Can you show me an Mlp au?

i'm just gonna take this as an excuse talk about my mlp au destinyswap

during the mane six simultaneous cutie mark event and twilight sparkle's magic meltdown, she sees into the future and involuntarily casts starswirl's spell (the one from magical mystery cure that switches everyone's destinies)

this spell ripples across equestria and changes the mane 6's destinies the same moment they receive them so it goes unnoticed. the mane 6 all settle into their new lives except for twilight, who always has a sense that she's forgotten something important. she can just barely recall starswirl's spell like a fading dream and tries to look for any clues she can about it, resulting in her being even more reclusive than normal and celestia sending her to ponyville before the events of the pilot.

when she meets the other mane 6, the "bad feeling" gets really, really bad, and she becomes unsettled and paranoid, especially around the mane 6, and mostly stays shut in her library. her encounters with the mane 6 do give her a feeling about what to research, though... she combs her collection for anything having to do with cutie marks and pony destinies.

everyone else seems to have settled into their new roles pretty well, though?

fluttershy is still very shy, but she's very good with kids, and lives with the cakes as pound and pumpkin's nurse/babysitter but takes other jobs as well. all the foals in ponyville adore her, and she is more comfortable being herself around young ponies than adults, who are scary.

applejack lives in manehattan with her aunt and uncle orange as a popular fashion who gives out free blankets and coats for charities, but frequently visits ponyville to check on her family. she can use her hooves to sense gemstones in the ground, and integrates them into her designs.

rarity's magic developed very late, and when it did, it took a while for ponies to realize that instead of unicorn magic, she had pegasus magic. she had to train herself to use her horn to control her magic, but once she did, she joined the ponyville weather team. she is fanciful and loves making patterns in the sky - ponyville always praises rarity for a particularly striking sunset or when cloudgazing is especially entertaining.

the pie family had worked with the apple family for a while, so when pinkie pie discovered her talent for baking, she moved to ponyville and was hired on by the apples to fill applejack's role, and uses the apples produced by the farm to make lovely homemade treats! the apple family stand always has freshly-baked confections now, and a friendly but slightly intimidating pink workhorse running about with big mac and apple bloom.

rainbow dash lives on the edge of town in a cottage. she is a pegasus, but nopony has ever seen her fly since crash-landing in the forest during a race. she is still capable of flight, although weakened, but prefers to keep her hooves on the ground - that's where the animals that stayed with her and helped her after her crash are, anyway. she is timid and particularly afraid of confrontation, but ponyville regards her as their best veterinarian and animal expert.

and twilight sparkle... she's the princess's student from canterlot. the new unicorn that never leaves her library. her assistant, spike the dragon, stays near the door and gives you your books from the window. if you see twilight out and about on a quick errand or grocery run, don't approach her... she's timid and aggressive, like a wild animal, and will glare at you while she trots in the opposite direction.

sometimes the princess herself comes to visit the library. she's the only one allowed inside.

[season-77]

Welcome to the second edition of Anti-Tux-Tuesday!

Since last week we discussed outfits we'd rather never see again, this week we’ll focus on those that deserve to be remembered forever.

As always, we’ll have both movie costumes and personal outfits. Shall we get started?

The black emo-style turtleneck from season 7 (@librawritesstuff reminded me of it today), paired with that tragic lover’s expression, is just walking sex appeal — or in this case, even sitting!

2. Linen shirt of zen – the light blue shirt (even a bit wrinkled, after all, it’s linen) combined with those auburn curls is simply a very successful composition.

3. The well-known and much-loved blue suit of glow, styled two ways: with a white shirt and a dark shirt. I love both, but I prefer the one with the snug navy shirt of smugness.

4. The check blue coat of confection – impeccable classic style, with a bonus moustache.

5. Another, and I promise the last coat in this line-up, I don’t know what it is about it, but Evans looked fantastic in it.

6. The copper jumper – I know, it might be a controversial choice, but the jumper matched the hair colour perfectly, and Evans just looked adorable.

7. It may just be a simple t-shirt, but you have to admit that Evans has mastered the art of wearing black and white t-shirts to perfection.

8. Handsome boy-next-door look, in jeans and a checked shirt, especially when it's our boy.

9. And the big winner of today’s ranking (as if it wasn’t obvious) – the Boiler Suit of Lust. Is any further comment even necessary…

I’m aware that I’ve probably missed loads of outfits, so please do share your suggestions.

★ Cuddles with a ninja

As much as this is a Kiriko-centric blog, I am aboslutely in shambles over Genji content. I love him to death<3 :3 & Here's a male reader insert, as I feel that isn't enough of it in the world.

