Your Flower Boy — Megumi Fushiguro

That's the prettiest Japanese name I've ever heard; half of his daintiness comes out of that name.

People often get intimidated by Megumi cause his dad genes get the better of him but my oh my, it's just you who knows how soft of a daisy boy he is.

His hair is soft to touch, maybe shampoos twice a week just so he gets to hear you compliment him again. Megumi smells like flowers.

You've rarely heard of boys who care about their nails as much as your boyfriend does. He was kind of embarrassed when you first saw him put a clear base coat on them “What is it... I'm— just bored y/n” even his voice is made out of petals. He frowns and you might've noticed the faint blush when you called that cute—it took all your strength and curse energy to restrain yourself from kissing his blush right then and there.

Eyelashes. That's probably your favourite part of Megumi’s face if someone asks you one. You believe they're slightly longer than yours. And he triggers your cute aggression so damn hard when he blinks in confusion, it makes you scream inside out, makes you just hold him by his cheeks and kiss kiss kiss those long black lashes. Ugh.

His sorcerer uniform does no justice to his pretty curves. Nor does his baggy choice of clothes off work! Until one day when he ends up wearing suspenders on top of skinny formal trousers for the graduation party. You can't even blame Yuji for smacking that curve little ass.

It's so Megumi of him to not go out chasing for his friend, but using his long arms to catch Yuji by the ears and give him a grumpy glare. Sorry pretty.

His smell to his smile, it reminds you of the years back teen Megumi who was too shy to confess his love, like a little sapling of the touch-me-not plant. And, his first ever kiss to your lips felt like the sap of a young sugarcane— indescribable but sweet just like the last time.

A/N: miss megs a lot :( did you like it? likes & reblogs are appreciated!

Bad Polls and the Art of Engagement Bait

So as anyone who follows this blog probably noticed, I posted a poll yesterday. Sorry ace attorney tumblr, it was bait. That was part of a little social experiment to test some theories I had about engagement bait and the tumblr "algorithm"-- and it was a resounding success!! I even made a replicate, that being a similar poll only hours later, which had basically the same result. Somehow. Now that the cat is officially out of the bag, I thought it would be fun to talk about it!

The entire point of this little social experiment was to combine some observations I had about what posts do well, the general attitude of tumblr users, and how to maximize engagement with minimal effort within fandom spaces. Thus, I'm combining all my thoughts into a little guide: how to make the lowest effort, highest engagement post possible:

Recognize that negative engagement on tumblr travels father than positive engagement Tumblr may not have an algorithm, but the system is still set up in a way where negative engagement rewards the poster more than positive engagement. A simple "like" is enough to show agreement or approval, but dissent or shock requires replies or reblogs (the latter of which are significantly more common). More reblogs = more people seeing the post, and thus posts that elicit a negative reaction tend to travel further than positive ones

Capitalize on the fact that people love to bitch about things when given the opportunity Generally speaking, going onto a random post you hate and exclaiming how much you hate it is a bit of a tumblr faux pas. Same thing with venting about how much you dislike something. While bringing up the topic yourself and being snippy to specific people are frowned upon, however, places like polls that provide an opportunity to bitch about things are a great outlet, and a LOT of people will take it

Take advantage of the poll's inherent anonymity This may seem counterintuitive-- the person posting the poll and everyone reblogging it aren't anonymous at all! This doesn't matter though, only the votes do. The anonymity of the votes on a tumblr poll turn the opinions of others, no matter their relative size, into a nebulous opinion of the indeterminate masses. THIS is the most important part of the engagement bait, because tumblr users love to complain but aren't likely to do so to someone directly for fear of hurting their feelings or getting called out for being rude. If you can take a dissenting opinion and remove the actual user from the equation, people are far more likely to share exactly what they think about it-- this is when the "no reading comprehension" and "you people seriously think (X)" and "ugh I hate fandom" takes come out en masse. Tumblr users may be mean, but more importantly we are also cowards. In the case of the poll I posted above, even extremely small minority opinions were being commented on in almost every single reblog, despite the fact that these opinions made up less than 10% of the votes for a majority of the poll's run.

More buzzwords, less nuance Buzzwords and a lack of nuance work together to make engagement more likely-- buzzwords are often both overused and misused, while a lack of nuance (typically in the form of a yes or no question) eggs people into explaining themselves. Combine these two and you add people justifying themselves, arguing with others, and complaining about the buzzword in general into your reblogs, boosting your numbers even more. In my case, I chose the lowest of the low when it comes to poll topics: "Is (recognizable character) (buzzword)?". How people fell for this twice I'm not sure, but it works!

If things are getting boring, stir the pot yourself You can use alt accounts or just make up tags yourself, but I was too lazy to do this. However, there's always the option of cherrypicking-- screenshot outlandish or dissenting tags, even if it's just one in a sea of hundreds, and post that in a reblog with an incredulous caption. Bringing tags to the attention of the majority invites new focus on those tags AND your poll, giving people another outlet to add their takes. Some people will likely even reblog it Again.

Now that the bait is set, watch people in your notes talk over themselves like a flock of seagulls

Congrats! You've now made a successful bait poll. Fortunately or unfortunately, mine worked so well that people fell for it twice, both of them got thousands of votes each within the day, my notifications are overflowing, and popular blogs have made posts referencing it. Point proven, hypothesis verified. As they say: easy website.

But He's Married (3/4)

Pairing: Bucky Barnes

Fandoms: Marvel, MCU

Summary: "Bucky, who did this to you?"

Warnings: Cursing, violence, talk of smut, abuse

1/2/3/4

"Bucky, who did this to you?" You didn't know why you asked. It was obvious. "Was it her? Was it Shannon?"

He was embarrassed as he grabbed his shirt off the floor and held it over his chest. He wouldn't look you in the eye. "She hits me sometimes when I'm not listening to her. She punches really hard. And...?"

"And...?" Your heart was pounding in your ears.

"And...When she guilts me into having sex with her...she...she, uh..." Evidently not being able to find the words, Bucky just turned around to reveal red and violent scratches all up and down and across his back.

You gasped his name as you carefully ran your fingers over a couple of the wounds. Tears pricked your eyes.

He turned back around to face you. "I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have let her done this. But I didn't know how--"

You gently pulled him in to kiss you. Your hands were gently placed on the sides of his neck.

Bucky eased and kissed you back. His arms circled around you again. One of his hands ran through your hair.

