GEMS MY FRIEND SAID WATCHING 'TOP GUN: MAVERICK' FOR THE FIRST TIME:

"The jacket! The famous jacket that pulls women, pulls men, pulls the world!"

"Oh look how hot~ he looks on that motorcicle. He's even pracing his ass!"

(Maverick, on screen: "Well... He's not here yet.") The mans madness has begun."

"MAVERICK DON'T DIE YOU STILL NEED TO HAVE YOUR GAY ROMANCE!"

"He lasted two months at Top Gun? HA. He probably was a bigger piece of work than the students."

"From what I can tell, Maverick tamed Iceman. In the first one he was the little annoying bitch and Maverick saw a challenge."

"I mean, at least these two (Penny and Mav) have chemistry. They hooked up in a plane, after all."

"Iceman solves his problems, Iceman keeps his job, what a simp. That's dog behavior."

"Maverick doesn't look likes he's flirting with her, he's just confused. His confused face looks like his flirting face, and people assume. I know this because people do it to me."

"Yeah, he's kinda like that one Olívia Rodrigo song that she gets confused when she sees her ex... What was it again?" ('bad Idea right?' by Olivia Rodrigo)

"I like him (Bob)! He's pathetic like me!"

"Oooohhh they're (Phoenix and Bob) gonna be besties! I can feel it."

(When Phoenix racks Rooster with the cue) "OHOHOHOOOO I LIKE HER ALREADY."

(Didn't notice Hangman taking Bob's cue, I relayed the information) "Aaaahhh don't steal Bob's cue. Bob's cool, Bob's nice."

(After rewinding the scene) "NO, NO, NO! WHO IS THAT? NOBODY CAN STEAL BOB'S CUE! I don't like him (Hangman)."

(Hangman, on screen: Bradshaw! As I live and breathe!) *Slowly turns towards me with dead eyes*

"That's not enemies to lovers, that's just enemies."

"With just this scene, I can tell this guy (Hangman) comes and goes. 'Sometimes I flirt with you, sometimes I hate you.' He's like a tsudere."

"Oh, got it. Phoenix is adopted into the man's group. She's a bro."

"I wouldn't say that they're his support system, but those two are the people that know him the best. Hangman is paying attention because he wants to be the best and needs to defeat Rooster. Phoenix is demonstrating a more sibling like worry."

"Hondo is like Mavericks babysitter."

"Oh. Oh, now Mav's flirting with her."

(Following the 'Baby on Board' comment) "Don't talk shit about Bob! I don't like Hangman."

"Maverick is like a step father to Rooster. Not in the 'HAHA I FUCKED YOUR MOM' kind of way, but in the way that he helped raise him."

"Where is Iceman? I'm here for the two of them, I don't give a fuck about Aeronautics."

"I think Ice and Maverick had a long relationship, but they're not together anymore. They maintained a friendship, but their lives probably went in different directions. I'd say they were together for 10, maybe 20 years."

('I ain't worried' by OneRepublic starts playing) "This song is from 2022? OH MY GOD THE SCENE"

"DON'T PLAY AROUND WITH GRANDPA!"

*Started chanting "BOB! BOB! BOB!" When he got picked up*

*Eeriely quiet during the bird strike, until Maverick starts talking to Rooster* "OH THEY'RE NOT DEAD. THEY COULDN'T HAVE KILLED BOB! IF THEY KILLED BOB I WOULD STOP AND NEVER WATCH TOP GUN EVER AGAIN!"

"Definitely 20 years. Ice is probably the only person Mav actually loved. Like, not a fling?" "Yeah, probably." "He's been with lots of women, and men, but Iceman is the only person he was ever in love with– maybe still is."

"I think his (Ice's) wife knows. That's probably why she recognizes Mav and is kind of friends with him." "That's probably why she just let him go up to see Ice." "YEAH GO AHEAD, FUCK MY HUSBAND!"

"It's pretty easy to notice that Snowman– No, ICEman."

"That is the face of a man who just lost the love of his life."

"Damn, the mans a beast. If It was me I'd already have cried, alone, in a room absolutely destroyed, never to come out again."

"He's got nobody, dude! I just want his step child to come back, because If he doesn't that man's gonna kill himself!"

"Why does it always have to have a romantic ending. Just leave him with his adoptive son. Go away."

"They (Penny and Mav) aren't going to end up together."

"I have a theory! Fanboy is obsessed with women! Cus he's 'Fanboy'." "But wouldn't he be called Simp, then?" "Ah, then he's obsessed with men." "... simp can be for men too."

"There's gonna be a Top Gun Three? Who's it gonna be about? It ain't gonna be Maverick, that man has a foot in the grave already."

"Bob is my favorite in the second movie. I have no favorites in the first one because everybody is very macho and very gay, and that's boring."

Stardew valley “lore” ramble for my own game below the cut,, I’m like halfway trough my second year (first time playing) and have just been making shit the fuck up, if you correct/spoil me on ANYTHING I will hit you with my car. Applause and intrigue only

So,, farmer “hunter” (me :3) comes to the valley after being given the farm by mysterious dying grandpa with the shitty bed (I’d be dying too if you bed looked like that)

Spends the first 3 weeks of the game chopping down trees and weeding in a haze, as you do,

Eventually goes “oh yeah I should probably talk to these villager people a little,,”

I end up walking into the clinic after almost dying in the mines for the first time, like maybe,,, 3 pixels of health left, accidentally give Harvey a granola bar trying to talk to him (I did not know you can’t be holding items when talking to people) he asks if it’s “healthy” (Harvey doesn’t like my granola bars ): )

I obviously think that’s fucking hilarious, guy walks into the clinic practically bleeding out, gives the doctor a granola bar (that he hates) and then leaves.

I make it my mission to piss off harvey more so I get him a coffee the next day because y’know,, caffeine is “bad” for you, which APPARENTLY he LOVES, which is obviously where I fall in love with the nerd because he’s stupid and adorable.

I keep up my “charades” of buying him coffee twice a week, saying various things such as “this one’s poisoned for sure” meanwhile building up my farm and my skills, getting to know some of the other villagers also, like Linus and stuff (Linus is my bff)

Around fall I finally buy Harvey a bouquet and we start dating 👁‍🗨👁‍🗨 (yippie) winter passes without seeing him much (grinding money in the mines/fishing)

Eventually the first rainy day in spring I propose to my boy (he says yes obviously) and we get married (yippie x2)

Me and Harvey now live together on the farm (:

Specifically farmer “lore” vv

I like to think the farmer isn’t human, or at least not fully,, y’know we never hear about a “grandma” and like??? Stuff in the valley grows SUPER fast and the farmer is inherently very strong (can carry a bunch of stuff) all’at

So. The farmer is a supernatural creature sort of like a nature?? Protector?? Kinda thing?? (Inspired by ye’ Scandinavian trolls, because I’m Danish so y’know obviously my main viewing lens is from that perspective) we’re once they’re given/take a piece of land (grandpa giving me the farm) they’re bound to it and act as a protector and amplifier for that land, everything in the valley grows so fast because the farmer is passively magic.

The farmer can either have a “monster” form or a human disguise, for the first half of the game the farmer is in human disguise because people are generally distrusting of the supernatural but as he befriends the villagers he’s in monster form more and more (since that’s his natural look)

Since I’m Romancing Harvey I like to think Harvey had a suspicion but only found out about the whole monster thing after they got married but before everyone else finds out, he probably gets super excited about it since he’s a doctor and he’s like “omg,, you could study this” (nerd lol)

Uh yah 👍 there’s more but I think I’ll save that for later lol

#hunters obsessions sdv #stardew valley #stardew valley headcanons #can you call it headcanon??? I’m gonna call it that #stardew farmer #stardew harvey

Horropedia// Valentine's Day with S/O

Note// Valentine's Day... Not like i would often celebrate much, but that's why i have my pookies with me./ih

___

Before dating you, I think Valentines' Day wouldn't cross his mind much at first. Besides the idea of buying a gift for his grandpa... or treat himself by using his break looking through horror Galleries and book sections.

