bringing this these thought(s) to your inbox because i think it should be public...
delinquent!kylo who finds all too much enjoyment hiding in your room everytime your family comes knocking. delinquent!kylo who not only hides under your bed when your mom comes in, but also fits his huge frame into your closet when your brother comes in to ask if you've seen him. delinquent!kylo who lets your parents gush over him at the dinner table while his hand is inching up your thigh.
i thank god daily for your work in the delinquent!kylo community.
PLEASE ur so real
delinquent!kylo who goes downstairs to fetch you water and compliments the smell of your mother's cooking so nonchalantly as if he didn't just blow her daughter's back out. delinquent!kylo who once caught you from almost falling off of your roof bc he smoked you out so hard. delinquent!kylo who shoots you looks everytime your parents say something nice about him that isn't true in the slightest. delinquent!kylo who thinks he hides your relationship from your brother so well until one night they're playing video games and your brother mentions it nonchalantly, making kylo choke on his beer. delinquent!kylo who drives like a fucking mad man to come pick you up, but drives normally when youre in the car. delinquent!kylo who makes fun of your music taste but when he finally lets you play some lana for him, he starts secretly liking it too. (he will never admit this) delinquent!kylo whos phone automatically connects to your speaker even though it isn't his. you'll be listening to mitski in the shower then all of a sudden it changes to icp, scaring the shit out of you. delinquent!kylo who buys your parents mothers and fathers day gifts. delinquent!kylo who insists reality tv is stupid but is totally not at all invested in kuwtk bc you made him watch three episodes once. delinquent!kylo. thank you.

“Maybe we can eat out tonight.”
You shake some water off your hand and readjust your ear bud, listening to the sounds of the city as you wait for your husband to reply. He mumbles something you don’t catch as you scrub at a dish leftover from breakfast, rinsing off the soap and putting it in the rack on autopilot.
“I really want something…else to eat.”
There’s a smirk in Nanami’s voice when he asks, “Something else, huh?”
“Yeah,” you say as you wash your hands. “The boys will probably be happy. A restaurant on a weeknight?”
He chuckles. “Don’t get too crazy, baby.”
“Can we go or not? I need to shower if we are,” you explain as you lean on the counter. “ I’m still wearing the shirt Su spilt his milk on.”
“I thought he spilled that yesterday?”
“Exactly, babe.”
Silence hangs on the line for a moment before his laughter bleeds through, causing your face to go hot as the sound fills every inch of you with joy. Your hand comes down to cradle your stomach, a smile forming on your face as your mind's eye pictures him laughing handsomely on the busy city street.
 A silly thought fills your head when you feel your baby move, the idea that she can hear her dad through your ears causing you to laugh, too.
“We can go wherever you want, sweetheart. Do you want me to decide?”
“Yeah,” you push off the counter and head toward your bedroom. “I don’t know what I want. Something good. Maybe Italian.”
“I’ll take care of it. Go ahead and get showered. I’ll be home soon.”
You continue on auto pilot, stripping down and taking a quick shower as you think about having spumoni for dessert in a few hours. There’s time to spare once you’ve gotten yourself half dressed, and you decide to treat yourself to a few minutes in bed as you wait for your boys to get home.
You scroll through your phone once you’re snuggled in, hand slipping under the old t-shirt you’re wearing to rub your belly as you scroll through international headlines.
A gasp escapes you after a few minutes, tears filling your eyes as you read and reread the headline: ‘This Could Be the End’ for NASA’s Mars Opportunity Rover.
“The end???”
You read through the article, hating yourself as you begin to cry about a poor little rover you knew little to nothing about a few minutes ago.
“She died?”
Your mom doesn’t answer your call, and neither does your best friend or cousin. You just barely resist calling your husband back, not wanting him to think you’ve gone mad in your last trimester, but the tears don’t stop coming as you continue to read as many articles as you can find.
“She died,” you confirm, gripping your phone in your hand before burrowing your face into your husband’s pillow and crying your eyes out. You’re not particularly sure why you’re crying, but a little lone robot on a faraway planet sending her last message seems as good a reason as any.
