Astarion

Astarion: Oh good, puns. Because clowns aren't enough of a horror already.

Player: You love the spotlight, don't you, Astarion? Here's your big chance. ['Astarion -1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minsc 2', 'Halsin 1']

Astarion: What? No. Don't you dare. This isn't funny.

Clown: Ooof - my heart! The enthusiasm is… too much! Now, up, up - double sharp! Or poor Buddy will think you don't like him. Right there - perfect!

Player: Go on, Astarion! ['Astarion -1', 'Gale 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 2', 'Halsin 1']

Astarion: Of course, what fun! I'm going to fucking kill you.

Gale

Gale: Hmm. Not to my taste, but I'll take a clown over some hack magician pulling peonies from his breeches.

Player: Gale, you're good at tricks, right? Up you go. ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Gale: Truly? I might as well go mount the gallows.

Player: Go on, Gale! ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Gale -1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Gale: You truly are testing the patience of a man who could level a city if he wished, you know.

Shadowheart

Shadowheart: Gods, I hate clowns. I'm not even sure clowns like clowns.

Player: I think my friend Shadowheart will make a far better assistant.['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 2', 'Shadowheart -1', 'Gale 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Shadowheart: Are you quite sure you have a friend called Shadowheart? Not an enemy?

Player: Go on, Shadowheart! ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 2', 'Shadowheart -1', 'Gale 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Shadowheart: I'd advise you find someone to taste your food from now on.

Karlach

Karlach: Oof. No. Sorry Dribbles.

Player: Go on, Karlach, up you go. ['Astarion 1', 'Gale 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 2', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Halsin 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Karlach: Hang on now, soldier, I'm not paying for your sins.

Player: Go on, Karlach! ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 2', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Karlach: This had better be violent, sexy, or both.

Lae'zel

Lae'zel: Can we not find a more pleasant amusement? Gouging out our own eyeballs, perhaps?

Player: This is your time to shine, Lae'zel - up you go. ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel -1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 2', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Lae'zel: Tsk'va. You can't be serious.

Clown: Ooof - my heart! The enthusiasm is… too much! Now, up, up - double sharp! Or poor Buddy will think you don't like him. Right there - perfect!

Player: Go on, Lae'zel! ['Lae'zel -1', 'Astarion 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 2', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Lae'zel: Chk. And here I thought ceremorphosis was the ultimate torment.

Halsin

Halsin: Why is that daubed fellow being forced before a crowd like so? Is he being punished? Ritualised humiliation?

Player: Lend him a hand, Halsin. ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1']

Halsin: The local customs are... veiled to me. Are you sure this is wise?

Player: Go on, Halsin! ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Gale 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Halsin: Very well... Oak Father, shield me in the trials to come.

Wyll

Wyll: Between you and me, I love a good clown - and Dribbles is the best.

Player: I think this is a job for the Blade of Frontiers, don't you, Wyll? ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Karlach 2', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Wyll: I'm no so sure...

Player: Go on, Wyll! ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 2', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Wyll: Well - if you insist.

Jaheira

Jaheira: Heh. What? Shut up.

Player: Well, Jaheira? Care to make your debut? ['Lae'zel 1', 'Astarion 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 2', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Jaheira: You think I haven't mounted a stage before? Though be warned, clown - if you mean to throw knives, I will throw them back.

Player: All hail the High Harper! ['Astarion 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Gale 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira -1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Jaheira: You understand the nature of a secret organisation, yes?

Minsc

Minsc: Heh. HEH. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Player: Minsc would be honoured. ['Astarion 2', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Minsc: Honoured is Minsc! But be warned, jester - none may juggle my hamster but me.

Player: Go on, Minsc! ['Astarion 2', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Halsin 1']

Minsc: On closer inspection, Boo, this clown does not much look like the jolly sort...

Minthara

Nightwarden Minthara: Just give the word, and I will kill the clown. We would be praised as heroes.

Player: My good friend Minthara is the funniest person I know. ['Lae'zel 1', 'Astarion 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Minthara -1', 'Halsin 1']

Nightwarden Minthara: Am I indeed? Perhaps I will tell my favourite joke. It is about you, bleeding to death.

Player: Go, Minthara! Tell the one about the man who married a drider! ['Astarion 1', 'Gale 1', 'Shadowheart 1', 'Wyll 1', 'Lae'zel 1', 'Karlach 1', 'Jaheira 1', 'Minthara 1', 'Minsc 1', 'Halsin 1']

Nightwarden Minthara: It was a beautiful webbing.

Six Sentence Sunday

Hey babes I hope everyone's having a good Sunday. Thanks for all the tags! I'm about to go peruse all of your lovely offerings.

I have been lazy all weekend but I am leisurely working on a lil sumptin sumptin. Got this idea for a (hopefully ...) one-shot about Simon and Baz being uni roommates and hooking up at parties. Another lil Normal 'sex to feelings' thingy. Somehow probably hornier than Someone Wicked LOL. I dunno, it'll probably end up soft as fuck too. Lets have realistic expectations.

Snow’s practically melting into me, his chest slotted with mine as he crowds me up against the door in the back of this cramped cab. The most violent part of it is the way his heart hammers against my sternum, the way it ricochets through me like lightning searching for ground. His fingers thread too gently through the hair at the nape of my neck, palm molding to its shape, cradling me close. He opens my mouth beneath his with alarming and precise carefulness. It’s got to be the sluggish haze of alcohol making him this soft, this pliant and—God help me—sweet. I would never have allowed myself such a fantasy. Even if I thought it at all possible. It would have fucking ruined me, which this is absolutely sure to do. He hates me. This changes nothing.

It's based on the song Sober by Rose Betts. Link and tags below the cut.

Before I Leave You (Pt.42)

(Sneak Peak!)(Omegaverse au, Mafia au, Bts x Reader)

Summary: Tae has a bad dysphoria day, luckily she has you and Hobi to help take her mind off of it.

Tags: Fluff, hurt/comfort, Dysphoria, Vhope x reader, Trans character's, Trans! taehyung slow burn, Anxiety, melancholy, Brief mentions of Eating disorders, Denial, Unrequited feelings

W/c: 7.5k

A/n: Ah this is a chapter that i really enjoyed writing <3 this kinda snuck up on me, but i hope everyone will enjoy this little perfect nugget of a chapter <3 happy halloween!

