SASSY MAN APOCALYPSE

god hes probably talking shit more than u

"oh her? yeah she was such a bitch like no way she looked at you like that when i said i was so obviously taken!"

"and her hair? has she ever heard of a brush? like, if you're gonna come at my girlfriend, at least make yourself look better so you don't embarrass yourself. oh wait, you can't!"

probably laying on you as he does this, and starts squeezing you tightly

"because my girlfriend is the prettiest girl in the world!"

awww that's cute right?

WRONG this man is so quick with his comebacks its actually insane

does NOT think before he speaks

doesnt hold back, even against you (booo why did ur gf privileges not apply to that)

"leo! can you like, move your fat ass off me?" you groan under him as he lays down with his dead weight on top of you.

"like the fat ass you don't have?"

were you silent or SILENCED

everytime you think he wouldnt take it that far?? oh he will go THERE (but he always makes sure u know hes joking)

doesnt want to invoke your wrath so he apologizes IMMEDIATELY

"fix your hair-"

"fix your face- IM SORRY I DIDNT MEAN TO-"

*ੈ PERCY JACKSON

guys. we cant forget abt the OG SASSY MAN

also talking shit a whole lot more than he should

"uh, she needs to get her act together before she can start coming at others; like-" rolls his eyes for EMPHASIS "who does she think she is, talking to you like that?"

damn, who taught this man sass?

bro was BORN with it or smth

even outsasses you sometimes

if you tell him to get like a snack or something and hes in the mood to just lay down with you, he will huff SO loudly

"ugh, fine!"

gets you extra snacks anyway in case you want more (and drinks obviously)

SO SO INVESTED like he has the WHOLE story down

but sometimes mixes up the ppl if its been a while

"wait wait, so the library girl and the jock are dating?"

"the nerd and the library girl are dating, but the jock wanted library girl."

"that makes a lot of sense, actually."

has tea of his OWN because the sea knows everything apparently

"tobias told me-" percy started.

"who the fuck is tobias?"

"the turtle, duh. anyway, he said that this guy always takes girls to the beach on their first date, to make them fall in love with him or something. like, every single girl he's dated."

"...does that count as a manipulation tactic?"

*ੈ JASON GRACE

will be on your side no matter what

like if you end it with an "it is what it is"

um??? it is NOT what it is hello?

doesnt look like hes listening but hes paying attention to EVERYTHING

like hes "reading" a book but hes been on the same page for the entire time youve been talking

tries not to laugh at your rather creative insults, but sometimes you get a soft chuckle out of him

you take that as a win

once, you caught him listening through the door as you gossiped with piper over the phone

he was SO embarrassed omg

after that, you made sure to tell him all the tea as soon as you have it

"—and he cheated on her with her SISTER. who's like, three years younger than him! like, what the fuck? that's not even all he did!" you sit up, hands playing with the blanket. you think you see him lean a bit closer, as if wanting to hear more. "she fucked his brother in his room, like, her ex boyfriend's room for revenge! okay, that was a bitch move, but was it deserved?"

jason shrugged. "i'd say no one deserves to be cheated on, but he kinda did deserve it."

"exactly!"

HUGE TPOT 12 SPOILERS!

BUCKLE UP CHAT. CAUSE THIS IS GONNA BE A LONG THEORY!!!!!

Where do i begin?

So heres the thing, I watched TPOT 12 then took a shower right after. While taking said shower i took a moment to think about everything that went down. And thought of the wildest theory ever..

• XFHOV

LETS START FROM THE BEGINNING,

One and Three, right?

These two fellas have FINALLY appeared after 15 years! Why is that?

Here is the scene when X found out their value: 7!

Four, Seven, and X are celebrating and generally very happy. Who isnt happy?

Three and one.

Theyre clearly angered by this whole situation, but why? Who are they angry at?

Theres three possible options:

1. Seven. But that wouldnt make sense, huh? Basically every algebralien has SOME sort of grudge held against him, so its nothing new. Scratch that!

2. Four. Its possible, four has done alot of things. But thats not who im personally going to focus on. Well, partially at least.

That leaves one more person!

3. X. But why them?

"Theyre just a little silly dude, they did nothing wrong!" And youre right. Thats exactly why theyre a target.

• THREE AND ONE'S CAPYIVITY

Youre probably wondering, why am i focusing on X, and not four? Four is more of a suspect, after all.

Think about it this way,

Three is trapped in a prison inside of Four's school, so four put him there! (They are the only one with control over that place anyway.)

One is trapped inside of the moon. There isnt really any solid proof to prove my theory with this one, but she came out during TPOT. She clearly had the ability to escape and didnt seem tired out and/or surprised that she finally left her prison. One actually seems happy and collected, even going as far as "greeting everyone" once she's out. She chose to come out at this time, just like how she chose to mess with Two's show.

One also confirmed that shes an "old friend of Two's." If One is suddenly against Two after all the years of them knowing each other, Two clearly did something to her.

• MUTUAL CONNECTIONS

And youre STILL probably wondering, "Chim! You still didnt explain what X has to do with all of this!"

Four and Two hate eachother, this hatred being caused by Two when they stole more than HALF of the bfb cast.

(They seem to not be familiar with eachother when they "first" meet. Im not exactly sure why here HELP.)

But anyway!

Who does Four have a good friendship with? X!

Who does Two have a good friendship with? Also X!

X is what keeps them sane around eachother, the only main reason why they stick around.

If anything bad were to happen to X, Four and Two clearly have the power and ability to get back at whatever or WHOever caused this harm.

One and Three did something to X, and it resulted in Two and Four snapping.

• THREE'S PERSONALITY

Three has basically ZERO information on himself, we know nothing about the guy. But what we do know, is that hes agressive.

In the Number Playground Chronicles, we get an article that explains an event that takes place, Three being apart of it. The article reads:

(To reduce confusion, ill be adding the names for you guys to differenciate whos who.)

"(Five)Integer did not pick up the ball when dropped, and Three Integer, the person playing with him, became impatient. (Five)Integer was angry at (Three)Integer because, Three Integer could simply pick up the ball and throw it to (Five)Integer, and (Three)Integer and (Five)Integer could keep playing.

"FOAMING THREE INTEGER"

The horrible, tragic incident happened at 10:13 AM. Three Integer became Upset.

Three Integer at 10:16, Angry.

Three Integer at 10:31, Furious.

Three Integer at 10:24, and "Foaming."

Three Integer at 10:39, when he started to produce smoke.

(Five)Integer picked up the ball at 6:17 PM."

This event did truly happen, we can see the beginning of it play out in the first few seconds of XFOHV:

Three was so angry and REFUSED to even touch the ball. Five had to go pick it up themself HOURS after the incident.

Three also WILLINGLY closed the cell door after it was opened. He couldve escaped, yet he didnt. I have two possible reasons for this:

1. He's afraid of Four catching him, so he followed orders and stayed put.

2. Three's gone insane after a decade and a half of being all alone, to the point that he WANTS to stay inside.

• ONE'S MOTIVES

One seems like a friendly character, shes smiling in basically the ENTIRETY of her screentime, (minus the part when she conversed with Fanny.)

But something about her smile isnt right, its almost disturbing. The way she grins in the oddest situations,

She is seen with a list during the post-credits scene, with four names on it that are all crossed out, meaning they are "completed."

□ Bell.

□ Bomby.

□ Fanny.

□ Ice Cube.

Notice how all four of these contestants were in some sort of distress during that moment, and One helped them out! In exchange for a "favor."

1. She helped Bell escape elimination by removing her string (something that annoyed Bell constantly due to contestants activley climbing it.) And hiding her.

2. She helped Bomby escape elimination by hiding him.

3. She gave Fanny a new mouth, discarding the need to spend hours at a time searching for it in the ocean.

4. She gave Ice Cube a new pair of legs, allowing her to walk again.

What exactly does One need these favors for? Revenge against Two, of course!

● ONE AND TWO'S FRIENDSHIP

Theres a popular theory stating that Two was kicked out of the equation playground, this would clear up the confusion as to why they basically NEVER appear in the subscriber specials.

Maybe this is because Two hates math! They said it to Gaty in one of the episodes.

I also believe that One was also kicked out. Why, you may ask?

Take a look at this scene in the beginning of TPOT 11:

One's picture was hidden underneath Seven's. As if nobody(COUGH COUGH. Espcially four) wanted her to be mentioned so they simply hid her.

Maybe this is how One and Two became friends, two rejects.

● RANDOM THINGS THAT GET THEIR OWN SECTION CAUSE IDK WHERE ELSE TO PUT THEM

1. How the HELL did One get a mouth and... legs?

2. Judging by One's little room, she probably really likes space and astronomy, maybe thats way the moon was where she was sent.

3. Kinda freaky to think that One was there in the moon the ENTIRE time. Throughout every single episode of the series from BFDI 1A to TPOT9, and we never knew.

Yeah tbh idk what else to say this was just a little info dump cause my mind was PACKED. anyways yeah tell me if i missed anything anf let me know about your little theories and opinions on mine! :3

[stopthisshitplease]

What I would chance about the last season of The Umbrella Academy because the last season was a disgrace for the humanity and lost of all our hopes. (#1)

SPOILERS OBVIOUSLY

- Luther's jobs were in a bar for so long so it doesnt really made sense on why he was a pole dancer. I feel like after looking less hairy and buffy he would try to socialize more. Maybe hes that one barista who is overly talkative but so done with people. We could see some Karens absulutely wailing at him. And Sloaine. Shes with him. BECAUSE WHERE IS SHE???? But Luther begin a 'dancer' was really funny af sooo

- Diego wouldnt become a mailman thing. He was trying to be a police in the first season and tried to save Kennedy in the second. He would try to be a police again. Yk the Police Academy and all that. The CIA thing was good but if he cant get in the legal way he is getting in another way. You cannot stop him as he was a literal vigilante.

