ava, treated her with respect, and saw her as his equal. They had a long history, even went to the same high school together. I always love a couple who has known each other since they were kids. I never thought I would root for current or former in-laws, but it was hard not to fall in love with them.

3.) Jess and Nick - New Girl

I knew I was going to ship them from the very first episode. They are everything I love in a good ship, complete opposites who bring out the best in each other, who are also friends. Over the years, any time Jess would describe her perfect man, she was always describing Nick without realizing it. Once she was asked what her dream guy would be, and she said Walter Matthau in Grumpy Old Men and Nick fits that perfectly. He really is like a grumpy old man. There was nothing these two wouldn’t do for each other. One example of this was when Jess burns her finger on a cigarette lighter in the car and Nick puts his finger in the cigarette lighter so they would be in the same amount of pain. Who even does that?! I was so happy when they finally had their first kiss and when they officially got together. Those are some of my favorite episodes when they were finally dating. Any time they dated anyone else it became even more clear how much better they are together. They never fit with anyone else as well as they fit together. They really were perfect for each other.

4.) Corey and Topanga - Boy Meets World

Corey and Topanga are the OG’s of childhood sweethearts on TV. They’ve known each other their whole lives and were very believable in their genuine love for each other. It’s not always easy to believe that people who get married that young can make it work, but these two always seemed to defy those odds. They got married during their sophomore year of college. Today I would be like whoa that’s too soon to get married! But they felt so right together, I believe I would still think they made the right choice. I may be biased because I grew up watching this show and I was even younger than them at that time, but it always felt like they were meant to be. I still remember what a big deal their wedding was. My friends and I were so excited about that episode. They clearly did do the right thing because the show came back as Girl Meets World, which was more focused on their daughter than them, so of course, I wasn’t planning on watching all that. The only good thing to come out of that reboot, for me, was to get confirmation that Corey and Topanga were still together and had two kids. 

5.) Arnold and Helga - Hey Arnold!

This was a very one-sided crush on Helga’s part for years! This was another show I grew up on. I shipped them so hard because Helga was obsessively in love with Arnold. It definitely wasn’t a healthy obsession, but she really loved him. It was hard not to root for her. She fell in love with him when he was the first to notice her and be nice to her on their first day of preschool. A part of me could identify with her at that time in my life. I was in 5th grade and was experiencing my first love too. She was always so mean to Arnold because she was terrified for anyone to even suspect she had a major crush on him. The best way to describe Arnold is through Helga’s own words, he’s “a funny little football-headed kid with a good heart but no sense of reality”. Helga was realistic and tough but very poetic and sweet in private. In 2017, when Hey Arnold! The Jungle Movie came out, I was really hoping she would finally come clean with Arnold about her feelings. It FINALLY happened! That was 21 years in the making. Talk about slow burn!

6.) Tiffani and Jake - California Dreams

Jake and Tiffani are one of my very first ships ever. They were high school students who were in a band called California Dreams together. They were like night and day. She was the surfer type, who was positive, sunny, and friendly. Whereas Jake was a biker type who scared everyone. They were even too scared to let him audition for the band. He played guitar and would sometimes sing and write some of their songs. He wasn’t the main singer of the band, but he would sing every once in a while. She played the bass and would sometimes sing too. They did have a breakup that was heartbreaking for me. He dated their friend Lorena for a short time, and it felt so forced and didn’t work at all. Again, I could be biased because I love Jake and Tiffani, but Jake himself and Lorena realized they didn’t work either. That’s when Jake realized he was still very much in love with Tiffani, and they got back together. This show also had the best theme song ever! I sing it every single time I hear it and when I do hear it, it’s stuck in my head all day.

7.) Monica and Chandler - Friends

I always preferred Monica and Chandler over Ross and Rachel. They were never on and off like Ross and Rachel, which would get tiresome. We never had to deal with that with Monica and Chandler. Obviously, they are friends and know each other so well that it was easy for them to get through anything because of it.

8.) Castle and Beckett - Castle

Richard Castle and Kate Beckett had amazing chemistry, even after the actors themselves were no longer getting along behind the scenes. I am amazed at how they were still able to be so believable at being very much in love with each other. Castle, a best-selling mystery novelist, and Beckett, a New York City homicide detective. Castle is inspired by Beckett and she becomes his muse for a new book he is writing. Castle uses his connections with the mayor to force the police to let him shadow Beckett. Their personalities clash in the beginning but they soon find their groove and become friends and great partners at solving crimes. The will they, won’t they was excruciating at times but paid off when they finally got together.

9.) Sabrina and Harvey - Sabrina The Teenage Witch

Sabrina and Harvey were such a cute couple. I already went into this show knowing they were meant to be because of the Sabrina comic books. Harvey was always the boyfriend. So, when Harvey left the show after season 4, I was surprised and saddened. Especially, since Harvey had finally learned about her powers. He did guest star in season 5 but was brought back for the last two seasons. I really loved when he came back because Sabrina and Harvey’s relationship was so much better after he knew about her powers. They didn’t get back together and were only friends but whenever things got complicated, he was there to help her now that he knew she was a witch. She didn’t have to hide who she really was or lie to him anymore and I really loved how that changed their relationship. Sabrina was dating someone else at this time and was going to marry this other guy, but she doesn’t go through with it. For once I can actually say Sabrina and Harvey are soulmates and really mean it! Remember she is a witch and has a soul stone and Harvey was given one too. Harvey is waiting for Sabrina outside the church when she comes out and they kiss. Their soul stones drop to the ground and fit perfectly at 12:36pm, the exact time they first met seven years ago.Then they drive off together in his motorcycle.

10.) Kelly and Zack - Saved by The Bell

Who didn’t grow up in the 90′s and wasn’t shipping Zack and Kelly? I thought they were the most gorgeous couple I had ever seen. Saved by The Bell: The College Years wasn’t a great show, but I was happy to see Zack and Kelly went to the same college, and eventually, we got to see them get married in a TV movie with Saved by The Bell: Wedding in Las Vegas.

asshole otp prompts (but jester’s a sweetheart so i took some Liberties with this one)

thank you @roguestorm once again i owe you my life!! have 1.6k words of college au beaujester, everyone. im kind of in love with this concept

Beauregard Lionett was not having a good day.

She'd missed her bus and had to run to campus to make her eleven o'clock lecture, and had found out that class was cancelled when she showed up, wheezing and sweat-soaked, to an empty room. That would have been bad enough— even if she hadn’t pulled an all-nighter to finish an essay by a deadline that just got extended— but when she went to pull out her water bottle she found the cap on crooked and half her backpack soaked. On its own, that would have been enraging. With everything else, it was enough to make Beau wheel around and punch the wall with a shout. The wall was unmoved. Beau swore loud enough to take the rust off a bike chain, and shook out her knuckles.

She went down to the cafeteria to beg one of the staff for a bag of ice, but was met by a line stretching a good thirty feet out the caf door— so that was a bust. She rerouted to the athletic center, where she asked for the icepack out of their first aid kit, but was politely stonewalled by a handsome butch who Beau might have asked out if she hadn’t been so pissed off about her busted hand. Finally, she gave up and made for the showers, where she scrubbed off the worst of the sweat and changed into the only spare clothes she had on campus— a ratty set of gym shorts and a shirt that was more stain than fabric. She looked like shit, which seemed about right for how she felt.

