The screen of your phone lit up from where it sat on the dashboard of Jungwooās spaceship, and you immediately grabbed it. It was Donghyuck, and at this point, you wouldāve taken your bestie āSPAM LIKELYā to get you out of here.
āHey, itās Hyuck, you got it here?ā You asked Jungwoo, already on your feet.
āYes, Iāll be okay,ā Jungwoo confirmed, eyes momentarily leaving the screen to meet yours.
You clambered out of the hatch with haste, taking off into the trees. Hastily sending Donghyuck a text that youād call him back in a minute, you practically bolted back up the cliffside to get to the road before doing just that.
Hyuck picked up before it could even ring once, not wasting any time, āHey, howās our pet alien?ļæ½ļæ½
āHe has a name,ā you retorted, still out of breath.
āHe doesnāt seem to mind when I call him that.ā
āHe probably doesnāt understand how derogatory it could be. His language might not have a direct equivalent for the concept.ā
āYeah, whatever, how is he?ā
āFine. All of his wounds have healed.ā
Your friendās tone immediately shifted. āYou sound weird. Whatās going on?ā
āNothing!ā You insisted.
āY/N.ā
āPromise not to tell anyone?ā
āSure.ā
And so after explaining your situation to Donghyuck to the best of your ability, you waited with bated breath for his response.
āOh my God, heās going to lay his eggs in you,ā he gasped.
āHyuck! Gross!ā You hissed, half-ready to hang up right then.
āIāve seen enough alien movies to know where this is going.ā
āOr watched too much weird porn.ā
āYou didnāt laugh at my joke, clearly youāre in crisis, sorry.ā His apology sounded sincere.
You sighed, staring down into the trees below you that you knew contained a spaceship and spaceman that werenāt from here, that didnāt belong here. āI mean, heās still fixing his ship to leaveā¦ā
āWhat if he plans on abducting you and taking you with him?ā
āStop it!ā You scolded him again. āJungwoo wouldnāt do that.ā
āYou seriously think heāll just leave his mate behind?ā
āYou are way too comfortable saying that word.ā
āThis is not about my nighttime proclivities.ā
āIf I told him to, yeah, I think he would. Heās been super respectful, all things considered.ā
āOkayā¦ whateverā¦ā
You were worried. Jungwoo had continued fixing his ship, but with each passing day, you swore he was looking worse again. He said his wounds had completely healed inside and out, but the pallor of his skin didnāt look right, he was moving slower again, and he didnāt eat as much at meals. You took a risk and took him there during the day today, not wanting to risk drawing out his stay on Earth any longer than necessary.
Just getting him down to the ship today was perilous, as he tripped going down the last of the hillside. A rock had cut his arm, thankfully not very deep, but the sight of the deep blue blood did nothing to calm your anxious mind. He let you take a second to use a first aid kit in the ship on him, but then was right back to business as usual, fixing his ship.
āHowās it coming along?ā You asked, hovering over him worriedly as he sat on the floor, working on a panel under the control console.
āItās almost done,ā he informed you quietly.
āJungwoo, you donāt look okay.ā
āIām fine.ā
āIs it the hydrogen? Or something else that you canāt get on Earth?ā You went to press the back of your hand to his forehead. It was sticky with sweat, but simultaneously cold and clammy. āShit, dude, you feel awful.ā
āIāmāIāll be fine.ā
āAre you sure?ā
āYes, I just need to get back to-to Galaria.ā
āOkay, yeah,ā you nodded. āLetās get you back. You said itās almost done. What else do you need?ā
āOne of your friends is a mechanic?ā
āYeah, Yuta. He fixes cars.ā You were slightly alarmed that he apparently couldnāt remember which one.
Jungwoo held out a long, thin black tube to you. āCould you ask him if he has something like this? Twice as long?ā
āOf course! I'll go right now!ā You took the tube from him. āYou stay right here. Rest, okay?ā
He nodded, leaning against the panel and shutting his eyes.
You ran into Yutaās auto shop, skidding to a stop and nearly crashing into a bench and toolbox, drawing the attention of everyone in the shop. Every head whipped over to look at you, and Yuta pushed himself out from under a truck on the far side of the shop.
āYuta!ā You dashed over to him, ignoring the attempts at conversation from his coworkers as you ran by them.
āOff-limits, assholes!ā Yuta yelled back at them before focusing on you again, grabbing a rag to wipe his hands off. āY/N, what are you doing here?ā
āItās Jungwoo, he needs something like this, but double the length.ā You held the tube out to him. āDo you have anything like it? Iāll pay for it.ā
Yuta inspected it with a furrowed brow, and you dropped your voice even lower as the sounds of the auto shop rose again.
āPlease, heās-heās really not doing well. I donāt know how much longer he can be here, Yuta. Something about Earth, itās not good for him. Iām really worried.ā
āYeah, I would be if I were you.ā Yuta handed the tube back to you, then crossed his arms over his chest. āI gave him a part just like that two days ago. He said it was the last piece he needed.ā
āWhat?!ā Your heart fell to the pit of your stomach.
āI gave him a new brake hose two days ago. Unless he blew it up again, this isnāt it.ā
āIāve got to go.ā You took off towards the door of the garage. āBye, Yuta! Thanks!ā
āSee you around!ā

