Write a weak hero
Okay, first, what is weak? According to Oxford Dictionary, weak is lacking the power to perform physically demanding tasks; lacking physical strength and energy, or liable to break or give way under pressure; easily damaged.
That means, a weak hero is a character who isn't physically strong, mentally strong or even both.
So, how can we create a weak hero but do not make readers hate him/her? You will know after this post!
First, developing an effectively background
Unlike typical heroes who may have been born with incredible powers or had a dramatic origin story, the weak hero should come from a mundane background. They can be an ordinary person with nothing outstanding, a failure, etc. and suddenly have to shoulder the responsibility of "a hero" even though they don't want it.
Focus on their mundaneness and weakness. Describe the awkward situation where they are forced to become heroes. Why were they chosen to be heroes, when there are others who are more talented and powerful? What were the circumstances under which this happened? Make it as clear as possible.
Don't forget to describe their thoughts, feelings, and reactions. In their backstory, highlight times when the weak hero tried to be heroic or take on challenges, only to fall flat on their face. Was there a specific incident that shattered their self-esteem? Do they come from a family or environment that was overly critical? These past embarrassments and disappointments can inform their current self-doubts.
Use flashbacks strategically. Intersperse key backstory moments throughout the narrative to gradually reveal the hero's history and motivations, rather than dumping it all at once. This will help the reader better understand the character's journey and the reasons behind their reluctance to embrace the role of a hero.
Tumblr media
Second, emphasizing their weakness
Focus on their mundane, everyday struggles. Rather than epic battles, the weak hero's conflicts should revolve around things like asking neighbors for help or failing to complete simple tasks.
You can also contrast them with stronger, more capable heroes. Have the weak hero regularly get overshadowed or overlooked by the more impressive feats of other characters.
The weak hero's ineptitude and frustrations can be a great source of comedy. So don't be afraid to poke fun at their failings :).
Tumblr media
Third, slowly build towards small victories
If you want your weak hero to be liked by the readers, never let them be weak all the time. Drop subtle hints in the backstory that suggest the hero has untapped potential or unique talents that could one day be leveraged in unexpected ways, even if they don't realize it themselves.
Focus on the why. What made them become strong, or strive to become stronger? Is it a long-term motivation or a temporary one? Are they doing it for themselves or others? What will they do to overcome their weaknesses? Over time, the weak hero can learn to leverage their "useless" powers in clever ways and gain a little more confidence, even if they never become a heavy hitter.
And, remember to highlight their determination. Despite their shortcomings, the weak hero should possess an underlying stubbornness and refusal to give up. Showcase moments in their past where they persevered even when success seemed impossible.
Tumblr media
Fourth, crafting challenges
When crafting challenges for a weak hero, you need to focus on obstacles that play to their specific limitations and insecurities. Here are some types of challenges a weak hero might face:
Outmatched in combat
The weak hero tries to take on a powerful villain, only to be easily overpowered by the villain's superior strength, speed, or abilities.
They get into a fight they can't win and have to rely on their wits or dumb luck to escape unscathed.
Inability to complete basic tasks
The weak hero struggles with simple everyday activities like opening a jar, fixing a leaky faucet, or assembling furniture.
These mundane challenges become major roadblocks that highlight their incompetence.
Social humiliation
The weak hero tries to interact with others, only to say the wrong thing and embarrass themselves.
They may attempt to flirt, negotiate, or simply make small talk, but end up flustered and socially awkward.
Lack of confidence
The weak hero doubts their abilities and has a hard time believing they can accomplish anything meaningful.
They may shrink away from opportunities to be heroic, worried they'll just mess things up.
Overbearing comparisons to stronger heroes
The weak hero is constantly overshadowed by the exploits of more powerful heroes, making them feel inadequate.
They may try to emulate the other heroes' successes, only to fail miserably.
Underestimation by villains
The villains dismiss the weak hero as harmless and ignore them, allowing the hero to stumble into accidentally foiling the villain's plans.
The villains may even make the mistake of toying with the weak hero, giving the hero a chance to catch them off guard.
The key is to create challenges that force the weak hero to rely on their limited abilities in creative ways. Gradually building their confidence through small wins can be a rewarding character arc.
Tumblr media
Fifth, supportive relationships
The weak hero likely has friends, family members, or mentors who believe in them, even if the hero themselves does not. By including a support system of characters who see the weak hero's hidden potential, the narrative can strike a balance between the hero's self-doubt and the encouragement of those around them. These supporting characters can provide a counterpoint to the hero's negative self-perception, offering validation and pushing them to exceed their own expectations.
The interactions between the weak hero and their cheerleaders can also be a source of character development and emotional growth. As the hero gains confidence and finds ways to leverage their unique talents, the relationships with these supportive figures can evolve, deepening the overall narrative.
Supportive relationships can be of many types, but the most effective are:
A mentor figure who sees the hero's hidden strengths and pushes them to overcome their limitations.
A loyal friend who constantly encourages the hero and refuses to give up on them.
A capable sidekick or partner who can cover for the hero's weaknesses in battle.
A tech-savvy ally who develops gadgets or abilities to enhance the hero's limited powers.
A family member who provides unconditional love and acceptance, even when the hero doubts themselves.
A romantic interest who sees the hero's inner strength and brings out their best self.
A rival or adversary who recognizes the hero's true talents, forcing them to confront their own insecurities.
A renowned hero or role model who inspires the weak hero to strive for greatness, even if they don't believe they can achieve it.
Tumblr media
It is not easy to create a weak hero. Crafting a compelling weak hero requires carefully balancing their flaws and insecurities with moments of growth and determination. You must find ways to make the character relatable and likable, despite their shortcomings, by highlighting their underlying potential and the support system that believes in them.

I Dare You
Pairing: Bestfriend!Rafe x fem!reader
Summary: A game of truth or dare shouldn't be an issue right? Definitely not when it's with you hot best friend. It's all fun and games right?
Warnings: 18+, smut, unprotected sex (wrap it up), p in v, cockwarming, cream pie, slight chocking and slapping, teasing, let me know if I miss any
Wc: 3.2K
Part 2
“Let’s play a game or something?” Rafe suggests next to you. You’ve been hanging out for the past few hours. It’s kinda a tradition at this point. Every week the two of you will hang out at either Tanny Hill or your house. The two of you would spend the time watching movies and binge eating pizza or whatever food you decide.
Tonight was the same thing. You had ordered pizza and wings before Rafe got to your house. Giving him the perfect timed entrance with the food since he ran into the delivery boy. That was at least four hours ago and the food is long gone. The movies you watched are just rolled credits. 
“I think I have Monopoly in the closet. We also have the switch that we can play on.” You rack your brain trying to think of what games that you have. “OOO! We can play just dance.” Rafe groans at the thought of the game. All throughout middle school you were obsessed.
Everyday you would go home from school, do your homework and play for hours. It was a great way of letting out energy while also giving you a workout. Your love for the game was then forced onto Rafe. You made him go home with you one day after school and play. Rafe has always been athletic, even as a child he loved sports. But that game took something out of him.
Every move was always red, never getting the motion correctly. Don’t get him started on the burn he would feel the day after. All the jumping around and the squating tore his muscles til they were strands. He hated that damn game but for some reason he would go back to your house the following day to do it over again. Now even thinking about the game hurts him.
“I would rather get back together with Christine then play that game.” He’s being over dramatic. The game isn’t even that bad. To say he would rather get back with the ex that stole from him, tried to sleep with his dad, and reported him to the cops is crazy. The stare you are giving him tells him you aren’t convinced. “Okay I wouldn’t but seriously I am not playing that death game.” Typical Rafe, drama queen. “Fine then what do you want to play? We can just put on another movie if you’re that bored.”
You took the bait without even thinking too much about it. “Why don’t we play truth or dare?” He suggests. His eyes are staring at the phone in his hands but he keeps an eye on you. Watching the perplexed look you give him. “Truth or dare? What are we twelve?” Teasing him will never get old. He just has a habit of saying the dumbest or weirdest things when he’s comfortable around people. Teasing him is a part of the friendship.
Rafe throws his phone on your bed as he moves around to look at you better. “Weren’t you watching that dumb kids tv show the other day? Gluey or something.” “Bluey.” You correct him. “That doesn’t matter. It’s good for your brain to help relax, you clearly need it.” Your foot nudges his thigh as you poke fun at him. He catches it and yanks you closer to him, your legs resting on his lap now.
You get a little more comfortable, fluffing the pillow behind you as you lay back. “It does matter. You watch something made for toddlers but you can’t play truth or dare. Come on indulge me.” He whines, his hand squeezing your calf. The feeling of his hands on you is not something new. You are one of the only people that he is comfortable enough to physically touch. The only thing is that sometimes the touch lingers, filling you with a fluttering feeling. 
Clearing your throat to distract from your emotions, you answer. “Fine. Truth or dare?”
“Dare.” You giggle as you think of something. “I dare you to try on one of my dresses.” His face drops and your giggles become full laughs. “Fuck you. I’m not doing that shit, think of something else.” His nails graze along your skin, reaching your knee then going down. “Nope, gotta follow the rules.” You know he would never put on a dress in his life. You also know that he has a hard time saying no to you. 
This is more of a test to see how far he would really go. “Too fucking bad. I’m not going to wear one of your dresses.” You pull your legs back to your body. Rafe tries to stop you from leaving but you had already turned away from him. “Baby come back.” There it is. That little moment he gives you butterflies. He’s been calling you that recently.
Baby
Like some freudian slip, a moment where he truly reveals how he feels. You ignore him as you open your closet grabbing a crop top instead. A dress was a long shot but you could pull this off. You walk back over to the bed, shirt in hand as you climb up. “What are you doing?” He’s watching as you crawl over to him. He can’t help but to have to adjust his pants. The action doesn’t go unnoticed.
“If you put the shirt on I’ll be happy. Then we can continue.” Rafe stares at the shirt then you. “Plus guys in crop tops are kinda hot.” You shrug your shoulders, looking down at the fabric and playing with it. Fanning innocence in your words to hide your true intentions. His eyes perk up hearing you say that. “You think guys look hot in that?”
His voice somehow got a little lower. You are itching to squeeze your thighs to sedate the ache you feel. But you won’t let him see that this is affecting you. It’s harder for him to hide and your eyes keep glancing down to get a peak. “Yeah. I like when you can see how tight the shirt is over their muscles.” Your eyes follow along his chest, imagine the shirt clinging to life on his chest. Your fingers are dying to touch him.
“Give me the damn shirt.” Rafe rips his shirt off, taking yours and puts it on. You mindlessly stare at him. You were right, the shirt is clinging to him. His muscles are stretching it out but his biceps are the main show. They are bulging out, the fabric barely holding together. He could choke you with his arms and you would be happy.
“Happy?” Your eyes flicker up to his. “Very.” Rafe shifts back to relax, his arm resting by your folded legs. His fingers extend out to brush against your exposed skin. “Truth or dare?” You think about it and take a long pause. “Truth.” His eyes squint at you, expressing his irritation that you took the easy way out. “Why did you and Evan break up?” 
He knows why you two broke up, it was him. Evan made it known he never liked rafe and your friendship with him. It definitely didn’t help when Rafe and him got into a fight. Rafe may have implied that you would leave him in an instant if he asked you to. That really set him off and escalated from there. The next day you told Rafe that you and Evan had broken up. He was relieved to know he had once again chased off another guy.
“We had a huge fight after the party. He accused me of sleeping with you and wouldn’t stop yelling. In the end he told me I had to choose, you or him. I chose you.” His hand sandwich between your calf and thigh. Tightening as his mind processes what you said. “Why?” “That’s not the game. My turn.” He tries to protest and you won’t let him. You can’t admit that a part of you does want him. Evan was right to be concerned, not that you would cheat but that you have feelings for Rafe.
“Dare.” You wish you had fought harder to not play this game. You suck at coming out with things to say. “Are you always going to say dare?” “Yes.” You huf a bit. “I dare you to take a thirst trap photo and send it to the group chat.” He groans, already picturing the texts he’s about to get. Reluctantly he gets up positioning himself in front of your full length mirror. He takes the picture and sends it to the chat.
