6, 11, and 19- UHHHHHH any of them that vibes these questions! <:"Dc
afternoon lori!! thank you for the ask :D
6. Who will they take advice from, no matter what it is? Who won’t they take advice from, no matter what it is?
Caine-
taking advice: chen. without a doubt its chen. caine would question him or argue if they dont understand why hes giving the advice he does, but at the end of the day, he trusts that chen has his reasons, and that those reasons make sense.
refusing advice: hmmm,,, significantly harder to answer tbh. caine is pretty accepting of a lot of avenues of information. maybe hollow ground? so far hes been extremely suspicious of the kingpin, Especially after almost getting threaded. either that or regina, but would she even survive long enough to give them advice???? shes the only person so far they actually want revenge against.
Cyrus-
taking advice: anathema. too bad hes dead. nobody to stop cyrus now.
refusing advice: id say chen, purely for "fuck him, he wouldnt piss on me if i was burning" reasons. hed be way too suspicious of any 'advice' chen gives to act on it.
Cecilia-
taking advice: ceci doesnt exactly do advice. more like suggestions. most of them come from ortega, not because she particularly trusts him but because most of his suggestions tend to be fun. ofc she also turned down therapy so like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
refusing advice: daniel. for extremely petty reasons. even deciding to stay at his place was an idea she came up with, not him. danny has no Idea how much of a pain shes going to be now that theyre rooming together.
Cynthia-
taking advice: hollow ground. #justthreadedtingz😍🤪
refusing advice: the funny thing about cynthia is that she cares for the people shes close to, she just doesnt trust them, so this applies to a lot of people. definitely ortega because thats probably the messiest divorce i ever did see, but also dr mortum, because she doesnt think she would understand the situation shes in enough to give advice even if their relationship Doesnt completely fall apart when the puppet thing is revealed.
11. They’ve won the lottery. Spend, or save?
Caine- nothing really to spend it on. save, unless theres something he really wants to get his hands on.
Cyrus- could be useful in the future. save.
Cecilia- depends, does she still have her funds from thievery? if no, spend. if yes, pretend to spend it by showing off things she already owns to throw people off her track, then save it. or spend if theres something mundane she wants.
Cynthia- doesnt really like having big sums of money lying around. spend it on villain work.
19. Do they study before tests? Practice before job interviews?
Caine- i mean. does going into a rabbit hole of tangentially relevant information a week before count? not for job interviews though. they couldnt care enough about that.
Cyrus- duh. hes the person somebody would go to if they need notes or extra tutoring.
Cecilia- no, but if she cared about tests enough shed be a top student, and she usually manages to fly by on job interviews because shes pretty charming.
Cynthia- yes, but for school its because the subjects are interesting to her, while the job interview is for general "i want to get the job" reasons.
questions from here!
#pulp answers#ask game#once again i am obsessed with chen and caines dynamic with trust#but to elaborate a little more while sparing the rant#caine trusts chen enough to argue with him because they want to understand his perspective#theyd do a lot for him but he wants to know /why/ first- he doesnt want to act blindly for the sake of following orders#which is more than what i could say for some of their other relationships#if i had to say somebody alive for the “who would cyrus get advice from” question itd be dr mortum#hes smart+one of cyrus best friends+doesnt have any annoying moral hangups to get in the way of giving good advice#theres just a small little hangup of dr mortum getting extremely pissed at him for letting argentine get hurt but you know im sure its fine#OKAY BUT TO BE FAIR TO CYNTHIA#EVEN IF SHE WASNT THREADED#AS LONG AS SHE GOT THE PROTECTED STATUS SHED BE THE MOST WILLING TO LISTEN TO HOLLOW GROUND#potential big sibling???? who seems to care enough about her to protect her from their own mind???? who cynthia doesnt have to worry about-#-a big bad secret destroying their relationship over????? are you fucking kidding sign her up#hollow ground couldve had it All if they hadnt fucked it up first meeting by threading her#now its just a matter of time before that explodes in their face Again#something i find really interesting is that cynthia kinda. underestimates ortega and dr mortum? but not in terms of their abilities#more in what they would accept and understand. like she doesnt think they could ever really Get the things shes done yk?#which is why she keeps lying to them#all of my steps are already well-off to wealthy but still choose to live Like That (coughcainecough)#anyway! thank you again for the ask lori!#caine lynzal#cyrus becker#cecilia rider#cynthia garcia#sidestep#fhr

teen!caitvi AU drabble based on this art by me!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
warning: i am not a writer! and english isn’t my first language! i hope this still makes sense :) its a bit messy its not very well explained sometimes but i hope i got the point across! enjoy!
Ekko was sent by benzo to deliver things at jayce’s workshop and vi and claggor join because ekko’s quite young to go on his own anyways, vi is like, acting as the bodyguard and shes looking all tough and mysterious making sure ekko is okay constantly
they knock and stand at the door, vi staying behind ekko to look around and jayce is like come in! bc they have quite a lot of things and while vi stands back still cautious, she completely drops her tough demeanor when she sees young cait tinkering with some of jayce’s stuff, goggles on. Vi tries to be discreet but her eyes keep darting back at Cait while ekko and jayce conclude business, claggor catches vi but doesnt say anything, and cait comes towards them, taking the goggles off, a big smile on her face.
"Nice to meet you all!" she goes in her thick british accent and she offers a handshake to Vi who doesnt know what to do with that so she kinda blushes and stares at cait, cait going "I’m Caitlyn!" and, embarrassed and flustered, vi just frowns and doesnt say anything, sorta turning around and caitlyn takes that VERY personally and from that point on she’s got beef with her and Vi kinda regrets how stupid she acted but tries not to think about it too much.
now everytime ekko has business in piltover, vi INSISTS on joining, saying its for safety but really its in the hopes she’ll run into caitlyn again. one time at a fair, benzo has a booth to sell things in piltover and ekko runs it, naturally, vi and the other kids join, Jayce and Caitlyn visit the booth and when cait sees Vi she just turns her head away with a frown, still upset at their last interaction and refusing to look at her, and Vi decides to tease her and ask about what theyre doing here. Cait kinda ignores her at first but ends up yapping about jayce’s and her’s latest experiments and shes talking sooo much and vi listens to all of it and when cait realized shes been talking too much they both kinda laughs and then jayce says they have to go so they leave and they smile at each other
throughout the fair Cait tries to “accidentally” walk in front of ekko’s booth again, and when she does, Vi is gone and she asks Ekko where she went and ekko shrugs, cait keeps walking around until she sees Vi walk around and cait joins her and they just kinda tease each other and argue the whole day but in a cute way but they both try to pretend they dont like the other bc they have such different lives and vi keeps calling cait entitled but she doesnt even mean it. From then on, Vi starts sneaking out to meet Cait outside her gate, but she has no idea how to get her attention, so she kinda sits there in the rain for a while until one of the dog starts barking, waking, thankfully, only Caitlyn up who looks out her bedroom window and goes outside to see little wet puppy vi standing at the gate and trying to make up an excuse as to why shes here like jayce forgot a tool from ekko and it was just easier to get it to her house instead and they end up talking until so late even tho its freezing outside, the gate still separating them, like the wall that socially separates them.
they start meeting up almost every week, like clockwork, outside of Cait’s house to talk, and for Cait to yap about things she likes while Vi listens. one day, Cassandra catches them and forbids Cait to see Vi again. They both cry themselves to sleep and Vander notices Vi’s change in mood after that, and asks her about it. she tells him everything and apologizes for lying and sneaking out but vander isnt upset, he hugs her and tells her theyre going to figure it out.
Vander decides to go talk to Cassandra at the next Piltover-Zaun event, Vi standing shyly behind Vander’s leg, Caitlyn standing straight next to Cassandra, both girls so excited to see each other again even tho its weird and awkward with their parents talking in front of them, Cassandra listens to Vander who’s putting on The Charm™️ and she eventually sighs and allows them to see each other bc she sees Vi isnt a menace
that day they both walk around Piltover, often almost holding hands but theyre too shy so they don’t, but Vi wants to show Cait she likes her but she doesnt know how to because they shouldnt and also because she doesnt know how to show love in a way that Caitlyn would understand. they walk around and its comfortably quiet this time, even tho theyre used to yapping and yapping for hours but this time they just want each other’s presence. at one point they walk through a tiny crowd and theres a small group of Zaunites laughing at them, at the contrast between their clothes and demeanors and they hear one of the boys call Caitlyn and a not-so-nice words like stuck up or worse, Vi isn’t even sure but she immediately knocks him down in one punch and Cait has absolutely no idea what to do or say but she then grabs Vi’s hand and they run away, when theyre safe away from that crowd, Caitlyn gets SOOO mad in her little british accent and Vi just sits, knuckles bloody, listening to Cait lecture her.
