L, R, Z — arabella 💖

💕 VALENTINE'S DAY ALPHABET

L — LOVE : who does your muse love?

not aiden jeon arabella doesn't love easily but there are a few people in her life that she knows she loves. the first is samuel. he's literally one of the few people that she'll happily make time for. arabella loves samuel because she always feels so happy whenever she's around him. he always manages to put her in a better mood and he's the only person that she would drop everything for. arabella also loves katie and sees her as a younger sister figure. she also considers katie to be her closest, if not her best friend, and is very protective over her. she loves to go and support katie's films and always tries her best to give her advice.

R — ROMANCE : is your muse a romantic or a cynic?

arabella definitely leans more towards being a cynic. for someone who stars in so many period dramas that revolve around love, it's hard for her to see the world through a romantic lens. arabella prefers to see things realistically. she knows that she'll achieve the things she wants through hard work and not because she simply wished for it. she knows that she got to where she is now through her hard work and not because she was destined for it.

Z — ZZZ : how many people has your muse slept with?

arabella has slept with a few people before she started dating samuel. she's not one to have casual hookups with random people that she'd meet but she did have a couple of brief flings with ex co-stars. arabella had her needs and she preferred to sleep with someone that she at least knew that a random person that she'd never see again (she has standards). a messy situation with one of her co-stars did change her outlook a little bit, that's why she was initially hesitant in pursuing samuel when they first met.

Here Now - Joshua Hong

WC: 1k || Genre: Fluff, Hurt/Comfort, Angst (?) || Lover boy Joshua Hong is in the house!!

A/N: I'm not gonna tell y'all what to do but...you maybe totally should envision this to "Lean On Me" (aka my favoritest SVT song ever)

It's been days since you've gotten up from the comfy nest you created for yourself on your bed. Wrapped up in blankets and snuggling pillows like a newborn monkey.

You hadn't gotten sick like this in forever, it's very possible that you haven't been this sick in your entire life actually. You've been calling out of work for days and any movements made past the kitchen or the bathroom were futile attempts that would leave you hurling.

So all in all, you're extremely lucky to have Joshua by your side. Bringing you meals, making you meals, making sure you're taking medicine, he even took a few days off to make sure that if you needed him he was there.

Which, if you were being honest, made you feel even more sick.

It's not like the attention wasn't appreciated...no! You loved the way that Shua loved. You really truly did! It's rare that fights ever caused wedges between you because he was always so good with communication. He was always keen on making sure that you knew that he was yours and only yours, calling every single night on tour and planning dates like it was his job. Shua was - just as he's boasted about all these years - a gentleman.

But you'd be lying if you didn't acknowledge that this didn't feel right, that him taking care of you felt comfortable. It was anything but.

You can take care of yourself and you have for many many years. So when Shua started to bring over food, made sure to set alarms to remind you to take medicine, and spend nights at your place - it's fair to say that you felt suffocated? Or it's more like you didn't want to take up his time.

Joshua is busy. You've always known him to be extremely hard-working, not only in your relationship but also in his professional life. And it's not like you ever minded, in fact, you enjoy being alone. It's just how life has turned out for you thus far, in ways, being alone is much more comfortable than being surrounded by others constantly.

When you'd gotten together it was pretty out of the ordinary. It's not like you're polar opposites but Shua is so outgoing, friendly, and sociable - it astonished you how kind he was to everyone. To be able to call him your boyfriend seems a bit like a privilege. And it only made it that much harder to accept this kind of care.

"You don't have to do all this Shua."

"Hmm? What do you mean?" He stares at you from the edge of the best where he's sitting, the thermometer still in his hand as he had just checked your temperature.

"I mean take time off and stuff. You don't have to do this for me."

Utterly confused he keeps quiet, placing the thermometer on the nightstand. He's always been good about letting other people have the space to speak.

"I know you're trying to be nice...but I can do stuff myself. You don't have to dote on me." He's letting you finish your speech but as you look into his eyes you can see he's readying himself to refute. "I know you're busy-"

"No." His tone is so stern that it scares you.

"Josh-" You nervously rub your hands together but Shua is quick to hold your palms in his.

"I'm not busy, y/n. I'm not busy when it comes to you."