You thought you'd be able to let go of what you'd just learned, at least for the moment, but you proved yourself wrong when you parted from Bucky and exhaled through your nose. You could feel rage bubbling within you. "I could kill her."

"Huh?" Bucky clearly didn't expect that.

"For hurting you. I could-I could...Ugh!" You jumped off the washing machine, surprising Bucky.

He took a step back, and stared at you, wide-eyed. "Y/n! I-I'm sorry. Maybe I--"

"No, Buck. Please don't apologize anymore. None of this is your fault. It's all that bit--" You stopped yourself. "--Shannon's." Then, you realized what you needed to do. "You know what--?" You picked up your basket, and headed for the door.

Panic struck Bucky's voice. "Where are you going?!"

"Where do you think?" you returned angrily.

Before you knew it, you were banging on Bucky and Shannon's apartment door. The villain in question answered quickly. You could have sworn you could caught her vein if it popped out her head any farther.

"What the hell are are you doing at my and James' home?!"

You didn't think twice. "He likes to be called Bucky, and I'll tell you what he doesn't like: being abused by some person like you!"

"Abused?" Bucky was alarmed. "Hey, no one said abused!"

Shannon looked beyond offended. She was enraged. She didn't slap you, no, she just punched you right in the face.

"Shannon!" Bucky called out.

You dropped the basket you were holding out of shock, and grabbed your nose. "That's it--" you called out before charging into the apartment and tackling Shannon to the ground. You managed to punch her five times before Bucky pulled you off her.

"He's mine now, bitch!" you called as Bucky pulled you away. "I'll treat him better than you ever dreamed!"

coming in to drop my 2c bcs i love drama

the entire concept of gp is patriarchal lol. strap-ons exist but it obv wasnt enough for gp to have been invented so dick envy must be the reason. the only perspective from which i can understand gp from is trans people w gender dysmorphia or ppl w body dysmorphia but wanting to get pounded w a dick? thats internalised homophobia - and yes i saw the ask where “if a girl woke up with a dick one day would she no longer be a girl?” - girls wont wake up with dicks one day. thats not a realistic scenario, trans people dont just ‘wake up’ and think theyre another gender, theyve known for their whole lives something felt off in their body, which is why again, i can only understand gp from trans and dysmorphic povs. regardless, read/write gp if u want! ik i have personally reblogged gp fics but bcs ij my mind i can substitute the dick for a strap-on so i dont get the ick (esp if the plot is actually really good and i neeeeeded to read it) this is miinatozakiii’s personal blog she can have wtv opinions she wants and if u dont like them then just unfollow or dont engage. sorry if its felt like youve been attacked for reading gp but maybe u took it personal bcs theres alr a part of u thats ashamed for reading it ? that knows theres a few issues w it ?

also!!!!! miinatozakiii is ltr my lover ik her like maybe shes only written ‘porn’ bcs the entire twice community is so lust driven only fics with sex do well. but also! why are we slut shaming lol sex is a natural process no one on this platform is ‘holy’ 😭 and its not something we should strive to be either thats such a traditional backwards way of thinking

HEY BABE!! ugh ily you’re always so wonderful and can word things sm better than me i rmbr our whole convo ab this thank u for being number one support MUAH

no deadass that question “what if a girl wakes up w a dick” like unless this is some magic world that’s not ever going to happen LMAO unrealistic af

RIGJT ppl who feel attacked doing tm like i literally just said i hate it so bad and find a problem w it and other ppl too and like i feel like there’s def a problem with it and ppl know it that’s why they’re so quick to defend themselves when it comes to gp

twice tumblr RUNS on anything sexual even if it’s half assed (some of my fics) just bc the mere mention of smth freaky and also being called “not holy lalala smth thou” was Too funny to me it was giving implied slur shamimg like cmon now u indulge in gp which is always sexual😭😭😭like cmon now this is not the freak olympics LMFAAOOOOO

anwyays royaltozaki fan till i die she always spits facts and much better than i can (idk how to organize thoughts or word things) muah muah

25 Days of Life Day: Day 9 - Decorating Firepuncher as a Joke for Crosshair

Summary: You and Wrecker prank Crosshair. It doesn't amuse him.

A/N: If you've been reading these, I really appreciate it! Your kind words and reblogs mean so much!! <3

Warnings: 18+ MINORS DNI; Suggestive Language

25 Days of Life Day Masterlist

You and Wrecker had been working together on this little Life Day prank on Crosshair all afternoon while Echo and Hunter kept him busy. You both can’t help but giggle as you work on it, trying to be quick. 

You had already taken apart Firepuncher and wrapped all of the gun’s individual parts in pretty sparkly wrapping paper. You’re just finishing wrapping the weapon kit. Wrecker puts a few bows on it and then you sit it on Crosshair’s bunk. 

“He’s gonna be so mad.” Wrecker laughs, patting you on the back. 

“I know. It’s gonna be great.” You giggle and go and lay in your bunk to wait for Crosshair and the guys to get back. 

“Do you think he’ll try to fight us?” Wrecker asks, sitting over on his bunk. 

You shrug. “Knowing Cross… probably.” “Worth it.” You and Wrecker say simultaneously and then burst out laughing. 

After a bit, the guys finally come back. Hunter and Echo enter the barracks first, smirking knowingly. When Crosshair comes in, you and Wrecker try to keep your cool and not laugh. Unfortunately, Wrecker isn’t good at this sort of thing and lets out a stifled giggle. You shoot him a look at the same time that Crosshair does but when Crosshair looks at you, suspiciously, you just grin at him.

“How was your afternoon?” You ask him.

He hasn’t noticed the red sparkly package on his bunk yet, somehow. 

“It was fine. Why?” He narrows his eyes at you.

You shrug. “Am I not allowed to ask you how your day is going?” 

He finally walks toward his bunk, stopping immediately when he takes sight of the sparkly red box waiting for him. He looks around at everyone, clearly confused.

“What’s this?” Crosshair asks you.

“A present.” Wrecker answers.

“A present?” Crosshair is still staring at you, clearly seeing through your facade. 

“For being such a good boy this year.” You wink. 

He rolls his eyes, smirking at you before going over to his bed. He leans down and unwraps the paper, tossing it to the floor.

“Is this Firepuncher?” He turns around, glaring at Wrecker.

Wrecker shrugs and then Crosshair shoots you a look. You can’t help but smile.

“Happy Life Day?” You raise your eyebrows.