It is wrong to say that Valentine's Day is just meant for couples. It's a day for celebrating love in all its forms, from self-love to love between friends and family members after all.

I guess he haven't experienced much about giving gifts to other kinds of people. Like it's sometimes rare to see people give gifts to friends during Valentines' unless they are big BFFs-- Horropedia doesn't have a lot of people to talk with about his interests, nor seeing to be as close to anyone in an extent of being more intimate. Until he got to know you, then established a relationship with you.

"I used to not like this holiday much, you know?" Horropedia would say on every February 14th. Having this smile that seems to be recalling a nostalgic feeling.

"You remind me every year, honey." You would half heartedly say the same.

He would be most likely a bit awkward when it comes to looking through that certain holiday- wondering if he should give you something in your first Valentines' together as couple.

I feel like he wasn't too active in the first year of relationship until the time goes by as he slowly finds himself hanging out with you more often.

You both probably didn't took much of a deal when it comes to the holiday, going on with your lives as you interact with one another normally like an everyday manner. You both didn't ask much from another besides each other's sweet company.

Eventually, he convinced himself in your 2nd-3rd year dating to get chocolates or even a squishable, like ones of a ghost, plague doctor, or a kitty grim reaper;;;;

Valentines Day will often be the day where you two still have to follow your daily routine. So, during work on his break, he would sneak the gifts on your desk or at your suitcase room before quickly coming back to his spot - rather than giving them to you personally.

4th year is when he decides to give gifts to you personally now, feeling more confident and comfortable in the lovely relationship he has with you.

5th year is when he would happily offer to go to some new place with you after your duties before coming back home to have a sleepover.

So on... some things seem to be done differently after the previous.

Dating Horropedia likely happened after you both knew each other so well since you were at the orphanage, taking care of the grades while also doing these kinds of teenage sillies for the last few years there.

Instead of plants, I would imagine Horropedia giving random mushrooms or a jar of bugs in your locker as a gift of affection(....help)

Either if after that went well or not, he would apologize if you point out that you are not a fan of that stuff- your patience will be well-appreciated as sometimes he can't even read the room himself... 😭🫠😔🥺

But well, during those orphanage years, there are few times during February where you both try out each other's boxed candies or chocolates during lunch period. Sitting together in the cafeteria and trying out the delicacies as Horropedia would randomly infordump whatever he brainrots in those hours/ih

And even currently, while now older, you're still pretty much following that tradition with him.

"See, Josh? This is the true meaning of Valentine's Day!" You would chirp at him as you try the new limited edition of your favorite dessert brand.

"Horror romance movies... a box of wine, and enough candy to kill a horse???" Horropedia notices the now big mountain of sweets with only 2 bottles of wine on the shared tables. Adjusting his glasses by the sight.

"You heard me!"

"Babe, I love you, I do. But If I eat one more piece of chocolate- I think I'm going to throw up."

Nonetheless, you both continue on and just enjoy whatever the limit that seems good enough for the both of you. I had these deep but pleasant conversations and got a bit tipsy in each other's arms on the couch. You both watch these classic and modern films together.

I think Horropedia probably would try to take one single flower arranging class- just to see if he can even make the ideal flower bouquet for you...

It went not so great, effort counts though./ih

One funny story as well is that Horropedia once gifted you something... huge in your 7th year during the orphanage years. Like some kind of ghost busting backpack-

As seniors to the arcanists, juniors couldn't judge much at the sight, knowing you too as they look up to you. Whereas the fellow seniors merely take quick, confused glances before minding their own business, going to their lockers, or rushing their butts to their next class.

Like he suddenly came up to you as you opened your locker and present you the bag sized item that is wrapped in a red bow...--

"Thank you--- but I can't even fit this in my locker, Josh! What should I do?

"Well, looks like you'll just have to carry it around all day! Everyone will know you’re all mine." ;)

Kidding, he'll help you carry it around if it's too much for you to grab- Or even a couple of textbooks as e escorts you to your classroom;;;. X')

I have the feeling that sometimes, I think Horropedia is attractive enough to lure some people in the orphanage during the teens/ih

There would be times when some girls would ask him if he's free to go somewhere with them during the love holiday- but his answers will always be the same. Even after the graduation.

"I'm sorry... Y/N already asked me out- Also, wanna take a look at this horror novel? Pretty cool, huh?" :D

"Oh? A hang out on friday? Ahhhhh,,, sorry, I have plans with Y/N for 3 days starting Friday.... Maybe next time???" <:)

"Date? Oh sheesh, sorry, I'm taken. And I'm very faithful. I will say." :)

"Oh- sorry, dude. I have a haunted mall date with Y/N- and when I say haunted mall, I mean that abandoned, haunted mall from 10 blocks away from here. I'm sure it'll be fun for us- they even plan to bring a picnic basket for lunch! *sighs* i like them so much;;;." <33

Yes. You're the one driving. There are times he would drive normally, and other times he would drive ✨️extreme✨️...

Yes. He'll ramble stuff about "horror" and you in the one same sentence. He just finds that very appealing for some reason-

And if not, he'll probably would seem to be the type to not get too interested in Valentine's Day, often still seeming to behave the same as every other day.. The ones who know him very well can describe otherwise. They would already notice the change on his plans as they seem to have you more involved than usual.

"Thank You" (Platonic Lucerys Velaryon x Reader)

A/N: soooo this is a COMPLETELY PLATONIC one shot!!! Luke mentions having a crush on the reader when he was young but no romance nope nope nope. I kept who the husband is vague so it can be Aegon/Aemond/Jace, whichever you choose 💕

Summary: Luke comes to babysit your kids and tells you a little known secret.

TW: profanity, innuendo

Word Count: 1,231

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the House of The Dragon/Fire & Blood characters nor do I claim to own them. I do not own any of the images used nor do I claim to own them.

Luke pulls up in front of your home, smiling to himself. He hasn’t seen the two of you in quite some time. He is in last year of university and has been drowning in grad school applications. In fact, the last time he saw you might have been at the annual summer Targaryen-Velaryon-Hightower family barbecue. You and your husband had been responsible for grilling the burgers. Of course, that ended in disaster and Great Grandpa Otto’s Foreman Grill will never be the same again.

He laughs aloud at the memory and moves to ring the doorbell. You seem to have already heard his car pull in, because the door is opening before he can even touch the button. You give him a wide smile and pull him into a tight hug.

“What’s so funny, Luke?” you raise a brow at the young man who is like the little brother you never had, “Do our Halloween decorations amuse you that much?”

He looks out at the various skeletons and tombstones that decorate your front yard and grins at you, “Yeah, you’ll be a big hit with the trick or treaters.”

“We always are,” you say, pulling him inside, “Come in. The kids are in the living room, they’re excited to see Uncle Luke!”

“Yeah, I’m excited to see the little shits too,” Luke responds, taking his shoes off, remembering Aegon’s story about how you once threw his own shoes at him when dared to wear them inside your apartment when you were in college.

“Hey,” you point a finger at them, “They’re medium sized shits now.”

You and Luke go into the living room and your three sons, Jahaerys, Rhaegar, and Maegor, and your daughter, baby Daenerys, playing video games instead of doing their homework as you had told them.

“Ugh,” you groan, “Their dad probably turned on the TV, he always makes me be the bad guy,” Luke snickers as you herd your children onto the couch, turning off their Xbox and immediately being whined at, “Hey! No, I said homework, then Xbox.”

“But Daddy said we could!” Daenerys whines.

“Who’s the boss here, sweetie?” you say, “Mommy. Not Daddy, Mommy. Now, you four be good for Uncle Luke, okay?”

The kids finally notice Luke’s presence and scream as they pile onto him, each saying how much they missed him, and in fact, fighting over who missed him the most. You hear someone walking down the stairs and turn to see your husband buttoning his jeans.

