01. count your days

it was a typical evening, and you were live on twitch, your dorm room dimly lit with colorful led lights that cast a vibrant glow on your setup. the chat was buzzing with activity as fans poured in, excited for another stream. leaning forward and adjusting your headset, you greet them with a smile

"hey, everyone! welcome back! how's it going?" you asked, eyes scanning the chat as messages flew by

as the stream continued, you immersed yourself in conversation with viewers, your laughter and commentary filling the room. the chat was lively, with fans making jokes and sharing their daily happenings. one comment, however, caught your attention

"business majors when they have a coloring page due at 11:59," you read aloud, giggling. "hey, us business majors have a lot of work to do, alright! like..." you hummed thoughtfully, time passing before eventually changing topics. "anyways, let's play…! today we're playing dress to impress and i'm definitely going to win because i have all the style and finesse etcetera etcetera."

your avatar appeared on the screen, and the theme for the round was announced: "secretary."

you began assembling your outfit, carefully selecting items that fit the theme. as the round progressed, you became more and more invested in your creation, making sure every detail was perfect to the last second. when the time came for the judging, you eagerly awaited the results. "i really don't know what i'm all anxious for. clearly the number one spot is mine…" your words died down as the podium was displayed

"what… what is this…" you whispered, your mic barely able to pick up the words

"someone ban these kids. what is this?! have you never walked into an office!? a quick google search, hello?" you exclaimed, throwing your hands up in disbelief

meanwhile, in another corner of the campus, billy was also live on twitch. his stream was a whirlwind of energy, with billy jumping between gameplay and talking his audiences' ears off. tonight, he had coincidentally chosen to play "dress to impress" as well.

billy's chat was equally lively, filled with fans who adored his quirky personality and unexpected antics. as he navigated through the game, he offered his usual playful commentary.

"see, chat, all you have to do to win is not follow the theme," billy said, chuckling as he assembled a completely wrong outfit for the "secretary" theme.

his avatar strutted down the virtual runway, and as expected, it was a hit with the players, despite having nothing to do with the theme. billy laughed and spun around in his chair before taking a quick screenshot of his game, posting it to twitter

his attention turned back to his chat, where a comment caught his eye

"PLEASE MEISTERYN IS IN THIS SERVER AND SHES LIVID BRO 😭😭"

billy's eyes widened in surprise, as it was his only means of expression. "wait, meisteryn is in this server?" he asked, glancing around the game lobby as if he might spot your avatar among the crowd. "no way! that's wild! you know, she's pretty cool! you guys should check out her streams sometime!"

"i bet if billy wasn't streaming right now, he'd be watching her stream" "billy would be the first one in there" "bro def has notifs on"

reading over these comments, billy stammered, "hey! that is not true!"

[the1975attheirverybest]

Also if your uni has a program to talk to older students? Try it out. I know that seems silly but older students tend to adopt first years or have decent advice because they've been you. I've been you. And now I actively elected to miss a seminar this morning cause I knew the topic and couldn't be arsed. Which isn't good but like, I'm not suffering for it.

Remember holding yourself accountable for study doesn't mean self flagillating if you don't get it right. Don't beat yourself up. We all fuck up sometimes. One lf my buddies this year has 62% attendance already. Its only week 6. And he's doing fine. My gf who is doing her literal dissertation just picks and chooses her lectures and only goes to some just for the attendance number. Is this good? Nah probbaly not. But it works. She's doing a masters next year. I have 82% attendance, behind on 4 weeks of readings and have an essay due Tuesday I've not even started (I'm doing it tonight and tommoriw) my friend on the same course also hasn't started, it's ok to be behind or to struggle. As long as your trying, as long as you try no one can ask anymore of you.

Maybe talk to your tutor? About your struggle and how it's academically affecting you? Because I know most unis give you an academic advisor/tutor in first year. And they are there to help you get into it. And to keep you going.

Hallas suggestion of an accountability buddy is a great idea as well, I had one last year, I technically have one rn (I study with gf so she can chastise me and keep an eye on my work) and study with my friends which yes sure we end up chatting but it makes it much less exhausting than doing it alone. Maybe curate a playlist (helps me) or try setting out a specific space to study. Local pubs normally let students study there or cofee shops, which I do a lot during exam periods. Maybe try organising a routine? I follow a daily basic schedule (with free spots in so I don't burnout) which structures Mt day and helps me keep up with self motivating. I also find watching those weird study tube videos helps me while I study. Study with me videos make me feel like I should be studying.

Your doing great love, I promise. Hell halla can tell you the first time I missed a lecture ever (this year) I had a full blown freak out in her dms. And yeah sure it's not ideal but it's not the end of the world. Just take a few breaths, close your eyes, count to 10, and try and let it go a little. Because its a little thing, and it feels bigger than it is because it's new and you've got a lot of big feelings right now that are making everything seem terrifying. But it's gonna be ok, your doing so so amazing even talking about it and I'm proud of you. We all have hiccups and as someone with depression myself I know how it feels, and your doing well to acknowledge it and try.

I'm proud of you mate

Chapter 1 Part 3

Tim got out of the exams first, and wondered if he should wait for Dave or go home, but Dave came a few minutes after and told Tim to come with him and that they are going for ice-cream and a walk. "Don't you have practice in two hours?" "Yes, but until then we are going on a date, and after practice we can just stay chill and cuddle, since tomorrow we are free." "Are you really going to stay in on a Friday night after the exams are over?" Tim asked suspiciously "Of course I will, I'm staying with you after all" Tim smiled at his boyfriend and took his hand. Dave took Tim to his favorite ice-cream place and knew exactly what to command, which Tim didn't really expect, and then they went on a walk and Dave left Tim in front of their apartment door. "This was beautiful! Thank you!" "You accepted, so I have to thank you, I will go to practice now, then will got to the gym, I want to pump these pecs for tonight, I'm pretty sure you founded them quite comfortable last night *Dave winks and boces his pesc*" "Yeah, I will wate for you then" Tim leaned forward to kiss his boyfriend. They kissed passionately in front of the apartments door. "Shoot, should I shower before I come back, do you like that smell, oh, I don't know, I ruined the moment!" Tim started laughing. "Yes, I like that smell, and you didn't ruin anything, bye now" Tim entered the apartment, Dave stood there red as an tomato, then took his bag and ran to practice. Dave arrived home 4 hours later, with such a strong smell of sweat that it could be felt in the hole building, his muscles bursting, every vine pulsing on him. When he opened the door he found Tim in the kitchen, he was cooking Daves favorite food. "Hello Dave, how was practice?" Tim asked hearing the door. "Well, your about to find out. What smeels so good?" "Besides you? i made your favourige, i knew you would be hungry after training" Dave entered the kitchen, Tim looked at him in awe. Dave was swollen, his muscles bigger then Tim has ever seen him. "I see you've prepared me a snack for tonight too" Tim joked *cofe* "Uhhm... Take a sit!" Tim served Dave with the food, putting it on the table, but Dave got closer and pined Tim to the wall, raising his hand so Tim could smell his armpit. He looked in Tims eyes and said "I love you!" then kissed Tim with passion. "I love you too!" The two boys sat down at the table to eat, and after they finished Dave stretched and burped loudly "Bleah! I am sorry" his whole body looking like it's growing, he flexed his biceps while stretching and his shirt rippled up reveling his belly with his eight pack "I am full" he hitted his tummy slowly and burped again "Bleah!" the button of his pants opened, jumping on the table. "Oh shit! I am so sorry, I just, these are my tight jeans, I want expecting to.. " "Hey, it's ok, your pretty insecure for a handsome jock, I actually liked it" Tim stood up from the table and got closer to kiss Dave. After they ate the two lovers got on the couch, Dave taking off his shirt and Tim staying there in an oversized T-shit that he uses as pajamas at times. They layed on the couch and started a movie, Dave holding Tim in his strong arms.

