Hi, I'm the anon who asked if you were okay with all of this chaos. I have many things to say!
First off, your many thank yous made me very very (two verys) happy. So thank YOU.
Second, you absolutely deserve all of the attention you're getting. You're seriously an incredible artist, and I love the fact that a lot of your art is on paper. I especially love how Donnie looks in your style (which is funny, because I remember you saying that you DIDN'T like it). Ahem. Getting off track a bit there. Anyways. You're an incredible artist, and all of the attention is well earned, AND it's okay to feel overwhelmed. I hope you know that we don't expect you to answer everything right away. You're popular, and lots of people are asking you to do things. You can choose to not do something, and you SHOULD. Do what inspires you, and we'll love it!
Third, and hopefully finally. I play with character AIs a lot, just to kind of see how characters would react to certain things. I AM an author, and I can imagine these things myself, but I like seeing it from external sources more. It almost seems more believable. When a human comes up with it, it just feels more raw and expressive. Or something. I have no clue what I'm saying; hopefully it's not too muddled. Then, when someone DRAWS it. It's a thousand times better. I just love it so much!
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I love how we can give you prompts and questions, and you'll go somewhere amazing with it. I loved the thing with Leo, Donnie, and the coffee. My thanks goes out to you and the asker. It's a huge gift to us when you respond. Literally, it's like a present, I love it.
So, just to clarify because I'm paranoid and words don't really work sometimes, are you okay with super random prompt-asks? Like earlier I saw a post where so-and-so asked so-and-so what the turtles night-time routines would be. Stuff like that?
Thank you so much for everything you do for us! You're amazing, and we all appreciate you.
OH.MI.GOSH??!!!?!
Wah-
Thank you so much!!! Gah- I hope I can articulate an even somewhat intelligent response to literally ALL of this. Okay!
|
First off, I see what you did there and I frickin’ loved it ohmigosh best response ever!! 🙌✨
Secondly, I really really appreciate all your kind words. You seriously had me smiling the whole way through oh stars you’re too kind 🥹 Also, I’m very glad there are some of y’all out there that like the way I draw Donnie…especially traditionally, cuz I won’t lie…I get a bit over-critical of how I draw him hehe. Glossing over that teehee~ But seriously, I also really appreciate your respect of my time cuz I feel much less pressured and more seen as just a lil human doing art things, so thank you! 🌟
And lastly, I totally understand ya and I couldn’t agree more. It’s honestly better when I see other artists capture emotions cuz I just eat that up aaughh yes!! Ahem..I just hope that I can capture at least some emotional accuracy in my art, especially considering how dialogue is not my strong suit by a long shot hehe…
Awwwee! Thank you so much!! It was really fun sketching a silly lil moment like that, so I couldn’t be more grateful for the idea that inspired me 🤗
And finally, that’s where it gets complicated cuz…it’s honestly just complicated for me and my lil gremlin brain. I really do enjoy answering lil prompts and putting my own spin on them, but I can’t make it like…an official thing…? If that makes any sense. Like, I think I’ve seen a few artists on Tumblr put out a post for prompt asks, but that idea, for me, makes me very nervous. I naturally try not to think too much while I draw, I just feel my emotions, really. I dunno…maybe that’s a lame excuse gah..- but, as it stands, for now, I’m ~okay~ with answering the occasional prompt ask, but I won’t be making a post about it or anything. I’m just a little um..paranoid..?..after the whole spontaneous sticker war thing heh…
One last big thank you to you, anon 🙌🙌 I seriously appreciate it so much 💙✨

This one was slightly tricky to write and I spent several days just writing dialogue whenever I was able to lol. Oh well, it's still something I'm proud of.
By the way, I think I'm going to call this "Have Some Empathy, Dear" and I have already started posting it on AO3. Some of you have already found it lol! There's additional lore bits that I'll probably post over there if you're curious.
CW: Not sure if this is needed, but there is some mentions of toxic family dynamics in this chapter. Classic family favorites one child over the other and makes negative comments about them as well.

First Day & Next Day.
Bad Sansuary: Horror - Romance
Word Count: 2,087
You'd seen Axe a few times ever since the day you met him in the forest. Somehow, he'd figured out where you lived but had completely dodged the question when you asked how. You kind of just let it go after that as it was nice hanging out with someone after a long day of work.
Yeah, a smart person would've avoided the obvious red flags... Not that you weren't smart, maybe just selectively blind.
He seemed to be a genuinely nice guy, despite the mildly unsettling habits he had, like the fact that he tended to stare at you for long periods of time. It was like he had scary dog energy but without all of the bite, at least towards you anyways.
Today was a you day. No errands that needed to be run, no one requiring you to be at work, and no chores to do around the house. It was just you and the latest episode of your favorite historical romance show. The last episode had ended on a cliffhanger and you were dying to see if Madam Fratchurine accepted Duke Von Gossimer's proposal or not.
You were only halfway through the episode, without a clear answer to the 'Will they, won't they?' question, when a sharp knocking sounded on your front door. Pausing the episode with a frown, you emerged from your blanket cocoon to see who was outside.
Taking a peek through the peephole, your mild annoyance quickly evaporated when you recognized the person on the other side. Barely sparing a thought on how presentable you were, you unlocked and swung open the door to greet them.
"Axe! Um, hi! I, uh, didn't expect to see you today..."
He quirked a bonebrow when you nearly stumbled over your words and his smile morphed into one of mild amusement. You could feel how warm your cheeks had grown all of the sudden and glanced down at your socks.
Clearing your throat, you tried to start over. "Sorry, why don't you come in? Although I should warn you that I've been relaxing all day so the apartment might be a bit messy." You moved to the side so he could step over the threshold rather than remain standing awkwardly outside your door.
Axe chuckled and his eyelight briefly flicked past you into the hallway. " 's no problem, i didn't let you know beforehand. sorry about that..." he responded. He nearly had to duck his skull in order to come inside but thankfully the doorframe was still a few inches taller than he was.
You gathered up the fuzzy blanket you'd been snuggling in and quickly folded it up to make the room slightly less messy. While you were at it, you straightened the sofa cushions and deposited your blanket on the coffee table for now.
"heh, i didn't think you'd be the type to watch sappy stuff like this," Axe commented.
"Huh?" You glanced over and realized he'd noticed the still paused episode. "Ah, well... It's a bit of a...guilty pleasure of mine."
He glanced at you out of the corner of his left eye socket with a look that seemed to suggest amusement. You flushed and quickly looked away from him.
"I suppose you could say I'm a bit of a hopeless romantic..." you muttered. "The idea of finding your one and only? It was just a thing I fixated on when I was younger I guess."
"nothin' wrong with that," Axe said quietly. "a lot of folks look forward to meetin' someone special like that. soulmates or somethin'... i don't really care, but i suppose it would be nice. i'm sure it would all work out though."
You nodded slowly, "I guess so... Honestly, I kind of envy how carefree you are about it."
"well, i'm not in a hurry to settle down right now," he responded with a shrug.
He was right in a way. There was no hurry to find someone and you could always focus on your career in the meantime. Although growing up, there was always the pressure to find someone quickly so you could be taken care of and give your parents a couple of grandchildren. It was "The least you could do," your mother had said.
Of course, you'd then struggled with a string of bad relationships ever since getting out of high school. Not only had you gotten attached really fast whenever a guy ever showed you any modicum of attention, but you also weren't great at standing up for yourself. Your relationships never lasted longer than a few months and while you'd since learned what mistakes not to make, you were starting to wonder if you should swear off dating altogether.
"so, uh, other than shows like this," Axe motioned to the tv, bringing you out of your thoughts again. "what else do ya like to do?"
"Well, I read occasionally and have a small collection of fantasy type books. I used to be part of my school's chess club but I haven't actually had anyone to play against in a while."
You glanced around the living room before your gaze focused on two of your plants on the window sill. "Oh, I try to keep a few plants alive but I don't think I have much of a green thumb. I also like to press flowers or colourful leaves in the fall. They make some pretty collages but I have to make time to actually put them all together."
He nodded approvingly and studied the plants for a moment. "What kind are they?" he asked.
