# being gojo satoru’s therapist.
word count: 2.5k-ish
some angst (suicide is mentioned very briefly), no use of y/n, cursing, female!reader, idiots unknowingly pining for each other, emotionally constipated gojo
Tumblr media
it was so fucking stupid, he didn’t need any of this. he’s the strongest sorcerer of the modern era for god’s sake.
why on earth was he being forced to see a goddamn therapist?
upon yaga’s request- well, demand actually, he was required to see a shrink because, as the principal worded it, he needed ‘a lot of fucking help’.
of course, he refused at first.
thee satoru gojo in a shrink’s office? what was that, some twisted fucking joke?
sadly for him though, yaga decided to put his foot down and he wasn’t taking no for an answer. he threatened the snowy haired man to take away his teaching job if he didn’t get the help he apparently desperately needed.
so it began, satoru gojo’s journey with his therapist.
over the course of a couple of months, satoru had grown accustomed to his routine with his therapist.
he met up with her in her cozy little office, she tried to make the conversation about his feelings and he’d redirect it to something else entirely, mainly complaining about higher ups in his field.
that always earned him a look, but she never forced him to share his inner monologues with her.
she couldn’t do that even if she wanted to anyways, he wouldn’t let her.
all of this led to an unlikely.. friendship?
well, satoru wouldn’t exactly call it a friendship, but it was.. something.
that day, was no different than their usual meetings.
a tall and lean figure made its way into her office and sat on the comfortable armchair in front of her about 30 minutes prior, but all she got from him up until that point were silences and changes of subject.
“and how did that make you feel?” god here she went again with that stupid fucking question.
satoru sighed, stretching his legs and arms a little.
sometimes she forgot how massive he actually was.
the woman briefly averted her eyes, looking everywhere but at his stupidly stunning figure, afraid yet another crack would appear in her professional persona.
she’d tell herself it wasn’t her fault, it was only natural after all! he was just very nice to look at.
she could be pretty dense, for a therapist.
“you worry too much,” he said casually, albeit a little irritated, after some back and forth. for some reason he couldn’t quite understand, his mood wasn’t the best that day, but he still tried to keep his usual laid back attitude, hiding the annoyance behind a pout. for her sake.
“i’ve told you countless times, i’m here just because i was basically forced, nothing is actually wrong with me.. if yaga didn’t constantly check in with you, i wouldn’t even attend our ‘sessions’ in the first place”.
well.. if he had to be completely honest, satoru had told only half the truth.
he attended their meetings also because his therapist was a very pretty sight to look at, and surprisingly interesting to talk to (when she wasn’t trying to pry into his feelings, that is.)
satoru was more than aware she was only trying to do her job, he really was. he just.. didn’t care, so he decided he was going to make it her problem. maybe he’d manage to get her to her wits end and she’d finally give up on him.
‘please don’t give up on me’
gojo leaned forward a little, resting his elbows on his knees. a playful smile took over his previously pouty lips as he said something along the lines of ‘why don’t we talk about YOUR feelings instead?’.
maybe he could joke his way out of this? he hoped he could.
his therapist sighs, scrunching her nose and pinching the bridge of it slightly. cute.
“we don’t talk about my feelings because i am your therapist, not the other way around, gojo” she countered, trying to keep the conversation as workplace appropriate as possible, suppressing the urge to headbutt the stubbron (and gorgeous) man in front of her.
the woman was very proud of her skills as a therapist, so much so that the lack of progress with this peculiar snowy haired man left her particularly dissatisfied, so she started putting slightly more effort than usual in trying to crack his façade, hoping he wouldn’t notice.
“and, for your information, i do worry about you for a reason” she continued, voice firm, stern even.
‘she really worries about me?’
“judging by the very limited amount of insight on yourself you’ve provided me, you really do need someone to talk to about your feelings” his pretty therapist added, looking at him straight in the eyes.
she looked like she wanted to obliterate his sunglasses with her mind.
‘don’t look at me like that’
feelings feelings feelings, he was so tired of hearing her going on about them.
after that statement his mood quickly worsened even more, his face fading in a cold, borderline cynical, front.
‘well, thats a first’ she thought to herself, a little taken aback.
satoru had been curious about what exactly she saw in him from day one. was it concern? pity?
‘i don’t want her pity’
whatever it was, it was a waste of time on both ends.
"i see" he hummed thoughtfully as he tapped his fingers against his knee, pondering on his next words. "can I ask you something?"
“sure, go ahead” she answered calmly, a bit of unsureness and skepticism detectable in her voice given the sudden shift in his character.
satoru seemed to stare right through her for a few moments. his gaze was cold and unmoving, his eyes felt like they were piercing hers in a way that no other client's ever has.
“have you ever considered…” he begins slowly, voice low “that you might not be as good at this job as you think you are?”
his words were sharp, each one chosen with great intent. there was something behind his eyes that both fascinated and terrified her.
‘im sorry’
her eyes widened momentarily at his question.
a flash of annoyance, maybe even anger, thundering in them as her eyebrows furrowed, her lips parting to throw an equally biting remark back at him.
be professional.
she took a deep breath and crossed one leg over the other, speaking calmly once again.
“if you want to criticise my skills you’re free to do so, even though you’re not qualified to do so” the woman retorted.
“and if you want a different therapist you’re more than free to ask mr. yaga” her words did have a little edge to them, but she still managed to keep most of her composure.
before the man in front of her could get a word in, she added one more thing.
“but from my perspective, a therapist’s perspective, you do need one” she said as she tapped her heeled foot on the ground.
‘i know i need help’
‘help me please’
satoru pondered for a couple of seconds, then he chuckled humourlessly as he leaned back in his chair.
his face was stoic, similar to a statue, and his eyes lacked their usual shininess, almost looking muddy.
not that she’d noticed anyways, considering they were hidden behind his glasses.
there was an intensity to his gaze though, one that made even just looking at him feel as if she was under a microscope.
"I think you're taking this too personally." he hums, mocking her ever so slightly.
"i’m not criticising your skills per se, all I'm saying is..." he pauses for a moment, considering how best to say it. "even a blind man could see your ‘concern’ for me runs deeper than the usual pity you feel for all your patients”
“you must think i’m really fucking pathetic, huh?”
what the fuck was he going on about?
“my concern for you, or any other patient for the matter, is not based on pity in the first place, gojo” she looked at him, her face bewildered.
“you think i pity you?” she raised both her eyebrows in question, the incredulous expression still on her face.
satoru chuckles. though the sound is soft and quiet, delightful to hear, something about its sweetness makes it bone chilling.
nonetheless, this made her excited.
it was the widest range of emotions he’d ever shown her.
‘im breaking through!’
“do you not?” he asks, shifting in his chair, and leaning back in it once again, folding his arms over his broad chest.
“why else would you be trying as hard as you are to ‘fix’ me?” he asks, a frown stretched across his gorgeous face.
“i’m just a client like any other, but yet here you are! trying your damn hardest to change me.”
ah, so he did noticed her extra effort huh. fuck.
still, who the hell put the idea she pitied him into his stupid head?
“i do not pity you, gojo. i’ve seen patients far worse than you are” she said, almost sounding a little defensive.
“and i’m not trying to ‘fix you’, or change you for that matter! that is not my job!” she exclaimed, a smidge too loud, massaging her temple with one of her hands immediately after. probably to chase away the growing headache he’d given her.
‘i managed to piss off my own therapist what the fuck is wrong with me and why do i even care?’
before he was completely swallowed by his self deprecating thoughts, her voice brought him back once again, like a saving grace.
“my job is helping patients navigate through their emotions, using methods that are tailored perfectly for them” she explained.
“i communicate with my patients to help them find a way to process their feelings that works for them. i do not pity them, i just help them” she paused “..or, well, try to. if they let me” the woman concluded, face serious.
his face twists in distaste as he listened to her speak. bullshit.
“that’s the thing though,” he responds slowly “i don’t need help with that”
the man pulled his sunglasses down the bridge of his nose, finally meeting her eyes properly.
‘he’s so pretty’
“you think I need your little ‘tools’? or to talk about my feelings??” he said, annoyance lacing his voice.
“i have always known how to process my emotions. I don’t need you to teach me how. i’m. fine.”
she barely held back the urge to scoff.
gojo had never realised how bad his coping mechanism were, and she was just trying to get him to develop healthier ones, bit by bit.
‘communicating would be a great fucking start’
evidently though, it wasn’t working, so she decided it was time to switch up her approach and be a little brazen, maybe that would work.
“you? processing emotions? that’s a good one.” she snickered
he scrunched his nose up, questioningly “and what could you possibly mean by that, huh?” he felt himself get more and more agitated as the seconds ticked by.
he felt like he was being stripped naked, exposed, against his will. all the things he’d worked so hard to bury, the careless persona he’d built..
‘stop looking at me, stop finding out things about me i don’t want you to know.’
“you bottle everything up, pretend it’s fine and let it eat at you from the inside, little by little” she looked at him menacingly, her eyes narrowed into slits.
“that big goofy grin, or the confident smirk you put on, doesn’t work in here, gojo”
she clicked her tongue in disapproval. “in this office, i’m reading you, not the other way around” she continued ad she pointed an accusatory finger at him.
“i know you’re used to getting you way, because you’re smart, even though it doesn’t look like it, but as long as your ass is sat in that chair, you won’t find a way to give me answers you think will please me”
“if your goal is to get me to tell yaga to get off your back, then we’re going to be here for loooong. i’m striving for the truth and i’m going to get it”
to hell with being professional.
the man remained silent for a few moments, his expression almost..hurt? “…I think I hate you.”
he smiled in defeat, leaning forward once again, and though his voice was even and calm, it came out a bit strained.
“no, I know I do.” he didn’t though, and that confused him to no end.
the woman gently laid her hands in her lap, trying to ignore the sting his words left in her chest as her voice went back to its usually stoic connotation, completely discarding the venom it previously dripped in.
“i get that a lot from patients like yourself” she started, calmly.
“usually, they drop therapy after a few session because they can’t handle the truth being thrown in their face and then, after a while..”
a pause, like she was choosing her next words carefully “they end up dropping dead on the floor when the fire crew cuts the rope they hung themselves from” she finished, her expression darkening ever so slightly.
“you think you don’t need help, you think you’re fine just ignoring your emotions, but one day they will catch up to you and it’ll be too late to save you” her voice lowered, almost shamefully, as she tore her eyes away from his.
“nobody will be there to save you from drowning.”
satoru looked shocked for a moment, then he felt a sudden and unprovoked rage take over his body.
how dare she?
he wasn’t like that. he was strong. the strongest, actually.
he wordlessly jumped up from of his seat and went to stride straight out of the room, with the intention of never stepping foot there again, but then he stopped, his back still to her.
for some weird reason he couldn’t quite comprehend, gojo felt the need to still try and prove he was fine, despite the fact the issues he’d tried so hard to hide had been uncovered and brought up to the scorching sunlight.
“i’m not stupid. i am perfectly aware shit might eventually catch up to me, but i’m the strongest fucking being that ever walked this earth, i’ll deal with it”
what was meant to be a powerful statement, came out sounding whiny and hoarse, almost like he was trying to delude himself into believing his own words.
‘at least he admitted he has issues, progress is progress’
his therapist opened her mouth to talk, but he didn’t give her a chance.
he felt like he was being consumed by a sudden and foreign rage.
“BESIDES WHY DO YOU EVEN CARE?!” he suddenly screamed, rapidly turning to face her again, his glasses being hauled across the room in the process.
“why are you that concerned over some stranger like me?” he adds, his expression hard, “do you genuinely, truly, believe I’m worth helping?!”
‘we’re going to have to work on these self deprecating thoughts’
‘im the strongest, i don’t need to be cared for.’
“yes, i do” she stood up from her chair in a (failed) attempt to not crane her neck upwards to look at him.
“i do believe you are worth helping” she assured him in a gentle voice “you can walk out now, if you wish, but never forget this is a safe space where you’re free to talk, satoru” she said, her words surprisingly comforting.
“you’re not a god, you’re human just like the rest of us”
being called human never felt so good.. and it was also the first time she had ever called him by his first name.
and just like that, the usual gojo satoru was back, cracking jokes.