“Ugh. Insufferable. Both of you.” Crosshair opens the kit, obviously to check and make sure you didn’t damage his precious rifle.

Unfortunately, when he sees that Firepuncher has been taken apart and wrapped piece by piece, he doesn’t find it as funny as you and Wrecker did. “Are you fucking kidding me?”

You sit up on the edge of the bed. “At least it’s pretty wrapping paper, right?”

“There’s fucking sparkles all over my kit.” He complains and then looks at Hunter as if he’s going to do something.

Hunter raises his hands in surrender. “I have no part in this.”

Crosshair grumbles and unwraps the rest of his rifle parts and then puts his rifle back together.

“I’m getting a lock for my stuff.” Crosshair warns all of you.

You can’t help but laugh, getting up to walk over to him. He puts his hand up to stop you. 

“I’m not happy with you.” He puts a toothpick in between his lips and crosses his arms. 

You roll your eyes. “Cross, it was just a silly prank.” 

“Not the point.” 

“I promise there isn’t one little scratch on the rifle.” You hold your hand up in a promise. 

“There better not be.” He points at you, his look softening.

“I’m sorry.” You give him a big wide eyed remorseful look and wrap your arms around his waist. “What if I promise to make it up to you later?”

He narrows his eyes at you again. “I’m listening.” 

You lean in close to his ear. “I’ll do that thing you really like.” 

“Hm.” He thinks about it for a moment. “If you do it twice, I’ll forgive you.” 

“Deal.” You laugh. 

He smirks down at you before taking his toothpick out to kiss you on the head. 

“Happy Life Day?” You offer.

“Yeah yeah.” He swats at your butt as you walk away and you know you’re for sure forgiven.

Wrecker, though, will have to come up with another way to earn Crosshair’s forgiveness. But knowing Crosshair, he’ll probably make Wrecker take his hyperspace watch for the next week.

Paul hiccupped, covered his mouth, and hit his chest lightly with his fist.

Pete looked up from his phone. “You good?”

“Yeah, I’ll be fi-” Paul hiccupped again. “Excuse me.”

“Hold your breath.”

“No, that doesn’t w-” hiccup “doesn’t work.”

“Just try it.”

“Fine.” Paul breathed in deep and shut his mouth tight. Pete stared at him, waiting for something - or nothing - to happen. Five seconds. Ten seconds. Fifteen -

Hiccup. Paul breathed in quickly, starving for air.

“Come on, you can’t hold your breath for fifteen seconds?”

“The hiccup interrupted me!”

“Try drinking a glass of water upside-down.”

“Ugh.” Hiccup. Paul made his way to the kitchen and filled a glass from the sink. “How am I supposed to hold myself upside-down?”

“Sit on the couch backwards.”

Paul set the glass on the floor and awkwardly put his legs where his head used to be and his face where his feet used to be, then started drinking. Halfway through the glass, he hiccupped again and sprayed water from his nose.

“It’s not working, Pete! It’s not working!”

“Don’t panic, that’s just going to make it worse!”

Paul began hiccupping once a second, and fell forwards off the couch onto the floor. “I can’t -” hiccup “breathe!”

“You’re gonna be fine, just relax!”

Paul’s hiccups increased in speed, now twice a second.

“Oh my god.”

“Wh-” hiccup “-at?”

“You’re going exponential. I’m so sorry…”

The hiccups were now four times a second. Pete ran to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and began chaotically throwing all the contents to the floor. Jars of pickles shattered and leftovers spilled. He yanked out the shelves and tossed them aside. The hiccups were already sixty-four a second. Paul collapsed on the floor of the living room. Pete crammed himself inside the fridge and shut the door behind him.

Paul exploded, from the diaphragm out, leveling the whole block. Aside from Pete, who was now trapped in the refrigerator under a pile of rubble, there were no survivors. Remember, folks, always notice the signs and call emergency services before it’s too late.

oh! drugs! (sorry lol)

hi anon, hope youre having a nice day

🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings

I have a small headcanon that once they get married mickey will say some offhanded insult towards ian that he never would have thought twice about but when he gets in a certain mood that shit will keep him up at night. he'll be nudging Ian awake at two am to be like "You know I don't think you're an idiot right? I mean, you were saying some pretty stupid shit but-" and Ian just listens for a second before rolling over and shutting him up with a hand pawing at his face

❄️ ⇢ what’s your dream theme/plot for a fic, and who would write it best?

ugh, my true crime story, its going to be so good. I have a lot of ideas but the only plot i can think of is a little too dark so im going to need to figure out how to lighten this shit up. if not me, then definitely gillian flynn bc theres some sharp objects inspo there or mayyybe stephen king

thank you for asking!! heres the game for anyone who wants to reblog+play!

[mulderscully]

the tone of that anon was so shitty. you are constantly out here supporting and uplifting gifmakers! you’re like the gifmaker champion! plus the spoon feeding thing has to do with algorithmic complaints — not the fact that people statistically factually don’t reblog content at the same rate they used to, meaning gifmakers are working twice as hard for half the exposure. ugh!!!! sorry you had to deal with that person

thank you, bb. i'm abt to get my period and i'm abt to start a new job next week and i am having another health scare so i'm kinda on edge!!!

it's so sad because i do notice when my sets have made it to a popular bloggees recommended page and it suddenly starts getting engagement. i am anti algorithm too but circulation is the biggest hurdle rn. stuff just doesn't get seen and then it doesn't get engaged with 😭 that's why i try to hard but i'm only one person.

Chapter 21.    Rise and Shine

Steve barely remembered getting to Joyce’s car and he was pretty sure he fell asleep on the way to his house, and getting to bed was a little fuzzy as well. He did remember brushing his teeth because he’d almost missed his mouth with the brush, twice, but other than curling up with Eddie, that was about the only things that stuck.

Waking up the next morning he felt much better, but his stomach seemed to be an empty pit.

“You look like I think I looked when I woke up with fangs,” Eddie said.

“I’m really hungry,” he admitted, glancing at the clock, “and I only have half an hour to rectify that.”

“Ugh,” Eddie said, flopping back onto the bed as Steve scrambled out of it, “you are far too awake for this time in the morning.”

It was only five-thirty, but if they wanted to get to the hospital and execute the last part of the plan before everyone was around, they needed an early start.

“Go back to sleep,” he said as he dashed into the bathroom. “I’ll be back by the time you wake up properly.”

He turned on the shower as he went to clean his teeth. The taste of fresh mint helped him to wake up even more.