Whenever Genji got back home from picking you up some sweets from the local bakery, as directed by you, he couldn't help but lovingly sigh at the sight of his friend slumped over the couch. He knew that time'll tell that you'd've been dead asleep, if it wasn't for the smell of the food in the air. Genji was trained enough in the arts to not make any noises where he steps, y'know. He'd then close the door behind him, and settle down close to you.

He really couldn't help but to also shake his head, as you could hear him tut at you for immediately waking up to just grab at the bag in his hand. He cherished how you were comfortable with even being remotely close to him, considering with what he's gone through, done, and said over all of these years. Genji found a certain beauty in your action, how the sugar coated your lips as you went to snack on the pasteries and other confections he's brought you. If he could make you feel this much joy by just bringing you that, he would've spent his whole wallet on you—just to see how those pupils dilate with excitement all over again, a smile creeping up on the handsome contours of your face.

... But, Genji knew that he was very into the person in front of him. It wasn't before long that you were done with eating everything, and the ninja had to snap back into reality to respond to your question. He didn't even hear you, he only just saw your lips move—the lips of which you glossed your lip over, trying to get the final feelings in of the sweets. How he so badly wants to be the one to taste the glaze off of them; the thought flustering him further.

"Repeat, please?" His tone was softspoken, as he always was with you. Never harsh. He could never treat the man of his life like that.

As you repeated your questioning, mumbling due to your lethargy, you asked him about spending the night together—considering the two of you have done it before countless times, and even if this wasn't a planned sleepover, it already was too late for him to get back to his place. Genji didn't have to think, it was natural for him to nod along to it.

You then went to lay on him a tad bit better, adjusting yourself more on the sofa so that you could feel his touch, and still feel the plushness of the sofa beneath you. You and Genji have cuddled numerous times before, but with his current mindset now and this thoughts, he was more than just a flustered mess. He was one to be calm and collected, learning from his past mistakes—either in a way that he has mellowed out over the years, getting too burnt out to feel anger, or, instead, he would vent out those emotions in a more methodical, healthy way. The tide of battle was something he knew could persuade his thinking, as he tried his best to keep his willpower in check. With seeing how you positioned the back of your head against his chest, tilting it to the side, he would laugh.

"I believe this boy here will be the death of me." Genji would say, rather as a comment to himself, as he then wrapped his arms around your tired body better. With how he then scooted up more on the armrest, you were laying on top of his form, arms secure around your torso, with you then turned around, so that your face was met with the softness of his hoodie. You idly tugged at the collar, trying to busy your hands with something.

"What?" Genji would question, embarrassed how he could sound so blunt at times; not trying to come off as accidentally arrogant with his straightforward tone. "I think you have enough attention for now. I would prefer to keep my hoodie; go find a blanket."

With more playful instances of banter and bickering, Genji had to jokingly scowl, as he undid his hoodie, and gave it to you to wear. This was one of the many scenarios of which you had to fight tooth and nail (whine) to get what you wanted from him. You were glad he was fun-loving and really didn't care, since you understood the seriousness of his occupation—yet, always found time to joke around with a guy like you.

Yogurt-Covered Pretzels, Other Coated Confections Recalled For Salmonella

(Source – AARP)

Several varieties of yogurt-covered pretzels and other confection-coated snacks have been recalled due to potential salmonella contamination, prompting concerns over public health safety. The recall, initiated by Palmer Candy Co. following notification from its liquid-coating supplier regarding possible contamination, was announced by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Although no illnesses have been reported thus far in connection with the recall, the potential risks associated with salmonella necessitate immediate action.

The affected products, distributed nationwide through prominent retailers such as Walmart, Target, Dollar General, and Hy-Vee, include various brands such as Casey’s, Favorite Day Bakery, Freshness Guaranteed, Kwik Trip Inc., Palmer, Snackin’ With The Crew, Sconza Chocolates, Sunny Select, Sweet Smiles, and Urge. This extensive recall encompasses over 25 products, ranging from caramel pretzel swirls to white fudge mini cookies, zebra fudge cookies, and assorted snack blends featuring pretzels, chocolate, and other candies.

The commitment to ensuring public safety

Consumers are urged to check for “best by” dates ranging from December 2024 to April 2025, as listed in the FDA’s announcement, to identify potentially contaminated items. While no illnesses have been reported thus far, production of the implicated products has been halted as the FDA and Palmer Candy Co. conduct a thorough investigation to identify the source of the contamination. The swift action taken underscores the commitment to ensuring public safety and mitigating potential health risks.

