how do you feel about bratfeen??
I like them!
Though there aren’t any canon interactions (that i know of..?) to go off of, I imagine they’ve got a volatile dynamic, which i find fun and full of potential. Taking a moment to Recall Them As They Are:
Edgeworth is probably at the top of his cunt game. This man is fresh off 10+ years of Von Karma’s teachings and certain he’s hot shit. Also he’s fucking 20. So. Repressed, stuffed full of twisted dogmas, sporting a fucked up ego, and equipped with an unhealthy conviction and ability to send wrongdoers directly into the fires of hell. He is an Experience and most probably not a good one, but one you will never forget.
>Enter Player 2: Phoenix f*cking Wright, also a bitch, but WORSE- he is a bitch BABY. No, he’s not a child or a sweet little baby boy. His emotions are still on full display while also being just about the most stubborn fucker you could ever meet. If Dahlia- DAHLIA -couldn’t gasboss gatelight girlkeep a goddamn necklace off his neck, then there is no hope for the rest of us. He saw a picture of Edgeworth at his Peak Cuntliness and a headline accurately describing said cuntitude and more or less said “I can fix him anyway”.
So basically to me they have the delightful dynamic of immovable object vs unstoppable force. I want to see them clash and cause comical chemistry lab explosions that singe their eyebrows and come out of it furiously making out.
#that said seeing Edgeworth concede to Phoenix’s love is honestly one of my favorite Them things ever#Like YES! wear him down! get loved you asshole!! LET HIM LOVE YOU!!!! HAHAHA#This ought to be a ‘huh? I want Edgeworth to be loved?’ moments but actually no i just want to see him flustered#ruffling Edgeworth’s feathers is one of his BEST features so as you can imagine Bratworth is the most satisfying form of that#asks#anonymous#bratfeen

[CN] Li Zeyan’s 2024 Birthday: Former Times Date (Eng Translation)
“Perhaps, from the moment we met eighteen years ago, fate had already quietly written our today.”
“Li Zeyan, it was your appearance that made me start to believe in the existence of fate.”
⌚Warning⌚ This post contains detailed spoilers for a date, 昔年约会, that is yet to be released on the global server! ♡
•─────⋅◍♡◍⋅─────•
【Subbed Video】
youtube
──────────────────
【Prologue】
As soon as I arrive at the main entrance of the Riverside Plaza, I notice a woman in professional attire walking towards me with quick steps.
??: Miss MC, hello. I’m Wang Yi from the Publicity Department of the City Hall.
MC: Hello, Miss Wang.
After shaking hands with each other, I take out a pre-signed agreement document from my tote bag and hand it to her.
MC: I’ve already signed the temporary usage agreement for Riverside Plaza’s venue. Please have a look.
She efficiently flips to the last page, confirms the signatures, and hands me a temporary access ID card along with a map of Riverside Plaza.
Wang Yi: I’ve already taken care of informing everyone involved and have reserved the time you’ll be needing.
Wang Yi: On January 13th, there won’t be anyone bothering you here, except for the patrol staff.
MC: Really, thank you guys so much.
Wang Yi: No worries. Director Chen mentioned you have very important memories here… and besides, you are the main person in charge of the promotional video for Riverside Plaza.
Wang Yi: In terms of both emotions and reason, this little help is nothing.
It’s not until I watch her departing into the distance that I begin to earnestly take in the recently completed Riverside Plaza before me––
The use of minimalist lines sketches out several strikingly modern structures, while in the not-so-distant surroundings, an artificial mountain rises, cloaking everything in front of me in lush greenery.
Such a strong contrast momentarily makes me forget what the park where I first met Li Zeyan looked like.
MC: I wonder what his reaction will be when he sees the drastic transformation here.
Saying this, I lower my head to look at the bag full of birthday gifts I’ve brought, and a smile slowly spreads across my face.
MC: But no matter what, Li Zeyan, I’ll definitely make you happy~
Just as these words leave my mouth, my phone in my pocket suddenly rings. I take it out, only to see the familiar avatar unmistakably displayed on the screen.
Smiling, I answer the call and start speaking even before he can say anything.
MC: Hehe, I was just thinking about you, and here you are calling. What’s up~?
LZY: A certain dummy hasn’t made a peep all day, and I’m a little not used to such quietness. What are you up to?
MC: Ah~ Turns out someone was missing me.
Grinning, I sling the “gift bag” over my shoulder and head inside, chatting as I walk.
MC: Me?... I’m preparing a birthday surprise for you right now~
The voice on the other end of the line clearly freezes for a moment, followed by soft laughter.
LZY: How come you’re not keeping me in suspense this year?
MC: Because your birthday happens to be on the weekend this year.
MC: Since we don’t have anything else in our itinerary, you must know that I’m planning a surprise for you!
