#wow this was a lot of fun heck!!!!!

[computer-einstein]

Have you seen these before? I feel like this is something you'd find neat-- they're made from old circuit boards instead of sending them off to landfills, so it's reusing it :]

((//I have no clue how we got this I found it in our shed lol-- apparently these were made in the late 90s early 2000s?))

Ooooooo

I'll take 500 of those for €4000, please.

I wish my school had these.

[sokokoko]

I hate those generic questionnaires like that too. This is actually useful. Bravo! Thanks \(◡̈ )/♥︎

A Writer's Guide to Character Development

I don’t know about you guys, but I can only answer “what’s your character’s favorite flavor of ice cream” so many times before I realize those lists are not going to help me actually write the character.

So, instead, I like to drabble practice. Answer these ten key questions about your character (answer in character). Then, after you know them a little better, write ten scenes (NOT part of your planned story) with the ten prompts below. Set it in your world, but it can be whenever you want—pre-story, or post-story, or mid-story. You could even write two scenes for one prompt, contrasting where your character starts the story and where they end up, or write one in first person and then write it again in third.

Just has to cover events that are NOT plot points. The point of the exercise is to come up with scenes you can toss out as soon as you finish them. You might end up using some of the lines or scenes you come up with, but for now you’re just playing around. 

QUESTIONS

What does your character tell everyone is their greatest fear? What is it actually? Is it the same? Why or why not?

What is their greatest strength and greatest weakness? 

Name the most important people to this character. All of them. Family and close friends and lovers.

Does your character have enemies? Who and why?

What is your character’s favorite holiday and why? 

How does your character like to present himself/herself? How do they dress? How do they act? Are they friendly or standoffish? Do they like to make a scene, or are they a wallflower?

What is their love language? How do they express it, and how do they best receive it?

What is their highest virtue? What is something that peers would praise about your character? What do they value most in other people?

Are they messy or neat? Why or why not?

If your character could change one thing about their life, what would it be and why? And, conversely, if they could only save one thing from their life, what would it be?

PROMPTS

Your character has had a bad day. What happened?

Your character’s loved one is sick. What do they do?

It’s your character’s birthday.

Someone is hiding something from your character. How do they uncover what it is?

Your character has just heard the news. A character they loved is dead. Describe the rest of their day.

Your character is on their own for dinner.

Your character has the day to himself/herself. No responsibilities, nothing. What do they do?

In the middle of the night, your character hears a noise in the house.

Your character knows they will die at midnight. What is their last day like?

Your character suddenly develops amnesia. Their loved ones try to jog your character’s memories by taking them to familiar locations and reminiscing.

WHB Series #1 (Cont.)

Asmodeus: *chuckles* Why are you pinching your nose?

MC: *is in a bathing pool with him*

MC: I need the bath.

Asmodeus: That doesn't answer my question, dear.

MC: You're making me gag.

Asmodeus: ...

Asmodeus: Now that's rude.

MC: You're offended? Huh. That's a first.

Asmodeus: ...

Asmodeus: *laughs*

Asmodeus: It seems you had a conversation with Solomon.

MC: Well, he wanted to greet you himself, but allowing him to take control of my body is not an option.

Asmodeus: Aww... Too bad. I could have lots of fun with him.

MC: If you bother looking for his bones, you could.

Asmodeus: *chuckles* *splashes water on their face*

MC: What the fuck-

Leviathan and Satan: Descendant of Solomon!/MC!

MC: ...

MC: *sarcastically* Wow... You two are just in time.

Leviathan and Satan: ...

Satan: Okay, we're here now.

Leviathan: You didn't fall for Asmodeus, did you?

MC: The heck?

Satan: *chuckles* Looks like not, good.

MC: ...

MC: Hm, is it just you two?

Leviathan: Yes. Were you expecting anyone?

MC: My seraphs. Except Michael.

Satan: Heh, I doubt they would come here.

Satan: They're not immune like you.

MC: So... Abaddon has great defenses. Impressive.

One of Abaddon's devils: Thank you, descendant of Solomon.

Leviathan and Satan: ...

Satan: Why are you stepping on him?

MC: There's no rug.

Leviathan: *glares at the devil*

Minhyeok: ...

Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel: *are waiting for MC's arrival in his house*

Minhyeok: ...

Minhyeok: Why don't you just go after them?

Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel: ...

Minhyeok: Why do I even bother asking...

Minhyeok: ...

Minhyeok: I know nothing about entertaining angels; however, would you like to see MC's childhood pictures?

Michael: Childhood pictures?

Gabriel and Raphael: *glare at him*

Gabriel: If I were you, I would rather not show them.

Raphael: God wouldn’t be pleased if we violated their privacy.

Michael: I don't see any harm. Show them to me, human.

Minhyeok: ...

Minhyeok: On a second thought, yeah... It wouldn't be a good idea.

Michael: ...

Michael: I order you to show them to me.

MC: Thanks for your assistance, Dantalian.

Dantalian: ...

MC: ...

MC: *pulls out the dagger from his chest*

Dantalian: AWWWW! Why?! You could've kept it there!

MC: Nah. I need this.

Dantalian: Hmph!

MC: ...

Asmodeus: Descendant of Solomon.

MC: Yes?

Asmodeus: *smiles* Please think of my proposal the next we meet.

MC: ...

*Asmodeus suggested using Abaddon's military power if they ever found themselves in trouble.*

MC: Your offer is too generous but sure, I'll consider that.

Asmodeus: And don't forget, you'll have to summon me while you're in bed and naked.

MC: Yeah, no.

Asmodeus: *chuckles*

I HAVE BEEN HIT WITH A VISION FROM THE ELDER GODS!

You can see from miles away that Bi Han is touch starved as hellll, im talking STARVING.... so I honestly see that man just feeling turned on from simple kisses. Like, 1 min of kisses, BAM, ready to go! I feel like that intimacy may get him going, since thats a rare thing in his life

This isn't a request for a fic ( unless you want it to be 👀 ) but I am obsessed with Bi Han and I just realised this while drinking my coffee this morning

Just Some Kisses

Prior notes: I fuck with your vision! So I did something short cause how could I not work with that even though this was not originally a request.

Pairing: Bi-Han x Gn reader

Warnings ‼️: Suggestive hehe

You were feeling extra lovey today. Just the sight of your boyfriend made you all giggly and your heart warm up like a cast iron on a hot Arizona day in July. Okay, maybe not that hot but you get the picture. Fresh baked cookies kind of warm. Yeah, that’s better.

You were practically skipping over to Bi-Han’s office where you strolled in all innocently. He didn’t look up but he knew it was you walking in. Usually you would sit next to him or anywhere else in his office when you came to spend time with him. Nope. Today was different. Your seat would be Bi-Han himself.

You came closer to Bi-Han and started straddling his lap. You caught him by surprise. This was the first time you ever did this. He’s not complaining surprisingly.

