Prince Aventurine
You consciously spend the most time with him by far - from the moment you open your eyes, there's breakfast, tea parties, lunches with him alone and dinners with his family. Up till the very moment he escorts you back to your room, leaving you with a kiss on the back of your hand at the door, you spend nearly every waking moment by Aventurine's side. It's undeniably comforting in many ways, knowing that you can rely on a familiar face if anything else.
But on the other hand, it's a little... suffocating. He's absolutely lovely towards you, but there's a certain way he looks at you - like he can't decide whether you'd look better in a birdcage or in a wedding gown.
Dr Veritas Ratio
Though not nearly as important as the prince himself, you're not spared from the pain of compulsory lessons - to get acclimatised to the history and politics of your home-to-be, so you're told. Your lessons are the few times you're apart from Aventurine (though not for lack of him trying to sit in. Ratio tells him he'll be a distraction and threatens to hit him with a book.)
He's a strict but frighteningly effective teacher, and you leave every lesson happy and knowing something new. He can be surprisingly kind too, giving you some leeway if you had a social engagement the night before and hadn't had time to revise.
Until butler Sunday comes looking for you in an urgent summon, citing a situation that relates to you personally. On your way, he tells you that he's never seen the professor so gentle with any of his students before, and that he never spends so much time on anyone personally.
You're not quite sure what to do with this information.
Sunday
You don't spend so much time with him as you do around him - he's a constant, lurking presence, waiting to attend to Aventurine when he's around, or looking after you when the prince gets busy and can't be by your side.
He's more unsettling than his prince is, and a lot more perceptive; but nonetheless, you find yourself making small talk with him sometimes. Sunday appears to gain special joy from fetching and carrying for you: making your favourite teas and cakes or perusing the library with you. Unusual for a butler, Sunday talks a lot, but you're content to listen and he offers you insights on a vast host of topics.
Boothill
A famous bounty hunter slash mercenary, with too-sharp teeth and a too-bright grin. He's charming but kind, and his company brings you some semblance of the days where you could walk the streets without need of a bodyguard. You're not naive enough to get close to him, however - everyone knows bounty hunters have their fair share of secrets, and you're sure so does he. You're not really sure what important things he might be doing in the palace, however, except for finishing all the toast at breakfast and following you around like he has nothing better to do.
Boothill spends most his days lounging around the gardens, shaving an apple with his knife and generally just giving the maids a scare. But when Aventurine can't be by your side, he tends to "just happen" to bump into you, quoting boredom and needing someone to pass the time with him. You let him accompany you to the library then, and tell him about inconsequential things, like the interesting bird you saw outside your window that morning or the new variety of Ratio's threats and insults.

💗🍓SHE IS A MYSTERY💗🍓
Tumblr media
🍓BEING MYSTERIOUS IS MESMERIZING ✨️
💗People should feel that they are lucky to get to know you. It should be a luxury to know you. That's how you should act. Be very picky when it comes to sharing private things with people. People can manipulate you to get what they want if you share too much . When you over-share you can often embarass and make a fool out of yourself. Make people work hard to get to know you.
🍓We may over-share to seek validation. If we feel fulfilled and trust ourselves , we won't over-share. If you feel fulfilled , you won't feel the need to be fearful or over-share.
💗I watched a video by Kelly stamps about over-sharing, she said " don't be yourself guys, lie a little bit ." I agree , when I wouldn't share too much with others, talk about random stuff , I felt that I was being " fake " and not connecting with people . Later , I realized that I am not being fake but protecting myself. We need to AWARE and CAREFUL when it comes to sharing anything about ourselves with anyone. When I solved my problems on my own , I didn't seek advice from anyone , I noticed that I became confident too.
🍓Over-sharing can get you into trouble too , those words can get twisted against you. Sometimes we may over-share because you have this belief that the only way to connect with someone is by giving yourself away so much that they think they know everything about you. Find a balance where you share things with people , not over-share.
💗There are certain people for certain topics. Share intimate things with your inner circle. If you don't have a inner circle , then journal.
🍓People should think that they know you but in reality, they don't know anything about you. Talk about your interests and allow them to talk about their interests but don't share anything that can get you into trouble.
💗You must have heard about this quote , " Show , don't tell " the quote is very real. Evil eye does exist. Of course , it's okay if you don't believe in it. Show your goals , don't tell others about your goals. People can often get jealous , they can use it against you. Sometimes if you tell others about your goals, they may demotivate you by imposing their limiting beliefs on you. Don't talk about your plans , show them your results. Immature exposure of one's intention often brings failure in it's trail.
🍓The benefits of being Mysterious ( credits to Alessia / Persephonesmind)
Your security will increase so much more .
People will value you more.
💗To be honest , don't fully trust your friends , there are certain secrets in one's life which should never be discussed with anyone , even with your best friend who might embarrass you by exposing them in a fit of rage. Also see this post - click me

