“But Garfield!”
Eleven x Fem!reader
(A/N: been thinking abt writing this, I’m so hungry, also I love Garfield. Also never proof read, written at 5 am)
♡︎ Garfield.
That fat orange cat that loves lasagna but hates mondays. You hate that cat so much, but your girlfriend absolutely can’t get enough of him. She has so many shirts, plushies, and in all just merchandise. And you best believe she keeps all the comic strips. And unfortunately you feed into her obsession with buying her Garfield stuff.
Right now she is dragging you to family video to go ask Steve or Robin if they got Garfield. “Hurry y/n! We don’t need it to not be there!” El’s smile is so big as she rushes you to hurry up for Garfield. You def think she loves Garfield more than you. Her keychains are all hitting up against each other as she speed walks to family video. And of course one of the keychains is of Garfield, but she also has some other ones, such as a matching one that you have on your bag that you made for her, she also has a strawberry shortcake one, she also has one of a roller skate, and one of a care bear. “Oh! And also we have to stop by and see if there’s any free newspapers, there’s gonna be a Garfield comic strip!” El says slightly skipping in her step as y’all are coming up to family video. “I guess we can, if I could get a kiss in return.” You tell el turning your head to her. You guys both stop really quickly and she gives you a kiss on your cheek. “There you go y/n! Now cmon!” El says with a huge smile on her face and slight blush on her cheeks.
You grab the door handle opening up the door for el to go in. “Hey guys!” Robin says from the counter as she sees you guys walk in. You both give Robin a small hi before walking up to the counter. “Robin, do you have Garfield?” El asks slightly jumping in her spot. You lay your head down on the counter out of annoyance cuz of the dumb orange cat. “Uhhh let me go che- actually let me go make Steve do it.” Robin says as she yells at Steve to go look for Garfield. “Cmon lets go look around pretty girl.” You say as you get up and grab els arm and start to drag her to look around.
After you guys look around a bit you guys go back up to the counter as Steve comes back. “Sorry Girls, Theres no new Garfield, but we do have the new Care Bears movie.” Steve says while holding a Care Bears vhs. “B-but Garfield! Do you guys know when it’s coming?” El whines with slight sadness in her tone. “Eh, might take a week or two probably, I don’t really know, family video usually gets new releases late.” Steve explains leaning against the counter. El sighs and slump her shoulders in sadness. You take a notice before you slip your hand in her hand and give it a squeeze. “Alright thank you Steve, we’ll come again, please let us know when it does come, also tell Robin we say bye!” You tell Steve before you turn around and walk out of family video dragging a sad el with you.
“Cmon pretty girl, smile a bit, how ‘bout i buy you a new Garfield plushie, alright?” You give a small smile as you look at el. She instantly brightens up and puts a smile on her face. “Omg yes pls!! I’m not sad anymore see? Cmon hurry let’s go get Garfield plushie!” She says also jumping in place again and starting to drag you to the nearest store that sold Garfield plushies. You may hate that fat orange cat that your girlfriend seems to love so much, but you do love seeing your girlfriend happy so that makes spending money on that fat orange cat all worth it.

Levi x reader: you have a panic attack
kk so i decided to write this cuz I’ve been having a ton of panic attacks lately and ig I just wanted to write out my own comfort
Tumblr media
You sit in the corner of your dark room, crying, shaking, it’s hard to breathe, the knot in your stomach tightens the anxiety too much to bare. After what feels like hours of crying (it was only a few minutes) you feel a hand on your shoulder “what happened y/n?” You recognize the voice to be the one and only captain Levi, you were embarrassed to be seen like this so you don’t respond he has never been good with words so he hesitates but pulls you to his chest as he gently strokes your hair trying to comfort you. “Everything will be okay, trust me…” he tries to gently soothe you as you continue to cry you listen to his heartbeat and his gentle voice which surprised you due to his normal cold tone, it calms you. “It breaks me to see you like this, normally I wouldn’t care if it were another person but your special, seeing you sad, I hate it, I hate it with every fiber of my being. You showed me light in the darkest of times, looking forward to seeing your bright smile everyday, it’s all worth it” you were surprised by his words, you’ve been crushing on the cold captain for quite some time now hearing these words makes your face heat up, a blush spreads across your face, glad that he can’t see you in this dark, he continues to speak. “You give me a reason to wake up in this shitty world, the world isn’t quite so hellish with you in it.” He pulls away and looks at you. “Your also the only one who can clean properly, and make decent tea” he hooks a finger under your chin making you look at him “I love you y/n don’t ever forget it” you’re shocked at his statement he loved you?! You pinched yourself to make sure this was real your thoughts stop all at once as you feel his lips on yours in a soft kiss. He then kisses your cheeks, forehead, nose, tears, and back to your lips “I love you brat” “I love you too captain” “it’s Levi to you” “Levi…” his name rolls off your tongue effortlessly “now what happened, you didn’t have a panic attack for no reason” “j- jean and eren were yelling and being loud” “I’ll kill those brats” “you don’t need to” “Tch-“
and I can’t think anymore cuz I tend to have terrible writers block but it’s fine… it’s not… my life is chaos but ANYWAYS imma go chill with my kitten her name is Janessa, I named her after one of my staff at Havenwood academy, when I went to treatment…
Tumblr media
This is my baby, Janessa. She’s about 2 months I got her after my other cat died, Maggy was hit by a car in the road I miss her a lot but I’m not replacing her, I’m simply making a little more room in my heart for Janessa. Have a great day/night remember that you are perfect the way you are and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise ❤️💕💖 and btw sorry that it’s super short…

Mk uhhhh Middlepaw backstory time? I think it’s time for that (as in I wish to share the magic words that cause maximum emotional damage to my little child here so that YOU TOO can cause them emotional damage if you so wish. Cuz I enjoy making my ocs miserable and I swear I’m not a psychopath… also I feel like I should prob just explain their backstory along with those magic words)
There’s also a tldr at the end cuz this is really long
Mk, starting at the begining:
Middlepaw was born outside the clan to two rogue parents. They also had two siblings named Eldest and Youngest (you can tell their parents loved them very much naming them after their birth order /j). They didn’t really stay in any one spot long and tended to travel around a bunch, eventually wandering near Mommyclan. They figured it might be nice to live in a larger group where everyone kinda helps take care of everyone. Plus Youngest was sick and none of them knew much about healing, so they kinda needed Mommyclan’s help anyway
They wound up joining the clan and while the parents refused to take warrior names, they did change their kit’s names to fit in with the clan (Eldestkit, Middlekit, and Youngestkit). The parents would constantly fuss over Youngestkit and didn’t really give much attention to their other kits. Eldestkit was pretty much only given attention when being told to watch their siblings or see if the elders or anyone needed anything. They were pretty much just given chores and responsibilities
Middlekit on the other paw, was pretty much just ignored. Whenever they tried to get their parent’s attention, they were just told to go away, or that their parents were busy, or to go play with some other kits or something. At first they would directly try to get attention (mostly from their parents, but also sometimes from other cats), but slowly stopped doing that as it didn’t work with their parents who also didn’t like their kit pestering other clan members. “Stop annoying our clanmates. You don’t want us to get kicked out because of you, do you? Youngest kit would die if we got kicked out, you know that right?”
