#so this may be warm up for the idea 🤔

What can indicate intense eye contact with some one? Is that something astrology can tell? 🤔

Intense Eye Contact

—Sag sun are masters of strong eye contact. They have that wise beyond their years look. Like they’ve been alive for centuries and this is another re-run of their last shitty trial.

—Scorpio degrees/big 6 placements have strong eye contact. And some may avoid it actually because it feels too intimate. Everytime they look at someone its as if they’re skinning them to see their soul.

—Virgo 8h is another one. Always staring at you to figure out who you are behind what you say. Studies your body language to a T. They don’t take anything at face value. Bonus points if mercury sits in the 8h.

—Aquarius placements/stellium their stares penetrate through flesh and bone. They have this manic pixie look at first and it drives you in real deep, you have no idea what you’re signing up for.

—Mars 1h undressing you with their eyes, both in the spiritual sense and physical :) id say this is more so spiritual if they have strong neptune asp to personal planets, neptune conj mars, pisces/cancer placements. They just want to read your soul, but often comes across like they’re trying to figure out what color your underwear is. (Love ya mars 1h)

—Taurus placements have so much soul and rhythm behind their eyes. Serenade me. Hold me. Beautiful gazes, like gazelle. Reminds me of 90s rhythm and blues.

—Cap Venus has that look, similar to a thousand mile yard stare but more solemn. Tranquil. Somber. Always aching for more and wishing for what could’ve been. It moves you.

—Saturn dom has a resting bitch face, it’s iconic. Always looks annoyed or slightly disgusted at something they saw. Rarely stays for long so you can really see the depth in their eyes. Quick glances, or long drawn out eye contact so you know your place, especially if you messed with them.

—Gemini moon can also have intense eye contact. They’re always analyzing the moment and studying in their head, so it looks as if they’re focused innately on you. Paired with Leo gives them a languid, sultry stare. Feline like and does not approach first, no, they invite you with their eyes.

—Pluto-venus asp is another one entirely. Crash and burn with me gaze. Catch me if you can. Play games with me and chase after me. Never gives away their real intentions, always hidden with that same smirk and their flaunting eyes.

—Cancer moon looks absolutely whimsical, embodying the stars. Droopy, bedroom eyes. Can have a delicate tilt to their head when they listen to you. God, it really draws you in. Like two pools of honey, warming you.

—Neptune asp personal planets. A stare you can’t explain. Dreamy, hazy, personal yet you’re placed on the outside. Feels like a sacred reunion when they look at you, adorning you. Strange familiarity like they’ve always known you.

You brought up this AU idea from way back where Jon and Rhaegar were born earlier as Aemon and Jocelyn's sons, and thus Rhaenys' little brothers. How old would that put them compared to Daemon? Would he like having more cousins? For that matter, would Rhaenys like having little brothers? Would Aemon live in this AU, or would we get child!King Jon? (The sheer panic, lmao.) If so, would Viserys become his regent? I was just wondering about it and could not resist the curiosity. How do you think things would have changed in this sort of verse? 🤔

I sort of like the idea of them being right around Daemon's age, plus or minus a few years. I'm sure he would be thrilled about having cousins his age, too. Rhaenys is cool, but she's a girl and older. The age gap between her and Daemon is pretty significant in terms of being peers. Rhaenys meanwhile may find it a little disappointing at first. I expect she had dreams of her own that she might be queen someday after her father, long before she got her cold shot of reality at the Great Council. Twin brothers pushes her back behind both of them in the succession.

But Rhaenys is also a seven or eight-year-old, so it's not like politics and the succession are the primary things on her mind when the twins are born. Twins are fun, and the boys are cute/sweet, so I'm sure she warms up to them quickly and bossily assumes control over their education even though she's pretty much a child herself (Jocelyn, amused, lets her). She probably wishes at least one of them had been a girl, especially when she has to deal with the brat pack that is Viserys, Daemon, and the twins running around like hooligans at Dragonstone or the Giant's Toe.

If Aemon dies at his usual canon time and the twins are roughly Daemon's age, then Jon would be thirteenish, which isn't TERRIBLE. (The other alternative is the twins being born much later, aka when Rhaenys is married. Jocelyn gets pregnant, Aemon dies shortly after their birth, and chaos ensues. They'd be contemporaries of Rhaenyra in this case, and I expect Jaehaerys betroths Rhaenyra to Jon and plans for Baelon, and later Viserys, to be Jon's regent.)

Or my soft heart wins out and Aemon gets to live, who can say! That could be an interesting inversion--where Baelon dies, and it's Aemon who has to live on, only unlike Baelon, he has no enemy to strike down in vengeance, since it was sickness that took him. Viserys and Daemon both leaning on him in their grief, Daemon claiming Vhagar(???) instead.

It's hard to say what changes, exactly, without settling on some details! Is this a setting with or without warlocks (aka with or without messy Essos politics)? Does Aemon live or die? Are the twins contemporaries of Daemon or Rhaenyra?

I do think that Jaehaerys is faced with an interesting, difficult choice in the case of Aemon dies + the twins are babies. Because he has a grown son as a very valid alternative, even if standard male-preference primogeniture dictates that Jon and Rhaegar should be above Baelon in the succession. Then again, he did not immediately declare Viserys his next heir after Baelon's death, which shows he was open to Aemon's line stepping back into the position, even if the rest of the realm wasn't.

Things are much more stable if Aemon doesn't die (obviously) or if the twins are born earlier and Jon becomes a thirteen-year-old heir to the Iron Throne. Jaehaerys would have had enough time to get a sense of Jon's capability and know that he's an excellent option.

Otto's not sitting nearly as pretty as in canon (the daughter of a second son is no worthwhile match for the king's heir or his spare), so he may be driven to more desperate measures in his grasping for power.

(I'll bet the twins are Corlys's #1 fans. It is likely joked that no one was more excited when he wed Rhaenys, not even Rhaenys herself.)

Hello! I know you're not taking requests right now, but I still want to share with you a somewhat strange idea❤️

What if the reader was Tommy's wife in an arranged marriage? She loved him, he might have had warm feelings, but still cheated. And what if the reader accepted his child after the infidelity? She had just given birth to Tommy's baby herself, literally two weeks ago, when he brought home a newborn from another woman. And what if Tommy saw the reader breastfeeding his son from the infidelity in the middle of the night, tenderly caressing him as his own child.