My American dream
āYouāre so Art Deco out on the floor, shining like gunmetal, cold and unsureā
Bill Kaulitz x f!reader
Synopsis: Iām in such a mood right now I just want to write everything that comes to mind. Basically, bill takes a liking to a teen singer that came from America to Germany
Tags: 18+, implied smut, Name is from America, Tom being Tom, kissing, bill is a tease but means well, making fun of American accents, language barrier (this is based before the members spoke fluent English), confusion, reader smokes weed
German in bold
English in italics
- it started with your tour manager saying you should consider going to another country to gain more popularity
- you believed it was a good idea and could benefit your career so you agreed, easy enough right?
- you were wrongā¦so so wrongš
- Communication was ROUGH
- Your team had to rent out a whole car because talking with transportation workers was too difficult for everyone without a translator
- Your managers were definitely getting gray hairs because of you
- When the day of the interview came, your manager surprised you last minute saying you would be collaborating with a popular German band in the interview
- It was a good idea essentially
- Rising teen artists from two different countries hanging out would cause some attention
- But both parties couldnāt even speak to each other so it was a wreck for everyone up until the interview finally started
- you rambled about how excited you were to your makeup artist and you swear he pressed down on your eye extra hard while applying the makeup just to get you to shut up
- When the interview started and you settled into your seat you took time to look at all 4 of the members
- You looked for who your manager had described as the main vocalist of the group and he easily caught your eye
- The same could be said about you
- Bill noticed when you walked out that your styles were similar and he was mesmerized
- you saw the way he was eyeing you up and down while the other band members were answering questions
- āheās definitely judging me rnā
- In a wayā¦but he was just checking you out don't worry
- the interviewer decided you should all play a game of charades between languages and see who wins
- And with his luck he had gotten partnered up with you
- While you were so excited to be partnered up with another lead singer, he was shaking in his skinny jeansš
- he was also very happy he just got a little nervous because he had to speak English which he wasnāt completely confident in
- He sat with you on the cramped sofa and tried to introduce himself to you
- āI'm Bill, itās nice to finally meet you! Iāve heard some of your songsā
- You stared at him with the stupidest look of your face
- Bill:š you:š
- āOh I didnāt know the game started alreadyā
- It was so awkward for the first few minutes that the translator had to come help you guys out out of her own secondhand embarrassment
- But once you properly introduced yourselves you were able to ātalkā with each other so easily
- the convos flowed so naturally between you two that fans started to get jealousš¤
- half way through the game he was trying to help you understand a German word and saw you had gotten extremely close to him
- When he noticed he went dead silent and went as still as a statue, fans swore he turned into concrete and you were just 3 inches away from his face like-
- āWhyād you stop? I almost had it.ā¹ļøā
- there was so many urges he was holding back on when he was near you
- was staring at your lips the whole time but played it off as learning the pronunciation of the word you were saying when you asked him
- everyone noticed how he was looking at you, and how he touched you even when there was no need
- You guys both had undeniable chemistry with one another
- the band teased bill on how quick he cozied up next to you during the game
- Tom dry humping the air and George pretending to make out with Gustav to embarrass Bill and heās just there likeā¦
- š§āand thatās why Iām leavingā
- He would go off to find you and complain abt how annoying they were as you both munched on some snacks until the break ended
- He would always giggle when you spoke and you thought he was making fun of you
- He kinda was in his mind but he mostly just loved the way you sounded and when you tried to speak German it made him all giddy for some reason
- couldnāt contain himself around you he was always laughing at your jokes and smiling so hard when you talked to him and he himself didnāt even know why
- wouldnāt stop complimenting you because he loved how happy you got when he did
- always positioned himself so he was touching you in someway be it your thighs being smushed against his when sitting down or his arm slung over the sofa to play with you hair
- sat with you even after the game was over not caring how his band mates were snickering at him
- he loves your accent itās his new favorite thing
- you always caught him staring into your soul while you were speaking with the interviewer (he doesnāt know how mean he looks pls forgive him)
- fans got butterflies on how he would just randomly stare at you for a few minutes before looking back at whoever was talking
- Tom said you looked like a tomato the whole time and wouldnāt stop making fun of you and bill had to smack some sense into him (literally) to get him to stop
- during the middle of the interview some random questions were asked and he saw how quick you got weirded out
- was annoyed the rest of the time, he was sitting there giving the interviewer the biggest stank eye ever while talking to you
- Heās good at making ppl look stupid I just know it
- The interviewer would ask him something and heād be like āIdk, what do you think?šā
- his manager had to tell him to get his act together bc ppl were starting to noticeš
- when the interview ended you made your way out to the balcony to relax before you had to leave to the hotel
- You didnāt notice Bill had rushed off to follow you until you heard the emergency exit door being pushed open
- he looked around the small balcony until he spotted you
- His face lit up when he saw you š to -> š
- he waved as he jogged over to you
- he tried to apologize for the questions but it came out more in German than English but you understood
- You smiled and looked up at him with heavy eyes before puffing some smoke out of your nose and telling him it was āwhateverā
- He was practically drooling over you he thought you looked so pretty
- the way your eyes looked with that lazy smile on your face was doing something for him
- But he just smiled like he understood what you said before grabbing the blunt from you and taking a drag
- He coughed
- so much
- it was nighttime and dark so he thought it was a cigarette and quickly found out it wasnāt
- āyou, okay?ā
- āJa! šā (Heās not okay)
- it was fine though you both laughed and made fun of the incident after
- he was basically caging you between the chain fence with his body (Iām going crazy) without noticing
- When he finally did the blunt was dying down and you were gazing at the stars while he gazed down at you
- āI wanna kiss you so bad right nowā
- you just stared at him with the sweetest smile heās ever seen because you didnāt understand what he was saying
- if you knew the things you did to him oh my god
- before you put out the joint you shot gunned some smoke into his lips and that seemed to finally pushed him over the edge
- when he kissed you he tried to be slow n soft but it escalated quickly bc he has no self control with you
- heās a lightweight and was so out of it, eyes droopy and everything
- so noisy with it to, gasping into your lips the whole time when your fingers even slightly grazed his skin
- had his hands tangled in the fence and his knee pushed up inbetween your legs to rub against you
- rutting himself into your thigh while making out (dudeās starved)
- since he was so much taller he was basically hunching over to reach you
- everywhere you touched all you could feel was him and it made you so dizzy
- whined into you neck the whole time, he couldnāt get enough of you, wanted all his senses to be filled up with you
- āWant you, needā¦need you. Need to feel all of youā
āName please- need you now, please Iāll be goodā
- makes his brain all fuzzy and he canāt think when you kiss him
- gets out of breath so fast bc heās so overstimulated but doesnāt wanna stop so it leads to him panting like a dog in heat
- heās never had it so bad for someone like he had it for you
- grins into the kiss when you notice his tongue piercing
- you had your arms around his neck to bring him down to your level and played with a hair for a second and his eyes rolled back and he let out the most pornographic moan youāve ever heard and had no shame abt it
- kept doing it when he noticed how heated you got from it
- forgets how to function when making out w/ you
- got a little to frisky and you had to stop him before you went to far and risked being caught
- your manager was so frustrated with you both when he found out but you both just giggled and ran off to go do it again
- if you googled ādumb teens in loveā you two would show up as the definition
- you hung out with him and the other three the rest of the time you were in Germany
- you and Tom scare him all the time and heās so extra abt it
- Screams, then gasps for air, and then pats down his body to make sure he didnāt ascend before glaring at you both and throwing whateverās nearest to him at you
- the media loves you guys together
- some thought the relationship was fake because you guys were just that couple
- He helps you learn German and you help him learn English
- literally started bawling into your neck when you had to leave a few weeks later
- whined abt how you should ājust move in with him bc itād be easierā
- travels to America lots but mostly pays for you to come out to Germany because he thinks itās easier
- always calling and texting each other when your both free
- go to each others concerts to support one another (so cute!)
- so many pictures of one of you at the others concerts cheering for them in the crowd

i genuinely cant comprehend the fact that people like and enjoy total forgiveness. i watched it for the first time a few months ago and my stomach literally hurt the entire time and i criedš iāve literally never felt that way watching a show before, it was like genuinely hard for me to finish and i felt so bad the whole time (ik i couldāve stopped watching but by the time it got super bad i was already halfway through and i dont like leaving things half finished <//3). this is definitely a personal thing iām not like judging people who like the show i just dont understand what someone would enjoy about it because it was the worst iāve ever felt watching a show before
I definitely think it's the same energy as loving the tragedy genre. Hurts a lot more if you have a high sense of empathy, secondhand embarrassment and all that.

Lyney and Lynette outfits with Freminet is my most favourite aesthetic, thinking about wearing Lyneyās hat and cape, imitating him. Getting secondhand embarrassment when the two youngest find you. I think his the type to tickle s/o, but turns out heās more ticklish. Iām also like imagining that Lyney will show you a private mini magic show and looking at his burst from the leaks, turns himself into a grimalkin cat (did I spell that right?) and boo! He surprises you. (If this request is too much, ignore, I donāt want to bother you with my rambling, remember to take care of yourself)
I don't think of brainrots/ideas/etc as a request, it's just another ask to me :] but if you want to make a request on Lyney or Freminet, you can leave one in my inbox, but i'll only write it after they release so I can get the characterization somewhat right! But I'll ramble on my thoughts about them and listen to yours ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
but anyways, the first one is so ADORABLE. Imagine making them promise not to tell Lyney about it, so whenever he's looking for his cape and hat they both give each other side eyes like (>.>) (<.<) and stutter out they have no idea and run off. It's so obvious that they're lying though, and their glances to your room gave it away so he goes to ask you about it. What's all the fuss about anyway? It can't be that bad right? Well, if you consider him peeking and witnessing you poorly preform magic tricks for an audience of stuff animals bad, then yeah, it's pretty bad. BUT THE WAY HE SMILES, adoration in his eyes as he leans in the doorway, watching the rest of the show. And as you take a bow he claps, throwing flowers if he could, and your eyes immediately snap up, shock, horror, and embarrassment hitting you all at once.
He'll praise you for your 'stunning performance' and ask for an encore as you throw his hat at him (he catches it) and try to escape. He only laughs and teases you a little more, but really he's just marveling at how beautiful you look in his clothes/costume.
And HEAVY on the ticklish part, that's one of his biggest weaknesses and you convince Lynette to help you hold him down so he wouldn't magically disappear, while you ambush him with tickles. He calls his brother Freminet for help, reaching out desperately in a fit of giggles, but Freminet just blinks, plops on his helmet, and walks away. ( or just pretends he's not even there, he's a hallucinationš ) He knows he's next if he intervenes, he gotta put him first!!
Ah but imagine it's a little chilly and Lyney holds out a part of his cape to you, inviting you to warm up with him like he's 'taking you under his wing'. And he wraps his arms and cape around you and the two of you cuddle HN5'YUhnY;p;UAop/
I GOT CARRIED AWAY
ugh he's so sjdekmjr i can't even express how much I love him already

