saetoru is talking abt you on her private blog (@/clorindes) yuckkkkk
CW BULLYING, LITERALLY IMMATURE HIGH SCHOOL DRAMA, SUB POSTING.
hi nonnie, thank you for letting me know! since iām leaving this blog & this platform for the foreseeable future i figured i might aswell get a few things off of my chest before i go. i apologise in advance for the vibes this post will probably bring, the discourse & the posts that will ofcourse follow, but i honestly i am not the first person to be targeted by this creator and iām sure i wonāt be the last considering the amount of creators that have been bullied off of this app by them.
first off iāve had multiple blogs that would be considered bigger blogs such as @/hvnlydmn, @/atsymu + now this blog which is the biggest of all 3. i think thereās a sort of unspoken responsibility that comes with being a bigger blog which i know is no fun but itās also because it can be super harmful on a site like this, when people weaponise their following.
on that note iāll start this post by saying that iāve known tee for probably around 3/4 years, maybe? we were mutuals on hvnlydmn & atsymu and we continued to talk on discord even when i was off of tumblr. i will honestly admit to this day i have never had a negative interaction with tee to my face and she was genuinely supportive of me during any discourse i was involved in. i am not some angel, iāve had my fair share of crap on this app (of my own doing) but this post is not meant to come across like āoh she doesnāt like me so iām calling her outā no. im sorry if this doesnāt line up with my brand and my āvictim complexā but iām not gonna lie down and let someone on a power trip on a hobby app drag me through the mud.
first off i had began to get some off vibes from tee when i had started writing on garoujo, notably when iād just hit my first milestone which was probably around 1k. during this i had decided to move my instagram theme from my main blog to my writing blog.
iād noticed tee subposting (on main and on her personal blog which i followed at the time) about someone basically using the same theme as her, which after then clicking onto her blog i realised was an instagram theme. i didnāt think much of it, again me & tee were friends and she hadnāt came to me directly so ignored it. i was still a new blog and trying to solidly an aesthetic (before the beige lol) so i changed my theme / masterlists / layouts a lot.
a few more sub posts later i decided to message tee about it because with every thing iād change / post on my blog, there always seemed to be another post. so i messaged her and got this response in: (iāve blurred out my irl name btw) open up pics for convo!
so i let it slide, kept posting & that was that. probably a few days / a week later, tee had soft blocked me which then eventually led to me being hard blocked. i was upset ofcourse because i genuinely considered tee a good friend but iāve always been a big advocate in controlling your space.
this was when, one of our mutuals in common (the first of many may i add) approached me on discord to say that just like now, i was being ripped to shreds on teeās personal blog:
again i was notably upset about this because i was being accused of not only copying her theme but also her writing & masterlists, we did have a lot of mutuals in common so it was also upsetting knowing they would all be seeing these posts aswell. i allowed myself one sub post about ācreating a narrativeā because i was particularly frustrated but tee then also subposted about this, even though she had me blocked?
i would also like to say regarding our mutuals in common that this was not the first or last mutual to approach me regarding tee. iāve had multiple people tell me that ātheyāre only mutuals with her because it would be more damaging not to beā āitās easier to be on her sideā. also i am not saying this is okay but iāve had multiple of her current mutuals send me not only her posts, but screenshots of her private, personal instagram & also tell me about how all of them and their friends had a running joke / theory that tee made up her boyfriend (ex-boyfriend?) for attention.
regarding the accusations from tee iād like to first comment on the instagram themes, again i had done an instagram theme on my main blog but it seemed to only be an issue when it was on my writing blog that was gaining traction. if the timing was off and it seemed like i copied her, i genuinely have nothing to say except itās not the caseā itās instagram (which tee already admits she doesnāt own above) also the hanma writing? iām still not 100% sure which drabbles she was referring to but i can only assume that 1. is when i posted a drabble about hanma fucking you outside of his subordinates house ā this was a almost completely word by word rewrite of a suna drabble i done on my old blog @/atsymu i literally just changed the concept to fit tokyo revengers themes. i can post screenshots of this suna drabble also from my google docs dated February when i deactivated. the other one may have been some basic concept about him fucking you against the window.
she also mentions in the very first recent screenshot at the beginning of this post that i have apparently stolen concepts of fics / posts from her mutuals. what i want to say regarding this is, do you believe that i would have made it this far on stolen work? i donāt know any of the mutuals sheās referring to apart from 1 which iāll get into. but every single accusation iāve ever received has always come from someone associated or in contact with tee, she has always been at the root of it all but i have yet to receive a single anon or ask about me copying or taking inspiration from anyoneās work.
i know there was apparently a blog and an ex mutual of mine, who i had a lot of respect & time for who was under the impression iād stolen their concept for this gojo fic. the whole premise of this fic is honestly not uncommon considering how many times people losing control of their techniques / powers / quirks during orgasm has been done in fanfiction. this concept was completely my own, i had originally posted shitposts about him losing control of his technique & also him putting you into a mating press / breeding before iād decided to smoosh them together into a fic. we all read from the same workbook, we all have the same material to work off of ā two people in a fanbase of THOUSANDS having a similar idea is not unheard of.
now onto the masterlist banners. the screenshot on the far left are the comparison photos that tee made herselfā iām sure youāll be able to see them in better quality when she makes her own post about it; because obviously thatās going to come. first off i will say, i will admit i took inspiration from her official art masterlist banners ā i thought hers looked good and i needed a masterlist so i used official art. fair game there although i only kept them for a few days before i changed again.
but onto the grey masterlist banners, i can honestly say i did not even know tee had this masterlist, also the only comparison i myself see is the colour. the only reason i chose grey was because i had started to use a grey / white overlay on my manga panels for my layout (as you can see far right), and as you knowā iāve always kept my colour scheme pretty consistent. on that note, regarding the actual layout of the masterlistsā iāve added screenshots from atsymu (that i could find due to it being deactivated) that shows the layout of my old masterlists, which was what i took inspiration from for my current. although the title font for each heading like headcanons is different, i had used the sort of old style, basic font that everyone uses before i had deactivated so it would match my fic headers i just donāt have photos obviously.
anyway on the back of this there was then discourse over me apparently copying teeās kinktober masterlist, which again was not the case. but again due to teeās following i had received multiple death threats into my asks the morning after i posted mine. as far as i was aware, the only similarities were the fact we both used gifs in our headers & the layout listing thirsts, hcs & fics (which is very common during kinktober but i admitted below i could see that similarity). unfortunately during all of this discourse was when ffflowers, my hate blog also came into the mix which then lead to tee reaching out to me in dmās from her old blog.
the interaction between me & tee was pretty good, again she was nothing but nice to me directly despite the way she obviously spoke about me in private above. but as you can see below, tee herself told me that basically most of the similarities all made above were brushed off as basic. we spoke about the ig themes & i apologised, saying i could understand where she was coming from and that was that. i unblocked her & she unblocked me so i could reblog her post, itās been that way since.
it is not my place to comment on other peopleās experiences on this app but i would need more than 2 hands to list the amount of people that iām sure have had similar if not worse experiences with tee. i know i have had multiple mutuals who have been bullied off of this platform & had their safe space ripped from them for little things such as: liking a character that this group selfship with, tee and her friends not liking their characterisation. theyāve even went as far as to go through other larger creators notes to check for minors so they can make excuses as to why theyāre thriving.
i also know of a blog who was āblacklistedā from tee & her mutuals as they self shipped with arataki itto at the time, one of teeās friends also did, so they blacklisted this creator and had all of their mutuals block them for this which then in turn drove this creator off the app. there has been other notably bitchy things that iāve heard but i have no receipts for therefore i donāt see any relevance in starting rumours.
i would also like to say i know plagiarism is a horrible thing, we have all been through itā myself included but itās got to the point where being accused of copying tee has become a canon event. notably, bigger platforms have been ruined and driven off of this app for little things such as mdni dividers, similar colours schemes etc. and itās the reason iām also leaving.
i will say i have met some amazing people through my discourse with tee, notably people who have been in similar situations and i also apologise to any mutuals who we still have in common who are now sort of stuck inbetween. no hard feelings. although to tee: id be careful of the people you trust because it seems the loyalties they have to you are not as sincere as you may believe. you can also go to her personal & read the other things she was saying about me like how she was always so ? at how many people seemed to like me.
so thatās all i have to say, iām sure dash will get a few responses from this but iāll be logging out & turning off asks because honestly? couldnt care less. the only thing iād change about my experience on this app would be i wish iād blocked tee sooner.
iād say have a nice day, but instead, have the day you deserve.
ā emmie :)
#i apologise in advance to my mutuals & the innocents#i probably had more to say but yk i was rambling atp#anyways see u guys š¤ love most of u !

smth i hate abt hori is how easy it wouldāve been to use the lov to show how hero society lets people slip through the cracks as a result creates villains, but he never fully expands on the idea.
jinās parents died when he was in *middle school* MIDDLE SCHOOL! which means he couldāve been anywhere between 12-14. and then because of a motorcycle accident that *wasnāt his fault* he got a criminal record, was fired from his job, and became homeless. and then he just spiraled from there.
toga is biologically wired be to fascinated and obsessed with blood. but instead of helping her, her parents are disgusted by her and force her to suppress herself until she inevitably snaps.
dabi is a product of his fathers abuse and it was allowed to go on for decades because his father is a famous pro hero
compress is just an unapologetic evil bastard tho and i love him for that
This is also one of my problems with horis writing!!! Villains in MHA all had wasted potential and I absolutely hated the way their arcs went!
I guess the only arc that I can semi agree on is toga himiko's arc to a certain extent but that even has wasted potential that I talk about down below š. I discuss what togas arc could of been and different directions her character could of went.
