' YOU'LL WANNA BE SPEAKING TO THOMAS , OVER THERE ' was all that defne had needed before making her way over, with faux confidence. long ago , she had been something of a spirit . she could walk through the air lightly , hands fluttering out to nudge shoulders or wave at others as she passed . WHEREVER SHE WENT , defne had always felt sure of herself . her brain bled the language of peace , which some mocked her for , as it was a language well spoken everywhere else.

HERE AND NOW THOUGH , things are different . in more ways then exist in the dictionary or could be sung in songs. defne still tries to float through the air , light and sun beaming through her , hair swept up in the wind as if she controls it herself . but it's not the same , because she's not the same , because the world isn't the same . people simply don't pray to gods , saints or spirits anymore . there is no need for belief when most are thriving off fear .

" HELLO - thomas ? " she pitches her voice higher than normal , high enough that birds could probably hear her ( if they were still alive ) . she'd been directed here for a clear reason : nobody knew what the hell else to do with her . now , instead of running through life , defne was handled . not always with care , sometimes with malice or control - but handled nonetheless . she was someone to HAND OFF TO OTHERS in hopes that someone else could speak her language . " sorry , i think you got the short end of the straw . and i'm not just saying that because i'm short . " she jokes , putting her voice at ease . SHORT ALRIGHT , all five foot five yet can outrun a man SIX FOOT TWO no worries . defne vaguely recognised that thomas was a man , and while she hadn't been around MEN in a while , she could feel herself already warming up to it . like an instrument only ever so out of tune .

a frown curves glossy lips, expressing the disappointment alex feels when she gets whatever he's going through really must be a serious thing. a really deep deep serious thing. "aw, come on." a sad pout. "what about the point of... banana splits? or chocolate cake? there's no point in even those?" she gently nudges with her elbow, trying in her playful best alex way to get him out of this rut. where was someone who knew the right things to say when she needed them? she's never had a talent for words. just quips and sassy comebacks were more her area of expertise when it came to how to say things. being vulnerable and living outside of her 'hard edge' facade, well... alex found herself helpless.

after a moment of studying his features, she eventually comes to the conclusion maybe that's exactly what she had to be. since, she didn't just want to leave him alone with whatever's bothering him so deeply. "i know what you mean." brunette blurts, wondering if it's a good idea to continue on or not. then figures it's too late for that so she continues on, "well, maybe not really? but in some sense, i think. like how... i try so hard to compete with my older brother who does-no-wrong and yet... i STILL always end up as the failure, the biggest family disappointment. the things my dad says really... hurts a lot.." she admits, to herself first probably for the first time ever AND then the other.

"but i keep trying," she softly stresses, "and so eventually... i too, get to rock bottom and feel like it's not worth it anymore. that i should just accept it, that maybe i am a failure. but a part of me knows i can't think like that, because it's not true. it's not true about you either, it's just those sad thoughts in your head making you feel that way." she has no idea when she got so chatty on just EXPOSING her entire feelings on how being treated by her family feels, but apparently there's something she can trust about him to blurt all that out & risk telling just to hopefully show she can understand where he is coming from even if she's trying to help make it better. "this isn't even about me," she knows when to not be selfish, which is why she's actually trying to help. "but that's why i'm telling you this. because you're not alone in that really horrible feeling." she explains, doe eyes staring at his side profile then comes a hesitant way of asking, "what... exactly happened, anyway?"

michael twists his mouth and smiles —-    but his smiles never quite seem like smiles at all ;  they’re the kind of thing you do with your mouth when you know everyone is watching .    they feel empty ,   and devoid of anything human or genuine ,    like you could peel them off his face and find his real mouth hiding underneath ,   unmoving .    sometimes he thinks that’s the real reason lacey can’t stand him —-   because some part of her can see underneath that smile ,   underneath the veiled pretense everyone’s so eager to fill their bellies with ,    and it makes her uneasy ,   and it makes her curious .   sometimes ,    he thinks she’s the only one who does .     maybe that’s why he’s here —  hounding her ,   thrusting intimacy where there should be none .    “     copious amounts .     ”      he instigates ,    shamelessly ,    hickory eyes unmoving —  set on her like a bird of prey —    he brushes his knuckle underneath the jut of her chin ,  gently tipping it backwards as if trying to read her ,   trying to drill a hole through her skull ,   find out what’s hiding underneath .       “      mmm    [      …     ]       you think your boyfriend’s cheating .     ”

brown hues watches as cigarette returns back upon his those parted lips, head tilting to the side -- eyes lingering for a split second before realization struck that she been staring at him for a little too long. question after question she's beginning to feel as if she were under interrogation -- knot between her brows never really leaving. suspicions takes over her features. "okay.. who the hell are you and what have you done to michael dickhead androshchuk?" wariness takes over, unsure what prompt the sudden interaction. "didn't realize you were losing so much sleep because of me," eyes bats at him in innocent manner, teasing tone slowly follows as she withheld a chuckle. femme steps back as whiffs of smoke leaves his lips, "go ahead and take a guess," shrugs as fingers twiddles -- finding that there's no way he could possibly guess what's wrong.

izuku midoryia’s type in women PLEASEEEE🙏🙏

OFCC!! Sorry for taking so long, in my last post I explained why I've been on an unofficial hiatus but yeah 😭 I got u!!

IZUKU MIDORIYA - type in women

PHYSICAL 🤸‍♀️

bro DOES NYYYAT care, literally at all. I think everyone has their preferences, him too ofc, but he's him guys. The ratio from hips to waist is NOT what bros laying attention to, but ofc I'll still give you my opinion.

SUN KISSED BADDIES you got that like sunburn across your cheeks? he's going crazy. like legitimately. I don't think he would be able to handle his feelings. he'd probably pass out from a blood pressure spike.

