also halfway through i noticed that the dates were SUPER inconsistent for some reason but august 5th 2024 is when things were supposed to be going on

[diwtara]

Sanjis love life can be summed up as a series of one night stands.

Thats never the way he wanted it to be though

He dreams of love, of a real connection, of building a home.

But it seems everytime he finds someone, all they want to do is fall into bed with him, then ghost.

He would almost convince himself that hes just bad at sex, but sometimes one of his ex's will text him, make it clear theyre not looking for anything serious just another 'fun night'.

So hes not a bad lover, just unlovable

He hates himself for everytime he agrees to meet back up with one of them. Eventually, when being seen as no more than a warm body begins to wear him down, when it begins to hurt to much to continue on, he will block that persons number, vow not to fall back into such a self destructive pattern.

Until he does.

Over and over.

When he meets Luffy and his friends, well, its not the type of love Sanji has always been searching for, but with them theres a connection and its real.

And from Luffy, Sanji meets Zoro. Their friendship may be unusual, but its there. Its there with their shared looks of exasperation at Luffys antics, its there through their bickering, its there in their shared silences.

Until Zoro goes and asks him out.

Sanji is pre-emptively hurt by this. He thought they got along -in their own unique way- but now he knows Zoros just going to be another person to take a tumble in his sheets, then forget about Sanji entirely. Maybe take all their other friends with him when he leaves.

Still, Sanji says yes. As painful as it will end, as it always ends, Sanji knows he wont ever get what he longs for if he doesnt grasp at any chance hes shown.

They go on a few dates. Zoro is not the most romantic person by any standard. But they have fun, they talk, they get lost, they get to know each other.

Its the fourth or fifth date when after walking Sanji home Zoro says goodnight, makes a face, darts in to smush their lips together, says 'goodnight' again and takes off at a brisk pace. It leaves Sanji standing stunned for a good minute. When he wraps his head around their first kiss he cant help but laugh fondly over how adorable and awkward Zoro can apparently be.

Its a few more dates after that when Sanji starts to get antsy. Zoro has never pushed for more, theyve only shared a few chaste kisses, but Sanji knows. He knows either he sleeps with Zoro and he loses him. Or he doesnt sleep with him, Zoro gets bored and Sanji loses him.

So after their next date Sanji brings him home. Bring Zoro to his room.

Its intense.

Zoro watches him, studies what Sanji likes. Makes himself vulnerable too.

Sanji has never had sex like it before, cant imagine having an experience like it with anyone else.

And in the morning Zoros still there. Snoring away beside him.

Sanji knows that that doesnt have to mean anything.

He cooks breakfast and Zoro wanders into the kitchen half asleep. But Sanji knows, once Zoro has some food, once hes a little more awake, the man will leave.

But he doesnt.

They spend half the day together, Sanji spending it in a confused daze.

They go out on more dates.

Zoro holds his hand in public.

Presses a kiss to Sanjis temple and only waves off their friends teasing when he does.

Its the morning after the third time they spend a night together when Sanji finally breaks down.

The early morning light is soft through his curtains. Zoro is snoring spread out beside him, and Sanji, sitting up, starring at him, bursts into tears.

Zoro wakes up confused, tries to ask whats wrong, but Sanji is sobbing too hard to explain. Not that Sanji would even know what to say.

So Zoro wraps his arms around him, pulls Sanji in close. Rubs soothing circles on his back and tells him "I've got you. I've got you."

And thats when it hits him.

Thats when Sanji knows; Zoros planning on staying

I wanna give him a blanket. Can it maybe just materialize outta nowhere?

not to be a bitch but like. i can never take "ohhhh kon is soOOoOoo sad about tim/ber uwaahhhh he's in love with tim but it's unrequited waaahhhh" angst seriously because like... i get it, the only thing you know about kon is that he's the other half of a popular m/m tim ship, but uh. rebirth kon is living an existential fucking nightmare. i think he's got way bigger fish to fry than whether the tim who only kind of remembers him at all is dating some other guy lmao

Mortal Kombat 1 Behind the Scenes AU: The Dating Issues, p. 3

Author’s note: I really like to imagine Bi-Han is the last person who would want to know any details from people's romantic & sexual life but also like, the one who knows a lot more than he should. I guess the AU's version of him likes to collect other people's secrets too 🤣 On serious note, it shows that  Kuai Liang can and will come to his older brother when dealing with personal problems (even if Bi-Han doesn't want get involved). Which is why Sub-Zero is fully aware that Kuai Liang and Cyrax's brother are close not because they fell in love with each other, but because they are in the same situation - their chance to be with people they actually love are very slim. I guess those two are friends with benefits who bonded over a common struggle, because misery loves company and both are very miserable indeed.

