#but pls...no more saying that's what's TRUE....

➳ 10 years later (a sol brugmansia x gn!spouse!reader drabble)

cw: yandere themes, mentions of murder & injuries (in the past), themes of obsession and possessiveness, mc and sol had a kid together (consensually & can be depicted as biological/adopted), ooc!sol (writing him for the first time), domestic au, overall fluff w/ a bit of angst

a/n: there's only a few fics of sol from tkatb vn and im a bit disappointed ngl so imma contribute (and planning on writting for tkatb hehe). but pls note that this game is for adults (18+) only and respect the creator's wishes in terms of playing the game (minors stay away plss)

"papa.." a small voice snapped the thoughts of sol as he stared into the painting he created a decade ago; a painting whom he considered as a masterpiece, a memorabilia and serves as a core memory of his entire life. sol's head turned downward and saw his own daughter raising her hands indicating that she wants to get some upsies. (e/c) colored eyes stared at his reddish ones, now soften as he picks up the little girl from the ground. "yes, munchkin?" sol replied to hazel, her little fingers pointing at the figure next to her father.

his head turned to see what, or whom rather, his little girl is pointing towards. "who's the person next to you?" he stared your portrait next to him, dressed in an all white attire while holding a bouquet of forget-me-nots and a brugmansia flower is seen on the top of your head as a gleaming smile is shown on the portrait.

the same portrait he painted all those years ago.

he looks at hazel, an awestruck smile is seen on his face. "that's your mama/dada. they're looking majestic and radiant, aren't they?" the little girl nodded in return, jumping within his arms as if to express on what her father is saying is true all along. "mama/dada is indeed radiant! like a shooting star passing through the sky!" sol let out a soft chuckle at his daughter's answer.

that remind of sol about someone, where are you anyway?

just as he is about to ask hazel on where you are, the door opened revealing his precious spouse, carrying loads of paper bags from the trip to the grocery store. hazel quickly jumped off from her father and quickly clinged into your leg. "mama/dada, you're home!!" she squeaked and giggled as you continuously walked into the kitchen whole carrying what you've bought an hour ago. "hazel, watch it or you might hit your head on the ground." you said out of concern, placing the bags on the counter quickly and carried your daughter into your arm, giving her a kiss on the forehead.

"no kisses for me?" sol teasingly asked while giving you a pouty face. "of course, you deserve one too, dear." putting down hazel on the ground, you quickly leaned in and kissed him on the lips and felt a pair of hands on your waist, pulling you closer towards his black tank top. hazel let's out a gag, trying to separate the both of you from your declaration of love from one another. "that's disgusting!" hazel exclaimed, pulling her father off of you. "I want more kisses mama/dada!!" you laughed from the commotion that took place in front of you.

"one day, you'll be just like this with someone you truly love, zel." you spoke, still clinging into your husband's arm. "don't wanna, that's disgusting." hazel replied, pouting as her arms crossed in between her chest. her father shrugged and proceeded to place a kiss on your cheek. "who knows," sol said, staring directly at you. "you may find someone whom you considered as a soulmate, like your mama/dada here."

your eyes widen a bit from being flustered, slapping his arm lightly. "oh hush you, you never failed to make me like this even after 10 years of marriage." a laugh emitted from the both of you as hazel continuously pouted from her parents answer. the sound of laughter faded away from his ears and only what's left is the sound of ringing. from the inner depths of sol's mind, he will never forget how far he can go for him to obtain this domestic life.

all the bloodshed..

his possessiveness..

the smell of iron and the familiar grip of a sharp object..

obsession and greed to keep (m/c) all to himself..

and all thanks to that, he obtained the family he always wanted, a family that is far more different than his. no abuse, no bruises or harm is present within his little family. just you, his precious pumpkin and his little munchkin.

he hopes that you'll never know the truth on what happened to crowe. who knows? maybe he went on another country to pursue his master's or doctorate? or perhaps also having a family of his own and awaiting for his message to meet his children.

or is it??

final a/n: named the daughter 'hazel' since it's associated with autumn and pumpkins (the endearment sol referring to the player), couldn't picked a better name i apologize :'>>

Nadie Más Que Tú

I wanted to try writing something, I love reading everyone’s beautiful work on here so I thought I'd write my own for funsies.