“Hey, baby, it’s time to head out,” he comes and kisses your forehead, turning to Luke, clapping him on the shoulder, “You gonna be good handling them for three hours? We’re really sorry, we wouldn’t have asked, Daeron usually does it but he-”

Luke waves the two of you off, “Don’t worry about it. I missed them. It’ll be fun.”

You pull on your high heels as your husband goes to turn on the car and turn to Luke, “So, you know all the important numbers are on the fridge. No sugar for Maegor after seven and Dany’s Epi-pen is-“

“Y/N,” Luke levels you with an amused look, “I know where everything is. You two deserve a night off. Go, have fun.”

You nod, kissing him on the cheek and calling out to your husband who is now honking the horn obnoxiously, “I’m on my way, you dick!”

You wave again at Luke and close the door behind you, giggling as your husband lets out a wolf whistle at you, still able to make you blush like a schoolgirl all these years later.

——

When you come back that night, Luke is beyond ready to get some shut eye. The kids made him play Cops and Robbers for two hours straight, followed by an overly competitive game of MarioKart. He practically sobs with relief when he hears your key in the door. The two of you enter, the house, your kids running and clinging to your legs when you close the door. Your husband offers to take them to bed before whispering that you can thank him by leaving the lights on tonight. You slap the back of his head before giggling, still a bit wine drunk from dinner.

You go to Luke and grin, “Thank you, Luke. I Venmo’d you for your trouble, you’re such a sweetheart. I’m so glad I can really call you my family.”

Luke smiles as your kids come and kiss you goodnight before being wrangled up the stairs by your husband, who says his own brief goodbye to Luke.

“So, how’re the grad school apps going?” you ask excitedly, “Are you enjoying senior year? Met anyone?”

“We’re not all lucky like the two of you, Y/N,” Luke teases, “Some of us have to graduate to find their soulmate.”

You scoff, “Ha. Soulmate. He’s a major pain in my ass is what he is. You Velaryons and Targaryens are menaces, all of you.”

Luke’s eyes find a photo on your fireplace that makes him smile widely, “Oh my God, I remember this!”

He goes and picks up the photo. You and the entire family on that family vacation to Hawaii from so many years ago; the group photo at Diamond Head Volcano which everyone had to struggle to cram themselves into.

“That was the best family vacation ever,” Luke grins.

“I remember you cockblocking everyone,” you snicker, “When you came and sat by me on the plane. They were so fucking pissed.”

“Yeah,” Luke chuckles, placing the photo back, “I never told you, but I had such a big crush on you back then.”

You gasp, slapping his shoulder, “Shut up, no you did not!”

He nods, laughing at your reaction, “I did, I swear! I thought you were the coolest, prettiest girl on the entire planet. I really looked up to you and it just kind of spiraled into this big ass crush,” his eyes move to your wedding photo and he smiles, “But even back then, I knew the two of you were meant for each other.”

“Aw, Luke,” you pull him into a tight hug, “Please come around more often. We miss you. Maybe we can take the kids and all go to Hawaii again someday!”

He nods excitedly, “That would be awesome! And I could introduce you guys to Sara!”

Your eyes widen in glee, “Lucerys Velaryon, you have a new girlfriend!”

He nods, grabbing his backpack, “I do, I do! You guys will love her, she’s super nice.”

“Bring her around for dinner next weekend,” you smile, “I’ll invite Helaena and the others. We can all meet her.”

“For sure,” he pauses before turning to give you a hug, “Thank you for teaching me what a good woman is like, Y/N, and the two of you showing me at true love looks like.”

You smile at him, almost teary-eyed, about to respond, when your husband’s voice rings out, “Baby, the kids are asleep, but Daddy’s not! Come on!”

You turn to Luke and the two of you burst into laughter.

“I’ll let you get back to Daddy,” he chokes out, heading to his car.

You shake your head, “Text one of us you got home okay!”

He sticks his head out the window and retorts, “I think you’ll be too busy to reply!”

You laugh and wave, watching him disappear into the night.

FAWY Minis | Ch. 5 (Magnus Rasmodius POV)

Rating: Mature/Explicit

Notes: This one’s during the flower dance chapter, as well as 18 and 19!

I never really considered Magnus’ inner dialogue much, mostly just focusing on magicky stuff with him, so I wanted to play around with that. I feel like he’d be a bit insecure, maybe even anxious, when it comes to fitting in, romance, etc. He’s just good at hiding it. I tried to portray that a bit.

Btw, g/n = grandpa’s name. Wasn’t sure if y’all would want a named grandpa or to insert your own grandpa in there, so I kept it customizable to be safe!

I hope you enjoy x

[If you're new here - hi! Please see chapter 18 of the main story (below) for a visual reference to the wizard - I refer to a modded version throughout the fic!! I do recommend you read at least up to chapter 31 of the main story before reading this though, so as to avoid spoilers.]

Falling Away With You (main story)

Check it out on ao3!

Prev | Next

It’s her.

It’s… it’s actually her.

I’d overheard the discussion of a new resident moving onto Mooncrest during one of my periodic visits to Gus’ kitchen. I’d heard the assumptions — which I now know to be true, given her appearance — that it was going to be (g/n)’s granddaughter.

How could I not have foreseen how significant she would be to me, though?

Oftentimes the spirits give me somewhat of a hint, a little spark of my senses to let me know if something important is happening. Something worth looking into. Something like this, damn it. A wee reminder to not only be more aware of the world around me outside of my work, but to perhaps take the time and effort to foresee what’s to come in my near future.

I feel a subtle vibration in my fingers.

Are they toying with me? Is that what this is?

Feeling the zaps of their rebuttal through my limbs, I come to the conclusion that they are.

But… why wait..?

More tingling.

That was rhetorical, you obviously can’t answer m—

One last buzz, and I feel the spirits’ presence fade. Sigh.

Cheeky little phenomena, they are. I can only hope to ever commune with them in a plane of existence where we can see one another. For now… I might as well be a loon, telepathically speaking with invisible sprites that communicate through touch above all else.

…As though this scenario as a whole — now paying particular attention to not just my potential daughter, but my soulmate as well, all from a row of particularly bountiful bushes — makes me any less of a loon.

I shake the feeling that I’m being strange and that this is probably unnecessary , and I focus on the task at hand. I still am keen on determining whether or not I’ve any relation to Abigail. No use giving up now that I’m here.

My eyes flit to the girl, her hair as vibrant as my own. She’s laughing with her friends, tentatively sipping the punch I saw Pamela spiking with cheap liquor earlier.

I wish I could get close enough to see if there’s any bit of an arcane link connecting us. I desire answers, damn it, not to spend every chance I get contemplating my lineage while hiding just out of view.

I shut my eyes, rubbing them with a thumb and forefinger.

Just when I believe I can calm my high emotions, my mind wanders to another circumstance that’s haunted me for years. Not nearly as many, but I digress.

For Abigail to be friends with Sebastian was not exactly improbable, but it is funny, in an ironic way.

Of course Abigail would befriend my former apprentice. One I was rather fond of, at that.

I observe him for a moment. It’s rare to see him in anything brightly colored, aside from occasions such as this, where it’s a requirement. He looks quite handsome, if I do say so.

Is it silly of me to wonder if he’s ever thought the same of me? Is this just another instance of my insecurities controlling my thought process? Or is that a normal thing to think about, and I’ve merely forgotten, given how long it’s been since my last romantic endeavor?

That’s unimportant, I suppose.

Although… he must’ve had some reason for abruptly halting his apprenticeship with me.

Perhaps to him I was no more than some wretch living in a tower, far from Pelican Town’s main population for reasons unbeknownst to him. He could have asked, of course, but I wouldn’t exactly put it against him to keep his opinions to himself. I mean, look at me. I don’t resemble any of these townsfolk, do I? And of course here I am, spying on them rather than partaking in their activities firsthand, and I spend most of my time in my home when I could be out here socializing, and I’m sure my lack of socialization with non-elementals could be off-putting.

