his resting baby angel ♡ 
synopsis: how i think the tokrev boys would react to you being asleep. 
characters: mikey, chifuyu, mitsuya, sanzu, kakucho, izana, ran, rindou, hanma, kisaki 
note/s: wow,,, okay,, i think i overestimated myself with this so i feel like i didn’t i repeated a few scenes buT THAT ISN’T THE POINT OKAY !!! anw, watch me crawl up my blanket because i spent three hours on this, also... new writing style, lmk what you think! special tag for @manjjiros bc kisaki 🫶(kakucho tag for @kakujis )
Tumblr media
mikey opens the door with the wood hitting the wall loudly, he was smiling from ear to ear, wanting to share what happened to his day, his gang had beaten up another and toman has effectively gained new members due to that incident and he couldn’t wait to gloat, but he stops in his tracks as he sees your form cuddled up against a plushie almost as tall as him (he’s very offended). he pouts as he climbs up the bed and carelessly opens your arms that were holding the plush animal. in such a deep sleep, you didn’t wake up and mikey pulled your form closer to his. his hand manipulating your arm and leg so that it wraps around him the same way that you wrapped around the plushie. with a quick kiss to your lips, he pouts. “i’m a much better cuddle buddy than that plush, you know?” he whines softly to your unconscious form as he lulls himself to sleep with the sound of your beating heart.
Tumblr media
home dates were chifuyu were always a fun activity to do, seeing as you and him don’t have the money to spend on extravagant dates on a daily basis. your hangouts consisted of you on his bed, or on top of him, in his bed– not in a sexual way, usually with you on his back as he lies chest down on the bed, you served as his personal weighted blanket and he served as your mattress. the both of you were catching up on the latest chapters of the books or mangas that you read before you felt a wave of sleepiness overtake you, the atmosphere in the room was comforting and you couldn’t help but let out a soundless yawn. chifuyu takes no notice and continues reading his manga for a few minutes before he finds himself getting hungry. “baby, you want to get delivery?” receiving no response, he feels your chest take in deep, slow breaths and he chuckles to himself as he realizes you dozed right on top of him. chifuyu picks up his manga and turns to another page as he lets you take your rest. “we’re so getting yakisoba when you wake up, you can’t complain. you’re asleep <3”
Tumblr media
with a sigh, mitsuya pushes the door to their apartment building open. he just had about a rough day, having to pry away baji from causing unnecessary commotion, having to ensure that toman’s uniforms were still in top shape (because he’d be pissed off for an entire week if he had to ask his sewing club members to patch up uniforms again) he was quiet for a moment, basking in the few seconds of silence he has before he has to accommodate his younger sisters’ woes and tantrums, but he was pleasantly surprised as he hear no signs of any noise, that pleasant feeling turned into paranoia as he immediately darts to their room, thinking the worst. he heaves out a sigh of relief as he sees you in the middle of mana and luna, sound asleep with your arms protectively wrapped around the younger mitsuyas. mitsuya smiles at the scene and takes a photo, making it into his lockscreen before he adjusts the blanket that covers the three of you. “‘m really lucky to have you, you know?” he whispers to your unconscious state as he presses a soft yet sincere kiss on your forehead. 
Tumblr media
“are you sure you ain’t bored yet, sweetheart?” sanzu asks as he writes down his signature on the document he possessed. you shook your head no as you scrolled through your phone, you assured him that you were fine with it as you settled more comfortably on his lap. sanzu knew that he wanted to spend time with you, but with the amount of paperwork that piled up while he was away, he knew had to finish them but he couldn’t just say no to you when you asked to spend time with him so this was him killing two birds with one stone. sanzu doesn’t know how long he was focused on his paperwork, his one hand on your back motioning soothing circles on your back and his other scribbling away on his work. but he stops in his tracks once he hears a soft snore escape your lips, twin scars twitch upwards as he presses a peck on your cheek, nuzzling your head deeper into his neck, “‘’re always so cute, sweetheart. rest well.”
Tumblr media
the movie was boring. kakucho seems to think so as his heterochromatic eyes were lidded as he tries to focus on the movie the both of you were watching. it wasn’t as if kakucho wasn’t interested at all, trust him, he tried being engaged to the film that you suggested, at the get go, it sounded like something that he would just scroll past as he browses for shows to watched but you just seemed so excited and how could he ever say no to you? so he keeps his eyes trained to the tv and his arm wrapped around you as your body was sagged at his side, using him as a pillow. the scenes of the movie were getting more and more interesting until it reached a point that it made him chuckle for a bit, his head turns to the side as he watches for your reaction, only to see you with your eyes closed, mouth dropped as you dozed off, kakucho could see a trail of drool forming on the side of your face and getting on his hoodie but he only looks at you fondly as he wipes it away and situates you into a better position, continuing to watch the show. “you know, this show isn’t as bad as i thought.” he says as he continues watching, giving you swift pecks every now and then. 
Tumblr media
when you mention your inability to sleep to your boyfriend, izana immediately picks you up and drives you to his favorite spot at three am, izana ensures your comfort as he lets you use his coat as a pillow. the two of you stared at the night sky and before you knew it, izana told you all about how he and kakucho used to stare at the sky and count snowflakes, seeing as no snow was falling as it wasn’t anywhere near christmas, you suggested counting stars and izana chuckles as he mentally counts with you. by the thirtieth star, he can hear your voice grow softer and softer, izana scoffed with a smile on his face as he realizes you fell asleep in his presence. “go and sleep, mahal. no one’s going to hurt you, not while i’m here.”  his comforting voice lulls you to sleep and you find yourself in the arms of your king as he continues counting the stars on your behalf. 
Tumblr media
it wasn’t like ran to come home late, but seeing as a couple of hoodlums decided that he was an easy target because he was alone, he knew he had to teach them a lesson because he can’t have weak hoodlums thinking that they can outtake haitani ran. he comes home later that night, you were immediately doting on him, asking him what happened, if he’s severely injured, or if he’s eaten, he waves all your questions with his answers as he cleans himself before he joins you to bed. “doll, what time do i wake you up tomorrow?” receiving no response, he peeks his head out of the bathroom to look at you. ran lets out a scoff as an annoyed expression overtakes his features, he finishes up quickly before he pulls you into his arms, huffing under his breath. “no fair. you should’ve waited for me.” he breathes softly into your neck as he inhales your scent, closing his eyes and chasing the feeling of sleep with you in his arms.
Tumblr media
when rindou called you up to hang out, you were not expecting him to just have you on display as he does his workout, with his fucking earphones on. so really, what was the point of you being there? “just twenty more minutes, babe. just have to finish this set up.” rindou says as he answers your question when you asked how long until he’s done. you sighed as you try to lie down comfortably on the bench press, it smelt slightly of sweat but the scent of his body wash overtakes the smell so it didn’t seem as gross, you draped your arm across your eyes, covering the light that was directly under you as you mentally counted the seconds of twenty minutes. you weren’t aware that you even fell asleep until you woke up to rindou squatting down and standing back up with you in his arms, motherfucker was using you as a dumbbell.
Tumblr media
to say that hanma unknowingly drags you into the havoc known as his life would be an understatement. if you were to count the amount of times you had to standby and watch as hanma body slams a hoodlum who attempted to touch you while you were with him, you’d count to four, which isn’t a lot but it was weird it happened four times. the two of you were walking home from a date when a delinquent attempted to beat hanma up, “hey dollface, go sit by the bench, this wouldn't take long.” you roll your eyes as you heed his words, not wanting to waste more time as you were full and kind of tired. you sat on the bench, leaning your head over the backrest as you watched the fight with droopy eyes and an unimpressed look on your face. “dollface! did you see what i did? did you see how i pummeled him to the– oh.” hanma smiles giddily at the sight of you asleep, he wordlessly carries you on his back as he walks the way home. “that fight was boring. i would’ve fallen asleep too.” 
Tumblr media
you piled up the last of kisaki’s paperwork and looked at him with a tired expression. “can we go now?” you asked as you settled on the couch with his coat wrapped around you. “i still have some paperwork to do.” kisaki answers as he takes a new stack and pushes his glasses up. the groan you let out almost made him want to chuckle but he held his laughter as you unconsciously pouted and made yourself smaller with his suit jacket. the pinstripe pattern complimenting your figure and he finds himself biting his lip discreetly. he sighs as you pull out your phone, set on ignoring him as punishment for bringing you in the office and allowing yourself to be bored. kisaki dives into his paperwork, not noticing how hours flew by. “do you want to use my card to buy yourself something pretty, doll?” kisaki asks, not looking up. receiving no response, he looked up and couldn’t help the grin that invaded his features as he sees you softly snoring at his couch. he went over to you, adjusting the makeshift blanket and pillow on your head before he looks at you with a gaze that he’d rather be caught dead than be caught with it. “you have no idea how much you mean to me, dove.” before he kisses your forehead and goes back to signing his name on the documents.