They stopped pretty quickly after that and instead tried to get attention other ways. They practiced “catching prey” (pouncing on rocks and moss and stuff), climbing, running, etc. They became a bit of a tryhard and wanted to be the best at like everything, that way maybe someone would acknowledge them for being good at something. They got frustrated a lot though, seeing as you can’t really just flip a switch and instantly be good at everything. They’d get upset when other kits beat them in a race or play fight or were just better than them at anything. Eldestkit would try to comfort them when this happened, but it didn’t work much. Middlekit wound up deciding that they just aren’t good at anything and are useless. They stopped really doing things and just kinda sat in the nursery and watched other cats. (This was towards the end of them being a kit. They were almost 6 moons old at this point. Youngestkit also got better at some point near the end of “tryhard Middlekit” and the begining of “sad Middlekit”)
Middlekit and their siblings were apprenticed (this reminds me Middlepaw needs a mentor lol) and lots of pressure was put on Eldestpaw by their parents to pretty much be perfect. “You need to do better. If we’re not useful, do you think they’re gonna keep us around? You need to be better than the apprentices who were born here or what reason will they have not to throw us out?” Youngestpaw was babied and given a lot of slack by their parents who used their former illness as an excuse to treat them better than their siblings (it was really just favoritism). Aaaand Middlepaw… who is Middlepaw? Yea, they basically never interacted with Middlepaw at this point and honestly kinda forgot that they were their kid unless someone metioned it and then they were like, “Oh, yeah! Middlepaw! Of course! We love Middlepaw! They’re so uh… good. They’re a good kid… yea :)” and then prob changed the topic to one of their other children
About a moon after being apprenticed, Eldestpaw, Youngestpaw, and their parents went on a “family walk” (without Middlepaw ofc cuz who’s Middlepaw? Eldestpaw mentioned that Middlepaw wasn’t there actually, but the parents were just like, “Eh. We don’t want them here. You two are the better children. Besides, they barely talk to us. They’re basically not even in the family anymore,” blaming Middlepaw for the distance between them and their family) and uh… they just never came back from the “walk”
When Middlepaw realized they weren’t coming back and had gone on a “walk,” they shut down even more than they had before. If anyone showed concern for what had happened to their family, Middlepaw would just tell them that their family is fine. “It’s just what they do,” is prob about the most explanation they’d give, but they seem to know what happened
For about a moon, they just kinda moped around. They would do things they were told to do, but only about the bare minimum before going to find a nice corner to be sad in. They didn’t really put much effort into anything and especially didn’t talk to or interact with anyone who didn’t start the interaction first. Even then, they’d try to end the interaction as quickly as possible
During the “sad Middlekit” bit, they also started talking to objects a bit, but it was only a little bit here and there and not nearly as much as they do now. They began a lot of their odd habits once their family left as kind of a way to cope with feeling so lonely and they started talking to things that weren’t cats a lot more than they previously did
More recently, they’ve slowly stopped moping so much and don’t try to end social interactions. They still usually don’t start them, but they will try to keep them going once someone else starts them. They’re also much less of a “sad quiet” now and more of just a “doesn’t have friends” kind of quiet. Also, they kinda tried to hide things like talking to themselves and objects before, but now they don’t kinda in hopes of someone noticing that they exist because of it
Also, their parents would try to kinda hide how they treated Middlepaw and Eldestpaw from others and if anyone ever said anything about that to them, they’d just try to brush it off like, “oh, it was a one time thing,” “tough love, you know?” “sometimes you just gotta be a little hard on them. It doesn’t phase them though”
Aaand uh yea. Btw, those magic words I was talking about in the begining are just anything along the lines of “go away,” “stop being annoying,” “I’m busy right now,” etc. Pretty much anything that resembles an excuse their parents would use to get them to go away
Tldr: Middlepaw had crappy parents who ended up abandoning them and leaving them emotionally fucked up and that’s why they have all their weird habits and don’t really start social interactions much :)
Why do I do this?

Ghosts and Greenery:
Sakumo being forced to watch as his son breaks around the edges and all but throws himself on his opponents blades despite never turning his weapons against himself. Not like Sakumo did. Never that.
Sakumo not telling him that even when Kakashi was home he spent as much time watching over Naruto as Sakumo himself did. Sakumo watching Naruto walk up to an ANBU in a hound mask and ask why he felt so sad.
Ughhhhhh. Right in my Hatake shaped feels. Those are sensitive you know.
one of their own has been left alone in a village of earth and trees when the sand and reefs have always been his birthright.
Red haired spirits traveling away from watery graves and leaving sun bleached bones unattended on sandy beaches for the first time in centuries.
Little naru hefting around a comically large flowerpot to give to kakashi “cuz orange flowers make me happy so now you’ll be happy too!
Plant growing competitions!!!
little Naruto would probably be really uncomfortable with human touch at first because the only kind he’s ever know is cold and sends shudders down even his spine sometimes. Warmth is something he’s always craved, but it’s lack has made it feel like too much. Though oddly enough, it’s only in certain situations. Lord thirds hand in his hair, Mizuki’s resting between his shoulder blades. Too much.
I hate everything. How DARE that hurt so much. Just fuckkkk
The only time warmth felt comfortable was when he pressed up against Hound-San, who felt enough like Uncle Sakumo that Naruto could forget the too hot feeling that made shoulder pats or side hugs feel so… weird.
Madras plant is called ash bringer and Tobiramas is snow cat
Madara called him a frigid cunt
And poor Naruto who already can’t focus is watching The Days of Our Afterlives play out in real time in front of him
Accidental rainforest cafe and stoned tree frog ref
Hashirama and Naruto hold funerals for the dead plants with the ghosts their named after crying in the background. Whenever a new generation is sent off, they get a speech for their “bravery and valor” and are thanked for their “sacrifice for the cause” which is making Kakashi happy.
Kakashi gets a fake plant after ten gens of ghost funerals and ghost-village wide send offs
They both do the knitting with senbon. Naruto makes the most garish neon sweaters that are so unfairly comfortable. Kakashi probably does a dog pattern. Omfg Pakkun with a little old man sweater
Sakumo is fully sold on the pair of Kiba-and-Akamaru taking care of his youngest pup for the rest of his life.
After the tenth WWE Smackdown between the two of them Naruto sits them down like toddlers and make them talk it out. Half of the time every week is dedicated to the Tobirama and Madara show because they never stop.
Sakumo having beef with a 13ish yr old (Rin) and the 13is yr old having beef with him
Epic rap battles of history: Konoha edition is giving me life
Naruto still being scared of ghost stories
Tobirama: I’m this close to killing you again Uchiha. I doubt your brother would even try to stop me considering how you’ve been treating him as of late. I also take issue with the tone and volume you’ve been speaking to him with. The way you place emphasis on his name in conversation is likewise unacceptable you pint sized, inconsiderate, rat faced bast-
while waiting for kakashi to show up for team meetings, absently says Hatake Kakashi three times (an easy way to get the ghosts attention) and the second he’s done Kakashi shows up. He starts doing it more and somehow every time it works.
Bites all of this
!!!!

TO BE FAIR; I don’t blame you wanting to just stick to arc one at all, it’s not just the quality that drops in the books but the fandom just tends to cause drama left and right with any headcanon (or character) anyone seems to just wants to be having fun with, because it seems headcanons are only allowed to be limited to certain areas: for example I can’t stand ‘sad boi xxxtacanion (w/e that artist’s name be) hawkfrost headcanons anymore. I’m yet to wait for the day somebody actually makes him more unhinged/have his own motivations, or legit just be some rando cat that isn’t related to tigerass, (tigerstar can fuck off I’m sick of him.)
There’s also just, a lot of interesting lore from arc one that just got dropped entirely but I won’t go on T—T
you're so right tho, and i agree 100%
Tigerstar was a fun character tbh, just maximum bastard energy, but they really should have just let him die tbh! Tho I gotta be honest, I was one of those SadBoiHawkFrost people initially but I got bored of him so fast after realising how most of them are just "he's mentally ev-ill" and like........yikes.
Even when there are good takes on Hawkfrost he's just like.... Kiara voice: "you will never be Tigerstar". Biased againts him so cuz hes attached to people that bother me and also TPB > TNP clapping emoji
(also as a footnot, the lake territories suck ass, like how are disabled cats supposed to cross the bridge??? like hello?)