Eventually, cait calms down and looks down at Vi’s hands and sighs, starting to unwrap her bandages to check her wound muttering “You are such an idiot, Violet.” and Vi just smiles as Cait cleans her wounds.
bonus:
cait begging her mom to let her bring vi to one of the shooting tournaments and Vi joins and they have so much fun and cait lets vi try out her rifle and shes so bad and they laugh and caitlyn teaches her and theyre having a moment but cait’s parents interrupt and theyre blushing and being silly teenagers with a crush and they dont know how to deal with it. cait is definitely the one to fall first even tho she represses it bc vi is from zaun and thats not how she was raised, but she becomes closer with vi and vi realizes wayyyyy too late that she has a massive crush and also that cait is not being slick about it in the slightest. she talks about it with vander at the last drop she sits at the counter with her head in her hands like ughhhhhh i hate having a crush its so stupid and vander laughs
thank u for reading :))

could you write something about sirius and remus fighting over who should get to ask the reader out, but what they dont know is that she is dating snape, and she doesnt particularly like either remus or sirius because of how they treated snape when they were younger?
OUT OF THEIR REACH
hi sender! thank you for the brilliant idea, i hope this meets your expectations.
pairing : severus snape x reader
genre : hurt-comfort, fluff
warning : -
summary : as in the request
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
sirius crossed his arms, leaning back against the kitchen counter in grimmauld place, glaring at remus. “i’m just saying, moony, you’d bore her to tears. she needs someone who can actually make her laugh, someone fun.”
remus rolled his eyes, flipping through the pages of the book he wasn’t actually reading. “and i suppose you think you’re the obvious choice? she’d see through your… what is it you call it? charm? in about five minutes. she’s intelligent, sirius. she’d want someone who can keep up with her, not a childish prat who thinks barking at strangers is a valid conversation starter.”
“oh, right, because you’re so much better,” sirius snapped, pushing off the counter. “you think she’s going to fall for your brooding, tortured act? please. she deserves someone who can bring her some excitement, not books and lectures.”
“books and lectures?” remus raised an eyebrow. “this from the man who can’t hold a conversation without turning it into a story about himself? maybe if you’d listened to her for once instead of showing off, you’d realize she’s not interested in your theatrics.”
“and she’s interested in you?” sirius shot back, stepping closer. “you can’t even muster the nerve to talk to her properly, remus. at least i’ve got the guts to-”
“both of you, stop.”
your voice cut through the room like a cold breeze, and they both froze, turning toward you with matching expressions of guilt and surprise. you stood in the doorway, arms crossed, your gaze moving between them with an expression that wasn’t quite anger but certainly wasn’t amusement either.
“are you two seriously arguing over me?” you asked, your tone sharp.
“uh,” sirius started, but you held up a hand to silence him.
“don’t bother denying it,” you said. “i heard everything.”
remus cleared his throat, looking thoroughly embarrassed. “it wasn’t… well, i suppose it was…”
“pathetic,” you finished for him, shaking your head. “do you even hear yourselves? fighting over who ‘gets’ to ask me out, as if i’m some prize to be won. did it ever occur to either of you to, i don’t know, ask if i’m even interested?”
sirius opened his mouth, but you didn’t give him the chance to speak. “for the record, i’m not,” you said firmly, your eyes narrowing at both of them. “not in either of you.”
remus looked like he wanted to sink into the floor, and sirius actually winced, which would’ve been satisfying if you weren’t so irritated.
“i know what you were like in school,” you continued, your tone colder now. “the way you treated people who didn’t fit into your little group. you think i’d forget that? you think he would?”
remus blinked, and sirius frowned. “he? who’s…”
“oh, for merlin’s sake, snape,” you snapped, crossing your arms tighter. “the man you bullied relentlessly for years. the man who, by the way, happens to be my boyfriend.”
the silence that followed was almost deafening. sirius’s jaw actually dropped, and remus looked like he’d been slapped.
“snape?” sirius repeated, his voice a mixture of disbelief and horror. “you’re dating snivellus?”
your glare could’ve frozen fire. “call him that again, and you’ll regret it.”
remus held up a hand, his expression somewhere between awkward and apologetic. “i think what sirius means is… we didn’t know.”
“no,” you said flatly. “you didn’t. because neither of you bothered to pay attention to anything other than your own egos. maybe if you had, you’d realize i’m not the kind of person who’d fall for a pair of self-absorbed gits who spent their youth making someone else’s life miserable.”
sirius opened his mouth again, but remus wisely elbowed him before he could speak.
“i think we owe you an apology,” remus said quietly, his tone genuine.
you studied him for a moment before giving a small nod. “you do. and him too.”
with that, you turned on your heel and walked out of the room, leaving them standing there in stunned silence.
“snape,” sirius muttered under his breath, shaking his head. “bloody hell.”
“you deserved that,” remus said simply, and sirius shot him a glare.
“like you didn’t?”
neither of them argued after that.

Sully!family with your children HEADCANONS (1)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
⇀ When The Time Comes AU!
-
Jake and Neytiri:
They would both be oh so happy to see their first grandchild for the first time.
Jake would feel himself getting a little old at the news of your bearing, but he would be happy nevertheless.
He can feel his forehead creases triple in amount each him he’s on babysitting duty. He’s had too many children to care for and it’s taking a toll on our poor man.
Neytiri’s the best grandma bye.
She will feed that baby until it gets a chubby lil stomach.
Jake wanted to murder mo’rata, your mate after hearing that you were pregnant.
Like he accepts that the both of you are adults and adults just can’t keep their hands off of each other but nuh uh not with his daughter.
Neytiri understands what it’s like to be a tired mom, so now that nearly all of her children have left her tent to their own, she offers to take care of your baby once in a while.
Jake carves new toys for them because their hand-down ones are lowkey crusty.
He WILL tell your children about the great Toruk Makto.
it feeds his pride as a parent to see your children so engrossed in his stories.
Your children loves Neytiri’s cooking, probably more than yours.
Lo’ak
Eywa, please fear leaving your child with him for even one day.
Your child probably thinks he’s the most fun out of all of their aunts and uncles.
Brings your kid out on adventures.
Probs tells your child to never listen to their father because he didn’t and look at how amazingly he turned out.
Most probably will get in deep shit with your mate afterwards😭
Your children love him so much it’s insane.
Doesn’t teach your kids to be reckless like him tho, that shit nearly killed him too many times.
Ngl he’ll probably have beef with children that your children have beef with. ���
Like full on arguing in public and all.
Winds up your children so much like they’re fucking dogs with pent up energy💀.
When he brings them back at the end of the day, one of hanging halfway on his shoulder and the other has their body dangling off his arms.
You’re happy though because sleepy children=calm evening.
Would call you and Mo’rata rabbits if you have many children.
If you all move to Awa’atlu together, your kids are the ones to tease him and tsireya. She loves your children bye.
Your kids are probably lo’aks wingmen or wingwomen.
they all practiced this cool ass walk-in intro thing to do when tsireya walks in the room.
He tries to play the cool guy act by swinging your children each at the same time on his shoulders just to impress her.
It fails though because he underestimated how fast they grew and how heavy they are now.
They all fall face first in the sand but it’s ok because it entertained tsireya.
mission accomplished.
Kiri
She loves taking your child in the forest with her.
Don’t think she’s interested in having children of her own for now, but she’ll spoil and love the hell outta yours.
Shows your children her Pandora jesus powers and they’re lowkey so entranced.
She probably charms wild animals that won’t harm your children into playing with them. Like a yerik.
Now that Tuk is too big to appreciate spending time with her sister (angsty teenager era who?), she loves spending it with your children like she used to with Tuk.
Doesnt mean that they replaced her little sister’s place in her heart, never.
She teaches your kids about nature and that they need to respect it.
She always reassures them that it’s ok to have 5 fingers and a pair of eyebrows <3
Neteyam
Best uncle (in yours and mo’rata’s opinion)
Most reliable babysitter that’s always up to the job.
He’ll probably be mated too at this point, so him and his mate always have some entertainment in watching your children while you and your mate escape on a date.
He’ll be happy if you don’t have a whole football team of babies for him to babysit.
He had to take care of his 3 siblings (plus you even tho you were older) growing up, and he still has nightmares about it.
Your youngest child is a troublemaker like lo’ak, and it gives poor Neteyam ptsd.
Teaches your eldest how to wield a bow just so they can be a badass older sibling like him.
mo’rata would be so mad when he heard that Neteyam was the one that had taught his child how to shoot an arrow. That’s his job as a hunter and a father and he might as well go and murder your little brother.
Tuk
She’s not a kid anymore but she’s probably still young.
You refuse to give her any babysitting duties because you want her to live her youth without having to take care of little ones like you had to with your siblings.
She never grew up with little siblings given that she was the youngest. So she adores your children.
Will give them her old toys. Toys that have been carved for you at first, then passed down to neteyam, kiri, Lo’ak and then herself.
Tuk is sorta traumatized after everything that went on with quaritch so she relives the years that she’s closed off as a kid with her nieces and nephews.
Takes your children on her Ikran only for you to scold her when she comes back. She’s still your baby sister after all so you’re allowed
Mo’at
probs dead atp i’m not even gon’ lie to y’all.

Rosie & Alastor hcs <3 (platonic)
Gossip girlys. They drink tea while spilling the tea.
Burn book. They have a burn book. It is 90% Susan content
Rosie is the only one Alastor likes being called pet names from. He HATES it otherwise. She calls him things like "darling" "my dear (my deer)" "love" "sweetie/sweetheart" and he adores it
Cheek and forehead kisses. They are big on those, its a special way of them showing physical affection in a way that doesn't gross alastor out
Alastor will rant to Rosie about Lucifer for HOURS (rosie is having a hard time deciding whether or not alastor is in love or if he actually just hates the guy)
Cooking besties. Rosie is hellborn and alastor is a sinner, so they teach each other about the special foods of their respective cultures. Rosie loves learning about Alastors mamas Jambalaya.