Sure, those who know of me don’t typically enjoy my presence, but…

I don’t know.

God. Now I’m a loon who’s spying and in a vicious pit of self-hatred that I buried myself in from the outskirts of the event.

Lovely.

Perhaps I should go… I’m not being very productive in my research anyway.

I chance one last look towards our newest farmer. I feel another tingle. A pull to her that’s far too tempting to succumb to. As though I want to just leap onto the field and say something to her. Anything.

How do I even go about getting closer to someone I’ve no reason to commune with? Marie worked at a shop, so it was quite easy to befriend her. The others… I had nary a clue where they were or what they were doing. This is an entirely new situation for me.

The farmer’s eyes flicker to mine. I feel the same thunderous commotion in my limbs and my belly as I did when Marie and I first met. God above, this girl has the same bright flush to her cheeks, the same gentle yet piercing gaze… which is… on me…

Oh.

Shit.

My eyes widen, as do hers.

She appears to be just as compelled to gravitate to me as I am to her. She takes half of a step forward before looking around at the townspeople and securing herself back in her corner. Thank goodness. If she were to come over here, it would only draw more suspicion as to why the resident recluse in the woods is staring at all these people…

“I know that look, Mag.”

I let gaze shift to Linus’ as his words resonate in my head and can practically feel my irises’ change of hue. I’ve been caught by him as well. Thank the spirits he’s a friend — he knows why I’m here.

“You do indeed.”

“So, (y/n), huh?”

Is that her name, then? It’s lovely…

“Yes,” I answer.

“Is it an attraction, or do you think she’s..?”

“Absolutely. Both.”

“Better get going before you freak her out, then.”

“As if I haven’t already, you know damn well she’s looking at me right now .”

He grins huffs out a silent chuckle before turning to face the dancers once more. “I’m just saying, you could be a tad bit more subtle, boy. Go.”

I sigh. I can still feel (y/n)’s eyes boring into me as I teleport back home, feeling morose rather than embarrassed.

Later in the evening, I succumb to my desire to more formally meet her and go through the lengthy, exhausting process of searching into the future.

I’m overjoyed to learn that she’ll come to me. That is far less pressure. It gives me time to prepare, too. To look more presentable, or clean, or… I don’t know. I know I can’t prevent the inevitable, but I don’t want to make the process unenjoyable for either of us, obviously.

When (y/n) eventually does arrive, I’m delighted to learn that not only is she an absolutely lovely being inside and out, but she’s magically inclined as well. I use this as a cover for her impulses to visit my tower:

“One may grow connected to the elements — hence, why you were so heavily drawn toward my abode over time,” I tell her.

It’s not entirely deceitful, and the last thing I want to do is scare her by proclaiming that our destiny brought us to this very moment.

I lean into being “old” and “wise” as well, referring to her and other townspeople of roughly her age as “young.” I overdo it though, I believe, as she calls me out on it. I don’t take any issue in revealing my true age given I’d likely be closer to her age — maybe a decade or so older — if I were a human.

I catch her staring a few times throughout our first meeting. I’ve no way to discern whether it’s due to attraction, or if she’s merely judging me, but it piques my curiosity either way. I probe her thoughts a few times for good measure — which (y/n) calls me out on as well, so I know now that I must show restraint. It’s mostly habitual, and I say that much. She understands.

She seems exceptionally sweet and caring. Awfully curious, for sure. A little strange too, but who am I to judge? I’m rather strange myself. And she’s funny, to boot, unless it’s my own giddiness leading me to assume so.

When she leaves, I’m sure to give her a proper send off. Perhaps it’s dramatic, but I’m inclined to believe she enjoys how eccentric this situation as a whole has been. She seemed awfully giddy herself, at times.

“There are many adventures ahead for you and I,” I project before she wanders too far. “I truly look forward to your company, (y/n).”

i started watching the movies (for the first time) after finishing reading the hobbit and lotr, and here is my take on the thirteen dwarves' design after seeing an unexpected journey:

thorin. why does he look like a model? it's not exactly uncanny valley (like a certain other drawf i will be mentioning later), but he still looks instantly out of place among most dwarves. i wish they at least did something wild to his beard. but he does look cool and my gay ass isn't immune to a hot guy, even if he probably shouldn't be hot, so i'll give you that. 6/10

balin. WHY IS HE SO FUCKING OLD? this feels like a hate crime. he is literally canonically younger than thorin, and he looks like he is one foot in the grave. like, i understand that they are both a little under 200 years old at this point, but pick a fucking struggle?? either make thorin look like an old wrinkly man as well, or make balin look younger. also, the design itself is boring as fuck. 2/10

bofur. this one is my favourite. he looks very cozy but also a little scary. he could be heading out the back with an axe to chop some wood for a nice little fireplace. he could also be an axe murderer. he's actually the sweetest dwarf you'll ever meet. he reminds me of my grandpa. 11/10

kíli. WHY THE FUCK IS HE YASSIFIED? he literally looks like what i imagined aragorn to look like while reading lotr. he barely has a beard, his hair is just... long. this is some fucking guy. not a dwarf. i do not care that he has a romance plot - you don't need to yassify a dwarf for him to be in a relationship with an elf, just ask gimli. 0/10

fíli. this is a solid design of a younger dwarf. he has more braids in his hair than i can count. he has a weird long ass mustache and it's also braided. i can see him growing into a more unhinged look that most dwarves clearly have as he becomes older. but i do feel like he was cleaned up a little for a lesser contrast between him and his brother. 7/10

ori. he looks very cute. his design instantly makes him stand out and i feel like i already know his personality just by looking at him (which is great for a trilogy with such a huge cast). he's a silly little dwarf. perhaps a little naive. must be protected. 10/10

nori. somehow, i feel like this was the last design they worked on. what is going on on that head. is he the inventor of middle earth hairspray? if he is, he's doing the worst possible thing he could with it. this isn't quirky or interesting - it just looks bad. the beard is kind of cool, but there is still something off with it. 4/10

dwalin. this guy is here to maim and kill. i feel like his haircut choice isn't even due to male pattern baldness. he just wanted as much hair as possible AND head tattoos. he found his look. he has a scar on his face. 10/10

glóin. i haven't seen lotr yet but i know what gimli looks like in the movies and the goal with gloin's design was clearly to make him look as much like gimli's dad as possible. this guy is already walking in his son's shadow, but i don't mind. overall, a solid dwarf look. i love the metal thingies in the beard. 8/10

dori. when i look at him, i have that "look at this distinguished gentleman" sound in my head. he's got a very intricate braiding situation going on in his hair, and i kinda love it. he has clip on piercings on both his ears and he has clearly constructed his whole look so he could show them off. 9/10

óin. we are evidently starting to run out of personalities, because this guy is also here primarily to maim and kill. to be fair, that's what a lot of dwarves are, so i'll allow it. i like the two giant beard braids - i'm pretty sure he has more facial hair than i have hair on my head, which is exactly the kind of impression a dwarf's beard should be giving. 7/10

bombur. he reminds me of obelix from the french cartoons. he has an entirely insane beard-works-as-a-moustache-extension situation going on as well as a huge circular braid which i can't even tell where that's coming from. it's a nice unique design. 8/10

bifur. he's got an orc axe stuck in his head. i forgot that was a detail in the book and i also did not understand what it was until i googled it. i thought it could just be an accessory choice. but i might just be stupid. i can, however, tell that he had an emo phase and he still meticulously dyes strands of his beard jet black, so he could have a trendy dark-and-silver look. 7/10

#i will never be over kili looking like that #this just isn't right #the hobbit #hobbit #middle earth #j.r.r. tolkien #archer speaks

thinking about. that yugioh pokemon fusion thats been rattling around in my head. its been a few days.

so like, i know that yugioh and pokemon games have just been a thing. who wouldnt match yugioh, a series about games, with one of the most popular game franchises in the world.

but like, there are very few fics where its yugioh characters who live in a pokemon world. the true pokemon au that yugioh dm deserves.

