you’re not entirely sure how it happened. misted vision prevailed over timeline and verity. however, it is safe to say that if someone had told you upon your initial arrival to the reef, that no less than four months later you’d be sneaking around with the olo'eyktan’s indisputably insufferable son, your incredulity would’ve been comical.
wistfully recalling the first time you’d seen him — hard eyes. firm and arrogant. guard up, unsmiling. stunning. holding tight onto kiri’s hand, your own eyes acknowledged the gradual gathering of the metkayina clan around your family. regardless, your sight was consumingly preoccupied with him. he stared back. the blue of his irises were fervid. at the time, you dismissed it as anger. a reaction to your family’s invasion and unfamiliarity. it was not that. but in the moment, you remained ignorant. a twisting enthral of unknown sentiments travelled through your stomach as you stubbornly kept his intense gaze. butterflies. you clutched your sisters hand tighter.
cerulean water engulfed your waist. an hour had passed since olo'eyktan tonowari and thasìk ronal had granted your family uturu. learning the metkayina’s craft and method seemed to be laced with under tones of compelling urgency. around you stood your siblings, and infront of you, three na’vi. rotxo, a calm and charming boy. tsireya, an unfathomably pure spirit. and him. you tried to listen attentively, but how could you? his stare was vivid. you mustn’t look, but you do. and oh, how the thrill of the sapphire orbs that you’re met with is worth the missed explanations you’re being fed by an eager tsireya. slowly, the side of his mouth curves upwards. not into a smile, but rather a smirk. smug. turning your head defiantly, you keep your focus on his sister. although, you weren’t sure if you were defying his pomposity or the ever present glittering feeling inside your own chest.
days passed, and tension thickened. you were quick to learn the boys’ name. you were quick to learn the boys’ ways. ao’nung had a knack for coming up with a snarky remark in any given situation. ao’nung was fiercely loyal to his friends, and rejected change. ao’nung enjoyed teasing people. ao’nung felt comfortable in positions of dominance. ao’nung was sly, strategic and innovative. yet often acted on impulse. and above all, ao’nung was an exceptionally determined man. once he had centred his desire, not one thing could deter his aim.
in short, ao’nung had chosen you. pridefully, you had rejected his advances. wanting to make him feel just as refused as he had made your family feel. your sister. but this only fuelled his combative love for a challenge. and thus, he began pursuing you. you didn’t deny yourself any conscious apprehension, you were attracted to him. and yes, he did have an effect on you, and yes, there was a blatant connection. but no, you absolutely would not allow yourself to be swooned. yet unfortunately unlike ao’nung, your determination falls flaccid when your riveting heart begins to enchant your spirit with an unexplainable and irrevocable emotion.
ao’nung decorated the next month and a half of your life. he would flirt, rather blatantly. staring, so much staring. he liked when you would look away. putting his broad chest against your back and whispering to you. he knew he made you nervous. but soon, the boyish smirk that remained plastered to his face, changed. it became a smile. a real, true smile. one he reserved only for you. and his eyes, cold and stern, became tender. bright. and only then did your indignant resistance finally cease. only then did you allow yourself to fall. and fall you did. you recall the moment you stopped running, it was a simple moment. all you remember was him, the waves, and his voice. he said your name. just your name. you liked how he said your name. like you, really liked it.
within a week your mind was mush. he invaded every sense, thought and moment. sitting next to him on the peer, legs swinging from the wooden dock as the fish swam below your feet. glowing coral and treasures.
“will you let me take you out, already?” he started.
“and be seen in public with you? no way.” you respond. smile evident in your voice. it wasn’t entirely a joke. after you accepted your desire, the principal reason you had avoided taking ao’nung up on his suggestions and invites (or rather pleas and desperate whining), was because of your family. it was terrifying, not knowing what they would think if they found out you had grown a feverish affection for the same boy who almost got your brother killed. the same boy who tormented your sister. your kiri. the thought of their disapproval and anguished disappointment paralysed you. he knew.
“ma yn” he spoke. a vocation, telling you to look at him. once you did, “we don’t have to tell them, for now. just please. open your heart to me—” he was crying. shit. he was really crying. he pulled you roughly into his chest, his face in your neck “it was a hunt before, i see that. but now, it’s no longer your infernal presence that tortures me. i have taken your soul into mine, and through you i have become a man.” he became quiet. “just please. fuck. please. please.” his lashes were wet against your skin. he was so desperate. aching to give you the love his hands, spirit and mind implored him to encase you in. begging. begging you to let him take care of you. you finally answered him, “we have to take this to the grave.” he only nodded in response, and with an open mouth he wrote his name on your throat. by the end of it, you were shivering.
he walked you to your marui afterwards. both of you in fits of laughter, tears long forgotten. “you’re gonna come see me ride tomorrow. my first tsurak.” he stated. he was staring at the sand. “and why would i do that, ao’nung?” he took his time responding. usually, his pace was rapid. his wit conjuring responses faster than he could process them. “cause you’re my girl.” he finally looked up.
instantly, everything ao’nung had been saying made sense. all that talk about man and woman, torture and growth. it had aligned itself in you like a constellation. you understood now. looking at him, he was grand. vast and big. towering over you. his hands, just as large and calloused as they were amatory. strong arms. thick neck. jaw clenched. deep, vehement voice. it’s like you were suddenly becoming aware of the fact that he was male. powerful. protective. tender. your mouth fell slightly ajar, his muscular arms wrapped despairingly around your waist. you felt it most then. all that man. how much he made you feel like a woman. you let out a shaky breath. only three words in all existence could express your present notion. “i see you.” it was barley audible, yet it was more than enough. and with that, he kissed you.
the deal was simple — tell no one. in public, you were mere acquaintances. yet behind closed doors, you were vigorously infatuated with one an other. he’d stare in a group setting til you were tugging him away when no one was looking. stealing kisses. part of the routine. secret whispered nothings in your ear. date nights, after eclipse. he’d take you swimming, or to the spirit tree. he quickly became your life source. your oxygen. as if you were holding your breath all day and his kisses were the only thing that could finally ease your burning lungs.
“let’s take it to the grave” you’d say
hours spent craving each other. loving words, he’d spill them while you traced patterns on his chest.
“they’ll never find out how bad we behave” he’d assure
on his lap, with his lips on your neck as you told him about your day. breathing in his musk, feeling him mumble into your throat. “i made you something” you manage to make out his muffled words. “you did, ma nung?” you say, giggling already. his grip on your waist tightens. “yeah.” he smiles into your warm skin. one of his hands leave your waist and begin rummaging around in his burlap satchel he had lazily chucked on the sand. you hear clinking before you’re presented with a necklace. a very pretty necklace. “ao’nung” you whisper, one hand flying up to cover your mouth. it’s a shell necklace, traditional metkayina ornamentation. a halitosis rests in the center with smaller trinkets circling the remaining space. he raises his eyebrows, smirking already. “you like it?” you look at him. “it’s perfect. thank you.” “let’s see it on then, turn around.”
later, sitting cross legged in your marui, you face a mindlessly unprecedented challenge. “what’s that?” asks your brother, plopping down next to you. “what are you on about.” you deadpan. “that necklace, where’d you get it?” you look up at neteyam. “huh? what are you guys talking about.” lo’ak chips in. lo’ak, who had been with you all afternoon and had not noticed the necklace, whereas neteyam pointed it out within minutes of being back. typical.
“uh, i made it.” you answer. trying your hardest to sound nonchalant. “that’s nonsense. you can’t bead jewellery for shit.” lo’ak stated. “well i managed didn’t i?” you shoot back. “yn.” neteyam, this time. “you realize you always hide your thumbs when you lie?” he continues. you sharply look down and sure enough, he was right. you were clenching your thumbs tight in your hands. when did you start doing that? indignantly you look back up at an amused neteyam. opening your mouth, only to find yourself speechless.
could you really take this to the grave?

