"why aren't you sitting with the others?" you hear a french accent speak from behind, pulling you out of the trance the chaos of the paddock put you in. you recognize him as Charles, one of the ferrari drivers.
"I don't know them that well yet honestly, im new to the company and city. I just didn't want to intrude on their space," you sigh as you lean on the half wall next to you.
his eyes perk up with curiosity, "you're new to monaco? I wouldn't have guessed, you uh have the french accent."
"I was, uh, raised in paris somewhat, my mother lives there."
Charles hums with acknowledgment. you both spend the next few minutes getting to know each other.
"I have to go do some media stuff, but why don't you join my friends and me out this week? we can introduce you to some proper monegasque spots and help you fall in love with my city, what do you say?"
"tu peux compter sur moi," you respond smiling.
he exchanges contact information with you promising to reach out soon with details, and you wish him good luck with the rest of the weekend.
(translation: you can count me in)

it's race day and the paddock is buzzing with excitement and anticipation ahead of one of the most notable races of the year. the track is flooded with media, fans, and crew members from each of the teams.
Lando is standing in the mclaren garage surrounded by engineers rebriefing him on strategy ahead of the race in a few hours. staring into the crowd, he tunes out his team as you walk by. he may not quite sure who you are, but he's sure he has seen you before.
his eyes follow you and disappointment tugs at his chest as he sees you walk into the ferrari garage.

Dropping random One Piece ideas bc this is it now. This is how I cope.
Buggy focused bc I love this little blue haired buffoon
Buggy
• AuDHD
• BPD
• gender is a performance and he LOVES THE SPOTLIGHT BABYYYY
• Buggy is actually a year or so younger than Shanks, and they both use this as an insult point for arguments. Buggy calls him old man, Shanks calls him a teeny tiny little clown baby, Buggy punches Shanks, Shanks cries dramatically, the works.
• in my perception between them, their relationship could go either way - I love the interpretation of them seeing one another as brothers, I love the interpretation of them being lovers, I think either one fits them and it's precious and depending on the Shuggy flavor of the day. It's never both at the same time though. One or the other.
• Buggy has always been terrifyingly flexible. It was waved off when he was very little, but it was only around the time Crocus joined the crew that he noticed Buggy was much more flexible than most kids his age. Turns out baby blue has hypermobility syndrome. The Roger pirates helped him learn wrapping techniques to help stabilize his wrists and knees and hips, his biggest problem areas, but after the Devil Fruit Fiasco, he can and will just drop a limb. Floating is so much easier on bad pain days.
• Buggy still wraps and braces his body when he can, but he also hides most of them beneath his clothes. Few have seen him freely in braces. Cabaji and Mohji are the most familiar with that. Ritchie takes his role thereof as a living, furry weighted heating pad.
• kinesthetic and visual stimming Buggy my beloved.
• sometimes he's just. Touch Alvida. Not in a weird way, just... her Devil Fruit makes her skin and hair feel absolutely DIVINE and he can spend hours just. Playing with her fingers or brushing her hair. He's embarrassed by it.
• he has a very meticulous skin and hair care routine. It's one of very few routines he keeps to. Not even being in prison stopped it.
• he's actually really damn good with money and running a business. The situation with the Cross Guild was a Bad Time, Bad Place, Bad Luck situation, which is honestly just his brand at this point.
• He was a warlord for all of a few months, but in that time, he did, in fact, have to attend a few meetings, and he did, in fact, make a friend! A friend nobody ever expected.
• Boa Hancock and Buggy are the most underrated Mean Girls Squad ever and I'll die on that hill, I think they'd be so funny as friends. Ask me more on my Boa Buggy Besties ideas please I am begging I love them so much
• Cross Guild happens, and it goes fairly similar to Canon, but Buggy quite literally within that three week time frame got the entirety of his loan back AND the interest and was like "hey so like. Did you still want this or-?"
• the mercenaries at Karai Bari are all very progressive. Buggy is a lax ruler, by most standards, but he puts his foot down firmly regarding bigotry, racism, sexism, etc.
• Buggy is not actually human, but he doesn't know that. He was orphaned at a VERY early age, was adopted by Roger pretty young, and he doesn't really remember much pre-piracy. He does know his genetics are a little weird, #ThanksCrocus, but not much beyond that. This may be Important later on if anyone wants some silly little concepts
• demisexual nblm, but once he catches feelings, he becomes a harlot harlequin
• once took off a limb and forgot where he left it. Has genuinely devoted microchipping his limbs.
• some people have comfort activities like hiking or painting. He makes bombs. It's very soothing and he likes the BOOM
• has a multitude of explosives btw; everything from large range, highly damaging, lethal weapons, to flashy, mildly inconveniences. He once made a batch of mini muggy balls full of itching powder just to see if he could and now it's his favorite thing to prank people with. ((Yes, he designed those while a Warlord. Yes, he tested it on the Navy. No, he was never definitively caught.))
• when he's busy, he ties his hair in a bun and puts pens, pins, etc in his hair, ends up looking like a porcupine or sea urchin.
• he has a really bad habit of hyperfixating for hours upon hours on end. Galdino, Alvida, Mohji and Cabaji have a rotation system to check on him if he hasn't been seen for 5 or more hours. They'll drag him away from his work (some more gently than others), make him eat, drink, etc. ((Alvida huffs and puffs about it, but she's also among the first ones to wipe a grease smear from his face, look him over head to toe and determine whether she's pulling the Girls Night card. She will die before admitting that she adores this bastard.))
• Buggy is allergic to pineapples.
That's all I got rn okay ily byyyeeee