Kuai Liang is in love with Harumi for years, but she is a heiress to the Shirai Clan, so of course her parents won't see him as a good material for boyfriend/husband. He lives far away from Japan and may be killed at any time due to his Lin Kuei duties. He does not even officially exist in the "normal" modern world. There is little Scorpion can do about it, and he knows way too well that for him - and Harumi - duty to clan/family comes before personal feelings. There is a realistic part of him that has already accepted he may never be with Harumi - but give him a chance and he will go to great lengths to just see her again... like begging Bi-Han to cheat on Lin Kuei clan's rules by fake dating anyone for a day.

With Cyrax's brother (male Cyrax) the situation comes down to the fact that he likes Sektor's brother (male Sektor) but the man is an emotionally withdrawn person and one really really bad at getting the clue and/or not interested in a romantic relationship. They like each other, but it is hard for them to communicate - maybe both want different things or there are other issues that get in the way? Who knows?

Well, Bi-Han may know, as he and Sektor's brothers are very similar introverts and good pals but he ain't here to get dragged into another emotional mess. Let him be at peace, please. 

One way or another, if “male Cyrax” was there, he would personally ask Harumi to do him a favor and date Kuai Liang even if just for a day XD

Also, what female Cyrax described sounds more like cheating, but A) I did not want turn the "dating problems" into much worse issue than breaking up to not insult Kuai Liang's character and B) Cyrax assuming Scorpion lost interest in her brother instead of cheating on him kinda shows that despite all the conflict, she still doesn't consider Kuai the worst scum. Just a selfish bastard who ass should be kicked.

absolutely nothing more humbling than finding a man born in 2001 attractive. I feel revolting

[yoonstudios]

oh my fucking godddddd i wish i could come out to my parents

[crownedinmarigolds]

I hope I can get my Poisoned Peach comic drawn up for everyone soon... the first "romance" scene is Sree the sanguine blood dyscrasia/moonlight professional dominatrix (also Khloe's usual coffee barista)  and Khloe after meeting outside of Sree's day job at the local popular though very small gay bar and I just really want that to be out there.

Do you have any Zhongli/Zhongchi fic recs? I haven’t found any that are nearly as good as yours 😔😔

funnily enough someone already asked this, but it was quite a while ago and tumblr is a mess to search old shit thru so here, this is the post this was asked during the ao3 crisis of- .......last year? i can't remember. either way, the post starts w me saying i don't have all the names and links but dw, after ao3 came back up i edited the post so you should see all authors and links in the recs.

i have to admit that for reasons unrelated to the fandom i haven't been reading many zhongchi fics as of late? so like- bear in mind i don't have an updated mental picture of any of the recs after the post was made. so if one went off the rails or if one of the WIPs finished, i'm not aware;; i also mention in the post that i'd add more recs if i had access to ao3 (which i didn't at the time bc it was down), and while that is true, it's been so long since i read any of them that i wouldn't be able to confidently reccomend them outside of 'i somewhat remember the plot and i remember liking it'. also i don't remember half of their names. so uh- yeah that's the list i think

Ep 5!!!

[misc-obeyme]

okay so! Imagine if you given the choice to marry barbatos and Solomon but here’s the twist! You have to choose only ONE to marry! Who would you pick? >:3

-🍁

Noooooo why do I have to choose?!

I want to marry both of them 😤

Though can you imagine having those two as husbands at the same time?? LOL oh ho ho that is fun to think about.

Right, but anyway, back to the question!

I'm really trying to come up with ways to get out of choosing lol. I'm like well technically I could marry either one of them and then have the other one just live with us or something... But I know that's not the point. I just want to find a way to keep them both!

But okay, if I had to choose for some reason...

I think I would choose Barbatos. But I would feel bad because I think Solomon would really struggle with rejection.

I almost chose Solomon for that reason alone because I think Barb could handle it better, but my heart was like, lol no you love that butler too much. And it's true, there's quite a lot I'd be willing to do if it meant I got to marry Barbatos. Sorry, Solomon.

But let the record show that I would rather just have them both to myself because I am greedy like that. speaking of greed I wouldn't mind Mammon as a third husband either tee hee

What's your favorite Buddie trope right now?

ummm dumb question: is a trope the same thing as a tag? because friends to lovers ofc, but...

" angst with a happy ending", "misunderstandings", "SECRET MARRIAGE"...and I recently discovered this one where basically Buck is everyone's fav and they protect him and he's the main character. It's like "protective firefam" or something.
