🍰🥹 for the ask game! (@raylex)

so sorry for not getting to this earlier!!!!! i wasnt expecting anything and tumblr likes to not tell me i was sent an ask esp on mobile...... going w luffy since ive been watching op while at work

🍰: What sort of fun or sweet nicknames do you and your f/o have for each other?

theyre simple silly nicknames and very on the nose. theyre not super creative with them. luffy calls kelsey crybaby in a positive light and kelsey would laugh it off bc she knows its meant to be endearing, besides shes not much of a crybaby anymore since shes met him. kelsey would be far more cheesy while still being on the nose, like monkey... goofy... her joyboy....

🥹: What is your f/o's favorite thing about you?

i like to think its a mutual favorite thing!! they like how they balance each other out! kelsey always makes sure luffy stays focused and have a level head during high stress times. but luffy always makes sure kelsey stays open minded and positive with a silly attitude... they like it how easy it is to open up to each other and express their feelings and frustrations

binge read kickoff and I’m sooooo obsessed with it. >.< manifesting someone like Satoru. This might seem dumb but I’m just curious to know what satoru’s friends (Suguru, nanami etc) think of reader?

but anywayyy, thank you for this amazing story and have a great day! :)

hiiii my darling omg i'm so happy you've enjoyed kickoff so far!! it means sm to me :''')

omg not dumb at all i would love to answer this!! i think i answered a similar question to this before but i can't remember what i said xD so we'll start fresh haha i mean it's been a while anyway

suguru: oh yes i also got an ask that was wondering if kickoff suguru has feelings for reader or was romantically interested in her since he seems to be a lil flirty sometimes haha but no i think he's just naturally flirty LOL. he's definitely aware of gojo's feelings for her even tho gojo never told him that or anything, i'd like to think he knew gojo had feelings before even gojo knew SDKJFHSDKJF. but yea anywho he def thinks reader is cool n is kinda different from the girls he's used to seeing in gojo's company n i think that's also why he's intrigued by her bc he's like what's up w this girl that she's got my best friend glancing over at the sidelines every two seconds during practice LMFAO. tbh i can see kickoff suguru n kickoff reader being really great friends, they kinda have similar personalities :)

nanami: he has hella respect for her because he likes people who have a craft or a skill that they're passionate about lol. especially if it's something niche, so he thinks that reader knowing a lot about photography n has really fancy cameras etc is really cool. he's mostly indifferent/disinterested in what she has to do w gojo, he doesn't really care about their status of are they friends? are they dating? sorts of stuff, but i'd like to think he pulls her aside sometimes to ask her questions about her camera specs just cause he wants to learn more about it

choso: pls kickoff choso is soooooooo go with the flow, two braincells, smooth brained, slightly grumpy, chronically tired but very sweet hearted in my head. tbh i don't even think he knows reader's name n i'm p sure he's mistaken her as being three different people bc he just cannot cognitively retain faces for the life of him LMFAO. yea he was mostly indifferent n i'm ngl reader was probs invisible to him for the most part BUT when he saw her slap the shit out of ren at the bar he was like :0 god damn that girl's sick. and now his interest has been piqued n he’s like 80% sure he knows her name now. omg i feel like kickoff choso n reader would not get along for some reason skdfhsdflk choso's nonchalant cynicism would clash w reader's anxious optimism

other players on the team: they all are just really hoping that she's getting their good angles when she's takin her snapshots HAHAH. i'd like to think some of them be mewing on the field 💀💀

coach yaga: “STOP DISTRACTING MY STAR PLAYER!!!!!!!!!!! I NEED HIS EYES ON THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

LOL hope this answers bb <3

[aanoia]

Also also what about mine by Taylor swift with Remus?!?

It's out finally! I don't know why this was so hard to make lmfao.

Remus Lupin x reader words; 2226 (222 has been showing up EVERYWHERE and it's funny bc i found out my life path number is 11/2) song; Mine by T Swizzle (Taylor Swift) Warnings; death? idek gonna be working on requests for a while tonight by the way so expect more coming out! I just got my own henna cones bc im obsessed with henna i think it's so gorgeous (i would go to an actual henna artist to get it done bc i SUCK (for now) and we love supporting small businesses, but the only time there's one in my city is during the fair so i decided to buy my own) anywho have fun, LOVE YOU LOVING-AND-DREAMING &lt;3

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

You were in college working part time waitin' tables

Left a small town, never looked back

“Mr. Lupin, would you like to explain what is so interesting about Miss L/n, or may we continue with no distractions?” Professor McGonagall asked and I looked up from my paper as Sirius let out little laughs. Remus turned red as he smiled sheepishly at McGonagall.

“You may continue.” He said quietly and she nodded, smirking slightly.

“Thank you for your permission.” She said sarcastically and continued. Remus glanced at me again and I looked back down to my paper, pretending not to notice.

I was a flight risk with a fear of falling

Wonderin' why we bother with love if it never lasts

“Siriu-”

Sirius put his finger on my lips, silencing me as Remus tried to pull his friend away. “No, listen up, missy. I understand your parents suck at being married, mine do too, but that’s no reason to keep rejecting my poor best friend here when you’re obviously in love with him. You will go out with him, and you will have a good time. Understood?” He demanded and I nodded, flashing Remus a small smile.

I say, "Can you believe it?"

As we're lying on the couch

The moment, I can see it

Yes, yes, I can see it now

“I’m so glad you said yes.” Remus said softly, placing a gentle kiss on the top of my head.

I giggled quietly, “Yes, I am too, Rem.” I sighed happily as the fire quietly crackled, shaking my head slightly at the whole reason we were officially together. Damn Sirius.

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?

You put your arm around me for the first time

My laughter echoed throughout the courtyard as I ran from Remus as quickly as I could. My legs burned and they involuntarily slowed, allowing Remus to catch up to me and wrap his arms around me in a big hug, swinging us side to side as we both laughed loudly.

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter

You are the best thing that's ever been mine

I slapped my hand over my mouth, trying to quiet my breathing as we hid from the caretaker. I looked at Remus with wide eyes and he just grinned at me, proud he finally got me to break a rule and go out past curfew. I shook my head, thankful my hand was covering the small smile gracing my lips.

Flash forward, and we're taking on the world together

And there's a drawer of my things at your place

“I’m home!” Remus called out loudly and I snorted, walking out of the kitchen and leaning against the doorframe with my arms crossed.

