#ahhhh this was so much more fun than the cherry one

The specific phrasing of “hurt very pretty” is. I knew before this series I was more into the soft sadism/dom thing but it’s soooo rare to find someone who does the exact flavor I’m into and I think that phrase in my head sooooo often
Ahaha, I'm so glad you're enjoying it! I've always really liked, as you describe it, soft sadism, where it's about the intimacy, the connection, and the sort of delightfully recursive loop you get when the suffering is enjoyed, and the enjoyment of the suffering also contributes to the suffering, whether it be via enthusiasm or humiliation. Funnily enough, despite the kind of stuff that I write, S&M that feels genuinely callous and miserable is fully capable of squicking me if it hits just wrong. I really like writing sadism that feels tender, even when it's violent.
Five more asks under the cut! If you sent something about 666 in the past 24-ish hours, it's probably there!
Your newest channel 666 fic had me so mixed on how to feel "Oh ok they're drunk and Al's on his lap... that wasn't in the tags oh no vox isn't advancing... nevermind he's electrocuting Al, i get it, a little something to get the blood pumping oh no wait he's actually electrocuting him oh good lord he's screaming in pain"
Hahaha, god, tagging this chapter was really a fucking nightmare - if there's anything you think I missed that's important to include, PLEASE let me know, because I tried to cover my bases but I really had to give up after a bit. It's just One Of Those Chapters and the first time I've used the Graphic Violence archive warning for something that was just fully consensual sexy times, haha. I hope it was at least enjoyable overall! Alastor certainly had a good time.
I've binged your 666 series and it irreversibly changed my brain chemistry It's more canon than everything that happened in the show itself to me - @grimfeywizard
Ahhhh, thank you so much! >:D I definitely tried to mimic the style of canon for the characters, especially for the first installments before they kinda went their own way character development wise, haha. I'm glad you like it!! <3
I was at a convention all weekend and when you updated BOTH times I snuck out of my group and into a corner to read them I am completely obsessed with this series 🙏🙏🙏 -@urlocal-cryptid7
Omg, glad to add the cherry on top of your con experience, hahaha. Thank you so much!!
hey there, just wanted to say i’m absolutely enraptured with the 666 series! it’s absolutely amazing and one of my favorite fics out there right now. i’m always looking forward to it and checking for updates, great work!!!!
Ahhhh, thank you for the kind words!! I'm really enjoying writing it in all of its weirdnesses, so it's always so nice to hear that people are enjoying the odd directions it goes!
Another fun radiostatic song: The Masochism Tango by Tom Lehrer - @butwhyaretheycalledstrawberries
This is 100% what I had playing in the car on repeat when I wrote one of the previous installments, hahaha. It's a fantastic radiostatic song, especially with the level of sadomasochism I write into 666.
(Anon who was awaiting the drunk Alastor shenanigans here) Me, pre-installment 8 of 666: Oh My God, it’s happening. Everybody STAY CALM- Me, post-installment 8 of 666: *ugly sobbing* it was everything i could ever hope for, your honor. The Prince(TM) is good and merciful. So yeah, expectations met as always 👍
Omg, ehehehe - drunk Alastor was honestly SO fun to write, because it's just... taking away a lot of his worries and inhibitions, and the behaviors that normally accompany them. I took what Mimzy said about him being a kitten when he's had a few drinks and lets loose and ran with it, and it turned out very enjoyable. I'm glad you also had a good time reading, hahaha!

EATING LUNCH WITH THEM: KARASUNO EDITION
Tumblr media
FT. daichi, sugawara, asahi, nishinoya, tanaka, kageyama, hinata, tsukishima, yamaguchi, kiyoko, yachi, keishin, takeda.
W. none!
PRN. it's all gender neutral!
AN. first fanfic on this account haha, i hope you enjoy :3
Tumblr media
DAICHI
He tends to eat a lot, so make sure to add some extra bites in your lunch for him to snack on! But besides that, he will feed you like a baby, might try the whole 'brrr here comes the airplane' bit and everything as a joke, but will always make sure to say "ahhhh" when he feeds you. Although he is one person, he brings like, a small-family sized meal for lunch, mostly containing protein and a meat stuffed onigiri(pfft no it's actually a jelly donut!) But to put the cherry on top, he will share his food with you every day. You want a bite of his soy-glazed pork katsu? You can have two slices. Do the mung bean noodles look super tasty right now? Take the container, he won't miss it too much.
SUGAWARA
He really loves watching you eat. He's definitely the type to gaze into your eyes as you munch on your lunch, poking and prodding aimlessly at his own food as he watches you in a dazed state. It takes a couple tries to get him out of the state, but the battles not over yet because he's freaking out with embarrassment and blushing like crazy. He definitely likes it when you feed him to shut him up though, and he's one to savor the bite so he's groaning as he takes in all the flavors. He'll have a bit of rice stuck to the corner, so feel free to lean over the desk and kiss him there to remove it. While he eats, he tells you about what happened at club yesterday and gets so carried away he forgets to finish his lunch.
ASAHI
When he's with you, especially after being with you for a while, he's much calmer and less flustered. He's scared of looking intimidating whilst he eats, as he is hovering over the table with his larger physique. If your classmates didn't know better, they'd think he was picking on you. When he eats, he tends to stare into the food, concentrating as to not make a mess because he can be a bit clumsy at times. He'll strike up a conversation about class and things he's been up to, and if he gets carried away, he'll get very flustered, so you'll have to take his hands into yours to calm him down. He probably eats about twice more than the average person, but he shares it with you each time.
NISHINOYA
He's so hyper. He definitely eats just as much as Daichi and Asahi, but he saves room for his soda pops after practice. He'll probably bring a steamed bun from the local convenience store, but will steal about half your lunch. He'll make it up by buying you an ice cream, though. A lot of your lunch period is spent running around through the back of the school, him probably chasing you around with the goal to try and hug you, and he'll probably win. He'll show you his new receiving techniques if he has any, but after a while, he'll slow down and relax, sitting with you against the outside walls of the school building as he fiddles with your hair.
TANAKA
He will not bring lunch- or rather, he'll forget to bring it, so he'll ask you for some of your food. He's not complaining though, your food is so tasty he does it on purpose sometimes. However, if it's not on purpose, there are two options on what will happen: one, he eats your food, then goes out to get something to hold him over(of course, sharing with you) or two, Saeko speeds over and interrupts his english class to deliver his abandoned bento box. Either way, he's ok with it, even though he might be very flustered after the second. He likes it when you tease him, it gets him riled up. You come up with new ways after he figures out how to best the "I'm feeding you but I'm going to turn the food away at the last second" trick to keep him on his toes. Sometimes, you guys make a mess of yourselves and get in trouble, but it's so worth it if you had fun making said mess.
KAGEYAMA
He doesn't really eat lunch during school days. He's afraid that if he eats, he won't be in the best condition for practice. You worry about him a lot, even if it isn't much to worry about, but that's ok, because he totally listens to you no matter what. If you think he looks a bit winded, you will run out to grab him a milk and a steamed pork bun to keep him going, because it's never good to be underfed, even if it's for milk. You end up helping him find a good balance for his diet so that he can perform at his peak, and he has you to thank for his newfound stamina. He'll return the favor by buying you a treat or a bun after you stay after school until he ended practice. (He totally holds your hand on the way to the store looking like a tomato)
HINATA
Hinata eats, like, so much that you have to question if he has ever eaten as much as he weighs because he will totally do that. He's also pretty clumsy, so he tends to grab Natsu's lunch instead of his own when he's in a rush(probably because her lunch is wrapped in his old bento cloth). When he eats with you though, he's scarfing down food while speaking, chewing every so often. He'll talk about things like this: "and so *chew* I go BWAM and the ball flies down and goes BAP against the floor *chew chew* and Noya senpai runs and does the rolling thunder like ZOOM *swallows*" Hinata chokes often because of his habit of talking while eating, so keep some water by you just in case. He's unrefined, but you love that about him because he really doesn't have a care in the world when he's with you. At some point you have to teach him to swallow before talking, but for now, let him be a kid :)
TSUKISHIMA
Man does not eat with you unless you come over to eat with him. He appreciates it, but he thinks that coming to your classroom makes him look like a puppy and he has a sort of personality that he has to uphold. You don't mind, though, you know he has his reasons, and he does actually like it when you eat with him. He'll tease you while you eat, pretending to feed you and snatching the food right away(he totally brings dino nuggets every once in a while). You bring out the best in him, and the whole class can see it when he beams a genuine smile when you lunge at his food to get your revenge. Yamaguchi sits with you guys during lunch and you all talk about your days, though Tsukishima probably has his headphones on. Fortunately, out of respect for you, he only covers one ear so that he can hear your rambles about your english quiz.
YAMAGUCHI
HE IS LOYAL. HE WILL COME AS SOON AS THE BELL RINGS TO PLOP DOWN IN THE SEAT IN FRONT OF YOU. That being said, he is kind of timid so he peeks through the classroom door to make sure enough people have cleared out so that the room isn't too crowded. You two have this unspoken agreement who's going to who's classroom(you alternate) and whoever is moving goes gets a drink for the two of you, sometimes to share. If you come over, he likes to get up and get your chair for you. He'll pull it out so you can sit down, and push you back in. He'll talk about his jump float practice, and you'll talk about some random fact about your day. If you're in his room, you'll probably tease Tsukishima for being a loner type while Yamaguchi stifles his laughs. If he's in you're room, he'll speak much softer because he doesn't want to disturb anyone he doesn't know too well.
KIYOKO
You guys have a bench outside to yourselves as you eat. She eats very elegantly and offers you her food when she gets the chance. She'll talk fondly about the volleyball boys and how good Yachi has become as manager. You definitely watch her as she talks, how could you not, she's mesmerizing! Noya and Tanaka are definitely respectfully watching y'all behind a nearby structure. Sometimes during lunch, she's busy doing club stuff, but that's ok because you pop in once in a while to see if she's taking care of herself.
YACHI
Oh she's so flustered at the beginning of the relationship. She loves you, don't get her wrong, but she's constantly worrying if she's doing something wrong(ie. eating with her mouth open, choking). You reassure her for a while, but after she gets used to it, she becomes much more comfortable eating around you. She'll share her food which is really pretty/cute 85% of the time. She gets super flustered if you try to feed her, but she when she tries to feed you she'll be ecstatic, high even. She'll bring a small snack for you to share and soon you reciprocate the gesture, so lunch time is a guaranteed fun and relaxing time.
KEISHIN
He does not eat with you, or rather, he'd much rather watch you eat while he smokes his cigarette. If he takes this route, this will be the series of events: he smokes, you eat, you scold him for smoking more than twice within the hour, he groans and stifles the cigarette and joins you for lunch, he leans in to kiss you, you kiss, you make an exaggerated face at the way he tastes. If he joins you off the bat, he sits right next to you and makes it impossible to eat with him. He loves you though, so he will end up releasing you... only to steal your food. You have to chase him around the store for him to give it back, but once he does, he'll steal a kiss and wrap you in his strong arms, pressing his lips against your hair.
TAKEDA
THIS MAN. IS SO CUTE. So he doesn't always have time to eat with you, being a teacher and all, but when he does, he will literally prepare you a full meal. His nose will be buried in a cookbook trying to cook 5 things at once. When you find him, you grin and run up to him and hug him from behind. He'll be startled, so announce yourself please. You end up helping him with his meal prep and setting the table. When you eat, he'll gush about the volleyball team and his students that have grown in the past couple months. He loves talking to you so much that he will forget to eat for a couple minutes. Sometimes, he'll surprise you with a larger than life picnic basket, rushing you out of the house to take you out to the local park on a cute picnic date.

