Ok! I've finally decided to put together a (somewhat) comprehensive tutorial on my latest art~
Tumblr media
Please enjoy this little step-by-step 💁‍♀️
First things first--references!
Now I'm not saying you have to go overboard, but I always find that this is a crucial starting point in any art piece I intend on making. Especially if you're a detail freak like me and want to make it as realistic as possible 🙃
As such, your web browser should look like this at any given point:
Tumblr media
Since this is a historical piece, it means hours upon hours of meaningless research just to see what color the socks are, but...again. that isn't, strictly, necessary 😅
Once I've compiled all my lovely ref pics, I usually dump them into a big-ass collage ⬇️
Tumblr media
(I will end up not using half of these, alas :'D)
Another reference search for background material, and getting to showcase our models of choice for this occasion~
Tumblr media Tumblr media
When picking a reference for an actor or model, the main thing I keep in mind (besides prettiness 🤭) is lighting and orientation. Because I already kinda know what pose I'm gonna go with for this piece, I can look for specific angles that might fit the criteria. I should mention that I am a reference hound, and my current COD actor ref folder looks like this:
Tumblr media
Also keep in mind, if you're using a ref that you need to flip, make sure you adjust accordingly. This especially applies to clothing, as certain things like pants zippers and belt buckles can be quite specific ☝️
Now that we've spent countless hours googling, it's time to start with a rough sketch:
Tumblr media
It doesn't have to be pretty, folks, just a basic guideline of where you want the figures to be.
The next step is to define it more, and I know this looks like that 'how to draw an owl' meme, but I promise--getting from the loose sketch above to below is not that difficult.
Tumblr media
Things to keep in mind are--don't go too in-depth with the details, because things are still subject to change at this point. In terms of making a suitable anatomically-correct sketch, I would suggest lots of studying. This doesn't even have to be things like figure drawing, I genuinely look at people around me for inspiration all the time. Familiarize yourself with the human form, and things like weight, proportions, posing will seem a little more feasible.
It's also important at this stage to consider your composition. Remember to flip the canvas frequently to make sure you're not leaning to one side too often. I'm sure something can be said for the spiral fibonacci stuff, which I don't really try to do on purpose, but I think keeping things like symmetry and balance in mind is a good start ✌️
Tumblr media
Next step is just blocking in the figures. Standard. No fuss 👍
Now onto the background!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's frankly hilarious how many people thought I was *hand-drawing* these maps and stuff 😂😂 I cannot even begin to comprehend how insanely difficult that would be. So yeah, we're just taking the lazy copy and paste way out 🤙
I almost always prepare my backgrounds first, and this is mostly to get a general color scheme off the bat. For collage work, it's really just a matter of trial and error, sticking this here, slapping this there, etc. I like to futz around with different overlay options until I've found a nice arrangement. Advice for this is just--go nuts 🤷‍♀️
Tumblr media
Next, I add a few color adjustments. I tend to make at least 2 colors pop in an art piece, and low and behold, they usually tend to be red and blue ❤️💙There's something about warm/cool vibes, idk man..
Tumblr media
Now we move on to coloring the figures. This is just a basic block and fill, not really defining any of the details yet.
Tumblr media
Next, we add some cursory values. Sloppy airbrush works fine, it'll look better soon I promise 🙏
And now--rendering!
I know a lot of beginner artists are intimidated by rendering, and I can totally understand why. It's just one of those things you have to commit to 💪
I've decided to show a brief process of rendering our dear Johnny's face here:
Tumblr media
Starting off, I usually rely on the trusty airbrush just to get some color values going. Note--I've kept my sketch layer on top, but feel free to turn it on and off as you work, so as to not be too bound to the sketch. For now, it's just a guideline.
Tumblr media
This next stage may look like a huge jump, but it's really just adding more to the foundation. I try to think of it like putting on make-up in a way~ Adding contours, accentuating highlights. This is also where I start adding in more saturation, especially around areas such as ears, nose and lips. Still a bit fuzzy at this point, but that's why we keep adding to it 💪
Tumblr media
A boy has appeared! See--now I've removed most of the line layer, and it holds up on its own. I'll admit that in order to achieve this realistic style, you'll need lots and lots of practice and skill, which shouldn't be discouraging! Just motivate yourself with the prospect of getting to look at pretty men for countless hours 🙆‍♀️
I'll probably do a more in-depth explanation about rendering at some point, but let's keep this rolling~
Tumblr media
Moving forward is just a process of adding to the figures bit by bit. I do lean towards filling in each section from top to bottom, but you can feel free to pop around to certain parts that appeal to you more. I almost always do the faces first though, because if they end up sucking, I feel less guilty about scrapping it 😂 But no--I think he's pretty enough to proceed 😚
Tumblr media
They're coming together now 🙆‍♀️ Another helpful tip--make sure you reuse color. By that, I mean--try to incorporate various colors throughout your piece, using the eyedropper tool to keep a consistent palette. I try to put in bits of red and blue where I can
Tumblr media
Here they are fully rendered! Notice I've made a few subtle changes from the sketch, like adjusting the belt buckles because I made a mistake 😬 Hence why you shouldn't put too much stock in your initial sketch~
Tumblr media
The next step is more of a stylistic choice, but I usually go over everything with an outline, typically in a bright color like green. Occasionally, I can just use my initial line layer, but for this, I've made a brand new, cleaner line 👍
And the final step is adjusting the color and adding some text:
Tumblr media
Tada!! It's done!