2022 MOVIE OF THE WEEK #35
Tumblr media
die hard. can you believe i had never seen this movie until this year’s holiday season? cuz i can’t really believe it. i went through such a bruce willis phase when i was younger, i used to own the dvd set of moonlighting and i watched him on friends and in movies with matthew perry and the fifth element was a classic in my house...somehow this one just escaped me, i think because my mom’s Action Men tastes were very specifically adrian paul and chuck norris. whereas mine can probably be best described as ‘aw shucks schlubby charm,’ dudes who just seem more normal until they are required to be badasses. bruce willis, david harbour...i can’t remember what other actor i realized he reminds me of while watching this, but i know i told leander and was pleased by the realization, so i’m sure there are more examples.
anyway, this was so not on my radar; i didn’t even know what it was about other than through cultural osmosis. when a movie is mentioned as often as this one, you Know It even when you don’t. though there is a specific kind of joy that comes from finally seeing the line ‘yippee ki-yay, motherfucker’ delivered in its original context. that was fun. 
until pretty recently, i didn’t know alan rickman was the antagonist--that was a large part of why i watched. and boy does he make a meal out of this role. a significant chunk of this movie was just me thinking about what a great actor he is in this. his line deliveries are so delicious that i made a mental note just to mention ‘ho...ho...ho.’ as something nobody else could have had as much fun with. i was truly sad when his character finally died, because of course that ending was always going to come, but i didn’t want it to. the mark of a good villain is actually wanting more of them when you’re not supposed to like them in the first place, and he was an excellent villain--clever and funny with his own moral code, perfect to face off against bruce willis’s unexpected hero.
besides alan rickman, the other reason i decided to watch this (with @actuallylukedanes​ and their fiance who had both seen it before) was that it was featured in an episode of you are good, a movie podcast i like, which meant i’d already heard about the plot and figured that might help me enjoy it more. (normally if they discuss movies i intend to watch, i skip those episodes to avoid spoilers, but i never planned to see this one. lol.) anyway, they watched it as one of their christmas picks, and i knew there was a big debate about whether or not it counts as a christmas movie.
now that i’ve seen it, i feel like the debate is settled and it is OBVIOUSLY a christmas movie, no question. it is in my opinion a movie about a bunch of people (including john mcclain) having the worst christmas of their lives, and there was something i found oddly comforting about that. with my shiny new holiday depression this year, i wasn’t in the mood for any holiday movies--but i would rewatch this one every christmas, because like any good christmas movie there is a party and people remember that family is the most important thing. but UNLIKE other christmas movies, it has alan rickman taking his craft super seriously while bruce willis is in his softest and prettiest young phase, which i adore. and things explode.
(i also need us all to move on from this ‘is it a christmas movie?’ debate so people can be converted to the cult of my much more underappreciated christmas fave, batman returns. tim burton said gotham christmas but make it creepy! and michelle pfieffer learned better whip skills than harrison ford just to manifest it. the true spirit of christmas is being reanimated by cats, and using your new nine lives to flirt with a wealthy orphan while seeking vengeance on anyone who wronged you.)
i’m sure i could go on, but you can tell how old this movie is from the poster up there--i was barely ALIVE when this came out, lol. so i am very late to the party and i doubt a ton of people need me going on and on about it. besides alan rickman and bruce willis, i didn’t know most of the cast, but they all did a good job, there was at least one plot thread that didn’t go the way i expected, and i was pleasantly surprised by that. this movie’s racial politics make me reeeeally uncomfortable, but it’s not at all unusual for its time. the one honorable mention i’d give in casting is to the actor i grew up watching on family matters who plays a central role in helping john survive. he’s portrayed as a black hero, but he can’t just be one because he’s john’s emotional support system throughout the movie--no, he has to become a ‘real’ cop again by shooting a guy. at the same time, you have two major comic relief characters, and both are young black men; one driving john’s limo and the other handling technology for the villain. there’s a same sort of ‘balance’ with the movie’s two asian characters, the seemingly kind company owner who’s murdered early on versus a team member of the villain whose role is also tiny.
the movie is also trying to say stuff (or is just accidentally saying stuff based on the era) around post-soviet american perspectives, but i feel like the racial element sticks out way more because it goes uncommented on. like since it’s clearly not something the plot thinks about, these choices are even more noticeable and important because they reflect the buried stuff.
idk, i just have a lot of feelings about the fact that john’s friend over the radio couldn’t be really redeemed unless he used his gun. or about the fact that he and john are both cops in the first place, so even this sort of ‘everyman’ action movie is promoting the idea that while the fbi and other bureaucracy is useless or will even make things worse, good cops are the only hope we have. 
and his marital reconciliation--i basically just threw up my hands with that one, because i don’t think a near-death experience on christmas will automatically save your marriage. but at the same time, if your wife’s problem with you is that you wouldn’t follow her to her new job, and you finally show up there and save a whole building full of people while she’s in it...then yeah, okay, whatever. maybe that’s all it takes. i mean, if i were her, i’d probably be willing to consider applying for jobs back in new york after that anyway. they’ve definitely earned some kind of happy ending.
in conclusion, i loved this movie. it is an action movie classic in the truest sense of how that felt in the 80s and 90s, and it features bruce willis at his finest and alan rickman briefly doing an american accent and a whole very huge lot of broken glass. broken glass is basically a character in this movie. die hard was an excellent christmas choice for me this year and i’m glad i was welcome to join in the watching. :)

15 questions for 15 mutuals
TYSM @sewerkingcharlie FOR THE TAG !!! i love doing things like this teehee
are you named after anyone?
my legal name is the same as a film/musical character (my parents maintain that wasn’t the entire reason). currently irl i go by just the first letter of that name, but the name i WANT also happens to be a film character (coincidental, but i was happy when i realised)
zoot is the muppet’s band’s saxophonist and i chose him over gonzo (who is technically my fave muppet, beloved thing <3) cuz i also play the sax.
do you have any kids?
nope! and i don’t want any - ofc i can’t predict how future me will feel, but i’ve genuinely never felt/understood the desire to have a child (have felt exactly one paternal pang). still love kids, just not for me!
do you use sarcasm a lot?
i have no idea what’s “a lot”? i enjoy jokes and bits (particularly with my sibling) that usually entail sarcasm, so technically yes, but in a silly/exaggerated way.
first thing you notice about people?
i think i’d say what they’re wearing, cuz personal style can be so cool and varied. general vibe/personality is a close second tho (and ofc first if i’m not physically seeing the person). neurodivergent brain sometimes picks up on vibes TOO much tho-
what’s your eye colour?
like. green? not bright green tho.
scary movies or happy endings?
i’m not really a scary movie watcher*, so happy endings!! small rant, but i’ve noticed people often view happy endings as less inspired than sad/shocking ones, which just is NOT true and really frustrates me. a happy ending can be just as if not more thought provoking and empathetic and realistic !! pls love joy in media more !!
*i have seen all of one horror movie BUT i am a huge fan of uk tv series inside no. 9. it’s so SO good and the only real “scary content” i’ve ever been passionate about.
special talents?
if i lie on my stomach, i can bend my back and legs up and forwards far enough to touch the tip of my nose with my toes :D
what are your hobbies?
drawing and crocheting are the biggest i guess, but i sometimes bake or sew (tho that’s mostly diy-ing rather than big projects). i rly love making bottle cap badges and i used to paint patches too, if that counts. consuming media at a rate of knots is my full time passion /hj.
have any pets?
YES. YES I DO. I COULD GO INTO GREAT DETAIL. IF YOU WANT ME TOO. JUST DM. I WILL SEND YOU AN ESSAY. tldr is i have three cats currently. MY cat, effectively, is a tiny girl cat called (lady) cleo and i adore her <3
what sports to you play/have you played?
as a kid, i swam for several years and was goalkeeper for my school’s girl’s football team for a bit (i was tiny…the uniform and gloves were massive…,), and i always ALWAYS did loads on sports day. did netball in secondary but quit cuz i hated it (the other girls were real assholes) and also badminton after school club (my friend and i just did rallies non competitively, it was great).
i think sport gave me gender euphoria when i was a kid, but as a teen it did the opposite. i’d love to start swimming again in the future and i wanna take up boxing (got some rage to get out my system teehee). i TRY to go to the gym weekly.
how tall are you?
