-flash fic-

warning/s: none
note: it was supposed to be a smol drabble but uh it got too long for that whoop!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It seems like there’s a thief in the dorms. The evidence was indisputable, seeing as almost half of your closet is empty. You searched through your hanged clothing looking for your uniforms. !!!Multiple sets, gone!!!
“What the heck-” You began to rummage through your drawers. “What?”
Your drawers were also half empty. “Even the underwear drawer?!”
“What the hell is going on??” You scratched your head trying to remember if you recently did your laundry and forgot to fetch it? You looked all over your room, examining every corner anywhere your clothes could’ve ended up at.
None
“Well damn…” You breathe out a defeated sigh, hands in a praying position. “Yaga-sensei, I am extremely sorry in advance.”
.
.
.
You ran into Geto on your way to your classroom, he raised a questioning eyebrow, looking at you up and down. “Dude, why are you-”
“Not in uniform?” Your eyes reflected someone who’s clearly defeated. “Geto…I think there’s a thief in our midst.”
“Ha?” You placed your hand on his shoulder for dramatic effect.
“Gege, half of my closet is missing.” To your irritation, Geto burst out laughing. “Geto Suguru! I’m serious! Half of my closet’s missing!”
The bitch continued to laugh. “Geto! Stop it! I’m miserable here!”
Geto shook his head, amused by your misery. “Fine, fine, it is so unfortunate your clothes are gone.”
You glared at him, suspicion clear on your face. “You know something…”
“Dude, you're the only one that’s in the dark.” He snickered as he slid open the classroom door.
“Whad ya meannn??” You followed him inside and then closed the door; at first, you only saw Shoko sitting in her chair reading some magazine. “Shoko! Be careful, some pervert took my clothes! Even my underwear!”
“Oh? How unfortunate…” She nonchalantly flipped a page.
“Shoks! Not you too!”
Sighing, Shoko took her eyes off her magazine and pointed to the side. “Do yourself a favour and look over at Gojo.”
“Huh?” Confused, you slowly looked at the direction. Lo and behold, the one and only Gojo Satoru animatedly talking to Geto…wearing your uniform.
“Gojo Satoru!” He jumped from his seat before cheekily looking at you. Geto, knowing what’s about to happen backed off.
“Yesh~?” You power walked to him. Satoru couldn’t help but gulp, not because he’s scared-oh no no, he’s the strongest; he ain’t scared of anything. He found your angry face quite hot.
You slammed one hand on his desk, roughly pulling on the collar of your uniform that is currently being worn by the Satoru. “Mind telling me what you're doing with my uniform?”
He nervously chuckled, “I dunno what you mean, handsome.”
Your grip tightened; Satoru wished it was his neck instead.
“Give me my uniform, Toru.” The gall of this boy to stick his tongue out at you. “Toru! If Yaga-sensei sees me like this, he’s gonna have my head on a stick!”
“Not my problem, pretty boy.” Having none of it, you swiftly tried to unbutton the shirt. He theatrically crossed his arms holding onto his shoulders, swinging side to side. “Ah! Yamete kudasai! Take me out on a date first!”
“I already did, you doofus!” Satoru shrieked and started to playfully slap your hands away as you tried to slide the sleeves off him.
“Not in front of Shoko and Suguru babe!”
Before you could yell back, the classroom door slammed open. “Gojo Satoru! Y/n L/n! What the hell is going on?! L/n, stop undressing Gojo!”

what kinds of feelings? — teen!satoru gojo x reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media
summary: you finally admit to gojo the weird sensations you've been feeling around him. you can't understand why you've been feeling this way, but gojo's glad one thing's clear: you feel the same way he does for you. word count: 888
Tumblr media
"my heart beats all the time, shouldn't be a big deal, but i can't help but notice how loud the beating is when you're around..." you muttered as you looked up at gojo, feeling a warmth in your cheeks as you sat down next to him under the shade of a tree by an empty street you two were stationed to monitor (though you were sure geto and shoko gave you guys the wrong location on purpose). gojo looked down at you when he heard those words escape your mouth and soon, a smile appeared on his lips, which opened and laughter came tumbling out of his mouth as he thought on what you just told him.
what was funnier to him was that not even you realized what you just said even meant, and that was, to gojo, the cutest thing ever. he leaned closer towards you, his cyan blue eyes bearing holes into your own as he smirked at you. "really now...?" he began as he wrapped his arm around your shoulders, which made you whimper a little at the closeness between you two and the feeling of his hand on your shoulder. oh, there it was again, that beating... it was so obvious now, you felt like at any moment, your heart would burst out of your chest and land on gojo's lap. you didn't hate the feeling, though, you were just so confused as to why it beat that loudly, that rapidly.
"yes..." you murmured as gojo brushed his cheek against yours and stuck his tongue out at you playfully. "mmm, okay, okay, what else do you feel around me?" he asked you in a lower voice as he soon pressed his thigh against yours, which sent warm shivers down your spine. "i... um..." you stammered as gojo grabbed your cheeks gently and turned your head to look at him as he gave your cheeks a light squeeze. "c'mon now, no need to be shy... you were so bold in what you said earlier, care to indulge me in any more trivia about yourself when i'm near?" he teased you without you even realizing it as he slid his hand underneath your thigh and held you by your shoulders and the backs of your thighs.
you yelped at him suddenly carrying you like you were an infant and called out his name out of embarrassment. "satoru...!" you exclaimed with a flustered face and widened eyes as gojo laughed again at your sweet little reactions. he brought his face even closer to yours and nuzzled his nose against yours as he chuckled. "what's wroooooong? i'm not hurting you, am i?" he asked you as he got up and began to walk away with you like you were his spouse to be. you clung on to his uniform top, which made him whistle low at your nervousness. "how cute..." he cooed as he brushed his nose against your cheek.
"y'know... i get the same feeling, too, when you're around. it's not like anything i've ever experienced before, it's an even more fun kind of adrenaline, and best of all..." he trailed off as he brought you up closer to his face, his lips hovering over yours as you quivered and got even more flustered in the face, your eyelashes tickling his cheek a little as he smirked and began to speak again. "...only you can make me feel this way... i really, really love it..." he whispered as he leaned down even more to almost connect your lips together, that was, until shoko and geto saw you two after they were going to tell you two the mission was on the opposite side of town.
gojo chuckled as he let go of you, with you falling down to the pavement as he dropped you. "asshole!" you exclaimed as he walked around your figure as you got up on your feet, with shoko and geto aiding you up. shoko made sure you didn't have any lasting injuries as geto looked over at gojo and chuckled. "now, satoru, is that really how you'd treat the only person you love who genuinely loves you back?" geto asked him, which made gojo stop in his tracks for once.
he turned around and his neutral expression curved into a slight smile. he looked at you from underneath his dark blue tinted sunglasses and walked over to you with a smirk. "fine... i suppose i got a little too cocky and kinda threw you around, but c'mon, you still love me just like i love you, right?" he asked you as shoko and geto backed away from you two, giggling and murmuring to each other as your eyes widened yet again and your mind blanked as a heat caressed your face as gojo placed his hand on your jawline.
"such a goody two shoes cutie like you with a menace like me... oh, you are going to regret being mine, i'll show you all the right ways to be living, sweetheart." he said with a slight blush enveloping his cheeks as his grin widened and his touch became much more gentle, as if his apology was wrapped in that gentle touch of his. oh boy, to love an arrogant asshole like him is both a joy and a curse.