Salmonellosis, the infection caused by the salmonella bacteria, presents with symptoms including diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps. In severe cases, the infection can progress beyond the intestines to affect other bodily systems, leading to complications such as urinary, bloodstream, bone, joint, spinal fluid, or brain infections. Symptoms typically manifest within six hours to six days after infection and can persist for up to seven days. However, in certain instances, symptoms may arise weeks after exposure or linger for an extended period, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the infection.

Vigilance and cooperation among manufacturers

While most individuals recover from salmonellosis without requiring antibiotics, treatment is recommended for those experiencing severe symptoms. Vulnerable populations, including adults over 65 years old (or over 50 with underlying health conditions such as heart disease), infants, and individuals with compromised immune systems, are particularly susceptible and are advised to seek medical attention promptly. Heightened vigilance and adherence to preventive measures are essential to safeguarding public health and minimizing the spread of salmonella-related illnesses.

Consumers who have purchased the recalled products are advised to return them to the point of purchase for a full refund. Concerned individuals may also contact Palmer Candy Co. directly at 800-831-0828 for further assistance or inquiries. By promptly addressing potential risks and prioritizing consumer safety, stakeholders aim to uphold rigorous standards of quality assurance and preserve public trust in the food supply chain. Vigilance and cooperation among manufacturers, regulatory agencies, and consumers are paramount in mitigating health hazards and ensuring the well-being of communities nationwide.

Wholesale Candy & Chocolate Supplier, Canada

Candy, these small sugar-packed punches of happiness, possess the ability to turn your world upside down. They can be made out of everything, from fruits, vegetables, and nuts to ginger and cloves; you name it. There’s not one single person in this world, from small children to old adults, who can resist candy.

Candy has so many variations in terms of shape, taste, ingredients, and color that you can use candies to celebrate almost every occasion on this planet. There are specially made candies for Valentine’s Day, birthdays, anniversaries, and college parties, and they even go with "thank you" and "get well soon" notes. Whether you want to send a gift or just lay back on your couch and enjoy your Sunday movie, candies can be the catalyst for happiness whenever and wherever you want.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF CANDIES AVAILABLE?

With a mouth-watering introduction up there, you are compelled to learn more about such candies. The divine rewards of eating candies cannot be experienced with one flavor or one candy alone; it is a must to try at least a handful of them over and over. Here in this section, we bring to you the various types of candies available out there. Be sure to try all of them if you want your tastebuds to experience heaven on Earth.

Caramels

Caramel candies, or simply caramels, more commonly known as "toffees", are chewy candies with a soft core. These candies are made by boiling sugar along with butter, cream, and extracts of various flavors, like vanilla. The mixture is boiled until the sugar melts and the other ingredients are held together. Caramel candies owe their external beauty to the lustrous and smooth texture of their surface when cooled.Chocolate candies

These confections are made by adding chocolate to candy. The aroma and taste of these candies are exquisite, and they graciously light up your mouth as soon as you put them in them. Chocolate is so versatile that it can be used as the principal ingredient as well as a coating on top of other candies.

Gummy candies

Gummy candies are unique combinations of chewy, jelly-like, gelatine candies along with sweeteners. The flexible shape of a gum candy allows it to be served in any shape possible. We have all seen gum candies served as teddy bears, airplanes, long strips, or in the shapes of other animals.Hard candies 

These are sugar confectionery served in a hard, glassy state. These candies are not chewed but sucked, keeping our mouths full of their sweet syrup for longer durations. These candies are also served in various shapes with beautiful textures and colors. They have a bad reputation for leaving your tongue and teeth colored, which is also their best feature. Lollipops are one of the most popular and widely used hard candies. The best part about hard candies is that they can be made out of caramel and other candies; they are the best of both worlds.Liquorice 

These candies are semi-soft and are colored black or red. They taste like cherries, strawberries, or licorice. These candies not only allow you to relish their sweetness but also provide additional health benefits like easier digestion, lower cholesterol, and relief for the respiratory system. However, excess consumption of this candy can lead to troubles related to the heart since it reduces the concentration of certain electrolytes.Chewing gums 

Chewing gum is the most popular and most usable type of candy. They not only provide a sweet and juicy sensation but also exercise your jaw, make you alert, and help improve your memory. Chewing gums are soft candies that are meant to be chewed for prolonged periods; they must not be swallowed as they stick to any substance when wet and solidify after drying up. Chewing gums are used by everyone, from small children to extreme athletes; this demonstrates the versatility and usefulness of a gum.

There are tens and hundreds of other varieties of candy; if you wish to check out more candies and even buy some of the best ones in bulk, do check out candyville.com. They are one of the best wholesale candy suppliers in Canada.

WHY IS SHOPPING FOR CANDY ONLINE BETTER THAN WALKING INTO STORES?