“Just move in already.” I suggested and he smiled and shook his head.

“Sure.” He agreed and my eyes widened, my arms dropped to my sides as my back straightened out.

“Really?” He nodded with a smile and I laughed happily, throwing my arms around him in a big hug. “Finally.”

You learn my secrets, and you figure out why I'm guarded

You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes

“We are not your parents, Y/n.” Remus said, trying to grab ahold of my hand but I pulled away, tears stinging my eyes.

“You’re not, Rem, you obviously aren’t. But what if I am?” I whispered, a tear falling down my cheek.

He wiped the tear away and let his hand rest on my face, “What if you aren’t?” He challenged, kissing my forehead softly.

But we got bills to pay

We got nothing figured out

“No, only two. If we have three, one will feel left out.” I said and Remus shook his head.

“No, everything happens in trios. They’re much better than duos.”

\ “I don’t care. Two is better anyway, easier to take care of.”

“But thre-”

I glared at the man in front of me, “I don’t care. Two cats, that’s it.”

When it was hard to take

Yes, yes, this is what I thought about

“You got three, didn’t you?” I asked as I stood at the front door, already hearing the loud meowing from inside.

Remus smiled sheepishly and shrugged, “Perhaps.”

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?

You put your arm around me for the first time

My hand flew to my mouth as waves crashed against the shore.

Remus knelt in front of me, a nervous smile on his face as James, Sirius, Lily, and the newest member of our family, Harry, stood around us. Sirius held tightly onto the big camera as he chanted yes.

“Remus- yes, oh my, yes!” I exclaimed, not giving him time to stand up and instead kneeled down to kiss him, forgetting about the ring as his back hit the sand, our laughter following as a loud click and flash filled our senses.

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter

You are the best thing that's ever been mine

“Remember, no cake in my face.” I warned Remus as we were about to cut our wedding cake.

He smiled, “Of course.”

I winked to Sirius, who once again had a camera, and held in my laughs as the knife sunk into the cake. Instead of waiting for the piece to be fully cut, I grabbed a chunk of cake from the opposite side - the camera clicked and flashed - and smashed it into Remus’ face. He froze before wiping the cake from his eyes and looking at me with a familiar glint in his eyes.

“I’m gonna get you.”

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?

You saw me start to believe for the first time

The lights of the eiffel tower shined brightly onto the water as I watched with awe in my eyes. Remus looked at me fondly, love coursing through his veins as he gazed at his wife.

“You’re beautiful.” He whispered and I looked at him, a blush spilling over my cheeks. Truthfully, he was the beautiful one. The way the lights highlighted his face and sparkled in his honey brown eyes entranced me as I smiled.

“You’re beautiful, as well.”��

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter

You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Oh-oh, oh

Remus narrowed his eyes at the girl Sirius brought to Christmas dinner. Usually, it didn’t matter to him what anyone was wearing, as long as they liked it it was fine. But wearing something that's easily comparable to what a stripper would wear to a dinner where you were informed about children being present, was a little far.

“Remus.” I gently grabbed his hand. “I know you don’t like her, I don’t either, but please be civil.”

“What if we prank her?” He whispered back.

I snorted, but my smile dropped as I realized he was being serious, “No, what?”

He nodded, “Please?”

I hesitated before sighing, “Fine. Let’s do it.”

I quietly walked back from the bathroom and froze as I saw the prank had worked. Sirius’ new girl was screeching loudly as her skin turned green and warts popped up randomly. I looked Remus in the eye as he held in his laughter. I winked at him and he smiled proudly, we did it. The best part, by far, was the loud giggling of baby Harry as he watched the witch begin to cry angrily. I picked up the boy and laughed with him, gently tickling his sides only making his laughs harder.

And I remember that fight, 2:30 a.m

As everything was slipping right out of our hands

“No, goddamnit, Y/n, it’s my life!” Remus yelled and I shook my head.

“No, Remus, it’s our life! It became our life when you married me!” I yelled back louder, briefly glancing at the clock and internally wincing. 2:26 AM the clock read. 

“I want to be a teacher, what’s so bad about that?” 

I threw my hands up, “Do you listen to me, Remus? I’ve told you over and over it’s fucking Hogwarts! I love that place but these past few years it’s gotten dangerous! I won’t let you teach there.” I explained as tears stung at my eyes.

“I don’t care! You don’t get an opinion on this!”

I ran out crying, and you followed me out into the street

I pushed the door open roughly and ran to the street, the rain beating down on me as I sobbed and fell to my knees. The water collected on the rough cement soaked my pajama pants, only making me cry harder at the small inconvenience. 

Braced myself for the goodbye

'Cause that's all I've ever known

The door slammed open again and I shut my eyes tightly, preparing myself for the inevitable. My body shook, from the cold or the crying, I really didn't know. Probably both. I waited for him to ask for the rings back and leave me there on my own.

I opened my eyes and watched Remus’ figure get closer as I struggled to take the rings off.

“What are you doing?” He asked, fear in his voice.

“I already know you want them back.”

Then you took me by surprise

You said, "I'll never leave you alone"

To my surprise, he wrapped his arms around me tightly, swaying side to side slightly like he always did.

“Never.” He whispered.

You said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water

And every time I look at you, it's like the first time

“Y/n?” He asked above the rain.

“Yeah?”

“Do you remember when we were running around the courtyard because you were being a grumpy pants and wouldn’t hug me?”

I nodded and smiled fondly at the memory. “Yeah, and then you caught me by the lake and we almost fell in.” He pulled away and looked at me fondly.

I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter

She is the best thing that's ever been mine"

“That’s the moment I knew I was gonna marry you one day. That’s when I knew I loved you and never wanted to be away from you.”

I looked at him with a small smile, “Really?”

He nodded, “I swear on my beautiful wife.”

Hold on and make it last

Hold on, never turn back

I sat quietly on the train, reading my book as nostalgia filled my body. Remus sat next to me, his coat draped over his eyes so he could rest. I glanced at him and sighed, shaking my head and wondering how he convinced me to not only let him teach, but also have me co-teach Care of Magical Creatures with Hagrid.

“This is the only open compartment.” A voice said and I looked up from my book. My breath left my body as I saw a familiar boy walk through the compartment door, a boy and a girl following after him. 