Hello :3
Soo...here Is another jeff the killer x reader.⬇️
Femboy! Jeff the killer x reader
😋
GUH FEMBOYS 🫶🫶
(Btw i know there may be some misconception, but when i say femboy, i am writing about a boy, who identifies as a boy, and just likes dressing/acting feminine. Im not using femboy in a transphobic way, and ill never use it that way)
TW: Brief mentions of abuse
Thank you so much for requesting!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Femboy!Jeff x reader
Tumblr media
I would think that Jeff grew up in a very emotionally abusive household
His parents were trying to mold him and Liu into what they wanted as kids, rather than just letting them expressing themselves and figuring out who they are as people
And so because of this, Jeff never really got to experiment with his appearance until he joined Slender's manor
It started off very minor, with things like dying his hair, getting his ears pieced, and wearing more alternative styled clothes
Since he was just always raised with the belief that "Boys don't wear makeup or dresses because that's feminine" the thought to act more feminine never really crossed his mind
So I think that he would have only recently started expressing that more feminine side of himself
It was probably you who helped him realize he could tbh
You guys would be talking in your bedroom, just hanging out and he'd bring up that he always wanted to try being more feminine in his appearance, because he likes to confuse people as to what he even is
He just likes looking genderless idk
And you were like "Ok so do that. No one's gonna stop you"
He got quiet for a moment before going "Oh yeah...I guess no one will stop me"
Because of his pride however, he would not wear those things in public for a very long time
Only you could see him in his makeup and dresses
But you manage to convince him to just go out with you and have a photoshoot where both of you are dressed as the opposite sex
This makes him feel more comfortable and confident, because if anyone sees him, he will at least have an excuse as to why he is all dolled up
And of course, someone does see him
"Woah, Jeff dude, you look like you just crawled out of Jane's closet"
"I'm doing a photoshoot, fuck off"
You will have to help him with his makeup, because lord knows his ass does not have steady hands
It frustrates him to no end when his eyeliner isn't even
AND OH MY GOD DOES HE LOOK GORGEOUS
HE'S SO BABYGIRL HE'S SERVING SO MUCH CUNT
Anyways, that's enough of that
I feel like he likes to wear really flowy dresses and big trad goth makeup
He doesn't really like skirts unless they're maxi skirts
When he does eventually get comfortable enough to go out in the manor dressed up, he will get many compliments
And if he goes out in public, you will have to herd him away from all the catcalls
His ego gets such a major boost
Good luck not letting it go to his head
Ben jokes around with him, asking what his drag name is and when he'll be able to bring home money from RuPaul's Drag Race
He's a silly guy, your honor <333

I just read up your post on merc not favoring nico throughout his career. With all the british bias sky/any other medias had against him back in the day, it's definitely interesting when nico decided to join them, always made me wonder how he felt about all of that. Also, did he really sign more than 100 million euros in 2016? That's some insane negotiation skill, considering he hasn't been a wdc 😭
the thing about relationships between sports people and the media is that it's inherently weird. because yes, these people often talk shit about you on the television, but you also often see them more than you see your own family. you share flights with them, and meals, and you see them not just at work, but also in airports and train stations and restaurants and hotels. and both sides need each other. the media need drivers and team personnel to want to talk to them (and sometimes leak them information) and the drivers and teams need the media for coverage, advertising, and to drive certain narratives. and for both sides, the people that you are on camera may not always be who you are off camera, and there is a certain recognition of that.
for nico, while i would say that while the british media treated him fairly terribly during 2014-2016, there were still moments where they acknowledged how good he was. there was this very odd phase in the monza-suzuka section of the 2016 calendar, where it was looking increasingly likely that nico was going to win the championship, and sky were suddenly nice about nico. they wrote articles about how wonderful nico was as a person and said it was a shame that people didn't get to see that side of nico (even though they were the ones portraying him in a certain way), they did a review of the hybrid era and recognised that nico had had more bad luck across the era than lewis, (although lewis had probably had slightly worse luck in 2016) and where earlier race wins like bahrain, china and russia (where he began on the front row and then led all the way to the end) were described as boring and unchallenged, race wins like monza and japan (which were almost identical to the earlier wins) were described as faultless and perfect. even when they were being terrible to him, there were moments that were good.
additionally, a lot of the british hate towards nico only began in 2014. prior to that, coverage was largely positive. nico was driving terrible cars, but he was driving them incredibly well. he dragged some of the shittiest williams cars in their history to places that they should not have been, including onto the podium. i would have to check, but i'm pretty sure that during his time at williams, nico was their only podium finisher. he absolutely destroyed his teammates (the only teammate he never beat in his career was mark webber, who was his teammate during his rookie year, when they were driving a car that spent more time on fire than it did racing), and when he went to mercedes he beat michael schumacher pretty convincingly (only schumi teammate to ever beat him btw). before he became a threat to lewis, the british media were actually quite complimentary about him. so for nico, it's a question of three years of negative coverage versus eight years of pretty good coverage (personally i would still have told them to fuck off).
there's also the fact that nico does triple duty for sky, as he works for sky germany and sky italy too, often in the same weekend. so sky are willing to pay him essentially three times to do one job, which seems like a pretty good deal to me, and i don't think the german or italian coverage of him was ever quite as harsh as the british media, so that might also be a factor. he clearly enjoys what he does, he gets to show up in his little linen beach outfits, say whatever he likes, and leave as the paddock implodes because he's just dropped information that the fia didn't want anyone to know about. truly an icon.
as for the contract extension, yeah it was insane. i think it may have even been for as much as 137 million euros, almost 70 million per year, which is a legitimately insane amount of money for any driver, let alone one who has never won a wdc. as i said, i think nico actually had quite a lot of power/leverage when it came to signing the contract because of what was happening internally at mercedes at the time. also, back then, a lot of merc's biggest sponsors, hugo boss, thomas sabo, etc. were actually nico sponsors, and if he went to ferrari, they would have gone with him, so there was definitely a financial incentive to keep him, but still, georg nolte and gerhard berger definitely earned their money in those negotiations

