Learning stuff about behind the scenes of The Batman (show) really is just when seeing them not feature certain Batman villains or having to adapt Batgirl first and Robin as soon as Teen Titans was done with, just know it was likely down to the Bat Embargo.

SOMETHING DIFFERENT

harry styles x yn stylist — social media AU

I’ve been stuck with I dig your cinema for a while now, so I wanted to do something different to distract myself and somehow came up with this. Idk I just went along with this idea I had in mind and stopped when I reached the 30 pictures. Of course that means I didn’t get to finish it yet, but here it is anyway. Sorry if it sucks.

harrysix this is ridiculous cmon. i fully refuse to believe it’s real harryseven first time he’s so public about a relationship and they just break up like this? OUT OF NOWHERE?

↳ harryeight that’s what i’ve been saying! the man was WHIPPED  ↳ harrynine this wasn’t mutual, i’ll tell you that much…. ↳ harryten also the fact that her fans are dead silent right now is soooo weird  ↳ harryeleven always knew she was too nice and cute to be true 

jandh4ever NO NO NO NO NO STOP  jandh4ever WHY WOULD THEY BREAK UP  jandh4ever THERE’S NO WAY THIS IS TRUE  jandh4ever NO WAY jandh4ever I DONT BELIEVE IT  jessiefantwo Guys, just read the article. Someone from Jessie’s team released the statement, so it’s real. They broke up, and that’s it. Let’s give them some privacy, it’s not our business.

magazine EXCLUSIVE: Jessie Moss spotted kissing longtime friend just one week after split from Harry Styles. 

The Golden Globe-nominated actress was spotted in her hometown attending her childhood best friend’s wedding—where she was also seen sharing a passionate moment with longtime friend Nathan Griffiths.

“It was meant to be,” a guest at the wedding shared. “We all knew. We were just waiting for Nathan to make a move.”

Another insider added, “They are really happy together. The timing is complicated, but they’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time.”

The photos surfaced just days after Moss’ team released a statement confirming the split. “Jessie and Harry have spent a wonderful time together, but ultimately, they just weren’t the right fit for one another,” a representative for the actress told MAGAZINE.

harryone damn  harrytwo oh my  harrythree well… I guess now we know what happened 🧍🏻‍♀️ harryfour no bc for her team to release the statement so fast before the wedding means she KNEW what was about to happen harryfive I can’t believe she would do this to him???? harrysix has anyone checked on myparents on twitter? girl must be losing it lol harryseven I’m so sad and disappointed I don’t even know what to say 😞  harryeight i had a feeling the break up was suss but damn�� i didnt know i would end up hating that girl jessiefanone i hope my baby doesn’t get canceled :( nathan and her have been friends for so long… it’s not a surprise they’ve always been in love with each other 

↳ harryfive if she’s always been in love with him then why did she even start dating someone else??? ↳ jessiefanone ＠harryfive i mean, have you ever been in love with a friend? it’s not that easy… i’m sure she didn’t know this would end up happening… 

jessiefan2 can harry’s fans please leave jessie alone? she’s never said one bad word about him and it’s not like she chose to hurt him on purpose 

↳ harrysix really??? have you read the article??? bc it surely seems everyone but harry knew about this ↳ harrynine she didn’t choose to hurt him but she definitely made sure to make herself available to kiss someone else 

harryten ngl i dont blame harry for never speaking about his relationships… look how messy this turned out to be  harryeleven at the end of the day, all I hope is that harry gets to live his happiest single era now… man def deserves it :( jessiefanthree I KNEW IT I KNEW IT OMG THIS IS THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY ENTIRE LIFE harrytwelve god i hate her fandom so fucking much

[scapegoated-if]

you STILL love leon after chapter 1?!...

....what, like it's hard? (i'M KIDDING)

i get this reply is largely a joke. but also i want to babble to you about your own character LMAO

but seriously: yes. and im not even the person from the Ask this quote is from, so that is twoooooo people who still love leon

did i get annoyed for him being hypocritical? yeeesss, but we got to be sassy back and he took it on the chin. good man

but also? he stayed the whole time to make sure the MC was okay. him and shiloh doing that meant a lot to me. (which is why i do a lil wish we could be angrier at vince in a romance, bc i played it platonically and romantically and i think platonic had closer to the anger and hurt my MC felt? but im fine, the romance variation of the scenes was still fire)

plus, him calling dibs for vince for the telegram? so cute. i loved that (anD VINCE WANTING TO THANK HIM, AH)

leon also admitted to not hating vince back. he urged that vince is not replacable. i like how he praised MC too (i would have also praised shiloh myself but leon went for comedy and i respect that)

i like that he got mad in the mc's name about the higher-ups. that felt deserved

i diD NOT LIKE THE POSSIBLE FORESHADOW OF LEON GETTING BAD LUCK MAYBE, YOU KNOW, WITH THAT UMBRELLA. NO MURDERING, NO OUTTING, HE'S JUST A BOY (/tone indicator - i am being overdramatic for comedic effect, do what you want lol)

the 30 min wait was alright all things considered. we were entertained. he was busy getting busy. he got back on work. he tolerated the reprimanded sass. esp if the MC chose to be "brazen", which was my favorite variation of those possible scenes lol

he stayed in contact with the mc arguably the most. if you let neil in your house, you dont get that cute phonecall with shiloh. so, leon is kind of the most consistent person as a result in making the MC a priority regardless of player-choice. i really like that. i wish we got more shiloh, ngl, shiloh's phonecall is the sole reason i am tempted to take neil to the tellphone booth. but even then, im a lil sad shiloh calls vincent so much more often than the MC. i am envious in my MC's name for more shiloh attention. and also more leon, always more leon, but also, again, he is the most consistent so far with how much he contacts the MC and that CAN put leon on top as "in contact the most with the MC" over shiloh (depending on MC choices), and that does deserve praise in my book

i also like that he implicitly trusts the MC so much. with french-MC loaning him a book, or any MCs who fix his eyeliner, or even MCs who walk in on him getting "centered" (he's not worried about getting outted! he knows MC is safe). he's just chill and implicitly trusts those kind of MCs. that is endearing

so like?? none of chapter 1 changed my opinion of leon in any permanent way, i still love the guy

i also love how he threw back "you two sure look cosy" if you said it at him and kai/kaya

though the way he blew up like "a kettle" (i think that was the word used?) over MC and kai/kaya dida make me wonder if he is possessive platonically or romantically of the MC and/or kai/kaya. since he was okay with leaving them alone at the party and claimed not to know kai/kaya that well at the time, i assume any hypothetical possessiveness at that moment was of the MC when i played that moment? idk. but i wasnt mad at it. he got sassily reprimanded for being a brat. its fine

but ngl.... chapter 1 makes me think maybe leon may have had a crush on vince?? like. wanted to impress vince but ended up coming off as too arrogantly pretentious for vincent to see this as flirty (also i wouldnt be surprised if vince just... was dense and didnt realize leon liked guys at all)... also a part of me will very likely always be team leon × my specific MC, esp since you confirmed leon is attracted to all genders. but also my MC is romancing vince, so i do fully ship a little challengers (2024) moment happening, where leon has a crush on both but feels like he cant have either of them. besides, im no stranger to enjoying some, what the kiddos call, "toxic yaoi". or "doomed yaoi". idk. i enjoy that, if leon has a crush on vince, that leon is suffering is my point lol i like tragic romances/crushes. but ill probably build an AU in my head of leon×MC×vince being a happy poly-throuple as MC has two boyfriends trying to frantically make sure she doesnt get murdered

but yeah, [in the tone of the "i get it, youre all without fathers"/"not me. i fucking love my dad" meme:] i fucking love leon. he may have some hypocritical moments, but he's my lil wet meowmeow of a hypocrite. chapter 1 just gave ne new material, it didnt change a good damn thing for me lol

I have nothing to reply to and nothing at all to add, but I couldn't be the only one--other than the anon who wrote this--to read this. I love this anon so much

[ssreeder]

HI SREEDYYYY

i finally read ch 20 of itf IM SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONGGG 💔💔 anyways tho it was sooooo goooddddddddddd omg……

i kinda.. dont like suki…. LIKE I UNDERSTAND WHERE SHES COMING FROM and i like get it but just like move on and get with jet like hes right there and she obviously likes him…. i get it tho WHATEVER!!

BUT KATARA OHHH I LOVE HERRRR SO MUCHHHHHHHHHHH shes so silly and funny and ACCEPTINGGG. like she found out ab zukka and was like I NEED TO CONFIRM IT but then shes happy cause her brothers happy IDK BUT I LOVE ITT!! i wish ara and her couldve been friends tho i love ara i miss her

yk i was praying for her downfall SOOO hard but now i like her she was just abused but that FUCKER zhao!!! and then shes lowkey falling in love with shen (i think, i mightve forgotten) AND THEN HE DIES bro….

anyways i love how u write jee, no notes, perfection.

okay now im gonna rant ab zukka AGGFHAGGRGGAGGAG I LOVE THEM SO MUCHHHHHHHh theyre so silly and goofy and i live them im biting my phone rn (/j) i dont know what to say ab them omg. their relationship progression was soooo like satisfying like when i read liab like i wasnt even upset that they hadnt realized anything yet i was just so sad and happy it was so crazy. IM SO EXCITED FOR ZUKO TO TEL IROH EVERYTHING!!!! finallyyyyyyy!!!! ZUKO SPEAK UR TRUTH!!

oh and jets chill too

OKAY IM VERY EXCITED FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER BYE!!!!

Haha I’ve been getting so many… mixed reactions to LIAB suki & I’m not going to lie I love it. Writing her as a less than perfect, judgmental, immature teenage girl is so fun (being influenced by jets attitude isn’t helping) but she’ll ‘come around’ soon, it just takes time haha. (not that her and sokka will be buddies again idk if that’s going to happen sorry)

OUR GIRL KATARA!! attitude & anger BUT ONLY WHEN ITS JUST! She doesn’t hate Zuko in LIAB, she just doesn’t appreciate his attitude, and of course she wants sokka to be happy! She just also wants him to stop being a sneaky liar!