By the time two o’clock finally rolled around, Beau had resigned herself to the fact that her life was dissolving into a steaming, irredeemable pile of garbage. Her fingers were starting to swell up in a way that made her think she might’ve actually broken a couple of them, and she winced at the thought of cramming them into a boxing glove at practice tomorrow. One way or another, though, she was due at work. Her shift started at two-thirty, so she made her way morosely to the library and plodded to the elevator for the eighth floor.

Beau usually liked the library. Architecturally, it was a bit of a postmodernist nightmare… all concrete and steel, slapped together to make a building that was taller than it needed to be and twice as ugly. But Beau didn’t tend to judge on appearances, and the energy of the place was great. Full of the hum of people chatting and studying and asking questions. Busy, but quiet. Sometimes she’d go deep into the stacks and just inhale the smell of the old paper for a few minutes. It always calmed her down.

What she didn’t like, though, were how fucking slow the elevators were. It took them thirty seconds to make it up or down a single story, like they were getting towed by goddamn snails. There were two of them, because that’s what accessibility laws dictated, but whatever money the school had put into quantity had clearly come out of the quality budget. Getting to the rare books section on the eighth floor took five minutes, more if anyone else got on or off. People rarely did. It was faster to take the stairs. Usually, Beau would be right there with them and call it cardio, but today she felt sorry for herself, so she grumbled something incoherent and mashed the close door button until the doors began to slide shut.

Began.

They were stopped by another student clutching an armful of art supplies, who fucking skipped in the door and flashed Beau an infuriatingly wide smile. She was pretty— on the short side and a little chubby, wearing a frilly dress and so much jewelry that Beau was surprised she didn’t rattle every time she took a step. She radiated positivity. It was tremendously irritating.

Beau scowled at her, and started mashing the button again.

The girl pursed her lips. “You know, you seem very cranky.” She had a strong accent— probably an international student. Somehow, she even made the insult sound bubbly.

Then she grinned, and with surprising speed, reached out a hand and pressed the button for the seventh floor. Then the sixth. Then the fifth. Beau realized what she was doing and tried to swat the girl’s hand out of the way, but she was much stronger than Beau had been expecting, and managed to fend her off for long enough to hit the remaining buttons before the elevator doors finally shut.

The elevator began its agonizingly slow climb upwards.

“Fuck you,” muttered Beau, which she wouldn’t usually have said to a stranger, but this was a bad day.

“Don’t be like that,” said the girl brightly. “It’s a prank. Pranks are funny!”

“It’s not fucking funny,” said Beau, but there wasn’t much heart in it.

The girl seemed chronically incapable of taking a hint, and stuck her hand out to shake. “I’m Jester! Nice to meet you.”

Beau very pointedly did not shake her hand. Jester, at least, had the good grace to look a little bit hurt, and dropped her hand back to her side.

“I’m not your friend,” snapped Beau. “I don’t know what you were thinking. What an asshole move. We’re gonna be stuck in here for ages now.”

There was a long, awkward silence. The doors opened, then closed on the second floor.

“Sorry,” mumbled Jester.

Beau looked up. The girl looked genuinely sad, hugging her sketchbooks close to her chest like they were a teddy bear. The brief catharsis Beau had gotten from yelling at her curdled into guilt.

“Aw, shit,” said Beau. “Don’t cry.”

“I’m not crying,” said Jester.

“Fuck, just— I’m sorry, you’re not an asshole, or whatever.”

Jester sniffled, just a bit. “You just seemed grumpy. I thought it might make you laugh.”

“Why would you want to make me laugh?”

Jester looked at her like she’d grown a second head. “Because you were sad, obviously! But I got it wrong, and now I’m an asshole.”

Beau squinted at her. “What do you care if I’m sad?”

The doors opened on the third floor. A couple of guys walked past the elevators before the doors shut again, and the elevator resumed its climb.

“I don’t like it when people are sad,” said Jester. “I know it’s important and all, and— and— well, whatever, but sometimes I’m good at making people smile. And everyone likes smiling.”

“I’m awful at smiling,” said Beau. “It makes me look like I’m, like, super constipated.”

“Nobody’s bad at smiling,” said Jester with all the confidence of a white boy in a first-year politics class. “Everyone is beautiful when they smile. Only when they mean it, though. Only when they’re actually happy. Fake smiles aren’t the same.”

“You think nobody’s bad at smiling? You’ve never seen me smile,” Beau countered.

Fourth floor. One of the librarians got on, nose buried in an old paperback. Neither of them said anything until the librarian got off at the next floor, and it was just the two of them again.

Jester picked back up like they’d never paused the conversation, and said with a shrug: “I bet you have a pretty smile. Maybe you just don’t show it to people very often. That’s okay. It makes it precious. Like a diamond, or a ruby. It’s rare, so it’s special.”

Beau was a little taken aback. “Did you really come running onto this elevator and push all the buttons because you thought it might make me laugh?”

Jester’s face clouded over again. “It was stupid. I’m sorry.”

“No, no, it—” Beau snorted. “It was stupid, but it’s, uh, kinda sweet. I’ve never known someone who’d just do that because they saw a stranger having a bad day.”

Sixth floor.

“I’m Beau,” said Beau finally, and held out her hand to shake. Jester smiled widely and went to grab it, before she stopped and her eyes went wide. “Oh man, your hand is super broken!”

Beau winced. “Uh, yeah. I had a disagreement with a concrete wall.”

“You should go to the hospital,” Jester said. “That is really swollen. I bet they give you a cast. They make them in any colour you want now, you know.”

Beau shrugged. “I have work. I’ll call a walk-in clinic later.”

Jester looked like she was about to say something, but thought better of it. Instead, she shifted her sketchbooks to her other arm, and held out her left hand instead. Beau reached out with her good hand and gave it a shake.

“Sorry for pushing all the buttons,” Jester said.

Despite herself, Beau cracked a smile. “No, it’s okay. I guess you did it for the right reasons.”

Jester grinned. “I told you so!”

“Told me what?”

“That you had a cute smile! This is my floor,” she said as the elevator came to a stop on the seventh. “I gotta meet my study buddy. Maybe I’ll see you around, Beau! That means handsome in French, you know.”

The doors opened, and Jester skipped out, and they started to close. Beau watched her go, not entirely sure of what had just happened. The elevator suddenly felt very lonely.

Beau whacked the Door Open button, and ran out after her. “Wait!”

Jester spun around. “Hi!”

“I, uh—” Beau fumbled through her pockets, looking for a pen. “Can I— can I give you my number?”

And Jester smiled, a big, bright, real smile, and in that moment Beau understood what she’d meant when she said people were beautiful when they were happy.

“Here!” Jester said, and pulled out a glittery gel pen with a pom-pom on the top. “I’ll give you mine.”

Ship Headcanons for BanHoji

otp rambling that got way too long (~1k) based on this post

First to confess their feelings: Ban

Hoji is too good at avoiding risks, he likes his life stable as it is, and would 10/10 talk himself out of the initial attraction to Ban. Confessing to Hoji is the only way for Ban to stop Hoji from ignoring the very-mutual interest, it’s like saying ‘Look at me, I’m here, I like you, you can’t run away now!’

First to apologize after a fight: Ban

He can’t stand being treated indifferently by Hoji. Ban likes their useless banters, likes having Hoji’s attention on him. Receiving Hoji’s professional stoned-face treatment, which is reserved for most of the auxiliary officers in base, is annoying. Like Ban isn’t special anymore. So anything but that.