"Nico for sure used to do karting under a fake name" obsessed with this idea.
Baby Nico and baby Lewis meeting at a karting competition and immediately becoming best friends. Lewis doesn't really hang out with the other kids because they're mean to him and they hate that he beats them, but Nico is nice to him, telling him what a good race he had and inviting him to join her for lunch. Lewis thinks that Nico is so cool. She knows so much about F1 and loves karting too, plus her dad knows so much and is nice to him, which can't be said about all of the parents (I feel like Keke would just shave off his moustache and suddenly become unrecognisable).
Nico and Lewis spend months emailing back and forth, and are always so excited to see each other at karting events. Lewis's sisters tease him SO MUCH about the photos he has of him and Nico, which annoys him so much because they're just friends shut up Nicola! (That's actually Lewis's sister's name btw) Lewis thinks it's a bit weird that Nico and her dad always travel with six really muscular guys (I do think Mika should be in charge of Nico's security), but Nico says that it's just for protection, and once Lewis's dad has talked about it with Keke and is totally fine with it, Lewis stops worrying.
Nico invites Lewis on holiday and he gets to do so many cool things for the first time with her. He gets to ride in a private plane, ride in a helicopter, go surfing and snorkeling and scuba diving. And through all of this he still has no idea that Nico is a princess. Everyone around them speaks in French, which Lewis doesn't understand, and he assumes that when the bodyguards call Nico princess, it's just a cute nickname. He just assumes that all of the weird stuff about Nico and her family is because they're rich, not because they're royal.
One night when they're teenagers, Nico and Lewis sneak out to go to a nightclub in the local town (Mika following them so he knows they're safe). They have a few drinks and get a little tipsy but mostly dance. Nico even helps Lewis flirt with a local girl, and Lewis makes sure that no one bothers Nico. Unfortunately, the paparazzi finds out that Nico is there, and when they leave, they get photographed. Mika steps in to make sure they're safe, but the pretty little princess of Monaco stumbling out of a Greek nightclub with an unknown boy is definitely making the papers.
The family rushes back to the palace in crisis mode to prevent the pr disaster and Lewis finally learns that his best friend is actually a princess. He's a bit hurt that she lied to him for so long, but when she tells him that she just wanted to be normal he forgives her. It does also explain quite a lot of the weird things she's said over the years. Lewis also meets Nico's little cousin Charles who is very sweet.
Lewis and Nico stay best friends throughout the years. She goes off to university, and he's making his way through the junior formula series but they always make time for each other. When he makes it in F1 she goes to as many races as possible. He doesn't win Monaco his first year, but she gives him a kiss on the cheek instead of Fernando, and it brings him luck throughout the year. Lewis is very protective of Nico as her flirting with Jenson becomes more serious, and more than once he warns Jenson of what he will do if Jenson hurts her.
Oh plss!
Lil 5 year old Nico begging her papa to race and her mum is unsure about how they will do it safely without anyone recognising them but Keke will happily shave his moustache because he is excited his little girl wants to share that with him! (And then he would wear a fake moustache outside of the racing lmao)
Lewis not having many friends in karting until this tiny blonde girl shows up and shares her candy with him while talking about the karting race ans she is so nice to him! Also Keke is kind to Lewis and even helps mend his kart after it breaks down.
Lewis and Nico emailing and always hanging out at races until Nico invites Lewis to come visit her when he is close to Monaco. They don't go to the Palace but to the apartment the family own too (Nico prefers it over the cold palace, ans maybe her parents divorced so papa lives there with her now)
Lewis gets to do all kinds of cool stuff eith Nico and he alwsys just assumes it's cos Nico is rich, has no clue for years until they get photographed outside a club and Nico panics so much!
They get whisked off to have the pr team talk to them about strategy and Lewis learns his best friend is the princess of Monaco... he would be so confused and a little hurt but Nico is still his best friend and he understands why she hid it!
Lewis also meeting little Charles who is Nico's shadow and comes ro snuggle her seeing Nico is upset! Cuties!
Nico qnd Lewis continuing to be friends as Lewis climbs his way up in motorsport and Nico goes to university, and Lewis is so happy to have her come along to races once he makes it to f1! He knows there is rumours about them dating, but Nico is like a sister to him!
And pls sksk Nico kissing Lewis's cheek instead of Fernando's (she does eventually give in and kisses his cheek too lol) and it brings him good luck!
Lesis being wary of jenson flirting with nico cos he is such a playboy, but he csn see Jenson is different around the princess, so kind and calm and so clearly in love!

Love the tragic irony of peppino having used to keep his hair long ngl...... Btw do you think he used to have some different hobbies back then? :O
(good luck w that comm btw-)
I dont think its tragic! His hair STILL comes down to his shoulder; he just doesnt have any annoying hair in his face that would make him want to make a ponytail. I think when u start balding u either panic or make ur peace and i think he was too worried about Other Things to care about it lol
As for hobbies, he has a Couple that i thought were cute and fitting.
Despite the anxiety, he is a bit of an entertainer. He can do magic tricks! Not very flashy ones but he knows alot of card and sleight of hand tricks; it is fun to see people stare in disbelief, and its a good way to keep his hands busy. The Autism prevents him from withholding Magic Secrets; if anyone asks him how he did it he will be very happy to share it. It helps that tricks are STILL hard to perform, even if u have the Knowledge of how it works.
He doesnt consider himself an artist but he can do caricatures 😊 I am very attached to my hc that he drew the little storefront logo for his own shop. Partly bc it would be easy for him to draw; mostly bc he did not want to waste money to get someone ELSE to do it if he could just do it his damn self. You will not catch him drawing or sketching anymore, even post game when hes doing better overall. But like most things, u can press him into showing off a little bit if u say the right words.
I hesitate to call it a hobby, but he will go jogging almost Daily. Well. When he was younger he jogged daily but nowadays he will at the very least Walk daily. He does it really early in the morning before he opens up shop, or in the evening if the weather permits. He doesnt like the rigidness of ‘working out’ though, and will avoid it like the plague; he is a little baby (princess) and does not want to get achey muscles and he does Not want to sweat at all its the worst. Post game, he will have random peeps join him for walks. He does not ask for this but it is not the WORST thing in the world to have some company :)
#answered#chattin#peppino#i have a bunch of other ones but wehhh#this will be an essay#which is what im trying to avoid now hdjdbdksk#he can bake as well he is just very good w foods overall#but when he got older and more stressed it accidentally turned into him stressbaking#he used to give it away to neighbors (bc the thought of throwing out food makes him ILL)#but now he gives it to noisette and gus bc they are literally black holes#they will simply eat anything and everything#also i think he can play on a concertina but only bc like#his uncle or grandpa taught him when he was younger to like#Expand His Brain or some shit; u know- teach them when theyre young bc theyre so receptive to new things#and THIS is bc i think it would be cute if he made a tiny peshino prototype for like marketing reasons#and he based it off of him being Just Okay with the instrument#and the tinkering is bc i think him being a BROKE BITCH meant that he was unable to literally call for repairs around his shop (and home…)#so he just took it upon himself to learn how to do basic repair stuff#and like#keeping his hands busy#tinkering to make a little windup toy seemed to make sense from there bfjdndkdndk#hes got lots of very minor talents and skills but they add up to give u a man that has approximate knowledge of many things#and he keeps it all to himself bc hes a loner :)#OMG how did i almost forget; thank u; i am still lining this comm#its not even BAD i am just. uninspired#i like draw big dudes buff OR fat and i am drawing Some Guy#so ive been dragging my feet through the mud gettin it done#but on god im finishing this lines tonight