falling - a close reading
fine line, track 6
aka to be so lonely’s sad sister
Tumblr media
I'm in my bed
And you're not here
“you” and the bedroom: recurring theme ~ mmith, only angel, from the dining table 
And there's no one to blame but the drink in my wandering hands
issue echoing through mmith, only angel ⟶ cause of what pushes them apart, or symptom?
hands are empty, reaching out for loved one
Forget what I said
It's not what I meant
And I can't take it back, I can't unpack the baggage you left
recurring theme: miscommunication, or lack of ~ sott, sweet creature, two ghosts, mmith
person needed a break, left - mmith
What am I now? What am I now?
echo of lights up: finding yourself is a struggle sometimes
What if I'm someone I don't want around?
self-hate. talking to himself: “you” has left and harry is left wondering what he’s become. blaming himself for the relationship issues
I'm falling again, I'm falling again, I'm fallin’
happened before: problems with self ~ mmith, only angel
What if I'm down? What if I'm out?
being a weight in the relationship, losing himself to the point of no return, lost his way in his career
What if I'm someone you won't talk about?
needs validation, attention
“you” can be his person, or more general: the listener
You said you cared, and you missed me too
they’re in contact, talking: still trying to work things out
cared about their relationship? about harry?
And I'm well aware I write too many songs about you
we’re aware of it too
love is very much alive in this relationship: familiarity, honesty
And the coffee's out at the Beachwood Cafe
And it kills me 'cause I know we've run out of things we can say
meet up to talk, but the talking goes slow. stubborn (~ sweet creature), hurt, (the other is) afraid to be open (~ golden)
the silence makes H uneasy, makes him despair, despite the fact that they’re there - from the dining table “comfortable silence is so overrated”
you’ve run out of things to say, but still you write all these songs? boys, talk. 
And I get the feeling that you’ll never need me again
to feel wanted and needed; harry knows he needs the other person and is scared it’s one-sided
(self-)doubt
What am I now? What am I now?
What if you're someone I just want around?
variation: i just want you around and that’s what i know. i know that with more certainty than that i want myself around
SYNTHESIS
Falling is the merging of the two main themes on the album, placed perfectly at the end of the first half. There is that same deep-rooted, familiar love, mixed with that search of self and a bunch of pain.
Harry is struggling, lost, and coping in negative ways. The alcohol made him say things to his partner that he doesn’t mean, and it’s caused a spiral into self-doubt. The themes and general atmosphere match songs like Meet Me in the Hallway and Only Angel, which also feature loneliness, the other in the relationship not talking or having left, terrible or no communication and bad coping mechanisms. In Falling, however, it’s finally made explicit that there is a deeper root to their problems, or at least from Harry’s side. Echoing Lights Up, he stops to ask himself what he’s become. There’s despair in the question, but also insecurity. ‘What if’ reigns; he doesn’t have the answers. His grief is pouring out of him, this is rock bottom. “I can’t unpack the baggage you left” could mean that the other person has left Harry with the clear message to figure his shit out and stop fucking around. Stop grabbing for the bottle, stop being dramatic, stop being petty and stubborn and look inward. So Harry crashed and is left to wonder who he is exactly. 
A couple fighting and trying to work through their shit is love. The other person hasn’t abandoned Harry in his problems, they’re still there to meet up and talk and express that they care. They both miss each other. After their heavy fight, where the other left all that baggage, the conversation is stunted, but they’re still having it. 
It’s a song written about the deepest of their struggle, a time where Harry was down deep, which strained the relationship. His cry, “and I get the feeling that you’ll never need me again,” is as much a real fear as unwarranted anxiety. It’s a feeling, fuelled by self-doubt, which can often cause a skewered view of reality, especially if it's about how someone else feels about you. And, in the midst of trying to find yourself, you’re sometimes so lost you don’t even know what’s real anymore. I think this is definitely a strong element in Falling. His feelings are very intense (“it kills me”) and Harry is just overall sad about everything. This sadness is warranted, because they’re going through very real struggles, and it’s intensified by his character, which has a flair for the dramatic and a knack for self-pitying (“i’m in my bed, and you’re not here” sounds like a sad baby to me). Harry even tells us that the other has given him confirmation that they care and miss him, and still his overthinking has thrown that aside, because oh no there are silences during their conversations. These silences could even mean that the other is being careful with their words, that they’re both being more considerate and calm.
The music video shows Harry with his drink at the piano (lying on his back on the stool at first, playing the opening notes with one hand like the dramatic baby he is), in a room full of details that probably carry a plethora of meaning unknown to us (a ship and fish painted on the piano, the shutters opening to show Paris, etc). He’s dressed in a beautiful lilac blouse, draped behind him like a cape, a skirt, or even a tail. Like in Lights Up and (almost) in Adore You, Harry is underwater, which is clearly one of his preferred ways to express sadness, escape (from himself, his reflection), and loneliness (ft. hs1’s album cover). When he’s entirely submerged, the blouse transforms and floats around him. He’s a mermaid, almost. And that, then, alludes to gender, which ties everything about this song and this album together perfectly: love and self-discovery, mainly in terms of gender. The beginning of the video is actually the end, with Harry drenched and panting. So, eventually, the water ebbs away again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just like the music video hints at a happy ending, the very last variation of the chorus leaves us with a feeling of hope. “What if you’re someone I just want around?” Harry doesn’t just need them, he wants them. And that’s all he knows for now.

˚⁺‧. Yeonjun: ˚⁺‧.
Tumblr media
Yeonjun was the sweetest boyfriend one could ever ask for.
You wouldn’t have believed it back then that the boy you met at a store as a soon to be fellow classmate would be your boyfriend in the future, the one who gave you surprise kisses out of nowhere just because he wanted to. 
Well ever since you were children, you’d been best friends thanks to your parents chatting it up a storm whenever there was a party or if they met up randomly in the food aisles of Walmart. It was so boring that you would just rather choose to run away into the toy section to find some amusing things like slime or mud perfume, for example. You always hated waiting for them to finish talking about school and children by yourself as you searched for something fun to play with, and when you saw a boy your age with wide, sparkling eyes gazing at you as if you were a nice toy- that was the start of the roller coaster you could call of being Choi Yeonjun’s best friend.
Two years later after that incident, you could vividly remember the way he asked you to be his wife in the future with a cherry ring pop in hand. It was during recess and most of the other children never bothered with him during that time even if he was one of the popular kids. He was always talking about you, talking about how cool you were even if the two of you found some dirt and cherries from the tree to make mud potions with. Adorable five year old Yeonjun took your tiny hand into his and asked you to marry him due to the times you experienced together like running away from the teacher because she looked like a scary green monster or getting yelled at home together since you wandered off by yourselves. Now you couldn’t lie- the only reason you said yes was to eat it later when you got home. But years later, both of you never took it seriously, you had just assumed it was something silly children did in order to act like grownups. Because of this, you could say you truly grew up together and it was so fond to see how the two of you were in fate stuck together, hip by hip. 
High school was so much fun with him, and college was just the same. Besides studying, Yeonjun always made all of your moments in school happy no matter how sad you were. He’d walk and pick you up generously, even waiting after every single chore you volunteered to do for the teacher plus the clubs you attended to. That didn’t mean he kept whining about how much stuff you had to do. The complaining he had when you dragged him along to the library was quite the endearing bunch though, but you wouldn’t be able to give up any second you had of him. He was always right there, right beside your side where you always wanted him to stay. 
And as inevitable as it was, there were countless people whom you loved and lost, but every single time Yeonjun would thankfully be there for you, handing you tissues when you were a mess in bed, spiraling out of control thanks to what love did. Likewise it was the same for you and whenever Yeonjun had a problem with his significant other- plus they eventually broke off- you would always care for him and give him the love that they failed to give. You both figured that life would be fine together as long as you had each other... and maybe that was the push that finally brought you together.
Every single date and argument you had with him only pressed you closer and there was never a dull moment when the two of you were together. You were deeply and irrevocably in love with him and you knew down in your heart that he clearly felt the same way. Choi Yeonjun, although he wore you out whenever he asked for mint ice cream at 1am on a weekday, was the best boyfriend one could ever ask for. 
There was no doubt about it; who wouldn’t give up their entire life just to marry him? Maybe you would ask him or maybe he asked you but knowing him, he would definitely surprise you with the big news whenever you were ready. 
You opened the door after shopping by yourself for a few gifts for Yeonjun- after all, it was your four year anniversary. The front door creaked when you did so, and you winced at the sound which gave your presence away. Great, now the surprise was ruined... however, Yeonjun standing there with a grin on his face was more than good enough- perfect enough that you were left breathless in awe.
He was dressed up, adorned in a black suit that immediately reminded you of the time he first took you out on a date for a fancy dinner. It was perfect. A spotless black tie and everything, you knew he really did his best with the outfit so you would like it. His messy hair was the complete opposite of his tidied up suit, but you weren’t complaining. He still looked as dashing as ever and it made your heart stop in place when he shot you one of those sweet grins, filling up your entire chest with pure love.
You hastily dropped the gifts on the counter, frowning at the difference between the two of you. In a rush to get the presents after a long day of work, you were in your uniform- something that definitely didn’t suit your liking at all. Your anniversary celebration was supposed to be perfect, but here you were ruining it all with your tardiness and clothing. 
In response, Yeonjun’s eyes fell upon the many wrapped up gifts you had taken upon yourself to amaze him with, and you thought he was going to open them due to curiosity. Instead he just took your hand and pulled you to the living room where there was more space, his hand shuffling comfortably to wrap against your waist. 
“Let’s open them later, right now I just want to dance with the love of my life.”
The living room showed how much effort he put into the celebration. You admired the scenery, wondering how long it took for him to do it. With lit, rose scented candles, red petals of the same gorgeous flower sprinkled on the carpet, a soft instrumental of the song “Can’t Help Falling in Love” playing delicately through his speaker, you came to adore the boy in front of you so much more. His words said a lot about loving you already, but when you looked at his actions, it sized up to merely nothing.
“Jjunie, I look like a mess. Won’t you allow me to prepare first before we dance? You put all of this effort for me and I don’t even look good for it,” you muttered quietly, too quiet that you were sure he didn’t hear it. Oh but he did, and he was left feeling a bit somber about your confidence. In that moment he wished he was able to see how much he loved you regardless of your appearance. 
In doing so he pulled you closer, letting you lean comfortably on his shoulder as the two of you swayed gently back and forth. You melted into his embrace, holding him just as much as he did. The chuckle from his chest almost sounding mocking, and he in turn slowly shook his head for the answer. You sighed, knowing how stubborn he was about things like this but at least you gave a try.
Now Yeonjun was pulling you flush against his chest but still rocking you back and forth with him to the rhythm of the song. You hid your face into any part of him you were able to find, feeling embarrassed that he could still make you feel like a teenager in love. Every day was like this with him trying to make you turn into a burning tomato, but gosh did it still get all the heat explode in your face. 
His breath hitched against your ear, practically nipping on it delicately as if you were the most fragile thing on Earth. You shuddered when his voice conjured up a whisper.
“And what makes you think that? To me, you’re the most beautiful person ever and I wouldn’t think any less of it. You’re perfect to me- I’m in love with the prettiest baby there could ever be and I’m glad to call them mine.”
You bit your lip at his words, knowing fully well that it was genuine. 
“I know you tell me this every second with me, but how can I be so sure? Growing up with you was such a blessing and I’m happy as well to be able to receive it, but I’m sure you would fall for someone better.”
“Please, Y/N,” he muttered with sparkles in his eyes, “I only see you. I only want you. And I need only you in order to smile like I do every moment we’re together. I wouldn’t ever be able to get on with life without you, can’t you see? I’m nothing without you and you’re the only person who’s made me this happy.
“Everyday I’m more than grateful to be able to be with you and I know I don’t deserve such a beautiful person like you, inside and out. I still remember chasing you around the playground one Friday and pulling on your pigtails to the point where you cried. I never told you this but I swore to myself that I wouldn’t make someone I loved like you cry ever again like that. How silly was I to not know that the love of my life was in front of me at that moment?”
Saying this he leveled to the ground, bending down on one knee as you gasped in shock. What was he doing?
“I don’t ever want to lose you- I wouldn’t be able to afford it if I ever did. I just want to be with the one and only person who completes me. The one and only person who I can count on whenever I’m sick with the flu. The one and only person who takes me out to mint ice cream at 1am. The one and only person I could really call mine. The one and only person who I want to spend the rest of my life with.”
His hand shuffled in his pocket before pulling a tiny box out and he opened it, showing a tiny sparkling, ring with a resplendent diamond on the top. Not a ring pop, but a real one. You covered your mouth with your shaking hands, feeling a tear fall against your cheek. His eyes were glistening just like the first time you met him and your eyes were the same as his, tearing up because of his sincere words that were nothing less of the truth. 
“So to the person whom I love more than anyone I’ll ever be able to and my true first love... will you marry me?”
He waited for your answer but you just jumped up and pressed your lips against his, showing how much you needed him in a passionate kiss. 
“Y-yes,” you gasped with all your breath, “I’ll marry you, Yeonjun.”