anyway im a puzzleshipping fiend (im not sorry) so things have been rattling around my brain for a while.

imagine:

atem, the undefeated pokemon champion, took the pokemon training and battling world by storm at a young age, his elite four are rumored to be the toughest that the pokemon world has seen in decades.

yuugi, a young man trying to popularize a new form of bonding/competing with your pokemon through collaborative games rather than head to head battle, who might also be atem’s childhood friend who then got yeeted to another region.

atem goes to visit another region for Pokemon Champ (TM) reasons and ends up running into yuugi’s grandpa’s shop. where yuugi happens to be hosting a demo or small competition for his new pokemon trainer games. idk what to call it. games where people compete with their pokemon but it isnt beating each other up. i think yuugi just doesnt like violence and ends up creating these games because he loves pokemon and bonding with them and games. i also think he should be able to keep his game designer roots in every au, he deserves it.

anyway, atem, who has been bored with pokemon battles lately, ends up joining. only to be faced with his old friend that he hasnt seen in years. and who he has been having a very very hard time forgetting (because pinning idk i just read romance not write it). but chooses to ignore that because yuugi also lowkey doesnt react to him at all. but he has fun! he has fun for the first time in a while! but then he has to leave because of Pokemon Champ Business (TM) and hes sad.

so cue his ace pokemon running away from him because atem has been Not Himself lately. as in being pokemon champion has changed him for the worse because pokemon politics ig??? im just pulling from my memories of “red being champion was not good for him so he runs away to a snowy mountain for years” fics because i feel like that applies. expect instead of running off to a mountain, atem just becomes really mean. and cruel. think s0 vibes. (ignore the fact that s0 atem was not that bad and hes honestly my favorite flavor of atem).

so atem’s ace pokemon have broken into the muoto family shop and yuugi is desperately trying to figure out how to contact atem to get them back. (yes he does rememebr atem, he just thought atem wouldnt care to be his friend again/forgot him, so he didnt really talk to atem during the day). cue um romance! and angst! and drama! and fluff!

idk i really like the canon yuugi-atem character arcs and dynamic. they build each other up and change each other for the better. i want that be come across in that au. even though i basically havent explained anything about it. i just really like the premise i set up for it. (no i probably will never write it, but i like sharing my thoughts). (feel free to write it if you want idk if people care enough for that tho lol).

atem is someone who has lost himself in the bitterness and cutthroat nature of the pokemon competitive battling circle, seeing people mistreat their pokemon and how there is so little of what made pokemon battling fun to him in the first place. and yuugi, who was lowkey ostracized for not being interested in the traditional pokemon battling culture even though he proved to be a really good pokemon trainer and battler, so he found solace in the games his grandpa would send him and share those with his pokemon. which then inspired him to create games that people could play with and along side pokemon, but he never had the confidence to introduce it to anyone past the small town he moved to after his parents’ divorce. (why am i putting all the yuugi backstory in here? idk hes just a kid with divorced parents, so his mom took him back to her home region to live with his maternal grandpa and changed his last name to his mother’s maiden name).

but then atem and yuugi meet again! different than they were as kids (i have more on that but idk where to put it), but nonetheless still them and they want to connect again but scared to reach out. until one stray ace pokemon forces them to connect again. atem is reminded of why he loved pokemon battling in the first place and sees it again in the games that yuugi creates. yuugi finds that confidence he needs to really spread his wings through atem’s influence and encouragement. theyre a dream team fr fr.

anyway final notes that i dont have a place to put:

atem’s elite four are his canon priests, idk how it would work but i think having mahad and mana on there would be hilairous

yuugi’s first pokemon and ace pokemon is a gengar nicknamed yami (as inspired by this post)

i like to think of it as baby yuugi being very lonely in a new region and ends up hanging around some of the more dusty corners of his grandpa’s shop, and then one night a stray ghastly pops by and used its smoke to copy his hair and theyve been inseparable since

yami is also insanely protective of yuugi and scared his bullies off for him, and was very very not happy about a powerful pokemon (atem’s ace pokemon) breaking into the shop to cuddle up with his partner

yami and yuugi definitely have a gengar megastone btw

also yuugi has a garchomp nicknamed gandora whose yami’s second in command. i just love gandora a lot pls understand i adore the idea of yuugi being a little guy who just casually summons Gandora The Dragon Of Destruction on his opponents

atem’s ace pokemon is a ghost type, idk im thinking cofagrigus, because, its fitting

he also has a legendary he can just call upon, it just likes him and atem gives it treats every time it shows up (idk which legendary tho, but giratina could be a fun choice)

the Gang (TM) are yuugi’s friends that he made after he moved to the new region and are fairly wary of atem at first, but like they warm up eventually because yuugi likes him

kaiba is there still, and very rich and techy at that, and also the yuugi’s region’s pokemon champion who constantly challenges atem to pokemon battles and lives in yuugi’s town

i like to think steven stone but kaiba, which is to say rich and still makes his incredibly advanced and insane tech, but also really good at pokemon battling

kaiba also really likes yuugi’s game btw, but he never participates because of his trauma (winning? winning in some lame game? no winning only counts if its in a pokemon battle, thats the only way i can show my worth and validate myself) (no kaiba-kun, you just need therapy and some friends, pls let me be your friend and we can play games together)

yuugi and atem were friends as kids and they bonded over their love of games and pokemon, really yuugi was the one who inspired atem to become a pokemon trainer and atem was the one who inspired yuugi to make games, but then the Divorce (TM) happened

no atem didnt go looking for yuugi, its been like 15 years, yuugi probably has his own life now and doesnt need a reminder from the past probably definitely yeah

i think that atem’s pokemon like yuugi more than they like atem

teehee yes im a sucker for that trope, sue me

yeah i like pokemon aus, so what. no but i think about this every now and then and it gives me serotonin, thus i share with you.

#yugioh dm #yugioh crossover #pokemon crossover #ygo pokemon crossover #the real question is if they are in an already existing region or if they are in a yugioh themed region #idk im really really bad at making pokemon teams #i just want a cute puzzleshipping fic where there are also pokemon #i think having ace cards are ace pokemon are fun #puzzleshipping #atem #yuugi mutou #sometimes i forget im a rival and flareshipper too #but then i write my bit about kaiba and go oooh there it is now time to rein myself in before i make this flareshipping #honestly it could be #it could also be rivalshipping if you just cut atem out of the picture

Imagine Isekai'd!reader getting turned back into a 5-7 year old because of Albedo and instead of being a shy, sweet child they’re a sassy, spoiled little devil that has no filter? Like they would literally look at Childe and comment about how he looks like a leprechaun but than look at Dainsleif and say that he looks like a handsome prince from her romance fantasy books💕

LMAOOOOOOOO A LEPRECHAUN!? 😭😭😭 Oh my gosh, if toddler Isekai'd!Reader was to call Childe that, not only will that hurt Childe's feelings, but that will make him want to fight toddler Isekai'd!Reader 😭 Like, why compliment a hot ass blond man named Dainsleif, but call Childe aka Tartaglia 11th Fatui Harbinger a leprechaun!? That will hurt his pride and once Isekai'd!Reader comes back to normal, he'll probably fuck some sense into the reader. While making sure that Dainsleif and the others hear it (oooh tiny spoiler for Crave 2).

I just know that Scaramouche will be calling Childe a leprechaun out of spite and for shits and giggles. I know that toddler Isekai'd!Reader will have favoritism among the men. Since toddler Isekai'd!Reader is a spoiled little devil, I can see them call Zhongli grandpa or old man. Xiao will be the scary one because he is always glaring at everyone around him. I can see toddler Isekai'd!Reader calling Itto a goat because of his horns, offending Itto in the process. Toddler Isekai'd!Reader will definitely call Gorou a puppy because of his ears and maybe pull on it when they're curious if the ears are real or not.

