Hello!oh my god, Your stories are so amazing!!! May I request for Luxiem headcanon with reader as their roommates? Thank you so much btw :D
authors note: thank you so much my love, i'm glad you enjoy my work !! thank you for your request i hope you enjoy ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡) if you would like something more specific (such as roommate!luxiem realising their crush on you or sumn) feel free to request honey !!
all writing is mine and mine only !! no reposting ,,, this isnt proofread very well sorry for any mistakes or typos !
characters: vox akuma; mysta rias; ike eveland; luca kaneshiro; shu yamino
⋆。゚☁︎。⋆。 ゚☾ ゚。⋆
˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗ luxiem as roommates ˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗
ʚɞ vox akuma ʚɞ
i think vox would be a lovely roommate, he's very kind and cleans up after himself, and is always there when you need someone to rant or gossip to, he loves hearing about the drama in your friend group or what your coworker did
when he's streaming, he tries his best to make sure he streams when you're not sleeping, but even still he makes sure to stay quiet so he doesn't disturb you as he knows how hard you work ;;;;
vox is a (not so secret) sweetheart, so he definitely pays attention to your likes and dislikes, so expect to find your favourite snacks or drinks in the fridge
especially after he's loud during a stream (or after one of his.... explicit asmr streams....)
you are definitely the first person vox goes to whenever he wants to talk about anything and everything, or get drunk and have a karaoke night and play smash bros together
possibly one of the best roommates you could ever ask for he's such a sweetheart
more under the cut!
ʚɞ mysta rias ʚɞ
mysta is a bombshell of a roommate ;;;;;
you both have an unspoken agreement that you do all the work in the kitchen, after the rice cooker incident ...
you have a note on the fridge that says "0 days since kitchen incident"
however!! despite this, mysta holds you close to his heart and appreciates you, so he tries his best to be a good friend and roommate.
he can be very loud at times so he tries to make his schedule around yours, so whenever you are out of the house he streams so he doesn't disturb you ( •̯́ ^ •̯̀)
when you first moved in, mysta would be very shy and hesitant to open up, so you could go days without seeing him, all because he didn't want to cause you any trouble or disturb you
he first opened up and became your friend when you were watching a movie together, in which you continued to have a movie night every week as much as you can, and mysta loves these movie nights with his whole heart and buys both of your favourite snacks beforehand
you once caught him trying to make a blanket fort in front of the tv ;;;;
he wasn't able to look you in the eye for a while after that he was too embarrassed (୨୧• ꒳ •)=:♡
ʚɞ ike eveland ʚɞ
living with this novelist is like living with a ghost .... you don't see him often, but every now and then you notice the dishes are suddenly cleaner, theres drinks missing from the fridge, and there's food for you in the fridge to heat up
but!! when you do see him, it's like making eye contact with the sun. ike is such a sweet roommate and listens to your likes and dislikes, talking about games or movies or anything possible, in which he recommends you books or games he think you'll like
ike is definitely the type to buy you books he sees and think you will like, and will sit them by your door with a sticky note on it saying "i think you might like this, lets talk about it once you have read it ! -ike ♡ "
because you don't see him around the house often, you bond most whenever you go shopping together, whether its for food for the house or just shopping in general.
he would quietly watch as you browse the snacks isle, the feeling of happiness sinking in as he realises he couldn't have asked for a better roommate (❀❛ ֊ ❛„)♡
ʚɞ luca kaneshiro ʚɞ
luca is in between the absolutely insane roommate or the best roommate you could have
luca wakes up early and goes for runs, even asking you if you want to join him (to which you reply with a glare..)
if you do decide to join him on his runs, he will show you the biggest smile you have ever seen on a human because he is excited to bond with you. he would even take more breaks than he usually does and go slower just so he can talk with you and learn more about you◝(ᵔᵕᵔ)◜
luca also often invited you to work out with him, go shopping with him, or just play games with him. luca loves to spend time with you and thinks of you of one of his best friends ( ⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝)
he often checks up on you if you havent come out of your room in a while, making sure you are drinking and eating well, patting your head on his way out
luca definitely urges you to come out of your room more often, but he doesn't do this to annoy you he just wants to make sure you're taking care of yourself and doing well
he sometimes sits in your room on your bed if you are playing games on your computer with friends, keeping quiet and doing his own thing, just liking your presence
he's the cutest mafia boss ever (ㅅ´ ˘ `)
ʚɞ shu yamino ʚɞ
another ghost that haunts your house ....
we know his sleep schedule is chaotic as ever but he still tries his best to take time out of his schedules to check up on you, because he still wants to maintain his relationship with you
tries to get you things he thinks you'll like whether it be snacks or ... a microwave .. ?
definitely cleans up after himself, sometimes even acting like a mother and going in to clean YOUR room
is going to bed whenever you are going to work in the morning, but he still makes sure to pat your head, say goodbye and wish you a good day
in the short span of time that you are awake at the same time, he offers to watch your favourite shows with you, or even just cook together, chatting away about how your day at work was
another one that acts like he knows what you are talking about when you gossip about drama in your workplace or friend group, but he loves how dramatic you tell stories hehe (❀´ ˘ `❀)
thank you for reading have a good day lovely!!

How about some crack, mc goes around bonking everyone on the head saying “bonk of friendship” their also very smol,
I have no words. This is beautiful my love- just *chef’s kiss*
I didnt know if you wanted the brother or the whole cast, so i just did the bros btw
GN Mc giving the sins the ‘bonk of friendship’
Lucifer
Lucifer was doing his work, in his study
And nobody knows how the heck to get in said study room, because you need to get in via a correct phrase, which no one knows
Apart from mammon
Hell, lucifer doesn’t know that mammon knows either
Now, mammon doesn’t go around telling everyone the password to the study, he can keep a secret mkay
But you are special
Mammon got bribed. You know owe him a years worth of cuddles.
He given you the password which was the name of lucifer’s favourite classical piece.
Now you were dead set on completing your mission
You opened the door to the study, and you saw lucifer typing some things onto a laptop
The man was very sleep deprived – you could tell in his eyes
Like each eye was blinking on different times
His eyes are like U👄👁
And that almost made you feel bad for what you were about to do
Key word : Almost
You made your way to lucifer, walking with absolute confidence
Your fist was ready and you raised it over your head annd
Bonk
Lucifer didn’t even blink
He just stopped typing
Turns his head and looks at you with so much disappointment
He blinked slowly
“Why?”
That was it. You were expecting him to have a better reaction, but oh well
“That was a bonk of friendship, luci”
“But… why?”
You knew the man needed some sleep when he didn’t tell you to ‘sToP CaLLinG mE LuCI’
😬 you need to get him some coffee my guy he’s way too out of it
Mammon
After you made the old man some coffee and forced him to sleep cuz you felt bad, you went after your next victim
Mammon who is defo not my favourite what you talking about
Normally, you wouldn’t attack him like this
But he unfortunately for him was teasing you cuz you were ✨short✨
So, just like satan told you, revenge is best served cold 🙂
So you found mammon, who was munching on some rice, and you decided this is a great time to attack him
You’re just standing in the door way like 🧍‍♀️
And you locked eyes with mammon
If mammon hates anything, its always eye contact
So he slowly is getting anxious cuz ‘ what the fuck did i do now? Why the heck are they staring at me like that?’
You’re both just staring at each other like 👁👄👁
🎶Prolonged eye contact 🎶
You walked up to him, slowly, and mammon thought he was gonna have a heart attack
Fully stopped eating so he wont choke on his food
You’re now leaning over the table and mammon be like 🎱👄🎱
MC stop your giving the poor guy heart palpitations
Never has any horror movie scared the daylights out of him like this before
And you just smile at him like 😀 ‘hey mammon’
Mammon felt his soul ascend – he’s scared shitless
‘🙂 hey’
What have you done mc, look he’s got anxiety
You needed to calm him down so you were gonna pet his head
Mammon sees your hand coming to his head and this guy flinches
Well you’re gonna have to have a ‘chat’ with lucifer but thats for another day
He lets you stroke his hair, and he slowly calms down
And your smile became evil
You pet his head on last time and
Bonk on his head
‘Oiii the fuck was that for?!’
Oh no he’s pouting
‘Bonk of friendship mams’ is what you said
‘Awww mc 😊’
‘That was also revenge for you calling me short’
Annnd he’s pouting again
‘But mc it was only teasing– mc wAiT’
You owe him two years worth of cuddles now
Leviathan
After you scared mammon shitless, you decided to go and find a new victim
Target found : levi
This guy was doing what he normally does, gaming
But he was in a gamers rage
No way you were gonna get caught in his rage
First of all, he may take 50 years of your life away, you dont want that
So you waited for him to calm down. That took three hours
Now you’re pissed, because he wasted your time, and time is money mammons antics is rubbing off of you
So you walk up to him and he looks at you
Damn him
You say nothing and you walk up to him
You know how some cats just stare at you unblinking whenever you move?
Ye thats what he’s doing and it was getting creepy
You stand in front of him. Thats it
‘Err- you good?’
You raise your hand
Bonk. Mission accomplished
Levi is now blinking veery slowly
He looked confused ngl
Babes he needs an explanation
So you do
Le gasp ‘You think of me … as a friend?!!!’
Pls he’s precious
‘Yes i do levi’
Cue happy snek noises -wait is he purring?
He’s a bit too happy cuz he accidentally turned into his demon form and his tail is wagging- wait nope it has curled itself around your waist
Aww look at him isnt he adorable
Ye btw ya cant move anymore you’re on his lap and he’s hugging you
So now you’re stuck
This is your life now
Dont you dare move you monster
Satan
Our precious snek boi let go of you to watch another series that just dropped
So, after you had your serotonin boost, you made your way to the resident cat/demon
He, too, committed the crime of teasing your height. Which was uNacCEpTAblE
You thought he was an ally, but i guess you cant trust even your friends
So you start trekking to the mans room
Well would you look at that, he ain’t even here
Next stop: the library
He isn’t here either
Thats strange
Theres only one place you haven’t checked mc
You went outside and there was that twat
He was pretty much baby talking to a cat
You pulled your phone out and started recording
Yes this is revenge and le video is for blackmail
Once you’ve had enough evidence
You walk up to the man
Shoulders rolled back
Head held high
Fist raised above your head
✨Le bonk✨
The baby talking stopped
Satan is just sitting there with a blank face
You know how you always explain that the bonk is a blessing is a bonk of friendship
Yeah you didn’t say shit
So you’re standing there, fist still on his head
The cat runs away
That all you need to know
You officially fucked up MC how you gonna get outta this one
You leg it
Thats it. You took off
He’s tailing you
He’s coming closer
Time for the big guns
‘It was a bonk of friendship’ you say
He says ‘imma give you my own bonk of friendship c’mere’
Yeaah no nope not happening
Time for the other big guns
‘I have a video of you baby talking to a cat’
He stops running and walks the other way
‘Ye thats what i thought bitch’
Ye he heard you
Good luck. You’ll need it
Asmodeus
After you said that unnecessary comment, you legged it to asmo’s room
And you remembered your mission
Target: found
Now, asmo was just minding his business
He was doing his hair, face mask on, talking about some gossip he heard in the fall
I don’t know why you would try bonk his head
While he has a hair mask on
But you don’t care do you? You do
You were not going to touch whatever abomination is in his mask not without gloves
And there were no gloves
So you had to wait im afraid
Two hours later, asmo’s hair was dried, styled and looking like absolute ✨heaven✨
It made you feel bad, but, you gotta do what you gotta do
So you came up behind him
‘Yes MC, what do you need dear? Is the mask irritating your skin?’
