#I always feel weird calling Jayce Big

That ask w/ Amarantine (thank God for autofill cause I can't spell her name to save my life) and that I remembered a tidbit in the Zaun family au got me thinkin.
Amarantine (for kicks here) is baby#2 aka, the chunky, why the hell is this pup so big, baby
In all this conversation I do think we need to pause for a second and acknowledge that Jayce himself as a kid had a lot of puppy fat on his face
Tumblr media
(because he's looking up in this image it's actually giving him more jaw than he does in most shots)
So I think they don't actually wonder where this chunky pup came from seeing those genes have people to point to on both sides. It's the nurses at the hospital who are wondering how these pretty lean people (Jayce is big(ish) but he's toned muscle) created such a round big baby.
Also look I do really like Jayce's kids taking after him in terms of being all puppy fat as a kid and then toning down as an adult.
Basically yes she's definitively the chunky huge baby that Viktor started to think he might have made a mistake around the 6 month mark of the pregnancy.
(The flipside of this is poor Ximena desperately trying to fatten Naph up while the other side of the family is like "he's got the scrawny genes trust us no matter what you do he isn't getting any plumper. People kept thinking Claggor was stealing Mylo's food when they were pups.").

Yes, another idea. But this time I would like you to add Jayce (I love him too!). Viktor, Jayce x Fem!Paranormal Researcher!Reader. Paranormal researchers study ghosts, record paranormal activity in any place, try to catch the presence of a good or evil spirit. All this is done with the help of special devices. But! Reader is taking a big risk. She constantly goes to some abandoned places or cemeteries, because paranormal activity is quite high there. She can even make contact with spirits. But Jayce and Viktor didn't know about it until a certain point. How will they know that Reader is engaged in a rather dangerous business? Will it scare them at first? Thank you very much!
(Hey! Sorry this took a bit but here ya go, Enjoy!)
Viktor & Jayce x Paranormal Research Reader
Viktor
Tumblr media
Viktor was never a really big paranormal believer
Sure he heard about it a lot but he never really cared about it
Never had any spooky ghost “Encounters” growing up
Even in the Undercity
The people there were weird and creepy enough
But the idea of ghosts and the paranormal always quite fascinated him
He grew up hearing Singed talk about it also
The man believed highly that the world was very spiritual
That's really the only time growing up he worked on paranormal things
But even when you worked with it he never really knew
You never talked about it a lot
The first time he learned was when you casually mentioned it
Example
“So at work we had this old grandma ghost who was angry. Her husband apparently cheated on her and hid it until she was dead and moved his mistress into their room.”
“That sounds bad. How did he hide- Hold on, love. Did you say ghost and dead? Excuse me?”
Man was gobsmacked
He sat there blinking at you for a second before he finally composed himself
It was a lot for him to take in but he took it fairly well
He would ask a lot of questions
And by a lot I mean a lot
It took a long time for Viktor to get used to obviously
But after he did when you came home he would always have a series of questions to ask
When he heard about you going to cemeteries and abandoned locations he would be sketched out
Just make sure you’re being safe and please don’t go alone
He does worry a lot though
Why he’s always relieved to see you when you come home
Don’t bring back any ghosts or artifacts from work
He will burn those
He is freaked out you can make contact with spirits though
He doesn’t like the idea of it
But he will be cool with it
Just please don’t do it around him because he will feel weirded out
Jayce
Tumblr media
Oh no
Jayce was always freaking creeped out by the idea of ghosts
Even when he was a kid
Was a firm believer there were ghosts in his house and under his bed
Would not sleep without a nightlight and believed the tiniest sound meant the house was haunted
When he found out about your type of work was the same time he found out you could come in contact with ghosts
“What are you doing- What the hell?! Why are you doing that?! Why is the thingy talking?! Nope! I’m out!”
He would lock himself in the room and hide
He is scared shitless
And when he heard about you going to cemeteries and abandoned places?! You might as well had given him a heart attack
He swore he was gonna die
You thought he did because he did faint on the floor
But he was all good after a good smack to the face
He hates shit like that
He will 100% call you the entire time you’re gone and worry until you’re back in front of him
In one piece though please
He doesn’t care if they’re good ghosts or evil ones
He’s still scared
He’s more open to the good ghosts that are proven good
But please no
He is always asking questions
“When I’m showering can they see my ass?”
“Jayce, nobody likes you that much.”
“Oh, thank God.”
Also like Viktor will not stand for anything being brought home
Doesn’t care at all
He will throw it, burn it or give it to someone else
Maybe Marcus
Or if you come in contact with that assholes ghost please tell him to go to hell

Now that my longest-ever fanfic is done and posted, I realized I needed to do one more thing to truly purge it from my system: Make a "meet the OCs" post!
Honestly do not care if anyone reads this, I just need it out of my brain
Let's meet those OCs!
Before we begin: I must admit to being generally anti-OC in my reading and writing. It's not personal, it's just that I came to read about a certain set of characters and their relationships with each other, not some strange character I've never heard of before. However, I feel like readers can tell when something is half-hearted, so I tried my best to use the OCs unapologetically and to not brush over them in the narration.
Let's begin
Jayce & Janiyah (he/him & she/her)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Janiyah is the older sister, slightly younger than Hassel. I felt bad for not giving her more of a personality, but her whole deal is kind of that she diminishes herself in service of the clan. She's supposed to represent Hassel's "bad ending," so to speak.
Jayce and Janiyah are both Blasian, or the Pokémon equivalent, and I based Jayce's personality in particular on the "Vancouver Asian" archetype— in love with the city, always getting bubble tea, avid mallwalker.
Most Picrew are not super compatible with wacky Pokémon character design, but I pictured them both wearing brighter colors and bolder patterns— Janiyah in particular wears a lot of orange and red.
NOTE: I got extremely lost in the "let characters of color have brown eyes, dammit" sauce and kind of forgot that making every single dark-skinned character have dark hair and dark eyes in a world where odd-colored eyes and hair are totally normal might circle back around to having weird implications. Fanfic is not representation, but I just wanted to point out that I knowwww I know okay I know.
Asahi (they/them)
Tumblr media
Asahi is the most "nothing" of my OCs; essentially a lazy self-insert to imply more life in the Arts District. They were originally called "Ace," which is a placeholder name I use online, and they look almost exactly like me at age 19 or so. I changed their name because I decided having a character named "Jayce" and a character named "Ace" was unbearably Dr Seuss for a serious fic. Them saying "aces" to Hassel is a shoutout to their original name.
Brenna (she/her/any)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For having such a simple design, it was really hard to find a Picrew that captured the entirety of her essence. She has true brown hair and yellow eyes, for reference.
I made a separate post about her that you might be able to dig up, but the essentials are thus: she's a big ol' powerdyke, she LOVES clowning, and she absolutely despises Geeta
NOTE: Brenna's feelings are not a secret commentary on my own feelings for Geeta. I ADORE her. We shall have a summer wedding.
Joel (he/they)
Tumblr media
I also couldn't find a satisfactory Picrew for Joel. He's a bit older than this image would imply and he ONLY ever wears his conductor's cap.