MC: So, there is no point in keeping you in suspense. I just need to work hard to not fall short of your expectations~
My eyes crinkle into a smile, and I halt in my steps. Then, I take out one of the gift boxes and place it under the bench in front of me.
Just as I’m mulling over where to hide the remaining gift boxes, Li Zeyan’s voice sounds once again, his tone neither too soft nor too heavy.
In the winter breeze, this voice inexplicably brings me a touch of warmth––
LZY: Dummy, you don’t need to work so hard.
LZY: As long as you’re around on that day, it doesn’t matter where we go or what we do.
LZY: Because the most important thing has been by my side for a long time now.

【Chapter 1】
MC: Happy Birthday!!
Early in the morning, the second I hear the sound of movement coming from the bedroom, I immediately burst in, carrying the cake with Pudding accompanying me.
Li Zeyan, who has risen from the blanket, watches us as we shower rose petals on him, his eyes widening slightly.
After processing the situation, he laughs somewhat helplessly.
LZY: A certain someone disappeared early in the morning; turns out she was preparing a surprise.
MC: Judging by the birthday star’s expression, bet you must have been shocked by my surprise, huh~
Hearing this, a glint of teasing surfaces in his eyes.
LZY: Indeed, you did give me a good scare.
LZY: I even thought someone was “breaking in.” [1]
MC: Well, I’m certainly gonna hijack all your unhappiness today!
He smiles and pulls my randomly flailing arm, hugging me to his side. Then, he glances down at the cake in my hands.
LZY: Looks like my stomach has already been hijacked by you first.
LZY: You squealed me out of bed at twelve a.m. for a bowl of longevity noodles, and now you want me to eat cake?
MC: These are all my blessings~
At this moment, Pudding suddenly reaches out his paw, lightly smearing a bit of cream on Li Zeyan’s face.
Seeing him momentarily frozen, I can’t hold back and burst into laughter.
MC: Haha, our Pudding is also wishing you a happy birthday~
LZY: After being with you for so long, even he has become more childish.
MC: It’s only natural for a family to become more and more alike~
He nods contemplatively. Then, he bends down and gently nuzzles against me, leaving a cool sensation on my face.
MC: Whoa! Why did you pull a sneak attack on me?
LZY: You said it yourself – it’s only natural for a family to become more and more alike.
Even though his tone is composed, a twinkle of amusement betrays his eyes. The overlapping laughter and soft cream melts and spreads in the sweet-scented air.
After washing up, he slices a piece from the cake and doesn’t forget to put the reddest strawberry in my mouth.
LZY: Your blessing tastes good.
LZY: So, what’s your plan for taking me to do later?
Smiling, I wink at him.
MC: Haven’t you heard? The construction of the Riverside Plaza is already complete~
–
───── [FLASHBACK STARTS] ─────
MC: The next time we come here, it will be called “Riverside Plaza.”
Ten months ago, the park where Li Zeyan and I first met when we were kids was slated for redevelopment by the city hall and was soon to be incorporated into a large urban public space – “Riverside Landscape.”
Before the construction began, we returned there once again after several years.
The park, dust-laden in memories, had remained almost unchanged in its original appearance. It beckoned to us from across the long years.
MC: Though, don’t you think the park seems to have gotten a bit smaller…
Holding Li Zeyan’s hand, I repeatedly measured the size of the sandbox with our footsteps and couldn’t help but feel a sense of incredulity.
MC: I can’t believe it only takes a dozen steps to make a circle now. I remember how I could play the whole afternoon in the past.
LZY: It indicates that a certain dummy has been particularly engrossed in playing this game since childhood.
MC: Well, you’d still be next to me and watch me play~
MC: Speaking of which, thankfully, this little me had big dreams.
MC: That’s how I could become your one and only best friend among so many kids in the entire park!
Hearing my exaggerated tone, he seemed unable to hold back a small laugh.
LZY: That’s your standard for a “big dream?”
MC: Of course! Zeyan gege was so cool back then, and he never seemed to rashly make friends with others. [2]
MC: Mm-hmph, but if I had known you were a kid without dreams, I might not have played with you!
LZY: …who said I didn’t have dreams when I was a kid?
The next second, seeing me immediately cast a curious gaze his way, he seemed to stop talking somewhat regretfully.
I kept swinging his hand, adopting an expression that vowed not to give up until I heard the answer. After waiting for quite a while, I finally got a soft sigh of compromise from him.
LZY: You can listen, but you have to hear the premise too. It was just a casual remark I made when I was little, not exactly a serious dream.
MC: So, you were playing coy earlier. But if CEO Li doesn’t say it today, he won’t be adorable anymore! Tell me, tell me~
LZY: …Pianist.
My eyes widen for a moment, picturing Li Zeyan playing the piano, and I can’t control my eyes crinkling as I smile.
MC: Hahaha, even CEO Li had such a whimsical dream!
LZY: [extremely helpless laugh] I told you, it was just something I said without much thought when I was a kid.