Automatically Top and Kelce start blowing up the group chat. He ignores them and walks back over. “Truth or dare.” You don’t even think. “Dare.” He crawls on the bed like you did earlier, forcing you to lay back. His body is hovering above you, hand playing with the hair that frames your face. “I dare you to show me what you got earlier at Victoria Secret.” He saw the package when he got through the door. His curiosity was eating at him. Smirking, you run your hand around his chest, teasing where the shirt ends only to push him off you.
You grab the box that was sitting on your dresser and open it up. Slowly you take off your sleep shorts and shirt. Your fingers wrap around the thin piece of fabric you call underwear. Pulling them down inch by inch teasing him further by throwing them at him. You don’t know where your confidence came from. Before today you would never strip naked in front of Rafe, you just can’t help yourself.
You take out a red lace teddy, the lace only covers part of your sides and your breasts. It was held together by thin straps, leaving your front fully exposed. Rafe’s hand starts to palm himself over his sweatpants, the pain in his dick becoming unbearable. “Fuck you look good.” You giggle and give him a twirl shaking your ass in the process. “Yeah? You like it, pretty boy.”  Your hands are roaming your body, pausing to play with your breast.
Rafe can’t help but stare. “Come here.” You do without question, not wanting to let go of the game you ask him again. “Truth or dare.” Rafe reaches for your sides as soon as you get close. Playing with the lace between his fingers. “Can we both just stick to dare? It’s more fun that way.” Smiling you lean in, closing the gap slightly. “I dare you to take off your pants.” Like a good boy he does.
His boxer does nothing to hide the impressive dick he has. Your mouth water just thinking about it. Without really thinking your hand lands on his thigh, making its way up and retracting as soon as you get close to his dick. “Don’t be shy, baby. You can touch me.” Your eyes look at him through your eyelashes. He could probably cum just from watching you. Bingo
“I dare you to touch yourself.” A gasp leaves your lips at his dare. You know what he means, he wants you to pleasure yourself in front of him. But instead of listening you start to touch your thighs, then arms, and chest. “You know what I meant. Don’t you go start being a brat right now.” Giggling you move his thighs, slotting yourself in between them. Leaning back you expose yourself to him. The open crotch leaves you fully bare to him.
“Fuck.” He grunts as your fingers play with your clit, collecting the wetness by your entrance to help your movements. You almost get lost in the feeling, forgetting about the game, almost. “I dare you to take those boxers off and show me how you take care of yourself.” Rafe’s dick twitches when the cool air of your room hits him. His hand rapidly wrapping around himself and tugging. 
The two of you kinda stay there in a lull. Both of you watch the other as they play with themselves, waiting the other out till they crack. Rafe had envisioned this differently, he thought he would be the one having you begging for him. Now he doesn’t even know if he can go another minute without touching you. Without feeling you stretch out on him. He knows this is only going to torture himself more but he can’t help it. “I dare you to come sit on my lap.”
You may have been confident before but this is going further then you thought. Before you can psych yourself out you do it. Throwing your legs over his, your folds parting as you sit down on him, his dick laying perfectly on your pussy. His hands find your hips as your arms wrap his neck. Holding each other and staring into each other’s eyes. “Like this?” Your voice convey’s innocence, so do your eyes. Melting him even further into your spell. “Just like that baby.” 
His hands start to rock you back and forth, his dick sliding between your folds. The tip brushing against your clit. You let out a moan from the feeling, grinding harder to please him too. Your efforts were rewarded with a chocked moan leaving his perfect lips. Wanting to test how far he’s willing to go, your head leans forward. He's moving in trying to taste your lips, only stopping when he sees that you did. “I dare you to kiss me.” The words whispered on his lips.
Rafe brings a hand up to the back of your neck, dragging you in for a kiss. His lips devour yours as if you were his last meal. With the way that your soaking cunt is drenching him, it might actually be. He feels like he’s in heaven right now, he never wants this feeling to stop. But he knows it could be better. “I dare you to put it in.” Your hips stop, lips following along. There’s saliva connecting your lips as you detach yourself. You look apprehensive, not really sure if you want to ruin the friendship. “Do you really think that’s a good idea?”
Your fingers graze his scalp, missing when he had hair. The feeling of it weaving through your fingers can be felt lightly. “I miss your hair.” Rafe grins at you, pecking your lips. “I’ll grow it out again if you sit on my dick.” You clench around nothing, itching to feel him inside you. “Plus we’re best friends. We should be able to do everything together.” He brushes a piece of hair behind your ear, his hand resting on your check, thumb grazing your bottom lip. Blue eyes following the movement, flickering up to catch yours.
In your mind you know he’s trying to manipulate you with the best friend card. The truth is you don’t care, you would have pulled the same trick. Rafe isn’t the only one desperate to have him in me. “Okay. Promise this won’t change anything.” you lift your pinky up to him, he latches his to yours. “Promise, Just
just sit on it. That’s all you have to do.” He needs you now, he’ll say or do anything to get it. You lift yourself a little, getting a hold of him to line him up to your entrance.
Slowly you tease your hole with his tip. Slightly putting it in and then going up to then swirl his head around. Rafe is getting frustrated, groans of displeasure leaving his mouth. “Please.” He whines out, hands death gripping your hips. You lightly tap his cheek so he can open his eyes. With a smile you sink down, moaning at the feeling of his big dick stretching you. When you bottom out you lean your forehead on his. Hips flushed to one another.
Your eyes are locked in, watching as you both stew in the pleasure of feeling each other. Your walls are fluttering around him so nicely. He doesn’t know how much of this he could handle. Honestly he’s glad he suggested you cockwarm him. If he was fucking you right now he would have already finished. You are so tight and warm he wouldn’t have lasted a minute. Plus it gives you a chance to get used to him, he doesn’t plan on being gentle next him. His hands explore your back, nails raking down and slapping your ass. You let out a loud moan, your walls contract making him let one out as well. 
The minutes pass by as you two explore each other. Sharing kisses on lips or exposed skin, hands touching every inch they can reach. You can feel him throbbing inside you, pulsating every few seconds. Pulling away, your hands lay flat on his chest to keep him still. “I dare you to touch me.” Tilting your head you mock him. “Let’s see if you can make me cum.” A hand flies to your clit rubbing calculated circles, the other gripping your neck. “Dangerous game you’re playing there, baby.”
Rafe’s back to attacking your lips, moving his assault to your jaw nipping at the skin. His fingers move faster on your clit, hurdling you closer to your orgasim. “Tighter.” You plead, your own hand laying over his to get what you want. He tightens his hold, chuckling at your open mouth expression. “Fucking dirty girl. Here I thought you were my little angel, turns out you're a little devil.” Words don't seem to be forming in your brain.
Everything is blank, the only thing in your head is forcing you to focus on how good his fingers feel. How every twitch of his dick brushes your g-spot only adding to your pleasure. He can feel how close you are, your walls are strangling him. Ironic since it's the same thing he’s doing to you. The fuzziness of your mind snaps the band in your stomach, all the stimulation too much for you to handle. “Rafe please.” Your moans mix with his, they echo in your room bouncing off the walls. 
Rafe continues his motions to help you ride out your orgasim. His hands give up once you relax again. He’s on the verge of cumming, mustering up all his strength he holds back. You sense his hands on your hips ready to pull you up. You slap his hands away, cementing yourself to his lap. He gives you a panic look, knowing he won’t be able to hold off for long. “I dare you to cum in me. We should be able to do everything together right?” The moan he let out was pornographic at best. His body is shaking from how intense his orgasim is.
You moan as you watch him enjoying the view of his face and the feeling of him filling you up. He pulls you to his chest, keeping you close as he comes down. This is better than any drug he has ever taken. Slowly and carefully he moves you around, laying you on your back and pulling out. He stares at his dripping cum slides out of you. “God baby you’re amazing.” He kisses your stomach, chest, chin, then lips.
He holds you there, lips molding with yours. He gets up after a minute, getting a wet rag to clean you up. You lay in bed motionless when Rafe comes back after disposing of the dirty rag. “That was fucking amazing.” You say to your ceiling. Laughing, he lays down next to you. You look at him with a smile. “If you think that was good just wait till I actually fuck you.”

Hi!!! I was just wondering if you could do general dating hc with Andre or Robbie from Victorious! It's alright if you can't have a good rest of your day/night!:)<3
We look good together (Andre Harris x GN!Reader)
Tumblr media
Summary: The students of Hollywood Arts talk about what it's like seeing you two together. Pronouns: You/Yours, They/Them Warnings: None Word Count: 2.3k A/N: I don't write head cannons! Sorry I'm just bad at them! I had an idea of how I was writing this in the beginning and then it turned into something completely different, lmao. Here's the friend group talking about how healthy the couple is lol! <33
André Harris was the guy everybody liked. He was handsome, he was kind, smart, musically talented, supportive, and one of the most laid back people at Hollywood Arts.
No one was surprised when André started dating you, it was going to happen at some point. They were mainly surprised with how the dynamics of your relationship worked.
The relationship everyone was used to, wasn’t the best example for relationships. Jade and Beck broke up multiple times and the entire school was still questioning how and why they were still together.
Regardless, everyone was rooting for you guys since your relationship seemed to be the opposite of theirs. In other words, you’re a couple that people actually enjoy inviting places.
The main group: Tori, Beck, Jade, Cat, and Robbie, (and Rex), all sat at their typical lunch table, waiting for you and Andr Ă©.
Jade groaned, placing her hand in front of her eyes, “Why are we waiting?” She asked, face in it’s typical neutral fashion but, it was clear she disliked having to wait in order to get lunch. 
Tori scrunched her nose at Jades current discomfort, “We’re waiting for AndrĂ© and-” 
“Yeah, yeah, his obsession. What do they have to do with anything?”
Beck looked over to Jade and put his arm around her shoulder, “They’ve been dating for months.”
“Yeah, get over yourself.” Tori told her, moving her bag to grab her phone. She began typing out a message to AndrĂ©, asking when he would get there since Jade was already antsy.
Cat ran her hand through her vibrant red curls, adjusting her top. “I think it’s sweet, they look cute together.”
Jade tapped her fingers on the table, “You think everything is cute.”
The redhead simply laughed, showing her dimples as she shook her head, “You don’t think anything’s cute!” 
A voice from the end of the table spoke up, “You’re just mad that everyone likes their relationship more than yours!” 
The comment caused everyone to turn to that person and Robbie was looking down at
Rex. 
Jade smiled with closed eyes, “Shut your puppet up or I cut off all his little limbs and run his plastic head over.” She spoke, eyes widening slowly before narrowing into a nasty glare.
Robbie rubbed the back of his neck with his free hand, “He’s not really wrong, it seems like you don’t like them coming together because they get invited to more things than you.” He mumbled, cowering under the dark haired girl's gaze.
“Why would I care that they get invited to places? I barely like anyone here.” She grumbled, leaning into Beck with a roll of her eyes. “Besides, I unfortunately hang out with the same seven people everyday.”
As she said that, a voice spoke from behind them, “They get invited because they bring the energy up instead of dragging it to the dark parts of our memories that we don’t want to touch.” The voice caused everyone but Jade to jump. 
When they all turned, they were met with the oddest friend they’ve ever made at the school, Sinjin Van Cleef. They had no idea whether that was against their will and he was just around a lot, or if they knew him by choice. They never questioned it. 
Beck shook his head at the typical antics of the boy, “What do you mean?” He asked.
Sinjin lit up and moved his way in between Beck and Tori, “I am so glad you asked.” He spoke, already beginning his story, “Just last week
”
It was tech week, preparing for the next show was a usual occurrence at Hollywood Arts. What wasn’t a normal occurrence was Sinjin being the only person to work everything for a few hours since his crewmates had a project during that period. He was the only person with a free period and had to work on the tech since it was currently a disaster.
As he was trying his hardest not to get frustrated and ultimately give up, you and André walked in, smiles on your faces as you talked about anything and everything. André left his phone during practice before the bell, so you guys decided to get it during your free period instead of interrupting class.
You had continued talking to André, looking around at the lights on stage until you looked up and noticed the curly haired boy tapping on his board for some portion of the tech. You tapped on André, bringing his attention to the seemingly irritated boy.
“Hey Sinjin!” He called, grabbing the boy's attention. Sinjin took off his headphones and gave a half wave to the two, “Hey guys.” 
You waved back but, both of you could tell something was wrong. 
