Stephen glass x Reader !

Warnings: fluff! Stephen spoiling you, him being dorky and in love with you. Flustered Stephen

Pictures from Pinterest ! Dividers from @cafekitsune & @anitalenia <3 thank you for reading, proofread and feedback appreciated! This one comes out a day after lazy but happy birthday Evie ! Love you @speaknow-sw

Stephen wouldn’t call himself a pro when it came to girls, but he knew what they liked. But it had been six months since the both of you started dating, so he knew so much about you already.

The sun was peaking in through the curtains, casting a warm contour over your soft features. Soon enough the smell of breakfast wafted into your nose, stirring you from a peaceful sleep.

You stretched languidly, eyes adjusting to the bright sun. Walking out of the room and into the kitchen with nothing but a shirt and panties on, feet pattering before you saw Stephen making your plate. ‘ Good mornin Stevie’ you smiled.

He turned with a smile ‘ good morning sweethear-‘ his words died in his throat when he saw your attire.. well lack of. Clearing his throat, he spoke up with a flustered expression. ‘ Happy birthday baby, I made you breakfast’ he held up your plate with a dorky smile.

Your heart fluttered at the gesture, taking the plate of bacon and eggs from him. A golden piece of toast with jelly smeared on it perfectly. ‘ Thank you’ smiling up at him, pecking his lips softly.

Sitting down at the table with his own breakfast, he surprisingly had the day all planned out. It’s not like you had many plans for your birthday anyways. You quietly listened as he explained what he wanted to do with you.

After breakfast he planned on taking you to the mall and letting you get whatever, and afterwards you would pick lunch of your choice. Which frankly, sounded pretty good. You wanted to spend the day with him anyways.

‘ I really wanna make this day special for you.. even if I can’t give you sex. I’m still pretty nervous about the whole thing, but—‘ you shushed him, finger on his soft lips. Taking a sip of your apple juice, ‘ As long as I’m spending the day with you okay?’

Hours later you two had been wandering the mall for a while, bags in both of Stephen’s hands. He just followed you around happily like a puppy dog, just eager to get you anything you wanted. Trailing behind as you strolled into the jewelry store.

Browsing a few things he picked up a a pretty necklace, holding it up to you. ‘ hey uhm.. do you like this? I think it’s pretty.. it’d suit you’ you looked down at it with a smile, letting him place it against your neck. ‘ oh it’s nice.. but I couldn’t— you already bought me so much stuff today.’

He smiled widely, ‘ oh no it’s okay I promise, I wanted to spoil you today.. let me buy it please?’ He pleaded you, big blue eyes looking into yours. And it got you every time.. you couldn’t bring yourself to say no.

‘ okay okay fine.. but this is my very last present okay?’ You yielded, watching his face brighten with a grin. He walked over to the counter and you sighed as he paid for the necklace, but it warmed your heart to know he wanted to treat you so nicely.

‘ Here sweetheart let me put it on you..’ he stood behind you, both of you facing the in-store mirror. And he gently draped it around your neck, sealing the clasp. The necklace was gorgeous against your skin, enhancing your features. You smiled and lightly touched it, ‘ thank you Stevie.. I love it’ leaning over to kiss his cheek.

After all of that walking, ultimately you decided you wanted pizza. Sitting across from Stephen sharing a half n half pizza, your side was plain pepperoni and his side had pepperoni and pineapple. Which was okay but not necessarily your cup of tea. Smiling at him while he ate his pizza, glasses sliding down his nose.

‘ Stephen, I really really appreciate this.. you taking me out today, I had a lot of fun.’ Grinning at him, pure adoration in your eyes. Shifting on your stool, leaning forward to watch his face.

Stephen beamed back at you, ‘ I wanted to make you feel special today that’s all… I’ve really enjoyed the past six months. I knew you didn’t have anything planned so...’

His hand reached across the table to gingerly interlace with yours. Finger rubbing the back of your hand. ‘ Can you spend the night again please? We’ll get a movie and some takeout, I don’t want the day to end..’ you pleaded, everything had been perfect.

‘ Of course sweetness..’ he felt his cheeks warm up, ‘ Anything for you’ ,, he kissed the back of your hand softly, he was falling for you. And falling for you hard.. before he knew it, Stephen was already whipped.

Thank you guys for reading ! This felt sort of rushed? But you guys know I have a bad habit of turning drabbles into oneshots, so I kind of crammed it in there.

Yet Another Tag Game

I feel like most of the "get to know you" games use similar questions, so I wanted to try something new and a little weirder. You know how it works 😉. Just answer the questions in a new post and tag anyone else you want to play! 🙂

Thanks for throwing a tag my way, @returnofthepineapple 🩷

Any eating utensil preferences? Standard fork + knife, and plastic spoons (unless metal is unavoidable). There's something about the sound of metal spoons and dishware that sets my teeth on edge.