I'm not very good at describing things and not strong in English at all. Thank you!

Hi there @alimosblog ! Thanks for stopping in and sharing this with me! 😊 you described this wonderfully…I was clearly able to picture it as I was reading through it!

This is such an interesting idea! — I just had to dive into it under the cut!

Bless that woman’s heart for sticking with him after he went and not only cheated with, but also had a baby with another woman whilst being married to her .. then she took that baby in (I wonder if the other woman then found out about him being married and dumped the baby on them in exchange for money or something? 🤔🤔 because I’m imagining this being later in the series, when he’s amassed some power) … and so she’s got these two children who are so close in age that it’s practically like she’s raising twins and she has to bring the baby in….it’s a baby, it can’t do anything for itself and she has a caring heart that goes out to it.

Now we need to dig into why she’s even decided to stay with Tommy after his unforgivably crass actions … So it’s later in the series, Tommy has wealth and power. I’m can’t seem to choose whether (Y/N)’s family is more powerful/wealthy than his, or if they somehow crossed the Shelbys in a way and this marriage was how things became neutralized again.

Either way, I think that she’s pressured to stay in this union because of external circumstances … I also think she’s lost love for Tommy because of his actions, so she decides to devote herself to the two children so that they have the best lives that can be given.

And so when Tommy sees her nurturing this baby that he had with his mistress it kind of breaks his brain — how can she love a child that was brought in under the worst circumstances? But he doesn’t know that she’s already made peace with it all (because she has to given her family and their wishes…she’s not getting out of this marriage) and has dedicated herself to these children.

She stays at Arrow House for the children and raises them up. I’d like to think that the child that isn’t hers doesn’t know that (while they’re young and growing at least) and for the most part they’re a cohesive family unit. She tries her best to make it seem like she and Tommy are happy in front of the children, but those actions don’t just erase themselves and so it’s never 100% not an act — it helps that Tommy’s off working for most of the time though.

I’d also imagine that those children are the apple of her eye and vice versa when they get older — there’s such a deep love there that it transcends everything else.

———

I hope you liked my little musings on this amazing idea! Thanks so much for sharing it with me and trusting me with it! 🥰 — I’m sorry that I didn’t write out a full request with it, but it was fun to dissect it and imagine it this way. Feel free to drop in anytime! I’m hoping that I’ll be able to open my requests soon so that you could share any other ideas you may have!

I know that Rhaenyra would be furious to know that her child was dating Alicent behind her back. But I couldn’t help but imagine: Rhaenyra has a serious talk with her child, and then she’s saying “That’s enough! We’re leaving tonight! And don’t you dare disobey me. I can’t believe it, that you my precious child would do that with Alicent.”

Reader: “But I don’t want to leave!” whispering “I love her”

Rhaenyra: What did you say?

Reader: I said I love her! I love Alicent and I love Aegon, Helaena, Aemond and Daeron! And I don’t want to leave.

And I know that won’t end well for Reader, but still imagine the reactions of the Greens, especially Alicent, since it warms her heart that Reader loves her

Rhaenyra: You will get away from Alicent and we will go to Dragonstone! 😡

Reader: No! I'm staying here with Alicent and my sibilings!! 😡 I love her! 😍

An Alicent passing by the discussion and listening to you say you love her: 🥰🥰😍😍😘😘

Alicent: I LOVE YOU TOO, Y/N!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Rhaenyra angry and screaming at her evil stepmother: IF YOU GET NEAR Y/N AGAIN I SWEAR I WILL KILL YOU, YOU FUCKING WHO- 🤬🤬🤬

You are interrupted by a confused Viserys shouting: ??? What is my beloved and loving family talking about?? 🤔😊

Alicent, Rhaenyra and Reader: 😄😇🤫🤭🤗

A pretty meaningless conversation but I felt like doing it lol 😉. Like, imagine back in the day when Viserys is still alive and Alicent and the Reader are having an affair behind his back? Rhaenyra will be irate. And we all know that an angry Targaryen does no good.

I like to imagine that Rhaenyra would be more comfortable with this relationship if it was just based on lust, that way she would have more against her stepmother but you wouldn't be in danger of leaving her for someone else. Don't get me wrong, she would still be absolutely mad with rage and jealousy when she found out about your involvement with the Queen but it will get even worse when she finds out that you are actually in love with Alicent.

Now she, in addition to being angry and jealous, will be worried if you are not being manipulated by Alicent. Rhaenyra can't help but worry that Alicent is trying to poison you against her. And she can't let that happen. You need to get away from her as soon as possible, and although it hurts, you may have to marry someone close to her. Perhaps Jacaerys or one of Daemon's daughters.

She doesn't want her beloved child to marry but she will if it means taking you away from Alicent. And she knows Viseyrs will agree even if the Queen tries to intercede.

The Greens would be happy for the Reader and Alicent, especially Helaena. She knows you and her mom really love each other and she wants nothing more than your happiness. Aegon and Aemond are still a little wary of all this, but once they know you really love their mother, they'll be more willing to be open about it. Criston doesn't have much to say other than that he's happy for you two, you're a good fit and he has no problem, even more so when he finds out that you really love each other.

Alicent would be completely happy and overjoyed to hear you say that you love her, because only The Sevens know how much she loves you, how much she longs and lust for you. And knowing that you feel the same way about her makes her so happy. Alicent would take you in her arms and kiss you right then and there no matter who is present and let you know that she feels the same or even more for you. Fuck, she loves you so much and you have no idea how full her mind is with just you present. It's you she thinks about when she wakes up and before she goes to sleep.

Rhaenyra angrily wanting to marry you off just to keep you away from Alicent so you can stay by your mother's side forever: 😡🤫😏😈😚

Meanwhile, Alicent and the Reader live out their passionate romance, completely unaware of Rhaenyra's plans: 😍🥰😘😍🥰😘

Hello! Congrats on the milestone!☺️

If I could, can I request a meet cute prompt at a cafe? I was thinking with either Bucky Barnes or Sirius Black🤔 I understand you may be busy and sometimes the idea just flows better for one character compared to the other so if it’s ok I’ll just leave you with this?😁 Congrats once again!

