Ryoshu and Rodya friendship where they sometimes sleep in each other's room when it gets too much in theirs.
When the candlelight in Ryoshu's gets too bright and suffocating with the heat and reminds her too much of the fire her daughter died in sometimes she knocks (more of. just letting herself in lmao) on Rodya's door to literally cool off.
Sometimes when Rodya's room freezes her down to the bone to the point where that she can't sleep, and the stench and sight of her dead neighbors haunts her every senses, Ryoshu gets a quiet knock on her door, and an even more surprising, a solemnly quiet Rodya outside, asking her if she can take a quick snooze here because she doesn't wanna go out and do the night watch.
Something something the only bed worth sleeping is the one right next to you (sad). Fire and ice duo. you get me riht

I think one thing I will say about the finale was that the most problematic aspect of the concept of the show was how it feels like they had to use the Fionna and Cake plot to Trojan horse a resolution to a swathe of loose ends Simon and Betty's arcs had. They pulled it off even better than I ever wanted to let myself hope for for the most part but I would say my main issue if anything was how cramped the finale felt when I think they could have left a lot more up to season 2 speculations (especially with the resolutions for the alt universes, they didn't really feel necessary when they basically just had to egg Scarab).
I feel I liked the understated melancholies of seeing Simon recontextualized and kinda infantilized in that temporary form hosting his mind, and some people have said the Casper and Nova thing felt hamfisted but I thought the vibes were too cute to care that it wasn't particularly "efficient" as far as metaphors go, but that does slow down the pace which probably crunched the ending a little harder :'). But it also worked in further showing the sad side-effect of the crown on Simon's relationships, including that of stunting his ability to have ever matured in his understandings of love and his relationship with Betty. I also think their last scene in the memory worked because it was Simon reconsidering how he viewed their relationship for the first time, even if his attempt to do for Betty what she did for him would have just been an inversion of their original flaw, the scene rests on them understanding it's unchangeable anyway, so that decision doesn't matter so much and it's not something for Simon to dwell on.
I also feel I liked the scene a lot in spite of how scarce it felt in the finale was because of what was most conspicuously unaddressed, which was just the sheer logistical impossibility of any different choices they made having possibly been any "better." It sticks out because Betty says they could have made better choices, which kinda seems to situate their relationship in a vacuum as if there wasn't a very high likelihood had they done anything different at that crossroads, they would have just been literally nuked into orbit regardless. Sure, it seems like enough time had passed for them to have worked out their relationship better at least and then died, but that kinda seems better by an arbitrarily less tragic amount, and really it seems the least tragic possibilities ever were either that they conceive their relationship more healthily, Simon finds the crown and protects Betty from exploding somehow and also doesn't warp her to the future, and they live some terrible survival life but at least they get a chance to live something kinda fulfilling and Betty probably would have taken care of Ice King decently for the remainder of her life once Simon was gone while also having a better understanding of what had happened to him. The only other hand would be that she also was still warped to the future he finds the crown but Simon had not enabled her self-sacrificial tendencies and so she becomes less undividedly obsessed with saving him and instead integrates into Ooo more properly and also accepts what had become of him (I find it hard to think she would have just let him die either way though lmao).
That all said, they had been around a long time to have reflected over everything. I think it is a bit of an issue that they don't really allude to that, but I find it easy to believe that they did recognize how thwarted a happy ending would ever be for them by all angles of their reality, yet they still had that tender ache of that simple and small tragedy just between them two that still exists within the torrent of catastrophe that engulfed them and the breadth of their fate. So much horror in their lives but they reconnect and find themselves primarily concerned with that last regret of not having been able to make the ideal relationship they quite thought they had.

Steddie headcanons
Just a little thing while i work on my first fic
- Eddie probably makes his own like, bracelets and other similar wrist accessories (wraps i think they’re called) to have something to fidget with
- Steve loves to cook and is good at it, and likes baking but can only use packet mixes or help other people without it turning into a disaster (baking is a difficult art, much more difficult than cooking)
- Steve wasn’t really a big fan of metal music at first but came to love it through listening to it with Eddie
- Sometimes the Party + Eddie will drag Steve along to Hellfire Club and he’ll sit and watch, and while he calls it a ‘nerd game’ and denys enjoying it, it’s obvious how invested into the stories and action he is just from watching him watch them play
- Steve has a major sweet tooth, while Eddie prefers savoury food
- Steve was completely oblivious to Eddie’s crush on him, while Eddie was fully aware of Steve’s and used that knowledge to his advantage, but somehow Steve was oblivious to the idea Eddie was actually flirting and just thought the universe was torturing him
- Not a Steddie headcanon, but, Steve and Robin have sleepover movie nights (occasionally the whole group will, but Steve and Robin have like, a girls night, Steve will never admit it but he lets Robin paint his nails because he likes the pretty colours)
- Both Eddie and Steve are autistic, but Steve masks a lot
- Steve still has no idea what he wants his full time career to be, for now he’s content working in the video shop with Robin
- Eddie potentially wants to write some sort of fantasy novel
- Steve loves playing with Eddie’s hair, and running his hands through it when they kiss
- Eddie has ear piercings
- Eddie loves coffee, and Steve enjoys the taste but is very sensitive to caffiene so shouldn’t really have it because if he has it there’s a 50/50 chance he ends up having a caffiene crash + panic attack
- Eddie can’t cook, but will put on music and keep Steve company while he cooks
- If they lived in the modern day/had the resources to know what it was, both of them would likely be some form of nonbinary

I started watching Spy X Family and I didn't realize it was gonna be so fucking cute.
Fake dating/married is one of my favourite tropes ever. And I loved Mr and Mrs Smith. So this is right up my alley however.
I can just tell it's gonna be an extremely slow burn romance and I'm already dying. Loid and Yor are so flipping cute.
The JJK chokehold remains but now we get to add some slow burn, pining, and unrequited (but actually not) feelings (at least I'm assuming. It feels like that kind of prolonged misunderstanding).
Bring it.

I knew there is something familiar about the healing. You are inspired by the best romance novel ever written, no wonder it scene in your fic is so amazing.
It is so nice, even though Wangxian and MDZS is nowhere near the galaxy level of Twilight Saga and Edward/Bella ethereal story when it comes to loves, devotion, sacrifice and well-written book with the best characters' development.
I wish MXTX will learn one or two things from Twilight Saga because her writing desperately needs some improvement. I read the second book of Heaven Official Blessing and cringed so bad at it I can't even finish it.

Me, trying to put my cousins to bed and the book didn't work: why don't you just close your eyes and pretend you are in a cuddle pile?
7 yr old: can we pretend its a clone cuddle pile?
me: mhm! You might only be able to squeeze two in bed with you...so who?
7 yr old: mmmmmmm Fox!
me: Fox?!
5 yr old: NOT AHSOKA?!
7 yr old: she's not a clone
5 yr old: oh yeah...
me: who else?
7 yr old: OH I KNOW! Wolffe!
me: Fox and Wolffe?
7 yr old: yup! They're my favourites
me: really?
7 yr old, just furiously nodding
me: alright, what about you
5 yr old: mmmmm Fives and Echo! (read Ektoe lol)
me: wow, you're gonna get such big, tight hugs while you sleep
5 yr old: I know! That's why I picked them!
me: alright, so close your eyes and dream up some big sleepy cuddles and fall asleep
7 yr old: i'm gonna dream handing Fox chocolates too
me: ...okay sure just go to sleep now though
Still waiting for them to pass the hell out...but they're quiet if nothing else 🤣🤣🤣
