+ forced on people in prison + forced as part of plea deals and parole + forced as part of parental custody + forced as part of legally mandated addiction treatment + forced on minors + sometimes required for access to homeless shelters, so on and so forth.
it's a key pillar of my moral code that it is right and good to lie to people with power over you. cops, bosses, parents, therapists--just lie to 'em to get what you want! if they didn't want you to do that they shouldn't have existed within a society that gives them the exclusive right to unilaterally destroy your life !

Why do so many psychiatrists love to gaslight. Okay, Hannibal Lecture.
If I had a nickel for every time a psychiatrist straight up told me lies I would have too fucking many and that's a problem.
#like first a psychiatrist tells me my seizures r psychological BECAUSE of my history of Forbidden Disorder and anxiety#and then they get worse and its clearly epilepsy and im on meds now and my condition was neglected bc a misdiagnosis based on stigma#and then now im like hey so i am still struggling with Forbiden Dissociative Disorder can i get some resources or a mf therapist rec#and this psych straight up tells me DID isn't a diagnosis anymore (I FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF THIS CLAIM BTW)#AND tells me my amnesia is bc of seizures.... LIKE I LIVE IN MY BODY AND U HAVE LITERALLY ONLY SPOKEN TO ME VIA PHONE#IDK I THINK I KNOW MYSELF A LITTLE MORE THAN YOU DO FUCKING JEFF#and i know the mf difference between switching and and HAVING A SEIZURE like???#those r very different things. like ik theres different kinds of seizures but for ME theres just no comparing theyre 2 different things😭#there is a clear difference between me collapsing and becoming unresponsive on the floor like a fish outta water#and me telling people to call me a different name and having completely separate identities that others notice. and i cant remember#and like ive dealt with it all long enough that I'm aware and can communicate w my alters n stuff and i have to to function#and for YEARS since highschool its been like. i talk to professionals and theyre like hm yea u basically would meet all requirements#however u might as well not get diagnosed bc no one wants to deal w that.#LIKE IVE LITERALLY BEEN TOLD THAT MULTIPLE TIMES ALMOST EXACT WORDS#and i hate how i know fake claiming being a public thing has rlly fucked w peoples perception of did n stuff#idk im so fuckin pissed man. reverting to my will graham era i fucking guess

COMPOSITE CHART
Accuracy dependent on ENTIRE chart.
Gemini MC.
Indicates a couple that is a target of gossip. Good or bad.
Moon in 2nd.
Indicates a secure relationship. The two understand each other and provide for each other. Unless other prominent places indicate otherwise, jealously likely isn’t an issue.
Venus in 2nd.
Unless afflicted, this can show a couple that is making money together. They help each other in matters of career & finance. This is a good placement for business partnerships. In a romantic connection, they are very secure and likely sensual. The couple can indulge together. They wish to give each other exactly what the other desires - materialistically, emotionally and physically.
Ascendant in Pisces:
The couple can be very comfortable with each other. Understanding, kind and gentle with each other. Seeing the best in each other. Dreaming of a future together. The negative manifestation of this is romanticizing the image of each other and refusing to see the real version. This couple may tend to hide away their troubles to maintain the connection. This could result in a big blowup.
Sun in 6th.
Positive is this couple helps each other. They are very supportive of one another. The negative is if one person is giving more than the other. Over time one may feel they are being used. They may not always want to be playing “nurse/therapist/teacher role” in the relationship. The stress may make one feel they are obligated to stay & help this person.
However, if both are providing equally for one another, the connection will stay very strong. The couple will naturally begin to see each other as often as possible. Moving in fast (especially if there is a busy 4th house) is possible.
Moon in 11th.
The two may share similar beliefs and goals. Your way of thinking is similar. Regardless of what the connection is you two make good friends. You can be your true self around this person. You two may have shared mutual friends.
Lilith conjunct MC
You may create a reputation for being sexual & scandalous. Together, you may become outsiders in a way. Potentially, this could be toxic. However, that depends on the entire chart.
Examples:
A couple that goes out to parties a lot. They may drink & have a small argument one time in public. It will create a permanent reputation about them being toxic. People will assume the worst.
Public displays of affection could be a bit much (aka annoying couple making out & groping each other in line).
Pluto in 11th.
Gradually, big transformation is likely to happen throughout the relationship. Pluto is very slow moving, you may not realize the changes that are occurring until much later. In 11th, your long terms goals, social awareness, causes you believe in could change. The way you present yourself online could change as well. Friend groups could change. Increase or decrease.
Ex: When my friend broke up with her boyfriend, the mutual friend group decreased. It was highschool so petty shit. People gossiping & disrespectful “jokes” posted on their finstas. Getting mad at those who liked the “joke” post.
Venus in 5th.
Common interests & hobbies. Similar creative expression. For ex: you could both be into photography. Or both into gaming.
This a fun placement to have. There is likely a lot of joy and good memories together. You guys simply have so much together. This can make a couple very romantic & affectionate. You guys could find yourself doing “corny/cheesy” things that the old you thought you’d hate.
Synastry
❣️ Having someone else’s planets in your 7th isn’t always an indicator of a marriage partner. Especially when in the natal chart, you have planets in your first house. This is because of the opposition it creates.
Ex: An Aqua sun & rising friend I knew had a Leo sun partner. This created an opposition with their suns. Two egos clashing. Fought often, she says he was a “literal narcissist” and very controlling. He once texted her she was “a self obsessed bitch”.
❣️ Another note, if you have your 7th House ruler in first like her, be cautious of friends, partners & even business relationships with people who want to control and/or use you.

if you ever get in a fight hes definitely pullin up to fight with you, no matter how wrong you are
"cats are dogs" "yea they're basically animals so they're the same!"
will ask to copy homework EVERY. SINGLE TIME.
he claims that he trusts you like you grades vould be going downhill and he would still borrow urs
is the type of person to accidentally copy the name too
such a virgin everyone says he's a major f-boy but in reality he has never felt another person touch him romantically
he gives you goofy grins whenever he does sth stupid (and when he does it's mostly bc he wants to see you laugh)
calls you the most ridiculous pet names "sugar bby pookie bear"
also likes referring to you as candies like he called you liquorice one time???

