#oh hey I just remembered I even have this side blog XD

hey hey! im down for a little chat <3
-
i only found this blog like, 2 days ago but i can already feel myself getting the urge to go back and reread everything here. content of the highest quality over here <3 /gen
all the fics on AO3 would be really nice as well imo! although i cant say that i use the site that frequently, it could be a good way for others to find your works! at least thats how i see it
i think its due to how much i simp for this man, but i really love love LOVE the memory files. the trope is fairly common (from what ive seen) but the way you write it? chefs kiss. i am patiently but eagerly waiting for the next part mwah <3
the cup god chronicles were also a really fun read. i dont fully really see content (READ: fics) for him regularly so i was immediately intrigued and when i tell you, i was HOOKED. big fan, i love this doofus <3
-
now imma ask you something. who's your fave ego? my guess is engineer lol
also, whats your pronouns? i havent seen them listed anywhere ^^"
if you dont mind me asking, how long have you been writing? just in general. it seems like a basic Q but the answers are fascinating.
-
and as a last little tid bit of me im willing to share for the night, i read most of your works in around 2 hours. what that says about me is irrelevant,, goodnight, i hope this isnt too big of a text wall to answer <3
WAAAH thank you!! Also all of that in two hours?! Oh gosh! (And you're all good! I like big text walls!)
That was more or less my thought with posting them on Ao3! I know a lot of writers do cross-post them, so I figured "hey, why not". I...might end up doing that today, since I managed to pull a muscle in my back real bad in the night and I'm laid up in bed. gfhj
Ooooh, Lost Memory Files does tend to be a fan favorite. XD I'm really happy people like it! It...actually spun out of a similar idea but with Engineer and a Captain who can't remember wormholes and looping...heh. The next part, based on my loose notes, is likely going to continue the hurt.
Cup God Chronicles was really my first attempts at writing Night, the smug bastardass. The reader being a sarcastic little shit is in part I'm a sarcastic little shit, and in part based off of @ghostf1ux. I did notice there aren't a ton of fics for him that aren't...uh. Spicy. I have a couple more fics planned for it!
Favorite ego is 100% Engineer. "The smartest dumbass" was how I saw him described at one point and I'm like "yes. THIS ONE." There's something about like...realizing that even through all the hurt on both sides of that, he still fully trusts the captain? Despite everything. Never knowing the full extent of everything the captain goes through, despite his own misconceptions...
And well, hope is very important to me. So ISWM being very centered around never giving up hope kind of hit real hard, you know?
I DIDN'T REALIZE I DIDN'T PUT PRONOUNS ANYWHERE. ghjk WHOOPS. Honestly, almost anything! (My one exception is it/it's, and that's just because it doesn't feel like me. Big love to everyone who does though! Y'all rock it!)
I'm a genderfluid menace so they're always changing anyway!
How long I've been writing...the first thing I really clearly remember writing was either HP or Yu-Gi-Oh! fanfic waaaaaaaaay back in the day. I must have been about 10 or 11? So...20+ years at this point.
If I had to think about creative writing and doing it more consistently, that's closer to about...16 years? (I had to think about when I graduated high school and I felt like I aged SIGNIFICANTLY in an instant.)
One of my English teachers really drove a lot of confidence in my writing! Shout out to Mr. Craig, who liked some of my original stuff I had written for his class so much, he still has it and checks in from time to time on what I'm up to.
He's a big reason as to why I have an 111k original fiction novel and a novella I self-published for a while. He also did a front-flip off a stage with a lightsaber for a student-written play.

Owlish is back, Heh!
(Also reminding you on maybe tagging stuff as owlish again, but like, it's not supposed to come off as annoyed or mean cause I would've forgotten as well!)
Neutral and stable sounds good compared to before!
Also not having cried for 2 days.
I'm really sorry for you but glad that it sounds like it's getting at least a little better (also I'm very sorry cause while I love listening to people (I care about) talking about how they are feeling and why, I'm super awkward when it comes to responding)
Thank you ❤️ I‘ll gladly tell you as well!
Yesterday, I had a very positive therapy session which let me leave with a positive feeling instead of annoyed or hurt as usually (I dislike my therapist but if I’ll state that I can‘t work with her, I have to leave the psych ward and I definitely can’t do that right now. She‘s not very understanding of my problems and also there‘s quite a few things she said that made me feel unsafe so I can barely open up at all)
Also, on the way back with two friends from another therapy today we talked about owls (they’re my special interest) and they were super positive and we talked about how a few owls look like you walked in on them doing something (Micrathene whitneyi) or they look mad/judging (Athene cunicularia) and we laughed about it. It just made me feel great cause usually people dislike me talking about stuff I love and especially when it’s about owls for some reason, but they were just so positive. It was awesome!
Now I’m just super tired cause I had to take additional meds today due to being very antsy and not being able to calm down at all, I‘m cold cause my body has trouble to regulate its own heat and breathing is a bit hard due to me wearing my binder for probably a little way too long by now (but I don‘t have the energy to undress to take the thing off either)
Also I’m looking forwards to meeting the person I’m closest with here (she‘s on another ward) this evening (she constantly has to listen to me talk about Ghost but she‘s so sweet about it XD (she can’t remember anything but tries her best and she thinks I’m cute when I get excited about stuff (I‘m insecure about excitement due to expressing it through stimming, you know, but she‘s making me feel good about it))
So it‘s overall a feeling rather on the positive side which is strange but nice!
Wishing you the best too :D
~owlish anon
(omg yes I'm so sorry!! I noticed it today cause there was a like that came in on it and I went "oh, right, did I tag that correctly?" once I saw the aks in my notifications again, and lo and behold nope I had not XD So I tagged it right away but it was too late uh. Dude I'm so sorry, I'm such a creature of habit I have a hard time remembering new tags and stuff. I have someone else who came on the blog asking me to tag unmasked ghoul content and I feel it's sure some slipped by me despite trying and like XD I'll try more hahahaha thank you for the reminder dear, I appreciate it!)
Fuck yeah dude!! I'm at 4 days without crying now, beginning my 5th! It is Going! I appreciate your support ❤️
I'm so glad to hear you were able to benefit from a positive therapy session despite a having a therapist that's not a good fit for you. That's so hard. I've been in situations before when I put up with therapists that clearly were not right for me because I knew if I didn't take these sessions I'd be pushed back on the waiting list for 8, 10, 12 months, and I didn't know how to make it 12 months on my own you know. I knew session 1 there would be no theraputic alliance or trust from me whatsoever, but I figured I could at least gather tools and information to apply by myself at home. There can always be small things you take from crappy sessions that can stay in your brain and be a tool you have in your arsenal for the future.
Awww dude owls are so cool! I'm so happy you got a positive interaction where you could share about them! But hey! Hey dude! If you wanna share your favorite facts about owls or species or pictures in the future or something? I'm here! I love birds. I got super interested in the birds I could observe at my parent's house back in the day, the backyard / edge of the woods birds. I'd listen to cries and identify new ones I didn't recognize and photograph the bird feeders and stuff. So I know lots about, like, 15 birds species maybe xD Which is not much but that's what I would see daily. I know we have owls locally but I've not seen them so I didn't research them. Then again with a lot of them being super well camouflaged, it makes sense I didn't see any. So yeah, I'd love to learn more! Feel free to come to my ask box if it feels like a safe space to share, I'm interested in what you know and have to teach! :D
I hope you can get some rest, get warm and get comfortable dear. That's important.
And I'm thrilled to hear you've had someone to chat about Ghost with after that! Believe me I know a thing or two about being shut down for showing excitment or talking about a special interest. I was told all my childhood and teen years I was too loud or I talked too much or to lower my voice. Even now as an adult with a long time partner, I still apologize to her when there's something I love I inadvertedly talked about without asking for permission first. Its trauma dude. I get it. It's hard to get rid of. I hope you can find someone who will be genuenly invested in your interests in the future like I did. My partner doesn't give much of a fuck about metal or Ghost for instance, she's not a metalhead, but she happily lets me talk her ear off whenever something happens with the band or about the lore and the ghouls and she reads my fics even if she doesn't know the context and that makes a world of difference in terms of learning that your interests matter too. Cause they do. Owls are cool as fuck, Ghost is cool as fuck, and those subjects deserve respect by the sheer value of them being something you love. I see you.
Take care out there ok! Talk soon!

Tumblr media
You wiped the sweat off your brow. Standing back to view your handy work. With the help of Wrecker, of course. 
"What do ya think?" You asked with a small smile. Waiting for a response. Turning your head to see the bigger man rubbing his arm. "Wrecker?" You spoke. Voice lowering a bit. 
Your differing tone caught his attention. Looking up with a small smile. "Oh. It looks great, sorry!" He piped. Dropping his hands back to his sides. 
"Wreck, what'd you do?" You cooed. Stepping forward to reach and take his hand. 
He shook his head with a sigh. "It ain't nothin' but a scratch, sweetheart." He told you. The nickname made you feel just a bit bashful. A small smile creeping against your lips. 
"You're bleeding, Wrecker, why didn't you say anything?" You asked. Holding his arm with your hands delicately. 
"I was too busy watching you admire our work." He told you. "Plus I didn't wanna bother you with it." He admitted. 
You shook your head, motioning with it back to the Marauder. 
"No, big guy, you'd never bother me. Let's get it cleaned up. Last thing we need is you losing an arm." You spoke with an eye roll. Turning to head back to the ship. Letting go of his arm in the process.
He stood there for a moment. The thought shocking him a bit, but an idea did come to mind. 
"You're right, then I wouldn't be able to do this!" He exclaimed. 
He ran up in behind you. Sweeping you off your feet with his big, strong arms. Causing a yelp and a string of giggles to leave your lips as you clung to him. 
"Wrecker!" You exclaimed with a wide grin. The brute smiling back. 
"What? I thought you liked being carried around?" He teased. 
You did indeed love being carried in his arms. You always felt so safe. So loved. 
"I never said that," you said with another titter. 
He just nodded. Setting you down once you were in close range of the medical kit. 
"Now sit down for me, alright?" 
He nodded at your words. Taking a seat on a stool as he waited for you to fish out the supplies that you needed. Eyes focusing on you. Admiring you in the silence. He felt lucky just having you near.
"Tech, where is the first aid kit?" You hollered to wreckers brother. Who you knew was nearby. You could hear him working on his own project in the other room. 
"Oh! I left it in the Fresher. Was helping Crosshair with a blaster wound, remember?" He hollered back. Not even raising his head once to acknowledge your voice. 
"Oh, right," you and Wrecker shrugged to each other. You honestly didn't even realize Crosshair had been shot. But you weren’t about to let Tech know, and from the looks Wrecker wasn't either. 
"I'll be right back then." You spoke, tapping Wreckers nose. Causing a grin to explode on both of your faces. 
"No, no, I can go get it. You just wait here, pretty thing." He told you. Standing, then grabbing your waist. Planting you onto the stool that he was just sitting on before. Before you could argue and protest. He was off heading for the fresher. 
You smiled with a sigh. Listening to him rummage around through the cabinets. Then a small, "oh!" Came from the room. Which you assumed was a victory, 'I found it!' 'Oh!'
And that it was. 
He came back to where you were sitting. Handing you the bag as the two of you traded places once more. You rummaged through it to find the supplies you needed. 
"Give me your arm, pretty please." You hummed. Smiling softly as he watched you closely. 
"Anything for you," the words made your stomach do flips. Having to bite your bottom lip to hide the wide smile that threatened to spread. 
"This may sting a bit, okay?" You spoke. Looking you into his eyes as you held a disinfectant close above the wound. He gave you a weary smile, but nodded nonetheless. 
He knew it would hurt, and if you were one of his brothers he may complain or try and beat you away. But you were the love of his life, even if you didn't know it, yet. He wanted to show you that he trusted you. That he was brave and strong. That everything was alright when you were the one doing it. 
"Oh kriff!" He snarled. Clenching his jaw and scrunched his face. Hissing at the contact as you cleaned the wound. 
"Shh, it's alright, be tough for me, you're doing so well." Your little nothings made him nod. Pushing through the stinging sensation and fighting back the urge to shove you away. 
He kept his eyes closed. Waiting for you to be done. This was another reason he didn't feel the need to tell you he had cut himself. Opening them when he felt something press against his arm. Just in time to see you kiss, and then lightly pat over the fresh bandage on his tanned skin. 
"All better, hm?" You said in a questioning tone. He nodded. Smiling a bit dumbfounded at the action he just witnessed. 
"You know," he murmured. Eyes catching yours with a sheepish grin. "It hurts here, too." He tapped his chest. Your eyes follow his fingers with a small smirk. Heart fluttering in your chest. "Can I have a kiss here, too?" He asked. Voice lowered a tad. 
You hummed, questioning his words for a second. Though you had already made the decision the moment he asked. 
"I don't see why not." You murmured, leaning forward.
You kissed his chest. A small sigh leaving his lips at the sight. He wasn't sure if he was dreaming or not. Staring down at you as your lips gently grazed over his blacks. Then pulled back. Your hands resting on his thighs for balance. 
He wet his lips as he watched you. Eyes wide with awe and you just smiled. "Anywhere else?" You asked, quirking a brow with a snicker. 
"How about here?" He tapped his forehead this time. You could get used to this little game of his. Having to lean up just a smidgen to reach his forehead. Even when he was sitting he was still a bit taller. 
Your soft lips touched his skin this time, and he thought he could just about die. Then and there. Your skin was so soft and delicate. This had to be a dream. It couldn't be real. 
"Any place else hurt?" You cooed, and he nodded. Just this time he reluctantly tapped his lips. 
"Here?" It wasn’t really a reply like the others. This one was more so a question. His eyes swimming through yours. Giving you a questioning, and hopeful look. That still left enough space for you to say no or laugh it off. 
He was ready for you to laugh at it. Kiss his cheek and call him a dork. But you surprised him. 
Your hands resting on his thighs moved, making him recoil a bit. Thinking you were going to back off, but instead you put them on his chest. Eyes darting down to his plump lips. Then back to his eyes. 
"Well.. how 'bout we fix that, then?" You nearly whispered, and lent forward. He swore he was about to just toppled over and die. He's had near death experiences before, and the way his heart pounded in his chest, and he felt all light headed and dizzy? It was like a form of adrenaline for him. A sudden familiarity of when a blaster bolt came whizzing by his face. Just this feeling was a lot nicer than that. 
Your touch was soothing and soft, and when your lips were close enough for your noses to bump. You stopped. As if to ask if he wanted this, even if he was the one to suggest it. He didn't feel like waiting any longer. Not when he's been waiting for this since the moment he met you. When you were assigned as their mechanic. When time stopped before him and he swore he'd never seen anything more beautiful. 
He brought a large hand up to your face. Pulling your lips to his. His touch gentle and caring. It took you by surprise, even if he has picked you up and carried you before. Or tickled you, or even held your hand when he was in a situation where he needed grounded and you offered the gesture. 
For a man that was built to destroy, and was pretty damn good at it. He was always so gentle with you. The prime definition of 'gentle giant.'
Your eyes fell shut as the kiss deepened. His other hand moving to hold your hip. Your hands sliding up his chest to wrap around his neck. 
When the two of you pulled back you left your eyes shut for a moment. Breathing a bit ragged as you both attempted to refill your lungs. Eyes fluttering open to meet his that were patiently watching you. Small smile gracing his handsome features. 
"You feel better, now?" You asked. Voice breathy and dreamy. 
He nodded, leaning in to press his forehead against your head. Smiling like a drunken fool. Though your smile was probably just as big. 
"'Course I do, been dreaming about kissing you since I met you." He told you. The thought making your heart dance. 
"Really?" You asked. Rubbing the back of his neck gently. 
He nodded. Kissing your cheek softly. 
"You betcha, you stole my heart the moment I saw that smile of yours, sweetheart." He cooed. Nose grazing against your skin. 
You shuddered at the contact. Smiling sheepishly. "Yeah?" He nodded in agreement. "Well you stole mine the moment you smiled back."

