#sunflowers are one of my favorite flowers 💛

among the sunflowers

18+ only | inspired by the cloudy town cult au by @lichilly

as you walk through the field, it almost feels as if the flowers part for him. they rustle in the wind so tall, full, and golden as they whisper their devotion to the sun beaming from above.

you can smell smoke in the distance, like charred corn and smoldering charcoal. there's laughter. the crackling of a great fire.

"you came at a good time," the strange man says as he leads you deeper in the labyrinth of blooms. "our summer feast is one of our most sacred of celebrations."

jack, he said his name was. just a few days ago, he offered to take you and your friends in after your van had broken down. you had offered him cash, but all he wanted was company in return. you'd enjoy the feasts, tour the town, maybe help with the harvest if you were able.

it was a good deal. almost too good to be true.

you follow him through the field, a basket of flowers slung in your arm. earlier, you had woven wreaths for the children of the town, taking joy in the way they delicately prodded at the blooms resting atop their heads.

before you packed up to join your friends, jack himself had asked for one.

"if you don't mind," he said, almost sheepish.

"i'll make it special," you replied, twisting the stems of the freshly picked sunflowers into a soft circle.

"just like you?" there was an air of amusement in his voice, light and sweet. he took a seat beside you on the hill overlooking the children as they played. "i'm a lucky man."

you looked away, trying to hide the blush that warmed your cheeks.

he had been nothing but kind to you, after all. always so doting as he made sure that you were fed, clothed, and comfortable. if the repairs to your van weren't almost done, you probably would have considered staying just a little longer.

when you finished, his eyes widened at the crown of red blooms.

"for my savior," you said, presenting the wreath to him. "how could i ever repay you?"

although you had said it with mock fealty, jack lowered his head solemnly. you placed the crown, so brilliant and full, so that it rested perfectly amongst cerulean curls that were as vivid as the sky above you.

"payment isn't necessary," he said as he looked up, eyes warm with delight. "when being beside you is already such a gift."

you took that moment to stand up faster than you wanted to, proclaiming that you were going to look for your friends. his laugh was bright and hearty as he helped you retrieve the fallen flowers.

now, he was leading you deeper into the field. there was a forest full of effigies celebrating the rise of the sun, he said. there were many things in this town you would find beautiful.

"we weave flowers into the bundled hay," he says, adjusting his crown. "i'm sure it's something you would also appreciate. maybe you could even contribute."

he tells you that some of the townsfolk had already taken your friends there, excited to join the summer festivities.

"already?" you say, surprised considering all they've wanted to do is leave. "but—"

a scream cuts through the quiet. it's blood curdling. pained. familiar.

you take his arm, fingers creasing the soft linen sleeve. "what's going on?"

the man, eyes golden in the sunlight, merely turns and smiles at you. it is a warm smile. a beautiful smile.

despite your fear, you find yourself returning it.

"that," he says, his fingers gently curling over your own. in the light of the waning afternoon, the flowers atop his head are a brilliant scarlet. like sunset. like fresh blood. "is the sound of a new dawn."

You’re in your favorite café with a slice of chocolate cake and a steaming mug of hot cocoa. It’s your sanctuary—sweet, cozy, and entirely stress-free. That is, until Wonwoo slides into the seat across from you, wearing his usual hoodie and that slightly smug but mostly unreadable expression.

“Hey,” he greets casually, sipping his black coffee like it’s the nectar of life.

“Hey,” you mumble back through a mouthful of cake, barely glancing up. You’re trying not to think about how soft his hair looks today.

“So…” He leans forward slightly, setting his coffee down. “What kind of chocolates do girls like?”

Your fork freezes mid-air. “What?”

“Chocolates,” he repeats, his voice almost suspiciously nonchalant. “Like…what’s a good kind to buy? You know…for a girl.”

Oh. For a girl. Your heart sinks, but you keep your expression neutral. Of course, it’s for her.

“Uh, I guess…” You poke at your cake, suddenly uninterested in eating. “Milk chocolate is a safe bet. Might be boring to some, but personally it's my fave”

He nods thoughtfully, like you just revealed the secret to the universe. “What about flowers? Roses? Or is that…too much?”