He likes them brown haired girls 😔 and brown eyed girls 😭 (song reference) He honestly doesn't care Abt details like that, he'd date anyone, but he def compares his love life to shoujo series and he stays seeing those dark haired baddies.

ass tits thighs personality ✅ he's fs a personality man but let's bffr, every guy has there thing....height, hips, and arms. He likes his girls shorter than him 🙂 (around 5'2? not too short tho cuz then he gets weirded out) He LOVES dem hips. Yk whenever a girl has that natural dip in her hips, it kinda looks like those donut stack toys babies play with? (random comparison I js can't think of anything) HE LOVES THAT SH!!T. He's def secretly crazy for thick hips, like when u got some fat around them. Loves it 100%

okay...so the whole arms thing...he likes girls who have thicker arms...and not rly a muscle kinda thick, more like an auntie thick when you got that little folded skin hanging over the elbow. Bros specific, and bros a lil weird Abt it. He would NEVER admit it out loud, but it's like a creepy fetish for him. He would js never actually be creepy Abt it tho cuz yk, HE HAS COMMON DECENCY. (Unlike some guys 🙄)

When I say he's not picky, I MEAN he is not picky. It's giving very much Yuji Itadori and that one girl that he was like "yeah it would be her" (very mindful, very sweet, very wholesome, very demure) Slim, Thick, Skinny, Midsize, Plus size, All size, Morphing Size (idfk im running out of sizes and you never know with those quirks man)

MENTAL 🧠

if ur a mean ass bitch you can get TFFF OUUUTTT bro does NOT stand for that sh!t 🙅‍♀️ tbh i dont think he'd be picky when it comes to personality but he doesn't stand for someone who has room for hate in their heart, even after everything hes been through. I'm not gonna sit here and be like "oh he's a sweet cinnamon roll 🥺" like bffr, but he won't even look in your direction if you're a "hater"

He generally wants someone sweet, or just nice in general. like ochaco (no I'm not shipping them, she's just really nice and the best charcter to describe his preferred personality to)(did you see her with toga? shes a sapphic queen guys bffr) He wants someone who cares TREMENDOUSLY, like he does. Kindness is what gets his attention, being a good soul and good spirit, someone he can match wave lengths with mentally.

A strong mind and determination. (bkdk reference) (I'm joking) He knows exactly where he wants to be in life, even if his idea of that is a little messy, so he likes whenever someone has the same drive he does, natural will to be good. He wants someone mentally tough and ready to face the world for what they believe, as long as they know in their heart it's what they want/believe. (all might reference)

RANDOM 🎉

He rly likes girls who can draw 😭 He thinks it's the coolest thing ever and it makes it so easy for his partner to get him gifts bc he'd melt if he got a personalized drawing of him and his fav heros 😭

LOVE LANGUAGE - physical touch

he's not huge on pda (he gets rly embarrassed, not in a embarrassed of you way, more of a, im shy and feel like my face is going to explode, kinda way) but he loves sweet little acts of physical touch. Whenever he's stressed or really anxious holding hands melts all his worries away.

LOVE LANGUAGE -quality time

bro fr js wants to be next you. he loves little cheesy dates (amusement park and sharing crepes)(manga reference) but yeah, just cheesy things like that.

Really likes nerdy girls (very big on matching energy if you can't already tell) like js geek out with bro and he'd die for u istg.

Play a damn board game with this kid, Jeezus Chrysler. Whip out monopoly and you'll have his attention till he rots in fictional jail. He actually REALLY sucks at board games but refuses to ever stop playing them. Jenga? He can't even set the blocks up without knocking them over. Uno? He forgot what the word uno was. I mean literally say there stuttering trying to remember what word he's supposed to say.

BUY THIS KID SHOES. He doesn't know why...but it's one of his favorite gifts to receive. He loves trying them on and showing them off to you. He also gets rly geeked out over custom fan shoes. (think like those Hercules sandals from the Hercules movie) He knows it's cringe. He doesn't care. He has display racks for all of them on his wall.

OMG I FINISHED WRITING IT HOLY SH!T I DIDNT THINK I WOULD I js pulled all of these he out MY BEHIND BRO it's midnight I'm dead ASF, I have that convention in 2 days, shizzz wild rn. Pls lemme know what u think!! I've never been a HUUGHERE Deku fan, I kinda js appreciate his character, but I think this is pretty cutesy, how tf do u spell that. Anyways, yeah. This was fun. BYEYYEYEYEHEHEHEHEHEYYTEYRYTRYYR

spooky stuff

howdy yall im back on my bs (biscuit soliloquy) and idk what im doing with my life any more. bold of me to assume that i ever did. in other news:

my latest hyperfixation so to speak is watching daz play through horror games lol i have no idea why its so entertaining but it is. the jumpscares be jumpscaring and i dont have to do any of the work to play so its a win win!

im currently sick to my stomach after watching one lol buuuuuuut i also have a new short story idea hehe!! is more comedic, and honestly seems to me more doable than the falcon & flower.

f&f really deserves better writing lol and ive been thinking how to make it a sensible length without cutting out too much lore that it gets watered down, but at the same time i cant afford the time or braincells to mentally write and im kinda stuck. so idk maybe ill work on chapters that eventually lead somehwere? ill get back to it as soon as my latest batch of braincells hatch 👍

--

til then lol this new idea is still halfbaked but it made me laugh so here yall go: broke uni student moves to be closer to campus. finds super cheap place to rent and its literally the perfect fit. knowing her luck all too well mc goes and checks the place out, bc surely theres something amiss.

nope! everything as far as her untrained eye can tell is normal and accurate to the advertising, its just that someone died there and lots of people werent comfortable with that. and its no problem for her so she takes it.

after a lil housewarming party consisting of her and her parents lol, some thrifted furniture and an unholy amount of rugs and blankets, mc begins to settle in and all that jazz. her marks are going up, shes sleeping better, its all great. until it isnt

weird stuff keep happening around the property and shes like oh. okay? and moves on. (unbothered queen. we stan)

quick detour; idk how well id be able to write considering this may be my first project, but it would be hilarious i think if shit got progressively weirder and more insane and shes like: *sips apple juice* welp. ive got a quiz tomorrow aint got time for this. or eh that kid had it coming or better yet: is that kite just suspended there? oh would you look at that it caught fire in mid air. cool. i honestly dont know which is funnier

boom the house is haunted. something, or rather someone, has been leaving her signs in the bathroom using the soap, moving around the plates and cutlery, ruining perfectly good upholstery (THAT WAS 73% OFF). its a huge invasion of her privacy and shes having none of it. also she doesnt believe in paranormal nonsense. this is more of an inconvenience to her than anything else. she yells at whatever the fuck is in her walls to show themselves before she contacts HOA >:(

with a pop a very pissed off ghost materialises muttering something about no need for escalations and that bitch gwennifer. she makes the ghost clean up the stuff they knocked over and what have u. and then shenanigans ensue i guess lol

--

this whole story started with me coming up with a scene where mc makes like direct eye contact with the ghost and plays ayat al kursi. it was significantly funnier in my head but the mental image stuck.

also just for kicks she throws (half assedly) some zamzam water at the ghost and it goes right through them. guys do you see my vision?