since i’d already played the original trilogy approximately seven million times in french, i finally got round to playing french apollo justice instead. just finished it and hoooo boy was this localisation just as interesting
just like in the og trilogy, the entire thing now takes place in france (presumably paris, though they didn’t specify in this one). at least there aren’t earthquakes this time so it doesn’t feel quite as surreal.
apollo’s “i’m fine!” catchphrase is now “tout va bien !” which means “everything’s fine!”
some of the names have been translated again. for example, trucy is now called “Vérité” which not only is the french form of the english name “Verity”, but it also is the literal french word for “truth”, which gives some dialogues a double meaning whenever they’re discussing the truth. “Vous dites... la vérité... Apollo Justice... ?”
they did not change lamiroir’s name. they did however change machi tobaye to “Tomas Kashkash”, make of that what you will
in the first case, phoenix and kristoph use formal pronouns when addressing each other in court, and informal pronouns outside of court, which is fun. by the final case they’re exclusively using formal pronouns since their friendship has pretty much ended. (it’s a similar case with klavier and daryan, who switch to formal pronouns when they’re trying to be serious/professional and when their friendship starts to splinter.) (apollo and trucy use informal pronouns on each other pretty much the whole way through.)
trucy says “Mééééééé !” a lot
she also calls apollo “Pollo”
wocky kitaki (”Willy” in french) is my fricking favourite oh my god. he speaks in such verlan-ified slang i had to painstakingly decipher every single thing he said. i love him. when he said “sakom” i felt that 😔✊ he’s nigh-incomprehensible just like he was in the english version. absolute king.
in order to make wocky so iconic they apparently had to sacrifice klavier though, because in this version he is english. ENGLISH. AS IN, FROM ENGLAND. usually the french localisation takes its cues from the english version so i thought they’d keep him german, and then when he started calling people “miss” instead of “Fräulein” i thought maybe they’d made him american, like he was in the original japanese version, but NO IT TURNS OUT HE’S JUST ENGLISH??? LIKE FROM ENGLAND????? U WOT M8 JOLLY GOOD OLD CHAP CHEWSDAY INNIT????? I’M FROM ENGLAND, THIS IS THROWING ME OFF TOO MUCH
and they didn’t even commit to the englishification!! he barely says any english stuff at all! he sometimes says “miss” or “mister” and that’s... about it? he doesn’t even have any “Achtung, baby!” equivalent!! he calls apollo “M. Grand Front” which yeah means basically the same thing as herr forehead but it’s entirely in french so what’s the point?? god if you were gonna curse him by making him from freaking england then at least go all the way?? at least his “Objection !” sounds cool i guess...
and his name is “Konrad” in this version. that’s fine because “clavier” means “keyboard” in french (like the thing you type on) so i get that it would have sounded silly. but imo they should have gone in the opposite direction and picked a random english word to name him then. they should have named him Stapler or something. why’d they give him a normal name. he is Stapler Gavin in my heart
ema calls him “minet pailleté” btw which yeah pretty much just means glimmerous fop. (she studied in england too in this version WHY THE FRICK IS EVERYONE ENGLISH)
there were some fun french puns, such as calling phoenix apollo’s “mentor” (french for “mentor”, if you couldn’t guess) and then calling him “menteur” which means liar and sounds very similar
“I killed a man named “Smith” with a bottle because I am an evil human being.”

i have suffered. i have received unspeakable brain trauma. i have read sentences that i simply cannot unread. that's right, it's time for my chaotic review of verity by colleen hoover!
now i wrote an actual, proper review of this book that used paragraphs and real grammar, but this is tumblr. you're getting the bullet points, you're getting the sweary words, you're getting the dissolution of my sanity.
there's a lot of graphic and disturbing content in this book, so if you're bothered by that kind of thing, it might be best not to read.
the plot:
so our narrator, lowen ashleiggghghghg, is hired by this guy jeremy crawford to finish his wife verity's thriller book series bcus verity was in a car accident and is now profoundly disabled (can't move, can't talk, needs regular care, etc.)
she needs verity's notes and somehow ends up living in verity's house so she can spend literally all day going through verity's office. the only believable part of this is that a writer could be so disorganised that you'd need full days to try and go through all of their stuff
for some context, jeremy is apparently brooding (though i see like, 0 evidence of this) over his wife's accident as well as the deaths of his twin daughters chastin and harper
in verity's office, lowen finds a manuscript that looks like it's verity's autobiography
verity's autobiography starts as overly detailed jeremy smut and oh my fucking god i mean overly detailed i wish i could GOUGE my fucking EYES out this is just BAD PORN this book is like 90% porn 10% no-plot
anyway as this autobiography goes on, lowen is like. holy shit. verity is cuckoo bananas. she is OBSESSED with jeremy. she does that patrick star thing of "what do you when i'm at work all day?" "wait for you to get back :(". she wants to be jezza's ONLY focus and resents her daughters for taking his focus away
like, she tries to plan out her pregnancy so that she'll gain as little weight as possible, but then she finds out they're twins and she's like omg im RUINED and tries to miscarry and abort them
after they're born, she has a premonition of her daughter harper killing her other daughter, chastin (the only daughter she likes, verity fucking hates her kids but randomly starts loving chastin). chastin does in fact die of anaphylactic shock when she's around 8 and verity blames harper
jeremy won't fuck verity because he's so sad about his daughter's death, and verity is not having this, but through some twisted logic she's like maybe he'll be all out of grief if another daughter dies! so she kills harper and stages it as a canoe accident
back to lowen, she's reading this autobiography at an absolute snail's pace (like 1 short chapter a day) while also living with Hot Dad Jeremy (she's into him, especially after reading all that Jeremy Porn), this is most of the book tbh . a series of weird things happen that convince her that verity is faking her disability
lowen is also 100% convinced that verity is PURE FUCKING EVIL from this autobiography
fast forward, jeremy and lowen hook up (surprised pikachu face)
and yes, verity was faking being disabled, where is her OSCAR for that METHOD ACTING that fooled the HOSPITAL the NURSES for MONTHS!!! she didnt even flinch when lowen tried to startle her by literally throwing something across the room. daniel day-lewis is SHAKING
lowen shows jeremy the autobiography and jeremy starts choking verity
lowen is like, stop! they'll know u did it! think of ur son, he'll be fatherless!
actually you should kill him by making her puke instead so they'll think she just aspirated on her own vomit ;)
so jeremy does that instead because that's totally the most sensible option to do in this particular scenario
7 month timeskip and all is great because EVIL verity is DEAD and now lowen and jeremy can be together forever and they even have a new baby on the way bcus jeremy came inside her no condom and apparently every woman in this book is insanely fertile and gets pregnant on the first try
TWIST TIME!!!
they go back to verity and jeremy's house to finish clearing out their stuff
but... lowen finds a note in verity's room...
verity claims that the autobiography was just a writing example to help her write from an antagonistic perspective (her thriller series is notably written from the villain's POV)
jeremy found the autobiography and tried to choke verity to death, but when that failed, he set up her car accident, after which verity decided she had to fake being disabled so she could run away with their living son crew and eventually explain everything
but this plan is an F bcus shes fuckin dead now isnt she
so much effort and for WHAT
the book leaves us with the fucking stupid dry ass cliché question of: WHICH WAS THE REAL VERITY? WHAT WERE THE LIES? WAS THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY REAL OR NOT? and actually i dont give a flying fuck i was just glad to be done
my thoughts
the characters in the book make the most ridiculous and nonsensical decisions and trust me i can say that for sure bcus i have never made a good decision in my life
in the opening chapters, lowen witnesses a car accident & is splattered with blood on the way to her publisher meeting
she encounters jeremy (tho she doesnt know who he is yet) and he takes her to the men's bathroom of a coffee shop to get cleaned up
lowen tAKES HER SHIRT OFF IN FRONT OF THIS ABSOLUTE STRANGER
i am trying to ignore this red flag maybe shes just confident
jeremy proceeds to lock the door to the men's bathroom so that no one else can come in, and lowen finds this comforting! how chivalrous of mr sexy man jeremy!
WHAT THE FUCK LOWEN? HOW IS THIS COMFORTING? I'D BE FUCKING. I'D BE PANICKING SO BAD I'D BE OUT THE DOOR
later in the book we find out that lowen has a chronic sleepwalking problem and can even open inside locks when she's sleepwalking
she broke her wrist sleepwalking when she was a kid so it's not really safe for her to be able to get out and about while sleepwalking
jeremy offers to install a lock on the outside of lowen's bedroom door, so that she can't leave her bedroom without him opening the outside lock for her
instead of finding this FUCKING TERRIFYING
she's Thrilled by his generosity! wow! isn;t jeremy so kind and thoughtful?
lowen! LOWEN!!! GIRL!!!!!!!!!
lucky for her jeremy is apparently a nice guy so jeremy's fucking weird actions are glossed over and theyre so nice arent they... haha...
dude i wanna know what the fuck jeremy has that women are literally OBSESSED with him. hes so bland. he has no personality. he's a cardboard cutout of a man but apparently he has good dick idk
lowen is so besotted with jeremy that she doesnt think it's bad that he tried to kill his wife twice and then succeeded on the third try
no! it's actually so sweet because it proves how much of a dedicated father he is! he thinks verity killed harper so by killing her he's just being such a good and protective dad haha! murder is okay
there was also just way too much sex in this book like i said it before but truly i cannot encapsulate how much of this book was sex. and in case u were wondering about the quality of the sex, 50 shades author EL james is in the acknowledgements of this book.
how are people giving this book 5 stars? it's fucking. it's laughably bad. the plot is so stupid. the characters are boring. no-one makes a single good decision. jeremy is white bread. it's like, really really bad. i really need to know if the straights giving this book 5 stars need help, therapy, or jesus. if u do, please blink SOS in morse code, i will come and get u.
everyone who has a superiority complex because they've never read a single CoHo book is correct . u guys are doing great