He was about to question you until he felt your lips on his face. All over his face actually. You were leaving kisses wherever you could as you held his face in a loving manner. His cheeks, forehead, nose, chin, even neck. You didn’t see it but Bi-Han was starting to blush. Awww he likes it.

He didn’t know what to do with his hand. No one has ever done this to him or given him this much attention. His hands were gripping the arms of his chair while you were kissing his neck. You heard him make a low growling noise that you took as a sign of delight. You were right but he was also struggling to contain himself.

When you started making out with him that was the hardest part for Bi-Han. Feeling your soft lips against his was pleasurable torture especially once you slipped your tongue into his mouth. Your hands were feeling him up. One hand was sliding down his chest while the other went to his hair, letting his hair down from its once tight bun. Damn! This felt too fantastic for him. Your fingers running through his hair was the final nail in the coffin. You felt his hands grab onto you and squeezed you gently. He let out a groan before tearing his face away from you.

“What’s wrong? Did I do something?” You asked innocently.

Oh you sure did do something.

Bi-Han pushed you down on his lap more and you finally felt his hard on. How the heck did you miss his bulge?! You saw how embarrassed Bi-Han was. He was all hot and bothered, not very used to being kissed, touched, and loved this much. You didn’t even mean to get him started like this. The man was really struggling to hold himself back. He froze the arms of the chair trying to contain himself. But now that you know…ah fuck it!

With one arm he picked you up while the other arm swept his desk clean of anything. Every paper and writing utensil fell to the ground. He placed you on his desk, pressing himself against you. Now you’re the priority. The work can wait, he can’t. He’s all horned up and ready to go! Don’t make him wait any longer after you teased him like that.

You didn’t even mean it but okay, go off I guess.

Well, hope you have fun—oh my gosh

Oh damn is he gonna pay to fix your clothes?

Wow, i didn’t know you were that flexible!

I’ve never seen that position before WHEN DID HE LEARN THAT?!

You two are making a lot of noise…oh…he wants that…cool.

The desk is squeaking HAVE SOME MERCY!

Woah! Alright! That’s a lot that came out!

You uh…you need a tissue? Or some Bounty paper towels? A towel actually?

He definitely was touched starved, ohhh mighty.

After notes: You spat this vision out at me. I’m more of a tea vision kind of person but coffee visions work too.

[cutekittenlady]

Actually yknow what would be fun to see in Earthspark?

Wheeljack and Ratchets classic friendship combined Drift and Ratchets relationship from IDW.

I mean imagine Wheeljack making it back to Cybertron, meeting up with his old buddy Ratchet, and spending a lot of time catching up on all kinds of things. Wheeljack even finds out Ratchets been conjunxed! Wow!

He's super happy for his old friend and is eager to meet the lucky bot who won the old medic over. Though Ratchet proves resistent to tell him who it is until Wheeljack "adjusts" to the changes on Cybertron and he can explain some stuff.

Wheeljack is a bit weirded out, but figures Ratchets just being shy.

After a bit of time who should Wheeljack run into?

That fragging Decepticon killer DEADLOCK. He might have a new painjob and have swords now but its definitely him!

After trying, and failing, to drive him off or otherwise capture him Ratchet of all bots winds up intervening and nearly gets hit!

What the heck Ratchet!

Wait... Is that Ratchet helping Deadlock up??? Whats going on?!

Its at that point that Wheeljack gets the laborious explanation about Drift (formerly Deadlock) having swapped sides while he was gone. He wound up working with Ratchet a lot, and after an inital bit of arguing one thing led to another and... well...

Needless to say Wheeljack is shooketh. He WANTS to be supportive but.. Deadlock?! SERIOUSLY?!

⊗ superhero cartoons to watch when little!!! (or big, they're that good imo!!) ⊗

✧.* i've been wanting to make this list for a while now, mainly because i wanna talk about my fav cartoons/open up opportunities for other littles to find something awesome to watch!!! there's gonna be a lot of ranges in age ratings to add some variety for older/younger littles :)

✧.* also, i'd like to put a disclaimer here and say that a lot of these are on streaming services that i own, but other littles may not. i would also like to say that there are ways to get around a paywall if you can't afford certain streaming services!!! you can find full episodes on youtube/other sites for free!!! (just use an adblocker if you're on a site other than youtube if u can!!)

✧.* another disclaimer: any regressor of any age can watch any of these shows!! i just wanted to put the age ratings for those who want to stick to media that's more in their age range!! so, don't feel like you have to limit yourself from watching certain shows just because of how old you regress to!!

✧.* spectacular spider-man (2008-2009, 2 seasons): suitable for 7-8+, but i'd say it'd be okay for littles who regress younger to watch, too!! honestly, my all-time favorite spider-man cartoon!!! not only is it fun to watch while little, you can truly appreciate the show when you're big, too!!! josh keaton's voicework as spider-man is just- ahhhh it's so amazing imo!! the story is really good, the animation/style is just so iconic, and the colors are very easy on the eyes!!! (especially if you're sensitive to bright colors when little/in general) absolute banger of a theme song, too!!!

✧.* x-men: the animated series (1992-1997, 5 seasons): rated for around 7-8+, but i do admit that there can be some scary scenes for especially younger/more sensitive littles. honestly, this show is great!!! i loved all the different story arcs, how colorful the show is, the characters themselves- a lot of cool stuff about this show!!! be warned, there's a sudden drop in quality during season 5... i think they switched animation studios/va's or something because season 5 is NOT the best season of the show, i'll tell you that... 0_0

✧.* x-men '97 (2024-present, 1 season so far): rated for 14+, so this show is more suitable for teen regressors. it's a continuation of x-men:tas, and oh man... this is it. my favorite cartoon of all time!!! the animation is just oh so beautiful!!! the fight scenes are awesome!!! the soundtrack- oh golly the soundtrack!!! the remastered x-men:tas opening is just- wow!!! but, there's definitely reasons why it's rated 14+... not gonna spoil anything, but there's a lot of scenes in the show that can be upsetting for younger littles. trust me, watching some scenes when you're little is just- too much sometimes... (speaking from experience) it's an amazing show, but watch at ur own risk if you're a younger regressor!!!

✧.* batman: the animated series (1992-1995, 4 seasons): i'd say it's for around ages 9-10+, since it can be fairly dark at times. (same goes for a lot of batman related media!!) honestly, this show's pretty good!!! the style of the show is very dark visually, so it's easy on the eyes for those with bright color sensitivities!!! the artstyle itself is also very nice to look at!!! the voicework is amazing as well, especially kevin conroy's (rip) performance as batman himself!!! from what i can remember, the plotpoints were also pretty on-par!! i remember liking the show a lot when i was a kid!! :)

✧.* hulk vs. wolverine (not a show but an animated movie, 2009): this one's rated pg-13, since there's depictions of violence. but, i gotta say- this movie had me hyped up when i watched it as a kid!!! this was part of a straight to video two-movie collection, (the other being "hulk vs. thor") and i gotta say... this movie was awesome!!! the fight scenes were rad as heck, the animation was amazing, even deadpool was in the movie!!! (which, fun fact, was his first appearance in animation!!! other than the 2 second cameo in x-men:tas) very fun movie!!!