They would kill for each other
Alastor knows that Hellborns arnt immortal like Sinners are, and he knows that Rosie is going to die someday. He dreads that day with every fiber of his being.
Sleepovers. They sit on Rosie's bed while doing eachothers hair and watching soap opreas.
Alastor owns thousands of souls, but Husk and Nifty are the ones that he talks to/summons the most, which has lead Rosie to getting to know them. They both call Rosie "Auntie Rosie" and she loves them like grandchildren even though husk is the same age as her
Rosie dislikes being alone and is also afraid of the dark, so Alastor made her a little nightlight made out of his magic. She always feels like she is with him due to this
They tell each other things that they wouldn't DARE tell another soul. They know each others deepest fears and biggest wishes. Rosie even knows about Alastors contract with (unknown person)
Snuggling. Rosie is a big cuddle bug and usually drags Alastor into cuddle sessions (he pretends to hate it (he doesnt))
They are book worms and can sit in each other's company for hours, in silence, happily reading. Its one of their favorite past times.
Rosie is the #1 fangirl of Alastors broadcast
Alastor is the model when Rosie is making new clothes (he has been in a dress so many times due to this)
Rosie got a phone once and Alastor found out. They didn't talk for a solid 5 months after that
They rarely argue but when they do. Hooo boy. You better run.
They love to dance together & listen to music
Rosie can spot Alastor out of a huge crowd because she has kinda trained herself to hear his radio static noise that he constantly has
Alastoe can't keep a plant alive for the life of him. Rosie has to help him keep his bedroom Bayou thing alive.
They NEVER step foot in the Vees district of Pentigram City, but they had to cross through it one time. Never again. Never.
Rosie loves the drama that Vox and Alastor are constantly broadcasting across all of PC
I do hc requests!!!

Satosugu x reader please? Reader bruises easily, with bruises covering your body, mostly legs with bruises, both old / healing and new. Everytime they see you, you have a new bruise and when asked where you got it from, reader would just say she doesnt know nonchalantly. Satosugu concerned whether the bruises hurt or not? About how and why are you not feeling these bruises? Overly worried, they keep asking you to get checked - in their minds, you either have a terminal blood disorder or life threathening nerve problems. Stubborn reader refusing to go get at the botoot of the bruises which leaves SatoSugo extremely frustrated
I know this took a really long time, but I got it done! Thank you for your patience! You can take your pick at who the reader has a romance with.
No Reason Needed
Gojo Satoru x Reader / Geto Suguru x Reader
“We’re taking you to see Shoko.”
You weren’t given a moment to process, let alone protest the declaration, before you were slung across a shoulder with no consideration of your will.
“Be careful Satoru,” the supposedly less forceful of the two warned, keeping up with his friend’s fast pace, “we don’t want to bruise her anymore than she already is.”
“Eh one more won’t kill her,” you felt your assailant readjust you, “the brat won’t even tell us where they’re coming from.”
“That’s because they. Just. Appear,” you wriggled around trying to get free, “it’s a normal phenomenon! Everyone gets random bruises.”
“No,” you tried to look at your other friend who was just following, “at least not this consistently-or frequently.”
“Unless…” you swore these two shared a brain or were telepathic. 
You weren’t covering as much ground as you were before, and a silence settled in around the three of you. You pushed yourself up by digging your hands into his back, hoping to catch a glimpse of Gojo’s expression. Unable to see much, you resorted to verbalizing your curiosity, “unless?”
His hold on you tightened slightly, with him deliberately jostling you, leaving you to knock your nose into his back as your arm slipped. They heard your pained yelp but completely ignored it. 
“Hey Satoru,” your attempt to chew out the pain-in-the-butt that tried to break your nose was interrupted by the kidnapping assistant who moved in closer to the two of you, “who would leave hickeys on someone’s calves and knees?”
“Suguru,” the white haired freak of nature that was carrying you around like a sack of potatoes groaned, “don’t go acting so innocent,” he readjusted you again, “just the other day I saw you staring at-”
“I told you I wasn’t staring, I was zoned out!”
“How convenient.”
“Oh shut up.”
“Then,” you felt a squeeze on your waist, “are these hickies? Who do we have to beat up?”
“Hickies?!” Of all the things this absolute idiot could have come up with?!
“See? Like I said, they’re not hickies.”
“I don’t know, with how she’s reacting I’d say they absolutely are,” you could hear Satoru insist, “who the heck do you think you’re seeing without our approval?”
That was the last straw. You flailed your legs about, trying to wiggle out of his grasp, while pushing away from him with your arms.
“Oi! Stop that! You’re going to fall!” He readjusted his grip so that he was holding your legs down. 
“This is your fault for insisting she’s sleeping with someone!”
“Eh? He could just be giving her hickies without going any farther!”
“You should listen to Suguru you bleached giant!” You kept flailing and struggling against the insensitive jerk. “How dare you? Like hell I’d let some random dumbass touch me like that.”
“You’re letting me touch you.”
“Satoru!”
“You literally kidnapped me, you friggin’ telephone pole!”
“Pfft telephone pole.”
“Oi Suguru.”
“Then where are these bruises coming from you damn peach?”
“Peach?”
“You bruise like a peach!”
“It’s a normal phenomenon!”
“At the frequency they’re showing up and with your lifestyle it is not,” it was the ‘kinder’ of the two who was arguing with you now, “so we’re taking you to see Shoko.”
“Fine,” you relented, “but only because it’s Shoko.”
-_-
“Why’re you bringing her to me?” Shoko casually drawled, swirling a lollipop around her mouth, “I’m not a real doctor yet,” she blinked at the three of you blankly, “I can’t ask for tests or anything.”
“Eh?!” There was something deeply satisfying about their outrage. It must be the fact that they’ve been humiliated. 
“But you’re the one who told us to bring her to you,” Satoru whined, readjusting you on his shoulder.
“I told you to take her to a doctor,” she returned.
“I remember you telling us to bring her to you,” you turned to see your friend with the funny bangs gesture at Shoko in emphasis.
“Yeah,” the, arguably most responsible of this trio of jujutsu sorcerers rebutted, “if she didn’t cooperate with you with going to the doctor.”
“Ehh?” The human snowflake continued. “Well we’re already here so you deal with it,” you were unceremoniously dropped off of his shoulder next to the doctor to be.
“Gently Satoru! Gently!”
“So,” she drawled, turning  to you and gently removing the lollipop from her mouth, “you gave them grief about going to see the doctor?”
“No,” you shook your head, “I was thrown-“
“Yes!” Oh no. They were agreeing now.
“This bleached bean pole,” you gestured at the tall, blue-eyed freak of nature, “just threw me over his shoulder and dragged me here” 
“You brat!” Satoru was pinching and pulling at your cheeks.
“You never said anything about a doctor!” You managed to grumble out before Gojo squished your cheeks into a fish face.
“We did say we were going to see Shoko,” weird bangs unhelpfully rejoined the conversation.
“When?”
“When we picked you up.”
“Guess I couldn’t hear you over the sound of the blood rushing to my head, when you threw me over your shoulder.”
“Brat.”
“Takes one to know one.”
“Now, now,” you both turned towards your shared friend, “there’s no need to fight over what happened,” he decided to end that pointless argument, “let’s just go to the nearest clinic and get some bloodwork done.”
“Urgh,” both you and your annoying adversary achieved a momentary truce.
“Always acting so mature, like you aren’t our age,” you grumbled under your breath.
“You see what I have to deal with everyday?”
“Oi.”
-_-
Thanks to Shoko, you all managed to get back on track and went to a nearby clinic. As most things involving the yin and yang duo are, it was an eventful trip. First, they fought the doctor. Much like you had: the doctor dismissed your situation and their concerns. Neither one was having it, and after insulting the doctor, his practice, and his hairdo, then exorcizing a level 2.5 cursed spirit, they dragged you to the next clinic.
Thankfully at the next clinic you were met with a lady doctor and Shoko kicked the boys out so she could do the explaining in peace. After the doctor explained that the boys’ concerns were founded: you could have a genetic thing, vitamin deficiency, or liver damage (the least likely but you never know), she proceeded to ask you a lot of questions. After she was done taking your medical history she gave you a long list of tests that you needed to get done and directed you to the nearest lab.
You did not appreciate nor enjoy the choruses of “told you so”-es and “this is why you should listen to us”-es that came about as Shoko explained what had happened while the four of you navigated to the nearest laboratory.
They made sure your walk to the lab wasn’t boring with their gloating and jeering, yes jeering: both special grade menaces were talking about how they could hold your hand if you were scared of needles. Okay Satoru was nastier for sure, but Suguru was not to be underestimated, he enabled the bean pole. Jokes on them, even if you were afraid you would hold Shoko’s hand because she wasn’t rude like them.
In the end Satoru and Suguru were too busy bickering over whether or not to actually hold your hand, meaning you got called a brat, a baby, among other things, while Shoko stood and watched the nurse’s technique as your blood was collected for testing. The nurse was nice enough, finding some kind of amusement about friends and youth caring for each other. By the time Suguru finished debating Satoru to come and hold your hand for moral support you were already being bandaged. Which of course resulted in the obnoxious giant bursting out laughing and getting himself kicked out.