With a mouth-watering intro and a description of candies that make your tummy rumble, we’re sure that you are now craving to experience the divine sensations of chewing candy. But before you go out and buy a pocketful of candies for yourself, you must understand that shopping for candies online is much better.

Yes, we know you love the aroma of the candy store, and the sight of so many candies waiting to light up your mouth makes your brain go into a frenzy. But you can never be sure that the candies stored in front of you are fit to consume and have been stored safely, away from all the germs and touches of other shoppers. Candy is delightful yet sensitive; their coatings are sticky, thereby allowing dust to latch onto them unless washed away. Shopping online eliminates all of these problems and provides you with candy in its purest form.

Quality

Candy distributors do not have to worry about storing their candies in an attractive way; their job is to store the candy in the safest of ways and transport it in a sealed package. Their quality storage and packing preserve the deliciousness of your candies so that when you eat them, they’re as good as new.Freshness 

Candy in distribution centers is stored in a safe pack. Their expiry dates are carefully noted, and two or more packets of candy with different expiry dates or tastes are never mixed. This is one factor that candy stores fail to take care of. Candy contains sensitive ingredients; they’re heavenly when fresh but equally disastrous when stale.Segregation 

As mentioned previously, candies are segregated on the basis of various properties like taste, ingredients, color, and expiration date. If two candies with contradicting properties are mixed, they both get ruined. This factor is taken care of by online distributors.It’s easy to look for your specific needs

When you’re in a candy store, searching for your favorite candy can be difficult at times, given the large crowds that are present and the similarities among so many of the candies. With online shopping, you are provided with accurate images and names of every candy, thereby making it easier to find the one you’ve been looking for.Explore new varieties 

Since you don’t have to worry about other people yelling at you for taking too long, you can peacefully check out all of the other candies available and order the ones you love.

Although online shopping feels reliable after reading this section, there could be rare cases where the online distributor needs to store and pack the candies up to the prescribed level of hygiene. To keep such problems at bay, you must buy from one of the most trusted and verified candy distributors. We can vouch for Candy Ville; they are trusted candy distributors in Canada and also have outlets in other countries.

DO CANDIES HAVE HEALTH BENEFITS?

When we hear the word "candy", apart from their colorful shapes, we are also reminded of the dentist and cavities. Candy can cause cavities and other dental problems if and only if it is used beyond its safety limit and the mouth isn’t taken care of after eating.

While not all candies might have some really helpful health benefits, candies like licorice and chocolate candies possess a variety of health benefits. We discussed the benefits of licorice candy in a recent section; now we shall look at the benefits of chocolate candy.Helps the immune system 

Chocolate candies contain chemicals called flavonols; these same chemicals are also present in fruits and vegetables. This helps our immune system maintain a balance among hormones when disrupted by disease-causing bacteria.Helps control diabetes 

Natural chocolate, without sweeteners, contains chemicals that improve our body cells’ response to insulin, thereby keeping the risk of diabetes under control.Enhances brain function

The flavonols present in chocolate also improve the blood flow to our brain, thereby improving our awareness, memory, and reflexes.Reduces stress 

We all know this because chocolate-based products are our go-to food items when under stress. Chocolate reduces the excessive stress we experience by influencing the concentration of stress-related hormones.

Christmas Cookies {Javier Peña x GN!Reader}

Rating: Everyone

Warnings: Food

Writer Wednesday 12/15/21 @autumnleaves1991-blog​ & @clydesducktape​

Anyone who knows Javier Peña would never expect him to be haunting the kitchen. They would figure that he would walk in the door, grumble about the heavy scent of gingerbread that is wafting through the house and either pull out his cigarettes or move over to the the liquor cart that is set up in the corner for easy access. 

He spent very little time in his own kitchen after all. It was easier and less of a hassle to go to one of the little restaurants that makes some of the best food you have ever put in your mouth and snag some arepas or empanadas to eat in the car whenever he had a spare moment. Often times eaten at his desk as he pours over files with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth and a frown on his handsome face. 

So you find it funny that he is crowding you. Nose up in the air like a bloodhound and sticky fingers reaching around you to scoop up a ball of raw dough out of the bowl to shove in his mouth like a naughty child before you can pop his hand. 

“Javi!” 

“What?” He is unrepentant, even with your back turned you can hear the grin on his face. One that rare shines through with everything that is happening every day when he leaves this apartment. “Have to check it.” 

“For what?” 

“Make sure you know what you’re doing.” He lets out a quiet oof when you elbow him in the ribs but that doesn’t stop that finger from swiping through the the icing and snagging another glob of confection to gobble down. 

“What’s with the cookies?” There are rows of them, already iced or waiting to be iced or cooling on a rack as they are straight from the oven. 