“But I want to go with you.”

Turning he found Eddie leaning against the door frame pouting.

“Soon,” he said around his toothbrush.

“It’s not fair,” Eddie complained.

“I know,” Steve said, although it probably sounded like gibberish as he bent over the sink to spit and rinse. “You know this town takes a while to get things into its head.”

“Didn’t take them long to get round to hunting me,” Eddie replied.

“Yeah, well mob mentality works faster than the truth,” Steve said and began pulling off his clothes. “Once the full cover story is finalised, you’ll be able to show your face again and stand on as many tables as you like.”

There was something of a strangled noise behind him as he threw the last of what he had been wearing to bed on the floor. When he turned and looked it dawned on him, he had dropped into jock mode because he hadn’t been thinking. He was now naked in front of his boyfriend, and they hadn’t even had that discussion yet.

“Sorry,” he said as he saw the pink in Eddie’s cheeks.

“Oh, you have nothing to be sorry for, Big Boy,” Eddie said, eyes raking slowly from Steve’s feet to his head.

It was his turn to blush.

“God, I want to lick every inch of you,” Eddie said and then paused. “I said that out loud, didn’t I.”

“You did,” Steve agreed with a nod.

“Right,” Eddie said, face going even redder, “I’ll just … um … yes.”

Eddie pointed over his shoulder and began to turn away, but it looked like it was killing him. All Steve could do was stand there as Eddie left, muttering something about ‘damn jock bodies’ that Steve couldn’t quite hear. Wishing that he had more time to chase after his boyfriend, he climbed into the shower and went through washing as fast as physically possible.

When he made it downstairs, there was a huge omelette waiting for him along with a large mug of tea.

“I was going to say something about filling that hole,” Eddie said, cradling a cup of coffee in both hands, “but I fear that could be misinterpreted, so I’ll go with, eat up, sweetheart.”

“You’re amazing,” he replied, pecking Eddie on the cheek before grabbing a fork and tucking in right at the counter.

“You have now seen the limit of my culinary skills,” Eddie told him, “so don’t expect to be wowed in the future.”

“This is delicious, Eds,” he said, “and if you can make a good omelette, you can make anything. Eggs are tricky.”

“You won’t be saying that when I burn water,” was the quick response.

Steve just gave his boyfriend a smile and kept eating. They really were going to have to have that conversation soon, so he could say the word boyfriend out loud, because he was beginning to get very fond of it.

~*~

Steve had had a healthy respect for Joyce Byers since the moment he found out about the Upside Down and what Joyce had done to save her son. It had only grown over the years, and did even more so as he watched her distract the nurse on duty at the desk as if she was a professional spy. He and El, snuck along the corridor and out of sight of the nurse’s station as quickly as possible. Once they were in the clear they both began walking as if they were exactly where they were supposed to be.

There weren’t a lot of staff in the corridors so early in the morning, but those they did see ignored them. That they made it to Max’s room without El having to use her powers once was a win in Steve’s book.

“Hi,” El said the moment they slipped inside.

Max brightened immediately, clearly having been awake sometime.

“Thank god it’s you,” she said. “I am fed up of faking sleep.”

“Then let’s get this done so we can alert Owens to do his thing,” Steve said, putting his bag down.

“Are you recovered?” Max asked.

“Fit as a fiddle,” he promised, “and Eddie fed me a six-egg omelette and packed me off with sandwiches when Joyce arrived to pick me up, so I’m set that way too.”

“Eddie?” Max asked. “As in lived in the trailer opposite me Eddie?”

“Did we not mention he’s living in my house yesterday?” Steve asked.

“Nope, you missed that piece of information,” Max replied, pursing her lips, and lifting an eyebrow.

“Eddie is staying with Steve until it is safe for him to be seen around town,” El provided helpfully.

“And Wayne moved in yesterday too,” he added. “The press was hounding him at the motel.”

“Babysitting not good enough for you this time?” Max asked with a grin. “Had to go and fully adopt another family, eh?”

“It’s not like I haven’t got the space,” he said, “and can you think of anywhere everyone would be less likely to look for them than Loch Nora?”

“You got me there,” she replied, but the little smirk she was wearing let him know she totally had his number.

“Come on,” he decided, “let’s do this before someone decides to do rounds.”

“I’m all yours,” she replied.

“Good luck,” El said and Steve gave her a smile before taking Max’s hand.

It felt like visiting a familiar place as he closed his eyes and let his instincts rise. There was no soft preamble this time around as he automatically slipped back to where he had had to leave off before. That shimmering power rose, flowing to his command to make right everything he sensed that was wrong. His focus was total as he sought out every remaining piece of damage and, this time, he remained perfectly calm.

There were no surprises. Nothing to make him react with anger. It made the whole process seem that much smoother, even if that meant he was more conscious of the energy he was using. He needn’t have worried, however, because he never reached the tipping point. As his instincts informed him he was finished, the real world faded back in around him. It was almost gentle, at least compared to the previous evening.

For a moment he sat there as his equilibrium settled, before reaching out and carefully pulling the shades from Max’s face. She blinked open her eyes.

“Hi, Max,” he said as he looked into clear blue.

“Hi, Steve,” she replied, smiling widely.

“How are you feeling?” he asked.

“Like new,” was the quick response. “I would hug you, but I don’t want to bash your brains out.”

He laughed as a sense of euphoria settled over him. The moment felt perfect.

“I will call the others,” El said and he turned to give her a nod.

That was when perfection lost its edge as he tasted blood in the back of his throat.

“I am going to figure out how to fix these dame nosebleeds,” he complained as he fished out the tissues he had remembered to put in his pocket this time.

Things moved quickly from there. Apparently, Sam Owens could be incredibly efficient when he needed to be and arrived at the hospital with two doctors and a couple of people in suits within the hour. Steve did not know what the cover story was this time, but he found himself standing behind El in a corner with Owens standing in front of them, while the two doctors examined Max.

“You healed her?” Owens asked.

“Yes,” El replied, “like I said. It felt like the right thing to do.”

“And of course it was,” Owens said, even though he sounded just a little bit stressed, “but how, El? You’ve never done something like this before.”

“No,” she said with a nod, “and I do not know how I did it this time. I just needed to help my best friend.”

Steve almost felt sorry for the vaguely pained look on Owen’s face. Eventually they would have to come clean about him and Will, but not yet. Things with the government were still too amorphous. There were too many players.