Jee is wonderful I adore him I also have no notes / & YES ZUKO & IROH TALK 8k COMING SOON WOHOOOO FINALLY!!! Letsssss goooooo

1- soooooo about Bread growing feathers... Was it a one time thing or something permenent? Since Adrien alergic to feathers will he get sneezy around her? That might be one last fuck you from wish lmao.

2- We know wish forces cat miraculous wearers to always be against Order, since Order is gone does that mean they can finally take some steps to fix their relationship?

3- I feel like every hero's secret identity (other than Bread and Adrien) is known by their family. Nora seemed like she was about to punch and drag her sister in safety but held back because of... reasons...

4- (Early Discovery au) Can we say marriage counseling can save the Paris? That au spesificly is very funny to me because its just a rich family failing to communicate properly while looking for an underage girl with most inconvient ways possible so they can recieve magic macarons. Meanwhile Adrien stares at his parents who is one argument away from divorce, nods then leaves. Magical chibi sized gods are here too i guess.

5- Watching inside out then reading the series made me realise if we could see Mari's head anxiety would hold the reins in her head. Poor girl.

6- (joke) How much more time needs to pass for Plag to be able to ask for child support? Can he claim he raised his kitten? Will he and Tom fight against each other? Will he get much much emotional during important events in Bread's life compared to canon Adrien's? (okay last one wasnt really a joke)

7- (Early Discovery au) I noticed Mari was quite nervous while talking to Adrien... Was it because she is afraid of possible backlash or she is really uncomfortable about trying to decieve him? I feel like it's more likely social awkwardness but there is more...

8- (Early discovery au) Emilie seems very insecure as a mother. Is there any spesific event that caused that?

9- Let's assume Wishmaker gave Mari her childhood dream. How much different it would be compared to canon? And how much knowing it would screw Luka?

1: The feathers are magic so, maybe they are non-allergenic. Yes it is a partial F U from the wish but it is more just the punishment of using the combined Catalyst.

2: Misterbug is no longer under the Wish's influence that does not mean that the Wish is gone. Remember Feast was defeated...

3: Nora held back at that time due to not being a hundred percent certain and needing to confirm it. It would have been very awkward/rude if she was wrong after all.

4: For the most part yes, marriage counseling could save Paris. At least for a bit, I won't say much but Emilie does still need her medicine. Adrien is in the background with the kwami getting there help.

5: Anxiety is working overtime in Marinette's head. Meanwhile Fear has a conspiracy board set up and Sadness's has a room full of memories.

6: Plagg will have a full legal battle so he can get custody! His lawyer, a clever fox named Trixx is more than ready to help! The rest of the kwami are getting tissues and will have a party for her at each major millstone.

7: A bit of both. She was walking into a situation that could have easily backfire, Marinette hates lying/deceiving people but there was also a third thing. This Marinette hasn't had any good social situations with anybody in a long time.

8: Well, she is slightly insecure because she started to release that she wasn't the best mother before the events of the series. Remember she was fully onboard with essentially isolating her son and now whenever Adrien has trouble with social situations or connecting with people Emilie blames herself.

9: Hmm, now that is a question. On one hand younger Marinette would still have the wish of being the knitting fairy due to how young she was back then. However, that wish would be overshadowed by her other childhood wish of being the best cat hero and making Plagg proud of her! So she would become Super Cheshire! As for Luka if the first situation happened he would investigate who Cheshire's civilian identity is then proceed to be horrified by what is going on followed by being beyond pissed at Juleka for her part in this girl's broken heartsong.

[namgyunation]

Hello, I'm back to yap more. 🐶(using this as my emoji until I eventually get off anon haha). I am a different anon than the other talking about mg coin and Nam-gyu and purity culture obv, but I have thoughts abt the same stuff and like yapping lmao. Sorry in advance for this actual tome i am about to write.

Ive been having the opposite experience than the other anon and it might be because I'm more on ig than here tbh but! I feel like theyve hit the nail on the head about purity in fandoms and i see the reactions im getting coming from that too. Because every time ive made a comment on a thread on ig unless its on a nam-gyu fan account i get comments acting like ive just said i sacrifice small animals to the devil.

for me Nam-gyu's actions aren't ok towards min-su (poor lil guy is scared just like him, i kept hoping theyd have a point where they made friends tbh).

And while I get why se-mi is pissed at nam-gyu, she did kind of irk me too (because what she said h reminded me of judgemental ex-friend I had when I was a drug user who would basically laugh at me and my addiction). But I don't think she deserved to die, of course not! If anything i wished the opposite. (I was stupidly hoping after thanos died that nam-gyu and min-su and se-mi would make a trio and really want to read a fic like this, or write one lmao).

Then, from another angle, I find Nam-gyus character easy to understand and i don't think understanding it has to be excusing the stuff @ min-su and se-mi, but i also don't see him as evil! Nam-gyu is my favorite in s2 and overall tbh even over gi-hum, sang-woo or thanos and yes, he is hot, but my fave in s1 is sang-woo and i wasn't attracted to him for example.

But i enjoy a character who 1. Has many aspects, theyre very interesting and people are usually never just one thing! (Also these arent real people so like you said we can like whoever!) & 2. I can actually relate to some aspects of him! Even while not being ok with the actions @ min-su and se-mi! I know what addiction is like, and people just treat you like you're worthless, not many consider why a person has addiction, they just assume it's about partying which for me mine was thanka to lots of abuse prior and during that time, so that abuse + people treating me like i was worthless for my addiction made me into a hater back then too. I was a little shit too lol. I promise I never forked anybody to death though 😈

in seriousness when Roh Jae-Won said people haven't ever respected Nam-gyu, I immediately thought he's been abused growing up and or had a bad partner like what was my situation, it just makes sense to me. (Tbh i already got that vibe so his confirmation sealed it).

I've come in contact with people saying he is evil111 and that I'm evil for not thinking he is (i got the same re sang-woo tbh) and it's like... being able to empathize with him while stilllll not being ok with him killing se-mi is possible. I think it's easy to see how it came about too, his mental state in there wasnt great already even when the one person he had some liking for was there, with that person dead, hes spiralling badly plus the pills hes gobbling, its a perfect storm. Again i dont think he should have killed her i can just see how the escalation happened. But like... yeah why can't I understand and still feel sad he killed her?!

I don't get why people have to put characters I absolutes either, and that goes for nam-gyu, thanos and mg coin. like they all have flaws, and then they all are just victims of the capitalistic scheme in the games and they all have their own issues. I can totally understand why thanos and nam-gyu hates mg coin (and I kept thinking of Elon musk because of the dalmatian/doge coin lmaooo), but also they could have been more cautious too like he said!

Verrryyyy tldr: I really agree about not having to apologise for liking and finding characters interesting, and theres something else weird some friends and i have picked up on with regards to these puritanical mindsets.

They seem to dehumanize characters they dont like? Like they have the idea that unless a character is a perfect cinnamon roll like Ali from s1 they dont deserve empathy? Examples I've seen people commenting and making jokes about how thanos and sang-woo was thinking of suicide, and some saying they hope the baby dies because mg coin is a deadbeat etc and I'm like...they're not even real people but the commenters are and the way they can't even have compassion for fictional characters, makes me wonder how they would be in a situation worse, ie: with someone they dislike in person.

Also! I was the anon who has the dog headcanon and omg yesss I'd be honored if you wrote about the dog in one of your fics. You're such a talented writer I'd love to read your vision for this. I can imagine him thinking of the dog waiting for him 🥺 but not saying anything about it because again my dude would rather die in squid game than admit to an emotion (even though hia emotions are still coming out anyway!!) i also hc him as a dog person and not just because i am one haha but for the reason you wrote. Dogs are amazing, once they love you they dgaf who you are. That aside I also think he'd really like and respect that they come from wolves and how if they choose to they can mess someone up with a bite! Even the cuddliest good boy can go feral if threatened or a person he loves is threatened and I think nam-gyu would relate to that too.

I always see people saying he's cat like but I don't see it! thanos is cat!coded and a cat guy to me too so I love that you see that as well. I actually hc that thanos has a playful orange cat who has his own Instagram and thanos writes captions and comments as the cat lmao 🐈

And yikes I'm so sorry this is recoed yapping I've been writing this for like 23 mins!

anonnn you are so dear to me lol. i agree with all of your thoughts here. long ass post incoming...

in the time it's taken me to respond to this, i've been spending a lot of more time on twitter, and i've seen these arguments x10 over there. it's been driving me nuts seeing the lengths ppl go to try and paint namgyu as a saint bc they're afraid it reflects badly on them as a person (when it doesn't), AND on the other end i've seen people GENUINELY arguing "oh well i like gyeongsu and youngmi who have done no wrong, while you like namgyu who is a horrible / problematic person!!!" and like. ACTUALLY trying to establish a moral high ground because of that.

so it gets to a point where i'm like. ok if you're a nam-gyu fan trying to defend his actions and make him seem like a good person...... stop! he's done horrible things! and that's ok!!!! put the tweet back in the drafts... but on the other hand. i can't even fully blame them bc WHY the fuck are people trying to act as if the morality of your favorite character fucking matters and says something about who you are as a person. like y'all are out here MAKING these ppl feel like they need to explain themselves for liking a character who does bad things and giving them a reason to act the way they do. it's an endless cycle

also, to quote the previous anon (whom of which i agree with wholeheartedly and am so thankful started the conversation) "when I stumble across a "Namgyu defender 2000" in the wild it only disappoints, but not surprises me." 

WHEN WILL IT ENDDDD. HOLY SHIT. this squid game shit gets serious!!! i'm out!

