#still ace as hell but DANG

[rosakuma]

DRDT EP 14 Thoughts(spoilers of course 😋)

I’m about to go insane

Okay for starters…..I’d like to apologize to the Hu nation and the Eden!cultprit truthers. To be fair, she was very sus before we clarified Nico’s murder attempt. To which damn Nico, I was trying to give you the benefit of the doubt only because it was strange how you held that wire, but it makes sense now knowing the reason. Man I feel awful for a lot of people here in this episode. Nico regrets trying to kill Ace even if they dislike him because he reminded them of the people who hurt Nico before(peers, teachers, and their father OOF). And now they gotta live with having “Almost murder” stuck to their name while also losing a potential friendship with Rose(we NicoRose shippers lost dang it). Poor Rose feeling guilty of her memory being out of shape(the poor girl is traumatized by remembering the clear deaths, I don’t blame her) and getting blames for it. But thank goodness my goat/best girl Teruko with some good old character development came in and reassured Rose that she is useful and it’s not her fault(Us TerukoXRoss shippers fricken WON!). David while still being an ass that I hate(albeit now feel more sympathetic towards) I feel bad for witnessing Arei’s body first….god no wonder why he’s so mad at the killer, I’m pissed at them too. And then there’s Ace….this episode turn me into the 1# Ace Markey defender. My poor man has been suffering this chapter and things keep getting worse for him. He pushes everyone away thanks to his paranoia, has a eating disorder no one notices which is hurting him, was ALMOST MURDERED with no one worried about him(hell Hu fricken defended his potential murder rather than reprimanding them!), and worse of all, the one person he thought who cared about him in this terrible place admitted he doesn’t care if he lives or dies….oh and now he’s being accused of killing Arei. F*ck Ace’s life is so tragic. Oh yeah speaking of the killer. EDEN HOW DARE YOU, I BELIEVED IN YOU!! She is 100% the murder and it makes me so sad and sick seeing how well she’s able to make Teruko take her side. She even hugged her like Min did(I am going to be sick). I will say, Arei would respect the hustle and manipulation though. Well done Eden, you impressed your would’ve been bestie. I might make another post about why Ace can’t be the killer unless someone beats me to it, but yeah it’s Eden. No way Ace is the killer and it sucks how David despite revealing his true colors is still able to manipulate everyone(bro gonna out do Kokichi Ouma man).

Here is my playlist that I listen to when I’m writing Twisters fic! ^_^

it includes a few songs from the movie, songs that remind me of the fics I’ve worked on, and some that I think the characters would listen to— mostly a lot of country and (as per my own headcanon) classic rock :0

Its also pretty long, so I’ve added little details abt why the song is on the playlist, and you can pick and choose what you want to listen to or skip the ones you already know :P

The fics in question for reference vvv

Getting Over It • Skip to Next Summer • Carry On

🦂Rusty Cage by Johnny Cash

Could apply to any of them— this song reminds me of Scott and Javi’s unhealthy relationship

🌌Skip to Next Summer by Homestyle Dinner Rolls

I’m sure you can tell which one this reminds me of— it even inspired the title! Lowkey I think it’s a must-listen if you’re really liking that fic

🪩Sharp Dressed Man 2008 Remaster by ZZ Top

This one is for Getting Over It lol, makes me think of the scene where Boone and Javi are going through Boone’s old clothes together

🌵Circle K Acoustic by Ricky Chilton

This one’s mostly for Skip to Next Summer bc that’s the fic where they spend the most time out in the middle of nowhere. I think Tyler would like this song lol

💀God’s Gonna Cut You Down by Johnny Cash

Javi listens to this song in Getting Over It :0 it makes him think about his guilt regarding the decisions he made in the past

🌾Arkansas by Chris Stapleton

This is one from the movie :) good for Skip to Next Summer because that fic includes storm chasing scenes with the same positive tone as the movie

⛪️The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie by Colter Wall

For Getting Over It bc it sort of reminds me of Javi’s business dealings in a metaphorical sense.

🍃Feelin’ Country by Thomas Rhett

Also from the movie. Sort of reminds me of the happier moments Boone and Javi have together in both Getting Over It and Skip to Next Summer

🎸Safari Song by Greta Van Fleet

One of the songs they listen to in Getting Over It <3 pretty dang perfect for their stupid situationship

🛤️Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma by Luke Combs

Of course I have to include this one!! I love it sm.

🍻C’mon Down by Poor Man’s Poison

Another one that Javi had on his playlist in Getting Over It

♥️Closer by Nine Inch Nails

Doesn’t really match the genre, but it really matches the way Javi thinks about sex in Skip to Next Summer. It’s sort of a double edged sword; he’s so obsessive about being “good enough” for Boone, he’ll ignore his own interests. Still, it’s not inherently a bad feeling for him, it’s just the way he’s programmed after having been taken advantage of for so long.

🔥Highway to Hell by AC/DC

Just for funsies!! I think Boone would love this song. He and Tyler definitely sing along to all their favorite songs on long roadtrips

🌩️Steal my Thunder by Connor Smith

Another from the movie— any country love song makes me think of them. The exciting new feeling it carries is reminiscent to the second year Javi and Boone have together in Skip to Next Summer

💌I wanna know by tea

Okay this is the odd one out 💀 it’s just really sweet and sad, and perfect for how Javi feels about Boone in Getting Over It. Like, they aren’t quite close yet, but he really wants to be

💋Kiss Me by Homestyle Dinner Rolls

More nonsense about Javi and Boone finding solace in one another regarding their respective unrequited feelings for Kate and Tyler. Every line is perfect as always. Like, “holding on until it breaks me” SHUT UP “I need to know what life is like without you in my head” SHUT THE FUCK UP

💥Dead End Road by Jellyroll

This is literally my favorite part in the whole movie Boone is so cute I love him with all my heart

☠️Come with Me Now by Kongos

This is a song that I think Tyler and the rest of the Wranglers would listen to (and have fun dancing to hehe)

💫Taco Bell by Homestyle Dinner Rolls

This song is perfect for Skip to Next Summer Boone/Javi ^_^ it’s so cute!

🪶Blackbird by The Beatles

Something something recovering from grief and learning to move on— omg Getting Over It what are you doing here??

🐍Greedy Man by Poor Man’s Poison

Another one about Javi being a little bit of a snake when it comes to business

✈️Too Easy by Tanner Adell

Another movie one lol. This one is super fun! The Twisters soundtrack really is my favorite :]

🦴Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi

Another one for them to listen to in the car— this one especially reminds me of Carry On, because the song was also featured in Supernatural and that show served as good inspiration for that fic

💕You Shook Me All Night Long by AC/DC

A song they listen to while cooking together in Getting Over It <3 also foreshadowing to when they fucking FUCK like 1 chapter later

☀️Salió El Sol by Don Omar

Just one more song from the movie :P

🦟American Kids by Kenny Chesney

I love this song <3 it doesn’t have a lot to do with the story that each fic tells, but rather it reminds me of the way I think Tyler and Boone grew up together

🌙Go All The Way by Raspberries

This song reminds me of Getting Over It Boone/Javi— tender and a little uncertain, but still very enthusiastic

🐾Sleeping on the Blacktop by Colter Wall

A song that Boone definitely loves. He is obsessed with cowboy stuff and songs like this are his favorite

🌸New Flesh by Current Joys

Okay nvm THIS is the odd one out lmfao— It reminds me of the way Javi feels in Getting Over It; like absolutely no one in the whole world cares about him. Also for the mention of staying awake all night to avoid having nightmares, that’s very Skip to Next Summer Javi

🌪️Ain’t in Kansas Anymore by Miranda Lambert

How could I not. But yeah, it really captures the draw of storm chasing that Boone feels in all my fics— especially Skip to Next Summer. Also, “You’re torn apart like a trailer park, but you still can’t wait ‘til I come back around” is soooo Boone/Javi coded you have no idea

🌺Sink the Pink by AC/DC

This song was mentioned early on in Skip to Next Summer, as one Tyler plays when they’re storm chasing and Boone is showing off for Javi

🐄Ghost Riders in the Sky by Johnny Cash

This song is in the movie ^_^ I love it

🥃Good Times Bad Times by Led Zeppelin

Applicable to all of the stories, but especially Getting Over It

🧨Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap by AC/DC

For the vibes mostly :P

🏜️Highway 61 revised by Dave Alvin

Another just bc I think it would be on Ty’s playlist

🧳Help! By The Beatles

For Getting Over It. Javi just needs help for the first time like ever and it freaks him out

🎣Already Had It by Tucker Westmore

More dumb country love songs from the movie <3

💰Providence by Poor Man’s Poison

A lot of Poor Man’s Poison songs remind me of Javi’s business bullshit

💞Tear Us Apart by Sam Barber

This is a rlly good one for Boone and Javi’s relationship in Skip to Next Summer ^_^

🔪In Hell I’ll Be in Good Company by The Dead South

Some more country music for singing along to in the truck

🚪Never Left Me by Megan Moroney

“Came back a different me, but it’s good to see you’re still you” come onnnn come on come on oh my god. “I bet you knew that I’d be back the day you watched me go” COME ONNNNN “now here you are all open arms” RAAAAHHHH (its giving Skip to Next Summer. Javi feels most at home when he’s with Boone ❤️)

🛞Should I Stay or Should I Go by The Clash

This one inspired the title for the first chapter of Carry On because it’s upbeat tempo reminds me of Addy, but it also sort of reminds me of the unsure yet playful tone of the first little bit of Skip to Next Summer ^_^

🍒Cherry Pie by Warrant

This is one that I almost included in my chapter titles lineup for Carry On— maybe that’s a little bit of spoilers for the direction that story is headed oops 👀

Anyway that’s all! Tagging @amelia-mariee because you replied to my initial post <3

Also pls lmk if any of the links are mixed up 💀

Yuu can do it!

Part 61

First - Previous - Masterlist - Next

Crowley half-hid behind Ito. Ito had already passed out everyone’s food, but no one seemed particularly eager to eat right now.

Sucks for them. Ito, who was long since used to the Headmaster’s behavior, twirled pasta around their fork as they listened to the man’s attempts at excuses:

“ – and I had, unfortunately, failed to mention that the ghost I usually task with maintaining the school’s temperature will be unable to help this year.”

“What if we get a different ghost to help, sir?” Jack asked. Good on him for trying to be at least somewhat amicable.

“... but then I have to pay more people?” Crowley said, in a tone that suggested the horror he felt at the idea was akin to the average person’s fear of being murdered in cold blood. “I’m already going to be paying Ito, since they never clock out. I might as well get something from it.”

Ito didn’t bother pretending to look sheepish. “Pay me more and maybe I won’t lie about my hours.”

“Don’t claim false hours and maybe I’ll give you a raise,” Crowley countered.

Ito huffed. A stalemate. Life sucks.

“Why is the ghost you usually use busy?” Grim asked.

“He’s on paternity leave.”

“Oh, dang,” said Deuce, frowning.

“Exactly,” Crowley said, nodding solemnly. “See, Ito-chan? It seems as if I have no choice in the matter.”