5’4…my mum’s short genes messed up my dad’s average/tall genes :|
favourite subject in school?
DRAMA. always. in primary i loved creative writing, and for the most of secondary i really enjoyed maths. i ADORED geography in secondary (about out 2 my geog teacher….i miss u sir…), but it was too much for me at alevel. i really enjoyed film studies alevel tho!!but yeah. drama forever <3
dream job?
i guess acting ?? but also not ?? i have a very unsteady grasp on what i want my future to look like, and job is not the focus of my plans. i’d love love love to act professionally, but i’d also be just as content with working in cafes forever (what i do currently) and being silly and trans and making art on the internet. i really don’t know. but that’s okay <3
i uhhh don’t have 15 mutuals yet 🧍‍♂️ i will just tag all of y’all tho - u don’t have to participate ofc !!! and i think everyone should do this that wants too !!!
@boodlesofdoodles @beesallhail @cloveclump @cactusfool @certifiedeccentric @angelic-charlie-kelly @emodennis @a-nice-egg-offering

🙉- Worst Tangled Song?
💞- Which character do you relate to the most?
💢- Which character do you not relate to the most?
💥- A big a opinion you have related to the Tangled movie/series?
We all know Cass is my gurl from now until forever! But I also love her smokin hot dad where she definitely got her looks from,Hector and her aunt Adira.😌
Nigel. He can go die in a hole for all I care.
Moonstone 1000%!!!! I have built SO MUCH lore around that opal.
Season 2. Gave us all a lot to work with when it comes to lore and it Twas sad that it Twas not touched on enough in the next season.
Probably HTTYD and the book series the Wingfeather saga. They are both heavily based on dragons so I’d put a WHOLE ASS BUNCH of Saponin lore in there.
I can’t pick one animal 😭😭😭. My number ones would have to be pascal,owl,little big guy,and Hector’s pets who I have named Raynan (rhino),Kinzey & Thanatos (bear cats)
Any next gen aus and anything involving the brotherhood!
Cassandra’s adventure suit and her armor in season two. And raps and Eugene’s outfits in season three. I also like the redesign outfits I’ve made for Cass and Andrew for my next gen au.
Probably Rapunzel’s coronation gown. It just doesn’t feel like her with the big poofy skirt. And Eugene’s outfit for rap’s coronation
I have WAAAAAAAYY too many 😭😭😭. Here are some of them: Hector has ADHD,Cass is near sighted and also has ADHD but she’s medicated (idk if they had that but let’s just say they do),varian and Edmund are both autistic,Stan and Cass are cousins (the cap being Stan’s uncle),Quirin is the oldest of the brotherhood,Edmund is the second oldest after him is Adira and Hector is the youngest. Hector is a Capricorn and is born on Christmas eve (is there a specific reason y I headcanon that? No) Hector and Eugene’s mom are half siblings,Cap had a wife when he adopted Cass but they got divorced,and then Cass’s “mom” died when Cass was 16. Willow has ADHD,and her and the Cap used to be a thing. I also headcanon that the Cap’s name is Caleb. Adira and Eugene’s mom used to date,earlier in high school. Hector stole his rhino from a circus that was passing through the DK,and he found the bear cats in the woods. Cass found Owl as a bb chick that fell out of his nest and was hurt and this happened not too long after her mom died so Owl just became her emotional support animal as well as her fighting bird. Andrew is dyslexic,oh and Quirin is color blind.
Idk ig Cass but I don’t like how they wrote it in the series. But my second would have to be Varian cuz ngl that would also make sense. But yet again I’m also interested with the moon!Eugene au.
I need to read more but so far Blood of my brother by AMax76✨😌✨
2018,when season one just ended. I did watch the short film when it came out but,then I just kinda forgot abt it😅. So yah I officially joined in 2018
Saw the teaser on Disney channel.
My top three should be, 1) ready as I’ll ever be 2)waiting in the wings 3)nothing left to lose
Through it all and living the dream.
At the beginning:raps. By the end? Cass,Eugene and Varian.
Fred.
Again I have too many😅. But I’ll try to keep this one shorter. IMO we should’ve had more lore on the DK and especially Saporia. I really would’ve liked to see them really dive into the motives of why they wanted to take Corona back. I also think that Ready as I’ll ever be should’ve gotten a reprise ont eh finale I stead of us getting through it all,cuz let’s be real that song was not it.

Follow up of my thought on the characters I’m around the episode  171/ 263 ( help me ), here my thought on the character so far :
c!Tommy : a bit more likeable + still too selfish like obviously your bf will not automatically choose you over a whole nation full of people + can’t wait for him to get exiled and grow up
c!Tubbo : Poor boy + already so much trauma + actually scare me because I can’t wrap my finger around his goals, his personality, his moral compass ???
c!Dream : fully psychopath + is freaking everywhere + GEoRgE iS tHe New KiNg now + does he really care about his smp anymore ? Cuz really looks like he just want to cause mayhem + not very likeable anymore:(
c!Sapnap : Stop fucking killing pet + wants to be teacher pet + being used by said teacher, kinda sad :(
c!George : Teacher pet for no reason ( cough cough ) + just sleep all day long + and when he wakes up I just wish he goes back to sleep because he obviously don’t know what he is talking about
c!Ponk : Stop killing cat + pretty chill beside that + kinda like where he lives
c!Alyssa : no more here :(
c!Punz : The only good builders of the dream smp land ? ( I mean they are 4 )
c!Purpled : Didn’t see him for a while? + seems lost
c!Wilbur / ghostbur : Joker arc + Iove the acting tho / have it coming his way + still a bit sad , especially with the whole blue stuff + this bad boy can fit so much regret + get your shit together and face it
c!Fundy : Poor boy + the size of the those daddy issues + bonus abandonment issues
c!Eret : The only and real king idc + appreciate the effort to make up to l’manberg
c!Quackity : still homeless BUT now a political man + just get out of a toxic relationship, u go boy ! + tries to do big thing, emphasis on try + wants to do go thing tho
C!Nikki : still sweet + but need to kick some ass + with puffy:D
c!Philza : the most breath taking entry on the server omg + love the fact that this dude just here having **3** kids like it’s nothing ( also im at the part where wilbur/ techno and tommy are canonically brothers but they really dont act like ) + “”neutral””
c!Jschlatt : Best acting like this bad guy laugh ? Priceless + toxic bitch tho
c!Karl : Still has the impression that the character is still in progress ? If that make sens ? + is a weather vane + I’m realllyyyy hyped to see the whole deal with the tales of the smp + best skin best skin best skin

10% left again. So Breezepelt is one of the survivors and you can imagine the issues that causes! While the fight is going on he’s kinda revelling in it, he’s watching like that image of the guy looking through the window going ‘haha… YES’ if you’ve ever seen it. But then, Nightcloud is killed. And his mommy is the only cat he really cared about in the whole world at the end of it all, even when he tried to convince himself he’s been wronged by everyone in his life he can’t emotionally detach himself from her and he has a kinda oh shit moment. So he attacks the DF warrior he saw kill her and gets destroyed because he’s just kinda scrambling in a kinda desperate grief he doesn’t fully understand, but he’s alive! When Ferncloud is doing her run around the lake she only runs into about half of the survivors initially, and Breezepelt is not one of them but he sees Harespring who she did find heading in the direction he was told to and he kinda follows him to figure out what he’s doing and ends up with the survivor group. And Breezepelt is like THE major point of tension in the group in the beginning. There’s a lot of arguing over if they should chase him out because of how he was by far the worst DF trainee and if they did that shouldn’t they kick all the DF trainees out and they really should retain the small numbers they have even if he isn’t useful? Breezepelt doesn’t help his case because he is very injured but also a dick and refuses to talk to anyone or let them get close and aggressively refuses any medical treatment, which works for Jayfeather cuz he didn’t want to waste resources on this guy anyways. So the cats are arguing more like he’s just wasting food sitting here and he’s not even grateful we should just leave him, but if we leave him to die will we be any better than the DF cats and do we really need more unnecessary death right now?? It is eventually decided to let him stay but everyone just kind of pretends he isn’t there since he doesn’t talk to anyone anyways. Eventually he does accept some medical treatment, because he realises that if he dies he will certainly end up in the dark forest and after attacking one of their warriors at the very last second he’s like they’ll kill me if I go there and then I’ll be dead forever oh Starclan I don’t wanna disappear. Jayfeather is not happy about being forced to treat this dick, they definitely hate eachother the most. I mean Jayfeather was one of the main cats Breezepelt wanted dead and he’s pissed that he’s one of the few survivors, while Jayfeather does not want him around because he was on the side of the people who murdered his entire family and everyone else families he doesn’t understand why they’re keeping this guy around. When they eventually decide to follow Firestar’s directions on where to go he comes and as Morningkit (name I gave to the unnamed kit) grows old enough to be a curious kit they’re like ‘who is this grumpy man covered in scars and why does no one even look at him?’ So they start spending a lot of time bugging him and while he hates it at first this is the most contact with another cat he’s had in forever at this point and they’re the only cat who doesn’t hate him here so he just ends up reluctantly tolerating them bugging him. Basically I don’t like Breezepelt cuz they never gave him a redemption arc so now I’m going to give him one through the power of found family. He’s pretty mean to them at first but any comments about them being a peak just go over their head, they’re like ‘you look sad, play mossball with me mossball always makes me not sad :)’. Breezepelt becomes a terrible emo uncle who only tolerates their Nibling and is a pain in the ass to everyone. This one is even longer than the last oh no, let me know if you want more I have too much this is a lot sorry.