What's in a name? A (very) simple guide to find your Rook's name.
I’ve seen some people are wondering how some of us already have named Rooks, others have no idea how to get names or which names could be good, and since i kinda overdid it and have 11 Rooks already planned and named i thought i’d share some of my process and drop some ideas. This works for me, but maybe it can help others find their Rook’s name(s).
Keep in mind these are also fantasy names, they don’t have to make sense or have a specific meaning, you can literally make them up. I also take into consideration known naming conventions, for example in Elven we have Solas and Abelas’ names, with specific meanings (Pride, Sorrow) and judging by what Solas tells Abelas, it’d seem ancient elvhen would change their names according to roles or events in their life. Similarly in the Qun, we know their names aren’t names as we understand them but simply descriptors of the role that is assigned to them within the Qun.
It’s probably easier when it comes to human nations in Thedas: Orlesians are likely to have French names, Fereldans to have anglo names, Antivans to have Spanish and Italian names. Tevinter is a bit trickier because it’s based on the Roman empire and Latin is a pretty dead language, but they sure liked to make records so we have names there too.
Elvhen names:
I literally opened a tab with the Elven language DA wiki page and read everything -for the bazillionth time tbh-; DA elven language is a cipher, not a conlang, so feel free to make things up because we don’t have the full cipher -i’m not even sure BW does- .
For Elven names i check the wiki for words that i like the sound of, the meaning of, ideally both. If i feel something is “missing” i may add a letter or combine different words into a new one.
Here are some examples:
Athima, from athim, humility
Atisha, from Atish'an, atisha is peace
Sethena, from Sethen'a or Setheneran, land of waking dreams or where the veil is thin, aka the Fade.
Revaren, from Revas, freedom, and Renan, voice.
Alasan, from alas, earth/dirt, and suffix an, place.
Sulahni, from sulahn, sing.
Samahli, from samahl, laughter.
Vardanehn, lit. Our little joy.
Mir'as, Banal'ras is shadows, implying ras refers to light, Mir is mine. Lit. "my light".
Qunlat names:
Same process as elven, but trying to modify as less as possible, keeping in mind the Qunari are very rigid in their ways and can be very literal as well.
Anaan, victory
Asaarash, rivaini horsebreed used by the antaam.
Kaaras, navigator.
Asaara-kaaras, wind navigator, wind rider.
Saar, dangerous. Saar-asaara, dangerous wind. Saar-meraad, dangerous tide.
Sata-kasi, mauler.
Vattic-kos, vat is fire, tic is cold and kos refers to nature damage, all three words are in reference to damage done with a mage staff. So Vattic-kos could be elemental damage.
Shokra, shok is struggle or war, shokrakar is rebel.
Antivan names:
These were way easier as i’m Latina of Spanish and Italian descent which in this case feels a bit like cheating. I think any Spanish and Italian name could work, these are just some i like.
Vittoria/Victoria
Chiara
Alessandro/a
Stefan
Dante
Aria
Tevinter names:
I literally googled for Latin names for this one, and also checked previous Tevinter characters’ names. Some of this could also work for an Antivan Rook.
Aelius
Amadis
Bastian
Caelus
Camilla
Dena
Dante
Desideria
Ella
Enora
Favian
Fausto, Faustino, Faustus
Gaius
Gloria
Grazia
Klaudia
Laurena
Lavinia
Liberia
Merit/Mérita/Mérito
Remus
Salena
Sarina
Sidonia
Sollemnia
Tatius
Terentius
Tiberius
Urbano, Urbanus
Valentio
Varinia
Viatrix
Virgilio, Virgil
Vitus
Xandros
I’m leaving out the numerals like Primo, Segundo, Quintus, Octavio... check Cesars' names, that could work too. I think you could just search the scientific name of any fauna (hello House Pavus) or flora and pick whatever sounds nice too. Also we recently got a new Magister’s name in the Dragon Age: Vows & Vengeance trailer, Magister Andante. Y’know what “Andante” means? Walking. Magister Walking. Fear nothing and go wild with these names, seriously.
You could also check other cultures and native names, respectfully of course. Here are some guaraní and mapuche names i like, i didn’t modify these at all.
Kerana, guaraní “goddess of sleep”, or sleepy one.
Karai, guaraní, “respectable man”.
Luriel, guaraní, “lord of the wind”.
Amaru, guaraní, “rain”.
Anahí, guaraní, from a legend, the name of a young woman burned at the stake by the conquistadors, after which she is transformed into the flowering tree.
Newén, mapuche, "strength"
Nahuel, mapuche, “jaguar”
Ayelén, mapuche, “laughing”.
Tahiel, mapuche, “hombre libre”
For Dwarven names, i am deeply sorry i haven't decided on a Dwarf Rook yet so i haven't done my dwarven research, but the same process applies: check the canon dwarf names we got so far, if the lore says anything about dwarven naming conventions, if they're a commoner or noble, if there are caste-specific names too, and so on. And if you want to name your dwarf Rook Bob, that's fine too! ( if DUNE can have Paul and Jessica, why couldn't we have a dwarf named Bob?? like i said, go wild, name freely, be happy)
I understand some people don't want to or aren't sure about naming their Rooks until we learn what the different canon surnames will be, and i totally get that, i felt the same way. But i couldn't resist until we got that info so i overdid it, particularly with my Tevinter-Nevarran mage whose name i picked clearly inspired by Cassandra's full name, only for me to end up calling her by the first of her five names that i kinda struggle to remember. So far we've only seen one canon surname, "Thorne", and since surnames are defined by factions, Thorne seems to be the Grey Wardens' canon surname. The elf Grey Warden champion seen in the recent high-level combat gameplay is named Esha Thorne.
I think maybe surnames should depend on what they're now calling lineage (elven, qunari, human, dwarf) rather than on factions, or they could have offered options, one per lineage and one per faction, and let us decide which one to keep. An elf named Thorne sounds a bit odd to me, even if they're a Grey Warden. Will any of my chosen names match the canon surnames? Probably not, but at least i had fun while naming them. My only GW for now is Favian and Favian Thorne doesn't sound bad.
Anyway, I hope this helps those who are a bit lost to find names that works for you and your Rooks, have fun!

And they ask me if this is necessary, but man!, when a Mexican separates and is empowered in the world of animation I was like a shoks that apparently I liked a lot to watch Spooky Month for a long time I hardly watched this series. Why I took a look to watch the series again AND FOR THE ONLY THING THAT GAVE ME A FUCKING CHEST PAIN MAN WHAT BEAUTIES. This series gave in one place to another the best and fascinating work in part of religion, I understand very much that sometimes children come to have fun and even to arrive on their own account of curiosity but for some reason they end up manifesting it in causing terror not only through circumstances it is until death, Knowing more about the story they are just children but if you have to take into account of that, on the part of Father Gregor this gentleman who have precision to all adversities I have a great admiration for him, you see the importance a great impulse to this series you love him very much Sr.pelo! , Go see it guys, you're going to like it!