Honestly, I could go either way...

Thoughts are brewing - many thoughts - for this prompt being applied to Sirius, but I can see a very distinct scene for it with Bucky right now.

Characters/Pairings: post-TFATWS!Bucky Barnes x female!Reader Word Count:  1.1k Summary: As much as things have changed, they've also stayed the same, and Bucky's just living a normal life in Brooklyn on an ordinary day, starting with morning coffee.

Content/Warnings: a little meet-cute fluff, nothing but fluff

Additional Notes: This will be the FIRST SQUARE for my Bucky Barnes Bingo @buckybarnesbingo - B3 "Old Married Couple". Literally this is just another cute coffee shop meet cute but I picked this long-haired version of Bucky, but I liked spending time with this soft version of Bucky for a few minutes, so I hope you enjoy him, too.

The way time passes fascinates Bucky. How could it not when he was born in 1917 and sitting in a café in Brooklyn over a hundred years later still in the prime of his life – a Brooklyn that’s got pieces of old and new, and both are familiar to him now. It’s been almost a year since he was pardoned, and his hair has finally grown out again, but it grows fast, and he’s cut it a few times. He only started coming to this spot in his neighborhood a month ago, but now that it’s settled firmly in as a piece of his morning routine, it’s starting to feel like it’s always been the place to supply his morning coffee and pastry. His coffee order is always the same, but he does branch out on the baked goods. Bart and Tina – the brother and sister who own the place – never fail with what they decide to bake each day for their customers. Bucky recognizes quite a few of the faces himself now. He’s even talked to a few of them – but not many, because they are all New Yorkers after all, and so some don’t want to be bothered with more than a nod.

There’s an old married couple – George and Evelyn – who come in together on the weekdays. They both still teach at the university, not quite retired yet, but they’re younger than Bucky, born in the post-WWII boom. It’s strange to think if he’d lived a normal life, he probably would have had children growing up right alongside George or Evelyn, and yet they speak to him in a very paternal way, asking after him each morning now.

He would be dead and buried, but since he’s been frozen and literally pulled in and out of time, only now is he finally thawed out and warming up to life. Things are steady, normal. He’s only taking a few missions, and so he’s starting to fill in the pieces of what the rest of a life could look like. He started volunteering at the library and there’s a position coming open that he’s being encouraged to apply for. He doesn’t need the paycheck, but he thinks he would like the stability of it – contributing to something, being needed, and for something practically anyone could do.

Bucky feels an awkward twinge, glances up, and looks around. He’s not the only one who noticed a disturbance in the normalcy of the café as he notes others are looking up and uncomfortably watching an atypical scene developing between a couple of people waiting for their orders near the pickup counter. A man in a sharp business suit with perfectly sculpted hair is speaking to you with more and more urgency as you try to naturally sidle away to other parts of the waiting area. Bucky’s seen you just two or three times come in and get your drink to go, so he thinks you’re probably new to the area, but this man clearly bothering you is unfamiliar to the morning crowd Bucky has become familiar with.

Something about the man reminds him too much of John Walker, of all people, and when that realization registers in his head, Bucky’s up and moving without even thinking.

“Oh, there you are,” he says, drawing close enough to put his hand gently on your shoulder. “I must have missed you coming in. I got us a table over there if you want to sit. I’ll bring your drink over.”

He can see he’s startled you, your eyes a little wide as you turn away from the stranger to look at him, but you do seem at last glad enough to have him give you an elegant exit from the situation with the finance bro. “Thanks, Bucky.”

Oh.

You know who he is.

He makes sure to keep a casual expression on his face as you walk around him toward the table he’d indicated. Bucky gives a gruff nod to the man who’d been badgering you and the man nods back. They’re of a similar height, but Bucky knows he’s got the muscles and glare to best him in any situation. Bucky pointedly looks him up and down and the man turns slightly and pulls out his phone to immerse himself in something and disengage from the situation. He can feel the atmosphere of the café return to normal.

Bucky looks back over at his table, and you’re just sliding your chair up to the table, your back to him. He knows he shouldn’t be surprised to still be recognized now and then. As much as he’s trying to blend in, he knows the Avenger part of his identity is part of public discourse, especially since his pardon trials when even more of his past was presented and up for debate.

“Bucky?” Tina slides a drink and a small plate with a croissant and jam on the counter. “Here’s that order,” she says. She pointedly turns the to-go cup so the side where Tina’s written your name is facing Bucky and gives him a wink and a warm smile. She knows Bucky, while friendly, doesn’t go out of his way to talk to the other patrons.

When Bucky sets your drink and croissant on the table and takes his seat again, he glances over just in time to see the other man look over at the two of you without appearing to look and the frown on his face grows. And with that half second now past, he can focus on you in front of him.

“I didn’t order anything with my drink,” you protest.

“A little something from Tina, then,” Bucky reassures you. “She likes to take care of her regulars.”

“Oh, that’s – she’s nice.”

Bucky likes the small smile that brings to your face. “I’m sorry I got you out of one undesirable situation only to make you have to sit with me until that guy leaves,” he says.  

“Maybe I should thank him,” you respond with a nervous laugh, ducking your head a little. “I noticed you the first time I came in, was a little starstruck, and I was determined never to come back, but the coffee’s too good and too close to my place, so I said I’d just get my drinks to go and never embarrass myself trying to figure out how to talk to you.”

“So, then I shouldn’t tell you that guy’s walking out the door right now and you’d be free to leave if I want to talk to you for a few more minutes?” Bucky asks.

“I should probably stay here until I finish this coffee and croissant just in case he’s waiting outside.”

“Sound logic,” Bucky agrees, and the two of you relax into your seats, and time both speeds up and slows down as the conversation unfurls between the two of you.

Have you got any hcs you give to different frame types like in behaviours or habits and culture. Like miners, warframe.seekers, praxian etc.

I always find it so hard to find other world building lore and hcs on other frame types. Usually only seeker stuff which I love. Just don’t know anything about grounders.

