#the trend with this song on TikTok really makes me cry

[doushiteworld]

Proseka friend told me that both God-Ish and All I Need Are Things I Like are being added to the game on JP covered by Nightcord (God-Ish) and Wonderlands x Showtime (All I Need Are Things I Like) and oh boy am I scared. They're also adding (Not) a Devil but it's not covered so I'm not worried about that

The World did not end

(A/N): 'ello and welcome to my first F1 fic. I'm quite new here (not to fanfic or tumblr, I mean F1), but I want to give back to the F1 community, since you all helped me out tons during a really rough period these last couple of months.

Pairing: Lando Norris x platonic!reader

Warnings: mentions eating food, death of a loved family member, grief, it sounds sad, but it's actually pretty sweet and hopeful (it's based on a tiktok trend), English is not my first language btw

Wordcount: .7k (she is a shorty)

Masterlist ______________

Finding Mclaren’s reserve driver crying in the cafeteria wasn’t what Lando expected to stumble upon, when I went to check out where the repeating music came from. It sounded like a sad song that could land a high spot on his next Spotify wrapped.

“Uhm, (Y/N), what’s wrong?” he asks gently as he approaches the table. After a startle she turns off her phone, which has been playing the music. Frantically, she wipes her tears. It still does nothing against the fact that she has been crying and that her blood shot eyes are very visible.

Lando shakes his head. When people think Oscar is an introverted person, she is the masterclass of introvertedness. Like, the last stage of a pokémon evolution. That’s why seeing (Y/N) cry in a semi public place like the cafeteria calls for concern.

“There has to be something. The food here is not that bad. I mean, I have the same reaction when I see fish being served, too. But today I felt like the meals were rather good. So do tell. What’s bothering you?”

First she shrugs, the twenty year old not being able to find her voice immediately. “The- the world didn’t end when I was 13.” The tears are coming back again, restricting her voice once again.

Lando gathers her into his arms. even though he doesn’t understand what is happening at all. Does that matter right now, though?

The girl needs another minute or two until she is composed enough to explain the reason behind her crying. “There is this Tiktok trend going viral right now. It’s about people saying what mundane things they are able to do, or-or which things they have achieved, and all that because the world did not end when they were a certain age. They mean they got through some heavy event in their life. And because they got through this, they are able to do said things or achieve this.”

He nods, understanding the bittersweet and hopeful outlook this kind of videos can bring. “And something heavy happened to you at 13?” He probes while trying to keep a cautious tone, not wanting to overstep any boundary he doesn’t see.

“My, you see, when I was 13, my grandmother died. This was the first time I felt real grief. I wished for the world to end, because nothingness would have felt better than this immense amount of grief. And this led me to thinking of how many times I wished for the world to end. Because there were important and life changing events approaching me so quickly. When the world ends, I wouldn’t have to go through them, right?

And suddenly I’m 18, writing my final exams in school and it felt like the biggest task in my life. it felt like make or break. But the world did not end. I was able to graduate.

Then I got into the drivers academy, I am training, studying, and meeting people. I’m doing everything and anything. Because the world did not end when I was 13.

And it didn’t end when I was 16, overwhelmed with studying for school. It also did not happen when I was 19 and put under contract to be a reserve driver for Mclaren.

The world never ended. I begged and cried for all of this to stop. To have peace. Because I thought that I would only feel at peace, when nothing happens anymore. And the world didn’t end and now I sit here with you, talking about a tiktok trend.”

Lando understands her train of thought and sentiment immediately. “You know, I’m happy it didn’t end. These past couple of months with you here were pretty fun. Even Oscar admits it! With that true little smile, not in that monotone tone of his. These interviews and the media stuff is much more fun with these silly remarks of yours. And you are an amazing human being. I’m really glad that your world did not end, because meeting you made mine better.”

(Y/N) laughs, the tears being gone and cheeks heating up at that confession. “I’m glad too. Otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to ravish my way through the mountain of pasta minutes before you came in.” They giggle, knowing they share similar food preferences and have the culinary plate of a four year old toddler.

And all that, because the world did not end.

nothing,nowhere. Hell or Highwater

🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

FFO: COUNTRY, EMO, ALEX G, DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL / LISTEN

Country is back in. It has been for a while. Everyone wants to be a cowboy these days. The undercurrents of americana that pervade popular music have never gone away, but many artists over the past few years have been pushing their over the top characterizations of cowboys and countryscapes back into the mainstream by fusing the genre with electronic based pop and rap. Lil Nas X, Oliver Tree, hell, even Beyoncé has seen the potential in this fusion. In a way, it almost feels a little bit late for singer-songwriter and emo-rap-metalcore extraordinaire Joe Mulherin to be hopping on the trend, but I'm not sure if anyone has so unabashedly mixed alt-country and emo pop like this before.

