jj was one of the most beautiful brides you had ever seen. her dress fit her perfectly, it seemed to have been made especially for her, even though it belonged to her mother.

will looked at her as if she was the sky holding all of the stars. no one else was around as they danced, just the two of them, you could see it in their eyes.

you were kind of drunk on their love, from afar. and, of course, you might be a little inebriated because of the few champagne glasses you've had since the party started. in your defense, it was all penelope's fault, she offered you the first glass. your will to loosen up did the rest.

you almost fell down on your butt from the way henry pulled at your dress. you didn't blame him, he's been excited all night and he had to let it all out as much as he wanted. he yanked you closer to the spot he and jack were playing on the grass of the rossi household.

“uncle spencer told us the secret of his magic trick.” jack explained as you stared at the cards laid out in front of them. “but we can't remember it.”

a chuckled escaped your lips.

“and that's exactly why he told you.”

henry pouted, his blonde strands falling from behind his ear. giving him a soft smile, you brushed them back, booping his nose as he giggled in response.

“i know why you brought me here and I'm sorry to say that I have no idea how uncle spencer does his magic tricks.” you lament as they both protest in defeat. “he never told me. but I swear if he ever does, you'll be the first to know, okay?”

“promise?” jack hotchner raised his pinky and henry made sure to imitate him eagerly.

you nodded, intertwining your own pinky with theirs. “i promise.” you whispered, kissing both of their small cheeks before standing up. penelope and derek had approached your little group and you took advantage of that to walk inside the house and fetch a cup of water. your vision was starting to get a little blurry and that was the indication you had to know that your alcohol consumption was officially over for the night.

someone else seemed to share your train of thought.

“appreciating art?”

spencer was concentrated analysing one of the art pieces in the mansion's hallway. he didn't act startled at your presence, which meant he already felt you approaching beforehand. you stared down at your heels, wondering if they were too loud.

“it's an interesting painting,” you looked up as he said it. his eyes settled on you. “do you know this one?”

“a street scene.” you responded, shifting on your feet. your feet were starting to hurt. you can't remember for how long you have been on those heels. “can't remember the artist though.”

“paul fischer,” spencer promptly said. “it was painted in 1902. he was also known as copenhagen's painter because of how much he represented his homeland on his paintings.”

you let out a slow hum, walking past him to reach the kitchen. “over a century ago.”

“109 years ago.” he chuckled as you chugged down an entire glass of water and filled it up again. “thirsty?”

you lifted a finger, a silent request to wait. spencer leaned on the kitchen counter, observing you with a glint of amusement in his eyes.

“i think I may have...” you exhaled, “drank too much.”

spencer mumbled something that you weren't able to hear, but you didn't need to. you approached him slowly, also leaning on the countertop, the marble cold against your palms. narrowing your eyes at him, you said. “don't even say it.”

he had the decency to act bewildered though his lips betrayed him with a quirk on the edges. “say what?”

“you were teasing me just now.”

“i was not.” spencer raised a brow, sending a giddy smile your way. “i was simply stating that you can get carried away at parties.”

“i had two glasses.” you pouted, “maybe four.” you admitted, a half-assed lie. you had no idea how many you have had during the night. just that they were working really fast in your system.

the two of you stayed there. speaking in low voices, rather discreetly, as the party happened outside. the house was quiet but you could make out some loud voices from the open window.

your ears picked up a soft melody, and the voices quietened down. you figured it was the moment for some slow dancing.

“dance with me.”

you'd think you were the one who said that, given your state of mind a few minutes ago. spencer looked handsome in a suit, it was almost out of character for him, you never saw him without one of his sweater vests. you don't deny he's an attractive man. everything about him is attractive, not only the physical aspects but they did him justice alright.

those were the things you noticed when you were dating. and those are still the things you notice as you are exes. you wonder if there is anything you don't notice about spencer.

you froze at his outstretched hand.

oh, he said that.

is he inviting me to dance?

“me?” his grin made you blush. and to think you had been sober just now.

“yes.” he wriggled his fingers. “dance with me?” the tone of his voice carried a tinge of uncertainty.

your body responded before your mouth could. as your hand intertwined with his, the feeling of returning somewhere you had longed for so long squeezed your chest.

with your chin resting against his shoulder and the warmth of his touch enveloping your waist, the music didn't reach the kitchen anymore. you couldn't hear anything else but your heartbeat.