Chapter 42: Hobi’s Treasures (Sneak Peak)

“I should have gotten you peonies or maybe roses, but I looked at these and I thought-” Hobi breaks off, sitting down carefully so as not to wake you. Still asleep and oblivious to the shift in the air. “I thought you might want to figure out your favorite flower.” Tae’s smile is tentative but genuine, and she holds them better to her chest taking care not to crush them but still holding them like they might impart some beauty onto her.

“You mean you’re gonna give me flowers again?”

Hobi holds Tae's hand, loosely circling the bouquet, voice hushed and throaty in the quiet. “Aren't boyfriends supposed to buy their girlfriends flowers without them having to ask?”

Tae blinks quickly, and she shuffles, pulling herself closer to Hobi after a moment of still reverence. How is it, that after so many years of love, the other alpha always manages to surprise her? what surprises her more is the capacity of her heart to fall more in love. Even like this, even when it hurts.

The other alpha pulls her head to rest against his shoulder, until every breath tastes like caramel muskiness. Tae looks like this house is breaking her, the dysphoria rocks through her so violently that she shakes while Hobi holds her. The world girlfriend, the word she’s always wanted to be called, now akin to a curse. At least today.

Tae hopes Hobi will call her that again on a day when she’s not feeling so…imperfect, so undeserving of it.

Tae shivers like her body doesn’t fit her soul, like theres something in her trying to escape. Does she need to go somewhere else tonight? Is it this house or just her body that’s crushing her right now? Hobi hates tiptoeing around the issue. Dysphoria is heavy, is this what it looks like? Is this what the pack has to fear going forward?

Hobi cups Tae’s cheek, and she leans into it. “Can I steal you away for a bit? like some princess in a castle? Can we go somewhere, Tae? I'm worried about you." Hobi pauses and hesitates, but honesty has always been easy when it comes to Tae.

"I'm worried you want to go back to when we didn’t know.”

Coming Sunday Oct 30th at 5pm EST (Time Zone Adjustments Below)

𝟑-𝟓 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐌𝐔𝐒𝐄 𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐁𝐄 𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐅𝐈𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐘.

𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐒:

Sky blue

Pink

Magenta

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐒:

Floral - Just like her namesake, Botan often carries the smell of fresh peonies, roses and hints of raspberries, fresh and light.

Water - Spending so much time traversing the River Styx has left Botan with a slight water scent, like standing on the edge of a wild river.

Incense - Botan works guiding the dead from her assigned district in Japan, where it's traditional for mourners to leave incense as offerings to the dead. Spirit World is similarly cloaked in smoke and it frequently lingers on it's residents.

𝐅𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐎𝐍:

Traditional clothing is usual for shinigami's wardrobe and has been for hundreds of years and Botan rather likes it. Her pink kimono is her favorite but she has several in a variety of soft colors and patterns. She finds them comfortable and cute.

Botan does like fashion and wearing cute outfits. In her personal life, she likes bright colored tops and skinny jeans. Being around Team Urameshi means she often has to dress practically but that doesn't mean she can't look nice.

She has a lot of hair scrunchies to match her outfits.

𝐎𝐁𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐒:

Her oar - whether it's full sized or shrunk down in her pocket.

Scrunchies & hair ties - If it's not in her hair, it's around her wrist and she always carries a spare. She does have a habit of leaving them just about anywhere so don't be surprised if you find one after she's left.

Spirit book - it's a small pocket journal that receives her orders from Spirit World and any information about her pick ups.

Omamori - A yakuyoke (厄除) talisman to ward against evil and back luck. It helps to protect her from vengeful spirits or violent ghosts. It's tucked into her shirt, against her heart.

𝐁𝐎𝐃𝐘 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐆𝐄:

She wears her heart on her sleeve, a total open book

Very expressive when excited, rocking or bouncing on her toes, talking with her hands, leaning toward you.

Tends to fidget and play with her hair when nervous or stressed. Tears up easy.

Touchy! She'll hug you or shove you depending on her mood. Tends to hit your arm excitedly or grab you when happy.

𝐀𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐒:

A private flower garden, white lattice fences and a small picnic setting, butterflies and bees moving around

Sitting riverside, the water churning wildly at your feet, the sound is so loud it drowns out your thoughts and leaves you feeling at ease. It's too wide to cross and too strong to swim, but it's beautiful and seems to stretch on forever.

A cemetery in the day, meticulously kept, each grave laid with offerings. There are families picnicking together, laughing at warm memories.

A summer festival, everyone is dressed up and having fun, there are fireworks starting soon.

Asch w/ daisy, marigold, purple hyacinth and peony pls

(daisy done!)

Asch Albright:

🌻marigold: how jealous do they get? how do they react when they get jealous?

Asch is pretty possessive. If he thinks someone is so much looking in your direction sideways he’s already prepared to curse them out, telling them to say in their loser lane and that they’d never stand a chance against him in a million years. You do wish he’d showboat less as he didn’t have to show off his wealth or strength to you, you were already dating him and were very aware of both of those qualities. He can be sparked to violence if his jealousy causes others to disparage you as ‘not that great’ and he’ll fiercely defend you much to your chagrin, but you do appreciate that your boyfriend thought so highly of you.

🌻peony: how do they get their s/o to blush? how does their s/o make them blush?

If you call him cute or point out how thoughtful he’s being, he’ll get a little flustered and tell you to just not mention it. You think it’s a big deal when Asch started to work on his empathy skills and showed that he did have at least one good bone in his body, as much as he tried to prove otherwise. It particularly made your heart flutter to see him interacting positively with children, and mentioning having a family of any sort at some point in the future has his brain going a mile a minute even as he embarrassedly told you not to talk about things like that yet.

Asch is a very touchy man so it’s no wonder you get flustered when his strong grip is on your waist or hips; it felt like a way of demanding your attention without being too harsh, which his words tended to be. The way he delivered his ‘I love yous’ and ‘of course you’re important to me, idiot’ was also a factor to your flushed expression, thinking that you were happy he could be honest with you even if it was said in such a ‘you should already know this’ sort of tone.

🌻purple hyacinth: how would they react if their s/o died?

All he can think about is how weak he is. He cursed himself, over and over, throwing himself into training until his bones were aching and his fists were bleeding. All of this working out still doesn’t get out his frustration or pent-up anger, his temper getting worse, his violent tendencies causing him to strike out again after he had done so much to grow. It was like his progress was going backwards but he didn’t give a shit, not until sense is kicked into him that this is never the future you would want for him. He even cursed you a little in the end, wanting to know why you pushed into his life just to leave him with a crumbling heart that had no hopes of being whole again.