high school tips for freshmen? 💕 I love your page btw it's so inspiring
highschool tips for freshmen ✏️🗒️
aww thank you so much 💗
freshman year was my favorite year! i miss it.
when you’re in highschool try to make the best of everything. i know some people dread school but it’s precious time that you won’t get back so make the most of it.
join clubs or sports teams. do as much as you can without it interfering with your school work. being active is so important and can be beneficial later on in life and in college. i was a cheerleader my whole life and it was so fun. i wanted to join track team but it clashed with my cheering schedule so i had to choose. i would suggest trying out for anything you’re interested in. it’s a good way to make friends, stay in shape and good for your mental health to be active.
be social. if you’re shy try to break out of that. you can meet so many nice and creative people if you open yourself up to conversations. don’t be afraid to speak to people first. it can also come in handy to make friends in class so you have someone to sit with at lunch. also don’t be afraid to speak to upperclassmen. they can help you with things, mentor you, show you around etc. when i was a freshman i had friends who were sophomores, juniors and seniors. it happened organically because of my bubbly personality and me being a cheerleader, i met so many people.
decorate your locker. it’s always fun to personalize your things. it shows your personality and allows you to be creative.
watch out for bullies. some people feel like being a freshman means that your quiet, easily persuaded and afraid. make sure you speak up if you ever feel like someone is picking on you. tell a teacher or your parent. don’t let anyone intimidate you or make you do something you don’t want to do. hold your head up high and be your own person.
have fun. don’t think of school as only work work work. as long as you do your work and study for your tests you can have a good time there too. socializing and making friends is a part of school. joining clubs as i said before or a sports team etc is so fun. find some friends to hang out with at lunch. be outgoing.
manage your time well for studying and activities. make sure you don’t procrastinate and leave things until the last minute. i suggest having a planner and planning out your week, every week. you don’t want to be behind on anything. make time for studying, write down when you have a quiz or a test. get the work out of the way so you can do other fun things.
attend school dances. these are some of my favorite memories school. it’s so fun to dress up, do your hair and makeup, take pictures, eat, hang with friends etc
be organized. in highschool you’ll have more test, projects, assignments and social activities so have a planner. make time for studying, work and things you want to do
on your free time explore the school so you know where everything is and find faster routes to your classes to avoid being late
stay true to yourself. don’t try to be something you’re not just to fit in. you will find your own crowd by being yourself
build healthy relationships with your teachers. being able to go to them when you need help is important.
prioritize your mental health. make sure you are okay. physically, mentally and emotionally. check in with yourself. keep a journal to write down how you feel. make sure your not overwhelmed with anything and if you are tell a guardian or your teacher so they can help you organize better or sort of out feelings
i hope this helps. remember .. have fun, be yourself and make great memories !
sending positives energy and good luck, please accept 🤍

Hello again, I'm here to request once more. Feel free to take all the time you need btw! I would always be patient for your wonderful works ^^
This time I'd like to request from the Drabble List#2 - 47 with the 020607 Trio (mainly Mahiru though). And yes, this is hugely inspired by that one minigram with Mahiru. And as usual, feel free to change the scenario and/or the characters.
Thank you again, good luck with your future studies and take all the time you need!!
Woo thank you so much!! :'D This one was a ton of fun (and once again led me to get smacked in the face with unlikely character parallels I wasn't aware of before). It's from Kazui's pov but it's still mainly about Mahiru. I ended up going canon-compliant, but I did consider sticking super close to the minigram and do a little normal-au where Mahiru drags them across Japan to make a perfectly homemade cake 😅
Everyone knew Mahiru had a tough time distinguishing genuine from joke, but Kazui hadn’t expected it to come back to bite him. Mahiru wasn’t stupid by any means; sometimes she just forgot that others weren’t as unabashedly honest as herself. When she said something, she meant it. Kazui… not so much.
Which is why, following a conversation about her skills in the kitchen, in response to being pressed about his own household, he thought it would be inconsequential to utter the following words to her.
“Bake me a cake, and we’ll talk.” 
Kazui had laughed his booming laugh, Mahiru had giggled in her sweet little way. Neither realized what had just transpired.
That is, until Yuno dragged Kazui across the prison the following day to make him aware of the monster he had released upon the kitchens. The two hurried over to find a massive operation underway: Mahiru had several layers in the works, she was stirring multiple fruit fillings, decoration choices scattered across the countertop, and anyone who dared venture too close was shooed away with a slap from her wooden spoon. 
It took a few minutes to get the situation all worked out.
“So… you didn’t really want a cake…?” She asked, pausing mid-stir. Her eyes were so big and round.
Yuno came to the rescue. “Of course he does!” She interrupted. “Everyone here would die for a taste of your baking~” 
Kazui nodded. “I just didn’t mean for you to work so hard for my sake. I’m really not worth all this effort…”
Mahiru’s jaw fell, offended on his behalf. “Yes you are!” Her attention was momentarily caught by a timer chiming. Kazui took the bowl from her so she could take a pan from the oven. He picked up where she left off stirring. 
“Either way, why don’t I help you out?” Yuno had grabbed some ingredients from the counter as well. “While we bake, I’ll tell you a little bit about myself. A little,” he repeated. 
And he did. Her questions were easier than he’d expected. While the others knew how to poke and prod about each other’s murders, Mahiru really did just want to know about his home life. While she buzzed around the kitchen switching pans and creating intricate icing patterns, she asked him about his childhood, his hobbies, his job. As soon as she saw his wife was a touchy subject, she let it drop (though with a bit of disappointment, to be sure). He scrambled a bit as Yuno the human lie detector would shoot him a look now and then. Overall, though, his measured answers managed to satisfy both women without giving much of himself away.
When they carried the spectacular cake into the common room to everyone’s amazement, Mahiru prodded him with her elbow.
“We should talk more! I mean, come on. How difficult was that?”
If only she knew the half of it.
———
“Hey, Mahiru.” Kazui traded weak smiles with Yuno as he joined her by the bed.
“Oh. Hi Kazui,” came her weak voice. She tried her best to smile under the tangle of bandages that surrounded her. Then, silence. 
Aside from a few coughs and small requests, that silence stretched on for hours. He and Yuno usually had a lot to talk about, but neither could muster anything up today.
He thought Mahiru had dozed off, but she surprised him by taking his hand. “Kazui?”
“Yes?”
“Do you really think I’m unforgivable?” 
He blinked. “I can’t really say.” 
The moment the words left his lips, he knew they were the wrong ones. Well, the glare that Yuno was trying to murder him with also helped. “Er, I forgive you, of course. But… I don’t know anything about you, Mahiru. Not really. I can’t say why others would think you’re unforgivable or not.” 
“...I see.”
Yuno looked like she wanted to add something, but couldn’t find the words. Traces of emotions flickered over her face before she could cover them up. Kazui guessed she wanted to defend Mahiru. But maybe she also agreed with him. And that was when the realization struck him.
“I guess, I always thought you were so much better than me and Yuno when it came to talking about yourself. You do it all the time, and very easily. But now that I think about it, I probably know just as much about your situation as you know about mine. For such an honest person, you hide everything just like we do. Or maybe, you hide from everything, like we do.”
More silence.
A teary smile appeared on her face. “You know… you could bake me a cake… and maybe we’ll talk.”
Kazui didn’t laugh, and she didn’t giggle. He nodded, solemnly. “I think that’s a good idea.”

