This is something that happens after a few years of Blake and Yang being a couple and knowing their boundaries. Nothing is really being forced.
Yang: (adjusting her tie) Hey, Babe. Can you help me with this thing-gah....
Blake: (wearing a backless dress) Hmm?
Yang: (dumbstruck) Wow.... You look... Amazing.
Blake: Well. Thank you. You're looking rather dashing yourself.
Yang: Mmhmm... (steps closer to Blake)
Blake: Ah-Ah-Ah! (pulls Gambol Shroud out of the dresser and points it at Yang) No. Down, girl. I know that look, and I can't afford to be late to this dinner.
Yang: (holds hands out in a grabing motion and whimpers) But-But-But... pretty lady deserves kisses.
Blake: (can't help but smile) No.
Yang: (steps forward)
Blake: (pulls GS back so it doesn't rip Yang's shirt) Nooo.
Yang: (takes one more step forward and puts her hands on Blake’s hips)
Blake: (drops GS and puts a finger on Yang’s lips with a giggle) Yang!
Yang: (puppy eyes)
Blake: Okay, one kiss.
Yang: Yay! (Kisses)
Blake: (kisses) Yang.
Yang: (kiss-kiss-kiss-kiss-kiss-kiss-)
Blake: (Falls back on the bed with a girlish giggle as she keeps up with all of Yang’s kisses) Yang, come on. Oh!~ Maybe a few minutes~

“Alright!” I grin up at the [bird]. “Ready to dance?”
The [bird] responds with another shriek, lightning crackling in the shape of feathers along its wings.
“Oh crud—”
The [bird] flaps, dislodging the electric feathers and sending them shooting my direction. I run for cover behind an overturned table, but I’m not fast enough to avoid all the feathers. Each one that hits leaves a shock that feels like gravel scraping against my skin, followed by tingling numbness.
“Well I suppose that’s a yes,” I mutter to myself. One of the feathers hit my elbow, and when I try to flex my fingers, nothing happens except a wave of pins and needles down my forearm. Normally, now would be about the time Ciri would heal me with a word or three of caution, but she’s not here right now. I’m going to have to figure this out with half my limbs not responding properly.
“Think think think,” I mutter, risking a glance over the table at the [bird]. It’s turned its attention away from me for now, focusing on one of the potted plants close to it. “What would Ciri do?”
“She’d say you’re a reckless idiot for trying to rush in like that,” a familiar voice snapped.
I whirl around and blink in shock. Ciri’s irritation melts into something more like relief. “Be careful,” she adds, her hands lighting up with her cyan magic as she presses them to the red marks where I was hit.
I hiss as tingling replaces the numbness and blurt out the first thing that pops into my head to distract myself. “You got a haircut.”
Ciri gapes at me, unconsciously going to tug on her bangs. Instead of the long mess of curls I’m used to, her hair curls just below her ears in a cute bob.
“That’s seriously—” Ciri starts, but cuts off with a huff and a shake of her head. She reaches over my head, and I sense more than anything the wave of magic she summons, buying us more time before we’re attacked. “That is really not the point!” she says.
“I know, sorry, just startled me.” The pins and needles have died down to something manageable, and I shift onto my knees. “Speaking of, what are you even doing here?”
Ciri gives me an unimpressed look.
“Okay, fine, later,” I concede.

'light blue heart'! - kaede
Tumblr media
who curses more?
it's a tie, i feel like. nao for sure says fuck a lot, but kaede's always saying shit and fuck. the only thing that would really get in their way here is social standing, given that nao is a zen'in and kaede's just conditioned to behave a certain way in front of the right and wrong people
who is more patient?
LOL neither of them. maybe kaede slightly more so than nao, but it's really not by much. they're both such brats BI
who does the driving?
neither of them, they pay somebody for that wym
who is louder? who is quieter?
it depends on where and when, but both of them can be pretty loud - kaede, most definitely, in bed. nao, all the time. he's always yelling - with kaede sksksk
who is more physically affectionate?
they have their ways, but i'm going to say kaede. he's always, always touching nao in some way, clinging to him, demanding attention. nao does the same at times, but it's still mostly kaede lbr
who is more likely to tease the other?
naoya. 100% naoya and you know exactly why. because he's a little bastard
who is better with time management?
i would say, naoya. if only because of his position as head of the hei and all the adulting he's gotta do in relation to that. kaede more or less does whatever he wants with his time, within reason, which is why he can be found at the zen'in estate so often unu
who wins the arm wrestling matches?
they don't have time for arm wrestling. any wrestling they do is going down in the sack, like let's be honest megu. if, if they had an arm wrestling match, it could go either way because both of them play dirty, and of course their prides would be wounded whoever loses
who controls the music in the car ride?
probably naoya, kaede doesn't care all that much. actually, i don't think either of them do. they'd be too busy making out behind the privacy window. what's their driver gonna do? tell somebody? no
who covers dinner when they order in?
naoya, and i think we talked about this. he does some spoiling, even when he doesn't know what to do or give, but he defaults to clothes and jewelry - expensive things, which kaede likes so it works. i mean, vacationing at some island resort for the weekend? naoya pays for that and that's gift enough on its own, since they get to spend time alone together in private and do whatever they want unu
who is more outgoing? who is more shy?
i wouldn't say either are specifically outgoing or shy, but abrasive and moody. because they are. they are that way, no matter what situation they're in and especially with each other
who has the more outlandish fashion sense?
neither of them really. i mean kaede dresses a little provocatively sometimes, but for the most part, he's wearing modified haori and hakama, so nothing really all that out there. and nao's always got on kimono, so again nothing crazy. the only thing nutty about nao's clothes is that sometimes he wears casual clothes and drives kaede wild
who starts the tickle fights? who ends them?
i'd say nao would start and end them, if ever, and he'd end them with bites that turn into something more where they can afford the time. i just don't see it ending any other way really ububu
who has the darker/more “edgy” sense of humor?
i'm once again saying nao--
who is more competitive when it comes to games?
they're both fairly competitive, so i can see them both trying to one-up each other literally every chance they get. they've been that way since they were kids, why should it be any different now omg sore losers and sore winners both let's be honest
who has the bigger appetite? the bigger sweet tooth?
kaede eats a lot, but usually through snacking throughout the day. he has his boba, and just nibbles on grapes, energy bars, the odd bowl of fish and rice, street foods, things like that. i fully believe nao eats. he can put some food away
who is more likely to get in a confrontation in public?
both of them wym skdjkfjhf no but, i think it depends on the circumstances. curses abound? yes, immediate i think. random dillholes being dicks? yeah, maybe, depending on how egregious the dickishness, but also i have to think of nao's reputation and how he has to maintain that in order to be clan head - i am not sure there, but i like to think a man throws down
who hosts the parties/hangouts? who organizes them?