AndrĂ© walked a little closer, Sinjin leaning over the rail to keep eye contact. “What’s up man?” AndrĂ© asked, concern lacing his voice since he could see Sinjin's face was blotched with red, as if he was about to cry.
Sinjin sighed, rubbing his eyes and explained the situation. “The rest of the tech crew can’t come in for this period because of some project.” He began, you and your boyfriend nodding along as he spoke. “We have checks tomorrow, so I have to get all this done before the period ends or we’ll have to delay the show.” 
You hummed, “What all are you guys getting checked?”
“Mics, lighting, and the electric steps.” Sinjin answered, reminding them of the scene where the two characters run up the moving stairs, singing with each other. “Without the crew it just takes longer to hear the feedback from mics, to test the steps and see if they really work, and if the lighting hits right.”
You and André looked at each other, almost having a silent conversation before shrugging and turning back to your friend.
André put his phone back on the chair and took your hand, leading you to the stage. 
Sinjin stood to look at you guys better, “Um, what are you guys doing?”
You shook out your nerves a bit and tilted your head, “What does it look like we’re doing?”
“We’re going to help you set up for checks tomorrow.” Your boyfriend answered, walking to the table on stage with the mics. He handed you one of the mics, strapping his own on, “Do all the mics need testing?” He asked, adjusting his hair so the mic would sit comfortably. 
Sinjin sighed with a smile, relief filling him when you guys said you would help and he shook his head. “Just mics 4, 7, 19, and 23.” He informed, to which the two of you nodded. 
You put your mic on, AndrĂ© making sure it was on right. “So, two runs with the mics, alone. Then we could do
” You trailed off, AndrĂ© finishing your aloud thoughts, “A couple runs with mics and lighting, then a few with the stairs.”
And that’s exactly what the two of you did. The two of you knew the choreography since you were in the performance.
You both helped Sinjin with everything he needed and even a bit more with your personal sights, even going as far to hear from outside the door just to check the feedback. All three of you spent the free period finishing up what Sinjin needed.
Once he reached the floor where you guys were packing up, he adjusted his glasses and thanked both of you profusely.
You waved your hand, “Don’t worry about it, anything to help!”
AndrĂ© shook his head, “You’re our friend Sinjin, if you’re ever in that situation again just text us.”
“He’s serious, and so am I. We’ll always be free.”
 Sinjin finished the memory with a sweet smile on his face, “I have never been helped like that.” He told the group, hands clasped together. 
“That’s because you’re a borderline stalker.” Jade replied, head bobbling as a thin smile painted her face at how Sinjin's expression fell.
Beck sighed, huffing out a breath, “Stop it.” He mumbled to her and she rolled her eyes and shook her head, placing her chin into her palm.
Tori hummed a bit, “I think they’re just helpful people on their own.” She shrugged, playing with the holes in the table. “As a couple they just have a different type of
energy.” She tried to explain, which everyone understood.
Cat nodded and smiled widely, “That’s why I think they’re so cute together! I mean have you seen them when they’re near each other?” She asked, remembering each time she’s seen the two of you together.
You were practicing choreography for a project you had with two other students, in one of the empty practice rooms. AndrĂ© was helping with the original music aspect, and he was the only other one there since Cat and the other person in their project hadn’t arrived yet.
When Cat finally did get there, you were near the end of the choreo, and she felt terrible. She entered the room quietly, trying not to interrupt.
When you did finish the choreography, André stopped playing and turned to you with a bright grin, his eyes shining as he looked at you. You walked over to him with a matching grin and stood in between his legs, hands on his shoulders.
“That was absolutely amazing choreography.” He whispered to you, rubbing your sides.
You were breathing a bit heavy but chuckled nonetheless, “Your fantastic original song is why it feels so put together.” You whispered back, your comment causing him to laugh a bit.
The two of you stayed in that position, whispering sweet nothings to one another as you both felt the warmth from each other's hands.
André pulled you in a little closer, lifting his head up to meet your gaze in that position and you lifted one of your hands to cup his face. You leaned down and placed a small kiss to his lips, humming against them when you pulled apart.
Cat couldn’t hear it well but she was sure she heard the two of you whisper,
“I love you.”
“I love you more.”
“Impossible.”
Tori poked her bottom lip out as her eyes were wide in adoration, “That is so sweet.”
Cat pointed to her before clapping a bit, “I know! It was so cute!” She responded, smiling and shimmying her shoulders.
Robbie didn’t quite understand, and he tilted his head, “I don’t get it.” 
“Of course you don’t get it, you have no romance in your life
ever.” A ‘voice’ called from below him, belonging to Rex.
Robbie shook his head and ignored the puppet, “I mean I don’t get it, they’re supposed to like each other. So what if they do it in private?” He asked, his point getting across to all of them.
Tori tilted her own head, “It’s not just in private though. They show that kind of affection all the time and
” She paused, trying to find the right words.
Beck apparently knew the right ones as he swooped a hand through his hair, “Their affection towards one another extends to how they treat other people.” He explained with a nod of his head. “Therefore, making them an extremely likable couple.”
Jade pursed her lips, “Those are just two experiences, for all we know they probably don’t even
what is it..” She mumbled, “Communicate, or whatever.”
Tori raised her brow, pulling up her phone before showing Jade a few pictures. “They got AndrĂ© a custom guitar and a keyboard that his favorite artist used in concert.” She began, holding her finger up when Jade tried to speak, “And his grandma likes them.” She nodded along with her own words, dropping something everyone was surprised about.
“That doesn’t mean-”
This time, Beck actually cut in, “AndrĂ© pulled strings and got them as a backup dancer for their favorite singer's music video.” 
“But do they communicate? You don’t know.”
Cat pursed her lips to the side, “I’m sure they communicate if they’re still together.”
“I mean Beck and Jade are still together, so clearly communication doesn’t mean much.” A voice from Robbies direction spoke out.
This apparently brought Jade to silence as she clenched her jaw and her eye twitched. That was until she suddenly stopped and she blinked at the group with a weird look, “When did this become a share circle?”
“When did what become a share circle?” A voice asked from the side of the table.
You and André sat at the end of the table, it was a little cramped and once they all realized, the main group's eyes went straight to Sinjin. The curly haired boy stood with his mouth in a line, waving goodbye as he walked away.
André’s arm was around your waist and you were holding both of your phones. “Sorry we’re late, the teacher held us back for a minute.” You explained, AndrĂ© confirming with a nod of his head.
“What were you guys talking about?” AndrĂ© asked, raising a brow at everyone, minus Jade, smiling at them.
Tori stood up and shook her head, “Nothing.” She spoke suspiciously with a smile, everyone standing up after her, including you and AndrĂ©.
Jade rolled her eyes, “They were all talking about what a great couple the two of you were.” She spoke, her expression neutral.
The two of you looked at each other and then back at your friends, “What?” You asked simultaneously.
Beck walked with Jade, his arm around her shoulder still, “You two just look good together is all.” He spoke, walking past you. 
The rest of your friends agreed, beginning their walk to the restaurant you guys decided you were going to for lunch.
The two of you were a little shocked so you were stuck, hand and hand, standing in the lunch plaza of your school.
You looked at your boyfriend and shrugged, “I mean, they aren’t wrong.” 
AndrĂ© laughed and shook his head, “Nope, they’re not.” He hummed, walking with you to catch up with your friends. “We do look good together.”

How can you thrive in the future? How can you thrive now?
Roni Sagi is a dog dancer who turned her love of dogs and dancing into a business. She has performed on America's Got Talent with her dog, Rhythm. Emily Odio-Sutton built a print-on-demand business on Etsy that generates 54,000 dollars monthly and paid off her student loan debt and financed family vacations. People are making money off selling food themed slime. People are quitting their 9-5 jobs and making money from blogging their every day lives! Making videos showing how they cook for their kids or organizing their fridge!!! bc they want to!! bc it makes them happy !! One time I bought a beautiful piece of artwork from a girl who makes money by drawing what she thinks your birth chart manifests as! These are not celebrities that are doing this. They are ordinary people that tune into their creativity and are getting ahead of the game. Without a doubt, they will be the ones that will thrive in pluto in aquarius!
Pluto is all about change and disruption, and we’re already seeing it happen (think AI, social unrest, big shifts in technology, shifts in societal norms). The people who are thriving right now are those using their creativity to get ahead. They aren’t waiting for permission or sticking to the usual path! They're creating their own. There's a future out there where that will be the norm and it won’t seem as outlandish when someone says that’s what they do for a living!
That doesn't mean traditional jobs will cease to exist but they definitely are going to change. My friend is a teacher and the kids tell her all the time that they want to be streamers or vlog in the future and parents will roll their eyes. But why not? There are people doing those things right now making millions and millions of dollars. It's not as farfetched as we think. And my friend is a teacher but she has thousands of followers on ig from posting reels on her favorite things: traveling and teaching.
And it’s not just about being talented!! it’s about spotting opportunities and turning your passions into something new. everyday people are finding ways to make their creativity work for them. The point is it doesn’t have to be through social media or you thinking you have to make new accounts its about what YOU like to do and what in your chart can support you in that. It has to be to your liking!
As Pluto moves into Aquarius, it’s clear that the future will belong to those who think outside the box and are ready to try new things. Aquarius energy is all about innovation and pushing boundaries. If you tap into your creativity now, you’ll be ahead of the curve and set yourself up to thrive in this rapidly changing world.
This doesn't mean you have to go on amazon rn and buy a whole bunch of painting supplies (I mean if you're super excited to do that go ahead) but tbh we can just start with reflecting on our lives. Thinking about our old hobbies or interests that we might have let go because we said there was no time or we deemed it too "childish") someone rn is doing their FAVORITE thing in the world and making a living off of it!
A personal example of mine: I am the first in my immediate family to go to college and get a degree. And because of that I felt the pressure of getting my masters (both as a measure of my success and to please my family) and I was in my masters program feeling overworked from working full time and having classes and just overall unhappy. I realized that I was just trying to collect degrees in a world where that doesn't guarantee a boost in pay or success anymore (at least in my job it doesn't). I made the choice to drop from my masters program and Im still at my current job! But I feel less stressed and can dedicate more time to thinks I actually like to do like writing, reading, painting, watching my shows! I’m not doing those things for money im doing them because 1) they make me happy and 2) I know they can bring all kinds of opportunities from nurturing my creativity to connecting with people. What are some things you miss doing? What are some hobbies that bring you joy?

When the Straw Hats brought you on board, they didn’t know what to expect. 
You were a girl Luffy thought was interesting and funny, so he decided to snatch you up and bring you along on his journey.
Unlike the feisty navigator who spent half of her time yelling at the boys for doing something stupid, or the elegant archaeologist who had a love for dark humor, you were different.
In some sense you were the genderbent version of Luffy. Nothing in your head, always smiling and laughing, finding something funny in the stupidest things. 
Because of that, everyday, the Sunny was filled with laughter and joy, as you and Luffy would be playing around and having fun. The crew didn’t think much of it at first; it wasn’t their first time seeing Luffy trying to play with a new crewmate, only this time you would reciprocate Luffy’s energy with your own.
Even though you’d love to goof around and maybe do extreme things, you always had an eye out for Luffy, making sure he wouldn’t do anything life threatening, chiding him later to never do it again.
You always spent your time with Luffy, no matter what. 
That’s why the Straw Hats weren’t too surprised when the two of you announced your relationship one day.
They didn’t think much of it at first, since they were used to the two of you goofing around and making commotion on deck. Rather, they were happy that they were finally clear on where your relationship stood.  
Everything remained the same, nothing really changed. You and Luffy still messed around on the ship, torturing poor Usopp and Chopper, occasionally getting scolded by Nami for knocking something over, but that was all there was. 
“Wait
 if Y/N is just Luffy but a girl
 does that mean we have to deal with two Luffys now?” Chopper randomly blurted out one day.
Everyone let out a collective groan, realizing that they had another baby they needed to take care of and make sure you’d stay alive.