Ive been having the opposite experience than the other anon and it might be because I'm more on ig than here tbh but! I feel like theyve hit the nail on the head about purity in fandoms and i see the reactions im getting coming from that too. Because every time ive made a comment on a thread on ig unless its on a nam-gyu fan account i get comments acting like ive just said i sacrifice small animals to the devil.

yeah idk what it is about fandoms and constantly trying to one-up people and feeling like you're somehow better than someone else based on the character that you found the most entertaining / decided to make your fav. it's just so annoying. and yeah lmao i've had similar reactions when i talked about squid game to some of my irl friends and they find out my fav is nam-gyu. "isn't he the dude that did x and x??? he's so evil how tf could u like him?" i like shitheads. that doesn't mean i wanna do the things that he's done. I PROMISE. HE IS NOT REAL.

I've come in contact with people saying he is evil111 and that I'm evil for not thinking he is (i got the same re sang-woo tbh) and it's like... being able to empathize with him while stilllll not being ok with him killing se-mi is possible. I think it's easy to see how it came about too, his mental state in there wasnt great already even when the one person he had some liking for was there, with that person dead, hes spiralling badly plus the pills hes gobbling, its a perfect storm. Again i dont think he should have killed her i can just see how the escalation happened. But like... yeah why can't I understand and still feel sad he killed her?!

yeah! se-mi is literally my second fav lmao, and i wish she hadn't died. i LOVEEEE her, and i ofc didn't cheer when nam-gyu killed her nor do i try to pretend he didn't do it or was completely justified. even then, i can still love nam-gyu and have him as my fav and have my fun with making my fun little stories about him without thinking that what he did was ok.

was he in a killing game that preys on people's desperation and weak mental states, thus driving them to a state where they do drastic things, such as murder??? yes! was he on drugs and in the process of grieving that likely heightened his aggression and already fucked up mental state??? yes! did he still murder her violently and brutally in cold fucking blood and is horrible for doing so? ALSO YES! all of the above can be true. i can acknowledge all of it and still be a fan of his character.

i can take his situation and feelings combined with how clearly mentally weak he is as a person into account WITHOUT trying to say that his actions were excusable. IT'S POSSIBLE. and yet people act like namgyu fans are either on one side or the other—either being completely okay with namgyu's actions and praising him for it, or completely denying his actions and trying to make him too sympathetic / an angel.

idk im just tired. can we all just like shitty characters and allow others to like shitty characters while still agreeing that it doesn't inherently mean anything about who you are as a person.

I don't get why people have to put characters I absolutes either, and that goes for nam-gyu, thanos and mg coin. like they all have flaws, and then they all are just victims of the capitalistic scheme in the games and they all have their own issues. I can totally understand why thanos and nam-gyu hates mg coin (and I kept thinking of Elon musk because of the dalmatian/doge coin lmaooo), but also they could have been more cautious too like he said!

yup! mg coin fucked over a lot of ppl and ruined their lives, and i understand why nam-gyu and thanos hated him, but omfg. it's not like mg coin WANTED to fuck up everyone's lives, including his own. and yet, i still understand why those two hated and wanted to get back at him. at the same time, are nam-gyu and thanos still morons for putting so much of their trust and money into the coin while holding out for more cash?? yes! it was their fault too!!!! they're also assholes for being so mean to him. him fucking them over with the coin doesn't excuse their behavior. they're all victims, all with their own flaws and reasons for things, but none of them are ALL bad or ALL good. that's just how people are.

no one is an absolute. obviously, for the sake of the story, the director isn't going to completely flesh out every single character and give them insane levels of depth (i don't think he gaf either, he didn't even wanna make a season 2, LMAO). that's not the point of the story, nor does he or the show have the time for that. it's clear that nam-gyu's character was written to fit the role of an antagonist, and that's the purpose he's serving.

even then, people are people. no one is an absolute / completely one-sided at the end of the day. a shitty person can have moments of appearing 'normal' and maybe even good. THIS DOES NOT MAKE THEM ANY LESS SHITTY NOR DOES IT SUDDENLY EXCUSE WHAT THEY'VE DONE. and in terms of fictional characters, it also doesn't make that moment inherently out of character or 'mischaracterization.'

i'm just pulling this moment off the top of my head, but for example, when nam-gyu got his food and said 'thank you' to the guard with a smile. was that a nice moment where he was just.. normal? yeah. he was even kind of polite. i guess another scene is where he shows genuine concern for thanos's wellbeing after the first game, where he looks at him and asks 'are you okay?' and another when he cheers for the other players who are passing their games during the pentathlon.

he is undoubtedly an asshole, but he does have moments that show he IS capable of being a normal, regular person. not that this is like groundbreaking for his character lmao.

indenting the following for emphasis:

HOWEVER. these small moments of him being chill / normal does not and will not ever outweigh the bad things he's done / said. STILL, i'm TIRED of ppl acting like an artist / writer is mischaracterizing nam-gyu just because they made a work where he's not bashing people's skulls in with rocks, calling them bitches, and gnawing on their flesh 24/7, or when people say that it's somehow 'unrealistic' or "OMG YOU'RE TRYING TO MAKE HIM SEEM LIKE A VICTIM AND TRYING TO EXCUSE HIS ACTIONS!!!!" some of the meanest, most dogshit people on this planet are capable of having moments of normalcy and even kindness. it's reallyyy not that crazy also while i'm saying this, i'm going to make it clear that i know and acknowledge that there IS a huge issue of people that do in fact try to make him seem too sympathetic / try to use his seemingly bad past (according to roh jae-won's words) as a means for excusing his actions too much / woobifying the fuck out of him. i don't like that either, and i feel like that's a big reason why so many people are wary around nam-gyu fans. it also makes me sad bc that's just NOT him! i'm just tired of all nam-gyu fans getting lumped into this one big ball. for example, i'm working on stuff for my headcanon for a nam-gyu backstory, and obviously in it i'm going to write that he had a bad childhood and a fuck ton of bad experiences that shaped him into he who is now. however, i already know i'm gonna get shit for trying to 'victimize' him or trying to make him seem too sympathetic. like... bad people can be go through tough shit without it being a means for erasing or excusing his actions. for example, idk you could have a headcanon that nam-gyu could've gotten bullied in his past and have that as a reason for why he grew up to so vehemently bully min-su—but you can have that headcanon without thinking it suddenly makes nam-gyu's actions okay!!!!! a bad character can have bad things happen to them without it suddenly cancelling out the bad things they do / have done. something can be an explanation for a character's actions without being an excuse (i.e. nam-gyu being disrespected his whole life could act as an explanation as to why he's such a dick to everyone, but it will NEVER be an excuse). tldr: nam-gyu does not have to be stabbing someone and pushing them down the stairs in every single scenario he's in for it to be realistic lmao. he can have moments of being normal / good without it erasing the fact that he's objectively a bad person. people can also headcanon / theorize bad things that could've happened in his past to make him how he is today WITHOUT thinking that it suddenly excuses everything he's done. it's possible.

do these moments mean he's an angel and suddenly more sympathetic for what he's done? absolutely fucking not </3 i'm not trying to make any of his 'good' scenes into a think piece or anything, but basically what i'm trying to say—shitty people can have moments of appearing 'not shitty' without it being completely unheard of or unrealistic.

a bad character doesn't have to burning down buildings and chopping people's heads off 24/7 for them to remain 'in-character' and still be bad. on the other hand, a good character does not have to be good 24/7 for them to still be good. 'good' characters are allowed to have their moments of anger and imperfection and even do morally questionable things, and it won't take away from the fact they are overall a good person. 'bad' characters are allowed to have moments of normalcy or even kindness without it washing away and taking away from the fact that they do indeed, fucking suck.

a small example that comes to mind for 'good' character that is allowed to have their morally questionable moments while still being good—s2 gi-hun where he decides to let a few people die in order for his plan of the rebellion to work. did he withhold knowledge that let some people die? yeah (though it was for a good reason, it wouldn't matter even if it wasn't). does that make him any less of an objectively good character that clearly has his heart in the right place and cares about saving people? nope!

did nam-gyu have a few moments of kindness / normalcy? yeah. does that suddenly make him less of a bad person? fuckkkkk no. he's still an ass.

(I was stupidly hoping after thanos died that nam-gyu and min-su and se-mi would make a trio and really want to read a fic like this, or write one lmao).

omfggg...i dont plan on really posting much art on this blog again (unless it's fan art for someone's fic), so if u ever come off anon or if u use twit / insta, legit hmu because i have plans to post some comics based on a concept similar to this!!! i really wanna draw (or maybe write) something where they get out of the games and get thrown out on the street (similar to season 1) and have to make amends in their little trio for their own sake and survival due to forced proximity and their equally fucked situations.

Verrryyyy tldr: I really agree about not having to apologise for liking and finding characters interesting, and theres something else weird some friends and i have picked up on with regards to these puritanical mindsets. They seem to dehumanize characters they dont like? Like they have the idea that unless a character is a perfect cinnamon roll like Ali from s1 they dont deserve empathy? Examples I've seen people commenting and making jokes about how thanos and sang-woo was thinking of suicide, and some saying they hope the baby dies because mg coin is a deadbeat etc and I'm like...they're not even real people but the commenters are and the way they can't even have compassion for fictional characters, makes me wonder how they would be in a situation worse, ie: with someone they dislike in person.

totally agree.

i like mg coin, believe it or not, despite me being a nam-gyu fan. i think he's funny as fuck, although of course he has done a lot of 'bad' and questionable things too. despite that, i definitely get a little ???? when i see the ways some ppl talk about him, you don't need to supply a reason for disliking a character ofc, but eh it kind of makes me feel a bit off seeing ppl wishing certain horrible things on characters just bc they don't like them. even if i didn't like him, i'm not gonna hope that junhee or her baby dies </3

also in addition to that, some ppl are too comfortable bashing the actors. i see this especially with nam-gyu and mg coin. why tf are y'all out here insulting an actor—a real life HUMAN BEING with feelings—on their looks bc their character had a conflict with your fav. the squid games can't be THAT serious!!!! i wish ppl could just chill out and be normal

Also! I was the anon who has the dog headcanon and omg yesss I'd be honored if you wrote about the dog in one of your fics. You're such a talented writer I'd love to read your vision for this. I can imagine him thinking of the dog waiting for him 🥺 but not saying anything about it because again my dude would rather die in squid game than admit to an emotion (even though hia emotions are still coming out anyway!!) i also hc him as a dog person and not just because i am one haha but for the reason you wrote. Dogs are amazing, once they love you they dgaf who you are. That aside I also think he'd really like and respect that they come from wolves and how if they choose to they can mess someone up with a bite! Even the cuddliest good boy can go feral if threatened or a person he loves is threatened and I think nam-gyu would relate to that too.

