a jew review of: nhl team happy hanukkah posts
good evening and chag sameach to my hanukkah-celebrating pals out there on hockeyblr. today i bring you: a non-comprehensive and entirely subjective review from one (1) jewish hockey fan of the graphics posted by various nhl teams in celebration of the first night tonight. i definitely missed some, and some teams didn't post any at all, so it's a bit patchwork. here we go.
Tumblr media
vancouver canucks: this is an extremely serviceable graphic. love the blurred dreidels to give the effect that they are spinning. very funny. props for the detail that there is a shadow of the menorah on the ice. straightforward. icemenorah is a themeTM but some did it better than others and this is a classic. 7/10
post continues under the cut for the sake of your dash and mine.
Tumblr media
carolina hurricanes: obsessed with what the canes have done here though i cannot comprehend it. the weird techno style textured background. the out of focus magen david around. THE HURRICANES. IN HEBREW. WITH THE LITTLE CANES LOGO THING I FORGET THE NAME OF ON THE HEI? INCREDIBLE. points for creativity. overall baffling vibes. 6/10.
Tumblr media
pittsburgh penguins: this is just adorable. you hired someone to draw this. spectacular work, guys. it's giving a bit of 'we browsed the target hanukkah deco section for inspo' but it's too adorable for me to care. it's team themed, it's hockey themed, it's holiday appropriate. love everything going on here. they get points for doing what very few other teams are doing and remembering this is night one, so only one candle is lit. most everyone else is getting a bit a head of themselves. 9/10.
Tumblr media
washington capitals: and here we have another edition of the icemenorah, with a minimalist twist. this graphic screams 'oh fuck wait is that tonight' which to be fair is also how i, a jew, felt about realizing tonight was the first night of hanukkah. could'a done more, but it's perfectly fine. 6/10.
Tumblr media
new jersey devils: this fucks. it's got devils themes. it's got a cool style. it's got vibes. it's got: more hockey stick menorahs which i am always excited about. that shamash candle is a graphic design nightmare but other than that i am all on board. 8/10
Tumblr media
vegas golden knights: i love the gold foil effect and that you remembered there was more to hanukkah than candles, that's nice, as is involving the other affiliates! however. where are the vibes. this is not the vgk wishes you a chag sameach, this is a greeting card i got on etsy. 6/10 just bc i KNOW you can do better. where's the neon, babes.
Tumblr media
los angeles kings: oh this is fun. it's icemenorah: WITH A TWIST. the art style is cute, it's got plenty of hockey theme, it's also very obviously LA-y, i'm giving them points for this one. the shadow is insane but that's okay, it's ~stylistic. it's cute. 7/10. UPDATE: definitely AI. boo hiss. 0/10.
Tumblr media
montréal canadiens: this is probably my favourite for sheer vibes. you got: levitating icemenorah. you got: action-shot candle lighting. you got: remembering this is night ONE. you got: the implication that the torch is the shamash candle????? you got: JOYEUSE HANOUKKA!!!!!!!! (and like happy hanukkah or whatever i guess). obsessed. it's so funny. it's amazing. 9/10.

can you show off your K collection?
The whole collection, you say :D I have a lot, so under the cut so as not to clutter up everyone’s dash.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
First: figures. The large military figures are from Alter and the slightly smaller Fushimi one is from Union Creative. The Alter ones are better quality but honestly I like the more dynamic pose of the UC figure better, there’s a matching Yata that I don’t own largely due to lack of space that’s very cool (however the UC Fushimi also has a truly terrifying alternate face…). The larger chibi figures are lottery prizes, I bought them separately in order to be sure I got what I wanted. I like the winter ones best, someday I need to get the Munakata from that set. The smaller figures are a Niitengo Deluxe set, I actually have a couple duplicates from this because I bought two sets. The ‘regular’ set had Mikoto and then there was a special set — I think it was an Animate exclusive? — that had Munakata along with alternate Fushimi and Yata figures. Then I have the teeny Shiro, Fushimi and Hisui which are keychains, I picked those up at a con (they didn’t have Yata which is why I ended up with Shiro and Hisui in there). 
Tumblr media
Also on the figure end I have these little guys: K nendoroids! Wait, you may be wondering, I don’t remember any K nendoroids. That’s because we have no official ones (still mad about that!) so I had no choice but to make my own by modifying parts of existing nendoroids. The clothes were purchased from various places online.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next is my full set of K nuis. It took a while to get all these, because when they released the ‘clansmen’ sets I only bought the Blue clan and then regretted it. And no, they didn’t make an official Niki nui, since I had extras I modified them. Hidaka, Benzai, Niki and Douhan are my own customs.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
More plushies. I believe the larger ones were Sega prizes? I found Munakata and Fushimi being sold as a set online and then hunted down Yata later. The chubby birds are from the Chun Colle line, and of course I had to buy them their own (love) nest. The Saru cat had the clothes sold separately, I think the original listing showed them with a white cat but the black was all AmiAmi had at the time so I have black cat Saru. The Sarumi nuis are from the second release around ROK airing, they’re a bit different than the first release — a little less chubby with more scruffy hair. I have Munakata too, as you can see he’s…busy on top of my desk. 
Tumblr media
Standees, because everyone needs a little anime boy on their desk. As you may notice, one of these things is not like the other. That’s right: Yata’s wearing bunny ears! Also Kuroh is there. At the time I bought the little Fushimi with the drink the cheapest one on sale had both Fushimi and Kuroh being sold as a set, so he’s here too. 
Tumblr media
Speaking of standees, here’s a few more along with other lotto prizes. These were all from the specific Fan Clan lotteries, you had to be a member to draw. The big Fushimi picture and the water bottle were both grand prizes that I managed to win, so I got to choose my character for those (…don’t  ask how much I spent….). The Fushimi picture has hardware in the back that you can use to stand it up but it’s mostly hanging out hidden by my drawers because I don’t have space to display it right now. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A few miscellaneous things. The Sarumi plate is official goods, the Akiben cup is a fan made product. The glass has Fushimi on one side and Munakata on the other though it’s hard to see, this was I believe also a lotto prize but I got it as a free gift from a shopping service. The pillows are also both official, the one on the left is the Kotobukiya dream cushion and yes I did buy the whole pillow just to use the Fushimi cover. The incredibly gay pillow featuring Fushimi touching himself while looking at a photo of Yata he’s pinned to his pillow is also, amazingly, 100% official merchandise.
Tumblr media
Jumping around to some more official stuff, these are all my physical media. Missing Kings is actually the Japanese release, which has subtitles but no dub. It released before the US version even had a release date on the books so I bought the Japanese version instead (I don’t dislike the dub but dubs are also not something that’s a dealbreaker for me). I also have three stage plays — fun fact, the US and Japan are in the same region for blu ray — these are not subtitled. 
Tumblr media
Novels (and a couple CDs). From the top left, we have the All Memories book, Case Files vol 2, Lost Small World, Idol K, the little short story booklet that came with the pre-MK S4 drama CD (with the glasses drama on it), the three anime adaptation books, the aforementioned drama CD and the Idol K CD. 
Tumblr media
Next, manga. The top left corner is the K Poe Backs book, which has a bunch of mini first person comics of the cast seducing ‘you’ the reader. The top right is the K Maniacs book which is an official doujinshi book, it has no pairings but a lot of older Sarumi doujinshi artists are involved and Fushimi and Yata definitely dominate the book. I have the special Animate of editions of Gakuen K volume 3 and Missing Kings, because I liked the covers. The LSW books are all the special editions as well, the little booklet on the bottom right came with the final volume. The booklet between the two volumes of Days of Blue also came with that second volume and has the special Cherry Blossom Viewing chapter. (Meanwhile I just realized I don’t have Return of Kings….I need to buy that, I like the art.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some more random goods. The purse, hat and watch are all from Super Groupies collabs. I have the Super Groupies S4 wallet as well but it felt weird to take a picture of my own wallet (incidentally, if anyone sees the Super Groupies S4 earrings let me know, I didn’t have my ears pierced when they came out so I didn’t buy them and I want them now). The necklace was for Fushimi’s birthday, there’s a couple Yata ones that were made as well and another Fushimi one that’s blue but this is the only one I bought, it has a tiny S4 logo. The two tins are official teas that were made, the Homra one is my favorite of the two and is a pretty red. 