Damn Asmodeus and his bloody mirrors
And you also forgot that you had a god forsaken mask on
So now you have to wait even longer
And obviously to pass time, you decided not to be suspicious and just let asmo do whatever on you
And boii who knew he was amazing at massaging
All them knots and tenses in your muscles were now gone
So now you’re a puddle of goo on his bed
Which almost made you forget your mission
But you didn’t
Creeping up behind him, you made sure there were no mirrors to ruin your plan.
Now MC, you aren’t going to mess his hair thats not the point. You just have to give him a bonk
So you raised your fist, stopped middway, uncurled your hand, and placed your flat hand on his head
You messed his hair up
Asmo is eerily silent.
You look at his face and his eyes are widened
He also has a little smile on his face
He is now in his demon form
I warned you but you didn’t listen did you
Mission accomplished unsuccessfully : you are running from your victim
Beelzebub
You will now hide away from the hoes that are still chasing after you with beel
Satan and Asmo are the hoes [they joined forces good luck]
Beel is working out
Doing push ups without using his hands – those are holding his waffles
Yeah he makes all them gym bros look weak af
But this ain’t about gym bros, this is about you and your mission
But your stomach had other plans
And now that waffle in beel’s hand be looking very appetising
‘You want it MC? Here I have more’
People who share their food are amazing and i love you
So you both are munching on your food
And your stomach is satisfied
Beel is still working out and is eating a sandwich god knows where he got it from
You shall now commence with the bonking
You’re already sitting next to him, so all you have to do is raise your fist and bonk his head
And so you do
The guy has not even flinched
I don’t think he felt it
Guess you’ll have to try again
So you bonk his head again
And beel still doesn’t feel a thing
The mans head is made out of steel
So you try bonking his head again
But this time he notices
And says that punches like that wont do any harm
And he decided that you need to be taught how to punch properly so that you can defend yourself from demons
‘I was just trying to give you a bonk of friendship, beel,’ you deadpanned
‘Oh’
Beel is now happy
He gives you a pat of friendship cuz we both know if he bonked you, you would be expired
‘Do you still want to learn how to punch properly, MC?’
Yeaah no getting out of this one
Beel is a menace as much as he is sweetheart
He does lowkey want to see you beat the heck out of people
Belphegor
After you went through what was definitely called military training
You went to find your new target
And there he was, sleeping as usual
This was definitely gonna be a piece of cake
Or so you thought
This fuck opened one of his eyes and stared at you
Staring into your soul
You were getting creeped out
Plan B
You walk up to him and he’s still staring at you
You sit on his bed, and start patting his hair
Now belphie is sighing in content
‘MC, do you know why satan is mad?’
Well shit
‘I don’t know, i didn’t see him today’
Hopefully he bought that excuse
‘Mkay’
He goes back to sleep
How are going to bonk him
Belphie doesn’t like it when he gets forced to wake up
I mean, he pretty much ended a lot of careers and lucifer banned everyone from speaking about speaking about that incident
Poor guy gets flashbacks from it
Well you don’t fear a mere cow
Thats a lie
But you’ll be damned if you don’t try at least
So you pat his hair down
His hair looks greasy but its real soft like what the heck
I guess we forgot he lives with asmo
So you continue patting his hair
Bonk
You look down at him and see that he’s staring at you again
‘Why did you wake me up?’
You can’t run MC, just answer him
‘That was a bonk of friendship’
‘Oh okay’
You pretend not to see it, but his cheeks were tinted red
He didn’t really think that you would consider him a friend after everything that he done to you
He really appreciates it, MC
And he’s now purring
‘MC sweetie where are you’
Well shit
You forgot about those two
‘Is that not asmo?’
‘Yes belphie it is’
So belphie decided to just sit there and wait
And the door to the attic bursts open and theres the fourth and firth born in their demon forms
Lets just say this was a one way ticket to the hospital and a three hour lecture from the doctor
MC you’re killing him, you’re killing lucifer
I am so sorry this took so long darling

SUGOAKU
A/N: I have been having major issues with my reblogs of my work not appearing in tags (i had 74 notes on the og). So I am seeing if a compete, fresh post of it, will work … fingers crossed.
Likes are nice but reblogs is what keeps artist alive …
Parings: Souya x Reader
Words (currently): 2786
Other notes: The reader’s gender, ethnicity etc isn’t stated, its 100% you, no matter who you are! HOWEVER, this work depicts adult, 28 year old Souya and Nahoya, where they’re running their ramen shop, therefore, I will be making the reader and adult too, and around their age.
Tumblr media
CHAPTER 1 - KIMCHI
[Reader] recently returned to Japan, after having been living abroad for a number of years. [Reader] found themselves living back in their old neighborhood of Meguro. It felt good being back in familiar surroundings, like many areas of Tokyo, things were constantly changing. There was a mixture of new establishments, along with old favourites. One of the new establishments was recommended to her by a neighbor, a ramen shop called, Sugoaku.
It had not long ago and was finding success fairly quickly, which in [reader]’s humble opinion was a good thing. Starting a business in the food industry was difficult in any location. But in Meguro, with competing with long-standing businesses that have tested time, and popular chain restaurants. There was still a risk of the business failing. However, those behind Sugoaku appeared to know what they were doing, confident in their skills and business know-how.
Business appeared to be doing well for Sugoaku, there were always at least a small handful of patrons in the restaurant at any given time, and (in [reader]’s opinion) their product was worth visiting multiple times a week. The menu never changed too much, typical of ramen establishments, which suited [reader]’s taste anyway. Instead, they always ordered the same type of ramen: a Tonkotsu ramen with normal noodle hardness. Depending on the day, often by recommendation, additions would be added: extra nori, a soft-boiled egg, extra Negi, and even extra cha-shu. The combinations were almost limitless.
With a rapidly growing business, it was only natural that the establishment would be at full capacity, with people lining up outside for a seat, during lunch and dinner rush hours. It wasn’t [reader]’s ideal situation. They had made that mistake once before and were sorely disappointed. Therefore, they attempted to visit Sugoaku after the rush, when the business was quieting down and the atmosphere was more at ease. Such was the case as one particular evening when [reader] went to Sugoaku for possibly the fourth time that week. It was a Sunday evening, and they had (thankfully) just missed the dinner time rush.
IRASSHAIMASE~
The chorus of welcomes greeted [reader] as they entered the restaurant and gestured to the server for a seat for one person. With the rush now over, it meant that the counter was close to being fully vacant, except for the odd random man or two minding their own business as they ate. Reaching their seat, [reader] scanned the kitchen briefly, inspecting who was currently present in front of them.
“Ahhhh~!” A light-hearted voice reached their ears, “you can’t seem to get enough of us!” [Reader]’s eyes stopped in the form of a pink-haired young man behind the counter, his smile growing a little wider as he watched them. The very same smile that they thought was incredibly infectious, as a smile of their own stretched across their lips. “Indeed,” they replied, their eyes flicking around the kitchen for the pink-haired man’s accomplice. “I’m just doing my bit to support a growing business, that is all.”
The pink-haired man was about to retort before a blue-haired man intervened, “it’s very considerate of you, thank you.” He had been on the restaurant floor, assisting their server to tidy up and had come up beside [reader]. Who had not heard his approach, and was slightly startled at his sudden appearance, which was not left undetected by him. “I’m sorry,” he murmured under his breath, [reader] strained to hear it but knew it was directed at them. They threw a smile in his direction, wordlessly telling him it was fine, “you’re welcome.”
The pink and blue-haired men were the owners of Sugoaku, twin brothers of stark contrasts. The pink-haired twin was Nahoya, playful, carefree, and had an ever-present smile gracing his lips. It always seemed that nothing ever bothered him, and it was often hard to take him seriously. He also often spoke his mind a little too much and says “I’ll fucking kill you” in such a nonchalant manner, that it never sat well with the self-entitled (alcohol-driven) late-night customers. He was rather cocky with [reader]’s patronage to their business. [Reader] wasn’t so sure what to make of it at first, but soon learned that he was just teasing and was appreciative of [reader]’s loyalty.
His blue-haired twin, Souya, was completely different compared to his brother. He always looked intensely irritated, looking like he was ready to jump over the counter to beat the next customer, who Nahoya just told to die. However, despite his face and gruff voice, he was the kinder of the two. He was always polite, spoke carefully, and was the one who calmed things down whenever things got heated between his brother and a customer. He was the one [reader] felt more at ease with, it was always easy to fall into a comfortable conversation with him. Like his brother he was appreciative of [reader]’s loyalty, he was the one who personally made sure your order was taken correctly; heaven forbid a part-timer messes up your order.
Souya hummed lightly in response, passing a few empty dishes to his brother, and with his hands now free, reached for a notepad and pen in his back pocket. “What will it be today?” He asked, amusement clear in his voice. A small smile crept along with your features upon catching the tone in his voice, “hmmm…” [reader]’s eyes flickered across their menu as they tried to make a final decision. After a brief moment, they looked up at the blue-haired man and set the menu down, “I’ll have the chef’s choice.”
Souya looked lost for a brief moment but wrote down their request nevertheless. As he did so, Nahoya let out a chuckle, “and which chef’s choice would that be~?” he called out, mischief fully lacing his voice. [Reader] looked over at the elder twin, “not yours,” they responded without missing a beat. There was no way in hell that they were going to let Nahoya choose whatever he wanted in your ramen; chances are he’ll make it spicier than his signature dish.
“Lame~” Nahoya simply shrugged his shoulders and continued what he was doing. Next to [reader], Souya let out a soft hum, “so, my choice then …” he was thinking of what to put together for them. “Is that all? Or would you like your usual sides?” [Reader] nodded in response, deciding that some gyoza and small fried rice on the side would be a good idea. “Noted.” Jotting down the final request to your order, Souya nodded his head and moved to join his brother behind the counter, in the kitchen.
As [reader] waited for their order, they mindlessly scrolled through their phone before setting it down and looked around the shop, before their gaze finally came to rest upon the twin brothers working in front of them. It was always a curiosity watching them work, [reader] was sure that it was all down to the fact they were twins. They worked in unison, both mindful of each other’s space, and did not always need words to communicate with each other. They were certain that they would never get bored watching the two men work together.