MC: But when I imagine how you’d look in a tailcoat, it does quite suit your temperament.
MC: So, when we return home today, will I be fortunate enough to hear the playing of the Grand Pianist Li?~
LZY: Nope.
MC: Oh, c’mon, just play it casually; even just putting on a show would be fine too.
LZY: [helplessly amused tone] Your current dream is not small at all, I must say.
Our light-hearted, trivial laughter and chatter scattered throughout the park, and in a trance, we brushed past our childhood memories.
We strolled aimlessly, and when the curtain of twilight fell, neither of us uttered a word about leaving.
It wasn’t until we saw the construction vehicles approaching from a distance that we tacitly cast our gaze for one last time at this piece of land.
MC: I wonder what this little park will turn into the next time we see it?
LZY: If you’re curious, let’s come and check it out together once it’s completed.
His voice was soft, but he spoke with sincerity.
LZY: In any case, its finest appearance has already been preserved in the passage of time.
───── [FLASHBACK ENDS] ─────
───────
[Tidbits]:
[1] It’s a small nod to his 2nd birthday date, where MC “broke into his house” to surprise him LOL, though this time it wasn’t necessary b/c she lives here haha~
[2] don’t think I need to again; still just a reminder– MC used to address Li Zeyan as “Zeyan gege” when they were kids. For those unaware, when a Chinese girl addresses a boy as gēge (an intimate term of address), if not used to address her own older brother, she’d use it to address her boyfriend~ and the reason it got both Victor and MC flustered the first time they reminisced in Preference SP~ It’s similar to how oppa (in KR) and onii-chan (in JP) works in cases like this haha~ (//∇//)

【Chapter 2】
In the damp winter haze of the south, two interconnected artificial mountain ranges embrace the brand-new Riverside Plaza.
The lines of modern architecture in the square appear to escape from the shackles of steel and concrete, blending seamlessly with the natural landscape.
I take a satisfying deep breath, allowing the fresh air to instantly fill my nostrils.
MC: Looks so much more beautiful than before.
LZY: The concepts for this renovation are very new, and the execution on the ground is pretty commendable.
LZY: But I recall that this place will only be open to the public around mid-year.
MC: Yeah, you’re right. But it’s your birthday today, so it’s perfectly normal for magical things to happen~
Seeing my wink that hints at my intention to keep it a secret to the end, he helplessly raises his eyebrows.
LZY: A certain someone seems to be leveraging her personal connections for me a lot recently.
MC: If it weren’t for CEO Li’s help along the way, I wouldn’t even have the small network I’ve built up today.
MC: “Always think of its source when you drink water”-- it’s but a fundamental principle in life.
LZY: [laughs softly] Does your fundamental principle also include sweet talk?
MC: This is called the use of some rhetorical devices to convey a heartfelt expression. Every word of mine is sincere~
Amidst the laughter and chatter, as we approach the place where I had placed a gift in advance, even my footsteps gain a little excited spring.
–
3… 2… 1 –– I silently count as I lead him around the corner, and a delicate gift box appears on a bench not too far away.
I discreetly sneak a glance at the person next to me and see that he seems to be in a daze for a moment. Soon after, he quickly catches on, and a smile of realization spills out from the corners of his lips.
LZY: Looks like a certain someone has already been here in advance.
MC: After all, this place holds very special meaning for us. But more importantly, it’s your birthday today~
MC: Since we have the opportunity to acquaint ourselves with it once again, I want to create some new memories that belong to us~
With the expectation in my gaze, he opens the gift box–– inside is a bottle of wine labeled with the year he was born.
MC: Hehe, your first gift is a red wine meticulously selected by MC~ It’s the best-tasting one I selected among many wines!
LZY: Does a certain someone’s idea of the best taste mean it’s “very sweet?” [3]
MC: Huh? How did you know…
A barely imperceptible curve graces the corners of his lips, though he doesn’t reply to my question.
LZY: So, did you just say this is the first gift?
It’s only now that I remember something, and, akin to presenting a treasure, I pull out a gift map.
MC: That’s right~ There are still nine more gifts scattered in the streets, waiting for their owner to bring them home.
LZY: You’ve prepared ten gifts for a single birthday? [4]
MC: Uh-huh. After all, my feelings outweigh these gifts by far, but at the very least, the figure gives a hint, right~
Seeing me use my hands and feet to gesture exaggeratedly, he laughs in spite of himself and takes hold of my hand.
LZY: [gives a precious laugh] Well, let’s hurry up then. I don’t want a certain dummy’s feelings that are lying scattered to wait for too long.
–
MC: Jeez…
As I watch him retrieve the final gift box straight from the ice cream parlor, my eyes widen in astonishment.
MC: How did you do that?
LZY: It’s not difficult to guess a dummy’s thoughts.
Noticing a glint of complacency flicker in his eyes, I pout a little, unwilling to resign myself.