And this is how he finds you, panic in his voice as he pulls you into his arms and attempts to figure out who you’re saying has died through your sobbing.
“O-opportunity, Kento! A l-little Mars R-rover who lo-lost her sister t-to early,” you attempt to explain. He nods along as though he understands. “She g-got stuck in-in-in a dust st-storm and ne-never recovered.
“They’ve been trying to ping her for months b-but nu-noth-inggg. Antennas o-on Earth call out b-but she nev-never repliiiies.” 
“Oh no, sweetheart,” he says, patient and sympathetic. “I can’t imagine how knowing that must make you feel.”
“S-so sa-sad.”
He rubs your back soothingly, offering comforting sounds as you stumble through a jumbled re-explanation of why you’re crying. “So awful, honey,” he agrees. “But she lived a good life.”
“An’ they pl-played Billie Holiday’s I-I-I’ll Be See-ing You.”
“A love song?” He muses. “That’s sweet, yn.”
“An’ her l-last words?” You pull away to look at him, wiping your face on your collar in an attempt to get yourself together. He blinks patiently at you as he waits, tutting when you hiccup and begin to cry again. “I’m sorryyyy.”
“That’s what she said?” He asks, surprise in his voice as he lets you cuddle back into his chest.
“No. She said m-my battery is l-low n’-n’-n’ it’s getting d-d-daarrrk.”
“Oh.” He hesitates a moment before saying, “That’s a bit bleak, isn’t it?”
“All a-alone in a strange pl-place,” you bury your face in his chest as you cry, silence falling between you all.
He rubs your belly soothingly, making a soft sound when he feels the baby move. It helps to calm you, causing you to blink sleepily as you begin to wonder about dinner and your children.
“Ken?” You ask after a few minutes. 
“Yes, my love?”
“Wh-Where are the boys?”
“They’re supposed to be picking out their outfits for dinner…Are you feeling-
“Sweetheart,” he sighs as you begin to cry again, cradling you a little closer. “Opportunity lived a long life, yn. Fourteen years, right? And they only expected a few months.”
“I-I’m n-not cry-ing about thaaaat.”
“Oh, dear. What is it? I’ll take you to see the boys, if you’d like. I’m sure you’re worrying them.”
You clutch at his shirt before wiping your nose with your own and pushing away from your husband. He seems reluctant to let you go, one of his hands settling protectively on your bump as the other brushes hair away from your face. “Yn?”
“Su ha-has awful taste, K-Kento.”
Nanami stiffens in surprise before pressing a kiss to your temple and resting his forehead on your shoulder.
“H-he can’t be tr-trusted t-t-to pick out hi-his own clothesss.”
“Perhaps we should go and help them,” he suggests, a laugh escaping him a moment later.
“Yeah,” you say, a bit pathetically as you make no effort to move. “Do you hey-hate me for crying?”
“Never.”
“Even i-if it’s ab-bout ssstupid things?”
He kisses up your shoulder and encourages you to look at him. “You could ugly cry about losing your diamond  earrings in the ocean and I’d still comfort you, sweetheart.”
You offer him a watery laugh. “I-it’s only beca-cause I’m ha-having your b-baby,” you say as you wipe your tears, grateful that you're calming down again.
“Well. Especially because you're carrying our daughter, yeah. But, children or no children, you know I'd do anything for you. You’re my whole world.”
Another round of tears come, loud and obnoxious, and you can hear the boys running down the hall before breaking into the room as your husband asks, “Wha-why are you crying now?” 
“Amma?” Yuji asks at the same time Sukuna says, “Sweetheart…”
“She’s ok, boys,” Nanami says gently, motioning for them to join you all on the bed. “Remember I told you sometimes Amma gets so full of love for the baby she just has to cry?”
