Intimacy Gaps
ok so I know I usually rant about the lack of connective tissue in S5 in bringing chenford together. I recently realized it’s because this season’s leapfrog approach to Chenford deprives us of an emotional intimacy that is the bedrock of a solid otp and the reason I started watching the rookie to begin with.
like — domestic chenford, transferring, talk of babies, ADORBS.
HOWEVER.
Building intimacy in a partnership requires vulnerability. For some reason, the show has chosen to strip out those small moments in favor of hitting the larger relationship beats, which has managed to flatten chenford for me.
For example — take the Isabel arc. We see Tim struggle with the angst of an addicted wife, we see Lucy confront him about it, yell at him about it. We see their mutual concern for one another; see him end things with his wife, partly due to Lucy’s influence. <chef’s kiss> in building emotional depth and angst.
Compare that to the Ashley/Chris storylines. We get a few snarky quips from both Tim and Lucy about dating other people. We never have a confessional scene where Lucy admits her jealousy or hurt. We don’t have Angela ribbing Tim over Chris, especially after that disastrous double date. We don’t have either of them end their relationships because their feelings for each other get the better of them; rather, they continue to be dragged along until outside circumstances force a change. Ashley dumps Tim for some batshit reason the writers pulled out of a hat, robbing him of agency or decision, and then Tim essentially robs Lucy of agency or decision by telling Lucy to break up with Chris. The result is a relationship that’s sort of developed by proxy rather than internal decisions driven by the characters, which is literally How Not to Write Characters 101.
On top of that, we never get insights from other characters the way we used to from Jackson (ie, Angela telling Lucy that Ashley’s a safe choice for example), and because of that, SO MUCH emotional intimacy is left on the table.
I guess my larger point is that we’re going through the motions of establishing an OTP on screen without earning it through the actual moments the show would have once upon a time written, and that just bums me out.
The physical intimacy is great and I’m glad we’re progressing. Just wish it was punctuated by that emotional depth that drew me into the rookie those first few seasons.

what made you start shipping drarry
I guess it depends on what degree of shipping them we're talking about lol.
The first time I thought about them was when I read OOTP. We got the Sorting Hat telling the school they needed to unite, and then we got Umbridge, who could have been a mass unifying factor of the entire school. Harry's dealing with the majority of the population not believing that Voldemort's back, but guess who does believe Harry because he knows Voldemort is back? Draco, for one.
What I was hoping would follow through on that setup obviously didn't come to pass. The point is, I remember thinking, oh, what if they were friends by the end of the book? And then I remember thinking oh 👀 what if they were boyfriends???
But obviously that didn't happen either, lmao
As for the degree of shipping where I sought drarry fics out over any other pairing was after reading Running on Air. That one changed my brain chemistry. I finished reading it around bedtime (10-11pm) and was awake until dawn (4-5am at the time) rotating it around in my head.
As for OTP status, while planning/writing Canon in Draconis Major. When I first started thinking about doing the series (June 2021ish; I wrote the first fic in the series across Nov/Dec 2021), it was actually supposed to be epilogue compliant! I was going to build up the Draco/Astoria and everything. And then I realized that the straight Draco in my head (who appears in the ~1M word series I wrote before CDM) was committing identify fraud on his character. Draco, straight? No way lmao.
Also, narratively speaking? Draco and Harry go through such similar journeys at times that it just makes sense that marrying CDM to canon results in marriage of the POV characters - figuratively at first, with them coming together, and then, well, literally. lol
Everything after that has just been confirmation bias. My ao3 bookmarks ought to prove that.

OTP ASKS GAME | T.S x OC
A/N: Absolutely no one asked for this, but you can't judge a girl for loving her OC, right? HERE is the template of the questions and yes, I'm encouraging my lovely mutuals to take a look at them because they really make you think deeper into your characters and I actually had fun with it! Also, the numbers are out of order because I only answered 31 out of 40, I thought it'd be better to keep the original order
Tumblr media
1. Who most initiates PDA? Neither of them are really into PDA but before the war Tommy did it most, he enjoyed pressing a small kiss in Eleanor's temple when no one was watching just to get a shy/scolding look from her.
After the war though, Ellie always has a hand on his back or shoulder, it's grounding to him and reassuring to her.
2. Any sleep habits either had to get used to? Remember that scene in season 1 in which he is sleeping with his boots on, feet off the bed and an opium pipe in hand? That would've pissed her off to catastrophic levels because →
• The bed is clean and Tommy's boots are dirty
• He's ruining his already damaged back
• Where the hell is the blanket?
• She just knows he didn't brush his teeth, had water or took a wee
The thing is, Eleanor has an established routine while Tom contents himself with just laying down and if he gets any sleep, he's lucky. Once they adapted themselves he sleeps a little bit better because he sort of conditioned his brain into getting sleepy doing the "routine"
3. Hot and Steamy or Soft and Tender? Yes. Just kidding, it depends on their mood, Tommy enjoys sex in general and the only "demand" Ellie has is to be the closest as possible, which is possible at any pace.
4. How did they first meet? Tommy tried to steal some things for baby Finn at a grocery store and got caught. Eleanor happened to be there and noticed the owner of the store would beat the shit out of him, she didn't think it was fair and paid for the groceries. Out of gratitude, he walked her home afterwards.
5. What is their love language? Touch takes the first place, they don't say I love you often or consider themselves good at verbalizing feelings but if you pay close attention you'll notice they're always touching each other, be it touching feet under a table, resting a hand on the other's leg or touching elbows when standing together.
6. When did they realize they loved each other? They weren't officially together yet. For her, when she realized how utterly heartbroken she was thinking he was responsible for the robbery at her mother's shop (which he wasn't by the way), in her mind he had betrayed her, becoming exactly who her mother said he was and yet, she kept wishing he didn't have because she didn't want to stay away from him.
For him, when they went to a communist meeting and she enthusiastically talked to everyone, he felt a mix of joy for seeing her happy, with jealousy because she wasn't giving him attention.
7. Who is more sentimental? Eleanor. She keeps many of Theo's (her baby brother), Finn's and Tommy's old belongings, especially things like their first ties, hats or pocket watches.
Tommy is way too attached to "the past is in the past" to collect objects like that, however after her death in 1929, he kept all her discos, books and jewelry for their daughters to inherit, her clothes were only donated because he knew it's what she'd have wanted. The only exception is the gold bracelet she never took off, that is his, in his silly little head it still smells like her (it doesn't).