Tumblr media
Some more clothes. I skipped most of the Super Groupies collab clothes for sizing reasons but these all fit and again, all are official. The shirts are from a collab with the brand Avail, they did shirts based off Shiro, Kuroh, Mikoto, Yata, Munakata and Fushimi. I have the Yata, Munakata and Fushimi ones, the puzzle piece S4 logo that’s Munakata’s is my favorite.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My wall o’ keychains. I actually have a lot of keychains on various purses so this is not all of them (I may have mentioned before that I’m also into lolita fashion so I have lots of purses, forgive me for not digging up all of them for keychain pics). The wall is missing a lot of Fushimi keychains though because they’re on my Fushimi ita bag. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’ll probably redo this at some point (I don’t really like backpacks so this doesn’t get worn much) but here’s a lot of my Fushimis that aren’t on other purses. I also have some new Sarumi ones I just bought, these are for the Sarumi ita bag I have in progress. This covers most of my collection, I also have a lot of posters and some magazines that aren’t convenient to get pictures of. This doesn’t count my, uh, extensive doujinshi collection either, just know that the bottom shelf and a half of my bookshelves is 90% Fushimi-centric doujinshi. I may be ever so slightly obsessed.

some dialogue tips
Okay, I expanded a bit on my thoughts from earlier and wrote...like 800 words? Here’s a collection of largely-unrelated thoughts about writing dialogue. I’m not an expert wordsmith by any means, but I’ve been doing simblr stories for about 2.5 years and writing creatively for much longer, so I hope some of this is helpful!
Read your dialogue out loud. In my opinion, the most important quality in dialogue is flow. Does the back-and-forth feel natural? Is the conversation stilted, or does it feel like something people might actually say? When you’re reading words on paper, it can be difficult to identify the rough patches. Your eyes are a different instrument than your ears and your brain processes speech and written text in different ways. If you’re stuck, read your dialogue out loud. The clunky phrases will jump out and be much easier to correct than if you left it on the page.
Different people talk differently. Dialogue is a tremendous vehicle for characterization, and I feel like I don’t see people discuss that point very often! What a character chooses to say and how they say it can tell us a lot about who a character is, where they come from, and what they value. You don’t need to strain yourself to come up with a completely unique voice for every single character, but if you remove dialogue tags and can’t tell whether a given line belongs to the 19-year-old stoner or their 65-year-old grandparent, you’ve missed an opportunity to imbue your characters with a lot of flavor and personality. Consider your characters’ personalities and ask yourself whether they’d use slang and profanity, whether they ramble or get straight to the point, whether they use complicated professional jargon or simpler and more accessible language, whether they hold back in conversation or say everything that pops into their head…
Most utterances are pretty short. In real life, it’s very rude to monologue or dominate a conversation without giving the other person a chance to reply. If one “line” of dialogue is more than one or two sentences long, the character will probably come across as if they’re delivering a monologue, not having a conversation. Break up longer lines of dialogue and include a bit of back-and-forth to keep the conversation flowing.
If a character is talking for a long time, spread the dialogue up across multiple screenshots. This is a personal preference thing, but if I’ve got a character who is talking for an extended period of time, I like to break the dialogue up across multiple screenshots. A screenshot with 4 lines of text is visually cluttered and makes it seem like the character is saying the whole thing in one breath. The same four lines of text distributed across 2-3 screenshots is visually neater and has a greater sense of pacing and rhythm.
Real speech is unpolished… There’s a joke among journalists that you can make anyone seem stupid by quoting them verbatim. In ordinary conversation, people often pause for thought, use filler words, and talk over one another. In my writing, I make heavy use of ellipses and em-dashes to try to give a sense of how the character is speaking, in addition to what they’re saying (perhaps I overuse them…) If you’re trying to represent ordinary conversations between ordinary people, including those kinds of verbal errors can bring a lot of life to your dialogue.
…but don’t strive for realism (strive for verisimilitude instead). Actual, real-life conversations are almost unlistenable (said the guy currently listening to a podcast). In real life, people often repeat themselves, interrupt one another, say the same things over and over, go on tangents, and say the same things multiple times in a redundant fashion. If you include too many of those kinds of markers in your written dialogue, your story can quickly become unreadable, even if it reflects a “realistic” manner of speech. In general, your dialogue doesn’t need to be realistic, it needs to feel real. (Verisimilitude basically means a sense of truthfulness [as opposed to realism] in fiction.)
People rarely address each other by name... This might be a unique-to-me issue, but when I reread my old writing, something that jumps out to me is how often I have characters use one another’s names in casual conversation. In real life, people very rarely use titles and names except in greetings and introductions. In general, if you have characters heavily using names mid-conversation, you should go back and eliminate a few.
...with some exceptions! In formal and workplace settings, using someone’s name or title is a verbal marker of respect. Characters in settings with formal hierarchies (militarizes, royal families) will be likelier to use titles and honorifics. Using a person’s name can also be a way to emphasize your point or express sincerity. You might also need to incorporate an occasional name or title in a heavy-handed way in order to deliver exposition or remind readers of the relationship between two characters. For example, I’ve got an upcoming scene where I have a character address their cousin as ‘Cousin’ in a very stilted way. I hate that it’s clunky, but I decided it was necessary because I thought readers would need the reminder that those two characters are related.
Conversations should build to something. In a back-and-forth, each new line of dialogue should move the conversation forward. Imagine this back-and-forth:    A: How are you doing?    B: Terrible! my car broke down.    A: It broke down? But you just took it to the shop!    B: I know, the mechanic lied to me about the repairs! The last line in that conversation has nothing to do with the first line in that conversation. If B had responded to A’s greeting by saying “the mechanic lied to me!” they’d seem slightly unhinged -- it’s an abrupt change of topic, but just two additional lines give it context and make it flow. When you’re writing these kinds of exchanges, you want to make sure that one character’s line makes sense as a response. If A had said “It’s good to see you!” instead of “How are you doing?” B’s reply would feel jarring, and you’d need to find a different way for them to introduce the subject of the broken-down car into the conversation.
I love to write guides. I should do that more, lmao.

GUESS WHO FINALLY GOT HER WI-FI BACK!
Me, that’s right.
Which means I can start writing again, and I won’t be MIA for much longer. Thank you all for being so understanding. I can’t wait to catch up on all that I’ve missed and interact with you all again.
Putting a read more now for those who don’t want to read this little life update.
Uni starts in less than two weeks, and I’m pretty nervous about how that’s going to affect the time I have to write because I’ve already got a reading assignment and I’m way behind on that. But anyway, I’ll find time. I’ve been gone for so long, I need to get back into it. And it’ll help me get through Uni if I write a lot in my free time. I’m majoring in English and minoring in sociology, after all.
So, I’m going to watch the Eras Tour Movie tonight, which means I’m obviously not going to be able to write tonight, but tomorrow’s Saturday and I’ve got no plans, so I’m definitely getting back to it then. And I’ll see what I can do about Kinktober because my fingers are ITCHING.
AND I finally finished my wall, for those of you who care. Call me interior designer for fangirls because I really am proud of my own work this time around.
Tumblr media
There’s still space for me to continue the wall of fame, so obviously it’s going to grow
And I’ve got another one.