Late Nights in Hyperspace
Tumblr media
Summary: As the rest of Clone Force 99 sleeps, you and Tech spend some quality time in the cockpit of the Havoc Marauder playing games on your datapad.
Pairing: Tech & GN Reader (Could be read as romantic or platonic, no Y/N or physical description of reader's appearance)
Rating: G
Warnings: None!
Word Count: 1k
A/N: A friend introduced me to The Watermelon Game the other day and now I am obsessed! Maybe too obsessed, since this is what came of it (as well as a full circle of evolution with Star Wars fruit)! Wrote this silly little fic in between rounds of the game while I finish up the next chapter of Busted Hyperdrive, hope you enjoy! <3
AO3 | Masterlist
“You are still doing it wrong,” a deadpan voice mutters over my shoulder, I can practically feel the frustration radiating off of the man behind me, betraying that flat tone, “I have devised a strategy to avoid total failure, allow me to take the controls.”
“I know what I’m doing, Tech, relax.” My grip tightens around the controls almost posessively, hoping he didn’t pick up on the fact that any confidence in my voice is bogus. I know I’m flying blind, that's the point, but I’m not telling him that. I take a deep breath and plot my next move.
“I would strongly advise against that.” He’s leaned forward in his chair, his voice much closer than before, and his fingertips brush against my shoulder as he grips the back of my seat.
“Would you.”
“Yes, I would. Though, I know you do not plan on heeding my advice, please know my strategy would be much more effective.” 
“Would it.” I don’t crack, no, I keep my cool as I finally align the shot and take a deep breath before hitting the button. Bombs away.
The tension in the cockpit is astronomically, laughably high. If this were a holofilm the scene before me would be playing out in slow motion as Tech and I lean forward dramatically to watch the little cartoon jellyfruit fall from the top of my holopad screen to the jumbled pile of fruits below. It’d then cut to the horror on my face slowly transforming into triumphant delight, and Tech’s into shocked defeat, as it comes in contact with another jellyfruit, metamorphosing into a shuura and setting off a chain reaction. Fruits combine, growing larger as they bounce around the screen before settling at the bottom in a small pile. What once was a jumbled mess of fruits has become a single lamta, two meilooruns, and a handful of jogans.
I turn to Tech with a smug grin, “You were saying?”
After a moment, he finally pries his gaze from the screen in my hands to meet my eyes. It’s a rare occasion, proving Tech wrong, so I may as well savor it. I don’t get long, though, as the corners of his lips start to curve into the beginning of a smile, “That should not have worked.”
“But it did!” I nearly shout in glee, laughing quietly in hopes I didn’t just wake the rest of the squad, fast asleep in the racks behind us as we drift through hyperspace. “C’mon, you have to admit that was impressive. I’m only one away from getting the shi-shok and I beat your high score!”
“Your current score is quite the accomplishment. Though, I must admit, it would have been much more impressive had you planned it, dear,” he chides, leaning back into his seat.
“I mean, technically I did,” I shrug, returning my attention to the screen to line up the hovering jogan with the pile below. “Like, it’s the objective of the game. It’s all intentional by default, isn’t it?”
“Yes, I suppose it is,” Tech chuckles behind me. He shifts forward once again when a dricklefruit appears at the top of my screen with another just behind it, “Place those on top of the meiloorun on the left.”
“Stop backseat gaming, I need it by the kavasa.” I shift the fruit to the right side of the screen.
“The transformation will disrupt the top layer, sending the smaller fruits to the bottom,” I want to disagree with him, but the longer I linger over the drop button the more sound his assessment seems, “Strategy, dear.”
I shoot him a look over my shoulder, I should’ve expected the knowing grin I’m met with. Taking his advice, I move the tiny fruit back to the left side of the screen and let it fall before dropping the next on top of it. The two fuse into a jellyfruit, and a jellyfruit appears at the top of the screen. “You didn’t know that was gonna happen.”
“It was highly probable,” he counters, readjusting his goggles with a confident smirk.
“Nah, I don’t buy it, no way,” I laugh as I drop the fruit, watching as they turn into a shuura with an animated poof, the force of it sending the matching fruit on the right straight to it. The fruits settle into a perfect opening for my next two moves, turning the meiloorun below into a second lamta, then, the final fruit, the highest possible combination in the game: the shi-shok. It’s the closest I’ve ever gotten, I’m well past my previous high score and I should feel victorious, but I can’t seem to bring myself to, “It feels wrong.”
“What do you mean?” I don’t turn to look at him but I hear the confusion in his voice.
“I didn’t catch that, it doesn’t feel like my win.” I bite the inside of my lip in thought, tapping my fingers on the side of the datapad.
“I did not mean to steal your victory, so to speak.” He leans forward once again, thoughtfully this time; his hand returning to the back of my seat, his fingertips ghosting over my shoulder. “This is entirely ‘your win’.”
I meet his eyes and find nothing but sincerity. I nod just once before turning back to the screen and dropping the fruit. Who knew watching cartoon fruits turning into slightly larger cartoon fruits could feel so cathartic. When my gaze returns to Tech, after the lamtas become a massive shi-shok and the fruits begin to settle, I can only smile.
His hand now fully rests on my shoulder and his smile drops to something just a bit more serious, “You now hold the highest score in the game. I will change that.”
Though I pick up on the humor in his voice, as much as he tried suppressing it, I play along and clutch the datapad to my chest, “Never.” Our little act only lasts a few seconds before we’re both trying to keep the volume of our laughter to a minimum.
A/N: Thank you for reading! Comments and reblogs are greatly appreciated! <3

Our Family
First of all, this is an introductory chapter, so it was a quick narrative, I admit that I couldn't write very well, but I will publish it as a long-term fic, so there will be better parts, you can even make requests about it.
This is the part one of this serie
Part two is here
Lewis x fem!reader
Summary: You find out you're pregnant after a meal with your friends.
WARNINGS: Bad English (Sorry I didn't have time to check and fix)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was a nice day you decided to go out with your friends so you got up early, had breakfast and got ready until noon and left the house.
While driving to the place where you will be with the girls, you got a pain in your stomach and thought that you might have a period because it lasted for a few seconds, you continued on the road and reached the cafe.
You were having a good time at the cafe until the nausea and dizziness one of the girls came with you to the bathroom and helped you wash your face "Are you okay, do you want me to call someone?" You leaned against the toilet wall and closed your eyes, your head was spinning so badly, Lewis crossed your mind, but you didn't want to alarm him, so you shook your head negatively.
"Can you please take me home, I won't be driving" your friend took you to the car and got in the driver's seat and made you reach your house in a short time, she warned you to call if there was a problem.
You woke up to the phone notification after you slept and rested for a while, and when you saw the notification, you were caught in a momentary shock wave, you were aware that your period was delayed, but according to the notification on your phone, you haven't had your period longer than you expected.
So you quickly went to the nearest pharmacy and took the pregnancy test. You came home home and took the test and started to wait. In that few minutes, all kinds of possibilities were running through your head. How would Lewis react, would he be happy or would he be shok?
It was like minutes of nervousness finally went off when your phone alarm went off and you turned the stick upside down and covered your mouth in shock "i'm pregnant omg i am really pregnant"
You looked at the clock  Lewis had three more hours to return, which was enough for you to digest things and make an urgent appointment with your doctor.
First you made an appointment, then you changed and went to the doctor. When you arrived, you had to wait for a while ,you were trying to get used to this idea.
You started crying because the doctor said during the check-ups that you are 7 weeks pregnant and your baby looks very healthy and you can listen to the heartbeat if you want,these were definitely tears of happiness.
You listened the heartbeat, took the first ulton and said goodbye to your doctor and returned home, what would happen now, what would you say to Lewis, how would he react you knew his love for children and believed he would be a great father in the future you just didn't know if now is the right time you were afraid of timing .

