SOUSHIROU. 01  “i wouldn’t marry myself either” hoshina soushirou

Perhaps he had misheard you.

"What did you say?" he asked, wanting to hear what you said again.

"I'd marry you with paper rings," you said, absolutely certain.

It was definitely not the response he expected when he expressed his worries— his understanding of how you may feel.

"But," he started to say when you cut him off.

"But I would," you said. "Perhaps you think of my love as something so... grand? Something you don't seem to deserve?"

Hoshina stayed silent. While he had never thought it through, that was exactly how he felt. He could have everything in the world and he'd still feel too little for your love.

"I don't know. I'd love to know what you see in me, Soushirou. But I love you. My love is for you and you alone," you said. "I fear that's all there is to it. It's probably not as valuable as you expect... but it's all yours."

Oh, how wrong you were. That was precisely why it was so valuable. It was your love. Love from you. And here you were, telling him it was all for him. He didn't know how to react— he didn't know how to express such a grand happiness that washed over him.

"I'd do anything for you," he said, avoiding eye contact, and you gasped a little, but it surprised him too. He wasn't one to say such a line.

"But you wouldn't have to," you said. "Just tell me you love me every once in a while and I'm yours forever."

He turned to look up at you, eyes wide in slight disbelief almost, but the look on your face washed his worries away. Finally, a chuckle.

"I love you so much, you don't even know."

i was thinking about it and this is most likely inspo this fic by @/kazumist. been on the back of my head since yesterday absolutely gorgeous fic.

Cannot even begin to express how badly i need a relationship where i ask them to bring me some comfy clothes and they bring me their own clothes instead of mine

[teainthesnow]

i shouldn't need to spell it out and yet

friendly reminder that unwanted 'constructive' criticism and useless comments (e.g. i don't like this. i'm confused.) are just rude. and this is true for fics, comics, and anything people are posting online

don't be that person

and if for some reason you decide to say something anyway, be nice about it. It costs nothing to be nice (:

(also note - even nice feedback and comments are hard to get these days. if negativity is all or the majority a person gets, well that's just hell to deal with... and also not a reflection of the author/artist/ect abilities)

cocky bastard vibes - zhongli

ship: zhongli x reader

synopsis: in which reader shares their free thoughts on the liyue statue of seven

notes: standalone snippet part of the bookkeeping!verse

It was a beautiful day in Liyue. The grass was a luscious green and the birds were singing a beautiful song. After a nice stay at the Emerald Maple Inn, you and Mr. Zhongli decided to have a cup of tea next to the Statue of the Seven before heading on your way to Qingce Village. You were to accompany him to pick up supplies for the next funeral rite, and with the way the morning was going, you knew nothing would ruin this peaceful day.

"So how much do you want to bet that Rex Lapis was hot and knew it?”

You ignored the choked sound that came from your side as you gazed up at the picturesque statue. Though your companion would probably consider your question quite out of the blue, you couldn’t say it was the first time you wondered such a thing. Whenever you passed by one of them in Liyue, the thought always plagued your mind for a few hours after. Judging by Mr. Zhongli’s reaction, though, it seemed he did not share your sentiments.

"Ehem… That… certainly is an interesting thought. I can’t say whether or not previous records touched on such a topic."

You hummed, gazing up at the statue. Really? That couldn’t be true. Why wouldn’t anyone talk about a statue looking like that?

“Well there are many reasons why I’d say I’m right. First off, his outfit. He has a hooded cloak on while also being shirtless. There’s absolutely no logical reason to dress like that unless they’re from the deserts of Sumeru, wouldn’t you say? It obviously was a conscious fashion decision. If you pair that with the seductive way he’s sitting, I’d be inclined to assume he’s quite clearly feeling his look.”

Silence came from your side. Hm, Mr. Zhongli still wasn’t convinced? Then you would go on.

“You do see it, right? His posture is relaxed, yet confident. Not to mention the way he’s looking at that cube in his hand with practically bedroom eyes. His knees are apart too. My friend from Sumeru told me that when a man sits like that, he’s displaying his dominance.”

Still silence.

"You can't sit in a seductive pose like that without on some level being aware you look good doing it. I mean look at him! He's shirtless and everything! I've heard even macho fishermen say that they pray to the statue for a good night before coming home to see their wives. You can’t blame them, right?"

A hesitant cough.

"I-I'm sure it was a younger time when those statues were sculpted."

You groaned.

"Maybe, but you’re not even looking! If you did, you’d agree with me that Rex Lapis is clearly exuding such massive 'cocky bastard' vibes!" You countered.