✧.* these are just some recommendations!!! i really liked these when i was a kid, and i hope you'll like them too, if you decide to watch them!!!

✧.* (also yay!! finally have a new banner!!! + i updated my blog's theme because nightcrawler is so awesome and he's literally my cg guys!!! he said it himself :3)

taking insp from licorice mv

monsterfucking, somnophilia, non-con to dub-con to consensual, stockholm syndrome

you the monster (any kind of but werewolf is good) and the aespa HQ have put a bounty mission on you, the girls agree to capture you together but then our silly ningning thinks she can handle you and she insist to go alone despite the other girls stop her but eventually they let her go anyways.

later that night she go on pursuit the mission and break in your house, she look around your house and see its looking too comfy for a monster and then she stumble with you, you in your human form and her have a lil fight in your house (ill take this as a foreplay like in the mv for lil fun) but suddenly you shove her and ran away from her- ningning confused why would you do that and follow you behind just as you on the floor in pain slowly transform and howling- wow ningning you can choose anyday to go but you go on the FULL MOON DAY?

she watch you transform into a werewolf in fear as she know she needs to go now but its was too late! the werewolf you dash to her and grab her back- ningning thoughts she gonna die but no you were the horny type of werewolf in full moon as you grab her tiny body and start tearing her heroine costume.

ningning uses all of her strength and power to blast on you but none work except you gettin more angrier, your tongue all over her body licking her neck then down to her cunt. ningning closed her eyes try to lean away but then she peaking a little trying to think whats next to do but the first thing hit her eyes is your huge cock her eyes widen and shock because yours definitely bigger than her dildo back the HQ. after awhile of your oral testing on her body you finally want to be inside her when she understand what you gon do next she immediately yell out loud and whining “ahhh!! no no no dont put it in my body thats too big i cant take it!” while trying her best to hit you get out of your grip but you’re too strong holding her waist down the couch as you enter her (at least you do it gently) then start to fucking her cunt, it was seriously hurt her wall a lot at first but by time it turn to pleasure and she slowly loves it, you sit on the couch as she warp her arms around your shoulders and bounces on your cock, climb down and on her knees taking your cock in her hands trying to stroke it with both of them, yours is too big for her mouth so she can only lick the skin and put the head in her mouth and stroke your base with two hands i swear this is the sloppiest bj ever with her spit all over your cock and the flopping noises while doing it, it going for the whole night even after the full moon end you two didn’t stop yet? even when nini already exhausted with your cum filled in her womb- you’re not tired and haven’t turn back to human yet so you just keep going grabbing her legs spread open and just fucking her and nini didn’t mind at all she let you it and pass out.

phone ringing, ningning pick it up and the other line voices scold her “ningning! where the hell have you been? it’s been 3 days! you haven’t come back to the HQ yet since that mission! are you okay???!” it was her teammate also big sis giselle. “oh unnie? hehe sorry i forgot to call you back to reporting mission but im fine unnie” she talks with a giddy tone while stirring the pot of soup she make this morning for her new “lover” and her for breakfast. “gosh nini we were worried the heck out… everyone in HQ were trying to connect with you the last three days but where the hell are you?”. “oh me! unnie dont worry im safe and happy~ im actually in that werewolf house unnie~ shes very nice i think its a misunderstanding to put bounty on her~ anyways im kinda busy now bye sis dont worry about me im fine i love you~ and say hello to the other aespa and say i love you to them too okie bye~”. ningning hang up as she put her phone aside and continue to cook breakfast as you come in the kitchen and grind behind her ass for next session in the kitchen (your cock in your human form is still big and double it in your monster form).

back to the HQ, giselle karina and winter relieve and glad ningning is still alive but they think its so unusual when ningning stay back at the monster house? they think maybe ningning got hypnotized or brainwashed so they agree to go to your house together to rescue nining…. but they didnt know the truth or should i say you gonna fuck them one by one and make then realize why ningning being such a silly heroine with you?

-N

another one of those situations i have not much to say because you everything-

love silly ning so much she’s so dear to me. i love to think of her not staying with you but instead going back to the HQ, refusing to talk about it and the girls are so worried but as the weeks go by she keeps sneaking out late at night, carrying food for you and other things, so excited to spent some good time by your place. really awkward when the girls pressure her into telling what the fuck is going on and she’s like “okay i’m fucking that werewolf girl we supposed to kill 😕 she nice i promise” WORSE when she brings you to meet them and she’s all smiles and you and the girls are tense as fuck because they don’t trust you and you don’t either.

[asliceofzosan]

new au idea on the brain that i think i might do because it's fun:

a series of letters sanji writes to zeff. can be in canon divergent universe or a different historical au. heck it could even be modern where it's like instead of sending texts or emails, sanji just prefers to sit for hours writing out details of his life the past few months until his hand cramps and chopper is scolding him about carpal tunnel. whatever the universe, sanji always writes a long letter to zeff to update him while he's away from the baratie.

at some point, sanji starts to write about this "annoying piece of shit mosshead that won't leave me the fuck alone" and at first zeff just reads a few paragraphs here and there of sanji complaining about mosshead (he doesn't write down the name). it goes on like that for maybe a couple months, close to a year.

zeff only learns the mosshead's name after some really life-altering event where sanji writes pages upon pages of being so scared that he lost zoro (wow so thats his name) and imagining a life without him was freaking him the fuck out. now the paragraphs sanji writes about zoro after that are less of complaining about him (though that never actually stops), and a lot on little things sanji notices about zoro. how he takes his coffee, how he spreads like a starfish when he sleeps, the number of haphazard stitches on his chest, etc etc. zeff learns so much about zoro without ever seeing his face.

and zeff can read it all, how sanji slowly but surely describes his daily life with zoro, and how his idiot of a son was denying his feelings through pen and paper. there are a lot more scratched out words and ripped pages in his recent letters. probably because he wrote down something he wasn't willing to admit yet. not really. but what else can zeff do but read his son's letters and write back with anecdotes of his own?

one day, zeff receives his usual letter from sanji. but it's shorter than the rest. no. not just shorter. it's just two sentences.

old man, i think i'm in love. i think you know who it is.

and zeff knows. zeff always knows.

[sazuka57]

No actually I’m mad enough about it to speak up.

This new trend of judging ppl for making AUs upon AUs for their blorbos instead of making ocs or filing the serial numbers off is annoying af.