You feel your patience thinning. How considerate he is. For her. “Roses are fine, daises are cute too. Or sunflowers” you say, trying not to sound clipped. “Why? Who’s the lucky girl?”

Wonwoo nearly chokes on his coffee. “No one!” he blurts, a little too quickly. “I was just…curious.”

From a table nearby, Mingyu and Hao exchange wide-eyed glances. You and Wonwoo complete unaware your other friends are also a the cafe.

Mingyu gestures wildly with his spoon, clearly saying something like, Are you seeing this? Hao just shakes his head, muttering, “Idiots.”

“Well,” you say, plastering on a fake smile. “Good luck impressing her.”

Wonwoo frowns slightly but doesn’t respond. He just sips his coffee in silence, while you silently curse the unfairness of the universe.

The next day, you walk into your first class of the day to find a small box of chocolates sitting on your usual seat.

“For me?” you whisper to yourself, picking it up.

It’s a fancy box, with a ribbon and everything. You examine it like it’s a puzzle, your brain spinning. Is this from Wonwoo? Or maybe Mingyu, pulling some kind of prank?

As if summoned by your thoughts, Wonwoo appears in the doorway. He stops short when he sees you holding the chocolates.

“Oh, uh…” He scratches the back of his neck. “You found those.”

You tilt your head at him. “You…left these for me?”

“Yeah.” He shuffles his feet awkwardly, avoiding eye contact. “You like chocolate, right?”

“I mean, yeah,” you say, your heart doing an involuntary somersault. “But I thought you didn’t like chocolate?”

“I don’t,” he admits, shoving his hands into his hoodie pockets. “But…you do.”

The simplicity of his words hits you like a ton of bricks. You stare at him, unsure whether to laugh, cry, or throw the chocolates at him.

From the other side of the library, Mingyu peeks out from behind a shelf. “Can you believe this guy?” he whispers to Hao.

Hao just shakes his head again. “She’s not getting it. And he’s terrible at this. We might actually need a miracle.”

You don’t know how you got roped into this. One moment you were joking with Wonwoo about his gaming obsession, and the next you were sitting on his couch, controller in hand, with the eerie music of a zombie horror game echoing around the room.

“Are you sure about this?” you ask nervously

“You’ll be fine,” Wonwoo says, smirking as he starts the game. “Just follow me.”

You squint at the screen. “How do I even move?!”

Wonwoo laughs, leaning over to press a button on your controller. His shoulder brushes yours, and you momentarily forget how to breathe

“There,” he says, sitting back. “Now just keep up.”

Easier said than done. The first zombie jumps out, and you scream so loudly that Wonwoo pauses the game, laughing so hard he doubles over

“Okay, okay,” he says, wiping tears from his eyes. “Let’s take a deep breath. I’ll protect you, alright?”

You glare at him, clutching a pillow for moral support. “If I die, it’s your fault.”

Of course, ten minutes later, your character is cornered by a horde of zombies, and instead of helping, Wonwoo is laughing too hard to aim properly.

“You’re useless!” you yell, swatting at him with the pillow.

“You’re the one who threw the controller at me!” he retorts, holding his stomach as he laughs. It ended a few rounds later when you threatened to throw his controller out the window when he won't stop laughing at you.

The next time you hangout with him it was like any other evening with your group of friends.

You, Wonwoo, Mingyu, and Hao had gathered in the living room, sprawled across the couches and floor, the usual banter flying around. The air was relaxed, yet you couldn’t help but notice how quiet Wonwoo had been. You assumed it was just his usual introspective mood.

You were snuggled up on the couch, trying to avoid looking at him too much, your heart betraying you every time his voice sounded a little too close.

However, it didn’t take long for Mingyu and Hao to notice the silent war happening between you two. You were both pretending like nothing was going on, when, clearly, everything was going on.

Mingyu, as usual, didn’t have the patience to wait for you both to work things out on your own. He got up from the couch with a dramatic flair and walked toward the center of the room, crossing his arms.

“Alright,” he announces, his voice carrying a sense of authority that you knew meant trouble. “I’ve had enough.”

You and Wonwoo both look at him, completely clueless.