What was your fave mission/arc in SRTT?
hmm i think generally any mission or story beat that had to do w the morningstar were, for the most part, pretty solid. might be a lil bias bc the morningstar are by far my favorite gang from srtt but i think they generally had the most cohesive and engaging moments. āHit the Powder Roomā is fun if not a lil basic but i wish we actually got to stay in Powder and explore it afterwards. like it is our stronghold now so letās have it enterable permanently. āThe Belgian Problemā is solid. definitely a few standouts from the other two, āLive! With Killbaneā and āhttps://deckers.dieā immediately comes to mind, even if i think the premise of the latter isā¦ā¦a little much, the gameplay is a lot of fun.
ACTUALLY as iām typing this out i think my absolute favorite mission from srtt is āNyte Blaydeās Return.ā i loveeee when sr gives you the chance to play missions a few different ways especially if it involves being disguised. bc you can sneak around or you can go in guns blazing. itās a lot of fun, and i like viola and the boss dressing up. definitely a highlight of the game. i wish there were more moments like it.
honestly i base a lot of these off of 1) is it actually fun to play and 2) do i like the story implications/ideas/etc. as with my general feelings on srtt, a lot of it is just āreally interesting ideas brought up, decent-to-bad executionāš also the actual murderbrawl fight is pretty great too even if angelās whole thing gives me secondhand embarrassment. you spent how many years training for this moment only to get your ass beat immediately like. i know killbaneās roided out but. come on man.
#and yet i canāt hate herā¦ā¦.me and srtt and the divorce/passionate love affair we have#asks#anon

THE DRAGON PRINCE SEASON 5 SPOILERS
So... my thoughts on season 5!!
Episode 1: Domina Profundis
- so I'm assuming Callum and Rayla talked after the events of Escape From Umber Tor because I expected them to be still a little awkward but they're not, it looks like they're friends again and that makes me so happy!!
- why does Rayla need to take off the nails on the painting in front of the secret passageway? Can't Stella just make a portal to the other side of it?
- okay I hate Karim but did the sunfire elf guard really have to take his ring? I think Janai would've let him keep it. And the guard was like "it belongs to Queen Janai now" and then proceeded to drop it on the ground. Wtf bro
- Opeli telling Callum why Rayla was arrested and Callum being like "okay, so what?" will never not be funny to me
- Callum really said "it's okay she just got too silly"
Episode 2: Old Wounds
- their little conversation about trust... they're healing their relationship YIPPEE
- domina profundis looks so fucking cool I wish we saw more of her
- I now expect to see Barius invent a new pastry every season from here on out.
- CALLUM DOING PUPPY DOG EYES AT RAYLA GAVE ME SO MUCH SEROTONIN
- watching Soren, Ezran and Corvus laughing about shit jokes did give me slight secondhand embarrassment but surprisingly it was kind of funny. Definitely an upgrade from the god-awful fart jokes in season 4
- THIS IS ONLY EPISODE 2 AND ALREADY THEY'RE GOING HAM WITH THE RAYLLUM CONTENT. THEY SPENT THE NIGHT AT A COZY INN TOGETHER. AND THE BANTER BETWEEN THEM AFTERWARDS IS SO CUTE. ugh yes s5ep2 "Old Wounds" my beloved (Actually I love the whole first 4 episodes but we'll get to that later)
- "I know dark magic created this place, but it's a bridge between our two worlds, and now here we are, crossing it together" I'm screaming.
- the banther chase was so cool! I love the battle duo dynamic Rayla and Callum have going on, and the way the banther was animated looked awesome. (Also I find it hilarious how when Rayla's arrow hit the Banther, it literally got right back up but it was like "actually, fuck this" and just dipped)
- Viren's dream sequence with baby Soren ripped my heart out
Episode 3: Nightmares And Revelations
- Ezran literally befriended the entire dragon population except Sol Regem, Rex Igneous, and the archdragon of stars (if there is one) (no moon archdragon I'm pretty sure? Because the last one was Luna Tenebris and she died) and I love that for him
- Callum's reaction to finding out Amaya and Janai are engaged was priceless. I was so excitedly waiting to see that and it was everything I'd hoped for.
- THIS WHOLE CONVERSATION
They really said "Wanna do something foolish?" "Do you even have to ask?"
Episode 4: The Great Bookery
- Kazi you nerd I love you
- Amaya being the best aunt!!
- UGH THE RAYLLUM MONTAGE
- MMM YES CALLUM AND KAZI THE BOOKWORM DUO
- "I would do anything for you" oh. my. god.
- THIS WAS SO FUNNY
- BANTHER FIGHT BANTHER FIGHT BANTHER FIGHT
"Rayla, I was wrong. I waited too long. I hope you know--" "I know." UHM, I DON'T? WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT? (I'm guessing this is them saying "I love you" without saying it but I NEED TO KNOW FOR CERTAIN)
- The only reason Amaya and Corvus survived is because they hid in the book drop and Amaya thought to do that because Kazi pointed it out earlier so basically Kazi saved their lives. Good job Kazi.
- question: how the fuck did a fall from that height NOT kill Corvus? I'm glad he's not dead but HOW?
Episode 5: Archmage Akiyu
- "Oh no... You're making me the deciding vote, aren't you" Imao š
- Terry is such a good boyfriend.
- everyone's faces when the giant birds swoop down at them
I AM CACKLING
- Callum fistbumping Rayla... I will cherish this forever.
- Rayla asking Callum to push her into the water because she doesn't have the courage to jump in herself, Callum holding her hand as they dive in together instead... oh I'm sick. He's so patient and sweet and gentle with her I'm gonna cry
- the sheer amount of rayllum hand touches we're getting this season is incredibly satisfying
- Tidebound Tina/Archmage Akiyu is so silly. I like her a normal amount
- IT'S KIM'DAEL!!
Episode 6: Bait And Switch
- let Soren have the best lavender essential oils in all of Scumport he deserves it
- when Ezran goes to see Finnegrin and Callum stays outside and he says "it's fine I'll just get to know my new friend here" and Elmer says they aren't friends, Callum lets out this little giggle and it's the cutest thing. FOR WHAT? LITERALLY FOR WHAT
- I'm conflicted about Claudia fighting the dragon. I mean, slay, but also... I'm scared š
- BABY GLOW TOADS!!
Episode 7: Sea Legs
- I need to know what Bait said when he grunted and Ezran said "that's not very nice, Bait"
- "baby mage" Nyx I'm gonna have to stop you right there because I will not tolerate this falsehood and this slander towards my boy Callum
- I love how when the baby glow toad fell overboard, Nyx was like "I'll get it" and Callum was like "no I'll get it" and then there's Soren, who hollers "SORENBALL!" and just yeets himself in.
- Callum carrying the episode with his sky magic ugh yes (partially Soren too, for saving the baby glow toad, and Villads bc of course he's a great captain and the squad couldn't do this without him, but Callum is slaying I'm so proud of him)
- Amaya finding out Kim'Dael took Janai may have broken my heart just a little
Episode 8: Finnegrin's Wake
- IT'S CALLUM IN THE INTRO INSTEAD OF VIREN OH FUCK
- please excuse my excessive use of "fuck"
- they hurt my boy ā¹ļø
- "I'm not gonna help you murder the archdragon of the ocean" "Murder? When you put it like that you make me sound like a bloodthirsty fiend" YOU LITERALLY ARE š
- Rayla screaming at Finnegrin to let Callum go when she sees that Callum got beat up... the pre-s5 speculation fanfic writers are probably losing their shit rn
- THIS IS MY FAVORITE SCENE IN THE WHOLE FUCKING SHOW. OH MY GOD.
I have never seen anyone more angry at any point in the entirety of this show than Callum is in this scene. He's been angry before, but rarely, and when he does, he remains level-headed. But then Finnegrin starts torturing Rayla, and that's what sets him off. And seeing a character like him, who's always been so sweet and gentle and kind, going absolutely fucking feral because someone hurt his loved one, is so satisfying to me. He loves her so much, the worst thing to him is seeing her suffering. I'm going insane over this.
- HE FUCKING UNLOCKED THE OCEAN ARCANUM. I'M SO PROUD OF HIM
- remember when he told Rayla "I'd do anything for you"? Yeah... (I'm totally writing a fanfic about this)
- if you couldn't tell, I fucking love Callum (this is probably the hundredth time I've said this)
Episode 9: Infantis Sanguine
- Callum looks so pretty here. He always looks pretty but MY GOD
- I'm gonna cry. The way he looks at Rayla like "Hey it's okay I'm right here with you :)" has me in a chokehold
- Rayla getting scared about being underwater and swimming back up to the surface and Callum immediately going after her to see if she was okay... no one fucking touch me
- I had no problem with Claudia at the start of the underwater fight but then she threatened Ezran and I was like "sweetie I can't defend you anymore"
- bruh they couldn't talk underwater anyway so what the fuck was the point of threatening Ezran to make him talk?
- I know it's a fantasy cartoon and the logic doesn't matter but RAYLA SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SHOOT THOSE ARROWS SO PERFECTLY WHILE UNDERWATER.
- Aaravos has been in ONE EPISODE this season and nearly every speaking line he has is so sus
- I always hated Viren because him manipulating and gaslighting his kids reminded me of my dad who I haven't spoken to for 3 years now, and I've had to accept that he's never going to change, but I'm glad Viren has changed and I'm proud of him
- so... Viren dead? Viren not dead? Fuck if I know! Find out in 8 months!
okay, my final ranking of all the seasons so far: this one comes out on top, then below it is season 3, then season 2, and at the bottom, season 1 and 4 are tied. And I'm so excited for season 6. Thank you and goodnight.

