#you'll find something. maybe you can make noodles.

[transgenderboobs]

something that really Gets Me about dungeon meshi is how like. the narrative is so Kind to everyone.

characters will fuck up and do unkind things and hurt each other and do things that are horrifying and the plot will still kind of hold out its hand to them all and say hey. let's share a meal together and talk it out. let's just rest for a minute. you deserve gentleness, we can figure this out together if we take care of ourselves

bonus part 2

simon can't cook-

okay no he CAN. okay? but it's very much- chop up whatever the fuck is in the fridge throw it in a pot, add as much meat he can find. then he's sorted. creating some sort of stew. but if not that. he thrives off 2 minute noodles.

listen, he's a working man. he can't be fucked thinking about what to make.

and if he needs to eat while not deployed and wants something, he'll get takeaways so he doesn't have to think about it.

and if ya'll are together - whatever you make... motherfucker eats that shit up like he's in a 5-star fucking reasturant.

you made scrambled eggs with bacon??? he's astounded. absolutely in love. has never been more satisfied in his life.

but oh lord. when he retires..

retired!simon fucking riley finds his fucking calling in cooking.

you no longer have to worry about cooking. nah-uh. not with this man who has all the time in the world to hone in on this new culinary world.

idk i just think it's so cute to think about simon going from beans on toast for breakfast to fluffy buttermilk pancakes or french toast with bacon a berry compote.

then for dinner; it's suddenly a whole line of sushi with all your favourites, dumplings to follow and a beef udon recipe dish. or maybe it's a simple roast - however, a perfectly seasoned meat has been sitting for a while in the oven for so long that when you cut into it, it's juicy and tender. and simon fucking beams at the faces you make.

dessert is a whole other game that simon fucking mastered. seriously. because he's placing down a skillet brownie, topped with ice cream and cream. And when you put a spoon into it, it fucking drips with chocolate ya'll.

just rahhhh retired!simon that turns into chef!simon. who just spoils you day and night with food. who gains the ability to make whatever dish you want, whenever you want. 3am and you want a grilled cheese? he can whip it up in seconds and it'll taste like the most gourmet grilled cheese you have EVER had.

btw, i'm torn between making him a gordon ramsay in the kitchen or him being the complete opposite and being so sweet and patient with you when you want to help him.

WAIT- speaks like gordon ramsay but treats you softly. like, you're not cutting with the knife correctly you fucking donkey. but instead of taking it off you, he presses up behind you, gently cups your hands with his and shows you how to do it safely. and he's speaking so sweetly and softly. a stark contrast to when he called you a fucking donkey - but hey you'll get your bite back. ;)

a/n: i can't fucking breathe this was so funny to write. i'm sorry idk why he called u a donkey. i'm fucking hungry if it wasn't obvious with this post.

Cw: yan!Sunday, forced affection (sfw)

Sunday, can be domestic in a mundane way.

Despite your hesitance, and your irritated weariness, you acknowledge that. Maybe after you've sobered from your after-crying haze.

He keeps you resting on him, your ear on his heart and his hands wrapped around you. He leans down occasionally to kiss the top or the crown of your head, fixing a few loose strands of hair before he retracts completely. His hand cups the other side of your face, gloved thumb gently rubbing away any stray tears from the corner of your red eyes, bloodshot from crying.

You can't be lovers – you decided it the moment Sunday trapped you. But he makes it appear almost possible, regardless of the firm, black line you draw. It seems to turn into the darkest shade of grey at a time; when he holds you in your quiet moments, his hand petting your head gently as he coos and softly whispers sweet nothings to you. The lights are soft and dim behind you, and in your haze, you can almost make out your lover's face instead of Sunday's.

It makes those days at least a bit more bearable.

Both of you make a (in your opinion, an egregious) deal, in silence. You get to ruminate, not look at him, not speak to him, even yell at him if it suffices you; as long as he can touch you, kiss the corner of your wet eyes or the tip of your reddened nose, pinch it playfully, and chuckle softly when you sneeze. He doesn't mind how much snot or salty tears stain and ruin his clothes, not when you're being much more agreeable now than you were before. He'll even remove his gloves to touch your sticky face, considering the meager exceptions you allow him.

And sometimes, that deal is carefully treaded upon like a tightrope, when he softly asks what you think about. You sniffle, still in your quiet haze after crying, staying as still as you can. It seems you want to ruminate even more, he's alright with it. He can always find a way to make you speak. He wonders if you'll allow him to feed you in this state, and what you might like. Pastries? Ice cream? Maybe something more savory, noodles? Or soup? He has time to figure it out. Until then he'll hold you til you fall asleep from your exhaustion, your shallow breathing finally turning even when your body grows heavy on him. He likes the feeling of your weight, as he's found recently.

He's also found, previously, that you seem to wake up earlier when you fall asleep on him – as he wakes to greet an empty bed, and some tousled sheets beside him, a faint warmth that you left behind.

how easy is it for the crew heads to crush on you? (lookism)

A/N: i was contemplating...pondering...thinking...and i wanted to make a post about it. contains spoilers for the current story!

✦ imagine you don't like them back at this point + you're unaware of how they're feeling :')

1. ELI

out of all of them...he'd fall for you the easiest imo. it wouldn't take a lot 🥹 not much to expand on here, because we've seen it with crystal. (what a time that was)

he realises that he 'liked' crystal because of the reminders about heather, and thinks it's not exactly healthy for either of them. afterwards, he finds himself being drawn to you. not because you remind him of happier times, or someone else, you're just...great on your own.

being good with children + liking them is an (obvious) essential for him. if yenna is having fun with you, you'll have his heart pounding. he just wants someone kind and caring, someone who'll be there for him. you don't have to be the best thing since sliced bread.

because of the whole forgiveness scene with heather's mom, eli would feel less bad about liking you. he starts thinking that maybe he can be happy with someone. that he can feel another person's affection.

he would still feel guilty about heather. because is three years too soon to move on? but i can totally imagine some corny moment where she appears to him in a vision, saying: are you scared i'll be mad or something? don't worry, eli. be honest about how you feel. you deserve to be happy.

and then she walks off into the horizon 😭 it's the exact type of thing ptj would do.

if you love being around yenna, if you're nice to him, if you compliment him for shouldering the responsibilities...you'll have his cheeks red 24/7.

and yes! that doesn't necessarily mean you'd want a relationship with a child present...or that you'd even like him back...but eli decides to take a leap of faith.

2. JAKE

oh brother. he's a little more complex i feel. but yes, i did rank him 2nd 😅

buying him food is a good place to start. he's an absolute foodie. unfortunately, managing big deal's finances means his diet consists of energy drinks + instant noodles.

and if you see his eyes light up at the sight of a sweet treat and decide: maybe i'll do this regularly? well...then he'll take a liking to you. just slightly.

but no, food would obviously not be be enough 😭

jake has many insecurities about his father, and how he gets compared to him all the time. he does not want to be! the man was a hoe. but it is what it is. he's accepted he'll never escape those shackles. he sees it as punishment for getting involved in this life.

he's barely heard anyone praise him for him. sooo, if you genuinely compliment jake kim, not jake kim the leader, or jake kim, the son of gapryong... maybe you think he's funny, or that you love playing word chain with him, or that he's easy to talk to... things he didn't get from his father... he'll start getting tiny butterflies in his stomach.

jake is smooth with his words too! we saw it in the third affiliate. (when he was talking to the girls at the club 🫡) he doesn't have experience in dating, but you'd think he does with the way he talks. and as time goes on, his way with words is a disguise for something deeper.

something small, but i think he's into smart people! not necessarily in the street smart sense - the book smart sense. he admires that, because he was the exact opposite in school. if you're studious and humble about it, he'll find it really attractive.

jake isn't stupid btw, if he likes you, he'll know.

but getting him to like you isn't difficult, getting him to confess is what is. jake is very aware of how his position would impact a relationship. he'll have very little time to spend with you. and...he's not really someone you can bring home to your parents. (surprise mom and dad, i'm dating a gangster!) and for all he's done, he doesn't think he deserves it.

he also wants to keep you safe. aka eugene would use you as leverage 😭

so, he bites his tongue.

also, with jake you have to consider: do you know what he does? what he's done?

if you don't, and just think he has a regular job, then he'll try (and fail) to push you away. when that doesn't work...and he spends more and more time with you...he even thinks about coming clean. maybe you'll accept him and all the bad things he's done for his people. but in the end, he knows it's unrealistic. you wouldn't. because this isn't a romance movie.

if you do, well...that just makes it more clear to him that it's better not to say anything. you've seen what leading a crew is like, how much it takes up his time. it's better for him - and for you.

still, when jake thinks of the people he wants to protect, he can't help but picture your face too.

if this man likes you, it's an angsty ride of longing looks + gentle smiles.