I WILLLL. i have one sitting in the drafts rn and will hopefully be able to get to it soon once i finish up the fic i'm working on rn. :] i'm definitely a bit biased as a dog person haha.

i do totally think nam-gyu would appreciate the unconditional love. though, i also do see him as a secret cat lover that would try to act like he doesn't care, but deep down he gets offended asf when a cat runs from him and feels sooo proud when a cat shows a liking to him, especially if its owner is like "wowww she doesn't usually do that to ppl!"

ending this post by saying, i hope season 3 comes out soon so i can watch it, turn nam-gyu into my oc and continue to write fics and make art of him, and then live peacefully without the constant arguments over stupid shit lol.

Tuesdays | Jesper Fahey x GN Reader

There were some things big you loved about working for Kaz Brekker, like planning and executing risky heists, stealing jewels, money, or even once you had helped steal a really ugly hat.

And then there were the little things you liked about working for Kaz and with your bestfriends. Like staying up until the sun came up talking with your closest friends after a successful heist, or that one time you and Nina tried to bake together, and the kitchen was a disaster afterward.

All of those are great, but your absolute favorite thing about working for Kaz, was every single Tuesday night he would station you and Jesper to guard the door. Now, Tuesdays were typically uneventful, so you usually spent most of the night sitting side by side with your good friend, who you just so happened to have just about the biggest crush in.

One Tuesday night made everything change between the two of you.

The night was slow, just a few regulars and a handful of pigeons. So as usual for a Tuesday night, the two of you sat side by side infront of the door, chatting away.

"Do you think Kaz hates cats, or is he a cat kind of guy?" Jesper asked laughing.

"Oh, he's totally a secret cat lover." You say, making Jesper agree.

You continued the conversation by trying to guess which of your friends were dog or cat people. After a while, Jesper changed the subject.

"If I liked someone, how should I go about it?" He asked, looking over at you in a burst of confidence. He was definitely glad for how dark it was, so you couldn't see the faint blush on his cheeks.

"You've never had problems liking people before." You said with a teasing smile as you bumped your shoulder against his.

"But this person is different, I want to make sure they know that I really really like them. I would even say I love them. Not just for a fling, but they're someone I could easily see my forever with, and I don't know how to tell them that." Jesper said, now not being able to look at you. He just told you everything he's been wanting to tell you forever and, even though you didn't know that he was talking about you, he was nervous about what you would say.

"I say, you should tell them everything you just told me, Jes. If they don't love you back, then they're crazy, ok?" You said, sad that he loved someone that wasnt you so much, but you wanted to see him happy.

"Ok, yeah." Jesper said, turning to you.

"(Y/N), I love you, and I'm not going to repeat everything I already said because that was nerve wracking enough the first time. But I love you, and I would really love to kiss you right now, if that's okay?" He asked.

"Wait, you were talking about me?" You ask, knowing now that he was, but you wanted the confirmation.

"Yes, but if you don't-"

You cut him off by grabbing his face and kissing him, making him freeze for a moment before kissing back.

"Wow, that was as good as I had dreamed it would be." He said, looking a little dazed, grinning from ear to ear.

"Well, darling, now you don't have to dream about me anymore." You say, pecking him on the lips one more time before getting up as Kaz opened the door.

"We're closing, so you guys can come inside now. Get up Jesper." Kaz demanded, leaving the two of you.

"Come on, the sooner we help finish clean up the sooner we can go to bed." You said grinning at Jesper as you take his hand and help him up.

"You're bed or mine?" He jokes letting you lead him through the doorway and into the club.

"Whichever one you choose, now hurry up and get to work."

incohate 3am consideration about the emet solas distinction

i think about this a lot lately bc its crazy to me that for all their similarities i have totally different responses to them. veilguard spoiliops

emet was alive doing evil deeds the whole time. solas was not. it gave emet the time to develop his weird dissociative coping mechanisms, and sunk cost fallacy is a huge part of why he keeps barreling down the worst possible path beyond just Duty and Obligation and Ideological Commitment. there is a very real part of him that wants to stop, but he feels this part of him is a betrayal of what is moral and just. this is the part of him that engineers suicide by wol as a way to escape the trap he's stuck himself in.

solas by contrast Feels Bad in a way that comes across as very abstract, if not...self-serving, almost. i feel like when he talks about how bad he feels that his stupid rejoining Veil Nonsense is going to kill a bunch of people, there's some loophole in his brain that thinks that being kind of performatively sad about it balances out the moral scales. i havent gotten to this bit in veilguard yet but apparently he used to be a spirit of wisdom and got turned into pride (hence his name, i saw a theory about this ages ago and i love that it was true). i think that kind of fundamentally confirms a lot of what ive worried was an uncharitable read of his character; he's self-absorbed and self-aggrandizing and too full of certitude because it's in his nature as a corrupted spirit. like yes of course. i wasnt just being a bitch for finding it grating they did it on purpose the signs are all there

anyway i think like. in more ways than i had initially thought they are also similar. they both have a kind of self-serving way of dealing with their emotions and a certain selfishness to them, and of course emet-selch is a deeply prideful person. it's just that emet also has a deeper layer of intense complicated self-loathing that i think is more humanizing and solas is patting his own ass all the way down.

i also do kind of sympathize with emet's grief and reasoning more. he's more concerned with bringing dead people and a way of life back and honoring his duty to them than he is with the vague idea of better magic. not that either of them are right, but it's easier to look at the massive swathe of corpses in emet's wake he's left for the sake of His Dead People and feel an understanding because Everybody Has Dead People, I Miss Mine Too. i could give a fuck that they got rid of ancient bluetooth when they burned the library of alexandria or whatever. massively oversimplifying but still.

it's also like...we see the worlds both of them lost. emet's was kind of a rotten nightmare for those who were unable to meet its standards, but on a superficial level a paradise, and one can understand his attachment to it as someone who fit in well and was deeply respected. also he is not responsible for what happened to end that society. the ancient world in da was like. hi welcome to slavery. just slavery forever. unbelievable constant slavery and empire. and solas was like, i think i hate slavery world, i think i will do something drastic about slavery world, and now he's sad because in liberating the masses he lost out on ancient bluetooth. and now things suck in a different way but still.

and all that is not to say emet is morally better. emet is an infinitely worse person than solas if you're looking at raw facts. it's more about which of them i feel more sympathetic for on a personal level and which one of them grates me less. i think like.

to sum it up i guess, i feel like emet has a more genuine, vulnerable interior that he's running damage control about all the time. that's a very real thing and i find it easy to connect to. solas. well actually veilguard genuinely distills this to its bare essence lol bc hrding talks about how he always seemed lonely and i think rook is like "hard not to be when you hold yourself above everybody else." i think solas kind of "likes" being miserable because it's part of an image of solas he's selling himself, like, this hard-up heroic figure making impossible choices and Nobody Understands and blah blah blah. emet is not really doing that. i think he gestures at it but ultimately his main reaction to the distress and alienation his own actions create in his life is to make more guys about it. and also try to gnaw his own leg off like an animal in a trap. and fuck a guy half his age. what i'm saying is that i think his suffering is a lot more genuine

and related to that, the thing is both of them could stop at any time. but i think emet's complicating factors (sunk cost fallacy, explicit duty, genuine belief in saving lives/reviving the dead) still make more sense than solas' (.....ok well you guys are alive and your way of life i guess has some merit but i have to still the veil Because everything is different thoughhh). maybe im misremembering solas' exact reaction here but that was the impression i got at the end of trespasser and it was very like, "Bro you are doing this to yourself at every turn stop acting like there's a gun to your head about it." emet doing it to himself is like, "oh honey. you are doing this to yourself :("

[fairytaehl]

not a drama, but the only book-to-movie i ever really liked was "the fault in our stars" bc john green had personal direction in it, so it was pretty true to the book. i know thats not always easy to do, but if youre going to do "based off the novel" at least like... base it off the novel in a cohesive and dutiful way?

i also interpreted him with the kids as seeing him and his sister, which could be more of the reason why he wasnt bothered by it, but i also think ziqi is a big softie under it all even before miaomiao gets to him.

wait, i feel a bit foolish. when exactly did yao accuse fuyi in ep 12? otherwise, regarding your other points, i also completely agree that her memory loss also degrades the drama. not enough for me to feel strongly about that aspect, but still. i did feel like it was a cop out, given that it doesnt seem to have any clear reason, it just Starts happening (to my memory, i havent finished my rewatch), but if i wanted to be doyalist about it, i could make the excuse that since its supposed to be a dream, shes remembered more of the beginning, and as it gets further into the dream it starts to get foggy and dissipate, similar to when you wake up, you can remember a lot of your dream at first, but less later. idk, thats a complete excuse though LOL.