“do you normally call your clients by their first name, or am i special?” he asked, the question dripping with sarcasm and a tiny bit of flirt, as a small smile appeared on his lips.
the angry pretty boy has been calmed down, success.
“you definitely have a savior complex” he added quietly, chuckling a bit “it’s cute”.
a smile made its way on her face too as she shook her head a little, her cheeks a little warm at the compliment “whatever lets you sleep at night”
the woman sat back down, once again crossing one leg over the other.
“now, will you sit down and give therapy an actual chance, satoru?” she looked up at him, expectantly and hopefully.
“yeah.. yeah, i’ll do that.”
gojo satoru may have been the strongest sorcerer in modern history, but he was still human like everyone else.

Part 3 of the confessions!! Finally!!!
A/N: fair warning, I wrote half of these in the middle of my health class and the other half at two in the morning- so they might seem rushed sorry<3 Also thank you Cater for coming home.. Not once.. BUT TWICE!!
Warnings: I have no idea how to write Jack-, and like usual not proofread-
GN!reader using the in game nicknames though (Shrimpy, sweet potato)
Characters: Vil Schoenheit (464 words), Jack Howl (414 words), Floyd Leech (448 words)
Vil Schoenheit:
Vil would most likely hear of you through Rook before he actually met you in person, though from what he heard from Rook you were at least interesting
and you met face to face when you, Epel and the rest of the first years were hanging out. You know the usual bickering between Epel and Vil, though Vil did talk to you for a moment or two
he wasn't mean or rude, but wasn't really nice either.
he'd most definitely be one of the people who needs to talk and interact for at least a week before he developed an opinion on you.
a week passed and his actions didn't really change more time passed and he stayed the same, Vil couldn't make out his feelings towards you.
though he would suggest skin care and makeup products that he thought would do you good. But it's not in a backhanded way either, it's almost like he's the complete natural around you.
truth be told, he had partly figured out his feelings after a few months, he didn't dislike you, though at the same time it was still difficult to figure out how he felt
Epel was getting annoyed with how much time Vil was spending around you, "are you in love with them or somethin'? With all the time you spend around them you might as well be"
Vil scolded Epel for his accent and making such an accusation about his dorm leader, but Vil wouldn't admit that that he never thought that he might love you.
the thought felt right to him, so his neural slowly turned nice towards you, though in public it was very much on the down low.
he would wait till he's had a crush for a while to think of how to confess, though when he does find a way, I have a feeling that it’d be really romantic.
Vil strikes me as a person who would do something in a cheesy romance movie and think it’s the most romantic shit ever, problem is it works and he comes off as a complete romantic.
He would most likely invite you to try a new skin care routine he’d make light hearted conversation with you and drop some flirty remarks such as:
 “My my, you do look beautiful today sweet potato, did you put more care in yourself for me? I’m flattered!”
And they’ll come at the most random times too, if you don’t get the hint and are really fucking dense he’ll become more upfront until he practically confesses to you
 “You know, everything I say about you is true, you do look absolutely stunning almost, if not all, of the time. Only someone like you is fit of being my partner, so what do you say, darling?”
Jack Howl:
Ever since Leonas overblot the Jack popped into the chaos group with the other three idiots, (ace, grim, and deuce)
Jack I feel like is the type of friend to regularly check up on you to see if your being healthy. Basically just eating and taking care of yourself.
A few times Jack brought you some extra food since he felt like you weren’t eating enough, he’d get super embarrassed if you mentioned it though.
Jack’s a little bit protective but not like possessive, he just wants to make sure your safe and well! he really just cares for you but doesn’t know how to express it in words.
Jack most likely came to the realization of his feelings on his own accord, I mean he has a lot of time to think during his morning runs, plus I can see him being really emotionally intelligent I don’t know why-
All of the things I just mentioned, they become a lot more common, and if you’re someone who likes to work out Jack might start asking you to join him in his routines.
Daily check in’s, some extra snacks everyday, and becoming a bit more protective of you are all things you can expect from Jack. 
Now though you can usually catch Jack staring at you, when caught he’ll get flustered and turn away almost instantly. (Maybe a tail wag??? Depends on his mood..)
I can also see Jack giving you little potted house plants, think like succulents or maybe some cacti. He says it’ll help brighten up ramshackle a bit
As for confessions, I feel like Jack would be a little bit nervous and have a bit of a hard time approaching you about it. So he’d most likely not confess face to face (Kind of like Riddle in my other set of headcannons) 
Though Jack’s better at keeping his head straight and not getting to worked up about it, don’t get me wrong though, he’s still nervous!
Jack would probably bring you a new plant to take care of, even if you already have a few in your room and slowly becoming a plant parent
He’d specifically give you a type of succulent called a Kalanchoe (They’re often associated with romance and love) with a small note on the pot of it.
it would most likely read: 
“I like you, and I want to be with you.” Short and sweet, all the while he’s looking at the ground with his tail wagging.
Floyd Leech
This mother fucker- We already know Floyd is clingy and and loves affection, it’s kind of a given.
As a friend I can see Floyd teasing you and joking around you since he’s a silly guy, he’s always saying some sort of silly remark or some weird story he heard.
Use this power wisely, you could learn about a lot of things happening in the school, or you learn about a random mushroom Jade made him eat. No inbetween.
I can also see Floyd randomly just- collapsing onto you, like your just walking then all of a sudden you have a eel slumped over your back, head on your shoulder
Floyd is just a menace that’s a given, but now he’s your menace to deal with so good luck.
As for crush behavior, I want you to take that clinginess and just multiply it by like ten. Thought Floyd was bad before? Well good fucking luck you’re in it now!
surprise hugs? check. Popping up at random times to mess with you? Check. Sometimes following you around to make sure no one gets too friendly with his little shrimpy? Big ole’ check!
While Floyd has his moments hes not dumb so he can tell if he’s fallen for you, I mean that and Jade could tell if he changed at all
You now have Floyd attached to your hip at all hours he can be with you, need to go cause you forgot something at ramshackle? He’s coming with no arguments.
A lot more hugs! and I mean a lot, if you ask him to tone it down, he’ll respect it, but there will still be a lot of affection
I can see the confession being kind of accidental, like some random student won’t leave you alone and has an obvious crush on you
they won’t take the hint that you’re not interested and one day decide to confess to you... while Floyd is with you... oh boy..
At first Floyd just glare at him, and after a bit of silence he’ll just start laughing. like.. you know the kind of laugh i’m think of right?
The student would be put off and you might be a little confused but his mood changes from laughing and funny to serious real fucking quick as he leans down a bit to hug you from behind
“ This little shrimpy is mine. so leave them alone, unless you want to be in the hospital for a looong time.” The student runs off, and Floyd goes back to his happy self
“You know, we should just start dating already so you don’t have to deal with that anymore, what do you say shrimpy?~”

Heyo thought I’d drop some random tf2 hcs and stuff cause of ur post :D
- scout and Pyro get along really well and scout will draw for pyro. Scout likes them cause he seems to actually listen to scout talk
- Engineer is pretty oblivious when it comes to people having feelings for him and hes (kinda accidentally) decent at flirting tho
- Engineer is like a father figure to scout and it makes spy really jealous lol
- Demo is really good at karaoke
- Since spy is good at finding this out about people based on body language etc. he knows exactly who has crushes on who in the base and he thinks it’s SO OBVIOUS but it’s not to the rest of them and he’s really close to just screaming at everyone that they’re blind and to just kiss already. He’s just forced to watch all these pining idiots dance around each other and he hates it
- Heavy and Medic have a book club that is just the two of them
- Scout would be a good dad later in life if he had a kid
ohohhoho interesting. Cracks my knuckles.
-scout and pyro friendship truther until I DIE. I find the idea of scout going from being terrified of this weird “thing” to just being besties with Pyro kind of hilarious. I think they can both do art pretty well actually! I like to think they run around towns and do graffiti together.
-Nodding at this. I also think it helps that (to me) hes naturally very friendly and polite because of how he was raised and like half of the people on his team havent heard anything nice from another human being since they were actual children (if that.) Is he good at flirting or are your standards dangerously low? Is it both? Great question!
-Ive always seen engineer as more of a low-maintenance uncle figure to scout If That. They’re just kind of a pretty standard close older dude with a lot of life experience and younger dude with fuck all going on friendship to me. and tbh ive never. Really been able to get behind the idea of spy being “jealous” of any sort of relationship Scout has with other mercs. Whether it’s him being weirded out by father standins or judgemental of potential partners. I don’t think he doesn’t have a weird relationship with seeing scout bond with the other mercs but i feel like it’s just sort of. Idk. A little more of a unique issue for him.
-Accepted. Though i think “good” for him ranges from “genuinely good singing” to “loud, overconfident, and having a great time getting half of the lyrics wrong.”
-As much as I think it would be fun if spy was surprisingly emotionally dense, i cant deny his canonical skills in that sort of field. That’s like. His whole game. I think his approach to trying to help anyone with romance is “he wont unless youre prepared to basically just inflate his ego for the sake of a few tips.” A la expiration date.
-no doubt in my mind that heavy and medic dont agree with a single thing that the other gleams from reading books. Said with love. They will argue about meanings and subtext and the value of interpretation until it sounds like someone’s about to file for divorce and then end with “so same time next week ^_^?”
-I will be so honest with you. I do not know if i could ever see scout being a father, much less a good one NDGSKHJDKNJJ.
Actually . Hm. Thinking about it. I could. SEE it in a sense. I think he would have some good steps to go off of because of his Mom. Unsure of how good his ma’s parenting was but she at least was very caring toward her kids. He’d have that. But i think he’d have to be a lot more emotionally mature to be able to process how his own current issues with dads and fatherhood would healthily translate into being a dad himself. I could see him being really laid back and maybe a little too “im not just your parent, im your friend,” and any hypothetical kid he has would Not take his ass seriously. I think having to parent a teenager would kill him.

could you please please please write this,literally everyone I've asked doesn't want to write my idea!
ok so basically reader x Eddie Munson. Reader and him are on the roof of reader's house,both looking at the sunset,when reader wants to try smoking for the first time. Also they're giving each other surprise birthday presents because their birthdays are 6 days apart. (Eddie's is first,then reader's is 6 days after)(Oh and Eddie gives reader a mixtape and a malachite ring to match it with her malachite necklace and reader gives him crystals and a lot of expensive metal casettes and he flips).
A lot of fluff,really. Oh and they're not dating,they just have the biggest crush on each other.
Title: Real Rings and Expensive Things
Pairing: Eddie x gn!Reader (fluff, mild angst)
Word Count: 2.5k
Warnings: Marriage Iguana (Marijuana), Eddie And Reader Are Stupid Idiots, Reader Is Down BAD (And Also Super Impulsive)
A/N: While thinking up ideas for this oneshot, I became enamoured with the characters I created. I think I’m going to make this an entire AU, but I don’t want to make the original anon uncomfortable, so this specific oneshot will be a spinoff and not canon in the universe. Most of my ideas aren’t relevant to this piece anyways, so I hope it’s okay!
I didn’t explain it in the oneshot, but the reader was adopted by a super rich couple. Also, I changed the request a tiny little bit. You freak out more about your gift than he does for his, but there’s a good reason for it. I hope you like it, anon! <3
By the way, I know absolutely nothing about crystals, so I kinda glossed over the crystal part. I didn't want to make any mistakes so I made it as vague as possible!
Masterlist
The sun is beautiful, golden rays barely peeking through the dense trees behind your house. Birds fly in the distance, most likely Sandhill Cranes– they call the wetlands beyond the line of trees home. Clouds dot the sky, perfectly framing the sunset in pink and purple hues.
All of this natural beauty, and yet, the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen is sitting right next to you. Eddie Munson, with his unruly curly hair and big doe eyes, has the most important star in this solar system beat.
He’s looking out, lips slightly parted in wonder, as he watches the horizon. Your heart clenches at the sight even though you’ve seen him thousands of times. He’s been hanging out with you since literal birth, his face is in photos posted all around your house, and he spends almost every Saturday with you. But, still, there’s something about his face that takes your breath away— every single time.