WIBTA For Snitching On My Brother?
tl;dr at the end, the submissions a bit long. sorry if this sounds like stupid teen drama, but i needed outside opinions. (tw for mentions of attempted suicide)
so for a bit of context here, me (14nb) and my brother (14m) both have Parental RestrictionsTM on our phones. In my opinion they are way more severe than they need to be. i am not allowed to have any social media at all, my mother barely tolerates discord. I cannot text anyone who is not my direct sibling or parent from 9pm at night to noon the next day and i cant use any "nonessential" apps during that time frame too. my brother has the same restrictions on his phone, but he has safari removed because my mother said he was playing "random internet games". however, he has found ways around this and ways around the app restrictions. i know how he does it. i really dont have any intention of telling our mother, its none of my business and i honestly dont care that much.
I recently moved to a new school. My brother and i were homeschooled prior to this during covid. And it was fine. We went to a homeschool co-op twice a week. A year ago we were both enrolled in Local Community College as dual enrollment students. A semester into that i was Not Vibing Well and ended up having a breakdown and getting a therapist. I would talk to her directly about this but i havent been able to see her in weeks due to scheduling conflicts. The workload seemed too much to me, there was no longer a distinction between School and Home. i felt like i was constantly on the clock, and i barely saw my friends. In addition to other factors at my co-op, I got very lonely. At that time the limits on my phone were 9pm-3pm (it was later edited to 9am to noon) . I cant remember exactly what happened, but i asked my mother to at least change the communication limits so that i could talk to my friends during the day. She said no, stating that I Do Not Need to Communicate With Friends During The School Day. i do not have a real “school day” i am at home basically 5/7 days of the week. And normal kids see their friends every day at school. The argument got dropped then.
Fast forward half a year, i felt increasingly lonely, out of place, bothersome, etc, at my co-op and have decided to try going to Local Public Highschool. This meant leaving my best friend (14f)  whom i love dearly (for the purposes of this post i will call her Z). Z is one of my favorite people in the whole world, we got platonically married, I lovingly refer to her as “my wife”, and i would genuinely die for her. She got a phone over the summer which means we have a better way to communicate, replacing discord as the primary communication system. Also at that time one of my best online friends fucked up their discord account somehow and the whole online group moved to text. there's about four of them? J, Other J, B, and L (ages vary from 12-16). I believe only B is directly relevant to this story but the others are worth mentioning. Additional context (tw for mentions of suicide from now on), all of those four are varyingly suicidal. B has attempted before, at least twice I believe. out of the group i am probably the most mentally stable.
School starts! I am already feeling a bit lonely due to leaving Z but we stay positive. I wake up for school at like 530 and check my phone at like 6:45. Woohoo a message from B! It was sent at 4 am. This is concerning. There is a glitch that i can use in order to view texts for between half a second and four seconds, it depends, and i use it. B’s message reads “Bye”. theres no fucking reason that they would be texting me goodbye at 4am in the morning unless they were going to kill themselves. I cannot properly view or respond to that text until noon, so eight hours. I wait to know if my friend is ok for eight hours, and at noon i check my phone again. In that time i’ve received messages from the groupchat. J, Other J, and L all received “bye” texts from B at around the same time period. After a few messages, we know B is ok, i dmed them privately and they responded both in ims and the gc. So they are ok. But i had to wait for eight hours to know that. Later that day i asked my mom if she had considered my proposal (i asked her a day or two before if she would at least turn off communication limits because it is also rather embarrassing to be honest to have to tell other people that oh i cant respond to your message right now, sorry my mom has limits on my phone :D. In addition i get anxious when i send a message that im nervous abt and it doesnt get responded to for hours so i hate leaving messages for longer than two hours). Once again, she said no. it goes against her Views As A Parent for me to have “unrestricted access” to my phone. She offered to add only Z to the list of people i can contact during the limits. This is better than nothing but Z texts more in the groupchat than she does in private messages so it wouldn’t work that well. We argued, it didnt work out, i got pissed off and we both went to bed. i very strongly feel that for like my mental health i need to be able to communicate with my friends better than i can at the moment. And i dont want to wake up to a message from a friend, have it be the last one they ever send, and not be able to respond for hours. 
Heres where the part where i could be an asshole comes in. (so sorry that that was really long i didnt know what parts would be needed as context and what were not so i just typed everything i think might be relevant). This isnt something that i am very strongly considering, as i truly dont want to fuck up my relationship with my brother and i love him a lot. I just want opinions on whether it would like be going too far i guess. I am considering offering a trade. I tell my mother how my brother has found ways around his limits, and she turns off the communication limits on my phone. WIBTA if i did that?
TL;DR: would i be the asshole if i snitched on how my brother got around some restrictions in exchange for me being able to communicate with my friends?
What are these acronyms?

My ultimate fic recs
Made a poll and a lot of people said they would want this sooo here we are! These are the best fics I’ve read (: The og post
Top 3
1- To Be Alone With You By Shay_Fae
In the summer of their sixth year, Remus Lupin tried to kill himself.
2- Something Just Like This By shadow_prince
a fake dating modern AU where Sirius has been telling Mrs. Potter he's dating someone for 9 months and she demands his "boyfriend" comes on their family vacation. Queue: shenanigans between wolfstar and jily as they lie their asses off.
3- Text Talk By merlywhirls
Sirius is in boarding school, Remus is in hospital, and they don't know each other until Sirius texts the wrong number.
Other recs bellow break (in no order)
Wading in waist high water By colgatebluemintygel
Remus is a PhD student and hobbyist baker who finds himself adrift following his father’s death. On a whim, he enters the Great British Bake Off and is swept up in a flurry of curdled custard, shrunken souffle, and under-proved dough. Remus expects to be challenged and to embarrass himself on public television. What he doesn’t account for are the friendships he develops with the other contestants and the deep connection he forms with his teenage crush, Sirius Black: charming ex-boy band member and Bake Off host
Beneath a big blue sky by @eyra
The four-by-four heaves its way down long, twisting lanes, little more than dirt tracks scuffed into the surrounding fields and hemmed in by serpentine walls of flat, grey stone. They truly are in the middle of nowhere: the countryside rushes past, all rolling green hills and vast, endless skies, and it's odious. Sirius wants to murder James with his bare hands. Sirius and James accidentally find themselves on a Yorkshire farm during lambing season. The farmer’s son thinks that’s a bit annoying, actually.
A brief history of dragons by @eyra
It's lovely up here; all meadows dotted with wildflowers, wind-beaten tracks criss-crossing this way and that through the fields, weaving inland to the pinewoods. The sun's hot on his back as he passes ramshackle stone walls, long since crumbled to piles of ancient rubble and scree, and then the path winds downwards, still following the line of the coast until Sirius finds himself outside an old white cottage, tucked away behind the hill with a rose garden that faces out to the sea. Sirius moves to Cornwall for the summer and meets a rude, beautiful boy who is writing a book that may or may not be about dragons
Let’s play pretend by MsAlexWP
After James and Lily died, Sirius Black's therapist told him not to date for a year. And that's just as well. He's got a 13-month-old baby now and quite enough to deal with, thanks. But the nosy neighbors in his building keep trying to set him up and won't take no for an answer. Enter Remus Lupin, another single dad who pretends to be Sirius's boyfriend, just to get the old lady brigade off his back and nothing more. Nothing more at all.
Forever in a state of mind by orphan_account
Deaf Dance Choreographer, Remus Lupin, has a simple life. Working, taking care of his son, and running his YouTube sign channel. When he unwittingly becomes involved with Deaf Pride Activist, Fleamont Potter, he doesn't realise how much his life will change. Especially after he meets YouTube star and makeup artist, Sirius Black.
Sugar rush by Stricklymarauders
James, Sirius, Peter, and Dorcas have been best friends for years and are starting their senior year of highschool. To Sirius' dismay he doesn't have any friends in his history class, but after eventually showing up, he finds he sits next to a tall curly hair boy who takes his breath away, Remus Lupin. He decided right then and there that he must make this boy fall in love with him and recruits James to be his wingman, until James is distracted by Remus' best friend with a personality as fiery has her hair, Lily Evans.
Dating Remus lupin by Children_of_the_Shadow
Remus Lupin is a mystery to the whole school; the boy who's quiet, aloof, and cold. He also happens to be queer, which is enough to gain Sirius's interest. What Sirius never realised that dating Remus Lupin wasn't quite as easy as it looked.
Blends by rvltn909
Words got in the way sometimes, but Remus got the sense Sirius knew what he was trying to say. Another coffee shop au.
Camp Casanova by Farquad
All lonely 11 years old Remus Lupin wants is a friend. But when he arrives at Slughorn's summer camp for teenage boys his world turns upside down since he finds himself sharing a cabin with three other boys; James Potter, Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black. As the years pass by Remus finds himself birthing friendships, fighting bullies, but above all battling his own feelings which soon gets out of control. He struggles to keep his biggest secret, and he wonders how he could've fallen so deeply in love.
Turn on my charm by Bethanlovescoffee
Sirius Black is a YouTube phenomenon. A YouTube phenomenon who develops a crush on his video editor.