Qunlat 3/12: Phonaesthetics and Phonotactics
⭅ Previous =⦾ Index ⦾= Next ⭆
“Shok ebasit hissra. Meraad astaarit, meraad itwasit, aban aqun. Maraas shokra. Anaan esaam Qun.”
Why does this feel different than English, or any other language you might know? phonaesthetics and orthography! The sound of a language and the way it’s written are your first introduction to it, so they’re logical places to start. Let’s dive in.
Tumblr media
The above text is the first bit of Qunlat you ever hear, recited by Sten during his imprisonment in Lothering. It has a particular character to it: To an English-speaker, it feels like it can fit equally well with someone speaking forcefully, or gently. It also feels pretty pronounceable, coming from an English perspective. You might not know what to do with a word like “anaan”, but you can make a guess. The orthography, the way it’s written, seems relatively straightforward. And it gives you a sense of its phonaesthetics, the aesthetic qualities of how the language is spoken, including the phonology and phonotactics: what sounds are in the language, and what order you can put them in. These give a language its own identity, even when you don’t understand it.
For an English-speaker, Qunlat is an approachable constructed language. Maybe not as “pretty” as Elvhen, but it’s not giving you any tongue-twisters. I certainly liked it, when I first played DAO way back in the day. I liked it so much that I’m doing this, after all.
Tumblr media
Outside of the fiction of the game, Qunlat essentially began as a written language, read aloud by pretty much just one dude: Mark Hildreth, the voice of Sten. These two sources set the template for the rest of the series, with caveats we’ll get to later. I’ll be starting with Qunlat as it’s presented to us in DAO and the main DA2 campaign (minus item names), because these two sources have the most agreement with each other. 
This took an ungodly amount of time to put together. I made the mistaken assumption that the wiki was comprehensive in its documentation of the two games, and that turned out to be wrong. I ended up having to dive into the Dragon Age Toolset to find more vocabulary, and I may still have missed some–I’m not particularly agile with that thing. And the more I found, the more inconsistencies I discovered, and the harder it became to structure this post. So this will only contain a relatively brief description of each source, which is backed up by a pile of data I’ve compiled here:
In DAO and DA2, spoken Qunlat never includes the letters C, F, J, X, Y or Z. The letter W only appears in the word itwa (“to fall”), and nowhere else. In DAO and DAI, Ps only appear at the start of a couple of set phrases: Panahedan (“goodbye”, “take refuge in safety”), and parshaara (“enough”, Sten’s favorite grumpy noise). Similarly in DAO and DAI, the letter U only appears in the name Koslun, and in the context of “QU”, except for one word that’s never been mentioned since DAO: Uukluk, which describes a Qunari architectural style the rest of the games seem to have turned away from. Unlike in English, Q doesn’t need to be accompanied by a U: Qabala and Qamek work just fine without it. 
Consonants follow certain phonotactic rules: This is the difference between “wing” and “ngiw”: one of them is permissible in English phonotactics, the other is not. Why? Because the start and end of a syllable are different roles that aren’t interchangeable. “Ngiw” is perfectly pronounceable, yet it would never arise within English as a result of the language’s internal rules. Vietnamese, though? Different phonotactics, and therefore that string of sounds is entirely possible. In fact, you might potentially use a word that sounds like that while describing the Qunari. Each language has its own phonotactics, and it’s a vital part of the language’s distinct feel.
When talking about individual syllables, we break them down into the onset, nucleus, and coda: the onset is the start of the syllable, the nucleus is its core, and the coda is anything that follows the nucleus. Because languages are hilarious, we have no good definition of what a syllable is, but generally you need a nucleus, and the onset and coda are optional. 
Qunlat in general is far more restrictive in its phonotactics than English is, and tends toward very simple syllables. most have one onset consonant, and one vowel: a “CV” syllable. “VC” is also allowed, but it’s rarer than “CV” or “CVC”. A very, very few are “CCVC” or “CVCC”, where two consonants sit together in the onset or coda. This theoretically means the maximum size of a Qunlat syllable is “CCVCC”, but there are currently no canon words that allow this.⁽¹⁾
Qunlat also has a number of dipthongs or vowel digraphs–Either two vowels placed next to each other, or two letters used to represent a single sound. It’s hard to tell what some of these are intended to be. These are AA, AH, AY, EE, EH, and OH. The dubious word Uukluuk contains UU, but it seems to be non-standard and never used again. The AA and EH vowels can appear anywhere in a word, while EE has only been used between two consonants, and the rest are only used if they’re at the end of a word: vah, toh, and say are valid and canonical words, while ahv, oht, and ays are not possible.
Unlike English, Qunlat isn’t fond of big consonant clusters. While English can give us words like “strengths”, which is a nine letter word spelled with eight consonants and pronounced with six, The most intense Qunlat gets in the first two games is “Ashkaari”: eight letters, four consonants, three consonant sounds.⁽²⁾ As a result, it may come across as less harsh and choppy than English does to many. The only valid consonant clusters that can stand on their own are ST (Sten, ast, etc.) and the rare BR (brak). No other consonant clusters can be placed at word boundaries.
There are four consonantal digraphs in DAO and DA2: DD, SH, SS, and TH. The double S appears to be a long S, while DD could be a geminate consonant, i.e. a doubled-up consonant sound (ex. English “midday”), though it isn’t often pronounced that way in the games. SH and TH sound the same as they do in English. DD is only found in the middle of words, TH and SS never found at the start of words, while SH can appear anywhere:
DD - Viddathari SH - Shok, ashkaari, ataash SS - Hissra, iss (see note) TH - Athlok, kith, dathrasi
note: there’s no words that end in -ss in DAO or DA2, only later material.
Then there are intervocalic consonant clusters, consonants that can sit together if they’re sandwiched between two vowels (ex. Ashkaari, hissra). There’s only a few of these attested in DAO and DA2, and a few more in later material.
The written language also features a favorite of many fantasy languages: hyphens. Hyphens are used to either stitch together words that are acting as a single unit, or to separate syllables that could produce ambiguous pronunciation. Tal-Vashoth has a hyphen because Tal (“true”) and Vashoth (“grey”) are forming a single conceptual unit, meaning one who’s left the Qun. The hyphen in “Asit tal-eb” helps make it clear to the reader that it’s tal and eb, not ta and leb.
To be honest, there’s no hard and fast rules on where to use these. DAO uses them sparingly, while DA2 uses them more often. It depends on whether you feel a word or phrase requires it, to match your intended reading or aesthetic.
Tumblr media
Speaking of “no hard and fast rules”: speaking Qunlat.
As I intimated before, the voice actors appear to have been given very loose direction at best on how to pronounce Qunlat. Not everybody’s going to be getting the full Lord of the Rings or Avatar or Dune⁽³⁾ coaching. If they’re lucky, they get a written pronunciation guide, which may be entirely idiosyncratic to the writer. 
Tumblr media
Mark Hildreth gave it a damn good try, but other voice actors like Rick Wasserman (the Arishok), Keith Ferguson (Arvaarad and various other qunari voices), and Felicia Day (Tallis) all give it their own damn good try. All of them have been native English-speakers, and so when confronted with an unfamiliar language, they… try to pronounce it like English.
This is a problem, because the English.
[A reading of The Chaos, a poem by the 19th century Dutch writer Gerard Nolst Trenité. Best listened to while reading a copy of the text, so you can really appreciate the level of understandable salt this man was working through over English.]
That’s why nobody can agree on how “Qunari” is pronounced. Is it with a hard K? A “kyu” sound? That’s supported by DAO as an intended pronunciation,⁽⁴⁾ but it’s not always followed. Sometimes it sounds like a “Kwu”, even. All of these are valid pronunciations in English, but English has a famously infuriating writing system that is composed of more exceptions than actual rules. 
Most languages actually aren’t like that. English-speaking kids have to spend years learning how to write, but Finnish kids just need to learn the alphabet. Once they’ve done that, they can pretty much write any word they want, because the alphabet is so consistent with how it’s actually spoken. Hangul not only has a similar one-to-one correlation, its letters even look like how you shape your mouth when you make the sound!
But hey, at least English isn’t Tibetan. My sincere condolences to those learning the language, you’ve got your work cut out for you.⁽⁵⁾
I have my own system worked out for pronouncing the language, which I’ll make explicit later. But with regards to canon: I’ll do my best to catalog things at a later date, but all pronunciations are going to be highly variable based on the source. My best advice on this is to listen to whichever performance you like best, and use that as your template. Canon is all over the place, and you can make of it what you want. 
Unfortunately, it becomes extremely all over the place in terms of spelling, as we get to everything outside of DAO and DA2’s dialog.
And my job becomes more complicated. So complicated, that I wrote an entire second post on this, then decided it was overkill. I can post it if desired, but the “Dictionary” and “Phonological Inventory” spreadsheet in the workbook of madness contains the raw facts of everything. It also provides notes on the weird differences between DA2’s spoken dialog and the item names.
Tumblr media
Before we end this post–say you want to take what’s been presented here and run with it. You want to make new words for yourself. How would you do that?
It’s finally time to talk about one more aspect of phonaesthetics: certain sounds and sound combinations are rarer or more common than others. For example, “birtend” seems like a plausible English word, partly because it contains common English letters. “Zuquxay” doesn’t seem English, even though it’s easily pronounceable by English-speakers, because it has a bunch of rare letters in it, strung together in rare ways. Changing how frequently sounds are used in a conlang will heavily impact its overall feel.
Because I am not entirely sane, I’ve constructed a frequency chart for Qunlat. Actually, several, depending on whether you want a count of consonant clusters or just distinct sounds, and whether you want content that fits with DAO and DA2, or if you want every word ever called Qunlat.
Turns out, up to a quarter of the entire language is just the letter A. 
Next time, depending on what people desire: an examination of how Qunlat begins to vary more outside of DAO and DA2’s dialog, or we move ahead to phonology. Either way, we will be properly introduced to the works of my nemesis: Philliam, a Bard!.