All in all, this took me the better part of a week, but I have a lot of free time, so yeah ✌️
I hope you appreciated that little walkthrough~ I know people have been asking me how I do my art, but the truth is--I usually have no clue how to explain myself 😅 So have this half-assed tutorial~
As a bonus, here is a cute (cursed) image of Johnny without his mustache:
Tumblr media
A baby, a literal infant child !!! who put this wee bairn on the front lines ??! 😭
Anyway! peace out ✌️

Jenson Button x reader
Childhood friends to lovers series part three
Fluffy
Word count 746
Rushed extremely rushed 😭😭😭
Dose the UK have a prom idk 🤷‍♀️
4 more fics queued up for tomorrow and that’s everything
Prom season is that time of year in school that many students dread. It's when young women embark on a quest to find the perfect dress and all the accessories to go with it. And then there's the daunting task of finding a date, which often adds to the stress of the season.
You had the perfect dress and all the accessories ready for the event, but there was one thing missing - a date. Typically, Jenson would accompany you to such events, but this time he was away racing and wouldn't be back in time for the prom.
“Oh sweetheart you should really think about going, you don’t want to miss out on a once in a lifetime experience” your mom said rubbing your back to sooth you after you had been crying.
You sat on your bed, feeling frustrated and alone. You had never been one to enjoy being alone, and the thought of attending prom without Jenson made you feel more miserable than usual.
As you sat there, wallowing in self-pity, you had no idea that Jenson was carefully planning his surprise return home for the event. He knew how much you were struggling and wanted to make sure you felt special on this night.
A few days later, you were in your room getting ready for prom. You had done your makeup and were putting on the finishing touches to your hairstyle when you heard a knock at the door.
You assumed it was just one of your friends coming over to get ready together, so you opened the door with a big smile on your face. But when you saw Jenson standing there in a sharp suit with a bouquet of flowers in his hand, you couldn’t believe your eyes.
Jenson beamed as he saw your reaction. He had planned this surprise for weeks and was thrilled at finally seeing the look on your face.
“Surprise!” he said, a huge grin on his face as he presented you with the bouquet of flowers. "I couldn’t let my favorite girl go to prom without a date, could I?”
Your eyes welled up with tears as you took in the sight before you. This was the last thing you had expected, but it was exactly what you needed. You couldn't believe that Jenson had gone through all this trouble just for you.
“Jenson, this is incredible,” you said, embracing him tightly. “I can’t believe you did this for me. You’re the best!”
Jenson chuckled softly as he hugged you back. “Of course I did it for you,” he said, pulling back to look into your eyes. “I couldn’t bear the thought of you going to prom alone. Plus, who else could I count on to dance the night away with me?”
You laughed and playfully swatted his arm. “You mean who else would be gullible enough to fall for your terrible dance moves?” you teased.
Jenson feigned hurt, then grinned. “What are you talking about? I’m a fantastic dancer!” he retorted.
You rolled your eyes and playfully shoved him again. “Right. And I’m an astronaut. Now come help me finish getting ready before we’re late.”
Jenson chuckled and followed you into the house, excited to spend the night with his favorite girl.
As you finished getting ready, you couldn't help but feel grateful for Jenson's thoughtfulness. You knew it had taken a lot of planning and effort to arrange this surprise, and the gesture alone meant the world to you.
Soon, you were ready to go, and Jenson escorted you downstairs, where your mom waited to take pictures of the two of you. After saying goodbye to your mom and posing for the pictures, you and Jenson headed out to his car. As he opened the door for you, he couldn't help but admire how incredible you looked in your dress.
On the drive to the prom, you and Jenson talked and laughed, enjoying each other's company and the anticipation of the night ahead. As you arrived at the prom venue, all the nerves and uncertainty you had felt earlier in the evening vanished. Jenson helped you out of the car and offered you his arm, and you walked into the prom together, feeling more confident than ever.
The night was perfect. You and Jenson danced and laughed, and the rest of the world faded away. You felt like the luckiest person in the world to have such a wonderful date by your side.

Rate nap arrangements? I'll start:
Big spoon: excellent. I am grabbing you so tightly sorry. 10/10
Little spoon:👁👁 Someone Is Behind Me. Also, wtf do I do with my arms. kinda hurts my shitty shoulders. 3/10
Head on her chest: I am so comfy cozy :3 but also worried about crushing her. 9/10
Her head on my chest: yay comfy cozy have a kissy on the forehead also No Harm Shall Befall You. I Would Fight God To Allow You This Comfort Forever. Who said that. 100/10
What are your most notable/favorite ones and how do you rate them?