“And you, Mr Harrington,” Owens said, and Steve found himself pinned down by the man’s gaze, “why are you here?”

“El wanted someone here in case she got stuck again,” he replied. “I volunteered since I helped pull her out last time.”

Owens rubbed his forehead.

“And you couldn’t have maybe organised this in advance?” Owen’s asked. “You know I would have helped, El.”

“I know,” El replied, giving the man a smile, “but I did not know I was going to do it until I did. Once I had started, I thought it would be best if I finished, which is why we sneaked in this morning. I am sorry to have caused trouble.”

“You did good, kid,” Owens said, reaching out and patting her on the shoulder, “that’s what counts. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”

“Thank you,” El said.

Steve was almost sorry they were lying to the man, but only almost.

hiya shroom!! sorry for not answering asks (my immune system is being kicked in the ass which equals to bad responses to them sjshjdjd), so instead; i’m here to ask /u/ a few questions instead hjdjdjdkkd >:33

what two colors do u like that equals to ur fav color?

cardigans or hoodies (the rlly thick n soft ones)?

fav collage//edit u or someone else has made?

stickers or washi tape?

a song//artist that’s out of the genre u mostly listen to but is smth u rlly like? (ex. is if u listen to pop u like this one song//artist that produces & makes jazz music !!)

if given the chance to fully master one instrument, what would it be n why?

how do u see the people u love? ex. is how i see people thru colors n memories !! like how i see u as walking into my childhood town’s bakery before the sun comes up to buy bread n prepare breakfast w my grandma !! n i also see u aa a pale color of autumny orange !!! (is autumny even a real word HELP)

anndd lastly, what’s one movie you’s absolutely love to watch again for the first time?

i kinda lied bc there’s a bonus question but if u were also choose a craft to fully master as well, what would it be n why?

also dw !! i accidentally unfollow a lot if people random (either tumblr does it or i press the wrong button JDHKD) 😭😭 AND THANKYUU 🫶🫶🫶 i currently am in-love w it n am gatekeeping it for the rest of my life HAGAHSGJSGJS

kithes u n twirls away

hi hi my lovely kazu <33

no kazuzu D: I hope you feel better soon!!

I completely understand, take ur time lol

YAY OKI OKI QUESTIONS

uhhh. like. red + blue equals purple? because purple is my favorite. but as in, like, two colors i also like but not as much as purple, that's teal and blue :)

wait I was so ready to answer this one wait- I wanna make a couple cardigans, and i don't really wear hoodies, i just wear my blue flannel and call it a hoodie because it's easier- so yeah. cardigans!

oo okay I'll reblog this with a picture/video once i get it <33

STICKERS 100%. bro I used to use washi tape but I got so mad at it because it kept on falling off and ugh it was so annoying. it's pretty and I was. 7? 8? so I'm willing to give it another chance. but yeah. stickers <333

ooh I like this question! that's probably The Crane Wives, which are folk. most of my liked songs are jpop, vocaloid, and loud sounds, with some lofi sprinkled in, so it's funny to hear them sometimes. seriously though, they are one of my favorite artists ever. I adore their music, and I've been listening to them for a couple years now. (THEY'RE TOURING RN BUT THE CLOSEST ONE IS 6 HOURS AWAY AND IT'S SOLD OUT UWEHH)

piano. i think it sounds so nice, and i love all of the songs i hear with it. however, ive tried it once or twice, and i couldn't go anywhere near as fast as i needed to. so. probably not in my future.

oh I really really like this question. so. i see my relationships as feelings. im really bad at remembering stuff sometimes, so i kinda agree with the colors. but mostly, it's a feeling. whenever i see something from you, the color i feel is a pale blue or lilac. for my friend twig, they're a bright, but not overbearing, green. my boyfriend is a light orange. and the felling i get when i see something from you, dear kazu, is a sort of flowery one. i feel thick and fluffy flowers, with little bees saying hello to each other, and the sun coming down and soaking into your bones. it's not hot, thankfully, but a pleasant warmth. the same one that you feel after a really nice hug, or while cuddled up next to someone you love. for twig, it's the feeling of loud music. listening to familiar sounds and not needing to worry if it's too loud. also, late night calls with friends. one time i was calling two friends and i couldn't use my mic, so i used a soundboard and typed things to them. those things are what twig reminds me of. my boyfriend feels like fog and coloring. but not traditional fog, a fantastical fog that wraps around you and keeps you safe. a fog full of whimsy that protects you from the outside world, while keeping you entertained. and for the coloring, it's just a colorful and wholesome activity. something you can do and then show someone, or give it to them and make them happy. i find great power in colors, and i love looking into their connotations. this was so so so much fun to answer, thank you for asking this kazu <3

oh oh, this is hard. i would say.. kiki's delivery service. i had so so so much fun with my friend (twig <3), and we ended up getting there an hour early lol. we didn't always pay attention, making fun of the male love interest, but it was so silly and fun. id love to experience that again.

BONUS QUESTION HEHE

probably. fashion designing or woodworking. i think making clothes is just so cool, but not "diy this! diy that!" no. I mean full on mannequins, sewing, fabric, buttons, lace, so much stuff to work with and make into incredible things. but sadly, I don't think id ever have time to learn in a way that would matter to me. and for woodworking, oh it'd be so cool if i could make stuff like that. make a table, a shelf, a stand, a spoon. wouldn't that be cool? you could show people and say, "I made this. I used this wood. here's something I'm really proud of" and it'd be so cool! I don't have a real interest in learning though, just knowing it lol.

HEHEEHHEHE THESE WERE SO MUCH FUN THANK YOU KAZUUUU <3333

HAHA OKAY <33

mwah thank you for the kiss <3

may i be the one that spins you?

