#this was definitely sleeping beauty coded tho
Text
i had a thought so HEAR ME OUT, so we know that billy runs from town to town but what if one time
he's riding out of a town that has already got his very wanted face up all over town so he has no choice but to ride away from that town and when while he's riding he finds a stream so he set's up camp for the night by the stream. he's already hunted his dinner and fed his horse, he has his fire and whatever he's eating roasting when he hears singing. gun at the ready, he's walking close and closer to the person singing when he see's you singing as you look for mushrooms or other plants by the stream. now billy can't stop staring at you, listening to the sweet melodic tune you're singing(i imagined this as 'i wonder' from sleeping beauty). he just can't take his eyes off of you and you finally turn to see him and you just greet him with a "why hello there" (with a lil wave or something).
and he is still just awestruck now that he can see your face, ofc he's in awe of your beauty. by now he's already holstered his gun and he just stands up walking to you with a little "howdy miss" and it just goes from there. you start talking, even asking if he'd like to stay with you for the night in your cabin where you were raised by your three aunts away from the corruptness of the town where billy had just run from (i also imagine that the aunts were away for the week selling their goods in town which is why you ask billy to stay over). i can also see billy teaching you about the world since you have been sheltered your whole life.

If this was a competition to see who was winning in the advancement of their relationship with Percy let's just say:
1st place: Anubis
married
sleeps in the same bed
have a palace together
have a kid
Successfully co-parent
Semi-stable relationship (only because one doesn't know their actually in a relationship🤪)
2nd place: Hades
Married
Rule together (sorta I mean their King and Queen of Helheim now so c'est la vie)
Took her first kiss
Has had some HEAVY petting sessions
3rd Place: Poseidon (I just know he would hate that his relationship is ranked lower than Anubis AND Hades but u snooze, u lose; my man)
Closer bond and easier access to Percy and what she can and can't do (cause he's, u know...her dad😭)
Have couple-themed thrones
Has the backing of Proteus and the other seven kingdoms (plus mommy!rhea)
Had some HEAVY petting sessions😏
Will throw hands for his daughter (no words, his hands are rated E for everyone (even Percy but only during certain...situations😏👏🍑))
4th Place: Beelzebub (has been bumped down to 4 since he's been avoiding her lately and the other yans have taken this time to STEP UP their mf game!)
Percy has an unacknowledged growing crush on him that was confirmed by Aphrodite
They have gone on MULTIPLE dates (strawberry picking, trips to the city, Ferris wheel💙, outings to Valhalla, sightseeing via taxi cab(with a little side of assisted homicide for flair 💅🏾) slow dancing, etc.)
Knows about her friends and family
Knows most of her secrets
Shared backstories
Similar suicidal tendencies (we love shared trauma🥺)
Slow burn couple
Compliment each other personalities (very black cat and golden retriever vibes)
BONDAGE
Also very How to Train Your Own Percy coded (rewards via blue food and walks help✅)
5th Place: Loki (lost a lot of points with the recent murder attempt but gained some aura points for saving his girl from being 🍇ed by her uncle so be lucky u made it to 5th)
Been on MULTIPLE dates (dinner in Valhalla, sleepover in Asgard, braiding each other's hair, trip to Scandinavia (even tho it was brief lol), etc.)
Knows most of her more important secrets
Personally crafted a life sized doll in her image (even when she's not around he's thinking about her🥺)
6th Place: Apollo
Been on ONE date
Is an honest and genuine guy
Can't and won't lie to her (we all need a partner like this)
Things she's beautiful no matter what state he sees her in (it's mostly angry or irritated)
7th Place: Cu Chulainn (TBD)
Not much known yet but I predict he will be an ass at first but his shittiness grows on u (like a situationship that was only supposed to last months but lasted years instead 😭)
Little enemies to lovers (they have fun bantering w each other)
I LOVE THE LITTLE SUMMARIES OF EACH SHIP 😭😭😭
especially the beelzebub one!!! let me just add that they used to go on WEEKLY dates together!!!
so the ones i wrote about are just a few of them, there are actually many more that happen off-screen (cuz you know, i gotta focus on the plot) so yeah, since beel used to be her caretaker for months now and they go to "dates" on midgard once a week (unless percy misbehaves during class or scores low on exams lol; the midgard dates are her rewards for being "good" so yeah), they've been on at least more than ten dates
(they're actually really not dates to percy, she just thinks it's two besties hanging out, but to beel??? oh yes they are DEFINITELY dates)

What nicknames do you think the turtles would call their s/o?(preferably romantic, but platonic's fine)
Well, I think..
Raph would call you his 'angel'. He's so soft and endearing, put plainly his 'love' / 'lovely'. I can see him using 'dear' or 'honey' / 'hon' too since he's such an old soul. Maybe even 'sugar'. Platonically hnnn @marwhoa mentioned 'lass' once and I have yet to use it in a fic but I can just see Raph saying that. Or 'lady' ! And 'boss' ofc, he refers to himself as boss mostly or his brothers, but I think he would use it with close friends too..
Leo would call you 'babe' one thousand percent tho I may just be influenced by the fics I've read. He's a tease and he's super annoying so I can imagine it being long and drawn out, 'babeeeeeeee' 'baaaaaabe' and all the flirty compliments, 'beautiful' 'gorgeous' and let's not forget 'princess' since yk he's so charming and charismatic but yeah don't forget about super embarrassing ones just to annoy you, 'apple of my eye' 'nutter butter' ' snookums' 'honey bunches' these are used when he requires attention asap orrr when he knows he's done messed up and he's trying to be slick or cover it up and he would probably use those embarrassing names platonically too so no one is safe
Donnie uses 'darling' and I will stand by this one. 'beloved' doesn't seem far from something he would say either, 'doll' may be stretching it but I'm adding it :p If Donnie is particularly inhibited or just like sleep deprived, just out of his normal wits for whatever reason I can see him calling you 'precious' (and that's totally not bc of my yandere!donnie fic... nope not at all) I can also see his more shy self just calling you his 'person' if he is not super confident with nicknames yet. One more, something about stars and Donnie just go together, so his 'star' 'supernova' 'galaxy' 'universe' & the like.. Platonic Donnie would use code names the two of you come up with like he does with April, or yk just call you 'friend' 'best friend #2' or whatever your status on the totem pole of friendship, if y'all ain't close he would definitely use 'acquaintance' or 'stranger' LOL
Mikey is already over-the-top friendly so lets start with the platonics for the sweetest boy. As friends you are his 'munchkin' his 'cutie patootie' more tame ones would be 'bestie' 'queen' 'forever friend' and then to wine & dine you, win you and that lovely heart over, it would have to be, his 'sunshine' 'sweetheart' 'sweets' 'my one and only' like Raph I can see him using 'angel' too, he would think it's cuter bc it is part of his name, intertwining the two of you together in any way he can

🫂Sibling Tag 🫂
So.... did I disappear off tumblr lowkey for the last week or so? Womp womp WHOOPS! Anyways, we're back with a banger, finally addressing the plethora of tag games I've been mentioned in. If I missed yours, feel free to @ me again. But for now, thank you to the lovely satoh for the tag (not tagging for now), @paeliae-occasionally, and the open tag from @mysticstarlightduck.
Answering for the Singer children, the ja siblings, and Cara & Caramel (per satoh’s request).
Without further ado, let's get into it...
╚══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══╝✧༺♥༻∞╚══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══╝
1. who looks more like their dad
singers: okay so this is tough because face structure wise, fawn has the closest likeness, and she also has his eye colour. BUT, even tho evan has a hybrid of his mom and his dads face structure, because he’s a guy, the male features of his father translate better. so it’s hard. i’d still say fawn tho because she looks like the female version of him jas: raheer is known for looking exactly like morreial bro it’s acc insane. he’s got the dark wavy hair, the ivory tanned skin, the grey eyes— the entire shbang. only thing he’s probably missing are the blue lips and the fullness of morreial’s lips. cxc: cara and caramel are orphans who never met their biological parents. they’re also not blood related, so who knows?
2. who looks more like their mom
singers: elenfa’s eyes, nose, and face shape are all her mother’s even if the colour palette of her features are from her father. she also carries herself like her mother, so her jas: riyzela has cara’s nose and heart shaped face, but everything else is very morreial coded. still, her. cxc: n/a
3. who eats the most?
singers: fawn. she canonically ate an entire dining table of meat solo (she was extremely hungry and happy once she finished). she also proceeded to eat evan’s birthday feast almost entirely solo jas: raheer, simply because he’s taller and brawnier than riyzela is. more muscle mass and his vigorous activity give him a mighty appetite. plus, being fawn’s best friend cxc: caramel. she quite literally told alan that 2 dozen apple-vines (a sweet savoury THICK dessert fruit delicacy) was a snack. and when he says that’s a lot of food, she tells him anything less than that is a bird’s appetite
4. who has been in the weirdest situations?
singers: evan. i don’t even need to explain this one but i will anyways. mans found himself in situations where he accidentally blew up a mountain, fell into a volcano, got cannibalized by a tree, had a lightning strike to the chest, got stuck in a portal prison in another realm… i could go on jas: raheer but only because fawn is his best friend, and fawn likes getting into shenanigans. before evan was born, she was the notorious singer menace cxc: cara. i know that’s a surprising answer, but cara just does it for the vibes. she poses as a man and goes to compete in jousts; she purposefully drowned herself underwater as a baby to follow a cool snake; she learned parkour so she could hunt birds… yeah, definitely her.
5. who sleeps the most?
singers: fawn. she enjoys her beauty sleep and being relaxed, and she’s the only singer sibling to not be chronically stressed and burdened with responsibility jas: riyzela. raheer is so diligent and militant for sleeping in. riyzela doesn’t gaf cxc: caramel. she literally schedules naps into her daily routine.
6. most stable romantic life?
singers: elenfa funnily enough, since she's not allowed to date due to the strictness of her upbringing. so when she finally does get into a relationship, it's a proper, stable one. jas: raheer because he's a good boyfriend and knows when to end the relationship on good terms. He ends up in a long-term relationship too that starts off on an interesting basis, but is healthy throughout since they were friend first cxc: cara and morreial literally get cuffed one-month into meeting each other and end up being the healthiest, most stable couple ToV has ever seen. not to say caramel doesn't end up in a healthy relationship and married to the person she gets with; but cara doesn't have the.... toxic bits that caramel and her partner have (OOF)
7. worst habit of each?
singers: elenfa: shutting people out fawn: diobedience and shirking responsibility evan: refusing to accept help from others \\ bottling up and exploding w his emotions \\ using people as his blank slates
jas: raheer: push over + lack of boundaries riyzela: player + committment issues
cxc: caramel: overcontrolling and lack of consideration for others \\ stealing for fun cara: losing track of time + getting distracted \\ manipulating people
8. who’s the most dramatic?
singers: evan (fawn is close second tho). this kid deadass flung himself into a volcano as a coping mechanism, and when he realized the entire civilization he moved to didn't have exciting fashion sense, proceeded to runway style dress up every day until they picked up their slack and became the most fashionable region in soilaila.
jas: they’re both apathetic as hell.
cxc: caramel. i don't need to explain this, i think. she likes extra. she breathes extra. which means, she breathes theatrics. certified drama queen
9. who had the weird phase?
singers: ooo i feel like evan and fawn tie for this category. before evan was born, fawn was the certified menace in the singer palace. she quite literally would haunt the halls and scary the shits out of everyone until she befriended raheer. evan, on the other hand, would climb up heights and launch himself of the palace top floor, so i feel like they both match up in that sense.
jas: maybe riyzela? to be honest, they're both pretty normal.
cxc: cara because it’s this girl's hobby to travel the world and unearth deep lore of every civilization
10. best cook in the family?
singers: ironically... evan. he hates food but is great at cooking. make it make sense (its because he's the only one who learned how to be self-competent)
jas: raheer because him and his dad used to cook together as a father-son bonding moment
cxc: LMAOOO
11. best memory together?
singers: i feel like they'd all have the same one, to be honest: the day they all finally just... sat in each other's rooms and stayed up late, talking. they all grew up isolated and separated from each other, so being able to just sit on the floors of elenfa's room while looking through old memory books and sharing stories, laughing-- they had never done that before.
jas: i think raheer’s favourite memory of them would be in their childhood, when riyzela would read stories to him and he’d have his head in her lap, painting sunflowers on her arm riyzela’s of them would be the day he asked her to give him his wedding tattoos and present him at the altar
cxc: caramel adores their heists together, because it was the times where she felt she and cara bonded the most. caramel doing her magic and cara yapping away to keep her company. cara’s favourite memory, on the other hand, would be the day caramel asked for her name, took her hand, and said she’d take care of her forever
12. worst memory together?
singers: oof. without delving into spoilers, evan’s worst memory of elenfa is probably the day he confessed a deeply traumatic event that occurred to him when he was 6 years old, and her response was to tell him she was disappointed in him, then tattles to their parents. that level of betrayal never left him, even decades later. his worst memory of fawn would be when she looked him in the eye and said he was no brother of hers, at least not one she cared about anymore. elenfa’s worst memory of evan— again, while avoiding spoilers— would probably be the day he woke up from his broken arm injury thing and she saw his scars for the first time. mainly because she felt like such a failure of an older sister in that moment. and her worst memory of fawn is when she told elenfa she was selfish and horrible and everything she resented. youch. fawn’s worst memory of evan is probably after the soc injury he sustains, when she sits outside his door and hears him breakdown in guttural sobs for the first time. she’s never heard him cry like that before, but hearing it then made her realize how many times he cried like that in private because of how much she ignored him, so that’s def a yikes. THAT or a major spoiler event, so i can’t say that one. her worst memory of elenfa is probably the day she saw elenfa arm-in-arm with riyzela, promenading their special spot after elenfa basically cut her sister off and neglected her for the rest of their childhoods.
what do you mean the singer children have a conflicted dynamic with each other? idk what you’re talking about it… 🫣
jas: raheer’s worst memory of riyzela is probably when he watched her spiral into her alcoholism. not a fun time for anyone, but esp not her baby brother who idolized her. riyzela’s worst memory of raheer is seeing him slowly wither away during his coma, helpless and incapable of doing anything but watch him die.
cxc: caramel’s worst memory of cara is honestly probably the day she told her she didn’t want to steal anymore ORRRR the day she begged her for help and cara didn’t come because she was out with morreial cara’s worst memory of caramel is probably seeing the faded look in her eyes after she loses her mind
13. dream trip together?
singers: evan’s dream siblings trip is one they actually end up going on— to take a family trip around the entire Non-Mage World and go exploring properly. the last time they tried… events transpired. fawn’s dream trip would specifically be the mountains of soilaila, or the eastern continents. elenfa’s would be ividor or exploring the deserts together and actually crossing through the sand plains.
jas: raheer would want to go skiing with riyzela. race her to the bottom since they’re both water-dancers. riyzela would probably want to go somewhere beachy where she could collect pearls and go deep sea diving. raheer would actually be able to keep up too, hence the sibling trip.
cxc: caramel would want to go to the moon. deadass. she’d try to invent some magic form to achieve it. cara would just want to go to a meadow of flowers to collect bouquets and stargaze all night.
14. WYR: not be able to shower or change clothes?
singers: evan— not shower. he had faer had a convo about this once and she was horrified by his answer (he was discussing how he doesn’t pee) fawn— not change clothes. she plays in dirt all day so she kinda needs it elenfa— not change clothes. she’d be upset about it, but this girl lives in fire and would always be covered by soot and ash if she didn’t shower (so would evan, but he’s willing to make those sacrifices for fashion)
jas: riyzela— not shower. she’d just go for swims. fashion means the world to her. raheer— not change clothes. he’s a soldier. he basically wears uniform everyday anyways.
cxc: caramel— not change clothes because she already doesn’t lol. not unless you offer her something pretty. cara— not change clothes. she also likes wearing the same thing everyday.
15. who’s older?
singers: the order of siblings from eldest to youngest is: elenfa, fawn, evan.
jas: riyzela is older.
cxc: caramel refuses to admit it, but cara is older.
16. describe others in 3 words
singers: evan would describe fawn as: free-spirited, bubbly, and diplomatic. he’d describe elenfa as perfect, cold, and elegant. fawn would describe evan as reactive, distant, but charming. she’d describe elenfa as admirable, intelligent, but hollow. elenfa would describe evan as unruly, chaotic; but powerful. and she’d describe fawn as full of life, charismatic, and everything she wishes she was.
jas: riyzela would describe raheer as shy, kindhearted, and loyal. raheer would describe riyzela as cunning, conniving, and disinterested.
cxc: caramel would describe cara as talkative, enthusiastic, and gentle. cara would describe caramel as secretly tender hearted, fiercely protective, and unmatched in terms of power.
17. role model?
singers: evan’s role model is ret ja pietro candreva and noctem. fawn’s role model was elenfa. then, she gave up on the idea of role models all together and started to aspire to be the woman in the mirror. elenfa’s role model is caramel, alan, evan, and fawn. she wishes she was all of them, for all the qualities she loves about them. but also, secretly, her role model is qatya and amara.
jas: riyzela’s role model is cara and amara. raheer’s role model is ret ja pietro, morreial, riyzela, and evan.
cxc: caramel doesn’t have a role model. she just wants to be someone who doesn’t disappoint the people she loves (cara). cara’s role model is caramel.
18. who usually has worst ideas
singers: evan. goes without saying. once again, i bring up the “launches himself into the volcano on a regular basis” complex he has
jas: riyzela. raheer tries to stay out of trouble, but tends to get dragged into it, whereas riyzela is a conspiracist.
cxc: caramel. i feel like i don’t need to explain this either, but she likes to break rules outta spite, which births a lot of bad decisions.
19. giant insect on wall— certified bug killer?
singers: fawn would yell at evan for trying to light the entire wall on fire while trying to kill it. elenfa would be the only person focused enough to get the job done.
jas: raheer would probably hide behind riyzela until she killed it for him. but that’s only when they’re younger. if they’re older, you’d find him with his lamp on in the middle of the night, experimenting with the captured bug, testing out different poisons and antidotes on it. riyzela wouldn’t even bother killing it (unless raheer asked her to). she’d notice it, shrug, and look away.
cxc: caramel WOULD do it, but only if she couldn’t goad one of the boys to do it for her.