3. JOHAN

johan and jake are interchangeable in rankings...but i just put him 3rd.

firstly, (and most importantly) be a dog person.

similarly to eli, i don't think it would take much. buying food is a nice start. unlike jake though, he's just a starved victorian child 💔

we sorta saw this in one night arc with jace...but do something nice for him, something you don't even think twice about, and he'll have it ingrained in his mind.

he likes generous people with nice smiles.

similarly to jake, he'd be very hesitant to profess any feelings. but for johan, it's because he's shy 😅 he hates the cliché's and confessions that come with relationships.

definitely expresses his feelings through actions first. he does stuff that he thinks will make you smile.

yes, he'd be studying for himself + his mother, but he also wants to see your reaction when he shows you the test he did well on. (he barely passed)

he's the silent protector type! just a cutie patootie tbh 🫰🏽

he's also still getting used to the idea of letting people in, so it's for hard for him to grasp romantic feelings.

but he will confess to you...eventually.

4. SAMUEL

samuel would never like you. his secret dream is making sweet italian love with jake in the big deal RV.

A/N: last post of 2024! 🎉 happy new year :) fingers crossed for a crystal resurgence in 2025🤞🏽

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ OMG THANK YOUUU

Hahshwhah I did my best here hihi >w< Hopefully you'll like what I did!!

✧ Kanade was always on a bit more empathetic side... whenever she saw someone in pain or struggling, she immidietly wanted to help

✧ so whenever she sees her partner struggling with emotions... she can't help but feel sad as well

✧ she'll do her best to comfort her lover every time she sees them even a little bit sad

✧ she doesn't actually mind that you're so expressive... in fact, she kinda likes that you're not hesitant to show your emotions

✧ whenever you'd be crying because of something traumatic that happened, or just over spilled milk, she'll still comfort you as well as she can

✧ if you meet with anyone laughing at how easily you cry, she'll make sure to say some positive words to cheer you up

"No... don't think about it that way... the fact you're so expressive is very adorable. And it's not healthy to bottle up your emotions, so I'm happy you let them show."

✧ but if the situation repeats too much... she won't be able to tolerate it any longer and will just confront whoever made you feel like it. And as shown in Mafuyu's focus... she CAN confront someone who's bothering someone dear to her

✧ Mafuyu's reaction depends on the self of her you're dating...

✧ you'd most likely date her real self bur assuming you didn't knew about it yet, because maybe relationship is fresh? She would be extra caring

✧ she probably also finds some psychological excuse to why you might be like this and react so strongly

✧ though her real self? She won't understand it... maybe it's because she never really felt emotions in the first place?

✧ you'll have to describe that your heart feels like it's being shattered and that your throat is begging to yell... only then might she understand

✧ but be careful with descriptions! Because she might accidentally mistake it for some sickness...

"Twisting in stomach? ... Maybe you just ate something over the date?"

✧ she's not really good at comforting people... so when you're constantly crying, she'll only pat your back and stand there awkwardly not knowing what else to do

✧ though she still likes you a lot... so she tries her best to help you, but she figures it might help if you just let it all out and say whatever's bothering you

✧ she'll always be there for you if she sees you crying and have hand on your shoulder

✧ though she most likely won't hug you unless it's really necessary because she doesn't want to risk her outfit getting ruined...

✧ that's ar first though... as much as she loves you, when you're met every day with constant crying about everything, it can get annoying...

✧ she still tries to keep calm since she knows yelling won't help a single bit but you may feel sometimes that the comfort is a bit forced... especially if she's after bad day

✧ but she's an older sister! So despite it being a bit forceful, her comfort is still kinda good!

"Hey, hey... it's alright... Let it out, yeah? I'll do my best to help you. We can get through this together."

✧ she knows how it is to not have support in anyone, so she makes sure you know you can always lean on her for even a bit of support

✧ and no matter if you decide to face it with her or not, she'll still help you deal with your problem. Even if it'd mean facing some people for you

✧ Mizuki doesn't really mind! Everyone expresses themselves in different ways and THIS is simply YOUR way! And they love you all <3

✧ though they also know crying over everything is certainly nothing pleasant, so they make sure to always take action if they see you in state like that

✧ they'll always offer a hug first but it's up for you to take it! If you don't like being hugged, they'll just hold your hands or wipe your tears from your cheek

✧ they like to give some comforting words first and when they see it's slowly getting better, they'd quickly do their best to make you laugh or giggle, at least a bit!

✧ and if they can't make you giggle or find anything to say, they'll just offer something you might enjoy to take your mind off bad things

"It's alright... I'm here for you... Hey, why won't we figure it all out with hot choco? We can go to our favorite cafe! Yes, the cat one! C'mon! My treat~"

✧ after seeing you cry once, they won't leave your side for the rest of the day... they're just too worried to let you go like that!

Ridoc Doesn't Like Spaghetti

Relationship(s): Ridoc Gamlyn & Durran!reader, Bodhi Durran & sibling!reader, background Bodhi Durran/Ridoc Gamlyn

Summary: You kidnap adopt a snake, thinking no one will notice, but instead of having a fun time with your new pet, you discover that 1) your dragon might have a point in telling you you're incapable of caring for an animal, and 2) your brother's boyfriend is terrified of snakes.

You know it's a bad idea. You would have known it even without your dragon telling you so, because of course it is. But bad idea or not, you're nothing if not stubborn, and you'd always wanted a pet snake, so when you found the little guy on the flight field, you simply couldn't resist picking it up before it knew what was happening.

Smuggling it into your room under your flight jacket was easy enough — the snake was surprisingly docile — but now you're not sure what to do with it. You don't have anything you could use as a terrarium, not even a box you could put it in. But you don't like the idea of freely letting it slither around the room. You don't think it'd be able to squeeze through the gap under your door, but what if you're wrong? Or what if it ends up behind your armoire, finds a mouse hole in the wall to escape through? Plus, it needs a dedicated sleeping spot.

Unable to think of anything better, you empty out the top drawer of your dresser, carelessly tossing socks and underwear aside to make room for the snake. After padding out the space with a shirt and some of the socks, you're quite happy with the improvised snake habitat.

Spaghetti — as you've spontaneously dubbed the pale-yellow snake — seems to like it too. Or at least you want to believe so. It's hard to tell, considering snakes don't really have facial expressions, and you know practically nothing about their body language, despite your fascination with them. Now that you think about it, you don't know a whole lot about them at all...

"I told you this is a bad idea," Nathair grumbles in your head. "Either it'll die under your so-called care, or you'll get caught and have it taken from you, so why don't you just put it back where you found it?"

"No."

Surely it can't be that hard to take care of a snake. What could they possibly need, apart from water and something to eat? Sunlight, maybe. Yeah, you're pretty sure you remember something about reptiles liking it warm, and snakes are reptiles... Aren't they?

Okay, fine. You should probably try if you can get your hands on a book about snakes. You do want Spaghetti to have it good with you, after all.

"It was doing just fine on its own. Wild animals don't need or want to live in your sock drawer."

"How do you want to know that?"

A heavy sigh. "It's called common sense. I certainly wouldn't want to live in your drawer if I were one of those little creatures."

"I wouldn't want you in there, either. You'd probably set the whole thing on fire. But just because you wouldn't like it doesn't mean Spaghetti doesn't like it. He seems perfectly content— or she? How do you tell a snake's gender?!"

Nathair either doesn't know, or doesn't care, because instead of answering, he blocks you out. Fine then. You don't need his help. Since you doubt snakes have much of a concept of gender anyway, you'll just refer to Spaghetti as a him. Surely he won't mind.

Closing Spaghetti's drawer so there's only a small gap to let in air, you head down to dinner, contemplating if you should sneak some meat for Spaghetti. You're pretty sure snakes prefer mice or the like, but since you don't have a way of getting those, anything you can hide in your pockets at dinner will have to suffice.