RIGHT? i also said "how is his percent capping at 20% right now" especially when he leans in so close to her and goes in for that hug. could he have been afraid to feel any more for her since he was sending her away?

i also wish that they had more "heres how it happened" verse "heres how its happening" but i suppose she changes so much, and with her memory loss, it becomes useless to do so, i guess.

side note, the bubbles werent CGI. i watched a behind the scenes and they actually have a guy with a bubble machine who slides in LOL. it was pretty funny.

yes! i do think they had a period of friendship, something i aim to explore when im done with my rewatch in fanfics. first of all, understandably so, but we got ROBBED on their journey to the imperial capital. they showed us a supercut of them having fun and getting along, but oh my god, theres so much more to that that we're missing! and we dont know ziqis percentage for a LONG time because of the dust demons not being there, so we have to make it up in our heads. i know thats already when ziqi they were feeling romantic towards each other, but they also danced around it quite a bit, and i feel like that time couldve been more bonding moments.

other than that, i think we dont have much time in the drama for them to have those moments, which is a little sad to say, but i think her not being afraid of his demon form completely shattered any form of friendship. it was like "oh. i want to be with you forever now." and thats fine, because i dont need "enemies to friends to lovers" or whatever. enemies (one-sided) to basically lovers is also good to me.

wow, you totally shook my world by saying that miaomiao took off his robe and saw him shirtless. we were not just robbed anymore. we were BURGLARIZED.

yeah i can agree, esp in regards to her seeing romance stuff, and i touch upon this in my review of ep 6 (basically finished, just missing some images), but i actually thought miaomiao was in her early 20s. is it confirmed anywhere? and because of that, i didnt feel any sort of way about how she acts, because i know people in their early 20s who act like theyre in high school. hell, i know people in their 30s who act that way too LOL. but its definitely prominent in dramas because thats just what seems to be more normalized. god forbid we have (forgive me for using a korean term here) female leads who arent doing aegyo.

ooooohh. yeah even after watching the whole drama through i didnt think it answered that question. and the last few eps were a blur for me so i dont even remember the charm demon stuff LOL. i just remember thinking, "damn! ziqi really loves to get himself caught into traps!"

i watched the show only earlier this month, so i was not present at all during airing, but LOL. as a big kpop fan, i wouldnt have thought anything of it, because if they cant dance, GET OFF THE STAGE!

Comments to lgief rewatch ep. 4

@fairytaehl

I wrote my comments as a post so I can format it for easier readability, and the reblog was locked for your post.

"which is nuts because why the fuck are you a demon catcher? "

He's a demon hunter because this is what Mu Yao wants. The drama hand-waves away the hardship and pain that comes with being a demon hunter.

In the novel, its clear that he doesn't want Mu Yao to be in a profession where she gets hurt and might die, but this is what she wants to do, so he can only support her despite the physical cost. He is often badly injured and comes close to dying in order to save strangers because he doesn't want to disappoint Mu Yao. It's Miaomiao that says while she finds it admirable that Mu Yao and Liu Fuyi are altruistic saviors, it's fine that he doesn't want to sacrifice himself to save strangers. He's not wrong for feeling that way. That she also feels this way.

"i know hes in the wrong. i know it was his fault and he had bad intentions, and his words in response to her were also not very kind. but… placating her and telling her he doesn't like arguing with her, that sister knows best, just because he cant deal with hearing her say these hurtful things anymore, and he cant handle it if his sister has such a negative view of him, all while hes trying to smile. its genuinely hurting him internally, as we see in a moment. "if you think it was me, then it was me." it was basically you, and it makes me frustrated to see him so upset over his own doing. i feel bad but i dont. hes trying so hard not to cry, but goddammit, you had this coming you bastard."

I love how you phrase it! I thought their conversation was so, so good. That Mu Yao is being too harsh, but Mu Sheng did do something wrong, and they both know it. Their complicated, messy relationship is so interesting, and I wish we saw more of it.

"crushing the flower in front of her and smirking as he does so… sir. please have mercy. a silent "this is what i do to fresh, pretty flowers" a.k.a. Her."

"crossing your arms across your chest is a physical tell for defensiveness and closing off yourself to the conversation~"

Your observation skills are so good! You catch so many little details. I love all the body gestures and movements that Esther and Ding Yuxi do in the drama. I wonder how much was improvised vs part of the script.

"i wont lie, this whole bit about how she knows about the ledger and letting it slide confused me"

Agree, and I thought it was weird he doesn't ask her why she wants to burn the Mu's ancestral map. 

In the novel, it's because she read the original work and she has nightmares about it after she transmigrates (I don't think this is shown in the drama), so she knows what he's going to do. BUT, she doesn't directly confront him about it. Unlike in the drama, she's very cautious and tries her best to not reveal any information that Lin Yu wouldn't know in front of Mu Sheng.

"ok, i need to ask, anyone understand these heart lake things?"

My guess is they're supposed to visually reflect the change in his emotional state. For example, in ep 18's script.

"△ The lotus in Mu Sheng’s heart lake suddenly turned completely black, leaving only half of the petals still red.

Demonized Mu Sheng: (Chaotic electronic music) I want... to kill him."

"the one where she throws him off entirely by acting all obsessed had him pause as to why she was going to such lengths to lie, and what her goal was. yes, he wanted to get her out because he doesnt like her at all, but that was so nefarious-seeming that he just… walked away. also, it was weird."

On one hand, I thought that scene was hilarious. Its my favorite scene in the drama, and I'm entertained enough to not think too deeply about it. This scene doesn't exist in the novel, but there are ones where he reacts similar-ish if you want an explanation.

In the novel, she constantly seeks him out to increase his favorability % and shows concern and for one reason or another will end up hugging him, and this leads to him letting her off each time. It's easy to see that he's touch-starved and longs for affection. Once he likes her even just as a friend, he can easily be bribed to look the other way with hugs or agree to her requests.

On the other hand, I think it would make way more sense if the drama followed the novel's scene order and had them playing 5-in-a-row games all night early on, and we heard his thoughts so the audience knows why this marks a shift in how he views Miaomiao.

How this is the first time he's learning something that's not for Mu Yao's interests, how he's been pretending to be bad at Go (and his skills as a demon hunter) to get Mu Yao's attention, etc. Its easy to see that he and Mu Yao haven't outgrown their relationship dynamic from their childhood, which was fine then, but has become an unhealthy codependency as adults.

If that happened before Miaomiao's fake confession scene, his response to it would feel less weird.

---

Some random thoughts after reading your post. We eventually find out that Mu Sheng has always known that the Resentful Woman is hiding inside Mu Yao, so what was his long-term plan? Instead of letting her know so they can work together to get rid of the Resentful Woman, he's deciding that he knows what's best for her. And, this isn't a problem that can go away if he hides it. The Resentful Woman will only grow stronger and be harder to defeat. So frustrating.

This is like Guo Xiu unilaterally making the decision to tamper with the villagers' memories. He's playing god, and there's no consequences to him other than his guilt. The script's narrative pushes the idea that this is for their own good and he makes up it up to them with his building talisman, but all he's really done is rob them of seven years. It's extra bad because the median lifespan for people in ancient times is low.

These villagers can't emotionally move on. In practical matters, this is an ancient world, and it would be harder for women if their husbands die and they don't remarry. The author set the novel to take place in a fantasy version of the Tang Dynasty, where it was fine for women to remarry. Had Guo Xiu been honest with them or just done nothing so they know people are disappearing, they could have chosen to move away from this dangerous place.

Maybe, some villagers would choose to throw their lives away to look for their loved ones, but that's their choice.

---

Your recap and the timing of your screenshots for their expressions are so good, especially Mu Yao and Mu Sheng's conversations at the beginning of the episode!

[momoshin]

can i request a drabble where you're out with ryujin at a mall and a random girl is hitting on her, and you get jealous because ryujin lets it happen so she can have a reason to tease you, and you get home and mark her up and you end up riding her strap. i would like if reader calls ryu daddy too, thank you in advance and if you dont want to i understand

she knows she’s hit the goal when you snatch your hand from hers and walk faster to the exit, leaving her to follow comfortably and slowly with a smug smile on her face. your speedwalk would get you nowhere as she was the one driving, you needed her to leave anyways. so forgive her for snorting when she sees you resting against the car waiting for her, biggest pout on your face (though not a bit sad) and eyes almost squinted shut.

“what’s wrong princess?” she takes a look at you and presses the right button to unlock the car. walking enough to open your door. it’s not like you can stop her, so you just get in the passenger seat with a last glare at her, only uncrossing your arms when you’re inside. ryujin in reaction, let’s out a mocking scoff and closes your door, and only when she’s starting the car does she talk to you again. “not gonna answer me?”

silence. that’s what you return. she was expecting you to throw a fit, so she could fuck it out of you after, but not the silent treatement, not that. your girlfriend hated the silent treatment, specially when she knew she deserved it. so she runs her hands through her hair and sighs before finally driving out of the parking spot. you keep it up until you’re home, throwing your purse and (ryujin’s) jean jacket on the kitchen table.

“you’re really not gonna tell me what’s got you like this?” she drops her keys in the table too, following you to your shared room and watching you undress

“do i really need to? do i need to ryujin? don’t act like you didn’t know she was flirting with you. and don’t act like you weren’t flirting back.” you furiously undress, only keeping your bra and panties.

“oh baby, i only did it to mess with you” she tries to wrap her arms around you, but you don’t allow it, instead getting under the covers.

“yeah, well look at me laugh. ha ha ha. it was so funny. happy?” it’s only 5:34 pm, but she’s used to you doing this whenever you don’t want to talk to her. so she waits around clueless to what to do.

“hey.” her voice is warning. though she eventually gets in bed with you, only she’s wearing everything except her plaid blazer and shoes. “im sorry baby. you know i only love you.” even tho you don’t answer. you don’t push her arms away when she wraps them around you a second time. pulling you to her chest and kissing your shoulder. “please forgive me. i’ll do anything.”

“...anything?” the word itches your interest and you are caught turning your head slightly, looking at your girlfriend through the corner of your eye as you wait for her to confirm.

