hii i have a request for the arcane characters! could you do if possible that the reader is genuinely listening to the saddest songs for the vibes and the characters are so confused as to why anyone would voluntarily listen to such sad music, i think that’d be so funny, totally okay if not, thank youuu 💗
Cute idea
Tumblr media
Jinx
Jinx barges into the room, her usual chaotic energy paused as the mournful lyrics of a heartbreak song fill the air. She tilts her head, squinting at you sprawled on the couch with your eyes closed.
“Wait, wait, this is what you’re listening to? Like… on purpose?” She snatches the speaker, holding it like it’s cursed. “Do you wanna cry or something? ’Cause I can make that happen without this boring mess.”
You shrug. “It’s for the vibes.”
Jinx stares at you, incredulous. “Vibes? This is ‘my goldfish just died’ music! You’re weird.” She cranks up the volume, grinning manically. “Let’s make it sadder!”
Vi
Vi leans on the doorframe, arms crossed, listening to the weeping violins and heart-wrenching lyrics. “Are you okay?” she asks, tone half-joking but with real concern.
“Yeah, why?” you reply, completely unbothered.
“Because this sounds like something you’d play after losing a street brawl and your dignity.”
“It’s relaxing.”
Vi snorts. “Relaxing? Sounds like a breakdown waiting to happen. Come on, let’s put on something fun.” She starts scrolling through your playlist.
Sevika
Sevika stomps into the room, her metal arm clanking as she grabs a cigarette. The melancholic melody of a piano catches her off guard, and she glares at your speaker.
“What’s this crap?” she demands.
“My playlist,” you reply calmly.
“Your playlist? What, are you trying to ruin my mood?” She sighs, rubbing her temples. “Who even listens to this kind of depressing junk for fun?”
“It’s soothing.”
Sevika raises an eyebrow. “You’re insane. You know that, right?”
Silco
Silco pauses mid-step when he hears the soft, sorrowful music echoing through the room. He watches you intently, his single eye narrowing.
“You willingly subject yourself to this… misery?”
“It’s not misery. It’s peaceful.”
He exhales slowly, pinching the bridge of his nose. “I fail to see how wallowing in despair can be considered peaceful. Is this some new form of self-punishment?”
“No, it’s just the vibe.”
Silco shakes his head, muttering, “Unbelievable.”
Vander
Vander is wiping down the bar when he hears the somber tones drifting from the corner where you’re seated. He frowns, leaning over the counter.
“Everything alright, kid?”
“Yeah, why?”
“’Cause that music sounds like someone just broke your heart, and I know that didn’t happen in my bar.”
You laugh softly. “It’s just nice to listen to.”
He shakes his head with a chuckle. “You young ones and your strange tastes. Back in my day, we’d drown our sorrows with ale, not songs.”
Ekko
Ekko skids into the room on his board, only to come to a screeching halt when he hears the slow, mournful tune. He stares at you like you’ve lost your mind.
“What is this?”
“My playlist,” you answer.
“You mean your ‘everything-is-awful-and-I-wanna-cry’ playlist?” He sits beside you, shaking his head. “You’re seriously choosing to be sad? Life’s hard enough without this depressing stuff, you know?”
You shrug. “It’s a vibe.”
Ekko sighs dramatically. “Man, I don’t get you.”
Jayce
Jayce steps into the room, pausing mid-sentence when the heart-wrenching lyrics reach his ears. He stares at you in disbelief.
“This is… intentional?”
“Yep.”
He blinks. “Why would anyone choose to listen to something so… miserable?”
“It’s calming.”
“Calming? It’s like a breakup and a rainy day had a baby!” Jayce rubs the back of his neck awkwardly. “You sure you’re okay? We can talk if you need to…”
Viktor
Viktor glances up from his work, the haunting melody pulling his attention. He adjusts his glasses, staring at you with a mix of curiosity and concern.
“This… music, it is very melancholic. Are you feeling alright?”
“Yeah, I’m good.”
“But it is so… sad,” he says, frowning. “It does not bother you?”
“Nope, it’s relaxing.”
Viktor mutters under his breath in Zaunite, shaking his head. “Strange. Very strange.”
Caitlyn
Caitlyn enters the room, her brow furrowing as she hears the sorrowful tones playing softly. She tilts her head at you, concern evident.
“Are you alright? That music is… quite somber.”
“Yeah, I’m fine. It’s just for the vibe.”
She raises an eyebrow. “The vibe? It sounds like the soundtrack to a tragedy.”
“Exactly.”
Caitlyn sighs, crossing her arms. “I’ll never understand why people subject themselves to sadness voluntarily.”

⋆。°✩♬ ♪ My Melody ⁞ M. Yoongi
Tumblr media
𝄞₊ ⊹ Summary: “A piano or guitar couldn’t explain how much I love you...”
𝄞₊ ⊹ Pairing: Established relationship; Yoongi x Deaf! Reader 
𝄞₊ ⊹ Rating: Pg - 14 
𝄞₊ ⊹ Genre: Little angst, fluff and romance 
𝄞₊ ⊹ Playlist: If Not For You - Maneskin 
Tumblr media
Ivory keys that can tell a story and steel strings that complete it. That’s how Y/N described her relationship with Yoongi. A sweet and slow song. An easy song to dance to even to those that can’t dance. Two different lives that on paper, doesn’t make sense to be together but in their music, nothing else mattered. Yoongi came into her as loud as the echoes in an empty hall.
She finished writing her song when the door opened. She slowly looked up and her eyes met dark brown eyes that held kindness in them. She looked around the room and then back at her sheet music. She was writing away when she heard a guitar playing a sweet melody. She dropped her pen and turned towards the song, it was as if it was calling for her. She slowly walked towards him and continued to listen. 
“I like your playing.” 
Yoongi stopped mid-note and looked up to see her curious eyes. He glanced down at his guitar and let out a small cough, “Thanks...I heard you playing. I thought this would go well with it.”
Y/N turned around and grabbed her sheet music in excitement. She pulled up a chair to sit next to him with an excited smile, “You think so?”
He couldn’t help but smile at her excitement, “Want to try it?”
“I would love to...”
When she found out that he was famous, a whole new world was born. She didn’t care who he was. To the world he was Suga but to her...to her, he was Min Yoongi. The soft man who built her the nightstand when she was in need of one and the man who was with her from the very beginning. 
“Yoongi, I told you I was fine.”
He crossed his arms and closed the studio door with a frown. He turned towards her and sighed, “I don’t think so. You can’t hear when Hoseok is calling for you. I’m worried.”
Y/N looked away and frowned, “I have a check-up in the morning...you can come and tell them.” 
“Y/N, you-”
“I can’t ask them...I can’t.” 
Yoongi nodded his head and sat next to her. He placed his hand on her knee and she looked at him with a sad look, “I’ll get my shoulder looked at too...would that make you feel better?” 
She let out a small laugh and leaned into him. Her head on “his good shoulder” (something he called it), “We’re both messed up.” 
“Yeah that asshole hit us both-”
“Yoongi....” 
He kissed the top of her head and rubbed her knee, “I know...I know.” 
“Mrs. L/N, you're losing your hearing.” 
Y/N’s eyes widened at this and turned towards Yoongi, “What?” 
Yoongi frowned at this, “Babe, you’re losing your hearing.” 
Y/N’s mouth dropped and turned towards the doctor, “How?”
“When you hit your head from the car accident. I’m estimating that in a year, you’ll be deaf.” 
That’s when her life was restarted. She slowly couldn’t hear the melodies that Yoongi made in his studio or him rapping away with pure passion. She could hear small sounds but not the full sounds. It was heartbreaking for her in the beginning. The piano that Yoongi gifted her collected dust as she covered it with a white sheet. It wasn’t until Yoongi helped her play. 
It was their sixth anniversary and Yoongi had an idea. Y/N entered the room to see him with a guitar and she raised her eyebrow. She shook her head and sat in front of him with a frown. She signed to him as he watched with knowing eyes, “I can’t hear.” 
He gave her a small smile and nodded his head, “I know but...I bought this speaker so you can feel the vibrations.” 
She tilted her head at the special set up behind him and back at him, “An electric piano?”
Yoongi nodded his head in excitement, “I had the guy make sure that it was loud enough for you to feel the vibration.” 
A small tear escaped her eye and she watched him finish signing the last word. Her heart felt whole and she couldn’t stop herself from crying. She jumped into his arms and he sat there with a shocked look for a second but then he brought her closer. This was the moment she knew Yoongi was the one for her. True love like this was hard to find. This is what she wanted when she was a little girl. 
She stood in front of him in her white gown and at this moment, all she saw was him. Yoongi looked her up and down with pure love in his eyes. She was dressed in delicate lace and he couldn’t take his eyes off of her. He leaned down and kissed her forehead making the crowd laugh. He turned towards them and shrugged his shoulders, “I couldn’t help myself.” 
Yoongi took a deep breath and started signing his vows to her as she watched with tears ready to escape, “There’ll be no summer. There'll be no spring, if not for this love of mine. If not for you, I wouldn’t sing anymore. My melody on days that feel so dark. All those crowds and all the music would just fade out if you were gone. You took me out of my hell and you gave me heaven. Y/N, a piano or guitar couldn’t explain how much I love you but I hope my actions do. I can’t wait to be your husband and I want to experience everything with you. I love you so much, my melody.”