"And this is exactly why your little noodle was better off in the wilderness."

"Shut up."

Nathair gets even more judgy when later, after Spaghetti refused the scraps of chicken you brought him, you change your mind about the drawer and decide to let him sleep in bed with you. What's the point of a pet if you can't cuddle it?

"You're ridiculous," he sighs. "So many promising first-years, and I just had to bond you out of all of them..."

"No take-backsies! You're stuck with me."

"Unfortunately."

You know he doesn't mean it. For all his complaints about your often less than appropriate behavior, he's glad you're not as serious — and therefore boring — as many other riders. He might have never actually said it, but you know he chose you for your carefree nature, not your barely-above-average courage or your not at all exceptional skill in battle. As a rider, you're as average as can be, which, considering you never wanted a job with this much responsibility, is more than you had expected at the start of the year. You smile, sinking deeper into your pillow as you muse over your unexpected success. Not only that you survived to bond a dragon, now you even managed to get a pet snake. No, life at Basgiath certainly isn't as bad as you used to think it would be.

The next morning, you almost miss breakfast because you spend ten minutes searching for Spaghetti, who apparently didn't like it in your bed. When you finally find him underneath it, curled around one of the posts, you hurriedly shove him in your bag and rush out the door.

"You can't seriously mean to take the snake to class," Nathair questions.

"Of course I do! He'll get lonely otherwise!"

"You'll get caught."

"Not if I'm careful."

"It will escape."

"Not if I'm careful!"

Naturally, it does escape.

It happens after lunch. Until then, Spaghetti is perfectly well behaved, keeping still and fooling you into thinking he enjoys accompanying you as you go about your day. You even manage to share some of your lunch with him without anyone noticing, though he again refuses to eat the food. But then you leave your bag sitting unattended on the floor, just for a minute or two, and when you look inside the next time, he's gone.

Luckily almost no one is around to see you panic — you're running late, and all the responsible people are back in class already. Someone else is late too, though. Someone just as immature and unserious as you, as it turns out when a high-pitched scream has you rounding the nearest corner. There you find Spaghetti, face to face with one Ridoc Gamlyn. And since you're almost sure snakes don't have vocal cords, the shriek must have come from the latter.

You shove Ridoc aside and pluck Spaghetti off the doorframe he's curled around before he can continue his escape. Then you turn your attention to your brother's boyfriend, who you only now realize has turned kind of pale.

"Hey, you okay? Sorry if Spaghetti startled you. He was probably just bored."

Ridoc manages a nod, never taking his eyes off the snake in your hands as you slip it back into your bag. "I'm fine," he croaks. "Just— not a fan of snakes."

"Huh? Oh." So it wasn't just that Spaghetti startled him. "Spaghetti is nice, don't worry. And I'm almost sure he's not venomous."

"Almost sure?"

"Yeah. I mean, I'm not sure what species of snake he is exactly. Or if he's really a he. And since he hasn't tried to bite me I can't say if he has poison, but I don't think so."

Ridoc pulls a face. "Ah. Great. So if he decides to bite you after all you'll just sit there and wait to see if you drop dead?"

"Well... Yeah, basically. But Spaghetti wouldn't do that. Like I said, he's nice."

"Uh-huh. Sure. Anyway, what the fuck kind of name even is that? Snakes don't look anything like spag— oh gods, you just ruined spaghetti for me forever."

"Uhm, sorry I guess?"

For a moment you just stand there, silently staring at each other. You definitely weren't expecting to fail at keeping Spaghetti a secret this soon, but at least it was only Ridoc who saw him, and not one of the professors, so there's still hope. Out of all the people in this college, the fun-loving jokester before you is one of the least likely to tell on you, even when taking his obvious dislike of snakes into account.

"Hey, uh, can you do me a favor and not tell anyone about Spaghetti? Please?"

Ridoc considers it for a moment, then nods, probably realizing that if no one knows about the snake, no one will find out he shrieked like a little girl when he saw it, either. Thus in agreement, you each go about your way and hurry on to class.

Walking into Bodhi's room that afternoon, you complain, "Ridoc is scared of Spaghetti."

Your brother looks up from his homework, confused expression saying he's not sure he heard you right. "What?"

"Ridoc is scared of Spaghetti," you repeat.

"Since when?"

"Uhh, right since I introduced them?"

Bodhi seems to grow more confused by the second. "What?"

"What?"

"He doesn't know about the snake," Nathair reminds you, and you're sure you can actually hear him roll his eyes.

"Oh. Right." You reach into your sleeve, pulling out the animal and offering it to Bodhi. "Ta-da! Meet Spaghetti."

"You— why the fuck are you hiding a snake under your jacket?"

"Well, I didn't want anyone to see it, because I doubt I'd be allowed to keep it if leadership found it. But he escaped after lunch and then Ridoc saw him and freaked out, so I wanted to tell you, except I didn't consider that that means you know too now. But— you won't tell on me, right?"

He sighs. "No, I won't. But none of that explains why you have a snake in the first place. Where did you even get it?"

"I... well, I guess you could say I kidnapped it? Or snake-napped it, I suppose. I found it on the flight field. Anyway, it's my pet now."

Bodhi puts his face in his hands, groaning as if this is the most annoying thing you've ever done, which it decidedly isn't.

"You can't just catch a snake and keep it as a pet," he lectures when he looks up again. "The poor thing has probably never been inside a building and is just about dying of fear! Plus if you're scaring Ridoc with it—"

"I didn't do anything! He got scared all on his own!"

Bodhi shoots you an unamused glare. "You know what I mean."

"How is it my fault if he has a problem with snakes?!"

"It's not," he admits, "but—"

He's interrupted as the door opens again, and Ridoc walks in, stopping dead in his tracks when he sees you with Spaghetti still in your outstretched hands. He looks ready to turn right back around and run, and while you cannot at all understand his fear, you are considerate enough to take a few steps back, holding Spaghetti close to your own body in hopes that Ridoc will feel less threatened if he sees the snake can't get close to him.

Spaghetti has an even better idea, winding up your arm until he completely disappears under your jacket again.

Ridoc doesn't seem very reassured, though. "Do you have to carry that— that thing around everywhere you go?" he asks.

"Yes. You don't have to be scared of him, honest." The look on Ridoc's face makes it clear he doesn't believe you, so you add, "Okay, look at it this way: snakes are basically just tiny dragons without wings and legs. And without the ability to breathe fire. Or speak. And without magic. And— well, you get what I mean. An absolutely harmless version of dragons if you will."

A wave of indignation rushes at you from Nathair, and Ridoc says, "Aotrom finds that insulting."

Bodhi nods. "Cuir, too."

"Well, whatever. I'm just saying there's absolutely no reason to be scared of snakes! Especially for a dragon rider!"

"I know that. I just can't help it!"

Before you can reply to that, Bodhi says, "It's okay, babe. Spaghetti was just about to leave, anyway."

"No!"

"Yes. Please, Y/n. Just— do me the favor and release the snake back into the wild where it belongs. Preferably before it bites someone. Okay?"

"Spaghetti doesn't bite," you mumble. "And even if he did, he's not venomous... I think."

"You think?"

"Yeah." Why are they both making such a big deal just because you don't know for sure? You're not a snake-expert, for fucks sake!

"Okay, whatever, just... take Spaghetti back where you found him. Please."

"But he likes being my pet! He's the most well-behaved snake to ever be a pet!"

"He hissed at me earlier," Ridoc argues.

"Because you scared him!"

"And in the one day that you've had him, he already tried to escape twice," Bodhi unsurprisingly takes his boyfriend's side in the argument.

"He's just... confused. He still has to learn where he can and can't go."

"Y/N, please. I know you want a pet, but this is ridiculous."

"Just give me a few days," you try to convince him. "If he still isn't behaving then, I'll release him. Promise."

"No. You're going to release him right now."

You pout. "Don't you want me to be happy?"

Bodhi looks like you're giving him a headache. Or maybe it's Ridoc and his fear of Spaghetti that has him massaging his temples. That's hardly your fault, but Bodhi seems to blame you for it anyway.

"Yes. Of course. But you're not going to be happy if your 'pet' dies from the shock of you dragging it around with you everywhere. Or if you get put on dish-washing duty or something for getting caught bringing it in here."

"Spaghetti won't die! And I won't get caught! Not unless one of you tells on me!"