naoya does, and kaede sneaks away with him while everyone is distracted- no but, i think they organize their time together in a more reciprocal, mutual sense. like they take turns, it doesn't really matter. they're both needy as hell. idiots to lovers here
who is better at cooking? do they ever cook for each other?
kaede can cook, but the real stars here are naoya's chefs and the restaurants they go to like ksjdhfsdf
who is more likely to engage in dangerous and/or illegal behavior?
dangerous behavior? both of them. entirely. illegail activities? depends on the activity, but not really for kaede. except he's paid for sex once so, prostitution...? in terms of sorcerer society, he disregards the rules 99% of the time
who is more likely to notice when something is wrong with the other?
they both notice but for different reasons and not always out of the kindness of their hearts. sometimes naoya's an ass about things, and sometimes kaede hits the 'foot in mouth' button and makes things worse himself. they just handle things poorly. for example: naoya cares that kaede was hurt in that one thread we had, and he shows it by being visibly upset about it in that very mean, dysfunctional sort of way, berating kaede who just kind of takes it. toxic way to deal with someone you love incurring horrible injuries, but in the end he carries him to bed and tends to the rest of his wounds, so it's clear he very much cares but is just an ass. yanno what i mean?
who does the talking in public settings (i.e. to the waiter at a restaurant)?
i'm going to say it's a 66-33% kinda deal, cos kaede doesn't really give a shit and naoya's so domineering, but then kaede has his moments where he can be much the same - it just kinda depends, but i'm willing to say naoya does most of the talking, maybe even orders for kaede sometimes, just talks over him sksk 'shut up honey, i got this'
who is more likely to extend a helping hand & provide emotional support?
i think, kaede is. he's much more sensitive and understanding than naoya is, but tbh he could rationalize himself into a death sentence so i'm not entirely sure he's healthy about it skjdfhf he loves naoya and can see when he's stressed or tired and needs some sort of comfort, and will go out of his way to give it. naoya will do the same as it suits him, and in a wholly dysfunctional way. honestly both of them but in different...like, ways
who is the bigger prankster? do they get the last laugh or do they suffer for it?
i wouldn't say they prank each other at all, but they would both be made to suffer ksjdfh they're just. not big jokesters with each other

"Stripey sounds like something a child would come up with." Rust rolled his eyes. "My name is far better than something so--- banal." His real name...but he wouldn't dare give it to this hedgehog. No- he wasn't worth its real name. Not if xey could beat them in this race.
He was accustomed to being unbeatable- the pinnacle of scientific development...so it was something altogether foreign to see this hedgehog keeping up with him. He would chalk it up to being away from his base for too long- for letting the imperfections in its DNA get the better of xem.
Or maybe he'd finally found a worthy opponent.
Tumblr media
If xey were a lesser mobian--- Rust grit his teeth, trying not to let out the growl that was building in their throat. Shark Bite was right- and that fact alone was damning. He was far too easy to anger, and he knew it- but that wasn't about to stop it from winning this accursed competition...!
But even as Ti'Nal blasted into the two's front line of sight, even as they soared towards it- he couldn't help but notice that their positions didn't seem to shift. Shark Bite wasn't falling behind- xey weren't pulling ahead.
And as the two's shoes finally landed within the city limits- Rust came to an immediate, sharp stop. He could've stopped on a ring at the speed he'd suddenly halted- feeling their shoulders quiver slightly.
Chaos.
Fucking.
DAMNIT.
"I'll have you know I'm fantastic at both running and naming things, Hot Stuff," Shark Bite scoffed. "Your name better have more than two syllables and sound like a choir of angels came up with it if you think those are stupid." Ti'Nal was so close! Shark Bite was certain he'd win! Well, actually, no, he wasn't. This guy was super fast, faster than Shark Bite initially suspected! What a delightful surprise but also Shark Bite was feeling... irritated? Guess he got too used to winning. Eh, no biggie. He'll just win this! "Maybe you shouldn't be so easy to rile up if you wanted me to stay 'out of your way'," Shark Bite pitched his voice down for that last bit, actively mocking its voice. Shark Bite looked ahead, seeing the 'finish line' coming in. He grinned, leaning forward into the wind. Just a little more...!

Based on this ask
Obsessed!Coriolanus Snow x Innocent!Reader, Obsessed!Crassus Snow x Innocent!Reader
WARNING ⚠️ Coriolanus Snow is a warning in and of itself. Cussing, obsession, older man/younger woman, father & son both want the same girl, reader is just too sweet for this world and has no idea that the men in the Snow family are toxic...
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Part 1:
You've known Coriolanus Snow and his family ever since you were a little girl. When the war started, you were about 5, and Crassus, Coriolanus' father, helped you, your mother, and your brother get smuggled into the Capitol as a favor to your father, a Colonel who served under him in District 12 while he was a General; the Commander.
Sadly your father, Colonel Javanis Halvir, didn't survive the war. Tragically, Coriolanus' mother died during the first bombing strike on Capitol City. She died in the birthing bed, weeks before she was due, because the bombing had triggered off her labor. Coriolanus' little sister died too. Was stillborn.
But since your families knew one another and lived in the same building they huddled together during the war. Your mother wasn't too thrilled about having to receive help from Grandma’am Snow and a seedy neighbor that owned a nightclub, but she dealt with it in order to survive and protect her children: you and your older brother.
General Crassus Snow barely made it out of the war alive. He was nearly killed in the woods outside of 12. But, alas, he survived and returned home to Capitol City, Panem a war hero. He also came back with a heavily lined pocket although District 13 was destroyed and that's where all of his assets, factories, and science labs were located.
Your mother told you and your brother that Crassus was a cold, cunning, calculating man and that she's positive that he somehow brokered a deal to get paid for the loss of his assets.
What nobody knows, except for the higher powers that be of course, is that Crassus still has his factories and labs in District 13. They're nuclear weapons factories and, since 13 went underground as an independent nation via a hush hush backroom midnight deal between the leader of 13 and Panem's President Ravenstill, a deal that went into effect before the Districts surrender and the signing of the Treaty of Treason. Crassus is a black market arms dealer. He sells his nucs to neighboring countries. Countries that include Canada (yes, they never changed their name after the wars and natural disasters that drastically changed the geography of the world) and a small coalition of old world Eastern European countries that survived the rising sea levels that had eradicated some island countries and shoreline countries of old world Europe.
Crassus Snow takes a lot of out of town business trips to broker illegal arms deals between the underground District 13 and the countries that he's constructed alliances with. General Crassus Snow had no loyalties to Panem any more; his only loyalties were to himself and his family. He also had a sliver of a sense of honor when it came to his old comrade’s family and felt the need to watch over your family: the Halvir family.
But after being shot by rebels, left for dead in the woods, and barely being able to survive long enough to trek back to the PK Base D-12’s hospital, General Crassus Snow truly lost faith in the country that he was supposed to serve proudly. But did he ever truly have faith in Panem as a country since he was in the woods, sneaking like a thief in the night, to get to District 13 to check his assets and his alliances there?