“It’s almost Christmas.” 

“And?” Javier’s idea of Christmas was either working at the silent Embassy, drinking the shitty coffee that was available there because no one was open or staying here. Having brought home a stack of files to study or maybe tapes to listen to. He’d call his dad and spend 10-20 minutes talking to him, but with long distances charges that were monitored for personal use, he didn't talk for long. 

“You can’t have Christmas without cookies.” He grunts, obviously disagreeing with you but for once deciding that he would be tactful. 

“Did I have all this shit?” That question makes you laugh. Turning to him, you offer up a finger that is coated in frosting and it’s almost comical how quickly that man’s mouth opens and he takes the sugary offering. Javier Peña has a secret sweet tooth. 

“No.” You shake your head and grin up at him. “You most certainly did not have anything to make cookies in your house.” 

His hands skim your waist and slide behind you. You aren’t an idiot, you know he is going for a cookie. They are taunting him and you see his eyes shift behind you as he assess how to best sneak on by you. Or it might just be a case of smash and grab. 

“You wanna taste test for me?” You offer, making those dark eyes light up with almost boyish delight at the prospect of getting cookies. It makes you want to laugh, but it also makes you want to smother him with kisses. 

“Do we have milk?” You snort at that. He had milk in fridge that had expired two months ago when you got here. But you can’t have cookies without milk. That had to be a crime. 

“Yeah, I got milk.” You grin when his own grin spread across his face. 

“Well? What are we waiting for?” He demands. “Lets eat some cookies.”

Rating: Teen and up

Summary: Kurt panics. And then he doesn’t.

This is part of my Mormon!Klaine universe. It takes place directly after Licked Cupcake and before The Luckiest.

My Mormon!Klaine Masterpost. (More recent posts are in bold.)

Thanks @kriskubed!

I picture the presenter as Bryan Ryan, but German (or maybe Austrian) and LDS. Also, I didn’t have a native German speaker check my grammar—feel free to if you are one.

––––

“Tada! I present to you the Kit Kat. You see a mere candy bar. But this lowly confection can also be used to serve God's Kingdom. How, you ask? Because these two syllables, Kat and Kit, can be used to remind investigators and inactive members about the steps they can take to grow closer to God.”

The presenter was really hamming it up. It was cheesy, but it was also a nice break from the quiet, plodding tone most speakers used in an effort to exemplify reverence.

Plus, he didn't lick or spit on a single Kit Kat.

Bishop Ryan proceeded to explain how Kit Kats could help families with kids—and adults with a good sense of humor—more easily remember the role baptism and confirmation played in the Plan of Salvation. The name of the candy was supposed to remind them of the mnemonic KAT KIT, which stood for:

Kinder Gottes sind wir (We are God’s children)

Alle Menschen hat Jesus Christus vom Tod erlösen (Jesus saved all people from death)

Taufe ist für die Erlösung unerlässlich (Baptism is necessary for salvation)

Konfirmierung brauchen wir auch, damit wir empfängen die Gabe des Heiligen Geistes (Confirmation is also necessary, so we can receive the gift of the Holy Ghost)

Immer sei treu (Always be faithful)

Tun, was wir tun müssen, um Gott zu gehorchen und die Gebote zu halten (We do what we must to obey God and keep the commandments)

“Now go! Practice and enjoy some sugar!”

They broke into groups of four to roleplay the lesson, with one pair of missionaries teaching while the other acted the part of investigators. Kurt and Elder Saint James were grouped with some sister missionaries they didn't know.

“Finally, an opportunity to really act!” Elder Saint James clapped his hands and then, as if he had overlooked something, turned to the sisters. “Because I'm an actor, you see. Professional. Left my career for this mission. But I don't think the break will hurt me. God rewards the faithful. Also, I'm extremely talented.”

Kurt might have thought Elder Saint James was flirting if he hadn’t known him. But that was how Elder Saint James talked to everybody.

“You're just a tad vain, aren't you?” said one of the sisters—her name was Schwester Pepper. “Have you talked to President Steele about fixing that problem?”

Elder Saint James’s eyes lit up. “I have, actually. He's been super patient and supportive in trying to help me with it. How did you figure out I struggle with vanity? You're very perceptive.”

“Um, you bragging about your acting career?”

“Oh. That? That wasn't vanity. That's just true.”

Schwester Pepper and her companion gave each other scandalized looks.

But it turned out Elder Saint James was extremely talented. Kurt had done these kinds of role plays with him back in the MTC, but either had forgotten how good he was in them, or Elder Saint James had somehow managed to get better at acting during his two years of proselytizing.

Actually, that sort of made sense.