I feel like i’m about to disappoint yall so bad but to be completely honest my favorite way to nap is alone🙃😭
Most of these positions or just being trapped in any one position for too long in general would cause the devil himself to try and sneak into my bones and kill me via joint pain so it makes that kind of thing a little complicated😅
I also don’t like being touched unless i’m really very close to and comfortable with the person so i honestly haven’t done much pair napping and it usually ends up being the other person falling asleep on me while i just sorta stay awake🤷‍♀️ in those cases it’s usually:
8/10 mentally i appreciate so much that they trust me enough to do that
But also
2/10 physically oof ouch ow
Idk though will have to find more people capable of jumping my ridiculously high emotional hurdles to help me find better nap positions🤔

Hi It's me from the Tiktok,I Have this Headcanon On Tot Boys Being a Dad Like I'm Sure Artem is gonna Spoil His Children ESPECIALLY Marius Like The moment he hears His Child Mumbling About "Wow This Kitty plushie looks cute" and He be Like "Then Get em" he might Also Buy the Whole Store(I wish a had a marius in my life) AND for Luke,Like i think he's gonna be A Chill Dad yk Like Setting a prank together with his child and do cute Stuff y'all Mostly go out to Have a Family Bonding Since Luke is Busy being a Detective (a hot One) and lastly Vyn i think He's the Type of that Who Enjoy Reading his Children a Story When it's Bedtime and he's the type to also Gossip with his Children like "Dad there's this Kid-" and he go like "C'mere Tell me all about Ur school and stuff" LIKE ISN'T CUTEEE and While Us Just Watching Them Interact and Smiling like an Idiot, anyways This is just What i had in mind ofc ur free to Say no to my Idea But Yeah That's All,Hope you have a good Rest!🖤
Father, May I?
NXX boys as dads</333
————————————
Genre: fluff ofc but I'm adding angst parts after every story bcs it's my specialty duhh(I WAS BORED SORRYYY)
A/N: BESTIE UR A GENIUS THIS IS RLLY CUTE TOO😭😭😭 IMMA HAVE A FIELD DAY WITH THIS ONE TYVM SRY IF I REPLY TOO LATE SCHEDULES PRETTY TIGHT</333 also i might make this into 2 parts bcs it might take long idk depends if I finish this quickly!! Sorry for the wait<3
Tumblr media
Vyn Richter
This man is literally A DUKE of a kingdom LITERALLY LOOK INTO MY EYES AND TELL ME HE WONT GO ALL OUT FOR HIS PRINCESS</333
He doesn't rlly flex it often in the stories (except when he literally showed to their faces that only he had an invitation to that one Pluto cruise ship lmao
Speaking of cruise ships, he'd definitely be renting/buying a whole cruise ship for your daughter's birthday or if she's not into those, he'll arrange for her birthday party in the ballroom in their castle/family mansion in Svart
Honestly, he never wanted to ever come back to Svart if it wasn't for his little princess</33
You told her a bedtime story saying that her dad is a king and you're actually a queen which makes your daughter a princess
The story was supposed to make her sleepy but she ended up getting too excited and literally begging her father(Vyn) if they can come to their castle (he didn't agree at first, hesitant onto how the people of Svart and most importantly, his father woulf react but who cares his child wanted to go there so why not🙄)
Yeah with that said, after that, he just went on a spoiling spree on his daughter but he won't overdo it ofc🤷‍♀️ He doesn't want her to turn into someone condescending and just a bad person as a whole and with that kind of raising technique of his, she grows up into such a sweet girl and he sometimes can't help but smile stupidly with how his daughter resembles her mom so much 😭
Angst part
Ok so me and a friend of mine had this hc where like I forgot most of it but it was just how if Vyn decides to leave you and come back to Svart (he doesn't know that you have a child together so u ended up raising your daughter alone)
Can you imagine the shock on his face when he passes by the house he used to live with you in Stellis, only to see you playing in the rose filled garden with a little girl
You turn around to the sound of your name being called, hesitant but you still did it as you recognized his voice. He stood in front of you in formal attire, looking down on you with a soft glimmer in his eyes, seemingly shocked and feeling guilty
He asks you why you didn't tell him about your daughter but you immediately interrupted him saying that he never gave you a chance to speak
If you let him in your lives again, he'll make sure that his daughter lives the best life, guilty with how he almost made her live the same childhood as him</3
But even after the second chance you gave him, you desperately picked up the broken pieces of your heart from the ground as you tear up at the sight of the father of your children and the King of Svart, Vyn, being wedded to a woman on equal footing as him.
Tumblr media
Artem Wing
Mkay so first of all, uhm TWINS?? Lets say it's a boy and a girl. Well the girl resembles you in EVERY way possible. She's stubborn asf but determined with whatever she puts her mind into. She sometimes pushes his brother into doing stuff he loves like inspiring him yk??