If you watched carefully, you could see all of Ito’s friends’ expressions darken at the ‘-chan’ honorific.

Crowley made a pitiful squeaking sound, like a mouse being trodden on.

“Hey, Ito,” Ace said, his chin in his hand. “How long has he been calling you that?”

Ito didn’t hear his question. Ito’s mind had caught on the words ‘paternity leave’ several sentences ago and had been buffering ever since. They stared at Crowley, their eyes wide. “... ghosts can have kids? How? How? They’re dead?”

Crowley cleared his throat awkwardly. “Let’s… say it’s the miracle of love and let it go, yes? Let’s talk about something else.”

Ito didn’t want to let it go. They needed answers. How the hell can a ghost have kids? Was it with another ghost? A human? Was necrophilia still a crime in a place where ghosts were entirely capable of consent? Did it count as necrophilia at all?

… is this what it’s like in Enma’s head all the time? That must be exhausting.

Pass.

They set their fork in their now-empty bowl with a quiet clatter.

“He’s not going to change his mind,” Ito said, sighing. “Chill out.”

~

Their friends, decidedly, did not ‘chill out’. As Ito found out the next day, when said friends showed up at their house in the early hours of the morning with surprisingly large duffel bags on their backs.

“You guys have way more luggage than I thought you’d have,” Ito said, barely glancing up from where they were nursing one of their last Cokes. They had waited just a hair too long for the soda to go on sale before the break, and someone else had gotten to them first. Enma swore up and down that he wasn’t at work when it happened. He should hope they never caught him if he was lying – they were on the brink of having to try the Pepsi Kuroki had stolen from Savanaclaw, and if they ever had to drink Pepsi then the person responsible would surely have to meet their demise.

“Yeah,” Kuroki said, frowning. “You’re just going home, right? Shouldn’t you have stuff to wear there?”

“We do,” said Deuce. He pulled his duffel bag off his back and opened it, revealing it to be empty. “Alright, Ito, get in.”

Ito stared at him, blankly. “No?”

“This is the only way we can help you guys go on vacation,” Ace explained, semi-patiently.

Kuroki was watching Ito. Too carefully. Ito wasn’t even sure why.

They decided to quietly file the information away for later.

Because, right now, they had to deal with… whatever this was.

They frowned to themself, peering at the bag. “I dunno… I don’t think that this is going to hold up under my weight.”

Enma nodded along. “And, besides, what about me?”

Jack held out his duffel bag again.

“... I’m with Ito on this, I don’t think I can fit in that thing,” Enma said. He wrapped an arm around Kuroki’s shoulders, dragging him into his side, as if scared that Kuroki might fall into one of the bags and get carted away by their friends if he didn’t keep an eye on him.

From the way that their friends were eyeing them up, as if considering stuffing them into the bags despite their protests, it honestly wasn’t too far-fetched a thought.

“You’re flexible,” Jack said, stubbornly. “And it’s just for a few minutes. Get in.”

“I dunno…” Enma said, his smile turning a hair awkward. “I think I’ve been overdoing it lately. I’ve been super sore the past few days, I don’t want to push it.”

Jack cleared his throat. “I –... was joking.”

Enma blinked. “Oh. Really?”

“Yeah. Ito’s the only one that we have to hide, since they’re the only one that the Headmaster is forcing to stay on campus,” Deuce pointed out.

Ito, who wasn’t particularly fond of being taken to a secondary location, stepped behind Enma for protection.

Unfortunately for them, Enma seemed to be genuinely considering the idea, the traitor.

“Nah,” Ace said, shaking his head. “The Headmaster’ll notice something’s up if he sees Kuroki and Enma coming with us. Those three never leave each other alone.”

“Yeah, they were fighting for, like, four days straight, but they still slept in the same bed the whole time,” Grim said. “No one’s gonna believe they’d be chill with leaving each other for two whole weeks.”

“We only got one guest room,” mumbled Kuroki.

“The AC was too good in Savanaclaw, I was cold,” Ito said.

“We fell asleep while we were scheming,” Enma said. “Could happen to anybody.”

If Ace, Deuce, and Jack were going for the world record for the most exaggerated eye roll, then they definitely managed to get it. If they weren’t, then they were just being rude in the face of the Yuus’ very real and valid reasons for why they had no choice but to share a bed in Savanaclaw.

“Just… promise you guys won’t do any stupid shit while we’re gone,” Ace gave in, reluctantly.

The Yuus looked at each other.

Ito crossed their arms over their chest. “Wild thing to hear from one of the guys who made a deal with Ashengrotto-senpai of all people.”

“How were we supposed to know?!” Deuce asked.

“They are the most mafia-esque people ever,” Kuroki said.

Ace flipped them off.

“Very mature,” Enma sighed.

“Just because you don’t curse doesn’t mean that you’re any better than us!”

“I mean, not necessarily, no,” Enma said, smirking. “But I am better than you. It’s just unrelated to the swearing.”

Ito listened to their petty argument, smiling bemusedly, even as they mulled over the idea in their mind.

Outside of maintaining the fires, they really wouldn’t have much to do over the break, would they? No school, basically no work, a little bit of homework that could be finished in an afternoon or two if they really put in the effort…

They could just… relax.

~

“Ruggie Bucchi-senpai, give me the Coke or else,” Ito said, smiling sweetly.

Ruggie cleared his throat, awkwardly, tossing their phone back to Kuroki. “Cheers, guys, see you next year!”

And then he booked it.

Ito hissed a curse under their breath and gave chase, even if they knew it was probably useless. Burdened with a million coolers and duffel bags of food or not, Ruggie Bucchi was always inhumanly quick on his feet in every sense of the word. Still, they chased him right up until the boy hopped through the mirror.

They might have chased him further, but a hand hooked in the back of their shirt and yanked them back.

Ito smiled innocently at Crowley, batting their eyelashes. “Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention to where I was going.”

“Mmm,” Crowley hummed, not an outright disagreement, before pointing for them to go back to their friends.

Ito trudged back over, sulking. Ace patted them on the shoulder in a mockery of comfort as they passed him to snatch Grim off of Kuroki’s shoulders for comfort. Emotional Support Animals for the win. “There. Can’t say I didn’t try.”

“Did you really, though?” Jack asked.

Enma snickered. “Give us a break, it’s not like we had a lot of time to come up with something.”

“Yeah, and it’s not like your idea was much better,” Kuroki said. “Doubt you could have even carried us, your hands are pretty full…”

Jack shrugged, careful not to jostle the potted plant in his hand. “She’s been struggling, lately, I need to take her home for monitoring.”

“... the cactus is a she?” Deuce asked.

“Did you name her?” Kuroki said, smirking.

“Of course she’s a woman,” Jack said, blatantly ignoring Kuroki. “See these flowers? They have pistils. Therefore, she’s a woman.”

Enma peered at the plant, interested.

Kuroki crossed his arms over his chest. “I notice that you didn’t deny naming her. What’s her name, Jack? Jill, perhaps?”

“Do you guys hear anything?” Jack asked. “I think there’s a gnat flying around.”

“I can’t believe that they’re even gendering the plants, now,” Ito said, shaking their head in disappointment.

Grim shook his head in solemn agreement. Ah, Ito loved having impressionable children around.

“The people gendering the plants are scientists?” Jack said, incredulously.

“Wouldn’t they be ‘sex’-ing the plants? If anything, Jack is the one ‘gendering’ them,” Ace pointed out.

“Jack,” Ito gasped. “That’s so messed up. And here I thought you were woke.”

“There’s no winning with you guys,” Jack groaned. He hugged his cactus closer to his chest. “I’m leaving.”

“Don’t you mean ‘We’re leaving’?” Kuroki called.

They were still snickering over the misfortune they had caused their friend as they waved him off. They were terrible people. But, consider, it was funny, sometimes, so their constant torment of random people is entirely justified.

Ito smiled as they tugged the phone from Kuroki’s hands. Kuroki was, apparently, trying to download Magicam again. He’d been trying off and on since yesterday, ever since the Headmaster explicitly asked them not to use it. Unfortunately for him, the Headmaster had put some kind of parental lock on the phone, and attempting to download anything that used too much data would end in the app simply… disappearing.

And, besides, the phone was old, and Crowley had broken the camera at some point, so it wasn’t like the app would do them much good.

Cater would just have to be disappointed.

Speaking of.

“Ito-chan!” his voice chirped. “Is this a dream? You have a phone?”

Ito smiled, handing it over. “It’s probably a nightmare, to be honest.”

“True, I hate to think about what you three will get up to now that you have free access to the internet,” Cater said, absently.

“Would you rather we find things out by experimenting?” Enma asked.

Cater shuddered at the very thought. “No. Nevermind. Let me just give you my number real quick –... oh, you already have it? How?”

“I stole Ace’s phone for his contact list.”

“Ah,” said Cater, nodding sagely. “Makes sense.”

They both ignored Ace cursing at them. His opinion was irrelevant.

“All we need now is Azul, and maybe the Leech twins,” Kuroki said, nodding along. “We already have all of the staff members’ numbers thanks to Crowley, so Enma has Sam’s number, but I need my boss’ –.”

“Oh!” said Cater. “You don’t have Trey’s number. Hold on, I’ll add that.”

“Must’ve forgotten about him,” Ito said, innocently. “Whoopsies.”

“I heard my name?”

Ito’s expression dropped. They turned to look at Trey, who looked just as exasperated at the sight of them.

“Nothin’ bad, don’t worry. Just adding your contact info to the Yuus’ phone,” Cater said.

“They got phones?”

“Phone, singular,” Ace corrected.

“Ah, that checks out. Either way, guys, welcome to the modern age,” Trey said.

Ito smiled. “We aren’t poor by choice, senpai.”

“Guys,” Deuce groaned, stepping between them. “It’s Winter Break, yeah? Why don’t you give it a break?”

“Absolutely not,” Trey laughed, lightly.

“Why would I be nice to him? He has green hair.”

“What’s wrong with green hair?” Trey asked, absently running his fingers through it.

“Oooooh, you don’t know,” Ito said, shaking their head. “I don’t want to be the one to break it to you. Figure it out for yourself.”

“Ito,” Kuroki chided.

Ito pouted.

After a few seconds, Kuroki caved: “Stop teasing the man about his hair. You know he can’t help it. No need to rub it in.”

Ito grinned. “Shit, you’re right, my bad.”

Enma sighed. Ito and Kuroki shrieked in unison as they were cuffed over the back of their heads. “Sorry about them, senpai.”

“Don’t worry about it. With Ito as his only role model, it’s inevitable that Kuroki-kun might act out.”

“Trey, remind me, how many of your friends have Overblotted?”

Deuce seemed to regret standing between them. He stepped out of the way.

Unfortunately for Ito and Trey, who were suddenly extremely tempted to punch each other in the face, they were held back. Enma grabbed Ito from behind and physically dragged them backward a few steps, and Cater threw his arm in Trey’s way.

Ito thought this was unfair, since Trey could absolutely take out his magical pen and snipe Ito from across a room if he wanted. They were at such a disadvantage.

But Riddle caught Trey’s wrist before an attempted murder could occur.

“Come along, you said you would help me talk to my mother.”