This is amazing I love this so much, if you don’t mind I would love to hear more

Thousands of years of human evolution all led to this one moment. The moment that shall change the future outcome of society as we know it. That moment of course being THE GAY CHAPTER!! WOHOOOO!!! All jokes aside, I am so excited to break down this chapter because simply put, it was amazing, like your best yet. There wasn’t a dull moment!
My monologue begins with the ever loveable (and concerning) cs!Ranboo. This chapter opened with him once again determining his value to people based on the terms of transactions. He “owes them” and blah blah blah- have you ever considered that people love you and don’t place their value on you based on “not being normal” ??? Who am I kidding, of course, he hasn't considered that. He’s literally mad at himself for not being comfortable around the foster brother he can’t remember who only just got back into his life after several years, yeah Ranboo you’re totally being unreasonable. Anyway, cs!Ranboo had a lot of internal conflicts going on in this update, for example, taking two hours to get dressed. He was giving off major lead character in a chick flick vibes minus the obvious gender crisis. And speaking of gender crisis the way you wrote out his gender euphoria was really neat. Like usually if I’m reading some sort of story about trans/enby characters and presentation through clothing, the second they put on said clothing it’s like “YES, I FINALLY FEEL COMFORTABLE!!!!” and that’s nice and all, but the more subtle expression of his euphoria here is so nice because dude, that’s how I feel about gender presentation, just a calm feeling of “this is right” and it was really nice to see that here! Anyway there are a few other things in this chapter Ranboo did that made me scream a little, one being the thought, “Now he’s an adult…” No, you’re not u bitch, you are not old enough to do shit except drive. His (and Tubbo’s constant need to express “responsibility” is so frustrating. They do it for different reasons of course, Ranboo trying to use responsibility and being ahead of his peers as something to “make up” for his shortcomings aka his own ableism toward himself. He uses it as a distraction, and it's so sad that he thinks not being a perfect human being without the ability to fail makes him less worthy of love in both conscious and subconscious ways. Now to talk about the most important cs!Ranboo revelation… He talks to Springerle. He talks to his cat. 10 out of 10, he’s perfect your honor, look at him go, I’m so proud- Like who wouldn’t talk to their cat about their sexuality realizations (me cuz I don’t have a cat) In actual news, this final scene was just so lovely, it was like leading a mouse through a maze to reach the cheese. “Yeah, you’re almost there! So close, you can do it Ranboo!” And the way you wrote his utter jubilation in discovering he was aromantic, I couldn’t stop smiling (And also screaming “FINALLY” at the top of my lungs) I’m so happy that he’s opened himself up to all this self-discovery and I can’t wait for chapter 29 :DDD
Now to talk about…ughhhhhhhhhhh- aka cs!Dream! He didn’t have as much screentime this chapter, but he still had enough time to do some damage because he sucks. This whole section will just be me ranting semi-coherently about why I hated him in this chapter, so if you're expecting some top-notch analysis then you’re out of luck! (/hj) Now I was pissed immediately off the gate with “Dream is always smiling these days…” Can you not please? Can you not make these implications?? Ugh, I hate subtext because that makes this sentence absolutely disgusting. Oh, so you’re telling me that Dream has been happier now that he’s got a firm hold on Ranboo’s life and has isolated him from his loved ones? ^-^ That's great, that’s wonderful *Shreds paper with teeth* This whole scene at Dream’s place was enraging, especially his questions about “guilt”. Dream just loves making Ranboo question his ability to do good things and have a good conscious doesn’t he?? He really does just love making him think he would definitely kill other people or himself doesn’t he??? ^-^ God I’m so mad, I want his sorry green face ripped to shreds. And then the fact that he’s trying to train Ranboo into being unable to disagree/say no to him, the facial expressions and the coldness and shutting down their conversations (telling him to sleep) if he doesn’t like his answers. And don’t get me started on the fact that Dream would kill to see Ranboo’s dreams, that’s not weird at all especially not with the context of their conversation about murder and guilt! And then the fact that Ranboo made the negative conversation with Dream out to be a nightmare???? Oh NO, he’s literally gonna start only associating negative interactions with him as unreality!! Am I just overthinking things? Maybe. That being said he is still essentially tricking his mind into believing the real Dream can only act with Ranboo’s best interest and affection for him which I really don’t think with end well. (Also the fact that Ranboo says “he doesn’t care about Tommy” but proceeds to protect his identity from Dream anyway is literally just caring about Tommy. Actions speak louder than words buddy) Even though Dream's appearance in the chapter was smaller, the fact that Ranboo is aware of so many of Dream’s negative qualities makes me all the more frustrated and that's what I love the most about cs!endersmile, the fact that I feel such strong anger while reading nearly any scene with them is genuinely so awesome.