I wrote for ocs for 6 years (probably closer to 8, but I digress). Do you know how lonely it is writing for ocs? No one wants to read it. No one cares about it. I had exactly one person who consistently liked or even interacted with my posts and they’d do it as support, without actually reading any of my work. I wrote over a thousand pages of “original fic” and only one 90 page story got any attention and that was only because I promoted the heck out of it. The rest? Nothing. So much nothing that I just stopped posting. Kept writing, but stopped posting—because no one was reading it!

Not to mention—fanfics have a lot of sites to post on. You’ve got wattpad you’ve got ao3 you’ve got ffn you’ve got tumblr etc etc. But for original work? Uhhhh maybe tumblr. Maybe some obscure site that has probably a hundred users trying to make their story pay to read. That’s it. There’s no easily accessible platform for these things.

And also! LET PEOPLE HAVE THEIR FUN. Like this is legit the new kind of cringe culture? “Wow thinking about the blorbos in another au, so cringe. Make your own ocs loser.” Like. Stop it. Some people don’t wanna make ocs. Some people don’t wanna file off the serials. They just wanna create for the love and fun of their blorbos.

So just. Stop it. Just stop. Stop judging people about having harmless fun. If you wanna do ocs, good for you. Have fun with your ocs! Create! Spark that joy!!

And if you wanna keep using your blorbos, then good for you! Make that 36478162 AU. Let it spark joy!!! Real life works hard to suck joy out of all of us, so do what makes YOU happy.

Oh wow, I was not expecting a whole drawing of them trying the dance and falling around. It's very beautifully done, I rmmbr just staring in awe for a while at first 🩵

I have another odd question about the she trio/ass gang, which u don't have to draw

Cause I saw a little video of Harvey going hard; dancing to MiseryxCPR(xReese's Puffs) and it had me laughing for a long while, and I wondered who would be the ones singing the song if say the stardrop saloon had some kind of karaoke night

My head tells me both Sam and Abagail would end up doing Reeses's puffs, but that would leave one of the other songs without a host :/

Harvey would probably end up saying stuff about how cpr doesn't require mouth-to-mouth anymore or smthn, and Shane probably worried Marnie would walk in-or just, too drunk off his ass having fun to care 🤔

nah man i just have to draw them. and oh look I even have another essay under readmore! 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

✨Also my commissions are open! ✨ if anyone is interested! :D< please reblog/share the og comm sheet ,if you can! it would help me a lot thank you!!!

Honestly i can imagine them all just being pissed drunk before attempting to sing the song��. i know fersure the SHE trio would require more liquid courage for it (heck even to join/start a kareoke sesh!)

Shane gives of major Kareoke Tito (uncle) vibes~. Yknow that one tito who specifically sings “My Way” by Frank Sinatra and has a bunch of classic rock songs under his belt. He’s not good at singing perse but he can at least carry a tune. He and Sebastian would totally connect with singing Misery. but like Shane vaguely knows the song (he’s heard it on radio a bajillion times but he doesnt know the name of the song so its not quite on his playlists) so he when he’s super sloshed and can barely read the screen, he tries to sing it from memory and misses a couple of the words. but hey! at least he knows the chorus and is in tune.

Meanwhile Sebastian has Misery “secretly” on his go to playlist. He doesnt admit it (the songs is too main stream and overplayed but he stumbled upon a vocaloid cover and rest is history.) He definitely always chooses the song every kareoke sesh (although not his first choice) and he’s passionate about it even has a little performance too(lots of head bangs, fist pumps and that classic 2000s disney knees bent together, feet wide apart moment)! For his duet with shane he’s the first to shed a lil tear and that gets shane going and they cry through most of the song in their own lil misery world ignoring the chaos around them.

Sam is a fucking menace for singing CPR and I do agree He and Abigail would go off on Reese’s Puff BUT i can definitely imagine being commited to singing CPR (we all know he’d awkwardly twerk). Especially if it was to troll on Harvey who probably thought it was a wholesome song about doing CPR at a specific BPM. 😂

Harvey good lird poor harvey! He’s probably the most sober out of everyone. It doesnt help that he’s no light weight + lowkey becomes designated baby sitter everytime (he’s soooooooo going charge them extra in the morning if they come stumbling into his clinic asking for some hangover cure). He was so excited about adding a new song to CPR tempo list he was gonna teach at the nex first aid classes!! Who would have thought that a singer with a cute wholesome name like Cupcakke was just so… sooooo SCANDALOUS!!! He should have known Sam was up to something the moment he grabbed him by the shoulder!!! “This is medical malpractice, Samson!!!” He spends the whole trying to sush Sam who’s having so much fun laughing at Harvey’s reaction 😂

Abigal. F e r a l.

Help! Elliot has fallen over! He honestly just has a mild peanut allergy but he has been drinking and hooo boi. thats not good. thank goodness Harvey is sobered up (with the help of Sam ofc) and has an epipen on hand! Catch Leah cackling from her seat by the bar before assisting Harvey.

can u do qiu and tamarack with an MC who LOVES to bake/cook but since theres not enough people in their house to eat it all of what they make most the time, they'll just knock on their doors like "do you want cookies? I just took them out the oven." or something

Author’s Note: Hi! I hoped you enjoy this, I have recently been getting into baking so this should be a fun write for me!

Pairing(s): Qiu Lin x MC and Tamarack Baumann x MC

🍪🧈🥄

QIU LIN 📝

Heck yeah! Free food!

When you first came into the problem of baking too much to eat, you were stumped

And when you expressed that to your dear friend, Qiu. They instantly volunteered as tribute to be a taste tester.

They want them as fresh as possible so they would probably just wait around your house or watch you bake them.

I don’t think they would help much other than passing you ingredients and maybe stirring the batter.

Only to get a lick of the batter

Of course, it's not because they don’t want to help or anything like that, they just know that you probably enjoy handling it on your own and being in your element without having some nerd ask them to go through the steps for the tenth time.

They get super excited when you try out a new pastry or recipe and have them be the very first to try it.

It feels like an exclusive event every time they get to be the first to try something of yours.

I headcanon that Qiu is kind of hopeless in the kitchen, preferring to just go to the diner or their parents if they want something.

They burn water so it’s mesmerized to watch you bake something from scratch.

I like to think that for a special occasion, they might try and bake you something either from scratch or a box mix!

“Wow! Did you bake this all for me? You’re so nice!”

Tamarack Baumann🍁

Gets PUMPED when finding this out!

Thinks this is something you can add to your guys’ tea parties! What's not better than some tea with homemade cookies and bread?

It’s like an actual fancy tea party now! :0

Tamarack isn’t super picky, but does appreciate variety! She encourages you to try out a bunch of different recipes regardless of the difficulty level.

Like, what do you mean you can’t make macaroons? You’re a master baker, you could try!

She doesn’t want you to be the only one pulling your weight to supply these tea parties, she will be bringing lots of teas and little stuff to put on them, like milk and honey!