DIABOLIK LOVERS Para-Selene Vol.2 Kino Animate Tokuten CD
Tumblr media
Original title: DIABOLIK LOVERS Para-Selene Vol. 2 キノ アニメイト 各巻購入特典ドラマCD
Source: Diabolik Lovers Para-Selene Vol. 2 Kino Animate Tokuten CD [CD not owned by me]
Audio: Here
Seiyuu: Tomoaki Maeno
Translator’s note: I have been active on this blog for over one year, yet this is actually the first time I’ve translated a solo Kino CD! I don’t know much about him as a character at all, so I’d be lying if I said he is one of my favorites. That being said, I actually enjoyed this CD a lot! The setting is perfect for Kino and I could just imagine him with a huge grin on his face the whole way through. xD
→  LIKE MY TRANSLATIONS? SUPPORT ME ON KO-FI!
The two of you walk around a game convention.
“Uwaaah! This is amazing! Look at that booth over there! Or that one! As far as my eyes can reach, there’s nothing but fun-looking games! As to be expected of a game convention! (1) I’ve never seen a scenery quite this beautiful!”
You sigh.
“...Hey, wait! Why do you look so troubled? I went out of my way to invite you along, so at least try and enjoy it a little!”
You tell Kino you never really asked to come here.
“Oh? I thought you said you wanted to go? Oh well, whatever. We’re here now, so might as well enjoy it, no? With this many games to choose from, I’m sure there’s at least one or two you’d liーー Ah! There’s a booth for beta releases!”
Kino suddenly dashes off.
*TIMESKIP*
“Amazing...There’s so many new games. Say, can I try this one?”
 He gets permission.
“Hooray! Hm?...Ah, sorry. I forgot about you. I’ll be here for a while, so you can go and play whichever game you want as well. I don’t have the time for you right now.”
You seem disappointed.
“Woah, that was close! I nearly died! ...You heard me, so bye bye! ...Uhm...How do I summon the magic? Uwah! They added this many new types? This game has a lot of potential for challenge runs. I’d really love to take my game playing this one!”
You walk away.
*TIMESKIP*
“Haah, I had a blast! In the end, I played through all of the demos at the booth. I guess about one hour has passed? Hey, youーー ...Wait, huh? She’s gone? Ah, right. I told her to leave, didn’t I? Then again, she actually left...what a dummy. Guess it can’t be helped. I’ll go look for her, I guess. ...Oh. That person over there...”
*SCENE SHIFT*
“...What are you doing here?”
You explain.
“Hah? This whole time, you’ve just been waiting for me, doing nothing?”
You nod.
“Haah...Listen up. Aren’t you a little too dumb for your own good? You could have just played around with your phone for a bit, enjoying yourself in your own way.”
You tell him you rather waited.
“I see. ...You really are a horrible masochist, aren’t you? Waiting for me like that...You’re almost like a dog.”
You protest.
“I’m only stating the truth, no? ...Come on, doggy. Paw! Your hand~ If you do a proper job, I’ll praise you.”
You place your hand in his.
“Good job! Well then...I’ll go on a walk with you like this. There’s a booth which caught my attention over on the other side. Let’s go?”
*TIMESKIP*
“Geh...!? What a crowd...Seems like VR games are still highly popular.”
You tilt your head to the side.
“You don’t even know that much? VR is short for ‘Virtual Reality.’ You can venture through an artificial reality by using a device.”
You still seem somewhat puzzled by the concept.
“Well, they say a picture is worth more than a thousand words, no? For now, go try it out!”
*Flip*
“Here! A ticket for the try-out section. I actually got it for me, but I’ll give it to you instead.”
Your eyes widen in surprise.
“What’s with that expression? Is it so strange for me to do something for you?”
You nod.
“I feel like spoiling you every once in a while as well, you know? Well, it’s an owner’s job to look after their pet after all. Heh~ Besides...I’m sure I’ll be able to witness something very interesting.”
The two of you walk towards the try-out corner.
“Miss, we would like to try out the VR simulation. Ah, not me, but this young lady over here. We don’t need any earphones.”
He receives the gear.
*Rustle rustle*
“Well then, go ahead and leap into the fascinating world of Virtual Reality~!”
*Beep*
You seem somewhat restless, looking around. 
“Hehe~ You should find yourself in an abandoned buildng right now. To tell the truth, this is a horror game, you see~”
You shriek in surprise.
“Apparently the zombies in it look super realistic! I can follow along through the screen so try your best not to die~ ...That being said, this really does feel authentic. I can imagine it must be really terrifying seeing it through the VR gear. You poor little thing~”
You ask to take off the device. 
“Oh come on, what are you getting cold feet for? Just standing there is no fun, is it? Come on, hold onto your gun.”
You have a hard time holding the gun properly.
“Geez...Guess I have no other choice~”
*Rustle*
“Don’t make a fuss just because I’m holding you from behind. I’ll teach you how to use this, so make sure to remember it.”
Your cheeks flush bright red.
“Say, what are you getting all red for? Did you get excited because I’m pressed up against you? ...Do you want me to help you?” 
You ask for help.
“Hmm~ But too bad~ I’m sure it’d look hilarious to see you get all scared, so I won’t play along with you.”
You pout as Kino steps away.
“...Hehe~ Well then, let’s see how far you can get without me.”
You hold your gun and start looking around.
“Ah...On your left! There’s a zombie in the distance!”
You scream.
“Ahaha~ Oh come on, don’t scream so loudly like that.”
You protest. 
“Fufu~ Are you sure you have the time to scold me now? ...See? The zombies are closing in on you!”
You start panicking.
“Hahaha, you suck! What’s your plan, cornering yourself against the wall like that? Now you have no other choice but to jump down through the window! You should probably open the menu once. You should be able to view the map from there.”
*Beep*
“Mmh. Take a look at that and think it through. ...Anyway, you really are a klutz, aren’t you? At least try and get your act together inside the game! I get irritated just from watching you.”
*Rustle*
“Aah...You actually upset me on purpose, didn’t you? ...So I would suck your blood~ That shameful side of yours is rather... (whispers) cute, you know?”
You flinch. 
“Fufufu~ Your shoulders twitched just now! ...You really are so easy~ I made the right choice letting you play this one. I’m having a blast! Honestly, I might be satisfied by just this sight. Hm...”
You call out for him. 
“Hm? What’s wrong?”
You ask to hold hands so you’d be less scared.
“Eh? But...You won’t be able to shoot if we hold hands, right?”
You tell Kino you will use your free hand.
“I don’t think you can pull it off with just one hand, do you? Or rather, why do you want to hold hands that badly?”
You explain.
“Haah...? What are you saying? Honestly, you’ve...surpassed the point of being stupid, this is just outright crazy. You’re well aware that I’m a Vampire, yet you feel safe around me...Well, I guess it doesn’t feel bad to have you rely on me. Fine. I’ll hold your hand. In return...”
Kino sneaks closer, grabbing your hand. 
*Rustle rustle*
“...I’ll be having my way with you later, okay?”
ーー THE END ーー
Translation notes
(1) Called ‘game show’ in Japanese, but when I looked up the ‘Tokyo Game Show’ and saw some pictures, it looked very similar or pretty much identical to what I would call a ‘gaming convention’. The latter seems more widely known in the Western fandom, hence why I used said word.

About someone named M
@zannithinks​​ and @pocketsunshineharry thank you for the fun asks, my loves!!
💥 why did you choose your url? I’m a Gemini, ruled by Mercury, and let me tell you, this mind is nothing but a madhouse. So I’m very mercurial and living in a madhouse. And I liked the ring to it. It’s beautiful alliteration and this writer is so down for that.
💥 any side-blogs? if you have them, name them and why you have them. None! Just this one! Oh gods, can you imagine if I had more than one? I’d implode.
💥 how long have you been on tumblr? Less than a year! I’m pretty sure I signed up sometime last August.
💥 do you have a queue tag? There’s one I have but it became a tag accidentally. Something like “oh hey, look at me remembering I have a queue!”
💥 why did you start your blog in the first place? A fellow author friend, @louloubabys1992​ and I struck up a friendship over one of her fics and she drew me in to the fanfic side of tumblr. To be honest, I’m a bit of a mercurial magpie too, so all the pretty images (moodboards or otherwise) was enough to make me starry-eyed.
💥 why did you choose your icon/pfp? Welp. First off, it’s Louis. Can’t go wrong with such beauty. But I smile every time I see this photo of him so I like to think whenever people see my tumblr, they smile from the picture too! And, to be honest, this is usually how I’m feeling or the reaction I’ve got. It’s just perfect.
💥 why did you choose your header? I mean, I made it. I guess the trio of Louis like a movie reel just spoke to me at the time. I was going for a minimalist style that matched the theme of the blog.
💥 what’s your post with the most notes? I’m pretty sure it’s still my fic post for Three Days in February!
💥 how many mutuals do you have? How do you even check that?
💥 how many followers do you have? One. My beautiful goober of a puppy follows me everywhere because we have an unhealthily co-dependent relationship.
💥 how many people do you follow? This is a tricky question. I’ve got this weird quirk where I don’t scroll tumblr. Ever. I love everyone’s creative posts and am so excited to reblog them all, but they have to be sent to me. So I forget to follow people even though I consider someone my mutual as soon as we’ve interacted in some way!
💥 have you ever made a shitpost? Don’t think so!
💥 how often do you use tumblr each day? For scrolling, never. I sometimes go a couple days not touching tumblr and then a day where I’m creating posts or reblogging things or answering asks and taking several hours. I am... mercurial. XD