- Allison, Claire and Raymond lives together now! She wouldnt overwork herself, She is finally with her daughter and her husband now. She would work a small but stable job so she can provide and have time for her family. (Keep in mind that Raymond isnt from this timeline so hes still learning about the future) And yes Klaus does visit her time to time so he can babysit Claire, even thought its more like Claire babysitting Klaus.

- Klaus is eighter a psychiatrist or has a 9-5 job while is studying in community Collage. Eighter way he is helping drug addicts, homeless people, LGBT+ people, angsty teenagers in his own way. People know him as a friendly weirdo but they all like him! Hes not doing well financially tho. Güven that he doesnt have a stable job experiance.

-Five working in CIA doesnt make a lot of sense. For all the means he probably swore wouldnt work anything like that at all. He lives in the countryside now. And is a farmer! He tells the other people who lives close to him that he inherited the place by his dead father (haha) and the others learned the hard way to not pity him.. The boy maybe cant travel now but he is sure manically dangerous!

- Ben... Agh Ben. Not sure about him. He is obviously an asshole. But in the season he was more open. He was getting better. He doesnt have a lot relationship with the other siblings so I dont think he wants to hang out with them at all. But I dont think he would be a criminal (minus minor law breakings but who is counting?) Maybe he teaches martial arts? But a really competitive teacher and his students always go to home with bruises. He swears its a part of training. The parents are not amused. His yelp revievs sure is something!

- Victor wouldnt have a thing with every woman come on.. He loves Sissy too much for that. And his relationships never ended good. Him having his own place is nice but he strictly never dates. He adapted to the powerless life better that the others given that he didnt have them for a long time. But he still felt like the little kid who was locked up again time to time. Would be kinda cool if he and Allison bonded over it. (Allison couldnt talk for a year remember?)

- Lila wouldnt be a stay at home mom. She would still be on the 'book club' but her, a stay at home mom??? She has insane abilities in physical power, she would maybe be a coach. And for her AND Diego having three kids bespite begin scared to have one?? Nope those babies are poof! Gone!AND NO SHE DID NOT CHEAT.

heyy, i saw you asking for gojo requests 👉🏼👈🏼

can i request a very fluffy domestic husband gojo i don’t really have anything else in mind so please feel free for the rest 🫶🏼

Pairings: Gojo Satoru x Reader.

Tags: FLUFF

Synopsis: He's a silly babie having sillier thoughts

A/N: HUSBAND SATORU WOULD BE SO CHEESY ME THINKS. ALSO I HOPE U LIKE THIS!!!

You were fast asleep, for the most part at least but you were way too tired to get out of bed and see what Satoru has been doing for the past two hours.

For the past two hours, you've been hearing the clicking and clacking of things, doors being opened and closed every short interval. You were just so thankful you've gained the ability to sleep through whatever chaos satoru causes- he can even ask you nonsensical questions and you're capable of answering him through your slumber.

You wake up an hour later and find the house to be so silent. Eerily silent. You know he's safe or at least alive by sensing his cursed energy. Thinking it's always better to get ready for the day before even thinking of facing your dear husband. Especially now, you know something is up.

"Sato-" Your eyes widen when you see him, your husband, one of the strongest sorcerers of the era on his knees, looking sorry. You expected a prank, a joke, something random but not whatever this is.

Before you could recover from your shock he gets on his one knee, grabbing your hands "I'm so sorry for always annoying you and creating troubles but please don't leave me" he pleads.

"WHAT??? Wait wait- who's leaving you? What is happening?" You question him, bewildered by his strange yet worrisome actions, nose scrunched with your head tilted.

"...you?" he feared.

"why would i leave- wait did you.... did you cheat on me?" you ponder, you know he wouldnt but the heart aches even at the thought of it.

"WHAT?! NO I WOULD NEVER. WHY DID YOU EVEN THINK OF THAT??????" he was dumbfounded and quite hurt as well.

"then why would I leave you??"

"because you told me you'll leave me"

"I NEVER SAID THAT and i love you too much for that Satoru" You confessed cupping his cheeks, eliciting a shy giggle from him.

But he returns to the main topic pretty quickly and now you're both stuck in a weird questionable situation. Finally, he decides to explain how he interrogated the sleepy you and asked you all the wrong questions. Of course you said yes when he asked "would you leave me tomorrow when you wake up for always annoying you?" leading to the current scenario.

Though you had the magical ability to sleep through things but there was a major drawback- you would say yes to everything when being questioned.

You sigh as you pull him into your arms "My love, my dear husband of three years please do not worry about my unfortunate habit of saying yes to everything in sleep and me going anywhere." you pause, taking his hand in yours before placing a gentle kiss on the wedding ring while looking at him "i fear I love you too much to even leave you after death" you chuckle.

He pulls you in his arms tightly, causing the both of you to fall on the ground as his laughter echoes through the rooms "sigh, see at you making me worry for absolutely no reason! That is very bitter to do so, my kikufuku!!" he complains contradictory to the grin on his face.

"But nonetheless, let me treat my sweet wife like she deserves to be." He announces, making the rest of your time, his.

The rest of your day goes pretty well with him having breakfast with you where he insisted you both feed each other, as according to him, it helps make the couple love each other more. Him cleaning the dishes before settling on the couch which was surrounded by your favorite flowers where you both went through the special, as he called it, the special married couple skincare routine before the both of you painted each other's nails. Ordering the food through online services as you both binged your recent favorite series, intensely discussing the plot.

It was a perfect stay-in date, the one you both desperately needed to recharge from the exhausting lifestyle you both lead.

"soooo.... tomorrow even if you say yes to your most hated food, I shouldn't make it right?" Satoru questioned, his voice laced with mischief.

"Yes thank you. I mean yeah please don't make it" you doubly clarify so you prove that you're awake, causing the both of you to laugh.

˙✧˖° SWEET TOOTH P.1 📷 ༘ ⋆｡ ˚

warnings: gore descriptions of animals, mention of walkers (obv), and some cussing if you count that,,

pairing: soft!s4!carl grimes x reader

kind of an au where rick doesnt pass out and carl & judith reunite immediately after the prison era (if that makes sense)

I HAD COMPLETELY forgotten why i was here, i was supposed to be scavenging.. but i got side tracked by a cluster of ducks off the edge of this pond.

they all looked oddly peaceful, even when walkers were snarling quietly behind the doors of the barricaded houses from when the world went to absolute shit.

my keys dangled loudly from my pant pocket as i crouched down, but i no other place to put them because i lost my bag a while ago, probably nabbed by a walker that was wandering around and i didn't notice.

a duck waddled by my feet slowly, something in its mouth. "whatcha got?" i whispered, the duck looking me straight in the eye before dropping the item on the dewed grass.

i picked it up slowly, inspecting it. i realized after a solid 15 seconds of looking at it that it wasn't anything interesting — just a piece of overly rusted metal.

i shoved it in my back pocket before getting up from my grass mound i had made, and set off to wherever i found solace in for the time being.

a duck quacked behind me loudly, but i ignored it before i heard the crunching of flesh. i turned around hesitantly, a sob slipping between my lips as i saw multiple ducks being torn apart piece by piece — blood spurting everywhere.

i turned around before the walkers could notice i was still there, using all of my strength to climb up one of those tall, darkened trees until they disappeared.

EVEN AFTER SOME time, i was still stuck in that damn tree. why did i even fucking choose to go up here? i knew they wouldnt leave until the sun rose — chasing after it idiotically.

i think i started to doze off before i heard a gunshot ring through my ears — watching the walkers being shot from probably about two or three spots.

i sat up after they all dropped to the ground, my feet swung over the trunk. i guess the people that killed them hadn't realized my presence.

"who are you?" an older man had shouted out, i guess he didn't realize i was a damn kid but, better safe than sorry.

i called out my name before all three of them seemed to relax, the same man who yelled at me had beckoned me to come down.

"you all look rough," i said, crinkling my lip backwards for a second. i never really had a filter — but that didnt seem to affect any of them.

"yeah — we probably do," the woman said. her voice was nice, she sounded kind. well, some people are straight up horrible and they sound sweet as a damn peach tree.

"i'm michonne," the woman said, seeming to grin like she couldnt do anything but.

"i'm carl!" the young boy introduced himself enthusiastically, smiling. why did they all smile so damn big?

"rick," the older man husked out, not smiling. well, finally one with some sanity i guess.

after a few seconds of silence, carl handed me a piece of chocolate that was half melted. "do you like candy? i have more at the house —" he talked with a certain enthusiasm i couldnt reciprocate, especially after watching those ducks being torn apart.

rick interrupted him, "we can't show them the house! what if they have people?" rick whispered, but i heard every word.

"i lost my people 'bout a week ago. mainly just sticking to this neighborhood for now," i spoke up. i didn't want these damn country people to conspire about me.

"dad, let them come to the house!" carl pleaded, "they seem nice, and its already like nighttime now."

rick was in thought for a moment, putting his hand on his chin as his gun slacked in the holster.

