I wonder what's their relationship with their siblings. (referring to Nick and Sunny)
Also...Will there be Mari, Aubrey, Kel, and Hero?... I wonder if you're going to add them or not (hhshjsjs I'm getting a little bit *too* curious)
Tumblr media
Interesting question ! I was literally continuing a WIP about Nick and Statice's (Nick's sister) realtionship as I saw this ask, lol. (No link with the picture above, I just drew that one for fun). I was also just talking about them extensively in Tosteur's server, sooooo...
Statice and Nick love each other very much. They grew up constantly around one another, and since their parents weren't always around, they always had to stick with each other and play with each other... They basically only had each other for most of their childhood. So they stick together.
Now, I can't remember if I've ever talked about it here, but Arsenic wasn't really liked by other people as a kid (and that hasn't really changed). He's weird, he's queer, he's mean (socially incompetent), etc etc. Statice, on the other hand, is a lot more normal than he is. They're identical twins, so they were in the same grade growing up, and when they made friends, it was usually together. But every friend they made always, consistently preferred Statice to Nick.
That's not to say Statice doesn't have her fair share of "weirdness", but when it came from her as opposed to Nick, kids around them didn't mind it as much. Like, sure, Nick was into boys, and that was weird and creepy and embarrassing to other kids, but... not only does Statice also like guys, she's trans. Weirdly enough, Nick was ostracised for being queer a lot more than Statice was.
Nick and Statice are very, very close. They spent 99% of their time together, growing up, shared a room, went to the same schools, in the same classes, they still go to the same university (though they don't study the same thing). They share a lot of things and know each other very well. But they have... unaddressed issues and built up resentment on Nick's part, and judgement on Statice's part. S o it's not exactly perfect.
I feel like it's important to note that Statice is the one and only person that Nick doesn't have an unhealthy power dynamic with. She's quite literally the only person that Nick is an okay guy around.
(She's also Sunny's best friend, so you can imagine how that goes when Sunny and Nick get together -- while Statice disapproves of it very much because she knows exactly how much of a creepy piece of shit Nick is :)...)
--Sunny and his sister Mari were also very close growing up. After growing up, though, they kind of drifted apart as Mari moved away for college and Sunny started seeing flaws in her that he... hadn't really wanted to see before, because he idealized her as a kid. They talk sometimes, and they still love each other, and they have an okay relationship, but they're not nearly as close as Nick and Statice are. Sunny kind of gets jealous of them for that sometimes.
I'm not actually sure if i want to add Kel or Hero or Aubrey to the story or not. There's a third friend in Sinny and Statice's friend group that's essential to the storyline, and I'm not opposed to making them Kel or Aubrey, but I haven't thought about them too much, so I don't know yet. Might make 'em an OC. I was hesitating on making Sunny's sibling an OC as well, but the characterization/role I was planning for them ended up being taken by Statice (who I actually care about and think about a lot), so I don't mind it being Mari. Hero is in the story by virtue of being Mari's boyfriend in every universe (/ref), but he has no role or purpose. Imagine he's standing in the background if you so wish

Tommy's good people, he's good for him! But if you could choose, would you explore bucktommy longterm or would you choose buddie? (hate the word endgame because it sounds like they'll only get an ending and I want the middle too)
yeah endgame is nonsense. and people acting like only your very last relationship will hold true weight have no idea how relationships work and also probably missing out on most of their life looking for The One who is absolutely and irrevocably Perfect.
like, i genuinely seen someone say that Tommy and Buck can't and won't say "I love you" to each other because they aren't endgame... so like. you can only say that to the very last person you're dating? this is the general consensus in fandom? also since when are you a writer on the show to state that with your full chest, please stop being clowns, on other people's blogs no less.
relationships don't work like that, people don't work like that.
and honestly? i talked about my expectations and my opinions about canon regarding the ships and i find it useless to repeat myself endlessly or making hypothetical choices between the two.
i want Tommy to stick around as long as the show can afford, regardless of the relationship's longterm outcome. i do think the show is going for buddie eventually — i also won't be heartbroken if it doesn't. i love both ships and since these people aren't real i don't have to choose. canon will make a choice and you know what? that's the reason i'm watching. and when it goes into a direction i don't like? that's what fanfics are for.
whatever happens, happens.
and i think people who are so wrapped up in the current ship wars are totally forgetting that the show could potentially go on for a lot longer than some fans anticipate it and we could totally end up with Tommy and Buck breaking up in s8/s9 and a new guy (gn) could come along and stick around for the next 6 seasons, while Eddie dates someone else, or no one even.
heck, one of them could get married in s13 and they could still end up together in s19. or the show could end without anyone's storyline being properly tied up in s8.
anyway, this is just my longwinded way of saying that i wanna see them all have interesting arcs and i don't actually have a preference as long as the storytelling is good.