˚⁺‧. Soobin: ˚⁺‧.
Tumblr media
Soobin was absolutely intolerable.
If teasing you in class in front of everyone even if it was something he viewed as lighthearted, calling you weird in front of a person that you really liked and proceeded to tell the embarrassing stories of when you were both in freshman year, and even picking you up- quite literally- when you were getting a bit too close with another person, then that was it. 
You were so tired of the tricks he was pulling, laughing when you talked back with a frustrated tone or pushing him on the chest whenever it got too much. No matter how many times you told him to screw off after a bad or good day alike, he wouldn’t listen. He must’ve been deaf or something, that’s for sure- because the amount of times you caught him staring at you was just exhausting. 
And you could imagine it- almost every day at school was like this, and you certainly had enough. When will he ever learn to leave you alone? Just a day, you prayed with all your soul throughout the years of high school. Just a day. Please...? However, a life without Soobin was too much of wishful thinking and you knew it entirely deep down. But jeez, was it enough for you to go one day of class without him bothering you incessantly?
As you slid your outfit on for prom, you thought of the first time you met him.
It was a lie to say he was the most grotesque, disgusting person you’d ever laid eyes on. It was totally a lie. So much of a lie that God wouldn’t allow you into heaven for saying something so wrong. 
Yes, you had to admit it: Choi Soobin, your one and only enemy was just the cutest. 
Well at first... you thought he was adorable. Puffy, mochi cheeks that reminded you much of like a bunny’s munching on soft bread at the table in front of yours, you swore you could say back then that he was the one you were waiting for all your life in your teenage mind that is. He always shot you a kind smile that only radiated warmth and maybe if you weren’t too shy to say something, then the two of you could’ve been great friends or possibly something more. But as always you stayed next to your friends, wanting hopelessly that he would be the first person to make the move. That saying by itself was too much though. If he wasn’t such a jerk, then you were sure you would’ve already fallen in love with him by now. 
Events like this piled on you every week and you found yourself staring at him every lunch as he did the same. The eye contact felt like electricity whenever it happened. You were entirely entranced by the boy before you, gazing wishfully that you two would actually get to know each other. You were dying to know what secrets lied under those doe eyes and fresh handsome face, not even able to eat your lunch from how concentrated you were of him. Plus he wasn’t intimidating in the sense many people think, it’s just that you were afraid he was going to judge you when you obviously liked him that much. Every now and then you would catch yourself staring at him during the classes you had with him, and that already said a lot. 
Now here comes the worst part. The absolute worst part that wrecked your very important first impression of yourself to him. 
The story goes like this. You weren’t watching your step after finishing your lunch tray, thoughtlessly bringing it towards the garbage can right across the corner. And with that you weren’t looking who was in front of you, trying to throw his trash away in the opposite trash can on the other side of the room. Unfortunately, with him coming right at you and with you looking towards the ceiling at the ball somehow lodged under the pipes, you crashed into him food and all flying everywhere... and at the boy you tried so hard to talk to. 
Okay, so maybe you deserved all of this torment.
Soobin’s cheeks were so red when the tray made a clamorous sound of a clunk and all of the people in the room slowly realizing, started to laugh at the scene in the middle of the room. The glare he sent you gave you shivers down your back as you kept profusely apologizing, trying to wipe away the food on his uniform shirt to no avail. It was like hell to you, and you had never felt so embarrassed in front of a boy your whole entire life.
Soobin just furrowed his eyebrows at your shaky apologies, bending down to hand you your tray. Like a fool, your heart was pounding in your chest when he pushed the tray into your arms as you murmured yet another sorry. The napkins were useless. Obviously he wasn’t able to take it but out of all the chaos, you could hear him whisper something of “meet me in front of the school gate after school” into your ears. 
And you being the worst person you were after spilling rice all over him just had to do it out of guiltiness. For sure you didn’t know what you were getting into as soon as he opened his mouth, giving you a list of chores just for the fun of it. Getting a can of coke for him at the very top school floor because the vending machine there was somehow better than the other ones, buying him a new shirt even when he was just kidding about it, letting him do your hair for a day to go to school in was all you needed to do on the list, but the torment kept coming. He never let you live it down and at this point you were 
What you weren’t expecting however, was for Soobin to be right there at the dance floor, searching around for someone who wasn’t there. Your heart skipped a beat when you saw him in his raven suit, looking as handsome as ever with his entrancing smirk and grinning eyes. You hushed it down, beating your chest down with a hand when you abruptly heard a familiar voice tug at your ears.
“Ah, Y/N! Thank gosh you look terrible today. I guess I have no choice to be your date today, 
Who else could it be?
“Oh, it’s you,” you deadpanned, rolling your eyes when that endearing chuckle rolled by. What were you expecting? It wasn’t as if he was going to stop making fun of you just because this was supposed to be one of the memorable nights in your entire life. You begged to differ though. Awkward and stiff, you hoped that you didn’t stick out like a sore toe in all this fun. Many other students looked like they were having the time of their life, but they were a bit... sweaty and stinky? Mostly the boys but you weren’t paying much attention when Soobin was right in front of you. 
“And me- being your date?!” You asked incredulously, looking as if he had committed a crime. “Why me when you literally have the attention of people all over the whole school?”
When you said this his cheeks turned red before he swatted the tint away. Looks like you had an effect on him. You were sure you hit a nerve because he was stuttering now, unable to look in your eyes as if avoiding them would do the trick. You wondered what he was thinking of before his eyes flashed with an unreadable mischievousness. 
“Hey, don’t you think we should dance? This opportunity comes only once in our life. And you don’t know what may happen,” he suggested, tugging gently on your hand. You hadn’t even realized he grabbed it but just the feeling of it made your ears turn hot. Anymore of this and you would faint by the end of the night.
In no time, Soobin led you to the dance floor where everyone else was dancing. The music changed little by little and it was finally the time that every couple was waiting for. Grant that you weren’t a couple, but maybe one time you’ll let it slide. He must’ve planned this- to ask you by now; the smirk said everything. You rolled your eyes and just admired the several colors of light reflecting off the disco ball, letting an ardent smile engrave your face. That is, until he spoke up,
“Oh wow, I can’t believe you said yes. I thought you’d slap me because I asked,” he teased, bringing you along the rhythm of his feet.
You scoffed at him, glaring down at the floor and at his polished shoes.
“Well, I should’ve. But I’m not that mean of a person and I wouldn’t want to embarrass you again.”
His hand slowly slid down to your waist almost as if he was teasing you while you just rocked awkwardly, feeling the breath in your lungs deplete little by little from how suddenly gentle he was. You were so caught off guard, almost paralyzed in your spot from how casual he did this, like he had done it every single day of his life.
“Listen, I know you hate me and all, but don’t be so stiff. You know I won’t hurt you,” he whispered gently, taking you into his arms. Your heart clenched at the forbidden feeling called ‘oh my gosh you’re turning into the naive freshman who didn’t at first know Soobin’s colors,’ but your burning throat didn’t allow yourself to say anything. He’d just make fun of you if you opened your mouth to say something.
Instead you swayed along with him, listening to the sweet music the person in charge put on. The voice sounded familiar, sweet and melodic, drifting through the room of many people who stopped to look at the person responsible. You, however, was completely blind to this, only focusing on the fact that you were dancing with your sworn enemy. 
Soobin’s hands danced to your waist and you shuddered, biting your lips when he suddenly spoke up.
“Isn’t it a nice song?”
Was he kidding? The more you listened to it, the more you fell in love with it. It sounded soft, so sincere that you were left wanting more. But you couldn’t put your finger on who was singing, although it sounded so damn familiar. 
You just nodded, looking at his chest more so than his face. You were too shy to look at him straight in the eyes, those eyes that seemed to smolder you every time you made eye contact with him. It reminded of you before the time you spilled that cursed rice on him, but you didn’t want to think about those memories anymore. It’d only remind you of how perfect everything could’ve turned out and that you wouldn’t have to deal with a boy like him.
Somehow Soobin pulled you even closer, letting his hand linger on your cheek where it stayed. He treated you with the utmost carefulness, cupping your cheek softly like you were the most fragile thing. You melted into it instantly, admiring his warmness and how he could act this way so as to not ruin your night.
“Believe it or not, I wrote this song for you... I asked the DJ to put it on today. It’s funny to me that you can’t even hear your own name in the song. I thought my own voice would sound familiar to you, you silly goose,” he choked out, letting a smile adorn his face when the realization caught onto you. 
Wait... 
That voice...
Was Soobin?!
And he wrote it for you?!
You instantly connected the dots together, looking at him straight in the eyes now. He was kidding. He had to be. But this...? You weren’t able to comprehend that it was written for you due to the fact you thought he hated you. He hated you, right? With everything he was doing, it was so obvious! You ruined his image in the beginning of the year and if you were put into his shoes, you would’ve hated yourself too. But... but why did the song have to be so loving with cheesy lyrics and the most important to mention, your name! 
All this tugging and pulling on your heart- you couldn’t take it! You couldn’t take the signals he kept sending you and then pushing away like you were nothing!
You stopped immediately, making him pause as well.
“Why are you acting like this? Do you genuinely enjoy seeing me frustrated like this? If you do, then it’s not funny. You’re just the worst,” You cried desperately, tearing up as the taste of frustration lingered on your tongue. Explaining yourself when you were mad at him was the worst-- especially when you couldn’t help sobbing along at how upset you were when he said unbelievable, sweet words.
You were about to start on your feet, away from Soobin- away from someone you tried so damn hard to hate after everything he’d done to you, pushing yourself away from his embrace when he grabbed your arm.
Looking at him you could see how genuine he was under those sparkling, doe eyes gazing at you intently with a somber frown. It had seemed like he acknowledged that fact already, but it only made matters worse. 
“Y/N, I just... look, it’s so hard for me to say but I... I really, really like you, alright? I’m so in love with you and everything you do for the time I get to see you whether that be in class or at lunch. The way you look, the way you act, the way you carry yourself when things get hard... gosh, don’t you know what you’ve done to my heart? Why did you have to steal it so quickly when we made eye contact for the first time?”
He started leaning in now, but you were standing too still at the confession. It was stupid, but the tears in your eyes were preventing you from saying anything. He must’ve been kidding- he had to be! He had to be lying... he just had to, right? But the heartfelt words being spilled from his lips proved that he was more in love with you than anyone else and he was showing it right now. 
And at the most vital moment- just before touching your lips with his- he stopped. Robbed you of whatever was going to happen. Took away what freshman and present you wanted most. He was just close enough that you could feel his breath fan across your lips, almost mocking you of how close you were going to get him. 
“Is this okay?” He breathed impatiently, almost glazing his lips against yours to the point where you were considering making the move yourself. 
“Yes, yes it is, stupid. And gosh you have to know how whipped I am for you too,” you shakily blurted out, letting him know how much you really liked him as well. Your hands almost covered your big fat mouth from saying much more, but what was done was unfortunately done. 
That was it. He knew it now. The whole truth you were dying to let him know. You finally said it and the prolonged silence between the two of you made you want to take back your words, but the way Soobin reacted the moment you said that-
it was enough for him to crash his lips against yours.