First to wake up: Hoji

Six on the dot without any alarm. If they were up late the night before, he allows himself an extra hour until seven, when Ban’s alarm wakes everybody up except for Ban, whose internal clock is set to twenty before eight. Besides, waking up early means Hoji gets to watch Ban drooling onto the blanket to make fun of him later. 

First to fall asleep: Ban

He spends way too much energy bouncing around people during the day, indulging in various shenanigans with Tetsu and Umeko when there isn’t a case and arguing with Hoji about useless stuff. Yes, he crashes first, but only after wholeheartedly participating in other nighttime activity.

The affectionate one: Both

Ban likes to hang onto Hoji, draping his arm on Hoji’s shoulders, leaning on Hoji when he can because that’s a perfectly acceptable amount of touching in public. In private, he’s an octopus, can’t get rid of him. Hoji gives out hair ruffles and shoulder pats, but sometimes he forgets and does a little caress on Ban’s neck. The entire team notices.

The overprotective one: Both

Ban knows Hoji can fight his own battle, but his temper could handle only so much before he snaps and threatens to punch someone in the face for shit talking to Hoji. Hoji appreciates it in private; in public, he yanks on Ban’s collar and admonishes him for acting stupid while wearing a badge. Meanwhile Hoji was scared to death after Ban’s stunt with the meteor; he’s a little bit more vigilant with any danger coming Ban’s way despite knowing Ban can totally handle it.

The money savvy one: Hoji

Ban can’t exactly get his salary deposited while being undercover. When he gets back, there is a lot of money to be spent. He orders sushi delivery all the way to F.S. base, sends Hoji presents all the way to Earth--might have impulsively put down a deposit for a house before Hoji finds out and makes Ban stop splurging. Hoji manages the joint account when they move in together. He also coupons.

The more charismatic/popular one: Both

Hoji and his work ethics make him appear serious from outside views. He’s basically a perfect all-rounder Deka, so a lot of people admire him from afar (not knowing about him reverting to a five-year-old when it comes to fighting with Ban.) Ban is overly friendly, a whole puppy, able to get the most shy aux. officer to talk about her cats and Academy sweetheart. 

The better caregiver when the other is sick: Hoji

Hoji practically raises Miwa, he has to know everything about over-the-counter medicine and children’s sickness, and the ultimate way to make delicious porridge for a child who was picky. He still has how-to books back in the family house. Ban doesn’t get sick often, but Hoji totally has it under control when Ban does. 

Does the cooking: Hoji

Again, Miwa. So obviously he knows how to cook and has years of experience. He also (secretly) enjoys seeing Ban eating his food and gushing about how much he loves it. Ban eats canteen food before Hoji, knows how to perfectly recreate his mother’s old yakisoba recipe, but oversalts everything else.

Does the housework: Both

They both have busy schedules, whoever is free will do the laundry and stock up on groceries at the end of the week. Bathroom cleaning is twice a month, they’ll take turns. Deep house cleaning is done when they both have the same day off. They make a date out of it. Usually finishing in the afternoon, leaving enough time for fancy dinner and a mystery movie on the couch. 

Does most of the speaking: Ban

Ban speaks about everything and anything, telling Hoji about Murphy, his new F.S. teammates, and the food he manages to cook. Not much about mission because, well, classified. He’s constantly curious about Hoji’s days, has an opinion on almost everything. He’s low-key scared that if they run out of things to talk, Hoji will hang up. Hoji usually stays on the phone until Ban falls asleep without knowing.

Designated driver: Ban

Ban’s been behind the wheels since he was fifteen. Pat Striker is like an extension of his body. He can drive anything that has four or more wheels easy. Hoji prefers the motorcycle, and hasn't driven a car since he got Machine Husky and Pat Gyror. Well, by the time they move in together, SPD finally developed teleportation tech. But Ban drives on occasion. 

Has good penmanship: Hoji

Before the report system completely switches to digital, they have to write reports out by hand in pen and enter copies in the computer system. Hoji’s reports look like they were printed with Yu Gothic font eleven, consistently every time. Boss makes Ban redo his report once every two that he turns in because his handwriting is basically illegible. 

Has a troubled past: Ban

When he was thirteen, one of the cram school teachers pulled him out of class and told him his mother was dead; an Alienizer’s attack wiped out the entire neighborhood where he lived. His extended family was fighting about who should keep a daughter-in-law’s son. A Dekaranger, whose face Ban didn’t remember, attended the funeral and mentioned to Ban about SPD Academy.

Has more experience with relationship: Hoji

Ban got friendzoned by Zamuzan Maira. Hoji sort of got rejected by Vino back in their Academy days. Hoji almost got to third base with Mikean Teresa. It’s one to two, leaning toward Hoji. Ban is eager to learn new things though.

Keeps more secrets in the relationship: None

Being intergalactic-long-distanced married means they can’t afford secrets, but they do try to downplay injuries from the job to prevent worrying the other. Want to find out accurate status update? Contact Jasmine for Hoji’s, and Mari Gold for Ban’s.

Sensitive to subtle changes in their partner: Hoji

For all the smiles and the pouts that Ban wears clearly on his face, he’s very private with his pain and insecurities. Those he shoves down to somewhere in his chest and hopes by the time they come back up, he won’t be as affected anymore. Hoji doesn’t push the issue, but he lets Ban know that Ban doesn’t have to fake anything with him. 

The one who proposes: Hoji

It’s supposed to be a surprise for Christmas, but he impulsively does it in front of the team during overtime. Because what the heck, might as well because the ring is right here, and Ban sees it already. But then they both overthink, and cases/things happen, so Hoji has to do it again, private from the team, but very much in front of strangers, on one knee. 

The one who dies protecting their partner: Ban

Episode 43, please it’s canon. Seriously though, Ban’s body would move before he even thinks about how sad Hoji would be, about Hoji having to clean up the mess after and organizing services. Shame that he makes Hoji cry, but even as he lies in F.S. uniform soaking in a similar red, he wouldn’t say he regrets it.

Ikaw at Ako — jeongcheol

— short taglish fanfic

— Sequel of Kabilang Buhay (VerKwan)

— OTP: JeongCheol

— now playing:  Ikaw at Ako by Moira

Wala naman sa tagal yan it was on the person kung sigurado ka na ba and in this case Jeonghan was more than sure about loving Seungcheol even after life he would do anything for Seungcheol, for his Mahal.

The dinner went well Seungkwan been talking to everyone the dinner was quite noisy puno ng kwento ang birthday ni Seungkwan unlike before the first birthday Seungkwan celebrated and Jeonghan was happy for Seungkwan.

“You know Kwan anak ka na namin we are family here sana wag mo hahayaan yung sarili mo sumaya cause I know Vernon would do the same kilala mo si Vernon he wouldn’t let you be sad forever Kwan kapag may dumating na iba ipakilala mo samin we wouldn’t get mad Vernon and of course kami gusto namin sumaya ka” His Tita Ma said that made Seungkwan tear up

“You should wear that often Kwan kapag may problema nandito lang ako we can talk about it” Jeonghan added and Seungkwan hug his Jeonghan hyung and thank him

Everything was just too perfect until Seungcheol took the night he proposed to his long time boyfriend in front of his family no their family because Jeonghan is already part of the family.