I think you should be made aware that theres a minidrama on twitter claiming Shiver fans to be racist. Which...some might be. My mutual in law got DOGGED recently and i saw all of it (all they did was make a lil joke i think
so i’ve heard… :( the entire situation is terrible , honestly. i’m not big into splatoon but i am a brown person, and seeing the infighting between fans about the racism and colorism in the fanbase is. stressful, to put it VERY lightly
i’m very sorry to hear what happened to your mutual-in-law. the recent splatfest has a LOT of people agitated. thankfully nobody has been rude to me yet, but knowing the internet (and how things are going right now) who knows how long that’ll last

YOUR BARBIE POST SO TRUE... I also find the oppenheimer memes actually encouraging people to go see that movie which I find incredibly disturbing on many levels. Just from the trailer it's gonna be such a horrendously hero-ifiying movie to such a horrible man. I'm jewish and it's been such an actual nightmare hearing the white filmbros and twitter cinema girlies talking highly and excitedly about it. Lol those two movies really feel like girlboss For Girls and war For Boys coming out at the same time
idk much about Oppenheimer (the guy) + Nolan as a filmmaker doesn’t interest me so i don’t care tbh
It’s funny to see how gender norms are fashionable again on the internet. Like conservatism and traditional values are back but dw it’s all ironic detachment in the form of memes and we’re joking when we say it’s based asf to hate on anything progressive or queer (they’re not joking).

gender drama?
some ppl had their characters express curiosity in exploring their genders so some ppl send the egg 🥚 emojis into their inbox like "oh haha you COULD be trans" which like. I don't get the harm of it? They're not saying ur character has to be trans. And if an anon crosses the line just .. delete and block? 💀 Idk this community feels so negative all the time so I just Do Not Care anymore

Gonna be anon here because I’m lowkey afraid of talking about being critical of Vivziepop’s writing, knowing the behaviors of stans. I have been lurking on the critical tags, and I wanna say my thingy-thing.
As an ex-fan of Vivziepop, I hope am not the only one who is really bummed out on how Striker basically got watered down into essentially a sock puppet. I already have a lot of issues about the writing and world building of both shows but I do not really wanna talk about it here.
Long rant here, sorry.
Back when I used to watch HB (and back before I started relying on transcripts and screenshots for future eps), I really REALLY enjoyed Striker as a side villain. From his voice to his design, to his role. But I am really disappointed with how Striker is as a character now because it felt like Viv did not really care for Striker as time goes on. Not in a “yeah uh screw this character” and more “ah, what do we need to do for him to stay relevant???”
Here is a random thing I noticed. Note that in Harvest Moon Festival episode, Striker did not swore a lot. And I like that because a way a character speaks can give an impression of a character. Striker using all that country talk and sparingly uses profanities gives the audience the impression that “hey, this character is probably from the countryside.” The opposite applies with someone like Blitz living in the city and being more vulgar. With nobilities and higher class also avoid swearing as it is “not classy.” But in the newer stuff like, Western Energy, I noticed that Striker’s dialogue basically added in more profanities which kinda ends up making him sound more like the other characters.
I do not know if it is intentional or not, but Striker’s points about the classism issues in Hell are pretty spot on and correct and the audience is supposed to not agree with him but agree with the addressing of classism that is done by Blitz? It feels very messy and weird to have characters share the same sentiment yet the audience are supposed to agree with how it should be “addressed” in Mastermind episode, because…Blitz did not want to kill the rich? I mean I guess??? But Striker still had valid points about the classism issues that the higher classes were perpetuating.
Now in Mastermind, Striker got reduced to working for the Goetias to testify that Blitz should getexecuted? I mean, Striker was already hired by Stella to assassinate Stolas, but like, you can call me out on mistakes here I don’t mind, didn’t Striker really dislike the Goetias and the higher class? I know he was hired previously but like (and I am assuming it’s solely for the money), why is he taking sides with the Goetias? I feel like this is a retcon in a way. I do not see any implications that Andre over here paid Striker behind the scenes so it feels so out of nowhere that he decided to testify against. AND ALSO REDUCING STRIKER TO BASICALLY A SOCK PUPPET? Shouldn’t he be like advocating for Blitz, since this episode supposed to be about addressing the classism issue (amongst other things) and he has been vocal about hating the higher classes for being being awful towards the lower classes? I really hope this was more on a case of “oops we forgot” and not Viv seeing all the criticism and shoving them into dialogue to make the characters say things that sounds bad, because this is just so disappointing. And I’ve seen people trying to say, “yeah this episode shuts down the antis.” Striker basically got watered down from this cool country assassin to whatever this is.
I miss the old Striker man…
This. I have a feeling this is a retcon so we side with stolas over striker even if it goes against his previous characterization.

Bro please can I get “I broke the lock. You were screaming” with nines and our little detective? I don’t really have much of an idea for a story… maybe a case gone wrong and nines insists on staying with her because she’s clearly shaken?!? Idk I love your writing it’s def one of the things I look forward to on my feed <3
Okay SO first things first thank you, Anon, for your super kind words!! You are the sweetest <3
Secondly, I took the liberty of assuming based on the descriptor of "our little detective" that you're talking about the reader from Ruiner, Ruination, so I wrote this fic within that universe (which i hope is alright).