"Let's see, then it'll be one meat sandwich, large fries to share, two grape sodas and...um... I'm sorry, could you repeat your order please?"

Joining @twst-the-night-away fan event Disorder up! because it sounded fun and I can't say no to 50s cafe themes, also with this I had an excuse to draw my main yuusona on twst style hehe. Edit: Their name is Kooky now❗
Card resources made by @alchemivich. I apologise if there's any mistakes with the Japanese name, I used Google translator so if anyone knows Japanese it could help me to know the correct translation. Noko's voicelines below (The first sentence above would be the summon line btw) ↓↓↓
Groooovy!!: It's seven thaumarks in total...is that right though?...hmm, wait, let me check it out again just in case.
Home: How did I end up in this? Well, let's just say I was in the wrong place at the wrong time...and I can't let the chance of being rewarded somehow pass.
Home Idle 1: The Old Sage has a very colorful retro aesthetic that reminds me of cafes from the 50s-70s of my world. I like it.
Home Idle 2: Malmal would surely enjoy coming to places like this with pals. Unfortunately, I believe the waiters would be intimidated by him, F.
Home Idle 3: Sometimes I have thought about applying for a job at the Mostro Lounge, but working for Azul would mean being in his debt and I'd prefer to avoid that.
Home Idle - Login: Hi! welcome to The Old Sage. What it'll be today?
Home Idle - Groovy: One advantage of serving here is that they let us take away leftovers. Good thing Grim likes to eat anything.
Home Tap 1: Cay-cay usually takes me to cafe "dates", he gets cammable pics and I eat all the sweets he asks for. Win-win for both of us amirite?
Home Tap 2: In my world there's this tale about a waitress who didn't prioritised romance and dreamed of having her own business instead; in the end she had her own restaurant and got married. I wish I was as hardworking as her, or at least have that luck in love too.
Home Tap 3: Making a good balance between employment, studies and free time is difficult. If my grades were already bad enough without working now I think they are going to be lower...
Home Tap 4: My mom worked in hospitality so I already had an idea of what it's like. Anyway, I ain't planning on being a waitress longterm so I think she and I agree on that.
Home Tap 5: Working while wearing a dress can be problematic if you fall or the wind picks it up. That's why I wear shorts underneath whenever I wear skirts and dresses.
Home Tap - Groovy: With my goldfish memory and clumsiness level I sure think I'm not fit for this role, but the uniform and tips are far better than working as a janitor IMO.