Thanks to the doctor-to-be you all got treated to some sweets by the noisiest of you all, who was also the wealthiest, who was of course the strongest: the Gojo Satoru.
-_-
“It’s just a vitamin deficiency,” the doctor gave you a tired grin, “and some anemia - your levels are borderline, so increasing your iron intake will help.”
Well that was a relief. The doctor’s demeanor seemed to express the same relief you felt.
“And? What does she have to do to fix that?”
“What he means doctor, is,” it was kind of fascinating how ugly the expressions your rude white-haired friend could make with his pretty face - especially when directed at your other friend, “what would you prescribe to treat the deficiency?”
“Well you can take supplements,” the doctor began, before looking towards the ceiling, “but the best thing for you to do would be to eat food rich in the nutrients you’re lacking,” she looked towards her computer.
“I’m going to prescribe iron supplements,” she typed away, “these are the chewable kind to make your life easier. I advise taking them and drinking some kind of citrus juice afterwards. Be sure to not have anything with dairy or caffeine two hours before taking them and for two hours after taking them to get the maximum benefit.”
You nodded diligently, ignoring the scowling nuisance that had followed you to your followup. The doctor proceeded to also give you multiple lists of foods that you should work into your diet, at the incessant questioning from your duo of overpowered friends, she even gave you suggestions for quantities, food combinations, and even timings. You could tell she was torn between being annoyed and being understanding - they weren’t unnecessary or even bad questions, just that their delivery kind of sucked…whenever Satoru was the one asking.
Either way everything she mentioned was also put into a neat note and given to you alongside the iron pill prescription and a reminder to run blood tests after three months of doing all she told you to do. The craziest part of the entire consultation though had to be her handing you her card and telling you to come back and find her for the follow up, just by yourself this time.
They were so very affronted. You were so very amused.
-_-
“Where do you think you’re going?”
“Home?” You frowned at your more difficult friend.
“Not so fast,” to your surprise it was the guy who ate curses that was stopping you, “let’s stop by the pharmacy and get the supplements.”
“I didn’t bring enough money for that,” you scowled at him, “I’ll get them on my way home from school tomorrow.”
“You,” the dark haired teen froze, “seriously?”
“Seriously,” you nodded, “besides it’s mostly just diet changes,” you waved the prescription documents around, “so all I have to really do is talk to my mom and figure out a meal-”
Your words were cut off as the precious packet was unceremoniously snatched from between your fingers. You turned to stare at the paper snatcher, his ridiculous glasses sitting lower on the bridge of his nose as he studied the words on the papers. He grabbed the smaller slip from the packet and handed you the papers back.
You watched him as he went through the documents, his glasses resting lower on his nose leaving his pretty eyes and pretty lashes out for everyone to see. He was so pretty. It kind of pissed you off.
Okay, fine, you were jealous. You’d admit it.
“I can see you trying to curse me,” he commented, handing you back your packet.
Minus one paper.
The one with the prescription for iron supplements.
Your stomach dropped. Please please please let your instincts be wrong. Please let your logic be wrong. “Satoru,” you extended your hand out to receive the paper, “my prescription.”
He proceeded to ignore you and pull out his phone, asking all the while, “hey Suguru, where’s the nearest pharmacy?”
“I think I saw one not too far away,” oh gosh, of course he wouldn’t side with you on this one. In fact this guy hasn’t sided with you much at all for the entirety of this whole ‘see a doctor for your bruises’ debacle!
“Satoru!” You tried again. “Give it back! I can’t get the supplements tomorrow if I don’t know which ones to get!”
The giant turned to sneer in your direction, his face speaking for him, “read the room dumbass.”
Your eyes blew wide out of your sockets. You turned to the one you could appeal to the empathy of - given he actually had some, unlike some people! “Suguru, help, please.”
It was a mistake to appeal to him. A massive mistake.
“Isn’t it better to just get it out of the way now?” He unfortunately made reasonable requests in reasonable tones. Urgh.
“No,” you insisted, “I want to buy them with my own money.”
“You can just pay Satoru back,” your friend shrugged, “it’s not like he’ll charge you interest.”
“But I don’t -”
“Ne Suguru, I’ll be right back,” oh please no, “keep an eye on the brat for me.”
“Hey! Satoru!” You swore, this guy. “Give it back!” You tried to chase after him, but he actually activated his infinity leaving you to fight against a repulsive force.
“Satoru!”
“You’re making a really big deal out of this,” you heard your designated carekeeper hum, “it’s unlike you.”
“I don’t like owing people things.”
“Ouch,” he winced a pout claiming his features, “I thought we were friends.”
“All the more reason not to burden you,” you bit back.
“Oh!” Realization struck him then. “You feel guilty don’t you?”
You pressed your lips together, looking away as you flexed your fingers into a fist and released them repeatedly.
“Ah I’m right on the mark aren’t I?” He sounded mildly pleased with himself.
“I don’t want to owe Satoru,” you mumbled, “there’s no way to pay him back.”
You turned to face Suguru when you heard him let out a long sigh, “yeah,” he was looking out in the direction your shared friend had gone, “I’m sure it feels that way for you.”
Tsk.
Of course things would be different for Suguru who was essentially on the same level as the blessed special grade sorcerer. Was it really a blessing though? You frowned.
“Satoru won’t ever say this out loud,” your attention was once again recaptured by the more sociable half of the duo, “but sometimes company is enough.”
He looked like he had more to say with how he wasn’t looking at you, “if he’s being considerate of you like this,” he gave you a small smile, “it means he likes having you around.”
Really? He always called you a brat and teased you. Then again you two did have fun when it came to discussing popular games that were currently around.
“Then why’s he always so annoying?”
That got a chuckle out of the dark haired teen, “that’s just how he shows his concern, it’s not just you.” 
“But he’s concerned over something so small,” you lifted your arm up to stare at one of the random bruises you’d acquired, “it’s so silly.”
“I’m concerned too, you know?” Oh he was pouting again. “I wish you wouldn’t forget about me.”
“Sorry,” you huffed.
“It’s okay, I’ve always known you preferred Satoru over me,” talk about a drama queen.
You rolled your eyes and nudged him, “you can only say that because you know that isn’t true.”
“But you’re more upset over owing Satoru than owing me,” he raised a thin brow at you.
“That’s because he’s impossible!” You threw your hands out exasperatedly. “You have basic decency and would find a way to let me make it up to you!” You continued to explain. “Without all the added fanfare!”
That got a full blown laugh out of the man then, “I see, I see,” he nodded.
As laughter often is, his laugh was infectious and you couldn’t help the smile that lifted your lips upwards.
“You know,” he put a hand on your head, “friends don’t need big reasons to be concerned about each other,” the warmth with which he looked at you was as infectious as his earlier laughter, “I worry about Satoru too, he can be really rude.”
You let out an amused huff looking away, “you better be able to say that to his face.”
“Oh I do,” he pat your head, “but anyway,” you looked at him again as he continued to just pet you, “being concerned is a sign people care,” he paused, making sure to look you in the eye, “and not taking care of yourself and dismissing them is rude to them.”
It was your turn to pout. You moved out from under his hand, while looking away. He wasn’t wrong though. You knew that. He probably knew that you knew that.
With a defeated sigh, you finally let up, “you’re right.”
“Heeeh?” Your face snapped back to the topic of your conversation, “so you’re only a brat with me then?” 
“No!” You huffed petulantly crossing your arms, before a better idea struck. “What can I say? You bring out the worst in me.” 
“Now, now,” you turned back to your other friend you gave you a look that clearly said: “now what did we just talk about?”
Taking a deep breath you turned back to look at the incredibly tall, and seemingly secretly kind boy you’d somehow befriended.
“Here,” he tossed you the bag with the supplements and the prescription paper, “be sure to take them.”
The look Suguru was giving you was enough for you to suck your lips in and keep from saying anything unkind.
“Hey Satoru,” you began.
“Hah?”
“Thank you,” you glanced up at him then away.
“Eh?” He sneered. “You’re paying me back for those you know.”
You and Suguru shared a sigh then.
“Satoru.”

HII im a huge fan of ur writing and ur one of the few final fantasy writers on here thats active 😭😭 i was hoping i could request some zack fair fluff? like before the events of crisis core, maybe he accidentally gets himself sick during work and angeal knows he'll just keep showing up for work bc he wants the promotion to first class so bad, so he gets zacks childhood bestfriend (reader) to go keep an eye on him and make sure he actually rests lol. zack keeps insisting hes ok but reader is having none of it and takes care of him, which eventually leads to a confession bc zack doesnt understand why reader cares so much and it just leads to everything coming out. i hope that made sense lol this is my first request :) dont feel pressured to do this of course!!!
Since We Were Kids
Tumblr media
pairing : zack fair x (female) reader
summary : zack is determined to reach first class. so much so that he will push through one of the most debilitating cold's he's ever had. angeal attempts to get him home, calling in zacks childhood best friend for help.