"Yes, you will."

"You stay out of this."

"Hate to break it to you," Ridoc says, "but I'm pretty sure at least half the quadrant saw Spaghetti's head poking out of your bag or jacket throughout the day."

You blink in surprise. Had you really been that careless? "No, no, no. That can't be right. Someone would have said something if they saw."

"By now everyone is used to you doing weird stuff, Y/N," Bodhi sighs. "Just release him before you get in trouble."

With a sigh of your own, you pretend to give in, so you don't have to argue with them all evening. You'll just hide Spaghetti in his drawer and say he's gone. "Fine. I'll put him back outside. Good night."

Unfortunately, Bodhi knows you much too well to fall for that. He follows you out of the room, Ridoc also tagging along while keeping a healthy distance from you and your snake. Which won't be yours much longer if you can't find a way to stop them from following you to make sure you really release it.

"Don't you two have anything better to do than stalk me?"

"No. It's almost time for dinner anyway, so we might as well go together. Unless you have some secret plans we're ruining?"

Bodhi lifts a brow at you in unspoken challenge, and you quickly shake your head. "Nope. No plans."

"Great. Then let's see you release that poor snake."

"Uh-huh."

Damn it. You rack your brain for a way to get out of this, but come up empty, and before you know it, you've already reached the flight field. Looks like you're really going to have to say goodbye to Spaghetti.

You turn to Bodhi, putting on your cutest pout in one last attempt to change his mind. "Are you absolutely sure I can't keep him?"

To your great dismay, he remains strict, so you begrudgingly pull Spaghetti out your sleeve one last time, kiss his head, and place him on the ground. For a moment he stays where he is, and hope blooms in your chest. If he refuses to leave, if he shows any sign of wanting to stay with you, maybe Bodhi will let you keep him after all. But then Spaghetti seems to recognize his surroundings and goes slithering off under the nearest bunch of rocks.

Bodhi claps your shoulder. "He's better off in the wild, believe me. Now come on, let's get dinner."

You follow silently, trying to convince yourself that sulking about it would be not only stupid and childish, but more importantly absolutely pointless. Walking into the gathering hall, a grin spreads over your face when you look to the food counter. "Hey Ridoc, guess what? We're having spaghetti for dinner!"

"Oh please no!"

I can't believe it but part 3 of this :

_"Hey guys!" Monkey king jumped off his cloud and into the sand where the gang was waiting at the shore,

_"Monkey king! Are you okay?! Where's Macaque?!" MK asked worriedly,

_"Hey hey, easy budy. I'm as gorgeous as ever and Macaque is asleep." Wukong put his hands on MK's shoulders and he could feel MK relaxing after saying that,

_"Oh, that's great. Wait- asleep? Why is he asleep?" MK went back to his worry,

_"He was trying to find new info about the crown as well and stayed up for a couple of nights so I thought I'd just let him sleep."

_"he must be working hard... did he find anything?"

_"Unfortunately no."

_"Fiddle sticks... But don't worry! We found something! But thankfully it's wrong."

_"Why would you say that?"

_"Because if what we found is true, Macaque would've been dead by now." Mr. Tang added,

_"What?" it was almost a whisper, Wukong now understands why MK was so worried, "Ahem. Why? What did you find?" he asked hoping it's nothing serious,

_"Well, the scroll said it's 'the corrupted king's crown'. It's supposed to take over the person wearing it. Once under its control, they start to destroy everything around them until it absorbs all their energy... and soul..."

_"Well no need to worry. Macaque has healed nicely and hasn't used his powers to destroy anything, so maybe it's another crown or the information is badly translated." Wukong said smiling,

_"Really?! Oh that great!" MK felt relieved, so did everyone else, their faces finally lit up.

_"Show me the scroll and I'll look into it, maybe ask a few old friends."

_"of course, here." Mr. Tang gets the scroll out of his bag and gives it to him.

_"Now that that's out of the way, I feel so much more relaxed and super hungry, I'd love to eat some noodles." Mei said giving Pigsy a side eye and everyone else joined,

_"ALRIGHT ALRIGHT!! I GET IT!" Pigzy snaps at her, well... if he's being honest, he's also hungry.

_"Do you and Macaque want to join us?" MK asks the monkey king before they started heading towards the ship to leave.

_"I don't think that's a good idea, kiddo. Staying here is safer for him." Wukong felt his heart squeeze when he saw MK's disappointed face, "Once he's all good, we'll go together and have a feast." he said and winked at MK, and it did make him a bit happier.

Once everyone left, Wukong opened the scroll. Damn it. It is the same crown... Is that why Macaque couldn't use his powers? Is that why he couldn't heal and needed my powers? Is that why he couldn't recover his memories? He did say that he feels pain in his entire body every time he tries to use them...

That's...

GREAT! So as long as Moonpie wears the crown he won't leave. But... the soul sucking part is worrying. He hasn't lost his mind yet so maybe the spell wasn't completed properly when whoever did this put it on him. I need to make sure that part is out of the way-

_"Wukong?" Macaque startled Wukong when he came from behind him,

_"Oh, peach! What are you doing here?"

_"I heard them leave so I came. Did they find anything?"

_"Sorry peach, they only thought they found something but it doesn't fit so we're back to zero."

_"Oh.. That's disappointing."

_"Hey hey, don't be sad, it's just a little set back, you'll be fine, I promise." Wukong hugged Macaque and gave him a little forehead kiss,

_"Yeh, I guess." Macaque said hugging Wukong back, "I just don't know what to do. I'm lost." Why...

_"Well, for starters, how about we take a long hot shower, and then I give you a little massage aaaaand maybe we can watch TV, there's a show I KNOW you're gonna love."

_"*sniff* yeh, that sounds good." Why are you lying?

_"yeh?" Wukong held Macaque's face in his hands, "You have nothing to worry about."

_"I know." Macaque said as Wukong wiped his tears, "I have you."

_"Yeh you do! Now let's go, we'll order some food as well."

_"oh I love that! Can we get some noodles?"

_"I'll get you whatever you want." You just have to stay with me and I'll give you the world.

_"I want a piggyback."

_"pffff, haha! Alright, get up here." he held him on his back and headed back home.

edit: part 4

[fawnfictions]

Saw the thing of the monkie trio with reader who falls asleep in random places and.... can I ask for the same but with Red Son?

Platonic is fine but..... maybe also a lil bit romantic? :3

sleepier findings

— red son x gn!reader

ofc ofc ;P

i'm actually happy you requested red boy for this, this'll be fun hehe

;; romantic, fluff, no warnings.

RED SON

- the first time he finds you sleeping in some weird location, he sputters and his brain short circuits.

- what... what are you doing, sleeping in a GUTTER?

- he is IMMEDIATELY picking you up and taking you to either his house, or yours.

- don't worry, if yours is closer, he has a spare key ;))

- he's very concerned about your wellbeing, though; similarly to MK, he'll be worried that you aren't sleeping properly, or that you lack the proper vitamins that you need.

- prepare to be bombarded with questioning when you wake up.

- listen,, he just wants to be certain that you're okay <//3

- will scold you if you're sleeping somewhere public,, like if he ACTUALLY found you in a mf'ing gutter, he'd lose his temper a little, "You could've fallen into the Spider Queen's lair! And you're clothes are all dirty—you don't know what's touched the gutter!"

- after a while, he'll start keeping a closer eye on you, and checking up on you in case you've put yourself in danger.

- if you fall asleep in bad places a little too many times, he'll make you promise to be more careful.

- but, the times he finds you in safer places, like in Pigsy's Noodles or in his own house, and he's a lot calmer about it.

- call him weird for it, but he likes to stare at you as you sleep; you look so peaceful, and he adores the little expressions you unconsciously make.

- if he's been in his workshop all day, where you've kept him company off to the side, and he turns around about to call it quits for the evening and you're asleep?

- he might give in to the possibility of cuddles.

- ONLY at times like these, though; he's got a reputation to keep up as the Demon Bull King's son, and he can't be caught slacking like that ❌❌

- either way, he'll sneak a kiss on your head, though.

- if anyone catches him doing it and points it out, he'll fluster SO BADLY and nearly drop you.

- cue him yelling, causing you to stir, and shutting himself up in fear of waking you.

- he will go off at anyone who dares to even threaten waking you up, you need your sleep? you're GETTING your sleep >:(

- he'd be a great cuddle buddy, though.

