abi’s three hundred one hundred follower celebration: choose your three favorite charmed ships | chris halliwell & bianca atwood

the absolutely chokehold these two have on me. enemies to lovers. changing sides and becoming a better person. finding love when you didn’t think yourself worthy of it. finding this one piece of happiness is a world destroyed and having to sacrifice it to the save the world that never did anything for you. risking your love on the hope that you’ll meet again in a new world.

idk if this fit ur blurb request but can i request a first bf steve with reader. they have a fight and reader thinks theyre over but steve and them talk through it bc he doesnt want to break up?

thank you for your request! I love this, miscommunication + idiots in love 💕

——-

You close your eyes as you lean you head on the cold tile of the shower. The warm spray of water falls on the nape of your neck and down your back much like the tears that cascade down your eyes. You squeeze them shut when your heart pangs with pain once more. Steve and you are over, the stupid fight you had earlier in the afternoon triggering the breakup. How funny is it that your first ever fight is also your last?

Stepping out of the shower, you go through the motions of getting dressed and ready for bed. Your eyes are tired from crying, but the tears don’t stop as you recall the end of your conversation earlier.

Can we just leave it? I’m done. Steve said, running a hand through his hair and motioning for you to get in his car.

He wasn’t there to pick you up today, leaving you stranded in the rain. He claimed you didn’t tell him you worked until 4pm instead of 5 today so he showed up an hour late for you but on time for him. You told him you’d mentioned it yesterday and the arguing had started then. Granted, you had an awful day at work, and from the tension on Steve’s shoulders he had a bad day too. Or as it seemed maybe he was already planning on breaking up with you, and the fight gave him his chance.

The drive back to your house was silent and tense, as you held your breath to avoid crying in front of him and all but ran to the front door as soon as he parked. You didn’t take off your rain soaked clothes for another hour, too heartbroken and busy crying your eyes out to mind. It was only when you started to shiver that you went upstairs and took a long hot shower. It didn’t soothe the ache on your chest one bit.

Hair towel-dry and brushed you leave the bathroom and head to the kitchen to have some water when the doorbell rings. There’s still a light drizzle outside, and you know you didn’t order any takeout so you’re more than confused about who could be ringing your doorbell. Leaving the glass of water on the kitchen counter and pretending you don’t look a puffy mess from crying, you cross the living room to the front door.

Steve stands on the other side, one hand in his pocket and the other holding a plastic bag with unknown contents inside. His hair has some droplets of rainwater clinging to the ends and so do his eyelashes. He wears a dark blue sweatshirt and jeans, and a face so pretty your heart aches at what you lost.

“Steve? What are you doing here?” You ask, eyebrows meeting in the middle as you furrow them in confusion.

“I wanted to talk to you, I don’t like how we left things earlier?” The hand that was in his pocket scratches his chin, his eyes wide and vulnerable as they look at you.

You twist your lips to keep yourself from crying. “You want to break up officially then? Ok, do it.” You wraps your arms around your chest, protecting yourself from what will come next.

“Break up?” Steve’s eyebrows raise towards his hairline comically, mouth falling open in shock at your words. “Babe, what the hell?”

“Don’t be mean, Steve.” You shake your head and press your lips together as a tear falls down your cheek like a small traitor. “You already said ‘I’m done’, I got it.”

Steve, wonderful and beautiful Steve takes a step closer to you, face a mixture of confusion and pain. “Baby, you think we broke up? Just from that fight?”

“What else am I supposed to think Stevie?” You whisper, looking away from his sweet brown eyes and swallowing hard the knot in your throat.

“Honey, I drove you home. I would’ve hugged you goodbye but you ran out of the car before I could.” Steve shakes his head. “I thought your were pissed at me, not that you thought we broke up. Can we talk?”

You blink a few times at him as your mind tries to catch up. Steve’s always been a gentleman, of course you’d think it was normal for him to drive you home even if he broke up with you; the rest, well, you didn’t stay in his car for him to say anything else did you. Nodding and stepping back from the door, you let Steve in and close the door behind you.

Now in the warm light of the living room, Steve has a clear look at your red-rimmed eyes and the way his face falls brings fresh tears to blur your vision. “Oh, baby.” Steve frowns and pulls you to his chest, hugging you flush against him as you let yourself cry. “I’m sorry, I’m here and I’m not going anywhere.”

“We were both so angry, when you said ‘I’m done’ I assumed—” You take a step back and look at him, his face pained from seeing you in pain.

Steve’s hands hold your face gently, the kiss he presses on your forehead is just as soft. “I meant I’m done fighting, not that I’m done with us. You’re the best thing in my life, you know that.”

Your boyfriend —you can’t believe you thought you’d have to say ex before it— leads both of you to the couch, where you sit down facing each other. Steve takes you hands in his as you lean your face on the headrest, embarrassed, happy but still hurt from the heartbreak you put yourself through hours before. “I’m sorry, we were both under a lot of stress, I forgot you said 4pm and I shouldn’t have let it start a fight between us.”

You shake your head, “I shouldn’t have gotten mad either, I was already annoyed from work and let it get the best of me. I’m sorry too, Stevie.”

“No, I’m sorry.” Steve shakes his head, “I know you like clarity, and I was very vague earlier. I should’ve said I wanted to stop fighting, instead of saying I’m done. I mean it baby, I wanted to end our fight not our relationship.”

You nod, “I shouldn’t have assumed, but I was scared to ask. I thought you found an excuse to dump me.”

“And be an idiot who lost the most perfect girl in the world?” Steve shakes his head and you give him a small smile. “It was our first fight, that’s all, it doesn’t mean my feelings for you changed.”

“I’ll call you to remind you next time my schedule changes.” You whisper, shifting closer to Steve, “I should’ve done that today.”

“And I’ll write it down, somewhere I won’t forget.” Steve’s hands find your hips and pull you closer until your legs are thrown over his and he’s looking down at you, an adoring look in his eyes. “I love you.”

You hold his cheek and smile, “I love you so much.”

Steve closes the gap between the two of you, his lips capturing yours in a soft but passionate kiss. His arms wrap around you as he leans closer, humming against your mouth when you run your fingers through his hair. He kisses you until you’re breathless and his lips place scattered pecks on your cheek, your chin and one more on your nose. It makes you laugh and the smile Steve gives you in return could power up all of Hawkins.

Rewinding to the memory of him standing in your doorway makes you pause. “What was in that bag you brought?”

Steve’s smile turns sheepish as he leans in to kiss you again, a sweet thing that gives you butterflies. “Well, I uh– thought you were pissed at me so I brought some snacks and a movie so you could forgive me.”

You smile widely at him, stomach flipping incessantly and heart beating loudly with affection. This man really does own your heart, no wonder thinking about losing him wrecked you. “You are the best thing in my life, you know? You don’t need snacks to get me to forgive you but they’re appreciated.”

Steve chuckles and wraps you up in his arms, face pressed to your neck. “Sorry I made you cry.”

“It’s okay.” You smile, soaking in his warmth and breathing in his familiar scent; feeling at ease, and safe. “We really need to communicate better though.”

Steve’s laugh is a beautiful sound next to your ear.

ararararararar uuuggghhhh shes so terrible, anything to torture him back. i luv luv luv!!!!

will gladly elaborate on this, but im convinced that after this pats sister is doing everything within her power to recreate that night. every party she gets just that little bit drunker, grinds just a bit more scandalously, flirts just a bit more obviously. anything to get a rise out of him, because as much as she pretends not to with her fake tears, she loves it when he gets mean

i think one night shes had a bit too much to drink and has been flirting way too much with matt from the swim team (who btw looks an awful lot like art... but hes to caught up in his jealousy to bother with that rn). this time art isnt dealing with her shit, he just walks over and puts her over his shoulder, telling her its bedtime. right in the middle of matts sentence, talking about the upcoming swim meet or something, she really wasnt listening. shes making more of a fuss about it than usual, complaining about him being controlling, and really shouldnt he just be happy that youre trying to fuck someone other than him!!!! isnt this what he wanted!!!! (they both know its not lol)

i think she lets it slip, she forgets that she was supposed to have been blackout drunk and clueless, but she begs him to let her see his pretty cock again. youll show him yours if he shows you his :))) drunkenly slurring it out when shes sitting on his bed. i think he would get so pissed at her for making him feel so guilty for so long. hes felt like a huge creep, a perv, felt like he had taken advantage of her. when in reality she really is just a spoiled brat and a desperate slut.

i need him to like slap me in the heat of the moment, not super hard of anything but just right across my cheek. i need him to feel so bad right away, ready to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness. he doesnt know what came over him, hes never done anything like that before. and then i need his eyes to darken when he realized my only reaction is a loud moan and telling him to pls do it again, harder. :))))

-🐞

GODDDDDD I actually like had a physical reaction to this it’s so serious.