listening ears 
tasm!peter x fem!reader 
summary: in which peter is terrible at keeping secrets. and socks. 
warnings: idiots to friends to lovers, no angst just pining, arguments, fluff, ahhhh
a/n: heres the link to the playlist. for a real time experience, listen. (this makes it sound like an amusement park which i think is funny)
word count: 10k
Tumblr media
the first time you meet him, you're listening to sad music. 
it's unclear which song--being that it's late enough that they've begun to blur together, instrumental shifting to piano and soft sullen voices and heartbeats you can't hear but feel--but it rings in your ears as he walks by. 
as spider-man is suddenly in front of you, suddenly right in front of your bench, flashing blue and red and ego and playing with some weird white string between his fingers. 
you're also fairly certain that he's cursing. 
so, quietly, you hit pause on your phone, taking out an earbud. you watch him, hoping that he's already noticed your presence. 
hoping that maybe he'll leave and there will be no questioning--from either of you--about what you're doing out this late on a night like this. 
the snow on your head has melted, turning your hair several different forms of wet. 
and when spider-man has not looked up, or any other place he might be mugged, you, graciously, clear your throat. 
alerting him of your presence and beginning an attempt to beg him to leave. 
spider-man, unsurprisingly, jumps back. 
his white eyes are wide, but that might just be the costume. 
you smile and wave. 
"wha--" he looks around, behind himself, like you might be waving at someone else. "when did you get there?" he asks. 
his voice is quieter than you've heard it before. less animated. maybe a bit rough, or sore. 
you tilt your head, lifting a brow. "about an hour ago." 
spider-man stares blankly at you. "no." 
you contemplate laughing, or maybe tripping him with your leg as he peers closer at you, but ultimately hum. "okay." you drawl, "maybe i didn't." 
your smile is soft. your voice is abundantly sweet. 
you do not doubt that if spider-man wanted to, he could make both of you disappear in an instant. 
not that you're afraid, of course. you've seen the news. and experienced an average day in new york. 
spider-man tries again to pull his hands apart. fails. 
"sticky?" you ask him, swinging your legs. 
you think--but really just know--that spider-man glares at you. 
and then, with the subtleness of a child, he leans up again, straightening his back. clears his throat like he's got a lot to say. "what are you doing out so late?" 
his voice might be even deeper now, as some method of intimidation. 
unfortunately for him, you got over your fear of spiders a couple of months ago. 
"i could ask you the same thing," you respond. 
spider-man does not find this amusing, apparently, because he just stares at you. waiting and watching. 
eventually, maybe just to evade some awkward silence approaching, you sigh and relent. "i was drawing," you say, gesturing to the notebook you set aside. 
you don't tell him about the music, or your sore eyes. 
or about how when he first showed up you almost fell off the bench. 
these are things he probably doesn't need to know, you think. 
spider-man must frown or something because he grumbles out his next question. "drawing?" he repeats. "at three in the morning? in the dark?" 
"there's a light right there," you point to the streetlight above your head, the picture of innocence. 
you continue to smile at this man, if only because he seems to find it immensely irritating. 
"aren't you cold?" 
"the weather?" you furrow your brows, criticizing him. "c'mon, i thought you were better than that." 
"it's snowing." 
"i hadn't noticed." 
"your paper is getting wet--" he points to your notebook, to the soiled edges. 
it's the first thing to make you frown since he's shown up. 
"shit," you whisper, brushing some snow and lead off of the paper. "i liked this one." 
"sorry." spider-man clears his throat again. he bounces between feet like he's freezing. 
"is spandex warm?" you ask him, leaning forward. 
"i'm fine."
you frown. "are you always this grumpy? or is it just cause i scared ya?" 
"you didn't scare me." 
"must be the hands then," you say, leaning over so you can try and see the hands he's kept hidden behind his back. 
but spider-man pulls them out--two of them--wiggling his fingers. 
you frown. "how'd you do that?" 
spider-man doesn't answer. instead, he looks around, probably for someone to rescue him. 
unfortunately, everyone else went to bed hours ago. 
you grin at him, suddenly and smoothly, holding your notebook out to him. "wanna see?" 
spider-man is definitely judging the mess of a journal you have, but he takes it from you anyway, if a bit hesitantly. "whoa--" he says, turning it over. and then he pauses. 
he looks back to you. 
you smile. 
"this is a penis." 
you and maturity have never gotten along. 
you make an effort to keep a blank face--snickering internally at the dry way he says it--and shake your head. "no," you say, "if you turn it over it's a smile." 
spider-man does so. 
and surely behind the mask, he's doing a slow blink, probably scowling at you. 
"do you like it?" you ask him, keeping your voice soft and sincere. 
he hands it back to you, sighing. "you should head home." 
"so, no?" 
"really," he says, almost gently. "you'll get frostbite. there's a reason no one else is out." 
you blink, leaning back. "except you?" 
spider-man swings his arms back and forth. he looks away. "except me." 
"you can't get frostbite?" you guess. 
and spider-man, despite himself, tries to smother a laugh with a cough. but you hear it clearly enough. 
you furrow your brows as you peer at him. 
and so he points a finger at you, stern. "get packing." 
"what if i live on this bench?" 
he doesn't laugh this time. he just starts to walk away, eyes still on you. "if you're not gone in five minutes i'm swinging you home." 
"you don't know where i live," you say, calling his bluff. 
but he turns around, waving nonchalantly.
you watch him, maybe surprised or irritated. 
either way, you call after him. 
and he spares you a glance. 
"maybe i'll draw you next time," you say. 
and then he's gone, and you're switching playlists. 
*
when peter runs into the bathroom he's not really thinking about germs. 
or toilet seats or washing his hands, or, obviously, checking the stalls for anyone else in there. 
the fire alarm went off two minutes ago; anyone who remains, peter thinks, is probably not going to connect any dots between him and spider-man. 
and when he unzips his backpack, digging his suit out of one of the pockets and cursing as pencils and pens fall onto the ground, he wonders why he didn't iron it this morning. 
why he even tried to do laundry yesterday, considering that he's not very good at it and may has definitely noticed. 
still, he kicks his shoes off. 
the floor isn't wet this time, peter's thinking, so thank god for that. 
he swings his jacket off of his shoulders and hurries to unbutton his pants. 
there's a gentle buzzing of a fan in the corner, only slightly drowned out by the siren that is giving peter a headache. and flashing lights. and people running by. 
and lots of chances to get caught, but not enough care in the world. 
and if peter focuses enough, he can hear some type of music playing, somewhere close. 
loud bass, quick rhythm. 
he almost pauses to think about it, and then decides against it.
he flings his pants onto the floor, folding his shirt over his head. 
it is very cold in this bathroom. 
still, peter slides his socks off, hating the tiled floors, and internally screaming when one of the socks falls under the stall, disappearing to places that peter does not have time to look in. 
and then he's squeezing into a very irritating suit. 
trying to remind himself what the greater good is and blah blah blah. . . 
but his arms are sore as he tries to zip it up, jumping to reach. 
peter is insanely grateful for doors and peace and quiet and advil, of course. 
and finally--finally--when he has the suit on, he scrambles to pick up everything he left on the floor while also putting his web-slingers on. 
a good effort, really. 
he sticks his backpack to the wall, promising himself that he's not going to forget it. 
and then he unlocks his stall, beginning to step out when he catches a glance of you. 
standing right in front of him, white earbud dangling toward the ground, proud smirk as you hold his sock up. 
peter pauses. he stares at you. 
you tap an innocent finger on your chin. "aren't you supposed to check the bathroom before you change?" 
peter's first move is to try and grab the sock from your hand. but you, swift on your feet, duck away, humming to yourself. 
"you're gonna go save a bunch of people with a sock in your hand?" you ask him.
peter thinks for a moment--not about socks, thank god--if you were standing in there when he walked in. 
if you had paused when he burst through the door, not thinking about what bathroom this was or any person who might've stuck around. if your eyes were wide and mischievous--as they are now--when he quickly ducked into a stall. 
but he knows, really, that you weren't there. 
because, peter recognizes, he wouldn't have been able to miss you. 
still, you're smirking at him. 
"better get out there, spider-man," you say, gesturing towards the door. 
and peter doesn't have the time to curse at you because you're right. 
he doesn't bother to try and grab his sock again. 
and when peter opens the door he can hear it--
your laugh. 
and a gentle throbbing of another one bites the dust coming from your headphones. 