A couple of complicated expressions flickered over Trey’s face, before he sent Riddle a soft smile. “I did, yeah. You ready to go?”

“Can I come, too?” Cater asked. “I don’t want to go home, my sisters are gonna be a pain.”

“As long as you’re fine helping out around the patisserie,” Trey shrugged. “I’m sure my parents would love the extra help.”

Cater grimaced. “Don’t bakers have to wake up suuuuuper early? Pass. If I have to be run ragged, then I’d at least like a full night’s sleep to make up for it.”

“If you guys don’t want to go home,” a new voice cut in. Floyd sauntered over, a wide grin playing across his lips. “You could always stay here!”

Riddle’s hackles raised immediately. “Don’t give advice on things you don’t know about.”

“Awwwww,” Floyd complained. “Just say you’ll stay. It’s boring spending every new year with the same people.”

“You’re staying too?” Enma asked, his eyebrows knitting. “Why?”

“Does the Headmaster have something on you, too?” Kuroki asked, almost sounding concerned.

Floyd laughed. “Nah.”

He did not elaborate.

Jade, however, did: “We live in the far northern reaches of the Coral Sea. At this time of year, the whole surface is covered in ice floes.”

(Enma jumped in surprise. He looked like he was tempted to hide behind Ito and Kuroki. Considering he was a good head taller than them, this would not have worked. So, he was stuck staring at the ground, his face red, his lips pursed in annoyance. Ito would consider helping him in some way, but they had been stopped from murdering Trey, so they weren’t feeling particularly generous at the moment.)

“What he said. It’s hard to go home, and cold, and boring, so we just don’t. And, ‘sides, Azul wanted to stick around and analyze that potion you gave us.”

“Did Ito make it? Don’t drink it,” Deuce advised.

“I haven’t messed up a potion in weeks!” Ito said.

“We haven’t made any new potions in weeks, either,” Ace reminded them. “We were reviewing for the tests.”

How dare he call out their lie by omission? They sulked.

“Do you know what the potion is, yet?” Kuroki asked, not to be distracted.

Floyd, for once in his life, hesitated?

This was, perhaps, not a good sign.

Jade cleared his throat. “Azul wishes to analyze the potion more to ensure he gets the correct results.”

“What did you guys make?” Cater said, laughing incredulously.

“A ‘bioweapon’,” said Grim. “Whatever that is. Makes things disappear. Don’t know what the big deal is, I can do the same thing with my fire!”

Whether or not Grim was intentionally bringing attention to the other mysterious liquid the Yuus had in their possession, it was unclear. Regardless, it was extremely helpful, because everyone was immediately distracted (whether they were aware of it or not) by the slightly problematic bioweapon Ito had accidentally created.

The horrified stares they got were enough to drag a smile to their face despite their efforts to look like a sweet, innocent person who would never make nor keep a weapon of mass destruction.

Riddle looked at Ito. “When we return from break, remind me to tutor you in Alchemy.”

Ito would not be doing that, thanks.

They smiled. “Sure thing, senpai! Hope everything goes well back home!”

Trey’s lips curled into something cheeky as he lifted a hand in a wave. “I’ll make sure to remind him for you, in case you forget.”

“Aren’t you. So. Nice,” Ito gritted out. “Good luck out there, Trey. Or, as we say in theater: break a leg!”

Trey’s eye twitched. “Thanks, but I’d rather not have a repeat of that experience.”

If you don’t leave soon, you will, Ito thought, but they decided it would be unwise to say that aloud.

Trey and Riddle left.

Their friend group seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Ito raised an eyebrow. “I have some impulse control, you know.”

“I’m honestly just waiting for the news to come out you two committed a murder-suicide,” Cater said.

Ito frowned. “Why would I commit suicide after murdering him? I feel like that kind of defeats the purpose of murder…”

“It’s like when the Joker kills Batman and realizes he has nothing to live for anymore,” Ace explained.

“... I’m Batman in this scenario,” Ito decided.

“I don’t believe that that is much better, Ito-san,” Jade said.

“Agree to disagree.”

Cater snickered, and then patted Ito on the head. “I should be heading out, too. I’ll send some pictures over during break!”

Ito hummed in acknowledgment, and Cater was off.

“So, you four’re sticking around for the break?” Floyd said, smiling. “That’s cool. You should come over to Octavinelle, it’d liven the place up a little.”

“No thanks,” said Enma, who had decided that the best way to deal with Jade’s existence was to simply look anywhere else.

“I dunno…” said Kuroki, frowning thoughtfully. “No real reason to, I don’t think. Ramshackle’s fine.”

“Are you sure about that?” Jade asked. He had taken to trying to step into Enma’s line of sight. Enma was steadily sinking towards the floor to escape. Despite this, Jade’s voice was perfectly level as he said, “The campus tends to get heavy snow over during the break, and the Ramshackle Dorm is not properly insulated.”

Oh no. The cold. Short people’s biggest weakness. Outside of stupidly high shelves.

“So, is the room you’re offering free?” Kuroki asked.

“I believe we could arrange a free room, yes,” Jade said. “Provided you four entertain everyone.”

Ah, what a kind, non-threatening offer!

“Do you have Coke in Octavinelle?” Ito asked.

“Uhhhh…” said Floyd. “I dunno. The Lounge serves either Coke or Pepsi. They’re both brown. Are they really that different?”

“Yes.”

Jade smiled. “We serve Coke.”

“I’m sold,” Ito said.

Enma groaned. Loudly.

“... we haven’t even left yet and they’re already making bad decisions,” Ace lamented, his head tipping forward to rest against Deuce’s shoulder.

“You could always stay, too, if it really bothers you that much, Kani-chan.”

Ace and Deuce genuinely seemed to consider it. But, whether it was some kind of complex PTSD from working in the Lounge with the Leech twins or the natural human urge to spend as little time at school as possible, they decided against it:

“Sometimes true Parenthood is allowing your stupid children to make bad decisions,” Deuce said, eventually.

“They must fuck around to find out,” Ace agreed, nodding sagely.

“Last call for the Queendom of Roses!” Crowley said. Pointedly looking their way.

Ace and Deuce grimaced.

“Promise you’ll call us if you need help,” Ace said.

“It’s two weeks, guys, we’re not that bad,” said Enma.

Kuroki sighed. “Don’t jinx us.”

There was a beat of awkward silence. Even Jade and Floyd seemed to back off, silently creeping into the background, only noticeable thanks to the goosebumps on Ito’s arms, warning them of the eyes on the back of their head.

“Don’t miss us too much,” Ito said.

Ace snorted. “Please, I’m about to have the most relaxing two weeks of my life.”

Deuce was slightly more genuine, bumping his shoulder against Enma’s. “Happy Holidays, yeah?”

And then they disappeared through the mirror.

“... it’s a lot quieter now that they’re gone,” Kuroki noted, frowning just slightly.

“Yeah! Good riddance!” Grim said, quickly, as if he was trying to convince himself just as much as them.

Kuroki lifted a hand to scratch the monster behind the ears.

“So, when will the new room be prepped?” Ito asked, turning their head to raise an eyebrow at Jade and Floyd.

Jade smiled, all teeth. “It should be ready by tomorrow. Please do be patient.”

“Yeah. We’ll go set it up, now. See you!” Floyd said, cheerfully.

Jade bowed for just a moment before turning to leave with his brother.

The Ramshackle kids watched them go, more than a little concerned about the booby traps they would definitely find in their room.

“... I need Jade Leech-senpai dead,” Enma said, once he was sure their seniors were out of earshot.

Ito choked on their Coke. A bit of it dribbled down their chin. (What a waste…)

“Don’t you like him? Why do you need him dead?!” Kuroki asked.

“Exactly. He’s hot. Therefore, he needs to go.”

Ito sighed. “You’re being very big and brave about the schoolboy crush you have, Enma.”

“Thanks. I know.”

“Guess this is still better than you dating him…” Kuroki decided, crossing his arms over his chest. “You have my permission to attempt murder. Just make sure it’s impossible to trace back to you, ‘cuz I’m pretty sure they’re actually mafia members.”

“... I’m sorry, what?”

~

Ito opened their eyes the next day, and was mildly pleased to find that they hadn’t jolted awake. Usually, Enma or Kuroki would wake them, whether that be for work or school, and they would be forced to clamber out of bed, cursing whichever body part they had hit… assuming they even had to get out of bed themself – Kuroki was prone to pushing them onto the floor whenever they were too hard to wake.

This was, objectively, much better.

They were still tired, though.

They pulled a numb arm from beneath Kuroki’s head, rubbing sleepy eyes.

“Huh. So they can wake up on their own,” Enma said, lightly, sounding a little smug.

Kuroki cursed under his breath. They must have made a bet on it.

“Grim’s still asleep! You haven’t won yet!”

Ito yawned and turned to flop over onto Enma, hugging him like a body pillow.

“... it still counts as me winning if they fall asleep again,” Enma said, quickly.

Kuroki didn’t seem to care about this. Ito felt a body press closer to their back.

“Why’d you choose him?” whined Kuroki.

Ito groaned. It was too early in the morning (they staunchly ignored that it might not actually be morning anymore) to deal with Kuroki’s issuesTM. Couldn’t the mental illness just rest for, like, a minute?

“It’s ‘cause you’re bony,” Ito said, flatly. “Bulk up more and I’ll cuddle with you just as much.”

“... are you trying to manipulate me into eating more? I’m not even underweight!”

Ito disagreed. Kuroki was all skin and bones.

They snuggled closer to Enma. “Does it matter if I’m manipulating you? As long as you eat more…”

“It matters to me!”

“I’m not going to lose you to starvation of all things,” Ito said, their eyes slipping closed once again.

Kuroki went silent.

Say what you will about Ito’s methods. They got results.

They smiled to themself as they drifted back to sleep.

~

Ito hummed as they carefully knotted Enma’s scarf around his neck. If he continued to insist that he didn’t need it, then they would simply ensure he couldn’t take it off.

“You’re just wearing an aesthetic sweater,” Enma accused. “I’m doing better than you!”

“I’m not going outside,” they said, rolling their eyes.

Kuroki paused where he was struggling to zip up his jacket through his mittens, sending them a wide-eyed look. “You’re not coming with us? Why not?!”

“Because it’s cold,” they said, rolling their eyes. “I intend on spending the rest of the break curled up under some blankets, with a cup of hot cocoa.”

“You’ve spent enough time in bed already,” said Grim.

“You slept longer than me,” Ito said, incredulously.

“Awwww, but Itoooooo,” Enma sulked. “We want to spend time with yoooouuuu.”

“Then you can do it inside.”

“... Enma. Stop giving me puppy eyes. I’m trying not to freeze.”

“Kuroki. Don’t join him. You’re supposed to be on my side!”

“Grim! Come ON!”

~

Ito grumbled under their breath as they pressed their face into the crook of Enma’s neck to try and shield their nose from the cold. Enma had devised a ‘compromise’ which entailed physically picking them up and carrying them outside.

“I hate you both,” Ito said.

“You could hate me more,” Enma said, lightly.

“... don’t you fucking dare.”

“Well, now I have to.”