Summary : Park Solomon freaks out over an audition for his first big acting role

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

"Well I'm screwed" Lomon thought as he blankly stared at the papers in his hands as he rereads the script for the nth time tonight. He is overthinking.

You see the thing is, this audition isn't just ANY audition. Sure he's been to multiple auditions, but this was different.

He wasn't just going to be one of those movie or drama extras anymore, he'll finally have the chance to land a big role and become an actual lead actor for once, and the fact that it's being produced by one of the most well-known names in the industry wasn't helping his train of thoughts, he's VERY nervous.

His eyes skimmed over the words on the paper once more, ignoring the stabbing pain in his head from reading the same set of lines over and over again for the past couple hours.

There wasn't really supposed to be a problem — the script was FANTASTIC! — but there was a scene from the script that he just can't get right.

He audibly sighed in frustration — this scene was one of the important ones — and threw the script somewhere.

"Looks like someone's in a bad mood" Y/N, his roommate/childhood best friend, walked into the living room with a cup of coffee in hand as she bent to pick up the papers he threw.

"A penny for your thoughts?" He turned his head towards her direction and watched her sit beside him "Remember that audition that I told you about? That's what's stressing me out" She took a sip of coffee and set her mug on the coffee table in front of them before taking a quick glance at the papers in her hand. A look of realization flashes across her face before she handed Lomon the set of papers.

"Ooooohhhhhh, that audition you told me about last week?" He nodded "Well what's the problem? You've been to multiple auditions before, how does this one make any difference?" She shrugged and he sighed once again.

"It's not just ANY audition. This is a BIG one, I can finally have a chance to be a lead actor for once" Her eyes widened as he spoke "Really!? That's great!! I'm so proud of you Lomon" She beamed at him "But what about it? I mean you're probably nervous, which is normal, but you honestly seem like you're gonna die any moment now"

"It’s tomorrow, and there's this one scene that I'm having a hard time doing" he points over that part in the script for emphasis. "Ooooh let me see" She made grabby hands, 'cute' he thought, and he handed her the script.

"What’s your problem with it, exactly?" Y/N asks. The scene involved the 'first kiss' shared between the main characters. It should've been easy, right? Lomon thought but a loud voice in his head said NO.

"There are so many ways to do it and I'm so confused right now. Should I lean in slow? should I lean in fast? or should I—" Lomon cut himself off as he covered his face with his hands.

He peeked through his hands to see his friend's reaction just to see her innocently drinking her coffee, obviously unbothered. She raised a brow at him as if to say 'I know that's not your only reason' — Dammit, she knows him too well.

And so he gave in "Fine I'll admit it. It's been a while since I've kissed someone and the fact that this is the first audition I'm doing that has a kissing scene is not helping me. I'm afraid that I'll mess up tomorrow" He banged his head on the cofee table and groaned.

Y/N sighed and set her now empty cup of coffee aside before grabbing Lomon by the hair, gently raising his head from the table.

She took notice of the paper clip mark imprinted on his forehead from when he banged his head on the table full of papers and she internally laughed at him, she decided to ignore that for now.

"Lomon calm down, you're thinking about this too much" She spoke "And besides...who knows? maybe they won't even make you do this scene because there's no way you can do this without a partner" She tried to reassure him. He sat up straight and she let go of his hair. "Would they even ask you to do that scene without a partner?"

He shrugs. "They said they might bring in a couple of people at a time, to test chemistry" she hummed and it was quiet for a while when she decided to break the silence.

"Wanna rehearse your lines with me?" She asked, she figured that this would get his mind off his 'problem' for a while.

It wasn't anything new. They've done this a couple of times in the past whenever Lomon has a new audition or a new role to play. He was thankful of her.

They sat in front of each other as Y/N held the script in her hands to serve as a guide. She kept her head low, quietly reading the lines, as he stared. Her presence alone had him feeling mesmerized.

As she read the script, she suddenly felt a burning gaze on her. She lifted her head to look at him and found him staring at her with a foreign look that had her confused. "Sooooo, should we start?" she snapped him out of his daze and all he could do was nod. And so just like that, they started practicing the script.

Time passed and they (most especially Lomon) were doing quite well. He cleared his throat and recalled the next scene. It's set in an amusement park after he (the main character) and his classmate-slash-love interest decided to skip class after an uneventful morning in school.

After a while, they finally reach the last lines of the scene before the kiss.

"Have you ever done this before?" He spoke. The scene takes place in a ferris wheel as they looked at the marvelous view in front of them.

Y/N fills in for the other character, 'the love interest'. She shook her head and spoke "I’ve never done this with someone special"

They suddenly fall silent. Y/N looked at him with an expression that says 'what now?' until he finally broke the silence. "This is the scene that I was struggling with" He cleared his throat "It's the first kiss and I can't decide whether I should do a fierce and passionate kiss or if it's supposed to have this intense buildup that leads to a chaste and meaningful one" He rubbed his temple in frustration.

They fall silent once again until Y/N suddenly sat in a closer distance to him. She cleared her throat and a light tint of redness dusted across her cheeks. "I mean, we can try to do this scene if you want" She quietly said but it was loud enough for him to hear it as she avoided eye contact with him.

Lomon stared at her in shock and it was his turn to blush now. 'Does she mean what I think she means??' he thought. Y/N finally looked at him with wide eyes. "Or not! I-it was just a suggestion, we don't have to do it!" she quickly defended and was about to stand up when she felt his fingers wrap around her wrist.

"R-really? Do you mean it?" She looked at him with flushed cheeks and nodded "I mean, if you want to" she mumbled. "Let's do it" Her eyes widened at the three words that left his mouth as if she was expecting him to refuse her unexpected offer.

Y/N's face nearly panics again but then her face suddenly smooths over. "Okay! Ummm great! Do you wanna take it from the top?" She spoke loudly, trying to act cool and composed even though she was internally screaming at herself about stuff. What did she just get herself into?

He nodded at her previous question and they adjust their positions as if they were in the ferris wheel. They repeated the lines again until — "Have you ever done this before?"

Lomon took his time to look at her face and got lost in a trance once again. For some reason, she looks even more beautiful each time he looks at her. "I’ve never done this with someone special" she responded and both of them suddenly became aware of what's about to happen next.

He took in every inch of her face — from the way her hair looked, it was a bit messy and yet it still managed to look good on her...