MC: If you’re really that good, then take a guess at what’s inside the gift box?
LZY: What if I guess correctly?
MC: In that case, you can put forward any conditions you please~
He lowers his eyes to the gift box, and soon, a hint of interest curls at the corners of his lips. Watching him muttering to himself irresolutely, I swiftly regain my complacency.
MC: I knew it! How could you possibly guess~
LZY: Is it a flipbook comic?
MC: …!
I find myself rooted to the spot in incredulity, falling into serious contemplation.
MC: Seriously? I drew this at the store, so there’s no way I could have accidentally filled in the wrong recipient’s phone number…
MC: And, I intentionally didn’t bring it home… so, there’s no chance you could have seen it beforehand!
MC: Weird, how on earth did you figure it out?
He gives me a playful look, then turns the side of the gift box towards me.
A label reading “Hand-drawn Flipbook Comic” is prominently affixed on it.
MC: …how could you cheat!
LZY: You said it yourself–– the birthday star has the final say today.
He laughs candidly, opens the gift box, and takes out the comic book.
As he slowly turns the pages, the changing sequence of images gradually brings a story to life.
The soccer ball that came flying knocked down the sandcastle. Faced with the girl’s loud sobs, the boy was flustered and at a loss for what to do. Finally, he quelled her tears with a pudding.
Probably because the girl always had something to say, and the boy was always willing to listen–– as a matter of course, the two naturally became playmates.
Seeing that an unforeseen accident took place and caused the two to lose contact, Li Zeyan slows down his pace of flipping the pages.
During that prolonged separation, the girl, just like him, grew up well in her own world.
When his fingertips turns the final page, a sunshower drizzles down without warning, bearing witness to their reunion on the sidewalk of fate. [5]
With yearning, his gaze lingers on the page for a long, long time, as if he is looking back to that day through the paper.
MC: It’s a bit of a pity; this was already the thickest book in the store. I originally wanted to continue drawing more into the future.
He looks at me, his gaze deep.
LZY: We already know how the story unfolded after that.
LZY: As for the story that will unfold in the days to come, we will know that, too, as time goes on.
──────────────
[Tidbits]:
[3] It’s a nod to a term MC often uses for Li Zeyan– “世界第一甜李泽言” (world's sweetest Li Zeyan) and the nickname CN fans have for him 李甜甜 (Sweet Li); which is also discussed in the call for this date that she wanted to choose a wine that fits him the best and apparently drunk texted in the process LOL.
[4] Guess all Li Zeyan stans know the significance of the number “10” ahah the source of all angst, but in the light of this date, it’s also a nod to Li Zeyan’s age when he and MC first met.
[5] Likely not necessary LOL, but a refresher anyway — it’s the reference to S1 CH 1, the impending car crash and their fated reunion ahah— ༼;´༎ຶ ༎ຶ༽

【Chapter 3】
MC: I hereby declare that the gift-finding mission is a complete success!
Watching me dancing for joy and ticking off the last empty space on the list, Li Zeyan can’t help but break into laughter.
LZY: Obviously, I’m the one who received the gifts, but you seem even happier than me.
MC: Because once again, your reunion with this land has been branded with my mark!
MC: No matter how that little park’s appearance may change, whenever this place crosses your mind, you will always think of me!
LZY: [laughs helplessly] Dummy, thinking of you has never had anything to do with time or place.
The next second, as if a realization has struck him, he lifts his gaze to meet mine.
LZY: But how come you didn’t place any of the gifts in that little park?
I scratch my head and unfold the map of Riverside Plaza to show him.
MC: With the artificial mountains they’ve built along with so many public structures, the topography here has changed dramatically.
MC: I couldn’t figure out the location of the little park…
MC: Perhaps it was leveled to the ground, or it might have become a part of the mountains, or maybe we’ve just passed right through it.
As he listens to my conscientious conjectures, a soft chuckle escapes from the corner of Li Zeyan’s lips.
LZY: As expected, you dummy.
—
MC: Does the venue usage agreement also include riding the cable car…
As the cable car slowly ascends, I flip through the thick agreement in surprise.
But before I can find the relevant clauses, my eyes are captivated by the gradually unfolding panorama of Riverside Plaza.
Emerald water and azure stones breathe in and out the refreshing breeze, embracing modern architecture and blending into a highly artistic urban landscape.
MC: It seems like the blessing of the birthday star’s halo really makes things magical, huh?
MC: Then, if I get closer to you, perhaps I can catch some of your magical aura.
As I speak, I snuggle even closer to him, crashing into his gaze fixed on me.
LZY: Even if the halo does exist, it wouldn’t spread through such childish methods.
MC: Well, you never know, and you––
The next second, he leans down and silences my unfinished words with a kiss.
LZY: [in an adorably serious tone] The success rate should be higher with this method.