Her brother tho, she's like Artem lmao💀 He's usually calm and silent in a corner somewhere doing arts and crafts while his sister is in the middle of the room singing twinkle twinkle little stars from the bottom of her heart
You'd think that the sister would be the protector between the two of em but it's actually your son. He's kinda timid and shy but he won't tolerate any unjust actions towards his dear sister</3 (You nudge Artem and chuckle at how much your son resembled your husband</33)
When it comes to what your children want, like toys, clothes etc, I wouldn't say that he'll buy anything they want (that's a lie he actually buys them whatever they want when you're not within the vicinity lmao)
It usually goes like this, your daughter is asking Artem to buy both of em something because their friends have it and he'll usually refuse when you're there but the moment you go out to buy groceries, you'd just end up dropping the bags of grocery you had with you the moment you come home as you lay your eyes on the newly bought bikes that looks expensive asf in front of your home LMAOOOO
Yall remember that one personal story where he spent millions for us during the investigation?? He'd def do that to you and your children
They aren't even born yet and he's already having your house renovated for their rooms, already buying shit ton of toys, going to the mall ONLY for food and suddenly, hes calling you over to ask if this little baby onesie would look cute on your children</3
There is no Angst part. I mean, ITS LITERALLY ARTEM WING. HES THE GREENEST OF THE GREEN FLAGS MY BOY HAS NO FLAWS.
Tumblr media
Luke Pearce
Also twins ngl. Energetic ones at that
Twin girls?? Absolutely (do yall know the fanarts of Lukerosa with this daughter named xiaxia😭😭😭)
Well lets just pretend theres two xiaxia's here
Anyway, he's like those uncle/grandmas that give you chocolate or money in secret when your parents aren't looking
Like maybe before you all eat dinner, daughter 1 is already hungry and is sulking bcs you didnt let her have a bite of the ice cream and here comes papa Luke to the rescue, passing her a piece of chocolate discreetly 😭
Gives your daughters piggy back rides especially when going out to family night outs or when just going to the park to have a little picnic. Or at weekend nights when you're both not working, you're all in the living room laughing softly at the 3 of em seeing them dance in the middle of the room to some children's music
OH AND ARRON IS DEFINITELY SUCH A CUTE UNCLE TO THEM OMGGG hes giving them plushies, money...toy guns..(as soon as Luke found out about it, he's immediately banned from coming over lmao/j)
Hes vv soft to his princesses but he isn't too soft that he gives them everything. I'm not rlly sure but I think he'd like practice disciple with wanting stuff like, 'Do you want the chocolate or the animal plushie? If you get the chocolate, it wouldn't last very long but if you get the plushie, you'll have it forever!'
Goes to your childhood home sometimes to hang out in the attic where you and Luke used to play in and introduces your girls to Sherlock Holmes</3
(DRESSES THEM UP AS JOHN WATSON N SHERLOCK HOLMES😭😭😭😭)
Just the best dad overall tbh
Angst part<333
He was very hesitant with having children with you with the thing abt his life and his line of work but the moment that he sees the smile on your face slowly dissipate and turn into a look of gloom, he feels guilty for even hesitating for a moment and immediately hugs you
He knows he won't be around for a while so even if he really wants to give your children proper discipline, there are moments where he just spoils them to their hearts content
Sometimes at night, he sits alone in the balcony of your own home and he smiles softly knowing that you now have little angels to look after you once the time comes.
The burden of all of these dawns on him tho. Like, what would your daughters feel like when they realize their dad's gone? What if his work as a spy results in his family getting hurt? Or worse, what if one of them gets pulled into the NXX stuff?
There are times where guilt and despair overwhelms him so pls go easy on him amd always give him cuddles<33
Your touch used to bring him comfort but why is it that when you brushed your hand against his face to wipe his tears away as you laid half conscious in his arms, it brought an overwhelming sense of fear and guilt?
He hugs your body closer to him as tears fell continously from his face, hurting at how his princesses will probably have to grow up without parents.
Tumblr media
Marius von Hagen
He spoils them. No negotiations, no questions asked.
He has a son too btw!! (his son hates him lmao)
Your son hates it when his dad hogs or steals all your attention which then ends up having a mini Marius sulking and hugging your legs asking you with a pout if you love Marius more than him LMAOOOO
I forgot where I read this but I think its the personal story???? idk i forgot Where the cat sneaks in to his home and just hates him overall
Your son would def wanna keep the cat and claim that the cat is now his "accomplice"
Yea but with all that aside, Marius is definitely soft for his son</333 He inherited everything of his dad but he has your eyes which makes him more vulnerable to puppy dog eyes of your son when he asks his dad to get him something
He's well aware of his footing in society so he knows how to stand up to himself well. Or if paparazzi surrounds you, poor baby would scream at them and tell them how he hates them for making his mom(you) have a hard time
Surprisingly, the reporters feel bad and start making way for the three of you to go home
Marius is definitely proud of him for standing up for himself and his mom. Speaking of that, he's another sucker for his kid when you're away. You could literally blink and the moment you open your eyes again, there's suddenly a mountain of toys around u lmao
Angst part
Marius is also very aware of how dangerous it is to live in front of the camera and being exposed to the judging eyes of the public so he tries his absolute best to keep you both safe. Including with scandals, where it's said that PAX CEO Marius von Hagen is having an affair with someone else while having a family of his own. His heart breaks into a million pieces as he looks down on his son thats literally crying and hitting his leg with little to no force because of how hard he was crying.
Hes cursing his own dad on why he has the guts to make u cry like that. His last straw snaps as tears swell into his own eyes as he bends down to pick up your crying son and he hugs him tightly.
He considered leaving PAX and having someone else run it seeing how bad of an effect it left to his family but you begged him to stay there seeing how important the company is but what you didnt expect was that he'll someday put his company first before his family.
