#thank you for asking i love them 😌

[que-de-metal]

Sending you the ball back (seishin)

When I started shipping it if I did:

Day one — well day one of me playing DDC. Since I had a few years (late middle school + high school) where I wasn't following Touhou canon anymore and it came out during those times, I found out about them when I caught up to all the canon I missed circa 2015. But I had managed to not get a single thing about them spoiled somehow so the experience was the same.

My thoughts:

I love them so so much but you all know that. But specifically out of all the Touhou ships I feel like this is the one that's the most "contained?" Like they actually have a complete story arc that starts with DDC, then ISC, and "ends" with their conversation in Grimoire of Usami. If I wanted to explain most TH ships to someone who isn't in the fandom, I would have to pull out a diagram and hundreds of small details and worldbuilding bits to get it to make sense, but for these two there's a cohesive "trilogy" that contains a whole love story with onscreen character arcs and a satisfying "epilogue". Because of that I feel like this is a very special ship, it really stands out from the other pairings in that regard…

Things done in fanworks that annoy me:

I think people think I'm joking when I say I'm an unironic Seija apologist, but I genuinely dislike the framing of Shinmyoumaru as a helpless victim. I do think there's no real victim, that they mutually used each other awkwardly, but if it HAS to be a contest of who has it worse… What Seija did to Shin was: invent a bunch of overinflated bullshit to push Shin over the edge of joining a cause that she already half-agreed with without the lies. What Shin did to Seija was: weaponize her weakness to throw her under the bus as the main perpetrator AND not back down from that narrative EVEN AFTER a DEAD OR ALIVE MANHUNT was called on Seija. I feel like out of these two betrayals there is one that is way harder to forgive and it's not Seija's! They're both brilliant manipulators in totally different ways and it's one of the reasons they fit so well in the first place aaaaahhhhhhhhhh. I prefer fanworks that are more morally gray but if I'm to be compeltely honest I also want to see a more villainous Shin to compensate for all the fanworks that smooth her edges so much!

Things I look for in fanworks:

One of the big charm points of this ship for me is the Bonnie & Clyde dynamic, the partner in criming, so I can't get enough of fanworks of them working well together and being in sync. I like fanart where they look kind of cool, serious and competent, I find it very romantic in a way.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other:

Because of DDC being such a self-contained complete story like I said earlier there's not a lot of material of them interacting with the rest of the world… I love love love Sei/Shin/Reimu and Sei/Shin/Marisa because it has interesting power dynamics but it needs to be a throuple because as soon as you take Seija or Shinmyoumaru out I'm not interested.

Thought I like the idea of Shin going for other women during their time apart. Because I have a loving jealousy tropes too much problem. And I'm interested in Seija having to face insecurities. In that regard I'm into the Shin/Tenshi dynamic in AoCF. Because I think a Tenshi VS Seija rivalry could get very ugly (positive). But once again this is still with a SeiShin lens…

My prefered future/ending for them:

I want them to have big dramatic adventures. I do think they can change some of the unfair things in Gensokyo if they get over themselves first. It's also the kind of ship where I appreciate a tragic ending and a tragic death but I haven't found the fanwork that would hit this the right way for me yet :3

What is their favorite activity together:

Planning adventures. I picture Shin as the kind of person who can spend hours talking about projects, travels, shady businesses, things she wants to try someday. And she enjoys doing SOME of these things but coming up with the ideas counts as part of the fun. And paradoxically to the fact that her whole thing is playing with negatives, I feel like Seija would be a good Yes Man for those situations because the way she always twists and criticizes everything could be pretty stimulating to bounce ideas off. I'm getting frustrated because there's no english equivalent to "faire des plans sur la comète" and "refaire le monde" but I can totally see them spending a night on a high peak in Gensokyo, pointing to locations they want to travel the next day and bantering all night while mapping out the whole itinerary, then waking up in the morning and going the opposite direction of where they had planned.