“What’s with that face~?” Nahoya’s voice sang out, startling [reader] into attention. “Uh…what?” [Reader] was so engrossed in watching the two men work, that they had become unaware of themselves and their surroundings. A blush dusted their cheeks as they looked between the two, Nahoya was chuckling to himself, and Souya, although poker-faced, held an amused look in his eyes. “Ah, nothing,” [reader] busied themselves at their seat, by taking a sip of their glass of water, which just earned them more chuckles from Nahoya, “… It’s just been a long day.”
“Bro, stop it,” Souya muttered, taking note of [reader]’s embarrassment as he finished off placing the last few garnishes on top of the fried rice he had just finished cooking. He knew that his brother’s laughing was not helping the situation, and he wanted [reader] to enjoy their visits to their shop, not dread it because of his brother’s constant teasing. A playful hum came from the elder twin, indicating nothing but trouble and Souya let out a deep sigh as he placed the bowl of fried rice in front of [reader], “your Gyoza and Ramen are coming…”
“[Reader] was just admiring my good looks as always, Angry~!” If it was entirely possible, Nahoya’s Cheshire Cat-like grin just grew wider, and in turn, if it was entirely possible, [reader]’s blush deepened. “That’s why they keep coming back.” He wasn’t wrong, both brothers were good-looking but to be called out like that was typical of Nahoya trying to get a rise out of them. “Nahoya…” [Reader] groaned in further embarrassment, pressing their face into their palm, missing the threatening look Souya cast over his brother. Letting out a sigh, they turned their focus to the fried rice that Souya made, beginning to eat it while it was still hot.
Meanwhile, Souya closed in on his older brother, nudging his shoulder as he did. “Tch, bro, hurry up with [reader]’s gyoza and noodles. Remember, normal firmness.” He pressed, hoping it would get his brother to work and off [reader]’s back. He had cooked off [reader]’s fried rice, which should’ve allowed Nahoya enough time to prepare the noodles and pan fry the gyoza, so he could start assembling [reader]’s order of “chef’s choice.” But his brother’s taunting of [reader] held up the progress line a bit, which annoyed Souya; it ruined the flow and synchronisation of how the brothers worked.
“Hurry up,” Souya muttered again, leaving his brother’s side and taking a visual sweep of the restaurant, nodding to a leaving patron who was at the cashier being seen by their part-timer. The business was slowing down for the evening, nothing too unusual, the slower pace allowed the brothers to relax and enjoy their work a little more. However, it did bother Souya when his brother slacked off a little too much or became a little too playful with their patrons. He picked up the water pitcher, glancing over at [reader] ’s snow empty cup, and refilled it. “Just ignore my brother,” he grumbled to them, hoping that they weren’t too embarrassed by Nahoya’s teasing. “Don’t be afraid to show him some attitude either. Otherwise, he’ll just walk all over you.” [Reader] glanced up to the blue-haired man, giving him a small smile of thanks for the refill, and let out a small laugh. “It’s quite alright,” they replied, picking up their glass of water and taking a sip. “I’m not that bothered by his antics.” Souya hummed in reply, his eyes flickering over his shoulder to his elder, “but still, don’t hold back if it gets too much.”
[Reader] gave Souya a reassuring smile, they enjoyed their time at Sugoaku especially when they were able to talk with the twins, especially Souya. There had been several times, they had considered giving them their LINE username, in an attempt to see them outside of the business setting; however, [reader] was unsure if it was unprofessional to do so. So for now, [reader] had to settle with their visits to the restaurant. “So, Sou-,” [reader] was about to attempt to strike up a conversation with Souya before the part-timer interrupted. “Boss, new order,” they announced, passing Souya the newly written receipt. “Thanks,” Souya waved off the part-timer, as his eyes flickered over to [reader], who nodded in silent understanding. A constant and expected occurrence, the interruption from new orders. It just encouraged [reader] to take their time eating at the restaurant, the longer they stayed there, the more time they stayed with the twins.
“New order,” Souya announced to his brother and the two seamlessly got to work. Nahoya had finished the [readers] noodles and was plating up the fresh gyoza, while Souya began cooking the noodles and setting up the tray of various plates and bowls for the new order. “M’dear~” Nahoya grinned at [reader], placing the gyoza in front of them, alongside a small plate of kimchi. [Reader] looked at the kimchi for a moment in confusion, they were sure that they didn’t normally order the side dish. So why was Nahoya placing it in front of them? “My treat,” he told them, “since Souya is going to make your bowl, this is my little contribution.” [Reader] let out a small laugh, those two brothers were truly a package, you can’t have one without the other. Even though they weren’t overly keen on the spicy fermented cabbage, as it was a little too spicy for their tastes. [Reader] began to pick at it, gingerly putting small amounts into their mouth.
“You don’t need to eat it,” Souya had spotted them pick at the side dish, as he was putting together a bowl of ramen, which [reader] assumed to be their order. The blue-haired man knew that they were being polite, and wished that his brother picked a different side dish to give them; a few pieces of karaage would’ve been sufficient. [Reader] looked over at Souya and gave him a sheepish smile, “Big bro likes to make his kimchi and makes it too spicy, despite how many times I tell him.” He continued, as he worked on the bowl adding on the finishing touches. “Maybe, if he notices you not eating it, he’ll get the damn hint.”
On the other side of the kitchen, Nahoya heard everything. “Oh ho~ What’s this lil bro? Recruiting [reader] to go against my kimchi~?” He sang out, his usual light and playful voice now having a threatening edge to it. “Just because you can’t handle a little spice, doesn’t mean they can’t either. Right, [reader]~?” [reader]’s eyes flicked between the two brothers, with the elder now getting a rise out of the younger’s comments. Their eyes settled on Souya, who was now placing the bowl of fresh ramen in front of them. His eyes were apologetic and clearly over it at the same time, the subject of Nahoya’s spicy kimchi must be one that had never been resolved. “Well …” [reader] began, their eyes flickering between the brothers and back down at the kimchi. “It is good kimchi …” in unison Souya looked deflated and Nahoya straightened in triumph, “but it is a little too spicy.” The moods instantly switched when [reader] finished off their verdict. Nahoya losing his trademark grin, with Souya looking over his shoulder with a clear ‘told you so’ look on his face.
“Well that sucks!” Nahoya bounced back, his grin plastered back on his face. “That just means one thing~ [Reader] you can be my official kimchi taster,” he declared, placing the next order on the counter for the part-timer to deliver to a customer. “Oi, table 15 is ready!” It was in that instant the near confrontation over the kimchi was forgotten, Nahoya had quickly moved on and began rinsing dishes to put into the dishwasher at the back of the kitchen. “That went better than I thought it would,” Souya commented, watching his brother’s back for a brief moment before drawing his attention back to [reader]. “I have given you a modified version of my specialty.”
[Reader] looked at the bowl of ramen in front of them. It was indeed Souya’s signature dish, which was called “Angry” and was a black Tonkotsu ramen. The broth gets its colour from a mixture of black sesame seed and black garlic oil, and despite appearances, the balance between the flavours was to perfection. Neither flavour overpowered the other or the other components of the dish. It was a quick favourite of [reader]’s, as it combined two of their favourite ingredients on the planet; not that they would admit that to Souya. His signature dish was, of course, a stark contrast to his brother’s which was a white Tonkotsu ramen, which was deceivingly spicy. Having known the twins for a while now, it was always amusing to [reader] how well their representative signature dishes reflected the personalities of each twin.
“So,” Souya began listing out the toppings he added to [reader]’s bowl. “We have the usuals there: menma, negi, cha-shu, and nori. I know you like corn and egg in your ramen, so I added those to your bowl.” The fact that he remembered [reader]’s favourite toppings, made them a little warm and fuzzy on the inside. Souya must make hundreds, if not thousands of bowls a day or week even, and he still made the effort to remember their usual order and favourite toppings. “Thank you, it looks great,” they replied softly, smiling at him.
“Itadakimasu~”

haikyuu boyfriends~
Tumblr media
omg i love this man. furudate sensei has wormed him into my heart with how infectiously hyper and excitable he is and that GAP omg. i want a bokuto. i really really want a bokuto. here is bf!bokuto as promised ♡
bf!bokuto
* is baby.
* skinship 120%.
* he likes to play with your hair, snuggle all the time, will become emo if u don't give him all your love and attention 120% of the time
* he loves cuddles. bear hugs. whatever physical touch there is, from casual to intimate he is down for it.
* when he is calm or sleeping, it's quite nice to watch him. it's such a stark difference from his normal that it's refreshing in its own way.
* he is NOT CALM like 90% of the time tho
* think overly excited puppy. if he happens to spot you along the road he will shout your name and wave frantically and come bounding to your side
* not a care in the world, this man. was he out with friends? bye friends! was he out with the team? bye team!
* he will zoom to u and be all heart eyes (♡-♡) did u come here just for me??? and you'll have to tell him gently that you were just passing by and return him to the tasks at hand, and the people with him.
* more often than not you'll be dragged along, so... welcome to the wild wild ride called dating bokuto-san. akaashi warned you, but you didn't listen.
* bokuto gets flustered when you're sick. he will fuss all over you. it will be very annoying, mostly because it's too high energy and you want to rest.
* eventually you'll send him out to get you something to warm to eat. you expect him to head out and buy soup or something but bokuto is the type to decide well! now i can COOK
* can he??????
* who knows but it's edible and doesn't taste bland or bad... i guess it's acceptable please eat it. he will be very happy. later on you learn that akaashi walked him through the steps of making porridge while you were asleep. you send akaashi rice balls from onigiri miya as thanks.
* fav place to kiss you? generally all over your face. he wants to kiss you all the time.
* fav place to be kissed? he doesn't really have a place he likes, but he likes it when you tiptoe to give him a peck on the cheek or lips. he just likes that you're so small and tiptoeing and just so cute and he will grab you and lift you up so that he can kiss you properly yanno with tongue and all that.
* he doesn't remember important dates. akaashi is his calendar. anniversary? he doesn't know. it'll take him a long time for it to stick in his head. his reasoning for not remembering is because "once we get married we'll have to remember another date so why do double work" smh this man will be the death of you
* he will want you to come to ALL his matches. all the time. expects you to cheer. the first time you watched him it gave you chills how good he was. he looked really cool and when you praised him and all he was so blushy and happy and GWAH. precious bby
* he will shout your name when he scores. prepare for embarrassment. no matter how thick skinned you are, bokuto can and will one up you.
* win or lose, please praise him after the match. it will lift him out of the emo mode, or make him even happier - and a happy bokuto is just so so cute. he is a star~ hinata may be the sun, but bokuto is your own sun in a solar system with just the two of you. so cheesy omg i cant believe i wrote that but that's what bokuto does to people
* basically he needs all the affirmation and attention so pls give it to him.
* he wants you with him 24/7.
* "let's just get married now so you'll never have to leave my side"
* bokuto likes amusement park dates. he finds them exciting. if you don't like it, he will tease you, but he will also try his best to make you like it.