I did my best as an allistic to write him as autistic. He's an electrician and his special interest is model trains (stereotypical, yes, but that's actually the result of me projecting my own love of model trains onto him! I fucking love model trains).
Taiho (he/him)
Tumblr media
Taiho is a young sumo instructor from Kanto. I didn't spend any more time on him than the others, but his lore just popped into my head, so he has slightly more backstory.
Taiho's dream was always to open his own sumo school and bring the art to as many people as possible. Geeta knew him previously and, when she became Champion, recruited him with the promise of helping secure a grant to open up a sumo school in Paldea.
Lennon (she/her)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Don't let the Picrews fool you, Lennon was a silver-haired anime girl from day one. Picture it in a gradient from silver to black, the silver gradually overtaking the tips as she got older.
Lennon is another placeholder name I use online. Tbh she and Brenna are tied for my favorite OCs.
Stan (any pronouns)
Tumblr media
Stan is That Cool Librarian. We all know one. That's all I got.
NOTE: You may have noticed a discrepancy in the pronouns listed vs the pronouns used in the fic and I'm gonna be sooo honest with you: a bitch was just tired. My first pronouns struggle was trying to figure out if I should use "he" or "it" on Gyarados and by the time I got that worked out I was simply done. So everyone gets one unambiguous pronoun and that's IT.
I'm TIRED.

Talking (Relation-)Ships: Vi & Jinx
Ahhh, the big one, the one the series is about, the relationship that was always their first choice to cover. 
I will probably rush over this more than it deserves because: 
1.) I have less to talk about things that are actually good 2.) Act 3 is around the corner and it might throw off all my thoughts and theories
Tumblr media
On the shipping front, again rule 34, I would never fully exclude it from existing (after all Wincest is a thing), but it does seem that like in this case there seems to be very few shipping-shipping. At least when I glanced over AO3 it looked to me like all fics on them seemed to be based on the League interpretation where it was just violent cop versus mischievous robber and probably not known yet that they are sisters. 
Overall, I think they have done a pretty great job with this relationship in Arcane, they really sell the emotion and the pathos (like Jinx lighting the signal). I for one really enjoy that they didn’t shy away from some of the grittier moments, like Jinx feeling left out of the group (ie when everybody fights the other street thugs) or Vi slapping Powder. It makes it feel more real to see this darker and gritter and unpleasant side as well. 
The main execution quibble is again that it feels a bit contrieved how Vi got abducted and disappeared just at the right/wrong moment. Or how Sevika taunts her so quickly about Vi having hanging out with an enforcer. 
The big question mark with Vi and Jinx of course is how it will end, where it is going. I generally do assume the point is to create the League situation, but there can still be facettes to it. 
I have to say, after seeing them on Arcane, it’s kind of unsettling to read the game quotes, not just that they are on different sides, but how genuinely mean they sound particularly on Vi’s side.  Jinx: "Jinx? Stands for Jinx! Durr." Vi: "I'll wipe that grin off your face. Permanently." Jinx laughs maniacally. Vi: "I forgot how annoying your laugh is." Jinx: "Rules are made to be broken... like buildings! Or people!" Vi: "Alright, who let crazy in?" Jinx: "Vi? Stands for stupid." Vi: "How long do I have to pretend to tolerate you?" Yes, Jinx also insults Vi (calling her stupid or fat hands), but I dunno, Vi’s just seem harsher and more tired to me, while Jinx’s stuff feels more childish. 
In Arcane, I think they intentionally introduced Jayce/VIktor and Silco/Vander as contrasts and particularly Silco and Vander is supposed to show us conflicts that are completely unresolvable and that end in death. So we should at least be scared that it could end very badly, but I have a hard time taking it seriously because we weren’t really shown much of their pre-fallout bond. 
For the way they are portrayed in Arcane, if they end up on opposite sides, the things that would halfway work for me would be: 
1.) Actually they mostly made up, but because Vi got drafted into the enforcers they just pretend to chase each other. Jinx does funny and weird pranks, Vi pretends to chase her, but always lets her go. They team up on occasion. 
2.) Jinx fractured further and Vi’s drive is to catch her and “get her back”, emotionally.  
Also, I do like Vi/Caitlyn, but I really hope it doesn’t turn into having to choose Cait over Jinx. Aka if the point of the story was Vi breaking the bros before hoes/sister before mister code. That wouldn’t sit right with me (if Jinx and Vi ends sadly I am all for Cait being there to comfort Vi). 
Let’s Talk Vi
Obviously I see lot of love and care there (oh, those flashbacks of little Jinx). Yes, Vi is flawed too and she is young so I personally don’t blame her longterm for being a bad sister/lashing out at Jinx, I don’t think that it makes her a bad person long term. 
A scene that really affected me was after they clash and Vi walks out and she breaks down, but then she does scramble up and wants to run to Powder before she gets nabbed by Marcus and of course her desperation to get Powder back after she comes out of prison. 
I do read their relationship as Powder maybe was unusual/neurodivergent even before the death of Vander/Mylo/Clagger and Vi was taking her for her and trying to comfort her through crying fits etc. So she has some experience in how to handle that. And of course whenever there is something like that, there is also the question whether that is taxing for the caretaker too. 
Let’s Talk Jinx
So obviously there is a lot of love there and mixed emotions, but as much as I would like to think that Jinx misses Vi and it’s only Silco and Marcus keeping them apart, there is that scene where Jinx shoots the firelight who looks like Vi in the back. 
I tend to read Jinx as not really believing everything Silco tells her, or maybe she does think that he could be right about Vander, but not necessarily Vi. 
Now Vi being angry at her and walking out on her clearly hurt her and I could sort of see it as a “cut out the thing that can hurt you” kind of thing. It’s clearly that she is still very insecure, that Sevika’s words about Vi having replaced her get to her and she shows jealousy immediately when Cait is there. 
There has been some good discussion on Powder wanting to be useful and that she feels left out when she’s not useful. I feel like this goes along with her feeling different, feeling like an outsider, having trouble to connecting to people (probably due to neurodivergence), even Vi. So maybe that is a story there, that even if they do really love each other, that there is this one aspect that Jinx will always be alone in.  
Overall
My two questions: 
1.) Do I think that they do/did they fuck? 2.) Do I think that they could be happy together?
Don’t really make too much sense in this context, but for consistency, for 1, no, I don’t think so. 
As for 2, I would say, yes, I can picture them having a fairly happy and supportive sibling relationship if things had been just slightly different. So, not much to say there.
Final Grade: A (I like them a lot, the pathos and emotion is well done)
Disclaimer: these are my feelings as of the end of Act 2 of Arcane, my rating might go up or down drastically based on what happens in Act 3.

they both tried so hard to put on a mask only for them to call each other out ☠️ by far one of my favorite chapters so far!!! look at those parallels!!! gosh i am hurt but excited!!!
