🌷 Hey!! I am back because i felt like it. This fic is a fleeting idea i had a long time ago and was finally able to finish. In the beginning it was not meant for Yeonjun but it had mostly OC'S so if you see random names I'm sorry, I have yet to proofread it. Feel free to give me notes and feedback, as I appreciate it a lot!! 'Til next time <3

(not my GIF)

Yeonjun. Stupid, fucking Yeonjun.

Idiot, average-looking yet so stupidly attractive Yeonjun.

“If you really hate him you should stop staring at him, you know?” a blonde girl talked to her best friend, who shushed her in response.

“Shut up Chaewon, I’m not staring” Y/N retorted against her best friend.

Except she was, and she knew it.

Another person in the library was also very aware of Y/N and what she was doing, because he could feel her eyes pierce through his head.

And he loved it.

“Ask anybody here, they’ll say you’re staring,” Chaewon said in an amused tone, making Y/N’s eye twitch in frustration.

“Well, then it’s hate-staring, glaring if you will,” Y/N looked away from the boy and glared at her best friend, turning her head ever so slowly, as to recreate the scene in a horror movie.

“Just like I’m glaring at you right now.” Chaewon let out a laugh at her friend’s antics and shrugged it off.

“Sure thing, love. Keep telling yourself that.”Chaewon said. Y/N could only scoff before going back to look at her books.

Look was indeed the best word to describe what she was doing, the words on the page being read for the tenth time in as many minutes without understanding nor absorbing any of it. Biology sucked, and so did Y/N’s brain at that moment. So much so that after a couple of seconds she got distracted again.

“What is it with the stupid beanie anyway? Like what’s the deal with that? DO YOU THINK HE HAS A BALD SPOT?” Y/N whisper-screamed, making Chaewon almost spit out the water she was trying to drink after finally reaching the end of her chapter.

Suddenly the girls heard a louder voice coming from behind them.

“It’s actually for style-related purposes, no bald spot, though if you’re still in doubt you could always ask him. Also, Y/N, you were one hundred percent staring at Yeonjun, just FYI.” Wooyoung said whilst chuckling at the little jump the girls made upon hearing him. Y/N turned around, red in the face, a mixture of embarrassment for being caught and pure wrath, caused by Wooyoung’s presence.

“How long have you been here?” She said bitterly. The boy could sense she wanted to add something, the words dying in her throat a bit too fast. He assumed a “dickhead”, or “asshole” was missing, but he let it go, not teasing her any further.

“The whole time, love,” he said mocking what Chaewon had said to her friend just a few minutes prior. Then turned away and returned to his spot at the same table with Yeonjun, Soobin and Changbin.

Y/N looked warily at her surroundings to make sure no one else was around to eavesdrop on them.

“How in actual hell are you able to like that guy?” Her shocked expression clearly visible on her features.

Chaewon shrugged.

“He just likes to tease you, he’s actually very nice” She answered, her cheeks turning slightly pink before continuing.

“I mean it’s not like they’re the fuckboys group.” When Chaewon said that, Y/N was still looking at them and immediately turned around.

“No, they’re worse, at least the fuckboys are self-aware of how awful they are” she sighed.

“Oh my God you’re so dramatic,” Chaewon said rolling her eyes before going back to typing at her computer.

Y/N shut up and went back to try and drill a hole through Yeonjun’s head with her gaze, sadly, without any success.

As if on cue, the boy turned around, looked at her, smirked, and turned back to speak with Changbin, making her avert her gaze and awkwardly look around to find God knows what.

She couldn’t take it anymore, her heart pounding in her chest was beginning to feel like it was too much, she could literally hear it and the sensation made her shudder. She got up and headed to the bathroom searching for some quick fix to the sudden heat of her body.

As soon as she got there Y/N quickly splashed her face with some cold water to try and stop it from getting all red, failing miserably. She looked defeatedly at her reflection.

“This is a PSA for that tiny voice living at the back of my head, I am kindly asking you to shut up” She lightly hit her head with her hand in the process so that the point would go across.

“You understand me??” The girl sighed and took a step back from the sink to exit the bathroom, but as soon as she turned around a familiar face was standing leaning on the door frame.

“Try hitting it harder next time, that should work better.” He chuckled lightly before taking a step towards her.

“This is the girls’ bathroom, Yeonjun” Y/N backed up and glared at him for what was probably the thousandth time that day.

“Sorry, I was headed to the guys’ bathroom but something here caught my attention” he smirked once again.

Y/N was on the verge of breaking. That smirk. He had to know the effect it had on her. Or was it just a stupid habit of his?

It didn’t really matter. Either way, she wanted to kiss him so badly right now. And subsequently, run away, completely change identities, go to Peru, and start a potato plantation or something, to hopefully never be found again. She would never EVER admit to wanting to kiss that boy.

Frustrated even more than before, she ran back to the table where Chaewon was waiting for her, shoving Yeonjun in the process, and making him audibly laugh, clearly enjoying how easily he could fluster her.

“I gotta go, or I’m going to be late for the party,” Chaewon said the moment she saw her best friend enter her view.

“Again” Y/N added to Chaewon’s statement, knowing how long the blonde usually takes to get ready. The other girl got up and quickly added:

“Remember, I’ll be at your dorm around 10 pm, we’ll see what to do from there. Remind Ryujin too when you get home, please.” Chaewon said while collecting all of her stuff and messily throwing it in her bag.

“Sure thing, I’ll finish this chapter and go home too in a half-hour or so. Don’t worry about Ryujin, knowing her, she’ll be all dressed up already. You know who you should be worried about, though.” Y/N answered, looking up from her books.

“I already texted Karina, I told her I’d be at hers around 9:30 so she’ll hopefully be ready when we actually get there.” The girl chuckled at her best friend’s trickery and waved her goodbye, mumbling a “perfect” in the meanwhile.

On her way out Chaewon was stopped in her tracks by a slightly taller figure.

“Hey there,” he sweetly addressed the girl.

“Hi Wooyoung, I’d love to stop and chat with you but I really need to go.”

“See you at the party, then” Chaewon looked at him surprised.

“You should really stop eavesdropping other people’s conversations. Besides, you don’t even know which party we were talking about, there’s like 5 every Friday night without counting the ones outside of campus”

He gave her a playful smile and said “Don’t worry, I’ll figure it out.” The girl laughed and answered “Good luck, darling” before going her way.

After that Wooyoung quickly got back to the guys’ table where all of his friends were sitting, trying to finish some sort of group project.

“Okay, talking about important things, what do you guys know about parties tonight?” Wooyoung said, sitting down.

“You mean here in the campus? or in general? Also like, frat houses or bars?” Soobin started throwing questions at him to try and narrow down the search.

“I don't know, man, Chaewon was talking to the Menace and they said they were going to a party tonight.” Wooyoung just answered him calmly.

As soon as he heard the words “Menace” and “party” together in a sentence Yeonjun’s interest was piqued. He looked at Wooyoung, completely ignoring the semi-blank document opened in front of him.

“Well I don’t think they’d go off campus, the Menace is too lazy for that, she’d want to be as close to the dorm as possible.” Soobin started the brainstorming session.

“That still leaves like at least five or six parties” Changbin pointed out, then turned to Wooyoung and asked:

“Is it just the two of them?” to which Wooyoung quickly added Ryujin and Karina to the mix.

As soon as Karina’s name came up Changbin and Soobin looked at each other and said: “Keystone Lodge.”

“Is there something I don’t know?” Wooyoung asked given how the boys answered the place of the party seemed obvious but he had no idea.

“Karina’s boyfriend, Jeno. He’s in the frat.” Soobin pointed out.

“Okay but aren’t parties at KL like, invitation-only or something like that?” Changbin quickly raised the question.

Yeonjun, who had just started fantasizing about what could’ve happened at the party and had no intentions of having his dreams ruined just like that, said: “don’t worry guys, be prepared, I’ll text you later.” and quickly got up and gathered his things before exiting the library.

“Does he have to do it every time?” Soobin asked.

“He got it from Mark, says it gives him the surprise effect later on and the mysterious effect right away.” Changbin answered rolling his eyes, to which the other two guys only answered almost in awe with an “Ooh.” probably thinking it was the best idea a man could have.

“Okay, how did you get us in Yeonjun?” Wooyoung asked, almost alarmed at how quickly and seemingly easily their friend acquired the invitations.

“I know Haechan, and he owed me. He still does.” the older boy simply stated, raising Wooyoung's alarm instead of calming him down.

“Now let’s get this party started” Yeonjun exclaimed walking up the stairs to Keystone’s Lodge with a smirk on his face.

“You’re going to try and make her life hell, aren’t you?” Changbin said clearly amused at how his friend was planning on being even more annoying to Y/N than he usually was.

“Just wait and see Changbin, just wait and see.” the smirk on Yeonjun’s face growing with every step to the door he knocked on, where they found a guy standing alone, waiting for proof of invitations.

Inside the Frat house, the music was blasting. The air felt damp and everything smelled like cheap alcohol, adding to the mix the group of smoking boys at the far end of the room anyone could imagine that the atmosphere was not very romantic. Which is exactly what they expected.

Changbin went straight for the bar, getting everybody something to drink as the other guys scanned the room for their targets.

Wooyoung quickly saw Chaewon sitting on the couch with her friends. They were talking to a few frat guys but they seemed nonthreatening enough to his ego. The Menace was sitting dangerously close to one of them, almost in his lap. Wooyoung could not recognize the guy though, no matter how much he squinted.

He nudged his friends and with a nod pointed the scene out, hoping they would get curious and approach them, so he could flirt with Chaewon once again.

As soon as he realized what was going on, Soobin turned to look at Yeonjun’s reaction, gesturing to Changbin to hurry over, so he could witness it too because despite what those two liked to admit, they had this tension between them that was almost romantic. They were definitely, on some level, attracted to each other but they would never admit it. That’s why Changbin Soobin and Wooyoung were now staring at Yeonjun, hoping to catch a glimpse of whatever they had theorized.

Yeonjun’s brows furrowed. The night just started and everything had to be so simple already, not even a bit of a challenge. He sighed, took a drink from Changbin’s hands, and turned to Wooyoung.

“Let’s go say hi to your princess, shall we?” Yeonjun told his friend, who was very happy about the poor lighting, meaning the other boys were not made aware of his rosy cheeks prompted by Yeonjun's comment.

As they approached, Chaewon saw them and a big smile tugged on her lips. She raised a hand to say hi and the boys did the same.

“Well Well Well, I’m surprised to see little Sherlock actually did find us.” She chuckled looking at Wooyoung.

“I told you I could do it. I’m very resourceful” he winked and the girl lightly laughed.

Everybody then fell back into conversation, except Y/N and her mystery guy, who were so distracted by each other that they didn’t even say hi to the newcomers.

Yeonjun cleared his voice.

“I know you don’t like us Y/N but not saying hi is simply rude, even for you.” He smirked, knowing very well what it did to her.

The girl turned around, her surroundings didn’t make it easy to hear but she was sure she heard a voice talking to her.

From her sitting position she looked at the new figures that had joined the conversation. And then she saw his face. She simply rolled her eyes.

“Who even invited you here? Seriously, please tell me so I can avoid the lunatic all night long, people just become crazier and crazier by the day”

“Actually,” Yeonjun chuckled.

The guy whom Y/N was talking to gently removed his hands from her hips, feeling a bit embarrassed.

“I think that might have been me,” He said.

Y/N looked at Haechan with a void expression.

“You’re his friend?” She asked, not believing it for a moment.

Haechan was slightly taken aback by the question, thinking the answer to be obvious, so he simply answered:

“Yeah?” at which Y/N glared at both the boys.

“That’s a shame, I really liked you.” And with that, she got up and went to the bar to pour herself yet another drink. The alcohol was probably what made her act so suddenly with that silly explanation but even sober her had no intention of being affiliated in any way with Yeonjun.