“yeah” she tries to kiss the corner of your lips and succeeds when you don’t pull away, only to get out of the covers and her embrace to look for the very known strap in the special drawer. you don’t really say a word as you climb into bed and between her legs, offering her the toy biting your lip with a seductive gaze.

ryujin looks at it for a second, and then back at you, smiling slowly before she takes it and rids herself of her jeans and underwear. quickly and expertly adjusting the straps around her body so the toy was perfectly positioned. she ends up removing everything but her bra, but that’s the next thing you rip off your body. leaving on the panties so they would block the view of your pussy and the strap that she so much liked to watch.

carefully, you straddle her lap, squealing when the toy grazes over your clothed clit. you’re not riding her just yet, just grinding against the plastic cock while holding on to her shoulders, before traveling your hands up to the sides of her neck and jaw. you kiss her, so slow and wet, that it has the both of you melting into the other. her eyes are too busy looking at the damp spot on your panties and how you slowly and torturously sway your hips, that she fails to notice your teeth ghosting over her pulsepoint. until you bite.

“ow! baby what the fuck?” she raises her voice in surprise, but doesn’t pull away. just hearing your guilty giggle before you continue to press wet kisses along her skin.

“didn’t like the way you were blatantly flirting with that girl” between every word there’s a kiss to her neck, making a trail from the side to her larynx. “maybe if i make these they’ll know to back off” you don’t wait for an answer, and instead suck and bite her skin again, until purple-reddish marks start to appear where you traced.

she hisses and gasps as you make your way down, her hands are hot on your ass, under your underwear so she can be skin to skin with you. her hums fill your ears when you unhook her bra without stopping the softer kisses to her skin, only now her chest instead of her neck. the only time you stop is to slip your underwear to the side and slowly slide on the strap.

the way you throw your head back and hiss, biting your lip with a hand on her neck to support yourself drives her crazy. one of her hands has bunched up your underwear so tight that you think she might snap it, and the other presses a burning spank against your ass. you kiss her slow as you start to move your hips and then again start to trail kisses until you reach the spot where you last were.

you look up at her as you ride her and let your lips trail around, going as far as to kiss around her right nipple, pressing kisses here and there. in reaction she arches her back, inevitably, and let’s out the loudest gasp you’ve heard from her, just as the hand she wasnt using to hold your panties tangles in your hair “what’s got you so assertive today princess? jealousy?”

she never moans. she’s more of a groan/ growl person but when you wrap your lips around her erect nipple and suck perfectly, she has a hard time containing herself. ryujin pushes her chest to your face, smiling at the way you suck on her tits and still manage to look up at her for approval, only interrupting the eye contact when she pushes your hips roughly on the strap, causing it to go deeper and make you hiss around her tit. “it really pissed me off” you remind against her lips as she chased yours for a kiss

“forgive me please? im really sorry” her hands leave goosebumps on their wake as they run up your back before she brings them forward to cup your tits, her thumbs playing with your nipples causing your hips to stutter

“i don’t know if you mean it” you exaggerate, hand on her jaw as you slide up and down the strap breathing heavy gasps into her mouth. “prove that you’re sorry to me daddy”

it’s like her eyes darken as she looks up from your lips to your eyes and flips the two of you over, immediately grabbing your legs and pushing them to your chest and over her shoulders, her skin slamming against yours when she starts thrusting at an animalistic pace inside of you.

“this what you want? hm? want me to fuck you so hard you can’t walk tomorrow?” ryujin growls, gritting her teeth as she looks you dead in the eye loving how you can’t do anything but part your lips and let loud moans and affirmations pass through them. “i didn’t even hear her name- didn’t care-“ she starts, but you stop her when you cup the nape of her head

“you’re pushing it bringing her up right now”

“sorry baby, just wanted you to know i would never do that to you. i thought it’d be fun, i was wrong” she never stops fucking you, and the words come out her lips so effortlessly you wouldn’t think her hips are rapidly slamming against yours. “am i forgiven?”

“don’t do it again” you groan, digging your nails to her skin and pulling her hair at the same time. “but yes- forgiven.”

“good” her lips press against your jaw repeatedly before she stops thrusting with the only intent to wrap your legs around her waist and continue, but she was too slow, she gave you enough time to flip the two of you over with whatever energy you had left and wrap your hand around her throat, pushing her flat to the mattress when you start swiveling your hips in figure eights. “baby..” she warns

“shh. this is how you make it up to me” you respond, closing your eyes when you realize how close you are and how good it makes you feel to have her under you unable to do anything but stare at your cunt and hold your hips.

“yeah- enjoy this. it’s the closest you’ll be to topping me” she snorts, spanking your ass and sending your hips buckling forward as your lips opened in a gasp.

“do that again, please”

“oh.. you want to be spanked princess?” she does it again like you asked. and again. and again. “not even when you try to dom me can you stop being a slut”

“s-shut up” you moan, speeding the pace of your hips and tightening your hand around her, eyes shut tighter than before when you cum moaning loudly both her name and all the names you call her in bed. you shake, and you cry out of overstimulation and sensitivity when she presses her thumb to your clit and rubs roughly, making you cum one more time before flipping the two of you over.

“telling me to shut up? not a good idea” she smirks “looks like you’ll be getting punished after all.”

Thoughts on 11.21...

Caryl: i really dont know what to think anymore. I think i'll wait for the show's end (unless something really BIG happens for them before) to give an overall review on how it "ended" for them, because right now i dont know what to think anymore. But yes, Daryl is the most important person in her heart/life and it showed in her speech to Maggie, and yes, the holding hands moment was more than nice. But i sooo want to tell her "stop thinking you re not good enough for him! Stop it!" That's all i can say for now.

As for the rest of the episode:

- as i've said in my sort of review for 11.20, its been apparently confirmed by AK and/or others that Rosita and Gabe have broken up somehow sometime off screen. And it kind of showed, its true, in this episode. That said, i still feel the love between them. Of course if you dont like them u wont agree and thats fine but since they grew on me, i believe they re still very much connected, and you can feel how much he loves her. As for her, she's colder, but to me she's always been using this kind of cold attitude as a coping mechanism before (with Eugene, Sasha...) so it doesnt mean that she doesnt care. If anything, it means she does. Hard to explain. Plus it was kind of cute how they were sort of bickering "lets follow the train" "but there is no train" . I dont know. I loved them seperately and wanted nothing more than to see them happy after the mess that was Abe for her and Jadis/Anne for him, so it wasnt hard for me to love them together.

- Again, Gabriel is amazing, the way he acted towards the soldier... i remember when he finally tried to make things right back in S6, how Rick was rightfully still not trusting him, and i was thinking please persevere Gabriel dont give up and im so glad that he came around and now everyone trust him fully. That hug with teary Carol? Could u have imagine this back in S5? Im so proud of him

- Maggie and Carol moment was all i wanted since 6.13. I remember when i used to think: ok she is close mainly to Daryl, Rick, Morgan, Zeke, and its great, but what abt Maggie and Michonne? What abt female friendships?After 6.13, we were starved of scenes between Maggie and Carol, and we litteraly had to wait til 9B to see her really starting to interact with Michonne (correct me pls if im wrong). So im glad in s11 we have all those little meaningful moments between her and Maggie

- seing Kelly so lost and scared and sad broke my heart. Can someone hug her please? Im glad Zeke stopped her from doing something stupid, though u cant blame her for trying. He literally saved her life here. Its nice to see them having scenes together. And then Connie saying we need to find her coz i know she's scared...💔

- Negan/Ezekiel: u have no idea how emotional it made me to have Ezekiel, without giving names, mentioning what Negan has done to Dwight, Sherry (and many other women/people). Especially if you follow ftwd, u might understand why it made me emotional. Also, having Negan say "yeah i havent forgotten either and i know i dont deserve shit" ... i was like fiiinallyyy... i feel we 're slowly, thanks to Annie and the baby, going back to the Negan from Here's Negan. Which means a man with flows, but not a monster. And it was abt time somebody mentioned in the show that the pb with Negan wasnt only what he did to Glenn and Abraham (whom i love dearly), but also everything else. And no, i dont even hate him anymore. But what Zeke said was much needed for me.

My thoughts on Chihayafuru's endgame

so first i wanna give some context bc i thinks is important to know that i started the anime *checks clock* yesterday so yeah i guess you could say i got invested, and well yeah i havent read the manga but after many disappointments with love triangles in anime i felt the need to check how the manga ends, just to confirm how i never get what i want lol. Yes im privy to most of the development that happens in the manga but i love giving my opinion on stuff i have no idea by just making it up and guessing. That said lets begin with my thoughts

Yes i was mainly a Chihaya / Arata shipper and after finding out who she ends up with- i get it and it makes absolute sense

Since the beginning i made up with the idea that this probably would not go the way i wanted to bc i know my luck and how anime works, and to be fair i knew that no matter how it ended as long as the three of them were still friends i would be happy. am i sad? yes, but Taichi is a great guy you just cant hate him bc he doesnt shy away from showing how much he cares, its just that... man im a sucker for characters like Arata and their whole narrative

In my mind Chihaya and Arata are soulmates, they were meant to find eachother, change eachother's lives for the better, just not in a romantic way, they clearly had feelings for eachother with their whole blushes and sparkle eyes, but i see it more like a puppy love very intense first love, not exactly like something that lasts all your like u kno? that said i just love how they complement and admire eachother, hes the one that thaught her the thing she loves the most.