Mingyu takes a deep breath, looking between the two of you. “This nonsense ends today. No more pretending. I’m putting an end to this charade.”

“Charade? What charade?” you stammer, glancing at Wonwoo, who is equally confused

Minghao, who had been sitting quietly with his phone, lets out an exaggerated sigh, clearly more annoyed than anything else. He taps the screen for a moment before looking up, his voice dry as ever. “You two are hopeless.”

“Totally hopeless,” Mingyu agrees, then points directly at you. “You like him.”

You blink. “What? I—no, I don’t.”

“Oh, please,” Mingyu scoffs, rolling his eyes “You literally get flustered when he speaks to you. And let’s not forget how you always act weird when he does something nice. Like the chocolates he brought you? Come on.”

You glare at Mingyu. “You’re imagining things. I like sweets, that’s all.”

Mingyu leans closer, voice dropping to a mockingly serious tone. “Sweets, huh? That’s what they’re calling it these days?”

“I—” You start to protest, but before you can finish, Mingyu swivels toward Wonwoo with a pointed look

“And you!” Mingyu practically growls. “What’s with all the mysterious questions about what girls like? The whole ‘do girls like milk chocolate?’ and ‘roses or something else?’” He throws his arms up dramatically. “You don’t need a whole investigation, Wonwoo. We all know you’re talking about her. Stop playing dumb!”

You freeze.

Wonwoo, who had been fiddling with the corner of his hoodie sleeve, stiffens and turns an alarming shade of red. “I’m not… I wasn’t asking about her,” he stammers. “I mean, I… I thought…”

“Oh my god, he’s so obvious,” Mingyu mutters, rubbing his temples. He shoots a glare at Hao. “This is painful.”

Hao looks up from his phone, sighs deeply, then slowly stands up. “Okay, okay. I’ll handle this.” He walks over to you and Wonwoo, leaning in dramatically

“You two are in love with each other,” he declares matter-of-factly, as though he’s just stating the obvious.

You blink, your face lighting up in horror. “W-What?! No!”

Hao looks at you deadpan. “Come on. The way you two can’t look at each other without blushing, the way he buys you chocolate even though he hates it, and you, you’re terrified of scary games, but you still play them with him. Stop lying to yourselves.”

You turn to Wonwoo, who’s practically the color of a tomato. His eyes are wide, but he’s too embarrassed to speak. You feel your heart thudding loudly in your chest

“You... like me?” you ask, your voice trembling slightly, trying to hold back your surprise

Wonwoo shifts nervously on his feet. “I thought… I thought you liked someone else.”

“I thought you liked someone else!” you say, now feeling utterly ridiculous.

Mingyu, who had been watching this whole conversation unfold with the kind of smug satisfaction only he could have, claps his hands loudly. “Finally! Thank you, Hao. That took way too long.”

Minghao crosses his arms and leans against the wall, clearly satisfied with himself. “You two could have saved us all a lot of trouble, but fine. We’ll take the credit.”

You stare at Wonwoo, unsure what to say. The silence stretches on.

“So,” Mingyu begins with a grin, “now that you’re both on the same page… what’s the next step?”

Wonwoo looks at you, his face softening a little. “So… you don’t like someone else?”

You laugh nervously, glancing at Mingyu and Hao for moral support. “No, I don’t. You… you really thought that?”

He nods sheepishly, clearly relieved. “Well, I thought you were being kind of weird about everything, so…”

You smile softly, your heart racing. “I thought you were being weird.”

Mingyu claps his hands. “Look at that. You two are adorable. Don’t go making things awkward again, okay?”

“Yeah, no pressure,” Hao adds, “but seriously, finally.”

A week later, you’re back at the same spot on the couch. No more confusing, awkward questions. No more playing games to dodge the truth.

Just you and Wonwoo, finally figuring things out.

“So, you still hate chocolate?” you ask with a smirk, holding out a piece of your favorite chocolate, teasing him. It's cute because he got the chocolate, again.

“I hate it,” Wonwoo admits, but this time, he doesn't protest when you hand it to him. He takes the piece, chewing it slowly as he grimaces.