SK moon do you like borad and card games?
If so what do you play?
Who do you play with?
Also for SK moon, I challenge you to two or three things when or if you have time i dont care when or if but. 1. Board game 2. Card games and/or tickle battle( I understand if u wanna just keep toward sun and the kids, so no worries bout that i understand.
But did not hurt to try.)
Also i believe you sun and the kids would be interested in these stuffed plushies
https://palmpals.com/
Lemme know if the link does not work.
There 5 inches and they fit in the palm of your hands yall can bring them anywhere and everywhere.
There are a verity of them and collections to collect.
The only 2 downsides to this site is that they take bout 6-9 days.
And they only ship in the US and no where else.
But some to most are on amazon.com.
Sorry there is alot to read. Good luck :)
Moon does like board games and card games, he's played plenty while babysitting kids. He's mastered them all, but he likes letting the kiddos win.
And those fun times are reserved for Sun or the kiddos. Not strangers :]
and aww those are cute! I think Sun would have a couple on his desk. He'd use them to cheer kids up. Or maybe he'd have one that fits the theme of the current day's reading circle. Could be fun for each of the kids to hold and pass around.

is there a topic and/or character that u never get the chance to discuss despite wanting to?
well, nobody is stopping me from doing so, it's my blog! ;)
still, i DO have some topics where i wish there was more opportunity to collaboratively riff with other people about them; when i post about some stuff i know people will come riff with me. and then for certain topics i'm like 'hm well noone will care about this one, oh well'.
i know i do talk about her but you probably wouldn't guess how much i think about idw1 arcee from my blog, for example. or verity. for both of them i really want to do more meta, and it's been a kinda bummer to go looking for prior examples and find so little tbh. (there's some older idw1 arcee meta- most of which i disagree with- but functionally next to no verity meta, at least not that i could find.)
also i still kind of want to one day talk about minimus and OCD and how that is handled in both the comic and the fandom, which is a topic i always threatened to talk about and never did. this is probably more likely to actually happen now you can turn reblogs off on posts, hah. :p
i dunno, there's lots of stuff where i'm like 'ah, i want to talk about that!' but because i don't necessarily have anyone to talk about it with my motivation like. peters out a bit. buuut probably the solution to that is to just post about it in ways that make other people interested, so!

FELLOW AROACE NB LESBIAN!!!!!!!!
i am in LOVE with your art, your colors are always gorgeous and i am so very gay for your OCs <3 they're just so well designed! i need to know everything about them immediately
OMG HIII TO A FELLOW AROACE ENBY LESBIAN!!! THANK U FOR THE COMPLIMENTS<333
my ocs are EVERYTHING to me so im glad u asked!!!
dulcie, amadeus, apollo, artemis, verity, and pulsar are all cupids! cupids in this world are beings formed by the sea who meddle with feelings related to the heart. most of them want nothing to do with their powers and just wanna chill out but certain people want to take advantage of their powers.
dulcie and amadeus are best friends and met each other when they were taken in by a mysterious figure who sadly did not see them as people with personhoods but as divine messengers from some god. they spent a majority of their existence under this figure's influence until one day realizing that they deserved to live a life not having to conform to anyone's perception of them and they escaped. now they live in a little van traveling around the world with their friends!
ill talk more about the others under the cut!!
artemis and apollo are the closest thing to a concept of twin siblings for cupids since they were created by the same pile of sea foam and separated into two distinct beings. they took their names from the greek deities because they thought it was cool LOL
artemis is a doctor for cupids and they help each of them out when they get afflicted with a condition called love sickness(it makes you vomit cartoon hearts and knocks you out with a fever for about a week LMAO) artemis also helps apollo out with regular checkups since he has some slight balancing problems
apollo is not a talkative person but likes to solve mysteries and does a tiny bit of detective work! he enjoys putting things together with all the clues he finds and stringing up intricate events and goes on full dramatic monologues(one of the few times they talk at length) apollo is mistaken to be in bad moods since they dont emote much but the truth is theyre actually a very happy person! he has a few balancing issues so he uses a cane to steady himself
verity is a postal worker who delivers mail quickly thanks to his wings! despite them all being cupids, wings are pretty rare to form for them. verity is a very orderly and punctual person but also INCREDIBLY shy. they have trouble talking to others directly but want to be more confident and the look up to pulsar as a confident role model. verity also is a bit self conscious about their wings. amadeus helps make clothes for him so the wings wont tear apart anything!
pulsar LOVES being a responsible friend!! they keep the group in check with gentle reminders and is overall a people-oriented person. they get incredibly sleepy sometimes and take frequent naps. pulsar realizes how verity wants to be more outgoing and they hang out so verity can learn to come out of his shell a bit more. pulsar also loves to dress up and play up the 'cool confident' persona very often which ends up with everyone realizes that under the persona theyre kinda dorky LOL
ANYWAYS THANK U SM FOR ASKING ABOUT THEM I LOVE TALKING ABOUT THEM BUT SOMETIMES GET A BIT EMBARRASSED SO THANK UUUUUU!!!!

Post MoonFall
Tumblr media
Thunder bunny Amber reporting in…
Under the Hunter's Moon Eerie orange glow the final attack of Moonfall was held. 12 Students: Verity, Steve,Otha,Celsa,Honey,Sen,Nisa,Kylona,Azel,Vanie,Ryker and Rowan were all taken in the middle of the night. Last seen walking into the forest under a daze.
Not for a lack of trying, Every adult that attempted to follow were placed under a nightmarish illusion of madness. What could they do but watch as a group of their students play hero and follow them through the barrier. The "Hero" Party consisted of 8 students that were desperate enough to go after their loved ones and friends. Myself, Gora,Aurora,Sara,Karenos,Lorelay,Krul and Ryo set our sights for our friends only to be met with a ghastly sight.
Not so soon after we entered the forest were we hit with the atrocious scent and the full view of the previously missing and pressumed dead students strung up on a tree and completely charred. Urgrad, Sylvana, Dagormith, Theo, Cerana, Nar Hadia and Sleazius. But with everyone focused on the mission, only Karenos could look in horror and pain. I couldn't leave them up there like halloween decor so i had my Familiars Ginger and Rouge take them down and cover them til the mission was over. But since that sight… Karenos looked lost.
After traveling deeper into the forest we finally saw them! But they were all in a trance, markings binding them to a circle, so even if we wanted to we couldn't grab and dip. According to the others there were four figures ready to fight them. But thanks to the fact illusions never affected me. I could see the villain for who they truly were… Sienna Graves. Once she revealed herself to the others i couldn't help but noticed the newest student, Gora, seemed shocked and out of sorts. Even Ryo who was normally always ready seemed a mess. He really just wanted my sister Honey safe.
Seeing that i could see her clear as day i struck her with a lightning bolt, as it hit Sienna yelled to me that it was a cheap shot. Ill admit it. It was. Gora stood aimlessly as she looked at the wisp. Dammit why wasnt she moving?? Aurora tried but seemed to see something unknown and hit that instead. Fuck. Sienna then turned to the captives and hurt that star kid. Why??? But shortly after she tried to hit sara but it only grazed her. What was strange was that blood slowly trickled down her nose… then Sienna started to cough… what was going on? Sara, while Sienna was coughing attacked her with her axe. Making a good amount of damage. Karenos, still shaken from the sight previously tried to attack sienna but made no contact. It was ….pitiful. Upperclassman Lorelay also let her emotions get the best of her, not that i can really blame her, but slipping on a pebble was…. damn. Krul finally arrived and threw his prefects door at her and missed…. was … was he taking this seriously??? Sienna then tried to attack me, it made sense but again… i could see so i just. Moved to the side. She on the other hand started to cough blood. Was she dying? Ryo kept clawing at the illusions, i could feel his rage, and desperation to save my sister, granted he tried to wake Gora from her daze soon after. During this…. Bunny Houses Prefect Vanie died…. apparently Sienna poisoned her to keep her weakened. It just followed due course… Saras cries must've been heard, because kylonas controlled body began to cry. After being attacked i tried to hit back but she was a wisp and remembered she could poof out of the way. Gora seemed to fall apart and did nothing as she fell into darkness. Did sienna feel for her? Seeing Kylona cry set something off in Aurora, she ended up slugging Sienna in the throat. Ouch. Krul ended up going super saiyan when he realized Vanie died… she must've been well liked. Irritated, Sienna tried murdering Steve but Lorelay said no and shielded him with her body. I don't think she will make it. In fact, i don't know how much longer sienna will last either, She looked like shit. Good for us, bad for her. After hitting Loreley Sienna aimed at the Naga. Fuck is he okay??? Seeing Sienna aim for Steve set Sara off as she literally bashed Sienna's skull. The wisps blood was everywhere. Damn. Karenos still attacked at nothingness. Why cant he snap out of this?? I can see Lorelay laying down. She's not getting up any time soon. Despite that head reeling from the recent bashing, her illusions saved her from Krul's wrath it seemed. Lore spoke to the concerned sara. But i cant focus too much there. My ears were filled with Ryo trying to knock some sense into Gora. We need help. We were dumb to come with just 8 people. Sara spoke through tears while sienna attempted to attack Aurora which failed. Ryo finally got up to fight but he missed because of her swaying. Dammit.
Soon i could see that the phoenix gave out. Like Vanie she succumb to death. I tried to attack sienna but she poofed away. HOW?!?! Gora just stared into the nothing. There's no way she fell that hard in like….24 hours!! I can hear Sara screaming out for the phoenix. Lore was dead. Aurora, her anger was palpable. She …hugged? Sienna and engulfed her in the flames of hell til sienna finally died. I think we all know she's with sun now… I felt her magic spells break as we were all freed. But at the cost of two of our own…. Lorelay Polly and Vanessa …well i don't really know her so i'm not sure. Hearing My sisters voice was sweet music. But she wanted Ryo… so i stayed back. Only the gods know what will happen now… Now that the Moon finally fell…..