You pursed your lips in thought while you tried to remember. "The one on the left is a yellow Cala Lilly and I think the other is called a Christmas Cactus although it hasn't bloomed since last year. I'm not sure why as it has sun and I haven't forgotten to water it." You shrugged and added, "It's otherwise thriving so I guess I'm doing something right."
"can't say i'm familiar with either of those types so i can't give ya any advice," Axe hummed softly. "i'm more familiar with the kinds of plants ya can cook with, like vegetables or herbs."
"Do you like to cook then?" you asked.
"i do," he answered with a slight nod. "it's somethin' i just really enjoy doin' i guess..." His singular eyelight was still focused on the plants by your window as he trailed off.
When he didn't elaborate further, you couldn't help but feel a bit awkward. His tone of voice seemed to hint at a deeper meaning to what he'd said and you didn't know if you should ask or not.
So, rather than potentially making things more awkward, you decided not to ask and instead to talk about something else. "You know, I like cooking as well. Although, I really only cook for myself so I have limited experience."
Well that certainly seemed to make him perk up. Axe turned to actually look at you and his eyelight flicked over you in a way that you thought was him sizing you up.
"limited experience or not, it's still an important skill to know. did ya teach yourself or...?"
You shook your head, "No, at least not completely... I learned the basics from my mother but everything else I had to learn through good ol' trial and error." You rubbed the back of your neck and quietly added, "Granted, it was mostly by error..."
Axe let out a short chuckle at that. There was clear amusement written across his skull once again, yet it didn't feel like he was making fun of you.
"that's good, sometimes the best way to learn is to actually try your hand at somethin'. or at least it's the best way i know to figure things out." He lightly scratched the right side of his skull, although you noticed how his phalanges nearly hooked into the empty socket as he did so.
"Maybe we could cook something together sometime then...?" you asked.
To your surprise, he nodded vigorously and his permanent grin quirked wider at the idea. "sure, that could be fun. 's not every day i have the chance to cook with others."
"Awesome!" you exclaimed and gave a bit of a victory fist pump. Axe chuckled again although it was more natural sounding this time, like he hadn't expected you to react with this much enthusiasm.
This conversation made you remember something all of the sudden that you had to share. "You know what's funny? One of the things my mother used to always tell me was, and I quote, 'You gotta find a man who can at least cook because you certainly can't!'" With an awkward chuckle, you added, "In hindsight though, I realize she wasn't actually joking..."
That had been a bad thing to say apparently. His expression flickered between discomfort and concern before settling on a slight frown. You could feel a familiar pit form in your stomach as you realized that you'd basically stuck your foot in your mouth.
Axe let out a heavy sigh through his nasal bone and couldn't seem to meet your gaze all of the sudden. He shifted his weight from one foot to the other before finally muttering a response.
"your mother probably didn't have a guy who could pass for a slasher villian in mind..."
You felt bad for saying something so forward in the first place as it had clearly made him uncomfortable. So you resorted to damage control in an effort to ease tensions once again.
"Well, uh... I guess you're right... She also told me that drinking coffee stunts your growth, which I know isn't true now, but it still frustrated me when I was younger."
Well that got him to chuckle at least. He patted your shoulder in a way that was probably supposed to be reassuring, although it did feel slightly patronising seeing as how tall he was.
"are ya sure that isn't true?" he asked in a tone that sounded like it was supposed to be sassy, although his deep voice did just the opposite.
You crossed your arms and huffed in annoyance. "It isn't! I don't even drink that much coffee compared to other people..."
"what other things did she tell you? any other gems?"
You frowned and shook your head. "Nothing very helpful... She used to be obsessed with my weight growing up and never kept any snacks in the house. If I ever mentioned I was hungry, she'd just tell me to go eat a handful of almonds or something."
You sighed and dropped onto the couch. Steepling your chin with your hands, you tried to take deep breaths to avoid getting all worked up over what had happened in the past. You felt bad that you'd nearly just dumped a bunch of your own trauma on Axe when he was basically a complete stranger.
The cushions shifted as he sat down next to you. You glanced over at him and rather than annoyance like you'd expected, he looked slightly concerned. You very rarely talked to anyone about your childhood as they never understood and brushed off your mother's rules as well-meaning. He didn't seem to be like any of the others though and you started to wonder if he actually understood you.
"I'm...not on good terms with my family...in general," you muttered.
He seemed surprised if the way his left eye socket widened was any indication. "how come?" he asked quietly. "family's pretty important, at least to me anyways..."
You shook your head slowly. "I really don't want to get into all of it right now... But, the short of it is my mother was basically what some people call an almond mom and my older sister was seen as the golden child. I was basically dirt in comparison to her and my entire family favorited her."
"i don't really understand..." Your heart sank but Axe continued speaking before you could try to explain. "but i can tell this is a sore spot for ya, so i won't push ya to explain anythin' else, okay?"
You gave him a stiff smile out of sheer relief. "I appreciate it..." you responded with a sigh.
In an attempt to talk about something lighter, you tried to change to subject. "Do you have any family?" you asked.
His skull visibly brightened, somehow, at your question and he grinned warmly. "yep, i got a younger brother and he's the coolest dude i know..."

Keefe (for bingo)
AHELDHKAUSHDKJAAHJSSHAKSBDKHSKSDSHAJAHDLDUSBSKSJSHALSHDHSKA
Tumblr media
OK I CONTRADICTED MYSELF A LOT SO LET ME EXPLAIN
this is my favorite character of all time in any media, right up there with Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars, Nicholas & Nathaniel Benedict from TMBS (showverse) and Lancelot from bbc Merlin. Actually probably slightly above all those characters which is SAYING SOMETHING.
Is he comic relief? Yes.
Would I be his friend? Yes.
Has he done nothing wrong? Yes!! No he’s done many things wrong he’s so precious to me ok but the law he’s broken the law I love him so much he literally betrayed his friends I will always love him he has sooo much to answer for I’m glad Sophie forgives him after she chews him out she should chew him out longer but I suppose Fitz does that for her He has so many apologies to make but like he’s also done nothing wrong look I’m aware of my blorbo’s mistakes he’s honestly not as problematic as the tumblr fandom makes him out to be sometimes, and I MEAN that, but he’s also not as perfect and sweet as the eleven year olds on Wattpad make him out to be. He’s a LOT okay, you can’t analyze Keefe Sencen without the everything
Are my opinions unpopular? Yep! The other keefe girlies hate my opinions bc I acknowledge his character flaws and the Keefe haters hate my opinions bc I acknowledge the fact that he’s NOT an antagonist and actually has a lot of really good traits, and that’s NOT me making excuses. Also what are y’all on about saying he doesn’t get held accountable for his actions, like yeah Sophie forgives him pretty fast but not until she’s yelled at him, and the rest of his friends do NOT bounce back to normal (Fitz)
Do I relate to him? Yes, unfortunately. I have Fitz’s trauma and Keefe’s coping mechanisms (they aren’t good coping mechanisms but they’re literally mine)
Is the fandom wrong about him? Yes, the Keefe fans and Keefe haters alike. Don’t flatten this guy there’s SO MUCH THERE. (I’m not talking about my Keefe-negative mutuals—if I follow you, you didn’t flatten his character, I am very serious about Keefe Sencen)
Do I want to adopt him? YES I mean I’m literally his age but if I was old enough to adopt him I totally would, get that kid away from Cassius Sencen and kill Gisela Sencen. Honestly tho I’d settle for an Elwin adoption, dad!Elwin rocks
Did he need less screen time? *sighs in resigned Keefe fan* probably…objectively…yes…
Did canon do him dirty? I debated filling in this one. Because Shannon has made him a SUPER complex character. But also I swear if the ending of stellarlune isn’t the last time he steals something from Sophie to carry out a reckless plan he told no one about, I’ll riot. Don’t give him forward character progress and then erase it! If it’s a momentary relapse of bad habits I’ll allow it but I’m starting to want Shannon to let Keefe grow from all of that. Cause she keeps letting him get better—and then slip back. (Which isn’t unrealistic and I can work with!! I love him! But SHANNON PLEASE)
Do I want to study him? I want to get a full on PhD in this guy’s character arc actually
Did he need more screen time? Heh. Uh. Objectively NO. But also this amount of page time has allowed us to learn so much about his character complexities?? Like I’m torn between missing the other characters and eating up his character arc. Currently I’m gonna hope book 10 expands the other characters more bc I need more of them and 9.5 can feed my Keefe brain
Would I hit him with a golf cart? Listen my friend made this bingo game (hi Bods, if you’re reading this) and I know exactly what the actual intention was behind this square. But like. I want to slightly run into him with a golf cart. Just enough to slightly injure him and make him rethink his life choices (affectionate) (actually in the words of@phtalogreenpoison “I’d like to microwave Keefe. Just shortly”)
Does he need therapy? OH MY GOSH YES. I have thought this about other characters but SPECIFICALLY KEEFE HOLY GUACAMOLE GET THAT GUY THERAPY
Is he insane? Define insane. But I love him anyway (what is going on in his head half the time 😭)
Am I rotating him in my head 24/7? WELL YOU’VE READ THE POST WHAT DO YOU THINK
Do I have so many headcanons? Oh you guys don’t know the half of it. I have. So. Many. SO MANY
Is he wasted potential? Uhhhh I have too many thoughts on this to actually put it on this post. Genuinely love what Shannon’s doing with his character, like I said. But at some point she needs to. Address the things. Or he just becomes a guy with all these complications introduced that just kinda sit there and continue to change and grow and Keefe is the complex character to end all complex characters but Shannon you need to DO SOMETHING WITH THE MASTERPIECE OF A CHARACTER THAT YOU HAVE CREATED
The amount of bingos holy moly
Anyway
Keefe means a lot to me
Thanks for the ask anon!