* sometimes he does go overboard, and it will make you angry. he wouldn't know what to do. sometimes he will get angry back. sometimes he will just be stunned and stare at you. sometimes he will be flustered and start babbling. either way he's just not that good with it.
* he will ask kuroo for advice. kuroo is a True Blue Bro™️ and will give him good advice.
* bokuto will turn up at your place with apology flowers and a movie so you two can make up nicely. he also ordered your fav food in advance. akaashi was the one who did most of the ordering and suggested the flowers and stuff. is akaashi his secretary? yes he is. save akaashi
* anyway movie night is the only thing that bokuto came up with on his own
* he really likes movie nights cos it's an excuse to snuggle and cuddle and get all your attention what about the movie bokuto san? akaashi sighs. akaashi is long suffering.
* but bokuto being such a light of your life you will forgive him and you two will make out make up rlly quickly.
* well the movie is totally forgotten now. it's dark, cosy, and you're sucking face under the sheets... what's next? bokuto's favourite part of movie night ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
* well you're probably not averse to it ;p have fun!!
* bokuto: a wild wild ride but the best relationship you've ever been in. keep him.
*******
masterlist
i am taking requests for characters! and scenarios, etc basically whatever ♪( ´▽`)

Maou-jou 1 | Munou na Nana 1 | Grace of the Gods 1 | IWGP 1 | Akudama 1 | Crusade 1 | JJK 1 | HypMic 2 (also brief thoughts on the dog and cat TV short because I had them)
Maou-jou 1
I sampled this manga with what’s called a “Viz sampler”. I only ever seem to find those at libraries, so I’d assume only they and bookstores can get those.
…Twilight looks like Maou Sadao (Hataraku Maou-sama!).
“Dawner”??? I can read katakana, ya idjits. His name is Akatsuki. Update: The translator must’ve gone, “Dawn is a girl’s name. Let’s tack on an -er so it looks like a guy’s name.”
Aw, Hiro Shimono is Akatsuki. If it were Yoshitsugu Matsuoka, we could’ve gotten a Kirito joke out of it.
Oh! 快眠 (Kaimin) = good rest, literally “happy sleep”. Hence this is the nation of Goodreste. I see.
The lightning effect is soooooooooo cool! *eyes glitter at the particle effects*
I’m gonna die from cuteness from all the teddies and seals!
The little fanfare is so cute and the yokudekimashita reminds me of my days playing the arcade game Bomberman (which had a flower sticker much like this one). I wanna see this get a dub and succeed on all its merits! It’s basically my baby already…bar the fact it took a bit to work up to the first good bit of comedy.
The teddy demons are called Debiakuma, a pun on kuma (bear), devil and akuma (devil). Lessee…After “lesser demon”, there’s more text…“Fluffy bears that can be also used as pets. They give in easily to temptation. A lot of them live in the demon castle, so the princess likes to gather their fur, dye it and spin nice cotton out of it. Warning: A lot of them will either run away or call you their friend./Occasionally act as friends for the princess.”
LOL, I recognised that voice of the Scissors guy straight away…although I didn’t know who it belonged to. That’s Suwabe. (It doesn’t sound like Suwabe, I would’ve thought it to be Takuma Terashima or something.)
Aw, the Japanese version is more boring this time. It’s just Scissor Magician (in the singular for both).
*hears Scissors Demon going -ageruwa”, which is a feminine sentence ending…that’s Suwabe trying to (voice) act effeminate???!!!
These trumpet sounds never get old.
LOL, Siberian huskies dressed as Russians…
Okay, my turn again: Hari means needle, toge means thorn. Next to “His stomach is soft”, part of the subs are cut off due to Funimation’s hardsubs, but I can read “he is proud of his defence” on the 2nd line, “is the type to not refuse when relied on” on the 2nd-last line and “his favourite food is strange bird chawanmushi” on the last line.
I love how parts of the castle are upside down for no reason at all except to look cool…architects must hate that, though.
I hadn’t heard of “seesaw battles” until now. but the metaphor does make sense...kind of.
What about changing the mattress? Update: She does do that…kind of.
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Kirito was under my nose all along! Damn Demon Kinggggggggggggggggggg!
Kamina glasses on one of the background trees! Cute tapir! Ahhhhhhhh, it’s so cuteeeeeeee!
Anyways, that’s a fun show. Not as fun as HypMic, but still fun after it gains momentum.
Munou na Nana 1
I remember seeing spoilers for a twist at the end…let’s hope I don’t anticipate it. That would kill the entire anime for me.
The message actually says something about how the island is a nest for enemies of humanity.
There’s the ice narcissist I saw in the promo stuff, right on cue. I’ve never heard of his voice actor Hiromichi Tezuka before, although he does sound like Hiroshi Kamiya or someone much better.
Why do I get the feeling once the title character arrives, even Nanao will get powers…? Or maybe Nana is the catalyst for Nanao’s powers awakening or something? (Just realised having a Nana and a Nanao together in the same anime is confusing…)
Subbers spelt “noblesse oblige” wrong, unless it was deliberately done as such.
I predicted the “duke it out” line.
There’s a menu on the wall of the restaurant.
Maybe Nanao’s “talent” is his leadership stat or something?
Or maybe even Nanao is an enemy of humanity and doesn’t know it? (Sorry, speculation going into overdrive…that usually happens with superpower works like this for me, because I like to analyse them.)
Maybe Nanao can see the future, like the protag from Koi to Producer?
Technically, shouldn’t ice be weak against fire…? Or am I too used to the Pokemon system?
Called it! Nanao has a hidden power! (That reminds me: I still don’t know what Lucien’s (from Koi to Producer’s) power really is.)
Vigilantes is really good at exploring how people can expand on their own powers.
…wow, I heard rumours that the main character was going to die, but I’d pegged Nana to die, not Nanao.
Onodera is clearly important…maybe he was the one with the wind powers? Or was Nana lying about that?
…dude, the red eyes are kinda obvious that Nana is evil in some way, or at least really devious.
Grace of the Gods 1
All I really know of this is that it’s got slimes and it’s an isekai/SoL hybrid…That’s it.
…I am not, I repeat NOT, on board for a harem centred around an 11 year old!
Ryoma speaks with an unnatural amount of starts and stops, hence the caveman speak.
What’s Jil’s role in the party…?
Why would you even need to know 4 high-level skills? Isn’t it better to know all of them?
LOL, I knew the isekaid guy was meant to have a hard life so he could start over with slimes, but…stick Doppo in this and it’s basically the same thing. At least Doppo tries to resist his bosses behind their backs, this guy just did the whole gaman thing and look where that got him!
If he worked for a black company with no overtime and so forth, how did he know about a recent anime trend, eh??? Sounds suspect. Update: Unless he was thinking about 90s isekai, which still involved less reincarnation than this.
I noticed the gods have senbei (the rice crackers with the seaweed). Western-looking gods probably shouldn’t have senbei, unless…they did that to make Ryoma feel more at home?
Seriously, how does a guy with no overtime still have time for online games? Even if he were getting just ads for them, he probably wouldn’t have paid enough attention to be able to figure out what the cliches are, right? Either that, or the Dragon Quest system is older than I think it is.
Slimes don’t have paws…or hands or other appendages…to give…
…I’m not sure what to think there. Am I meant to think the slimes are cute? Am I meant to think the catgirls/animal girls are cute? The answer to those questions is “no”, so…eh.
IWGP 1
Basically, I chose this for associations with HypMic.
…the best first impression involves a CGI car. Of course. <- (sarcastic)
Given HypMic, I almost expected a rap battle…nahhhh…Rap battles don’t look so cool outside HypMic, man.
The owl is a pun. Fukurou (owl) matches ‘bukuro (bag, which is the 2nd character in “Ikebukuro”). There’s also an owl statue used as a meeting spot, much like Hachiko in Shibuya…(I learnt a bunch of things about the division territory through HypMic. Let me show off…)
I think the character designer for this anime also did Joker Game…that’s throwing me off a little. Also, they had a prime opportunity to use a Buster Bros song, so I’m still a bit miffed about that – this OP’s kinda standard. Update: The character designer is Junichiro Taniguchi – my insinct was wrong on him. He did Touken Ranbu Hanamaru’s character designs.
“Smoking kills” – Yuuuuuuuup. That’s true.
Why do I get the feeling all the male otaku will wanna bang Makoto’s mother (to put it lightly)…?
Curiously, the one who hates drugs in HypMic is Jyuto, who’s not from Ikebukuro Division at all. Hmm…
Yokoyama’s voice sounds familiar…but I’m not sure why. Update: If I had to guess, I’d say he’s Saito Soma or someone who sounds similar, so maybe Takuma Terashima, Daisuke Ono or something like that. Update 2: Takahiro Sakurai. See? I knew I knew that voice.
“Big Rei” (“Rei-nii”). That’s different from Ichi-nii (what Saburo calls Ichiro) and could also be goroawase for 02.
Uni of Tokyo is the most prestigious uni in Japan. It has quite the reputation.
…is it just me, or does Makoto have a piercing in his left ear? IWGP also happens to happily work with my existing character, although said character has a piercing in his right ear.
Zero One kinda looks like Uta (Tokyo Ghoul), LOL.
…and of course the girl has to rely on the dude. *sigh* Welp, we can throw drugs off the list for “things that count as TV-MA to Funimation” – IWGP is rated M (not 15+ explicitly, but that’s what it stands for normally) in my region.
This ED song…that’s the sort of song I was expecting from HypMic, Akudama or this.
Seems both Makoto and Takashi have earrings…maybe in both ears? Takashi’s are yellow, I could confirm that much.
…this is decent, but putting it up against its competitors is a bit harsh.
Crusade 1 (cont. from sneak peek - it’s in the title here because this is where it’s completed)
Turns out that preview was most of the episode…like “14 of 24 minutes” long.
Wait, how did Alice fall forward and end up in the princess carry pose? I remember having trouble with that when a character in a story of mine had the same problem.
…Iska-nii…(?)
That opera house looks pretty darn modern to me…
…eh…that was middling. Nothing any ol’ adaption of Romeo and Juliet couldn’t do, bar the CGI for the magic fight in the middle. (There was a fluffy griffin thing in the middle there, though.)
Akudama 1
Ume + Kimura and a cool urban aesthetic. Let’s go!
This is kinda Tron-like, eh?
Ooh, now it’s more like Cop Craft.
Kimura seems to use his gruffer voice more than his Ichiro voice, but Ume is actually worse on that fron with his ordinary voice…Welp, at least his ordinary voice sounds like it fits right in with the Courier. I almost expect an Ocean’s Eleven thing (or Now You See Me, since I’ve actually watched that) from this. Update: Turns out Kimura is the pompadour guy, not the fighter.
You can tell Ordinary Person is an okay person because she keeps saving cats. A bit cliché, but it’ll do.