- but he's reluctant to—Red Son hesitates with PDA in general, he's going to be very unsure about any sort of cuddling.

- it's easier to convince him if he's been busy all day, or if he was particularly annoyed about something/someone.

- he's very warm, given that he's a fire demon, and it is WONDERFUL for winter, horrible for summer.

- you'll wake up hot and sweaty in the worst ways, but you'll fall asleep like a baby.

With a sigh and a wipe to his forehead to rid it of a buildup of sweat, Red Son admired his work. He had spent all day tinkering in his workshop, busy on producing a vehicle to counter the Monkey King's little successor.

As much as he cherished inventing as a hobby and a skill, without you to keep him company, he'd definitely be far from completing it; easily growing bored when working on the same part for hours. Your wilful chattering and teases were keeping him sane, albeit that he constantly comments that it 'distracts' him.

Speaking of you, he realised that you hadn't spoken a word for the past ten minutes. Whilst you may have simply gotten distracted by another of his creations, he knew you well-enough to be doubting the chances of him turning around to you being anything but conscious.

And, as expected, he whipped his head around from where his back was facing you, attention caught on closed eyes and light breaths.

Lo and behold, your body��on the floor, curled up around the leg of a chair that he kept down here on the, not unusual, occasions that you would join him. The position didn't seem particularly... Uncomfortable, as your head was supported by the cushioned seat of the chair, but Red Son couldn't imagine that the concrete floor would be as soft.

Whilst tutting at your state, he stepped towards you. Leaning down, Red Son wrapped his arms under your legs and across your back, supporting your head in the crook of his neck. He couldn't lie; he loved carrying you, it boosted his ego to hold you like the innocent mortal you were.

He briefly gave a light kiss to your forehead, smiling down at your peaceful expression and holding back coos at the quiet snores you let out. He continued to the door, pushing in open with his foot and electing to finish up and close it later on. He had more pressing matters to attend to, at the moment: you.

You, who had softened his heart enough to lead to him carrying you towards his own bedroom with the intent of sneaking a cuddle in with you. A light blush dusted his cheeks, somewhat embarrassed at the prospect of snuggling to you whilst you were already asleep.

It wasn't as if you hadn't consented to it; countless times had you awoken, playfully scolding Red Son for not cuddling up to you to 'keep you warm', or to 'protect you from the bed bugs'.

Therefore, as he gently placed you atop his mattress, stealing another kiss from your forehead, he moved to the opposite side and pushed himself close to you. Red Son pulled the blanket up, ensuring the both of you were equally covered and that you seemed comfortable enough.

His face only grew hotter; carefully gathering you in his arms. Unconsciously, you grasped his shirt in your sleep, shortening the distance between your bodies until he was pressed up against you. He barely held himself back from stuttering at you.

Accepting his fate, albeit never planning on rejecting it, Red Son wrapped his arm over your side and felt you nuzzle your face into his chest. The exhaustion he felt from his hard work, matched with the peacefulness you seemed to radiate, he, too, found himself drifting to sleep. With red cheeks and a genuine lift of his lips, Red Son slipped out of consciousness with you in his arms.

[feyburner]

a while ago you shared your rice onions bell peppers chicken recipe as your go to meal and i made it last night and it was amazing!!! tysm for sharing it. do you have any other chicken recipes that can be made in a wok/kadhai? I don’t have an oven so I was pleasantly surprised to make sth that actually tasted good and not just sth i whip up for sustenance 😅

Yeah for sure. I rarely use the oven when I’m cooking dinner, I do pretty much everything on the stovetop in a wok or frying pan. It's faster and gives me more control.

I think the best thing you can do is learn basic techniques. Once you have the basics down, you don't need a recipe to whip up a quick weekday dinner. You can just cook whatever you feel like cooking, with whatever's in your kitchen: whatever cut of meat, whatever veggies, whatever spices in your pantry.

99% of what I do is just the same basic techniques with different seasoning profiles, veggie sides, and carbs (rice, flatbread, potatoes, noodles).

Here are 4 things to do with chicken in a wok.

Dry Rub + Saute

The easiest and fastest. Simply make a spice mix, massage it into every nook and cranny of the meat (whole or chopped, either way), let it sit for a bit while you get other stuff ready and heat the pan (ideally you'd let it rest in the fridge for a few hours, but it's not necessary), then saute in oil.

The spice mix can be whatever you want (or a premade one, who cares). It's honestly hard to find a combination of random herbs and spices that doesn't taste good. After all, the basis of all cuisine is "doing stuff with whatever we have around," and I've never met a cuisine I didn't like. My go-to spice mix is 1 spoonful brown sugar plus roughly equal parts (1-2 tsp each) paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili or cayenne powder, salt, black pepper, plus 1-2 dried herbs. (Basically Cajun spice mix.)

How to saute (it's one of those things that everyone just assumes you know how to do, but maybe you don't!): First, heat wok over high/medium-high heat. You know the wok is nice and hot when you flick a couple drops of water in there and they instantly evaporate. Then, drizzle in enough oil to give the bottom of the wok a solid unbroken sheen. Swirl the pan so the oil coats the whole bottom. Watch the oil. When the surface is shimmering/trembling (should be very quick if your pan is already hot), it's ready. Carefully add your chopped meat or veggies in a single layer--don't overcrowd the pan, the meat will steam instead of brown. Let the meat sizzle untouched for like 2-3 minutes, then flip to brown the other side. You don't need to constantly stir or toss--that just lengthens your cooking time because the meat isn't touching the pan long enough to brown. That's how you get tough chicken! For chopped chicken, 6-7 minutes of pan-touching is plenty of time to cook through.

Marinate + Saute

Same thing as a dry rub, just wet. There are lots of ways to marinate chicken. The thing to remember is marinade = acid. Acid breaks down proteins, which tenderizes the chicken/meat.

Typical marinade acids: lemon juice, vinegar, soy sauce, buttermilk, yogurt. Simply pick one and build the rest of the marinade around it. If you use something very acidic, like lemon juice or vinegar, you'll want to balance it with fat: roughly equal parts lemon juice and olive oil. For soy sauce, it's really salty, so you'll want to balance it with something sweet: honey, brown sugar (i.e. teriyaki). Buttermilk and yogurt are great bases for a spice mix--think US Southern buttermilk fried chicken, or Indian yogurt marinades.

Once you have a balanced base, you can add whatever herbs and spices you want. Then just make sure all the meat is coated in marinade, cover, and chill in the fridge for a few hours. Then saute as usual (though you might want to use a little bit more oil to avoid bits of marinade sticking and burning).

Curry

Very easy and delicious. There are 1 million kinds of curry. This is just me but I think of it as a spectrum from thin to thick. "Thin" would be like Japanese or Thai style, where the base is primarily broth or stock (sometimes with coconut milk/cream) thickened or flavored with roux or curry paste. "Thick" would be like certain types of Indian curry, like makhani style with the blended tomato-onion base, or yogurt base, or creamy cashew/peanut/etc. base.

The main building blocks are gonna be onion, garlic, ginger. Then spices and other seasonings, obviously depending on what kind of curry you're making: curry powder, garam masala, lemongrass paste, cumin, coriander, cardamom, chili, mustard, cinnamon, cloves, turmeric, etc.

If you are making "thin" style, you might want to make a roux. A roux is just equal parts fat and flour cooked in a pan.

How to make roux: 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup butter. Melt butter in pan, add flour, stir constantly over medium-low heat until desired color. Light roux = cook 5 min just until blond/golden, use for white sauces like bechamel. Brown roux = cook until caramel color, use for curries and soups. Dark roux = cook until deep chocolate brown, use for gumbo or jambalaya (mostly for flavor, not thickening).

To make roux for a curry, make a light or brown roux and add curry spices near the end. Let it fry for 1 minute or so to bloom the spices. Remove from pan and set aside to cool.

Another way of thickening curry is to cook chopped or diced onion until softened, then sprinkle on 2-3 Tbsp of flour + whatever spices you're using and stir for 1 minute or so to cook the flour and bloom the spices. Then add liquid.