Hi could I request yandere poly romantic, the Bridgerton brothers Anthony Colin Benedict headcannons x gender neutral reader, please and could you add a few quotes of what they would say please and thank you. 🥰😊❤️
❥Bridgerton brothers as obsessed partners
Pairings_ Anthony, Colin, Benedict x reader
possible triggers_ isolation, obsessive behavior, poly like relations
a/n_ thanks for requesting and your patience! I really like this concept and I hope you will too. This obviously has no sibling love in this so anyone who’s upset about this concept for that reason, there’s no need to worry. Please refer to the master list to understand the concept. Anyway feedback is welcome and wanted.
Tumblr media
-the three of them are a terrifying combination. Not only do you have to deal with stalking, outbursts, and suffocating affection. You have three of the most influential men at the of the ton pining for your hand...
-at the start, I dont think either of them would be aware that they all have feelings for you. But when they do things become more of a game. All of them want your hand and they will do anything to gain it. Colin writes letters. Benedict flatters with witty remarks and portraits. Anthony splurges.
-separate from their archetypes in the other concepts, the Bridgerton brothers view you as a prize more than anything. Something to be won. Something to be savored and kept. It won't be until another rival shows that the three will work together. All are scary protective of you and will quickly swoop in if any possible sutor comes too close
-I feel as though at first they will present themselves as your friends. They'll be the ones to invite you to balls, spend time with you in the park, and invite you to family games. if possible, they want you to feel as though you can trust them. It's a total wolf in sheep's clothing thing. They want you to integrate into their life and the people most close to them know you.
-Things are horrible for you if you don't compile though. As a group, they would decide on humiliation to get you to come to them. Whether that be insulting your character or your family's name. They will find a way to drag you down to the point where you are crawling to them. "Aww, feeling friendly now are we?"
-marriage is completely out of the question for your dynamic (and the ton's social climate) with the brothers so you're more of a permanent house guest. Each brother will insist on spending one-on-one time with you and will throw a fit if they thinks one brother had one second longer than they did. So you will consequently be playing mediator making sure you give each brother the attention they want.
-with Colin he prefers to just hold you. I can just imagine him burying his nose in the crook of your neck for hours on end and being totally content. He just wants to bask in your presence and spend time with you :( He wants to take you across Europe but he's too paranoid for that so he'll just settle for taking you around the grounds on his horse while he whispers sweet nothing in your ear. "How does riding for the day sound... just you.. and me... all alone."
-Benedict is a whole different monster. He prides himself on being an artist so everything in his love language is centered around that ideal. You're his muse. his Mona Lisa to his da Vinci. The Juliet to his Romeo. He's just as clingy as Colin, but somewhat worse in a way. He'll have you pose for hours while muttering words of praise. He spends all of his time admiring you. He wants to feel you and crawl into your skin so the two of you can be one. He's poetic that way. "Sh- sh.. Hah- ha ha.. Now, now, don't move darling, you look so perfect at that angle."
-Now Anthony. He's strict when it comes to you. Always wanting you to say and do things in a certain way. He’s the most levelheaded out of the three but also the most isolating. He wants you by his side always and is completely bossy. Want to gaze out at the garden? no, you might catch the eye of another. Do you want to cut your own meat? no, you might choke so the servants must do it. The only word that truly describes him in this scenario is protective. "There's no need to move darling, I have everything covered."
-they all bring out the worst in each other but also weirdly they keep each other in check. You're way less likely to be yelled at or endure any extreme outburst from any of the brothers simply because the others will swoop in and shelter you. Competition is still present in your guy's relationship but when they are operating with each other is more harmless, like impressing you in family games, or seeing who can find the dress you'll like best. You basically just have three very unstable guard dogs at your side who will do anything, but let you leave, for you.

hey there, just wanted to say i really love your swap au!!
i do have a question in mind though, does N sacrafice himself the same way uzi does in episode 7?
Tumblr media
yes. yes he does :) I mean, after losing his little sister, realizing he probably just kicked his dad down a hole and having JUST reunited with Z after going through torture the whole time... .. he felt like he still had the chance to do something right. That, being to save Z's life by sacrificing himself :(