Overall 5/10 rating when Isekai'd!Reader is a toddler (rating came from Childe and Itto) because toddler Isekai'd!Reader is a handful and they have hurt other people's feelings for joy. While maybe stroking some egos within the process of offending Childe. You get a 10/10 rating from Scaramouche because now he has a good nickname to call Childe, thanks to you!

🧡 for a friendship-themed headcanon

🌇 for a headcanon about morning- or evening rituals

🎥 for a film/tv-themed headcanon

❓ for a headcanon of the receiver's choice

(if you don't feel like answering all four of these, just pick the one(s) you're most feeling!!)

// Friendship themed headcanon-

Drayton is, in general, a very friendly and sociable guy. He doesn't seem to treat his "Good friends" any differently than anybody else, other than the typical preference for spending his time with them, but the more you get too know him the less true you realize this is. Drayton has so many little things that he'll do to or for those he's close with that he won't with anyone else. He'll tease them more (It's meant lovingly, even if he doesn't realize he's struck a nerve), or give them half of a candy bar, or other things like that. Just a little bit of extra effort he won't put in for other people.

Morning and Evening ritual headcanon-

He really doesn't put much effort into "beauty" routines like skin or hair care, EXCEPT for shaving. He is so very particulate when it comes to that. Drayton will refuse to shave with anything except for a straight edge razor. He only uses one kind of shaving cream. The entire process is marked out, and it's probably the one thing other than his Pokemon's care that he simply won't skimp out on.

This all mostly boils down to the fact that Drayden was the one who taught Drayton how to shave, and with Drayden's luscious beard, that sort of thing is incredibly important to him. Drayton caught that from his Grandpa, and now it's incredibly important to him as well.

(On a slightly sillier note, he's definitely used Guilly's tusks as a makeshift razor before)

Film/TV themed headcanon-

One of Drayton and Iris's favorite activities to do when they're together is watch old Pokestar studio films. One of their top picks is the pokemon-world equivalent of the Godzilla movies, of course. Drayton absolutely makes everyone he knows watch all these old movies with him.

He also LOVES cheesy romances (Specifically, making fun of them).

A headcanon of my choice-

Drayton's grandmother was originally from Blackthorn city, and when she moved to Unova with Drayden she brought Dragonite with her.

Drayton and Yache, in a way, grew up together, though he didn't officially become he trainer until he was around eight years old, as opposed to Guilly, who he got when he was six. This is part of the reason why Yache is so protective and possessive of Drayton. He's her boy.

Yache is his second pokemon, and his Grandmother was the one who gave her to him. He named her, rather originally, after Yache berries, because the (At the time) Dratini had always been fond of them, and he liked his Grandmother's yache jam.

#OOC ask #//HAD A LOT OF FUN WITH THIS THANK YOU #//Genuinely have been waiting so long to have a chance to make the shaving thing relevant. Like actually though

It DOESNT MATTER if the Israelis' distant ancestors really came from Palestine

Leaving aside that "indigenous" in a political sense tends to mean "current victim of colonialism or post-colonial structures" and not "being originally from somewhere" (we don't usually call the French "indigenous") consider the following:

All Slavic people & their languages are thought to have originated in what is now Ukraine somewhere in the late middle ages and spread from there to everywhere they live today. Does that mean I can kick a Ukranian out of his house because I have a czech grandpa?

All the Bantu peoples are thought to have originated roughly in what is today Cameroon. Can any west or central African speaking a Bantu language kick out someone in Cameroon from their house? Or even a black person from the USA or the Caribbean?

All the Germanic Peoples originated from Jutland peninsula (what is today Denmark & some bits of Northern Germany.) - can a guy in England, Austria or the USA kick a Dane out of his house?

The people of Australia, Canada, the eastern USA & to a lesser extent South Africa (where many alre also descended from Netherlanders) are all descended from the English. Can they all come to England & kick an English farmer out of his house?

(they can, however, still in practice sometimes get an unfair advantage over Hawaiians & Puerto Ricans, or put a pipeline or mine through a Native American or Australian Aboriginal's home, or expropriate a black person to build a highway... at least there its not based on directly racist laws, in theory a rich POC could do it too.But in practice the result still often screws locals for short-sighted business ventures, so there is some stuff to be fixed still...)

The Romance languages all descend from Latin. Can any Italian kick ppl out out of everything that used to be Roman, including France, England and Bavaria?

Can any Greek kick someone out out of everything that used to be the Byzantine Empire?

Spain belonged to the Islamic empire for a long time. Can a Moroccan go kick a Spanish person out of his house?

Spain does give Spanish nationality to south american spaniards, (to attract skilled workers & fix low population growth), which I know cause my dad insisted on getting it due to patriotic feeling, but while he could buy a house there & vote, he cannot kick anyone out. Not even out of the exact village where his ancestors lived just 100 years ago.

Heck, the czech grandpa I mentioned? His family was expropriated when Communism took over. After communism, my mom & her siblings got an offer to get their farm/house back, but ONLY if they find the ppl currently living in the house an equivalent place.

It turns out there was a family of Romani ppl living there & it would be hard to find them a big house due to housing discrimination - my mom & her siblings just decided to let them keep the house since they were actually using it & none of us was planning to move to rural czechia. It seemed mean to kick out ppl who are being discriminated & had themselves lived there for decades now, after all we have our own places. (and my mom has, like, a painting of the town's church hanging in her living room & remembers living there as a little girl, & has stories about it, including some lewd jokes about the shape of the mountains.)

They should probably do a similar program in Palestine, where Palestinian families can get still-standing houses back or $$ for rebuilding destroyed villages, but the current inhabitants get provided for. Though probably the state should have to find them a new place, not impoverished Palestinians themselves. In the communist expropriation example, chances are the original owner was richer than the current one, which is different in Palestine.

Let us also consider the difference between conquest & immigration.

Conquest means you disrupt the social order & impose your own rules. This is clearly what was done in Palestine.

Immigration is different - I'm all for the right to immigrate & for ppl to live where they want, but immigrating means you fold yourself into an existing society & follow the laws there. (many ppl explicitly immigrate to places where they like the laws more)

The problem is not jewish ppl living in Palestine because they want to live in the land of their distant ancestors, but rather taking over & oppressing everyone else.

No one would mind my dad going to live in Spain where his ancestors lived. Indeed they would probably rejoice, he is a skilled worker & pays lots of tax. But if he came with an army, rebranded the country "new Cuba", demanded that everyone speak Latin American Spanish & started oppressing the local farmers, that would be a very different issue.

Though of course I wonder how many ppl care more about special treatment & free stuff than they do about religion or "connection to the land". Many might end up going to some gated community in the USA if they have to be equal citizens with no special privileges.

to continue from last night

Antonio Gonzalez Born and raised along the US-Mexican border in Texas. 3 of 4 kids, and the third son. Grew up shadowing his brothers' every move, and getting into heaps for trouble for it. Intense middle child syndrome. In high school, hard the shortest fling ever with one of the popular girls in school (she was using him). Resulted in her getting pregnant, and learned he was the father when baby daughter was left at his doorstep in the middle of the night as the new teen mother was being sent off to her relatives in Mexico. Became a teen parent, and was subsequently (temporarily) kicked out of the house for it. Eventually got let back in but was basically grounded for the rest of his life. Bid his time until graduation, and then took himself and his daughter to his eldest brother's place in San Antonio, where they lived with him for several years until Toni finally got the money to move out. During that time, his parents hounded him to come home and at least give them back the baby, but he refused, and wanted to be anywhere but there. Ends up instead in a cute little town in the Northeast, just as about as far away as he could get from his family. 'Course, now he's on his own for the first time ever with no one to fall back on, and trying his best to be independent while raising his daughter alone.