More Gilded Shadows Headcanons
disclaimer: this is for fun and the characters belong to @steamberrystudio with that in mind, lets go:
Jack Headcanons
Is a chaotic bisexual
Look at this man and then tell me to my face he does not have bisexual energy
Ironically, never been with a man himself, he has crushes though
It was Caleb and Caissa, he will take those secrets to his grave though
Caleb never knew but I feel like Caissa was aware to some degree
To which i say, good taste Jack
Is def more muscular than the other LIs, almost always on the move no matter what
Lashes are longer than you’d think
The dog energy is strong with this one, more wild rather than fully trained
Fluctuates with nihilistic thoughts and wanting to live still
Emotional intimacy is far and in between for Jack, so he’s… not well skilled
Or rather, he keeps emotional intimacy at bay? I dont think it’s on purpose
At least not always
He thought of getting a tattoo, but somehow managed to convince Caleb into getting one
Or at least thinking about getting one
Has stupid amounts of luck, like there are so many situations he’s been in where he definitely shouldn’t be alive
Lowkey, people have a nickname for him, Lucky Jack or Jack Rabbit
He kind of hates it tho
His sense of fashion is quite literally the badboy your dad warns daughters about HAH
No sense of fashion to speak of when you’re busy surviving though
Likes loose fitting and breathy clothes though, or something that won’t snag or be grabbed on
Gets both flustered and confused when referred as ‘pretty’ or ‘beautiful’ like h u h
Does he look anything like that to yall–
Lowkey doesn’t get genuinely complimented a lot so it sends him for a loop sometimes
Can code switch like none other and it freaks some people out
Rowan Headcanons
Mmmm eldest sibling trauma go brrr /j
Good with his hands and fiddles around with things whenever he’s anxious or bored
Gay
Not a fan of being touched i think? Def not by strangers at least.
Likes his hair being played with, Velli only tho
Bitter about his parents so he chooses not to think about it
Annoying people is his way of showing love
He worries about Celeste a lot, the two are like siblings
Genuinely likes flowers and gardening, don’t tell anyone
A theater kid in disguise
When he first realized he had romantic feelings for Velli, he admittedly freaked out
To the point he purposely avoided Velli until Velli sought him out
They quickly hashed their feelings out
has a customer service voice he accidentally used in the Court and no one let him have peace for WEEKS
Velli Headcanons
Only child
Kind of an attention whore to some extent
Will actually let the world burn for his loved ones (Rowan)
Pansexual
Kind of reminds you of a panther
Likes silver, while Velli likes gold
Job doesn’t let him wear jewelry for obvious reasons
But keeps a ring in his room from Rowan that he absolutely treasures
Velli is shorter of the two but has carried Rowan before
finds Rowan's attempts to spoil him sweet ngl
Celeste Headcanons
She likes lizards, she just hits me as a lover of reptiles
Ties her hair back whenever particularly gruesome injuries are seen
Her and Rory are companions, def close
She can sleep anywhere and it’s nigh impressive
Rory frets over her i think
Feeling aro/ace to some degree
Or maybe she’s just tired constantly
Practical to the point it whirls back around to being a problem
Big trans girl energy
Has a knife on her at all times
And has used her biokensis to kill before
She doesn’t like using it for that and it's a clear indication from inexperience
But she will if needed

Vash and Wolfwood with a Muslim!F!reader (PLATONIC)
tw/: none
(98 and tristamp coded)
def gonna create a 2nd part with more characters. i loved writing this
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
𓆩𓆪Vash The Stampede
• Vash, in his many years of traversing the desert plains of Noman's land, has definitely seen a group of Muslims or, in a rare case, an entire Islamic colony.
• I can imagine that Islam as a religion is a minority here, most of them comprising of people from Earth settlements and building upon that. Either way, it's rare to see a muslim, much less a hijabi around these parts.
• He met you right alongside the insurance girls (or meryl and roberto in tristamp)
• I can imagine you two hitting it off really well.
• Since he's been to a Muslim community before, he's kinda familiar with the rules and customs you follow and thinks your religion is admirable.
• 98' Vash would lowkey forget that he shouldn't initiate physical contact with you, so you have to remind him a lot lol
• But give him a fistbump or a head pat, and he's got the goofiest smile on his face—
• Both 98' and tristamp Vash would relate to your feeling of isolation, even if in your case it's a bit murky.
• Imagine the gang finally stopping at a town for respite, and all of them rush to the local bar to crack open a cold one. BAM! Suddenly, you're reminded that you're different.
• He's a plant, and the hard truth is that it's inevitable he's gonna feel isolated from humans.
• But you don't have to go through that.
• Vash would notice you standing near the vehicle watching the sunset, alone, and he sets the drink he just paid for back down to join you instead.
• You'd insist that you're fine and that he should go relax with the others. But instead of complying, he'd offer the two of you to walk around town, maybe buy something to eat along the way.
• You are NOT safe from his trinket collection, and that includes the rare occasion he finds a merchant selling tasbeehs and other knick-knacks. They remind you of home, and your heart warms at the sweet gesture.
• Is really protective of you once you get closer.
• He can't help it. You just take up so little space in a world where the loud ones win. It's not like he doesn't believe you can't fight for yourself.
• You're just so...pure and good-hearted.
• You can't blame him for wanting to cherish that.
• If you wear a hijab, he saw you without one accidently THAT ONE TIME and lowkey felt really guilty even tho you said it was okay
• Some nights when he can't sleep and watches the golden embers of the campfire slowly die, he'd find solace in the soft murmurs of your prayers. The simple act of your devotion to God is a beautiful reminder as to how humans can survive in this desolate land.
• Maybe one day he'll get the courage to ask you about them. Would do him good.
Tumblr media
♱Nicholas D. Wolfwood
• HOOO BOOY
• I thought a lot for this one
• Both Wolfwoods would honestly treat you the same like they do with everyone
• You know: being a little sh—
• I think 98' Wolfwood would have some vague idea of what muslims are
• Tristamp Nico would have no freaking clue lmaoo like my man just got out of a torture chamber
• The first encounter would be like: "Name's Wolfwood." And he extends his hand to shake yours
• But you obv can't do that so now the two of you just stand there like:
• 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♀️
• Im sorry they're def the type to ask those questions like:
• "Don't you feel hot under all that?" "How do you wash your hair?"
• And my personal favourie:
• "Not even water??"
• The first time he asks is because he's genuinely curious. But as soon as he realizes just how pissed off you get when he asks them? God may be merciful, but this preist sure ain't—
• It was a challenge to get close to him
• I mean, both of you have completely different perspectives on religion, and you clash a lot on that.
• Can't blame him. Man grew up in a literal cult—
• But there'd be a point where you two set aside your differences and just...co-exist lol
• Is surprised when you laugh at his dark jokes
• You know he's officially taken you under his wing once he gives you a stupidly endearing nickname
• Would seize every opportunity to noogie your head
• Def big brother vibes. Would glare at the person judging you for wearing a scarf when you're just trying to buy supplies.
• If he ever takes you to his orphanage, seeing the children innocently ask questions and look at you with a curious gaze would def warm his heart.
• Not that he would ever admit it.
• Nights when the crew camps in the middle of nowhere and he can't sleep. He'd sit beside you against the trunk of the car in silence. The smoke from his cigarette dissolving in the air faster than he can wrap his mind around his frequent nightmares. There is vulnerability in his eyes, and you're one of the few to provide him his well-earned peace. Not advice, but just listening. For some reason, you're really good at that.

ok wait maybe I'm not lazy (because I'm a lil bit insane!)
Jose Mauro (Google him tho his whole story is fucking insane ngl!) Makes I think stuff in Portuguese.
Kit Sebastian makes stuff in I think English & French?

[END 2020] My Top 9 Danmei Novel Picks of the Year
As a part of my Round Up post for the year, here’s my pick of favourite danmei novels, that I’ve read! This is sort of an accompaniment to my previous danmei rec list over HERE, so there may be one or two overlaps, but I’ve read WAY MORE after that and am prepared to like give more options here 
Tumblr media
Note: There should be English translations for all via novel updates if you do a search of the English name, but I don’t think most of them are completed.
If you wanna see my full reading and queue list (it’s all in Chinese tho, for my own records), it’s here.
I’m leaving out the usual MXTX and Priest ones, because they’re already good and we all know that and there’re many carrds and posts dedicated to them.
I am also a sucker for fainting but smart men, and not too overly angsty/complicated storylines, just putting it out there first, which is why I haven’t read a lot of some of the ones on my queue list.

1. 一剑霜寒 | A Sword of Frost by 语笑阑珊
Summary: Jing Yan Ran is the Emperor’s brother and wields military power in the novel, and it starts with an object being stolen from the palace. Jing Yan Ran has to retrieve the item secretly, and so enlists the help of Feng Yu Sect’s Sect Master, Yun Yi Feng, who heads the martial arts world’s one and only information trading post. Yun Yi Feng does not deal in business that involves any royalty, but Jing Yan Ran offers him something he cannot refuse - the Blood Red Lingzhi, a rare and mystical herb that is rumoured to be able to treat his life-threatening condition. 
Yun Yi Feng was used by his shifu when he was younger to test out all kinds of poisons and cures, and since then, his body flushes dangerously hot and cold frequently, with bouts of severe coughing fits in between. Throughout the first mission where he spends time with Jing Yan Ran searching for the stolen object, he allows Jing Yan Ran to take care of him, and they fall in LURVE pretty much like 10 chapters in.
Of course, they have to uncover a plot and conspiracy against their enemies who are plotting to dethrone the Emperor, and also reveal the secrets of Yun Yi Feng’s birth.
My Thoughts: AN ABSOLUTE FAVE AND GEM, I’d say this is my favourite danmei novel ever. This is both hilarious and tears-inducing, to be honest, because for most of the novel YYF knows he doesn’t have long to live and so in the beginning he knows of his own feelings for JYR and JYR also shows him that he loves him, but he is unable to officially reciprocate because he knows his body is like weakening day by day. Halfway through the fear that he’s literally about to die as they are JUST about to find the cure is real, and damn I cried so much at that. Some highlights:
YYF falls asleep very easily in baths and everywhere actually, and pretty much within the first 10 chapters he gets used to JYR carrying him around (even naked from the bath, he’s like oh well, okay cool) and taking care of him, and JYR ALWAYS makes sure he is warm and toasty under his cape
YYF LOVESSSS RICHES, PLAYING THE ZITHER AND COOKING - He’s good at gathering the first one, but he FUCKING SUCKS AS THE LAST TWO - It’s so funny because he’s so beautiful and handsome right, and when he sits down at the zither everyone is like OH DAMN WHAT A DREAM- and then he plays, and everyone’s fantasies is shattered, he’s ABYSMAL at it, and the same goes for cooking
JYR doesn’t actually have the Blood Red Lingzhi, and throughout the first arc, he feels SO DAMN GUILTY because YYF even carved out a pendant that looks like what he thinks the herb looks like, and like carries it with him everywhere LMAO