“It took us 12years to come here baka ngayon mahal pwede na baka this time pwedeng tayo na yung pwede na isipin naman natin yung sariling atin I saw how irritated at you when people always ask you when will get married and the same questions hurt you It took us 12years overdue na nga kasi dapat after 5years I was about to propose na but shits happen you been there on my down fall you been there at my highs and you saw how weak am I and its time for me to choose my own path mahal ko Jeonghan would you like to spend the rest of your life with me let’s build our family now mahal, Will you marry me?”

Jeonghan was crying and he nods at Seungcheol he wipe Jeonghan’s tears and kissed Jeonghan’s temple.

“I love you Mahal”

“I love you Mahal ko”

Everyone congratulated them and everyone hug Jeonghan the dinner was indeed fun not just for Jeonghan but also for everyone finally they are looking forward on their next event.

“Congrats Kuyas” Seungkwan mumbles and they thank Seungkwan.

—A YEAR AFTER  —

Seungcheol and Jeonghan are now married everyone been congratulating them even the law firm was too happy for their bosses it’s already a year and they adopted a baby boy and name it Lucas he was 7years old everything was settled.

Jeonghan didn’t knew that he would wake up with his sweetest baby and husband who loves him unconditionally tita ma doesn’t want Seungcheol and Jeonghan to look for the house and they know why kasi losing Vernon was painful and losing Seungcheol next to her will hurt her more and the house is too big for the 3 of them.

Seungkwan often plays with Lucas they are playmate Seungkwan’s working from home and he always make sure that the company and his time with Lucas are balance.

“Goodmorning papa” Lucas said as he kissed his papa and hug him next

“Goodmorning baby you wakes up early”

“Tito Seungkwan and I will play later papa”

“Okay”

“Goodmorning asawa ko”

“Goodmorning mahal” Jeonghan replied

“Papa, Daddy I’ll go to tito Seungkwan I’ll play with Bokkeu”

“Okay do not disturb your tito so much okay” Jeonghan mumbles and Lucas smile

“Okay Papa”

Seungcheol and Jeonghan was left in the room an hour they are just making out until they ended up having an s** they are married couple for an year yet this is the first time they do it.

Jeonghan yawned and Seungcheol smile at how adorable his husband was how perfect Jeonghan in his eyes.

Seungcheol put their clothes on and let Jeonghan sleep he just lay next to his husband until he feel asleep too they just wake up because Lucas is jumping on the bed trying to wake them up

“Papa, Daddy it was lunch time mamita is calling you both na” Lucas said and the two headed in the dining room Jeonghan waist is still hurting Seungcheol went rough on their love making and he was just gladly that no one ask they just cant stop laughing Jeonghan hits Seungcheol

“Why they are laughing Papa?” Lucas ask

“Nothing baby eat now you said you will play with tito kwan and bokkeu pa”

“Okay papa” Lucas happily said

The lunch when quiet and everyone is enjoying the meal Jeonghan finish first he have papers to fix he has a lot of works he took a day off yesterday and he have to review a case that his secretary sent him.

“Han saan ka punta?”

“I have some case to review pa mommy” Jeonghan said and they nods and Jeonghan excuse himself

Seungcheol went to their room Jeonghan is in his table studying an case wearing his reading classes his eye brows are meeting already

“Is it hard?” Seungcheol ask

“Nahh it’s just I am having an hard time this case is giving me an Deja vu feelings it seems like I already finished this one” Jeonghan mumbles and Seungcheol nods

Jeonghan held 100 of cases and he win it all he was one of the greatest lawyer in their law firm and Seungcheol was just holding 3-5 cases which he shouldn’t be because he was the CEO of the law firm but some times when their employees aren’t feeling well Seungcheol was always there.

“You will do well there asawa ko I wouldn’t disturb you na I love you” Seungcheol said and Jeonghan smile

When Jeonghan said he wanted to spend his whole life with Seungcheol he really mean it. Seungcheol is the only choices he was sure about and he wouldn’t regret 12years of being an couple and a year of being an married couple, Jeonghan will spend his life with Seungcheol even right after their after life he will surely choose Seungcheol, his Seungcheol.

About the ultimate ship meme - how do you feel about starting it with Tim & Kon?

Ho Ho, you know how to pander to my interests :D

About this

General:

Rate the Ship -  Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs

How long will they last? Forever

How quickly did/will they fall in love?Over the years. Like there’s a layout since the beginning, the way they’re always calling out to each other than indicates a passion that could possibly one day turn into romance, but that’s it. Imo It started between the moment Kon started to live with the Kent and the end of the preboot (and I do mean started, they basically had 2 years for the friendship to turn romantic). Nothing happened the feelings were really there and it was actual romantic love instead of just having romantic feelings for the other (mostly because I don’t think they’ll realize it’s not just friendship until…a little while).I honestly don’t see them get together until they’re 19-20 at least 

How was their first kiss? I have so many different hc for that one. One of my favorite is just that they started kissing each other on the cheek when they’re going back home or something (like “Gotta get back to Ma, See ya later guys” *bends slightly to kiss Tim on the cheek ‘cause he was just there, because they’re almost always next to each other*) and like at one point it turns into a peck on the lips. And they don’t realize it happened until the next time they do it because then there’s someone with them who just gets completely shocked and it just…hits them.

Wedding:

Who proposed? I don’t know? I think it just might have come up in a conversation and neither actually remembers who proposed. (I can also see them going a lifetime always forgetting to pop up the question ‘cause they’re already married in their mind)

Who is the best man/men? Dick and Bart obviously

Who is the braid’s maid(s)? Cass and Cassie. People make fun of that…a lot.Maybe Barbara and Roxi too.

Who did the most planning? The Wedding Planner, Ma and Bart. DO NOT leave these two to plan anything

Who stressed the most? Either Both or Neither. I don’t think they’d see it as such a big deal. The hardest part would probably be if they did a civilian and a hero wedding.

How fancy was the ceremony?  Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big.I’m torn because on the one hand neither wants to do something big, on the other hand, they’ll probably do something a bit fancy to please other people and/or the paparazzi. I’m not sure how religious Conner is but Tim isn’t so I didn’t pick the 5th one for obvious reasons.

Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? I’m not sure if there’s anyone who they specifically don’t want at the wedding. Maybe Jason? But he and Tim are on relatively good terms by the end of the preboot but not enough to invite him anyway so…

Sex:

Who is on top? they’re probably versatile

Who is the one to instigate things? Probably depends on the moment?

How healthy is their sex life? Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now I’d say healthy but I honestly try to never think about it so… (also this seems to be “do they have a high libido” rather than actually thinking about how healthy their sex life is)

How kinky are they? Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s head Literally no idea. so I’m shooting in the dark (no awful pun intended)

How long do they normally last? Considering their training/Genetics they probably have a lot of stamina so…

Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? Probably yeah. They might have a contest as to who gives more to the other though

How rough are they in bed? Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.Probably depends on their state of mind

How much cuddling/snuggling do they do?  No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.