HI!!! this is hoonigiris :3 but basically . basically... ugh i could go on and on about frayed edges but more importantly i could go on and on about HOON!!!! as you could guess by the url name hoon is sooo important to me idk... thats like twin but horizontally flipped and put twice through a funhouse mirror . anyway your tags just reaffirmed how much you GET HIM!!!!!!! he is sooo like. i think its partially bc he's the oldest or bc he grew up in sports or that he's the big brother of a younger sister or all three factors Combined but i feel like he never lets himself feel like he should . or rather he feels and he never really knows how to put it into words to make it matter.. yeah. and when he's faced with emotional turmoil its like . he doesn't really know how to handle it bc he has the emotional range of a thumbtack and the only ways he really knows how to handle it isn't exactly sustainable in the long run... yeah . and from what i was gathering in the fic yn was giving #EMPATH so really they were good for him... and then . sigh. I am a ball of yarn I am the single thread will you hold me in the eye of your needle or must i miss (Miss... in every sense of the word) you in everything . many such cases.

anyway im soooo sorry for yapping in your askbox ... please feel free to ignore this JSDFLSFLFD i just needed to put a hand on your shoulder and let you know. You get him. you get him really bad /pos please never stop putting him in emotionally charged and unfortunate situations... please never stop making him pathetic...! and also i'm glad you enjoyed the reblog tags !! it was a pleasure to read and tag accordingly hehe 🫶🫶🫶

-cat! (@/hoonigiris)

LMAOO IT'S OKAY !!! DON'T BE SORRY FOR YAPPING I LOVE IT WHEN PPL YAP IN MY INBOX 💔💔

thank you for saying i get him that's like highest compliment ever... 99% of the time i think i'm asscheeks at characterization but thank you!! sunghoon is just like. he's just always the easiest to put in slightly miserable situations bc it's just the easiest to imagine him in those situations being like ":headinhands: what the FUCK do i do with these feelings. are they even feelings? my stomach feels like it's gonna drop to my ass at any moment now but there's no way this means anything" and then cut to some catalyst moment that makes have a sudden realization and now he's just in fight or flight to make it better . yeah but besides the point

Pro tip: brushing your veggies with olive oil and putting them on the grill does not change the nutritional value, but it adds a nice flavor!

🥭 Voltaliciousblogger Follow

Also works best with Green Bell peppers, Cauliflower, Broccoli, Beets, and of course, corn.

Instructions unclear, sticking a hairbrush to the olive oil bottle with fuse did not work.

“I think I'm coming down with something.”   

“Does my forehead feel warm to you?”   

“I can't be sick right now! I have so much stuff I need to do”   

“Baby, can you pass me the tissues?”   

"Cmon, you know I don’t get sick.“   

"My head feels funny”   

"I just need some sleep, I’ll be fine"   

"Please stop worrying"   

“I’m wallowing in self-pity.”   

"Couldn’t you keep your cold to yourself?“   

"Stay still, you’re making me dizzy.”   

"I’ll rest later! I have really important work stuff to finish.”   

*sniff* “No, I don’t need a tissue.”   

“I don't feel well.”   

“Woah… Why is the room spinning?”   

“Tissues are for sick people!”   

 “This isn't fair! Germs should see me and run the opposite way”   

“You infected me...”   

“I caught your stupid cold!”   

*sniff* “We ran out of tissues.”   

“Don't come too close. You don’t wanna catch this.”   

“I'm really gross right now.”   

“I don’t need you to check my temperature, I'm fine!”   

“I thought the medicine was non-drowsy…”   

“I’m not drinking it! It tastes disgusting!”   

“I don’t think I can walk straight right now.”   

“If you keep kissing me then you’re going to catch this junk.”   

“I think that maybe…possibly… I might be sick.”   

 “Can we please just snuggle on the sofa?”   

“I'm just trying to get all this work done! I have no time to rest.”   

“All I’ve done today is catch your cold!”   

“You don’t need to worry about me sweetie.”   

“I’ve felt worst.”   

“You probably shouldn’t kiss me.”   

“Hey! You’re gonna catch this now.”   

“Do I look okay to you?”   

“I must look a mess…”   

“Can you budge up, I wanna lay with you.”   

“I'm going back to bed.”     

“I can see you staring at me. You’re not discreet y’know?”     

“Naps are only for babies and old people. I'm neither.”     

“I felt funny this morning, but it wasn’t this bad.”     

“I don't care what you talk about, can you just keep talking?”   

“I'm a little out of it today.”     

“We need to buy more tissues.”     

“I do not have a cold!”   

“I'm not pouting…”     

“I'm allowed to be miserable.”     

“Oh, I'm sorry. Is my sickness bothering you?”     

“Are you sure? I don’t want you to get sick.”   

“It’s a cold. I’ll live.”     

“Hey! Don’t tease me whilst I'm sick!”   

“Are you gonna nurse me back to health?”   

“I'm not feeling too hot.”   

“You better not complain when you catch this.”     

“I'm just a little under the weather that’s all.”     

“I don’t need you to nurse me, I'm perfectly fine.”     

“Y’know… I heard cuddles can cure colds quick.”   

“I sneezed twice, is that a crime?”     

“You’re not going to drop this, are you?”     

“You didn’t have to go through all this trouble.”     

“Do you actually think I’ve had time to go out and get a flu-shot?”     

“It's chaos here. I can't just stop working because I have the sniffles.”     

“Don’t get lost in the sea of tissues.”     

“I'm not grumpy.”     

“I mean, sharing is caring afterall.”     

“Can you just shut up for a second?”     

“That medicine tastes gross.”   

"No, don't worry, I'm totally fine. Just a little sniffle, that's all." 

“I just can't stop sneezing!”   

“I don’t get colds.”   

“You don’t need to take care of me, I’ll be fine.”   

“You’re really sweet for wanting to look after me like this.”   

“I totally just got my germs all over you!”   

"Ugh, of all the times to catch a cold, it had to be now." 

“We were meant to go out tonight!”   

“Did you come home just to look after me?”   

"I don't think I can remember what it's like to breathe normally." 

“I think I caught that bug you had.”   

“My boss won't let me take a sick day.”   

“I can take care of myself, thank you very much.”  

"Why are you laughing at my misery?"   

“Are you seriously going to say bless you every single time I sneeze?”  

“I think I’m catching something.”  

“I don’t want you to get sick too.”  

“For the hundredth time, I am not sick!"  

“Being sick is beneath me.” 

"I'm convinced my immune system is plotting against me." 

“I don’t have time nor energy to be sick right now.”  

“Can you please stop pacing; you’re making me dizzy.”  

"Ugh, the last thing I need is a stuffy nose. I have way too much to do." 

“You gonna nurse me back to health then, show me some of that bedside manner?”  

“Jeez, if that's your beside manner, I’d rather take my chances on my own.”  

“Maybe I should get you sick too so we can be miserable together.”  

"Is it getting colder in here, or is it just me?" 

"I've got the whole medicine cabinet on my bedside table. I feel like a walking pharmacy." 

"I'm tired of being tired all the time." 

“You’re hovering…”     

"I'm not dramatic; this cold is genuinely debilitating." 

"Could you please turn down the AC? I'm freezing." 