In my opinion himiko was already introduced as somewhat irredeemable. The first time we see her we are told that she killed 6 people known so far and on around 5 of them she performed blood letting. Also her first victim she literally sliced him up and started drinking his blood (some including I theorise that she maybe even ate some of his body parts). I think it adds to the story simply because togas love or idea of love is based on her becoming that person and having parts of them on her whether that be literal or metaphorical.
I personally like the idea that toga is an irredeemable victim. Toga is someone who was failed by the system and had went through a lot for sure but the actions she did were also things that she should be accounted for ( I talk more about toga and what makes her different from lady nagant in another post). In the end I personally enjoy seeing toga be a humanised not redeemed victim of society that has also commited many crimes.
When it comes to other members of the league I feel like they could of all had better arcs in general.
I remember talking to @doodlegirl1998 and she suggested that twice and togas characters could of very much switched roles as twice is a character who parallels more with ochako (both struggling financially) and hawks would get more repercussions for killing a child (toga). However, I also do like twices death but I do have some problems like how I wish his death would of been thoroughly explored and we see how it impacted everyone or we should of gotten more from twice himself in general.
Dabi deserved better and I really would of wanted him to have a redemption arc, receive some concequences but end up with the todoroki family WITH ENJI DEAD (I HATE HIM!). I hated the whole Dabi always had an ice quirk and that he was just the second choice, always the second choice all along.
Shigaraki and just how much AFO was involved ruined everything for me also Shigaraki knowing about AFO was a horrible twist which made shigarakis characterisation even more inconsistent. I would of liked to see a Shigaraki redemption where he himself works towards one by starting to question AFO and get into the leader role a whole lot more while using the MVA to his advantage to get information, resources and more.
Spinner could of ended up being the better stain and learned form stains mistakes while also changing with shigaraki. I also feel like he needed more build up with his own counterpart like shoji and a thorough explanation and development of the whole hetamorphis discrimination thing.
Compress was evil for fun and it's fun to have those types of characters. One thing that I really would of liked to explore is compress's and magne's interactions. I feel like their arcs could of been interwoven (maybe I ship them a little who knows š¤·āāļø) magne's death should of had more substance to it and all it just felt lacking and compress's disappearance the same.
Now when it comes to minor villains Iam a huge advocate for MUSTARD!! AND GIVING US A MUSTARD REDEMPTION ššš
I also think that muscular and moonfish should of obviously went to prison but that this could of been used as a way to shake the leagues trust for shigaraki. If any of the league members were to end up in jail would shigaraki help them? Maybe he won't as he didn't do that to muscular or moonfish or maybe he has stated to care for them more and he would as he is growing into that leadership role.
I would have it so that the Dr garaki is just an evil menace who starts to become much more greedy and manic causing AFO's death and going insane.
Kurogiri or kurooboro in this case would go through a different type arc that's down below.
In the end all of the villain characters or characters that don't up hold the status quo are victims of society. I think your ask could also apply to the hero characters that are also harmed by the system like hawks and izuku.

so um, youāve probably have been asked this many times but how do you start writing fanfic without cringing at yourself? i already feel silly for reading it. i noticed you have gained recognition outside of tumblr which i believe to be an achievement but i canāt allow myself to go through that.
i work in the finance sector at a big american firm, i canāt have my coworkers knowing iām writing fanfic. i already get teased for watching disney animated films (which itās not that bad) how do you deal with this? ik youāre still at college and ofc, this doesnāt mean youāre stupid but i bet you know what i mean? do you have some advice on this?
ā ļøme not shutting the fuck up and getting way too personal below the cut
honestly at first i DID cringe at myself. i cringed so much that after posting my first fic in like november i dont think i posted again til january because i was writing and would just get so humiliated despite being alone and no one knowing who i was or what i was doing LOL but honestly the way i got over that was just to do it more because i truly love writing and why would i let feeling ācringeā stop me from doing something i love and that makes me happy? that would be so heartbreaking, life is hard enough, we deserve to do things we love and are passionate about without judging ourselves so harshly
as for not letting other people know well yeah i just donāt tell my friends or anyone ik in real life that i write fanfic lol, they know i love to write and they know im obsessed with spencer reid but thatās as much as iāve told them! i know itās a thing that maybe most people would consider āweirdā but as someone who has a crushing fear of intimacy this is kinda my outlet lmfao. and it made me feel really insecure and weird at first but then i realized likeā¦ i try to be kind and caring and thoughtful, i have a lot of good qualities and the fact that i write fanfic doesnāt actually detract from any of them. it also helped for me to accept the reason why i write fanfic which is (and weāre abt to get real personal) iām deeply afraid of intimacy of any kind and always have been so writing fiction abt the stuff iām too scared to do isnāt a bad thing. there are a lot of people who wouldnāt understand it but they donāt have the same experiences as me and i donāt need them to understand it because i know that they never could. like they donāt understand what itās like to so terrified of being known by another person that you obsess over the hottest guy in your school district for six months bc you want the validation of him liking you back and you do everything in your power to make him like you and then when he actually does reciprocate you immediately start icing him out to the point where he says hi at a party and you ignore him to his face cause youāre so afraid of menššššš they donāt get those vibes!!!
anyway basically you just have to remember that youāre doing it for you and it actually doesnāt mean something is WRONG with you if you enjoy writing and the safety and control that fiction offers you. it just means youāre one of billions of people living an entirely unique experience, just like anyone else, and honestly i think it makes you interesting. having hobbies and passions is rlly sexy and cool, regardless of what they are, and you deserve to do stuff you like doing. if anyone else is giving you shit abt it itās probably because they genuinely donāt understand what itās like to have interests and that makes me feel bad for them lol

BEFORE YOU CONTINUE
Mine contains sensitive topics such as, stalking, kidnapping, murdering, workplace abuse, abuse, and swearing. DO NOT continue if these topics may trigger you.
Mine is a yandere visual novel
It was just another day at work, your two coworkers slacking off and you having to work twice as hard where they fail. However, as the day went on you kept feeling like you were being watched. Deciding not to go home just in case you were being followed, you head down to the docks where the local fisherman spot is, looking for some place of safety.
FAQ
If I make "Mine" content, can I tag you in it?- Yup! I would LOVE to be tagged in any fan content! It makes me so happy and overjoyed to see people making stuff for Mine. I'm happy that others are interested in my stories and characters.
Are we allowed to send asks interacting with the Li's? - Yeah! I think it would also help me write the characters better for when I write their routes.
CHARACTERS
Minato: The friendly fisherman! He can be seen running errands for his grandparents and helping anyone who needs it. He struggles to let people past arms length and therefore doesn't have any friends, maybe you can be that for him or more.
Haruto: Your childhood friend. Youāve been together forever! Throughout elementary, middle, high school, and even college he never left your side. He would kill for you, not that he'd ever let you know if he did or...has. You'd never expect anything like that from your sweet childhood friend anyways.
Jun: Your best friends younger brother. Heās fashionable and dramatic and all your interactions with him are fun despite being exhausting. Sheās admired you for so long, when will you notice her too??
Hoshi: Habikiās younger twin brother and your coworker. He often slacks off at work but can get away with it since heās the owners son. They wish you would let loose and have some fun too!
Habiki: Hoshiās older twin brother. Unlike his younger brother, Habiki slacks off less, not that heās any more pleasant to be around. Still theyāll help you if they feel like it.
Kage: A timid introvert that would rather watch you from within the shadows. Heās Harutoās younger brother and met you through him. They were infatuated with you the more they interacted and watched you.
Kei: Smart and calculative, Kei strives to find out the most about you and his enemies through the power of hacking. Heās known you since highschool, do you remember him as well as he remembers you?
Yani: They love you! He loves you so much that he would change anything about himself! She wants you to be happy, and sheāll do anything to make sure that you are happy. It canāt wait to meet youš
Aki: Another one of your childhood best friends. You met Aki in elementary school on your first day and you two have been by each others sides since. She really values your friendship and helps you through out this whole yandere situation. (DLC character)

Soā¦ what do yāall do when you wanna do a bajillion things but you canāt settle on which thing to do so you just kind of end up doing nothing?
ā¦ lissen Iām still only recently diagnosed with adhd so I still donāt know how to work with itā¦ I wanna draw so many things, wanna make merch, comics, I wanna write a fuckton of silly cringe fanficsā¦ I wanna make videos? Like maybe youtube videos rambling abt stuff while drawing but then I donāt know if anyone would even be interested in that, and besides I havenāt done video editing inā¦. Probably close to 20years? What program should I use? Anyone got any tips on that?
I also wanna make stuff, lil bead things like these guys I made a while ago for example
I also wanna try doll customization cause itās kinda only been the last decade or so where Iāve allowed myself to like dollsā¦ reasons for that being ā¦ uhā¦ gender stuffā¦ itās like only now in my life, around 30 have I finally gotten somewhat close to getting a grasp on my gender and sexuality, and I never even really realized before that this was something I had a problem with? Which probably makes no sense tbhā¦
I also wanna do sculpting and even paint, after art school teachers made me feel like I should never paint again bcs idk man I wasnāt up to their standards š¤·
Andā¦ I wanna do all this stuff but not only does brain say āadhd my guyā but thereās also my increasing health issues thatā¦ I mean Iāve always had them but I guess getting older makes it harder and harder to constantly deal with themā¦ and thatās another thing I never really realized was so bad until back when I was in Japan in 2015-2016 as an exchange student and would have to go to the hospital increasingly often bcs of pain nobody could diagnoseā¦ aand then I was shamed for it bcs having to go to the hospital in the middle of the night sometimes was a huge hassle to the dorm staff, idk I was a problemā¦
Since then Iāve had two operations and will probably need to have more in the future. Also, amusingly, when I finally got diagnosed I was looking at the list of symptoms, all of which I could relate to in at least some way, but the ones that stood out, for some reason, were āconstant exhaustionā and then below it was āinsomniaā andā¦ maybe Iām not actually lazy when Iām tired all the time? But yāknow, I donāt really wanna use a chronic condition as an excuse to just do nothing, plenty of ppl have chronic problems but still do stuff with their lifeā¦ but when I think like that I also remember this isnāt a āpain competitionā or something like that and different people just have different capabilities to deal with chronic pain and suchā¦ idk, I honestly think Iām still trying to come to terms with the realization that being exhausted and in pain all the time probably counts as some kind of disabilityā¦.. but I donāt feel like Iām allowed to say Iām disabled bcs I do also have good days, you know? I should probably try harder to just DO things?