“You don’t have to eat it just because I like it,” you say with a laugh, watching him struggle with the sweetness

“I’m suffering for you,” he mutters, but there’s a fond smile on his lips now, something you’ve never seen him wear before

From the kitchen, Mingyu peeks his head out with a knowing look. “Told you it would work.”

Minghao follows him, rolling his eyes. “Do I get credit for this? Or are you two going to keep pretending we didn’t help?”

You roll your eyes playfully but can’t help the smile spreading across your face. You glance at Wonwoo, catching him staring at you with that soft, shy smile of his.

“Guess we owe them one,” you say quietly, not breaking eye contact.

“Guess so,” he agrees, his voice gentle. He reaches over, brushing a strand of hair out of your face, making your heart skip a beat.

Mingyu, hearing the sudden silence, turns to Hao and shrugs. “Well, they’ll figure it out.”

“Yeah,” Hao agrees, grinning. “They’re hopeless, but cute.”

And for the first time, it really feels like everything has finally clicked into place.

Could I request Smokescreen and Bumblebee both vying for your affections? Maybe reader is having trouble deciding and the boys get a little rowdy in their competition. They’re both hotties and I’d love to have these two fighting over me.

Something I love making a canon event in my AU ;)

Smokescreen x reader x Bumblebee

2nd person

female reader

love triangle

takes place in the TFP base

jealously, possessiveness, flirting, arguing

reader can understand Bumblebee

Well you’re definitely everyone’s favorite. These two aren’t the only ones who tend to flirt with you but they’re definitely the most exhausting. Not that you mind, of course. You can’t complain when there’s two handsome young mechs head over heels for you.

Both of them tend to take you out for fast rides, show off with their horsepowers and then start competing. A couple of times they even started arguing like kids. Bee’s angry beeping sounded hilarious, nevertheless it would always seem as if Smokescreen is losing the argument. It would always make you laugh. You’d jump in and tell them something like:

“Guys! Guys. Come on. Both of you are amazing. You’re equally fast and strong. No need to argue.”

“We’ll see about that!” Smokescreen would say and then challenge Bumblebee, arranging a race which he would probably lose.

Their competition never ends.

They would pamper you, take you wherever you want to go, make you giggle and laugh, shower you with compliments, head pets, tickles etc. They would simply be the best boyfriends, trying to win you.

At times it would make you feel like an object, a prize they’re fighting over. But you’d quickly shoo that fog away from your mind knowing they aren’t THAT immature and shallow. They’re just young scouts blinded by your internal and external beauty.

When you’d call Smokescreen “Smokey” he’d blush blue and get all flustered while desperately trying to seem chill and hunky. Bumblebee would get jealous but seeing how idiotic Smokescreen is behaving would make him “wheeze”.

Calling Bumblebee “Bee” isn’t much of a big deal knowing almost everyone calls him that. But when he hears it coming from your sweet mouth he can’t help but melt into a puddle. Smokescreen would get hella jealous and pout in the back like a little kid.

Smokey’s nicknames for you would be cupcake or baby girl or doll while Bee’s would be daisy or sunflower or my little sparkling.

Bumblebee’s love language is definitely physical touch while Smokescreen’s is… well. Questionable. His hilarious attempts of flirting would actually make you feel butterflies in your tummy from time to time as he’d make you laugh. That’s all he needs to hear. So we can say humor is his love language.

When they’d find out which flower is your favorite, both of them would buy you a bouquet and race back to the base.

“I got to her first!!!” Smokescreen would sulk while holding the bouquet he got.

“Beep boopbeep beepboopbeep BEEPBOOP!!!” Bumblebee would talk back while also holding a bouquet of your favorite flowers.

You’d accept both gifts and laugh at their childish behavior. Sometimes even Optimus would jump in and do the ✨epic OP speech✨ to calm the situation down which would last till approximately next morning.

It’s easier to laugh it off than to choose… But one day you will have to. This is not healthy for them nor you. Perhaps, in the end, it would be the best to choose neither of them and move on…

It’s up to you.

Hello, my sunflowers

This one was a little bit hard to write as it's very close to my heart. Every word I pen here comes from a place of understanding, a shared experience that is often difficult to articulate.

To anyone who has experienced this or has gone through something similar. I want you to know that you are not alone.