I love your blog! Have u ever considered making a side blog with rp for the binary bfs? If not/you don’t want to, that’s fine! It’s not for everyone, although if you could link some that do that’d be awesome! Anyways, how do you think Hawk and Demitri met? What was their first date like? Do the karate dads know?- Cherry
Oh my goodness, my inbox has been blowing up lately! :D Imma have to answer like 2 questions a day to have any hopes of keeping up lol
Hey Cherry! OMG thank you so much, I’m so glad you like it :D
TBH idk if I have time to run a full-on RPG sideblog at the moment--truth be told, it’s enough work keeping this one as active as it is! Haha XD I’ll still give all the snippets of that sweet, sweet Demetri x Hawk content that I possibly can on this blog though :D
BUT I think @sipping--snowflakes​ recently started a Demetri RPG blog and is actually looking for someone to roleplay Elimetri with them :D If any of my watchers are interested, hit them up!!! There is much binary boyfriend roleplay fun to potentially be had!!!
ON TO THE QUESTIONS
My personal headcanon on how Demetri and Eli met is that on the first day of kindergarten, Demetri absolutely would NOT shut up about dinosaurs and Star Wars to their class (I mean, come ON, little Demetri HAD to have had a Dinosaur Phase...I know it deep in my heart to be true). He wandered around to basically every table during Center Time/Arts and Crafts Time/Whatever the fuck they call that “free wandering-about-the-classroom-doing-whatever-activities-you-want time” in elementary school and chatted the ear off of every boy and every group of boys in the class (remember, this is Tiny Demetri, who DEFINITELY would not have the courage to speak to ANY girl XD). And every single boy, every single group, without fail, responds with “Oh my GOD shut UP go AWAY you’re so ANNOYING you weirdo” and poor little excited Demetri is just crushed that no one wants to hear about tyrannosaurus rexes and lightsabers--or worse, tyrannosaurus rexes HOLDING lightsabers and dueling with them. And then, finally, he gets to little Eli, sitting all alone (because no one wants to befriend the kid with the messed up lip), and LO AND BEHOLD! Someone is finally listening to him!!! And seems to actually care about tyrannosaurus rexes with lightsabers!!! Little Demetri is beyond thrilled to have someone to talk to. Little Eli, meanwhile, is also thrilled, because did this kid just talk his ear off about Obi-Wan Kenobi for 20 minutes straight and not mention the lip scar once? Demetri, meanwhile, is so caught up in his rambling that he doesn’t notice the goddamn lip scar is even THERE until they’ve already spent half the day together XD “ANYWAYS I THINK ONCE THE JEDI ORDER COMES BACK AFTER RETURN OF THE JEDI THEY SHOULD RIDE STEGOSAURUSES AND--oh, what happened to your lip?”
As for their first date...had to think for a while about the perfect first date for them would be. I was originally gonna say they’d just go down to Santa Monica Pier or something and just goof off, but I think Demetri would want to make it more special than that. I ended up headcanoning that they’ve always wanted to go to Universal Studios together growing up (mainly because of Harry Potter World, of course!!!), but neither of their families have ever really been able to afford it. BUT when Demetri and Eli finally get together, Demetri is like “fuck it, we’re finally gonna do this” and he saves up basically all the money he’s made at summer jobs and buys tickets for both of them to surprise Eli. Eli is so happy he starts crying, and then he gets angry he’s crying in front of Dem and is like “GOD DAMMIT STOP LOOKING AT ME THIS IS SO EMBARASSING, I’M TOUGH” and Demetri thinks it’s the cutest, funniest thing ever XD Then Demetri drives them both down to Universal and they both just have the best goddamn day of their lives and buy WAY more merchandise from Harry Potter World than is in any way wise XD And becoming “Hawk” has, for better or for worse, laid bare Eli’s inner adrenaline junkie, and he drags poor Demetri on every. Single. Roller coaster. Don’t worry, Eli is more than happy to hold his hand during the scary drops XD But Eli will not rest until they’ve ridden EVERY fast ride in the park and Demetri whines about it but secretly he just likes seeing his boyfriend that shamelessly excited about something! Also Dem takes a million cheesy couple selfies and posts them all over social media bragging about his cute bf, much to Eli’s embarrassment.
“Karate Dads” fksljchcbduswvc I love that this is like...the universal term for Daniel and Johnny now. I honestly could not be happier about it XD Daniel I’m sure would pick up on it first (Johnny, though I love him dearly, is just so very DENSE sometimes), either just kinda by reading the room or hearing about it through Sam (who probably has mixed feelings on it herself). I imagine being as protective of Demetri as he is, Daniel would pull him aside at some point and be like “Demetri wasn’t this guy the reason you pushed yourself to learn self-defense in the first place??? And now you want to DATE him??? Are you sure???” and Demetri of course would be like “Yeah he was in a really dark place then, but I’ve known him basically my whole life and I know he’s got a good heart!” and Daniel would probably be wary about it, but ultimately decide Demetri’s a smart enough guy to handle himself and trust him to make his own judgements. And of course, he’d figure if Sam can vouch for an ex Cobra Kai like Miguel turning over a new leaf and trying to be better, there’s no reason Hawk can’t, too. And seeing how much Eli cares about Demetri and how protective he’s gotten of Dem helps too, and Daniel would probably warm up to Eli eventually. Although, like Sam, I imagine it would take a cool minute. Johnny would probably find out through chatting with Hawk, and Hawk just kinda...accidentally lets it slip he and Demetri are dating, and Johnny just quizzically raises an eyebrow like “Oh? You’re dating the mouthy kid?” And Hawk just goes bright-ass red and Johnny remembers how Demetri went off on him on the first day of Cobra Kai all those months ago for making fun of Hawk’s lip, and he breaks into this HUGE shit-eating smirk like “yeeeeeah that doesn’t surprise me at all. Eh, it’s probably for the best. If anyone can toughen that kid up, it’s you. Although I hear he DID hand your ass to you when he kicked you into that trophy case, so maybe he’s not as much of a pussy as I thought.” (sidenote: Yes, I do think Johnny ended up hearing about Demetri’s KO kick...and was grudgingly impressed XD) And Hawk just...gawks at Johnny being THIS nonchalant about all of this and he’s just like “Sensei? You...don’t think it’s weird I’m dating a guy?” and Johnny just looks him dead in the eye and says “I don’t give a fuck if whoever you’re making out with has a cock or a pussy, or whatever, as long as it’s not gonna distract you during training. Just play Hide the Salamis on your own time.” And Hawk, now a blushing mess, is just like “Y-YES SENSEI” and stumbles out of the room XD Ironically I think Johnny would probably vouch for the relationship to Daniel later on, and be like “I mean, the kid DID switch sides MID-FIGHT to save that scrawny little nerd. That takes some serious balls, LaRusso. He clearly cares about the wimp, you can stop hovering over them like Demetri’s gonna keel over and die any second.”
Thank you for the ask, as always! More to come!

Hey I'm the person that request that Apollo caught reader and Percy kissing. Could you do a sort of part 2 of that where she gets injured on the quest and Apollo/Lester has to tell. She's in critical condition and might not make it and Percy's a wreck. Apollo can only think of hyacinth. But happy ending where she makes it. I always feel awkward requesting 2 times on a blog like I'm bothering them. So if I'm bothering you I'm sorry.
Come Back to Me Part 2
Premise: Y/N got fatally wounded when the Waystation went under attack. When Percy found out, he refused to leave her side. Apollo can't help but think about his lover, Hyacinth. 
Masterlist
A/N: This was going to be completely written yesterday, but I tend to write in the evenings and it was 1AM so I went to bed because I forgot I had a meeting this morning XD Also!! You are never bothering me sending in requests! If you have any other requests or just want to send in an ask feel free to do so and I will be more than happy to write it/respond to you! This fic is something I’m particularly fond of because I love Apollo’s character development in TOA, and it was fun to play with. There’s a bit more focus on Apollo than there is Percy, but I still really love it. Hope you do, too :D For context in this: Y/F/F = Your Favourite Food
The guilt Apollo felt worsened as he approached the apartment complex for the second time this year. This time around, however, he wouldn't find his daughter sprawled out on the Jackson's couch bored out of her mind from all the studying. He knew where she was, and he was afraid to break the news to Percy.  
His hand hovered over the buzzer, and he took a deep breath. His companion on this trip – Thalia Grace – nudged him to remind him why he came back. He mentally prepared himself for what was going to come his way before pressing the button, and the same female voice greeted him like last time. "Hello?" 
"Um, hi," the former God cleared his throat. "It's Apollo. I hate to stop by, but I have news that  Percy's going to want to hear."  
"Oh, I'll buzz you in," Sally's voice sounded as scared as Apollo felt. Percy's mother adored Y/N, and it comforted him to know she was being well taken care of. Especially because he couldn't.  
He reluctantly knocked on the door, and this time was greeted by the teenager looking worried and exhausted, rather than annoyed at his arrival. "What the hell happened- oh hey, Thalia." 
"Hey, Percy," the huntress gave her friend a sad smile. "It's about Y/N, can we come in?" 
Percy nodded and stepped aside. The tension in the air could be cut with a knife, only increasing Apollo's nerves. He really hated mortal emotions, still not seeing the benefit to them. They never seemed to be helpful in any situation, but he couldn't control how he felt. Especially when the topic happened to be someone he cared about. 
Sally, Percy, and his stepfather Paul led them to the small living room to chat. The son of Poseidon had an intense look in his eyes, filled with concern and resentment. Apollo had a feeling the resentment was directed towards him but opted to believe the opposite. He couldn't bear to look anyone in the eye as he told them what had happened.  
Y/N was at the Waystation when it went under attack, and Commodus had his Germani holding her, Emmie, Georgina, and Leo hostage. In an attempt to help her escape, Apollo managed to reveal his true Godly form which blinded the New Hercules and his troops. In doing so, the Germani holding Y/N hostage wounded her before turning into dust. The wound was fatal, and it didn't look good for her.  
Percy stayed silent as Apollo explained, his expression changing from anxious, to angry, and then distressed. Everyone present waited for him to say something, but it seemed as though he couldn’t. Sally instinctively brought her son into a comforting hug, and at her touch, the boy burst into tears. Y/N had been injured in fights before, but never severe enough that it was likely she wouldn't survive.  
Apollo couldn't help but get choked up himself. He had grown fond of his daughter in the two months he spent with her on the Quest. Despite the constant near-death experiences, Apollo had gotten to know her beyond a hero. It was his fault she was in this state, and he was worried the demigod sitting in front of him would blame him as well.  
"I need to be with her," Percy wiped the tears from his eyes, speaking more to Sally than anyone else.  
"How safe is the Waystation right now?" The woman asked kindly.  
"Percy will be in safe hands," Thalia answered, smiling as Sally. "I'll make sure he gets back to you in one piece."  
"Go, Y/N needs you right now," Sally squeezed Percy's shoulder. As soon as Sally said that, Percy rushed to his room, and emerged with a duffle bag not even a minute later.  
He hugged his parents goodbye and left with Thalia and Apollo. The demigod radiated anguish, causing the tension to increase between the three of them. Thalia glanced at Apollo, a look of pity in her eyes. She was worried about Y/N like everyone else, but she had a feeling she would be okay. It would just take time for her to heal.  
*** 
Percy hadn't left Y/N's side since he came to the Waystation. Emmie and Jo were worried about the boy, trying to convince him to eat more than just some toast for the fifth time that day. Leo tried to help as well, noticing that his friend wasn't sleeping at all.  
It had been two days, and Y/N's condition hadn't changed in the slightest. While Jo tried to convince the residents that it could mean good news, Apollo could tell she was as worried as the rest of them. This was a difficult wound to treat, and quite frankly it was a miracle Y/N had lasted this long.  
Apollo couldn't help but think of Hyacinthus when he had dropped by to visit his daughter in the infirmary. Percy looked completely broken as he gripped her hand, reminding him of how he felt when his lover was killed by Zephyros.  
In his eyes, Hyacinthus was the most beautiful man he had ever been with. The love that Apollo felt for him was still prominent to this day, causing the former God to compare all of his lovers to him. It still pained him to think about his lover, and the Hyacinth was a painful reminder of what he had lost. Due to Zephyros, Apollo would never feel a love like that again carrying the burden of grief for the rest of his Immortal life.  
Percy felt the same way about Y/N that Apollo felt for Hyacinthus, and it broke his heart. The boy didn't even notice when there were other visitors around, and Apollo was convinced that the demigod barely even knew where he was at this point. The only thing Percy could focus on was his girlfriend, who seemed paler since the last time Apollo came to visit.  
He held his daughter's free hand, finding himself praying to anyone that would listen. Don't you think this is punishment enough? Putting me in this pathetic mortal body, and putting my own life at risk? Y/N doesn't deserve to die, she has an entire life left to live. Please, don't take this away from her. She doesn’t deserve this. 
*** 
Y/N had gotten herself injured before, but the pain this time around was unbearable. She was weary when she woke up, and only vaguely aware of where she was. All she remembered was being held hostage by the Germani, and a sharp pain as she shielded her eyes away from Apollo's Divine form. The next thing she knew, she was confined to a bed in an infirmary with... snakes? 
The next thing she became aware of was the boy sitting next to her. His jet black hair was a mess, and his sea-green eyes were red and puffy. He had an iron grip on her hand, to the point that it almost distracted from the pain she felt from her wound. "Perce, you may want to lessen your grip a bit there." 
Her throat was extremely sore, and her voice didn't sound any better. Percy didn't seem to care, though, seeing his girlfriend awake. Exhausted and in pain, but awake. He almost fell out of his chair in shock, amusing the girl to no end, but quickly recovered. The smile on his face was infectious, and Y/N was pleased to see him. "How are you feeling?" 
She was about to reply when Jo came running in. "What's going- Oh! You're awake."  
The old woman looked relieved and rushed over to give Y/N some nectar. It tasted like Y/F/F and Sally's blue cookies. Her strength returned enough that Percy was able to help her sit up. "How long was I out?" 
"Three days," Percy answered, moving to sit on the edge of the bed. "We didn't think you were going to make it." 
"You really think I was going to die?" Y/N snorted. "Gods, what a lame way to kick the bucket." 
"Not funny," Percy crossed his arms and tried to look disappointed in her.  
"It was a little funny!" 
"No, it wasn't." 
"Babe, you're smiling. " Percy rolled his eyes and leaned over to kiss her. He listened to Y/N as she recounted what had been happening the past seven weeks, overjoyed that she was back by his side.  
The two barely noticed Jo leave the room and Apollo watching them at the doorframe. He was glad his daughter was okay and even happier to see her smiling. He wasn't sure if it was because his prayer was answered, or some sort of miracle happened, but he was grateful to know that she was alive. Apollo wasn't about to let Y/N lose the love of her life, especially at such a young age.  
At that moment, Apollo knew that he couldn't allow Y/N to join him on any more quests – even if it meant fighting with her about it. She was meant to go back to New York with Percy, and catch up on the schoolwork that she missed. The former God couldn't take that away from his kid and preferred she live a boring life for a while. As long as she was safe, it didn't matter to him.