--

"i am here to make your life a living hell.

so not halal mode

one to match the gruesome horrors that lead to my demise...

brotha eugh

...so that my soul can finally be laid t- are you even listening to me??"

authubillah we have seen the evidence

"??????"

memes for the soul. ill get back to this maybe perhaps one day. goodnight its one am lol and i have a long day ahead of me tmrw :')

the post from the tags lol >:]

[mcl38]

and in light of fun stuff i'd love to hear your thoughts on, saw a post a while back that got me thinking and basically reached the conclusion that carlos and lando's personalities complimented each other perfectly, which in a way brought out the best in both of them, while lando and daniel have very clashing personalities (not that they didn't get along eventually, just very different). meanwhile lando and oscar's personalities just like. match.

seen people say lando is to oscar what carlos was to him and in a way, yes (oscar clearly does look up to lando a bit and lando took the brunt of the media stuff in the beginning to make him more comfortable), but i also think there is a pretty big difference there. landoscar just feel very aligned to me idk. would like to hear what your opinions are :) think you always have good takes

so i left this for a couple days bc its literally been slow cooking in my brain like a stew... thinking abt this so much. u bring such a good point abt the difference between complementing and aligning / matching...

i often find it rly fun to look at friendships and relationships thru the lens of sibling dynamics - its my own personal brand of astrology or ig personality typology that im addicted to. and w carlos and lando i think the reason they 'complemented' each other so well was bc they very easily fell into an older-younger sibling dynamic - both r middle children, and idk the exact numbers but carlos should probably be around oli's age (landos older brother, who lando's rly close to, arguably the closest of all his siblings - not only did they used to travel for karting competitions back in the day, but nowadays they share a core friend group and go on holiday together, which is cute). so like, lando as a 19 year old rookie, shy but full of energy, is in the perfect position to be lightly bullied, shown the ropes, taught random shit, be shoved into walls, etc by someone who likes to play within that older brother role

so you have that first of all, which already creates some familiarity for lando (who otherwise is quite slow to thaw out of keeping ppl at arms length), and also the fact that they got along w each other quite easily. i dont think theyre that similar (again, complement, not match, its so brilliant), but theyre both entertained by quite simple things, which is y their humour tended to be so lowest-common-denominator: words that sound funny, hitting each other in the balls, dirty jokes, etc. i think where they DO find similarities is when theyre serious - they both have a very head-down team-first sort of attitude (which i think rly solidified in lando BC of carlos), so their trust in each other in terms of that helped make their more personal friendship rly straightforward and natural

daniel meanwhile... where do i start. i spent two years losing my mind in dms over the glorious trainwreck awkwardness that is dando and their interactions. i still cant QUITE parse it but its so good. u have lando whos used to having quite a reactive/passive friendship with carlos, suddenly putting his feet on the ground and his shackles up bc he stopped liking the directions he was being pushed in w daniel. i think daniel deffo is a big, domineering personality, naturally kind of selfish (youngest sibling AND im pretty sure the only boy) (im not judging him im also the youngest i can reclaim), and to keep it concise i think it kind of gave lando the ick.

lando is a very judgemental person, and his humour is quite specific - he'll laugh at the dumbest things ever, like the word 'blowy' or 'pubes' or jokes abt girls running away from him, AND also rly subtle sarcasm that takes a lot of context clues. but he just cannot operate within the middle ground: the typical snl-style (american type) classic humour. he just doesnt get it. when ppl try to do it with him u get things like 'lando i hope you're sitting down... you're p2' 'i don't know why will said that, i'm literally strapped to my seat' and 'throwback thursday' 'it's funny cos it's friday'. he sucks at metaphors and doesnt have patience to wait for punchlines, so the fact that daniel is kind of like universally 'classically' funny actually worked against him - especially bc daniel was fuelled w the confidence that lando liked him and found him hilarious

so thats actually the other thing - is daniels incapability of actually listening to lando. again, we kind of start from the standard of the carlos relationship, with lando as the reactor, but carlos was always rly attentive towards lando. and then daniel comes in - u have lando like a dog who figured out ur trying to exit the park and has suddenly refused to keep walking along, and daniel holding an endlessly extendable leash, whistling a little tune, completely oblivious that his dog is still like three streets down. lando was throwing him jab after jab after joke after joke for like the entirety of 2021 ('they just dig up jam' forever my favourite), but they would just fly over daniels head, making lando become more and more detached and disinterested in interactions w daniel. waaaay into their partnership as teammates, theres this video of lando telling daniel that theyre serving cookies (?) somewhere, and daniel says 'so you got a brownie?' and i think lando says smth like 'nah a cookie, not a brownie, otherwise i wouldve said brownies', to which daniel is like 'i respect that, you're finally dishing it back'. and i rmbr my reaction was like FINALLY ? WYM FINALLY?? hes BEEN doing this for SO LONG like ALL THE TIME now.

idk, its weird bc opinions r rly split on dando, some ppl in yt comments or reddit or whatever still say they were the funniest duo in f1, but other ppl will always pipe up saying the energy was awkward and it was clear they didnt like each other. neither of those things r true for me - i think they did like each other, especially later on (professionally, i think lando definitely had a lot of anxieties abt having to outperform the big new top dog in the team, which made him a bit colder, but i think he gained a lot of respect for daniel when he saw how much daniel was struggling but how much he was still willing to show up and do the whole job until the end w a smile on his face). i have a suspicion they probably get along way better 1 on 1, bc a lot of daniel's off-putting intensity happens when he tries to play up for the cameras. but i am also partly thankful for that too, bc we had a couple art challenges in 2021-2022 where daniel did all the talking, so lando could focus on having fun with his Little Tasks, and thats literally my fav type of mclaren video, so cheers danny.