Ahh so, lately, I've been slowly (emphasis on slowly) working through another animatic.... so while I'm doing that I thought it'd be fun to share some thought processes i had while making Juliet (which you can watch above)!! I'm obviously not gonna analyze all of it, as a lot of the lyric matches and like, color meanings, for example, you can understand just fine on your own, but some stuff maybe might not be as obvious? So yeah, this is just gonna be me inanely rambling, in case anyone is in the market for thinking too deep into symbolism and character analysis hdgdhd
0:07
Starting off with the intro, the big flowers here are hydrangeas :) I intentionally tried to pick a color between blue, pink and purple, as the meanings for all three apply here. Blue hydrangeas symbolize understanding and gratefulness, and remorse and apology, sort of as 'I understand where I went wrong, and I'm sorry for not treating you fairly". I think this would fit well with Shigeo's feelings towards Ritsu,, pink, however, symbolizes heartfelt emotion, romance, and true feelings, which I thought was great for the Tsubomi side of things, especially in regards to the last arc. And purple symbolizes understanding, and gratefulness, without as much of the negative connotations. Sort of like a positive inverse of the blue ones' symbolism - a 'thank you for sticking with me'. Which is relevant for all the platonic relationships in his life, all the friendships, and, well... as I see it, also his relationship with himself - between Mob and ???% :')
Also I think the other flowers were lilacs, but. Tbh, i don't remember anymore.. their symbolism wasn't as relevant in my mind i think hdhfg (though i'm sure you could still extrapolate something from them if you really wanted to (which, in my country, they're often associated with students and graduation, so like, learning and new begginings/endings.... also i carry many memories of trying to find 3 leaved buds in them, for good luck, so take from that what you will ig! ^^;))
***
0:15
Here, I intended to use a dark red outline as to not make it immediately clear that Shigeo was dripping blood. As when you hear the lyrics "I need to cry," one would immediately picture tears, right? I'm not sure if I succeeded (especially with the blood tw right before), but that was the idea. Along with how then, of course, the lyrics continue with "but I can't get anything out of my eyes," and the gruesome scene reveal, making it clear it's not tears at all... yeah. Also, I just want to mention the lyrics "did I die?" because they make me emo. In a way, a part of Shigeo, the old Shigeo, did die that day....
***
0:46
not as much to say here, though I definitely drew this with the feeling of stagnation in my mind... like. Mob is growing physically, yes. But emotionally? He's festering, and only growing more, and more, stuck.... notice how the color dims. Blue is a sad color. But at least it is a color at all.
***
1:14
Oh boy, lots.... of things to say here. Or, well  maybe not say. Idk how to explain the symbolism in this one? It was more subconscious... Something about Mob trying to reach out and understand himself, only to get distracted by Tsubomi, and set his eyes on her instead. And ???%, in the mirror, turning to him judgementally... I think it's reflective of how Tsubomi also was part of the reason for the split, and how, in his yearning for Tsubomi, what he was seeking after the most was acceptance, even if he couldn't see it.... something along those lines <3
(Also, god it bothers me that i messed up the lighting in his reflection's hair hghdgd,, might fix that someday)
***
1:56
"With two corks in his eyes", the two corks in this case being a dumbbell, and a book on social cues (which, btw, he canonically has).... I wanted to portray the things that he finds lacking in himself, and thus makes into roadblocks towards his path of self acceptance. Thinking of that line said by ???% about how, in his effort to join and train with the body improvement club, he was really just 'trying to make a new self', and wasn't really 'seeing' ???%. Trying to escape himself, the part of him with powers... and then s1 ep3, and how in it, Mob implied that he and his autism (dunno how else to put everything about that djghfh, it was just.. autism) are destructive... Yeah.
***
2:00
"and a bully in his head"
Just want to note... obviously, the lyrics imply that ???% is the bully here. But, if you pay attention, ???% here actually looks rather.. anguished. And Mob looks almost angry... just thought I'd make it clear the situation is a little more gray than that! :)
***
2:19
While drawing for this part, I couldn't stop thinking about this one analysis in youtube comments I had seen about how s2 ep1 was crucial in Mob taking that first, real step towards opening up emotionally, and how in the process, he's exposed to a much wider world morally as well. That's why I put the ghost family scene directly after the scene with Emi - he's beggining to consider his emotions, all the 'colors' he hasn't allowed himself to see, and that leads to him realizing his own autonomy, which leads to him considering his decisions more, which leads to the ghost family scene, where he's starting to consider the autonomy of spirits as well, instead of blindly following Reigen on these matters (who, as we know, doesn't know shit about that side of the world, and I would say... kinda allowed Mob to separate himself from his psychic side even more, with him mindlessly using his powers as a tool for work and nothing else). "I wanna be so much more."
I... actually have a lot of feelings, on Mob and his relationship with spirits and how that intertwines with his powers, but that's something to write it's own post about, not ramble about here, so I'll leave it at that i think jfgfh
***
2:33
The relevancy of the lyrics very much stretch on into the instrumental for this one.. "I hope that she looks at me and thinks, "shit, he's so pretty." Something I can't believe," And then him flashing to blood on his hands, and a sequence of moments he's probably felt not so proud of,,, just wanted to note that in case it wasn't obvious. Also, I have feelings about hand symbolism in this show, too, especially when it comes to moments where Shigeo has looked at his open palm, but that's also a post for another day just as in the previous point jdgdhh (in short: all of those moments can be traced back to how he views the power he posseses)
***
3:46
The two corks, in this case, are the spirit world, and the human world ^^ also notice how one of the figures among the spirits wears Mob's uniform... is that lord psycho helmet, or ???%...?? idk!!! You decide :)
Also the "bully in his head", this time, becomes not ???%, but the trauma of the incident... just wanted to bring that back to front and focus before the final chorus. Cause,, that really was the even that kickstarted it all, huh?
***
4:00
Not an analysis, just wanted to say, I greatly enjoy the juxtaposition of "but i'm really just a kid," laid over top Shigeo bleeding on the ground. Mmmhmmm,,,, pain.
***
4:11
I knowww I said I wasn't gonna be talking about the color meanings, but I just had to for this one. Obviously, I portrayed ???% menacing here, as they are menacing in this arc, but... notice how their aura is rather pink? I had finished this before the finale aired, so I didn't know it would be red in canon, but even knowing that, I would have returned to this. Because, with the pink... well, red does fit them better overall I would say, but in this case, I wanted to take the obvious choice, the color that is so commonly associated with danger, and... shift it to left a bit, make it a little softer. To emphasize the affection ???% holds for Tsubomi, the protectiveness they hold over Mob, the gentle side they show to Ritsu. And to bring us into their point of view even more, the red is instead relegated to the edges of the frame... a creeping vignete, that represents how they view the world around them is the dangerous part in all this. ..I hope all of that makes sense ;^^
***
4:07 and 4:22
Anddd the two corks become the seperation between Mob and ???%, and Ritsu and Tsubomi... those really were the focal points in this animatic, the building blocks for who Shigeo is, as I see it.. and how reconciling with both Ritsu and Tsubomi, leads to him being able to reconcile with himself, too. Of course, there is Reigen as well... but I just wanted to focus on these 3 for this one. Also, I just wanna say that the panel of Ritsu, Shigeo and Tsubomi holding hands in the air is one of my fave panels ever and I loved being able to depict it.. it just makes me feel things. The yearning for childhood, and connections, and the feeling of being whole again of it all,,,, augh
***
And. To end this sleep deprived ramble....
Notice how the animatic became more colorful over time? :)
Of course, part of that is just that I improved my style along the way, but... it was also very much intentional. A sort of reflection of Shigeo's journey, and how he rediscovered those colors along the way. Also was very much intentional from me for the final 2 frames to be the only ones where Shigeo's colors are actually accurate instead of just being symbolic - and that was to symbolize that,,, he was finally grounding himself in reality, and seeing himself for the whole, real person he truly is :')
The flower imagery wasn't as planned however, I decided on it as to make it match the intro that I made later and thus for it to come full circle, and I think it ended up adding to it!! Think of it meaning something along the lines of,,, just as in happiness, so in sadness, the flowers bloom. Or something like that.. idk jhgjdhgh
So yeah!!! Dunno who even read this far, but if anyone did, thank you for listening to my brainrot, I hope it was relatively interesting!! aanndd with that im also going to sleep, buh byeee u_u have good days/nights everyones <3

