Pt2 to this post
'Is something wrong?' Nancy asks, not long after the two of them have taken their familiar spots on the hood of Steve's car. They're basking in what might be the last warm sunlight of the year, looking out over the quarry, at a safe distance from the edge.
It's become a tradition the two of them share, ever since they reconnected back in March. It calms them both, to just sit here and take in the view, no one around but each other. Nancy is one of the few people Steve can share a comfortable silence with: sometimes they sit here quietly for what feels like hours, side by side, listening to music or to nothing but the birds singing around them. But they also have their best conversations here: it's the place where Nancy entrusted him she wanted to break up with Jonathan; it's the place where they talked about their shared past and decided they would always love each other as friends; it's the place where they finally talked about Barbara in a way they couldn't when they were younger. It's where Nancy talked about the ghosts still haunting her and Steve talked about how lonely he sometimes felt.
Steve huffs. 'How did you guess?'
'When you frown, you always do it with your whole face,' Nancy notes. 'So it's hard to miss, really.'
Steve glances at her side profile. There's a serenity to her features that's still relatively new. It means she's healing, slowly learning how to be happy again. It means she stopped waiting for the end of the world and started believing in a real future again. It makes Steve proud of how far they both have come.
'I had a fight with Eddie,' he confesses. 'And with Dustin, I guess.'
'What happened?'
He sighs. 'It's complicated.'
'Wanna tell me about it?'
The look in her eyes is kind and inviting. Steve hesitates. He wants to, but he doesn't know if he can. It's a risk. It's scary.
But he can't imagine Nancy Wheeler ever being careless with his secrets. He can't imagine her judging him, can't imagine her being as small-minded as most people in this town.
He was planning on telling her anyway, because things had been going so well with Eddie lately and â no, he shouldn't think about that right now. But maybe it would actually be nice to talk about it with Nancy.
'So, um...' His throat feels tight and his hands are sweaty. 'I recently discovered some things about myself. I-' The words get stuck somewhere on the way to his mouth, and he clears his throat.
Nancy doesn't push, but only gives him an encouraging nod, waiting for him to find his voice again.
'I found out I like boys,' he finally manages to confess. 'And I need you to know that â that that doesn't mean that what I felt for you wasn't real. It was. I loved you, and now I fell in love with a boy. And-'
'Steve.' Nancy's hand suddenly covers his, causing him to finally jerk his head away from the view over the quarry, to focus on her face again instead.
Her eyes are wide, and she squeezes his hand.
'You don't have to explain yourself to me,' she tells him. 'We're good. But thank you for telling me. For trusting me with this.'
Steve heaves out a relieved sigh, and Nancy smiles; it's that genuine kind of smile which reveals all kinds of dimples and soft lines across her face.
'We might be more similar than you thought,' she tells him, a faint blush spreading over her cheeks.
'Really?' Her words make his breath catch in his throat. He squints at her, trying to see her in this new light. 'Are you saying what I think you're saying?'
She shrugs. 'I don't know. I'm not sure yet,' she admits. 'Still figuring things out.'
'Take your time, there's no rush,' he tells her. 'But...' He bumps his shoulder against hers. 'When you're done figuring it out, talk to me, okay?'
She nods. 'Okay.'
For a while, it's quiet between the two of them. Some kind of raptor circles high above them in the sky. They both follow it with their eyes until it disappears among the tree tops west of the quarry.
'Is it Eddie?'
Steve blinks dumbly a couple of times.
'Wha- what?'
'The guy you were talking about. The one you fell in love with. It's Eddie, isn't it?'
'Jesus, Wheeler, what kind of sorceress are you?' Steve exclaims.
Nancy laughs again. 'You're not being as subtle as you think,' she tells him. 'The two of you have been hooking up for a while now, haven't you?'
Steve huffs dramatically. 'This is unfair. You know everything; I can't even tell you my own secrets anymore!'
'So what happened?' Nancy asks. 'You said you had a fight with him?'
'It's fucking stupid,' he sighs. 'Dustin was getting way too excited about the fact that I was gonna be hanging out with you, so I told him I was seeing someone. Next thing I knew, he was telling Eddie all about how I was seeing a girl.' He waves his hands around to make annoyed air quotations. 'I wanted to tell Eddie it was a misunderstanding, but Dustin was there, so I couldn't out us just like that, and he looked so betrayed and heartbroken... He didn't wanna listen to me.'
Steve sighs; he still can't manage to forget that look in Eddie's eyes when Dustin delivered the big news. 'I wish I would've talked about what I felt for him earlier. I should've been honest when I had the chance, y'know. But I was afraid he wouldn't wanna label what we had, that he wouldn't feel the same way â and now we're in this whole mess. God, he must hate me right now, Nance.'
To his surprise, Nancy gives him an unexpected slap against his arm.
'Ouch, what the hell was that for?!'
'What are you even doing here with me, Steve? You should've gone after him, tell him how you feel!'
'I tried, obviously, but he didn't wanna listen to me!'
'So make him listen! You're in love with him, he obviously feels the same way about you, and you let him leave to wallow in a broken heart he doesn't even need to have!' She rolls her eyes and slides off the car, adding something under her breath that sounds suspiciously like an exasperated 'Boys!' before she pulls Steve off the car as well. 'C'mon, time to get your ass over to the trailer park. Right. Now,' she says through gritted teeth. And, well, Steve knows better than to argue with a determined - and truthfully quite terrifying - Nancy Wheeler.