“you don't even like dancing.” you joked, letting him lead your swaying as you tried not to step on his feet.

his answer was closing the gap between the two of you, your bodies flush against each other. you didn't hesitate before laying your cheek on his shoulder. your fingers intertwined behind his neck, grazing against his uncovered skin.

it felt so familiar and normal that none of you flinched away. as if it was how it was supposed to be.

“i like it when I'm with you.” he said, breath tickling the side of your neck.

“the boys...” you drawled out, a smile stretching on your lips absentmindedly. “they asked me how you did your magic tricks. one of them, actually. the one with the cards.” his chuckled made his body shake a little.

“did they? but I told them.”

“you know kids don't learn it the first time. that's why you told them.”

“i can't just reveal my magic tricks like that, can I?” you pulled back a little to make sure he saw you glare at him. his grin didn't let you scowl much longer though.

shaking your head at him in faux disappointment was the worst thing you could have possibly done at that moment. spencer knew that quirk of lips as he knew his own brain and he recognized that tilt of head because of all the times you did that, it only meant one thing: you were about to tease him.

that was his weakness. your lazy smile along with your fluttering eyelashes. basically, your whole charming persona. you. you were his weakness. spencer has admitted that since he knew he was in love with you.

it used to overwhelm him to be this close to somebody, the warmth of two bodies colliding felt too much of a torture for him. until you came along and showed him what safety felt like.

he felt safe when your fingertips grazed the nape of his neck. when you laid your head on his shoulder and when you softly mumbled the song playing outside right by his ear.

you're right here and he's missing you.

isn't that crazy?

“that used to be my favourite song.” you said, caressing the spot behind his earlobe. his eyes were shut as his feet followed the slow rhythm of the melody.

he hummed, “it was all that you listened to for an entire month.” your laugh brought joy to him as he looked down at you. happiness looked good on you.

“yes.” you shrugged, touching his jaw gently. “but you enjoyed it.”

“i did.” he confessed. “it's calm. soothing.” like your voice. I never get tired of it.

he brushed a strand behind your ear. “is it not your favourite song anymore?”

and just like that, the light in your eyes dimmed. it might have been imperceptible if he wasn't that close. too close.

do people ever feel so comfortable around ex partners as he is with you right now? dancing to a song you used to sing it for him?

“it hurts to listen to it.” your voice cracked at the end of the sentence and you rested your head on his shoulder as if you were attempting to avoid his gaze. it physically painted him when you did that. “reminds me of you.”

he thought about apologising. he thought about asking why does it remind you of me and why would it hurt. but spencer was aware of the answer to both questions. he knew why you couldn't listen to it without memories swarming into your brain like a storm. he knew how hard it was and how much it absolutely crushed you that your favourite song reminded you of an ex lover. of him.

he chose to stay silent.

at the same time he wanted to spare you any emotional pain, he wanted to hear if you were hurting as much as he was. how unfair was that? loving you and having you in his arms but not being able to be with you like he wanted to?

was it hard for you too? did it make you want to take back the words you said just like he wanted to take back everything he had said? did it destroy you wholeheartedly?

spencer doesn't know for how long you stayed there at rossi's kitchen, swaying to a song that no longer played. at some point, you retracted your hand from his neck, lowering slightly to take off your high heels, immediately releasing a breath of relief.

and your touch lingered like a ghost. his soul was void. vulnerable and lonely. once again.

emily walked in the kitchen and you two acted as a couple that had been caught doing something wrong. you had been talking — dancing for just a previous moment — there wasn't anything wrong with that, was it?

spencer felt out of it all of a sudden. at one moment, he knows how to act around you, he feels as if he can touch you and hold you like he never missed his chance. and then, a second later, you're walking away and he's not stopping you from leaving.

“it's still my favourite song.”

and it was his, too.

a/n: the dancing part was definitely not inspired by mitski's song my love mine all mine.

OKAY I'm gonna do a big ask response here! There's a few I didn't grab which are mostly just people saying sweet things- to which honestly I can't thank you all enough 😭 it's so wild to me to see people enjoying my art so much

I'm gonna keep most of the replies under the cut since it's gonna get a bit long but I wanted to touch on this one real quick-

Absolutely anyone is free to use my art as an icon wherever! Just be sure to have something crediting somewhere and yeah absolutely go for it!