Headcanons for some side characters:
Jessica
• Gyaru style
• Was 30 when Lasko found her.
• Human born, and, like Lasko, her family reacted poorly to her powers developing.
• Studied at DAMN and became a therapist after graduation.
• Saw herself in Lasko and practically raised him (in a mother sense or older sister sense), and tried to provide him the help she never got.
Brian
• Has two daughters, one now a teenager and one a toddler.
• At the time of his audio, his wife was pregnant with his second.
• When he gets the chance to call them, his teen daughter reads him a list of things that have happened, trying to keep it short due to time constraints.
• He always feels guilty that his work has kept him from being there for his kids big milestones (award ceremonies, birthdays, etc).
Eric
• This man is TIRED.
• He helps with making public statements for the department, but everyone knows him as "the PowerPoint guy", and he hates it.
• Whenever someone is brought in for learning about magic, he's the one that drags them into a room and puts the video on, to which he leaves the room immediately because he does not want to hear or see himself in those.
• Him and Sweetheart (sometimes Crux) would hangout in the break room to tall shit (nothing that would get them fired, but still shit talk none the less).
Arden & Christian
• Both are strong enough to carry the other on their shoulder.
• Christian met Amanda in highschool through her and Arden being friends (sister's best friend type shit). Arden teased the heck out of him for it.
• When they were teenagers, they would sneak away at family gatherings (with Kelsey) and chill in a random empty room.
• Christian was the favorite child, despite their parents constantly denying having favorites.

𝓜𝓸𝓷𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓻 𝔁 𝓗𝓾𝓶𝓪𝓷 (𝓑𝓮𝓱𝓮𝓶𝓸𝓽𝓱 𝔁 𝓢𝓮𝓻𝓪)
Tumblr media
800words/part1/intro
In certain myths, there appears a creature who brings about the worst in people. The creature haunts people to madness, turning them all to drunkards, addicts, gamblers, or insomniacs. To their dying breaths, the people would cry, "just leave me alone!" No story shows any person finding a way to get rid of them or any ways to get along with them. Everyone suffers to death.
See, Sera has one such shadow haunting her right now. That, is why she did all this research to try and find something.
The only truth she found is the part where all the 'victims' yell at the shadows to leave them alone (she's been doing that too). But, the only reason she's shooing it is because it keeps telling her, "you should sleep soon. You have work in the morning," and, "if you eat the same thing 7 days in a row, you won't get proper nutrients. Buy some grapes, you like grapes," and even, "tell her you don't need extra shifts. You need proper rest."
See? It is annoying! Sera can understand why someone would drink or smoke upon seeing hallucinations, though she doesn't think gambling or addictions are related to seeing hearing shadows move.
It doesn't even look that scary! It appears like a shadow (hence the name). It's shaped like a cloth ghost wearing a plague doctor mask. It isn't 2D but it does not have a physical body; it's like a hologram! You can see it and hear it, but you cannot touch it. It would be wrong to say you cannot *feel * it. Sera felt it before she saw it.
She had been drowsy at work after working overtime three days in a row. She'd been on the brink of passing out dozing off when a large warm blanket like thing cascaded from the sky and draped itself around her body.
It was like someone had zapped all her exhaustion out of her body; she felt like a toddler awaking from their slumber. She was so rejuvenated that she almost asked her manager for another shift when 'someone pulled the blanket off of her' and all her exhaustion returned. That was when she first heard it speak, "I can take just as much as I can give. Do not force my hand."
Back then, Sera assumed she had started hallucinating from the lack of sleep and slept for eight hours in one night (instead of her usual two to four hours throughout the day). And, yeah, she felt like a toddler again. The shadow had spoken to her again, "do this everyday and you will lessen your neck cramps and headaches."
It was standing at the foot of her head, looming on her sleeping body. Sera had freaked (naturally) and rolled off her bed. But, she felt no pain as the 'blanket' had caught her before she hit the floor, "your bedside table is the wrong size. It would have hit your head."
It went on to explain itself later. It said it came to help Sera, "humans cannot help but have habits. Schedules and routines make you who you are. But, you have too many bad ones. I, Behemoth, am here to intervene."
Sera didn't look convinced. She was sure she needed a shrink appointment. But, the therapist or whoever would probably make Sera fix her life telling her that 'the only way to get rid of it is to fix your life'.
Bleugh. Yeah, no. Sera was perfectly okay with her life as it was. She did not want to go through such a hassle. But, she did want to get rid of her hallucinations; that is why, she hit the library and read a bunch (for the first time since highschool).
"You enjoy reading. Do this more often," Sera didn't know she was smiling until she felt her smile fall at Behemoth's comment. Dang it! It knows me too well!
That's when she decided to ask it, "how do I get rid of you?"
"I suggest not to talk aloud in public. It makes for a bad impression," she swung at it with a book in reply when it continued, "I will disappear when you are better."
Ah. So Sera's would-be therapist had would-have-been right. There is only one way to get rid of him. She sighed in defeat and muttered to it herself, "it's easier said than done! And, I don't even know where to start."
Behemoth's warmth embraced her just like the first time two weeks ago, uplifting her spirits just a bit, "you can take as long as you need. I will assist the whole way."
Sera wanted to ask it why it would do that for her or why it came to her and not to someone more in need. But she held back from giving in to her bad habit, making it the first step of her long journey of her life with Behemoth.

I was homeschooled and interacted with adults (parent's friends, ect) all the time. I never saw people my own age cuz they were in school and I was not. My social skills were fucked up to no end to the point that I had to have therapy from a therapist who works with developmental disabilities, except I don't have developmental disabilities, I was just homeschooled.
Also, the average parent with a highschool/college education is not qualified to teach a kid academically beyond maybe 3rd or 4th grade, and isn't qualified to be their own child's teacher at all. My dad cannot help me with math or music specifically. I love the man and he's a math teacher, but he cannot teach me. I've never had a peer (I went to normal school til 3rd grade) who's parents could effectively teach them, It's a block for a lot of families.
Tumblr media
I'm sorry that was your experience, but you're really an exception. It sounds like your parents didn't take advantage of the multiple resources available to homeschooling families to help with those exact issues.
Not everyone is homeschooled well. But that's not different in public school. There are plenty of public schooled children who aren't proficient in either socialization or academic subjects. There's an entire school in Baltimore where the entire graduating class, including honor roll students, can't do math and one graduate, who was an honor student, went on to join the military and a remedial math class was created just for that student in order for her to be able to stay in the military. For every homeschooled kid who doesn't end up being well socialized or proficient in an academic subject, I can point out a public schooled kid with the same problem.
If you look at the average results between homeschooled and public schooled kids, which there are a lot of because it's been measured a lot, homeschooled kids, on average, outperform public schooled kids both in socialization and academic skills. That doesn't mean every individual homeschooled child is going to be better educated and socialized than every public schooled child but on average they will be. You're the exception, not the rule.
"Also, the average parent with a highschool/college education is not qualified to teach a kid academically beyond maybe 3rd or 4th grade, and isn't qualified to be their own child's teacher at all."
And this statement is just completely and utterly false. No truth to it whatsoever. I don't know what you're basing your idea of "qualified" on but I can already tell it's nonsense. Parents are very qualified to teach their children academic subjects at any grade and if they are unable to teach a subject, there are theses things called co-ops, where homeschooled families get together and will teach each other's children in the subjects they are knowledgable in.
There are plenty of resources out there to help parents teach every single subject and the observed and measured results of homeschooling prove your assertion that parents aren't qualified to teach their children completely wrong.
Your problems aren't because you were homeschooled. They are because you weren't homeschooled well and your experience doesn't cancel out the vast majority of cases that show homeschooling is very effective.