They were having so much fun, Kurt should have been utterly indistractable. But at some point during their role play, Elder Anderson entered his line of sight, halfway across the room. And Elder Anderson was gently unwrapping a Kit Kat.

It shouldn't have reminded Kurt of the act of disrobing. But somehow it did.

Images plucked from memories and dreams flickered through Kurt’s mind: Blaine’s body behind Kurt’s, his hands warm on Kurt’s shoulders as he helped him remove his coat; Kurt loosening his tie, and Blaine stepping closer, so very very close, to unknot it and free it from Kurt’s collar; the two of them in bed, Blaine unbuttoning the top buttons of Kurt’s pajama top and leaning in to kiss the exposed skin of his collarbone.

Then Blaine began to eat the Kit Kat, and that was Kurt’s undoing.

Blaine ate it slowly, first sucking the chocolate off its tip, like it was a finger that needed to be licked clean. He nibbled it millimeter by millimeter, and Kurt tried not to look, but every time he glanced away his eyes dragged themselves back, watching to see the Kit Kat disappear into Blaine’s mouth the same way those bananas had that one time—the way other, unthinkable things could disappear into a warm, wet mouth.

Every thought vacated Kurt’s brain. He knew the people around him were talking. He knew he was supposed to say something comprehensible soon.

But desire flooded him, washing everything else away.

“Excuse me.” He stood up so fast, he almost knocked his chair over. “I need to use the bathroom.” He stumbled toward the door.

The bathroom was empty when he got there. A window high up on the wall, just above his shoulder height, was propped open. He leaned against the sill and took a deep breath. He smelled concrete and some sort of flower and the faint odor of car exhaust. He heard a cat meowing in one of the apartments across the street.

The door swung open behind him. “Oh.” It was Elder Saint James’s voice. “I thought you had to use the bathroom? That was fast.”

“I do. But I need to breathe first.” Kurt needed to breathe and to think unsexy thoughts and … actually, getting Elder Saint James to talk to him would probably help. Without the visual stimulus of Blaine Anderson seducing a Kit Kat, he should be able to focus on his friend’s words.

Elder Saint James sidled up next to him at the window. “Are you having a panic attack?”

“No.”

“Because I've had enough companions with panic attacks to learn how to talk people through them, if you want me to.”

“It's not a panic attack. I just needed a break.”

“From me?”

“No.”

“Did something the speaker said upset you? Are you having a crisis of faith?”

“What? No.” Or maybe Kurt was, but that was more of an ongoing thing and not the problem of the moment. In any case, it wasn't something he wanted to discuss with Elder Saint James.

“Sick of your mission?”

“No.”

“Thinking sexy thoughts?”

Kurt wished there was a cave somewhere he could disappear into. “Excuse me?”

Elder Saint James shrugged. “You look a little panicked, but you say you're not having a panic attack. If it's not a panic attack, in my experience, there are only a few things that make a missionary look that way: a crisis of faith, realizing that you still have time left on your mission, and sexy thoughts. So which one is it?”

“I'm pretty sure there are other options.”

“Like what?”

Kurt couldn't think of any.

“It's OK if you have sexy thoughts, Elder Hummel. We all do.”

Kurt stared out the window. “Thanks for your support.”

“Was it me? I wasn't trying to be sexy, but I know I just had this natural kind of magnetism and I don't always know how to turn it off.”

“No, Elder Saint James. It was definitely not you.”

“That's good, I guess. Who was it, then?”

“You know what, Elder Saint James ? I think I'm ready to go back to the chapel.” Kurt pushed against the sill to propel himself backward toward the door.

But Elder Saint James didn't move. “Is it me, or does Elder Anderson really like you?”

Kurt’s skin, from the back of his neck around to his nipples and down to his toes, went cold. “Elder Anderson’s not gay.” 

“That's not what I meant. I mean, if he is or if he isn't, it's not of my business. What I meant was, I wondered what that might be like for you. Because even though he's sort of quiet, I can tell that you two have this vibe. Like, the one that all companions strive for. And you know how they say companionship is preparation for marriage? It teaches us that we can love someone even when we live close enough to learn all their flaws, and to be patient, and all that stuff? Well, you guys have that vibe like you’ve actually learned it. And I just thought … I don’t know.”

“You thought I’m being inappropriate with my companion?”

Elder Saint James guffawed. “No way. Not you. You’re too rule-abiding. I just thought it would be nice if you found that vibe with someone who was like you. But also supremely inconvenient to find it while you were on a mission. And I never really had to worry about that because I'm not gay, and that doesn't seem fair. I guess that's what I was thinking.” Elder Saint James sighed. “Because that vibe, I think that's what a good marriage is based on.”