Oh and if you know any places I can find some please recommend them. :]

I've been holding onto this ask for a little while and I really wanna do it well but. All I have concretely are seeker thoughts (._. )

Sooo time to wing it and talk about the few things that I do have! I could talk to you about the entire political sphere of Vos and the intricacies of its independent society, but... I don't have near as much detail and planning for any of the other cities. I guess the only ones that come close are Polyhex and Crystal City, but that's not what we're here for

I'm rambling. I'll stop now. ANYWAY. Thoughts about warframes... 🤔 admittedly these may not be very spicy, but have some more homey ones, typically set in the context before or void of their oppression:

- Warframes in general are very touchy but private people. Under unfamiliar eyes they may seem cold and apathetic or even disdainful, but in a comfortable social context they're actually rather tactile. Not just in the very tender ways seen among close family, but I'm more playful, heavy ways among friends. Many activities were social for them, and they tend to form strong bonds with their groups and clans. Bathing was one of the most common social activities, helping wash each other's backs and preening transformation seams.

- Frametypes best suited for mining really, really enjoy a good cave so long as it's not functioning as a prison. Many of them have very sensitive optics, meant to see in near complete darkness, so strobe lights or particularly bright sunshine will have them flinching back before their vision adjusts. Yoo long in too bright light can cause optic strain or even migraines, if they're unlucky. Caves are the perfect remedy for that, and most miners really love a dark, personalized place with natural walls on all sides and a ceiling above them. Perfect, dark, safe den

- Next is the Praxians. My most outstanding idea for them is that their chevrons and doorwings are very important sensory organs. Their wings function almost like a second pair of optics, reading changes in the wind and the airspace behind them, giving them a much more articulate awareness yo their surroundings than most. On the other side, their chevrons are very sensitive, packed with nearly 3x the normal amount of sensory nodes compared to the rest of their bodies. With it they can detect changing moisture or gases in the air, as well as more acutely hone in on scents and temperature changes. In Praxian families, the most intimate form of greeting or comfort is to press one's forehead against another's, letting their chevrons line up and gently touch. Done right, it can stimulate warmth and calm just as holding something warm in your hands can, and to touch someone's chevron without their position is the gravest insult

Sorry there's not more of these! I tried my best, so I hope you were at least a little entertained 😅 if you wanna chat more about any of these, you know where to find me ^-^

[oncasette]

happy birthday, my love!! 🎉🎉 - i hope your birthday is super extra special just like you!! ... now for your celebration, may i start with: SHERIFF OF AREA FIVE. send two numbers + a character from this list & receive a drabble/blurb

so how about 🤔 7 and 13 + aemond targaryen?

dream girl evil by florence + the machine

semi-nsfw! not explicit but suggestive

aemond targaryen was an enigma. a mommy’s boy, too, no doubt, but one you couldn’t figure out past that.

you’d spent the last decade trying to. his mother had sent you away to casterly rock when you were fifteen after you’d shared little more than a chaste kiss with her son in the courtyard. it’d been the last time you’d seen the one-eyed prince before you’d been shipped off to live with your aunt.

you’ve only returned to king’s landing for a short time, at your uncle’s hand, but you’d caught sight of the prince more than you’d expected. he’d grown since you’d seen him last. matured. held his head higher and walked with his shoulders back, rather than the hunched boy you’d once known.

it was almost as if he’d been seeking you out. this phantom of his past life, when he’d all but toyed with the idea of marrying for pleasure.

he’d thought about you for years. thought about you constantly went you’d been shipped off, a medley of all the viscous ideas his mother had pumped his head full of and the sweetness of the kiss you’d left him with. he’d thought about you at night, in his bed, with the haze of lust fogging up his head.

he sees you, now, and you’re nothing of the girl he remembered. nothing of the soft white gowns or sun-warmed skin pressed against his. you’re sharper, now, with eyes that brush past his as if he was no more than a phantom hidden in the corner of the room.

maybe his mother had been right after all.

[rom-e-o]

Bess and Connie hanging out for a sister-in-law night, watching probably '365 Days' because they like to rag on bad movies now and then:

Bess: Do ever sometimes just... fantasize about letting him use you as... like a sex doll? Like, just letting him pose you and move you and touch you and use you to find his pleasure however he wants? And you just get to lie there because you know you can trust him, and watch him lose control because of you and how sexy you are and how much he loves you?

First of all, YES. I love the idea of them ragging on that whole series. They would have a blast picking it apart. (“There literally eating spaghetti for every meal - this is supposed to be Italy, right? The stereotypes!”, “Okay; the way he pinned her to that bed? So rude! Check her back, it may be broken!”)

ALSO BESS, GIRL. 👏 I love her bringing up these random fantasies (like this, or the sweater vest kink). It really shows how safe and open she feels, which makes me (and Connie) so happy. 🥹

Connie just being like “…Not personally, BUT, when you phrase it like that, I’ll admit…it is an intriguing concept.” 🤔

Then as the movie goes on, THAT IDEA becomes more interesting, haha.

“So, when you think about it like that, does he choose your clothes and lingerie too? What about make-up. Oh, the idea of him doing my make-up and dressing me…it’s warm in here.” 🥵

Weekend Update 01/14/2024

Hey Nerdie! Posting kind late tonight?

Yeah, I worked this weekend. Not bad as far as weekends go.

That’s good. Anything new?

Making a list of Pedro and Oscar shows and movies I wanna watch while I’m off for the next few days.

Going to see a movie with my Mom Tuesday. Also she wants to come over my house to watch “The Grey Man” because it has Regé-Jean Page in it. The more stuff I watch with my mom, the more is becomes apparent that I get my fangirling honestly. 🤔 Interesting. She would never say she is, but I know. Anytime they almost call security on you at a convention, you’re fangirling too hard.

You still have that pickle…can you get rid of it?

That gherkin has grown on me, but I may find something else. 👀

I mean…but what….should we not complain about the pickle then?

Complain about what you want doesn’t mean I’m going to change it. 😎 Or maybe I will. 🤗

Oh dear…I don’t like the glint in your eye. You write anything this week?

I put out two fics this week. One was angsty and sad? I think. 🤔 Not really sure how to describe it but I like it. It’s my first Santiago Garcia fic. Titled “Canto para mí mismo / I sing for myself.” Grief and PTSD. Not heavy at all. It will be a 4 part series.

Then I followed that up with Marcus Pike smut. I wanted to add to the Pike Pool. I had thots about Marcus and “She’s Under the Weather” was written.