Tumblr media
“Angeal! Come on! You know how important this is to me..” Zack lets out a pitiful whine, attempting to persuade his superior, before his whine turns into a horrific coughing fit. He doesn’t have to look up now that Angeal’s face has made no changes, he is stoic and his decision is final, Zack will not be staying for work this week. 
“You can take a week off.. Besides you're of no use to anybody with the state you're in. Go home, get some rest.”
“Fine..” 
“I mean it Zack..” 
“Yeah..yeah..i heard ya.” Zack crosses his arms, heavy sigh passing through his lips, eyebrows furrowing as he walks away from where Angeal stands. He was barely sick..a little cough wasn’t gonna hold him back from becoming a first class SOLDIER.
Zack barely lasts 20 minutes away from his training before his sword is back in his hands. His constant coughing fits are feeling him with annoyance but he powers through them to continue swinging away with the chunk of metal in his hands. 
But why was he so tired? He usually had so much energy. Why was his sword so hard to carry? It never had been before.. 
And why did it feel like someone's hand was on his shoulder? “Zack!”
He jumps away when there is suddenly shouting coming from beside him, his head pounding in a way that wasn't noticeable until this moment, “Angeal! Hey pal..what’re you..uh..doing here?”
“What’re you doing here? I told you to go home.” 
“I can’t go home, this is too important, I’m not even that sick..” Even Zack’s faith in the statement is beginning to falter, especially when his eyes become blurry from the dizziness pooling at the front of his head. 
“Go home.” 
“No way!” Zack expects Angeal to disagree again but he doesn’t, he actually doesn't say anything, he just walks away. It’s so out of character that Zack debates just listening to him and leaving so he doesn’t get demoted, but he decides against it and continues to practice while sweat pools on his skin. 
It doesn’t take long for Angeal to return, Zack isn't worried when he hears his heavy footsteps from down the hallway, but he is unaware of the other pair of feet following close behind.
At this point, Zack is just staying for spite, his body is exhausted and he is barely swinging his sword, and his coughing fits are becoming more frequent to the point where he has to stop moving to take deep breaths. 
“Zack. Enough is enough. Your friend can take you home now.”
“Huh?” Zack turns and almost starts coughing again, but only because the breath hitches in his throat, you shouldn’t be here, you shouldn’t be seeing him like this. It’s pitiful, his inability to stay strong for training is embarrassing, and your gaze full of pity isn;t helping in the way it usually does. 
“She’s taking you home.” Zack opens his mouth to argue once more but Angeal has had enough, “No arguing. My decision is final, if I see you here again before I say you can return I will demote you myself, good luck reaching first class then..”
Zack looks defeated but he closes his mouth, and drops his sword with a loud clang, before trudging towards your side with his arms crossed tightly. His mannerisms make a giggle slip out of you, he looks like a child, but you quickly mask it as a cough when he shoots you a serious glare. Also reminiscent of a child but if you laughed again he might punch you. 
He isn’t happy about having to leave, especially being escorted out by a lady half his size, but he doesn’t make any complaints when you intertwine your arm in his to keep him stable. 
“I’m fine, y’know. I’m only going home because Angeal made me.” You nod along with him as he talks, hiding the disbelief running through your head. God was this kid stubborn, but it made you happy to know that his training hadn't changed the way he was when you were kids.  
“Zack, you need to rest..” 
“I need to reach first class.” 
“How do you expect to do that if you can’t even hold your sword up, dork.” His face scrunches up, but to your surprise he doesn’t pull his body away, he actually does the opposite and pulls your arm closer to his body. He’s using you to hold up a large amount of his body weight, but you allow him as long as he needs. 
When you finally reach Zack’s home, it takes more effort to get him into bed then you’d care to admit, he truly acts like a child insisting that he ‘doesn’t need to get any sleep because he feels perfectly fine’ followed by a coughing fit and him having to sit down because he feels dizzy. You promise him the soup that he likes if he gets into bed, to which he begrudgingly agrees to. 
After practically forcing food down his throat, he finally allows himself to be tired and his head falls back onto the pillows. You place a cold cloth on his forehead, after feeling it with your own hands and deciding that his fever might only be worsening. How’d he keep training while being this sick? 
You watch as he dozes off, you can tell he is trying to stay awake so he doesn’t fully admit that he is sick, but his body is taking over. He finally looks at peace, even though his hair is sticking to his forehead and his breathing is heavy, at least he’s getting some rest.
You plan on leaving, really you do, but you get so caught up in the image of him sleeping that you find your own eyes falling closed, head resting by his side against the bed. 
When your eyes open again it’s dark outside, you can’t tell how long you’ve been sitting with him but from the darkness pouring into the room, it’s longer then you meant for. You worry for a moment, worry that you’ve overstayed your welcome and that Zack got up hours ago to sleep away from you, but when you turn the lamp on beside his bed you find him in the same spot you’d left him. 
You’re greedy with how you look at him, you miss being so close to him. The proximity makes you realize how much you’ve missed him since he started his training, you hardly see him. And you wish the circumstances for finally seeing him again weren't because he was sick, and rather because he actually wanted to see you. But you’d take any time you could get with your best friend. 
He stirs suddenly and you let your hand fall on top of his, tangling your fingers in his, as a way to bring him some comfort in his sleep. His skin is warm and clammy, heating up your hands, it should be gross but the feeling of his hand in yours fills your stomach with a flurry of butterflies.
Slowly, his eyes flutter open and you can tell he is dazed, the way he scans the room to gather his surroundings before landing on you once more confirms your thoughts. 
“Y/n?” Zack’s voice is hoarse, causing him to clear his throat before he continues talking, “What’re you still doing here? How long have you been here?”
For a minute your heart pumps inside your chest faster than before, nervousness building in your stomach, “I’m sorry..I fell asleep a couple..hours ago I think. I didn’t want to leave right away in case you woke up again but I never meant to fall asleep.” 
“Why’re you apologizing..” His fingers, which you had forgotten were tangled in your own, tense against your skin and tighten their grip on your hand. 
“Sorry..” 
Your second apology causes him to let out a laugh. A laugh that immediately has him sitting up because he coughs so hard his lungs hurt, and he squeezes your hand tighter in his lap while he tries to catch a breath. 
When he finally catches a break, taking deep breaths while your hand slides up and down his back, he looks at you pitifully, “You’re gonna get sick..go home.” 
“You're crazy if you think I'm going home. I’m not leaving, who’s gonna take care of you?” 
“I can take care of myself, you know..”
“This is news to me.” You raise an eyebrow at him, to which he responds by sticking his tongue out tiredly. He can’t even retort like he usually does. He doesn't have the energy to argue and tell you to leave so you don’t get sick, Zack isn’t even sure he wants you to leave anymore. 
“You don’t have to stay..” 
“I want to, Zack. I care about you.” You can’t tell if his cheeks were already flushed or if they suddenly became red as you spoke to him, but either way you were sure your face was mirroring his.  
He falls back onto the pillows, asking you quietly if you'll get him some water and another blanket before he gets the chills, and you happily oblige. Even while he’s sick, he is able to feel content and you’re happy to be the reason. 
Zack's fingers find your hand again, squeezing gently as you sit on the chair beside him, “..Training is kicking my ass.” 
“Yeah..but I’m sure it’ll be all worth it eventually,” You try not to let his spirits get down especially while he is in such a tired state, his training put on pause because of his sickness, and you ponder telling him more, “I miss you, you know..a lot.”
A small smile appears on his face, eyes puffy and bags under his eyes, and he looks towards you, “Yeah?” 
You can only nod, embarrassed by his lack of affirmation that he has felt the same over the months he’s been training. 
“I missed you too..” And the embarrassment flees from your body instantaneously, while his thumb rubs over the top of your knuckles. 
The two of you sit in silence for a while, him playing with your knuckles as he tries to hold back the aggressive coughs that threaten to leave his mouth. His head is pounding, and he should feel like shit, but he truly can’t bring himself to when you're looking into his eyes all concerned and you’re letting him play with your hands with no complaints.
“Why’d you stay?” His voice startles you, and you try to pretend that you weren't staring at him and admiring every detail of his face. 
“I already told you..” You roll your eyes, letting out a huff before leaning on the palm of your hand, in all honesty you were ready to doze off while Zack looked around your hands and face. 
“No..no..why’d you stick around?” His question confuses you and you have to think about what he might mean and then it clicks. You hadn’t realized that he might be aware of how much time his training takes up. It hadn’t occurred to you that Zack could focus on anything but becoming first class.
He’d been neglecting your friendship, but when Angeal rang and asked you to pick Zack up you agreed without hesitation, you forgot instantly about how angry his schedule made you. 
You’re not sure how to answer him. You could tell him the truth, that you had been madly in love with your black haired friend since you were children.
Or you could continue to lie, and claim that you had only stayed around because of your long lasting friendship that had absolutely no underlying romantic feelings that neither one of you could talk about. 
“C’mon Zack..” 
He stares into your eyes, right through you. He knows, he already knows, you don’t have to say anything to him. As he looks at you, he's pleading with you to admit it to him and it makes your stomach crawl with nervousness. 
“Y’know I’d do anything for you..been like that since we were kids.” His eyebrows furrow at your attempt to dodge an admission that you hadn’t been prepared for an hour ago, you still weren't ready to admit to him that you were in love with him. 
“Y/n..do you love me?” 