The boy looked at me with a small smile. “I’m sorry. Is it alright if we sit in here? Everywhere else is full.” 

I nodded with a smile, “Of course.” He glanced at Remus’ sleeping figure and sat across from me.

“My names Harry Potter, and this is Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. Are you a new professor?” Harry asked and my heart clenched.

“Yes, I am. Professor L/n, pleasure to meet you three, I’ll be co-teaching with Hagrid, I’m sure you know him. This lump next to me is my husband, also a new professor. Professor Lupin, unfortunately he’s exhausted so he’s simply napping.”

Harry nodded in understanding, “Is he our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher?”

“Yes, he is.”

(Hold on) you made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter

(Hold on) you are the best thing that's ever been mine

“Well, well, well.” I said, leaning against the doorframe as I watched Remus and Sirius hug. Sirius pulled away and looked at me with a smirk. “If it isn’t Sirius Black, back from Azkaban.”

“I’m innocent, Y/n/n. I swea-”

I cut him off with a big hug, winking at Remus who smiled at me gratefully. “I know you are, Sirius. I know.”

Do you believe it?

We're gonna make it now

“If we di-”

“We won’t.” Remus persisted.

“Rem. If we die, just know how much I love you, alright? You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me, and I’m so grateful to have you as my husband and my best friend.”

Remus sighed and nodded, “I love you too. But we won’t die, my love. We’ve got someone to live for.” I smiled as we both looked to our newborn son who gurgled quietly in his sleep.

“Yes, we have someone to live for.”

And I can see it (yeah, yeah)

I watched in horror as the group of Death Eater’s pointed their wands together. I grabbed Remus’ hand tightly as they muttered a powerful spell together, sending Remus and I flying back before the world went dark and Sirius’ voice filled my eyes.

“Finally.” He said.

“We’ve been waiting forever for you two to die.” A new voice said. James?

“You two gits, be quiet.” Lily. “Welcome home.”

I can see it now

🌙 dev log; aug.

12,096 words (+531)

a long time coming, yes. this should've been out sooner but i was recovering from food poising, apologies 🥲 aside from that— this month has been full of surprises to say the least.

firstly, the character portraits i intended to put out before the demo's release will be discontinued. i was super bummed about it, but unfortunately, the features that were once free to me and others now cost money. i'm incredibly hesitant to trust the ai company with my limited funds from some reviews i've read about people cheated. for example, they got locked out of their accounts after paying a subscription. also, how they would take extra credits from me to generate the picture made me even more suspicious of them. i'm not sure; we'll see. i just wanted to share the portraits of all the characters with you guys. i apologize ):

secondly, on a more lighter note, i'm considering gathering a small group of beta testers together! i'm not sure how to go about it but i think it would help with the editing/proofreading process a TON. so i'll keep you all updated on that :D in terms of the slight increase in words, i was able to add more words to set up some scenes that were lacking and it turned out nicely. i've also decided to change l/s to l for simplicity. (m!liroy and f!lorelai). additionally, i've been doing some character work in my notes book. giving all the ros therapy sessions (coz they all need it) and it's been SO GOOD. SO DEEP TOO. which gives me more content to write for my patreon in terms of side stories and whatnot.

lastly, i'm finishing up tumblr drafts and any asks i have left. sorry for the delays ): i haven't forgotten you anons. all of this will be posting some time during the first week of sep.

anywho, thanks for reading. your patience is so greatly appreciated. it makes things a lot easier. thank you. 🫶

The Runaway's Gamble! (pomodori . .?)

Thank you so much for the ask @niemalsetwas ♡

Okay! So The Runaway's Gamble is a fic that is set post everything in Discworld, and centers around the concept of Young Sam feeling the need to runaway...he does this...in a not great way, right into on Moist von Lipwig's mail coach as he sets off to personally deliver an important letter to someone in the Sto Plains (take your bets now as to who the receiver might be hehe)

Since Moist is in his gray suit Young Sam doesn't recognize Moist as the Postmaster...meanwhile Moist is having a panic attack and is internally screaming cause "oh gods that's the commander of the watch's son!! I'm doomed!!"

To which Moist tries to subtly figure out why Young Sam has run away from home, and tries to just as subtly convince him to Not Do That.

Angua ends up joining them, as she was sent to track down Young Sam...and now Young Sam has two known runaways trying to subtly convince him to Not Be A Runaway and Go Home

Shenanigans ensue

The way the wip is going....it's probably going to be longer than three chapters lol Cause there's just so many delicious small nuances I'd love to explore

Especially, though not limited to: Moist and Angua friendship (I just think they'd have so much to talk about)

I don't entirely remember if I shared this on tumblr already... I'm pretty sure I shared it with Babblish at some point

ANYWHO a small rough snippet:

“I may have to update my message to her.” Angua shrugged. “So you’re just… going to continue tailing us until I convince the kid to return home?” “Obviously.” “Dressed like that?” Angua stared at him blankly.  “He’s a smart kid, and if he catches just a hair of you, everything can go kaput!” Angua volleyed with a smug smile, and pulled a little something from her back pocket. “Turn around.” Moist raised a brow, the sort of brow that suggested ‘you and I both know there’s a dirty joke in there somewhere’. “Just do it,” growled Angua. Moist raised his hands, and turned, wordlessly, eyebrow still arched. Once he realized what Angua was doing, he started whistling through her change process so not to hear any hairy details.  A snuffling huff caught Moist’s attention again. He turned.  It was Angua, with a bandana, a pretty one to be sure, a blue base color with cherry red and gold designs. But it didn’t change the fact that it was Angua, in wolf form, with a bandana. Moist clapped his hands together, and couldn’t hold the sarcasm back as he said, “inspired.”  Her upper muzzle curled. Angua swore she’d never mention this was Carrot’s idea. 