'Relax, you've got this. He's your best friend. Besides, this is just acting — right?' Y/N thought as she tried to calm her nerves down, unaware of the fact that the boy in front of her was in a similar state.

And yet, as he leans forward, she sees something flicker in his eyes. They were a breath away from each other as Lomon's eyes flickered between her eyes and her lips. There was a foreign feeling in her chest as they sat so close to one another that it has ger wondering 'does he feel the same thing that I'm feeling right now?'

This was her idea, anyway, so she calms her mind and tried to remind herself that this is just acting and nothing else.

Lomon lifts his hands to cup her delicate face, searching for any hint of hesitation before letting their lips touch.

Her eyes went wide, despite the fact that she expected it, and yet she remembered the fact that this was just 'acting' so she closed her eyes. She placed a hand on his cheek, lightly tracing his cheekbone with her thumb as he deepened the kiss. He doesn’t pull away at once, he lets the tension linger.

He noticed that his heart rate has sped up. They were too immersed in the kiss, both of them completely forgetting the fact that this was supposed to be just acting. All they could think about was each other as their lips moved in sync.

After a while, they noticed the lack of breath and Y/N took it upon herself to pull away from each other's lips.

"Was that okay?"

"Did that feel alright?" — they both spoke at the same time and they dissolve into nervous giggles.

They fell quiet once again for the nth time today and they stare into each other's eyes as Lomon gently traced the side of her face with his fingers.

"Can I kiss you again?" Lomon felt a sudden rush of confidence as he asked. All she could do was nod and he took that as a sign to press his lips against hers once again.

It starts slow, with him purposefully catching her mouth a little clumsily as he changes the angle to fit their lips better. She pulled him closer by the collar of his shirt as he wrapped his arms around her waist.

She is an incredibly good kisser, and Lomon loses himself in it. With Y/N and Lomon caught up in each other's embrace , everything just suddenly felt right.

They pulled away and stared at each other again with smiles plastered across their faces. Both of them knew that what just happened wasn't 'acting'. There were no words exchanged between the two and yet there was this mutual love radiating off of each other.

Both of them felt happy. They were aware of the fact that they'll have to talk about what just happened but for now, they'll just relish in each other's presence.

And so the two of them held each other, the script long forgotten as it sat on the coffee table. He'll just have to worry about the audition tomorrow.

TOKYO REVENGERS CHARACTERS

...CELEBRATING THEIR S/O BDAY <3

RAN HAITANI

since the morning it seems like an ordinary day, your boyfriend came to you in the morning to take you to school and as usual he went to his "work".

so you found yourself in the afternoon alone in your room, grabbed some snacks and started watching your favorite movie.

Despite the sense of sadness, you wiped your tears and ignored it, until your phone pattern lit up. It was a notification, and it was from Ran.

"Get ready and get out ". Thinking it was something serious you settled down slightly and rushed out of the house, where you found your boyfriend to wait for you.

He was wearing a black smoking, and his hair pulled back into a bun, a light thread of eyeliner and a such a reassuring expression.

"hey y/n...were you crying?" he asked.

"uhm..no...not at all. But why are you so elegant"

"oh love, it's your birthday, how could I not be? "

Your eyes lit up, and your heart started beating faster.

"c'mon let's go. I'll take you out to dinner in a special place. ” You were still freezed, he grabbed your wrist and led you to the restaurant where he had booked.

"You know, I've been organizing this for quite a while, I hope you like it." he said looking away, blushing slightly.

The place was perfect, there were few people and the soft light made the atmosphere even more romantic. You were still very excited, but there was no embarrassment, you thanked him and enjoyed the evening.

"Don't think it's over here" he told you when you two left the restaurant.

"uhm do u trust me?"

You nodded, and he tied a blindfold around your eyes. He pulled you close to him and guided you to a special place

when he took off your blindfold, the view was breathtaking

A huge expanse of stars, where it seemed almost possible to touch them. The lights of the city and the sounds of the animals made everything even more magical.

Before you could I would say anything, he silenced you with a kiss, and in the meantime he put a clip in your hair.

"I took this a while ago, it reminded me of you and I was sure it would look great on you."

And in that magical atmosphere you sat hugged to contemplate the beautiful panorama <3

"happy birthday love" were the last words you heard before falling asleep in his arms.

MITSUYA TAKASHI

So your boyfriend forgot your birthday too? The only thing he left you was the usual note that said "today will be a long day for me, see you tonight" and that message was so cold.

It was 3pm when you heard your doorbell ring. You opened it and the only thing you found was a small box outside the door. You opened it, and there was another note in it. "Smell this letter, and you will understand where to go" despite the amazement you did.

It had an intense jasmine scent, the same that you and Mitsuya smelled every time when he walked you home. So you headed down that road.

There you met Draken, who after greeting you and wishing you a birthday, gave you a small package.

You opened it and you found a drawing of a brioches and a cofee. Like what mitsuya brought you every morning. So you headed to your fav bar, where you found the owner who handed you a cupcake and told you that someone was waiting for you outside.

You went out and found Chifuyu and Takemichi waiting for you.

"I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION" you yelled, and just when you looked up, you found Mitsuya that was staring at you and smiling softly.

"the solution is "happy birthday my love" " you said.

"oh so you quickly found the solution" he replied before giving you a kiss on you nose.

"I'm proud of you darling, I hope you enjoyed this little game, now come with me and I'll take you to the final prize"

He took you by the hand, and led you to the roof of an abandoned building. From there you could see a beautiful sunset and there was a large tarp filled with snacks and drinks.

After you sat down, he pulled out a gift.

"here, this is for you, I did it so it won't be perfect. I really hope you like them"

They were beautiful white gloves, exactly your size.

"oh, they're so beautiful. Thank you so much Takashi" u said smiling at him.

"Everything for you" he told you before approaching you. So you stayed close to watch the beautiful sunset

CHIFUYU MATSUNO

It was such a busy day that you didn't even have a second to dedicate to yourself, even though it was your birthday.

Also, your boyfriend hadn't written or called you, maybe he just forgot about it you tought. As soon as you got home, you were very tired, but a delicious smell of pizza invaded your nostrils. You followed the perfume and in the kitchen you found Chifuyu that was cooking

He had a funny pink apron, and he was intending to get the pizza out of the oven.

"Y/N- uhm I didn't hear you" he yelled as soon as you saw. You started laughing, it was so funny seeing him with a face full of flour and ruffled hair

"It's a surprise. You g-go to rest, I'm almost done".

So you went for a quick shower and then changed. When you went out they were off, not all the lights no noise. Although you were a little scared, you headed for the room and as soon as you entered, the big light came on and a large table set up before you.

Shortly thereafter Chifuyu appeared and made his way towards you. He took you by the hand saying:

"here at your table, I hope you like it" and as a gentelman, he married the chair for you to sit on.

" It took me a while, but I'm pretty sure all your favorite foods are there," he said, stammering slightly and now his face was very red.

"It's all so good !! How long did it take you?"

"let's forget the time- the important thing is that you like it"

And you two continued to eat, it was all very good and all your favorite dishes were on that table<3

As soon as you finished, he ran to get a small box. "Well, since today is your birthday I got this for you. Close your eyes please."