Again silence fills the room and you’re unsure what to say to the expectant boy. You think, for a second, that he's joking. But his eyes are filled with such sincerity and genuine interest. He wants to know, and he doesn't seem to care if his question comes off bluntly.
When you don’t immediately respond he continues in your place, “Because I think I’m in love with you and I know I’d do anything for you. And I think you feel the same way. I can’t think of any other reason why you wouldn't ignore Angeal’s call, and tell me to deal with this by myself. I know I haven't been around like I should be. But you’re here anyway..”
“Zack please..of course I do. Been like that since we were kids,” You smile softly, repeating yourself and look down at your entangled hands.
He doesn’t let that allow that for very long before he is grabbing your chin to turn your head to face him once more, “I’m not gonna kiss you, because I don't want you getting sick. But I promise you, as soon as this sickness is gone I’m gonna be all over you..” 
Even though his words, words you would've never expected to hear when you dragged him into his room just hours earlier, send a nervous shiver down your body you still find a way to tease him, “Careful Zack. Get too excited and your lungs might act up again.”
“Can I ask you to stay the night?” 
How could you ever say no. 
“Of course, Zack, anything for my first class SOLDIER.”

>>my bad kids overstimulation hcs<<
gorgug and adaine both get extremely scared when there's a loud noise. they will scream if they're caught off guard.
Fig needs COMPLETE QUIET in order to focus on her work (which is why she's failing since she refuses to stop listening to music for anything)
Fabian almost never gets overstimulated, so when he does the floodgates open and it's ALL THE EMOTIONS
all of the bad kids HATE talking to strangers. They've gotten better at it through their quests but when they're tired they still revert back to their default settings. (fabian, gorgug and kristen don't HATE it, but still don't like it) but they all deal with it in different ways
Adaine just freezes and goes semiverbal. Mostly nods and headshakes, Kristen covers for her by excessively talking and saying things she... maybe doesn't mean.
Fig gets REALLY aggressive and just starts thinking of MURDER. If she's silent, she's thinking about murder
Kristen wasn't really allowed to stim in their house because their parents would accuse her of faking mental illness (or insinuate Helio could heal them) so now (especially when they're overwhelmed) Kristen cannot stop stimming.
Every. Single. One of them has PTSD to some degree or another. Comes with the territory of being an adventurer and having to deal with some really fucked up stuff on the regular.
Adaines dad used to slam his hands on tables or slam doors shut when he was mad. It always triggered a panic attack instantly and he would berate Adaine and make it worse before storming off and leaving her to suffer alone.
Loud noises in Gorgugs house always meant that something had gone wrong in his parents workshop. He was in the room once when something exploded and his dad got pretty badly burned. Digby was healed up almost instantly but it's a pretty formative memory for Gorgug and he still doesnt like loud noises all that much.
Fig needs quiet to zone in but feels anxious without background noise so listens to music anyway. If she didnt have music playing in her room when her horns first started showing she could hear her parents arguing downstairs so the music was mostly to drown them out. She finds it easier to focus if she's listening to something quiet without lyrics so her 'do work now' playlist is all instrumental.
Fabian can get overstimulated by tight clothing or being restrained. Reminds him too much of falling in Leviathan and getting tangled up in all the washing lines. Especially doesnt like things tight around his throat because of how close a couple of them were to choking him. Tried to wear a turtleneck when it was cold once, lasted about two hours before he took a pair of scissors to the neckline of the sweater in a panic to get it away from his throat.
They try to keep their interactions with strangers to a minimum if possible. If they're specifically there to ask questions and get answers it's Rizs job (with a couple bardics thrown in to cover for his terrible charisma score) because he can do an interogation better than anyone else. Plus he's good at telling when people are lying to him. Otherwise it's Fabian and Fig who are the ones in charge of talking (though they tend to get very off topic if not given a specific goal).
They gave Kristen one of those spinny rings to wear when they noticed she would pick at her skin when overwhelmed. It gives her hands something to do so she doesnt hurt herself.

RANDOM STRAW HAT PIRATES HEADCANONS. . .
★an: sometimes i like to smoke a jo!nt & let my imagination go craaaazy
★ warnings: 18+ (just because i’m not sure how this is gonna go), mentions of some of my fav music artists, they might be ooc but i love them and they give me comfort <3
Tumblr media
★ i feel like if international kpop girl group TWICE was canon to the one piece series, i definitely think the straw hats — more specifically: nami, luffy, sanji, usopp, brook, chopper & franky — would all be onces…nami & sanji having them as their ult group, chopper & usopp would be a casual listeners (they know their names & their group positions but they wouldn’t be too caught up with them like those ^ two), franky & luffy not really caring for them just enjoying the vibes & music, and brook has actually met them before…they must’ve been confused. as for zoro & robin, they’re like siblings who don’t care for them at all actually (though robin does enjoy hearing nami yap about them) but know their songs because of how often the straw hats blast their discography during celebrations. as for jinbei, he’s just happy the youngins can enjoy their lives accompanied by good music (he does enjoy their song doughnut)
★ i’m sooooooo sure nami spills tea to zoro. i feel like she just yaps to him whenever they share a drink together, telling him everything and anything, and he just sits there and listens. doesn’t really say anything back but zoro genuinely enjoys it, because he likes to be aware of people and places. he never spills a word to anyone else, just stores the information away for later.
★ jinbei secretly covers for the boys (luffy usopp chopper zoro) whenever sanji catches them in the act of sneaking into the kitchen late at night. at first, sanji genuinely believed him, but time after time, he realizes that jinbei cannot be possibly sending them — all of them, at once — to fetch a quick glass of water. sanji allows jinbei to keep saving their asses, only because hes always too tired to give them hell��jinbei did end up telling them to stop, and ofc only chopper, usopp & zoro obliged. luffy…….just doesnt gaf.
★ speaking of music artists: nami & robin (& sanji) are hot girls. they loveee megan thee stallion. nami has a poster of her in her studio, robin enjoys megan’s lyricism, and sanji…is sanji! nami says she really enjoys megan’s music because she feels like she can relate (especially the song budget ft. latto)…i feel like sanji would try to propose to megan at her own concert and she’d actually say yes and he would take it back only because he thinks he can’t handle her n she deserves better & megan would just be like…..k next!
★ zoro’s main love language is acts of service. like omg for his s/o he’s the type of person that would cover sharp edges in their blindspots (ex. s/o drops a utensil on the floor and as they reach over to grab it, zoro sticks his hand out to cover the table edge so s/o doesn’t hurt themselves on the way up), he always opens doors for them, lets them walk in front of him (if they aren’t side by side) to watch their back…his first priority after a huge fight is to find s/o and then they find the others together…yes he’s a quiet lover but his actions will always speak for him fr. and if s/o feels like they need more reassurance zoro would take the time to actually read on how to communicate better or ask robin for advice TT
★ luffy gets into petty arguments with his crew mates for shits and giggles…like arguing with robin about who chopper gets to sleep with, argues with nami about how he should get more allowance than others (she swears she splits it evenly…between her and robin atleast), argues with brook about how he’s a better singer than him and that he should’ve been the one who got famous through music (luffy baby ur already famous….). he never listens to jinbei (unless its like pirate-related) and likes to do the opposite of whatever he tells him to (ex. sneaking into the kitchen late at night) just to see him get mad LMFAO i can only imagine him trying not to laugh as he’s getting scolded
★ an: this was kinda long, i’m sorry 😭 but idk i just get bored sometimes…i’ll probably just do this whenever i get lil creative bursts. i’m still working on my lil oc on the side..buuut part one? :p

cute couple things that make me giggle
the below content is couple headcanons i have for Lloyd and my Ninjago OC Hanna because why not. i wanted to post this originally yesterday but got carried away by Lloyd. just Lloyd...
i have a problem. probably.
mild spoiler warning for the later seasons of Ninjago. Read at your own risk
hope you enjoy, send me asks about them if you want to, or about my AU in general :3
FIRST A QUICK NOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
back to Lloyd Lore hehe. after March of the Oni (s10) he begins transforming into the literal form of a dragon-oni-human hybrid. before this, lloyd had color changing eyes, pointed ears, and fangs he could extend and retract whenever.
the transformations our resident green ninja goes through finishes by the end of Crystalized (s16). at that point in time, Lloyd has horns that are about 6 inches tall, they fade from his skin color into goldish green. Lloyd also gets a tail!! :D
said tail is about 7ft long and looks like a dragons tail with spikes running down the top half until the end where it has blond hair that matches whats on his head. the tail is green and his spikes are gold.
he can make a conscious effort to transform back into him pre-s10 but it takes a lot of energy so he just chills like that most of the time.
anyway, back to headcanons.