Tumblr media
A/N:I think i kept turning away from the og plot im so sorry😭😭😭 i made this at 12 last night bcs i couldnt sleep so m sorry if it does look too good💀💀
I also just went with it and did all of em lmao I WAS ALSO HUNGRY WHILE MAKING THIS SO THATS PROLLY WHY I WAS STRAYIMG FROM THE PLOT LMAOOOOO

https://www.tumblr.com/mimikoolover/747038596806148096/lets-be-real-the-travel-show-is-a-ruse-they?source=share
They're free to do what they want idt they need an excuse to spend their time together even if it means going outside the country before MS.
V and hobi literally went to Hawaii with their families when all the members went to US after covid like vhope were the Only pair that went to Hawaii and others stayed for work while jinkook came back to sk. No one questioned them so no one will question the jikook too. The World is not a shipping bubble who move like shippers and start questioning as far as hangouts like every normal person do. These "omgg they're definitely dating" with m/m or f/f idols only happens in the fandom that too shipping fandom but the world is bigger than that. No media is gonna question why two bandmates that are friends are going out or having vacations especially if the two are known close friends. Idk why you guys always think about this hiding and all these things.
Jungkook himself said that the company suddenly made a move over something jikook agreed to do on years ago. And all this content is mostly for fans to keep engaged till they come back. Y'all saw they did friendification with taehyung, they're doing that travel show with jikook. Not saying jikook won't enjoy it of course it's actually a good opportunity for them to be relax before MS. But the important reason behind it not as shippers think it is. Cause jungkook himself said so that the company arranged it and not like jikook themselves asked for it suddenly.
it's one thing doing it but if they wanted to share it as well the travel show was the way to do it cause it's not like jungkook could drop another GCF in tokyo with a gay ass song in the bg just before they're enlisting in the military where it's literally illegal to be gay.
idk who "you guys are" but you can fuck off with grouping me into any group. no one said jikook would be hiding anything or that the media would be all over it if they travelled together. undoubtedly the two of them cannot just go travelling anywhere on their own so staff would have went with them anyway like they did back in 2017 and they were nowhere near as famous. I'm sure you didn't miss the insane attention it got when the two of them went to the airport together and even in the USA jungkook was asked about jimin being in NYC too.
jungkook didn't divulge a lot of information actually on how the travel show ended up being, he just said he and jimin talked about doing one ages ago and then the company set it up 'suddenly' but he did not go into detail of what happened and how it was all arranged so your guess is as good as mine. so it could actually be that jikook went to them and said we want to travel knowing staff would have to be there anyway so bighit was like ok we will set that shit up for you. you will film it too so you don't drop another gay ass vlog on us and instead we'll make it a show for the fans. that's as valid as whatever you think happened and we'll never know unless they tell us in the show itself or after🤷‍♀️
you can think (what you want but also) that the company went to them and was like y'all will be travelling, here's a gopro go film it. but then you gotta wonder why they asked jikook to do it and not any other pairing when taekook as a ship and money making entity is 1000 times more popular than jikook🤔

i saw a ss that had taken from malia's subscription story, and it her finally answering questions (it literally said to ask her questions she could FINALLY answer), and someone asked if she was in a relationship, which she replied with DUHHH and a picture of her and colby he posted i think a week or two ago. idk why she had to say that privately when everyone knows they're dating, and it's not really a secret anymore. people say it's because she'll lose the attention from other men if she posts colby publicly, but idk. i just think it'd be nice if she also posted him publicly, and not only colby doing it all himself, or only he reposts things of them. she probably would, just on the subscription...
I heard about that.
It's really interesting that she said to ask her questions she could "finally" answer, because to me that implied that her and Colby had an arrangement that they wouldn't announce anything until he was ready to do it and she honored that.
Which is cool and respectable of her and all, but like - did I miss a chapter, or did he already hard launch this whole thing into the sun like a MONTH ago at this point? I think she could've "finally" answered this question after Coachella, but what do I know 🤣.
Anyway, I guess she knows that's the big question everyone was going to ask anyway (well besides the trolls who probably paid $5 to ask her about her dating history and the work she's had done in some sad attempt at a gotcha moment lol), so I get why she answered it right away and that way - but I do find it funny that she used a picture everyone has already seen cause Colby himself posted it and not something new and exclusive. 🤷‍♀️
And yea, aside from her posting them on her tiktok, she has mostly been sticking to Reposting things he's already posted - which I'm kind of "whatever" about, simply because I feel like she knows full well if she was posting him, people would be mad at her for that, too. She is in a no-win situation right now, so idk. Maybe it's that.
Or maybe she doesn't want to lose followers by flaunting her relationship. Colby's been steadily losing followers ever since he posted about her, but he's got enough followers that it'll take a lot more losing until he truly starts to feel it. She probably doesn't have that luxury.
Or she's just one of those people that's just really feeling herself and wants her likes and her instagram aesthetic to reflect that. Who knows lol.
One thing I will say though, is I want more Colby and Malia content - particularly maybe a few pics or videos from the last time she was in Vegas with them.
No real reason for that. I just think it'd be neat.