Ohhhhhh…I can see where this plotline is going. Ordinary Person pretends to be Swindler to get herself out of this mess, but then she keeps getting involved with the Akudama. It’s a typical plot for a typical gal, common to insert a viewpoint character in series that require one, or a magical girl ally.
Wow, those missiles look like a**.
LOL, Hoodlum’s sentence is kinda measly in comparison to most of them. Plus, when he yelled, that sounded more accurate to Ichiro than Fighter was, so…yeah, sorry I messed up.
…Ordinary Person has some real bullseye…uh, eyes.
This could be a top contender…aside from the CGI, which does look a bit funky. I’m getting a death game vibe here, but I don’t know if that’s really the case. Also, it’s a lot of fun, but the possible intolerable thing here is Ordinary Person’s screaming – the pretense she has to keep up seems like it’ll fit right in though.
JJK 1
I read the manga once, dropped it and then read it again and didn’t realise why I dropped it.
Fushiguro has long eyelashes, tbh. Itadori comments on that at one point, I think.
Oh, it was a fish (carp) in the manga. I couldn’t figure out what the Japanese equivalent was just from the Kokkuri board.
This track club teacher is a bit of a freak, honestly. Meddling in kids’ affairs is probably illegal to some extent.
Itadori is known as “tiger” because the kanji for “tiger” is in the surname. Update: Also, the Czech dude Mirko was called “the Croatian tiger”, if a tweet I read is any indication.
I like how there’s more comedy in this one. They show the world records, so you have standards to compare Itadori against.
This is an almost beat-for-beat adaption, bar the slight comedy of the records being added (and not explaning who Mirko is). The contrast makes this better.
“People really can die.” – That’s summoning some real energy of “People die when they are killed.”
(Brief thoughts on the dog and cat short: I enjoyed that more than I thought I would. The picture of a realistic cat – someone’s actual photo of their cat?- that serves as a punchline never gets old and in fact, sometimes contributes to the humour.)
HypMic 2
LOL, TV-MA warning strikes again.
“Kore wa prologue/Hajimete no ippo/Fumidasanai yatsu ni wa/???? shinpo.” – The translation is really good for the bits I can read…the problem is I can’t read the bottom left corner. Update: The part in the bottom left is nai...That’s it.
…uh, even people from around the world can read 24 hour time??? You don’t need subs to read Arabic numerals???
…couldn’t you have just told Ichiro verbally, Saburo…? Update: Come to think of it, kids these days are more on their phones than ever, so it makes sense but also kind of doesn’t.
You don’t really need subs for laughter either…
I’d never heard of “pulling rank” before…hmm: “to use one's high position in a society, organization, group, etc., to order someone to do something or to get special treatment or privileges.”
…and here comes the F word here to mess with us again. Japanese nastiness is conveyed using words that might be considered “soft” in English, hence the sudden jump to use the F word a bunch, but the subbers could use some variety in their swearing. I mean, “dips**t” worked where it did because subbers made Samatoki go overboard with the F word, but…you could stand to use that more, maybe(?)
I like how even the Tenderloins guy rhymes where he’s meant to. It’s the prelude to a battle, after all. (He kinda looks like Kotaro from Zombieland Saga.)
…I freaked out for a second. I swore I saw a similar-looking restaurant (udon shop, located on the left of one of the shots) while in Japan. Also, we finally get to see Ichiro’s reputation at work.
…I still have no idea what a “steelo” is after all this time, but I didn’t realise I was staring at a part of Ore ga Ichiro until I saw it in context. Also, it was kinda derpy – but still really in character – for Ichiro to run to his destination with his arms up like the Glico man in Osaka (except he had his head down).
I get a weird feeling the subbers may have used the wiki translation because I’m using it as a reference and the language seems oddly similar for the most part…
The kick Ichiro does seems like it references the OP.
Notice the location is Nishiguchi Kouen…the West Gate Park. *raises eyebrows at the IWGP anime*
…oh! It occurred to me that the sign the BB do with their hands is…well, a lowercase B. (LOL, if you read my previous line funny, it rhymes.)
Gentaro doing the peace sign to his chest…that was random the first time, because it doesn’t seem in character, but then it does for Dice and possibly Ramuda, so Gentaro probably just chose to go along with it (“to add to his image as a rapper,” maybe…?).
Oh, Saburo has airpods in…those aren’t good for blocking sound, are they…?
Notice the owl on the…uh, café(?)…Ichiro goes to.
That one “holy shit!” made me laugh like a madman. Where it came from, I don’t know, but it was so random I had to laugh at it.
This makes me wonder…if you use a mic that’s different to your personal mic, does it produce the same speakers? No one’s ever addressed that before (much like how no one questions if magical girls always need the same transformation device – I wanted to make a plot on that someday, but I can’t seem to find a comprehensible way to pull it off…LOL, that reminds me, I even had a HypMic version of that featuring Samatoki at one point, but it probably makes even less sense than the standard one because it activates via physical contact. It’s notable – in my head – for Nemu’s version of the “power” being “Samatoki can’t swear, no matter how hard he tries”).
I’m pretty sure that round thing wasn’t part of Ichiro’s rings, ever. (…Unless that was the head of his spoon or something.)
…Microwave? (referring to the shot inside the hospital, which seems to be based off ARB)
The series normally transitions from BB -> MTC -> FP -> MTR, so it was interesting to see that shuffled up. Update: That’s if it has to have an order, but notably ARB breaks this standard a lot by assigning colours to each solo and then arranging interactions based on not repeating those colours (aside from the Sky High Tower event). With 4 things there are 4! = 24 possible combinations and 6! = 720 possible combinations if you count DH and BAT, so as we move forward with those 2 divisions...prepare for more shuffling.
…is Jiro gonna steal a ball? I thought it was just bikes anime characters stole. (LOL)
The mic changes the background, too, huh? Never expected that from more than the speakers.
…and of course, s*** explodes and the day is saved once again....by the Buster Bros!!! (LOL, but also *sigh*)
Hmm, so this anime’s real plotline probably involves this trio: Rex, Tom and Iris. They’re probably foreign in some way, judging by Tom and Rex. Maybe they’re aligned with a foreign government or something? Update: If you look at the credits, their full names seem to be Tom Whisper Weathercock, Iris Innocent Traiter (sic) (LOL) and…Taroumaru Rex…? (romanisations confirmed for all katakana)
Sadamezuka was voiced by the ubiquitous Kenjiro Tsuda.
It seems Cola Bintarou (aka Subaru Kimura) was on the case again today. He wrote the new song for BB, called RUN THIS CITY, along with Gesshoku Kaigi.
Of course, I’m going to keep this anime on my list...I’m just a bit worried about myself going forward, because I realised my ego got a bit inflated trying to defend the series from haters. I’ve never had a series where I’ve been a fan from the beginning that wasn’t already a known quantity for a while (Muhyo and Roji’s, Furuba). With Boueibu, I was discovering things alongside other people (or even later in a lot of cases) since it was anime-original.

sun and moon | jjk
pairing: jungkook x female reader
genre: angst (what’s new!!)
word count: 2,501
a/n: this was loosely based on my personal experience, and yeah just wanted to share this piece that means a lot to me:-)
Tumblr media
“So what’s it for you, y/n? Seoul National or Yonsei University?”
Before your brain could formulate the perfect answer, a rather awkward chuckle broke the air, shifted the spotlight on the doe eyed boy sitting opposite you. With honey brown tousled hair, you swore you would salivate if you continued ogling it. But it seemed to you, that you were caught in action, as a pair of eyes peeked at you, occasionally meeting yours, as if playing a game of peek-a-boo.
He’s Jungkook, if you were wondering, Namjoon muttered under his breath, smug look in place, as he nudged your shoulder playfully, and all it took was a smack on his head, to shut that mouth of his, you could proudly proclaim. He’s a keeper, I promise you, his name, the only thing that escapes the mouth of all these hormonal driven teenage girls, Namjoon reports to you, hand briefly waving across the crowd as if this was a skit that casted you as the detective and Namjoon as the fellow sidekick, not that you would deny.
Back to those eyes that shy away from yours, every time you find them. There was something—akin to melancholy in them, you noticed. You wanted to ask if he was alright but the fact that you barely knew him, stopped you from doing so. You figured he wasn’t just another cute boy.
The next time you found yourself staring at those eyes was at your school’s ice hockey match. Of all things, you didn’t expect Jungkook to be an ice hockey player, from your university, come to think about it, no wonder they asked which university you were schooling at, because they were arrogant, self centred and everything he wasn’t, and somehow it was a pleasant surprise as you saw his brown mob of hair invade your vision as the players were introduced, his eyes finding yours, a playful mirth in them, before his hand managed a wave at you. The game was rather interesting, it being your first game that you have attended, and definitely not the last, you decided then. After the game ended, the boys quickly pushed you towards Jungkook,rather forcefully and it ended really awkwardly with him sporting a blush, and you all choked up with your not so subtle infatuation with the doe eyed boy. With his arms positioned in front of you, you thought he was going to go in for a hug, and your inner awkward gal was screaming frantically, until you realised he already walked past you, striding towards another. And to your disappointment, it was a rather beautiful girl, you couldn’t place a finger on her name yet, but now that you’ve taken a good look at her, it tallied with whoever he was crooning about for the past several weeks and it registered in your mind. If it ain’t any more possible, you felt your heart drop to your stomach, leaving its chambers open, empty and vulnerable for everyone to see.
Therefore you came up with a plan, to save your already doomed fate, from further falling for Jeon Jungkook, the one appearing in your dreams. You found the saying ‘absence makes the heart fonder’ pretty relatable and disheartening, as you now found yourself staring at his silhouette, when you used to be the one he was facing. You avoided him at all costs, employing Namjoon and sometimes even Taehyung to play your fake boyfriend, hoping it would get to him. But those tactics of yours were childish and useless as it only seemed to hurt you even more, to your dismay.
You were petty, you admitted it, but because you felt cheated, betrayed, lead on. Apparently those playful teasing, accidental glances meant so more to you than to him. Maybe because you wished for something to happen, that you amplified everything that happened. After a whole three months, you decided to give up, on this childish game, that comprised of you, the only player. You found time to hang around with more friends, relishing in the youth that is never everlasting, and cherishing the friendships you’ve forged over the past few years, burying your feelings for that Jeon kid.
The next time you heard of him was when the boys were discussing over their favourite otp that comprised of jungkook and his new girl, which have yet to broken up, which didn’t surprise you, because judging from his appearance, one would think he would be the type to dump girls as and when he pleases, hitting up night clubs on weekdays, but you knew him better than that. That the boy in front of you is nothing like that description, and that was what got you hooked, back in the day.