"You are in a relationship with some of the servants, correct?"
"... Is that actually a question? Director Goredolf, I know it may sounds hard to believe, but I don't normally go around and kiss random people."
"No, that- that was rhetorical. I am well aware that you- I mean- I do remember that time you summoned Mordred in China, yes."
"What's the matter, then? They're all aware that I only do open relationships, if that's what worries you. They don't mind."
"That is... unorthodox, but really good to hear. The last thing we need is a mutiny over your courting habits."
"Heh, I assure you they'll find other reasons to kickstart a mutiny. These people love chaos like you wouldn't believe. They're great."
"... Do you think this is wise?"
"I mean, I'm not exactly in control of the gudagudas. At this point they're more of a natural phenomenon, really."
"No, I mean... forming a romantic relationship with a servant. Do you think it wise? They're... they're familiars. They're ghosts. By nature, they are transient beings. When all of this is over, they will have to go. Are you not afraid of what will happen then?"
"... Do you think it will hurt any less, if they die as friends rather than lovers? Do you think being ignorant of their lips on mine will make me immune to grief? Do you think people do not mourn their friends, Director Goredolf? Their brothers, their daughters?"
"I didn't mean- I don't-"
"... I know. I'm sorry. That was harsh of me. What I mean to say is... it's too late to spare myself the pain by now. We've been working together for years. One way or another, we're already attached. If it will hurt no matter what we do, might as well make the most of it, don't you think?"
"... Yes, that makes sense. I... apologize for my thoughtless wording."
"It's alright, I get where you're coming from. Really though, you should just ask your crush out without worrying about any of that."
"I'm sorry?? I don't- Where is that coming from??"
"Oh? I thought you were asking because you were worried about your own relationship. I've heard some really interesting gossip recently-"
"I do not have a crush on anybody! I don't- I'm- I'm thirty-four for god's sake, I'm not some little schoolboy-"
"Right, right! Of course! My bad, my bad. Completely unrelated, but what do you think of animal ears? I think they're kinda cute-"
"That's it, I'm leaving. I will not listen to any more of this."
"Haha, say hi to Caeneus for me on the way out! Haha... ha... ah, he's sweet, Director Goredolf. ... I don't know how to tell him that my body is already starting to fall apart. I don't know how to tell him that there won't be much of an after for me."

Liam Evans Main Story: Chapter 0
Tumblr media
I do not own any of the Ikemen Series content being uploaded on this blog, everything belongs to CYBIRD. Please support them by downloading and playing their games.
read this before interacting with my posts
warning: mention of suicide attempt
Episode 0 contains major spoilers for Liam’s main story. Please proceed at your own discretion if you have yet to read the main story.
Liam Evans, stage actor. That’s my job.
On tonight’s stage as well, I will leave “myself” behind and play my role.
Tumblr media
Liam: Thank you for coming to our play tonight!
I have another job.
That is—
I’m a member of “Crown”, an imperial organisation under the direct command of Queen Victoria.
Victor: Well then— are you ready, gentlemen?
Liam: Of course, Victor. It's been a long time since we last went on a mission together. How exciting.
I changed my clothes immediately after my performance ended, and went from being Liam the stage actor, to being Liam the member of Crown.
Harrison: Calm down a little. Getting too carried away will only result in you being hurt.
Roger: I mean, I can patch you up if it's not a serious injury. But if you die, that just means I have one less person to help me with my research.
Liam: Thanks, Roger. As expected of a former doctor.
It was rare for every member of Crown to be present, and everyone was chatting away.
We’ve never once collectively agreed on anything, but neither do we intend to ever do that. Because that’s what makes us Crown.
William: — Looks like Crown is ready, Victor.
Victor: Ahaha! Good. You lot are so carefree and wonderful as always. Well then, shall we begin?
Victor: Tonight — we pledge ourselves to evil.
(Heh, our target for tonight is loaded.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Amongst the townhouses that lined the streets, it seemed like our target lived in an especially luxurious mansion.
(Even when you have that much money, it’s so easy for your life to come to an end.)
For caution’s sake, my partner Harry and I were to trespass into the mansion 5 minutes later than the others.
Tumblr media
(4 more minutes.)
However, it was a bad habit of mine to be unable to keep quiet during times like this—
Liam: … By the way, how did you join Crown, Harry?
Harrison: Of all times, you’re asking me that now?
Liam: I’m kind of bored, so…
Harrison: Weren’t you there when I first joined Crown?
Liam: “I’m not interested in the prosperity of England and other people's freedom. But—”
Liam: “I’m interested in what you guys are doing, therefore you should let me become one of your members.” … Right?
Harrison: Since you remember, then don't ask. That’s all I said to join Crown.
(You still don’t talk a lot.)
I deliberately shrugged my shoulders in an exaggerated manner to show that I wasn't satisfied with his answer.
My partner was the kind of person to give bothersome answers in times like this.
Harrison: I get to use my curse to earn money. Moreover, I have Her Majesty the Queen backing me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Harrison: It’s a wise choice for people born with curses to join Crown for survival.
Liam: …
Liam: … Even if you have to kill?
Harrison: Everyone has the right to different opinions on whether it’s a wise choice.
(I take it as he doesn't want me to probe any further.)
Everyone had their own reasons for joining Crown.
But I know one thing for sure, and it's that I wouldn't be in Crown if it wasn't for “something”.
Harrison: Hey, Liam. Why did you join Crown?
Liam: I…
(The reason why I joined Crown…)
I was once admitted into a mental hospital for a certain reason.
White, empty walls. Uncomfortable examination clothes. Painful treatments that had no effect.
— There was no knowing when I would be released from that place.
I didn't know whether I even wanted to leave.
One day, I leaned out of the hospital’s window feeling absentminded and lethargic.
Suddenly, someone grabbed me from behind.
Tumblr media
Victor: With your hands stretched out like that, you look like a bird. Unfortunately, humans don’t have wings.
Victor: So if you fall… yeah.
Victor: Since you’re feeling lost, I have a suggestion for you. What do you think about using your life to serve Her Majesty?
Liam: … Her Majesty?
Victor: I’m currently on the search for members to join an organisation that carries out missions under secret orders from Her Majesty.
Victor: The organisation is a group of people who “fight evil with evil”.
Victor: So I’m here to ask if you're interested in joining. I guess you could say that I’m some sort of scout.
Liam: … Why me?