This very specific visual trope where girl is dressed normally and guy looks like he just got back from part-time job at strip bar and hasn't had time to take off his uniform.
I'm here for it
#half-joke#just a little tired of fully clothed guys and sometimes terribly tasteless fanservice on girls#so this trope gives bonus points to the ship lol#actually in both cases I am attracted by the dynamics in the first place#but it's weird that both ships are suitable for the description#I have two nickels now :D#honkai star rail#sampostelle#robinhill

another addition to the list of fics i would love to see but dont really want to write: timkon "one of them has a crush on the other's secret civilian id without knowing it's them" but it's tim hopelessly pining for conner kent. he has no idea the supers have secret identities at all, let alone who they might be. conner kent is just a normal farmboy (who he happened to meet via convenient circumstances). just a normal kid who lives on a farm with his sweet old country (grand)parents and his rambunctious dog. just a normal guy! ...right?
#rimi talks#enough ''the bats know all the secrets''. tired trope. its time to blindside those bitches. pull the rug out from under em#also tim would simply Never mention conner kent to superboy. which is funny to me.#of course this is a very silly lighthearted au that ignores both of them needing to languish in the closet etc etc#or something. maybe they still do but this is from a version where the superfam simply keep ironclad secrets from early on#so it takes longer for kon to be able to share that with yj. which could also be a fun take. he'd haaate it#see im overthinking it this is why i don't want to write it. but as a little romcom i think it'd be fun. subvert that trope babey!!!!#timkon#tim#kon