Children:

How many children will they have naturally? lol (unless you think of them using the cloning devices Tim tries to use to recreate Conner, that Cadmus had used to create him in the first place…then I guess…like…1)

How many children will they adopt? Depends on the story I have in mind. I think they’ll only adopt if a child comes their way looking devastated (on of the rare things I think Tim shares with Bruce). I’d say between 0 and 3.One is Helena (yes Catwoman’s daughter…Let’s just say that stuff happens and Tim finds her and she’s been very fond of red and black since she was a kid, so she latches on to him…they never leave each other’s side after that).Another one is totally @Chonaku-Things’ fault with her AU where Tim ends up taking care of Koonak (Mr Freeze’s adopted kid in the Batman cartoon) while Mr Freeze accepted to do his time in Arkham.And another kid whose name I keep changing so I’m gonna call them Maïte ‘cause I like the meaning (also it was my mom’s name so it helps :p).Also knowing that they already have Bart.

Who gets stuck with the most diapers? Both. They find a way to share the task equally (as in they try to get the other to do more and end up doing the same amount)

Who is the stricter parent? Depends. Tim’s stricter for the basic “but you could hurt yourself” stance, where Conner’s much more of an “I’m telling you it’s a bad idea but you can try it, I’ll just be behind you the whole time, making sure you’re okay” parent for basic injury related stuff. Other than that, Kon is stricter on basic health like food, or doctors, he gets scared when there’s a tiny bit of a cough starting anywhere in the household. The rest of the time they either alternate or are as strict/lenient as the other and they always make sure to listen to the other’s reasoning and come to a compromise if need be.

Who stops the kid(s) from doing dangerous stunts after school? Tim, though he doesn’t stop them so much as encourage them to go the less dangerous route “sneakily” (the kids realize it half the time but humor him ‘cause they love being protected from this kind of stuff).They’re both adamant that none of their kids become vigilantes until they’re at least 16-18 though. 

Who remembers to pack the lunch(es)? Conner

Who is the more loved parent? Depends on the kids. Usually, it’s both because like ½ the kids I envision were under Tim’s care before he adopted them (he’s a foster parent in half my post-Reboot AUs, go figure) and before he got together with Kon and they just adopted Kon as a second parent along the way.

Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings? The one who’s free at the moment (so probably Tim 3/5th of the time)

Who cried the most at graduation? Neither but they hugged their kids so much they all got bored and started communicating with their sibling with their eyes, trying to get them off their backs.

Who is more likely to bail the child(ren) out of trouble with the law? Neither really. They’re both pretty honest people who raised honest kids….If the kids are in trouble and they did something they should own up to it however if the law picked on them unjustly (because they’re kids or PoC, or were just at the wrong place at the wrong time), they’ll both raise hell. (In my mind Kon goes on to get a law degree ‘cause he likes finding loopholes so he’s pretty helpful on that side, but Tim has the money so…).

Cooking:

Who does the most cooking? Both. Conner was very adamant in lessening the amount of Junk Food Tim eats because of his asplenia though.

Who is the most picky in their food choice? They’re kind of the same about that one. They each have their No Go Food.

Who does the grocery shopping? Whoever has the time when stores are open….Tim most probably

How often do they bake desserts? At least once a week. Since their Time Table doesn’t always match the one who’s free tries to make something for the other. It becomes a tradition when they have kids to bake a small cake for the other parent to show that they all miss him.

Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? meat lovers. Both of them? Though Conner always feels bad ‘cause he’s helped with the Kent farm and he knows Cows are total sweethearts.

Who is more likely to surprise the other(s) with an anniversary dinner? Both, but neither is actually surprised since they know the other’s tells. It kinda becomes a game over the years that they alternate who plans what and to try and plan something without the other guessing what exactly (the use of specific gear or powers can or cannot be allowed depending on what kind of anniversary they’re celebrating. It’s a lot of stress, frustration and ultimately a very fun part of their lives)

Who is more likely to suggest going out? Both. Again it really depends. Tim’s more of a social butterfly but he probably wants to enjoy his bf’s company in the comfort of their home when he can because of their clashing timetables. So Conner might be the one to actually suggest it because he knows Tim would actually enjoy it.

Who is more likely to burn the house down accidentally while cooking? Both are easily distracted so….

Chores:

Who cleans the room? Conner doesn’t have the choice, if he doesn’t, Tim never will.

Who is really against chores? Tim (Conner’s a close second but someone has to be firm…that someone is Bart)

Who cleans up after the pets? Both

Who is more likely to sweep everything under the rug? Both, but especially Tim.

Who stresses the most when guests are coming over? Conner

Who found a dollar between the couch cushions while cleaning? Both did, they don’t know where they come from, they’re this close to thinking their apartment makes money magically appear (they both rationally know it probably comes from Tim’s or Bruce’s pockets but it’s less fun to think about)

Misc:

Who takes the longer showers/baths? Both

Who takes the dog out for a walk? Both, they take Krypto out together, ‘cause they use the opportunity for a romantic flight

How often do they decorate the room/house for the holidays? Whenever they can, it helps them feel normal.

What are their goals for the relationship? Just be happy together

Who is most likely to sleep till noon? Tim

Who plays the most pranks? Both

[elloras]

And as for the details, I like to leave that to my man, Scott.

For the character asks (if you don't mind) I was wondering if you could do one for Tonks or Charlie Weasley, whichever you'd prefer.

@wondurr-one​ Ahhhhhh you ask such good characters I almost couldn’t choose

Charlie Weasley

(fancast Richard Madden)

NOTP if he just “found a nice girl and settled down” would be rubbish. i don’t want him to find anyone to destroy his ace pride. but i am okay if he wants a best friend to dragon chum with. 

BROTP Bill + Charlie need a LOT more time in fics and canon and films. I just can’t even imagine what they used to get up to when Bill was the nerd and Charlie was the jock. 

OTP Charlie and his dragonet. I have this headcanon that because of the roaring success of Pygmy Puffs, George and Charlie work on something special to breed Pygmy dragonets that are the length of your forearm or smaller and Charlie becomes the leading expert of the more docile breeds of dragons as he travels the globe learning about dragons forever

Second Choice Pairing i am surprisingly okay with an aro/ace Charlie but as “Charlie’s friends were a cheerful lot” I like to imagine that Charlie is actually the shy sweetheart in a rowdy crowd ready to party and smash tables together and get into trouble so he’s not looking for a “nice girl” to settle down with. He needs a partner as unconventional as him like an old quidditch bro or a non binary to just become the dragon kids and have cool leather jackets

Fluffing Pairing I am so down for Tonks and Charlie? Like as friends I mean. I like to think of her at school with him and just them starting to get really giggly and into sneaking out for firewhiskey and stargazing in the frosty january under a million blankets and bill would pretend to catch them and then laugh and pat down and slowly their little group grew into a bunch of troubled troublemakers and artists and laughing pranksters and quiet kids into a weekly star watch party and these are the people that are 100% down to break international law and barriers to fly an illegal dragon away in a packing crate tenuously strapped to broomsticks picking up said dragon from the tower they loved best

Angsty Pairing Charlie being a wreck after his little brother’s death (and feeling he has no claim to be upset, he was always away, even if was the one the twins came to when…it hurt too much to think) and he meets an old ex-Slytherin quidditch captain who he particularly hated and Charlie is really spoiling for a fight so he picks one. And it is rough and horrid and bloody in the back alley and it gets confused into kisses and scratches and panting on the cobblestones feeling sick to his stomach at what he had done

Favorite Polyship I think Charlie is a great character for a polyship because as an ace kid, he’s really just there for the romance and friendship of it. I kind of think of him as always having a room at George’s place that he comes and goes from in apparating and travelling. He loves Angelina - she was on the team when he graduated, and it’s easy and restful like old times because he already loves his brother (doesn’t need to be in ANY part of incest ew thanks) but he’s also a little more than an uncle to their kids; a type of third parent guardian who sometimes when he watches the rubble crushing fred, he ends up on the floor of his brother’s room, holding his hand as it dangles off the bed.