Now you knew better, than to love with your heart, that it is wiser to love with your mind, because at least you would hurt less, and so that’s what you thought, until you saw the username ‘goldenjeonxx’ pop up in your dms, and once again you reacted faster than your brain could process, as your fingers tapped on the notification, it’s words staring back at you.
goldenjeonxx: hey, you free to talk?
goldenjeonxx: okay that sounded so random but yeah
You seriously considered replying to him, because what if this was just a prank, or another one of those tactics, that he pulled several months back?
popsbopsgops: yo jeon! you alright there buddy?
goldenjeonxx: umm look, i will appreciate if you keep this between us and not tell the boys pls, it will hurt them to know that i’m keeping this from them, but there’s no other way.
The thought of telling them came to mind, if it seemed as serious as he made it out to be. But if he trusted you, then you saw no reason for you to break that.
popsbopsgops: hey hey don’t worry alright, it’s not my story to tell anyway :-)
goldenjeonxx: phew, i always knew i could count on you bro.
The younger you would have shed a tear at that sentence, but you outgrew it already, thankfully. Silently waiting as he continued to type, you brought out your night stash of popcorn, and began devouring it.
goldenjeonxx: typing...typing
goldenjeonxx: hey i’m really sorry that i’m disturbing you at such an ungodly hour, if you don’t want to talk, it’s alright.
popsbopsgops: look jeon, if i say i’m here to listen, i’ll be here. so don’t worry about me. go ahead & spill.
goldenjeonxx: your wish is my command madame y/n, then. it’s about my parents. every night i come home to them, screaming and fighting , today was the polar opposite until they spilled the beans and announced their divorce.
Unknowingly, you exited Instagram and dialed his number right ahead. The night was spent Jungkook vomiting our his sorrows as he sobbed, a side you rarely saw, as you remained silent over the line. It was something you picked over the years, that sometimes what people need is simply a listening ear, and that was what you gave him. This thing—whatever you called it, carried on for another month and it left you thinking on your bed, whether it was appropriate, for him to be spilling his ‘secrets’ to you, his friend. But for all you know, his girlfriend could have already known. But you hated to say it, but from the tone of it, it seemed as if he was suppressing it, and finally reached his limit.
You felt silly for thinking too deeply into the matter, but what exactly was going on in your life anymore? Jungkook is a friend to you, but lately, the lines seemed to have blurred again and it seems to parallel what happened few months ago and you knew that you weren’t ready for another one sided infatuation or whatever it was called, no more.
He sobbed again, and you felt your heartstrings tug, a feeling that has yet to recently show a reappearance.
“So y/n, do enlighten us, when are you ever going to get a boyfriend?” Hoseok peered over at you, eyes masked with curiosity, but the question itself got you choking, on the fried rice you were chewing, causing everyone’s attention to return to you. You decided to be bold and directed your gaze towards Jungkook,
I need someone that understands me, that will believe in me even when I don’t, to love me for who I am.
but he continued eating his meal, eyes focused ahead and for a millisecond, you felt let down again. Not that you had a right to, but seems as if life decided to make you its newest target. “It’s been tough to find the right one, Hoseok.But it’s not like you can relate, right?” The boys went into a frenzy, slapping Hoseok’s shoulder, laughing their heads off, and at that moment you noticed Jungkook staring in your direction, and for the slightest moment, you thought you saw the playful mirth, once again, before the indifference washed over, and he resumed eating, as if it didn’t happen in the first place.
Her name is Yeon Woo, you knew her from school too. The both of you clicked after attending several talks together, coincidentally, and a friendship blossomed from there. She was the peanut to your butter, someone that brought out the hilarious and wild side of you and people always said the both of you were like the dynamic duo. Therefore, it surprised you nonetheless, when Jungkook announced he was dating her, 2 months ago, because you felt left out. That she didn’t let you in on the news before broadcasting it to the rest of the school. However, it didn’t take a toll on your friendship but you respected that maybe she wasn’t comfortable in sharing about her relationships with you, perhaps.
You felt oddly guilty, for some reason. That you were discussing somewhat ‘private’ matters with Jungkook behind her back. But what made you remain steadfast was the fact that you helped him with the intention of helping a friend. If no one mentioned it, one could hardly even notice that these two were even a couple. They were not seen going out together, people even speculated that they already broke up, and the fact that he used to send her home, but no longer does so anymore, says something. Maybe it is your wishful thinking, after all, again.
Nowadays, it’s becoming a regular occurrence in which he confides in you and it reached a point that you broke down in frustration because he really seemed to be in pain, but there was nothing you could do anymore to help, as ultimately it is his own problem to solve. Previously before this whole confiding issue, the two of you could barely be considered as friends but rather as acquaintances who saw each other every week through their mutual friends. But now, it feels as if it had progressed to a friendship after all those nights of ranting and music recommendations. You enjoyed talking to him, you realised, but the reminder of Yeon Woo painfully put in your place, making you keep your distance. And that was what brought Jungkook outside of your theatre class, hands tucked into the pockets of his grey sweatpants, hood covering those brown locks, with the consistent tapping of his foot against the floor. Your musky fragrance underlined with a hint of sandalwood and vanilla caught his attention and in response, he held your gaze, before reaching forward to grab your wrist, making you follow his lead. His grip was somewhat gentle and fragile, as if he was afraid that he would break you. You shrugged away his grip upon reaching the alley next to the cafeteria. If your eyes didn’t fool you, you thought you saw Yoongi walking past, and you were inclined to dodge your head, in embarrassment, for some reason. But what Jungkook said next was the real deal breaker and made you cease in your movements.
“Hey, is everything alright y/n? I mean like you haven’t been online recently, so it made me think if there was something going on, whether you were doing fine,” sensing your stare, he fumbled with his words. “If you’re facing any difficulties or what, I’m here,alright,” he took your hand in his and you froze. You struggled to string your sentences because what were you supposed to say, that you were avoiding him because you felt ashamed of your growing feelings for him, or because his girlfriend was your best friend and it felt so wrong yet right doing this?
“You don’t have to worry, y/n, if that’s what is stopping you. I won’t tell anyone, not even Yeon Woo—“
“She is your sun, someone that energises you and makes you glow, from the inside, sending butterflies to your stomach. Everyone can see her, she doesn’t shy away from the crowd, instead basking in the attention that is shone on her. You need her because she will always be there for you.” It broke your heart to say that aloud but it was the harsh reality and someone just had to say it. But you didn’t know if you were reminding yourself or telling Jungkook.
“Everyone loves her, you do too. I can see it in your eyes, even when you think no one ever notices.” You continued, “You desperately hold onto something, even if hurts you, because even if it makes the other hate you, it’s better than being ignored.” Ignoring the stinging tears that were growing by the minute, you dared yourself to look at the boy in front of you. The one boy that is capable of turning your world upside down with a flick of his tongue. That doe eyed boy, who you allowed back into your heart.
He remains in his position, looking at you with an unreadable expression, as he spoke his mind.“Whereas, I dare say, You’re my moon. Someone that I confide in, at the darkest hours of the night, when everyone else is asleep and my mind is awake from all the thoughts that swim their way around me. Someone that treats me indifferently in the day but showers me with concern, at night , when you think no one else is watching. Although different in shape at times, your heart remains the same, genuine as always.”
You resist the urge to step forward and hug him, because you remember that the both of you were still in school compound and he was not yours to do as you pleased. So, you settled with a pat on his back, as the tears come crashing down, inevitably soaking his hoodie. He doesn’t say anything in response, but you felt the ghost of his palm lingering on your lower back.
.
.
“But you can’t have the both of us, not at the same time. The world doesn’t work that way.” You whispered under your breath, loud enough for his ears to pick up.

New year
And a new decade!
Wow, what an original title.
My Christmas vacation was amazingly cozy. I spent the 23rd-27th of December at home with mum and dad. On the 23rd me and mum went to the flea market to buy yarn and thin knitting needles for my bunny plushie project. We also found an adorable winter themed PowerPuff Girls duvet cover that I got to have in my bed for the holidays.♥
On Christmas Eve I got to watch morning cartoons on mum’s new sofa in my soft Oodie. We spent Christmas Eve traditionally having rice porrige for breakfast, going to take candles to the graves, going to the sauna and having a delicious dinner of smoked fish, salads, roast, mashed sweet potato, fried carrot and parsnip, and a dessert of home made gingerbread ice cream. Then we watched From all of us to all of you and handed out presents. My photo book was a big hit and made both mum and dad tear up. They both loved their moomin themed presents as well. I got Jamie Oliver’s VEG cook book, a radio for my summer house, a face wash from the Body Shop, and some gloves that got mixed up with dad’s at some point. Now mine are pink and mum has a purple pair. My dad also got me a 100 square meters of protected forest that will by law be kept in its natural state forever, which is an incredibly magical and special gift. ♥
On Christmas morning we woke up to the most beautiful snowy landscape and a calm little snowfall. Me and mum shovelled the driveway and went for a really long magical walk to the beach and around our area. The beach was full of little lanterns and candles burning in the snow. In the evening I started knitting my bunny plushie with the instructions found on the book I got at grandmum’s place. Mum helped me get started but I made her entirely by myself. By January 19th she already has a face too, with only a few details missing.
On Boxing Day me and dad drove to see the cousins and mum went to see granny and grandpa. It was really good seeing my cousins again for the first time since I think last Christmas (?), and dad’s cousin visited my aunt that day as well, so dad and his sister got to see their cousin as well. Me and my twin cousins finally made a Whatsapp group, which will make keeping in touch a lot easier.
On the 27th I came back to the apartment to spend some time working on my projects (and play some Sims..). My guy came back home on the 28th and we opened the rest of our presents. We got some cute kitty mugs and some (less cute) moomin pillowcases. I got new socks from my guy’s grandpa and my guy got me the brick oven bakery and the pizza delivery set of Sylvanian Families! ♥ My guy loved his Otamatone and we’ve had a lot of fun with it. ♫
We spent the day before New Years with my twin cousins who came over. We went to a trampoline park and Burger King, and played some Smash Bros Ultimate and Mario Kart. Then we spent about 4 hours until 2 am playing Overcooked. One of the twins works at a fast food restaurant so he was really damn good at coordinating our team. We decided that we would only accept 3 stars and had to spend a lot of time on some of the stages, but it was a blast. My guy is really bad at communication and team work though (heh, sorry) so it sucked for whoever was on his side. My cousins left on the morning of New Years Eve, and our friends came over around 6 pm. We made pizza, talked, went to see the mayor’s speech and watched the fireworks. For once the weather was completely clear and comfortably warm so the fireworks were a lot of fun. After midnight we spent the rest of the night until 6 am playing a quiz game, cards against humanity and Overcooked. I’m so glad I went back to work on the 7th and not on the 2nd.