Ito screamed as they were dropped into a snowdrift.

And then immediately jumped back up, hopping onto Kuroki’s back for protection from the cold.

Kuroki, who desperately needed to eat more, crumpled under the new weight. They both went sprawling into the snow.

At least Ito now had someone to join them in their misery.

And, so, Enma was forced to carry two shivering friends as punishment for causing every problem ever. Frustratingly, Enma seemed perfectly content to do so.

Ito and Kuroki met eyes beneath Enma’s chin, conspiring.

“Grimmmm,” Ito called, sitting up slightly to look at the monster, who was floating along, perfectly content. Despite the fact that the monster no longer had fur, he was still a fire demon of sorts, so he was fine. “Ayudanos?”

Grim blinked. “Ok. Sure. How?”

Enma squinted suspiciously. “Why are you talking in Spanish?”

“Because I miss my home country, and Grim understands me, so why shouldn’t I?” Ito said, smiling innocently, before turning their attention to Grim again. “Lanzarle la nieve.”

“At who?” Grim said, happy to have an excuse to throw snow at anyone, it seemed, as he was quick to head toward the ground. Enma glanced between the two of them. “What does ‘lanzar’ mean?”

“Enma, por favooooor,” Ito said.

Enma shrieked as a lump of snow (it couldn’t really be considered a ‘snowball’, as Grim hadn’t put any real effort into actually shaping it) hit him in the back of the head.

In his surprise, he dropped Ito and Kuroki into the snow.

Ah, Ito had not thought this through perfectly.

This must be the ‘brain freeze’ people often speak about.

And it was about to freeze even more!

They sat up slowly, their sweater already soaked through, shivers running up and down their spine as they turned to look at Enma, who was frantically trying to stop ice from slipping beneath his jacket.

A pile of snow dropped onto their head, and they whirled around, their mouth agape, to find Kuroki glaring at them.

“Should have done this when we were closer to the house,” he said.

Yes, that would have been smarter. Now, they would have to trudge inside while freezing to death, because there was no way Enma was going to carry them again.

Were they ever going to admit that? No!

They tackled Kuroki into the snow.

The two of them wrestled in the snow for a solid few minutes, shoving as much ice as they could down each other’s clothes, cursing each other out.

Until they caught on to Enma’s snickering.

They stopped cold.

“I forgot that we had a common enemy,” Ito said, pushing themself to their feet, using one hand to brush a bit of snow from their sweater, offering the other to Kuroki.

Kuroki stood as well, smiling evilly, shaking his head in an attempt to get rid of the ice that had clumped in his hair. “Indeed. The one who actually started things.”

Enma seemed to be reconsidering whether he wanted to be outside with his friends on a terrible winter’s morning.

Which they, of course, wanted to make worse.

“Grim?” Enma called. “Help?”

“Nah, I want to watch.”

Enma turned around, running away as fast as he could.

Unfortunately for him, the snow was hard to trudge through, and so long as Ito and Kuroki stayed right behind him they could simply use the path he had already made. They had no problems catching up to him.

Ito caught him by the scarf and yanked him backward.

~

“I think we lost Grim to the snow gods,” Enma said, largely unconcerned.

Which was fair. If Grim was already dead, then it probably wouldn’t hurt him to get too cold. Maybe freezing to death would give him a power-up. Like Mario getting a Fire Flower, but instead Grim got to add ice powers to his usual skillset.

Ito wanted to care enough to look for Grim, but they simply didn’t have the energy to. They flopped back in the snow, panting softly, their breaths steaming in front of their face.

Enma, who somehow still had energy, was making snow angels.

Kuroki flopped on top of Ito. Neither of them were any warmer than the snow, but it was worth a shot.

“I hate the cold,” Kuroki said.

Ito gave a vague grunt of agreement.

“At least you’re not cold anymore,” Enma said, brightly.

“That’s a symptom of frostbite,” Ito said, rolling their eyes.

“Or, a sign that you’re not being a pussy anymore,” said Enma.

Ito and Kuroki’s shoulders jumped. They looked at each other with wide eyes, and sat up to look at their friend. Who was still just… casually making snow angels. As if he hadn’t just broken out of one of his main character traits for a second there.

“Did – did you just swear?” Kuroki said.

“I would never,” said Enma, smirking.

“Yes, you did!” Ito said.

“No one will ever believe you.”

~

The three teens sat huddled around Grim, in a weird little amalgamation, each person’s limbs bleeding into the others’ under the blankets. Grim complained, loudly, about being used as a personal space heater, but the fact that he was purring under all of the hands petting him and kisses being pressed to his head suggested that he was, perhaps, just being a little dramatic.

3,12,17,30?? I think for the music asks :3

3) we built this city by starship. i have no idea why maybe it’s the intro? just vibes it feels really upbeat to me. i thought of it bc it was the first song my family played in the car when we went to hawaii and that was pure summer vibes (although ironically i don’t think it was summer yet). anyways fun song i love it :]

12) oh dang i have to choose one uhhhh the first one that came to mind was back in black by ac/dc. that song is great actually maybe i’ll add it to my playlist i should go through the songs i used to like i still like a ton of them especially that general genre i could prob rant about this a lot more or not really rant but ish anyways if you want to hear it text me or smth

17) some mcr song maybe uh i remember we did give em hell kid once and that was fun idk i’d do pretty much any song that i like but we should do that again sometime it’s been a while

30) this is really hard but one song that comes to mind is iris (by the goo goo dolls). every single one of the lyrics resonates with me but especially the chorus “and i don’t want the world to see me / cause i don’t think that they’d understand” and the intro/first verse(?) “and i’d give up forever to touch you / cause i know that you feel me somehow / you’re the closest to heaven that i’ll ever be / and i don’t want to go home right now” i could yap a tiny bit more about that but don’t want to do it on tumblr so if you’re interested ask me. also honorable mention for this question is something just like this by the chainsmokers and coldplay, just bc it resonates with me in a similar was to iris. okay there we go thank you for coming to my ted talk :]

[chaosduckytoast12]

Rant you don't have to listen or reblog or anything

I currently identify as Bi, Ace, whatever the heck gender (all pronouns) and I've had multiple... Idk what to call them I've heard people call them "squishes" but that sounds either like a 2000s yogurt product or sensory hell and at school there's this boy (let's call him "fancy hat" since that's what his name means) who's pretty nice and I really want to be friends with him, problem is Fancy hats popular and I'm not and he's supposedly dating a popular girl who I stopped being friends with over the summer, good news is that when I go to secondary school he's going to the same school as me and she's not. Today during break he came up to me and my friends and was like "mind if I hang out with you" and we didn't mind but problem was I was talking about @peppidableppi and me's DND campaign session last night and I just so happened to mention HUSKERDUST (side eye you know who you are identify yourself) and the topic immediately switched to Hasbin Hotel of all things and my friend group accidentally forgot he existed and I got really worried I messed up, later me and him talked a bit because I missed picture day so I wasn't in the class photo so he forgot to make and Valentine's candy exchange card for me so he gave me some twizzlers and I lied and said I liked twizzlers more anyway for no gods dang reason!!! Then his Pokemon Violet game card went missing and I tried to help him find it but it's still missing! And then when I passed out my handwritten exchange cards I asked my friend for help and she made sure I had his card in my pile to pass out and I asked why and she won't tell me and she's not replying to my texts in the group chat!?! And yesterday I dyed my hair and I'm cutting it real short in a couple days, anyways viautqutatuUtautsiysjixuofswiwjaorjsnjdownamzhennxksnamalqpuaifwkhzudwnalowpqieutnsnqbzbxmzpdnemaofnsofhenksjdmwoajsdj

[our-oriented-aroace-experience]

I probably won’t share much of my own experiences on this blog outside of the occasional post that I really want to write a response to, and this is one of those scenarios!

As a disclaimer, I’d like to note that I’ve been become more disconnected from my culture throughout the years, so I won’t try to explain the connections to broader Chinese culture and society and how I’ve been raised. I’ll just talk about my experiences and maybe a bit more!

TW for mentioned outing below the cut, at the paragraph beginning with “Coming out is already hard to begin with”, and ending with “IT WAS A SITUATION”

I’m Chinese-Canadian and grew up in a predominantly Chinese area.

Growing up, my parents never exactly talked about romance or sex, and never discussed their relationship with me at all. They were also never very “physical” (like kissing, handholding, that kind of stuff). I never questioned it until I started to see romance and parents in media and thought “Is there something going on with them?” Nope! They’re chill. I just didn’t know that was common among Chinese diaspora! (I could go on a tangent about media rep but I just don’t Feel like it right now lol)

My Chinese friends and their families also never really talked about romance (but in a romance-negative kind of way, which I don’t think is the right way to go about Things [combatting amatonormativity]). I think my upbringing helped normalize aromanticism for me, and made it easier to accept my aroace-ness. I found that it was also a lot easier to figure out and accept that I was asexual because Western society, at least considers sex and sexuality to be a very hush-hush topic to begin with.

I went to a predominantly Chinese elementary school. My classmates did talk about crushes, but it wasn’t really that important in the grand scheme of things (because well. Our culture never really placed romantic love on a pedestal.) I did participate in some of these discussions, but that was because I mixed up my tertiary attraction with romantic attraction! Wahoo! (That really confused me😭)

But in middle school, I went to a majority-white school for pre-IB (which was hell btw) and there was a lot more emphasis on romance! Which was a moment because I already figured out I was ace! I did find another ace and aroace during my last year at that school, which helped normalize a-spec identities for me, but Events happened that I will Not talk about here because it’s Too Personal lol (haha)

Coming out is already hard to begin with, but especially in Asian households. When you have an identity that’s already quite obscure, it becomes even harder. Because of this, Inever came out to my parents, or intended to come out to them before I got a stable job. I thought they wouldn’t understand. I did come out to my cousin. She told my mom. She was relatively (?) accepting but dang. It still sucked balls. AAAAAAAAAAAA IT WAS A SITUATION!!!!!!!!

Community is really important when figuring out who you are. Even though the Events happened, I’m grateful that I was friends with them. They really helped me a lot.

Onto the stuff that isn’t just my entire life story!

I experience queerplatonic attraction, and a while back I was setting up my Chinese pronouns.page (which was hell because I can’t read simplified or traditional Chinese💀) and stumbled across a term I’ve never seen before: 知音 (zhiyin). I looked further into it and I was like “holy shiiiiit this fits me and my qpp perfectly!!1!” To me, 知音 feels like it has more weight to it than the term qpp, because yeag! It’s also a more localized term for qpp that I can use with my family if need be (which is awesome).

That is my experience! Uh. Thank you for reading all of that, if you did. I really appreciate that.

Edit here’s a really good thing that explains a lot ‼️ https://www.reddit.com/r/aromantic/comments/sh83o2/today_i_realised_from_my_experience_and_from_a/?rdt=62163

i’d like to read about non-white aro experiences (as well as experiences of aro people from outside the US and UK). i don’t think there are enough explicitly non-white conversations about aromanticism. i remember seeing a demographic poll a long time ago, with a majority of aromantic tumblr identifying as white, but non-white aros exist!

i want to hear from people who can’t/won’t come out because of cultural expectations or language barriers. people who use different words to describe their aromanticism. people who experience isolation from the aro community because they aren’t white (enough). i want to hear about aromanticism from new angles!

of course, no one is ever obligated to reveal their ethnicity or race online. but if anyone has seen writing on diverse aro experiences or if they want to share their own experiences, i’d like to read about other perspectives! (pls send stuff my way)

[crazyalien87]

I honestly feel more varioriented than perioriented because...