And then a newer one just a bit later, still rough. I'm trying to work on how to make the difference between them speaking Morkporkian and Überwaldian distinct beyond just saying 'they're speaking Überwaldian' unfortunately I'm not a linguist lol and am doing just that...for now, we'll see... perhaps I'll change the quotations to another kind perhaps to the guillemet («...») to indicate a language change hmm... ANYWAYS:

"I have insights I want to share with him too," whispered Angua, unprompted. She was speaking in Überwaldian once more, meaning she didn't want to be mistakenly overheard by the sleeping Young Sam. Moist looked up from the fire, and halted in his log poking. He spared a glance at Young Sam, to ensure he was still asleep before responding, likewise in Überwaldian, "I don't know how well the bandana trick can work in your human form. Your physique, if you don't mind me saying, isn't too forgettable." Angua sneered at him, a human faced equivalent of a warning growl. Moist raised his hands in airs of harmlessness, "I'm not saying anything that isn't known, Baroness." Angua rolled her eyes, and clicked her tongue. "You're right," she said, sneer turning into a smirk as her posture changed to a more confident position, "I do have an unforgettable body." Moist nodded his agreement in the airs of one concurring that 'yes the painting of Reclined Nude with Vase and Flowers is beautiful'. "So you see how it'd be difficult for you to talk to him like this, in uniform no less." "But not impossible," said Angua straightening. Moist sat up a bit more, attentive. The hairs on the back of his neck standing up a bit at the promise of Angua's mischievous tones. Moist could sniff mischief like a spider could sense the change of an air current over it's many little hairs. He leaned forward with a grin, mischief in persona. "Yeees?" It may have been the firelight, but for a moment Angua could have sworn his eyes glinted and shon. It was a little distracting. She shook her head, and powered on ahead, "Well, you're good at disguises..." "Yeees?" "Perhaps, uh...I could-" "Steal a set of clothes off a clothesline, and have your make up done in a certain way unrecognizable to yourself?" Moist said all in one breath. His grin grew toothier by the vowel. "Oh. Um, yes actually." "What are your thoughts on eyepatches?" "I'd probably hate it." "Excellent!"

As for imbottigliando pomodori (working title) that is a mp100 Reigen centric fic that came to me at the end of summer last year while helping my aunt harvest make and bottle tomatoes for tomato sauce.

The fic is one of many I enjoy exploring in which Reigen learns healthier ways to improve as a person instigated by himself. Cause I love it when Reigen decides to better himself, and doesn't want to get left behind while Serizawa and Mob and everyone else are doing their best to better theirselves.

In this fic Reigen deals with the after trauma of what happened at the end of the REIGEN spinoff manga...as I sort of love exploring the post REIGEN manga space and the lingering consequences Reigen had by not only accepting but fully Embracing Rusty-sama (even if it was briefly)

It's still a very vague vibe of an idea atm.

I'm playing with the idea that Reigen leaves Seasoning for a bit to join a group of enthusiastic gardeners to learn how to make their own tomato sauce...perhaps occasionally sending letters to Serizawa and Mob?

Currently the summary is: In which Reigen learns about matters of the heart, that self improvement does Not mean self isolation, and tomatoes. 

Again, right now it is just a vague jumble of vibes and feelings haha I don't think the rating will get higher than Teen and Up for this...

Thank you so much again for asking! ♡

Best wishes!

[chesters-ocs]

kinda a mess, but then again, the entirety of the soulmate au is

pspsps @the-whispers-of-death

It'd been months since Sylvester and Vikram had started dating, much the displeasure of Butcher, who got heavily pushed aside, to the point where he hadn't even met the sucker yet.

To him, it seemed strange that Sylvester suddenly trusted this guy who he met just earlier this year with the lives and safety of both of their children.

Sure, Butcher was not home as often as he would have liked, having been abroad in Italy for months on end prior to the discovery of his... "partner's" soulmate, but he was here now. Alone in the apartment with both his dearly beloved kids, who are cuddling into him from both sides, as he absent-mindedly scratches their ears, finding their purring endearing.

A click of the building door is heard, and the girl immediately perks up, ears zoned in on the quiet talking, causing Butcher's brow to raise: "What'cha hearing, little lady?" he asked, at the same time as Sammy burrowed under the blankets with a small whine. The man's hand kept petting the boy, in hopes of soothing him from whatever got him nervous.

"I think.. it's dad's friends!" she squeals in excitement, and sits up, eagerly awaiting their entry, causing her step-father to also rise, holding Sammy in his arms, who got more nervous and uncomfortable by the second: "Oh? Daddy's gonna have friends over? He didn't tell me," he hums, suspicious.

Mārīte nods, quickly explaining: "Dad gave one of his friends keys! I think it was his.. uh. soulmate?"

Butcher straightens up: "Sylvester's buddies come here when you and Sam are alone? And he lets them?"

The alarm bells are going off in his head, but in the next second Mārīte jumps up as the door gets unlocked, but she can't get far, as Butch puts down his son, and clasps a hand over her shoulder: "Stay here for a second, I'll talk to your pop's friends."

Thank god the fake smile he wore was reassuring enough, as the girl nodded and sat back down, and started to mess with her younger brother, by tugging at the blanket.

Vikram and Ashok don't get far into the apartment, before Butcher appears, as they're kicking off their shoes. There's a questioning, unimpressed look in his eyes as he stares down the two taller men.

The shorter of the two strangers is staring at his wrist, his hands slightly trembling, as he stares down the compass, while the other is eyeing Butcher with a judgemental look. He's clearly been told tale's of Sammy's father, and Vikram isn't missing his chance to thoroughly judge him.

"Who are you?" Butcher demands, crossing his arms, eyes flickering between the two of them.

"... Your soulmate...?" The man who was staring at his wrist replies, causing Butcher to roll his eyes, waving it off, "Bullshit. And you?"

Before the tall man has the chance to bite back at him, Ashok buts-in: "No-no, seriously! Can I..?"

With a begrudging eye roll, Butcher rolls up his sleeve and sticks his arm outwards.

"Hm. So it's true," is all the man says, sounding absolutely disinterested in, what should have been, the best news of his life. Disinterested enough, that even the stoic bastard taking up most of the hallway seems appalled.

Sensing his choice of words were rough, Butcher continues, his voice softening a smidge when speaking to Ashok, who has lowered his hand by now: "We'll talk later, doll," before his voice went back to the assertive tone it help before.

"Now. Tell me who you are. But I'm guessing mountain man over here is Syl's new boy?"

Vikram's eyes narrowed. Bingo. He guessed right, at least.

"And why are you here? Babysitting?"

"You could say that. We didn't know anyone else was going to be here," Ashok explains, eager to at least talk to his new-found soulmate.

"Got back this morning. Syl ain't know I'm back either yet."

"That explains the sudden change of direction the.. the compass had..." his soulmate utters.