so then we get to oscar. i think the main difference with oscar is that, for the first time, lando doesnt have a bigger personality imposing itself on him. if he used to b reactive with carlos and daniel, oscar is way more laid back and passive than him, which means lando is finally for the first time the one setting the pace. especially in the early days, this was obvious - lando would throw out the beginning of a bad joke, expecting to be interrupted or one-upped, but oscar would just sit there quietly creature-staring, waiting for lando to finish his train of thought. it was so awkwardly delightful. so what u get now is that lando isnt playing catch up anymore - which doesnt mean hes making oscar do it now. on the contrary, what ive found is that lando brings his personality to oscar-volume, which sounds like it would be dull but it so isnt. again, he thrives in quiet subtlety, and so does oscar, so u get videos like the finish the lyrics where u have to turn the volume all the way up to even hear what theyre saying, but its so worth it bc its SO fun once u do.

in terms of matching, theyre definitely quite similar in terms of humour. both of them love the awkward pauses and jim halpert looking into the camera and eye rolls and deadpan. it took a while to find their rhythm w two of them playing the same joke-role and not having a straight man (comedy term!!) to bounce off of, but i think they figured it out. theyre different enough in terms of family dynamics (oscar is an eldest brother w many sisters, but also younger than lando) that neither of them would fit a pre-made space, so they can just kinda be on equal level to each other. this is especially true since theyve grown up in the same circles - never raced each other directly, but lando moved up categories rly fast, which means oscar spent his late teens mostly racing ppl lando was racing in karting and early single seaters. (most significantly, max fewtrell, who oscar used to b in the junior renault academy with, and who i think is kind of a good representation of what lando and oscar have in common - lowkey, sarcastic, deadpan, but also not taking himself too seriously)

to come back to what u said abt oscar-lando being inverse lando-carlos: i also see it to some extent, like u said (theres those tiktok edit parallels like lando telling oscar to cut his hair the way carlos said it to him in 2019). i think its mostly something lando himself is conscious of and sort of imposes on himself - he often compares oscar's personal trajectory to his, like when he says oscar will open up and be less quiet once he gets comfortable (which was true), so i think hes deffo aware of the comparison. but i dont think it runs any deeper than that, bc i havent seen lando position himself as the same kind of mentor-guru in-the-know older figure. i just dont think his personality can mould to that

idk sorry for this novel size answer. i have even more thoughts abt oscar and lando that im currently trying to shove into a fic so like. all of this has been floating in my brain for ages now

[tearfest]

ㅤㅤㅤgoeun despises the whole concept of marriage. the fact that her parents, the least happily married couple in the film industry, had been desperate to set her up for one had been comical, the irony being lost on them but not on her. she'd pled her case in an attempt to rebel simply for the sake of rebelling, whining some jargon about the sanctity of true love over synthetic love, but her complaints fell upon deaf ears (as they often did). she doesn't mind that much, not really. she'd accept marriage to be a loveless affair ever since she was a little girl, with the jang's being a poster couple for happy on the outside and utterly miserable on the inside. at least living with the chamberlain's gave her the chance to move out and finally get out from under their thumbs. and it helps that she had always, literally for as long as she could remember, had a crush mr chamberlain — often scribbling mrs chamberlain in her diary. and if marrying his son was what it took to take on the name, then so be it.

ㅤㅤㅤdespite the new, more comfortable setting, she still found herself plagued with sleepless nights — tossing and turning whilst her fiancé slept soundly. she'd wrapped herself in her silky robe before ascending downstairs and into the snugness of the private bar. she'd found it on one of her many wanders around the mansion and had taken a liking to it, comparing it to one of the private bars from the movies. she was lost in thought, thinking about said movies when pedro's voice pulled her back to reality — head sinking down between her shoulders a tad as he pressed a kiss atop of her head. " little dove, " she echoes, her voice soft — barely above a whisper. it was fitting, really. a pretty bird, trapped in a pretty cage. she gives a small, firm shake of her head at his question, pearly whites toying with her lower lip briefly. just because she likes mr chamberlain doesn't mean that he doesn't still intimidate her. " nope. sorry, mr chamberlain. your son's great and all, but he snores real bad. what, does your wife snore too? " she jests, perfectly manicured fingers wrapping and unwrapping around the nearly empty tumbler in her hand. " i, um— i hope you don't mind that i helped myself. you kinda said to, and i quote, make yourself at home, little dove. so i did. can i have another? "

❥ open to: f 21+ !!

❥ muse: pedro chamberlain, 43, mob boss

❥ plot: based on this but your muse fell in love with their fiancé's father, pedro

❥ made with beta but i can switch to legacy, just @ me in a new thread!

the simple fact that pedro's family owned half of new york city was not a secret. however, the fact that he made most of his money with the help of money laundering and other criminal activities... well, that was a little less known to the public. his sons future wife knew about it, and her parents did as well. after all, they had been his most trusted business partners for years. the woman he chose for his son already lived with them, having moved into the giant mansion of the chamberlain-family to at least get to know her fiancé a little before marrying him in a few weeks. for one reason or another, she had agreed to the marriage. whether she really wanted it, though, he doesn't know.

a smirk on his face, he walks down the stairs to the private bar in the west wing of the mansion, licking his lips for a second. "hey, little dove." he greets her with a kiss on the forehead, his hand on the small of her back. "can't sleep either?"

Mystery man - pt 2

"I... cant... breath..." I say coming to a holt in the middle of the gym after running 20 laps.

Collapsing to the floor Barnes chuckles to himself. "It wasn't that hard" he says continuing to chuckle.

"Yeah thats easy enough for you to say you have the super soldier serum running through your veins" I retorted back.

"..."

Silence hums through the air between the both of us.

"Well we are done for the day, you can go and do whatever u have planned to do" he walks away from me leaving me sitting in the middle of this gigantic room all alone. Its actually quite peaceful.

~2 hours later~

As im getting out of the shower i hear something get slid under my door. I walk over to see an envelope with my name on. The letter was sealed shut with a wax stamp, so fancy. I throw on a jumper and joggers and run through the bathroon knocking on tessa's ajoining door.

"COME IN" I hear them shout. Walking in tessa is holding the same letter as i am. Shrugging our shoulders we both open the letters simultaneously, like we are sharing the same brain cell.

"Omg tony stark has invited us to a party tonight!" I exclaim in excitment.

"Thats so fricken cool" tessa shouts.