OH ALSO my submissions don't work on mobile for some reason? The formatting messes up I guess, but check out this awesome coloring!! I love how the layers of shading look 😭

LMAO okay so I've seen a good handful of older/mafia au designs for Floyd and Jade and a lot of them have either both of them with double sleeves or Floyd with sleeves and Jade with a back piece- though I've also seen somewhere both of them having one sleeve on the opposite side

Right now I'm just messing around so I don't have any official tattoo designs for either of them, but I do know I want Floyd with at LEAST the double sleeves, and Jade with some pieces he keeps hidden by mostly wearing business attire lmao

XBSISNK THANK YOU 😭😭 honestly drawing hair is one of my absolutley FAVORITE things to draw lmao, most of my ocs have long hair I just can't help it honestly

YES ABSOLUTLEY probably not too often but I could definitely see Azul going to bed and waking up to a very full bed lmao. Funnier yet because I think all three of them are the type to cling in their sleep when they have someone else beside them. They're just weird sea creatures used to small comfy spaces

I actually haven't thought about this! Honestly I think that would be really cool! Or even if he found that he had a specific shade range of color blindness as a human- though I could see Jade and Floyd taking advantage of that by doing something like giving him the wrong color shirt to wear that day or something lmao

Though you also reminded me! Eels also have terrible eyesight! So I've seen people both having the headcanon that the twins wear contacts, and also the headcanon that Azul needs glasses now because he did a deal to give part of his vision to both of them

Honestly it's really cool to think about! I don't know which headcanons here I like the most, but I love seeing them

Okay honestly I absolutley have to draw this because I LOVE this idea and part of why I'm answering this is to mentally catalogue that I need to draw this lmao

I also love this idea! Like at lunch, after classes before they go to work at the lounge, and after the lounge closes up for the night it just becomes the twins' gossip hour lmao

Because yeah they do spend a lot of time together, but they're still apart a lot, and there's no way they're not telling each other about all the nonsense they're getting up to once they meet back up

DBSISNSK DONT CRY LMAO I got a handful of questions about Niles I want to try to touch on here

Absolutley he wouldn't mind helping anyone set up games on their computer lmao, especially if it's a hard to get visual novel that he's a fan of because he's the type to want everyone to play and love the games he loves

He's definitely dropped hundreds of hours into "creature crossing" with one of those islands with tons of customization and cute shit, and his "island creatures" are mostly cats with a couple dogs and the pegasus LMAO

Also while he's not directly inspired by any specific character, since he's in Ignihyde he does have a little Greek mythos theming and has some inspiration from Eros, which is also why he's very "love" themed/romantic

OH MAN I'm actually not 100% sure which moray I think the twins would be, I'd have to look more into them specifically

But I did want to mention that my idiot self is tempted to make Yet Another Oc (though I probably won't post this one since I feel very oc heavy already) that's also a moray- but specifically a snowflake just because wow I want to make a design around the coloration they have 😭

ALSO!!! Regarding Eel Anon!

I wasn't able to screenshot everything you sent but it was absolutley fun hearing about the dorm idea you have!! I love hearing about new dorm concepts and I've seen a couple nightmare before christmas dorms so it's neat to see the different ideas people have! Also no way do Eri and Rika sound like knock offs of the twins lmao they both sound really fun and I like how they juxtapose one another- also how you have their whole family worked out??? It just reminded me I need to do some more backstory work for my group lmao but honestly it was really cool reading about them so don't even worry about long asks or anything!

Okay so I watched Wish (yeah the actual official movie) today for the first time.

Yeah.........I dived head first into fanon stuff lmao

But Im gonna be completely honest, @ annymation 's Wish (plz don't ping her T-T) felt more Disney than the ACTUAL Disney movie. Ik everyone has said this but I have no other way to describe the actual film other than SEVERELY disappointing.

But the reason I'm writing this post is because of the note worthy soundtrack.

Basically, background music analysis-

It looks like they have re-used the ones from the old plot.

I'm a huge music gal so the first thing I pay attention to is music.

In the deleted scenes, you can hear a certain music playing in the background. Those music fit those scenarios but in the actual movie those very music have been re-used but often times, they feel out of place.

Such as Star seeing the wishes for the first time has the same music which plays when Sabino tells her about how his wish never coming true will never stop hurting him and she should pursue her wishes instead of giving up on them while being young.

Just.....see the two scenes and you'll find the music in the second much more fitting and impactful. Then there's another piece of music used in the scene where Magnifico threatens Amaya in the film, it's the same music used in the villainous couple deleted scene.