A genre of music you love? Uhhh, that's pretty cyclical. I think a majority of the music in my "favorites" list falls under pop/pop rock?

A type of seasoning condiment that would make anything edible for you? By and large that would be salt. #lowirongang

Pens or pencils? You're gonna make me pit two bad bitches against each other? :'( I love my ballpoints and mechanical pencils equally!

What's your weirdest/most interesting hobby? Making people believe I'm knitting when I'm crocheting. Or watercolors.

If you had to get rid of one color entirely, what would it be? Any choice would have devastating consequences for life and art as we know it, don't torment me with that kind of thought exercise.

Any allergies? None that I'm aware of!

Favorite fictional character? At this very moment with Star Wars? Commander Fox. Outside of SW it'd be Arthur Morgan from RDR2.

Favorite real person that you don't personally know? Bob Ross. I mutually gushed about Ross and The Joy of Painting for almost ten minutes with an oil painter at the convention over the weekend lmao.

How many alarms do you have set? Five. Three for the morning -weekdays with separate Sat. and Sun. alarms. Two for feeding the cats.

Do you have any pets? Do you want some? Two little rascal cats! There's Sgt. Smudge - a 10yo tuxedo, and Clementine (nicknamed Clemmie) - a 1yo (female) orange tabby. I'll pay the pet tax at the bottom of the post.

Favorite drink, alcoholic or non? Dr. Pepper (or just anything with caffeine). I don't drink.

Favorite smell? Petrichor, old books and pine forests, to name a few.

Favorite shoes? Comfy tennis shoes.

How do you feel about bugs and spiders? Depends. Are they just vibing outside? Then I leave 'em be. If they find their way inside and I'm concerned they pose some kind of risk to my cats, then I'll take appropriate action.

Outdoors or indoors? Indoors. Unless we're going birdwatching, then I'm game!

Sunny or rainy? I love rainy weather, but it does not love me back. (I've developed migraines the last few times. 🥲)

Where would you really like to visit? Would you move there? Ireland, or somewhere with a lot of unique birds. Don't know how I'd feel about moving there lol.

Are you a people person? Introversion and severe anxiety (general and social) don't make for a fun combination, so I wouldn't say that I am. I desperately want to get to know people better but goddammit is that hard when you're extremely ND and have a history of relentless bullying due to the former.

At what temperature do you keep your home (or would if you could)? Whatever's gonna help me survive the never-ending Excessive Heat Warnings that come with living in the Southwest! :')

I love LOVE soundbee, hear me out. I love how you mentioned that they would go to raves together, with a chance of soundwave being the one who made the concert. I live for soundbee content, anymore headcanons for them? I’ll drop some of my own!! <33

- they would bond over music, because of course they do. bee loves hearing his bf talk about his music.

- they would dance together, wether it be a slow dance or just dancing together to rave music. soundwave almost always take the lead, he’s having fun and bee loves that.

- sound would make a playlist for bee, y’know, take it as a kickstarter for their relationship. bee would listen to it when working or driving, even humming it on his way to other places. SW loved that he does.

- bee would buy cybertronian equivalents of records and vinyls for SW, once even buying him a new record player. he knows how much sound loves music, might as well enhance it

- sound would get bee all sorts of items that resemble those of earth or items imported from earth! he knows how much his bee loved that planet, especially seeing him in the diplomatic meeting chatting away with earth’s own diplomat(s).

love them, even with their positions in this reformatted cybertron, they’ll hang out secretly. before officially dating, secretly of course. the day Optimus finds out is the day he blows a fuse.

— ♫

I love these head canons so much music anon!

Especially Optimus blowing a literal fuse when he learns his bitty is dating a decepticon and such a dangerous high ranking one!

Soundwave does not make the situation any better because he is a troll and will roll with the punches if Optimus does too much, which he does. Bee is trying to play peacekeeper but its a failed mission. Optimus is stubborn and so is Soundwave and they have petty arguments for years about this.

Soundwave and Bee go off to get conjunxed. They want to be alone with Soundwaves cassettes of course.

They go off to a peaceful place where its just them and conjunx during the setting sun overlooking a forest. They sit and enjoy the feeling of the others frame as their sparks dance and a piece of each of them is left in the other. The connection is so easy and feels like home.

Its like a puzzle they didn’t know was missing a piece finally was found and now everything just makes sense.

Thank you for these lovely head canons

I follow few enough people that sometimes the fastest way to get to a mutual's blog, esp if I've forgotten their current username, is to go to "Following" and find them that way. But sometimes it's fun to go allllll the way back to see my very earliest follows in terms of people who are still at least vaguely active here and whom I've never had cause to unfollow:

@venndaai - first person I followed on Tumblr! We already knew each other from livejournal Star Wars fandom and iirc their migration to Tumblr was one of the original reasons I drifted from "ugh Tumblr" to taking it seriously as a fandom platform at all.