Footnotes
(1) Some may wonder “but what about a word like Vashoth, where you could consider shoth as its own five-letter syllable?” Well, it’s five letters, but only three sounds. I get into that a little further down the main text, under the subject of “digraphs”. If you’re wondering about the word ashkost, though, good choice! I’m pretty sure the word is split as ash-kost though, so I’m still right. :P
(2) For anyone wondering why “strengths” and “ashkaari” contains fewer consonant sounds than consonant letters, it’s because “ng”, “th”, and “sh” are two-letter combinations that each produce a single sound: You don’t pronounce “sing” as “sin-g”, or “the” as “t-he”, or “shush” as “s-hus-h”. Or at least I don’t, you do you.
(3) Though I should of course note that while the actors in Dune received packets of information from linguist David J Peterson, he didn’t have any direct interaction with the actors. He also didn’t coach their pronunciation of Arabic stuff like Madhi or Lisan al-Gaib, and hooboy, some of those are wobbly.
(4) When you’re tracking down Sten’s sword, the man who looted it has a surprised response that’s phonetically written out: “We're looking for a qunari sword.” “Kyun-what? I'm sorry, I... ah... I don't know what that--”. That would seem fairly unambiguous, but when listening back through samples from the games, Sten and the Arishok pronounce the word /kunɔri/, and you’d hope both their actors were coached on this one. I’ve also heard /kʷu/ pronunciations, not just /kju/. In fact, the only place /kju/ seems to be the unambiguous pronunciation is for “Qun” as a standalone word. As a conlanger who likes unambiguous romanization schemes, this annoys me greatly. Side note, if any of this is unfamiliar, stick around for when I talk more about phonology! I promise, it’s fun! You get to listen to strange little mouth noises on wikipedia, including the funniest little “üü” sound I’ve ever heard in my life!
(5) While English spelling has been afflicted with the pronunciations that were most common several centuries ago, written Tibetan has been largely unchanged for eight hundred years. The spoken language, however, has continued changing. This has created some wide divergences between the written and spoken languages: while the name of one of the central Tibetan province might be pronounced something like “Ü-Tsang”, it’s written as དབུས་གཙང, which is more literally transcribed as “Dbus-Gtsang”. If you’re writing or reading Tibetan, you just have to know that ahead of time. 
But don’t worry! English might get like that one day too!

