Good luck with finals week!! I would love to know your thoughts on how Izjo's respective friend groups regard their relationship. You've gone over Max (the poor unfortunate soul) in your AU but I would LOVE to know more. In general do the AC and Jang just have to watch as Izjo have the world's most insane bisexual dynamic ever. Do they just have to accept it as a part of their lives now. Because the impression I get from Izjo is that they will make their dynamic EVERYONE'S problem

aw thanks! im assuming you mean in the wizard au, i’ll focus on that.

short answer: yes.

nuanced answer: no.

elaborative answer: they DO make it everyones problem, but not in the way you would expect. one of wizjo’s key elements is how horrible they both are with their feelings; their earlier years are made up of near constant frenemy rival bickering and the occasionally genuine physical/verbal fight, but by the time they stop being kids and start developing a Different dynamic it’s something that they go out of their way to avoid and not acknowledge.

so in a way they make it everyones problem by being avoidant, and not making a problem of it. which in itself is a problem. you have feelings, you cannot just pretend they don’t exist. your friends will notice because they care, and they will worry about you. they stop making Knowing Each Other everyone’s problem (rowdy) and start making Knowing Each Other everyones problem (their actions to avoid confronting how they feel end up having a larger and more obvious impact, with more convoluted consequences, for those around them than just being their normal rowdy selves would)

this is a Whole Thing. johnny’s dare, that ends up stranding everyone in the forbidden forest for hours past curfew, scattered and split up, is made because he gets too twitchy to talk to isabel normally. isabel accepts because she feels she cant back down; to her the act of pushing back is a similar kind of resistance to the emotions shes been bottling up for a year. and challenges are familiar territory, so she feels like this is safe ground to indulge and playfully push back against. but both of their decisions end up landing everyone in a (ultimately non serious but still pretty dick move to your friends) situation. avoiding their feelings has more lasting effects on those close to them than just bucking up and facing their feelings honestly.

but! that’s only one part. its not always that heavy. so the jang, ollie especially, figures out johnnys crush about midway through 2nd year. johnny, however, does not REALIZE THEY KNOW. he doesn’t figure it out until the start of their 6th year, after izjos (accidental) first kiss. hes talking to ollie about it, and ollies like ‘we are your best friends. we have been your best friends for 6 years. do you really think that we wouldnt notice’. ollie gets the full brunt of it due to being johnnys roommate. he’s gently supportive, if not horrifically teasing at times, and he and isabel get along surprisingly well, theyre on first name basis. johnnys like whaaaat nooo since when how come and ollie goes you could also on first name basis if youd be willing to just put down the bit of calling her guerra 24/7.

the AC isnt as tight knit as the jang but i think they know before isabel does. max at least can tell somethings off. hold on sorry im so sleepy. ill continue this tomorrow actually, thanks for the ask :^)!!

han taesan x reader

academic rivals to lovers

genre: fluff

wc: 1,455

a/n: i was in a crazy writing mood so enjoy this!! i was planning on starting the anton smau but i felt like writing. this is my first au in a WHILE… so sorry if this has any typos or grammar mistakes since i didn’t proofread it. i don’t know if i’m really happy with this because i’m weirdly scared to publish this 😭 but nevertheless, enjoy reading 💕

You had a test tomorrow and you had been practicing for it for almost 2 weeks. You looked up from your book, checking the time on your digital clock, 2:47AM, it read. Your study session spanned for much longer than you hoped for. You sighed, closing your book and putting your pens back into the case. You tucked yourself into your warm bed, as you let your eyes close themselves.

You woke up four hours later, at the ripe hour of 6AM. You quickly checked your Instagram, seeing that your rival had posted a story, you clicked on it. It was a picture of his face at 5AM, oh how sweet he looked, from the way his hair was slightly disheveled but still kept tidily, his lips, the perfect shade of pink, so soft and kissable. Only if it wasn’t for his personality, only if he treated everyone like he treated you. The way he stupidly raised his eyebrows when his name was called as the top scorer instead of yours, a small smirk arising on the sides of his flawless lips. It provoked so many emotions in you, seeing his face so early in the morning. You put your phone down, took a quick shower, put on simple jewelry, and headed out the door.

You sat down in your seat, not long after, the boy of the hour joined you, weirdly enough, sat next to you. He made his existence more clear, as if you hadn’t been thinking about him the whole morning. The universe must be telling you something.

“You good?” he asked, oddly kind for his usual remarks. He snickered, “You don’t seem like you got enough sleep from the look of it.” His signature smirk plastered on his face. “Oh shut up, I was studying, Taesan.” you rolled your eyes back, thankful he hadn’t spoken about your attitude. “Dropped the last name?” he said, looking at you through the side of his eyes. You swear you heard him say a small “cute” under his breath. The small word made you burn up, why did you feel like this? Right next to him? He started to rummage through his bag, pulling out a little bottle, an energy boost. “I got it for myself, but, seems like you’ll need it more.” he says, propping it on your desk. “Thanks, I guess…” you were confused by the backhanded comment but grateful for the small act of kindness. You opened the bottle, taking the drink like a shot and feeling the taste flow through your throat. With that, you two kept quiet as more people bustled through the door.