"That's the thing Shua! You really shouldn't feel like you need to do any of this just because I'm your partner or out of any obligations...." He sees the guilty look on your face as you stare down at your intertwined fingers.

He scoffs, "Yeah and you shouldn't feel like you're a burden to me because I'm your partner." He rolls his eyes with a smile but you're completely blown away by the statement. "Seriously...you act like we're not gonna recite the words "through sickness and health" one day."

"Yeah but you have so much going on- I've taken care of myself for forever so it's really okay for me to continue to do so. I haven't had the kind of support you do, y'know? I've grown accustomed to being alone and doing things alone..." You take a big breath and let it out, letting the weight glide off your shoulders. "I just don't want to be another thing you think you have to worry about."

He's looking at you with the biggest stupidest doe eyes, taking in every single word you say. It only makes your heart pound more and not in any sort of lovesick manner, but in embarrassment of the situation.

"You're so...frustrating sometimes y/n."

Dumbfounded at the jab your face screws up in disbelief of his words...it feels like your world could come crashing down right now. Maybe you just shouldn't have said anything-

"I know you've done things all on your own. You're literally one of the strongest people I know. It's one of my favorite qualities about you. You're independent, reliable, and so- Just- Ugh!" He facepalms. "I know all of this about you - you're so perfect and it breaks my heart that you would ever think you could be any sort of problem for me. I'm here for you. Yes, you've learned to go through it all alone and take care of yourself. But that doesn't mean that you have to do that...especially not anymore."

You don't know if it would be more appropriate to cry or smile in this situation so you resolve to just holding him as close as you can. You can feel as tears begin to gather but you hold yourself together -although, now you know that he wouldn't mind if you let it all go.

"It worries me so much that you feel like you can't lean on me." He rests in the crook of your neck and speaks against your skin.

"Just rest now, babe. Look your temp is already a lot better than yesterday." He separates from you and holds the thermometer up as proof, "Rest. I'm here now and I refuse to let you go through life alone!" That goofy smile that had you fallen head over heels for adorns his face.

*RING RING RING* "Medicine alarm..." He presses a kiss to your cheek. Yeah, you're really lucky to have Joshua.

A/N: Crying, I love him, Mom!! Also, I'm so sorry this took so much longer to write than I expected. I was out of ideasssss and dialogue was so rough to come up with for this one. (lowkey might wake up tmrw and feel so shit abt the dialogue ;-;) But thank you for requesting @honglynights !! I hope you enjoy! Please Reblog and Comment if you enjoyed ! (They act as power-ups for me)

(Look at him being silly)

Like The Movies

Hobie Brown x fem! reader (college au)

Hi my love! 🤍 Thank you so much for the well wishes. It isn't weird!! 😠 Who told you that?? As promised, "loser" Hobie to celebrate. (I love my silly little guy. I'm putting him in my pocket).

I just want to say, to everyone who asked what would happen if I didn't win ( @hyperfix-wip )- I guess we'll never know 🤷‍♀️

cw: dorks, the lot of them

~

The smell of butter soaked popcorn has been stuck to Hobie’s clothes for hours now. Along with a straining headache. Rubbing his temples he tries to focus on the ugly red carpet instead of the screen at the cash register.

Ten more minutes then he was home free. Excluding the quick stop he was going to make to the video game store across the mall. The missing piece for his game cube was finally in stock.

He was debating grabbing pizza from the food court too but with his roommate gone for the weekend what was the point? Hobie really wishes Ned well but he’s disappointed that he’ll be spending his time off without his best friend.

It’s times like these that he wishes he was closer to his family. Deciding and then being accepted to attend university here in New York is a mixed blessing.

He’s learning incredible things, meeting new people, and living on his own. On the other hand, he’s still new to the US and its customs.

It’s exhausting after a while and he can’t even be comforted by anything other than the things he brought with him from Camden.

A beep from his watch alerts him that his shift is over and Hobie doesn’t waste a second in clocking out and discarding the thing he calls a uniform. He’s still polite of course. Says his goodbyes and wishes everyone a happy holiday despite not celebrating Thanksgiving himself.

He must look tired because most shoppers steer clear of him. At the most he’ll receive two or three compliments on his outfit. Or maybe they’re just preoccupied with the sales and discounts going on in various stores.