You know you fucked up the second you say it, when you’re sitting on his bed looking up at him and you see the recognition in his eyes. Sobers you up real fucking quick. And there’s nothing to say, so you’re just quiet, practically holding your breath.

It stings when his hand slaps across your cheek, and your eyes fill with water and you’re holding onto the hot stinging skin like, oh!

And in an instant he’s literally on his knees in front of you, big hands wrapped around your knees as he apologizes again and again and again.

“I’m so sorry, that was— there’s no fucking excuse,” he’s stammering, mumbling, feels like he might puke over it. Because he hit you. And he’s never felt so awful in his life. He’s the worst kind of person— he let his anger take over into pure basal instincts.

But then your legs are parting, you moan softly when his grip on your knees tightens. “‘S okay, Art,” you assure. “Do it again. Punish me for lying, for being a slut and letting you feel guilty about it. Hit me harder.”

It only makes him angrier, makes all of the guilt wash away. He grabs your jaw tight, makes you whimper. “You’re fucking disgusting.” You nod, agreeing. You’d agree with whatever he’d say, honestly. He pops your cheek again, makes a soft moan escape your lips.

He shouldn’t like it as much as he does. But god, you make him feel insane. He squeezes your jaw in his grip, makes your eyes widen at the pressure and sting, then drops you completely. You collapse back onto his bed, still holding your cheek.

“I’m serious, this is the last fucking time I put up with you,” he says, but even he doesn’t believe it. He’s still seething as he turns out the lights, as he sleeps on the pile of blankets he had laid out on the floor anticipating you coming back to his dorm anyway.

You stay awake, pretend not to hear him fisting his cock beneath the blankets, pretending he doesn’t groan your name muffled into the pillows when he cums.

WELCOME TO THE BRAND NEW SEGMENT OF MY BLOG CALLED "INTELLECTUAL TOÑO TIME‼️‼️"😎😎🤓‼️⁉️🔥🔥

in this segment i will show you a song i really like, ill translate it if needed, ill explain/analyze the lyrics and apply them on to my favourite characters!

in the translation, you might see this sign (+), it means that i will later add details that might have gotten lost in the translation or stuff like that. and if you see something between brackets like these [...], its probably some small notes i leave to carify some small detail or explain the use of certain words.

the first song will be "Carismatico" by the argentinian band Babasonicos and the character will be Johnny Cage :D

the translated lyrics are the following:

i thought i saw two clowns

with scared faces, closing the shop

pretend (+), they have their costumes on

they are going to the circus to get the camels

they look a bit spooked

(straight) out from a painting that is about to fade

pretend, they are very sweaty

they carry a bucket with confetti

i have to learn to pretend more

and to not show my emotions

i have to learn to pretend more

and to pilot (+) what i think

i try to reach a door

and i hear a swarm of flies whistling

pretend, they are buzzing my name

we have to leave and i dont know how (+)

i have to learn [the rest of the chorus]

…

[chorus x3 -> as in 3 times, not the silly face]

[theres a secret second chorus that plays over the first one, i will add it by puting between parenthesis]

(some nights im easy)

(i dont abide by limits (+))

(some nights im easy)

i have to learn to pretend more

(i dont abide to limits)

…

i have to learn to pretend more

(i dont abide by limits)

i have to learn to pretend more

and to pilot what i think

ok so now on to clarifications

on the first (+) you see, theres the word "pretend" (or in the original lyrics, "disimula"). in this case it is a way of saying something like "pretend you didnt see/hear it" or "pretend it doesnt affect you"

the second (+) is for the word "pilot" ("pilotear" in spanish). it is an expression used to say something like "manage/stabilize the situation" in the way a pilot would stabilize a plane when going through turbulences (in this case the turbulences would be his thoughts)

third (+), the original lyrics do not actually say that but i had no idea how to translate it + google translate and word reference were not helping, so i had to change it in order to not put a whole ass explanation in the middle of the lyrics. the original text is something along the lines of "we have to leave and i dont know where to leave through". im not even sure if thats grammatically correct but what its trying to say is that he does not know where the exit is.

fourth (+), i genuinely dont know XD. i confess i used google translate for this one

if you are curious about the secret chorus its from the song "Yegua"

now ANALYSIS TIME‼️

the song talks mostly abot social anxiety and feeling like everyone is watching everything you do. at first it would seem like the concept of social anxiety has nothing to do with the egocentric, confident and cocky Johnny Cage, but youd be wrong. in my headcanons, he grew up as an undiagnosed autistic kid in a small town inthe fucking 90's, of course he has social anxiety. he just made himself be this big extroverted and confident person to make up for it. hes constantly worrying about how people percieve him (in his looks, in the way he talks, in the way he moves), about people talking about him behind his back (yk celebrity shit + this can be connected with the flies mentioned in the song), about his emotions being too big, about being too intense, being too much. he was around people who told him he was "bad" (annoying, loud, dumb, etc.) so much that it became a part of his subconsious, a part of his thoughts. they hunt his every move, a constant monolgue of every tiny thing he does wrong. specially when he was younger, this thoughts would get so intense that they would overwhelm him, but it doesnt happen very often anymore. everyone usually assumes he has a pretty high self esteem but he has just gotten really good at hiding his insecurities under layers upon layers of braggings, fake self confidence, borderline narcissistic tendencies and a lot of jokes. he basically made himself charismatic, a.k.a, the name of the song. also, if you listen to that second chorus its kinda like a response to the main chorus. it refers to someone that parties a lot and doesnt care about anything or anyone. it is a conversation between a very insecure and shy person (the first chorus) and an over confident and social person. alternatively, it is a conversation between John Carlton and Johnny Cage.

aside from the lovely lyrics, this song is AWESOME when it comes to the music. it genuinely makes me go insane like AAAHSVAAH i highly recommend listening to it with headphones

i think thats all i had to say about it :P

The King Steps Out (1936)

Ahhhhhhhh, this one was absolutely delightful (๑>◡<๑)

But before I properly talk about the film, I need to talk a bit about Sissy (1932) which is what its an adaptation of. Sissy was originally an austrian operetta (which was itself based on a preexisting comedy called Sissys Brautfahrt) and was a pretty big hit, but because the composer was a jewish man in 1930s austria, they had to stop putting it on at some point and so they decided to sell the rights to it to Universal Studios, who then produced The King Steps Out. I was aware of the operetta the whole time and I doubted that I would be able to find a full recording of it but I atleast wanted to listen to the songs and review those, but I couldnt find them either so I just made my peace with the fact that I would have to leave it out of my list, but then I decided to look for it one last time after I had finished watching the movie and before I started writing this, and guess what. yeah, I found all the songs after all. So my next post post will be about Sissy, but as of writing this one, I havent listened to it yet, so I'm not gonna be bringing it up again.

Anyway, let's finally get into The King Steps Out

This film starts off with Helene (whos called Helena here) being called over to Franz Joseph's (whos called Francis here) birthday, which is being celebrated in an estate near some small town in the middle of nowhere, to be engaged with him at the behest of their mothers even though she's already in love with one of Franz Joseph's servants. Elisabeth refuses to let her sister get married to a man she doesn't love, so when Helene and their mother travel to austria, she concocts a plan to follow them and prevent the engagement, and she also enlists their father to help since he does not like the idea of one of his faughters marrying into the imperial family. Once there, Elisabeth manages to get into the estate by pretending to deliver a dress for Helene and ends up catching Franz Joseph's eye. From then on the film is mostly those two being cute together, a good chunk of the middle portion is just them hanging out at a carneval-type thing that the nearby town is putting on for the emperor's birthday while no one recognizes him. Them being cute together is occasionally interrupted by Sophie planning the engagement and stuff but it doesnt really amount to anything; the movie ends with Franz Joseph introducing Elisabeth as his fiancee and future empress and everyone is extremely happy about it, even Max, and Sophie and Helene are not even mentioned.