"Sounds likely. Anywho. Which one of ya bastards are scarin' my son when I ain't here? Heard the doors open and started shakin' like a damn leaf."

"That'd be him," Ashok snitches without a moment's hesitation, earning a stone cold glare to be sent his way.

"Hah. Thought so. Well. I aint above breakin' bones if I see you hurt my son. Carry on," Butcher states, turning on his heel, leaving Ashok to almost scramble after him, his thoughts racing at the reveal of his soulmate still.

In the meanwhile, Vikram is frozen by the door, his own, separate thoughts flooding his brain. It's mainly questions about who the brash man is in relation to Sylvester and the two kids... And he is already despising the answer he got to one of the questions.

He's, without a doubt, Samuel's father. Down to their faces.

It is only Mārīte's laughter that snaps him out of his thoughts, as he begrudgingly enters deeper into the apartment.

"what did he say?" Clyde asks while looking at you

"A stupid basketball team" you say rolling your eyes

"hmm what if we get him tickets to it" Clyde says confidently "do you know how much money that will be?" "Loren we'll be fine I'll make the money back by selling more shoes this is my last prom I wanna make it count". You hated when he gave you those sad sob stories but you did it anyway because you wanted to win to obvi and bought the tickets for Kyle. "Uh Kyle Clyde wanted me to give you these" you say before handing the tickets to him "A-ARE THOSE DENVER NUGGET TICKETS!?" "Yeah but you can only have them if you let me and Clyde be prom queen and king" "y/n you know I can't do that" "you can do it it's just you don't want to are you sure you don't want to" you say swinging the two tickets in his face. "Ugh fine just give me the tickets and no take backs" "Kyle I may not be as smart as you but I'm not dumb either you'll get them after I see crowns on me and Clyde's head"

And with that you walked off

"what did he say?" "Oh he's gonna do it he has no choice" "are you holding the tickets hostage?" "Maybe oh don't judge me I'm desperate" "not as desperate as me" he pulls you in to kiss you.

*Time skip to the night of the prom*

After your mom takes the last photo for prom of the night you and Craig got into the red shiny car he rented "you sure this is gonna work y/n?" "Clyde stop rushing me" "alright fine" You two make your way to the decorated gym "hey y/n" Heidi says "hey where's Eric?" "He's by the food table stuffing his face" she says as she started to pout. "Ha typical Cartman" "shut the fuck up Clyde" you elbow him "anywho see you later Heidi" "bye y/n"

*Time skip to the near end of prom*

Wendy and Kyle get on stage to pronounce prom Royalty tonight. "Tonight's prom king is... Clyde Donavon!" Clyde walks up on stage whispering a "thank you" to Kyle "And also the true beauty of the night the prom queen of tonight's wonderful prom is... Y/n L/n!" You walk on stage and hands Kyle his tickets. The floor clears as you and Clyde have the royal dance "he really did it" "ofc Kyle would do anything if it requires a basketball" "heh yeah" Clyde pulls you in for a warm and passionate kiss.

That was a bullshit ass ending but yeahhh I swear the only reason I wrote this is because it's been in my drafts for weeks I wanted to write for Tolkien but I did not know how I can turn those titles into one shots 💀

Ruko here. Been a while since I was awake. Kinda glad to know people gladly embrace me more openly about being intersex now. How cool is that? You Vocaloid fans aren't half bad.

When I say a while I mean I haven't been on the net since 2014. It's been A WHILE a while. Been neat to see what has and what hasn't changed, you know?

Anyway, some notes to the other Vocaloids in this brain space cos I haven't gotten to talk to everyone in an age...

Rook, my twin. My guy. You're a nerd. I love ya to bits. Thanks for holding down the fort. You're the best lame brother a guy like me could ask for. Dell, I know you and Haku haven't talked in forever, but she worries about you. Talk to her sometime, will ya? She also says congrats on the lil relationship you and Miku got going on. It's cute and you guys suit each other. To the Fourth Alice's, Rin and Len... Stop stealing my ties before I start stealing the candy I know you stash in our room. And finally, to Akaito... Why are you a demon? Like no seriously, you used to just be some guy what happened there. Tell me the story sometime, I beg of you. I'm nosey. Finally, to Pico... Wake up soon, okay lil guy? I dunno what happened, but I hope you're able to rest easy. We'll all see you again soon, I'm sure.

Anywho, it's like 2 am as I type this. I should sleep, for our sake. See ya all soon.

Love, your local Yokune Ruko fictive (He/They/She <3)

(shhh i know this ask is like a short story but let me just rave) i just wanna say i’ve recently gotten back into reading fanfic (sparked by my lovee of mota and my infatuation with ours truly, bucky egan) and true north BY FAR is one of my favorite fics i’ve ever read. i hardly ever dabble in oc centric fics but the way that i’m obsessed with frank is so lovely. i need rose and dorothy and amelia and all my girlies to be as happy as possible forever and always. (majorly pining for some rosie and rose action but anything you write will be stellar) ALSO. they way that bucky is so obviously bucky is amazing writing on your part.

anywho, i know we’ve gotten a few glimpses into buckys pov, but do you plan on writing a chapter or even a section that’s more bucky centric?

id loveeee to see buckys love for frank from his pov, especially considering his mental decent as the story progresses (especially after chapter 8 lol)

Oh my gosh this is so kind and nice and wonderful! Thank you for your words!! I am so happy that you've gotten back into fanfic AND that you love the story so much! Frank and the girls are so fun to write, and I'm enjoying their personalities and banter so much. I try SO hard to write the actual characters in character, trying to make their tone of voice and inflections as accurate as possible, and the fact that you think Bucky is so Bucky in True North is just such a huge compliment! Thank you!! (and never apologize for long asks/comments, I LOVE them, hahahahaha)

I do plan to add Bucky and his pov in very soon! Especially once the boys land, he'll need to have a lot of conversations (ribbing) from Buck and the others. But mostly Buck. I have briefly considered starting chapter 10 out with Bucky's POV, based on how chapter 9 is going to play out, and I'm trying hard to keep that in, just need to do some rewriting so it's not so clunky. But, have no fear, we WILL get Bucky's POV and chapters very soon! (definitely in chapter 11 for SURE!) And especially as the story progresses and we get closer to him going down, we'll be going back and forth between our couple pretty regularly.