On the other side Taichi and Chihaya's dynamic is the perfect base for a relationship, they are the most comfortable with eachother than with anyone else and well the whole best friends to lovers trope wich is not my fave lol

like i said i havet read the manga so i dont know what happens but i would love a bit more development in Arata/Chihaya's dynamic after the confession, maybe them becoming closer with the purpose of being something more than friends and then being all like "ah, this doesn't feel right" just to realize what they felt wasnt actually love but with a now stronger friendship, and then eventually develop her feelings for Taichi, or at least getting some kind of closure for Arata and Chihaya's feelings, but from what ive heard im not too close ??

anyways my boy Arata was done dirty as well as the shippers (u cant change my mind that there was purposefully a lot of effort in making us believe something was gonna happen, just evil, but ive seen worse so..) but i get why Chihaya/Taichi ended up together

𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐘 𝐊𝐈𝐃𝐒 ⇉  skz with pregnant!reader 

bangchan x reader | first part of dad!skz

↬ genre; fluff & a tinge of angst

↬ warnings; pregnancy, birth, talk of vomiting, and lots of cursin

↬ notes; fuck i love bangchan sm and im excited dis the first part of daddy!skz o whateva

from the moment he knew, he honestly was scared at first and just wanted to pretend like he wasn’t going to be a father

he needed time to evaluate it all, he was honestly confused and scared, he was nervous and doubtful of his parenting skills and providing eighteen years + many years after for his child

u were nervousssss as helllllllllllllll to tell him what was up

“well, i’m- y’know- baby?” you tried to get out, ur words were hella scrambled and he was confused before he came to the realization of what you meant 

silence which is vv concerning 

u knew this was a shot in the dark sorta, u two weren’t even public on the relationship let alone public about a pregnancy?

u guys ended up taking a break for about a month, really not knowing what to say to each-other

u two were afraid, which was normal, u just rly didn’t expect it from chan of all people to walk away from u

anybody else u could expect,, but this?? this was unlike him & u were more scared by that

he wound up at your place, box in hands

(u were kinda at ur breaking point bc u thought he was returning ur things)

(newsflash it was his stuff)

“i’m sorry, i just— being a father? being a parent, i don’t.. i don’t know anything about it, but nobody does when they become one. so, i’m gonna figure it out with you.”

going through the first sonograms w him & crying a lot while u two talked about the future

ur hormones r going to be the death of chan

u are 0-100 holy mooolyy

hes very careful with his choice of words and how he delivers them, not wanting to upset you

chans first present for the baby is a kangaroo, with a matching little joey 🥺

he also is surprisingly a very big fan of kanga from winnie the pooh, which he buys winnie the pooh stuff for the baby JSJSJSJSJJS just bc kanga & roo remind him of u n the baby 🥺🥺🥺🥺 (i rly need to stop)

u were a lil big, having a cute big bump to pair with ur pregnancy, the inevitable announcement was needed to happen if u were ever going to step outside again

chan rly didnt want to announce it bc he didnt know what peoples reactions would be :(

he knew he was only twenty-seven so some people might think it was a bit too early to have kids, but he thought it was perfect the way it was

u guys hid it until u couldn’t, sparking little rumors of ur pregnancy but u both decided not to confirm them

chan obsessing and literally worshipping you in your third trimester

u in his shirts? he was fuckin over

kisses and cuddling all the time, no matter how tired u were or he was, u two would either fall asleep while doing so or lay there for awhile before u were like

“ok i gotta pee, help me up!!”

no but frfr this baby was torturing u the last stretch of ur pregnancy

it seemed that anything u ate either made u throw up or gave u heartburn

ur stretchmarks were getting worse & it seemed like u were getting bigger everyday

u were very insecure the last months, just cause a lot of comments were talking about a bit of weight gain in ur face, which fuck,, u would never be hurt by some comments but with ur hormones and KNOWING u have put on weight, u rly didn’t feel the same

ofc chan knows whats up and hes there to tell u some r e a l s h i t

“okay, yes. you have put on weight, but you’re pregnant. that’s the good thing about it, you’re healthy okay? whether you had a small bump and no extra weight put on or a big bump and extra weight put on, you are carrying a baby. you can lose the weight when it’s over, right? you don’t need to feel this way, okay? i’m the only one who you should listen to about your appearance, i’m here to tell you the truth. you are beautiful. you are the morher of my child, that’s what you are. you’re not ugly, or fat, you’re not anything bullshit that people say to you.”

when u started crying, chan panicked

“nononononoono, don’t cry baby!”

his arms were wrapped around you so tightly, feeling your face pressed against his shoulder and your arms around his neck

“i love you.” u would be rly quiet and his heart would break at the sound but ur i love you, he just— it was so real and he’d never felt like this before

“love u too.” he’d say that shit so proudly and kiss the TOP OF UR HEAD SO SOFTLY 🥺🥺🥺

when u finally went into labor, u were like wow this hurts a F U CK TOO NNN

u woke up to the bedsheets soaked underneath u, pins n needles were all u could feel

u kinda sat there for ten minutes, scaring urself n making urself nervous when u started doubting yourself and feeling the pain become stronger

ur hands were s hh aa kkyy

u would tap chan so softly and feel a little frustrated he didnt wake up but like how tf was he supposed to feel that 😳

u kinda started crying now because u were STRESSED and him not waking up (no shit ur little tap wasnt gonna work but) it felt like he was gonna sleep forever

so ur hands pressed on chan’s shoulders, shaking them a little bit and letting out a,

“chris?” which ur voice was quiet as hell, shaky as hell, and wavering as you whispered to him

him opening his eyes to see your teary ones n hes just so sad that his heart drops 🥺

he never wakes up quicker though and hes sitting up fast as fuck

“what? what’s wrong?”

ur literally sobbing and hes freaked out by this because u have never cried like this

he kinda just wants to go back to bed since ur just crying but he knows smth is probably wrong because ur SOBBING so

“my water broke.”

now its his turn to be nervous cause fuck he is feeling so unprepared

he said fuck shoes on u, slipping u into his own clothes and helping u into the car so u two could go

did i forget to mention the hospital was an hour away 😳

he wants to pull over hearing u whine n grip his hand, noticing ur quietness and ur little mumbles everytime u rest ur head back after a contraction

he doesn’t give a fuck, he will carry u into the hospital and then put u in a wheelchair from the entrance so u don’t have to walk

u have a feeling maybe hes more nervous than u but atm ur fuckin close to losing it over the pain

u two are settled into a room, epidural done and just trying to make u comfortable now

u were seven centimeters which u still had to wait but u both knew u were close to meeting ur baby

when u are at ten centimeters though, chan is just a ball of tears and he’s just so proud of you

your hand was in his the whole time, chan’s lips near ur ear and he’s just whispering for u to concentrate on him and how much u wanna meet the baby

“i—i can’t do it!” 🥺🥺

you were honestly so drained and ur forehead was laced with sweat, ur hands sweaty and shaking in his own from being nervous and slowly becoming weaker as u put ur strength into pushing

“baby, you are probably what? three pushes, maybe you can cut it to one and a half. alright? you can do this baby, we’re so close to meeting our baby.”

that’s all u needed n chan knew it

surprise surprise,, chan was right about one and a half

“it’s a boy!!” which chan would press his lips to yours so quickly, u two crying and letting out watery laughs as your baby boy cried 🥺

he hasn’t felt this much pride and love since debut or releasing an album or tour, he couldn’t express how gifted he was to have deserved the gift of being a father

ofc they introduce you both to kangaroo care, chan so ready to take off his shirt and feel his baby boy’s skin against his own warm skin and he did so

then it was ur turn to hold him the same way, chan asking u if he could pull down ur gown so u could hold him like he did

that was the picture he needed, snapping it and getting you holding the baby against your naked (ofc ur gown was covering ur breasts) chest, your son sleeping soundly with his hands pressed against you

u two were parents now, u both had learned about pregnancy together and now u two were going to explore parenthood together

welcome to the community! i was wondering if i could get iida dating a black s/o who's in class 1B and class 1A finds out?

Gracias! Here ya go friend. People really be sleeping on my boy but he ain't a bum and he's built so I be 🤪🤪🤪 for him. Have a lovely day!

Tenya Iida

It wasnt that you guys were "trying" to hide it

It just happened to be something that wasn't brought up on both ends.

Tenya is a very private person and very rarely displays any pda. 

You respected that about him and supported him, so you kept your affections to a private setting, well, for the most part you did.

So naturally, people didn't assume much of your relationship and thought you guys are just friends.

He assumed most people would self destruct if they saw him wrapped up with a baddie. Especially one as popular as you.

You were in 3-B but definently the talk of the school, people hit on you a lot. You're a transfer student with beautiful black skin and eyes that seemed too damn warm for your own good.

You politely rejected everyone, because you already found someone. 

He's still suprised it's him but he's not gonna ruin a good thing with his doubts.

Even him with his penchant for rule, he was compelled to break em for you.

He'd find himself breaking his own rules when your classes combined and holding your hand. 

"Oh so it's cool when you initiate it but when I do it I get a lecture."

He's quick to fluster and attempts to stammer out a nonsense explanation. 

"Yeah, mhmm, keep that energy." You take your hand back from him playfully and he just looks so sad.

"Fine, we can hold hands, but you're not allowed to get on me next time I do it."

Sometimes you two wouldn't be able to see each other almost all day and settled for a nice evening walk around the campus. 

Ochako and Tsuyu were out on a walk as well and saw you two in the distance.

They dismissed it as nothing, they've seen you two before and you guys were just pals...

What they haven't seen before now was that arm (politely, he a gentleman) wrapped around your waist. 

Their suspicions were confirmed when you twirled around to laugh at a joke he made and buried yourself in his embrace. 

Needless to say, y'all got an earful. 

Your respective class group chats were blowing up. 

"Oh. I think they found out about us." You show him a dissertation length text from Monoma in between supportive messages from your classmates. 

"It appears my class found out as well." The girls were gushing over you and they're glad you two are dating, but mainly because it gives them an excuse to get closer to you.

 The guys were pissed that Iida was "hiding" you.

"So you weren't gonna introduce us to your partner? I thought we were bros."

...This is the chat for studies, please move this conversation to the general Kaminari."

"I hate it here."

Iida returned to his dorm after walking yov back and was immediately berated for not bringing you back. 

"They should already be in their own building by this time, I couldn't of brought them anyway."

"I hope you know you're the only one who cares about that," snickered Mina. 

"Well, yes, but-"

"You wouldnt rat on yourself would you?" 

"...no"

"Then bring em back for movie night!"

In less than 10 minutes you were at the door, a cheer erupted across the commons room. 

From then on, 3-A made it a point to include you in as many activities as possible and overall treated you like a part of the family.

frankie the undead with hanahaki disease?