I also gave two dissertations on Oscar Isaac’s facial hair and what’s the best date a PP character could surprise you with? @rhoorl and @i-own-loki game me much to think about and to write. 🤣

I’m finishing up a challenge. I may be able to finish it on time. 👀 It’s just going to smell like old pita bread and metal. Like I didn’t know what else to do with the material! The time period is messing me up. 😑

I thought of a short series for Marcus from a movie tag game I think. The thots were thotting with @magpiepills and @maggiemayhemnj so when we have an angsty sexy menace of a Marcus Pike, see these two for your concerns. 🫣

I also fell into whatever Trash Panda pillow fort Dieter has made. I’m working on chapter 4 of “Weddings 101 Dieter.” I had some notes from some comment I made about Dieter doing a solo activity that has now blossomed into smut to the music of Donna Summer. Because if you’re gonna do it, make it disco 🪩 Lastly, working on my Bubble AU where Dieter picks OFC to bunk with him to help him sleep. That’s not going to turn into anything is it? Maybe sweet, maybe manipulative, maybe smut, maybe silly 😝

I think just for @mysterious-moonstruck-musings I’ll include a pomelo in one of my future fics. Might be in the Javier Peña one we talked about or a different one. 😘 We also mentioned another project idea with different food:

A plantain as a prop would be hilarious with the line randomly chosen, “I thought everyone knew how to use one of those, you don’t?” 🤣🤣🤣

The comments and tags are where the comedy gold is. 😂😂😂 I think we also mentioned a family gathering 😂

Good grief Nerdie….should we even ask if there’s anything else?

Still working on school. Took a break from the Statistics class was frustrating me very much. Instead working through a scholarship and leadership class. 😒 I might be useful one day, but likely not.

Have a great week everyone and stay warm!

Love Nerdie! ❤️🪩

[ladytauria]

👻 What is one WIP you think you may never pick back up?

🤔hmmm

so in recent years i've mostly stopped posting wips bc, despite the best of intentions i have a hard time finishing them lol

buuut. looking through my drafts...

there are a couple i don't see myself working on again any time soon lmao.

two in particular stand out. one is a selkie!jason wip & the other is one that was, according to my notes, inspired by a fancomic. past me did not think to leave a link to this comic, bc she's helpful like that <3

the latter wip takes place at a winter gala. tim is by himself, keeping an eye on the others & making his rounds through the gala, checking off a mental list of people to talk to. he's kinda starting to flag, though; keeping up his timothy drake-wayne personality through so many conversations is kinda taking a toll on him.

and as he's mid conversation with one of the people on his list--

“Excuse me.” Tim catches a whiff of expensive cologne, chased by gunpowder, smoke, and leather. A warm hand finds the small of his back, and—almost without his own permission—he finds himself relaxing into it. “I hate to interrupt, but—” Jason steps into view, dressed to the nines in a perfectly fitted tux and deep red waistcoat. His hair is artfully messy; a roguish smile on his face. “Could I have this dance?” He cocks his brow. Tim knows him well enough to see the nerves—the sheepishness in his eyes, the way he braces himself for rejection. He doesn’t have anything to worry about. Tim is helplessly, hopelessly endeared. He barely manages to tamp down on his grin, keeping his answering smile something more polite.

their relationship at this point is still new and tentative--it started when one of their cases crossed, and each realized the other was working a lot of hard, dangerous cases with little to no back up. which was fine when they were doing it, but not so fine that the other is. u know. the usual :P

so they start working together. mostly. but then jason gets injured doing something dumb, without calling for tim like he should have. and tim reminds him that they'r partners. the whole point of them teaming up was that neither of them is supposed to be fighting alone anymore.

which---when tim asks why jason is at the gala, when he hates them & also has no reason to be there since he's not been legally resurrected... jason tells him more or less the same thing.

"we're partners, right? no more fighting alone."

and then tim kisses him in front of everyone, not caring even a little bit that it will probably be all over the society pages the next morning <3

but! i have two issues with this fic. issue a) writing the gala. and then issue b) it almost feels like it should be a scene in a longer work, so i can work that backstory in? but i don't... really have a plot. i could probably make it work anyway, but! i dunno. right now too many other wips have my attention so even if i don't abandon this one entirely, it will be a long time before i pick it back up.

and then the selkie!jason wip is p easy to explain. i had an idea for a single, solitary, poignant scene and utterly NO ideas for the plot that would lead UP TO that lovely scene.

so.

here's the scene, which would, theoretically, be the closing lines:

Jason runs his thumb over his coat, the leather of its disguise buttery soft, and watches Tim. He’s utterly at ease on Jason’s couch, scrolling through his phone, one arm dangling off the armrest. Jason swallows, stomach twisting with nerves. He takes a breath—in through the nose, out through the mouth. Then, he strides forward, clenching his coat a bit tighter. He kneels in front of Tim, capturing his attention. His phone falls to the side as Tim’s brows furrow. Before he can ask what Jason is doing, Jason unfurls his coat, wrapping it around Tim’s shoulders. His eyes grow wide. “Ja— wh—“ Jason can feel the heat on his face. Knows he has to be pink, at the very least. But he doesn’t stop, tugging Tim forward and into the briefest, chastest kiss before resting their foreheads together. “Caught you,” he murmurs. The smile he receives is the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen.

context? ur guess is as good as mine <3

Hi!!!

I have a question regarding my chart-

What type of partner do I attract? How do I maximize my best traits in order to attract stable partners in love?

Thank you so much!!!

Hi😊 This is new to me so I had to research for your reading. Specially from tiktok.

First of all, without birth time everything in this reading may not resonate.

I am going to analyse the energies In your chart specially rising, ruler of rising, planets conjunct ascendant, venus, mars and midheaven.

RISING AND RULER

Your rising is in pisces conjunct mercury, uranus and aquarius sun. This to me indicates that the way you present yourself in the world is very unique, different, versatile, flexible, playful, dreamy, creative, outstanding and romantic.

The ruler of your rising jupiter is in libra in 7th house indicating that relationships are really important in your life, you aproach them with positivity and hopefullness, you probably need balance/equality and mutual respect in relationships.