I was the anon who sent the first ask about that and I'm glad there's more people who agreed with me about it. I also would like to add that he dosen't even have to organize those events for them, but at least show up to the ones made it by his teammates, you know? There's an interview from last year where Fehoko talked about these dinners Khalil has been doing and he mentioned getting surprised one day because Justin showed up and idk, I was expecting more from him tbh
I'm surprised how many asks actually agreed with the opinion tbh. I expected (and got) some hate about it but most were in agreement.
A lot of people seemed to think that Justin was the one who arranged the Friday dinners (for the Defense...lol) which simply isn't true. He showed up a couple of times as I've been told and has been openly spoken about, but that's it. It's a start but the man needs to show up more and that's literally all we're asking lol. It's not a big ask imo but hey ho 🤷‍♀️

What are your favorite tropes? What are your least favorite tropes? I CAN DO IT, TOO, YOU KNOW!
Lmao you got me there 😭💕 Most of them are romance tropes because what can I say. Am slut for romcom 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
Love love love
Bickering like an old married couple
Unnaturally intelligent pets that enact the will of god (read: the author doesn’t want them together yet, so the dog has to warm up to a character before they’ll let them anywhere near another character. Or a cat that hates everyone doesn’t hate This person)
Trapped in an elevator/snowed in/forced proximity
Denial. Any form of it. All day. Every day.
“I know you. The good and the bad. And I want it all.”
Jealousy/Possessive behavior
Idk the word for this but when two enemies grow closer while one of them is disguised. Yes like in Megamind
Not using first names except in Very Intimate Moments
Pirates. Monsters. Idk, not together but they seemed like they belonged on the same line
Belligerent sexual tension (slap-slap-kiss)
Exploration of morally gray or nuanced ethics
Stealing clothes
Loooove so much the concept of running away and its many iterations, which really is just a form of denial now that I think about it
The “oh no he’s hot” moment, which I enjoy more than an italicized “oh” moment
No Thanks (maybe I can do them in specific settings like if my friends write these, but I’ll probably never write one)
Arranged marriage where there’s no way out of it
Public humiliation as a punishment for wrongdoing
Whump fic, especially if things just Keep Happening to a character that has no agency of their own
I call it “Rebel Character in Oppressive Situation is Always Wrong.” Just any time I’m reading and a systemically under-served/POC/woman/queer character is consistently losing or being proven wrong without a win to balance it out… Blegh, throw it back
Unplanned pregnancy when it wasn’t the original plot. Like a “18 chapters in and suddenly she wakes up nauseous” situation. (although I don’t mind a “one night stand, time skip five years, gasp a secret kid the dad didn’t know about??” Pregnancy itself is just not for me)
Enemies 👏 that 👏 stop 👏 the 👏 banter 👏 after 👏 getting 👏 together 👏 will 👏 make 👏 me 👏delete 👏 a 👏 bookmark 👏 “I know you held a knife up to my neck once but now you’re my cuddly sweetie pie honey bear who could do no wrong” go to hell.
Miscommunication where it’s like “Character A is trying to say something but Character B won’t let them get a word in edge wise, so Character A gives up even though one (1) sentence would clear up the whole mess.”

I'm probably one of the few who did not pick up a particularly true/good bond between Aemond/Alicent. To me, too much of Aemond is restricted/restrained in relation to his mother (not exclusively). Which, in turn, makes it deeply interesting to me. Especially once the facade breaks down, and he has to reckon with that fact. It's like watching true believers start questioning their faith.
Tangent but the idea of Aemond being incapable of forming a bond with his sister who appears just as much an outcast/weirdo and instead forming one with an oldass dragon war machine... satirical. (I imagine not being a dragon rider had much to do with it + little chance, being Aegon and Helaena were probably raised as a unit anyway for their arranged marriage.)
Idk if you've ever answered this but do you think Sunfyre was hatched to Aegon or claimed? Either way, I imagine he was livid at how his and Helaena's dragons' names match LOL
Hi there!
I'm probably one of the few who did not pick up a particularly true/good bond between Aemond/Alicent. To me, too much of Aemond is restricted/restrained in relation to his mother (not exclusively). Which, in turn, makes it deeply interesting to me.
I don't know what to tell you about that, anon, the green side of tumblr has dissected their relationship to death already. :) He is literally the child Alicent hugs the most in her scenes with them. He is the first one for which we see her stick out her neck in a massive way, publicly demanding justice, even after Viserys refuses her a couple of times. When she finds out he's being bullied, she takes it to Viserys & Aegon. She encourages & comforts him. Yes, she also chastises him a little, because what he did was reckless, big whoop. Wouldn't any parent chastise their child if they, say, approached a dangerous stray dog on the street?
Especially once the facade breaks down, and he has to reckon with that fact. It's like watching true believers start questioning their faith.
I mean, imagine coming home to your mother confessing you just killed a relative & inadvertently escalated a tense political situation that could have maybe been resolved diplomatically into a full-blown war that includes dragonfire. I wouldn't call that a facade. 🤷‍♀️ It's a serious breakdown within the familial unit. Alicent has every right to be upset; this isn't about not loving or supporting her son.