Something Kris-centric, idk, something fluffy about the holiday they're on or something? Sorry it's kinda vague
Btw I'm sure you'll do great, good luck:)
you got it! something fluffy about the boys trying (and failing) to help Kris relax. gen, no pairing, just a silly holiday thing. thank you ❤️
Thailand is beautiful. Kris knows this — he has, after all, been one of the first to suggest it as their destination. He has been here before, they all have. And it's been good, really good if he's being honest. There's just this one thing that has been forming in this mind the day they got here — the guys are up to something.
It starts pretty much innocuously. It's their first evening and they're all at the pool doing what can be called lounging. That is, holding their feet into the cool water, catching the sunset and sipping on drinks. (Longeros, huh, Jan? Bojan would probably tease if he were here. Which he isn't. But that's a story for another time.)
Kris himself is lying on a deck chair, phone in hand, with his head finally empty. Trying to catch the perfect shot of when the setting sun hits the water, he nearly doesn't notice when Jure comes up to him, his bare feet nearly noiseless on the lush grass beneath them. 
What he does hear, however, is the “Kris!” that is half-whispered and half-shouted into his ear. Startled, he nearly drops his phone and wheels around to stare directly into Jure's grinning face. 
“Can you maybe, like, not do that?”
“Sorry.” Jure shrugs and really doesn't look sorry at all. “I was just wondering if you wanted something to drink? Mark is trying to make those new cocktails and he was asking around if anyone wants to try them.”
Kris raises one of his eyebrows. “And you don't want to?” 
“Ah, my beer is still mostly full and Jan and Nace are trying to do something with the pineapples they got from the market. I'm not actually sure if they want to eat them, right now it looks more like they're playing some sort of game where they're trying to hit it with a stick or something?” 
What the fuck, Kris's mind helpfully supplies and he turns around to witness how Jan masterfully manages to decapitate the poor pineapple with one hit of — oh my god, is that a knife tied to a tree branch!? Nace behind him is only nodding appreciatively, one hand on his shoulder like some kind of teacher. 
Kris decides that he will not think of the dangers this could pose to any of their limbs because he's on holiday and Mama-Krisko also needs her break, thank you very much. 
“Anyway,” Jure continues, not bothered at all. “I didn't want to interrupt whatever they're doing, so. Drinks?” 
And yeah, Kris does, actually, want one. (To be honest, there's no one else whom he'd trust more with the drinks than Mark whose eye for photography miraculously also translates to an eye for measuring ingredients. Well, he'd probably trust Nace, too. But not right now.)
“Sure,” he shrugs, yawning. “I'll just wait until the sunset is over —” 
“No worries,” Jure interrupts, smiling. “I'll get it for you.”
And, huh. Kris's narrowed eyes follow him as he makes his way back towards the bar. Because it's not that Jure isn't usually helpful when it comes to these kinds of things except — well, he isn't. His clumsy nature usually leads him to spill more drinks than actually drink out of them and normally they've developed a kind of routine that prevents Jure from carrying any sort of glasses filled with liquid. 
This time, however, everything seems to work out fine. Without any problems Jure returns to him with a perfectly nice longdrink in his hand. It's even decorated with a little umbrella and a cut pineapple piece next to it (Kris dimly hopes that this one wasn't a victim of Jan and Nace's shenanigans.)
He thanks Jure who salutes him before bouncing off to join Mark behind the bar. Sipping on his drink, he turns his attention back to the sunset and realises that he has missed the golden moment of the sun hitting the water — but then again, he thinks, enjoying the cool taste of alcohol on his tongue and the warm air around him, he could get used to this. There surely will be other opportunities in the future. 
*
The other thing happens the next day when they're choosing a movie to watch for the evening. They all want to watch something different, all in varying moods, indecisively scrolling through various streaming platforms. 
“We should watch Footloose,” Kris suggests jokingly, knowing very well that Jan would rather watch anything else than something like Footloose. (Kris, however, enjoys the silliness of it. When you're living a life such as this one, hectic and stressful and sometimes just overwhelming, you learn to enjoy movies with ridiculous premises such as this one.)
Jan, however, only gives him a mild look.
“Sure,” he agrees, shrugging. “Why not.”
Wait, what. 
Kris blinks at him. When Jan doesn't say anything, only moving to make room for Kris on the couch, he doesn't question it, wordlessly starting the film. 
Later, when the movie is finished and Kris suggests heading to bed early so that they can maybe take a day trip tomorrow, they all nod without any opposition. Kris only looks after them in confusion as they head off to their respective rooms because it's never as easy as that. 
Yeah. Something is definitely wrong.
*
“Okay,” he starts the next morning during breakfast. “Something's not right and I need to know what.”
Three pairs of eyes stare at him in confusion. Kris tuts once, placing one of his hands on his table while first pointing to Jure. 
“You usually avoid bringing me things that can break easily like the plague. And now you've been bringing me drinks for two days — and managed to not drop even one of them. What's up with that?” 
Jure only stares at him, clearly not knowing what to say.  
“And you,” he turns to Jan and Nace, “have been eerily agreeable whenever I said something. Like, I'm not surprised about Nace because he's the only one with any kind of sense here but Jan? You didn't even complain when I forced you to watch Footloose. And you hate cheesy romances like that.”
They all stay silent. The cogs in Kris's head keep turning until — 
He pales.
“Oh my god, has something happened back home? Is that your way of easing me in before delivering the information?” 
For one hysterical moment he thinks that the only news that could be so bad that they needed to distract him from it is that they need to reschedule all the upcoming tour dates because god forbid something has happened to Bojan, or any other of their crew members for that matter, or there's been a problem with some venue —
Nace puts his hands on his shoulder, eyes wide with concern. “Everything's fine, stop spiralling.”
Kris exhales once, focusing on Nace's grounding touch. 
“We just —” Nace hesitates. Jan shoots him an encouraging look. “We just wanted to — do something good for you.”
What. 
Kris raises his eyebrows critically. “You what?” 
“Yeah.” Jan nods, emphasising Nace's words. “Because of, y'know. The past few weeks.”
“Because of all the stuff you had to do,” Jure supplies, slinging an arm around his shoulder. “Like, Finland with Bojan and Jere wasn't easy and then Stožice, and you've been doing so much — so we wanted to, uh. Help you relax.”
“Ah.” Kris blinks at them, head suddenly empty. “You wanted to help me relax. By bringing me drinks? And — agreeing with me?” 
All three of them shrug. 
“Did it help?” Jure asks, curious.
And Kris considers this because he actually has enjoyed the last few days. The drinks and the attentiveness and the feeling that people are listening to him. But then again, there's just been this wrongness in the air, too, because as much as Kris likes it when people listen to him, he also likes it when people argue with him and speak their mind and — hm. 
“Kinda?” He decides eventually. “But I had this inkling that — something was wrong. Because — huh.” He hesitates. “I liked it but I didn't like that it felt that you were deliberately trying to — to do something. Like, something you normally wouldn't do.”
He sighs, closing his eyes. 
“Can't you just be — normal.”
When he opens his eyes again, Nace is looking at him with an affectionate look in his eyes. 
“Sure.”
Jan next to him nods. 
“You got it, Krisko.” Jure leans in closer, squeezing his shoulders. “You know that we love you, right?” 
“Yeah,” he says, fondly looking at all of them. “I love you, too.”

I just voted on your strollonso fic poll and I had to let you know I SCREAMED when I saw the arranged marriage AU because a couple weeks ago, in an unexpected hit of strollonso-related horniness and fic inspiration (haven’t written any fic in MONTHS) I had a very similar thought process, but it involved Fernando setting himself up with Lawrence’s son to join their houses so his kingdom doesn’t end up without an heir. It’s not EXACTLY the same premise but it just made me so excited to see that you had a similar idea as me (I’m a sucker for fantasy/medieval AUs). Good luck with your fic, whichever AU you decide to write in the end! ❤️
Lance 🤝 Fernando being simply perfect for arranged marriage AU.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment dear!!! Great (horny) minds think alike and I'm so happy you see the vision. I've already written about half and I'm so excited to share it with all you lovely people.
But ya'll have to stop hyping me up like this, you are going to receive a deeply mid fic but made with love 🥲🥰
btw if anyone wants a sneak peek, or discuss ideas just DM me. ;)