roasting your moon sign pt 1. (Aries - Gemini) p.s. this one's gonna hurt your wittle feelings đŸ„Č
Aries Moon
OH MY GOD. SHUUUUUUT UPPP. Seriously, you don't have an off button and talking to you is very frustrating. It's kind of like you jut like hearing yourself talk, which is fine, but the rest of us are suffering. And Holy lack of emotional regulation! When you are upset, you are really upset, eh? Seriously, you cannot control your emotional reactions even if you tried your hardest. If you feel triggered, you have to let the whole room hear about it 🙄And one more thing -- why do you think speaking louder makes your argument valid? It's kind of like listening to a toddler start screaming because crying was not getting their mom's attention good enough. It's fine to have emotional outbursts once in a while, but try to remember you're an adult, not a six-year-old. Communication takes more than scream-crying until you are heard / get your way. Btw, y'all are some of the most delulu people out there! It's like, everyday is a rollercoaster for you emotionally and you kidnapped the rest of us to have to suffer with you. Yeah, that's right, you can be insufferable and the people around you feel it. Are you even aware of that, though? Or are you more focused on creating a narrative that makes you the victim? Your lack of impulse control is a whole other thing. We get that you react first and think last, but to have the audacity to blame others for your decisions/actions is wild. Oh you punched a wall? No, that person didn't make you do that, you did that. Oh, you're insecure so you acted out of character? No actually, it's not their fault because they are secure with themselves. It's all on you. Guess what? Accountability is not the same as being held at g*npoint. You will not die. You will not wither away. You are actually wrong a lot and that's fine, but you don't have to be such a tool about taking responsibility. It gives everyone in your life the ick, and people are probably tired of walking on egg shells around you. đŸ€·â€â™€ïž
Tumblr media
Moon in 1st House:
Tumblr media
Okay, drama Queen/King!🙄😅Besides the fact that you literally wear your heart on your sleeve, you are also so dramatic and for what, special effect? Seriously, you emotionally respond to things with the same voracity and urgency as you would an actual emergency. You can literally stub your toe and have a meltdown over it, saying that was your "13th reason" likeee y'all are D R A M A T IC and because I also have this placement, I know it's because it actually feels really dramatic but tbh it's not that deep. You just feel too deeply which is fine but guess what? You're still responsible for your emotions, no one else is. You sacrifice your power too often looking for acceptance and love, and then expect the people who you give said power, to reciprocate the same energy but they never do because what you are really expecting from them is you and that's pretty messed up tbh. You gotta let people be! your attachment issues are showing. BTW, being the sacrificial lamb in every situation does not actually gain you aura points, it just makes it obvious that you lack boundaries. The People around you take advantage of you because 9/10 times, you have made it pretty clear very early on that taking advantage of your kindness can be easy to do. Its insane that people have projected on you your whole life, and yet, you still can't detect when its happening. People are not mean to you because they hate you lol but the fact that you make everything about yourself makes it even easier for these people to project their problems onto you. Why wouldn't they? You are all consuming, and you take on the responsibility of everyone's actions, making yourself a stomping ground for ab*se. Your problem is, you are looking to find you in everyone and you will constantly be disappointed because that's something you will not find. Learn to be comfortable with others showing you how they feel, and accept it for what it is instead of for what you want it to be. Your scope of other's emotions needs work -- there's a whole universe outside of your own mind. You gotta learn to consider others emotional needs and try to walk in the shoes of other people once in a while and you will see that not everything is not in relation, caused by, or about you. Also, you have the same emotional regulation as a toddler sometimes. Stop making your problems, everyone's problems. Go to therapy.

OKAAAAAY, SLOTH. How do you expect to have the rich bitch bougee life you keep creating pinterest boards about if you won't even get off the couch and take small steps to reach those goals? Queen of "manifestation", all things "come to me naturally". Can we cut the bs and call a spade, a spade? You are lazy. You know deep deep down that you have the gift of the moon as your placement's exalted, but you have proven so many times that you prefer comfort over work. You're sitting there, waiting for the universe to deliver all the things you want in life, but your uninspired, bland, lazy ass won't even break a sweat for half of what you want in this world. YOU are the reason you do not seem to accomplish as much as you want to, because you do not challenge yourself. Do you feel incapable? I would if I'd rather live in repetitive and tired routines instead of challenging myself to grow. Speaking of growth.... do you even know what that is? Or are you still holding the same opinions of people that you had in middle school? Guess what, people grow and change... it is time to catch up! Why are you more comfortable with clinging onto the past, especially onto an old way of thinking? How is that actively helping your life? Be so for real. You cling & obsess over the past because its easier to revictimize yourself & build resentment than it is to take responsibility and make changes. Why is it more comfortable being stubbornly wrong, instead of owning up to your ways?
Tumblr media
Moon in 2nd House
Tumblr media
STAY OUT OF MY WALLET & GET A JOB! Seriously -- for someone who needs & craves financial stability, you sure will do a whole lot of nothing to get it. It's so weird because you manage to do absolutely nothing, and the people around you end up picking up your tab. What's it like being the community leech? And another thing... why is it that you feel you only have value when the 'yes men' around you over compliment you, or give you attention? Why is it that you cannot regulate your sense of self worth, but instead need to feed your self-esteem through manipulation, clinginess, and insecurity? Your relationships are probably prone to being unstable because of this. You are too much. Your expectations are too much, and they do not even match what you are willing to give back. You can't expect other people to pour from an empty cup just because You can't seem to fill your own. Your erratic self-esteem issues have an impact on your closest loved ones but your mindset is in the gutter because of how harshly you cling onto old mindsets and negative beliefs. Your greediness is not justified, no matter how much you have been hurt. You seem to never take your pain out in a healthy way, or on the person who actually inflicted the pain. If people come too close, you automatically assume there's alternative motives, even if there's no reason to think that. You act more like an 8H moon in your lowest vibration, and ironically enough, you are "triggered" and angry with other people who act this way. Your self-awareness is probably is as little as your confidence because you seem to live in your own bubble, and cannot understand how your own projections you put on other people are hurtful and make you look very weak. Your people pleasing tendencies will never grant you the stability you seek and until you take accountability, responsibility, and action to secure the life/lifestyle you want for yourself, you will always think shrinking yourself through people pleasing equals safety. But ya know, BE DELULU.
Tumblr media
Gemini Moon
Tumblr media
OHMYGOD CAN YOU SHUTTHEFUCKUP?! Yes, your friends do think you are annoying as fuck. It's because you never know when to STFU. And the worst part? It's not like you don't know you talk a lot... you do. you know you can dominate a conversation like no other. You are aware of the snotty asshole you sound like when you articulate and use word play to your advantage, and you don't care lol. If you're not that person, you're the opposite - you're weird af, you still never shut up, you have weird af obsessions, collections, and stories, and chances are you're easily forgotten about 😅 You share random facts with your friends all the time and at first it was really funny but because you never know when to stop, your friends are over it. When you talk, they sigh. It's because being your friend is exhausting. It's always the GEMINI MOON SHOW!!!! and you never give them (or anyone) the space to express themselves. You think you know what everyone wants and because you are lowkey controlling, you make decisions for others -- can you be any fuckin' worse? No wonder people don't really like hanging out with you lol. By the way, you are so dense. For being a mercury ruled moon, you would think you'd be better at reading people and yet, you constantly miss the red flags in others. What's it like being a door mat? It's like you know they hurt you, you know they are sus, and you don't care. LOL btw y'all are really big cry babies and so sensitive sometimes. You'd think that being a gemini moon would make you easy going, but you walk around and act like you have a stick up your ass. Your submissive nature is 10000% your decision but you have this talent of blaming other people for why you have codependency issues, let's call you the King/Queen of Projection. You act out, you push people away, you start fights and for what? For people to pay attention to you? lol that's sad. Why do you feel you are only worthy of getting attention when there's controversy? When you act out of character? Is it because you feel like no one cares about what you have to say unless you're being the worst version of yourself? Is that why you are so skilled at wearing masks with people? Maybe if you spent more time figuring your shit out, spending more time with yourself, and less time giving a fuck about others, you'd be able to heal the identity you shattered trying to morph into whatever everyone else wanted you to be. Basically, FIGURE OUT WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE SO YOU CAN STOP BEING AN ASSHOLE TO SECURE PEOPLE.
Tumblr media
Moon in 3H
Tumblr media
WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?! You wishy-washy bitch you lol. (pls don't take this seriously this is a roast ok? ily) But fr, who even are you? Because you switch up your entire personality depending on the group of people you're around. You think no one notices this but I promise you they do and they're tired of your shit. A lot of people probably find you unreliable because you also seriously lie...over dumb things too? Like, who lies about what they had for breakfast? Pfft. This need to maintain a certain level of "mystery" is actually kinda cringe because you are actually so transparent. Also, you do realize you cause a lot of your own problems, right? No one can drive people away better than you can, huh? :) Your need for banter and excitement is all fun and games until it became really fucking annoying. People do not like to constantly be poked and picked at and tested. Especially if you think you're some prize to win over. Speaking of being some prize... your ego though? It's like to feel intelligently superior, your say a whole lot of nothing polished in purple prose to humiliate others. Imagine being so insecure with yourself that you feel the need to verbally tear down the ones who are just plain doing better than you in life. Your problem is that you spend so much time focusing on the people around you, wanting to gain their approval, wanting to be the center of attention, that you actually end up losing sight of your identity and you become this annoying asshole 😅🙈 By the way, you definitely do talk soooo much shit about people, and yes it is so unnecessary. MAYBE IF YOU STOPPED YAPPIN YOUR TRAP ABOUT PEOPLE, THE PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE WOULDN'T ALWAYS LEAVE YOU or fantasize about leaving you for your much hotter family member, sibling, or friend đŸ€­
Pt. 2-4 are coming x

What I've learned in 2023 (part I)
i. Compatibility is what you are looking for. A compatible home, a compatible partner, a compatible workplace, a compatible friend circle. Compatible with who you are as a person and the kind of life you want to live. Compatible so that you don’t constantly have to use so much of your energy in trying to fight unnecessary battles simply to exist how you are. When the spaces you are in and the people you are with are not compatible with your existence the way it is, the way you want it to be, there will be constant chaos, distress, and conflict for which you will have to use so much energy. But if you are in compatible spaces with compatible people – not ideal, not perfect, simply compatible – then you can use that energy towards creating and building things that matter to you. Because your everyday choices? They are not being questioned, judged, or blocked.
ii. Lessons will keep repeating themselves until you've learned them. So you have to start paying attention. Realizations in themselves are not lessons learned. Change in actions and thought processes is. So, yes, lessons will keep repeating themselves until you learn them. And even once you have learned them. It's like with how we learned the same subjects in school year after year. Just because you learned Geography in grade 5, does not mean you still did not have to in grades 6, 7, 8, and so on. Life lessons too have additional layers, context, and depth. It can all feel very Sisyphean. But the boulder is never the exact same twice. Similar but not identical.
iii. Just because he was a puppy before, does not mean he is not a à€•à„à€€à„à€€à€Ÿ (dog) right now.
iv. 읞연 (in-yeon) is the fate specific to the meeting of two people, the ties two people share over the course of their lives. Someone you have perhaps comes across in your past life/lives in various capacities. And so, yes, when you come across someone you feel comfortable with, can have meaningful conversations with effortlessly, feel a ‘connection’ with, feel the 읞연 with it feels special. But 읞연 is also the fate of this life. Maybe in this life you’re only meant to share this very limited, very brief, 읞연 with someone. Even if you feel this deep connection. Maybe in this life they are not meant to be your soulmate or your best friend. Maybe they are only meant to be your professor or your neighbour. Let it be so. Accept that fate, accept this life’s 읞연 with them. No matter the intensity of the connection. Again, let things run their natural course. There is no other way.
v. I am an open book that even a blind man can read. An open book so heavily and aesthetically self-annotated that people can play me like a fool just for shits and giggles. And while I have started to appreciate humour a lot more in life, I am not okay with my candidness, earnestness, and vulnerability being mocked, manipulated, or misused. I am still not clear on how to protect myself in this aspect but I do know two things clearing — first, forcing myself to change who I am at my most authentic core is not the answer. Second, there, however, does need to be some protection. Think of yourself like a special edition, rare precious book in a fancy, restricted-access library. Only members, who loves books, who value books, who take great care of them, and have a track record of doing so can borrow the book/check it out of the library. Essentially, you must be more mindful of who gets access to you. And like you can continue being your real, authentic self, but you do not have to be that all the time and with everybody.
vi. Speaking about vulnerability, let's talk about the semantics of it for a bit. It's The word 'vulnerability' is derived from the Latin word 'vulnus' which literally means — the ability to wound. Why? Why would you do that with people you don't yet know well + trust to be safe? That's why one of the lessons of this year is the realization to get rid of this blanket vulnerability. It's not some sort of strength, it's simply dangerous.
vii. On that note, conversations, even emotional conversations cannot be an indicator of the actual real (lasting) comfort and intimacy and trust between you and the other person. That only happens naturally over time.
viii. So, yeah, timing and time? It is your friend; not a bitch. Allow people and things time to run their course and reveal themselves to you. There’s no need to feel anxious or responsible to make things with somebody flow a certain way because at the end of the day, no matter what you say or do, things will pan out the way they are meant to. So, trying to rush things, trying to lowkey orchestrate them, or putting so much thought into things like how you’re punctuating your texts is futile. What is meant to be is meant to be and feeling FOMO when it comes to people and relationships only really happens when you create elaborate scenarios in your head before even getting to know somebody.
ix. Capturing everything more in videos instead of pictures is precious. That motion of your friend kissing your cheek and that motion of the street cat moving her tale in and out of the sunshine falling on the ground is what you really want to capture and look back on.