He mutters an apology as he brushes past a group to step inside the brightly colored store with posters and ads for the newest game. Hobie has learned Christmas lights in November is normal. He cringes as he hears a popular pop song play through the speakers. It’s maybe the twentieth time today he’s listened to it.

“Hobie, hey! Give me a sec.” Ganke pushes his glasses up the bridge of his nose. Gesturing to the box Hobie presumes holds his order. “I’ll ring you up as soon as I can.”

“Course, no rush.”

And Hobie means that sincerely. There’s more than four customers in line with a dozen more circling figures and t-shirts. He may be tired but he knows well enough how demanding customer service can be.

To add a little more reassurance to Ganke’s mind, Hobie points to a random section of games. “I wanted to take a look around anyway.”

Ganke nods with a grin that never seems to fall from his face.

Hobie would consider this store his second home. He is on a first name basis with Ganke and he was even invited out by the younger boy to a flea market. They both shared a love for retro and vintage. Hobie met a friend of his too, Miles. It was the most fun he’s had since his arrival in August.

A sigh leaves his lips as the section he had planned to browse is blocked by a group of teenagers and yes, he himself is a teenager but something about American air made people lose their common courtesy.

He spins, planning to give up and just wait by the counter when something smacks into his chest. Not hard but definitely strong enough that the person who walked into him is sent stumbling back.

An apology spills from his lips and he’s met with one himself. The air from his lungs leaves his chest as he comes face to face with a girl. He knows you.

He knows because he shares a music composition class with you. He remembers because he embarrassed himself in front of the class. Hobie’s only ever written baselines so orchestral music has been a struggle for him.

“Why are you sorry?” You laugh softly. Fixing the bag on your shoulder full of pins and charms. “I bumped into you.”

“Are you ok?” You ask and Hobie isn’t sure what to do next.

He’s mortified that the only interactions he’s had with you (which are far and few) are so embarrassing.

Hobie may or may not think you’re cute. It would be stupid of him not to notice you.

It’s not like he has a chance with such a pretty girl but he can at least not look like a fool in front of you every chance he gets.

“Uh yeah,” he falters, “I’m fine. Are you…ok?”

“Me?” You point to yourself in confusion.

“Yeah,” he repeats. “Did I nick you or something?”

“Oh.” You laugh again as you take in the patches and safety pins on his vest. “I think we’re good.”

When you stand on the tips of your toes Hobie understands what you mean and his ears grow hot with embarrassment.

Hobie is aware he’s tall enough to be a basketball player but compared to you he’s never realized quite how tall he is.

You smile and think about how cute his reaction is. Hobie isn’t shy, not by any means. You’ve seen him with his friends around campus. But you can understand how being out of your element can leave you walking on eggshells.

Classical music is the soul of your being. Movie scores to be more specific, not to mention game sources. You haven’t quite decided what route to take but for now you’re content with going back to the basics and writing Bach inspired pieces.

“Hey, I really liked your presentation. Did you get a good score?”

“I did, yeah.”

Hobie thinks you must be lying to avoid making him feel bad. The professor too because he earned almost full marks.

He doesn’t understand why when his piece was so…awful. Nothing like yours or Flash Thompson’s.

“That’s great! I liked the third movement. It reminded me of um…” You snapped your fingers. “Bowser’s theme. You know, from the first Mario game?”

Hobie doesn’t mean to, he really doesn’t, but he laughs.

“What? I’m serious!” You grin as you reach for your phone. Insistent to make your point and be proven right.

“You can’t be.” Hobie almost guffaws. “It was a dumpster fire!”

“Was not!” You argue. Bringing your phone up to his ear after furiously typing.

Hobie looks at you in surprise. Stuck between your outstretched hand and your determined face. After a supportive nod from you and a smile he slowly leans down to listen.

You pause on certain points of the video. Rambling on about concepts the two of you have learned but obviously you know better.

The video takes exactly three minutes and fifty three seconds but you managed to lengthen the amount of time it would normally take to finish and soon enough he realizes you’re not just cute. You’re cute and you like games.

You weren’t trying to make him feel better you were making honest and valid points.

Now he feels like an ass for laughing so he’s quick to wave his white flag in surrender.

“Alright, alright. You win love. Has anyone ever told you you’re a bold little thing?”