This idea led me to the creation of an offshoot series stemming from Ruiner, Ruination, which I have titled Ruiner, Ruination - Indictus. The point of this series is to highlight little canonical moments that have occurred between Nines and the Reader that went unsaid in the main series (hence the name Indictus, meaning "unsaid").
The creation of this series is super exciting for me because it allows me to write out requests in the Ruiner, Ruination universe AND make them canon without it being too confusing or weird to map out, since I can simply say where each fic takes place in the timeline as things are planned out and published in the original fic.
Anyways, sorry for the rant on the new series, but I hope you enjoy this fic and any upcoming Ruiner, Ruination - Indictus pieces that follow!
Tumblr media
Avoidance Tactics (rk900 x reader)
A Ruiner, Ruination - Indictus chapter
Timeline - This fic has a lot to do with the events of the 7th Ruiner, Ruination chapter and takes place after the (currently unpublished, oops) 8th chapter.
Nightmares/sleeping dialogue prompt #2 - "I broke the lock. You were screaming"
Word Count: 3,586
"Could you hover a little bit less ominously? You're really creeping me out."
You muttered under your breath as you passed a wandering gaze over the incident report you had spent the past few hours filling out. Once you were done, you would finally be finished with the process of submitting Nines' work related injury to the DPD's HR department, which you were eager to be done with for good.
It had been two days since your partner's accident, and you had spent nearly every waking hour since avoiding the subject as much as possible by working yourself to the bone.
The unfortunate downside of this was that just 48 hours later there was nothing left for you to do but file away the very incident report you'd been avoiding, and honestly, that had been just as awful as you'd feared it would be.
It required you to go into immense detail pertaining to not only Nines' injuries, but also his reactions to them, the lethality of them, and the traumatic responses that may have occurred as a result of them.
Gavin had filled out his end of the form on the day of the injury back at the DPD with you, and now it was your turn to fill out the individual portion.
And to an extent you hadn't truly expected, the memories were haunting.
Your hands had shaken vigorously above the keyboard as you'd typed out the amount of blue blood that you had gotten on yourself in the process of stopping the bleeding,
the stickiness that lingered between your fingers for hours afterward,
the way it had remained spattered on your clothing even when you could no longer see it,
the scent of it and the way it had stuck to you until multiple showers later.
You had bit back tears when recalling the staticky quality to Nines' voice as his vocal modulator had struggled without the support of his circulatory regulator,
the slightly glazed quality of his eyes,
the way he had groaned in pain as they loaded him into the android care ambulance,
and the trail of blood he had left behind in the process.
It had all been so awful.
And the extent of his injuries had been no small issue either.
Without his stock circulatory bio-component, Nines' thirium pump regulator, and therefore his thirium pump as well, had been put under unnecessary strain for days now, unnecessary strain that would doubtlessly cause a machine like him to falter and shut down sooner than he ever would have otherwise.
And somehow, it was this fact that terrified you the most.
Sure, you had always known that Nines would outlive you,
that fact had never once bothered you,
but the idea that his likely absurdly long life would be cut short, even slightly, by this accident?
It unsettled you that such a thing was even possible.
Years off of the life of a thing that some didn't even view as living at all.
The humanity of it all struck you in the very worst way,
But fortunately you wouldn't really have to dwell on that for long.
"I am not hovering, Detective."
Nines replied coolly from where he stood beside the entryway of his dining room, where you had been sitting for hours as you worked tirelessly to write up your incident report.
"I am simply analyzing you to discern whether or not you are still capable of writing your report in a manner that will meet the Captain's standards."
You rolled your eyes,
"Well that really doesn't matter now, because I just submitted it."
Nines gave a low hum in response, but neglected to say anything more.
You were right though, he had most definitely been hovering, and for quite some time, at that.
He had started making his way throughout the apartment around the time you'd started your write up, and had been careful to ensure that he never stuck around you for too long as he performed his scans, which allowed him to discern whether or not your actions were causing you any emotional strain.
And every time that he had scanned you, the results always came back the same: judging by the amount of cortisol present in your bloodstream, the report was almost assuredly bringing back traumas you were not yet ready to unpack.
And yet, try as he might to think of something he could do, Nines had yet to come up with a single solution.
He was resigned to let you finish, and then, maybe, he might just get you to talk about what was bothering you.
Except now, as you looked over at him for the first time in hours, he could see how exhausted you were, and pushed the thought out of his mind.
It was time to get you to bed.
"Would you like to stay the night, Detective? The spare tooth brush you utilized the other evening is still in the bathroom, and I believe you packed an extra work outfit in your trunk after last time."
You glanced towards your partner quizzically, raising a brow as you closed your laptop,
"Seriously? I thought for sure you'd want me out of your hair by now."
