@falloutcoys CHANCE/MIKE THOUGHTS !!! :]

the thing about chance/mike is that they're the best and worst parts of each other. they're both too curious for their own good, and while their other relationships balance that self-destruction, they revel in it. this wordless thing happening between them is just a new kind of trouble that moves quick and fast until they're both drowning in thoughtless touches and shared bottles of whiskey and sneaking out of obv like they're fifteen years old and too clever for their own good and ready to fight the world even if they'll lose.

it's not good for them and they know it but that's what makes it intoxicating!! mike's existence is a scorch mark through time and chance doesn't even care about getting burned now. any cost seems worth it when they're looking back with smiles on their faces, because everything is so uncertain all of the time. chance could be dead in an hour and mike could never have existed and they need this because there is a certain safety in the danger.

chance doesn't have to slow down, when mike is there. he's always been a runner, jumping from one moment to the next because slowing down means really feeling and that scares him more than anything. he's haunted and he gets the bitter-tongued sort of angry when he's sad and scared and cornered like an animal, with that sickly-sweet bite of regret in the back of his throat. maybe he never should've gotten involved at all but now they're both running and he doesn't have to slow down, so tangled up it's hard to tell the start from the end these days.

and mike's guilt doesn't feel so heavy when he's with chance. he's got the world on his shoulders most days, the responsibility of hundreds of lifetimes and people he has to protect. chance is a breath of fresh air, the calm before the storm, even if they both know at the end of the day it won't ever work, not really. it's easier to be friends, and it wouldn't hurt so much when mike falls for edgar and chance almost wishes he was the one with ocean water in his lungs, but clever as they both are they were never smart about one another, chasing devastation like it might save them if they just hold on tight enough.

here's the og post i wrote about them on my other blog, for anyone thats curious!

I think another comedic potential for Porter being a freak at young new hire Jace is:

He clocks Jace as like 25/mid twenties or something but. Jace is actually like maybe a year or two older than Porter but never mentions it until Porter like. After they've finally hooked up or something is like. I've never fucked someone half my age didn't really think I'd be so into it and Jace (powering through the ego trip of being mistaken for a few decades younger because he has anxiety about aging like a human) is like. Porter. You know that's objectively not true right. You know I'm 50 right.

And Porter's just like. What.

god the half-elf aging strikes once again. 50 puts him at like, just about 30 in terms of a human lifespan iirc. jace voice you thought i was half your age and you still slept with me?? you fucking freak (said with immense lust)

and when theyre "in a relationship" (read: jace thinks its just sex + porter paying for his dinner sometimes, porter is in DEEP and refusing to admit it) porter starts being like "so we should think about getting hitched, right? neither of us are getting any younger" and jace is like "marriage?? i'm 52, what am i, a child bride??" he's NOT done fucking around just yet!! so what if his soulmate is in his life, he's still busy being a hoe!!

porter's like. trying to convince him to settle down and move in with him and talk about kids and all of these big life things and jace is like. who ARE you. i thought you understood this was casual. and porter (realizing suddenly that he means less to jace than jace does to him) is like what the fuck do you mean "casual"? ive never felt like this about anyone and thats your fault. casual, what does that even mean? do you have someone else on the side? who is he?

somehow this ends with jace getting strangled to death <- who said that

( this is the anon from the mistaken as a heat service alpha ask)

After all this goes down John is hired- he does have a decent salary and went to a good school on scholarship- and gale avoids him like the plague, red faced and silent.

When John tries to strike up a conversation Gale gives him a short answer or pawns him off to someone else.

It frustrates and embarrasses John, until finally Gale is in a big meeting across the city and missing an important file. Johns the only one whos available to bring it to him, which he does, and then they're supposed to ride back together. But traffic is at a standstill and they're trapped together in the car.

It comes out that Gale is horribly guilty about the whole situation, but can't stop thinking about their time together. He feels like he forced himself on an unsuspecting intern. None of this would have happened had he just asked the "heat service worker" if he was ready. But he's never clicked that way with anyone before

And John has been feeling insecure, like he was only hired because of the incident and now the man who hired him won't even look at him.

There's a lot of confession, heart to heart talking, and maybe some groping in the back of a company car.

Chefs kiss follow up nonny 🤌🧑‍🍳😘

Gale being horrified and a little turned on (which just makes his guilt even worse) every time he sees the 22 year old intern around the office and John having already mentally planned their wedding trying to strike up a conversation because they’re soulmates and they might have already fucked but they need to go on their first date. Except Gale avoids him at all costs and shoots down every joke or conversation starter John tries and he starts getting really down on himself.

He’s capable and over qualified for the internship but his dejected feelings got John all in his head about not being good enough and worried he only got hired because Gale was worried he might sue or something. Then they’re trapped in the car on the way back and it’s mad awkward because John’s not filling the silence (what’s the point) and Gale is stewing in his guilt too much to talk.

Eventually it eats away at Gale and they’re still not moving in traffic so he blurts out how sorry he is for forcing himself on John and taking savage and John is like, “??? I was living a fucking fantasy, I was ready to propose.” and Gale has to sit with that for several long minutes while they kind of side eye and reevaluate each other. It goes on for a little too long and John decides fuck it and pulls Gale into a kiss that’s way too indecent for the back of the car. (But have you seen them??? That driver is not complaining)

They finally go on that first date and John feels a little more comfortable proposing now 😜

[im-out-of-it]

PSA KIND OF A RANT BUT ALSO JUST A GENUINE QUESTION BUT LIKE DOES ANYONE FEEL WEIRDED OUT THAT THE SHADOWHUNTER SERIES ARE KIND OF TARGETED FOR TEENS (I mean, aren’t they though)

I know I hate and shit on the shadowhunter series (SORRY IT DESERVES TO BE CRITICIZED) and y’all, I’m seriously okay with having characters have trauma and being complex (seriously I’m all for it!!!! I love those fascinating characters) but make these people young adults or something. because this should not be targeted for teens!!!!! LET ME REPEAT MYSELF!!!! THIS SHOULD NOT BE TARGETED FOR TEENS!!!!! I just don’t like the message it sends. I think it’s probably the worst in TMI.

oh if you’re abused or have a shit childhood, it’s okay to put that on others and make it their problem. oh if you’re boyfriend is toxic and emotionally abusive, it’s okay because y’all are soulmates apparently and your whole identity is about him!!!!!!! I don’t mind insane fantasy romances!!!! but don’t target it towards teens!!!!! I still get amazed that this incest toxic fantasy is for teens???????