Ahem, itās like 9AM and I havenāt been able to sleep and stuff hurtsā¦ I just wanna go do something productive but instead Iām whining on here which I probably shouldnāt do bcs this is the internet and strangers can see what you post and maybe use it against you but also sometimes you just really wanna rant into the voidā¦ or maybe more like semi-void cause idk, maybe someone reads this and can relate or give advice or just talk or something? Buuut you suck at talkingā¦ then later you feel embarrassed about your tired rambles and probably end up deleting them and just bring them up in therapy later like you shouldā¦
Anyway, until this embarrassment pops up Iām probably gonna try to find some painkillers and go draw or something -3-

Literally going on and on on someone elseās post bc they responded to you? And acting like thereās nothing socially inappropriate about your response because youāre āallowed to respondā since itās public.. it doesnāt matter that youāre not angry or youāre ājust a chatterboxā the fact that you genuinely cannot control yourself and let the topic go is the issue. The fact that youāre making it ops problem and deciding that theyāre the ones who need to stop responding on their own post because you are incapable of not making a big deal about their original response of āyou donāt know these pplā which was somehow an āoverreactionā despite being a calm, one line statement in response to your weird comment where you were making a weird comment abt a celebrity relationship again on THEIR post like..
Oh, hi! Decided to abandon your veneer of righteous and pose as an 'anonymous 3rd-party' that's on your own side? Maybe actually change up how you write next time you try this?
What happened to me supposedly being the one Big Angy and you the one who's championing the honor of a pair of celebrities that don't give two shits about us? I'm not the one sending anon hate, bro. At this point, I'm laughing at you, too.
You're going on about being socially appropriate here, and yet you're the one literally sending me mail to scold me for *checks notes* talking to someone who is responding back to me within a public forum. As I said, and as you willfully ignore, if you don't want people commenting things you don't want to hear, restrict who can reply to your posts. It's literally a setting that's available.
And not like you tagged it 'do not reblog' or 'do not comment', so what great dignity of a Spongebob and Ariana Grande post was I suppose to intuitively know to give the greatest respects to?
You've been repeating weird during this entire affair like it's some deathly insult and unrecoverable faux-pas. At this point I have to wonder if you've been living your entire life up until now deathly afraid of being perceived as anything but normal. Do you realize THAT is not normal? That the weight you think being called 'weird' has is abnormal? That you think being unafraid to just be stupid freely sometimes is what's 'socially inappropriate' in this setting?
Do you think that it's normal that you want someone to be stricken by being called strange so much to the point that you would pretend to be someone else and send another 'hit'? You consider that normal?
Maybe it's you that should go touch grass. I don't know what the weather's like where you live, or if there's any decent greenery around, but try finding some rather than attempting these primary school bullying tactics. As for me, I'll just keep fucking around on this blogging site saying whatever comes to mind.

u r carrying the nct ficdom here thank u for ur service but i need to know how you manage to pop out new fics every 5 business days
aww thank you im happy u think so š«¶ while i am insanely proud of my output this yr (once i post flopstar & ghost!jisung pt2, that'll bring my wc for this yr to over 360k, which is over 100k more than my wc last yr!!), i think part of the ~illusion~ is that i tend to finish several of my wips at once (or at least very close together, like i just did with finders keepers, flopstar & cross my heart). this is bc i have lots of wips going at once instead of writing one story start to finish before moving on to the next. so i'll have different wips of varying lengths that i bounce around between, which allows me to be engaged bc theyre all at different parts, all different genres, different couple dynamics, and different pacing. so i'll have a couple wips that i sit on and develop for a long time (maybe a year or more), one that i blast through in like a week, and another thats a more reasonable month or so. then when i finish one, that rush often gives me the push i need to finish up another, and sometimes another too! i never let myself feel guilty abt "abandoning" one wip to work on a different one (or even start a new one), bc i know i cant force my brain to do smth it doesnt want to do, and i'll eventually come back to it if its an idea i truly love and want to work with. while i call my fics/aus my babies, and i am very proud of them, i don't feel any obligation to finish them if its not fun anymore
also what has helped this yr is that my workload has finally eased up since they hired another member for my team, and my boss is getting ready to (semi)retire at the end of the year, so i've had a lot of time to write at work too. next year my workload should be increasing again, but im done with school now so i'll have plenty of time to write outside of work (except i'll be moving at some point in may-ish...)
unfortunately right now, im somewhere that i havent been since i came back from my 2022 hiatus, which is that i have no active wips at all. not even any rlly strong ideas š
i finished all of my wips and im just sort of pinging between some ideas i have in my ideas doc and fiddling with some stuff but nothing's stuck yet. i know it will eventually, but for now im all out of wips, which is sooo crazy to me!!!

Ā»Ā»āāāā-ćā
ćāāāā-Ā«Ā«
You started as an intern. A beaming smile on your lips most days, always happy to be in the studio with Mic when he was teaching you the ins and outs of radio hosting.
You'd majored in music business, the end goal in mind of writing and releasing your own music, though most of your plans had fallen through, the only opportunity to get you back on your feet after college being this deal you couldn't pass up.
Co-hosting with Present Mic on his own radio show.
The offer had actually been given to you by one of your superiors at the studio you worked at, having seen your optimism when it came to writing music and your love of music in general.
They wished you good luck and would always welcome you back if things didn't go so well. But you kept your head up high and marched into that studio ready to take on the world alongside the loud blonde.
And down the line, three years later, you were surprised to say the least.
"Your coffee as usual." Hizashi sets down the patriotic blue U.A. thermos sent out to the teachers at the beginning of the year. Since you'd practically moved in 'unofficially' with Mic, unofficially because you weren't technically allowed to stay due to the fact you didn't work for the school, rather employed by Mic himself in his private studio, but you were the tiny exception since you did technically work in the school.
"Thanks! Hey, I was wondering if you could check this new thing I've been working on and give me some criticism, it's just a rough draft, the lyrics just kind of came to me after a shot or two at Vlad's birthday party the other night." You giggled as you tossed him the flash drive containing your latest project, the sensitive information contained on the tiny disc landing in the palm of your boyfriend's hands.
"Another song? You're blessing my ears so early in the morning. I'm dreaming! Pinch me!" He teases. Mic's been the biggest supporter of your music since he overheard the pipes you had.
You'd had that kind of night the second week of your internship, battling the oncoming hangover after drinking with your cool new pro-hero teacher friends, your thoughts turning to lyrics as you worked in the studio, the only light being the small lamp on the side Mic kept when he worked late too.
He'd forgotten his room keys in the studio again, something you realized he did often and as he stopped by to pick them back up, that's when he heard you. You sounded so angelic, almost as if you were some sort of angel.
At first, he thought maybe it was just a recording or some sort of dare he say, Melodyne filter while you were messing around in the mic at night.
But you weren't. Your authentic voice shell-shocked him, and he sort of listened to you the entire night until you nearly pissed your pants turning around and seeing him.
āYeah, itās nothing special really-ā Youāre back to reality as Mic quickly has his headphones over his ears, a large grin on his lips as he listens, his fingers tapping away to the beat already.
You work on other tasks, filtering through requests and putting them in the queue while Mic listens to your song, his heart pounding. You were so talented and heād wish youād give yourself a bit more credit. You have what it takes to make it big, and heād support you every step of the way.
āYou know with this and the other tracks you have, youād have enough to push out an EP. All you need is a bit of marketing and producing, and Iād be more than willing to help!ā Mic smiles, wheeling over to you, pressing an encouraging peck to your cheek.
āIt sounds great, but who would wanna listen to what I write?ā You giggle, toggling an advertisement as you glance over at the blonde.
āHow about this, You let me help you, Iāll spread the trial around here at work and if it gets good reviews, we publish.ā Hizashi is nothing short of persuasive, and for the rest of the week he has you in his studio, adding layer after layer, fine-tuning and weeding out bits of the collection of songs youād written until you have an EP.
Long nights fueled by coffee, water, and tea, and takeout eventually land you with the very first copy of your own EP.Ā
In your hands, itās palpable. Itās real. It doesnāt have any cover art, or a title, let alone who sang it, but Mic hands you a sharpie and you feel this fire coursing through your veins.
You feel more than accomplished.
You scribble some title down that youād work on later and messily sign your name for Mic to make copies and then throughout the next week, youāve got dozens of messages flooding your inbox telling you to drop it on some streaming platforms.
And the following night Mic is consoling your tears as you hit your first 100 streams.Ā
āIām so proud of you.ā He coos, kissing your cheeks, wiping your tears away with his kisses, patting you on the head.
āYouāre so cheesy.ā You tease him.
āSays you! You named an entire song after me.ā Mic huffs, crossing his arms over his chest.
āWhat ifĀ āmy belovedā was about Marty?ā You giggle. Marty, the sparkly, beautiful, elegant, beta-fish youād adopted as the studio mascot swam around in his tank, decked out with super cool aquatic music themed stuff.
āYou wouldnāt dare!ā Mic laughs, his long blonde hair sweeping over his shoulders.Ā
āYour hair always looks so nice down.ā You snuggle into him, your fingers twisting around the ends. Hizashi shakes his head and stares down at you.