God, he’s so pretty. You desperately wish you could tell him. Sober, that is. Sometimes, when he’s so fucked up he can barely walk, you whisper the things you hold back. You’re not sure if he remembers or can even comprehend your words through the fog of his high, but you find comfort in the fact that somewhere, hidden deep in his brain, Eddie may know you love him.
Impulsively, you speak before your brain can stop you. He has to know. He needs to know.
“Eddie, I-”
But you choke, frozen like a damn deer in headlights.
He’s turned his head. Looking into his eyes, you’re consumed by an ocean of brown— hundreds of shades, highlighted by the golden sun setting to his right. The depth of his stare cuts deep into your heart, and you see adoration, and kindness, and warmth. Things that most people never bother to see or even look for within him. The grim reality hits: you’d never be able to ever emotionally recover if he rejected you.
What if he only sees you as a friend? Or worse, a sibling. Your parents basically adopted him, too, all those years ago. It wouldn’t be surprising if he saw you as family and nothing more. Would he stick around after you’ve confessed despite the awkward air when he rejects you? Or would you drift apart until he’s just a ghost from your past? Overwhelming emotion wells in your chest. How could you live without him?
You turn your head away to hide the quickly forming tears, pushing the fear of abandonment down. “Can-” you swallow thickly, willing the pain away, “Can you. Er– Well, can I smoke? I know I haven’t tried it before, but– Just, well– yea.” Heat floods your entire body, you’re absolutely mortified. Sure, you couldn’t confess, but damn, did you have to make a complete fool of yourself?
He chuckles lightly, an attractive sound to match his attractive face. “Haven’t even tried cigs yet, and you wanna go straight to weed?” he questions, raising his brow.
You scoff, trying to hide your emotions behind annoyance, “How do you know I was talking about weed?”
“Would you have gotten all stuttery over a cigarette?” Well, he had you there.
Lamely, you shrug. He huffs but digs around in his jean pocket, pulling out a ziploc with a joint. To this day, it still shocks you how brazen he is with his drugs. When you were in school together, he’d bring his food in the same metal lunchbox he carried the little baggies of marijuana in. You assume he still does it, not that you’d know definitively since you graduated in ‘84.
“It’s your first time, so you’re probably gonna cough your lungs out,” he motions to the water bottle at your hip, “You’re gonna need that.”
“Is it… that bad?” You ask hesitantly. The only information you had to go on was Eddie’s ramblings about what it feels like to be high and your observations from when he’d smoked in your presence. You say “observations,” but really, you’d just been watching his lips.
“For most people, no,” he comments casually as he flicks on the lighter.
You quickly snap back, “What the hell does that mean?”
“It means I know you. You’re gonna find a way to choke to death on the smoke.” The little shit is smirking while he says it, knowing you’re gonna be angry with him. Your nose scrunches up, offended, but you don’t say anything because you know he’s absolutely right. Again, he chuckles.
Refocusing on the task at hand, he explains what to do before showing you a demonstration. Yea, you’re definitely gonna need the water. He doesn’t even bother handing the joint to you, instead holding it in front of your lips. Butterflies flutter intensely in your stomach. Fuck. He’s so hot, and he doesn’t even know it.
Maybe when you lean in, your lips “accidentally” brush against his fingertips, but who can really tell? Following his instructions, you don’t immediately breathe out the smoke. It feels… odd? A little uncomfortable, too. You’re sure it shows through your expression, judging by the amused look on Eddie’s face.
Finally breathing it out, you feel like someone’s just punched you in the throat. The muscles seize up suddenly, causing you to double over and cough hard. In the background, you can hear Eddie laughing at you.
He’s laughing. You’re dying, and he’s fucking laughing at you.
Once he’s done giggling at your expense, he scoots next to you and rubs circles on your back with his hand until you can breathe again. Snatching the water, you drink half of it in one go. You scowl at him, but he grins wide in return. Holding out his hand again, he asks cheekily, “Ready for another?”
Still aggravated, you go in for a second time, nipping his finger before you lean back. He murmurs “ouch” half-heartedly, but you both know it didn’t hurt. This time goes over much smoother, and you’re grateful because you don’t think your throat could take that again.
This continues until there’s barely anything left. He drops the burned paper onto the roof unceremoniously and squishes it under his boot. You really should say something, but this is a fight that’s lasted for years. Realistically, if he hasn’t stopped dirtying your section of the roof, he never will, so you decide not to bother.
You can feel him shift because of your head on his shoulder. When had you done that? Oh well, it doesn’t matter because he’s speaking. “Do you wanna exchange gifts now?”
Right, you’d completely forgotten about those. Today is what you affectionately call the “communal birthday.” Eddie’s birthday was three days ago, and yours will be in three more days. It’s the perfect in-between. As children, you’d have birthday parties together on your communal birthday. They had been fun in the moment, but looking back, you’re somber, knowing your parents threw those parties because his own parents didn’t care about his birthday. But, you shouldn’t dwell on such sad topics when you’re about to exchange gifts.
Humming, “Mhm,” you reach over to grab his present. A carefully wrapped cardboard box, tied together with a blood red ribbon. You used children’s Star Wars-themed wrapping paper, of course.
“Wow,” he whistles, holding up the box to admire the print, “Darth Vader, huh?” Giddily, you giggle and turn your head to press your face further into his shoulder. He smiles down at you, “You’re so quiet when you’re high. Normally, I can’t get you to shut up.” You just stick your tongue out at him.
He struggles for a little too long with the bow, but you don’t help him. You’re considering it payback for the teasing things he’s said tonight. Finally, he unties the ribbon and takes off the wrapping paper. He hands the ribbon back to you, knowing you’d reuse it. Gingerly, he picks up the lid and reveals the red tissue paper you’d used to protect the contents.
Carefully, he plucks out the sheets one by one. You smile wide at how gentle he’s being, obviously trying to be mindful of your gift. He comes across the first part of your present, a collection of various crystals, each with different uses and meanings. You want to tell him what they all do and represent, but words are escaping you at the moment. Instead, you promise, “I’ll explain ‘em t’you when ‘m sober.”
“Alright, I’ll hold you to it,” he responds, setting them off to the side. Returning to the box, he pulls out the last few pieces of tissue paper, revealing the best– and most costly– part of his gift.
“Holy fuck!” he blurts, taking a few in his hands to examine them. Limited edition cassettes, eight of them. All on his wishlist and all expensive. “I thought we agreed not to use your parents’ money?”
“Oh,” you mumble, feeling a little embarrassed, “I didn’t.” 
He chuckles in disbelief, swapping the ones in his hands for the tapes left in the box, “Sweetheart, these are worth at least two of your paychecks.”
Yes, you’re working, even though you have rich parents. They’re big on humility and work ethic, so they’d encouraged you to get a job while attending community college. Not that you’d really needed one to form a work ethic. Sure, you grew up with money, but you weren’t spoiled. If anything, Eddie made sure of it, drilling into your head how important it is to not take your wealth for granted.
It was a little… how do you say? Impulsive to buy these for him, sure. But Eddie’s your best friend, and he’s always been there for you, so he deserves a thoughtful gift to show him just how much you appreciate him.
Your mind completely skips over the fact that he’d called you a pet name.
His reaction makes you insecure, so you ask, “D’you not like ‘em?” You still have the receipt somewhere in your room, so you can probably return them if he really doesn’t want the cassettes.
“Not like ‘em?” he repeats, astonished, “I fuckin’ love ‘em! This is an amazing gift, thank you.” He continues to flip all the cassettes over in his hands, inspecting them. They’re in pristine condition, so hopefully, Eddie will keep them safe.
You beam, “Your welcome!” excited he likes the tapes. You’d spent a lot of time thinking of what to get him, so you’re glad your thoughtfulness paid off.
He sets the box aside and picks up his present for you. It’s in a gift bag that you two have been swapping for years, but you’re happy to see it again. There’s colourful tissue paper covering the contents and spilling out the top.
You grab it carefully, as he had, and take your time unwrapping the present. The cassette grabs your attention first, and you chuckle at your similar gifts. It looks like it’s a blank until you turn it over and see Eddie’s signature handwriting on the front. It reads: “Really Cool Mixtape” and has a skull, heart, and fire symbol drawn next to the words. You bite your lip to hide your smile. He’s so adorable. Fishing in the bag, you find a piece of paper pressed against the bottom.
Opening the folded paper, you can’t stop your smile this time. It’s a song list, but what really draws your attention are the crudely drawn doodles of skulls, hearts, and fires in the blank space on the margins. The same shapes that are on the cover of the cassette. You decide to close it, wanting to discover the songs he chose organically.
Grinning wide, you exclaim, “Thank you! I really love it, Eddie.”
“That’s not all,” he says slowly, as if he’s not sure whether he wants to say it or not. Pulling something out of his pocket, he places it gingerly in your hands. You hesitate before looking down.
It’s a simple dark brown box. You take off the top, revealing cream pleather embossed with a fancy logo directly in the center— a jewelry box. Looking up at Eddie, he doesn’t meet your gaze, instead glancing bashfully to the side.
You turn the boxes over so the cream one will fall into your palm. Flipping open the top unveils a beautiful silver and malachite ring.
Sure, you’re high, but you’ve been around authentic jewelry your entire life. This is one hundred percent real, down to the 925 imprinted on the inside of the ring. The malachite appears to be high quality, too, the bands of colour within the stone being distinct and striking.
The ring is so delicate, the polished green stone in the middle is surrounded by silver leaves, which are attached to stems that intertwine to make the band. It’s an exact match to the necklace you’re wearing right now. The one that your mother bought for you when you turned eighteen, the one that’s made by an expensive designer who charges ridiculously high prices. Yea, that one. And now, it’s your turn to freak out.
“Holy shit, Eddie! Oh my God! Holy shit! Eddie! Oh my God!” your words loop as you try to accept just how much his gift cost. If yours is worth two paychecks, his is worth five, easy. You can’t even imagine the amount of drugs he’d had to sell to pay for it.
You carefully take the ring out of the box and slip it onto your finger, holding your hand up to examine it. He smiles sheepishly, “Do you like it?” Your jaw literally drops. How could you not like it? Your mouth moves before your brain can filter your words.
“I– I love you.” Fuck.
You just sit and stare at each other, not moving an inch. Dread settles heavily on you. You’ve just ruined everything. He’s going to leave and never come back. Tears gather in your eyes as you whimper uncertainly, “Eddie.” That seems to break him out of his trance.
“Do you really mean that?”
“Yes.”
“You’re not lying?”
“No.”
In place of words, he grabs you and brings you into a tight hug. You’re a little disoriented but still cling to him, regardless. “I’m so stupid,” he murmurs in your ear, sending shivers up your spine, “I love you, too. Ever since middle school.”
You smile, pulling back, “Me too.”
He grins up at you, “Well, the buzzcut was irresistible, really. Everyone wanted me.”
You both burst out laughing. Eddie’s buzzcut was so bad that he refused to let your parents hang any photos of him from that era. Calming down, Eddie lifts his hands to your face. He rubs his thumbs across your cheek before pulling you down for a sweet kiss just as the sun passes below the horizon. You swear you’ve never been happier, even if it took years to finally get here.
For someone so emotionally intelligent, he always fell short when it came to you.
But maybe you were the same way.