Victor: The first reason is because you have a curse. And the second reason is— I want you to release the dark side of you.
Victor: Then you will be free to fly around in the pitch black darkness.
Victor: I’m just kidding. Hey, hey, didn't I look cool saying that? Ahaha, this is fun!
There was something off about the words and actions of the man with beautiful eyes and long hair.
But I wasn't any more normal than him either.
There was only one reason why I decided to join Crown.
And it was that someone reached their hand out to me.
Victor: Now — pledge your allegiance to evil. Nice to meet you, Liam Evans.
(But I can't possibly tell others that my reason for joining Crown is that small.)
My reason felt too insignificant.
Liam: Hmm… I forgot!
Harrison: Oh well, it's not like I was interested in finding out. Anyway, 5 minutes is up. Let’s go.
Liam: Ah, wait! Maybe it was just because I liked you.
My partner’s special ability enables him to know when someone’s lying. He definitely saw through my lie.
But I was grateful that he didn't expose me for lying.
Liam: Ah, I’ll make myself disappear just in case.
Harrison: No one will be able to recognise you this way. How very convenient.
Liam: I know right?
I used my abilities to disappear and followed after Harry.
My reason for joining Crown was unclear.
The fact that I was a stage actor wasn't worth praising either.
As long as I’m useful, they won't get rid of me.
(There’s one thing I can never tell anyone.)
And it was my special ability to disappear.
I wanted to erase myself from existence.
But the words of “that person” who died saving me from that fire were the only thing keeping me alive.
I was confined to this world.
By the time we entered the mansion, the interrogation process had already ended.
After scanning my surroundings, I made myself reappear.
Liam: By any chance, is it our turn yet?
Will’s fingers danced across the piano in the mansion.
(I wonder what song this is? I’ll ask Will about it later.)
Will narrowed his blood red eyes sharply.
(Ah, he’s going to use his special ability.)
He used his ability to “make others obey his every command” and sang along with the tune playing on the piano.
An anguished look appeared on the target’s face as he held a knife to his own neck—
Kate: Um… excuse m—
Kate: — mmph!?
A girl stood next to the man who died because he was controlled by Will's special ability.
(This girl…)
The blood that spurted out soaked her pretty face.
(Is she involved in tonight's mission? This wasn't written in the protocol, though.)
Alfons: My, my… I wasn’t expecting an audience tonight.
William: Now look who we have here, aren't you the little robin I met earlier today?
Kate: Um…uh… eeh…?
(Huh?)
Liam: She’s acquaintances with Will? Does she know about us?
If she was an acquaintance of Will’s and meant to be there, then —
I thought to myself, “she’s safe”.
Because if anyone were to find out about Crown’s secret, they would be silenced.
William: We merely exchanged a few words on the streets, Liam. She doesn't know about ‘Crown’.
(Does that mean that they don't actually know each other, and she’s here by pure coincidence?)
(Wow, she’s one very unlucky girl.)
I suddenly made eye contact with her.
Her eyes were filled with fear and anxiety, it made me feel sorry for her.
Liam: Then we’re in trouble. What should we do…?
I stared into her eyes and a thought surfaced in a corner of my mind.
I was always looking for an excuse to disappear.
So I needed a reason to remain in this world.
Therefore, while playing my role as a stage actor, I condemned evil as a member of Crown.

HI I DON’T WANT TO PUT ALL OF THE EMOJIS BUT I WANT TO KNOW ALL OF THEM FOR YOUR ASK GAME THX 🤝
MY DEAREST SAINT ty for giving me the space to be mentally ill about my beloved(s)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i’m answering these for clive since i’m the most mentally ill about him right now 👁️👁️
answers will be under the cut due to length (and some embarrassment)
🥺: how long have you two been together?
about four to five years or so
❤️: any talk of marriage?
not in any official capacity. though vows may have been whispered to each other on a particularly romantic evening. our souls are both intertwined for the rest of eternity ^_^
🕊️: any pets?
TORGAL!!!!!!! the most loyal and fluffy hound in all of valisthea. so warm and cuddly. such a good boy. i enjoy feeding him lots of treats. clive’s heart always aches seeing the two of us snuggled up together napping.
i also have a habit of caring for any strays that wander about
🫂: do you two live together?
yes!
💌: if yes to the last question - how long?
technically we’ve been living in the same place together since he arrived to the hideaway but we didn’t start sharing chambers together til a short while after we starting dating.
💭: where did you two meet?
the infirmary 😭 i was working as an apprentice under tarja at the time and aided in tending to jill when cid brought her in.
after completing my training i started going on assignments as a healer and would often join clive n co. 😌
🥰: have you met their family? have they met yours?
i have!!! i’ve met joshua, jill, his uncle and his mother (unfortunately). did not get to meet his father before his passing, sadly (RIP TO A DILF 😔)
i simply do not have living family in most of my selfships 😭😭 so he has not met any of my relatives
😜: who is the silly one who jokes and laughs a lot?
definitely me 😔 it’s always 50/50 on whether my jokes hit or not.
clive is funny but it’s always unintentional (whereas i’ll put in effort to make people laugh) he’ll do or say something and get a giggle out of me and be like ???
😯: have you two ever taken a road trip/vacation?
not intentionally. we’ve traveled lots of places but never for leisure because we’re both such busy bees. if we’re both not out on assignments we’re usually still working. i spend most of my time in the infirmary than not.
that being said, i do make note of all the scenic places we visit to bookmark them for when more peaceful times come. the first place i’d want us to go to together is the sea. i feel the most at peace there.
😠: what’s the worst fight you’ve had?
we both have a habit of running into danger especially when the other’s life is at stake heh heh i’d say the worst outburst was during one particular scare clive gave me with his injuries.
after patching him up i became sort of passive aggressive towards him and when he calls me out on it i kind of blow up about how he can be really reckless sometimes, that i understand the importance of destroying the mother crystals but his safety will always be most important to me (as selfish as it is) and it ends up with me sobbing in his arms crying about how if anything ever happened to him i don’t know if i could go on.
obviously he’s very powerful but i can’t help but worry!!!!!!
navigating our relationship with our joint trauma sure has been interesting 👍
🤑: who has the worst spending habit?
me 😔
clive is a man of necessity for the most part and while i’m not reckless per-say, if i’m out and have the money to buy a little trinket i probably will 😭
❤️‍🔥: how does your love languages differ?
tbh i don’t know which love language of mine is the one that i need most so honestly idk!!! 😭 i am the most greedy for love angel throughout the heavens
imo, clive is big on words of affirmation. gentle reminders that he’s not actually the big bad monster he often thinks he is. just sticking by him throughout everything means a lot.
😽: who likes pda?
we both do! though clive is more reserved than i. i kinda get in fits where i’m overwhelmed with energy and need to melt into him like butter and crawl all over him. there’s no containing me at that point.
though most of the time in public it’s just me holding him from behind or hugs. his embrace is always really comforting and calming and he always indulges me ^_^
though he won’t initiate kisses in front of others cause it makes him embarrassed. i’m always the one pressing a chaste kiss to his lips after finishing up in the dining hall, leaving him in his flustered state with the rest of our dining companions.
🛏️: who stays up late? goes to bed early?
depends on the day tbh. i’m the one who usually tries to go to sleep early, since i love mornings. sometimes we’re both up late working, or plagued with thoughts of the past. i usually fall asleep before he does regardless of what time it is while he keeps a watchful eye over my sleeping form.