āAnd youāre as radiant as ever, my love.ā Hizashi pulls you into him, snuggling his head into your neck, placing a gentle kiss to your skin as he holds you near to him.
āDo you sing,Ā āZashi?ā You ask quietly.
āNo comment.ā Mic giggles, his laughs tickling your skin.
āWould you work on a song with me?ā You ask sweetly.
āI would love to.ā
Callers chime in every so often for requests, since Mic loves to annoy the listeners by playing your EP track by track almost daily. You have to knock some sense into him telling him that thereās a quota to fill and while you love how he supports you, youāve got them stuck in your head too.
And when you play them every so often, your heart warms when someone requests one of yours to play. Even more so, when your songs rise to much more notable fame, youāre working on your own album, with the lovely producing of Mic, and it even features a lovely duet between the two of you.
In fact, something youād found out with having so many connections to pros, was the amount of hidden talent.
Youād requested a song with Kyoka Jiro, the beautiful voice youād heard at the school festival had belonged to her and youād been wanting to work with her since she also shared a love for music, and though she was young, she seemed rather happy to sing, even if she mightāve been shy about it first.
An unlikely duo mightāve come from a dare, Hawks. While he was rather against the idea at first, his voice was smooth and mellow, and it clashed with yours perfectly for some sort of sappy anti-romantic love song. Whatever the case, it made charts.Ā
But Mic continued to be your biggest supporter, no matter how or if you got big. Youād always find your way back into his arms, messing around with him on the radio show, and dodging paparazzi whenever you two left campus.

Hi, I was wondering when you might start your Mikan essay. I read your anime and NM manga essays during my college semesters, and itās a great destressor!
But I saw something called atrad, and was wondering if itās posted yet? I love your writing, and would love to check it out as well.
From,
š¶ š± š āļø
Hi!
thank u for asking! atrad is the fic im writing right now, all things rancid and delicate, which is an au about mikan in a manson-esque cult! its dark and has some triggering material but i linked it in case ur interested in reading! its 15 chapters so far and i was on a mini hiatus bc of another fic, school, graduation, and also a lil summer laziness. i have maybe 5 chapters left to write and im halfway thru the next one.
when im done w atrad ill write the mikan essay! hers is a little daunting but mostly im excited to start. my sister and i are doing a reread and its allowing me to prep some thoughts. ill do another grander deep read as i do my essay.
so ill start it late august-september. ill be writing it for that time but i dont think ill start posting until october, because 1. i wanna get a headstart and have more written before i start posting so i dont feel as much pressure bc that was often a problem w the natsume essay and 2. ill actually be out of the country visiting my older sister in ireland for 2 weeks at some point so i wont be able to post anything during that time so id rather start posting after than ghosting for two weeks lol!
its definitely coming. ive been so excited to write this essay and itll even be longer than natsumes, most likely! im so happy to see that ppl are interested in whats to come! šš im gonna get thru atrad and start writing the essay, no worries abt that!
#answered#doggocatloverwriter#ga#gakuen alice#all things rancid and delicate#its so funny to imagine the pinned post on my blog will STOP being my natsume essay#its been such a fixture for the past year. ill miss it#oh well!#ppl are still reading it even now which is very flattering lol! i rly genuinely cant wait to start mikans#im rly happy to be asked abt it šāØš

Your O'Knutzy writing is my favourite thing! I feel like Logan is very clingly...wanna write me so cute/soft headcanons abt it? Or when they boys are sick?:))))
hey hey, so i.... deviated... from the prompt IāM SORRY. like i was writing sick logan and somehow i couldnāt channel the clingy whiny part of him. maybe bc i get all awkward, guys-iām-fine-stop-fussing when iām sick sooooooo. honestly ngl this took a while to write, itās been a rough two or so days and iām just exhausted at the moment. itās far from how i wanted it to be, but itās bugging me and i want to post it, so here it is. hope you like it anyway! characters by @lumosinlove.
Logan wakes up one Sunday morning, head pounding and freezing his butt off. He has no idea what time it is, and he tries to open his eyes to check the time on his phone screen, but the moment he even tries to move, it feels like heās going to throw up.Ā
His whole body hurts and heās sweating under the covers, but he simply cannot find the energy to throw them off him.
Exhausted, he lets himself drift off into unconsciousness again, until heās woken up by knocking on his door some time later. He groans, pulling his pillow over his head and hoping that whoever it is will stop fuelling his raging migraine.
When he hears Dumoās worried voice, however, he sighs and musters up enough energy to yell a very hoarse and scratchy come in that makes him sound like a crying horse.
Dumo nudges the door open with his hip and enters the basement, holding a tray with a bowl of soup and a glass of water with some pills in his hands. āHow are you feeling, mon fils?ā He asks softly as he approaches Loganās bed.
āHowāā Loganās voice cracks and he coughs. āHow did you know?ā
āWell, five out of seven people in this house are currently down with the flu, and itās currently eleven in the morning but youāre still not up yet. Wasnāt hard to figure that youād be the sixth,ā He shrugs, placing the tray on the cramped nightstand by his bed. He sits on the edge of the bed, and Logan scoots closer under the covers so Dumo can press the back of his hand to his forehead.
āMerde, youāre burning up. Do you want me to bring down some painkillers for you?ā Dumo asks, frowning as he combs Loganās long brown fringe back, away from his sweaty forehead.
āYeah, that sounds good. Thanks, Dumo,ā Logan rasps out, choking at the end as he dissolves into another round of coughs.
Dumo tuts, shaking his head worriedly as he clasps a hand on Loganās shoulder before standing up. He mumbles to himself in French while he lets himself out of the room, and Logan buries himself further under the covers.
He wakes up again when a warm hand brushes his face, tracing across his cheekbone. He frowns and crinkles his nose, making an incoherent sound as he sniffles, trying to clear his blocked nose.
āHey, did I wake you up?ā A quiet voice asks apologetically, and Logan instinctively leans into the touch. Leo.
āMmmm, but sāok,ā Logan whispers, his hand emerging from under the duvet to close around Leoās wrist.
āHowāre you feeling?ā A second voice pitches in.
āWhat do you think?ā He scoffs, turning his head for a moment so he can sneeze into his elbow.Ā
āOoh, someoneās moody,ā Finnās grinning face comes into focus as Logan blinks a few times, letting his eyes adjust to the light. He scowls, and Finnās gaze softens. āAww, Iām just teasing you, babe. Cāmon, can you sit up?ā
Leo slides a hand under Loganās back and helps him shift into a sitting position, propped up against the headboard with the pillows cushioning his back. Finn picks up the bowl of soup and crosses over to the other side of the bed, carefully climbing onto the mattress and planting himself beside Logan, cross legged and facing him.Ā
He gives the soup a few good stirs with the spoon in his hand, squints at the bowl, and frowns. āIt got cold.ā
Without another word, he gets up and stalks out of the room.Ā
Logan blinks. āI couldāve just drank that. I wouldnāt have minded.ā
Leoās mouth quirks in a lopsided grin. āYou know what heās like. A complete baby at times, but heās such a mom when it comes to things like this.ā
Logan manages a weak laugh, which tapers off into a dry cough. āFuck, I hate being sick.ā
Leo grabs the glass of water and brings it up to Loganās lips, and he closes his fingers around the glass, taking a few big gulps, letting out a satisfied ahhh when he drains the glass within the span of several seconds.
āDumo called you two over?ā He asks, frowning slightly.
āMmhm, texted us saying you were ill, that the whole familyās ill, actuallyāā Leo tosses him a sympathetic look. āBut yeah, Dumoās alone in this, even Celeste can barely get out of bed, so weāre his reinforcements.ā
He grins, and turns around as Finn re-enters the room with the same bowl of soup, now piping hot.
āRight, ām back, went to reheat the soup, Dumoās a mess up there, with the kids just, yāknow,ā Finn rambles absentmindedly as he climbs back onto the bed, the soup sloshing dangerously close to the rim of the bowl.
āI swear, if you spill thatā¦ā
āI wonāt, now stop talking and drink this,ā Finn chides without malice. He scoops a spoonful of the scalding soup, lifts it to his mouth to blow on it gently, and turns his wrist so he can direct the spoon to hover right in front of Loganās face.
āIā I can do it myself, Harz,ā Logan splutters.
āIām sure you can, babe, Iād be worried if you couldnāt. Now hurry up before I actually do spill this.ā
Logan sighs and parts his lips, letting Finn tip the spoonful into his mouth. He sighs, closing his eyes as he feels the warm liquid slide down his throat, and he instantly feels a lot less groggy.Ā
Finn insists on feeding him the whole bowl of soup, whereas Leo helps to bring in a cold, damp cloth from the bathroom to press against Loganās forehead.Ā
āMes amours, Iāll be fine,ā Logan awkwardly chuckles and rubs the back of his neck, not used to having people fuss over him like this.Ā
Leo gives him a strange look, and Finn grins. āYouāre blushing! How adorable. I never thought Iād see the day where youāre embarrassed by people taking care of you.ā
āNo, Iām not,ā Logan says indignantly, but Finn bursts out into laughter.
āYou so are. I love this, oh my god.ā
āFuck you,ā Logan rasps out, and does a weird, painful combination of a sneeze and a cough.Ā
āOkay, okay, letās get some rest, hmm? But,ā Leo points a finger at him. āMedicine first.ā
Damn it.
Logan was hoping that theyād forget about it. He slowly slides downwards, further under the covers, and looks away when Leo holds out the pills in his hand.
āWhaā Cāmon, babe,ā Leoās free hand attempts, and fails, to tug the covers off of Logan. āYouāre not gonna recover if you donāt take your meds.ā
āDonāt wanna,ā Logan replies, voice muffled by the duvet covering his mouth.