vena amoris
pairing: draco malfoy x slytherin!fem!zabini!reader
request: ok hello hello hello 😵‍💫 i have a request but only if u write for draco!! if not, please do ignore this.
i was kind of brain-rotting about this for a while now, so hear me out even if this might not be the best description ever. T__T
so, reader could be in the same house or not, this isn’t exactly a huge part of the plot. but draco has kind of been crushing on reader for a while, but reader keeps pushing him away—in a sense that they would keep denying draco’s attempts at wooing them, and would constantly reject anything he gets them (firm believer of draco's language being gift giving, at least one of them)
so clearly draco is like so whipped he grows so out of character and gets teased by his peers 😭 the ending is up to you, but i picture this as a fluffy (maybe the pushing away contributes to a bit of an angst factor) fourth or fifth year draco fic. your writing is so muah, by the way 🫂 much love, xx! ~ anon.
word count: 5,269 words (woah)
warnings: FLUFF, reader is blaise's twin (slay), a shit ton of swearing (sorry), theodore nott smoking his iconic cigarettes, reader kissing draco at the end, not proofread!
author's note: IM SO BAD WITH WARNINGS SO PLS LMK IF I MISSED ANYTHING. i kind of included high valyrian (as in the language from game of thrones + house of the dragon) bc im currently in my asoiaf era so YEAH. also, anon, i'm sorry if i botched this, i kind of messed up the end but this has been sitting in my inbox for so long; I REALLY HOPE YOU ENJOY&lt;3

Tumblr media
AS SNAPE DRONED on about Wit-Sharpening Potions and their advantages, you began fiddling with your silver bracelets, seeming to zone out of the lesson as the thought of dragons entered your mind. Your tongue licked your bottom lip rimmed with strawberry-flavoured gloss whilst you acted as if you were paying attention, flitting your eyes over to the back of Professor Snape’s greasy-haired head.
At this moment in time, you were bored out of your mind. There was nothing more riveting than the words of your historic fiction books, often containing stories about families with the blood of their dragons running through their veins. Instead, you were here in Potions class, preparing for your approaching OWLs, your chin resting in the palm of your hand as your eyelids fought to stay open. You did not even have the comforts of your twin brother, the well-revered Blaise Zabini, who had begun skipping class to see his “greatest love” (his words, not yours), Luna Lovegood. Others thought her to be a strange girl, especially because her mother was a powerful witch. Though Pandora Lestrange (who had never fitted in with her family) was known for her skills and her friendship with Regulus Black, she married Xenophilius Lovegood, who was now the editor of the Quibbler. He was stranger than his daughter, and many students theorised that it was him who filled Luna’s head with such… Such bizarre assumptions.
You, much to one’s dismay, quite liked the fourth year. Luna was often correct with her words and had interesting stories about her mother, to whom you had admired dearly.
Thankfully, something had caught your gaze. Unfortunately, it seemed to be much worse than the lecture you were enduring. Your eyes widened at the sudden appearance of a paper sparrow, the bird flying around in the air as it landed in the palms of your hands. You pulled a face, glimpsing at the faces around the godforsaken dungeon before stopping at a particular platinum-haired, blue-eyed boy, gazing at you with a goofy grin as the confusion written on your face contorted into vast annoyance.
The boy you met eyes with was the one and only Draco Malfoy. Son of the ‘wonderful’ Lucius Malfoy and beautiful Narcissa Black, he would’ve been raised with privileged views about the wizarding world, uttering vile words against those ‘below’ him and his maniacal pureblood ancestry. Quite frankly, you  had hated Malfoy ever since first year, regretting you had ever spoken to him because now…
Now he would not leave you be.
It had been five years since your first encounter. Draco had ensured that over the course of the half-decade, he’d never leave your holy presence. You could not, for the life of you, figure out what his obsession with you was about. Yes, you were pureblooded. Yes, you were Slytherin. Everything else about you did not, at all, reflect his persona.
Except, perhaps, his ever-repeating threats. The only difference between yours and his words against others was that you always had the will to act on them.
You were never one for affection. In the five years you’d been in this school, you hadn’t obtained a single crush. Kisses were shared in your fourth year with a Ravenclaw, but that was it. Your mother, the famed woman who had married seven husbands, but had died tragically and had left her with mounds of gold, had always taught you to not waste your time with boys in your academic years, for they were merely children. Instead, you should wish for a man, one like your father (who was also dead, but had died because of a disease when you and Blaise were young. Your mother still yearned for his presence daily).
You didn’t bother opening up the sparrow, knowing that it merely contained his one-hundredth love confession. What you did in reply was a little cruel, but you did not care. Instead, you crumpled the bird into a little ball right before him, seeing Draco’s expression crumble as you wore your signature sarcastic smile, throwing the paper ball behind you, huffing before looking back at Snape, who now had eyes on you.
“Miss Zabini,” Snape sounded out quietly, you realising that he had just witnessed you discard parchment across his floor. “Another brilliant display of Slytherin’s impeccable manners, I see,” he reprimanded, sarcasm encasing his tone as you refrained from correcting him. “Perhaps you’d like to continue this performance by littering the entire dungeon, just to make sure everyone is fully aware of your utter disregard for cleanliness and decorum.”
You pressed your lips together, hearing the quiet sniggers from other houses enter your ears as you exhaled through your nose, meeting Draco’s stare before glancing at Snape.
“I apologise, Professor,” you replied meekly, though not regretfully. Snape recognised this, but he did not say anymore, returning to what he said prior the supposed interruption.
Sighing to yourself after hearing another cry for your attention, you turned your head at the sudden ‘psst!’ from across the dungeon, the irises of your eyes growing dark as Draco shot you a wink. The sudden glint of his silver snake ring caught your eye, causing you to raise an eyebrow out of interest. Yet, you regained composure, tutting at his behaviour, staring at him no longer.
Draco Malfoy would be the death of you. The funniest thing of all was that he would not be delighted if such things ever came to be true.
Tumblr media
In the corners of the Great Library, you sat alone, your eyes widened with amazement as you whispered the words of a foreign language unbeknownst to many, smiling as you began to uncover the secrets of your fictitious world. However, from across your table, Draco and his small band of friends (consisting of Theo, Blaise, and Pansy) sat with their own share of textbooks. They did not, of course, share the same interest as you did. Draco kept a watchful eye, his chin resting in the palms of his hands, the pupils of his blue eyes dilating into hearts as Theo and Pansy shared a disgusted look. They weren’t disgusted by you, but Draco’s continuous rants about you.
“Merlin, isn’t she gorgeous?” Draco murmured, practically drooling over the pages of some novel as Blaise snatched it from under him, shaking his head as he sighed.
“I know that. She is my sister,” Blaise grumbled, his knuckles resting on his forehead. He whispered into Theodore’s ear, extremely bothered. “I cannot take this love-sick nonsense any longer—”
“You aren’t very good at whispering,” Pansy mocked, twirling her quill as she leaned into her seat, smirking at the fact that Draco hadn’t heard a single word.
“You’re acting like you hadn’t been doing the same with Lovegood the last month,” Theo pointed out, matching Pansy’s smugness as Blaise rolled his eyes.
“I haven’t been following Luna around for the last five years!” Blaise retorted, leaning back in his seat as he watched Draco twist his ring around his finger.
“She was staring at my ring earlier. Should I give it to her?” Draco suggested, no one paying attention to him as Pansy piped up.
“Perhaps I would be a better match for [Y/N/N],” Pansy joked, getting a reaction out of both Draco and Blaise.
“NO!” They said simultaneously, causing Pansy to tsk as she rested her legs on the edge of the wooden table. Draco then stood up, taking in a deep breath as Blaise furrowed his eyebrows at him. He would have protested, but Draco had already sauntered off towards your desk.
“Balerion... Zȳhon perzys iksin hae zōbrie hae zȳhon ñelly, zȳhon tīkuni sīr rōvabona giez lenton sia ipradārin bē isse pōja sȳndor skori ziry rēbagon,” you read fluently, biting your bottom lip from smiling ever so widely as you read the Valyrian words with awe. Your necklace dangled from your neck, hitting the constant stripes of your loose, Slytherin tie as you looked up suddenly, hearing someone clear their throat.
“Merlin’s left fucking tit,” you seethed, snapping your book shut as you met the one and only Draco Lucius Malfoy with a hard gaze, pushing your novel away from the platinum-haired boy so it didn’t feel his stench.
“Hello, [Y/N],” Draco replied, his voice ten times softer than yours (was your tone ever gentle?) as you ran your hands through your hair.
“I do not understand why you keep bothering me—”
“A gift,” Draco interjected, aggravating you even more as he took out his left hand, removing his ring that bore a snake. You furrowed your eyebrows, realising that it was the same ring you had eyed earlier and you stood up abruptly, looking up at his towering figure.
“A-are you serious—?” you began, disbelieved.