Tumblr media
I tried my absolute best to make the apartment 100% ME. And it worked, I think.
Anyway, I’m about to leave, and since I haven’t made any new friends in this city, I hope meeting fellow Swifties and sharing friendship bracelets will get me some contacts around here. It can’t hurt to try and socialize a bit, right?
I made SO MANY bracelets because I had no Wi-Fi and was stuck with the old criminal minds DVD’s I still got lying around here, but I have to say, it’s been kind of refreshing as well. I feel like a caveman, but not in a bad way. I didn’t use as much social media and I got creative a lot more, so that’s a good thing, I guess. It was a forced retreat, but it felt like one nonetheless.
I’ve got a whole ring of friendship bracelets and I hope to a God I don’t believe in that I’m allowed to take them into the theater or I’m gonna be sad.
Tumblr media
Anyway, here’s a picture of my outfit because I feel like I’ve slayed with that.
Tumblr media
I’ve been gone for so long, I hope you guys appreciated my little life update. And if not, I’m sorry for bothering you with this on your dash.
More news about my writing and everything else concerning this account coming tomorrow when I’ve finished going through all my notifications and drafts, and then I’ll make a post to tell you guys more about what’s to come and when to expect it.
Until then, I love you, take care of yourselves, and I’ll see you soon!

Sooo I'm currently on spring break and I feel like this is finally a good opportunity to break into a bunch of new good habits! Today I plan on setting some goals for myself and maybe telling you a bit about my day and stuff :)
I'll break this down into a couple sections...
𝙰𝚌𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚖𝚒𝚌 𝚐𝚘𝚊𝚕𝚜
During quarters 1-3 of the school year I was kind of out of it, I didn't really study or do much. I wasn't up to my own standards and I think that's because I didn't really set clear standards for myself. I feel if I start planning more and setting more goals I can have improved motivation and productivity that I've yet to experience. During this last quarter of the school year I want to actually be active in school and mentally, here's some goals I've set...
bring all my average grades up to at least A's (bio is killing me ;-;)
make quizlets for each class to prepare for finals !!
to start actively participating in class taking notes and finally raising my hand
to actually spend at least one day a week studying (a small start— but an impactful one :3)
𝙰𝚝𝚑𝚕𝚎𝚝𝚒𝚌 𝚐𝚘𝚊𝚕𝚜
I've never really been an athletic person until now. My whole life I was never forced into sports or anything, I always wanted my mom to do something like that, but she never did, and with that I just grew up kind of lazy. At the age of 11 I picked up gymnastics but then stopped due to the pandemic, I didn't really train or anything so I didn't improve till I started taking classes again, I've been taking classes for around 2 years straight now but only recently I actually started taking gymnastics seriously, I've realized that I could be just as good as the girls I long to be like if I'd only put in the work and effort.
I didn't really realize how much I liked sports up until a couple weeks ago when I impulsively joined my schools track team out of boredom, I'm lowkey one of the worst on the team, but from the bottom you can only move upwards! Now I really want to take my sports seriously, I'm on my gymnastics pre-competitive team and I'm thinking about committing to their bronze team this fall, but I need to actually put in effort now, and I really need to improve at track. Here's my current goals that I'm aiming for...
to start stretching everyday
to run a mile everyday till I can reach a 5 minute mile easily
to get a 15 second 100m dash (guys I'm slow ik...)
to vault 6ft on pole vault
to regain my lost skills on bars (after my last gymnastics comp I keep getting overly anxious before doing legit the easiest skills on bars)
to train my core more
𝙷𝚊𝚋𝚒𝚝𝚜
My mental states been pretty messy recently, but I've been contemplating what's factoring into it and I'm come to the conclusion that my habits need to improve, they've been negatively effecting me for too long, now it's time I implement good habits. I always procrastinate, I think but never do, my rooms a mess which ='s my brain being a mess. I need to get myself together by cleaning and starting new good habits, some of these habits include...
working out and stretching everyday (as mentioned before!)
making sure to do my skincare every morning and every night (recently I've finally invested in some new skincare products and this is really a helpful habit both physically and mentally for me)
cleaning my room and keeping it clean
having me time (whether it be reading a book or playing a lil video game by myself, I feel like as an extrovert I literally force myself to be around or on call with people 24/7 and I think I need to start having time to reflect and be just Kay for a minute)
𝚁𝚎𝚓𝚎𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚊𝚙𝚢
(my version)
I feel like my whole life I've been terrified of rejection, I've let it get a hold of me. Sometimes I miss out on really good things, since I'm too anxious of the possibility of an unhappy outcome. I think what really made me wanna start rejection therapy is that a week or so ago I applied for this really cool looking job at a creative workshop and got rejected due to my word choice and not diving deep enough into my experiences within the application, it really upset me. I finally put myself out there and I got rejected. Rejection is really scary, I've confessed to like 3 people and gotten rejected 2/3 times... I feel as though I need to prove to myself that rejection isn't that bad, if it's meant to be it'll be, and if it doesn't that is perfectly fine. To combat this fear and disappointment rejection gives me I'm going to put myself out there more. Who knows, maybe good will come out of this too :) I'm gonna start... (these aren't really 100% rejection but I think they'll help me be less scared of the possibility of rejection yk?)
applying for more jobs
signing up for more possible opportunities
entering more contests
trying to talk to more new people (I'm always terrified that they'll tell me to go away or that I'm annoying or something)
Anyways sorry for the yap fest!! I'll be updating on my goals every once in a while sooo stay tuned ig :)

thank you eve, evy and j for maintaining hshq for so many years. words cannot express how thankful, grateful and appreciative we are! couldn’t have imagined better admins and couldn’t have imagined better friends. to the members, i’ve never seen such dedicated writers before and have never seen this level of characterization and plot development. yes, this is just roleplay, but it’s still a hobby and through this hobby i had the pleasure of reading many great stories and meeting such great people. for many of us, roleplaying is a shared secret we have. we wouldn’t really dare to tell our real life friends about this aspect of our lives and i think that created an unspoken bond between us. and because of the unspoken bond, i think it hurts that much more that this will be the last time we will really talk to each other or be this present on the dash again. many of you, including myself, have been here during major transitional moments in our personal lives — but what remained a constant for us was hshq. these silly little plots created great distractions for us and allowed us to have a creative release through talking about our muses, the tasks, the threads and the edits. we created our own fictional world which could respectfully be a show and a series in itself. we have all challenged each other, learned from each other and we’ve all grown quite fond of each other. now that it’s time to officially say goodbye, it’s becoming harder to let this go. i wish nothing but the best for everyone. i hope you excel or continue excelling in life. you will all be greatly missed and i can’t thank you guys enough for everything.  with love, serre
PS. i hope you enjoy this one last edit! i tried to include everyone that i remembered, present and past. i wish i could have done something better, but i threw this together very last minute! if i made any mistakes, i'm sorry 😭

An Update.
Tumblr media
So long story short things are looking... kinda O.K on my end? I'm about to leave for an appointment but I wanted to toss this on the dash so people know I haven't forgotten about my blog or them, for that matter ;_; I don't have hardly any opportunity to check on here anymore.
I did have the worst tooth in my mouth recently removed, alleviating a lot of problems I was having. I'm due for further dental work over the next few months that I'm glad for. I also had a shitton of bloodwork done recently and found that for the most part, at least blood wise, I seem to be alright. No diabetes, no anemia, etc.
Next month I'm slotted for appointments with a Psychiatrist, Hand Specialist, Neurologist, and a Gut Specialist as those are my worst problem areas right now.
I'm potentially due for hand surgery thanks to how bad it's gotten. I apparently developed a condition in my right hand called De Quervain's Tenosynovitis.
We've managed to control my acid reflux with medication now! Buuuut we now need to run several panels and go over my IBS as well as inspect what's going on with my stomach. I haven't been able to eat well for months and the little that I do eat, I get very bloated.