A fic I’d like to write about them/A sentence from one already in my WIPs: 

(not a prose line cause this fic is in its rough 1st draft state a but a scene placeholder that I like) "Seija goes to sleep holding one of Shin's robes next to her head to make sure she dreams of her."

ship and characters asks 💌

[willowser]

you don't know how much comfort your dragon king bkg drabble has given me ever since you posted it!! i keep reading it i love it sm 🥹

as it turns out, the man bakugou is — a bit harder to handle.

he sleeps like a heathen; you once thought the dragon bakugou to be a bit lazy, with how often he tended to curl up in the fields of grass, warm under the sun, but now — it would seem his little human form needs significantly less rest.

almost up all hours of the day, and when he does finally lay down, he's everywhere. a mess of limbs: one thrown carelessly out to the side and the other bent at an angle you can't believe doesn't hurt his joints. his head stays tucked into you somehow, either buried in your neck or pressed against your ribs — or you'll wake to find him nose-to-nose with you. he still snores like a dragon, however.

you're also beginning to wonder if there is a bottom to the pit of his stomach. he ate much before, whole fields of things, but you expected that appetite to dwindle, at least a little, now that his stomach has decreased considerably in size. and in number ? you're not even sure how many stomachs a dragon has; that's not something that was mentioned in the fairytales.

it burns through him quickly, gives him more energy than he needs, and it doesn't ever seem to affect his weight much. already, he's huge and thick with muscle and eating as much as he does never dulls the severity of his cut abdomen. not that you're looking all that much.

— not that you have a choice not to, as he seems to have little-to-no understanding of —

the door to the bathhouse kicks open, with enough force that you already know who it is without ever turning to look. you try not to shriek when you see him, because he seems to like that in some evil, impish way.

you've been alone to wash so far, thankfully, as the inn you'd managed to find was small and far enough out from the nearest kingdom that the occupancy was low — enough for you and your little brute.

the man bakugou comes to stand in front of the bath, blinking and huffing against the steam. finding clothes for him was — nearly impossible, and so the trousers you'd found hanging on someone's line outside fit above his ankles, a bit too tight around his waist. instead of a shirt, you've wrapped him in a scratchy linen, swaddled him up like a baby to cover the small smattering of scales that decorate his body, almost like freckles from the sun, though they gleam just as bright and red as they ever have. no matter his form.

a horn has started to sprout, on the right side of his forehead, and you've done your best to cover that, too.

you have no idea how long this man thing will last. if it's permanent or if he even has control over it. the last thing you need is for him to switch back, somehow, while you're in the middle of feeding him, absolutely demolishing whatever tavern you're in and calling all of king todoroki's guards to attention.

bakugou grunts, almost sleepy, and tosses a fat, weighty sack onto the edge of the bath. it jingles a certain jingle that makes your heart stop.

"oh, allfather—" you move for the edge, awkwardly keeping one arm against your chest despite the fact that he's seen it all by now. when you peek inside and confirm your fears, you lob it back to him furiously, as if it were a steaming potato. "where do you keep getting this stuff?"

things have started to turn up, miraculously. shiny things — like coins and rings and gems. things he could not have simply found rolling around in the dirt.

"go put it back!" you hiss at him, and the tone of your voice makes his frown deepen. you never realized how pouty he was, when he was still a dragon.

you think he understands you, and you're pretty certain he just chooses not to listen; instead of doing what you've told him in the slightest, he simply dumps the coin-purse to the floor, and then lets his linen and stolen trousers cover it as he unceremoniously undresses.

the biggest issue that you would say the man bakugou poses is — his complete lack of understanding of personal space.

"bakugou!" your voice wavers, shocked again by his nakedness. as if you haven't seen it all by now. "no, you — get out!"

but he does the exact opposite, which is hop into the steaming water, ignoring the arm you hold out to keep him away as he saddles up beside you. skin against scales, pressing a nose into your hair to huff out his annoyance, to make it something you can feel.

if anyone were to walk in right now, they would — probably think the lie you'd told the innkeeper was true. that you are a simple traveler and this is your mute, over-sized husband.

regardless, you think this behavior isn't polite. especially in a public bathhouse.