Congrats on finishing Passing Peonies! As you could probably tell from my tags, I'm completely enthralled with it!
I was wondering if you'd considered what Shigaraki would be doing post war? This isn't necessarily a request for the follower milestone (though I do plan on sending in a request or two after I've gathered my thoughts). I was just curious if you'd had any plans regarding him in that universe.
Thank you for asking! I do know what Shigaraki is doing in the Passing Peonies world but I didn't want to convolute the story with too many people to focus on. So glad that I get to talk about it!
Deku managed to defeat All for One and Shigaraki by doing what he does best - get through to Shigaraki and convince him of the power of Friendship. Without Deku's example, Shouto might not have been so successful with Touya.
Not everyone from the League of Villains wanted to change, because not all of them wanted to be heard and understood in the first place.
The Public demanded harsh punishments but Allmight, coupled with Deku "the world-saver" and his friends, demanded a change in the system. Touya, Toga, Shigaraki, Spinner, Kurogiri... They were taken in for physical and psychological therapy. But, and that was important... They were not allowed to meet each other at first. They could ask questions about each other if they wanted to, but people were afraid that it would pull them down and hinder their healing if they were confronted with people from their past.
That did not work as well as they thought they would. Kurogiri almost broke out of the hospital he was in because no one would tell him where Shigaraki was held and if he was still alive.
Toga's mental health improved significantly once she had regular contact with Touya and Spinner was moved to the same hospital as Kurogiri and Shigaraki in an attempt to benefit Shigaraki's recovery.
Touya is the first to actually enter the rehabilitation program of all the villains, because he has the biggest support system: his whole family, plus Hawks.
Toga is second, because she has Touya to rely on, as well as Ochako who never misses their weekly trips to get coffee or try on cute clothes.
Kurogiri could have been the first but he will not leave Shigaraki's side. Him, Spinner and Shigaraki are living in a remodeled three bedroom apartment in a hospital wing.
Spinner is retaking highschool classes and is thinking about working for a mechanic as soon as he's allowed to start rehabilitation - his therapist is still a bit concerned with his obsession with Stain.
Kurogiri has weekly cooking classes with Present Mic and Aizawa which are doing nothing for his memory but they have gotten close.
And finally, we have Shigaraki.
After two years in therapy - at the end of Passing Peonies - he's doing a lot better. He wears gloves all of the time even though he's wearing quirk cancelling anklets and there are days where Kurogiri has to hang blankets over all the mirrors because Shigaraki doesn't want to see himself but he's doing better.
Kurogiri has taught him how to cook and he's making a fantastic fried rice with egg on top whenever Deku comes over (about once a week). Allmight visits him daily - he's at the hospital anyway, so why not? - and some days they spend by reading books together or Shigaraki explaining Memes to Allmight who has to peer at his phone through reading glasses like the old man he is.
Maybe in a year or so he might be able to start the rehabilitation process himself but he's not thinking about that now. He's just trying to get better, one day after the other, and not think too much about the future ahead.

A little bit of a life update:
Way back in 2022, My senior Year of highschool happened, The Mario teaser trailer was released and I gained more Marieism and it's still going strong. But I know something bad was going to happen... Losing all my friends. Worse thing? I made a new friend who was into the same stuff as I was (Splatoon, Kirby, Super Mario, Sonic, TMNT, etc), and I didn't even know I was gonna graduate in 2023 until the school told every student about the graduation stuff. But then I fully panicked because I didn't want to lose my friends I made, what's worse is that I didn't get their social media accounts so I can talk to them (But unfortunately for the new friend I made, I didn't have Tumblr, but they did), and after I graduated, I was blind sighted about everything, I was sad about losing my friends, but I didn't have to be near students who bullied me for my autism and my interests. Many months goes by, and I celebrate the end of 2023 with praise...
Then January of 2024 brought a lot of shit that blocked my way and actually done damage to my mental health. The Chuggaconroy drama, One of my dogs passing away, and one thing that's been fogging up my mind is not having a job. I didn't attend college because that costs way too much. And also, I can lash out at people easily in public who try to piss me off or make me cry. And with the bullying I've been through throughout 8th grade through 12th grade for hating Fortnite: Battle Royale, It can easily happen if one of my bullies from Highschool finds in a place I wanna work at (I wanna work this gaming store in West Virginia I love). Also with everything that has been happening with current events, my mental health has been hitting the gutter, I'm suffering with Smile Depression because of the current events in the world, the looming threat of AI, and the biggest reason of all for my masking depression... is being lonely. Although I have my family (which I feel like I make things worse for them) are the only people I have and none of them have the same interests as me. Also we don't get along sometimes. And I wanna find some friends who has the same interests as me... And I did, with my followers and the people who like my stuff on Tumblr. Although we haven't introduced ourselves yet, You guys have made things in my life a little bit less sucky. I'm so glad you answered my questions, I'm so happy you like my incorrect quotes, my art (even though it's mid at best), you guys are friends to me. I am planning on going to my therapist this year to get my mental health really better.
💚Just to let you guys know, I'm really glad to have you guys as a friend and as followers.💚
Tumblr media
Thank you for reading this very long post and liking the stuff that I do, guys.
Now I gotta go to sleep, it's like 3:31 AM.