I also developed something called photophobia ( sensitivity to light in the eyes ) which has not helped me LOL. A neurologist wants to take a deeper look at my head because I could potentially have a tumor which... is really not good, and could be why my eyesight has been worsening steadily
So what I'm essentially saying here is shit's fucked, but most of that fucked shit is very fixable and on it's way to being fixed through the doctor's and appointments I have coming up. That being said, with my list of health issues being as lengthy as they are, obvs I'm still not quite ready to come back here yet ( esp if I have to have surgery ) but I am planning to come back the soonest I can.
I really miss writing. Like, really, really miss writing. :( April and May are looking to be the roughest treks of my health but once I get beyond those, I have a feeling I'm going to be a-ok.
But hey, in the meanwhile I still very much am reachable on Discord deadn30n
I also have a public server that's been growing over the past couple weeks if you'd like to join us. Been filling my spare time with games and such, we're almost always hanging out lmao.
Server Link Here
I'll make sure to post another update as things progress but just know I love you guys a bunch and I really do miss being here and being involved with my moots :( I miss seeing all the cool concepts and creativity you guys come up with and it sucks my health deteriorated so quickly dskjghd

Rivusa Recs: FitzTragedy
I have to thank @fitztragedy for so much beauty and joy that has entered my life since March of 2021 when I peeked into the Rivusa tag on tumblr and found my fandom fam. Your birthday gift this year is a rec list of all my favorite of your works! 
Val and I often have different tastes in genres, but she’s taught me that the stakes don’t have to be literal life and death to be interesting or dramatic or discerning. Val’s stories excel in the quiet moments, the dialogue, the intimacies; it’s chasing after your lover in the pouring rain, it’s waking up next to someone with a stunning realization, it’s your friends having your back while also encouraging you out of your comfort zone (sound familiar? Because of Val I flew halfway around the world to meet up with friends that I met because of Rivusa, because of Val).
Love you, Val! Without further ado, here are my faves:
✨Smoking Hot (collab with @gossipqueen2000) Word Count: 6k Tags: Rivusa, side Skloom, firefighter AU, humor Summary: “AFD! Open the door!” “AFD?” “…Fire department!” “….STRIPPERS!” Rec: I think the summary captures this delightful romp quite well. Mo and Val managed to craft the story of a drunken bachelorette party WITHOUT turning all the fairies into annoying caricatures of themselves. The party’s aftermath features the Specialists as firefighters, Riven and Sky up to single guy shenanigans, led by an increasingly wearied Saul wearied by their antics. This story is an instant pick-me-up.
✨An Innocent Trust Exercise Word Count: 11k Tags: Rivusa, forced proximity, smut Summary: In order to teach the fairies and Specialists to trust and learn from each other, Farah and Saul create a school-wide exercise: fairy & Specialist partners will be literally tied up for a week. Rec: Written in the beginnings of the FTWS fandom, this fic cemented for me how much Val doesn’t let ideas go once they’re in her head. Expect fun banter, steamy smut, and worldbuilding crack treated seriously. Val takes a great premise and totally delivers. Fave exchange: 
“Can’t sleep with your face this close.” 
“Too distracting?”
“I just don’t wanna have nightmares.”
✨The Most Powerful Mind Fairy in Alfea Word Count: 5k (WIP) Tags: Rivusa, pre-breakup Samusa, mind fairy stuff, S2 missing scene Summary: In Season 2, Ep 4, Rosalind calls Musa “the most powerful mind fairy here.” Missing scenes that slot into canon to explain Rosalind’s opinion. Rec: This rec is a bit personal; S2 left me reeling with where a lot of characters ended up and I had a hard time feeling creative about it, but then Val swept in and dropped this fic shortly after the premiere. I love how dark Val took this one, not shying away from Rosalind using torture to weed out the students she wanted to groom. Read for a great way to fill in the gaps S2 left us with.
✨Tolerable Word Count: 9k Tags: Rivusa, kink meme prompt, arranged marriage, dubious consent (sorta) Summary:  In order to recruit the best specialists to fight in their army and protect the Queen, Solaria promises certain qualified candidates an arranged marriage to a powerful fairy that will increase their social status and income. Riven wants to prove to his father that he can make it on his own, regardless of whether the mind fairy he's paired with wants to marry him or not. All he has to do is get her pregnant to seal the deal. Rec: I’m actually a huge sucker for arranged marriage, and apparently I also have a thing for exploring sex: is it a tool for control? for whose control? or for intimacy? What even is intimacy? I love the exploration of what healthy sex is, with a dash of insane kinky worldbuilding.
✨Thin Walls (collab with @theperfectrose) Word Count: 37k Tags: Rivusa, Modern/Non-Magical AU, And They Were Roommates, Smut Summary: Musa is in desperate need of a roommate. Riven is available. Only problem is their apartment walls are very thin. Rec: Look, I have to include Val’s magnum opus. I love that in every universe, in every timeline, not only will Rivusa get together, but Val will be there writing about it--featuring snappy banter, unrequited pining (until it’s requited ofc) and falling first into bed and then in love. Not to mention the steamiest of all smuts when Iva joined the story in the later stages. Brava, ladies!
Honorable Mention
✨Tempting Fate her collab with meeee 🥰 I can’t praise Val enough for elevating this story not only with her storytelling, but also with her graphic design to make the text-based parts of this story so fun and engaging. I’m so proud of this story!

My enneagram type is 4 (apparently) and I'm an infp
I love video essays. Basically anything Kennie JD makes is delectable
My childhood imaginary friend was literally just pinkie pie and rainbow dash I'm not kidding
Go to way to fall asleep is either warm milk with honey and lavender or nothing at all. I pass out when the universe allows me to
I would like my legal name to be either Sojourner (Journey)or Cupid.
Favorite video is either Caelum's sleep aid, Guy's reverse comfort sick audio, or the one where Ollie got his listener to eat after hearing they didn't eat lunch
Vega does nothing for me I don't get it 💔💔
I know every mlp episode up to season 5 by heart
Out of all the guys, I'd say I'm platonically attracted to either Cam or Brachium
Go to rambling topic for me is mythology but nine times outta ten it's gonna be Greek mythology and how much modern interpretations of Hades and Persephone PISS ME OFF/LH
Go to gas station snack is green tea Arizona (or pink lemonade) with Pringles
My favorite playlist rn is my lovecore playlist. It's very important to me

Tumblr media
Type Fours and INFPs are defined as thoughtful, sensitive, creative masterminds with whole worlds inside their heads. That makes you a great match with our one and only dreamwalking boy, Elliott.
Like, literally, you two could share the creative worlds in your heads; that’s what y’all as a pair is so cool. He’d love crafting pink, fluffy places for you, always striving to make them more realistic and fun and innovative. I know you’re also an artist, so Elliott could bring your drawings to life in dreams. Who needs references or models when you have a top notch dreamwalker as a boyfriend?
Overall, your relationship would be just so cute. Elliott’s friends to lovers shaped, so I can imagine him having absorbed your MLP knowledge, if he hasn’t seen it, through pure osmosis. He always has little pops of bright, “girlier” colors: tie dye shirts you bought him, pink hair ties on his wrist, a pink beanie he stole from you and never gave back. You go out to eat together, and you laugh when he’s a spicy food wimp because he never managed to build a tolerance.
Song:
Now, baby, I believe this is real/ So take a chance and don't ever look back, don't ever look back/ We drove to Cali and got drunk on the beach/ Got a motel and built a fort out of sheets/ I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece/ I'm complete
This isn’t That Handsome Devil, it’s nowhere close, but I will not apologize, okay. Your submission is giving cute, it’s giving girly pop, it’s giving bubblegum. I go where the words lead me, and they are leading me to the cheesy Katy Perry classic bop about dreams and falling in love that Elliott, without a doubt, as a creature of taste, knows all the words to.