You did what he said and felt warm hands moving your hair. To put you a necklace.

As soon as you opened your eyes you saw yourself in a mirror, it was such a beautiful necklace

"chifuyu, it's so pretty, thank you so much"

"Y/N, I'M SO HAPPY YOU LIKE" and he hugged you without thinking.

It seemed that all the exhaustion had been replaced by pure happiness.

" uh and it's not over yet, " he added. Soon after you were out, he let you get on his bike without telling you where you were going.

Until he stopped in front of the cinema, you entered and the hall was completely empty. It was literally just the two of you watching the movie

"Chifuyu, what are we going to see?"

"oh, you'll find out love". And your film started

It was your favorite movie, but how was it possible? It hadn't gone out to the cinema.

"WAIT Chifuyu how did you do it ?? How is it possible"

"shh, happy birthday" and saying this, he put his head on your shoulder and you watched that movie laughing and commenting happy <3

[dfsgasad]

Based on this post i made this morning, here have 694 words of pure fluff

(You can also read it in Ao3)

The room is darker than it's probably healthy, with the moon low in the sky and Hitoshi's phone with the brightness at its lowest shining on his face, but it's appropriate for the hour.

They turned the light off hours ago, but Izuku keeps writing in his notebook, furiously whispering while analyzing a new fight of this week. The only sounds besides the sliding of the pencil over paper are Hitoshi's fingers tapping on the screen. 

The lump in the bed moves, and a frowning blond head pops up from the blankets.

"Deku, 'Toshi? The hell are you doing still awake?" It was cute, not that Hitoshi would ever say it out loud, how Katsuki's voice went soft right after waking up. Izuku starts to explain his analysis, sleep making his mumbles more jumbled than usual, and Hitoshi just shrugs.

"I'm done anyways, Kacchan" he doesn't even have his eyes open anymore, Katsuki grunts, pushing him to the bed. Izuku offers no resistance, plopping down and wrapping himself in blankets until he resembles a lumpy mockery of class 1-A's homeroom teacher, moving so his back is against the wall.

"And you?" The question takes Hitoshi by surprise but he just shrugs again, is not like the others are strangers to his weird sleep patterns, he lives complaining about his insomnia 

"Not sleepy" Katsuki scowls, still managing to look softer than usual, and takes a look at the clock by the bed. 1:46 , he should at least lay down, or he'll be too tired in class to actually pay attention. His boyfriend seems to read his mind.

"Well, I am, and I'm not letting you stay here, come to bed" it feels almost scripted, a play they repeat every night.

"I won't fall asleep soon" he warns, because it's true.

"Don't care, stay with your phone and let me cuddle you" if it was any other time, Katsuki would probably feel too embarrassed to say that, but now, with the stars shining through the gaps between the curtains, he lets his walls fall down, and Hitoshi can't do anything but agree.

It's almost routine now to lay down beside Izuku, phone in hand, and wait for Katsuki to climb at his back. It's comforting, when Katsuki slips his hand around his waist and under his shirt, drawing small circles over his stomach.

He lets himself relax against Katsuki's chest, his boyfriend is like a furnace, incredibly warm all around him, and has an instinct to grab whatever is in front of him and not let go.

(Izuku doesn't really like it, he knows, can't really sleep if it's too hot or if someone's holding him, so they used to sleep back to back, Katsuki hugging a pillow, Izuku bundled in blankets. He has pictures, they are adorable) 

He loses some time scrolling through memes and cat pictures, muffling laughs with his hand and staying still every time one of his boyfriends move too much. The minutes pass slowly, and he's surprised when a yawn makes his eyes close.

He looks at the time again, 3:12, he might even get a few hours of sleep tonight. He shifts, and a tug from his shirt makes him pause. At some point Izuku managed to get one of his arms free, and now his hand is holding the hem of his shirt tightly. He smiles and tries to disentangle it, taking care not to move Izuku too much.

He's trying to sit up when the arm around his waist tightens, almost making him fall

"Y'r going to sleep?" Katsuki doesn't even have his eyes open, and his mouth barely moves to speak, slurring the sounds

"Yeah" he whispers, stretching his arm to leave his phone on the bedside table. The arm twitches again, and this time Hitoshi bends down, watching red eyes flutter open for an instant and brushing their lips softly for a few seconds, before falling down again, back against Katsuki's solid chest, soft breaths against his hair.

He takes Izuku's hand again, intertwining their fingers. Izuku gives a content sound, and Hitoshi thinks he hears Katsuki whispering goodnight, but he's already half asleep.

[Mochizuki is trying to make her way trough the crowds of salarymen that are exiting the train and making their way home. Meanwhile, Nikita is leaning on a wall, texting her friend to move her ass faster.]

Nikita: Took you a while, huh?

Mochizuki: Oh shut it! You have no idea what's in there! I-I wonder how I didn't suffocate with so many people inside!

Nikita: Fufu, glad you didn't!

[Mochizuki throws her friend a cold glare.]

Nikita: A-anyways...Let's get going!

[ Nikita starts skating ahead of her friend and Mochizuki powers on her electric scooter, yelling at the older girl to stop moving so fast and to wait for her. After searching around for a place, they found a tiny cafè with no customers.]

Nikita(pointing at her skates): Think I can go in like this?

Mochizuki: I... I don't know but if we get kicked out because of you, you're the one paying next time.

Nikita: Deal.

[They open the door and a tiny bell rings.]

Mochizuki: Good evening! Can I have a...uhh??

[At the counter is a lady that doesn't even try to hide her disgust when seeing the two. She lazily puts her phone down and clicks her tongue.]

Lady(yelling at someone in the back): COME GET THESE GIRLS!! LET ME TAKE A BREAK ALREADY!

[A waitress comes running with a worried look on her face to see what's going on.]

Lady: What are you staying there for?? Go!

[The waitress just sighs and goes to greet the two girls that were left speechless by the lady's behavior.]

Waitress(whispering): Please excuse us...

Nikita: Huh, that's a warm welcome.

Waitress(ashamed): ...

Mochizuki: She meant to say that it's no big deal! Right?

Nikita: Yeah...Right.

Waitress: What can I help you with?

Mochizuki: Oh, I would like some cream puffs and she would like some chocolate chip cookies. Thank you.

Nikita: And a cup of cofee.

Mochizuki(whispering to Nikita): What?!? At this hour of the day??

Nikita: ...

Waitress: Please take a seat. I will be back with your order in a few moments.

[ They both take a seat at a table near the window.]

Nikita(putting a menu in front of her mouth and whispering): How old do you think she is?

Mochizuki: How do you expect me to guess?? Her hair is freacking gray but she looks like she's in her early twenties. Have you ever seen someone that looks both old and young?

Nikita: Yeah! My boss!

Mochizuki(shivers): Crap! Don't mention her!

Nikita:Fufufu~ Oh she's coming!

[The waitress puts the plates down on the table.]

Mochizuki and Nikita: Thank you! :D

Waitress: Enjoy your meal...

[Both of them munch on their sweets but stop to listen to the conversation between the lady and the waitress.]