Snow lands on top; Crassus was playing both sides of the war to ensure that his family came out winners. And then when his contacts in District 13 told him of the deal between the President and the Commander of 13, well…General Snow's career as an arms dealer was born.
It paid well and kept the Snow family living high off the hog. Crassus also supported your family with his endless money, much to your mother's dismay.
Your mother couldn't stand Crassus, out on a polite face for Grandma'am Snow, felt sorry for Tigris, and cringed with how you and Coriolanus were the best of friends.
And you remained best friends with Coriolanus Snow as the two of you grew up side by side. You always viewed the friendship as platonic, but a teenaged Coriolanus viewed it as more. He developed a crush on you that quickly turned into a dark, possessive obsession.
But Coriolanus was certain that what he felt for you was love.
And when it came to his father, who he was the spitting image of with the same tall, sinewy build, platinum blonde curls, striking icy blue eyes, chiseled jawline, and prominent nose, well…Crassus Snow had an obsession with you as well. But his obsession was rooted in a darker place than his son's.
The esteemed war here General Crassus Snow has a sick obsession with you because you favor your mother. And, well, when Crassus was a young grunt in 12, serving in the Peacekeepers under his father Xanthos who was the Commander of 12 at that time, he fell for your mother, but she didn't reciprocate his feelings. Instead she fell in love with his friend, Javanis Halvir. Thus the reason you and your older brother were born to Colonel Halvir and Mrs. Halvir.
Feeling jilted and betrayed by the object of his affection and obsession not loving him back, Crassus became a cold, cruel, cold, calculating, and cunning man. He put on his charming smile and wooed a young, pretty, naive girl from Capitol City. Demeter: Coriolanus’ mother.
But he never got over your mother, despite her hating him as the years went on. So you looking just like her once you hit your teenage years has Crassus falling down the rabbit hole into dark obsessive head spaces.
So, unknown to you, your platonic relationships with the men in the Snow family are anything, but that in their eyes. And they don't even know that the other has an obsession with you.
You know what they say…like father, like son.
Tumblr media
It's mid-May of your senior year at the Academy and you're so ready for the school year to end. You can't wait for graduation and for summer break. You also can't wait for the opportunity to spend your summer break hanging out with your best friend, Coryo.
Coriolanus Snow.
But you call him Coryo. Always have, always will.
But in the meantime you spend your weekends at the Snow penthouse; you also go home with him after school a couple of days during the week- much to your mother's dismay.
And this afternoon’s one of those days where you go home with Coryo after school.
“You're staying for dinner tonight, darling. The cook’s making your absolute favorite and I'd hate for you to miss out on it.” Coryo told you on the elevator ride up to the 12th floor of your Corso building.
The elevator had been broken for a few years, but after General Snow slapped some money at the apartment building association maintenance fixed the elevator and Grandma'am Snow was able to leave the penthouse and go out into the world with the help of a can instead of being kept locked up inside like a recluse.
“I hope you didn't ask the cook to make my favorite meal just to get me to stay for dinner.”
“Of course not. They plan the menu, not me.” Coryo tells you, a lopsided lipped smile on his face.
What neither of you knew was that Coryo's father, Crassus, and told (more so demanded) that the cook make your favorite meal. He knew that you'd be easier to sway to eat dinner with him and his family if the smell of your favorite dish was wafting in the air as you hung out with his son in his room.
And that was something Crassus was going to be putting a stop to. He can't have you spending so much time alone in Coriolanus' bedroom. What if the two of you start to become curious about- things…
Ugh, Crassus can't imagine you with his son. He thinks Coriolanus is a sassy, whinny, bratty, weakling of an heir. Too bad he couldn't toughen that boy up; too bad he's too much like his mother. Has too much good in him, can be easily pushed and pulled by a pretty face and the promise of love.
Crassus would prefer it if Coriolanus was more like him. More cold, more cunning, more calculated, and didn't wear his feelings on his damn sleeves.
Anyways…
The elevator stops and the doors ding open, revealing the hallway of the 12th floor. A floor that was solely inhabited by the mighty Snow family. They had the upper level penthouse that took the entire floor. It was quite impressive. You love it, but your mother hates it.
And talk about your mother…
“I know you want me to stay for dinner, Coryo, but I really shouldn't. My mother's been getting on me lately about how much time I spend up here with you.” You tell the boy with the light golden curls as the two of you exit the elevator.
“Your mother needs to take a chill pill. You're my girl, darling. It's completely normal to be spending all of your free time up here.” Coryo tells you while leading you over to the front door of his penthouse, palm of his hand resting lazily on the small of your back.
“I know, Coryo, but my mother hates that we're besties and she wants me to meet new people.”
“Meet new people?” Coryo scoffed, brows furrowed in disdain, as he opened the door to his place. “There's nobody new in Capitol City our age to meet, darling. Not unless you go to the mission in the slums by the rail station and start introducing yourself to those District immigrants that conned their way into our grand Capitol.” The cerulean eyes boy told you while ushering you into his penthouse and down the entrance hallway.
Coriolanus was personally offended by your mother. How dare she tell you to meet new people? You belong to him. You're his girl.
HIS GIRL!
HIS!
Coriolanus was good at schooling his features, considering he's been doing it his entire life to keep from letting his father know how bad his harsh and hateful words affected him, so you didn't catch onto how upset he was with your mother. No, you thought he was fine. As cool as a cucumber as he led you past the kitchen, where the cook was starting on dinner, and into the main room of the penthouse to acknowledge Grandma’am, who's always sitting in her favorite chair watching her soaps on CapitolTV during this time of the late afternoon.
“Oh, Coriolanus, you're home and I see you brought Y/N over to visit with you.” Grandma'am Snow, who was dressed to the nines in her jeweled turbin, silk tunic, extravagant jeweled brooch, and long strand of pearls. She was the epitome of Old Guard aristocratic lady of fineries and class.
“Yes, Grandma'am I'm home and my darling’s staying for dinner tonight.” Coriolanus smiles at his grandmother.
Coryo silently nudges you forward to give Grandma'am a hug while greeting her. It's something you've done you years and he doesn't want you to stop doing it either since his Grandma’am adores you.
If only Grandma'am could persuade his father that you're a good match for him. The old lady gets it, why can't his father get it? You and Coriolanus belong together; make quite the pair.
But if the platinum haired boy with a halo of curls on his head only knew that he wasn't the only one obsessed and lusting after you- well…
“Good afternoon, Grandma'am. It's so good to see you.” You smile sweetly, hugging the regal old woman that you've come to love and think of as your own grandmother over the years.
“It's also so good to see you too, my dear.” Grandma'am replies, patting your back as she reciprocates the hug. “Has our Coriolanus asked you to the prom yet?” She inquired, as a way to push you and her grandson together, your hug broke apart.