“I have been called that on occasion, yes.”

Hobie hums. His lips tugging into a smile. “Don’t ever change.”

Butterflies erupt in your stomach as you return his smile. “I won’t, promise.”

“What are you in here for if you don’t mind me asking? Aside from analyzing my music.”

“I don’t mind at all,” you answer. Feeling giddy. “There’s a poster I’ve been looking for and- tada.”

Hobie chuckles at the glee on your face as you hold up your prize.

“Is that right? Congratulations.”

“Thank you kind sir,” you giggle. “I was just heading over to pay when I bumped into you.”

“Guess it was a good thing I kept you occupied,” Hobie replies. “Line is gone now.”

You turn your head. Peeking over his shoulder to see the register is indeed free now.

“It appears so.” You tap his shoulder with the end of the rolled up poster. “Thank you again. You’ve done me a great honor sir.”

You relish in how much you’ve made Hobie laugh in the last few minutes you’ve talked. You’re disappointed this all has to end now.

Hobie snickers before bowing mockingly. “After you.”

You curtsey in return before walking over to Ganke. You’ve seen him a few times. Normally you come to the mall on weekends not weekdays but with the holidays coming up you had a few days off. Best to take advantage right?

Declining a bag you wait patiently for Ganke to finish the transaction but then he interrupts you from paying.

“Wait hold on, you have a birthday reward today.”

“Do I? Huh, I didn’t know the store had one.”

“Well, now your total comes down to less than ten dollars.”

“Sweet! Thank you.”

You step aside, thankful for Ganke’s chatty behavior because it give you an excuse to stay though Hobie’s own purchase. Both boys including you in their conversation about Hobie’s soon to be fully functioning game cube. Then you’re both walking out the door.

“So…” Hobie clicks his tongue. Anxious as the plastic bag he carries weighs down his hand. “Where are you off to now? Friends waiting at that nice restaurant?”

You shake your head, pointing to the direction of the movie theater. “Nope, there’s a screening for one of my favorite movies. It starts in about…ten minutes.”

Hobie’s eyebrows raise. “By yourself?”

“Mhm, was just killing some time.”

Hobie is at a loss for words. Spending your birthday alone sounds cruel. You deserve to have cake and gifts—the whole package. However it’s then that Hobie realizes he isn’t the only one who could be away from home.

“Mind if I come with you?” He blurts out.

Your eyes widen and in your stunned silence you feel the excitement build.

“Yes- I would love that!”

Gingerly clasping your hands together you happily tug him along. Explaining what movie you had bought a ticket for. Outwardly wondering if there were still seats available.

Hobie doesn’t feel dread walking back to the theater. He isn’t even upset when he smells popcorn again. With a soft smile he keeps his eyes on you. Only getting annoyed when his co-workers whistle behind his back and make exaggerated faces.

I apologize for ranting this to you.

I'm tired of the portrayal of Ares & Aphrodite relationship where ares is controlling and abusive to aphrodite and only using her for sex. I think there no myths about ares abusing her then they break up and make up afterward.

Is it bec he killed adonis and they automatically think ares is awful to aphrodite?? There are many myths about the death of adonis, in another version it apollo/artemis who killed him by sending out a boar. Ares killing adonis just happened to be a popular version. I just like to think adonis was killed by an ordinary boar.

Ares loves aphrodite. He just do whatever she told him to. In the iliad, he ends up breaking his promise to his mother and sister and agreed to support her instead. He even let her borrow his chariot when she injured. Someone posted this earlier. In the thebaid, he comforted her when she crying and he told her that she is his solace after war, his soul's only peace. And I also like to think they agree to be in an open relationship.

A lot of people will disagree with me on this but I don't think ares/aphrodites relationship is toxic or breakup-makeup drama. They have a child name HARMONIA. Which means that they are in harmony. In my opinion, harmony is an important requirement for successful relationship. The two them are compatible. The children they have together is symbolic, at least in my interpretation is the symbol of their love together. I want to talk more about it, but this is getting long and I don't want to bother you.

Headcanon:

Aphrodite: I know we agree to be in an open relationship. But the only goddess you can be lovers with is only me okay. That's why I curse Eos.

Ares: Yes, my love!