HIII THISIS ME FORMALLY ASKING ABOUT BG3 AND YOUR TAVS AND WHATNOT... OR ANYTHING REALLY !! IVE BEEN MEANING TO ASK BUT IW AS SOSO SCARED. FOR SOME REASON. (AND IF YOU ALREADY MADE A POST SOSORRY MY NOTIFS ARE ALL FUCKED UP AND WHATNOT YOU KNOW HOW IT IS)

HI. I AM MAKING THIS POST NOW I KNOW I SAID I’D MAKE IT EARLIER AND I REALLY WANTSD TO BUT. I HAVE BEEN SO SO BUSY AND ALSO THERE JS THE BURNOUT. YOU KNOW HOW IT IS. Anyway thank you for asking it finally gave me the kick in the butt I needed to Make The Post!! Yippie! Under the cut bcs of length etc etc <3

Okay so first is my main girl Peony!! She’s my durge and I love her <3!!

Some info:

She/it. Kind of a girl but not really. Transfem <3

Asmodeus tiefling and a war cleric of Tiamat!

Using her to romance Astarion

She’s super pink because I love pink and it’s my favorite color. Yes it’s self indulgent no I don’t care. Heart <3

Similarly, her name is Peony because peonies are pink and I like them. Heart x2 <3

Aside from that, though, the main inspiration behind her design is that I love love love how pink and red are both Valentine’s Day colors / “girly” colors and the colors most heavily associated with blood and guts and viscera. Wanted to play around with the idea of a character who is kind of the physical representation of that. Of the way pink and red are associated both with violence and with love and femininity. The duality of the heart as both a symbol of romance and as the thing that keeps your blood pumping etc etc

As such, she is very much the embodiment of that concept! At first glance, she’s very soft and sweet and feminine and doting, but her behavior is pretty much the antithesis of her appearance! She Is An Asshole. And a violent one at that! She has very little regard for what is good or right or just or moral, but she isn’t just out for what’s best for her either, she likes violence for the sake of violence! Even if causing it isn’t in her best interest

This doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have any kind of an interest in sex and romance and stuff tho. She does! The kinds of relationships that appeal to her are just a bit Fucked Up

Gets weird about the sight of guts and organs and blood and viscera, for example. Kind of girl who would be posting on tumblr about the inherent eroticism of cannibalism if tumblr existed in dnd

Annoys the rest of the party when she stops to examine and poke through the blood and guts of every corpse she passes. She’s not even LOOTING, she’s just Admiring, and everyone else can’t stand it (“let’s just get a damn move on already!”)

Also, I wanted to make her a war cleric of Tiamat *specifically* to further play into this concept. Like, everyone assumes clerics are good-aligned healers for the most part, so I wanted her to not reflect that AT ALL. She worships the living embodiment of avarice and hate and prays for MORE death and gore, not to heal it

In terms of backstory, I don’t have it Super figured out, but I imagine that she grew up in the hells amongst the large scale suffering and violence there and began to resent life and goodness as a result. She also developed her Fixation with viscera as a fucked up coping mechanism. Can’t be traumatized by the blood and guts if you train yourself to like seeing them, after all

Beginning to worship Tiamat is definitely where she really started to REALLY go downhill, though. Devoting yourself to hatred and malice and war is bad for you, it turns out!

I imagine she started this worship as a second Fucked Up Coping Mechanism. If the world is going to be cruel no matter what you might as well embrace it and worship that cruelness, yeah? Make yourself a part of it. Can’t be the victim if you’re the perpetrator, and it’s every man for themselves after all

Is drawn to Astarion initially because he’s also mean and a bitch! Like he’s not an asshole in the exact same way as her but she likes his Vibe. Is DEFINITELY suspicious of him at first, though. She can pick up on the fact that he’s Hiding Something, even if she doesn’t know exactly what. She actually respects it though! Doesn’t mind someone with a couple secrets, and she’s got a few herself anyway

She IS nosy, though— like a massive gossip— so she definitely does dig deeper until she Figures It Out. Doesn’t ever bring it up because it’s good to have blackmail and she isn’t THAT fond of him yet but she Knows

When he tries to bite her she initially gets angry because she assumed he was trying to sneak up on her and kill her. Not because she was offended at the concept of someone plotting to murder her, though, but because she thinks that it’s cowardly to SNEAK UP on someone and then kill them. A real “fight me properly if you want me dead bitch!!” moment

Then she finds out that he just wanted her blood and very much just went “oh? Is that all?” about it. Like doesn’t even bat an eye in the slightest. What already being Weird about blood and viscera does to an mfer

After they start getting closer, I’d imagine that they both have an “oh I can make them so much worse” moment about the other. But it’s like multiplying two negatives and getting a positive and instead of making each other worse they actually end up making each other better! They both realize that maybe they Do care, maybe they Do want good things for the other (and therefore for themselves) and are both very pouty and bitchy about it at first

In terms of her relationships with the others, I’d imagine it varies! She likes Lae’zel almost as much as she likes Astarion, and they get along pretty well. She thinks Gale is so so boring and tries to avoid him at all costs. Wyll has good stories but he’s also a goody-two-shoes. At least he can give good advice for slaying demons, though. She thinks he’s meh, overall. She sees SO MUCH of herself in shadowheart (manipulated/groomed into serving an all powerful evil deity) and it makes her SO uncomfortable. She doesn’t want to admit that serving the literal personification of violence and hate is Bad For Her, even if she can see how bad serving Shar is for shadowheart. So she tends to avoid her to avoid that uncomfortable feeling you get when you recognize your suffering in another even when you don’t want to admit that you’re suffering at all. She also feels that Karlach is a goody-two-shoes (much like Wyll) but tieflings have to stick together. She’s biased towards her and likes her, overall. However, seeing someone who’s suffered to the degree you have still be kind when you’ve chosen to be cruel is a hard pill to swallow, and while there’s definitely some resentment there for that, by and large it just makes her want to be Better, even if she wont admit it

Aside from the Angst, I imagine that she does have hobbies and interests just like everyone else. She’s still a Person, after all