Hell or Highwater is the newest entry in the series of Joe Mulherin doing whatever the fuck he wants since leaving Fueled by Ramen and regaining ownership of his career. He already dropped a full length record of emo rap bangers earlier this year, and now, almost as if to flex his new found creative freedom, he's switching things up with nine sad, manure scented acoustic tracks. "John Wayne (I Wanna Be A Cowboy)" kicks things off with a reminder that Mulherin is, in fact, a millennial, and his perspective as a 30 something year old struggling with motivation and trapped in cycles of late night doom-scrolling definitely shines through in the lyrics. Somber strums of the guitar accompany him as he sings "I wanna be a cowboy, but I sleep too late. I stayed up all night watching Walmart fights on my phone". At face value, it's a bit cheesy, but the message of desperately wanting more for yourself yet having too much executive dysfunction to take those steps is honest and easily relatable for the modern age. Don't worry though, not every song is so on the nose with it's tiktok generation pandering. Fourth track and one of the biggest album highlights, "In The Country", hits us with the beautiful cry of the harmonica and a much less obvious approach to discussing depression and the yearning to escape to a quieter, simpler life.

I'd be remiss not to mention that there is still a small hip hop influence on this album. "Hydrangeas", "Cliché Lovers", and "Honey" all feature some 808s and trap hi hats, but Mulherin's sad cowboy persona still remains at the core of these songs, and these elements blend so seamlessly into the rest of the album that they hardly feel out of place, especially if you are already familiar with the previous work of nothing,nowhere. These songs bring a sort of mixtape feel to the album, and while they aren't the star of the show for me, they act as nice segues between the more countryfied moments. Things really get kicked up a notch near the end of the record with bombastic choruses in a slacker visage like early Dashboard Confessional meets Rocket-era Alex G. Closing track "New England" ends things off on a particularly high note, starting with the lone riffing of an electric banjo before drums, acoustic guitars and blues slides all drop into place. Mulherin throws a slight twang on his voice as he recites some of his most muddy truck lovin' lyrics to date, "Well, I know that backroads and dirty clothes just ain't for everyone. So, you take the city lights and skyline, give me a setting sun". It's probably the most cowboy cosplay moment on the whole album, but in the midst of the trees and cornfields still lies an explosive, tearjerking chorus of lost love that could make me weep. Mulherin has always had a knack for hooks and catchy choruses, and this song further exemplifies the fact that he could easily make a career in writing chart topping hits if he wanted to.

I'll admit, I wasn't expecting to fall in love with this album. My personal relationship with country music has gone from ironically blasting "Fix A Drink" by Chris Jansen for shits and giggles, to eagerly watching Lucinda Williams live with clasped hands and open ears, but when the emo kid next door suddenly shows up on your front lawn with a cowboy hat, acoustic guitar in hand, and face painted like a clown, I think anyone would be a little skeptical. But whether it's rap, metalcore, or alt country, Mulherin never fails to write a memorable, heart clutching song. Hell or Highwater is just further proof that his song writing talent transcends borders, and—outside of the constraints of major labels—he truly can do whatever the fuck he wants.

I have a scenario for Case if you don't mind <33. So I don't know if you were on that side of tiktok, but there was a trend with this song from a really sad movie where there were slidshows with gutwrenching beautiful poetry about life. I remember so many of them making me sob. So I was wondering if you could do Case reacting to reader coming to him, sobbing, after reading one of those poetry slide show videos and she's just hugging him, telling him how much she loves him and cares about him through tears and is just really emotional (me lol). This might be too specific...

I got youu, im pretty sure i know what you mean so ill see if its what i think, but i also cry when i read poetry especially sad poems<3

🤍 the more and more you read the poems that fill your tiktok, the more tears fill down your eyes. You know you should stop reading but cant.

🤍case being in the other room editing some clips suddenly has his door quickly open to you standing there with the phone clutched in your hand and tears streaming down your cheeks.

“Baby are you okay?” Case says as he quickly makes his way to you to hold you into a big hug.

🤍through tears you tell him about the videos youve watched and how they made you look on the world.

🤍 “i just love you…” you mumbled into his chest, “and i care about you more than anything and..” “im grateful for you to be in my life..”

🤍the soft sweet words rambled out of your mouth as case softly ran his hands through your hair.

🤍 “i love you more, so so much more. And i care about you deeply, im not going anywhere” he reassures you.

🤍he takes you out to the kitchen to get you little eye ice packs for your swollen eyes and he softly caresses his thumb on your chin as you stand infront of him.

Mwah,

Girl im emotional too so this is like perfect for me as well because i would do this😭

YUMMYYYY😚

[sweetnereater]

I am-back from the dead to finish part 2 of that mini rant I made about underrated gems! Ima just skip the paragraph and get straight to it

Disclaimer: I’m not saying that if you find out about something from a popular trend, tiktok audio etc that that’s bad or your a fake fan or anything like that, if anything I think that’s a good way for these creations to finally get the attention they deserve! My rant is really about how underrated these things are even though they shouldn’t be and how I wish they were more popular not about how people find out about it, I apologize if I come off rude to I mostly just exaggerate for comedy and I hope not to offend anyone 🩷 let’s get to it!

This^…now what’s even messed up about this artist is that not only are they multi-talented in a bunch of different genres, have hundreds of songs, and has been making music since at least 2012, but two of their songs blew up ( one of which ; hot milk; blew up twice!) unless you had a animation meme phase as a kid you can garentee that nobody knows or talks abt snails house! And it makes me wanna cry because of the 6 years I’ve been listening to them not a single one of their songs have flopped.