My romantic orientation and my sexual orientation are seaprate from each other. They are different things. I mean yeah soemtimes I have both attractions to one person and they can combine, but even then it is still different. I dont see sex as an inherent part of a romantic relationship to me. For me it is an awesome bonus but certsinly not meccessary. Like a DLC. Or adding more toppings to a pepperoni pizza. Etc. Awesome but so not needed bc the romantic relationship is already awesome.

But that is so different from how most others see romance! And this confused the hell out of me until I figured it out! Like there is something that almost everyone knows about romance except me. Like everyone understands this nebulous concept somehow except me. And like I get that technically a perioriented person can also be like this but like dang?! It is rare?! So rare. Like are there any cases we know of ever? Idk probably those allos aho are fine dating aces but not having sex. Like me if i had a nonhot bf lolol. well doesnt have to be a dude but men are rarely hot to me. Ngl back in high school i was worried i couldnt date any dude unless he was ace or otherwise ok with not having sex with me bc i hated the idea of me having sex with a dude so badly back then.

Anyway. Of course there is this complication of im varioriented now technically by 2 reasons: 1. im romanticslly attracted to all genders but sexually only to most but not all of them (women, men, and nonbinary genders that aren't neutral) and 2. romantically i have no gender/sex preference but sexually i have big preference for women (it varies from like 51% to like 100%😳). But like reason #2 isn't neccesarily varioriented? i mean it is usually like heteroromantic bisexual or something like that, not different preferences. A while ago I actually coined the term varilean for a perioriented mspec whose romantic and sexual orientations are technically the same but have such varied preferences that thet feel different. But is that actually varioriented? Maybe?? I mean when i or someone else ask someone about it they say yes so I guess so?

Also reason #1. Uh only some ppl would accept it bc many ppl would define attraction as only to women &/or men (or no) and not defime it based on attraction to nonbinary people. So then by this logic, my romantic and sexual orientation are both to the same set of sexes (both of them). Not to mention that even withoht this, it is such a small group of ppl genderwise who i can be attracted to romantically but not sexually. Bc it is only some nonbinary people, and nombinary people are already so rare. Altho, I actually define my orientatopn based on sex phenotypes and not genders but use genders as shorthand for like "ppl who look like that gender('s transition goals)". But still a small group either way. I mean how do I know I cannot be attracted to them? Bc I assume it to be true, bc it feels right? Or maybe I just wanna be varioriented bc my romantic and sexual orientation are so different (despite both being bi) that calling myself perioriented feels weird? Bc I dont relate to perioriented people as much as I should? But I don't want to intrude on varioriented people's space? But I can't be intruding if I am them😭.

Idk dawg😭.

[fridayyy-13th]

It’s almost 2023, so let’s celebrate the good things that happened to us in 2022! List ten amazing things that happened to you this year and then send this to ten people who brighten your day!

hey Red, thanks for the ask game! :)

gosh let me think

i wrote two entire fanfics this year! they were just short oneshots, but still!!! that's not even mentioning all the fics i came up with over the course of this year, that are sitting in my flash drive as WIPs. (and yeah, i did lose two completely filled pages of notes for my hermitcraft fic, but dammit i'll complete it someday.)

i have a bunch of super awesome mutuals now! holy frick you guys are so cool.

the choir i'm in connects to a few annual competitions, and with one of them, i made it to the third round! last year i only made it to the second! the third round's not til like halfway through january though. not looking forward to the sight-singing bc that's hell but yknow what? it'll be fun

a friend of mine got me an ace pride pin and bracelet! i could tag her, she does have a tumblr...yknow what i will. @dragenta super big thanks for that, it meant a lot to me :)

THE MAGNUS PROTOCOL! WOOOOO!! and i thought i joined the magnus fandom late...i joined months after MAG 200! at the time i thought it was nice to be able to binge everything, but i was also sad that i had missed out on the series while it was airing. but hey! now i'll be there right at the start!

this is a hard list to make. uhh i got to watch a really fun play a few weeks ago! my local high school did a frickin awesome job.

i read It Devours! and it was very very good. carlos my absolute beloved

i also bought The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives In Your Home a couple of weeks ago, i haven't gotten the chance to read it but i'm very much looking forward to it

i actually figured out a structure behind the story i want to properly publish (whenever that'll be, i'm still in school), so it's got an actual framework behind it now with morals and everything instead of just being me messing around with OCs. it's still very, very bare-bones at the moment but i've got the four main characters and the lessons they'll learn all sorted out. i think lol.

dang what the heck is a tenth cool thing from this year. oh yeah!! i went to a Halestorm concert earlier this year! i wore a mask, of course, i made sure i was safe/healthy before and after i went, but it was a whole lot of fun.

thanks again for the ask game! here's hoping 2023 is even better than this year

[quillyfied]

OFMD fandom: Rhys Darby! Hot!

Me, indulgent: oh you crazy kids and your fandom crushes, such lovable scamps. Lovely guy, talented, not really hot.

OFMD fandom: begins producing bearded Stede art and photo manips of Rhys Darby with a beard

Me, suddenly sweating: n-now hold on—hold on just a minute there, wait a second, WAIT A SEC—

Spicy hot take but: aro/ace fateseries Merlin. My proofs are 1. I make the headcanon therefore I make the rules, 2. aro/ace people can still be horny and have a libido or have sex, being aro/ace just means lack of attraction so that horny just has no particular direction to go in, and “horny but with no particular direction to go in” feels like it describes fate/hell Merlin in general, 3. if you’re an aro/ace person like me and you want to get creative you could reclaim Merlin’s “doesn’t feel emotions” and the way that actually tends to express itself in canon (with him very blatantly showing emotion even if in unconventional ways) as a fantastical metaphor for aro/aceness (in that he may not feel romantic or sexual attraction, but that doesn’t mean he can’t care about people), and 4. I make the headcanon therefore I make the rules.

[witch-eclipse]

Hi! Can I request twisted wonderland boys reaction when y/n tells them stories about the world they came from about how they were adopted by Slenderman and lived in his mansion with the other Creepypastas before they got through the mirror to that world?

HOLLY SHIT!!!! I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT ‘BOUT THIS ONE!!!!! I like you already! Well here we go! It’s my first one so it’s not be as good as me and you wanted, but i tried! Also, for me, Y/N isn’t Yuu. So Yuu also gonna react to this.

Twisted Wonderland boys reaction to Y/N’s world

Warning!: Cuss words, mention of murder and serial killers.

Sorry, WHAT!!!!!!

The mf’s are confused and scared as hell!!! Yes, even the bravest ones!

Even Jamil and Azul were dumbfounded!

Idia is frightened to the core, we all know that. Yet, he oddly found it somewhat cool

Like, you lived with some mother fucking creepy as hell killers!!! Most of them being dead/undead/ghost and monsters/demons! Who wouldn’t find it cool?!

Leona was like: I think this is why you scare me more than Cheka

Kalim cried. After hearing about Lj, Ej and Sally. Poor innocent sad boi came to hug you tightly because he couldn’t do anything to help them. Yuu had to comfort him. We stand little ball of sunshine 🥺

Vil was a bit grossed out and disgust but also sad and FUCKING SCARED!!!! Remember when he overbloted? The crazy murderer look you send to him still hunt him in his worsts nightmares.

Jack was….idk. When he heard you lived with two Jack (lj and ej) he was like: so ‘am not the first Jack you meet).

Ruggie laughed when he heard you say Laughing Jack and Eyeless Jack. He imagined Jack (too many Jack, it’s almost confusing) laughing and without eyes. Then you told more about Lj and Ej. He didn’t laugh anymore and was hugging tightly Leona’s arm. Leona return the hug because he was also scared but hush

At first, the twins and Azul were like: This is gonna be interesting. Then you told about dear Slender Man (i prefer call him the Operator, Marble Hornets vibes). Azul was dead for 5 minutes. Floyd squeezed him a bit to hard. And Jade started to sweat like he was a fountain. He didn’t sleep this night or the others for one month.

Ortho, well huh….he was like his brother. Scared but found it cool.

Now, Jamil know how you’re so good with a knife and other weapons.

Malleus and Lilia were a very bit scared. I mean, those two are old gramps. They saw many wars, genocides, homicides and other. But they never thought your world and life before you came in the Twisted Wonderland was……like that.

For Epel, Grim, Ace, Deuce and Sebek, they shitted them selves. Now A-Deuce combo and Grim are so scared that they stopped putting salt in your hot chocolate/coffee/tea and when you’re around, Grim doesn’t try to escape. Well he didn’t try it anymore since day one but now he doesn’t even think about it! How could he, a little monster who use fire magic, escape to you, a skilled serial killer and the adoptive child of a powerful entity.

Dang, even Crowley and Vargas are scared as fuck!

Silver slept but somehow recall everything you told

Crewel was a bit grossed out but mostly sad. One of his favorite puppies and possibly adopted child already had an adoptive father. (Yes i stand mama crewel, fight me) Same for Trein. (Grandpa Trein)

Just like Vil, Riddle was grossed out and frightened, like Idia. Yet, he was still understanding. I mean, his mother isn’t the best in the world, so he understand a bit the ones who has family issues, like Jeff and Isaac. Same goes for Leona once he recovered from his shock. He also has family issues.

Trey was scared but he looked at the creeps from another angle. The more he thought about it, he felt really bad for them, mostly Sally, Lifeless Lucy and BEN. They were only children who didn’t do anything to anyone, just minding their own business. But it still doesn’t excuse them for killing people.

Cater didn’t knew what to think about what you told them. He felt bad but he didn’t like them. The only one he seems to like is Bloody Painter/Helen. (Me too bro, with Ej, Toby, Jason, candy pop and lj)

Yuu felt fucking bad. They didn’t like the fact that they kill people, but they couldn’t help but feel really bad. Same goes for Sam.

Azul found himself in Toby. Let me explain. When you said Ticci Toby, he couldn’t help but ask more about him. You told him the minimum about his story, and he found himself in him. They were both bullied and rejected by society because they were different.

(as i reread this, i noticed i forgot Rook, oops-)

So Rook found them interesting but, like everyone, was scared as fuck. For the first time, he didn’t want to “hunt” someone. Now, he also know how you were able to know if he was stalking observing you

Well most of the boys found themselves in/understood the creeps

That’s it! I hope you liked it. Like I said, this is the first I do. So here you go!