"yeah — c'mon. it's gettin' late, kid."

a/n: this sucks so bad but i'm making this a series to preoccupy myself LMAO

[snowthedemonfox]

okay so i need to put my thoughts somewhere before i forget so uhhh heres a quick theory about what ep 6's adventure might be

(i could be extremely wrong though so glitch if youre seeing this and thinking about how wrong i am: i cannot wait to be proven wrong bc i am hyped for episode 6 either way)

so in the ep 4 trailer we can see this suggestions box, and based on Caine's conversation with Zooble in ep 3, i think all future adventures will be based on requests from the cast. like episode 5 being baseball themed. we saw an unfinished version of the stadium in the s1 teaser, and in ep 4 we can see Ragatha with a baseball. if ep 5 is the baseball episode, it'd make sense if she was the one who put that adventure idea in the suggestions box

so then i think we can safely assume the spudsy's adventure, even if it does seem to be rushed by Caine, might've been suggested by Gangle. why? not sure, im guessing we'll be told that in the episode itself, but if she did, then that means that yes, future adventures will be suggested by the character the episode is about

since episode 5 is the last episode that was teased in the s1 teaser, we have little to no info on episodes 6-9. i think its still a bit too early for me to guess what will happen in the final 3 episodes, but i think based on some other things we've been told i can make a safe guess about ep 6

i think it might be a dance themed episode. which, okay, hear me out, i have some more things i want to share with the class:

ONE: this would not be the first time one of Goose's "wait and see" answers would hint towards a future episode's adventure. back in september, before the s1 teaser released, someone asked her this:

which, as we know, a haunted house adventure DID happen in ep 3

(there was also this one, which if the ep 4 theories about someone being high are to be believed, then this one could also be a hint of something we didnt know about at the time. but take this with a grain of salt because ep 4 isnt out yet at the time of writing this)

TWO: "but why would Jax's episode be the dance one?? he wouldnt suggest something like that!!"

well, yes, he probably wouldnt let anyone else see him suggest something like that for an adventure, but who said you had to sign your name on the suggestions? couldnt he do it anonymously without anyone knowing who suggested it? doesn't seem like he's the kind of person to admit something like that

maybe in the episode, someone figures out it was him (maybe recognising his handwriting, since episode 4 has shown us what the cast's handwriting looks like on their spudsy's nametags), and that's what starts to cause problems. the point of the episode isn't the adventure itself, it's about Jax and his issues

THREE: this is the weakest piece of evidence here but im just thinking like, it kind of makes sense that a dance episode might feature a lot of different outfits. maybe Goose was talking about a later episode, but again, i have 0 ideas on what might be happening in those final 3, so my safest bet is that this was referring to episode 6

the only thing i DONT have an answer for, is why ep 6 would be described as "guns":

unless this post was made before the episode 7/8 split (which resulted in a total of 9 episodes), i have now idea how "guns" fits into this theory. we know thanks to the fandomcon QnA that Jax's weapon of choice would NOT be a gun, and would be revealed in canon to be something else. if Jax isn't the one with the gun, why is episode 6 described that way? i have 0 answers for this, and this one word could be the thing that destroys this already flawed theory lol

anyway uhhh post over thats my game theory i hope Jax continues to get worse <3

[clownmoontoon]

WAAUAUGHHGH HELLO FRIENDS ITS UPDATE TIME!!!!!

if you have or havent kept up w my talky posts lately heres a general rundown of all the things + an update! A LOT'S BEEN GOIN ON ALDKJASD

this is the promised more detailed break down of events, so feel free to scroll down to the end to get the TLDR!! <3

i realized thru therapy n talkin to friends/my sisters that my mother is an Abusive Gaslighting Narcissist (thank u therapist i love this title sm) and a whole lotta things in my life started making sense (like why i felt worthless/like a burden! my mom was actively trying to make me feel this way lol!!)

SO i reconnected w my sisters who i hadnt spoken to in ages bc i thought they hated me (guess why lol) and started keeping them updated win all the happenings that were happening! we agreed to keep our reconnection a secret from our mom for now, as it became clear she had tried to keep the three of us apart so she could guilt us separately for money and we wouldnt ask any questions if stories told to one didnt make sense with the other (none of them made sense LOL)

tho i tried to keep it on the dl it was hard to hide the fact that i was now aware abuse was happening, even if i didnt say anything i had p much decided to stop grovelling/begging for love/begging for respect bc i realized my mom was never gonna give me any of that no matter how much money i gave her ( in retrospect it sounds obvious when i put it like that but when youve been living it your whole life its quite a shock! :,o) ) so the lack of grovelling/paying for love started to make my mom quite angry and she started to escalate her abuse bc at this point none of us were giving her any money and she was aware i had money and was refusing to give it (i told her i had to save for one of my kitten's spay surgery, which was true, and the idea that i would use my money for anything other than giving to her made her veeerry angry) suddenly there wasnt enough money for food, not enough money for gas to drive me to work ( a less than 5 min drive vs a nearly 45 minute walk with no sidewalk along a busy road aa), etc u get the idea all the while my mom kept trying to guilt me for more money while always seeming to suddenly have the money when i kindly held my ground and refused to give anything (she kept buying her blonde hair dye, kept getting her car washed, buying JUST enough food for when she was in the house etc) in the end walking all that way was good bc the 5 min car ride was a lot more stressful and i was able to stop and get food on the way during this time i had talked w friends and my sisters about moving out, I REALLY WANTED TO, but no one could house me and my four cats and honestly i dont fault any of them for that, taking on a whole other person is a lot, much less someone w four cats no matter how well behaved they are ^^;

as my mom got angrier she made it clear how much of a burden i was now that i was saving my money, telling me the sooner i move out the better, threatening to call police if i dont leave etc (all very clear bluffs in hopes that id pay up out of fear, she refuses to admit she relies on me to take care of the house and her dogs) until one day i was taking notes on a class on my laptop and she walked in front of me and slammed my laptop shut and started ranting about why should i get to use the water or electricity etc essentially telling me i wouldnt be allowed to shower, take classes or do work until i started giving her all my money

also for those who dont know i wasnt living with her bc im a huge bum that loves mooching off my mom lmao we had an agreement, and she emphatically told me that i didnt need to pay to live there so long as i was working on my career and took care of my cats -> all things i continued to do despite it all lmao shes just very good at making me feel worthless enough that i give her all my money, i have no savings bc of this and didnt even realize why asdkl;jasd

ANYWAY one night she got angry enough that i genuinely felt scared, i had mentioned before that in my teens and early 20s i thought my mom was going to kill me and hadnt felt that way in some years til that night the look in her eyes was so ... dark? like immediately i felt "oh shes going to hurt me" she didnt, she just walked past me and didnt say anything but the look was there. i called both of my sisters the next day and told them that if anything happened to me to not believe our mom if she said it was an accident or that i did smth to myself etc and that 100% she did it and did it on purpose that was enough for my oldest sister who said suddenly during the call "what if i just come get you??" my oldest sister lives in virginia and i lived in ga which is a roughly 8 hour drive so i didnt think she'd really do that, and i reminded her i have 4 cats to which she responded "FUCK MY LANDLORD" LMAO she has a big house and told me theres plenty of room and tho the landlord said no more cats (she already has two and theyre registered as therapy animals) they hardly ever visit and always call first so we can do a quick hide or take the kitties for a ride or smth when they come

SOOOO SHE DROVE DOWN ON SUNDAY, STAYED IN A HOTEL, CAME MONDAY MORNING WHILE OUR MOM WAS AT WORK, HELPED PACK UP ALL MY STUFF INCLUDING MY KITTIES AND WE MADE OUR GREAT ESCAPE!!! \QUQ/

im mostly settled in my sister's house now and things are going great!! everyday im realizing just How Bad my mom's house was and it boggles my mind!!! ive never Not lived in an abusive home and finally being out is like!!! WHAT!!! it may sound small but just being able to wash my clothes and have food whenever im hungry is such a BIG DEAL to me and its just a given here and im rolling around like WHAT IS THIS LMAO ALSO MY CATS HAVE MADE THEMSELVES AT HOME AND ARE SO HAPPY AND COMFY AND THEY PLAY EVERYDAY AND ARE REALLY ENJOYING THE STAIRS BC THEYVE NEVER EXPERIENCED STAIRS BEFORE LMAO AND EVERYONE HERE LOVES TO PET AND CUDDLE THEM!!! \QUQ/ IM SO HAPPY!!! <3<3

TLDR: MY SISTER MOVED ME INTO HER BIG HOUSE IN VA W ALL 4 OF MY CATS AND THINGS ARE GOING GREAT \QUQ/

[estrella-zoe39]

i love dumping random shit onto my tumblr anyway weird discussion of the most random fandoms combined go! mostly discuses love as core themes of stories.

i think my favourite pieces of media are those that just dont make sense if you dont view them as a love story. i came across this discovery as i was watching code geass ep 17 when lulu goes insane when he realises the one thing thats in his way is also the person he trusts completely. there is no other genuine explanation other than love for the reasoning of his reaction in that scene. with shirley he had this mellow yet sorrowful reaction when he realised he couldnt be with her anymore. not saying there wasnt a part of him that didnt love her but with suzaku? he goes berserk. whatever he felt couldnt have happened if he didnt love suzaku.

other good examples of this are frieren, orv, and house. there are more my brain is just kinda fried rn and i think these three are good examples of like. varying levels of how explicit the message is. (theyre all obvious af tho)

ill start with frieren because i think if youve even like. heard about it youll know but himmel and frierens relationship really is the core of like the entire story. a boy who loved too soon and a girl who loved too late. frieren just isnt. frieren when you take that away. frieren at its like core is about love you cant just remove that because then the story wouldnt be the same it probably wouldnt even exist!!! and im sure everyone knows this its just surprising how frieren isnt officially a romance manga considering its entire premise

another example is orv which is a bit harder to know if youve only read the webtoon. orvs story just wouldnt exist if hsy didnt love kdj. if she didnt write yjh and then kdj wouldve died, plain and simple. and if kdj didnt love the story back then he wouldve also died. hsy, yjh, and kdj at their core are their love for each other. hsy spent 12 years writing a book everyday just for kdj to keep on living and in kaizenix she waited 50 years for him. yjh spent the entirety of orv learning how to love from kdj, through fighting alongside him, through protecting him, through seeing him die, even when he learned he wasnt real he still believed him, and in the end yjh was the one who let kdj be known in every universe. his mission was something that he only could brave through if he loved kdj. and he did. speaking of kdj, i think its very obvious to everyone but his self-sacrificial nature is due to him only knowing that as a love language. something else is how without kdjs love, orv also just wouldnt exist. if his love for twsa, for the chars, for STORIES, didnt exist, he wouldnt be alive. if he didnt keep on molding twsa, to be alongside every yjh and co, to suggest new plot points, he wouldve never came to love it.