Vincent Fox Born and raised in that sickeningly sweet, cutsie little tourist town in the northeast. Family goes back a few generations as farmers. Dad runs the farm while Mom handles everything in town. The younger of two sons. Grandpa lived with the family and took care of him the most when he was little. Sadly, Grandpa passed away while Vincent was still young, and he hasn't really been the same since. Inherited his grandfather's mischievous streak, the Fox family "curse". Basically had no friends growing up because he was an insufferable smart ass who couldn't be serious about anything. His only actual friend was a girl who's family came to vacation in town every summer, and they would spend the whole summer causing trouble. It was kind of a relief for his family to eventually send him off to a college that was far enough away that he wouldn't be back so soon. Vincent thrived in college, actually applying himself for once. A brief romance with one of his peers resulted in her falling pregnant, and without even really thinking, he proposed to her on the spot. They got married, and Vincent dropped out to get a regular 9-5 job. He was a very attentive father, absolutely adored their son. He wasn't a bad father, and certainly not a bad husband either. He was just very emotionally unavailable towards his wife beyond a basic, surface level. He was actually pretty blindsided when after 8 years she was ready to move on. It probably hurt her more that he didn't even fight it, just quietly packed up his bags and headed back to his hometown, ready to sign whatever papers needed so he could still get some part-time custody of their son.

It's in the middle of all this moving and shuffling around, when during the summer, their kids end up playing at the park together, and two worlds finally collide....

#kel talks #idek what to call this story #or to tag them as #but it's them!!!!

I started a new sdv save

so of course, I have a new oc! His name is Rian (ree-anne), and I'm planning to romance Elliott, Alex, Sam, and my boy Seb. Also, I'll probably get Harvey and Shane just for shits and giggles, and because I wanna watch the "dating all the bachelors" cutscene, then break up with them cuz like i ain't marrying them, I just wanna see the cutscene. I'll have some art of him and Milo and Toby (my other OCs, their very own posts coming soon!). I also have a lesbian character named Lydia, who I haven't played much since i realized I was trans, but I'll probably resume playing with her soon.

Anyway!! Lore!

Rian spent his last 2 years before aduIthood in Stardew Valley with his grandparents. It wasn't that his parents WEREN'T alive. It was that they disowned him. He had come out as lesbian, put through conversion ccamp, and by the age of 16, had come as nonbinary (stepping stones). He knew he would face rejection and a lack of acceptance, but he wasnt expecting to be told he was meant to sleep outside. Now, in stardew valley, that might be safe, but in Zuzu? Absolutely not.

He left, took a Suber (in universe Uber name lmao) to Stardew Valley, somewhere he hadnt been in years. He met some friends his age, Sam and Alex, as well as had his first really intense crush---Harvey, the only doctor in town, who was about a decade older than him at the time. What could he say, the hot doctor energy was too strong.

When his grandmother passed, it shook his life. He had to undergo 2 years of therapy to cope with her loss, as well as all the trauma he'd undergone with his parents. By that time he was in college out of country, something he'd always dreamed of doing. He came out as trans to his friends, and began the long route to transition. He was lucky. He got his first T injection in under two years, at this time 22, a sophomore in college. His celebration was cut short when he was called in to his grandfathers hospital bedside, and eventually had to take care of him for all of winter break, as well as the first fewlectures to plan his funeral when he finally passed away.

Surpressisng all of his grief, he moved through college, pushing away his friends and boyfriend for his studies and finally, it all paid off when he got the position at Joja Co. That he had always dreamed of.

The joy wore off quick, and by 25, he was done. He was on the verge of just staying home until he lost his job and starved to death, when he remembered the old envelope his grandpa had given him on his death bed.

The old farm he loved so much as a teen... Was his?

This was great news! This was the spark he needed to keep living.

He quit his job and packed up quick, getting the soonest bus to Stardew Valley.

When he finally arrived, it seemed the town had lost its life. There was, however, a very attractive writer who had just moved in.

He walked up to Alex, about to say something he would've said back in the day, when he was hit with, "so you must be the new farmer guy."

No one recognised him.

And he didn't particularly wish to tell them.

This was his fresh start. He would make the most of this.

so yep thats Rian! Hope you're interested because I want to do... something with him.

#sdv farmer #sdv elliott #sdv sam #sdv sebastian #sdv alex #everyone is gay #including farmer #they just homosexual yk???#nothing wrong with kissin boys #farmer #stardew Valley #new file!!!#oc

8 Shows To Get To Know Me:

fuck okay lemme break this down and y’all can’t fucking judge me for NOTHING

Glee

*fucking sigh*

LOOK I’m not happy about this shit either but if we gotta be real I’ma be real and say yeah, I was a gleek (god saying that makes me wanna die, a piece of my soul shriveled fuck) when I was in high school it was a time okay I’m putting it on the list because glee was the reason I even logged on tumblr for the first time glee was one of those shows that was extremely formative to my fandom experience and fandom development during those late teen years. My original tumblr blog was dedicated to glee and eventually to manga/anime/comics and then I dipped for a bit and came back to tumblr blah blah blah glee was the start of my tumblr experience but also was the first time I ever actively engaged in a ship war (Which was STUPID i was so STUPID) like before I was a lurker but glee was the first show I openly participated in fandom

and it’s a dumb show, it’s a bad show, it has some shining moments but lordly it was a mess and I was so invested in Britanna and Klaine at the beginning but by the end I was like they should NOT be together and honestly proud of myself for that it showed ~growth~ I also dropped the show idk mid-s4? Glee was the show that made me learn to drop things and not get caught up in sunk cost fallacy, if you’re not happy watching something, drop it.

Inu-yasha

THIS FUCKING SHOW this show was my first taste of any fandom ever I was still in elementary school and honestly way to young to be watching this shit but my GOD did I eat this shit up like nom nom nom it was so good hit all the fantasy action points it basically created the template for what I like in media: romance, action, adventure, friendships, fantasy

I can still hear that adult swim commercial for the series in my head, one of the original memes (also screw kikyo still can’t stand her ass)

Yugioh

LISTEN this is a comfort show I love it to pieces Yugioh the abridged series is a fucking masterpiece I’ve rewatched this show so many times b/c it’s just fucking fun it makes NO SENSE why are they all so serious about ~children’s card games~ why does no one go to school why does grandpa have a god damn stroke after losing one card game why does joey sound like that it’s hilarious the shadow realm gaslit an entire generation of children I love every second of it

RUN BTS

uuuuuh, is this cheating? fuck it I don’t care, you can’t control my shit as they say idk I love BTS I love their run episodes when I want to relax, chill and not think and laugh for a bit I throw the tomato song one on lol the memes that come out of every episode are worth it for that alone

Kinnporsche

okay here’s what y’all came here to see lmao Kinnporsche really grabbed my ass and slapped it like wtf I wasn’t expecting to get so invested in this show tbh b/c like I started watching BLs again but the ones I had watched from Thailand hadn’t GRABBED me they all ranged at the time from okay but wouldn’t watch again (Until We Meet Again, 1000 Stars) to boring-dropped it (Fish Upon a Sky, 2gether, Lovely Writer) the ones I had liked were mostly Korean and Taiwanese offerings (HiStory Trapped, Love is Science, We Best Love (seasons 1 AND 2 fight me), Be Loved: In House, You Make Me Dance, the one Korean assassin one).

So like, I saw the trailer for KP and was like, oh that looks different and interesting from other Thai BL and then I saw it was canceled and was confuse. Then I saw it was un-cancelled and was MORE confused I was like is this show coming out or nah? But it was and I was like, sure why not? And I had just restarted using tumblr again and then the show started and the first episode HIT SO HARD and I was like “omg actual cinematography, actual camera framing, actual directing, actual locations, actual physical movement of the cast and the story, a larger story at play, COSTUMES” bitch I was hooked and I’m probably bias but KP is still the best conceptually executed Thai BL imo like sometimes I see posts about the cinematography of other Thai BL and it’s just pictures of two chars standing in a mid-lit room and I’m just like, god I’m a snobby ass bitch lemme leave lol

KP isn’t perfect, there are issues with the plot at times, but like, there’s issues with the plot! Not the sound (rip LITA I still love you), or the lighting, or the editing, or the direction. The secondary cast actually feels like a cast rather than extras to fill out the cast or pad for time there’s like next to no filler in the show which is such a rarity (imo) for Thai BL.