[kirislut]

Hii! Can I pls request for tsukki, akaashi, and kenma’s fem s/o meeting the team for the first time? And like the time doesn’t know that they have an s/o? Headcanons pls! Thanks 😊

a/n: omg a haikyuu request finallyyy thank you anon, ive been wanting to write for my haikyuu boys but had no inspiration. also some feedback would be very appreciated because i’m worried that my portrayal of them might be a little ooc, but i hope you enjoy nonetheless!

pairing: tsukishima x fem!reader, akaashi x fem!reader, and kenma x fem!reader

taglist: @katsushimaa @meliorist-midoriya @bbakougo @grow-a-smile-for-a-while @finndaydreams @deephasoceanmagic @nieve-blancas @bunnythepipsqueak

kei tsukishima

he tries to hide you from the team for as long as possible, not because he’s embarrassed of you

but because he knows that he’s going to get teased and also because he’s embarrassed of his teammates

specifically two teammates

everyone else only found out because you came into the gym, wondering where your boyfriend was since practice was going on for longer than usual

“excuse me do you know when practice is going to be over?” you walked in, just to ask yachi since you didn’t want to disturb everyone else

“i’m not sure sorry, but um who are you?” the poor girl is confused to why you’re asking because she doesn’t know you.

“oh i’m tsukki’s girlfriend, (y/n)! i was just waiting for him, so i’ll be outs—“

hearing the words girlfriend, and tsukki together definitely caught the attention of yachi. well actually it caught the attention of a most everyone in the gym.

the practice match they were playing literally paused, eyes wandering to you then going to the tall blonde. it continued like that for a little bit since EVERYONE was wondering how tsukishima got a girlfriend.

honestly i’m surprised too like what the hell youre so adorable and too good for him

“TSUKISHIMA I CANT BELIEVE YOU DIDNT TELL US YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!” suga(mama) was the first to break the stunned silence. as he passed by the middle blocker, going to greet you, he made sure to give the poor boy a karate chop on his side as he passed by. suga only did this because he was hurt that tsukishima never mentioned you

tsukishima was literally shocked by that karate chop because he’s never been on the receiving end of one, definitely has more respect for daichi now since he always get chopped

the next to react were none other than tanaka and nishinoya. they rushed over to the middle blocker and started to bombarde him with questions and mostly teasing

“oooo tsukishima you have a girlfriend!”

“tsukishima you can always come to your senpai if you need help with this relationship”

“how did you get such a cute girlfriend anyways?”

“-just be careful when you grab because-“

tsukishima became so annoyed, “can you both shut up, you’ve never even had another girl like you back.”

that, that definitely hurt their feelings. cue the emo music

actually that made them realize that tsukishima for a girlfriend before they did, so now they were going over to kiyoko and asking for her to be their girlfriend. poor kiyoko i swear

suga and daichi (ugh mom and dad are so cute) start to converse with you, daichi apologizing for everyone’s behavior while suga was congratulating you for being able to handle tsukishima

the only person who wasn’t surprised was yamaguchi of course, who do you think tsukishima went to when he realized he had feelings for you?

kageyama really just, didn’t care at all. if anything he was kinda annoyed because this was eating into their practice time. you had nothing to do with volleyball afterall

very rude kageyama

hinata was waiting behind daichi and suga so that he could ask you question, so when those two stepped away to go back to practice. the orange haired boy was practically bouncing in excitement, he was about to open his mouth when a hand came over it

tsukishima had come to your rescue, he noticed you were looking a bit overwhelmed with suddenly being thrust into the spotlight. honestly he didn’t like it either. “come on (y/n), let’s go.”

your tense feeling was immediately eased, you mouthed a small thank you to him then looked back to his team. “it was nice meeting you all, hopefully next time we can talk properly— ah tsukki don’t pull so hard.”

tsukishima was dragging you out of the gym because one, he was tired, and two because he never wanted to experience that again. especially suga’s karate chops

you were probably never going to show up to a practice again because it was a distraction for other, especially tsukishima, but you were always there during the games because you were one of his biggest supporters for volleyball afterall

also tsukishima only wants you to watch the games because he wants you to think he looks cool while playing volleyball, only so he can brag to you about it later or hear you fan girling about his blocks

keiji akaashi

akaashi really wants you to meet his team, because volleyball is very important to him and so are you. it only seemed fitting

however you were always busy with other things so it took a month after you guys started dating before you could come meet everyone

you arrived just as they were finishing up some drills, just before they finished for the day. akaashi saw you coming into the gym, giving you a small smile right before he set a final ball to bokuto.

akaashi started to head over to you, but bokuto didn’t want him too since he just wanted to hit one more ball. just one more perfect straight.

akaashi explained that he needed to see you, his girlfriend, so do you know that time it is?

it’s bokuto emo mode time

“fine! if you really cared about me and volleyball you’d stay, but go. leave me for all i care.” this adorable dramatic idiot i swear, i still love him though

akaashi spares his best friend a glance then just nods, jogging over to you with no hesitation. also yes bokuto knows about you, he knew if bokuto didn’t know he had a girlfriend he would be devastated for way too long

other teammates notice akaashi heading over to you which makes them confused, they’ve never seen you before.

the setter comes up to you, giving you a hug, like the adorable boyfriend he is. akaashi hit me up

if the boys weren’t confused before they were now, and just to further that confusion he took your hand and walked with you towards his teammates

oh and don’t think that he wasn’t asking you how your day was and such, he’s always going to be considerate of you. he’s really the nicest boyfriend ever

“everyone i want you to meet (y/n), she is my girlfriend.”

it now made sense to who you were, but no one was very surprised. well maybe a little surprised but, akaashi was a good person so they could see him with someone

also they all know he’s pretty so of course girls would be going after him

you politely smile and wave at everyone, “hello, i’m sorry for the intrusion but akaashi wanted me to meet you.”

konoha immediately picked up on the fact that you called akaashi, akaashi and not keiji. “akaashi you still have her call you akaashi?”

the others nodded in agreement, you guys were dating so why the formality

you smiled sheepishly, cutting in before your boyfriend could talk, since he also looked confused. “ah sorry, i just. i wasn’t sure if i should call him keiji, i wanted to be polite.”

that, that was the moment you captured everyone’s heart. you’re little embarrassed expression, just because you wanted to be polite? approval straight away

komi jumped forward, smiling as he put his hands on your shoulders. “(y/n)! you don’t need to be polite, in fact how did akaashi ask you out? or was he too shy and you made the first move?”

komi and konoha proceeded to ask you question about your relationship with akaashi. mostly curious but maybe also because they wanted to tease their setter later if they heard anything silly

when you were finally finished answering questions, you joined akaashi who was talking to bokuto

“bokuto-san please calm down, i’ll set to you more next practice.”

it seemed that akaashi was still trying to lift bokuto’s spirits from earlier, you knew about his infamous emo mode. akaashi sometimes would ask you advice for how to handle him, but it was rare since the male could handle his best friend

“bokuto, i saw your last spike, it was really amazing! if anything you need to rest too, because that’s how your muscles get stronger!”

bokuto blinked twice as he processed your words, his slightly slouched posture and sad demanour straightened up. literally.

“you really think so (y/n)?” his lips were pulled into a pout and eyes were shining like pouting puppy eyes.

“of course bokuto!”

the owl haired boy inhaled deeply as his chest swelled with pride. “you’re right! i will rest and spike even harder tomorrow!”

the ace walked off, full of pride once again, leaving just you and akaashi. he looked at you and offered you a small smile, “thank you (y/n), i’m glad everyone likes you.” he reached over, placing his hand in the top of your head to gently pat and rub your head in appreciation. you smile up at him, nodding. after that he makes sure to walk you home, giving you a sweet goodnight kiss

dang i want head pats too, also catch bokuto also asking for head pats of praise from akaashi during their next practice

kozume kenma

kenma was wary about letting you meet his team, only because he knew it would be a whole ordeal that he was in a relationship

but a week after you guys started dating, you went to one of kenma’s games wanting to cheer him on.

so there you were on the stands, chanting with everyone else and cheering for the team and kenma as well

at the end of the game, you rushed down to the halls where the team would be after just winning their match.

as soon as you saw kenma, a wide grin spread across your face. “congratulations on winning kozume! that last dump you did was so cool!”

the stoic setter saw you, a small sigh leaving his lips because he knew that everyone would wonder who you were. so to avoid the hassle he quickly walked up to you, gently grabbed your hand and straight up walked away from the rest of his team

and as expected, he was right. everyone else just kinda stood there in shock and very confused because they had no clue who you were. they were just watching the two of you walk away, kenma mumbling to you about how he was grateful for your support, but just wanted his hand held game console back

the whole team just turned to kuroo, since he was the only one grinning during the whole situation. “did you not know? that’s kenma’s girlfriend.”

kuroo of course knew because who else would kenma turn to when he figured out he had feelings towards you? of course it would be his best friend and personal idiot

jaws just on the floor, and man did kuroo think it was funny to see everyone’s expressions

the next practice yamamoto and lev come up to kenma immediately

“KENMAA WHY DID YOU TELL US YOU HAD A GIRLFRIEND?” poor kenma because he was just trying to play his game and nearly dropped it, if he did oh yamamoto would probably have been murdered

kenma’s face twisted in a look of annoyance, “i didn’t think it was important that’s all.” he brushed the topic off, not wanting to make a big deal of it because he didn’t see it as one

yamamoto was personally offended by kenma’s words because um, kenma had a girlfriend and he didn’t. “not a big deal? KENMA HOW C-“

“yamamoto, shut up.” kuroo cut in because kenma was just getting more annoyed, and also because he was just being too loud

poor yamamoto, he also wanted to know if you had cute friends. but also knowing him, he would probably run away if he met said cute friends

however it didn’t stop lev from following after kenma, “hey hey kenma, how did you even get a girlfriend?

for once kenma would rather play volleyball then answer these questions about you. it’s not like he doesn’t want to talk about you, it’s just he doesn’t feel the need to share about his relationship

luckily they stopped bugging him, but when you showed up at the end of practice, the attention was brought back to the both of yours relationship

but instead of lev or yamamoto going up to him, they went to you instead.

“hey kenma’s girlfriend, why do you like kenma? don’t you think he’s too quiet?”

“do you have any cute friends by any chance.”

“also you’re short, but maybe taller than yaku..”

lev was then immediately kicked by yaku, you think he would learn by now

you were kinda overwhelmed by the two guys, especially lev because he was well, tall. you laughed sheepishly, taking a step back from them

kenma quickly picked up on your discomfort and speed walks over to you, kuroo has only seem him walk this fast when going to the bame store

the setter stepped in between you and his two teammates, shooting them a glare and small frown. “leave (y/n) alone, she is none of your business.”

after that yaku drags away lev before he could continue pestering or start teasing, while kai leads yamamoto away to console him about wanting to also have a cute girlfriend

that left you and kenma, and wow you were kinda stunned by kenma coming to your rescue. because you know that he isn’t the most expressive or affectionate but this action threw away any possible doubts you had before

kenma made sure to walk you all the way home that day to make up for his annoying teammates. lucky for him the topic of his relationship didn’t come up again. besides he didn’t want to share all the precious moments he has with you anyways, you were all his afterall

A second casual affection prompt? Brushing strands of hair away for Rulie?

Julie wiped her brow of sweat, wishing she had thought to open a window before she started a painting. Sure, she had AC, but she found the frigid air messes with her more temperamental paints, so she preferred the cool breeze of the natural wind.