What exactly spawned frostfurs hatred of the firesibs and co™? -frost hater anon
short answer: conspiracy theories
long answer: she used to love them! but she also loved gossip, and she had no qualms gossiping about the cats she loved. and Spottedleaf? oh, her romance drama was a pool of gossip waiting to happen. so of course Frostfur bought into and joined her mother Robinwing and Speckletail and Smallear in their circle of "did you hear? did you see? did you know?" Frostfur would tell her friends Spottedleaf and Willowpelt it was "just gossip" but just gossip hurts. Spotted and Willow began to feel uncomfortable around her and removed her from their kits' lives. the Firesibs were already starting to feel like Frostfur thought they were "strange," and didn't like being around her that much either. but she was still nice to them.
at first it was just that the gossip created a divide between them --- Frostfur still liked them, and some of the sibs even liked/tolerated her. but the gossip started getting more... outlandish. Frostfur stopped hanging out with her 'pawhood friends as much because the older gossipers didn't and she followed their lead, and, on the flip side, Spottedleaf, Willowpelt, Whitestorm, etc. stopped hanging out with her because she made them uncomfortable. Speckletail's mentorship of Lightningpaw, and how they didn't get along and Lightningpaw was rebellious, started to add fuel to the fire to the "Firesibs aren't good for this clan."
Chapter 29 is when Frostfur first mentions that "It’s almost like that family’s cursed." It's only partly malicious. She was starting a speculative rumor that Patchpelt got with his sister Willowpelt (which is false btw), because he was a "womanizer" and the others dismissed her theory of Willowpelt's mate being a ShadowClan tom (which was the truth, and she was kind of mad/petty that they refused to believe her). She is specifically talking about Spottedleaf and her siblings when she talks about the curse in this scenario, citing their poor romance lives as reasons for being "cursed." She doesn't mean they are seriously cursed, just that they have bad luck/bad blood. But it's that one little idea that slowly starts to form and stick like a burr. She mentions the idea of a "curse" more frequently, beginning to say that the Firesibs have bad luck (aka a curse) because their mom is a medicine cat and that broke the code.
Believe it or not, Airpaw/leap is the one who starts buying into and perpetuating this idea of being cursed. Obviously, Frostfur is his third mentor, and she's not the kindest to him, and, while we never see what she says to him specifically, it's clear she got in his head with the possible things pertaining to "a curse." He's genuinely the first cat who believes he's cursed. Even at this point, it's more just a word than a reality to Frostfur and the others.
It's not until Copperleaf and Clawface steal Frostfur's kits that she begins taking the curse seriously, and that StarClan specifically sought to curse their family. She's looking for someone to blame, and, I mean, Copperleaf's right there and he's Spottedleaf's kit, and it all just makes sense! "StarClan has cursed your family and anyone close to them will suffer!” She's saying she was close to them in this sentence - that because she let herself be close to that family, her kits were stolen.
It's from this point onward that Frostfur is outwardly hostile and aggressive with the Firefam. She doesn't want any of them touching her family, and she wants her family and friends separate from theirs. She genuinely starts to believe that the Firefam is cursed, and that the Firefam has bad intentions for ThunderClan. But, even then, she can still manage to be courteous to them. Of course, as time goes on, and more 'bad' things happen to her family --- Lionheart's death prior, Brindleface's kits getting sick, Cinderpelt's accident, etc. --- the idea of a curse only festers and turns her into a cruel being.
But even at her rudest, there was a sliver of kindness in her that respected that they were clanmates (hence why she never attacked them prior) and that perhaps they meant to be good cats and they were only cursed to do evil. She thought it would just be best if they stayed on their side of ThunderClan, and her group (Speckletail, Brindleface, some of the elders, some of the apprentices, etc.) stayed on their side. Ideally, the "cursed" would be kicked out, but unfortunately, Bluestar just wouldn't listen to her.
But Brightpaw's injury was the last straw, and all hell broke loose. She no longer cares about maintaining a curtness with that wretched family. They destroyed her entire family as far as she can see. Brindleface, Ravenwing, Cherryfur, Elderpaw, Fernpaw, Brackenfur, Cinderpelt --- they all choose the cursed family and met horrible fates for it (or in her eyes, they did). Brightpaw and Thornpaw were victims in it, and she never should have trusted Tulippaw because his father was Whitestorm. Even her friends --- Speckletail, Goldenflower --- began to distance from her and leave her alone.
She doesn't care about drama and gossip anymore. She cares about doing what StarClan clearly wanted and chasing out the fifthly cursed. She doesn't care about a code anymore. She'd kill if she knew how to be a killer.
Good thing she doesn't.

Blade ( Honkai star rail )
request from : @veyalexsa (i don't know why i can't tag the person)
people was shocked when they found out you're married to yingxing, or now known as blade.
neither one of them expected you're married to him.
because from their point of view you guys are really different?
even kafka and other stellaron hunters are shocked when they hear about this, sure. they noticed you wearing a ring on your ring finger but they've never seen blade wearing one, so when silver wolf asked about your ring she was shock that you're married to blade.
because you didn't join the stellaron hunter at the same time as him, you joined a few months after him.
one day, you're talking to kafka after being in a mission with blade.
"so.. you've been with him for so long, how do you feel meeting him after he changed?" she ask you
"a bit shocking? because I didn't expect to see him here, after all we lost contact after some accident. because even when i was married to him back then we more like work partner? i mean we just get married because of a coincidence? how should i say this.. we have a win-win relationship, i need to get away from my relatives who just want my inheritance and he need a healer. back then when i healed him he would be cooperative and calm then after that he thank me. but right now i have to chase him like tom and jerry just to heal him, i remember one time when is health is almost red he says "When will death come for me? My patience is wearing thin." and i suddenly healed him and he sigh in frustration and looked like he wanted to eat me alive but he couldn't do it. well i don't blame him because if i had to go through what he had gone through i would probably end up worse than him," you replied
"i admit he sounds strong, but i think you're stronger, well if we looked at the fact you're also getting mara-struck but you can keep yourself from being controlled by it was interesting.." she says
"you can see it? i thought i can fool anyone but i think i couldn't fool you" you replied
"you're strong, my dear. if you ever need help controlling it just come to me, I'll gladly help you" she says
"my top priority is now him, and me getting mara-struck is something i wish he never finds out, i just want him to focus on his revenge. because back then i wasn't good enough to save him that he ended up like this, thanks kafka. and i really appreciate it if you would hide this, because i wanted to be the one to tell him" you replied
"you want to save someone who's dying even tho you're dying yourself? good luck then" she left after saying that leaving you alone staring at the night sky.
(btw the place is where kafka and silver wolf talked when silfer wolf account got closed down by herta)
"you hear that right? are you satisfied that your concern turn out to be true?" kafka was talking to blade who heard everything.
"just as i expected.." blade mumbles
"i already helped you with this, you have to make your decision by your own" she said and left blade alone with his thoughts
"you never changed. you're still the same. a self-reckless person who always care about other and keep everything to yourself.." he left so that you wouldn't find out he heard everything.

Btw don't do that... idc if I made a joke about it
Tumblr media
it would be incredibly rude for her to be bothered by my silly little self because of something so mundane