So, the story is kinda weak and honestly, most of the characters arent great, but Im wasnt bothered by it because this was really a romcom that was mostly carried by Elisabeth and Franz Joseph having great chemistry together. Grace Moore as Elisabeth is absolutely delightful, she's so mischievious and silly but also has this sense of sophistication and grace about her. Very wonderful, I could not stop smiling whenever she was on screen. Franchot Tone as Franz Joseph though was... weird. Again, he had good chemistry with Elisabeth and I even think he's fairly charismatic, but idk. there was something kinda off about him. He had a few of these really bad, really sleezy moments and one of them was his first interaction with Elisabeth, which happens quite early in the film and its just a very bad first impression. Basically, after she's managed to get into the estate, Elisabeth goes into the garden to pick some roses for Helene before she speaks to her, even though theres a sign next to them saying its forbidden to pick them, and Franz Joseph and a servant of his see her from a window and he tells his servant that he should go and arrest her and bring her up to his study because he wants an excuse to talk to her. Idk, I just thought that was weird and kinda gross.

I will say, I do really like what happens once Elisabeth is in the study. While she's being brought up there by the servant, she's complaining about getting arrested and hyperbolically asking what kind of punishment the emperor has in store for her for daring to pick his roses, then the servant leaves her alone with Franz Joseph and she, thinking that he's just another servant, starts complaining about the emperor. Eventually she's like "I'm getting impatient, can you tell that emperor to get here quickly so I can find out what's gonna happen to me already" and Franz Joseph is like "yeah sure" and he steps out of the room, then comes back to formally announce the emperor, steps out again before coming back in like "so, I heard you wanted to speak to me, huh?" That was very silly, I really liked that

Overall though, their relationship is pretty fun and those few weird moments dont ruin it for me. Its very much based on teasing each other and witty banter, which I found really enjoyable to watch

That being said, I thought the ending of the movie was pretty bad. I kinda forgot what exactly the circumstances were that lead up to this, but Franz Joseph ends up more or less bullying Elisabeth into having a birthday dinner with him at the inn she's staying at, and when he insists that she drink to the emperor's health she's like "you already insisted that I eat with you, now you're insisting I drink with you, what are going to insist on next?" but then he does get her to atleast toast, and thenhe says he wants to kiss her and she has to be like "no, I said i wouldnt kiss you!" And this isnt banter or teasing or anything, its so oddly unpleasant for the ending of a romcom, I hate it. Especially when you consider that they get engaged basically right after that and then the movie ends. Still, I didnt mind it too much immediately after I was done watching, I wouldve probably forgotten it already if I didnt have to write this review, so I'll probably be able to rewatch this film without too many issues, just not very soon. I'll give it a few years until I'm back in the mood for this one.

Before I forget, this film was adapted from an operetta, so there were songs as well. Honestly, I dont have too much to say about them, I think there were like six or seven that were all pretty alright, and I think my favorite one was called "Call to Arms". Elisabeth sings it with a bunch of soldiers during her and Franz Joseph's carneval date after he basically challenged her to show him her charms and seduction skills, its was a pretty fun song.

One last thing that I want to mention before I wrap this up is, this movie is only an hour and 25 minutes long but it felt like it was longer than that when I watched it, but I dont mean that in a bad way at all because I loved just getting wrapped up in this fluffy little story for an extended period of time. It only started dragging a little during the ending, but that's probably because of how unpleasant I found it.

That's pretty much it, now onto the three small things I couldnt fit into the main post:

Max played a pretty big role here and I did quite like him too, even though most of his screentime were just beer jokes. At the start of the film, before they go off to austria together, Elisabeth makes him promise not to drink beer during their journey but then he just keeps drinking it haha. I usually don't find jokes like that funny at all, and I didnt find them funny this time either, but idk, I did find them kinda charming

I didnt really like the costuming, Elisabeth is the only one who gets consistantly good outfits, except for the Silver Dress which I find very insulting because theyve been hyping it up the whole time and then she finally wears it at the end and it looks bad. I was expecting it to be the iconic dress (even though I would not describe it as silver) because this movie just seems like it would have that dress in it, but then it was just this pretty unremarkable dress made out of some really cheap-looking, shimmering fabric. Very disappointing.

Franz Joseph calls a Romani woman the g-slur. He gets his palm read tat the carneval and then when she goes to read Elisabeth's palm as well, she refuses so she leaves but Franz Joseph insists that she do it and he uses that word to call the woman over. I just wanted to mention that so that the people who go to watch it after reading my post don't get jumpscared by a slur in the middle of watching this cute old romcom. I dont remember anything else that was overtly offensive like that though

[misqnon]

its march :3 (side note i think its funny that i chose march .. as a name.. to call myself. because i just like the name (and secretly i was thinking of the character from to you, my immortal/to your eternity) but it.. it was just march. march just ended. i only realized this connection yesterday.)

you would be CORRECT..!! see its Obvious. i think i would be way more embarrassed to pretend like ur wrong or gloss over ur guess bc thats ... .. the 2nd one just proves u right and the first one... is... is humiliating .... i will not go off anon tho this is comfy for me <3 (another side note. 20 minutes after giving myself a name . for ease. i was so embarrassed and ashamed LOL. like wow... i named myself when its already so obvious who i am....)

im really not much of a shipper tbh, especially with the straw hats cuz i love to see them as having familial relationships or just being real close friends but!!! one piece has definitely awakened something in me.. to ship characters. bc before i would never ship characters in media. i have.. various reasons for this. but the one piece fandom is so into shipping it has rubbed off on me a bit. i cant help it. i love hannyabul x magellan.

zoro is the perfect mix of cool and goofy, its so wonderful!!! using 3 swords is like the silliest thing in theory and then he busts out the most awesome moves with it and its like wow .. look at him. i cant imagine being zoro levels of bad at directions tho that is... impressive... /lh. DO PEOPLE CHOOSE LEAST FAVORITE STRAW HATS??? HOW DO THEY DO THAT .. tbh i dont consider people old til theyre in like their 50's or 60's (partly bc my parents are nearing their mid 60's and i see them as eternally youthful) but i feel like old man yaoi can include middle aged men!??? also tbh rayleigh (when hes old man-ified...) is really hot.. like young rayleigh is fine but old man rayleigh??? wow....

GOOD THING UR IN WHOLE CAKE ISLAND ARC SO U GET TO SEE KATAKURI SOON!!! cuz omg.... he is so lovely. he deserves so much love. crocodile is so popular!! i get the hype n i used to love him like that too.. but my interest has faded.. 😔 i do love the trans man croc and crocodad theories tho theyre so fun even if theyre not true. i love to imagine dragon (oh my god imagine dragons ...) as a guy whos still in love with his ex. i think that would be so silly .. and if his ex was croc??? that would be even sillier ... theyre perfect.

don't worry i have the sanji tiktoks saved for the day i work up courage 🫡!! pls DO send me more op stuff i love it !!!!

YES YES YES YES THATS THE WXACT VIDEO I WATCHED AHIFHSDJD!!! i was rly converted into a dub liker by That Alone!!!!

im real picky about voice acting tbh and japanese just makes it easier for me to like bc they have way cooler sounding voices. that "luffy... help me" scene with nami in arlong park will forever sound better to me in the sub rather than the dub . the voice crack!!! the helplessness!!! the way she squeaked it out, like it was the most painful thing to ask for help!!! ugh... big fan. i looked it up just now to rewatch and yeah i cried a bit 😎. also i just noticed her tears are rolling down her neck that is so real. anyways back to luffy,, yeah his voice acting makes him sound kinda more like... mature?? perhaps?? and he is a guy with endless youth and childish energy.. i dont like a luffy that sounds like. a teenager ... ofc i say all this having never watched a full episode of the dub so i could be super off LOL

the live action seems to play nami and zoro as much bigger grumps and ive heard zoro doesnt joke around much and im.... honestly rly worried to watch and be disappointed by that. although tbh nami not being super goofy makes sense to me .. zoro... my beloved zoro.. mackenyu (?) is a perfect zoro in terms of looks so i just hope i love his characterization of him too!!

i watched the april fools video!!!! i recognize that blob but idr the comic name.. very silly though i loved it. i guess i will have to do some pirating.. yarr mateys.

