#this would be a much later in the game kind of thing

[rosy-hollow]

Toji...underestimates his own strength sometimes.

And you know this - the man has probably broken the furniture in your house far more times than you can count (by accident of course) but it still never failed to amuse you.

The two of you had met while you were on a business trip to Japan - and immediately the two of you hit it off after the burly man had saved you from some random drunk off the streets of Okinawa.

However, you were in Japan for a business trip - and thus once your time there was up, you were forced to move back to America.

It was a strange dynamic the two of you had, not fully long distance because you two always tried to fly in and spend time with each other as much as possible - and as much of a hassle that it was, you made it work.

Eventually, Toji had decided to move in with you in the United States, and to say the very least... it was a major culture shock.

Learning English was one thing (seriously, how many sounds can 'ough' make?!) but American life was a stark contrast to the Japanese way of living that Toji sometimes found it difficult to wrap his mind around.

You made it easier though. He would never admit it- but the only reason he went through all of this was because of you.

It was strange, Toji never thought he'd get so attached to someone that he'd uproot his entire life and move across the world just to be with the one he loved, but you made it worth it.

Your laugh, your smile, your kindness, your witty banter - Toji would move planets if he could just be with you a second longer. You were like a drug - addicting and euphoric. No amount of rehab could get him over you.

But the main thing about America that captivated Toji's interest? (other than you)

Football.

And by football, I mean American football. To Toji's knowledge, football was what the Americans called 'soccer', but here, football was a whole different story.

You had put it on one day, for the hell of it - you weren't entirely into sports that much, but you understood the basics of the game. Toji at first thought it was stupid, why the fuck would he give a shit about big beefy men throwing around a deformed ball?

But begrudgingly, your boyfriend got oddly into it, going so far as to buy you both matching jerseys and keep tabs on the progressions of each game.

You thought it was cute - how into it he got, yelling and pouting at the screen in ways that he would deny later on as if the players on the TV could hear him.

Tonight was no different, Toji relaxing on the couch with you pressed up against him, reading a book, with the semi-finals of whatever football tournament he was following - when suddenly:

CRASH!

You blink momentarily, beer dripping down your shirt as Toji stares what used to be his beer can, the can now completely decimated by your boyfriend's death grip.

You gape at him in shock - your boyfriend turning uncharacteristically bright red.

"Did you just-"

"Shut up."

"Toji, that's the third time this week-"

"I know-"

"You're so lucky it didn't get on my book or you'd be so dead right now."

A/N: in honor of the super bowl heh - toji would so be a football dad (he probably bets on the games all the time too)

episode three: date with bachelor number one

the events of episode two lingered in your mind as you got yourself ready to film for episode three, the stylists specifically gave you only one outfit to which they explained that your outfit was meant to match your date’s outfit. 

it was cute so you didn’t necessarily care about only being given one outfit compared to the usually three or four. 

today you’d be going on a date with the bachelor that the fans voted for and although you weren’t nervous to meet the first bachelor, you were more nervous about the date. the men are tasked to come up with their own plans for the date and with some insider intel from the stylets, they told you that producers give the guys some options for date ideas but the date is ultimately up to the bachelor. 

in the past, all of the dates have been somewhat normal or casual, so you were holding onto the idea that your date wouldn’t be anything out of the ordinary and would hope that it goes smoothly. 

“ready, yn?” your hairstylist says after spraying your air one last time with hairspray. you nod in response and just like clockwork; the PA is knocking on your door and letting you know filming would start in just a moment. 