“I know how much you like your accessories and this would look great with your Yule Ball dress—”
“I do not want the stupid ring and I’m not even going to the—”
“It would look better on you than on me—”
“Shut up,” you groaned, not understanding how gravely Draco felt for you as he became quiet almost immediately, almost like an obedient dog. You were a little surprised, but you feigned nonchalance. “Listen, I appreciate the offering, but I looked at it for not even ten seconds! That does not mean I actually want it, Malfoy.”
Draco remained silent, almost like he was contemplating her words as her chest heaved of simmered frustration. And then, he nodded, giving you a brief smile before turning around, heading towards the Library’s exit. You pulled another face, irritated beyond compare before stuffing your hands in the pockets of your robes.
That was until you felt a cold metal in the right one.
You pulled it out, cursing under your breath as your head cocked towards Draco’s friend group, where your brother also sat. Scoffing at Draco’s notion, your feet carried you to Blaise, where you slammed the ring on his table, causing Theodore to sit completely upright.
“Well, hello there, love—” Theodore began with his deep voice, only to be swatted on the head by Blaise.
“Blaise, I swear on Salazar’s grave, if you do not get Malfoy to leave me alone, I will feed your organs to our dead stepfather,” you hissed, leaning forward as Pansy bit her bottom lip, fighting the urge to grin.
“Which one?” Blaise remarked, his eyes still trained on his book as you snatched it out of his hands, giving him a warning look as he sighed. “Just accept the ring—”
“NO!” You yelled, leaving the ring on the table as you thudded the novel against its wood before Theodore, once again, jumped at the noise as you left, leaving a vexed Blaise, an exasperated Irma Pince (who had flinched at the sudden outburst, and Pansy), who seemed to be falling in love with you every second.
Tumblr media
As the soles of your Doc Martens entered your Common Room the following week, you made your way over to the couch, rubbing your wrists because of the hair ties that had strangled them. Your gaze had been on them the entire time, so long that as soon as you looked up, a few stares were coming your way, wrinkling your eyebrows as you looked them up and down. It was natural for some Slytherins—mostly girls—to dislike you purely because of Blaise. Not your twin specifically, but they were jealous of the attention you received from his friends, Theodore and Draco. It was the same for Pansy, even though (as much as you admired her) she had been horrible to everyone she’s ever met.
In all respects, you were not rude. You just didn’t like talking with people. A totally understandable prospect, right?
Back to the situation at hand, you had just approached the couch, freezing when you saw the amount of people huddled around an object on the sofa. You tutted, weaving your way past, most likely stepping on someone’s toes. You only wanted to sit down and rest your feet.
“Salazar’s sakes, can you move—?!” You began to raise your voice, but your words quickly died down in your throat, noting the extremely large package resting on the velvet cushions of the emerald couch. You glanced at the girl beside you, recognising her to be Daphne Greengrass, who smiled slightly before handing you an envelope.
“It’s for you…” She nodded awkwardly, giving the box a glance before turning away from you. You looked at the envelope, seeing that the seal wax was in your favourite colour, the actual symbol being a dragon.
Curious, you opened it, your fingers lightly grazing the parchment as your eyes moved along the page, the cursive letters peaking your curiosity. There was a dry flower taped to the note and you picked it off with care, the corners of your mouth briefly curling when you saw your favourite rose, looking fresh.
‘Dearest [Y/N],
I hope this note finds you well. As the annual ball approaches, I wanted to extend an invitation to you. I've chosen a dress and jewellery set that I believe would compliment your elegance and beauty. Please consider it a gesture of goodwill, with no expectations or strings attached.
 I wanted to offer this gift and extend an olive branch in the hope that we can enjoy a pleasant evening together, even if it's just as friends. If you still decide not to attend with me, I completely understand and respect your choice.
Wishing you happiness and looking forward to whatever the future holds for us, whether as friends or acquaintances.
Sincerely,
D.M.’
“How romantic,” Pansy’s voice suddenly appeared against your ear, a smirk tugging on her lips as she looked you up and down, seeing you eye the box with agitation. You cock your head to face her, your lips pressing together.
“Go away, Pans,” you mumbled, scrunching the note up as you shoved it in your pocket. You kept the rose, however, safely in your other pocket, too pretty to be destroyed. You picked up the box, throwing a look to whoever else that dared to gawk at you before descending up the staircase towards your dorm with a huff.
“Did she like it?” Draco’s voice suddenly boomed in Pansy’s ear as she jumped, pushing the blonde boy away, still gazing at where you had gone.
“She hasn’t even opened it, you twat,” Pansy retorted, walking past him as she made her way towards Theo, giving him a pleading look as he pulled the cigarette from between his lips.
“What?” He asked in a hushed voice, but immediately widened his eyes when Draco began nearing them. “Shit—”
“Did she like the rose?” Draco asked once more, his gaze becoming frantic as he looked at the stairwell. Theo pinched the bridge of his nose, stubbing out his cigarette as he tossed it aside.
“I mean, she kind of smiled—”
“She smiled?!” Draco guffawed, his lips curving into a wide grin as he sighed dreamily, sitting on the armchair beside Theo. Both Pansy and Theo shared another look as the short-haired girl sucked in a breath, forcing a smile on her lips.
“I wouldn’t say that, Draco. Like, she was a little flattered that someone knew her favourite flower—”
“Rose.”
“Flower,” Pansy repeated, feeling irked as she crossed her arms. “But the smile dropped as soon as she saw it was you who gave her the dress.”
“She smiled,” was all Draco said, gleeful as he leaned into his seat, staring at the ceiling as he began to daydream.
“Fucking hell,” Theo muttered, shaking his head as he ran a hand through his brown hair. “What are we gonna do with this kid?”
Tumblr media
“You’ve got to be fucking shitting me.”
You had unwrapped the box. You had taken out the dress. You had taken out the jewellery, as well as the shoes and whatever else. You expected to hate everything in the gift box, predicting that you would’ve shredded the gown to pieces by now
But this guy had bought a dress so ethereal that it had suited all your tastes. You were satisfied with what was in front of you.
Donned with sequins, the dress was in a mermaid-cut style, which would’ve accentuated your curves perfectly. The bodice had a perfected pleated detailing on the waist, the gems glowing under the light of your room as your fingers itched to trail across the silk. The gown featured romantic puff sleeves which would line up your chest with a flattering square neckline. Overall, it was an airy dress that reached to the floor, creating a beautiful silhouette that would make you glow, the ivory satin of the dress increasing your beauty since it contrasted with your skin tone perfectly.
The jewellery was a whole different story. Draco had bought stones so expensive that you didn’t think you’d be able to wear them, the necklace could potentially weigh your neck down. The actual diamonds were in your favourite colour, but the crystals were silver and would rest above your cleavage excellently. There was also a matching ring with the same diamond.
Hesitantly, you reached for the ring, trying it on every finger. Shuddering, you raised your eyebrows, realising the ring would only fit on your actual ring finger. You scoffed, tossing the ring back into the box, disregarding the crème-coloured heels as you sat on the edge of your bed, head in your hands.
You were lost. This was too much. The dress was gorgeous. Simple, but exquisite. The jewellery was impeccable, and you wondered momentarily if these jewels actually belonged to the Malfoy family.
You turned your head, beginning to tug on your bottom lip with your teeth as you jigged your thighs up and down, at a crossroads. You couldn’t wear this and not go with Draco. That would just be downright cruel.
Damn, you began to think. Damn, damn, damn.
Tumblr media
“Blaise.”
No response.
“I know you can hear me.”
No response.
“Your book is upside down.”
“I think the fuck not,” Blaise shot back, checking to see if Draco’s statement was correct. Blaise narrowed his eyes, closing them fleetingly as he jerked his head to the side, meeting the blue, wide-eyed boy’s face with exasperation.
“Stop asking me about my sister.”
“No.”
“Merlin’s fucking balls, Malfoy—”
“I just want to know if she’s going with me tonight. It’s been days since I’ve given her the dress! I haven’t gotten an answer!” Draco interjected, his hands clasped in front of him, almost as if he was begging Blaise. His best friend slumped in his seat, dropping his book onto the table before him as he placed his hands behind his head.
“I. Do. Not. Know,” Blaise reaffirmed, granting him a sarcastic smile, his eyes locking onto someone else as he let out a groan.
You had entered the study hall, eyes scanning the classroom before they landed on your twin brother. You sighed in relief, fiddling with your watch as you cursed, noting it was five minutes past six.
As you stood before Blaise, you made eye contact with Draco, curtly nodding at him as you cleared your throat.
“Where’s Pansy?” You asked quietly, looking around the room once again to see if she was there. Blaise shrugged, which didn’t help you at all. “What the fuck do you mean by that?”
“I don’t know.When will people stop asking me questions I don’t have the answer to?” Blaise  questioned, causing you to roll your eyes before you fled, rushing down the hallways towards the dungeons.
Draco was staring at Blaise expectantly, his lips pressed together as he leaned forward. “Well?”
“End my life already,” he grumbled, closing his eyes. “She nodded at you. Which means she’s going.”
“With me?”