i can sit and watch shortform content for like 6 hours straight but as soon as i feel like i have to pay attention because im afraid of missing any context. suddenly my brain is out the window. i cant handle it anymore. ALSO IVE NEVER SEEN THAT COLORSPREAD??? DOFFY TONGUE PIERCINGS CANON??????

i ALSO loved younger joseph like he was so fun and goofy!!! and then he comes back as a gross old man who not only cheated but cheated with a MUCH younger woman.. and i was like wow!!!! suddenly you are disgusting!!! i will never pity that old man >:( (i will a little)

taking sanji away from oda and dressing him like a doll is Perfect. wonderful analogy. i love it. i keep thinking about dressing characters up like dolls so its topical to me specifically.

admittedly even as a transmasc person i didnt pick up on yamato being a trans guy at first. but all i had to do was look it up.. and read some ppls thoughts on it . and now i will defend him to the ends of the earth. its not hard to learn things that change ur perspective in this age of the internet !! i also agree he's done yamato dirty a few times . honestly when i see people listing reasons yamato isnt trans as like "he was drawn in a womens spread" or "he only identifies as a man because he idolizes a man" its. first of all its so exhausting. bc they always say the same few things. but also!! why did oda have to do him dirty like that!! 😭😭. i genuinely think that him being in a womens spread is probably just transphobia on oda's part (yes i think u can be transphobic towards ur own characters). but the whole "hes not trans because he wants to be *this* man not just *a* man" is so Weird?? like i usually love things being up to readers interpretation (even/especially lgbtq rep tbh) but i think yamato being trans could have been left up to interpretation in a better way?? or like he couldve just said "im a guy" at any point without the whole "because of this man i idolize" thing tacked on. idk if any of this makes sense. I'm trying to explain without spoiling anything LOL. hopefully i succeeded and ur still mostly spoiler free..

i havent written for any op characters before but i can imagine how easy it is!!! and somehow people still butcher their characters LOL its fucking insane. (im bitter)

law!!! yes hes SUPER popular. tbh i liked him real quick after the timeskip. it didnt take much for him to become one of my favorite characters!! all he has to do is make a shocked face every time he ends up going along with the straw hats antics. that is enough. sanji making sandwiches when theyre talking abt the alliance and law says "i dont like bread!!" and then his face of horror when he realizes what hes done .... its so beautiful... i love law and straw hat dynamics!!!

YEAH THATS FROM ONE PIECE PARTY. he actually shows up a lot in that series. i couldnt find all of it online but of what i could find... he was in almost every chapter. it was great. another amazing one piece party moment with law is. the sauna scene where they ask about his tattoos... i . i. i cant even explain how funny it is to me. my explanation could never do it justice.

actually a tierlist sounds Genius.. i am going to make a tierlist. wait for me... i will send it.. whenever im done .. although i dont kno w how to send images... ill find out .

choso is seriously the love of my life (i have many) hes so .. he is so special to me. i have been drawing for a large portion of my life but i spent a long time not taking it seriously out of fear . fanart has reignited my ambition to get better at art!!! its great. thank u hyperfixationions. thank u special interests. thank u audhd.

ok honestly ive never abt eye colors?? i saw recently that robins eyes are actually supposed to be brown not blue tho.. and like... wow... both are so lovely i cant decide what i like more.

to give u an answer though i will brainstorm what eye colors i think they all have!!

luffy: tbh.. like a light reddish brownish color.. i have reasons for this but i cant tell u yet.

nami: a soft orange. she is just so orange. or green!! like the leaf on an orange..

zoro: i... i have no idea for him??? grey?? white?? pink???? green?? im just listing colors?? actually white sounds pretty cool tho.. or maybe a super pale yellow?? that also sounds cool to me..

usopp: his eyes r definitely yellow or green

sanji: ive seen blue and brown for him but tbh as a blue eyed dirty blonde.. i like brown eyes better. i choose brown

chopper: theyre brown. he has big doe eyes. i love deer and their freaky giant eyelashed eyes.

robin: yeah blue or brown are both lovely on her!! tbh i loved her pre timeskip design especially bc the highlights in her hair matched her eyes.. and it was such a nice contrast with her skin color. so i have to choose blue.

franky: my blue eyed king. i love u american boy. they match his hair

brook (for funsies, despite never seeing his eyes): hes gotta have something wacky... rainbow eyes... rainbow.. yes rainbowm.. perfect . ok but actually if i were to choose id choose purple. light purple.

overall i think i chose pretty basic answers (lotta brown and blue). i love brown eyes they r so pretty . also this was very fun to think about???? thank u for asking??? pls tell me what ur headcanons r!!

no yeah i thought possibly it was a name but i was like “haha march anon. bc its march. yea”

jvbhc IT WASNT OBVIOUS WHO YOU WERE TO ME i did not have a guess at all until you said it was obvious and then i got a reply on my post that same day after that that had ur similar typing style and i was like. 👁️oh. KJFNKDSN but yes ur free to stay on anon if u want!! but my dms are always open too 👍

i was a big shipper when i was like. a teenager. and then i grew out of it UNTIL ONE PIECE…IDK WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED AND IM REALLY EMBARRASSED ABOUT IT </3 THOUGHT I WAS OVER THIS DAMN STUFF!! i jokingly refer to zosan as my one piece yaoi to my friends. they hate it. so do i,

p.s. the end of that paragraph. took me for a loop. i . WAS NOT EXPECTING HANNYABUL X MAGELLAN SKVNFKD BUT SO TRUE. SO TRUE ‼️

zoro IS a perfect balance its no wonder he’s so well liked (even tho...a lot of dudebros seem to ignore his silly side). whenever i ask someone their favorite one piece character im just expecting them to say zoro tbh. like yea that’s the correct answer. KDNKS not really but its definitely the one i see being most popular. and YES his 3 swords are cool enough but the earrings. does oda know how hard he went giving zoro 3 gold dangly earrings on one ear. like does he know

and you’re right about rayleigh. my friends tell me i am an old man chaser and therefore i am biased but u see my vision. he’s literally hotter when he’s old. it’s the silver fox look.

I KNOW I GOTTA BE SO CLOSE. AHHAGHHH. when i get to katakuri best believe the liveblog will go crazy

my interest has kinda faded with croc too as he hasnt shown up as much…but i know he comes back and when he DOES show up im always so pleasantly surprised i gotta list him. I 1000% think he’s trans (though i dont believe the part about him being luffy’s mom. however. i do enjoy the content that comes from it bc its an interesting concept. and dragon as his ex works weirdly well and is so fucking funny imagining dragon (oh my god i did it too…) missing his ex. 

WOOHOO!!!! AWAITING THE SANJITOKS WITH BATED BREATH. i love that the brook video is making its way around bc its actually a joy. sub does sound “cooler” usually but it just sounds so foreign to me at this point (not foreign in the literal sense of being a diff language. like. just sounds Wrong after being so used to dub.) hold on i need to watch that scene sub now [...]

OKAY. SO. TWO VERY POWERFUL SCENES: i watched both nami’s “help me” at arlong park and robin’s “i want to live” at enies lobby in both sub and dub just now…and for those two in particular. damn theyre actually ALL GOOD?? LIKE ALL REALLY WELL DONE?? although. my favorite dub moment by far. is robin’s “i want to live” in dub. her english voice is my fav compared to the sub by far. if you havent heard it i HIGHLY recommend you check it out like please. for me. literally gives me chills every. time.

tbh that is one of my only major issues with the live action. i actually prefer live action luffy (DONT KILL ME. ITS ONLY BY A LITTLE BIT. INAKI IS JUST SO WONDERFUL AND ITS A COOL ALTERNATE TAKE TO HIS CHARACTER. HE’S..NICER. MORE KIND? BUT NOT IN A WAY THAT I FEEL ERASES MANGA/ANIME LUFFY) tbh the live action tweaked each character a bit. nami is more serious and grumpy, zoro is WAY TOO EDGY?? (zoro is the one i was least happy with) and isnt boisterous nor does he laugh enough (esp for early/pre ts zoro) he does great with the action scenes though. usopp is the closest but he feels more like. suave about his lying whether than nervous? i dont mind it tho. jacob is great. taz is a good sanji but melontee once called him “chad british sanji” and now i cant get tht terrible phrase out of my head KJDNFKVN it really is a fun ride tho!! 