onto my last example, house. now i think you gotta be a very specific type of person to catch them (its called not being homophobic) but man are house and wilson like. house the show itself. their love defines the show, from the first scene to the last. he only took that first case which started everything because of wilson. half of his stupid antics are because of wilson. his love starts and ends at wilson because he knows wilson will be the one person who will always be there consistently for him. because no matter what happens, like house getting sent to trial by tritter, or house failing to save amber, they will be together, whether they want to or not. so when wilson is diagnosed with cancer, he breaks. the one person who he thought would always be there for him. isnt. in fact, he'll die first. and so, he does everything. he listens to wilsons stupid fucking ideas because he needs wilson to be there for him, he needs wilson at his grave, not him at wilsons. thats why he gives everything to wilson, his vicodin, his attention, and even his life. the only reason he dies is so he can be with wilson. none of this actions can be done without love in them, absolutely none. i think my favourite quote of them is "if house chops down a tree, and wilson isnt around to hear it, did it really fall?" it just sums up their stupid, needy, insane, and romantic dynamic so much.

all of these pieces of media need love in them to be them, so i hope ive loved them more than they could ever want, despite some of their flaws 🩷🩷🩷

F!Reader x Kim Jiwoo

summary: Maybe going out with your best friend (and crush) was a good idea at the time, however at the same time you had no idea what would happen.

tags: friends to lovers, fluff

wc: 1.5k

A night that changed your life. It wasnt really uncommon for you and Jiwoo to go out; she is your best friend after all. The late night walks or when both of you went to an ice cream shop which weirdly made you fall for her even more!

Either way whatever it was you couldnt seem to fall deeper in love for her. You did try to deny it, shes your best friend so it wouldnt make sense if you were in love.

Going out also wasnt that you both did, at least not alone. Of course you went out with her but usually there was someone with you, it was the case for anything. It did sort of get annoying, both of you wanted time alone but knew it would end up with it being quiet (which you or her dont really mind) and just awkward, however when you did get the chance you said yes.

“Lets go out.” Jiwoo said

It sort of sounded like a demand, the way she said it but you just thought she wanted to finally go out alone. Which sort of was the case. Both of you planned the time when you would go out and the wait began. As it is exam season this night out would be something both of you need.

The day finally came and you would be lying if you said you werent nervous. You were very nervous and a lot. However Jiwoo was the one who was probably even more nervous.

“Hey!” Jiwoo said as she ran into you

“Hey?” You said “Need anything-”

“Yeah.” Jiwoo said

“Alright what is it?” You asked. Honestly it should have been obvious, but you didnt catch on.

“When exactly are we going out?” Jiwoo asked “I mean we talked about it agreed to it but it never got anywhere further than that”

“Tonight?” You said “I mean look, whenever is best for you and me”

“Tonight sounds good” Jiwoo said

“Alright!” You said

“So you are going out tonight? On a date?” Kyujin asked

“Its not a date!” Jiwoo said “Its a hangout”

“A hangout which will turn into you breaking the news to us tomorrow?” Bae asked

“No!” Jiwoo said

“I dont get it, you and Y/n never hang out alone.” Kyujin said “What made it change your mind?”

“I dont know really, we were sitting in the library studying and she threw the idea of going on a night walk” Jiwoo said

“And it turned out into a date?” Bae teased

“Its not a date.” Jiwoo said, bringing her attention fully to the taller girl.

“Well whatever it is, i will definitely want to hear the full story tomorrow!” Kyujin said

Maybe it wasnt a date. Thats what you and her thought, it was just a thought at first to hang out but now it turned into something more. It was already evening and Jiwoo was at your shared dorm room with Haewon, Lily and Sullyoon to go out. You got up and went to the door.

“Im ready!” Jiwoo said the moment you opened the door “Hey…” “Sup” Haewon said seeing Jiwoo

“Have fun!” Lily said the moment you went out. You noticed how nicely Jiwoo dressed, you were wondering if you should quickly go in to change but that plan was quickly changed with Jiwoo dragging you outside.

“Are they your friends?” Jiwoo asked, you knew who she was referring to. Sullyoon, Haewon and Lily.

“Dorm mates” You said “I mean i guess friends too”

“Is it fun living with three people?” Jiwoo asked

“Yeah” You said “They are fun people to hang out with”

“Oh, then thats good” Jiwoo said

You wanted to sort of reveal why exactly you wanted to go out with Jiwoo but that changed as you didnt really want to ruin the night (or date) this early on. Jiwoo dragged you into a coffee shop, the one where you always went to with others, but never alone with Jiwoo. You and her ordered the usual and sat down at a nearby table, you thought she would just sit next to you instead she sat right in front of you. You hoped that she wouldnt see how nervous you are.

“Why are you nervous?” Jiwoo asked

“Im not” You said “Just…its rare for us to be alone, you know?”

“I understand” Jiwoo said “Why have we never tried being alone?”

“We cant, we just get quiet” You said “Remember when Sullyoon and Kyujin left us for a couple of minutes?”

“Yeah and we were just quiet” Jiwoo said “I wanted to say something but i just thought it would be awkward”

“Yeah i know” You said

“But hey! We can at least now get closer” Jiwoo said

You were grateful that this hangout (more of a date at this point) wasnt that awkward. The time spent in the coffee shop was more of Jiwoo talking and you falling even deeper for her. It was pretty much you falling even deeper in love, if thats somehow possible now! But with Jiwoo anything is possible at this point.

Next place she wanted to go was an amusement park and who would you say no to at this point. The walk to it wasnt far away but at least you talked to her a lot, in fact so much that you didnt even realize you were there already.

“Where do you want to-” You said before Jiwoo dragged you to a game already, it was one of those where you had to make a shot of some sort which was almost impossible, nonetheless you agreed to it. You didnt think Jiwoo would actually win, but when you did you were probably more excited than Jiwoo herself.

Maybe Jiwoo knew that you would agree to everything she suggests or she just wanted to have fun whatever it was both of you went to games after games you were sure that you will get through everything and Jiwoo would only have one reward (which was at the start, at this point close to an hour ago), however you saw how smiley and how happy she was, it made your heart flutter at the sight of it. The whole night was mostly you looking at her and not paying attention to anything else.

Midnight was slowly approaching and the last place you wanted to go to was the nearby field, where a firework show would happen. A good way to end the night and hopefully a really opportunity to finally confess to her.

“What are we doing here?” Jiwoo asked

“Just wait and you will see” You said while finding a nice place to sit at, it was away from anyone else but still a perfect place to watch the end of the day show.

“You know im glad we went out” Jiwoo said “What else would we do right now?”

“Honestly probably nothing” You said “Tonight was fun”

“It was the most fun i had in a while” Jiwoo said “Probably in years”

“Yeah me too” You said

“We should do this more” Jiwoo said “You know go on dates”

“This was a date?” You asked, dumb question you should have known. A trip with Jiwoo all alone even.

“You are really that blind?” Jiwoo asked “Y/n i have been giving you signs for months now.”

“Signs?” You asked “What kind-”

“I love you Y/n!” Jiwoo said a bit too loudly making couple of people turn around to look at you, if the sun was still up and shining Jiwoo would see you blushing.

“Come on you really think us going to the coffee shop and coming here is just cause?” Jiwoo asked “A night out really?”

“No of course not” You said “I just never thought you liked me too”

“Yeah i understand i didnt show signs” Jiwoo said

“I love you too” You said “I think this was a successful date”

“It was” Jiwoo said “Im glad thats that…”

You finally confessed to her, honestly you were never sure if Jiwoo liked you. You werent even sure if she even sees you two other than best friends but now that she did confess to, its a huge relief. Especially for you.

The next day Kyujin started the day by asking Jiwoo questions, as Bae had her own dorm she wasnt there currently.

“So let me get this straight, you took her out on a date but didnt tell anyone?” Kyujin asked

“Yeah” Jiwoo answered

“And you confessed without even telling me you had feelings towards her?” Kyujin asked “You really wanted to surprise your other best friend too!”

“Yeah sort of” Jiwoo said “She took me to a coffee shop and then we went to the amusement park and then-”

“Alright i will invite Bae over and you will tell the full story!” Kyujin said before picking up her phone.

You werent safe either, Haewon, Sullyoon and Lily automatically started asking you questions.

“So you have a girlfriend?” Haewon asked

“Yeah” You answered

“Congrats!” Haewon said

“Y/N HAS A GIRLFRIEND?” Lily screamed from the other room.