Frankie the undead with hanahaki disease

When the disease first started, it just began with a pain on his chest

He knew about the hanahaki disease but he didn't think he would get it. So he thought maybe it was just a random chest pain

He knew that someone could get it when you fell in love but...he wasn't in love, was he?

He always made sure to not get too close to anyone, how could he possibly like someone?

But the day when he woke up and felt like he had something in his throat, and finally coughed out a flower petal, he finally realized it.

He was in love.

At first he was pissed off at himself.

How could he possibly fall in love? How could he be such an idiot to do so? It's the number one thing he always told himself not to do.

He kept thinking of y/n

He always saw them as a friend but he knew that someone like them would never find him attractive or appealing in any way.

At first he tried to avoid them as much as possible. He didn't want to see them, maybe that way he would lose feelings.

But considence or not, he would always find them wherever he went

The first few times he would try and ignore them or push them away

But the more he did, the more his feelings grew

And so did the disease.

It was becoming an everyday thing of coughing up petals, untill he could actually feel the roots of the flower dig into his lungs

He wasn't worried about death sense he technically already was.

So the disease wouldn't bring him a fate of death, instead, an eternal suffering.

He can't die, so as long as he's in love, he'll have to live with disease for most of his life, untill he confesses or gets it surgically removed

confession

At first he didn't want to but....what if y/n actually DID like him back? What if they, somehow, managed to look past his cold exterior and actually liked him?

It was a possibility. He thought it wasnt likely, but hey, maybe it happened

And plus, if he confessed and they accepted, he would get rid of the disease AND get to have y/n as his S/O. So it was a win win situation

He usually spends his day offs catching up on sleep or just relaxing, but he ended up using the day to ask y/n to a date

He was a bit awkward asking them sense he isn't used to the whole dating thing. But was still glad when they accepted to go out.

Even if it was his first date with someone and despite all the stress, he actually enjoyed the date. He had fun and loved every second being with them

But the moment was ruined when he felt a petal coming up his throat, which just reminded him of why he even got the courage to ask y/n out

"Hey um, y/n, i need to tell ya something'. It's actually really important...to me"

When y/n asked what it was. He immediately felt his body pent up and But there was no backing away now

"I have feelings for you .....you could say that i....like you....and i know i can be an asshole sometimes but i'm actually glad to have ya around and be friends, but i was wondering if maybe....we could be more than that...?"

He just looked down at his hands, he wasn't confident on them saying yes but, he still had a bit of hope

Ending 1: accepting

"Frankie, i feel the same about you! I would love to be with you!"

his eyes immediatly widen and look up to them in surprise

"Wait, really?!? Are ya serious?! Ya ain't pulliny my leg here?!?"

He wasn't expecting that answer at all.

Yeah it's what he wanted but he actually didn't expect to get it

THEY actually wanted to date HIM??? The asshole zombie man?

Y/n smiled and confirmed their answer "of course i'm serious!"

He was happy and relieved

The disease would be gone, he would be with the person he liked, things couldn't get any better.

Ending 2: rejection

"I'm....sorry frankie but, i don't feel that way about you"

Of course they would say that.

What was he expecting? To have someone like y/n love an asshole and stitched up freak like himself?

His hands just turned into fists and immediatly got up and started walking away

"Wait! Frankie! Lets talk about this! We can still be friends!" They got up and started following him

Frankie ignored them and kept walking.

He still liked them of course, but, he didn't want to see them anymore.

He should have stuck to just being alone. That way he wouldn't have liked them in the first place, all of this was all his fault.

He kept on walking but didn't go the general directions to his apartment.

"Frankie where are you going?! Please! Let's talk!"

"Leave me alone!"

Y/n didn't want their friendship to be ruined, so they kept insisting

He started getting frustrated, he meant nothing of what he was about to say but, he didn't want to keep y/n around anymore

"What don't you understand of leaving me alone?!? I don't want to see you anymore!!! You're just a disturbance to me!! That's all yo-"

His words where soon cut off by him coughing out even more flowers while the roots dug deeper into his lungs. The disease was getting worse.

Y/n just stood there in shock "you.....have hanahaki disease...."

He kept on coughing out all the flowers he held through the date.

They reached their arm out to touch frankie's arm "Frankie i'm sorry! Come on! Let me take you to the hospi-"

He grabbed their hand before they could touch him

"If you want to help me then go! Leave me alone!!"

"But i-"

"Leave!!!!"

They were obviously hurt by his demands but when they saw the look of frustration in his eyes, they started walking away "i hope you get better soon..."

Once they were gone, he made his way to the hospital.

The sooner he got the surgery, the better.

He has to admit, he was sad. He wished he would have handled the situation better. That he would have kept some sort or friendship with y/n, but, were things even going to stay the same? They would have gotten tierd of his attitude sooner or later, so what was the point of even keeping something that was meant to never exist?

He was better off like always, alone, no friends or relationships. It was easier. And less painfull

and kunimi!sister!reader doesnt exist in this one

YALL IM UNKNOWINGLY CREATING A UNIVERSE WAIT A MINUTE I NEED TO FIGURE THIS OUT

request:

- WAIT OMG i need a side story to the oikawa angst,,, set after the practice match,, the reader getting jealous of seijoh's manager because everyone can tell that the team is in love with their manager,,, and reader feels so down especially with how oikawa and iwa seem to be all over seijoh manager-chan -- chi ☆

for the “jealous of oikawa and manager chan” request with y/n (mona) it’s set before they get back together!! — chi ☆

okayokayokay lets start

so as seen in the top this is a side story so this is kinda a filler of what happened during that big gap before they made up

so lets bring a bit of background into this

oikawa’s knee was perfectly fine earlier that day

like the mans was able to do serves and sets and jump no problem

but buckle to the knee and he came crashing down to the ground

ofc nao, our lovely babie manager, was worried as hell so she sent him to the infirmary to get checked out

‘eieiei~~ nao-chan, oikawa-san is fine-’

‘i swear to god oikawa-san if i hear ‘fine’ out of your mouth again i will show this cotton ball in your nose’

dksljfdlks chile what

‘oikawa-san is okay then-’

*cue nao shoving two cotton balls in his nostrils*

and as much as she wanted to stay and make sure he stays resting, the team needed her so she went back to the gym

poor oikawa was now in the empty nurse room and he finally was able to freely cry

it hurt like an actual biatch and he was even amazed he was able to hold the pain in for so long

our mans is so strong like what the heck :’(

and the pain only added when he saw you

oikawa wanted to go back to the gym so he ventured out of the room and into the hallway only to see you and some gray-haired guy

your hair was tucked behind your ear as you filled the bottle so he was able to see the side of your face clearly

god you are so beautiful

and he cant believe he let you go

his shock came out of his mouth as a breathless call for your name made you turn around and notice his presence

but the real pain settled in when you claimed to not know him anymore

was that it?

nearly 15 years of friendship gone?

‘not anymore’

bullshit

oikawa’s eyes shook and his hands trembled as the all-familiar feeling of intense fear appeared

as if that sentence was the last confirmation that you no longer wanted him

you no longer needed him

you were saying your farewells

he didnt even notice you leave with the karasuno player as his feet stayed planted on the floor and refusing to move

his breathing started to get heavy and he tried to take a step but a dull aching pain sent him falling to the ground

a silent cry of pain was the only thing that came out of him not from his knee, 

but from a broken heart

when you found him down that hallway later, he was already dried up with tears

shrivelled and curled up into a ball of loneliness only to intensify the pain at your last goodbye

as you walked away, you clenched your fist at his quiet whimpers, pleads for you not to leave

but you knew you deserved better

you knew your worth and he was not it

DKSLFJDKJSFLDKF BRO I DONT REALLY KNOW EITHER BC HE HIT ME BUT THEN HES OIKAWA YANNO? LIKE IM SO CONFLICTED I HATE IT HERE

yet why did it hurt so much when you saw him and that girl interacting

you were in the gym, tending to the players, when you saw him walk in with an unknown girl by his arm

were his cries all a lie?

an act?

his desperate actions of wanting you back only to turn around and hold another girl?

you watched as the girl glared at him and scolded him while he laughed and ruffled her hair

no

you should look away and not care

maybe he was right

but he was also wrong

it wasnt him just being unfair

it was you too

the entire match, you watched as the entire seijoh team, even kunimi and kindaichi, smother this girl with affection and love

‘aww~~~ y/n-chan is so sweet to makki-san~!’

‘our little wifey~!’

SKLDFJSKDLFJSDMATTSUN PLEASE STOP IT

hell even iwa was practically giving this girl heart eyes!

kageyama noticed your stare and he sighed, knowing you were probably sad and grovelling over her

‘y/n-san, that’s nao. koga naoki. she transferred over to kitaiichi in my second year. shes really nice and i guess she continued being a manager-’

you nodded, watching her

so she was your successor

your failure of finding one made you feel guilty for years but knowing this unnervingly nice and charming girl taking over settled it down

AND MY GOD WAS SHE SWEET

you struggled to hate her as she audibly chided oikawa over his knee

‘youre already hurt yet you continue to play! youre going to get hurt more! do you want to hurt more? bc i can hurt you more by kicking your knee! maybe that would make you sit down and rest then?!’

it was a spunk you saw in yourself from way back in the day

and the way she ran around to give everyone towels to wipe their sweat off and even doing it herself to other players

and she even cheered on karasuno!

DEAR ASAHI SHE WAS JUST PERFECT

there was no way you could hate her

even after the match, you watched as the girl approached takeda and your team

‘hello, i forgot to introduce myself. im koga naoki, first year manager of aoba johsai volleyball team. you played really well today and you guys are so talented and i hope-’

as she continued to talk, your eyes moved from her to the blue-shirted boys who were watching her with such pride and love

as if she was the most beautiful thing in the world

but that didnt matter to you

what really mattered was what he was doing

and with the way oikawa would look at her, watch her with love-filled eyes, there is definitely no hope anymore

the .5 percent of hope you didnt know you clung on finally slipped and you knew he loves her

maybe it should be time he and you moved on

it was all in the past and the past it will remain