2. 高能二维码 | High Energy QR Code by 青色羽翼
Summary: CEO Xing Ye’s brother Xing Shuo has just passed away at the age of 24, and nothing will make him believe that Xing Shuo died of natural causes despite autopsies and experts telling him that he really died simply of a heart failure. Xing Ye, who has impeccable memory, suddenly recalls the last time he saw Xing Shuo. His brother called out to him just before Xing Ye left for a business trip, and looked as if he had something to say, but ended up just wishing him a safe trip.
At that moment, there was a QR code on Xing Shuo’s phone, and the phone screen was strangely turned out towards Xing Ye, and Xing Ye, with his incredibly high IQ and memory, realizes that Xing Shuo wanted him to see the QR code. Quickly, he reproduces the QR code by pen and then scans it, and finds himself in a game world.
There he meets a narcissistic but also cute mirror which can speak, and finds out later that his name is Lu Ming Ze. Xing Ye’s mission is to clear the game missions in each round that is set by the black and white cubic game system, a system that continuously tempts its players into giving in to committing sins such as killing someone else, stealing and other things. He soon realizes that if he cannot stay on a path clear of these sins, he will never be able to triumph over the game system and return Lu Ming Ze back to his body in the real world. 
At the same time, he gains new teammates and friends for life, and also finds out what role his brother played in this game. 
My Thoughts: MY GOD I LOVE THIS. I LITERALLY JUST FINISHED READING THIS YESTERDAY, and honestly it’s one of my faves. I don’t like game systems very often (I’ve read three others so far, and this, and KOD are the only ones I’ve liked) but this one is *chef’s kiss*. So LMZ was born like with a really handsome face, like SUPER HANDSOME, and that’s why he’s like a harmless narcissist that cannot bear to look at ugly things LMAO, but he’s not spoilt, he makes sure that Xing Ye stays true to himself, and help him keep his head clear. 
THE ONLY THING ABOUT THIS FRICKIN NOVEL IS THAT LU MING ZE STAYS A MIRROR, LIKE DIFFERENT KINDS OF MIRRORS, in the first TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY CHAPTERS. I KID YOU NOT. I FRICKIN KID YOU NOT. I swear I was sooo touched starved at the end of the novel, because they couldn’t even kiss?!! Like Xing Ye kisses the mirror, and then uses his thumbs to like hi-five mini LMZ in the mirror back, they can’t even hug. Do you know how empty my arms felt when I read this book?!! And my arms have never been filled!!!!!!
I really like this one because each game world is set up in such a brilliant way, but it’s not so unnecessarily complex that you literally don’t know what the fuck is going on. Xing Ye’s intelligence as he outmanoeuvres every single one of his enemies and convinces his would-be loyal teammates to trust him is so satisfying, world after world, victory after victory.
Humour is also absolutely ON POINT. A lot of it is centred on Xing Ye getting caught in the real world kissing his handheld mirror (LMZ) by LMZ’s parents (who cannot see him in the mirror) and LMZ’s parents going like ???!!!!!!!!

3. 妻为上 | The Wife is First by 绿野千鹤
Summary: This is set in a historical setting where men can marry other men, but it’s usually reserved for sons who were not borne by the official main first wife of the patriarch of the family, i.e. a son born by a concubine in a family may be forced to marry a man to keep him from being able to become the next family’s patriarch for example. This is because any family’s next leader needs to be able to have children with a wife who married in as a zheng shi (lawful wife), and not a ce shi (second wife) or any other concubines/mistresses etc. Most of these men who marry other men have to take them as their zheng shi and lawful spouse in a sense, and the same goes for the royal family.
The story starts with third prince Jing Shao, who was forced to marry Mu Han Zhang, a Marquis’ second son, by the Empress and Emperor, thereby officially and effectively cutting him out of the race for the throne. He’s mocked by the public as everyone knows what this means, and for the next 10 years, he neglects Mu Han Zhang, blaming him for his predicament, and deliberately showers his three other concubines with affection in front of him, but 10 years later, when Jing Shao is accused of treason, everyone leaves him except for Mu Han Zhang. They are chased to the edge of the cliff by soldiers, and Mu Han Zhang dies in his arms having taken an arrow meant for him earlier, and Jing Shao jumps off the cliff with his dead body, and promises that if there’s a next life, he will do everything Han Zhang says, and love him.
He wakes up immediately on the night of his marriage with Han Zhang, and realizes that he’s been given a second chance to make everything right. Han Zhang is definitely afraid of him, humiliated and angry when he first wakes up after how rough Jing Shao was with him earlier on their wedding night, and he has no memories of their past life. Jing Shao then sets to SHOWER HAN ZHANG with affection, love and basically everything, because he realized that this is the only person who stayed by his side until the end, and then he falls in love with Han Zhang properly this time, and also deals with every single person who maligned and schemed against him in his previous life, with Han Zhang by his side.
My Thoughts: OKAY BEFORE YALL GO INTO THE ‘WIFE’ terminology discourse and everything, in this case they do use the term ‘wife’ literally, and it’s a position, that while men frequently fall into (there are a lot of male ‘wives’ in this story), is also used to cut off like sons from inheriting the family and the fortune, and even titles. Male ‘wives’ aren’t looked down upon in this setting, in fact, Han Zhang gets a lot of leeway as one, and in his case he was also able to rise up the ranks to be an actual official later on, but the sad thing comes from sons who are most of the time forced to marry a male ‘wife’ for whatever reason, and then they are neglected as the son goes and find concubines, women he actually wants to sleep with - this is sad af yall. I don’t know, on one hand, yay for equality in marriage in this setting, but on the other hand like, damn, must you use same-sex marriage like that argh.
ANYWAY THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVES TOO?!!! I mean, especially when Jing Shao literally just goes into doting mode 200% and Han Zhang is totally like wtf why is he so nice to me is he scheming or something? And then he realizes that Jing Shao is really, really gentle towards him despite his reputation as a cruel, dark military commander, and Jing Shao always smiles at him. In any situation, especially in the beginning, when Han Zhang thought Jing Shao would not stand with him, Jing Shao literally just protects him no matter what, gives him everything, and cries, I love it. 
Especially because Han Zhang is the son of a concubine and he was bullied a lot in the Mu family, and the official Lady Mu married him off to Jing Shao in hopes that he would be unhappy for the rest of his life, and I suppose that came true in the first life, but in the second, Han Zhang gets all the love, respect and support he never got before in this family with Jing Shao and that makes me WEEP.

4. 死亡万花筒 Kaleidoscope of Death by 西子绪
OOOH I intro-ed KOD here in my previous rec list. Still one of my faves and all-time re-reads, especially under the covers in the dark hehehe.

5. 你的距离 | Your Distance by 公子优 
Summary: Ting Shuang is a student at a German university, and has this handsome professor Bai Chang Yi who he swears kind of hates him. He’s just broken up with his longtime boyfriend, and then goes on this dating app that matches a profile with him based on distance. The app can also show the matched profile’s distance from him once they enter the same area, and Ting Shuang starts chatting with this Chinese guy on the app, who he finds out later, is 36 years old, 187cm in height and wears glasses. 
The guy is a little aloof and cool, very mature in his replies on the app, and somehow Bai Chang Yi finds out who he is later, as Ting Shuang starts complaining to him about his professor to Bai Chang Yi. Instead of getting angry and offended, BCY is pretty much amused and finds Ting Shuang cute. A few days later Ting Shuang finally realizes who it is he’s been texting, and after getting past the initial embarrassment and fear, they start dating for real, and they really fall in love!!!!! 
My Thoughts: This is sweet and also hilarious af, if you need to like satisfy your sweet tooth, this is definitely one for you. It’s really funny because Bai Chang Yi runs in the same circles as Ting Shuang’s dad, who he’s estranged from because the dad doesn’t want to recognize a son who is gay, and then BCY convinces him later in the funniest of ways, and there’s a small subplot at the end in which Ting Shuang is pretty cool, and yep, short and sweet! BCY in the manhua is handsome af too guys ;-;

6. 神木挠不尽 The White Cat’s Divine Scratching Post by 绿野千鹤
Summary: Mo Tian Liao, a weapons forger and master who ruled the Demon Tribe, was hunted down and killed by other righteous sects in the region when he managed to forge an incredibly destructive weapon that could end the world. Before he died, he placed the only thing he loved, a white cat, into a hole in the tree behind him to protect it. The only thing he was grateful for was that he did not create a blood pact with the cat, Xiao Mao, because if he had done so, when he died, Xiao Mao would have died along with him as well.
Right before he dies, unbeknownst to him, Xiao Mao who is no simple demonic cat, wraps part of his consciousness around Mo Tian Liao, and MTL’s spirit ends up floating about for 300 years, until he finds a suitable time to return with a body made out of a special tree and its wood. The first thing he does, of course, is to find his white cat, but he’s poor, and the body he has isn’t powerful, so he joins Wo Yun Sect, the only sect that did not hunt him down that day hundreds of years ago.
There, he is chosen by Qing Tong shizun to be his direct disciple, much to the astonishment of other shizuns in the sect, and Qing Tong’s shixiongs. MTL has never seen a person as beautiful and gorgeous as his shizun, and if only he could find that cat (who’s actually his shizun, who recognizes him and protects him, even if MTL doesn’t actually need much protection).
My Thoughts: This was hilarious as well, and so romantic?!!! Qing Tong/Xiao Mao waited for MTL to come back, and the moment he came back, Qing Tong was there ready to grab him, and then before he went to sleep that night, Qing Tong thought to himself, “I’ve gotten my person back, I can sleep well now” and AHHHHH at this point they weren’t even like a couple yet? MTL ‘kidnapped’ Qing Tong when he was a young demon cat by accident because he likes pretty things (like his shizun lmao) and Qing Tong is attached to him because MTL never forced a blood pact on him, and gave him everything he wanted as a younger cat before MTL died. Gosh, a mirror in #2 and then a cat now with this one. XD

7. 破云 | Breaking the Clouds by 淮上
Summary: Three years ago, Captain Jiang Ting and his team of the Narcotics division perished in an explosion due to a wrong call of his, and he returns three years later under a new identity ready to deal with the people who set him and his team up. He’s caught in what seems to be a simple murder case almost immediately and meets Yan Xie, who’s Vice Captain and in charge of this case. Yan Xie realizes who Jiang Ting is shortly after, and begins to unravel the huge mystery surrounding the events of three years ago, and falls in love with Jiang Ting along the way as well.
My Thoughts: Okay out of the FOUR crime/detective/thriller danmei novels I’ve read, the poyun and tunhai (below) series is the one that MIRRORS actual narcotics division and undercovers the best. It has the complexity and depth of the drugs/narcotics world, and both this one and its sequel focuses a lot on the position of an undercover and mole. I liked this one a lot because there are SOOOO many twists especially in the last arc, like you honestly won’t see any of them coming until it hits you? And Yan Xie is such a confident, rich-ass narcissist, and he keeps asking Jiang Ting if he can “just touch” him ONCE lmao, he’s thick-skinned af, but that’s why he and Jiang Ting are so compatible ;-;.

8. 吞海 | Swallowing the Sea by 淮上
Summary: Sequel to Po Yun. Yu Wu is a young-looking new detective under Captain Bu Chong Hua’s narcotics team. Bu Chong Hua is Yan Xie’s cousin by actual relation, but brother in relationship because BCH’s parents died early and Yan Xie’s parents have been taking care of him mostly. He cannot stand Yu Wu, who seems to want to coast through at work and keep to a 9-5 work schedule. 
It’s only after an altercation and Yu Wu dumping his nonchalant facade to snarl at BCH that he realizes that YW is actually more interesting and mysterious than he thought, and he begins to try to get close to him, understand him. It turns out that Yu Wu is a famous undercover who nearly died a year ago during an operation, and due to various reasons, he was assigned to BCH’s team by higher ups so he can peacefully live the rest of his life out there. However, his past catches up with him quickly, and his enemies turning up forces him to rely on BCH. 
With BCH, Yu Wu’s resentment of having to be an undercover in the past and being so easily discarded by his team’s leaders, and of him being forced to be in the shadows while others can announce their achievements to the world, is slowly erased, because BCH sees him, knows him, and understands him more than anyone else.
My Thoughts: I actually liked this one better than the first one - Yu Wu is such a pouty, angry little thing?! And for good reason (there’s a bit of cannibalism in the book, not by choice when he was younger and in a poor village in Cambodia, where some militants forced survivors in the village to eat the meat of boiled corpses of other villagers, so YW is a vegetarian, like if he eats meat he gets really sick) and the twists here are even more amazing?! BCH really, really, devotes himself to YW the moment he realizes how much he likes him, doing a 180 degree turn. Instead of Yan Xie’s flamboyance, BCH is much steadier, grouchy, like an old uncle, but also looks at things even more clearly than Yan Xie does sometimes. Yu Wu is understandably bitter about what he had to go through, and BCH is the ONLY person who can calm him down, whom he listens to, which I LOVE. Some highlights:
Yu Wu grew up in a poor village and thus loves money, and he fights in underground betting rings to earn more money - The stash of hidden money he collects I think is half for his escape money, but if he happens to never need it, his dream is to donate the money to his village so they can open up a school there - ANYWAY because Yan Xie’s parents, and technically BCH’s ‘parents’ are soooooo rich right, Yan Xie’s mom shows her approval to her son-in-laws (Jiang Ting first, then Yu Wu), by giving them winter pants. It’s kind of like inside warmers, and usually meant for older ladies to wear LOLOL so Yu Wu was like staring at the pants when he finally got them and looked soooo reluctant until Jiang Ting told him it costs $6,000 AND HE WAS LIKE :333333 okie
He acts a lot like a kid?!! He likes eating like some snack but it’s really unhealthy for him, and BCH the mother hen keeps catching him in weird places like the toilet, where he’s hiding from BCH so he can eat his fave snack?! And the whole police station knows not to give YW what he wants in terms of snacks and smokes because once BCH finds out, he makes life very difficult for them HAHAHAHA