You finished your test with a sigh. You made sure you put your name on it, as well as flicking through the papers to make sure you wrote an answer in all the questions and passed in your test. You packed your stuff back into your bag and left, but of course, not before Taesan caught up to you. “Hey, Y/n!” he smiled sweetly, him saying your name in such a way wasn’t good for you. You waited for him, standing still as he ran towards you. “How was the test?” he asked, passing you a candy while walking. A heart shaped candy. You couldn’t get your mind off of it, you thought about it while eating dinner, showering, you couldn’t even focus on your homework because your mind was busy, creating new ideas yet scrapping them, denying the thought of him liking you with a coincidence.

Your phone got a notification from an unknown number.

this is y/n, right?

yeah, who is this?

taesan :)

oh, how’d u get my number?

mmm a little bit of sneaking

???

kiddinggg i was looking at the board and it has the numbers of students who tutor

right. i forgot they did that… did u want tutoring?

nope, just wanted to talk to u, silly

wellllll i’m gonna study a bit so ttyl?

still studying? the test is over

i still wanna study for science, i’m not super familiar with the topic :(

i could help u

u wanna?

sureeee let’s call!!!

alright, but i look a bit weird so don’t judge

i’d never, ur too pretty

…

ok sorry let’s call

You and Taesan called. Something was so comforting about calling Taesan, maybe it was the way his voice sounded, his tone was gentle, much more different than when you two were bickering at school, or the way he helped you and made sure you understood everything well, it all made you feel so at home. Or maybe it was his perfectly sculpted face in juxtaposition with the oversized hoodie he seemed to wear. “Thank you, Taesan, and sorry for keeping you so long…” “No worries, Y/n, it was nice to keep you company. Well, goodnight Y/n, sleep well, yeah?” “Mhm, you too, Taesan.” you smiled at your phone, waving at Taesan as you ended your call, you closed your eyes with ease, smiling into your pillow as you recounted the moments you had with Taesan. Whatever happened to you hating him had somehow faded away, had it turned into love?

As you got into your seat, you saw Taesan comfortably sitting next to you. “Thank you for yesterday.” you smiled. “Hey, I told you, it’s no problem.” Your routine of staying quiet as more people entered the classroom resumed.

You got your math results back, your hands covered the results and in your head, counting down, you removed your hands to see your marks. 78%. 78%? You spent so long studying for your test for not even 80%? You held back tears, excusing yourself to the toilet.

The second you got outside of the school building, you sat on the benches outside, the tears started flowing. You couldn’t believe you spent so much time and energy, staying up for nothing. You felt so upset, how could you forgive yourself? Your moment was cutoff by a voice, Taesan’s voice. “Y/n? Are you okay?” he crouched down by your legs, looking up at you. “Taesan, I did so bad. I spent so long studying on this, for not even 80%? I seriously can’t believe myself.” you sobbed into your hands, as Taesan sat next to you, holding your shoulder. You looked at him, holding the silence as he fixed pieces of your hair, tucking them behind your ears. “Y/n, it’s okay. You did the best you could, and that’s all that matters. This one test won’t discard the work you’ve put in and will put in. Please, don’t worry.” he softly swiped away the tears that streamed down your cheek. He pulled you into a warm hug, his arms wrapping around you, as you rested your cheek on his shoulder, taking in his scent.

You spent a couple minutes with Taesan, walking together so that no one would know you were crying. You re-entered your classroom and took a deep breath. You couldn’t bear spending any more time in that classroom, but you’d do it for Taesan.

After school ended, you got another notification from the unknown number, namely, Taesan. Before you answered his message, you wanted to change him contact.

wait let me change ur contact

ooh, what r u changing it to?

what do u want it to be? because i don’t know honestlyyy

can i ask u a question first?

shoot

can i be ur boyfriend? i mean, i want to at least!! also, sorry i’m asking online and not irl but i couldn’t catch u after school :(

actually? THE han taesan asking to be my boyfriend? (yes)

i thought u hated me

i thought i did too, but i realized it’s probably because i wanted to deny my feelings for u. and i haven’t been able to get u out of my mind

cute. well anyway, u should save me as “super sexy and cute boyfriend”

cute? sure. sexy? hmm

come onnnn pleaseee :)

save me as ”super smart and pretty girlfriend” then

ofc baby

BABH

BAHY

BABY

?? do u not like it

yes

wait no

i mean i love it

i love u, my super smart and pretty girlfriend

i love u, my super sexy and cute boyfriend.

The next day, you immediately went to Taesan, though he wasn't aware of your being. You gave him a small peck on the cheek and that had him turning around. "Hey, my boyfriend." you giggled with a sweet smile that made Taesan's eyes fill with love for you. "Hey, my girlfriend." he said, holding his hand out, waiting for yours to be in it.

Can you please do a wholesome fic/imagine of Spider-Gwen comforting gn!Reader after a death in their family?