Kurt’s heart was pounding, pounding. “Are there rumors? Because he's not gay, and it's not fair for people to spread rumors just because—”

“There aren't any rumors. Everyone knows how upstanding you are, Elder Hummel.” Elder Saint James turned away from the window to look at Kurt. Really look at him. Kurt stared at the wall. “And Elder Anderson flirts with the sisters too much for anyone to spread rumors about him. I mean, he doesn't say much, but whatever it is that he says, they just melt for him like a vat of fondue.”

Kurt relaxed. He even felt a smile turning the corners of his mouth. “I keep telling him that, but he denies it. He says he's just friendly and has no improper intentions.”

Elder Saint James raised his eyebrows. “Huh. Maybe he's like me. The kind of guy who just can't help but attract attention.”

Kurt outright laughed at that. He stepped forward and rejoined Elder Saint James at the window. It was getting late, the sun lighting the street orange as the first lamps flickered on. “Have you ever had a special vibe with somebody?”

“I'm not sure. I've had some pretty cool companions. But maybe I'm still too self-centered for it to really happen.”

“I meant with a girl.”

“Oh, yeah … No. Despite appearances, I'm a good Mormon boy. I never let myself date anyone seriously before I left on my mission. And I don't think you can really develop that kind of chemistry until you've spent a lot of time with someone. But I'd like to have that someday. I'd like to find a girl who really gets me, and I get her just as much. And sometimes I wonder if I can get that in the church. Because in the church, I'm supposed to be priesthood authority, and she's supposed to be my helpmeet and, sure, we're both helping each other but … I'm just not sure how we can really connect like best friends should if I technically preside over her. I want to be equals.”

“The roles are equal, just different.” The words felt hollow in Kurt’s mouth.

Elder Saint James didn't answer. Across the way, a cat appeared in an apartment window. Kurt wondered if it was the same cat he’d heard meowing earlier. It didn't look anything like Stürmchen, and yet he thought of her, which made him think of Blaine.

The thoughts weren't so troubling now. They were thoughts of warmth and closeness. Blaine was a good person. He loved that cat the same way he loved everyone, unreservedly and without judgment.

Elder Saint James was right. Kurt’s feelings for Blaine were inconvenient. But they also gave Kurt a window into what marriage might be like, what it felt to be truly loved.

And that was a good thing.

HOHO💖THANK YOU 💘 I was thinking one very Angst with Gojo, like.. He realizes he loves his best friend, but when he confesses they heavily reject him saying they could never trust him that way due to his womanizer self(?) and bc they love nanami,, like,, when they see him they're like 🎇💘MMHH YES, I feel awful but I love seeing gojo in pain for somewhat reason

Im so sorry😂🙏 if you don't want to write this, it's okay👌😌 thank you dear💖

too late

a/n: my past like 4 gojo asks have all been about him being a whore,,, y’all love to slander this man and see him in pain (me too)

synopsis: gojo loves you, you love nanami, things are messy 

t/w: angst, gojo is very sad

w/c: 1.4k

you’ve been gojo satoru’s best friend for as long as you can remember — two brainless jujutsu sorcerers who could never take anything seriously. the two of you together were simultaneously the biggest annoyance and also quite a force to be reckoned with. your abilities were no where near those of satoru, but you complimented him perfectly and no one stood a chance if the two of you were together — and you were always together.

in fact you were together right now, grabbing some food after effortlessly taking out some curses a few cities over. satoru enjoyed the sweeter things in life, downing a package of powdered-coated dough balls while you stuck to your savory bowl of spicy rice cakes. this was tradition for the two of you, sitting on a random bench somewhere in a random city munching on snacks and debriefing on the mission you’d just completed.

you loved it, and you loved satoru — like a brother, like a best friend, like a favorite teammate. you loved satoru but not in the way he loved you.

it was a recent realization, that he loved you in a romantic kind of way. he’d always just seen you as his best friend, but recently your eyes have sparkled a little more, your skin glowed a little brighter, and your voice sounded a little smoother when it flowed into his ears. it was right now, while he watched your sauce-covered lips suck down another rice cake, that he realized he wanted nothing more than to kiss you — right here and right in front of everyone. 

the only problem was, he had quite the history of being a womanizer. satoru went through women as if they were a one-time-use disposable product, and you were very aware of this. but none of those women were you, and he promised himself that he’d give you everything you deserved when he finally confessed. 

“can i have one?” you pointed to his near empty package of sweets and shook him out of his thoughts.

satoru wasn’t much for sharing, especially his desserts, but you were an exception. he plucked out a powdery ball (one that he knew was your favorite flavor) and popped it into your mouth. him hand-feeding you should have been weird, but you’ve been friends for so long that you didn’t think twice about it. you bit the sticky dough down between your teeth, a cheesy smile stretching across your face when you noticed he got your flavor right. 