I just can't do this!
Alex (sdv) x gn!reader
Kinda hurt/comfort but more just the reader getting out frustration. Lots of the reader swearing lmao
Not proofread, approximately 1k?? I really need to get a word count on these..
Today sucked. Today fucking sucked!
Nothing was going right. Oh my Yoba why can't anything go fucking right?! A new season started so all of your crops died, and you miscalculated how much money you would need for new seeds. Then you went mining to try and make up for the money. But you ended up getting beat by a zombie and needing medical attention from Harvey that you couldn't exactly afford.
You lost your best sword. You used up nearly all of your left over berries from the last season and Yoba knows how long it'll be until this season's start growing again.
And that's what you came home like to Alex. You hadn't cleared the old crops so now you were just stomping over and over on a poor old parsnip.
"You uh.. you alright there babe?" Alex walked over to you, kinda laughing at your pathetic attempt at rage, but was genuinely curious.
"No! No I am not fucking alright, Alex! Nothing is fucking going right. The whole town can go to shit for all I care! They won't get my crops anymore! Pierre can go fuck off, claiming my shit as his own. The mayor can piss off and cry to his girlfriend. But oh wait! He can't! because he is too much of a fucking asshole to actually say Marnie is his girlfriend!!"
You stomped more at the dust that was a parsnip. Every attempt got mildly more and more enraged and pathetic. All of the emotion and pent up anger was boiling to the surface but you were so tired from the repeated stomping it had become deranged.
"Okay, whew that was.. a lot(!) of emotion! You need out of here, like now." He went up and grabbed your shoulders. "I know just the place!" He shot you his signature smile before holding your hand and leading you away. You attempted to pull him off of you but couldn't manage to do anything. Today was rough and you were getting tired.
"Here, babe. Drink this. I just opened it before you came home. It's still cold!" He handed you a protein drink.
"Thanks," You spat out. You weren't meaning to be rude to him. But today was just so god awful!!! He knew you didn't mean it though, so he just kept walking.
Eventually, the two of you arrived at the bus. "What are we doing here? It is way to late to go to the desert."
"While we may be going to the desert, we are going somewhere you have never been before!"
You gave him an intense staredown. "And you're sure this is a good idea? It's mid-afternoon. Everything will be closing soon."
"Not everything! C'mon babe, let's go. You'll see." He pushed you forward onto the bus. And Yoba, that drink was awful! How did he drink those everyday..??
By the time you arrived to the desert it was nearly 7. You were still upset, and starting to get annoyed at the fact you didn't know where you were going.
"And here we are!" It was a beat up old building.
"Alex. Dear. What are the fuck we doing at an abandoned building in the middle of the God damn desert?!" It was too late for all this shit.
He stepped up and opened the door to reveal a dingy 24 hour gym. How had you never known this was here????
"It's been a while since I've been. Probably like 2 years? But they have this!" He gestured to a set of boxing gloves and a punching bag. "Perfect to get out frustration!"
"Babe I don't think I need a punching bag I think I need to legit punch someone in the face."
"They have a printer so you can print whoever's face you want and punch it." He pointed over to an old printer in the corner.
Holy shit, they really did! Too bad you didn't have your phone to print anything.
"Babe. Your anger is totally valid, and a lot of the times it leaves you with a lot of energy that you don't know what to do with." He looked around, reminiscing a bit.
"I know when I can here I was still pissed to all hell about my dad. Sometimes even thinking about him still makes me upset. And now, obviously, you can't go around kicking dead parsnips everyday. So here is a thing you can punch all you want! No danger from the mines, and no repercussions if you screw up. Perfect to let out some frustration."
For how beat up the outside looked, the inside was still pretty nice. There was a table of boxing gloves, and a few mats you could hit. Next to the table, there was both a hanging and standing punching bag.
"Now let's see what you've got."
He tossed you a pair of gloves, and picked up a large mat to warm up on your swings.
"This is silly" you kinda laughed the sentence out, but it truly was a silly thing. You knew that it probably would help, but he made it into the grand reveal that was just so silly.
"It may feel stupid, but you will fell better! I found that it helped more if I said out loud what I was angry at before I punch something."
"Okay... let's try" You put on the gloves, and they were a little too big, but that's okay.
"Whenever you're ready." He looked at you up and down. Even pissed as hell you were still hot.
"I hate that my crops die the second a new season starts!"
*bam*
"I hate Pierre for taking credit for my work!"
*bam*
"I hate that Mayor Lewis is a dumb greedy bastard who mistreats Marnie!"
*bam*
"I hate how long to damn community center is taking to build!"
*bam bam*
Your list went on and on. Punch after punch landed into the pad. Alex at first was trying to stifle laughter from how silly your complaints were, but quickly shut up when you started putting force into your hits. He was stumbling from the impact you left, where honestly it turned into a workout for him too.
When you were finally done, you felt great. It didn't solve anything, but all of the pent up energy got realesed in a shocking fun way.
"Babe.." Alex looked at you. "Remind me to never piss you off"
You burst out laughing. "Awh dear, I could never get mad at you." You booped his nose after setting the gloves down. "Is there anything else you'd like to do here? I seriously can't believe you've never taken me here!"
"No. No I'm good. Trying to not fall from you hitting the mat was enough for me." He laughed, and you could genuinely see he was wiped out.
So the two of you went home, and made casual conversation. He tried to get you to drink another protein shake but you strongly declined. Those things are seriously gross.
"Thank you Alex. It was really nice of you to take me there."
"Of course!" And he shot you another one of his signature smiles, just like earlier. The two of you made it a habit to go at least every other week from then on.

Rest in Peace Ava ~2013-2024
On Thursday, 8/22, Ava passed away. She had what the vet believes was a stroke, and they said the kindest thing was to put her to sleep. Ava came into my life unexpectedly 9 years ago in need of help. Her first owners had bought her for their kids and the kids had gotten bored of her long ago. They left her in the garage for the first 2 years of her life. She'd never had hay in her life, having eaten only Kaytee, she was overweight, and had one of the worst cases of ear mites the vet had seen.
She was aggressive at first, biting at anyone who reached into her cage. I'm sure this is something she quickly learned would keep prodding hands away from her in her old home, and the pain in her ears must have been pretty awful at first. The first few days we'd leave her cage door open, but she'd be too scared to explore. I remember when she finally took her first steps out of the cage, she never wanted to go back. She was frantic, running around for hours, flopping over for a few minutes, and going right back to running, jumping, and exploring. Ava'd likely never experienced a world beyond her cage and it was like she wanted to see it all before it was taken away from her again. In one infamous incident, she scaled a baby gate and broke the tip of a nail. Once she seemed to realize she was able to do this everyday, she calmed down, and there was no longer a frantic energy to her explorations.
After her ear mites were treated, she was introduced to our Dutch rabbit, Mordecai. The two hit it off instantly and were inseparable until Mordecai's death two years ago. We had once had a rabbit rescuer tell us Mordecai had terrible rabbit manners, and I think Ava was the same, and perhaps that's why the two of them worked so well.
Ava was fearless and feisty. She had a grunt that sounded like a deep growl and wasn't afraid to bat at you when she was pissed. She would run up and down the stairs, exploring the whole house without fear, much to the distress of Mordecai who was too scared to go down the stairs. He'd wait at the top of the stairs for her, until she returned or until one of us carried him down to join her.
Two years ago, Ava got really sick with an unknown infection. She had cysts in her face and lungs. A long course of antibiotic injections cleared the infection, but unfortunately the cyst in her face was behind her eye and was pushing on the eye and it had to be removed. At that point, she was about 9 and the surgery was her only option but risky. Ava went to the vet for her surgery, and that night, Mordecai took a sharp decline. It was like he had been holding out for her and once she was gone, he let go. Mordecai was rushed to the vet and it turned out he had cancer. There was nothing that could be done except keep him comfortable.
Ava recovered from her surgery, her illness, and losing Mordecai and we were lucky to have her in our lives for 2 more years. She was slowing down, she developed arthritis and had to eventually be put on Meloxicam for life, but was still as feisty as ever. She'd been doing really well these past few weeks, but unfortunately her age and health caught up with her.
Rest in Peace Ava and Mordecai, together again.

If you’ve been seeing 111/1111 this is for you!
Heavy air energy for who these messages may be for.. you may have air in your mercury placement in your birth chart (don’t have to) but Mercury energy is very present and this rules the mind/ intellect, communication and how you think and process information. You may need to take a look at this aspect in your chart and get know more about this placement so that you can understand yourself better and help you to gain a better perspective on how to go about certain things/ situations differently.
You’re needing to ease your mind especially my overthinkers and worse case scenario’s folks lol. Whenever you see 111/1111 it’s a sign and warning to pay very close attention to not only detail BUT be aware of your thoughts being that your thoughts will manifest into your everyday life. The next time you see 111/1111, remember the very last thought you had and how you were feeling in that moment. Most of you are needing to ease your mind and get more rest
 stop worrying is what I’m getting. You’re needing to allow for things to come to you rather you always needing or feeling the need to fight and struggle to get what you want. You’re heavily in your masculine energy and it doesn’t matter if you’re a male or female. You’re needing to embody being more present and just being in the state of BEING. Which is the feminine energy, again it doesn’t matter if you’re a male or female we all embody both qualities. Meditation is key and your best friend. Allow ideas to follow and allow yourself to flow because going against can cause unwelcome outcomes or stagnancy.
I also feel like you may have an idea that’s sitting in your mind and maybe you’re having a hard time executing it which is fine because in due time you’ll be able to and I feel like spirit is saying that because divine timing may be at play too. For others, I’m getting a pessimistic attitude or approach to something. It’s like you’re being given or handed something and you may not want it or like it or you’re very unsure with it. I’m also feeling that this may be coming towards you as well whether it’s an idea, offer or message could be either physical or spiritual. Whichever it is you’re being guided to be open to it spiritually and mentally. You’re also too much in la la land and not fully present so working on your root chakra which will help you with grounding yourself and your energy.
I’m seeing “bag lady” energy lol. You may be a Pisces or Erykah Badu is confirmation for you. You’re carrying WAY too much mentally and physically. You’re someone who may be a bit too hard/ harsh on yourself. You are your biggest and worst enemy. You force when you should be allowing. Allow yourself to be guided, and relinquish the need to be in control of everything. You also have to accept that not everything is going to go your way and it’s for reasons that you may not see. “Unforeseen” is what I’m hearing, it’s like there may be unforeseen events ahead of you that you don’t know/ see which is why you’re guides have been trying to guide but also uplift you at the same time. Your faith will be restored once you see and understand WHY certain things couldn’t go your way. You’re also being called to pay attention but to also lead with clear intentions don’t just go about things aimlessly because you can easily dig yourself a ditch. Remove obstructions and distractions from your life whether it’s outside influences or within yourself. Be mindful of the information you receive because not information/ advice is good information/ advice. Some times doing your research can be more beneficial. However this doesn’t mean to not take any advice or information but always have a back up or a second opinion even if that second opinion comes from you
 I hope that made sense (11:01 as I typed that).
Do NOT walk aimlessly or walk an unknown path aimlessly
 that is key! Think of it like this
 would you walk in a dark forest just because? NOPE! Because you’re unaware of potential danger! Be properly prepared before doing anything! “2 steps ahead” is what I’m hearing. As I’m typing that, the “Betterhelp” commercial came on lol so that’s definitely a sign for someone.