8. What’s one way their personalities complement one another? Besides being two introverts, they're very organized, determined and ambitious people (p.s - however, Tommy's ambition comes from trauma, Eleanor's doesn't, so she knew when to stop, he didn't ).
9. How are their personalities different? Tommy is realistic and spiritual (in his own ways lol) while Ellie is pessimistic and skeptical.
10. What are some non-sexual activities they do together? Much like cats, they're more than able to coexist in the same room minding their own business, but some things they enjoy doing actually together is having lunch/dinner or napping on the other's lap while they read a book.
11. Which member is more physically affectionate? Tommy initiates it more often at the privacy of home, doesn't necessarily mean he is more affectionate because touch is how they both show affection, but at home, he's the one to start it.
12. Which member is more verbally affectionate? Eleanor, mainly in a teasing way, she'll whistle, call him handsome or stud, anything that'll get him blushing and fussy.
13. Which member steals/borrows the other one's clothing? Eleanor because obviously Tommy wouldn't steal her dresses (perhaps her coats on some modern!AU). She's personally fond of rummaging his wardrobe for socks, shirts, sweaters and scarves.
14. Are they an introverted couple or an extroverted one—AKA would they prefer to go out to a party or event together or would they rather stay in? 100% introverted, especially after the war, if an event isn't related to the company or isn't a family occasion they're probably not going.
15. Who is more likely to make an impulsive decision and who is the voice of reason? Surprisingly, Tommy is way more impulsive, his arrogance pushes him into reckless decisions and Eleanor has to talk him out of it.
For example, in 1924 she wanted to deal with the Italians situation by firing Lizzie, then having John apologizing, or not killing Vincent Changretta after he made her get shot in an attempt to kill Tommy. He didn't listen and we know how it ended.
16. Who stays up way too late and who tries to drag them to bed? Tommy and his crazy sleeping schedule get on her nerves, sometimes she doesn't even say anything, she just shows up in his office and he knows, he follows her to bed without questioning.
17. Who fell in love first? Tommy did and oh, poor boy, it took a while to woo her.
18. What song fits them perfectly? Love me tender's cover by Pato Fu, the lyrics aren't very complex but are sweet, it's personally the song I picture for them if Ellie was a real character.
19. How do they deal with being away from each other for a long time? Fun fact: There's a bell in between his and her office because they're on different floors. When they're both home it rings from two in two hours, it was meant to be used when they have important things to say, but they actually use it whenever they want to see the other.
To be true, the only time they spent a long time away from each other was during the war. However, if they were to be apart, they'd call each other every day and unavoidably become more verbally affectionate, he'd spend some time thinking about her especially in the mornings and before sleeping, while she'd use his shirts as a pillowcase like a fool in love.
20. Who holds a grudge the longest? Oh woah, we're talking about two very proud people, but I'd say Eleanor, it's very toxic of her to give the silent treatment but she just can't avoid it. And at first, Tommy in his endless pride and anger swears he won't give in, he eventually does because he can't sleep well without their feet touching or focus on his paperwork when he's so tempted to ring the bell to her office.
27. What random everyday object/activity makes them think of each other? Not surprisingly, Ellie thinks of Tommy when she sees cigarette cases or red ties, she thinks they fit him well.
Now, Tommy is a certified coffee maker™ here, she always asks him to make some so its scent makes him think of her.
28. Do they get along with each other’s friends and family? I won't try to defend Eleanor, she had fights with each Shelby member at some point because even if Tommy is wrong, she tends to side with him, she's the typical "no one can be mean to my husband but me" wife.
She fiercely believes he infantilizes people, in 1919 for example, she didn't understand why he was so worried about Ada, she believed her sister-in-law was a grown woman and if she wanted to risk her life sneaking around with a communist racketeer, that was her choice. All she worried about was Karl and her and Ada had a big fight when she threatened to take the baby when he was born.
In 1924 she fought John for being dumb and threatening the Changrettas, and in 1926 she fought everyone who thought it was a good idea to push a prostitute into Finn.
Long short answer: Eleanor gets along with everyone, she's able to remain cordial, but she absolutely will pick up a fight if someone crosses hers, Finn's or Tommy's way, be it a Shelby or not.
Now, Eleanor's family is a complicated subject, her mother Ruth was never the same after her husband's death and Ellie doesn't remember much of her dad. Ruth never liked Tommy because he's a gangster, bad rumors always surrounded him and she simply doesn't understand what her daughter sees in a *Campbell's voice* murdering, cutthroat, mongrel gangster.
Theodore, the baby brother, sort of admires Tommy, if his sister loves him so much he can't be that bad, right?
29. What is their sex life like? Considering they were together for seventeen years, it's pretty well rounded. Tommy isn't that much of a whore in this AU, he had 5 or 6 people including Ellie and a few prostitutes, while she only had 3, the boy she lost her virginity to, Tommy and the woman she cheated with.
Out of the seven days of the week, I'd say they're doing it 3 or 4 times, mostly uneventful but not in a bad way, more like an intimate one.
They're both switches, varying between subs and soft doms at most, sometimes they try some different things such as bondage or unusual positions, but usually they stick to cowgirl/missionary and blindfold the other, they're actually fairly vanilla.
30. What is their favorite place to kiss the other? (Cheek, hand, closed eyelid, neck, nose, etc.) Tommy is very fond of her neck, it's where her scent lingers the most and he loves watching her trying not to laugh from the ticklish feeling.
Now, Ellie is a simple woman, she likes his lips, his wrists or the shaven sides of his head are a good call too but it doesn't come close to that cute little pout.
31. What’s the relationship like? Smooth? Rocky?I'd say something between both, the business makes them argue a lot, in 1922 for example, she got really mad at him for leaving the hospital to see Alfie without any warnings, but they usually make peace soon.
33. Who has the most nightmares and how do they deal with them? Tommy never stopped having nightmares about the tunnels and through his life he got other subjects to have nightmares about, such as John's death, his daughter being kidnapped, even his mum comes to haunt him sometimes.
Eleanor is a heavy sleeper but since they sleep touching each other, she wakes up when he moves abruptly. Unfortunately there was no solution for his PTSD, love can't heal him, so the best she does is soothing him, assuring he's safe and the shovels aren't real, bringing him a glass of water or tea and keeping him company until he sleeps again.
34. Do they give each other nicknames? I mean…Tommy and Ellie are nicknames, other than that they use love or darling, but it's not often.
Tommy is rather fond of being called darling though, it gets him all fussy especially if used in front of the family.