I see you. I see your pain, your struggle, and your bravery.

Remember that your worth is not defined by what happened to you. You are not a victim; you are a survivor, and that word carries power. Please, allow yourself to feel whatever you need to feel. It’s okay to be angry, to cry, to question everything. Healing is a journey, and there is no right or wrong way to do it.

Lean on those who support you—friends, family, or even a stranger who understands. Surround yourself with those who lift you up and validate your feelings. You deserve that support, the space to express your truth without judgment. It’s okay to ask for help.

And to anyone reading this who might be struggling, I hope you find the courage to seek healing. It’s okay to take your time. Be gentle with yourself. Allow yourself to breathe, to hope, and to dream of brighter days.

You are never alone, and your voice matters. Keep speaking, keep sharing, and know that you are deeply valued, just as you are.

love you guys💛

************

Trent is the perfect boyfriend.

The best thing that's ever happened to you.

Every day with him feels like a dream come true, straight out of the fairy tales you cherished as a little girl. Those enchanting Disney movies you used to watch painted a picture of an ideal partner, and somehow, against all odds, Trent embodies every single one of those fantasies.

His love for you is patient, kind, and selfless. It's the most wonderful thing in your life. He’s your forever partner, the one person you want to be with, the one who makes your heart sing louder than any other thing on this planet.

He’s the kind of lover who cherishes you like you’re precious, like he’s holding a rare, beautiful thing in his hands and can't believe he’s lucky enough to keep it. There’s a reverence in the way he touches you, gentle fingertips grazing your skin as if mapping out every detail he wants to memorize. In those moments, when it’s just the two of you, all the walls around your heart crumble, and you let yourself be vulnerable in a way you’ve never dared with anyone else.

When he kisses you, it’s like the whole world fades away. His lips are warm, soft, like homecoming and wonder wrapped up in one perfect moment. He doesn’t rush, doesn’t expect anything from you, as though the very act of kissing you is enough for him, enough to fulfill all the love he has in his heart.

You’ve caught him staring at you sometimes, that gentle smile on his face, a look that says he’s more than smitten—he’s mesmerized. And when you ask him what he’s thinking, he just laughs, shakes his head, and murmurs, “I’m just so lucky.”

And the way he takes care of you? It's like second nature to him.

He makes sure you eat three meals a day, and he won't let you skip breakfast even when you're running late. He massages your shoulders on workweek nights when your neck and upper back throb from sitting at your desk for hours. He takes you out to your favorite spots in town and buys you bouquets of flowers when you least expect it. He calls you beautiful every day, not only when you've spent hours getting ready for a date, but also when you wake up in the morning, disheveled and sleepy.

When he’s around, your tea is always at just the right temperature, your hands are never cold, and he somehow remembers things you’ve long forgotten you even mentioned. Like the chocolate cake you said you liked once on your third date, which he now bakes for your birthday with that messy kitchen and flour-dusted smile that never fails to make you fall for him all over again. Or the way he bought you that scarf you adored but didn’t have the chance to buy before it sold out, surprising you with it in the soft, early light of a wintry morning.

And he listens.

Listens to your problems, your complaints, your dreams. Listens to your ramblings about work, your latest obsession with a new book, or the way the rain taps against your window. Everything.

He doesn’t just hear your words; he absorbs them, reflecting them back with the kind of empathy that makes you feel understood in a way you never knew was possible.

Even on your hardest days, he finds ways to bring light, like holding you tightly when you feel the weight of the world pressing down on your shoulders. His embrace says everything words can’t; it's a silent promise that you’re not alone, that he’s there, solid and steady, no matter what life throws your way.

With him, there are no masks, no pretenses—just you, loved in every flawed, beautiful, unfiltered piece. And as he brushes a stray hair from your face, fingers lingering a moment too long, he'll murmurs something that steals your breath, something you’ll carry with you in every moment you’re together and even those you’re apart: “I’d choose you a thousand times over.”

And deep down, you know you’d do the same.

For a year now, he’s been your soulmate. And for three months, he has been your lover.

Which is why he doesn't understand why you’re looking at him like that right now. Like he's going to hurt you.