Seeing him making jokes in a deadly earnest tone, I can’t help but burst into laughter.
LZY: If a certain dummy keeps giggling, she might miss the place she’s been yearning for.
MC: Huh?
Seeing him lift his chin slightly, I look perplexedly to the left side of the cable car.
In the next second, I spot the small park within the construction enclosure of the Urban Construction Group.
The sense of familiarity hits me right in the face, leaving me astounded and frozen in place.
MC: I can’t believe it’s still here… is it that they haven’t gotten to renovating this area yet?
LZY: Take a closer look.
With my eyes, I trace over the landscape before me, overlaying it with the images in my memory.
The old soccer field from the past has now taken a brand new appearance, incorporating the previous open space and expanding to at least twice its original size.
Meanwhile, the small sandbox seems to have become the best viewing area to watch the game, nestled inseparably against the edge of the soccer field.
MC: It… has been preserved?
LZY: Mm.
LZY: In the future, whenever you want to visit, it will always be here.
All my uncertainties vanish into thin air, and even the excitement turns into a sense of reassurance.
The unexpected surprise makes it impossible for me to resist turning my gaze toward that small area; I can’t seem to get enough of it no matter how many times I look.
The cable car ascends a bit more, and on the construction barrier previously obscured by tree shadows, an inverted triangle symbol that I couldn’t be more familiar with comes into view.
MC: Huh? Isn’t that the logo of LFG?
In my bewildered gaze, he nods.
LZY: I mentioned to you before about the collaboration between LFG and Urban Construction, and this is the project.
MC: So, you are the one who preserved it?
LZY: I was indeed involved in the decision-making process.
LZY: However, the redevelopment plan originally called for a youth activity area, so we retained the outdoor park and added more activity spaces.
I nod thoughtfully, but as I look at the small sandbox, I can’t shake the impression that it doesn’t really fit in with the surroundings.
Seeming to notice my trance, he speaks first.
LZY: [extremely softly] My selfish desire did indeed take part in this.
LZY: Since the soccer field was already being preserved, there was no reason why the sandbox shouldn’t be preserved as well.
MC: Even if it doesn’t quite fit the planning requirements?
He gently lowers his eyes, remaining silent, but the upward curve at the corner of his lips seems to have long declared the answer.
Partiality towards someone that causes a person to break the rules is always a source of joy, and I am no exception.
It’s just that being loved can subtly give rise to greed, making it impossible to resist the temptation to seek more confirmation from him.
MC: But… didn’t you say before letting it be preserved in the passage of time is enough?
The moment my probing gaze meets the light in his eyes, everything is laid bare in his knowing smile.
LZY: Even now, I still believe that time always leaves its traces.
LZY: But you seemed so unwilling to part with this memory.
He pauses for a moment, gazing gently into my eyes.
LZY: [IN THE GENTLEST POSSIBLE TONE] So, if you wish to seek the traces of time, I can preserve the entirety of time for you.

【Chapter 4】
As the sky gradually imbues with darkness, the cable car reaches the end of its journey.
The words Li Zeyan said just now still linger in my ears, filling my entire heart with elation.
His love is omnipresent, allowing me to crash into it and be embraced by it at every turn, no matter where I casually roam in this world.
I want to hurry up and bring him to the destination; I want to present him with my surprise and give him all of my heart; I want to make him as happy as I am in this moment.
With this in mind, I pull him by the hand and start running in small steps.
His question echoes from behind, sinking into the night again, but I don’t say anything, only smiling at him.
We run all the way to the river side and spot the bubble house coming into view from afar. Quietly, I press the light control switch.
The dreamlike lights embrace flowers, fine wine, swaying candles, balloons and fireworks… At this moment, my innermost feelings seem to spill onto all the existences in the world.
MC: Happy Birthday, Li Zeyan.
Saying this softly, I look up to find his gaze and see his slightly dazed eyes illuminated brightly by the flowing light. But his eyes seem to be infinitely more resplendent than the moonlight.
LZY: When it comes to creating surprises, no one can ever surpass you.
He allows me to lead him by the hand and walk into the “bubble.” Then, he watches me as I take the cake out of the mini refrigerator and light the candles.
The candle flames dance, causing those eyes that have always been fixed on me to become even softer.
Drowning in his eyes, I softly breathe out a relaxed sigh.
MC: To be honest, until I arranged everything here and set up the gifts, I wasn’t entirely sure if this would be a good venue for your birthday celebration.
MC: Upon coming back here again with you today, I suddenly realized…
MC: Perhaps, from the moment we met eighteen years ago, fate had already quietly written our today.
MC: We just didn’t know it back then.
We didn’t know that we would lose each other, and then we would meet again after going around in circles.
We didn’t know that we would be so favored by fate, becoming such important parts of each other’s lives.
Li Zeyan, it was your appearance that made me start to believe in the existence of fate.