@duncatra - not many people in SW fandom have such consistently good takes and I was a Club Jade fan long before I had a Tumblr account.

@lantur - eventually I remembered that I could follow more people after B1 of Legend of Korra wrapped up. I started following other people with similar Tarrlok or Noatak feelings, and complicated reactions to the finale that didn't just slide into "labyrinthine social justice argument that's transparently about why my ship should be canon." Lantur in particular seemed cool even before she wrote my favorite between-seasons LOK fic ("Chiaroscuro").

@nanyoky - I am pretty sure we met via the Henriad's brief day in the Tumblr sun due to The Hollow Crown casting Tom Hiddleston as Henry V. His was the first performance of Henry V that I much liked, even though Hal is one of my favorite Shakespeare characters, so I was mildly active in the fandom and we hit it off.

@steinbecks - we met through LOK also, but on the Noatak side of my bloodbender feelings, and ended up talking a ton over the entire course of the show over the next few years and afterwards, especially about creative writing and editing. She's the only one on this list that I've met in person, I think—we went out to dinner at a Mediterranean restaurant when I happened to be in town (and she enabled my fascination with the bougiest cheeseburger of my life that for some reason was on the menu).

@grumpyfaceurn - we met through livejournal, also through Star Wars! She was the illustrator of my Lucy Skywalker fics from very early (we were partners in the au_bigbang that produced The Imperial Menace), and even when our interests diverged drastically over the years, we've stayed mutuals out of general accord.

@heckofabecca - I think we met through a random Jane Austen rant of mine about women's statistically average ages at first marriage in Austen's lifetime. At least, it's the first time I remember interacting with her! We discovered a wealth of other common interests, including sharing some extremely strong opinions on Tolkien matters important to us (like Elwing discourse), so it's a very long friendship these days. We even know each other's public-facing names.

@sqbr - Sean and I go way back (P&P fandom on livejournal and various forums, though we mostly got to know each other really well on Dreamwidth). By the time I followed them on Tumblr we'd been close friends and fellow endurers of the Austen fandom cisheteronormativity trenches for years.

WELCOME TO PART 3 OF MY SANJI WITH HETEROCHROMIA SERIES!!!!

Oh my god. Yall are insane. 700+ Notes for part one of this series alone is crazy (Crazy? I was- *gets shot*). So heres part 3. I'll probably have to publish all this onto AO3 soon bc shits getting outta hand, but I like posting on this silly little site so I'll still be posting on here.

Uhhh this was posted WAY later than I anticipated bc i had a gnarly depressive episode and had to enroll into uni, but there aint no way id abandon this series, its too fun and i love experimenting with my baby writing style as i call it.

Okay thats it, just thank u all sm for enjoying my silly little series :) u guys are so sweet!!

P.S. Constructive criticism is OKAY! I havent written fanfic in like...10 years so since middle school. Im a baby at this and I understand if I may have several errors so pls lemme know if theres grammar mistakes!

Sanji With Heterochromia Series Part 3 below 🔻

Sanji lied. He does like the idiot. More than he's willing to admit. A few days after their conversation, Zoro distances himself. It leaves a nasty feeling in his gut similar to nausea but different from actually wanting to throw up. It feels apprehensive. He's waiting for something, but he doesn't know what yet. Sanji hates it. He hates how confused he is and how much he actually wants Zoro to touch him again. He hates the burning linger of scarred knuckles on his cheekbone that follows him wherever he goes.

He hates these feelings because he never learned how to really process them. He doesn't know if he has to blame himself, his shitty excuse of a father, or Zeff. Well, maybe not Zeff. The old man had enough on his plate while raising him as it was. Sanji decides to blame it on Judge because honestly, the root of most of his issues stems from that shitty old man anyway. Placing the blame on someone does little to actually help, but it's a distraction from his growing realization of how much he cares for Zoro.

He cares for Zoro. No, he holds an unreasonable amount of affection for the scarred swordsman that haunts his thoughts now more than ever. Fuck questioning sexuality when it's undeniable that he's absolutely whipped for the big idiot. Theres no room for denial anymore, not when his touch had become branded across Sanji's skin for the foreseeable future.

Stress cooking does little to soothe him and it's the same with smoking. At least Luffy gets to enjoy snacks to his hearts content. Its the little things, he tries to tell himself. He also reflects on his conversation with Zoro. How he honestly felt afraid of what he felt when the swordsman confronted him. He felt afraid of someone genuinely caring for his emotional wellbeing. He's anxious over what that means, what it would do to him if Zoro truely meant what he said. All the things voiced about him and the implications that he's...handsome in the eyes of Zoro.