My New Year’s resolutions this time are to continue working on my crafts and finish at least 2 of them, to only buy recycled items (apart from a couple things that I’ve planned on and needed to buy for a while), trying to spend a plastic free July (no single use plastics or plastic packaging), continuing my photo project with at least 3 photoshoots, working on my grimoire and finishing at least 12 pages, continuing to play the piano and get better at reading sheet music, spending the coziest and witchiest summer at my cottage/summer house, reading/listening to books and stretching/body care. A lot of these are things that are already habits and a part of my life so they aren’t that big of a deal even though the list is long. Mainly my resolutions are there just to push me to continue creating. I have set a date around midsummer/Litha to check my progress. So far piano has definitely already fallen behind so I need to try and pick that back up real soon. I have my new pile of sheet music books to start with.
So my winter has been filled with cottage visits nearly every weekend. At Christmas we went for a bonfire and carols. We have been feeding lots of little birds, walking in the nature and even went ice skating last weekend. This winter has been almost entirely snowless and very warm, and the birds are already singing and starting to nest even though it’s only January. There is no snow on the lake ice so last weekend my mum, dad and I had a perfect private skating rink with some magical sunshine and beautifully frosted trees. These are the moments that make winter worth it even though the lack of snow makes everything so dark, which makes me so incredibly sleepy. Luckily the days get about 7 minutes longer every day. It’s already almost light out when I leave work. Only 3-4 more months until we get to spend more time at the summer house, and soon I’ll be out there on that lake on my SUP board. That place truly heals me and helps me remember what's important in life. Nature is always beautiful no matter the weather, and everything over there has a purpose, unlike in the city.
Tumblr media
Almost all of my apple seeds sprouted, and every one of my first saplings has already died from what I suspect is the lack of light. Some of the second batch are still alive, and I’ve got a third batch to plant. Hopefully those will make it to be planted outside. I even picked up a board from our cottage shed to make a windowsill in the kitchen for the saplings.
My guy and I have been enjoying our second playthrough of the Witcher 3, this time on the Switch. I love laying on the sofa all warm and cozy in my Oodie and working on my crafts, or putting photos in an album while he plays. Our PC playthrough was tedious because I had to sit down and do nothing through hours of gwent or side quests. Now I get to lie down and work on my own projects during the side quests. The PS2 era graphics do bother me a bit, but the story is immersive enough and the cutscene quality is not reduced too bad.
The first 2 weeks of work have been pretty decent. I’ve even had a couple of good days. ☼ I’m about to start a rough spring of trainings for both staff and teachers, which will be mentally exhausting, but I will try to keep myself busy with hobbies, and enjoy the coming spring to the fullest. January has already flown by, which is both exciting and scary. As for working out, this spring I’ve got a lineup of body combat, the occasional 45 minute guided meditation class (which I love because last week we had a body scan meditation and that’s my favourite type), HIIT ‘45 whenever I can leave work early to go to class, and ballet.
Yesterday we celebrated grandad's 90th birthday. Lately I’ve been really sad thinking about my aging grandparents. I recently went through my old post cards because I’m planning on making some crafts with them, and while doing that I found all of granny and grandpa’s letters and post cards and got some very emotional flashbacks to my childhood and the stories grandmum used to tell me. After a few glasses of cognac grandpa gave me a really emotional and sweet speech about how proud he is of me and how he remembers the time the swing in their yard broke down from under me and the times he taught me how to ski. He has truly taught me to never give up and be resilient in everything I do. I love my grandparents so much and I want to try and spend as much time with them as possible. It is so unfair that we never get enough time to spend with all the loved ones... Regardless, happy 90th birthday to the best grandpa. ♥ ♥ I love you so much.
Speaking of family and celebrations, I was asked to be a bridesmaid to my friend whom I've known since kindergarten. It is an incredible honor and I really can’t put into words how special it is to have someone who’s known me since I was 4 years old - and now she’s getting married! I will do my best to make her day special, but it is a lot of stress and pressure on me - especially as I’ve never planned a wedding and I’ve only been to 2 in very recent years. Her other bridesmaid got engaged the same week as she did so they are both planning on getting married the same month. We’ll see how that goes, and if one of them has to postpone their wedding or not, but regardless the other bridesmaid won’t have as much time and focus for my friend as I will since she’ll be planning her own wedding at the same time.
I think we only have 61 or 62 days until Animal Crossing New Horizons, and still no AC direct. Instead we’ve had a Pokémon direct and a Smash Bros direct.. If preordering seems worth it and/or there is a Switch console bundle I’ll take the 20th of March off work to go get it in the morning. We were planning on taking a trip to Japan this spring but we’ve postponed it until the autumn since the Super Nintendo World will be opening in the summer, and my guy can earn some money at his summer job.
Me and my friend were going to have a photoshoot today but the weather isn’t great (it’s very windy) and she had a weird stomach bug last night so we postponed. Instead I’m trying to finish up some odd to-do list jobs so that I can start preparing for Imbolc. It’s coming up so fast, but that’s also very exciting. ☼

J
I rarely talk about men, or guys. And the only men whom had won my deepest respect and heart, are my brother and father. Hardly any other man comes close to them. 
My dad, illiterate in English, but he talks to me history every now and then.  I always thought I'm similar to my mum, only to realise i was wrong during the Europe trip. 
The first day in Berlin, we sat in the Starbucks at Berlin Airport.  I went to get coffee and tea for us, only to see my dad journaling away as he jots down his exhilarating emotions. I look at my dad, and realise, maybe we're really so similar. 
Taiwan 2013, it was the first time our family went to a country beyond China and SEA. God knows why, but I insisted on going to museum to see things that I know yet dont know. But my dad clearly knows way more history than me, so he patiently guided me and told me the story of Song Sisters. That explains my love for history. 
My brother, persistent and persevering, he deserves all the A+ deans list and prestigous internships. 
Then comes you. 
May 2017, we met, at AMK Hub, wanting to do competitor analysis for a restaurant that we worked for. You were different from all other guys that I've met. At the top of AMK Hub, you shield me away from the children riding animals cars, for fear of them bumping into me. At the food court, when I'm so used to ordering and buying food all by myself, you insisted that I sat while you make the order. You didnt bother finding out what to eat,but just bought 2 set meal at the chicken rice stall. 
"What did you want to drink? "
I said my favourite drink of all time, "Teh o bing"
But auntie somehows made teh bing instead. But i drank it anyways and you told me, that i'm different because i dont make a fuss out of big things, unlike any other girls you've met. 
I shook my shoulders because i didnt know what to react, because this is me and i never make a fuss out of small things. But i too, wanted to reply, "you're the most diff guy I've ever met."
We took the covered walkway to Cheng San, with my lap top in my tote bag, sling over my shoulders. You told me, "Dont use this kind of bag, its bad for your shoulders."I smiled and continued walking. 
"Eh do you want me to carry it for you? "
I said nope, because i never like people carrying things for me. 
I had a feeling that you would wish me luck for my first day of internship which was the very next day. And you actually did. You sent me a clover emoji and I asked you why. You said, "it represents good luck". And from then onwards, 4 leaf clover became my lucky charm. 
In that instant, I knew you're different and this friendship is going to be different. Internship and CCC got me so tired, sleeping at 12 am and later almost every day, but I'll always make it a point to text you on the pretext of Bliss. And you'll always rush me to sleep, just like how my mum did. 
I harboured hopes, hoping that things would turn out to be something beautiful. I know, i was threading on thin ice, but I continued to harbour hopes. I hate this uncertainty, and I hate having butterflies in my stomach.  
Then comes June. I wanted to put all these romance and butterflies away, but one night, I lied down on my bed, and suddenly gazillion thoughts went through my head. About how you felt, how you thought. I really wanted to sleep, because i knew, i cant text you like how a friend do. But when I shut my eyes,  a voice told me to love you, like how i'll love a brother in christ. 
So I typed the longest message to you ever. I put away my phone for i fear the reply. 
The phone lit up a few seconds after, and you said, "i've never told this to anybody. How did you even know?"
I dont know how to explain the existence of God to somebody whom is a non christian. But i ended off with saying, " I know we share different faith, but just know that, you have a god above, who truly loves you for who you are."
My heart broke when you replied, "No offense. But i believe that christianity is not for everybody."
I try to tell myself that its ok, its truly ok. We can just be friends. But how do you thread the thin line between friends and more than friends. To catch the fish market at Jurong at 12 am was an excuse, I simply wanted to find excuses to go out with you. You didnt know I sacrifice cell for you, but i happily did it, cause you were a gem to me. 
God somehow knows the way to my heart. While waiting for the bus at the ulu interchange, you made your way to an eatery, and shove the water bottle down my bag. "See, you dont have water with you again."
That moment, I told God, "what do you want me to do now?"
We were stopped at the fish market, because of cameras, but somehow, you smoked out some reasons and we got in. And you said the manliest things ever, " later if anything, just say I initiated this photoshoot."
I got captivated at the killing and cleaning of fishes, while you waited patiently and paved the way for me, for fear of me slipping and falling. Then I knew, you were the most caring man ever. 
I really wanted to clarify our relationship, but I lack the courage to do so. So that night, we went home separately. 
God is truly humourous. That August, i won the competition and got offered full time job at a fin tech company and i know it is truly by God's grace and His grace alone. So I knew, that I cannot be tgt with a guy who is non christian. And that time, you told me that you were seeing another girl. So I didnt reply to your text at CCC final when you wish me luck. 
But caring and meticulous as you are, you wished me all the best on 21 August, the night I was due for Netherlands. 
The butterflies came back again, but soon, our convo died just like how it was always shortlived. 
I never initiated any chat, and it's always you, who would asked me who am i doing in netherlands. To the extent that you airflown my favourite cereal to my apt. The postage cost $75, a considerable amount to a guy who is on bursary and part time jobs. 
I wanted to return the favour, but you insisted no. So i relented. But we stopped talking, as we always did. 
Then came November, you knew of the refugees flooding  into Netherlands due to a hurricane, and checked up on me. I asked God again, "why. Why."But in my heart, I'm secretly happy that you did. 
Just when I thought its over, you wished me happy new year, 7 hours before 12 am because I was in France and you were in Singapore.  We revived our chat history. 
"So 2 Feb you're coming back?"
I said yes. 
"Anybody going to pick you up?"
"i dont know yet. my dad's working, if not i can just cab back home."
"If not i go fetch you. Its a saturday anyways."
"No, dont come."I replied. I never like the idea of you going out of your way for me, because we werent anything. 
"But i live near the airport."
No you dont. You live in freaking serangoon and not pasir ris. 
But the conclusion was that you didnt have to come because my bro would be coming. 
I couldnt understand whatever that was going on, and I felt that you were stepping over the boundaries of a friend. So I asked Vanessa what should I do. After all, shes the only friend that have met you. 
She told me to clarify our relationship. So I did it, without any fear because I know, that we can still be friends no matter what. 
And true enough, you said, you only treated me as a very close friend because nobody can understand you like i did.  Surprisingly, I didnt seem too sad. And i slept peacefully that night, knowing that i've got a closure in my heart. 
But things, continued to be in a grey area. 
2 Feb 2018, I came back. And you texted "Are you back in Sg?"
Being the mischievous kid that i always am, i said, "Nope, stuck in Qatar due to weather circumstances."