She likes flowers, and in a world where she can settle down and be happy I picture her being an avid gardener! In this same world, I think she could use her obsession with viscera in a productive way by becoming a butcher! In fact, she probably DOES become a butcher, after she settles down post game

Cares probably a bit too much about her appearance for someone who doesn’t really like people all that much

Physical touch is her love language! She’s bad with words and doesn’t know how to pick gifts, quality time feels awkward when you haven’t yet learned how to act around people without assuming that they mean to do you harm (and that YOU mean to do THEM harm) and acts of service just aren’t her thing. But she sure as hell does know how to drape herself over you like a cat or hug you so tight you can’t breathe! Big on PDA. Of course, all of this happens after lots of discussion and boundary setting and Time, when it comes to Astarion specifically

Speaking of PDA, Karlach’s warm hugs (post engine fix) are her favorite :)

Predictably, she’s a carnivore who loves to eat meat. For her, the rarer the better (much to the disgust of her campmates and especially Gale, who won’t cook raw food, no matter how much she asks)

Probably takes up wood carving at some point as a more Productive coping mechanism, just so she can do something with her hands and a knife that isn’t violent. Her favorite things to carve are bunnies <3 (they’re her favorite animal)

Speaking of bunnies, she’d probably get a pet rabbit postgame as she learns to trust herself with delicate, vulnerable things again. It’d be a white one, and she’d name it Sugar, I think :)

Okay I think I will shut up now. I have thought literally SO MUCH about her and I’ve already written a barely coherent essay full of random stuff but!! There is still more in my brain. I will maybe talk about Seraph later, but this is already an essay so I’m leaving it at that! Thanks again Kosmo for asking and I’m so sorry about the length of this half incoherent ramble!!!

How do you think a meeting between Raihan and Ingo and Rowan would go when TA!Ash brings his boyfriend home to meet his parental figures?

Ash and Raihan aren’t exclusive in the ta!au as their jobs keep each other apart and add a lot of stress into their life, Ash also doesn’t trust the general human population to fully give himself over to one person that a relationship requires and doesn’t trust himself not to hurt the other if he and his significant other get into an argument. They do naturally gravitate and there’s something defiantly there that everyone can see but both agree not to peruse it.

It drives Rowan insane because he fully believes Ash would be able to regulate his violent tendencies but doesn’t really push it with Ash as the kid is already scared of relationship commitment. So he just gripes about it towards Ingo who stays away from those kinds of problem with a twenty yard pole, complexity ignoring how he’s the exact same but with Gary. Dawn is the only emotionally stable child of theirs and that’s why she has Zoey.

Raihan doesn’t mind. He is a romantic at heart built Ash allows him to woo him off his feat whenever their together and they can both pretend that this is their normal, even if it’s just for a measly hour or two. It also allows him to filter between Piers and Geordie. Ash doesn’t ask what the fuck is up with their weird trio and Raihan doesn’t ask about Ash’s other lovers that he knows are scattered around the damn world.

But Ash does bring Raihan home when he’s in Sinnoh and close by when Ash returns back from either a vaca from the school or during one of the two breaks he has between traveling. Rowan likes him, Raihan is a sturdy young man and reminds him almost of a navy recruit that was on his last battalion-Peony was his name, if Rowan remembers correctly-and takes no shit. Evident when he matches Gary’s barb-wired comment step for step. Ingo adores him and starts to communicate with the man outside of Ash. It’s sparse texting, really just checking in on each other at least twice a month, but it’s the most attention any kind of father figure had given Raihan in the past couple of years. Excluding Kabu since thats his coworker and the man is a grandpa.

Can I ask about the lust peeps with someone that loves sweetly?

They love to cuddle up to their datemate, they give gifts and light kisses and touches. Holds hands a lot and tells them how much they love them often.

It's clear how much they love the lust peeps and it's a wholesome type of love :)

For Charm, Peony, and Garnet

I am so weak for wholesome love...

✦ Charm: In the beginning, all this wholesome attention made Charm feel quite… strange. He wasn’t sure how to react, didn’t know how to reciprocate without making it sexual, and so, in the beginning, he felt somewhat awkward about it, though he’d practiced healthy communication ever since he arrived at the surface, and so he told you about his struggles. You were understanding, of course you were, he doesn’t know why he thought otherwise… All right, he’d been afraid that you’d leave him. It didn’t make sense, but the fear had still been there, but as you reassured him that you would take it slow for him… Well, the tears came soon after.

With time, he came to appreciate the sweet love you gave him. He wouldn’t dare to admit that he ever started to feel, well, dependent on it, but your love is so gentle, so precious and lovely… He adores you so much. And so, eventually, he will eagerly return your affection; tenfold. There isn’t a moment where he doesn’t want to touch you, kiss you, hold your hand, and nuzzle his skull against your head. You’ve created an itch within him that only your loving touches can satiate, so he hopes you’re prepared for a loving attack, for here he comes — kisses and tickles for you!

✦ Peony: Yes, yes, YES! This is all Peony has ever wanted, and more! You couldn’t possibly understand how much he loves this— no, scratch that, he will tell you how much he loves this; everyday, all day, if you’ll allow him. Cuddles and kisses will be of an abundance when you’re together with him, though, he also grows to share tender moments where he just wants to caress your cheek, hold your hand, and rest his forehead against your own as he looks into your eyes— those beautiful, wonderful eyes of yours, always so full of starlight and gleam.

Has he mentioned that he will absolutely spoil you? For he will. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been together, Peony will take you on dates at least once a week, and preferably, they must be outside or near a gentle light source, for he wants to see the way you shine in the golden light; like a perfect angel. Perhaps you are one in disguise… He might just have to ask you.

✦ Garnet: It took a long time, longer than you thought, but eventually, you managed to help Garnet lower his walls and open more up. It took a lot of work, but it was more than worth it, for beneath the unnerving smile, the strong perfume, the strange comments, and the sometimes-violent outbursts, you found someone hurt, and so, so tired. Your gentle love makes Garnet feel like he’s finally been released from the depths of a great mountain, the crushing rock slowly taken off him. He feels light, dizzy, and disoriented, but as you continue to light up his darkened path, he cannot help but seek out your warmth for greater comfort.