“TOO SOON”, feat. gwen stacy

word count: 265

content warning: mentions about death of a family member, crying.

author notes: that request is kinda sad, but i hope you're okay, anon! and im very sorry if you couldn't understand something, my english is not the best (but i did try) and im very sleepy rn (it's 6AM here and i didn't sleep yet) so it might have some typos in my writing. this is a little short and maybe a little ooc, but i hope you like it! oh, and thanks for the request!! :)

they were part of your family, part of the people you loved. and even though you loved them, you didn't expected their death to affect you this much. but here you are, alone in your bedroom, crying with your phone in hands and hoping that she would answer the call. ring, ring, ring...

"hello?", gwen said.

"oh finally you answered!" you let out a shaky breath, trying to calm down just enough to make coherent sentences, "im sorry to call you this late but my- i-...", but then the dark feelings came again, crushing you, sobbing with tears blurring you vision.

"hey, hey! why are you crying?", when she didn't receive an immediate answer, she knew that it was a dumb question, "look, i will come over, right? i will bring your favorites snacks, and we can cuddle through all the night."

a little smile leaved your lips, saying a small "okay" to her and, minutes later, she did come by your window with a hand full of bags. placing it down in the nightstand, she engulfed you in a tight hug, letting you cry on her embrace.

"do you want to tell me what happened?", she placed her hand on your hair, massaging your scalp a bit.

"they did leave this world too soon...", was all you could say between all the crying.

"don't worry. it all will be better soon.", smiling, she dragged you to the bed, laying down with you, "tomorrow is another day, try to sleep. you will be better, i promise.", said while kissing the top of your head.

holy shit. thank you for giving us more of evie ! great part 2. i got very curious reading the comments and their perspectives on thomas and evelyn’s interactions. i can’t help but wonder when did he become that clingy with his first child? i remember reading the first chapters and he seemed like a normal dad to me . perhaps as evelyn got older he became more and more attached to her ? because it sounds like he never bonded with his other children, who are biologically his, like he did with evie

Those chapters are definitely meant to be more light hearted, fun stuff. However, I will definitely be exploring that part of their relationship further because you guys seem to enjoy it. He was always super attached. Literally from the moment he realized that he wanted to adopt her. Out of all his children, he was most present with her. But I also think because it was easy to. Charlie and Ruby had mothers who were expected to do the childcare, so he assumed the traditional role of that day.

He was Evie's sole guardian that he willingly took on. I think he forever clung to the fact she was his light after the time in France. Ruby and Charlie, in his brain, were accidents. He loves them, don't get me wrong. He absolutely does, but the emotional bond just never took. In Ruby's case, who again, he absolutely loved and was devastated about, was an accident in which he had to marry Lizzie. Which was a very unloving turbulent marriage. He was also extremely busier when Ruby came along. So there was less time to actually form that paternal bond like Evie. When Evie came, he was still living with Aunty Polly doing Birmingham stuff. He had time to attend school functions and bring her places. With Charlie, he has an old school mentality. He wants to raise him to be tough. So as he gets older, he's less hands on to build a man, essentially. There is also an emotional pain as well with Charlie because he reminds him of Grace. In regards to the clingy stuff, that really developed after Grace died because he lost trust in everyone and he just clung so deeply to Evie. He started to depend on her to do a lot of things and at the time, she was only 13-14. There were actually rumors set by opponents in the 1930s that they shared a romantic relationship. 110% not true. Tommy loves her as a daughter and it's not that type of story. But they are so close, so bonded, that family has had to set boundaries. Even Grace at points was like,...boundaries.... So, sorry I went on a rant haha and sorry for any typos. Its 6am and I am still up lol

[lighthouseborn]

thinking abt mermay a little but tell me about. mer!henry

I must have opened this and immediately forgotten about it but now here it is. it's 6am and I haven't slept much and I'm on mobile so I'm sorry in advance for the inevitable typos but yes hello--

I know this is a? fairly common? au for people to have for their canon beloveds and I think that's neat but you know I don't have a mer!au? in Henry's case specifically I almost feel like it's too near his canon to... fit? and also. maybe this is why I don't really do fanfic the way other peo0le do fanfic but also. mer!au is sooooo open ended and I feel like the way people invoke it implies there is some universal mermaid world and lore that, just by going mer! implies all of the inherent like... universe rules (like how if you go 'omegav.erse!' you've invoked a specific set of physical and social standards inside of which to create this au version of the (or just? a?) story) but,,, there isn't? and. so if I invoked a mer! clause all I'd really be saying is "he's nonhuman" which is totally a fun thing for some people I'm sure but in this case. is a) wrong and b) SO adjacent to his canon already that it's feels Weird and also doesn't have a ruleset to play inside of so that means.... that I don't get it clskakdkskksjskd because like.