"bakugou," you try again, turning your face away as you speak to the wood-paneled wall. "i'm taking a bath, you have to wait your turn."

all you receive in response is another huff against your ear and a low rumble of disagreement from his chest.

he has yet to speak back, and has only used inhuman sounds as his points of conversation. the only word you've ever heard him utter is oi, which he does when he really thinks he needs your attention. you're starting to wonder if he's named you that in his head. oi.

curiously, you turn back to him and the movement has him pulling his face from your hair, just enough that he can look down at you, too. watch you, with the red-rippled sea in his eyes.

they're — amazing, you will admit. just as bright and detailed as they always have been. fit for a fairytale told by the fire, veiled by the soft-ash of his lashes. he watches you through them, half-lidded, and you wonder if it's something other than fatigue that has them so heavy.

"do you know what i'm saying?" you ask quietly, voice lacking the firm heat you want it to. instead it's heavy, too, weighted by something soft and unfamiliar and frightening. "can you even understand me?"

bakugou doesn't respond, not with a huff or a rumble or ever a purr, like the one he let out on the night he lay over you by the lake. you've only heard it sparingly since then, oftentimes in his sleep when his face is pressed into you.

you try not to frown at his silence, try not to let it disappoint you because it shouldn't; he's a dragon afterall, and you're not sure what it matters. the little horn protruding from his forehead catches your eye and you reach up to touch it gently, watching him blink away the water that drips from your wrist — and then he's turning into you again, too close.

beneath the water, you feel his hands skate up your bare thighs, wrap around your waist until your chest is pulled flush against his. you feel his huff, again, against the damp skin of your neck but it's slower, lighter. not laced with his frustration. some unknown thing you feel guilty for liking.

you drop your hand to his hair, rushing full force into all the damned things you've thought about doing but have been too afraid to. he's soft between your fingers, and you trace your nails lightly against his scalp until he groans quietly; a new noise, one you don't know how to translate.

your fingers stop when they brush upon little spines that have grown at the base of his skull, that have started to trail down the center of his back.

suddenly, tangled up in the bath with him, you wonder how much time you have left.

bakugou huffs again into your skin, a little fiercer this time, and it's because of his light jostling that you realize how rigid you've gone. you try to relax so that he will, too, though you must not do a convincing job, because a sharp nip comes to your earlobe.

"ow!" you squeal, but he doesn't let you go far, not even as you try to jerk away from him. in fact, the harder you try the more his teeth show: into your cheek and the point of your jaw and then dangerously low on your neck.

it's not until you finally freeze that he stops, huffing again, with a warmth that burns more than the steaming water.

and then, very quietly, he grumbles, "shitty wife," into your collarbone, just before biting you again.

Just wanted to post a quick note saying today is the 5th anniversary of when I finally went to my first 5SOS show. Every year I think about how wildly different my fandom experience would've been if I'd been able to attend previous tours, how everything aligned just right for me to finally go to MYT, how I almost talked myself out of attending the night before, how completely unrecognizable my life would be today if I hadn't gone. I probably wouldn't have a blog to post this to. You wouldn't know me, I wouldn't know you. I never would've met so many of my friends. I wouldn't have ever met my best friend, the best friend I've ever known. I never would've rediscovered my love for writing. I genuinely don't know how I would be spending my days and I wonder if they would still be filled with the kind of joy I have found here in this community.