“This is going to be a long night”

lottie/nat/travis theory!!

read something about the possible idea of lottie/nat/travis polycule idea and wanted to expand <3 (this is long lol sorry ill make a tldr)

so, obviously we have nat and travis already together and as the majority of yj fans i come across agree on, they're relationship is lowk toxic. and i can't imagine them just sort of staying together even if its an on and off thing until they get rescued, cause they're trying to make five seasons total so three more seasons of just them kinda being weird and toxic? doesnt make sense imo

especially since we see how lottie and nat had that weird sort of relationship as adults, and how lottie is the one who killed travis technically, and with the travis boner situation it just feels like lottie is so involved in this couples story.

so my idea is that in the teen timeline travis and nat are fighting maybe its lottie related maybe its something about nat being the new antler queen maybe its something else entirely but travis ofc starts trying to find comfort in lottie who, with her personality, would immediately try and guide him and this pisses nat off ofc.

now in my head, this is sort of like a love triangle: nat wants travis to just focus on her and care for her but as much as he loves nat he's intrigued with lottie but lottie is more intrigued with nat. (not necessarily saying travis likes lottie or lottie likes nat i think its more complicated than that).

so lottie and nat sort of get closer and nat is getting annoyed w lottie for comforting travis but then nat sort of finds comfort in lottie as well? like somewhere in between romantic and just lottie being a good person. i think they might even have sex but its less of a love thing or a passion thing its more spiritual if that makes sense.

i think nat would automatically shut lottie down after that and lotties left confused and hurt maybe even thinking she likes nat (which liike i said before i think its more complicated than that).

now my delulu gay ass loved this theory like oh lotties just the side chick but she really liked nat and nat didnt like lottie back til they were adults but then she went and died. however - and im just 100% running wild with this - if this is true and nat kinda left lottie stranded then when lottie said "shes my friend" and nat said "is that what we are" wouldnt really make sense. it would be the other way around. like i said, this is a huge stretch but i thought maybe instead of nat just hurting lottie, lottie hurt nat back.

i think after lottie and nat have sex, lottie is hurt so she goes and finds comfort in someone she knows would be willing. travis. her and travis have sex, out of pure passion from travis' side and out of hurt from lottie. its a co-dependence sort of thing between the three of them. it does feel very shauna/jackie/jeff coded but i do think this theory is kind of realistic.

i think something like this will def happen except for the lottienat sex scene thats the only thing im iffy about but as a lottienat thruther i really want it to happen. i do think theyre leading up to lottie getting involved with these two but ultimately travis and nat get back together (but travis and lottie dont really end off on bad terms which is why travis feels comfortable reaching to lottie as an adult).

tldr: teen nat and travis are getting distant, they both look to lottie for comfort, lottie and nat end up fucking before nat sort of ghosts her so then lottie fucks travis but ultimately travis and nat get back together.

Yandere Losers Club Headcanons

tw; kidnapping but like...less organized and only mentioned a little bit, manipulation, violence, drugging, hypochondria, forced religion,

-he is much to his dismay like his mom

-He's like a constant nurse, even when you promise your fine! Hitting your knee on a rock hurt for sure, but its not like your going to die..well hopefully not, maybe he's right? thoughts like those will become common as he worms his worries into your mind

-He's willing to share, but only with the club, he continues to promise that its what's best for you when he gives you a prescription of Cyclobenzaprine, just enough to not give you too much serotonin syndrome, but a little extra joy is normal! Not being able to get up just means he needs to get you another prescription or eight! You trust him, dont you?

-Eventually when you try to distance yourself, all the drugs hes been giving you, all the prescriptions you now dont take will come crashing down on you. Hes not going to necessarily mock you when the kidnapping happens and you go through extreme stress and withdrawl...but this wouldn't have happened if you!-

-He gets along best with stan and mike, since all three want what's best for you

-He has his problems with, surprisingly, bev. She got you hurt once and he still hasn't completely forgiven her though he will back her up when you try and vent to him about her manipulating you

-Your overreacting! hes hurt you think she would ever spread rumors about you when she was bullied herself. shame, shame, shame on you

-Manipulation to the max, she will make you want to spend time with her. There is no other option

-She's one of the more patient of the group though, when you finally start to distance yourself she will calmly help create a plan to help bring you home. You will inevitably be back after all whether its due to drug dependency or the loser club knocking you out on your way back from a party, is up to the universe

-She wouldnt hurt you to a certain point, if she believes its for the greater good then your tough out of luck. But she prefers to just make you feel guilty and dependent

-she gets along best with stan and ben, as the other two are too scared to stop her

-Hes...trying

-Its not that he doesnt want you to not be a tad scared of him, but you make it so difficult! I mean, hes the worst at hiding his tendencies about you

-He doesnt fully get why you get bothered when he curses out your crush? What could possibly be wrong?

-Dont worry, he would never hurt you EVER. Well, not on purpose, a few scrapes on an adventure is different!

-He gets along best with mike and bill, as they both enjoy going on adventures with you as well

-Eddie and him clash sometimes, mainly just because of eddies naturally overprotective nature around you getting hurt

-Mike is a bit more gentle, hes one of the few who feels guilt about what hes doing

-Hes also very jealous of the others at times, and although hed never take it out on you..sometimes he gets clingy when he thinks you might be prefering the others over him in any capacity of the sense

-It goes without saying that he wouldn't hurt you, but he cant bring himself to rat on the others when the kidnapping happens. He locks the guilt even further back in his mind at that point and refuses to acknowledge when you call them crazy

-He gets along best with eddie and bill, all three are deeply concerned for your safety just about constantly

-Pomegranate??? When he's especially feeling in debt to god for giving you to him, he encourages you to pray! before bed...when you wake up...before eating....whenever you feel like leaving him...yknow when you should be grateful for things!

-If your not super religious he's...ok with that. Sometimes he may wish you were willing to engage with that stuff but he tries not to bring it up too much

-Besides that, hes somewhat tame. But he doesn't feel guilty

-He goes with the vibe of the group so if you do something wrong or when the kidnapping comes around and they feel you need repercussions he's not going to stand up for you but he wont be cruel to you

-He gets along well with bill and mike, theyre all pretty chill with you

-You wont know hes a yandere unless they kidnap you, he's a scrawny little guy with a stutter who is barely keeping on after georgie's death...do your really think hed ever do stuff like that?!

-You help him with his stutter, your one of the big reason he tries to overcome it when hes a bit older

-Theres not much he does besides a bit of manipulation about him feeling guilty for what happened to his brother, after all, who wouldn't feel bad for this poor guy!

-He gets along best with bev, they both like each other...and you so it works out for them to share you

[nataliescatorccioapologist]

I unfortunately feel very pessimistic about Lottienat this season... I was somewhat hopeful for more of them in the 90s timeline given Lottie passing on the crown to Nat (for example Lottie trying to guide Nat, Nat feeling resentment due to the responsibility, etc, I could see a storyline there) and possibly paralleling the present with Lottie having an internal struggle between her belief in the Wilderness and its power and it causing such a tragic thing like Nat's death (like my dream plot would be Lottie ultimately having to double down on Wilderness, needing to convince herself in the Wilderness' greater good, that it loves Nat and she is in good hands with it, otherwise Nat's death, which she would partly blame herself for given she started the hunt, is for nothing).. But with every new bit of info on season 3 I feel worse..

For starters, at that panel them mentioning they're against fanservice and don't bring input from the fans into the writer's room. I do feel like this is pretty pointed, but not limited to, shipping. And the main fandom ships are Taivan, Jackieshauna and Lottienat. And of the three, Lottienat is the only one that's not canon/completely embeded in the narrative. So as soon as I saw that, my expectations, even platonically, kinda dropped to zero.

Then that photoshoot dropped with Misty wearing Nat's jacket and in another interview the writers were talking about how Nat's death impacts Misty the most, though the repercussions are felt for all of the women. So Nat's death ultimately doesn't affect Lottie more than the other women, implying her feelings dont go deeper (romantically, platonically) than the other women's do. And I feel like that's pretty crap generally, like even taking off my Lottienat goggles, given Lottie spent the last season helping Nat recover and ultimately played a part in what happened, I feel like no way she wouldnt also feel worse than the others (aside from Misty who literally did it), but whatever. I think she ultimately is doubling down on the Wilderness/this being the greater good, but not out of grief, which sucks.

Regarding the season getting more gay, my complete shot in the dark theory is actually Lottieshauna. Present day Shauna is now their new queen, according to the writers. And Shauna, unlike Nat, is someone who craves that type of power/recognition, and doesn't shy away from her darker side. This, coupled with a Lottie who's all in on the Wilderness again, I could see going somewhere. I could also see this tying to a theme of a Shauna who's been repressed, finally letting go, in terms of both her darker impulses, along with sexuality (and possibly calling back to homoerotic Jackieshauna?). Plus, Lottie had an interest in Callie from the moment she met her "she's so powerful", paralleling wilderness baby. Shauna most embodies the wilderness (as the writers said), and Lottie is the wilderness' prophet/serves the wilderness. So whether romantic or not, I do think Lottieshauna is gonna be a central dynamic this season.

In terms of the 90s timeline, given the tendency for parallels, I don't think we'll get much, if any, Lottienat. Especially if Nat loses the crown early on. I feel like we'll probably get a lot of isolated Nat or some Nat/Ben, before he probably kicks the bucket. And most likely Mistynat, since I feel like they gotta develop that at some point in the teen timeline, at the very least from Misty's side, to make sense of why she was so attached to Nat and it'd make sense to do so now to parallel her grieving Nat in the present. I can see this especially once Nat gets isolated, potentially exiled, with Misty possibly feeling a kinship towards her as another fellow outcast.

I was also thinking, with that intial teaser with the drop date, with what looks like Travis's hands around Lottie's neck, whatever that context is... we'd probably be getting more of the two of them to some extent as well given they have to maintain some kind of relationship in order for them to remain in contact post rescue.

Ultimately, as a Lottienat girlie I have dropped my expectations to zero going forward :(((

Ooh great predictions here, really interesting read!

•I love the idea of Lottie struggling with her belief in the Wilderness and her resentment of it for taking Natalie. Such a great internal struggle there that I hope they do end up exploring in S3.

•I know the writers said that Misty will be the most affected by Nat’s death, but I don’t think that means Lottie won’t be extremely affected by it as well. The writers said all of the characters will experience the effects of it. I think Misty obviously has the most guilt to grapple with as she was the one who killed her and she felt that Nat was her best friend so she is clearly going to struggle the most. But I don’t think that rules out Lottie struggling with Nat’s death, too.