PA tells you that you would do the usual introductions of the episode and the beginning interview with the love guru and whatnot. talking about the previous episode that you’ve grown accustomed to. the PA then goes on to tell you that you would be transported to the date location before meeting the bachelor which surprised you. 

in the past, the two would usually meet on set and they’d travel together to the date location but with this season, the producers wanted to switch things up which meant they allowed for the bachelor’s to choose the location and meet the dove there. if you weren’t nervous before, you were definitely nervous now. 

the introduction to the episode goes by fairly quickly and soon enough you’re in a car with a blindfold. a part of you would naturally have started to freak out being in a moving vehicle while blindfolded, it partially felt like you were being kidnapped; and you could have but you knew that wasn’t the case as the PA tells you that you’ve arrived and carefully guided you out of the car and towards the date. 

you were trying your best to stay balanced in the platform shoes you were wearing and when the PA leaves you to stand by yourself, you’re prompted to just stand there as they setup for filming to start again. 

the director announces a countdown before filming and tells you that after the countdown, count to five in your head before taking off the blindfold. and you do just that; but almost falter to remove it as you hear music start to play in the room. 

the sounds of a guitar strumming plays throughout the room and the pleasant music soothes your worries as a deep and smooth voice begins to sing alongside the melodic sounds of the guitar. when you remove your blindfold, you’re met with a cute boy sitting on a stool, playing the guitar and singing the song that was so beautiful it almost made you forget that you were filming a tv show. 

you were so entranced by his singing that you found yourself walking over closer to him without even noticing. he had this type of allure to him that was pulling you in, a natural gravitational pull that made you want to lean in and take in the beauty of his voice. you were fondly looking at him as he sang this song, one that you haven’t heard before so you mind wondered if it was something he had written; which only made your heart grow fonder for the boy in front of you. 

there was an aura in the restaurant that felt magical, like the atmosphere in the room didn’t need any movie or tv show magic to make glorious and tender moments between the two of you to be expressed through tv screens at home. 

when he finishes his song, your cheeks have began to slightly burn from smiling so much and you were happy to see that he had a smile on his face just as big as yours. you imagine that he’s very happy to see how well received the song was by you. he smoothly slides the guitar strap off of himself and hooks it onto the stand behind him, walking over to you with a sense of confidence that makes the butterflies in your stomach flutter like no other. 

he was wearing a khaki jacket that was slightly zipped up over a white button up and a black tie; paired with sleek black slacks and a shiny black leather shoes. he was dressed pretty formal which kind of made your somewhat outfit look way more casual in comparison but you didn’t mind as it highlighted the matching aspect of your outfits with the brown and warm toned palette. 

he extends his arm towards you and he takes your hand in his, bring your hand up to his lips with a gentle kiss before introducing himself. 

“hello beautiful, i’m bachelor number one but you can call me: jay” he says and his speaking voice was just as smooth and lovely as the way his voice sounds when singing.

the kiss leaves you a bit stunned as you weren’t necessarily expecting and when he releases your hand, the lingering feeling of his kiss on the back of your hand tingles, like it burned with fire but not in the way of pain but more so like a feeling that you wished would never leave. 

“it’s great to meet you bachelor number one, i’m yn.” you say with a smile and he leads the two of you to a table set to the side of you two. it was a beautiful table scape of white and orange flowers, beautiful ceramic dishes and gold cutlery. 

jay goes on to say that this was his mom’s favorite restaurant and that he thought it would be the best place to take you out on a date because they had delicious food and beautiful interior; to which you agreed and couldn’t wait to taste the food. you talked about what you should order and he gives very thoughtful answers, providing information on most of the menu items while also being considerate enough of your own interests and likes to make sure that he doesn’t recommend anything you wouldn’t enjoy. 

the two of you end up ordering the same thing, steak with a side of asparagus and roast potatoes, after jay boasts about how it was the best steak he’s ever had. he does tease you momentarily for ordering it well done because he thinks it tastes the best medium well but it was all done in a loving manner when he teases you. “don’t worry, when i cook for you in the future i’ll be sure to cook your steak well done.” he says nonchalantly that you almost miss out on the fact that he’s insinuating there would be a future between the two of you. 

“you’ll cook for me?” you tease and he nods with a smirk. “of course, i’m a great cook.” jay adds and he then explains that his original plan for the date was cooking for you but decided against it because all of his focus would go towards cooking instead of paying all his attention to you. 

his words touched you dearly as you think about how considerate jay has been, he’s seem to have put so much thought into the date. “so, that song you sang, did you write it?” you ask and once again he’s nodding and smiling at you. that smile that just made you feel so giddy on the inside. 