“Can you look after me?”  

"I just want to stay in bed all day." 

“I don’t need looking after.”  

“Stop trying to feel my forehead.”  

"I should've invested in a tissue company... sniff... I'd be their number one customer."

“Let me feel your forehead.”   

“You feeling alright?”   

“Bless you! Are you sure you're okay? You never sneeze this much.”   

“Baby, I’m saying this in the nicest way possible, you look like shit”   

“We need to get that fever down.”   

“I’ve never seen you this sick.”   

“So much for your perfect immune system.”   

“Jeez, you look half-dead.”   

“Let's get home so we can get you feeling better.”   

“Thats it. You're going to bed.”   

“Aw, you're all sniffly.”   

“Wow. Bless you! That didn't sound too good.”   

“I'm going to take care of you.”   

"You look like death warmed over.“    

"Bless you!… since when do you sneeze more than once?”    

"You’re going to catch your death out here.“   

"Slow down, you’re slurring your words.”   

"Aw, your nose is all red.”   

"You know we own tissues for a reason, right?“   

"What are you doing up? You’re supposed to be in bed.“   

"How did you get manage to get this sick, this fast”   

"Date night can wait; your health is what’s important.“   

"Blow your nose, I can’t understand what you’re trying to say.”   

You can’t drive home in your condition.”   

”There’s no way you’re going to stay home alone like this.”   

“You shouldn’t be embarrassed, everybody gets sick.”   

“I’m not going to take that personally, you’re high on meds.”   

“You shouldn’t be walking around when you’re this sick.”   

“You can barely stand, nevermind go out and do a full day’s work.”   

“If you sneeze one more time, I’m going to start getting worried.”   

“Baby… Are you sick?”    

"Being sick is no fun, but it's a good excuse for extra snuggles." 

“Do you need me to get you anything?”   

“How about we just snuggle and watch some movies.”   

”Bless you… Bless you! Are you okay- bless you again!”   

“It’s not like you to get this sick.”   

"I know you feel terrible, but you're still the strongest person I know." 

“You really ought to be resting.”   

“Can you make it back to the bedroom?”   

“Hmm… I’m keeping my eye on you.”   

“You’ll feel better if you go and lie down.”   

"A little sniffle won't stop us from having a cosy movie night together." 

“Stop sniffling and go blow your nose.”   

“Maybe you should just take it easy.”   

“You’re too stubborn for your own good.”   

“You sound like you could use some more sleep.”   

"Your sneezes are still adorable. Just saying." 

“Aw sweetie, your nose is all runny.”   

“Somebody’s certainly sneezy today.”   

“Hey, hey, we can worry about that once you’re feeling better.”   

“You’re past the contagious phase… right?”   

“Make sure to drink plenty of fluids.”   

“"I promise to disinfect every inch of the apartment.” 

“Was it really worth getting soaked?”   

"I'm not leaving your side until that adorable sniffle is gone." 

“I told you to wear something warm.”   

“Baby, I think this is more than just the sniffles.”   

“There’s no way that you’d make it past lunch in your condition.”  

"I've got a whole movie list ready for us to binge-watch.”  

“We could shower together if that’d make you feel any better.”   

“Goodness, you look like your about to pass out.”   

“Baby you’re delirious.”   

“Do you need me to carry you?”   

“You’ve been sniffling all day.”   

“Those sniffles of yours really turning into something, huh?”   

”There's way you're going out. Not with that cold.”   

“You’re looking a bit pale sweetheart.”  

“Use a tissue for god's sake!”     

“You’re not one to go quiet, what's up?”     

“My poor baby is all sniffly, aren’t you?”     

“Oh honey… You can't be outside like this.”     

“Don’t be offended or anything. But you look horrible.”     

“I think you caught my cold…”     

“It sounds like you’ve caught that bug going round.”     

“You’re in bed early. You feeling alright?”     

“Oh my god. You’re completely burning up!”     

“I think your fever is spiking.”     

“We should get you into bed.”     

"I'll be right here by your side until you're back to your kickass self." 

“Cmon, let's get you into the shower.”     

“You need a tissue?”    

"I'm canceling all our plans for today.”  

“Jeez, blow your nose before you drown in your own mucus.”     

“Don’t worry, I'm gonna take care of you.”     

“How long have you been like this?”     

"Don't worry about the chores or errands. Your only job now is to focus on getting better." 

“If you’re trying to be subtle, I'm sorry but you’re doing an awful job.”     

“I bet I could toast a marshmallow on your forehead.”     

“I think you have the flu, nobody’s ever this sick with a cold.”     

“Come on, let's get you wrapped in warm.”   

“Let’s get you in the shower.”   

“We’re gonna stop at the pharmacy, okay?”     

“You’re home early?”   

“Do you not see how pale you are right now?”     

“Cut the crap. I know you’re sick.”     

“Hush now, otherwise you’re going to lose your voice.”   

“I don’t think that’s exactly hygienic.”     

“You’re kinda cute when you’re all sick and needy like this.”   

“I'm going to give you some tissues and pretend I never saw that.”     

“If you don’t get into bed willingly then I will personally carry you there.”     

“I thought you said that you were feeling better?”     

“You don’t need to be embarrassed; you’re allowed to be sick.”     

“Are the rumours true, is the (name) actually sick?”     

“I’d kiss you right now if you weren’t contagious.”   

“You’re too stubborn for your own good.”   

"Oh, darling, you look positively adorable with that sniffly nose of yours." 

“I told you that you should stay home from work today.”   

“Okay Ms I’m-not-sick, tell me why you sneezed five times in the span of an hour.”   

“Are you done pretending you’re fine?”   

“The only place you’re going is back to bed.”   

"You always push yourself so hard, but it's okay to take a break sometimes." 

“Did you manage to get much sleep? I heard you tossing and turning all night.”   

“You’ve really got the sniffles today, haven’t you?”  

“I’m not leaving you until I know you’re better, and that’s final.”  

"When were you planning to tell me you were sick?"  

"You're the strongest person I know, but even the strongest need some rest." 

"If there's anything you need, don't hesitate to ask. I'm here for you." 

"You're sick. If you overexert yourself, you're gonna get sicker."  

“Great… Now I have your germs all over me.”  

"I'm here to nurse you back to health, so just focus on getting better." 

“I swear to god, if you don’t get back in bed, I will physically drag you there.”  

“Your boss called me to come pick you up.”  