Now just like ujico bee and puppycat is actually getting a lot of attention lately due to finally getting uploaded to Netflix- but as a long time bee and puppycat fan who watched the YouTube series 4 years ago- where were people when this show was going on??? Like for years I would always search up bee and puppycat to see if anyone was finally paying attention to it

AND THIS—-THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE-

I bet you-I bet you 500 bucks and your life if you can guess who these guys are

.

.

.

No clue??? Yknow this song? The song that should’ve been the moment that this group finally finally blew up because their remixed song got really big on tiktok?

It was made by them, then remixed by the bao person, and then reup loaded into a sped up Version this year. Now as someone who heard banana shake ages ago I found out about humming urban stereo a whole two years before their song blew up…why are they still so underrated??? Like I’ve been listening to them for two years and yet most of their old songs still have ( I kid you not) under 100 likes-( 21, 10,5)

That is atrocious… this song blew up-TWICE- and their still barely getting any attention!

I swear sometimes I wanna cry when I think abt it, now at the very least lately this year all the things I’ve been enjoying have weirdly been getting a lot of attention thankfully! But im just hoping it stays that way

Performing Life: How "Didn’t Know What I Was in For" Reflects Algorithm Influence

A Song That Speaks to the Struggles of Identity, Empathy, and Modern Life.

In a world shaped by images, what happens when self-perception is tied to what we show rather than who we are?

*please refer to our last post featuring the lyrics of this song.

A Musical Perspective

Better Oblivion Community Center’s “Didn’t Know What I Was in For” explores themes of empathy, action, and performance in a way that resonates with the themes in TikTok Tides. The song critiques how care can feel shallow when done for an audience. By examining the commodification of empathy, it sheds light on how platforms often package care as a trend...

The Performance of Activism

The song begins with a reflection on observing suffering without taking meaningful action:

"My telephone, it doesn't have a camera. If it did I’d take a picture of myself. If it did I'd take a picture of the water and the man on the offramp holding up the sign that's asking me for help."

This speaks to the instinct to document suffering rather than engage with it. On platforms like TikTok, trends such as #ActOfKindness can raise awareness but often focus on visibility rather than creating lasting impact. As Aderayo Balogun explains, activism online frequently prioritizes optics over action, turning solidarity into fleeting trends. This longing to capture an image of herself reflects a deeper struggle with identity in a world focused on appearances, capturing the disconnect between how we want to be seen and who we actually are.

The song critiques this dynamic further with lines about distraction:

"I know a girl who owns a boutique in the city, selling clothes to the fashionably late. Says she cries at the news but doesn’t really, ‘cause it’s too much fun, it’s too much time, and too much plastic money to be made."

This verse critiques how people feel they should care about global issues but get distracted by the personal. The girl claims to cry at the news but really doesn’t.

It shows how capitalism and consumer culture can dull real empathy, replacing it with performative concern. On TikTok, the tension between wanting to care and being distracted by 'the good life' reflects a common struggle in today’s world.

Media’s Role in Commodifying Compassion

The song also critiques how media reduces human suffering into consumable content:

"My arms are strapped in a straitjacket, so I couldn’t save those TV refugees, when they’re on their backs in a bloody bath full of Sarin gas, on a screen."

This intense imagery highlights how media—and by extension, social media—packages crises into moments of emotional appeal. The University of North Dakota calls this crisis fatigue, where constant exposure to suffering leaves viewers desensitized. TikTok accelerates this by turning complex issues into bite-sized videos, often prioritizing immediate emotional appeal over actionable solutions. Empathy becomes something to be performed and shared, losing its authenticity. While these platforms can raise awareness, they also risk turning compassion into a trend, something fleeting and transactional.

Pandemic Morality and Social Media Judgment

Dr. Amrita Ghosh explores how, during the pandemic, social media created a “competitive performative compassion,” where users were judged for how they displayed empathy. Posts of bread-making or flowers were criticized as insensitive, while others were praised for aligning with the “right” kind of care. This dynamic commodified compassion, transforming it into something that had to be proven publicly to meet moral standards.

A Question For-You

“Didn’t Know What I Was in For” offers a look at how empathy and identity are distorted by modern life in the digital age. It critiques performative activism, media’s role in commodifying care, and the pressure to align our self-perception with societal expectations.

So, how do you think social media shapes the way you show care to others?

This is going to be short and it is inspired by this song and tiktok trend

Sho hadn't seen Konoha since he left america they lost all contact with his long time crush he couldn't really say bf not with what he did

🎶Your hearts in the ground frozen over My hearts in the sky supernova🎶

Aki:Sho omg sho is that you?