Based on this to establish your own brand I would suggest you to wear in terms of:

Clothing/hair:

maximalist, bright colors (yellow/green), bright, half or two toned hair color, ringue and bracelets, comfortable, fitness clothing, earth tone colors, vintage/timeless clothing, old money aesthetics, suits,structured, brown,gray, dark colors, badass, elements of punk/rock/futurism, rebellious clothing, statement shirts, blue color(indigo), gold accessories, hair volume, warm/fiery colors (yellow/orange/blonde/etc), pieces that make a statement, dreamy, ethereal, soft/pastel colors,mermaid core, light green,theatrical fashion, pink, mean girl aesthetics, floral, Y2K,etc.

VENUS

Now you have venus in aquarius in the 12th house(pisces), so to attract people you should be more creative (use your talents), mysterious, wise, embrace your unique ideas/dreams, spirituality, desires to change the world, be extraordinary, out of this world, a rebel romantic.

In this case you should wear:

Clothing/hair:

vintage/timeless clothing, old money aesthetics, suits,structured, brown, gray,dark colors, badass, elements of punk/rock/futurism, rebellious clothing, statement shirts, blue color(indigo), dreamy, ethereal, soft/pastel colors,mermaid core,light green, theatrical fashion, etc.

Example: flowy dress with combat boots

MARS

Okay you have mars in capricorn in 11th (aquarius) house that explains why you are drawn to stable partners which is actually opposite to saturn in cancer of 5th house dating interesting🤔 you probably feel conflicted between emotional connections and financial stability.

If you want to seduce stable men I would say get out there lol and work creatively, go out with friends, pursue your dreams/passion, try expanding your social network online or groups that support/share your goals, participate in community events/charities/volunteering, work with them, etc.

In terms of what you should wear:

Clothing/hair

vintage/timeless clothing, old money aesthetics, suits, classic,structured, gray, dark colors, badass, elements of punk/rock/futurism, rebellious clothing, statement shirts, blue color(indigo),

Example: indigo/blue suit with sneakers or punk/graphic shirt with vintage jeans

MIDHEAVEN

Last but not least the midheaven, yours is in sagittarius conjunct pluto so midheaven talks about your status,  reputation, public persona and career. In your case you display a very positive/optimistic/philosophical/open minded attitude in your career or to the public but with a twist of mystery and depth (you might have went through some ups and downs in your career mostly, you might make other people think you are wise/powerful/intense/scary lol)

To embody this energy you should wear:

Clothing/hair

Loose clothes, baggy jeans and oversized, long big skirts, comfortable to wear (think of Billie Eilish), purple, darker shades/colors, black, dark femme Fatale, sharp/pointy things, sexy, gothic, piercings, tattoos, etc.

Example: purple baggy jeans with Black tank top and leather jacket

P.S. Moral of the story just be yourself💋👌🫰

[carnivorousyandeere]

SFW Alphabet: Hana

CW: kidnapping mention, alcohol abuse mention

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

Hana shows affection physically, but also by doing stunts to try and impress you– skateboard tricks, eating weird combinations of foods, taking dares, etc. She really wants you to look up to her and think she’s cool. Hana will also try to be verbally affectionate and smooth, but ends up blushing and stuttering over her own words 2/3rds of the time 😭💕

B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)

Hana is a fun, adventurous best friend~! Trying out all the cool local restaurants, finding fun spots to hang out– parks, caves, etc. She also likes watching movies with you, especially horror movies (even though they legitimately scare her). She also loves having sleepovers with you and Mateo, and going to parties with the two of you (and probably Ace) as well. She’s also very fond of taking edibles and just spending the afternoon/night watching cartoons together if you’re 420-friendly 💕

C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

Hana does like cuddling, especially in bed or on the couch. She’s partial to being your big spoon or jetpack. She also likes leaning with her head on your shoulder. Another favorite of Hana’s is you laying down with your head in her lap~

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

Hana likes the idea of settling down and working to provide for the both of you. She’s alright at cleaning and cooking, but has a tendency to get bored and distracted, and accidentally leave things half-finished or, in the case of cooking, overdone/burnt. She kicks ass with a grill though 🤤

E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

Hana screams and cries into her pillows for DAYS if you break up with her. She will definitely kidnap you if it becomes clear you’re really not going to come back willingly soon. She’s not a patient woman.

F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

Hana wants to be married, like, yesterday!!! But she’ll give it a month or two before she really brings it up to you… She loves the idea of being mutually committed to one another. Sidenote, she is really conflicted about whether she wants to wear a suit or an edgier wedding dress for the ceremony 🤔

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

Hana is a little bit rough-and-tumble, but if you’re not into that she’ll try really hard to be gentler with you. Hana is a liiiiittle emotionally constipated as well, but she really tries to be honest and open with you, and to help you feel safe and warm with her!!

H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)

Hana likes hugs a lot, but not so much in public. Her hugs tend to be on the lighter side overall but sometimes!! She will run up for a good tackle-hug 🥰

I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)

Hana says it pretty early on, but acts shy while saying it for a long time into the relationship~

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

Hana can get really jealous, but she uses it as motivation for her “self-improvement journey.” She wants to “earn” your attention and affection… Although at a certain point, she may resort to underhanded methods to take out the competition or scare them away.

K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

Hana’s kisses are intense– her affection just bottles up until she can’t contain it, then she’s pulling you into an alleyway, or pushing you against a tree, and devouring your lips. Her kisses are very hard and she nips at your lips a lot. She likes kissing your neck and shoulders to make you whine and shiver, and she likes it when you kiss her lips. Softer kisses usually come after those hard kisses, almost like an apology for the initial brashness.

L = Little ones (How are they around children?)

Hana is a better influence on kids than Ace, but similar to him, they both try to teach kids skateboarding tricks and stuff like that soooo injuries may occur. Sorry. 😭 Other than that she’d make a good Lady Dad. I have no idea how else to phrase that, that probably sounds so weird, but I just know she teaches them how to use a grill, catch a football, and hit a homerun. Sit on the couch next to them watching saturday morning cartoons sitting the exact same way, both eating heaping bowls of cereal. Stereotypical Dad stuff 😅💕

M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)

Hana wakes up bright and early and has to fight the urge to wake you up to playfight or go for a run together if you’re not a morning person. She’s also very excited for breakfast, Hana fucking LOVES breakfast foods, and Hunter makes a kickass continental breakfast.