Tangent but the idea of Aemond being incapable of forming a bond with his sister who appears just as much an outcast/weirdo and instead forming one with an oldass dragon war machine... satirical. (I imagine not being a dragon rider had much to do with it + little chance, being Aegon and Helaena were probably raised as a unit anyway for their arranged marriage.)
I'd say that helaemond trruthers would disagree with you on that. 😅Aemond defends Helaena from Aegon as a child. When he is upset and worse for wear after trying to claim Dreamfyre, he confides in Alicent, but doesn't seem to have a problem being vulnerable in front of Helaena, who is also in the room. He watches her like a hawk when she dances with Jace. Helaena's face lights up when he enters her room. I don't think they have a bad relationship. :))
Idk if you've ever answered this but do you think Sunfyre was hatched to Aegon or claimed? Either way, I imagine he was livid at how his and Helaena's dragons' names match LOL
Sunfyre was a hatchling brought over from Dragonstone. We don't know how big he was or how old Aegon was when he bonded with him; I imagine it happened when he was a child. As for who names the dragons, I think dragon-riders get first dibs on that. We know Rhaenyra named Syrax herself, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to assume the same for Aegon. All owners of magical pets in-universe got to name them themselves (i.e the Stark kids). It is possible that several names are suggested to young children, like the names of Valyrian gods. Whenever hatchlings are mentioned in the text, they do not carry any particular name, so I don't think the dragonkeepers name them.
By the time Helaena claimed Dreamfyre, Aegon & Sunfyre had already bonded in the show. It is very possible Helaena bonded with Dreamfyre later on in the books as well. They don't have a bad relationship in the text, so I don't think Aegon would have objected (mayhaps GRRM intended their names to match anyway).

Hi! I just want to say that you seem really cool and I agree with a lot of your takes on only friends so far and I’m quite grateful for them (as a forcebook & topmew truther😅). There have been some things I realised that have relatively gone unnoticed by a lot of viewers that I feel like sharing if you don’t mind and I’m curious about your thoughts on them. 
I came across one of your posts about how Mew is actually not done with Boston yet after EP7, and I agree but I’m nervous about it. After Mew let Boston off easily in EP7, I was thinking “that felt like a pre-game to me😅”. Book also said that Mew was going to support Nick with something in one of the interviews. I don’t think the talk they had in EP7 counts, but the way the convo was set up was actually interesting to me.
My theory is that Mew and Nick knew each other way before than what the show presented us with (in EP3). That meeting they had in EP7 - it looked like Mew was the one who arranged it, which is kind of strange? In EP1, Boston gave Mew’s number to Nick for his phone number. There has not been any scene that has revealed Mew has Nick’s contact info (unless it’s a given since Nick works for them for the CCTV and stuff). When Nick and Mew were introduced to each other in EP3 by Chueam, she only said Nick was in charge of CCTV (she didn’t mention audio recording…). But Mew started off the convo with “Nick. I knew you were the one who recorded that audio clip…” - How does Mew know?
Someone on TikTok mentioned in the TopMew ice cream scene in EP1, Mew was so oddly specific about what he would (theoretically) do if he fell in love and got heartbroken - he would stalk his instagram, check his messages, listen to sad songs and cry. Initially I was like yeah that’s a textbook romance troupe. But oddly that was what Nick did. The way Mew said those things with certainty, could be based off someone’s experience🤷🏻‍♀️? 
I also want to point out in the beginning and ending of EP5, there were a lot drawings - which could be from Nick, since he majors in animation and visual design. Someone else theorized that Nick was probably watching the friend group from the sidelines for a long time, given that Nick mentioned he was ostracized often when he was younger. This is where I think it might lead into the next phase of Mew’s revenge against Boston.
Nick is likely doing a project at his internship company - which is doing CG work for a film production company. Imagine if Mew is feeding him information about the friend group - which leads to something similar to Lexi’s play in Euphoria? I’m also curious if that’s how we’re going to find out how this friend group got together in the first place. The way Mew can still have a similar psychological warfare on Boston and expose his misdeeds, but with something that’s not illegal or explicit like Boston’s tape. I can be wrong but this is something I had in mind. 
intriiiiguing🤔
hmmm, i'd just assumed that mew found out from ray who the recording came from since sand told him nick recorded it - although going back through it doesn't actually come up in their scenes together🤔 and the wording here makes it seem like he figured it out, rather than was told...
Tumblr media
but he could be bluffing to protect ray? he is kind of coaxing/lying throughout this scene. or it could be a translation quirk, idk.
whether nick's been watching the gang or not is probably not as straightforward as that, although it does seem like perhaps he recognized boston from school:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
it IS interesting to note that nick and mew had each other's phone numbers before officially meeting and might have kept in contact. there are a lot of interactions we don't see, so mew's comment about nick being nice could just be from them chatting while working on the project so 🤷‍♀️ however, i do believe that mew's comments about how he'd be "so into" top are more coming from personal experience and, you know, he is flirting lol so i wouldn't read too much into it.