"It's okay, you don't need to worry about getting me sick." 

"Did you seriously hide the thermometer?" 

"I love you with or without the sniffles, but I'll admit, the sniffles do make you even cuter."

Hi Aki!! it was me all along, your animanga secret santa hehehe. So answering the rest of our last conversation will be a lot more easier. As for the recommended shoujos, I highly suggest Kimi ni Todoke, Kaichou wa Maid-sama, Bokura ga Ita, and Lovely Complex! Those are all older shoujos but to me that's like the golden age of shoujos 2000s-2010s, now a days we don't get many new good ones but luckily next year is looking so good!! there's already gonna be 3 manga adaptions of shoujos in Janurary and Feburary (they are The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague, Yamada-kun to Lv999 no Koi wo Suru, and A Galaxy Next Door!) ((im definitely checking them all out)) and Ouran Highschool is such a classic I highly rec finishing that one!

omg ugh, if I had the money for fashion I would 10000% dabble in k-fashion!! I just love how fashionable their outfits are while at the time looking for fancy, clean, fresh! Cardigansssssss yes yes yes, if I also had more of those I'd be drenched in cardigans but I wear a lot of hoodies during the colder months! I agree with all of that about christmas, I just wish it would snow here ;0;;;;; I feel like it always snows towards the end of winter because right now its just super super cold D: my favorite season is definitely Fall, it's just that literal perfect time of the year. You know the warm in the mornings and colder at night, the crunchy leaves, the pumpkin pies, all of that pre-winter stuff I love hehe :>

ayo we couldn't be more in common, I used to be obsessed with BTS too and the first group I listened to in kpop was 2ne1 with their I am the Best song :D but I TOO am now just a girl group listener and tend to dabble in older girl groups and newer ones too :)) aoa I feel like I should dive into their songs more because I just know of their hit title tracks but I'm sure they have a lot of good bsides. Itzy, twice and mamamoo I am all familiar with, they are good in all their respects. I feel like I like twices bsides more though I rarely listen to them. I am a hugeeeeeeee fan of Girls' Generation, they are my number 1. I also love Red Velvet, Aespa, KARA, and New Jeans! Honestly to me most bg these days just sound all the same, there isn't much new in their pot and I just was never too fond of them like I was of ggs :3

This time of us getting to know each other more was so nice! When I got assigned you I think I like gasped in joy because I was shocked I got a mutual! I feel honored being able to make a gift for you, I think I say it a lot in the tags of reblogging your works but I really love your style of coloring! The way of coloring, the textures you add, there are little points you add to them too that you can just tell it was made by you, I love that so much ;3; Thank you for being a content creator and showing us your unique craft, I hope you have many more years of doing the things you love! I hope you love your gift >.< !!

your gift here

ALYSSA! hello hello!! ♡♡♡ before i gush about the gift again (AND YOU!!) let me answer the conversation first hehe. all of those shoujos you mentioned looks really good! i've seen a few gifsets of them before and i have no doubt that it's good as people says c: now that i have motivation to start i will definitely add those to my watchlist! i will come to bother you once i finish them sorry in advance. the artstyle for the new shoujos coming out all looks so pretty, i really look forward to them, especially if you're going to be making gifsets of it too! :>

omg yesss k-fashion beauty is so pretty but also so expensive (for good reasons haha). i also love hoodies during winter!! they are so comfy and warm and i always wear them at home :D omg yes fall is a wonderful season too, it's the perfect balance between warm and cold. although in my area, it gets super cold in the morning and then gets warmer at night, so it's the opposite from you!! i always dress warmly when i go to work and then end up suffocating from the heat later on in the day >_<

OMG NO WAY WE HAVE SO MUCH COMMON? i can’t believe we’re so similar especially regarding kpop 👀 snsd was the first kpop group that i fell in love with i believe, i got hooked with their songs gee and oh!! (both classics) i get so much nostalgia listening to them, they still sound sooo good after all these years :’) did you have an ultimate bias in kpop? also you’re so right about ggs, they just hit differently compared to many boy groups. i also feel like a lot of them has their distinct style of music that sets them apart from everyone else! 

i've said this before but it really has been wonderful talking to you! especially since we haven't had chances to interact much before so this event has been extra special 🥺 you’re such a sweet and kind person and i really loved getting to know you more!! the gift is so so gorgeous and i’m still crying over it now. thank you so much for everything once again alyssa! ♡♡♡ ilysm!!!

tw// homophobia

i am so fucking angry. 

twice today i have seen homophobic shit (completely unrelated too! once was on tik tok and once was on tumblr) that was justified as them “stating an opinion respectfully” and i am so angry. i really tried to scroll past it but i cant stop thinking about it

saying that you “disagree” with homosexuality is bullshit. i don’t care about your reasons, it fucking bullshit to decide that someone else is invalid because you “disagree” with it. what is there to disagree with? how could you possibly disagree with someone being gay, it makes no sense. it makes me even angrier when they say “i respect it, but i disagree with it.” because you don’t fucking respect it. you can say you respect it all you want but just the fact that you think its okay to speak out against it means you dont respect it

and saying you “dont support homosexuality” is equally terrible, ESPECIALLY when you try to use the “respect” bullshit again. you not supporting it is hateful in and of itself. you can “not support” political opinions but still respect them, but sexuality is NOT an opinion. its the way a person is made, you dont get to choose whether or not you support the way someone is

as a member of the lgbt community, it took me a long time to accept that for myself. and you know what? if it WAS a choice (which its clearly not!), i would still choose to be myself, because i am proud of my sexuality and none of your bullshit is going to stop that

and the way people will try to make the people fighting against them the bad guys by saying that theyre “respectfully stating their opinion” is fucking bullshit. it stopped being “respectful” the MOMENT you said that you “respect it, but dont support it.” and using religion to justify that?? thats just fucked up

and the way you try to justify it by saying that its an opinion is bullshit. its not just an opinion, its directly talking to members of the lgbt community and saying you believe that they deserve less because of who they are. 

and my fellow lgbt folks, if someone says that they “love their lgbt friends but dont support the community” theyre not your friend. if they were your friend, they wouldn't direct hatred towards you and your sexuality. always remember that your sexuality is your own, and its not for anyone to disagree with, and if your friends dont support you, you shouldn't be friends with them.

tldr: saying you “dont support” or you “disagree with” the lgbt community is bullshit and if you disagree with that statement feel free to unfollow me. i dont want to interact with people that think that my life is up for debate.