okay so The Martian by Andy Weir is one of my fav sci-fi books, and its also funny. I also like the movie, but the book adds to the movie imo.
For romance, if you like slow burns, Mariana Zapata writes them. My favorite of hers is From Lukov with Love. Its an enemies to lovers ice skating book (im a sljt for a good sports book). All Rhodes Lead Here was also good imo, but I know people who didn't like it. Its a grumpy single dad romance one. She has a fake dating/marriage one in The Wall of Winnipeg and Me, and thats okay but wasn't my favorite I hate to say. It was a good introduction but I was indifferent majority of the time.
Love and Other Words is a childhood lovers and second chance romance type book, and it made me bawl. It does have TWs, such as death and a few other things but it was really good *it isnt time travel but it flashes from the past to the present*.
My friend says Normal People is really good (I watched the web/TV series on Hulu about it and didn't read the book). That friend also recommended the Love Hypothesis, which I did enjoy. Fake dating scenario.
uh obviously any Agatha Christie is good for mystery (may I recommend the Murder of Roger Akroyd, The Murder on the Orient Express, or And Then There Were None).
Now, the Silent Patient? Thats good. Its a suspense/thriller about a psych doctor and a psych patient.
Verity by Colleen Hoover was also good. I didnt feel it was as creepy as people talked, but the language is downright dirty (like how they talk about sex and all). It is also a thriller.
I can recommend more but uh I have to go to my ebooks to think so im gonna send these and then send another. And some people may love these books and others may hate them, but if you do read any be curious as to your thoughts (or if you read any already!)
AAAAA thank you so much!!! i do have to say i’ve read the love hypothesis and LOVED IT (i’m literally a STEM grad student it’s so perfect!!) and i’m patiently waiting for love on the brain. i didn’t read normal people yet but i read conversations with friends so i’ll add that to my list!! the other one i read was verity which i thought had a phenomenal ending. so we’re def on the same page so thank u😭

Honestly Verity is great, it feels a lil bit more abstract and psychological horror to me (I can't say much cuz I don't want to spoil you) but TITF traumatized me, I read it in a whole afternoon cuz I wanted to be done with it for good and then I put the book in a pile under my bed and act like it doesn't exist, plus I feel like I overthought that book quite a lot and thinking about it being a possible scenario in the future seeing the actual state of the world and I couldn't sleep 😕
fasjdfasd literally the night of all the booky asks, i went and finished titf and let me just say. goddamn. i yam right there with you LOOOL, and am honestly just in awe of the fact that you have an actual paper copy of it because... WHAT IF YOUR FAMILY FINDS IT ONE DAY😭😭😭
anywayyyyy, i have literally been stuck on some bits of it for AGES. i was literally buttass naked in my shower unpacking it all, and while i'm not too convinced the cannibalism parts will come true, the part about using animals as means for our culling... is oddly... scary.
NFKLJASDFLAS not to mention how certain scenes definitely... *ahem* weigh on my mind pretty heavy :(((
at least we can know pain together tho, right?😞
(as for verity, now i’m somewhat excited! i tend to enjoy abstract, so i’m glad to hear. i appreciate u, legend!)