"I have nothing to wear" i pace back through to my room with tessa right on my heals. "I didnt think to pack any formal clothing, i never thought in my wildest dreams id be invited to one of these"

"Hey dont panic we have time it says it doesnt start till 8 anyways, its 4 now we can quickly pop out and find something and it doesnt matter if we are late to the party we will arrive fashionably late" says tessa.

"Omg tessa you are a star i dont know what i would have done without u, probably have a melt down then decide not to go and just read for the night instead" i say while chuckling.

"Yeah yeah im amazing i know, now lets get going"

~1 hour later~

We arrive back with our outfits for the night

I picked up a beautiful floor length red dress that flows so effortlessly while i walked. With a heart-shaped neckline my neck looked bare so i also picked up a necklace my mother had given to me before she died, a small golden love heart which completed the outfit in every way.

Tessa on the other hand picked out a black suit to match their goth lifestyle.

We took our time doing our make up and making ourselfs look stunning as ever.

9pm rolled around and we are already an hour late. A rush of anxiety coursed through me as we walked towards the door of the party. Taking deep breaths in to calm down. Music playing so loudly. We open the doors and the music perfectly timed it self with us playing the chorus of 'jealous' by nick jonas.

It was like something just out of a movie, just so dramatic. Walking through the doors I could feel eyes burning on us I turned to look at Tessa beside me to see that they had disappeared and saw them talking to 2 other agents. I continue to walk through the party taking in all the planning that must have went into this in such short time.

I walk over to the bar where I see Natasha serving Bruce. And sit down. "You look stunning y/n" Natasha says automatically.

"Thanks Nat, you look stunning as well" I stay with them for a while, Nat handing me a drink over, a vodka and coke. While chatting I felt as if there was a set of eyes on me from behind.

I turn around to see the metal man himself standing with Steve and Sam in a conversation, he's standing facing me eyes piercing straight into mine, I smile at him and he smiles back. Strange interaction with the metal man. I turn back around feeling my heart racing, why is he having this affect on me? no one has ever made me feel like this, not since the accident that ended my mothers life.

I got lost in a trance of thinking of my past but I was brought out of it after hearing a deep toned voice come and approach me, I turn to see a dark haired man. Muscles bulging through his black dress shirt, arm sleeves rolled up exposing his tanned muscular arms. He looks at me with deep chocolate brown eyes.

"Hey" the dark haired man said with a smile

I smile back and say hey back

He introduced himself as Eddie

He is perfect in everyway, too perfect.

"Your Y/N right ?" he asked

"Yeah, how did you know that?"

"I'm a new recruit and I've been placed into your group for practice missions"

"Wait? Edmundo?"

"Yeah"

"great to meet you, I've heard brilliant things from the S.H.I.E.L.D Academy, I hope you can live up to these expectations. If you can excuse me I need to head to the toilet and find my friend, I hope you have a great rest of your night" I say while smiling.

I excuse myself from the bar and head towards the toilets. I look at myself in the mirror, not looking physically flustered but I could feel it internally. I shove the feelings back down to where they belong and pull myself together.

I plastered a big smile across my face and went back out amongst the crowd. I walk across the room and grab Tessa. "WE ARE GOING TO DANCE" I shout over the music. I drag them to the dance floor and we cause chaos. Jumping and singing to the top of our lungs like no one was watching.

That's when we heard the initial sound, glass smashing and everything fell silent. The windows to the function room that overlooked the whole of New York fell into the room an object landing in the middle of the room. A bomb.

"RUN OR GET DOWN" I scream, everyone ran to cover but when the bomb exploded I wasn't far enough, the force from the explosion sent me flying into the wall. My head colliding with the wall first causing me to black out.

hiii saw u were doing a ship match up thingy and wanted to see if u could do me with pjo?! not sure if ur still doing them tho so i apologize if not!

so first of all i’m pretty fem presenting, she/her, im a girl and im bi :) i got medium length wavy brown hair with long curtain bangs (im tryna grow them out..) i also wear glasses! im half mexican, white dad😬 and im literally a no sabo kid (IM TRYING TO LEARN SPANIDJ I SWESR.) im pretty tan as well, im 5’4 if that matters, my friends either call me very calm or like very weird, im also very sarcastic and ppl say my personality is fun and silly. i am an introvert tho but like very loud and outgoing wjen with my friends, like im highly embarrassing when im with my friends in public

i like to read (pjo), im pretty smart #ap/honors classes😇 but like i act rlly dumb sometimes. i play piano (not very good!) love atla, stardew valley, i lovr horror movies, hate roller coasters, love nayure and animalsnand shit and I TALK A LOT. IM SUCH A YAPPER. also rlly like painting and drawing and stuff like that but im not the best at it, i also keep lots of trinkets in my room that just dont have a specific place to go like theyre just everywhere. oki idk what else to put so >_<

take ur time in doing this and thank uuu!!

Your PJO ship: Percy Jackson!

Explanation: starting off with looks, I think that he loves your medium length brown wavy hair. He just likes the way that it looks in the fact that it’s not completely curly not completely straight. It’s just wavy and it kind of reminds some of the oceans waves almost with the way that it goes up and down, and I don’t know. I just think he would love that feature about you.. he really likes your curtain bangs and thinks that they are adorable and they go really well with your glasses. I feel like he’d make a lot of jokes about your glasses and also your curtain bangs like friendly teasing just show how much he likes them. He would also tease you about not knowing Spanish yet even though he knows literally knows himself and he’s such a hypocrite but yeah, I feel like he that’s something he would kind of tease you about, he loves your weird personality, but he also loves the side of you. That can be calm because it very much contrast with his personality and I just feel like you guys would have such opposites attract energy and it would be really, really sweet. he’s also pretty sarcastic, silly funny, etc. so I feel like that’s something that you guys would have in common and I feel like you guys would make such a dynamic duo in battles with all of your comebacks and smart remarks and things like that I just feel like you guys would be hilarious together, and everyone around you would honestly kind of love it. You guys have the best banter. Like the best top-notch.. he relates to The being smart but kind of acting dumb sometimes thing, and even though he wishes that you wouldn’t dumb yourself down sometimes because he knows how incredibly brilliant you are he would understand and he would be a hypocrite if he told you otherwise, so he mostly just nods along and gets it. he’s not the best at art, but I feel like you would still be great at art so he would absolutely support you and constantly stand behind you and ask questions whether you were painting or drawing or whatever he would just be totally invested in it even though he has ADHD and can’t like sit still for long. I still feel like he would find a way to be invested in it and, if you ever wanted to draw something would be offensive please do not make a portrait of anyone you would get punched in the face with that shit man he cannot draw for crap. I love him, but he can’t draw for crap so I feel like he’d always ask you for lessons and stuff anyway you guys are cute. I ship it. 🩷