But her painting was almost done, and Julie was happy with where she was currently. Especially since there was a knock to her studio door, making her turn and her face light up as a face poked through.

"Reggie!"

"Hey darlin', how's it going? Capture any natural splendour?"

Julie moved aside, showing Reggie the almost finished sunset over the LA horizon that she had put down. The sky was an array of pinks, yellows, and reds. The skyline was full of dark rectangles, specks of lights for windows, all that was left was the beach in the foreground, and the lapping waves against it.

Reggie let out a low whistle, "Looking good, can't wait to see the finished product."

"I might finish it tomorrow, depending on the smog," Julie replied, grinning up at Reggie as she looped her arms around his neck. Reggie brushed a few stray curls away from her forehead and then snorted at the streaks of paint that marred her skin.

"Hun, what have we said about making yourself the canvas?"

"That I make a beautiful one that you love cleaning up?" Julie replied with a smirk.

"You know you can just ask me to run you a bath right?"

"Where's the fun in that?"

Reggie sighed, leaning down to kiss her nose, then wormed his way out of her embrace to amble off to the bathroom. Grinning when he heard Julie shout her thanks over the running water. Could hear her puttering around the kitchen uncorking some wine while he added bubbles and salts to the bath.

"You joining me?" Julie asked from the doorway, danging the stems of the glasses from her fingers, the bottle of rosé in her other hand.

"Like I would turn down the chance to share a bath with you," Reggie replied. He started setting out candles as Julie pulled up her hair, and soon they were settled together beneath the bubbles, sipping their wine, letting the soothing scents wash over them.

"How was your day?" Julie asked, leaning her head back on Reggie's shoulder as he worked the loofah across her arms.

"Eh, same old, same old. But I think I'm close to cracking that equation so I can finally finish up this doctorate paper," Reggie stated, nuzzling her moist skin, scrubbing the last traces of paint away and following the path with his mouth.

"Does that mean I'll have to call you Dr. Peters?" Julie asked.

"Mmm, I think Dr. Molina has a better ring to it," Reggie replied.

"Few more months corazon, then you can be Dr. Molina to your hearts content," Julie hummed. "We still have to do those seating charts."

"Ugh don't remind me. Wedding planning is the worst," Reggie groaned. "Sure you don't wanna elope?"

"And risk the wrath of tia? No way in hell."

"You think we can convince her to do the seating chart then?" Reggie asked.

"She'd plan this whole thing if we let her, but I would rather it be ours. Though you may be onto something with making her do the seating," Julie said.

"I'm full of good ideas," Reggie crowed, then turned her head to pull her into a kiss. Grinning as she flicked his damp hair away from his face, tasting of her peachy lip gloss, the last vestiges of wine, and the sweet taste that was all Julie. Pulling back, he scrubbed away a last streak of paint, thumbing away the bubbles with his thumb. "Gosh I adore you."

"I adore you too," Julie said, pulling him down for one more soapy kiss.

Jurassic World Dominion

So I've actually been a big fan of the Jurassic Park franchise basically my whole life, and I just want to say: I have no idea why people are hating Jurassic World Dominion as much as they are.

Honestly, I'd probably rank it like fourth out of the six films, but I'd still say "pretty dang good." 

A large number of semi-random and SPOILERY thoughts follow:

I love that we went back to the primary Big Bad of the novels (and the Behind-the-Scenes Bad of the first film) and finally spent time on them in the movies! I’m always happy to spend time digging into the source material of the novels — and believe me, there’s still some stuff in the two books that I’d like to see brought to film someday...

I’m glad that they didn’t split up Owen and Claire between films again. The habit of sequels always splitting up/bringing back together the various couples is dumb.

I am legitimately surprised that Claire and Owen just drove off with Maisie at the end of the previous film and simply never told anyone where she was or spoke to any authorities about her. They legit just kidnapped her ass. Granted, she consented to that, but it’s still fucked up? She probably is heir to the Lockwood fortune, and frankly, shouldn’t Iris (her nanny/housekeeper from the previous film) more entitled to guardianship... ?

I wish they found a way to keep Franklin and Zia in the movie for a lot longer. Those two were some of the best parts of Fallen Kingdom.

Kudos for talking about Claire’s lingering guilt for the first film and the end events of the second. However, I kind of wish Maisie had gotten some time to ponder/process her own guilt for what happened. Although she certainly has her own internal identity struggles to work though.

Since Grant and Malcolm already got to return for previous sequels in major ways, it’s cool to have Ellie lead the charge for the original trio this time around. I respect and admire that decision.

As happy as I am to see the original trio return, I can’t help but wish we got Julianne Moore/Sarah Harding tossed in, too. That would’ve been so great. The Lost World film needs more respect, and she was a great complement to Ian’s character. But really, it’s a packed house in here already. It might’ve been hard to drag in even MORE characters.

Surprised that we never saw Lowery from the first JW return. They foreshadow his presence on the BioSyn compound by showing his face in the papers of former Jurassic World employees who have moved to working for BioSyn, but he never surfaces. Instead of giving us some new characters running the communications in the mountain-framed reserve, it would’ve been absolutely aces to use Lowery and/or Vivian again!

That Malta sequence is absolute goddamn dynamite. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time thanks to the brilliant editing and pulse-pounding score. VERY happy to have Omar Sy back in the cast for a while, too! He was the one I was most worried about throughout this scene. Even though I knew Claire and Owen would escape safely, I was still completely on edge about how in the hell they’d do it. 10/10 sequence.

Santos was such a nasty piece of work that it’s downright weird for her to not linger in the movie longer, IMO. She is so pointlessly cruel at times.

DUUUUUDE, they figured out a way to explain/bring in finally getting feathered dinosaurs without getting rid of what we already have. SO fuckin’ nice. Mad respect for this.

I did NOT expect them to suddenly give Dr. Wu a sympathetic arc, but I’m surprisingly ok with it. It makes sense for him to finally grow from his prior experiences. And yet... I think he should still have to somehow answer for a lot of what he’s done. Particularly the Indoraptor. Like, there’s no good goddamn reason to ever create an Indoraptor unless your goal is to make a militarized killing machine, dude. 

It’s worth noting that Maisie is told very clearly that she is necessary in order to prevent the world from entering a major famine that will result in the deaths of hundreds of thousands. And after initially seeming very receptive to the importance of this, she promptly says “Fuck those people” and makes a break for it. I get that she wants her freedom and that teenagers are rebellious, but that is fucking harsh. 

Therizinosaurus and Pyroraptor sequences were very cool. They looked awesome and did very cool stuff. They even managed to justify the Therizinosaurus being aggressive and scary in spite of it still being a clear herbivore through clever unspoken storytelling. 

Giganotosaurus, on the other hand? Kinda underwhelming, IMO. And hey- are we supposed to believe he has the same “movement based on motion” as the T-Rex does in the movies, or what?? Because they seem to imply it but never clarify if (or why) that would be true.

Dilophosaurus is back after being absent since 1993. Yay! But they’re ALL juvenile-sized, without a single one being adult-sized. Boo!

Sam Neill/Alan Grant seems like he’s the least engaged of the five returning leads. He’s mostly here for his check, and I can’t fault him for that. I just wish he had a little more to do that would show off his expertise and experience with these creatures. I’m glad he’s present even if he’s got little to do besides phone it in — it definitely wouldn’t be the same without him. 

Ian gets some of the best dialogue, of course. His pessimism about the world speaks to me deeply.

This movie falls into the half of the franchise that is sadly afraid to kill off any sympathetic characters. I honestly prefer it when they’re willing to let likable characters die, because it really raises the stakes. But at the same time, I didn’t particularly want to see any of these new characters go down? Idk. Maybe I would’ve been okay with losing Ramsay? Or, hey - why not have Dr. Wu get his little redemption arc but still die by the end? Idk.

By the final act of the film, it becomes pretty obvious why the characters were kept separated from one another for most of the running time. It’s just a real problem to juggle that many characters all trying to avoid dinosaurs in a GROUP, y’know? It’s hard to track them all in a single shot, and it’s hard to keep the stakes feeling high if no one’s actually dying along the way.  I saw one of the guys from Easy Allies compare it to watching a large, tightly packed group trying to maneuver through a haunted house; there’s definitely truth in that.

The ending fails to address a few major outstanding issues, IMO. I really wish they had given us some lip service to talk about the finer details of how the significant number of dinosaurs in the former BioSyn preserve is going to help make coexistence with the remainder easier to handle... or how, exactly, Claire and Owen are allowed to retain custody of Maisie. After they kidnapped a girl, the world went on a four-year manhunt for her, and then authorities finally rescued everybody and obviously were like “Oh shit it’s Maisie Lockwood” and then ........ ???

........it feels weird and kind of off-putting to actually see Grant and Ellie kiss? I never realized until this moment that they share extremely little on-screen affection in the first JP. But hey, at least they finally got back together... even if it’s much too late for them to ever follow up on Grant’s newfound affection for/tolerance for children in the first film. Alas.

[artofapeach]

Thank you for answering my blitzfizz ask in priority, it was a delight to read your hcs fkkff. i also hc fizz as on the ace spectrum !!! demisexual would be a very interesting path. i just love an ace fizz whose humor is so dirty and who plays up the sexual side for his shows but who's actually not into that himself ? would also make his relationship w ozzie so interesting. i saw a quite interesting take from a youtuber on that.

i love the idea that blitz is still in love w fizz !!!

thx for the link to your fics, i'll go read it ! i hope we get answers abt fizz and blitz in the show soon~

No no thank YOU!! It was my fucking pleasure!!!!

Hell yes, I feel like Fizz being ace would not only give some nice contrast to his character, but also show that ace people can get into sex work to a point. Hell, he might not even be sexual with Ozzie. Plus there’s the fact that he had the same swimsuit as Alastor in the summer merch, who is confirmed ace 🤭

If it was any other show, it might seem like a stretch, but with it being Helluva and Viv being so pro-queer, I think it’s dang near likely!

Thanks for reading my fics! I hope you like them! I’m very nervous about writing them and hope I don’t make them too ooc, but at this point, I just wanna have fun with my boys X3

Masterlist | Rules

》 Bokuto Koutaro

The sunlight made your dim curtains glow. Sleeping peacefully in bed was you and Bokuto. It was still quite early in the morning but Bokuto is an early riser.

As he opens his eyes, he smiles when he saw your sleeping figure, lips parted as you breath in and out.

You were sleeping in your silky nightgown, the straps falling to your arms — revealing a bit of your breasts. Bokuto’s eyes widen at the sight but he can’t help but feel giddy to see such a beautiful and sexy woman sleeping beside him.

Even though you and Bokuto shared a good amount of intimate moments, he was still shy whenever some of your intimate parts were showing, making Bokuto immediately cover his eyes, blushing madly. He peeked a little and decided to gently return the strap to its rightful place, not wanting for him to see freely without your consent.

At first he sigh in relief, but he suddenly felt a bit fuzzy. The sight of your breasts was enough to make him feel aroused — making him as awake as ever. It was one of those moments when he craves your touch and attention. He didn’t want to wake you up just to satisfy his needs. He didn’t want to be selfish.