Sanji is emotional. It comes with him being sentimental as well. He's the black sheep of his biological family in every way. He loved too hard, and got hurt too fast. He loved even when it ended in betrayal. Secretly, he loves unconditionally. What would happen if he loved Zoro like that, and what if it already happened and he's too late to stop it? Would Zoro hurt him just like everyone else has? Would he be pushed away eventually after the thrill of their theoretical short lived relationship?

It keeps him up at night, that conversation replaying in his head as he stares at Zoro's sleeping silhouette. He falls asleep to his breathing, echoing throughout the room over everyone else's breath and snores. He wakes up every morning before the sun greets him and pretends nothing happened in his dreams where Zoro's gentle touch and admiration lingers softly over his mind.

Zoro knows. Well, not exactly. He's not a mind reader like how Luffy seems to be, but he knows that distancing himself from Sanji is actually doing the opposite of what he thought it would do. At this point, the swordsman isnt sure where to go from here.

Sanji's actions contradict his words. Sanji stares at Zoro. Not so much that it's s uncomfortable but it's enough to be noticeable. Sometimes he swears he can see Sanji's eyes dart across his face and down to his lips before looking away. It's confusing. Didnt Sanji hate Zoro's advances towards him? Because thats what they were in hindsight.

Zoro was unconciously flirting with the cook in his own weird way. And yeah, he's a little stupid for not realizing the implications behind his actions at first, but it all started as genuine curiosity. He didnt mean for it to affect their rivalry. Now, he's not sure where to go from here.

It's driven him between a rock and a hard place and unforfunately for him, Nami decides to intervene again. This time, Nami drags Zoro to her and Robin's shared room on the Sunny for privacy and possibly interrogation. He's certain that this time he wont be able to escape. Unfortunate.

"Okay, so heres how this is gonna go," Zoro and Nami are now seated across from each other, where theres two beds and enough room for decent sized dressers on each side. Zoro sits on what he assums is Robin's bed with his arms crossed, "You will tell me everything- And i mean it! I will know if youre lying -and I will help you. Im sick and tired of you both being miserable and gay! It's giving everyone second hand embaressment." She demands, narrowing her eyes with a challenge for Zoro to protest or say no.

Zoro is smart enough to know what is and isn't a losing battle. This is one of those. Nami can be terrifyingly persistent once she sets her mind on something, and today it seems to be resolving the weird and awkward tension between him and Sanji. The swordsman resigns himself to his fate quickly and prepares himself to be trapped here on Robin's bed for the foreseeable future.

"Fine witch," Zoro sighs, "But if you tell anyone I will not be responsible for my actions." He huffs out in acceptance for his inevitable interrogation.

"Oh please like that'll actually scare me. Plus besties never snitch." Nami rolls her eyes. She gets comfortable on her bed and look at zoro expectantly. He rolls his eyes and relaxes his posture a bit.

Zoro starts talking, beginning with the first instance of his realization of Sanji having dual colored eyes, leaving out a lot of "unimportant" details. He mentions the second, and the third instance, and their conversation from a few days ago and how he tried to respect Sanji's establishment of a boundary and how he's confused now that Sanji stares at him. Nami listens with her chin resting on her fist and nodding along the way, surprisingly not interrupting once. He finishes speaking and he knows his face is red with embaressment, but he feigns nonchalance and waits for Nami's input.

"Zoro," Nami sighs, "Youre the dumbest bitch I know." She says while giving the man a look of sympathy, but not one that actually means it. More like the look of someone who is so incredibly done with your shit that they have no choice but to tell you so.

"What the fuck, Nami!? Im not dumb!" The swordsman retorts loudly.

"Anyways," his best friend ignores his arguing in favor of getting to the task at hand, "Luckily, this is fixable. For making the entire crew feel awkward for two weeks, I'm adding a 200 percent tax increase to your debt." She smiles mischeviously, and thats when Zoro realizes that one, he's never getting out of debt, and two, he's been forced to accept Nami's help in unfucking up his unconcious attempts to flirt with Sanji.

"First order of business is that you have absolutely no game." Nami begins with a shit eating grin to match the absolutely insulting statement. Zoro briefly reconsiders their friendship.

"Shut the fuck up I obviously do." He rolls his eyes. Nami gives him the look. The one where her eyebrows are raised and her chin is tilted down slightly, matching the frown. It's that look she makes when she's trying to say 'Are you sure?' or 'Reconsider what you just said.' and it grates at Zoro's already increasing agitation.

He decides not to entertain her with a reply.