You’re such an incredible person that all my yearnings and adoration seem to naturally and rightfully find their way to you––
Becoming my unique and unmatched destiny.
I lift the cake towards him, as if holding my heart full of sincere wishes in my hands.
MC: The cake from the morning was pawed on by Pudding, so it could no longer shoulder the important task of making wishes.
MC: I hope this unblemished cake can hold all of your wishes.
He solemnly accepts all of my heart and sincerity, gazing at me for a long time, so long that the candle burns down another inch.
LZY: From the very first second of today, I’ve been blessed by a certain dummy with all of her heart and soul.
LZY: The old place where I met you in the past, today has given birth to new memories, all because of you.
LZY: Life wasn’t all bad before I met you.
LZY: But it wasn’t until I was constantly thought of, cared for, and loved by a certain dummy day and night that I realized the happiness fate had bestowed upon me was a million times greater than I could have ever imagined.
LZY: Once a person has known happiness, they will naturally want to preserve everything the way they are indefinitely.
LZY: This is my wish.
He gazes at me with an earnest and profound expression in his eyes, and then he blows out the candle.
MC: Hmm… although I really want to promise you this––
MC: But I’m greedier than you. I want every day of yours to be happier than the one before.
MC: I want to make you the happiest person in the whole world.
He gently lifts my hand and draws me into his arms.
LZY: You already have.
LZY: So, accompany me to an even longer and more distant future, and let’s witness the surprises fate has already written.
In a daze, my memories drift back to the day we first met when we were kids.
Just as I was certain back then that he would show up with a pudding for our rendezvous, at this moment, I am equally sure that I will accompany him to that future.
I gaze at him and nod emphatically.
Beneath the starry sky, we eat cake and drink wine, laughing and making clamors for a while, and then we just cuddle together quietly.
We let time silently slip away before our eyes, because it feels as though as long as we can be just like this, it’s enough to make us happy.
It’s not until the moon quietly shifts its position that the winter night brings with it a nip in the air.
Probably sensing that I’m a bit cold, he enfolds me in his arms, gently rubbing my hands until warmth blooms in them.
But he still appears a little uneasy, his brows creasing into a slight frown as he looks at my light clothing.
LZY: The weather is too cold; let’s go home.
MC: Since it’s a birthday celebration, it’s not considered over until the very last second.
I shake my wristwatch at him; there are still more than twenty minutes until the new day.
Probably because I’m being a bit too insistent, he can do nothing but hug me even more tightly, letting his body heat encase me.
Vaguely feeling a sound of helpless sighing on the verge of escaping above my head, I hurriedly press my finger against his lips gently.
MC: The birthday star is not allowed to sigh!
LZY: [IN THE MOST ADORABLY PLEADING TONE] I’m worried that you might catch a cold.
MC: I’ve got a solution.
I stand on tiptoes and kiss him. Then, resorting to my old trick, I take his hand and pull him along for a run towards the outside.
MC: Let’s run around, and we’ll be warm in no time!
But this time, after being taken aback for a split second, he steps ahead and overtakes me, pulling me along and leading me to run forward.
There’s something even more enchanting beyond hugs and kisses, and that is – lovers sprinting through the silent night.
The night is so thick with darkness that it engulfs any sense of direction, and I find myself momentarily uncertain if we are running toward the past or moving forward into the future.
Or perhaps, all along, we’d constantly been running towards each other in every passing moment.
Perhaps fate is not willing to treat such a fervent and sincere love unkindly, and so in the boundless night, a winding piano pathway unfolds before us like some kind of miracle.
We both freeze for a moment, then look at each other with a hint of delight.
LZY: Walking on the same path with a dummy, I guess a person is bound to run into surprises along the way.
Stepping onto the pathway, I hear a “clink” sound, so I hop a few more steps, and suddenly, the air is filled with tinkling noises.
I turn around, smile at him, and pull him onto the pathway.
MC: The journey to becoming a grand pianist can take various forms, and the one before us right now seems like a pretty good one.
The next second, I feel a force on my lower back, and I fall into his arms.
LZY: [THE OVERWHELMING JOY IN HIS VOICE x1] Well, in that case, dance with me.
The entire world resonates with the sounds created by us.
We hold each other tightly in an embrace, stepping on the musical notes flowing from the black and white piano keys.
As the notes intertwine, I close my eyes. Suddenly, I have the feeling as if I’m in a magnificent concert hall, playing a tacit ensemble with the person I love the most.
MC: How does it feel to have your “dreams” come true, my grand pianist?
LZY: [x2] This moment is far superior to any dreams.
MC: Then, how about allowing this moment to become a little more joyful?
As I speak, I gently lift his hand and twirl around with the dance steps.
The notes that do not form a melody fall into our hearts, giving birth to an unparalleled sense of fulfillment.
I find myself unable to resist looking at the person in front of me, only to find him gazing at me tenderly.
MC: Are you happy?