He might be a very sexually oriented person, but that doesn’t mean he is incapable of being sweet, too. He will hold you, cradle your hands and kiss your cheek, and often he’ll find himself pulling you in for closer cuddles, as he wants to be as near to that beating heart of yours as humanly (or monsterly) possible. He will bake to you, too. Did you know that he’s both a great cook, and quite a good baker? Well, now you will know. He doesn’t have much of an appetite himself, but he’ll be delighted if you ate whatever he cooked or baked for you.

Hi Alpha Mama! I would like to announce to you it’s been officially over 2 years and a week from this day since I’ve adopted Asher and was Gifted Dancer! So I’m doing a nice big update on all my Alpha Tales to celebrate! 💛💛💛💛💛💛Asher(Beta G) and Pumkin have of course had their children! 2 Girls and a Boy, Valencia Lottia and Barrister! All coffee themed names lol! 💛Dancer(Paris) has grown so much and has joined a pack I like to call ‘The Herd’ and has made great friends with my Overtale Frisk(Spring) and Chara(Clover) he still enjoys visiting Asher a lot and the babies! 💛Poppy, Dahlia, and Peony have been enjoying the gardens and surprisingly have been attempting to hunt down a few things when they get to visit my shop- luckily they aren’t hunting bitties- I would much rather them have a grass hopper or a mouse then a bitty! Though I check them each time after I find they catch something- 💛Tsu’tey (Alpha OS) has settled and taken in Avi (Tilli NCG) as well as Api and Dutch(Dreamy’s Asgor) and their little ones as well as Chai(Milk Beta) Lullaby(Gentle Singing) Sleepy Wave(Great Stretch) and LazyTide(Great Bite) 💛 Ralu(Alpha P.) has settled in with Darling(BloodMoon) Amy(Omega OS) Atticus (Akita Boy) Miy(Dreamy) and Ati(Tilli) and a Skribbity has shown interest but I don’t know if they will attempt to join or just make friends- 💛 Valor (Alpha Sans) has actually taken great interest in LavaCake!(Helly) which I find interesting but he has also settled down with Mocha and Puddin (Omega P and S) so far he has been very gentle and careful with them which is really nice since I had a bit of worry since he’s more ‘rough’ if I remember correctly- 💛Rex(MK) has been wandering the territory with Prancer(Asriel) and both have been mostly enjoying their time together! 💛 Princess(BabyO OS) and Echidna are very happy! She keeps her mama nice and distracted from the others! Spressar(Gem) and Ribbon have been mostly doing their own things enjoying their own territories, though I feel like they could use a bit more interactive moments with the others- but I won’t push them- when their ready they will be ready- 💛 I am very pleased to say Piri (Pepper) as officially gotten with Malin!(Milkyway) they have been courting each other for a bit and it’s really freaking sweet!!! 💛 Tahitian has been wandering a bit as well but she mostly likes to stick to Aaron(Care Taker) who has been helping her get around a bit! She has been very open just like the many others with her! And has quickly started up friendships with many of Aaron’s little hitch hikers who like to follow us around or use us for a ride when lazy ^^’ that should be all of them-! It’s been an amazing time!

AlphaMama: Ohhhh that's really awesome! Thank you so much for giving me this update! I love to know how my bitties are doing around the world and their new lives!

💛Asher and Pumpkin are doing really amazing! The coffee touch is adorable! XD I'm glad Dancer have found their place among all of them! He is a brilliant one!

💛Poppy, Dahlia, and Peony are cute but can get really sneak ones when it comes to hunting, attention is really needed! I could recommend a little more variation of bugs for them to catch, like cockroaches for more fat nutrients, grubs are good too!

💛Tsu’tey (Alpha OS) can be a stubborn one sometimes, but has a really big heart~! ^w^ This is great!

💛That's a good size of the pack for Ralu(Alpha P.) to settle in, in general, they can get pretty violent and snap a lot, but with patience, they can become friendly enough to don't bite off any piece of the others ^w^ The Skribbity probably will come with a decision in a few days of searching around the packs.

💛Valor (Alpha Sans) can be really tiny but his bite is fierce for sure, but you can rest at ease, it's almost beyond a crime/taboo for an alpha (on my alphatale) to hurt omegas, and Alpha-Sans are really polite on this matter on regular cases.

💛💛It's so good to hear they are doing so well! >W< and of course, give time to the time and the things will be going on their own pace... You're truly amazing and very kind to give me this update!! I hope all things keep going for the best and more lovely days/nights to come for you and all the little ones! 💛💛

Hiiiiii, i want to ask for a match up 🥺🥰💝

I'm an INFJ and my zodiac sign is scorpion.

I'm kinda competitive, in academic field. I mean i love my friends soooo much, but grade is my priority somehow. I love books and everything feminine. Pink is my love, and girly clothes is my addiction. I think flowers are beautiful, especially peonies.

I have some issues with my family but i still adore them. And i will fight whoever hurts my beloved. Like i not really strong but i can punch you at the face if you're mean to them.

Oh, i have a not so little secret. I have a tendency to fall for women or older men. I think everyone is pretty in their own ways and i hate body shaming or face shaming.

I consider myself a feminist. But i still want to be loved and treated like a little princess. Buuuuuuut, other days i want them to see me as a confident lady.

I want to pursue my education path and master some foreign language.

Thank you dear, and i'm sorry for my bad grammar. I'm not a good english user.

Have a nice day.💗

No, no you did perfect!! Thank you, baby!!

Doflamingo

As soon as you mentioned liking older men and having some family issues, you know I had to pull the Doffy card (lol). This man is the personification of the older man who has a young thing on his arm! You two are literally meant for each other; between the similar likes, supporting your found families, and the desire to be loved by each other.

He can be a bit temperamental, but ideally this man is nothing more than a hurt child trying to act tough. You just have to learn how to work his boundaries and walls in order to get in. Once you are in, you won’t be leaving anytime soon. Despite his bachelor life, he’s a love or die kind of man and will expect you to be just as loyal (even more).

Has no problem treating you like a little princess and calling you sweet pet names when he’s in a good mood. He likes your feisty side and finds it funny when you attack someone who harms your loved ones. Just make sure those fists never face him and you’ll be golden~!

Pudding

Pudding is another great match! She falls in love hard and seeing that you are against face shaming and body shaming, she truly believes she is beautiful in your eyes. She can be just as violent when it comes to protecting those she loves, so she is by your side when the going gets tough!

She can also be a princess, but she has no problem treating you like one, in actually she does that anyway. I can imagine you both in matching cute dresses just being the perfect couple that you are!