Tamarack is crafty so I see her making you a little apron and custom mittens with while wonky, cute embroidery of your name!

This inspires her to make more stuff like a chef's hat which leads her down a sewing rabbit hole.

She eats most of what you bring her but she also likes inviting you inside to give them to her Omi and Opa!

She doesn’t care too much about the freshness of the cookies but she also enjoys watching you bake.

The energetic girl needs some downtime too and watching you bake is soothing to her.

I read your rewrite of Chapter 2 (which was great, by the way) and would like to clarify some things. Of course, you wrote that the fixes were just you exploring possibilities, so you don't need to justify anything if you don't want to. 1. How would Leona join the investigation? Correct me if I am wrong, but Leona didn't seem to know about Yuu and co. until Riddle and Qater confronted Ruggie. For him to know about them so soon, someone (like an injured Savanaclaw student or a Savanaclaw student who overheard Yuu and co. questioning others) would need to let him know. Even then, would he be able to join without looking suspicious? 2. How does Leona plan to frame Diasomnia and get it to stick? He can point fingers all he wants and use the circumstantial evidence they gather to prove it, but Diasomnia has no reason to sabotage others when they have Malleus. Leona would most likely be aware of Crowley's biases, so is he just hoping casting enough suspicion would force Crowley's hand? Does he intend to convince students from other dorms to demand their disqualification despite the lack of motive?

[Referencing this post!]

Wow, people are still reading that?? 😭

As I said in the original post, my book 2 rewrite was more of a compilation of shower thoughts without much care given to fleshing out the finer details. It is by no means perfect, nor is it meant to cover everything.

There’s enough wiggle room left for various different interpretations using my book 2 rewrite as a basis. It’s meant to be flexible!

Just for fun, here are my thoughts:

To your first point, I don’t think Leona would come off as suspicious if his introduction was framed a certain way (which I’m sure he could plan around). Yuu and co. would be investigating all the dorms (since they’re all suspects), which includes Savanaclaw students. Leona could easily hear it from Savanaclaw mobs and then reintroduce himself to the group, claiming he also wants in on the investigation to seek justice for his injured students. Since Riddle is already investigating with Yuu, Leona could easily use that to distract from his true intentions. He would come off as just another pissed dorm leader trying to stand up for and avenge his dorm members. (And if we really want to get technical, we could reason the other dorm leaders are not getting involved due to other reasons, like Azul being busy with the inter-dorm event organization, Jamil not trusting anyone with Kalim but himself, Vil preoccupied with his professional gigs, Idia being Idia, and no one knowing where the heck Malleus has wandered off to now.)

To your second point, I think Leona definitely has the capacity to trick/manipulate other students into believing Diasomnia is responsible. He could set up situations which incriminate certain Diasomnia students (based on their unique skillsets), then leave the other dorms’ students to come to their own (false) conclusions based on that. Obviously, it would look too suspicious if he and Savanaclaw students are the only ones pointing fingers, so he has to convince the others to parrot the rhetoric he wants them to. If it was done this way, we achieve many things: 1) Leona comes off as way more intelligent than in the original book 2, 2) it sets up more parallels between him and Jamil (who also tried to get a lot of people to side with him under false pretenses to convince someone of higher authority to change their mind) for delicious book 6 payoff, and 3) it adds to the sense of betrayal the other students experience at the end when it turns out Leona deceived them.

Something I feel that the main story fails to do well is to define the rivalries between each dorm. It’s only mentioned a few times off-handedly, like how Octavinelle and Scarabia students are intelligent and are thus always neck and neck in terms of grades. In my revised book 2, an opportunity arises to utilize this untapped potential. Think about it: what if the other dorm members are more likely to suspect Diasomnia because the main story calls more attention to how the dorms do NOT get along with each other?? Diasomnia is described to us as a place where skilled all-around mages go, and this has resulted in the Diasomnia students being more arrogant than your average NRC student (which by itself is already very arrogant). From that point of view, it’s not too hard to believe that the other students could think Diasomnia is injuring other students “just because they can”. They’ve grown too arrogant and think they can get away with doing whatever they want because they won’t face the consequences of their actions. (Malleus himself is THE poster child of that across multiple events and vignettes too.) There doesn’t necessarily need to be a motive in the traditional sense; people could suspect that Diasomnia has gotten too high and mighty, so they are conceited and feel entitled to doing whatever the hell they want. It would be a perfect way for Leona to weaponize the preexisting animosity and pride of the NRC students against them. The injured students would then feel slighted because Diasomnia are being held up as the metaphorical “golden children” (despite their theoretical unethical behavior) while their suffering is looked over. These feelings ironically also parallel how Scar feels cheated of the throne because of his careless older brother and son, or even how the hyenas are not seen as part of the Pridelands.

Restless nights

Grayson POV

It's almost 2 A.m. and I can't sleep.

In reality I'm used to it by now. Hawthorne insomnia is something I struggle with on a weekly basis but with this being night 5 of no sleep I've had enough.

Sighing with exasperation, I reach for my phone charging on the nightstand beside me. I try not to go to my phone when I have sleeping issues, instead relying on meditating music, warm milk, thinking about other things till my brain becomes weary, or take a long hot shower.

As usual, none of those fruitless tactics were working.

I aimlessly scrolled through Tumblr. (Yes, I have an account and yes it's private) I was looking for nothing in particular, just hoping looking at a blue screen for a long time would result in some sleep.

As would have it, my younger brother Jamie was also on Tumblr and active in the last hour. @loverofriddlesandgames could his URL not be more obvious?!

Mine was more discreet. @nonerreta575. Only a select people knew it was me, and I intended to keep it that way.

Seeing Jamie active I contemplated whether I should text him through Tumblr. Maybe he was struggling with insomnia as well. My curiosity got the better of me and I sent him a quick text.

@nonerreta575: You can't sleep either?

Expecting not to get a response, I continued to my aimless scrolling when I got a response.

@Loverofriddlesandgames. Yeah. You too?

@Nonerreta575: Unfortunately, yes. It's 2 A.M. and I don't see myself falling asleep anytime soon.

@Loverofriddlesandgames. Aww. Poor you.

@nonerreta575: You can laugh. But you won't be if it's night 5 for you with no sleep.

@loverofriddlesandgames: Maybe you should go keep Xander company. He'll talk so much you'll fall asleep from boredom.

I would have scolded him if I hadn't already thought of that option. Xander did have that about him. No offense.

@nonerreta575: I have already thought of that but decided against it.

@loverofriddlesandgames. Seriously? I was joking when I said that.

@nonerreta575: Seriously.

@loverofriddlesandgames: Wow! I guess you are desperate. But don't fear I could think of a few ideas. And luckily we live in the same house.

I didn't like this was going. Groaning, I replied:

@nonerreta575. I'm going to regret asking this, but what were thinking?

I couldn't almost see his smirk as he typed out:

@loverofriddlesandgames: What about Dare Uno?