37. What do they like the least about each other? Eleanor's skepticism towards any mystical belief of Tommy was subject of argument more than once. She doesn't believe in curses, spirits, luck, fortune telling or anything alike, she doesn't know how a man smart as him can believe in what she deems as parlor tricks and he doesn't understand how she can simply not see what's right there
38. What was their most memorable date? Probably the one in which they had their first kiss, a small birthday party of a friend they didn't even consider a date, but ended up being special for both of them.
39. What other couple would your otp get along with the best? Well, Tommy managed to turn the whole family against him at some point, but Polly x Aberama and John x Esme in 1919
40. Who makes the other smile with almost no effort at all? Surprisingly or not, Tommy, he can make Ellie smile by simply having a glass of water, eating a healthy meal or looking particularly cute while resting in the sun.

If you don't mind, 1/2: OTP? or OT3?
Ask game prompt
OTP:
In any fandom overall I think I have to say bakudeku bnha. Which I think might make some ppl grimace a bit but that is sort of why it’s passive ride or die ship for me despite the fact I’m not into bnha at all anymore JUSNDJDJD. Bc esp when I was in the fandom I feel u had to be more on the defensive abt its #mild controversy & having to rlly believe in the meta of the ship to argue abt it when I was 16 just has it in my brain permanently. I loved those guys
In terms of genshin (cont)
idk I just don’t do a lot of strong shipping usually. My genshin ride or die relationship is hat radish (wanderer & Nahida) but that’s platonic. Ummm. I do believe very strongly in zhongven. I think havikaveh is The One True Pairing Objectively & I’m not even like super focused on them I just look at them and I’m like yeah they are gay. What am I supposed to do. Not think it’s good?!?! I honestly think if I didn’t attach to Nahida so much & at the same time of Kaveh’s release there could’ve been an alternate timeline where I hyperfixated on Havikaveh instead of hat radish
OT3:
IM NOT SURE it’s a bit harder since I don’t have rlly strong shipping opinions. I guess the first that comes to mind is zhongxiaoven but it’s less of just an ot3 and more of a complicated love triangle that goes in a circle as a form of hilarious character study
Zhongven are divorced but date for fun. They sometimes drag Xiao into it who sits between them shaking like a chihuahua. Xiao wants Zhongli to use him as a weapon to the point it’s a very unbalanced sort of devoted infatuation & Zhongli enjoys his presence but is trying to be responsible about the power dynamic. Xiao is also infatuated with Venti and tries offering Venti use him as a weapon but Venti (god of freedom) is like ummmm. Please don’t…? And is trying to have a stable relationship but also Xiao needs a lot of stability and Venti has commitment issues so it’s sort of just Complicated in a fun way. Etc

A Day In May
Year of the OTP May prompts: sunshine, pet acquisition, “who are you”?
Set in the revival, wc: 1,057, more on the fluffy side
tagging @today-in-fic
A regular day in May, but things are changing for Mulder and Scully.
The late May sun is relentless on the skin of his neck, right where his shirt ends and his hair no longer reaches. Both he and Scully got haircuts before they came here. After all, this has been a long time coming. They’re waiting for their turn, Mulder with his hand on his neck, trying to prevent the inevitable sunburn. He used sunscreen – or rather Scully used it on him. How could he say no when she offered to apply it for him? The ghost of her small, but strong hands and nimble fingers is still dancing over his skin.
Another couple leaves, holding their official papers, looking joyful. They pass them and that’s when he catches Scully smiling. It’s one of his favorites. All of her smiles are his favorite, of course. But this one holds a special place in his heart. It’s the one she wears when her thoughts and seemingly all her troubles are miles away. It’s an absent-minded smile that only pops up every once in a while. Lately, he’s seen it more often. He cherishes each one of them, never knowing when he’ll get to see it again. Except things will change now. Isn’t that why they’re standing here? He glances over at Scully. As much as he doesn’t want to disturb her moment of happiness, he needs to make sure.
“Hey, Scully?”
“Hm?”
“Is this really what you want?” She turns to him, her eyes wide.
“Have you changed your mind?” she asks.
“No,” he says hastily. “I haven’t, I just- you never wanted… I mean. This is… it’s a big deal for us.” It's been 25 years and now...
“Mulder,” she says softly, taking his hand into hers. He realizes how sweaty his hand is. Hers is, too. It’s either nervousness or the early bout of summer.
“I want this. I asked you, remember?” He nods, slowly. Of course, he remembers. The first time he asked her to marry him was shortly after they went on the run. She said no. The same thing happened after they got their house. Another firm no. He asked her again after their vacation, their last attempt to ditch the darkness that was threatening to swallow them whole. When she said no that time he was almost relieved. And that was the beginning of the end. Or, as he likes to think of it now: the interlude. Because here they are, about to make it official. Well, sort of.
They’re next in line, finally. His skin is scorching and he knows that Scully will have to apply aloe vera later tonight. At least there’s a silver lining to his pain.
“Who are you?” The man behind the desk adjusts his glasses and his base cap. It reads ‘what a good boy’ and Mulder averts his eyes, looking everywhere but at the hat.
“Mulder and Scully,” Scully says, taking charge. “We have an appointment.”
“Do you?” The man asks lowering his head and going through his list. Several names are already crossed out. Panic grips Mulder’s stomach. What if something went wrong? What if their names aren’t on the list and they’re-
“There they are,” the guy says, beaming at Scully. “Dr. Scully and Mr. Mulder.”
“That is correct,” Scully says, squeezing Mulder’s hand. “Is everything in order? Can we go in and…,” she trails off, and this time Mulder tightens his hold on her. She’s probably just as nervous as he is. This was her idea, after all. And she’s always been better at hiding. He? He wears his heart on a sleeve. Hers, to be exact. Almost three decades together, and enough trauma for just as many lifetimes, they’re wary. When was the last time anything went exactly as they’d planned it?
“Everything is in order. You can go right in.”
“Thank you,” Scully says and Mulder hears the relief in her voice. They walk towards the entrance, but before they go inside, Mulder stops her.
“Last chance to change your mind, Scully.”
“I don’t want to change my mind. This is what I want. Are you sure it’s what you want? You look hot.” He grins at her. “You know what I mean.”
“I want this, too. All of this.” The house, the woman, and yes, the dog. The commitment. The whole package. It’s what he’s wanted for years. Now all he has to do is reach out and grab it. "Ready?" he asks and they walk through the door.
It’s much cooler inside and Mulder takes a deep breath, thankful for the air conditioning. A few dogs watch them walk past them and Mulder knows he can’t look because if he does, they will go home with a dozen instead of one dog.