Thank you SO MUCH again! 🥰

[celestie0]

I didn’t realise you weren’t even intentionally writing the pattern of reader leaving kickoff gojo that was actually something I really liked even though my kitty probably had some medical complications from all the edging let alone the characters lmfao ur putting em through hell babe

And god thank you for the mental prep cause yes I loooooooove angst but it’s gotta be followed by the comfort tag bc lord I think I have genuine trauma from some fics

lol I remember the end of this one toji (or was it gojo I don’t remember) fic had me sinking to my knees, clutching my mums skirt and calling for her to sooth my agony

anyway I just love these babies way too much and I’ve been at piece since you guaranteed a happy ending so I’m praying it stays that way and nothing possesses you in the midst of the night to turn on us all and single handedly raise suicide rates

anywho apart from that angst is good tho anddddd it means you’ve extended kickoff past the original plan of 12 chapters right??? I saw you answer an ask about that and I was so FUCKING glad cause this series has my whole heart :(

like fr I don’t close these tabs btw like ur page and the kickoff masterlist are semi permanently open on my phone

ihm morning sex yum spectacular although I realise I rlly do need build up to smut like it’s been a while since I read the chapters but ik in the series nghhm never seen a first time scene with morning wood tbh but id have to be blind not to see the vision

I just skimmed smut of clan leader gojo going feral and filling up wife reader like a water balloon (first fic under the gojo smut search I’m pretty sure)

mm yh that’s it for todays dump sorry I always do this hehe I don’t like typing I be leaving friends on read left and right for days but if its you 🫶

kiss kiss

-spinster anon 💋

HAHAH i mean it's sooooort of intentional, kickoff reader canonically has avoidant attachment style, like she'd rather leave than get left. but i guess it hasn't come to the point yet where it super bothers kickoff gojo, but that time will come loool. even he has his limits also LMFAOO sorry for the edging xd

i don't think the angst in kickoff will be super crazy extreme like some fics i've read but it'll def be angsty loool. but nooooo the fic will DEF have a happy ending <3 i can't stand sad endings, i won't read fics if i know they have sad endings haha. PLS NOT THE SUICIDE RATES

yesss omg ch12 chapters was AMBITIOUS ahha. i anticipate kickoff will have 18 chapters now? there's one more "arc" after this current edging arc loool. like a relationship arc combined w the third act angst and then i imagine it'll wrap up pretty quickly in like 1-2 chapters. but i am historically horrendous at predicting these things haha so we'll see!! also sob at the tabs thing. imma eat u ur so sweet my spinster anon :((

yess agreed i also need build up to smut lolol. but in my head i know all of what happens in ihm so the morning sex scene i wrote did have build up in theory xD

thanks uuu for the ask bb <33 it's a joy to talk to youuu

Questions 1-5 from the Casual Ask Game for Wheatley if he doesn't mind (@dzvagabond)

(Thank you for the ask @dzvagabond ! You're also giving me the chance to answer this with the two different Wheatley's that I F/O. >:3c)

1. Well, go on, introduce yourself!

Oh bloody- THAT'S what I was forgetting to do yesterday! Sorry sorry, I'll get on with that now.

'Ello there! I'm Wheatley Merchant. Here's a picture of me Ry drew.

(Ignore the date that's wrong now whoops)

Uhhh I'm not sure what else to tell you other than what's on that reference, honestly, kinda already covers a lot, yeah? I mean, obviously I'm the one on the left right now. But that's a given. I suppose th@t'S mE-

...uH, 'eLl0?

'Ello?

Oh! Hi there. Sorry had to connect in to see the question- Oh I thought I forgot something! Well, let me do that now: My name is Wyatt Lee. Sector- Nope, not the MCA, Lee.

Uh, 'scuse me. Force of habit, MCA is where I work y'see. J-Just call me Lee. Anyways, I have a drawing of me and Rylan that she drew... Ah! Found it!

Uh, let's see, I'm 7'0- Yes I'm serious and yes the weather is good up here- and as you can see I'm an android. I'm pansexual and use He/Him pronouns. Uh, I think that's all the basics? Let's see, what's next?

(The rest of Lee's responses will be Purple for the sake of ease.)

2. So, how have you and (Rylan) been? What have you two been up to recently?

Been good! Not really much of note being honest. Except Halloween recently, but we just kinda cuddled and ate candy.

Great! The only thing I can think of is we went to a work party for Halloween with some co-workers/friends. Ry's been going out more and more so I can go to a few parties which I appreciate. I personally love em, but I promise I pay it back in full by equally spending time inside with her. And even if they don't wanna go that's OK too!

3. How did you and (Rylan) meet anyways? What was that first encounter like?

...Back in Aperture. Yeahhh that's uh. I don't think I really need to describe the first encounter besides we were in a bad situation and trying to get out of it. So uh. Skip.

It was when Rylan first started working for the MCA. They got scared shitless when they heard my voice for the first time. Nearly jumped a full foot off the ground... Then apologized when they saw me and said "Sorry, you just sounded like a friend I had." Uh, I kinda didn't get it then, but looking back, they were talking about their Wheatley from their world.

4. So, like, how is (Rylan) as a person?

Ohhh where to begin? She's just- They're so amazing y'know? I mean, they're the whole package of kind, generous, steadfast in her morals, loyal, funny... And she is... So beautiful to me. In like- A She AND gender-neutral way? Anyways, honestly, couldn't ask for more.

Well, I mean, what's not to love? She's smarter than she gives herself credit for, they'll be patient with me, well except for when I'm taking my time heheh. That's- That's a joke. Just teasing. Anywho- honestly I love them for the kindness they got, and the moral compass... Plus their laugh is EVERYTHING to me.

...Also, bonus points for being damn pretty. Like my god- They are a fucking knockout.

5. Any upcoming plans with (Rylan)? Like in the next coming week or even month maybe?

Christmas! And uh- otherwise that's kinda it. Nothing really planned.

Oh, just Christmas. And since we went to a Christmas work party last year, and we didn't go to the Halloween one that year... Yeah you can imagine where I'm heading with this one- doing vice versa this year. Though before holidays come to give us our off days, Ry is trying to figure out presents for our close group friends from work. I mean, I am too. One of them is really hard to shop for- *cough cough* Emmerson *cough* -but we'll get through it and then we're scot free to cuddle up during the holidays.