9. 穿成反派如何活命 | How to Survive as A Villain by 伊依以翼
Summary: Rich and handsome CEO Xiao Yu An finds out he has a terminal illness (cancer), and dies while he’s reading this online novel, where a king mistreats the crown prince from a neighbouring state which sent him over as hostage after losing a war, and ends up being killed by the crown prince years later (SVSSS much?!). He wakes up AS THE KING, and afraid of dying, he immediately goes about befriending the prince, Yan He Qing. Yan He Qing falls in love with Xiao Yu An while being his friend/hostage/bodyguard, and Xiao Yu An tries to avoid all the deaths he read in the book, while making sure Yan He Qing manages to find his three/four wives, including Xiao Yu An’s sister.
Of course, because Xiao Yu An showed him warmth and kindness, Yan He Qing ends up falling for him instead, and Xiao Yu An is an absolute oblivious idiot because he REALLY doesn’t realize until much later. Yan He Qing ends up declaring war on Xiao Yu An’s kingdom because he is duty bound to do so, but doesn’t hurt Xiao Yu An, wanting to keep him by his side, but YHQ’s scheming uncle drives a wedge between them, and XYA leaves, breaking YHQ’s heart.
They meet again a few years later, where XYA is training to be a physician in a small village and chances upon a severely injured YHQ. There, he realizes that it was all a misunderstanding, and that YHQ actually LIKES, LIKES him, but before they can enjoy this short period of happiness, disaster strikes again.
My Thoughts: THIS WAS really enjoyable, and with the manhua visuals, it is *chef’s kiss*. I think this transmigration version actually delved into the part where XYA is unable to change everything, and if he saves one person, someone else is destined to die, and that moral dilemma devastates him a lot. In this novel he actually transmigrates TWICE, once into the king’s body, and the second time into a neighbouring state’s prince/king’s body, who looks exactly like his modern self after. YHQ is real sweet to him istg, and I like that the epilogues are SUPER EXTENSIVE, including an arc where YHQ and XYA transmigrate back to the real world and everyone who died is alive and close to them, and gets their happy ending ;-;

Leo's ABCs
A/N: Hi I hope you’re happy to see me around -Danny
Request: Y'all I need more Leo x reader in my life! Idea: Leo knows mores code. Reader catches him tapping out cute little messages and taps back. Weird lil conversations ensue. I just really need some fire-boy fluff rn // Anything sweet with Leo qwq there's not much with him
Warnings: None that I can think of.
Words: 1,380
Tumblr media
Activities - What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?
Leo would be happy just watching you do your thing, or if it’s you the one who has free time, he would let you hang at the workshop and he’d ramble about his new projects– If both of you have some time to spare, you usually just watch movies and cuddle
Beauty - What do they admire of their s/o? What do they think is beautiful about them?
He loves the way you love. The way you treat your friends and family and how you express your feelings, he thinks it’s unique.
Comfort - How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?
Leo is an expert at rambling, he’ll talk for hours and hours if you need a distraction, if you need a break from life he’ll take you to one of his hiding spots and will let you stay there just chilling, maybe brushing your hair gently while you breath in and put your thoughts in order.
Dreams - How do they picture their future with their s/o?
Honestly, he still has a bit of trouble picturing a future, but not because he doesn’t want you in it! It’s just demigod life, you know? He prefers living in the present, and either way, time goes by so fast when you’re having fun…
Equal - Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?
I think it depends on the day. If Leo’s too distracted with a project to eat or to make plans with you, you’ll take the lead. But it’s usually a shared thing, he loves planning your outings and dates and you love making proper schedules so you can attend your duties and still have enough time to hang out together. It’s about equals <3
Fight - Would they be easy to forgive their s/o? How are they fighting?
Leo is the kind of person to walk away when he knows he’s wrong and that pisses you off, but he comes around eventually and apologizes properly. When it’s you the one who messed up, he really isn’t good keeping score about that stuff, his brain is always running so he usually forgets about your fights and treats you like nothing happened. You apologize anyway, even if he tells you it’s no big deal.
Gratitude - How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o is doing for them?
Leo is grateful even for the things he shouldn’t be lmaoo He just feels like having you in his life is enough to thank you every day.
Honesty - Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?
Sometimes he has a hard time talking about his bad feelings on the spot, but he eventually gathers the courage to talk to you about it. You have to be patient though, sometimes he won’t mention it until it’s been a month or so.
Inspiration - Did their s/o change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?
LEO KNOWS HIS VALUE!! HE KNOWS HE’S WORTHY OF LOVE!! AND YOU DID THAT!
Jealousy - Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?
Would love to say no, but he definitely gets jelous. He’s the pouty type tho, won’t yell at you or treat the other person rudely, he just sits there and grumbles under his breath until you smoother him with kisses.
Kiss - Are they a good kisser? What was the first kiss like?
He could NOT believe someone actually wanted to kiss him. Him??? on the lips??
Every time you guys kiss his brain goes !!!!!
Love Confession - How would they confess to their s/o?
I think he either blurts it out while being sleep deprived, or it’s you the one who takes the first step. But boi does he love to flirt…
Memory- (What’s their favourite memory together?)
Probably the first time you guys ever talked for more than two minutes. It was like sparks were flying, the chemistry was just THAT good.
Nicknames - What do they call their s/o?
Probably just your name in general, bc it’s his s/o name! I also think ‘Mi vida’ bc he’s that kind of guy, also sunshine bc I strongly he just likes the word
On Cloud Nine - What are they like when they are in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?
He’s such a lovesick fool, a stranger on the street could tell he’s in love. A very touchy fella, he needs to TOUCH to know it’s real (not in a icky way, just like, hand holding or stuff like that)
PDA - Are they upfront about their relationship? Do they brag with their s/o in front of others? Or are they rather shy to kiss etc. when others are watching?
He just found the love of his life and you expect him to be quiet about it? PLEASE
Quirk - Some random ability they have that’s beneficial in a relationship.
He’s really good at solving problems on the spot, once again his brain is always going fast af, you never have to worry about a mishap when he’s around. Also morse code, he taught you how to use it and now he’s always saying ‘I love you’ to you all day
Romance - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?
He’s so creative in the weirdest ways, and you love it. It makes the relationship extra interesting. Again, bc he’s a lovesick dork, he’s also a hopeless romantic. He would give you the moon if he could.
Support - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?
Mr Valdez is known in every single one of your clubs and teams bc he’s that loud dude that’s always shouting stuff about how cool you are even when you’re just standing there.
Thrill - Do they need to try out new things to spice up your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?
He’s a sucker for routines. After moving around all his life he just loves to know there’s a place he can just sit and enjoy stuff, he gets his excitement whenever he starts a new project and honestly that’s good enough, he doesn’t need another life-changing quest when he’s got you. He’ll never get tired of what you guys have
Understanding - How well do they know their partner? Are they empathetic?
Leo knows your entire schedule by heart at this point. Whenever you cry he hugs you tight against him bc he doesn’t want you to see he’s crying too. He really feels every single one of your defeats and wins as if they were his own.
Value - How important is the relationship to them? What is it’s worth in comparison to other things in their life?
YOU. ARE. HIS. LIFE. Sometimes the thought scares you, having someone who depends on you can be draining, but Leo has never put you on a tough spot, he loves you more than he loves himself but he’s considerate with your feelings to the point that he’ll give you space if you ask for it. All he wants is your happiness.
Wild Card - A random Fluff Headcanon.
When he’s especially happy he will snuggle his face on your hair and hug you close. You’re like his real-life teddy bear.
XOXO - Are they very affectionate? Do they love to kiss and cuddle?
YES.
Yearning - How will they cope when they’re missing their partner?
Poor puppy, he tries his best to hide it when he’s with others, he laughs and continues to be the life of the party, but he usually calls you by iris message every morning so he can see your face, the reunions are always worth it.
Zeal - are they willing to go to great lengths for the relationship? If so, what kind of?
Ride or die, this bastard would die for you more than once and then come back just to die again. I hate him.