“Dr. Scully?” A young volunteer walks towards them, smiling. “Someone’s been waiting for you.” The volunteer opens a door and there's Daggoo. His tail waggles as soon as he spots Scully, and then Mulder, too.
“There you are.” Scully is on her knees greeting her dog. Their dog, as of today. As soon as they hand in the paperwork, that is. After today, it’s going to be official. Mulder, Scully, and Daggoo. Registered at the same address.
“Do you have the paperwork?” the volunteer asks Mulder and he hands it to her. He, too, gets down to pet Daggoo behind his ear. The dog seems to grin at him, happy about all the attention. Two days without him and he’d started to miss the little bugger, who, if he’s honest, has helped him and Scully find their way back to each other much quicker with his antics.
“It all looks good. You can take him home.”
“So he’s ours now?” Scully asks, her voice trembling, her eyes traveling to Mulder’s face. All they’ve lost. All that’s been taken from them. This is their moment. It’s a new beginning. He doesn’t want to go as far and hope their luck is changing – but of course, he wants to believe. In five minutes, they’re going home. With their dog, who is registered at their address, who they’re paying taxes for. They’re going to file for taxes next year. Together. And who knows who else will wander back into their lives. He won’t ever give up hope on their son.
“He’s ours,” Mulder confirms. “Let’s go home.”
And so they do.

spot for this post you reblogged?
Tumblr media
Spot for the ask game!!! :D (This is both 92sies and Livesies Spot)
Favorite thing about him- I absolutely love the scene at the rally when he makes that gesture and the entire theater quiets down- I love the authority that just kind of radiates off of him whenever he’s on stage/onscreen.
Least favorite thing about him- In the Broadway version, he’s barely ever there- he mostly just sort of stays in the background. 92sies Spot has more of a presence, especially since he’s more of a main character in the ‘92 version.
Favorite line- “On the grounds of Brooklyn, your honor.”
BrOTP- Spot and Davey (like I said for the ask about Davey), or Spot and Sarah. Honestly, Spot and Sarah would be such a chaotic duo, especially with my own headcanons about Sarah (they’d commit arson together, 100%)
OTP- Sprace, 100%. I just love them sm
nOTP- Spot and Crutchie. Like with the Davey ask, I just don’t think they’d ever see each other as anything more than someone to be respected (or, at the most, friends).
Random headcanon- Spot plays the violin. His mother and father used to play little songs on the street for some extra cash, and sometimes when selling is slow he’ll break out his father’s old violin, find a street corner where he won’t be recognized, and play with his hat set out to collect coins given to him by people.
Unpopular opinion- (This probably isn’t unpopular, but whatever lol) honestly, I do not think he’d be the Heartless Asshole With A Soft Spot For One Specific Person Only that some people paint him as sometimes. I feel like he’d care a lot about everyone he loves, and he’d definitely show it, even if it’s just a smile every once in a while or a few words of affirmation.
Song I associate with him- Sleeping On The Blacktop by Colter Wall
Favorite picture of him-
Tumblr media
He is so enjoying all of the applause lol

Welcome to Danni's Den!
You know, if anyone wants an office tour! 😄
Tumblr media
Is it a proper office? No. One makes do when one lives in an apartment and only has so much space. (Especially when one is sharing space with a fellow nerd!) Because Eddie and I don't use a dining room, we converted the dining area into my office! So if you see peaks of the kitchen/living room/entrance, that's why! It's not much, but it's all my own! 💛
Tumblr media
Eddie installed some hooks for where my mugs used to hang. I have better mug storage now, so hanging above the entrance I put this ornament I picked up while in New Orleans back in August 2022! Gay mermen? C'mon. I named them Henry and Sebastian btw.
Tumblr media
This is my non-HP witchy section. Mostly astrology books. A few miscellaneous witchcraft books on the bottom shelf. And my crystal collection on top!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mentioned "mug collection" right? I love them! 😍 Though it might be worth noting that I have other mugs in the kitchen cabinet. 👀 And a small holiday collection I bring out during the holidays. I don't have a problem, I swear.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aaaand my cubes! My Sorting Hat. Some fandom and astrology themed candles (most from various Etsy shops.) Various HP figures. Cubes for storage (mostly notebooks and notecards and things.) I have quite the collection of tarot and oracle decks in one of the open cubes. A little chest full of decks, and a few more decks in specific deck boxes (cuz my chest is too full 🙈) I also have 2 bound fics, and a HP word search book (I looooove word searches!) Mostly the cube organizers are for various knick knacks and such.
Tumblr media
My specific HP shelf! For mostly books. I also have 2 owl plushies, 2 niffler plushies, 2 pygmy puff plushies, and a fwooper plushie. They all have names, yes.
Francine the Fwooper
Oist (white owl) (the tag said "owlette" and Eddie made a joke about naming her Oist...like "moist towelette" but "oist owlette." It stuck. Oops. She probably deserves a more dignified name but Oist made me giggle, so there we are.
Archibald (brown owl)
Nemo (black niffler)
Eva (gray niffler) (both Nemo and Eva are named after Nightwish songs, because I love Nightwish.)
Pippa (pink pygmy puff)
Puck (purple pygmy puff)
The cabinet attached to the shelf is storage. Things I don't want on display, or can't have on display right now. Miscellaneous knick-knacks from Etsy sellers or from our trip to Universal in 2017. All the HP foreign editions Eddie gifted me. Character wands (that aren't displayed) and the empty boxes for the wands I do have displayed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And THIS is where the magic happens, baby! My desk. An absurd amount of colored pens. All the books I'm most likely to consult while writing (poetry, symbolism, mythology, philosophy, etc.) My Snarry art on the wall!!!!!! 😍😍 (I need more frames so I can hang MORE SNARRY ART.) (A gal always needs more Snarry art, y'know?)
Then between my desk and the HP shelf I have PILLOWS because I'm too restless to stay in one place and position for too long. I also have a lap desk tucked away so I pull that out and hop into my pillows to keep writing! (My lil bee is named Beatrice, btw.) (Queen Bea! 🥰🥰)
This space seriously brings me so much joy, and so much inspiration. To have a space dedicated to writing, and my fandom, and my BOYS. Being able to have Snarry out and proud and all around me???? 🥺🥺 I'm all in my feelings. (Seriously, though, need MORE.) And not just a representation of my OTP, but of other creators who inspire me! The bound books being writers and bookbinders. My embroidery by onbeinganangel!! And some of the artists I love! A great reminder of all the talent in fandom and how much love and passion there is out there!!!! And I have pieces of it HERE WITH ME???? I am blown away and very in love.