❝ RP AD♡꒱ (09/24)
Hello all!! My name is Onyx and I am in search of a cool, swag, epic roleplay partner (who is 18+) that wants to also be friend outside of rp!! Information on lil ole me!;
I'm 20 years old
I go by she/her (cis female)
10ish+ years of roleplaying/writing under my belt
MOSTLY fast reply time (i sleep a lot :P)
Timezone: EST
-
What I write for: ʚ Fluff ʚ Angst ʚ Smut 〰 ʚ OC x CC (double ups ONLY!) ʚ B x B ʚ G x G ʚ NB x NB/G/B [✹IMPORTANT: I do my best to stay away from most yandere stuff, especially stuff dealing with S/A just because of my own personal trauma! Other than that, I can handle most of it!]
-
As mentioned earlier in my post, I want to be able to befriend my rp partner! I wanna know how you're doing, if you need to talk, ect.! I just want to be able to grow a friendship and not just a partnership for rp!! I don't bite! I roleplay ONLY ON DISCORD!!! I use to roleplay in tumblr DMs but then notifications wouldn't go through or somehow the DM read itself as opened and I hadn't opened it? It also is a struggle to talk outside of roleplay in tumblr DMs, lol! So because of this, I am a discord only gal!! ⟶ Since the roleplay will be taken place on discord, this means I will making a server so I can organize everything! Different channels include out-of-rp chat, an rp chat, a visuals chat (for outfits, hair styles, ect.), and others!! I've ran into this problem once, but made me realized I've never specified this in my last rp ad! I do a collab type roleplay! This means (in my head) I roleplay in the same rp universe your oc exists in! My oc and your oc could be friends in such universe or just have mutual friends in common, who knows! I've always rp'ed this way and honestly would like to keep it this way, it doesn't make anything confusing. One final thing before I get into fandoms; I don't really care about reply length? I do, but I don't. As long I see you're doing your best to reply, I don't mind! I understand life is busy but you need that shot of dopamine! I always do my best to match my partner's length in reply but typically I do a 1-2 paragraph (various lengths) as a reply. Starters are different though! If I am in charge of the starter, I typically write up and a little past the nitro word limit in discord. Do not fret though! You obviously do not need to match my 6+ paragraph starter, lol!
-
Fandom time!! I have a list of all my fandoms [here], but I am super into these right now and am desperately looking for a twst rp !! ☆ Twisted Wonderland ☆ Our Life: Beginnings & Always ☆ Dr. Stone ☆ Jujutsu Kaisen
For any fandoms listed above, here are the characters I'd like if you could play against my OC(s)!; ☓) Malleus Draconia or Trey Clover x Akako ☓) Idia Shroud x Alanis Briar ☓) Lilia Vanrouge x Senki (not a finished OC) - ☓) Baxter Ward or Cove Holden x Atlantis - ☓) Gen x Eden (DRST) ☓) Chrome x Cynthia (DRST) ☓) Ukyo x Anzu (DRST) - ☓) Satoru Gojo or Suguru Geto x Annamaria ☓) Ieiri Shok x Salem ☓) Megumi Fushiguro or Yuta Okkotsu x Eden ╰› Obviously !!! We do not have to use multiple OCs if you do not feel like it! I also see it as playing even-steven in a way, if you're using only one OC, I would like to only use one OC. Just so it's fair!!
✹ If you're interested PLEASE don't be afraid to message me on this account! <3

Dragon Age: Vows and Vengeance (Ep. 5)
Official episode transcript here
My notes while I was listening under the cut… Spoilers ahead!
For anyone with emetophobia or gets grossed out by vomit, skip from 24:11 to 24:17 if you haven't already listened to the episode
“Holy maker in a bread pan” this is the real reason I listen to this podcast
kapok = type of tree, presumably tropical
“Taash says west, and if you know her as well as I, you'd know to take her word over a map” So what I’m hearing is, if Taash says jump from a bridge, I should jump 👍
Declan: “Her treasure hunting is an art, Lord Mondraine. And I assure you, her instincts are a thing of beauty” 🥰 Mondraine: “No, Declan, actually real art is beautiful and she and this place are not!” 😐😡I hate this guy
Taash 🤝 Bellara = threatening violence against the openly racist dudes
Bloodfire Stones = sacred rubies fabled to have been forged from the scales of a dragon, in the “Ancient Temple of the Lost Dragon”. “The shadows reveal the path to the Bloodfire” 
Nooo why is there no subtitles for the “foreign tongue” 😭 at least let me read the words :( (I want you to imagine now: me in the wiki page for qunlat, pausing and rewinding the episode to carefully piece together a translation word by word, only to then realize halfway through that there’s already a translation for the entire sentence because it’s a Qunari Prayer for the Dead said by Sten in DAO🤡) “Shok ebasit hissra. Meraad astaarit, meraad itwasit. Aban aqun. Maraas shokra. Anaan esaam Qun.” = “Struggle is an illusion*. The tide rises, the tide falls. But the sea is changeless. There is nothing to struggle against. Victory is in the Qun.” *illusion or deity. In this case, since it’s said near an altar to “summon” a Temple, it’s possible that it’s intended more as the second meaning?
Ooooh Taash just casually has secret correspondence with the Orlesian nobles of the court? Woowieeeeee 
Come on Declan, all that “And what would you have me do? Mutiny against my friend?” for this? Not cool dude
Ah Drayden, never change
Pyramid? 🧐
I am once again loving the dynamic between Nadia and Drayden
THEY KNOW EACH OTHER? Did Nadia dabble with the LoF? Awww step aside Drayden, it’s Nadia’s turn to have a fun synergy with one of the Veilguard companions
“Remember our favorite dance, Nadia?” “The Dairsmuid two step? [...] As much as I'd love to, I'm in no condition to stage a jailbreak at this moment” they broke out of a prison in the capital of Rivain together?! (Psst psst Hollix in “Luck in the Gardens”, was in Dairsmuid)
Gamordan Stormrider was also in DAI in the Exalted Plains… And her location was unlocked after completing the war table mission “Gain Access to Ghilan'nain's Grove” 👀🫢
I’m assuming the qunlat that Nadia knows was taught by Taash? Awe
I JUST GOT SHIVERS. DID THEY CASUALLY PUT IN THE “IN HUSHED WHISPERS” SOUNDTRACK??? Timestamp is 21:42 in case anyone needs the info 
Drayden is afraid of spiders, can’t swim and gets seasick. They created the perfect nerd meowmeow I know people would go insane for them if they’re in the actual game
BONE SAND?
I actively avoided “kill dragons” missions in DAI but I like that Taash is not just skilled at hunting them but clearly knowledgeable about their habits/motivations etc. It feels more empathetic compared to The Iron Bull who just liked to kill them
“you're the one who brought daggers to a dragon fight” LMAO 
New Taash&Nadia lore drop: “we fought the undead in the tombs beneath Clagan's Hollow” (I wasn’t able to find any previous ref to this place, might be new!)
Taash not liking corpses. Destroying hearts of various interested Ingellvar Mourn Watch Rooks. Poor Manfred too lol
“I see your lightning, now feel my fire!” 😳 Taash don’t listen to those two you’re doing great
Yippee an episode finale that ended on a hopeful note!
I initially leaned more on Tal-Vashoth Taash, but as the episode went on I’m not so sure, they might be Vashot?
Btw no idea what to make of Taash saying the dragon is female because of her spine/coloration. Except that whoever wrote that part forgot that all winged dragons (not dragonlings or drakes) are female? That or the species underwent a major mutation these past 10 years lmao

From having a home who probably don't want him back to getting to live in a home where both of them want you to stay.. Joke really found a family.
Oh no.. he is emo
Now I'm emo too, I'm not gonna stay on this thing, because eating with family sucks. I'm glad Joke found a new family.
OMG ROSE WENT TO THE BOSSDAD
These guys were swayed by JACK aosjsjsh
On no the reveal!! The cult lady is a mastermind
Mark looks so pretty
The bgm for Aran is so sad and lonely 😭
Boi is falling for Tattoo.. he left the group.. life is not that easy
That's what happens when richer people are stomping on less rich people, She wants to protect Jack and not even Dad can protect his woman's necklace or his son.. it's sad, let's see
He finally said 'im not leaving even if you kick me out' Yes sir, go cling on to him
Not Ama eavesdropping ajshsjsj
Joke your heart eyes
When your boyfriend is a legendary thief, you can't lock him out even from your bathroom 😌
That was so domestic (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠❤

Jack is still going to be in debt/hold because of Joker ring isn't he
Oh! The ♥️ RED ♥️ shirts were for Chinese New Year OKAY
Happy New Year Jack, Joke, Ama, Toi Ting.. it's gonna get so bad
All those superstition about eating techniques were actually a foreshadowing I see
That was beautiful. God War Wanarat is so beautiful. Him sitting on floor and talking to Toi Ting was so calming the fuck down.
Oh boi, didn't ama just say don't give loans?? Smh
Aran is going to move in with Tattoo??now that both his mom and Hoi left to the shrine?