the suh family | j.s
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
➸ word count; 1983 words
➸ (by end) jude; aged 14, verity & katie; aged 9, connor; newborn
 nct masterlist
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ ⋆✦⋆ ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
Jude Suh
Oopsy baby
Continuing on from this, the two of you had very very long conversations with like a million different people who worked for SM
Things seemed bleak for a while, but eventually the company decided that they were okay with the pregnancy
It was decided all round that you’d keep the pregnancy quiet for as long as possible
Overall it was a fairly nice pregnancy
The other NCT members treated you almost like you were made of glass
All of the younger members are in awe of their Johnny,, like he’s a DAD
Obviously Johnny is really close w the exo members so they would talk a lot ab your pregnancy as well
You got lots of advice from jongdae lol
Anyway everyone would just like hold open the door for you and help you stand up and everyone would just watch you walking around to make sure u were safe n that
As your stomach grows, Johnny becomes more and more doting of you
Does anything and everything you ask him to
A lot of your time is spent in the SM building, either sat on a couch cradling your stomach in the recording studio or hovering around the practice rooms looking for either your boyfriend or some other idol you were friendly with
At around 5 months you found out it was a boy
You cried lmao all you could do was picture a tiny Johnny and it made ur heart EXPLODEEE
When you reached six months you decided that you were ready to reveal it to everybody
Johnny did one of those staple sm handwritten letters explaining that you were expecting ur baby
And despite all of the worrying you had done for the past several months everyone was very very supportive !!
Naturally ur identity was hidden from the public
But yeah there were obviously a few antis being awful but it was drowned out by the nice messages !!
Omg I forgot to mention JOHNNY’S MOTHER WAS SO EXCITED
Her first grandchild,,, lil Jude
She would just call you all the time and be like ‘how are you? Are you ok? Have you eaten? Have u had something to drink?’ And you’d be like of course I haveee
Johnny loved ur bump loved loved loved it he would keep his hand on it as you slept
Also you liked to talk to mark & ten as well as Johnny ab your anxieties,,,,,, they were very supportive of you. And it made u feel a lot better
BUT YEAH Jude Suh made his appearance nearly a week late in late October
He was massive
Like 8lbs but he’s Johnnys son so ur not really sure what you expected
And Johnny was in lov he was SO HAPPY he loved his lil baby boy
He posted a pic of his hand online and everyone went mad
Other than that you kept Jude fairly shielded from the public
But that being said… hear me out JCC dad and son day together (Judes face was mostly blurred but nctzens loved it anyway)
Anyways
He was quite an easy baby
He didn’t cry too long and slept through the night most nights
The members loved him,, he was the first NCT baby so
Taeyong felt almost like a granddad lol
Jisung also very shyly presented you with a gift box he put together w Chenle that had like a shit ton of baby clothes in,, he got very embarrassed when you hugged him
Anyway time for older Jude
Very very very energetic toddler
One year Johnny brings you both on tour with him to America
Jude is initially very confused but loves it
Gives him a chance to flex his English skills in front of his uncles
Each venue gets him so excited he just runs around on the stage and in the corridors all day
Haechan chases him around
Sometimes you take him out sightseeing during the day depending on the city
You didn’t watch the concert every night as well, but on the nights you did you’d put those big ass noise blocker headphones on Jude and you’d have a lil sing and dance together and you’d be like ‘look there’s daddy!’ And he’d be like ‘why is he so far away’ :(
And after the show Jude would just rocket towards Johnny and give him the biggest hug
And Johnny would lift him up and just be like,, ‘you’re getting heavy little man,, you’re not so little anymore’
But Jude doesn’t pay attention and he’s like ‘daddy you danced good !!’
I can totally see Johnny posting the photo you took of them from behind (so u can’t see jude’s face ffff) onto his instagram
And then you’d visit johnny’s parents in Chicago and they give Jude lots and lots of cuddles they just lov him
Johnny takes all of u to his fave places in Chicago and also u go to the bean!! And Jude is very confused and just sort of like stares at his weird and distorted reflection like ????
ANYWAYS your favourite thing is to watch Jude grow and change over time
You can literally always see him growing and changing and learning new things and you LOV IT
When Jude is like 6-7 you and Johnny both agree that you do want another baby at some point
So u come off whatever form of birth control ur on <33
And then
Jude is 9 years old when u become pregnant again
You kind of plan it…? Sort of?
You kind of plan it…? Sort of?
Anyway you tell Johnny basically immediately this time
Of course he’s not mad he’s so excited
Obviously he grew up without siblings so he’s so excited Jude will have one !!
You find that you feel a lot sicker than you did last time but ur not sure if u just forgot what it was like last time or something
But you get the biggest shock when you go for ur first scan and they tell u that there’s two whole babies in there
Ur like,,, Johnny Suh why have u done this to me
And johnny’s like a mess because Jude now has TWO SIBBERS
He also silently hoped for a girl
Obviously nct are a bit older now so its not so out of the ordinary that they’re staring to pop out kids now
Omg ive just come to the real life realisation that if all of the nct members have kids and on average people have 2.5 kids there’s gonna be like 40+ kids. Probably over 50 if some of them have 3. What the fuck I don’t know what to do with this information
ANYWAY because of this your pregnancy isn’t as like secluded as the last one
Once you hit 12 weeks you start telling people and everyone is super excited for ur twins
At another scan u find out that they’re both girls
For personal reasons Johnny passes away
Not literally lol
But on the inside
Hes so EXCITED
He picks their names
He tells you that they don’t really have any meaning he just likes them
Calls Verity ‘Vevvy’
You’re not sure why but its cute
A lot of times during ur pregnancy he’d come home and you would just be chilling in one of his oversized shirts with your large bump spilling out of it and he’d just watch you in awe like those! Are my favourite girls!
Anyways the twins are very very active
They won’t stop kicking and you get tired of it very quickly
It irritates you to no end because you just want them to calm down mayhaps but they don’t
Johnny tries to calm them down for you but it’s quite hard because they’re foetuses and they do not understand yk
What the fuck am I even talking about
Anyway Verity and Katie were spring babies
They were born about four weeks early
Verity was born first (you had them vaginally)
She was whisked away before Johnny could even see her but soon enough Katie made her appearance
They were wrapped in little pink blankets and had the cutest lil stripy hats
They were a bit small obviously, like 5lbs 11oz each
And identical !!
And Johnny fell so in love again
He’s obsessed w his little girls
Verity and Katie are literal besties btw
When they’re babies they often cried because they thought the other one wasn’t there or that they just wanted to be together
This carried on to when they were toddlers and kids
When they were tiny Johnny learned how to plait hair (he practised on you, much to your dismay)
So by the time they were in school Johnny could do their hair very well, as much as he tugged on their hair occasionally or mismatched hair tie colours
The twins really really loved nature,, you have no idea where they got this from but they just thrived in it
Sometimes, when you had time, you’d drive out to the countryside and make flower chains for each other
Or go swimming in the lakes in summer
And just run around the fields making up stories together
Verity was much quieter than Katie
Much more thoughtful as well
n e ways
You didn’t plan on having anymore kids
You didn’t plan on having anymore kids
You didn’t plan on having anymore kids
You were like 3 is a nice number
…. but then you started getting sick
At first you just thought it was like a bug or something but then boom missed period
And u were like…. Surely not
Verity & Katie were five at this point, Jude was 14 nearly 15
So at first u were like oh dear
How is Johnny going to react?
You didn’t know just how against he may be about having another baby
You began subtly dropping hints over the next couple of weeks, but he doesn’t really catch on
Like you randomly put bread in the oven with no explanation and he kind of just furrows his eyebrows and ignores it
Eventually you just cave and tell him
‘John… I’m pregnant again.’
You think his eyes genuinely pop out of his skull he’s like 👁👄👁
‘Really?’
‘Yeah…’
‘Oh my god that’s amazing!’
‘…you’re not mad?’
‘No, of course not… obviously it was a surprise but I’m not angry at you at all.’
‘I thought you didn’t want another baby…’
‘I never said that,’ he chuckles, ‘I said three was a nice number, and that id be happy with three. But id also be happy with four.’
Anyway your pregnancy isn’t that bad!!
Jude is obviously big angsty teen at this point but he’s very happy to have a new sibling! He always just asks how u are and if ur feeling okay or if you need anything
Verity and Katie kind of don’t understand but they like feeling the baby kick and stuff
You decide this time that you’re going to wait to find out the gender bc its ur final pregnancy and idk its just exciting !!
Overall the biggest problem u have is your back pain
You just know this baby is gonna be big asf just like Jude
Spoiler alert ur not wrong
Continuing on
In contrast to all ur other babies, Connor barely kicks
Sometimes ur like?? Uhh? Is he still in there?? and then he’ll kick ur bladder so hard u pee
And ur just like ffs why
Eventually after what felt like a very quick pregnancy
You give birth to a boy !!
And ur like omg <33 two girls and two boys !!
And then ur like omg I have so many kids how
When you take him home the other three kids are all over him
Jude steps back to let Verity and Katie suss him out
And your family just felt complete

if u want, could u tell us more about daisi? ur ocs are super cool and i love hearing about them!! 💙
omg strato ur so sweet thank u!!!!!! makes me very happy to hear u like them!!! <3
but ya!! daisi is the half sibling of sync as they share the same mom, verity, who cheated on austere briefly. who this toon is isnt too important as verity wasnt w/ them very long and so she and austere raised daisi. austere stayed w/ verity despite her cheating ya....they have a very toxic relationship and cant seem to separate despite all that happens.
daisi was raised very similarly to sync, in that she was also forced to become tuless. this frustrated daisi that she didnt get the free will to decide herself. different to sync who was depressed he couldnt choose tu because he rly wanted tu, daisi on the other hand didnt care to be tuless but hated that it couldnt pick itself.
daisi is also squirtless because it has trauma to water and is terrified of any water. whenever daisi would argue w/ verity or "step out of line" so to speak, verity would hold daisi down in a sink or tub or whatever of water and keep it there for a distressful amt of time..... verity never did this to sync, but daisi was raised after him, and verity sadly got even more abusive.
daisi was taught to bottle up its emotions and not speak unless spoken to, she became extremely resentful to her parents, but mainly verity. austere disagreed w/ what verity would do to daisi but wouldnt dare to speak up in fear of verity.
daisi currently still lives w/ its parents but has plans to run away and find her half-sibling. the two are similar in age but daisi was kept secret at her other parent's home from austere until sync had ran away.
thats the gist of its like, backstory!! she is very sad :( spoiler alert eventually she meets sync and he helps it work thru its trauma