Hi love! I've had this idea for a bit and I think it would be perfect in the same universe of your plank all over me one shots! Okay do you remember that interview where Conor Maynard planked Tom with the fake interviewer?? What if Tom tried to do the same thing to prank y/n but as soon as the fake interviewer walks in she immediately knows what's happening so then gives super weird answers or tries to mess with tom in all the answers she gives?? You don't have to do it if you don't want to tho!
Plank All Over Me - Prank Interview Edition
Pairing: Tom Holland x Reader
Synopsis: Tom and Connor Maynard try to prank you, but you prank then right back
Disclaimer: you don’t have to have read the others to understand, but check them out ;)
Plank All Over Me
Plank All Over Me - Yoga Edition
Plank All Over Me - Couples Tag
Masterlist
Tumblr media
“What’s going on guys? It’s Conor Maynard here and I’m joined by an old friend of mine.” Conor pointed to Tom.
“Tom Holland.” Tom smiled at the camera.
“You May have heard of him, probably not. He’s not very well known.” Conor joked.
“I know, mate. I’m so lucky you’re putting me on your channel. Could be my big break.” Tom replied.
“My other friend Josh Pieters is in the other room with Toms girlfriend, the incredibly famous and lovely Y/n L/n. If you’ve seen my video where Josh, Casper and I pranked Tom with a fake interview, you already know what’s about to go down. If you don’t, Josh has an AirPod in under his headband. We’re going to be giving him things to say and he has to say them to Y/n. We’re gonna try to really freak her out. Are you ready Tom?”
“Very ready. Y/n, I love you pretty girl but you had this coming.” Tom rubbed his hands together. 
“Looks like she’s in the room. Introduce yourself.” Conor instructed. “But make it uncomfortable.”
“Hi, I’m Josh but you can call me Josh.” Josh said with a blank stare. You vaguely recognized the boy interviewing you but you couldn’t pinpoint where he was from.
“Oh uh, hi Josh.” You laughed lightly. “I’m Y/n.”
“Tell her you had a pet called Y/n and something terrible happened to it.” Conor snickered.
“I had a fish called Y/n when I was younger.” Josh informed you.
“Aw, that’s sweet.” You smiled.
“Yeah. It was my best friend until my brother swallowed it alive.” He said with no emotion.
“Oh.” You replied, not knowing what else to say. You began to sense something was off. He was wearing a headband, for one, and he didn’t look like he normally wore them. Someone was up to something.
“Even more uncomfortable.” Tom ordered.
“I’m a big fan so it’s very nice to meet you.” Josh said. “A huge fan actually, if you know what I mean.” Josh gave you a wink and you swallowed thickly. It suddenly dawned on you where you knew him from. He was Josh Pieters, the YouTuber who pranked Tom. You’d seen a number of his prank videos with Casper Lee and Joe Sugg and had a feeling that this one would be no different. If he wanted to prank you, you’d give him a taste of his own medicine.
“Not that uncomfortable!” Tom said.
“Thank you, I appreciate that.” You answered, preparing to have a little fun.
“Be normal. Ask her about the Marvel making Eddie a girl.” Conor said.
“For those who don’t know, the character Eddie Brock, who later gets infected with the symbiote Venom, is a male in the comics. How do you feel about Marvel changing the role to be played by a woman after your audition?” Josh asked. You thought about your answer for a moment.
“I think it was a really dumb move, actually. I originally auditioned for the role of Anne, who’s Eddie Brocks girlfriend. I think they should’ve kept Eddie a boy since women are weak, useless creatures and I hate them all.” You answered matter-of-factly and Josh looked a little taken aback. You nodded as if it confirm your answer and Josh looked lost.
“Oh.” Josh said and leaned to the side as if he were listening to something you couldn’t hear.
“I’m kidding. I love that they made Eddie a girl. I was so excited when they called me and told me who I was playing.” You followed up. You didn’t want them to catch on too soon that you were messing with them. You had to dial it down.
“Ask about the Spider-Man/Venom relationship.” Conor told Josh.
“And me. Ask about me.” Tom added.
“If it fun getting to play Tom Holland’s on screen girlfriend as well as being his in real life girlfriend?” Josh asked you and you smirked. So Tom was behind this as well. Now was your time to really mess with them.
“Not really, if I’m honest.” You answered.
“What?” Conor laughed.
“What?” Tom deadpanned.
“Really?” Josh asked while stifling a laugh.
“It’s just, there are so many attractive men in the Marvel cast, Tom included don’t get me wrong.” You assured him. “I kinda wish they let me date one of them on screen since I already date Tom off screen.”
“Ask her who she’d want to date.” Tom demanded, watching you with hooded eyes.
“Who do you wish you were dating?” Josh asked you.
“Definitely Chris Evans.” You answered too quickly for Toms liking. “Oh, did you mean what character?”
“I’m gonna die. I’m actually going to perish.” Tom backed away from the microphone and covered his mouth with his hands.
“Keep going. Ask more about Tom.” Conor instructed.
“But you like working with Tom, right?” Josh tried to bring the conversation to a positive point.
“Again, not really.” You shrugged.
“Interesting.” Josh stated, silently begging for the boys to tell him what to say. No one was prepared for your answers.
“Ask why.” Conor said as Tom fanned himself in the background.
“Can you elaborate on that?” Josh asked.
“It’s just weird acting along side your boyfriend. I think he should leave the acting me to, honestly.” You smiled innocently, knowing Tom was somewhere freaking out.
“Do you think he’s bad?” Tom grabbed them microphone.
“Do you think he’s bad?” Josh repeated.
“Well, he’s very attractive. I’m sure that was a big factor in getting the part. But his American accent…”, you made a face, “not the best. Being from New York is such a big part of Peter Parker that I feel like Marvel should’ve gone with an American actor. No offense to Tom, of course. He’s great in all his other movies.”
“Wow.” Josh squeaked.
“She told me she loves my American accent.” Tom whispered, bewildered.
“Ask her about her favorite accent.” Conor tried to lighten the mood.
“Do you like British accents better?” Josh asked you.
“I’ll tell you what I like. Chris Hemsworth’s accent.” You gushed. “I think it’s the hottest thing ever.”
“Did you guys hear that?” Tom asked gravely.
“Hear what?” Conor asked him.
“My heart shattering.” Tom answered.
“Tom, it’s just an accent. It’s okay.” Conor assured his friend. Tom couldn’t even hear him anymore. He grabbed the microphone with a heavy hand.
“Ask her if she likes Australians better than the British.” He demanded.
“You think Australian accents are better than British accents?” Josh repeated Toms question.
“Is that even a question? Duh.” You laughed.
“I can’t breath.” Tom wheezed.
“I do like your accent, though.” You said, catching everyone off guard.
“She what?” Tom asked. “What?”
“Oh, thank you.” Josh said, beginning to panic.
“Where are you from?” You asked, leaning forward on your hands.
“South Africa.” Josh told you and you smiled brightly and you continued your plan.
“Wait, really? That’s so exciting. I’ve always wanted to go there.” You beamed.
“Since when?” Conor looked up at Tom.
“She’s never said anything about South Africa.” Tom said in confusion.
“It’s a beautiful place.” Josh agreed.
“I bet. England is so dreary.” You rolled your eyes. “Maybe you can take me to South Africa one day.”
“Maybe.” Josh nodded as he tried to send messages in Morse code by blinking rapidly at the camera. You smirked, knowing your plan was working.
“Change the subject, Josh. Before Tom dies.” Conor ordered.
“Ask her about the wallpaper.” Tom blurted.
“Why the wallpaper?” Conor asked.
“It’s the least romantic topic I could think of!” Tom exclaimed.
“So, this is some really nice wallpaper, wouldn’t you agree?” Josh changed the subject. This threw you off a little but you were determined to win this prank.
“I was just thinking that! You read my mind.” You said excitedly.
“That backfired.” Conor said as he watched Tom fall to the floor in agony.
“Your name is Josh right?” You asked coyly.
“Yes ma’am.” Josh answered.
“I love that name.” You complimented. “I always have.”
“Do you?” Josh’s mouth dried up.
“Totally. It’s so exotic.” You beamed. Toms head snapped up from the floor.
“Exotic? There is a white boy named Josh in every high school movie ever made.” Tom exclaimed. “Exotic compared to what? Toast?”
“Thank you. I like it too.” Josh said awkwardly, wishing the boys would give him something to say.
“It’s so much better than a white bread name like Tom. Who names their kid Tom? What is he, an apostle?” You laughed. “Josh is way cooler in my opinion. It’s like the name of a god or something.”
“A god?” Tom nearly screamed. “What would Josh be the god of?”
“Gingers.” Conor shrugged.
“Thank you.” Josh said and gave the camera a stern glare.
“Tell her about your quail.” Conor suggested.
“That’s perfect. She’ll think he’s a total weirdo! Great thinking Conor.” Tom patted his friend on the back.
“Not exactly my plan, but okay.” Connor nodded.
“Do you have any pets?” Josh began his segway.”
“I do. I have a dog named Tessa.” You answered. “She’s not really my dog, though. She’s Tom’s.”
“I know you’re an animal person. You must love her.” Josh smiled now that the prank was back on track.
“Honestly, I can’t stand her. She’s always sleeping in our bed with us and begging at the table. I’m this close to telling Tom to get rid of her.” You pinched your fingers together and watched Josh go pale.
“That was it. That was the thing that killed me.” Tom mumbled as he slumped in a chair.
“Talk about the quail!” Conor repeated in an effort to save Tom.
“I have a pet too. It’s a quail.” Josh told you proudly.
“A quail? How did you get a quail?” You asked with a smile.
“Well my friends and I bought a carton of quail eggs and put them in an incubator. Only one hatched but I’ve kept her as a pet.” Josh told you the infamous story. You’d seen the video he posted about it but decided to play dumb.
“You saved a quail? That’s amazing.” You gushed as if you’d never heard the story before.
“It was just a fun thing for YouTube but I’ve actually grown quite fond of her.” Josh said, beginning to enjoy the interview.
“That’s the mosh amazing story I’ve ever herad.” You swore. “You’re a hero. A real life hero.”
“Okay. He put a carton of eggs in a hot box. He’s not Mother Theresa.” Tom pouted.
“You and Tom should come over and meet her sometime.” Josh suggested.
“Good. Bring the conversation back to Tom.” Conor nodded.
“Yeah. I’m feeling better now.” Tom agreed.
“Tom doesn’t have time be there. It can just be you and I.” You said as you looked at him through your lashes. Josh looked panicked.
“Never mind.” Tom groaned, clenching his stomach.
“What’s your last name, Josh?” You asked as you twirled some hair around your finger.
“Pieters.” Josh informed you.
“Pieters? That’s so cute. I love the way it sounds. Can you imagine it with my name? Y/n Pieters.” You smiled. “Doesn’t that just sound effervescent?”
“It sounds lovely, Y/n.” Josh said, eyeing you strangely.
“Toms still dead but if he were alive right now, he’d be livid.” Conor sighed as he listened.
“I can hear it. And I am in fact livid.” Tom said from his newly claimed spot on the floor.
“You know who else’s last name sounds good on me? Osterfield.” You were pulling out all the guns now. “I think Y/n Osterfield sounds great. Don’t you agree?”
“Uhhh…” Josh feared for his life if he agreed.
“Don’t you dare agree.” Tom grumbled through the microphone.
“Say you like Y/n Holland best.” Conor suggested.
“That’s good. Say that.” Tom nodded.
“I think Y/n Holland sounds better than both of those.” Josh told you.
“You think?” You made a face. “I actually hate Toms last name. It doesn’t fit with anything. It’s too long.”
“Osterfield is longer.” Josh reminded you.
“I bet Osterfield is longer.” You said and winked at the camera. Tom caught the double meaning and started sweating profusely.
“Ask her if she plans to take my last name when we’re married.” Tom asked, fully panicking now.
“Are you gonna take his last name when you’re married?” Josh repeated.
“Yeah, like we’re getting married.” You laughed.
“She doesn’t want to marry me?” Tom asked, all anger draining from him. It was replaced with devastation and defeat.
“Ask her if she wants to marry Tom.” Conor said as he watched Toms fallen face carefully.
“You guys aren’t planning on getting married?” Josh asked, feeling himself beginning to sweat.
“We are.” You nodded and Tom sighed in relief. “To other people.” You added.
“She killed me and now she’s beating my corpse with a phone book.” Tom said in exasperation.
“Try to change the subject again away from marriage.” Conor pleaded for Toms sake.
“Your hair looks really nice today.” Josh blurted.
“That’s not helping!” Tom shouted.
“Thank you! I really like your hair too. I totally have a thing for gingers.” You nodded.
“Said no one ever!” Tom scoffed.
“Abandon that conversation immediately. New plan! Ask her what her favorite thing about Tom is.” Conor shrugged.
“Speaking of Tom, whats your favorite thing about him?” Josh asked, ignoring the insult from Tom.
“My favorite thing about Tom? That’s easy.” You smiled and Tom did too. “He always puts the toilet seat down after he’s done. I hate when boys leave it up. So, probably that.”
“Her favorite thing about me is how I put the toilet seat down?” Tom asked with a blank stare.
“Ask her something else about him. He’s dying, Josh. He’s on his last leg.” Conor begged.
“Finish this sentence: my boyfriend gives the best…” Josh began.
“Kisses.” You gushed. Josh looked at the camera for approval and he heard Tom sigh happily into the microphone. “Just kidding, he gives the best directions. He’s really good at giving people directions. His kisses are lack luster, but I’m sure that doesn’t surprise anyone.”
“Ask her what in the the absolutely, positively, burning, bloody hell that meant?” Tom quipped.
“Why not?” Josh asked you.
“Do I have to say it?” You asked.
“Make her say it.” Tom ordered.
“Yes.” Josh nodded.
“No lips.” You shrugged.
“Can’t argue with her on that one, mate.” Conor told Tom.
“Can you get her to say one nice thing about me before my ghost ascends into heaven?” Tom sighed in defeat.
“What do you love about him? There must be something, right? Why else would you be together?” Josh asked you. You decided it was time to let up.
“There is something I love about Tom.” You smiled dreamily.
“Thank God.” Tom said, leaning forward to hear you clearly.
“Finally.” Conor after.
“Really? What is it?” Josh asked.
“What I really, truly love about Tom,” you smiled at the camera, “is how he thinks he can prank me better than I can prank him.”
“What?” Josh laughed as he realized you’d be toying with him.
“Wait, what?” Tom stuttered.
“What?” Conor asked at the 50th turn the video had taken.
“Come on, Josh. I smelt BS as soon as I walked in here.” You declared. “You think I haven’t seen Conners video where you pranked Tom exactly like this? You boys must think I’m dumb.”
“Wait a minute, she what? What?” Tom tried to wrap his head around what he was hearing.
“Would you look at that.” Conor said, dumbfounded.
“You knew it was a prank and you let us believe we were pranking you this entire time?” Josh asked, not bothering to hide how impressed he was.
“Yup.” You popped the p.
“Come on.” Tom pulled Connor out of the room and ran to where you and Josh were. You burst out laughing when you saw Toms red face.
“Ha! I knew I’d get you.” You clapped as you pulled Tom into a hug. “You should’ve known better than to challenge me. You know they call me Prank Sinatra.”
“No one calls you that.” He mumbled as his cheeks flamed up in embarrassment that you’d gotten him so good.
“Modern day Prank Ocean.” You shrugged smugly.
“How did you know it was a prank?” Conor asked you.
“I watch you and Josh all the time. I know a prank when I see one. I got you guy so good, thinking I liked the name Josh and all that.” You said triumphantly.
“Hey.” Josh warned.
“Sorry.” You apologized.
“So all your answers were…” Tom began.
“Complete and utter lies?” You finished. “Why yes, yes they were. Every last one.”
“You made all that up? All that stuff about my accent and not liking to work with me?” He asked hopefully, needing to hear you confirm it.
“Obviously! When do I ever say “effervescent”? You should’ve known I was only joking, lover.” You assured him as you pressed a kiss to his lips. “I’d never say that stuff. I love your accent and I love working with you.
“And the marriage stuff?” He said softly. You knew you took it a little too far with that one.
“If you want that to happen, you know what to do.” You shrugged casually and he blushed.
“I cannot believe you pranked us this badly. I feel so defeated.” Conor sighed.
“You shouldn’t have challenged the queen of pranks.” You told him as Tom presses kissed of relief to your cheek.
“Wait, what about what you said about wanting to date Chris Evans?” He remembered.
“Thanks for watching everybody! Bye!” You said to the camera before running out of the room.
“Wait! You didn’t answer my question!” Tom said as he ran after you.
“Don’t forget to subscribe!” You shouted from the hallway.
“What she said.” Conor smiled again the camera before turning it off.