Weirdest Pairing like the actual pairings I see where Charlie is like…sexually into dragons??? like…okay but why how what why what how why uh yeah what why

Send me a character ask! 

[dangermousie]

So, here is my list of telenovelas to watch

099 Central (Argentina) - hot cops fight a super psycho who is hero’s brother and make out. I am in it for the leads who I will watch in anything (they are the OTP in Padre Coraje.)

Alborada (Mexico) - like one of those old-school romance novels, our hero is a hunted nobleman whose paths cross with a mistreated wife.  Wife’s evil in-laws blackmail him into pretending to be her husband on pain of death (go with it - just think of Kathleen Woodiwiss) because they need heroine to have a kid. That happens and they meet years later. I am here for fine lawn shirts, swords, tight pants, and make-outs in the field of flowers.

Alma Pirata (Argentina) - three friends, love stories, revenge blah blah. Watching because recommended. 

Amazonia (Brazil) - it’s period, that’s all I need to know. 

Amor del Bueno (Peru) - have never seen a Peruvian one. Also politician’s wife and hardcore journalist falling for each other when they are kidnapped? Yes PLS.

Amor Gitano (Mexico) - noble woman in love with a gypsy in the Middle Ages? OMG where do I sign up! 

Caminho dos Indios (Brazil) - a telenovela set in India? Frankly I am checking it out because It sounds so strange!

Chocolate com Pimento (Brazil) - 1920s, flappers, chocolate factory, poor heroine makes good.

Corazon Salvaje (Mexico) - 1993 version. Pirate x nun. That’s all that needs to be said.

Corazon Valiente (US) - two lady bffs meet as adults. There are cops and stuff and it’s on Netflix so I am gonna give it a try.

El Elegido (Argentina) - adultery! masons! blah blah blah!!! It came recommended and I like the actors but frankly I know little about it.

El Zorro, la espada y la rosa - Zorro!!!! Mmmmmm!!!!

Gabriela (Brazil) - small 1920s town is shaken up by the arrival of Gabriela, a sultry and mesmerizing migrant and Mundinho Falcao, a young reformer. Surprisingly they do not hook up but have parallel stories and OTPs. Hooray. Based on one of my very favorite novels though only very very loosely.

La Dona (Mexico) - lady and her daughter fight for the same man. Okaaaaaay. But looks pretty!

La Esclava Isaura (Brazil) - yup, am gonna rewatch the 70s novela of my childhood about boring but virtuous white slave girl who finds happiness despite her evil master. The main heroine is blah but ahhhh the side stories! Ah, Henrique my love! 

La Gata (Mexico) - poor girl, rich boy. Oh, my girlcrush Maite Perroni, ILY!

La Mujer en el Espejo (Colombia) - ugly woman becomes pretty during the day thanks to a magic mirror (and back to ugly at night) but what happens when it breaks? This sound awesome!

La Passione (Brazil) - lady learns her husband gave away her kid. My fave plot trope, sorry!

La Tempestad (Mexico) - I am here for William Levy. The end. I am sure there is some sort of a plot but does it really matter?

La Traicion (Colombia) - two hot identical twins in the 1890s fall for the heroine. Pity that one is evil and will stop at nothing to separate her from her true love, the other twin. (Lady, why be picky? Either one looks like Mario Cimarro.) This sounds so bonkers I simply must. 

La Usurpadora (Mexico) - if I discovered I had an identical twin, I’d find better uses for that knowledge than to ask her to swap with me so she could put up with my husband, who is awesome, sexy and looks like Fernando Colunga. But what do I know?

Made in Cartagena (Colombia) - lady is ordered to seek revenge on awesome guy. Geeee, I wonder what will happen? Mainly to see Miguel de Miguel play a sweetheart as he was so repulsive and terrifying in La Esclava Blanca, I cannot imagine it.

Mas Sabe el Diablo (US) - the mob plus the male lead looks a lot like Aidan Turner and I am a shallow woman!

Milagros aka Mas Alla del Horizonte (Argentina) - set in 19th century, this has it all - evil families, star-crossed lovers (he is a white boy brought up by Indians! She is a well-off white lady!) etc etc etc! 

Montecristo (Argentina) - modern day count of monte cristo. Yum.

Morena Clara (Venezuela) - 1980s clothes and mullets (yes, one of the characters has a mullet!) terrify me but I am a sucker for star-crossed lovers and want to see Luis Jose Santander as an earnest romance hero after watching him steal the show as a charming scoundrel in Pasion. P.S. I am aware Morena Clara was made in 1994. Somehow it still has 80s hairdos and fashions.

O Clone (Brazil) - a woman is torn between her lover and his clone. Ummmmm. Solutions that come to mind are not suitable to family television.

Padre Coraje (Argentina) - yes, I am still watching this beast of a show! It’s almost 200 eps and I am on 135. Noble bandit pretends to be a priest to solve a crime, hooks up with the victim’s daughter, there are psychos and supernatural conspiracies.  if you ever wanted to see a reincarnation of Jesus nibble on a woman's neck and caress her legs, this is for you.   

Pasion (Mexico) - am on ep 70 of 95 now. Pirates, damsels, evil lords, costumes, wigs, multiple OTPs oh my. It’s not deep or realistic in any way, but sometimes I have a yet for a picaresque fluffy romance novel of a show.

Pasion de Gavilanes (Colombia) - it feels like I’ve been watching this for a decade because this is pretty and shippy but so slow I can literally hear grass grow as I watch.

Pasion y Poder (Mexico) - poor abused oppressed rich wife wants to leave her monster of a husband and reunite with her first love. Ooops, everyone in the audience apparently is bored to death by first love and evil husband steals the show. The fun is watching the poor writers trying to madly rewrite the story halfway through and turn supposedly evil husband into a misunderstood woobie. Eh, who am I kidding, I am here for Fenrando Colunga, 50 but still fiiine, going from villain to hero on the sheer force of his charisma.

Ramona (Mexico) - noble Indians and noble Spanish fight evil Americans in the 1840s. I am here for Eduardo Palomo in a loin cloth and also because I’ve never seen Kate del Castillo in anything. Secondary dude has an unfortunate 70s mustache but alas we can’t all be perfect.

Reina de Corazones (US) - Our heroine wakes up not remembering her marriage to a hot hot guy. I wish we all had such problems.

Resistire aka Siempre Julia (Argentina) - talk about married to the mob! Poor heroine unknowingly marries an evil mobster with a plan to take over the world. Luckily, one of his assistants (a) also wants out of the life (b) is madly in love with her. Witness protection and make outs ensue!

Rosario Tijeras (Colombia) - a mob hit woman gets involved with two different dudes and nothing good happens to anyone. I’d prefer the Mexican version but can’t find it anywhere with subs and this is on Netflix. 

Senora Acero (Mexico) - bring it on, cartel queen in love with a federal agent! On Netflix.

Sortilegio (Mexico) William Levy and his biceps star as an amnesiac who is told a lady is his wife but little does he know she was forced by his evil brother to pretend to be so to steal his cash. We all should have such luck!