Seeing how Y/N was behaving, the boy thought that his mission was going to be such a delight with how simple she was making it.

Yeonjun followed her, leaving behind their friends absorbed in whatever conversation, and a very confused Haechan sitting on the couch.

As Y/N approached the bar, she bumped into a few people obstructing passages left and right and leaving her even more annoyed than she already was.

She took one of the red cups and poured herself some beer.

Not the ideal drink but it was the first thing her hands were able to grasp.

As she was about to take a sip, a hand snatched her drink.

“Thanks, I was very thirsty,” Yeonjun told her, earning a glare once again that day.

“How do you manage to be so annoying Yeonjun?” Y/N said while pouring another cup, this time she grabbed some gin, sensing she would need something stronger than a beer.

“I give it my best, just for you” he grinned.

Y/N couldn’t help but groan as she looked for the soda to mix her drink.

“What did I ever do to you? Have I offended you in any way? Are you holding a grudge from your past life?? Why do you like to annoy me so much??” She sighed in defeat.

“Woah,” Yeonjun said taken aback by the sudden seriousness of the question.

“Well, for starters I could ask you the same thing…” He answered calmly.

As she started to protest he shushed her.

“Buut, I am not going to lie, I do find you very cute when you’re frustrated” He chuckled.

“Are you hitting on me?” She asked, mouth agape.

“Do you want me to be hitting on you?” There it was again. The stupidest grin on the face of the earth. If there was a way to wipe it off instantly, Y/N would’ve gladly taken that chance. Thinking about it, there was a way, and to be honest she had reluctantly considered that way many times before, but always ended up avoiding it.

A kiss was not the solution, everything it could’ve done was only create more problems.

She was snapped back to reality by Yeonjun waving his hands in front of her eyes. She had been staring at the grin for god knows how long. A faint red was starting to tint her cheeks.

“You want to kiss me so badly,” Yeonjun told her, the grin never leaving his face.

She tried to play it as cool as possible, hoping the poor lighting of the room helped her conceive the blushing situation.

“Projecting much?” She smiled turning on her heels, determined to get out of the house for some fresh air.

As she walked away Yeonjun screamed over the music.

“I never said I wouldn’t like it” Y/N briefly stopped in her tracks, surprised by the sudden confession. Thinking it was just another way of getting under her skin she slowly reached the door and opened it, stepping out onto the backyard.

“You just love messing with her, don’t you?” Chaewon said as she approached Yeonjun, Wooyoung by her side, holding her waist.

“I have a tendency not to lie, actually. Everything I said is true. She’s just… compelling” he tried to find the best word to describe her.

“Compelling? You mean messing with her like that is compelling?” Chaewon said, a bit offended that Yeonjun enjoyed toying with her friend’s emotions like that.

“Tell me Chaewon, when have I ever done anything truly bad to her? All I do is tease, in her opinion, when in reality I was always simply…” Yeonjun said, meanwhile Chaewon tried to start a list of all the times he’s gotten you frustrated and quickly realized most times it was just his very annoying, twisted way of ...

“Flirting,” Chaewon said, shocked. She looked at him straight in the eyes, her expression painted with shock.

“Oh my God, you just flirt with her” Chaewon continued. She suddenly realized that every time Yeonjun ever talked to Y/N he was flirting, and that enraged her friend for some reason. He never actually DID anything bad to her. He never insulted her, let alone take action to actively ruin her day. The only times he did something of the sort she was always with a guy, like 10 minutes ago with Haechan. Yeonjun was always just… flirting with Y/N.

“I am very confused.” Wooyoung said looking at his two friends.

“You never admitted it to us and it takes you like three seconds to tell it to her best friend? I kinda hate you and I am not sure I would like to be friends with you anymore.” Wooyoung continued while watching Yeonjun's every move and acting offended.

“It’s not like you guys ever really asked, I thought it was obvious if I have to be honest. She’s pretty, she’s smart, she can be a pain in the ass but she’s one of the nicest and kindest people I ever met. Not with me, which I can not really comprehend, but if teasing her incessantly is the only way I can get her to interact with me I don’t think I will ever stop.” Yeonjun said earnestly to his friend. A small smile appeared on his features, almost sheepishly.

A voice behind him startled him right after.

“What did he just say??” it was Changbin, who basically screamed in his ear after he heard just half of the confession.

“I think he likes the Menace!!” Soobin screamed at Changbin (and in Yeonjun’s other ear) in hopes of being understood over the loud music.

Meanwhile, Y/N was outside, freezing because she forgot to bring a jacket.

Why did he have to always be so annoying, why did he always have something to say that would just make her heart beat at a worrying speed? Why did she have to like him so fucking much?

As her mind birthed the last few words she stopped pacing back and forth on the grass.

Of course, she liked him. It seemed as if every stupid decision she could make she would take and this was not even a conscious one.

It would explain why her fight or flight response would kick in every time he would even just look in her direction, and her choice was fight.

Thinking about kissing him all those times was not just a stupid silly thought.

Y/N was hopeless.

"So?" The question was raised suddenly by a voice she recognised immediately.

He was standing right there, in front of her, handing her her jacket.

She happily took it, silently thanking him with a smile before muttering.

"So what?" her eyes looking at him defeated. She liked him and he was just playing. He was just teasing, and look where all that teasing led her. A terrible position she never wanted to be in.

"Am I getting that kiss you so badly want to give me?" Here he goes again. Non-stop teasing.

This time Y/N did not find it in her to fight, not him nor the feelings she finally realized she had.

"You should be more careful with your words Yeonjun, one might think you actually want it, crave it even" she said calmly before chuckling lightly. She was now sitting down on the bench and her gaze was everywhere but the boy's figure.

"As I said when you were storming off, I do think I'd enjoy it" he slowly sat down beside her, surprised by her tone. This felt more like an actual conversation now. It didn't seem like she had any intention of fleeing this time around. Just them two, talking like normal people. It was new and he liked it. He liked it more than words could explain.

"Stop teasing me please, I honestly don't think I can take it anymore. I won't be bothering you again if you promise me you will leave me alone without uttering any other word that you don't mean" If someone were to pass by and listen very closely, the sound of Yeonjun's heart could be heard as it was cracking and falling apart like glass under extreme heat.

She didn't want to see him anymore, but what was worse is that she didn't think his words were honest. She thought he didn't mean it, ever.

He meant it from the first smile he flashed her, from the first hello he said. The first time he saw her he was struck by lightning and did not feel like himself anymore. All he could do was think about her, all he wanted to do was to speak with her. He did not care if it meant he had to endure rolling eyes and frustrated groans, at the very least he was interacting with you.

"So?" this time she asked the question. Her eyes showed how hurt she was and he could barely look at them.

As he turned to face her, Y/N noticed tears welling up in his eyes. She didn't understand.

"You really think I don't mean it? Y/N you consume my thoughts in the best and worst way ever. I think about you all the time. All I ever want to do is speak with you and I don't care if it means you'll hate me, I won't stop doing it because I am selfish like that. I don't want to feel miserable, and the only way I have to do that is if I speak to you. You can tell me you despise me a thousand times but I won't care as long as you're in front of me, addressing me, acknowledging my presence." As Yeonjun spoke Y/N could not believe his words.

If it was just minutes ago she would've joked about how "you're so obsessed with me, jeez" but at that moment the expression on Yeonjun's face was making her want to cry. It seemed like he meant it.

He did mean it.

"You like me?" she asked, furrowing her brows in confusion.

"I think like is a bit of an understatement at this point..." he chuckled looking into the distance, the palms of his hands rubbing against each other awkwardly.

Y/N moved closer to him. He did not register how close she got until she turned his head towards her with her hand.

They stared at each other, they are not sure for how long. It could have been mere seconds or hours on end. Then she moved closer and finally kissed him.

She tilted her head as he deepened the kiss.

Everything felt good. They were finally happy.

hi you should talk more about your blue ring Pac headcanons (it's really cool and I like it a lot)

YIPPEEYIPPEEYIPPEEYIPPEE KISSING U ON THE MOUTH RN MWAH THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING ME AN EXCUSE TO TALK ABOUT HIM

ok so first and foremost as I've said I imagine him having the spots on his face neck and shoulders, i think he'd have them on all of his joints too though. The spots are normally dark yellow/brown when theyre at rest but thats BORING so i hc that the blue in his are always somewhat visible but when startled or threatened they glow brighter and expand. this video is a good visual reference (watch it its neat)

youtube

I imagine that along with the spots the rest of his skin would get a bit darker like the octopus does! i also imagine that his skin would be bumpy/textured the way they are, especially around his browbone and temples.

He can't entirely change his shape the way an octopus can, he's still mostly human in function and his muscles are as unyielding as anyone elses most of the time - but when he wants to he can stretch out to make himself look bigger and more threatening, and he's unnaturally flexible enough to slip through small cracks and crevices. it's... really freaky to watch. of course his metal leg poses a challenge since it can't be as fluid as the rest of him, but he's tricky enough to get it through most of the time. If he really needs to hide in a small space and it won't give he can always just detach it

He has crevice dweller instincts, so whenever he needs comfort or security his first instinct is to squeeze himself into the smallest space he can. He habitually piles whatever he can find outside of the space and outside of the door to his room/bases like the real life octopus piles rocks outside its home

He doesn't have tentacles, but his hands and fingers are covered in tiny almost invisible suckers that have surprising grip strength - not enough to stick him to walls spiderman style, but enough that he never drops anything and if he's holding your hand it takes notable effort to detach yourself

Blue ring octopuses carry two toxins (probably??? theres some dispute) - one that paralyses prey thats present in their saliva, and an incredibly potent neurotoxin in that they use for defense and acts both as a poison to predators and as injectible venom- they're one of the deadliest animals on earth in relation to their size. Pac has both of these but less potent, a hard enough bite from him will result in some nausea, dizziness, and weakened/paralyzed muscles if he breaks skin (his teeth are just a TINY bit too sharp to be normal by human standards, but not enough to tear through muscle) but it wont Kill you. and making out with him will give you a few spasms and a bit of weakness/dizziness - fit learns this the hard way, and pac apologizes profusely but because he's pac fit is actually really into it which is kinda weird but hey what are you supposed to do when your boyfriend has toxic saliva other than develop a kink for it (sorry for making it about fitpac it will happen again)

also because BROs carry their venom all throughout their body theyre immune to their own toxin and most other toxins in the same group, so Pac probably has a higher poison resistance than a normal human would

He's a really strong swimmer of course, unnaturally strong for how the prosthetic should weigh him down. Since he still has human shaped limbs what he does isnt quite jet propulsion, but its somwhere between that and normal swimming. I cannot describe the movement im imagining so like just watch the video and try to recreate the Vibes with a human shaped body and you'll get to the same place i am

ok that's kinda all i have there isn't really that much to go off of just because the nature of the octopus makes it kinda hard to study them in depth so we only really know the basics of their behavior, the only other thing i can think of is more of a fun fact which is that their venom is actually produced via a symbiotic relationship with bacteria that lives in their mouth! can't really do much with that in terms of applying it to a character headcanon but its pretty cool right

also i am kinda torn between the normal human mouth with toxic saliva and a normal human mouth that's actually just a front and can unhinge to reveal a horned beak and tentacles hidden inside (if u dont know octopus body plan is basically head with mouth at the bottom and then the tentacles surround it, and it feeds by using the tentacles to pull food in towards the beak which it uses to puncture it and inject venom) I kinda do love that cuz it's freaky and eldrich but on the other hand there is literally no physical way that could ever make any sense so... idk you can decide for yourself lol

thank you again for giving me an excuse to flesh out this headcanon i love it so so much im glad im not the only one that finds it interesting

He finds out you're jealous - HP boys edition

⋆ ˚｡ ⋆୨sweetpandorabox୧⋆ ˚｡ ⋆

⋘ 𝑙𝑜𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑑𝑎𝑡𝑎…⋙

A/N: Hey sexy it's Angel, I'm in the mood to do another listing style post, so this one is about what these HP boys would do when they find out that you're feeling jealous and try to make you feel better so enjoy I love you. xx

Warnings⚠️: Sexual Themes & Jealousy

Word Count : 4,440

List of Characters:

Harry Potter

Ron Weasley

Neville Longbottom

Oliver Wood

Draco Malfoy

Cedric Diggory

Fred Weasley

George Weasley

Blaise Zabini

𝐍𝐨𝐰 𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠…

Harry Potter :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

A bunch of girls a year younger than Harry was swarming him inside the great hall during lunch almost fangirling at him because he was the chosen one, they were touching his arms, playing with his hair, whispering and giggling about him and some even ask for his autograph. Harry feels awkward but he was smiley and happy to be there as you sat next to your boyfriend rolling your eyes at the sight of girls going nuts for him and eating a sandwich with a book in your hands to distract yourself from the feeling of jealousy.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

He's confused about why you're jealous at first but then figured out that it was because of all the girls that fangirl over him during lunch and apologize right away by holding you and looking into your eyes.