oops its been a while since i've done a longer post abt apex lore but the way they're writing octane right now is really bugging me
so between the new chapter of this season's quest and The Perfect Son i've seen enough of the newer writers' version of octane to say that i don't think they know how to write him in text quests very well?
i'm not gonna lie and say octane was some hidden genius but he also wasn't Objectively Stupid, either. he's a dumbass, but to me that's different from being stupid. like he was well-meaning but impulsive, he was rash but there were semblances of good ideas in that brain of his that could have been Great ideas if he thought about 'em a little more. now he just says stupid things for the sake of... comedy? and not even in the awkward "oops i accidentally said smth dumb" way mirage used to do, just plain "this man was born yesterday" levels of stupidity.
if you compare this chapter to how he was written in the Family Business SFTO or the season 7 and season 9 comics, there's a stark difference. and this was a minor problem in earlier text quests too, but not as bad. he's always been his best in animations and commissioned comics and i think seeing him visually acting out (or voicing) what they're writing him to say makes them realize how he looks and they dial it back.
and it really sucks because i LIKE the *theoretical* direction they're taking octane right now. him getting worse before he gets better and being okay with torres's actions to an extent because he's incredibly selfish and torres in turn worsening his absolute worst traits. that's very interesting and i like it!! especially when this new chapter demonstrated that like octane, torres is also very manipulative and he clearly gets it from him.
but it's hard to take him or his actions seriously when they have him acting like this. it actually HURTS what they want to do with him. remember when octane was emotionally intelligent? emotionally intelligent enough that he was able to tell lifeline was upset and comforted her multiple times after her parents did awful stuff but ALSO emotionally intelligent enough to be shitty and manipulative and guilt-trippy? he wasn't an Empath(tm), but he at least picked up on cues like that and knew how to use that to his advantage. in this new chapter octane is as dense as a brick in regards to how seer's feeling and i can't see This octane smart enough to be as shitty and manipulative the way he used to be and it makes the parallels between him and torres fall flat on their face.
apex seems to have a problem with flanderization of "comedic" characters in general. mirage got turned into a bumbling idiot jackass for a couple of seasons and it was one of the things that made me hate his character. joke's on the writers tho. i've invested too much time into octane for 4 whole years to have him be torn away from me the same way 😤

He sometimes lets people push him around.
Because he is a beautiful, naïve idiot with a big fucking heart.
But he has his limits.
And when those limits are reached, Magnus doesn’t push back.
Magnus wages war.
Timeline 2 did not fucking disappoint. It was so horrible to see Magnus have to deal with that much hatred from Max, the first person he could truly pour his love into without shame or guilt or worry or fear. Only to have all that thrown back at him when he decided to do something good for himself, to save himself from his inevitable demise. Parts of Max kind of remind me of this angry part of Magnus that loathes his father for the pain he has caused. Max is literally mirroring back a lot of Magnus’ inner turmoil, feeling abandoned by the one person that was meant to love and protect him the most. Max’s anger is very valid, this divorce has caused him to lose a lot of his reason, his stability and safety (his family). The thing is he definitely took it too far with his methods for expressing that anger (that billboard was extremely insensitive). I think sometimes we think that the people we love will always come back to us so we throw all our shit at them. That love will always be a container for our hurt, but also we test them to see just how much they love us (and for Max it never feels like enough).
I am glad that Magnus pushed back, set boundaries with Max and showed him that enough is enough, he will only be his punching bag for so long. Magnus never really considered just how bad the consequences of this divorce would be. The massive wedge it would drive between them all, the pain that would surge though each one of them and trigger deeper wounds in them all. I think he honestly thought he was the ‘weak link’ but that’s the thing, you remove a link and the chain is broken. Nothing can really fill that void and so everything that was contained within that just comes spilling out. I commend Magnus for standing strong in his decision to give himself space to heal. It’s so easy sometimes to want to give in when it feels like the pain will never end, when the guilt eats at you until you lose your sense of self. He has slipped up here and there but mostly held strong against all his desires to regret his decision to find his safety. Magnus is actually one of the strongest links, his stubbornness to protect his healing keeps pushing them all forward (even when he has setbacks), he sits in the discomfort of dense emotions and by proxy triggers them all to unravel the past and not to sink back into old ways (thank you Luca for giving him this). Alec does many of these things too, it’s just Magnus is at a different stage of his journey, Alec is only now fully accepting the divorce and moving forward. I am happy Magnus trusted himself because the growth of each one of the Lightwood Banes post divorce has been so human, raw, real and truly eye opening.
There are so many parts of timeline 3 that stuck with me but my brain hurts from studying (and over analysing fics) 😂 All I will say is, I am so glad that Alec and Magnus took a moment to just talk openly and be honest with each other with no expectations. Sharing how proud they are of each other, admitting to their mistakes, admiring each other, being emotionally vulnerable, never forgetting the beautiful bond that they will always share (I’m in my feels now 🥺). It is truly a blessing to see how far they have come and grown after having to process so much buried trauma (Alec not being cringe about Minyun and saying they look good together was just so…sexy? Like calmly asking Magnus what he thought about Shinyun’s fertility issues?? Just wow, so much growth). I love how they are starting to feel okay to relax and be more vulnerable around each other. I totally see small gestures and gentle affection blooming. Like when you care for someone and just want to let them feel and know you are there (even when you’re not). They will both definitely appreciate that comfort, I’m sure they both miss the easy intimacy they have built over the 20+ years, regardless of their relationship status, just talking about everything and nothing (being ‘them’, being Malec). I know ‘civil’ and matured Alec is going to drive Magnus crazy, the fact that he’s not trying to do anything but be friendly and supportive (not actively pursuing him, just accepting what is and seeing what happens - ‘let him come to you’). Having Alec close being so gentle, making his heart thump, shy smiles and all, yet him being so far away, not being able to fully express his love (totally forgetting he is dating someone lol). They will always have some sort of pain to work through but as Magnus said, you should focus on your growth, not the triggers or setbacks you face. I hope they hold strong to this new space for open communication and mutual understanding because I think with Rafael’s current state (and more secrets to be revealed), they are going to need all the love and support they can get.
Hurt - Alec’s drunken rampage. Magnus’ Anxiety. Divorce.
Comfort - Pancakes, Vulnerability, Princeton Hoodie Acceptance & Luca Appreciation. 👌
Thank you always for your amazing work 🥰
🎶Elastic heart - Sia for Magnus motherfucking empowerment Bane but also Streets - Doja Cat because balance baby 💌
(if my posts are too much please tell me! I don’t want to overwhelm your ask box!)
I want to print this shit and put it on my fucking wall 😤😤😤😤
I love how much thought you’ve put into this. Honestly stunned 😭😭😭😭
PS - the duality of your songs >>>>

• “It’s funny. I always feel like I have to do better, even now. I get obsessed with work because it’s better than being depressed. And most of the time it feels like there’s nothing else to do anyway. I just work myself to death because it’s my only reason to stay alive.” and i can see how personal this piece of chapter might be to you, really. i hope you’re doing well :’)
• ahh so now the darkest part are finally surfacing!! very cathartic and very beautiful written!!!

• Oh my my my we are finally going to LA, ngl i was so impatient when you had mentioned earlier how there’s still one chep left before grammys but after going through this it really feels necessary and the most important for character development.
aaaaaaaaa what an emotional whirlwind this was and so much worth the wait!! as i’ve said repeatedly i love how layered characters in your storyline’s are. and with the usual scenario it’s either one of them really fucked up and the other being the saviour! which isn’t the case usually when we talk about something real! but here, they both are scratching the past trauma , at least they’ve started to. it will be worthwhile to witness the journey.
thank you for your hard work :)

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT GO BRRRRR 💀 i know i know!!!! the ice is thawing and nobody was ready for it!!!! least of all these two dummies 🙄
wahhhhh honestly like 80% of what yoongi and reader discuss came from me and the ugly parts of my soul 🤣 it was very cathartic to get it out in this way, and it means a lot that other people are relating to it or can see the honesty in it 🙇‍♀️
sdfkhjsfsdf listen!!! with the way they've been going at it running out of condoms was a thing that had to happen eventually 🤭 did it just so happen to occur at a time when the feelings are overflowing and it quite LITERALLY forced them to slow down and start to put some pieces together 👀 idk...... 🏃‍♀️
asking him why he slept on the couch hmmm..... sounds like straightforward honest communication 🫠 we don't do that here 🫠
i appreciate you seeing both sides of the jungkook thing 🥺 i know a lot of people are upset with her delivery and i don't disagree, girl was MEANNNNN. but!!!! he's also clearly been carrying this torch despite multiple conversations where she expressly stated they were just friends and nothing more. that's not exactly fair to her either, and then on top of that to try and tell her what to do when it's at least partially selfishly motivated by his own feelings.... that's not nothing!!!! so yes he got a verbal slap 💀 and yes i still feel bad about it heuigdhkjdgglj baby starrrrrr i'm sorryyyyyyy 🥺
it's true they had a lot growing to do before the grammys!!!! and now who knows wtf is gonna happen 😵‍💫 i also appreciate you mentioning that there is no "hero" here, they are both deeply fucked up and are only now starting to recognize it in each other and see that commonality 💜 it's definitely making their perspectives shift!!!
thank youuuuu for reading!!!! and never apologize for long feedback because I LIVE FOR IT 👹

“Acts of Service” Jekyll & Utterson Fluff Fic
Y’all want Henry Jekyll/Gabriel Utterson University Roommates Fluff?
Well it doesn’t matter because you’re sure as hell going to get it.
This was going to be like...500 words and then I overshot that to hell. Critiques appreciated.
*****
If there was one thing Gabriel Utterson was good at, it was exuding a high level of pure Christian kindness and service to everyone, and especially for a very flummoxed Henry Jekyll.
Like when Gabriel made coffee and made an extra cup for Henry, just the way he likes it.
Or when Gabriel had laundry to put away and noticed the pile of clothes on Henry’s side of the room, so he hung up his shirts too.
When Gabriel was rushing off to an early morning class and Henry was still sound asleep, but on his way out the door Gabriel took a moment to put the books and papers Henry had left scattered the night before in a neat pile on his desk.
Henry had never asked him to do any of these things. They were never expected. But Gabriel was just…Gabriel. Ever the perfect gentleman, Gabriel Utterson went out of his way for others simply out of a sense of duty.
The only annoying part was that Gabriel refused to let Henry repay any favors. Henry would offer to buy a meal or a round of drinks as a thank you, but Gabriel would staunchly refuse time and time again with a shake of the head and a shy, embarrassed grin, hating being fussed over. Henry tried repaying him in tiny unasked favors as well, but he never did seem to be quite as attentive to those things as Gabriel.
So whenever Henry Jekyll noticed that his discarded dinner plate had been picked up when his back had been turned, or when Gabriel bought extra of Henry’s favorite grapes at the shop, or when he came home to find his missing sock sitting neatly with its companion in his drawer, he felt his heart pick up speed and his face grow hot with—what was it? Anger? Irritation?
He wasn’t mad—not even really annoyed. He appreciated the little gestures, certainly, but he was frustrated. Why did Gabriel insist on going to the trouble to do these things for Henry? Did he think Henry couldn’t take care of himself? Was Gabriel annoyed by Henry’s less organized living habits? Henry had been extremely apologetic for his messier habits when they first started sharing their tiny room together, and Gabriel had always insisted that he wasn’t bothered by it at all.
These weren’t acts of passive aggression either. Henry was positive that Gabriel was completely incapable of it. Each time Henry noticed these favors he made a point to emphasize his thanks to his friend, and Gabriel would reply with a warm “You’re Welcome” or “Oh, it’s nothing!” that was overwhelmingly genuine—not a note of sarcasm or even cold formality about it. Instead his eyes sparkled with such kindness and he’d smile so tenderly that Henry felt all coherency abandon him and his whole body would tense in alarm.
So why? Why did Gabriel do these things? Was he truly that selfless of a human being? Years of cynicism had convinced Henry that no one was truly selfless, that any handout came with a price, but with Gabriel… he had always been giving. Always. Even years ago when they were small children chasing one another while their fathers smoked in the parlor and discussed their shared business interests, Gabriel was always the first to share a toy, first to volunteer for chores, and second to take any kind of treat offered to the boys, allowing Henry to have first pick instead.
The unwarranted kindness set Henry on edge. Not only was it completely inexplicable, but each small gesture felt like it was piling on top of the last to amount to a large debt that Henry owed Gabriel, a debt that he was never allowed to repay.
Some nights the pressure of Gabriel’s caring weighed on Henry’s mind and refused to let him rest. He thoroughly enjoyed living with Gabriel—the two young men got along exceptionally—but kindness and warmth were not things that Henry was used to, and at nights when his mind lingered on his friend’s acts of quiet, unspoken affection, Henry felt a hot, fuzzy feeling overtake him and make him utterly restless, leaving him squirming in his own bed and all too aware of the gentle breathing coming from the bed on the other side of the room.
It was agonizing. Enough was enough.
It was time for a debt to be repaid—properly—and for Henry’s conscience to leave him be.
But how?
It was a stray comment in the early hours of the morning that finally gave Henry the burst of inspiration he needed.