āIs it the pills?ā Finn frowns. āYou still donāt take pills after all these years?ā
Logan glares at Finn, who looks genuinely surprised for a moment, before he schools his expression, giving the brunette a small smile.
āOkay, okay,ā He holds his hands up in front of him in surrender. āHey, Peanut, give me those. Iāll be back.ā
Leo hands Finn the pills, and the redhead leaves the room once again, Leo staring at the door closing.
He slides his hand beneath the duvet and locates Loganās hand. He laces their fingers together, resting over Loganās heart and he smiles at him tenderly.
āSāok, mon chou,ā He squeezes Loganās hand, and he melts at how loving and caring his two boys are towards him. He lets himself snuggle closer to Leo, and Leo runs a hand through Loganās hair soothingly, helping to ease his headache into a dull throb.
When Finn comes back into the room, grinning like the cheshire cat, Logan canāt help himself.
āWhat the fuck?ā He croaks out.
āIs he allowed to eat that?ā Leo asks, startled.
āYeah, ice creamās actually good for when youāre sick,ā Finn answers, giving them a smug grin. He climbs back onto the bed, beside Logan, and hands him the bowl.
Logan eyes the two scoops of dark chocolate ice cream warily. āWhereāre the pills, Harz?ā
āWouldnāt you like to know,ā Finn retorts with an exaggerated wink.
āYou know,ā Leoās hand freezes and he leans closer to Loganās ear. āYou need to take your meds if you wanna be strong again, hmm? Youāll definitely need your strength for what Iāve planned for you.ā
Logan shivers as Leoās breath tickles his ear and the hand closed around his moves lower, trailing lightly across his abdomen.
āPlaying dirty, eh, Peanut?ā
āOh, Iāll show you dirty,ā Leo licks his lips, voice low and tone teasing.
Finn clears his throat and nods his head towards the bowl still in Loganās hand.
āYouāre gonna make me finish this, arenāt you?ā Logan sighs defeatedly, rubbing his face against the sleeve of his hoodie wearily.Ā
Finn does a mock bow, which looks ridiculous considering heās seated down, body half twisted to face him. āAny time now, Your Highness.ā
Logan rolls his eyes, but lets go of Leoās hand to pick up the spoon. He tries his best not to think about the pills buried somewhere within the scoops of ice cream, and he shovels spoonful after spoonful into his mouth while leaning against Leoās side.
He reckons he tasted the bitterness of the pills at some points, but overall he has to admit that itās better than he expected. Finn looks like a proud mom when Logan finishes the final scoop and leans his head back against Leoās shoulder, his eyes fluttering shut.
Leo pulls the empty bowl out of Loganās hands and turns around to place them on the nightstand.Ā
āHowāre you feeling, baby?ā Finn whispers, moving closer so he can wrap an arm around Loganās shoulders.Ā
Logan just nods and hums a noncommittal response, full and warm and satisfied. He feels Leo adjusting his position so theyāre lying side by side on the bed, Logan in Finnās arms and Leo spooning him from the back.Ā
āThank you,ā he murmurs into Finnās chest, feeling his mind drift in and out of focus once again.
A soft kiss is pressed onto the top of his head, and he mentally thanks Dumo for calling his boys, his perfect boys, over to the house. He feels much better now; his head has almost completely stopped pounding, heās stopped sweating through his hoodie, and he feels loved.Ā
Logan falls right back asleep with a smile on his face, not even stirring when the door creaks open and Marc stumbles in, piling on top of the boys, right between him and Finn. He definitely doesnāt stir when Dumo stands in the doorway with his phone out to snap a picture of the four boys huddled together on the bed, tired beyond belief, but with the biggest smile heās ever had all day.

This is totally cool, lol! That's why I tagged you, I like different perspectives š„° and I adore lesbian Jenny
I've been thinking a lot about Jenny's character and sexuality lately since I'm in the middle of rewatching the show. I totally agree that she's attracted to women and most times she pursues guys it's mainly to increase social status and not because of genuine interest. Nate always felt different to me, though. Like, the two times she really pursues him is in season 2, when she's being homeschooled and trying to make it as a designer, and the end of season 3, which is after the whole Damien drama and she's just looking for someone who cares about her and respects her (I know you said once that it doesn't even feel romantic here, which I also agree with, poor girl just needs a connection). I do really see how it can be interrupted as comphet, though. Like she feels like she's supposed to be attracted to Nate because who wouldn't be?
I think the reason why I lean the other way is probably just projection. Jenny's been my favourite GG character since I first watched the show when I was 12, partly because I relate a lot to her, and since I'm bisexual... Add that plus the fact that I totally have had a crush on Nate and of course I'm gonna ship them. I've been relating to Jenny even more this time around cause I dropped out of school this year, so her season 2 arc really hit close to me. So this made my jenate feelings come back tenfold and also made me that much madder at Rufus, lol. I just wanted to go through the screen and shake his shoulders like "There are other paths than the one you want your daughter to have, not everyone has to go through life like society expects you to let your daughter carve out her own unconventional path you fucking idiot!" Luckily my parents have been way more supportive.
Mainly I just see Jenny as bi with a strong lean towards women, but I like to think about lesbian Jenny, too. It wouldn't exactly be the first time I had contradicting headcanons.
I don't know I just think it's really cool that different people can have such different interpretations of the same character. I think that's what's so interesting about fiction, to see how we view things differently depending on how we view and relate to things based on our own experiences. Tumblr can be so focused on hating people who disagree with you, but I like following people with different opinions, it helps me understand people better.
Yeah, I'm glad you tagged me!! back in November, some anons were mean to me about shipping Jenate (me??? who literally does not even - anyway) and ever since then I've been trying extra to ensure that Jenate shippers feel welcome on my blog - you may already know this, because I've brought it up before, but I'm saying it here to let you know that every time you tag me in your Jenate edits I get so happy that you're sharing something you're so passionate about with me!! I'm also a big believer of like........ making the content you want to see (a big part of why I even learnt to gif is because nobody was giffing Dan & Nate, and I was like...... that's the content I need, so if it's not already existing, I'm gonna make it happen!) so regardless of my feelings it's always so cool to see the way you conceptualise JN + their feelings re: each other, and your choice of scenes + lyrics (??? I'm not actually familiar with where you got the words for your edits, they're likely songs I haven't heard, haha) is just so interesting & good!
OH my full Jenny & Nate feelings are a lot more complicated than just comphet on Jenny's part. I feel like..... neither of them was romantically/sexually into each other? and that is kind of the appeal to me? I've always interpreted Nate's interest in Jenny during the s2 arc as sort of like - everything in his life is so unstable and undetermined, and here is Jenny who is so clear on who she is and what she wants, and he admires and respects that, and he wants to be there for her and support her, so when she kisses him he just sort of lets her take their dynamic wherever she wants to? that is very much the vibe I got. You already know how I feel about lesbian Jenny, I mean, you quoted my meta right back at me :'))
but I DO agree with you that Nate is different from the other guys to Jenny. JN have this really specific kind of honesty to them - well, when Jenny wasn't spiralling and trying to get power and acting out, and when the writers actually cared? I still think that NJ had the potential to be a SOLID dynamic but the writers made it sorta unhealthy on the show :(( - but I've spoken abt moments like in seventeen candles and the empire strikes jack before, where they're both able to be emotionally vulnerable around each other in ways we don't see them be with anyone else. I've even compared that to what I like about Derena, whom everyone knows I ship in every possible way, haha. But there's something about characters who trust each other and allow themselves to be honest with each other in ways that they wouldn't otherwise EVER be - especially with characters like Jenny & Nate who have spent so long trying to seem fine and okay even when they're really not.
I honestly really like the idea of queerplatonic Jenate - they're life partners, they're each other's rock, they're each other's person - but it's not romantic OR sexual - and for Nate & Jenny, whose adolescence has involved navigating other people sexualising them so much + not having the best track record with romantic relationships - for them, I feel being qpps gets REALLY interesting, because you get all the perks of a relationship without the romantic/sexual obligations? (obligations isn't the best word, but i don't know what else to use here? LOL) and that's something i love to explore.
I feel like book Jenny was bi! The way she gushed about Nate, whom she canonically had a crush on, and the way she gushed about Serena were EXACTLY the same. Also YES I love multiple headcanons always, it's a lot of fun seeing people explore that!!! I know people who have aroace readings of Jenny, or aro lesbian / ace lesbian readings of her, and I find that really cool, too!
I also definitely get you about relating to Jenny a lot, and feeling that kind of connection. It's similar to how I feel about Dan, and .... explains a lot of my contradicting dair views, actually. A few years ago I had a seriously intense crush on a girl who was... a lot like Blair, in many ways. I spent a ridiculous amount of time writing poetry about her, etc etc, but I never actually acted on it. If she'd fabricated schemes that involved us kissing, though..... I don't know. I don't think I would've denied it if I'd felt like I actually had a chance. I think we just had a case of bad timing, & I like to think in another universe, maybe we were actually together for a bit. I'm glad that your parents are supportive of you and better than Rufus! <3
I think that's what's so interesting about fiction, to see how we view things differently depending on how we view and relate to things based on our own experiences <- THIS exactly! this is a big part of why that "proship" is in my bio. like this is exactly what it means to me and how I conceptualise & understand it!!! Like you, I also like engaging with people who have different understandings and opinions of the characters -> it definitely helps you make new friends you would otherwise not meet by staying in your bubble, & from a fandom point of view, it also helps you develop a more nuanced understanding of a character. Some of the best written Jenny Humphrey I've read was in Jenate fics - and I've had people who don't even ship Blenny tell me they liked the way I wrote Jenny in my post canon blennyfic, so... idk. it's loving Jenny hours - each and every single iteration of Jenny!!!