After the fifth time that Katsuki pops up at UA, surprising Izuku with Bento for lunch, calling him "sensei" in a cocky(affectionate) tone, Kouta just stops at Izuku's desk on his way out of the room and asks him point blank,
"So are you and DynaMight actually dating, or what?"
Izuku sputtering and dropping all of his paperwork and avoiding the question out of sheer dumbfoundedness.
Then, the sixth time that Katsuki barges in, as he is thrusting the bento into Izukus hands as usual, Kota raises his hand, and stands up from his seat and yells out,
"DynaMight, sir!! Pardon me, but are you dating Deku-Sensei??" And the whole class gasps and whispers. Katsuki appears just as dumbfounded as he looks wide-eyed at Kouta and the students.
"Kouta!" Izuku balks, but then Katsuki suddenly grins mischievously. Izuku doesn't trust that look...
"Well, brat, maybe I SHOULD date him, then I could make sure Sensei doesn't forget to eat every day, right??" Katsuki looked entirely too pleased at the louder gasps and chatter that came from the students. He has a wicked grin as he turns his sharp red eyes back to Izuku.
"K-Kacchan, what are you doing?!" Izuku stammers, beet red and grabbing his arm. "This is not the time for--"
"If you don't want me disrupting your class, then stop leaving your Bento in the fridge!!" Katsuki scolds Izuku before swinging himself back out of the open window. There was a fresh wave of gasps and excited murmuring at the insinuationthat the two lived together. "We're ROOM MATES, OK?" He adds hastily, pointing his finger at the noisy classroom of kids.
He drops out the window and blasts off.
Izuku is left, stood at his desk, hands planted and hanging his head, trying to collect enough of himself to quell the riotous theories now flying around his classroom.
Kouta stands at his own desk amidst his unruly classmates, eyes narrowed as if he had just realized something, "I knew it!" He hisses.
"You're the worst," Izuku texts Katsuki later.
"I know" katsuki replies.
"Now eat your fuckin food or I'll stop making it for you."

I think I was inspired by this art post ^^;
#bakudeku#post epilogue bkdk#post epilogue drabble#deku sensei#dynamight and deku sensei#in this one they are definitely room mates :3#oh they were roommates#kouta knows the trope apparently#he is familiar with it#kacchan prepares meals each day#izuku forgets to grab his sometimes#so Katsuki flies it over to UA before going on patrol#gives sensei some grief#some days more than others#izuku now understands why aizawa is so tired all the time#kids are rowdy especially when they get wind of some tea#its ok kids katsuki is waiting until the perfect opportunity to ask izuku out#when theyre both heroes again#when theybshoot to the top of the ranking#just give it time#the class starts shipping them#izuku doesnt always remember to grab his bento even after that bc dude is tired#but kacchan always brings it and riles everyone up#its almost as if he likes doing it#likes flustering Izuku#aizawa is not pleased#he worried about the learning environment#hes this close to forbidding izuku to accept kacchan brining his lunch on campus at all#his problem children continue to be his problem#and for this drabble i am assuming that the windows in the UA classroom can open

I'm reading through the Jinlan City tag for SVSSS on AO3 again (because canon divergences for that are one of my favorite things) and I love that so many authors agree that the best way to fix things is for Shen Qingqiu and/or Luo Binghe to simply burst into tears.
#honestly one of my favorite tropes and I will never be tired of it#they're both going about it the wrong way in canon#luo binghe is angry and slightly menacing#which does NOT help matters when shen qingqiu is terrified of him#so having one of them burst into tears is perfect#because it completely disarms the other and helps them figure out that the situation isn't what they thought#bingqiu#shen qingqiu#luo binghe#svsss

the thing that sets apart hua cheng from most other devotee/worshipper-type relationships in other media is that hua cheng would actually throw himself on his knees and crawl across the floor if xie lian wanted to, he would demean himself without shame because shame comes from the perception that you have done something wrong or foolish in another's eyes, and hua cheng would never see his god's will as either, nor care for anyone's else's opinion
#i was so happy when i read tgcf because this is what i mean when i want hopelessly devoted love interests#too many of these (dark) fantasy male love interests dont even treat her with basic respect#like what do you MEAN they drag her around and demean her#theyre often assholes at best and abusers at worst#there is no devotion or worshipping to be found#''he would kill for her'' but would he make peace with his enemies for her?? would he SAVE his enemies for her??#hua cheng would#hua cheng also wouldnt dream of ordering xie lian around#he told xie lian once not to get involved with the wind and water master but when xie lian did that anyone#all he said was ''thats okay baby i told you before: just do what you want to do ill be here for you either way<3''#he only intervenes more forcefully for xie lian's protection and he clearly HATES doing that#sorry for the vent but im tired of seeing the worshipper trope done so badly!!#where are the statues!! the murals!! the devouring need to be with them!! why arent these men on their knees!!!#hua cheng#tgcf#heaven official's blessing#tian guan ci fu#xie lian#hualian

can you guys stop calling a ship "sibling-coded" just because you don't like it ? and while you're at it, can you stop defending sending death threats to people because they ship two characters that you headcanon as related ?
#don't be dumbasses in fandom spaces challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)#i'm tired#i thought we liked the best friends to lovers trope what the fuck happened ???#like headcanons are awesome and all but what the hell y'all#so many of you have no idea what found family means and it shows#fandom#fandom discourse#found family#character dynamics

