🌸 HC's about the girlymatsus realizing they have a crush on Fem!Reader? 🌸

Oh we are wlw in this chilis tonight!!!

Osoko highkey freaks out when the realization hits her. Not because she doesn't want to confess or that she can't come to grips with the feeling that she likes you, but that she doesn't know what to SAY. She's always usually so in control of whatever she has going on, but the pounding in her chest she gets when she sees you throws her completely off her game. She's nervous when you guys go to dinner together; like palms sweating, eyes kind of darting everywhere, the whole nine. You eventually have to pry her confession out of her, and it's very squeaked out and she covers her face when she says it (she's terrified of your response) - luckily for her, you actually do feel the same way...and the pressure in her chest releases into soft heartbeats and some out of character shyness on her part. You two end up sharing a pretty heartfelt kiss at the end of dinner however and Osoko reminisces in her studio later that night. She does internally kick herself for being so nervous, this was you she was thinking about! "I can't believe I worried after all that...get it together, Osoko, you did it! You have a girlfriend now!"

Karako straight up goes for it. She's rather fearless when it comes to the things she wants, and you being on that list is no different. When she understands that what she's feeling for you is more than just friendship, she has plans in her head already. She ends up taking you to the park, a little bit of walking and taking in nature as you both actually liked to do often. Then...truly, she'll just come out and say it. It'll be honest; she'll tell you all the things about you that she likes and that she's come to realize that you hold a place in her heart that is much more special than anybody else holds and she would like to date you - as long as you're okay with that. It's said with sincerity, and those eyes of hers, even behind the dark sunglasses, are filled with determination. So when she hears you say yes, she immediately takes your hand, links your fingers together and gives you the most soft smile you think you've ever seen. "I'm glad...you really mean a lot to me, you know. I knew there was something about you that was special."

Choroko has to reel herself in when she thinks about you. Being so used to her yaoi consuming lifestyle, the complete switch into yuri territory was so alien to her. And yet with you...it felt so right. But you were beyond what all the mangas had painted what women loving women to be. With you she felt understood - comfortable even. There were no dramatics, no jealous lovers or intense fights...just plenty of sharing your interests in the comfort of one another. She ends up slipping her arm around yours while you guys are in the manga shop together, and while at first you didn't know what she was doing, the very brilliant red of her blushing cheeks gave you an idea. So when you leaned your head on her shoulder as a response, Choroko feels like she's in a manga; time stops, her heartbeat pounds in her chest. You like her back. You like her back and she's happy and she can't stop herself from wrapping her arms around your waist snuggling into your hair whenever you two sit together after that. "I'm sorry, I missed what you said that Chibi said to Dayo - you just...smell so nice, I got distracted."

Ichiko predicted this actually. Nothing, to her, is on accident and she's another one who is very forward about how she feels. You felt like destiny to her from the time she really got to know you, and there was no way she was letting go of destiny, and in turn - you. Over some cocktails she explains how she deeply cherishes your time together; the connection between you two being so important to her. Her dark eyes watch your reaction, noting your cheeks deepening in their red hue. She smiles, places her hand on yours, and tells you how beautiful you are. It unnerves you, but you retort with the idea that you too think you were meant to be in each other's lives. Ichiko is quick to put her hand your cheek, and before you know it, she has your lips as well. "Fate has brought me many, many interesting things...but you are by far my favorite of them all.

Jyushiko gets dolled up more than usual whenever you two go out together. She didn't realize at first why she wanted to look super nice whenever she was around you, but it makes sense to her finally when she catches her heart skipping after she's done laughing at a joke you told. Her hands comes to her chest, and it's true, her heart really has sped up just a tad while she's thinking about you. She blurts it out without thinking, but immediately hides her mouth as if she's just said something horrible. You stare at her for a second, followed by a giant smile - you're so happy she feels the same way! You both end up squealing at each other, before walking out into Shibuya together, fingers laced and talking about where you want to go for your now romantic date night. "Oh my god, I can't believe we didn't just tell each other sooner! I should've known you were perfect me, duh, you're so my type!"

Todoko likes to think she can play coy when her feelings over you hit her, but she's really an open book. The giggles, the hair-twirling when she's looking at you, the cutesy displays of affection that she swears are just her being "very friendly" - are all extremely obvious. While you're at the coffee shop, you lean forward. In a teasing tone you insinuate that you know she likes you in a romantic way and she freezes. Quickly she gathers herself and tries to stutter out that she doesn't and that you guys are just "really good friends" but her sweating face and her trembling is a dead giveaway. You don't need to do more than simply look at her for about ten seconds before she's actually crying; she admits she's liked you for a long time and she thinks you're incredible and cute and she just wants to date you already. So when she hears you say that you would love that, she hits you with these big, teary brown eyes and asks you if you're being sincere. Your confirmation flips her mood entirely and she links her arm with yours, her bubbly attitude reappearing in an instant. "Let's go right now! I know the perfect place where we can have some Italian for dinner - just you and me..."

Silly girls!!!!