Bokuto didn’t know how long he was admiring your face, trying to distract himself from those lewd thoughts but his eyes widened when he saw your eyes suddenly looking straight into his, heart thumping in his chest just like the first time he saw you.

“Good morning, Bo” you greeted with a sleepy smile, rubbing your eyes.

“Good morning my sugarplum!” Bo says with a big smile on his face, quickly pulling you into him as he gives you multiple kisses on your face, making you giggle.

“Looks like you had a good night’s sleep”

You say, running your fingers through his hair that just makes Bokuto melt, puppy dog eyes instantly at the touch.

“Let’s take a shower!”

“Okay-”

You squealed as Bokuto suddenly lifts you up from the bed and carries your bridal style to the bathroom.

“You have quite the energy this morning, Bo.”

Your innocence just made him stir up even more. Oh how he wanted to get a taste of you right there.

“(Y/n)-chan. Can I ask for kisses? I have a problem” says Bokuto shyly, looking away from you with his cheeks tinted red at the request. You raised your eyebrows to what he meant by problem. As you looked down, you finally get it. You cup his cheek and caressed it with your thumb.

“Now what got you so hard early in the morning, Bo?”

“You just look so dang sexy in that nightgown.”

You could melt right there. Bokuto was being so respectful towards you as he kept closing his eyes, fighting the urge to look at your beautiful breasts. Not wanting to strain him from his needs any further, you strip off your clothes.

“Open your eyes, Bo. I’m all yours.”

From his hair being droopy to instantly back alive, Bokuto smiles and immediately stripped, instantly pulling your body onto his, kissing you passionately and moaned at the feeling of your soft breasts against his chest.

“Turn on the water baby. We’re supposed to be showering.”

You say with a giggle. Bokuto didn’t listen as he wrapped his arms around you and kept kissing you all over your face, your neck and jaw. Reaching for the knob, hot water started to shower, hitting you and Bokuto but the ace was startled, instantly jumping from his spot.

“Baby- ow!”

Your eyes widened as you saw Bokuto on the ground — he slipped. Bokuto looks at you with puppy dog eyes, pouting like a baby.

“Bo! Are you okay?”

“What the heck? Why did you turn it on?”

“You know how much I love hot water when I shower.”

A smirk then appeared on Bokuto’s face that sent shivers down your spine as Bokuto then caged you between him and the tile wall.

“Why don’t we heat things up more then?”

》 Miya Atsumu

It was one of those rare moments when you were the last one to arrive in your shared apartment with Atsumu.

“‘Tsumu?” you call for your fiancé, observing that the living room and kitchen was empty. Not hearing a response, you then went to you your shared bedroom but he wasn’t there. Hearing the sound of the shower running, it indicated that he just got home a few minutes earlier than you.

Opening the bathroom door, you could see Atsumu rinsing his hair. Hearing you enter, he turned around and beamed as he saw you.

“Welcome home, babe! Like what you see?” says Atsumu with a smug smile as he leans his arm on the wall and the other on his hips, empahasizing his naked figure. You roll your eyes at his childishness but you couldn’t help but laugh.

“What am I seeing?”

“Total hotness.”

“Really? I didn’t notice.”

From a smile to a frown, Atsumu gave you one of the most hurt expressions he could muster, crushing his ego.

“I’m so hurt by that babe.”

“I’m just kidding. You know I love you, ‘Tsumu.”

“Show me how much you love me then”

Atsumu remains silent as he stares at you, something dark encircling his orbs. You raised your eyebrows as he gazes at you from head to toe, checking you out in your office clothes, your tight knee length skirt that empahsizes your curves and how you purposefully let three of the buttons unbuttoned. You teased Atsumu, noticing how he has been texting you some dirty hints for the past few days. Stripping off your clothes, you then joined him inside the shower, smirking to how Atsumu kept his gaze on you, gulping to see you with no clothes on.

Atsumu leans down to your face, a smirk appearing.

“How was work baby?”

“Oh you know same old. How about you? Training must be exhausting, huh?”

You say with a smile as you felt butterflies in your stomach as Atsumu brushes his lips on yours. Your eyes widen and let out a squeak when he suddenly pulls you close and cups your butt, hands gripping on his shoulders for support.

“Oh believe me, I’m exhausted. All it takes for me to recover is some kisses.”

“I’m not that easy.”

“Oh please. You even said yes to my proposal.”

Flashbacks of Atsumu proposing to you to marry him was one of the happiest moments in your life. It still gave you butterflies to your stomach thinking about it like it was only yesterday.

Before you even get to reply, Atsumu smashes his lips onto yours, hungry for your lips. You moaned as his tongue slips in to your mouth, making Atsumu grip onto your ass even more. It was quite funny to see your fiancé desperate for you even though you two dated for a real while now. It’s like the first time you two kiss. An idea popped into your head, wanting to tease Atsumu.

“Yer so hot, (Y/N). I can’t get enough of ya.”

“Thanks babe.”

As you tilted your head to give him more room to kiss on your neck, you reached for the heater as the shower running, transitioning the temperature of the water from cold to hot hot — making Atsumu yelp and panickly turn off the shower before facing you.

“What the hell is wrong with ya?! I thought this was supposed to be sexy time!”

You laughed loudly as Atsumu’s face was beet red.

“Yer lucky yer so cute.”

》 Hinata Shoyo

Hinata Shoyo came from practice and just wanted to soak into the bathtub — wanting to relax.

“(Y/n)-chan? I’m home!”

Heading towards the door, you greeted Hinata with a kiss on the cheeks before taking of his MSBY jacket and placing it in the laundry basket for you to take care of it later.

“You look tired, sunshine. You want to take a bath?”

Hinata’s heart flutters as you addressed him by his nickname you gave for him ever since you two started dating. He loved how you call him, noticing the loving tone you put in.

“I really do. I’ll go prepare the tub now!”

Before you could even reply, Hinata hurriedly went to the bathroom, closing the door behind him. He somehow felt a bit weird and he could feel his pants tightening. The wing spiker started to freak out, his face red. Wanting to get those thoughts off, he quickly took off his clothes and started to fill the tub with lukewarm water and pouring his favourite bath bomb that you introduced him to. He loves how the bath bomb makes your skin smell so good and milky smooth-

“Aahhh!”

From the kitchen, you stopped what you were doing as you heard Hinata’s scream. Alarmed, you quickly knocked on the bathroom door.

“Shoyo?! Are you okay?”

“(Y/n)-chan!”

“I’m coming in, okay?”

As you enter the bathroom, you saw Hinata already in the tub, the water still midway his hips but what caught your attention was his member making itself known, making your eyes widen.

“(Y/n)-kun! Don’t-”

“You need help with that, baby?”

Now you’ve done it. Hinata was more needy now. Hinata has been wanting to do you but he was shy to do so until the day finally came where he reached his limits.

“N-no! You don’t have-”

Hinata was in a stuttering mess as you start to strip off your clothes.

“You could’ve just asked, Shoyo. I don’t mind at all.”

You say with smile as you joined him in the tub, sitting on his lap and wrap your arms around neck.

“I-I want you, (Y/n)-chan!”

You let out a chuckle before you placed your lips onto his, Hinata instantly wrapping his arms around your waist, pulling you closer. You two had quite a make out session. Without knowing where your hands were going, you accidentally turned on the shower.

“Ack! (Y/N)-chan! Why did you turn on the shower?”

The poor baby rested his face on your chest as you immediately turned off the shower. The hot water didn’t startled you as you loved and preffered that temperature to shower in but Hinata was more into cold showers.

“I’m so sorry, Shoyo! I didn’t mean to.”

“Take care of me please.”

》 Miya Osamu

You and Osamu were just hanging on the couch of your shared apartment, watching Osamu’s favourite cooking show.

“Gosh. You really don’t want to make Gordon Ramsay angry.”

Osamu hummed as placed multiple kisses on the side of your head, his muscular arms around your waist and legs tangled to yours.

It was just a lazy saturday night — with the two of you finishing 15 episodes in one sitting after eating dinner. As you lay into your boyfriend’s chest, you noticed how Osamu has been running his hand up and down your back and from time to time, he nimbled on your ear — a spot where he knows very well that you were vulnerable to, making you moan quietly. You gave into his touch and nuzzled your head further into his neck.

“‘Samu~”

“Yea baby?”

“‘Samu, I have to take a shower. It’s super late at night.”

“Can I come with?”

“It ain’t bad for the water bill so why not?”

You say with a giggle before getting up — Osamu’s eyes lingering on your fading figure, him getting a bit more needy than usual. He craved for your touch. He wanted love from you after being so busy managing Onigiri Miya.

Arriving in the bathroom, you were about to take off your clothes when Osamu caged you in between his arms, holding the sink. Your back was facing him so you look straight in the mirros with an amused smile on your face, seeing how your boyfriend nuzzled his face into your neck, shivering at his touch as you felt his warm lips and hot breath on your skin.

“Oh? Someone’s needy today.”

You say teasingly and brought a hand up to cup his cheek and lean your head back onto his shoulder, enjoying his kisses.

“I couldn’t stop thinking about ya all day.”

Smiling, you turned around and wrap your arms around his neck, pulling him into a passionate kiss. Osamu moans as he finally got a taste of your sweet lips, his arms immediately wrapping around your bum to help you sit down on the bathroom sink. You automotive wrapped your legs around Osamu’s waist, pulling him closer which made him groan even louder.

You pulled away, butterflies in your stomach and lips swollen from the kiss. You smirk as Osamu’s eyes were furrowed, not yet contented with the contact.

“You’re getting loud, ‘Samu. The neighbors might hear.”

“Yer such a tease. Why don’t we turn on the shower then?”

You raised your arms up, gesturing for Osamu to strip you. With a smirk, Osamu takes of your shirt while you take off your shorts. It was your turn to strip Osamu from his clothes. Your eyes were blessed to see his muscular build, your boyfriend smiling proudly the way you gawked at his body — boosting his confidence.

Stepping into the shower, Osamu turned on the water heater to neutral before pinning you against the wall, finally be able to make love to you. The cold tile wall against your back makes you shiver, Osamu taking this as an advantage to find your weak spots on your neck, you biting back a moan.

“Yer so beautiful, darlin’.”

Your fingers got lost in his hair, suddenly gripping it as he hits the spot on your neck, making him more turned on.

“Hop on a count of 3. One... two... three.”

As you hopped, Osamu securely catches you, your face now level witn his. Wrapping your legs around his waist and your hands on his neck, you two shared another passionate kiss — lips moving in sync with love and lust. You wanted this intimate moment to be more steamy, making you set the heater into hot mode, the hot water making contact with Osamu’s back, making him shout and jump from his spot.

“What the fuck?! It hurts! Did you do that, baby?”

“Sorry. It just got a little bit cold. Plus, i wanted this moment to be steamy if you know what i mean” you say with an exaggerated wink.

Osamu blinks at you for a moment before letting out a laugh, throwing his head back to how cute you were. Smiling, Osamu sets you down and hugs you, kissing your forehead.

“Damn i love you.”

“I love you too, my lil’ onigiri. Now shut up and kiss me.”