*
you're trying not to laugh. 
really, it's an extreme effort as you store the snort deep inside your chest, trying to melt the smile off of your face. 
you are squirming in your seat as your sternum begs for some sort of relief. 
and you contemplate leaving the library before this goes too far. before you start cackling in his face, unable to hold back--even if he gives you a weird look and everyone else around you starts complaining. 
there's not much you can do to stop it, honestly, not when you've been sitting here, studying, for the last hour, music lulling you almost to sleep. and not when the boy who is now sitting in the cubicle next to you kicked his feet out, revealing some scruffed up converse. 
and of course, some mismatched socks. 
when you looked down--in a moment of weakness, dropping some type of pencil--you had to do a double take. 
not that you can judge this boy, who you've been studying for the last five minutes and his choice of attire. you lose your own socks all of the time. 
but there's a grey sock, plain and casual and not unlike your own. and then, just a couple of inches over, there's another sock. this one with a striped, colorful pattern, and words on the other side that you can't really read--for lack of view--but recognize almost immediately. 
because, coincidently, you have the same sock in your backpack, awaiting a certain visitor. 
and so, as soon as you looked up at this boy, the amusement crowded your not-so-subtle eyes. 
he's got brown hair, a frown on his face as he reads a textbook that looks much more than dreadful. his chin is jutted out, his teeth idly munching on the lip between them. a headphone in one ear.
and, of course, this boy doesn't look over. he seems almost unaware of your presence. 
and maybe that's what makes this so funny. 
being that you've experienced this a couple of times now, and it's getting really hard to not say anything about it. 
synchronicities, you know, can only go on for so long. 
and this boy--this strange, somewhat attractive boy--is blissfully ignorant. 
and you can't believe that he's wearing those socks in public.
you clear your throat, smile unstoppable now. 
but he doesn't look over. 
and you cover your mouth, shaking your head and turning yourself completely so that when he finally does decide to look over, he will know that you've been staring at him. 
he will know that there's no avoiding this interaction. 
which, for some strange reason, you're getting immense pleasure out of. 
if you listen close enough you can hear the music he's playing. 
some melancholy guitar music, completely what you would've assumed from him. 
it makes you smile even wider. 
you clear your throat again, leaning forward, legs crossed on your chair. 
you kind of want to make him jump. 
"excuse me," you say, softly. good enough to not draw any attention in this library. 
though, your smile might be enough to raise some eyebrows. 
the boy looks over, eyes wide and attentive. 
you note his face as he takes you in. 
"i was just wondering," you continue, innocently, "where you got your socks?" 
you have rendered this boy speechless. which you seem to do a lot of. 
you cough. "i mean, sock." 
he looks down, to his feet, and then to you, seeming to understand. you catch a smudge of panic in his eyes, carefully glazed over as he opens his mouth, trying to say something. 
he scratches his neck. blinking, with his mouth open, like he's trying to make sure that you're actually there. 
and, to be honest, this is exactly what you imagined of him. 
"lose all of your other pairs, too? or do you just like the look of clashing colors?" you blink at him, leaning back. 
he takes a deep breath. "i'm sorry?" 
"i mean," you shrug, turning back to your desk, "if it were me, i probably wouldn't wear those. especially when someone might have the exact same sock. but, to each their own." 
"you--" he awkwardly laughs. "i just, um, found this. in the bathroom." 
"was it in a backpack stuck to the wall?" you look back to him--his wide, scared, doe eyes--polite smile on your face. 
"actually, i bought them yesterday. they came like this." 
"interesting design choice," you respond. 
and the boy, who is still staring at you, though not quite as breathless now, ducks down, leaning closer to you. "what do you want?" he whispers, eyes glaring. 
"excuse me?" you whisper back.
"i'll--whatever it is, i'll try and get it. just don't--please don't tell anyone." 
you frown, resting your head on a hand. "tell anyone what?" 
"what you--" he looks around for anyone who might be listening. "what you know." 
you tilt your head, questioning, and amused eyes. 
"about me," he clarifies, almost hissing. 
you lean back, studying him. "we just met," you say, with a hand to your chest. 
he glares back. 
"i won't spread your questionable fashion choices around the school if that's what you mean." 
this boy still doesn't laugh. just like the first time, and the second, he seems to find you distasteful. almost annoying. 
and honestly, that might be the only thing fueling this fire in your veins. this want to mess with him until he drops. 
"seriously," he says, angry, "what do you want from me?" 
"just to know where you bought those." 
and then, as quietly and quickly as possible, you bend down to dig into your backpack, smiling in satisfaction as you find it, and then leaning back up, handing it to him. 
"i wouldn't leave those around," you whisper. "you never know who might try and copy you." 
you are almost threatening him. 
the boy glowers. "i don't know what you're talking about." 
you shrug, turning away again. 
but he grabs your arm. "what?" he demands, again and again. 
his eyes are angry, his face is hard and he's leaning away from you like you might reach out and turn him to dust. 
but you only smile, asking sweetly "what's your name?" 
he stares for a moment, blinking. "what?" 
"i think maybe we have met before," you answer. "you seem familiar." 
the boy grinds his teeth together. 
but you wait, shoving that chuckling down your chest. 
"peter," he says, the word mad and tough. 
"peter," you repeat, looking away from him. "nice to meet you. i'm y/n." 
you reach to shake his hand, and he stares at it like it's poison. 
you roll your eyes. "don't worry," you add, softly. "i haven't forgotten. i still have to draw you." 
his frown increases. 
and you laugh as you turn away, thinking about secrets. 
and listening to the music in peter's ears, still drifting over. 
*
peter is not really paying attention tonight. 
he roamed around all day--because there was nothing else to do--talking to strangers and not having to smile for pictures, just hoping for something to pop up. 
and it did, and then it didn't. 
when the problems are easy to fix, peter knows, they're less enjoyable. 
still, the distraction was nice. 
and you are not as you sit on a bench in front of him, smiling. 
you've got that look on your face--the one that makes peter want to run away. 
especially because you know who he is. 
because he's been especially reckless the past couple of weeks, and as a consequence, you have shown up. you have smiled at him, whispering gentle words and even gentler promises. 
and you've got a pencil in your hands. 
a glint in your eyes that peter's seen somewhere before. 
"fancy seeing you here," you say, amused. this is the same bench he passed by on the first night--when he was thinking about going home but didn't. 
peter curses his own stupid decisions; the difference that they could've made. 
"are you going to threaten me again?" peter asks, not really joking, though his voice gives nothing away. 
"i don't know what you're talking about." 
you're shrugging, looking away from him as your lips curl at the corners. 
and then you look back up. "you never did answer my question about the socks, though." 
peter rolls his eyes, though he doesn't miss the way he moves forward, trying to catch a glance at the surely explicit picture you're drawing. 
curiosity is a curse. 
"aren't you cold?" peter merely repeats. 
"it's not snowing. so, no." 
peter grunts. "another body part?" he nods toward the picture you're drawing, the thing you've chosen to look at instead of him. 
"a foot," you grin up at him, eyebrows raise. "though, if you wanted. . . i could get started on my picture of you." 
peter wishes you could see his frown. 
still, he takes another step towards you. "how much?" 
"hmm?" 
"how much are you charging for it?" 
peter watches you stifle a laugh, feels the pin-prick of pleasure in his chest. "only a smile," you say, head tilted. 
"no thanks, then." 
"c'mon, spider-man," you complain. "you're so much nicer to everyone else." 
"everyone else hasn't threatened me." 
you pout. "i won't tell anyone," you tell him, eyes wide, "if that's what you're worried about." 
peter doesn't answer, just stares at you. looking for any tells. 
"i mean," you continue, shrugging. "not that anyone would believe me. you've got enough frown lines to put me to shame." 
as if to prove your point, peter frowns. "what's that supposed to mean?" 
"well, i don't think anyone else has ever heard spider-man so much as grumble. so you. . ." you scrutinize him, nose wrinkled. "you couldn't be him." 
peter narrows his eyes. 
but you smile again, patting the bench next to you. "sit." 
"i can't. i'm working." 
you roll your eyes, sighing. "i'm the only one here. wouldn't you be better off watching me? just to make sure i don't do anything." 
you smile at him, and it's more vicious than kind. 
peter notes your eyes and the secretive glances you're giving him. 
you might be right. 
so he shrugs and moves to sit down next to you. 
he's been closer, anyway. 
you flip to another page, looking up at him, then down. 
and so it begins. 
you hum as you draw him, and peter taps his fingers on the bench, feeling nervous and uncomfortable, and mostly, hating that he's allowed himself to do this. 
maybe just to keep in your good graces. 
"what classes are you taking?" you ask him after a couple of minutes go by. 
"what?" 
"last week," you say, head tilting. erasing something on the paper. you've tilted it up on your knees, leaning against the arm of the bench, so peter can't see. "you were studying. that textbook looked horrible." 
peter lets his lip perk up. 
"what were you studying for?" 
"a chemistry midterm." 
you look at him, eyes just a bit tired. "you're into science?" you ask, almost doubtful. 
peter crosses his arms. 
"i mean, no offense or anything--" you smile as you say it. "--but i would've picked you for a music major. or business." 
peter understands the implication. he doesn't say anything. 
"gym major?" you ask, stealing a glance at his arms, laughing to yourself. 
"what about you?" he asks, suddenly leaning forward. "i didn't realize there were classes on how to manipulate someone." 
"that's called law," you respond, dryly. "and i'm an art major." 
peter is sure you can feel his raised brow. 
you roll your eyes, sighing as you relent. "fine. undecided. but i'm figuring it out." 
you smile again like you know something he doesn't. 
another minute passes, peter listening to the wind and your pencil as you scribble against the page. 
"how long is this going to take?" peter asks, looking up, wondering how long he's been here. 
"you can't rush art." 
"i can when it's annoying me." 
you don't look at him, but peter watches as you tense. he almost catches himself--the words he's just spoken and accidentally let out--and decides not to say anything. 
maybe you'll forget about it. 
"so," you drawl, after thirty seconds of awkward silence. "you're a chemist." 
"engineer." 
you scoff. "sorry, but that means the same thing to me." 
peter snorts back. 
"how old are you?" you ask him, brow furrowed as you concentrate. 
"i'm not telling you." 
you raise a brow, but don't look at him. "why not?" 
"you'll just add it to the file." 
you don't say anything. 
"the file of things you know about me." 
there's a quirk on your face, the clearing of your throat. "i was serious," you tell him, again. "i'm not going to tell anyone. i respect your privacy." 
peter gives you a dubious look. 