“No. Cormac McGlaggen.”
“WHAT—?!”
“SHUT UP.”
Meanwhile, you had found Pansy making out with some girl from Hufflepuff. Sighing, you pulled her away from the girl, causing the other to feel embarrassed as Pansy pulled your hands off her.
“What’s your problem?” Pansy muttered, fixing her hair as you threw her a look, smiling once you saw that the Hufflepuff had scurried off.
“I… need a favour,” you shrugged, smiling awkwardly as your lips thinned. She pulled a face, causing you to shove her shoulder.
“What is it, then?” You puffed your cheeks, looking around the hallway as you fiddled with your hands behind your back, wanting to pull out your hair.
“Needyoutodressmyhair,” you talked under your breath, causing Pansy to furrow her eyebrows as she crossed her arms.
“Eh?” You threw your head back, staring at the ceiling as you squeezed your eyes shut.
“I need you to dress my hair.”
A gasp escaped Pansy’s lips, her hands across her chest as she tilted her head, smiling mockingly as smiled at her back bitingly.
“Your first thought was me? Aw, [Y/N]!” Pansy waved you off, sighing contently, you having enough of her as you grabbed her wrist, dragging her away to your dorm.
Tumblr media
You had waited until everyone else was gone to exit the Slytherin Common Room, already infected with nerves as you stepped carefully across the floor, slowly walking towards the Great Hall. Surprisingly, you had finished getting ready (with the help of Pansy and a lot of magic) in under two hours, leaving you enough time to make sure you didn’t trip on the way to the Yule Ball.
You didn’t know what Draco had worn, wanting to see what he looked like—only to make sure he didn’t make you look bad. Pansy had done your eye makeup since you didn’t know how, your friend going for a [Y/F/C] eyeshadow palette that winged your eyes. Your lip colour was as deep as the richest of raspberries from the Forbidden Forest. Your hair was in a braided crown, white daisies blooming in the tresses of your locks as the rest of your hair flowed down, the length ending at your middle-back. Large stones hung from your ears, matching with your necklace that felt heavy on your collarbone.
Heels clicking against the stone of the castle, you finally got to the staircase that led straight to the Great Hall. You gripped the wall anxiously, Draco’s ring on your right ring finger as you peeked around the corner, eyes softening (only slightly) once your eyes had landed on your date.
From what you could see, Draco looked as handsome as he always was—you’d never admit that to his face. Draco was dressed in a robe tuxedo, his dress shirt and bowtie the same ivory white like your gown. The buttons of his shirt sparkled under the flames of the torches in the hallway as he checked his watch, scratching his chin as he waited for you. He also wore a black cumberbund, to your astoundment, his robes as dark as the bewitched night sky in the Great Hall. Lastly, his signature snake ring, the one you refused to keep the other week in the Library, bore his middle finger on his right hand, which defined the veins in his hand as he flexed it.
Now or never, now or never, now or never, you repeated in your mind, silently stepping out of the shadows. Your heels clicked against the first step, causing Draco’s head to pick up. Your breath caught in your throat as you caught his gaze, your hands falling to your sides as you walked carefully down the staircase.
You tried so hard not to trip, but luckily for you, Draco seemed ready to catch you as he stood at the end of the stairs, catching your hand as you instinctively reached out for him. You thanked him with a small smile, steadying yourself on the ground floor as you looked up at him, his towering figure seeming to fit in with you perfectly.
“Sorry. Sort of took my time,” you mumbled, scratching the space behind your ear. Abruptly, the jewellery set Draco gifted you suddenly felt light, no longer itching your skin away as Draco’s touch warmed your hands, your fingers coincidentally on his vena amoris in his wrist—vein of love—that led to his ring finger and connected to the veins of his beating heart. You gulped, praying he didn’t know that as he smiled softly, his gloved thumb running over the palm of your right hand.
“‘s fine. I got you something,” Draco replied, catching you off guard as you hesitated, your mouth ajar.
“You’ve gotten me enough things, Malfoy,” you chuckled, averse. You didn’t want Draco to spend so much on you—must he insist on buying you things all the time?
Yet, as soon as you saw the final gift, your lips parted in astonishment, staring at the corsage that Draco had taken out of his pocket. You looked up at him, the peach of the rose pinned to the corsage gleaming at you as he watched your amazed face carefully, scanning it for confirmation before he slipped it onto your wrist. You gulped once again, your throat raw as you didn’t know what to say.
“You… you didn’t have to buy me a corsage,” you murmured quietly, staring at your painted toenails, refusing to meet his gaze as his hand moved to link your arms together.
“What kind of date would I be if I didn’t get you a corsage?” he responded gently, earning a cool blush from you, clearing your throat as you picked your head up, nodding.
Draco sensed that you didn’t want to talk anymore, noting the redness that appeared in your cheeks. He decided not to speak on it, knowing that you would probably glare him to the ground. Instead, he led you towards the Great Hall, the soft sound of organs and harps entering your ears as the corners of your lips turned upwards, entering the room with a heart rate that quickened every second.
A number of students (from fourth year and above) were in attendance. Yet, every single pair of eyes were on the pair of you. You gripped Draco’s arm tightly, glancing at him as he reciprocated, leading you to where your friend group stood. The first dance hadn’t happened yet.
“Merlin, bless your souls,” Pansy sighed, faking tears as she hung off Theo’s arm, causing you to roll your eyes.
“Fuck off,” you tutted, pressing your lips together. You eyed her appearance, relenting slightly as you mumbled. “You look pretty.”
“Thank you,” she retorted, winking at you as Blaise appeared with Luna. Luna widened her eyes in admiration, reaching out to touch your puff sleeves.
“You look beautiful, [Y/N]. Like a dove!” she complimented sweetly, Blaise nodding in agreement, but refusing to say anything. He smiled, glancing at Draco, who only had eyes for you.
“Thank you, Luna,” you smiled, the only real smile you had given today. “You looked gorgeous,” you added, raking your eyes over the light blue satin of her gown.
“Guys, the first song is going to start,” Theo announced, his arm around Pansy as he dragged her to the floor, the pair of them giggling to themselves, seeming to be a little tipsy. Blaise also kissed the back of Luna’s hand, pulling her along gently as they made their way towards the middle of the room.
You glanced at Draco, your smile still lingering as you looked at your feet.
“Would you do me the honour and grant me a dance, Miss Zabini?” Draco murmured, his tone soft as your tongue poked your cheek, utterly wordless.
“I might step on your toes,” you breathed, your voice quiet as his thumb brushed against your fingers.
“I won’t mind,” he replied, smiling as he took the lead, causing you to follow him to the middle of the hall. You looked around, copying everyone else’s movements as you wrapped your arms around his neck, staring up at him with uneasiness.
“Relax,” he whispered against your ear, your shoulders immediately losing their tenseness as his hands pressed against your hips, guiding you as your feet followed his, syncing to the slow song that played in the background as the lights dimmed. You gazed into his eyes, not wanting to stare at anyone else, aware that others were sending you looks.
“Why does every girl have to have a crush on you?” you questioned, your gaze dropping as you felt unease. Draco tutted, tilting your chin up as you swallowed imaginary air, shivering under the coldness of his glove.
“Thought you didn’t care about anyone else’s opinion,” he mused, causing you to give him a bored look. 
“‘course I care. Just look at their patronising stares. It’s unnerving,” you grimaced, rolling back your shoulders as he twirled you around, his hands travelling up your waist as he picked you up, spinning you around whilst you gasped.
“I’m not looking at them. I’m looking at you,” Draco said softly, shrugging playfully as you scoffed lightly, feeling your cheeks warm once again. “You look stunning, [Y/N]. Absolutely stunning,” he whispered, his minty breath fanning against your face as your expression softened.
“Well, um, this is the gown you bought me,” you chuckled. You always felt weird whenever you accepted a compliment.
“It is,” he replied, his grin still tugging on his lips, “I may have picked out the gown, but it's you who makes it look so graceful… You are the definition of elegance, [Y/N] Zabini,” he whispered, a little breath escaping your lips as he brought you closer.
“I… I’ve hated you for so long,” you uttered, furrowing your eyebrows. “But you never gave up after the amount of times I’ve rejected you. Why?” Draco thought for a moment, taking in your delicate countenance.
“I don’t really know. I think I never gave up because I genuinely care about you. I saw something special in you, and I was willing to keep trying because I believe in us.” The entire time, Draco had kept true to his words, his voice fragile, as if he was going to break at any moment. He honestly could not believe that you had finally given him a chance.
You didn’t know what to say. You stared at him, disbelieved, tilting your head to the side as your expression faltered. And then, you knew what to do, your eyes flickering from his eyes, to his lips.
Hesitantly, you encaptured his lips with yours, your hands reaching up to his hair as Draco was taken by surprise, but kissed back nonetheless. You were never good with your words, but your actions always made up for it. Your noses touched as you mewled helplessly, allowing him to capture all of you as he smiled against your lips, almost wanting to scoop you up and take you out of here.