He'd convinced you to take a nap with him and cuddle, even if you don't want to he'd wait until you sleep before putting your head down on his chest and pulling you close to his body.

He'd try to recreate your very first date together and managed to convince you to get in on this, even putting on the same exact outfit he had on that day just to make you smile recreating the special memory.

He tries to show you off more to his friends talking about how amazing you are and how gorgeous you are, and how he couldn't be luckier nor happier than he is right now just to prove to you that you're the center of his world and that he loves you more than anyone and anything.

He tries to stay a little more lowkey to all the new students that get excited to see the boy who lived and saves those times when you aren't around just so he can focus on you when the both of you are spending time together.

Ronald Weasley :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You and Ron were sitting inside the Gryffindor's common room couch by the fireplace. The ginger boy instructs you to sit on his lap to make room for both Harry and Hermione as well, Ron wrapped his hands around your waist rubbing it warm with his hands while the four of you discuss something as a group before Katie Bell a friendly person who was very interested in Quidditch and happens to be a very kind and gentle person came up to your group to ask if the jacket she's wearing looks good for her date, everyone complimented her including you since she is a very pretty girl but Ron, in particular, was looking at her a little bit too much and was over complimenting her which made he smile at his response leaving your jealous.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

Oblivious to why you're acting cold, ignoring him, and upset at him, he had to ask Hermione and Harry why you might act this way, and when he realized that you were feeling jealous he felt terrible and pulled you aside where the two of you can be alone and apologize while hugging you tight and showers you with compliments.

Picks you up your favorite food, treats, and drinks to make you feel better because he thinks food is the way to your heart which is factual, and before he hands them over he asks for a kiss and a hug as payment.

He usually asks you for help with any kind of school work instead of relying on Hermione and Harry but since you're mad and annoyed at him right now he relies heavily on Hermione and Harry for a study session so you don't have to deal with him and only comes to you to spend time with you.

He tries his best to give you space when you want it even if it's really hard for him to stay away from you and when he does give you space he's actually always pretty close to you but he isn't sure if you've ever noticed or not, he doe this just to make sure you're okay all alone.

He always serves you some food first but after the incident, he made sure to make the food into a cute little design on your plate just to make it a little extra special and to make you smile, this morning he decided to put a smiley face on your pancake with some blueberries and syrup on top.

Neville Longbottom :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You meant to go inside the library to pick your boyfriend Neville up after he tutors a Hufflepuff girl that's been struggling greatly in Herbology. Since Neville is quite gifted at the subject professor Sprout made him help the girl, resulting in a tutoring session twice a week before dinner time between the two at first you don't mind it what's so ever, you trust your boyfriend, and the girl but today's session made you feel differently, as you made your way towards the table they're sitting at with some sugar quills, Neville's favorite sweets in hand, you watched as the girl stroke Neville's arm and play around with his fluffy hair while Neville is quite visibly uncomfortable but he blushed and kept on reading out information that the girl may not know as you watched jealousy swarms over you, turning around to wait outside the library for him instead.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

He'd feel extremally bad but kind of happy that you got jealous over that which means you care and you love him so very much so to fix it he went out of his way to go get you a bouquet of flowers, chocolates and his favorite hoodie inside a basket and he got down on his knees to apologize that he didn't say anything despite being uncomfortable with the Hufflepuff girl.

Usually the both of you would have quiet time together where you stay inside each other's dorm if you got to have it alone and would do your own things whether that's reading, studying, or listening to music just being in each other company but this time he tries to be brave and start a make-out session because he doesn't usually start anything he thought this would make you feel better.

He offers to do your homework for you, especially Herbology since you're not very good at the subject yourself, he's more than happy to usually help you out with it but since he felt bad about what happened he just offers to do the whole thing for you.

He decided to write a whole list in a form of a letter of all the things he loves and admires about you before putting it by your nightstand while you're asleep so you could read it as soon as you woke up.

He's a really good listener and loves to hear you talk about anything so he tends to ask a lot of questions every single day regarding you his girlfriend, so now more than ever he wants you to talk loads so you could forget about being jealous and also because he genuinely just care a lot about your day to day life.

Oliver Wood :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You ran over quickly towards the Quidditch pitch knowing that your boyfriend of 1 year Oliver would be there training with his fellow red and gold team, as soon as you spot them, the team was huddling in a small circle around Oliver as he shouts different strategies they'll be using to win the next game. You've arrived just in time to see him in his serious and focused mode before sending the team away to fly around the quidditch pitch 5 times to clear their head, perfect just perfect, you sneakily kiss his cheek as the smell of sweat burst in the air, Oliver was surprised at the kiss but turned around to find you smiling and is somewhat dressed nicely for just a visit, he kissed your forehead and wrapped his toned arms around your hips and asks why you got all dressed up for with a cheeky smile, the smile you had on your face is now wiped off, he'd forgotten about today so you explain dot him sadly that they're meant to go on a date today to makeup or all the time that he was to busy with quidditch or had some super intensive training with the team that he had to cancel the plans you both made, his face drops before explaining to you that he had forgotten and that the rest of his day will be all about quidditch per usual and that after he's going to have practice session with only the three chasers in the team which are , Angelina Johnson, Katie Bell and Alicia Spinnet which are all girls. You rolled your eye before leaving Oliver behind and going back to your dorm even if he was calling out after you shouting I'm sorry but ultimately he lets you go.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

At first he didn't really see what the big deal was he tried to say sorry but once you've ignored him and given him the silent treatment for 2 days he came to his senses and tried his absolute best to get you to listen to his apology and even going as far as to do anything you want him to even if you want him to quit quidditch team he would do it.

Pays all of his roommates to let him have their dorm room for the night so he can set up a projector inside his shared dorm for a very special movie night, he arranged his bed nicely, grabs the best snacks from honey dukes earlier that day and even got the both of you a pair of matching pajamas which he knows you'll be more than happy to put on in hopes you'll forgive him and let him kiss you tonight.

You've always brought up an idea to make a handshake but he's always been too busy to make one and to actually learn to remember it so this time he asks if the both of you can finally make one and despite you being upset and annoyed he got you to agree to make a really cute and long one with a kiss at the end of it.

He pretty much cancels anything quidditch related this week despite being the captain and having a match against one of the houses next week, he shuts them all out and encouraged the Gryffindor team to do some individual training or do a group on without him for a little bit so he can spend all his free time with you all day every day as an apology.

He decided to make a bucket list for the two of you, and list all the things the two of you might want to do and it has to be completed before the both of you graduated from Hogwarts this way he can balance while also managing his time as a student, quidditch captain/player, and a boyfriend well.

Draco Malfoy :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You and your boyfriend Draco were sitting inside the great hall during a free period and so did a couple other students as they all scattered around the 4 grand and large benches studying or talking quietly amongst themselves and some friends, today, in particular, was just the two of you so the both of you chose to sit on the Slytherin table near the front where the staff seating was visible and was chatting about something funny, Draco has his left arm warped around your waist and was facing you the entire time tucking loose hair behind your ear while you giggle quietly at the conversation you're having with him. All of a sudden a certain girl in a Slytherin robe marched into the part of the table the both of you were sitting on and low and behold it was Draco's ex-girlfriend who'd been unfaithful to him, she marched down to Draco's side and completely ignore your existence before saying how sorry she was and how much she wanted him back, she even dared to say that she's so much better than you were and that no one can come close to her leaving you visibly upset before she can say anymore Draco pulled her aside and talked to her quietly holding her right wrist before she takes off giving you a dirty look.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

Watch as you get all mad and annoyed over being jealous before he states that he doesn't like your attitude/tone and that he's going to fix it for you if you don't fix it yourself soon, then he proceeds to grab you by the neck and pin you against the wall before a make out.

He gives you multiple hickeys on a very visible spot on your neck and says that this is a mark reminding you that he only wants you and you only, he's also doing this to show the others who you belonged to.

He'd get you a piece of very expensive jewelry as a sorry gift and proceed to genuinely apologize for making you feel that way as it was not his intention to do so.

He'd verbalize the word I love you a little bit more after that, even saying it in public and Infront of his friends as he didn't care how cheesy it might look to them as long as you're happy, he's happy.

From then on he ignores his ex and pretends that she doesn't exist and only focuses on you, sitting beside you in the classes you have together, sitting with you during meal times, and openly doing PDA or cuddling in the Slytherin common room's couch.

Cedric Diggory :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You and Cedric were walking hand in hand out from Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom as it was the last class of the day, the both of you discussed something quite funny that happened during class heading straight for the middle courtyard where you and Cedric group of friends are usually gathered and sitting on the grass area together. The both of you spot your group before settling down to sit with them, you and Cedric sat next to each other of course but today he asked if he can lay his head on your lap as he was feeling a bit tired, his request put a smile on your face as you pat your lap free just for him and once you do he didn't hesitate to lay down. Today seems to be a perfect day, all the classes you've had today were easy and smooth, and the sun was shining nice and bright which made the outdoors exceptionally warm and beautiful but before you can appreciate all the good things a familiar-looking girl has made her way towards the group, it was your bully, she's been picking on your ever since 3rd year and was disappointed that the guy she's madly in love with for years had fallen in love with you instead. She called out Cedric's name loudly silencing the rest of the group as she went on to say how much she loves him and how he deserves so much more than somebody like you, but all Cedric did is told her to go away and that no one could come even close to somebody like you, you are irreplaceable to him, the girl left crying her eyes out leaving an awfully awkward silence within the group but keeping your jealous visible.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

He'd smile about it and think about how cute it is that you got jealous even though he stands up against your bully and would try to kiss you and hug you trying his best to apologize without giggling at your adorable face.

When it's raining outside despite it being cold and you still being annoyed and mad at him he takes your hand and begs you to come outside with him, and once you do he pulls you by the waist close to his and kisses you in the rain.

He usually writes you a love letter once a week but after this incident, he likes leaving cute little notes as well whether it's inside your books, on your bedside table, or even under your pillow just to make you feel special.

He sets up a little picnic in the tree areas near the great lake with some of your favorite foods and a scrapbooking activity with photos, mementos, and little notes from all the times you both did something special together.

He'd take you to the perfect bathrooms for a nice relaxing bath together while making sure no one will come in when you two are in there, he even lights up some candles, throw some flower petals into the bath water, and have 2 glasses of pumpkin juice ready so you can forgive him fully.