I sensed in your tone that you're worried sick. So I played along and told you to not worry because Doha Airport provides proper accommodation. 
Then I knew the joke was kind of out of hand, so I relented and said I'm happily lying on my bed. 
But you seem to have forgotten the dim sum treat that you're supposed to treat me. And I didnt want to cause any unnecessary butterflies and fluttering of heart, so I stopped texting you. 
Yet, i dont know what has gotten into me, in May, i told you to meet up. Because I want to meet you as a friend, and I wanted to see if i have truly moved on. 
So on hari raya puasa, we met at old airport road. For all the cheap and good local delights. Then you handed me a really bitter herbal drink and you said, "Nah, you forgotten to bring water again right?"
My heart fluttered for you again. 
We ate so much, my stomach was bursting and I suggested walking to Stadium to chill.
As dramatic as it was, I played with the shadows and I tried imagining us holding hands. You kept making sure I drank up, so much so that i really wanted to puke. 
You already had a girlfriend, but you told me that the conversation you had with me that very night, was more than what you had with your gf for the past 2 weeks. I told you, that you should prolly talk to your gf to clarify things and to improve on your r/s. You somehow werent interested because you seem to be resigned to that fate. 
That moment, i really wanted to tell you that you deserve a better girl, but I didnt because I didnt want to be a third party.
That night, we sat over looking kallang river. Hearing the waves that crushes against the man made beach. You told me that you wanted to be a police. 
"Wow. To change the nation?"
"Not so noble. I just want to change the things around me."
"And because I am not interested to be in those tall buildings out there. It doesnt seem to have a meaning."
We both looked at the CBD that you're pointing to. 
"What a man." I whispered in my heart. 
That night, we shared. We shared so much that i know, I'm gonna miss this night. 
We bid goodnight, and we never talked again. 
I knew, that only on my birthday, would we rekindle our conversation. And true enough, you wished me at 3 am on my birthday, and told me that you wanted to wait till 12, but you gave into the zzz monster. 
I took the chance to ask you out, as a friend, to catch up on life. 
You said sure. so I was eagerly waiting for the day to arrive. 
But the weekend before, I met van, and told her about all these things. And i actually told her that I'm thinking of cutting you off my life,  for I cant handle this weird feelings anymore. 
Van said, "Maybe god purposely intertwine both of your lives, not for romantic reason. But to spread your positivity to him.Why cant you talk to him just like how you talk to me and just ask deep questions like how we always do."
Then i realised I cant. You've always treated me as a close friend, but you were never a friend to begin with. I've always treated this r/s gingerly and carefully. 
I knew that you only had a few shirts to wear, so I've alr got plans to buy you 2 uniqlo oxford shirts that week to pass to you on wed. But you told me that you had to OT, so we had to cancel our plans. 
I heaved a sigh of relief silently, and then I realised, i've viewed this friendship and outing too seriously. 
We have yet to decide when is the next outing going to be, but till then, my eyes continue to look at the man's section whenever I see a uniqlo outlet. 
People are so curious about my future boyfriend,but how and where do I even begin telling this story. 
One night, at a rooftop bar carpark, an intern shared my woes. And he said, "people like us, who rarely gave our hearts away. Once we did, its just too hard to move on."
I've honestly met so many god fearing and eligible men this year, but somehow, I'll always compare them to you. Nobody is as gentlemanly as you. 
Writing this, not because i've let you down, but i'm trying to close this chapter. I'm trying to tell myself to move on, to start a new chapter. 
And hopefully, the next time we meet, i can really meet you in a capacity of a close friend. 
Thank you for the past 1 year 2 months, J.

epcot
8:00 AM
Today is Epcot day! We weren’t as on the ball as usual in regards to getting ready today. Our plan was to get to the park by 9 but as it reached that time, we had yet to leave the house. We were worried that we were going to miss our one fast pass that we were allowed for the day, which was for the ride Test Track. But as it turned out, traffic and the line for parking were not as bad as expected. On the radio in the car, we heard a story about a man who left his gun in his bed (like an idiot) and in the middle of the night, the dog jumped up onto the bed and shot his wife in the butt. 
10:15 AM
Test Track
We headed straight for our fast pass ride when we arrived at Epcot and got through the line very quickly. Our first stop was at a big tv where we were able to create our own personalized racing car! We created a car named Piglet (in order to match Winona/Winnie which we drive on the regular) which was pink and quite stylin’. 
The idea of the ride was to test Piglet in four categories: power, responsiveness, efficiency, and capability. The only really cool part was the power component, where we sped around a track extremely fast, to see how well our car could hold up to the speed. 
10:45 AM
Mission: SPACE
For this ride, we had to choose between green (less intense) or orange (more intense). Obviously, we are adrenaline junkies and chose the MOST INTENSE. Maria was being a little baby about it because there were so many warning signs throughout the line up that suggested not riding if you were prone to motion sickness, and she had felt sick during the Simpsons ride two days prior. However, I knew what the ride was like and thus told her to man up and do it. This ride was a simulation that mimicked going into space and running into problems along the way. Maria was the navigator and I was the pilot, and the two random people we rode with were the commander and engineer. The most exciting part was liftoff, where you could actually feel yourself being pushed against the seat because the pressure was so intense. It was so strong that it made my one eye start to water a lot and my ears popped! 
WATER
The water section was basically all Finding Nemo. There we window shopped in the gift shop with a lot of cute stuffed animals. Then, we saw this ride with people riding in shells so we got into the line that we thought was for that. Alas, we were mistaken. We ended up waiting in line for Crushes Turtle Talk which is basically a show where an animated Crush picks out kids from the audience and answers their questions about being a turtle. Originally, we were disappointed that were stuck in this kids show, but we found ourselves laughing along and were impressed with how adult friendly the show was. We also loved how quick Crush was to respond to any question he was given. 
After that, we looked in the aquarium a bit and found that it was actually very big! Maria commented on how similar it was to something that you would pay $45 to see at Ripley’s aquarium in Toronto. We saw sharks, dolphins, sting rays, and even a manatee. 
We had done everything except for the shell ride, which we didn’t want to wait 45 mins for, so we moved on to the next section...
LAND
12:30 PM
This is where we ate lunch. I had Mongolian Beef with chicken fried rice and Maria ate shrimp stir fry. We were going to do the rides here, but the lines were long and we were excited to get to the main component of Epcot. 
AROUND THE WORLD
This area is 12 stations representing different countries and their cultures, positioned around a lake. Our first stop was our very own homeland. 
Canada
Here, we watched a 360 degree movie all about Canada and what makes it special. It had beautiful landscapes and we learned where the ship on the dime comes from! Martin Short was the host of this movie, which added some comedy to the film.
UK
We looked through many gift shops here and found Holland in the book of last names for crests, but no Nicula :( I guess Nicula truly is not a UK derived name. Surprise surprise. We also witnessed a man attempting to buy a sword, but he couldn’t because it was a danger to have in the park. The lady told him they would have to ship it to his home town which made him and his son quite unhappy. However, it was probably for the best because she saved him a solid $200. 
In the UK, we also listened to the end of a show from the band Quickstep, which performed folk music on the streets as we passed by. 
France
In France, we fell asleep. More, specifically, we fell asleep in an 18 minute long video of France which was much less exciting than Canada because instead of Martin Short’s jokes, they had soothing classical French music playing the entire time. 
Morocco
This was not a big stop for us, and we mainly just browsed the gift shops. Here they had many beautiful piece of jewellery, beaded head ornamentation, and belly dancing skirts, all of which we tried on. There was also an artifact gallery which displayed traditional clothing and accessories worn by those from Morocco in the past. 
Japan
The first thing we saw in Japan were 3 drummers performing in front of a pagoda with a big crowd watching. While listening to the drumming, we looked in a Kawaii museum, which was meant to explain how Japan created its cute culture. This is not a simplification, that is literally all the museum was. We saw many Hello Kitty and Pokemon figurines. 
In the gift shop, the kawaii continued with sailor moon, dragon ball z, and many cute figurines to choose from. There was also a pearl booth where one of the women took a live oyster/clam out of the water and cut it open to give each person their own individual pearl. 
Afterwards, we grabbed some shaved ice, which was rainbow flavoured and continued on our way. 
United States
There was not too much here, and we were not extremely interested in watching another 18 minute video about the American heritage. However, we did stumble upon the ending of an amazing acapella concert which took Maria’s breath away. She was very impressed from the three minutes we were there. 
Italy
This area was very beautiful- they had mock statues and the Trevi fountain was present. There were a lot of places to eat and we regretted getting fast food from LAND. Debbie had warned that there was an amazing wine cellar that sold cheese trays and other appetizers, but we did not stay to try it out. 
Germany 
This was Maria’s favourite architecture. Here we found out that Snow White is German, as well as Rapunzel. The area smelled of pretzels and beer, and seemed to be where many of the adults were located. We looked at some really expensive Swarovski crystals, like the amazing belle and beast figurine which was going for $14 000. So much for shopping here. 
Outpost
Here is an African style section, which unfortunately was never made into a full country. There were a couple of outdoor gift areas and a refreshment booth, but nothing else was in the area. 
China
We got to China right on time, as there was a show about to start so we sat among the crowd and waited. It turns out the show was some sort of acrobatic, circus like performance with many impressive balancing acts and a duet with the couple in rollerblades. At one point, they were spinning, with the girl attached to her partner by only a necklace and as she spun around her neck, I was positive she was going to die. BUT she was fine! 
China also had a huge gift shop, which include lots of Buddha’s that I wanted to buy.
Norway
We walked through the Norway gift shop, that had skin products, winter coats, and many Frozen memorobilia. There was also a bakery where I wanted to go because I still had pretzels on my mind, but they didn’t have what I was looking for. 
Mexico
This area is unique from the rest of the pavilions because it is completely indoors. You walk through a pyramid resembling Chichen Itza and it opens up into and indoor market, including a tequila bar, an Aribas Bros. shop, and a stunning looking restaurant under faux stars.
There was a ride here called the Grand Fiesta tour: in it, Donald Duck leaves Mexico city to be a tourist and see what makes up the rest of the country. However, he has left his two amigos alone right before they need to go on stage to perform! We sat in a boat and enjoyed watching as they searched Mexico for the missing Donald and eventually played us some tunes. 
5:30 PM
At this point, we decided it was time to leave Epcot so we took one last picture with the golf ball and were on our way. We headed back to the outlet mall to grab a couple of things that we had been thinking about from our trip there the day before, namely a pair of Nike running shoes for Maria and a lavender dress for me. 
On our way home, I started talking about the Walking Dead, which had gotten Maria intrigued. We stopped at Chilis for our dinner and spent the evening conversing about the show. So, of course, upon our arrival back to the hotel, we sat down and began to watch an entirely different type of show than our last one. 
- Jessica
P.S. We have decided to place the pictures in a separate post as to not stretch our lovely images.