😘: any pet names they call you? you call them?
clive and i are both chronic calling each other by their name type people 😭
but in more intimate settings, he’ll call me angel and i’ll let a baby or two slip out
👄: talk about your first or best kiss thus far
first kiss!! first kiss!!!
okay so it wasn’t long before we started dating. he had gotten injured while he was out and had to visit the infirmary. tarja wasn’t in and i was the only one running things. he had a few gashes that needed to be stitched as well as a few abrasions.
after 13 long years of fighting, i was the first gentle and “loving” touch he had. we’d friends for a short while at that point, some mutual pining going on though neither of us were acting on it.
at that point he was still in the mentality of not thinking he was deserving of any kindness due to what happened in his past. so when i come around gently stitching up his and tending to his other wounds, he’s taken aback. plus i may have been chastising him on being more careful cause there’s people around the hideaway (me) who worry for his safety and bla bla bla.
basically he gets overwhelmed with feeling and doesn’t know how to deal with it other than pulling me for a kiss. (mid stitch mind you!!! he was lucky no further damage was caused)
🖼️: who decorates the house?
both our stuff is has a place in our chambers but i’m the one who decides what goes where

Hii huh nim!! How's everything going with your work? It's the end of the year, so I'm curious if you've been productive enough. Did you manage to have some free weekends to go hiking and do some workouts? Taking care of your health, both physically and mentally, is really important. Just like Jae said, mental health matters too. By the way, have you drawn anything recently? How's your progress? And how are the animals you're working with? Do they listen to you well?
Anyway, I just wanted to send this message to appreciate your work on this blog. It's not easy to observe and analyze things, but you're amazing! You've done a great job with everything you've worked on here. I have a lot of respect for you. Seriously, there were times when I eagerly waited for your insights on NCT or Jaedo. Haha! I hope you find happiness and have a future full of success. I also hope you can be even more productive in the future, just the way you want. And if blogging brings you joy, I really hope you can do it forever. Since it's Christmas, I hope you enjoy the holidays and spend some quality time for yourself. Thank you so much for your hard work, and I wish you an advanced Merry Christmas. Keep fighting!
(Ps: I wish to read this blog completely...since it's my exams dont have enough time...pls dont delete it..🙏😄)
Hi, thank you for the kind wishes. I hope your holidays will be festive as well. And good luck with the exams.
I'm never as productive as I'd like to be. I'm a human with low energy levels. Doesn't stop me from doing crazy things, but I require breaks between them.
I draw for work currently, but not for myself. I did start drawing something non-work related as I planned, however, I'm still on the first stage (practice of skills, nothing really creative, just exercises for the eye and the hand). The animals I worked with were wild animals... they never listen, heh.
As for the blog... I've been writing fandom-related blogs for many years, so it's a habit hard to shake off. I do regret from time to time how much of my time it eats up. We are all too used to socmed and spending time on the Internet instead of doing something useful. I won't delete the blog, it continues to serve its initial puprose, but I'm thinking of moderating the questions more.
This year wasn't bad. I visited two new countries and made into reality an old wish of mine. It's still a transitional period, lots of work ahead to achieve the future I want (when it's not...).
Oh, I should be working on a book with my own text and illustrations... I keep postponing it because of the other urgent things (like earning money for rent), but I created this opportunity myself, and I'll be paid as the author and the artist. And I need to finally sit myself on a chair and write a scientific paper I've been running away from for months as well, I should publish the data I've collected... so, lots of projects for 2024 are already in line.

New Zhayu AU
Zhao is a moderately successful podcast host and narrator with a show that straddles history, spiritualism, military practice through the ages, philosophy, and — weirdly — all things astronomical. Not horoscopes, but more of a Farmer’s Almanac approach to lunar phases and how various cultures may have interpreted seasons and calendars according to the night sky.
Yue is a grad student studying politics (?), medicine (?), arctic climate conservation (?) and is recommended the podcast by a friend who admits: “I don’t really know anything about what he talks about, I just find his voice puts me to sleep.”
Stressed from school and naturally interested in at least a few of his talking points, Yue subscribes and turns into an avid listener.
Sorry for the delay in answering!
tbh I don't listen to podcasts myself; never managed to get into them. But I love the idea, especially with the fact Zhao would definitely use a podcast as his outlet to nerd out lmao.
Below is a little something I tinkered with based on the AU hehe:
“No idea who this guy is, but he puts me to sleep – not because he’s boring or anything! Although, heh, okay, fine, I don’t always understand what he’s talking about. He’s into a lot of niche topics. Anyway! I know you’ve been looking for new podcasts, and this guy has a really soothing voice. You’ll know what I mean.”
She’d been curious the first time. Late in the night, having submitted her assignment at 2:32 AM, her fingers aching and her brain in a fog. She was a night owl anyway. But even so, the adrenaline-fuelled wave that had carried her through her mad dash to get her assignment completed hadn’t yet subsided.
Without anything else to do, she’d looked up the podcast her friend had recommended and selected the most recent one. The description had told her it was on the Old Farmer’s Almanac and how it differed from the modern versions. It seemed to be an incredibly dry topic, but Yue had thought to give it a chance when she noticed that the podcast had a surprisingly high following.
It started there. When the host began talking about how the changes in weather patterns could be chalked up to climate change and how the constellations had differed in position since then because of a natural phenomenon called precession, Yue found herself finishing the episode in the blink of an eye before mindlessly scrolling back down and starting from the very first one.
The Knowledge Seeker was what the podcast was called. An apt name, she thought, when the host would discuss topics she’d barely, if ever, given thought to at all. It almost became a game to figure out who this guy was just from listening to his voice and picking apart the topics he’d chosen. He likely had a military background, given the familiar, knowing way he’d spoken about the origins of naval slang, and how the insight he had when talking about past battles was unparalleled.
Over time, she slowly familiarised herself with his speaking habits. The confident drawl of his words, the thoughtful pauses between sentences, the way he enunciated every syllable, forming each word with clarity and precision. He spoke like he was used to speaking to large crowds, the cadence of his voice mesmerising and compelling her to hang onto his every word.
Yue had no idea when or how her obsession started, but the podcast became her solace on bad days, a balm to her weariness, and a release from the stress of studying.
“… animals have long played a role in military settings,” the host was saying in this week’s episode, several months after she had first subscribed. “In fact, and this is a personal story of mine, I suppose I should divulge the meaning behind this podcast’s name.”
Yue straightened up, setting down her pencil. Whoever the host was, he was a reclusive man, rarely letting slip of anything about his personal life.
“When I left the navy, I left with, um, PTSD. About a year after I left, my friend called me and said he was bringing something over to me: a puppy he’d found in a box behind the public library. I was in a bad state at the time and reacted poorly to the news. But, stubborn bastard he is, he brought the dog over and, well, I guess the dog grew on me because he’s still with me now. In fact, he’s currently sitting on my feet because holding me hostage is apparently his favourite way of taking a nap.”
A chuckle, and Yue was not ashamed to admit she’d replayed it several times over.
“His name is Seeker. He’s the cutest fucking thing in the world as well as the most spoilt thing. I suppose the latter is on me. I never learned how to say no when my friend brought him over, and I never managed to learn after that.”
Yue couldn’t help cracking a smile. Somehow, she couldn’t imagine him as a doting pet owner, but here he was, rambling on about his dog’s annoying habits with an obviously fond voice. Eventually, he must’ve realised that he had gone off on a tangent, as he abruptly cleared his throat and returned to discussing messenger birds.
.
She was standing directly behind a man at one of the local coffeeshops, wondering if she should try sneak a photo of his adorable dog. It looked like a Shiba Inu, curled tail wiggling excitedly as it rested its front paws against the counter wall. A red collar was barely visible around its neck, buried by a thick scarf of fur.
Yue really wanted to sink her fingers into that fur.
“Black coffee and a little something for your pupper,” the barista’s voice broke Yue out of her canine reverie as she looked back up just in time to see the man accept his cup of coffee along with a smaller cup filled with whipped cream.
“Thank you.”
His voice was deep, honeyed and warm. There was something familiar about his voice, but Yue couldn’t put her finger on it. Maybe she’d heard it in passing one time on campus. This was a coffeeshop beloved by students, after all. Although, the man did sound like he was older. Maybe a professor?
She didn’t catch any glimpse of his face. Only the slope of broad shoulders, a ramrod straight back, and neatly combed brown hair. But what truly caught her attention was when, as the man stepped out of the coffeeshop, he clicked his fingers at his dog and said –
“Come on, Seeker.”
The world seemed to slow around her as Yue whipped her head back towards the man, craning desperately to see if she could, just for a moment, catch sight of his face. But it was too late. A swarm of students passed by, swallowing up man and dog from view.
Oh, come on.