"i respect your anonymity," you revise, giving him a grin. "and if you keep moving your face i'm going to mess up your portrait." 
"are you actually an artist?" peter asks, "or is this a ploy to get unsuspecting strangers to stop?" 
"guess," you say. 
"i'm going with the latter." 
you shrug, not looking at him. "i've been told worse. but i think you're really going to like this."
peter doubts that, but he doesn't say anything. 
and another tens minutes pass--in which you scrutinize everything about the suit he designed, snorting when he argues back--and then you're tearing out a page, smiling at him.
"i mean it," you tell him, "next time i see you i want a smile." 
"i could be smiling right now." 
you stare at him. 
"just give it to me." 
you laugh, putting your notebook in the bag next to you. "just don't look until i'm gone, okay?" 
"you don't want to watch my reaction?" 
"i don't think i need to." 
and peter watches as you put everything else away--pencils and erasers and stick of charcoal. he pauses when he finally notices the headphones you tuck into your bag. 
"you were listening to something before i got here?" 
you just nod, zipping up your bag. 
"what?" 
you look up at him, eyes daring. "guess," you say. 
"kanye?" 
you scoff. "please." 
"miley cyrus?" 
you tilt your head, "i would be more likely to listen to the hannah montana soundtrack." 
"metallica?" 
you nod, lips pursing. "you got it, spider-man. i'm a metal kinda girl." 
peter could've told you that. 
but you're smirking before he can respond, pulling the pencil back out, flipping over the paper, and concealing it with your hand so that he can't see. 
"there," you say, after forty-five seconds of scribbling. "now it's finished." 
you put the pencil away, standing up. 
"i'll see you soon," you say to him, nodding. "and that smile." 
peter snorts. 
and then you're walking away, waving an idle hand goodbye as you turn the corner. peter watches until you're gone, making sure that you're not going to pop back out when he least suspects it, and then he slides over on the bench, finally grabbing the paper. 
he flips it over to find a black-and-white picture of himself, every slope and curve of his suit that he recognizes in the mirror. 
and he knows, for sure, that you lied to him. or he lied to you. 
it wasn't the latter. 
still, somewhat amazed, smiling under his mask, his eyes drift down to the words you've written at the corner of the page. 
you are a call to motion, it says. there, all of you, a verb in perfect view. 
and then another foul "smiley face." peter almost laughs. 
when you move, you've written, i move. 
and your number at the very bottom, scribbled a bit recklessly. 
peter memorizes the numbers before he swings home.  
*
you get the first text three days later. 
your phone vibrates in your pocket as you're waiting in line at a coffee shop, watching the people around you move with creases in their brows. 
your fingers itch for the notebook in your bag. 
and when you read the screen, you're a bit confused. 
a text from an unknown number, and all it says is: 
you lied. 
you frown, thinking of who you might've irritated in the past couple of days. 
it only takes a couple of seconds to recall the boy who you've messed with the most. 
peter and the scowls he's given you. 
you smile, knowing what he means. 
and then you send him the spotify link to enter sandman. 
*
peter rolls his eyes when he gets the message. still, he clicks on the link, plugging his headphones into the jack. 
he walks while he listens, wincing at the words. 
and when it's finished--when peter officially decides that he's finished with you--he sends back another link. 
one to the song you wrote out for him, the song you happened to lie about. 
are you flirting with me? he asks, trying not to let himself regret it. 
or smile as he sees the little bubble at the bottom of the screen, letting him know that you're still there. 
you send an emoji of a spider back and peter's smile fades. 
*
you're laughing as you type, you still owe me a smile. 
you move up in the line, trying not to stumble over the shoes of the person in front of you, scowling when peter sends you a scowl back. 
not literally, of course. but it's been two minutes since he read the text, and he has not answered. 
which, you think, is very rude. 
is that a no? you type out. 
peter merely says: you owe me a song.
so you send him knee socks, by arctic monkeys. 
and you forget what to order when you get up to the counter.
*
peter begins to look for you before he walks around any corner. 
he's avoided that bench, thinking that if he gets too close, too soon, you will get bored. 
that you might've already after you sent him that song and he had nothing good to send you back. 
he's been thinking about it for the past couple of days. 
while he studies, and showers, goes to class, and swings from building to building, staring down at tiny people and thinking that one of them might be you. 
but you haven't shown up. peter thinks maybe you've been hiding out too. 
maybe worried because he hasn't texted back. 
but then he corrects himself; he can't imagine you worried about anything. 
still, he peeks around the corner before he moves, waiting for your cheeky smile and irritating laughter. 
instead, he finds a crowd of people that he doesn't know, and who don't know him. 
not that you do either. 
peter is listening to music as he walks. trying to pretend that there is no correlation between you and this song. 
he moves around the people, keeping his eyes low. he says hello to anyone who says anything to him. he smiles at strangers and reminds himself how to be polite. 
he thinks about how mean he's been to you, and wonders if it just comes naturally. 
and when he gets home, kissing may on the cheek and walking up to his room, happy to finally put down his backpack and all of the books in it, he's still thinking about you. 
thinking about the picture he's put on his wall, and your simple handwriting underneath it. neat and smooth, nothing like he'd expected it to be. 
he's thinking about you as he gets undressed, sliding on his suit and staring at the socks he's left on the floor. 
when you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked. . . 
peter shakes his head, kicking them under his bed. 
but, right before he leaves, he grabs his phone from his bed, angrily clicking on a playlist. 
and then he sends you another link, about a week later. 
and he doesn't have it in him to question it. 
*
you awake from your nap to a text. 
the name at the top of your screen just says "itsy bitsy," because you were a little bit delirious and thought it was hilarious when you put him in your contacts a week and two days ago. 
you almost smile at the notification, and then catch yourself. 
spider-man, peter, has sent you a link to love grows (where my rosemary goes). 
you click on it, smirking as you do so. 
and then two minutes and fifty-four seconds later, you finally text him again. 
are you busy tomorrow?
*
"you're my muse now," you say to him, pointing to a stool. 
you sent peter the directions to an art studio, about three minutes off campus, and told him to come at noon. 
it is 12:23 and you haven't stopped smiling at peter since he walked in. 
"any song suggestions?" you ask him, wide eyes and tilted head and that devious smile that runs goosebumps up his arms. 
peter clears his throat. 
"no," he says. "pick whatever," 
you asked him to pose for you. told him that he owed you at least that, if not some laughter. 
and peter disagreed, but didn't argue. 
and now he's not quite sure why. 
you put on some soft guitar music, going to a shelf in the corner of the room to grab something. 
"how's my bench?" you ask him as you move back over to him and sit on the ground. 
peter frowns. "i don't know." 
you pull out a notebook, scoffing. "you're telling me that you haven't checked it once in the past week?" 
"nope." 
"aren't you supposed to be like the protector of new york city, or whatever?" you blow some hair out of your eyes as you say it. 
"that typically applies to people." 
"except me," you grumble, under your breath. 
peter's lip twitches. 
"what are you doing, again?" he asks. 
"well, i figured since i drew spider-man, the least i can do is also draw peter." 
"you said i was a terrible statue." 
"you are," you laugh at him, "but you've got a nice face." 
peter pretends not to feel it as he flushes. 
"i won't show anyone," you tell him, "if you don't want me to. but it would be nice for my still art class." 
"so you are an artist," peter says, attempting to evade your subtle question. 
"only in my dreams. i'm also taking algebra, economics, and philosophy 101." 
peter frowns. 
"i'll declare next year," you tell him, frowning as you erase something. 
"as an art major?" 
you grin at him, but the peter that's on the paper. "wouldn't you like to know?" 
peter doesn't answer that. 
he watches you as you draw him, peeking an eye on the side of his face every couple of moments, and smiling when you catch him staring at you. 
"what's your last name?" you ask him, breaking the silence. 
another song plays, and peter still doesn't recognize it. 
"parker." 
you snort. "figures." 
his brows furrow. "what does that mean?" 
"of course, you would have a superhero-ey name." 
"what's yours?" 
"y/l/n." 
peter laughs. 
you frown. "what?" 
"of course, you would have an annoying-sounding name." 
you glare at him, but peter doesn't miss the twitch of your lip. "don't copy me, parker." 
"don't make it so easy." 
and you don't say anything back, instead choosing to focus down at the paper, but peter notices the little chuckle that falls from your mouth. the silent sneer in your eyes. 
"what?" he asks after it doesn't go away. 
"i think that was the first time you've actually teased me." 
you don't say the rest of it. and peter doesn't acknowledge how comfortable he feels, sitting on this stool as you stare up at him, watching you as you look back. 
"you can use it," he says, suddenly. 
"what?" 
"the picture. for your class."
you don't say anything, but nod in acknowledgment. 
and peter feels like an idiot as the silence drifts. feels like he shouldn't have said anything, shouldn't have agreed to this.
and the song changes again, a soft, melodic sound. 
peter almost smiles. 
"is this opera?" he asks, heavily judging you. 
you grin, dropping your notebook on the ground and standing up. you take a step closer to him, leaning in. 
"shut your mouth and see," you whisper to him. 
peter is almost offended, brows furrowed as he stares at you and how close you are. 
but then someone else echoes the words back, and you begin to dance, holding a hand out to invite him to join. 
peter does, memorizing the slow movement of your hips as he stands up, feeling like his limbs are heavier than they were only four minutes ago. 
and the two of you dance to only angel like no one's watching. 
peter listens to you sing the words under your breath. 
i must admit i thought i'd like to make you mine.