Iâm so tired of them talking about the way Seth dresses. We get it. Seth actually puts thought into how he looks and you âbig manly menâ think this is inferior because itâs a âfeminineâ trait and if you could get away with saying a slur on live TV, you would call Seth a slur but you canât, so you jump around it by calling him everything else. You donât like it because it makes you uncomfortable with how comfortable Seth is, and youâre probably a little jealous of how comfortable Seth is in his skin and how good he looks. We get it, now insult Seth in some other way please.
#itâs a tired trope#you can make fun of Seth for so much#Roman should be calling Seth a backstabber#thereâs so much material#making fun of they way he dresses is lazy#wwe#wwe smackdown#Seth Rollins#roman reigns#the rock

I could write an essay on Doctor Odyssey and how the fantastical aspect of the ship isn't due to it being the purgatory or a dream but rather linked to the metatextual plot of the show and how the Odyssey is meant to be an in-universe representation of what the show aims to be in our reality, a direct answer to the effects of the COVID pandemic on our world that aims to create an atmosphere of escapism in a medical environment to create hope and happiness while still acknowledging current events. The weekly themes, along with the very goal of the show, are the strongest indicator of a meta narrative, very clearly designed with the show's weekly nature in mind. They wouldn't work as well in a show designed for streaming. Captain Massey himself says the ship is carefully built to show itself as a heaven to its guests, explaining the unrealistic scenarios and vibe of the show, but by focusing on the emergencies that happen on board the show allows the viewers to explore the cracks in that illusion and creates a place in which both serious themes and mindless fun can be equally approached. We see that contrast in 1x06 when the screen cuts from a threesome straight to the suicidal hotline screen; the episode successfully indulges in the hedonism of the cruise ship established early on without detriment to its more serious storyline, which includes one of the best portrayals of panic attacks I've ever seen on tv. Although both concepts are more clearly separated throughout the episode, the cut-off from one to another at the end is jarring, reminding the viewer of how both concepts coexist both in the Odyssey and in real life. As silly as it might be at times, the show isn't mindless, but rather a well-executed reminder that there is light at the end of every tunnel, and that maybe that light comes in the form of a Ryan Murphy network tv show about a throuple solving medical emergencies on a cruise ship.
#not to give too much credit to a ryan murphy the show but giving too much credit to a ryan murphy show#I love you hedonistic cruise ship show with emergencies connected to real world themes that acknowledges itself as being an answer to covid#anyways I wrote this to procrastinate writing what I actually need to so this means zero proof read sorry#probably only like 20% of this makes sense but do you see my vision.#this is also me coming out as a purgatory/coma dream theory hater. tired tropes are way less fun than a metatextual show. I love irony.#doctor odyssey

me when a female character I like gets labelled a mom for the 17th time
#being a hater#we should have more dads in here. more non female âmomsâ. less female moms#its 2024 and we preach gender diversity and then we go and label another woman a mom. or a very mom/caretaker-adjacent role#maybe a woman can have good and nice friendships. Maybe a woman can be the oldest of her friend group without being a âmomâ#older sister assignments are thrown around less thank god but those also tend to peeve me. Why so many older sisters and moms#maybe being a mom or mom adjacent role shouldnt be treated like an honor or aspect of utmost care/femininity/whatever so often#idk idk reinforcing old and tired gender tropes when done in excess especially when the fem characters are few#and compared to the male counterparts#blabber