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)

Hana wants to lay down with you, cuddling and making out, tracing her fingers over your face and watching you lean into her touch~ Just very soft, and (perhaps unexpectedly) romantic~

O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)

Hana really tries to be upbeat and unbothered, bold in what she says, but she does hide some things about herself— in the sense that she’s always pretending to be tougher and less nervous than she is? The vulnerability to share her soft underbelly with you will come with time.

P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)

Medium, I guess? She gets annoyed easily for sure, but it takes a looooot to make her truly angry.

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

Hana will definitely remember the big things, but smaller things may slip through the cracks. Her determination to remember next time pretty well makes up for it, though. She’s so endearing in her determination to do right by you, it’s hard to stay annoyed if and when she does slip up.

R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)

Hana remembers the first time she ever made you laugh the most fondly— the sound filled her heart to bursting and she couldn’t help but stare, cheeks warming at the angelic way you looked in that moment 💕

S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)

Hana gets an adrenaline rush when protecting you, and can definitely eviscerate whoever or whatever is physically threatening you, but the minute the threat is gone she’s shaking and clinging to you. The earnest way she buries her face into you and says she was so scared to lose you is both heartbreaking and incredibly endearing.

She doesn’t want to need protection! 

That being said, there is a situation where you might need to– when she insists that she can kill a bug in the house, but then it starts flying. Then she’s screaming, you’re screaming, and Hunter has to come kill it if you can’t or won’t (Ace would laugh and not do anything to help, Mateo would snicker and also not do anything to help, Cyrus has his headphones on, and Mason is probably busy).

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

Hana puts 110% into everything she does, and these are no different! The first few dates might be a little awkward as she’s still figuring out what you like, but eventually she’ll get the hang of what you like and is a perfect gentleman💕💕💕

Her gifts tend to be small, but incredibly thoughtful.

U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)

Pushing herself too hard and ending up hurt from it– injuries from skateboard stunts, stress fractures, pulled muscles, working out too hard too fast, and just getting worn slap out are too common for Hana :(

V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)

Hana’s kind of concerned, I think? She really wants to get stronger and look strong. Other than that, her hair and makeup are more about what she thinks is fun to do, rather than about what other people think. Except for you— if you have a certain type, Hana might try to slowly change her appearance to fit that.

W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

Yes, Hana would be despondent. Her grief would really unlock some previously untapped wells of anger and aggression, and she would get lost in drinking and fighting.

X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)

Hana loves butterflies and moths, and has a collection of art from online and pictures she’s taken of them taped to her wall. She also has a lot of books and printed out research papers about them— their biology, migratory habits, and picture-filled atlases of which species live where 🥹💕

Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)

Hana doesn’t like it if you tease her too much, and make fun of her efforts to get stronger, and tougher. She and Ace get into spats over that stuff quite a bit, and he laughs and says she’s yipping just like a little dog, which only makes her more mad, he says she’s cute when she’s mad, and it spirals until she storms off to go aggressively work out. 

Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habit of theirs?)

Hana sleeps in a tank top and sweatpants, and sometimes wears an eyemask to bed. She also doesn’t sleep very long at night, instead making it up with naps during the day. She has one stuffed animal that she’s kept since childhood and still sleeps with. It’s missing a button eye, and is a little worse for wear, but she loves that rabbit to death and plans to never part with it.

Well. I may have pop a lil fic as a warm up (thank you @cocotter for unblocking the dopamine by simply tagging me on the WIP game, it helped me passing from just thinking of little stories to actively wanting to write them, so yeah thank you so much)

It's a little Fox-centered fix-it fic about how he live this newfound peace time after the war. I might post it once I deemed it completely over if it interest some people ! I just really want to talk about it because I have a lot of fun working on it ☺️

Anyway, got some other ideas I should definitely try to work on so it may not be the only ramble post I'll do 🤔 (I surely hope so at least !)

[maybege]

Hi, May! How are you?

Maybe I’ve just lost my sense of time but it feels like forever since I last messaged you! And so many things have happened since then.

I’ve almost finished my last term paper from last semester! But it’s just taking some time still because I keep hanging out with my friends and family instead of writing 😅🙈

I’ve also started the new semester and I genuinely love all of my classes this semester! And work is finally going more smoothly again, too, now that the stress of exam and writing season is starting to wear off ☺️

And I’m still going to therapy and it’s genuinely so great?! Sometimes I wonder why I didn’t start doing this sooner cause damn it’s nice. I still remember seeing your therapy posts and thinking “maybe this isn’t actually scary 🤔” and damn I’m glad I’m tried it. Now I just gotta figure out how to get my health insurance to pay for it/pay me back. Which is annoying cause bureaucracy is just always such a unnecessarily difficult thing!

I’ve also started to finally figure out what to wear to the eras tour and I’m excited to see if my idea works out ☺️☺️

Also: my thoughts about that new paz fic are still going to be coming! But I’ve been so busy with stuff that I didn’t have time to sit down and properly write out my thoughts yet 😅 but I’m sure it’s gonna be great cause your writing is always amazing 🧡

So yeah, that was a lot. But how are you doing? Is anything happening that you’re excited about/looking forward too?

Hello my dear! How awesome to see you in my inbox 🥺

There is nothing better, imo, than that transition from exam/termpaper season into a fresh new semester where these burdens do not yet exist. And even better that all of your courses are the right choice for you, that is so cool!!!

And I am sure that term paper will be finished quicker than you think but sometimes you just gotta take that extra social time and that is something to rarely regret 🥰

Also I am so happy that therapy is going well for you! I remember how nervous and kinda scared (?) I was when I first started it but now that I am done with it, it is amazing to look back and see how much it helped me. 🥺 Though I certainly do not envy you when it comes to dealing with the insurance - pressing my thumbs for you that it all goes well and smoothly and you get reimbursed for these very important costs!