"Hey, hey, what's wrong?" he whispers, voice softened with concern, his hand is warm and gentle as he cups your face, bringing you back to the present. His thumb traces small, reassuring circles along your cheekbone as his eyes search yours. His knees are pressed into the mattress as he leans forward, settling between your legs, his arms holding up his weight above you.

Your gaze is fixated on the ceiling, refusing to meet his. Because right now, you know he’d see the fear and panic that’s making your heart race. His fingers skim along your collarbone, then the curve of your neck, sending shivers down your spine. Your body tenses against his touch, your thighs instinctively clamping shut, trapping him between them.

You try to swallow, but your throat is dry, and for a moment, you think you’re going to choke on your own fear.

"Sweetheart," Trent whispers, his voice so gentle you almost feel like crying, "What's wrong?" His warm breath dances across your skin as he nuzzles you, his lips brushing the corner of your mouth. "You're shaking, baby." When you still don't respond, he takes a chance, leaning in for a gentle kiss that has all the softness of a summer breeze.

But he doesn’t move forward as he usually does. His weight is still above yours, his hands braced on either side of your head, the heat of his body hovering over you. His gaze is intent, watching your every reaction as he whispers, "You're safe with me."

But you’re too afraid to say anything.

You’re feel stuck. Like you're being pinned down, it will feel like the worst of your nightmares come true. You can't do this. The mere thought makes you nauseous. Your breath hitches as you force out your first words, "I...I'm s—sorry."

“Babe, there’s nothing to be sorry about. Is something bothering you?"

You shake your head, unable to speak.

He leans down a little more and holds you a little tighter. "Hey, I know you, and I know you’re not okay. Is it me?"

You shake your head, and his eyebrows knit in confusion. “So what is it?” he asks, lifting up off you and sitting up. His voice is soft, careful, the way you'd speak to a wounded animal. His hands stroke down the sides of your arms, then up over your shoulders, massaging the tension in your neck.

But this is too much. You can't hold yourself together any longer, and a sob tears from your throat. You’re not sure if he's expecting this reaction, but he doesn’t even flinch.

Instead, he pulls back, and his arms go around you, holding you to his chest as he settles on his side, cradling your body against his own.

"It’s okay," he says, kissing the top of your head. "We can stop." His voice is calm, but you can hear the concern beneath it, the unanswered questions.

A minute of silence passes before you muster enough courage to say, "It's just..." Your voice breaks on the next word, and you clear your throat, trying to find your words. "I'm sorry," you whisper, wiping at your tears. "It’s just...I just-" You hiccup, interrupting yourself.

He looks down at you, and even with the darkness, you can feel his gaze on you. You close your eyes, but he's not deterred. Instead, he strokes your cheek, his finger brushing away a stray tear.

“My love,” he whispers, and the softness of his voice is all you need to break.

You burst into a new round of tears, and he lets out a low exhale before he pulls you closer against him, wrapping you in his arms. "Shhh," he murmurs against your hair. "I've got you."

Your cries turn into sobs, and he kisses your forehead, stroking your hair away from your face. “Just breathe,” he whispers, his breath dancing across your temple.

It takes you a few minutes, but your tears eventually ebb away, and you lay against him, your body wrapped around his.

For a while, he doesn’t ask any questions. He just holds you, letting you breathe, letting your heartbeat slow.

Then his hand starts up again, and this time, he runs his fingertips along the edge of your jaw, tracing the line of your throat. He leans down and kisses you softly on the lips, and you melt into him. "You can tell me anything," he says. "Even if it's hard." His mouth is against your ear, and goosebumps break out over your skin. "Nothing scares me about you."

His voice is low, rough with emotion, and something about it makes you feel so safe.

And before you realize it, you're telling him everything.

[chiosblog]

For the "soft asks to get to know people" game :)

1, 2, 4, 19, 21 e 29

Nessuna pressione, ce n'erano un sacco e non riuscivo a scegliere :P

Graziee💛 amo rispondere a questi ask!

1. What song make you feel better?

Hard choice cause i have so many songs that bring good feelings. Two of my favorites are Temporary High by Syence and Sunkissed by Khai Dreamsb

2. What's your feel good movie?

The ones that remind me of happy memories from childhood are surely the ones i come back the most especially films like Sinbad, Cars and Kung fu Panda.