You have the energy to strive for greater but that can also set you back or hold you back. It’s good to chill out and relax and take things one step at a time. There’s no need to rush the process or anything for that matter. You have the attitude of being headstrong but sometimes that can be very unfulfilling and possibly draining. You may always feel the need to protect and guard even if it feels unfulfilling to you or may feel like it’s not enough or something is missing. For some of you, it’s time to celebrate, celebrate yourself, your flaws, your milestone(s), achievements, etc. You don’t always have to be strong it’s okay to feel, it’s okay to be open and vulnerable too. Spirit is also wanting for you to be more of a free thinker too because it seems as though you stick to one thing and one thing only but there’s a need to expand your mind/ thinking. Which is why your mercury placement is very important. Jenga may be significant, proper structure is significant too. But I also wanted to say that, the move can forfeit your foundation.. remember faulty foundations and structure can lead to everything crumbling down! Spirit wants to also add that you need to have a shift in perspective, see what works and what doesn’t and why every time you try to build the foundation it never stands for long. I hope these messages help!

Lights: Matt Murdock x reader
Tumblr media
Christmas bingo day 4: lights
***
Of all the christmas decorations Y/N loved lights the most.
She was one of those people who are more than happy to retreive the light chains In the middle of November, put them around the house (both inside and outside), creating a magical atmosphere and enjoying long, cold autumn/winter evenings while sipping hot chocolate under the weighted blanket with multicolored mini bulbs everywhere.
Maybe it had something to do with her character, after all, there was a reason why Matt used to call her a firefly.
But-
There was one thing that casted a shadow on her little light affection.
Matt couldn’t see them.
So how was she supposed to enjoy it fully when the most important person in her life was stripped of the view of iluminated christmas tree and the multishaped christmas decorations set all over town? Obviously he never seemed to care, rather reconciled with the accident that happened so many years ago leaving him blind, but still - being unable to share the experience to the full extend was like a scar on heart.
It was yearly tradition, that every December Karen, Foggy, Matt and Y/N attended the NY light show to feel the christmas amosphere and be a part of something extraordinary that helped them get away from everyday’s trouble. Obviously, for many, it was also the perfect opportunity to spend time with long-unsee friends and family, cause the event surely attracted people from across the globe. And yet again – it made Y/N question the choice and coming out with multiple, improbable excuses to not go this particular year.
„Don’t be silly Y/N, it’s tradition!” Foggy grabbed his heart feigning heart attack upon hearing another faint argument coming from his friend. „You’re not sick, all your limbs are fully functional, the only part of you that seems to overwire is your brain if you think we’re letting you break the rules. You’re coming.”
Try to argue with a lawyer.
She should have known better.
***
It was amazing.
Every little detail was perfectly perfect, starting from the alley leading to the main showplace, that was festooned with lanters, through the path freshly cleared from snow ending on lit up ice sculptures.
Y/N could barely hide her excitement, squeezing Matt’s hands in her gloved one, turning around and spinning with eyes wide opened, taking in all the attractions of this winder wonderland out of space and time.  Trying her best to ignore amused gazes coming from Karen and Foggy, who, year after year called her a flurried kid.
Matt just kept quiet shaking head a little with his tiny sinature smile that showed his affection to the ball of positive energy that Y/N was.
„Hey Mattie, wait a moment” she grabbed his hand a little tighter making him stop letting Karen and Foggy walk by
„What is it sunshine?” he turned his head towards her, not stopping smiling. Even though he could not possibly see the concerned and a little awkward expression on her face he somehow sensed the change in her attitude and the grin slowly gave way to confused frown „hey, are you all right?” his hand found a way to her cheek rubbing it gently „thought you were enjoying being here?”
„I am! I am, it’s just – „ she insinctively leaned into his touch enjoying the warmth. „we don’t actually have to attend the show if-?”
She didn;t get to finish as Matt dragged her away from the main path, cleatly wanting some privacy to have a word. Once they dived between the trees and no one could hear them he turned to face her again.
„Talk to me. Why the sudden change of mood, Y/N? You love this show. You love the lights and all those backlit reindeer figurines. I already bought you one as a christmas gift. So what is it?”
„I wish I could share the view with you
” she whispered looking at the ground and kicking some snow awkwardly.
„You could descibe it to me
” he smiled, grabbing her shoulders and holding to him.
„I’m not a poet or a writer, I don’t think I can find the right words to do so
..”
„Ok then, I need you to do me a favor, all right?”
„Sure
” she whispered, her voice stuttering a little from everything she was feeling at the moment.
„I need you to take a look around, ok? Nothing more, just take a look around, no words needed. Can you do that?”
„I guess
.?”
And once she started taking in all the surroundings, getting lost in them she didn’t notice the wide grin forming on Matt’s face. Not until he grabbed her from behind making her jump a little.
„I love you.” He muttered into her hair kissing her temple.
„I love you too, but what-?” Y/n spun around so that they were facing each other, Matt’s hold on her not faltering in the slightest.
„I can hear your heart beating faster Y/N. I can feel your skin getting warmer. I can almost sense your happiness coming from every pore in your skin, so how can I possibly be upset just because I can’t see the lights? You’re my light Y/N. You’re my light in the darkness
.”
„Matt, I -”
„hush, little one. Don’t speak.” He leaned his forehead on hers, brushing her upper lip with his thumb  bringing a shy, loving smile on her face „There it is. The best part of being here with you
 Just let me enjoy this
”
„You’re a hopeless romantic, you know that?” she whispered through her emotion-clenched throat
„Mhm
 And I know you let Karen and Foggy get Ahead of us for a reason, sweetheart. I think you’ll be missing this year’s show after all, cause I’m keeping you here all to myself. Under those buzzing christmas lights.”

Nagi Hachinoya Novel
Essence of a Bouquet
Track 03 - Healing that occurs when you awaken your Empath Chakra
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Hideko "Everyone is looking much brighter now, a huge difference from when you had first joined. Can you sense your happiness approaching? Now, today we shall awaken our chakras together-"
Master Hideko seemed divine and full of love today as well, just like a Goddess.
Black cat avatar "Wow, today was a great gathering as usual! When Master Hideko awakened my sixth chakra, I felt a whole new world open up in front of me. Is this what they call a vision!?"
Nagi "It's cool that you managed to see it Norisuke-san."
Norisuke "Aw Negi-kun, you couldn't see it? I thought we'd be buddies who opened their chakras at the same time too
"
At the usual lobby in mahorova.
Norisuke-san was the person with the black cat avatar. Though he said it was a fake name. That's why I gave him a fake name too; "Negi".
This is our 4th gathering. Norisuke-san has attended every one so far, and always makes sure to sit beside me. Master Hideko's sermons were helpful, and I was happy that I was getting along better with Norisuke-san as time passes.
Norisuke "By the way, it seems like they'll be holding an offline meeting at their company building in two weeks. I think it'd be great if we could meet Master Hideko in the flesh
"
Nagi "That does sound great."
Norisuke "Right? 
Oops, look at the time, I gotta go! See you at the next gathering!"
Nagi "See you later."
~~~~
After logging out of mahorova, I couldn't help but feel liberated. I head towards the living room, wondering if there was anyone there. I was feeling so elated I skipped my way there.
Ryui "The hell you prancing around for. Some of us are trying to watch TV here."
Toi "You look like you're in a good mood Nagi-kun, did something good happen?"
Toi and Ryui were watching television in the living room."
I bow slightly in apology for interrupting them, and look at the screen myself.

Apparently it was some news about some fraud company getting exposed.
Ryui "Lately there's been some shady business going on, something to do with fake spiritual goods and techniques and what not."
Nagi "Ooh that sounds scary."
Toi "Isn't it unforgivable!? People and spirits alike, we all just want to be happy. I can't believe there are people taking advantage of others' good will to try and make money off of them."
Nagi "Yup. It's unforgivable."
That's right, everyone is searching for their happiness. That's why we give it our all everyday.
That's why, after I test it out a bit more, I want to share this with everyone at HAMA Tours. About Master Hideko's power, and how great Secret Energy is.
Ryui "Claiming that your dead kid is suffering, that your ancestors require a memorial service urgently
 People who take advantage of other's weaknesses and make a whole business scam out of it ought to get the death penalty."
Toi "Yes
 I'm sure God is watching over us. Right
?"
Toi and Ryui were talking about spiritual business scams.
Meanwhile, I-
'If only I had access to Secret Energy back then
'
Then maybe I could have been of help to Minemori-san. I couldn't help the feeling of regret that welled up as I remembered her face.
The autumnal sky was clear that day, and left a deep impression on me.
Nagi "Huh?"
I came by the laundromat as I usually do, but it was closed right now. Even though it was normally open at this time. I found it strange, so I went around the back and pressed the intercom button.
Mrs.Minemori "Ah
 Hachinoya-kun? The shop's closed today
 no, we'll be closed for the time being."
She was crying.
I rushed to her immediately.
Nagi "What happened?"
That's when I learned.
That her husband was hospitalized after falling off a ladder and breaking his hip. That the bluebird they took care of flew out of the window and never came back. That someone had scammed them out of a large sum of money by using the name of their disowned son. They had reported it to the police, but it didn't seem like it would be resolved any time soon. This series of unfortunate events had turned their life upside-down overnight
Mrs.Minemori "The shop has been struggling lately
 even if we turned it around now, we'd still be in debt
"
Nagi "

"
Mrs.Minemori "I was thinking that maybe it was time I closed up shop
"
Minemori-san, who was always so bright and smart, seemed very frail right now.
I couldn't bear to see her like that, so I couldn't help but blurt out-
Nagi "My kidney."
Mrs. Minemori "What?"
Nagi "I'll sell one of my kidneys, so please use that money for your store."
Mrs.Minemori "What in the world are you saying child!? We're really ok, so you should just run along! You have a part-time job to head to don't you?"
Not wanting to worry me, she gives me a brave smile. As if trying to convince herself, she keeps repeating that they'd be ok, and closes the door on me.
Nagi "Are you pleased with this?"
Customer "Wow! It's so cute!"
Whenever I make a bouquet for a customer, I receive a bright smile. A face of "happiness".
It was raining outside. I'm sure it was raining where the laundromat was at too.
Someone like me, who has no family nor money
 the only thing I could do was tie some flowers together, and send it to them.
Nagi "Senpai, could you take the cost of this bouquet off my pay?"
Pink roses, baby's breath, and lily of the valley. With my knowledge on flower language, I hoped it would provide them some strength, even if only a little.
Even for just a moment, I want them to remember the scent of happiness.
Nagi "Muuun
."*
I already have enough happiness, that's why, I wanted to give it back, no matter how little. That was my wish.
Nagi "I'm sorry for bothering you again."
Mrs.Minenori "Oh Hachinoya-kun, what am I to do with you
 I told you, we're alright
"
Nagi "Actually, I-"
I've lived with unhappiness every step of my life.* That's why I'd be ok even if I can't be happy. That's why, I wanted to give my happiness to these two irreplaceable people instead. Because they were kind to even someone like me-
Nagi "I was the child that was abandoned here back then."
With this bouquet, let me protect the both of you and your store.
Notes
Flower Language for the flowers Nagi picks for the couple (taken from Japanese websites for closer accuracy to original intent) Pink Roses: Gratitude Baby's breath: Happiness Lily of the Valley: Return of happiness
*'Muuun' is the sound he makes when he's instilling his happiness energy/thoughts(ćż”) into the flowers, literally.
*Nagi literally says "My existence is like unhappiness itself" but that sounded a little off so I changed it. What he means is he's been unhappy all his life and is used to it already.

Anon wrote: Hi mbti-notes, I don’t know what to do about my long time friend, so I reach out to you for help. Your insights are always spot on and I want to thank you for this blog, I’ve learned a lot thanks to you. I’m xnfj, my friend is infp and likely autistic, we’re both 27.
She is really sweet, but I feel confused. The thing is that she doesn’t greet my family or people in general. When we were younger, it felt so surreal that I didn’t know how to react – so I ignored it even if it made me feel terrible. Later I asked her multiple times to greet at least my family members, as it makes me feel weird, she started greeting but only sometimes.