“yeah, i thought about what way i can surprise you and i feel like men don’t serenade their women anymore so i thought i’d write you a song, did you like it?” he asks and it was your turn to nod and smile. “i mean, i don’t know if you saw my face but i was beaming the whole time. it’s safe to say that i loved it– i’ve never had a guy sing to me before let alone write me a song.” you explained and jay has a triumphant smile on his face. his goal was to not only impress you but leave a lasting impression that you would take with you throughout the rest of the show. 

he wasn’t going to lie but he was a bit nervous singing because despite having played the guitar for several years and singing, he’s never done it for a tv show. he also knew that he came off a bit mysterious during the first two episodes so he was surprised to see that the fans had voted for him to be the first date, thinking about how he must’ve left a great impression on the fans if they wanted to see more of this mysterious persona that he didn’t necessarily mean to have for the show. 

you talk about your interests while waiting for the food and you learn that jay loves guitars which you could’ve guessed from his very beautiful and impressive song, he was originally from seattle, washington which you thought was very cool because you had some family over there, and that he also liked collecting perfume and cologne. his interests weren’t anything extraordinary but the way he speaks with so much vigor and elation about his interests only made you want to listen and learn more about him. 

“so, tell me about you, yn? what does a pretty girl like you like to do?” and the quick insert of the compliment makes you blush. you tell him about your love for flowers, music, and how much you loved to read. “it’s a bit boring but i love it.” you say with a shrug and he shakes his head, “no, not boring at all. i think it makes you more beautiful knowing you have love for nature and the wonders the world has to offer when it comes to the knowledge gained from books and the joy spread through music. 

i guess i got lucky with writing you that song, huh?” 

and your cheeks burn a brighter shade of pink as those words leave his lips. he just had a way with words and you knew that prior with the way he answered your questions from the last episode but it was nice to put a face to those words.  

the rest of the date went smoothly, the food was delicious and the two of you got to learn about one another even more. he even encouraged you to try some of his medium well steak and offered you a small piece that he cut off, giving you some kind words to help you get through it. it may have seemed silly but the way he was telling you that everything would be okay no matter how you felt about the steak made you feel good on the inside. 

jay just had such a way with words that made you feel okay even when it was coming from someone you’ve just met. the medium well steak wasn’t as bad as you thought it would be, it was actually pleasantly surprising and it made you feel comforted knowing that jay was willing to support you through new experiences and challenges even if it was just trying a food you don’t necessarily enjoy but without forcing you to break a boundary you weren’t comfortable breaking. 

you and jay are then pulled aside towards the end of the date to film your ending interviews about the date where a PA would ask you some questions about the date. 

“what was your favorite part of the date?”

yn: probably the song, i don’t think i’ll ever forget it.  jay: meeting her, she’s something special. 

“would you date the other?” 

yn: yes, definitely.  jay: without a doubt. 

“do you think he’ll be mr. right?” 

yn: i think it’s too early to tell but i think he definitely gave a strong start so the rest of the guys definitely have some big shoes to fill. 

“do you think you’ll be mr. right?”

jay: i know i’m mr. right and i hope she’s able to see that. i really enjoyed today and it makes me happy to see how much she enjoyed herself. 

the two of you are then told to film your goodbyes when you leave your respective interviews. jay asks if he can give you a hug before parting and you answer by opening your arms to welcome his embrace. his arms are strong around your waist but gentle all at the same time. you could tell that his arms were toned under his coat and a sense of comfort washes through you as you feel his hug. his arms wrap around your waist while yours go over his shoulders and around his neck. 

he even goes as far to rub your back, a small gesture that brings you more comfort. “it was very nice meeting you, yn. i hope today exceeds your expectations and i can’t wait for the day we can see each other again.” jay says, pulling away and placing a goodbye kiss onto the back of your hand like he did at the beginning. 

the burning sensation of his kiss returns to your skin and once again you’re wishing that the feeling never fades away. 