#long post#edmundapologist#jenate#i would usually like . put a post of this length under a read more#but i don't know where i would insert that here? so this is how it turns out i guess#meta#also adding the#personal#tag. this feels mildly TMI but it's nothing i haven't said before in tags#this is the first time i'm Formally putting it out here though#tumblr user rainathorpe came THIS close to having an irl dair arc... hashtag so much for that#ALSO ! sometimes i tag stuff like that because like -#my blog kind of serves as a record or journal for ME#sometimes i read thru my own posts like 'so true bestie' fghgklhf#which i think is the best way to run a tumblr. be your own audience!#thank you for this ask btw - it's very sweet!! <3

Out & About (PT. 1)
Read Pt. 2 Pt. 3 Pt. 4
Pairing: Bakugo x reader
Fluff/Friends to Lovers (?), lots and lots of pining.
Synopsis: Reader is very close friends with the Bakusquad, except for the aloof and mysterious Bakugo. He still intrigues them however, and a night out with the group might actually be the the push they need to really get the ball rolling on transitioning their awkward comradery into something a little- more.
Note: this is the first fanfic Iāve ever written, Iām very spooked. Thereās a ton of stress out there in the world rn, and Iām trying to find comfort in writing. I hope you enjoy. (Also Iām sorry abt the formatting of this fic I donāt have a laptop to post from :0) -K.
āIām so glad we could do this, guys!ā
You beamed at your friends, excited to set out for the evening. The major exam everyone had been studying diligently for all week was finally over, and the Bakusquad agreed to celebrate by going into the city to enjoy the night life. To be completely honest, in the week leading up to the test, you had been strangely on edge-but not just because of the workload. The dormitory had become oddly quiet, with everyone either off in the library or retreating to hit the books in the silent comfort of their rooms. You missed the hustle and bustle of everyone chatting, eating Satoās latest confectionary masterpieces, and most of all, the unbridled energy your friends provided. Well, most of them, anyway.
At least now you could finally relax for the weekend and enjoy a good meal with them.
āRight? It feels like forever since weāve done something like this,ā Mina groaned, leaning her head on your shoulder. Her spikey horns jabbed into your chin. The murmur of the station felt familiar, a calming setting for you and your friends.
Kirishima flashed one of his bright smiles. āAw, itās only been a couple of weeks!ā
āYeah but you know Iām clingy,ā Mina pouted. āI need my favorite peeps or else I get sad and droopy.ā
You chuckled, pushing her playfully off your shoulder. āYouāre so dramatic, Mina.ā
You were thankful for such cheerful and enthusiastic friends. They were all energetic, happy, and extroverted. They really brought you out of your shell at the beginning of the year, and you had gotten to know them all so well over late-night movie marathons or afternoons at the arcade. You surveyed your little group, watching Kaminari begrudgingly charge Seroās phone, Mina laughing uproariously at his some joke Kiri cracked, and their general bubbly aura. Then, your eyes caught on a familiar pair of piercing red ones.
Scratch that. You had gotten to know most of them pretty well.
What could you say about Bakugo Katsuki? Well, he was impulsive. Talented. Aloof. Angry.
That was about it. How such a grumpy, quiet boy had attracted these walking rays of sunshine was beyond you. Not to say you hate Katsuki or anything. In fact, one might say that you like him.
He had that extreme sort of passion that youād never seen before, in anyone. He had a keen eye for peopleās strengths and weaknesses, both in combat and just in genral. He encouraged you through those traits to go beyond your limits. And though he was cruel and rude to others, the worst he had been to you was a little standoffish. You knew Bakugo was going to be a really great hero someday, and you wanted to get to know him better. Most days, it felt like you were getting to him; becoming something a person would call friends. Then heād look you in the eye with those dark, stoic eyes and it felt like you knew nothing about him all over again. If eyes were the windows to the soul, Bakugo guarded his with a legion of soldiers and an iron gate.
Itās okay you mused to yourself. Nobody really knows him, to be fair. Except maybe Kiri and Deku. But heās known Deku for years! And Kiri can get anyone out of their shell. Why would Bakugo want to be good friends with me? Heās not obligated to. I shouldnāt pester him. But I still want to get to know him! Damn.
āOi, Y/N!ā
You snapped out of your thoughts. Bakugo glared at you. Or maybe it was just the way his face naturally was. Maybe it was just you, but those red eyes seemed to soften a bit.
āCāmon, trainās here.ā
You nodded following behind your chattering group. The car was nearly empty, and most of your friends darted for the seats. Kaminari laid across three, spreading out as if her were royalty. Chances are, he probably felt like it.
āThis is the most luxurious thing Iāve ever experienced,ā he sighed. Sero flicked the back of his head, causing Kaminari to shoot up with a yelp. āThatās sad, Denki. Scooch over.ā
Kaminari turned to you, rubbing the his head where Sero had flicked him. āNot sitting, Y/N?ā
āNah. Iāve been sitting at a desk all week, Iād like to refrain from it for now. Iāll bet my posturesā shot.ā
Denki shrugged. āSuit yourself,ā he splayed over Seroās lap. āBut just know youāre missing out.ā
āDonāt get too comfortable, Sparky,ā Bakugo growled. āItās almost rush hour. By the next station, this placeāll be packed.ā
Bakugo took his place by one of the seats, opting to stand by the pole next to the door. He was close enough to the seats so that it was clear he was part of the Bakusquad , but just far enough to isolate himself from the conversation. You stranded almost directly across from him, allowing yourself to face the group so that you could converse with all of them, rather by being in a row side by side. Your hand gently held the plastic ring above your head. You all had fallen into a comfortable chatter, laughing about how well you did on the exam and the latest slip-up Kaminari had made in training. The train swayed gently, and all was well. Then came the next stop.
You gaped at the crowd that had accumulated at the doors, dreading when theyād open. All tired looking folks dressed in smart suits and clutching their briefcases. You were silently impressed by their sheer numbers. Living in isolated school dorms with the little student social bubble you had had made you forget how vast the city was. It made you miss your morning commute a little bit. But, when the doors finally opened, that feeling completely evaporated.
It was as if a sea of black ties, dress shirts, and loafers had washed over you. You looked down, determined to contain your bewildered expression. The others were not faring so well in that department. Their cartoonish expressions were accented by quiet (and sometimes loud) yelps at the office people trampling their toes. Bakugo remained unfazed. In the chaos, you loosened your grip on the plastic loop to check your phone. 5:00 PM on the dot. We really are kind of dumb. You wondered to yourself why Bakugo hadnāt said anything when you suggested the outing after class. He was usually so outspoken when it came to stuff like that. And itās not like he hadnāt known. You sighed, putting your phone away. I should have checked the time before we left... if I had just suggested to go a little later, the crowd wouldnāt be this bad. Well whatās done is done.
As you slipped our phone into your pocket, you found yourself being sharply pushed by the crowd. Another swell of people had entered, and your loose grip didnāt serve you well in such a circumstance. Naturally, you fell forward. Right into Bakugo. Your head collided with his and you tried to reel backwards in pain- but Bakugo pulled you closer to him, grabbing your wrists with an impressive grip.
āOwwww...ā
āShut up, youāre making a scene,ā He hissed, eyes scanning you with... worry? As if suddenly becoming aware of this, Bakugo quickly returned to his usual cold demeanor.
You groaned. āItās not as if itās my fault that I got pushed. Or that you have a such a hard skull.ā You suddenly realized how close you two were. Most of your friends were pretty physically affectionate, and you had no discomfort hugging them or cuddling with them. But Bakugo was not a ācuddleā person. Hell, his if his attitude wasnāt enough, his hair said it all. He did not like being touched. But here you were, chest to chest, his hands gripping your wrists, faces just a nose apart.
If it bothered him, he didnāt show it. You turned to look at the spot you were just standing in, craning your neck just to get a peek. It was tough.
āItās useless,ā Bakugo sighed. āThereās three extras in the place you were. Bastards are glued to their phones.ā
You shrugged, peering up at him. More and more people were cramming into the car like sardines. āGuess Iāll have to stay here for now. Sorry.ā
Bakugo averted his stony gaze, a gentle agony lining his face. āSāokay.ā The rest of your group seemed to take no notice of the state the two of you were in. Mina and Kiri has pushed themselves up against the wall in an effort to be as small as possible, Seroās gangly frame was not doing him favors, and you swore you heard Kaminari sobbing somewhere, though his shock of blonde hair was out of sight. Somehow, aside from the awkwardness of being near Bakugo, you werenāt uncomfortable. He had stopped holding your wrists and instead kept his hands hovering near your waist in order to keep you from falling over or accidentally bumping into another passanger. Not that you needed it our anything. You knew it was because he felt uncomfortable putting his hands anywhere else. Your own arms were similarly placed, and in a weird way, it was as if you two were embracing. Probably as close to a hug from Katsuki that youād ever get.
With nothing else to look at, you observed his features. You knew already that his eyes were something else altogether, but you released a short intake of breath. Bakugo was handsome. You had thought that when you first saw him, but you truly had taken it for granted. This close, his features were rendered beautifully. His jawline, the way his hair fell- it was sort of ethereal. He kept his eyes trained on everything but you, as if he were trying to forget you were there. But on top of all that...
āBakugo, you smell like caramel?ā His eyes darted back to your own, that vulnerability you had only seen recently shining through. It stayed a little longer than last time.
āTch. Itās my quirk,ā he tried to look away, but you pressed him further.