Fred Weasley :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You and Fred have been dating for a little over 6 months now and one of the perks of dating the Weasley twins is that they're hilarious and love to make people laugh and smile through their crappy yet clever jokes or mischievous pranks and with a perk comes a con, and the cons of dating the Weasley twins is that most people take fond of them as well, wanting to be their friends or even date them, especially younger girls. The clock inside the Gryffindor common room strike 8:30pm as the sound of soft and feminine giggles roars through the couch area leaving you irritated, looks like Fred has found a cure to his boredom. You've been studying for about an hour now and you don't like being interrupted while studying so you usually instruct your boyfriend to go do something fun by himself with George until you finish but looks like he decided to wait on the couch before a couple of younger girls below him swarms him asking to hear some of his jokes, some was sitting quite close to him, some girls was whispering about him and some even warp themselves around his arm, you whip your head around form the desk beside the couch to find the feeling of jealousy very much present in your heart.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

At first he was laughing because he thinks it's funny and cute that you're jealous but when he realized you're really upset at him he got worried and apologized while trying to pull you into a hug.

He tackles you, plays fight, and picks you up like a sack to make you laugh and make you feel better even if you just pushed away and he won't let you go until you laughed.

He puts on some music on his shared phonograph with George and plays your favorite music before getting you to slow dance with him.

He gives you options to hit him or humiliate him Infront of others because he felt really bad for making you feel this way and he isn't worried that you'll seriously hurt him because he knows that you won't do that despite being mad and annoyed.

He surprises you by asking his mom if you can stay in the burrow with Harry and Hermione during the winter break and maybe if she could knit you a sweater as well of course, she accepted because Molly loves you and thinks you're the best match Fred could ever get, which leads you into forgiving Fred.

George Weasley :

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You and George were sitting inside the library trying to study for an upcoming History of Magic pop quiz in tomorrow's class, well tried to study anyway, but George wouldn't stop rubbing your thigh under the library wooden table and even trying to get under your school skirt but you kept his hands very much innocent and away from your skirt not allowing him to go further, it made you giggle like crazy but he pretends to stay focused on his A History of Magic textbook smirking to himself when you weren't looking. After about an hour you ask George if he can find a book about all the past ministers of magic which he can find on the shelves right in front of the table the both of you were sitting at, he agrees and gives you an mhm not forgetting to plant a kiss on your cheek before getting up trying to find the book you needed. Not long after a girl who's known to be one of the Weasley twin's biggest fans is looking at all the books on the same shelves as George, but let's be honest here she knew what she was doing, she's trying to get close to George and interact with him completely ignoring the fact that he has a girlfriend right there on the table. She pretends to try and reach for the books on the very top shelves knowing she couldn't reach them. George noticed her struggles right away before reaching for the book she was amazing for, here you go he says handing her the book with his pretty smile, you watch the whole ordeal play on before the girl blurted out the word thank you, Georgie, and got on her tippy toes kissing his cheek leaving George flustered and confused by a surprise leaving you incredibly jealous and upset.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

Is so compassionate and apologize right away that you felt this way and just try to listen to your concern and worries before kissing and attacking you until you smile a little or at least giggled.

He knows you love messages, especially ones from him after a long and stressful day of classes but he decides to offer you one every night after the incident with the girl to make you feel so much better and would hopefully forgive him sooner or later.

He turned to his mom for help by asking her in a form of a letter to knit a matching jumper with a big heart right in the middle of it just for you which Molly agrees to do since she's very fond of you and George together as a couple, it took her a bit of time but eventually, she mailed it over to Hogwarts to him so he can give it to you.

Let you do whatever you want to him so you can forgive him and pretty much begs for you to pick something, he'd rather you do that than give him the silent treatment plus the death stare.

Piggyback you in public or carry you around school walking to class or meal times because that's what you've requested and doesn't complain once, even though his back is starting to hurt from doing this all day every day, as long as you're happy and have forgiven him he's relived and will keep his mouth shut about the body aches.

Blaise Zabini:

Why you get jealous 👇🏻

You and your boyfriend of 6 months Blaise are sitting on one of the Slytherin's common room leather couches, holding each other close and talking to a few friends that were around there as well, after a few minutes those friends left the both of you alone heading up towards their room to start getting ready for bed, as all of you wish each other a goodnight one of Slytherin girl who just came into the dungeons was collecting mail form the owlery gathering a few other students letter as well and handed one addressed to Blaise himself before moving on to the others who's also received letters, he gave the girl an appreciation nod before tearing open the letter after looking at the information in front, informing him on who it's from. The sound of parchment being ripped apart caught your attention back to your boyfriend, you look curiously at the letter before asking who it's from, your guess was his mother or perhaps his grandmother, but Blaise excitedly smiles and says that it's a very special letter form one of the most amazing girls he'd ever known beside yourself. Your face displayed sheer confusion before your boyfriend blabbered on about how she was his childhood friend who's currently attending Beauxbaton academy of magic, he was talking about how brilliant she was, how beautiful she is and how much the both of them adore each other and had the same amount of love for expensive jewelry. He read the letter after blabbering and kept a joyful smile on his face leaving a slight feeling of jealousy blooming in your heart, you didn't want to feel this way as she was only just a friend but the way he talked about her pushed you over the edge.

When he finds out you're feeling jealous 👇🏻

At first, he was confused as to why you're acting like this but then understood after a bit of thinking he tried to explain to you that he doesn't like her in any way more than platonically, she's his childhood best friend after all and tries making it up to you by taking you on night walks every single night just the two of you before bed which he knows you'd absolutely love. He also made sure to apologize during the walk where the stars and the moon twinkle brightly at the top of the blackened sky above the both of you to make it romantic.

He Suspires you with a romantic dinner in hopes you'll forgive him fully for the incident that happened.

He takes you out shopping in Hogsmeade during the weekends and pays for everything that you've put in your basket and even encourages you to get more and more things to keep you happy and because he's more than happy to spend his money on you not worrying about running out or anything due to the mass amount of money his mom's exes have left them.

He set up a self-care day for you by painting your nails and styling your hair making you feel special and beautiful while letting you feel relaxed at the same time under his care.

He lets you have a girl's night to forget all about the incident and picks you up afterward walking you to your dorm room safely.

Well alright, someone said yes, so I’ll post the designs

Warning, these are kind of old and not very good art. Or maybe I’m just being self critical, some of it I think still looks neat

Let’s start with the ones that I made look cool and drew both the Stand Human and Human Stand

Unfortunately I could never figure out a Stand design for Okuyasu, so he only has his half done

Why does the lettering actually look kind of cool…like it doesn’t look half assed at all like it normally does. Maybe because I was intentionally trying to make it look cool

I made Joseph a scarf because I remember his scarf being a notable part of his design. Also Hermit Purple was vines, so equal treatment

Giorno looks like that because I recall at the time some people saying how Golden Experience looked like young Haruno but GER looked more like current day Giorno, so I kind of took that idea and made him look like Haruno, though maybe I took things too literal. Also that’s why Oro looks like GER. Also Oro is supposed to have a somewhat unsettling stare, since people say GER looks kind of creepy

Also another thing I want to mention about Polnareff, specifically his name, so that’s not an 80s song, that’s from 2014, it’s the name of a song from a French artist I liked. So realistically it probably wouldn’t be used but I thought it sounded cool. And hey, the song itself samples a Michael Jackson song, so eh?

Anyways, so something I should mention about this style, so at the time I was obsessed with this other artist’s, @droolingdemon style, and I tried desperately to recreate it. I think by this point I just tried to integrate it with my current style, but that’s why the art style looks the way it does. I might make another post about the subject on its own though

Anyways, onto the Chibi style Stand humanizations

I’ll just list some things I remember from their characters

So I did eventually consider turning Purple Haze into a dog, I think specifically a greyhound, but I didn’t know how to draw dogs, so that never happened

Stone Free never takes off those sunglasses and never lets anyone see what she looks like under them. As it turns out, she’s actually blind, and this would be revealed around the snail part in the story (assuming there are still snails), as she’s unaffected, and I believe she’s told to drive a car because of it, but she can’t, and when asked why, she says it’s because she’s blind (and that this was probably a bad time to relay that info)

The three in the last pic are all different characters who end up sharing the same Stand as it gets passed around between them. Whitesnake is part of the prison staff, C-Moon is just an unfortunate young lady who just happens to get stuck with the Stand after something happens to Whitesnake, and Made in Heaven is I think a horse rider who gets the Stand from C-Moon, probably forcibly taking it from her (and she likely dies) as he knows what it is. Also, Whitesnake and Made in Heaven were dating

Oh yeah, also the first Standswap art I did, which was also Chibi style, I just singled it out because of that

Featuring Star Platinum and The World. Not sure I ever found a definitive design for The World, but maybe I did in my sketchbook

Anyways, so then we have some random headshot ones I did

Let’s see, in the first one we have GER looking ominous, Purple Haze, the blushing one is Tusk Act 1, and buns is Ball Breaker. Then for the second one we have Whitesnake, Under World, Killer Queen and Scary Monsters

I believe one thing I did for the Part 7 swap storyline was to have Tusk have a journey of slowly transitioning from a woman as Act 1 to a man as Act 4. I know I’ve drawn Act 4 Tusk but I think it was in my sketchbook, so I cannot show it. Also I believe Ball Breaker was trans too, just male to female, and where Tusk got the idea that you can just be your preferred gender if you want. Also note that at the time, I did not actually really understand how transitioning worked. Though to be honest, I think the main thing was that I didn’t know hormones existed, or that transitioning could be more than just making yourself look like your preferred gender

Anyways, on to Scary Monsters. I believe he rode horseback without a saddle. Also, he started out with one Stand (Dr Ferdinand) but then got another (Diego)

Then with Killer Queen, I believe he was a mute cop. But also secretly a serial killer. Also he might have had a cat like face

And yeah, I think that’s about it, hope you liked it

[edit 12/27] Hey go reblog this instead thx

It’s a really fucking boring party. Phillip is here purely for lack of anything better to do, including sitting on his couch and binging Parks and Recreation, which he’s done three times this year already.

(Lyndie glared at him when he demurred yet again, but then softened.

“Babes, I know it’s been hard on you, but you have to get out there. Not in a find yourself a nice rebound way, although I do think it would be beneficial, but you have to get out and talk to people.”

“And who exactly am I going to talk to, love?” He was fine with Tim getting pretty much the entire friend group after the breakup initially, but it was real fucking depressing looking at his contacts and realizing there wasn’t anybody who wanted to hear from him.

“Somebody. Anybody. Not everybody in the fucking world is part of Tim’s circle.” Lyndie’s trying her best, bless her, but that’s what sisters (or close as) do, right? It’s not fair to her to be his one social lifeline.

“All right. For you.”

She beamed that damnable grin that makes everybody fall over themselves to do what she wants, him included, and kissed his cheek. “Thanks babes. You won’t regret this.”

“We’ll see.”)

It’s an exhibit opening, and now that Phillip’s looked at the art (pedestrian, derivative) and nibbled at the platters (Costco, of all things. Not that they’re bad, but absolutely not in keeping with the atmosphere), he’s taken his plastic glass of Three Buck Chuck to find a corner to people-watch.

In the back next to the one actually interesting sculpture, he nods to a man dressed in the most fascinatingly archaic suit. No, that’s not the right word. It’s like he bought all his clothes at one time and never bothered to replace them because they really don’t make them like they used to. They’re at least forty years out of style, but they fit well.

Phillip takes a sip of the wine. Oh god, he’d forgotten how awful this plonk is, not really being a person who frequents places where the quantity of alcohol is more desirable than the quality.

“I regret I don’t have a fine vintage to offer you, but this has to be better than whatever swill they’re providing.” The other man holds up a flask, smiling. He’s not exactly handsome—his eyes are too small and his ears stick out too much for that, but he has a sharp, curious demeanor that makes Phillip want to know more.

He takes the flask, ignoring how their fingers brush, and downs more than is probably polite. It’s whiskey of some sort, burning sweet on the way down.