Yeah, honestly, I think this is one of my favorite chapters lmao which feels so funny to say but sometimes you just need to see your characters break before they can get better. Nol was never EVER going to address his mask - and worse, he was planning to disappear without saying goodbye to anyone, and frankly, that was really devastating for me to think about. As sad as it is to watch them like this (someone pointed out that it reads so much like a break up scene lmao) it was necessary to put those things in the open. With the way Nol believes a. No one saw through the Yeonggi mask and b. That no one really cares enough if he WERE to disappear, he was going to just carry on like this forever.
I can't get too deep into this in the moment, but Nol and Shinae both have a habit of squashing things down in effort to be "okay". In fact, Nol's whole "Maybe I should just go with it all" spiel has a lot of connotations of wanting to just lay down and accept things, because fighting is exhausting. Likewise, Shinae tends to just... roll on from things she's endured without really doing anything about them. Kinda like when things were weird with her and Maya and she didn't address it - sometimes you go with things because facing them is hard and it's scary.
I am honestly so, SO obsessed with their parallels, I'll never shut up about it. It's why even though I'm never totally certain what I think will happen in ILY, I AM always certain that Shinae and Nol will always have each others' backs and be partners, whether it's platonic or romantic, because they have been so intricately designed to always mirror each other.
(More below because I started big rambling lmao)
The masks one is especially good because the look on Nol's face when Shinae calls him out for being the same as her. AAAAAAHHHHHHHH.
Tumblr media
No one ever calls him out, no one sees through him, no one ever seems aware of his mask and even if Shinae was one of them until now, the point is, now SHE is seeing into the real Nol, she is seeing beyond Yeonggi and I think that is both scary and intimate. Yeonggi was so, SO convincing - and he was a good shield. I think it's not necessarily that Nol wore a mask only to keep people out, but I think more because as Nol he hates himself SO MUCH, Yeonggi was the way he could try to put that behind him. Nol is terrible but Yeonggi? Maybe Yeonggi could be a good guy. Maybe Yeonggi could form friends. Maybe someone would love Yeonggi. (*muffled sobbing*)
Another good parallel is even the opening! They're all the lines Nol has said to Shinae as he earns her friendship, and you see the snowflake melting because it was her melting to him and letting down her guard and becoming true friends with him. He melted the cold shell she uses to protect herself. But notably, those lines are also likely her own thoughts towards him. "I want to help you." "Let's be friends." "It's not good to bottle everything up inside. You can only hold out so long before you break." Nol needs to open up, he needs to let things out, because he is at breaking point already. He is breaking.
(Incidentally, stuff like this is why I'm such an ardent shipper of this pair; they understand each other inside and out because they've both been through this, they both understand what it's like to carry something with you that you can't release yourself from, how hard it is to let someone care, both loathe to feel like a burden. They have such an innate understanding of each other that their emotional intimacy is already formed without them realizing it!)
The one that keeps haunting me lately lol is when Jayce says "You're the only heir" or whatever and it shows Nol, and when Kousuke is told "Congrats you're the new CFO" and it shows Shinae. That.... is really loaded. I'm not sure if it's going to be as face value as it sounds but at any rate, the two of them will remain involved with the Hirahara Corp (as much as I want them to run together). But I believe that whatever involvement they have in the future will be okay as long as they are a team. Shinae and Nol are just soulmates man, okay? They are SOULMATES and I'm in love with them and the way they each bring things out of each other that they need to and I can't wait to see what kind of effect they'll have on each other in the future. (I'm also hoping badly that Nol is the person who shows up on the rooftop at the party at the Parks', because pls I want them to reconcile now rather than 4.5 years in the future lol)
UGH I just love them and I love this episode I'm SO happy to gush about it with people after all these weeks AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

okay Des like this one:
By the African river, know as the Nile The sun fell away and it rested a while The rhinos had braved all the smoldering heat They lay down to sleep as they wiped off their feet The elephants marched to their elephant beds And gently they rested their elephant heads Slowly the hippos sank into the river The water so cold that it gave them a shiver (Hippos can't swim, like the pelicans think They also can't float, they could easily sink) The hippos went bathing in cool, shallow pools Thinking the rhinos and elephants fools Underwater, they fell to the soft river bed On darkish green plants with a smidgen of red They strolled on the bottom, then bounced up for air They did it for hours, without any care The fish followed closely, and wove in an out Under their belly, and up to their snout Each of the hippos came up to the shore To feed on the grass by the river once more They dried off their bodies by shaking and stomping And took bites of grass, chewing and chomping With night fading fast, they were full from the feast The sun returned back, rising up form the east The hippos crept off to collapse for the day While rhinos and elephants got up to play Enjoying the warmth of the sun and its light Never knowing the story of hippos at night
just read it in my New York accent you’re so good at
goodnight Lois
Roman.
that was perfect. Goodnight Clark.

okay here’s my full character analysis??? Headcanons???? canon retelling with my shit slapped on??? on
VIKTOR LEAGUE OF LEGENDS
(under read more cause its gonna get long)
Viktor is said to be born in the borders of the Entresol level of Zaum (aka the middle), but I’m guessing that means the lower border because of how often he’d have to move or stay away from home due to accidents.
I assume Viktor had good parents. They were artisans and seemed to encourage his creative pursuits with robotics and so on. (I also believe he is trans and that his parents supported him in that as well haha).
So yes, we have this child who likes building things. And he lives in this place that is not healthy or safe for the people that live there. His parents probably go to the upper levels to work and Viktor gets a glimpse of a better place there. He sees where he’s at and at first, he is motivated by both kindness and frustration. He is a child with a passion and all these leaks and accidents are getting in the way! So he starts studying to see what he can do. Time passes though and he realizes the extent of those things, the casualities of those humam errors. So he takes his work more seriously and soon he is producing results. But of course no one takes a teen seriously, no matter how good he is.
Until someone does and it works. His inventions are good! So he keeps doing it! He’s awkward and socially anxious but he really LOVES building things so he does it and sells his work to the factories until he gets the attention of the Zaun academy of techmaturgy (this is canon btw). 
He goes into the academy and he’s.... awkward... Like, Zaun is full of weird people sure but Viktor is pretty bad at talking about anything but robotics and stuff and comes off as blunt often, so he’s kinda isolated by his peers. He doesn’t mind, he’s there to study. But professor stanwick approaches him with interest in his work and Viktor is happy he is recognized by a professional. He’s a little naive back then and trusts his teacher a lot. Which is why he is convinced to move to Piltover, despite a bit of his reluctance to leave his home. His parents wave him goodbye and he leaves.
He moves to Piltover and gets a better lab, more tools, more money and more people to help. His work just improves in time and he’s put to work with a lot of people. He once again fails incredibly of socializing properly and falls into isolation yet again (hello darkness my old friend). People end up working with him either because he’s really the best option or because they can stand him for the time he is needed {:- (
Well, that is, until he works with Jayce. Jayce is infurating and doesn’t do things the way Viktor likes doing and has this weird outlook on how things are done that sometimes just works despite it all. He’s a puzzle that doesn’t make sense and the two end up doing a lot of things together. And having a lot of discussions. A LOT of them. They are both kinda lonely. But its like.. they don’t dislike eachother?? Because they kind skipped some steps in how socializing usually goes so it just kinda worked. 