Yue internally cursed at herself. Figures the one time she did manage to coincidentally stumble upon the elusive podcast host, she failed to recognise his voice despite listening to it almost every night. For who else could it have been? She’d practically engrained his voice into her head, and yet – and yet…
“Coffee’s ready, miss.”
Yue jerked her head up, meeting the friendly gaze of the barista who plonked her sugary concoction onto the counter.
“Oh – thanks,” she stuttered. “Sorry, I was lost in thought.”
The barista winked. “The dog?”
Yue stubbornly denied the heat clawing up her neck. “Yes, the dog.”
“He comes in every Friday afternoon,” the barista said slyly. “Always with his dog. You should say ‘hi’ sometime. He’s grumpy, but he means well.”
“The dog, you mean?” Yue said somewhat drily.
The barista’s smile broadened.
Yue was about to say something else, when, catching sight of the clock on the wall, her heart nearly jolted to a stop.
“Thanks for the drink,” she said hurriedly, snatching her frappe. She had five minutes before class started, and the lecture theatre was on the other side of campus. There was no time to be thinking of cute dogs and cute men right now.
No, not cute men. She didn’t even see his face.
Yue ducked out of the coffeeshop to join the teeming mass of students, picking up the pace as the minutes started ticking down.
And if anyone asked; no, she had not been on the lookout for tall men or fluffy dogs during her sprint across campus.

actual photo of me, mirrored:
Tumblr media
but fr tho my cervical issues are so fucking annoying. they got better after i started wearing braces and fixing my overbite. at least, the nerve area around my ear doesn't get pinched in a way my whole arm gets numb anymore, that's a major progress finally i can play vidya whole day again but other than that, i can literally show this screenshot when asked "how are you doing?" in regards to my neck pain. literally shows every area on my face that is numb, inflamed, tickles, itches, contracts, and hurts all the time. it's so annoying and what i hate about it the most is how it affects my hearing and probably also contributes to the brain fog in one way or another idk high chances that my arteries got pinched too and my brain literally doesn't get enough oxygen, but i still haven't done tests to confirm that
on top of that, a dumb habit that i should cease for good is sitting on my legs up to 10 hours a day because it got to the point that i fucked them up so bad, i ended up constantly pulling them in my sleep and waking up from the pain worse than when i had my bone tissue drilled through with minimal anesthesia. like holy shit i used to be scared of dentists because i considered pain from getting my teeth drilled through the worst, but nope it's not, it's so fucking far from what a stiff body with a lifestyle like mine can go through
on the brighter side, daily yoga seems to be cancelling two decades of my dumbfuckery pretty quickly. more so, i manage to reach spots that i couldn't reach ever in my life before. this actually really excites me, because it shatters the concept of being "too late" for changing things that one was supposed to take care of earlier. i also have been approaching my whole life from a different, more philosophical perspective for last few years and every hardship i go through seems like a challenge these days.
i don't think i'm truly suffering like i used to anymore, at all. i may seem like i do, every time i rant or vent, because on a surface level it looks the same as before. but to me, a really thick, miserable layer of suffering that used to make me feel like i'm poisoned, imprisoned in this existence, locked in my body, forsaken and ultimately defeated, for long years and decades, is gone. venting doesn't make me feel worse, quite the other way round; it makes me feel like i'm embracing hardships, processing them, rather than avoiding, denying, and running away from them. funny how therapy and psychiatry was taking healing away from me this whole time, heh. instead i found it in places that psych-simps told will ruin me. but that's a story for some other day i guess.

For Amelie! When did you discover that the love of your life enjoyed it when you... 'Took control' ?
Heh thanks for asking this @swtorpadawan! Oh also Amarra wants to have a word with you about asking questions like this 🤭 Amélie seems fine with them though
Tumblr media
Amélie doesn't even try to hide her amusement. In fact, she lets out a cackle and shouts to a rapidly retreating figure behind her.
“Hey! My dear, my love, Lord pillow biter! Don’t run! When in your mind do you think it was that I discovered you were as subby as they come?”
She continues to snicker without any remorse as the mighty and respected Wrath makes a tactical retreat from the room.
“Hm... I mean it was pretty much at the start of things. Lady Wrath back there pretty clearly valued the platonic relationship we had but I couldn’t tell if she had any interest in things turning romantic. So, I asked Vette for some advice as she had been with Amarra the longest and knew her best. Turns out, the Wrath has a bad habit of always putting everything and everyone before her own interests. Not too surprising but it meant she was never going to make the first move.”
Rolling her eyes, she chuckles at her wife’s expense.
“Vette told me to just go for it and see what happens. So, I went for it.”
Her expression turns predatory as she grins wickedly.
“I will always cherish that shocked squeak she made when I just kissed her. She stood there frozen for a full five seconds before the confused sputtering started. It was adorable! The big bad Wrath struck dumb by a little affection!”
She lets out another bark of laughter but there is a hint of sadness behind her eyes.
“She really had no idea how to handle someone being interested in her. For most of her life, people have only ever used her for their own ends. She rarely ever had the chance to act for herself let alone had the desire to. So, after she calmed down a bit, we talked. Turns out she was interested but her experience consisted only of a few visits to imperial pro-dommes for some mental release through pain play. It made her worry that her inexperience with sex would be unappealing or taken advantage of, given her position in the Empire.”
Amélie sighs and pinches the bridge of her nose.
“And she wasn’t wrong about those fears either. Lots of people would love to take advantage of the Wrath and others would lose interest or become annoyed at her inexperience.“
“But by that point, we were close enough that she trusted me. We had fought alongside each other and kept each other alive in combat. She put her life in my hands and I placed mine in hers. So, when I told her that I could lead and would do as much or as little as she wanted, she believed me."
A warm smile spreads across her face as she gently thumbs the polished black band on her ring finger.
"Amarra has grown over time and occasionally takes the lead now but more often than not, I'm still the one that takes charge of things. It's a dynamic we are both comfortable with and we don't see that changing anytime soon."

And this one seems pointed 👀 from Drabble List #1, for LB!JK and Sasha:
"I have secrets you don't know about."
🎉
Story: Secret Song Series, sometime after Flux Characters: Jungkook x Sasha Words: 1918 CW: talk about cum and sex, reference to drugs, cursing
.
“I have secrets you don’t know about.”
Jungkook looked up at Sasha’s confession. Her lips were a straight, serious line, her eyebrow arched. 
“Me too,” he said. He was trying to match her serious look but the competition crept in. His tongue poked between his lips and he wiggled his eyebrows.
“Is that supposed to be threatening?” she demanded. “Because honestly, the last time you had secrets–”
His face opened into an instant modest horror, “No! No no not like that!”
“Heh heh,” she chuckled, eyes lowering to the sheet in front of her. 
Sua, eating chips on the couch, looked between the two of them but said nothing. 
Jungkook’s eyes narrowed, “You go first.”
“Sua, you keeping score?” Sasha asked.
“Sure, I guess. Whatever the fuck that means.”
“Who is my celebrity crush?” Sasha asked. 
Jungkook’s gaze stayed narrowed as he studied her face for the answer before suggesting, “Zendaya.” Sasha’s own gaze flickered but he was right and she gave a slight nod. “Mine?”
“IU even though you don’t want to still admit it. Namjoon if you want to try and trip me up.” He snorted at her, crinkling his lips up to make his nostrils bigger. A fucking weirdo.
“Why would he try to trip you up? Isn’t this game collaborative?”
They ignored her.
“Who was my first pet?” Jungkook asked her.
“Gureum. Easy. Mine?”
“Sea monkeys. You named them all ‘Goldie Prawn.’”
Now Sua snorted, choking on her chips, “That’s really good. Are sea monkeys prawns though?”
“I don’t know,” Jungkook answered even though the question had probably been meant for Sasha. He didn’t take his eyes away from hers though and she didn’t back down either.
“What would I say your best feature is?” Sasha asked.
“My nose.”
“Ah, yeah, that’s true…”
“Not his eyes?” Sua asked.
“Can’t put his eyes in my mouth.”