Another film that is in this list is 'Mamma mia' cause it has that specific happy/nostalgic feeling to it that makes my little heart do a little jump.

4. What flower would you like to be given?

I have never been a big flower fan in the past lol but now i have this special love for sunflowers and the happy summery images they create in my head

I always got that weird feeling looking at them from really close lol but its something i've grown to like a lot actually.

19. Most important thing in your life?

Big question, at the top of my head I would say my cat cause my cats has been the only source of happiness for a big part of my life.

I know it sounds weird or completly crazy but now i think is the A team lmao

Fandoms has always been my only place to be *truly* me and find people to connect with and this one is just the right one, it just make me so happy 💛

21. If you could tell your past self one thing, what would it be?

I dont want to sound too sad here but back then during school I desperately needed to know if there was something broken in me and why I felt things so differently from other people my age.

Things eventually did change once I got to really understand myself more (thanks tumblr) but I wish i knew back then that there was other people like me around

29. Morning, afternoon or night?

Well it depends on the season but I like mornings especially when I dont have to go to work lol

I just love the possibilities the day can bring and the bright sky and the quiet breeze of the early morning

[wiltedprayers]

🏐 🌻 👥 for the emoji ask game :)

thanks sm for the ask!!

🏐 — fave sport

I used to do field hockey when I was younger and was pretty good at it so field hockey I guess? im not a big sports fan lol sorry!

🌻 — fave flower

this is soo cute and the emoji is appropriate — i love love love sunflowers!! I think they're full of life and as cheesy as it sounds whenever i see one it brightens my day. they're the embodiment of hope to me 💛

👥️ — otp

well I guess it'd be between winnix (because of course) and... hannigram, from nbc's hannibal. it's my favorite show and will graham is like one of my favorite characters of all time so yeah, they make me a bit insane.

[musette22]

Happy birthday! Weird question, what’s your favorite animal and flower/plant?

Thank youuuuu! 🥰 Not a weird question, I love this question! My favourite animal is (very boring answer)... dogs 🥺 I'm just a huge dog person, specifically when it comes to this one! (My sleeping beauty Lily 💞)

As for my favourite flower or plant... That's a tricky one because there are so many plants and flowers that I love, but I think I'm going to go with the sunflower, because it's bright and yellow and it makes me happy! 🥰🌻💛 What are yours??

Thanks again for your lovely message, darling! Hope you have a fabulous day <33

[lifemod17]

34, 39 and 40 for the ask game <3

good morning to you my darling!! 💛🥰

34: what's your favorite flower?

sunflowers are my absolute favorite!!! you can imagine how emotional I got when one of my dearest friend secretly sent me sunflower legos for my birthday last year🥺🥺

39: do you stay up late?

i do not. i am an early bird through and through! Drift can confirm, i wake up at like 3:30am - 4am just so i can enjoy quiet time while everyone is asleep at the ass crack of dawn. it also gives me enough time to wake up so i can "start" my day NOT being a grumpy gremlin haha

40: do you like the beach? do you prefer it sunny or cloudy?

i LOOOOVVVEEEE the beach!!! i miss her so much i haven't been to one in so long!! i don't mind that it's sunny as long as there's a little shade i can hang out at. so i guess whatever is in between sunny and cloudy

[sparklehoard]

I have been summoned it is ask time (answer as many or as few of these as you like!)

if you could have a pocket-sized version of any creature, alive or extinct, real or fictional or mythical, what would you choose?

did you have any imaginary friends as a kid?

what’s your favorite cold-weather meal? What’s your favorite warm-weather meal? What’s your favorite grey/rainy-day meal?

if you could receive a flower crown right now what flowers would you want it to be made from?

what would you change about your room if you had unlimited budget and manpower

what song are you obsessed with now and why?

do you know how to slow dance/ballroom dance?

what’s your opinion on cream cheese?

Had this saved for a rainy day I guess. God do I need right now. My only free time for the next 2 weeks is like the hours I wait to let the dogs outside at the housesitting job I'm at.