It feels fitting that this reflective day coincides with the last show of this tour, a tour that has been powered by appreciation for the bond we share and celebration of the time we've all spent together. Keeping up with this tour has been impossibly fun (and sometimes just plain impossible) and I can't think of a better way to have spent the past three months. I'm happy to have experienced it - and the past 5 years - with this band and with all of you. Thank you to this band, to my friends, to anyone who's ever interacted with me here and most of all, to Past Me for buying those tickets all those years ago. I wouldn't have a place to call home without you. 💙

So you're saying it still is tasty! Don't you worry, I'll cook up something delicious soon >:3

[rosaacicularis]

You’re the one behind to cradle love in open palms?It’s genuinely my favorite fic ever, I’ve read it so many times by now!! I have a question for you, after the two got together what do you think happened between Sahara & ConCorp? Did they end up collabing? Did the companies eventually merge? Maybe they sponsored the wedding down the line LMAO

i sure am!! i’m glad to hear you enjoyed the fic and that it’s quality has kept up through rereads!! <3<3

concorp ends up buying sahara as a subset of their own company. so sahara gets the funding and marketing they needed to thrive and concorp gets a cut of the profit. it kinda worked out for everyone 😌😌

and they actually had a small wedding, just with close friends and family and such. they’re so used to consistently being in the public eye that they wanted a break for that on their special day <3 (it was still absolutely extravagant) (and mumbo taught some of his best man speech to professor beak)

[tennessoui]

This is a blast from the past but remember The Band AU? I was rereading it — it's still amazing, btw — and I was bitten by the writing bug again so, uh, here's another song for you? 😅 It's pop-punk and also quite possibly the stupidest thing I have ever written but it's meant to be very tongue-in-cheek so hopefully it works.

(I imagine Obi-Wan cringes every time hears this song because jfc defibrillators don't work that way.)

Rehabilitation

[Verse 1:]

Hello 911

What's my emergency?

I suffer from a

Coitus deficiency

You see I fear that

My prognosis is dire

If I cannot get

5 cc of desire

[Pre-Chorus:] (Spoken)

Code Blue, Code Blue

Gonadal arrest one-two

[Chorus:]

Doctor, help

I need your

Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation

Nurse, please, I

Must have more

Penile rehabilitation

Oh oh oh!

[Verse 2:]

Can't you see I have

Amorous atrophy

I can pay in kind

If it's a costly fee

A deep injection

That is what I require

The only cure for

Pathologic desire

[Pre-Chorus:]

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]

Come write me a prescription

Oral administration

Something for my—

{flatline beep}

Clear!

{defibrillator noise}

{loud gasp}

[Chorus ×2]

(This is definitely the single which has the "homage" to Obi-Wan's slutty nurse Halloween candid on the cover.)

lol omg I love this so so much I can also absolutely imagine anakin penning this song in his room at like 3am because he woke up from a very inappropriate dream about a certain medical student

and he tells the rest of the band that he wrote a new song and he thinks it’s gonna be really big just huge it’s so catchy he googled three things and then decided to take a creative license with the medical stuff and also um no Ahsoka you can’t read it um no here is just the instrumental part for you we will save the lyrics for when you’re in an environment too loud for you to actually hear the words also um completely unrelated but does anyone know where we can get a slutty nurse costume? and a redhead. for the single cover art.

Hello! Do you have any butterfly-themed stickers? :3c

BOY DO I!!!!!

I have a #butterflies tag which is, admittedly, woefully underpopulated, but some of my favorites that I've already posted are this one, this one, and this one!

So I'm sure I have a Ton of sheets but since I only have my mods and minis on hand, let's take a look there!

First on the docket: Sandylion!

As you can see, Sandylion has some good variety in terms of butterfly styles. I'm personally a fan of the one on the bottom left (how easily I succumb to anything small and sparkly...) but all of them are absolutely whimsical imo.

Next up: Hambly!

If they look a bit scuffed it's because they're some of the stickers I've had the longest! A lot of these are, actually. Butterfly stickers are like the ogs to me :P

Of course: Mrs. Grossman's!

Mrs. Grossman's Sticker Club coming in clutch XD I have a Lot of Mrs. Grossman's butterfly stickers. All of them are gorgeous, too!