āfeebly ask on dateā and āask completely inappropriate questionā for the. sims prompts thingy
THANK GOD YOU ASKED THE ONES I WANTED THE MOST š„šš BRAIN CONNECTION doing the first one first and the second one uhhh second but Iāll make a separate post for it :]] (as usual, if you see any typos or mistakes, no you didnāt š)
Feebly Ask on a Date
There was a fetid little crush beginning to fester in Normanās heart.
He didnāt think it was possible to fall so strongly for another person like this, especially for someone as rebellious as you. Mother didnāt like troublemakers, and Norman knew better than to develop feelings for passing strangers.
But knowing better didnāt always mean following Motherās expectations. His urges were difficult to control, as were those undeniable, blossoming revelations of love beginning to bubble up inside of him.
He couldnāt bare it. The very thought of you made his heart race so fast that he could hardly stand upright. It was so nauseating in fact, that he couldnāt even spy on you anymore without feeling faint. He was the definition of lovesick. He wanted to be with you, absolutely he wanted to - butā¦ he couldnāt quite overcome those awful nerves...
Regardless, his obsession was growing fast. He didnāt want you to leave, ever. He would find a way to make you stay somehow. If he couldnāt, well, he would cross that bridge when he got to it ā if it came down to that.
In the meantime, Norman had to build up his courage. He couldnāt very well ask you to be with him if he couldnāt even bare to see you.
He spent the afternoons upstairs in his bedroom, pacing back and forth and practicing his romantic proposals on the only friend willing to put up with his antics ā his stuffed rabbit.
āItās a nice day, isnāt it?ā He stuttered. āW-Would you want to, um-ā¦ No, I can do better, let me try again.ā
Heād been trying over and over to figure out what to say. He wanted to get it perfect, so that there would be no room for rejection. His confidence was paper thin, but he was sure that there was a strong, assertive version of himself in there somewhere. He just had to release it.
Norman turned away and counted to ten in his head. When he turned back around, he planted both hands firmly on the bed and leaned in close.
āDo you wanna have dinner with me?ā He leered as seductively as he could, whispering right into the flopped ear of his rabbit.
The rabbit slumped down, dragged by the gravitational pull of secondhand embarrassment.
Ugh.
He smacked his hands over his face in a red flush of humiliation, and shot off to the other side of the room to pace feverishly. He couldnāt hold back his groans, horrified by the sound of his own awkward, terribly unsexy voice.
This wasnāt going to work.
āGod,ā he lamented, sitting on the edge of his bed. āWhat am I thinking?ā
He held his head in his hands. He laid down onto his side and looked into the black, glassy eyes of his stuffed companion.
āIām not ready for this, am I?ā
The rabbitās eyes glinted with sympathy in the light of the lowering sun.
āDāyou think I might be worrying too much?ā Norman questioned, before smiling weakly. āMaybeā¦ youāre right. Maybe I should just go for it.ā
He nodded to himself bravely.
āDo you think I can do it?ā
His rabbit didnāt move or speak, but itās solemn little face gave Norman a glimmer of hope.
He could do it.
Before he had even registered what heād done, he was standing outside of your cabin door, having just knocked it with excitable vigour. He brushed down his sweater with nervous hands, and fixed the collar on his shirt.
He waited for you to open the door, his heart thumping like mad. He could hear your footsteps approaching, and the handle rattled. Norman wrung his hands together fretfully, saying nothing as you opened the door to him with a surprised smile.
āEvening, Norman.ā You grinned, leaning into the door frame. āWhereāve you been? I feel like I havenāt seen you in days.ā
Norman looked down at the decking. The floorboards seemed so far away. He felt himself swaying like a skyscraper in a storm. His breath was held tightly, and he had to close his throat to stop himself from being sick all over his shoes.
He didnāt want to do this anymore.
Heād built himself up back in the house. Heād mustered up so much courage to march out here and knock on your door. But now that he was here in front of your cabin, in front of you, Normanās head began to spin so fast he feared that it might twist right off. He couldnāt look at you, he couldnāt speak.
He had to get out of here, back to the house before he fainted.
āWhy donāt you come in?ā You said, before he had the chance to flee.
He looked at you then, eyes bordering on wild. His mouth was dry, and when his lips parted to speak, nothing came out besides a hiccuped stutter. He clenched his jaw shut and shook his head, swallowing feverishly in the hopes it would wrench his voice free.
You watched him curiously, amused by his strange behaviour. You gestured wordlessly with your arm to invite Norman inside again, but he didnāt move. It was as though he were glued stuck to the decking.
Norman knew he couldnāt run away now without looking like the biggest fool in the world, but he couldnāt do this. He couldnāt. What was he thinking? He had to get away right now, he had to, heā
āHi.ā He choked out.
What the hell was he doing now?
āHi, Norman.ā You said back in a slow, curious voice. āDid you need something?ā
There was a little, amused smirk on your lips. He didnāt know whether to be assured by it or offended.
āUmā¦ S-Sorry for uh, bothering you like this.ā He muttered.
His hands were shaking like crazy, and he tried to squeeze them tightly to each other to make the shaking stop.
āOh, thatās alright.ā You reassure him. āI wasnāt doing anything anyway. Itās good to see you.ā
You were happy to see him? Oh, God.
āReally? Oh, well thatāsā¦ thatās great.ā
A long beat of silence passed before Norman thought to speak again.
āWell, I just t-thought I should come and ask if you were free later, and m-m-maybe if you wanted to eat. If you wanted to eat dinner, I mean. Because I was-ā¦ I was thinking of making some d-dinner, and I wanted to know if you wanted to uh, ohā¦ā
No, that wasnāt good enough.
āuh, no, sorry- I um, if you had some spareā¦ some spare time-ā¦ someā¦ā
Youāve fucked it up, havenāt you?
His head was pounding now. He was going to pass out if he didnāt find a way to ground himself quickly.
You seemed to notice his unsteadiness, and before you could ask him what was the matter, his legs were suddenly giving out beneath him.
Before he could drop to the ground, you caught his lanky form tightly in your arms, and slowly lowered him to rest against the outer wall of the cabin. He stayed there, dazed and lightheaded, while you patted his cheek and tried to snap him out of it.
You tended to him for a while with a wet cloth on his forehead, and slowly helped him sip down a glass of water to soothe his dry throat. Once he was sufficiently calmed, you sat beside him, and the two of you looking out towards the low sunset on the horizon of the highway.
The crickets chirped away in the distance. The birds flocked across the purpling sky to roost in the sparse trees. The desert road that had been baking in the sun all day smelled sweetly of tarmac and dust.
Normanās chest wasnāt thrumming with anxiety anymore, not now that your shoulders were pressed together, and your hand was lazily placed atop his. He turned to look at you, but you were still gazing off pensively at the thin red line of sun.
āHello.ā He said without stuttering.
Letās try this again.
āHi, Norman.ā You smiled. āYou wanted to ask me something?ā
Yes.
He nodded with a gentle smile, and pondered his next move. Your thumb stroked the back of his hand affectionately. The fading sunlight still lingered in the warmth of your eyes.
He could do it.
He rested his cheek on your shoulder and you leaned into him, closing your eyes and feeling a gentle blush creep onto your face. His free hand loosely tangled itself into the fabric of your button-up.
āWould you like to have dinner with me tonight?ā
You let out a relieved laugh and nodded.
āAbsolutely.ā
You let out a relieved laugh and nodded.
āAbsolutely.ā