"Anyway," Nami sighs, massaging the space between her eyes with her thumb and forefinger to stave off a growing headache, "Im teaching you how to flirt. No, you cannot work out in front of Sanji- dont give me that look you muscle brained idiot!" She says while looking at Zoro's ever increasing looks of annoyance and audacity, because first of all, no he definitely was not going to do that, and second of all, it could hypothetically work. Probably.

"Fine," He huffs. He'll let the witch do whatever. It's not like theres anyone else he can talk to on the ship about this anyway, "No promises that I'll actually do what you tell me."

"Fucking- oh my god why am I friends with you?!" Nami complains before flopping down on her bed, groaning loudly at Zoro's malicious cooperation. Zoro basks in the momentary power he has in this situation.

For the next few hours, Nami allows Zoro to stay in the womens quarters for the sole purpose of learning how to actually flirt. He's not sure if shes a reliable source, being a lesbian and also having a girlfriend already, but if he voiced this opinion out loud the redhead would probably kick him out. He only restrains himself because this room is the only one so far where he feels the least amount of awkwardness regarding his situation with Sanji.

Robin stops by every now and then and gives him a smile. It doesnt make him feel very comfortable but it's the thought that counts. She doesnt say anything about him being there, anyway. He makes an effort to at least not lay on the bed he's sitting on, though. He may be lazy but he does hold enough respect for the women in the crew to not fuck with their shared safe space.

Suddenly, it's the evening and dinner is around the corner. Nami shoves a barely enlightened mossy swordsman out of the womens bedroom to finally be free of that headache. Also known as a crash course to flirting with your rival/friend/whatever the fuck else they got going on.

Zoro makes his way to the gallery, taking his time to look out and observe the oncoming sunset that bathes the sky in shades of pink, orange, blue, and yellow. It would be a pretty sight to fall asleep to, he thinks, but the cook would kick his ass off the ship if he decides to sleep through dinner again.

Entering the gallery, everyone except Nami is already there. She's right behind him a second later and taking her seat at the kitchen table.

Numerous conversations are heard as food is served. Franky and Usopp are wildly talking about different types of projectiles the sunny could use, Nami and robin are talking amongst each other in low voices, giggling in between sentences. Chopper and luffy are laughing together, and Zoro goes to sit next to luffy like he usually does. Just as he sits down, the cook lands a kick to his mid back, making Zoro scowl.

"The fucks that for!?"

Sanji rolls his eyes while placing plates of food down for the crew, "For being late, dumbass."

"Nami is late too!"

"And? She'd never be late on purpose, Marimo." as Sanji speaks, he dodges the hilt of Zoro's sword to his side instinctively and has the audacity to give a cheeky grin.

Dinner passes by normally. Everyone's loud conversations meld together gradually and soon everyone except Sanji and Zoro leave. Zoro takes his usual spot beside the cook, drying dishes and leaving them on a towel afterwards so they can both put them away.

Zoro has half the mind to bring up Sanji's staring, but decides against it. It leaves the air silent, neither him nor Sanji speaking up as they finish their side work for the night. Even then, Zoro's unable to speak when Sanji immediately leaves afterwards without a word.

The kitchen feels empty without their bickering, and Zoro is determined to bring that life back into it. He just needs to figure out how.

Despite Nami's advice, Zoro has an idea. If the idiot cook doesnt see what he sees (His pretty face first of all, but Zoro thinks of his strength too. How Sanji easiely brushes off conflict like it's nothing despite the injuries that'll heal far faster than his own), then he'll make him see it. Frilly words never were Zoro's style, anyways.

One night before they all go to sleep and Zoro takes night watch, he corners the blond in the bathroom. Nami would probably be kicking his ass because of his timing, but a mirror is needed for his plan to work and the bathroom is the only place with one other than the women's bedroom.

When Zoro enters, Sanji turns to look at him before going back to washing his hair, his back towards Zoro. "Leave me alone, Moss, I'm im not in the fuckin mood," He grumbles to Zoro, who stands there waiting for Sanji to stop talking.

"Nope, I need a mirror for this and for you to listen for five minutes." Zoro replies, and when Sanji turns to argue his protests are gone from his lips when he sees a look of determination. Confused, annoyed, and also curious, Sanji doesn't reply.

Zoro walks up to Sanji until he's standing right behind him. The swordsman moves to kneel so they're relatively at the same height, but the stool makes Sanji slightly taller as he sits there and eyes Zoro warily.

"Whats going on with you, Moss? I'm trying to wash my hair." Sanji says, and Zoro can tell an insult dies on his tongue when he places his hands on Sanji's shoulders.

Zoro turns Sanji in front of the mirrior in the bathroom, the stool Sanji is seated on creaking lightly and scratching against the tile. Sanji remains speechless, still unable to brush off Zoro's palms on his bare shoulders like how he'd usually do.