Never quite falling asleep the night before, he heard Gabriel wake up and prepare himself for his earliest classes—poor Gabriel had one day a week where he was up at the crack of dawn and in class all day, while Henry’s schedule for the day only had him spending an hour in a lab, two tops. Shuffling about their tiny room and collecting his books, Henry heard Gabriel softly muttering little reminders to himself.
“I really need to dust some of these shelves.”
Henry’s attention was drawn instantly. As Gabriel made his way out the door, stopping to pick up Henry’s fallen coat and put it back on the rack, Henry was already planning out his day.
He’d clean the room.
All of it.
The two kept the space as tidy as they could, but in the months since they moved in together, neither one had taken the time to pull out a mop, a bucket of soap, a broom, or anything that would really give the space a proper cleaning.
After his lab class this morning, Henry could run back and begin tidying up. It was perfect. It would make up for all the tiny little messes Henry usually left in his wake, and for all the times Gabriel would silently follow behind and straighten up on his behalf.
He’d make a shiny, good-as-new room to come home to, and perhaps a pot of Gabriel’s favorite tea as well.
Leaving his class early that day, Henry began gathering his supplies. With a slight spring in his step, he imagined Gabriel’s delighted face as he came home to a spotless bedroom, his favorite tea ready on his desk, Henry calmly sipping at his own cup, book in hand, casually accepting his friend’s thanks and never betraying that his heart danced in his chest with the praise.
It took about 12 seconds after coming back to the room for Henry to realize he didn’t really have the slightest idea where to start with his project.
He’d never really had to clean before.
Staring at the small rectangular room, he wasn’t sure if he should start with the floors, the beds, the dresser—was he supposed to wipe down the windows?
Arms still laden with feather dusters, rags, and a bucket of sudsy water, he decided he might as well start at the far corner of the room and work his way forward. He’d figure things out as he went along. How hard could it be?
Apparently harder than he thought.
He had started with taking the duster to any surface he could reach and was disappointed to discover that despite being over six feet tall, Henry still couldn’t quite reach the top of the molding that trimmed the walls of the room. He had also bumped the bucket of water, sending some of it splashing over the side and onto the rug laid next to his bed. He’d probably have to hang that to dry. He’d get to that later, though.
When trying to scrub the floor, he realized he couldn’t quite reach all the way underneath the dresser, even when on his hands and knees. He pulled it away from the wall and exposed a lovely line of dust and dirt—an outline that separated where the dresser once stood blocking the pristine wall from the grime that plagued the rest of it. Did that mean Henry would have to clean the wall too?
He finally made his way to Gabriel’s portion of the room, carving a disheveled but (mostly) disinfected path behind him, and he came to the realization that he’d probably have to move some of Gabriel’s belongings to properly clean everything.
That presented an issue. Henry was doing all of this as a favor for Gabriel, and he didn’t want to inadvertently move something important and create an inconvenience instead. He’d have to carefully study where all his things were and make sure that everything was perfectly replaced afterward. Tearing out a spare piece of paper, he started sketching the general layout of the books and supplies that sat upon Gabriel’s desk, making notes for when he’d have to put everything away. He couldn’t explain why he felt his cheeks grow hot at the thought of Gabriel finding this little sketch, but he knew he would feel foolish he ever did. Maybe he was embarrassed that he was just bad at this whole cleanliness thing.
Feeling satisfied with his little map for later, Henry began picking up the books and notes and papers that lay on the desk. As he turned to move them to the empty bed, he bumped the bucket again and this time stumbled sending half the books and all of the loose papers in his arms across the floor. Panicking because the floor was still damp, Henry began scrambling to pick everything up before--
“What’s all this?”
Gabriel.
He was home. Early. Standing at the door’s threshold, bag still slung over his shoulder, Gabriel was gaping at him, cheeks growing red.
Henry, still on all fours, became all too aware of how incriminating this all looked and felt his heart sink.
“Gabriel! I--I’m sorry, I’m…cleaning.”
“Is that what you call it, then?”
Was Gabriel accusing him of—no! No, no, this was bad! This was not how this was supposed to go!
Henry sprang up, heart pounding. Before he could begin sputtering out an explanation, he noticed that Gabriel had dropped his bag, and there was an unusual gleam in his eye.
Gabriel must be thinking Henry was trying to spy on him by rifling through his belongings, or rob him, or-
He needed to answer for himself. Immediately.
“Yes! Well…it started as cleaning. I felt it was my turn to repay the favor to you, since you’re always tidying up after me. I decided to clean the whole room, and when I went to dust off your shelves and your desk, I needed to move everything off, but then I also wanted to be positive that I put everything away exactly the way you had it before, but when doing so I dropped a couple of your notebooks and your papers went—”
His thoughts came to a halt when Gabriel started to laugh.
Please, anything but that.
But it wasn’t a mocking laugh. No, it was warm and jovial, and Henry brought himself to raise his eyes and noticed that Gabriel was blushing deeply, a shy grin on his face that kickstarted Henry’s already frantic heart and left him feeling breathless.
“I swear I wasn’t trying to snoop through your belongings, Gabriel,” Henry said sheepishly, gesturing to the small stock of cleaning supplies that lay strewn across the room.
“Of course not, I know you would never--”
“And I’m sorry I just wound up making a mess of your things instead,” he said, his own face hot.
Gabriel cleared his throat and straightened himself up a bit.
“Well, why don’t you let me help you with that, then?”

picture this: tendou trying to get ushijima and reader to realize they’re in love with each other because they’re both himbos. hijinks ensues
Two Fools In Love
Warnings - Twice the amount of himbo
Note: This was fun, also sorry it took so damn long. It's been like 1 or 2 days? Idk. It's mentioned that your grades aren't the best, so if they actually are, just pretend for the homie okay? Also I actually looked up an "are you in love with your best friend" quiz to get some of the questions ✌Anyways here's your request :)
Male Reader
Tumblr media
Tendou doesn't know why he still hangs around big buff idiots.
"Tendou!" He turns his head to see you waving and smiling, running towards him. Ushijima was trailing behind you, his eyes locked on your back adoringly.
Oh yeah, that's why.
You were his best friends, and ditching you two wasn't going to do any good for him.
The only thing more aggravating than being in love, he decided, was was trying to get people to realize that they're in love.
Tendou tried. He tried his best! He had just straight up told Ushijima, "(y/n) likes you" about a week ago. It was so painfully obvious that you guys were in love with each other from day one. Ushijima thought for a moment before replying "I suppose I like him too. He's a good friend."
He just couldn't take it anymore! The lovestruck looks you would send each other's way never failed to make him want to tear his hair out. Watching two fools being so hopelessly in love would make anyone want to intervene!
So, naturally, Tendou stayed up the night before to devise a plan.
~~~
"Are you in love with your best friend," Ushijima reads out in a monotonous tone.
Yep.
Tendou had searched up some second party quiz online.
"This is pointless Tendou, I've already told you that he is a wonderful friend. How could I be in love with him?" Ushijima looked away from the screen to raise a brow at Tendou, who was currently seated on the floor of Ushijima's dorm room.
Tendou rolls his eyes. "Just do it."
Ushijima just looked back down and clicked on the screen. "Are they the first person you cannot when something happens?" He reads off of the screen. "No." He answers out loud, then looks at Tendou, "I usually call you."
Tendou rolled his eyes. "That's because I'm the emotional support."
"But I do not need any–"
"Just continue the questions," Tendou interrupted him with a voice that could only be described as lying to your neighbor about how great their casserole is.
"Do you try to make him or her ha–"
"INSIDE YOUR HEAD!"
~~~
Ushijima pursed his lip and closed the laptop. Was he really about to let some internet test decide whether or not he was in love with you?
Yes. He so was.
He realized how deeply in love with you he is because of a test on the internet. Tendou expected some big shoujo manga revelation where Ushijima jumped up and ran to your dorm to confess his undying love for you, but really the most he got was an "oh."
Tendou just pumped a fist in the air triumphantly.
One himbo down, one more to go.
... That was going to be way harder than he thought. Maybe he should just convince Ushijima to confess to you. He means, you've already basically confessed to Tendou that you had a huge crush on Ushijima, so if the big guy himself confesses to you then Tendou's problems are over!
That was also going to be way harder than initially thought. Both of you were rather dense in your respective natures. Ushijima isn't good with social cues whatsoever, but you seemed to be rather emotionally adept. Your grades however, they didn't look too good. (Much like Ushijima, but that doesn't need to be in the spotlight). That emotional intelligence only goes so far though, and it appears to end right at Ushijima's feet.
"What do you do when you're in love, Tendou?" Wakatoshi turned to give Tendou a quizzical look. The boy really tried his best, but it was so obvious that his brain only works at full capacity for volleyball.
Tendou shrugs. "Kiss him on the cheek or something. Lovers do that." In all honesty, Tendou was out of ideas. He wasted most of his matchmaker genius coming up with that online quiz plan, so his cupid gland was pretty buzzed out.
Ushijima didn't seem to notice however, and instead brought a finger to his chin in contemplation.
~~~
On the walk to the school building the next day, Tendou wore a satisfied smile. You were walking next to him, talking about something that you found interesting that happened in your favourite show.
The reason Tendou was so smug was that he know his work was coming to a close. He had planted a seed in Ushijima Wakatoshi's mind, and now the two of you were definitely going to get together. Honestly if anyone found out that most of his time spent in the last two weeks was trying to get his best friends to hook up, he would probably crawl in a hole in an attempt to hide.
Just as he thought that, Ushijima approached you. He gave Tendou a curt bow as a greeting, and when he turned to you he put his large hand on your shoulder. "Morning Ushijima-kun," you smiled at him brightly.
"Morning," he murmured, leaning (down/up/over) to press a light kiss to your temple.
When he pulled back, you were staring at him with wide eyes. You two stood in silence for a second. "Apologies," Ushijima started to retract his hand, "That must have been forward of me. Please forget that I-"
"No! No no, it was fine," you interrupted quickly. You grabbed his hand and directed it towards your cheek. "I just didn't expect it is all."
Ushijima went pink. Holding your face in his hand made him feel warmth in the pit of his stomach.
"God finally!" Tendou exclaimed, kind of ruining the moment. "I thought you two would never get here! I mean with all the pining and the looks, it just seemed like-" The sounds of his rant got quieter the further away he moved, leaving you and Ushijima to stand in silent shock.
You bit your lip and turned your head away from Tendou's retreating silhouette to face Ushijima. "So... are we.. you know, together now?"
Ushijima thought for a moment.
"Yes. I suppose we are."

cold | pjm
pairing: park jimin x oc
genre: fluff, slight tsundere jimin, just cuteness tbh
words: 3, 339
summary: where jimin is ice cold but he wants you to warm him up (not in the way you think)
Tumblr media
When Jimin pulls away for the first time in a year since you’ve met him during your movie nights, you suspect that something’s up. But, you also know Jimin—he would have said something to you if there was.
You raise an eyebrow at him, “You good?”
Jimin sighs at you, frustrated and you can’t help but feel confused at the sudden shift of atmosphere. You thought picking La La Land was a good choice, but you suppose that since Jimin was a little emotionally constipated he didn’t like it as much.
“I’m not, actually.” He declares, tugging off the blanket that covered both of your lower halves and withdrew from the warmth that settled into the couch.
“Do you—” You contemplate on asking because being Jimin’s friend meant respecting certain boundaries, and you weren't intending to be that friend that stuck their nose in his business.
You choose to remain silent and purse your lips and settle back into the couch, though it felt a little empty without Jimin bunched up next to you. But he was an enigma of unopened thoughts, and the time you spent navigating the course of your friendship in the first few months was ... heavy.
He’d never tell you anything, let alone allow you to indulge in the greatness that was his mind. You’d always hear from Namjoon how much he looks up to and respects Jimin’s way of thinking and mindset, but you rarely get to see that part of him. Sometimes, you felt more of a seat-warmer than a friend. You appreciate him, nonetheless.
“Aren’t you going to ask me about it?” He pries you.
You shrug, covering yourself with the blanket in hopes that it masks your vulnerability and insecurity, too.
“I know you.” You tell him, “You don’t like being questioned unless you say something about it first.”