Not only she won’t greet first, but even when someone greets her, she won’t reply, which feels extremely inappropriate, especially when it is my family. It happens all the time when we go places, she won’t greet the host, etc. When I asked her why, she said it costs her too much energy to say hello.
Recently, me and my parent ran into her twice on the street. One time I think she was pretending not to see us, the other time she said hi only to me and quite literally ran away. (Yet I know that saying hi is not such an issue for her when it comes to people she likes, that’s when shouts hello even from across the street, which makes me feel twice as offended – to see this extreme difference of behavior towards some people that oftentimes she barely knows.) Then she acts as if nothing happened. Anytime I touch the topic, she denies it, explains it etc. and doesn’t understand that her behavior affects others – or she just doesn’t care.
I understand that with autism greeting can be difficult, but it doesn’t work for me – also when I made it clear that it makes me really uncomfortable. I feel like I have accommodated a lot of her issues out of friendship, so I am taken aback to see it is one-sided. I really wish we could continue being friends but I can’t imagine hanging out with her without feeling angry deep down.
And even if she started to greet, I would feel like it is forced and insincere. So my question is, what do I do? I am so confused and full of conflicting feelings. Break up? Distance? Explain myself? Or not? If you have any insight, I will really appreciate it. It’s been a month that I haven’t talked to her as I literally don’t know what to say or do. Thank you so much in advance and wish you a pleasant weekend!
----------------------
You say you understand that it "can be difficult" for her but it doesn't sound like you actually do understand. You might feel bad to hear that, but this is not about assigning blame. I'm attempting to pinpoint the source of the problem in order to discover the best solution. As far as I can tell, there are two aspects to this problem:
Problem #1: Lack of Understanding
When someone's psychology is very different from yours, it's going to be very difficult for you to understand each other, because the other person's experience is simply too alien to "make sense" to you. I always say: Just because it doesn't make sense to you, doesn't mean there's no sense to be found. This huge gap in understanding is not an insurmountable problem, but it is a significant challenge to grapple with. It requires you to push your empathy skills to the max.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurological and developmental disorder. "Neurological" means that a person's brain is literally wired differently than the average neurotypical person, which is why we use the term neurodivergent to indicate the difference. "Developmental" means that typical psychological development is somehow interrupted, so autistic people will exhibit some deficiencies in information processing and difficulties with everyday functioning.
Perhaps an analogy can make it more clear: Imagine that a friend was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy and was gradually losing muscle mass and control of their lower body. Even though they can still walk, they need a wheelchair most of the time because it quickly becomes painful to use their back and legs. Would you say to them, "Hey, I'm throwing a big party and since you can walk, I hope you will stand up and greet every person properly when they arrive at the door, otherwise they'll think you're rude and I'll feel uncomfortable and embarrassed by you"? I hope you would never dream of placing such a demand on someone with a physical disability.
A neurological and developmental disorder is not as visible as a physical disability, but it is just as real and can be just as painful. There are certain kinds of information that autistic people simply cannot process very quickly or at all, which means that their mind can easily get overwhelmed by sensory/information overload.
Unfortunately, being different from the norm, whether physically or psychologically, presents a lot of challenges in life. Since you've never had to deal with the kinds of challenges your friend faces, it might be hard for you to understand just how difficult it is to live in a world that not only doesn't accommodate you but actively pressures you to erase yourself. You are very lucky to have the ability to learn and adapt well in social situations. Please recognize that not everyone is equally endowed with this ability at birth.
New situations, by definition, present more unknowns, which makes them more unpredictable. Meeting someone new, in an unexpected time or place, means there's a lot more information to process and keep track of. In the best case scenario, an autistic person can push themselves through a new social situation with certain coping strategies, but it will exhaust them and perhaps ruin their day. In the worst case scenario, they will get overloaded and experience a mental breakdown, which would not only be deeply embarrassing at that moment but could damage their self-esteem in the long term if it happens again and again.
Since there is a lot less information processing to do when interacting with known people in predictable situations, it is quite logical for autistic people to prefer familiar social contexts. If they can feel comfortable, relaxed, and prepared enough, they might even be able to get energized and feel some joy in socializing, which could be a rare occurrence for them. It's possible that you have seriously misunderstood your friend's motivations.
Problem #2: Unreasonable Expectations
You fear the relationship is "one-sided", but that would only be true if the other person were actually quite capable of doing what you requested of them yet still chose not to. She's been trying to tell you that she isn't capable but you don't want to believe it. It seems you are viewing ASD as a psychological problem of "bad choices" or a personal "character flaw", since you still judge her by your own neurotypical standards. If you truly understood ASD, you would see how unreasonable and unfair it is to expect your friend to be like you.
Having unreasonable expectations means you are the primary source of the conflict. The discomfort and embarrassment you feel is yours, generated by you, which means they are your responsibility, and you need to learn to handle them better. Other people bear no responsibility for your feelings unless they have gone out of their way to make you feel a certain way. Is your friend purposely trying to inconvenience you or embarrass you? If not, why do you respond as though being personally attacked? Being NFJ, it's likely that Fe and Ni are playing a significant role in your negative reaction to the existence of someone who doesn't meet your expectations.
For example, due to Fe, it isn't uncommon for FJs to:
believe that similarity/commonality is the backbone of successful relationships, which leads to low tolerance for difference and even approaching differences with skepticism or contempt
believe that "successful" socializing involves everyone following the same social rules and customs, which means feelings of discomfort, embarrassment, or shame are easily triggered in social situations that stray outside the norm
believe that there is something "off" or morally "deviant" about people who don't follow social rules and customs, which leads to boundary violating behaviors that try to change, eliminate, or punish such differences
believe that individuals should downplay, even deny, the things that make them different for the sake of everyone else's comfort
For example, due to Ni, it isn't uncommon for NFJs to:
get stuck with one very narrow point-of-view, which leads to being too close-minded to see, let alone accept individual differences
hold themselves to high standards, which easily morph into unreasonable expectations of others
believe that they know what is "better"/"best" and try to remake the world to match their idealistic (read: unrealistic) vision
Every personality type has its set of common flaws, so it is likely that you have exhibited the above personality flaws unless you've undertaken some serious type development. If these flaws get in the way of your relationships, then you have a choice to make: i) Are you going to address the flaws, which would make you a much more open-minded, adaptable, and compassionate person in all your relationships? Or ii) are you going to decide that it's not worth changing for this one person and that it would be easier to only make friends with neurotypical people from now on?
Your question is about "what to do" in this situation. It's not my place to tell people what to do. I can help you understand the problem and even get to the bottom of it, but the solution should be chosen by you, based on what you believe is best for you.

Pick a card - WTF is going on? 💀
I decided to do this reading for you, because this is THE reading I always wanted to find. Most of the time, I just want to figure out WTF is going on.
This time, there are 5 piles for you to choose from, because I have zero idea what can come out from such a general question. The messages of some piles are more specific than others, so don't force it to fit if you don't feel it's right.
Some of you may come with a question in your mind, and some piles may not be able to give a concrete answer for your question. However, I tried my best to give some advices that can help with your situation in all piles. đŸ™đŸ»
đŸ‘‡đŸ»Please choose a color that you're drawn to! đŸ‘‡đŸ»
Tumblr media
And find the corresponding reading for you below!
Pile 1
You may be in a love or a friendship triangle. If this doesn't fit at all, it may not be your pile. Don't force it to fit if you have 0 suspicions about it 😭
You do not expect such things to happen, as things seems to be fine between you and your person. However, your person has connected with a new person recently, and things seem to be happening quick between them.
You feel super powerless about this situation. You may try to do things that used to work between you and your person, but it seems that it doesn't help to draw their focus back to you. Although you feel like there is nothing you can do anymore to save your relationship, you cannot find the courage to get out of this relationship that brings you more and more frustration. Instead, you hold on to the past memories with your person, and blindly believing that things will return to the past eventually, they will be interested in you again, they will ditch the other person one day, etc...
However, it seems that your person does not want to focus on you anymore. For some reason, they believe that the other person is a better option than you. They think that they vibe better together with the other person, or maybe they just find that the other person is more attractive and more interesting. It may even be possible that their coldness towards you is intentional, so they can get rid of you faster, and move on to the other person. Anyway, it is clear that they are not putting energy in this relationship.
Such situation sucks. You feel more and more powerless everyday. It brings you so much frustration and the negative effect is expanding. However, the knowledge of you are powerless can also be a relief. Relationship that last forever is rare.
Most of the time, the connection we formed will eventually end someday. The right one that your fated to be with, will not miss you, and things will not be this difficult between you two. Instead of holding onto this relationship and spend all your energy to save this relationship (that only you are paying efforts into), you can decide to let go, and still keep the beautiful memory you two made together. This way you can also free yourself from the constant stress that is draining you right now, and regain power and clarity to write a better future for yourself.
(I can't pick one song 💀)
Pile 2
You believe that you are at high value, and are confused by the small or lack of results. However, I am sorry to say that the other party does not think the same way as you, especially if this situation is a romantic one. I am not sure if it's the other party failing to recognize your value, or it's you that have to work on yourself, because value of oneself is a very subjective thing. But I will give you some advice to work on yourself, as it is easier than working on others.
One thing that leads to your frustration is your impatience. You are focusing too much on wanting the thing, now. It seems that most of your energy is invested into figuring why it is not happening now. According to my knowledge in law of attraction, this is the worst way to manifest something, as you are basically telling the universe that you are obsessed with the experience of wanting, with your actions...đŸ˜© You can try focus on improving yourself, or just move onto a next goal. Stop focusing on why this thing is not happening right now.
You may also tying your self worth too tightly to the outcome of this situation. This may be a factor in why you care about this so much. However, as I mentioned before, value of oneself is a very subjective thing. One person failing to recognize your value does not mean that you are worthless. It is completely unrelated. You need to focus on appreciate yourself as you are, believing you are the high value individual whole-heartedly, no matter the outcome of the situation. For example, you are equally beautiful no matter that person like you or not! It's not like being with that person will magically transform your appearance. 😭 Also, trying to figure out why others does not like you will more likely to bring more confusion.
Pile 3
This is a very specific type of situation. You are heavily doubting yourself and the outcome of this relationship, as you don't believe that your person likes you back. You feel that your intuition is yelling at you that your person likes you, but your mind is yelling as loud, if not louder, that there is no way that your person will like you back. Your mind is a total mess right now 😔
One reason for this thought may be that you don't believe that you are worthy. You may be mistreated before, or be told that you are worthless at the past. It may not be your situation, but it doesn't matter, because the past doesn't matter anymore. All you have to know is the past is not the future, and the future is different.
If they are still contacting with you, then just give into the passion, and enjoy the growth of this relationship. Don't do silly things to sabotage this relationship, like ghosting them 💀, just because you don't believe that things is bad. You know it is good, and your intuition is constantly remind you this, even when your mind keep telling you the opposite.
Stop wasting time in thinking, or to be more accurate, making up why you are worthless, and why you don't deserve love. There is nothing to be investigated in such topics, because they are completely false. The healing begins as you start believing in yourself. It's time to walk away from the past, to a brighter future.
Pile 4
It seems that you did something right to manifest something or reach a goal. It seems that your method is on the darker side, can be some tricks or spells, but I won't judge you 😭 You probably here to see if your thing is going to work or not, and the answer is it depends.
The outcome is highly related to how much you believe in yourself. If you did this because of lack, and you are not actually sure if you are worthy of the outcome, or straight up believe that doing the thing you did is the only method that you can get things in life, then it probably won't work. Instead of using such things as a panick button, you need to be more patient and do more work on building your self worth. I believe that it is extremely difficult to manifest things that exceed your worth, even if it works, it comes with a huge cost that probably won't worth it at all.
No matter it works or not, you will probably see the results soon. If you're manifesting a person, that seems to have interest, or even in a relationship with another person, you will observe that your person is starting to question the connection with the other person, and start decide between you and them. If even yourself is doubtful about your worth, how can you persuade your person to think that you are the better option?
Overall, I cannot get a concrete yes or no answer. The outcome situation highly depends on your self esteem and confidence.