“Thank you,” he says, handing it back. “It is very much an improvement.”

The man screws the lid back on, puts the flask back in his jacket pocket. “A fine bourbon, American of course. Certainly other countries produce it, but it never tastes quite right. Like a bagel made outside of New York.” His accent is something Phillip has heard but never actually encountered in person, almost parodic in its intensity. It’s fascinating.

“They do make bagels elsewhere. And they’re nothing like the ones in New York.” Phillip says, just to be a shit.

“Indeed, and I do not mean to impugn their quality. But I suppose we latch onto the examples we first encounter as the ideal.” He puts out his hand. “Benoit Blanc. If we’re going to have a conversation I suppose we should get a little more acquainted.”

“Phillip Owen.” The other man’s hand is warm, his grip assertive and confident.

“A pleasure, Mr. Owen.” It might be the whiskey, but Phillip swears Blanc’s voice is warmer, more friendly.

“I don’t mean to be presumptuous or rude, but your name does not strike me as particularly Southern.”

Instead of bristling in offense like Phillip expected, Blanc just smirks, a little reproving. “How quickly we forget history, Phillip.” His smile takes any sting there might have been from the words.

“Now that I’m to get a lecture it’s Phillip?” He keeps his voice light. This is probably the most interesting conversation he’s had in a long time, which is probably a bit sad when he thinks about it, but he’s a little buzzed from the whiskey and he’s enjoying himself much more than he thought he would tonight.

“Lecture is such a stuffy word. Call it a gentle reminder of things that should be more prominent in your memory.” Blanc’s kind of a shit too, and god help him, Phillip is into it.

“Then tell me what I should remember, Benoit,” he says, as gravely as he can.

The other man winces, like he’s physically pained. “I hate that name. By the love of whatever you consider holy, Blanc, please.”

Impulsively, he reaches for Blanc’s hand. “I’ll call you whatever you like if we get out this stuffy hellhole into a place with better liquor and a place to sit.” Is it forward? Absolutely. But it’s been a long time since he’s had anybody besides Lyndie to talk to, and he didn’t realize how much he missed it until now.

Blanc looks a bit surprised, but his mouth curls slow into a smile that might promise something more. “That sounds like a wonderful idea.”

You can find 1st part and request here

PJSK girls with reader who loves art part.2

⊱ you asked Emu to pass you something from your desk and that's when she noticed some of your drawings laying around or she accidentally looked into the wrong spot and found them

⊱ she'll definitely ask if she can hang at very least one of your drawings next to her bed, desk or even on the fridge

"These look so Wonderhoy! Can I keep one of them? Pretty please! I promise to take good care of them!"

⊱ if you only like drawing and not drawing yourself then she'll ask some people for the best art exhibitions available and trust me when I say she finds only the best ones

"Someone recommended me this exhibition! They said that it's really big, and my brothers even told me they were there once!"

⊱ Nene put one of her games at your desk and then while picking it up, she saw a peek of your drawing and couldn't help her curiosity and asked you about it, and if you let her, she'd also like to have a little look at your art

⊱ once she discovered that you can draw, she compliments you a lot and later on she decides to ask you if you can draw her comfort character from one game she really liked, she wanted to ask you about it at the beginning but didn't wanted to make a fuss over it so it took her some time to say it out loud

"Hey, it's alright if you don't want to but... would you mind drawing this character? It can even be a quick sketch if you want!"

⊱ if you don't like drawing yourself but so enjoy art, she may not look eagerly for art exhibitions but she does show you art she found on internet to know your opinion since you can catch many interesting details

"What about this one? It doesn't have that detail you don't like, does it?"

⊱ Kohane showed you a lot of her photos even tho she was a little shy about it at first so why wouldn't you show her your drawings as well? So she got to know your passion thanks to you telling her

⊱ she'll compliment every single one of your drawings and if you ever would have no inspiration, she'd love to show you some pretty places or show you some of her photos as references for your art

"How about this place that I took picture of? We can go there tomorrow and you can paint the scenery there!"

⊱ if you don't like drawing but do enjoy art, she'll try her best to find some art exhibitions but it may take her a while since she wants to make sure that they're going to be enjoyable for you

"I found an art exhibition that will have place in this city and it seems pretty good! Would you like to have a look there with me?"

⊱ An saw some of your sketches that you drew when you were waiting for her to end all the cafe work she had to do

⊱ of course she complimented your art if she saw it and if you will draw some easy art, she'll also try to recreate it ar your coffee

"One special coffee inspired by my pretty artist! How do you like it? Do you think I recreated it right?"

⊱ if you don't like drawing yourself but do enjoy art then be ready she'll ask every single person she knows and customers if they know any good art exhibition, and then will share them with you

"So they told me that there will be an art exhibition around next weekend and it sounds super good!"

⊱ you often have lazy dates with Kanade when the two of you work on your own things, and on one of those dates she catched you looking at some drawings, and was interested so she decided to ask you a little more about it

⊱ she will always give you her honest opinion and express how your drawings make her feel, even if she doesn't like the style or theme you're going for, she's still very supportive

"When I look at it I feel like I'm being comforted by angel... it's a food thing of course!"

⊱ if you like art and not drawing yourself, she'll find some art on internet and show you them since she won't go on any art exhibitions with you

"I found some arts that have similar style to those drawings you liked. So how do you feel about them?"

⊱ Mafuyu discovered your passion for art also thanks to you since you're the one who talks the most in your relationship

⊱ she will often compliment your art but she also won't hold back what she thinks about it. She also will say what she feel about it if she does feel anything

"I don't see anything bad about it but... I feel something... fuzzy in my chest... I don't think it's a bad thing tho."

⊱ if you don't like drawing but do enjoy art, she'll find some art exhibitions through her friends, classmates and maybe even teachers, and best thing is her mom will definitely let her go there with you

"I found some art exhibition that even my art teacher recommended me so it can be good. Would you like to go there with me this weekend?"

⊱ Ena showed you her drawings so naturally she discovered your passion for art pretty quick, be it that you told her or she found some drawings laying on your desk

⊱ first thing that came to her mind are drawing dates, be it that you two draw the same scenery or each other, and if you agree she couldn't be happier

"Really?! You'd like my idea about art date? Ah, I can't wait for that! Let's go to that one park I recently have been in with my group!"

⊱ if you don't like to draw but do like art, she'll always ask for your opinion about her art before she sends it to anyone else or post it anywhere

"What do you think about this drawing? Should I add or change anything? It just doesn't feel right..."

Drawing the Rest of the Copy Ability Stars, Round 1!

I wasted a lot on this... so let's get this show on the road!

Yes, there are oh-so-many abilities that are canon in Technician Uprising, but HAL doesn't bother making ability stars for them. And so, as an AU owner... I have a full reign to design all of them! I am going to comment on each of them as well! Click down below to learn more about the process of making each star and what I think about the ability overall.

From top left to bottom right:

Balloon - The first one I draw overall (and the first ability fully illustrated, though I wanted to design Light fully first). This ability really just appeared in Canvas Curse, which is canon to TU, and due to a totally not secret plan of mines, I had to turn this into a full-fledged ability. Honestly. It just existed for Canvas Curse, so I hope the revamp moveset will give it a bit more versatility outside just "haha easier to control ball go brr".

Light - The MOST underused and underrated ability, FIGHT ME. God I love the concept of Light being used as a power but MAN. BIGGEST OOF FOR THIS ABILITY. Literally exists as early as in Adventure and was left for the slumps, never to be adapted. Watch as I make this a permanent use ability. I had to check the illustration of this ability in Adventure to get the icon.

Metal - Once again taken here due to a due to a totally not secret plan of mines. Honestly this is just Stone but Stone Change is always on. But I'll figure out what to do with it. And no, we're not using the scroll's additional ability, that's just Ball (which is also here in this round). I really just ctrl+c ctrl+p the icon from Squeak Squad directly.

Missile - Oh I would make this a Technician Mode... IF JET DOESN'T HAVE F^CKING MISSILE SALVO, making this ability UTTERLY OBSOLETE. Thanks HAL, but okay. Honestly it's pretty... eh. Maybe I haven't seen it too much in action. Also redrawing the Missile was. Hm. Okay I guess. I struggled setting up stroke thickness and setting since I'm limited to two colors and I don't want it to look weird, but the flame exhaust effect on the back is nice.

Bubble - I would make this a Technician Mode but at the same time I'm not so sure, it's already perfect enough to, you know, not change much... while the point of the modes is to EXACTLY twist the abilities' skills in a sense (at least for Technician. Idk. Most of Robobot Armor's ones are just normal attacks with bigger damage™ and that's it). Thank you Squeak Squad icons for saving me once again. Btw, Animal aside, this is my favorite ability in Squeak Squad. Though I'd change it to just trapping opponents in bubbles in my AU perhaps. Idk, turning them immediately to ability stars sounded... OP?

Ghost - Hahahaha spooky. I would also make this a Technician Mode... except I have an OC with Technician + Ghost with a rather complicated backstory, so, uh, no. I tried drawing a ghost, ends up just being frustrated because the proportions aren't right, but hey I did it!

Freeze - I cheated from Air Ride. Anyways, I guess I remember a Kirby gijinka artist (KirbyTardos, if I recall that username) who noted this might be more focused on defense, which I'll happily steal. Sir if you see this, I hope you're doing well, I should really check your comic series. Anyways... this one was supposedly fused with Ice nowadays, but whatever, it can co-exist I suppose. Trying to make it fancy but ends up giving up and settled for this.

Paint - Uhhhh... Isn't this just Artist? Nope! Decided that Artist and Paint are for two different specialties just like Ice and Freeze, in this case Artist is for precision while Paint is for R A N G E. I think their style should be differentiate too, with Artist you have the user having much cleaner, detailed art that needs thinking into it, while Paint is just. Graffiti. Go crazy. Go insane. Spread 387493743 splashes of paint to the wall of your neighbours!! I tried to recreate the icon in Super Star Ultra, but then I realized it looked wrong every single time and after more tweaking I just leave it like this. Could've done it better. Maybe I will revisit it someday.

Animal - Another one I could've done better I guess. Stealing again from Squeak Squad's icons! Tried adding a claw mark. Didn't work. F^ck. But oh well! ANYWAYS I LOVE THIS ABILITY HOW DID HAL DIDN'T ADD THIS TO FORGOTTEN LAND??? NOOOOO!!

Magic - Insert that one song from Milgram here. I love Deco*27. Anyways. Went simple with this one. Three cards and a magic hat that I stole from Squeak Squad. I also stole the colors of the illustration as we already have abilities with black and white ability stars and I doubt I can change em much to make it distinct. Yeah, yet once again taken here due to a due to a totally not secret plan of mines.

Ball - Ballin huh? You guessed it, it is, yet again, once again taken here due to a due to a totally not secret plan of mines. I don't think this one has to change a lot, it's just so goofy. I like its vibes, but I bet it will be a pain in the ass to use properly in-game somehow. Shoutout for Nightmare in Dreamland's little ability illustration for this. Also it's hard to design the ball icon itself so I went with a beach ball.

Laser - I kinda want this to be a Technician Mode, so we'll see this one with great interest! I wanted other colors but the illustration artworks only gave me colors that already exist or too close to other ability star's colors... then I realize that not all copy abilities have to share their outfit colors with the ability star, because Wing existed - it doesn't have blue but the star's blue-ish anyways! So I decided to go for pink, the color of the laser beam that was shot in the illustration!

Iron - Yes this is canon. Yes I will have to revamp this to avoid this being just Stone 2.0 but with deflect system, and in fact, I have made a full moveset from this long time ago! It's now a construct creating ability, creating simple things such as pillars and stuff. Still retains the "deflection with staff" technique and the one that reminds you of Stone Change... but I made the latter time-restricted rather than "as long as you hold it you're invisible" spiel. Anyways. The ability hat, as well as some iron blocks to hammer it to the point that HEY THIS ABILITY'S ENTIRE THING IS IRONS and not just "snek????"