I am very grateful to my partner. It was his idea to split areas so I'd have this one for myself (he has his own space now, too, for Magic the Gathering, Dungeons and Dragons, Brandon Sanderson, etc.) (Oh and his monstrous dice collection.) But I was lamenting how I was running out of room on my one little wall for Snarry art. My desk used to be on the little wall where my witchy shelf is. And it was Eddie's idea to make the whole room mine. And he and I worked hard not only rearranging to have our own areas, but decluttering and reorganizing the whole apartment! This man found the time and energy to make my life happier even when super busy and stressed from work. So in its way, this space also represents his love and thoughtfulness and dedication for me. Which makes it all the better! (And really, he had to do all of the heavy lifting, I am tragically weak.)

What is your favorite jibaku shounen hanako-kun couple? What is the couple you hate the most? It's because? Who is your favorite character? And the character you hate the most? And also why? (I know this is not a related question and you don't have to answer if you don't want to😅)
Anything can be asked at any time! If I don't feel like answering something, I'll just delete it, afterall.
Favorite couple? YUGI8! or, Amane x Nene x Tsukasa! As a complete love circle! Which means, Amane x Nene-chan Amane x Tsukasa and Tsukasa x Nene-chan!
Tumblr media
[a collab doodle with my husband drawing Amane] x more here
everything, every way! mwah mwah mwah
Aren't they all three such little goons ... they're all so playful. Everyone here loves to play a little game, roleplay, tinker with toys ... whatever I imagine with the three, at any ages, it's a complete riot ... I want Amane's hands to be full with his otouto and his girlfriend... I want them to rope Amane into all sorts of nonsense ... and of course, Nene-chan needs someone on her side who understands Amane!!! Amane can't act so difficult and avoidant if Tsukasa is there ;) he knows when you are lying... ! The girls need to help eachother not get bullied too much by Amane, wwww..... and getting to see Tsukasa having a nice time with a girl, could heal Amane's heart, eventually (it'll give him a problem somewhere else, but that's fine)... in some ways I think Amane and Nene-chan could really corner Tsukasa, as much as Nene-chan and Tsukasa could corner Amane, or Tsukasa and Amane could corner Nene-chan... literally, the possibilities are endless!!! And Amane will get to dom everyone, good for him :D!
In my heart, I believe it's possible, and beautiful. I even think we will see it happen, some day…. *stares into the stars* I really do…
I don't really think I super "hate" anything in this manga, I enjoy the overall writing and theming enough that I'm engaged when anyone is on the page… though Kou does frustrate me a lot. I've said it many times but I suppose I shall say it all again:
Kou x Mitsuba is, among what shows up regularly in the canon at least, the least fun or cute for me. I think it's Kou's fault though, for also having a crush on Nene-chan… what a meaningless feeling ... on top of that, he apparently values his normal guy friends a lot ... the fact he really thinks of his meaningless friends at all in the Red House really degrades his emotional landscape to me, too .... when you have characters as isolated/one-track minded as Sumire/Hakubo, Aoi/Akane, Amane/Tsukasa and Amane/Nene, even Teru's feelings towards Kou … that makes the overall set-up much less atmospheric ... Kou really is a normal, directionless idiot...
and then his crush on Nene-chan, that degrades whatever Mitsuba is, because it shows Kou can BE complimentary and blushy in a normal way with someone he likes, why ????? He doesn't throw her around the room or scream at her, like he does Mitsuba!!!! So you see, it makes me feel bad for Mitsuba! It feels like Kou has no idea what he's doing or what he feels, AND he's reactive at the drop of a hat, so he'll scream something as if he believes it or as if it means anything, then he won't do a single useful thing…
on top of it all, it's very devastating that he simply didn't remember Mitsuba … even though other classmates of theirs did. That's such a rough "first meeting" for your OTP …………… compared to everything else, EVEN his OWN BROTHER'S feelings for HIM, it's really not romantic at all … Again, it makes me feel bad for Mitsuba…. WHAT A BAD LOVE STORY YOU'RE MAKING, KOU, IF THAT'S WHAT IT IS--!!!! He really makes it all not beautiful at all… !!! Not a single admirable thing about it!!! Tsukasa is doing everything for Mitsuba, too...
Oh I accidentally answered what character I dislike … it is Kou. He is just so stupid … he yells all the time and he is physically violent at the drop of a hat … he for some reason has had no development in his ambitions and still wants to be an exorcist … he just wants to be strong and cool like his big brother. He is very basic normal masculine boy with insecurity about being seen as weak or useless. Compared to someone with a RICH INNER WORLD like Amane, or someone with real lonliness like Mitsuba, he's really frustrating …. he just has friends and family he loves … he is spoiled … yet he has the nerve to insult Mitsuba and blast him with lightning every 3 seconds … he really is mean and shitty … he has no perspective, so sad people like Teru and Mitsuba are without any reassurance .... I have no idea why he is seen as "good nice wholesome boy", he talks extremely rudely, he acts extremely abrasively… he's such a generic shounen protag boy, yelling empty platitudes that don't mean anything. He never has anything beautiful, poignant, or observant to say … I feel like he has the memory of a goldfish....
Kou is most interesting to me when he is finally simply being full bore deplorable, which I feel is closer to his true nature, anyway ... like in Ghost Hotel, he's terrorizing and chopping up and eating Mitsuba ... I like the aquarium thing, because seeing the assault manifest so full-force felt very 'real', for a Kou emotionally explosive moment. I'd like him stop pretending to be a hero, for real ...
But I guess if you wanted to consider non-canon pairings I truly but actually do hate some haha, like, Hanako x Kou (BARF), Kou x Nene-chan (BARF). It's like ... utter nonsense. Truly drivel. Don't you ever let that nasty gangly thing touch any part of my ship …………………..