I AM AN AUTHOR!!!!
Hi??? I mean I need a post to pin on my page and i have decided to make this the post.
Hi, I am a fanfiction writer and I post on both Wattpad and AO3. My user is Lolyukimaxlol on both of them.
I write for these fandoms, in the order of less likely to write for to most likely to write for: Generation Loss, DSMP, EmpiresSMP, QSMP, Hermitcrat, Life series.
Most of my fanfictions will focus on ONE fandom (or Fandoms that are common to crossover, like Empires and the Life series,) BUT there will be SIDE characters of other fandoms if I deem necessary. If my character needs a therapist, I might add in Roier. Or if my character's in a public space, I might do references to Tallulah and Pomme. Or a coffeeshop (starbobby!)
I write STRICTLY Non-RPF stuff. Sexual content could be *implied* but not written (and even then it's only if it's plot relevent). Gore could appear, but that will be tagged for.
MY CURRENTS WORKS
Half's the dessert's rotten.
is a fanfiction that mainly focuses on Grian and Scar's relationship in some sort of art highschool. Although it is not the only one presented. There is some Cub x Mumbo and Tango x Scott x Jimmy. This story delves into their relationship and how mental illness infects them as an invidual and their relationships, and how they cope with it. I CANNOT promise you a good ending, but nothing is yet to be set in stone in my plans.
'Til The End Of The Earth (Guess We Found Out Where The Earth Ends)
This is a Fred/WA02 x Tubbo story in an apocalypse of zombies that has been ongoing for 6 years. This story is a QSMP-main story, although it contains characters from the DSMP and Scott Smajor. Tommy, Tubbo and Ranboo find an underground organization during the apocalypse and are too curious to let it be. They enter under-cover and make friends. But feelings of power could intervene, justice might be given, and some people might never be seen again...
Tomorrow we'll dig through the garbage.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/59272132/chapters/151158691
https://www.wattpad.com/1473351793-tomorrow-we%27ll-dig-through-the-garbage-zombiezood
This story delves into Martyn and Scott's lives after their rough break up. Though their relationship was not the prettiest, having past the line of abusive long ago. Now, they have to live through feelings of guilt and nostalgia as they learn to move and grow without the other, in a safe environment. This story is actually a passion project of mine. I love writing mental illness and fucked up characters and i love psychology, but I actually wanted to get on work on healing. To show that you do heal. it takes time. Take care of yourself<3
Help's a bit of a Buzzkill. - Done, waiting on sequel. Coming on the 5th of October.
This story is the first story in my series UADOAS (Scroll down for more info) inspired by Amethystfairy1. It explores Tubbo and Tommy's evolving friendship in the Under-City, a place that is not nice to it's resident. As they find ways to survive and try to.. Climb?! they make some unexpected meetings. I guess you could say it's about the friends they made along the way.
MY CURRENT SERIES
Ups And Downs Of A Society
This series is inspired by @amethystfairy1 'TTSBC' "Through The Sky-Blue Cracks" But involves different dynamics and fandoms (Current fandoms planned are Life Series, QSMP, DSMP and Empires.) It currently has one work "Help's a bit of a Buzzkill" (Scroll up for more info) but there is so much planned such as the Clockers, Misclick duo, QSMP eggs, Flower... husbands... ranchers...?? and MORE! I am very excited for this project and am very grateful to have gotten the OK from Amethyst to make this silly universe a reality.
Celestial Beings Hierarchy
This series is a Life Series main series, looking at the Winner's arena after the life games, dubbed Ouranios. After they win, the Winner's consciousness leave their Player body and goes to the "Watcher's Trashcan" Where they put everything they don't like. Such as nature, clouds, skies, The Sun (Grian); The Stars (Scott); The Moon (Pearl); Mars (Martyn); Earth (Scar). AKA the winners. They have different ways to go on about things and opinions but try their best to stay civil (well.. as much civil as Pearl can get herself to be). But after an incident where the Watchers noticed Grian Watching, and tormenting him for a day, and with the strong feeling that a new Death Game might be upcoming so a new Winner, and the stress of- Why is Ouranios rotting?! Well.. We'll just have to fuck around and find out. (The series does include non-famous ships that will be revealed shortly. There is currently 2 works in the series. One introducing it with a 5+1 times, and one delving in Scar and Pearl's relationship/p. The "not famous" ship will be revealed in the next work, "Daffodils on a pretty string" (scroll down for more) coming out soon. hopefully.)
PUBLIC IN-THE-WORK PROJECTS.
Soulmates AU
This story is not published but will be after "Help's a bit of a Buzzkill." (Scroll up for more info) is done. It is about Scott x Tango but there is a weird tension between Scott and Pearl... This is as much as is public info about it and does not yet have a title. Coming soon!
ZC!Scar AU
This is a project I am very excited about. It could very well be a one-standing project but could as well become a series. It does have a title but I deem it temporary. Not much is public about this AU. (Can you take a guess on what ZC means? It is not ZombieCleo. I promise.)
Common Life
This is a project that will be released whenever the first episode of the new Life Series will be released. It is not a choice. I am forcing myself to do it. That's all the public info I have for y'all.
My ChatFic.
Not much is revealed either except that when it is out it will be posted daily. 'Cause contrary to other works Chatfics are considerably shorter. And that Scott is a bitch in it. I said it (in a tumblr post, actually,) that "Scott is a toxic ex mf" (my words) "and that he should be decripted as much. coming from an autistic mf addicted with him" Then said that this is a spoiler for my ChatFic. Take it as you will (i love scott but he gets to be a manipulative bitch as a treat from time to time.
Neighbours Be Neighbours
Nothing is revealed except that it's Flower husbands. I love flower husbands. and unlike my chatfic scott isnt a toxic mf. i love scott smajor. and flower husbands.
Daffodils on a pretty string.
I almost forgot this one even though i mentioned it earlier on. This story is part of the series Celestial Beings Hierarchy (Scroll up for more!) and dives into the evolving relationship between a SECRET SHIP! It is not famous; Do not expect flower husbands or scarian. You will be disappointed-- Any ship you can think of (Shiny duo, snowbugs, grumbo etc) THATS NOT IT. anyway. I'm very excited for this one because… This ship hasn't gotten a work in.. 3 months. and even then it's a chatfic. I hope you guys learn to appreciate it as much as I do and revive its tag<3 not like it was ever alive in the first place… sighs.
Honorable mention:
-The purge (a book that i'll work on. one day)
-Empires x QSMP AU (a book that i'll work on. one day)
-Those other Aus sitting in my drafts (ull probably never get worked on ever again)
And I believe that's it. Goodbye. I hope to post more here and become famous. please

About your tmnt au
How long has Casey been the O'Neil's foster kid? How old was he when he met the turtles?
Whats April's relationship like with the turtles individually? Like what do they bond over? Does she ever pull the '' I'm your older sister, so you have to"?
Besides hoodies / clothes that cover them completely, what are each of the turtles personal style like? Do any of them like to wear make-up? Do they have a specific species?
Sorry if these are repeated questions and I just didn't see them
ok so imma break this into bits:
Casey Bits of Lore:
he has stayed at the O’neil’s for about three years now, but Casey himself has been in the foster system for six years. Before the O’neil’s he had been in four other homes, he was a lil bit of a troubled kid.
he met the teetlz about a few months into his stay at the O’neils, and was surprised when seemingly everyone knew about them, but only when he started to be suspicious of who they actually were, was when april told him they were mutants. he was chill with that, as long as they didn’t try to hurt his big sis (april) which they would never do.
April Relations:
in summary they all think of her as a big sister but there is more than meets the eye.
Raph:
will baby him the most bc she knows that it flusters him and it makes him happy
she’ll play family therapist for him when he needs to let his emotions out
Don:
since splinter doesn’t let them go to school she teaches him everything she’s learning
he likes to talk to her about things, and she’ll just listen, only interrupting him to ask questions.
Leo:
They like to make spotify playlists together and judge each others taste in music
he likes to talk gossip with her since she goes to a public highschool filled with drama
Mike:
she brings him cooking/art themed books and magazines to read
sometimes he’ll sneak into her school to hangout with her
Fashion Sense:
Raph - likes to layer his clothes, and if be can’t he’ll wear clothes that show the least amount skin. his preferred style is frumphy and grunge
Don - like is to wear comfy clothes, but usually graphic t-shirts with memes or pictures on them. style of choice is what i have dubbed ‘gamer clothes’.
Leo - wears anything a 2000’s frat boy would wear. idk that’s it.
Mike - depends on the day but he’ll usually wear anything with cats or smart ass text on it.
for the specific species go here!!