Dream, Help!
Prompt from: this tiktok
Hello! It's not my first time writing but it is my first time finishing a piece :3 If you do read this, thank you for taking the time to do so! It really means a lot to me :))
P.s. This is not a writing blog but I will post stuff whenever I feel like it xD
“Dream! Help!” George ran away from a sword-wielding Sapnap. “AAAAAAAA DREAM!”
Dream let out a soft laugh as he watched his two friends play cat and mouse. “Sapnap, stop it,” he called out to the hell-born who was swinging his sword around and laughing like a maniac.
“Why should I? He started it!” Sapnap took out his bow and lit one of his arrows on fire before taking a shot at his prey, purposely missing him by a hair.
“AAAAAAAA! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?” George screeched, running towards Dream. “DREAM, GIVE ME FOOD, I’M ALMOST DEAD, HELP!”
Dream grabbed a gold apple from his inventory and threw it at George, who out of panic, failed to catch it properly. Instead of running away, he chose to pick up the apple from the ground, which opened an opportunity for Sapnap to make his move and- “SAPNAP!”
“BAM TAKE THAT,” followed by loud laughter from Sapnap. “You should’ve known better than to mess with me, Georgie~”
An annoyed George comes out from the community house, bare of armor and items, pointing at Sapnap, “Dream! Kill him! That’s not fair!”
“I mean, you did start attacking him out of nowhere,” Dream chuckled.
“Hah! Take that!” Sapnap stuck his tongue out, mocking George.
“I’ll just give you something of your choice from my ender chest, how about that?” Dream offered to George while he helped him pick up his stuff.
“What?! Not fair!” Sapnap complained as he looked at Dream with furrowed brows.
“Hah! Take that!” George mocked Sapnap, a smug smile forming on his face.
Dream walked towards Sapnap, leaning towards his ear while George was busy celebrating and re-equipping his items, “I’ll give you something too, don’t worry. You know he won’t stop being a little prick unless I give him something,” he laughed. “Just don’t make it too obvious that I said this to you, alright?”
Sapnap grinned and patted Dream’s back, “of course.”
As soon as George finished gathering all his items again, the trio decided to go on a journey to gather more resources. Dream looked at his friends dearly while they argued about whatever it was they decided to argue about, knowing they’d be cool and joking around again in a few minutes. ‘A close happy family, huh?’ he thought to himself and smiled.
-
Dream snapped out of his trance, laughing bitterly. ‘A close happy family? Bullshit.’
Sapnap betrayed him; chose to side with the others. Dream didn’t plan on surrendering, but he didn’t plan on killing everyone, anyone, even. Sapnap just had to rub it in his face that he wasn’t with him anymore; that he believed that what he was doing was wrong and that he was a terrible terrible person. Dream couldn’t believe that one of his closest friends had chosen those powerless cretins over him, just because he was a bad person in his eyes, especially since he had good intentions and was just trying to bring everyone together, so he let the dreamon part of him take over, not enough to make him lose consciousness entirely and just go apeshit, but just enough to give him the right amount of power to eliminate everyone in the room.
So there he was now, trying to find George in the nether, hoping that he, at least, was still with him. With a little more wandering, he finally found his friend, sitting at the edge of a floating island of netherrack, one push away from losing his last life. A smile made its way on Dream’s face as he approached George, “Geo-”
“Get the fuck away from me, Dream.”
Dream took a step back and took a better look at his friend’s back. He saw that his shoulders were shaking and deduced that he was crying. His previously sour mood softened a bit at the sight of his friend being vulnerable, leading him to crouch behind him and tap his shoulder “Hey, what’s wrong?”
“Wha-” George turned around glaring at Dream. “What’s wrong? What the fuck do you mean what’s wrong? YOU KILLED SAPNAP. YOU KILLED EVERYBODY. AND YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO ASK ‘WHAT’S WRONG’?"
Dream’s expression hardened, realizing that George wasn’t with him on this one, that he probably thought he was a bad person too, that he was gonna abandon him too. "TELL ME GEORGE. WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO? WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE IN MY POSITION, HM? I WAS JUST TRYING TO DO SOMETHING GOOD BUT A PERSON WHO I BELIEVED WOULD STAY WITH ME NO MATTER WHAT DECIDED TO BETRAY ME BECAUSE HE THOUGHT WHAT I WAS DOING WAS BAD! SAPNAP CHOSE THE OTHERS, GEORGE. WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO?" Dream screamed at George, expecting him to understand where he was coming from. Unfortunately for him, all that got from George was a look of disbelief, and even more screaming.
“Oh I don’t know, Dream. Maybe-” George stands up, making the other do so too, and stares into Dream’s eyes. “Maybe realize that what I was doing was WRONG? TRY TO REPENT? TRY TO CHANGE? I DON’T KNOW, MAYBE NOT KILL SAID PERSON AND EVERYONE ELSE AROUND BECAUSE THEY’RE IMPORTANT TO ME?" George sighs and rubs his eyes harshly, “you- you’re a bad person dream. You’re a terrible person. Don’t fucking come near me ever again.”
George tries to leave Dream and go back to the overworld, but it was too late for him. Dream’s anger had gotten to him already, making him punch George, who lets out a scream as he barely holds on to the edge of the island. "DREAM, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? PULL ME UP, NOW."
“You’re no fucking different from him, huh,” Dream laughs as he runs his hand through his hair. “I thought we were family. I thought we were supposed to stick together till the end. But hey, morals, am I right?”
“Dream I’m not fucking kidding, pull me up!”
“What was that one quote those L’manburg fuckers like so much again?” Dream tapped his chin, “ah yes, i think i remember. I think it was-” he smiled sinisterly. "It was never meant to be." Dream stepped on George’s hand, making him scream for help, fall to the lava and burn to his death.
“No fucking way I’d help you. You couldn’t even do the same for me,” Dream huffs out as he tried to keep the tears that were threatening to spill from doing so.
He laughs bitterly as he shouts and mocks his former ally, "Dream, help!"

This took more time than I thought, but hey, I'm ready! So thank you @meitanteisachi tagging me, it means so much to me <3
1. Why did you choose your url? Umm, well… I don’t know? xD I didn’t have any other ideas at that time :D
2. Any side blogs? Nope
3. How long have you been on tumblr? I have no idea, but my first post was from September 2016. So at least since then :D Though I remember that there was a long time when I just lurked, I don't really remember when I made my account, and sadly I didn't find any info about it.
4. Do you have a queue tag? No, I don’t
5. Why did you start your blog in the first place? Well, I have always wanted to belong somewhere, have a friend who likes the same things as I do, because I have so many thoughts, but I don't have anyone to share them with. I found Tumblr, I kinda like it, so in 2016 I wanted to try to get along with the Avengers fandom. Well, I didn't do a very good job with that, so I gave up and started to lurk again. But then I found Detective Conan and again, I didn’t have any friends who would know it or even wanted to talk about it, so I was alone again. So in Tumblr, I found DC fandom and ShinRan shippers and I thought that maybe I should try to get active as a follower and that way make some friends. Yet someone (yeah, the same person who tagged me <3 ) told me to post my ShinRan headcanons, so… here we are, I think? :D Well, I admit that I haven’t done a very good job with my blog, but I kinda want to be more active. I just… I don't know, maybe I should try to find more courage to post some headcanons and try to write more fics (though I have written some fics for ShinRan week, so hopefully there is something you like to read :3 )
6 . Why did you choose your icon/pfp? Well, I remember how much I loved that smiling Conan from the beginning of the series <3 He got so excited to search that treasure after cracking that code :3 Art is also somehow so cute. Don’t get me wrong, I also love the new style, but there is something with those round faces and all… Somehow Ran and Shinichi look younger at the beginning of the manga/anime than with nowadays style… They look more like adults. Probably it's just me, but I also like that idea x)
7. Why did you choose your header? Oh, I just took a photo of a cherry tree that grows on the inner court of our apartment building, and at that time I just didn’t know what to do with my blog, though I still wanted it to look nice, so I made it to my header (though when I last night looked at it from the computer, it looked terrible xD)... Kinda want to change it, but I don't know which would be the new one.
8. What's your post with the most notes? Well, it is this one. Have to admit, I was a little surprised to see it, but I'm also happy about it. In the end, Shinichi is pretty cute when he can't take his eyes away from Ran :3 And the other reason is that it did its job like I hoped <3
9. How many mutuals do you have? Four, basically five (because they follow me and I follow their side blogs x) )
10. How many followers do you have? 66. And I want to thank you all for following my blog <3 I hope that I got myself more active and be worthy of your follow :)
11. How many people do you follow? 91
12. Have you ever made a shitpost? No
13. How often do you use tumblr each day? It depends... At least every morning and evening I scroll over my dashboard, but somedays when I'm bored, I can spend much more time here.
14. Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog once? Who won? Nope, and I hope that I don't even have to. I don't like to fight or have arguments because I have heard my parents do that much more than I care to remember, so hopefully, we can talk peacefully here and respects everyone's opinions :)
15. How do you feel about "you need to reblog this" posts? Once upon a time, I share some of those, but not a long time and probably not gonna do it. I have been thinking that I want to concentrate on ShinRan on my blog.
16. Do you like tag games? Yeah, they are fun to do, and it makes me feel like I have made a friend :)
17. Do you like ask games? Well, yeah, I think so… Not sure if I have ever done any ask games, but it’s somehow always fun to answer some questions.
18. Which of your mutuals do you think is [tumblr] famous? I respect all my mutuals, but truth to be told, I don't think any of them famous. This sounds so wrong, but the truth is that they don't give me the feeling that I couldn't just go and talk to them. To me, they feel like normal people who have done much work for their blogs and got many followers and all - and they deserve them. But that's why I like them and follow them! They don't behave like they would be above others. Of course, I have been happy to see that they have started to follow me, but I'm also been very happy with every follower who has shown any interest in my posts. Because to me, that means that there are people who also love (in this case) ShinRan and everyone has welcomed me to be part of the "community" :3 I really hope that this doesn't sound too disrespectful...
19. Do you have a crush on a mutual? No.
20. Tags: I kinda want to tag someone, but I don't really know who, so I do this: I tag you ;)