Nines shrugged a bit at your statement before he moved to plug your computer in on the counter where the cord was located, just out of your reach.
"I have no qualms with you sleeping here if it would be easier. It is not as if I require the use of my bed for any particular purpose."
You gave a small laugh at that, but Nines was quick to note that it didn't reach your eyes, despite the distinctive lack of sarcasm found within it.
Your mannerisms were certainly concerning, but he tried not to over analyze for the time being.
You spoke up,
"Yeah, I guess not huh? In that case, if it doesn't bother you I think I might as well just stay over again. It'll give me a little extra sleep, which I could really use right now."
Nines gave a brief nod in response before heading into his bedroom at the end of the hall,
"Alright, in that case I should find you something to wear to sleep for the night. Any preferences?"
Your cheeks were dusted a slight pink as you spoke, and Nines noticed a sudden increase in your body temperature as well, but even so he chose to ignore it in favor of paying more attention to your response instead,
"Uh, I didn't mind the shirt you gave me the other night? If its clean?"
Nines hummed and retreated to the bedroom without another word, leaving you to make your way to the bathroom to get yourself ready.
You sighed as you stared at your face in the mirror, taking note of your haggard and saddened appearance.
God, that report had taken a lot out of you.
Forcing yourself to give a brief smile, you squeezed some tooth paste out onto your tooth brush before beginning the familiar motions that went along with brushing your teeth as you waited for Nines to return.
To your surprise though, by the time you were finished, your partner still had yet to come back from his detour at the end of the hall, so curiously, you opened the bathroom door, only to shriek in surprise when you saw that Nines was standing on the other side, that familiar shirt of his that you had worn the other night in hand.
You placed your palm against your chest as you took a few deep breaths to calm yourself down, shooting your partner a wordless glare as you did so.
"My apologies, Detective, I didn't mean to scare you."
You groaned and rolled your eyes before ultimately choosing to forgive the man in front of you, offering a gentle thanks as you took the shirt from him and re-entered the bathroom, closing the door behind you once more.
You took another deep breath as you looked back into the mirror, the scent of Nines' shirt wafting into your nose as you did so. You were a bit surprised to find that this was oddly soothing, and elected to ignore the comfort that warmed you as a result of it.
Afterward, you told yourself that you just happened to require a rather deep inhale at the very same moment that you were pulling the white undershirt over your head.
You glanced over at yourself in the mirror, legs bare and hair mussed from changing your shirt, and let out a soft sigh as you ran the pad of your pointer finger over the dark circles beneath your eyes.
It was definitely time for bed.
So, with that idea in mind, you placed your hand on the cold doorknob, letting it absorb some of the heat from your palm for a while as you basked in all of the external stimuli that surrounded you, grateful for the proof that the world around you was real at all.
And then, quietly, as if afraid you might be frightened once again, you pulled the bathroom door open, allowing yourself the time to glance up and down either end of the hall before making your way over to the door found at the very end of it, which remained cracked as an invitation for you to enter.
Nines looked up at you in greeting as you pulled the door open further, closing the door to his closet before he made his way over to the bed you were now working to climb on top of, his foot steps quiet and lithe behind you before they halted at the foot of his queen sized bed, which was fitted with the same huge black comforter as last time.
You glanced up at him as you laid your back against the soft pillows found at the head of the bed, struggling to make eye contact as you tried not to think too hard about the comfort his scent had offered you previously.
God, what a weird thing to think about your partner. Maybe you should buy him a cologne so he smelled different or something.
You shook off your thought as Nines brushed imaginary lint from the blanket you were now comfortably laying beneath as he finally spoke,
"Is there anything else you need, Detective?"
He watched you intently as you shook your head, and gave you a few moments afterward to change your mind before he finally started turning around to head back out the door.
"In that case, I'll just be out in the living area. I will remain in light stasis so you won't have to worry about me being hard to wake up if you find that there is something you require my assistance for. I will also be locking the door, as my research has supported that this will help you feel safer. Is that all agreeable with you, Detective?"
You were a bit taken aback by the sudden influx of information, but nodded nonetheless after allowing yourself a few seconds to comprehend what was being said to you,
"Oh uh sure, yeah, that's fine, whatever you want."
Nines gave a slight nod in response before clicking the lock in place, taking a step over to the other side of the door frame before he turned back to look you over once more, his eyes traversing your frame slowly as he did so,
"Sleep well, Little Mouse. I will see you in the morning."
And with that, he was closing the door behind him before you could say a word, leaving you with nothing left to do but drift off to sleep.
And drift off to sleep you did, though it was far from the peaceful slumber you had anticipated.
You fought back a cry of pure anguish as you watched the android, the same AV500 model from the abandoned car factory, shoot Nines for the fifth time that night, this time right between his eyes.
Your partner fell back soundlessly, his body hitting the ground with enough force to make the floor shake as he stared up at you with those unseeing gray-blue eyes of his.