This lovely lady has a horrendous family, so knowing that you understand makes her feel more comfortable telling you about her issues. Totally doesn’t have fantasies of running away with you and just eloping, nah she will never admit that-

Stussy

Our last lovely lady! You might not think much of her, but she is a great candidate based off your personality type and values! We don’t know much about her past other than she was placed in the CP-9 just like the others. So I like to think she was an orphan of sorts and has her own family issues, so she understands what it means to feel out of place and will empathize with you!

This classy lady will also treat you with dignity and grace with no problem, as long as you do the same to her of course! I like to think she is also quite a feminist and has no problem fighting men, so you two will get along well!

Overall she is a great catch and you will win her heart slowly and steady! Once you do though, there is no turning back, she can be a bit possessive and loves only you!

HEADCANONS

She has two sons with her husband Zed: Marcus, who was an intentional child with the hope of saving her marriage, and Hayden, who was more of an accident. She loves both sons with her whole heart, of course, but at fourteen and ten respectively, they very much have their own fierce personalities far from her own grasp.

She has always admired antique jewelry and perfume vials - even if there is no longer any perfume in the vial, she enjoys collecting and displaying them in glass cases or bookshelves around her home.

When she was first married, Helena did take her husband’s surname - but after a few years of marriage, and the realization that they weren’t on the same page with their relationship, she abruptly changed her surname back to her maiden name. She still remains married to him for the sake of preserving her family…and maintaining her comfortable wealthy lifestyle, but she acknowledges the distance between them that she previously didn’t.

BIOGRAPHY

Born the second oldest in a family of five, Helena was never allowed the opportunity of her own childhood. Her father, a cruel man, demanded that his children be seen and not heard, props to support his own self interest to then be dismissed and unheard from again until he needed to assure others that he was a kind and proper family man. Behind closed doors, he was often vulgar and violent and enjoyed flexing his power against those smaller and weaker than himself. Helena would look to her mother for guidance and help, but she took to protecting and sheltering her youngest and smallest of her children while turning a blind eye toward the rest.

She and her elder sister had plans years in the making to take their younger brothers and free themselves from their fathers clutches - until their plans were turned around in a rather horrifying surprise. Their youngest brother, the only one their mother ever seemed to protect and show affection for, had risen up and taken it upon himself to kill their own father at barely sixteen. Helena had watched from a crack in the bathroom door, and witnessed their mother help cover up the crime. Relief, anger, fear…Helena experienced a swirl of emotions as she watched the cruelty of her brother be rewarded as her uncles and aunts began looking to him for guidance and leading the family.

With most of her life being focused on surviving rather than living, Helena had never considered the possibility of being in charge - although she hadn’t asked for it, she couldn’t comprehend why she and her elder sister had been skipped over - why had their youngest brother been more loved and favored by all who knew him?

Upon realizing for the first time that power would never be granted to her - that she would have to seize it herself - Helena decided for herself that she would rescue others from the same fate, the first being a family friend named Nora, who she had lost touch with in previous years. However, after mentioning Nora’s last known location to the wrong person, Helena caught word of a hunting expedition with the intent of dragging her from her home in The Wildwoods. It wasn’t the fate Helena had wanted for her friend - her desire was to liberate her from her seclusion. Instead, Helena was forced to hide with, and protect, Nora’s young daughter until the hunting party passed.

Guilt wracked Helena to her very core. How could she call herself powerful if she could do nothing to protect herself, her sister, or even her friend? She knew there had to be some way to atone for what she’d done - and while she kept her spill of secrets to herself, she made a point to care for Nora’s young daughter, Cerenia, in whatever ways she could. Spending days taking her to tutors and lessons turned into nights of reading her to sleep and staring dreamily into the man of the house’s eyes - Zed. A widower, Helena knew it best to keep her distance, but the air around him was irresistible. A stable figure who loved his family, who had a strong and powerful reputation…when he began making advances toward her, how could she turn him away?

Three years after the death of Zed’s wife they wed, granting Helena the ability to remain a permanent position in Cera’s life. Helena would protect her where others had failed, she would show her strength and perseverance through the dedication to her family. Even as Zed fell away from her, Helena has come to take that in stride; she no longer needs his name or affiliation to aid in her strength. After having spent years studying and utilizing his resources to her own benefit, she has become a skilled Fertility Specialist, and uses her magical knowledge of herbs and other plants to advice those interested in having children, as well as those who don’t. Now with a successful career and a family of her own, all she cares about most is keeping her loved ones close to her - even if doing so meens getting rid of anyone, and anything, that stands in her way.

do you have any,,,post prison mute dream stuff??? or like, severely quiet, silent and obedient dream shtuff?? and the consequences thereof??? bc im reading your drabbles and i am in literal awe

aww, thank you so much !! yeah selectively mute dream post prison is absolutely a hc i love and write smtimes - it’s already been suggested in canon, and it’s super fun to play w/ in post-canon works. here’s some fluffy syndicate!dream bc gosh knows we need it after the angst that we’ve been getting

tw: implied torture, panic attacks, trauma - all v short mentions. this one’s definitely on the lighter side! :D

“I didn’t know you knew sign.”

Dream startles, arms flying to cover his face, and the crow he had been signing at squawks angrily when it turns towards Phil. He ignores its chatter, smoothing his own flinch behind a smile, lowering his wings, bringing his hands, palms up, in front of him at his waist - this song and dance has become all too familiar in the weeks that Dream’s resided with the Syndicate, and Phil is nothing if not patient.

Slowly, the boy uncurls from where he’d huddled into himself, arms clasped firmly around his ribs like someone will try and take them from him if he doesn’t hold on tight enough (and maybe, Phil thinks, imagining the messy lattice of scars underneath Dream’s loose-fitting hoodie that he has only seen a few times since they brought him over, someone has - but those are thoughts that are better left untouched for as long as he can manage it.) Dream’s eyes raise, flick over his face, his breathing quieting down from the discordant rattle it had been, and tentatively, ever slowly, he raises his good hand in a loose fist, letting it bob up and down. Yes.

Phil settles into the armchair across from him, raising his own hands. His fingers feel clumsy, but the memories come back with more ease than he would’ve expected - I know a little. Dream’s eyes don’t quite brighten, but his shoulders fall down from where they’d been hunched up to his ears, the hand he keeps tucked to his chest trembling slightly less, and it’s as much as a win as he’s ever going to get.