[rottmntsimp]

hello!! i was wondering if i could get a ROTTMNT character match up (when ur free and got the time!!)??

i go by many many online names, but usually i stick with sandra! i'm southeast asian, 5'2, and gender non conforming. i got black hair that's in a medium-length butterfly haircut and i usually dress up in a soft-grunge style (i don't have a specific style in reality, too indecisive for that rip).

i have audhd, and find it hard to open up to people. when i have an interest, it's usually really intense! marine biology, certain video game franchises, tv shows, music, the arts—i'm super passionate about all of them and find myself infodumping if i dont catch myself. i keep to myself the majority of the time, but when i open up to people that i believe i can trust, i'm usually described as energetic and very active!

dancing, singing, playing music, and drawing are my main go-to hobbies. especially music—i know how to play the piano, violin, cello, bass, and guitar! the last two are self-taught, but i got a few years under my belt :D

i'm an esfp, and i love listening to people talk about their passions and their love for whatever it is. i'm dramatic and love doing things for shits and giggles (for the plot yk), but i'm bad at recognising and understanding other people's feelings at times. i'm horrendous at comforting others and i can not read between the lines for the life of me.

so sorry for typing so much!! i wanted to make sure u had good material to work with 🤲

i hope you have a wonderful day evening or night !!!

—🌷 anon <33

Hey Sandra! As you didn't state a preference for your partner, I'm going to assume that either any is fine!

Also genuine question, should I add my taglist on these?

Don't ask how but I can see myself shipping you with April!

💚 - When it comes to dressing up, let's be honest, April could probably rock anything [much like I bet you do!]

💚 - So please for the love of god, let her borrow your clothes. She may not ask for it much, but if you're cool with it she is burrowing herself into your clothes-

💚 - Height-wise, I'd say 5'2" is pretty average, but compared to April, oh boy-

💚 - Her canonical height is 4'8", but let's give her a few inches out of pity, and make her around 5'0"...yeah no she's still short.

💚 - If it takes time for you to open up to people, don't worry! She'll be there, waiting and by your side the whole time.

💚 - As for special interests, if you happen to like a video game she has, she'll definitely let you borrow it. Hell, you guys can play together, maybe even infodump!

💚 - ^^ She'll probably sit there, head propped up in her hand, smiling at you softly.

💚 - Now, as for music, I'm sorry if this is just me projecting, but music players,,,

💚 - Would probably swoon if you ever wrote her a song, or even played for her.

💚 - Would probably ask you to teach her a few things, even if it's just the basics.

💚 - You're both extroverted so expect more outdoorsy dates! Amusement parks, bowling, arcades, whatever your heart desires, it shall get!

💚 - Now, as a fellow ✨THEATER KID✨ if you're demiromantic, aro-spec, or just more of a friends to lovers kinda person, depending on how long you've known each other, and if she can trust you to keep a secret, she might introduce you to Donnie, and maybe even the other turtles.

💚 - Pass the vibe check, please, because if her brothers friends don't like you, I'm sorry but you're gonna have to go-

💚 - Now, if you do vibe with them, especially Donnie, maybe, just maybe, you might get an invite to become an official member of the DPFL [Dorky Pals For Life] club.

💚 - Being unable to comfort April on a bad day might lead to an awkward gap between you two at times, but if you two can talk it out, you'll be just fine!

💚 - As for reading between the lines, if you're unable to read a room, or understand a joke, or just something someone said, she'd got you covered <3

I hope you liked it! <33

[mikasa-imadebiscults]

Hiii would it be possible to get a jjk matchup? :)

I’m a female, 18, n bisexual with a preference for men.

Looks wise um im 5’3 or 5’4 ??? I wear glasses and I’ve got shoulder length curly hair/ wavy hair. I’m kinda chubby? sometimes I’m pretty insecure about that tbh and other times im like hell yeah this is cute af everyone loves to have something comfy to squish.

Personality wise im an ISTJ! I tend to be sort of quiet and awkward when I first meet people, and I am almost NEVER the first one to try and make conversation with someone I don’t know. Like I’ve been told by friends that when they first met me, they thought I hated them and looked mean. I guess I can still be pretty harsh, but the closer I get to someone, the more comfy I am with being more I make more jokes and open up more and allow myself to be more childish? I guess? Like with someone im not close to I’ll be stiff as a board but with my sister im laughing and being stupid constantly.

I dont like talking about myself, at least not often. I always try to steer the conversation towards the other person cause i feel guilty for talking about myself “too much” so I just avoid doing it completely. I also hate when a conversation feels forced, like I want to be talking more to the other person than they want to talk to me, in which case I just match their energy lol cause I don’t wanna embarrass myself.

My hobbies are reading, listening to music, writing, and editing! I love listening to like beabadoobee n NIKI n TWICE !!

Honestly on the inside im a lot more excited and cheesy than I am on the outside. Like in my head im always gushing about stuff if yk what I mean but on the outside i dont show it because I feel cringe. And mentally i know it isn’t cringe to be affectionate towards people or to be excited about things, but when i try to say “i love you” to people or when i gush over some hot guy, it just feels so wrong.

Anyways my love languages are def words of affirmation (to receive) cause I like the reassurance, but also quality time cause that means I can just sit in silence with someone while we both do our own thing and that’s just the best thing ever.

This was sorta long I kind of went along the same format as the person before me cause I didn’t have an example to go off so thank u to that person too😭 <3

(NO REQUEST IS TOO LONG FOR THIS BLOG. Also I hope you enjoy this, have a lovely day!)

I match you with..

Gojo Satoru

- He’s the first one to talk to you and y’all became friends quickly. He doesn’t mind carrying the conversation, he likes to tell you jokes to make you laugh.

- When you start talking more and start to joke around, he gets so happy.