Persona 5 Royal Playthrough pt3
I ended up going through two Palaces before I could update y’all. Oh well.
...Yeah, no, quit calling me Miss Special Snowflake's boyfriend. It's not happening.
Ryuji, Morgana, and Yusuke having a conversation in the laundromat: "It's like he's our mom," says Ryuji... the mom friend.
Every time Morgana is like "I have to turn into a human so no one else can have Lady Ann!" then expects no one else to hear him makes me laugh. Like, bitch, no.
I have the restaurant in my Thieves Den 'cause I like it. Yusuke, Ryuji, and Morgana are there. They're so precious.
I got a three in a row Tycoon on cutthroat!!!
Ryuji and Ann just keep going "Shoulda figured" and other versions of the statement every time I win.
Ann just rejected Morgana's feelings HARD. I am happy.
Ryuji is too good, honestly. Why would anyone not like him? He's... He's always trying to build the team up, make them proud of themselves and what they've done. I will admit that he has his moments of being not a great human, but they're teenagers who were given absurd powers, so honestly, can you blame them?
I didn't know darts was an actual minigame! There's so many minigames. I'm so happy.
I don't like Akechi. I don't know why some people do. Like, his death scene was a bit... too late for a redemption for me, right after he tried to kill Joker, several times. His pain is understandable, but still... I can't.
Their "two sides of the same coin" also doesn't seem particularly fair. It's totally uneven in everything but color schemes.
Guys, GUYS, please, PLEASE decide whether you're going to react to my teasing or not.
"We don't have to deal with them directly," Ryuji says joyfully about the mafia. Oh you sweet, sweet, innocent child, if only you knew what I do.
I literally can't play this game around anyone else because I tend to yell "BABY!" to Ryuji, Ann, and Yusuke and "BITCH" or "FUCKER" to... a rather long list of villains in this game... and Makoto.
I can literally feel Yusuke's anxiety about his painting when you take him to Leblanc to see Sayuri.
How can you say Yusuke isn't gay when he says everything I do is beautiful?
I love Ryuji's 9th social link. It's LITERALLY written like a confession scene. This also means I kinda hate it because... I can't date him.
Also... PRETTY BOY RYUJI PRETTY BOY RYUJI PRETTY BOY RYUJI
I actually kinda thought that the new scene for Ryuji being a crossdresser is kinda funny??? Is this bad??? I wanna see him in a dress, tho. I gotta agree, he'd be a natural. Not the like, painfully obviously not taking it seriously from the dancing game, though.
Though I do think it's valid that he freaks out when two strange adults come up to him and try to take him somewhere, especially in a place known for being shady, and at night.
...When Ryuji complains about it, I do feel bad about ditching him. Then again, I blame the cat.
Ryuji may be my ideal type on paper, but I'm also highly attracted to Yusuke and this is so totally unfair.
*softly chanting* butlers butlers butlers butlers
Don't mind me just... *makes meticulous plot to avoid having Makoto join the team that i may or may not write a fanfic about*
Makoto is one dumbass bitch. Like, honestly, there's nothing she does that's in any way remotely smart.
...I thought I'd just skip Makoto's scenes until she became relevant, but here I am, still skipping her scenes. Does that mean she’s still irreleveant?
"Witch" I suggest, and Makoto complains! "Would you prefer "Bitch"? I can use that too.
I put Yusuke on the team in the middle of the palace through settings, replacing Morgana, who had been standing right behind me. Which made Yusuke stand right behind me. It looked like he was holding onto my waist and standing uncomfortably close. Bro, babe, I love you, but not in front of my boyfriend and girlfriend!
Just accept the compliment, guys, I'm not going to compliment Queen.
...Opening chests with Ann or Ryuji is just so sweet because they're so affectionate and touchy feely. Especially Ryuji.
Math. Fucking. Sucks. I should not have to use math in a game. I hate this. Obviously it's the Palace Makoto comes in that this happened.
Well, I finished the Palace in a day. I love the feeling. But it was getting close there. Joker and Yusuke were down to no spells...
...Yoshizawa hasn't showed up yet. When is she getting shoehorned in?
WHY IS THE VELVET ROOM RED!?
My very first playthrough I didn't execute a single execution except for the first one we have to do. It  really screwed me over my second playthrough...
...I broke the electric chair. That's certainly something that happened.
147 games of Tycoon later and I've only been a beggar 31 times in total, versus the pure thirty wins in just Cutthroat.
They're in their summer uniforms and it makes make miss warmer weather already. It's fucking snowing outside. Grrrr.
Beat Kaneshiro! ...Wasn't a fan of his new boss battle. I'm even playing on safe mode! But whatever.
Makoto is a DISASTER at Tycoon. She exclusively got beggar all three times I played with her!
...RYUJI YOU CAN'T SAY SHIT LIKE THAT AND NOT LET ME DATE YOU.
Ann, sweeties, baby, you're doing so well.
She confessed to me, then in the call afterwards it was basically insinuated I proposed... WHICH IS LIKE FUCK YEAH 'CAUSE SHE ACCEPTED IT.
It makes me think of the future conversation where they're talking about marriage.
Anyway, if you haven't noticed, l love Ann.
My next playthrough I'm not gong to date her, though. I'm a completionist and I want ALL of the possible awards. But... I refuse to cheat on Ann. So I'll date everyone else then just hang with Ryuji... despite how cringy some of the date things are.
...If Akechi wasn't, you know EVIL and tried to KILL ME, SEVERAL TIMES, I might, MIGHT, like him. But in truth, I think that's really just the Persona 5: Revival talking. We get... into some stuff during that.
I know that either Atlus or the translators know EXACTLY what goes on in the Persona fandom because otherwise "He's too pretty to be wrong" would not be an option when talking to the newspaper girl about Akechi. I have to agree with her that his looks aren't really, you know, awesome enough for that.
Also, I read it as "He's too petty to be wrong" at first and I think that's an accurate sum of his character.
YO AKECHI-FUCK I HAVE NO NEED TO SEE YOUR ASS LIKE THAT WHEN I HAVE BOTH A BF AND AND GF.
...fucker fucking giving me shit about my fake glasses...
If you COULD date the boy out of mod, Akechi would definitely be the one they were pushing you to date. Like Makoto. Or Yoshizawa.
But hey, at least I get to not be nice to him.
I remember seeing this picture where Ann, Ryuji, and Joker kept going to the movies together and seeing 3D movies, and Joker couldn't wear the 3D glasses properly because of his own. I keep imagining that picture during this event with Caroline and Justine.
You know what? Some people call Joker a loli lover because of them, but nope! He's just adopted two more siblings. That is my stance on it.
FUcking
Fucker
WHAT THE FRRRRRRRR
FUCK YOU ATULS OR TRANSLATORS OR WHATEVER
APHRODITE AND MARS ARE FROM TWO DIFFERENT MYTHOS. Aphrodite is GREEK, Mars is ROMAN. Their reversed are VENUS and ARES. USE ONE OR THE OTHER PEOPLE.
I get very pissed about this, and it's worse with Hades.
7/4 is the day I am screaming at, if you were wondering.
My dad asked me if the other students think Joker's stupid because every time I answer a question right they get all surprised.
I don't really like Makoto, as I'm sure you've noticed, but she was super nice about Ryuji's special move idea. And that put her ahead of Akechi in my book.
TESTS ARE NERVE WRACKING EVEN WHEN THEY'RE FICTIONAL
Yusuke and Ryuji are good boys, the best boys. And they're so awesome about their special move.
AND RYUJI OFFERED MONEY FOR YUSUKE'S FOOD. And implied that he did it before???? Ryuji, you best boy.
This boys' outing DOES make me happy, though. Like, insanely happy. Dunno why.
Maybe because Joker gets to be so flipping cheesy.
...fuck you, Yoshizawa.
HONESTLY WHAT THE EVER LOVING--- Grr. Too many choices while with her. Too many. OOC Joker when with her. 0/10.
I LOVE THE FESTIVAL PHOTO
And you know, it's really hard to choose between Lala-chan and Ann, but... GONNA TAKE ANN ON A DATE
Got her some flowers. Lets see if we can give them to her this time!
"Such a good FRIEND." Babe, we're DATING. For like, TWO WEEKS NOW.
AND I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO GIVE HER FLOWERS
Ann called Yusuke a pretty boy, but then she's missing out on the REAL pretty boy, Pretty Boy Ryuji.
Ryuji, why're you so worried about other girls when you've got ME?
"I like the shade." "What are you, moss!?" Oh, admit it, Ryuji, I'm growing on you.
Cargona. Snrk. Gods, I love you, Ryuji.
Dome town with Ryuji! "Isn't it all couples?" That's the point!
I COULD GIVE RYUJI THE ROSES!?
Sadly, I bought those for Ann. Ryuji, you get the noodles.
AND HE FUCKING LOVED IT.
"It feels like I really captured Ryuji's heart!" FUCK YEAH I DID
Gonna give Yusuke the bracelet when I get the chance.
Why is everyone color coded in the chat room? Kawakami, Akechi, Mishima, and the reporter are all ORANGE. What's the point? Well, Akechi's more of a golden orange, but close enough.
While Mishima is not my first choice for a date, he's definitely not my last.
...But the boy really needs some fucking sleep. He's not drawn with the bags under his eyes, but I can see them!
It's not fair that they give Akechi a kicked puppy sprite. I'm... goddamnit, they're trying to make me not hate him.
When Makoto doesn't know something, I'm brought great joy.
NO DAD MAKOTO IS NOT MY GIRLFRIEND ANN IS AND SHE IS LITERALLY R I G H T T H E R E
First day in Futaba's Palace! I've gotta say, this is my second favorite palace. Kamoshida, Futaba, Madarame, Sae, Okumura, Shido, Kaneshiro, Holy Grail. In that order. I HATE Kaneshiro's place and dealing with the Holy Grail. But whatevs, man. I love this game. (Vanilla, at least, this one is still on the fence)
I found out a cool little thing. On the uphill sand slopes in the town (don't know about anywhere else) if you're running and turn back quickly, Joker will do a little animation to steady himself. It was cool and made it seem, I dunno, more human? Anyway, while I was admiring this, Ryuji and Yusuke just stood at the top of the slope and Ann followed me while I was running. Best girlfriend ever.
Kin-Ki is looking pretty kin-ky if you know what I'm sayin'
Please don't murder me because I do terrible puns.
*we fall through the trap door* *Ryuji starts screaming* Same, baby, same.
...Makoto is seriously annoying. Like, she's got no business acting as familiar with Futaba's situation. The one who WOULD be the most familiar is Yusuke, and I'm glad he recognizes that. It's not the exact same, none of their stories are after all, but I feel like those two get each other better than even Ryuji and Joker understand each other.
Yusuke and Ryuji's special attack is THE BEST
Ryuji and Joker getting up close and personal in the shadows. All those fanfics coming true, man.
I thought Futaba was sloth, not wrath? Why are her Will Seeds called Wrath?
Beat it in one day! It's so satisfying to watch all those achievements when I leave the palace.
You know, I'm thinking of wearing the Christmas outfits for the final battle. Just to be kinda funny.
Spending a relaxing day with Yusuke after going through Futaba's Palace... kinda want to take him to the bathhouse to check out that new scene, but I also REALLY wanna feed the boy... gonna feed the boy.
Apparently I can only make 'decent curry.' Which is fine. Because "I" can't make curry at all. Joker, you've done much better than I.
THE DATE CHANGE SCREEN HAD A RAINBOW AND RYUJI WAS COMING OVER ON THE SAME DAY FUCK YEAH MY BISEXUAL BABY
...Broooooo, the way you talk about your manga is how I talk right before I start shipping.
Took him to the bathhouse, 'cause I don't gotta worry about Mama Sakamoto feeding him.
...Can I take Ann to the bathhouse?
Asked Ryuji to move in. He was all up for the idea until he remembered that I live in an attic.
I'm Charismatic now!
...I was all hoping Ann would stop by but then Akechi asked me out. Laaaaaaaame.
Ryuji's smile is so fucking cute.
...I say we just be honest, and everyone's so fucking stupid about it until Makoto explains it. This pisses me off. They're not that dumb... At least, they weren't until Makoto showed up.
Futaba's hiding in the closet. ...I've spent too many weeks making jokes about closets to not have a joke about it.
Really, Yusuke? You see those books and think she can't understand?
...Wait, that sassy tone of voice... You were TRYING to pull a reaction of her. I knew I shipped those two for a reason. OTP and BroTP. Doesn't matter, they're both awesome.
I love you Ann, but I don't think your situations were the same at all. It's not like both are valid and bad, but... different.
Joker is SO fast compared to the others, especially when he's speeding.
What the...
Holy fuck...
JOKER IS TOO EFFING COOL
THAT MOVE TO GET FROM THE ENTRANCE TO TO TREASURE DOOR? Awesome!
Damn, Joker has my heart too.
I kinda wish we could see Futaba's costumes in her Persona. That would be pretty neat.
The moment right before Wakaba appears is so aesthetically pleasing.
...Futaba being happy is almost enough for me to accept Maruki's offer, and I haven't gotten there yet.
Ryuji and Ann keep smacking each other out of their ailments. Like, you guys just love each other so much! It's awesome.
Joker has lackluster responses to Wakaba... I'm hoping that isn't one of those "Answer these wrong and you break her!" things... Not that I think I was, but still.
I liked Futaba's new animation for when she defied her mother.
I wish the anime looked more the cutscenes. I'm trying to rewatch the anime so I can pinpoint specific moments for future editing purposes, but it's kinda painful.
1- This is the SECOND TIME you've landed on Yusuke while running from trouble.
2- YUSUKE LET GO OF MY GIRL
No Makoto, I don't want to go see Futaba with you! I can go see her myself.
So, I like Takemi's new voice with her lines during this scene.
Sure, she collapses every so often and sleeps for a while. Stays like that for a few days. Sorry that I put her into a coma for a month, Boss...
SHE LOOKS SO CUTE WITHOUT GLASSES
Guys, we have a month. Stop worrying.
THE TWINS ARE SO CUTE WHILE HANGING ONTO THE BENCH PRESS
Damn, Joker's dying to the amusement of two little girls.
I'm kinda disappointed I didn't get results for all that training. But I liked the scene.
Yusuke just casually be lugging bigass paintings around.
Taking the girls to the church may have been one of the funnier moments. These cement them as Joker's little sisters. With Futaba. Damn, Joker, you got no brothers.
Yusuke promises to come by every day and we can tell him to take his clothes off. ATLUS, you have some EXPLAINING to DO.
..And Yusuke took it and ran with it. My sweet summer child, I don't think I could handle you in as little as possible on the day to day.
"The heat induced delirium made me think outside the box." Same.
Guts takes sooooooooooooo long to level up.
"Punish me more" he says, as if Takemi won't do it.
"Good god. Well, none of my medicine can cure THAT." AT LEAST WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE
BATHHOUSE WITH YUSUKE
Awe, he had fun. :)

I've been thinking of this hc for quite some time now and I got no one to share this with but what if Mikasa, a 30 year old rich woman meets a 24 year old photographer Eren. Mikasa will be so filthy rich and she owns a massive ass company, she's in her 30's but never had the time to explore in her youth bc of her responsibilities so I guess she's single since birth. Bc she inherited the company, all her life is all abt her work. Eren however, is a 24 year old guy drowning in student loans but is a very passionate young man in terms of his career. He's also a bit of a playboy bc c'mon it's Eren and he looks like adonis himself. They will meet bc Eren will be tasked as a videgrapher bc he's the only available guy in the small tv newsroom he's been working at (idk how to explain but he's a photographer and a cameraman??? idk i just.. whatever) okay so as always, he'll get head over heels in love with this smart, beautiful, charming, and kind ceo of a company and I guess that's where their story starts
oh and as a side note as soon as they get together Eren will definitely teach her everything and when I say everything it's all the rated smut things (」゚ロ゚)」
HELLO ANON!! HERE WE LOVE HEADCANONS SO SHARE THEM ALL!!! Okay so I have some thoughts, lol! The whole time I was like 👀👀 Sugar Mikasa, Sugar Mikasa!! But lol r u set in stone about this photographer thing tho cuz I was like what if Eren was her assistant! Like they met because Eren is crazy driven and he's doing a Uni Co-Op and he spends a summer or a few semesters working at this company and he's so good they start letting him work with the company's CEO, Mikasa Ackerman and of course he's thrilled!!!
And of course he's great at his job, Mikasa is like omg how have I never had a useful assistant in my life wtf?? Eren is crazy, colour codes all her files etc, he's like Donna to Mikasa's Harvey from Suits, idk if u have watched lol! As soon as he starts immediately Eren is like gobsmacked by how young and beautiful she is, he thought he'd be helping out some old crone in his fifties who got the company out of nepotism with a beard and a penchant for women half his age. Of course, he gets beautiful, driven, smart Mikasa instead and he falls in love on the spot, he thinks she's amazing personally and professionally, and Mikasa is kind of like omg why is my assistant hot????
And she'd never make a move on him bc she's a good girl but she's a woman too and Eren is always slipping, flirting with her, slipping little innuendos in there, offering to give her foot massages and the works. It's nothing overtly sexual but she always gets hot, has to make up random tasks for him to so he'll leave her alone and she can cool down. This goes on for a while, just TENSION!! And of course she has other men her age after her, she's not interested in any of them they just want her because she's rich and beautiful and they hope to run the company while they keep her pregnant which isn't something she's interested in. And it pisses Eren off every time he has to let these jackasses into her office. Bc he wants her so bad, and it probably all culminates at a work Christmas party or something for the whole company, Mikasa looking radiant in a red sparkly floor length dress and Eren can't take his eyes off her, but she came with a date so he just has to stew.
But then he finds her later in the night when everyone is drunk and either leaving or drinking more, she's in the corner of the hallway next to the bathroom crying, he found her bc he heard sobs and he comforts her bc she's definitely drunk and upset. he finds out her date left her bc apparently she's too frigid and she wouldn't let him fuck her in the bathroom, and apparently he felt emasculated by her success blah blah and Eren is like oh shit. Comforts her, takes her back to his house to sleep it off bc he's not taking her to hers. He's a sweet boy, lets her snuggle him on the couch and bc she's drunk she goes for it, doesn't care if its inappropriate to snuggle with her assistant. She confesses so much to him over wine and cries into his arms and he finds out his beloved CEO is a virgin, at thirty, never had a serious boyfriend, it's all her family trying to set her up with assholes because they worry about her. And they think she's 'frigid' bc she's nervous and doesn't know what to do, doesn't WANT to do anything much, she just wants a few kisses to start out, is that so much to ask, some gentle easing into it, not just immediate sex. She cries bc she's never going to have a solid relationship and Eren is just sitting there like 😭 I love u!! 😭😭
If we're thinking photographer tho maybe he could be photographing her for a business magazine like Forbes or something bc she's like a really young CEO or something??