Aki:🎶Your hearts in the ground frozen over🎶

Sho:Yeah because you left me no note no text no way to contact you

Aki:🎶My hearts in the sky supernova🎶

Sho:Is that your way of telling me you moved on or you fell out of love

Aki:With you never i missed you Sunlight

POV: your a little too functional so your mental illness isn’t taken seriously

I’m one of the 15% of autistic people that can work a job. This makes it hard to “prove” I’m autistic. Im good enough at masking to not get exhausted and shut down easily and while having a quite personality to make it seem like I’m actually cool when I’m not. Im not ok a lot of the time. I can’t stand for long periods. I stress myself out. I think to much. I have outburst. I get overwhelmed and just sit in the bathroom. I’ve learned how to suppress my daily panic attack but sometimes it’s just to much and I cry. My eyes fill with tears and rub my eyes and blink aggressively to stim so nobody notices. My eyes are always red and puffy from how much I silently cry I just get a reputation for being high all the time. This combination of being blasian, red eyes, short, and already dressing extremely casually all the time has gotten me out of a lot of trouble. I have trouble pressing my emotions. I hate talking about my issues. I do repeating tasks all the time. Locking my door over and over and over, count the starts. Walking in a curtain pattern. Left foot always first. Breathing in a pattern. I give myself panic attacks by being alive I worry about so much. Everything can go wrong. I have my like set yet I’m to lazy to do any of it. I play games all day when I could be making them. I’ve cried while having sex so often I’m so good at hiding it. Even in person. I shake constantly. I choke on my own words. I try and not laugh because I hate how it sounds. My voice is awful. I hate my face and when I don’t look like who I really am. I’m scared of my reflection as much as I jump when I see my own shadow. I hear voices. So often. I hear whispers. Breathing that isn’t mine. Moaning and crying and laughing. I get dizzy thinking about it. I am hyper fixated on the government. My special interest is space and time and reality. I have a tendency to be hyper fixed on music, games and art more than anything. I will play the same game for days to months on end. Craving it. Thinking about it 24/7 watching videos of the game AS I play the game. I will listen to the same song over and over and over and over and over. I’ve gone a whole week listening to the same song and I still love it. I will look at artists and want to draw exactly like them. Studying them so harshly. I know so many art movements it’s insane. Im hard to be romantically intimate with because I hate being touched yet I need it so bad. I hold my breath and stiffened everything my own boyfriend touches me. I’m horrified. I shake. I stiffen and try to relax and breath until it’s over. But I don’t want it to be over. I love the smell of him. The taste of him. Even tho I find kissing disgusting. I love the taste of his tongue. I’m a extremely sexual person. By my own design? Maybe. I’m scared to be abandoned so I let it happen. Most of the time I push for it. I’m very rarely actually horny. I was today and yesterday. Excruciatingly so. Other than that.. eh. Im extremely optimistic while being real. I think corecore could be a genuinely movement. A nonverbal protest against globalization, capitalism, hate speech etc while my bf sees it as a tiktok trend and nothing more. I see the good in the bad as much as I possibly can. The good in the internet, in government, in police. Because you have to see every side to even begin to argue. I understand a lot yet play dumb because I’m both scared to be wrong and scared to impress beyond levels I can’t build upon. I think demons and gods exist just as much as I believe the universe itself is it’s own entity. I believe in rituals and prayer. Manifestations and more. I believe that I’m to codependent on my bf and once a year every year he realizes I’m not good for him yet he always comes back. That is something I understand. I know no matter how much I say “I won’t take him back next time” I will. I know I can be a push over just as much as I can be mean. I know nobody as ever seen me be mean to my fullest. I know I could make anyone cry if I wanted to. I know I can kill.

Mandela Catalogue HCs

heheh hyperfixation go brrrrr

Please don't yell at me if these suck im sensitive 🥺 /hj

Mark:

Would have been the best big brother to Sarah I stg

Not afraid to wear a tiara and feather boa and have a tea party with her

This towering young man sat on a dinky little plastic chair sipping imaginary tea, pinky out and all

Aaagghhhhhhh i love him

Definitely one of those "super talented, high iq, gifted kids" before the burnout hit him

Every Christmas, Easter, and birthday he'd ask his parents for a dog. He never got one :(

Not exactly a Disney adult, just a big fan of animated movies in general.

I think his favorites would be The Iron Giant, Monsters Inc, and Lilo and Stitch

Honorable mentions to The Fox and The Hound and Oliver and Company but they make him cry

Mark Heathcliff best boy 1,000,000/10

Cesar:

Cesar fans, you have my whole heart fr

You really took nothing and ran with it I can't not respect that

I see him as a total mama's boy. As far as I know, there's no mention of his dad anywhere so I imagine it's just him and his mom.

As a little boy he was like "I'm gonna be the man of the house now!" and he stuck to it like glue

Taking the trash out, doing the dishes, mowing the lawn because "Mom, you deserve to get off your feet, you're working too hard"

I think him being a mama's boy and having so much respect for her would translate into huge respect for women in general

I like the idea of him painting his nails ❤

His room is like a walk-in freezer you can literally see his breath when he sleeps

Used to skateboard but eventually "grew out of it" (he actually broke his wrist and is too scared to do it again)

Adam:

This toxic little fuck i love him

The most "dont talk to me until I've had my coffee" person you'll ever meet.

Not having consistent access to coffee must have been miserable for him when he was on the run. Doubly miserable for poor Jonah having to put up with a grouchy Adam for who even knows how long

You remember that tiktok trend from a few years ago like "I look really intimidating until I smile"? ADAM ADAM ADAM ADAM ADAM!!!