"Tell me what you see, cook" He says, uncharacteristically soft underneath the edge his voice always seems to have. Sanji flinches when the swordsman's calloused hands tuck his frings behind his ear, displaying his face to them both.

"What the hell is up with you? Did Luffy hit your head too hard?" Sanji furrows his eyebrows at the mirror and looks at Zoro. Zoro huffs and rolls his eyes.

"Just tell me what you see about yourself, shit cook, I'll leave ya alone after or whatever." He grumbles back, the baritone of his voice vibrates against Sanji's back. It reminds him of Zoro's compliment, his face too close to his while they stand on the deck of the Sunny just days ago. He chooses to ignore how it makes him shiver.

He looks at himself in the mirror, and his first instinct is to look away. Zoro, being the perceptive bastard that he is, notices and squeezes his shoulders in a way thats strangely reassuring.

"It doesnt have to be fancy, cook, I know you like to use big words 'n shit so don't make your brain fuckin explode." Sanji bristles a bit at that but bites back a nasty insult so he can entertain Zoro's weird exercise on his own self reflection.

In the mirror he always sees his mom at first, but with both eyes uncovered and his hair pushed back for once, he sees himself. The first thing he sees is his eyebrows and eyes. He decides not to bring up his eyebrows.

"Well, for your information I see my eyes, but you already know that."

Zoro stays silent, and Sanji shuffles in his seat. He's suddenly aware he was literally in the middle of rinsing his hair of shampoo a few minutes ago and the entire situation is both awkward and uncharacteristic of Zoro in multiple ways. It's out of character, and he should have kicked out the moss ball when he had the chance, but now in the too small bathroom of the Sunny he feels like it's only him and Zoro. It leaves a weightless feeling in his chest, settling in with the creeping anxiety of looking at his own reflection. The contrasting feelings make him hesitate before he speaks.

"I see.." He hesitates, not knowing exactly what Zoro is getting from this or what he wants to hear, "My eyebrows, I guess. Wait, you've never seen both at once." Sanji chuckles at that, because his eyebrows are certainly something. The curl points in the same direction, but it's unnoticeable with how he wears his hair.

"Yeah, they're weird as fuck." Zoro mumbles, and the blond has to laugh or else the swordsman's voice would get to his head.

"Okay, I also see freckles. Those are new. Only started showing up when I joined you all." And Sanji now notices how the freckles cluster on the bridge of his nose, his cheekbones, and his shoulders. They're scattered everywhere else on his body.

Sanji starts to realize the point of Zoro's questioning now. He looks at the fogged mirror, just visible enough to notice how his blush not only spreads across his cheeks but also down his neck. Embarrassing. This whole situation is embarrassing not only because of where they are but also because he's realizing that Zoro is trying to make a point that is too close to unearthing his insecurities. He would have expected this from Luffy, but sometimes he forgets how Zoro's intelligence is masked behind his swordsmanship and how much he sleeps during the day.

And he's naked, but honestly thats the least of his problems at the moment.

"I see my hair, I guess?" Sanji tries to only focus on his face. Its not easier, but it also sets up a mental boundary. Zoro hums, looking at Sanji through the mirror. Sanji hesitates before speaking again, "My hair is actually wavy," He thinks about his mom's wavy blonde hair, and how he always thought it looked pretty even before she passed, "Its damaged, though. Straightened to hell and back with one of those hot combs."

Sanji thinks back to the hot combs. They were old as shit, the kind that needed to be heated up with a flame. The memories make him chuckle a bit, and Zoro smiles back. The same smile he wore when they sparred on the deck, with his dimples visible yet again to confirm to Sanji that he does have them.

His smile makes his heart skip a beat, like drums he'd hear in one of those old instrumental CDs he kept in his room as a kid. Before he has the chance to back away, to push Zoro out the door and forget this ever happened, Zoro straightens his back again.

He turns in his stool to look up at Zoro and he's not sure what the swordsman sees right now, but he's afraid to ask as his gaze is soft. So damn soft as he looks at him and his hand reaches again to pull his hair hair back over his eye like it was before. Stringy strands of heat damaged locks fall back into place.

Then he leaves. He just...leaves. The damn idiot just turns around and walks out the door like nothing even happened.

Thats the second time this has happened yet the first where Sanji is the one on the receiving end of it, and it makes him grab his towel to bunch it up in his fists and let out a scream into it as he processes everything. He processes how he was forced to notice how Zoro looked at him, and it was Zoro's own weird fucking way of saying "You're beautiful".

"He's so fucking ridiculous oh my god.." Sanji mumbles into the towel. His hair routine is officially long forgotten.

I have a very silly question for you.

Which of your characters would you assign as the protagonist to each mainline pokemon game.