*
you are humming to yourself when you get the phone call. 
when your hand stumbles, pencil creating a harsh line over the drawing you've spent the last twenty minutes hating. you scowl at your hand, and then your phone, for interrupting. 
until you see peter's face on the screen. 
the picture you took of the picture you drew of him, scowling at you like he seems to do a lot of. 
you don't smile, but bite your lip as you press the little green button. 
"hello?" 
"hey," peter says, voice soft. he clears his throat. "what're you up to?" his voice is suddenly louder like he's using a microphone. 
you smile, glad that he can't see it. 
"just laughing at this picture of you." 
"from last week?" 
"yup." 
"really?" 
you roll your eyes, hoping he can feel it. "no," you drawl. "i was just working on something new. what's up?" 
"do you like movies?" 
*
after that, peter doesn't have to avoid you. 
he doesn't look for you around any corners, because you've already leaned forward, already allowed him to see your smile and guess what you might be thinking about. 
"hey," you say to him as you match his stride. "how was class?" 
"boring," peter answers, accepting the earbud you hold out to him. 
"of course, it was," you grin at him, "i wasn't there." 
and peter just barely laughs, feeling a bit light when you smile back, face full of some sort of victory. 
you play a song about being cold, and peter completely understands.
*
"i can't believe you got me to agree to this," you say to him as you open the door. 
you're wearing a dress. pretty and flowing and completely surprising peter, if his face says anything. 
"wow," he says, coughing. then clearing his throat. then coughing again. "it's--you look nice." 
you scowl. "i look terrible." 
peter just chuckles, looking down again, then at your eyes like he's forgotten something. 
you just glare at him, waiting for him to tell you that you don't have to come. 
but peter holds his hand out to you. "ready?" he asks. 
"no. because i'm not going." you try and close the door in his face. 
peter pushes it back, just smiling softly at you. 
finally, you understand why he's been so irritated and cruel to you. if your smile is anything like his, then his reaction is completely rational. 
"it'll be fine," peter coos, reaching a hand out to comfortingly--and condescendingly--rub your shoulder. 
"it's a banquet," you say, just barely getting the words out. "for science." 
"it's a party for engineering majors. i invited you a week ago and you didn't say anything--" 
"all of your teachers will be there," you correct him, staring daggers. "if there are adults there, then it's not a party. and you made it sound fun." 
"we're adults." 
"i'm an adult, peter. you are a child. you are childish for tricking me into this." 
"tricking you?" peter laughs, eyes gleaming. "i don't remember that part of the conversation." 
you, suddenly, smile sweetly at him. "i don't know if you've heard," you whisper, smoothly, "but this is going to be terrible." 
he grabs your hand, rolling his eyes. "it'll be boring, maybe, but not terrible. i'll stay with you the whole time." 
you frown. then say again, in the same, all-knowing tone, "i don't know if you knew this about me, peter parker, but i'm terrible at boring. or being serious. or talking to people." 
"you talk to me just fine--" 
"as soon as anyone says anything i'll start laughing. it's a nervous reaction, i can't control it." 
"i'll put a hand over your mouth." 
"that's a violation of my boundaries." 
peter snorts, "look, not that i'm not enjoying this--" 
you pinch his arm, shaking your hand out of his. 
"--but we're going to be late. we can talk about your chortling on the way there--" 
"chortling?!" 
"witch cackle, guffaw, whatever," peter corrects. 
"you are not making me want to go with you." 
"c'mon," peter whines, catching your hand again. "you're my plus one. everyone will think i'm a loser if i show up without you." 
"they already think that," you hiss at him, moving back again. "and anyway, i can't walk in these." 
you gesture down to the heels you dug out of your closet. 
it took you two hours to get ready, simply because you were stressed out enough to absolutely ruin every outfit you put on. 
"i'll die, peter," you say, staring at him desperately. "die." 
he raises a brow. "you can put on different shoes." 
"you're a man." you wave a hand, scoffing at him. "what do you know about fashion?" 
peter shakes his head. "okay, if your feet get sore, i'll carry you." 
you stare at him blankly. "i highly doubt that, noodle arms." 
the smile that appears on your face is one of satisfaction. 
but peter rolls his eyes and doesn't bother to correct you. 
"look," he says, pulling his phone out. "i brought my phone so we can listen to music. i'll let you pick." 
you look away from his eyes to the strand between his fingers. then back to him. "you promise?" 
"sure," peter says, almost snorting. "and anyway, i heard that there might be karaoke and you know that--" 
as soon as he says the words, you're turning around, grabbing your purse from the table by your door, and locking it. you shut it, reaching for peter's hand. 
"alright," you smile, easily. "let's go." 
peter laughs as you begin to drag him along. 
you sing along to sexy silk while you walk with him, just to keep the smile on his face. 
*
"hey," you say to him as you pick up the camera on his desk. "you didn't tell me about this." 
peter looks over, noting your frown and the furrow between your brows. he's sitting on your bed while you canvas his room, making fun of everything he's got in there. 
not to mention the way you almost died of laughter when you saw your drawing on his wall, telling him that he's a dirty little liar, then smiling a secretive smile at it. 
not that peter noticed.
still, he sits up, watching as you click on some button. 
"there are lots of things i don't tell you about," he says, smoothly, and smiles at you. 
your scowl grows. "you've got a camera?" you ask. 
and then, after peter doesn't bother answering that and another moment passes, your jaw drops. 
"you've taken pictures of me?" you demand, pointing to a moment he got a week ago, minutes before he met you for lunch. 
"that's not you," peter lies, and goes to take it from your hands.
but you pull away. 
"when did you do this?" 
peter hesitates for a moment, but he sees the look on your face. "last week." 
"why didn't i notice?" 
peter smiles. "because you are particularly unobservant." 
you glare. 
". . . and because i was about twenty feet away, and ten minutes early." 
"peter," you complain and whine. "why wouldn't you tell me about this?" 
"didn't want to steal your thing." 
"i don't have a camera." 
he shakes his head. "no, art, or something." 
"you're lying," you say, peering at him. "that's your lying face." 
he holds a hand to his chest, mock offended. 
but you don't say anything as you put the camera back on his desk, frowning at the window and avoiding his eyes. 
peter watches for a moment, at the pout on your face and how soft and smooth your skin looks. 
he thinks about you dancing and almost forgets that you're mad at him. 
"hey," he whispers to you, hand reaching out. "i'm sorry i didn't tell you. i didn't realize that you'd want to know." 
"of course, i want to know," you mumble. peter thinks you might be saying something else.
"well, now you do." 
"i also know about your ninja turtle underwear," you say, with a hint of a smile on your face. 
"yeah," peter says, standing up. "and you can hold it against me forever. i won't even complain." 
you look over at him, raising your brows. "really?" 
"mhmm." 
and then you purse your lips, pretending to consider it. "okay, i guess," you say, as a means to forgive him. 
and peter is glad about that. glad when you walk over to him, pushing his shoulder. 
"but don't do that again," you tell him, almost as a threat. 
"do what?" 
"keep a secret from me." 
peter almost winces, but decides to smile instead. "you already know all of them," he says, simply. 
and you smile back. 
he doesn't quite let himself believe that it's a lie. doesn't think about you being mad, or what you might do if you found out. 
he just sighs, reaching over you to pick up the camera. 
"do you want to see more pictures?" he asks you. 
and then delights in the eager way you nod back. 
*
you are humming along to the song playing from peter's phone as you doodle on the piece of paper in front of you. 
you don't know the name, but peter's played it often enough that you know the words. 
and, coincidentally, he's laying his head in your lap--claiming a headache--as you play with his hair. 
he is almost distracting you as you attempt to draw a pretty little spider on his bedside table. 
peter hums back, but it's not to the song. 
"what?" you ask him, pausing your hand. 
peter reaches up, moving it for you, and you snort. 
"okay, okay," you say to him, and scratch his scalp some more. 
"are you ruining my table?" 
"no more than you already have." 
peter groans, but doesn't bother to look up. you know that he knows that you're not drawing anything on it. 
you smile down at him, then get back to the tiny sticky note you found in his drawer. 
the pen you stole from the dining table downstairs. 
you sing to him, to yourself, and minutes pass, and the song changes. 
but you picked this one, and peter doesn't complain. 
"do you feel any better?" you whisper to him, refraining from calling him a big baby. 
"no. keep going," peter grunts. 
you scoff but listen. 
"look," you tell him, holding the drawing in front of his face. "do you like it?" 
"pretty," peter mumbles. 
but he doesn't even open his eyes. 
so you flick him in the nose, raising a brow. "you didn't even look, you idiot." 
"don't be mean to me," peter whines, "i'm in pain." 
"you refuse to take any medicine."
"you're close enough," he whispers, and you try not to feel anything at the words. 
"just one eye," you say to him, pulling at his skin. 
and peter relents, staring at the picture you've drawn for him. "are you trying to be funny?" 
it's a spider, sure, but a very hilarious interpretation of it swinging and falling off a building, and then, a couple of feet away, a picture of it being smooshed. 
you grin. "i think you should put it on your next suit." 
"i'll think about it," peter says, and closes his eyes again. 
you laugh at him and hope he can feel it. 
sing along to the song until peter falls asleep. 
i wouldn't fall for someone i thought couldn't misbehave. 