He's such an angsty little shit with the most severe case of resting bitch face disease but on the rare occasion he actually smiles??? Human sunshine

Definitely the type to look down when he smiles to try and hide it

Wouldn't be caught DEAD singing out loud, but will absolutely murmur songs to himself under his breath.

Just imagining him folding laundry or cooking and singing whatever song is stuck in his head to himself I LOVE THIS MAN

He likes rock music in general but I feel like he's really into songs like Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. Yknow those really mopey mid 2000s ballads?

Shattered by OAR, Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, stuff like that

Jonah:

Rip jonah you would've loved tiktok

Was a theater kid but he got kicked out of class. Dude was just too hyper to follow directions

What can he say? He just stole the spotlight 🤪 (he's crying inside)

Walks into every room twirling his car keys around his finger like a dork

Can not be trusted to stand still, it's best to just make him wear one of those backpack leashes for everyone's safety

A gamer but not in a toxic way. He's actually terrible at games but he thinks it's fun to dick around and goof off in them.

You knows those "girlfriend who bites" memes? That's him. He's the girlfriend who bites.

Thatcher:

You've heard of wine moms, you've heard of wine aunts, well get ready for wine dad

I feel like he paints? He strikes me as very artsy

Loves plants but can't keep them alive for shit. It's not even that he forgets to water them, he follows all the instructions, the plants just hate him

Can't sleep without a TV on, or at least some sort of white noise or music playing.

Total garbage at gift giving lmao but he's trying his best

"I got you this card. Happy birthday."

"Thatcher, this says 'My condolences'"

"I know"

# THAT’S MY BABY

“touching you slowly, love how you hold me”

their reaction to the tiktok message filter trend | toman boys (Mikey, Draken, Baji, Kazutora, Chifuyu, Mitsuya, Hakkai, Smiley, Angry, Takemichi)

warnings: fluff, cussing, empty threats.

synopsis: you and him are hanging out together and you decide to prank him. you use the filter that makes it look like you’ve received a message, then show him. “Hey, look at this filter!” and then the fake message you wrote pops up, seeming as though it came from someone else. it reads, “hey babe. u free later? let’s link up. lemme know when your boyfriend leaves 😉”

song: i.f.l.y by bazzi

MIKEY → pissed. all pouty and wide-eyed as he stares you, having grabbed the arm you’re using to hold your phone because how fucking dare you. “babe, really?” he releases you and turns away, going back to his phone and sitting in huffy silence.

he waits a bit before turning back to you with a pitiful expression. “...are you cheating on me?” he pauses, lower lip wobbling just a lil’. “...be honest.”

tell him it’s a prank right now or he WILL cry.

DRAKEN → would just stare at you, partially offended, partially annoyed. “stop playin’ with me,” he’d say. if you try to hide the message from him, he’d grab you by the arm and look at the screen to make sure he read it right. then, he would just sit there, mad as hell about the whole thing. sucking his teeth and all.

actually super mad. would say something along the lines of, “like I won’t fuck you up.” oop—

BAJI → laughs it off. because what loser thinks they stand a chance in taking you away from him? would definitely clown you for it. but he is lowkey insecure and would stop chuckling for a second just to look you dead in the eye and ask if you’re cheating on him.

“don’t lie to me,” he’d mumble, fangs digging into his lower lip as he tries not to lose his cool. “this better be some kind of fuckin’ joke.”

KAZUTORA → will probably smack your phone out of your hand and then snatch it up before you can reach it. he will read the message over at least three times before he looks up at you like he wants an explanation.

“don’t you have anything to say for yourself?” he pauses, waiting for your response. but you’re so busy choking back laughter that you can’t respond. he gets upset really quickly, “say something!”

he’s hurt asf though. his eyes might get a lil’ glossy.

CHIFUYU → annoyed. like he gets all pouty, and just crosses his arms. trying to stare you down despite the lump forming his throat. “really, (y/n)?”

he gets a bit choked up, blinking fast as he scrunches up his face, eyes stinging. “you serious?”

probably starts mumbling under his breath about how mean you are. he starts flipping through the pages of his manga to keep his mind off how he is literally about to cry.

... you’re breaking his heart… apologize 🔫

MITSUYA → laughs.

“I’ve seen this trend!” he gets a lil’ excited, knowing that there’s no way you cheated on him. you’re kind of disappointed because the prank didn’t work at all and he notices immediately. he tugs you closer by the wrist and presses a kiss to your cheek, trying not to laugh as he notices the faint pout on your lips.

“sorry, did I ruin it?”

cheeky mf’er. 😒 you can’t blame him though. he’s just happy to know you’re loyal.

HAKKAI → another crybaby.

don’t play with him like that. he’s ✨ sensitive ✨

he tries not to cry. but when he reads over the message and then looks at you, his chin immediately starts to wobble and his eyes sting.

“who’s that?” he asks, quietly. looking at you with the most pitiable eyes in the world. and you start to laugh. he grabs you by the wrist and shakes your arm weakly as he bites his lip, blinking fast to keep his tears at bay. “you’re not serious, are you? this is a joke, right?”