A few scattered thoughts for the day (all Good Omens related bc i live here now):
A) I think I really want to do more for the GO fic I wrote, even though the reception it got was lukewarm at best because I apparently enjoy making myself suffer with one half of the OTP not remembering the other. BUT I can't settle on the next point in time I want to put the new scene in, so I'm just languishing in Writer Hell. ToT
B) It just struck me that it is super weird that apparently NO ONE in Heaven thought check the security footage of Gabriel leaving? I mean, like IMMEDIATELY, when they couldn't find his memory and realized he was gone. It would have been obvious that he got off the elevator at Earth, though it might have been harder to tell WHERE on Earth he had ended up. He must have actually meant to hit the button to go all the way down to Hell instead, which would have been kind of hilarious, honestly. The part of me wearing a tinfoil hat sort of wants to blame the whole thing on the Metatron. Obviously, he couldn't plan for Gabriel and Beelzebub falling in love, but once it became apparent that Gabriel was not going to play ball anymore, he became a useful pawn for something else that the Metatron wants to get rid of before the second coming (Crowley and Aziraphale's partnership). I mean, really? Of all places, Gabriel just HAPPENS to end up going to Aziraphale? He doesn't even like him! He tried to kill him!! The Metatron never seems surprised or even upset that Gabriel "got away." I think he used Gabriel to get Aziraphale "in trouble" so that he could show up at the last minute and "save" him from the other angels. Maybe. As I said, tinfoil hat. XD
C) I am back on my bullshit for the final 15 and I'm taking you all down with me. After Crowley walks out, Aziraphale turns away from the door to try and contain how upset he is, and when the Metatron comes in, he turns around SO FAST, because for half a second he thinks Crowley came back. And when he sees that it isn't him, he has to turn away to collect himself again. :'))) After I noticed that, it was so clear how badly Aziraphale did not want to go to Heaven. At least, not without Crowley. He's just staring out the window at him, he's choked up when he talks, his face is full of panic and longing. He actually chases after the Metatron for a few steps when he leaves, shaking his head, and nearly throwing the whole deal out. There are still tears in his eyes when he shakes himself out of it and puts on that big fake smile and says "nothing at all."
But he still does it. He still goes. Because he clearly thinks that he has to. And he doesn't even know about the second coming yet, so it's not to prevent that. Is it really just "making a difference"? I mean, he didn't even seem interested until being with Crowley was on the table, so "making a difference" didn't seem to matter that much until he thought they could also be together. Which would make one assume that if Crowley wasn't interested in going, Aziraphale would also lose interest in going, since that was the carrot that allegedly walked him through the door on that totally legit and non-threatening deal.
I DON'T KNOW. EVERYTHING IS SUSPICIOUS. I JUST WANT ANSWERS. T_T

It's me again and yes to all of that sure he wanted his friends to be happy but I meant more specifically that he wanted Kie to be happy even if it wasn't with him and you can tell that hurt a lot he couldn't even look at her kissing Pope's cheek at to cover up his poor eyes with his hat I was sad for him there. I for one can't wait when she finds out a lot of things he does is for her and how much he loves her and willing to give up for her this really is the superior ship all 3 otps lol
NOT THE HAT COVER SLKFJSLDKFJ ONE OF MY TOP JJ SCENES AHHHHHHHHH IT MAKES ME WANNA SCREAM!!!!
But yes, I totally got what you meant! He for sure was the maker of his own misery in this scene, pushing Kie toward Pope for whatever reason - he thought that she deserved someone "good", that that's what would make his friends happy, etc.
This particular expression of his was SO PAINFUL because it wasn't the sort of scowls we got in his other jealous scenes with John B. This was...truly upset, devastated, and just...sad. It was much more sobering than his other looks. So much so that he quite literally shielded his face and turned away before anyone could clock it.
I wonder how much she'll find out about the past, his feelings, the reasons for some of his actions. I'm not sure! But I think she's having a realization of oh...he would die for me, literally. Maybe that explains some things.

what to expect from rain
Written for Year of the OTP - June
Prompts: Wedding/Proposal | Sick Fic | (Accidental) Love Confession | “You aren’t what I expected.” | Downpour | Soulmate AU
Title: what to expect from rain
Ship: Respectfulshipping | Ryoken/Spectre
Fandom: Yu-Gi-Oh! Vrains
Rating: T
Word Count: 1,340
Tags: Grief, Canonical Character Death, Love Confessions, First Kiss, Past/Referenced Child Abuse, Abandonment Trauma, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff and Angst, Crying
   Weather like this was nostalgic for them.
   The bang and clang of thunder, the flashes of lightning, the brightness of it all. Even in the dim of the storm clouds, these sorts of summery wet season storms meant a lot to them both but Spectre especially.
   It was too little wonder that Ryoken found Spectre in the closest thing the ship had to a sunroom in weather like this. He looked drowned out by the colouration of the air and rain and yet, his expression was in total awe. He grinned and laughed with every ordinance of thunder.
   That was until he had heard Ryoken approach. His footsteps had been purposefully soft but Spectre was forever fine tuned to his master’s movements, always willing to serve, assist, or otherwise fuss when his master was closeby. At that drop of a hat-like quickness, hearing just the smudge of footsteps, Spectre turned around and that uncharacteristically wholesome cheeriness in his face vanished when his gaze met Ryoken’s. 
   Spectre’s face changed drastically. Turned drained, somehow. He paled. His eyes watered. He cried.
   “Whoa, Spectre, are you okay?” Ryoken was alarmed to say the least.
   He had been meandering closer, hoping for a quiet moment between them both as they enjoyed the storm but this sudden change of mood, just as swift and unpredictable as a lightning strike, had Ryoken concerned. He hurried closer, put his hands atop Spectre’s as Spectre cried.
   “I’m sorry. I- I don’t know why.” 
   He’d been out of sorts lately. They both knew. But they both denied it, also. Not wanting to confront the changes as of late. 
   Ryoken’s heart twinged with guilt but he stepped forward. He rubbed a tear off the edge of Spectre’s tear duct, the saline smeared on his cheek but Spectre hazarded a smile. He allowed the closeness, even as his breathing turned his haggard and there was a scant blush to his cheek.
   “It’s okay.” Ryoken whispered to console him.
   It wasn’t okay though.
   Spectre sat down, plummeted down and had his back to the glass windowpane. He brought his knees up to his chest and tried to become as compact as possible. His swiftness of his rejection of Ryoken’s attempt to console him was astounding but not surprising.
   Ryoken sighed.
   He got down on Spectre’s level, sitting with him. Back to the window. It was cold, condensation seeping through as the rain continued to pour down heavily.
   “I’m sorry.” Ryoken murmured.
   “It's not your fault.” Spectre replied.
   “I could’ve been… more helpful, though.” Ryoken confessed.
   He placed his hand on Spectre’s shoulder. He was breaking down, bursting at the seams. He wasn’t strong. He was weak. They both knew that.
   “I could be better, too, though.” Spectre said bitterly.
   He began to claw at his face, splotchy with his tears. He sighed. Hard. He really wasn’t sure how he felt about Ryoken’s hand on his shoulder. It was sympathetic, sure, but Spectre wasn’t sure if he was deserving of sympathy.