˚⁺‧. Beomgyu: ˚⁺‧.
Tumblr media
“My dearest Y/N, what are you doing out here? Please come back with me to the castle; it isn’t safe to be here, you know that.”
Wait... when did he show up here?
And d-dearest? You had to be hearing things! 
Immediately you stopped hiding your sullen face in your gloved hands, slowly looking up to see the boy you were thinking of the entire time. In all of his dashing presence, you couldn’t help but notice there was a deep frown on his face. It was almost as if he was disappointed in you leaving, and the remorseful tone in his words made it crystal clear. But it didn’t make any sense at all... how could he be in the secret garden you always came to whenever things got rough? He wouldn’t have known anything about it, not unless he followed you here. 
You instantly got up from where you were sitting on the white angel bench, struggling to speak loudly enough for him to hear.
“P-Prince Beomgyu...? Why are you here? Shouldn’t you be there trying to find someone good enough for your betrothed? I thought you didn’t see me... leave...”
Ardently the prince suddenly smiled when you said this, shaking his head in amusement while you scrambled to find words that would fill the empty, comfortable atmosphere. He seemed to be teasing you with his adorable grin, eyes filling with luminous sparkles as the eye contact he kept making with you wouldn’t come to an end. It reminded you of the stars you always wanted to see from up close, the beautiful ones you had studied a few months before with the old books the queen had received years ago when she too was a princess. Yet, you hated how nervous he obviously made you and eventually looked away from his enamoured gaze that held nothing but love.
“I was looking for you, and I guess I looked right. Mind telling me why you’re here now, prince/ss?”
His soft voice warmed your ears all the more, its velvet low timbre echoing through the moonlight as he took a few steps towards you. He reached out his hand easily, waiting for you to take it but you just weren’t able to, not with what happened back there. The look on your face must’ve been priceless when you sensed he was coming closer and you instinctively took a few steps back, unfortunately tripping onto one of the rose bush vines and falling backwards.
Preparing to fall to your ultimate demise, you shut your eyes tightly- not caring if you died right then and there. It wouldn’t matter much anyway, right? What a pretty way to die, right there in front of whom you wanted to call your beloved. 
“Hey, be careful!”
In a split second, you felt someone’s arms wrap around your torso, their hands holding tightly around your waist so you wouldn’t fall. It felt way too familiar to you and you opened your eyes, gasping once you saw who saved you. 
Filling your ears again was the warm, tender voice of Prince Beomgyu who stared right down at you with concern in his expression. You looked up to him with wide eyes, wondering when he was going to level you to the ground as expected. However, it seemed like he wasn’t going to do just that yet; you could see the mischievousness in the smug smirk he was wearing. Then to keep you secure, he brought you closer towards him but didn’t dare to let go of his comfortable position over your waist. 
“You just proved my point,” he murmured, “Why did you come out here when you know it isn’t safe here in the first place, dear?”
The moonlight glistened across his face, showing radiantly his beauty as the heart caged in your chest performed several flips. It was always like this whenever you saw him... wherever, really, at the balls or whenever his family made a trip to Amaryllis Kingdom. Before shuffling away from him on your own accord your eyes flickered to his lips, exhausted to see how much you were entranced by him.
“Why did I come out here? And you’re calling me, your dear?! With all due respect, will you stop acting like you do not know?” 
You scoffed tiredly at his words, dusting yourself off as you pushed him away from you. The pent up frustration was clear in your voice and you almost felt guilty for him, if not for what he did back there. What was he expecting to say when you were angry solely at his actions? An okay? An agreement to go to the castle again when he was more interested in what your best friend had to say?
He shot an incredulous look at you, furrowing his eyebrows until they knit sourly together. “What are you saying? I’m flabbergasted here! Tell me what’s been going on so I can make it better!”
You shook your head back and forth rapidly, pursing your lips as he inched towards you through little steps.
“If you wanted to make it better, then you shouldn’t have avoided me like I was the plague! It’s been such a long time seeing you after the last ball, and I- I miss you terribly... I just don’t understand why you had to leave me to seek out my friend.” Your voice became as quiet as a mouse squeaking when you neared towards the end of your words, holding back at yelling at him when it really wasn’t his fault for finding someone better for his betrothed anyway. It didn’t mean it hurt any less still, knowing that you were so close to the chance of loving someone so sweet and caring like him. 
Beomgyu reached out to you tenderly and this time you took it silently without complaint, watching as he pressed a few kisses on the top of your hand. How could someone cause you to feel so many things in a minute, making your anger vanish the second he let those words fly out of his lips? 
“That wasn’t what I meant to do, prince/ss...”
In a crumbling motion, the rest of your resentment dissipated and dripped into the puddle right beside you. It slowly became into a sadness that even his smile wouldn’t be able to heal, showing you how you should’ve never messed with the entanglements and matters of love. It only indicated how much you were doomed to accept the fact that he would never be yours. 
“Enlighten me, please,” you begged now, ignoring how his blossom lips trembled upon hearing your despondent request. 
Instead he just took your hand into one of his, squeezing tightly so that you would listen. His lace sleeve brushed up against your arm as he went to cup your cheek, making you shudder along with the breeze that flew by the two of you. The warmness of his hand made you lean against it, sighing in relief at how long the desire to at least touch him was finally satisfied. 
“That never was my intention, Y/N. I apologize for making you feel like that, I truly am a fool not to notice. I was talking to your friend to know the things you wanted in an ideal prince. I thought I wouldn’t ever be good enough for you so that took way longer than expected... And I guess I’ve missed you for so long too that I was a bit nervous to face you, but I know that isn’t an excuse either. I’m so sorry for my actions tonight. I’ll make it up to you once we get back to the ballroom.” His thumb rubbed softly against your cheekbone as the desperation in his eyes caught onto you, letting you know how much sincerity there was in both his words and lips.
And yet, you couldn’t help but smile. He was always so caring like this, despite making everything out of humor, and maybe that’s why you fell in love with him.
“You should’ve asked me first, Gyu.” He cringed at the way you seemingly forget to mention his title before you continued again. “You know that you’re more than good enough for me. You’re simply... perfect.” You let the word fall off your lip and the prince again shot you another charming grin that had your heart pitter-pattering in your chest. 
“I know that now,” he teased, pulling you closer to his arms in an embrace. You wallowed in it for a few seconds, hugging him back as well. He laughed at this, letting his chin drop comfortably on the top of your head.
“Now come on, didn’t I say I was going to make it up to you? Let’s head back to the castle now, my love.” He started to lead you out of your secret garden and into the royal pathway, much to your despise. 
You weren’t sure what happened... It seemed like the happiness you just experienced crashed on your shoulders in waves, and you screamed unfortunately right in his ear.
“No!”
You dug your heels into the dirt, forbidding him to go any farther than what he was hoping. He quickly turned back to you after wincing from the abrupt pain, checking up on you worriedly after your outburst. 
“I don’t want to go back there,” you whispered, looking into his eyes this time. It felt like electricity to you- to know that he was right there listening to you, listening to your worries in order to let you know that he cared.
“Why?” He let his hand trail down to tuck a fallen hair strand behind your ear, and you felt all the more guilty for bothering him like this. It was enough for yelling at him needlessly earlier when it wasn’t what he meant to do, but now this? You caught sight of the mud on your ankles, knowing that the king and queen wouldn’t be too happy about it.
“Because... I hate it there. I know we’re royalty- you’re a prince and I’m a prince/ss, but I don’t want any other people looking at you. They don’t know who you’re going to choose as your betrothed yet- it just makes me anticipate whoever you’re going to pick!”
The expression on Prince Beomgyu’s face was absolutely endearing as he ruffled the top of your head, finding entertainment at your embarrassment. You cringed at how your crown almost fell off, trying to slide it back on as Beomgyu did it for you. 
“You’re so cute,” he chuckled, making all the heat in your face become prominent. This effect he had on you was always surprising, and you were sure he knew that from the confession you just made. You internally groaned at yourself. Why should you be shocked when he never misses the chance to say stuff like this?
“Then... how about we slow dance here instead? After all, I’m sure you can hear the blasting music from here,” he suggested, lifting a curious eyebrow for your response. 
True to his words, you could hear most of the strings from the castle below to your secret garden. You weren’t that far from the castle and both of you wanted to give it a chance, so why hold back now? You let him take not only your hand into the melody of “Clair de Lune,” but also your heart. 
He just smiled nervously at you, allowing you to wrap your arms behind his neck. A rush of nostalgia passed through you, reminding you of the time when you first danced together last year at the ballroom. All too familiar, his hands slid towards your waist and you giggled at the tickling sensation, wallowing at how close he was- enough to press a kiss to his button nose. It was easy to follow his swaying movements back and forth, but you were cautious this time not to trip into the thorny rose bushes. 
Beomgyu carefully twirled you beside him, admiring the way your attire followed you along as well.
“Wait, you do know one thing, right?”
You tilted to your head to the side. What he was taking about- you weren’t sure at all. But you let him continue, feeling his arms bring you closer to his chest.
“You do know that... I love you. So much and entirely so. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Prince/ss Y/N. I want to treat you well and make that beautiful smile of yours become a main part of our life together. I want to have children of our own with you and watch them grow up into princes and princesses or whatever they choose to be themselves. I want to love you for the rest of our life and announce you mine.”
He stopped dancing this time, leaning towards you with hooded eyes. You allow him to, choosing to shut your eyes as well. 
“Now tell me,” he whispered, laying a chaste soft kiss to your lips breathlessly, “will you be my queen when the time comes?”
You only nodded back, melting into the kiss as you took him into an affectionate embrace. 
“Yes, of course, my prince.”
Finally... at last, you found your Prince Charming.

˚⁺‧. Taehyun: ˚⁺‧.
Tumblr media
Needless to say, you were in love with Kang Taehyun. 
You were so in love with the way he made extra time for you in his schedule even if he was busy studying. You were so in love with how he would pick you up despite your protests because apparently he felt unsafe when you weren’t with him. You were so in love with the way he took care of you whenever things got rough and comforted you through the little things like mood swings and disappointment when the waitress forgot to bring out your favorite cake. You were so in love with how he never rushed you into the relationship, promising to wait for you until you were ready. You were so in love with how caring he was towards you; every single day you spent with him made you feel as if you were on top of the world. 
Even curled up in his arms now, you could feel the love you had for him swell in your chest as you looked at the mesmerizing him. He was holding you so gently, so sweetly, letting sweet words fall from his lips in order to make you smile. It obviously worked because you were nothing more than a giggling mess, watching him like a fool to get you to smile. Honestly, he wasn’t that much for public affection, but when it was the only two of you... you were allowed to say that he was clingy and wanted to hold on tight so that you’d never leave. 
The white blanket from beneath you fluttered a little in the breeze and you shivered from how chilly it was. You should’ve brought a coat earlier like Taehyun had said, but it was the summer so it couldn’t have been that cold! You wrapped yourself in your arms, trying to get up if not for the deathly hug of Taehyun. Instead it only encouraged him to hold tighter onto you all the more, squeezing your arms tight in his embrace.
“I told you to wear at least something warmer, Y/N. Now you’re clearly shivering and I don’t want to give up my coat just for you,” he teased and that caused you to hit him playfully on the arm. 
“I didn’t ask for a coat! I love the weather when it’s like this... especially when I’m with you,” you shut your eyes and stuck your tongue at him. The boy just pretended to gag and that made you laugh at his silly reaction.
The birds chirping from up above caught your attention, and you noticed how freely they seemed to be flapping their wings. As corny as it is, maybe one day you’d feel like flying with Taehyun. You weren’t sure how you were going to do it, but you want to make him the happiest he’s ever been in his whole entire life. Hmm... a nice moment of quiet would be good enough for you to think of a solution to that problem. 
Although the silence was nice after that moment, you wanted to do something fun. It’s true that you were already happy since you had the day to spend with him, but this could be the cherry on top before you had to go home. Earlier you went shopping for what he liked and paid for it while he wasn’t looking, despite all of his complaints and tired that definitely hurt your ears. Then the two of you went for ice cream and you teased him about mint flavor before deciding to get the cone. It gave you an idea to have a picnic date with him, minus the food since you already ate lunch together. But it was more than perfect to be with him, really! 
“Taehyun,” you whined, “I’m bored! Don’t you think we should do anything better for your birthday? 
“But it’s pretty,” he pouted, “I thought you liked doing weird stuff like this, you weirdo.”
Rolling your eyes, you picked at the blanket beneath you, kneading it between your fingers as you thought of what to do. “I do, but there has to be a much nicer thing to make your smile wider, you weirdo.”
He let out a huff of amusement, nodding his head along to your idea. “Then what do you think will do that?”
You snickered at his mocking words, swatting his arm away from you so you could get up. He let a grunt of refusal as he let go before you took his hand into yours. He got up soon after with a pearly smile you wouldn’t ever be able to erase from mind. Something like that every day would certainly boost your serotonin if you had to look at it 24/7.
“Hmm... how about we dance?” You shyly suggested, watching his face morph into a sincere smile. It was cheesy, you knew that, but you were hoping Taehyun would at least say yes considering it was his birthday and you wanted him to have fun instead of just looking out into the blue horizon. Not that you were complaining about that though.
“Dance?” He couldn’t help but laugh teasingly at your request, like you had spoken in a language he couldn’t understand. “I know you’re cheesy and all, but dance?! That’s way too-” he gasped when you took him by the hand and started to tug him into a round of slow dancing.
Thankfully you had already set on some light music going on earlier when you had arrived, and it played loud enough so only the two of you could hear it. The one that you heard currently- was it “Sakura Kiss” but the strings version? You recognized it as you watched Taehyun pretend to cringe when you wrapped your arms around him. 
“You’re really weird, I have no clue why I even agreed to do this in the first place.” He stepped towards the back and you were careful not to step on his feet accidentally. Although, that would be pretty funny- not that you’re admitting it!
You just giggled at his words, and he slid his hands to your waist. It felt like sparks to you, pure electricity coursing through your veins the moment he pulled you closer to him. Actually, he was debating whether or not he should start to tickle you, but it would just ruin the moment. Little did you know that he actually wanted to go along with it, guiding you through the music so that you wouldn’t be too stiff when dancing with him.
“But you’re in love with this weirdo, huh?” He wouldn’t answer this one, you were sure. He’d say something about how corny it was and how you could’ve said anything else but that. 
Instead he let one hand come away from your waist before slipping into one of yours.
“Yes, I absolutely am.”
Not only was Taehyun’s wish of being happy on that day came true, but he also got to experience really flying with you even when it wasn’t possible.