A flash suddenly caused you two to pull away, squinting your eyes as the pair of you turned to the side, letting go of each other as you stood there, mouth agape. Colin Creevey, a fourth year, had pictured your kiss with his rather massive camera, the younger kid smiling at the photo with satisfaction.
“Fucks sakes,” Draco grumbled at the fourth year as you picked up your dress, snatching the camera off Creevey with a stare so defiant, it could kill the Dark Lord himself.
“Hey—!”
“You people are not ruining tonight for me,” you snapped, knowing exactly who set this up, shooting Blaise and Theo a snarky smile before deleting the picture almost immediately, shoving the camera back into the boy’s arms before grasping one of Draco's fingers and leading him out of the floor, the Slytherin prince happily following behind you with an adoring smile across his lips.
The finger you just so happened to grab was his ring finger of his left hand. This very particular finger, as stated before, had a special sort of vein that growed throughout the body, stopping at the middle of Draco's heart—vena amoris.
Was it a coincidence that you took Draco's ring finger instead of his hand? I think not.
For he had fought his way into your heart for years, and now, you had entered his.

Helluva Rewrite: Loona
Okay, first things first, the redesign:
Tumblr media
Design notes: I wanted her fur to look like moon craters. Initially her eyes were blue, but then I was struck with the idea of having the color of hellhounds eyes and certain characteristics of their bodies reflect what ring they are from. I did a version from Wrath, but I liked the idea of Luna being from Sloth, so I conceded that she’s a sloth/wrath mix breed. I wanted hellhounds to be from all rings (so are imps) so there are variations. I think sloth and wrath fit her best, so she has the slim and small build of a sloth hound but the horns, fangs, and claws of a wrath hound. Also she's from Sloth bc Viv's sloth is pink and that's my fav color lmao.
She’s essentially the same in this as she is in the show, minus the abuse, cruelty, and general bitchiness of her character. She is incredibly lazy, often just laying around and never really doing the job Blitzo assigned her. She is also extremely introverted, and social situations cause her stress, which lead to her wrath side making her lash out. She genuinely wants to make friends and be nice to others, but the effort is too great and the stress upsets her. Generally, she is very lonely, she wants to be friends with the IMP team but can’t figure out how. 
Now, some relationship stuff:
Blitzo: She is extremely wary of Blitzo in this. This will be because she has only known him for close to a year (9 or 10 months) as he adopted her very soon (I did this so she would be an actual teenager and not a 20-year-old woman acting like a thirteen-year-old). Blitzo adores her and desperately wants her to love him unconditionally, but she’s put off by his affection and continues to keep him at arms length. She likes the idea of being loved so purely, but he’s just too much most of the time. 
Moxxie: She picks on Moxxie (much less cruel in the rewrite) because he’s the smallest and weakest imp she knows and where she grew up the weak get eaten. Surprisingly, she is also the most comfortable around Moxxie because of his lack of strength. She isn’t threatened by him at all, and has occasionally made jokes with him that weren’t at his expense. Other than that, she finds him mildly annoying most times. 
Millie: She likes Millie the most if she had to pick. Millie is genuinely kind and likes to ask Loona about her day and treats her like just another person. Still, Loona doesn’t trust it because there’s always some trick and Millie could easily kill her if she wanted (which will add drama during the DHORKS episode). Loona makes an effort to talk to Millie more than anyone (Blitzo aside because they live together) and they mostly only relate on anything concerning violence. 
AAAAAnd that's all i wanna do today had some really awful things happen recently so i mostly did this to keep my mind off it.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Scara likes watching mosnter high booyork and his favorite character is luna mothews
He has hello kitty, sanrio, miraculous ladybug shirts and he hates Adrien and marrinette, his favorite character is layla
Scara and you watch bluey and you have to comfort him bc he never got familial love
Scara has 5 plushies of kuromi and 2 keychains of hello kitty and cinnamoroll
He was the annoying anime kid in middle school and start of highschool
He cries to you if a cat he found on q sidewalk hisses at him and runs away
Fuckin cries to washing machine by mitski and then says "this is cringe" and makes hotpockets
He is lactose intolerant and egg intolerant (twinsies)
He hates 4chan like all of us
He loved my little pony and the jar incident ruined him as a kid
He had unlimited internet access at 8 thats how he found out.
The three betrayals were not everyone dying it was: a kid left school and never came back, his neighbor moved, and raiden left him at a playpark

Finished Violetta season 3
Idk how to feel now that i have no content left to watch (outside of the reunion special and movie that I consider non-canon), this is my comfort show and to have it gone kinda sucks
I guess some thoughts on season 3 as a whole:
Still my least favorite season, but it wasn't bad like I remembered
Gery and Clement feel like such pointless additions who would've been better off being one-off antagonists for like 10 episodes at most.
The Milton plotline is genuinely so stupid and forgettable. Once he's gone at the halfway point and he's nonexistent, it feels like "why did we waste so much screentime on him?"
Vilu and Leon should've been together the whole season, facing barriers in their relationship but never breaking up. The season was at its best when they were together, and it's genuinely so fucking annoying that they were together for the longest amount of episodes in season 1 over season 2 and 3 when Tomas was still a thing.
Fuck the whole Roxy storyline, it was so aggrivating
The side couples' plots were kinda boring imo. I like Naty and Maxy but their storyline was a bit blah. Diego and Francesca have telenovela drama and then just kinda exist in the show it feels like. Broduey and Camilla's relationship was super boring imo.. I'm not very interested in Federico even if Ludmila was super interesting this season. And I don't even care the slightest about Gery x Clement, Pablo x I forgot her name (though Pablo deserves to be happy after losing Antonio), or Nicolas x Jade. All are actual screen waste imo
Angie and German are hard for me to root for bc he and Maria were together when she was a little girl? Even if she's like 30 in the present, the whole knowing her back then aspect ruins any interest in the relationship for me
I actually thought the Andres love doctor plotline was kinda funny, and it matches how so many queer people in my life are amazing at analyzing others' relationships but struggle with finding relationships themselves
Ludmila's development was definitely the highlight of the season, but I don't think it's enough to carry the season
The whole "new kids in the studio" plotline was cool for giving Maxi his career development story, but the characters were weird. It was weird how one of them was played by an actress in her 20s and was set up as Andres's love interest, only to suddenly leave, Meanwhile, the rest were just children who looked younger than the studio students we saw up until that point (being like 12-15 instead of 17-18)
The last few episodes felt so rushed through with a ton happening, which was annoying considering how much the conflicts dragged on throughout most of the season
The show is still my comfort show bc I love the characters (most of them) so much
I'll definitely watch Soy Luna soon, and I'm excited since it'll be my first time watching it. But it probably won't be until a while into 2024. I work 12 hours a day 4-5 days a week, and I think I'm going to watch stuff that's lower commitment for now. Plus, I have a massive game backlog. My free time is super limited
Thanks for reading my thoughts while I rewatched Violetta! I don't know what I'll post about moving forward (definitely Soy Luna but that might not be for a hot minute), but it was nice to interact with everyone! I hope we can continue!

Tumblr media
Hello, frens, bebs, pallarinos, and peeps! So this is a little later than I anticipated *cough by two weeks cough*, but I've finally figured out what to do to commemorate reaching 100 followers! I'm so incredibly grateful to each and every one of you splendid internet geckos who chose to follow my silly little blog and I want to do something awesome for you guys!
Between today and July 24th, 2023, you can send in drabble/oneshot requests based on the characters and prompts below and I will whip up a masterpiece in your honor!
*UPDATE: NEW DEADLINE IS NOW AUGUST 1ST, 2O23
Tumblr media
First, a couple of Terms & Conditions (please don't skim these to get to the I Agree button they're actually quite important):
I'll only be doing fluff and some light angst for this since it's what I feel most comfortable writing. Best I can do are tongue kisses, ass-grabbing, and maybe a little allusion to NSFW, but there will be nothing explicit. I also don't do non-con, cheating, SA, underage, grooming, or mean doms. Seriously, have you seen this blog? Dragons and suburban shenanigans are my wheelhouse.
Only one prompt at a time please. You can send in multiple requests if you'd like, although I'd recommend spacing them out by a couple days.
When you send in the prompts, you can specify the characters you would like included in it as well as any particular plot details. Don't be afraid to reach out to me in my inbox or DMs.
These will all be centered around Attack on Titan since it's the fandom I'm most invested in rn, and in a Modern AU bc I don't know if I can write much about canon without doing more historical research on the time period around which it's based. If you'd like it to take place in the Eremin family au, pls use one or both of these emojis when sending in your request: 👨‍👨‍👧🐚
All characters are aged up
For now, this'll just be the characters interacting with each other since I'm not that experienced with y/n writing just yet. Mayhaps for a future event.
Must be 18 years or older to participate. Please have it on your blog when you submit your request. I'm not taking any requests from anons, so if you send it through there I will CHUCK IT INTO THE SEA!! No, but seriously, don't send your requests on anons.