Someone Like You
Hello everyone! This has been a little bit overdue heh but I'm finally ready to start posting for @tsspromptmonth ! The first few chapters are still not the parts I wrote but the wonderful parts @prince-rowan-of-the-forest wrote! So give them credit for those! I'll be posting a chapter every week, if anyone would like me to tag them to get notified feel free to reach out in the asks or dms^^
Chapter one | next
Summary: after you get into an accident that leaves you with chronic pain and partial blindness and causes you to get bullied and laughed at at school and the only friend you ever had ditches you for the pupolar friend group, you kinda don't really feel like connecting with anyone anymore... even if you do have a crush on them. So, of course, now you're forced to work with them on a project for English class... what could possibly go wrong?
Pairings: pre romantic Roceit, platonic LAMP
Warnings: bullying, public humiliation, unsympathetic Janus (kinda? He's being mean a lot but it's kinda understandable), misunderstandings, self degrading thoughts, chronic pain, partial blindness, trying to hide your disability, lying, low self esteem, unrequired love(for now), swearing. I think that's it but let me know if I missed anything.
Word count: 2,898
Growing up, Janus had always been different. He liked to hide in the shadows, he lied far more often than was necessary, to the point where the people who knew him knew to take most things he said to mean the opposite, when he wasn’t lying he was either too shy to speak or rude to anyone who bothered trying.
And of course, there was a massive scar across half of his face. Yeah, that was a pretty big one. He’d gotten it during the car accident that killed his mother when he was very young, since then he’d been blind in one eye and had bad vision in the other, his habit of lying had gotten even worse and he often felt terrible pains in his left limbs which the doctor had said may be chronic and probably wouldn’t go away any time soon and no matter how many physio sessions he attended or meds he took the pains never really seemed to leave him alone.
Whenever he went outside people always seemed to stare, odd looks seemed to follow him wherever he went, sympathy was the best he could hope for, pity was the most common, disgust he’d come to expect, hatred towards him just for existing was something he’d gotten used to over the years.
Now, ten years since the accident, he’d gotten used to everything that came from being different. The stares in the school hallways when he used his cane, the angry looks when he bumped into someone on the street, not realising that they were as close as they were, usually when they were on his blind side.
He got angry look after angry look from his teachers when he lied time and time again. The exasperated look his therapist always gave him when he’d come back every week only to report little progress as always.
Unfortunately, now that he was older, a junior in highschool, he was starting to realise there were a few more issues than just the looks and the lies. At the age of seventeen Janus started to notice things. He noticed the two seniors walking arm in arm down the hall. He accidentally walked in on two of his classmates doing the devil’s tango in the bathroom more than once (which had immediately made it onto his short list of reasons he wished he was fully blind, possibly deaf too). He noticed his classmates passing notes in the seats in front of him, the notes adorned with little hearts or smiley faces which made the receiver blush and turn away with a silent giggle.
The romance was everywhere now when it hadn’t been so prominent before, and like a lot of other kids his age, Janus was starting to want it too. The issue he faced was… well who would ever love him?
Of course it was easy to notice the beautiful girls and even more beautiful boys getting together, it was in plain sight, like everyone had suddenly decided to pair off. But he also noticed the kids who didn’t meet society's strict (and stupid, in Janus’ humble opinion) standards for beauty. The girl with acne, the boy who was slightly overweight, the trans girl in his class who hadn’t been able to transition quite yet, the girl who liked to have her hair short and clothes baggy just because. None of those people had been able to pair off, whether they wanted to or not, they sat alone at lunch and in class, they didn’t get invited to parties or get partners for dances.
Janus noticed all this because he was one of those people too. The popular kids would fling insults and slurs at him like he was a witch in a medieval stoning, they would point at him discreetly in the halls and laugh. They'd throw paper balls at the back of his head in class. He'd even been pummelled by a basketball once because kids really didn't know when to stop. He’d had his lunch smacked from his hands, he’d been shoved and pushed and kicked while he was down. Janus knew what it was like, and he knew his crowd.
Unfortunately, that didn’t mean his heart would obey him and stick to that crowd.
Because Janus found his eye wandering in class, he couldn’t help the way he was drawn in, like iron to a magnet, and he hated it. He despised the feeling so deeply, because it made him want. It made him want for something he was sure he could never hope to have.
Roman was somehow both a prep and a jock, a theatre kid who always seemed to be the centre of attention in whatever situation he found himself in. Roman was the prime example of the people who bullied him. If someone asked Janus to point out the kind of person who made fun of him in the corridors, he’d tell them ‘people like Roman’ because there he was, strutting down the middle of the corridor with his friends, wearing his custom varsity jacket (with a golden crown and his last name- Prince- printed on the back in gold). They would walk past and people would get out of the way, they would walk into a class and everyone would stare, but never in the same way they stared at him.
Roman might be the prime example of one of his bullies, but funnily enough Roman himself had never done anything to him. At least not in person. Janus had no way of knowing what was said behind his back (a lot was said behind his back) but he did know that Roman had never been the one to throw the basketball, Roman had never shoved him out of the way, he’d never tripped him or smacked his lunch to the floor. In fact, Roman had never interacted with him at all.
And yet for some reason, Janus’ heart longed for him, that glittery eyeshadow, those bright green eyes, his brown hair that seemed to shine red and gold in the light. But despite his own wants he knew it wouldn't happen, he wouldn't even attempt to lie to himself, there was no hope for him.
If anyone asked, which they never did, Janus would say he despised the other boy. Hated the way he leant back on his chair during English class without a care in the world. He would say he hated the way he could hear Roman's melodic laugh over the cacophony of the cafeteria. The way his eye was always drawn to the guy when he acted so perfectly in their drama class. Hated the way Roman’s hair shone shades of rust and gold and brown in the sun, hated the way his green eyes reminded him of a forest in the summer, hated the way he was able to speak loud and free like he’d never experienced a problem in his life.
Roman was so far out of his league they weren't even playing the same sport- or- whatever the hell that idiom was supposed to mean. Not only that but Roman was already taken, by the stupid emo kid who used to be his best friend, in fact.
Used to be his best friend, that is, until Virgil ditched him the moment he got a chance to be part of the cooler group. The moment he realised that Patton didn't mind his dark makeup and Roman found his dark mysterious aesthetic interesting he’d been gone. He had lost his best friend to the popular kids four years ago, it was only last year when the rumours that Roman and Virgil had started dating began to spread and it made Janus' chest ache with jealousy.
But Janus got on with things despite that. He tried not to glance at Virgil when he passed him in the halls, he tried not to stare at Roman during class and when he sat alone at lunch. He tried to keep himself as mysterious and elusive as he could- he didn't talk to anyone if he could help it and when he had to he spoke in backwards riddles and lies, safe to say no-one wanted to be paired with him for group projects.