“What are you up to on a late night?”
Well, that’s what you were going to ask your best friend Kai until he so rudely crashed into your house at 1am through the kitchen window despite all of your whines not to do that since he could hurt himself and even worse- break the window itself. You shouldn’t have been surprised at this point when he peeked his head through the door of your room, but how could you not be when there wasn’t any racket downstairs as a sign he was making his grand appearance? And don’t get started on how the door just randomly creaked loudly, giving you a major heart attack that a thief entered your house! 
All of your grumbling and rambling about how he should just go home and rest in his very comfy bed that you somehow accidentally slept in before wasn’t enough for him to leave and he decided to join you in your journey of rewatching Cinderella. You were pleased to have a partner who could make you laugh along the whole experience, but you weren’t sure what he was doing up so late. As it was mentioned above the time just reached 1am and once you were done with this movie, it’d probably be closer to three. Not to mention that it wasn’t safe to come out of his house during the night even if he lived a few houses away.
“Kai, what are you doing here?! Don’t you know how unsafe it is to just randomly pop in to my house at what gosh knows in the morning?” You threw one of the pillows you were laying on towards him, purposely knowing that it was his favorite whenever he came by. Obviously you weren’t going to say you cuddled it to sleep when you missed the boy who didn’t get the chances to visit you, and hopefully he wouldn’t notice how worn down it already was after a few months of use.
Kai just jumped into bed beside you, reaching out a hand to ruffle your hair. 
“Ooh, looks like someone is worried for me~ don’t worry, I brought my favorite plushy to protect me just in case,” he winked at you but you ignored it, focusing on getting the movie on the TV screen instead.
“At least tell me a good reason. I might forgive you this once but it doesn’t mean I condone your actions.” Every time you said this, you forgave him when you really shouldn’t have. It only encouraged him to come all the more, and you knew that through and through. But still! He should really know how worried you get whenever he spontaneously plans his visits to see you! 
Kai just sighed, and you could imagine the disappointed pout on his face. Stealing another glance at him, you weren’t shocked to find out he was doing the exact same thing like you expected. After all, you knew Kai for a really long time not to notice these adorable little habits about him.
“I’m just bored. And Tobin really wanted to see you this time!” He proudly showed the bunny plushy in front of you, and it made you smile a little bit before quickly wiping the effect off. 
“Okay, fine,” you groaned, beckoning him to come cuddle up against you like he always did, “you can stay as long as you like but next time if you aren’t careful, I’m saying no.”
He gladly took the offer, clearly staying in agreement to your words as he snuggled beside you to wait for the movie to finally initiate.
“Ah, thank you, Y/N! I knew I could count on you to be up this late!”
Not even ten minutes passed by since he supposedly broke in like you called it, and heavy rain started to crash down onto the roof. It was nice for moods like this and the white noise of raindrops always managed to calm you down as well, but you were worried for when Kai wanted to go home. How would he get to his house without being soaked? It’d definitely create a wet mess. Well that is... unless he wanted to- no, you shouldn’t get ideas like this, assuming he’s uncomfortable with it! 
But there really was no loss in trying, right? You braced yourself for the hard rejection you knew that was coming. 
“You know,” you bashfully offered, throwing him another fluffy pillow from across the bed so he could get more cozy, “you don’t have to walk out in the rain like that once the movie is done. It’s raining cats and dogs out there. You can always just stay... with me.” You absolutely hated how your voice shriveled up to the end, showing how embarrassed you were to even ask him in the first place. 
He caught it easily, holding it tight to his chest soon after. “You’re acting like I wasn’t going to do that. Why not spend a night with my favorite person in the whole world? Let’s have a sleepover, Y/N~!”
Didn’t he know what he was doing?! And oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, you couldn’t believe it- he actually said yes! But of course, with a few pitter-patter comments here and there. 
What were you thinking? You felt all the hot blood rush to your face and you hid it with another pillow close by. Hoping he would’t hear anything, you just muttered how embarrassed you were to yourself but boy oh boy, he caught it all and grinned in endearment at how cute you were. You wouldn’t be able to see that smile on his face anyway, unfortunately not with the pillow you hid yourself with. 
...
You had been so tangled in the story that you didn’t realize Kai was more focused on you compared to the movie. He would look up to the screen sometimes, however he couldn’t help but look back at you more than the film for some reason. It didn’t mean you didn’t check up on him from time to time to make sure he was feeling completely comfortable. You knew fully well that he was staring at you but you decided to ignore it. At first you thought he was just spacing out, but it was way too coincidental to be true. 
The scene finally got to the part where Cinderella was dancing with Prince Charming, glass slippers and all. As a kid you were always fond of this moment because one day you wanted someone in your life like that. Whoever it may be, as long as they love you for who you really are then you’d be happy to call them your significant other. And yet, every single time you would always be faced with Kai in your mind whenever you dreamed of this. 
“What are you staring at me for?”
“Oh, nothing,” he taunted with a mocking voice before taking your hand into his. Then without a warning, he tugged you up from beside him, pulling you in front of the screen. You laughed at how sudden it was, and cautioned at him a little bit. 
“Kai! Gosh, at least give me a warning before you pull me up,” you whisper-shouted, being careful enough not to create too much noise. Luckily the rain was able to replace the sound of both of you getting up from the creaky bed, serving as another distraction for your parents not to know your best friend was in the room.
As you watched him in confusion, he made no sound grabbing your hands so they’d wrap just below his neck. You asked him what he was doing quietly a few times when he simply shut you down like that, his hands naturally trailing down to your waist as if he was planning something.
When he was done with the finishing dances of preparing the both of you, he noticed you were distracted in Cinderella and the prince dancing and leaned your attention towards him again by grasping your cheek in his right hand. 
“Come on,” he shot you another charming grin that sent your heart into a mayhem, “let’s slow dance.”
You gulped instinctively, nodding your head slowly. 
“O-oh, sure...”
You couldn’t allow yourself to say no. How could you say no when your heart was screaming yes and with him so close to you than he’d ever been? You weren’t the best at slow dancing when you had to cooperate with a partner, but he made it quite easy for you. Although, it wasn’t a big surprise when he could do anything he put his mind to. Kai was simply an excellent musician- he got the hang of the beat so you just followed his lead, letting him sway gently to the sweet song. 
The moment was magnificently magical, enough so that you wanted it to last forever. Eye contact was a bit much for you- especially when you were starting to have forbidden feelings for a friend who most likely doesn’t reciprocate the same ones- but somehow, you found the strength to keep looking at him without quivering up into a nervous ball. As the song played, you memorized every detail of his face as you could, counting his eyelashes to sketching how perfect his nose was in your mind. You were so lucky to have him in your life... you really couldn’t imagine a day without knowing he was there for you.
The rest of the song finished, but you knew he didn’t want to let go just yet. No other words were spoken but with his eyes that followed yours, you were able to tell how much you meant to him. More than a friend or just a friend? You weren’t sure at all, but you knew one thing. With the way he gazed at you- and perhaps you were deluding yourself when you thought this- it was clear to see that his stare was fill of enamor and love towards you and you only. He could’ve been watching the rain fall from outside and race against the windows, yet it seemed like he never wanted to look away either.
Your heart swelled in joy with this, but... at the same time...
When were you ever going to tell him these growing feelings? When were you going to let him know before you inevitably fell in love even deeper? How were you going to do it with all these insecurities of whether he likes you back or not weighing down? There were too many questions for you to really take. In all of this thinking while beside him- you couldn’t be for sure, however you weren’t going to rush yourself because there was still an eternity to spend with him right by your side like he promised.

heyyy for hc requests got any other reki and langa hc's plsss I love them sm :,)
ahhhh of course! i love these two i can't get enough of them oughhh. hope you enjoy! I tried not to repeat too much, but there might be some overlap, sorry about that!
Reki:
SOOOO ticklish it's not even funny
his ticklish spots are his tummy, ribs, and under his arms!
light tickles make him giggle like a little baby, but if you tickle him a bit rougher he'll squawk
He prefers lighter tickles tho because they're more fun that way
He gets tickled more often than he'd like to admit, mostly by Langa or Miya, but sometimes Cherry and Joe gang up on him as well if he's in a bad mood
he's very dramatic being tickled, like he'll flop around and beg and whine, the whole shebang
he prefers to be the one doing the tickling, but he doesn't mind it when it's his friends or family
though when it's his family it's a bit embarrassing lol
he's such a dork as a ler but he's definitely himself lol
he's a bit uncoordinated and he's terrible at teasing, but somehow it works?? and he can really get someone laughing lmao
his face also gets suuuper red when you tickle him or tease him a little bit, it's really cute
Langa:
he's not anywhere close to being as ticklish as Reki (almost no one is) but he's still pretty ticklish
his neck is really ticklish oughhh but also his hips and his shoulders!
Langa is different from Reki cuz he likes both recieving and giving tickles
He's a really sweet ler, his teases are more like compliments (if he actually tries to tease people it's really awkward lol) and his tickles are really gentle, and he always makes sure to not push people past their limits
unless it's a tickle fight, then all of that goes out the window
tickle fights are really common between Langa and Reki but they're besties so it makes sense lol
Miya and Reki gang up on Langa sometimes, like when they're practicing in the skatepark if he falls they just pounce on him before he even has a chance to register what's happening
Langa laughs pretty hard regardless of how you tickle him, but he has the sweetest laugh omg
Aaand that's all I got for right now! Hope you liked it!

Leon and Taka preparing for their wedding.
Hey anon!
Ahhhh yay! Sweet content! I dig it! Let the boys enjoy the build up!
It's quite cool too - I get to revisit the fun of wedding planning without the stress and pressure! Ha!
Thank you for this! I hope you enjoy!!
*******************
• Even though Taka proposes when they're 22, they don't actually get married until they're 27.
• Why? Because it takes that long for Taka to put into motion the legality of gay marriage.
• He isn't Prime Minister yet, although is soon to be in the running, but he's got some influence and at the age of 26, he has been integral in the law finally getting passed.
• Which is HUGE.
• And the moment he comes home, he proposes all over again to Leon (this time much more dramatically and with a lot more tears on his part).
• They start looking at venues that same night.
• It's more accurate to say 'venue' as Taka has already decided on the perfect place.
• They flicker through a few not-really options (since Taka knows Leon hasn't been thinking they would get married in the near future so wants him to have the experience) before he lands on where it'll happen.
• It's a hotel in the forest that does woodland weddings - just like he told Leon back in highschool.
• And of course Leon falls in love and they arrange a viewing as soon as possible.
• The original plan was to marry on their anniversary but Taka (the hopeless romantic he is) has the vision of the cherry blossoms which only bloom in April - so they settle on a Spring date in exactly a years time.
• It's safe to say that Taka takes charge of the planning.
• He's been thinking about this day since the day he proposed and has a clear idea of what he wants.
• Thankfully, Leon isn't fussed about the details. All he wants is to legally marry the man he loves in front of his friends and family.
• So he'll dip his toe in here and there when Taka asks his opinion, otherwise he's perfectly content to take a back seat.
• They work together on a guest list - restricted to 50 people at the ceremony.
• Of course family is first and friends next - all of Class 78 getting invites.
• Taka handmakes the invites with the help Leon's mum.
• They talk about best men, ushers and witnesses and come to a clear decision:
• Mondo is Taka's best man and Chi is Leon's. The ushers are Hina and Hiro (to Taka's anxiety) and they ask them to be the witnesses too.
• They have a stag do each - on separate weekends since they're practically inviting the same people).
• One is messier than the other...but that's for another day!
• Leon re-learns how to waltz so that he can surprise Taka on the day for their first dance (which is something Taka allowed him to take control of).
• He also thinks they'll go suit shopping together but OH NO - Taka is traditional and doesn't want to see his groom in his outfit until he walks down the aisle.
• In fact, he doesn't even want Leon to know his OWN outfit until the day - something Leon's happy to go along with.
• He is, however, allowed to know that they will both be in white - their signature colour from back in their Hope's Peak days.
• As the day gets closer and closer, Leon gets nervous.
• Not cold feet. Just that sort of excited nerves and all of it feels super real all of a sudden.
• So as Taka's busy sorting some form of wedding thing out one evening, Leon plops onto his lap and huddles in to ignore the pout on Taka's face.
• 'We're getting married.'
• That melts all the grump in Taka and he can't help but snuggle into his fiance.
• 'We are.'
• 'I can't wait to be an Ishimaru.'
• Taka doesn't respond, just pulls him in closer with a knowing smile hidden from view.
• Little does Leon know that he's got something in mind to surprise him that day.
• Something he's already talked to his father and Leon's parents about.
• Something that he would only ever do for the man in his arms.
• And he can't wait for it.

Hi, guys! Sorry for the rather long hiatus. Work is still...soul-consuming haha. But I wanted to make a post about one of my favorite Japanese artists and this really cool song he released a little bit ago! All of his songs just got added to Spotify finally yesterday!
His name is 米津玄師 Yonezu Kenshi, and he is amazing. He started out making Vocaloid music under the name Hachi, in which he programmed all of the instruments and vocals. Now he mostly does music with his own vocals, and he writes and produces all of it. He also used to do all the illustrations for his music videos, and he does the cover art for his albums! I’m always swept away by his creativity and the poetry in his lyrics.
And you know how big a nerd I am about words, so here’s my English translation of my favorite song from his latest album. The song is called ひまわり Himawari (Sunflower).
This is a bit long, so I’ll put a “Read More” thing here. If you open the whole post, you’ll see my translation, and also a breakdown of my favorite kanji and words he uses. Hope you enjoy!
I hope that everyone studying Japanese can take a look at these lyrics, my notes on them, and see that even just listening actively to music can be a good way to study. 💗
ひまわり Himawari Sunflower
悲しくって 蹴飛ばした 地面を強く Kanashikutte kettobashita jimen wo tsuyoku Sorrowful, the ground I had sprung away from 跳ねっ返る 光に指を立てて Hanekkaeru hikari ni yubi wo tatete pulled me back strongly.