hi :D! can I request scenario (or headcanon if easier) of apollo asking out the reader? Maybe the whole office is tired of them not asking each other out after having to deal with their tension. And I love your blog by the way! Sorry for my English :,P
Hi Anon uwu I see that you’re all thirsty with Apollo around here XD I actually find scenarios easier, but I’m so slow with them- So, sorry for the long wait (almost a month, I’m sO SORRY), but here it is uwu (Hope you’ll like it <3) -------------------------------
Apollo Justice asking you out:
The trial ended but Apollo almost lost the case because of the distraction that has afflicted him for days now
“WHAT. IS. YOUR. PROBLEM?!?!” Athena shook his shoulders with tears in her eyes "I’ve felt the heart in my throat more than once today! What do you have these days?!" She was stopped by Apollo, trying to calm himself down.
“I-I’m sorry, I didn’t want to make you feel like that, I don’t know what’s up wit-” He was interrupted by the noise of the hall’s doors opening.
“Next time you should take something to concentrate and calm yourself down Apollo; otherwise, who will give a lead to them?” He sighed looking at the figure at his side; the one who’s messing Apollo’s head.
“Instead! The way he solved this case really thrilled me, congratulations!” As they smiled, the red-suited lawyer’s face became as red as his clothes
“I-I didn’t do anything special, I only did what I had to” He rushed out the tribunal, hiding his face and starting to return to the office with his feet to ignore the annoying voices of those around him.
For some days, Apollo decided not to take any case to be sure not to do more damage like last time. During this break time he made up his mind; he tried to understand what was wrong with him, slowly understanding that the “what” was, in reality, a “who”. It’s been less than a year since their new colleague joined the agency as an apprentice and recently, even if he knew it, something within prevented him from taking that step forward that would make him make peace with himself; probably because of his inexperience or the fear of being rejected.
“Listen. Go to them with some flowers or any kind of gift you think they may like and tell them! Or... you can take them out for dinner! A date at the beach? Go watch a film with them!” Asking advice to Athena was the worst idea possible.
Apollo started to help them with the preparations for their first case, taking advantage of it to learn to know them better and to gain some confidence in speaking with them. “To understand if a witness is lying, you must learn even just the basics of the art of bluffing! With that, you can also confuse momentarily the accusation and gain time to better reflect if, in the end, the objection leads you to nothing” Whenever he talks about his work, he became so excited with anyone he talks to.
“Ok! So, I must confuse the court if I have some doubts on my argument” They took notes on his advice like a real student.
“W-Well, maybe not the whole court”.
In the end, Athena came with them in court to help with her psychological skills.
“Remember, you’re fine! You and Athena will do great in there!” Phoenix had already taken them away from those two screaming eagles, patting on their shoulders to support them as they entered the courtroom.
“Athena was thinking of going out to dinner together when the verdict will be given and she specifically said that you can’t miss it; you’ll have your chance of asking “your distraction” to go out with you”
Apollo had to contain himself since they were among the public, but he was so close to throwing something to Athena. Even if the last days he finally gained the courage and confidence to talk freely with them, he still had problems with his emotions towards them. Someone will probably die that night.
At the end of the trial, luckily, the verdict was given and also thanks to Athena’s help, it was a “Not Guilty” one.
So, It’s dinner time! The happiness in Athena’s face is adorable. The fear, anxiety, and stomach cramps from the nervous were witnessed by the greenish face of Apollo. Phoenix had to sit between the two to prevent Apollo from stabbing Athena as a revenge for this
“Come on Polly! It will be fun” Athena tried to reassure him, but his head was completely somewhere else, trying to figure out where he was, why he was there and how he got there.
“So.. How I did today? I followed all the tips Apollo gave me last days” Luckily someone broke the silence and as soon as Apollo heard his name, he came back to the real world, remembering everything and feeling the impulse to answer that phrase with the first positive words that came to his mind.
“O-Of course you did great even if the case was simple”
“Don’t mind him, he’s saying things like that just because, with you, he’s the only one who didn’t have a simple case in the agency, not to minimize your efforts” Athena was playing the role of that friend who helps you whenever you say or do something questionable
“...I didn’t mean that”
“W-Well, even if it wasn’t simple, the ability and the courage both Apollo and Mr. Wright had to frame someone like Kristoph Gavin, made that case iconic for beginners like me; it showed all the knowled-”
“Wow, looks like Apollo has a new fan!” As Athena spoke, the faces of the two interested turned red, which made Apollo not so distant from a living version of a painting by Picasso since he already was green.
“I-I’m not! I mean, I have no preference since you’re all talented lawyers in this agency an-”
“Oh god, can you all please eat before it became ice?” Thanks, Phoenix.
During all the dinner, those two stole glances to each other, adding more red tones on their faces whenever their eyes met. Between laughter and stories of the previous cases, the evening flew away and those two weren’t going to step away easily from each other; after they started to speak like normal people, nothing and no one dared to stop them, so they continued to talk even out the restaurant.
“So, I heard that Apollo is such a gentleman that he proposed to bring you back home; am I right?”
“I didn’t say nothing but, if both of them have a heavy butt, it is my pleasure to drive you back home even if the back seat of my bicycle isn’t the most comfortable thing in the world” He tried to act cool, but inside he was panicking, hoping for a yes.
“It’s ok for me, the important is that is ok for you Apollo”
“I’ll never forgive myself if something happens to you so, get on” As they left, also Phoenix and Athena got their way home on Phoenix’s bicycle. Apollo opened his mouth only to ask indications for their home, using the remaining time to think about how to vocalize what he felt to finally free himself from this burden.
“It’s this one, you can stop” They got off and took their stuff “Thank you so much for giving me a ride” That last tired smile they painted on their lips, killed him. So much that he couldn’t answer their thanks. “I-I wanted to say something to you but... I guess you’re tired too, so don’t worry, I’ll tell you tomorrow at the office” They hoped for an answer, but all they could see was an ice statue of Apollo “G-Goodnight then”. As they walked toward the door, something waked him up 
“W-WAit!” He fell on the ground with the bicycle, getting up and going toward them at the speed of light, almost bumping into them.
“W-What is i-”
“Wait! I-I have to tell you something too, it is now or never, and if I don’t do it I’ll probably die” He tried to catch his breath, but his heart wouldn’t stop beating like a drum.
“Tell me everything, I’m here” They tried to calm him even if they probably were more worried than him, gently patting on his shoulders to reassure him.
“Just, please don’t think I’m some kind of dumbass for acting like this” he gently took their hands in his, looking down to avoid more embarrassment. “I like you. I liked you since the day I saw you for the first time but I only started to understand and accept it some months ago and, these months I could felt that something was happening inside me since I was always distracted, thinking about you, so I was thinking if you wanted to go somewhere together if you wan-” As he looked up, he saw two big teary eyes in front of him, feeling his heart collapse for a moment  “Hey! Why are you crying? You can also say no to me, I won’t feel offended or anything, p-please don’t cry!” He squeezed their hands trying to understand what he did wrong to make them feel like that, but their only response was a tight hug for him.
Their head rested on his chest and they freed their hands from his to bring them on his back, holding his jacket with all of their strength. “This is exactly what I wanted to tell you but, you’ve been braver than me I guess” They smiled to reassure him they were in the best mood of their entire life “Of course we can go somewhere together, I would love that too” They wiped the tears away from their eyes, looking at him to have answers
“Y-You would? Really??” You could see smoke coming out of both his ears and head from how heat he was emanating at that moment “I-I mean, I’m perfectly fine with that” He also smiled, feeling a lot lighter inside, but trembling with emotions on the outside.
They took the situation in her hands, literally, taking his face with them and pushing it towards them to reach his lips with theirs.
WARNING WARNING WARNING
A volcano is about to erupt
It took him around two minutes of small kisses to calm himself down, feeling happiness instead of fear and embarrassment in every spot of his body. “S-So-”
“Don’t say anything, we’ll talk about it tomorrow” They probably wanted to kill him
“T-Tomorrow?”
“It’s late and we need to be at the office on time tomorrow” They cuddled his cheeks, laughing at his mortified face 
“I guess you’re right. We also need to be efficient tomorrow, I should go” Hesitating, he freed their hands and turned towards the bicycle, still on the ground, to lift it.
“Thanks for today, from the trial to now and also for the days when you taught me everything I needed to know to win”
“I just did what I had to” He got on the bicycle again and turned back to wave his hand at them before the road for home.
“'Night and please be careful on the street! Love you!” They was just trying to mess up with him, and it worked since Apollo fell again from the bicycle for the sudden attack to the heart.
“A-Apollo!” Someone must save that poor boy for good this time.
Please.

Amelia - Chapter 7. Part 2
Oh man… she is in way over her head here.
Amelia had only JUST walked through the gates of Achena moments ago and she’s already overwhelmed.
Lovino had advised her against stopping and looking at the map he’d given her if at all possible. She’s supposed to hurry and find “the market” as soon as possible and not wander or stop long enough for anyone to pay her any attention, but… there is just too much here! How is she supposed to tell one building or street from another? How is she supposed to concentrate through the hum and bustle of cats walking around everywhere??
Amelia looks ahead at the wide main road filled with cats and lined with so many wooden buildings, they stretch farther than she can see! And she knows that there are tons of branching streets and alleyways too, each with their own lines of wooden buildings.
In the distance, looking over the roofs of buildings on her right, she can see a group of buildings towering over the whole town. They’re the tallest structures she’s ever seen before. Even the leaning one that looks to be supported by a giant tree is taller than the Sanctuary!
Not only are they huge, though. They’re obviously two-canes ruins. The familiar, smooth rock walls, perfectly square windows and sharp edges, though crumbled in many places and exposing their mysterious metal skeletons, are unmistakable. Much like the Sanctuary, wooden frames, scaffoldings, and even verandas are built over the ruins by cats in order to make the structures more habitable.
Amelia remembers Lovino pointing out that area on the map, but she just can’t catch her bearings like this. She’s glad Lovino’s cloak is hiding most of her face because she’s having a hard time keeping her uneasy expression off of it. On the other hand, it impedes her vision quite a lot more than normal and she bumps into two or three cats as she walks. Perhaps because they’re all taller than her by varying degrees, they don't see her in their path. Again, Lovino told her not to speak under any circumstances or it would be all over, but while she was figuring out a way to excuse herself without speaking, it seems like the cats had already moved on.
Amelia guesses that cats must bump into each other all the time here… So weird. How can they stand it?
Come to think of it, if she’s not allowed to speak, how on earth is she going to find Mattie in all of this mess? Lovino told her to find Gil and Ludwig’s shop first. A logical idea, now Amelia sees how vast and crowded Achena really is, but if she can’t ask anyone how to find it… Amelia wishes she’d remembered the map better, but honestly the tangle of lines and squares didn’t make any sense to her. She thought she’d get by just on her instincts and tracking capabilities… Now she knows, there’s no way that’s happening.
“Hey kid, you dropped something!” Says a voice behind her. Amelia staggers for just a moment as she almost turns around to face the cat who’d called out. In this crowd, she can’t be sure that it was her he was referring to, and even if she had dropped something, it wasn’t likely anything worth engaging a stranger for. So she walks on, pretending she didn’t hear.
“Oh, don’t be like that, brother. I’m not gonna hurt you.” The voice continues and Amelia can tell that it’s owner is falling into step behind her. Dammit… “Look, I have it for you right here.”
Amelia quickens her pace, but finds that doing so makes it harder to dodge the many passing cats. She can feel that the presence behind her doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to catch up with her, but it continues to follow steadily. He’s stopped calling out. She really doesn’t know what it means. The cat isn’t exuding any kind of fighting will but something, likely the paranoia that had been instilled in her by the Sanctuary cats, has her on the run from him.
While she’s distracted she bumps into the arm of someone hard enough to knock her square into the chest of another. Or abdomen, more like… Amelia is so shocked at how tall and broad the cat standing before her is, her mouth falls open when her eyes finally trail high enough to find his face. The big guy’s own violet eyes widen in shock, mirroring her sentiment, at the sight of her much shorter self. They stand frozen like that for what feels like a very long moment. A long and horrifying moment, when Amelia realizes her hood’s fallen back and those violet eyes are scanning her face, ears, eyes, neck…
“Sorry about that!” That voice from behind Amelia calls out once again. “Hahaha! My friend here never watches where he’s going.”  
A chill raises the fur on the back of Amelia’s neck at the sound of that voice this time. She can feel now that there’s something wrong about him, and it’s not only because of the lie he’d just spun to “cover” for Amelia’s clumsiness.
Perhaps the chill had shown on her face as well, because Amelia can see the big guy’s expression change in an instant to one of understanding and then to one of recognition. He opens his arms wide and smiles at Amelia joyfully.
“Alyosha! It has been too long! Imagine, meeting like this!” He has a surprisingly delicate laugh, but gives a hearty pat to both of Amelia’s shoulders, then smoothly fixes her hood so that it covers her face again. “Tell me, how was your journey? Oh, but my manners. This tom here is your friend?”
Big guy gestures to the figure behind her and Amelia takes the opportunity to shake her head without looking back at him.
“Oh, dear! Well, an honest mistake I am sure.” Big guy says looking up, and she’s too close and he’s too tall to see whatever exchange is had between the two toms, but all she can hear behind her now is deathly silence. Big guy turns and places a large hand at her upper back to guide her forward into a dark and narrow alley, squished between two tall and long, wooden buildings. “Come, Alyosha, we have so much to catch up on.”
Ok… this… doesn’t feel any safer. But Amelia’s brain isn’t working fast enough in this unfamiliar situation to find an alternative escape route from either of these strange toms. Big guy continues to urge her further into the alleyway until the bustle of the main street is muffled and she can tell that they’d be difficult to see in this shade if anyone were looking in from outside.
Suddenly, moving unexpectedly fast for such a large framed cat, Amelia finds herself being lifted and thrown over a massive shoulder, and hauled up the side of one of the alley walls.
★TBC★ A/N: I’m posting these up so quickly after I write them.... Y’all are getting ROUGH pieces. xD; I get the feeling I’m gonna need to fill in a lot of stuff when I get to actually editing this chapter. Sorry again if it reads weird. If the newly used rusame tag brought you in, you can find a description of this project on my blog and the finished chapters at Ao3. 💕