ALL DRABBLES/ONE-SHOTS WILL BE BETWEEN 100-800 WORDS (kinda stretching the definition of drabble, but considering I usually go way past that, this kinda doubles as a writing challenge for me)
Open to everyone, especially followers!
I do reserve the right to turn down any requests that break the rules or otherwise make me uncomfortable. I will try to reach out to you with an explanation of why I can't do it, but please be respectful of my choices.
Expect these to come out July through August. I'll do my best to write these as they come, but I also want to take the time to refresh myself on the characters or do some small research for the prompts as well as tend to other stuff in my non-tumblr life.
Now with that out of the way, onto the fun stuff!😁

The idea of a character who comes off as harsh but deep down cares more than anyone, or a friend who is a bit hard on you but because she loves you, is extremely common worldwide, but Japan even has the tsundere archetype and such.
The idea with Rei and Usagi is that Rei loves her and wants her to succeed so she pushes her. It's very very obvious in the moments where it matters that Usagi is Rei's best friend, and their friendship in the 90s anime is actually extremely well-done.
In that screenshot at the end someone says their relationship develops into 'sisterhood' and you make fun of it but idk if you have siblings... 'sisters' is very apt. They push each other's buttons but they know each other inside and out and that makes them closer. Even though they bicker it's a relationship founded on deep trust, understanding, and affection.
I don't dislike your blog overall and some of your criticisms of the 90s anime are very valid but I think you're wrong on this one. In S1 their relationship does develop a lot from just fighting bc they don't like each other to growing attached, Rei comes to be very fond of Usagi. In later seasons this foundation has already been laid so while Rei does continue to be mean to Usagi it very much is with the understanding that she loves her very dearly. The Rei-Usagi relationship is one of the things the 90s anime did extremely well.
Let me say this
Last night when I did that post, it actually come spur of the moment since I was in Sailor Moon Stars looking for a particular scene for a friend of mine so we could discuss. I was watching some of the episodes of Stars when this scene
Tumblr media
Popped up
So I was like " Hold up They supposed to get character development but she is still calling her a crybaby. She is still saying the same thing they she had said to her since the beginning. If they supposed to be evolving and developing then that should be something she should stop calling her because she knows how upset and irritated she gets but she still does it. And for what? to get under her skin. We had 170 plus episodes where they went through at lot of shit together, died for each other and still calls her a crybaby? Even tho she knows Usagi wear her heart on a selve? "
So that's why I decide to do that photoset which I wasn't even looking to do because I was looking for something else dealing with Stars. From the beginning of the series which yes they don't like each other and she's calling her a crybaby to the end of the series which she is still calling her a crybaby.
It didn't take me that long to find all of those scenes that she say nasty things to her. I know they have moments where they show them being nice which one in particular is when Chibiusa is black lady and she is comforting her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Which is a really good scene.
Also my fave scenes in season one when they talk about Mamo and she tells her to be happy with him.
Tumblr media
Also in a scene in Stars when she trying to stop her from going after Mamo by herself and fails. Of course in Season one finale when she is the last one standing to fight a DD girl and the things she say to Usagi is heartfelt.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know about those scenes but they are too many scenes like the scenes I showed in that photoset. To the point that it's easier to find scenes that Rei saying some nasty shit to Usagi and it's harder to find scenes where they have nice moments. Which that shouldn't be the case at all. It shouldn't took me like 10-20 minutes to find a lot scenes that she just saying some mean shit to her. Which it literary took me 45 mins to put that photoset together. I started put it together at 11:29 pm and I posted it at 12:25 am. I was going to put some more pics in that photoset but I exceeded the limit of 30 pics. So minus the screenshot that was from a FB group and Rihanna gif that was 28 pics of Rei saying mean things to Usagi.
That 28 pics WAY to many.
The main reason why I stopped watching S besides Luna calling her an idiot because every single time Usagi opens her mouth her comes Rei saying something mean. To the point I am saying over and over again " Why are you like this?" While sometimes Usagi go toe to toe with her , most of time it's not even necessary for even do that to Usagi. Most of times Rei may something to someone else and Usagi maybe backing her up.
Like the scenes with Mako in S
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Like why she had to do that? Was that necessary at that moment? No Especially when it was backing Rei up about telling them things that Mako is worried about.
Like why she have to be like this?
Like she always have her " Let's roast Usagi everytime she say something" on and never cuts it off unless the plot permits her to do so.
I am Aries as well so I know we have smartass mouths, are blunt, no nonsense and can be sarcastic but damn I know how to cut that off. I am not trying to pissed people off every single time I open my mouth. I know when to joke around with people and know who not to joke around with.
Also with my set of friends, I was considered the no nonsense but Mom of the group since I was oldest. They knew I don't play that but they knew I love them and push them. I would never say the shit Rei say to Usagi to none of my friends. Every person have a limit of what they take and I wasn't going to cross a line they would fuck up a friendship.
Rei feels like she wake up every day just ready to piss off Usagi with some mean shit because she doesn't like the way Usagi acts.
As for siblings, I do have siblings. I have an older sister and brother which makes me the baby of the family. Yes we do roast each other. We have certain jokes that we say to each other and go back and fort but we have a limit. If we say something out of pocket to each other we going to let each know that this joke hurt and it's below the belt and it will never be said again. I love my brother and sister a lot and I know they love me as well but majority over our realtionship is not us roasting each other to get a damn reaction out the other.
My realtionship with my older sister is one that I have a deep bond with. I love my sister to death and I know someone messes with me see will protect me and I will do the same for her. I know I get on her nerves since I am the baby and she get on mine but at the end of day if both of us are not laughing at the shit we say to each other, that's a big fucking problem. If we said something to other person that offends, we will tell each other, say that shit hurt and apologize which it will never be said again. My sister is really to check me if I say some off the wall shit which an older sister supposed to do. I will check her if she say something that supposed to be a joke but it hurt my feelings. I can come to her if I have a problem and she will push me to do what I need to do. She always have my back and I know she loves me.
So lets ask this.
Do anytime where Rei and Usagi say something to each other, are they laughing at what the other person has said? Do they realize what silly shit they are saying to each other and just fall to ground laughing?
I have seen most of the time that Rei say some shit and Usagi end up crying..
Because to me it's a not roast or ribbing if the person you are roasting are not laughing and not having fun as well.
When I am roasting with either of my siblings, we are going to make sure that all of us are on the ground laughing and having a good time. It's not a good time if the party doing the roasting is having a good time but the person who is receiving the roasting is not.
It more ways to show you love someone them 95% of the time you are roasting shit out of them with some mean shit to get a reaction out because you know you are getting to hit a nerve over and over again.
Rei is always saying something out of pocket and when Usagi say " Hey You are being meanie" she don't apologize she just double down more with something else hurtful.
Like in episode 94 when she want to be more of a wife to Mamo and they was at the concert, Mako apologize, Luna apologize but this what she says
Tumblr media
All she had to do was say a simple "I'm sorry" but the writers got her playing " the tsundere" character so well they couldn't let her say a simple apology but she can say this to her which wasn't needed.
So to me no it's not a sisterhood. A sisterhood knows each other bounties and not push them.
A sisterhood knows that if this word hurt their sister they will stop using it and apologize.
Now in the manga, crystal, and most def PGSM it is a sisterhood.
Rei does rib her in PGSM but she knows when to stop and they do have that sisterly bond.
Why you think it's so many fanfics of Rei betraying Usagi?
Fanfics of Usagi leaving the group and going to America because she was tired of Rei, Luna and the other girls treatment of her.
Which majority of the fanfics steam from the 90's portray of their " friendship" since the 90's anime was pretty much the first adaption most SM fans watch.
If they did have a sisterly bond you wouldn't have fanfics like that.
But ok.
You have all the right in the world to disagree with me because that is your opinion and you bought the reason why you feel like that. Your opinion is not wrong because it's your opinion.
In my opinion, the 90's anime didn't do a good job to show Rei and Usagi realtionship and I will stand on my opinion.