They could’ve kept going, getting comfortable in eachother’s spaces until they could just go out to chill together or something but neither of them was brave enough to try it (or smart enough to realize that could be good). 
But then at this time that awful chem spill happened in Zaun in the entresol level and Viktor rushes home to help.
I’d say this is where Viktor’s character starts like, solidifying I guess? Because I think for the first time, as a grown mature person, Viktor is seeing death and suffering with his own eyes. Death and suffering that could’ve been avoided. He’s watching all these people die and suffer and he can only do so much to repair the damage. If only it could’ve been avoided, could’ve been stopped. He knows it’s possible. Why didn’t anyone do it? 
He doesn’t find his parents either.
So he spends the next several months throwing all his energy and sanity into doing whatever he can to help these people. He builds blitzcrank and they fix evertyhign they can. It’s a fucking CHEM spill, can you imagine just how AWFUL it all was?? people were dying for several weeks after the accident , even after the damage to the structures were already fixed. These people were slowly suffering around him and he was trying and they kept dying around him. These are workers, families. It’s a pretty bad situation.
He learnes how to infuse mechanical parts with flesh in an astonishing way just to try to replace the rotten, sick parts of the people around him. Get rid of the parts that were kiling them.
And then! He finally goes back to Piltover, after it all, and the first thing he gets is the news that Stanwick stole credits on his invention of Blitzcrank.
Like.. the emotional toll of it all? He’s tired! He’s burdened with the ammount of death he saw and people wanna be shitty and play games like that for glory and fame! It’s stupid and he doesn’t understand it! He tries to fight for his right and loses because no one really bothered to support him through it (Jayce didn’t think he’d really have to and would you look at that).
He’s angry and upset and grieving and possibly traumatized. He keeps wondering why would people do that to eachother and comes up empty. So he’s here, obsessing with replacing every part of human error to garantee that people WILL live. Of course, he’s more isolated then ever and people don’t bother to sit down and listen, they just think he’s weird and obsessed and stuff like that.
So when he needs to do the colaboration on the dive suits with Jayce and they have their fight about free will, people side with Jayce quickly. They think Viktor is mad and they had seen it coming miles away. 
He gets fucking expelled from the Piltover academia and sent back to Zaun.
To his ruined home, alone, with nothing but his name and his thoughts.
Clearly that leads him into a deep depression. After all, he lost everything but he doesn’t understand why ! because sure these people in piltover like acting high and mighty and theorizing and politicizing but they didn’t have to watch children crying because they were coughing so much blood was coming out because their lungs were corroded and they wouldnt last another week. They thought viktor was mad. 
And viktor had a lot of time to wallow over it, and think about his failures and suffer on his own and he’s actual conclusion is that negative emotions ( envy, pride, sadness) clouded people’s judgemetns. They’d let others suffer for their own gain out of fear of losing. 
He thought that himself feeling sadness was just another obstacle to do what he had to: save people.
So he basically starts operating on himself until he can barely feel emotions anymore, removing his own happiness with it (but its not like he felt it anyway so what difference did it make). And then he starts plunging into work like never before, dedicated to this new cause that is the glorious evolution. He starts again from the bottom and once again he rises, because Viktor is a genious, and he is honest in his work, in his intentions. He wants to help.
 People were scared of the Mad Man Viktor, but Viktor would do anything he could to save you if you came to him. He understood limits though, he never imposed over people. Do no harm, as they say ( what would be the point of doing that?? )
And then the other toxic even happens in Sump, another really bad one, and Viktor rushes in to help. He’s keeping these people alive in his lab but he knows he doesnt have the power to keep them so. So he goes to Jayce after an energy source.
He thinks Jayce will listen to him now, now Viktor isn’t emotive and easily hurt, now he isn’t insecure, he has a cause, he has something he fights for. A brighter tomorrow.
And Jayce calls him mad. 
Viktor is kind of dissapointed, he’d think Jayce, who has always been so uncaring of people’s opinion’s would at least try to understand. He doesn’t. So he takes the crystal by force from Jayce (petty arguments can be saved for later, those people on his lab needed him NOW).
When Jayce follows him there with a hammer he understands the stakes. 
One life against hundreds is an easy math. Viktor chooses to sacrifice Jayce (Jayce chose to come here after all)
But then Jayce actually destroys his lab.
And like... imagine waking up to your laboratory destroyed, just dozens of corpses of innocent people laying around. yet another failure, yet another big price to pay.
He has to start from zero again. His reputation is completely stepped on ( he is truly crazy now by everyone’s eyes) and Jayce is a hero. Blitzcrank sticks around for a little while, moved by the same passion to help people, but blitzcrank can stand the deaths and the gruesomeness of viktor’s work, he leaves to try to help in other ways. Viktor lets him of course, blitz has free will and he isn’t anyone to stop him. 
Some people, desperate people, still come to him for help. He does his best to give them what they need. A strange cult forms and idolizes him, he hates it, he is no god, he is just another man. People thinking of him as an etheral being just proves his theory on how fear and wayward emotions lead to dumb, dangerous mistakes.
In the end, Viktor is trying to cheat suffering, cheat death at all costs.
I don’t believe he sent any golems or anything after Jayce, vengence is way too beneath him. Stealing? Maybe not, depends. I think Jayce became a bit paranoid after “defeating” viktor. Because Viktor said some big words and Jayce is suddenly realizing that truly, he has no purpose. He’s just a useless tool. He makes things sure, but what for? He’s raised as a hero but damn he doesn’t feel like it.
And to end it all, this is why I think Ekko and Viktor should sit down and chat at some point. They are so similar and so different all at once. They both love Zaun and its people, they both wanna protect them and have a passion for inventing. But while Viktor wants to reject his human side to achieve his goals, Ekko embraces it. Like, I don’t think Viktor shouldn’t even be his mentor, more like his colleague. Ekko is his own person and has a different way of doing things, but they could do a lot together as well. 
Also Ekko and Blitz are totally friends in canon so like.. yeah.. Zaun for life....
Anyway this is it thank tou all for reading this is UUUH like 1,8k words long 
extras or stuff I already said and will say again:
viktor is trans
he was an anxious yet hopeful (and maybe a bit naive) teenager
he still loves sweet things and thats canon.. he likes chilling sometimes
workaholic as seen
blames himself for literally everything like a dumbass
is kinda of very afraid of death in general
is not the kind of person that steals children to experiment on them cmon guys thats propaganda
is embarrassed of the cult following him
i guess he doesnt have his whole left arm anymore, chop chop it went
USED braces as  kid
loves blitzcrank like a son, doesnt realize it
I think thats all, sorry yall

REVIEW
Sailor Proof by Annabeth Albert
Shore Leave #1
 What fun this book proved to be! I fell in love with Derrick and Arthur but also with Arthur’s family and the look into what it must be like to be involved with someone in the Navy. I knew that the men on the LST that evacuated us from Lebanon were missing their families, appreciated the effort they made to keep us safe, and thought of them again today while reading this book and realized even more the sacrifices they and their families make every day to do the jobs they do.