Finally... The mysteries 👀

No idea where these guys are from! They're very near and dear to my heart though, especially the pastel ones :]

I have a handful more, of course, but alas. Image limit ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. As always these (+some extras) have been added to my drafts and will be added to the queue in the future! So keep an eye out :3

People: OH MY GOD THEY HATE EACH OTHER THEY WILL NEVER GET TOGETHER AGAIN THIS IS A GOODBYE

Like come on, be fucking for real.

hiii!! I was wondering if you had any head cannons about adam and belle when they get in a serious fight ?? may seem silly lol

i’m not gonna lie i’m so bad at thinking about actual conflict dialogue between them. i fully know that they do argue, because they’re both so stubborn, and they’re a married couple and that’s just part of it, but usually when i imagine their arguments, it’s like a silent film sjdksj. but here are some thoughts i have about it!!

the main thing that they argue about is, ironically, lack of communication skills. adam has quite literally never shared his deep feelings with anyone, even himself in many ways, so suddenly having a partner who is a million times more emotionally stable is quite a change! and it’s difficult at first, and at least for a little while. especially since belle is sooo inquisitive, and so enamored with him, she always wants to dig deeper into his mind! but that kind of insistence just shuts him off. and, in the early days, that’s gonna result in him getting angry/defensive and biting back at bit

but belle is, of course, persistent with him. so they have their argument about stubbornness and just not quite being in sync about emotions, and then they have their time to cool off, and then they come together later and there’s quiet but sincere apologies. on both ends! adam is always working on his temper, he understands that she’s just trying to help, he just can’t articulate himself yet. and belle very much needs to learn patience. he’s starting at level zero in vulnerability, it’s gonna take some practice!! she just gets frustrated when she can’t immediately solve a puzzle. but adam is her favorite puzzle, so she’ll keep at it!! <3

over the years though, adam Does get better about sharing his feelings with her. i think i have a silly line in one of my fics set further down the road and it’s something like “after twelve years of marriage, adam was almost certain that belle did want to hear about his problems.” afjskdj. like yeah my guy that’s your wife of twelve years. you traumatized goober. anyway my point is the vulnerability and communication DOES improve! but it absolutely takes time and he’ll still never be as free with his feelings/thoughts as belle is. he’ll always be the black cat of the relationship, lmao. so those bickering matches won’t ever truly cease, but they get less intense.

another thing they very occasionally argue about is work. this is rare because they, in general, do different things. belle, as queen, focuses a lot more on human relations, social structures, the people themselves. i’ve always said that working on improving the education system is her number one priority. so she’s always in that line of committees, community action, local infrastructure. that kind of stuff. adam, as king, does more of the overarching government type of crap. bigger political decisions, taxes, business with allied kingdoms. gosh, he hates it lmao. but he just hates working in general so that’s not gonna change. my point HERE is that, while their lines of work don’t regularly cross, every now and then they do have to collaborate, and i think they butt heads when this happens because they work very differently. (adam is more organized and detail-oriented, whereas belle is. more loosey goosey and doesn’t always get things done on time. and belle says “oh you mean on Adam Time🙄” and he’s like “no i mean ON TIME!!”) but in general their work is kind of separate, which is nice! they have different things to talk about at the end of the day <3

(i can’t help but note though that when there are actual huge big political decisions to make, adam absolutely includes belle. like he intentionally made sure that they were coronated together, and that they’re equals on the throne. and politically speaking they generally agree about those kinds of big decisions, or at least they come to a good agreement after debating each other for a bit. but anyway just had to add that.)