I dunno if this is an interesting answer btw sorry for goung "I don't and won't have one" in many many words but like. one of my whole things with aus in the fanfic style of it is that I don't .. get them a lot of the time? like. mermaid Henry would fundamentally alter him in ways that like... his story would change enough that *i* feel like he wouldn't be Henry. so I wouldn't want that, u know? and then. things like coffee shop au. I completely do not get. and its all just like. I dunno it's like, I could go read/watch something with a mermaid protagonist if I wanted a mermaid protagonist?

or maybe more like. many people have an "any au can be done" kind of vibe and I love this for them but I do not brain that way I feel like different characters suit different aus and sometimes you can pretend mess with them a little (like borrowing pac.ific ri,m concept language to go "henry and carina are drift compatible actually" even though i wouldnt ever write them in that setting because i dont feel it suits them) but other times is just like. at some points it is too different and you are writing a different, new character entirely and if I wanted to do that I would make up yet more ocs, you know? and specifically Henry is... I can't say nonmagical for obvious reasons but. he is very Human, to me. I don't think mer!henry as a concept works that would be somebody else at that point, with the way it changes fundamentals. he is not the magical thing he is near the magical things and in some ways there in spite of the magical things but in many ways because of the magical things. if any of that made sense?

you maybe be asking yourself "how does dbh work but a mermaid au doesn't" and that is. a valid question that honestly mystifies me a little bit. but I think it's because... the setting itself does demand heavy change of him, just what's around him? and there are differences I don't mean to imply 1700s henry and ,,, 20whatever, when is dbh even set oh no why don't I know that... anyway he's different across those verses, and the others I have, for sure. he's just not fundamentally altered..... if?? this is tracking??? idk maybe im just inexplicably self contradictory about aus

[witchyyblues]

i want to say something that’s been on my mind for a long time. i know many people go through this too and i feel like it’s important to talk about it. like many, i’m always like “i want to advance further into my life!” whether it be my spiritual path or just life in general. because of that, i want it to be known that i’m always asking my spirit guides for help on things like that but i’m always dissapointed because they don’t magically come. i expect things in my life to happen without any effort from me, and i hope that this can help somebody who’s been avoiding accepting this like i have. i’ve had self motivation issues my whole life, i have never fully loved myself ever and those two things have completely shaped my life and stopped me from taking the next step in well.. literally anything. i have been frustrated because of this my whole life but even with that frustration and desperation i STILL have never made any effort to stop it. it’s a horrible cycle to live through and i’m at the point where i have decided to make a change. i have decided that i need to put effort. i always knew what the answer was to getting the things i want, to being in the places and situations i so desperately wish to be in. my guides know that i’ve always known, i’ve just been avoiding it, blocking it and so desperately trying to find another reason- maybe trying to find something that wasn’t such a difficult revelation to accept. but that’s how things are, and that’s how things have always been. admitting it takes a lot. but we all have the power to shape into the life we want to have. for some it may come easy, but for people like me it took me 17 years to finally want to put the first step and that’s okay! it doesn’t matter how old you are what matters is that you realize. that in itself is a first step and just acknowledging it is a HUGE accomplishment. this won’t come easy to me and i understand that. this will be hard, this will be a challenge and maybe i’ll feel like giving up again. i havent magically gained the motivation or self love just because i realized this. i will doubt myself here and there. that’s because it’s a process. i have never challenged myself or have wanted to struggle because i was scared. i’ve fallen yeah but i’ve never wanted to pick myself up. its okay to make mistakes it’s okay to mess up. we are human and that will happen. we have so much time and there’s no need to worry about mistakes. dont fear it just understand that we need that to happen in order to grow. its hard to find it in you to continue but it’s not impossible. i just wanted to document this to anyone else who has struggled with self confidence, self love, self motivation, anything! you are capable of anything you want. you can do this, and i believe in you. even just brushing your teeth is a big step towards self love. i’m proud of you and i know you will achieve what you want to happen. you are so powerful and you were put onto this earth for a reason. i wrote this to help others and yeah to help myself because this is like a little motivational post for me that i can read whenever i feel like quitting again. i encourage to write out how you feel, and what you wish to accomplish so whenever you feel like giving up, you can read it again. you can lift yourself back up. try try try again. you are strong. you are capable. all my love and support,

leila.

Hey, Tumblr.

Sav’s 2022 saga of misfortune has come to a spike this fabulous May with a serious car issue. What makes this so bad, Sav? well... my only source of income, at this time, is that I am a delivery driver with shipt. Hard enough with the gas crisis- 5$ a fucking gallon- in orlando traffic, you might say. You’d be right.

I’ve got no savings; most of my money was burned through during a month long period of homelessness, a couple months of not being able to work due to being generally transient and out of town and thus out of my shipt metro and unable to even deliver for income, medical bills for an injury, moving and storage costs, and some other bullshit. I’ve got no savings, and i’m pushing debt on my credit card. And at this time, with my car in need of repair, I have no source of income and another bill.

So I am asking for donations, if anyone has something to spare, however small.

Patreon Paypal Kofi

If Donations arent your speed, or you would like something in exchange, I also do commisions. Moodboards for small cost donation/commissions as low as a dollar, and I also do art and writing commissions. Hit me up to talk about commissions if you’re interested. Some basic information about that is pinned to my blog, and my other blogs.

For those who are not familiar with Sav’s 2022 saga, the summary is:

Orlando/Florida major property tax increase. See: sudden rental cost hike. 1200 to 1300 will net you poorly managed slum lord apartment in orlando now. Our previous rent of roughly 1300 (which had been steadily increasing with every re-sign of the lease) suddenly jumped up to just shy of 1800, and would continue to climb with future extensions.