A Quick Note on Translating Lyrics
I’ve got to say that it’s really hard to translate song lyrics haha. Sometimes the word order is so different between Japanese and English that I have to swap the lyrics. 
遠く遠く見据えていた 凍て星の先まで tooku tooku misuete ita ite hoshi no saki made Shine the light of your bruised heart 痣だらけの心 輝かせて aza darake no kokoro kagayakasete all the way past that frozen star far, far in the distance
The Japanese is actually in reverse order of the English here. Technically, a very direct translation would be “All the way past that frozen star far, far in the distance, shine the light of your bruised heart.” 
Interesting Words
舌を打って shita wo utte click your tongue
In Japanese culture, doing that “tch!” sound by clicking your tongue is rude. It shows that you are impatient, irritated, or frustrated. Many English speakers click their tongue when they’ve been asked a question and need to think about it. If you are a tongue clicker and you go to Japan, try to curb the habit!
The full lyrics here are: “Click your tongue, defy the wind of this wasteland.”
So this really expresses the pent-up frustration and anger in this person.
嗄れた shagareta, kareta hoarse
What I love about this word is the kanji and its radicals. We have 口 (mouth) and 夏 (summer) put into one kanji. Can you imagine what it would be like if all the heat and dryness of summer was in your mouth and throat, and how hoarse and miserable you would feel? What a cool kanji! (Note: this is a very low frequency kanji.)
切っ先 kissaki point (of a sword, etc.)​; pointed verbal attack
I had a hard time translating this line for a lot of reasons, but in particular I wasn’t sure whether this kissaki was a sword or a verbal attack. I can only assume that because this song talks about crying out and singing so much that it must be the verbal meaning, but Yonezu uses many metaphors so I could also see it being blades. 
人いきれ hito ikire body heat from several people in close quarters; stuffy air
This was a new word for me. Again, I found myself unsure of which meaning to use when I translated it. I went for the “stuffy air” meaning in the end because it was more succinct, but I imagine that Yonezu was probably imagining the former meaning, because he mentions streets and cities, which I imagine to be crowded. He’s also asking a person he’s lost to call out, and perhaps they are lost in a metaphorical sea of people. Then again, summer imagery is strong in this song as well. His word choice is just so GOOD. I wish he’d marry me. 
散弾銃をぶち抜け 明日へ sandanjuu wo buchinuke ashita he fire the shotgun into tomorrow
This evokes much more beautiful imagery in Japanese. The kanji for “shotgun” are 散弾銃 (sandanjuu). 散 means “to scatter” or “to spread,” like fallen cherry blossom petals scatter in a gust of wind. So rather than evoking the image of someone pulling a trigger, it evokes the image of the pellets scattering into the air like fireworks or petals almost. 
北極星へ舵取れ その手で Hokkyokusei he kaji tore sono te de Take the oar to the North Star into your own hands
Ahhhh this is just so freaking pretty. “Take the oar to to the North Star into your own hands.” In other words, determine your own fate, take charge of your life. I just love the “oar” here.
吹き荒び fukisusabi to blow fiercely; to rage, to play (a flute, etc.) for fun
Again, I wasn’t sure how to interpret this line because of the multiple meanings woven into this word. Japanese is SO. COOL. you guys.
哀歌 aika lament (song); elegy; dirge; sad song
My man Yonezu out here bein tricky. Though the official lyrics use the kanji 哀歌, he actually sings this as エレジー (elegy). And that rhymes with the last word of the previous line, エレキ (ereki). Typically, Japanese songwriters tend not to think too much about rhyming. In fact, in Japanese in general, rhyming isn’t thought of as frequently as it is in English. So the fact that Yonezu used this interesting play on words with 哀歌 was pretty cool to me.
震えるほど全て 消えないぜ furueru hodo subete kienai ze It won’t go away, to the point that I’m trembling
I just didn’t have a way to translate the feelings in the ぜ here. “Ze” is a sentence-ending particle that usually shows a person’s confidence. So for him to use it here as he describes himself trembling, is like he’s putting on a front of confidence when really he’s deeply troubled. 
佗び戯れ wabizare ???????
This was my favorite word in the song, and also the hardest one to translate! It doesn’t appear to be a real word in the dictionary, but it’s an imperative made of two different words: 侘び and 戯れ.
Have you ever heard of the term “wabi” or “wabisabi?” It’s this concept of Japanese culture and aesthetics that focuses on the beauty of impermanence and solitude, and an appreciation for the sorrow that comes with the transience.
To look up the definition of “wabi,” it means “taste for the simple and quiet; rustic simplicity; austere refinement; wabi​,” or “enjoyment of a quiet life.”
But to look up the kanji of wabi (侘), we learn that it means “proud, lonely.”
So this is a very nuanced word! I think that the “wabi” of our word “wabizare” is meant to conjure the meaning of the kanji wabi, “proud, lonely.”
Now, 戯. Zare means “pleasantry; joke; tomfoolery​.” There is also a word 戯言 zaregoto, which means “nonsense” or “wishful thinking bordering on nonsense.” I imagine that when Yonezu created this word  佗び戯れ wabizare, he wanted to combine the “proud and lonely” with “wishful thinking bordering on nonsense.” 
鳴き声 かんかん照りの街路で 佗び戯れ nakigoe kankan teri no kairou de wabizare A cry on a sweltering city street, raise a lonely clamor
In other words, he’s asking this person to call out to him, but he knows that they are far away, too far for him to hear. He wants them to give out a cry, one that will sound as lonely as it does nonsensical because there is no way it will reach him.
Uh... What Does This Song Actually Mean?
Disclaimer: This is entirely my own opinion and it could be totally wrong! I always believe that everyone can interpret any piece of art how they like.
The tricky thing about Japanese is that you can omit subjects, and Yonezu does that a lot. So unless there’s an imperative or a use of pronouns, I’m not sure which line is about whom. 
But basically, I think that there was this beautiful person that the singer came to know, someone that they loved and admired. But that person fell into a very dark, hopeless situation. They are “a sunflower blooming in the shade, waiting for summer,” and the singer wants that person to reach out to him. “If you can hear me, scream my name one more time. A cry on a sweltering city street, raise a lonely clamor.” 
The chorus is all imperatives, telling the person to leap into tomorrow, to get it all out, to take the oars into their own hands and head for the North Star. 
I think that this song is all about the singer wanting to help a person they care deeply for, and imploring that person to take action rather than suffer passively.
The End!
I hope that you guys liked this post and that maybe you learned some new words and even found a new artist you love! 
Would people like to see more lyrics translations? They’re kinda fun!

Yukino breathed in the warm summer air as she walked to the beach, then let out a contented sigh. For some reason people tended to think that she would like Winter more due to her ice-based Quirk. Maybe some people with cold Quirks worked like that, but hers was specifically heat absorption. That, plus her residual draconic mutations from her grandfather, made her prefer warm temperatures a lot more than cold. So on a hot summer day like this, she was feeling pretty great even though her swimsuit was exposing a lot more of her skin than she normally liked doing.
"It's funny," she said to the two she was walking with, "I don't really like swimming much, but I love the beach." The sun, the sand, and to be perfectly honest...
"I prefer not to swim as well," Akai-chan told her, still looking ahead and holding the cooler she was carrying for Yukino. She looked really pretty in her sundress. Yukino had been hoping to see her in a swimsuit, but she got why she wouldn't be wearing one if she didn't plan to swim.
"We're going to the beach, this is great!" Neki-chan cheered. He was carrying the other cooler. "And you're making ice cream later!"
"Yup," Yukino grinned, though she was trying to keep away from Neki-chan a bit. Even if he was wearing his Quirk-erasing bracelet, Yukino was wary of her body's only way to cool itself suddenly shutting down on a hot summer day. That'd sour her fun real fast... For her part, Yukino was only carrying the bowls, napkins, and a long tablecloth. To be fair, she was also bringing the means of how the ice cream would be made. Sure, it was literally her body, but she was still the one who would be making the ice cream. "Got stuff to make chocolate and vanilla, plus a bunch of toppings."
"Ohh, that sounds delicious," Neki-chan drooled.
"Thanks, I try my best." In addition to her ice cream supplies, Yukino was also carrying a beach towel for herself. She probably wasn't going to go into the water, yes, but she didn't want to sit down directly on the sand. It was warm, which was nice, but Yukino could do without getting sand in her swimsuit...
They crested the hill they were walking up, giving them a good view of the beach.
"Ohhh, that looks beautiful," Neki-chan said.
"Yeah, it is," Yukino agreed. Even though she didn't swim, she could absolutely appreciate the beauty of the sun glittering off the waves. "Right, let me find somewhere to put my stuff. I'll probably need some help bringing the stuff back, but don't worry about helping me keep track of the stuff while we're here."
"Sounds good," Akai-chan said. "Let's find you a spot."
x x x
"Ahhhh~" Yukino sighed, basking in the sun. Her tail wagged a little, then she decided to check on her coolers. She opened one up a crack, sticking a claw in. It felt good, but just to be safe she drained some of the heat from the air in it and refroze the cold water in the ice bag. She did the same for the other cooler, then grimaced and shook out her hands. She hadn't used her Quirk much, but it was always unpleasant when she used it to cool something that was already a little chilly. Yukino rubbed her hands on her tail, which was really warm from the sun because it was covered in black scales.
Once she warmed her hands up, Yukino decided to play around a bit. She put a hand on the sand, careful not to get any under her claws, and activated Cryomancy. The sand frosted over, though Yukino prevented it from freezing together. She lifted up all the sand that she'd frozen in a large clump. Yukino thought for a bit, then formed the sand into a square of walls with little towers in the corner. Then she started with the detail work. She made a largeish (semifunctional) drawbridge on the side facing her, then carved little lines in the walls in the walls to make it look like bricks. She didn't do any details for the drawbridge, though, because she unfortunately wasn't good enough to make wood grain in a little sand drawbridge. It was starting to warm up a bit, so Yukino lightly touched the top of the wall and cooled it back down. Then she froze a bit more sand, using it to make crenellations for the walls and towers. She hummed, thinking of what else she could add to the castle.
"Heads up!" a voice yelled. Yukino snapped her head up just in time to see a beach ball hurtling at her. She quickly caught it with a single hand. A single... clawed hand...
Crud.
Phweee...
Yukino grimaced as the ball started to deflate from the holes she'd accidentally punctured in it with her claws.
"You okay?" Tori-chan asked, walking up to her. It sounded like they were the one who warned her about the ball. Yuu-chan was trailing behind them. "I hit the ball kinda... far... sorry..." They trailed off toward the end, noticing the deflated ball.
Yukino sheepishly removed the ball from her claws, carefully trying to keep it from getting damaged further. "Sorry about that. Claws..." She held the now totally flat ball out to Tori-chan.
They nodded sadly, taking the ball and brandishing their claws with their other hand. "I get how it is..." They sighed, then shook their head a little and smiled. "It's good, it's good. We should've been more careful with the ball."
Yukino nodded. "Still, if you want I can get you a new one later to replace it."
"Oh, no, don't feel the need to do that!" They smiled. "Thanks, but I'll deal with it. Again, sorry for almost hitting you!" They walked off.
"Yeah, sorry about that," Yuu-chan said.
"It's cool, Yuu-chan," Yukino waved him off.
"Are you building a sand castle?" he asked, pointing to her castle.
"Yeah," she said, then noticed it was starting to get close to "melting" again. She quickly refroze the castle. "Using my Quirk to do it. It's practice as well as fun."
"I could give the towers some sprouts, if you want," he said. "They're not flags, but they might make it look nicer?"
Yukino gave him a smile. "That sounds great, but unfortunately I don't know if they'd do well in the cold sand..."
He shook his head slightly. "I can make them cold resistant. Though... they might die soon if I don't sustain them."
Yukino shrugged. "Don't worry about sustaining them. I could try to ice them over once they start wilting. Probably be good practice for something. Thanks, by the way."
He was wearing his box so she couldn't see his mouth, but Yukino had the feeling he was smiling as he put the sprouts on the towers. "Bye," he muttered, then walked off.
Yukino played with the castle for a bit more.
x x x
Yukino hopped up. "Alrighty!" she said with a clap. Some time had passed, and while the sun was still in the sky she felt that she should get started on her ice cream before it got any later. She noticed that some of her classmates, as well as one or two of the teachers, were looking at her now. "I'm gonna be making ice cream soon!" she announced to the people who were looking at her. "Can one of you make sure everyone knows?"
"I'm on it!" Lacca-sensei shouted, giving her a thumbs-up. "Just save me a bowl of rocky road!"
"I literally don't have that but okay," Yukino muttered as her teacher ran off. She shrugged and poked the tablecloth with a foot, using Cryomancy to float it to her hand. She held one end and tossed the other to the side, using her telekinesis to unfurl it. As she did that, she made a table of ice form underneath where it would fall to, making it super thick so it wouldn't melt easily. The tablecloth fell on the ice table a little askew, but Yukino quickly fixed it with telekinesis. She floated the coolers, bowls, spoons, and napkins onto the table next.
Yukino hummed, pulling out the tubs of chocolate- and vanilla-flavored cream in the first cooler that she'd prepared for today with a bit of effort. She'd tried to make sure there was enough for everyone to have at least some of each. She smiled, then pulled out two ice cream scoops in a plastic bag. Yukino pulled out the first one, then uncovered the chocolate cream and dipped it in. She put her other hand over the cream and activated her Quirk. She stirred the cream with both the scoop and the air above it, chilling both. After a few seconds, the cream froze into chocolate ice cream. "Good," she said as she tested the ice cream with the scoop. It wasn't too thick, but not too thin, either. She repeated that with the other scoop and the vanilla cream.
Once both the tubs were done, she rubbed her hands on her tail to warm them up, then put the first cooler under the table and opened up the second one. Honestly she probably didn't have to bring toppings as well, but she wanted to. Plus she could snack on the leftovers later. She pulled out the chocolate syrup, strawberry syrup, caramel, whipped cream, and jar of cherries first. Then she took out a couple of the bowls and plastic spoons. She had big bags of chocolate chips (dark, milk, and white), peanut butter chips, peanuts, crushed Oreos, bits of edible cookie dough, and sprinkles in the second cooler as well, of which she poured some of each into the bowls. Then she brought out a label for the peanut products, which she'd made sure to keep away from everything else, for Wolfie-sensei because of his allergies.
"There," she said, then cooled the table down a bit just in case. "Done." She looked up to see that most of the class had formed a line in front of the ice cream. Lacca-sensei was, of course, in the front. "Hey, you don't mind if I get first dibs, do you?" Yukino asked the line. "I did just make it."
"Oh, go ahead!" Lacca-sensei nodded vigorously.
Nobody really objected to that, so Yukino shrugged and took a bowl and a plastic spoon. She took a scoop out of each tub of ice cream with her telekinesis, then put some chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, cookie dough, sprinkles, chocolate syrup, caramel, and whipped cream on it. And finally, a cherry on top. She noticed that the people still in line were staring at her ice cream, though Lacca-sensei, Neki-chan, and Boron had started getting their ice cream behind her. "Alright," she said. "I'm probably gonna stay close to the ice cream table so I can keep it and the ice cream from melting. Call me if you need anything. And I know it goes without saying, but please don't litter. There's a trash bag in one of the coolers, the first person to have to throw out their trash can take that out. Bye."
Yukino walked away, eating a spoonful of ice cream as she did so. She was about to sit down on her beach towel again, but then she saw that Akai-chan was sitting nearby. Yukino set up the table a little too close to her beach towel, actually, so she figured she'd go sit down with her.
"You okay if I sit here?" Yukino asked Akai-chan with a grin.
"Ah, Takeda-kun," she said. "I don't mind."
Yukino sat down on Akai-chan's lap, taking another spoonful of her ice cream.
"I... should've guessed you'd do that..." Akai-chan muttered, her face starting to flush slightly.
"Don't worry," Yukino assured her. "I'll get up if you need me to."
"That's... that's fine," she muttered. "I hope you don't mind that I didn't get any ice cream. I have some residual snake mutations that make cold foods uncomfortable for me."
Yukino shrugged, then tickled Akai-chan's back with her tail. She smiled at the cute noise Akai-chan made. "I get how residual mutations are. The cold can be kinda bad for me, too, though luckily it's not quite bad enough that I can't have ice cream on a warm day if I want to." Yukino took another scoop of her ice cream. "Plus you're not the only one." She pointed at Mulan-sensei. "Think she's just eating crushed Oreos from a bowl."
"You can tell?" Akai-chan asked.
Yukino nodded. "I can feel anything that I've frozen, there's no ice cream in that bowl."
"That's interesting."
"Speaking of, I'm probably gonna go refresh the table and ice cream soon. Wanna keep 'em cool so they don't melt."
Akai-chan nodded. "That makes sense. It is rather warm today."
"Yeah," Yukino said, licking her lips to get a bit of chocolate off. "I like the heat, so it's nice." Yukino got up, stretching a bit. "Anyways, I'm gonna go cool off." She gave Akai-chan a quick peck on the cheek before walking off. Again, she smiled at the adorable squeak that Akai-chan made. She kept her smile as she walked over to the table and tapped it with her Quirk cooling it back down and reinforcing it. She shook out her hand, then walked over to the tubs of ice cream. "Hey, mind if I cool the ice cream off real quick?" Yukino asked Yuu-chan and Wolfie-sensei, who were about to serve themselves some ice cream. "Gotta make sure it stays cool."
Wolfie-sensei nodded. "Go right ahead, I don't mind."
"Yeah," Yuu-chan said. "Thank you."
Yukino gave them a grin, then grabbed the handles of the scoops and used them to chill the ice cream again. "The handles might be a little cold now," she warned, "sorry."
"That's fine," Yuu-chan said, then took some ice cream. "Thanks for the ice cream, by the way!"
"You're welcome," Yukino responded. "I'm gonna go now." She walked back to Akai-chan, chuckling to herself over the fact that she was still blushing over the kiss.
x x x
Yukino hummed to herself as they walked back to the dorms, carrying her beach towel, the trash bag, and the leftover bowls and stuff. "Today was nice," she said.
"Yeah," Neki-chan agreed, carrying one of the coolers again. "And thanks for the ice cream! It was so good!"
Yukino nodded. "You're welcome. That was nice, though I think if I do it again I might wanna prepare something for people who don't like or can't have cold treats." As she said that, she winked at Akai-chan.
Akai-chan raised her eyebrow at the wink but said, "That... does sound nice, yes. I can't wait to see what you make, Takeda-kun."
Yukino smiled at her. "Thanks, Akai-chan. I won't disappoint you!"