He purses his lips in a straight line and looks at you ... like he really looks at you. So much that you feel his eyes burning into the side of your head; as if he was attempting to unravel your mind and dig into its deepest depths to understand its content.
“I don’t …” He says after looking at you, head-turning to face the television. Was La La Land seriously still relevant now?
“But I’m asking you to ask me.” He says, and the look of surprise on your face doesn’t disappoint. You gaped at him, forgetting the fact that Ryan Gosling looked really handsome on the screen—because Jimin had just prompted you to ask him about his … feelings.
“I—I don’t understand …” You say, dumbly. He rolls his eyes at you, and you’re familiar with his expression because it’s the one he usually has when he wants to call you an idiot.
“Ask me how I feel.”
You open your mouth, then close it. Your words fail you because the entire situation was sprung onto you so unexpectedly, and you suddenly feel self-conscious about everything. Was this Jimin’s way of assessing you as a friend and throwing you to the curb after a year of being platonically involved with one another?
As if he could hear the millions of thoughts running in your head, he turns to you and grabs your cheeks in between his large palms, and this time you actually short-circuit.
Your intimacy with Jimin stopped at sitting next to each other during movie nights and embracing the warmth that your bodies radiated. Maybe even the occasional accidental brush of fingers when he hands you something, but besides that—Jimin was conservative with his touches.
You can’t lie and say that your heart doesn’t react differently, because for the most part of your friendship you’ve suppressed any romantic feelings that you had or could have had for Jimin. Mostly out of self-preservation because Jimin was just … Jimin.
Cold, aloof but still someone that cared deeply. Yes, he was emotionally constipated when it came to his own feelings, and yes —his gaze more often than not had you cowering in fear. But he never made you feel uncomfortable. Even in the silences, you spent with one another you felt safe. Home.
Not to mention, his entire brooding and stoic persona hit it really well with the women on campus—and the fact he was obscenely attractive. He and you were the types of people that remained just as friends. And suddenly, that could end tonight, too.
“What’s going on in that pretty head of yours?” He hums, eyes chasing your own but you divert your attention away from him because your eyes tell.
You shake your head, “I’m just confused.”
And confused you were because this was a territory that was unheard of for you—much less for Jimin. If only you could telepathically speak to Namjoon right now because you had no idea what to do or say.
“Well, I’ll keep it simple for you,” He says, “ Ask me how I feel.”
He doesn’t ask you anymore, instead, he insists—as if there was a preconceived answer for you already in the back of his head. Maybe this was how he softened the blow.
“No.” You push him away, flustered. “I won’t let you friend break up with me like this!”
He raises an eyebrow at the sudden rise of voice you admitted, “I like being your friend even if you don’t—and—and I know that yeah, consent matters—but I do not consent to be friend broken up with.”
He listens to you, and his face is still in its signature blankness and you nearly scream at how you wished he’d display a little emotion or a reaction to your blow up. But it seems that between the two of you, you were the emotionally unstable one.
“I know I can be annoying and all over the place and loud but ...” You immediately opt to self-deprecate yourself because nothing could triumph the way it felt to do it yourself than have him say it to your face, “... you’re not allowed to leave me. Ever .”
You fold your arms across your chest and look away because what the fuck did you just do and your face was undebatably on fire right now.
As if he’s noticed the way your eyes widen in realisation, he holds you again—but this time he pulls you closer to his chest until you are forced to look up at him with your flushed cheeks.
“Silly girl.” He hums and you whine.
“What!”
“I have to do everything myself, hm?” He tucks a strand of stray hair behind your ears and it was instinctual for you to pull away because you’ve never felt Jimin like this before. Close, and warm—and all yours.
“Jimin I don’t understand— mpf!” And it was like a scene straight out of a romcom, and you nearly forget that La La Land was still running in the background. You felt like the main character of your own movie, and Jimin was the protagonist's love interest because he kissed you.
Jimin was kissing you.
Kissing. Like lip-locking. Sharing saliva. With you.
He pulls away too soon for your liking, but you gape at him like a fish out of water.
“You—” You stutter, and he chuckles. You feel it more than you hear it because his chest was resting against your cheek.
“Do you understand now?”
You shake your head, “... you feel bad for me?”
He snorts.
“I don’t know if you’re actually this much of an idiot, or are you just hopeless in the romantic department?” He says, and you open your mouth in the offense, ready to defend yourself but he hugs you closer to him and all you could feel was him.
“Excuse me? I’m not an idiot.”
“I just kissed you and you thought I felt bad for you.”
You huff, “What am I supposed to feel! You never speak about your emotions to me, and the most I’ve ever got out from you was a chuckle from the time where I slipped in front of the entire campus during freshers week.”
“That was when we met, yes.” He hums, “Why did you think I’ve been with you ever since?”
You still looked confused and Jimin internally sighs at the way he let himself fall for a dense excuse of a human being like you.
“Cause … you felt 'bad for me?”
"Just because you air-quote it doesn't make it any different from what you said earlier ____."
He groans, “No you dumbass—it’s cause no one makes me feel things the way you do. Strange weirdo who slipped on absolutely nothing, and as a friend who forces me to watch shitty romcoms like La La Land.”
“La La Land is not shitty!” You gasp.
He blinks.
“Is that all you got from what I said?”
“La La Land is phenomenal! All from the artistic production, to the soundtrack—so I don't know why people keep shitting on it because personally I really enjoyed—” But he kisses you again, and you melt into him immediately.
This time he lingers for a bit longer, and when he pulls away you grab onto his shirt to keep him close. You realise your mistake and suddenly push him away, but his hold on you was tight enough to resist your poor attempt.
“I like you, dummy.” He says, and you gasp.
“Nooo.” You say in disbelief.
“I like you.” He emphasises again, and you gasp. Again.
“No, you don’t.” You tell him, and he sighs—knowing that this was going to take a while.
“I do.”
“You don’t.”
“I do .”
“Nope.”
“ Yes .”
“Nuh-uh—!”
He clamps his hand over your mouth and glares at you.
“Me. Park Jimin—likes you, ____ ____, and yes —I can’t believe I like a complete idiot like you, but I do because you fucked up and made me like you from the moment you embarrassed yourself in front of everyone so bad that it was probably the hardest I’ve ever cringed in my life—”
“Hey!”
“—but you quite literally stumbled into my life with your whirlwind of emotions and you made me feel things that I’ve tried to avoid my entire life.” He holds your chin between his thumb and finger so you’d look at him. And you know that Jimin never lies, but something in your heart doesn't allow you that moment of happiness for yourself.
“But I'm annoying …” You say, a little unsure. Jimin simply looks at you, and you're frustrated again at the lack of emotion on his face.
“Yes, you are.” Is all he says, and you gape at his audacity.
You huff, throw the blanket off your body and make way to grab at your belongings that lay idle on the floor next to the couch. You pulled away from Jimin who attempted to grab at your wrist and glare at him so vehemently that he looked taken aback.
“This isn't a joke.” You tell him, and you hoped you looked as strong as you sounded because you felt played. Jimin didn't do this—you were just the clumsy freshmen that somehow befriended him, and he had no way out of it. So you decided to give him a way out on your own.
“Wait—of course, it's not—where are you going?” He exasperates when you make a beeline go to his door. You've never seen Jimin move as quickly as he did, but he manages to secure a tight grip on your elbow.
You try to shove him aside all while you felt like an immense idiot for allowing yourself to feel this way. To feel so human, and raw when you were with Jimin when he hadn't shown an inkling of emotion even when he declared that he ‘liked’ you.
“____—what’s wrong? Is it because I kissed you without asking you? I'm sorry but— ” He apologises and you groan.
“Stop treating me like this!” You yell at him to cut him off, “I know I'm clumsy, and a ditz—but I have feelings and it's not cool how you're doing all of—” You gesture to the hand on your elbow and to your lips, “— this, making me feel things that I shouldn't be feeling.”
“You're missing the point—!”
“Am I Jimin?” You exasperate, and he lets go of you for a moment to allow you space. “You've never shown any sign that you liked me for the past year of being friends, and now you're telling me you do?”
You scoff, “If you wanted out of this friendship, here it is.”
You reach to his doorknob with your back turned towards him, but Jimin was far stronger than you and reached out at the same time; essentially locking you into your position with nowhere to go.
“Just let me go,” You sigh, “I'm giving you your out.”
Jimin turns your body to face him and you avoid his stare. He was taller than you so being locked against the door was a little intimidating, given the fact that Jimin’s stare was nothing short of intimidating.
“Why would I want out?” He asks you, and you blink at him as if he's grown a second head.
“Now you're just treating me like I'm stupid .” You pout, “Did you not hear what I said? I know I'm annoying and I'll get out of your hair, just let me go—!”
You pull at his wrist but he holds you tighter and uses his other hand to softly grab at your cheeks to look at him. You stare at him with wide eyes and mouth scrunched like a fish, and you're sure this doesn't look the least bit flattering at all.
“Dude!”
“Please don't dude me after I just said I liked you.” He grimaces, then sighs.
He proceeds to clamp his hand over your mouth, “Now I need you to listen to me. And I mean— really listen. Not the thing that you do where you completely ignore my point and go on some childish rampage of how I think you’re annoying and want out.”
You glare at him.
He sighs, “I don't know how explicit I have to be—but I like you. I like your presence, I like hanging out with you—and I want to date you. I want everything that's in the book of romance and relationships with you.”
Your eyes widened and you attempt to speak but he clamps down harder than you whine.
“I know I'm an emotionless brick but I've been with you for the past year and my physical presence is the way I show you that I like you.”
You blink.
“And, I don't know if you've noticed but I've been inviting you over every fortnight just to cuddle up next to you to watch movies that are cheesy as fuck because I know that it makes your heart flutter—” He looks straight into your eyes and you're sure he can feel the heat of your cheeks on his hand.
“—I didn’t say this earlier because I was under the impression that you were aware and that we were kind-of-dating but not really— clearly, I was wrong.”
You manage to rip his hand off in his moment of weakness and gasp, “Kind-of-dating? Since when did that even happen?!”
He pointedly looks at you, “You have a toothbrush at my place, half of your closet is in mine—you walk my dog when I'm not home, and I buy your favourite cereal when I do groceries.”
“But—”
“Nope—the only reason I explicitly told you tonight because it was now clear to me that you weren't aware—” He gestures to your frazzled state, “—and that you said you were going out with Taehyung. Alone. To a pizza parlour.”
You barely manage to respond because he exasperates, “Do you know how datey a pizza parlour is?”
You gape at him, “Well excuse me! I didn't even know we were kind-of-dating until a minute ago!”
He glares at you, “And you didn't even believe me when I told you I liked you.”
You fold your arms across your chest, “Obviously. You don't even hold my hand, and you've never kissed me until tonight.”
You punch his shoulder and he hisses, “You didn't even formally ask me out!”
“You’re a scaredy-cat and if I did ask you out you’d probably run away from me!” He exasperates with his hands in the air.
“I’m not a scaredy-cat and I won’t run away!” You argue back and you were suddenly aware of how close he was to you.
You look up at him and notice how pretty his eyelashes were, and how he does look at you with an intimacy that you've only seen for yourself. The look that he reserved for you.
“I'm asking you out now,” He whispers, cupping your cheek.
“Date me. Be with me.”
You scoff, “God. Can’t you even be a little romantic? It’s like you’re demanding me to be with you.” You respond petulantly like a child.
He groans, “I'm not going to grovel you if that's what you're expecting.”
“Tell me why then.”
He raises an eyebrow.
You clear your throat and fiddle with your thumbs, a nervous tick you have.
“Tell me why you like me.”
Jimin stares at you and you want to complain about his stoic expression but he cups your cheeks in his hands a little harder and forces you to really look at him—as if his face held all the answers.
And when you did, you see the desperation behind his eyes, the dedication that he possesses only for you. The way he looks at you like he's meant to prove something to you, and then everything made sense to you—he wasn't inexpressive—you were just too caught up in your own world that you never noticed.
“Jimin—” Your voice cracks but he shushes you, softly.
“Listen to me, okay?” He asks of you and you gently nod.
“I like you because you're here,” He starts off and you were about to scoff but he speaks again knowing your predetermined reaction, “You’re present— always. I don't mean just because we're always together, but because even when we're texting you're there. You're involved.”