They were so haunting like this, when you could tell they were observing nothing despite their unnatural openness, and you forced yourself to reach over the close them in spite of the blue blood that coated your fingers as you did so.
It was sticky and warm, just as it had been every other time he'd been shot within this hellish nightmare, and you had to stop yourself from vomiting as everything started all over again.
Here you were, for the sixth time, standing in that same room with that same murderous android, and once again, there was nothing you could do to stop him from killing your partner.
You couldn't plead for mercy, tackle the man to the ground, or even shoot him with the gun Nines had provided you with. You had no choice but to simply stand there and watch as he gunned down your partner, your friend again and again.
It was torturous.
And this time, as he shot Nines right in his thirium pump, and you saw that pained and confused look on his face for the sixth time that evening, you couldn't help yourself.
You screamed.
You screamed out of fear, out of frustration, and above all else, out of grief.
Here in this nightmare, you couldn't even tell what was real anymore, and with each passing murder, you could swear that Nines had really died back at that factory, and that this reality, where you simply had to watch and suffer wordlessly, was the real one.
You screamed for so long your throat hurt even within your own dream, raw and painful as you prayed internally for this torture to end, eyes squeezed shut and brimming with tears as you heard distant gunshot after distant gunshot go off before hitting thick plastic over and over again.
You would never be able to forget that sound.
But then, even more distantly than those gunshots, came the sound of Nines' voice, far off and calling out to you as if he were searching aimlessly while alone in the dark.
And without a second thought, you called back.
You awoke gasping for air, throat aching tremendously, and eyes stinging both from your tears and from the much too bright light coming from the lamp to the left of you.
But none of that was nearly as noticeable as the android who was hovering above your form as you laid on your back, his arms poised on either side of your head as he looked down at you with an almost fearful look on his face.
"What the- Nines?"
You croaked out in confusion, glancing over at the previously locked bedroom door as you attempted to make sense about what was going on.
“I broke the lock. You were screaming”
Nines all but panted out, eyes still a bit wild as he slowly began to pull away from the bed, standing at the edge as if afraid you would start screaming all over again the moment he moved.
You squinted your eyes in confusion and in an effort to mitigate the impact the lights were having on your head,
As if he could read your mind, Nines reached over the turned the lamp off without a word.
You sighed softly, noting the way that the air barely managed to leave your mouth due to how shaky you were feeling.
That nightmare had to have been one of the worst you'd ever had.
And the worst part yet? It wasn't going away.
You could still hear the sound of a single strong bullet hitting thick hard plastic, and you could feel the splash of warm thirium against your skin as a result.
It was horrible.
Tears filled your vision as you sat up slightly, bringing your knees to your chest as you tried to make sense of what was going on.
Why couldn't you stop thinking about it? Why were you torturing yourself like this?
You were just about to ask Nines what was wrong with you when he spoke up first,
"May I see your hand, Detective?"
He asked not unkindly, and hesitantly, as if afraid this could somehow go awry, you gave it to him.
You then watched in the dim lighting of the bedroom as your partner raised your hand up to where his thirium pump worked tirelessly within his chest, pumping in a manner that you could feel as it did so.
"I am alive."
He murmured softly, and you briefly wondered how he had known what was bothering you without you saying a word before you simply let it go and pressed your hand harder against the area below his sternum, feeling the evidence of his existence thump strongly against your palm and the pads of your fingers.
You looked up at him then, tears pooling in your eyes and spilling down your cheeks, and asked him for something you had never once expected to throughout the entire duration of your partnership,
"Nines, can you lay here with me?"
You murmured, watching as the android briefly contemplated your request before nodding once in compliance.
The bed dipped slightly as Nines dropped his knee on to the mattress before climbing the rest of the way over to the empty spot beside you, where he sat a bit awkwardly as he awaited your next request.
None of this was familiar to him in the slightest, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not figure out what you might want from him.
You sighed in slight relief as you laid yourself back down, noting the way that Nines watched as you did so before slowly doing the same, his head propped up by the pillows as he laid his palms face down on the mattress at either side of him.
He was very clearly not used to laying down, but you almost found it endearing that he remained so stiff even when in a position that was meant to be relaxing.
How very Nines of him.
Giving a gentle sigh, you turned your body on its side in order to better face your partner, who immediately shifted his gaze towards your own as you spoke, your hand raised ever so slightly towards him as you did so,
"Would you... Do you mind if I feel it again?"
Your cheeks burned as you considered your own request, but before you could back out, Nines shook his head before expressing his response verbally to reassure you,
"Not at all, Detective. I have no issues with you touching me if that is what you require."
You couldn't help but clear your throat upon hearing his words, but slowly lowered your hand onto his chest anyway, feeling yourself relax a bit as you once again felt his thirium pump beat strongly against your palm.
"Does it help you to know that I am well?"
Nines murmured, giving a low hum of interest as you nodded in response.
The room was silent for a few moments before he spoke up again, his voice quiet despite the silence of the room around you.