“i was very impressed with you and this date today, jay. thank you so much for the amazing date and i’m expecting to hear that song on spotify after this so i can listen to it everyday.” you joke and the two of you laugh at your candid comment. 

“you know what, i’ll put it on a flash drive just for you so you’re the only one that can listen to it.” he adds and it only makes you two laugh further as the episode comes to an end, transitioning back to the tv show set with the love guru on stage. 

“that was so cute! i definitely need a man who would write and sing me a song… tune in next episode where our little dove will go on a date with…” she says and the music begins to do a drum roll to add dramatic effect before she announces the next bachelor. 

“bachelor number four!” she exclaims and the crowd cheers at her announcement. 

needless to say, the next date better be something you’ve never experienced before to be able to top the date that jay planned because right now you were ready to end the show and choose him as your mr. right.

Hello!

I wanted to share with you my thoughts about Persona 5 Royal because I love your rants!

So, Ryuji sees Ren as his bestie and hates Akechi for attempting to kill his friend and hurting the group in general. But then, Ryuji has to see how Ren is kinda becoming a rlly good friend with Akechi and he must be so confused on what to think!

Like he knows Akechi was an a**hole but now he is Ren's friend and kinda taking the place Ryuji had in Ren's life!

He must have felt a lot of conflicted emotions, and I want to see your thoughts about this

hi!!! very cool that you like my ramblings and thanks so much for saying so. and for sharing your thoughts with me!! i enjoy the chance to chit chat,, though i might struggle to gather all my thoughts together coherently

ryuji and goro have very VERY different relationships with ren. and each holds their own place in rens heart. and theyre both so precious to him. ren met ryuji and it was like standing in the warm sun after being cold and in the dark for so long and flowers bloomed in their chest. and meeting goro was a different kind of thrill. it was a game of wits. it was heart pounding and motivating. whatever souls are made of yours and mine are the same (for better and for worse)

ryujis relationship with akechi has a TON of potential. they have a lot in common.,, ryuji starts off seeing goro as some snobby bootlicker who would sell them to satan for a cornchip. and goro sees ryuji as a tactless fool with hot air between his ears. but while working with them. he, against his better judgement, and despite ryujis reservations as well. they start to see each other a bit different.

goro is not immune to Ryuji Charms and Ryuji is more emotionally intelligent than most give him credit for and he can stand in solidarity with goro as someone else who has suffered greatly at the hands of adults who should have helped him. and yeah, the whole thing is very conflicting.

i dont think ryuji would see goro as a threat to his place as rens best friend, mostly because it. isnt really clear if the gang knows just how close ren and akechi become until later. how much they regularly talk and hang out and understand each other. like,, the gang might think its a keep your friends close and your enemies closer sort of thing. that its all pleasantries. that this is all part of them playing goro as goro tries to play them. and be varying degrees of surprised at how much ren seems to grieve him after he disappears.

i think when goro joins the team theyre surprised by how familiar they act with each other. (what do you mean you gave him a Thieves Club bracelet and a cute endearment MONTHS AGO ren this is the enemy!!) of course ren and goro try to keep things low key. cause they both know whats coming. but. it becomes clearer. just how close ren has allowed himself to be to the resident backstabbing shitbird. and ryuji is like. hey ren whats the deal. what the hell. because hello?? look at what goro has done and what he plans to do. (hes worried for rens wellbeing moreso than anything else)

at that point, i can see him being very curious about their friendship. ren says theyre rivals but just how close are they? what do they do when they hang out and what do they talk about? he doesnt expect ren to spill a lot cause hes a private person. and then he asks. hey. but im still your best friend, right? and ren is like firefly my bruhloved no one could ever take the place of you. and ryujis like. alright cool. love you too, mia. be careful... (im here for you.)