Top - Went with green because that color is rare for copy ability stars, THANK GOD. It's also one that I purposely made canon because it's funny! Also young me already made a full-fledged moveset for this, thank f^ck. Tried to make it look like the top is tipping and gliding. And still spinning. Kinda looks smooth me thinks.

Baton - Oh god the ability's design itself is kinda mid imo but I'LL REDESIGN THAT JUST YOU SEE. Anyways. This is another one in the "so underused it hurts" category. For some reason the ability is one-use in the anime!!! Wow!! F^ck it!! Young me made a full-fledged moveset so WE'LL GO BY THAT THANKS. I went with pink... again... Or red... uh... I guess it's just pale dark pink, I used color picker on the staff don't ask. Tried to bring more of a Suplex vibe with a puffball holding the staff as if spinning it. S p e e n. I like the concept of the ability though, Motion Manipulation baby!

We might have more abilities on the go, but we'll see. I might move on to redrawing all Technician Modes after this. I'll also update the spreadsheet eventually with all these damn stars WAHOO.

Please enjoy ^^

P.S. if anyone wants to use these for their TU OCs, hmu and I'll give you separate version of the ability star you want!!

hey!!! loved some of your nalu headcanons and it got thinking… do you have any smutty headcanons for nalu👀

you dont have to answer if you don’t feel comfy writing smut!!

ur timing is impeccable because i am just finishing up a smut fic thats going to go up on ao3 in a few hours lol. but not only do i have hcs, i actually posted them earlier this month, but tumblr punted it into the void and it got blocked from the tags so only like. 3 people saw it. so here they are again under the cut, hopefully for more people to see this time lol

service top natsu. this one is at the start because it’s the most important

that mans favourite part of sex is watching lucy just have the time of her life while he’s fucking her

if you ask lucy what her favourite position is, she will say missionary, only because she’s too embarrassed to admit that it’s actually doggy style

the idea of being bent over her desk or her bed or her kitchen counter and getting fucked like that turns her on immensely

natsu has no preference, he just goes with whatever lucy feels like, but he really does like when she rides him because he just gets to watch her, and when she starts to run out of steam he gets to control the tempo by lifting her up by her hips and slamming her back down

or he likes to lift her up and fuck her while he’s just holding her, or up against the wall

he bites. a lot. he loves leaving hickeys on her, especially in obvious places like the top of her breasts and her neck

absolute point of contention for them tho, because when the post nut clarity hits, lucy realises that she’s going to have to cover them up later

natsu on the other hand does not think it’s a big deal and kinda thinks it would be hot if she didn’t cover it up

though he also loves to leave them in places he knows that only he’s going to see, like the inside of her thighs

lucy’s inner thighs are her ultimate erogenous zone, if he ever rests his hand so his fingers graze against her inner thigh she needs to ride him Right Then

natsu’s is on the back of his neck, and if she ever rests her hand there when they’re making out that is a sure fire way to have that makeout session end with sex

natsu is not a boob or an ass man, he is a lucy man, he loves every part of her, he has no preference

lucy is the kinky one of the two, but she also is the only one of the two with shame, so she has a really hard time broaching the subject

natsu is willing to try anything at least once, especially if it’s to make lucy happy

lucy canonically reads erotica in the ft(2020) game, and you can pry that from my cold dead hands

that’s where she gets a lot of her kinks from, and sometimes she likes to recreate scenes from her books

pre-relationship, she would imagine herself and natsu as the protagonist and love interest and would masturbate while she reads

she also had fantasies of him bending her over her desk

the only reason natsu knows this information is because after they started dating, lucy got suuuuppperr drunk and confessed to him

natsu has caught her doing that while they’re dating, and it’s equal parts great, because he loves watching her go to town on herself, but equal parts torturous because he wants to be the one going to town on her

lucy has used it as foreplay before by tying him down and making him watch her

the only reason he lasts as long as he does is because she presents it as a challenge

natsu is not completely innocent on the pre relationship front either, because he absolutely would think about lucy while he jerks off, and he only feels a little bit bad about it

he was never as dumb as everyone thinks/thought he is, and he was very conciously checking out lucy’s body every time he got the chance

they are both so loud in bed, like, have definitely had the neighbours complain loud in bed

nothing turns natsu on quite like hearing lucy moan out his name, it’s like his favourite thing in the whole world and the quickest way to turn him on

natsu is so rough, not on purpose, he’s just like that

he actually doesn’t ever want to hurt her during sex, but sometimes his brain just turns off

lucy doesn’t mind because she really likes when he finally lets go and stops treating her like she’s going to break

they have had sex in the guild hall at least once, but then again, so has every other couple in fairy tail so they’re not that special

natsu absolutely loves when she’s wearing really short skirts that give him easy access to bend her over anything and just fuck her right then

he is so impatient that they frequently have semi-clothed sex, i.e. lucy still wearing her shirt and skirt, with just her panties shoved out of the way

#nalu #mya's mumbles #the quickest i have ever answered an ask FR LOL #hope u enjoy anon #headcanons

Hey! I just finished the 4th Hornblower film! I know I’m slow; I’m pacing myself, because I’m enjoying them so much and I don’t want it to end. While the 4th wasn’t my favorite, I wasn't really expecting it to be, after the first 3 seemed jam-packed to perfection, so I wasn’t too disappointed. And there was still lots to like!

But I wanted to celebrate my milestone! : ) So my ask is: what is one highlight from each of the first four films for you? Fun moments, interesting characters, aspects of the plot you liked. Doesn't have to be your absolute favs, just things that stand out to you that help make Hornblower as great as it is!

Hello! I'm glad you're enjoying Hornblower so far. I am convinced that you will also like the next episodes. Your question is very difficult because there are really many great moments and characters in every episode. But I will try to keep it short.

Let's start with the first episode.

The Even Chance: What I particularly like about this episode is that we gets to know Horatios character. At first you think he is a clumsy and insecure Midshipman and you might think he's wrong in the Royal Navy. But the longer you watch, the more you realize that there is more of him. He is clever, brave, cunning and kind. In this episode you also get a good insight into everyday life on a ship at the end of the 18th century, which I find very interesting. A scene I particularly like is when Styles thanks Horatio for taking care of their colleague during the fight and salutes. This scene shows that Horatio has won the respect and loyalty of his crew. I love Horatio and his little crew (Styles, Matthews, Oldroyd and Finch).

The Examination for Lieutenant: In this episode I like the quarantine that Horatio and his crew have to spend on the Caroline. I hope the name of the ship is correct. Horatio has to deal with different situations and show that he is up to the task. And bonus: his straw hat. I love it! I also really like the ending scene with Captain Pellew. For me, this is where this "father-son" relationship between the two begins.

The Duchess and the Devil: The best thing about this episode is Archie's return to the series. I love the friendship between him and Horatio so much. It's so touching how Horatio cares for him in this episode. I also like Kitty Cobham. I like her cheeky and upbeat nature, which brings a bit of variety. The friendship between her and Horatio is very nice. And this episode also shows the crew's loyalty and respect for Horatio again.

The Frogs and the Lobsters: A very sad episode. I found the short love story between Horatio and MarMariette very heartbreaking. And when Horatio cried in front of Captain Pellew at the end, I also found it very touching. It shows how much the whole mission had weighed on him. Major Lord Edrington is one of my favourite characters in this episode. I wish he had shown up more. And the ending scene, when Horatio stands at the top of the masthead, is so great. He smiles again and the episode doesn't end as sadly as you first thought. But I always ask myself why Horatio isn't afraid of heights here.

So these are my favourite moments and my impressions from these four episodes. I have to mention that what I love about Hornblower is that every episode shows the development of Horatio and all the stories are great and exciting. Interesting and different characters appear in each one and shape the entire series in their own way. You also learn a lot about life in the Royal Navy at that time. The costumes are very authentic and the sea battles are fantastically recreated. In short: a masterful series. ⚓️💙

Well, I didn't really keep it brief. I'm sorry, but when I start writing, I just write and write 😅

#best series forever #hornblower #horatio hornblower #ioan gruffudd #royal navy #hornblower series

I'm having entirely too much fun designing a fake amusement park for a Changeling: the Dreaming campaign that I'll probably never get to run.

The rough idea is that in the window between Disneyland opening in California and Disneyworld in Florida, a couple of brothers with big dreams for the future of amusement parks tried to do their own thing in the Palm Beach County area (where I grew up, so I'm more familiar with the map), but the only people they could get to fund it were a Texas oil tycoon, and his wife who had ambitions in the burgeoning televangelist business, and those two insisted that the park have a Bible theme.

As usual, a giant wall of text after the cut.

It got built on a parcel of dredged out swampland, saw a trickle of interest, and eventually got shut down due to some tragic accidents (possibly caused by sabotage). There was definitely some kind of power struggle between the creators, the owners, the staff, and some outside forces. So now it's the mid 90's and this place has been sitting there for over 20 years getting reclaimed by the swamp, only getting visited by teenagers to leave graffiti and battered by the occasional hurricane. But the Changeling folk of the region know that something sinister is going on out there, because particularly weird and dangerous Chimera keep emerging from that part of the Everglades, and after a brief initial investigation they'll narrow down the search for the source to somewhere inside the park grounds.

As someone with complicated feelings about his own Christian upbringing, I'm trying to thread the needle here on making this place feel in poor taste but also feel like you could imagine why someone would have thought it was an appropriate devotional act, through a lens of too much money and too little sense. I don't want it to just be seething, caustic parody. That's too easy. I want it to look and feel like you can imagine someone building this and saying "This is good. We're doing the LORD's work here," without them being a complete foaming-at-the-mouth strawman.

Current planned attractions (names are placeholders):

THE BEGINNING: A roller coaster with a bunch of Creation of the World decorations. The most popular ride back when it was open, because the Bible elements were the least intrusive.

THE GARDEN: An Eden-themed food court area, overlooking a small zoo. The valuable animals were sold ages ago, but that doesn't stop rumors of an escaped tiger still alive in the swamp.

THE FLOOD: A riverboat ride that was built on the other side of the zoo so that Eden's animals could also be the Ark's animals.

THE TOWER: An incomplete attraction used as a storage silo, because someone was clever enough to say "Hey maybe... maybe we shouldn't re-build the Tower of Babel? How about we don't do that" once all the disasters started happening and people started getting superstitious about this place.

THE NATIVITY: A train ride that allegedly charts the course of the Wise Men on their search for the infant Christ, but it also includes a bunch of Western Christmas/Winter Festival crap that would have been totally out of place in Bethlehem.

THE CULMINATION: A "dark ride" that's the Big Money item in the park, full of top of the line animatronics (circa 1966) recreating events from the Last Supper up to the Resurrection. Log Flume style, because the worst thing I could think of was having the customary huge drop where your picture is taken while you're descending so they can sell you a souvenir photo, and placing it right after the scene at Golgotha. You know the one.

THE FABLES: So let's say you're a parent and you figure that your pre-schooler is probably not ready to see glitchy animatronics recreate the Crucifixion. Congratulations, you're officially Not The Worst Parent Ever! This part of the park is basically a big playground for little little kids, themed with explicitly Christian interpretations of Aesop's Fables. Big emphasis on the Fable of the Grasshopper and the Ants (with a whole cast of different ants with one personality trait each), who also roam the park as costumed mascots.

THE KINGDOM: The central structure in the park is a big white castle in terrible disrepair. It used to house a bunch of shops and an information kiosk, a luxury restaurant, and park offices upstairs. I may lift the floorplan for Cinderella's castle more or less exactly. This place was built in explicit response to Disneyland, after all. There is also a carousel in this area featuring biblically accurate angels, that is probably the most haunted thing in this whole place.