“Not officially, but we have an understanding that we'll be going together since we go to all of the galas, balls, and dances together.” You tell Grandma’am while returning to Coryo's side.
Coryo’s fiddling with the strap of his satchel, that's currently across his chest, as he awaits Grandma'am’s reply. Or, a lecture aimed at him to properly ask you. A lecture she's been giving him daily since the beginning of the month.
And sure as shit, Coriolanus gets his prom lecture.
Grandma'am looks at her grandson, who's his father's spitting image, and firmly tell him, “Coriolanus, properly ask her. You're a Snow and as a Snow doesn't assume things, but makes them happen.” Cutting her eyes at her only grandchild, she orders in a grandmotherly way, “Now, properly as her as your prom date before somebody else tries to snatch her up from you.”
You felt a bit awkward. Grandma'am’s lecture was something you felt she should've given Coryo in private, not while you're by his side. It wasn't meant for your ears, or at least you don't think it was.
Coriolanus’ lips draw taunt into a tight line as he tells his grandmother, “Yes, Grandma'am.” He half nods at her before turning to you. Giving you a smile that shows too many teeth, like a wolf baring its fangs before its prey, he takes your hands in his and asks, “Y/N, my darling rose, will you do me the honor of going to prom with me?”
It felt more like a marriage proposal than a promposal. Aren't promposals supposed to be fun and exciting with songs, dances, and glittery handmade poster boards? Not so serious. Right?
Right?
You're already going to prom with Coryo, but since you've been out on the spot with a promposal you have to formally accept. All thanks to Grandma'am.
“Of course I'll go to prom with you, Coryo.” You answered your best friend, causing his icy eyes to sparkle with joy.
It all felt so surreal. A bit heavy too. Honestly, it felt like you were agreeing to give your best friend your hand in marriage right in front of his regal grandmother then agreeing to go to prom.
Unknown to you, you accepting Coryo's proposal was, in fact, you agreeing to a future marriage to him in the delusional minds of both Coriolanus and Grandma’am.
Mhm…
You just signed your freedom away by saying yes to prom and you don't even know it, all because you view your relationship as platonic. Too bad the platinum blonde boy with baby blue eyes and his sophisticated grandma view the relationship as something more.
Coryo's father, Crassus, also views your relationship with his son as platonic. But that's for an entirely different reason; one that would make you gasp from shock if you knew.
Tumblr media
After making Grandma’am Snow the happiest lady alive in Capitol City by accepting Coryo's proposal, you went to his bedroom to do homework with him. And when your class assignments were done, you two just laid on his bed while listening to music.
It was a new album that Coryo had to get the neighbor, Pluribus Bell, to smuggle to him because Crassus refused to give his son the money for the album. In fact the former General turned Minister of National Security, and black market arms dealer, hates the music you and his son listens to. Crassus is more of a classical music and soft jazz type, so he hates the poetic lyrics and the vibe of the beats of the alternative indie and pop you and Coryo enjoy so much.
The album was on its second playback while you cuddled into Coryo's side. His large, but lanky frame always made you feel so safe. So protected. And, your best friend's lanky, he does have solid muscles under his skin.
Having you tucked into his side while lying on his bed listening to the new album that an artist the both of you loves just dropped is like being in heaven for Coriolanus. Growing up the platinum blonde boy with a head full of soft curls and striking baby blue eyes always had you by his side. You're his one constant. No matter what, you're always there for him.
It's what makes Coryo crave you like Dean Casca Highbottom craves his morphling fix every 15 minutes. You always being there for him, being by his side for better or worse during your childhood friendship, is what caused him to grow obsessively in love with you.
But the problem is, in his delusional mind, Coriolanus thinks that you're in love with him too. All because of how you're always letting him cuddle you, hug you, and touch you. Letting him call you darling while you often call him ‘my Coryo' while talking about him to others also has him thinking that your feelings for him mirrors the ones he has for you.
You and Coryo are talking about small things, silly things really, whenever the bedroom door opens with a loud band followed by the deep bellowing of Crassus Snow. “Why're you two alone in here listening to this trash?”
“She's not a trashy singer, father. She's one of the best.” Coriolanus retorted, causing his imposing and stern father to fill his icy eyes at him. “Y/N and I were doing homework and decided to listen to some music afterwards.” Your best friend added in, to answer his father's stupid question about why you're in his room.
“General Snow, if me being alone in Coryo's room with him gets him in trouble with you then I'm sorry; I'll just go.” You apologized to the Snow patriarch while making to pull away from Coryo and sit up.
But your best friend wouldn't let you leave his side. No. Actually, his hold around you tightened.
And that made Crassus pissed. His sniveling brat of a son didn't deserve you. You deserved a real man to care for you; to guide you on your journey of womanhood.
Crassus felt that he's the Snow for you. The only man that can mold you into the perfect Capitolite lady you're meant to be. And when he successfully gets rid of old President Ravenstill and wins the next presidential election, well, he plans on making you his wife and his First Lady.
Whether you like it or not.
With a devious smirk painting his lips, the middle-aged man with slicked back platinum blonde hair and cold, hard, bitter icy eyes tells you, “Please, call me Crassus. After all, petal, with as much time as you spend here you're practically a part of the family.”
General Snow's remark went right over your head. You just nodded and simply said, “Okay.”
You honestly didn't think anything of it. If General Snow wanted you to call him Crassus because of all the time you spent around his son, Coriolanus, then so be it.
But Coryo knew that his father had just become, as fucked up as it sounds, his romantic rival for you. As soon as he heard him call you petal he knew, oh he just knew, that his father's lusting after you.
Coriolanus is his father's son after all. Despite being told time and time again by Crassus that he's too much like his mother, too soft and eager for affection- for love. But what Crassus didn't grasp was that Coriolanus didn't just have his father's looks, but his dark tendencies for obsession and over ‘loving’ his intended lover.
And the son just knew that his father was head over heels obsessed with you because, in fact, he was too. Coriolanus saw the way his father looked at you, as if you're a piece of meat ready to be carved and served, and it disgusts him. You belong to the younger Snow, not the older one.
Giving Crassus a cutting look with his icy eyes, Coriolanus announced in a smug baritone, “Father, my darling rose is going to prom with me as my date.” And then he twisted the knife in his father's black, soulless heart by adding in the three simple but damning words of, “As my girl.”
Crassus’ face turned to stone. Of course, you'd agree to go to prom with Coriolanus. The former general's seething with jealousy. He wants you, why does his son get to take you to prom? Ugh, why can't you just go to prom with a group of girls? Go stag, like single girls do. But no…
NO!
You just have to go to prom with Coriolanus. And as his girl too!
Crassus' blood is boiling in his veins. Hearing Coriolanus reveal that he’s made you his girl and is taking you to prom makes him want to tear his son apart limb by limb.
Well, he needs to nip that in the bud.