Aran is really going through the downward spiral arc, it's going to get bad
Save comes to save Hope (I had to type it sorry)
Guys, get a room 🤷🏽‍♀️ not infront of Hoi and Tattoo's salad drinks
He cried.. babygirl
This dynamic between Tattoo and Aran is so dumb and realistic
Hoi is caught in a different web
Aww here comes the dreamy light
OMYGOD THAT WAS SO WELL DONE WITH THE KIDS AND THE SMILEY ON THE TEAR SOAKED PAPER
YINWAR MYGOD JACK JOKE THAT WAS NOT THE LOVE CONFESSION I EXPECTED
And the promise!!!!!!
Yes we have a witness for the confession.
Joke contacted Coach??!!!
Coach got a redemption. Nice.
Jack is going through it..
Jack dear..
I just realised, shok means luck right?? In Thai and shok and Joke sound same.. and Jack has got Joke now..
Idk how long it's gonna last, but it is good
Save is not buying that..
Oh God the cult lady is going to ask for Jack as a pawn?? Or something?? The bgm is so scary wth
This is the worst last payment scene I've seen.. the eerie vibes, the happiness in Jack's face, the absolute cool boss acting of the Boss, and please Joke please be not waiting outside
Jack looks so pretty.. so pretty it's sad
Oh fuck Joke IS INDEED WAITING OUTSIDE
First episode, Joke was looking from far, now he is standing on the portico of Jack's place, it's nice but the queasy feels of this whole scene
I can't unhear the "shok di na" stuffs, because Jack has Joke already it's sooo stuffy choking mentally
Tf was that?? Save probably did something with the savings money? Or the land??
So.. Boss dad pawned Ama, money does run the world doesn't it??
Joke is going to have to wait..
Alright that's it.. I had to sit while the outro song plays to process this all

Dear dawsongfg,
Tumblr media
I can't give you an answer just by reading their names, but if you send them my way, I'll tell you who the shawarma thief is in no time flat!
Tumblr media
Is it okay if we call the last one "Shik Shak Shok" for short? That'll make things a lot less tedious, something tells me.