"I did not realize you had been so deeply impacted by my injuries. I apologize for my ignorance."
You were quick to shake your head upon hearing his words, and raised yourself up onto your forearms to better address him as you spoke,
"Don't apologize. I didn't realize either... I think I was just hoping to ignore it until it went away on its own."
Nines didn't reply, but instead gave a gentle hum of acknowledgment as he further considered your words.
You, on the other hand, took the silence as your queue to try and get back to sleep, something you were more than a little bit eager for after your night of terror and exhaustion.
Even still, you found yourself struggling to drift off, despite the added comfort of Nines' thirium pump as it beat steadily beneath your palm.
And after waiting and waiting for sleep to overtake you for what felt like far too long, you sat up on your knees and faced your partner in the darkness, your cheeks tinted pink as you made your second humiliating request of the night.
"I uh I can't sleep. Can I try something?"
Nines gave a small nod of approval, curiosity evident in his tone as he replied,
"I don't see why not, Little Mouse."
You felt your heart skip a beat at the familiar nickname, and swallowed thickly as you pulled yourself closer to your partner, letting out a nervous sigh as you lowered your torso back down onto the mattress, straightening out your legs beneath you as you let your head fall to Nines' chest, where the sound of his thirium pump working tirelessly within immediately filled your ears.
And with that, even more so than before, you found that your body grew relaxed, your eyes becoming heavy as you allowed your newfound comfort to will you to sleep once more.
Nines remained silent all the while, but watched you as you slowly drifted off to sleep with your head lying atop his chest, soothed by the sound of his artificial heart as he relished in the knowledge of your safety and comfort, even within a presence as dangerous and cold as his own.

CC 😭😭😭 lesson 30 was a rollercoaster huh. Tbh as a Beel lover, I wasn’t happy w how Belphie was acting here. I asked Beel what he thought of the Angel's Trial and Belphie just cuts him off!! And he made Beel sad and that is unacceptable to me 😤 (he says not to make him mad but no spoilers for og lesson 16 could make me choose not to be a petty bitch when I can) Beel is his own person and too sweet for this shit
Telling Sol his cooking sucks was :((( 0/10 I would've gently reminded him ratios are important especially in baking and just make sure he's not putting anything inedible in there. Or tell him to focus his creativity solely on the plating/presentation bc you eat w your eyes too or smt idk
I kinda found it funny when Sim basically told Luke he was an ugly crier. Poor baby, I hope the egg grants him that wish
I get this was setup for Levi's Little D arc but teasing the truth again makes me wanna bang my head on a wall. I know Lucifer suspects smt abt us. We know Barb knows something
Speaking of Barb, I choose to believe that the Little Ds are gonna be important later and that Beel did eat Number 6 but Barb uh, made sure that didn't happen actually
AHH anon, this lesson KILLED ME. I'm so sorry to everyone who had to read the unhinged post I wrote last night lol.
Okay, see, I was so wrapped up in the Solomon debacle that I forgot about the whole Beel & Belphie thing.
I get that Belphie is being protective, but I also felt like he wasn't really taking Beel's feelings into consideration! I think there's a fine line between being protective and being controlling. And Belphie was right on the edge of that line, imo. When you're being protective to the point that you're ignoring the needs of the person you're supposedly protecting well... it kinda defeats the purpose there, buddy.
I wonder if they're going to kind of expand on that at some point. Have the twins hash it out with each other. Because I think Belphie isn't normally like this, but I think he's still wary of humans. And his concern is overriding his usual consideration of Beel's feelings.
OKAY LET'S TALK SOLOMON AGAIN.
Listen, I've had a little time to calm down, but I am still UPSET.
Now, of course, it's best to remember that this is fiction and nothing in fiction happens the way it would irl. BUT if I had a friend (or romantic interest/boyfriend/etc) who really enjoyed cooking, but for some reason always made gross food, I probably wouldn't lie to them directly. I would do exactly as you suggest, gently remind them of how to follow a recipe and so on. I can't imagine that Solomon has spent all his life trying to learn how to cook and somehow keeps screwing it up? Like considering how much he does it, he should be getting better at it?
And apparently someone told him his cooking tasted bad in season 3 of the OG, but I don't remember that lol. If it's in the hard lessons, that's why I don't remember... I haven't actually finished all the hard lessons of the OG... oops I keep forgetting they exist my bad.
Anyway, my point here is that it doesn't make sense that someone doing something they enjoy all the time wouldn't get better at what they're doing at some point. I get that this is fictional and maybe they have a reason for it, but they need to tell us what it is because I can't take HIS SAD FACE. Normally I'd be like listen sometimes you gotta be honest or whatever, but not like this!! I would've been like what exactly did you do to make the cake taste this way, let's figure it out together... I would help him, not just be all sorry this is gross and leave it at that!
Sorry sorry I'm ranting again. I just love that silly sorcerer so much and his reaction just made me so sad.