This is probably the reason why most of Ares' children are demigods. The only divine children he have is with Aphrodite. I don't remember him having children with other goddesses. If he does, then I like to think Eos is his last divine lover and proceed to have kids with his human lovers. Bec Aphrodite is his only divine lover lol.

Thank you for emphasizing the Adonis myth having multiple versions!! I use the Ares killed him version (so he can match Aphrodite’s freak with Eos) but nonetheless he rarely gets jealous !!!

And in one version he does have a child with the war goddess Enyo named Enyalius but I do ignore that since they aren’t really that prominent + prefer Enyo with someone else.

You can feel their love in many forms of art too!!

Love and War were made for each other 🤍

"Umm what's going on in here?" Bucky asked as he walked into your bathroom and noticed Steve was furiously trying to scrub something off your hip, "Did she get into the paints again?"

"No," Steve huffed, still harshly scrubbing your skin. If you didn't find Steve's reaction to your new tattoo hilarious, you'd be wincing in pain right now.

Bucky pushed Steve off you, once he noticed the look on your face as he was scrubbing away, "Steve, seriously, what are you doing?"

"She got some temporary tattoo but now it won't come off, I don't want her getting some kind of infection," Steve sighed, pulling your top up again to show Bucky.

"I told him it's not fake but he won't listen to me!" You pouted as Bucky carefully inspected your tattoo.

You had gotten it two weeks ago while they were both away for work. They'd just gotten back last night and still hadn't noticed the cute little heart with their initials etched on your hip.

"I can see that, doll, this is definitely real." Bucky chuckled, letting go of your top as he stood up again.

"It's what?!" Steve quickly walked back over to you, lifting your top up to look at the tattoo again, "This isn't fake? You were being serious when you said it's real?"

You quickly nodded, happy that he finally believes you. Bucky almost laughed watching Steve's reaction. The poor boy looked like he was gonna faint.

"I think it looks very hot, angel." Bucky smirked, winking at you.

"Bucky!" Steve exclaimed, hitting his arm.

"Hehe thank you, daddy! Got it just for you guys." You winked back at him.

Hope its not too late but I can’t get enough of your sleepy prompts! I don’t know exactly which one I want but I know I want more from you! Your choice, I’m sure it’ll be perfect🤍

Thank you so much 🥹

A few people asked me for a follow-up to yesterday's prompt, so I figured I'd do that with number 1 from the list.

1. “Baby, you look like you’re about to pass out.”

Prompt taken from here

Read on AO3

-

Beca slept late the next morning, well past when she usually would, and Chloe couldn’t blame her. 

The night before had been the worst and longest either of them could remember, and just getting Beca to close her eyes and sleep had been a battle all on its own.

Chloe had remained awake for the entire night, far too wired to be able to sleep, and she’d wanted to be there in case Beca woke up. 

Beca had ended up sleeping right through, and she didn’t start stirring until close to midday. 

“Hey,” Chloe said softly, brushing the hair from her face as Beca pulled herself from sleep. 

“Time is it?” Beca mumbled, grimacing as the pain in her head made itself known.

“Almost lunchtime,” Chloe said. 

The bruise on the side of her face was considerably worse now, and it made Chloe wince just to look at it. 

Beca slowly sat up in bed, her head swimming every time she moved. 

“Can I get you anything?” Chloe asked, wishing she knew how to help.

“No,” Beca said. “Yes. I need to pee, can you help me up?”

“Of course.” 

Chloe helped Beca off the bed before she unsteadily made her way to the bathroom. 

The fear and panic that had been radiating off Beca the night before seemed to be gone, which Chloe took as a good sign, but she wasn’t sure what had replaced it. 

When Beca returned she was still unsteady on her feet, which Chloe knew was the result of the concussion, but it still didn’t make her feel any less worried. While Beca had slept the night before, Chloe had been studying the pamphlet they’d given them at the hospital, and now her mind was running through the list of things to look out for, terrified that Beca wasn’t physically out of the woods yet.

“Are you okay?” Beca asked, her hands braced on their bed frame in an effort to keep herself upright.

“Yeah,” Chloe said, quickly. “Are you?”

Beca shrugged. “It all feels a bit… unreal.”

“Yeah,” Chloe said again. “It does.”

“You look tired,” Beca said. “Did you sleep at all?”