and ryuji and the rest of the gang try, as their comfort dictates, to bring goro into the fold and be friendly with him. ryuji wants to know why ren likes him so much as much as goro wonders why ren likes ryuji so much. and the only way to find out is to try and hang out with the guy. ryuji is surprised at how athletic goro is and extends invitations to run or bike with him. they dont really get much chance to know each other better except as team mates on the battlefield. they sure arent what one another would consider friends. and yet by the end ryuji is the guy to tell a broken goro "man, youre more than special." and "youre your own person, you gotta know that" because thats the kind of guy ryuji is. and goro cant wrap his head around it (this is why hes rens second!!! and the heart of the pt!! dummy!!!) ryuji didnt want goro to die! he pounded on that door and called him an idiot!! they can be friends!! i see the vision!!! and this is my city!!! and like. post games i very much see goro and ryuji as like. coworkers at Loving Ren Inc. SDKHFSDF and ren has two hands. the thing is. ren is the kind of friend goro wished he always had, too. and goro takes a Long time to realize that ren is also his best friend. so its very much a chain here. goro: this is my idiot, ren. and this is their idiot, ryuji. (<< pictured, goro getting sucked into the polycule, circa 2018)

also like. ryuji and ren have their own friendly challenges with each other a lot. if anything i think goro is far more likely to get all huffy and be like thats MY rival THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! YOULL NEVER CHALLENGE HIM LIKE I DO. but this fact also acts as a gateway to goro becoming closer to ryuji. like. when they bring goro into their own friendly challenges as a third. it. makes goro feel included. and they bond more. goro finds another rival in ryuji in a completely different way from ren. and theyre both so aggro for rens love and attention. like jealous puppies. and ren has to kiss them to calm them down LMAO

i can go on about them but its shippy this is really long orz

The full version of my 20th century harmony midterm. The assignment was to write a piano piece drawing from 3 different harmony practices we studied, and I was like "well if I'm writing kind of deranged stuff anyway why don't I go all out" so that's why it has drumloops and shit. The first half or so is not much changed from the last version I posted, the second half has a lot of additions though.

A section: quartal harmony based on E B section: octatonic C section: bitonal (E minor on top and G# minor on bottom)

...and then there's a recap of A at the end that does the quartal thing again but in G# this time instead of E.

IDK these weird harmonic practices are kinda growing on me. Writing insane music is really fucking fun actually

[freakinator]

thinking about kab and the thing about her i think is she knows just enough to keep herself safe Generally but not enough to really predict what would happen should something more... complicated??? unforeseen??? idk whats the right word to use but something not covered by someones reputation and/or vids happen, believe it or not this also affects her view of clownpierce (we'll get to that)

for example, mapicc has a reputation for being an violent, angry, & impulsive guy and nothing else which makes sense but is incredibly surface level and something that only really works if you dont have a lot of experience working with him

another is reddoons, his betrayal after the base incident while shocking is not unforeseen but his reputation as being a guy whos seen as being a reasonable person whos fairly loyal to his team made it seem like something he wouldnt do even tho it absolutely is

regarding how it affects her view of clown, since he isnt perfectly aligned with his reputation she instead pivots in the complete opposite direction and forgiving basically every crime he does even tho hes something much more mild and complicated than either his reputation or her view of him will ever be (think madonna-whore complex which is especially obvious when it comes to kabs vs woogies view of him)

another side effect of this Just Enough amount of knowledge aside from being blinded by her own expectations is that it frustrates ppl who think shes oversimplificating things (like me and seemingly several other tumblr users as well) especially when she claims that shes objectively correct and the smartest in the room at any given moment

how this roughness in her analysis affects her in the server still has yet to be fully seen but we do still have at least a couple months until the end but 'til then shes just gonna keep stumbling as more and more complicated situations pop up as is typical in lifesteal to happen and eventually shes gonna have to learn to adapt or else she'll be suffering the consequences one way or another

[cent-scratchnsniff]

More sketchy employee profile images. Mostly made to be able to replace the picrew I had in the template I made since I can draw. I did end up just putting it as back and white though but the color is just nice to have. I'm STILL trying to tweak the template since it is very finicky and there is an example of what it looks down below if you're interested. It is a lot. It will happen. I am just not the quickest

There are typos and inconsistencies I missed but in general it should be fine...