I don’t know, it’s just weird that a 50+ year old woman is writing about teens having sex. like does anyone feel Cordelia was extremely sexualized????? there’s just so much problematic shit CC writes. and once again, I don’t believe that fantasy books should be “real” “make sense” or whatever excuse people want to use to defend misrepresentation, incest, or heavy topics (abuse, trauma) that are written poorly.

I don’t care if clary and jace aren’t actually siblings- they thought they were and they’re both toxic to one another, also the fact that clary is there to serve jace’s happiness is wild. so like if you want an outrageous fantasy world, that’s absolutely valid but don’t have it targeted for teens. this is my whole beef with the shadowhunter series (and more let’s be obvious) is that teens pick up these books and maybe they don’t understand (doesn’t a brain fully develop at 25 or something?????) and thinks the type of stuff that is in this book is okay or to be admired.

maybe I think too much of this (I’m a very heavy and emotional thinker/person who feels A LOT) and maybe teens don’t actually think this???? maybe they can differentiate that this is fiction and not to be admired? but it’s just weird reading about teens and all the problematic stuff they do. I’m in the young adult ish category so it feels uncomfortable at times for me. make them young adults or something!!!!!!

I’m probably just thinking too much into this lmao but does anyone else feel this way about the books???? and before someone says OmG dOn’T rEaD iF yOu DoN’t LiKe It- the only reason I read these books was because of show Malec and I stupidly thought it was going to be the same masterpiece and I was sorely mistaken- and then I read about the insane stuff CC has gotten away with (plagiarism, how she treated people in the Harry otter fandom, how she treats her own fans when they criticize her, like I think she’s actually insane) and I just feel like this fantasy world and some of these characters deserved better treatment and should’ve been put in the hands of an author who actually cared more. I’m just tired of problematic authors and writers ruining shit for us

[modern-inheritance]

Heyyy there, how’s it going?

Do you think Izlanzadí could’ve had another mate between Evandar and the “current” events of the story? (both canon and MIC Izzy)

I’m curious about your personal take on that!!

Haaaaaai!!! Thanks for the ask!

So, I know for sure MIC Iz does not take another partner, for any length of time. I think that in both IC and MIC she and Evandar were soulmates, evidence further by their having Arya, which is said to be the symbol of a lifetime commitment among elves if I’m not mistaken.

MIC Izzy is quite nearly, and quite possibly, broken by Evandar’s death. She never completely heals from it. Finding someone else, even for a single night of comfort, feels like a betrayal to her, and she is also trying to manage the elves during their greatest decline in known history. It’s not something she really thinks about.

IC Izzy, though? I can’t say anything for certain. She was certainly erratic, and a lot of what we see of her feels like she is a very self serving person on the surface while caring deeply for the elves as her people. I’m not sure she would go for a distraction, but elves have different cultural and social values and outlooks, especially around partners, mates, and flings. I typically explain it to people outside the fandom as ‘As long as it’s of age and can and IS giving enthusiastic consent, elves really don’t care who you screw.’ And I think that IC Izzy wouldn’t be up for anything close to just a romantic relationship. Nor, I think, would anyone want to enter into one with her after they saw the lengths she went to when trying to manipulate Arya into abandoning the fight, an action that Arya was taking in service to her people and was held in extremely high regard from everyone else with their culture of self sacrifice for the elven nation and the dragons.

I’ve only just started truly unpacking Islanzadi in MIC. I just found her voice with the WIP I posted a while back where she sees and reacts to Arya’s scars. She’s complicated and difficult for me to write, and I’m still learning more about her character every time I write about/for her. In some ways, I can see her wanting for a relationship again, but her love for Evandar is always going to tether her to solitude in that regard. And I think, maybe after the war, she could possibly find a way around it, but again, she stops. Iz in MIC accepts the throne back from Arya after Arya is first Keeper, then queen for a little while (still not sure on this, I might swap back to just Keeper), a period of co-rule while Arya and Firnen are out dealing with MIC Dreamer stuff and transitioning to their Rider roles, and then finally back to full ruler. If she took a mate, it would definitely be a political maelstrom, and it’s going to take a lot of time for the elves to heal and regain strength from the dragons return before she’s ready to cause quite as much chaos as she used to.

Heh. Just realized a new thing. Arya does take after her mum in causing trouble, just that Arya causes trouble of the battlefield sabotage/violence/unexpected feral ferocity type, and Iz cause political shit shows that she sometimes likes to just start and maybe watch to see how it all plays out with popcorn and a soda.

Anyway. Thank you for the ask! Islanzadi is definitely a character I’ve taken a lot of time to get to know and she’s finally showing up in my head from time to time (and spraying the two dorks with the emergency horny spray with poorly disguised expressions of panic and occasionally getting into worse knockdown drag out fights than Arya does when Durza pokes his head in) so maybe we will see more of here in the future. This was a wonderful exercise for thinking more about her emotional and romantic ideas and ideals, something I don’t touch on at all really beyond her panic around Arya in general.

Cheers anon! Hope you have a good day!!

PS: just saying, if she were taller and maybe the age she was when she did Ghost Ship, Julianna Margulies when she has that wild curly hair and that amazing spicy snippy attitude I feel would have been a PERFECT Islanzadi.

[howtowearblackinthesummer]

I officially been watching too many true crime stories bcuz there’s this girl I went to school with, who imma call Kate. Kate was a sweet, innocent girl and we played sports together. Kate got with this guy Nate and they were together until we all graduated. Kate even lost her virginity to Nate. Kate was raised by a young single mom and they were SUPER close. Like I could see them going out and getting mistaken for sisters. They were also horse girls but I digress. Anyway, Kate and Nate got married and popped out some babies. They also moved all the way across the country to Nate’s family home. This isolated Kate, so eventually her mother moves across the country to be closer to Kate.