I think Lottie will struggle with guilt of being partially responsible for Nat’s death and fear of the harm she is capable of causing others, but she will justify Nat’s death by telling herself that it was an honorable sacrifice to the Wilderness. At the end of season 2, we saw that Lottie was sobbing after Nat died, but she told Tai and Van “We gave it what it wants.” I feel like the expression on her face (that desperate denial) when she says this really shows us the internal battle she is going through. Grieving deeply but telling herself Nat needed to die. I think most of Lottie doubling down on the Wilderness is her way of coping with all of the loss and trauma she has experienced. She has to justify it and believe it was for the greater good; she has to believe there was a purpose for it in order to cope with the grief and terror of it all. The same applies to her feelings around Nat’s death.

•I do think the writers are at least partially referring to Lottienat when they say they are not listening to fan service. I unfortunately don’t think we’ll ever have Lottie and Nat kissing or anything like that. But I do think there’s a possibility of some more subtext, questionable interactions, or some canonical hinting that they have feelings for each other but will never act on them (or one of them having feelings for the other and it not being requited). But there’s no way those two are ever blatantly getting together, I’m sorry y’all😔

•So I’ll be honest…I have never been a huge fan of Lottie/Shauna. I’m not against it or anything I just personally don’t see the appeal of a romantic dynamic between them. That being said, I agree that Lottie and Shauna’s storylines will be very intertwined this season. I think Lottie will definitely take an interest in Callie and will argue that Callie has a connection to the Wilderness that needs to be explored. We saw in the promo pics that Lottie is going to be at Shauna’s house, which I can only assume is Callie-related. And, if Shauna does end up taking the throne from Nat in the teen timeline, I can see Lottie training her up to be the Antler Queen and being her advisor. This would be paralleled with Lottie and Callie in the adult timeline. I don’t see anything romantic happening between Lottie and Shauna, though.

•I am also worried about a lack of Lottienat interactions in the teen timeline due to the show’s tendency to parallel the teen and adult timelines. That’s a major worry for me about Nat’s arc this season in general. My hope is that Lottienat interactions in the teen timeline will be paralleled with Lottie dealing with Nat’s death. I am hoping Lottie will be on Nat’s side and will believe in her leadership (especially given Lottie’s “You were always its favorite” line in the Season 2 finale). I’m hoping that Lottie and Nat are actually allies this season, and that is part of why Nat resents her so much in the adult timeline (because she blames Lottie for leading her towards the Wilderness and all of the bad things Nat did as the leader of the group).

•More Mistynat in the teen timeline is basically a guarantee, which I am excited for! They have to start developing their relationship more in the teen timeline to justify Misty’s grief in the adult timeline. So far we’ve barely gotten any scenes of Misty and Nat interacting as teens. I think they might bond over not wanting to kill Coach Ben, and being outcasts like you said. I also think that Misty loves being a loyal follower to whoever is in charge, so we’ll see her being very loyal to Nat in the teen timeline.

•And we’ll definitely get more Lottie and Travis scenes. I really need to know what that choking scene is about. I like their dynamic and I think their interactions are interesting, I am just praying that nothing romantic is going to happen between them, I would personally hate that🤞🤞

[mayzingly]

all the s2 ep3 parts ruined with yapping

!!SPOILERS, IF YOU HAVENT WATCHED ANY OF THEM GO WATCH THEM!!

I haven’t seen an episode be split up in parts since s1 ep10, so either Brittany decided to do it in parts instead of all at once because she knew we would complain about it literally being three months since the last one, or THEYRE COOKING

^^^^^^^^

so the episode starts with them walking on a path, which means im allowed to assume that Pyrare and Ajacenus went in the forest and then got ajavex from somewhere.

first thing I notice right off the bat is how enthusiastic they are about beating their sister up😭😭 like y’all are forgetting that whatever injuries ajaceare gets, ajacent has to deal with. they just don’t fade once she becomes uncorrupted, do they

that’s all I had to say about the first part, since it was surprisingly more boring than I remember

^^^^^^^^

this is my favorite out of the prevs.

the episode starts with ajaceare running like she just got 500$ from her mom and was told she could spend it on anything. dub then asks her how collecting pieces has been going. she pulls out a BIG ASS BAG. if im correct there are 20 artists featured in jsab minus the ones that already gave their pieces and some of them are one timers (avenza, pegboard nerds (iirc), plesco, silva hound, nanobii, TECHNICALLY omnitica, etc etc) so like where did she get all them pieces???

there are multiple theories about who those people could be, but I choose to believe theyre 2/5 out of Shirobon because

THATS A TAIL. AND YOU KNOW WHAT HAS A TAIL? A FOX. AND YOU KNOW WHATS A SONG BY SHIROBON IN JSAB? FOX!!! TOTES DIDNT RUN ON ONE HOUR OF SLEEP LAST NIGHT😃😃😃😃

also, I hope this is just a transition because OTHERWISE HOW DID SHE NOT NOTICE THEM.

one sentence to describe this episode: tri-py.

anyways, onto the next one. you better get your popcorn ready cause im about to RANT.

*cracks knuckles*

and OF COURSE SHES ON A TREE.

why is literally every monster either corrupted or a pacifist in tpc. like YALL GOT FIGHTING SKILLS, USE EM “don’t you know we monsters never attack shapes??” That’s only for YOU, your SAILOR MOON HAVING ASS HAIR LOOKING ELDER SISTER, and “SAILOR MOON”’S BITCHASS BARRACUDA HAVING FRIEND.

girl. im sorry but if I was a monster id be throwing these hands left and right.

“How could you have gotten corrupted like this?” gee idk, maybe a corrupted person touched her!??? Shocking wow “You’re supposed to stay in the mountains like the rest of us!!” bro shes 1000, im pretty sure shes able to not be huddled under u all the time.

“Now give me your pieces!!”

again, this makes

NO.

FUCKING.

SENSE!!!

IF SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT PYRARE, SHE WOULDVE SAID “Give me HIS pieces!” But instead shes saying “Your”.

I don’t know WHY the hell Ajacenus and ajavex would even have pieces, because it’s clear that they don’t have the triangle symbol like every other group member, but even if they did, IT WOULD BE INCOMPLETE BECAUSE AJACENUS IS SUPPOSED TO BE WICKED - AVENZA AND AJAVEX IS DEADLOCKED - F-777!!! SEE HOW ITS TWO DIFFERENT ARTISTS???

AND PLUS, EVEN IF SHE DID JUST MEAN PYRARE, HE WOULDNT HAVE A SINGLE PIECE BECAUSE THEY HAVENT GONE TO THE LAND OF TRIANGLES YET!!!

CAUSE I KNOW DAMN WELL SHE DIDNT FORGET TO ANIMATE THE HAIR DETAILS. I DONT GET WHY THEYRE LEFT OUT OF THIS, THEY COULDVE USED THE SHIELD FROM HER DRESS INSTEAD!!

PYRARE, MOVE!!! QUIT BEING LAZY!!! MOVE YOUR FACE!! DUMBAS-

AND THEN YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO CLAP. BRO.

BROOOO🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

one sentence to describe this episode: BRITTANY COOKED BUT NOBODYS HUNGRY🔥🔥

last and definitely least, is the 4th part. now, the whole video was a bossfight so I don’t have much to say except SHE GOT PUFF PONYTAILS YAAAAAAAAA

I hope she isn’t batshit ugly or I might just remove s2 ep3 part 5 from my consciousness once it comes out

…yeah I had to remove it from my consciousness because WTH is this

“What happened to me?” Girl do you have the big D? (dementia)

HAHAHHH THE STUPID FACE HE MADE IN THE HALLOWEEN SHORT IS BACK, only thing I’m happy about. However…

“It isnt right for a male to hit a female” dude sybau. you throw hands all you want if you feel provoked. pussy.

anyways, onto dub. his section was the only entertaining part. Seeing him tweak like that genuinely made me go “😧” IRL

“Which caretaker is it!? I swear if it’s the anxious one…” made me BUST OUT laughing. Though I do wonder what he would’ve done if the flower lied to him and said it was “the anxious one” who I’m assuming is cube.

“So you decided to come out of retirement?” im curious about this, because… how does he even go into retirement in the first place?

though, I’m gonna talk about three things here.

1. I think (Altered) finally gives us an answer to what Circusic meant in episode 2. “The same way you are!” So we all saw him get revived by the reaper and turn into circubit, so when he says that I can only guess that Iris got revived that same way. You get revived, but with some perks, aka ALTERATIONS.

2. Every flower is infected? That means George is probably back.

3. Circusic is infected??? Either he doesn’t know that hes uncorrupted; or HES BAAAACK!!!!

11!!! vani you’re so close, only 80k words to go

what led you to choosing jason’s story? you obviously planned for him to die from the beginning but what was the process of figuring out how to make it happen and justifying it?

dont even joke abt 80k ill do it sgdjdkejehekken

re: jason - i knew i wanted to kill him because he dies in canon, and i actually dont hate that he dies in canon, i just hate that it was done in a series that wasnt his own. i actually quite like the whole idea of jason choosing to sacrifice himself over piper with her not even knowing shit about it - the books made it even more heartbreaking because theyre broken up, but i didnt want to do that, so i made him just hide it vehemently instead.

another reason he had to die was because in my fic, he is older than percy by about a month, and i really wanted to drive it home that all the children of the big three who were older than percy and died (jason, thalia, bianca) did so because they were IN THE WAY. theres no nice way to put it. percy was the child/hero of the prophecy, and them being alive just fucked shit up timeline-wise and confused everything. jason figures this out pretty quick, though. it's a slim comfort to him, knowing that even though he wont be around, percy will survive. that's why he entrusts him, out of everyone, to take care of piper.

my process in stretching this out just came from outlining this fic to hell and back. it made sense to have his nemesis be krios, since jason does kill him in canon. i knew he wouldnt make it to the final battle, and logically his death would serve has a good place to leave off ch4. that meant he had to leave by the end of ch3 and find out about his fate by ch1/2 (i chose 1). this would give him more than enough time to come up with a plan and come to terms with his fate.

i wanted to make jason's arc about the slow acceptance of death. i had an aunt who battled cancer for a long, long time, and i watched her cycle slowly through each worsening stage with a grim acceptance. in her last years, though, she told me she was choosing to live life and she was using her time to appreciate what she had. i visited her days before she passed and while she put on a brave face in front of me, she confessed to my mom that she was scared, and i wondered for a long time how long she spent hiding her pain from others just to save us from sharing hers.

jason's journey is largely inspired by my aunt. he knows death is looming over him, but he chooses to hide his own anxiety in favor of allowing his friends to be happy. the only time he shows his fear is as he dies in piper's arms, when he has nothing to lose by hiding it anymore.

piper was his greatest source of joy and he knows she has the capability to love again, but if she died, he knows he would never be able to. and yes! it's a selfish choice, as piper tells him, but one he believed was necessary.

through the course of wcwsthwas, jason learns he's lived a good life. he found his family and found love and true friendship. he wouldnt give them up for the world - so he chose to give himself up instead.