3 basic curry methods:

Japanese style. Make curry roux. Heat oil in a wok. Add chopped onion and cook until softened. Stir in minced garlic and ginger (or ginger-garlic paste). Add chopped chicken and cook, stirring, until white on the outside. Add 4 cups chicken stock. Add chopped carrots and potatoes. Season with soy sauce, honey, etc. Simmer 15-20 minutes, uncovered, until chicken is cooked and veg is softened. Take 1 ladleful of cooking liquid and whisk into your roux until smooth. Stir that mixture back into your curry. Simmer, stirring, 5-10 minutes until thickened.

Thai style. Heat oil in a wok. Add curry paste or ginger/garlic/lemongrass paste + curry spice mix and fry 1 minute to bloom. Add 2-3 cups stock a little at a time, whisking, to avoid lumps. Add chopped chicken, onion, potato, whatever else you want, plus 1 can coconut milk/cream. Season with fish sauce, tamarind, sugar, etc. Simmer 15-20 minutes, uncovered, until chicken is cooked and veg is softened.

Indian tomato-base style. Marinate chopped chicken in yogurt marinade with curry spices for a few hours. Heat oil in a wok. Add minced garlic and ginger (or ginger-garlic paste) and curry spices. Fry 1 minute to bloom. Add chopped onion (and bell pepper if you want) and stir together. Add 1 x 28oz can tomato puree. Cook, stirring, 5 or so minutes until slightly darkened. Carefully transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer back to pan. Add 1 can coconut milk/cream or 1ish cups heavy cream. Simmer 30-40 minutes. Meanwhile, in a separate pan, sear chicken on both sides just until browned and caramelized. Add to curry and cook for 10 minutes until cooked through.

All of these are very hard to fuck up, since they're so similar to soup. Pick a style, pick some spices, go for it.

Finally,

Stir Fry

Who doesn't love stir fry, the world's most versatile food. "Stir fry" as a technique is different from "saute" in that it uses a bit more oil and a slightly lower heat, so there's a slightly longer cook time. (And you're stirring more.) For stir fry, you'll want to velvet your chicken to make it super tender and juicy. Otherwise, all you're doing is making a stir fry sauce and then cooking chicken and veggies in stages.

To make a stir fry sauce: The equation is: Water + fat + balance of sweet, salt, spice, sour + thickener. My go-to is like 1/3ish cup water + 1-2 Tbsp sesame oil + brown sugar, soy sauce, hot sauce, lemon juice or rice vinegar + 1 Tbsp cornstarch mixed with 1 Tbsp water to create a cornstarch slurry. Just mix everything together and set aside. Then saute your chicken first, remove from pan. Add your veg to the pan in stages depending on how long they take to cook: first something like broccoli or carrot, cook for a few minutes, then onion and pepper, then minced garlic and ginger at the very end (garlic burns easily). Add your chicken back in, give a stir, pour your sauce in, give it a stir, done.

Good god this got long. Sorry. Work was slow today so what else am I gonna do.

Anyway, hope this helps! These 4 basic things, in combination with the wide world of seasonings, can create infinite easy meals. Let me know if you try anything. Good luck!

Hii! Idk if you’ve done this one before but I have a horrible cold rn so my request is: how would the rogues take care of a sick reader? I love your work and I’ve been dying to request something for a bit now

Sick Reader

Rogues Headcanons ok i love offering a lil bit of goodness and comfort for people when they're feeling shitty so i have tried to get this out as soon as possible for you! i hope you're better now though!! 💜 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: fluff, some sexual stuff i mean it's me

scarecrow

he's actually very calm about it, very structured and prepared

sickness is something he dislikes, so he's sympathetic

and knowledgeable in prevention as well as curing

so you'll be sent to bed with a hot water bottle and a tea

and nursed softly back to health by him until he decides you're well

which he monitors efficiently and obsessively until you call him off

mr freeze

there's a slight panic to him when someone close to him is sick

he wouldn't want it to get too serious, or life-threatening

so he's on it immediately, offering you medicines and comfort

trying his best to make sure you're seen by medical professionals

and ensuring he does his best to get you better as soon as possible

but he'll sit by you, holding your hand, until you're feeling good

bane

he's not sure about how to fix it, which he finds infuriating

but his main focus is making sure you're at least not suffering

so he'll be fumbling, distressed, waiting on you hand and foot

literally giving you everything you could possibly want

it's so sweet it heals you quicker, maybe a placebo

or maybe it was the four blankets and ten soft toys he piled on you

zsasz

groggy people kind of annoy him, but for you he'll tolerate it

his sympathy is somewhat limited though, it's just a bit gross

he'll still pass you a tissue, at arm's length, and with gloves

and he'll remind you that he's excited for you to get better

not just because you are literally a walking germ right now

but because he misses you at your best, and misses kissing you

poison ivy

natural and herbal remedies are something she's clued up on

so get ready to feel even better than before you got sick

she's going to heal everything in you, from top to bottom

inside and out even, because what couldn't a warm hug heal?

so quick, sip up that weird green tea with leaves in it

and let her just hold this soup in a vine so she can stroke your head

riddler

what sickness can't you talk about until it's cured? laryngitis!

ok it's probably not that, less serious... but who knows!

not helpful... hm... what about a hot drink and a hug?

but what about just one more riddle? it would help distract him

of course, you are the sick one... but if you must know!!

he's very worried about you, don't mention that again though

penguin

he's a busy guy, but he's calling every meeting off to sit by your bed

whatever you need, whatever you want, he'll get it for you

or rather, he'll have some poor henchman rush out for it

you want soup? something sweet? a new blanket? a new bed?

you want new pyjamas? something softer or warmer?

spoiling you won't cure you, but it will make it easier to cope!

harley quinn

it's chicken noodle soup time, and she'll be hand-feeding you

don't argue, you lie completely still and she'll do everything for you

ok, listen, she's a doctor, but maybe she could be nurse harley

just for you. get a little cute outfit and tend to your every need?

whatever makes it easier for her to force you to just lay back

let sweet nurse quinn take your temperature huh?

mad hatter

every morning he's just glad you haven't died

very dramatic of course, it's just a common cold, but still

you're precious to him, and he'll make sure you get better

how much tea can you stomach? because... get ready for a lot

something hot to soothe your throat, to heat you up

and a kiss on the head to soothe your heart and comfort you

two face

harvey is all about playing nurse and keeping you comfortable

harv on the other hand thinks you should power through it

a combination of both actually works very well it turns out!

being filled up with cough syrup and pain meds is great

but being forced to go for a drive with the window down

while you get hickies at red lights? perfect cure for what ails ya

[starsurfacemortalkombat]

Hai! Been regressed all day because I’ve come down with a icky sickness and i dont feel so good :< Could I maybe get some Mk11 Kano Cg hcs of him looking after a sick/ill baby regressor?- ✨

No cause like, I've been sick for almost a week and it's only gotten worse, especially in the past two days >:(

There's some silly virus going around, and I'm sorry you caught it, darling :(

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

CG Kano w/ Sick Babyspace Regressor Hcs

⚔️ Kano, as much as I love him, isn't the best person

⚔️ Probably teased you for being sick when it wasn't that bad

⚔️ Like, come on, you aren't that sick, stop being all dramatic

⚔️ But when your symptoms began to worsen, he actually became super worried

⚔️ At first you just felt a bit icky, but now you can't feel half your face with how congested it is, your throats all scratchy, it hurts to talk, you're practically panting because you can't breathe through your nose

⚔️ ^ Apologies, I'm projecting, I feel incredibly icky rn

⚔️ He feels really bad that he didn't take your sickness seriously when he could have helped you when it wasn't that bad

⚔️ He feels even worse when you regress really tiny because of how icky you feel :(

⚔️ Don't you worry, Uncle Kano's gonna take good care of you now, Sweetheart

⚔️ Since your really tiny, he'll swaddle you in your favorite blankie and rock you, gently shushing your cries

⚔️ Kano's got a pretty tough inume system, so he doesn't get sick easily

⚔️ Because of this you get all the cuddles you could ever ask for

⚔️ Usually when you two cuddle he calls you a Clingy Koala but will die down his teasing because you feel icky and just want some lovin’

⚔️ Ans how could he make fun of you for that? Poor thing

⚔️ Kano, surprisingly, is a pretty decent chef, and will make you some bomb chicken noodle soup

⚔️ ^ I recommend Princess Chicken noodle soup, it makes me feel a bit better

⚔️ He'll spoon feed you so you don't spill anything by accident

⚔️ He'll get you some yummy Sprite and saltines if your feelings hungry

⚔️ Like, he'll get you actual food if you'd like, but those are some of the go to sick snacks he knows of