Okay, Is it gender time? I think it’s gender time. What I mean is the scene with Ranboo and Niki! This was so nice man, it was awkward- like sooo awkward- but god it was so worth it for this sibling bonding moment! It was really nice to see Niki treating it so casually, especially since xe definitely knows how much Ranboo was freaking out to be asking that. Niki, like the audience, knows ranboo is going into full panic mode for nothing, but xe still makes a habit of ensuring he’s comfortable, even casually tossing in some fashion advice! This was just so tender, especially in comparison to the previous Ranboo pov(s) where he basically ignored her to the level of causing her to panic and untrust. And that leads of course to her reaction to Ranboo mentioning he’s going to hang out with Tubbo. Dude, she was acting like a proud parent with that smile. Literally everyone knows they’re in some sort of committed relationship before they are even in one and it’s so funny. And speaking of their relationship…
It’s time to talk about cs!Beeduo!! How do we start this section (which I’m calling will definitely be the longest section by far) Why with the stupidest thought cs!Ranboo has ever had of course! “That’s obviously not reciprocated” HOW DENSE CAN ONE MAN BE??? You have a “bit” where he “jokingly” says you would make a good husband, he calls you pretty all the time, like are you blind??? They share one brain cell I swear… Anyway, this chapter did actually give us so much food, I was smiling almost half the chapter which is saying something know cough syrup's track record of making me either feel really mad or really sad (/pos of course) All the flirting this chapter was just so HNIJNDIOSDNSNXASKONX- you feel me? Though that being said we can’t have fully nice things and so Dream just had to keep butting his way into Ranboo’s mind, don’t think about spending time with that loser you’re on a dinner date and Tubbo loves you :( But seriously you’ve done a great job at balancing the utter love Ranboo has for Tubbo with both the awkwardness of hanging out for the first time in a while and his felt obligation to Dream. For a second Tubbo is complimenting Ranboo’s appearance and reaffirming his gender euphoria and then the next he’s thinking about Tubbo’s alcoholism with growing concern. I like how it’s always realistic, they flirt and their relationship is so special and lovely but they still have giant problems in relation to communication and trauma and it’s never pushed aside for the sake of fluff, their issues never disappear in a scene even if they aren’t the focus of the scene and that’s one of my favorite things about your writing! Now on to more pressing matters- IT WAS FINALLY MILKSHAKE TIME!!! I’ve been looking forward to this scene ever since you first mentioned it, and boy was I not disappointed. All the conversations and thoughts in the diner were so awesome to read! The fish conversation was hilarious, the disney princess/prince discussion was great, and the whole name-picking thing too! You are so good at writing banter, it always feels so natural and flows so well! You’ve literally transported c!beeduo’s banter from the dsmp to this fic. That's how much you’ve nailed it on the head. And then the amount of GAY- Like they both stared at each other for a collective total of 10 minutes, and they think the other is the prettiest person on the planet and I’m living for it. I absolutely loved the imagery of Ranboo taking pictures of Tubbo with his brain because “he’s just an objectively and pretty subject” (I’m not gonna take credit for this, but it is awfully reminiscent of one of my headcanons…/hj) Tubbo’s realizations were 100% being gay for Ranboo, this is just facts, and he literally stared at him when he realized this yet Ranboo doesn’t possibly know what it is because he is dense as an anxious brick.
But as much as I loved the cs!beeduo fluff in this chapter, the elephant in the room was the hurt/comfort of Ranboo finally opening up about a giant part of himself. That whole scene by the train tracks immediately felt more melancholy and drifty. Tubbo repeats his attempts at getting Ranboo to open up a little simply by exposing the fact that he can’t lie well at all. And then to my complete shock, Ranboo admits that he has a bad memory. And seriously this was so monumental for him to do. He has barely opened up to Tubbo, so many times in the past willing to lie as quickly as possible for the sake of not being pitied or looked down upon, but this time he tells Tubbo one of his most guarded truths. He tells him about his psychosis, and I was just so happy for him. Ranboo being open about himself was so cathartic after both Dream and he had kept telling himself that his memory, his psychosis, how “wrong” he was made him inherently unloveable or of less value. For him to tell that to Tubbo shows me how much more Ranboo simply trusts Tubbo. But in this moment of vulnerability, I thought it would all be ruined by that phone call from Dream. I was preparing myself to scream, but I was so happy that Tubbo spoke up, begging him not to answer, and even more so that Ranboo listened. That was so big for Tubbo, because imagine him being worried out of his mind by Ranboo’s relationship with Dream and being ignored by him, for Ranboo to prove then and there in that moment that Tubbo matters more to him. That was so tremendous to me. And all the imagery used when Ranboo was thinking about or looking at Tubbo. Sunbeams, warm, bright, smiling. All that lead to my favorite line of the fic so far, “Beside him, the sun says, ‘So are you.’” The symbolism is so beautiful, that line is so beautiful. Tubbo thinks Ranboo is the prettiest ever- AHAskNSknlBUJKL- Thank you for writing that. And for this both melancholy and happy section to end with Ranboo finally acknowledging his relationship with Tubbo is special and beyond the restraints of being strictly platonic had me cheering “FINALLY” Do I think next chapter Ranboo will ask Tubbo about being in a qpr? No, because I don’t get nice things and I don’t want to get my hopes up too high, especially since you’ve hyped the next chapter as intense, but I’m still so happy with how far cs!beeduo has come and this chapter is exactly why I think you write the most in-character human beeduo there is.
So in other words, this chapter was amazing, made me want a partner, and made me feel such a big level of pride for these characters. (That’s my blorbo! Look at him communicate ^v^) I am definitely dreading what Dream might do considering Ranboo both didn’t answer his phone call or his texts, but that’s a problem for another Tuesday, so we’re not gonna look at that dumpster fire right now. I truly can’t describe just how well you convey tone, but dude you are so talented!! Everything transitioned so well and everything felt like it was right where it was supposed to be, and tone is a lot harder to convey than the feelings of characters too. You already know, but I’m gonna draw cs!Ranboo’s in his outfit from this chapter so I’ll be working on that for the rest of the day! Thank you for the wonderful update as usual my wonderful writing friend, and have a fantastic rest of your day! <333
evolution and darwinism and adaptation all exist just for this one chapter babey let's gooooooo
Ranboo's insecurity that his relationships with people are transactional is embedded in a lot of his less-than-ideal interactions with people, one for example being Dream's previous method of paying him for photography, which he has stopped as of recent but is still existent in Ranboo's understanding of their relationship. there's also how Ranboo feels like Niki took him in because she had no other option, etc. he just has a lot of issue considering that people go out of their way to choose him as a friend, since it seems like a lot of his relationships are either transactional (to him), crashing and burning, or, well, Tubbo.
honestly if Ranboo felt any stronger of a euphoria wave he might have exploded into a million pieces. genuinely though, i wanted it to be both impactful but also subtle, because i feel like with Ranboo his experiences with happiness are a lot softer and quieter, and also because like, well, the fight isn't over yet, y'know? i'm really happy u liked how i wrote that :]
I have. SO many thoughts about Tubbo's sense of responsibility vs Ranboo's, many of which are actually less evident in CS itself and moreso expanded on in some of my ideas for fics after it, but i digress. u summarize it perfectly -- he's literally 17 years old but has had to grow up so, SO fast just to survive, and his sense of responsibility is both genuine (as in he likes working at the bakery, he likes driving, he likes his own place, he likes feeling relied on) and unfortunately part of his self-hatred (if he isn't acting like a perfectly functional adult all the time, he'll be too much of a burden for people, because nobody wants Ranboo the teenager, they want Ranboo the adult). it's double sided
HIM TALKING TO SPRINGERLE GENUINELY MADE ME SO HAPPY... she's a very sweet cat but bro he's just going on to her about this aromanticism realization and she's like. i love u but i am sleepy why are u telling me this. God bless though -- and genuinely the responses to that final scene have been So so wonderful so i'm really happy you liked it too, we're getting there :D it's really nice getting Ranboo to a place where he has a lot of shit to sort out -- including his gender, still, bc he still has a ways to go -- but being able to say that he's actually nailed down his sexuality for the time being? that's really really cool. also makes my job easier now if i can just reduce these 16 other internal conflicts of his-
READING THE PHRASE "Shreds paper with teeth" MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD HELPSKDFJH - what I like about this Dream and Ranboo scene (this is my favorite one of theirs i've written thus far actually!) is that Ranboo is both acknowledging that Dream isn't a great person, but also disbelieving it. we're starting to see Ranboo, in subtle ways, point out odd things about Dream's behavior -- the weeping-angel like sensation of him only looking at Ranboo when Ranboo's not looking at him, the fact that Dream seems relunctant to let Ranboo leave as opposed to him all but rejecting him nonstop earlier in CS -- etc. but we also see that Ranboo doesn't WANT to think that he's seeing these things, because he wants Dream to be a friend but more than that, he wants Dream to be SAFE. Dream clearly is starting to show very different behaviors towards Ranboo than he did at the start, and Ranboo is noticing that, and he's just trying to hold onto the ride of Dream's demeanor in hopes that, like, it's going to be okay in the end. Dream started off as a stiff business partner, then someone Ranboo was afraid of, then a mentor-like figure, then a friend, and now this weird mix of all of them. it's very odd and Ranboo is both seeing how fucked it is and doing all he can to look the other way.