The silence stretches, familiar in its awkwardness, and Phil stifles a grimace as he forces long-forgotten memories to the surface. Dream’s hands, from what little he had seen from the doorway, had practically flown as he spoke to the crow still sitting by his right side - obviously practiced even with the still-healing injuries tracing over both arms. How did you learn?

We- He hesitates, left hand trembling violently, before pushing on, we all learned with- he signs a C, then lifts his hands to his head in a sign that Phil vaguely remembers as being the one for deer. Dream must see the questions written in his expression, because his cheeks flush as he backtracks. C-A-L-L-A-H-A-N, he finger spells, and Phil nods. That makes sense.

Some of the crows in the house must have noticed Phil’s arrival, because they storm into the room from the doorway, awkwardly hopping across the door with their wings waving by their sides as they eagerly voice their displeasure at the lack of attention. He’s not in the mood to pick out the words between their angry caws, so he simply watches as they scatter all over the room. Something almost like a smile tugs at Dream’s face as he watches them enter - the kid has grown inexplicably fond of both his flock and all of the assorted animals that Techno drags back into the house whenever he goes out, and Phil has long since resigned himself to being outnumbered one hundred to one by a literal army of mobs wherever he goes. Some of the crows had been pretty wary of Dream at the beginning, but after a few weeks more or less the entire flock has become viciously protective of the kid, sufficiently won over by gifts of head scratches and berries and various shiny things. Sure enough, the birds form a dark, squawking circle at Dream’s feet, a few flying up to tug impatiently at his clothes, and despite the (very obvious) favoritism, Phil smiles; the flock is good for Dream, as annoying as they can be.

DADZA, one calls, its lone cry soon echoed by the entire group of fluttering feathers gathered on the floor, DADZA AND DREAM DADZA DADZA. Phil laughs, a familiar warmth and exasperation filling his lungs, and he turns his attention back to Dream.

You up to some more? He tries; it’s a chance, for sure, and he brushes away the creeping anxiety crawling up his neck; he doesn’t want to make Dream panic, hopes that he’s doing the right thing. I could always use the practice.

Quiet, once again, only broken by the murmurs of his birds eagerly awaiting Dream’s answer as the boy rocks side to side in deliberation, and Phil is halfway through working out a frantic you don’t have to if you don’t want to when Dream raises his own hands.

Sure, he signs, a forced smile on his face but eyes still clear and bright, why not?

Somehow, they end up in a bastardized version of twenty questions, surrounded by birds that do not hesitate at any chance to voice their own opinions. They work through favorite colors (green), favorite flowers (roses for Dream, peonies for Phil), favorite mob (Phil answers this with a pointed definitely-not-crows, staring at the flock who have been shouting over themselves naming different colors for about five minutes, which immediately makes them devolve into screaming caws and divebombs at the edges of Phil’s cape that leave him thoroughly occupied for the next ten minutes), and at some point Phil falls further into the cushions of his chair and Dream’s legs lay against the sofa instead of being drawn up to his chest and it’s almost normal.

By the time Techno finds them, they’ve forgone structure all together, Dream watching intently as Phil signs out an embellished tale of one of the Antarctic Empire’s exploits with a crow held gently in his hands. Techno’s voice behind him startles him bad enough to send his wings snapping outwards, feathers standing on end, but Dream doesn’t react much beyond a twitch of his lips - he must’ve seen the piglin hybrid and tag-teamed to prank him, Phil realizes with a half-hearted grumble. Techno’s eyes sparkle mischievously, definitely planned, then.

“Hi Phil, Dream,” Techno shrugs off his cloak and drapes it over the back of Phil’s chair, “Looks like you’ve been busy. Can’t say I’m not feelin’ a bit left out, though; Phil, you never told me you knew sign language.”

“You never asked, mate,” he quips, even as Dream signs animatedly from the corner of his eye. T-E-C-H-N-O-L-O-S-T.

Techno narrows his eyes. “I get the feelin’ that you’re messin’ with me, nerd.” Dream blinks faux innocently, smiling wider, and Phil picks up on the bit. Oh, this is fun.

He can’t understand us, he assures Dream, feeling a wicked smirk of his own growing on his face. So what do you think for dinner?

“Phil- the betrayal!” Techno splutters, voice going high and pitchy, and that reaction alone would’ve made the prank more than worth it - but Dream’s shoulders shake, eyes glittering as his fingers fly almost too fast for Phil to catch, and oh, that’s laughter, tiny, breathless giggles falling from his lips, and Techno must catch it even as he begins to berate the voices in his head, “This is not a bruh moment, Chat, don’t you start-”

Stew? Dream signs, still snickering, and he looks happy, more than Phil has ever seen him, the sight of him smiling and bright-eyed with amusement almost enough to cover for the gaunt quality of his face, the pale scars left all over his skin.

Of course, mate, Phil signs back, throwing in a do you think T-E-C-H-N-O ended up lost in those same woods again for good measure, rewarded when it sends Dream into another round of giggles. Techno grumbles without any real heat behind it, plopping himself down in the remaining chair.

“Ok, nah, no more of this exclusive club; you guys are teachin’ me this tonight before Chat loses it - yes that was an insult, don’t you start it with the E’s,” and Phil laughs, hard, the flock cawing and beginning to spam E on their own, for some reason, and Dream signing through the alphabet with the biggest grin on his face, and-

“Oh, Prime, this is going to so scuffed,” Phil says, breathless, his warning unheeded as Techno finishes his rant at Chat to focus on Dream.

And it is scuffed - it is so fucking scuffed, between Phil’s lackluster memory and Techno’s frequent interrupting to quiet down an extremely rowdy Chat and the incessant calls of the flock further egging them on, but it’s warm and Dream doesn’t stop smiling and Techno looks more relaxed than he has in weeks and the helpless, singing urge of protect protect protect that has lived in Phil’s head ever since Techno had carried Dream, beaten and bloodied and broken, through their front door finally, finally, begins to quiet down.

He tunes back into the impromptu lesson - they’ve finished the alphabet, seemingly having moved onto common words and objects, and Dream- hesitates, raises his hand, all five fingers drawn together, to the corner of his mouth and then pulls it back. Home, he signs, moving to fingerspelling, H-O-M-E. Home.