Runner-Ups:
Okay, so Sam is a runner-up because it’s basically canon he wears the same, cowboy shit all the time, and I think your colors and style would be a cute contrast to his. Regulus is a runner-up, my favorite one, because you could spin him as the Hades to your Persephone any which way, and I WILL.
note: rant to me anytime about Hades and Persephone I love Greek mythology shit tell me how you feel about Hadestown
Read this post and send me an ask if you’d like a match-up of your own! 💌

hey! i saw you're taking requests so,, could i request best jeanist and prohero!reader (they/them) trying their hand at flirting? reader is confident and very good at it while jeanist is also good at it! but can't help but get flustrated by how cute and creative reader's compliments are. sadly they have to stop because some villain showed up and they must fight them but they still think about eachother's words.
it's got a sweet and fluffy touch honestly! i hope this is okay for you (otherwise, tell me no so i know you're not writing it, i have another idea for a request if you want😔🤲🏻) and i also hope you're having a good day/night!
Compliments.
Best Jeanist x Prohero!Reader (they/them)
Summary: They tried flirting with each other but had to stop because a villain came but they can’t stop thinking about the compliments.
Disclaimer: Reader’s Quirk: Blood manipulation.
★☽A/N: I never wrote Beast Jeanist before but I shall do my best!! He’s legit such a clean guy, the way he held his phone in season 6 😭
Contents: FLUFF, a few bloody moments but it’s mainly reader’s Quirk.
Tumblr media
◆::◇::◆::◇::◆
They thought it was time for the next level of dating….
Flirting.
The Pro Hero, H/N, is one confident and bold one, they;re flirting like a pro while Best Jeanist is alright at it but he can’t help but be flustered by the compliments.
Compliments be like:
◆ H/N wrapped their hands around Best Jeanist waist (Short or not short) and started to compliment like crazy, like, “My pretty boy.” , “My, do you look fine, my sweetheart.” And they’re just! Ugh!!! So sweet and it makes him feel so loved.
◆ Best Jeanist tries his best at flirting and it wasn’t that bad at it! Just a few small compliments like: “My sweet hero.” , “How are you, sweetheart?” JUST A LOT OF PETNAMES, LMAOO!! He’s trying his best, give him some credits!!
◇::◆
They were flirting as they walked along the streets, patrolling the district when they got really juicy with the compliments to the point they’re stopping to make out a bit, Best Jeanist flustering up with the compliments. 
They immediately stopped when they heard a huge crash from afar, looking to see a villain stealing a bunch of food and money, “Why don’t we stop him, how about that, sweetheart?” H/N smirked, Best Jeanist flustered a bright red but brushed it off and nodded, heading to the scene together.
“Really? H/N and Best Jeanist? How lucky am I!!!” The villain cackled, eating all the food he stole and he became more muscular. ‘Eating junk and he’s suddenly buffier? Must be his quirk.’ H/N noticed before slashing a huge scar along their forearm, blood dripping to the ground then all of it collected itself into a huge blob and shaped itself into a blood-formed machete.
The hero immediately dashed towards the villain and easily cut through the villain’s arm, “Ah! What the fuck?! I thought heroes can’t kill?!” The villain yelled, “Who said we can’t hurt them?” H/N chuckled, throwing the machete and catching it by its handle swiftly and dashed back, catching the villain off-caught. The villain was about to attack when H/N left an opening but missed when the hero suddenly disappeared, “Huh?” He said confusingly, looking up to see the hero with a grin and their body up in the air with thin threads holding them up, looking down to see Best Jeanist with his threads around his arms. Best Jeanist swiftly sends one of his threads towards the villain, tangling it around his body.
The villain roared and bursted out of those threads and charged towards the Fiber Hero but he was immediately stopped by a weapon blocking his way. "Not so fast, I don't want my sweetheart to be mashed potato," H/N chuckled as they used their machete to push the villain away. Best Jeanist stood helplessly, his face heated, 'Sweetheart? Why did they have to say that?!' He pondered as his face flooded with crimson red. He quickly brushed it off when he saw H/N crash to the ground, sending his threads in the direction of the villain and catching him in his intertwined web. Quickly standing, H/N ran and sent a strike onto the villain's neck with the machete's blunt side, striking a nerve and knocking him unconscious.
Cheers from the civilians roared the streets, thanking the heroes with cheers and praise. “Phew! That was close, wasn’t it, sweetheart?” H/N smiled towards Best Jeanist, “Please stop calling me that.” Best Jeanist mumbled, H/N tilted their head with confusion but then as if, out of realization, their eyes widened but then smiled a sneaky smirk and hugged Best Jeanist’s hips, “Look at you, all flustered~ You’re so adorable, sweetheart!” H/N chuckled, leaving Best Jeanist with a flustered face.
“I hate you.” Best Jeanist mumbled,
“I love you too, sweetheart.” H/N chuckled, kissing Best Jeanist with a quick kiss before turning back to the civilians and waving back in joy.

Okay, I miss bnp au. What if they have a projector that show memories it show the memories of the canon cast and weird shit they do (and Yuu's unpleasant experience with RSA students calling them a damsel in distress when they clearly they can handle themselves
Anon I think we have a diferent idea of what a fun RSA is for writing, so I'm taking the creative liberty to put a little bit more thought into that last bit You said
Takes place during: meeting the other self
The idea was simple: to get back home the portal had to know where home is! Makes sense right? So one of them had to put on this weird looking hat, so it could track where their original dimension is. They needed someone with a very good memory and a strong connection to that original dimension.... ergo the obvious choice was Yuu of course :)
Like the good little prefect they are, Yuu put that on and waited for... something... and then they passed out, giving Idia the biggest scare of his goddamed life, a commotion was forming around, the villains were, for once, visibly distressed.
Chernabog's tension was palpable, bnpYuu couldn't get closer for the demon mountain held them in fear of a black out or worse... an explosion.
Mickey was the definition of internal panic, he was desperate to get that thing out of Yuu's head, but the risk is massive and what it could cost was too much, so he waits
An argument started to grow between the kids in their fear, false accusations and soon it would reach the adults and teens but then... the projector started working... what it showed wasn't a cartoon, no... it was memories
🌹they were in a stable, that much was obvious, a brown and dark horse looked them up and dow.
Yuu: I don't know about it...
Riddle, who was dressed like a proper equestrian helped them up the black horse: common now I'll be right here! There's nothing to worry about
And then there were
Yuu was galloping out of control screaming and somehow they had the capacity to be upside down
Riddle right behind them in the brown horse screaming and beheading however was on the way
Laughter and cackling could be heard in all the tables, both Riddles faces where red and someone please hold the little one he could strangle a person with his tiny little hands right now if provoked
The queen found amusement in the whole ordeal, such a dashing knight in shiny armor her little rose was! Look at him rescuing the little darling she's so pround!
🦁 the moment was a blur, Yuu was focused only in getting to their destination, marching in fury, blind to their surroundings, the door was kicked open
Yuu: LEONA KING-FUCKING-SCHOOLAR WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS!?!?!
Leona, who was now alerted by all the noise finally took in his suroundings: ah... what? Chuckles* didn't you like the new makeup?
For a brief moment Yuu's eyes passed by a mirror, their reflection showed doodles in their face, in their forehead a big "Leona was here"
And then everything was a blur again as the prefect jumped into Leona's direction who for the briefest of second looked genuinely afraid
Their chase eneded on the fountain
Little Leona was laughing, he couldn't help it, Yuu's face and rage was so funny, ogLeona on the other hand was fighting realy hard to stay put in his "sleep", internaly screaming of embarrassment
Scar ruffled both their head, his little rascals, always so cheeky, "next time use a permanent one"
🐙it was p.e class, Azul was trying to give... questionable advice to a Yuu and Grim
Azul: you just, concentrate and go, there's nothing more to it!