*
when peter wakes up, he's alone. 
he wonders when you disappeared and where you went. he aches for the feeling of your hands in his hair and your smile and laughter as he wakes up. 
it's dark outside though, so peter's glad that you're at home, at least, hopefully sleeping. 
he looks at the clock, frowning at the numbers. 
he sits up, head buzzing and blinking until he can see. 
and then he walks over to the bathroom, figuring that he should probably brush his teeth. 
and when he goes back to his bed, back aching and thinking about you, he notices the sticky note you've put on his wall, right next to the picture you drew of him. 
he smiles at it, glad you put it there, where he probably would've put it anyway. 
and there's another one, right next to your bed. 
you're lame and you fell asleep, it says, don't worry, you didn't drool. 
peter smiles, appreciating your handwriting. he puts it on his wall, right next to the other one. 
and then he texts you. 
when did you leave? 
you answer almost immediately: about an hour ago. 
it's one in the morning, and peter frowns. 
did you walk home alone? 
yup! 
he scowls, immediately dialing you. 
"hello?" you say, singing it. 
peter wonders how you have so much energy, but doesn't give himself the time to dwell on it. 
"you walked home alone?" he asks again. 
"yes, peter." 
"in the dark?" 
you hum. 
he's scowling, wishing you were there so you could see how serious he is. "don't do that," he says. 
"peter," you sigh, snorting a bit. 
"you shouldn't be walking home by yourself." 
"might i remind you that you fell asleep? who else was i going to ask at midnight? may?" 
"you could've woken me up." 
peter hears you laugh. 
"aw," you say, "but, baby, you just looked so peaceful." 
peter almost flinches at the words, because you're not being serious and still-- 
"promise me that you will, next time." 
you laugh again. "okay, peter. i'll uber home next time." 
"you'll wake me up." 
"please," you tell him, "i don't have a death wish." 
*
you are frowning as he sits in front of you, but trying not to. 
you're trying to keep a calm face and a smooth mind and repair peter without him figuring out a single thing about you. 
without getting into another fight with him. 
but he knows you, much better than you'd like. 
"what?" he whispers to you, the words soft on your cheek. 
he's got bruises sprinkled over his abdomen. a bright red cut on his cheek. a black eye and fingers that look more like pens than limbs. 
still, you're trying not to be too rough with him. 
trying to clean these wounds without opening up any others. 
"nothing." 
"you're frowning." 
"you've got a big cut on your face." 
he grabs your hand, stopping your movement as you dab at it. "you're frowning," he repeats, a bit louder. 
you sigh and look away. "peter. . ." 
"you're mad at me?" he asks, tilting your head back to him. 
you're three inches away from him, staring. 
and you don't even need to answer, because it takes one look from you, and peter nods. 
"okay," he says, turning his cheek so you can clean the cut again. 
you do. 
and you listen to his breathing, hearing your own heart pound in your ear, staying silent. 
there's not much you can say to him without wanting to scream. 
"are you going to tell me why?" he asks you, minutes later, when you've had to replace the water so it's not so cold. 
you hum. rub some ointment on the wound, apologizing when peter winces. 
"y/n," he says, tilting his head. he's smiling at you like it might get you to break. 
"you're not taking this seriously," you complain, closing your eyes. you move back, just for peter to move forward. 
"hey," he says, grabbing your hand again. his eyes meet yours. "i'm okay." 
"you're hurt," you argue, frowning, concern piercing your brows. "you had to come here so i could patch you up." 
peter swallows. "i wanted to see you." 
"no," you shake your head at him. "you can barely move that arm. you limped in here." 
"it'll be fine by tomorrow." 
you scoff. "but it's not fine now peter!" you whisper the words, but with enough force that he moves back, his eyes wide and his brow furrowing, as if he's just realized how serious you are. 
"you're really mad?" 
you shake your head, looking away from him. "i'm scared for you, and i'm mad because you don't even care. every time," you say, "you just brush it off. tell me that it'll be fine." 
"because i will," peter swears, trying to catch your eyes. 
"but what if you're not?" you ask him, just whispering the words, your voice breaking. "what if you come here," you look back to him, tears evident. "and i can't do anything to help you?" 
peter starts to say something, tries to brush the liquid away, but you flinch back. 
"no. what if someone else has to move the mask? what if they see you, but you're already--" you stop, not wanting to say the words. 
and before you can blink or breathe, peter has wrapped an arm around you, crushing you to his skin. 
he apologizes and holds you close, breathing slowly as you try to catch your breath. 
he whispers in your ear, rubbing your back. 
"i'm sorry," he says, "i didn't realize." 
and you know that. and you know that this argument isn't quite fair. 
"i promise i'll be careful. i promise, okay?" 
you nod against his neck, breathing him in. 
and a moment passes, and you try to memorize the feeling of being this close to him. 
and then you whisper, "you're my best friend, peter. i don't know what i would do without you." 
and it's only partly a lie. 
"i know," peter says, moving back so that he can look you in the eye. "i know." 
you try and smile at him, and he tries and smiles back. 
"okay," you whisper. 
and then you notice the small wince on peter's face. 
you frown. "what?" 
peter looks down to where your stomach has brushed against the cuts on his and clears his throat. "ouch," he says. 
you meet his eyes and laugh.
*
peter knocks on your door, waiting.
he hasn't seen you in a couple of days, and you haven't been answering the phone. 
he hears someone move around. hears a lurking at the door. 
"y/n?" he calls. "i can hear you." 
but you don't answer. 
so peter knocks again, checking his phone for any sign of you, and staring at the door. 
all he gets is a quick "read" message, and then silence. 
he sighs. 
"c'mon," he calls again. "just open the door, or text me, and i'll leave." 
but you do neither. 
peter scowls. "i'm not gonna go," he tells you. "i'll be out here until you are, and when i freeze to death you're going to feel really bad." 
he might hear a scoff, but the only thing that follows is some silence. 
he says your name again, leaning against the door. 
and then he scrolls on your phone, sending you another text. 
he hears your phone ring on the other side of the door. 
and he can hear you sighing because he's just sent you a link to door. 
there's a moment that passes, where peter is just a bit proud, and then you open the door. 
"that's not even what that song means," you tell him, glowering, but you let him in. 
peter just smiles at you.
*
you're drawing him again. laughing as he teases you and listening to a playlist that he's made for the two of you--promising that it was great and that you'd enjoy it very much. 
this time, though, it's a bit different. 
you haven't asked to draw him since that day when he met you in the studio and finally looked comfortable enough to sit still. you haven't wanted to push that line, again, because you knew that it would be different. 
and that last picture of him, well. . . 
it's not the same as now. not the same as peter is when he's smiling at you. 
when he's singing along to a song that he's chosen and rolling his eyes when you say something, or make fun of him. 
it's not the same, you know, because last time, it was merely some strange sort of attraction to him. some want, or need, or crazy, fantasy thing. 
but now. god. 
now you know peter. now you know what he looks like when he's upset, how he acts when he's scared, or what he cares about, or who he truly is, behind the mask. 
now you're in love with him and trying to hide it. 
unsuccessfully, you're sure. 
"how much longer?" peter asks you, spinning around in your chair as you sit on your bed. 
it's also different because he's in your room, messing with your things. 
"i've already told you, peter, that you can't rush art." 
"you're probably not even drawing me." 
you grin down at the paper. 
peter continues to sing, continues to flip through an old notebook of drawings. 
"you know," you tell him, just glancing up to meet his brown eyes. "i don't like this song very much." 
peter raises a brow. "really?" 
you nod, pursing your lips. 
and so he sings even louder. 
"a zero, zero," peter says to you, laughing. "now he's a--" 
you throw a pillow at him, smirking. 
peter frowns. "that's going to ruin the drawing." 
"so is your singing," you tell him. "stay still, peter." 
"can i at least see?" he asks. 
"not till i'm done."
and then the song changes, and suddenly, you're grinning at him. 
just like that first day.
*
as soon as peter hears the opening chords, he's cursing himself for putting this song on the playlist. 
for letting himself be manipulated at the thought of your smile, and funny laugh as you danced around to this one the first time. for allowing himself to give in to it. 
because your smile is nothing but evil. 
and suddenly, you're not drawing, but standing up, biting your lip. 
"hey, good lookin'," you croon. moving your hips and your shoulders and smiling at him because you just know. "whatcha got cookin'?" 
peter throws his head back and groans. 
but you're singing along, dancing around him, and whispering the words in his ear. 
"there's soda pop and the dancing's free," you whisper, the goosebumps much more than a physical reaction. 
and, really, peter's trying not to smile as he watches you dance. as he watches your smile ebb and flow and listens to your voice, to your accent as-- 
"--so we can go steady," you gesture at him, smiling sweetly. "how's about saving all your time for me?" 
you are a monster, an absolute devil as you pull peter up, as he goes so willingly, and begins to dance with you. 
his hands around your waist and yours wrapped around his neck and that goddamn smile. 
and your voice, and every single thing that you mean to him. 