- He makes sure to reassure you daily to make those insecure thoughts you have about yourself disappear completely (he also reassures you that you aren’t being annoying or talking about yourself “too much”. Then he flicks you on the forehead)

- You two will often times sit or lay down together in silence doing your own thing. Occasionally he will show you something on his phone that he wants you to see (you never know what to expect, it could be a funny meme, a random video, or a cursed image)

- If you are writing a story or something he gets curious about what it’s about so he’ll often take the paper, laptop, or whatever you’re using to write and read it.

excuse me. Oh my god.

see if you had asked me these back in like, late 2020/early 2021 i maybe wouldve done slightly better than im about to do bc the only way i could ever find twst fanart back then was by constantly copy pasting their names into pixiv bc there wasnt much of an english fanbase at the time... virtually none on tumblr... but i havent done it much recently- i did a few days ago [from when u initially sent this LOL] but it's nothing compared to when i did it like, DAILY jklfdsjklfds

at least. at least silver is a freebie LOL

umm. Ok this one both first and last name end in ム but I don’t know what ム is 🤔 I think this is gonna be Kalim or ruggie. The ム is probably either -im or -ie bc they’re the only ones left that have names that have that pattern… going with KALIM bc I have another guess later for ruggie

uhh. god i remember the dashes in some of these names specifically tripping me up when i was learning how ship names worked LOL. Mmmm I think it’s either gonna be rook or vil bc the name is short and snappy and written similar to Ace (I think. Maybe I got fucked on the Ace guess bddbcbfbf) but the last name seems shorter which makes me wanna think it’s rook? The last names both end in the T/-to sound…. ト you are Everywhere…. OH but I think it’s ROOK HUNT bc the next one I said is Jack howl and both of the last names for those two start with ハ so maybe that’s a hhhhhh sound??? Rook bb is that you???

Backwards process of elimination from 7 and 4, I think this one is JACK HOWL

i think this one might be azul or jamil but idr which LOL. i mean it looks too long to be either of them BUT im almost positive that triple line thing was in there when i looked up azujami LOL and i dont see it anywhere else so umm. idk jamil maybe??? unless i recognize that one for a different name and remember wrong sfjdsklfjd. Ok yes I think it’s Jamil bc of my same reasoning for #7

leech. Floyd?

Liiiilia? Going off ア at the end of probably idia matching here. Lilia please do not bamboozle me AGAIN

leech. Jade? I was back and forth for a while but since three characters start with the Ja- sound and there are three names with that same character at the start… I think this is Jade.

Ummm. R-ruggie. Maybe. Going on yet another limb bc it ends in チ and the only other names that end in that are leech, so maybe bucci’s ch sound matches??

A bit of a stretch guess but I’m gonna say riddle? For the same ド reasoning i say in 17; riddle has that -do sound near the end of his name but I feel like there’s an extra sound thing after it. Specifically when trey screams his name in book 1 but I can’t really remember LOL. But the last name also has ト… -to… rosehearts… rosehear-to….

trey or cater. i think trey.

Doing another stretch guess and saying azul, bc he’s the only one with same letter for both his initials and this one has a same character at the start of both. I am hesitant bc az and ash I would think might be different? But I can’t think of anyone else that would have a similar start 🤔 and the length of names looks possible. And by that logic, ト at the end might be the -to sound, which does line up with the to- for like trey’s name. Idk how it’s actually spelled but when I mumble it to myself that’s what it sounds like hdjfjfngng

Ace I think, with the ト in tr- appola to match tr-ey and ashengrot-to… which I mean in English maybe doesn’t match but I think I’m Japanese spelling/pronunciation they are??? Also this one looked familiar from my pixiv days and I couldn’t place it, but I think the A for a-deuce is what I’m remembering LOL

SILVER

Malleus? The ア at the end of maybe draconia matches the -ia for maybe idia and lilia

idia or ortho. I think ortho once again bc of the ト -to sound??

PROCESS OF ELIMINATION YOU WERE THE LAST ONE LEFT. EPEL???

Deuce? Bc names like Jade, Floyd, Diamond, and shroud all have the ド at the end, and spade should have one too I think 🤔 beloved juice spade please don’t fail me now 🙏

cater or trey. i think cater.

idia or ortho. Going with idia bc I decided the other is ortho probably….. ooh and his and lilia’s names mmmmmaybe would end the same? Possibly???

Ok this one and 22 last names both end in ト, that -to sound, and all I have left are Leona vil Epel and sebek, so this one has to be either Schoenheit or Zigvolt… I’m going to completely guess and say this one is SEBEK. bc of the two this name looks less familiar to me and I k ow I used to look up several vil ships on pixiv LOL. also the last name looks shorter. So I think sebek

Ok down to Epel or Leona. I’m going with Leona tho bc it’s Slightly Longer than #16 AND bc silver and Probably Viper both end in the same dash and I think phonetically they sound more like -ar??

Reasoning for 20, I’m saying vil 🤔

LAYS FACE DOWN ON THE GROUND. DO UR WORST WHATS MY GRADE ☠️

[kanekoii]

Hi im the same anon that asked u if ur still open to matchups :DD take ur time working on stuff and dont force urself too much tho

I dont have any preffered pronouns(gender is merely a social concept/j)

Im an ENTP,i'd say im pretty laid-back(?) as in like someone can insult me and id just take it like "lmfao so true bestie anyways",i absolutely love calculus cause its more letters than numbers,im pretty light hearted and crack jokes and puns often,but at some rare times id just turn the switch on myself and act the literal opposite as in being too blunt,too logical,grey morality and stuff(im so sorry i dont know how to describe it) i kinda have the tendency to adjudt my personality so it balances out with whoever im talking to(f/e if im talking to someone who rambles a lot id become more of a quiet person and listen to them whenever they wanted to nerd out on stuff) as much as i put a confident front i get pretty quiet around ppl i trust(which is like 2 people LMAO)

For appearance im pretty normal,i think(?) shoulder length black hair that's slightly disheveled cause my lazy ass refuses to brush it sometimes,pale skin,i really just wear neutral colors or whatever's near me as long as they're clothes lmao

hello and welcome to the dumpster speed dating program!

you've been matched with...

FUGLUR OVID !!! (i love his new outfit sm)

i think he'd be a very good match for you and your personality! he understands you're very multi-faceted when it comes to that and it won't ever bother him. he really hopes that one day you'll become more steady in personality, but he'll never force it. he still loves you for you, but one day he does hope you'll stop adjusting your personality to fit the people around you. of course, there's nothing wrong with that in the first place!

if you don't brush your hair, fulgur always has a brush on hand to do it for you. he actually really enjoys brushing your hair and styling it if you'll let him!