 What I liked:
* Derrick Fox: Petty Naval Chief working with sonar in a submarine, orphaned as a youth, raised by his grandmother, the Navy is his career, and he is focused, sweet, kind, gentle, confident, and perfect for Arthur.
* Arthur Euler: musician, different from other family members, fun loving, lives for himself, kind, generous, interesting, perfect for Derrick.
* The Euler family: large, loving, boisterous, competitive, do-gooders, there for on another.
* The look into part of what it might be like to be in the Navy and/or to fall for someone in the Navy.
* The growth of the relationship between Arthur and Derrick
* That the obstacles to overcome were dealt with honestly
* The communication between the couple
* The support of Arthur’s mother
* That the relationship between Derrick and Arthur was healthy and normal and believable
* The family reunion and the activities and situations that occurred there
* All of it really!
 What I didn’t like:
* Can’t think of anything except maybe the undervaluing of Arthur by some of his family.
 Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Yes
 Thank you to NetGalley and Carina Adores for the ARC – This is my honest review.

   Sailor Proof by Annabeth Albert is available in trade paperback, eBook and audiobook on September 28th!
 The sexy Navy chief and his best friend’s adorkable little brother…
 It’s petty, but Naval Chief Derrick Fox wishes he could exact a little revenge on his ex by showing off a rebound fling. His submarine is due to return to its Bremerton, Washington, home base soon and Derrick knows all too well there won't be anyone waiting with a big, showy welcome.
 Enter one ill-advised plan…
 Arthur Euler is the guy you go to in a pinch—he's excellent at out-of-the-box solutions. It's what the genius music-slash-computer nerd is known for. So when he finds out Derrick needs a favor, he’s happy to help. He can muster the sort of welcome a Naval Chief deserves, no problem at all.
 Except it is a problem. A very big problem.
 When Arthur’s homecoming welcome is a little too convincing, when a video of their gangplank smooch goes enormously viral, they're caught between a dock and a hard place. Neither of them ever expected a temporary fake relationship to look—or feel—so real. And Arthur certainly never considered he'd be fighting for a very much not-fake forever with a military man.

  EXCERPT
Derrick
Arthur turned out hot. That was my first thought when I spotted him after I heard my name called. Derrick. My actual name, not Fox, not Chief, and outside of Calder a couple of times, I hadn’t heard that name in months. And definitely not like that, all eager and excited and happy. On the sub, hearing my name inevitably meant that someone needed something right that minute, but the way Arthur said it didn’t inspire dread at all.
I’d already been caught up in the energy of the day. Homecoming day was always exciting, even if I didn’t usually have someone waiting. The whole crew was jostling about, getting into our dress whites, making sure everything from our cover to the chest candy of ribbons and medals to the gig line was perfectly straight. Getting chosen to be on deck as we came into port was an honor, one that I usually let others, especially those with kids, fight over, since there was still plenty to do belowdecks in preparation and support. As the chief sonar tech, I was responsible for working with the A-gangers from engineering and the operations department to help navigate us in. Adrenaline was contagious, and by the time my department was cleared to disembark, I had enough energy to rival the reactor that powered the sub.
And then I heard my name.
I recognized Arthur’s red hair right away. But the rest…
Wow. Arthur had grown hot. Still shorter than me and skinnier, but wiry now, each lean muscle defined under a thin white shirt and tight jeans. No signs of his ever-present too-big nerd-humor tees. Same startling green eyes as before, though, and a new, more chiseled jaw sporting the perfect amount of fuzz. He’d grown into his long regal nose, and the hair that had seemed to have a life of its own when he’d been a teen was sculpted now, this perfectly styled wave that made me want to mess it up. His hands, which had always seemed too big for the rest of him, were clutching a giant sign.
For me.
And for a second—a literal instant when our eyes met and time stopped—I forgot it wasn’t real. And in that moment, I wanted it to be. Someone smiling that broadly for me. Had Steve ever been so happy to see me? Hell, I wasn’t even sure the poodle my grandmother had let me keep had been that happy. Arthur just radiated pure joy. The kid was one hell of an actor.
“Welcome home.” Even his voice was different. Deeper. Sexier.
“Hey,” I said because I was simply that brilliant at conver­sation. I reached an arm out, instinctively going for a hand­shake, but Arthur shifted his sign and met me partway, coming in for a hug.
A really tight hug.
Damn, he felt good. Amazing really. Solid muscle against me, hair tickling my nose, exactly as silky as it looked, strong arms able to haul me in and hold me tight. He smelled like mint and green tea, two things in short supply on a boat that tended to smell like old socks on a good day. Sweet. I inhaled deeply as his lips brushed my ear.
“Calder said to kiss you,” he whispered. “And I want to. But you gotta tell me you’re good with that first.”
Was I good with that? Hot guy who smelled like a concoction I wanted to drink every day for a month wanted to kiss me. And ordinarily, the friendship code would put Arthur far, far off-limits, but here was Calder telling us to kiss. It was a free pass, the sort I’d be a fool to turn down.
I wasn’t a fool.
And what harm could a peck do?
“Yeah.” My voice was a rough whisper, and I didn’t have a chance to brace myself before Arthur was sliding his mouth over from my ear to mouth. A double shot of tequila would have had less punch than the first brush of contact.
And okay, not a peck.
We were kissing. Arthur and I, which should have been weird but somehow wasn’t. At all. Someone whooped behind us, but almost all of my attention was riveted on Arthur, like I was on watch and every sense was heightened lest I miss something vital.
Like how soft his lips were. Full too. Or the bristle of his scruff against my cheek. I’d done a submarine shave that morn­ing, not my best job, but close enough that the rasp of beard felt electric. Our chests were pressed so tightly that I could feel his heart pounding. Or maybe that was mine, blood zooming to places that had been in deep freeze for months.
“Wow.” Arthur pulled back, leaving me dazed and still clinging to him.
“Damn.” The statuesque purple-haired woman he’d been standing with laughed loudly and thumped Arthur’s shoul­der. “Is that the best you can do? Your man has been at sea how many months?”
Your man. If only. If he were actually mine, we’d be racing across base, a mad dash to find a room with a door. But he wasn’t and all we’d ever have was this moment. A potent mix of want and resolve raced through me as suddenly I was determined to make this count.
I pulled him back to me, and this time when our mouths collided, I was ready. Ready to taste. Ready to absorb every single detail. Ready to seize control and kiss like the world might be ending.
And it could have. Not sure I would have noticed. Everything faded away. The crowd. The docks. The balloons Arthur had been clutching and his sign both as his strong hands clung to my shoulders as we kissed in earnest. He tasted like he smelled, sweet and minty, and his tongue against mine was like floodlights coming on.
“Welcome home,” Arthur breathed against my mouth as the sound of applause gradually pulled me back into awareness of our surroundings. Applause. Whoops of laughter. Clicking cameras. But still I couldn’t seem to look away from him.