This is where the speculation takes place since everything is happening thousands of miles away from me and I do, surprisingly, have my own life.

Kate and Nate break up after about 4 years. Kate stops posting pictures of Nate, only the kids. She rarely posts at all and when she is in it she looks…unwell. Just after a breakup, single mom, in someone else’s family home with your single mom isn’t ideal, so her demeanor is expected. It just seemed a little off.

She stopped posting videos, if she does it’s always silent, and (this could just be me) but she’s had the same haircut and picture angles for the past 10 years. Her mom still does her own makeup like it’s peak 80s but I found it endearing at the time.

Fast forward to now and she’s randomly posted about marrying her soulmate. She’s never posted this guy before. She isn’t smiling in ANY of the photos. And her mom apparently wasn’t at the wedding. The only other person she ever posted pictures with besides her kids wasn’t there. It was VERY intimate (think 10 people max including the bride groom and Kates 2 kids).

Did I mention she continued to look unwell whenever she posted herself? Her hair is EXACTLY the same as it was 15 years ago. She has dark under eyes which could be from the kids but there is a void behind her eyes now. The sparkle from her youth is gone. Idk if new guy is a Mormon or something but even he was throwing me off a bit. I could be reading too deep into this and dramatizing someone else’s life instead of mine, but I have a feeling. I know what that darkness can look and feel like.

I don’t think she’s had any time to get to know herself. To be herself. To experiment or grow. As soon as she saw Nate she was obsessed. Always talking about him after practice. Hoping the boys team would join us for dinner after games so she could be near him. Then when she got with him it was still about him. He was a bit more experienced (he was my friends fuck buddy until Hurricane Kate came through lol) and seemed to have hobbies and a life of his own, but Kates life seemed to be deeply intertwined with Nate’s.

Long story short those wedding photos and all posts leading up to it look like a cry for help to me. I could be projecting as I haven’t spoken to this girl directly in years. But she doesn’t look okay. I hope I’m wrong and she doesn’t end up a true crime story. I wouldn’t blame her if she snapped though. If I can pick up signs from thousands of miles away, Is there anyone close to her that’s Able to intervene ?

[daddymothxxx]

🚢 idk if i actually ship them considering their past together but I'm curious

@ghostlyrps

do i ship our characters together?: yes | no | not yet but maybe soon

would i like to ship with you?: yes | maybe, i'm willing to try | no

type of relationship i could see: childhood or high school sweethearts | exes | engaged | married | long-term relationship | crushes | unrequited love | fling | long distance | online relationship | just dating | new relationship | toxic lovers | friends with benefits

tropes i'd enjoy writing for them: friends to lovers | enemies to lovers | exes to lovers | fake relationship / dating | forbidden love | grumpy and sunshine | star-crossed lovers | surprise pregnancy | second chance | soulmates | amnesia / mistaken identity | forced proximity | secret relationship | slow burn relationship

would i rather plot first or jump right in and see where it goes?: develop their relationship first | jump right in | something in between ( what specifically? )

what now?: let's plot something | send me shippy memes | i'll send you shippy memes | write me a random starter | i'll write you a random starter

anything else i want you to know about me / my character / my shipping habits: ( put whatever you want here )

i do think the reconnection would be complicated due to the history you gave them both, but, as i keep saying--long as there is chemistry, i'm pretty open and chill on this stuff.

though i know they'd have to work some things out and the like. i think anyone that does get shippy with Valentino does have to do some soul searching of themselves and Valentino as i portray him and decide what they're comfortable with

Middle Earth Elvish Profanity Headcanons

“By the Valar!”

Yes it IS weird to take someone’s name in vain when you’ve literally met them. They usually don’t do it.

However, the line between invoking and cursing is blurred, and it’s normal to invoke/pray to a specific Valar for a relevant reason (eg, cursing recalcitrant rosebushes in Yavanna’s name, invoking Tulkas when threatening to smack your sibling upside the head). Sometimes the relevance is that this particular elf is devoted to this particular Valar, and so will invoke them for things outside their domain (eg, Mahtan says “Aulë help me” whenever any of his grandchildren get in new trouble).

There’s also a spectrum of how explicitly you’re referencing a Vala. Saying something like, “stars above” or “for the love of the tides” is implicitly referencing Varda, Ulmo, etc, but it’s also plausibly just about the natural phenomena themselves. Stars especially - Elves were swearing by the stars and cursing by the darkness long before Oromë first found them, and many of the oldest still do.

The next level of intimacy/explicitness is to reference a specific Vala by title, eg, “Lord of the Skies preserve us”, “Smith curse this casting!”, “Dancer speed your feet, because when I catch you I will cut them off!” Something general like, “by the Valar” would also be on this level. 

(NB: while it was...not uncommon in Beleriand to curse by “the Chainer”, “Dark Hunter” or other names for Morgoth, it was regarded as more dire than to reference any other Vala by a similarly semi-personal title. You don’t want to risk drawing his attention.)

Highest, rarest level of cursing by the Valar is of course to name them directly. Especially to name them in Valarin. (No one really does that - though it’s not impossible that Fëanor did in his infamous Oath.) Generally believed (correctly?) to call the Vala’s attention, and thus only done with real intent, OR by those particularly favored by a particular Vala, who know even their frivolous call is welcome. (Eg, Círdan in the most tired voice possible, countless times over the Ages when faced with the latest Noldorin nonsense: “Lord Ulmo.”)

(NB: the Gwaith-y-Mirdain are infamous for expressions like, “[drops hammer on foot] Aulë’s fucking tits!” This is commonly mistaken for arrogance, but actually is because they picked it up from the dwarves of Moria. In general, dwarves are very respectful of their creator, but when you drop a hammer on your foot it HURTS, so they don’t hesitate to complain to him loudly and creatively.)

“Shit”

Cursing by messy bodily functions is always a strong option, though Elves tend to regard it as more juvenile than Men do

“Fuck!”

Elves curse by sex, but with different connotations than Men. Sex is (generally) indistinguishable from both the social contract of marriage and a literal spiritual bonding of fëa, cemented by an oath invoking Eru himself. Very sacred. There’s 1 word in Quenya, and in Sindarin, etc, which means all of this at once, though there’s also less-often-used words meaning individually the physical, social, and spiritual aspects.