YES THAT COLORSPREADDDD i saw once that apparently the color spreads arent “canon” but whatever. thts not the point. the point is oda has drawn him with tongue piercings which mean he has considered doffy with tongue piercings. its canon to Me

im literally planning to write a fic where sanji goes back to kamabakka with the strawhats and gets forced into doing Kamabakka Island Things (read: gay shit) by Iva even tho he’s embarrassed bc his crew his there. rewriting kamabakka to be better is my favorite past time

u did a good job with the yamato explanation, i already was aware of a lot of that/dont feel spoiled at all! and i agree completely to all of those points. i feel like he Almost wanted to do trans rep but maybe wanted an out ?? or was too scared to go full send with it?? or is just being transphobic lmao. yea. yes to ur whole paragraph basically

law’s “i dont like bread” is iconic ksdnkdc. also ur description of “all he has to do is make a shocked face every time he ends up going along with the straw hats antics” just makes me imagine law pogging all the time. i think that alone just made me like his character more than before KSADNC

I LOOKED UP THE ONEPIECE PART PANEL. “PENIS DEATH” DFKN DF CHOPPA !?!?

if u make a tierlist i will make one…i might have made one b4 actually…i will look. 

HELL YEAA i recently made a bingo for my fav characters across fandoms. u should tell me if u share any . and i think i have it turned on so people can send media in asks?? if not, my submissions are also open

and yes. keep drawing. always and forever as long as its fun!! dont be scared. ur supposd to enjoy it!

yea robin’s eyes are brown in the manga but blue in the anime! i think it was either an error or oda was like “yea whatever thats fine” lmao

luffy’s…”i have reasons for this but i cant tell u yet.” HELLO?? IM SCARED. personally i feel like he has dark brown!!

omg..i like nami’s canon brown eyes but orange or green would be cute!

i 1000% want grey eyes for zoro. i know whenever they stylize the irises in the anime they just color them grey for sanji and zoro but like. for zoro they actually really Work…though i think when u CAN see his irises in colored manga art they’re usually brown? the other most popular option i see people give him in fanart is gold/yellow tho!

VERY INTERESTING USOPP CHOICE?? I WAS GONNA SAY BROWN LIKE NAMI’S BUT MAYBE A BIT DARKER (lighter than luffy’s tho)

ive gotten so used to blue eye sanji bc thats how EVERYONE draws him but in the most recent colorspread…bro. tell me those arent brown. and i recently found other examples with oda colorign his eyes brown, so i think he has a situation similar to robin’s. i prefer brown eyes and brown eyed sanji is so hansome but like. i saw his blues so much that now im torn

i think i actually agree w you about robin for the exact same reason! and bc so many of his characters seem to have brown in “canon”

omg. i havent thought abt franky a lot but hear me out…pink?? i just think it would look good with his hair,

also i consulted this post for what i think their “canon” colors are (in manga)!

RAINBOW EYES FOR BROOK…GAY ASS OLD MAN…light purple would actually look good behind his glasses in his human form!

i might not be able to reply in the next couple days bc i always write so much in these that i sit down to do it at my laptop but i'll keep an eye out and get back to u when i can 🥸

ps...what are ur favorite arcs...

[stitchwraith-stingers]

i got u

first off heres my family tree 4 them... its apart of a worldbuilding au i have so it would probably be different from canon but most of it still stands

i have aton of lore for angela bcuz im #crazy sorry if u wanted antony content, she had a fairy godparent when she was 10 (more on this here plus her fae sorry he looks ugly i cant draw old men i love u cirrus) and she was suicidal!! (like me, dw about it) her family was fine she just didnt like sharing her problems and used him as an anchor which prooooobably made her spiral out of control once she accidently lost him, she was semi-verbal during this time, shes also asexual but she has a job so she doesnt care abt that rn, probably shares hazel her old bug books she had where she collected dead ones and looks back on it and goes yeah i mightve been a little bit fucked up..... i dont remember though lol, also the inatentive adhderrrrrrrr

marcus had an alright time, he mostly complained about a ghost haunting the school gym but no one believed him, likes creativity but is bad at it (the fact that hes happy is what matters) he 100% used the fact that angelas family has this 'french middle name' thing going on to his advantage, angela is like were not naming our son james and he goes ok but what about jules as the middle name and she sighs and goes sure 😭😭

i like to imagine antony wasnt happy about gaining a younger sibling, he was like salty about it, but would sneak into hazels baby room and would stare and play w her whenever he got caught he went nooo im just pretending to be nice >:T he would not want to admit it for the first year, like a dad persisting he doesnt want a cat, i like to believe he had a pet iguana and probably snuck it in his dorm room before getting caught, the adhd and ocderrrrrr

i wont talk abt hazel in this i hazelpost enough on my acc take my offerings

If they want to, can someone please share with me their Antony Wells, Hazel Wells, each member of the Wells Family, or just head canons about them all together in either the reblogs or replies ? I want to know more about this silly family, doesn’t matter if it’s headcanons I just wanna know MORE 😭😭 they’re so underrated, especially Antony because I see like no content of him and he’s such a great and silly brother and character 💔💔 he’s one of my favorites. like his crush with Dejah is so cute I’m gonna SOB. You should all give your silly headcanons about this family/j

You should all share art of them as well !! (Only if you feel comfortable to ofc :3)

[imaginebabygurl]

hi how are you? <3 could you write a one shot where billy sleeps with inexperienced fem reader and then tells her that he did it just because he thought she was easy. but then he’s desperate to make things right with her and does everything to gain her forgiveness? sorry if this is to specific. have a great day!!

COMPLICATED

Billy x reader

A/n hey babies so here's another one for you I still have more to complete but they're on the way. Not the best at smut but i still hope you enjoy also I'm good and thank you love

WARNING: SUMT 18+ with fluff at the end

Read to find out love

Billy hargrove how exactly did we get here? You though to yourself, I was the supposed to be the good girl,the one that got good greads and the one everyone adored.

The older women in Hawkins though I would be a respectable house wife, with a bubbly and out going personality. The kind of house wife a father would be proud of their son to take home such a gal.

But that's everything I absolutely hate, being "good" and "innocent" no one every really cared about what I wanted or how I felt. In all honesty I liked being bad, what started out as Billy hargrove wanting to help me break out of my shell for some reason, took a turn of us meaning of in the back of his camaro as he proceeded to fuck the absolute shit out of me, and he'd do it everyday if he had his way.

One day in particular Billy came over and I hugged and kissed him getting ready to listen to music or watch a movie my parents were out of town, So he would sneak over to my house in the middle of the night.

Sometime when it's gonna be a heavy session Billy would bring clothes stay over at my house and we'd drive to school together if he knew I wouldn't be able to walk right. Then Billy said something and made my heart drop to the pitbof my stomach "Y/n...I think we should stop." My heart breaking into pieces, "what why?" My eyes filling with tears.

"What don't you get babe, your easy, dumb and naive, correction innocent that's it!, ding! ding! ding! ." I stooped him in his tracks with a slapped to his face and he was enraged.

"Billy don't you fuckin dare, if you think I'm so easy. You won you should be proud of yourself BILLY FUCKIN HARGROVE KING OF HAWKINS HIGH IS A BIG FUCKIN PHONY AND A LIAR AND A CHEAT!" Tear were pouring down my face filled with hurt anger and rage...

" you know what Billy get the fuck out of my house and when you see me in school just pretend like you don't even know me." With that I pushed him out my window realizing he made a mistake, he wanted to make it right but it was too late.

Days turn into weeks and weeks turn into month's. It was the end of the school year and one week till the final game for the basketball team. I was practicing with the girls from the team on a Saturday evening, until Billy came in and proceeded to pull me out of my cheerleading practice. "Billy let go, Billy stopped."

I tried to get my hand out of his grip because the way he acting was ridiculous, he stopped and looked at me with with hurt fury and something else and yet he still managed to pull me in a trans.

"Y/n stop do you understand me." All I could do was nod, and the fact rhat everyone stopped what they were doing to look at us that mean Billy was serious.

"Hey Hargrove let her go! Y/n doesnt desever to be with a scumbag like you." Almost everyone in the snicker but but Billy didnt flinch not one bit.

Billy turn to face Jason the leader of the basketball team and his perfect little cult followers, I seriously dont know why Lucas joined the team.