“Uh… what the fuck?” Sua murmured. Her shoulders shook with her snorts of laughter but Sasha and Jungkook remained serious. He nodded because this made sense for him. 
“My answer about you?”
“My hair,” she suggested.
He clicked his tongue, “No.”
“No? Not my– you can’t answer pussy or tits for this.”
“Oh, she has a pretty one.”
Jungkook broke eye contact, asking Sua, “You know that?!”
“What? No! I was asking if you thought so!”
“Oh, ok. Yeah, it’s–”
“Oh my god, could you not?” Sasha laughed. “Eyes on me, Jeon. Stop thinking about that– wait, so not my hair? My ass?”
“This is adorable. He loves so many things about you?”
“She only likes my nose,” Jungkook joked.
“Shut up, that’s not true!”
“I said eyes. Ah, they’re pretty and it’s ok to say that in front of our friends. I’m not pointing out anything else to them!”
“They already know,” Sua snickered.
“Ok uh… your turn, right?” Sasha asked. Under her breath she mumbled, “Obviously there are a million more things I like about you…”
“Yeah,” Sua said. “Also he’s winning.”
“Damnit.”
Jungkook smiled at Sasha’s sulking as he perused the list of questions before him before posing, “What is my worst habit?”
“Agh, there are so many!” she cried, half joking, half serious. “How am I supposed to pick one?!”
“Wow you really embody the spirit of The Newlywed Game, huh?” Sua laughed.
“You think I’m the only one with bad habits? I can’t list all of yours!” Jungkook countered!
“Ok I’m going with you pick your scabs. It hurts me.”
“Ah, I knew you’d say that one,” he grinned, marking something on his paper. “It’s either that one or you don’t like when I pick your nose–”
“Yeah don’t pick my fucking nose for me! Boundaries! He always wants to pop my pimples too–”
“Yah,” he chuckled, crooked grin on full display.
“You guys are disgusting. What’s Sasha’s worst habit?” Sua’s delight in this was too transparent.
“She eats in bed,” Jungkook said. “No no, she steals all the covers and pillows and she never wants the food she orders, she just wants what I order.”
“Hey! You send me like twenty memes at night while I’m sleeping and then you sneak a serious question in the middle like you’re testing to see if I looked at them all.”
He laughed and shouted, “Look at them!”
“I don’t need Spongebob memes first thing in the morning!”
“Yeah you should be putting your clothes away after two days, they are still sitting on the floor,” he teased. 
Sasha gasped and pointed, “How many nearly-empty water bottles and/or water bottles missing the cap do you have in your apartment right now? Give me a number.”
“Ok next question,” he smiled, lifting and tapping his paper as if it was a full stack of sheets and not just one.  She laughed too. None of these were serious issues. She could name more bad habits of his that didn’t really bother her and he probably could too and they’d just laugh about it because they were both annoying and endearing. She would never cut deep with complaints in a space like this, not even to win a game, and knew he wouldn’t either. So her self-sabotaging wouldn’t come up, or her overthinking, nor would his swallowing his emotions or getting jealous over dumb things. But she did that too… Maybe his bossiness during games was fair game but then so would be her bossiness during home projects or Lego building, so that was a wash. He talked with his mouth full of food but she picked her nails. He snored but sometimes she did too.
“Who’s winning?” Sasha demanded.
“Jungkook I think.”
“Bullshit,” she frowned at his smug grin. “Fine. What was the first thing you thought when you saw me?”
“Wait, I don’t know how to scorekeep. Shouldn’t he guess the first thing you thought when you saw him?”
Jungkook waved his hand because he very much did not want to guess that and corrected, “No no we are practicing right now. We’re learning. We just need to practice the answers right now.”
“I thought you were competing?” 
“Well yeah, we’re seeing who learns better and who already knows more,” Sasha nodded.
“That makes no fucking sense.”
They went back to ignoring her as Sasha gestured at Jungkook to answer.
“Sexy,” he said, wriggling his eyebrows. Was that true? Back then he would have probably said something different, something more romantic, something more dramatic. Now, years into their relationship, he looked back on those early feelings of his as adorable in their innocence. He didn’t know shit about her yet. He didn’t have the faintest idea who she was or just how important she would become in his life. He’d just thought she was sexy and he’d lucked the fuck out that the fantasy he projected onto her paled in comparison to the real Sasha. She still looked sexy in those tight skirts.
“Why are you looking at me so soft eyed?” she teased, crossing her arms.
Instead of answering that, he ordered, “Your answer.”
“Sexy.”
“Liar.”
“It’s true! Hot engineer dude.”
“Sexy is different than hot,” Sua pointed out.
“‘Hot’ will make me sound like a twelve year old boy,” Sasha complained.
“Well your boyfriend sounds like that too so it’s perfect. Besides, isn’t everyone like swearing on a Bible before the game begins or something? You have to be honest or I’ll rat you out.” Sasha made a face at Sua, though she had a point. 
“Fine. I thought ‘hottie’,” she sighed. 
Sua, chips done, dusted off her hands, then reached forward and grabbed Sasha’s paper, identical to Jungkook’s except for some notes she’d made. Jungkook’s had some doodles.
“Where was your first kiss?” she asked.
“Han river.” “Stones in the middle of the river.”
“Who said I love you first?”
“Jungkook.” “Me.”
“Who is the best kisser?”
“Jungkook.” “Sasha.”
“What’s the other person’s dream vacation destination? Mountains, city, beach–”
“Beach.” “Mountains.”
“You two are disgusting and none of these are secrets,” Sua sighed, throwing the paper back at Sasha. “I thought the point was to practice the things you don’t know about each other? These questions are too easy.”
“Well those are the kinds of questions in the game,” Sasha said.
“And we don’t tell real secrets in a game,” Jungkook added. “We only make a mistake once.”
“Well…”
Jungkook glared. He’d begun to shred his paper, and balled a little piece of it up to filck at Sasha. It hit her right in the forehead.
“JK, if you could change anything about Sasha, what would you change?” Sua asked, settling back. She checked her bag as if to see if any more chips had appeared in it. They had not.
“Uh… “ He glanced at her, obviously nervous, but she arched an eyebrow. He thought of any of the silly answers he could give, he thought of serious ones she might find sweet or might be offended by. Eventually he settled on, “I wish she could read my mind. Then I wouldn’t have to text her back or answer out loud when she asks a question while I’m tired.”
“Jungkook!” she laughed.
“What about you, Sasha?”
“I think it’d be cool if he could, like, cum candy.”
The laughter burst out of Jungkook and Sasha at the same time, but Sua took this answer very seriously and pressed, “What, like Milk Mints? Or grape cheongdo or something?”
“Ow!” Jungkook cried.
“I was thinking like chocolate?”
“You don’t like chocolate as much,” Jungkook pointed out.
“I know but I feel like banana or strawberry would get really tiring after a while.”
“Maybe like a soft serve swirl?” Sua suggested. They were laughing too hard now. Jungkook let his head hang and shook it but kept snorting again. 
“You are both sick,” he told them. “Two sick girls. It already tastes like ice cream, what are you talking about?”
“That’s my secret,” Sasha laughed. “That I’m sick, not that it tastes like ice cream. Sorry, babe, it’s doesn’t.
“It’s not a secret you’re bad,” he corrected. “You say things like that in front of Sua. You don’t care if she’s thinking about my cum now?”
“I can’t believe you’re calmly talking about it –oh but your neck is getting red,” Sasha teased.
“Yeah I’m also a bad influence,” Sua giggled proudly.
“That’s not a secret either, noona,” Jungkook laughed. Both girls shouted protests but kept laughing.
“You can counter. Say you want her to cum honey or something.”
“No!” Sasha cried already seeing Jungkook’s grin before he assured Sua, “She already does that.” 
“Shut up!”
“It’s better than banana milk.”
“You’re sick! Not me, it’s you!”
“You have a booger, come here,” he joked, motioning her closer.
“You are both sick,” Sua said, standing. “Seriously, you’re disgusting. I’ve never been so glad to be single. I’m looking forward to dying alone, seriously. If anyone tries to pick my nose I’ll stab them.”