Grim: SAYS THE GUY WHO CAN'T EVEN GO HIGHER THAN 5 MILIMETER!
Azul gets closer: IT'S TEN CENTIMETERS LAST TIME!
Yuu: CAN YOU PRINCESSES SHUT UP-
The broom flies METER ABOVE THE GROUND with all three of them who screams so loud that Yuu goes deaf for a short moment
Azul is fuming in shame, he's red, he's pink, he wants to dive into the nearest box and never be seen in the light of the day again. Contrasting Little Azul who is BEAMING, HE CAN FLY A BROOM HOLLY-
Ursula pats his head in pity, poor boy... flying is aways a bitch for seafolk, she understands, but that was funny as hell
🐍It was history class, Yuu was drowsy almost sleeping when Jamil was easily spotted
The vision become sharper and a low chuckle could be heard from the prefect
Then, Jamil looked their way... and bleeped at them, wich made the prefect giggle
The face become more and more exaggerated with shifts from Yuu showing they themselfs were making more and more stupid face and then a loud bam vane from their side
Abruptly scarring both studnets who had now to face a furious Muzu Trein
The audience was more coowing than laughing, this was such a cute moment for such stoic kids. Wich meant Jamil was living in his hoodie from now own, no more sun light, he can't face society after that nope, not anymore, jamil isn't home please come back never- little Jamil is giggling and when spotted little Yuu they praticaly recreated the scene, too much caught in their own little game that they almost lost the next memory
Now, Jafar chuckled, his little boy could make him proud just bu existing and this was no difernet. "Oh come now boy you made them laugh, if that isn't a show of foundness I don't know what does"
👑 it was night time at Ramshackle, not too late for the two to be awake, you could call this a sleepover, but it was more like chilling in the same room in their phones, until Yuu spoke
Yuu: hm... hey Vil
Vil: hm?
Yuu: have you ever sweeped someone of their feet?
Vil: ... technically yes, but in what context?
Yuu: dance
Vil: ah... yes, that was a comun move in musicals for a while and where in many I participated
Yuu: have you ever been sweeped of your feet?
Vil: ... were are you going with this?
Yuu with the smuguest expression know to exists: that a guess~
And that's how Vil Schoenheit, dorm leader of Pomefiore, found out that little prefect Yuu has been training with mr. Vargas and where now a very strong little bean of a magicless human, how? Why, they shouted him higher tha expected AND CAUGH HIM BACK
It was mostly a shock for the entire theater, they expected a fall, they expected high heels being broken not... every one gives the unconcious prefect a side glance, not that the little prefect could be that strong
Vil was just drinking water hopping noone looked at him, and then the Queen herself "I mean... I can see the apeal" he spits his water. Little Vil is glancing back at little Yuu who is just fixating on him and shouted "WHEN I GROW UP I'M GONNA BE JACKED AND WE ARE ABSOLUTELY DOING THAT!" Little vil has no ideia how to react besides blushing
🏺at a break in pe class Yuu and a trembling Idia where resting by a tree, Yuu murmuring a familiar little tune that caugh Idia's attention
He couldn't help but murmur the song lyrics, what prompted Yuu to follow along, and as the two sang the music picked it's peek and-
Yuu & Idia: FROM ZERO TO HERO AND WHO'DVE THUNK?!
To the point their singing was so loud and enthusiastic, of beat and no harmonies as it is when you sing with friends that they didn't noticed Vargas behind them, who swiftly picked both up "if you both can cause such ruckus you are already rested no? Hehehe now run go go go!"
The audience sang along tbh, and Hades just covered his ears "out of all songs why that one hell", little Idia was singing along and only stoped when spoting Hercules himself beaming at his little cousing, so does like him after all, he might cry hold on-
Idia? What? Never heard of him, theres only annoying hoodie man, no Idia's there no sire, he does nor exist, he isn't here at all, and absolutely not blushing and firing pink hues in his flammable cursed hair like a madman nope
🐲 Yuu was running, behind them a sharp caw was heard, as their vision focuses solely in the next window and they jump
The outside view becoming clear, students gathered changing classes and between them one very familiar pair of horns, quickly thinking Yuu acted
Yuu: TSUNOTAROU CATCH ME!
Only for the dragon fae not exactly expecting child of man to actualybe falling right into his direction,both collapsing into the ground
The Phoenix spell passing rightrough their heads and continuing it's path of flames, leaving two sore students behind
Malleus: what came over your to think I could ever react in ti-
Yuu hugging him: YOU CAUGHT ME!
The audience aws, that was cute, maybe dragon faes aren't so fearsome after all. Malleficent chuckled at the little humans audacity and some fondness grew in her heart for said child, the way her grandchild acted so casual with them made her worry less for his future, since he clearly as at least one friend of his age
Malleus was not expecting that to be the memory Yuu associated with him at all, he was pathetic, not reacting quickly enough to catch them and yet...
Everyone was so distracted that noone noticed until too late a little mischief
Little Yuu jumps out of Chernabog head: TON-TON CATCH ME!
Chernabog was panicking because no matter how fast he cups his hand the fall will still hurt his little one and then-
Little Malleus actualy teleported to little Yuu breaking the fall and falling right into Malleus embrace who just teleported quickly enough and knows how to float
Little Malleus: WE CAUGHT YOU!
Mickey fainted
⚔ Then, there was their time at RSA
The boys could be... overbearing, they were always ready to help and be useful, it almost looked like their whole purpose of existence was to be just that, wich... made Yuu feel... uncomfortable, useless and unneeded. For someone who was used to have all chores trown in their hands, the new dynamic was... a little bit too much, causing conflict and, for the boys, some good self reflection and revelations
Those times surely marked Yuu, however as time passes the memories changed for more light hearted ones
From catching rabbits with "Alice"
Beating a tired blue haired boy to sleep after dark hours in reviewing the management of his dorm
Studying human history with Rielle and how his eyes shines with excitement
Helping a rough boy prank some bullies
Helping Neige with his busy schedule since he can't say no to people
Training with a himbo
And finaly treating the rose garden of RSA with a sweet boy with a calming voice
The little heroes are stunned, they never expected that in some world they WOULD be friends with Yuu!
And trust me they tried to make friends but... the boys could be very... scary... and possessive of their friend
But seeing their teen selfs befriending Teen Yuu? They little eyes shined with hope and determinatiom
Little Yuu caugh them staring, their response being a small wave of hello and a little smile
Chernabog is... still reluctant in trusting the heroes with his Child... meanwhile Mickey is ABSOLUTELY PROUND, his child can make friends with everyone! Look at them go!
ASKS FOR THE AUS ARE STILL CLOSED!

Hihi!! I just dropped a notification bomb but I also wanted to drop by your askbox to show some love and appreciation for the ongoing event!! :DD (hope you don't mind lmao ;;;)
I might be late to the party (I missed the first week of 2024 orz) but when I returned, my dash was full of pieces from your event!!! I just had to scroll back to the beginning and ended up a tad too invested in the lore by the time I reached the latest post DX
Anyways, I'll be sticking around because I feel like this is going to be a WILD run /pos!!! (I'm searching for a new jamboard app to compile all the info and theories because my brain is braining (I HAVEN'T BEEN THIS INVESTED IN ANYTHING SINCE THE MAFIA EVENT HELP???))
tdlr: I love your creative brain and I can't wait to uncover the SK + Cupid and Eros's boss :)
P.s. I hope it's alright that I'm still theorizing lore and stuff even as a non-participant?? DX If not, lmk as well!!! Then I'll just continue the thoughts in solitary :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media
HELP I GOT YOUR TWO ASKS AS I WOKE UP LATE AND THE AMOUNT OF LAUGHS I GOT... MAN THIS IS DEDICATION RIGHT HERE BUT HELP???