another thing they definitely argue about is founded in adam’s worries about belle. i go into more detail about this here, but when belle is pregnant, adam gets overprotective, to the point of being very annoying to belle. so they have lots of very little arguments about him needing to CALM DOWN and her needing to BE CAREFUL and it just goes back and forth. they also obviously bicker while raising their children, but again it’s nothing more than normal. i think the hardest arguments are when they have their first child, and adam is just so uncertain about how to care for her, and belle sometimes offers too much help, to the point where adam gets insecure and thinks that She Thinks that he’s doing everything wrong. so he gets all defensive again and blah. but they work it out. that’s in the same period of time as him not being able to communicate his feelings well so it’s just all a lot.

the first couple years of their marriage are just insane because not only are they learning how to be a partnership, but they’re also learning how to be king and queen, and not before too long, they’re learning how to be parents. and they’re a great team! but they are different and have such different life experiences that it, of course, will inevitably lead to heads butting and unintentional words. but they’re always just as easily able to apologize and forgive and carry on. it’s difficult to navigate but they love each other so endlessly that it’s never truly hard. even when adam feels at his worst, or when belle feels so out of her depths, they know that they CAN always rely on the other. so while things may be intense in the moment, there’s always love there, and things always get figured out together 💖

[ruushes]

for the bg3 asks: 1, 18, and 23

1. They go by Lux (short for the virtue name Luxury), rogue assassin, Mephistopheles tiefling, they/them, non-durge

I chose the urchin background so they’re a Baldurian, they were born into a wealthy Bloomridge merchant family to two human parents who were not expecting a tiefling and weren’t overjoyed with that development. I’m thinking their parents split over the decision to raise them and they and their father were cut off from the family, falling into poverty, landing in and growing up around the Twin Songs district of the Outer City

18. They’re 110% invested in getting Wyll out of his pact. They empathize a lot with the situation of being unwillingly beholden to and compelled to work for someone; they got in deep with the thieves guild in Baldur's Gate when they were younger and regret it

23. Very wary and distrustful of the dream visitor at first, but by the time Vlaakith commands you to kill them they’ve grown to, if not exactly trust, at least feel that they Need the guardian and share a common interest

That the guardian encourages them to use the tadpoles makes them extremely suspicious but they still do it bc outside a balanced videogame setting they’d be pretty outclassed by everyone else and would again feel they Need to use the powers to matter. So kind of an uneasy relationship where they very much want to trust the guardian and are slowly giving in more due to the strength of that desire than any good evidence that the guardian is trustworthy 

[willowser]

AHHHHH ideas for dragon bakugo are endlessss, but heres a short one, the difference in the experience of the five senses seems like a good one, as a dragon hes got rough scales and a dull sense of touch so its all very new to him in his human form where he can feel everything with soft flesh, OH AND ANOTHER THING!! His sense of smell, sight and hearing is probably much better than yours. And it’s hell for him to know all the small things you seem too dumb to notice, like, how do you not know that fruit you’re about to pick off a tree is rotten!!! Don’t eat it!!!!! But he doesn’t know how to tell you so he grabs your wrist instead away from the tree totally suddenly, picking you a different fruit and shoving it towards you. You’re so confused and he’s just annoyed because how could you not know. I loveeee sensory imagery and language and I feel like the differences in the experience if the five senses is such an interesting thing for bakugo and reader

OOOOHHH interesting !!! sensory imagery, aww 🥺 did not consider !!!

i definitely think the touch thing is so !!!!! to him ! because he can feel when you lean against him, whereas he couldn't before because of his thick scales; exactly !!!! that's what i was thinking, too !!!

but i didn't consider his sense of smell, either !!! ooohh, you know what...i could actually use this where i'm editing rn sjghjdjska THANK YOU LOL you've just saved them, while in search of water 😌✨️ also i can definitely see reader being so confused LOL like..why won't you met me eat this apple, damn it !!! ooooh, and his sense of taste ??? do we think he likes human food more ? or is too used to eating like. deer. and stuff LOL he's half human, so i like to think he gets a good soup for the first time and is like 🥴🥴🥴 especially bc canon bakugou likes good food too 🤔🤔 yeah, let's say that 😌 he's floored by human food 😌

this gives me so much to think about, thank you !!! i've never considered the sense before, you've just opened my eyes 😌✨️✨️ kissing you kissing you !!! 🩷✨️

Have you ever got into FMA? If so, what's your fav ship from the series, and if not, take a look at the characters and tell me who you think would be a good match!