"c'mon," you say to him, giggling. "dance." 
and he does. he can't stop. 
then, when the song begins to fade, and you whisper a last "how's about cooking something up with me?" he pulls you down to your bed. 
he's almost breathless and laughing at you as you try to squirm away. 
he's absolutely gone as you still against him, suddenly realizing where you are. 
that he's pulled you so that you're laying right against him. and, peter is three inches away from you, and he can feel your breath against him. 
he can see your smile as it almost fades. 
as you watch his eyes, but falter, and look down. 
down and down and peter's eyes follow. 
he's staring at your lips, and he almost doesn't notice it as he leans in, as your breath hitches. 
and he kisses you. 
finally. finally. 
he pulls you as close as he can get you, hand wrapped around your neck, and at the base of your head, and digging into you, and your hands are on his face, they are still and alive as you grip onto him just as tight as he's got you. 
as you pull him, push and pull his lips, and breathe into his mouth. 
as he finally feels all of you, and thanks god that you're there. 
and when he pulls back, almost disassociating, eyes wide, he's staring at you. 
he's listening to a song in the background but he doesn't know the words. 
he can't think at all, can't breathe with you right there. 
"i'm sorry," he whispers, as he suddenly remembers who you are and what you mean to him. 
but you--you smile at him. you laugh like you can't believe it. 
you look into peter's eyes and you see all of him. 
you shake your head, one hand drifting to your lips like you can feel something new. 
you laugh again. 
"peter," you whisper to him, and he's staring back. "do it again." 
if you were a waiting room, i would never see the doctor. 
*
more of them.
my masterlist here.

Tumblr media
I am so obsessed with this rendition of Again from From the Rehearsal Room: Tokyo that I decided to extract its audio, master it with my limited knowledge in audacity and little help from AI, put it on my music playlist, and even consider trying to extract everything from this particular stream, from what I found on bilibili. I think of all 3 livestream they did, this one is the best because of the song choices, the studio acoustic (I'm always obsessed with good sound acoustic in music recording), and the simple arrangement consists of grand piano (wonderfully played by the way, kudos to the pianist) and two guitars by Ramin and Hadley themselves. I notice this is the first one they did, isn't it? Because they were trapped in long quarantine and Sierra eventually couldn't come. I'm late to this so I only read how it went and I feel sad.
Tumblr media
Also presenting some other songs that I have extracted:
Hadley sings Maria(??!!) and it's so good wtf. That high note, gosh.
Ramin's special, of course. I need this because I want Till I Hear You Sing without "ten long yeaars" part but there is no other more good recording on apple music/spotify except that one from Ramin's album which I really hate (the whole album basically). So thank god this exists.
I actually know this song for long because it was on some ad but I think that was Sinatra's version. I didn't know this song is from a musical until I fall down to this hole. Actually found out a lot of songs that actually are from musicals thanks to this hole. Gosh, I used to be so deep into musicals during Les Mis movie era but not THIS deep.

i have been doing cpn posts here and there about wyb’s alleged song list and here is another one. i’m just gonna name it wyb’s playlist cpn from now on. so the explanation is, some people know wyb’s personal qq music account so if you follow him you can see what he has been listening to. i am not really familiar with the app so idk how the settings work if he can hide some. no one is saying how they found out about the account, which makes sense for privacy. in a similar way that some fans know zz/wyb’s gaming account till now. feel free to not believe it cause i understand that things like this can be sus & people on the internet tend to lie.
for me personally tho, i love this cause i think music really speaks of what someone is feeling. and you have wyb who is not exactly big on social media so we rarely know anything. aside from his now extensive movie list, his playlist is something that is interesting too. not necessarily cpn-wise all the time.
Tumblr media
this post will cover golden hour & some recent eason chan tracks added. 🎶🎵
The first one is GOLDEN HOUR which was used in ZZ’s vlog in Milan. It was a pretty popular song back then but it became more know because of ZZ’s post and even the singer reacted to it. Since then, it’s been a favorite among BXGs considering the meaning of it too.
This is what WYB’s playlist looked like on 3/28/23 People who follow said he hasn’t updated it for a week and then suddenly this track is added in. A piano version of Golden Hour. They say WYB usually adds relaxing music like piano tracks and some of nature, but not often. So it’s interesting how this one was added. At the time, they just don’t know the relevance. ( this screenshot was taken 00:38 3/29 but it has been this way since 3/28 )
Tumblr media
and um hello to the rihanna songs! he is such a fanboy! as he should. and also kendrick! 👋🏼
then XZS posts the vlog with that BGM the next day.
Tumblr media
dude, what are the chances. these vlogs are edited real time, we know that xzs team were working hard to feed content so the song must have been decided then and there. wyb listening to that the day before, next day it’s the BGM for ZZ’s vlog? i’m just thinking about ZZ sending it to him first to watch then WYB decided to add the song to his playlist. Or maybe they have already been lovin it and decided to use it on ZZ’s vlog.
so sweet!!!! 🥹🥹🥹🥹
the most recent one is this updated 2/13 ( the 3rd track i blurred sung by faye wong, i already talked about here ) :
Tumblr media
The first one is this song ⬇️⬇️⬇️ which is about accompanying someone as a form of love. and isn’t that so them? it’s a known message that they both believe in, accompanying that person is a way of showing your love. screenshot 1 is from YT of a native speaker translating the title and that’s the one i’m going with.
also, sorry but i’m linking R1SE’s cover of the song cause it’s beautiful. 🫶🏼
Tumblr media Tumblr media
youtube
AND THESE LINES! WYB is such a romantic! I cannot! It’s so him! Someone who will like and love this one thing and will stick to it till the end. 🥹
Accompanying you to turn loneliness into bravery
I lost again and again, I didn’t leave
Accompanying is the longest love confession
How long is the future
Stay with you until the story is finished
Tumblr media
This is the second one, cloudy day. Which he was also allegedly listening to back in 3/2022 when he was filming and they haven’t seen each other for month.
Tumblr media
What does the sky look like
What is love like
Several clouds forgot where to go on a cloudy day
Missing and loneliness
Blowed into the left ear
Maybe I can’t remember, but I can’t forget the time
That secret happiness
What to say to the cloudy day
From what i can gather, it’s about thinking of love and the good things even if it’s a cloudy day. Usually it must feel sad, but this person still chooses to see the good in it. Again, this is so WYB. He sees it and does not mope, he remembers the blue sky and white clouds instead.
Eason Chan is a famous singer that a lot of people listen to so i know that WYB is not the only person in China who probably has one of his songs on his playlist. Compared to Golden Hour which was unusual and the timing being sus. However for this, the fact that it’s added close to Valentines Day? Is this what he is feeling? So freakin in love! ♥️🥹
Anyway, I hope they had fun with the time they had together last CNY break ( allegedly ) and that their love endures & flourishes in the years to come! 🫶🏼

Star Patient's Official Playlists!
Hello, my stars! My previous poll has shown positive feedback for adding playlists to my Amnesiac! Obsessive! Patient! Andrew Graves x Yandere! Nurse! Reader—Star Patient series. so here's the announcement!
I have six playlists for my stars to listen to while reading my yandere series. Each playlist is unique with their own meanings. This post is the explanation and introductory of these playlists and what they offer to your ears and reading experience. Links are provided!
The playlists:
Tumblr media
Playlist 1 - (Y/N)'s Mixtape
A playlist of many different genres all brought together by the emotions of (Y/N)! Throughout the series, we see many different sides of our reader, so it only makes sense for our playlist to have many different genres too! From punk, to old love songs, to alt rock, and of course it wouldn't be (Y/N) without depression and lovesickness!
Some of these songs may even give hints about (Y/N) and future characters and plots too...
Soundcloud link: (https://soundcloud.com/stellar-constellations/sets/star-patient-y-n?si=24e8c3f8eaa4478b9a34d348d71a062e&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)
Spotify link: (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6kPtVJvCbki4fcnmK5GZT4?si=cc841fae0bcc4682)
Tumblr media
Playlist 2 - Andrew's Mix
What I believe Andrew would personally listen and what songs he would like, so basically the playlist is my music headcannons for him. These are simple head cannons that are just harmless opinions, harmless opinions that people shouldn't take seriously nor should they act like freaks about (y'all know the type of people I'm talking about, they're unfortunately very common in the TCOAAL fandom).
These songs also correlate to his past (we all know it, being starved and abandoned with Ashley), along with the development of his feelings to (Y/N).
Soundcloud link: (https://soundcloud.com/stellar-constellations/sets/star-patient-andrews-mix?si=719861d03c2649e0a23ae69ccbc826a9&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)
Spotify link: (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4xnGLNokCmIk8tajzKzKED?si=88f08a43050744f7)
Tumblr media
Playlist 3 - Oldies Playlist
A playlist for all our old souls. I feel like Tumblr playlists are so boring because they don't have much playlists that really connect with the readers. All of my readers have different tastes in music and I wish to accommodate them. Of course, I unfortunately can't do all the genres I wish (metal, rock, country) due to the fact that they wouldn't quite match Star Patient's themes nor would there be much songs that resonate with the series; however, old love songs music is fortunately a genre that can be interpreted with Star Patient!
This playlist is a of old love songs, a genre I would die for!
Soundcloud link (https://soundcloud.com/stellar-constellations/sets/star-patient-oldies-playlist?si=b7f1d157b16d45079d83c9a8c4d6d3ee&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)
Spotify link:(https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Y20wh1ahOq3D7zJMWchH5?si=9676e70feb7a46ec)
Tumblr media
Playlist 4 - Calming Playlist
A place to de-stress and read some yandere fan fiction. This playlist has many calming melodies and lyrics verging from nostalgia, sadness, and love. Not everyone likes listening to loud pop or screaming lyrics, so this playlist is for those who enjoy the peaceful voices and sounds of violins and pianos.
While this playlist is similar to instrumental, it's still has its own place.