SMILEY → will beat you up. just kidding... ahaha...

no, I’m not. 😃

he is practically forcing his smile as he asks you who that was. you try to shrug him off and say it’s no one, turning your phone away so that he can’t see. but then he grabs your phone, holding it out of your reach as he asks you again. “who is it, hm? lemme see!”

wrestles your phone out of your hand and takes his sweet time reading over the message. then, he looks at you, smile disappearing completely. he doesn’t find it funny.

tell him it’s a prank right now or he’ll genuinely be hurt asf.

might try to press the message and reply only to realize that it’s a filter and you’re pranking him. he’s relieved and pissed simultaneously. like, yeah. you’re not cheating on him but what made you think you could prank him like that?

ANGRY → y’all already know not to play with this man like that.

he quietly asks you who that was. you shrug, acting like you don’t know what he’s talking about. he asks again, voice trembling just a lil’ and you can’t help but to blurt out that it’s a prank.

he was really about to turn into the Orge. don’t play with him like that! 🗣️

TAKEMICHI → gets really quiet.

he purses his lips, sneaking glances at you as you pull your phone away. but he already saw the message. his stomach sinks as he thinks you’re cheating on him for sure.

he doesn’t even say anything. he kind of just sits there and waits for you to say something. but when you don’t, he takes it upon himself.

“...you cheating on me?” you can tell his voice is straining, thick with emotion. and when you start to laugh, he just frowns. like it’s not funny 😐 only when you explain the prank does he nod numbly, turning away and mumbling about how mean you are.

I had a sensory overload today and cried on my boyfriend chest, so you're all getting headcanons so I can make myself feel better! Don't pay any attention as to how late it is!

Jacob:

-He has so little confidence in himself that it's actually sad

-Cannot be stopped from making self depreciating jokes, no matter how many times people tell him it's not good

-If this boy had a tiktok it would be blank. Maybe a cartoon pfp, but not a single video (Same bruh same)

Emma

-Out of everyone in the loop, she's the best at makeup. Doesn't mean she wears it all the time, but when she does good shit

-If she's in a bad mood, she can destroy you with words if she wants to. Luckily, this doesn't happen often, especially not to her friends. Random men that don't leave her alone on the other hand...

-For a while she had a "I'm not like other girls" thing going on, especially whenever Noor first came around. Not really there anymore though

Millard

-Do you ever get sensory overloads and cry? Then boy, do I have the cure for you! Cry while he hugs you. Automatic cure, I can confirm this right now from personal experience

-Sometimes he gets a little too focused on something and won't realize just how late he's said up until someone has to actually drag him to bed

-Gives the best and most thoughtful gifts. Oh? You collect pinned bugs? He's finding out where to get a rare pinned bug and giving you that on Valentine's day! Yes, that's what he did for me, I love him so much #justfictivethings lol

Hugh

-Out of everyone in the loop, he has the most...complex feelings about his gender. Being so tied to bees, he's beegender, but with that comes some strange feelings. Most bees are female, so he does feel a strong connection to femininity. But at the same time, he still feels tied to drones/male bees.

-He tries not to think too much about it, and maybe keeps it bottled up a bit too much. Maybe it's because it stresses him out to ponder too much. Maybe he's embarrassed to talk about it. No matter what though, he does feel a lot of gender euphoria wearing skirts and confusing people about what gender he is.

-His sexuality is probably just as confusing to find an exact label, but it's not something he worries about. He just ends up using the term queer and calls it a day

Fiona

-Fiona being plantgender surprises no one, and it never will. Same with her being bi. She just...you can just look at her and tell

-She's probably the least happy in a modern setting. Everything is just...too much for her. She likes the whole cottagecore thing, but she'd much rather keep to her usual ways. So still stuck in the late 1800's

-She has a way to talk to Hugh with just...looks. Slight facial expressions, body language, they just know each other that well. More often than not, they're flirting with each other like this out in the open

Enoch

-Was put on kitchen duty once....Once. The peculiars don't talk about this often

-You can't pay him to play sports with the other boys. He'd sooner pull teeth

-I am voting him as most likely to have filled his homework with doodles

Horace

-He's not a fan of many things in the modern day, but he does appreciate a few things. Easier tools for cooking, Google, and easy access to fabric to name a few things

-What he isn't a fan of though? Fashion (obviously), dance trends, and the modern humor

-His scream could break glass

Bronwyn

-HATES it when people call her a man for whatever reason. On bad days, it makes her cry

-She has a bit of hyper empathy with animals, especially baby ones

-A boy hit on her ONCE and she felt physically nauseous about it for a whole WEEK

Claire

-Says her favorite Disney princess is Aurora because her dress is pink, it's actually Cinderella because of the song "so this is love"

-She sees everyone in the loop as her siblings, but especially Enoch

-In a modern setting, she is addicted to those dress up flash games, bonus points if they're princess themed

Olive

-Sometimes she rolls her ankle in those big shoes, there are a lot of tears from that

-Has stepped on toes before! Bones were indeed broken!

-Master at finding lost items. No idea why

Bonus Victor!