“You're expressive in ways that don't need words to tell me anything, which is why I know you like me too.”
“Cocky, much?” You scoff but the burn on your cheeks give the truth away
He smiles a little before continuing, “But that's not it—I like you because you're patient. You stuck with me being emotionally constipated for the first half of our friendship, and yet you're still here.”
“Even though you nearly ran out of here spewing some bullshit about me taking you as a joke—”
“Okay … I may have blown it out of proportion.”
“—but I wouldn't want to have you any other way. Even if it took me literally trapping you against a door for you to listen.”
You melt into his touch and look up at him, “Do you really like me?”
“I really do.” He affirms you, and you tug him closer to bury your head into his chest.
“Can you hold my hand next time?” You ask, softly. And he chuckles against the top of your head, caressing it gently.
“Of course. That's the only way you won't run away from me next time, right?” He teases.
You whine.
“I'm never going to let you go.” He tells you, “You're pretty like this—all mine .”
You smile up at him and Jimin swears his heart melts to be rebuilt whole by you again.
“But you called me an idiot ...”
“Two things can be true at the same time.”
You gasp, “Rude—!”
He shuts you up with a kiss more passionate, and a lot more eager that has your head spinning.
When he pulls away, you feel your heartbeat a little faster—especially at the string of saliva that connects your mouths.
“Mine,” He says. You can't help but nod.
His.

GIVE ME. FRIENDSHIP/RELATIONSHIP DYNAMIC HCS
for example AruAni gives off “I hate everybody but I hate you less” energy
literally any duo/trio/group you want just plz. I love them and I have my own ideas but wanna see yours ✌️💋
ohoho here we go.... this is gonna be a long one
AOT pairings + their dynamics
no warnings
eren / mikasa (romantic): the crime fighting duo
they can and they will mess up anyone and everyone who fucks with them. the kind of duo that seems to bond the most when they’re being violent and they want to make you scream “JUST CONFESS YOUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER, FOOLS” and the slowburn is far too painful on the soul
eren / armin (platonic): the bad guy and the virtuous ray of sunshine
armin is the sweetest creature to grace this world and eren is literally the opposite but somehow they’re compatible. eren acts emotionally unavailable but good god armin brings out even the most buried emotion in him through his blinding rays of obnoxious joy and caring. obviously this didn’t last forever
eren / levi (platonic): the obnoxious child and the tired parent
somebody please give levi a break. it’s difficult being a single mother of six especially when you’re a middle aged man and one of your children is a war criminal.
sasha / connie (open to interpretation): the dumb & dumber mutual enablers
where one goes, the other goes. what trouble one gets into, the other gets into. they enable each other’s chaos and general misdeeds and will sit next to each other in a jail cell awaiting levi to bail them out while giggling and saying “wasn’t that fun?”
sasha / reiner (platonic): the eccentric girl and her emotional support himbo
one is a ball of chaos with a soft spot and the other is (relatively) normal but is also a chaos enabler. they feed off of each other's energy and are just about the closest thing you can get to the human equivalents of a bull and a matador but they also rely on each other for emotional support
armin / annie (romantic): pure looking (but hella shady) and scary looking (but actually a softie)
they are definitely not what either of them appear to be. the gentle little ball of sunshine is actually a scheming bastard and the one that looks like she’ll beat you up just for looking at her the wrong way is actually very soft at heart. and they are in love of course
jean / armin (platonic): the delinquent and the keener
jean used to skip, get bad grades, and get in trouble a lot but eventually worked on becoming a lot better because of armin’s enthusiasm and borderline annoying encouragement. on the other hand armin loosened up a lot and became less strict thanks to jean’s easy going attitude and they help each other improve themselves :’)
jean / connie (platonic): the dumbass and “oh god I guess they’re MY dumbass”
connie is like a dog without a leash and jean is the wrangler that desperately tries to keep him at least relatively tame. although sometimes it’s hard to keep somebody in check while also not wanting to give into their shenanigans and enable them
connie / reiner (platonic): the idiot and the idiot in progress
one has been an idiot since birth and it shows. meanwhile the other is losing more brain cells the more time they spend together. they feed off of each other’s energy and channel it into chaos and misdeeds
historia / ymir (romantic): the loner and the popular chick
historia is one of the few people who actually notices ymir, who doesn’t get the hype about her at first but warms up to her over time. they seem like polar opposites to anyone on the outside so it might be hard to tell that they’re very compatible with each other and lowkey enable each other
hange / levi (open to interpretation): the hooligan and the voice of reason
hange is the big bad conniving bastard and levi is the poor sod that has been dragged into their mess and was hit with a sudden and painful realization that he’s in deep trouble in every possible sense of the word. they are of equal strength except one has rabies
erwin / levi (open to interpretation): the kind giant and the bundle of repressed rage
one will make impulsive decisions on a dime and the other is the only one that can keep him grounded, at least most of the time. one is easy going the other is seething with buried anger and they balance each other out. however both would throw hands if anyone got between them
levi / zeke (open to interpretation): enemies to acquaintances to friends to ???
nobody knows what they truly think about each other and they probably don’t either. they’ll be fighting tooth and nail one moment then probably go out to get lunch an hour later. it’s a bit rocky, but they’ll figure it out eventually
reiner / bertholdt (romantic): two bros chillin in a hot tub 5 feet apart because they won’t confess their undying love for each other
literally everyone can sense the mutual pining from a mile away but they’re both so dense and oblivious for the longest time until they get things sorted and confess. one has too much pride to risk losing and the other is scared to ruin their relationship. this pairing will test both your patience and your sanity
reiner / eren (platonic): rivals to dumbass bros
most of the time they can’t stand each other and will argue with no end in sight but other times they’ll be slumped against each other or one will be sprawled out across the other and they’re having deep conversations and watching tv. it’s really a hit or miss situation
reiner / ymir (platonic): the gay solidarity
the mlm and wlw solidarity is real and it shows. they’re both jerks who only really have each other in terms of close friendships but by all means it’s an unbreakable bond
reiner / armin (platonic): honorarily deemed “one of the boys”
they have some kind of solidarity but neither of them really knows what it is, they just get along really well for some reason. thus reiner has deemed armin officially one of the boys and is included in activities w the boys e.g. movie night. they have a lot of inside jokes
reiner / zeke / bertholdt (platonic): the pining couple and the third wheel
reiner and bertholdt won’t admit it to his face because it would boost his ego tenfold but they’re lowkey kinda scared of zeke. but zeke is just a himbo that kind of hangs around and judges them and can tell they’re in love and is just waiting for the day they admit it
bertholdt / armin (platonic): the pessimist and the optimist
they’re both very pure sweet besties except one is a cynic and the other focuses on all the joy in the world. fill in the blanks.
pieck / porco (open to interpretation): the cinnabun and the hothead
one is too sweet and wholesome to be alive and the other is perpetually angry but is still cute. the contrast shows but they’re still sweethearts that are obviously meant to balance each other out
porco / reiner (platonic): the bastard and the accidental bastard magnet
they started as enemies and slowly evolved into something vaguely reminiscent of... friends? yeah, friends. reiner doesn’t know how he keeps attracting assholes like this but for some godforsaken reason he puts up with it.

—Moot-ikemen compatibility
Tumblr media
TW: I'm just bullying the characters lol
Notes: By popular demand six people, the list of who I think moots are most compatible with (platonically or romantically, interpret it as you wish) from the three ikemen games minus ikepri <3
Tumblr media
@a-chaotic-dumbass + Jonah (ikerev)
That man is petty as hell and seriously self absorbed. Like, he needs to one day wake up, look in a mirror, look a complete fucking mess and simply leave it as it is and spend the day laying around; the man needs some modesty and chill with his mint toothpaste looking hair.
Despite that, the two of you would have a pretty good dynamic of trying to out petty and out god complex one another and from that point, eventually, there's some kind of mutual respect there because you're idiots but not idiot idiots so you can see where the other is coming from.
Like, it's a relationship of consensual-ish bullying where the two of you will begrudgingly help the other if they're upset even if you do it with all the tact of a cat biting its owner's toes when they can tell that they're sad.
@rurifangirl + Loki (ikerev)
I was just gonna say that he's a cat boy and just leave it at that absjgHjwga
You're both very similar but in a way that doesn't guarantee your mutual self destruction. You both have things that you're going through and also have the right kind of mindset that would work with the other really well because you're understanding and really caring, if in a little bit of a chaotic way and he's the kind of lost that needs someone to guide him in the right direction but in the way that you're both walking down the healing road rather than just you figuring it out for him.
You also both contrast really nicely, with him being upbeat and affectionate and with too much energy and really needs to sit the fuck down for a few seconds and you're more low energy chaotic but willing and interested in doing quite a lot.
@mllorei + Masamune (ikesen)
I LITERALLY COULDN'T THINK OF ANYONE BETTER FOR YOU I'M-
He's emotionally funky and needs something to stay grounded at all times to stop himself from doing something extremely dangerous impulsively and you're level headed enough to be able to do that. You're really good with words and always seen to be really good at emphasising with people on some level and you're really good at coming up with solutions to problems.
However, you're not opposed to having fun, especially with someone you care about, and are also smart in the kind of chaotic way.
You're really difficult to not be able to respect unless your ideals go directly against someone else's and you're just exactly the kind of person that would be really well suited for him because you're the perfect balance of what he needs in a person while simultaneously being able to stand your own ground and not make other people the reason that you change.
@maries-gallery + Edgar (ikerev)
He's secretive as hell, needs to take a second to bring himself back to reality, and sit down and have a nice cup of tea where the world can't touch him for a little while, please.
Your intelligence is definitely a big part of why I think the two of you would be so well suited for each other since he's also intelligent and needs someone to be able to mentally stimulate him and you seem to enjoy the same so you both have common ground to bond in that regard. There's also your strong ideals and how they go really well hand in hand with his own and it also builds a point for him to respect you.
You're empathetic while simultaneously humorous which is a vibe that goes well with him because that's the kind of person he needs to be able to keep together. Despite his secrets, he's also the kind of person who would be able to keep up with you and suit your emotional needs without making it a one sided kind of relationship.
@anonymousgeekhere + Mitsunari (ikevamp)
My sweet boy, I can't really be rude about him other than the fact that he's about as dense as a fucking rock and horrible at taking care of himself.
You're really caring, you're basically my big sister, and you're the kind of person that would be really healthy for Mitsunari to like,,, keep him from accidentally dying like you do with me and the rest of your moots. His incorporation into your life would also act as a pretty good incentive for you to take better care of yourself too which is definitely a bonus.
He's really sweet and one of the most doting people ever and it's really hard to ever feel insecure around him because he is unable to see anything that you may see about yourself as an imperfection as anything less than an addition to why you're wonderful. He's a little clumsy with words sometimes and lacks common sense at times too but it would be a really sweet dynamic.
@greek-myth-bitch + Napoleon (ikevamp)
I have never talked to you directly but the two of you just seem to work in my head. You've got the chaotic energy and the drive. like, he's be lowkey scared of you to start with because your energy is so new to him.
Like, you're over here yelling about chaos and arson and he's just kind of in the middle of it all not really knowing what to do but low energy enough at times to pull you down with him and high energy enough at times to just bounce around with you. Maybe not murder though.
I can probably make a better judgement if I talk to you more but your energies just go really well with each other from my view point <3
@mcofthemansion + Arthur (ikevamp)
Another one getting their fave-
You and Arthur would just be so well suited to each other. He's so starved of genuine affection starved and swimming in self doubt and loathing that he would rather never face but has to eventually because he didn't learn anything from the characters that he wrote about and you're sweet enough as to be able to make him realise that working through it is easier that ignoring it in the long term.
You're both affectionate and vibe with each other's energies because they just work with how caring you are and how honest he can be when he isn't desperate to put on a front for other people.
Your honesty balances out his obsessive need to constantly cover up and his general typically upbeat (?) attitude is also a perfect remedy for whenever you're feeling particularly low because he's definitely no amateur with words and is more than willing to keep you company whenever you would ask.
@legalize-arson + Mitsuhide (ikesen)
Okay, here me out. While the two of you would definitely start off really rocky because he's insufferable and a tease and you're very stubborn and sensitive at times so you kind of wouldn't mix at the beginning but you would come to.