Perhaps he'll talk to his old, estranged friend Dean Casca Highbottom about being a chaperone at the prom. That way he can keep an eye on you, socialize with you, and keep you from spending the night dancing with his son.
Dancing at prom can lead to other things in hotel rooms after prom. Things that Crassus certainly doesn't want you doing with Coriolanus.
Although Crassus is having an internal meltdown, his appearance stays stern and calm. “I'll make sure your mother has enough money to take you dress shopping.” The middle-aged platinum blonde man assured you.
Cocking his head to the side, Crassus flashes you a savvy smile before looking at his son and giving him a look that rivaled that of Medusa herself. “This door stays open while you two are in here. Only one of you can be on the bed and the other must be at the desk.” Crassus instructed in a stern, authoritarian baritone. “And turn off this music. It's giving me a headache.” He adds in an ordering snap before pivoting on his heel and matching off.
Shaking his head, Coriolanus darkly chuckled, “My father's so pathetic. Having a crush on you.”
“He doesn't have a crush on me, Coryo.” You’re quick to tell your beat friend, writing off his remark as you break your contact with him by sitting up. “He's your father and he's old enough to be mine.” You remind Coryo while making to get off the bed.
Coryo stops you by reaching out and wrapping his hand around your arm. “Just stay on the bed with me. Father’ll never know.” He tells you as you look at him, worrying your lip. But after a few moments, you slowly nod your head and take up your spot nestled into his side once again. “And trust me, from the way he was looking at you, my father likes you.”
“I don't think he does, but if you say so…” You sigh, letting your sentence hang in the air.
But Coryo's right, his father does like you. He likes you a little too much. Just like how his son, your best friend, likes you a little too much.
The million dollar ticket is who’ll snag you up and make you theirs? That's a question only the ancient gods of old know and they're not sharing the answer until the time's right. But until then, father and son will be competing for your heart. A heart that you can only give to one Snow.

the first date!
a continuation of my ino has a crush on you post wc: 0.6k honorable mention: that special nonnie who motivated me to write this
Tumblr media
ino who waits patiently for your shift to end, seated at a small, corner table near the café’s counter. his outfit—a soft gray sweater and dark jeans—is casual yet thoughtful, a reflection of his nerves and excitement. he watches you with admiration, noting the way your smile brightens the room as you interact with customers. as the clock ticks closer to the end of your shift, he can barely contain his anticipation
ino who greets you with a wide, relieved smile as you finally clock out. he stands up, the bouquet of flowers he’s holding looking slightly wilted from his nervous grip. "hey, beautiful," he says, trying to keep his voice steady. "ready for our date?" he presents the bouquet with a shy smile. "i thought these might brighten your day after your long shift." "oh my god, thank you! they're so pretty." you reply, your smile genuine. you glance at the wrapped package in his hand. "and what’s this?"
ino who looks slightly flustered but quickly regains his composure. "oh, it’s just a little something i thought you might like," he says, looking away bashfully, placing the mystery gift in his bag. "but the real surprise is the location. follow me." he takes your hand and leads you to a charming rooftop garden tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city
ino who set up a cozy picnic in the garden, the area softly lit by fairy lights and adorned with comfy seating. as you both arrive, you see a table set with a spread of assorted pastries, fruits, and a bottle of sparkling cider. "i wanted to create a relaxing atmosphere since working at the cafe can get a bit hectic," ino says, nervously arranging the last few items. "i hope you like it." eyes sparkling with appreciation, the crinkle of the bouquet's packaging was heard as you set it down on the table. "like it? i love it! it’s incredible!"
ino who, as the evening progresses, grows more comfortable and opens up about his own interests. "i’ve always admired people who can get lost in a good book," he says, laughing softly. "i tried writing a short story once, but it ended up being a total disaster." you laugh along with him, taking a sip of your cider. "oh come on, i’m sure it wasn’t that bad. maybe one day you'll let me read it!" "maybe…"
ino who surprises you with a gift towards the end of the date. "i remember you mentioning your love for journaling," he says, pulling out the wrapped box from earlier. giving it to you, you tore off the wrappings, revealing a beautifully crafted book. "i thought this might be a nice place for you to jot down your thoughts or sketches." you take a moment to admire the journal’s intricate design before looking up at him, "you really didn't have to." "i wanted to."
ino who walks you back to your place, making sure you’re comfortable and safe. as you reach your front door, you turn around, "takuma," he looks at you with an unreadable expression. something between, nervousness, confusion, and anticipation. "i'll be planning our second date. let's say a week or two from now?" "what?" "second date. you. me. together."
ino who can’t help but grin widely. "YES! i mean, uh, awesome," he says, his excitement poorly contained. "i’ll be looking forward to it." "and so will i." inching closer to him, you gave takuma a quick peck on his cheek, squealing and running into your home immediately after. "goodnight!!!" "goodnight sweetheart…" he mutters, brain still processing everything. as he walks away, hand planted his cheek as if to protect the kiss you gave him, he reflects on the evening with a satisfied smile, already eagerly anticipating your next date
Tumblr media
I LOVE YOU INO TAKUMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Miku, Rin, Len, Luka:
No propaganda!
Jay, Cole, Kai, Zane:
"They're my friends, they've been a team for over 10 years now and I've been there that whole time :)"
"Why shouldn't they win? They're little gay skittles. Or they're brothers. You choose"
"JUMP UP KICK BACK WHIP AROUND AND SPIN (sorry i am very passionate about the legos but too tired to form like. real sentences. please imagine something written about how they're cool and fueled my childhood or something)"
"OK SO
They’re the OG members of the ninja team and shipping all four of them together is popular and is very gay it’s called polyninja and it’s amazing and let me break down the dynamics of each of them
Zane x Jay: Technoshipping
Robot x their mechanic trope goes brrrr. Zane is a logical and smart one, and Jay is chaotic and kinda a disaster. Zane is the autism to his adhd and they are very fun <3
Zane x Kai: Oppositeshipping
Ha ha opposites attract trope goes brrr. Again, Zane is logical and smart, whereas Kai is impulsive (and also smart just in a different way). Both of them feel emotions strongly but process them in different ways and I have to end it here before I write an essay about how ZANE was the one who with a single meaningful look and touch to the arm told him it was too late to go back, how Lloyd mentioned KAI to try and restore Zane’s memories when he had amnesia, how- (You get the picture)
Zane x Cole: Glaciershipping
Mom friend x Dad friend. I have realized that his is getting long so I am going to be much briefer now
Jay x Kai: Plasmashipping
Two adhd/add idiots being stupid together <3
Jay x Cole: Bruiseshipping
Best friends to lovers what more could you want (don’t start me on this one they have so much chemistry)
Kai x Cole: Lavashipping
I am bad at words for this one but just trust me they’re a Vibe ok they’re a Vibe
Zane x Jay x Kai x Cole: Polyninja
THEY ARE STUPID, GAY, AND IN LOVE, YOUR HONOR"

Why soft dom Aziraphale + bratty sub Crowley appeals to me
(be serious though they're both switches)*
Soft Dom Aziraphale
1. heaven
An angel is supposed to be the pure one, undefiled, meek, following orders without question, the girl to be got, the prize to be sought after, the white to be soiled. Subvert it! Aziraphale shouldn't be confined to an eternity of zero agency, naivety, and bland pastels. The idea of Aziraphale getting to really own his "bastard" side, getting to be "selfish," be demanding, be in control--delightful.