“th-aanks,” you mumbled, mouth stuffed full of sugary confection. 

in the midst of your chewing, you felt a napkin swipe across your mouth to remove the excess powdered sugar. you eyed satoru suspiciously, starting to catch on to how overly-touchy he was being today. but he just shrugged, making snarky comments about how messy of an eater you were.

it wasn’t until the two of you finished your snacks and were walking through the city that you finally questioned him. he’d wrapped his arm through yours, pulling you close so you were walking right next to his side — his weirdly intimate actions today were starting to stack up. 

“what are you doing?” you peered up at him, giving your arm a small yank as you attempted (and failed) to put some space between the two of you. 

“that guy over there was checking you out,” he shamelessly pointed to a dark-haired man further up the street, his voice defensive. 

“okay, and? that bothers you-?” you yanked again, finally pulling your arm free of his embrace.

“no, but he looks like a weirdo, you deserve someone better than that,” he insisted, an evil grin on his face as he turned his pointer finger so it was facing himself. 

“like me!”

“oh, like nanami” 

your voices came out at the exact same time, but the content of your words could not have been more different. 

“nanami!?”

“you!?”

the two of you froze in the middle of the street, faces covered in equal amounts of shock and confusion. satoru had finally confessed his feelings to, and you’d just accidentally and unintentionally shut him down with one word — nanami.

“nanami?” he repeated again, an edge to his voice as he tried to protect his ego and mask his jealousy. 

“yeah, i- uh, i planned to tell you soon that we’ve been seeing each other recently. i had no idea that you-” you scrambled to explain the situation, trying not to let the hurt on your friend’s face get to you, “you’re with other women all the time satoru, how was i supposed to know?”

he winced at the unintentional insult, his history with women weighing heavy on his shoulders as he realized it was a prominent factor in your rejection. 

“ah - it’s fine! nanami beat me to it i guess. i’m happy for you guys,” he attempted a genuine smile, and anyone else may have been fooled by it too, but you knew him better than to fall for his shitty façade. 

you noticed the tiniest twitch of his eyebrow, and the smallest quiver of his lip as he continued to hide and protect his true feelings. it broke your heart in half, having to watch him put on a show like this. 

“i’m sorry,” you let the apology spill from your lips a few times, but he was very quick to remind you that none of this was your fault. 

“we’ll still be friends, right? i don’t know what i’d do without you,” you gave him a somber look, imagining a future without him by your side. 

satoru and nanami were good friends as well, and you’d never forgive yourself if this tore their friendship apart. 

“of course,” he gave you a cheeky smile and then continued walking down the street with a quick wave of his hand, instructing you to follow him. 

you jogged a couple steps to catch up to him, and he immediately started making jokes about a weird-looking man who was selling street food to your left. in a matter of seconds he was back to his typical self — so much so that it seemed as if your conversation had never happened. 

and that's exactly how satoru tried to imagine his life — as if that conversation had never occurred. he knew how important he was to you, but he also saw the way you looked an nanami with stars in your eyes. he knew that you needed them both, and so he stayed and watched you fall in love with someone who wasn’t him. 

whenever you asked, he told you that it had been a weird one-time thing and that he didn’t feel that way towards you anymore. he’d listen to your stories about the ex-business man and force smiles and laughter to make you happy. because that was all he ever wanted, for you to be happy, and if that meant you had to be with someone else, so be it. 

you and satoru were one in the same, so incredibly alike that maybe you would never have worked out anyway. you were raging with energy, energy that satoru only fueled stronger — where as nanami was gentle, peaceful, the opposite of you and your silver-haired counterpart. nanami cooled you down and and kept you centered, and that was what you needed, but it was something satoru would never have been able to give you. 

so when years had gone by and nanami asked him to be the best man at your wedding, he was crippled. he knew how important it was to you but he could hardly stand the thought of watching you vow yourself to the blonde-man. but despite his feelings, he didn’t even hesitate to say yes. you’d be so disappointed if he hadn’t.

and so he threw on his mask one last time, standing tall in a sleek, black suit as he watch you spill your feelings to nanami in a beautiful vow. you looked perfect, so stunning, and it tore him up that he wasn’t the one standing across from you. 

but he laughed and smiled all night, because that’s who he was. gojo satoru was always expected to be the life the party, and it was a heavy burden to carry. he was so tired of keeping up an act for you and for everyone else; all he wanted was to bury his head into your neck and rest. but he’d never have that, he’d never have you, and tonight made it official.