Hey! How about a male reader scenario where the reader has an intense crush on Sawamura Daichi and finally confesses to him ( after a LOT of struggling) only to find out Daichi was also about to confess to him on the same day. Also i love your effort to make male reader scenarios. It really makes it easy for queer males to also have the same experience as straight female fans. Keep it up!!
Firstof all, thank you for your request! Second of all, duh XD I’m a gayguy myself so ofc I write gay fanfiction! Mymain reason to start this blog was actually my frustration caused bybeing unable to find decent HQ!! reader inserts where the reader islegitimately gender-neutral. Yes, even gender-neutral. There are some nicemale reader inserts out there but they’re few and far between.So I usually end up looking for gender-neutral insterts, headcanons, and scenarios but… Some of them areblatantly meant for female readers. Some of them claim to be gender-neutral but you can clearly see they’re actually not or just employ male and female gender stereotypes I’m definitely not comfortable with. And some ofthem are female reader inserts that are tagged as x male reader… SoI decided to say “fuck it” and create some content myself that myfellow queer readers can actually enjoy! LGBT people are alreadydenied the same experience regarding love and sexuality that straight people get so if I can somehow contribute to making this world ofours a little less fucked up for my fellow queer folks, that’s all I could ever wish for!
Okay, but enough of myinconsistent rambling and let’s get into the actual scenario!Although I probably have a crush on every and each HQ!! character(well, maybe except some of the older guys lol), Daichi is actuallyone of those I’d probably consider the best boyfriend material soI’m really glad you requested a scenario for him! Justfyi, I made the readerKarasuno’s 2ndyear manager so that Ihave something to start from, hopefully you don’t mind. Ireally hope you’ll like it! enjoy!
Also let me apologize that it took me so long to write this but for some reason, I’ve been feeling utterly uninspired lately :/ It took the first episode of S4 and a volleyball match I watched yesterday for me to finally get some inspiration to finish this scenario XD
Pairing: Sawamura Daichi x Male Reader
Word count: 1659
告り告られ — A Double Confession
“Oh come on, just confess tohim!”
“You know I can’t!”
“You can and you will!”Yachi’s eyes bored into you and you turned your gaze away, feelingas though those two goldenorbs were penetrating your very soul. “Why do you have to make itharder than it actually is? You like him, you confess, you gettogether. Simple!”
“Like hell it would go thatsmoothly,” you scoffed. “I don’t even know if he’s gay.”
“Oh come on, have you not seenhow close he is with Sugawara-san?”
“But that’s precisely theproblem!” You looked Yachi in the eye confrontingly. “If he’snot gay, I don’t even have a chance, and even if he is, I stilldon’t have a chance since he’s probably already inlove with Suga-san.”
“…you will confess to himeventually anyways,” Yachi cut the conversation, pouting.
You looked away. You knew she wasright. You were going to confess to him eventually. It’s just… Itwas so fucking hard to work up the courage. You’dhad a crush on Daichi since your first year, since a while afteryou’djoined the volleyball club.
Atfirst, it was all fun and games. Youjoined the club simply because you liked volleyball but getting towatch pretty boys get all worked up and sweaty while playing was anice bonus for you. Once you realized you liked Daichi, it got evenmore fun… for a while. Howmany people could say they get to see their crash shirtless on adaily basis?
But the longer you watched, thecloser you got to him, the more painful it got. Daichicould look scary at first, especially during practice sessions whenhe had to rein in first and second years, but asalways, appearances couldbe deceptive. Youmanaged to befriend him, also getting closer with Suga and Asahi inthe process, but soon yourealized that being just friends was hardly enough for you. Youstill couldn’t forget that one time when Daichi said you were “likea younger brother to him” and how much it hurt.
“All right!”
What snapped you out of yourcontemplation was Daichi’s voice. Whileyou were bickering with Yachi standing on the side of the court, theboys were actually training. Shimizu was in charge of taking notestoday so you and Yachi didn’t have much to do at the moment.
You turnedyour eyes in the direction Daichi’svoice had come from. Andthere he was, looking asgood as always, with that damn smile of his he always had on his faceafter a good receive, just a few feet away from you.
So close yet so far.
It was the day. It was the dayyou were going to confess to Daichi.
It had been a month since yourargument with Yachi. Over the last 30 daysand even more late-night phone calls with Yachi, you decided toconfess your feelings to Daichi. Even if he didn’t like you back,you wanted him to know what you feel. The days were growing longerand Spring High wasgetting closer and closer. Regardless of whether you won or lost, thethird-years were going to quit the club once the tournament was over.And once that happened,you were bound to grow more distant with Daichi, let alone having achance to confess to him. If you were going to do it, you had to doit now.
The morning sun was shininggently upon you as you walked through the schoolyard withyour heart pounding in your chest andyou still had like half a day to go before the actual confession. Youreally hoped your teachers wouldn’t quiz you today. You’dprobably fail it miserably since you couldn’t focus on anythingelse but the dreadful perspective of what was going to happen thisevening.
Yourplan was simple. You were going to take alittle longer cleaningup after practice so that you end up staying alone in the storageroom. Then, Yachi was going to “notice” that you’re missing andask Daichi to go and look for you because she had “somethingimportant to talk to you about.” If everything went smoothly, youwere going to end up alone with Daichi in the storage room. That wasgoing to be your chance.
When you were going overthe plan in your head walking down the hallway, your phone rang. Youpulled your phone out of your bag to find out you had a new text fromYachi.
“I’m sorry m(_ _)m”
You tilted your head. That wasall she wrote.
“What do you mean?” youtexted back as you entered your classroom.
You spent the first periodstressing over Yachi’s message. Whatever she was sorry about, itwas bound to be nothing good.
Turnedout Yachiwas sick.
Accordingto Yachi herself, he had suddenly felt really unwell last night whichhadturned out to beonly the beginning of a long, feverish night. Whenher mom had taken her to the doctor this morning, she’d beendiagnosed with a bad case of influenza. Shewould probably be staying at home for at least a week.
Yourplan was ruined, which of course made you very upset… but somewheredeep in your heart, you also felt kind of relieved that the momentyou were going to confess to Daichi was put off by at least a week,and you hated yourself for it.
Youlet out a deep sigh as you leaned against a mop you held in yourhands. Youended up being the last one left in the gym anyways, no matter yourplan. You’dlied to Shimizu and the guys about needing to clean up the storageroom—you needed some time foryourself.
“Needsome help?”
Youturned your face up to find the source of the voice only to be facesby Daichi leaning against the door frame, looking at you.
You gulped.
You didn’t even need your planto be left alone with Daichi.
If this wasn’t the heavenstelling you it was high time you’d confessed then what was.
“Yeah,actually, I’m really glad you’re here,” you said, lookingstraight at Daichi. “There’s something I need to tell you.” Yougulped. “I like you.”
Youfinally said it.
Daichi stood in front of yousilently, as though processing what you had just said, and you justwaited. You weren’t going anywhere until you got an answer,especially given that Daichi was standing in the doorway, blockingyour way. You had quite a spectacle to watch anyways.
Thefirst few seconds, Daichi’s face just… froze, as he stared at youunblinkingly. Then came a slight blush which gradually turned moreand more red eventually taking on the color of an especially ripebeet. Hecovered hismouth with both of his hands, as though he was in an utter shock.Which he probably was. It took him like half a minute to calm down.Once his blush subsided a little bit, he lowered his hands andfinally let himself blink.
“I… I like you, too,” hesaid quietly, turning his eyes away from you.
“No, I don’t mean it likethat.” You smiled sadly. “I mean it, like, in a romantic way.”
“That’s what I mean, too.”
This time it was you that foundyourself shook to the bone.
“What…wait, what?!”
“I actually came here toconfess to you,” Daichi explained, his blush growing brighteragain. “Shimizu told me you’d said you’d stay in the gym alittle longer and everyone else has already left so I thought it wasmy chance…”
You stared at each otherwordlessly for a few seconds. You were the one to start laughing.
“Whatthe hell is this?! Whathave I even been worried about this past year?!”
“Iknow, right?” Daichi giggled as well. “Wait,you’ve had a crush on me fora yearalready?!”
“Over a year, I’d say,” youresponded. “You?”
“You beat me on that one.”Daichi’s smile was really the most beautiful thing you’d everseen. “I’d say since the previous Spring High? You remember howyou cheered me up after we lost? That’s when I realized.”
“Isee.” You couldn’t stop grinning. “So I guess we’reboyfriends now?”
“I guess so.” Daichi grabbedyour hand and pulled you toward the door. “Let’s go hometogether.
“That’s so amazing!!!!!!I’m so happy for you two!!!!!!!!! And I’m so so sorry I couldn’thelp you today T_T”
You smiled at your phone. Yachiwas really the sweetest.
“If you hadn’t supportedme this whole time, I wouldn’t have confessed to him in the firstplace!”
“Sorry you had to wait.”
You put your phone back into yourpocket as you turned your eyes to Daichi. He had to grab hiss stufffrom the club room and you’d been waiting for him downstairs.
“No problem,” you responded,readjusting the strap of your bag on your shoulder. “Shall we gothen?”
“Let’s.”
You walked down the streetleading up to the school. You were talking and laughing, enjoyingeach other’s presence. It was late and there was nobody around.Daichi grabbed your hand and you squeezed it back.
“Hey,” Daichi started, hisvoice sounding a little anxious. “Don’t you wanna come over? Myparents are at home but I’m sure my mom will be happy to have youover for dinner. We could watch some movies or something.”
“Sure thing,” you respondedwith a smile. “I’d love that.”
Daichi smiled at you again andyou couldn’t hold yourself back any longer. You leaned in placing agentle kiss on his lips.
A clap of distant thunder rumbled throughthe skies. You couldn’t know that yet but it was just the beginningof a thunderstorm that was going to force you to stay the night atDaichi’s house.
Not that you minded.

Hello!!! Congratulations on your amazing milestone accomplishment!!!! If your celebration is still open, could I get a 🧡. And 🔥- Happiest Of Birthdays. It’s Sirius Black 😬
Oh you beautiful human being! Thank you so much!
I went onto your profile searching for a Masterlist and I was like wait, there isn’t one. I hoped you would be better than me with tags, because I am awful at it. Well guess what, you are so freaking organised, I want to bow down. I went straight for your tags and everything was spot on. In not even a second I found the fic and of course lurked around a bit, because I am curious human being. 
I love the vibe of your blog! I don’t know what that colour is - purple-sih/brown-ish - haven’t got a clue, but it makes me feel homey, like comfortable and warm. I liked hanging around your blog for the fun of it and stalking your posts :D
Your talent! You beautiful, talented human being. Honestly your writing is brilliant and the twist you make. Did not expect it at all. In one minute you get me grinning, the next you shatter my heart. I want to scream at you for doing so, but I want to read more of your fics so I will keep myself in line xD
I hope you will never stop writing, because you are incredibly talented and it would be a waste not to share it with us. Don’t forget, even if just one person likes your fic, you already made one person’s day better and that feeling is just simply beautiful. 
Now to the review. Next time can you give me some heads up? Like hey, don’t forget to get some tissues or something. It was brilliant and all, but like yeah... I’m heartbroken now. I will share my review here too, even though I did in my reblog as well, just so you can see me droolin’.  
The Happiest Of Birthday’s by leahstypewriter
HOW DARE YOU!
I literally came here thinking, oh, i’m going to get some fluff, some love, some witty comments and would be leaving with a huge grin across my face. But nah, you had to come and laugh in my face with that ending, didn’t you?
Honestly? I don’t know how I feel. I mean it was brilliant, but like I just got off the rollercoaster and I am not sure how to react because I am still on unsteady legs.
It started off beautifully. I could honestly feel the love Sirius felt for y/n. The way you write it captured his feelings so well, I just wish to experience that kind of love in the future.
“Well you’re definitely skilled in one.” She breaks down laughing, even going so far as to fall into his hold.
I just loved the little banter, the humours comments. They were 100% Sirius and I was so glad to see him smitten, but stay true to his cheeky self.
“Sirius would’ve been dead already if it had been someone dangerous,” James commented with a grin.
“It was,” Lily said fondly, pinching his cheek in the process. He swatted at the air near her.
“Unhand me woman!” He shouted.
All my appreciation for you for presenting us with this little conversation. I love a little bickering and Lily and James just had it all perfectly. I also have a thing for being called woman, so James just got to me for a mere second before I remembered, oh I’m supposed to love Sirius here. My bad.
“Oh… I will be,” she says before throwing the leftover cake right at James’ face. The cake smacked his forehead before dripping down onto the ground.
I crack up so badly. I can just imagine them not being able to stay serious and this little piece of a moment had me grinning happily. It was sweet, somewhat idillic.
“Then maybe… we could share a star,” Sirius suggests, unsure of what he’s even saying at this point.
I honestly adored their pair, they seemed to be so perfect for each other and both of their loves for the other was so painfully obvious. I was so happy to read how strongly they felt for one another.
But then you came and ruined it. I mean not the fic, because it was beautiful, but you just had to burst my happy bubble. I was feeling so content, I was feeling so giddy and full of love, but what followed had me tear up. I was not read for it, I was not ready for it to be turned up side down.
Don’t get me wrong it was a fantastic piece from beginning to end, but I honestly thought I would come here for a nice little fluff and I ended up with a shattered heart. How dare you?
Sweetheart, it was brilliant and honestly, I am so happy you asked me to read it because it was worth every second. But I am heartbroken right now, so let me go and mend my pained little heart.