writing Niki and Ranboo conversations is always interesting because I try to capture a lot of that like... sisterly interaction energy with them. but obviously y'know their relationship is a bit complicated still and i can't wait to work through it but like, you get it, sisterly at the minute. the gender scene with Niki was pretty intense for me to write actually for reasons I'm still trying to pick apart, but i wanted to get at like... what you said, xe treats it casually because xe gets what Ranboo must be feeling and xe doesn't want to stress him out worse. and also xe is SO fucking relieved that Ranboo is not only telling xem where he's going out to, but also that he's going out with TUBBO, specifically. Xe's been losing xeir mind a lot over where the fuck Ranboo's been so hearing that he's going with Tubbo is, like, really nice for xem.
it's important for me with beeduo interacting to show, like yu said, that the two of them have a LOT of shit hanging over their head, but they still love one another. like, something i wanted to note at the start of them hanging out while in the car is that Tubbo is honestly a little scared of Ranboo, or rather scared FOR Ranboo, but it's a mix of both. and Ranboo in turn has so much anxiety and want to help Tubbo vs not knowing how. the two of them have a lot of shit going on essentially. BUT, the two of them still, fundamentally, have this good relationship, and that's why the chapter is meant to be bittersweet-- their issues aren't forgotten for the sake of just a light-hearted scene or two, but that doesn't mean that they aren't still happy in those moments.
God, the way that both of them are so dense is really funny to me, like Tubbo I can let off the hook bc he's not that bad but Ranboo thinking that the feelings are unreciprocated despite the fact that Tubbo literally stares at him more than once bc he finds him so goddamn pretty is like. so funny to me. I do somewhat wish that I wrote this chapter from Tubbo's POV so I can gush about Ranboo but there's more time for that later! but yeah, as you put it, Ranboo is as dense as an anxious brick. which is the funniest fucking way you could have put that by the way Im obsessed with it
I know I start a lot of sentences off with "one of the hardest things while writing CS is..." but genuinely, trying to figure out when and how character's open up about certain issues IS really difficult to nail. I literally have a separate outline in my outline doc just to go through when I think Ranboo brings up X fact about him self and to who he says it, and i've ALREADY fucked it upw ith this chapter IFDSDFSKJ but like... I wanted him to talk about his memory because it's such an important thing with Ranboo but also like, tip of the iceberg. Tubbo doesn't know a lot of the extra details that makes these memory issues so much worse -- he doesn't know about Ranboo's psychotic delusions that feed off of his inability to remember shit, he doesn't know about the things Dream does, he doesn't know THAT mcuh about Fundy, etc. -- but he does know the issues exist, and that's a big step for Ranboo, because it shows to him that opening up isn't impossible. that he has a chance to do it. and that Tubbo, even if he doesn't have all the right words for it, will be there for him.
the astral metaphors are forever in this fucking fic and I don't know why but I'm not complaining! Tubbo would probably liken Ranboo to the moon, were this chapter from his POV, because Ranboo is constant and glowing and somewhere Tubbo can find refuge in. but to Ranboo, in the POV we see, the absolute hot mess of a person that keeps calling him pretty nonstop is undeniably the sun. bc he guides Ranboo back to somewhere that kind of feels like home-- maybe not right now, but someday might truly be that home for him.
and yeah, CS is still very much a slowburn (have I tagged the fic as that? I think the 45 chapters says it all but still) so things aren't going to automatically fall into place, but what's important is we're getting closer to the two of them HAVING those pieces to fall into place, and it's more just a matter of where they're setting up the jigsaw puzzle. not sure if that makes sense but I think you get me -- they're making progress!!!!
THANK U SO MUCH FOR THE KIND WORDS AS ALWAYS IT MEANS THE ABSOLUTE WORLD <3333333

Hi can I request a romantic male jjk matchup please? Here’s my details
• bisexual
• She/her
• Height: 5’0”
• personality type: INFP
• Age: 24
• I have originally dark brown (almost black) wavy hair but I bleached all of it recently so it’s now platinum blonde and I’ve kept it short for years (it’s now in a wolfcut style). I have dark brown eyes and a light to tan skin. My style varies from moment to moment. Sometimes I like wearing clothes with light colors (imagine Lana del Rey vibes) and sometimes I like wearing clothes with a dark aesthetic (my friends told me I look like an egirl one time). I like animals and would like to have a pet cat or dog someday
• Personality:
I could say I’m a really sensitive person. I feel a lot, especially empathizing with other people. And because of this, I find it hard to conceal whatever I feel.
I also enjoy observing people and their body language. I kinda hate small talks so I don’t usually don’t interact with people I know. However, my friend told me that they notice that people get attracted to me (both platonically and romantic) and I make friends that easily if I want to.
I’ve learned that you can’t please everyone, so I usually do whatever I want and ignore other people cuz we’re all gonna die eventually so why bother think about what others think. I’m usually loud around my friends but I try to be more soft-spoken towards adults, but I also don’t let anyone belittle or manipulate me and cut the interaction right there if I sensed that they’re doing that, even adults. I also believe that it doesn’t matter if you share your blood. If they disrespect you, I also give the same disrespect back, even for adults. People often think that I’m this reserved person and can’t do any harm, but I’m actually the opposite but of course I would cause harm if it’s really necessary, like for attaining justice. And since I have a strong sense of justice, I don’t condone wrong doings. So if someone, even a family member, does something bad that affected other people, I will do whatever it takes for that person to get what they deserve and more.
I love hanging out with people that I could talk with everything and nothing at the same time. Like we could joke about anything random but talk about philosophy or psychology next. The recent topic I’m interested the most is about ethics and morality and questions about what is right and wrong. I don’t mind pda, but I don’t really do it that often. My love language is just hanging out and do whatever like watching movies, going somewhere, or just talking. I also like giving gifts and also appreciates so much if someone gave me gifts.
My hobbies are drawing, playing guitar, singing, making resin stuff, reading, playing chess, cooking, and sometimes writing. 
Also, I have a big fascination about death and the concept of it. I think that concept is really beautiful no matter what culture the concept is from.
Thank you very much!
I think your Jujutsu kaisen matchup is
Choso
Tumblr media
Choso is a calm person. Even if he has someone to talk to, he rarely does. He's more secretive.
Even among friends or family, he won't talk much. Often times, he doesn't show his emotions at all. However, his relatives know him, they know that he is a very affectionate person.
However, once his emotions get to the bottom of it, he can't hide it. Especially when it comes to his relatives. He will be sad or furious and he will not be able to hide it.
Very often he just ignores the people around him. He doesn't care what happens to them. Death is a natural thing. He knows that he cannot help them, and he would not like to help them either. Not everyone deserves it. The only people I want to protect are my loved ones. No one more.
He also doesn't care what others think about him. They may say that he acts strange, looks strange. If someone accepts him as he is, he will be better for that person. He may find it very valuable.
He can only be louder for close people. If he is only with them, he can smile and play. (Even though he'll be a little calmer anyway)
He is soft to everyone who is close to him. But he hates even family members who hurt someone close to him. He can hate with all his heart.
When he loves someone, he does it as hard as he can. If he hates someone, that's also the case. A hated person cannot be respected.
He will not allow anyone to hurt his relatives, and he will not allow himself to be manipulated to accidentally hurt them. He doesn't want this.
He causes fear among people. He's just the way he is. Emotional, dispassionate, looking as if he wants to die or kill others, he calls. Sometimes they think he's weak because he looks like it. In fact, sometimes they are scared and sometimes they are not. It depends on the person.