And then came one horrible day. It had already been an awful day for him already. His scars were acting up, feeling like they were pulled tight and they itched- they itched so badly despite the lotions and oils he had to put on them every morning. On top of that he'd forgotten both his hat and his glasses when he'd ran out of the house late and he'd been tripped in the corridor twice, it was only his second lesson of the day.
Janus wanted nothing more than to sink through the floor as their teacher went on and on about something or another that he'd catch up on later because he could never focus when he was around other people even when he could actually see what was on the screen. That was until he heard those dreaded words.
"You'll be doing this homework project in pairs!" Their teacher announced and Janus could practically feel the eyes land on him before people glanced away to look at their friends, wondering who would be unlucky enough to end up with him this time.
"Can we choose our own partner?" A girl asked, her voice quiet and tentative as if she didn't want to give the teacher the idea she was hoping the answer would be yes.
The class held their breaths in wait for the answer. The teacher's simple yes or no answer would determine what happened next. If she said yes it would be a chaotic scramble to pair up, a race not to be the last person left without a partner. Because of course the last person to find a partner would end up with Janus.
"No," She said, and now all the class could do was hope, "I’ve bade a list of your partner assignments, please find your name on here and move to sit next to your partner,"
Janus just stayed where he was. He couldn't see the list without his glasses anyway and whoever was his partner would come and sit next to him eventually, probably after asking the teacher if they could switch. Meanwhile Janus looked down at the sheets in front of him, trying to work out though blurry vision and painful scars what the hell they had been learning about.
"Hey," Someone said, sitting down next to him, "You're Janus, right? I'm your partner,"
Janus just hummed, he didn't bother to look up, if he waited long enough maybe his partner would just give up and decide to get on with it by themself.
"Um- I don't think we've ever talked before, but I'm Roman, Prince," He said, Janus' head snapped up and he blinked rapidly, hoping his eyes would actually give him a clearer picture for omce. It really was Roman, honestly fuck him. The universe really seemed to hate him today, "Nice to meet you?"
"Oh won't this be fun," Janus said quietly, he didn't have the energy to muster his usual snippy tone, push him away, his brain said, there's no point in even trying, "Stuck with the class pretty-boy,"
"You will have a month to complete the project," The teacher announced, interrupting whatever taunt or jab Roman probably had prepared for him, a month, seriously? "And I expect you to work with your partner outside of class for this project, I will not be giving you time during classes after today to work on this,"
"Fantastic," Janus said, completely deadpan, he could already hear whispers from other pairs, people pitying Roman for getting stuck with him, but Roman didn't seem to notice in the slightest, he simply placed a notebook on the table and grabbed a pen- a sparkly red glitter gel pen with a plume of tinsel coming from the top- before turning to him again.
"So… any ideas of what we could do?" Roman asked, looking at him with a smile, it was sweet of him to try, Janus thought. He'd give up eventually, just like anyone else.
"I totally know exactly what we're supposed to be doing right now," Janus answered, hand subconsciously going to scratch at the spot by his ear where scar tissue met skin. He grimaced when a nail caught on the rough skin, causing a sharp yanking pain and suddenly he was once again reminded of why he wasn't supposed to scratch the scars. He picked up a pen and began to twirl it instead.
"We're making a project in the format of our choice based around Macbeth," Roman explained with a little bit of a laugh in his voice, Janus sighed, it sounded like a lot of work- and it meant that Janus would actually have to read the Shakespeare play, damn, "So… any ideas of what we could do? It doesn't seem very limited, as long as it's based on the play, so…"
"Nope, no ideas at all," Janus said, flicking his pen effortlessly over his fingers now. He did have an idea or two, but he really didn't feel like sharing, just thinking about Roman made him want to shrivel up and die, let alone being open towards the guy.
"Oh- well that's ok," Roman said with a smile that Janus was certain was forced, even though he couldn’t see, any smile directed at him was usually forced, "Hey- um- here, I'll give you my phone number so we can work out a time to work on this ok?"
"Right," Janus said, taking the paper Roman offered him a moment later. He only fumbled a little bit.
"So I thought it would be fun to do something creative! Like.. we could rewrite the script but modernised! Or- hm- what if we filmed it like a movie?"
"We have a month to do this and you expect us, two highschoolers with zero experience, one of whom can barely move at the best of times, to be able to make a whole movie?" Janus asked, staring at Roman in genuine shock. He shrugged.
"I don't see why not!" He huffed, and, ok, so this guy was delusional, Janus could… probably work with that? "Unless you don't like the idea of course, I believe we could do it,"
"Alright sure, say I was ok with this completely rational idea, where the hell would we film it? On what equipment?" Janus said, glaring at him.
"Well…" Roman said, thinking, "Me and you would obviously act- and don't say you can't act because I've seen you in drama, you do well when you're not paired with someone who's an asshole,"
Janus just stared at him, Roman actually knew he existed? Let alone remember him?
"I could find somewhere for us to film, we just need some kind of castle-ish place… maybe we could use a church? And as for filming… I think my dad might have a tripod? We can just use one of our phones or something…"
"I can't believe I'm actually agreeing to this," Janus sighed, "Can't we just make a stupid PowerPoint slide like normal people,"
"We could," Roman said, before smiling, "But that would be dreadfully boring, wouldn't it?"
Janus just hummed and tried to hide a smile. He looked at his notebook, going to begin writing down plans for their project before realising that oh yeah, his vision was still too blurry to see anything in enough detail to write legibly. He sighed and looked back over at Roman, who was still watching him.
"Is everything alright?" Roman asked, he must've noticed Janus pause.
"I'm fine," Janus said, on instinct at this point, closing his book, "We should plan in your notebook,"
"Oh, ok!" Roman said, shrugging as he turned to a new page in his notebook, flicking the lid off of his gel pen and writing, in big enough letters to make out "Macbeth The Movie" in swirling fancy cursive the middle of the page and underlining it. Underneath he wrote some more things, but Janus couldn't make them out.
"You do realise this play is five acts long, don't you?" Janus asked as Roman scribbled down some more stuff on the next page, before looking up.
"Yeah? So?" Roman asked.
"It has over two hours of runtime," Janus said slowly, hoping to guide Roman into realising what an immense and stupid project this would be.
"And?"
"Hollywood films of the same length can take years to film," Janus reasoned, talking slowly.
"We can do this, Janus!" Roman said firmly, determination in his voice, "No need to be so gloomy! We're not Hollywood, we don't need fancy costumes or scriptwriting or anything! It won't take as long as that!"
"Your endless optimism already astounds me…." Janus muttered, beginning to pack away his things. “I suppose we can try, at least.”
"Just text me," Roman said with a smile that, for some reason, seemed genuine, "We can meet up later to plan this out properly,"
Janus just nodded as the bell rang before standing up and heading for the door, silently praying that he wouldn't be tripped again, not here, not in front of his stupid stupid crush who for some reason was actually being nice to him