Incredibly ironic, indeed. But the music fits better for the deleted scene. You can judge it yourself.

Then there's another scene where Asha and her family run away, this scene which re-uses the deleted chase scene music where Evil Amaya and her soldiers chase after Asha, Starboy and Valentino. However, unlike the deleted scene, there were practically no such stakes involved for such an intense piece. It felt out of place.

And obviously, "At All Costs" is another example on how drastically the story was changed lol (basically love --> whatever bs we got in the film)

I can go on with my examples but yea....just by the soundtrack I can tell that the script was changed last minute because they didn't have enough time to formulate original compositions to fit the now-new scenes.

Not to mention, Asha felt somewhat selfless in the deleted scenes but in the film.....she seemed so selfish. She seemed to just care enough for her own family but fuck everything else. The movie presented it as such :(

Regardless, I watched the film to hopefully find some remnants of the deleted plot (which I did lol Star with the red wool yarn and Valentino complimenting how Star looked like him when Star wore a pajama which resembled the one which Valentino wore in the deleted scene, the authors definitely did put in some trinkets of references but yea.... everything else was burnt into ashes. They did Simon dirty cmon

I came back more sad ngl but it fueled my passion to take my detective and writer glasses and piece together what the true story of Wish was judging from concept art, deleted scenes, info bits etc, even further. I have conceptualized a story in my head (filled in the gaps of info with my imagination) and I'm sorta ready to create my own story haha (I still need to iron out some bits though) Im excited about it BUT if I complete it, I'll definitely post it here!

Late night writing post-Logan x Kaia headcanons-Part 1

Don't mind about this project, I wanted to do this at work but work had been making me feeling f***ed up along with the long journey from work to home and vice versa plus waking up very early in the morning at around five a.m in the morning thus this is something I wanted to do it for a very long time; everyone.

Anyway, consider this post is the first and official post of Logan x Kaia writing as we get to know them better. 😊

Also, for those of you who are wondering who is Kaia's face claim; it is the Wubble version of Allisha Gray back before she changes her hair with the pair of goggles are being converted into her pair of permanent glasses where she wore them for a very long time in her life starting from her time when she started her freshman year in the University of Hawaii at Manoa which is her own idea as she did wanted to wear a pair of glasses which Allisha Gray started wearing it from the pandemic year.

For the writing of their headcanons, it is inserted below and I will be cross posting to my personal blog.

-Kaia does truly loves giving Logan a manicure and pedicure whenever they are at home in her (Or rather: their) apartment in the island of Oahu, Hawaii.

-Kaia has a collection of nail polish, books: magazines; music CDs, *Funko Pop Figures, My Scene and Barbie Dolls plus DVDs of her favorite movies she enjoys watching them either from her home or from her nail salon since he (Logan) suggested **she gets a TV for her nail salon just in case if people wanted to watch a movie at her nail salon.

~Kaia and Logan loves acai bowl whenever they are in Hawaii and they would always go for the acai bowl from the Sunshine Shack restaurant but they also loved and enjoyed the acai bowls from Haleiwa Bowls whenever they both travelled up north to the area of Haleiwa in addition to the Nalu Cafe Acai bowl where they can simply walk across from her nail salon to the Nalu Cafe where they would always acai bowl for either breakfast or brunch if they both arrived late to the nail salon by an urgent client with an emergency appointment.

~When she first met Coco who is Logan's dog; he would always let her keep Kaia accompany as he gets concerned about how Kaia would cope with the waves of loneliness she had to truly experienced it in her very own life while having to truly live in the island of Hawaii.

~Logan also helps her with the assisting job on the meal runs followed by collecting any of the parcels she needs to collect them on extra nail equipments; nail polishes to be stocked up and also extra items to be added into a collection.

-Kaia does truthfully hated sharks but told him the reef sharks she had experienced it before whenever she either goes cage diving with sharks in Haleiwa (A very seldom activity she normally does in Haleiwa) or scuba diving out in the waters of the Pacific Ocean surrounding the islands of Hawaii didn't give her much of a scare in the comparison of the great white sharks and the more common tiger sharks which although she seen them a few time whenever she gets a full on seldom day off from doing her own business by having to go scuba diving whenever she has the proper time to do it.