(so for example, Randy was the protagonist of your BDSP/platinum playthrough, and Lav is for paldea)

duplicates are allowed

For the fun of it, I'll throw in which starter they'd pick as well. :3

Randy would LOVE to go to Alola, so I would like to have him be the protagonist of Sun/Moon. His starter.... I could see him picking Popplio. Surfing buddy. :3

Akoya I see fitting well in Sword/Shield. If she knew the starters' final forms, she'd pick Grookey. Big cool ape resonates with her. X3

Lav... I'm just gonna keep it to Paldea, and not even share which starter she'll pick.

I can also see Momo being in Sw/Sh, picking the go-getter Scorbunny. I feel like she would really get into the sports theme it has going. Also the giant Pokemon. XD

Midas I could see being in Black/White (maybe the 2's as well, but more so the first ones). With me seeing him as a Grass type trainer, he'd probably pick Snivy. (It could be fun to have him train the stereotypical "Smugleaf", lol)

Alola (Su/Mo) also feels like a good match for Persim, but it's hard to decide which starter he'd pick. He really wouldn't be a great trainer, per se. I feel like Litten would pick him, and drive him to be a better trainer. XD

Rosemary... Hmmmmmm.... Maybe she'd hear tales of Hoenn from her dad, and go on to be the protagonist of Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, or more likely, Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire. She'd absolutely pick Torchic, assuming she knew their final forms. Blaziken is just her type.

I'll throw in the Branch crew too, why not~

Jovial I could see in Kanto--FireRed, LeafGreen, Let's Go. (maybe the OG GameBoy games, but I don't like playing them lol). She'd pick Squirtle.

Nicodemus I feel would be in HeartGold/SoulSilver (or the OGs). He'd pick Chikorita for it's chill vibe.

Pari... It's actually really hard to see her becoming a trainer. She already went alongside some trainers on their journey, and had a front-row seat to the trials and dangers they went through. So she might be a bit hesitant to do it herself. She'd much rather tag along with one of her human friends should they do another trainer journey. Mostly to protect them if something happened.

I don't know if that's what you meant, but I hope it was enjoyable nonetheless. X3

hello my beautiful ray of moonshine🥹🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️🌚 im sosososo sorry that youre having a stupid baka time but i know the it is what it is & move on -_- in you will be stronger than the million evil rays and spears and knives that the universe is throwing at you❣️❣️❣️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 obviously my question is gonna be how its going with sw ekdjsjdsjdj the first third is good but not particularly mind blowing on first read so i get it if you dont have a lot to say yet but i was too curious not to ask ehehe

ari my handwsome handwsome prince & liege lord to my eunuch slitheringness ❤️❤️❤️🥹🥹🥹 every day i love you moreeeee and put my wicked servileness&shadowy ways to make sure you rise above the world. and yes!! standing strong, i have not lived 24 years in this fuckass padania with these fuckass padani just to give up & kill myself in a place where there's no sun and the air quality is suckass ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻

im actually having a lot of fun with it!! taking it slow bc the boytorture has to be real slow boiling (subject to change depending on how cooked the boytorture gets). there's a certain je ne sais babydoll but if toji was a kinsey 5 autistic to the prose that gets stuck in my head, especially in scenes like having to order at a mcdrive under death threat and still not getting the burger your autistic ass doesn't necessarily like but orders often <- life do be like that, unironically mostly

Does Dazzle exist in the silly celestials au?

At the moment no! Silly Celestials as an "everyone lives" AU already had a very full cast even before Ruin became a character, and even then some characters get neglected (like how Solar Flare is meant to be Eclipse's son later in the timeline, but that's not something I think about much because there's so much other stuff going on). Solstice (Ruin) is probably the Last "newer" character addition to the main AU because I'm biased and think he's fun with Eclipse, with Jack also getting a pass being in Helios' dimension which is it's own smaller, more self contained thing. Characters like the Astrals, Dazzle, Molten, Puppet, Foxy, SW, and so on currently are not likely to be a part of the au, with maybe characters from other dimensions like Dark Sun making cameos later down the timeline. But that's still extending pretty far for an AU primarily made to replace the Killcode Family arc.