“Fuck” is a very coarse way of referencing the physical act only, implicitly reducing the whole sacred thing to the basest part (the social part involving a great deal of community joy, joining of families, etc.)

Other sex-related cursing - “suck it!” “balls” - have connotations of...the things you might do for physical pleasure without diving fully into a fëa bond of marriage. Opinions on such acts range across time and cultures from “blasphemy” to “perfectly normal behavior for younger Elves, or older Elves who haven’t found their soulmate yet”, which affects how satisfyingly rebellious it feels to reference them as profanity.

Other Things to Take in Vain

It’s actually pretty common to swear by “Song”, “the Great Song”, etc. It’s swearing by the holy nature of all creation without bothering anyone specific.

Relatedly, “Arda Marred” is a common curse for petty things, like stubbed toe levels of petty. Connotation: The world is unfair and YES I’m whining about it.

It was common to swear by the Trees in when they were lit, either individually or “the Trees”, but that stopped abruptly in grief once they were destroyed. Swearing by the sun and moon never caught on, despite conscious attempts.

Swearing by individual Maiar is much less common than by individual Valar, but: while for most Elves, invoking “the Queen” in a profanity way means Varda, for Iathrim it usually means Melian.

“Flame Imperishable”...okay, I’m not saying the supporters of the House of Fëanor were a cult, I’m NOT. But it was a...genuinely minor trend, in Formenos, to replace the names/references to the Valar, in curses, with Fëanor’s name - like, a handful of people were doing this, okay? Two dozen at most. As an active political statement. 

But then Everything Happened, including Fëanor dying, and it snowballed (fireballed)...rather fast. The Valar had abandoned them but you know who was plausibly still watching over them as a houseless spirit? Fëanáro! (That was superstition, everyone knew it was superstition. But it was a kind of a comforting one, and anyway, fuck the Valar.)

But all Fëanor’s sons were (varying degrees of) Uncomfortable with both the idea of their father’s unquiet ghost and the idea of venerating their father to minor deitihood, so the general Fëanorian host started using the euphemism “Flame Imperishable.” Which was already something to take in vain, and rarely done so, because it was so very holy a concept! (Arguably it was even more Uncomfortable for Fëanor’s sons than equating their father to “mere” minor deitihood, but at least now there was plausible deniability what people were swearing by.) So this is a win/win, in terms of profaning that which has forsaken and Doomed them! Many Sindar probably picked it up without realizing that it was about anything but the Flame of Creation at all.

But if you know, then you know. And it became so common in East Beleriand that many people forgot the contentiousness of its origin and kept using “Flame Imperishable” as a casual curse phrase after their re-embodiment in Valinor.

...speaking of Fëanor: the Oath! References to the Oath were common curses in East Beleriand and perhaps even the rest of Beleriand. “Elda, Maia and Aftercomer” as an expression of surprise, “Everlasting Darkness” as a curse, etc. In later days, as opinions of the Oath grew darker, “Oath take you.”

References to the Doom were used similarly.

Swearing by the Silmarils was also common throughout the First Age and well into the Second, either as objects of veneration or incredible cursedness.

Swearing by Gil-Estel was quickly popular and never went out of fashion. At first people tried to avoid doing it where Elrond or Elros could hear, including in Númenor, and indeed Elros never did join in, though he didn’t really mind others doing it. At some point in the early-mid Second Age (a few centuries after Elros’s death), Elrond stopped trying to avoid letting it slip into his speech and instead started pulling the power move of just saying “Father” in contexts where anyone else would be swearing by the Star. It’s very analogous to people particularly beloved of a specific Vala casually naming them in oaths. All his children imitate this, “Grandfather”, and Celebrian even picks it up sometimes (”Father-in-law”).

I can't escape undertale for 5 mcfuckin minutes dude :sob: /nm /lh

Yandere Fell Pap. You know what to do, old friend...

MCPHUCKING SAME-I THOUGHT I WAS OVER NIGHTMARE SANS-I WAS CLEARLY MISTAKEN-)

B a s t a r d m a n . You can not change my mind./j

Prepare yourself because he can get quite aggressive when he doesn't get his way, but on the plus side if it wasn't your fault he won't touch you so at least there's that?

He knew he had to have you the moment he laid eyes on you. He fully believes that the two of you are soulmates. I mean why else would he feel such a strong attraction to you so quickly? There can't be a better explanation and even if someone does give him one he refuse to listen.

Fell paps is incredibly possessive. You're not to leave his side without his permission and he usually has his brother watch you when he can't. On the very rare occasion that you are left alone you are usually locked in his room.

Papyrus is very picky when it comes to who you talk with and if he sees you speaking with anyone that he views as competition he manipulate you into believing that they're just trying to trick you. Most of the time the only person you're allowed to talk to is Sans.

He really likes to carry you around. It's his version of both flirting and showing you that if you want to escape he's going to give you one hell of a hard time.

If you ever do try to escape he is furious. What the hell do you think you're doing trying to run away from him? Do you have a death wish because it's really seeming to look like it...

He shows absolutely no mercy when it comes to punishments no matter the circumstances. Once he decides to do something it doesn't matter how much you scream, cry, etc. It's your fault that you're in this situation anyways right? If you would have just listened to him like a good little pet that would have never happened.

After Papyrus is finished with whatever punishment he gave you he acts as though nothing had happened and will probably gaslight you into doing the same.

If you ever actually do manage to escape just know that he won't rest until he captures you. Once he gets his hands on you it's over. He's going to make your life as miserable as his was after you left him all alone.

If you're attempts to escape become too frequent he'll tie you to the bed and refuse to untie unless absolutely for a few weeks as a warning of what will happen if you keep it up.

He's contemplated taking you somewhere and hiding you where no one would be able to find you many times, but ultimately decided that he liked others knowing that you were his.

He regularly shows you off to the rest of the underground. That's right, (Y/N) belongs to him and only him. None of you pathetic creatures are worthy of his lover.

One and maybe the only good thing about him obsessing over you is that anyone who dares to do much as send a dirty look in your direction will have to answer to him. Anyone who may have hurt you in the past is totally phucked over as well.