OHH I AM SO JEALOUS YOU ALREADY GOT THAT FIGURED OUT!!! I still have no idea!! I know that I am very (very very very) lucky to get to see it 2x and I have a *slight* idea for one of the nights but other than that, time is passing and I have less and less ideas lol Because I know it will be summer and warm and the way we get there is also up in the air so the outfit not only has to be stylish but also very comfortably for a variety of settings 💀

And take your time reading the Paz fic cause I am certainly taking my time writing it lol There is a lot going on socially atm which I am kind of excited about but I am also exhausted from social interactions and would like to take 5 business days off society and just hide in my apartment and write. Other than that, I am very well! I hope you have a lovely weekend!

[dballzposting]

That pic about Trunks and Yamcha got me thinking, like you just gave au ideas here 😃 like Yamcha being like a father figure to Trunks when Vegeta is MIA or off training somewhere. And that is so sweet that yamcha would send a birthday card to Trunks (I don't think Vegeta does any real domestic father son bonding in canon 🤔 ). And then there is another au idea where Vegeta getting jealous and trying to be more of a father to Trunks and a husband to Bulma where there will be awkward and hilarious situations happening 😆 and Vegeta eventually asking for tips and advice from yamcha but Yamcha is pretty much clueless to what was happening and just being a nice guy who always gives birthday cards, and holiday cards out to everyone 😁 sorry if this was long, just had to share this with you 😅😊

YAY

I was HOPING that that post would inspire headcanons !!!

I just didn't know if I'd see them. And also I thought that it would have taken a few more posts by me on the subject.

I wasn't expecting the warm reception on that comic .. I would have put a bit more effort into crafting the pics if I had known #LOL.

Yamucha held Trunks as a baby more than Vegeta did. Vegeta SAID that he never held Trunks ONCE until he hugged him during the Majin Buu shit. This is a normal and common fact but I feel like if Trunks heard it phrased that way - that Yamucha held Trunks as a baby more than Vegeta did - then it would strike him a bit ... Because in his memory he obviously associates more with his father than with Yamucha, if he heard it phrased that way then it may register as "actually yamucha and I go way back and I just didn't remember" and then it would feel weird to keep treating yamucha like they dont know each other.

Yamucha sends cards becasue of course he does .. It was a practice that was started in a way that was kind of cheeky and more for Bulma's benefit than anything .. It's not uncommon that a baby will receive a gift that is more helpful to the parent than to the baby. So Yamucha sending a baby a birthday card as if it can read was, in his opinion, really funny. Also his way of responding to the fact that He Did Not Receive an Invitation to the baby's First Birthday Party (Bulma just didn't send any out... everyone should KNOW that there's gonna be a party :eye rolling emoji:). Other than that, Yamucha usually does manage to arrive at the birthday parties, but he doesn't always bring gifts (or gifts that are cool to anyone but himself), and sometimes he shows up late, and sometimes he gets drunk with the adults before even having a chance to see the kid (and of course it's more fun for Trunks to do literally anything else on his special day than talk to adults), so, the card is just something Yamucha always does as a back-up / commitment to the bit.

But yknow. Vegeta never even says "happy birthday" to the little guy. And that's fine because that's just the way he is and he expresses love in other ways and Trunks loves him too and this is just how they do it, this is the language of affection that is unique to Vegeta and it's fine because Trunks has learned how to speak it, BUT, YKNOW, there's potential for a story of Trunks discovering how Nice it is to have an adult just be NICE and WARM to him, easily, and who will give him attention without being asked to in contexts other than training and improving oneself.

I used to think about a similar thing when musing about Trunks's Uncle Tarble, but that was specifically when Trunks goes through his tumultuous teen years, and he appreciates the fact that someone is willing to appreciate him as he is and without needing him to be better. Whereas I feel like Yamcuha could be / would be a beneficial presence in Trunks's life when he's a younger kid, and he really just needs to warmth of a parent.

Trunks's parents are doing fine given everything, but it takes a village to raise a kid, and Yamucha is a part of that village.

Oh dear now I'VE gone on for too long..!

BACK TO YOUR ASK: THE SECOND AU: OMG THAT'S SO SILLY... the thing is I thought of a similar thing in my Tarble Days, where everyone loves Tarble because he's nice and considerate, and Vegeta literally concedes defeat and asks Tarble How He Can Be A Better Presence For His Family. But it's a totally different vibe if it's Yamucha .. like there are similarities (tarble & yamucha both Suck in Vegeta's eyes) but there are differences in that .....

Yamucha has known Bulma for longer and is a human himself and maybe he's just more naturally in-touch...?

Maybe there's something about Trunks's human side that Vegeta just isn't speaking to...?

Maybe Vegeta STILL doesn't understand family even after all of this time...?

But what is he to do ... have movie night with them? He hates movies. Talk to his wife more? He hates talking. Hold his son's hand more? One time he saw Yamucha holding Trunks's hand and Trunks's tiny hand completely disappeared in Yamucha's garage of a fist and Vegeta didn't know how he was supposed to feel about that ... He looked at his own hands and wondered if they would be good enough.....

Vegeta trying to have movie night with his family to prove that He Can but he just sits there with his arms crossed the whole time & it doesn't seem like he's enjoying it and it just doesn't suit him .. and it makes it all More Awkward for everyone else..

Anyway. I like to think that Yamucha IS aware of the ways that he is a nice presence for Trunks, just because he's good with kids the way that a fun uncle is, and becasue he's older and wiser than he used to be and he can read people better than he used to .. and he knows more about what's needed by the soul and body and mind ....

HOWEVER. He doesn't realize that Vegeta would look at the friendship that he has with Bulma as something that Vegeta needs to learn from. And though Yamucha knows Bulma & Vegeta pretty well and can parse out what Trunks is missing at home based on that and Trunks's behaviors, he's not actually a parent himself & he has no intentions of being one anytime soon & he doesnt think about it that hard & so he doesnt know that when he lets Trunks come over with Goten to make roasted chestnuts and watch Caddyshack (1980) at his cabin, that that's something that makes Vegeta feel insecure in his role and value as a father.

So YEAH. Vegeta would confront Yamucha and ask him how he can Be Better, and Yamucha would be like "....HUH?"

Yamucha would scratch his head and roll his shoulders and eventually manage to express: "Well... Have you tried just talking to your family? And, like, listening?"

and Vegeta would either blow that off as an unhelpful suggestion OR be so embarrassed that it was that simple all along that he'd walk away in shame.

THANK YOU !!