-Horrible about confessing his feelings

-Makes horrible decisions when he gets nervous. It's like all critical thinking goes out the window

-Seems like the type with pencil graphite stuck in his hand permanently somewhere

Throughout the months of April and May of 2022, the defamation trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard had taken place in front of the whole world. Depp sued Heard for defamation after she wrote an “opposite the editorial page” (Op-ed) on the Washington post titled “I spoke up against sexual violence - and faced our culture’s wrath. That has to change.” In that op-ed, she talked about sexual and domestic abuse that she experienced as a child but also in romantic relationships. She did not mention Johnny Depp. The trial was made public for the whole world to see.

It is generally believed that this trial made it possible for men to speak up about domestic abuse, however, I think the only thing it did was reinforce misogyny and further silence victims.

I have been on social media during the trial and everybody was talking about it. Compilations on youtube about “the best moments” or “funniest moments” of this trial received more and more views, and especially on the platform “Tiktok” the harassment against Amber Heard was the harshest I've seen a celebrity receive after getting “cancelled”. Short videos of her crying when testifying (in front of the whole world) about sexual abuse or rape she received from her ex-husband Depp were published with circus music in the background, “body language experts” (even though it is not an actual thing) all over the world calling her testimony acting and suspicious. People in the comments, did not deny Depp’s alleged sexual abuse on his ex-wife, instead, they “didnt see what he did wrong here” and “they wished that was them”. I, personally, was shocked by how the public acted when it came to Heard’s testimony on alleged sexual abuse: let’s imagine that she really was lying, it was still a description of rape, not just a normal intercouse, so those comments I read about rape, were disgusting to me, and i can't even imagine how rape victims felt reading comments romanticising such important accusations, just because the perpetrator is a famous actor. The way the general public reacted to violence and especially sexual violence shows that our culture has no problem and is ready to diminish and make fun of women’s traumatic experiences, more so if they are caused by powerful men.

Besides, Heard’s testimonies would be cut into short videos, would be edited with a written caption distorting her meaning and would be published. Us, users of the internet, would see the video cut, edited and out of context, and assume she really is crazy. In fact, by the end of April, she was already the narcissist, manipulative, abusive, money-hungry witch while Johnny Depp was this brave man who built up the courage to finally break his silence and face his abuser, who is very true to himself and innocent because he comes to court in sunglasses and eats candies.

When the verdict came out on June 1st, it was like Amber Heard’s death sentence was pronounced: she was humiliated in front of the world, and petitions asking for her removal from the movie she starred in “Aquaman” got millions of signatures.

A few months later, Brad PItt is suing Angelina Jolie and people are already taking his side, Evan Rachel Wood’s complaints are being questioned, even though it was already proven that she was abused in every way possible by her long-term ex boyfriend Marilyn Manson who dated her when she was 18 while he was 37, but his image got better because he is Johnny Depp’s best friend and everyone loves Johnny Depp. So it is safe to say that the Metoo movement has died because any woman speaking up now is accused of wanting to destroy the man’s life and career and faces diffamation complaints from her abuser.

What I noticed is that women are held accountable for actions they did and actions they didn't do, and are made fun of whether they're abused or abusive.

The petition of Amber Heard getting removed from her movie got millions of votes while a Chris Brown song was trending at the same time. Chris Brown was proven guilty of abusing and being violent against his ex-girlfriend Rihanna, but everybody still listens to his songs, in fact, jokes are made everyday about Rihanna being abused. Other people still defend that we should separate the man from the artist, defending the fact that abusers should still have a career despite their actions, however women's careers are destroyed for being victims.

In conclusion, my opinion is that the Depp v Heard trial should have never been public because it was treated like a reality show, and the way the general public reacted to it has made it easier now, not only to discredit women’s experiences and trauma, but also keep any other (female) victim from speaking out, fearing that she may be publicly humiliated and see her life shatter right in front of her. Amber said after the trial that she has never felt more removed from her humanity, and i completely understand her feelings, even I, who was on no one’s side during the trial, was shocked by the comments I read and videos I’ve seen of not only how she was not treated in a human way but also how grown people were threatening to kill her one-year-old daughter.

but i love you, so please let me go

relationship: atsumu x reader 

warnings: allusions to infidelity, angst, atsumu may act out of character for this, but this is how i hc him in this particular scenario

notes: this is hopefully going to be part of a series called ‘but i love you so’. i’m sure you guys have come across the song on tiktok, or the trend, and this is my take on the different ways you can interpret ‘but i love you, so please let me go’. hope you guys like it!

masterlist |  part two

--

In hindsight, it really wasn’t supposed to end like this. If this had to end in Atsumu’s book, it would have ended in a different way. 

“I don’t get it ‘Tsum,” you sighed, sitting down on the ground facing him as he stood in the kitchen. “I thought we,” you blanked and rubbed your head. “I thought that we were okay. I thought we were more than okay.”  

Atsumu hesitantly takes a step forward, “We are, angel. We are.” 

“If we were then we wouldn’t be here, I-,” you rubbed your head in frustration once again. You could feel it, the warm, uncomfortable itch in the back of your throat, the tears gathering in your eyes. “If we were okay, you wouldn’t have done it.” 

You bring your knees up and rest your head against it, if you had to cry in the same room as Atsumu, the least you can do to protect the little dignity you had left was to make sure he didn’t see it. 