I read the first volume of Nightwing 2011 and it violently flung me back in time to when the Nu52 stuff was first coming out and how mad I was about all of it, that I'm not wrong that I was bored by all this new stuff--I read that entire volume and only the Alfred cameo had me even consider making a post about it, despite that it was prime content, Dick inheriting the Circus! William Cobb mention! Court of Owls! Kyle Higgins writing it! and yet I had nothing to say about any of it--but the bigger lesson I took away was: I remember that mindset of constantly being mad at comics and it's exhausting just thinking about it. "Nobody hates comics like comics fans" was funny to me back in the day, but now I'm too tired to want to go down that road again, I've done my time in the salt mines, I'm parking my butt out in the sunshine now. There's a lot of things I'd love to see done better about current day comics, but there's a lot that's genuinely just fun, I enjoyed Gotham War, I enjoyed the hell out of Beast World, it was so silly and fun, I'm enjoying Tom Taylor's Nightwing series, I'm enjoying viewing Babs as Batgirl through my own lens of what invisible disabilities are like to go through and how much you have to claw back even when it's not "obvious" that you're not fully able-bodied, all things that sure could be better, but I have personally chosen to stay in the sun and find the joy. Reading Nightwing 2011 I was catapulted back into that mindset of Being Mad At Comics and it was just the opposite of fun, I don't want to spend my time being mad about the costume color's change from blue to red, I want to read a comic and find a moment of joy and come yell at the internet about it. So, like. If you see me be doggedly positive and think my taste is shit, fair enough, but also just know that I have decided I am letting go of my anger at the funnybooks as much as I can because, at the end of the day, they're comic books and I have a choice: Be mad or have fun. I'm choosing fun because I, on a personal level, need that. (And also I think there's a lot to have fun with!) (This post also brought to you by Star Wars. Oh my goooood there's so much I could complain about in Star Wars, some of it is So Bad, but like. Where is that going to get me, on a grand scale? Nowhere fun! This is my hobby, I'm skimming over the bad and finding the stuff that I think is cute or funny, because I nearly left the SW fandom a bunch of times because constant negativity was absolutely killing any energy I had to be here.)

[firebrands (avar x elzar x stellan) + sunbathing + breeze]

Avar tilted her face towards the sun, sighing contentedly.

This time of day—midday—most Jedi were getting lunch, finishing up meetings or classes, or otherwise occupied, which meant this particular meditation garden on the Temple’s grounds was usually unoccupied.

She’d found her usual spot in a small clearing of downy, vibrant green grass. Flowering bushes and leafy plants bordered the front half of the small meadow, their summer blooming blossoms carrying a sweet scent through the air. Behind her, a small ring of trees rustled in the warm breeze. The light wind tugged a few strands from her loose braid, tickling them across her cheeks.

Eyes closed, she let herself fall into the music of nature around her, into the Force. She drifted into its melody. Each trembling leaf; each chirp and flutter of wings from nearby song sparrows; every footstep of every Jedi in the Temple beneath her; the distant, constant hum of Coruscant traffic beyond these walls; every sound harmonizing together within the Force’s song.

Avar leaned back on her hands, legs stretched out in front of her, crossed at the ankles. The top layer of her Temple robes was discarded on the grass somewhere to her left. She could have sat beneath the shade of the trees—it certainly would have kept her cooler. But the warmth of the sun on her face was too good to pass up.

Being immersed in the Force as she was, she felt them before she saw them. Or rather, heard their distinct notes in her Force-song. Elzar and Stellan.

Quickly enough, she actually heard them—Stellan said something she couldn’t make out and Elzar guffawed loudly in response.

She was grinning ear to ear by the time they plopped down on the grass beside her. She’d barely opened her eyes before Elzar was shoving a box towards her.

“Brought you something,” Elzar beamed at the same time a smiling Stellan said, “Hi.”

“Hi yourselves,” she laughed. She eyed the box. “Lunch?”

Stellan shrugged a shoulder, padawan braid falling with it. “We know you sometimes skip lunch to come up here when it’s quiet.”

“And we also know how cranky you get when you’re hungry,” Elzar added, warm brown eyes catching hers.

“Hey now!” she protested, leaning forward to poke him in the arm.

“See what I mean?” he grinned back.

Stellan just shook his head and started dividing up their food.

A little while later—sandwiches devoured and canteens of Gnostra berry juice balanced carefully on the ground beside them—all three of them lounged in the quiet garden meadow.

Avar was still sitting up, Elzar’s head now in her lap, the rest of him sprawled out. Stellan had taken Avar’s top robe and folded it up into a pillow, laying himself down next to Elzar, his head near Avar’s folded knee. Avar toyed mindlessly with Elzar’s padawan braid, looping it around her finger. Elzar’s left hand was intertwined lazily with Stellan’s right. With his free hand, Elzar was munching on fat purple grapes, taking one or two for himself and then feeding them to Stellan intermittently.

They chattered all the while; Elzar poking fun at the stubble growing in across Stellan’s face; Stellan poking equal fun back at Elzar for falling on his ass (again) during one of Master Yoda’s classes for the more advanced padawans that involved extreme acts of balance while meditating.

Avar listened to their back and forth, smiling down at them. Her boys.

Soaking in the sunlight, her heart swelled with the brilliance of their combined Force-song. The three of them had always been stronger together, after all.