Lady: I'm headin' out! Take care of the place for me!

Waitress: But...that's not my job...

Lady: I'm busy tonight and I'm not canceling my plans to help you out!

[She slams the door and the bell rings.]

Waitress:*sighs*

Mochizuki: Niki?

Nikita: Yeah?

Mochizuki: I'm gonna help her.

Nikita: It's none of our business, Mochizuki.

Mochizuki(shouting): MISS!! WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

Waitress(woken up from a dream): M-me?

My name is Ranpo...

Mochizuki(coming closer):Ranpo-san, lemme help you with that!

Ranpo: Oh no! Please, you don't have to! You are the customers and I....and I...

Nikita(finnaly rising from her chair): Geez, quit the rambling... (to Mochizuki)I'm gonna mop the tiles while you clean the tables, k?

Mochizuki(saluting): Yes ma'am!

Ranpo: ･ﾟ･(｡>▪︎<｡)･ﾟ･

.

.

.

[The three girls start cleaning the cafè and finish up in no time. Ranpo closes down the place and they decide to walk toghether until their ways part.]

Ranpo: You were so kind to help me out there....I am very grateful...

Mochizuki: Hey, don't worry! It's only natural.(staring at Nikita): Right...Niki?

Nikita:Yup! :3.

Ranpo: If only there were more people like you ...

Nikita: Oh, man! That would be cool!

Mochizuki(hitting Nikita in the arm): Shut it!

All three of them:*giggle*

Mochizuki: Hey, Ranpo-san, maybe we can meet again sometimes?

Ranpo(with a tiny smile on her face): I would love to...

♡

☆

♡

[They reach a crossroad so the girls are forced to say goodbye to each other.]

Mochizuki: Ranpo-san, before you go, can I ask you something?

Ranpo: Sure thing.

Mochizuki: Promise you won't get mad?

Ranpo: Pinky promise.

Mochizuki: How old are you?

Ranpo: I'm 20.

Mochizuki(turning to Nikita): HAHA I told youuu!! Give me the money !

Nikita: Fufufu! Only if you catch me!

[Nikita starts skating away and Mochizuki is chasing her, both of them saying goodbye to Ranpo while she waves the two of them from afar.]

[ After chasing each other for a while, they end up in some weird alleyways, believing that the station is right behind the corner. In the distance they notice a group of men doing some shady business, so they turn in the opposite direction.]

Shady guy 1: HEY! YOU TWO!!

Nikita(whispering): Crap!(yelling): We were just leaving!

[The second guy takes out a knife from his pocket and points it to the two girls.]

Shady guy 2: Hehe, you think we're gonna let you leave so easily?

???:Well, I think you will~.

[The gang turns around only to see a misterious woman standing and the end of the alleyway. She carries a oil-paper umbrella, despite it being useless at night. With silent steps, she comes closer to them.]

Shady guy 3(taking a box cutter out): Stay there or you'll get it!

???:Hmmm...come to think of it...Our battle would not be so fair if you're fighting with those. Are you sure you want to do this?

Shady guy 1: BWAHAHA! Show us what you got!

[The three men watch the woman in terror as she pulls away the umbrella's handle, revealing a large sword.]

???: Are you still that brave~?

Meet Luke Alvez, the Strategist

Just two examples.

1- 12x8, Scarecrow. 

He starest at her from the beginning. He also understands that she won’t touch him passing him the folder.

Then, he takes the remote control.  And he looks again at her.

He was right, because she places his fold on the table. And the way he hold the remote control... And his gaze when he is about to give back her remote control. The intensity.  And... Congratulations, Luke. Target achieved.

Bonus: someone noticed.

2- 15x10. In this episode we have three moments. We can consider them as part of a big strategy, a larger scheme. 

Phase one: let her understand that he knows her, her taste, he can make her happy. Then, he gives all the girls cofees bought in one of Penelope’ favorite place.

And...

Goal achieved. Maybe she doesn’t seem enthusiastic but she is still impressed and intrigued.  Look at the Strategist rubbing his hands together.  He knows that his plan is working.  A satisfied bastard.

-

Phase two. Stay as close as possible to her, let her know he can be funny, he can make her laugh (not only at him). Dance with her and show his charm that he never used before. But then, before... change of plan.

He is about to drink and celebrate but the she arrives, remembering that she is the belle of the ball. And he fucking knows that.  She stands right close to him and then he can’t miss this opportunity.

He offers her his drink and, while he is at it, he also touches her shoulder.  Double touch.

And not just for a second. Look at her smile. Yes, Luke knows this is the perfect night. She is the queen, he wants to be her king. Her knight.  Yes, tonight she will give him a chance. Just tonight, though.

Penelope is like “if this is a dream, let me sleep a little longer”. Luke is like “just play it cool”.  And here “Yes, she is my lady”.  Mentally counting down. And in the last pic he is “Don’t laugh, don’t laugh”...  He pratically almost never takes his eyes off her.

-

And then... dance time! He points directly at her, so she can understand that she is his queen.  Look at her expression. She believes it, once. She really does.

She is happy so his plan is working. Even Matt helps him.

 She looks for him, she wants to be near him.

He is just so fucking happy.  Tonight she is his lady and nobody disagrees.

But, here we are. The Big Strategy.  His hand is on her body, but she is holding Tara.  Then, with nonchalance, he pulls her pulls her away from the group and closer to him.  It’s so fucking clear that here he cares nothing about the others.

Goal achieved.

But it’s almost time.

-

Phase 3. Time for truth. He takes her aside, for ask her a real date. 

She can’t understand what’s going on. But she is intrugued, again. Look at the Strategist and his hands. He can’t believe he is really abou to do it.

But he shows her how kind he could be. Every day of their life together.  He is so anxious.

Becuse he know what she is, her value.  Probably he is not enough for her, he doesn’t deserve her, but he will try anyway.

Luke wants Penelope to know how long he waited this moment. No shame; not tonight.

HE DID IT! There is no turning back.

SHE SAID YES!  But he prefers to be sure... and he is also about to cry so he needs to take time.  And she smiles at him, repeating “Yeah”. This is for real a magic night.

FINAL GOAL ACHIEVED. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

Happy ever after.

All my ramblings

Don’t you remember?

Bloodbound Fanfiction (characters and main story belongs to Pixelberry Studios).

Pairing: Kamilah Sayeed and MC (Annie)

Information: this takes place long after Bloodbound 3. In this scenario, MC was Turned only after giving birth to their daughter.

Summary: Thirty years after meeting Annie for the first time, now Kamilah is married and has a daughter who is about to get married as well. While preparing the wedding, they decide to remember Lysia’s childhood stories.

Warnings: just fluff.

Part 1 Part 3

Don’t you remember? - Part 2

January 8th, 2049

           They decided to have lunch at Annie’s favourite Italian restaurant. It was right around the corner, and Kamilah was definitely in the mood for some good wine. She asked for their best bottle of Sauvignon Blanc, watching as her wife smiled across the table. So many years ago, they sat at a different restaurant and shared their first bottle of wine. Ever since, Kamilah kept asking for the same type, even though it wasn’t her favourite. It had good memories attached to it.