I looked to see Lucas' face had an expression of worry but I reassured him I was fine. The next things Billy spoke was a shock. "Well Jason you can keep wanking off to my girl in the fuckin locker room, while I'm getting the real fucking thing!"

The gym erupted in ooohhhs, some people were shocked and others laughed. Billy laughed flash a delivish smile and slapped my ass. "Billy!!!" "WOO That's right baby your gonna be screaming my name!!."

With that he turn to drag me to his car but not before Lucas yealled, " I'm telling Max!!!" " Go ahead what do I care." Billy just kept moving he was a man on a mission.

I reluctantly got in the car, the evening ride turned into a late night drive into the night in his camaro and taking me to a open field filled with flowers and fireflies and it was beautiful. I thought it was something out of a fairytale a place I wouldn't think Billy belonged but it was Okay because if only he knew that I still yearned for him, he was my first and I wanted him to be my last.

" Billy its late what so you want, I have church in the morning." "Y/n...please I've missed you." "Yeah sure you do".

At this point we were in the field leaning on the hood of his car, with his arms wrapped around my waist and me in-between his leg. "Y/n, I'm a dam fool, I shouldn't have said any of that, I'm an asshole that should have realized what... what I lost but because of my pride... it got the better of me. I thought for a moment on to make him wait in anticipation and also he did look sincere. "So." "So."" Come on y/n your killing me here."

"Fine Biiilllllyy, but I'm gonna tell you this right now you have a lot of making up to do, especially with that ego of yours." "I know and I will with, do I have permission to kiss you."

He gave me an all to knowing smirk that I knew exactly what it meant and I've carved to see it so much." "Well dummy are you gonna kiss me!?." With that Billy picked me up and slid back of the hood of his car and slowly kissed me.

Slow and sweet billy pepperd my body with kisses as I was on top of him srattling his legs and through the thin fabric of my pantiess and uniform rub my clit agianst his boner and he proceeded to grab my wasit to push down harder on my clit and grinded our hips togther making are breathes quicken in pace all the while deepening our kiss and desire for each other.

He held me and climb off the hoof of his car and undressed me from cheerleader uniform, that was the first time I was touched by anybody. He laid me flat on the hood of his car as he hovered over me, kissing the nape of my neck trailing down all the way to my cunt at this point my body was bare, billy look up from between my thighs giving me a delivish grin. Then his next actions sent bliss all over my body "Billy" , "BILLY" I said a little louder "BiLly sTop Please I can't taake this it's too much", my face flush and warmed from the heat I felt running through my body.

I whimpered and moaned his name. I was almost at my climax screaming his name and then stopped. "Billy why'd you stop, Please keep going daddy."

Billy stop and hovered over me "Daddy, you like that, dollface."

I nod my head in anticipation and pulled him by the neck giving him giving him kiss all over his neck sure to leave some hockey's behind in the process, I hear billy moaning in my ear his eyes roll back I'm pleasure. "Shit y/n." He said in a low deep voice, "I can't take this any more, I'm gonna fuck you on the hood of my car and your gonna take like a good princess you are or are you gonna miss behave."

In my mind either way Billy would absolutely ravage me but I wanted the the whole experience so I missed behaved." And what I said no." " wrong answer sweetheart." Before I knew it Billy gragged me to my feet opened the car door proceeded to take a seat he finally took off his jeans which excited my body even more, his cocktail was dripping with pre-cum, he wasn't gonna be easy going on for the first.

" now princess look at this mess you caused, my cock is dripping be a doll and clean it up for me." I sat their on my need taking his cocktail all in but Billy was impatient and grabbed a fist full of hair, push my head towards his cocktail as much as I could take.

"Doll move your head back and forth, also don't use your theeth""Billy I know,its not my first time anymore." Still he guided my head as I sucked on his cock, I wanted to take in all of him so I pushed his hand away my hair and held his hands down. Every moan he'd make and cursed out loud " Fuck! baby you sure you haven't doing this before."

Mhm was all I could say I was too busy wanting to earn more moans from Billy, but he bent over causing me to take in more of his cock to slap my ass. I whimpered in pleasure and then he stopped my head to pull out I wined.

" Billy please I want your cock inside me" He smirked, " of course princess you deserve this cock." Billy told me to stay on my knees at the point you could tell it was gonna be sunrise soon from the way the night sky was changing colour.

He brought out a blanket for me to lay on pointed me towards the blanket of the soft bed of grass, billy turn his car on to play some music in t he background which I thought was romantic.

He came back with a condom but I told him, he wouldn't need it since I was on birth control. " you ready y/n." "Yes, Billy please." Billy slipped his cock inside of me, it was slightly painful but he waited a bit for me to be comfortable and then he slowly started to thrust in and out of me and waves of pleasure and ecstasy hit him.

Billy went faster over time and it was the Crack of dawn. I couldn't take it anymore I wrapped my arms and legs around his body making his go faster. Billy,Billy,Billy, please fuck me, cum inside me daddy take this pussy. "Yeah, y/n you want daddy to cum inside you are you my flighty little whore of a princess" He said while grunting.

He went faster and the pit in my stomach was gonna explode" Billy, Daddy please fuck, I'm Cumming!!!" " yeah then come for Billy, cum for you fucking daddy" I closed my eyes shut but he gave me hard and deep thrust. " y/n open your fuckin eyes and look at me while I fuck you."

I did what he told me to. " I'm the only one that gets to be cum inside this pussy do you understand, only me and I don't want you to fuckin make eyes at anyone else but fuckin me."

At this point I already came and tears were streaming down my face as I whimpered Billy's name to stop because the pleasure was too much. All the anger I have for him went away and my eyes rolled back. He was getting ready to come and I was hitting another climax.

" Fuck!Fuck!Fuck! I'm gonna fuckin come y/n ahhh fuck tell ne me I can fuckin breed you baby." Yes, Billy please cum for me." FUCK Y/N. "BILLY" we both screamed in pleasure Billy pushing himself deep inside me realsing his load shaking but continously pumping inside me.

Both our bodies laid down on the sheet our bodies a sweaty tangled mess, billy pulled me close to him at this point it was day break and the sunrise was beautiful, in that moment Billy was beautiful his curly hair now laid a tangle mess and his beautiful ocean eyes staring back at mine.

He pulled me close and peppered me with kiss all over my temple, Billy got up and and grabbed a spare blanket to cover us up along with a pack of particular cigarettes he liked to smoke.

I always told him that smoking was bad for his health but usually he grumbled and put it away as I'd always put it out or not let him kiss me because I didn't like the taste. "Y/n you still with me? He smiled and I smiled back. " Yeah I'm still here, what's up?" " Baby... no Y/n I'm sorry, for the things I said, your not easy, nor are you in anyway easy to manipulate.

That was an asshole move of me and I shouldn't have said what I said, just because I didn't want you getting to close to me. But before my ass rambles on and gets all sappy and shit." Billy lifted up my chin to makes sure I made eye contact with him, "BE my girlfriend, and be my one and only, and we can take it easy. I'm being serious and I'll make it up to you and I know I'm not perfect but-".

"Billy it's okay People say things they'll regret, yes I'll be your and yes we'll take it slow or as fast as you want, I know this isn't really your thing. But I'll make you learn to love one step at a time I'll be there." "Promise" "I promise Billy."

With that said I took out a cigarette and passed it to him and lid it, while he smoked he held me and we just listened to the tunes from his car, for the rest of that Sunday morning.

AND AYATO SIMPS ARE FUNNY BECAUSE CANONICALLY, HE DOESNT HAVE A FACE OR PHYSICAL PRESENCE- anyway, im hilarious because im totally in love with the version of him in my head 🥰🤡

↠ Rules for Requesting | Masterlist

• diluc teaching you how to play the card games he learned from his father and the older knights when he still was a member of the knights of favonius one stormy night under candlelight to ease yours and his boredom while the rain beat on the windows of the dawn winery.

seeing a familiar and almost forgotten gleam of excitement and amusement in your eyes - the same one his elders used to tease him about - the more you play and the more you win, his heart tells him that playing with the intricately designed cards with slightly worn out edges doesn't need to be a bittersweet memory anymore.