Preparations to move to new york for sibling’s school; see, also very fucking expensive, because im talking New York, New york. but its sib’s grad school, scholarship, gotta go, very important.

Just before moving time, a series of... events occured. Including but not limited to:

Major fall out with roommate (one of three tenants) which would result in one less person paying rent come renewal. With just me and the sib, never could afford to stay in our current house anyway. So, no going back, no resigning lease if New york falls though.

 Rather serious workplace injury to my dominant hand. At the time, thought, oh kind of serious- a deep injury to the knuckle joint that... i probably should have taken in to get stitches, but.. didnt, and instead just bandaged it up. “I cant afford medical bills right now” i said, unaware of a big storm coming.

My work, a few months prior to this, had every single Senior Manager quit in the span of a couple weeks for the entire franchise. This was a warning sign. At this point in time, it is much worse. For starters, I had been demoted from Manager to Assistant Manager and then to Associate again... because my Migraines had become worse (from stress because COVID and  the mail system and all the mangers left and xyz) and i could not keep the minimum 50, then 40 hours. Despite being demoted, and less pay, I was responsible for neigh all the managment responsibilities at my location because there was no one else. For 11$ an hour. And then all the other less-senior managers from other locations also quit, because no one was making more than the average Mcdonalds employee. Very bad, all around.

I had to submit my resignation anyway, because we had an out-of-state move coming. And I was already being paid less, and expecting to take on the work of more than one salaried job. But before I submitted my resignation?

(Tw, injury)After two-three weeks of excruciating pain despite the visible damage to my finger being healed, and no increase of motor function, and also a strange mishape to my finger. I finally filed for workers comp, belatedly, and went on down to an urgent care. The deep injury, if you’re curious, had been caused by a tape gun; specifically, a customer trying to grab the tapefun from my hands anddesimating my hand, most expressly my poor fucking finger joint. And upon xray at the urgent care, they found a metal tooth from the tape gun in my finger. more specifically in my finger joint. quite literally grinding against my bone. doing serious damage to my joint. (I am now legally allowed to complain about pain and no one is allowed to tell me im complaining too much. broken off sharp metal tooth in my finger for nearly three weeks.

Surgery, obviously, to remove the sharp foreign body from my hand. It was a very quick surgery, actually. But to the point, my workers comp covered most of the injury. Most. Not all. expensive, like I thought, and i definitely couldnt afford it. but necessary.

 And then we found out the ‘scholarship’ covered less than a 16th of the overall tuition to the gradschool in new york despite it’s title of ‘full ride scholarship’.

New york fell through, and we would not be able to keep our then-current lease.

so now we have less than two weeks to find a new place. And all of our research and propsects were in another state we cold not afford to live. we had no time, and due o afformentioned text increases, out prior 1200... just does not exist. not for sale anywhere. If it does, we ‘technically’ make too much to afford it, because our combined annual income if I ‘pretend’ to still work at UPS is too high for rent control. (the irony is that we could barely afford 1200-1300 and yet somehow rent control says we make too much money for it). If I say I do not work for ups, which I dont, because i quit... well we dont meet minimum income.

Mostly, we’re screwed!

4 days before must-be-out-of-house, we find one option. 1200$ 2 bedroom that will allow our two cats. We do a fast walkthrough, because we dont have any options anyway. Place has infestations twofold, the maintenance guy is trying to fix 12 different holes in the walls, and we cant test the power or water because it isnt on yet and we cant really wait. Front door locks, has AC, theres an on-site laundry facility, has working fridge, sold. We mostly only interact with property manager, who I did like quite a lot, and he assured us he will help fix the issues and can get the place ready by our frantic date.

I move into apartment with all of our stuff. We rapidly find several, several issues. No smoke detectors, window (ground floor) with no lock and two that can’t even close all the way. Both of those things, some of you may know... are illegal. It was not the only illegal aspects, such as one room being incredibly unventalated, most of the lights not working with no other light sources, occasional plume of smoke from the fuse box, and (this is in florida) no netting on the windows. Things that are not included in the ‘illegal’ list but still very much problems: hidden mold (did you KNOW it’s not illegal for landlords to rent a property with mold?), and other fucking stupid shit. The real  show stopper, however, was that the apartment’s payment portal malfunctioned. We paid them the deposit the rent, everything... and it paid it back to my sibs account.

This is when we meet the actual landlord. Who is insane. She is incapable of texting legibly, and is almost incomprehensible over the phone. She does not know the landlord laws- which is her only job as a landlord- which she showed by telling us it’s our responsibility to provide smoke detectors, for example. (no, that’s illegal). She tries to back up this claim by saying it is stated in the lease we will provide the smoke detectors. Which proves she cannot fucking read a lease, either, because it does not say that in the lease, it says we are obligated to provide batteries for pre existing smoke detectors, and even if she had written that into the lease... it would still be illegal. it breaks housing codes. like a lot of other shit. Her excuse to all these issues was “well this isnt luxury housing.” Our windows not locking and you meeting builing code, lady, is not luxury, it’s minimum.