           “Bring five glasses, please. And make it two bottles. We’re expecting more company.” Annie smiled at their confuse expressions. “I texted Adrian and Lily, they’re coming for lunch too.”

           “Aunt Lily is back already? The wedding is not until two weeks.” Lysia crossed her legs, a proud and perfect posture, just like Kamilah.

           Annie, on the other hand, looked like a child playing with the fork and the empty plate. “She’s your godmother, it’s her duty to help us organizing it. Annnnnnnnnd Lil loves planning parties. We stayed up all night putting together the perfect playlist.”

           “Should I be afraid?” Lysia sighed, already imagining what kind of songs they chose.

           “Nah, I promise we behaved.” She winked at her daughter, watching the waiter bring their wine almost at the same time Adrian and Lily walked in. “Perfect timing, you two.”

           “Lucky us for being just down the street. Hi, sweetie.” Adrian gave Lysia a tight hug, sitting right beside her, while Lily placed loud kisses on both girl’s cheeks before going to Annie’s side.

           Kamilah was the first to lift her glass, already used to her wife’s love for toasts.

           “To the best person ever born in this planet!” said Annie, followed by ‘cheers’ from the rest of the group.

           After a sip of wine, the Egyptian gently placed a hand on her daughter’s shoulder. “Sweetheart, I believe we promised your mother we would tell baby stories now.”

           “Yes, you did promise me that!!!”

           “Oooh yeah, let’s do it!! My favourite is when I accidentally forgot a chocolate bar on the table, and she ate it all.” Lily chuckled, ignoring the dangerous glare from Kamilah. “Girl, you were a happy kid that day. But I almost got killed because of it.”

           “There was also that time we took you to Disney, and none of these two party pooper over here wanted to let you ride the roller coaster.” Annie pointed at her wife and Adrian with her half empty glass. “Not until you cried so much, they decided to accompany you there. Remember that?”

           “Yes, I would give anything to see it again. Everybody laughing, breathless, messy hair, wrinkled clothes, heart raced, and you two looked like nothing had happened.” Lysia shook her head in disbelief.

           Kamilah smiled proudly. “It takes way more than a kid’s playground to put me breathless.”

           “Yeah. It takes me.” Annie bit her lip, quickly finding her wife’s leg under the table. That only made Lysia sigh at her shameless mother.

“What about you, Uncle Adrian? Do you have a favourite memory?”

           “I do.” His smile was soft as he took one of the girl’s hands. “You were just three years old. The first time you said my name. Don’t you remember, Annie? Tell us.”

           “Hum, I think I do… It was during the spring…”

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------

May 22nd, 2023

           Kamilah was late. Not a surprise there.

           Annie got so used to it. Every time they had a night out planned, a sudden phone call or an urgent email would pop up and delay things. That’s why she started to set their dates a couple hours earlier than usual. Now, her wife was an hour late, but it wasn’t even 6pm yet, so there was still plenty of time to finish combing her hair while mumbling alone. “I swear, one of these days I’ll call her assistant and book a fake business meeting. This way, she will be on time.”

           “You actually did it.” Kamilah pinched her nose, interrupting the story.

           “Really, mom?”

           “Yeah. I booked a meeting under the name of Jaden Marshall. You should’ve seen her face when she realized what happened … Anyway, focus.”

           “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa” screamed Lysia, giggling as trying to run towards the door. Annie already knew what that meant.

           “Hi, Adrian!”

           “Evening, Ann! And hi to you, baby.” He took the girl into his arms and lifted her above his head. Those baby laughs filled the house, echoing through the hallway from where Annie appeared. “Am I late?”

           “No, you’re early. Kamilah is still on the phone.”

           Lysia, who now was well nested on her godfather’s arms, looked back at her mother with those huge dark eyes. “Mommy late.”

           “I know, sweetie. Your mother is always late.” Annie kissed the tip of her nose. “You better behave, okay? And Adrian, please, don’t spoil my baby too much. Between you doing everything she wants and Kamilah wanting her to be totally independent, I’ll go crazy over here.”

           “I won’t make such a promise.” His gaze lingered on Lysia’s face for a moment as slowly walking to sit on the couch. “How can I say no to those eyes?”

           “Ask Kamilah, she does that all the time. Last week, I caught her watching Lysia fall when she was trying to get on top of the bed, and refused to help because, and I quote, ‘mortals need to develop their skills from an early age’.”

           “Talking about me again? Save it for the date tonight, my love.” The Vampire Queen emerged from the stairs, a tone of irony on her voice. She had put an astonishing tight white dress. “Thank you for being here, Adrian.”

           “Not a problem. Take your time tonight. We’ll be fine.”

           Kamilah smiled fondly at them, gently leaning in to kiss her wife, but they were interrupted by Lysia’s voice. The girl had crawled out of Adrian’s lap to energetically point at her mothers.

           “Mommy Kami” she giggled, then shifted to point at Annie. “And silly mommy Anna”.

           “You taught her that, didn’t you?” the Brazilian narrowed her eyes to Kamilah.

           “I have no idea what you’re talking about. She added the ‘silly’ on her own.”

           “Lyshia” the girl pointed at herself while sticking her tongue out, not being able to pronounce her name correctly yet. Then, she turned around, running back to Adrian’s lap. Her small hands went to cup his face, putting their foreheads together. “Andi you, my baby. You are my baby Adian.”

           Kamilah arched her eyebrows, confused. “No, sweetie. You’re the baby. That’s how we call you.”

           But Adrian didn’t listen. He had tears on his eyes, arms holding the girl even closer. “You are the most precious thing in this world. How is Kamilah even able to say no to you?”

           “Easy. Look. Lysia, no.”  

           Annie shook her head. “You’re unbelievable. Let’s go. It’s time.”

           As they were leaving the apartment, even from the elevator, it was possible to hear Lysia giggling happily in there. That sound was so perfect, it would always make Annie’s heart melt inside her chest. She smiled when felt her wife’s arms involving her by the waist, bringing them closer to another kiss.

           “Darling… Do you think something is wrong with Adrian? He has been crying a lot lately.” Kamilah sighed, concerned.

           “No, you shouldn’t worry. He’s just healing.”

           “Healing?”

           “His heart. After those deep wounds, losing a wife and a child, Lysia is helping him heal. Sometimes, babies do that with us. It’s their superpower.”

           “I see…” Kamilah’s expression became serious for a moment. They were already in the parking lot, so she trapped her wife against the car’s door. “If that’s true… Why don’t we make another one of those?”

           Annie gasped. Cofed. Then laughed. “Not that fast, Mrs. Sayeed. If you want another, don’t look at me. Pushing one out was hard enough.”

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

January 8th, 2049

           “WAIT!” Lily held her hands high to stop Annie’s story. “Kamilah wanted another child? How come I never knew about it?”            

           “Because she changed her mind one month after that, when Lysia went inside her office and draw all over her papers. Besides…” her gaze lingered on Kamilah’s face for a moment, considering carefully what to say. “She wanted me to get pregnant again just to delay things. You were worried about me being Turned, weren’t you?”