Nice to type back here Lila salt idea based on (if u saw) Zoey 101 anger management Lila sees a therapy about her lying and anger issues and jealousy of Mari and possesivness of Adrien and irrational hatred of LB after lashing out at Mari and Alya records live exposing herself. Search and watch the episode on dailymotion to get ideas then write
Lying management
When Alya demanded proof that Marinette could not provide, Tikki had been present. Then when Lila had started threatening Marinette...Tikki may have hit the record button and got the whole thing on the phone.
She was about to send it to Alya when Marinette got upset. She accidentally sent it to everyone on Marinette’s contact list, including Jagged, Nadja and Ms Busier (ok, she’s a lousy teacher and won’t do much), on her way out of the purse.
As a result, while Lila got upset by Adrien and Tiki was comforting Marinette, the akuma was confused as to where to go because there was so much rage and hurt everywhere.
Once Marinette’s class got the text; they were shocked by Lila’s admission and began to do real fact checking.
Hawkmoth decided to settle for Alya, the reporter whose pride was injured and angered on behalf of her Best Friend and blog’s reputation.
Ladybug and Chat Noir did manage to defeat Lady Wifi, but not before Lady Wifi made sure everyone could see the list of lies Lila made about celebrities.
And yes; Lady Wifi finally asked Ladybug it she and Lila were friends. Ladybug said no before telling Alya to release Lila.
As an afterthought, Lady Wifi had an epiphany on live tv. “Hey, since you obviously weren’t in Achu helping Prince Ali, where were you all this time while we were attending school?”
Since this matter was blown up, the school board has no choice but to get involved. Dupont has ruined its reputation for blindly believing Lila’s falsified documents and excuses.
Mrs Rossi is embarrassed and agrees that she had failed to keep her Daughter in check.
Lila should have been expelled for her actions but since she was already receiving tons of hate mail and lawsuits (Jagged made sure the liar who threatened his favourite designer would not get away with this), that seems excessive.
As a result, Lila will repeat the year, serve detention, and attend lying management therapy classes.
Considering Lila’s infamy, everybody in that class hates her and bullies her.
Lila tries to get herself out of there by claiming she is being bullied.
Miss Bustier is not around to plea leniency on her behalf. She had been fired for bias treatment.
The new principal agreed to give Lila a trial. If she can make it 2 whole weeks without lying, she will no longer attend lying management classes.
Hired to be her constant supervisor is Mrs Verity.
Marinette complains that Lila will get off more easily now because she is good at acting the innocent lamb.
Adrien is also torn about how to feel about this. On one hand, he dislikes Lila for threatening Marinette. On the other hand, he feels sorry for her pariah status.
Alya suggests they test to see if Lila really will keep to her promise to be truthful and good from now on.
1. Alya gets tough looking fans of Jagged Stone to ask Lila if she is the one their idol warned about. (Lila changed her appearance so those outside of class won’t recognise her). Lila reluctantly says yes in front of Mrs Vertity. The fans do NOT beat her up but call her a horrible being. Lila just gritted her teeth through it all.
2. Marinette trips, splattering food all over Lila. As people start to gather, Lila knows they are not on her side and Marinette is obviously lying on the floor. There is no way they will believe Marinette did that on purpose. So Lila forcedly offers to help Marinette stand up. People wonder if Lila tripped Marinette. But as Lila starts to suggest that Marinette was the petty one, she sees Mrs Verity and just simply states she didn’t do anything.
3. Lila is preparing for a history presentation. She was supposed to do research on one of the French kings, but since she actually had to do the work instead of plagarising it, she relied on Wikipedia, as confirmed by Markov. Alya edited that page to have history on some other king. When Lila made her presentation, the teacher called her out for not doing proper research and asked where she got the information from. Lila truthfully says Wikipedia. (Mrs Verity had seen the site logo and while disapproving of it as a research source, she didn’t think it was the only source and had said nothing before). The professor asked if that was it and Lila sulkily agrees. This causes investigation to be done about Lila’s previous papers and they are discovered to have been done with her classmates help. Lila’s grades dropped. Lila wants to lighten her classmates’ accusations but Mrs Verity again makes her stop
Worried Lila will get away with no lying therapy, Marinette comes up with a plan.
On the last day, Lila is forced to give a seemingly sincere public apology to Marinette. Mrs Verity congratulates her and leaves to tell the principal.
Marinette: I honestly didn’t think you could be truthful. See; this is how you are supposed to make friends.
Lila: oh shut up! You may have won the battle this time around, but I will get even with you. I’ll smear your reputation so bad you’ll have to change your name!
Lila stills at the sight of Marinette’s unconcerned expression...and the sound of clicking heels returning.
Mrs Verity: sigh; you were right Marinette, she was just waiting for me to leave.
Lila’s punishment is extended, she is forced to be an outcast everywhere as her classmates keep posting what her new appearance look like so nobody will be deceived by her. Everywhere Lila goes, people call her names and avoid her. Some shops even refuse to serve her because they are worried about what she will do.
Akumas do come but Lila is no longer a suitable target because she has been exposed and people are keeping a close watch on her (even in the bathroom!)
It gets to the point where Mrs Rossi has no choice but to send Lila to a rural boarding school in the middle of nowhere for naughty children.