“I got a few hours,” Chloe lied. “I’m okay, Bec. I’m more worried about you.”

“I’d tell you not to, but I don’t think you’d listen,” Beca said, the smallest hint of a smile on her face.

“And you’d be correct,” Chloe replied. “Do you think you’d be up to eating lunch if I made some?”

The thought made Beca feel sick, but she knew refusing would only cause Chloe to worry more.

“I can try,” Beca said. 

Chloe took her hand, and the pair made their way slowly down the stairs.

The rest of the day passed by in a blur.

A police officer had come over to take a statement, Beca was on and off the phone with Theo, the press kept turning up and trying to trick them into letting them through the gates, and Beca managed to get an emergency video call with her therapist. 

It was an exhausting day, and Beca was dozing on the sofa by 8 pm. 

Chloe got her upstairs and back to bed, and she was fast asleep before Chloe had even changed.

She was relieved that Beca hadn’t needed coaxing to sleep, and she was looking forward to getting some rest herself.

Except when she finally climbed into bed, sleep wouldn’t come.

It was too quiet, and every creak of the house sent her heart racing. 

Beca’s security team had left now - they were really only intended for when Beca had shows or meet-and-greets - and the only thing keeping any intruders out was their high gate and burglar alarm. 

Despite what she’d told Beca the night before, Chloe couldn’t shift the idea that someone might try and repeat what that man and done to her. 

Anytime she’d opened her phone during the day, she’d found herself seeing that clip of Beca being attacked.

Whether she looked on a news site, Instagram, or TikTok, it seemed like it was everywhere.

And she knew she shouldn’t, but she couldn’t help but read the comments. For every five comments condemning the attacker, or wishing Beca a speedy recovery, there was one troll account who thought it was funny. Who thought Beca deserved it. Who would love to do it themselves.

It was all Chloe could think about.

What if they came for her?

What if they attacked her again next time she was out of the house?

What if she lost her?

Those thoughts kept her up for hours, long after the sun had risen again, and she braced herself for another busy day running on no sleep.

She snuck out of bed at 8 am and brewed the strongest pot of coffee she could.

She almost jumped out of her skin when she felt a hand on her back 20 minutes later.

“Sorry,” Beca said, taking a seat beside her at the kitchen table. “I didn’t mean to scare you.”

Chloe shook her head and willed her heart to slow down. “What are you doing up?”

“I woke up and you weren’t there,” Beca said, hating how pathetic she sounded.

“I’m sorry, Bec,” Chloe said, giving Beca a quick kiss. “I woke up early and couldn’t get back to sleep.”

“It’s okay,” Beca said, waving her off. 

“How are you feeling?”

“A little better,” Beca said. “My head is still killing me, but the anxiety is better.”

“That’s good,” Chloe said. “Can I get you anything?”

“I won’t say no to a coffee.”

“Not that,” Chloe said, rolling her eyes and smiling as Beca groaned dramatically. “30 seconds ago you said your anxiety was better, I’m not filling you with coffee now.”

“You’re so cruel.”

“I can make you a tea?”

Beca sighed. “That’ll have to do.”

Chloe stood up to grab her a mug, but her head started swimming as soon as she did, black spots peppering her vision.

“Chlo’?”

“I’m fine,” Chloe said, her hand gripping the counter as she waited for it to pass. “I just stood up too quick.”

“Baby, you look like you’re about to pass out,” Beca said, taking her arm and guiding her back to the kitchen table. “Sit down.”

“Sorry,” Chloe said, feeling embarrassed as her vision began to clear.

“Why on Earth are you sorry?”

“I’m supposed to be taking care of you,” she said. 

“Don’t be silly,” Beca said. “We’re married, we take care of each other.”

Chloe gave her a weak smile.

“You don’t look well,” Beca said, biting down on her bottom lip. She pressed the back of her hand against Chloe’s forehead. “You’re pale.”

“I’m fine,” Chloe said, again.

Beca let out a huff. “Please don’t lie to me,” she said. “I know I got hurt, I know I freaked out and I probably scared you half to death, but please don’t lie and tell me that you’re okay.”

Chloe sighed and took hold of Beca’s hand. “I’m sorry,” she said. “I haven’t been sleeping, and I think it’s catching up to me.”

“How come?”