Terra Esperanza aka Esperanca (Brazil) - true lovers are separated by a trip to Brazil where our “hero” (I use the term loosely) acquires another wife. Ooops, his first love is not dead and somehow sets to win her hapless, spineless but very hot man back. Good luck to you, lady!

Terra Nostra (Brazil) - lovers are separated by a trip to Brazil where our hero acquires another wife. I am noticing a theme here. Luckily, heroine also acquired a husband so reciprocal angst and misery for everyone.

Yago, Pasion Morena (Argentina) - villager x city lady. Here purely because of my Facundo Arana megacrush.

Dramas: The GREAT, The GOOD, and the GAWD AWFUL (Updated)

This is from my own watch list, and is SOLELY my opinion. With over 60 129 dramas/films finished, I have a lot of opinions. Additions are noted by a space. 

Here it is:

THE GREAT

Coffee Prince: The greatest OTP of my lifetime. ;-)

Flower Boy Next Door: Full of heart and PSH’s best work.

Heart to Heart: Strange second-half, but this has an amazing OTP

It’s Okay, That’s Love: Beautifully dramatic and fully focused on relationships

Kill Me, Heal Me: Amazing premise, a bit melodramatic and zany but stayed interesting until the final episode

My Name Is Kim Sam Soon: Maybe my favorite female protagonist to date. She crass, strong, and amazing.

Oh My Ghost: Thrilling premise with two amazing female leads

Splash Splash Love: A quick three episode drama and some of Kim Seul Gi’s best work.

A Werewolf Boy (K-Movie): Tragic and heartbreaking, but each tear is deserved. Moody and atmospheric in the best way.

Beautiful Life: Hits you like a punch in the gut, but Kimura Takuya is amazing in this beautifully melodramatic romance.

Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu: They try to make marriage into business relationship and hilarity ensues. A true delight.

Our Times (Taiwanese Movie): Bittersweet and the only school-based drama or film I’ve seen that left me satisfied.

Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo: I lied, this campus romance was everything. Funny, sweet, uplifting with an OTP I will love for a LONG time.

GAWD AWFUL

Absolute Boyfriend: A fairly ridiculous premise with the worst ending I have ever seen.

Flower Boy Ramen Shop: There is nothing romantic about yelling at each other for 16 episodes.

Full House Take 2 (The entire FULL HOUSE series really): Again, they are just mean to each other. Why is this enjoyable?

Hyde Jekyll Me: I will never understand the conflict. He’s the SAME man, how can one stupid female protagonist be so conflicted? You don’t deserve Hyun Bin’s love!!

I Order You: A female lead so awful I wanted to claw my eyes out. It’s cute at first but it’s like when a cat plays with you and then out of nowhere it just scratches your face with its deadly paw. Not enjoyable.

Just You: Simple story, but comically horrible third wheel intervention.

Madame Antoine: Deep breath. These two are horrible people and deserve to be alone.

Mary Stayed Out All Night: MESSY writing --- you’d think that having Jang Geun Suk and Kim Jae Wook fighting over you would be a thing of beauty, but homegirl made the whole triangle yawn worthy 

Playful Kiss: Perhaps my first K-drama hate. I don’t mind my male lead a little grumpy, but emotionally abusive is not cute.

Rooftop Prince: I already don’t like Han Ji Min, but the ending of this made me want to vomit in disgust

Twenty Again/Second Time Twenty Year Old: You know that drama that was a romantic comedy where the leads had no chemistry? No I’m not talking about Heirs! It’s this one!

Secret Garden: Felt like the longest drama I had ever seen, and not in a good way. The premise is a body swap but the body swap is all but forgotten by the mid-point. This writer and I were never able to get along.

To The Beautiful You: Get a female lead that can actually attempt to look and act like a girl. Heck, you need to talk to the Coffee Prince people.

Dal Ja’s Spring: This show just lost steam. I kept waiting to like Dal Ja but by the last four episodes I just wondered if my TV was broken.

High Society: When your second lead couple are more interesting and charming than your lead one, you have a problem.

Heirs: Ha ha. No.

After School: Lucky or Not: SUPER cheezy -- not as much AWFUL as just not...good.

Attic Cat: Again, just a couple that yells at each other for the whole series. Kim Rae Won is petulant, and the female lead is just forgettable.

Choco Bank: Short drama which a paper thin plot. I know the dude’s from EXO, but his beauty can not save this.

Click to Your Heart: Interesting premise -- a choose your own adventure style drama, but I liked NONE of the options.

Crazy Little Thing Called Love (Thai Movie): The only thing I believe about this movie is that it’s crazy that I thought it would be good.

Poison Berry in my Brain (J-Movie): Not at ALL what I thought it would be. Starts off quirky, ends up really troubling.

The Miracle: I don’t like heavy women as the butt of all the jokes. She was only ever able to experience love when she was in the body of a skinny person, and I don’t like that message.

When a Snail Falls in Love: The trailers for this made it seem like it was a romantic comedy with action in it....not true. It’s more of a violent action thriller with an occasionally cute scene tacked on.

An Asexual Defense on Bughead: Why you can still love even though you’re asexual.

You might ask, this is just a show on the CV network why do you even need to shitpost, bruh? Well, I'm tired of misrepresentation and mislabels. That's why. I fight for love, equality, and no judgment.

Disclaimer and truth: I’m not an ace and I’m not an aro. Currently, I am also single (have been for all my life, shocking yes) so I can’t say what being in a romantic relationship is like. I’m a prude – and believe it or not Internet: I’m a virgin.

So, I’m not claiming I know what it is. So, am I unqualified? Well, perhaps. But, that said – I know what love is. What really love is supposed to mean. I’ve dealt with it all my life and seen the type of love that is questioned intently by this show. Jason and Polly’s love until death they parted: infatuated with each other when it first started as a sexual drive to be near each other 24/7. Betty’s parent's destructive love where high school sweethearts turned sour when Hal forced Alice to take an abortion (and canon universe, that would've been a brother fun fact). Veronica’s parents lack love: Hermione just needs the money from Hiram and since he's in jail she thinks she can play innocent adultery. Jughead’s mom leaving because even though she loves FP she can’t be around him when he’s sinking into alcoholism - so she takes Jellybean too.

And, the most talked/debated/questioned/discussed relationship of all time: Bughead…because of questions on sexuality and representation in media.

I think, if possible, it would be interesting if Riverdale explores what Lili means by “Betty makes Jughead happy,” “Betty and Jughead make each other happy,” etc.. Not necessarily a sexual drive or fascination to have a level of intimacy that is body-to-body controlled. But, a nurturing and loving need to be beside each other in order to feel wholesome. It would be interesting to define love – Cole quickly corrected a commenter saying Jughead “makes love” instead of “fucks.” What does that entail for the series, hmm? No one is talking about that too.

Whilst making an asexual defense for Jughead, I want to personally extend this to females: particularly an asexual defense for Betty. Now before I get trashed, note that this asexualism should apply to girls (since I think girls can also be asexual).