This whole thing is summed up with her ignoring all these issues and demanding we pay her. I tell her we did, because we did, but the portal doesnt work. She says that isnt her responsiblity, pay her again and make it work. I am speechless. It does not matter if im speechless, of course, because she never lets you get a word in edgewise and will simply talk over you, but anyway.

Obviously, only option or not, we cant fucking stay in this apartment. Legally, we cannot, and if we play along despite that, we wave our rights. And im sure if we give her money, she will try to keep that fucking despoit and declare our rent non refundable or some shit. So we declare that she broke our lease (illegally) and that we’re going to leave as soon as possible. She threatens to call the police because we’re scamming her- as if we get anything out of this. could kill her and feel no remorse. she gave me a crazy stress migraine that was not relieved by excessive stress panic attack or crying. 

We break the lease. With nowhere to live, we put all our shit in storage. more costs we cant afford. Insues a month of having no home. I go out of town for a while and bum a guest bedroom. Sib stays with partner.

We spend most of that month looking for somewhere to live. I burn through savings with no source of income- cant deliver outside of my Metro zone for shipt, and other issues with delivery, and I wont be in one place long enough to apply to work anywhere. Spend money on storage, on moving trucks getting shit back and forth, on ‘non-refundable application fees’ and on medication for the cat, and on follow up appointments and medication and treatment for my fucking hand.

some fucking asshole backs into my car on easter sunday. Not once- no, he backed into my car and then paused. surprised he is no longer backing up. tries to back up again, continuing to back into my car he is already hitting. pulls forward a little. backs up again. slightly louder crunch and this time he realizes what he’s done. Mind you i am on the fucking sidewalk less than 6 feet away from my car, walking to it, about to get into it. He looks me dead in the face and tries to leave the scene despite me trying to flag him down. Only stops because someone stepped out into the road in front of his fucking truck to stop him. Is drunk. fights insurance trading like hell. Takes about an hour to get it from him on threat of the cops.

ensues, while without home, an exausting insurance battle. drunk guy tries to claim the damage was prexisting. I have witnesses, and I also have a fucking picture of the back of his truck with pieces of my car stuck in his bumper. Eventually he gives up, and I spend stupid amount of time conversing with car insurance. My car is old. and it is also a saturn, which is a company that no longer exists. It is also not technically one saturn, but two saturns franken-steined together with different parts of two older saturns. Obviously, despite the damage being cosmetic, they want to declare my car totaled. not-drivable. Obvious unacceptable, nd even if i did, the value on my car is shotty and i’ll get nothing from them for it. dribble car is much more valauble. but because it’s cosmetic damage, on an old ass already costmetically ugly car... basically zip on pay out. not even enough to get the specific cosmetic damage fixed.

Hardly fucking matters, because the check... is now being held by the bank. When will i be allowed to have it? they dont know yet.

Technically, my fucking car isn’t okay to be driven yet. I have to wait on a new title to be delivered, take it to a dmv to be inspected and declared drivable, hope to god it passes, and then pay them for all this shit. The check, if i ever get it, will probably fucking pay for that. *thank god for insurance.* so glad i pay them for this. I will have a car that is not repaired and no money to repair it with. fuck. At least it’s mostly cosmetic, except for my slightly warped gas tank hatch that is now a struggle to get open.

We find an apartment. This is great. We have a place to live.

This means more moving fees.

so we’re back in orlando. I have no savings left. I have a bit of credit card debt I cant pay off, and we still need some essential shit to buy for this place. but hey, we’re not homeless. Place isnt perfect yet- has rats, might have roaches, neighbors are wild and loud, pretty sure theres an active drug dealer based on the weird activity in the parking lot at all hours day and night.

but we’re not homeless. and im back in my metro, so i can deliver, so I have a source of income again. Everything will be fine.

Check is still being withheld. car is still technically not supposed to be drivable. this is fine. I will make enough money to survive this month, wrack up a little bit more debt on the essentials we need, but thisll be fine for a month or two until better work... good thing i can still deliver.

Lived here for a week. Sibling’s car breaks down and needs repairs. uh oh!

The day we get my sibling’s car back from the mechanic’s? today? today?  Obviously, my car breaks down. Obviously. fuck.

There’s more. This is a mostly abridged highlight. Other details- such as the fact that I had to borrow money from someone to get even this far, and my very old cat needing a vet visit that i just cant fucking afford yet- are all involved. My hand still has poor mobility- yesterday someone commented “I thought you were right handed” because they noticed i dont use it to do things like pop the fucking water pressure cap off my car engine to refill it’s leaky collant tank. Our current fridge may or may not be cool enough to store dairy in, we arent sure yet. we still need to buy a fucking dryer, we dont have a means to wash/dry clothes yet, and I dont own a lot of clothing so I’ve been stretching one outfit over a week.

Look, 2022 is fucking killing me. At this point I need roughly 6000$ to magically make it out of may without debts in three different places. Obvious not feasible, and it would still put me out roughly nuetral with no money. So... whatever I can get. Preferable enough to get the fucking car fixed so i have income. And then hopefully rent so we don't end up homeless again and with an eviction on our record.