   “You're not what I expected, you know that, right?” Ryoken murmured. His fingers dug into Spectre’s shoulder. Just like his Father would to him, to keep him grounded. To keep him looking at the future, the better and more evolved future.
   “I know that.” Spectre said.
   “When I brought you home, I never thought that any of the Incident victims would want to come back to that place but when I saw you smile. I was confused and I was sick to my stomach when you explained your perspective-”
   Spectre snorted. His gut wrenched and another tear threatened to spill out the side of his eyes. It didn’t sound like praise and yet, Ryoken’s voice was so fond. There was a smile on his face, Spectre saw when he glanced at him in his periphery. 
   “But we figured it out.” Ryoken said. “You became my most loyal and steadfast friend.”
   “I did. Thank you for having me.” Spectre murmured.
   “And when I - when we - asked for your assistance to destroy the very thing you worked so hard for, you didn’t hesitate to help.” Ryoken lamented. His smile shrank, his eyes darkened. “I’m sorry. I am.” His hand slipped down from atop Spectre’s shoulder. 
   Spectre squeezed himself tighter. He thought about Earth. The attribute which was associated with stability. He wondered just how much of Earth, despite their distance, was what had kept him propped up the last few years and now that he was gone. It was such a small thing and yet it was enough to rend open a huge, gaping wound in his heart, to draw forth tears. Even now. So many months after the fact of Earth’s death.
   It pained him. Made him wonder how things would have been different if he had been allowed to pair up with his Ignis like Yusaku and his were allowed - or Takeru and his. He had made his choice, however. Ten years ago. It would be cruel and shallow of him to change his mind this late regarding his allegiances. Now he was just as bad as whoever it was who had surrendered him to his Mother Tree when it came to Earth… 
   (Yet he still had that vain wish, that they could have met or could have remained as they were, perpendicular with no conflict between the creations and their creator…)
   He had Ryoken. The boy that he had met in the downpour ten years ago. The one who had connected him back to the thing that had given him the greatest importance that he had ever had as a six-year-old who had grown up after being abandoned. 
   Ryoken was quiet. They both were. He scooted in closer to Spectre and Spectre, surprisingly, he leaned in. He rested his head on Ryoken’s shoulder.
   “I love you.” Spectre murmured.
   “I love you, too.” Ryoken replied.
   “You were everything I had expected. An angel, if I can be so corny. I wanted someone to find me, someone who I could have all to myself…” Spectre rambled.
   Ryoken hiccuped. It might have been a laugh, it might not have but it got a chuckle out of Spectre as he nuzzled into Ryoken’s warm side.
   “Even now?” Ryoken asked.
   “Well, you're still here with me, aren’t you?” Spectre replied with a question - and a rhetorical one at that.
   He lifted his head off Ryoken’s shoulder and Spectre initiated a kiss. The kiss made Ryoken’s eyes widen but when he accepted it, he allowed them to flutter close and he kissed back against Spectre’s lips. They were plush, like the petals of a flower.
   This was their first kiss. It was a long time coming, they could both say so much.
   Spectre sighed, “You're here for me, that’s all that I care about.”
   His voice cracked. He shed another tear. All against the unerring downpour of the rain behind them.
   “I’ll always be here for you, I promise.” Ryoken affirmed.
   He kissed Spectre again. Harder, more fervent, enough to make Spectre’s heart leap to his throat as he kissed back against Ryoken’s mouth. They kissed for several more seconds. Seconds so long they could have been hours, not just minutes. They were forceful, push and pull, tug of war type kisses because neither knew what they were doing. Just that they wanted to be here. Right here, right now, in the cool of the rain on the window and in the shadow of what had brought them together. For better or for worse.
   When Spectre broke off the kiss, he took a deep breath, “I feel better now, thank you.”
   “I’m glad.” Ryoken said.
   Spectre twisted back around so he could sit, facing forward. He placed his hand over Ryoken’s and he held it tight. He really did feel better and that nostalgia replaced it again. Be it the Incident, the Ignis, Ryoken’s Father, and the rest of the Knights: through it all. Things were changing, they had changed but they would get through it, the thick and thin of it as leader and loyal second-in-command.

Magnificus!
HELL yeah I was hoping I’d get to talk about this guy I love shaking him like a towel.
Favorite thing about them: This is more of me admiring the attention to detail in this game (intentional or not) but his personality and card game system go hand-in-hand so well. Mox in general is a wild system. No one knows how to use it, you have to predict your opponent’s moves ahead of time, and it doesn’t work very well with the other systems outside of specialty cards but is exceptionally powerful when meticulously planned and utilized correctly… I don’t think I need to say where I’m going with this.
Least favorite thing about them: I’m not going to say the wizard torture because that’s a cop-out (and honestly the Scrybes all doing heinous shit because they all genuinely feel they have to is part of what makes them compelling villains). Instead I’m going to say the fact that we know absolutely nothing about this guy. I’m all for mysterious ambiguity in characters but it’s really tough to work off of absolutely nothing. Also the fact that he doesn’t canonically wear a wizard hat. He should wear a wizard hat. Give him a wizard hat.
Favorite line: I don’t think I have one. I do want to know what the fuck he was going to say before he disappeared in Act 2 though.
brOTP: I don’t think they’re friends in the slightest but the paint droplets outside of her clearing in Leshy’s domain seem to imply that Magnificus and the Woodcarver have talked at some point, maybe frequently. Again, despite that, I don’t think they’re friends—Woodcarver desperately wishes the Scrybes would leave her alone (she’s already not the most fond of Leshy, much less another self-proclaimed god waltzing in to interrupt her peace and quiet) and Magnificus is just as neutral on her as he is with everyone else who isn’t an immediate threat—but they’ve talked often enough about damage control from various takeovers that there’s at very least no hostility. Which is about the most you can ask for in this sort of situation.
Having said that I can’t see Magnificus being casual friends with anyone in his current state. I think even if someone wanted desperately to be friends (see: Goobert) he’d try everything possible to subdue them because he’d immediately assume they’d interrupt his 12-step-plan-for-the-future in some way or another—he has a plan for just about everything and he really doesn’t want someone else to throw a wrench in that. He knows via future vision they’re not going to try and usurp him but he can still never be too cautious. Not much reasoning with this guy.