For a moment, they’re all quiet, Dream’s hand still raised by his face, even the crows falling silent as they all stare at each other. Phil watches, breath caught in his throat, as the planes of Techno’s face soften, the teasing edge of his voice, for once, leaving. “Yeah, nerd. You’re home.”

Home, Dream signs again, then again, looking up, eyes bright, hopeful. Phil thinks, proudly, that it looks like a new beginning. I’m home.

haikyuu!! + thanksgiving

the hq men as your boyfriend when you bring them home at thanksgiving for the first time

because thanksgiving is in a couple weeks! ik not all of us celebrate it but just pretend LOL

karasuno

sugawara koushi: marches into your kitchen wearing a little red apron and brandishing a spatula. the only thing he can really do is open the cranberry sauce and plate it, but he certainly looks very cute while doing so.

azumane asahi: eats two bowls of vanilla ice cream for dessert. is also violently lactose intolerant. you do the math.

nishinoya yuu: sprays this God-awful fruity cologne all over himself and walks into the house smelling like princess peach’s asshole. you force him to sit outside until it wears off. (spoiler alert: it doesn’t.)

hinata shouyo: frantically rakes up all the leaves in your yard into a huge pile and rolls around in it. later finds out he is in fact allergic to leaves and uses up an entire bottle of cortisone cream trying to soothe his hives. your relatives all think he has chicken pox and interact with him minimally.

kageyama tobio: comes early to help with the cooking— your mom makes him stuff the turkey and he nearly cries when he has to stick his hand in.

sawamura daichi: gets to talking with your dad and you almost have a heart attack when you see them on the couch in identical slouched positions with beers in hand-- they’re practically twins. starts calling you “pumpkin” and “peanut” after the encounter.

tanaka ryunosuke: gives a loud, tipsy toast to “the pilgrims and their funky little hats” after a couple drinks.

yamaguchi tadashi: ran a turkey trot 5k earlier in the morning with you. his entire body is sore— he can’t even sit down without tearing up so he lies face down on your living room carpet for most of the night.

tsukishima kei: literally disappears an hour into dinner and doesn’t pick up his phone. the next day you find out he left to get takeout down the street instead and just never came back.

nekoma

kozume kenma: ends up quietly sitting at the kids’ table for some unknown reason?? it’s chill though; he teaches them how to make handprint turkeys.

haiba lev: also tries to sit at the kids’ table, but they’re understandably terrified of his gigantic 6’4” self and run away when he approaches. it really hurts his feelings and he spends the rest of the night sulking.

kuroo tetsurou: announces he unironically voted for kanye and subsequently gets into a vicious political argument with your drunk uncle. 20 minutes later they’re singing a tearful rendition of “danny boy” with their arms around each other’s shoulders.

morisuke yaku: rants about how much he hates british people.

inuoka sou: pretends to be british.

shiratorizawa

ushijima wakatoshi: walks in with the stage presence of a greek god, gives your mom a huge bouquet of peonies, and thanks her for allowing him to come to dinner. she nearly faints.

tendou satori: wears a bow tie and a monocle. your mom introduces him to the family as your gay best friend— it’s not a great night for him.

semi eita: compliments your grandma’s hair cut. two hours later she’s sitting next to him with an album in hand, showing him all your embarrassing baby pictures. yes, including the naked ones.

tsutomu goshiki: drinks three hard ciders without realizing they’re alcoholic and ends up very giggly and very touchy-- and not just to you. you take him home early.

shirabu kenjirou: shows up two hours late, pretends he’s been there the entire time, and acts offended when your relatives don’t remember him.

aoba johsai

oikawa tooru: charms every single woman at the party in true oikawa fashion. at the end of the night your newly divorced aunt slips him a piece of paper with her number on it. he reassures you he isn’t going to call her-- but he also doesn’t throw it away.

iwaizumi hajime: your brother-in-law challenges him to an arm wrestling contest. iwa crushes him five times in a row without batting an eye and gives him a very respectful thumbs up afterwards.

hanamaki takahiro: makes friends with that weird third cousin who no one really knows but just kinda shows up. you see them making a secret handshake.

matsukawa issei: everyone actually loves him, but for some reason they all think he’s an accountant. has he been telling them he’s an accountant??

kunimi akira: literally just pets the cat the whole night. ignores anyone who tries to talk to him unless they’re feline.

inarizaki

miya atsumu: he ends up gossiping with all your chatty aunties. when it’s time to go home he knows about fifty years of family secrets and enough blackmail material to last him a lifetime. scared? you should be.

miya osamu: truly God’s gift to thanksgiving, everything suga wishes he could be. owns a “kiss the cook” apron (that he bought for himself) and makes five types of boujee hors d'oeuvres. every single relative at the dinner tells you to marry him.

kita shinsuke: helps you mash the potatoes. you try to not ogle his biceps while he does so, but it’s very, very difficult. wipe that drool from the corner of your mouth-- it’s embarrassing.

suna rintarou: arrives wearing all black designer clothing, a luxury watch, and a haughty expression-- the perfect trophy boyfriend. your cousin says she thinks she saw him on a calvin klein ad last week. he tells her it was actually louis vuitton.

fukurodani

akaashi keiji: handwrites all the name cards in beautiful calligraphy the day before and brings a big bundle of dahlias and baby’s breath for floral centerpieces-- you’re pretty sure your mom would rather have him as a daughter instead.

bokuto koutarou: gets involved in the thanksgiving football game with your male cousins. he scores 75% of his team’s points and by the end of it they’re chanting his name and carrying him around the field; you have to deal with god-complex bokuto for the next week and a half.

konoha akinori: your dog will not stop humping his leg. he tries to stop it but there’s really no dignified way to do that, so he just suffers in silence.

date tech

futakuchi kenji: pulls you into the cleaning supply closet while everyone else is going for seconds. your little cousin comes in looking for paper towels and catches the two of you in a compromising position-- oh, well. it’s about time someone gave that kid the talk, anyways.

koganegawa kanji: accidentally clogs the toilet and has a near panic attack trying to unclog it before it overflows.

aone takanobu: surprisingly good at chess and plays several games with your great uncle while he talks about the war

other

terushima yuuji: after dessert he proudly ties a cherry stem in a knot with his tongue, hoping it’ll impress the table. it does not.

sakusa kiyoomi: doesn’t show up. i’m sorry, but let’s be real-- did you ever really expect him to?