a funny thing- ch 24/25 word dump
WUAHAHAHA 4AM BABEY YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS
iāve been cookin low and slow with this one and i mean real slow like. too slow . as in 2 weeks later whoops
this oneās a real doozy so grab a snack
FIRST PAGE ON THE GOSUKU TAG WHEN YOU SORT BY KUDOS LETS GOOOOOOO major rweiser W
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
ch 24
thinking abt yuuji flying down the sidewalk and megumi becoming the equivalent of a flag whipping behind him pls yuuji not everyone can keep upĀ š
fred says fuck
mmmmmm crunchy cookies i love me some egg shell
yeah with cooking, you can play around with the measurements and adjust along the way, but baking is whole different beast :[ i made creme brulee for our new year dinner, my first time baking actually, and i was terrified the entire process cus one wrong step and its over (they turned out good in the end, though i wanted to leave it in the fridge longer)Ā
sukuna and uraume on the same wavelength love that
daww megumi just be a kid its okayĀ
gojoās nicknames for toji PLS father-fushi and fraidy-guro
hehehe he technically called sukuna pretty ,, i agree
LMAOOOOO AINT NO WAYY OFC HE SABOTAGED HIMĀ
i feel like toji would actually do well in getting sales (if he had the proper cookies) considering heās āa pro at freeloading off womenā which leads me to believe heās got hella charisma .Ā
āFushiguro stops just before the table, one hand balled into a fist so tight, the muscles of his arm are easy to see, flexing dangerously beneath his skin.ā uwwheheheerhfbud sorry
OH SHT THE GIRLIES ARE FIGHTING YOOOOOOOO AND SUKUNA JUMPING IN FOR GOJO ???? in front of the kids in a school fundraiser is crazy lmao
pinky
gojo taking bets on whoās gonna win reminded me of mei mei betting on the gojo-sukuna fight
i had a crazy amount of secondhand embarrassment going thru that hhhhhh yknow that feeling when you just wanna curl up and cover ur eyes and youāre fighting to even look back ? yeaaaaa
āHurting people is bad. And youāre not bad!ā ohh yuuji ughhh he has no idea of what sukuna was before, that heās done more than hurt people .. children really only see the side of their parents that theyāve allowed to show them. itās why kids usually think the highest of them, so yuuji saying that sukunaās not bad gets me cus heās known and seen only the best of him. but it makes me feel gooey inside cus, while everyone else sees the former king of curses, yuuji sees his dad and when he does eventually find out, heāll still always be his dad before anything else (does this make sense i hope it makes sense im trying to make my thoughts coherent)
oh hey theyāre talking abt it !
I GASPED OH MY GOD PLEAS EOLASOE APLEAS EPLAS EPALEAPSLEAPSH NOOOOOOOOO FFGGHGBBVV HITTING MY BED GRFGHJVNGRRAAGGHHFEG
im being tortured i thinj youāre trying to kill me here this is the worst case of edging ive ever had in my life (no not like that)Ā
post-chapter notes:
IM ALREAYD RIOTING YASTOP BLUE BALLING ME
id read real housewives of jujutsu sorcery
āāāāāāāāāāāā
ch 25
GRADE 1 ?? AS IN ONE ?? AS INĀ Ā O N EĀ ?? AS IN, YUUJI IS NO LONGER A PRESCHOOLER
when you said small time-skip, i thought you meant a few months later . i was wrong
aight time to update the time board: yuujiās in first grade so heās 6 yrs old, weāre in 2013 now (i think), gojo isĀ 24 yrs oldĀ 23 yrs old (chap takes place during summer, bday not passed yet)
itās 2013, he can get a 3ds now :D im gonna get him on smash bros . OR KID ICARUS UPRISING IT SHOULD BE OUT ALREADY
they should totally name the potential pet after me (jk)
OKAYYYY THATS A START HE KISSED HIM ON THE HEAD !! WEāRE GETTING SOMEWHERE :O now go lower. preferably on the li
oh yeah yeah definitely not together whatever helps you sleep at night man
im gonna need the bad bitches birthday bash one-shot someday with the way shokoās bringing it up
the fact gojoās heard the threat so many times before that he can finish it and brush it off
CANDY CRUSHĀ Ā !!?!??
AWWWWWW THATS ADORABLE ;____; sukuna wanting to do something to surprise gojoās first day as a teacher and yuuji suggesting to make a cake cus he knows his daddy loves sweets AND they spent the whole day prepping awawawawaw so cutee
they called on uraume for help too LOL poor themĀ
yuuji being a snitch HA i canāt help but think of my siblings
you canāt be serious gojo, not after that? people also donāt usually sleep and cuddle the homies cmon man
mother is mothering and mother is leading the herd (no but i love how he adapted to the role very easily, likely to prior experience)
whuh the fundraiser was last year ? am i overthinking the timeframe ā¦ ok im back after going thru the calendar that makes senseĀ šĀ carry on wait hold on first semester of first grade ended so theyāre on break ... summer break ?? unless this is going off of a different schooling system (oh yeah duh japan lol)
ohhh please let them meet mama-guro i can imagine the absolute shock on their faces trying to comprehend how someone like toji managed to marry someone like herĀ šĀ bonus points if toji is much more softer around her too and the sheer whiplash of seeing him having ANY sort of loving side is enough to send gosuku into a spiral
āItās exactly the type of thing Sukuna would never be caughtĀ deadĀ wearing, which means Satoru must do all in his near-infinite power to make him wear it.ā real
THESE THREE ARE RIDICULOUS LMAOOOOOO sorry kids your fathers are busy trying to one-up each other
āBut, then again, these are justĀ go-karts; how much damage could heĀ reallyĀ do?ā famous last words before disaster
oh no
hey sukunaās living life at least heās having fun and thatās all that mattersĀ š„°
not the pyramid projectiles
CONICAL AMMO !?$&7)-)26 MARIO KART IRL GONE WRONG oh my god its too late for this i need to sleep
OH MY GOD ??????Ā
WHADDYA MEAN THEYāRE GONE ??????

what just happened
no really what jusr happened
the amount of times iāve said oh my god throughout the entire go-kart scene i was clutching my pearls
he recreates his reign in the silliest ways, all while wearing nice little red bow :3
nah i get it the entire first arc was dedicated to how messed up he was abt suguru so i understand the doubts but theyāve also near kissed multiple times .. unless they were super down with kissing the homiesĀ
āI sure hope nothing bad has happened to them...ā STOP
#i spent a good chunk of time trying to figure out the time frame help#i was thoroughly entertained throughout ch 25#AYE BUT GO-KARTING IS AN EXTREME COMPETITIVE SPORT THO#mario kart can bring out the worst in ppl#ok sleepinfh now gn#a funny thing happened on the way to therapy#for weiserr#laiās word dump n thoughts#jujutsu kaisen#jjk#gosuku#sukugo