MC: I seem to only remember wishing you happiness, but I haven’t asked you yet. Are you happy?
–
Hearing the girl’s question, Li Zeyan is momentarily caught off guard.
Amid the disorderly notes, they dance with steps that keep getting tangled time and again, laughing together like two dummies.
Perhaps as long as she just stands there, her presence alone will make everything in front of him lovely, making it impossible for him not to be happy.
So, he nods.
LZY: [the overflowing joy in his tone here literally broke the last surviving barrier of my tear flood] Hm, I’m very happy.
Happiness doesn’t seem to be that difficult. After all, thanks to her, it has become a presence that is attainable at his fingertips almost in every second of every day.
It’s just that when a person becomes accustomed to the existence of happiness, they will naturally grow reliant and insatiable.
“So, hold her hand tightly, until the end of time,” — he thinks to himself.
The girl in front of him checks the time, announcing loudly that the hour hand is about to usher in a new day.
4, 3, 2, 1–– along with the countdown, she leans into him and wishes him “Happy Birthday” for the last time today.
Almost instinctively, he leans down and kisses her.
For all the years to come, may every sunrise and nightfall be as perfect as this moment.

take a little moment (find the right words)
“Wow,” Will breathes out, just on this edge of teasing. “You sound very confident about this.” “Well,” Mike shrugs, swallowing hard in a desperate attempt to soothe his very, very dry mouth, “I don’t know why someone wouldn’t be interested in you.” “Oh?” Will says, and it’s definitely teasing now, enough for Mike to feel himself turning warm, all down his neck and to the tips of his own – sadly unpatterned – socks. “Someone?” “Yeah.” Mike nods. Oh, god. This is fine. “In a very arbitrary sense of the word. Just– people. Someone.”
Mike is approximately ninety-eight percent sure that his feelings are requited. That last two percent, however, has really been throwing him for a loop.

ive been unhealthily fixated on kubosai for the past few weeks, i just have no idea how to put it into words. kuboyasu aren and saiki kusuo are in love btw
#they are.#been thinking a lot about t*rusai and k*bosai and all three of them together#(really long rant in these tags that shouldve been a rant post but im not changing it soz i got carried away LMAO->)#see the thing is that k*bosai is my absolute favorite ship ever. but i get genuinely pissed when people smack talk t*rusai#idk like i get why people wouldnt ship kbs and i really dont care. and i also get that a lot of people have differing opinions and-#wont ship trsai. i honestly cant wrap my head around why (other than people who just hate teruhashi and are misogynistic) but im okay with-#agreeing to disagree and i dont care yk??#but people so often make these long discussion posts just yapping and yapping and making up shit about how trsa 'wouldnt work'#and its always just... actual complete bullshit. like unreadable word vomit.#sorry. but its true.#thats why it gets me so mad#i cant think of a single reason why you would feel the need to do that#why cant you be normal and just. not like a ship. just dont like it. hate it even. but dont make up shit just to shit on it#its so dumb i have to force myself to just scroll past them every time i encounter one#usually on tiktok or tumblr#if i read them i wont be able to stop myself from making the most concerned and upset noises ever cuz what is actually wrong with you#theyre always the biggest dumbest stretches ever and they ignore their actual development and pretend it didnt happen#it just makes me wonder why people are so okay with making fun of that ship but get mad if anyone even dislikes theirs#and then they complain about people 'shitting on their opinion'#LIKE ?? NOBODY CARES THAT U HATE THE SHIP. I CERTAINLY DONT GAF.#but ur in the main tags advertising ur hatred for it and sounding stupid as shit for no reason? UR SHITTING ON PEOPLES SHIP ON PURPOSE#AND THEN GETTING MAD AT ANYONE WHO EVEN SAYS 'i disagree actually' IM LAUGHING SO HARD STOP IM KILLING MYSELF#the one time i ever talked in that much detail about why i disliked a ship was bevause somebody specifically asked me#and yk what ?? i have literally gotten death threats over it. im not allowed to hate that ship but everyone else can do whatever i guess#okay sorry. rant over.#is that controversial i cant tell. i dont really care and im not tagging anyway#meows post

Will you ever draw Wyatt again? Like how he would look in your Cyberpunk Dragons Au vs how u had him for FNAF? Ps I love your art especially how you make characters chunky, I just want to hug them!!!
Aaw thank you so much that really means a lot!! I too love my chunky characters, I'm glad others enjoy them as well ;; <33 And for sure, there will definitely be more Wyatt!! Especially now that he's in CPD where he actually has an entire story arc that revolves around him!! He also doesn't look any different from when he was a FNAF OC, he's still an animatronic mascot, he just got ported over to Cyberpunk Dragons where he's the main character for the world's largest multi-media company, Neon Wonderland (essentially the in-universe equivalent of Disney with Wyatt as their Mickey Mouse).