Just to preface I've never actually written anything before so I'm sorry if it's straight booty cheeks and doesn't make a whole lotta sense.

general warnings/cw: 18+ pls no minors ty, fem!reader, mentions of drinking/going to a bar, eventual smut. lmk if I’ve forgotten anything!

♡o .✿ฺ ✿ฺ ♡o.✿ฺ。✿ฺ♡o.✿ฺ。✿ฺ♡o。.✿ฺ。ฺ ♡

You’ve been casually dating for six months now yet you only ever really see him on weekends and even that’s rare, hell you hadn’t even been intimate with the guy. But today was different. He didn’t have work due to a company dinner he was taking you to. So he decided to take you to the mall. Like a date?

“Are you sure you don’t want anything? I already told you it’s fine if you use my card.” Miguel said, trying to persuade you into buying something.

“I’m fine, I don’t need anything.”

This was true, what more could you want? You have a closet full of clothes and literally anything else you could want thanks to him.

“They have a boutique here, we could buy you a dress for tonight’s dinner.” He suggested.

It was like he was trying to get you to spend his money. Kinda cute honestly.

“Mm.. I guess?” You said a bit hesitant, still not wanting to spend his money.

You head over to the boutique and you start trying on different dresses with the help of one of the workers. Though none of the dresses seemed to be “the one”.

“We just got a beautiful dress shipped in if you want to try that one on.” The worker said.

“Let’s see it!” You said enthusiastically.

The worker goes into the back and brings out a gorgeous burgundy dress. It was long, had intricate lace backing, and a thigh high slit. You excitedly get into the changing room and put it on.

You walk out of the dressing room, it fits perfectly. The fabric hugs your curves in just the right ways, not to mention the color and how well it compliments your skin.

“You like it?” You give Miguel a little twirl to show it off and you SWEAR you saw him blush a little.

He pauses for a second, like he’s lost in a train of thought before he speaks. “It looks fine.” Is all he says though. A little disappointing of a response but.. at least he liked it?

“I’ll take it..!” You say with a smile.

You and Miguel walk out of the boutique, new dress in hand. You have a huge smile on your face.

“Thank you!” you say giving him a quick peck on the cheek.

“It’s no problem.” He says with a faint smile.

He then wrapped his arm around your waist as you walked back to his car to leave and get ready at his place for dinner. Weird.. he isn’t usually very affectionate or the type to touch you in public…

— — —

About 30 minutes before dinner you were about done getting ready, putting on your new dress and some other accessories.

As you’re getting ready you just can’t shake off the thought of Miguel putting his arm around you like that, it makes your heart flutter a bit just thinking about it. What did it mean-

Your thoughts were interrupted by Miguel’s voice.

“You ready?”

He was still putting on his tie when he walked in the room.

“Yeah, I’m ready. Are we leaving now?” You looked up at him.

He kinda just stands in the doorway for a second, staring…

“Ah, yeah. Let’s go.” He cleared his throat and walked out.

Weird.. what was that about… he’s been like this ever since you left the boutique...

— — —

Dinner was pretty normal. If normal was horribly boring. All they were doing was talking about business stuff that you had absolutely no interest in. You were bored out of your mind.

Eventually the conversation shifts in a different direction. “So, how did you two meet?” One of Miguel’s co-workers asks. “We had no idea Miguel had a girlfriend.” Another spoke up.

You were a little caught off guard by the question and the response it got from the other co-worker… How did you guys meet..

“We met through a mutual friend.” You replied, sheepishly picking up your drink and taking a sip.

That was a lie. You actually met at a bar, nothing too crazy but it doesn’t sound very professional and you didn’t wanna embarrass Miguel.

You were down at a bar late at night with some of your girlfriends when you spotted a cutie all by himself. He looked a little older, just your type. With a little “Be right back!” you made your way over to him and started some small talk.

“This seat taken?”

“Depends who’s asking.”

Nonchalant type. I can work with that.

“I’ll take that as a no.”

You sit down and scoot yourself closer to him.

“What’s that?” You say pointing at his drink

“Whiskey.”

“Ugh, so boring..”

You picked up his drink and were about to take a sip when he gently grabbed it back.

“That’s unsanitary.” He gave a fake scowl.