Love Between Devil and Fairy

To me this show was peak fantasy epic romance I just love it to pieces, the costumes are to die for I wish America made more epic romances like this that really embrace fantasy, romance, and action one thing I really love about C-Dramas is they embrace romance with a certain sincerity that is missing from American dramas and I think it’s a shame

I’m cheating that’s all I got in me I don’t watch a ton of TV shows and the ones I do I’m picky about so it’s hard to pick like a top anything lol but I think these ones describe me pretty well so

Sorry for being to late, but i saw your response to a ask about Encanto characters being OOC. I and finally have found someone who thinks like me 😪😪😪😪 like, okay people can think whatever they like, but I cant bring myself to think that Pepa was that rebellious and wild in her younger years or that she and Felix would do intercourse before marriage.

Common, it was the 20s (in south america) even non-religious (because I think of them as catholic) ladies waited for the marriage. I doubt that even in 50s, any of Madrigal daughters and nieces would do that too. Like, my grandma (brazilian) married my grandpa in the 70s and was only able to kiss him on the wedding ceremony.

So, my ask, how do ya think Juli and Pepa were in her teens/young adult years.

Hey! Oh well Anon, I don't really have any thoughts on young triplets buuuuuut...

Well, I do think Pepa was rebellious, but not in the sexual sense. She might have gone just against Alma's wishes or be like "oh, let's drink and party!" and then have the worst hangover ever, or "let's dance and get back home late!", but nothing that would cross the line. And I think having sex before marriage is something that would cross the line (as you said, it's the '20s in rural, mostly Catholic Colombia, after all). Not to mention Pepa would be probably terrified of getting pregnant out of wedlock because of the possible consequences of that (the gossip in town, their parents' anger and disappointment, probably the elevating talk with the priest and so on). She seems too anxious to even start that, to be honest.

I think many people consider that people who come from very religious families and have premarital sex, like, reach the peak of rebellion doing that, and that's it's so... freeing. Making someone maybe even more interesting, or more human, but I think you can save these things for after marriage and still be an adventurous, rebellious soul. The sexual sphere of life has nothing to do with your personality, damn it. Pepa still can be that crazy, funny, rebellious aunt even if she waited until marriage.

So, while Pepa might like to spite Alma and do many of the "forbidden" things, Julieta at this point was rather calm. She was fully committed to helping the town and perfecting her cooking skills, and she didn't exactly think about romances. I hc Julieta to not be that much of a dancer until she met Agustin. It was him who freed that small careless part of Julieta's soul that was kept hidden because of the expectations had upon her. She liked parties but mostly because of food and listening to music, and she used to be home on time, unlike Pepa who tended to often come home later because she "lost track of time" as she always would tell Alma.

I think as teenagers, all the triplets might have been more or less rebellious, though not in the modern sense, and surely not when it came to sex. As young adults, their personalities got softer, they became more "responsible" and careful, and whatever they did (aside from fighting) they never went too far.

How do you feel about Gobul? And how do you think it would’ve played out through the series?

readmore cause I talked too much lol

I never disliked the idea of Gobul and I embrace it far more now than I did when I was younger (having seen dbz before db), but yeah I honestly think they're cute together. I just accepted everything I saw as a kid and kept rolling to get to the next fight so I do love their canon dynamic more than anything because it feels like how they're supposed to be, but I wouldn't lose my mind if things played out differently and they wound up as a couple instead.

Goku and Bulma have love for each other whether it's just old friends or like family, it's not crazy if wound up being more and they lived happily ever after. I don't think anyone outside of Bulma (and Krillin) understands Goku the most so being his rich, fiesty wife and loyal best friend respectfully just fills out everything he would need to just keep doing what he doing anyways. Even their kids are best friends, they may as well be brothers by blood! That being said I do not vibe with TrvnksxG0ten or TrvnksxG0han or TrvnksxP4n or anything involving Mai

Gobul could still have Gohan after Piccolo Jr is defeated, and then later on Trunks and/or Goten (twins maybe?). Probably Trunks for the android timeline. Gohan would still be a scholar of some sort with his genius mom and grandpa, but still kind like his dad and grandma and probably still strong af since they never address his rage boost (we know it comes from Chi Chi toei just give us the truth already)

Plus romance doesn't matter in db, we know it's just to give them something to do off-screen/downtime/for comic relief until the next big thing happens. Bulma would be at Goku's neck the same way Chi Chi was, she'd still bonk him on his head and call him out on his impulsive judgment calls, but because she is often more involved with the bad things that happen then she may be less confrontational about training their kids and understanding towards their saiyan instincts.

So I don't think too much of the series would be different up until the 7 year time skip and of course how Trunks handles coming back to the past to meet Goku and give him the heart virus antidote. Even if he doesn't tell him they're his mom and dad goku shows his instincts are good at reading people around that time so he'll trust him. Or Trunks could just tell Piccolo, Krillin or Yamcha to ensure he is born

WIP Intro: The Babysitter's Here

The Babysitter's Here is an adult romance novella.

Will Moore comes back to his home town four years after running away from home as a teen. He reunites with his siblings and his best friend. But to his surprise his ex-boyfriend Nicky is there to welcome him back too - accompanied by his almost four year old son Seong-Min.

Will is looking for a job back home, thinking about getting his G.E.D., regretting his choices, et cetera. Nicky's wife offers him a babysitting gig, and despite his better judgement Will takes the job. Seong-Min is just too cute to resist. And there's a lot of unfinished business between Will and Nicky that Will would like to put to rest, if they can.

Mature, M/M, Non-Graphic Violence, Happily Ever After, 3rd Person Limited Alternating POV, Present Tense. Getting Back Together, Kidfic, Infidelity, Polyamory Negotiations, Unconventional Relationships, Homophobia, Sexual Situations, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Coming Out.

Excerpt:

It's only when Will knocks on the door a little later that Nicky realizes the only person he didn't get out of the house is himself. He immediately panics, looks down at himself to see if he can let Will in, act like he's in a hurry, and just fucking leave. But of course all he's wearing is an old t-shirt, boxers, and the fucking Ugg slippers he stole off some west county grandpa when he was fourteen. Will knocks again, and Nicky realizes - fucking Christ - the t-shirt actually used to be Will's. Fuck. But there's not really any putting it off now, so Nicky bites the bullet and gets the door. Will looks just as unhappy to see Nicky as he did the first time. Nicky feels his cheeks start to get hot when Will's eyes flick down and widen just a little when he sees, and apparently remembers, the t-shirt Nicky's wearing. Whatever. It's not like Nicky's never been a thief before. You could call stealing his first job. If Will wants the shirt back he'll have to fucking ask for it, and Nicky will just act like he doesn't remember it was Will's, like he didn't originally keep it for exactly that reason. To wear it and think of him. Nicky will probably still keep it, even if Will says something. So there. All Nicky says out loud is, "Hey." "Um. Hey," Will says back. He stares at Nicky like he's waiting for something, but Nicky doesn't know what he wants or how to give it to him. It's always been like that, from the first second Nicky realized he wanted more than just sex between them but couldn't make the first move. Couldn't make any move. All he can do now is shift awkwardly, clear his throat, shrug one shoulder. "Didn't need me at work," is his lame explanation for the fact that he's not dressed to go anywhere and clearly doesn't need a fucking babysitter. "Oh," says Will, and takes a step back. "I guess I'll go then-" "Don't-" Nicky's voice catches in his throat on the word, the one word he'd said to Will when Will had told him he was going to run away, when Will had only wanted Nicky to ask him to stay. He could toss himself off a fucking bridge. He's had over four years and he still can't get the rest of the sentence out. Will's eyes snap to his - waiting. Waiting, always waiting for Nicky to do something right. But even now Nicky can't manage it. "Myeong-Suk already told the kid you were coming," he lies instead, and steps inside in a silent invitation for Will to come in.

Progress: 6k words of a goal of 25k, draft #2.