That one.
Tumblr media
Monsta X (Wonho Maifia Au)
Part1 / Part2 / Part3 /…
A/N: Enjoy and sorry for any mistakes made. :*
Word count:  2,489
Warnings: Blood, talk of death, cussing
                       —————————————————————
 After almost a full 22 hour sleep, you found yourself back in your comfortable and soft bed. This being the 3rd day on this new cover, you still couldn’t get used to the feeling of soft bedding. All these years living with the bare minimum had taken a toll on your perception. 
  It was morning, judging from the fresh smell outside and the particular animals singing. Your job sunk into your mind hours ago, you knew you were a shield and a weapon. Being outside that rat hole was a present enough.Your kind knew that life wasn’t supposed to be that long anyways ,so even this was heaven enough. One of your new self-created priorities was checking any layer of the Earth around the mansion. Head count of the workers, the dogs, vehicles. The moment something smelled, looked or felt wrong you would have to immediately informed your boss ,or in dire situations take matters in your own hands. Living by the rules saved your tail quite a bit of times, doing it now would most definitely prolong your time as well.
  There was a sudden knock on the door and the familiar sent of the maid stepped inside your room. She was a happy go lucky person to the point you wondered if she knew her workplace or employer. Yet it felt like a breath of fresh air, after the yelling you were used to hearing ,first thing after opening your eyes.
“Can I come in?” her eyes landed on your lotus pose on the bed, hands on your knees and eyelids covering your beautiful eyes
“Yes.” your body sprung out of the state it was in and into something more common for a curious child. She closed the wooden door behind herself and placed two covered hangers onto the end of the bed.
“It’s not time for breakfast yet, but I thought that maybe if by chance you were awake, you would want to explore the mansion a bit.” it made sense for her to carry clothes, you didn’t have any after all. “Oh my.”she gasped, slapping her forehead a bit too aggressively  “It is probably very rude and disgraceful for me to assume that you want to do that. Damn it I make it sound like you are some kind of dog marking its territory.” her manner of panic was something you didn’t expect, making you giggle.
“It’s ok. I kind of am doing it, but more in the sense of security and making sure only authorized personnel can step in and out of here.” as you were talking your gaze wandered over to the hangers still laying on your bed.
“I see you eyeing these.” she smiled at you “I brought you some of my old clothes if you don’t mind. I thought some of these would look lovely on you, plus I don’t wear them anymore.”
“Thank you so much.” with her permission you jumped onto them expecting the nice new gift you received from the maid. They were actually really nice and seemed to fit you like a glove.
“You are welcome honey. I will leave them here for you. Breakfast is at 7am,a bit early I know, but the boss likes it at those times. Until then you are pretty much free to roam around the mansion and enjoy yourself. “ she bowed slightly and left the room. As quick as humanly possible ,you found yourself in the clothes and out on the balcony. 
  Your eyes closed slowly and you took a deep breath in. The morning was a bit humid but pleasantly touching the skin on your face. The wind was gentle and the animals were already enjoying their day. Placing your hands on the railing, you stood up and just let yourself fall forward from the 2nd-3rd floor of this huge building. It almost felt like you were flying, as you grabbed onto a branch and swung on top of it. Reopening your eyes, you tied your hair up and started your first ever patrol of your new living space. 
  Making sure to take mental notes of everyone and everything, you learned most of the outer details of this place. The gate had one keeper and he seemed around your age, you didn’t have any rules that Wonho set for you.Thinking that it was ok, you decided to swing by and check on this new figure that intrigued you. 
“You shouldn’t be sleeping on the job you know.” your voice chocked the boy up as he was yawing and trying to lean back and have a quick power nap.
“W-who are you!” he pulled out his gun from the holster on his left side
“That is a bit dangerous to point around.” with your fingers you flicked the weapon out of his hand and he panicked 
“State your name or I will shoot!!!” yet his slow reaction registered the missing gun after he had said that.
“Ok ok.You got me there.” you placed your hands above your head, looking down at him from the big tree you found next to his post 
“Don’t make me repeat myself! State your name !” he yelled out even tho he hand no means of protecting himself 
“Names Y/N, nice to meet you.” you reached out to shake his hand from the seemingly high place “I am new here. I was ummm...” your eyes wandered towards the sky as you were thinking of a way to put your appointment.
“Wait...” the boy seemed to calm down a bit “You don’t look normal to me.”
“That is a bit rude you know.”
“Says the person that is on a tree and flung my gun with a finger.”
“True.” nodding with an agreement ,showing the boy that you were harmful to him at the current time
“Are you possibly the code red that boss ‘adopted’ ?” 
“Hm? Adopted sound like he went to a shelter and picked me up. I am not a dog or a stray cat.”
“Well you seem to be locked up in cages and sold to anyone that needs dirty work done, so I mean doesn’t it look like that to you?You get a home and all that jazz.” the smile whipped itself off your face. Wonho and his members were different from the people you had met so far, making you think that maybe things had changed but yet again you were proven wrong. Humans wanted to be on top and rule with power.That feel of being the greatest was something any and every person wanted to create in themselves, by depreciating anything and everything. Even the things standing tall above them.
  Your eyes went dark again, suddenly losing the spark that had ignited inside your heart. Without a word, you stood up and flew away, leaving him with no feeling of remorse. Being different wasn’t wrong, but they always made it something it never was.
  Finding your way back to the mansion, you were met with the same maid.
“Hey sweetie, welcome back.” she was fixing your bed for you “Did you enjoy your morning walk?” her body turned towards you the moment she heard the almost emotionless answer “Is everything ok?” you nodded “Ok...breakfast is ready. Boss is waiting for you downstairs.”
  Silently like a ghost through the halls, you walked to the dinning hall and said good morning to Wonho. His smile disappeared as well the moment he saw you.
“What happened? Didn’t you sleep well?” taking your seat next to him, you explained that all was well. “Are you sure?” in the corner of his eye he saw the maid peeking into the room. Intrigued by her boldness, he decided to check on the situation. The woman was focused on you for too long to notice how quick and silently Wonho crept up on her.
“Do you need something?” her body jolted as if electricity went through it
“No sir!” her panicked figure bowed down in the face of a higher standing person 
“We don’t lie here.” his voice was deep and stern 
“I was worried about Miss Y/N.” 
“What about her.” Wonho’s eyes took a quick glance over to you
“I don’t know if something happened, but she seems different from this morning.”
“How so?”
“When I walked in to give her some clothes she looked well rested and cheerful. Right before breakfast I went to call her, but she was still on her walk, so I waited. When she came back her expression was almost that of when she first arrived days ago. I was just worried, i didn’t mean to snoop around sir!” her voice pitched at the end of the sentence 
“Raise your head.” his fingers pushed her up a bit “I also noticed something. Did she tell you where she went or where she was planning to go on her walk?” the maid shook her head “I want you to gather everyone that was out side in that time span.” 
“Yes Boss.” with a quick bow the woman ran to finish the job she was given. In the back of her mind he felt a bit strange with the interest he had towards you, but she didn’t question it.
 Calmly Wonho made his was back to his seat and leaned towards you, noticing the food still on your plate. “I told you you can eat without my permission.”
“I know, but the rules say I sh-” your words got pushed back by the piece of food Wonho pulled up to your lips.
“You live in MY house, so you should follow MY rules and they say you eat when you are hungry and when you want to eat. “ his head leaned forward as he kept eye contact with you, raising his brows up. You nodded, trying to focus on something else ,since he was this close to you. 
“Tell me what happened today.” his words caught you off guard, but you kept looking forward denying “ Ok, have it your way then sweetie.” he sat back down , his voice deep and scary. Something you heard only once come out of his mouth “Bring them in!”
  The doors of the dinning hall flung open with a gust of wind introducing the new guests. They marched in like a well trained army and stopped exactly at the end of the long table, letting Wonho stare needles into each one of them.
“It’s a good morning, isn’t it?” he stood up, walking over to one of the windows. Opening it up “ The breeze is wonderful.” he looked at them as they answered in unison 
“YES SIR! WONDERFUL MORNING!”
“Well, as it seems not for all us.” he cut them off just at the end, his voice burning in their ears “Do you see this little kitten here?” he stepped slowly but dominantly towards you. He placed his hand under your chin, before patting you on the head ,showing love and ownership “ She slept well, had a wonderful few days in her new home.”Wonho swung his arms to show off the room “But.” they dropped to his side, as his eyes once more turned into dark abysses “Can any of you tell me why she isn’t laughing or smiling, or as a matter of fact talking cheerfully to me?”
  They all proceeded to shake their heads ,whiles trembling from the sheer fear he generated in each one of them. “Oh don’t be scared. You know how our big home works. If you didn’t do anything wrong, stay tall and proud.”Upon hearing the situation the maids and workers lifted up their heads knowing ,they did nothing wrong to anger him. But the boy in the middle started shaking more and more. He tried to look calm, but it didn’t work, did it.
“Now!” he shivered, jolting at his voice “Since she is just the purest little thing, the little riding hood didn’t want to tell the big bad wolf who messed with her morning. So I have to sniff them out and looky what we have here.” his finger stopped on the kid “Why so scared boy? Got something to hide?”
“N-No sir.”
“Oh, stuttering too. I don’t like that, no one works here and lies to me.” The other maids looked at him with a cold stare, annoyed 
“Speak or take it to the grave!” they just wanted to go back to work, plus for the people here seeing blood was like a good morning greeting.
“I-I didn’t do anything!” he screamed out and pointed at you “That thing just  came to me and even attacked me! She left me defenseless! I just had a talk with her!”
“Is that true kitty? Did you attack him?” his eyes softened once he looked at you
“I flung the gun out of his hands.” you said immediately 
“SEE!” the boy yelled out again
“Why was the gun in your hand to begin with?”
“I..umm.” the air stopped around him
“You said you didn’t do anything , yet you just said you talked to her? Isn’t that ‘doing’ something?” Wonho clicked his tongue a few times “What did you two talk about?”
“I just asked her who she was like I am supposed to!” 
“Oh really? Let’s listen in then, shall we?” a maid brought in a small laptop from which everyone could hear the conversation. Once it stopped, there was a dead silence in the room. “Thing...?Cage...? Sold....?” Wonho’s head was hanging low, looking at the table. The workers knew what was going on and just waiting for him to blow up. His fingers ran over the fork next to him, before he jabbed it into the wood of the table with a loud sound. “Who gave YOU permission to speak to her like that?!” He got up, but you grabbed his arm. He sighed harshly , running his hand through his hair ,flinging it back with his head. 
“You know what kid? I liked your half assed confidence. “ the boy looked as confused as everyone else was “ How about you move from the gate and start spending more time in the garden? “
“Yes sir!” he laughed out, having been saved. With a bit of power he looked at you proud ,thinking he proved his point to you 
“Y/N likes the flowers there, but they seem to be withering. How would you like to make sure those plants grow nice and pretty for my little kitten?”
“THANK YOU SIR!” he bowed down “I would gladly do it even if I don’t have much experience !” 
“Oh don’t worry about that.” Wonho pulled your chair back, motioning you that you were moving to another room. You walked out first “I don’t think you will need much experience being a fertilizer.” he grinned as he closed the door ,grabbing a hold on the oh so sweet victory the conversation was leading up to.

Ok my No Nuance November hot takes for the Ninjago fandom
Nia has an undercut. Bob or ponytail doesn't matter, undercut.
Her fashion sense is just as awful as Kai's. Just a bit more practical. When she's not dressing like the manic pixie villain in a 90s flick with borderline racist Japanese esthetics then she's walking around in athlesure ware and chunky combat boots.
I'm not all here for the Wu hate but he do be an asshole tho. He's not meant to be a father figure. More like a football coach he's mean and commanding. Dareth is the designated team dad. He's the one who brings them snacks and pats them on the back and tells them how badass they were out there.
Speaking of parents, jay's adopted Nia the second they met her. Even before they knew about jay's crush. Nia calls Mrs. Walker mom and they go on girls trios together and she calls her more than Jay does.
They also don't on Kai like a son but he's a little less receptive to it. It's good for him tho.
Lloyd has two different personalities a lot like Superman does. There's Lloyd and then there's the green ninja. He's usually goofy and soft and defers to nia or cole on most decisions until it's business time and he goes all green ninja. The others fall in line behind him just as quickly.
Cole is team big brother. I know Kai's gone all big brother on Lloyd and I respect that but cole is team big brother. Need someone to vent to? Cole. Need help with homework? Cole. Hugs? Cole. Superior taste in music? Cole. He seriously gives the best hugs.
Nia and Kai function pretty well independently but when they do get together they are scarily in tune. They communicate almost completely non verbally, unless their bickering. Which is terrifying in a fight and confirming domestically. It's not uncommon for her to trudge into the game room early in the morning after a bad night and just curl up against his shoulder.
Also, they do classic sibling shit like stand in the doorway and stare at eachother for no reason other than to be annoying. Sometimes he just opens her bedroom door when he walks by for no reason. They also make up none verbally. They have a blowout fight over dishes that ends with the kitchen curtains on fire and an hour later kai's replaced the curtains and Nia passes him a fucking code red she ran into town for. It makes no sense to the other ninja since their only children.
Lloyd is an alt kid. And he's a bit androgynous. You cannot tell me that boy hasn't worn a fishnet top to the grocery store. Him and Nia are alt fashion disasters together and it's beautiful. So much eyeliner, so many safety pins.
Nia is way closer to the guys after she starts her training. There's no reason for her to not be just as integrated into their schedule just because she's a girl. They've all definitely passed out on mats together. They share a stalled co-ed bathroom in the dojo so you know they're all leaning half asleep over the sink in the mornings brushing their teeth. The boys are fascinated with her hair routine.
They definitely all slept in a ninja pile in the never-realm. I don't care about the bunk beds its too cold for them to sleep separately. They all fight over Kai, and Nia wins because that's her big brother and she pulls rank.
Kai calls Nia mom patronizingly when she nags. It gets to point that all the ninja start doing it except Jay mostly because he doesn't even whine at his own mom like that. Lloyd does it the most even casually calling her mom in public. Sometimes when her and Kai get into it Cole jokes that Mommy and Daddy are fighting.
Eventually, it gets to the point that whatever two ninja are in charge in any given scenario are called mom and dad. Pixel and zayne dealing with a nindroid horde? What do we do dad? Coke and jay dealing with video game monsters manifested into the real world? Jay's whining about why he's the mom in this relationship.
Skyler starts coming around a lot more and her nia and pixel are terrifying when they get together. Girls night is an event for sure on the bounty. But mostly it's just nice to have other girls around more. Especially when you break an arm and need help bathing. Pixel is a life saver when your other top options are your brother or Zane.
Cole while a fan of a wide range of music is the metal head of the group. He's got rock t-shirts and punk bad posters and him an nia bond by going to concerts. She also barrows his t-shirts a lot for alt outfits since they just fit the aesthetic.
The boys have always known better than to go easy on Nia but when they started training with her they knew she was pretty new to spinjitzu and didn't want to seriously hurt the newb so they held back quite a bit. She was having none of it and ended up going really hard against them until in a three on three Cole swung at her thinking she was Kai in the red gei and nocked the living hell out of her. Sent her flying and Broke her nose. She payed him back with a sprained wrist and a trip over the side of the bounty before he could apologize.
Pixel and nia bond over building things, new toys for the boys mostly. Or working on Samurai X. But nia also teachers her how to thrift and alter her own clothes. Clothing wasn't something Pixel ever really had to worry about she just wore them ti make other people comfortable but getting to make things for herself with her own hands is one if her favorite hobbies now. She wears all kinds of aesthetics. Steampunk hippy is definitely a favorite tho.
Lloyd is the token guy allowed in the girl group. Sometimes when they go out to brunch together he tags along. They drink, and gossip, and shop and get their nails done sure. They also go to classes together and compete in races and elemental competitions and go to those businesses where you pay for an hour alone in a room full of glass and you just smash shit.