---------------------
Lloyd's obsessed with giving Hanna hugs from behind. mostly because he does it a lot when she's upset at something and he gets to flex how he calms her down and because he just loves hugging her
he's the big spoon and lays purposefully when they cuddle so his back is facing the door so if someone breaks in he gets hit first
she gets him flowers, specifically orchids bc they're his favorite. he nearly cries every time and keeps them in a vase by his bedroom window
lloyd realized he was transforming because hanna pointed it out.
when lloyd gets really insecure about his transformations hanna helps out by transforming too then making him go on a walk in public with her
their relationship became known to the public on accident. lloyd was doing an interview after a dangerous mission that scared hanna and she didnt see that there was a camera. she full on ran into his arms and demanded kisses. they had to flee shortly after
lloyd tracks hanna's cycle so he can buy all the things she needs before the period starts and so he knows when not to argue back with her
hanna doesnt own very many turtlenecks and doesnt like how concealer feels on her skin so she walks around with lloyds marks proudly
she taught him how to braid hair, he braids her hair now
he taught her how to take photographs, she now is always taking his picture
hanna loves rings she likes collecting them n stuff too. its a hobby. she also likes wearing them but didnt wear one on her left ring finger because it felt wrong. when she realized she was in love with lloyd, she bought a green ninja ring and started wearing it on that finger.
they have a minecraft world together
hanna is better at aiming in video games than he is, so she's the long distance shooter and he's the short distance
when hanna walks into the room, lloyds tail wags. he cant help it.
they banter. a lot. it turns into angry flirting and confuses anyone listening.
sometimes if they are annoyed with people in public, they will talk in Harmonzer/Oni about it
lloyd loves being hannas backpack on her bike but they often switch it up. sunset bike rides are amazing. hanna refuses to leave the monastery until she and lloyd are fully geared up, she takes safety seriously
they both cry during emotional movies.
hanna and lloyd dont like breaking down in front of other people and prefer to do it in private. after they got together, they started to go find one another when they knew they were hurting.
hanna and lloyd share each other's dreams through the Nexus twice a week.
hanna likes chocolate sweets the best but doesn't like chocolate cake. Lloyd likes minty sweets the most but doesn't like mint ice cream.
they get each other gag gifts for birthdays and christmases.
hanna loves the rain, its partly because she finds the sound of it calming and because in my AU, i say the weather is of some Chaos essence and it helps her stabilize. Lloyd figured this out and will sit out in pouring rain with her
thats all for these headcanons and cutesy things that make me want to throw up and break into a million pieces all at once. if you have any questions, please send me asks :D

hello there.
i came to do this post to apologize to anyone who has seen my previous post and have gotten hurt or felt terrible because of what i wrote.
for context, i made a distasteful post about how people who stay in toxic relationships and complain about their partner dont deserve to keep complaining if they are consciously still deciding to be together with the person. i argued that if they are deciding to be together with said person even if people try to give them advice about the relationship, they sometimes have an attitude about how they can decide what they want and often push people away to stay in that toxicity.
when making the post, i failed to realize that my post made it seem like i was victim blaming people for being in their own predicament, which is totally reasonable and it made me realize that i really was doing that while being an moron in my rant. i failed to acknowledge that a lot of people in toxic relationships struggle to let go of that abuse being as they are chained to it by many reasons, such as trauma or dependency.
i didnt delete the post sooner cause i log out from this account, but when i read the handful of comments letting me know of my tone deaf and shitty behavior, it made me realize how much of an asshole take it was, especially directed as a “vent”.
so to anyone who has read my previous post, im sorry.
i should be more compassionate towards people who cant have the strength to cut off those that are harmful to them. my lack of compassion and selfishness made me blind of the more painful experiences people go through. ill be more knowledgeable of abusive relationships in the future. my post wasnt meant to be harmful but it fully was and i now realize that.
im sorry.
now, to anyone who cares, i hope you dont mind if i give some context with the relationships im in that made me make that post in the first place. i understand if no one wants read about anything i say anymore, but i guess i wanted to share this.
TW: abuse, self harm in the second half of the explanation
there are two relationships that delivered the context of that post.
the first one is mainly the reason of the post.
friend got into his first relationship not too long ago. although things started off well with him and his girlfriend, recently he has been annoyed and disappointed with her.
he has been talking about how he cant stand her, how their opposite personalities annoy him, how she isnt affectionate with him, that she doesnt communicate well and doesnt put much of an effort into the relationship as he does. is not that shes abusive, is that she seems to be more lax in the relationship compare to him and its messing him up.
he has only come to me to vent about her so im the only person who is aware about his dissatisfaction in the relationship.
i have, as any reasonable friend, been a shoulder to lean on. i been listening to his rant and given him advice.
at first i was trying to give the standard. communicate, talk about boundaries, talk about insecurities, make her feel safe in the relationship.
but then when things gotten to the point of him being tired of who she is as a person and even considering preferring another girl over her, i started to just think “he should break up with her”.
but he cant. mainly cause he thinks theres something wrong with him and that he has too much love that a person cant handle when i think this is just a problem of incompatibility.
i have always comforted him and tried letting him know that breaking up with her isnt the end of the world. that theres still a chance to meet someone else new, but he cant bring himself to do it because he has already done so much.
but, if he cant even think about being with her in the next five years then why even keep trying?
even today he left me a message of her lack of comfort. all i could say was that i wanted to hug him cause he doesnt deserve that.
which is why it annoys me so much with how he can’t bring himself to break up. i wish there was a way i could show him that is okay to fail at times, to let him know theres nothing wrong with him, that he should stand up for himself if she is not putting in the effort for him. but im also aware how really… weak he is to say the least.
writing this now, and seeing how his relationship was what made make the previous post in the first place does make me realize how even though i think i have good intentions i still am an asshole.
i just wish there was more i could do then just be his rant dump because thats all he even talks to me for. but im aware im not even doing any good in the first place.
now this next one will touch upon the warnings from earlier, so again:
TW: abuse, self harm.
ill admit i wasnt thinking about this relationship at first when i made that post, but it did remind me of the person in it.
i want to say im also going to go into heavy detail about shit thats probably useless in the first place so im sorry.
im a child of divorce, and when my parents were in the beginning process of divorcing, my mom started dating a childhood friend of hers. this didnt really give her the time to truly grieve on the divorce as she managed to quickly find a replacement partner that could give her the love and affection she needed in a difficult time for her.
although things started well, and we tried to get along with her boyfriend, soon enough things got bad.
fights and arguments started, physical altercations too, a big power imbalance occurred between us and her boyfriend, were we moved into HIS house and we had to be on our best behavior to let us live there.
either way, soon enough he kicked us out.
luckily my aunt let us stay in her house and we managed to stay there before my mom got a house for us to live in.
now, i dont know, maybe i am stupid, but you would think that after the abuse, the physical altercations, the disrespect with him, and getting literally kicked out of his house when we were depending on him will make you think my mother will break up with him no?
wrong.
my mom was allowed to come back to his house. every night while me and my brother stayed in my aunt’s house where we had to share a space with my cousin and follow the rules of my aunt, my mom will come probably for an hour or two everyday to take clothes with her and leave to stay with him.
for a year, i had to start being independent completely at the age of 18 as i also had to take care of my neurodivergent brother alone. i began to be very stand off and never open up about my emotions because i didnt have anyone to lean on.
it didnt help that it seems my mom always thinks im against her. any mistake that i made was an attack towards her, some that often lead to her get in trouble with her boyfriend or even my aunt or just in general that i was disobeying her on purpose. i always tried to be good and not bother her with my own existence but nothing ever worked so she made me feel like shit and i started self harming for half that time.
the only times i have opened up to my mom were through mental breakdowns where she finally acknowledged my pain and how much i hated that she would leave me and my brother to fend for ourselves despite how hurting we are. the first time this happened she said we will always be together and things will change.
on september an incident happened.
my mom was on a three day trip with her boyfriend on another town. they often do go out on trips, maybe to satisfy him so i dont stop her.
however, during the second day in got a notification on my phone from her boyfriend saying that they suddenly were at his house and that i needed to pick up my mom. i, knowing this guy is a prick, that he gets made easily because of his fragile ego, that my mom is depending on him for the trip, that they used to get into nasty fights and physical altercation, it made me scared about why were they even back in the first place.
thinking the worst, i came to the house to pick her up. it’s obvious he didnt want her, that he could leave her any time he wanted. so i came to her to make her realize she has a home, that im here for her, that no matter what, even if she keeps choosing her shitty boyfriend ill always be there to pick her back up.
when i got there she started yelling at me. that just me being there worsen the situation between them. mind you, she was outside and wasnt going to leave his house because she wanted to talk while he wanted her out the house.
she said that i basically fucked things up for her, and when she was removed from the house when the cops came, she had a completely breakdown she took off on me.
i dont want to get into the details. mostly that she said a lot of nasty stuff towards me. just that i made it worse by then running away. i was gone for an hour. and when i came back it just made her think more that i just didnt respect her in any way.
…to be honest at this point im not even sure why i keep writing.
long story short, she has expressed she prefers being with her boyfriend over me and me brother, despite the fact i sometimes hear that asshole berate her for no reason. i have to keep him in my life just because she lets him in our home and he is still entangled with my mother.
he makes her cry, he makes her hurt, she cant let go of him because she loves him so much.
and all i can do is sit and watch.
because in my mind, why is it that you prefer that asshole over your own children?
i know im not innocent in this bullshit. i have become very resentful as a person despite being aware that my mother is just a weak individual. i guess that anger and frustration is why i made that post in the first place. i guess is also why i feel so ashamed in myself, especially when it comes to having feelings for someone and being vulnerable.
im sorry to anyone ive hurt in my post again. i know my trauma doesnt change the fact that i was still being insensitive about other people’s struggles and still am.
im sorry.