• tohma with a habit of kissing every part of your face except your lips. your eyelids, your cheeks, your nose, the side of your lips, your forehead, but not your lips. or at least, he tends to save your lips for last.

secondly, he loves penguin kisses. tohma's nose rubs against yours affectionately, his lips just barely hovering above yours nothing but a breath away and they form a smirk when you frown and swat at his chest. he takes his time to shower you in love and adoration, and to him, the kiss on the lips are the final seal before he sends you on your way packed with the fluttering sensation of affection on your skin.

• ayato doesn't even try to maintain his composure or act like the proper gentleman he was during the meeting he just had 5 minutes ago. he relaxes, he eases up, whatever front he puts up falls apart because with you, there's no need for it.

during dinner, he pretends to wipe away the bit of sauce that smeared on your cheek, only to sneakily smear even more and laugh at the scandalized look on your face. ayato pretends to loudly snore when you're barely on the brink of falling asleep and narrowly dodges your drowsy attempts to clamp your hand over his mouth and goes to sleep with a smile on his face and his hand slowly dragging up and down your back.

• xiao and the process of getting comfortable with you. he slowly has to ease into it of course, scared of rubbing off his karma and bad luck onto you.

but when he does, you wake up in the middle of the night to feel his nimble fingers slipping under your shirt to gently rub his thumb over the swell of your hips. he kisses your palm while he traces patterns on and reads your fortune from it, xiao would abruptly kiss the back when he had it intertwined with his. verbal affection through metaphors and other figures of speech, all translating to forms of i love you, i care for you, i adore you and all other terms of endearment, sometimes in a language unfamiliar to you, leave his lips.

mischa sends noel song clips to review and noel sends him poetry snippets

constance and penny spend evenings at the cafe together, they do their homework there and they talk for hours once shes finished

penny and ocean are actually pretty close, those two and constance sit together in most lessons and convince the teacher to put them in a three for pair activities.

noel knows talia is real and they're actually friends. mischa is glad they get along and someone else believes shes real.

this led noel to learning some ukranian and talia learning some english to avoid the hells of google translate

constance really likes the count of monte cristo

ocean cannot handle spice at all. she can barely hold her own against the lowest spice rating on a nandos menue

ricky talks to noel about zolar and all xeir ideas for it. noel is fascinated by just how detailed and extravagent it all it, so he ignores the sexy cat people

ricky convinced the rest of the choir to watch cats. there is now a mandatory background check before each movie on movie nights

ocean wears a lot of yellow and blue

because of oceans oarents, she has very limited internet access, so she normally uses a laptop her parents dont know about, courtesy of constance, at the cafe

the gang finding out about papercut hcs? like the after affect of them finding out maybe

okok i actually think doing hcs of them AFTER they found out is super interesting

•when pony says hes “gonna go out” without fail either darry or sodas gonna say “with who”, and they would say it SOMETIMES, but now they say it more frequently in a bit of a suspecting tone

•steve sweaarrssss pony became more if a smartass when they found out he was dating curly and hes not 100% wrong

•when it comes to johnny, i imagine that he WANTS to know how the fuck they even got together, but more than anything he just wants to make sure ponys safe, so hes a bit apprehensive and protective of pony while curlys around, its not obvious, but thats bc johnnys more so an observer, he watches how curly acts w pony and only reports something if pony aint feelin so good

•just to get it out the way, before soda just didnt like it, the first question he asked himself was how didnt he notice and now considering hes w curly, he takes a lot longer while looking at pony, and questions him a little more when theyre in bed

•the notice that pony rlly doesnt smoke AS much, and theyre surprised to see that cause out if the gang hes like ine of the biggest smokers, and hes holding that back????bc of CURLY????? whats going on between em

•part of the reason y they were so hesitant w them together id bc of who curly was yes, but also they just,,,dont know how curly is in a relationship, so they dont know how to go, they know curlys an aggressive guy n can get into some bad situations so theyre just scared for pony

•pony HATES that the gang found out, for obvious reasons, but also bc he hates being babied and watched over, and he hates it EVEN MORE when the gang pretends like they arent doing it, and thats exactly what they do, its like everything has to b perfect to them in their eyes and he despises it

•yknow i think it would b funny if even sylvia knew about it bc 1) word gets around and 2) dally, and she just slithers up to pony like “so u and the middle shepard, huh??” and ponys shitting bricks, mostly bc he has no clue how to talk to her, in the end dally shoo’d her away from em

•if we wanna go down the “they all found them out at different times” ik they all had that ‘i suspected them that one time where they” convo over a card game, shit went on for like 2 hours

•pony tries not being the last person to get home or else he’s LITERALLY going to get interrogated by everyone, like darry will question him and when pony answers someone else would just butt in and add their own evidence to try and get pony to tell the truth

She wasn’t exactly sure when everything fell apart.

It was like everything was normal, until— until it just wasn’t. Not very eloquent, but… it was the truth.

And before it all went wrong, she was fighting a losing battle against her lovestruck heart.

Y/N couldn’t pinpoint the moment she began to notice the cute server boy that worked at the tea shop. Maybe it was the first time she stepped into the shop with her friends, who would whisper about him the whole time, stealing glances at him whenever they could. She remembered scolding them, insisting that they leave the ‘poor tea boy alone and let him do his job’.

She was sure that he had overheard her, and she couldn’t make eye contact with the boy for the entire rest of the visit.

(He had. It was the first genuine smile that had graced his features in weeks.)

Or maybe it was the first time she went there alone — Y/N wasn’t particularly a fan of tea, but something had drawn her back through the entrance of the Jasmine Dragon.

It certainly wasn’t convenience. Y/N lived in the Lower Ring, only able to travel through to the other levels through her work passport — if she ever fancied anything other than delivering silks and marking down orders, she was forced to rely on pure luck or old fashioned City Block trickery. It was a miracle she had avoided capture by the Dai Li for so long. Every time she stepped foot into the tea shop was testing fate as it was in the Upper Ring, but she couldn’t help herself.

It wasn’t for the company. Y/N had made quite a few friends outside of her social standing simply because of her work — girls from the Middle Ring still required jobs, and making and delivering fabrics was far from the worst. During long nights spent sewing and stitching and early mornings delivering, she had managed to forge friendships with a couple of the more tolerant girls, and that was how she ended up at the Jasmine Dragon that day — but every other time she entered the shop she went alone. She sometimes saw customers that likely forgot her face the second she left their doorstep, but other than that she knew no one there.

No, as much as she tried to deny it, the scarred teenager who worked in the tea shop had caught her interest, as well as her affections.

She figured he was a refugee like herself because of his scar, though it seemed he fared far better than her in every other aspect — steady job at the best tea shop in the city, clothes that weren’t threadbare, and an Upper Ring apartment. Truly, she had no idea how he had done it.

One day, while she sat at her usual table in the corner merely pretending to read through the menu, the boy began to approach her little corner of solace. She immediately averted her eyes, already able to feel her cheeks heating up — spirits above, she was in far too deep — when he did the last thing she expected.

He sat down in the chair across from her along with the tray he had been holding, containing two cups and a teapot, and offered her a small, though slightly strained, smile.

“Hi,” he began. I’m uh, Lee. I work here.” His eyes wandered around as if looking for an escape, and he suddenly thrust the ceramic cup towards her. “Tea?”

Y/N set down the menu and nodded as she took it, her blatant surprise shown in her wide eyes. She was afraid of completely embarrassing herself if she opened her mouth, so she chose not to.

He scratched the side of his head uncomfortably and continued to glance around — she noticed his leg bouncing as he tapped his foot against the floor; it seemed he couldn’t keep still — until he finally spoke up again. “Do you come here often?”

“Yeah!” Calm down, you are coming off way too eager. “I mean, yeah.. sometimes. I don’t actually like tea that much.”

His brows knit in confusion. “I see you here every day. Why would you be here all the time if you don’t like tea?”

Because I’m hopelessly attracted to you. “Well.. why’d you ask if I come here often when you already know I do?”

His cheeks burned bright red and he averted eye contact once more. “I’m, uh— not that good at conversations.”

She covered up her smile with a sip of tea, tickled pink to know the object of her affections was nowhere as suave as she had imagined him to be. It made talking to him much easier. “I don’t mind. I’m not the best either.”

“My Uncle told me that I had to say something to you instead of just staring at you all the time,” he muttered. Y/N nearly choked on her tea but managed to cover it up with a well-placed cough.