He called your name gently and it took everything in you to not automatically look at him. Guess that’s a routine that you have to break. You shook your head at the thought, and you hear him call out your name again. 

“I’m tired, ‘Tsum,” you whisper, but you knew he heard it because whatever he wanted to say died in his throat. You look up at him, his hair is more dishevelled than a couple of minutes ago. “I am so tired.” 

Atsumu knows what you mean. You know what you mean. But damn if he wasn’t going to give up without a fight. “Rest, angel. You can take the bedroom, and I can,” he licks his lips and looks at the couch behind you. You know he doesn’t want to say it but you know he will, and you let out a shuddered breath because this has never happened before. 

“I can, I can take the couch, yeah?” He licks his lips and runs his hand through his hair again. There’s tears in his eyes, and the crack in his voice feels like a thousand pin needles in your heart. “Then, tomorrow I’ll make ye, yer favourite breakfast and we can take the whole day and talk about it.” 

It’s a lie. You both know it’s a lie, and you humour him for both of your sakes. You know that it’s not going to happen. What’s the harm in indulging just a little bit more? You’re both at the finish line anyway, just a little bit more. 

You look at him and smile, and you hope it comes out the way you want it to. You hope that it’s the one that he’s seen thousands of times, the ones that were caused by him. It hurts, you’re hurting but at the moment you know that you don’t want to hurt right now. You’re going to be feeling this hurt for a long time, but for now you need that comfort and warmth that Atsumu brings you. 

“Yeah, ‘Tsum, that sounds good,” he smiles at that, and for a moment the chilliness and numbness that was caused by him disappeared. 

He takes a step forwards towards you and holds out a hand and you take it, like the thousand of times he’s done before. A muscle memory that will soon be gone. 

Atsumu holds you there, standing between the kitchen and the living room, like you’ve done so before. He doesn’t hold you tightly like it’s your last time, instead he holds you like it’s a normal Tuesday night. He wants this last memory of you touching him to be the same as before. He doesn’t want this to feel like it’s the end. 

He whispers the three familiar words that your heart and mind have called home, it’s a whisper but it’s there, like the last dying embers of a fire, faint but there.

The most anoying Car Trip - ACOTAR characters edition

Basically the TikTok trend but Tumblr version

Cassian as the driver because he would HATE it

All Cassian wants is to be in middle of the chitchat that will be happening in the backsits

He seriously can't focus on the road

He'll definitely take the wrong path so many times that they'd arrive hours later than they'd planned

Everyone else would be mad at him

Nesta in the passenger seat

Nesta and Cassian would be fighting the whole time

They would fight over the music

Or because Cassian took the wrong path again

Or because Nesta told him to shut up for she was not in the mood for a conversation

And when they wouldn't be fighting, they would be shameless flirting

And sharing heated touches that would make everyone else really uncomfortable

Azriel in the middle of the first row of seats

This seat would be hell for my poor baby bat

He would be suffocated from the lack of personal space

In addition to having to put up with Nesta and Cassian making out in front of him

He wanted to be isolated in one of the first sits

Now he's just trapped somewhere he might actually need to socialize with other people

Mor on Azriel's right because the weird tension between them would be insufferable

Plus, Mor might just keep kicking Nesta's seat, leading to a huge fight

Feyre on Azriel's left

Just because she would want to gossip with Mor during the whole trip

And both of them would invade Azriel's personal space

She would feel the need to throw up everytime Nesta and Cassian made a sexual insinuation**

**Nesta and Cassian make a lot of sexual insinuations

Now things are getting really shity...

Elain in the middle of the second row of seats

If you think the weird tension between Mor and Azriel was tough, now Azriel can't even look behind him

More awkwardness to the car trip I guess

Lucien at Elain's right

Elain won't even look at him during the whole trip

He won't have no one to talk to

Not that he isn't already used to it anyway

Poor Lucien will be leaving this trip with tears in his eyes, a broken heart and depression

Okay, I admit that was my most insidious trick...

Gwyn wearing the regifted necklace at Elain's left

Fight fight fight

You can't tell me not a single good discussion will come out of it

Or at least both girls really pissed off with the shadowsinger

It's not a secret that Azriel wants to throw himself out the window and let the car run over him

Amren and Rhys in the backsits

Amren would be doing only two things during the whole trip:

Complaining about absolutely everything

And asking Rhysand to be High King

Rhys would hate this trip as well

First, no one is paying attention on him

I mean, he's isolated, he can't control the song, he can't participate in the gossip that's going on on the first rows...

He's also sad for being away from Feyre

And he's a flick away from throwing Amren out the window

Varian is in the last row of seats as well

He's the only one at peace

I don't think this guy could be pissed at anyone or anything after handling Amren

Emerie between Varian and Rhysand

She's not really pissed off about anything

She's just uncomfortably seated between two males she doesn't talk to

She's a little desappointed for not being next to Nesta and Gwyn

Anyways, she's definitely reading some good smut to spend time

Honestly? I'd do the same.

Bonus: where's Nyx????

Someone forgot Nyx's car seat in the trunk (probably Cassian)

Quickly reminder that Nyx is actually in the car seat

He'll cry during the whole trip

Basically...

Fucking.Worst.Car.Trip.Ever.