Soundcloud link (https://soundcloud.com/stellar-constellations/sets/star-patient-calming-playlist?si=85d0b7e90b0a4992a49d552319b1069e&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)
Spotify link: (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1GZSLwRTSgly9iTuw6minI?si=c0f5569290ec41f1)
Tumblr media
Playlist 5 - Instrumental Playlist
While this playlist is similar to the calming playlist, this one has practically no lyrics. It does have some lo-fi, classical, and instrumental soundtracks all spread throughout the playlist.
I understand some people can't focus on reading if there's any voices as it serves as a distraction for those who have a harder time focusing on tasks, so hopefully this playlist will help making it easier for those who want to read and listen at the same time!
Soundcloud link (https://soundcloud.com/stellar-constellations/sets/star-patient-y-n-1?si=05a1e6c6de5e47f1930af5f5cc1c925f&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)
Spotify link:(https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7msbvdBueJCKmcGrA7mwvX?si=c05c10f2d6724ad4)
Tumblr media
Playlist 6 - Obsessive Playlist
And finally, we have the obsessive playlist aka the yandere playlist. It would be wrong not to have a playlist full of devotion and lovesickness for a series that features just that!
This playlist features tons of different genres and lyrics all relating to yandere. It has some of the classic yandere songs, but honestly I've gotten bored listening to the same songs in every yandere playlist so I've expanded beyond just those. Let's be honest, we all know "Suki Suki Daisuki" and "An Unhealthy Obsession" is in every yandere playlist, it's time for some new songs.
Soundcloud link (https://soundcloud.com/stellar-constellations/sets/star-patient-obsessive?si=77c70d1f293e47199829fe51c4b07255&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)

vito scaletta headcanons 🤎
Tumblr media
- vito smells like the spray called ‘lynx africa’ (‘lynx’ is known as ‘axe’ in other countries)
- autumn is his favourite season. he absolutely adores cloudy days. if he’s in a good mood, he loves sunny afternoons. the dark blue sky before night or sunrise is another one he likes. vito loves to look out the window while thinking and sometimes goes on walks
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- even though vito is a strong tough guy, he does get quite emotional and sentimental at times but seems to hide it (perhaps he has a good cry when nobody’s around. bit of a softie)
- baby blue, black and brown are vito’s favourite colours
- chicken pizza is his go-to pizza flavour. and of course, ham and cheese sandwiches are his favourite food!
- when it comes to instruments, vito is good at all of these: piano, drums, accoustic guitar and even singing (my vito A.I voice cover proves he can sing like an angel)
listen to his singing, you will not be disappointed 🥹🫶
- vito gives the bestest hugs you could ever feel in your life
- his hair is really soft and he cares a lot for his fashionable outfits
- (modern time music) vito is the kind of guy to listen to sad stuff like alex g, tv girl, the cardigans, fiona apple, lana del rey, radiohead and mother mother. especially fiona’s album called ‘tidal’. but he tends to gravitate a lot to alex g since he’s just a quiet chill sad boy. also, out of all music genres, his favourite is emotional piano/violin/acoustic guitar music
(take a quick look at my vito playlist if you wanna get the idea of what mixed stuff he likes to listen to)

2. the streaming tracklist used to have two songs, square (solo piano version) and shame (jammin' out solo version) which were deleted for unexplained reasons.
Tumblr media
3. shame was originally written for a dance film by big evil collective, titled "dalliance"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. the photographer for the album cover (jade greene) says he took the photos at theater x, a spot between the suny purchase performing arts center and bookstore
Tumblr media
5. as with lush, retired from sad, new career in business does not have a physical release as mitski self-released it rather than through a label
this is day 1 of the mitski advent calendar 2023, a series of daily mitski content leading up to christmas
treat yourself and listen to the mitski song of the day:

Older brothers || Little things they do
Genre: Fluff
Type: Headcanons
Characters involved: Lucifer (Obey me!), Mammon (Obey me!), Leviathan (Obey me!)
Prompt: Little things they do to communicate with you.
Lucifer
• Lucifer is gifted when it comes to music, that is no secret. He adores his piano and takes great care of it.
• Part of him feels like he can express the feelings inside his chest better that way: sadness, anger, love; a key for each one of his emotions.
• One subtle thing he did, and that perhaps took you time to notice, was leaving the door of his studio open for you while he played.
• You'd walk by and listen, not coincidentally, to your favorite melody turned into a beautiful piano tune.
• Lucifer would notice you curiously peeking through the door and smile, pretending as if he hadn't seen you.
• The small sounds of amazement that escaped your mouth and the little claps you'd give to cheer on him were more than enough to make him happy.
• This demon also takes a look at your music playlist while you are not looking, so he can learn the scores.
• Piano is his way to say “I'm here for you, come closer.”
Mammon
• The second oldest has the soul of a crow trapped on his pretty little bubble head. He likes shiny and glittery things, valuable stuff; his sin is greed, after all.
• He hoards all kinds of items that catch his eye: Golden coins, silver jewelry, gemstones. Of course, it's a small loot, and he hides it very well from his brothers.
• Once he considers his treasure is worthy enough- it never is to his standards, but he tries – he puts it in a small cardboard box and leaves it on your bed.
• The first couple times it happened, you were a little confused. Mammon would only stammer something along the lines of “For you, dumb human” and leave, trying to- unsuccessfully- hide his flushed face.
• After a while, you started a small collection of the many things the demon gave you. It became a little game; you'd sort them out by color, size, and material.
• If you decide to wear a piece of jewelry from “Mammon's awesome treasure” (as he called it), he gets all goofy and dumb, boasting about it.
• If he notices you staring at an item a little too long at a store, he steals it buys it for you. He could be drowning in debt and still get you pretty gifts.
• Giving you shiny stuff is Mammon's way of saying “All of mine is yours too”. However, the meaning of his action also implies “No matter what, you are still more valuable than these things.”
Leviathan
• Leviathan, much like Mammon, can be qualified as a hoarder. The only difference between them would be, perhaps, that Levi tries to keep his stuff tidy and organized.
• We all know he is into anime and manga, so it's not uncommon for him to be reading or binge-watching his favorite series.
• A thing he does for you, even if it may seem like a burden to him, is that he always explains to you the plot of his anime. Like, he genuinely believes that if he manages to make you understand, you'll feel less weirded out by his weeabo self.
• It's not like his eagerness for these things bothers you, you find it kind of cute, but it'd be a lie to say that you understand what he talks about all the time.
• So you'd sit close to him, watching him read/watch his stuff in silence, and lean your head on his shoulder. Almost like a switch, he'd pause the episode or interrupt his lecture to tell you in great detail “How the protagonist sucks because he is overpowered”, etc.
• He felt closer to you that way, you were a haven for an introvert like him, so he'd really try to keep you around.
• Another thing he does is that, whenever you knock on his door to hang out in his room, he always takes a little longer to open. It's not because he is nervous about you visiting, he just freaks out because he doesn't want you to see his special merch. Wouldn't want you to think you are a creep.
• This is Leviathan's way to say “I care about you, please stay a while. I need you by my side.” He accommodates his hobbies so that you can fit on them with ease; better with you than to be alone.

You wanna know what (my) ADHD is like?
ADHD is deciding you want to work on one of your WIPs so you grab a coffee and head to the library because it’s a change of scenery and it’s quiet, but you already had your AirPods in when you got there, so you spend the first fifteen minutes making trying to find the song that sounds suspiciously similar to the one you’re already listening to before you actually start writing.
Everything is going smoothly and flowing well until you have to fact-check something and while you’re looking for the answer you stumble across a TikTok video you made (because you use TikTok for fact/accuracy checking) and then you start scrolling through other videos you have made and find one that did really well, basically a collection of pictures of your favorite actresses, so you decide to make an updated version and you start alternating between Pinterest, Instagram, and Google to find photos.
Trying to find the perfect photos takes way longer than you expect because you find photos you think would be useful for other projects and you are also having to make sure the photos you chose for this project are the best quality, and during that process, you realize the lighting that is coming through the window where you’re sitting is really good so you snap some selfies and then you go back to looking for photos but then you notice a wholesome interaction between who you assume is a father and a daughter and you just have to write about it and then you can go back to looking for pictures.
At some point, you start thinking about buying a camera because you’ve been wanting one for years so you do about five minutes of “research” (looking up “best cameras for beginners” on TikTok and then doing a quick google search) before adding a camera and a lens to your amazon cart, but then you look at the total and think “that’s a lot of money” so you look up when cameras go on sale because the only sale you can think of is Black Friday/Cyber Monday and it’s currently February and you find there is usually a sale in July/August so you set a reminder in your calendar and move the two items in your amazon cart to your wish list.
After all of that, you switch back to the story you were supposed to be working on and you realize it’s been over two and a half hours, you’ve written 100 words for your work in progress, written a 186-word account of the wholesome interaction you witnessed, got nowhere near finishing the TikTok video you were working on, your music has changed from sad piano playlist to the playlist you listen to when you want to feel like the badass main character, you talked yourself out of buying $600 worth of camera equipment, and you are about to poop your pants from finishing your Dunkin cold brew over an hour ago.
ADHD is also being unaware that you were so deep into the hyperfocus zone until you’re sitting in your car and you return to reality and you remember that other people are not just NPCs.
ADHD is also coming back to edit this because you realized no ADHD person is going to want to read that long of a paragraph (including me) 🤦‍♀️ It still big paragraphs but it’s a bit better now imo