I HAVE RETURNED FROM THE DEAD. DID YA MISS ME??)

Also sorry this took so damn long to get out-I finally got out of my writing block-)

Xiao: Fainting HCS

FUCK. I FORGOT TO POST THIS EARLIER. AHHHH. I HAVE WORK IN LIKE 2 MINUTES SO I’LL BE BACK TO REPLY TO EVERYONE. 

Hey anon! So sorry it took me forever to finish writing this but good luck if you’re planning on pulling Xiao. I really wanted to finish writing this fic as an offering to the gacha gods that c1 xiao wants to bless me (even tho that’s not gonna happen). But good luck to everyone rolling today^^.

Xiao: Fainting HCS

Instant panic mode engaged. If you’ve ever doubted his adepti power of swiftness you’re about to be mistaken. He’s noticed that you seem a bit out of it but brushed it off as you being tired from your recent journey. If there was anything bothering you, you would tell him. But as he turned around to greet you back, it seems like time is slowing down for him. He sees how your eyes glazed over and become unfocused. The muscles in your body snap and you drop to the ground. He can feel his blood run cold as past memories that have been waiting to jump at him suddenly claw at him but he doesn’t even register them. He’s already running towards you.

He’s already caught you in his arms before you can even meet the wooden floor. His brain is racing as he quickly checks your pulse to make sure you didn’t suffer from a heart attack or a curse. He makes a quick search over your body to check for any injuries, he can already feel the red hot iron of anger fill his system at the thought of someone trying to take advantage of you or threaten you. He’s usually logical in these types of situations, even the death of Rex Lapis didn’t shock him this much, but he’s been battling his conflicting feelings ever since he met you. But now that he’s finally accepted you and himself, he wouldn’t know what to do if anything happened to you. His mind flashes to Guizhong before he shakes away the thought.

It doesn’t occur to him that you might be sick as he tries to shake you awake. Whatever teachings Guizhong and Morax have taught him fly out the window as he holds you so close to his chest, he’s pretty sure his grip on you is bruising. He knew mortal souls weren’t as strong as adepti and staying around one might cause sickness or even worse- death. Was this his fault? He can feel the drop in his stomach as he tries to reign in his emotions and powers, not here.

Verr almost screams when Xiao breaks the wooden ceilings and lands in front of her. She’s scared that there was a monster outbreak or something was wrong with Xiao before she notices your passed out form in his arms. As much as she likes to joke around and thinks your relationship with Xiao is cute, she knows that if anything came to seriously harm you she wouldn’t able to calm Xiao before he goes on a rampage. You mean so much to him and he hasn’t opened his heart to anyone except you.

She can tell he’s nearly past his breaking point as he looks at her with dilated eyes as he asks, no commands, her to help you. It’s such whiplash to her. Xiao’s always been polite and reserved that she almost forgets he used to be a demon slaying Yaksha, but this isn’t the time for her to worry about that. She quickly leads him to the backroom since there’s no way Xiao wouldn’t bite any hand that comes near you. Bless Verr’s heart since this isn’t the first time she’s had to handle Xiao’s outbreaks that she manages to save face and contact a doctor that was staying at the inn to look at you. She does feel a bit bad for the doctor who looks like he’s about to piss himself in fear as Xiao growls and watches the doctors every move with piercing yellow eyes.

Xiao is still wary when the doctor and Verr try to calm him down and examine you more closely, always flinching back whenever their hands get too close to you, letting out a dangerous hiss whenever there’s the slightest twitch of discomfort in your face when the doctor feels your heated forehead. As soon as the doctor concludes that you’ve been sick for the past few days and your body just needs to heal itself and recharge, the tension on Xiao’s shoulder loosens and the suffocating aura that’s been filling the room slowly filters out. Verr can’t help but sigh in relief but can’t bring herself to scold Xiao for breaking the inns roof as she watches him look over your form with worried eyes as he softly nudges your cheek. He’s still holding you but his grip has loosen slightly as he rests his forehead against yours. He breathes a sigh of relief as he rubs small circles in your hand. Xiao’s never been the most affectionate or shown to be the most caring but you’ve seriously scared him. She quietly leaves him be and closes the door as she begins to prepare to fix the damages.

Xiao never leaves your side as he waits for you to wake up. He can’t help but berate himself for not confronting you. The doctor said you would be fine but he can’t but imagine your body falling in a more violent scene. He quickly shakes those thoughts away as he paces around the room, sits besides you, then goes back to pacing. Usually he would go on a walk or beat his aggression out but he doesn’t want to leave you alone should you awake early.

Xiao doesn’t ramble about his day while you’re asleep, instead he just observes your features and the small movements you make to remind him that you’re okay. How your chest moves up and down as you breath or how your eyes sometimes scrunch in sleep. You’ve made him almost trip when you did it the first time since he thought you were waking up. He can’t help but think back to his fellow Yaksha’s and what they would say if they saw the way he was acting now.

Since his panic attack has mostly subsided he’s found himself growing more curious. He’s still worried about you but he’s managed to reason with himself that you’re okay, just sick which he’s going to scold you a bit for when you awake, so he softly brushes his fingers across your face. Before snatching his hand away in embarrassment. What the hell is he doing? Guizhong would slap him sideways if she saw him now. He huffs at himself as he deflates a little and rests his head on the bed beside your head. He’s patient. He will wait when your ready to wake up.

When you suddenly gain consciousness, it feels as if the entire world is weighing you down. You slowly blink open your eyes to see a worried Xiao hovering over you, his hands awkwardly in the air since he’s not sure if it’s okay to touch you.

“How are you feeling?” Xiao asks as his eyes dart all over the place before resting on your face. You’re still a bit out of it but you can tell he must have been really worried. You try to give him a small smile but with how scuffy you feel you can bet it’s not a pretty picture.

“Like I got slammed with one of Zhongli’s meteors,” you tried to laughed before coughing as Xiao quickly pressed a cup of water to your lips. Slowly letting you drink and calm down. 

“If you have time to make jokes then you’re alright” Xiao sighs before his features change slightly. His eyes glaze over in concern as a small frown appears. He really does look like a kicked kitten as he slumps over as the stress finally lifts as he feels your hand softly run through his hair.