Sweet Mafia
Tumblr media
Dreams:
He was so innocent, so pure and perfect. Cass wanted nothing more than to show him her world. The chaos that writes her everyday.
“Stay still...” she whispered into his ear before sitting up. She wanted to mark him, show everyone that he was hers.
She ran a knife with a delicate hand, down his chest and back up careful not to break skin. He watched her closely hanging on to everything she did. He knew she would never hurt him no matter what danger lurks between her depths. He had surrendered himself to her and she loved it.
Craved it.
Convincing herself, she put the knife down at the side of them and grinds against his now erect shaft. Her own excitement wetting her lace panties. She wanted to claim him.
His innocence.
Because he was only hers.
“Tell me Jayce, do you want me?” She grounded her hips against him harder causing groans to escape his mouth. Pre-cum wet his boxers as he kept his body as still as he could.
“Yes.” He shuttered against her.
“How badly.” Her voice was a purr to his ears that had him clenching his abdomen.
“I need you Cass,” he breathily replies. “Take me...” And that was all she needed to hear before easing back his boxers and pulling his cock into her mouth.
She woke with a start to her day, her heat aches beneath her. She wiped a hand over her face and tugged her hair into a bun getting up to take a cold shower.
Why couldn’t she get him out of her mind?
She knew the answer to the question all too well but she knew the person hidden within her skin would ruin him.
She had a darkness only Tye had seen once. The side of her who craved the world be set to ashes. She had let her anger get the best of her and lost control, she need not to do that again.
Years and years of practice maintaining patience and a calm stature when all she wanted to do is wreak havoc.
Cass turned the water on and stepped underneath the shower’s cold water tapping down her raging hormones and went to start another day.
She let her hair air dry as she put on her clothes for today, the mafia leader still had her own college classes to attend after all. The new semester starts today but at least it was her last year. Putting on some mascara and lipstick she was just about ready for her meeting before she got a call.
“Wassup Tye, what’s going on?” She tugged on her garters and clipped them to her socks.
“Meeting is canceled Cass. I got some bad news for ya...” he paused for a bit, something Cass knew meant it really wasn’t good.
“What is it Tyson?”
“Micheal is back.” He fell silent the moment those words fell from his lips.
“What—“ Anger swirled within her. Pent up and swelling even more, the box she held it in was going to bust. “What do you mean he’s back!?” She was furious to say the least. “I thought I fucking told him if he ever came back I’d— never mind. What has he done now?”
“It’s not good Cass... Just come to the docks.” He replies.
“I’ll see you in 20.” She hung up the phone shaking as she tried to hold back her angst.
***
“So they’re missing.” She stated calmly, too calm.
“Yes...” Tyson was weary. He knew how his friend was like especially when boiled with anger. This calmness was new and he didn’t really like it. He expected her to yell and rage at him and she was doing neither. She looked completely calm and unaffected when he knew that was not the case.
Micheal was after all, the one who betrayed her.
“Okay.” She said simply to the fact that a few of her people were missing. Knowing Micheal he would have killed them by now because they would never speak. “We must inform and warn them to try and stay clear of him until Micheal comes to me himself.” Micheal only wanted her, she knew. He wished to marry her and when she said no he did everything in his power to make her life as miserable as he could... including something she would never tell a soul. Not even her trusted friend knew. One thing she did know is that when he inevitably comes to her she will be ready and he will die.
“Yes ma’am.” Replied Tye and turned on his heel to alert the others. He wasn’t about to make her upset in any way.
She let out a big sigh and went back to her vehicle, right now she had things to do and couldn’t lose herself in the loss of her people. She was going to set up a plan and a damn good one to lore Micheal right where she wanted. She just had to go to her class first. Cass drove quickly down the road not quite speeding but still fast. Making it to her campus in record time she stepped out of her car and grabs her bag.
Professor McKay was her next step, forensic psychology.
Yes she was a psychology major.
“Morning professor.” She stated walking into the class before any other student.
“Ah, morning Ms. Nyx and how are you today?” Professor McKay always favored this sparky student before her. Cass was too smart for her own good she thought, she sees a lot of potential to do great things in the young woman.
“I am well, thank you.” She just wish Cassiopeia didn’t follow in the footsteps of her father. The mafia was not a safe place in terms of their enemies. She knew she couldn’t change her mind. “How are you today?”
“Could be better but I’ll get there. Thank you professor.” Cass sat in her chair and waited for the other students to enter. Suddenly her senses peak and the hair on her neck stands and she feels as if she’s being watched. She turns her head to the window looking out in hopes of finding the source of it. Finding nothing she shivers and turns back around.
“Cass..” Her ears faded back in and a familiar voice calls her. “Cassiopeia?”
She ground her teeth at the mention of her name, often people said it wrong which aggravated her. This person however said it correctly.. interesting. “Cass?” He called again until she turned to meet the beautiful clear blue eyes of someone she could never forget.
“Jay, hi.” She smiled as politely as she could at the moment.
The beast she kept within herself clawed to the surface wanting to claim him right then.
Relax and get back.
“How are you today?” He took in her appearance as he sat down next to her. Definitely not as black as the clothing he met her in but just as dangerous and incredibly beautiful.
“I am well.. thank you.” She smiled while pushing back her thoughts of destruction. “How are you?”
“I’m good, nice to see you.”
Cass remembered him saying last night that he transferred from a different college. However with everything that went on this morning she kind of hoped not to see him. She was on edge and that brought the person she hid closer to the surface.
“Nice to see you as well.”
The professor began to teach but Cass couldn’t focus. Between Micheal being back, some of her trusted colleagues missing and probably dead and the sexual frustration setting back in from this morning because the man of her dreams literally sitting next to her, she couldn’t.
As she began to shake her leg and anxiously tap her pen on the desk Jay looked to her wearily. He knew something had to be wrong but Cass was his biggest mystery he had yet to figure out. He didn’t know how to approach her about how she felt. Before too long the class ended and Cass tried her best to hurry out of the room saying a curt bye to her professor and heading out. She needed a release and quickly before the beast lurking beneath her surface broke free.
Words and sounds faded into nothing as she felt a sense of danger. As she walked the parking lot to her car her hair on the back of her neck rose more and more. She tried to settle herself but the feeling wouldn’t go.
She felt a presence behind her and she quickly grabbed her knife from her garters and threw a quick elbow back causing a yelp from the person. She turned quickly tripping the man and holding the knife to his throat. Adrenaline blinded her until she heard her name, “Shit Cass— relax it’s me.” Connor Ryder, her ex.
“Connie what did I tell you about sneaking up on me.” She grit her teeth as she put her knife away and letting him go.
“Nice to see you too sweetheart.”
“Don’t sweetheart me, what do you want Connor? If you can’t tell I’m busy.” She scoffed.
Connor and Cass had a weird relationship, they left on good terms but the tension between the two was hard to miss.
“I uh... I heard about Mike being back.” He looked sheepish. Michael was a hard subject for the both of them when all Michael wanted was to ruin any relationship Cass had after her refusal for marriage.