Also, making Betty asexual as well (as a narrative) would be an interesting struggle and a cool propulsion for a Dark Betty plot. Before getting into that, let’s address this elephant in the room. Lili, in an interview a while ago, did say in an OTP battle: rather than Bughead vs. Barchie – she thought a Betty doesn’t need a man. Other interviews, she is asked whether she ships Beronica - she said that let fans ship, she is just the actress. And to be real frank: I think if Betty was in a better state, Lili probably is right! A lot of fans for this show are shipping and hurting each other through shipping poor little Betty. Rather than argue if Betty’s heterosexual, bisexual, homosexual, bi-curious, etc. – if she’s even sexualized or not. I’d like to acknowledge how amazing the cast and writers of Riverdale shaped Betty: that she is just a teenager girl who just wants to be loved for who she is and to equally give love back to that person. Because she doesn’t want to be lonely anymore.

Love wins. Sound familiar? Ask this: does an aromantic (who is defined not to experience romance or love or chemical driven feelings of longing/nurturing, etc.) not understand this? Is it fair to ask that question? Not attacking anyone at all, just getting one to think about others.

Also, I don’t know how true this is. But, I’ll go ahead and pose this as a questioning statement to follow up the earlier question: I’d think that just because you’re asexual doesn’t mean you don’t understand or can’t define sexual attraction to someone. “Passion” is just not driven by all the “chemicals that would lead the body to feel good.” And crassly stated: “whatever you’re type of kink is, sex-wise and sexing-time wise.”

That said I think this might be a great driving force for a Dark Betty if the writers take her that direction. Rather than she’s got a seductress and a curiosity to quell, she’s got a lot of pent of rage in her from how many times people have categorized her/MISLABELED her. And even more, hurt people she really loves. It appears to me that being an asexual Betty too would have very interesting validations of why she knows how to play the overtly sexualized character…just as a punisher and a justice seeker in the absolute wrong way. I guess what I’m trying to say is instead of playing the “LUST” card, she would be a “WRATH” card. I know, controversial! While one might be quick to say that Jughead is “WRATH” I think he’s more of a “PRIDE” card – since he didn’t want to openly admit who he was and his upbringing. This leaves Archie to “LUST” as his deadliest sin.

Anyways playing said cards, but NOT in your favor, the outcome would have “dire consequences” like what Jughead alluded to in episode 3. Maybe in the future seasons of this show, Betty could get into so much trouble with her recklessness that she earns herself juvi-time like what Jughead went through, perhaps filed harassments, or law-enforced investigations. That or she could lead her to decisions that she needs to speak with therapists – her ADD and Adderall usage, etc.

It seems that inner fire – so much that she forgets that she has that character inside her is emboldened ONLY because she it’s done to rage her opinionated lessons about how detrimental and harmful sex/fucking can become on her enemy. Rather than romance/love as a driving force, she’s willing to hurt anyone who hurts the ones she loves. This could be a great point for when she thought Chuck – who hurt/ridiculed/dominated/screwed with many women Betty cares about (i.e. Ethel and Veronica) because he felt powerful and it felt bodily good – was actually Jason who wrote Polly’s name in that disgusting book like he glorified that she was another notch in his bed).

Somehow her being around Jughead gives her clarity. She can think easier. Him being present makes her feel wanted and needed, but not in any way that’s not beautiful. This makes sense with her narrative on why she doesn’t push Jughead away. She could’ve said something in episode 4 when he just kissed her. Instead, she wants a relationship with him – she wants to be with him, and to walk with him. I think that’s the gist of what some Bughead shippers see. More than this though, it’s that both of them are weak and young. They don’t know anything else but Riverdale, and both connect because they love the charm of old Riverdale and because they know what love really is supposed to be. I’m a Bughead shipper (yes) and also not a Bughead shipper (in the way that most people are shipping that causes this type of stir-up in the Riverdale fandom). I'd define myself as: “I want these two cinnamon rolls to finally be happy and if they make each other happy because they love each other it’s good in the hood if not oh well writers decision of representation goodnight kthxbaiiii”

Representation is necessary. I think with how much attention human equality (the particular intricacies of members towards the LGBTQ community, aces and aros, etc.) are being refined and taken care of, it is important to clearly illustrate terms to what many toss precariously. Riverdale is doing this. With strong avocation to human rights and policies – politics themselves, Cole is right: people should keep asking and re-asking questions of whether Jughead is asexual or aromantic. Using fresh labels to define a person is tricky because no one wants to be mislabeled and misrepresented. Arguably, I think it’s better to be underrepresented than told you’re not who you are.

I think Chip Zdarsky’s illustration of Riverdale in the modern world is interesting and it sheds light on the difference of what love is and what the media is shaping love into. In other words, asking this question finally will bring light into what many people are throwing around and having constant fights about – defining the labels: that asexualism and aromanticism are different. That bicuriousity and bisexualism is actually different. And so forth.

Outside of just Jughead, and asexual defense for Betty (too) would also be beautiful if the narrative is written this way. Betty is struggling with holding herself together in midst of her family dramas between the Blossoms – Cheryl who constantly still bullies her all because of her grudge against Polly, a falling out romance with the boy she loved since he confessed he wanted to marry her in 2nd grade but openly admits he doesn’t love her at all, her parents literally splitting up. She needs to know where she is all the time, not who she is physically and bodily wanting.

Jughead, who is struggling to define his love. What is it, and why did he choose Betty? Is it just cause she's there? I mean, his family is gone. Nothing is set in stone, but everyone at least can acknowledge he’s scared of physical presence, physical contact, and physical commitment. He chooses to stay aloof and outsider-like. His way of relating to the world is sardonic. But, he wants to love and nurturing. He wants someone to think of family and love like Betty does. But, he’s scared of coming up short or not having enough to invest into. And that’s probably why people think he’ll push back a bit again to shield himself. Commitments being that many people HAVE let him down so much that he doesn’t want that tie to intimacy. Let their companionship (whatever it is) be that heals their heartbreak, rather than just physical attraction.

Not to say that there’s anything wrong with being aromantic but sexual, asexual and aromantic, or anything. Again labels and mislabels are important for young people to know so they won’t be afraid to define who they are. No judgments, just absolute awareness for these causes of not offending or hurting someone. But that’s just my two cents.

Maybe this is me overthinking and blissfully hoping. Betty has and always will be my favorite Riverdalian – ever since I grew up reading the comics (when I was a 7 year old who probably shouldn’t have been reading them). Jughead’s been interesting, and the dynamic between the two of them is something I’ve observed over all the digests, rewrites, comic diversions, etc. Protect my smalls from drowning and falling apart bitches.

Everyone is so invested in Jughead’s sexuality – what Cole thinks about it, what Lili thinks about it, what Roberto thinks about it, what Chip thinks about it: whether or not any of them support one side over the other. All responded in similar manners about this: that they’re torn. Additionally, I’ll ask a few more important ones on this subject. Is Jughead truly capable of romantic love? Does he truly romantically love Betty? Or is Betty a stand-in for his own personal weaknesses and demons? What about Betty? Does Betty love or could she love Jughead romantically? Or is she attracted to the idea of him because of the “word that begins with a letter B” be it just a physical need/support? I think this is what Cole and Lili want to explore when they were excited their characters connected.

So, don’t worry kids...words containing the prefix “a-“ still confuses a lot of adults in the English language to this day. Asexual, aromantic, amoral, asepsis (all means not what they are) and then you got words like ablaze, astride, etc. (which means that they are starting). That’s why we’ve got Teachers for America.

So, go on you citizen amongst 7 billion in this world. You can still love in your own way. Peace.