Day 8 - Are there any scenes (or even full episodes) that you canāt stand? If yes, and you could go back in time and rewrite them, how would you fix them?
LITERALLY HAD TO PUT THIS UNDER THE CUT TOO BC ITS SO LONG FJSDHFKJSDFHKDSJFHKDSJDSHFSDKJFHK I HATE THIS FUCKING SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ā
im not gonna rlly propose fix-its, i just like to bitch. haha. anyway, in no particular orderā¦
the owen & jack jail scene in dmw. itās sooo frustratingly underwhelming. they had the perfect chance to explore some really interesting stuff with jack + his relationship with his immortality, and to explore the parallels drawn between the two of them, and jack suddenly having someone who might also "live" forever to keep him companyā¦ and then they Didnāt. itās suuuch a let down. and the first half of that scene being ālight-heartedā and gross is so irritating and disrespectful to owen. absolutely the wrong tone.Ā that ep pisses me tf off.
i have a lot of issues with owen & jackās relationship in general. in aditd, when owen tries to drown himself + finds he canāt, and jackās reaction is to 1) throw a soulless flirty line at him, and 2) ask him āhow long heās gonna do this forā... that scene bugs the fuck out of me. like what the fuck. what a monstrous way to react to someone whoās suicidal. and iād like it if the show ever bothered to explore why jack seems to view owenās suicidality with such disdain (because itās a consistent thing; heās also callous in combat), like that could also provide insight into his character - but they donāt! ugh! so it just makes him look like a fucking dick and makes me resent him. especially when heās a lot more sympathetic to john in out of time. like why is he so nasty to owen in particular. fuck knows, they donāt bother touching on it. missed opportunities!!!
and, returning to the way dmw treats owen, i hateeee how heās treated once heās dead, by the characters AND the writers. everyone on the team is cruel towards him during his undead arc. they warm up again to him later, but the show itself decides heās no longer relevant after that + seems to act like all his angst went away and heās fine again. torchwood SUCKS at emotional continuity. the only time it comes up is that they REPEATEDLY have the antagonist of the episode make a point to remind owen + the viewers how pathetic and useless he is now that heās dead (the nostravite + the ghostmaker both do it). and itās just.. corny, and disrespectful, like come on.
actually dead man walking as a whole... i just hate that episode. i talked about it more here, itās justā¦.. ridiculous, and bad, and embarrassing š i had to skip the fucking fight scene at the end i didnāt have the strength i get secondhand embarrassment too easily HFDJKSHFKDJS. the concept isnāt terrible itās the fucking execution its soooā¦ idek how iād fix that mess. i donāt like it. blegh. and like i said, tw does emotional continuity so poorly, like i donāt really have a question i can fully bitch about this on (well? maybe. weāll see) but the way they go through significant traumas every ep and the emotional weight of those events is never touched on in the following eps... like the shit in dmw wouldāve been a lot for owen to deal with but by aditd heās got other problems. itās justā¦ ugh.
and if dmw is the second worst use of bad cgi, we must talk about the firstā¦ abaddon. i love end of days so fucking much, the interpersonal shit going on between the team is FASCINATING and so good, the mutiny scene is so good, them all being haunted by their past (aka the events of the past 12 episodes) is so good, for torchwood itās a GOOD episode - and then thereās this fucking ridiculously embarassing terrible monster from the depths of hell stomping everywhere and roaring and i literally cannot describe how hard i was laughing when i first watched that ep. genuinely hysterical. especially after getting gut-punched like thirty times throughout the rest. and whatever jack did to defeat it... so fucking bad. SO fucking bad. idk what the fuck that was but it was a MESS. and the worst possible way to wrap up the āsomethingās coming out of the darkness O.Oā bullshit (which, they didnāt, that continued into owenās arc, like cmonā¦) it was just a shit show. see itās hard for me to hypothesize about how they coulda fixed that bc itās so bad but itās kind of iconic. im kind of glad itās there bc itās justā¦ torchwood wouldnāt be torchwood if it wasnāt fucking awful. but also. shudders.
ok ok i swear ill stop complaining abt owen-specific shit but ofc thts what i take most issue with, and a lot of my complaints abt the others are less about specific scenes and more generalized things, so ill talk about them when i talk about their charactersā¦ ill talk about this more in owenās section, but i haveā¦ problems with the end of days ending, with the hugs. i like that scene a lot, the connotations are fascinating, but the way owen and jack are framed in it isā¦. eughā¦. and most people miss the fact that itās āeughā? a lot of people see it as a sweet scene and thatāsā¦ oofā¦ again iāll get into it more later but i wish it was framed differently. torchwood could never make up itās mind on how it saw the characters, lmao.
adjacent subjectā¦ the way jackās return is framed. i HATE the way they just bounce back to normal once jack comes back. like, him leaving wouldāve been fucking traumatizing. and the show doesnāt properly give closure to any of them. (it does a tiny bit to gwen + ianto, but likeā¦ owenās abandonment issues are a consistent theme in the show, esp s1. his ādid he fix you?ā line is unnecessarily sooo heartbreaking. what do you mean ur not gonna give a single moment to those two. Okay.) tbh a lot of these complaints are about the fact that i desperately wish torchwood was a show that cared about the emotions + mental health of their characters when it simply Is Not. tw is, regrettably, not the character-focused show it should be. and i hate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a few last owen specific thingsā¦. i hate the owen growling at the weevil scene in combat. like what was the deal with that. they donāt rlly explain it in the commentary either itās just. ?? but again itās one of those things thts like. i canāt imagine a world where this show was actually good + didnāt have random weird cringe shit sprinkled in HFKSDJF itās part of the charm. sigh
also owen & mark shouldve fucked. combat shouldāve been gayer.
captain jack harkness shouldāve been LESS gay. the excessive tongue kissing was fucking gross FSHDFJKDS like. i know that sceneās important to a lot of people + i respect it as an important moment in queer television + the way itās framed as this big romantic moment, but the actual kissing is just. gross. why did they have to kiss like that. there are better ways to kiss. sincerely, someone whoās very picky about kisses + still covers my eyes like a kid at like 60% of onscreen kisses.Ā
tkks stopwatch scene. ianto why are you flirting w the man who killed ur girlfriend four episodes ago. fucking evil. like ok lmao šthats not bad writing whatsoever to never explore that in-show and only do it in an audio 10 yrs later. sure.
all of them randomly having empathy for the alien whale in meat has always driven me crazy. i thought we were gonna find out that the whale had like, empathy-enhancing powers or telepathy or smth bc i couldnāt understand why any of those assholes cared sm. like, in tkks we find out the glove is fueled by empathy + thatās why none of them can use it. like, these are people who arenāt naturally empathetic. nothing wrong with that, iām like that lol. so i was really thrown off when they randomly all deeply cared about an alien creature. especially owen. like, i get randomly being moved by something, happens to the best of us, but the way it affected all of them + so profoundly felt ooc to me and has always bugged me a little. s2 tried so badly to humanize a group that s1 painted as absolute assholes, and i personally LOVE that theyāre assholes. i am not the biggest fan of s2, lol.
a lot of tosh scenes bug me, bc the show generally has very little respect for her + her capabilities, but ill get into that more when i talk about her as a character. specifically some of the tosh & owen scenes fucking INFURIATE me. heās so nasty to her. the end of adam (āi dont do apologiesā and the smug little smile), and laughing at her when he agrees to the date in reset, and āin your dreams, toshā in countrycide all stand out. ive complained about it before + ill do it again; idk wtf they were trying to tell the viewers with tosh/owen. i like the concept of the ship, because it has potential - i absolutely HATE it within the context of the show. every ātowen momentā just works to humiliate tosh. itās awful.
killing beth. im sure other people have done essays on the way torchwood treats its poc, esp its woc (although, knowing this fandom, maybe not lmao), and the lisa sitch was enough of a messā¦ the beth sitch couldāve been done differently. her essentially committing suicide by cop was fucking awful. ugh.
also the twist that suzie was evil + ten steps ahead couldāve been done much better. that shouldāve been better written.Ā
as i said, i dont even like tosh/owen, but the fact that you never see them dance in something borrowed was just plain mean tbh. u can see like a millisecond of a frame if you pause in the right place, but still, why not include a fraction of a nice moment between them. cmon. something like that mightāve actually made me like them more
i hate the blowfish confrontation in kkbb itās corny. cmon
i bitched about adam a lot the other day (again, here)ā¦ idek how iād get that episode up to my standards. im petty about s2 as a whole and ive been meaning to try to put thought into what would fix it for me for months and i havenāt gotten around to it cuz its such a daunting thought. grr. i think iād just completely redo the way adam influences them all. i literally donāt like what any of their altered selves offer. thereās no insight into them i find worthwhile. ig the shit abt jackās past is worth keeping but iād redo it completely bc i hate the gray arc. iād have to find some way to keep the conference scene though, or get that new character info + vibe elsewhere. bah