i think the actual disconnect between nie mingjue and jin guangyao is that nie mingjue is dying and knows he's dying and has to stick so so so closely to his morals and virtues or else it'll have been for nothing and then he'll have to come to terms with the fact that maybe he didn't actually have to die after all vs jin guangyao who wants to live, he wants to live and be safe and have all the things he was told he could never have-was told he was never good enough to have-and will do almost anything to make it so. and these are two like irreconcilable point of views right (and both Correct and Wrong at the same time) and so they can't understand each other because they aren't even having the same argument and neither of them can see that
#nie mingjue#jin guangyao#nieyao#it's good!!!#i think nmj never expected to survive the war against the wen too maybe so after he's both floundering and STILL dying#characters that didn't HAVE to die like that but did anyways because societal/family/narrative pressure etc >>>>>>>#⚰️#I've been told it's real sweet to grow old#i think there's also this disconnect between the two of them in the story as a whole re that steinberg quote i posted earlier about kleos#nostos (glory seeking vs home coming)#where jgy is the kleos or glory seeker and nmj SHOULD be the nostos (@#(and he IS to an extent) but also he ISNT because again he is dying-he knows hes dying you cant extract that from his character#and so there SHOULD be this conflict here from that but there just isnt because nmj isnt filling that role properly and i think that's part#of why jgy cant understand him#jgy is the kleos but nmj isnt a glory seeker (not outside of like the war and he's not doing that for glory etc) but he's also not nostos#he's theseus in the king must die#(sorry for referencing a bunch of shit in th tags pls pls pls ignore my rambling to myself about characters that are barely ever on page/#screen and so we can never actually fully contextualize them because we dont actually know them but oh boy oh boy can we try)#so like what does a guy who will (allegedly) give up anyone and anything domestic to gain/retain status do against a guy who otherwise#would be the opposite and unwilling/unable to sacrifice anyone for these things do when said guy does neither 🤷‍♀️#mine

Strangers From Hell Incorrect Quotes [13/?]
insp.
#strangers from hell#seo moonjo#yoon jongwoo#gifset#*#incorrect quotes#//#ok so technically the quote is from IWTV#but what inspired me was this one fic I read yesterday#where Jongwoo tells Moonjo he hates him while they're making out#and the Moonjo there enjoyed that so much. So much you'd think that's dirty talk to him#and. hm. yeah. to me that tracks.#the idea of being able to get under Jongwoo's skin deeper than anyone else#to provoke burning and disorienting reactions with your existence alone#in such a way you just CANNOT be ignored#that sounds. uh. pretty good. very satisfying. from a Moonjo point of view.#but. why did I match this dialogue with this scene you may ask-#well for one I really like the acknowledgement that comes with ''as you should''#no denial. no begging. no bargaining.#if that person hates you that's because you gave them a reason to and you know it#you know you deserve it#you deserve the consequences of your actions. your punishment.#this time. from this one person.#the one person you hold in higher regard than yourself. the only one whose feelings matter more than your own.#if you're in the receiving end of their rage and disgust you should cherish it#that might be all you are ever gonna get from them. all of them that is ever gonna be yours.#their hatred might be the most personal‚ most intimate feeling they will share with you.#... and that's why I picked this scene: the closeness. the intimacy.#Moonjo's surrender. the way he just lays there and wait. watch. the look of reverence in his eyes.#reverence tinted with fondness and pride. with bliss.

I think the problem. the problem is that I have always been afraid of not being invited into the inner circle. and am always wanting to be part of the inner circle. inner circle being the circle of love and companionship and communion. of course being a TCK and a bit of a sheltered homeschooled oddball child has nudged this further along over the years. but I didn't realise how STRONG that desire still burned. to actually be wanted.
#in other words today has been an oddly sad day! discovering that the friends you've made have their own group chats#that are separate from the general group chat (that no one ever talks on) that you aren't a part of is......... i don't know#i KNOW i'm liked by them and i KNOW they love me but do they WANT me around?#like. i know i'm not UNpleasant to have around. i am a good listener and a good conversationalist.#i work very hard at it because it doesn't come naturally to me.#but clearly that's not enough to be added to exclusive group chats! clearly that's not enough to be part of inner core circles#i don't know this just came out of nowhere and i feel as if i've been slapped in the face#sitting at a table where people are talking about the thing someone sent to the group chat#or the photo or quote or reel someone sent to someone else is....... bizarre.#i am trying not to be so hurt by it! i am trying not to take it so personally#it happens. i know it happens. i know it will keep happening. it is just that i thought this was a place where i wouldn't be lonely#and this is the dorm community i've invested so much of my time and energy and love into since last year.#so i think i'm justified in being a little upset!#i'm not crying about it but that's because i'm not about to cry with other people sitting here in the study lounge!#the math is probably really wrong here but i thought that if i poured love in for the sake of pouring love in#somehow somewhere along the line i would also receive love. that i would actually be a part of this community.#anyway that's not going to change how i live here! i committed myself to doing my best this last year#because i don't want anyone to feel left out or unwanted or lonely. i already made the decision#to do everything i can to love the people here.#i'm not trying to toot my horn this is just what i actually want to and have decided to do!#i have birthday cards planned! i have midterm snacks planned!#i've just worked out how i can print christmas and easter cards and stickers!#i'm GOING to love darn it all i'm GOING to pour love in#i think it hurts especially because there's the boy problem going on too#of not being wanted in an area that i DIDN'T expect to be wanted in#and then learning that there is a collective not being wanted in this whole community#it is a Lot and it is very hard and i don't know what to do with it!#i have had this lie (that i'm inherently unloveable and undesirable) in my head since childhood#and i've worked SO HARD to shut that voice up. and it is so so hard to not believe it right now