i never put much thought to the opening/ending drawings in episode five, i kind of just figured it was one of the unique styles for individual episodes but there has been a lot of importance put on visual art throughout the show so🤔 i hAVE had a feeling that nick's animation subplot would have something to do with the rest of the gang or mew's revenge, especially if it's to avoid actually releasing revenge porn. (i haven't seen euphoria, but i'm assuming it's a play based on the real events of the group of friends?) although with how nick seems to still be trying to stay with boston, idk... unless they have another falling out? hm.
the last two episodes of mew spiraling out and even skipping classes have made me question if he really does have something more in store for boston, since it seems like he'd postpone revenge so he could stay an honor student but... i could also see why he'd get sidetracked by the actual heartbreak too.
i am actually extremely uncool but i'm happy you're here and enjoying my blog, anon!🥰 verrrry interesting ideas, thanks for sharing!💗💗

I need to vent to someone about some drama in my class 😭😭😭
so basically last year, I kinda had a crush on this guy in my class. I thought he was kinda cute and this year, we’re in the same class.. so what happened last year was that I had these two fake friends in my class and I told them not knowing that they’re gonna spread this to one of the friends of the guy I liked (Idk if I still like him but i still find him a bit cute)
and the second that I went out to wash my hands after break, (let’s call the friend 1 and the guy I liked as 2 ) so 1 told 2 and the second I walked back into my classroom, I could see from the look on twos face that he knew… and he def didn’t feel the same way, but it didn’t rly hurt me at all. And 1 even told our French teacher about it like bro wth what’s wrong with u?
But this year, like it seems he’s forgotten about it.
NOW THIS YEAR, our homeroom teacher makes buddies bcs some ppl would never even talk to others like me! (I don’t rly have any friends) So she (our home room teacher) paired me up with twos best friend and bcs they’re bffs, the seating arrangement ended up like this ⬇️
me ⬅️ twos bff (he’s a guy) ⬅️ 2
AND THE THREE OF US HAVE BEEN GOOFING AROUND IN CLASS FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS AND ITS RLY FUN! I still find him cute but I don’t even think I even had feelings to start with… and those two fake friends look at us laughing together and they kinda talk thru the eyes as if they’re trying to say :
“ look at the two of them like didn’t she like him? And he knows so how are they talking so casually? “
What do u think about this and what should I do???
the way i would deliver the MEANEST PUNCH to the girls face is saddening 😔 ain't no way ur gonna act like my friend and them commit such atrocity wtf. no i really feel u it's like a secret being revealed to someone u don't want to say it to.
it's okay really bae doesn't matter if he likes u back not everywhere has good taste 💋 there's definitely someone better out there for you! and coming to these two INSUFFERABLE BITCHASSES oh god the best is to ignore them and have your best at school and studies, cause honestly they're just jealous of you gaining and having good friends 🤷‍♀️ that's such a mean girl behaviour and they should just be ignored and if the worse happens don't be afraid to speak up love !

idk…Taylor seemed incredibly upset and blindsided by the cheating and subsequent breakup and I’m still not sure she’d recovered from it even years later. That didn’t seem to me like a woman who was happy to let her partner do whatever he wanted to on tour 🤷‍♀️ Louise on the other hand, I agree, they surely must have an agreement, unspoken or not. // That's true, but the difference might have been that Louise was posting about it publicly and bragging and shit. And Taylor might have thought the groupie hook ups were one time only or more private, not that he invites them to things and hangs out with them and the rest of the band, and then realized that actually Louise was still in contact with Alex when she was posting from the Lyon show backstage. Shitty behavior from Alex regardless, but I don't think it rules out him and Taylor having some kind of arrangement, just what he did crossed a line and was really hurtful to her.
That’s fair, there is reasonably a difference between one-time hookups on tour being a don’t ask/don’t tell kind of thing vs a consistent affair as he was evidently having with Louise.

If securing compatibility between a couple previous a marriage taking place is such a deeply rooted tradition since Ancient times in China, how do you think Yu Ziyuan ever got hitched to Jiang Fengmian then? I did read that a wedding wouldn't ever happen if compatibility was an issue!
I don't know whether personal compatibility was a big factor. While I have been researching into Chinese arranged marriages for fics, personal compatibility hasn't come up yet. Also, compatibility could actually mean less about personal compatibility and more about astrological compatibility? Idk if it is the same with Ancient China but I digress.
Regardless, on paper, they're a good match. She is strong, from a good family, has high cultivation, and is the third daughter of a sect leader. Her sect is strong and influential as well. It is also said that she is beautiful.
He is a sect leader of a major sect. His sect is powerful but not as powerful as the other four from what I can guess (from comparisons of what the sect premises was like before and after Jiang Cheng reconstructed it.) He is strong, has good cultivation afaik, and is probably handsome.
In my experience with arranged marriages, all of these factors will be important.
Moreover, there might have been some political and economic advantage of him marrying YZY. He was forced by MeishanYu and his own family as well. Which means that marriage brought some wealth, influence, or trade advantages.
It was apparent from the get-go that the compatibility wasn't there but with arranged marriages, you're sorta expected to learn and find your way. Elders often assume you will eventually get along with some work and compromises.
And to be fair, JFM seems like he tries a lot. If YZY had been less of a harridan and a b*tch, the marriage would've probably worked. But it is canon fact that she has more pride than sense so 🤷‍♀️