OHH I LOVE FMA!! my fav ship is royed - I've been shipping them for over a decade hehe ☺️ their snippy dynamic and the begrudging respect that becomes genuine respect as the series goes on is everything to me!

Hey Chiba,

I was listening to this song ( https://youtu.be/H5At3vR6FZk?si=ApEbYgseZGUVU1eg ), and it totally made me think of my bbg, Vesper

Aww Vesper coded song recommendations! I've actually never heard this one before but it definitely gives me the same kind of feelings I get from this song

[bi-and-bewildered]

hi, just wondering if it's ok to reupload your gifs to other platforms with links to the original post? or how would u prefer to be credited? it's ok if not, totally understandable!

have a nice day anyhow! thank u for doing God's work

that’s totally okay! i’m really lax about people using my gifs, so as long as you don’t reupload like exactly what I post and then say they’re yours, i have no problem. you can credit me if you want!

my only rule is that knowing that i don’t care, people don’t use me as an excuse to repost other peoples gifs when they ask you not to! different creators have different rules and i ask that you respect other people’s preferences for their content if mine aren’t the same!

[pomefioredove]

the overblots (+ rook + lillia? if thats okay) reactions to you calling them your husband…………..

saw the words lilia and husband in the same ask and got so excited I blacked out

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ calling them your husband

type of post: headcanons characters: riddle, leona, azul, jamil, vil, rook, idia, malleus, lilia additional info: romantic, reader is gender neutral, reader is yuu, established relationship

Riddle "we're not married" Rosehearts, everyone. and he says it so matter-of-factly too! like, of course, you know that. you were just trying to be sweet and romantic. he figures it out eventually, though (the realization hits him like a truck two hours later, and he apologizes with roses and a slice of tart. Ace makes fun of him for weeks)

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Leona is so smug about it actually. unlike Riddle, he's socially aware enough to know that you don't mean it literally. he's like, "damn right I am" and will defo make you say it again. especially in front of the other housewardens. and his family, and random people on the street (he likes it)

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

I think Azul would try to actually marry you after that. he is reading way too much into it. I mean, you basically just said you love him and belong to each other in the most intimate and loving way and want to be together forever!!!! (he's already thinking about your wedding rings)

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

"your boyfriend 😑" THANKS JAMIL. it's not that he doesn't understand what you mean, it's just that he's having NONE of that. thinking about the future scares him he's just a realist!!! and then he fucks up and calls you his spouse without thinking one time... you never let him forget it

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Vil likes it. he's just sitting there all smug like "😌 yes that's me" definitely also calls you his spouse when you're alone. to him, it's just a symbol of your commitment and a promise of a loving future together. very cute very sweet 10/10

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Rook lights up like a kid on Christmas morning the first time you say it. it's just so!!!! he thinks about it for the rest of the week, and absolutely starts referring to you as his spouse. will sign all of his love notes with "your husband" from then on

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Idia is going THROUGH it. tells you you're being cringe while his face and hair are cherry red (which means he likes it!) definitely going to think about it while in bed staring at the ceiling for months. Ortho overhears and starts calling you his sibling-in-law :)

Malleus. MALLEUS. someone save this poor man. he's unwell. pacing around his room all night, trying to figure out what you meant by that. are you trying to tell him you want him to propose?? you want to marry him?? right now right this second-

you'll have to tell him you meant it as a term of endearment, which both relaxes and disappoints him (say it again, please please pl-)

Lilia doesn't really have a reaction. not on the surface, anyway. he just goes on with the conversation (he is fighting demons in his head rn). he decides he likes it, though, and he'll introduce you to everyone as his spouse from then on