If you read all this, please. Even if you dont wanna donate for nothing in return, it’s literally only a dollar to commission a cute little mood board.

Fireworks and Fireflies

This is a little gift to Delaney and me because the world has been really fucking rough lately <3 We both need to feel better and It was just a little inspired by a convo we had, even if I am just a little scared of fireworks in real life.

@sin-sidejob I LOVE YOU WE DESERVE THE GOOD FEELINGS!! <3

Warnings: Uh,,, literally nothing actually? This is just some nice domestic fluff

Delaney was smiling, the air was warm, and the sky was filled with the soft light of the fireflies and the light sound of cricket chirps. But what was more was the sound of laughter, the nice feeling of grass under her feet, watching from her spot on the edge of the deck as Finn pulled Andre around the yard, watching him stumble behind them with laughs of his own as the two of them jumped with clasped hands trying to catch the little lightning bugs. It was almost enough to distract her from the noise of the door opening behind her... Almost.

Her head turned, meeting JR’s smile, it was wide even though it seemed just a small bit nervous. This had been her idea after all! Something she had been used to doing in her childhood, and it was something weirdly enough that Delaney had learned wasn’t something either JR or Finn had done despite the very large space they had to do it. Luckily though, JR was a sucker for her and anything he could to make her happy. So on he walked, the boxes on boxes of… honestly probably very illegal fireworks on the dark wooden table with a smile. He was absolutely beaming at her.

“Are you doing okay over there handsome?”

She stuck her tongue out as she watched him fiddle with the colorful boxes, normally something like this would probably have caused him to send an eye roll her way. But the look he gave her was nothing short of genuine love, something about her was just too adorable to him, he couldn’t help it! Even if he was mindlessly fiddling with countless explosives that may or may not have been recalled or deemed illegal.

He sighed from his spot near the table, hands moving from fiddling with packaging to the rolled-up sleeves on his white button-up. She hummed, her eyes basically fixated on his arms with an appreciative hum. He chuckled just a little bit under his breath, a small smile gracing his face.

“As good as I can be sweetheart-” There was a small pause as JR looked out onto the yard, his smile just a little wider as he watched Finn scream in joy further into the yard jumping around and clapping, they watched as he opened his palms and a little lightning bug flew to join the rest in the sky. It was so calm and yet so exciting. Something about how long it had been since the last time this had all happened had her bouncing her leg in anticipation.

“God we don’t come out here enough-”

Delaney snorted a little, her hand covering her mouth as she continued to laugh. “Yeah? And who’s fault is that?”

This time he did roll his eyes, he sat down in one of the chairs. “You think they’ll like them?”

JR looked back at Finn for a moment thinking, he looked back at Delaney with a shrug of his shoulders. “They’ll like the colors for sure, I know that much? The noise won’t be such an issue hopefully.”

Delaney sighed, she gave a much smaller wave as Finn smiled wide their hand waving rapidly at the two of them from their spot halfway down the yard. Andre waved to them as well, albeit not as excitedly as Finn! But that didn’t matter, his wave was cut off as Finn grabbed his free hand and took off in a full-on sprint towards them dragging him behind them. She snickered watching Andre stumble trying to keep up with the speed and energy that Finn was giving at the moment. They let go to jump onto the deck and hug JR, side-eyeing the fireworks immediately. He chuckled a little as he hugged back, “Got all the ones Delaney asked, one special for you though-”

Finn’s eyes lit up as they jumped to the side, scanning the table of brands they had never even heard of before. But their eyes lit up when they saw the one.

“YOU GOT ME A PURPLE ONE!?!” Finn had their face shoved in front of the box, reading over every line of text. “Do I get to light it? Please say yes please say yes, pleasesayyes-” 

The three people gathered around them snickered, JR had hauled himself up next to them. “If you want to, and as long as you’re careful-”

Delaney smiled “I’ll help you out cuttlefish don’t worry.”

Finn breathed out a small ‘sick’ as they sat the package down on the table where it began - They turned back to the yard with stars in their eyes “I fucking love summer-”

Andre snickered, “Your favorite season is fall?”

They shoved a hand near his face without even looking over “Not anymore-”

He let out a chuckle as they fell back into the chair. He climbed onto the deck after them with a bright smile, sitting next to them on the chair, hand running along their back as they continued lightly bouncing.

“I can’t believe we’ve never done this before, it feels like- like something we should have done before.”

JR chuckled a little ruffling up their hair before Delaney spoke up, “It’s right up your alley! It’s like mini arson-” Andre snorted a little bit but not even close to meeting the deafening laughter that was coming from Finn as JR shook his head just a little bit waving a hand at Delaney as if she was wrong. Even though she was not, and they all knew that.

The darkness had cloaked over the expansive yard, only lit by decorative lights that lined the edge of the porches and sides of the house. Soon to be lit by the wonder of pyrotechnics, specially picked out just for their viewing.

It had begun now, Delaney teaching the two of them how to safely light the fireworks and move out of the way just in case. It was honestly peaceful and joy-filled, contrasting with Finn's loud screams and cheers as they jumped on the grass dancing with Andre under the fireworks lighting up the sky. The night was great, the booming noise, the laughter, and especially the screams.