“I’ve been scared,” she said. “Scared that you’re more hurt than we realise. Scared that I missed something, and I’m going to wake up and you’ll be…” Chloe shook her head. “I’m scared he’ll come back. I’m scared that this will happen again.”

“Baby, why didn’t you say anything?”

“Because me freaking out won’t help you,” Chloe said. “Because if I’m this afraid, I can’t imagine how scared you must be, and you need me to be strong.”

Beca shook her head and then regretted it, wincing as her headache pulsed. “I need you to be here,” she said, once the pain subsided. “I need you to be okay, and you won’t be okay for long if you keep this up. I don’t want you to hide how you’re feeling because you think I can’t take it.”

“I’m sorry,” Chloe said. 

“Don���t be sorry,” Beca said. “If this were the other way around I’d… I’d be a mess. 

Chloe sniffed and squeezed Beca’s hand tighter as tears began slipping down her cheeks. “I hate that this happened.”

“Me too,” Beca said. “Speaking with Collette helped. Maybe… Maybe you could speak to someone too?”

“A therapist?”

Beca shrugged. “Why not? You were looking into it before, weren’t you?” 

“I guess,” Chloe said. “Okay. I’ll think about it.”

Beca grinned and pressed a kiss against Chloe’s knuckles. “Let’s go lie down, you need to sleep.”

Chloe didn’t argue, and the pair returned to their bedroom.

“It’s my turn to keep you safe now,” Beca said, kissing Chloe on the head as they settled down into bed. 

“I love you,” Chloe said, finally feeling herself relax as Beca cuddled into her side.

“I love you too.”

Feedback for my moodboard/reading.

Sorry if is long but couldn't describe it in just few lines plus you worked so hard and it shows!!

I admit it I'm not good at writing down my excitement and English not being my native language is another barrier, but if I tell you that as I saw the moodboard (the whole reading too) I let out the most embarassing noises and I wanted to flip tables (from excitement) can sum up my reaction and convey the really strong emotions I felt ?

This is honestly one of the best descriptions of my fs I had, from the moodboard to the reading. A lot of physical and personality traits you picked up on is exactly what I manifested for my future spouse and it makes me happy knowing that the universe heard me. Oh dear, you don't have to apologize for going a bit "over limit" because you did the right thing and I even thank you soo much for going over limit because it makes everything even more hot and I was blushing 🔥🤭

Now, how did you know I have a crush on Nicholas Chavez ???? 😭😭 plus manly and good looking??? stern, dominant and assertive??? literally the man of my dreams you mean!!! 😍😍 As for the rbf, I love it how the universe aligns things because I have a pic of me captioned "RBF" bec of my face and my future spouse has it too wow plus I got that in different fs PAC's and also other things you mentioned like working out a lot and turning heads when we walk in a room. This is soo cute!

Also, thank you so much for your sweet words. Indeed, my self-esteem is not high (I tend to hide my selfies behind other posts), but your words really cheered me up 🥺

Now the songs omg!!! I listened to all of the them and each one resonated even if I already knew some of these, so it was a further confirmation of my fs, I'm a big fan of Lana Del Rey and The Weeknd so the fact you channeled those songs I love it! 😍

Finally, I love every single words from my reading and every single photo from my moodboard. If you wanted me to feel all the passion, the intensity and the love coming from both, you succeeded. I think you're incredibly gifted and an amazing reader! 💯 👏

Thank you so much and great job!! ♥️♥️

Nichols Chavez is actually an Aries rising Virgo Leo moon Sun( no disrespect to his girlfriend but u could even marry this man lmao, or marry someone the resemblance hims. Anddd ofc I know why ur attached to him because of that Aries,Virgo, and Leo energy lol.) so that’s why I was picking up Nicholas and Vinnie Hacker. ANYWAYS I READ THE WHOLE THING AND I COULDN’T HELP BUT SMILE IN HAPPINESS AND GRATITUDE. This is my first ever gameeeee!! And last week I’ve started the blog 🤍 I am a quick learner, and really caught onto astrology very fast. AND YOUR VERY WELCOME! This made me so happy you don’t understand ! And thank you for sharing your time to listen to the songs I’ve listed. And to be honest I was also quite scared that it didn’t resonate with you because I didn’t receive feedback yet SO THANK U (I am literally still a baby, but I’m wise beyond my years. And I appreciate the praise that I have been receiving from others ❤️)