THE END: Another dark ride, this one themed around the Book of Revelation, and all the wildly apocryphal notions of the Rapture that have proliferated in the Evangelical world. The one ride that was intended to be a haunting nightmare vision, but comes across as kitschy and silly instead.

THE FRONTIER: The Texas oil tycoon who funded the whole thing insisted that there be an Old West Town. And then his wife insisted that it still be a Christian Old West Town, about how America is the New Chosen Land and the conquest of the continent was Ordained by God. I'm still figuring out the details. Treatment of indigenous people would be at best a token mention of benevolent missionaries bringing them into the fold, and ignore all the genocide.

THE LEGACY: A walking trail with dioramas about the journeys of Paul of Tarsus. If I cast aside my goal of presenting something authentic to the cultures and time period involved and decide to editorialize instead, it will probably be here. I have opinions about the writings of Paul, and the legitimacy thereof.

THE HEROES: A Hall-of-Presidents style animatronic theater experience featuring various prophets, apostles, and other notable figures giving brief summaries of their experience. Near the entrance, the most heavily vandalized structure in the park.

So this place would have been enough of a mindfuck when it was active, but now it's had a couple decades of getting battered by the elements and vandalized by local kids, and it's just a horrific mess. And the Changeling game would be about investigating the nightmare spirits emerging from the place, but also investigating the origins of the park in the nearby city, finding and interviewing people who were involved in its creation, hunting for blueprints in city archives to find secret passages/access tunnels that bypass some of the ruined bits, and trying to penetrate to whatever inner sanctum is churning out all these Nightmare Spirits.

Should I start paying rent in here?

Hey uh.. heard that part 3 of prof graves AleRudy love triangle was a thing.. you ever tried it? Oh you have? Any idea where it might be… no reason just uh, lil curious *dumb wink*

If you remember Kaleb has my number, cmon every one knows Kaleb. Oh how do I? We go way back man, met trying that why can’t we be more stuff! He hasn’t mentioned me? Oh yeah I used to be kinda shy but we’re good mates- what do you mean he never touched that stuff?! Course he did *sweat drop*, doubt he’d save it just for us. Maybe he just didn’t feel like sharing aye?

(I got carried away with this under cover cop thing)

I think this might be my friend, the typing style is similar and they're the only person I know who would spell Kaleb with a K. Regardless, this is my favorite bit I've ever done, please keep doing it

Did Rodolfo feel guilty about still going to see Professor Graves after his classes on Monday? Maybe. But… Rodolfo wasn’t sure if he felt so guilty towards Graves or Alejandro…

Maybe it was both.

Maybe.

But, that didn’t stop him. In fact, maybe it encouraged him, slightly, as he slowly packed his things, watching the other students leave. He’d stuck his camera in his bag, in case it was something he wanted to take a picture of, deciding to learn his lesson from Saturday.

Sunday… Sunday had been wonderful. He’d woken up to a hot breakfast and he’d woken up entirely too late. But, apparently Soap had canceled on him, so… Something to do with Ghost. Rodolfo hadn’t minded, he’d spent the day with Alejandro.

He wondered how long this would last. He was getting so much more attention than he’d ever gotten before and he knew it wouldn’t last, but… how much longer would he have? He didn’t know. Did he want to?

Rodolfo shook off the thought and went down to Professor Graves’ desk when everyone was gone. “You said you had something to show me?” Was he skipping his next class for this? Maybe.

“I do!” Graves grinned, looking up from his laptop. “I already talked to the teacher of your next class, so you don’t have to worry about that. You’ve been excused.”

Rodolfo relaxed and nodded. He loved the way Graves seemed to consider everything. He was so sweet and thoughtful… Alejandro was sweet, too, but he was impulsive and maybe a bit immature. Though… Alejandro was one for small details. Tiny things. Why was he comparing them? He didn’t know.

“That’s great.” Rodolfo finally said, smiling. “What is it?”

Graves stood and led him to his office where Rodolfo frowned as he saw something large and covered in a cloth. He watched his professor pull down the cloth and then he was staring at the same painting as from the book. “It’s a recreation, of course. But… I thought you’d want to see it before I had it sent to the museum.” Graves explained, turning to look at him.

“It’s…” Rodolfo was in awe. He went to the painting, looking over it, at all of the detail. He and the royal really did look so strikingly similar. Every part of them was the same, save for the royal’s hair, which was a lot wavier than Rodolfo was willing to let his get. “It’s beautiful.” He finally said.

The painting was large enough that Rodolfo and the Royal had a perfect equal scale, a 1 to 1. He jokingly posed the same, resting his left hand on his stomach and his hand on where the large ruby of the necklace would be, before turning and looking at Graves. “What do you think? Think I’m a good substitute for the real thing?”

“You’re almost a carbon copy.” Graves laughed before coming over, adjusting his pose ever so slightly. “There. Perfect. Hmm… I wish you had the jewelry on, I’d get a picture.”

“I have a polaroid camera in my bag,” Rodolfo confessed, dropping the pose and shaking his head. “I don’t really take pictures of myself.”

“Why not?” Graves frowned. “That’s a crime, you’re too beautiful for that.”

Rodolfo blushed dark red, his brain failing to work for a moment. It only got worse as Graves reached up and brushed some hair from where it had fallen in front of his eyes. “I just… never get the chance. Soap doesn’t really take pictures of me and it’s hard to take pictures of myself with that camera.”

Graves tilted his head before shrugging. “I’ll fix that.” He grabbed a chair from nearby, placing it in front of the painting and then smiling. “Sit.”

Rodolfo blushed but did as told, curious what he was doing. He frowned when he watched Graves rummage in his bag and then he was pulling the camera out and setting it on his desk. Then, he came over and helped Rodolfo pose and Rodolfo found himself blushing darker as he realized Graves was posing him like the painting.

He held the pose, keeping his face neutral like the painting, and then he looked at Graves, managing not to flinch at the flash. When it was done, Graves took the picture and held it, coming over. “Did you know that you didn’t need to shake old polaroids?” Graves asked when he came over.

Rodolfo frowned. “No, I guess I didn’t… I um… I’m only 20. I didn’t… own a polaroid camera.” He winced, waiting for the typical comments that millennials and really anyone over the age of 30 made towards anyone under the age of 25.

“Makes sense. They became pretty much obsolete by the time you would have been getting a camera. This polaroid snap is pretty good, I like the specifications.” Graves smiled and then held out the picture.

Rodolfo blinked at his words and then relaxed. Of course Graves wouldn’t make those comments, he was too mature for that. He smiled and took the picture, looking at it. The picture made him realize just how similar he looked to the royal, touching over their faces. Well, he already knew, but it was still just uncanny. “Thank you…”

“Of course.” Graves nodded and then Rodolfo was jumping at another flash. “This one will be mine.” He chuckled, taking the picture and then handing Rodolfo the camera back. “You looked too darling, I had to.”

Oh, Rodolfo’s skin turned dark red from that statement. He had to look away as he took the camera back, again thanking Graves. He went to his bag and put the camera in it, as well as tucking the picture in a pocket.

“You know… I was thinking.” Graves came over, wrapping his arms around Rodolfo’s waist from behind. Rodolfo melted as Graves kissed the back of his neck, closing his eyes. “I should take you out. The museum is great and all but… I’d really like to take you out. I know this bar…”

“I’m 20.” Rodolfo reminded, shivering as Graves lightly nipped at the back of his neck, before turning around in his arms. “My ID says I’m 20.”

“Don’t worry about that.” Graves shook his head. “They’ll let you in. As long as you’re with me… They’ll let you in.”

Rodolfo blushed. “You’re not going to be responsible and keep me from drinking?” He teased, though he didn’t care. Rodolfo had drank before. He’d drank a lot before…

“You won’t be drinking.” Graves laughed. “Neither will I, likely. The food is good and it’s a little more classy than the typical bar. Only a little. How does that sound?”

Rodolfo paused and then smiled. Of course he’d go. “Yeah.. I like that. When?”

“Friday?” Graves asked and Rodolfo nodded. “Perfect! I’ll text you when I’ll be picking you up.” He kissed Rodolfo’s cheek before letting him go. “I look forward to it.”

“Me too…” Rodolfo melted and then waved before grabbing his bag and leaving.

Rodolfo was hanging out with Gaz, his other friend. Why? Well, Soap had blown him off again for Ghost. He could only imagine what they were doing. “So…” Gaz said as he took his hair down out of the towel he was using. Gaz had used Rodolfo’s shower, since his was apparently broken. “Soap told me you were with Professor Graves on Friday.”

“Of fucking course he did.” Rodolfo muttered, already irritated. “Look, if you’re here to judge me-”

“I’m not.” Gaz assured, sitting on the other side of the coffee table and taking a bite of the pizza he’d brought over for them. “Actually, I think it’s great. Gets you away from Alejandro.”

Neither Gaz nor Alex, Gaz’s boyfriend, seemed to like Alejandro much. Of course… neither would give Rodolfo a straight answer on why. Even before he and Alejandro had started to distance, they just didn’t seem to like him. It was odd, but Rodolfo had given up on trying to find out why. “Well… No. Because Alejandro and I hung out on Saturday.”

“Ah.” Gaz frowned and then went quiet, looking down at his pizza for a moment. “Well… Are you going to go fully back to Alejandro?”

Rodolfo winced. He didn’t know. “I… Have a date, I think, with Professor Graves this Friday.” He paused when his phone buzzed, blushing when he saw it was Alejandro, who’d sent him a picture of a flier for a concert on Saturday. A candlelit symphony. He melted when Alejandro sent a Want to go? And immediately sent back that he would. “And a date with Alejandro on Saturday.” He smiled and showed Gaz the picture.

“That’s sweet.” Gaz nodded and furrowed his brows. “So… You’re going to go out with both?”

“One or both will lose interest in me, eventually.” Rodolfo shrugged, not really that concerned about it, at the moment. “So… I’m enjoying it while I have it.”

“I see.” Gaz nodded, frowning again. “I… I’m happy for you. I’m glad you seem to be getting some attention. You need it, mate.” He smiled at Rodolfo and touched his hand before sighing. “Why did Soap blow you off again?”

Rodolfo hesitated before sighing. Gaz and Soap seemed to be getting along less and less. It started with Gaz getting with Alex and then Soap got with Ghost and… neither of them hung out unless Rodolfo suggested something. Even there, it was tense the whole time. “Ghost. He’s busy with, you know, being a rockstar. So… I don’t know.”

“Of course he is.” Gaz rolled his eyes. “That sucks, I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay.” Rodolfo smiled. “It means I get to hang out with you.”

“That’s true.” Gaz nodded, grinning. “And I like hanging out with you.”

Rodolfo relaxed, nodding. “I like hanging out with you, too. How are Alex and Farah? Well, and Malika.”

“They’re great!” Gaz perked up. “Though, Farah and Malika are honestly kind of gross. Farah always has her in her lap and they are constantly touching! Not in any sexual way, but if Malika gets within five feet of Farah, Farah just has to start touching her and grabbing her.”

Rodolfo laughed, loudly, since he remembered Alex and Gaz being the exact same way when they got together the year before. Alex constantly had his hands on Gaz and Rodolfo remembered he and Soap teased Gaz about it, endlessly. “Reminds me of someone.”

“Hey, we weren’t this bad.” Gaz blushed. “Or… I don’t remember us being this bad.”

Rodolfo rolled his eyes, since they had, indeed, been that bad. “Sure.” He pat Gaz’s arm and then put his elbow on the table. “And Alex has been doing okay?”

“Yep! Better than okay.” Gaz nodded and melted. “He’s perfect. I love him so much… We’re already at a year and I feel like we still just started dating.”