BeeTober 2023 Day 13 - Blooper
“And cut! That’s a wrap on that,” Director Yaga calls out and Suguru lets out a sigh. “Actually, that’s a wrap on everything,” Director Yaga continues and gives Suguru a thumbs up.
Right. This was the last scene they had to record for the movie, Suguru remembers now. They are done and Satoru isn’t even here. Suguru shakes his head at that because where did that thought even come from–he knows, oh how he knows–and smiles at Director Yaga.
“Thank you for your hard work,” Suguru politely says but Yaga waves him off. 
“No, thank you. That was excellent work. I hope to work together with you in the future.” There’s a notable pause. “And Gojo, I guess,” he then adds with a sigh and Suguru has to suppress a smile.
Satoru is not the easiest to work with mainly because he has too much energy for his own good, but he’s damn good at what he does.
“That reminds me,” Director Yaga mutters and turns around to look for something.
“Everything okay?” Suguru asks, tilting his head in question and he’s definitely looking forward to getting out of costume, because now that he’s no longer in character he definitely misses his bangs. Something is just missing without them.
“Yeah, yeah, I just have something for you,” Director Yaga says and when he turns back around there is a DVD in his hands. “Some scenes that didn’t make the cut. Thought you’d want to have it.”
Suguru doesn’t quite see how that relates to Satoru but he takes the DVD nonetheless.
“Thank you,” he gives back and wonders if Satoru gets his own version or if he’ll have to invite him over one of these days to watch them together.
He’ll find out, he guesses, his phone already blowing up with stupid memes from Satoru. He can just ask him later. They will all stay on the site for a few more days, just in case some footage got compromised or they need to reshoot something for other reasons so it’s not as if he can’t just invite Satoru over later, anyway.
But for now Suguru is looking forward to a quiet evening, where he can finally relax for once and maybe look through the scrapped scenes Director Yaga gave him.
He barely made it to his home when Shoko barges in, absolutely ignorant of Suguru’s wish for a quiet evening. 
“Ah, good, he gave it to you,” she says when she sees the DVD on the table and Suguru narrows his eyes at her.
“This is awfully suspicious,” he slowly says because he knows Shoko better than to think that she would care about some scrapped scenes. “What is this about?”
“Look for yourself,” she calls over her shoulder as she makes her way over to the kitchen, grabbing a drink for herself.
“You’re scaring me,” Suguru mutters because everything that puts Shoko into a slightly good mood is bound to sour his own–she thrives on his pain after all.
Her only response to that is a grin, which only makes Suguru more nervous. 
“Are you not going to watch it?” she asks, amusement still so very clear on her face and Suguru wants to burn the DVD right about now, if he’s being honest.
“I’m not sure anymore,” he honestly gives back because this can only spell trouble. But then again–Director Yaga gave this to him, so how much damage can this do, really?
“Aw, come on, I was looking forward to it,” Shoko says and Suguru gets the distinct impression that it’s not the DVD she’s looking forward to but more so his reaction to it.
Cold sweat breaks out on his forehead.
“This is going to be humiliating, right?” he mutters even as he puts the DVD in.
It starts with a black screen before a date is displayed on the screen and Suguru remembers that this was one of the very first days he and Satoru both were on set. He doesn’t think they had any scenes together that day, but he’s sure this mystery will be cleared up soon. And he’s proven right when he and Satoru show up on screen, though it’s not a scene from the movie. They are standing next to the snack table just goofing off and before Suguru can even process that the scene moves on.
“Are these bloopers?” he asks Shoko who sat down next to him by now.
“You could say that,” she cryptically gives back and Suguru fights the urge to turn the screen off.
His instinct is proven right when the next half hour is filled with nothing but him and Satoru talking to each other, laughing with each other and just goofing around in their down time.
“Fuck,” Suguru breathes out and flops down on the couch. “Fuck,” he says again, this time with more vehemence because he cannot believe how obvious he is with his crush. “Does everyone know?”
“That you two are fucking? Yes,” Shoko gives back with a shrug and Suguru shoots up from his position.
“We are not fucking!” 
“Huh,” Shoko disinterestedly says. “Could have fooled me.”
“No, Shoko, listen. We are not fucking. Gods, I wish we were but I know he doesn’t want that.”
“Oh dear,” Shoko says and now she sounds much more serious. “What do you mean he doesn’t want that? Did you watch the same scenes as I?”
“I did, that’s the problem,” Suguru groans out. “I didn’t know I’m so goddamn obvious about it, fuck. Do you think he knows?”
“If he did, you’d be boning by now,” Shoko mercilessly gives back and Suguru reaches out to smack her head but of course she moves out of the way before he can make contact.
“Don’t say that. It’s not like that.” Shoko levels him with a look. “For him,” Suguru amends, because it’s clearly more than obvious by now that he’s a lost cause when it comes to Satoru. 
Shoko’s look doesn’t let up at all.
“What?”
“Nothing,” she immediately replies and then whips her phone out. “Nothing at all.”
Her tone is happy enough that it immediately puts Suguru on edge.
“What are you doing?” he asks as she types away.
“Nothing,” she repeats and Suguru just knows that it’s going to be bad.
“Please tell me what you’re doing,” he groans out, covering his face with his hands. 
“I am doing nothing at all.”
It gets less believable the more often she says it and Suguru realises with despair that there is nothing for him to do but to accept whatever horrible machinations she has put into place.
“Will you kill me before whatever you just did comes to pass?” he asks her, his face still covered in the childish hope that if he can’t see, maybe whatever is going to happen can’t find him.
“Nope. Just so you know, Yaga gave the same DVD to Gojo.” There’s a knock on the door just as Suguru flies up in a panic. “And that’s my que to leave.”
She gets up and deftly moves out of reach of Suguru’s hands who twitch with the urge to strangle her. When she opens the door Suguru’s stomach drops when he spots a way too familiar white mop of hair.
“Hey, Shoko!” Satoru greets her but she moves past him without a look.
“I’m going to meet Utahime, do not contact me for any reason.”
“But–you invited me here?” Satoru’s voice trails off before he turns around to Suguru. “What’s up with her?” he then asks and Suguru returns to his position on the couch.
Surely Satoru will just leave now that Shoko is gone, right?
“No fucking clue,” Suguru lies like the liar he is and his stomach flips when Satoru leans over the back of the couch.
“And what’s up with you?” he wants to know, his eyes sparkling in that way Suguru loves and his fingers twitch with the urge to cover his face again. 
Or maybe reach out to Satoru.
“Nothing,” Suguru gives back, channelling his inner Shoko, though he just knows that his voice is not at all believable.
“Mh, sure,” Satoru says and then he freezes when he spots something on the table.
Suguru knows exactly what it is because the only thing currently on the table that is of any relevance is the damned DVD case. Suguru watches how Satoru’s face goes through a quite interesting journey of expressions before it settles on closed off and it immediately puts a frown on Suguru’s face. Satoru is never closed off when he’s with him. Suguru doesn’t like it.
“I see,” Satoru whispers and stands up straight again. “I’ll get out of your hair then.”
He starts to turn away from Suguru and that finally spurs him into action. He shoots up and his hand just barely manages to snatch Satoru’s in his.
“Satoru,” he gets out and it’s at least enough to stop him.
“What?” Satoru asks when Suguru stays silent, nerves stealing his voice away.
“Don’t go,” he eventually says, and even though Satoru still has his back to him, he doesn’t move away and more importantly, he doesn’t take his hand back.
Maybe he even curls his fingers around Suguru’s but that could also just be his imagination.
“And why shouldn’t I?” Satoru asks, his shoulders rising up to his ears and Suguru realises he’s nervous. Maybe just as nervous as Suguru is, but then Shoko’s words ring in his ears again.
She thought they’d been fucking all this time. She said it’s kind of very obvious and she wasn’t just talking about Suguru. So maybe, just maybe–
“Because I don’t want you to,” Suguru says and adjusts his grip on Satoru’s hand so that it’s more like hand-holding instead of simply stopping him from leaving. His heart beats dangerously in his chest when Satoru goes along with it.
“But you’ve seen it,” Satoru whispers out and Suguru wonders where the loud, boisterous, way too full of himself Satoru went.
It seems that even he is not exempt from being nervous every now and then.
“I have,” he agrees. “And according to Shoko this is Directo Yaga’s way of letting us know that everyone knows we’re fucking.”
Satoru flinches.
“But you don’t–” he trails off when Suguru squeezes his hand.
“And I thought you don’t,” he softly gives back and that is finally enough to get Satoru to turn back around to him. 
“Why the hell wouldn’t I?” he demands to know and Suguru tries his best to keep a straight face.
“Well, why the hell wouldn’t I?” he shoots back and properly threads their fingers together, growing more confident by the second that it will be welcome.
A smile starts to creep up on Satoru’s face before it turns into one of horror and Suguru’s heart misses a beat.
“Do you mean to tell me that we could have been fucking all this time!” Satoru yells out and it startles a laugh out of Suguru.
Trust him to focus on that, he fondly thinks and then pulls on Satoru’s hand until he gets with the program and climbs over the back of the couch to lay on Suguru. He’s lighter than Suguru expected him to be with all the sweets he usually stuffs into himself and Suguru doesn’t hesitate to wrap his arms around him.
“Could have been doing this all this time, too,” he whispers into Satoru’s soft hair and Satoru goes boneless on top of him with a sigh.
“True,” he mutters and then digs his bony chin into Suguru’s sternum to look at him.
Suguru wonders if his heart will ever get used to having that gaze directed at him. He hopes not.
“So, feelings,” Satoru says and Suguru groans. 
“Do we have to?” he wants to know because it’s not as if Satoru is very forthcoming with his feelings on a normal basis. He’d rather hide all of them behind fake cheer instead of opening up to anyone else.
“We wasted weeks, so I think yes,” Satoru gives back and Suguru wonders if he’s ever seen him look this soft before. 
“Fine, feelings then. I have some. For you,” Suguru cheekily says and in retaliation Satoru digs his chin more firmly in. “Ouch, Satoru, what the hell.”
“Be serious,” Satoru whines out and Suguru can feel himself soften at that.
“I am,” he promises and moves his hand so he can scratch Satoru’s scalp. “I have feelings for you. I’m in love with you,” he admits and with Satoru’s gaze on him like that it’s almost not hard at all.
“Like you should be,” Satoru says, but he can’t fool Suguru. He felt how his breath stuttered in his chest at the admission. 
“So I take it’s one sided then?” Suguru asks though he knows the answer.
It might be nice to hear it, though.
“Not quite,” Satoru admits and moves his head, putting his ear right over Suguru’s heart. “I’m in love with you, too.”
He must have heard how Suguru’s heart stumbled at that but he doesn’t comment on it. Suguru keeps the scratching motion up and he hopes he’ll get to hold Satoru like this for the rest of their lives.
“Want to watch our best of again?” Satoru asks after a while and Suguru snorts out a laugh.
“Our best of?”
“It’s like a documentation of us falling in love, isn’t it?” he wonders and it takes Suguru’s breath away to think of it like that. He should probably thank Director Yaga and the team for this, later.
“Kinda, yeah,” he agrees and fishes for the control to press play. 
Now with Satoru in his arms like that it’s actually quite a fun watch and Suguru finds himself wondering if they’ll play this at their wedding. 
But that is a thought for much later, he decides and presses a kiss to Satoru’s forehead before he concentrates back on the screen to see it all unfold.