While he can seem to be insensitive at the beginning, especially when he isn't obligated to openly display that he cares, he's surprisingly easy to get along with in your case because he matches your habit of liking to tease bully people and is also really intelligent. Academically and generally intelligent. Not emotionally intelligent.
He's really good with words and is really good with picking up on people's feelings other than his own and would be able to tell when you're feeling low and don't particularly want to tell anyone and is subtle enough to be able to do what he can to help you without treating you like anything is wrong or coddling you like anything it wrong. You're also aware of what you feel to the point that it would simultaneously rub off on him from seeing how you react to your own feelings when now restricted.
@yanderepuck + Leonardo (ikevamp)
You, Nori and Lorei have such good taste as to who would suit you best wtf, I can't think of anything better for you guys other than people you already like.
He's lazy as fuck and needs to understand that he can't stop every bad thing from happening in the world but also really creative and supportive of just about anyone's ideas so he's always gonna be down for supporting your career and looking at any designs you want him to look at. He also has no qualms pulling you down for a nap at random times because really you need it because you can't panic when you're asleep.
He's got a lot of experience so he's be really good with helping you work through most things in any way that he can and does it in a way that doesn't feel demeaning but he'll definitely coddle you. You're the kind of person that would simply suit him and his life style because you definitely need the break and he's one to give you one and you also need the mood uplifting which he will give you whenever you want.
Youre also the kind of person who has dealt with their own fair share of troubles and by no means are naive so you're the kind of person that would be able to putt him out of his kind of fixed mindset so he can realise that, nothing is permanent unless a person chooses to do something about it.
@helloitsmedina + Dazai (ikevamp)
You're another person that I haven't really managed to talk to much but you give me a calm ish kind of chaotic energy. Like, you seem to have a tendency to gravitate towards more chaotic individuals while simultaneously having a somewhat lazy kind of chaotic energy yourself.
While Dazai in all his strange self-depreciating energy is probably more one to need to stay grounded, I feel like someone who's more flowy and adaptable would also work really well with him because you seem like someone that's willing to do quite a lot but to a certain extent. That's the kind of stuff that Dazai needs because, while someone needs to deter him from any more ridiculous stunts like stealing chickens, he'd benefit from having someone that will agree to some of his whims because he isn't really one to be tied down.
You also seem to appreciate the quieter moments as well which Dazai isn't unknown to have along side his own deeper understanding of people to an extent which suits the kind of open-ish and empathetic vibe I get from you.
@ my moots, if you would also like me to add you to this, literally just tell me, I can do this for days and it's a lot of fun <3

hello ! i was actually thinking of writing this myself, but i’m not too strong of a writer and i really like your writing, so i figured why not send in a submission—can i request venti and diluc with an emotionally sensitive reader and they do something to make them upset (for ex venti could pull a prank on the reader and make them seriously worried! and avoid them for a couple of days? what would they do to try to win back their partner?
Aww thank you so much! You’re so sweet!! I hope you like it🥺💖
Susceptible 
Tumblr media
Venti can be really dense sometimes. He doesn’t mean to be, but nobody chooses to be an idiot.
The first time he pranked you was when he pretended he was going to leave for a bit. “Archon duties” he claimed as he gave you a kiss on the forehead.
Immediately, you burst into tears and he ended his prank right then and there. He took you into his arms, apologizing profusely for his insensitive prank.
You gave him dry answers until he took the hint that you wanted him gone. So, he left and after that, you did your best to avoid him for the next three days.
No matter what Venti did, you somehow always managed to give him the slip again. He finally managed to catch you one day and demand what happened. You told him about how sensitive you get and he apologized again.
He spent the entire day as your personal assistant. You got a god at your mercy, whatcha gonna do?
Tumblr media
Diluc’s uhh… a little rough. He doesn’t mean to be, it just slips out. He’s pretty strict too and not as dense as Venti, but he could be better.
One night, you two were talking at the bar where he was working. You wanted to spend some time with him and it was fine.
Then you’d asked if you could come with him on one of his adventures. He said no, rather strictly. You didn’t want to be weak so you asked a little before he said no in a more demanding tone.
You immediately felt the sting in your chest and Diluc could see it on your face. He’d hurt your feelings. He tried to apologize, but you’d sprint out of the bar before he could stop you.
Since it was late at night, he dropped everything and ran after you. Unfortunately, you were too fast and were gone before he could stop you. 
He spent the night searching but wasn’t able to find anything. The next day he went to your house and tried to talk to you, but you weren’t there. He found out from a mutual friend you were avoiding him.
He decided to leave you for a couple of days before finding you again. He was no longer upset or angry at you for running off in the middle of the night, but instead, he wanted to know why you wouldn’t talk to him.
You finally explained what had happened and he profusely apologized for coming off harsh. He just really loves you and worries for you, the last thing he’d want is for something to happen to you. You also apologized for running off and scaring him.
He makes it up to you by taking you on that adventure and doing whatever you wanted the entire day the next day.

TodoBaku Headcanons because I’m gay and this is my comfort ship
I feel sad! Anyway, yeah. I like Kiribaku. I’m not gonna start with BakuDeku because of how much it pisses me off and I’m to tired to rant. Another day.
Also TodoDeku and KiriBaku are equally valid because I love them. It’s just this is my comfort ship and I love it.
Though it’s weird because I have no particular attachment to Baku or Shoto since Baku I hate him but love writing him and I’m indifferent to Shoto. Oh well.
Some tw’s for mentions of abuse and mental health and trans-ness
Anyway here’s why my ship is superior you fucks.
Love you and you’re amazing!!
TodoBaku Headcanons
Tumblr media
Alright
So, I headcanon that Mitsuki, while not abusive, did deny Bakugo’s emotional development and only either crushed or raised his ego depending on her mood and his brattiness
Anyway, Bakugo is emotionally constipated and doesn’t know how to handle or comprehend his own emotions so they turn to anger as that’s how he observed his mother and his dad tried to reach out but he’s “weak” in the eyes of Bakugo
Don’t deny your emotional development kids. It’s very important.
And we all know that Shoto is learning to comprehend emotions and becoming much more open
I see these two getting together after graduation or in their third year due to Bakugo calming down finally and not abusing Deku (because that’s what he does. Though the show will deny it. And so will fans.)
And also Shoto will finally learn that yeah, it’s ok to hate your dad just don’t take it to extremes
Emotions are valid. Actions are not
This is the lesson of these two learn before getting together and still learn, especially Bakugo. The slow idiot.
But after they learn and still learn to work through emotions
Bakugo is still angy tsundere
His sarcasm often goes over Shoto’s head so he takes it to literally.
Bakugo finds this cutely frustrating
Shoto is extremely blunt, and since Bakugo is a disaster, it often gets Bakugo flustered
Bakugo finds this just frustrating
So, he just learns to be more careful with his wording since he made Shoto cry once and he felt bad
Bakugo will never admit he cares for Shoto, at least in public
Bakugo is rare to say “I love you”
Bakugo expresses his love through actions like letting Shoto touch him or touching Shoto and smiling around him
Shoto shows it through words
Shoto often does things without asking Bakugo, but does consider Bakugo... sometimes...
Like that one time Shoto tried to break up with Bakugo because Bakugo didn’t reply to Shoto’s overly dramatic confession of love on Valentine’s Day
Bakugo screamed at Shoto that day. A lot.
See, Bakugo won’t get into a relationship unless he 100% trusts and respects you
He did to Shoto. And he felt as if he betrayed him
Granted, Bakugo didn’t go 100% at first, especially before coming out to Shoto about being trans/ace
So, Shoto felt the distance and Bakugo keeping him at arms distance
It hurt them both
But, it got better with time
Bakugo was a lot more open with Shoto after he came out
And... Shoto was open from the beginning
Boy doesn’t know how to hide anything
Except... when Bakugo asks him too
He don’t like gettin yelled at
Bakugo absolutely loathes Endeavor
Wants to kill that flaming pile of garbage
Shoto has had to drag him away to prevent a murder
Multiple times mind you
Bakugo isn’t allowed in the Todoroki household anymore
I mean... Shoto wouldn’t mind the death of the man who abused him. But... it’s not very heroic
Speaking of his childhood, Shoto often has nightmares.
So it became a common occurrence for Bakugo to sleep in the same bed as Shoto to help him, even when they didn’t live together for the first few months after graduation
Shoto likes the cuddles... (and so does Baku)
Now, both are extremely clingy
Bakugo’s scared Shoto’s gonna leave him and is touched starved so he clings to Shoto at home
Shoto is also touch-starved to hell and wants physical contact outside of... y’know
And at first he was a bit scared of Bakugo’s touch since he thought it would be a lot rougher, like his dad
But Bakugo isn’t Endeavor. And, since he shows his love through actions but will never admit it aloud because pride, he’s extremely gentle with Shoto
And Shoto responds back with softness too
Although, for a long time, Bakugo wouldn’t allow Shoto to touch him in public which Shoto never knew why, but respected it
It was the homophobia thing, wasn’t it?
Exception to this is when Bakugo either initiates it, or Shoto is being jealous
And both get jealous extremely easily
With Bakugo it manifests itself if Shoto does anything that is interacting with anyone, especially guys
And with Shoto, he’s to dense to realize when someone is flirting. With either him or Bakugo
No Shoto gets jealous when someone gets to physically close to Bakugo
And with Bakugo, he responds with aggressive kissing, vague threats, and holding Shoto
With Shoto it’s a lot more casual but he can throw anyone off with one icy glare
(Bakugo may or may not really love that glare)
Like I’ve mentioned, Bakugo isn’t the one to say “I love you” not unless Shoto is having a hard time or it’s an anniversary of Valentine’s Day (and on the latter two occasions, it’s a very backwards kind of way. But Shoto finds it endearing)
Bakugo is absolute sub to Shoto (no I won’t go into nsfw you pervs. Not this time anyway.)
But either way, he will usually submit to Shoto’s will.
Mind you, he does this willingly since he can bite back. And he does.
But, he is overdramatic in his complaints. He knows he likes it. And he hates that
“Goddamn Icyhot... making me do *blank*” is a common complaint, mostly with cuddles
Also side note
Cuddles.
CUDDLES
CUDDLES
Cuddles or you’ll leave Shoto sad!

OKAY i wasn’t initially going to do this meme bc everyone and their mother was already doing the same ships i have and i didn’t wanna be annoying, but then i woke up to @katzkinder telling me to do gluttony pair and it broke me
LISTEN . LISTEN. I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS ABOUT THEM the tension. the repressed feelings. the not-quite-friends-with-benefits-bc-they-care-about-each-other. gluttony pair has EVERYTHING
some things i want to expand upon:
they’re emotionally constipated motherfuckers but damnit if they aren’t close. its something they can’t help, a natural attraction that keeps them together. i think... even if they’re angry, even if they’re scared or frustrated, they still find their way back to each other. ildio doesn’t really understand why, because he’s never had an eve that he’s cared about; if you asked him, he probably wouldn’t even agree with the idea that he cares about nicco as much as he does. it was really a subconscious thing.
because of the above, this is also why pda and s*x is important between them. (censoring bc tumblr blahhh) though casual at first, it really does become one of the few really intimate things they like to share. i don’t think they’re a pairing that’s as close and... domestic as, say, sloth pair. but i do love the idea of them being so subconsciously attached to each other that it just sort of... happens. and they accept it. not without nicco being an awkward mess at first
“no real confession” is just as it sounds! i think because they’re both 1. emotionally weird, and 2. they just naturally let things happen, its just. not something they really have to talk about? especially because they both think the opposite of reality. nicco thinks ildio is tired of him and his advances, bc nicco actually really likes being his partner and wants to get to know him on a deeper level! and ildio thinks he thinks of him as just another eve. in reality, he doesn’t even realize how close he’s let himself get to the guy. he’s also just... very dense. *pats ildio’s head*
this got out of hand . is this comprehensible
these are just my hcs ofc lmao others are allowed to think otherwise! i just really love the homoerotic tension between them bc GOD are they idiots that don’t know how to be close to other human beings. I LOVE THEMMMM
also will definitely be writing them again very soon thenks