Me talking about the tv show because I just finished my rewatch & I’m absolutely obsessed yet again
Aka a viewing guide
Spoiler warning
Sorry this is so long omg- I probably forgot so much too
Pilot:
Honestly the only true plot that interested me was Tim Shepard & Tim Shepard only. Steve’s care was pretty cool. Some dope Stevepop moments. Nice tarry content. Just nice Darry content over all. Dallas’s scene in the beginning keeps sending me thoughjskakfk
Ep 1:
Honestly I hate hate hate what they did to Sodapop’s character I absolutely hate it. They did him so freaking dirty. But we love pro choice Steve & Two Bit was also pretty scrumptious in this episode as well. I dislike this episode. It’s a no for me.
Ep 2:
This one is smack full of delicious tarry content for everyone to gobble on. Darry is absolutely scrumptious and I love the whole dynamic between him and Tim. I, again, hate soda in this episode. I hate him so much it’s unreal. Why is he like that. But I do love the way they did Buck so oh well. Kinda sad about the lack of Stevie.
Ep 3:
Definitely my favorite episode because iykyk. Steve is just absolutely scrumptious omg they really did a musical episode huh. And that song was really a banger huh. And he really had to look that good? Also Two but was absolutely scrumptious. The whole greaser band was a damn treat I wish we got more off. I will not be addressing the Ponyboy situation because no. Disgusting. Absolutely vile & perverted. No thank you & never again. But omg I cannot describe to you how amazing the band is guys ugh I cannot I cannot they are so cute & I want more content pronto. Also the bonding between Darry & Buck was kinda cute too. Like dar has a bit of a father figure again, it’s sweet.
Ep 4:
Pony is a damn flipping idiot. Wtf is he thinking. Like. Why. Why would he ever do that in a million years. Steve though, was looking fine again. And rip Soda even though he doesn’t die. I think Pony & Soda both nearly dying in this episode is so funny. Also kinda ooc of Darry? Like? Hospital bills are a deal ton and he is just gonna roll it off? Steve was more like Darry than Darry. Probably cause his boyfriends was dyi-
Ep 5:
We will not be addressing Tim & Cherry. Never. But omg. The tarry again guys the tarry omg I died. They’re so domestic & for what?? Also why is Pony such a moody little crap. I hate him in this because he cannot make up his little hormonal mind for a second. Also why can’t they put pants on? The lack of Two & Steve was very sad but ig the tarry vibes can make up for it. Idk what the brothers were on though agreeing to all that-
Ep 6:
A very close second favorite omg. I love the exploration of both Two and Pony’s friendship & the friendship between Steve and Darry. The scene was short but I really loved the dialogue between Steve & Darry. I think this was the one episode they tried (poorly) to give Steve the spot light & ehh. I love him & I loved hearing more about his dad & his relationship with his dad but there should’ve been more idc. I think the whole fact they all idolize old dead white men is a tad weird. But two’s speech on Elvis was the highlight of the episode by far omg. I just think Steve & Darry were idiots for continuing to work but it produced good content ig. Poor Darry though rip almost lol. I loved the Steve plot line of it all even if it was smaller than hoped for.
Ep 7:
Forking hate this episode. It adds absolutely nothing to the plot besides defiling Soda’s character even further. I think it was a poor poor attempted at ‘omg let’s all get along lol’ but came off incredibly racist & umm. It was an uncomfortable watch that is for sure. Honestly I plan on skipping this episode on my next rewatch it really isn’t worth the time imo. It’s just. Weird. 
Ep 8:
Every time I think about this episode I think it could be my favorite hdjskkd but idk. I absolutely freaking adorable the tarry & how they both protect each other. Please they are literally on a date. Soda is an absolute idiot but we know that. Steve was by far superior in this episode & he was a fine specimen too omg they Hawaiian shirt did wonders. Also Stevebit??? Omg please the way they blatantly flirted was so freaking fruity. Darry being a hero & saying the day in an epic way because again, Soda is a complete moron. Idk. Jewel was kinda vibey but Pony was good as well in this episode. Omg this is long but Tim & his parole officer sent me to the moon omg I see why Darry was crushing so hard.
Ep 9:
Ahhhh the two bit centric episode we all needed! I liked seeing how the stayed pretty close & true to his character, besides the drinking. It was fun & nice to learn more about him & his family aside from him just being a wise crack & I think both Pony & Steve saw that. That’s why they both helped him out. & I especially love the way the whole gang stood up for him in the end omg Tim Shepard was scrumptious but isn’t he always. I just love seeing more of two bit & his life & friendships outside the gang. However the scene with Sodapop was absolutely hilarious in an odd way- weirdo boyfriends. Also. Tim borrowing Darry’s suit is by far so tarry & I love them. Tim’s character exploration was also scrumptious in this episode.
Ep 10:
OK BUT- ok but this one also might be my favorite JSKSKKS I’m just gonna keep saying it. Two & Steve are absolutely complete asshole boyfriends. Especially Steve. The energy between two & Steve & soda is absolutely off the charts. Sodapop definitely lost his mind a little bit & I still don’t understand how Buck rationalized his decisions. Pony was just having the time of his life it was so funny. I feel bad for Darry omg it was his birthday & he was stuck being the responsible adult for a loaf of dumb ass kids. But honestly. Soda. You idiot. I know I should feel bad for you. But that sucked. How could you believe that. Buck too. Steve & Two are such fruity cuties though riding around, pranking, smooching, scheming together. Also, steve can draw & is musical? Ok king am I you or are you more attractive that I thought awooga woo 
Ep 11:
Haven’t rewatched it yet, will update with I do. Kinda homophobic that it’s missing the first part.
Ep 12:
Also will update when I rewatch

holy shit your writing is so good dude, I love it!! ok so this request is kinda dumb but could you please do the main six with a male mc who's tall (like 6'4") and has a super nice body?
Thanks for requesting! I try to keep my headcanons as gender neutral as possible (that way any one can enjoy it) so hopefully this is okay, and I hope you like it,
Main six with a tall and fine Mc
Asra
He’s into it. Yes he’s is soooooo into it. Asra will love you no matter what, let me just make that clear. No matter what you look like, sound like, smell like, etc etc etc, asra will still love you (the only exceptions are if your a bitch, or your in love with some one else) so this is just like the cherry on top.
He loves the fact that your taller than him (for reference asra is 5’8) it makes it so much easier for him to crawl in your lap to cuddle, and he loves being the little spoon (he’ll still be the big spoon too, as long as he gets to hold you quite frankly he doesn’t care) plus just a fun fact, both Julian and Muriel are taller than asra, and it’s canon that Julian and asra did the do, and Muriel and asra used to cuddle, so maybe it’s just me but he might have a type
He doesn’t care what you look like he really doesn’t. You can be the sexiest bitch on the planet and he will still not give a shit. Asra doesn’t even care about what he looks like or dresses like I should say, so he doesn’t care about how you look or dress, as long as your healthy and comfortable.
Nadia
I feel like Nadia could care less about the height of her partner, let alone their looks, (granted I don’t think any of the main six really care, they fell in love with your personality not your body) but it is refreshing for her to be dating some one taller than her.
Something in me says that she’s into people who are shorter than her, just my gut intuition, but then again lucio is only a centimeter smaller than her, and her and Julian kind of (?) get together in asras ending, so I don’t think she has a preference
She also doesn’t care how fine you are. She’s more worried about how you’re taking care of your body, and will constantly check up on you just to be sure. And if you have any tips, she’s more than ready to listen. She has her notepad out and everything.
Julian
Do I even need to say anything? You’re practically twins- no matter how diffrent you look. You’re both the same height, and you both have fine ass bodies, if anything it kind of makes the relationship seem- easier
You’re both the same height so there’s no need to worry about putting something on the top shelf where the other one can’t reach, and it’s easier to alternate between big and small spoon. Also if you wanted to you could share each other’s clothes without a problem.
There have been more than a couple occasions where people at the raven asked if you were together and when you said yes, asked some more...uh....risqué questions like if the both of you were interested in a threesome Julian doesn’t care what you look like, and he doesn’t care that other people look at you....they just better keep their hands to themselves
Portia
Your body types are totally diffrent, which is so cute, and such a neat dynamic. Portia is short (5’1) and has a pear shape body, and your tall and you have more of a sculpted(?) body I would presume (I can picture it perfectly in my head I know what you mean I just don’t know how to describe it ahhhh sorry)
She’ll flirt and tease you by saying stuff like “how’s the weather up there.” Or by telling you to make sure you duck everytime you enter a store or her cottage. You can get back at her though by putting things on the top shelf. And hiding her step stool. She’ll climb up on the counters I promise
She doesn’t care about how her body looks and she doesn’t care about how yours looks either, as long as your healthy. But she does like it when people look at you a little too long, because when they do that she can just pull you down for a kiss to show them who your with.
Muriel
You’d have the be a tree to be taller than him. But he doesn’t mind, frankly he likes that your almost the same height (he’s 6’10) it’s not only reassuring. When you stand next to him, he still looks big, but not as big as if Portia or asra were to stand next to him. It’s nice.
You being tall makes him feel more comfortable and confident with him being tall as well (that is if your confident about it) seeing you go on about your day, you’re height not slowing you down is really (as corny as it sounds) inspiring to him, and he starts to try to not think about it as well.
I’ve said this every time but he doesn’t care how fine you are. As long as you’re healthy, and you’re eating three meals a day, and drinking enough water that’s all he cares about. He does recognize that you’re fine though, and he does often wonder how he got so lucky with you.
Lucio
Well it’s only fitting for a self proclaimed “fine ass count” to be dating a fine ass person. He wouldn’t care no matter how ugly you were, he would still be with you. But uhhhhhhhh he’s kind of digging the whole, sexiest couple alive status. (According to him of course)
Look. Lucio is 5’10 with the stilettos. Pray. For. His. Feet. No amount of magic, ice, anytype of healing will be able to fix them. They’re long gone. Please take a minute to explain to your jumbo boyfriend that it’s okay that he’s shorter than you. That he’s still very fine and sexy. He feels better but still wears heels.
He loves it when people ask you out, or flirt with you, because next thing you know here comes lucio swooping In giving you a long and deep kiss, grabbing you in places he probably shouldn’t be grabbing in public, just to be spiteful and rub it in. But if you’re uncomfortable with that he’ll tone it down just a tad.
Ahhhh I’m really tired so I can’t tell how good that is so I hope it’s half decent, and if you want to read something a tad better you can find my master list here.
Next headcanon: main six with a clumsy Mc
Request are closed