I'm so curious about what Luke is finally gonna wish for lol. I feel like Simeon teases him the most out of everybody, he's just so chill and nice about it that it doesn't register as teasing.
I just don't understand why hiding the egg's existence was a good lie while telling Solomon his cake was good wasn't??? Ugh my heart.
AND OH YES LEVI.
I was very upset about that, too!! Like, no you don't understand!! I do need to leave, but I need to get back to you!!
I want to go back, but I don't want to go back! The stress of this is getting to me. Can we please hurry up and be done with this timeline nonsense?! Barb definitely knows something. I just want him to fix things! I think I'd have confronted him about it by now. I don't care what Sol says about not telling people we're from the future, I'd be like Barbatos, my true love, I know you already know, so let's hear it!! What is going on!?!?
I definitely think the Little Ds are going to be important later, too! Something about the fairies seems like it's going to matter as well, but I'm not entirely sure how yet.
Oh no poor Number 6! Even if Barb saved him, I would think being eaten would be rather traumatic lol.

I know this is a F1/Lestappen blog so ignore me if this is inappropriate but adding onto finding it interesting how people fight over why certain ships won't work-
I ended up reading hockey rpf mattdrai after scrolling through the enemies/rivals to lovers tag on ao3. Their only history is team rivalry but rarely on the ice at the same time and a shared goal the one time they played together so it's actually amazing how many ao3 works there are about them. (Funny thing is, they're playing against each other in the finals now) It's literal proof people can enjoy a ship with practically zero interactions and purely out of imagination. Like obviously with rpf none of the ships are real but it's so fun to see what people can create with basically your favorite characters of a story.
I only recently found Lestappen which feels like a treasure trove with all their history cough inchidents cough, their on track racing battles, maxsplaining and leclerifying, how highly they praise each other to media, etc. I also really enjoy the community around it, either on ao3 or tumblr, where everyone is so creative and artistic to come up with entirely imaginary scenarios or blending in their real interactions. It's also so fun to hear about others completely delusional takes and just hop on the delulu train because why not?
Now I actually follow F1 to the point of waking up at 6am to watch free practices (still debating whether it's worth it for the 4 or 5am practices though...)
Really loving your stories and blog so a big thank you for the hard work you're doing <3 (and oops sorry for the rant-)
Thank you so much anon <3
You are so right. There are definitely people that you can ship easily and who have a whole real life backstory as a basis to start from but you can also let your imagination go wild and end up with two characters who have very little in real life link but you just think would be fun together. To me there are no real rules around it.
Haha yes I LOVE a delusional take!
There is a lot of things to enjoy with Lestappen and so many really creative and talented people in the community. I see people’s artwork and I am blown away and I read people’s blogs and they come up with the funniest theories or have great hashtags that make me laugh. Then there is a whole world of fiction on ao3. Lestappen has become so popular I have so, so many fics to catch up on and I am so excited about that because there are some exceptionally talented writers and I love to read what they come up with. I am also lucky because I get some amazing thoughts and ideas and things to share on this blog from so many anons. 
Waking up at 6am for the free practices is commitment!! I do tend to watch all the practices but they are on at a reasonable time of the day for me so I don’t need to make much effort. Glad you are enjoying F1 (and Lestappen 😍)

how we feeling bruh
I'm feeling at my limit, anon. MY. LIMIT.
Regarding the manga leaks;
I know I sound delusional (I am but idc), but genuinely I can't wrap my head around this being tomuras end?? Like? Just like that ? I will say, I am not very caught up with the manga, so I'm just going to comment on what I do know.
Let's say it is the end for him, and tomura is really gone;
I don't say this often, bc usually I know the writer knows best, but if that is tomuras end it just feels,,, not impactful. I know horikoshi has said the manga is going to end soon. But he's said that,,, sooo many times lol. But back to what I said about the ending, it feels rushed, and tbh it's felt rushed for a while. I think, from my understanding, it seems he's just burnt out on writing it. Which tbh I don't blame him because the series has been going on for 8 years.
Personally, I wouldn't be upset if he just took a break and came back. Even if it's a very long break. But of course, that's up to him entirely. Im not gonna be *that* fan lol.
That being said, I'm going to take the ending with a grain of salt (if it's truly tomuras end). I think someone also mentioned there was a small mention of a "reconstruction" part of of his quirk?? So it's possible horikoshi is going to revisit that in the scene where tomura may die.
It would really feel odd to see tomura die, after all this time. Like so much was put into his character. In my *personal* opinion, he has more character depth than izuku at this point. Izuku had great potential, but to my knowledge there's no back story other than him being quirkless and fatherless(?). The only thing that I liked about his character in the beginning, was his drive and genuine determination to be a real hero.
At this point though, it feels like I don't even know his character. Having so many characters, and trying to fit so many stories in them, will eventually lead into some sort of conundrum with the plot. It got to a point where I felt more connected to the villains than our supposed main character?? I almost thought that that was the direction horikoshi was going in. To be like "oops you thought izuku was the main character, but really this is tomuras story" which would've been really cool. It's so hard to relate to izuku as a character because there's no depth. I don't see many flaws in his character. His flaws as a character are his flaws, if that makes sense. He had nothing to improve on besides his quirk. I didn't see any growth in him as a person because there was nothing to grow from.