⚔️ Will not let you have munchies if you can't stomach anything though, he doesn't wanna make you throw up on purpose :(

⚔️ He'll clear his entire schedule just to make sure he can look after you

⚔️ Kanos not a very nice man, but he refuses to leave his bab’s side when they feel all icky like this

⚔️ Plus Kabal can do all the Black Dragon work for a few days <3

⚔️ Unfortunately, you might need to have some nasty medicine :(

⚔️ He'll get you some yummy water afterwards and cuddle you

⚔️ He knows some medicine doesn't taste great, but somehow all the yucky ones make people feel better quicker

⚔️ If your little enough to use diapers, he's more comforting about it than usual because your all sick

⚔️ If your throat hurts, he'll make you some warm milk or get you some throat medicine

⚔️ Is also a lot more patient than usual

⚔️ He knows your sick, and he knows you might be already sensitive than usual

⚔️ He also knows that crying because you couldn't find your hair tie isn't something that you'd usually do, but you better know he'll find that hair tie for you (he was probably sitting on it)

⚔️ Usually he'd encourage you to babble, laughing and having conversations with you

⚔️ But now you sound like Bi-Han, all raspy and almost drunk (very bad overall)

⚔️ So he probably expects you to go somewhat nonverbal, cradling you and letting you huff and cry into his chest

⚔️ It's never nice, feeling all icky and bad

⚔️ You'll never have to worry about going through it alone though, he'll become your clingy Koala

⚔️ He'll put on your favorite cartoons or movie, and you two will cuddle in bed

⚔️ He'll try to make you laugh by making jokes or jabbing at one of his friends

⚔️ But if you get irritated at them faster than usual, he'll stop

⚔️ It's no fun making a joke if you both can't laugh about it

⚔️ Kano isn't the best person to help you get better, since he doesn't actually know what he's doing half the time and is completely winging it

⚔️ But he's there for you, thick and thin

⚔️ Your his baby after all, you can't be sick alone, what kind if Dada would he be if he left you all alone? >:(

⚔️ He'll gently clean your face and shush you when you start apologizing

⚔️ There's so need to apologize, your body just feels a bit icky, Sweetheart, no need to be sorry

⚔️ If your too woozy or small to stand up, he'll carry you around so you can feel a bit better by brushing your teeth or taking a quick short

⚔️ Highly encourages sitting under a steamy shower so your face gets unclogged from all the bad stuff in it

Ik it's been awhile since I have dropped a HC on you, but consider: Akira doing some unnecessarily dangerous stunt in the Metaverse and feeling so proud of himself... and then he's shocked when the team gets angry/worried that he risked his own safety like that.

"Guys, it's fine, only I would have gotten hurt!"

And then they just get even angrier and he's confused and startled they're so worked up about it. He's not used to people worrying about him.

omg june, hi!!! aaa i yelled when i saw your user pop up, hope you're doing well!!

your brainworms are angsty as ever and oh how i love it

i'm such a believer in the akira-is-passively-reckless-about-his-own-life concept, you'll have to rip it from my cold, dead hands

considering the in-game clues we get about how he's not great about keeping himself well-fed and has an automatic tendency to throw himself aside for the sake of other people's safety, akira's probably got a huge lack of self preservation to add to that (maybe even, a complete lack of care for his own wellbeing) (i'm absolutely blaming his home life for this)

which works well enough for someone in a leadership position, he'd make sacrifices for others very easily and yeah!! he's just so used to not putting himself into consideration- he doesn't even think about his own safety. nobody else ever has, so why should he?

it trickles into everything he does. the last healing item goes to a teammate, whatever funds he makes from part-time jobs goes into the phantom thieves (nevermind that he's living on sojiro's patronage curry and instant noodles, that's unimportant, he's unimportant), he offers unconditional support and a listening ear to every confidant he meets, and helps them with all their problems- even if it is to his own detriment. on the battlefield against a new enemy, joker will do his best to find the weakness- because if they repel anything, at least then he carries the brunt of the backlash. it's natural, instinctive, and therefore he sees no wrong in it.

and for a long time, he gets away with this reckless abandon for his own safety.

except he goes a step too far, maybe he decides to distract another hoard of shadows on his own? or makes what should be an impossible zipline move to cross to the other side of a chasm. against a rampaging enemy, he throws himself in the firing line. after months of excusing the passing recklessness, this is a step too far for the phantom thieves.

when they're reunited with joker, he's not greeted by praise for his dramatic flourish, or impressed and spirited cheers for carving a path deeper into the palace, but instead worried frowns and scolding reprimands. flurries of hands which search for his injuries and want to heal, and he doesn't need it he's fine-

and oh you're so right it would hurt so much because akira would be so confused by their concern!! at first, he probably assumes they're talking about anything but him. did he accidentally break a treasure on his landing? for some reason, had the thieves not wanted that shadow hurt? what was it this time, what had he done wrong- because he had to have done something wrong he always does something wrong, eventually

when it gets through to akira that no, they're worried about his safety the boy blue-screens there and then.

it's not something he's ever been used to- care, affection....attention. nobody's cared enough to look close enough before, and suddenly akira doesn't know what to do with this worry, with this obvious sign that people care about him, that someone values akira kurusu....he's in a bit of a fugue as the diarahan washes over him, so much do he can't even scold what he'd deem an unnecessary use of energy

they call it a day in the palace not long after.

learning to value your own life isn't something that's easy, but akira's surrounded by people who care about him now- they can be patient. this time, they're taking the lead to help akira, not the other way around.

maybe makoto challenges him to find a more safe plan, that doesn't involve reckless action. ryuji helps him be more open about his feelings. ann teaches akira how to appreciate himself. futaba shows him how to trust in what people promise. yusuke guides him through self-appreciation in his own, artistic style. haru helps akira define himself, outside of the parameters his parents set for him. morgana stays at his side through it all.

in their own way, they'll help akira find some self-worth, and hope to see the fruits of their labour in akira guarding a bit more often in battle, turning to his teammates instead of charging in headfirst and bearing the weight of shadows' attentions himself. they'll wait patiently for the day he asks for help, and be proud when he does.

for now, they'll accept the occasional willingness to head back to a saferoom, or retreat from battle. they'll mentally cheer when he uses one of their few healing items to patch a gash in his side. it's all about the small steps.

Fun 'Little' Activities for Playing At Home!

Run out of fun ideas for entertaining your little one, adult baby, or regressed subby partner? Here are some very quick and easy at-home activities that'll make almost any Little feel extra cute, regressive, and happy!

Treasure map: hide an object (like a stuffie, key to their cage, or diapee change) and leave a ridiculously convoluted set of clues. Make a treasure map, give riddles, make something cute and fun and I guarantee your little one will remember it for ages! The more complicated and silly, the better! Maybe it's a map to "mommy cove" or "the dead pirate snugglebeard's" lost treasure! Have fun with this!

COLOR MATCHING! This is easy: use any colored markers, pens, or pencils to make a nice long list of colors... and send your little out to find matches. Perfect gray rock, little one! Aww the red of your apple isn't quite the right fit, go look for something else red! Seriously... it's a short and simple activity to set up but leaves the little feeling special, cute, and blushy for their caregiver! Plus... it's silly little fun!

PAPER AIRPLANE CONTEST! EVEN IF it's just you two alone, make it fun! Tape a landing zone goal on the ground across the apartment, give your little a sticker for the "best designed" paper airplane, see whose can go further... and then help your little win, so they feel cute and pandered to and adorable! You'll notice them making lots and lots of paper airplanes for weeks after, because it made them feel so cute and special and little!

"Kid" science projects: from the baking soda volcano to growing your own rock candy, it's all available online, will make your little one feel silly but cute, and let them indulge their curious, wondrous little side a bit! Extra points if it's something really fun like the rock candy or something new and cool they've never seen before!

Biodegradable bird feeders: from orange peels to larger veggies, you can make a simple bowl or small bird feeder that's biodegradable and isn't a commitment to keeping a permanent bird feeder. BUT... since it's biodegradable and cheap, you won't mind if your cute little one goes a bit crazy and makes 3, or 4, and excitedly points out every bird that stops for a nibble. If you need extra detailed instructions, just look up biodegradable feeders or 'orange peel birdfeeder' and you'll get plenty of online advice!