“Yes. What about it?” Often times she forgot Connor was apart of the whole mafia. She barely saw him anymore since... she didn’t want to think about it.
“I just want to let you know that I’m here for you. Anything you need just give me a call, my number hasn’t changed.”
Don’t do it Cass... don’t do it..
“Actually there is something I need help with....”
Don’t say it Cass.
“Oh?” He questioned.
“I know you remember all the.. fun we used to have, want to relive that for a day?”
For fuck sake Cass, don’t you listen to your conscience?
“Fun as in?”
“You know what Connie, don’t make me take the offer back.” She rolled her eyes.
“Yes ma’am.” He smiled getting into the passenger side of the car.
Cass got in right after and turns on the car driving off.
“To the spot?” Connor asks.
“To the spot.” She replied simply causing a smile upon Connor’s face.

4, 21, 23, 28, 30, 31, 32, 34, 35, 36, 41, 52, 56, 69, 70, 75, 82, 88, 94, and 98?
Hoo, boy! Thank you for sending the numbers in!
4: Do you like your name? Why?
I do! I just think it suits me quite well, really. 
21: Sandals or sneakers? 
I don’t think I’ve ever voluntarily worn sandals,… but if converse count as sneakers then I’ll say sneakers. I lived in those for years. Nowadays it’s boots, creepers and these weird fake Vans.
23: Describe your dream date?
A day out to the museum, or perhaps to a big park on a warm day. I’ll probably get ice cream and we’ll pet some dogs because, hello, dogs. Afterwards, we’d probably either go to the cinema (I know people think it’s a bad date idea, but I love being able to lift the arms of the seats, and curl up next to whoever I’m with and just be together in the darkness of the cinema screen. It’s intimate and nice.), or go to one of our respective homes, bust out the games, order Chinese food and just have fun.
As much as restaurants and fancy things can be nice, I’m much more comfortable in a low-pressure environment because that way I am more inclined to come out of my shell, and usually so is the other party.
Fun Fact: Rhys and I have never been on a date!
28: How many friends do you have? 
Genuine, close friends that don’t include members of my family or my boyfriend? Two.
30: Whats your favorite candle scent? 
Vanilla. All day every day.
31: 3 favourite boy’s names?
Jace/Jayce, Rhydian, Finn.
32: 3 favourite girl’s names?
Nemain, Iona, Thalia.
34: Favorite actress? 
Oh, my. Um, it would probably be Kate Winslet or someone like that. I don’t really know.
35: Who is your celebrity crush?
Megan Fox and Dane DeHaan.
36: Favourite movie?
LoTR movies, Hotel Transylvania, Wreck-it Ralph, Shaun of the Dead, Treasure Planet.
41: Top 10 favourite songs?
1. Closer by Nine Inch Nails.2. Ringfinger by Nine Inch Nails.3. Burn by The Cure.4. Star Fighter by Wice.5. Blind Trust by Cabaret Nocturne.6. Hold Your Colour by Pendulum.7. Propane Nightmares by Pendulum.8. Coming Undone by KoRn.9. Majesty by Ghost B.C.10. Feel Good by Syn Cole [NCS Release]
52: What is your dream car?
I doubt I’ll ever drive, but I’d love a Mini.
56: Would you rather live in rural areas or the suburbs? 
Rural area but with easy access to amenities, - and preferably somewhere with decent public transport links. I’ve lived in a very small town for my entire life, and we have very, very poor transport links. It’s a nightmare.
69: Do you play an instrument?
I used to play the guitar and violin, but haven’t touched either in 8 years at the least. I’ve always wanted to learn how to play the piano, though.
70: What was the last concert you saw? 
I’ve never been to a concert. I know, I know.
75: Are you going to change your last name when you get married? 
I don’t think anyone is going to want to commit to my hot mess of a personality/life, forever lmao.
But, I’ll humour you: some parts of me don’t like the roots of taking on the surname of your spouse when you get married, but then again a part of me does like it - not the ownership part because the person I marry will know full well that our relationship is a partnership and nothing less, but the old, hopeless romantic in me loves the idea of being someone’s… Oh, the hypocrisy.
I think I’d double barrel my name, actually. 
Listen. I love it when Rhys calls me his, or says “my girl”, or “my princess”, or anything like that, okay? Allow it.
82: Favourite ice cream flavour?
Cookie Dough or Mint Choc Chip.
88: Do you like it when people play with your hair?
I like it when anyone who isn’t a sticky fingered child plays with my hair, yes.
94: Favorite lyrics right now?
All hail the underdogs, all hail the new kids. All hail the outlaws; Spielberg’s and Kubrick’s.
98: Favourite month?
October because H A L L O W E E N.

Ahhh my favorite mustache T_T
The Sisterhood of Eternal Mustache of Luke just got the honorary member ♥
@romeo-and-simulet replied to your photoset:
professor Broccoli?
Well, originally they were Professor Bracaloni, but I decided it would be funny if Ferns mispronounced it :D
@shaysugar replied to your photoset:
I like this little detail of them doing chores/gardening together while having a casual talk. Really bring the reality in
I’m so happy you like it!!! Thank you!! ♥ I mean I always worry it’s not exciting enough but I never know how to go without ‘cause life kinda consists of moments like that, and they kinda determinate characters?? And make them whole?? I dunno, I’d miss them if I didn’t have them in my story, that’s for sure!
@shaysugar replied to your post:
Where do I sign? I'm in XD Mustaches for the win
There’s no formal signing in procedure actually. You just need to stand in the center of the biggest town square that is near you and yell ‘OH DEAR LORD I LOVE ME SOME GREAT MUSTACHE’. After that you may consider yourself signed in! If you also get yourself a husband/wife that day, the Sisterhood will take the credit xD
@shaysugar replied to your post:
pretty sure a lot of that skill comes from your journalism skills :D And age too, cuz that's what I realized after reaching 30s. Age is wisdom
Well yeah, actually I agree with you. My studies gave me a lot. I know it’s kind of popular to say that Uni gives you nothing, well at least in Russia it’s quite popular, but I think Uni gives you as much as you want to take. As for the wisdom, yeah. Being 30 I’m totally different person from being 25. A went through a lot of changes during that period of my life, and I grew a lot. I actually love being 30. I didn’t love being 14 or 20, although I enjoyed those years. But now I know I love my age.
@shaysugar replied to your post:
^yes! And I didn't even know that until Luke was stached
That clearly was Providence that told me to stache him! :D
@tinwhistletoo replied to your photoset:
Just chillin' with her dad!:)
With her dad and his mustache, hehe! I’m sorry. I had to do this... xD
@tinwhistletoo replied to your post:
Support groups?? I haven't gotten the memo! I need one of those support groups!!
Why would you need a support group? It’s me who needs a support group considering what you do with me with your stories! T_T We need something like Anonymous Tinwhistletoo Readers. Hello, my name is Daria, and I follow Jana on Tumblr.
@tinwhistletoo replied to your photoset:
I love Ocean!!:)
And I love you ♥
@tinwhistletoo replied to your photoset:
Oh! Oops! Misread it - it's Ronk!!!