And, Aziraphale has guilt complexes on his guilt complexes. Because, unlike most of humanity, he is intimately aware of the righteous, pitiless violence that heaven is capable of. And he's made an art of subtly and ceaselessly defying it by being gentle, by demonstrating enormous restraint. He is a warrior who gave away his holy sword. He swerves severely in the direction of being reserved, harmless, feels clear guilt about any strong desires or direct asks. He has an obvious anxiety about excess (the mental acrobatics he does to justify his book collection, for example, are an entire circus). Free him from the fear of going too far!
2. the effeminate gay man
Thee Southern Pansy, "gay as a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide," with the fancy clothes and prim and proper aesthetic, ever the damsel in distress, flamboyant and limp-wristed, the one who is called slurs by children, the one who is sunshine and sweetness, "the nice one."
Except we know he is secretly a bastard! We know this bitch has preferences! Let him own that! The fact that he is effeminate should not automatically make him more submissive I literally hate that. On the inside Aziraphale is cunty and commanding and he should get to be!
3. with Crowley
Let him say what he craves directly so help me god! No double-speak, no games, no lustfully looking but then looking away immediately. Let him consume. Let him indulge in the gluttony he endlessly flirts with yet denies himself out of guilt and fear. The idea of Aziraphale as a gentle dom just seems so healing, like a puzzle piece that finally gets to click into place without shame.
-------------
Bratty Sub Crowley
1. hell
A demon is supposed to be the impure one, the defiler, the temptress, the seducer, the villain who takes, the black that soils. Subvert it! Crowley shouldn't be confined to the tropes of his demonic nature. He does not just take, just ruin. He is not inherently the one with experience while Aziraphale is the naive, pure little virgin. The idea of him being submissive to an angel (well...to this angel) is a delicious way to challenge that narrative.
And oh my god my girl has trust issues. As a demon his mentality is severely no allies, watch your back, the one who was cast out, rejected for a first offense, shaky ground, always in danger. He's not supposed to trust others, and he has legit biblically valid reasons to be wary and paranoid. Free him from the fear of trusting someone else to take control!
2. Mr. Cool
Mr. Bond, suave, smooth, stoic, sharp angles, stylish and slick, so very dangerous and criminal, the one with the car, the rebel, the snake. Compared with Aziraphale, he's supposed to be Mr. Hardass, "not nice."
Except we know he is secretly a disaster twink, 110% a soft sad little loser under that facade (and not buried that deep either)! He is a romantic who, in spite of hell, wants to give his angel chocolates! Let him own that!
3. with Aziraphale
Let him be unequivocally, unambiguously wanted oh my god! No guessing games! No trying to decipher what the fuck Aziraphale is really saying to him! Free him from the fear of always being "too fast" or "too late." All this bitch wants is for Aziraphale to be pleased by him, by Anthony J-acts-of-service Crowley! The idea of finally allowing him that...another puzzle piece. So satisfying and healing and safe.
-------------
*They're switches your honor
1. "our side"
Not heaven, not hell. Not angels or demons. Not all black or all white. If you think they don't switch, you're wrong.
2. weight & gender
Aziraphale is bigger and keeps his hair short and has a steadiness to him and all those things are perceived as more masculine by some and therefore stronger and more dominant. Fuck that! His size also is too often viewed as something unattractive, which--extremely fuck that. My boy is a treat and a catch. He should get to feel pretty and soft in a totally uncomplicated way as often as he goddamn wants.
Crowley is skinny, often has longer hair, has an absolute treasure hoard of gender, and there's a flightiness to him that's perceived as more feminine by some and therefore weaker and more submissive. Again I say fuck that! His slimness likewise is too often viewed as more desirable, more malleable and able to be cowed; to which I say: die! He is no dainty flower. He actually can often be commanding and capable. Take him seriously.
Furthermore: Aside from the obvious fact that weight, gender, and d/s all have jack shit to do with each other, subverting these tropes remains as important as subverting the other ones. Aziraphale should get to feel delicate and wanted just as much as Crowley. And Crowley should get to feel powerful and in control just as much as Aziraphale. To deny either of them those experiences...bad! Shut up!
3. Crowley & Aziraphale
Their dynamic is already basically gentle dom Aziraphale & bratty sub Crowley. Like literally inches below the surface lmao it's not that hard to spot (see: Az pouts about paint on his jacket, Crowley instantly rushes to fix it but in a cunty way; Crowley pins Az to a wall and Az isn't even slightly intimidated or out of control).
The problem is, they're not talking (see: Az can't ask directly; Crowley has to act tough). Which is why I personally feel that a more honest d/s dynamic, with all that unspoken ritual out in the open, would be an enormous relief for them.
That said, it's not fair to confine them to that familiar dynamic! Crowley isn't a sad wet rat all the time-- let him plan things and have them work out for once. Let him be (on purpose lol) successfully seductive! Likewise Aziraphale deserves to let his fucking hair down. Let my girl not have to do everything in this goddamn house! He deserves to not have to be the one in control all the time. He has trust issues just as deep as Crowley's, and equally deserves to feel safe and wanted.
Also Aziraphale is too much of a hedonist to not want to try everything. If you think he's sticking with one dynamic you are a fool. A clown. As my French-speaking 6,000 year old middle aged babygirl would say: an imbécile.
-------------
I wrote this for me, but if you read this far I hope you enjoyed it lol peace & love on planet earth

Blake and or weiss meet yang/rubys parents for the first time. Was thinking something similar to the goodnight kiss story, but do what you want lol. I ain't gonna force you to do anything.
Hey, @chaosbloot! I think I got something for this.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Goodnight Kiss in Vacuo pt. 2
Shade Academy
Blake: (tossing and turning in bed) Can't sleep... (glances at the door to the bedroom and bites her lip as she watches shadows pass underneath the door) No. No. It's too soon for that. We didn't even technically share a bed at Jaune's house in the Ever After.
Yang: (muffled laughter on the other side of the door along with two other voices)
Blake: But it was nice being so close.... (remembers the warm, floaty feeling she got from sleeping within close proximity to Yang)
Blake's Heart: (butterflies and warmth and floaty feeling with warm fuzzies) Go get our girl already!!!
Blake: Okay. Okay. Okay. I'll go ask. (Takes a deep breath and peeks out the door into the little dormatory common room)
Yang: (wheezing with laughter) No way! Qrow, you never told us that you wore the school skirt for a week when you were a student!