Anyways, I don't mind if you theorize about all of this. I think it's going to be very fun when the weekends hit because it's going to be a free day for me to decide "which part of lore am I going to drop" HAOSNSOSJ
AND THE JAMBOARD. I CANT THE JAMBOARD (mafia astro memories ^)
Pls if you have one please send it to me so I can add it to the masterlist and so others could see it. I wanna see how much that's going to be filled with "who's the sk" and "what's the boss's actual identity" (because tbh the first can be solved if you guys looked over it again. Who knows? I might drop something there)
AND THE MEME LMAO
"I am connecting the dots" "you didn't connect shit" "I am connecting them" energy right there
Anyways I am thoroughly enjoying the amount of dedication, please continue, I allow anyone to go wild with what's going on in the event and see what the hell is happening
(as I plan Ansy's part to be more lore related and maybe be the ""cusp"" filled with most answers. Who knows hehe)

omg halloween fics im so excited! my first thought was the gang deciding to not dress up as anything spooky bc one member is comically afraid of the season, they go the wholesome route and all agree to dress as their heroes. peacemaker shows up in full 70s glam rocker costume. vigilante is, of course, dressed as peacemaker. and you show up in an adorably makeshift vigilante costume! hes saved your life a dozen times, of course hes your hero!!
Don't You Get It?
Tumblr media
Rated: T+
Pairing: gn!Reader/Adrian Chase
Summary:  When the Adebayo’s request non-scary costumes at their Halloween party this year, you and Adrian are forced to get a little creative.
Warnings: None
Word Count: 2192
A/N: Ah, ty for this suggestion! I liked it so much that it got a little out of hand and I had to cut out a couple of scenes! 😅
🔪[#Vigilante Halloween Masterlist] 🕊
[Masterlist]
[Dividers]
Tumblr media
“No. Fucking. Way!” 
“What?” Leota called after you as you dashed further into the clothing section of the store.
When she caught up with you, you spun around with an excited flourish as you held up a black tee shirt. It had Vigilante’s signature chevron pattern printed on the chest. 
“Do you think Adrian gets a cut of the sales?” 
She laughed as you put the shirt back on the rack and grabbed one in your size. 
“How? They can’t just send a check to “Vigilante”. It would be cool though, maybe he'd be able to quit his job.”
You snorted out a laugh and dropped the shirt in your basket. “Can you imagine Vig as a full time crime fighter? You thought he was wanted on multiple counts of murder before?” 
“You’re right. Fennel Fields keeps him humble. I can’t believe you’re actually buying that.”
“I don’t know how, or when, but one day it’ll come in handy.”
She laughed and moved onto the next section of the store.
That was a couple of months ago. “Summer of Super Heroes” the store called their little promotion. There had been clothes based on other heroes, of course. Mostly Batman and Superman, but locations with local heroes also got merchandise based on them. Peacemaker and Vigilante had been hailed as heroes after the whole Butterfly incident, so they also had merchandise. It wasn’t much, it looked like you missed all of the Peacemaker merchandise, but you were lucky enough to snag a Vigilante shirt before it sold out.
Now Halloween was approaching and the Adebayo’s were hosting a party in which they were requesting no scary costumes. 
“I can’t believe I can’t go as Leatherface!” Adrian complained while you stitched him up from his latest recklessness. 
It hadn’t been an official ARGUS mission, but you had a major soft spot for the vigilante, so you gave him a standing offer to help him out whenever he needed, and he needed help often. According to him, even your band-aids were somehow even better than his! 
“I was gonna bring a chainsaw and everything! It’s not fair! I can’t even use a chainsaw on pretend bad guys!”
You finished up, double checking your work just for the chance to subtly run your fingers across his incredibly chiseled abs. “I don’t think there are going to be many pretend bad guys anyways, V.” You started and pulled your hands away from his warmth and removed your gloves. “Remember Adebayo suggested that we come as our hero or something.”
"That's so lame!"
You started to tidy up your med kit while he tossed a shirt on. “Hmm.”
“What?” He asked once his head popped through his shirt.
“Nothing, really. I just thought you’d be jumping at the chance to dress up as Peacemaker.” 
He loudly gasped and his eyes went wide.”You’re right! It’s not lame!” But just as quickly as he had changed his mind, he returned to pouting. “But, where am I going to get a Peacemaker shirt in time?!” 
“Just buy a red shirt.” 
“But it’s gotta have the dove of Peace on it!”
“Paint it on?”
“It won’t look good if I do it!” He huffed, “can you do it?”
“Hmm, probably not well.” You conceded. 
He whined and pouted again, so you continued to spin ideas for him. You couldn’t have your favorite boy feeling all sad, no matter how cute he looked.
“Doesn’t Chris have multiples of that shirt? Just use one of those?”
He looked at you dubiously. “I know you think I’m big and muscly,” he was, “but P’s shirts won’t fit me! It’ll look stupid if it’s all baggy!” 
“Okay. Tell you what, if you can get one of his shirts, I can do a bit of tailoring and bring it in for you.”
“Really?” He gasped and leaned forward on the desk he was sitting on.
“Yea. I’ll even let it back out after the party so he doesn't get mad at you for ruining one of his shirts.”
“You can do that?”
“Pretty easy, actually.” You nodded.
“You’re so cool!” He hopped off the desk and pulled you up into a big hug. “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” He rocked you from side to side as he continued to hug you. 
“Calm down, Vig!” You winced from how loud he was.
He dropped you with an apology and a wide smile gracing his lips, then helped you clean and lock up before leaving Henenlotter in a rush, presumably to borrow one of Peacemaker’s shirts.
-
The next day he texted you saying that he got a hold of one of Peacemaker’s shirts and he was going to drop it off at your place. It was later than you expected when he actually showed up, but considering he was wearing his Fennel Fields uniform, you guessed he just got off of work.
“Hey,” he greeted as you let him in. “Can I change here?” He motioned to the duffel bag in his hands, one you’d seen many times before and knew to contain his Vigilante suit.
“Sure.” You took the Peacemaker shirt from him and tossed it on the back of your couch. Then you grabbed the measuring tape you set out for when he got there. “But before you put your Vigilante suit on, let me take some measurements.” 
“Ok!” He said cheerily, but he walked away towards your bathroom.
“Oh…no.” you blinked, “I meant…” well he was already in the bathroom…
Sure enough, a minute later he returned to the living room in nothing but his tactical pants and socks. Not that you were going to complain.
It surprised you (not for the first time) how soft his skin was. Usually when you patched him up, you wore gloves, robbing you of the feeling of his skin. But now, as you took his measurements, you were reminded of just how soft his skin was. So few scars actually covered his body, despite how often he got hurt. You’d only been around the team for a few months, a more than welcome field medic, and by all accounts, he should have way more scars, but even the wound you stitched up last night was nothing but a light pink blemish that was sure to fade completely rather soon. 
“Do you have a costume yet?” He asked once you let him go. He sat down on the couch and started to slip on the rest of his suit.
“Uhm, not really.” You half lied. You had an idea, and you were pretty certain you could get all the components for the costume from your existing wardrobe. 
“Oh! If you want, I can borrow another shirt from Peacemaker and we can match!” 
His smile was so cute that you almost felt bad for shooting him down. But there was no way you were going to wear a Peacemaker costume! “No thanks, I’ll think of something before the party.” 
“Aww! How awesome would it be if we were both Peacemaker though?” 
 You chuckled and steeled your nerves. Honestly, if he kept that up you might just give in. “Maybe we can wear matching costumes next year?”