i know the usual white feminist crowd wont even care to read this but i just have to share it somewhere bc i feel sick to my stomach.
today we went to uni wearing all black bc the government wouldn't declare a national mourning. i heard one of my friends asking another boy why wasn't he wearing black, he answered with "why, what happened?" ive lost all hope for this country and men in general.
one of my professors had a rent abt how homicides weren't special to our country and if we were to move abroad we'd become second-class citizens there. this is a man who lived in europe for multiple years and now is making his studies with the help of the government, making moneys we cant even dream of, telling us to basically get over it. why am i even surprised at this point, he's working with government, theyre giving him money for his researches, of course hes gonna help discard the news under the rug faster, the media block irl version.
another professor made even crazier comments, a misogyny speech, he said that he didnt even care abt the events bc the girls were the murd3r3r's ex gfs. he talked abt how it was women's fault that they were always choosing the abuser men, not even considering the abuser men in question as a problem. i couldnt believe my ears when he said he wouldnt even help a girl if he saw it happen. i feel worried abt the women in his life (he doesnt have a wife, ofc, thats why hes so salty at this age with a child) i tried so hard not to cry and scream during the lecture, having to listening to him in silence.
they're trying to feed us these propagandas even more than media, poisining our brains and gaslighting us to believe that world outside turkey is hell, even worse than here. the sad part is these are people who were supposed to be role models for students, but they're men after all.
i felt even more nauseous when one of my "friends" (apolitic, a new way to say you're pro-government and a freak) as a woman said that there were more homicides happening in belgium. i couldnt even look at her at this point, me and my other friends argued saying how the difference is that theres a law system there, as oppose to ours. she ignored us and kept trying to talk abt biochemistry. how can she not see that everything is political when you're a woman? how can she believe that she's privileged enough to not have a political opinion?
i've lost hope. im tired of walking home with my head low, looking at my shadow with a paranoia, knowing that someone could kill me for no reason at all and get away with it. please share the events anywhere you can, they're trying to silence us, to keep us in our houses with fear to go outside but we cant let them win. TURKISH WOMEN NEED HELP

hey, my name is emily. your account is really great, you’re like too smart.
i introduced my mum to teen wolf and she’s been watching for the past few months. we just finished s5 and you need to hear this.
basically, i asked her off hand do you like liam and theo? and she was like yeh i really like liam and gave all her reasoning. she said she didn’t like theo. and she hasn’t seen s6 yet so i was like okay valid.
but even so, i asked her why. and her response is something else. she went on a whole spiel. these were her exact words (p.s. she’s a bit of a character):
“the guy has three metal doctors who are like supernatural encyclopaedias and an entire lab of a chemicals and gadgets and materials and information and chimeras and all that jazz. and he chooses to become an free escort and learn how to fake cry to make his ends meet? like you have all of that and you couldn’t think of anything else? crying and acting like an escort is what people in the 1700s are on the streets did to make a living because they had no other option. he has all of this and he couldn’t think of anything else? …”
she said some other stuff that i don’t remember but i remembered this word for word because its so funny.
hi emily!! first of all, thank you! this is seriously so sweet, i loved getting this message :( i was like "wow. someone watched tw with their mom and had the thought 'tumblr user theninth09 needs to hear about this.'" im honored, like actually!
and thank you again for sharing this with me, because this is hilarious. actually laughed at your mom calling theo a 1700s escort like nsiebwjs omg??? he really is, i fucking can't 😭 because im me, ill briefly rant about the reasons why theo acts like that instead of trying to find a different solution. this is absolutely nothing against your lovely mom, i think shes hilarious and i 100% get why people dont like theo in s5!! gladly let me know if she changes her opinion about him as you watch s6 and i hope she has fun watching <3
funnily enough, i actually think she answered her question with her own words. "crying and acting [...] because [he] had no other option." theo grew up with the dread doctors, they groomed him into the person that he is. he must've learned how to act like that over the years, they must've trained him into doing whatever they want. so its not really him "choosing" to act like that, but rather that hes 1. so used to it that he doesnt even consider there being another option and 2. the doctors Expect from him that he does that. i know that theo seems like this guy that just does whatever he wants, especially in s5b. but the doctors hold a lot of power over him and hes absolutely not unaffected by that. hes actively scared of them and listens to everything they say.
when theo speaks with donovan (the guy that stiles later accidentally kills) he says that the doctors dont usually let him speak to other experiments. meaning that this time, they did allow him. he doesnt ignore their orders: if hes forbidden from doing something, he doesnt do it. he only talks to donovan because he got the doctors approval for that. when he tells the doctors that he needs hayden alive, that he needs more time (he also literally says I did everything you wanted in this same scene) just the doctors turning to look at him is enough to scare him. he takes a step back, it almost looks like there are tears in his eyes, he doesnt try to argue again even though hes obviously not happy.
when him, scott and liam find mason attached to the doctors tube-thing (or whatever that thing was) theo says that he doesnt know either what that is: the doctors dont tell him everything, perhaps forbid him from touching certain things, keep him in the dark about stuff they consider too important. theo and the dread doctors aren't allies, theo isn't with the doctors. theo is like their pet, their minion. they use him and tell him what to do and only as long as he doesn't interfere with their work, they tolerate him trying to reach his own goal. they classify him as a failure despite him not having bled mercury and theos voice shakes, hes terrified as he says "im not a failure."
yes, theo talks back and hes arrogant and impulsive. but hes also a traumatized child that more or less got raised by the dread doctors. he doesnt try to figure out a different way to reach his goal, because he doesnt even consider it a possibility. hes scared of the repercussions. and also: lets say none of what i just said is relevant (or true, im aware that some of this goes into subtext/headcanon territory.) then there'd actually still be a reason why he doesn't use the dread doctors stuff: he doesn't want to.
his main goal, his desire is to become a real werewolf. that's what's most important to him. after he gets the chimera pack, he says to the doctors, frustrated, that hes still not an actual alpha, that his eyes are still golden. when he kills scott, he asks "because im not a real werewolf?" with his insecurity regarding that obviously shining through. he calls chimeras "cheap knock-off versions." cody has talked about theo's inferiority complex in interviews, too. tinkering with the dread doctors stuff and whatever information they may have wouldn't help him. he wants to be a real werewolf. and if the doctors themselves couldnt even manage to have him be the successful chimera to turn into the beast, hes probably long abandoned any ideas about a way to do it himself. trying to steal someone else's powers is, in theo's mind, his only option.
(also: tv logic reasons and him finding a different way would've been boring to watch lmao)

holding my hands out like a kid at a candy store asking what you think Lightning and Sally would be like at formal events. like getting invited to parties after races and such
im gonna say i saw this, i sent it to roe, and she said it was probably her favourite ask we’ve ever received but we had no real ideas BUT WE HAVE IDEAS NOW. DO NOT FRET. im so sorry it took so long for me to get to you 💔
okay so. First off. i feel like lightning is a very casual, “you’ll have to physically hold me down to get me to wear anything fancy”, kind of guy. he would rather die than wear a suit. BUT, he listens to sally, and sally likes these formal events because it means they get to dress up together and look all cutesy as a couple (he will wear a suit if its for a date so Dont Worry, but the formal events are like fighting to get a cat in water or a fish out of it.)
so, more often than not, sally is kindly asking if he’ll dress up to go to the piston cup event, and more often than not it ends with him shaking and crying in front of the bathroom mirror trying to figure out how to fucking tie a tie because no one taught him. he only cooperates if its sally wanting to go BUT he will argue.
but when he gets to these parties or events, he forgets how much he Hates what hes been forced to wear and Boy can he brighten up a room. he gets one drink into his system (obviously very rarely, i cant see him enjoying alcohol too much) and all common sense or care is Gone he will embarrass himself in front of every other person in that room. this can Also be caused by the urge to try and fit in with the rest of them and just doing it Wrong.
sally, on the other hand, takes it slow. she has half a drink throughout the entire evening and mingles with lynda or some of the other racers partners, sometimes she has to go get lightning and bring him back to the table for food or just because hes getting Visibly overwhelmed but is Not realizing it himself or Trying to poorly be calm about it.. but she also brings a life to the party. i think she likes to dance, i think she maybe isnt the best at it (but to her credit, lightning cant dance for shit either) so she’ll dance with Her friends or lightning and it may be kind of embarrassing but she doesnt really care!! she likes these events quite a lot, it gives her a chance to engage with what lightning does for work and she can make friends she can relate to (and share anxiety with regarding race days..)
lightning will either find himself with sally or with bobby and cal, both of whom usually stand around doing nothing interesting and he has to collect them to bring their trio together. they both make fun of him for having to dress up so much, bobby gets complete freedom to dress however he likes because nobody in his family is really a major part of his piston cup career (and he doesnt have a partner)((and to clarify his family 100% supports him theyre so so proud but they dont have ANY idea what exactly these events entail so they stay out of his way)) whereas cal usually has to keep up the nice appearance because of that Weathers Family Name. he doesnt mind, he likes dressing up anyways, plus after the accident he had to go to a majority of events with his aunt and uncle cause no one could watch him. so hes been Trained for this day.
anyways, i think theyre both very proud of each other and they both Very much show it, especially at these events, theyre very lovey dovey and theyre silly and and. Yeah thats all the ideas i have 😭