Watch out this'll be a long one. Pocket sized animal friend?I feel like I'd want a seal? Take it out for instant serotonin. Let it swim in the sink. Leet it swim with me in lakes. Although I'm not sure how to take care of a seal. I hope it's magically sturdy.

No imaginary friends but as a kid I played "imaginary boyfriend" a lot with friends and my sisters.

Fav cold weather meal? Stew!

Fav warm weather meal? Stuff with green onions! Like potato salad and chicken on rice with green onion and cucumbers!

Fav grey/rainy day meal? My local cafés curry chicken,sweet potato and carrots soup! Order it with their special Vietnamese coffee and sit by the window and watch the storm rage on while you eat 💛

What kind of flower crown would I want right now? Gotta go with classic dandelions. I like how they smell. But if I were feeling a bit fancier I would've chosen lilacs. Maybe little sunflowers too?

What would I change about my room unlimited?

No more white walls that's for sure. A mattress long enough for my freaking body would be nice. A whole bunch of shelves around my art/computer desk for easy access to everything. And a way to maximize my closet so I could SEE all my clothing options at once. And like...functionally I'd like to get my whole room better insulated. It's so cold all the time. Even in the summer.

A song I'm obsessed with right now. Uhm it's actually Hey I Don't Work Here by Tom Cardy. It's like a jokey song but it's got a catchy beat and a bit about lifeguards I can feel in my soul.

Do I know how to slowdance/ ballroom dance? No not at all. Only the country two step really. It can be disguised as a slow dance.

Opinion on cream cheese? Aside from cheesecake I don't like it in anything sweet. But it is a GOD to all other bagel toppings.

🍷 🫂 🏖️ for hawks!

-selfshippery

It was back when Hawks & I were friends at first. When he & I spend more time together & getting to know each other, my feelings for Hawks grew slowly. It was when how sweet & caring he is. He even checked up on me to see how I'm doing when he & I are apart. For Hawks, it was back when he & I were friends. When he got to know me more, he started to have feelings for me. He tried to push his feelings down until he couldn't anymore.

👻 - Do they cuddle you when you're scared or do they cling to you when they're scared from watching a horror movie?

Hawks cuddles me when I'm scared from watching a horror movie

🫂 - How do they comfort you when you're sad?

He comforts me by holding me in his arms, wrapping his wings around me & uses his words of comfort

💐 - What flowers would you get your f/o? What flowers would your f/o get you?

We both give each other sunflowers 'cause Hawks & I love sunflowers!

🏖 - What would a beach date with your f/o look like?

Walking on the sand while holding hands & get some tan

Just a casual date to one of my favorite places. But we mainly go to the mall for my birthday

Watching a romantic movie & eating popcorn at home

[theladyofgolleruscomic]

It’s Webcomic Day on Twitter! So I wanted to share a few fun facts about TLoG characters 💛

Juno (he/him)

Juno is a D&D character I made in 2020 and played in one of my first campaigns as a hexblade warlock! His favorite flower is the sunflower, and his favorite food is cream cheese danishes with chocolate chips.

Song I associate with him: Social Cues by Cage the Elephant

Minho (he/him)

Minho is a very anxious person who loves music. So, when he gets nervous, he taps out a little beat on his thigh to calm himself down. Also, he has a southern American accent!

Song I associate with him: Welcome Home by Radical Face

(Ava and Mel are characters originally created by my partner! So she helped me assemble the next few fun facts for them 💛)

Avarice (she/they)

When Ava was a kiddo, her nickname was “Scrapes” because they were very scrappy and prone to injury (this hasn’t changed). She’s also terrible with navigation (who let her be a captain??)

Song I associate with them: Dumb Dumb by Mazie

Melody (she/her)

While Melody often reads books about ancient magical curses and obscure lore, she does occasionally enjoy a romance novel~

And while she’ll never admit it, her favorite color is yellow!

Song I associate with her: Oh No! by Marina and the Diamonds

Bonus side character: Bunni (she/her)

Bunni was my younger sister’s very first D&D character — a circle of spores druid. There also exists in the comic and island that my sister named and created the lore for!

Song I associate with her: What a Wonderful World by The Innocence Mission