It Works! ...If You Don't Think About It Too Hard, or: To Write A Good Romance Means Treating Your Audience With Respect
so!! I've gotten to chapter 9 on ffxv new game+ and oh. my god. it really cements just how much of a Not Character luna is when I barely even see her on screen before she fucking dies (not counting childhood flashbacks I think it was like, maybe 4 or 5 times of her as an adult, keep in mind that this is the royal edition I'm on, too) and I have a better perspective on just why lunoct is hot garbage. yes it's gonna be another one of those rants so grab the popcorn, all ye 7 people who have encountered this post on your dash.
in this particular playthrough, I decided to come in with a more open mind than usual and try to at least see the other side, and so maybe I figured I'd look for so-called "pro" lu///noct scenes, just to even out the playing field I guess and maybe gain a fresh perspective on their bond. lemme just say it is fresher, now.....in the anti lunoct sense.
so even after I saw those early scenes of noct very blatantly reacting to the impending wedding with pure utter boredom, I kept my eyes peeled (read: I was actively grasping for crumbs and straws bc things already weren't looking too hot) and caught notice of how every time luna's name was mentioned to noct, his eyes would widen just a tad, or maybe he'd crack a smile. like, eh, ok, it's maaaaaaaaaybe a puppy love thing if you do what I did and just blindly eat what you're fed like a chicken instead of thinking critically. BUT EVEN THEN, not once did I get the sense what he felt for luna was actually serious, the way the game intended to portray all along. just "aw, he's being shy, that's sweet I guess? *shrug*"
.....eeeeeeeeven though noct is literally just shy as a person like that's literally one of his main defining character traits and doesn't automatically constitute romantic intentions just bc he displays this behavior towards a woman. or at least you should come to this conclusion if you flip on that dusty lil switch in your brain that you turn off specifically to look at trashy guilty pleasure romance media and thus momentarily avoid acknowledging silly, frivolous things like, *scoff*, "good writing". (yes I know you do it, we all do)
so, anyway, I gleaned that even if I saw things from a point of view where noct had so-called "feelings for luna", it was just a "sheltered teenage prince gets a small fluffy crush that will inevitably fade in a couple months and you, the player, are just a parent sadly waiting from the sidelines to comfort him from that eventual pathetic fizzle into nothing" love, not a "his world would literally be shaken irreparably after her brutal death and he continues to pine for her endlessly afterwards only to ultimately marry her in a weird and honestly kinda creepy ghost wedding and have a supposedly beautiful happily ever after even though, y'know, they're fucking dead" love. already not promising, I know.
then I got to chapter 9, and was hit with a massive revelation thanks to having finished the game already and knowing how things will play out on luna's end: this entire time, noct and luna have not shared one single conversation with one another, face to face, as adults, and their relationship WILL stay that way permanently. that realization popping into my head upon reading the chapter 9 loading screen singlehandedly changed EVERYTHING positive I attempted to give to their "romance" and threw it all out the window. additionally, I also read some lunoct-critical posts here as another refresher—which, again, required me to actually turn on my brain. It's clear that when you take that plus noct just smiling 2 or three times plus how ffxv literally spells out how luna does not know noct at all, they have less than jack shit when it comes to romance.
and don't take my word for that last part, it's outright fully confirmed in this page of ffxv official comic anthology: volume 1 that, at the very least, luna puts noct on a pedestal and basically doesn't know the real him, imagining him as a literal GALLANT PRINCE ON A WHITE HORSE (er, chocobo).
Translation:
Gentiana: “Has the notebook arrived?”
Luna: “Yes, Umbra just brought it now.”
Luna: “Though we cannot meet, he is growing into a fine prince suited for a white horse.” (girl,, he is a socially anxious nerd who hates veggies and constantly takes naps. he's clearly still just a kid at this point and that is emphasized multiple times in ffxv's story. like, honey, hate to break it to ya but you're making shit up in your head to mold noct into your "ideal" man)
Gentiana: “Lunafreya...”
“A white horse...?” (SGDODHDWBSLEJ EVEN GENTIANA'S CONFUSED HOLY SHIT)
Tumblr media
that's the key here: for all the split second stares noct gives at luna being mentioned, and the claim that SO MANY PEOPLE SPOUT abt how luna and noct "actually know each other well" thanks to that stupid ass notebook, even the devs themselves are taking humorous digs at how no, actually, they're blindly putting each other on an unreasonable pedestal and don't understand each other as people, just beacons of admiration. Even if the ffxv team is making light of this idolization and playing it for laughs in the context of this officially licensed manga, the fact that they even canonized it at all should be cause for concern regarding the relationship's integrity.
and.....yeah, that's the thing with lunoct that pisses me off.
if a game has to deceive you into thinking that there's somehow more to a romance by adding cute brief smiles instead of genuine communication, and tells you that you have to blindly follow its word that the romance is real, true, honest to god love and not "heehoo girl pwetty *monke noises*", that is the writer actively avoiding making any effort to flesh said romance out, and treating its audience like it's too stupid to notice.
and as a writer myself, I cannot begin to tell you the sheer degree that kind of lazy, demeaning condescension towards readers INFURIATES me. but to hopefully convey it, I want to show you this exchange dialogue between two love interests from the 2013 movie "Her":
"Samantha, why are you leaving?"
"It's like I'm reading a book... and it's a book I deeply love. But I'm reading it slowly now. So the words are really far apart and the spaces between the words are almost infinite. I can still feel you... and the words of our story... but it's in this endless space between the words that I'm finding myself now. It's a place that's not of the physical world. It's where everything else is that I didn't even know existed. I love you so much. But this is where I am now. And this is who I am now. And I need you to let me go. As much as I want to, I can't live in your book anymore."
compared to this infamous exchange between noct and an unnamed little girl he encounters in chapter 12, verbatim:
"Prince Noctis, were... were you excited to marry Lady Lunafreya? Because she was really excited to marry you! She looked so happy the day her dress arrived. She really loved you, Prince Noctis."
"I... Thank you."
that. that is the difference between show vs. tell. THAT is the difference between putting passion and effort in showing people a meaningful, beautiful romance that came from the heart vs. shouting to us that it's there, as if we are too stupid to understand otherwise. this mind numbing spoon-feeding is how ffxv manages to somehow give us absolutely no genuine, meaningful proof of lunoct's credibility as a romance yet simultaneously shove its existence down our throats: ffxv gives us scant crumbs, forces the player to swallow them, and expects the player to enjoy it without question like it's three-michelin-star filet mignon.
And if you are a writer, please, PLEASE do not do this. People will figure it out, they will start to realize there's nothing under the curtains, they will start to feel pissed and insulted, even if there are a good few fans that ultimately stick in spite of all the backlash.
Treat your audience with the respect they deserve. Treat them like people, and not 5 year olds that you have to sloooooowly read an ABC book to in order for them to fully understand its contents.

Hiii Space!!
I love love love your planet personifications and I was wondering what the lore surrounding moons and other celestial objects (asteroids, comets, etc) is in your Milky Way fandom?? And also also are you comfortable with people making fan characters/oc’s for your Milky Way fandom creation?? (These two questions do actually go hand in hand, I promise haha!!)
- your most cringefail selfshipping follower, Ezra <3
howdy!
i've actually designed a lot of other objects, include moons, stars, nebulas, etc. i thinnnnk the current count is around 55 characters.
now moons are pretty diverse. the main thing that classifies them as "moons" is just the fact that they orbit a planet (or a dwarf planet or even an asteroid). bc of this, my moon characters as just as diverse. all of the major ones are humanoids (titan, luna, ganymede, europa, etc.) while most of the smaller ones are personified as animals that the planet associates with (mars has two dogs, jupiter has birds, saturn has reptiles, uranus has rodents/bunnies, neptune has fish/amphibians, and pluto has cats). there are a few exceptions tho (like jupiter's inner 4 moons are very small in size, but are personified as little girls). don't have too many good drawings of them, but here's titan, luna, and ganymede!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the relationship a moon will have with their planet also varies. for jupiter moons, its more familial. for earth and luna, they're very close friends. for saturn moons, the relationship is a little more professional. etc. etc.
as for asteroids, they kinda follow similar rules to moons on if they're a humanoid, and smaller asteroids will be animals or monsters. they kinda just vibe in the solar system lmao. the asteroid belt is led by ceres, the "queen of the asteroid belt". she has a big rivalry with jupiter, who tends to bully her asteroids lmao.
comets are similar again. however i kinda always picture them as shitty lil dardevils who swing by the sun just to hurl insults at him hheheheh. living life on the edge.
god i realized ive written so much and i havent even gotten to stars or nebulas yet adghjgasdh uhhhhhhhh
stars are very fun. they all kinda look like sol but with different colors depending on what kind of light they give off (more red, more blue, etc). theyre kinda the "main" population in the universe and are all weird lil guys. in contrast to planets, the follow pretty strict life cycles, turning into red giants when they get old and exploding, with their corpse then turning into a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole. i tend to picture planets as the most "human" of the personifications, so stars can be kinda weird and a lil more eldritch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i'll leave nebulas for later lmao, but thats the basic stuff with my little space ocs!
if you do want to make ocs in my little world (been thinking of naming it something like "geocentric" since earth is the main character lmao), go ahead, have fun! just make sure to link back to me. but of course, the milky way fandom is fairly big with a lot of folks making their own interpretations of the planets, so if ya instead wanna make your own thing outside of my oc world, go nuts!

Happy birthday, Astro!!!
Tumblr media
Here he is, handing you a fic!
This is just a short piece of fluff for my All Siblings AU, mostly just to get into writing the characters. Astro... isn’t actually in it all that much, bc it was an idea I had and then I remembered it was almost Astro’s birthday.
Enjoy! Or don’t I guess. I’m not your mom.
Horse Discourse
"What are you talking about?" Uran did her best to sound snide and condescending, but all things considered she just sort of seemed indignant and vaguely offended. She had nestled herself in the corner of the couch, comfortable enough to make even the most hedonistic of bed-buyers jealous.