IDK IF I ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION I JUST RAMBLED AYSGSICYSIVYAGIV SORRY BUT TY FOR ANOTHER GOOD ONE!!!

helloooo 2 and regulus for the ask game pretty please

yippppeeee hellooo 💖

how i feel about this character

i hate a love-hate relationship with regulus… i love my version of regulus, and my beautiful mutuals.. but i am so fiercly against the widely accepted fanon regulus who’s just. draco ?? 😭 i love my little guy but i love him for his depravity, his wretchedness, his failguy tendencies, the superiority complex he can’t quite shake even if he’s redeemed, his little-brother neediness… i am so deeply uninterested in ’good regulus black’ lmao. ive gone into depth about how i feel about him here !!

all the people i ship with this character

whew!!! lesbian regulily, regtunia, bartylus, bellareg, reguline, unrequited starcest, t4t lesbian regsev & jegulily (which is weird because i hate jegulus and usually prefer failmarriage jily but there’s just something about the Three of them that makes sense to me……

anyway. my favorite romantic pairings for regulus is bellareg & lesbian regulily. one deeply unhealthy dynamic vs a deeply super healthy dynamic. balance <3

favorite non-romantic otp for this character

regdora is deeply special to me 🤍

my unpopular opinion about this character

good god. we’ll be here all day… as i said, i hate ’good regulus black’ + the hc that he took the mark against his will lmao/or because his parents forced him to. my guy had voldy posters on his wall… like come on now.. why do we have to mold and shape our favorite blorbos into redeemable characters… that’s so unbelievably uninteresting to me. isn’t it more interesting to delve into his psyche as it’s presented in canon, how he had voldy posters on his walls but STILL ended up betraying him in the end. the letter… god. does everything have to be categorized as either good or bad.. where’s the nuance.. people HATE nuance when it comes to regulus black i swear. i hate cheapening the things he did of his own free will and that means BOTH taking the mark and going to the cave

also. i dont think he’s short :-/ <- you wouldnt believe the amount of hate ive gotten over this

one thing i wish wouldve happened with this character in canon

well. the bellareg marriage obviously… the bellareg marriage au is basically a canon divergence where everything is the same except bella was always promised to sirius instead of rodolphus. so when he is disowned, she ends up marrying regulus <3

my otp:

bellareg………. they’re genuinely so special to me …

hc fact:

he has a sweet tooth and drinks milk simply because he likes it. like a Freak

Draco x non-house-specific she/her!reader

Empty Space

Dragging your suitcase behind you, you began counting the steps you took, to further extend your effort of keeping your mind occupied by anything but the weather. If it had been snowing you could forgive the cruel London cold, and even then the likelihood of your favourite kind of weather bringing you joy was next to none, given the circumstances. Darting your gaze upwards, you manage to avoid walking straight into someone who was staring down at their phone while you swerved around them. As you neared the station, you spotted something from the corner of your eye and quickly turned to investigate it further. Despite it being impossible to see him in the muggle world, you found yourself convinced that you were staring at the faint reflection of Draco Malfoy in a shop window. Instinctively you spun around to face him, but nobody was there, and when you looked back towards the window the echo of him had disappeared. Shame filled you, and you lowered your head once more, continuing your brisk walk to the train station.

I don’t see you,

You’re not in every window I look through.

After all these years of attending Hogwarts, you would think that by now you’d know the route to the platform off by heart, but still you found yourself puzzled over the map you held in your hands as you followed the route you had carefully drawn out with a green marker. When you neared the wall that led you to your platform, you were greeted by the sight of half a dozen first years making their way to platform nine and three quarters. You couldnt help but smile at their excitement, but as the memories of the start of your first year flooded your mind and you remembered catching a glimpse of a certain platinum haired boy before he crossed through the wall, your smile fell.

And I don’t miss you,

You’re not in every single thing I do.

Little did you know on the other side of the wall, he, too, was staring longingly while his friends stood around him, gossiping about things that never mattered to him. He was waiting desperately to see you come through the wall, but his friends ushered him onto the train just seconds before he could have seen you again. The two of you missed each other by a fraction of a second, and neither of you knew.

Nor did you know that you sat in train carriages that were next to each other, both of you staring out of the windows with similar but simultaneously completely different thought processes. While you felt shame, embarrassment, and a desperate yearning for the boy that had left you behind, Draco felt guilt and a sense of stubborn determination; he was at war with himself, trying as hard as he could to constantly convince himself that you were never right for him.

I don’t think we’re meant to be,

And you are not the missing piece.

The carriage you were sat in held other students who were thankfully not in your year, and therefore wouldnt want to create small talk about what you did over the holiday. Thoughts clouding your mind had left you utterly oblivious to their conversation, until one of them spoke a name that previously set your heart on fire, but more recently was the cause for a pit forming in your stomach.

“What do you think is going on with Draco Malfoy?” One of the younger students asked the others.

Immediately your ears were tuned into their conversation, but your gaze stayed fixed on the raindrops hitting the train window.

“I dont know, and I really dont care. He’s stopped bullying us and seemingly everyone else, that’s all that matters.” Their friend responded bluntly.

Another chirped up. “I guess you’re right, it just seems a little…odd? It makes me uncomfortable that he just walks past us now, and he looks so sad all the time.”

The pit in your stomach grew until you feared it would swallow you completely. You dont want to admit that their conversation worries you, but you cant help it.

I won’t hear it,

Whenever anybody says your name.

Ever since the day he walked away from you last year, you have done your best to avoid seeing him at every opportunity possible. During the classes you shared and had previously been work partners in, you quietly asked your professors to assign you a seat next to literally anybody else, because after what had happened you simply couldnt face him. Anytime you werent required to be in class, you stayed in your dormitory, because there you could be sure that Draco would not see you. But there were times you couldnt avoid him, such as every meal, and it was those occasions that reminded you of why you couldnt be in his presence anymore. Because you couldnt help but glance up from your food to look at him, expecting to see him laughing and having the time of his life without you, but never being greeted by a sight. Instead, the sight your eyes landed on, was Draco staring down at his food with his chin in his hand, not eating, and not talking. Even with how evidently out of character he was acting, the sight of him was enough to set your body alight, and that was a feeling that should have ended.

You didnt know that he was fully aware of just how badly you were trying to avoid him. Despite what he had said and done to you, the hurt he felt when you first moved seats in potions class brought a pain to his chest that he was surprised by. Of course, the moment he had ended things he had doubted whether it was the right thing to do, but he had managed to mostly convince himself after that. However, upon realising the physical and emotional distance that was growing by the day that he had caused, Draco fell into a terrible despair as the side of him that he believed to be irrational told him that what he had done was the furthest away from what was right. His appetite disappeared, because the only thing he felt starved of was the warmth of the fire in his heart that only you could start.

And I won’t feel it,

Even when I’m burstin’ into flames.

The day he walked away was something you wished you could forget, and ever since it happened you wished you could forget every moment you had spent with him. After being cold towards you for three days, you confronted Draco in the hallway, standing in his way as he tried to walk to his next class. You questioned him, but not in a way that was even slightly accusing, all you wanted to know was if he was alright, if you had done something to make him act the way he was, and that killed him. He had tried so hard to make you angry at him because that would make what he had planned to do so much easier, but you could never hate him. With a blank expression, and eyes that wouldnt meet yours, Draco explained that he no longer felt love for you, that he wondered if he had actually ever loved you at all because of how quickly he managed to fall out of love with you. If looks could kill, the way your face contorted in pain as your heart fractured inside your chest could have sent Draco straight to the stairway of heaven. Or, more reasonably for what he had done, the long road down to hell. He did his best to stay composed and stop himself from looking at you, but just a half second glance at you was enough to send him speed walking past you without another word.

As you stood there, frozen, you didnt see Draco hurriedly wiping away the tears rolling down his cheeks as he rushed into the bathroom down the hall. He stared at his reflection in the mirror and compartmentalised how he felt, deciding that the pain in his heart was simply caused by how obviously he had hurt you, and was definitely not a result of him forcing himself to let you go. It couldnt be that, because what he did was the right thing to do for you, and he wasnt allowed to regret that, not even for a second.

I don’t regret the day I left,

I don’t believe that I was blessed.

But as hard as he tried to tell himself it was right, Draco was losing the battle within himself. If his efforts to keep you safe from harm meant that you were so broken that you hid yourself away from everyone, had he really kept you safe at all?

And no matter what you told yourself, you could never truly wish that you would forget every memory you ever made with Draco. You knew the spell that could do just that, but even if those memories meant nothing to him anymore, why would you voluntarily erase the happiest moments of your life? 