A little fun fact about Wyatt, he is the only fully sentient robot in the CPD universe, and it's a very closely guarded secret by his company!
I've had this WIP I've been poking at in my free time, it's the first time I've drawn him in a while!
#Ask Matsu#Cyberpunk Dragons#Wyatt#Neon Ocean Art#[ LOOK THAT'S MY BUNNY!!!!!!#I've missed him SO MUCH you have no idea!!!#he's taken on such a new life in CPD I'm so happy he's there now!!!#my sweet cuddle sugar cake batter bunny I LOVEEE HIM#genuinely Wyatt is one of my favorite character designs I've ever made sobs#it really made me smile to get an ask about him!!#his company said make him a cute bright pastel rabbit for the kids#and also make him huge and fucking JACKED with sharp teeth#you know for the adults!#Wyatt is probably the most popular iconography in the CPD universe#everyone is obsessed with this rabbit#fun fact: Trojan is also a huge Wyatt fanboy lolol!!! ]

It’s something only kinda implied but I love how Junpei is really smart and actually does know random bullshit information like everyone else does but he just like. Doesn’t use it unless he wants to end an argument
#zero escape#junpei tenmyouji#like in the safe ending hes just like. im so tired of everyone dying smh im just gonna go apeshit and solve every mystery ever#and my favorite moment is in ztd after the c team survives the dice roll in the rec room and he gets drunk#and akane and carlos keep fretting over how low the odds were of their survival and fucking#akane asks junpei like THE most bullshit question like ‘if 2^4 people ate ice cream what is the decimal’#and junpei just is like like ‘UGHHHH GOD OKAY FUCKING FINE i guess the answer is .03729 WHATEVER’#he just plays along but hes really annoyed about it akdbsk#like the issue isnt that he cant do the math the issue is that he doesnt care lol

Just a thought, what kind of bird do you think Felwinter and Timur would be? I feel like Felwinter would be a Raven, and Timur would maybe be a Thunderbird. But what kind do you think they would be? (I only ask this because Osiris is a pheonix, and Saint-14 is a pigeon, and I love the bird theme with them, so I was just curious, lol.)
Aah I like your suggestions, I don't think I have something to add! What a weird flock of birds they are, huh 😂💙
Maybe only that if we're sticking to the real existing birds, I could suggest a blue jay and aplomado falcon for Timur and Osiris.
Dunno, they just seem fitting alksdjhflkjs
#ask#i love birds#wonderful creatures#ravens are my favorites ofc#their ability to look both like the scariest and most majestic motherfuckers AND like the dumbest dipshits ever is truly unmatched

Feels a lil stuck up to call myself a "big undertale account" but plenty did reblog my version where I just added a sc of your tags and say that you're based 👍😭 stay based forever op!!
Omg bitches love me for my insane ramblings and my tags that I send out into the world without a second thought like a baby bird
EDIT I DECIDED TO CHECK YOUR ACCOUNT BEFORE POSTING THIS AND LITERALLY JUST NOTICED YOUVE MADE SOME OF MY FAVORITE UT FANART WTF thank you big Undertale account keep making me cry
#IM CRYINGGGGGG I love your art so much I didn’t realize it was you#no wonder this shit blew up#glad we agree on Flowey being the guy ever#it’s about how his appearance is so simple that it throws every player off the scent of this game being more than it is#more than it appears#bc he’s the first one you meet#and that reflects how he ends up being the most important character because you also wouldn’t expect that#it’s about how all Undertale routes are fundamentally about proving his kill or be killed philosophy right or wrong#it’s about when you prove him right he is killed because he didn’t kill you first#therefore solidifying his philosophy#and if you prove him wrong he refutes it altogether#‘don’t kill and don’t be killed okay’#OUUUUGGGHHHH#he’s my favorite character#AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON ASRIEL OH BOYYYYYY#ask#Undertale#Flowey the flower#Flowey

the world needs to know. How tall is adult ruv compared to viliskova/both of them
about yay high
#i can draw many things. but folded arms side profile is not one of them 👎#ruv (READ: in my headcanon!!!!!!! bc him slouched+bent knees makes him 8’11) is like close to 11’ which makes vilis over 9’#he looks at her like this now but keep in mind she was his ‘favorite’ mom in his youth#but oough. if they ever lived long enough to see his adulthood i feel like they did really try but were not the best parents growing up#now that wasn’t entirely their fault as times were tough and they couldn’t support him as well as they hoped to and theyd be somehow both#controlling yet neglectful— neither super extreme but the damage would already be done#in the present he wouldnt view them hatefully or negatively but more neutral. he Would let them be in his kids lives however#sad as it is they’d make farrrrr better grandparents!#they still very much love him despite it all#my art#ask#anon#mid fight masses#ruvyzvat#viliskova#also i am that person to put effort and detail on the body before inevitably covering most of it with drapey clothing. but look at da leggy