For some reason, the more you spoke, the more flustered he became.

"C'mon, Mr. Zhongli! Why are you so embarrassed? It's not like I'm slandering his good name! I mean, if Rex Lapis didn't want us talking about him like this, maybe he shouldn't have made a statue with abs clean enough to eat off of!"

Okay, maybe at this point, you were piling it on a bit thick. Could anyone blame you? His face was in his hand as if he had a headache, and were his ears tinged the slightest hint of red? It was an interesting sight. Never had you seen him look so completely flustered. Sure you were rather blunt, but you didn't think your words were that provocative. Mr. Zhongli really was practically a 65 year old man.

"I thought you respected the Geo Archon…" He muttered weakly.

You gasped in offense.

"I do! I’d even consider my words the utmost of pious behavior. In Mondstadt, the sisters of the church consider themselves married to Barbatos, the Anemo Archon. So finding the Geo Archon to be a sex god is pretty much the same thing, right?”

“No, it is not.”

Shoutout (🔪) to whatever metaphysical force decided that the guy interrupting my set at the gym to ask for my number happened to do it while I was listening to Never Ever Getting Rid Of Me from the Waitress.

I want to say that he was a nice enough dude, but also, replies that did not dissuade this man:

Three sets left.

No, I'm actually not interested in men.

I don't date, actually.

I'm too busy to even really make friends, to be honest.

I don't like to give my number out to strangers.

I don't have Snapchat... I don't really do socials.

Haha, I don't think anyone in my generation really uses Facebook.

Oh, I only really use my work email.

No shade, you're an attractive dude, but I don't date.

Maybe if we see each other around again.

The answer that finally worked:

Sure, just tell me your email and I will write it down.

(This is, not coincidentally, the only answer that worked on the guy that I ignored when he catcalled before he then sat outside my work for two hours waiting for me to come out and then followed me several blocks to my bus stop.) (They do not take "no" for an answer, only a variation of "yes" that you plan to throw away as soon as they leave.)

Togame Jo x Reader

Word Count: 370 (it's just a baby)

No Cw just fluff (unless you don't like dumplings)

It's another writing exercise I was told is cute enough for the public so...the request for today was singing/humming while cooking with Togame.

The song is stuck in your head. Humming it on repeat surely isn’t helping as you roll out the dough for the dumplings, but the mindlessness of it helps somehow. By the time Togame’s feet fall solidly against the floor, you’ve made half so far. Roll, stuff, fold, roll, stuff, fold. The process has little intricacies, but your hands are practiced enough by now that you’re almost machine-like. Maybe that’s why you barely hear yourself sing the first line of the song softly, almost mumbling it.

“Don't go breakin’ my heart.”

Jo from his perch on the chair in front of the counter, watching you fold perks up. Usually he helps, but you get in such a finicky mood when you cook, and he can tell you just want to do this by yourself without him crowding your station today. Still, he can’t leave the song unfinished, even if you’re so focused on the dumplings you didn’t react to him coming in. 

“I couldn’t if I tried.” His voice rumbles, peeking at you from over his glasses to see if you heard him. The smile you’re trying to hold back breaks across your face. He’s snapped you out of your daze, but it isn’t unwelcomed. 

“Oh honey if I get restless-”

“Baby you’re not that kind.” He finishes, his lopsided grin and green eyes looking at you, at the hands that have slowed just a bit while your focus is drawn to him, if only a little. He shouldn’t distract you, but he’ll take any attention you’re willing to give him, even if it’s shared with dough and meat filling. 

Going back and forth until the song ends, he adds a flourish here and there. A small gesture of him holding a hand to his heart when ‘I got your heart in my sights’ is sung has you giggling, fingers slipping on one of the dumpling folds.

It’s not quite melodious, but the flow between you both has a special harmony that only singing with each other often can create. When the song is finished, coincidentally so are the dumplings. It’s almost as if you’ve sung them to completion and you know they’ll taste all the better for it.

i stole this from twitter shhhh they dont need to know

[epiphainie]

i can't with all these "the show is highlighting tommy's jealousy, they're planting seeds that it will cause problems" takes like bffr. he mentioned being envious over the 118's dynamic twice, sure, but in what world (literally how?) would that cause a relationship problem? do yall expect him to be in cahoots with gerrard behind their back and murder buck to take over his life or something?? like even with the hyperbole aside, i genuinely cannot see how they can turn this into relationship drama without going against everything they showed us with tommy so far