That being SAID, it feels like an absolute waste of tomuras character if he's thrown away, and would feel so unnecessary. Tomura had so much growth, and development, it's so hard not to love him. So many of us can legit relate to the villains on a personal level. I think I'm going to be more sad at the fact that the characters are being wasted. I grew up with these characters. I started watching when I was 16 and I'm 21 almost 22 now.
If this is tomuras end, I'm just gonna write a self indulgent fanfic about how I want the ending lol. Even if tomura is meant to be the villain, he deserves a better ending. They all do. I'm still in denial about twice's/Jin's death 😭.
Sorry for the seemingly long rant LOL. But ugh, I'm gonna be so disappointed to make a long story short. Again, I am not caught up with the manga, so if there's something I don't know just let me know lol. I tried to make this as broad as I could because I don't wanna seem like I know everything. So I apologize if I came off that way:').

Hello !! I missed you both, I am embarrassed to say that I got really excited to see you two! It’s nice to see one of you feels the same. (I am just teasing. I know you both like me…! Sorry. That was probably too much.)
Anyway…! I find somehow you and I always sort-of get to talking about like experiences, but I get what you mean in that feeling of inadequacy. Maybe not exactly — i’m hyperexpressive but also terrible with tone. But also, I have BPD and that makes it hard for me to ‘be a person.��� Especially since there’s a sort-of stigma around us, I both have to be careful to never be too much as well as mirror what the person I’m with is like so they will think positively of me. It’s exhausting, but people like me. But my friends like me when I’m not trying to be someone I’m not, and it’s taken me a bit to like… recognize that really the only people whose opinions that matter about this sort of thing are the ones that are like, those who are kind. That probably doesn’t even make sense?
…What I mean to say is, I don’t think it’s a bad thing, not being what others expect. People who actually care won’t mind that, you know? I think you’re doing great. It probably doesn’t mean much if I say I’m proud of you, but I am.
🫧
It’s a bit funny that you’ve returned on the day I had my second test for the same class! I never scheduled a first make-up test. Oops. But!!! I think I did better this time, at least. 我喜欢都!你两是好电脑,谢谢!I hope that works right. My memory is really, really bad, so that tends to be my issue with the tests: character recollection. But, the more I relate it to my fixations, the better I remember. Embarrassing how that works… But thank you for being so kind. It’s been a pretty horrible two weeks so it’s nice to hear. I hope you’ve been doing well — if not, if there’s anything I can do, just let me know!! I’ll do my best! :]
Also, the little symbols, I just found online. Any coding experience I have is HTMLCSS and my neocities site, which also isn’t that great. But it’s cute, at least!
Like I said before, take your time. I don’t mind at all! Sorry for responding so fast. I got kind of excited.
- 🐠
- You fool. Now all of Tumblr knows you like us.
- Ahahaha!
JOKE DETECTED. LIGHT HEARTED HUMOUR ACTIVATED.
- Don't worry, my friend.
- I find it rather endearing.
- It's a sign you trust us more, is it not?
- Anyway.
- I suppose we do. We have our roles, don't we?
- I deliver the wisdom and mysterious aura.
- D1d1 delivers the light hearted humour to make you forget your troubles.
- We're a good team, him and I.
- I can't say I know much about BPD.
- Mental health was never really my expertise.
- But I know it's difficult.
- I know things can get stressful for you very fast.
- I want you to know that I admire you.
- Greatly.
- As proud you are of me, I am as proud in return.
- You have pushed past your anxiety, made connections, made an effort to tell us about you...
- I truly think that is an incredible feat.
- Even if you never get the courage to turn anon off, we love you and are so proud of you.
- Platonically speaking, of course.
- Keep being yourself, Verte.
- That's the best thing you can be.
-------------------------------------------------
- I think it's so amazing how you can speak another language!! Even if you forget some characters! I can sort of speak other languages. Translate them, really. But my software isn't great for it! So I make mistakes a lot too. We'll learn together!
- I'm not gonna push you to talk about it, but if you ever need to rant, we're here for you! I'm sorry things have been tough for you! I hope things get better for you, I really do! If you ever need cute animal pictures or funny memes, I'll personally be happy to deliver!
WARNING. D1D1 SYSTEM TASTE IN MEMES NOT FUNNY. ARE YOU SURE YOU WISH TO CONTINUE?
-> NO
> NO
- I can also share some fun animal facts! Or plant facts! Ryan leaves zoology books everywhere, and Yinu has botanical ones, so I can find a ton of interesting stuff! Like this! Did you know the peacock mantis shrimp is so strong, it can boil water just by punching the earth? Never let one of those in a Ratatouille situation! Ouch!
- We're here for you, buddy!