Waittt can I just say how happy I am about our friendship! It has blossomed so much. Remember when we were talking about skating at the start ?!
I’m sorry about your shoulder, hip and knee problems. I totally understand! I have hip and ankle problems😓 . The life of athletes.
Hahaha stripper girl! My thoughts too lol . School is annoying but I gotta keep up hehe.
Haha Jamie is happy I’m not drowning him anymore, but you know what it’s a fitness challenge for him heheh! . I honestly don’t really believe that you would go easy lol , I feel like once you get into that competitive zone you are unstoppable!. You guys are dominate- imma go create t shirts !!
I’m not gonna lie, I can kinda see either me or Ryan falling off the jet ski hehe. We’re a chaotic duo. Our director also agrees w our partnership. I’m thinking a 2 person jet ski for you and Dylan. Ahhhh him holding you 🥺🥺 and putting his chin on your shoulder omg.
Go ponytail twins!! Are u good at doing ur hair? Cuz I can help you !! Haha me too! Shorts are more of my go to. Haha I had to skate away so that she wouldn’t see me losing it hehe. Also lol! That’s pretty funny. I can barely scare my parents.
Is it weird that I can totally see you laughing at us?! Me, Dylan and quinner would probably swear the most hehe.
Yess you and dylan🥺🥺 the photo would be great! Both of you smiling and me and the boys looking like shit lol. I’m not sure who matches me more. Who do see hugging me ?
Yess please send me a regional hoodie😍😍 kk I’ll go get you one ;) or do you want a red wings one? I think that’s the team you like ?
Honestly I just like being comfy at school so i get you . I like to dress up more during the weekend. Do u have any cool necklaces?
Haha yesss me and Ryan would probably start like picking each other up lol. Or just doing super crazy moves. Yess ofc I’ll teach quinner to dance. Gotta get him *tipsy* first tho. Yass you with Jamie, I can see you do more of an upbeat dance and then a slow one w Dylan 🥺 awwww I see that !! Just admiring each other 😍
Yaaa my guy best friend lives like 20 mins away from me if I walk lol. I get it soon wbu ? . Black cherry is great 🤌 have you ever had champagne?
Okkk another cute vacay idea I have is all of us sitting around a bonfire w blankets and a bunch of food! Since Dylan knows how to play the guitar everybody can sing- other than me since I have a terrible voice lol. Aww the cuddling that would go on!! Or some of the boys just falling asleep on you! I see u and dyl. He can serenade you hehe.
ok yesss i love our friendship sm! i always look forward to responding to your asks 💖 haha yes at the very beginning we were mostly only talking about skating. i’m pretty sure the first thing you sent was after i did really bad on a test and said to send in soft thoughts
oof yeah knee and hip problems are tough. my mom just recently found out about my joint problems, which i thought she knew about but ig not, and now she’s vv concerned for me lol
ok so i’m pretty sure i’ve already shared this story, but one time i accidentally said i was gonna drop out to become a stripper in front of my gym teacher at my very catholic school and she just goes “you’d probably make more money than me” 💀 but yeah you just gotta keep up with school ig
hehe yes you gotta keep jamie in shape for hockey season. also that is vv true i do get competitive once i get into it so i probably wouldn’t go easy on you sorry lol. aww t-shirts for us tyyy 🥰
haha yes i could see one of you falling off the jet ski. tbh i probably would too bc i can be kinda clumsy sometimes. falling in gang lol. omg him with his chin on my shoulder 🥺🥺 that’s some soft shit and i’m here for it
i’m good at most hair, but i would definitely need your help bc i can not get a ponytail without bumps lol. but also imagine one of the guys sees one of us putting braids in our hair and decides he wants to try and then they all decide to have a competition to see who can do it best (inspired by events that have actually occurred to me). haha yes i would do the same just skate away. and i was dying when i scared my dad bc i can never scare him and i wasn’t even trying to lol
omg yes, sorry but i would be laughing at all of you. hehe we would probably all be smiling but still look like shit in the picture but that’s ok. and i could probably see jamie hugging you more, idk he just seems like a bit more of a cuddly person than quinner
hehe let me find a regional hoodie i can part with. ooh a red wings hoodie. yes i love them even tho they’re awful rn. oh you’re lucky you can be comfy at school i have to wear a uniform, and then i usually have a lot of swim practice/meets on weekends so i’m just in hoodies all the time lol. the only necklace i really wear is my saint brigid’s cross, but i probably have others somewhere
omgggg i can picture it you and ryan together would be so funny but so cute. yes we would definitely have to get quinner tipsy and loosen him up lol. then you could get him to dance. yes just vibing with jamie during one of the songs and doing a slow song with dyl 😍
oooh that’s fun that he lives close. i turn 16 on memorial day, so i have to wait til the next weekend to get my license bc the dmv will be closed. no i haven’t had champagne bc my parents don’t like it and my friends and i have just never gotten any
omg yes i love bonfires and food, so perfect! haha i will join you in the non-singing group bc i also have an awful voice lol. and then the cuddling that would happen in the dark when they think none of the other guys can see them cuddling us 🥺 or if they fall asleep on us 🥺🥺 omg getting serenaded would be so cute

Ahhhh that was SO GOOD! I loved it! It was bittersweet and sentimental, and I loved that. I also loved seeing how Pony had matured since the book’s events. Any other wips I can look forward to? I love your writing.- Cherry
Thank you so much!!!! 🖤 One thing I never want to do in my writing is make Pony (or anyone in the gang) *too* perfect. They all have their little flaws, and I think Ponyboy’s downfall is how narrow minded and oblivious he can be. I definitely wanted to incorporate that here. Although, I agree, he has definitely grown and matured at this point and is a little more rational than he was in the book! And I love that Sodapop could be the person to bring him back down to earth and make him realize how fortunate he is for his support system, without being judgmental or dismissive of his feelings.
I’m currently working on two different requests. The one about Ponyboy moving out of college and finding various momentos that lead him back to the events of the original text and I also plan to play around with a request I got about Dally being a Soc, but want to make it unique and fun with my own little twist on it :) I am trying to get them both finished by this weekend!

QueennNnn!! Your art isn't awful! Its friggin beautiful and you can't change my mind!!💖💖💖💖💖 Also, while I'm sending an ask, can I have some more information about your adorable babies👀👀 (I wanna make more drawings for them uwu💕)
Ahhhh alrighty alrighty, I’m not gonna argue with you sweetie hehe😂💖! I’m just,,, super happy that you all like my art so much huhuhu, and thank you for always being such a dear to me💖💖💖!!!
AahhaAAAAh, about the babies—-🙈🌠💖! I’d be absolutely honored and delighted to tell you more about them!!! I don’t know if I should put this under a cut or not though because…. phew…. it’s gonna be a bit long xD (and I also don’t have any good drawings left of them and unfortunately need to use some terrible old sketches because??? I don’t draw our children often enough??? Pffff that still needs to change💕)
here’s a warning for me being indulgent and swooning over my Crachelle babies up ahead xD!
——–
Trifle
Tumblr media
She’s a true Daddy’s girl through and through xD Her hair color is actually a very light pink but with slightly purple undertones, basically a mix of Angel’s and Big Mom’s hair- aaaand she got my bright, blue eyes😂 Trifle is a very open-hearted and kind girl, although she tends to be a bit too dreamy sometimes! Her father is her ultimate hero and she wants to be just like him while growing up. Many of her clothes are actually mirroring that as well, and she even started to put a special kind of fire-crackers into her hair to further showcase her close bound with Papa Cracker lol. Unfortunately though… she never really knows what she actually wants and is more than once lost in her own little fantasies, which can occasionally come to bite her. Flambe is Trifle’s favorite aunt and often helps her when she’s dealing with yet another girl crush again huhu xDD
Fun fact: when she was little she used to plant ‘magic seeds’ (rocks) in our garden, hoping that they would grow to give her a little sister someday. (yes, Cracker and I really regret watching Thumbelina with her)
Pretzel
Tumblr media
Although Trifle tries to imitate her Papa as good as possible, it’s actually Pretzel who is stuck with resembling Cracker the most- but only appearance-wise! As you can probably tell, he’s the spitting image of his dad… minus the lack of eyebrows and some other little details haha xD Pretzel is a bit of a shy boy who tends to overthink certain things and often has some difficulties with making new friends- but once someone spends a bit of time with him, he truly thaws up to be one of the coolest people around! His relationship with his father is rather strained, mostly because Cracker has many high expectations for his oldest son, and if he doesn’t live up to them…. well, things can get a bit problematic xd Pretzel also got a hearing problem and communication is a little difficult, but he’s always doing his best to let people know about how he feels! His favorite uncle is Oven, who often helps him with training and getting stronger.
Fun fact: Pretzel actually dislikes his name. A lot. The fact that he was basically named after a sword constantly haunts him, even if he tries not to think about it lol
Eclair/Anne
Tumblr media
Nothing about her ever stays the same for long, since Eclair is a true free spirit! Her natural hair color is a rich brown with some lilac undertones, but it can be rather hard to tell because she loves to change it on an almost monthly basis! Out of all the siblings she’s probably the smartest and most cunning, and always knows just how to get her way xD Eclair often pretends to be naive or even somewhat stupid so people will leave her alone or to avoid certain duties lol, but depending on the situation she might actually show her true colors to help those that are dear to her! She prefers to do things that bring her fun or pleasure rather than strict chores, and one of her favorite hobbies is painting pictures to express herself! She’s the anti-social bee of the family, although her parents often nudge her to be a bit more open and find friends xD Her favorite uncle is Mont-d’Or and she also enjoys spending time with Amande, since they can both understand her more introvert behaviour and love for artistic outlets!
Fun fact: she’s actually a bit short-sighed and supposed to wear glasses, but she never does! And if her parents were to ask her about it, she’ll simply respond and say that she ‘lost’ them again lol
Dodger
Tumblr media
Did you ever ask yourself… ‘what if there was a kid that’s basically just like Cracker, only 100 times worse?’ no? Well too bad, because that is exactly what you’re getting with Dodger! Oh boy, where to start… as far as appearance goes, he’s a pretty solid mix of his parents- his hair is similar to mine (only more wild and spikey) while his eyes and face resemble his father. But his personality is just…. too much to handle for the both of us! Dodger is truly the definition of ‘troublemaker’, as there is not a single day where he doesn’t get caught up in some drama! He’s an unstoppable bundle of energy and keeps his good traits hidden for most of the time, since it’s soooo much more fun to just get on people’s nerves xD To make matters worse, he also has a deep love for stabbing things. Mostly inanimate objects though, but still!!! Best be careful around him! Other than that, he actually dreams of becoming strong and powerful like his Papa, and sometimes sneaks into the Seducing Woods to train his ‘intimidation tactic’ on some unsuspecting homies. (He basically wants to be able to make them wither away in fear, similiar to what Cracker did xD) His favorite aunt is Angel, whom he always plots new pranks with!
Fun Fact: His relationship with his Pa is pretty good, but there was one incident that left Dodger slightly fearful of him…
Last but not least, Cherry!
Tumblr media
Cherry is,,, the currently reigning baby of the family- she’s just,,, hhh,,, so tiny and precious ;^; With her big ruby eyes and bubblegum-pink hair she really looks like a wildcard, but there is at least one physical similarity she shares with her father- the lack of eyebrows xD Cherry loves her parents more than anything (and tbh gets a bit coddled by us too), but that doesn’t mean she won’t get into trouble! She’s an adventurer at heart and likes nothing more than to run into a forest, befriend some random animals, and discover new things! Together with her pet bunny Bun Bun she’s ready to take on any adventure, and of course, be home again by dinnertime! 
Fun fact: when she was still a very smol baby, her older brother Dodger once tried to ship her off to an orphanage because her babbling/crying was too loud lol
in conclusion: I love my babies very much, thank you xD And I definitely need to draw them more often!!! hhhHHh there are a few small comics I’m already working on but psssssttt xD Also I’m really sorry for the bad sketches on this one, I just don’t have enough good pictures aaahh