HAZEL'S HORRORDEX: LOG #000

Title: Mod Post | Rules and Information. Rules below the cut.

Status: Active

Currently training: N/A

Current location: Nacrene City, Unova.

Hello! My name is Hazel! Hazel Farley. I'm a Pokémon trainer who specializes in more...Difficult Pokémon. Pokémon that people fear, ones that have a bad history. Like Hydreigon, Hypno, and Drifblim! My goal is to gain a better understanding of them personally, and just generally show others that they aren't actually that bad!

My partner is named Pops. He's a Drampa! He's been with me since I was little, and is the reason I took such a huge interest in more messed up Pokémon. I'm sure you've read the dex entries...Drampa may be cute, but they tend to be very...absolute in their way of justice. I mean, no one's house burned down in my case! It...Well...That doesn't mean that something didn't happen, but that's...Besides the point. I'll discuss that at a later date!

Anywho, this blog is gonna kinda be like...a diary of sorts? I'll be archiving my experiences here, and answering questions as well! Maybe I'll even take suggestions for new buddies to train? We'll see! Feel free to hang around if you'd like! I don't bite, I promise.

Oh, Pops is getting hungry. I should go handle that...Thanks for reading!

End Log

[OOC]

Okay hi!!! So uh...This is my attempt at one of those "what if pokémon were real" type things. It'll be silly and wonky and hopefully a good time?? Though I do have some rules I wanna go over before anyone asks anything.

1. No NSFW. Period.

2. The pokémon you inquire/request for Hazel to cover doesn't always have to have a fucked up pokédex entry to be covered! I love coming up with darker ideas for innocent seeming pokémon, so throw em at me. Also feel free to ask Hazel some personal questions as well! She'd be happy to answer :)

3. MAPS/Zoophiles/Homophobes, etc...DNI. Shoo. Begone. You are not welcome here.

I thiiink that's it? I'll add more if I feel like they're needed. Thank you for reading!! :)

[highladydawn]

Omg okay so I saw this tiktok where it was like "when the fans from my one unfinished fanfic find me 8 years later asking for an update" and it made me LOL bc it reminded me of your Elain and Lucien fic you wrote and I remember really loving it and reading the last part on the shuttle going to school and now I just graduated college like a couple days ago! 😭 Anywho yea that tiktok reminded me of you (not in a make you feel guilty way but in a haha omg I feel that way) Hopefully one day we'll get to see the end of the fic 🥹💕🫶

This warmed my heart!! 💛😭 It's so funny how fic is so embedded into our lives sometimes. I've had stories I've carried for a literal decade.

I do want to finish the fic someday! In the middle of writing it, I sorta fucked around and became a part-time author, so that's been occupying most of my writer headspace. But when elucien finally gets their damn book, I'm sure the acotar bug will bite me again and I'll finally finish Icarus in Armor. I hope it'll make you proud!!

Anyways, thanks for the sweet anon! :') Congrats on your graduation!!

[akai-anna]

Hiya, it's your DCMK exchange giver! I'm very sorry for disappearing for a bit there! Thank you for accepting me as well *bows*

How did your interview go? I hope well! As for me, I won't lie, it's been a little crazy around here lately, but it's mostly settled down ^_^

There are sooo many things I really like about DCMK, and honestly with as big the fandom is I feel like there's always one little nook that's dedicated to some specific part of the show?? Butttt as for something that I cherish a lot but don't really see a lot of appreciation for, i'd probably say Haibara's relationship with the detective boys? I dunno, I think there's something that just GETS me when I think about her backstory and then I look at her goofing (or as much as what Haibara does can be considered 'goofing') around with these weird little five-year-olds.

Another small thing I kinda appreciate is how like, when the killer is revealed at the end, I never feel like the reaction they get is disproportionate to what they did? If that makes sense? I feel like with some mystery stories/anime I've seen in the past, when the killer is revealed, I feel like the surrounding characters sometimes either overreact or underreact. At least for the most part, the show is good at communicating to the audience whether a killer is 'sympathetic' or semi-sympathetic or completely deplorable. I'm not really sure if that makes sense haha, but I think it's nice because with other stories that do that a lot, it can kinda pull you out of the head space.

YESS I AM A PLATONIC RELATIONSHIP ENTHUSIAST!! Honestly, reading your ask about Vermouth is making me want to rewatch her episodes... I hope for more Vermouth in the future, and! I'm sure we'll get her backstory eventually! Right Gosho Aoyama?? RIGHT???

Glad you liked the fic rec, do you have any you would recommend :D? I like pretty much anything, so sky's the limittt

AND OH MY GOSH

YOUR DOG IS SO DEAR I LOVE HER

sending her hearts <3

Anywho, for another question, out of curiosity, how did you get into DCMK?

Also, I'm really sorry to say this, but I think I might need a little more time for your gift, so I might need to post it a little late. I'll check with the mods to see how that usually goes, but I'm really sorry! I'll try to get it out as soon as possible.

Hope you have a great day ^_^!

HI THERE AGAIN, LOVELY!!! I'm very happy to see you back!

Firstly: take all the time you need, and I mean it! No rush, I'll wait for however long you take! (You so kindly accepted me so close to the end of the exchange, so truly, no worries, take your time!)

And thank you for asking, it actually went quite well! In fact, I started a brand new job this monday where I went for the interview, and I've been really enjoying it so far (more than I thought I would which is a very pleasant surprise). On the other hand, yesterday one of our cars got totally obliterated, so. (Fortunately no one got hurt, the only damage we got out of it is the material sort.) Life has a way of balancing things out, I guess.

As for you, I hope things settle down further for you, and you can have some peace and time to enjoy for yourself!

And Haibara's relationship with the Detective Boys, yes, Yes, YES, I HAVE A SOFT SPOT FOR THEM TOO. I think the Elementary Squad did so much good for both Shinichi and Shiho... I'm so emotional about these two getting attached and caring for this lil group of actual tiny children but also them being friends. And the way they inspire each other. (Ai to stay and keep living and be herself, and for Shinichi learning the merit of working together and just letting himself enjoy something for the joy of it... I'm emotional...) Yes I Love.