“You almost didn't stop me.” You smile up at him proudly.

He scoffed.

“You got insta?”

“Excuse me?”

You rolled your eyes

“I thought you were older but I didn’t think you were that old.” You smirked. Sliding your already unlocked phone over to him.

He looked at you hesitantly before taking your phone and typing something in. He set your phone down before getting up and walking away without another word. Rude. With a giddy smile you pick up your phone and read.

don’t have one

That bastard…

— — —

“She’s just as amazing as the day we met.” Miguel chimed in.

“That’s really sweet!” The co-worker cooed.

You looked up at Miguel and smiled. He then rested one of his hands on your thigh, causing a swarm of butterflies in your stomach. He was doing it again.. so oddly affectionate.

The rest of the evening went smoothly. However, you still couldn’t shake off that weird feeling. Up until this point things with Miguel had never been this way. You treated each other like close friends most of the time.

The time to leave eventually rolled around and you both headed home, you could feel a strange tension in the car. You kept looking over at him but he looked fine.

I’m probably just tired..

Once home you noticed his demeanor had changed, he was acting a little strange but you tried to think nothing of it, he was probably just tired too.

You headed to his bedroom with him. As you went to close the door you turned around to find Miguel was standing in front of you, arms crossed.

“What are you doing..?” You ask fully confused on why he was standing there like that.

Miguel stepped closer to you, pushing you against the door. You could feel your heart pounding in your chest, faster than you ever thought possible. He was much bigger than you, and that was very clear in this moment.

He leaned his head down close to your ear.

“You have no idea how fucking good you look in that dress.” Miguel whispered the vibration of his voice going straight to your core.

You could practically see the lust in his eyes.

“I thought about doing this in the dressing room at the boutique.” He said now running his hand down your curves.

You laughed nervously, squirming a bit. This has to be a joke… right?

“Miguel–” You tried to speak.

He turned you around on the door pressing himself against you again, you could feel his hard-on against your ass. Nope, definitely not a joke.

“How much did you have to drink?” You asked nervously as he pressed kisses on the back of your neck.

“I didn’t drink tonight.” He replied.

He then wrapped his arms around your waist resting his head on your shoulder.

“I just want you, I’ve wanted you..” He whispered into the shell of your ear, the words coming out of his mouth like honey. You could feel the wetness pool in your panties at the sound.

Fuck. He’s so hot. Why is he so hot? What is happening?!

I think Niko is shipping Olli and Aleksi…👀

oh, for sure 😌 and he's absolutely right to do so as well <3

so yeah who else tried googling 'michael jackson anti-gravity lean meme' or something to figure out what the hell that was all about. I mean not meeeee

#i couldn't find anything noteworthy so i guess this will remain another mystery 😔 #what i'm about to say next is 100% fictional and just a delulu headcanon so pls don't actually think i believe it's true but hear me out: #imagine niko having noticed olli and aleksi are into each other but too oblivious (or scared) to do anything about it #and so he puts his best efforts in trying to sort of...lead them towards each other 🥺 #oof i should shut up before i'll headcanon them being misearable in their current relationships #(which i'm sure they're not!! i'm just headcanoning 100% fictional scenarios!! not speculating!! i know nothing!!) #and niko knowing about / having noticed that too. thus providing him one more reason to make them see how good they'd be together #i swear i'm not obsessed about them being cheaters lol #rather i'm obsessed with the trope 'yes they're dating person X and are relatively happy #but then they meet person B and realise who they should actually be with' 🤧 #because sometimes that happens okay?! 😭 #sorry for the somewhat irrelevant rant lol i'm avoiding real-life responsibilites 🤡 #answered asks #anon ask #ollixallu