Qrow: Your dad told me it was a kilt!
Raven: Don't put all the blame on Tai, Qrow. Summer played along with it.
Qrow: You're just mad that my legs looked better than yours in that skirt.
Raven: Hardly the case now. I don't think those pasty white legs of yours have seen the light of day since then.
Yang: (laughing so hard she's crying silently and goes to wipe a tear when she notices Blake standing in the doorway) Hey, babe! Sorry, are we keeping you up?
Blake: Oh! No. Not at all. I just noticed that it was getting late and you hadn't come- GONE! Hadn't gone... to bed.
Raven & Qrow: (arch an eyebrow with a smirk at the slip and glance at each other)
Yang: (oblivious) I'll go to bed here in a minute. I was catching up with Qrow and hearing how Raven came around to help.
Raven: (gives Qrow a look of: "Can you believe this kid?")
Qrow: (exchanges with a look of: "She has Tai's obliviousness and your romance disasterdom. What do you expect?")
Raven: (rolls her eyes and stares pointedly at Blake) Hey, if you want to sleep with Yang, you're better off asking her directly instead of beating around the bush.
Blake: (blushes and steam billows out of her ears)
Yang: (blushes and sits ramrod straight) U-Uh... Blake?
Blake: Yes!
Yang: Did you... want to share a bed?
Blake: (ears flicker as her eyes flit between everyone in the room) I... wouldn't be opposed....
Qrow: Do you want to sleep with my niece or not?
Blake: Not like that!!! (Balks) Not yet anyway!!! (Gags at her words) I MEAN!!! YES!!! I would like to share a bed with Yang! (Turns to Yang) When are you coming to bed?!
Yang: (a flustered and blushing mess) I'll be there in five minutes!
Blake: Okay!
Yang: Okay!
Blake: I love you!
Yang: I love you too!
Blake: (stomps over to Yang in embarrassment, kisses her cheek, and sprints back into her bedroom)
Yang: (eyes flicking between red and lilac from embarrassment)
Raven: You were right. I do like her. I was a little worried after spying around post fall of Beacon.
Qrow: Told you. (Drinks his decaf coffee) Better get going, Firecracker. Your lady awaits.
Yang: (stammers and sputters) Right! Uh! Goodnight! (Trips over the chair as she rushes to the bedroom)
Raven: (sips her tea after the door slams closed) I give them six months before they're talking about marriage.
Qrow: I'll see your six months and put my money on our little Firecracker asking.
Raven: Please. That little shadow is clearly a woman who knows what she wants. My money is on the Faunus.

I need your Sampard headcanons, if you have none that’s cool ignore this ask, BUT IF YOU DO LEGALLY YOU HAVE TO SHARE THEM
anon- i don't think you know what you've signed up for with this ask
my headcanons are all incomprehensible to myself so o7
this is brain rot at its full saturation..........
gepard being honest to a fault and that flustering tf out of sampo..., , , , 🥺
like,, sampo will jokingly make a silly comment about gepard liking him and gepard will respond with something like "of course i do? why wouldn't i??"
it's a constant cycle: sampo joking -> gepard responding honestly -> sampo getting flustered -> it hits gepard after some confusion that it was in fact a joke -> and they're both useless and flustered together, absolute losers <3 -> repeat
anyone being genuine and nice to sampo would destroy him
he'd crumble
like- he'd collapse like a house of cards in a gust of wind
they're both touch starved and clingy but really awkward about it
"i need to cuddle so bad!! but i would sooner die than be the one to suggest it!!!!!!"
they get over it once they realize it's a mutual feeling
then it's just collapsing on eachother whenever
i kinda just want them to cry and have a breakdown together, cry and hug it out and just like talk
they both need a good cry,,, 🙏
gepard. yotasuke takahashi. just saying things that sound so romantic without so much as a glance at the other person,,, like:
Tumblr media
sampo asks serval to please talk to her brother about thinking before speaking, she leaves him on read
idk what to tell you, they're just losers
they're that "relationships should be 50/50, he cooks us dinner and i sit on the kitchen counter and look pretty" post
sampo entering the kitchen: what's cookin', good-lookin'
sampo gets gepard one of those "kiss the cook" aprons
they're the kind of couple where they're seeing eachother through a shoujo romance lens but to outsiders they're just so unbelievably unbearable
can't flirt to save their lives.
i really just imagine them to be the biggest losers together, they're made for eachother, they're pathetic, they're disasters
them:
Tumblr media
gepard runs cold!! sampo can't stand it!!!
who's the big spoon and little spoon? yes
pet names? pet names.
sampo uses them obnoxiously and calls gepard everything he can come up with
darling, babe, baby, sweetie, cutie pie, angel, my little captain, hotstuff, handsome, my one and only, knight in shining armor, prince,,, etc
gepard just defaults to calling him honey or something
gepard names one of his plants koski
sampo is very honored
but also so worried, considering gepard's track record with the lifespan of his plants
he makes it his mission to keep koski alive
sampo loves pulling on gepard's cheeks

A Wolf and A Snake (Wriothesley x Reader)
Letters' Interlude - 2
Warnings: Yandere themes, a bit graphic in the second letter.
Taglist: @yue-caelum @reyy-chanx @mis-disaster
Tumblr media
From: Duke Wriothesley of Meropide - Fortress of Meropide, Liffey Region, Fontaine
To: Baron E. Balthazar - Balthazar Manor, Court Region, Fontaine
To the most esteemed Baron Balthazar,
I feel honored for the chance to be able to write this letter, even more so if you're reading it now. I'm sure you know why I am doing so by now, with your daughter's social success and coming-of-age as a fine young woman.
While I wasn't born a Duke, I have been one for a while. I saw quite a few virtuous young ladies, but young Lady Balthazar shines in the depth of her knowledge, culture, and trueness. As a noble, I'm sure you know how dull our conversational space can be; Everyone is well-educated and knows much of culture, but it often hits a ceiling where that ends. I would argue that they're all repositories of goodness with a cap. But Lady Balthazar is no house or repository with limits; She's a never-ending well of virtue, one that goes beyond instruction and basic fact. Each time I thought I saw it all with her, she amazed me with a new level of tact, kindness, or wisdom. She has certainly been blessed to have you provide such great education, but I must say you are also fortunate for Celestia to give you a daughter with her own penchant for continuously seeking virtues as a noble and as a person. I think that is what sealed the deal in my love for her.
I'm certain many nobles will liken her to doves or flowers. I would like to be honest about my feelings, even if I deviate. In that one night, I felt that Lady Balthazar is much that I love; She's my favorite type of dark chocolate. She's unearthed tomes holding the secrets to Spantamad's unresolved questions of ice and thunder. She's the soft operatic melody that rings out in sole nights not for human fame or money, but an impetuous desire to be heard by the stars. Her laughter's is Mondstadt's festival winds. Her steps are Liyue's clinking of good charms. Her speech is my cup of tea reflecting the full moon upon which I was born. Even beyond the borders of Fontaine, where I spent most of my life, Lady Balthazar spans upon my entire world and I'll never lead a joyful life if I have only experienced this once.