And that is such an interesting take! I admit, I've never thought about it before, but gosh. That is such a good point. I don't feel this applies to all cases (mostly from recent ones? recent-ish?), but I definitely remember instances like this from Olde DetCo. I think, partly it's that the reactions feel genuine? Especially when the ones who are reacting to it are characters that I care about a lot: their reactions compel deep emotions in me. Gosh, now I'm going to pay more attention to this on my current reread. Thank you for sharing this thought!

Honestly? Same. At this point I always feel like rewatching/rereading anything with Vermouth (which is not much, unfortunately for me). And gosh... I sure hope there will be more about her in the future. (WHERE DO I SIGN UP FOR A VERMOUTH BACKSTORY? PLEASE? WHERE IS MY DETCO OFFICIAL FANBOOK WITH BLOOD TYPES AND BDAYS AND BACKSTORIES AND ALL THE SECRET LORE??? WHERE GOSHO?)

I ADORE FIC RECS, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! As for my own recs... I do have a loooot of fics that I love and adore, so... *coughs* In fact I just made an estimate yesterday that in the past year I checked out (includes fully read/halfway read/noped out of early on type of fics too) around 1000 fics (just on AO3) for DetCo, AND in my fic folder I have around 200-300 saved for reading again later, also known as the fics I got attached to... So if you have any preference (canonical romantic pairs? fandom romantic pairs? just friendship/platonic? something parental? a preferred character dynamic or characterization? a specific trope? you name it), that would narrow down my choices. :') I admit, my main focus tends to be on Shinichi/Conan, but other than that I just usually go after my gut feeling, as in what I crave at that moment, which varies a lot.

RIGHT? MY DEAR ROSIE IS A BABY, THANK YOU, AND A PAT ENTHUSIAST!!! AND I'LL DEFINITELY PASS ON THOSE HEARTS AS PATS TO HER! (Also have some more pictures of my Angel. Me, shoving pictures in your face like a proud parent of their child, who has tons of photos of their kids in their wallet.)

As for how I got into DCMK. Gosh. It has been so long, but I remember there was this Hungarian manga site (which is already long past; it got taken down, oh, childhood memories) when I was in my teens. At that time I was shit at English, so I consumed manga in Hungarian. I was looking around for something to read, I think, and I saw the cover of the first volume of DetCo, and checked out the synopsis. It sounded intriguing! The art style was to my liking! I've always liked detective stories in general! Then, I started reading it, and then got hooked on it, line and sinker. I had my true and first fandom experience through DetCo too: there was a forum, and we had like 4-5 members in total at first, I think? It was quite cozy, and I still think of those times fondly. So I've been into DCMK for more than a decade now at least! *laughs* There was a bit of a pause for a few years (my brain tends to fixate on a very limited amount of things at a time), but last year I felt like rereading the manga (oh, that nostalgia) and... Here I am, again, totally not obsessed at all. *laughs awkwardly* It's almost been a year, going by my twitter thread, since I started that particular reread in February... And still going strong with my love for DCMK. Yup. It's like coming home. But enough about me and my endless rambling, let me return the question to you: how did YOU get into DCMK?

I hope you have a great day too, darling! (And I really hope I'll be seeing you in my inbox at least once more: I'd really love to hear more of your thoughts! But if you don't have time that is all right too: I know how life can be, so no pressure if you cannot!!!)

[caught-the-lovebug]

OK HI IM THE PERSON WHO WANTED TO LEAVE A LETTER IN THAT BOYS LOCKER BUT WANTED TO DO IT ANONYMOUSLY I HAVE A MAJOR UPDATE.

ok so throughout the next few weeks of that post i chickened out multiple times thinking that i shouldnt do it and on the day of valentines my Spanish teacher gave us flowers and I thought, hey why not I have a flower now this is the perfect opportunity but I still wasn't sure and was like extremely nervous so I messaged my friends, and they practically (affectionately) peer pressured me into doing it. I made the note in the shape of a heart and found out how to fold it to make it look like an envelope and I wrote a short note basically just saying, what u like about him and I think he's special and really cute and I left the flower and the note in his locker while he was having a private lesson (were in band). I almost went back to get it, but I decided not to and afterwords I felt pretty good. A few days of passed and Friday (2/17) we were walking to our local Walgreens idk how we got to this conversation but he was like "there's some things I want to figure out before I die" and I asked what he wanted to figure out, and at first, he was really vague about it, but then he got more specific very slowly and he like mentioned he found something in his locker, and I just immediately knew he was talking about the note. Long story short, he cried happy tears after reading it, he has a picture of it on his phone and he wants to figure out who it. He said the handwriting look familiar, which is my bad because since I kept chickening out, I kind of rushed to the note at the last minute and hand wrote it instead of printing it like u said (which is why I was surprised he said he cried, because honestly after putting it in his locker I thought it was pretty cringy or cliché and kinda rushed). He also said that he has a feeling that me and my friend (we'll call them S) had something to do with it. I think this is because a few weeks before after I had told S about my crush on him S wenr to go ask him about any crushes he had. AnyWho, we moved on from the conversation after that but i did text about it later though, he thinks it was a girl (which is true) and maybe I'm looking too into it but I have a feeling he might know it's me cuz when I asked what he would do if you ever met the person who sent him the letter, he said "I guess if I know the person I could just say that I like them back" and maybe I'm looking too much into it, but that felt like a hint. All my friends think it is and think I should tell him but I don't think I'll be doing that anytime soon. Honestly I'm just happy that it made him happy says he's kind of depressed and just the fact that something I made, made him so happy that he cried just makes my heart swell.🥹🥹🥹🥹

Thanks for your advice! (Even though, if at the end, I technically didn't take it fully lmao 💀)

Ahhh!! That's an amazing outcome!

You made someone you care about really happy and that's So Special and Good. I'm so glad it turned out that way.

Don't worry about not following my advice exactly, I only give it to help give people like you options or think about how They want to do things. It also sounds like you put a lot of care and thought into it even if you think it's a bit rushed.

Honestly, my instincts are to tell him! He's likely either figured it out or has a strong idea but doesn't want to be wrong.

Especially the "I'd tell them I like them back"... That feels odd to say if you don't think you know who. To me anyways.

But! If that's not what you want to do, then you don't have to push yourself. You did something incredibly nice and made him happy and you can crush away knowing that. It's entirely up to you. And as long as any decision you make feels good, that's great. And if you decide not to, you can always change your mind later.

Good luck! And I'm So Happy it went well!!!