Hi Toxooz, how do you get yourself to draw so frequently? 👀👀👀

bc i have literally 84 things going on at once in my brain at all times that my highly visually obsessed brain Has To physically get in front of my eyes so that i can see or else will i think abt it over and over again and Brother I'm always envisioning things characters scenes scenarios outfits designs colors all of it in my cranium like angry itchy itchy ITCHY bees until i draw them out lmfao even if i don't know what to specifically draw at the current moment imma still end up drawing somehow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think at this point it's literally hardwired into my brain that I Gotta draw its what I've been doing since I could hold a pencil tbh it's how i cope with being -gestures vaguely- Here and alive, i actually gotta force myself to take a day off and schedule days where I DONT draw bc I know it's wearing on my hands and wrists 😬 I guess physically drawing grounds me in a way and keeps me (mostly) sane like if I don't draw for a few days i start getting Vaguely Antsy it's fukkin weird and i think at this point my love for my characters has surpassed like any form of art block if that makes sense??? like they literally take up 92% of my brain if not more, and the only way to see them is to draw them but yeah it's just what i do it's my jelly n my jam which is why I'm literally so glad i realized that i don't want to make drawing a job/career bc God help me if i start dreading drawing bc of the stress of money I've been drawing like crazy for like 2 decades straight and I only wanna draw more man idk!!!!! It's just one of them 'how the brain formed around what you do an assload of times' thangs

Answer translation: idk I just like to draw a lot lmfao

#its like the kids say ✨💅its how i express myself✨💅 #and dont get it twisted im aware this is not healthy lmfao #dont aspire to b like me just draw or dont draw man its abt the want #like i said drawing is just What I Do at this point i didnt train theres not some ''oh draw for at least 30 minutes a day' shit #i draw fast as shit (probably obviously ) and so much its probably unnatural AHA #the secret is make drawing the only outlet for your brain to not completely self implode at the mere idea of existing #for 24 years!!!!! :) #honestly thats why im getting progressively more Tired when every mf and their grandma tries to convince me to sell my shits #like brother this is a part of me how can i give away something i created and inevitably formed a bond with for like 100 bucks #i caint do it and so if i go in with the expectation to imediately give it away then man i dont even want to be making art in the first pl #like for me Personally if im not going to make something that i fall in love with and want to look at occasionally then #Literally what is the point of me making anything #what is the point of me making my body and mind create a piece if not for my own personal joy??? #but thats just physical art ig #like digital stuff and selling it for money if some1 wants it im aight but physical paintings??? that shit is Me and Mine #like just bc i Can make art doesnt immediately mean i need to make money from it yknow #my brother in christ when it comes to the the only true outlet for me to find joy and inspiration in living i Do Not care about money #i will take any amount of shitty job abuse if it means i conserve my passion #ill get a scarring accident from welding before i will stress cry over a deadline for a project that i dont even want to do #absolutely terrified of that path and feeling it is The Worst for me #like literally thank FUCK i realized this when i was just in a community college and not balls deep in debt at some fancy university #granted late as all hell and all my opportunities of taking free welding classes in my early years have long passed but still glad #just stick me on an abandoned island with canvases n paint n shit and ill b fine #god knew if i managed my time better and wasnt Really Fucking Exhausted all the time i would be unstoppable #like ofc making money while drawing what i want is the dream no doubt but the chances of that are slim and the road to get there is even #slimmer #ANYWAY holy shit not to get hella preachy but i have Thots

[rhizomehaunt]

I think a good way to sum up my mental health right now is that I've been quoting Galadriel saying "the quest stands upon the edge of a knife. stray but a little, and it will fail, to the ruin of all," daily when asked how I'm doing.

#but actually this is how everything feels #like #the straw that broke the camel's back? pls it's been broken #i am just here moving through what is most definitely collapse #every day i start with so little and every day i seem to end at a deficit #my partner and i keep being like wow we need something good to happen real bad #and we've been saying that for about a year now #anyways financial precarity job insecurity life instability covid eugenics communal abandonment chronic illness etc etc etc #stray but a little and it will fail on repeat #it sounds more morbid and maudlin than it is but honestly this line is a comfort to me rn because its like well this is what it is #and knowing the constraints or haunt of something is what lets you move through it as carefully as you can #“yet hope remains while the company is true”

[agayconcept]

my youtube algorithm has gotten all sorts of fucked up so:

☆ give me ur youtube channel / show / series recommendations !! ☆

#anything is welcome except anything discussing in depth mental illness or any hospitalization #thats triggering for me #besides that- go for it! #things i like for reference: #food / travel / podcasts / true crime or mystery but not by white influencers pls its always offensive / art / animation / AITA type stuff #idk what else....basically everything? #sensory videos / music / documentary style videos r always gr8 #gaming vids r fun too just not in depth stuff i prefer speed runs and just-for-fun weird stuff #mmmm what else. idk tbh most things r gr8 #but i would love more of both a) mindless funny and/or entertaining videos & b) educational interesting videos #like idk more stuff along the lines of both: #channels like Watcher (entertaining & mostly mindless) and Defunctland (educational & interesting & occasionally cursed) #send me ur stuffs !!!!! #youtube #recs #help save my yt home page bc it is a barren wasteland these days #(comedy is fine too just...nothing offensive or straddling that line. we can be funny without being dickwads y'all. it aint hard.) #(had to unfollow several youtubers recently bc they got too many followers and within a few vids were saying some wack ass offensive shit- #bc if ur an influencer there r apparently no consequences and u can just run ur mouth !!! new level unlocked !! ya no lol. no nope nah.)

[lee-kangin]

something i’ve seen frequently in football circles especially with the rise of social media (where ppl engage with the sport in absolutely bizarre ways but that’s another topic for another day) is this longstanding obsession with ‘(winning) mentality.’ how is it quantified? how do you prove its existence? how consistent must it be for a club to acquire this ‘mentality?’ it’s just bonkers to me because you’d assume that every club and every fanbase would want to win, just some a) have better resources to do so or b) some overperform/underperform as is the case with any sport which leads to drawing some kind of conclusions about this ‘mentality’ or c) some fanbases just have a better time rationalising a potential loss within the external factors which of course also leads to drawing conclusions about this ‘mentality.’ i guess my problem with it is just that it’s become such a buzzword where teams get either praised or insulted for their mentality when it’s so subjective and influenced by other factors too (doing well, doing badly, general trajectory of the club, personal satisfaction with individual achievements, media opinion, etc).

#was looking at absolutely ludicrous exchanges on the bird app and it’s just like ? #for example woolwich fans (and henry) saying tottenham fans have a weak mentality for being satisfied with a draw #which a) is not true and b) one could point to their team being on top of the league all season and croaking during the run in #is that winning mentality? but then again you could argue that they had a young squad that overperformed massively #and even then you would be ignoring external factors in all of these situations which for spurs’ case would be #having a fresh starting xi most of whom are young and haven’t played for the team/pl (on this level) before #and that historically tottenham have had an abysmal record at the emirates so a draw and positive footy are taken as a good result #and for woolwich (calling them this bc i don’t want fights lol) you’ve also got to see that #the season had a full wc in the middle and many many other top 4-6 teams underperformed #i just feel like this buzzword that we’ve got now this mentality is disguising #discussions abt the core issues of a team or even halfway intellectual discussions abt football #and it’s a bit discouraging like you want to talk abt a club struggling or doing well and it’s like it’s the mentality harhar #mentality at its essence is important don’t get me wrong you’re more likely to play better for a team if you believe you can do well #but every fan can point to times of good and bad mentality. what’s more important is that the captains get up and the whole squad believes #in itself and whatever it is that is binding them together and just have faith #that’s what makes the winning so special. not so much the mentality and the potential pressure it puts on a player and club to perform #but that belief in something beyond just winning that is what makes it consistent #in a perfect world anyway in reality the richest clubs win that’s just the way things go