Feedback

His message resonated so deeply with me and it makes me tear up literally, not to mention the channeled song which warms my heart as I'm someone that always worry if he'd accept me with physical flaws etc. and that song speaks about finding their person perfect regardless, so it really touched my heart and spoke to me 😿 And i get what he means with being complicated and frustrating, he's currently in a toxic relationship and cannot get out of it, maybe bec of karma or idk but I totally get what he means and I'm longing for him as well (can't wait for the day we'll finally be together to come) And you know what else? I got in many PAC's that he's longing for me!

You're gifted, truly! 👏

Thank you so much I needed this comfort reading and confirmation 😭🤍

Omg, I hope he comes out of that relationship soon 🤍 yes, he'll accept you and he longs for you very much! I hope you two find your way to each other! All the best!

Thank you so much for the feedback!

Hi 🤍

i just finished reading the last part of your story and omg there’s so much to say

neteyam and reader being so similar yet so different that they hurt each other unconsciously. both of them wanting validation but differently neteyam wants to be recognised as a warrior and is frustrated because jake pull him off missions while reader wants to be recognised as a daughter and had this need to be held back from mission but jake doesn’t give either nor satisfied their need

Neytiri having a lifetime of grievance and has to bear the loss of tsu’tey while educating the last living piece of him. having a different relationship with reader that can be made into a correlation with Jake/Kiri particular relationship. the fact that even if she loves her life with jake thinking of what-if knowing she would have known perhaps less loss in a different lifetime if she made a different decision back then.

jake while being navi, eating navi, seeing Eywa, communicating with their culture and practice cannot let go of his human nature. despite all the time that has passed and knowing the guilt he held for the past and his first treason knows that it all roots from his human origin and cannot do anything about it. Loving reader differently but cannot let himself love properly because it would seems as if it was another thing he took from tsu’tey. Him crumbling under the pression and expectations while failing everyone he met. but he’s stil learning and despite all the grievance we should hold against him - can we really hate him for it ?

The parallèle between jake and reader fortheir first adventure toward unknown is so heartbreaking, bittersweet and really left a bad taste because after all she IS his daughter first and foremost, his firstborn, his first link to fatherhood and anchor his place in a intrinsic way.

You know the way this chapter ended make me think of a path for reader mirroring jake’s - i hope she finds a certain someone from an unknown clan the same way Jake found neytiri

i will finish this because it’s really long and i feel it will bore you but thank you for your dedication to the avatar universe and the take you take for every story you made - because there’s really no discontinuation between the tone of your stories and the film’s

Anyway all the love for your writing 🤍

(please i’m french be indulgent toward my english 😭)

honey, everything is so on point- i don't even know what to comment with each one bec you just laid out every word i have to say. heavy on the 'loving reader differently but cannot let himself love properly because it would seems as if it was another thing he took from tsu’tey' bec it hurts so bad. we can't rlly entirely hate jake for it

i love this message so much. rest assured that i am finishing this series (nd might even make more who knows teehee) thank you for this bby!

[annislittleshopofhorrors]

You know I'm getting more and more convinced CE and trollba in a rs is PR. First of all, before we got the official news from People that she was dating Chris, nobody knew who tf she was, just the 3/4 fans of WN which tbh I think they supported more the other lead character. Thanks to Chris (fvck you Chris for it didn't ask to meet her ugly ass) now even Marvel stans know her and just because she's “dating” their beloved CA. Do you think MiuMiu would invite her to their show if she was a nobody? I don't think so. Just look at the number of new projects she's getting in a span of 1year? well since she "dated" Chris. Now people (not you Anni 🤍 ik you're on the pr train) don't tell me they're real bec if it wasn't for CE her ass would probably be back to Portugal since her acting sorrynotsorry but really sucks and she's average looking to be the IT girl she wants to be, not to mention her past (awful) "career" with all that p*rn stuff. She will never be an Emily Blunt or an ADA but unfortunately thanks to Chris, she may get important movie roles in the future since he brought her to our notice....

Conclusion: THIS IS PR wake up people!

To be fair, she was invited to the Miu Miu event in Venice last year.