@merlinobsessionist you understand me on a spiritual level
[putting the rest of this under a cut because it just ended up being me grumping at length about fandom trends - which, yes, i am well-aware is a silly endeavour in all cases, but sometimes you just gotta have your little grump regardless, you know, for health reasons. X)  and in this particular case the grumping is probably relevant/entertaining only to myself, and you, and one or two other people here, so, tucking it away to spare everyone’s dash :) ]
the other day i was exploring the mostly abandoned wasteland that is the merlin fandom on livejournal (since that’s my original fandom home and obviously i missed out on being involved in that particular niche of lj when merlin was active, so i was feeling nostalgic and kinda curious as to it had looked like) - i stumbled over a merlin fic-finders comm and looked up my boy william just for kicks, and surprisingly, a couple of the old requests sounded like maybe i WAS involved in the merlin fandom on livejournal back then and i just don’t remember it
Tumblr media
i think i wrote this in a past life
Tumblr media
this is an eleven year-old comment in a mostly defunct fandom community but i felt it in my BONES
Tumblr media
oh, my dear commenter from 8 years ago, i WISH  XD
it made me laugh, and then it made me grumpy, because obviously there were very few suggestions offered in response to these asks - the fics just don’t exist, not in any numbers.
and like, the thing is, i don’t particularly care about the shipping side of things for the most part; i always lean towards gen and that’s mostly been it, for me; that’s always been my MO in every fandom i’ve ever participated in, but - look.  if i have to witness (*checks ao3*) 23,830 (twenty four thousand. twenty four THOUSAND!!!!) instances of merlin getting together with arthur hecking pendragon, over and over and over again, in every AU configuration under the sun, then you had better believe i am ready and willing to plead the case of the only person in the merlin-verse who did not think arthur pendragon deserved merlin’s entire life.  
and of course, there’s nothing inherently wrong with arthur and merlin as an item, obviously (i mean, i can name a few things about it that don’t appeal to me personally, but that is not the same thing as a value judgment) and everybody should have fun with their own ships, always - but for me, personally, there is just...enough of that out there.  i have seen Enough.  it’s hard for me to even determine where the rest of the fandom is, under the ever-present spread of merlin/arthur content; a picture of merlin/arthur should literally be next to the dictionary entry for steamroller.
and of course, i knew it would be like this from the beginning, and i know complaining about the ubiquitousness of a particular ship in fandom is utterly silly, in the end, because it’s not like there’s anything wrong with something being ubiquitous - the whole point of fandom is to make what you love, and if that’s what everybody loves, well, hey, that’s just how it is!  that’s what people should be making - the stuff they love!  that’s what fandom is here for!  i only mutter to myself in the bubble of my own blog because the ubiquitousness makes it almost impossible for me to find what *i* love, because i don’t want to read about arthur/merlin in the first place, no matter who else appears in the fic, and also because my fave minor character, while he gets a pretty good amount of fannish screentime for someone who showed up in one episode, also suffers from the curse known as “virtually everything he features in is actually about merlin and arthur getting it on”
like - by the numbers, when you exclude merlin/arthur from will’s character tag, will retains less than 20% of his fics, some of which are already like...you know, he’s dead, or just mentioned, et cetera.  
and his poor ship tag...he and merlin have 136 fics in their tag, and at first you wanna look at that and be like - ‘hey, not bad, pal, that’s p. good for a rarepair!’  but in actuality, less than 20 of those fics are actually about him and merlin.  like...12% of his own ship tag actually belongs to him, and the rest is him being used as a plot device to get arthur and merlin together.
and i am sure that a lot of other side characters probably suffer from this, too, given the general fic distribution in this fandom, though the only person i’ve looked at for comparison purposes is freya, who is a (mostly) one-ep character like will.  she, despite that, doesn’t appear to get hit quite as hard - she seems to keep more of her fic for herself, which is nice (when i exclude merlin/arthur from the freya/merlin search, freya still retains about 65% of her fics, as opposed to will’s sad little 12%).  i’m glad for her, though - she of all people does not need to be losing fic to arthur; she has suffered enough. 
to put things in perspective, though - merlin and uther have more fics in their ship tag that earnestly focus on the tagged....hnhhmgnhn i can’t say it...relationship than merlin and will do - even filtering out every instance of dubcon/noncon.  
(and yes, i did in fact want to die when i had to actually click the merlin/uther tag on ao3 in order to check that factoid, thanks for asking.)
so, that said - i don’t generally read canon-era fic anyway, when i’m actively writing for a fandom, but since the merlin fandom sometimes feels like it consists solely of modern AU’s anyway, all i am trying to say is that it would be nice if i could pick up an AU including a character i enjoy without seeing him constantly reduced to:
merlin’s loser ex
merlin’s abusive ex (w h at)
merlin’s ex who’s kinda sorta tolerable-ish, maybe, if you squint, but just ultimately Not Right for merlin - holding merlin back, or being too overbearing, or too pushy, or Just Not Enough - or being someone who merlin stays with only bc he’s familiar and merlin’s settling for something safe and unrisky and stagnantly unfulfilling
the dude who merlin cheats on to be with arthur
the dude who cheats on merlin, bc the fic needed a reason to break up merlin and will so that white-knight!arthur could swoop in (cue me shouting ‘IN WHAT UNIVERSE DO YOU THINK WILL WOULD EVER - ’)
the dude merlin “makes mistakes with” when things with arthur aren’t going well
the friend-with-benefits who’s apparently chill with a casual arrangement, thus keeping himself conveniently out of the way of the oncoming merlin/arthur train
the friend-with-benefits who’s secretly NOT chill with a casual arrangement and who’s pining for merlin, except we all know that ain’t ever going anywhere because arthur exists, and in the meantime merlin only ever gets together with will to try and forget his problems
the friend-with-no-benefits who’s still pining for merlin (which situation, i might add, would be read completely differently if it were arthur in will’s shoes, because if that were the case then the audience would 100% be rooting for him)
the “best friend” whose only purpose in fic is to provide space for conversations/debriefs about merlin’s relationship/pre-relationship with arthur (like - i’m sorry, but there desperately needs to be some type of bechdel-esque test for will; e.g. do will and merlin have a conversation about something other than arthur pendragon?  if yes, u win, u may pass go, collect 20 dollars, congratulations)
the friend whose dislike of arthur always, ALWAYS ends up being framed as a mistake.  as will’s stubborn unwillingness to give arthur a chance, until at last will sees the light and succumbs to the irresistible beauty of merlin and arthur’s eternal love. -_-  there is vanishingly rare acknowledgement in fic of the fact that in the canon universe, all of the criticisms will makes about merlin and arthur’s relationship are not only accurate, but made in merlin’s best interests (and also, ultimately, proven right, by the end of the show - merlin tanks his whole damn life for a series of empty promises prophesying arthur pendragon’s future potential, and he gets NOTHING for his devotion.  merlin is more alone at the end of the show than he was at the beginning, when his only dream was to be loved and accepted by more than the two people who’d comprised his entire life up until that point.  and he spends at least half a decade in between the show’s hopeful beginning and its miserable end being told that he’s evil by the very person for whom he is expected to sacrifice his future.  
so what, exactly, makes will so wrong to be wary?  who among us wouldn’t be angry if we saw somebody we loved being forced to sacrifice themselves on an unforgiving altar like this?  
i don’t know the answer.  i’m not sure what it is that earns will his spot on the “destined to be shafted for arthur pendragon” list.  i don’t know if it’s an unconscious backlash to will’s refusal to hop on the arthur/merlin train, or if it’s just a superficial understanding/lack of genuine interest in his character, which, in that case, sure, i’ll give people that one, in all fairness; not everyone has spent a year picking his character apart (though i still don’t think it justifies tossing him in there just because the fic needs a random insert who can be positioned as inferior to arthur’s gloriousness).  either way, the end result is that we usually end up seeing a will who has very little in common with his source material, or who needs to ultimately step aside to make way for arthur - arthur, who never displays the same level of care toward merlin in canon that merlin shows toward him, and who actively oppresses merlin’s people for the entire duration of their relationship.  
like...it’s all just fic, obviously, and we can make characters as OOC as we want; have fun; go wild.  but at the same time, it’s impossible for me not to balk at how arthur in some of this fic is just - utterly unrecognizable.  in comparison with fic!will, arthur is the most Solicitous, Gentle, Understanding, Deeply Concerned, Invested-In-Merlin’s-Welfare-and-Inner-Thoughts creature you ever did see, and I’m just over here like - it is not like that!  it is NOT LIKE THAT!  IT HAS LITERALLY NEVER BEEN LIKE THAT.  arthur pendragon in fic sometimes interacts with merlin like - he tilts his head and listens like a therapist and affirms absolutely everything merlin says and tells him ‘gosh, i understand. tell me more. how can i help you’ - he goes about his day thinking about merlin and putting merlin first and i just - i literally have never seen this person before in my life.  who is this man?  who is this unbelievably attentive paragon of caring?  i’ve never met him before.
the entire running problem with merlin and arthur’s friendship in canon is that arthur, while he absolutely does care about merlin, tends to take merlin for granted.  merlin is just another feature of arthur’s landscape, until something dramatic happens and arthur has a little scare and saves merlin’s life, and then things go back to the way they were.  arthur doesn’t See merlin the way he should, not in the ordinary moments.  merlin goes home and spends his evenings thinking about arthur’s life; he ties himself in knots trying to help arthur develop as a person and to keep arthur safe and happy, but arthur just goes home and eats supper with his wife.  arthur does not go home and spend his nights agonizing over how he can improve merlin’s life.  he never once thinks, ‘my purpose on this earth is to serve and support my friend merlin.’  he never feels like he’s supposed to be half of some two-sided coin.  i know people like to give arthur this quality in their fic - and that’s totally fine, of course, it’s fic, have as much fun as you want - but in canon, that is just not something arthur pendragon does.  it’s not who he is shown to be.  
and yet almost every time when i go to explore fandom, i find that the person who does put merlin first in canon is perpetually elbowed aside for this extremely generous interpretation of everyone’s favorite prince.  
and i just...i always try to find the good bits in everything, and i am sometimes willing to overlook a ship i don’t personally enjoy if there’s something else about the piece that i think is great, but there’s only so many times i can read the sentence “merlin had never felt like this with anyone, not even will” in fics where merlin and will are supposed to have been dating or even married/engaged, or “will was merlin’s best friend, but he just didn’t understand” (not like arthur, of course, who merlin literally just met a week ago), or “will was great, but there was only so much of him merlin could stand in one sitting/will was great, but he was best enjoyed in small doses.”  there’s only so many times i can read a hundred different variations of that before i start to get real grumpy.  and that’s not even touching the fics where will’s portrayed less favorably than that, even.  
so, you know.  i feel grumbly about it sometimes, how this particular character is trapped in a perpetual net of always being less-than, when one of the nicest parts of fandom for me is that every character/ship can have an infinitude of possibilities, even the ones i personally think are unbelievably bizarre (which category merlin and will do not even fall into, like - it’s not an incredible leap.  merlin/mordred is a leap, okay; mordred is like seventeen years old!  leon/morgana is a leap - how on earth did that become so popular??? - but will and merlin?  that’s not a leap.)
what is it about will that makes him so tempting to trample over?  will’s only sin in canon was to look at arthur pendragon and pronounce himself utterly unimpressed.  his only crime was to tell merlin ‘this dude isn’t good for you,’ about which fact he was CORRECT, by the way - he is the first person who ever chooses to care about merlin, the first person merlin ever chooses to trust, the first friend who loves real!merlin without needing to be coaxed and convinced and taught that it’s okay.  he is the only one who ever tells merlin ‘you deserve better than this mess,’ the only one for whom merlin has always been priority number one and in whose eyes arthur isn’t even on the map.  merlin’s friendship with will (and lancelot, afterwards) is the healthiest one merlin ever gets to experience, and i wish more fannish material acknowledged it as such, as opposed to using will to set up merlin and arthur’s epic romance.  
all of this, i suppose, is just a very long way of saying that now that i am no longer avoiding spoilers and have actually started testing the waters of the wider fandom, i have come to the obstinate, utterly inflexible conclusion that will deserves his own collection of happy endings, and i don’t care if i have to write them myself.  i’ve already got the gen angle covered.  and even though i’ve never written ship!fic in my life, the fact of the matter is that spite can be a hell of a motivator, and i will bite the bullet and learn how to do it if i have to.  if people can really be out here tagging their merlin/uther fics as “schmoop” (YES. REALLY.) then by GOD, i swear, there are no excuses - this fandom can accommodate literally anything; there’s no reason it can’t accommodate stories where will wins.  let this kid have his good ending.  arthur pendragon can fall in love with merlin 23,830 times despite his and merlin’s ship flying in the face of canon, and that means will deserves his own tiny handful of stories to be actually about him, without his and merlin’s relationship being used solely as a stepping stone on the way to merlin and arthur’s 23,831st triumph.
i am just saying - if uther pendragon can fall in love with merlin and have it tagged as ‘fluff,’ then for the love of all that is good, we can give will his moment.  let will enjoy the respect he should have earned from us when he died saving both merlin and arthur’s lives.  let will be a person in his own right, instead of a plot device sacrificed to the (in)glorious altar of merthur.  let will have an inner life of his own.  let will have a best friend who doesn’t treat him like an accessory to The Greatest Love Story Ever Told.  let will himself live out The Greatest Love Story Ever Told, for once.  let will get his guy.  i may tend to focus on friendship in my own work, but there are a lot of universes out there, and when it comes to someone who has always been so alone, and so singularly focused on merlin’s wellbeing, i’m not entirely sure if friendship even feels anything different to “in love” for will at all, in at least some of these places.
let will have his happy tags.  he’s been on his own for so much of his life - let him have his simple ‘friendship’, his ‘platonic love,’ his ‘found family.’  let him have his lovestruck ‘pining,’ ‘friends-to-lovers,’ ‘angst with a happy ending,’ too, and let him keep those tags for himself.  let characters who aren’t arthur pendragon have their love stories.
i may not care much for shipping, and i would rather read gen any day of the week, but let me tell you right now, i would rather write will and merlin settling down in a haze of domestic bliss 23,830 times before i would ever want to watch merlin ditch him yet again for a dude who never matched merlin’s level of caring and investment in the canon ‘verse.
#the once and future slowburn#no kings no masters#fandom#thank you for coming to the extended version of my ted talk#ultimately i know it's silly to be so invested#in something this small#and i constantly struggle with feeling...bizarrely self-conscious about like - even writing things like this because#it's so inconsequential and then i feel silly for being so interested#and using so many words for such a little thing#you know like when you're young and you get embarrassed about being so passionate about some niche interest#i feel like someone is looking at me and being like 'BOY THAT GIRL IS STUPID'#(why you ask???)#(i don't know; it's ridiculous!)#but then there's like another voice in my head yelling 'THAT IS LITERALLY WHAT FANDOM IS FOR'#'fanatic domain'#you're SUPPOSED to be fanatically obsessed about something; that is literally the point#people devote whole blogs to their tiny niche interests and their favorite pairings and they post incessantly about one thing#and i never think that's weird#that's just fandom#so i just have to like - chill out about myself lol#i am allowed to make innumerable posts about something only i care about#and i am allowed to be as passionate about tiny niche things as i want#that is literally the purpose of fandom and i just have to keep reminding myself of that#i have no trouble remembering it when it comes to other people's interests#but i always get self-conscious about my own#ANYWAY I'M WORKING ON IT#but in the meantime i'm having fun#which is the entire point of being a fan so#all is well#:D