Pool (or bath) party! By which I mean things like issuing craft supplies to make a cute boat out of a pool noodle, or letting your little cut up a sponge to make it a cute animal shape, or let the little one specially decorate and color on a favorite pool/ bath toy for them to play with at bath time! It's even more fun if you can enjoy a little VERY MINOR splashing and playing in the water.

MAZES! Well, drawing them at least. Have you and your little sit down and draw a maze for the other person... extra points if the big uses nice fine pencils and pens and the silly little only gets thick markers and crayons! Maybe even a competition: who can finish the other one's first! And obviously: no cheating!

Kink bucket list! Have the little and/or caregiver make a fun list of neat activities, kink included, they've always wanted to do and make a goal to check one off the list every month! Maybe it's very 'mature' like a daddydom wanting to make their little one climax with no touching... or maybe it's cute and silly, like wanting to take a little to the zoo with pullups under their big boy/big girl clothes! Regardless... it's never too early to start ticking things off your list!

There's no time like today for making your little feel loved and cute and regressive and special. And there is generally nobody that your little one wants to play with more than their caregiver! So have fun, let yourself be cute and silly right along with them, and as always...

Stay Happy, Stay Healthy, and Stay Kinky!

Protect The Starlight Sun/Moon x Reader Chapter 6

Sorry about the wait everyone and that it's so short. This is a filler chapter as I've been swamped the last few months. I will try to update as much as I can! 

      It has been a few weeks since your first day at work and everything seemed to be going great. Moon would sometimes threaten to hurt you now and then. You had been asking Sun for tips to get Moon to trust or even like you. You remember what Sun had said the other day that had shocked you. "You think Moon doesn't like you? No, no, no... it's not that he doesn't like you. He's afraid to put his trust in people." Why would Moon be afraid to trust people? Did something happen to Moon that made him like this? You were going to find out, but unfortunately, you can't do that today. Today was your day off, and you had already promised your best friend you'd hang out with them. Currently, you are waiting for them. You looked at the time on your phone and let out a sigh. Where are they?

        You lay down on the couch for a quick minute closing your eyes. After a few minutes, you heard someone knocking at your door. You got off of the sofa, walked over to the door, and opened it. There standing was your best friend. "Finally, B/F, what took you so long?" you asked, letting them in. "So sorry, Y/n. I had something come up, but I'm here now, and you need to tell me everything," they said, smiling. You started to tell them everything about your job and how much you needed to do. You didn't leave out that you worked with Sun and Moon in the Daycare. "Oh my god! You met the daycare attendants?? What were they like? Did they like you at all?" B/F bombarded you with questions. You laughed a bit, knowing that only a few people went around Sun and Moon to drop off their kids. 

        "Well, Sun was nice and friendly. He was always helping me out and gave me great tips. But Moon, he was a different story. He was always cold and distant. He would even threaten me sometimes. I don't understand why he's like that and why he doesn't want to trust me." You tell your best friend. "Hmm, I don't know. Maybe try talking to him? Show him that you're a trustworthy person and that he can depend on you. You won't know until you try," B/F said, smiling. You thanked them for their advice and said goodbye. You were going to take their advice and try to get Moon to trust you. No matter how long it takes. 

        After hours of hanging out with your best friend, you decided to make yourself some food. You look through your cabinets and decide to make some chicken noodle soup. Sure it wasn't much but hey it was simple to make. While making the chicken noodle soup you noticed a notification come up on your phone. It was a text message from your boss. 'Due to something happening in the Daycare, you do not need to come in tomorrow as the Daycare will be closed. However the day after tomorrow you will need to come in to do some work on Sun and Moon. Thank you for taking the time to read this and see you in 2 days!' You were confused. What happened in the Daycare that led it to being closed? Did a child get hurt or did something happen to Sun and Moon? Guess you'll figure out when you go to work in 2 days.

I'd like to ask for Reader moving in with Kanade and Nene (Seperately) ty!

moving in . . . ♡

characters - kanade, nene.

type - hcs.

a/n - i know that atm kanade is living with mafuyu, but for the sake of this post, we're gonna pretend she isnt shsgfsghsj

If you're moving in with Kanade, you'll have to be good at staying tidy. We all know Kanade's not very good at doing it herself

I imagine she'd at least attempt to keep everything clean for you, though

Those cups of noodles just seem to build up in her room no matter what, however...

Well, if it ever becomes too much, you can just call up that housekeeper of Kanade's, right?

You'll also often have to make sure she's taking care of herself

Gentle reminders to take breaks from her work, making sure she's getting good rest, and most of all, making sure she's actually eating healthy

She'll often call you into her room while she's working on some music and ask what your thoughts on it are

To which you'll have to say "Kanade, it's 4am, why are you still awake? Go to sleep."

(She does not go to sleep. You later find her passed out in front of her computer again. Maybe she'll actually use her own bed next time...)

Living with Nene is pretty calm

She's in her room most of the time, either playing a game of hers or practicing for an upcoming WxS show

And while she does like to keep to herself, that absolutely doesn't mean you'll never see her

She'll come up to you and ask you if you want to play something with her if you aren't busy

She usually kicks your ass at it if it's a competitive game, but sometimes she feels bad about it and lets you win

But if it's a co-op game... You two are unstoppable

You might occasionally pass by her door and hear her practicing her singing/acting

She has such an angelic voice that you can't help but stop and listen for a while

...Until she realises you're listening and stops immediately, embarrassed at having been heard

Although, if you tell her you loved it, she might sing a little something just for you. <3

Not sure if requests are open but...

Kanade with a reader who are in a relationship and Kanade finds the cup noodles taste better when reader makes it.

They were when you requested so here we go! And to be honest, I had lots of fun writing this one so hopefully you'll like it too hah ^^

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Kanade finds noodles tastier when reader does them

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ fluff

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ @bleachtheidiot @prsk-krow @modyuki @hakulivesformusic

Kanade was in her room, working on newest song for Nightcord. It was already after 16/4pm and yet, she didn't had her dinner yet. Some may think it's nothing unusual as she often skips meals but this time was different... she promised not only Miss Honami but also her lover to eat properly but she just coudln't find the motivation to reach for that noodle cup knowing she can get the noodles made from heaven in just few minutes...

You on the other hand were just on your way to visit your girlfriend and see how she's doing! Unfortunely because of bad weather, you're few mniutes later than you told her... but let's just hope she won't mind!

You entered her house using spare keys she got for you and made your presence known when you saw no one in the sight, figuring the girl you're looking for must be in her room.

"Hey Kanade! It's just me!"

"I'm in my room! Just give me a minute!"

She probably just got some nice idea and wants to write it down, it happens often to everyone! So you took care of the kitchen, thinking you might need to clean some stuff but it ended up it wasn't much... that's when you began to wonder if she eats properly...

Once the gray haired girl comes out of her room, you immidietly asked her about your doubts after short greeting hug.

"Hey Kanade... just a question... did you ate today?"

"Yes I... ate breakfast..."

"And dinner?"

"Well, I waited for you..."

You only sighed in response, it was truly a sweet gesture of hers but you didn't wanted her to starve just because of you!

"I'll make you something quickly. Do you want anything specific?"

"Noodles?"

You kind of expected that honestly... you didn't put up any talk about how she should eat healthier tho, at that moment you were just happy she agreed to eat anything and take a break from her work.

Blue eyed girl handed you 2 cups of noodles, you knew she wanted you to eat properly too so you just nodded with a smile and filled them with water as soon as it boiled.

It was a calm moment between you two, when you were just enjoying your meal, sometimes not even talking but none of you really mind. And your girlfriend? She felt like she was eating noodles prepared by God himself! She made sure to watch closely but you never add anything to it... then how do you make it taste to heavinly!?

After you two were done with eating and cleaned up a little, she came up to you to ask you something that seemed like a very serious question to her.

"Y/N, I have a small question... how do you always make noodles taste so good?"

"Huh? What do you mean, K?"

"It's just that... whenever you do it, they taste heavinly but when I do my best to recreate it, it's not the same..."

"Is that why you waited for me with dinner today?"

The girl looked away with very faint blush, only assuring you that your guess was indeed correct. If that's the case, you might as well think of it some more... or maybe you already know the answer? Maybe it is love that counts?