           “I was just afraid you could regret it. What if a year later you wanted another baby? I needed to be sure you had considered all the alternatives.” The Egyptian leaned to hold her wife’s hands across the table. “I would never forgive myself for taking away your chances of experiencing what I couldn’t.”

           “You didn’t take away anything. I was sure. Still am.” She intertwined their fingers, both sharing a soft smile.

           Next to them, there was Lily trying to steal a picture with her cell phone. “Perfect. This will go to the slideshow for the wedding.”

           “Wait, what slideshow? Oh, for god’s sake, what are you two up to?” Lysia finished her wine in a gulp. “If I see a naked baby picture there…”

           “You won’t.” reassured Lily.

           “…or you will.” completed Annie, dramatically wiggling her eyebrows. “Sorry, kiddo. That’s the family you got.”

           The weirdest and most perfect family it could exist, in Lysia’s opinion.

"Oh! Duke Antoine!" Iris skips over to the Scientia patriarch with a smile, careful not to exactly run in the halls here. "Mama wanted me to give this to you," she says, handing over a bag filled with prepped meals and large tumbler of cofee. "You and papa have been staying overnight in your offices recently so she was worried about your health."

Of course nobody listens to him. So rarely does anybody of notelisten to him these days– he’d been insisting for years that TitusDrautos be watched, and watched closely. Of course the king’saction is an inaction. He has absented himself from council since,content to be in the kitchen and handle what scraps of mattersRegis still deems worthy of his time.

He pauses on his tracks at the familiar voice, and the Duke of Vannathhalf-turns to see Lady Iris. He schools the frustration and exhaustionfrom his face and offers her instead a smile as he accepts herofferings with both hands.

“Ahh, please tell the Countess thank you. I might drop theseoff myself tonight– your father and I finally agreed on beer night.”

A complex simple Dream ~

Yes, we unfortunately got to the times where having simple dreams became complex and a long term dificult thing to achieve…

All I wanted? To have our own house, near a forest and a small river in the distance, where we could see the deers walking by, mixed with the autumn colors on the landscape. Watching them passing by, drinking cofee with a book on my hand on a very cozy home, a blanket and you by my side. Being able to enjoy the winter and watch the snow fall as almost the time could be slowed down, all the anxiety gone and all our worries and problems being non existent.

All I wanted was to calmly make an aromatic dinner on a pretty kitchen, a candle on, while I watch and listen to some tv show. Cooking with all the good stuff we grew ourselves in on our own garden and picked by hand. Feeling you arrive home and kiss me on the forehead asking what I am cooking tonight and what movie are we watching by the fireplace. As our dog sleeps peacefully by the couch and our cats sleep on their fluffy warm beds. I wanted our home to smell like vanilla candles and freshly picked berries. Freshly baked cookies and apple pies. Where the afternoon sun could enter all over our home shine trough the windows as the apple pie cool down on the golden hour.

All I wanted was to go outside our house and feel the fresh air on an afternoon, smelling the trees and listening to what nature wanted to give. Melodic smooth sounds of the wind through the tall trees, the river very lightly on the background.

Also wanted to enjoy the rainy days on the couch full of comfy blankets. Enjoy feeling the cold, the peacefull sounds and feeling safe, feeling at home, finally.

Still be able to enjoy games with you at night and watch videos together when we get bored of it.

On summer? Oh we could finally enjoy the sun, go swimming on the river nearby, enjoying the sun kissing our skins and the cold river water. I want to wear a summer dress and pick the strawberries we wanted to see if they would grow and give you to try how sweet they are.

Then get back to the beautifull fall season, where we can decorate our house for halloween and watch horror movies eating sweet stuff. While I fall asleep on your lap.

Why it has to be a dream? Why so far away from reality? Why is it possible but still dificult to conquer? Why society demands us to be rats in a maze… not being able to enjoy life, making dreams come true and when we say we are sad, all they give are happy pills.

I want to live by my own nature. I wanna make our dreams come true or I wanna go to sleep and dream, never waking up again to this current nightmare stuck in a loop rulled by society where our dreams are just dreams and will never be more than that.

I wanna be on the forest, dreaming, smelling the pure and fresh air, living… with you. - Annie, MindlessWrittings .

Hailee × Reader (part 5) - Christmas shopping

It was 10 days before Christmas. Hailee texted you and said 'I'm free tonight. How about I take you out tonight and we can go any place you wanna go?'

You smiled and texted her back. 'Let's do it! What time are you gonna pick me up?'

Hailee sent you a text message. 'Around 5/5:30pm'

You sent her a text back. 'Sounds good! Cant wait!!" And you put some kiss emojis and heart emojis.

Hailee sent you heart emojis and lots of kisses emojis.

You blushed and put your phone back on the desk on the computer at your local library. You took a psychology class on alison.com about being free from mental pain. You passed the assessment with 90% and a certificate of completion too.

"Yes!" You whispered loudly. You felt so happy and proud of yourself for doing so well on that assessment. You love psychology you love learning new skills too.

You printed out your new certificate of completion and took a picture of it and sent it to your girlfriend.

Hailee saw your picture and smiled. She texted you. 'YAAAYY! Congratulations babe!!! Proud of you love you!!'

You read her text and typed 'Thank you baby!! Love you!!!'

You put your certificate of completion in your folder and drove home. You took a shower and got ready. You put on sneakers with a shirt and a hoodie and a hat.

Around 5pm Hailee sent you a text. 'On my way!'

'Okay!' You texted her back.

Around 10 minutes later Hailee texted you. 'Here!'

You walked down the stairs of your house and told your uncle and grandma "I'm going out with Hailee. I'll be back later".

"Okay". Said your uncle.

"Okay, have fun" said your grandma.

You opened the door and closed the door outside your house and saw Hailee. She got out the car and ran to you. You ran to her and you both gave each other a huuuge hug.

"Hi babe!!" Said Hailee.

"Heeeey" you said.

You and Hailee looked at each other in the eyes and kissed and kissed. "Ready to go hangout?" She asked you.

"Yeah!" You said.

"Let's go get iced cofee". Said hailee.

"Ooh I love iced coffee!" You said excitedly.

Hailee giggled. "I made a new song today. I made a song about you actually". She said.

"Aww babe. Really?" You said.

"Yes!" Said Hailee. "I'll play it for you in a bit".

"Cant wait to hear it!" You said.

You and Hailee got out the car and walked into Dunkin donuts. She ordered a medium iced coffee with almond milk and you got a medium iced coffee with caramel and a little bit of milk with extra ice.

After you and here got iced coffee you both put your seatbelts on and Hailee played you the song she made for you.

You were amazed. You felt proud she made a song about you, her girlfriend. You felt loved. Special. And happy.

After the song was over you said "wow babe! That song was amazing!! I love it! Did you mean what you said when you said you're in love with me?" You asked.

Sometimes you felt insecure. You've been in love before but those relationships never really worked out.

"Of course I mean it, Lexi. I am so in love with you my pumpkin". Said Hailee.

You smiled and kissed her hand as she held your hand. "I'm in love with you too!" You said.

Hailee smiled and said "And you're mine and no I wont share haha".

You laughed.