"Hey."
I turned around in my seat and smiled. "Hi, Luka."
"So... how'd you wanna do this?"
I cocked an eyebrow. "Do what?" Luka shared an amused smile. "Oh!" I face-palm. "The project! Right." I picked up the notebook with my notes from my desk and slammed it on his desk. Then I rotated it in his direction. "This is how we're going to do it."
"Wow, you've really thought this through already."
I rest my face on my hand and smirk. "It's no coincidence that I ace my presentations."
"I guess I'm lucky then."
"More than you think." I straighten my back. "Okay, no funny business tho. You fuck up and I'll make you suffer all the way to June. Take a picture of them notes so you have a copy and have a slight idea of what's going on."
He puts up a half-amused smile, "this ain't my first rodeo."
"But it's your first bullfight, so keep up." He laughed and I bit my lip. I might've gone overboard. 
"I'll do my best," he assured in a soft voice. Holy shit. He's so mellow. As soon as I was sure he had a picture of my notes, I took his phone. I entered into his contacts and added my number then dialed myself. 
I show him the screen of my phone. "Now we have each other's numbers." He smiled before I turned around just in time for the teacher to get in. 
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
I was watching dessert recipes on YouTube when I received a message from Luka. The popup appeared from an Unknown number which reminded me that I forgot to add him to my contacts.

    "don't vanish on me"
Tumblr media
    "i'll snap my fingers into Thanos' ass if i have to"
"right 😂"
At dinner, I couldn't stop thinking about Luka. We might've never talked much to each other but I always had the hots for him. He was just my type: tall, supposedly long hair for a boy, dyed hair, punk-like feel and especially (these just get me going) those black gauges in his ears. Anyways, I'd lie if I said I never got distracted in class because of the smell of his cologne.
"Thank you for dinner, [Y/N]," said my mom after she cleaned the table.
"Don't forget to do the dishes, love."
"Yes, Dad," I chuckled.
"We're off to bed, then. Goodnight, [Y/N]."
"Goodnight, mum. Goodnight, dad."
That night, I fell asleep thinking about how nice that chat conversation with Luka was.
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
I groaned loudly when I got into class. I ran because I was late for geography. When I got to class, the lack of a teacher at the desk made me want to kill myself. My classmates were scattered around the classroom in groups, as usual when a teacher was absent. Done with life, I walk to my desk, drop my backpack and accommodate my face on the desk. Suddenly, somebody is standing next to me. But I really just wanted some sleep so my first intention was to ignore whomever until well, it's self-explanatory.
"Looks like someone spent all night thinking about me."
"What!?" I see Luka. Now fully energized and heart pumping, I stutter: "No, no. What are you even saying?"
He laughs and takes a seat on the vacant spot in front of me. He rests his arms on my desk. "I'm just messing with you, wanted to see the reaction I'd get out of you. I wasn't expecting to fully wake you up." He smiles broadly and I stare into his eyes.
Have you ever met that person, no matter who they are, their eyes are so enthralling that you just can't help but keep staring at them? These kinds of eyes just have something... Something I'm unable to describe. And when I stare at them, they're so glossy and shiny.
"I think you'd look amazing if you wore eyeliner."
"Huh?" Half of his face moves upwards in sync. "That's very random."
"I mean, yeah." I look away, fidget with my bracelet and then look back. "I just thought it'd bring your eyes out even more."
"Ooh," he exhales knowingly. "Because they're blue, right?"
I knit my eyebrows together. "No," I say offended. Had this boy never realized how nice his eyes are?
"Why then?" He asks and nods his head onto his arms.
"Well," I lick my lips, "I don't know." I shrug "It's not because of the color, which is beautiful just so you know." I caress my arm and try very hard to maintain eye contact, occasionally looking away. "Your eyes, I don't know, they just have something."
He smiles at my words, "look who's talking."
"Not a clown, that's for sure." He groans in a boyish way and it melts my insides so warm I almost let it show.
"You won't let it go, won’t you?" He lays defeated on my desk, arms sprawled.
"You did that to yourself." He hummed in a way that seemed a mixture of displeasure and annoyance. His long hair was sprawled in every direction of my desk. I could tell that he washed his hair either last night or this morning —it smelled so nice. Luka smelled really nice and I couldn't help but bite my lip to restrain myself from sniffing him all over like I was some kind of dog-bred. I started playing with his hair and it was so much softer than I expected it to be, it was dyed after all. He let a pleasurable groan slip through.
"Does this bother you?"
Luka abruptly opened his eyes and forced my head to rest on the desk as well. With very soft caresses he ran his hand through my locks and I understood what it was that he intended.
"What about you?"
I stared into his eyes for a moment and closed them, then resumed playing with his hair as he did the same. We were so close, I could hear his silent breathes. I wondered if this could be considered as cuddling. Honestly? I didn't care because I was enjoying it.
"Hey, guys, look at [Y/N] and Luka."
"Woah, when did that happen."
"Never thought [Y/N] liked that type of guy."
"You're kidding, right? Luka's definitely her type."
We spent the rest of the hour like that. Somewhere in between, the rest of the class noticed us but, frankly, we paid them no mind. But it made me anxious. Not because of what they said but about what Luka might've thought about it.
"I kind of like this," he whimpers softly as if scared he'd break whatever we had going on.
I agree with him softly, just as scared to ruin the mood.
When the bell rang, we hesitantly broke apart. Luka returned to his assigned seat behind me and then class started. The moments the teacher repeated subjects the class already went through, Luka played with the ends of my hair.
After the school bell rang for the last time that day, Luka approached me. He asked if I wanted to start on the project today. Luka was so cute while he asked. He didn't do anything particularly cute but the way he looked when he leaned on the wall had sent me flying. Obviously, I said that it was a good idea. Not desperately, of course, even though I wanted to grab him and steal him away. I kept my cool.
"What time?"
He grimaced to hide a grin. "I was hoping, like, right now?"
"Uh, well... On any other particular month, I'd agree and take you to my house. But we're getting reformations done so it's a very big mess."
"We can go to my place." He states like it's a universal fact.
"But all my shit's at home, and I'd want to empty my backpack, grab some money, etcetera."
"Okay, I get it. I can take you home and we'll head right over to mine?"
Even though I might pass out any moment out of pure embarrassment, I cross my arms in an 'X' in front of his face.
"No way that's happening, clown boy."
"What? Why?" He frowns.
"No way in hell I'm letting you drive me on your motorbike."
A small laugh escapes his lips. "You've never been on a motorcycle?"
I act displeased.
Luka laughs with a hand on his stomach. "You haven't!" I scowl and his laughter subdues. He waves his hands in front of him and apologizes for laughing. "I'll be careful, just for you." He assures.
"Even if I agreed... I doubt you'd have a second helmet. And we all know that police officer which has an obsession for the law."
"I got us covered on that one, I have two."
I stare at him. "You had this all planned out, didn't you?"
"No," he grins, "it just happens to be that I usually pick my sister up from her school."
"Oh, so she's gonna have to walk all the way back to your house. We can't let her do that, can we?" No matter how much I crush on Luka, anything that can get me out of sitting on that devil's contraption, I'd go with.
"I said 'usually', didn't I?" I can feel his smirk soaking right through me but in a much more softer tone he said "it'll be fun," and smiles "trust me."
It was his goddamn smile that convinced me to agree.
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
"I never knew you could live in a boat."
I looked around the main deck and, for some reason, I felt very lightweight and free.
"You don't like it?"
"The contrary, I love it!" I smile at him, "it adds to your charm."
Luka smiles back, "thanks."
Both of us walked inside the boat. I took everything all at once. You rarely get the chance to be inside a boat-home. But the most surprising thing was that it was stable —at least more than I thought.
"My room's the one at the end. Get yourself comfy —I'll be right there."
I bite the inside of my cheek. "Okay."
Once I get into his room, I relax and take a look around. I leave my backpack by the door and head straight for the most valuable thing to me in his room. Luka had one of the nicest guitar stands available on which laid the most basic electric guitar ever... but since looks can deceive, I pick it up.
I make myself comfortable on his bed along with Luka's guitar and a guitar pick I snatched from the wall. Without thinking twice, I started to play. It didn't matter to me that I hadn't plugged the guitar into an amplifier, this particular tab didn't need the magic of electricity. I suppose I should have asked first if I could play but it's too late now-
"That's 'Lonely Day', right?"
"Ah! Shit! Sorry!" I stood up hastily, the guitar pick went flying to the floor and I placed the guitar back where it was supposed to be. I turn to him to apologize, "I should've asked-."
Luka walks past me, grabs the guitar by its fretboard and puts the strap around himself. He shuffles around me and I was too confused to realize what he was doing. Then he hands me the guitar fully-tuned-connected-to-an-amplifier guitar. He lifts it by the fretboard again and hands it over to me as if telling me to take it. I stare into his eyes and do exactly that.
At that moment, we didn't need any words as I accepted his silent offer. I strum dumbly and then start fidgeting with the knobs on his amplifier. I bite my lip, it doesn't have as many options as mine and it's smaller than the one I have at home but I managed to get the right sound.
I started playing a song that I had played countless times and felt very confident. This moment was about impressing Luka and I was determined to blow him away. But the moment I started playing, I couldn't keep up the cool-girl act and grinned as I played around the room.
"Wow," he said amazed after I finished. "I never knew you played guitar, let alone that well."
"I'm amazing, I know," I wink.
"What did you play?"
"You don't recognize it!?" I gasp loudly. I put my hands over my heart. "Oh, my heart! It hurts! I have never been so hurt before!"
He holds back an embarrassed smile. "Guilty as charged."
"It's Crowd Chant, by Satriani," an exaggerated sad smile adorns my lips.
"Oh, right! The guy from 'Surfing with the Alien'!"
"Yes, that one! I love him, he's my idol!"
"He's good."
"Good? He's a GOD." I pout at him. "Your idol is Jagged Stone, that's why you have so little appreciation for him."
"Right."
I playfully punch him. "Just kidding."
"I thought I was supposed to be the clown around here."
I laugh very loud at that. "Yes! I will - haha - leave - ha - the rest to you."
During the week we were making the project we had gotten really close and we kept hanging out at each other's houses even when the project was long ago finished. I met his very cool mum, and his sister, who is physically exactly like him but both of them don't seem to admit it. And he met my small family too.
"I keep telling you! You do look alike! Genetics is no joke."
"I agree with [Y/N]!" Juleka's friend said one day over dinner. I can't remember what her name was but I always thought there was more than 'friends' between her and Juleka.
"We do not look alike; you both must be very blind," Luka jokes and I pinch him very hard. "Ow! Stop!" He pinches back.
"No! Luka! That was payback for yesterday!" He stuck his tongue out at me and I growl. "You're very mean."
He shrugs, "whatever you say, [Y/N]."
"Oh, 'whatever I say' it is, is it?" I crossed my arms and pondered without breaking my staring contest with Luka. "So if I said you're ugly, you'd agree?"
He smirked, "sure." I felt how triumph tasted and literally a second later I tasted defeat. "But it won't affect the fact that my eyes have 'something'."
I became a blushing mess and everyone at the table stared at us.
"So..." Juleka started, unsure. "Does that mean that [Y/N] confessed first?"
Juleka's blonde friend nodded, "I knew it!"
"I'm happy for the both of you," Mrs. Couffaine cheered with a very sweet smile.
There was a problem with their cheers which made Luka and me quite uncomfortable. It was wrong. Nothing had happened between us.
"It's...! It's not like that!" I attempt to defend ourselves and turn to Luka. "That's not what that was, right, Luka?"
He was looking in the opposite direction, scratching his crimson red neck. "I mean..."
I hide my face in my hands. "Oh my God, I want to kill myself."
"You know what? We will leave you both to work out whatever misunderstanding there might be, okay?" And with no answer, all three of them left.
"Let's go outside." With no warning, Luka took me by the hand and guided me to the main deck. It was chilly outside and I shivered but kept it to myself. "Here." Luka handed me his jacket.
"Thanks," I smile and put it on. It still smells like his cologne.
"About what Juleka said..." He avoided my gaze by looking into the river. "I might've told her that I like you," he turns to me and takes my hands, "a lot." Luka squeezes my hands out of nervousness. "The way you and I understand each other, without any words, just the music is enough. I feel like we're connected through it like we are the power-chords to any rock song."
My heart was melting, I always knew deep down that Luka's a very sweet romantic and he was killing me with his cuteness. I never knew you could look cute and hot during a confession. "Luka, I-"
"Remember when we sang 'Anything better than you'?"
"Yeah."
I recalled the memory. At the end of the song, when the part that goes "I can sing anything sweeter than you" our lips were so close... I couldn't stop thinking about it before I fell asleep every night.
"I wanted to kiss you so badly, but I just couldn't do it." Luka pulled me in and we were as close as that other time, my heart was beating so hard I could hear it in my ears. "Until now."
Luka kissed me and I kissed back. We kissed each other so desperately and I ran my hand through his hair. Fuck, how I loved the softness of his hair. We break apart for a kiss and stare at each other's eyes, dumbfounded. We kiss again except this time it wasn't as desperate. It was softer, a kiss only Luka could make amazing. Luka had thin lips but made up for it with the way he kissed. I wanted to kiss him more, I wanted more from Luka so I kissed him harsher. Then he broke apart the kiss, clearly taken aback from it.
My heart stopped, "I... I'm sorry-!" He cut me off by kissing me harsher than I did and I loved every second of his harshness. I began feeling his neck, his back, his chest and pushed myself closer to him as every second that passed it became hotter.
We broke the make-out apart. Our flushed faces appreciated the cool night breeze. We keep wrapped around each other. "I think we should get back inside."
I listened to his pounding heart through his chest. "Not yet, clown boy."
"Whatever you say, love."