Yes! Yes! I completely get you. You can fight me, but you just won't be getting me out of my joggers on some days! Hoodie is a must especially for those times you just do not feel like washing your hair. Ugh, they must never know. Though both my boys are generally nonjudgmental, well, for ME. Anyone else likely will be judged harshly by at least one of them, but they don't even notice really if I'm being a layabout a bit. They're just happy I'm there. Not to say they don't care, too much lay abouting and they start fretting, but you know what I mean. It's SO fun! I had no idea! It just seemed silly before, but now that I can keep up a bit? The most romantic thing! Makes me dizzy! I can't believe I slept on it for so long! Especially the waltz! Be still my heart! Ehehehehee! Eee! You must! You simply must show me your dress! You have such a particular style! It's to die for. All my clothes really are very 1800's. My Mr. Hatter is also particular and I go out of my way to match him. Oh, Don't worry! Jonathan won't step foot near a club. He could watch the little ones if push comes to shove! His little sister would love to make friends I'm sure and he just loves children. Big kid himself nearly. AH! How kind! How delightful! You're absolutely the mostly lovely person! So sweet of you! We'll just have to have a tea party when you get here and really get to chat!

"I garden if you aren’t remembering correctly,” he answers like she’s mustered up the most baffling thing. “Thyme, heather, and even those stubborn orchids you see there. Why be nervous around someone like that?"

Goodness, she must really be sick. Then again, with Darlene leant against her palm, face ruby-flushed and lids at half-mast, she doesn’t leave much real estate for trifling arguments. Strange, though, Cường supposes, fingering out a bottle twined shut and sparsely filled. She’d been so vibrant and mystically doe-eyed. She came like misty lakes and daydreams in the summer--golden, butterfly bloated and a page out of fairytales, but now, she’s fumbling, and something ugly’s crawling up the sides.

Odd. It hits him like a stray breeze. He uncorks the bottle, walking up toward her. He thinks this is chronic, and over her breaths, there’s the whispers of something warbled and twisted--

Of dying. Or hurting. Or maybe tremendous grief, long smothered to choking and painfully hidden. Oh. You’ve got yourself some history, don’t you? he thinks, eyes meeting hers.

Cường, like a shadow, looms over. His free hand meets her shoulder to guide her to a chair, and the smell of summer-berries yet lingers on his mouth--from her platter, all strawberry-sugar-like. It blends strangely with the oil, pepperminty and strong on his fingers. “I make things flower,” he reminds. “So, how am I going to let you die on me? Don’t insult me. And don’t be dramatic. Look up.”

He fingers her temple. The whorls are slow. She sounds so... “This happens a lot, doesn’t it?”

from:    MEME  TAG    /    status:   always   accepting   !!

            “why?”  alex  blurts,  doe  hues  concentrating  hard  on  his  visage  as  she  stares  up  at  the  boy.  her  voice  and  expression  both  wary  and  confused.  “i  mean,  why  are  you  so  nice  to  me?”  all  she’s  done  the  entire  time  of  seeing  him  around  is  offer  him  the  way  she’s  been  blatantly  ignoring  him  and  he’s  being  kind  to  her...  if  there’s  one  thing  she  actually  listens  to  her  ever  condescending  dad  about  it’s  to  stay  away  from  vampires.  she  has  no  evidence  he  even  is  one  other  than  the  way  his  aura  made  hers  grow  alert  and  nervous  any  time  he  got  close,  especially  in  the  dark  when  ‘animal  attacks’  have  been  circulating  around  the  news  like  crazy  in  this  town.  she  only  felt  that  one  other  time  in  her  life  and  that’s  only  because  it  was  in  training  to  know  what  to  look  for,  she  didn’t  know  she’d  actually  come  upon  it.  she  thought  her  dad  was  over  exaggerating  it.  now  she’s  frighteningly  not  so  sure  even  if  she’s  trying  to  seem  stoic.  “most  people...  just... aren’t.”

        being  a  witch,  something  deep  within  her  ribcage  was  telling  her  instincts  there’s  something  off  about  him.  it’s  alarming  when  she  already  doesn’t  trust  regular  people,  barely  anyone  was  genuinely  a  nice  person.  alex  learned  that  the  hard  way.  hence  why  she’s  out  here  by  herself,  far  away  from  the  school  gym  she  had  left  to  opt  for  sitting  on  the  ground  alone  that  was  getting  the  hem  of  her  angel  costume  dirty.  her  beaded  necklace  she  was  trying  to  fix  broken  in  her  hands  while  everyone  else  stays  inside  mingling  about  their  costumes  and  going  on  with  mindless  partying.  it  was  a  school  event  after  all,  which  is  something  she  wasn’t  much  into  to  begin  with.  but  it  didn’t  mean  it  made  her  feel  less  alone.  she  has  no  friends,  her  only  friend  she  trusted  was  someone  she  had  to  leave  behind  in  new  york.  curiosity  did  begin  to  eat  her  alive.  why  was  he  so  nice  and  if  her  intuition  is  right,  how  could  he  be  nice  if  he’s  what  she  thinks  he  is.  it’s  the  complete  opposite  of  what  she  had  been  taught. 

       all  vampires  are  dark,  manipulative  and  dangerous,  stay  away  if  you  find  one.  her  father’s  words  echo  inside  her  mind  in  that  very  moment  as  the  brunette  continued  to  stare  at  him.  yet...  her  free  hand  extends  out  to  him  and  her  heart  beat  quickened  the  moment  she  decided  to  do  this.  this  was  extremely  dumb  of  her  but  she  didn’t  ever  make  the   smartest  choices,  now  did  she?  brave  but  foolishly  brave  was  embedded  into  who  she  was.  

         “will  you  give  me  a  hand,  then?  since  these  wings  don’t  actually  fly.”  alex  questions  with  a  joke  about  the  feathery  wings  attached  to  her  back  and  a  smile  that’s  trying  to  mask  how  she  waits  in  fear  of  what  will  happen  if  he  takes  her  hand  and  gets  the  confirmation  that’s  supposed  to  happen  when  you  touch  a  vampire.