What the heck?!

2 hours later, 50 games of Dare Uno and taking why too many dares and way more uno cards later, and I was officially tuckered out. We got Xander to join in on the mischief in the old game room.

"This was so much fun!" Xander squealed in delight. "I hate that it was at Gray's expense of not sleeping, but we should do 2 A.M. Uno more often."

"I think I will pass." I replied. Yawning, I collapsed in the most ungraceful way on a nearby couch. I barely noticed Jameson throwing a blanket over me as my eyes finally closed, and I fell blissfully asleep.

A//N Hey!! So.... it's actually 2 A.M. where I am and guess what? I can't sleep! I was talking with my best friend @riddles-n-games and the conversation we were having had me thinking of Grayson and Jameson having a very similar conversation.

Want to guess who was Grayson and who was Jameson in this scenario?🤭

Anyways, I sneakily incorporated a lot of our conversation on to Grayson and Jameson and I hope you like it.

[cozyveee]

Welcome to the FIRST ever (Drumroll) COZY UPDATE!.... Similar to the famous "UTDR Newsletters" Toby sends out every few months, I'll be showing and talking about a buncha stuff I've made!

Starting with...

"Wait a minute," you murmur to yourself. "This isn’t the DELTARUNE Chapters 3–5 content I wanted and expected... What the heck?! I want a refund!" Well hush now, little dove. Patience is key. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJPVuBpq5XY

I've recently made a song for DELTAFELL: Fallen Legend and it got a whopping 3 thousand views! Wow... If those views were eggs, you could make like 750 quiches out of them. That's something to think about. I made a drawing of my favorite already been shown enemy from DELTAFELL as an egg.

NEXT: This is for my super epic and cool Underfell take that despite me never talking about it, has a substantial amount of work done on it! If you're interested in seeing more, just remember... I am too!

Unfortunately, I don't have much I want to show for chapter 3 right now, but I will show this scrapped character.

I scrapped this chapter 3 secret boss because it is super weird and unoriginal. Oh well, that's just how mid 1990's video games go I guess.

Chapter 4 has had a LOT of things completed! It has a large Light World section that is really interesting and fun, and I can't wait to show more!

There are multiple games to play and activities to do when you're home for the holidays! (Don't mind the cursed Susie concept...)

With all this said, I'll plan on making 1 of these every 2 months or so! See you next year!

·͙*̩̩͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩̥͙Fluffmas day 7: Holiday party w/Tamaki Amajiki*̩̩̥͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩͙‧͙

Word count: 3.3k, Gender-Neutral reader

Classes 3-A and 3-B were hosting a christmas party in UA’s gymnasium. All invited and encouraged to go as the festive holiday season approached closer and closer. Mirio and Neijire had begged both of you to attend, even with Tamaki's shyness and distaste for such large parties, they knew he’d go as long as you did.

Christmas has always been a fun time for you, although this year was even better because you got to spend it with your friends, and Tamaki, obviously. You walked into the gym and saw that it had been completely decked out in Christmas decorations. Everything looked almost like it was out of a magazine. "Oh wow, they really went all out this year…." Tamaki murmured quietly.

You glanced around with a soft smile on your face, the illumination and smell of food gauging your senses. “They did, didn't they?”

Tamaki nodded, sticking close to you as he felt his heart pound. He was not good around large groups or very festive events, and it showed a lot. Tamaki glanced around at the decorations. Sure, it was pretty, but to him it was a bit overstimulating. So many lights and noises. He was going to pass out from overstimulation, he just knew it. Tamaki leaned into you slightly to hide his face from everyone.

"I'm going to die…" He muttered into the crook of your neck. Mirio and Nejire were both there already. You could see them over in the corner setting up the music. Mirio seemed to cheer when he saw you guys and he made a beeline for you.

"Hey!" Mirio said as he approached the two of you. He threw his arms around both of you and pulled you close. "Glad you both came!" He chirped.

You chuckle at his enthusiasm, “Sure did, Mirio! It looks awesome so far”

"Heck yeah! Everyone pitched in with decorating, including the students from the other classes." Mirio took his arms off of the two of you and looked over at Tamaki, who was standing there silently. His eyes were darting around to take in everything that was going on.

"You alright there, Tamaki?" Mirio asked teasingly.

You grasp your hand within Tamaki's slightly sweaty one. “Just being himself, parties are a bit much but he's strong” You nudge him softly.

Tamaki's cheeks puffed out a bit as you nudged him, and he looked back at you. He looked at your interlocked hands and his heart started to beat faster. His hand squeezed yours just a little more.

Mirio chuckled and patted Tamaki on the back, which made him tense a little. Mirio knew how Tamaki was with big audiences. "Just relax, alright? This is gonna be super fun!"

Tamaki took a deep breath and nodded. His hand continued to hold yours, as if it were a lifeline that he desperately needed. "Alright…." He murmured. His eyes darted to the side as more people started to fill in. It seemed most of the students from both classes were here, increasing Tamaki's rising anxiety.

You pull his hand in the direction of the food, urging him on. “Wanna grab something to eat, Tama?”

He looked back at you and nodded. As the two of you made your way over to the snack table, Tamaki had been on edge, still taking in everything. His eyes darted from person to person, till they landed on the table filled with food. He let go of your hand and grabbed something random to eat, taking a bite without even looking at it. The anxiety was obvious in his face.

You pick a plate up, filling it with various items before looking up at him, “See anything you want?” Tamaki was chewing on whatever he had just put in his mouth. He was starting to relax a little, but his eyes were still darting all over the room. He looked down at your plate, and then at the table.

"I uh. I don't know…" He responded with a little shrug. He seemed overwhelmed by all of the choices. It wasn't surprising, Tamaki wasn't the best at decision-making when he was on edge like this.

You nod in understanding, looking at the yummy food displayed upon the long table ahead of you. You begin picking up a few things you knew he liked, even some sweet treats along the way.

His eyes immediately went to the treats you had pulled off. His head lifted and his eyes seemed to light up a little. He perked up some. Mirio walked over to the two of you and leaned his elbow on Tamaki's shoulder. Tamaki flinched a little at the sudden contact. "You doing ok there, bud?" He asked Tamaki, chuckling a little.

Tamaki nodded silently and looked up at Mirio. He shifted under the added weight of Mirio resting on him. He had still been on edge, but the addition of sweets you were now holding seemed to have improved the situation.

"I'm fine.." He mumbled, his eyes going back to the room. People were having a good time. Music was playing, and many were now dancing.

Mirio looked out at the room as well. A giant grin crossed his face as several students were all in the center of the room dancing. He chuckled and looked back at the two of you. "Looks like people are really enjoying themselves." He commented. "You two gonna get out there and dance?"

You look at Mirio with a fast nod, mouth filled with one of the homemade christmas cookies. Mirio chuckled, looking at you for a moment before his gaze moved to Tamaki.