Why are you laughing at ‘Ronk’? It’s very masculine to my ears! Do you Swiss people call something of interest ‘a ronk’? Genitals maybe? Do tell me the truth please :p
@neopixiesims replied to your photoset:
Didn't know Luke likes soaps
He doesn’t! He’s just spending time with his daughter who likes soaps. He doesn’t even realize she’s watching a show, hehe!
@neopixiesims replied to your post:
WHO THE EFF WAS SENDING YOU HATE?!
LOL, Nicks, that was anon hate, how do I know who did it? If I did, it would ruin the anonymity of the thing xD It would ruin the whole  concept xD Oh! I Know! I found the way to ruin anon hate now!!!
@neopixiesims replied to your post:
1big 1 small... that's what she said
Err... I don’t get it?? It’s like there are two penises around, one big and one small? xD
@neopixiesims replied to your post:
Soooo you do like staches....
Danny mustache too. Don't forget Dan the stache man
I do love Luke’s stache. I do love you despite us being apart, and over, and all this shit. I do not like Danny’s stache. Whatever you say, whatever Jules says, Danny was and always will be a soulless commercial slut to me. Nothing will change that. Nothing. Even the plushie. Even the drama man. Although... drama man may be able to change it ‘cause he’s all-powerful!
@oakglow replied to your post:
Yes! Fayce! I knew it would stick ����(fern and jayce emojis)
Yeah! Originally, we had two option, ‘Fayce’ and ‘Jern’, but everybody liked ‘Fayce’ more. I liked ‘Jern’ better though ‘cause I associated it with ‘gems’, but Fayce won so I fell in love with it ‘cause I always fall in love with the option I have ‘cause this is the way of enjoying life and not being sad about it being all wrong LMAO
@simsomedia replied to your post:
Dude no one sends sunshine hate. If you do I will beat you. Just no, not my sunshine.
You know what? I thought about it and realized that maybe it wasn’t that bad?? I mean, I’m thirty, I’m quite mature to know this hate won’t affect me if I don’t let it affect me, but at the same time this person who sends this hate has to feel some relief from all the hate they feel so I kinda help them feel better?? Although I have to admit, that’s awful and really sad when you need to send someone hate to feel better :(
@furiouslydecaffinated replied to your photoset:
I loooooove them!
And I love Emilia and Yulian T_T Please, don’t hurt my babies T_T
@neutralsupply replied to your photoset:
Yas Nutella the Argyles know what's up
I was one of those who “don’t love” Nutella... Then I got myself a jar and stopped to lie to myself...
@neutralsupply replied to your post:
You have a thing for a lot of things Daria
YES! This state of mind’s called ‘joie de vivre’! :p
@neutralsupply replied to your post:
3 small posts means I can like them THREE TIMES AS MUCH!! Yeeeeeey MORE LOVE FOR DARIA!! ❤️❤️
That is because Zina is generous and gives Daria a lot of love, but there are stingy people that rather give one love instead of three loves. Three loves! Can you imagine?? You give three loves away, and it feels like you are out of love now!
@simwithsparkles replied to your photoset:
I think he will definitely charm her!!
I dunno, he still has this bad boy look... Plus, he hasn't had a lot of experience with moms that are not drunk or high... Meaning I haven't actually decided on Ocean’s attitude toward Jayce yet LOL
@simwithsparkles replied to your post:
You are magical to me!! ❤
This is great 'cause you 100% magical to me!!! ♥
@buckleysimss replied to your post:
I adore your replies. You're always so thoughtful and sincere in what you say. ♥
OMG, thank you so much for saying this! I never knew what to say to people who didn’t know me from when I was like five. I mean what do you say to people that are nice to you, and you care for them but there are no years and years of common memories and togetherness between you? And then one day I realized that for some reason people are okay with me just expressing myself, you know? They also seem to be interested in weird stuff I’m saying like for example why do you think all aliens are bald and not furry, I mean Alf was furry? I mean sometimes they look at me like I’m a bit crazy but that’s not a bad look, that’s like, oh how sweet this crazy person is xD
@buckleysims replied to your post:
I would join! I am always hungry, and I really like muffins. And mustaches. ;)
You know what? I just realized how one can promote mustache as a new world trend! You just need to make a co-promotion for mustaches and muffins! It would be a fun bundle to sell to audience!
@simmingswimmingly replied to your photoset:
Best mom award goes to Ocean
Or maybe she’s so good, and calm, and kind because she hasn’t actually met Jayce yet? Who knows what’s coming for them? Not me, that’s for sure xD
@cowardlypixels replied to your post:
i got fun parent!
Congrats! That’s a good one! May a be your kid? ‘Cause I’m not sure if I want to be my own kid LOL
@authenticdragontears replied to your post:
Lmao I got relaxed parent!
LOL This one is interesting! I wonder if it’s even possible to be a relaxed parent? I can’t even imagine it but hey, I am a strict one after all xD
@authenticdragontears replied to your photoset:
That is absolutely gorgeous, awe-inspiring! Can I live there??
In which capacity, my dear? It’s Fern’s house after all xD
@simlishanddreams replied to your post:
You're so mean! LOL just wait till your toddler decides to chomp down on a sibling.
Hey, lady! I’m not mean, I’m strict, there’s a difference! LMAO
@simcataris replied to your post:
COF don't we all have a thing for daddies?? COF
Surprisingly not, not all of us! But I’m glad we are on the same page here :D
@eslanes replied to your post:
Oh god yes! I think giving a stache had the opposite effect!
I’m afraid some heretics still aren’t on our side... But I assure you, it’s the question of time, they will find the right way, the way towards Luke’s Stache... :D
@eslanes replied to your post:
Um I disagree, your stories are the best!
Thank you so much, sweetie!! I really really like your story too!! ♥ ♥ ♥
@eslanes replied to your photoset:
I completely approve of the misbehaving
But of course you do, my little rebel :p
@tabbyrh replied to your post:
Honestly I'm such a big fan of your writing that I'll read however you post. Sorry I know that's not helpful but it's true!
OMG, thank you so much, Tabby! Your words make me so happy!!! I mean it means a lot to hear a compliment from such an experience writer as you!!! Thank you, sweetie!
@mdianasanders replied to your post:
Short/small. I tend to skip long posts and think I'll read them later, but in practice I never do (I would make an exception for you though)
I’m blushing like crazy now!!! Thank you for doing an exception for me ♥ Being an exception is one of the most pleasant thing in life, hehe ♥
@josiesimblr replied to your post:
I think you're such a compelling writer, either choice would make your readers happy! But I prefer one long big post, I feel it keeps the flow smoother and is more coherent than small posts where you kinda have to backtrack to catch up. But I do like to see my fave Simblrs post frequently, so there's that lol.
You called me a compelling writer, I’m cryinggggg T_T What? Why? How? No one ever called me a completing writer! It feels like it’s the best complement ever!!! Thank you so much!!! And I agree with you, that is exactly why I find long post more comfortable?? suitable?? for storytelling.