“What baby?” You question huffily, letting both boys invade your space as they reach out to rest their little hands on your stomach, mimicking Nanami as his thumb rubs back and forth.  “‘m not cr-crying because of her. ‘m crying b-because I’m yo-or whole world, Kennyyyyy-”

The City Never Sleeps (title pending, please suggest names), is a new reality show set in NYC that follows a group of socialites and up-and-coming people. Think Laguna beach without the beach vibes and a little bit KUWTK. Most everyone on the show is from a well-off family and has money to blow and live for the drama. character one // early to mid 20's // female castmate // best or really good friends with japser // enjoys pushing buttons // is but isn't a girls girl // is going to attend lucas arian's bachelor party instead of cecilia's bachelorette to ruffle feathers, flirt, or both // is new to the show this season and has no problem making a name for herself.
character two // mid 20's // male cast mate // close friends with cecilia acevedo + they vacationed together a bit when she started to grow traction on social media // up in the air whether they hooked up in the past // has their eye on bambi or jasper and has been talking up the situation with ceci aka let's stir the pot a little more.
character three // early to mid 20's // male castmate // dating an ex of one of the castmates already on the show // doesn't care if it's awkward brings them about for cameos // maybe they did it on purpose and don't really care about boundaries after all it's reality tv.

They really got the shots from every angle 😂
https://www.reddit.com/r/KUWTK/s/QPJKsz4pEF
of course they did. And they “performed” knowing they would be shot from every angle, but like I said, the dude sucks at kissing, so no amount of angles can make it look remotely sexy. 😬

(—) ★ spotted!! CATHERINE "ROCKY" KENNEDY on the cover of this week’s most recent tabloid! many say that the 26 year old looks like WALLIS DAY, but i don’t really see it. while  the F1 DRIVER is known for being CONFIDENT my inside sources say that they have a tendency to be A PERFECTIONIST i swear, every time i think of them, i hear the song I’M GOOD (BLUE) BY DAVID GUETTA AND BEBE REXHA {she/they / ciswoman} 
Name: Catherine "Rocky" Kennedy Nicknames: Rocky, Cat (usually reserved for family or close loved ones)Age: 26 Height: 5'8" Gender: ciswoman Marital Status: unmarried Sexuality: Lesbian Mother: Kathy Kennedy Father: Jonathan Kennedy Siblings: Jordana Kennedy (41) Lydia Kennedy (39) Mackenzie Kennedy-Holder (33), Jonathan "Johnny" Kennedy (28) Frankie Kennedy (23-24) Extended family: Micah Kennedy (22, Nephew) Madeline Kennedy (21, Niece)
it was obvious early on that Catherine was going to share more than just her name with her mother. Baby photos of the pair shared all over showing the fact that Katherine Kennedy gave birth to a mini version of herself.
Much to Kathy's dislike their name and looks were where the similarities stopped. From a young age Kathy had tried to get her into modelling, and young Catherine showed no interest. She always showed far more interest in chasing her older siblings around and getting herself into trouble (the family laundry was considerably larger for a long time and it hadn't had anything to do with the youngest Kennedy's birth)
Age 3 Catherine earned her nickname "Rocky." She had been playing nicely with a young boy at an event the family attended. The Kennedy parents paid no attention to it until a loud 'Thwack!' was heard and the boy began crying. No one heard exactly what was said but 3-year-old Catherine insisted that the right hook she delivered to the boy's face was justified. Jonathan had simply scooped her up, placed a gentle kiss to her right hand and said "Well, aren't you my little Rocky" The name has stuck ever since
Quick Fire Facts (Because brain no longer wants to paragraph?)
Discovered her love of racing around age 10 when her father was invited to spend a weekend at a NASCAR race in promotion for Keeping Up With The Kennedys. He let her have the hot lap they offered and that was that. No more ballet or modelling for her, she only wanted to race.
She had a natural talent for racing but having the money and connections from her parents really helped push her career forward.
2020 she was signed as a back-up driver for mercedes f1 team. At the beginning of 2023 she made headlines by breaking her contract to jump ship to ferrari to race as their main driver. Mercedes was convinced she'd stay with them for longer out of loyalty despite Ferrari offering a better deal. Clearly Mercedes forgot what her last name is.