-
You were running a little late to the party. A quick text to Adebayo meant that no one was worried, though Adrian kept texting you updates on the party and sent a few pictures as well. (You may have saved the selfies that he sent. He just looked so happy and so good that it was hard to resist!) 
The party was in full swing by the time you arrived. It wasn’t just the 11th Street Kids, but some of Keeya’s friends and coworkers as well as some of their neighbors. So it was a bit hectic when Leota answered the door. She was balancing a bowl of candy in one arm and a dog in a doctor costume in the other.
“Hey! Happy Halloween! Come on in!” 
You followed her in with an enthusiastic greeting. 
The dog in her arms started to squirm so she motioned to a room off the side of the entryway. “You can put your coat and hat down in there.” 
“Alright.” You didn’t bother to correct her, that the plain black baseball cap that you wore was part of your costume, as you headed for the room she pointed to.
Before you even opened the door, you heard your name yelled from across the party.
Adrian had spotted you walking in, in fact he’d been eagerly checking his phone for a text from you and watching the door every time the doorbell rang. He quickly caught up with you as you entered what you assumed was a small guest bedroom, if the twin bed tucked in the corner and piled with coats was anything to go by. 
He started to excitedly tell you how everyone, even Peacemaker,  said his costume looked so good. And that because of your tailoring Peacemaker hadn’t even noticed that he borrowed a shirt from him in the first place!
“Wait, you didn’t even tell him you were borrowing his shirt? Adrian, isn’t that stealing?” You teased him as you dropped your coat with the others on the bed. 
“No! It’s not technically stealing because…” he stopped talking as he took in your costume.
Once you had the Vigilante shirt, it was easy to put together a Vigilante costume, as you already owned tactical pants and combat boots. 
You raised a brow at his sudden silence. “Adrian?”
“...Holy shit. You’re dressed as me?” 
“Yea!” You smiled, then pulled up the black neck gaiter you were wearing and popped on a pair of red sunglasses. “What do you think?” 
“...You’re dressed as me.” 
You blinked and started to get a little concerned that he was repeating himself. “Yea..? Not enough? Too much?” 
“No. I don’t think you understood what Adebayo said. We’re supposed to dress up as our heroes.” He emphasized his point by clapping his hands together.
You looked down at your costume before looking back up at him. “Yea dude, I got that. We had a whole conversation about it while I was giving you stitches, remember?”
He gave a little frustrated growl, like you weren’t understanding him, and scrunched up his face. “But you’re supposed to dress up as your hero! And you’re dressed up as me!” 
You took off your sunglasses and pulled the mask down so he could see your face clearly. “Adrian, Vigilante has saved me at least a dozen times, if not more! You saved me. So of course you’re my hero.” 
He swallowed, “o-oh…”
You broke the slightly awkward silence that followed with a quiet cough. “But if you want me to change or something, I’m sure Leota has some-”
“No! No. I just, uhmmm…” Adrian was looking up as he tried to think of something, anything, to say. His blush no longer stained his cheeks because of frustration, but you had just called him your hero. 
“I look that good, huh?” You giggled a little nervously as you copied the Peacemaker hero pose (that you’re pretty sure he just made up) that he kept doing in the pictures he sent you. 
That seemed to snap him out of his stupor and he grinned at you. “Well you are dressed as the second coolest hero!”
“What? I’m totally dressed up as the first coolest hero!” 
He blushed even more, even the tips of his ears were turning pink, and looked down at his feet.
“Which makes what I’m about to do a little weird.” You finished and flipped your hat backwards.
He looked up and tilted his head in that cute way he always did when he was confused. “What are you about to do?” “This.” You quickly kissed him, just a little peck of the lips. 
You meant to kiss him and dash off to the party to deal with however he felt about you kissing him later, but he quickly grabbed your hips and pulled you close to him. 
He dropped his forehead to yours, his nose lightly bumping against yours and he grinned. “Eat peace, motherfucker.” 
You snorted out a laugh, unable to control your chuckling until he kissed you. He was smiling against your lips, laughing with you even as he nipped at your bottom lip. 
“Nu-uh! You guys are not having sex in here!” Leota yelled as she stood in the doorway pointing at the two of you.
You and Adrian jumped apart slightly, but he managed to keep one hand on your back, as you looked at Leota in surprise, neither of you heard her open the door.
“We weren’t going to have sex!” You protested her assumption.
“We weren’t?” 
You coughed quietly and looked at him. “Well, not here, anyways!” 
Which meant that you were open to have sex with him anywhere else! “Awesome!” 
Leota eyed you, though you could see the amusement in her eyes, and ushered you out of the room.
You weren’t sure what was sweeter, the candy you kept munching on, or how closely Adrian was glued to your side for the rest of the night.

🖇️ 7DREAM : tiktok trends (bf ver.) !
PG13 | boyfriend!dream x reader(f). fluff, romance, slice of life. non-idol au.
lmh | “let me raise a toast...”
mark is not an avid tiktok user—he’s not exactly into social media as a whole. but when he hears this certain tiktok audio coming from your phone, he can’t help but open the app to create a video of his own. selecting a few (of the only) good photos he has of you, mark posts an appreciation tiktok for the girl he loves the most. unexpectedly, it garners over one million views. (“hey, babe, why are people commenting about sleeping on the highway?”)
hrj | “if i was a… (according to my bf).”
both you and renjun like to spend some time on tiktok, sometimes creating silly drafts, sometimes uploading couple videos. when the “if i was a…” trend started going viral on tiktok, both you and renjun just knew the two of you had to do it. renjun, artistic with the most creative mind ever, gives elaborate answers (e.g., baby blue or hydrangea flowers), and your final product reaches well over 100k likes. (“oh my god, people don’t think the answers are real!”)
ljn | manga couple silhouettes.
tiktok is what brought you and jeno together. both popular influencers on the app, you naturally ended up hanging out with him. it’s only been a few weeks since the two of you went public as a couple, and since then, fans have been eating up every couple tiktok either one of you post. naturally, the two of you partake in this trend just for fun, but happen to gain millions of likes. and everyone agrees the you and jeno are the capital it couple of tiktok.
ldh | “bound to fall(ing) in love.”
your love story with donghyuck is rather cliché—the typical rivals to lovers who just so happen to have a deeply buried desire for one another. now, a year into your relationship, donghyuck is scrolling on tiktok when he comes across the bound 2 sound. immediately, you dash to his side to make a draft, forcing donghyuck to take part in it. rivals to lovers is cute and all, but rivals to lovers that happened in real life? definitely bound to fall(ing) in love.
njm | “i was busy thinking about—”
you are no stranger to jaemin’s affectionate side—in fact, you find it extremely attractive. jaemin isn’t very active on tiktok, but when he is, all he does is upload tiktoks about you. when he stumbles upon the remix of charli xcx’s boys and siri’s monotonous voice, jaemin quite literally trips over the carpet to make a tiktok. any chance to show off his wonderful girlfriend is a chance he will always take. (“baby, baby, act natural, okay? i wanna make a tiktok.”)
zcl | the photo crop filter.
chenle is a goofy boyfriend, and just like popular belief, enjoy making silly tiktoks—silly tiktoks that involve you, of course. after watching a few videos of couples fighting to either fit within or miss the frame, chenle begs you to partake in the trend. this leads you to sit in his gamer chair as he props his phone against his monitor. needless to say, the two of you have a little too much fun making the tiktok, avidly working to push each other into the frame.
pjs | “sorry, i’m not into short guys.”
everybody knows jisung at your high school; the tall senior with the pretty face and godsent body. you also know the popular guy, but for a different reason: he’s your boyfriend, and the cutest one at that. the height gap between you and jisung is attractive, and it’s one of the factors that made you fall for him (yes, you like cliché things). when the sound starts circling all over tiktok, you waste no time in having jisung lift your phone above his head and well above yours.