He doesn't care what he has to do to the person he hates. He will protect loved ones. He also doesn't care what happens to someone. He would piss him off with something once, and he would certainly not be enjoyable meeting them. He will only try to hurt this person at all costs in order to bring justice.
He doesn't tolerate hurting other people. So even if he's a family member, he's going to make him feel even worse. But he couldn't hurt his younger siblings. They are always calm and nice about him. They love their older brother.
He also would like to have someone he can always trust and trust. Someone who can light up his life.
Headcanon:
• He could never hurt you. He believes that you make everything clear and that you also defend your beliefs. That you protect others around you, no matter who they are.
Even if you defend him. He would like to smile and cheer you on, but he will never leave you alone. He himself will protect you while you want to protect him.
He will be the enforcer for your justice.
• While he doesn't look, he is able to smile and joke. Really. All he need is the right people. Just the right people.
Even though it may seem that he has nothing interesting to say, especially funny, he may be doing something that will make you laugh. Even if not, he'll laugh at what you're laughing at. Talking to him is not so boring.
But talking to him about more serious topics is interesting. He could talk about the meaning of life and also (when you start this topic) about morality, ethics and what is good and bad. He may not know it, but he says everything as he thinks. He presents his views and will also gladly listen to yours.
• You can do whatever you want with him in any company. You can touch him, and if you don't want to, don't. Your touch is for him like a pleasant form in the pain of life. But it won't force you to do it everywhere.
When you don't mind, when you are walking, he will hold your hand or wrap his hands around you. Only the moment he knows he won't bother you.
If he could choose where to go, he would choose nice places where there aren't many people. Peaceful walks, quiet restaurant or whatever.
He would like to spend time with you always, no matter what. And he also does this to show you that he cares about you. He will do whatever you want for you.
He only does what you like. He does not force you to do anything and pays attention to what you feel comfortable with and what you are not comfortable with.
But he really wants you to like hugging him and showing him physical affection. His life is full of pain, and he would love you to soothe him as often as you can. Even if your mere presence makes him feel better.
• He can give you banal gifts and is also such a romantic… He only does what he knows. That's why he gives you gifts in the style of something you like, or sweet items, like a teddy bear, a pendant with a heart. (Don't worry, he probably won't bring you a pendant with a tiny bottle of his blood on it).
If you love him and he loves you, he would like to have some connection with you. It can even be something trivial like a matching pendant or whatever you want. (But if you want something weirder then go ahead)
• A fascination with death may be normal for him. If you are fascinated by death, you are fascinated by him. He is the only one of the nine pictures of death.
Despite the danger he poses to others, he is so soft to you that he is harmless. Needs a person who will think of him as someone with feelings and worry about him.
He just wants to hug and forget about the rest of his life.
• Everything you do is great for him. Any activity you like, you can also like it. It is important that she will be close to you.
"You're not afraid of me, are you? I would never want to hurt you. You are an important person to me. Thanks to you, I really feel alive."

Hi Cat👋 ! So, here’s my essay that I promised lmao. (I kinda jump around and talk about different scenes out of order so be prepared)
First off, I really fucking love that you give us both Ran and Rindous POVs and I enjoyed seeing Rin’s POV this time. Since we didn’t get his POV until now, at first I was having a harder time sympathizing with him but now that we get to know his feelings and thoughts directly, I’m just so sad for our boys. Both of them want to hate you but can’t, the scene where he didn’t even hesitate to ask for the hit on us to be called off really got me, cuz he could get himself into some deep shit for it.
I like that Rin is portrayed as being very observant I feel like that is a common HC for him that I personally like. But my god he thinks he knows someone so well cuz he’s so observant but it was such a shock when we no longer act like how he thought we would, making us seem like a stranger almost. This is probably a far stretch but I feel like Rin being observant and making the observation when we were all young that Ran already quickly had a soft spot for us makes me feel like even if Rin developed feelings for us (when we were younger), he wouldn’t act on it so Ran could get his chance.
Jahsdlfakjsdfha Rin getting jealous of how close Hanma gets to us fucking sent me, I am dying to know how Ran felt about how we didn’t even move or push Hanma away (I have a thing for guys being jealous/possessive of us can’t you tell? Lol)
That cliffhanger tho, Rin instantly noticing fear on our face (a good scene to show that he still “knows” us). Really makes me excited to see if Ran or Rin do anything, I really want them to but I feel like that would just spell trouble for all 3 of us showing that we know each other. But considering that Ran already has an idea that we’re in trouble I feel like if either does anything it would probably be him.
The flashback scene in this chapter was superb, it gave such good context as well as more hints to things that happened that we haven’t seen yet. But my god Ran going feral for us had me like hnnng 😍. I feel like us taking a big risk in lying for the brothers would be a turning point for Ran and his feelings for us, at the very least him trusting us more. Also, our uncle is shady af he had plans for us the whole time and took advantage of our desperation to help the brothers to get what he wanted 😒.
Ooooh Senju possibly being like idk a spy, she seems like she’s only with this group for ulterior motives. Makes me wonder if maybe she’s trying to use them or stop them, either way looks like we have an ally on the inside. 🤩
Even tho we don’t get our POV during the auction scene I completely loved how we were portrayed as cold and ignoring the brothers, completely understood it was for their own safety to act like we don’t know them. But doesn’t get translated to the brothers, again something crucial going over their heads cuz they’re so emotional over us.
Lajshdlafjk we threatened South?! Please tell me we threatened him in person, I want that for us so bad lmao. 🤣
Clarifying questions, so the way I understand it Munich is a place but we use it to refer to the terrible accident so that we can talk about it discreetly?
So, I know I already gushed about how great you write dialogue but like I think it stems a lot from the fact that you characterize the brothers and other characters so well. Like no one feels OOC and everything they say and do feels like it would be cannon. You’re just such a good writer I love your content so much and LDA is my top most anticipated fics, I’m always so excited when you post! 😍🥰
HELLO MY LOVE 💜💜 imma put it under the cut cuz this got long
I WAS SO CONFLICTED AS TO DO ANOTHER RAN POV OR RINDOU cuz i saw so so so much potential for a ran pov in the flashback but then i was like ?? i have to do rindou cuz i haven’t had one of rindou yet and this could show off how close he used to be to us and also he could get inside ran’s head without it actually being his pov, and i was really really tempted to do a pov from both of their viewpoints but then i went just with rindou cuz 🤭 ion wanna give everything away for ran yet
YES i love that hc for him, he was so like ?? when he was finally realizing that he couldn’t read us like he used to and it really REALLY stung. also 🤭 spoilers i cant say anything about that ;)
NAW CUZ YOU KNOW RAN WAS ON THE VERGE OF LOSING IT LMAOOOO his temper was already on the verge of snapping and then he sees that bullshit and he’s like 😐 aight. we’ll see more of that next chapter 🤭 and if whether or not they do anything about the new guy ;) (i also have a thing for guys being jealous hehe)
this was my favorite flashback besides the first chapter’s flashback (i feel like that one will always be my favorite) and it really was a turning point for both of them AND us—yes feral ran 💜 our lil baby who pretends he doesn’t care about us but then loses his mind when someone threatens us, we love him
hehe our uncle 🤭 he’s gonna be fun to start getting into to
SENJU, she’s in a complicated position hehe, i’ll get into it eventually but it probably won’t be for a few chapters.
and YES sobs, we’re sitting there thinking that they still at least know us well enough to realize what we’re doing but we don’t realize just how much we’ve changed over the years and that they dont 😭 and plus on top of all of the emotions they’re going thru rn they’re bound to misread
YES LMAO there’s gonna be a flashback about the south situation hehe
and yes !! munich is how we refer to the incident that took place 6 yrs ago ^.^
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and you are literally the sweetest i love u sm i hope u know that this 100% totally made my day—my biggest fear is mischaracterizing them or making them ooc LMAO 😭