Is the Kennedy gremlin child. Doesn't mind getting her hands dirty, works on her own cars. Loves stirring Johnny up with as many dirty rags as possible
Loves to party. Will take any excuse to go clubbing. Has been caught DUI twice but Kathy has seen to it that TMZ never got their hands on that.
Has an on and off again girlfriend. She's pretty sure she loves her but she can't commit to the same racing suit let alone a relationship
Never really had much of a problem with the cameras from KUWTKs following her around. She never knew any different and it works in her favour. She is more likely to be sponsered and get adversiting deals as she was already famous before racking.
Wanted Connections The besties 0/?:
I imagine this person(s) is very good at matching Rocky's chaotic style energy. Someone she can go to and party with but also someone she can cuddle with on the couch and watch TV with
On and off again girlfriend 0/1:
(—) ★ CATHERINE KENNEDY {wallis day} would like to see their ON AND OFF AGAIN GIRLFRIEND. they should be 24 TO 30 years old and some fc suggestions are SOPHIE SKELTON, JESSICA PARKER KENNEDY, ABIGAIL COWEN, UTP . Their relationship is amazing when it’s going well and a true dumpster fire when it’s not. Rhea travels the world a lot during F1 season and spends a lot of time at the track it’s UTP how this affects their relationship. Rhea has given up counting how many times they’ve split up but continues to come back to her every single time. Everything else is utp and plotting. .
Current and Past Flings 0/?: what it says on the tin really!
MORE TBA

Hello! Long time f1 watcher here! I saw your post in the F1 tag and thought I'd answer some of your questions: 1) it's been half a year since the last race of 2021 and even though there's been a whole investigation (by the FIA) into what happened in Abu Dhabi, we still don't actually have an explanation why only the lapped cars between Max and Lewis were allowed to unlap themselves. The report itself is also frustrating because it's riddled with contradictions, typos and literal wrong facts so it's nice they took it this seriously I guess (/s). It did result in a restructuring of race control and new race directors but I'm not entirely sure yet how much better it is than last year.
2) The impression that RB/Max always got penalized for their mistakes and Lewis didn't is something that I wouldn't say is true because Netflix left out the races and moments of last year where Max did something that could have gotten him penalised but didn't like Barcelona, Imola, Sao Paolo. It went so far that the drivers and the driver's union were basically begging the race director and stewards to give out penalties consistently but race control basically just said well we can't guarantee that, sorry. In Sao Paolo for example Lewis tried overtaking Max on the outside but Max pushed him so far off track that he couldn't make the corner himself and was 3 car widths off track and the incidence wasn't even investigated at all. Other drivers were asked about it the race after and almost all of them said well if that's allowed now I guess I'm going to do that too.
I still think the fact that they basically left out the Brasil weekend is a crime because that entire weekend from practice to the end of the race was naturally drama filled and has such an enormous arc that made me go how is this not scripted. It would have deserved its own episode but I guess the drama was too natural for Netflix and they would have had to explain too many sporting regulations which they just never bothered with up until now haha.
Anyway the whole 2021 was a mess but I hope you have fun with it. Welcome to the fandom (my nr1 advice would be curate the blogs you follow very thoroughly it's the only way to live because most of the fandom is unhinged haha. But if you have questions people are usually happy to answer them so shoot I might just lurk around.)
thank you for clarifying this!! netflix really should explain the rules of what's going on a bit better instead of assuming everyone knows them. it's hard for people like me who are really knew to the sport, trying to understand the intricacies of what's going on and who's in the wrong in most cases.
i kind of understand why they're not showing some things since the format with focusing on particular teams is a bit limiting IMHO. but seeing the drivers' union, the issues with penalties, actually what's going on behind the scenes in terms of racing is definitely more interesting than whatever rivalries they're making the show about. it's almost like they forgot how important the rules and regulations are in the rivalries they're trying to show, therefore telling only half the story.
i've been into f1 for not even two weeks and i'm already pissed off at DTS a) not being accurate to the truth and showing the whole picture, and b) trying to be a KUWTK rather than an actual documentary.
now i want to know more about the brasil weekend lol i'll have to look it up later