“I’m glad to see those rose colored glasses still haven’t came off, then.” Rodolfo nodded, really happy for his friend. Alex was a really great guy and Gaz deserved that. “Hey, do you think you could come over and help me dress for this date on Friday?”

“Of course.” Gaz beamed. “Why not ask Soap, though?”

“He’s going to flip his shit if I tell him!” Rodolfo immediately said. “Besides, he’s busy this Friday. All week, in fact. I’ll barely see him.”

“Good.” Gaz muttered, sighing. “It’s none of his business who you date.”

Rodolfo definitely agreed. He shook his head and looked down at his plate, tracing the edge of it. He didn’t understand why Soap was judging him so hard. “No, Rudy, look at me.” Rodolfo looked up, startled. Gaz’s expression was intense. “I mean it. It is none of his business. He, of all people, should not be judging who you choose to date. Got it?”

Rodolfo frowned but nodded. “Yeah… I got it.” He blushed, confused why Gaz was suddenly so intense. “I mean, besides Ghost-”

“Ghost is the reason.” Gaz groaned. “He… runs with a really bad crowd, is all I will say. And Soap knew before he started to date him that he did. Don’t let him tell you otherwise.”

Rodolfo blushed but nodded. “Okay…” He frowned more, now even more confused. Why hadn’t Soap ever told him that? But, he shrugged it off and got up. “Want to see what Graves gave me?”

“Sure!” Gaz smiled, seeming to relax a bit.

Rodolfo went to his wardrobe, which had been issued by the college, and opened it, looking for the blue jewelry boxes and frowning when he couldn’t find them. Odd… He’d put them in there… He looked through his drawers before suddenly getting a hunch.

Oh, he’d fucking kill him.

Rodolfo went to Soap’s wardrobe, looking in the bottom drawer, and then making an irritated sound when he found the jewelry boxes. He took a picture of them and sent it to Soap. You’re stealing my shit, now? That’s fucking petty.

The message was read pretty much immediately, but Soap didn’t reply. Rodolfo took the boxes out of the drawer and came over, sitting down at the coffee table again and making a frustrated sound as he showed Gaz. “I can’t fucking believe him!”

“I can.” Gaz rolled his eyes. “He’s self righteous, probably thought he was doing it to protect you.”

“Fuck him.” Rodolfo shook his head but opened the jewelry boxes so Gaz could see, relaxing at seeing the jewelry pieces were still intact. “They’re a bit too fancy for Friday but… I love them.”

“But… not for Saturday…” Gaz grinned. “You should wear them that day.”

“No, that feels- No. That feels wrong.” Rodolfo’s face flamed bright red. “I wouldn’t do that to Alejandro.”

“Would Alejandro know unless you told him?” Gaz tilted his head. “Does he even know you’re seeing Professor Graves?”

Rodolfo paused and looked at the pieces, touching over the earrings and necklace. He would really like to wear them… “Fuck, I don’t have clothes for Saturday, either. I don’t… know how to dress elegant like the symphony wants.”

“Oh, don’t worry, I do. Alex takes me on those kinds of dates all the time.” Gaz waved his hand. It made sense, Gaz and Alex were both loaded from family money. Adopted family money, but family money all the same. Gaz’s father, John Price, and Alex’s moms all three co-owned several very successful businesses.

Well, Alex and Farah’s moms. It was… complicated.

“Oh. Well… I don’t think I own anything like that.” Rodolfo frowned.

Gaz laughed. “That’s fine! I’ll take you shopping! I’ll even pay for it, as long as you let me pick what you wear!”

Rodolfo blushed dark. “But it’s a date with Alejandro…”

“You’re my friend. I’m not going to let you have a shit date, even if I maybe don’t like the partner.” Gaz shook his head. “I’m not Soap.”

“I don’t think Soap would do that, either…” Rodolfo frowned before wincing when Gaz just gestured to the jewelry. “Do you think you could keep them in your dorm? Just… for now.”

“Of course.” Gaz nodded and smiled. “They might encourage Alex to get me my own pieces.” He joked, holding the necklace up to his skin.

“I think emerald would be better.” Rodolfo remarked, but he smiled.

“I think you might be right.” Gaz agreed and put the necklace back, being ginger with it. “Let’s go on Thursday! I can help you find an outfit for Friday as well! Since I doubt you have much for a bar.”

“I do not.” Rodolfo agreed. Even if it was meant to be a bit classier… He didn’t think he’d have anything for it. “Alright. Thursday. I like that… Hey, maybe you can bring Malika and I can get to meet her!”

“Perfect!” Gaz smiled. “Thursday.”

Rodolfo’s Tuesday and Wednesday were uneventful. Graves ended up canceling class on Wednesday and while Alejandro texted him plenty, neither of them had a schedule that really allowed for them to randomly hang out. Plus, whatever had Ghost super busy apparently had Alejandro busy as well.

Whatever.

So, when Thursday rolled around, Rodolfo was very happy to go and pick up Gaz and Malika. Gaz had decided on the shopping mall, since there were some stores that he knew would have clothes. Which is where they were, now.

Malika was a sweet omega, following Gaz closely. She and Rodolfo had already had a brief conversation about their classes and Rodolfo found that she was fairly intelligent, if not a bit clueless. Gaz informed him that it was because she had had a rough childhood, so Rodolfo decided not to ask about it.

Now, he was watching Gaz look through clothing on a rack in a store that sold “Elegance Wear” for omegas. There wasn’t honestly much difference in how male omegas and female omegas dressed. It mostly had to do with their secondary sex characteristics. Seeing as female omegas had breasts and male omegas had dicks.

Female alphas and male alphas honestly differed more. It was a bit more socially acceptable for female alphas to be feminine, so they could wear dresses, though more and more opted not to.

In this store, clothing made to fit male omegas had an M next to the size and those for females had an F. Rodolfo was a 16M, for instance, but Malika was apparently a 14F. Apparently Alpha clothing sizes were a bit more complicated, which Rodolfo didn’t get why. But, he wasn’t going to bother questioning it.

Clothing that could be a bit more neutrally worn just dropped the M and F. Most clothes in a walmart, for instance, would just be a size and that was it. And, seeing as female omegas rarely wore the underwired bra that female alphas did, apparently their bras were a bit less complicated to size as well.

Alphas had to play games with their sizing, too, apparently.

Well, Rodolfo did suppose it could be important to them, since size used to be a huge thing for alphas. Not so much, anymore, but it had lingered. Bigger alphas were definitely respected a bit more. Just like smaller omegas were often seen as more desirable.

“Rodolfo-”

Rodolfo’s head whipped up and he blushed, seeing Gaz and Malika were both looking at him. “Yeah?”

“Have you paid attention to a bloody word I was saying??” Gaz huffed, crossing his arms.

Rodolfo winced, since he hadn’t even been aware Gaz was talking. “No…” He admitted, going over to him and seeing that Malika was holding two outfits. A blood red velvet dress, which had a black blazer over it, and a the other was an outfit with black pants, a black corset blouse, and the same black blazer.

“Which do you prefer?” Gaz gestured between the two of them, leaning against the rack. Apparently, Gaz used to be a bit of a nerd in high school, but… well, status was everything. The name Kyle Price said a lot, and it didn’t say dorky nerd. According to Gaz.

Rodolfo looked between the two of them, considering. “Um… I kind of like the dress.” Admittedly, he was thinking of the painting, since the Royal had been wearing a dress that looked close to red velvet in it.

This one had the same off the shoulder neckline, which was the most common style that male omegas wore. It didn’t look weird with a flat chest. “I like it.”

“I do, too. I really think it’ll match that jewelry.” Gaz smiled. He’d had Rodolfo send him pictures of it and so he held it up, asking Malika what she thought.

“Hmm…” Malika tilted her head. “I think the gold really goes with the dress, but I’m not liking the blazer… What about cream?”

“No, cream would be too vintage.” Gaz shook his head.

Rodolfo made a face. Right. Malika’s major, which Rodolfo had yet to actually hear, apparently had something to do with fashion. Rodolfo’s major did not.

Malika seemed to agree, looking around. “Well, he can’t go without something over it, it’s going to be 50 degrees and there is no sleeve. I mean… if he does go, Alejandro may offer his jacket.”

“Yeah, we can’t have that.” Gaz snorted, putting the jacket back on the rack. “I’m giving him Rudy in this dress, I’m not going to give him that much.”

Malika continued to look around before leaving and coming back with a white shawl. It was also velvet, though a much fluffier velvet, and it had a place that one could use a broach, though Rodolfo didn’t own a broach. “I like it.” Gaz nodded, putting it over the dress. “Very elegant.”

Rodolfo was starting to worry it was too elegant. “I’ll be overdressed.”

“The event is black tie.” Gaz waved him off, starting to walk over to the shoe section. “I’m more worried about you being underdressed.”

“How do you know that??” Rodolfo followed him over. “I doubt it’s black tie, Alejandro doesn’t like those kinds of events.” Huh, Graves was taking him to a bar and Alejandro was taking him to a symphony that was supposedly black tie… Weird. It felt like it should be the opposite.

“Because I searched for the event. Don’t worry, Alejandro planned to tell you, I yelled at him over it.” Gaz’s tone was like he was reading off a manual. “He forgot. However, he confirmed it’s black tie.”

Rodolfo was more surprised that Gaz had bothered to speak to Alejandro than he was that Alejandro was going to a black tie event. But, he didn’t say anything, watching Malika and Gaz pick over the shoe section. When they seemed to find acceptable shoes, he shook his head. “Can I see how much everything costs?”

He wasn’t surprised when Gaz just laughed.

They went up to the counter and Gaz smiled at the cashier. “My boyfriend called up earlier. Alex Keller? He opened a tab.”

The cashier nodded. “Yes, he did, I can see it. Can you give me the last four of the card?”

Gaz gave it and then put the clothes on the counter. Rodolfo rolled his eyes. Gaz could afford everything, himself, but Alex was a bit more traditional in that he believed an alpha should spoil their partner. Granted, Rodolfo was a bit more traditional than both of them, but as such, Gaz rarely paid for anything.

Soap had always joked ‘if it’s not Daddy’s money, it’s Daddy’s money.’ Of course, he meant that joke in a mean way, but Gaz had just let it roll off himself and laughed about it. (Soap was again one to talk since Ghost paid for damn near everything for him. Ghost was paying his college tuition, Gaz was paying his own.)

Rodolfo then followed Gaz out. “Okay, that’s one outfit. What about the other?” He went to take the bag, but Gaz didn’t let him. Whatever.

“We’re just going to go to a simple store for that one.” Gaz said. Malika caught up to them and she ended up taking the bag, dropping something inside. “Obviously, you don’t need Elegant Wear for a bar.”

Rodolfo agreed and they went into a clothing boutique that Rodolfo did not think he’d be able to afford on his own, but which seemed to have much more casual clothing. He liked the style, looking around. Already, though, it appeared Gaz and Malika were building an outfit.

Black jeans, which Rodolfo preferred, though they appeared to be skinny jeans. Then, a white button down. Black tennis shoes, too. “It’s simple, he can wear the components anywhere else, I like it.” Malika nodded.

“What do you think?” Gaz looked at Rodolfo.

Rodolfo shrugged. They were clothes. “I like them. I think I have all of the components of that in my dorm.”

“Yeah, so? New clothes.” Gaz shook the hangers.

Rodolfo rolled his eyes. “Yeah, yeah, new clothes.” He chuckled, amused by the two. He went over, noting that the clothing was a bit nicer than whatever he owned. The jeans had a soft, almost velvet feel and the material seemed to have a bit more give. The shirt was a lot lighter of a material and Rodolfo did finally notice that it was tied in the front. “I like it.”

“Perfect! Well, that was easier than I expected.” Gaz went up and paid for everything before coming back. “Alright, I’m starving, let’s go eat.”