[icewindandboringhorror]

Lineup of all of the characters that appear long enough to need a visual representation of them in the game lol

[fragmentedblade]

I think I've become an official HI3 player. I check the HSR leaks hoping for iterations of HI3 characters now

[b4kuch1n]

Your swsh art always makes me want to replay the game because i love it and its my favorite pokemon game and every time i play another pokemon game i think of it how i miss certain elements from swsh. Then i boot up the game and im once again caught in the 1 hour 40 minutes hand held intro and im like ah- now i remember why i have been playing other pokemon games instead of this one. Happy (late?) birthday!

you don't want to listen to hop? you don't want to hear him teach you about type matchups? you don't wanna let him cheer u on...? 🥺 waa....?

[zincbot]

played through tunic so fast i didn't even process anything besides filling my noteapp with "left right down up", but yo the production line for the obelisks? that was fucked

[blirpus]

made the mistake of reading old texts with my ex 😃

its unbelievable how much shit i put up with. her being upset, me asking if theres anything i can do to make her feel better, her telling me to bring her a gun so she can end it all quickly and me fucking apologizing for making her feel that way

(this was after an argument that ensued when i left a call in panic as she started yelling at me)

[goblin-enjoyer]

I swear why are half the things i like/fandoms im in made of mostly younger people while the other half are mostly older people? what are the zoggin odds with that?

How it feels being 20 in a fandom with a bunch of 30-40 somethings.

VS how it feels being 20 in a fandom with a bunch of 14-17 somethings.

like am do i just have extremely odd luck with things i like or is this just what being 20 is like?

[meownotgood]

my very first fictional crush vs my current one what do you think they'd talk about if they met

[cinematicnomad]

1, 3, and 8 for the fun things to be asked

001. what are 3 things you’d say shaped you into who you are? rather than just link you to my other answer, i will provide more (non-trauamtic) defining facets of my life: 1) my parents being almost 40 by the time they had me (38 and 39 respectively); 2) not getting my drivers license until i was 23 (follow this experience through the tag #kat learns to drive); and 3) my school in germany only having a mixed gender soccer team when i moved there in 4th grade

003. 3 films you could watch for the rest of your life and not get bored of? i feel like this is more difficult to just limit myself to 3. here's 3 random ones off the top of my head: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, apollo 13, and the cutting edge.

008. any reacquiring dreams? unfortunately i don't, so i WILL be linking to my original answer here :)

ask fun questions!

COOKING.  ✧

"Look at these knives. They got all kinds in here, and each one's kept deadly sharp. Huh? Oh, dinner. Yeah, yeah, just leave it to me."

TUTORING

INSTRUCT

BAD.  ✧

“Wonder what it feels like to have a piece of metal nailed to your foot. Let's find out.”

WEEDING.  ✧

"Weeds got their uses, too, believe it or not. Just not where they gotta look pretty to fit in."

SKY WATCH.  ✧

"What?"

UPDATE GOALS

REASON.  ✧

“Magic's always done me right when it comes to killing, but Fódlan's Reason is a whole different beast. I need to know it inside and out if I'm gonna find all the best ways to bring the pain here. Show me the ropes, and I mean I want you to make me feel it!”

FAITH.  ✧

“Learning to stitch up wounds and set bones was a necessity back home, but I'd like to take a crack at this kind of magic that calls on Faith. The fun's all over once you die, you know. Putting someone back together keeps it going for as long as you want. Lord Sombron would probably approve, yeah?”

BRAWLING.  ✧

“Magic's great 'n all, but being out of reach kinda takes the fun outta the fight. I wanna learn to fight up close so the other guy'll get a better shot at me. Plus, I've seen the kind of damage those steel gloves can do to a person's skull. Got me excited just thinking about it.”