My predictions for Felix’s role in season 4
A few episodes into season 4 (possibly episode 9 as we know that’s the episode titled Gabriel Agreste), Felix will return to stay with the Agrestes while Amelie has to go on a ling business trip. As to why Amelie is having Felix stay with the Agrestes in Shadow Moth-ridden Paris instead of having him stay with relatives back in London, I have a couple of explanations:
1. Just because London doesn't to deal with Hawk Moth, that doesn't mean London doesn't have its own supernatural problems. Zagtoon has a series in the works called Miss Rose, which is about a magical spy and this series will do with crossover with Miraculous in the upcoming London special, so it stands to reason, that London has just as much supernatural drama as Paris, if not moreso. Therefore, Felix probably has to deal with supernatural threats regardless of where he is, but at least in Paris, the damage caused by akumas and sentimonsters can be reversed by Ladybug. 
2. Felix’s paternal relatives have sort of lost interest in Felix following the death of his father for reasons that I’ll explain later in the post (though u can probably already guess if u read my post about a possible return of Chat Blanc). 
After Amelie leaves for her business trip, Gabriel asks Felix to meet with him in private. Gabriel then confronts Felix about the ring he stole. Felix tries to deny it, but Gabriel calls him out of his bullshit. Felix then states that Gabriel doesn’t deserve the Graham de Vanily rings and ask him if he even know the story of said rings. Gabriel says no, so Felix then proceeds to tell the story that Amelie told him. Felix tells him that when worn together, they give the wearer special powers. Gabriel then realizes how similar this sounds to the miraculous, particularly the Bat Miraculous he read about in the Grimoire. So he then takes off the ring he’s wearing and asks Felix to put it on to see if the story is true. So Felix puts on the ring, takes out the ring he stole out of his pocket, and puts it on his other hand. When he does this, a bat kwami appears. 
After silently kicking himself for not realizing sooner that he had a third miraculous literally on hand this whole time, Gabriel then takes Felix down to the basement. Felix is pretty weirded by this, and Gabriel then asks him if he remembers the deal he made with Hawk Moth. Felix responds “how could u possibly know that... oh crap you’re Hawk Moth aren’t u?” Gabriel confirms that he is and transforms into Hawk/Shadow Moth. Shadow Moth then asks Felix to use the bat miraculous to help him in his quest for the ladybug and cat miraculous. Felix (after getting over the initial shock that his uncle is Hawk/Shadow Moth) is hesitant because while Felix had offered to help Hawk Moth back in his intro episode, that was before the NY special (AKA the one where Hawk Moth threatened to start a nuclear war, not to mention having Mayura have a sentimonster wreck Paris then recall said sentimonster before Ladybug could fix the damage). Shadow Moth then proceeds to change back into Gabriel and show Felix Emilie’s coffin. 
Gabriel the proceeds to explain to Felix (and the audience) that Emilie had been using the damaged Peacock miraculous (ok we already knew that, but we still don't know how, and I hope that episode 9 will be the episode we find out via flashbacks). After the explanation, Felix then agrees to help Gabriel, but asks him refrain from trying to start another nuclear war (and to also stop akumatizing August. Not only is it really fucked up to akumatize a baby, but it also proven ineffectual). 
The next episode mark the debut not only Bat!Felix, but Swan!Lila (for those who haven't read some fo my earlier posts, I predicted a while back that the Swan Island location that was announced a sometime ago will be home to the Swan Miraculous, which Gabriel will get his hands on and give it to Lila). Throughout season 4 (and probably season 5) Lila and Felix will team up both in and out of costume to cause all sorts of trouble (with Felix only wearing the twin rings when he’s about to transform into Bat!Felix while he wears the ring he already had prior to his debut in his civilian life, this helps throw Ladybug off his trail). However, unlike Lila who has almost everyone fooled (save for Marinette, Adrien, and probably Alya now), a good chunk of Adrien’s classmates will be wary of Felix because of the prank he pulled back in his debut episode. Marinette will especially cautious of him because of the shit she saw him pull while she was Ladybug. That said, some classmates r willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume the “impersonating Adrien to make them think he didn't like them” thing was an grief-induced isolated incident that he feels remorseful about (and I can see Rose being among the classmates to give him that benefit of the doubt, as she’s very trusting). He will still get along with Adrien for the most part =, at least in public. Also at some point in this season, we will also be introduced to Adrien and Felix’s maternal grandfather, an actor and film producer who comes from old money. 
Around episode 20 of season 4, Felix will then confide in his kwami about his backstory. At his dad’s funeral his paternal grandmother revealed that he was not the biological son of said dad and that this grandmother only tolerated Felix for her son’s sake but now sees no point in acknowledging Felix now that his dad was dead. After the funeral, Felix asked Amelie is what his grandmother said about his dad not being his biological father true. As it turns out, Felix is actually the son of Emilie and Gabriel and Adrien’s twin brother. When Emilie was pregnant, Gabriel’s career hadn't taken off yet and they were financially struggling enough so that they couldn’t take care of more than 1 child. Around the same time, Amelie and her husband were struggling with infertility. So when Emilie found out she was having twins, she decided to kill 2 birds with 1 stone by letting Amelie secretly adopt 1 of her twins (or at least this is Emilie told Amelie; based on the interactions between Gabriel and Felix in the latter’s debut episode, I’m assuming that Gabriel isn't aware of Felix being his bio son and that Emilie convinced him that his Amelie just happened to get pregnant at the same time she did). This lead to Felix to become envious of Adrien for being the one Emilie apparently chose to keep. He also started to resent Gabriel for failing to realize that he was his biological son (because it’s pretty obvious, even if Emilie and Amelie r twins, the idea of them having identical-looking sons around the same time is pretty improbable, especially since the color of Felix’s hair and eyes is more consistant with with Emilie and Adrien than Amelie, so Felix is certain that Gabriel knows on some level he's his bio son (but Felix doesn't want to tell him until after Emilie has been revived as he fears Gabriel finding out any sooner that Emilie hid hid this from him might lead to him giving  up his plans to revive her). While bat kwami can sympathize with Felix’s angst about all this family drama (plus the bat Kwami hates Gabriel's guts for obvious reasons unrelated to the twin drama), the bat kwami points out to Felix that Adrien didn’t any more of the say in matter of which twin Emilie gave to Amelie than Felix and that given Gabriel’s controlling nature, Emilie may have done Felix a favor by giving him to Amelie and her husband instead allowing him to be raised by Gabriel. This causes Felix’s resentment towards Adrien to die down a bit... until he finds out Chat Noir’s true identity.
Somehow, Felix will begin o deduce/suspect that Adrien is Chat Noir. Since Felix knows Shadow Moth’s reasons for wanting the Ladybug and Black Cat Miraculous, he sees Adrien being Chat Noir as a huge betrayal and decides then and there to destroy Adrien one and for all. The bat kwami tries to talk some sense into Felix, only for Felix to renounce him and place the bat miraculous in his pocket and put his civilian ring back on (which I headcanon as having belonged to his deceased adoptive father). He then asks Gabriel to akuamtize him into a superior version of Chat Noir. Shadow Moth is confused by this, but complies, and the akuma goes into Felix’s civilian ring, transforming him into the new Chat Blanc (if this sounds familiar, that’s probably because I wrote another post predicting that Felix will become the new Chat Blanc. He proves powerful enough for Ladybug and Chat Noir to bring out several temp heroes, but the heroes eventually manage to defeat him. Also during the battle, Shadow Moth overhears Chat Blanc 2.0 refer to Chat Noir as Adrien and Shadow Moth explains to Chat Blanc 2.0 that he saw Chat Noir and Adrien at the same place at the same time back in Gorizilla, and after the battle Chat Noir (thinking that Felix had been unwillingly akumatized and thus wouldn't remember what Shadow Moth told him) assures Felix that he and Adrien r separate people. Felix then goes home and un-renounces the bat kwami. Meanwhile, in order to ensure Felix believes that Chat and Adrien r different people, Chat Noir later approaches Ladybug and tells her “Felix thinking that I might be his cousin reminds me. Someone in my family keeps asking me if I’m Chat Noir, and don’t seem to believe me when I say no. Can I please borrow the fox so I can throw them off their trail?” So Ladybug loans Chat the fox. 
Later when Sabine is akumatized into Verity Queen and exposes Lila’s lies, she also finds out about how Lila framing Marinette back in “Ladybug” was partly motivated by Gabriel offering Lila a modeling contract in exchange for keeping Marinette away from Adrien. Confused as why Gabriel hates Marinette that much, she considers the possibility that maybe Lila fed him some lies about Marinette, but she decides to her lasso of truth on Grandpa Graham De Vanily (who happened to be in the tv studio with them as he and Lila were both scheduled for interviews) to get his opinion on Gabriel, this leads to a reveal that the the reason Emilie gave Felix to Amelie was not because she and Gabriel couldn't afford to raise more than 1 kid but because Grandpa Graham de Vanily forced Emilie to do so. You see when Amelie and her husband realized that they wouldn't be able to have biological children, they deciced to look into adoption. However, Grandpa Graham De Vanily loathed the idea of having a grandchild who wasn’t related to him by blood, so when the then-pregnant Emilie told her father she was having twins, grandpa Graham de Vanily (after asking Emilie is she already told Gabriel she was having twins yet, to which Emilie replied “not yet, he still thinks I’m just having 1 baby and I’ll tell him about the twins when he gets home) suggested that she give 1 of the twins to Amelie, then when Emilie said no on the grounds that she didn't want to choose between her kids, grandpa Graham de vanily threatened to use his connections to destroy Gabriel’s budding fashion career and make sure that he and Emilie couldn't get any kind of work needed to support their children. Bat!Felix (who made it to the studio in time to hear his grandfather’s confession, then asks Grandpa Graham de Vanily if Amelie was aware that Emilie had been coerced into giving her Felix, to which grandpa replies that he specifically told Emilie to not tell Amelie about the blackmail. And yes, this is when Gabriel finds out Felix is his biological son, and this would also be when Adrien (as Chat Noir) finds out Felix is his brother. 
Amelie returns soon after this and she is pissed at her father for forcing Emilie to give up one of her babies.

a small, quick write based on a concept me and @cumholland​ were talking about aka tom being obsessed with naming your unborn child
Tumblr media
the day you found out you were pregnant, not only were your excited, but also shit scared terrified of carrying a little human, who literally depended on you for everything. two hours into the discovery, tom was already talking about names because he felt bad for calling him/her “the bub”. unbeknown to you, he’d ordered not one... not two... not three... but four baby name books, next day delivery, because he couldn’t think (nor spell) to save his life and he already had a name on the tip of his tongue, but he’d be damned if he could get the prefect fitting. 
what else you didn’t know, is that he’d ordered the books to your name, so when he’d left for work the next morning and you received the package, your eyebrows knitted together and hands immediately got to work on unwrapping the brown package. you couldn’t help the single tear that left your eye as you studied each individual book, opening each book to a random page and picking a random name each time. 
you opened your text conversation to tom, typing the four names you’d let your eyes fall over automatically. it was a while before he replied, but that was normal, considering he was a ridiculously busy movie star with a schedule busier than the moon. but when he did reply, your heart warmed at the names he’d returned, although, you were sure anything he said could make your heart flutter and knees fall weak.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
when you got to 12 weeks, you both decided it was more than safe enough for you to officially declare yourself pregnant. the news soon spread far and wide, your friends, family and fans soon learning of the information and the incoming tweets, messages and instagram dm’s soon filled your phone, almost half of them being a suggestion of names. as you and tom sat on the sofa one cosy saturday evening, pizza on your legs and tessa giving the best puppy dog eyes, you started to scroll through the infinite amount of messages whilst suggesting the best choices aloud to tom.
“verity?” you asked, picking all the pepperoni off you pizza, even though you specifically asked for it.
“eh.... kinda old fashioned.” he shrugged, his sweat shorts riding high up his thighs and grey nike sweat top clinging to his body perfectly. it was then, you realised, there was no wonder how you got so pregnant so quick.
“okaaaaay...” you scrolled through more, screwing your face up at some suggestions until you landed on another that caught your eye. 
“sophie?”
“nope.”
you sighed, grunting until you found another name. “harper?”
“like the instrument?” he asked, picking the discarded pepperoni from your cardboard box and throwing it into his mouth. 
you took that as a no, although you weren't sure if he was being serious. “alfie?”
he was silent for a small while, letting himself finish the spiced pepperoni before washing it down with a neck full of beer. nodding, you could tell he was genuinely thinking about it, as if he was spelling out alfie holland in his head, just like you were. the last bite of his stuffed crust drove you insane, and it was almost like your baby’s name depended on this very decision. “alfie thomas holland.” 
Tumblr media
that saturday night, four weeks ago, was the last time you and tom had talked about baby names and you thought that was okay, you wasn’t putting any pressure on it. 16 weeks in, your baby the size of an avocado (apparently), tom had to fly across the pacific pond for some work stuff and you hated every minute of saying goodbye. he hated it even more. he hated when he had to say goodbye, even when you weren't pregnant, but now you were carrying a mini tom, he fought with everything he had in him to not leave the country although his pleads were denied. tommy, it’s okay. you assured him, we’ll both be here waiting for you. you’d said, watching him walk away with his lonely suitcase as he boarded the plane. that was all it took for you too pull your phone out and send the message. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
two days into tom’s work trip, you were knee deep in contracts and invoices that your boss had sent, with firm instruction that they all must be completed by the time the sun sets. tom was sat in a beauty chair, gushing to his hair stylist how perfect of a mum you’ll be, while you poured yourself a fifth cup of tea. you’d forgotten what a personal phone is, you’d forgotten what daylight looks like and you’d forgotten you were meant to be eating for two, letting the occasional lunch slip your mind. it was nothing new when you email notification sounded, the ping filling the room and making you roll your eyes, yet again. although, further research into the new email made your heart flutter and mouth smile, fully aware it was not from your boss, or let alone, any work colleague.
what about isaac for a boy?
or
evangeline for a girl?
love you soooooOooOooOOoOoO much
ps remember to eat
Tumblr media
as a well known instagram poster, it was when you decided to go live that you decided tom was a total doofus, as if you hadn’t considered that summary beforehand. speaking to the zillion and one incoming messages, you answered as many questions as you could, trying to ignore the blue tick that kept appearing in the comments, bold capital letters threatening to take over the screen.