"i was so worried. it was killing me, not being able to reach out and touch you.
“but nobody knows us here! can we please go out?"
"is now a bad time to tell you i'm claustrophobic?"
"i never noticed your [insert feature/trait] before. it's cute."
“this might be a bad time to mention it, but i really like your cologne/perfume."
"god, here- just hold my hand."
"what if y- " "if you seriously propose that i sit on your lap, i will kill you.
"not that i'm not enjoying this, but could you move your hands?"
"we never speak of this again, do you hear?"
"never figured you for this much of a cuddler."
“i know you don't like being touched, but there's not that can be done about that now."
"your eyes are really pretty up close."
"you're not okay, you're shaking. what can i do? please, let me help you."
"I'm not sure what to do with all these feelings for you."
"you're blind- you're so blind! why would i even do half the things that i do for you for anybody if i wasn't head over heels for them!"
"you really can't tell, can you?" A says. "I'm embarrassed by my feelings for you. I'm so dumb for keeping them alive. i love you. there. you heard it. happy now?"
“i think we both need a therapist to figure out whatever the hell this is." A mumbles against B's lips.
"It's getting to my head."
"I like how obsessed with me you are," A smiles. "Makes me feel like the most important person in the whole world."
"Stop smiling. It does things to me l'd rather talk not about."
"You're definitely the only person I would do this for."
"How can you be this happy this early in the morning?"
"No, it's not annoying. I- It makes me happy to see you so happy."
"I'll do it, but only because you asked me to."
“You're so excited all the time... it's kind of adorable."
"I'm not grumpy. Not everyone can smile all the time. Except you."
"Why do you always manage to persuade me with your charms?"
"You smiled! I saw it, so no denying it."
"It was fun, right? Come on, you can just admit it."
"Will you dance with me? Please, pretty please!"
"I love that grumpy face of yours."
“Everyone should dance in the rain at least once in their lives."
"Oh, your smile is so beautiful! I would love to see it more often."
"Yeah, yeah. You're cute. Just stop smiling at me like that."
"I love you, but please stop whatever it is that you're doing."
“Listen, I enjoy this hug and all, but can you stop?"
"Please, stop smiling at me like that. I'm not sure what will happen if you keep doing that."
“You're the only one who gets to call me that, you know."
"I crave your affection, but I crave your silence even more- shut up."
"Is this your way of subtly hinting that you want to hold my hand because it's quite cute, but I'm not in the mood to hold your hand."
"You're talking too much, just shut up and hold me."
"Ew. Get away from me. No- not you. You stay."
“Hi, I've been subtle at hinting that I want your attention all day you haven't noticed once and now I'm pissed."
"Don't look so grumpy, it will be great!"
Soft non-dialogue prompts—
kissing your lover's knuckle before a dance
place a kiss on your lover's neck after taking off their necklace
Kissing your lover in the shower, water running on your face
your lover leans in for a kiss, but they just kiss you tenderly and pull back to see your reaction, only then to crash their lips against yours passionately
Alternatively, your lover places a small kiss on the corner of your mouth before their mouth lands on yours hungrily
kissing your lover in a completely dark room, their hands in yours. no light will get in, it's only us here
your lover kisses you goodbyes as usual, but when they start going towards the door, you run towards them and give them another deep kiss
your first passionate kiss with a person. you touch your lips absently, feeling the phantom your lover's lips
resting your head gently on their shoulder
them running their fingers through your hair
them gently tilting your chin
placing a soft kiss on their forehead
interlocking your fingers while holding hands
Embracing them from a sudden hug from behind and whispering in their ears, "i love you,"
Soft kisses on both cheeks and tip of the nose.
cupping your face in their hands and them telling you, "you. you are the one i love."
lying on the couch on top of eachother, one combing their fingers through the other's hair as they watch a movie
Waking their partner up for work when they notice their alarm didn't go off
Alternatively: allowing their partner to sleep in because they were overworked anyway and need the rest.
one waking up before the other, so they make up their side of the bed and can't help but tuck in their sleeping lover as they do so.
Giving the other a spoonful of the meal they're cooking to test it out, holding their hand under their chin so nothing falls.
One is sick, so the other heats up a blanket in the dryer to give it to them while they rest on the couch.
Listening to music together while they both take the day to clean around the house (maybe even getting a little distracted to dance instead)
Calmly reassuring the other it's okay when they drop a glass, gently checking their hands for any injury.
Wiping a bit of frosting (or smth else) off of their cheek while eating and taking it for themself
tracing your lover's features as they sleep
trying to count the freckles on your partner's cheeks when they're asleep
waking up with their legs over yours as they're stretched out and comfortable
taking pictures after finding your lover dozing peacefully while bundled up in blankets
feeling their fingers run through your hair while they lull you to sleep
Napping on the couch together
hearing them snore a little for the first time, maybe the snoring is small, quiet and you can't help but giggle since it's kind of cute, or maybe it's quite loud and you realize you plan to spend the rest of your life with this
seeing that they're finding a hard time finding a comfortable position so you pull them into your arms
Being annoyed because it's extremely hot out and they insist that they cuddle that night
Laughing at their messy hair in the morning
Angst dialogue prompts—
"im suprised, hurt and confused. you need me so badly at your side but you cannot figure out what you feel for me? hilarious."
"You want me. but you don't want us.”
"We're so different. I wouldn't want to pull you down."
"i tear my heart out to you and you're just throwing it away. wow." “i didnt..."
"no please, all you do is push me away, [name]. I'm done. Whatever this is, it's done."
"I'm sorry, i dont feel the same... way." "look me in the eye and tell that, please. I'..."
you have to talk to someone, eventually, it doesn't have to be me, but. you need to. "
“I'm not leaving until you tell me what's going on. "
“You may like to pretend, but i don't. something is wrong and you're hiding it from me. "
“You can't even say that and look me in the eyes. you're clearly lying. just tell me the truth. "
“Everyone else might be buying it, but i don't. what's wrong? "
“You can talk to me, you know. whatever you have to say, i'm not gonna judge you or do anything. i just want to listen. "
“You can't run away from this forever. "
“I don't know if you think you're being strong or protecting me, but i don't need you to keep painting on smiles when you're clearly upset. "
“Why don't you trust me enough to let me in? "
“You think if you run around taking care of everyone else, no one will notice you're falling apart.”
“You keep acting like you're looking for an excuse to leave. "
“Why do you keep lying to me like i don't know ever time you try it? ".
“I don't know why you thought i wasn't going to notice. but i see right through you. "
“Why are you acting like this?"
“You fucked it up. "
“What the hell is wrong with you?”
"we both don't want to do this, i know. but you have to understand that we need this."
"Everything is temporary, this was merely one of those things."
“I'm not going to cry, it isn't worth crying."
"And then he left."
“You hurt me and I still trusted you."
"I deserve more than this."
"I'm not a lot of people's favourite person."
"I really think it's easier for people when I'm not around."
"I know, but you didn't have to use her like that!"
“I never thought l'd be the one to hurt you."
"you're always leaving me"
"I miss them"

I swear something nobody really talks about is exactly how much dysmorphia you get when you’re physically disabled, especially when it’s a visible disability.
I have a specific eye condition, and I feel super attacked and disgusted whenever I search the term up on Tumblr or Youtube to learn more about it and get news updates, because the tag is flooded with med students and others who meme on what the condition visually appears as. I also get a lot of comments about it in public, have been called retarded, and have faced constant whispered remarks in highschool when I was attending. This has gotten worse recently, as I’ve also developed a permanent crossed eye as a result of the condition progressing.
You know, that thing abled folks just looove using as a caricature or shorthand for brain damage (which I also very likely have thanks to the condition) or stupidity!
I dunno, I just think maybe we shouldn’t fuckin’ judge others on visual traits that aren’t within their control? Or just things that aren’t within their control in general? And when you see a therapist they just go ‘it’s important to have a healthy relationship with your body <3 ‘
Like wow yes I was aware of that, how ground-breaking, if only OTHERS would treat me and my disability with that same respect