Bella Is Not Impressed: Part Two
Previous, Next
“And that’s how I ended up saving a litter of stray kittens from a Southern Smooth snake”
Bella rolled her eyes as the latest of Lila’s tall tales reached her ears from where she was sitting surrounded by her faithful listeners. 
“That’s bull. Southern Smooth snakes are in southern France. It’s literally in their name.”
“I know I’ve already said it a lot,” Marinette started from her seat across the table, “but I’m so glad there’s someone else here who realizes that Lila is lying.” 
Bella shrugged, “Honestly Mari, um, full offence to Alya and the others, but it’s not even that hard to tell she’s lying.” 
Marinette sagged a little and Bella instantly felt a pang of guilt. She hadn’t meant to make her only friend in the country sad. But she was right, the things Lila tried to sell as the One and Only Truth were quite frankly ridiculous and Bella couldn’t believe anyone bought it. 
“I know,” Marinette grumbled in frustration, “no one will notice the glaring holes in her stories and I can’t even get Alya to fact check any of them.” 
Bella was patting Marinette’s arm when Adrien sat down at their table. “Hey, I heard you guys talking about Lila.”
Bella didn’t miss the way Marinette heaved a sigh and scooted away from her crush. Which was weird considering how hyped she’d been at the idea of sitting together in class. Bella also didn’t miss the mumbled “I didn’t tell her.” aimed towards Adrien. 
“You mean the Liar?” Bella asked bluntly, noting with interest the way Adrien flinched. 
“You haven’t told anyone about her lies, have you?” 
Bella shrugged and folded her arms, “I haven’t seen any reason to yet, and quite honestly I have a bet going with my uncle about how long it’ll take before her Faithful Listeners catch on a hole.” 
Adrien but his utensils down, frowning slightly. “You shouldn’t tell anyone about her lies.” 
Bella raised her eyebrows. “No one, not even if I have a good reason to?” 
Adrien shook his head. “If you tell on her there’s a risk she’d be Akumatized, and no one wants that.”
Marinette deflated more and Bella scowled. “No. If I have a good reason to tell on her, be it that her lie is spreading actually harmful information or that her lie is causing someone to feel bad enough to be Akumatized, then I will.” 
Adrien started to argue but Bella cut him off. “From what I’ve seen of Paris, everyone is at risk of becoming an Akuma. Even those of us right here at this table. I will not, enable anyone to be a manipulative bully just on the off chance that they’ll be forced to show their true colors.”
Bella glared at Adrien, daring him to argue. He didn’t. But he did huff and leave the table. Marinette lightly kicked Bella’s leg under the table, pointing to the other side of the room when she had Bella’s attention. Apparently the group had heard at least part of what Bella had said and were staring at them. Bella couldn’t quite read Lila’s expression,  but everyone else’s was clear. They were all confused as to who the manipulative bully Bella mentioned was. 
Bella sighed and turned away. “Just ignore them. If they want to know they’ll have to tear themselves away from their precious darling and ask.” 
Marinette and Bella finished their lunch in silence, keenly aware of the rest of the class throwing puzzled looks their way. Marinette kept Bella in the lunchroom for a minute after the bell rang and everyone had filtered back to class.
“Can I talk to you after school?” 
Bella agreed, wondering what Marinette wanted to talk about. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~
After school let out Bella waited for Marinette by the gate. She knew that Marinette’s bakery wasn’t that far from school and the two of them had agreed to talk there during a lull in class. Bella still didn’t really know what Marinette wanted to talk about, but the way she twisted her hands and wouldn’t look Bella in the face made her worried. 
She greeted Marinette’s parents when they got to the bakery and happily munched on the pastry Mr. Dupain had given her on the way up to Marinette’s room. 
Marinette sat in her desk chair, motioning for Bella to sit on the bed. Bella toed her shoes off and sat cross-legged on the bed.
“So, what did you want to talk to me about?” 
Marinette chewed her lip, obviously finding it hard to start. Bella knew what that was like. 
“Does it have to do with what we were talking about at lunch?” 
Marinette nodded and Bella rolled her head back, thinking about which part of their conversation could have sparked this. 
“What’s the biggest word in your head right now?” 
Marinette brought her knees up and wrapped her arms around them. “Butterfly.” 
Bella felt a knot start twisting itself into her stomach. That word and Marinette’s body language were Not Good together. She started to ask another question, but it seemed that was all Marinette needed to get started. 
“I was almost Akumatized. In the bathroom, Lila’s first day back at school.” 
That knot moved up to Bella’s heart and started burning. She had to remind herself to calm down before she got angry enough to attract a butterfly of her own. 
“I knew she was lying, and she threatened me. Said she would take away all my friends.” 
Bella flexed her hands, biting her lip to keep herself from pointing out that Lila had pretty much already accomplished that. 
“Does Adrien know about that part?” Bella struggled to keep her voice even.
Marinette shook her head, “I couldn’t tell him,” she whispered. “Because Lila threatened to take him away from me too. He made me promise not to expose her. Said it wouldn’t be a good example and it was okay as long as we knew and she wasn’t hurting anyone. He said exposing her wouldn’t make her a better person.” 
Bella sucked in a breath. “Mari, I hate to say this cause I know how much you care about Adrien, but that is a steaming pile of bs. It isn’t your job to make sure Lila becomes a better person and all you’re doing by not calling her out is telling her that it’s okay to walk all over you.” 
Marinette curled up tighter, tears welling up in her eyes. “But what about the chance she’ll get Akumatized?” 
Bella leapt off the bed and went to pull her over to the bed where Bella gently gathered Marinette into her arms, rubbing soothing circles on her back. “Just like I said at lunch, allowing and enabling someone to manipulate their way into ruining someone’s life, your life, is in no way excused by the possibility of Lila being Akumatized.” 
Marinette nodded, burying her face in Bella’s neck to hide her tears. Bella rocked them back and forth, rubbing Marinette’s back and humming her favorite tune. Some time passed before either of them spoke again, content to simply rock back and forth. 
“Mari?” Marinette hummed, tickling Bella’s neck. “Mari have you told your parents?” Marinette stiffened and a long moment passed before she shook her head. Bella rushed to assure that it was okay. They sat again for a long while, Bella managing to get Marinette’s promise that she’d tell her parents about Lila and her threats before the week ended. Bella almost called her parents and tell them she’d be having an impromptu sleepover, but Marinette had turned down the offer. 
“Thanks, but I already feel much better. And I have your number if things get bad again.” 
So Bella had instead called her parents to pick her up from the bakery, hanging out with Marinette and her parents until they arrived. On the way home Bella talked to her dad about the best way to collect evidence against a bully. That got her some worried looks, but she was quick to assure them the bully wasn’t hers. 
When they were home and Bella was up in her room, she texted Ley-Ley. In part to vent and part to see what his demonic take on the situation would be.
Bella: Heyyyyyyyyy are you up?
Ley-Ley: Am now, what’s up?
Bella: I need to yell and also I need your demonic opinion.
Ley-Ley: Wait hang on, let me get angel in on this.
Ley-Ley: Okay, yell away
Bella: Okay SO. You remember sausage girl? Yeah she’s a huge liar. Like, first day at school she claimed to know you before you’d gotten popular and you said you’d never met her, plus you’ve been popular since we were tiny babs. 
Bella: So obviously she was lying but I figured, “what the hell, it’s not like that kinda lie would hurt anyone here.” so I left her alone.
Ley-Ley: Uh oh. This is looking bad already
Bella: But then I found out today that my friend Mari has not only been threatened by sausage girl, she was nearly Akumatized because of her. 
Bella: And to top it off, Mari’s crush knows that sausage girl is lying, but doesn’t know that she threatened Mari, and made Mari promise not to expose Liela because “doing so wouldn’t make her a better person.” 
Ley-Ley: First of all, bullshit. Second of all, that’s not your friend’s job? If sausage girl is a bad person then she is gonna have to be the driving force behind being a better person. 
Bella: That’s what I said! And to make matters worse, the teachers at school are all whipped into favoring the bullies. Except Mrs. Mandeliev, but unfortunately we aren’t in her class.
Ley-Ley: WHAT?!? The teachers are supposed to help the kids being bullied, not the other way around!
Bella: I know! What makes this ironic is the teacher told me outright to report if I saw anyone getting bullied. And then she turns around and tells the bullied kid to “be the better person” and keep letting the bully (Chloe) walk all over them. 
Ley-Ley: Angel’s saying we should go to Paris and knock some sense into your school. 
Bella: XD Please
Bella: In all seriousness though, it would be nice if you were here.
Bella:
They know my uncle is one of the most popular gardening blogs in London, but I never told them you’re my uncle and they all heard the story of how Liela met the famous A.J. Crowley before he became a popular blog so having you show up and then deny ever meeting her would also be a good start in tearing her web apart
Ley-Ley: Bella my sweet niece, I would be happy to help you defend your friend. Aziraphale and I will be in Paris next week.

Hey! I recently found your blog, just wanna say your writing is giving me life! I saw requests are open and I just have to ask... how do you think Lysander, Hyun, and Castiel act when they’re high? Like after smoking weed lolololol If you don’t want to write this one I understand but if you do thanks in advance!
I’m absolutely dying right now lmaooo I’ve never even thought of this before this is going to be fun (definitely let me know if you guys wanna know the story of the two times I got a little too high for my own good lmaooooo)
Warning: marijuana is mentioned heavily in this, I will have it tagged so you can have it blocked but just in case I’m letting you know ahead of time!
Lysander
Ohhh man okay so the question is, how is Lysander getting high in the first place? I definitely don’t see him willingly being like “Oh yes, pass the blunt please.” Don’t see him as a smoker at all. Maybe an edible that he eats unknowingly? Let’s say someone brought edibles to a small get together, and everyone knows except for him because he shows up just a bit late and everyone forgets to mention it to him lol. I’m gonna just go ahead and say it was a cookie edible. He eats some of it, but thinks it tastes really weird so he only eats about half before throwing the other half away (what a WASTE Lysander). He doesn’t mean to be rude about it but he’s not going to eat something if he doesn’t like it lol. Nothing against the person that made it, it could just be him personally considering everyone else seems to be enjoying it.
Fast forward about an hour. Lysander is quite a tall dude and if I remember correctly, he’s on the heavier side when it comes to all the boys. So you really gotta give it a good hour or so to kick in for him. He’s sitting down enjoying himself, talking and laughing. Gosh, everyone is so funny tonight? He’s really having a better time than usual. You’re also there with everyone. The topic is: bad jokes. You’re up next, and you crack a really corny one. “What do you call a row of rabbits hopping away?”
“What?”
“A receding hare line!”
And Lysander literally just can NOT stop laughing. And he’s slowly becoming aware of the fact that something isn’t right but right now all he can do is laugh and laugh and laugh. People are actually getting concerned because he’s laughing so loudly and he rarely ever does that? And then someone realizes oh shit you ate a cookie didn’t you lololol Honestly you might have to watch him for the night because if you aren’t careful he might start freaking out because he doesn’t know what’s happening so PLEASE explain it to him. “Lysander you’re going to be okay, you just accidentally ate an edible but it’s fine. You didn’t eat the whole thing and I’m here for you if you need me, okay?” And he’s just like oh god someone help me. He’s better off just lying down for the rest of the night. Give him some water, some nice tunes to listen to through a pair of ear buds and he’ll be fine. You’ll occasionally glance over to see him giggling randomly throughout the night and trying but failing to sing on key to the songs playing Ends up falling asleep lmaoooo
Hyun
Hyun, Hyun, hyun…. poooooor poor Hyun xD He is also the type of person to not willingly smoke something. He’ll have a few drinks here and there, but smoking? No thanks. So his situation is the exact same as Lysander’s, accidentally eating an edible. He didn't show up late and heard the announcement, but he was sure they said the BROWNIES were edibles, not the cookies. So, he takes one, eats it. He also thinks it tastes kind of weird. Not bad, just a really peculiar flavor. BUT Hyun doesn’t want to be rude to whoever made the cookie so he eats the entire thing… the entire thing…. oh god.
I feel like while Hyun is tall, he’s also a bit smaller in weight so the cookie probably only takes about 45 minutes to take effect. He’s standing with a group of his friends, his eyes focus on you as you talk. You’re telling everyone a story from back when you were a teen and rabbits got loose within the school. He’s listening, but then he realizes: what are you talking about?? Why does everything coming out of your mouth make absolutely no sense? And also why can’t he stop squinting so much? Also why can’t HE FEEL HIS JAW?
Hyun is definitely the one you’ll have to keep an active eye on throughout the night because unlike Lysander, this boy will actually start to freak out. He can’t focus on anything clearly, he feels like everything is moving and slow motion and if he doesn’t sit down right now he’s going to pass out lmao. Give him some water and just sit with him for a bit. Talk to him to make sure he knows he’s not in any danger, and just let him cuddle you until he calms down a bit. He’ll be okay, the poor baby has just never experienced anything like that in his life hahaha. After that he’s just super chill and you’d almost think he’s tired but nah he’s just chillin! Leave him be, he’ll be okay. Definitely gets really bad cotton mouth though so make sure to give him lots of water, and keep it in a closed bottle or else he’ll just keep spilling it everywhere.
Castiel
Okay so Castiel is probably the most likely out of the three to smoke on his own accord. But even then I feel like he’d have to really be in the mood for something like that, he doesn’t just get high on a regular basis or anything. Especially not around a bunch of people so this get together is definitely something small with a close knit group of friends. Maybe after a study session with the gang, someone offers it up and he’s like ehhh why not? He doesn’t get himself insanely high like the other two because he actually knows what he’s doing and how to pace himself, unlike the other two who had no clue what was happening lol. More of a blunt guy than an edible so this works out a little better too. But if he has an option he’d definitely prefer a dab pen, so he can just hit it once or twice and give himself a nice relaxed high. He knows when he’s getting a little buzzed too because he starts to feel lighter. You don’t need to watch him because he’s got himself covered lol. He’s a lot more friendly when he’s high too! Not super nice like Hyun or anything, but he jokes around more, laughs a bit more at jokes, and if you keep eye contact with him for too long he’ll burst out in laughter like “Pffffft…. stop staring at me creep.” And give you his little side smirk.
Oh yeah you thought I forgot about one of the main side effects? The boy has MAD munchies xD like, he’s just guzzling an entire bag of chips, or eating some random left over Chinese food he found in the fridge, not even bothering to warm it up. Any food item in his line of sight is getting consumed. He’s that high person that makes weird ass combinations too, like pickles on top of pizza, or peanut butter and potato chips. If he’s at home while high he might even make himself a full ass three course meal, not even caring about whether or not any of this is healthy for him. He refuses to go out and get fast food though because last time he did that he ended up spending 35 dollar son McDonalds and the reality didn’t even hit him until the next day. He’s not broke but he’s not rich either lmao.