MLMU(TH) Ep 4!
First off, I wanna say that this episode wasn't my fav, but I still found it extremely cute! Atom is maybe the most adorable character to exist, and Kongthap is also very cute, I liked that we got to see more of his silly side with his two closest friends!
I really hope we see more of the Atom & Khaopan friendship cuz I think it would be sweet if they became good friends! (I replayed the part where Atom pulls Khaopan away many times because of how cute it was. Also the fistbump. Cuties.)
Kongthap standing up for Atom when the teacher thought he cheated was so sweet! And then him using the towel Atom gave him on the bus... š so so sweet! I also wanna point out the way Kongthap looks at Atom like he's the cutest thing on the planet cuz I relate it's, and yes I'm saying this again, so adorable! Like he adores Atom so much!!!
Clair seemed really sweet and I'm glad that the whole crush thing wasn't dragged out too much. The secondhand embarrassment from Atom was unreal though š«£.
Oh yeah, I'm glad that Half now knows about Atom's feelings! He was really annoying me and I agree with Atom saying that slap was well-deserved! On that note, Queen Mudmee still being the bestest alliance buddy, we love to see it!
Overall I really enjoyed the episode, just the slighter increase in focus on basketball wasn't really my cup of tea! It was still so so so cute and the bus scene at the end gave me butterflies! I love GemFourth's chemistry sm!
I feel like this post is just a 'how many times can I say cute/adorable in one post' challenge
#i actually saw someone say g4 doesn't have chemistry and i'm just like '???'#my love mix up th#my love mix up thailand#my love mix up#mlmu#mlmu th#kongthapatom#gemini norawit#fourth nattawat#geminifourth#fourthgemini#gmmtv bl#gmmtv series#gmmtv#jay's saying stuff :)#jay's talking BL ;)

Dee my beloved!! I missed you so very much these past couple of weeks! I have post notifications for you turned on so every time I got a lil notification from you I would be like c: when I saw your url and then :c bc I was usually too distracted/busy to come on here esp bc I need a laptop for the level of word vomit I usually conjure up for your precious thoughts and words.
I hope you're feeling better, so sorry to hear you were sick. I spent 20 hours making over 2 gallons of noodle soup and all its accoutrement for my bf's surprise bday party so I'm virtually sharing it with you. It's a bun rieu with plenty of Dungeness crab topped with lots of fresh veggie and herbs and homemade crab meatballs and herby fish paste and lil porky meatballs.
Did you do anything fun over labor day/are you prepping for fall in any way? I'm switching out my candlessss even though it is still a hellscape where I am and will feel like living on the surface of the sun until November.
I missed your AMA so can I ask now? What's the most embarassing thing that's happened to you in recent memory? Bc I flew home for a wedding and although it was for the son of beloved family friends (the son i also consider a brother figure), some people should not get schwasty in public bc the father of the groom came over loudly proclaim/lament that he wished *i* was becoming his daughter in law instead. At his son's wedding to a very sweet lady I adore. Five separate times. With people all around. I wanted to return 2 the sea. I wanted to be left alone in a corner with the 6 ebooks I had downloaded. I literally hid in a restroom for 75 minutes and risked everybody thinking I had The Shits just so I could get some peace to myself.
Anyways, before I go I am going to leave you with some of the final product of the cake I was telling you about that I was testing different components for. I really wish I could actually share with y'all instead of just telling you and cate about it in chats but until wonkavision is invented I'll pretend sending a pic is the same thing. I settled on double vanilla brown butter cake/pickled cayenne strawberry compote/yuzu and lemon curd liquid cheesecake/graham milk crumb. The layers didn't come out as cleanly as I'd hoped but I might try another one with white and yellow peaches (macerated? Cooked into a jam or Japanese style syrup?) and a Mango curd to squeeze every last bit of summer fruit season out.
If kita-non is around and for some reason bothers to read my inane prattle can i pls share a slice with u too. The couple times I got to skim your thoughts these past few weeks I was spending time offline I wanted to give your brain a big ole squeeze. Just lookin' at the pair of you with hearts in my eyes like look at u guys go torturing us with sweet sweet kita thoughts. We can pretend he supplied the fruits used in the cake ā¤
I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE BACK šš«¶!!!!!
i was still feeling quite cruddy over labour day weekend, but i DID go hunt down the CVS puffer jacket snoopy plushie....a personal accomplishment š (he was hard to find!). also iām planning to bust out my giant totes of halloween decorations this weekend!!! my fall candles are staring at me adoringly from the closet ready to take over.
I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR MISFORTUNE????? i cannot believe. i, too, would have called the bathroom my new home to never be perceived again. (has anyone informed sober!dad of his big drunk mouth????)
so this is secondhand embarrassment until i come up with a better story BUT i was on a zoom meeting at work today, and a man was pitching software to my boss & i. said man realized 40 minutes in that the software actually isnāt even available in my geographical region and thus he had completely wasted our time. i watched his soul leave his body through the screen.Ā the most awkward goodbye followed.
also if i magically appear in your pocket at some point like a tiny creature with its hands out begging for food, itās because every time you describe something youāve made, i yearn like no tomorrow. that soup sounds divine?? AND THE CAKE!!!!! THE CAKE!!!!!!!! itās beautiful. it puts other cake to shame.Ā i will dream of this cake. it will haunt me.
#š inbox#don't get me started thinking about kita + reader who's a baker..............................#oh no

Okay. OKAY. Okay. Ms. Lauriā¦ do I have some WORDS for YOU!!
First of all: I LOVED CHAPTER 10!!!
Smoked Cheese Cookieā¦ Iāve got mixed feelings on the guy!!! Always have. The way you write him is must *mwah š* excellent! He feels so in-character!
Things have been rocky between him and Readerā¦ but the ending of this chapter gives me hope that they might be able to live on more amicable terms. He wants us to return and prove him wrong! He even gave us our weapons back :ā)!! (Heās expressing that he caresā¦ even if itās only a teensy weensy bit!!)
And our dear Reader. Their anxieties during the first third of the chapter were so real and understandable. The way they jumped to conclusions regarding Golden Cheeseās recent absences is EXACTLY how I would have reacted/felt as well. Iām glad that we were shown otherwise by Her Radiance herselfā¦
MOZZARELLA SAYING THAT THE ROLE OF āCONSORTā SUITS USā¦ I WANTED TO DIE OF EMBARRASSMENT. How much does she knowā¦ HOW MUCJ DOES SHE KNOWW!!! šš And then Burnt Cheeseā¦ GOOODDD. I WAS SO EMBARRASSED. I WANTED TO DIIIEE. But Iām glad that Reader chose to ask him instead of Her Radiance becauseā¦ that would have killed me forreal. (I can can imagine how amused she would be if we ever askedā¦ sheād probably laugh too, like Mozzarella didā¦ I would not survive.)
And now, my favorite part of the chapter: The fondue springs scene.
When we walked by and we saw Golden Cheese with her two servantsā¦ ough. I immediately felt like we were intruding. Andā¦ I wasā¦ perhapsā¦ perchanceā¦ a littleā¦ jealousā¦.
My heart leapt to my THROAT when she called out to us and asked us to join them. I felt so CONFLICTEDDD. I oh so desperately wanted to join her, but I also didnāt want to see the servants touching her soā¦ tenderly š
I wasnāt sure what I was expecting of Her Radiance in that situation, but I was (pleasantly) surprised when she was so openly affectionate with us!! It almost felt like she was showing us off ><..
I also wonder what she was thinking in that momentā¦ she probably sensed our yearning but did she also sense our envy? Our insecurity?
(Might be a stretch, but I almost felt as if she was trying to warm us up to the idea of being around servantsā¦ mayhaps to get us used to it for the long term; easing us into a new lifestyle. Is she planning to bring us around more? I wonder if Mozzarellaās suggestion of āconsortā holds any weight to itā¦)
Also, when the servants asked if we wanted to watch them preen Her Radianceās wingsā¦ I yelled at the screen!! YES!!! I WANT TO!!!
I hope we learn how to do it ourselves eventually!!! Iād love to be able to tend to her like that.
And of course, the ending of the chapter. I was incredibly sad that we had to leave again :ā( But Reader is so courageous for volunteering to guide the messenger back to their kingdom!! No one else could have suited the job better, honestly. Her Radiance has faith in us as well, so Iām sure that it will all go smoothly! (Unless you have other plans in store for usā¦)
With that we are coming to our last chapter! Iām as excited as I am sadā¦ itās bittersweet to see a good thing come to an end. Youāve written a wonderful fic, Lauri!! And I wish you luck in sticking the landing!!! Iām also looking forward to that trivia chapter :]c
Thank you for writing this amazing story!