BC MY MUM
in the midst, was a thousand and one people commenting how cute he was, only spurring him on to comment more names and as much as you tired to ignore it, you couldn’t. it was hard to answer any normal questions, your entire feed flooded with baby names and comments about tom and of course you weren’t mad, by any stretch of the imagination, but for once you though instagram might pull you back into normal life.

LIKE THAT CAT
Tumblr media
you finally gave in one night, agreeing to join tom at one of his live interviews and although you wouldn’t be appearing on the screen as such, you felt nervous for being in front of such a large audience and crew. tom had stayed with you as much as he could, before hair and make up beckoned him but even then, you stayed with harrison, who was able to calm you nerves and keep your mind occupied. 
tom, of course, appeared on the guest sofa looking like a complete snack as always, leaving you pining behind the camera. it began with many questions about the film, but when the guests had drunk a couple of sips of whiskey, the collars started to loosen and questions started to flow.
“so, tom, we have a name generator....” the host pulled out a fish bowl, full of folded up pieces of paper. “and we think, whatever you pull out you should name your unborn child...”
tom immediately looked for you, finding you just behind the camera man with a shocked, but amused expression. when you nodded, tom knew it was more than acceptable for him to play along, giving everyone what they wanted. his hand dipped deep into the bowl as he secretly wished for a name that he hoped would not only be super cute, but one that you'd already chosen together. he pulled out a single paper, the crowd and host on the edge of their sit as he unfolded. 
“thomas jr... really?!”

Catch up on Love and Scotch
Masterlists: [Hollywood U] || [Red Carpet Diaries]  || [Baby Hunt]  || [Love & Scotch HWU/OH]  ||  [#HollywoodHacks HWU/LH]
Characters: Alex, Thomas Hunt, Ethan Ramsey, Ellie Shephard (OH: MC) Notes: Goodbye @choicesmaychallenge​; @kinda-iconic​
This takes place a couple of hours after:  “the New Amazon”. Ethan showed up at Hunt’s house in LA unannounced and unexpected. Alex thinks he’s finally tired of running and is ready to admit that he has feelings for Ellie.
☆  ☆   ☆   ☆   ☆
Alex found Hunt and Ethan in his study each nursing a scotch in their hands. Her gaze shifted to the bottle between them. It was not nearly down enough for her plan to work. 
She retreated to the wine cellar, heading straight to Hunt’s prized liquor cabinet. It’s not like he would serve Ethan anything less than quality; but, there was quality and then there were the bottles in this cabinet. They could always switch back to what they were drinking as the night went on. 
Alex gently removed a 30-year-old bottle of Macallan. At least, it wasn’t his oldest or most expensive. And, he had a second bottle of it. It was also for a good cause. If love weren’t enough reason to open a 30-year-old bottle of scotch, what else was? She knew that with enough liquid courage she could get Ethan to admit exactly how he felt about Ellie and once he did that, he could never take it back. 
Alex paused in the doorway, watching Ethan and Hunt top off their glasses. “Perfect,” she thought. He’ll have to finish that first. We’re well on our way now.
Ethan sat in LAX the next day massaging his temples as he waited to board his flight. The laughter of the children playing by the window watching the planes take off was excruciating. Apparently, the head of the diagnostic department leaving when the hospital was amid a financial crisis did not send the best message to board members nor the community, especially when a new high profile client arrived looking for the now-famous doctor. If it weren’t for Naveen’s demanding phone call, he would not be up and about to endure a six-hour flight back to Boston. 
The ding of his phone alerting him to a new text message felt like an icepick to his head. He couldn’t remember the last time he regretted drinking scotch. 
“Goodbye, Ethan,” Alex texted. “Have a safe flight. See you back here in a few months with Ellie 😉”
“I thought last night would have convinced you to let it go,” Ethan replied. 
“Do you even remember what happened last night?” Alex retorted.
Fragments of images filled his thoughts, but most of it was a blur. 
“To start, we stopped you from drunk dialing Ellie,” Alex began. 
Ethan thought back trying to remember the previous night. 
He took out his phone attempting multiple times before successfully unlocking it. He squinted as he scrolled through his blurry contact list.  
Before he could press call, Hunt had placed his hand over the screen. “Easy there.” He took the phone out of Ethan’s reach. “Not like this.”
“This is what she wants,” Ethan pointed accusatory at Alex. “All she’s ever wanted was for me to tell Ellie how I feel. I thought Alex gets what she wants. Tell him!”
“Not like this,” Hunt repeated calmly, shifting away from Ethan. “All Alex has ever wanted was for you to be happy. This solves nothing.”
Alex watched uneasily as Ethan grew enraged. He poured himself more scotch, drinking it without hesitation. “She deserves the truth, Ethan, but not like this. Not when you’re in this state.”
“You did this to me,” he growled moving closer, towering over her. “You want to help me? Leave me alone. Stay away from me! I don’t need your help!”
“My apologies for my behavior. I was out of line. I was a guest in your home, you didn’t deserve that,” he answered, cringing at the memories that were starting to come back to him. “Thank you for making sure I didn’t go through with that call.”
“There’s more.” Before he could respond Alex texted him a video. His mouth fell open as he watched himself confess to everything Alex had ever said. 
“Enough! Fine, you want me to tell you the truth?” Ethan grumbled, raising his voice. His eyes burned with fire, through a pained expression. “The truth is Ellie drives me to distraction. I think about her all the time. Her smile, her laugh, her mind, her compassion. Every moment of every day, Ellie’s there like a cancer I can’t rid myself of. My body is flooded with dopamine and oxytocin at the mere thought of her. Of course, I want to be with her, but I can’t! She deserves a better man than I.”
Hunt interrupted off-screen: “Maybe she needs to make that decision for herself, my friend. She deserves a choice and it may just turn out to be the best thing to happen to either of you.”
“If I let her make that decision,” his voice wavered as he swallowed hard. His hands ran through his hair as he turned away from them. “If I leave it up to her, she’d choose me and I would never be able to stop myself once she did.”
“Then don’t,” Alex encouraged. 
Ethan stared at his screen not sure what to say. He definitely didn’t remember any of that, but the warmth flooding him now proved he meant every word. His hand caressed thoughtfully over his jaw wondering what he had done. 
“Ellie deserves the truth,” Alex texted again. “You both deserve to be happy.”
She continued: “Pretending this isn’t happening is hurting you both. Please trust me, Ethan.”
“Okay,” he replied.
“Okay, you’ll tell her?! 😲😊😍” She answered.
“You’re a good friend,” he admitted. “Hunt is a lucky man.”
“What does that mean?!!!!!” 
“Thank you, Alex.” 
Ethan took a deep breath and typed out another text. “Rookie, can we talk tonight? I believe I owe you a dinner and an explanation.”