āOh? I didnāt know that,ā you hummed, trying to keep your composure. Talking this close to Katsuki was beyond your skill level. You patted yourself on the back internally for at least making it this far. āDoes it have something to do with your parentsā quirks?ā He flinched, and you worried you had gone too far. He never had been one for small talk. But he obliged, a faint pink dusting his cheeks. āKind of. My mom sweats glycerin and my dad can make explosions with his hands. I sweat nitroglycerin, and it lets me make explosions. And nitroglycerin smells like burnt sugar, or-ā
āCaramel,ā you finished, grinning. That was probably the most he had ever said to you in one sentence. And, to your suprise, he smiled back. But this smile melted your heart. It was sweet and unassuming and he didnāt even seem aware of it. You tried to hide your shock. āHeh. Smart Y/N. Youāre such a know-it-all.ā He tapped your forehead with his fist, right at the spot you two had collided. You flinched. The injury was still tender. Bakugoās face changed, but still remained vulnerable and kind. āIām sorry. Are you okay?ā He knelt to see you eye to eye, and examined your face. He had asked with a genuine concern you had never seen before. Those words seemed like they werenāt meant for his mouth. You felt your face flush. If he was just an inch closer you two would be-
What the fuck?? No way. No fucking way.
There was no way. It wasnāt possible that you could be falling for Bakugo fucking Katsuki. The explosive boy who cackled maniacally whenever he got to punch someone. The sport festival victor who beat up Uraraka, the human equivalent of a cinnamon roll, without an ounce of mercy. The student so notorious for his mean streak that the League of Villains had tried to recruit him.
But that internal part, deep within you knew that he was more than his surface-level outrage. Thatās why you liked him so much, right? Thatās why you wanted to be his friend. He was a boy who was passionate, ambitious, and honest. Not many could see that. Still, more than this, he displayed a tenderness you didnāt think he was capable of.
A tenderness that was only a nose away from meeting your lips.
āIām fine, Bakugo.ā You attempted to subtly scooch backwards, hoping to increase to distance at least by a smidge. If you stayed in a position like this after a revelation like that, youād truly implode.
Bakugo was no idiot. He saw you squirm at the proximity, and drew back, his usual aura returning. Internally, he smacked himself. Idiot, idiot, idiot. How could you forget? At best, you two are just friends. Most of the time, youāre just acquaintances. Control yourself, Bakugo.
You two kept this awkward silence until your stop, cheeks ablaze. After what felt like forever, your destination was announced, and Mina gave a shout of joy and relief so loud it seemed like it shook the entire train. You and Bakugo squeezed past the suits, you offering up enough apologies to compensate the both of you for a lifetime of sin. When you reached the door, it felt as if you were finally getting your head above water. You sighed deeply, talking in the rhythms of the station.
āWow. That was awful,ā you breathed. Bakugo grunted. His eyes refused to meet yours, and your heart sank. This was the Bakugo that everyone knew. The grumpy and angry Bakugo and nothing more. Not the sweet boy with the soft eyes who had asked with the gentlest tone if you were ok. But you still liked him. What is wrong with me?!
Mina flopped on the floor like a beached whale. āUghhhhhhhh.ā
āMina, get up! Thatās so gross,ā Sero stepped over her, disgusted.
Kiri checked the group, making sure everyone got off. āWhereās Kaminari?ā
A distant screech sounded from the train, and Kaminari burst through the doors just as they were about to close, talking his place on the station floor beside Mina. You laughed. This happiness made you forget about Bakugo, if at least for a second. But his eyes were trained on you, watching you toss you head back in joy and look at everything with such a deep love.
You saw, for one second as you turned back towards him, that soft smirk he almost never had. And your heart beat faster.
āOkay everyone! Letās go!ā

Lunch
Indiana Jones x reader, Catcher Block x reader
Word Count: 1.4k
Warnings: none I donāt think!
Authorās Note: So galaxy brain is probably the only way to describe @milleniumxhan today and I just made up some situation where this would happen (before Down With Love and like post last crusade) and I just LOVE IT! The concept! I didnāt have the reader end up with either but the CONCEPT! Ugh Iād love to do this with a different prompt in the future, maybe where the reader ends up with someone or something? Idk i just love this
Requested: by @milleniumxhan n, Oki I just had a random thought and ik the timelines don't exactly add up but like it'd be so cool if u could do and Indiana Jones x reader x Catcher Block. Like smthg with ewan McGregor and harrison ford in vintage is so hot. Idk abt the plot tho. If I think of something I'll msg u.
Summary: the request!
Genre: idk bro
(not my gif)
You sat Indianaās desk and flipping through the papers and letters that he had scattered around. You wondered briefly how the hell he even was able to grade papers when he was on expeditions all the time. The few times you went with him you never saw him settle enough to grab his bag and grade anything. Then again, you had slept most of the flights which may explain it.
āCan you double check this?ā he asked, moving away from the chalkboard. School had ended about an hour ago and he had yet to leave so as the honorable best friend you were, you stayed back to give him some company. You taught at one of the buildings across the street.
You were about to put the letters down when you came across a letter from a journalist. Indiana got those all the time, people always wanting to hear about his adventures. You didnāt blame them. You often blamed him for never taking a chance on any of the journalists. Some of them would write him a piece that might get him more recognition for his findings which you thought he deserved.
The letter was carefully typed out, the typewriter ink and spacing pristine. You raised an eyebrow and skimmed it briefly.
āY/N?ā He turned to look at you reading over the paper and you held up a finger, mouthing some words here and there. You saw it was signed by Catcher Block and nearly combusted. Catcher Block wanted to interview your best friend? If that wasnāt a dream come true you didnāt know what was.
āCatcher Block wants to interview you Indy!ā you told him excitedly and he raised an eyebrow, walking over to see what you were looking out. You had taken your legs off of his desk and on the ground to steady yourself from being too excited.
āCatcher who?ā he asked, looking over the words. He got those kinds of letters all the time. Commending him for being such a great archeologist and such and that they wanted to interview him. There was never any surprises. The only surprise here is that you seemed to know who this was.
āCatcher Block! New York City journalist.ā
āYouāve read some of his stuff?ā Indy asked and you shrugged.
āSure. Heās really hot. Can you accept this one? For me!ā you pleaded. Indiana was hesitant. Especially since you seemed to be attracted to Catcher Block. You and Indy had been friends and colleagues for years and because of his fear of commitment he had never tried to make a move, even when he wanted to. He enjoyed you and your friendship. He didnāt want to ruin that. You were also a few years younger than him which also was an easy excuse for him to not want to start a relationship with you. But you had never really talked about your dating life with him. There was never a need to. He couldnāt help but feel a pang of jealousy.
āNo. Come check my work,ā he stated simply, throwing the paper aside and walking back to the white board. You scoffed and took the paper, dialing the number on the bottom in Indiana's phone on his desk. He should have known.
āHello?ā A man picked up on the other end and you smiled.
āHi, is this Catcher Block?ā you asked professionally. Indy gave you a look and you stuck your tongue out at him. You could almost feel the smugness on the other end of the phone.
āYes maāam. Who is this?ā
āIām calling on behalf of Indiana Jones who would like to accept your invitation for an interview. When can you fly down?ā There was a brief scuffling on the other end and then Catcher was back.
āIs tomorrow alright miss?ā he asked. You nodded, giving Indy an innocent smile.
āYes tomorrow will be perfect.ā You spewed some stuff about where and when to meet him and then hung up, smiling.
Tomorrow came quickly and Indiana made you promise that you would come to dinner as well at some fancy restaurant. He didnāt want to be left alone with some stringy journalist and he was determined to prove to you that you didnāt need any Catcher Block in your life.
Indiana came to pick you up at eight and was amazed at your outfit choice. You had really made yourself up for dinner. He wasnāt sure if he should be jealous or flattered but he wasted no time in playfully flirting with you on the way to dinner.
And then you saw Catcher Block and Indiana cursed aloud, not that you noticed.
āHi! Iām Catcher Block, I am so glad youāve allowed me to do this Mr.Jones. And you must be Mrs.Jones?ā he asked. Indiana almost confirmed that but you just dismissed him with a wave of your hand and then the two of you shook Catchers hand.
āJust a friend. I spoke to you on the phone actually! Iām Y/N Y/L/N,ā you clarified. He raised an eyebrow and as he shook your hand briefly brushed your left hand ring finger, making note that there was no ring there.
āOh well in that case,ā he said with a charming smile and kissed your hand. You blushed and cleared your throat, retreating behind Indiana with a small smile at Catcher.
The dinner actually went okay for the most part. You had gotten so used to Indiana flirting with you that a new form of attraction from someone else threw you off bad and you had trouble standing your ground. Eventually however, you did get there. You were able to add to what Indy was saying and go into more detail because he obviously was not a fan of talking to Catch. You had fun, hanging out with Indiana and Catcher.
You left that night and the next day Indy stopped by your classroom to see how you felt about the interview/dinner.
āDo you think we could go for another expedition then? I am exhausted of being here,ā you complained. Indy sat on one of the students desks and laughed.
āIām getting a little old for that donāt you think?ā he teased and you rolled your eyes.
āYouāre not that o-ā You were cut off by the phone ringing. You raised an eyebrow and picked it up. It was unusual to get a call this late in the school day on your school phone.
āHi, is this Y/N?ā You smiled and your eyes went wide. Indy knew who it was.
āYes it is. Catcher?ā You twirled the phone cord with your finger and Indiana scaled the space between you two in three large strides so that he could hear what you were saying into the phone better.
āYes maāam. Listen I had fun with you last night and was wondering if you wanted to get lunch tomorrow before I left town,ā he asked. You smiled to yourself and Indiana shook his head.
āNo lunch,ā he told you and you hit his arm.