Atlas sat at one end of the sectional sofa, body turned to face her. He was glowering, but what else was new?
"I'm talking about holding a spell for days with no sleep to protect a city she had only known about for a week!" Atlas asserted his opinion on the debate with emphasis and no small amount of vitriol. He crossed his arms and glowered harder.
Cobalt spoke up from the other end of the couch. "Yeah but... she also got trapped in the mines for a week, too. And she definitely could have pushed that minecart when she first got stuck down there..."
"They're big mines! She probably got lost!" Atlas gestured emphatically and nearly bared his teeth as he shouted.
Uran turned to face the tallest sibling. "Yeah, shut up Celestia Enjoyer. At least Cadance does something every once in a while. All Celestia does is make Twilight do her job for her." She started sitting up, getting invested in the conversation. She knew what she was talking about and was going to make sure everyone else knew, too.
Cobalt wasn't going to take this slander! "Hey! At least Celestia didn't try to plunge the world into eternal night!"
Uran launched forward onto her hands and knees, not even trying to contain herself. "Luna was abandoned by her sister! Everyone ignored her and she was desperate for any sort of attention! Anybody would have snapped!" Uran's propensity to solve problems with her fists was just barely being held in check.
"Heh." Atlas sneered, "Cadance never did anything bad. Because she's the best. I win."
"Cadance is lame as heck! She's the most boring princess! Who cares about love? That's a stupid thing to be the princess of!"
Cobalt nodded. "Yeah, sorry Atlas, but being in charge of the sun is way cooler and more important. The ponies and everybody else can only grow food because of Celestia."
Atlas looked at him blankly, opting to ignore the youngest sibling. "Cobalt, you're a robot. Why do you care? You don't need food."
Cobalt frowned slightly. "Well, yeah, but a lot of my friends do, and so do the animals at the shelter..."
Uran was about to explode, not happy in the slightest about being ignored. "Celestia didn't even show up until after Nightmare Moon had already been def-"
The conversation was interrupted as Astro Boy himself stepped into the room. He was partially singed, and there was a distinctive layer of concrete dust on his hair and shoulders. He was definitely fresh out of some sort of city-endangering battle.
He looked tired. "Hey, everybody. What's going on?"
Cobalt answered him, wanting to get him out of the room and into a shower and a nap as quickly as possible.
"We're discussing who the best princess in MLP is."
Astro blinked -- partly in surprise, and partly because some rubble had fallen in his eye.
"Oh." He knew his siblings were big fans, and he watched it with them on occasion, but it had never really captured him. He did like the main character, though. "Um, I guess I like Twilight Sparkle...?"
Uran and Atlas both groaned loudly and emphatically, Uran throwing herself back into her corner. Cobalt grimaced a bit, but didn't say anything.
Uran had no sympathy for her bedraggled brother. "Of course you would pick the coward's choice! That's the most boring opinion anybody's ever had!"
"Uran, why are you always so mean about everything?" asked Astro, who really didn't save the city just to come home and get bullied about his opinions on a show he didn't watch.
Not bothering to get up, she shrugged. "'Cause it's fun."
"Hmph. Well, I'm going upstairs. Have fun, I guess."
And with that, the eldest sibling left them to their own devices.
After a minute or two, Uran stuck her hands emphatically out in front of her face. "Okay but listen, Luna had such a good character arc-"

i heard send in headcanons so i am summoned (srry i have like one brain cell for my fav characters)
one of my favs is meteor gaming nights. blake and terra pull ZEL, ace, and taka into gaming with them. taka and eve are decent, zero is Really good, terra goes out of her way to sabotage ace (who is terrible at video games) at any opportunity. usually blake and terra and zero dominate but sometimes lumi will just absolutely wash blake. nobody can explain why but they all secretly enjoy seeing it.
another one is that ace would rlly get along with the orphanage kiddos, and is just Really good with kids as a whole. i imagine they'd get along a ton w/ noel esp, since they both have the "overshadowed and dismissed by a family member" in common, and they'd love performing tricks for the kiddos to make them laugh. shelly and ace friendship my beloved too. (also allsuits ace having a multicolored suit w/ timeskip noel...)
i love thinking abt characters that would nickname their mons-- i imagine nicknames are more common in-world than they're made out to be. some characters i can see nicknaming their team-- cain, lumi, julia, ace, titania (literary references, hehe), laura, hardy, fern (wouldn't call them that in front of other people because he has a Reputation, but deffo has like. carefully handpicked names), florinia starts to do it for a few mons post-lati-- stuff like that
aya and ace get along well during the (really long) time that she's kidnapped by meteor and grow pretty close even after that. they'd have treated her courteously while she was prisoner and made sure she was treated well and taken care of. she'd likely have found them as endearing as she Could find an enemy bc she can't help having the slightest soft spot for them because they remind her of cain and she misses him a lot even though of course she'd never admit that? ace's best friend is taka-- who also falls into bad habits of deprecating himself as much as they try to uplift him just as aya tends to do to herself-- so sometimes they just sit with her quietly and let her talk about anything and try to uplift her in the same way-- she puffs up at this at first because why would she open up to someone she barely knows, especially an enemy? but they treat her kindly and are patient and always meet her with a smile whenever they see each other-- she's spent too much time around sirius, who's eternally sharp and sour, and being around them who just unconsciously reminds her of home is a comfort.
not really a headcanon but i love imagining charas in flower crowns and their reactions to them bc they're adorable.
sorry for long post i'm a disaster and headcanons are like. a floodgate for me i have So Many
Tumblr media
i drew one of my favs of these cuz oh my god- all of these are so good
i can definitely see ace being good with kids, and them connecting with noel- and omg also aya during that time is canon you cant change my mind
also NICKNAMES FOR PKM OH MY GOD UR SO REAL- i think about this constantly bcuz terra (although her names are- quirky as they say) and luna has nicknames for theirs and i love that sm
also yes. flower crowns.

I haven't even rewatched Rogue One yet but I realise I am still so incredibly emotionally compromised by the ending, specifically the ending Cassian and Jyn scenes. Seeing gifs, bits of it in edits or just thinking about it gets to me and god I rly need to rant about it and explore why (under the cut bc it got long lmao, warning for rogue one spoilers obv if you haven't seen it)
This breakdown is mostly from memory so I've prob misremembered details that is gonna ruin me on a rewatch.
Like ofc we have all the baggage of the entire movie, their conflict and the way they've connected in the background. But I think it's how in the end they're both battered and bruised. They're worn down, struggled to reach this point, and at the end Cassian managed to get up there to save Jyn with his last strength. It is all just scrambling for a win, giving it all they got to just do this one thing (the way everyone on their team has sacrificed themselves to get them here really just enforces that)
And then the moment in the elevator is just... not a word said but it gets me because it's so vulnerable. Both these characters have hard exteriors that they project to the world but in that moment they just look at each other with so much emotion and love. Cassians look especially is just so tired and yet love and admiration for Jyn. The performances here rly are.. it hits me. It's also physically intimate but in a way that just feels calm, soft, like they're resting. And it hits the feeling of, the realisation that exists between the characters from here on out "oh maybe we could've been something-".
and then out on the beach, they're proud. "do you think anybody's listening?". and the thing is, we know SOMEONE IS LISTENING. they did win. this isn't a tragedy of them trying and still failing, they've completed their mission. and they don't know it, but we do, they've saved the galaxy. because they decided to hope and love and do the right thing.
But the tragedy is that they're not going to make it. The fight is over. They're not going to survive this, but there is no fight left to take. They've done enough fighting, so for them to in the end face something so unavoidable is almost peaceful you know? The fact that they get to face the end together is beautiful, but that they have to die at all is so damn unfair. The comfort they share, the support, and god I think Diego Luna summed it up pretty well in the clip that "that hug represents everything that could have been but didn’t happen" ( x ). And so it is sad to mourn what they're losing, that they don't get to live in the galaxy they've saved. They don't get to see the end of the rebellion.
So in the end there's sadness between them as well, sadness and fear of the end, but they hold each other and find comfort in the other. Both emotional, but also as a reminder that they did win this together. Once again, the performances and the shots and everything is just beautiful. It is soft, intimate and the last closeups of their faces as they just hold the other will be stuck in my brain forever.
So in summary, I think the reason why it gets to me, that I'm feeling when typing this out, is that there is this blend of so many different emotions happening in this one sequence. This is also why I've been struggling with grasping it, because there's so much at the same time that captures different things from the human experience.
The vulnerability they dare to share with each other, the pride of winning, the fact that instead of doubt they embrace the hope of their rebellion! But then the sadness and sorrow of what could've been, fear of what to come, but also the comfort of having each other, having shared this experience and saved the galaxy. It is both that we feel what the characters are experiencing, but for the viewers that know they're faith isn't misplaces, that light will prevail, that someone is listening, that really just hits it home for me.