Some side profiles I did before doing this art

[popponn]

praises from (some) bllk boys as bfs — a rating list. very objective. very serious. very canon.

chigiri: casual and very often, but means every word of it. often accompanied by a pat on the head or a forehead nuzzle. very proud of you and very loving, somehow feels like a bro though. 9.8/10 (if only he puts that shoujo manga aura sleeping potential he has. come on pretty boy.)

reo: hype man. good bf man. perfect man. will get the bouquet, will get you in his arm and spin you, will kiss you. public relationship? good, means he can do it in public. secret relationship? good, you get extra long kisses + cuddles. honestly no notes. is probably more proud of you than you are of yourself for whatever it is. 10/10.

isagi: keep the essay™ on how you are great in his head and usually go for the straight forward basic "you are amazing". if excited, you get a full body hug, if in boy next door mode you will get a besotted smile. both are good in their own way, just different expressions of genuine happiness. 8/10 (will add another 2 points if this is a subjective list)

sae: execution wise, need improvement. but because praise coming from him is like a black pearl or a blue moon during a supermoon and a lunar eclipse—the feeling of elation makes up for it. curt, short, and honestly a testament of how good the end result of your action is. but, objectively: 6/10 —adding a point because usually there are also head pats. 3 if not.

rin: is abysmal. please stop glaring because most people would translate it as them fucking up. but as his significant other, he will scoff and look at you three seconds too long then probably pat your shoulder once. probably a "so you can do it huh" if you are lucky. 3/10 way too constipated itoshi junior. (if he got through that teenage angst of his, 7. higher chance of "good job" because you are his favorite)

bachira: shouts. loud. very proud. another no notes. you get pats, kisses, hugs, kisses, and the list goes on. probably will have to get physically separated from you. if his mom is there too then will cheer along with him. afterward will take you somewhere as a celebratory date—it could range from buying a snack from the convenience store or a straight-up meal. honestly, you choose. 10/10.

bonus round: nagi — surprisingly 8/10. will immediately hug you and look so excited with wide open eyes and all like he just won something. ;; kaiser — 3/10 swallow that pride more and give something more than "see? you can do it" but extra point because high chance he gives you tough love motivation beforehand;; aryu — very osha before and after. very osha praises. osha / 10. no notes. ;; anri — miss gf will either cheer or cry out of happiness depending on how big your success is. if it's the latter please do your duty first. 7.5/10 please stop crying.

im not the biggest alhaitham/kaveh shipper (because im a rare pair ho) but it seems to me that in alhaitham/kaveh getting-together fics tend to be... unequal.

the beautiful thing about alhaitham and kaveh is that they're both equally right and equally wrong and equally dicks about it. but the writers for alhaitham/kaveh much more frequently seem to give alhaitham the burden change (the burden of the character flaw) instead of kaveh.

in any good character arc, the main character has a fatal flaw or misconception, and by the end of that arc they have addressed that flaw in some definitive way. scrooge was a scrooge and learned that being that way was detrimental; merlin from finding nemo was overprotective to a fault and had to learn that he couldn't (and shouldn't) control everything and to let go; the wolf from little red riding hood learns that you should stop while you're ahead.

stories centering around romance tend to lean heavily on character arcs, which makes sense. and since romance generally requires two individuals to be vulnerable and open and emotional with each other, it makes double sense that alhaitham/kaveh authors zoom straight into alhaitham's lack of emotional vulnerability.

this bothers me.

in society, individuals are expected to experience and present emotions in a specific way. if someone dies, you cry. if someone smiles at you, you smile back. if you're at a party, you're supposed to be having fun. if you don't do these things, you're seen as impolite at best and a inhuman freak at worst. when these behaviors are frequent it's often viewed as emotional immaturity, or a lack of ability to feel at all. the inability or lack of willingness to conform to societies emotional expectations of you is seen as a flaw and a reason for exclusion.

alhaitham is canonically disliked and avoided for being the way he is. he prefers it this way, but that doesn't mean the people perpetuating this avoidance are in the right. they are the societal pressure to conform that alhaitham blows off. alhaitham could be the way he is for a lot of reasons: avoidant attachment style, trauma, following someone else's example (eg. his grandmother), or just his base personality. it doesn't MATTER. he is the way he is. kaveh having to accept that should be part of the story.

putting the burden of the fatal flaw on alhaitham, making the way alhaitham treats kaveh and the people around him the problem, feels invalidating. it implies heavily that alhaitham's way of interfacing with the world, alhaitham's very SELF, is incorrect. my suggestion is to flip a larger portion of that burden onto kaveh. kaveh 👏 character 👏 arcs 👏

some examples/recommendations:

- make kaveh project his insecurities onto other people but especially onto alhaitham; he's overly reliant on other people for his own self worth, and he perceives alhaitham's lack of positive feedback as a direct reflection of how alhaitham feels about him. but learns along the way that alhaitham doesn't hate him, kaveh's actual struggle is with hating himself and being unable to his own self as worthy of love. maybe throw in how you are responsible for your own recovery, other people can help but you can't rely on them to carry you through self actualization.

- or, kaveh tries to make alhaitham behave more like a "normal" person, to be more pleasant and emotive and forthcoming, and then realizes he's in the wrong for trying to make alhaitham into something he's not, possibly for all the wrong reasons (not because he likes alhaitham better like that, but bc society says that's healthier and a better/more conforming way to be)

- or you could go ahead make alhaitham's issues the main problem but they're too complicated to overcome in a short period of time, so kaveh has to accept alhaitham is doing his best in his own way and not push for unrealistic and unhealthy changes. he could alter his own behavior to give alhaitham space and time and a safe place to land.

that got sappy so it's past time for me to dip out. go forth and ship things; but maybe consider letting alhaitham be a rude stone-faced bastard if he wants to be.