"How about you, Tamaki? You gonna hit the dance floor?" He questioned, looking back over the room again. Tamaki's eyes followed him before he looked back at the two of you. His cheeks were a bit red and his heart was starting to pound.

"I uh…" Tamaki shifted and looked at the dance floor. People were crowded in the center of the room, jumping and dancing around. It looked chaotic, the type of thing Tamaki avoided as often as he could. After a couple more seconds of looking, he timidly shook his head.

Mirio hummed and patted Tamaki on the back again. He wasn't surprised that Tamaki wasn't going to join. Tamaki wasn't exactly one for parties, or dancing. There was nothing wrong with that. "Yeah, I figured." Mirio said, chuckling a little. He then looked over at your stuffed plate of food. "Damn, Y/N. Are you planning on feeding an army with that plate of snacks?”

You wave him off, “Its for me and Tama, easier than coming back and forth”

Mirio chuckled again, crossing his arms and looking at you with a smile. "Well damn, you two can eat a lot then." He laughed again, then looked at Tamaki. Tamaki had started to look at the dance floor again. A look of contemplation crossed his face, as if he were actually thinking about going out there and joining the others…

Mirio chuckled once more and ruffled Tamaki's hair, which caused him to go stiff and look up at the blond haired boy in annoyance, though it was without malice. Mirio chuckled at the look on Tamaki's face, and patted him on the head again, before pulling his hand back.

"I'm gonna go see what Nejire is up to. You guys have fun, alright?"

You give him a thumbs up before walking back into Tamaki's vicinity. “Hey Tama, i got a couple snacks, wanna find a seat?”

Tamaki nodded and looked back at you. He looked a little less on edge now, the sweet treats you had got him calmed him down by a long mile. He looked nervous when he saw how many snacks you had gotten through, but he figured it was just more for both of you.

"Yeah… that sounds good.." He said quietly. Tamaki was ready to get away from the dance floor.

The two of you found a spot to eat near the back of the gym in your own bubble. Tamaki sat next to you, leaning towards you a little so your thighs were just touching. Some light chatter here and there as the sound of faint christmas music filled the air. Neijire, ever her bubbly self, was heading your direction with a large wave. “Hey Hey!”

You waved back, Tamaki giving her a curt nod. “Wanna come to the dance floor with me, Y/N?” She took your hands in hers, looking down at you expectantly.

You raise your brows at her question. “I mean- yeah sure I can dance! Would you like to come, Tama?” You look back to your indigo-haired boyfriend.

Tamaki's eyes widened. He immediately looked down. He was not a dancer, although he supposed he could dance with you… But it made his heart pound. He was anxious at just the thought. "I…I don't know…." He murmured quietly, his voice almost too low to even be heard over the music.

You leaned your head down to meet him, a soft look in your eyes as you pleaded. “Please?”

Tamaki's head quickly snapped up. His face was a hint pink and his heart had picked up the pace. Tamaki's eyes darted all over your face. Could he really say no? Not when you were looking at him like that… He looked back down again and took a deep breath, steeling himself. "…Okay…"

Your grinned seemed to widen at his compliance, taking his slightly shaky hand in yours and standing up. Tamaki stood up, taking a second to make sure he was balanced. He let you pull him over to the dance floor. The music was loud, and there were a lot of people, which made Tamaki's anxiety rise. He clutched your hand a little tighter as he was led onto the floor.

Once all of you were on the floor, the music seemed to pump even louder. People danced around and were jumping up and down like they'd drunk too much caffeine. They all looked like they were having a lot of fun. That didn't stop Tamaki from looking nervous though. He kept holding your hand tight, his eyes darting around to make sure he wasn't in the way of anyone.

Mirio had followed along with you guys, passing out the festive headbands that everyone had seemed to adorn. Mirio handed you and Tamaki a headband each. Tamaki looked at and raised a brow, unsure of what to do with it. "What are these for?" He asked Mirio, holding the headband in his other hand while keeping the other tightly latched to your hand.

Mirio chuckled as he saw Tamaki raise his brow. It was almost like he was a little lost.

"You put it on. Just like everyone else." He said, pointing at the other people on the dance floor. Lots of them were adorned with some fun holiday headbands.

Tamaki looked surprised at that. He looked at you as if asking if he should really put one on. His eyes were nervous, but there was a hint of childlike wonder in there, probably due to all of the Christmas cheer.

You grin childishly and put yours on. It was a set of reindeer antlers with Christmas lights dangling around them. Tamaki smiled slightly. It was hard not to smile when you were so excited. He looked at his own headband for a second before putting it on his head. It was a simple Santa hat, white and covered in fluff and fake snow.

You look at him and smile gleefully, fixing the headband to accommodate his hair. “Looks cute on you, Tama!”

Tamaki's cheeks went a little red as you fixed the headband for him, your fingers gently running through his hair. Nobody but you got to touch his hair. He was a little shy, but he still thought you were cute when you were so excited.

"Y-you think so…?" He asked quietly, tilting his head slightly so you had better access to his hair.

You nod proudly. “I know so.” You move my hands to meet his, swaying them a bit to the upbeat music.

Tamaki smiled and chuckled softly at your response. His hands held yours comfortably even if the movement was a little awkward, but his heart was beating rapidly. You two were in the middle of a crowded dance floor, but Tamaki was only really paying attention to you.

Mirio chuckled at the two of you, watching you two as he continued to dance with Neijire. Tamaki was clearly just fine with you leading the dancing. Tamaki relaxed more as you two both got comfortable and found your footing. He was less stiff than he originally was as he started to get into the beat and really start dancing. He was timid with his movements and seemed to hesitate every now and then, but that was just how he was.

"Y-you’re really good at this…" He said with a hint of amazement, watching your fast footwork.

You shake your head in defiance. “I'm just happy to be here with you, Tama. It's much more fun when you're around”

Tamaki's cheeks reddened a little more. It was sweet that you said that, and it made his chest ache. He felt the same way. He squeezed your hand a little closer as you continued to dance together.

"Yeah… I'm having more fun than I thought I would…"

You leaned in, giving his relaxed form a much more proper hug. Tamaki hugged you back without missing a beat. He held you close in his arms, the loud music and dancing people seemed to become background noise. The only thing that really mattered was being with you in that moment.

Several songs into the dancing, Tamaki was starting to get tired. It was a lot of movement, and Tamaki's stamina wasn't the best. He was stubborn though, not wanting to stop. He didn't want to let you down. He pushed himself a bit further, even if he was having trouble catching his breath.

You begin catching your own breath. “Ready to stop? You look as tired as i feel haha”

Tamaki nodded and stopped swaying to the music. His heart was racing in his chest and he could barely speak between breaths. "Hah… Yeah… Yeah, I think I've hit my limit…" He replied, the sentence coming out as chopped up as breaths he was taking in. He chuckled softly. He really overdid it.