“Sorry,” you say, he must have been so stressed out while you were passed out for him to look so exhausted. He simply nudges into your hand before turning his face to kiss your palm,

“There’s no need for apologies. I’m...just glad you’re okay,” Xiao mumbles before he’s back to pressing his head into your stomach. You can’t help but smile delicately as you reach over and bring Xiao up with you until he’s lying over you as you hug him gently. There’s a bit of shuffling before you’re able to spoon him as he let’s himself relax after the two day panic attack he just went through.

---

When you’ve fully recovered Xiao seems to hover around you a bit more. Well not a bit, a lot more, but no one has the heart to tell him that. It’s actually kind of adorable seeing the aloof and reserved adepti seem to follow you around like a loss duckling. Making sure you’re okay and you’re not overworking yourself. He still keeps his tough demeanor but you seriously gave him a big scare.

When Zhongli and Childe come over for their weekly visits of tea, they were aware that Xiao had locked himself in a room to watch over you and anyone that even stepped near the door would be skewered with a spear - and Verr would make them pay for the damages (Zhongli) and whatever consequences Xiao saw fit (Childe) - but they are happy to see you’re okay. You all fall back into your usual rhythm of conversation or Childe trying to get a rise out of Xiao while you and Zhongli talk about how lovely the weather’s been.

Zhongli let’s you in on some details that Xiao or Verr never mentioned while Childe and Xiao are fighting about who knows what. How Xiao wouldn’t leave your side or that he resembled a kicked kitten as he nudged your hand when he thought no one was looking. He offers you some medicine herbs to help with exhaustion and to take care of yourself. Likewise, to give Xiao some pain medication on his behalf. You’re one of the few good things in Xiao’s life and he doesn’t want anything bad happening to you.

---

Hmm. I didn’t mean to but I totally believe in the dad zhongli train and I think Zhongli basically just gave you his blessing? Maybe I’m thinking too hard on this haha.

Maybe this is better? Trying to figure out writing styles are hard. Either way, I’m never gonna end up kicking my paragraph HCS habit haha. If you couldn’t tell, I really like feral protective but lowkey vulnerable types (coughrazorcough). Xiao is so OOC at this point I don’t even know how to fix it. Please come home Xiao. 

(Edit: FUCK YEAH HE CAME HOME WITH DILUC. WE 90ED THIS BITCH AND IM ABOUT TO MAX HIS TALENTS. ILL SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL (since people have been asking) WHEN I GET BACK FROM WORK)

LONG PHILOSOPHICAL RANT/ HIGH THOUGHT TRAIN INCOMING!!!!

this is a message i sent to one of my platonic soulmates, inspired by my soul’s perfect (very romantic) match, myah.

“when i say i am currently high as nuts on an edible but my brain is doing the philosophical, spiritual, people are energy thought process thing rn, i was like i need to text kem my high thoughts because you understand my soul like almost no other. (shoutout myah for being the only one who gets my soul more).

i may blow your phone up, i apologize in advance, but let me say, i am so grateful that our souls crossed paths. i have never encountered someone who i felt so mirrored by on a soul deep level. we understand and process things differently because of our life experiences, but our souls reflect the same brightness. your soul LONGS to reach out and touch other souls. you have what I have, the thing I call “the gift of good thoughts”. our brains may be chaotic, but our first thought is almost always something appreciative or kind, joyful, thoughtful, almost ALWAYSSSS something good. our souls long to touch other souls, that is why we love to dance and we love music, and we love to be there for our friends, and we love to learn, to grow, to speak to people, and to have people listen. it is not a desire to be the center of attention, or to overshadow anyone elses light, it’s the opposite. we love to experience other souls, and we love to make them burn brighter. so i wanted to say thank you, for always making my soul feel like it was encouraged to grow and to shine. thank you for letting me stoke your souls flame. thank you for also sharing your thoughts with my mind because i learn so much and am so encouraged and complemented by the way your mind works. anyway, thats the intro LOL.

i have been on facetime w myah and have been rambling about my high thoughts, including the above mentioned soul brightness theme. I have thoroughly enjoyed the journey my mind has taken tonight, and so I will try to make this as intelligible and ingestible as i can, but please do keep in mind im toasted, roasted, and my mind has coasted.

okay one- everything started as stardust. i watched a science show about it, i dont know all the details and specifics (too high to remember at least). if im not mistaken though, the first atoms were hydrogen, and hydrogen atoms found other atoms, created molecules, carbon+oxygen+hydrogen is the foundation of all life okay. so all of those tiny little building blocks of everything in our known universe have some kind of energy, technically measured in joules but whatever LMAO. okay it took us thousands of years to come far enough to get an idea of what an atom looked like, but we could measure that energy in how it interacted with different energy, or different building blocks. okay so if we think about the foundation of life as substance and its natural possession of energy, i go to my next point

2- aforementioned point———souls are energy. i dont think we have the capability to measure the energy of souls, but in the experience of identifying with someone’s soul, you can feel and understand the energy. i don’t think that our souls energy is solely based on its interactions with other souls, but I do think that plays a big part. i also think that a souls energy is somewhat tied to their material substance the same way that an atom is not the physical presence of energy, but it possesses its own experience of energy. while that idea does play into what exactly a soul’s substance is, i dont think that’s discoverable yet scientifically; however, i do think we are able to recognize and comprehend our souls experience of energy. when our souls are low energy i feel like the light is dimmer or the amount of energy lowers; but when the energy and that light is encouraged to grow??? the light gets brighter, the soul shines, and the soul develops and increases its energy. that increase of energy i think is when we experience that encouragement, that safety and trust, and we learn to enjoy the stoking of the energy, and we learn to encourage our growth ourselves as well. which leads me to my next point…..