Pile 5
I feel a huge sense of despair when channeling the message for this pile. You probably were cut off by someone. It is similar to Pile 1. But the difference is you don't even have the illusion of having an option in your situation, as it seems that things are "finished", probably by the other person, no matter how much you don't want this to happen. 😔
I am very sorry for the pain you are going through right now. You feel that there's nothing you can do in this situation anymore... and you are right. There is little you can do to skip this pain you are suffering now, as it is a normal reaction for people when they go thru such situation. Accept that you are very sad, and it is reasonable to be sad. Also, please take care of yourself. Things will definitely be better in the future. The pain won't last forever. đŸ™đŸ»
Try not to think about how things used to be in the past. Thinking about the past probably won't do much to help the situation, but it will definitely make you feel worse. Focus on the present. Find something to distract your mind from going back to the past. You can try drawing, as it works for me 💀 Actually, just do anything that you feel drawn to. Maybe binge watching YouTube works too for you. đŸ€·đŸ»â€â™€ïž
You may feel stuck right now, but I am sure that you can walk away from the past, and cut ties with this connection in the future. It is just a matter of time.
(Similar to Pile 1, I can't pick one song 💀)

ê•„genshin impactê•„ boyfriend head-canons. Number 2 Liyue boogaloo~
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The first one I did got so much attention like thank you so much, I’d die for you all ^^
No I didn’t put xiao first because I was too excited to write him and no I didn’t get carried away with his scenario. Shut up.
I’m still super busy, I kid you fucking not I’ve been trying to get fired but it isn’t working for some god damn reason and I’ve had like four hours sleep in total since my last request so I apologise if this is completely incoherent, I am rapidly becoming very unhinged <33
This was just for funsies and to keep me sane so I still apologise for not get to any requests at the moment :(
Summary: Just the Liyue boys as your S/O uwu
Warnings: fluff, swearing, established relationship, gn!reader, a little suggestive (childe), not proof-read.
Characters: Xiao, Zhongli, Childe (I know he’s from that Russian place I can’t spell for the life of me but shush).
I really wanted to do baizhu but I just pulled him and I wanna go through his story so I can really get his character traits, I’ll be doing my fruity baby in the future~
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Xiao~
Oh my sweet baby
My boy
The man, the myth :(, the legend~
He’s the reason my standards are too high
Curse his pretty face
Absolutely oblivious before confessing
Everyone around him could tell how different he was around you
But no matter how much they mentioned it he’d just be like
“Adepti have no need for such feelings, you mortals have such foolish ideas and no respect”
Meanwhile he’s trying his best to stomach the cake you made him just because you made it for him
At first he genuinely thought you were kinda annoying lmao
Always being so nice to him and wouldn’t leave him alone
Only when you went away to Inazuma did he realise how much he grew accustomed to your strange daily rituals of bringing him qingxings that you picked yourself just to follow him around like a puppy
I actually don’t think he’d appreciate being given too much almond tofu
Even though he likes it better than any other food can you imagine being fed the same thing everyday non stop :/
Proceeded to ask his dad Zhongli for advice
He doesn’t understand why he feels all weird and tingly
Genuinely thinks it’s his karmic debt
Zhongli proceeds to be a shit and tell’s him to “find out on his own” for some kind of moral lesson or something idfk
When he accidentally brings it up with Goldet, things get fun
Well not really for him but for everyone else’s entertainment, yes
Even with exTREME reluctance he somehow gets roped into “how to express emotions 101” lessons
Has to practice having a full conversation with a scarecrow that Goldet ever so kindly dragged in for him :)
Embarrassed, Humiliated, overwhelmed
And yet still he persists for reasons unbeknownst to him
It isn’t until he overhears some rumours about a show down between the electro archon and a mortal that he realises he might like like you
That and the constant teasing and encouragement from Zhongli and Goldet
Boys distraught
First of all he can’t have feelings for someone
He’s just going to hurt you!
He has a duty to uphold!
Only after brooding to himself for a few days does he accept it
Take it slow with him please, he may be a demon killing yaksha but he’s so scared and paranoid
Red flags? Nah we colour blind here
When you get back from Inazuma it’s very clear that your patience is thin and energy being nonexistent
Fuck you tsurimi island I hope you burn
So seeing when returning to Wangsheng Inn to find the one person you’d be holding out to see after so long, not there and a letter left to you telling you to head to the top of gingyun peak
You were not happy to say the least
Thought it was another commission and almost didn’t go
Curiosity got the better tho and that’s where he awkwardly gave you his own qingxing flowers and a amusingly bad attempt at making your favourite food
Tries to hide how red he is
Seeing you cloaked in the moonlight, leaves and fireflies framing your pretty face~
Boys a mess~
He doesn’t even have to say anything, you just pull him in for a hug and after the initial shock of it he decides then and there that you’re now bound together <3
Rarely openly admits he loves you
Too scary
At least for the moment
He is a bird
So you know what that means?
Bird behaviour goobery activated~
Brings you flowers, pebbles, crystals and anything “pretty” he comes across during his day
Pda is a no unless you want him teleporting away and pouting for a good 48 hours because he got flustered
When you’re alone though he’s more open
Hand holding, forehead kisses, sometimes even cuddling if the planets align and his karma isn’t bothering him as much that day!
He’s so touch starved he just needs to get used to affection ;-;
Stalks you romantically
He just wants to keep you safe, he’s lost so much and gone through unimaginable pain
It took some time for him to be ok with you being so close to him since he’s scared of his karmic debt hurting you
Gets super red when talking about you~
“Hm? Y/N? Well they’re..um..very important to me I suppose”
Poof. he’s suddenly “needed” somewhere else
Even if it doesn’t seem like he cares too much I can assure you that he treasures you
You’ve given his life filled with pain and loss so much meaning and even though he’s bad with expressing his emotions he’ll always find some way to make sure you know how special you are to him <3
I don’t think he’d use much pet names
Either calls you by your first name/Qingxing/sweetheart/love.
Tumblr media
Zhongli~
Mmm fancy gentleman
British but if British people weren’t a mistake
Sighs in being British
He’s such a gentle dude ;-;
Always pulling chairs out for you or kissing your hand while holding a door open
Don’t be mistaken though
He’s an absolute smug little shit
He just hides it very well
Teases you in the most unholy of ways only to look at you with confused innocent eyes
Impossible to be mad at istg
Sliced fruit dadâ„ąïž
Teaches you how to traditionally make tea after he noticed you using tea bags
Genuinely mortified him
Likes to take you on walks around Liyue and tells you stories from his life as a archon
Speaking of which I’m 100% sure he was completely unhinged when he was younger
When he first realised he was falling for you he was the sweetest person
He’d take time to somehow “accidentally” cross paths with you and just so happened to be there if you needed help
Brings you the prettiest bouquets of flowers all personally arranged by him
He has experience to a certain degree
We all know the back story and if you don’t I’m not spoiling uwu
When he decided he had dragged it on for long enough he decided to finally confess
Surprisingly nervous
Man had to keep adjusting his collar and tie and absolutely wasn’t sweating just a little
Made casual conversation while walking with you to that big crystal tree where he kept his traumatised dog
Held both of your hands right as the sun spilled golden sunlight across the mountains and probably end up cupping your cheek with the softest smile ;-;
“I have witnessed many beauties in my time but the warmth of your smile truly is the most awe inspiring sight I ever have and ever will lay eyes upon”
Xiao gets so tired of hearing him brag about you
Even Hu Tao is wearing thin 💀
Doesn’t get jealous
He knows he has nothing to worry about between his trust for you and his not very subtle ego
Tries to be better at earning and holding money just because he wants to treat you!
Doesn’t want to give Childe the luxury of knowing his money is the cause of your happiness
Not that it necessarily is anyway
It’s just the experience of seeing how your face lights up when you try that really expensive food you always wanted or find that adorable plush you’d been eyeing up, on your bed
But of course that being said it’s truly the small things you both enjoy the most
The walks and stories
Teaching him how to be more accustomed to mortal life
He loves to hold your hands or pet your head!
Also loved it when you randomly peck his cheek or nose when he’s being adorably oblivious
Good luck to anyone who tries to hurt you btw
Man will summon his pillar so far up their ass they’d legally be a lollipop
That’s a threat I swear
If you come home hurt he’ll immediately roll his sleeve up and grab the first aid
Probably scolding you for not being careful enough but he really can’t keep the act up for long
He’s just worried ;-;
He’s lived for so long
You don’t even begin to understand how much he adores and admires you for bringing excitement and warmth back to his life~
Pet names are darling/dear/love/sweetheart/jewel.
Tumblr media
Childe~
Someone slap him please
I love him but good god
Clingyâ„ąïž
I know deep down he’s a really nice boy and very soft very caring yes very nice 10/10 boyfriend
But you need to housetrain him
Dead ass would sit on the couch covered in blood and put his feet on the coffee table and get so confused to why you were mad 💀
Do not flirt back
Don’t even attempt it
Not unless you want to encourage him and make it 20x worse
You will nEVER live it down
Is actually very sweet though, if not a little dumb sometimes
Immediately knew he liked you the second you met
How did he go about showing he liked you?
Pestering you constantly
Buys you lots of things too
Have to literally threaten him to stop
Which ofc turns him on hardly works
There’s really no winning with him
That is until you realise you can bring the mighty Tartaglia, 11th of the Fatui Harbingers to his knees by just kissing his cheek or holding his hand
He’s so immune to his own teasing that he forgot to consider that affection is a pretty good way to get people to warm up to you
Jealous boy
Well sort of
He trusts you but he gets easily insecure under his cronchy ego front
Casually talks about the most fucked up shit and then laugh it off
Indirectly asked Zhongli for help confessing
Reluctantly Zhongli finds out your favourite food/hobbies/Ect.
Yeah help him but not Xiao, betrayer
I’m not getting salty at my own headcanons shut up
When he invited you to dinner, you already knew why
He’s not subtle
Quiet is the last thing he can do well without cracking up every now and then
Either that or it was the candlelit table surrounded by roses that had been set up for you near the harbour and a very nervous ginger waiting for you with the biggest, goofiest grin imaginable
He’d be on his very best behaviour ;)
Stares at you in the candlelight before you ask him what’s up in hopes to make the tension a little less overwhelming
“I have won countless battles but none have meant quite as much to me as winning your heart does”
Congrats on become Liyues new power couple
He’d be lying if he didn’t feel at least a little smug seeing people gawk at you both
You’re so pretty together, how can they not?
Some dude tried to hit on you one time while he was drunk
Somehow Dottore magically ended up with a new play thing
When he introduced you to his family he was so happy!!
Tonia, Teucer, and Anthon all adore you!!
He does get a little jealous though when you play house with Teucer and you tease him by purposefully refusing to be his spouse
Good job keeping that act up for too long
Has absolutely sent piles of letters to his family telling them all about you!
His parents probably know pretty much everything there is by now
Though if you have boundaries he’ll respect them :)
He loves to show his affection to you no matter where you are!
Teasing kisses, hand holding, hugging
He’ll often barge into your room and plop his head down on your lap just so you can play with his hair while he talks~
If you fall asleep then he’ll wrap you all up and cuddle you uwu
Had to decide if he should tell you about his occupation
He was so scared that you’d leave him or become scared ;-;
Sure, you and the fatui aren’t exactly on close terms but it’s different with him
When you asked to have some time to think he was terrified
Please give him hugs and reassure him when you return
He’s even seemed to calm down a little since you got together
Of course he’s still a battle crazed maniac that gets hard just off the thought of being challenged
But he’s devoting more of his time to cherishing you and spending time together <3
Gets so excited when you ask to spar him
Does the whole thing where he’ll stand behind you while he shows you how to hold his bow
All steamy and shit
Elbow him
You also have to admit his status has its plus points
You never have to worry about being in danger while on commissions or having enough mora to survive
Romantic idiots 3.0
Though you’re probably a little less unhinged
Probably not by much if you’re dating him tho~
When you’re tired or don’t have the time to deal with his neediness he’ll go full pout mode
All whiny and touchy
Give him a head pat and a kiss that lasts maybe a little longer than it should and he’ll satisfied
Expect for the times he carries you back home to enjoy your attention a little more~
Honestly a 50/50
He always makes sure to tell you how much he loves you and how much happier you’ve made his life~
If you look close enough you might even see a slight sparkle in his deep blue eyes that never used to be there <3
Pet names areeee: cutie/babe/baby/honey/droplet/spark/love
Tumblr media
I know xiaos was long enough to be it’s own post but let me have my silly little obsession with my silly little traumatised men!