Tamaki followed happily as you led him away into a more secluded spot. The farther he got from the crowds the more at ease he looked. There weren't too many people, so he was able to focus more on getting his breathing under control. He leaned against the wall and let out a huff, closing his eyes as he tried to slow his heart down.

You glanced over at his form, the sweat on his brow glinting in the light, almost angelic like. Even his pointed ears were a bit flushed. His hair is messy and sticking to his forehead a little from sweat. His chest rose and fell with every breath he took as he got his breathing under control. He opened his eyes a couple seconds after taking a calming breath. As soon as he opened them, he caught your gaze and blushed slightly.

"What are you looking at..?" He asked. He wasn't actually bothered, it was a lighthearted question.

You blink a couple times before shaking your head. "Nothin…"

Tamaki tilted his head to the side. There was a hint of a smile on his face as he continued to look at you.

"Didn't look like nothing to me." He said, a teasing tone in his voice. It wasn't often that Tamaki teased anyone or was sarcastic. He tended to be too shy, but for some reason he was different around you.

Tamaki continued to smile as he saw your flush, amused that he got that reaction out of you. He chuckled quietly before also leaning back against the wall. The two of you were silent for the first couple moments, just resting quietly while you both tried to get your breath back after all of the dancing.

Tamaki stole a glance at you again, noticing the still-pink cheeks on your face. He smiled a little bigger before looking away again. He was quiet for another moment before speaking again, his voice softer than before.

"Hey.."

“Hey” You mumbled, looking over a thim once more.

Tamaki hesitates for a second but then speaks again. "…You look really pretty right now." He said softly. He was embarrassed, but the words spilled out anyway. His eyes were downcast as he spoke, too shy to look you in the eye.

“Yeah?”

Tamaki nodded and leaned his head back against the wall as he stared up at the ceiling. He was still too shy to directly look at you as he spoke, but he was still smiling. An easy flush covered his cheeks in a rosy tint. He was clearly embarrassed, but he spoke again anyway.

"Yeah.. You're… beautiful…" He murmured. It was true, you were as beautiful as ever. You always were, in his opinion.

You decide to move a bit closer to him, “You are too..”

Tamaki felt a little shiver go up his spine as you pushed into him. It's not that he disliked the closeness, he was just feeling a little out of his comfort zone. Still, it was exciting. His heart beat a little faster in his chest and he chanced a glance down at you, a shy smile on his face.

"C-come on, don't say stuff like that…" He said quietly.

You chuckle, “ ‘M not lyin’!”

Tamaki's breath hitched slightly and his cheeks went even more red. He still refused to look directly down at you, but his heart was racing.

"I-I know you're not… I'm just.." He trailed off. He just wasn't really sure what to say. He wasn't used to being called beautiful, or being complimented the way you were doing now. It gave him a feeling not unlike anxiety and excitement, all mixed into one feeling.

You leaned up, quickly pecking his cheek. “Thanks for comin' with me”

Tamaki's breath hitched once again and his stomach did cartwheels. He was not getting used to this. At least not any time soon, even if you guys had been together for a while, he had never gotten used to it. He stared down at you with wide eyes, his face a deep scarlet. He couldn’t even speak for a couple seconds because he was still processing what you just did.

"I-I… you’re welcome..” He said, the words coming out as a quiet stutter.

You decide to fully lean into him, finding comfort in his hold as you watch everyone mingle. Tamaki kept his eyes on you the entire time as you leaned against him. He relaxed a bit as he got used to your body pressed into his. The adrenaline from the music had settled and Tamaki was getting drowsy. The quiet, dark corner that you two were curled up in was making him sleepier. Tamaki found himself leaning more against you rather than the wall he was leaning against a few minutes before.

There were a couple moments of silence. After Tamaki's head landed on your shoulder, he became utterly still and silent. He was fast asleep, his breathing slow and steady. He was usually a light sleeper, but the combination of a lack of sleep throughout the week and the Christmas party seemed to take its toll on him and he was dead asleep against you. He looked calm and peaceful like that.

You decided not to awake him, his form all too cute in combination with the festive hat he had been gifted. Mirio was not far in the crowd, capturing a photo of the moment as both memories and teasing material for when the indigo-haired boy awoke. Even you were oblivious as you rested your eyes, ingraining the moment into your mind as the music and lights surrounded you both.

looks like i picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines

no no that's a quote from the movie airplane. i tried amphetamines, by prescription, and i know i didn't find them particularly helpful, but i don't remember why. i've spent the last couple of weeks aggressively checked out of reality almost completely lost in my attempts to write a novel about solarpunk tall ships and the hot bisexuals who sail them, and that has been hella fun (i should share a snippet sometime. i will.) but it also means my car is still overdue for inspection and i need to figure out how to pay my physical therapy bill and i have several other urgent tasks piled up plus i still have an enormous quantity of luggage and things i removed from my cabin to winterize it piled in my house's entryway etc. so.

so anyway i've resumed amphetamines, since i had a two-week supply and only took one of them. and we'll see how that goes.

(yeah other friends of mine who've gotten diagnoses have had doctors insist on them monitoring their like, cardiac health or blood pressure with these, and it is slightly surprising to me that nobody has asked me about those things, but on the other hand, i seem to have been fine, so i guess this is ok. i found this guy through my insurance company so this isn't like. well. i don't know. it's the finest supervision i can get through my shitty insurance i guess.)

anyway. tall ships bisexuals is actually going pretty well but extremely disorganizedly. i need to get that under some kind of control.

i bought a stand mixer but haven't gotten it yet.

I also just forgot what i was going to write here, so this is going really well, score another one for the vyvanse. yes yes i'm keeping a comprehensive journal.

wow no really i don't remember where i was going with this. heck! welp. oh yeah no, i've been queueing enormous numbers of political posts and then going back and deleting them as unhelpful, so you're welcome. facebook memories helpfully showed me my post from eight years ago on this topic and mostly i'm like oh wow i was on facebook eight years ago? but if i look, mostly i was not. lol i signed up for facebook almost twenty years ago and decided it was Not For Me almost fifteen years ago and it still sends me twenty emails a day about my friends it's holding hostage, this is kind of amazing. anyway.

well i've been sitting here trying to lure my agitated cat to sit down and kick me out of the recliner, and after literally half an hour it has finally worked. so, off i go to drink like three gallons of water because that is the one thing i remember about being on meth that was really really important. you think "ah i need some more water" and you pour yourself a cup of it and it's gone and you're like "where did that go" so you drink three more cups and then you're like "wow i'm thirsty did i forget to drink water" and you wind up drinking incredible amounts of water and never peeing so. anyway that's a lot easier now that it's winter and i'm living someplace with running water, so. thumbs up.

woof i took a multivitamin and a fish oil capsule at the same time and i can taste that fish oil capsule, well done me =_=