Once you and Hailee arrived at the mall she parked the car. "What's that place you like that sells the comic books and super hero shirts?" Hailee asked you.

"Newbury comics". You said.

She kissed you and you kissed back. "I want to buy you an early Christmas present". Said Hailee.

"Are you sure you wanna do that babe?" You asked Hailee.

"Yes" said Hailee. "You have done so well in your online classes. I wanna treat your baby to something nice".

You kissed her nose and she giggled. "I love you". You said to her.

"I love you too!" Said Hailee and she kissed her on your hair. "Come on babe let's go hangout at the mall!"

After you and her got out the her car you and Hailee held hands. You felt safe when she squeezed your hand and squeezed you when she hugs you.

You and Hailee went to lids and you for yourself a basketball hat. You and her went to hot topic then to Newbury comics. She bought you a marvel tshirt with super heroes on it. "Thank you for the shirt". You said to your girlfriend.

"Aw you welcome!" Said hailee.

You bought Hailee a new top as an early Christmas present for her.

"Thank you for the new top. Its really cute!" Said Hailee.

"Of course. Anything for you!". You said to hailee. You and her walked around the laughing and cuddling in the mall.

You and hailee got pizza for dinner and watched a movie at your house.

Hong Kong Summer Foodie Adventure August 2019

After a two month absence, I am back in Hong Kong for another short foodie adventure located near to my home away from home, JW Marriott Hong Kong.

KOKOMI: Shop 002 LG Pacific Place, Admiralty

The Japanese causal dining restaurant was packed during lunch hour and I promptly queued like everyone else to try to find out what the fuss was all about. I was not disappointed as I indulged in a delicious bowl of Japanese rice topped with a generous serving of minced fatty tuna, ikura (salmon roe), and uni (sea urchin). Every mouthful is a savory piece of treasure from the sea, delivered in a neat little package for a relaxing lunch before returning back to the daily grind.

Sun’s Bazaar: Shop 112, 1/F, Pacific Place, 88, Queensway, Admiralty

After a couple of hours of emails, I found myself wandering to Sun’s Bazaar to enjoy its afternoon tea break delights. The menu offerings change daily to keep it fresh for diners and each tea break set can be customized with signature drinks from their bar. For my Tuesday tea break, I ordered the Taiwanese Braised Chicken Rice paired with a signature glass of Peach Oolong with Mini Taro Balls. The chicken rice was aromatic, spicy and perfectly charred for a satisfying meal while the Peach Oolong tea was refreshing, helping to doze the flames on my taste buds as I ventured back for more spicy goodness.

KYTALY: 5th Floor, Carfield Commercial Building, 77 Wyndham St, Central

Touted as serving the best pizza in the world, KYTALY has a lot of expectations to live up to and I guess it delivers most of the time.

MARGHERITA DOP: Tomato San Marzano DOP, Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP, extra virgin olive oil. 

I rate this pizza as the best of the night as it is simple, delicious, and knocks it out of the park with its well-balanced flavors and crispy crust.

LA«PIZZA RITROVATA»MASTRO STEFANO: Tomato sauce, piennolo tomato, dried capers, black olives powder, deep fried basil, Cetara anchovies, extra virgin olive oil.

This unique pizza does not feature any cheese and delivers am unusual flavor profile that will make you either fall head over heels in love with it or run away like a bad Tinder date. For me, I love the spicy flavors and savory anchovies that reminds me of a well seasoned Sichuan dish. 

SCARPETTA:  Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP, cream of Grana Padano DOP 12 months aged cheese, 3 tomatoes compote, shavings of Grana Padano 24 months aged cheese, freeze dried pesto.

This pizza rates as the strongest flavored dish of the night, with the pizza being divided into 8 pieces instead of the usual 4 pieces to account for its heavy flavor profile. As always, I love the beautiful tomato compote that provided much needed acidity to cut through the strong cheesy flavors, with a refreshing touch brought by the freeze dried pesto.

For dessert, I would recommend the TIRAMISU “CLASSICO” consisting of sponge biscuits, cofee, eggs, mascarpone, and cacao. It is definitely one of the largest serving of tiramsu that I have ever seen, and the larger-than-life flavors definitely matches its stature and presence on the dining table.

Top Blade Steak Lab: G/F, 2-4 Hysan Avenue, Causeway Bay

Famous for its affordable top-grade steaks and free-flow french fries cut and fried to perfection, Top Blade Steak Lab is definitely a recommended must-visit for steak lovers in the city.

For tonight’s dinner, I had the honor of savoring its USA Prime 390 days grain feed flat iron cooked medium rare. The steak was well marbled, tender, and juicy without being overly bearing on your taste buds. It is definitely one of the most tender cuts of meat that I have ever experienced and I would be back for more in the future.

Elephant Grounds: 8 Wing Fung St, Wan Chai

Well known for its great selection of beans and roast, Elephant Grounds is a great cafe to chill and relax after a satisfying meal. For my visit, I ordered the unusual Bulletproof Coffee which is a blend of Americano, butter, and coconut oil. The concoction might seem strange but I assure you that it is a silky smooth cup of caffeine heaven unlike any that you have experienced. You just have to try it for yourself to know what I am talking about. 

Wagyu Vanne: 1F, Tower 535, 535 Jaffe Road, Causeway Bay

For my lunch on the last day of my visit, I decided to indulge in a mini celebration at Wagyu Vanne which is currently rated as one of the best places in town to savor wagyu beef. Although I visited the restaurant on a packed Friday lunch hour, the service staff kindly accommodated me when they heard that I had to catch a flight home in a couple of hours. To reciprocate their kind gesture, I decided to order the most expensive lunch set from their tasting menu and finish my meal as quickly as possible to allow more diners to enjoy this restaurant.

My tasting menu comprised of the world famous "HIYAMA" A5 Kuroge Wagyu Selection and Thick Cut Wagyu Tongue.

Starters began with Japanese F1 Wagyu “Tataki”, Crab Miso Soup, and Signature Tempura comprising of mushrooms, beef, and uni (Sea urchin) roll. Each starter is absolutely amazing and it helps me to forget all about the long 16-hour work days for the week, energizing my tired body in order to take on more challenges ahead.

Main stars of the tasting menu comprised of six slices of “HIYAMA" A5 Kuroge Wagyu from three different cuts and a thick slice of Wagyu Tongue. Words cannot describe the intense yet subtle flavors of each cut as I give thanks for every bite that I had, savoring the moment and remembering it with my senses.

My perfect lunch ended with a refreshing sorbet served beautifully as always, with a calming emerald green.

Halfway Coffee: 12 Tung St, Sheung Wan

With just a bit of time before takeoff, I had to enjoy a quick chat with my confidant at Halfway Coffee located within the alleys of Sheung Wan, filled with artistic vibes from inviting unique stores patronized by guests that simply want to enjoy a slower pace of life in this urban jungle.

Besides the usual blends, you have to try its signature offerings such as rose latte and longan honey latte. Each drink is served in a unique paper cup reminiscent of traditional Chinese ceramics.

And with that, I had to bid farewell again to the Pearl of the Orient.

However, I shall return again soon to the city that satisfied my belly and stole my heart.