H-holy CRAP, bee anon....Hi to you, too! XD I-it's been a while....I was curious how you felt, but.....y-yowza.....! Putting it all out there at once, huh....?
I'm glad that someone enjoyed Mozzarella's consort troll.....w-well, maybe "enjoyed" isn't the right word, if you felt so much secondhand embarrassment? B-but, that also counts as it doing it's job, pffff....I-it was also supposed to be funny, but that works too, especially if you've been in similar situations....Y'know, not knowing what something means, asking about it, and shame ensues when it hits you what it is.....Hey, it happens....! XD
As for how much Mozzarella knows.....well, she hasn't spelled it out to Reader in-universe, but I still tried to make it obvious in the last two chapters, uh.....Y-yeah, she knows about their crush. She's known for a whiiiiiiile, at that. X//////D Which is part of why she said she cheered when she learned they became part of the kingdom, like.....she knew it was gonna happen, so it was a "FINALLY" moment for her. XD Yeah, she's been subtley pushing them to learn about how they feel for quite a while, so maybe, if you ever reread the old chapters, you'll be able to pick up on the hints. Mozzarella is a subtle character who keeps a lot of what she thinks about a mystery, but also.....y'know, she was definitely trying at multiple points to make things easier for them.....and she mostly failed cuz of how much they hid that part of themselves XD
Th-the springs scene.....hnnnnn....I-I have a fun fact about that scene that I'm saving for the trivia page, but....in short: I adore how that scene turned out. It's probably my second-fav part of the chapter (with my fav being the short scene of Reader begging) >//////> R-Reader at first hates the idea of having to speak about their relationship to others (explaining it to Burnt Cheese nearly killed them, haha), only for Golden Cheese to tell them they don't have to say anything, and she'll take care of it all....because no one can stop her.....There's nothing to be afraid of....s-so, all they have to do is focus on her....and it makes them feel a lot better about being seen in public.....I-I dunno how well it comes across, but for me, I-I'm proud of how I did it....p-partly because I like the idea....I-I feel like relationships with her would be like that....B-being shown off....l-like that.....to her servants.....wh-while she does all the talking, and.....y-yeah.....I-I'm rambling, s-sorry......>//////< (Y-you can't tell me she WOULDN'T, say...slam you a-against a wall in public view of others in the palace w-without any shame at all, c'mon- Sh-she's in charge, sh-she does what she wants-)
I-I'm also glad that you find Reader relatable still....They're basically their own character now, with their own arc, but I-I still wanna make them feel like they could be any of us, y-y'know...? Whenever they feel insecure and overthink things to try to make sense of them, that's basically me putting myself into them.....XD
B-but yeah, th-thanks for sharing your thoughts with me....! I-I'll try my best to get the next chapter done soon-ish, but I JUST started it, so I make no promises yet...S-sorry for the cliffhanger, but feel free to speculate how you think the story will end, I guess....? L-like, to yourself, not to me, cuz I'm not gonna say anything~ ^^
(I-I like the idea of touching/grooming her wings, too....b-but sh-she'd absolutely scold me if I did it the wrong way, so....h.tjtresghejrjhdds......t-terrifying at the same time....X///////D)

The Monaco GP review that nobody asked for
I had low expectations because Monaco is hard for overtaking but I was wrong because it turned out to be the best race of the season so far. I expected Max to win by a huge margin, like he lapped Checo twice I think ššš (and 75% of the grid). I was like "stop embarrassing Checo just make him retire like I can't take this anymore"
Carlos had me cackling the whole race with his radios. I was lowkey nervous when he got the black and white flag and hit Esteban because that could have gone very wrong. But Carlos's biggest enemy was Ferrari's strategy like the usual. Ferrari kept trying to dummy Ocon into making a pitstop and it didn't work and I got secondhand embarrassment. Like it didn't work the first time so they tried it again??? Like hang it up, flat-screen.
Charles was mostly quiet this race, and given his past history at the track this is a good thing. He finished exactly where he started, and makes me think that he probably would have been on the podium if it weren't for that penalty š. Nonetheless, I am happy he had mostly a drama-free race and got some points.
Lewis getting 4th and fastest lap means that those Mercedes upgrades actually work (or am I jumping the gun here). So happy that Mercedes are closing the gap in the constructor's fight with Aston Martin. George needs to stop asking for team orders to switch positions. Especially since Lewis was lapping faster times than him, and he finished like 17 seconds ahead. I was like
GEORGE! STOP ASKING FOR TEAM ORDERS!! YOU DID THIS BAHRAIN AND YOU ENDED UP LOOKING STUPID!!! GEORGE YOU KEEP ASKING AND YOUR TEAM KEEPS IGNORING YOU EVERY TIME!!! BONO NEVER MENTIONED YOUR SUGGESTION TO LEWIS DURING THE RACE!!! GEORGEEEEE STOP EMBARASSING YOURSELF AND JUST RACE APPROPRIATELY!!! YOU HAVE A TIME PENALTY FOR UNSAFE RELEASE DID YOU FORGET???? SWAPPING POSITIONS REALLY WOULD NOT MAKE SENSE BECAUSE Y'ALL DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TO CATCH OCON!!!
I felt so bad for Yuki because he was 9th place for like 80% of the race and then his brakes just gave out at the end. He was 30s+ ahead of his teammate and things just fell apart at the end. The position he finished at really doesn't reflect how good he was doing.
Lando was really eating the girls up on the Inters like he was going way faster than everyone else at that point. Makes me wonder how the race would have turned out if it was raining the entire time.
Overall, the race was more action filled and we got to see the midfield do some proper fighting. I don't have that much to complain about and I am excited to see how Barcelona will turn out

Girl I'm replaying HS:R and I tried different answers than what I was supposed to. The results were hilarious! I remember one scene with Cain when Lane asked why immortals exist and he was like, "WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO SAY????" š¤£š¤£š¤£š. His reaction was "bish, are you effing kidding me??!!!" š¤Øš¤Øš¤Ø.
The scene with Greg was even funnier. When he asked her about how she knew about railway road, Lane lied to him by saying she had been there but she had forgotten the way. Then Greg said, "If you knew about it, why did you ask me? WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO FOOL HERE, ME OR YOUSELF???!!". I know it isn't much but seeing Lane's ass got handed was funny š¤£š¤£. Dude was not even mad when he said that, but he got her ass straightened up nonetheless. Ngl this book is really well-thought-out.
ššš i love getting asks like this bc im curious about the outcome of those options too but im terrified of secondhand embarrassment. these replies are so funny and completely in character šš