Obviously, a presence as electrifying as hers only deserves the best. I myself have long wanted a wife, so I made sure that by the time one made me as lovestruck as your daughter, I can be the best husband possible within my arsenal. When I became responsible of the Fortress, I made sure I used my power to assure Fontaine would be a place of safety and fairness. I want to wonder our beautiful avenues with her by my side, while she enjoys herself, free of any fears of danger. In a way, I feel that much of what I do is for the citizens I love, and the first on that list is your daughter.
I thank you for your time and attention, as well as the grace you granted me to meet the loveliest of ladies.
With all my regards,
Duke Wriothesley.
----------------------------------------------------------------
From: Duke Wriothesley of Meropide - Fortress of Meropide, Liffey Region, Fontaine
To: Lady Y/N Balthazar - Balthazar Manor, Court Region, Fontaine
To my beloved, deserving of happiness alone,
I'm hoping that the appearance of Frosty cheered you up a little, especially after tonight. Deep down, I knew your father would try to use my being a wolf hybrid as a weapon against me. He's not the first, and certainly won't be the last.
I spent the last few hours praying to Focalors that something, anything good could happen before Frosty and lift your spirits a bit. Ever since I became infatuated with you, I felt like you're mine. Your emotional extremes - both positive and negative - have become mine as well. Even if I didn't cry, your tears were mine, too. And that is part of loving a person, whole, which I believe that in its tragedy, holds something beautiful. In you being mine, you'll never have to face another storm alone. You'll never have to stare down the uglier part of life with your hands shaking, begging to hold another and stay with you in the midst of that chaos.
Learn this well if you wish to know your real lover (that self-righteous Archandelle idiot is not it, even if your father says otherwise); Throughout my life, as a prisoner and as a warden, I have handled humanity's scum. Many nights I thought: "There can't be people worse than what I have just imprisoned.", then came another bastard to astonish me. Over time, I grew jaded about it until last night, when you poured your heart out to me. The lifer criminals I have, in my eyes, could never hold a candle of cruelty that he who made you cry has.
Your tears are the greatest injustice I've witnessed. Your sorrow (especially when you didn't ask for it) is the most urgent of tragedies to remediate. So I swear upon my honor and love, I will end it. I will run, fight, bribe, corrupt, maim or kill whoever dares to trespass upon our happiness, our coupling, our fate to be together forever. Many of our Archons have decreed it: "Whoever stops fate from running its course will see great punishment.". Except here, this punishment will come in the ice beast that they feared, who will roar at them but only ever purr for you.
Please hold on and be assured that you will not belong to that idiot, or that bastard you call a father. Keep in mind that my anger towards him is not yours at all. You didn't ask to be born to him, you did nothing wrong. On the contrary, he saw the gem that was his daughter, and yet decided to make her unhappy. With time and my own plans (That you will be made aware of soon. A bit radical, but will guarantee our ending up together), you will belong to the one you should belong to. Until then, let's keep each other in the loop of what is going on.
You will belong to me,
Duke Wriothesley.

Peter and Harry are so much dude they're so much. They are mirrors and polar opposites. They come from completely different backgrounds, have completely different personality traits to the point of practically being inversions of one another, yet they're haunted by fundamentally similar self doubts. They both see themselves as burdens to everyone they love yet they've both never let go of anything in their entire lives. They're simultaneously each others perfect match and a setup for disaster. They could live in the picturesque domestic bliss they've both consistently been shown to wish for, or they could tear each other to pieces. Peter is everything Harry wants as well as everything Harry desperately envies. He respects and admires Harry in ways his father never could, yet shares some of Norman's worst traits. They're obsessed with each other for better or for worse. Regardless of what form the tension between them takes at any given moment, they're attracted to each other like magnets and can't leave each other's orbit for good. What can I say your honor. They're narrative foils and they need to fuck nasty about it

Heya ABL !! Hope you're having a nice day .
So I recently started watching Laws Of Attraction and ngl Mr. Charn's smile is one of the most terrifying smiles I have ever seen in all of the media I've consumed throughout my life . He's the kind of person I won't fuck with. Ever . And that brings me to the question I have for you . I'm curious to know, who are some of the characters in BL you'd absolutely NOT fuck with irl?
Characters in BL I would NOT fuck with IRL
OMG I love the question, but I have a ton of answers, a busy work day, and tumblr keeps eating my posts so I'm gonna be super rough with this one.
Tumblr media
Criteria
Generally the red flags I avoid are:
broken beyond repair,
unpredictably unhinged (elbows everywhere),
just too angry,
stalker
looking for salvation (AKA deal with your own damn problems)
AKA baby, you aren't smart enough to be worth the drama.
Ready? Here we go.
The "You Legit Unhinged" Bracket
Charn in Laws of Attraction
Currently my favorite character by a land slide he's evil, manipulative, bonkers, and damaged. RUN AWAY.
Devil Judge goes in here too. Not BL but... The "censored off my lists" Chinese historical BLs have tons of these characters.
Tumblr media
The "baby is WAY too extra" bracket
Aoki in Kieta Hatsukoi
No thank you. I like my life peaceful. Sweetie, you cute but CALM TF DOWN.
I'd put quite a few other disaster ukes outta Japan in here, the kids of Mr Unlucky, Senpai, etc...
Tumblr media
The "your damage is on the outside" bracket.
The men of My Beautiful Man
Yeah, neither of them. BOYS. I mean to say... BOYS. You are way way WAY too much work.
I'm coming around to putting both Weatherman boys into this bracket too, and what's his bucket from the Pornographer series. Oh and Takumi! Ugh.
Tumblr media
The "a boyfriend is not a therapist" bracket
I couldn't pick a winner for this bracket so here's my list:
My Tooth Your Love's Bai Lang
Uea in Bed Friend
What's his name from The Eighth Sense (probably quite a few other Korean BLs, actually)
Fiat in Don't Say No et al
Team in Between Us
Sky in LITA
Tumblr media
Anger management issues
Semes in: Love Syndrome III and Dinosaur Love
and Type in TharnType
Tumblr media
Stalkers need not apply
Secret Crush on You
Be Mine Super Star
Love Mate
Currently airing stalker pulp thingy.
There are more. A lot more.
Tumblr media
You're not romantic, you're just a jerk
and probably should be in prison
Tharn from TharnType (could have gone into the first bracket too)
Bohn in My Engineer
Pai in LITA (bite me)
Pure in My Gear Your Gown
Some of these may surprise you because they're some of my favorite characters. But just because I like them on the screen doesn't mean I want them in my life.
I left the Japanese dark BL off this list for the usual reasons.
Honorable mention:
Tumblr media