“You stare at me all the time?” she asked innocently.

If it was possible, Lee turned an even brighter shade of red as he attempted to sputter out an excuse. “No! I mean— I— sometimes, but— I promise, it’s just—”

Y/N laughed, the tension in their interaction steadily melting away. “It’s alright. I come here to stare at you all the time, so I’d say we’re even.”

The conversation only flowed from there, coming to a reluctant end when Y/N admitted she had to get back to work. Zuko had to as well, but he was sure that his uncle would’ve let him talk the night away without doing a smidge of work if it meant spending time with the girl he had been crushing on since the moment she walked in.

Y/N returned the next day, and the next, and the next after that. She showed up to the tea shop every day for two weeks straight, each time during her shift — and even though she was berated endlessly by her superior, it was worth it for Lee — and each time they talked for at least an hour.

The boy seemed to come out of his shell more and more each day and it pleased Y/N to no end that she had been able to help him. They talked about everything from work to life in Ba Sing Se (he was very impressed at the lengths she put into traveling through all the rings without getting caught) to types of tea; truly everything and anything at all — they never got too personal though. Y/N had her secrets, Lee had his, and they respected each other’s privacy.

At the end of one day, after having talked away Lee’s whole shift, he popped the question that had been nagging him since their first conversation:

“Will you go out with me?”

Y/N gave the most enthusiastic yes, and after a few minutes of planning, they parted ways once again — though not without a kiss on the cheek from Y/N.

(Zuko’s face was red for twenty minutes after, and he was so dazed that he nearly dropped every order he carried during that time.)

As for Y/N, she bounded home with a little skip in her step, and for the first time in a long, long while, she was looking forward to the future.

-

It was mid-day when the message came in, marking around six hours until the anticipated date. Zuko couldn’t manage to keep himself still due to a healthy mix of nerves and excitement, which led him to taking a broom to every corner of the tea shop for the hundredth time. When it was revealed that they had been invited to serve tea to the Earth King, his uncle couldn't have been more ecstatic, insisting they leave then and there.

“Wait!” Zuko took a piece of paper from the counter and tore off a smaller piece, then scrawled out a message.

“Y/N,

We were called to the palace to serve tea to the Earth King. If you come by while we’re gone, don’t worry. I can’t wait to see you tonight and tell you all about it.”

-Lee”

“In case she comes by while we’re gone,” he explained, much to his uncle’s pleasure. Iroh grinned, a hint of admiration laced in.

“You really do have feelings for her, don’t you?”

“I do,” he admitted with a soft smile.

Iroh gave him a firm pat on the shoulder. “Then I suppose we should serve some tea worthy of her affections.”

“Not even you can ruin this, Uncle,” he joked as he pinned the letter to the outside of the door. Zuko then lifted the tea tray and the pair began to make their way to the palace.

Zuko heard a noise behind him and instinctively turned, eyes darting around searching for the source, but ultimately passed it off as paranoia as he takes a few quick steps to catch up with his uncle. After all, one doesn’t spend months on the run without developing some.

If he had been looking more carefully though, he would’ve seen his note missing from the door of the tea shop along with flashes of green darting away from the scene.

Y/N had managed to scrounge up a few extra silver pieces — quite literally, as she ended up digging through her cushions — and rewarded herself with a dress to call her own. It was nowhere near as fine as the outfits of the women she saw every day in the Upper Ring, but it was far better than the threadbare tunics and work uniform she usually sported.

In the scheme of things, it was a stupid, stupid purchase, but she felt like she deserved something special after months of thankless work. She was a teenage girl, and she deserved to act like one for just a night.

They had agreed to meet around the front of the Jasmine Dragon, which meant even more careful maneuvering to get through all the measures taken to keep the rings separated. Y/N hated her job, but she couldn’t deny the usefulness of the work passport — she simply had to look like she was working to fool the guards at the wall. She didn’t necessarily want to bring a basket of silks to a first date, but she was sure he would understand.

Y/N found herself in the Upper Ring before she knew it and took her time on the way to the Jasmine Dragon. The soft night breeze was cool on her skin, a welcome change from the usual humidity of the day. The tea shop was closed by this time so she knew there would be a wait — after all, he had told her to look her best, so she expected the same from Lee.

Only the wait turned out to be much longer than she had thought. It had been thirty minutes, and there was still no sign of the boy with the scar. Y/N decided to give him the benefit of the doubt — they were busy people, maybe something came up that they had to take care of immediately. He wouldn’t stand her up — Lee wasn’t that kind of person, and she was certain his uncle wouldn’t let him stand a girl up.

Forty five minutes.

An hour.

An hour and a half.

Nothing.

Y/N felt like an idiot. She had let herself get excited — the thought of this date was the only thing that got her through the workday. She had gone against her better judgement and splurged on a dress, a thought that only embarrassed her now, just to get stood up by the first boy she had opened herself up to in years.

As she wandered home, she was reminded that there was a reason she never got her hopes up.

-

After the night she had, Y/N had no desire to go back to work, but there were a plethora of other girls that would gladly take her job if she quit. So she hauled herself out of the slab of wood she called a bed, fixed a bland breakfast, dressed in her usual uniform (first thing tomorrow, she was returning that damned dress), and set off for another glorious day.

The streets of the Lower Ring were never less than completely crowded, but when Y/N stepped out of her apartment she was met by a peculiar sight — the middle of the street was completely empty whereas the sides were filled with bunches of anxious, whispering citizens.

She had seen stranger things in her time in the city, so she brushed it off as mass hysteria and continued on her way — that is, until she felt a sudden hand encircle her wrist and pull her towards the side.

A yelp escaped her and she initially tried to free herself when she caught sight of the perpetrator. She recognized him, and though she couldn’t place his name, she figured she was safe.

“What are you doing?” she hissed.

“Saving you from that,” he shot back, pointing a finger down the street. She turned to see what that was, only to see her worst fear marching down the street. The Fire Nation had invaded.

Y/N gasped, the sharp intake of breath like a dagger through her heart. The army of komodo rhinos seemed never-ending, and images of the invasion of her home years ago flashed before her eyes.

“The Dai Li took down the walls,” he murmured. “Let the Fire Nation right in. They’ve been marching through all morning, marking their territory.” The man’s face screwed up in disgust and he shook his head. “I’ll tell ya what they are— damn traitors, that’s what!”

But Y/N wasn’t paying attention to his tirade. She was dimly aware of the crowd on either side of her, the same fear struck into their hearts by the brigade, and she began to back away.

“I— I have to go,” she said suddenly, eyes shooting around wildly once again to find the best path while remaining undercover. Once she had a solid plan, Y/N darted into the shadows and began to run.

The Dai Li had taken down the outer wall, but they hadn’t bothered with the one separating the Lower Ring from the rest of the city — figures. Luckily, she had the element of surprise on her side from the invasion and was able to make her way to the Upper Ring with some careful maneuvering and a little bit of luck.

She skidded to a stop in front of the Jasmine Dragon and felt her heart sink at the sight of closed doors. She peered through the window and was met with nothing but a dark, empty room. Y/N whirled around and flagged down a nearby shopkeep, but he reported that it had been dark all day, no one coming in or out.

Y/N thanked him for his information and began her cautious trek home, only dimly aware of her surroundings, the newfound knowledge weighing heavy on her mind.

-

The Jasmine Dragon reopened the next day. Though there were questions about the sudden disappearance of the best tea maker in the city and his nephew, they quickly faded into the background. Though the tea declines in quality, it isn’t noticeable enough for anyone to care — they have bigger issues to worry about these days.

Sometimes it feels like Y/N is the only one who remembers Lee and Mushi, the timid, scarred boy with a hidden heart of gold and his amiable uncle who somehow knew more about yourself than you did. She looks back on her memories with the boy fondly, continuing to hold onto the mundane hope that he’s alright and will, one day, come back for her. After all, he still owes her a date.

But she isn’t aware of his true identity as Zuko, Prince of the Fire Nation. She isn’t aware of the role he played in the fall of Ba Sing Se.

Most of all, she remains unaware of the Dai Li agents tracking her every movement. Her name had been found on the note outside of the tea shop, and it didn't take long for them to track her down. Whoever she was, she had some kind of connection to the prince, and by order of Princess Azula they were to look into anything of the sort.

Yangchen protect her lest she make a wrong move.