-Speaking of scuba diving, one of Kaia's favorite activity is scuba diving apart from surfing; swimming plus deep sea fishing with her dad whenever he gets the time apart from gardening which she usually enjoys it with her dad; reading; watching her favorite comfort movies, doing art on sketching; coloring in the adult coloring books and doing acrylic paintings of any different art subjects she wanted to do it whenever she gets the time in addition to spending her time at a cafe and journaling on her daily life whenever she can along the way on a day when she gets the time to be away from her nail salon.

-One of her least favorite part is the financial part where she had to truly hire a proper and an equally true financial team where they can help her with the financial team as it does truly makes her feeling so overwhelmed that she felt as if she is learning the hardest part of the business side.

~Speaking of teams; she also too hired a team of nail artists whom she met them during her time in beauty school or perhaps they asked her if they are interested in checking their portfolios of their nail arts in addition to helping her out with the nail salon by adding more nail artists whom nowadays people normally would either discovered them online or perhaps from another nail salon where they would spoke to them about how the nail salons in Hawaii might need a booster from the clients too in order to do both on their part by having to contribute by giving them their support in addition to letting people know where to go to the best indie nail salons whenever anyone or anybody needs to get their manicure and pedicure treatment.

Dare I give in to my brainrot and give you Siegfried for the character ask?

Is that cheating?

If it is, please wax poetic about what you think of Kijyo Koyo.

No, I don't consider this cheating, lol

Favorite thing about them:

He's a very dependable man, willing to help even when there's no reward in it for him. While he does have his faults (he can't help everyone/not able to those who need it, he's oblivious as to how much others really care about him, etc.), these aren't faults that I have a problem with. He's also very knowledgeable on tactics for the battlefield and he knows what kinds of food would be easy to bring with.

And then, of course, how adorably dorky he gets when he's in his Summer costume. Like, he genuinely thinks that glasses increases intelligence! It doesn't work like that as someone who has to wear glasses, but he's so earnest about it that I forgive him. It also helps that he does look good in them, too.

Least favorite thing about them:

WHEN WILL HE HAVE A MY ROOM LINE FOR HIS WIFE?!

The small rewrite from Kriemhild's profile saying that Hagen helped Siegfried in his planned death/assisted suicide, just so Kriemhild and Brunhild wouldn't go to war. On one hand, we all know that Siegfried will give up his life without a second thought for the greater good (like saving Sieg's life in Apocrypha, for example), but on the other hand, why is he iffy around people being behind his back and around bodies of water? I'm no psychologist or anything of the sort, but it just ticks me off.

Favorite line:

His Bond 5 line. ಥ⁠_⁠ಥ

OTP:

For het ships, Siegfried x Jalter, and for slash ships, either Siegfried x Karna or Georgios (and either version of Guda/Ritsuka).

BroTP:

Siegfried and Sieg.

NoTP:

Okay, so despite the fact that I've sort of vague posted it before on my grievances concerning how Siegfried's and Kriemhild's relationship is handled, it's not my NoTP! (I'm just... heavily disappointed.)

I only have like, two that I consider my NoTP's, those being Siegfried x Sieg (even if the fandom didn't consider them father and son, it still feels wrong) and Siegfried x Summer/Saber Hokusai (Summer Hokusai didn't really... come across as "this character is 18" to me with how she acts, so the scene in Summer 4 where Guda and co. are entering Summer Melt's casino rubbed me the wrong way).

Random Headcanon:

This is inspired from a post that I one time saw in regards to his random "in the sky" appearance during the second Halloween event (can't remember if it was on here or somewhere else), but he makes a good DM.

Unpopular Opinion:

I'm probably the most controversial FGO Tumblr user for saying this, but Siegfried's and Kriemhild's relationship is really boring, since on Kriemhild's end, it's just her being a sort of discount version of her VA's current most popular role, and not anything original to the relationship (I could actually delve into why this pisses me off so much on a later post, I just gotta get myself mad enough to really do it).

Song I associate with them:

... I Need A Hero, specifically the Shrek 2 version (I will not apologize).

Favorite picture of them:

For official art, it'll be the Prince of Slayer CE (you have no idea how much time it took to choose just one piece of official artwork, either for Apocrypha or FGO).

For fanart/fan made art, instead of listing one (let's be honest I wouldn't be able to, lol), I'll list my favorite Siegfried fan artist from pixiv (mine), although sadly they've seem to moved on from Fate, since the last piece of art they've did was on March 1st, 2022. :(