āLunch would be perfect!ā

i think the thing we havenāt considered about Gay Eddie content is his reactions when everyone will inevitably ask about myra... they literally have to make it so he gets uncomfy and doesnāt wanna talk about it like in the book like itās literally canon praise stephen king
ok i know you didnt ask for this but i thought abt richie asking eddie abt myra but in a way where hes very obviously trying to hide the fact that hes hurt/jealous and justā¦had to write it. i wrote this in like ten minutes so its bad but the day i stop posting bad content is the day i die
ā-
Richie levels his gaze at Eddie over his shot glass. The glass is held between his teeth, he tips his head back and downs the shot without using his hands. Then he slams the glass back onto the table, swipes a hand across his mouth, flings an arm over the back of Bevās chair, and meets Eddieās eye again.Ā
Itās the most calculated thing Richie has done all night. And heās drunkĀ to top it off.Ā
It makes Eddie feel nervous.Ā
āSo, letās hear it,ā Richie says. If it was anyone else, their voice would have been drowned out by all the background noise, the chattering of the other Losers. But Eddie hears Richie loud and clear. Maybe itās because Richieās voice is loud. Maybe itās because Eddie has tunnel vision.Ā āWho is she?āĀ
Eddie says the stupidest thing that ever has come out his mouth.Ā āWho?āĀ
āWho -,ā Richie echoes, and he bursts out laughing. At the sound, the other Losers fade out of their conversations and tune into this one.Ā āOh, thatās gold. Wanna leave the olā ball and chain back at home, huh?āĀ
Eddie realises, then, what Richie had been asking. Embarrassed, his blood burns under his skin. Nervous, his skin itches under his ring.Ā
āBut, seriously,ā Richie continues.Ā āWho had the privilege to wed and bed our spaghetti?ā When he says that, Bev makes an offended noise and smacks him across the chest.Ā āOof.ā Richie caves in a little, placing a hand over his lungs.Ā āOkay, sorry. I just wanna know the name of Mrs Eddie Kaspbrak.āĀ
āUh,ā says Eddie. The restaurant lights glint off the frames of Richieās glasses and theyāre bright, too bright, like a spark.Ā āMyra.āĀ
Richie cocks a brow.Ā āYou donāt sound too confident there, buddy,ā he snorts. āWhat, donāt tell meā¦Eddie, are you making her up?āĀ
āWhat?ā Eddieās voice rises a pitch.Ā āNo.āĀ
āLet me guess, I donāt know her because she goes to another school.ā Richie cracks up at his own joke. It might be funny if he didnāt sound like such an asshole. Thereās a unanimousĀ āshut up, Richie,ā around the table.Ā
āAlright, alright, sheās real. Donāt think Iām doubting your ability to find a mate, Eds, I mean, we all know youāre a catch,ā Richie says. He adds that last line with a swipe of his hand under his nose, a failing in his grin. He leans in. The lights donāt just seem too bright, they feel too hot.Ā āIs she a catch, though?ā Richie asks. His grin drops completely. āShe hot?āĀ
āRichie,ā Bev groans.Ā āShut up.āĀ
āAs if you arenāt all thinking the same thing,ā Richie retorts.Ā
āFuck off, Richie,ā Eddie says, but thereās little fire in it.Ā
āOr what?ā Richie retorts. āIām not allowed to ask questions now?āĀ
āNo, I -āĀ
āSeems weird that Iām not allowed to ask about your wife,ā Richie interrupts.Ā
Eddie falters, tries to respond but his throat has seized up, under Richieās unwavering gaze. Thereās something so pointed about it, the way Richie looks at him. Something sharp. But not sharp in a witty, smart sort of way. It feels almostā¦angry. A littleā¦cold. Wrong.Ā
āFine,ā says Eddie.Ā
They look at each other over the table for what feels like a very long time. Eddie lifts his chin, just a little, trying to be defiant, but heās a bundle of anxiety. Because Richie is, once, again, being calculated.Ā
āYou getting laid on the reg, Eds?ā Richie asks, finally, and that sharpness is in his voice, too.Ā
Ben covers his face with his hands.Ā
āWhat?ā Richie asks, defensive, a little bitter, though no one said anything.Ā āJust wanna know that sheās treating him good.āĀ
āRichieā¦ā someone groans.Ā
āWhy?ā Eddie asks, though itās so quiet he doubts anyone heard it. Richie looks at him like he did.Ā
Bill sits up a little straighter, clears his throat. Ever the leader.Ā āLetās talk about something else. If Richie is gonna be such an ass.āĀ Richie looks ready to challenge him before he slumps irritably against his chair, and, surprisingly, says nothing. Just works his tongue against the inside of his cheek, as Bill starts up a conversation with Mike, stares at his beer for a moment before he snatches it up and chugs it.Ā
Eddie looks away, fingering his wedding ring. He thinks that if he had remembered Richie, he would have dreaded this. The inevitable conversation about Myra. But only with Richie. But whyĀ only with Richie? Because he wouldāve known that Richie would be an asshole? Because he wouldnāt have wanted Richie to know Myra existed? Why wouldnāt he want that?Ā
He thinks if he had remembered Richie, maybe there wouldnāt have ever been a conversation about Myra to begin with.Ā
Thatās a dangerous thought.Ā
His wedding ring burns.Ā
Impulsively, he pulls it off his finger. Holds it between his forefinger and thumb for a moment, stares at it. He feels nothing toward it. This hunk of silver. Itās a symbol, the wedding ring, an honoured symbol. But to him it means nothing. He might as well be holding a bottle cap.Ā
Except a bottle cap wouldnāt be so hard to look at.Ā
He shoves it into his pocket.Ā
Not because of his conversation with Richie, but because he has wanted to do that ever since he got it. Ever since Myra slid it onto his finger and Eddie had a sinking feeling, so deep in his stomach, that she should be someone else.Ā
Heās doing it for himself.Ā
When he looks up, Richie is watching him.Ā
Eddieās heart leaps into his throat. Quick as anything, Richie looks away. But Eddie saw. Saw how still Richie had been. How quiet his eyes were. How careful his mouth was.Ā
The other Losers chatter on amongst themselves, unaware.Ā Ā
Richie and Eddie sit silently, the most aware theyāve been in twenty seven years.Ā

greetings earthlings !! itās ur resident space mom, saoirse, here and holy FUCK dudes am i JAZZED to be posting this rn !! iām #blessedā¦.. #honoredā¦.. #gratefulā¦.. wow.Ā without further ado, i present u all with my dear, darling, dumbass daughterā¦ā¦ KIKI !!
this is going to be less of a bio and more of me popping off abt lucy SO if u want to read an actually cohesive bio go ahead and click HERE !! she also has a stats page HERE if thats the kinda thing ur into !! otherwiseā¦ lets go stupid (ahhh) go crazy (ahhh)
welcome to kikiās delivery service
my MFN WOMANā¦.. Ė * ā ā KIBBY KIKI KIBLER ā ā * Ė ā¦. where to begin i dont even KNOW but i will say that this girl? is my queen. the loml. sheās lowkey actually me so iām biased but i?? love her.
okay. SO. sheās kind of a hardass. there! i said it! she is! but itās not really her fault! let us dive right on in and see why she is the way she is
so first things first she was adopted and like its never been a secret or something she doesnt talk abt so basically everyone most likely knows all about that if theyre close to her! she tried rly hard in high school to try and find her birth parents ( using her skills she gathered through copious hours spent watching true crime documentaries ) and came up short so that kind of made her like :/
shes super super close w her adopted family though! sheās been with them since she was a baby so like... thereās nothing WRONG w that family dynamic
when she was a lil tiny one her best friend was her grandma who was likeā¦. a super oddball lady and always told crazy stories about ghosts and sprites and fairies and all that stuff but kiki absolutely LOVED it. her parents eventually had her grandma move into a retirement home type of deal when she got rly old and senile and that was super hard on herā¦ which leads into my next point !!
another big thing that defined her life is that she was a SELECTIVE MUTE which developed when she started kindergarten ( which was also the school yr after her grandma left ) and she finally overcame thru therapy around the time she was in fifth grade.
it was through an assignment from her therapist that she and daisey first āspokeā bc in second grade she was still terrible at speaking to other kids n her therapist suggested she tried to write a letter instead as a sort of first step to ease into Ā things! she didnāt expect for daisey to write back but she did!! and they became āfriendsā for a while but that ended after fifth grade
once she overcame her anxiety she rly started to FLOURISH as the beautiful little weirdo that she is !! words literally cannot even explain to u what kind of strange this little duck is but sheās also perfect and the only one allowed to insult her is ME.
but then... yknow..... middle school n high school happened and kids are MEAN. so sad. she could talk but she often didnāt because everyone looked at her like she was crazy and she ended up being... more on the outside of things than on the inside.
but also sheās so genuinely good even though she can come across as rlyā¦.. brashā¦. sheās not MEAN but she just doesnāt have the time or the energy to bullshit around with anyone. sheās gonna call it like she sees it and anyone who doesnāt?? on her shit list.
also, by default, sheās not a very trusting person so???? ur gonna be likely to see the more Aloof and Quiet kiki than anything else UNLESS youve proven to her that she can open up to you!
but BE WARNED. if u wrong her.... WHEW, itās game over! good luck EVER getting her to open back up to you again!
also donāt underestimate her intelligence. donāt do it. ppl try to brush her off as an airhead or an idiot bc sheāsā¦.. the way she isā¦. and says shit abt the prophetic dreams she receives... but sheās also honestly so smart and will go off on u in a HEARTBEATĀ abt systematic oppression or psychology or politics bc sheās a criminal justice major & psych minor
she loves astrology and so do i so i gave her my bday so that we could have some of the same signs in our natal chartsā¦ since sheās literallyā¦. me. ANYWAY. sheās a cancer sun, scorpio moon & libra rising !! which makes her a fundamentally emotional personā¦. sheās got those water signs across the board INCLUDING her mercury in cancer (which i can best describe as sighing being her preferred mode of communication)
sheās also a big time SLYTHERIN and thatās that on that! thank u!
Ā i .... donāt have the brain power to think abt wanted plots at the moment but u BET ur BOTTOM i will dwell on it and have some kinda something up tmrw!! but UNTIL THEN !! pls message me (either on here or on discord though i will say discord is preferred) and we can chit chat it out and maybe start to brainstorm some things!!