#my art #vampire #vampires #???? whatever LOL. this is for u tori #ALSO I RECOMMEND ZOOMING IN A LITTLE TO SEE DETAILS AND STUFF PLS I WORKED HARD ON THIS #the link in the caption is just to the song i took the line from btw! that song makes me think of u so consider it my song 2 u <333 #(because i love you so much you see) #your name isnt patricia. but replace that with tori and its perfect #anyway toriiiii youre my best friend forever you are my treasure and my sun and i love you so so much...... auuuohhgh............. #youre one of my oldest friends we met back in 2017 i think and well this is a little embarrassing to say. #but GAH ever since we met i really really loved you so much youre like my favorite person & u always were. #i hope that doesnt sound insincere its a little embarrassing cause it sounds so cheesy but like /gen its true i love you to bits and pieces #anyway! uh! so! some notes abt this drawing! #ive been listening to a lot of f+tm lately so while i drew this with patricia in mind i was actually undecided about the lyrics 4 da caption #i was torn between this and 'you know i still like you the most / youll always be my favorite ghost' from big god #i went with patricia though cause that song as a whole is relevant whereas big god is more of a sad (???) sorta song #HOWEVER!!!!!! i improvised a lot w this drawing in comparison with what i was envisioning in my head #so a lot of things were made up on the spot like the golden rose for example #it was based off of a misheard line from one of the NEW f+tm songs (girls against god) #where she goes 'i met the devil / you know‚ he gave me a choice / a golden heart or a golden voice' #but i misheard voice as rose and that is how i came up with an INCREDIBLY rich fiction about you turning vampire #except. well i dont know but knowing YOU im sure you already have a very romantic and beautiful idea of how you came to be a vampire prince #but in my head i keep thinkin first and foremost that you live alone in an old overgrown mansion in the woods kinda like minecraft pillagers #but like. alone/possibly with the trapped ghosts of people whove died there over the years. #and then based on the misheard lyrics i imagine you were offered a choice by the devil to either die as a martyr but live on as a saint OR #to become immortal (symbolized by the golden rose) but at the cost of losing your humanity and having to Kill and Drink Blood. #and other vampire stuff. and i guess you chose the rose! but then youre stuck with the guilt of insatiable bloodlust and profound loneliness #oh and i guess you were also a prince before you gave up your humanity. so the mansion could also be a castle #annnnnnd (pretend like im not making this up additionally on the spot please) i can imagine your kingdom once worshipped the sun! #UMMM TUMBLR CUT OFF MY TAGS SO UHH TO HEAR THE REST OF THE RICH FICTION YOULL HAVE TO MESSAGE ME TORI. SORYR

If you prefer the newer seasons of ninjago over the older seasons (pilot-s5/s7) we are fundamentally different people

#kind of a neutral statement #s8 and s9 get excused to an extend but i will not for forgive them for garma/don #s6 and s7 aren't that amazing to me but they get a pass bc at least they feel like they're about the same characters as the prev seasons #and similair with 8 and 9 except yeah..... this is where it starts...... #s11+ means little to me in regards to characters. sure they have some cool stuff and the stories are neat (i love s12 SOO much for example) #but. yeah it's what i call the cardboard treatment because most characters especially when they're not the focus feel like - #- cardboard cutout versions of themselves #guys isn't zane so funny because he's a robot hahaha! what a source of comedy that is so in character! /s #and i'm not gonna say that i hate the new seasons cause that's not true #i bawled my fucking eyes out at s15 #but it's. kind of a different show to me and the characters often feel off. #also some recurring things that i'm sooooo annoyed at sigh ugh ugh ugh #also they start this thing around s6 where for some reason the police is involved?? #and the explorer's club pls fucking DIE #it's fine if you like the chicken also man but holy crap this is just NOT for me at all #the older seasons were many times more charming and if you disagree then - well we simply have differenzt tastes #which is fine #but my god it's something i do need to point out #i didn't actually mean to ramble so much but yeah......... #one of my favorite examples is the reduction of jay's and zane's characters to goofy guy and robot smart guy #the taking jay's inventing skills is the most insane thing they have done to date and they openly admit this this is literally a thing #they really only cared about tropes and archetypes at this point even though this is simply NOT where ninjago shines #i feel like someone might unfollow mr for this but you literally don't have to #it's all fine! just feel like saying this every now and then because ninjago is one of the shows that have been THE most special in my life #forgot the / for ninja/go oh wel l sorry #the reasons i like this show lie in the early seasons and not the later ones

truly am being reminded that matty healy is. a person who says things, of late.

#cripes #thing is like it's not that i didn't know that already. he's a rockstar in the vein of like. the sex pistols et al #i.e. going on record saying and doing outrageous offensive stuff trying to ruffle feathers. irrespective of whether he believes it or not #same vibes as the og punks who went on TV interviews w/ swastika armbands #and to the point of 'why is taylor swift dating him' well #i think this woman is never ever gonna pay any attention to any news or sm criticism of anyone. no matter how valid it might be #bc of past precedent n personal experience. and given as his nonsense appears to be more or less part of his stage persona #(not an excuse but i do think it's true that it's largely a bit) #he wouldn't be making comments like that in private around her. hence further reinforcement of the idea that its overblown noise #idk. what do i know #im just rambling #iona.txt #princess troubadour #matty healy #dnrb pls