three - souls interacting. I think that certain souls may be from the same stardust, or their energy may have learned to enjoy the encouragement of the self enough to where their soul longs to touch other souls. i think that this energy sometimes finds its equal, or its perfect complement, and this other soul naturally encourages the growth and brightness of that other soul (and vice versa). i think that you are one of those complements for me, and i do think you are my platonic soulmate. my soul loves yours and feels encouraged by yours, and my soul loves to encourage yours to shine as bright as can be. i also think that myah is my perfect romantic/soulmate complement because I feel like our energy is so drawn to each others (somehow on this massive rock), and my soul naturally wants to encourage hers to shine, and her soul just wants to let mine know that it’s beautiful to be bright, and that neither of our souls were intended to be dim, so we are just learning how to shine brighter just by being around each other.

okay im getting high sleepy so maybe will pick up at a different date, but long story short, i feel like because my soul has finally found what its been searching for, my mind and soul is free to search for knowledge, joy, and growth in a way that i cannot even fathom being random chance. i feel so free, i feel like i can finally spend time enjoying exploring more of the meaning of life and asking questions from my soul because my soul doesn’t feel lonely anymore. it found its complement. the yin to its yang if u will.

anyway, elated, faded, chemically aided casey ramble is concluding for the night, i adore you, i am grateful for you more than you could understand, and thank you for being someone i felt like i could ramble about these things to.”

Hoping someone else might find some clarity from my silly high thoughts.

I also want to acknowledge that I don’t think my mind would have ventured that far into the complexities of the universe and the soul if I didn’t feel like my soul was so seen and understood by myah. Thank you baby, I love you.

“A dance?”:Choi San

I swirled around the fancy wine in the fancier glass. Goodness, who in the king's name came up with ballroom dances?

I huffed as I watched the people in their glamourous gowns and drapes waltz across the floor. It was pretty to see, but it was bothersome to participate.

I was on my 3rd glass, and I was starting to get tipsy. Well, I wasn’t really surprised. After all, I could not hold my liquor.

“My lady?” Seonghwa sighs, disappointment shining in his eyes.

“Yes, my dear?” I purred, before laughing at myself.

“Did you hear that?! Seonghwa, I just purred” I giggled. He chuckled at my tipsy self, before becoming the mother he was.

“Yes my lady, I heard you. The young master mentioned that you mustn’t drink. Yet you found your way to the champagne.” He chastised.

“What can I say?” I sassed. “Liquor is my soulmate.”

“And in a while it will be your greatest foe. The young master has set a meeting with your soon to be fiancé, Lee Know, Prince of the Strays Kingdom.”

I snorted. “Whatever, I’m sure he’s ugly”

He sighed. I could feel his disappointment radiating in waves. There’s nothing more amusing than teasing your caretaker.

“I can assure you. He is not ugly, my lady.”

“Yeah?” I raised an eyebrow. Swirling the glass in my fingers. I watched as the sparkling liquid splashed against the glass. “And how can you assure that?”

“He’s looking right at you, My lady. To your left.”

Discreetly, I averted my eyes to check for myself. Slicked back hair, a cute face and sharp jawline. Seonghwa was right, he was staring right at me.

He wore a dark brown coat over his drapes, a white lace cuff and shiny boots. He had a tie hanging around his neck, by lord. He looked devilishly handsome.

He smiled at me politely, pearly whites showing. I smiled back, impressed at his manners. He brought up his glass a little as a toast and I did too, sipping the champagne together and we held eye contact for a moment.

He slyly winked in my direction, and I giggled. “Agreed. He is eye-candy.” I turned towards Seonghwa who seemed very pleased with my comment.

“I am glad you think so. Now my lady, why don’t you help boost our small family name by greeting him?” He gestured toward Lee Know.

I sighed. “He seems like a nice man. But you're highly mistaken if you think I’ll be marrying him.”

He opened his mouth to retort but I didn’t give him a chance to. “You know don’t you?”

“K-know what my lady?” He fumbled on his words. Something he does only when lying.

“You know about San. And I’m sure Older Brother knows too. Isn’t that why you want me to get married?”

He sucked in a breath. I laughed dryly. “Of course, why do I have to question you, when I already know the answer.”

I handed him my glass. “I’ll be with him if you need me. Don’t bother trying to persuade me.”

I turned away from Seonghwa and walked towards the garden gates, at the back of the ballroom. A lone guard stood, preventing anyone entry. I placed myself right in front of him.

“Hello darling,” I grinned.

He had his jaw clenched. “Mistress, Sir hasn’t given you permission to enter the garden. Please return to the ballroom at once.”

I frowned. “Would it really kill you to relax?”

“It would kill me and you. Figuratively and literally.”

I huffed and crossed my arms over my chest. “Please, you’re begging for a dance with me. Aren’t you?”

He avoided all eye contact with me. His stone hard eyes were glaring at the wall opposite to us. His jaw was still clenched, and his grip on his sword tightened.

I frowned, feeling saddened. Until he spoke up. “Why don’t you go spend time with the young prince of the Strays kingdom? After all, you’re going to be marrying him in a few weeks time.”

I snapped my head up to meet his eyes, and he still avoided them. I smirked. “Are you jealous?”

He scoffed. “Never.”

“Fair enough,” I sighed dramatically. “Might just have to fulfill my wish for a dance with Lee Know.” I turned away from him but his hand grasped mine. Pulling me with force, he twirled me around and my hands met with his chest.

He kept his hands on my waist. “You’re not to be within a 5 meter radius of him.”

I played with the fancy chains and medals that littered his coat. “Is that so?”

“Yes. Orders from your beloved.”

I smiled at him sheepishly. I stood straight, smoothening the wrinkles in my gown before beaming at him. “Dance with me”

“A dance?” He looked at me and tilted his head. Confusion overtaking his features.

“Yes, knucklehead.” I said, pulling his hand. “Come dance with me.”

“You know we can’t do that princess, not with all those people watching. You know what’ll happen if-”

I brought my finger to his lips. “Shh, who said anything about dancing in the ballroom?” _________________________________________

I dragged him out the gates to the palace garden. The palace garden was a prestigious place, with flowers from all around the world. It’s scent and beauty never failed to seize me.

I ran ahead, pulling san behind me and laughed childishly. He let out a few laughs too. “Y/n you’re so cute”

“Only for you, love” I smiled.

I pulled him towards the windows. We were right outside the ballroom and on the opposite side of the window, the orchestra was playing music. Our windows were stained glass and very translucent, I doubted that anyone could recognise us.