Delaney laughed as she lit her own firework, Finn falling back onto their ass with a scream in complete surprise.

It had calmed down a little bit now, JR and Delaney were still Slowly lighting off their own, the tinier ones still shining back into his dark eyes. She watched him look at the sky in awe, her hand gripping his.

“Y’know I don’t think we even did this as kids.”

She turned to look at him, “No? I think it was normal for us, summer was filled with nights like these.”

He hummed back to her, his eyes drifting from hers to the concrete area beside the porch where Finn was throwing poppers, currently chasing Andre with a handful of them laughing out threats as he dodged the ones that hit the ground.

“I think we should have done it sooner honestly, I would have given anything to have more of these moments with them.”

Delaney looked over at him, he was looking at their kid with so much love, they all looked so happy. He turned to face her again when he felt her hand place itself gently over his. He looks over, his eyes meeting hers. His expression is filled with love and peace, a contentedness filling his gaze. So at peace.

It was a good evening. The loud laughter of a family finally at peace, fireworks lighting up the night sky. Peaceful even if just for the night.

Ok so it’s my baby’s birthday soooo

@kageyamasbraincell  HAPPY BIRTHDAY  !!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ can’t wait to see you in a month ( fml it’s still a month ).

I love you sooo much. My special bokutobitch-bean™️, my TRIPLE 🅱️

I clearly lost any track and time on who’s your boo rn so I took Osamu ☀️ (I mean you’re simping for everyone either way)

Birthday mornings with Osamu

You wake up by something warm and fluffy on your face. Opening your eyes you're greeted  with the bright blue ones of your cat. “MIAUUUU” your cat Simba yells in your face. “Good morning to you too.” You groan and turn to the side to cuddle up to your boyfriend - but your face is met with the mattress. Well...he’s probably just in the bathroom and be back in a few minutes. About 10 minutes later he’s still not back, so you get up and start looking for him. Bathroom - no Osamu. Living-room - no Osamu. Kitchen - no Osa- you stop in your tracks as you see how messed up your kitchen is. There’s flour everywhere. You sigh and turn around to go back to bed when you see Simba on the kitchen table destroying the ribbons of two presents laying there. You’re about to put Simba in your arms as you hear the front door opening. The footsteps get closer to the kitchen and you hear some mumbling. You turn around, jut to be greeted by the sight of your boyfriend with a big paper bag in his arm, the keys in his hand and a big colourful bouquet in his other hand. His eyes wide open when he sees you standing there. “No. Go back to bed. You’re not supposed to be here.” He panics. He sets down the bag and the flowers and shoves you out of the room and back to your bed. “I - Osamu - “ you begin confused as fuck on what is happening right now. “No. stay here until I come to get you baby!” and he closes the door. You sigh and fall back in the bed.

Again you feel something on your face and you open your eyes again. Now you're met with the beautiful eyes of Osamu. He smiles down at you “Happy Birthday love.” he smiles and his thumb stokes over your cheek, while he leans downing kissing you gently. “Can I now go into the kitchen?” you ask and rub the sleep out of your eyes. “Yes sure - Sorry for that.” he awkwardly scratches his neck. He takes your hand in his and leads you to the kitchen. He stops to put his hands over your eyes, before you can enter the kitchen. “Osamuuu” you try to act annoyed but fail and start to laugh. “No. No complaining. Now take a step - good - and another... and the last one.” he puts his hands off your eyes and you look around the - now perfectly clean- kitchen. On the table next to the presets is the bouquet, Simba sitting next to it. There’re two sets of plates and cups. The cups already filled with Coffee and orange juice. On a plate in the middle of the table are tones of waffles. Osamu walks over to the fridge, while you walk over to the table. You hear the fridge close and turn around just to be met with a brightly smiling Osamu. His eyes sparkle as he holds out the cake he made for you. “Tadaaa” he smiles proudly. You look at him with big eyes “Can you put down the cake?” he does as you ask and the second he turns back to you, you jump in his arms and wrap yourself around him. He laughs and wraps is arms around you, holding you close. You nuzzle your head in his neck and mumble “thank you’s”. He puts you down and grabs your face is his hands, “No need to thank me baby and again H-A-P-P-Y-B-I-R-T-H-D-A-Y.” with every letter he places kisses all over your face, finally kissing your lips after the Y, pulling you into a hug again afterwards. “I’m so happy to have you in my life.” He mumbles into your hair. Osamu pulls away and kisses your forehead. “Let’s eat now, before the waffles get cold.”

Same motorcycle Yuu person from before, I am so sorry for the typos from before.

I was on my motorcycle all day and had very few breaks so, I was trying to hurry up typing. ^^''

But, motorcycle Yuu who is in a biker club(like me) and does poker runs to support things, charities, sa help centers, supporting helpful things and making the economy better. ^^

Except they get up at 6am and leave for the ride a bit, and doesn't get back until 6pm. They look dead, and as soon as they step into the dorm area or living room, they start to take off the 5 layers they have to wear to stay warm.

Consider a small side car for Grim. He even has a leather suit and helmet...