OTP: I know I’m missing the point of the “pairing” part in OTP but for all four Scrybes the Scrybe Polycule is going here. Or just any of the other Scrybes in general. I like them in a “studying them under a microscope” kind of way. They’re probably never all going to get their shit together to make things work again but it’s the thought that counts (not really considering they’re all perpetually fistfighting each other but hey). Maybe one day they’ll stop trying to kill each other. Huge step in the right direction.
nOTP: I haven’t seen any ships with Magnificus aside from him + other Scrybes so I don’t have anything to put here (for all I know there’s a huge Inscryp shipping community and it’s all just flown under my radar. I have no idea).
Random headcanon: I’ve already talked about his claws, I’ve already shitposted about him turning his head like an owl… so instead of taking a natural progression into anything else I’m going to take a sharp left and say he’s resistant to most forms of magical damage. His hair is fireproof, a poor conductor, insulating against the cold, negates acid splash damage, wards away necrosis—you name it, it’s probably going to bounce right off. This does, however, leave a pretty glaring weakness to just… punching him. If you can manage to skirt around his constant premonitions enough to get close and you can lift more than 30lbs above your head, you can probably just snap him like a twig.
Unpopular opinion: Where do I even start. Even liking Magnificus is an unpopular opinion, somehow. I’m pretty sure I’ve already said the long version of this in another post so I’ll keep it short: people are way too harsh on this guy. Yeah he’s evil and awful (obviously—I’m not going to sit here and say torturing college students isn’t fucked up), but he’s not really worse than the other Scrybes. All four of them are operating on levels of blue and orange morality and making one of them out to be unequivocally evil while forgiving another one who does almost the exact same thing (looking at you, P03) is super boring. Either make them all super fucked up and evil or give them all a chance to recognize the severity of their actions—let’s not stand on the fence on this one.
Song I associate with them: I haven’t really found many songs that capture whatever he’s got going on very well, probably because it’s pretty damn specific. Mr. Magic by Reliqa is good for something harsher/an outside perspective, or Visions by Sea Wolf for a (long before canon) pre-canon Magnificus. As a bonus… I was going to try and avoid multiple songs by the same artist too but fuck it. Whose Eye is it Anyway??? by Jhariah is too fun to not mention.
Favorite picture of them: I really like his act 2 overworld sprite, it’s so ridiculous-looking

If you had to ship Nami with another Straw Hat pirate, who would it be and why?
Another as in I must only pick one? As a multishipper forever, picking just one is hard and what counts as a straw hat?
But if I had to pick one official Straw Hat I would pick Zoro. I think they understand each other on a different wavelength, and they have a way of easily picking up on each other's moods and intent. I also love the idea of Nami making Zoro owe her for eternity as a way to keep him on the hook and in her life. No matter how far his lost ass strays, she has faith in his own weird intuitions to he there when needed. I also love a general sort of back and forth with my ships and Zoro and Nami hit my drive each other up the wall on purpose and kiss and make up later vibe.
If Vivi counts as a Staw Hat I would pick her first, because Vivi will always be Nami's first love, and if I CAN pick more than one, I will also throw Sanji into the ring. Despite everything I wrote from her POV earlier, I actually love the ship and it was my first One Piece OTP until someone temporarily ruined it for me but I love them again

Klee. If you don't like that one, then Lisa.
I’ll do both!
KLEE
favorite thing about them
Her hat! I like how the shape looks on her and the big feathers on the side are fun to draw. The clover motif in her attacks is cute too!
least favorite thing about them
Come to think of it, her hair colour is kinda close to her skin colour so with all the bangs around her (small) face and her ears poking out, it’s hard to differentiate which parts are her hair and which are her face and ears (when drawing her)🤔
favorite line
“Sucrose is the best! This one time she asked me if I wanted a Jumpy Dumpty that can run as well as jump. Tee-hee, well duh! Of course I do, I want hundreds of them! I wanna put them on every street, every staircase, and every square in Mondstadt!”
—About Sucrose
Simply for the image of Jumpy Dumpty with legs. Sucrose’s skills can be used for something fun and kinda cursed
brOTP
Klee and Albedo and Kaeya! (Ah, most of my platonic pairs are with Kaeya huh)
OTP
None.
nOTP
Any sort of romantic pairing with her, really.
random headcanon
She likes Puppy-Paw Hash Brown! (I wonder if it’s ‘cause I like hash browns too…)
unpopular opinion
Seeing her wield a book as a catalyst is kinda funny haha
song i associate with them
Her character theme, “Let’s Go, Crimson Knight!”. A very silly and fun song that fits her!
favorite picture of them
Tumblr media
From her character PV, yep :)
——
LISA
My main!
favorite thing about them
It’s a bunch of little things, but I like how calm and relaxed she is, and her idle animation with the rose is pretty… It’s very fun to do overload reactions with her in-game (yeah Catalysts!). But lore-wise I like the bit in her story about her Vision. (What is it with me liking starter characters and their Visions. Man it’s happened twice already haha)
least favorite thing about them
Her outfit is a little too revealing for me, haha. Also cooldown for holding her Skill is long wow
favorite line
With the aid of her Vision, Lisa acquired the knowledge that she sought. But she also sensed the deep secret hidden in the shadows of that knowledge.
For whatever reason, the gods gave humans the key to changing everything, but they did not explain the cost involved. Lisa grew fearful of the truth.
The Vision that hung from her neck became to her a bottomless pit filled with sweet delights, lingering at the back of her mind.
—Character Story: Vision
Ah arcane horror…. I gotta explore this bit some more. Though, what exactly was the price she paid that made her so scared of the truth?
brOTP
I’m sure Lisa and Kaeya would know a lot of gossip and can get information from opponents using many methods, be it verbal or by force… They’re the brains in my main team. Speaking of, Lisa and Kaeya drinking tea/wine as they watch Bennett and Tartaglia sparring in the distance would be a nice scene…
OTP
I don’t really ship her with anyone romantically but Jean and Lisa being cool on the battlefield is a very close thing. Their colour schemes look nice together.
nOTP
…Lisa and Kaeya? I just like them as buddies haha
random headcanon
She lets Albedo use her workshop and they discuss magic and alchemy together. She eventually grows uneasy around Albedo who possesses vast ancient knowledge, and is worried he would lose control one day. But this is where she takes a page from Kaeya and hides all of it.
unpopular opinion
…I like her flirtatious voicelines..?.? But at the same time I like how she’s like a older sister to the Traveler.
song i associate with them
I don’t really associate any song in particular with her. Uhh since she’s usually on the field for me, Mondstadt battle OSTs?
favorite picture of them
I like how she looks in the manga here in Chapter 6. The cell-shading and colours work with her design well <3