He smiled at me nervously. He bowed and held his hand out, looking in my eyes he asked, “May I have this dance, my love?”

I curtsied in front of him, and placed my hand in his. “Yes, you may.”

And so we did. We danced on the grass, bare feet under moonlight. The soft chatter of the people inside was completely drowned out as I danced with him. The music overflowed my senses, he picked me up and twirled me around. But no matter what he did, we always met in the centre, swaying from side to side.

As the music slowed down, our bodies did too. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he wrapped his around my waist. “Are you really going to marry him?”

I could sense the nervousness in his voice and I smiled. I brought my hand up to cup his face, glancing up at him I smiled gently. “Never. You’re the one I love, and I’m not going to marry someone I don’t.”

He let out a shaky breath, his grip tightening on my waist. “But, but what if you’re forced to?” He looked up at me, his eyes watering. “What if you have to marry him and, and then you’ll fall in love and you probably leave me and,”

A sob racked his chest as a lone tear fell on his cheek. His head fell on my shoulder and his shoulders shook with each sob he let out.

My heart broke seeing him. Oh, my love.

“Hey,” I grasped his face in my hands and wiped his tears with my thumb. I gazed into his teary eyes, “No matter what, I will always stay with you. I will deny that marriage over and over. And I’m sure older brother will understand, hopefully. No matter what, I won’t let him break us apart.”

I chuckled, bringing him closer so that our foreheads touched. “You’re stuck with me. And the only thing you’ll guard is my heart.”

He let out an airy laugh. And pressed his lips against mine. “I love you, y/n”

“I love you too”

[losersclublol]

kinda weird and odly specific (fem) stozier bff head cannons !!!

stan has only ever let her bare feet out around richie

they quote the twins from like that one snl sketch. wait lemme specify. this one and they quote all the john mulany ones. like “we’re so close we finish eachother..” “off”. “his bootys real” “but my personality is fake”

they do those smule duets together and it’s a hot fucking mess but kinda good???

stupid. fucking. tiktoks.

so many

richie insists that they only do like one but they’re both on a friendship high and end up making like 20 and they’re all messy yet funny and good

a few of them blew up

cause why wouldn’t they. like you take richie, an actual comedian, and stan, an actual comedian who just won’t get paid for it. and you get comedic genius with the right amount of fruityness

ew no but matching pjs at sleepovers omg

sleepovers would either be like “we need sleep but you’re at my house” or “almost breaking something whilst having an amazing time and oh wow how did that get in your hair”

stan does richies hair at least once a month and she keeps telling richie to just do her hair like this and it’ll look this good all the time and richie keeps saying she will but noooooooo she doesn’t cause she’s a little dirt girl who has to look messy

they make the weirdest but best snacks together (i used to dip cabbage in lemonade, it was bomb)

they make little cooking videos/vlogs but it’s just stan looking tired and doing a good job, richie getting lost and confused and both of them losing everything they put down

don't think this will be a full fic anytime soon, but i've been having blakeTM thoughts for some reason recently , so here's a bunch of headcanons about the background of him and my listener!OC's relationship

Blake’s parents passed when he was a child, and he was sent to the suburbs of Dahlia to live with his grandparents. They tried their best to make him feel comfortable and welcome, but he never felt like it was enough. He’s thought more than he’d like to admit about how his life would have turned out if his parents were still with him. 

In third grade, Kai stood up for Blake against some kids who were bullying him, and he’s admired them ever since. He’s always idolized them as his hero who saved him when he was at his lowest, so now he does everything in his power to be there for them in return.

After becoming friends, Blake would practically live at Kai’s house. Their parents didn’t mind because they liked him and saw him as a mild-mannered and respectful boy.

Blake has developed an unhealthy attachment to Kai that he’s mistaken for love. If soulmates really existed, he had no doubt that Kai was his person. He would do anything and everything to protect them, and those are the only times he’s ever gotten scary or violent. Kai has yet to see this side of him. He doesn’t like being in that headspace, and he knows it would scare them if they ever knew the lengths he went to behind their back. (Stalking them to make sure they’re safe walking home, threatening anyone he saw as a threat to their safety and well-being, scaring away people he didn’t see as good enough for Kai, etc.) As they grew up, his admiration turned into something deeper and more toxic.

Kai’s always been somewhat of a social butterfly, definitely outgoing and extroverted. Blake simply watched on the sidelines as they dated and made friends all through middle and high school. Kai always just assumed he had other friends to hang out with when they weren’t around, but that wasn’t the case. They were his only friend (and now the object of his affections). He thought about them all the time.

The two of them had experienced the development of their powers together, and pinky-promised that when they finished high school they would both enroll at D.A.M.N and get an apartment together.

Their big fight came one night when Kai told him they changed their mind. They had just gotten a well-paying manager position at a skate shop downtown and wanted to spend some time focusing on their music before they considered going to the academy. Blake hadn’t thought this would happen, so he didn’t have a plan B. What was he going to do if they separated, and they started growing apart? He couldn’t imagine life without them. As they talked about a future where they didn’t need him, he could feel them slipping through his fingers. So, he clung on even more. He knew he looked pathetic, but he begged them to come with him, and it only opened their eyes more to his clingy behavior. The night ended with Kai telling him that maybe they did actually need time away from each other. Frustrated, angry, and in tears, Blake stormed out of their room, down the stairs, and slammed the door to their house behind him.

He did end up moving to Dahlia to attend D.A.M.N, but the distance didn’t stop him from growing bitter at Kai. A Close Knit recruiter on campus caught him in his emotionally vulnerable state and invited him to a general meeting, which pushed him further down the rabbit hole. Looking for anything and everything to distract him from his lingering feelings about his best friend, he was sucked in fast. He even stopped attending classes to get more involved in the organization. It all felt so trivial when he now had a higher purpose to fulfill. As he rose up the ranks and learned more about their work, he became more convinced that empowered humans were in danger. Eventually he reached back out to Kai, partly because Close Knit needed all the help it could get, but also partly because his toxic overprotective tendencies had resurfaced now knowing that the one person who had ever truly seen him and cared for him could be hurt.

in order: blake, kai