Neither of you were being honest, to yourselves or each other.

I’m probably lyin’ to myself again.

While you welcomed the feeling of loneliness, Draco couldnt stand it. You accepted it as what your life was going to be, you knew that nobody else could ever come close to him, the silence couldnt be filled by anyone but him, and if you couldnt have him you would live with silence. But Draco couldnt bear it. He became so desperate for any form of romantic connection that he resorted to sleeping with Pansy, but after just one incident, he quickly came to the same realisation you did: if he couldnt have you, he would be by himself, because nobody could possibly compare to you.

I’m alone in my head,

And lookin’ for love in this stranger’s bed,

But I don’t think I’ll find it,

‘Cause only you could fill this empty space.

While Draco battled his opposing convictions, you wallowed in your conclusion. If Draco had so easily dropped you, how could you possibly believe that his love for you was ever real? He told you himself that he was unsure of that exact point, and that only made it more impossible for your mind to argue against, so you gave up. Although you werent letting your grades slip, your professors noticed the change in you. In classes, you were less responsive, less involved, and the humour you brought to every class you attended seemed to evaporate into the air. Initially, Draco’s reaction was much the same, but after the holiday, he often didnt bother attending classes at all. This, naturally, filled you with a worry that you resented for still existing, and it sent your mind spiralling off with potential answers that explained why he was so frequently absent. Could it be that he really hated you so much that he couldnt stand being in the same classroom as you anymore? You turned into a machine that got it’s work done and worried about Draco, and nothing else. You were lost the moment you lost him.

Overthinking.

I don’t know who I am without you.

The anxiety that the situation brought you gave an even more noticeable problem to the attention of your professors, who all quietly discussed both yours and Draco’s wellbeing. Of course, the professors knew what Draco was going through in his transition into a Death Eater, and they agreed that keeping you in the dark was the best way to keep you safe, but was it worth losing the person you were before? His parents supported his actions too, regardless of their love for you and the happiness you brought Draco. That was part of the problem, he knew that so many people believed his actions to be right, and logically, they were. But he had to lie to you, break you into pieces so small that it wouldnt be possible for you to find a way back to loving him again. He let the words of his superiors instruct him to a fate worse than any mission the Dark Lord could test him with, a fate that was worse than death itself. Draco cheated the Dark Lord by pushing you away and keeping you oblivious as to what was going on, so that you couldnt be used as a pawn to test his obedience, but cheating the Dark Lord didnt go without consequences, and Draco was paying the price.

I’m a liar and a cheat,

I let my ego swallow me.

Draco hid in his dormitory when he was supposed to be in classes, avoiding you more than you had avoided him before, and for a different reason. You couldnt face him because you felt so suddenly insignificant and meaningless to him, while he couldnt face you because you were absolutely everything to him, and he could no longer fight the fact that if he saw you again he would do anything in his power to get you back. And because of how desperate he was to keep you safe, he forced himself even further away from you.

And that’s why I might never see you again.

Draco sat on the edge of his bed with his head in his hands, his throat raw from the past hour he had spent sobbing hysterically because his heart yearned for you so painfully. His swollen red eyes lifted their hooded gaze and stared out of the window at the snow that was falling, and his breath got caught in his throat. Winter was always your favourite time of year. He remembered the bright smile that would stay plastered on your face from the second the snow started falling until the moment it stopped, he remembered the relentless snowball fights, the laughter, your rosy cheeks, your soft mittens against his face as he kissed you. He broke, his body shivering as endless streams of tears fell from his eyes. Because of him, you may never feel such happiness again. He ruined you, and for that he is nothing short of a monster.

I’m alone in my head.

Noticing Draco’s absence again, you felt a gentle tug at your worn heartstrings, this had been happening for months now. You tried to distract yourself by glancing out of the classroom window. The sight of snowflakes dancing towards the ground brought a nostalgic warmth to you, and you wondered if wherever Draco was right now, he was looking at the snow too. Internally kicking yourself, you raise your hand and turn towards Professor McGonagall.

“Excuse me, Professor, but can I be excused for a moment, please?” You asked her politely.

Professor McGonagall’s eyes widened, she knew that whatever the reason was for your request, it was important enough for you to speak up for the first time in months, so she nodded, giving you permission to leave. Without any further hesitation, you rose from your seat and exited the classroom. No matter what Draco had said or done, both you and him would be alone if you didnt do something about it, because he’s far too stubborn to do so. The only way to resolve this was for you to try.

'Cause only you could fill this empty space.

After asking a few portraits if they had seen him, you were informed that Draco had hidden himself in his dormitory in the Slytherin quarters. Not a particularly clever hiding place, you thought to yourself as you approached the Slytherin entrance and spoke the password without even having to think about it. He’s almost made it easy for you to find him.

Standing in the doorway of the dormitory that he shares with the other Slytherin boys, your eyes immediately locked onto the sight of him crying into his hands, with his back to you, and his body facing the window.

“Draco…” You spoke softly from the doorway.

He silenced, and frantically rose to his feet, turning to face you with a well-rehearsed harsh expression that he should have known you could always see right through.

“Leave me alone.” Draco spat, but you could hear that the tone in his voice has defensive, he was scared.

“No.” You told him confidently.

“Didnt you hear me? Get out!” Draco pointed towards the door.

“Did you hear me? Did you ever hear me, all those times I said I’d never leave you? Just because you’ve left me doesnt mean Im going to do the same to you. So go ahead, get angry, ignore me entirely, cast a spell to throw me out of this room, because I will just come right back in! Im staying.”

Draco was stunned, he hadnt anticipated such a response from you, and it was enough to break his defences. He should have known, you would always be enough to get through to him.

'Cause only you could fill this empty space.

Draco crumbled before your eyes, and without sparing a second thought, you ran towards him and pulled him into your arms. With his defences destroyed, Draco had no reason to stop himself from wrapping his arms around you, holding you tighter than he ever had before, because he had made the mistake of letting you go.

“Merlin’s beard, (Y/N), I am so sorry, for e-everything! I lied to you, about everything, b-because I couldnt ask you t-to stay once you knew the truth, I couldnt do that to you, I couldnt put you in danger! It’s my job to keep you safe, and I sacrificed everything to do that, I lost you, and y-you are everything!” Draco stumbled over his words, his cries getting caught in his throat and causing his body to shiver in fear. “I-I couldnt ask you to keep loving me once you knew the truth.”

I couldn’t make you love me.

You tried to pull away from him slightly so that you could calm him down, but he cried out and held you flush against him. Rubbing circles into his back with one hand while running your fingers through his hair with the other, you gently shushed him until his breathing had calmed down considerably.

“Draco, I want you to listen to me. Whatever it is that’s going on, it will not stop me loving you, nothing has the power to do that. Tell me what’s scared you so much, and we can work through it, together. I promise you that whatever it is, we can handle it better together.” You spoke softly, continuing to reassure him with your actions as well as your words.

“I cant ask you to love a Death Eater, (Y/N).” Draco whimpered.

You shook your head. “I dont love a Death Eater.” Draco’s body stiffened at your words as he braced for you to break his heart, and you continued. “I love you, Draco, and you are not a Death Eater. I dont yet know your reasons, but I know that you did not enter into that through your own choice, because I know you. You dont have to ask for me to keep loving you under any circumstances, because I will continue to do so unconditionally.”

I couldn’t make you love me.

Draco’s previously swarming negative thoughts suddenly fell silent. He couldnt believe what he was hearing, but the more he thought about it he wondered how he could have ever thought you would say anything else.

“You know the danger you’re put in by being with me? I could be asked to kill you, or you could die at someone else’s hand because of me! Even if I dont have to ask you to love me through this, Im asking a lot of you in regards to putting yourself at risk. Staying away from me would be the best thing for you, my darling.” Draco gave one last feeble attempt at pushing you away, and you stepped back from him slightly. This time he let you go, because he thought you were saving yourself.

“We already tried staying away from each other and I’d rather not go through that again. We havent tried facing this together yet, so how about we give it a shot before you deem it to be impossible?” You smiled at him playfully, and he couldnt hold back the chuckle that fell from his lips.

“I suppose you’re right, but you know me, ever the pessimist.” Draco joked as he tucked a strand of hair behind your ear, gentle caressing your cheek with his fingertips as he did.

You reach up to hold his hand against your cheek. “And you know me, always the one to remind you that optimism isnt always a bad idea.”

He rested his forehead against yours, staring deeply into your eyes. “I tried so hard to make you hate me, you know.”

You tut at him. “And yet you didnt have to try at all to make me fall in love with you.”

Draco grinned down at you. “Didnt I?“

You rolled your eyes teasingly. "I didnt fall in love with you for the roses you sent me or the necklaces you’d buy me, those were things you made a conscious effort to do. But the way you smile at me, the secrets you confide in me, how you look at me when you think I cant see you, the way you make me feel whenever you’re with me, those are just a few of the things I fell in love with you for, because they were just so truly you. You couldnt have made me fall in love with you, you didnt even have to try.”

Draco smirked smugly. “I couldnt make you love me, you just couldnt help yourself, is that it?”

You sighed in mock disappointment at his response. “I see your ego is back in check!”

Draco laughed, taking his hands in yours and swinging them around in the gap between your bodies. "Hey, it’s not my fault, you’re bringing me back from the dead, I wasnt me without you!”

You giggled. “What do you need to fully bring you back, then? The kiss of life?“

His eyes lit up at the idea, and he nodded wordlessly, slowly leaning forward and closing his eyes to capture your lips with his own. The kiss is soft and brief, but it’s enough to reignite the fire shared between the two of you. Draco pulled away reluctantly and rested his forehead against yours, smiling down at you again.

"I dont think you could have purposefully made me fall in love with you either, but I’ve never been more thankful for such a perfect accident.”