“Sua wait! Come back!” Sasha laughed. Jungkook felt victorious to have chased Sua off. He felt like he’d beat the girls at their own game, even though they were playing a different game right now, even though this wasn’t actually even the game yet, just prep, because he and Sasha wanted to beat all the other couples next weekend.
“You want to share secrets? JK, ask her about the time she thought a garbage bag was a stray cat when she was tripping on shrooms–”
“Sua!”
Jungkook let out a long, serious sigh and demanded, “Ok. Tell me about your kitty, bad girl.”

Two years ago, Hawkins High School, Braverman and JD have been building their friendship, and surprising to everyone around them they’ve been getting along rather well. Even JD is surprised, though he’d never openly admit to enjoying the one piece of stability in his life atm.
They’re both hanging outside for their lunch break, having gotten slushees and some deli sandwiches from the 7-II. Finishing their lunch, they both have different ideas of after dinner mints. Braverman whips out a package of Garfield Stripes Shredder Bubble Gum to chew, while JD whips out a cigarette and lights up.
Braverman: Since when do you smoke, Jason?
JD: -inhales and breathes out a large puff of smoke- Off and on. In my lifestyle, there’s not much of a point to clean living. -snorts out smoke from his nose- -holds up a cigarette to Dan- Care for a hit, Danny-boy?
Braverman: Nah. -chewing the grape flavored Garfield gum- I’m good.
JD: -lowers the free cigarette- Hmm, not gonna give me the “smokes R bad” spiel? That’s a first out of someone. -puffs some more-
Braverman: Technically I’ve had a cigar once.
JD: Technically?
Braverman: I was dressed as J. Jonah Jamison at a Halloween party with Will, Mike and the others last year. I had a cigar to complete the look, but I had a habit of chewing the cigar, so I swallowed a lot of the junk and got very ill.
JD: Heh. -puffs- I geddit, trying to give me the spiel through a tragic backstory, are ya?
Braverman: The doctors said I should’ve been dead.
JD: Huh?? Just from accidentally swallowing that??
Braverman: Apparently my body can’t handle the chemicals due to a genetic glitch. That coupled with that beer I tried with Dustin caused a reaction that saw my throat to swell shut and one of my kidneys to stall… By some sheer luck, I’m still here.
JD: -looks unnerved and a little green- C’mon, yer just pulling on my dick, … right? There’s no way that could almost kill you, Danny-boy.
Braverman: -lifts up his Garfield shirt and points to a stitched up left side- Well that’s where they had to remove the kidney.
JD: -the cigarette slowly slips out of his mouth, and on to a small puddle, where it goes out- Holy fuck… D-does second hand smoke do anything?
Braverman: -puts his shirt back down- Dunno for sure. I don’t think so? My ma used to smoke a lot when she was pregnant with me and long afterwards, so it might…? She quit smoking after this happened though.
JD: -stews on this a bit, looking unnerved he might actually be hurting the only friend he has unintentionally- Ugh, gimmie the gum.
Braverman: Huh?
JD: -reaches over and takes the Garfield gum and shoves some in his mouth- I can’t risk it.
Braverman: -gives a coy side eye- Risk what? Your own lungs?
JD: -chews loudly, trying to power through the gum, as it’s an ok flavor but it doesn’t last long, but looks away, blushing- Y-yeah, sure.
Eddie Munson walks up to the two younger boys: Hey fellas! I, uh, hate to ask this, but do either of you have a light or cigs at all? Teach confiscated mine again.
Jason: -without turning around, he just chucks his pack of Camel cigarettes at Eddie- Knock yerself out, Munson, I just quit smoking.

(ASJAFHHK OKAY I'M FINALLY HERE. I'M SENDING FOR ALL THREE OF THEM SEPARATELY HEHEHE)
🏁 Hi Tom!! Hope you're having a good day! (beware the upcoming Christmas season💀) Okay I give you 6 and 13 from the causal takeover asks for you to answer!
And I have my own question: What do you think about this song? It reminded me of you and Jesse. I also think you should show it to her😆
(I HOPE YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I DANCED IN MY ROOM ALONE AFTER SEEING YOU SPAM MY INBOX AJSKSHAJAJAKSKAK TYSM)
- Hi there, I was gonna say I'm currently having fun until you reminded me that December is right around the corner
Just kidding, I can hold myself down now. Say thanks to her for me :)
6. What made you head over heels for Jesse? What lit that spark for you?
Tumblr media
- To be honest...? It was just her being her genuine self that really got to me. I was talking to her one day, I think I was talking about some of my interests since she asked me what I like to do. I felt that I should stop talking since I've been babbling for long minutes now, I apologized then said something like how it's probably hard to catch up with what I'm saying. I've gotten a bit more worried if people really cared about what I talk about lately. But to my surprise, she smiled at me, and said something like;
"I like listening to you, it's how I can get to know you more."
From that point, I started feeling uneasy. Maybe it's because I've never, or haven't heard someone say that to me for quite some time now and it's like a wave of water suddenly washing over your face and you're fazed? Something like that, but that uneasiness wasn't necessarily bad because it made me feel ticklish inside.
And since then, I couldn't help but anticipate for the next day she would come back to visit, because she wouldn't mind — no, heck, she would LOVE to know more about me. That anticipation slowly became admiration because I've started to think about her even when she's not there, then I would notice her little habits and quirks and suddenly — boom. It's more than just admiration now. I had a crush on her. Then the rest happened, and then to present. I still think about those days, honestly, she makes me smile a lot more now.
13. What’s something you know about Jesse that not others know about? Any secrets you wanna share? Come on, embarrass Jesse, it’s okay.
- Heh, I like this one. I have some to share :)
Ever since I expressed my interest for Ska, the next time we talked about it, she suddenly became more knowledgeable about it. I couldn't help but raise a brow at that. I jokingly told her "it's like you suddenly researched about it for me." and she looked a little nervous after that. Turns out that I was right, she did search about it after I talked about it. She just wanted to impress me, but I can't make fun of her, because I totally would've done the same.
Another was when she would come home from either her part time job, or university, she ALWAYS has something written on her hand. It will always have something to do with writing "T + J" or "Tom <3". She admitted that it's always her happy place when she looks at her hand whenever she's feeling stressed. She adapted habit this back at her elementary days, but it still continued on to this day. It's adorable, yeah but it also tells me that she needed to cope momentarily and I feel that I have to do something about it, whenever I see ink smudge on her left hand.
• What do you think about this song? It reminded me of you and Jesse. I also think you should show it to her 😆
Okay, I gave that song a good listen and, I...???
Tumblr media
It's fantastic. There were so many parts where I couldn't help but widen my eyes because of how accurate it was. Also that Novemeber mention made me chuckle, just make it December and we're good to go.
The part where it went "Mine was wack, then I thought about you, felt alright.", why was that so accurate??? I smiled hard, because yeah! Pretty much! And the "did you call me baby?" is a good throwback to the whole T.omee Bear nickname thingy, it's like this song is written by me, except I didn't even know it existed!
I lent my earphone to Jesse before I typed this, she kept giggling and asking if I'm sure I did not write this. She totally loved the accuracy, good reccomend by the way!
This was very entertaining, thank you!

Hello dear! By a stroke of luck I saw you were doing matchups and I'd love to join <33 I'd like a matchup for tokyo revengers please, if that's okay!!
My pronouns are She/Her and my gender preference is male and I'd like it to be romantic please <3.
For some positive personality traits: I'm overall very friendly and easy to approach. I'm very patient and slow to anger. I'm very empathetic and sympathetic, I have a very easy time putting myself in others' shoes and rarely judge others. I'm a good listener and very attentive to others' needs. I tend to remember little things about the people I love and if I'm passionate about something I will always put my 110% in.
For some negative traits: I have a bad habit of being a people pleaser and have an overall hard time saying no unless I'm asked something blatantly dangerous. I'm a big daydreamer so I often have my head in the clouds which can make me less attentive to my surroundings and may lead the to zone out every now and then. I'm a BIG procrastinator and when I don't really like something I'll leave it until the very last moment to do. And lastly I tend to beat around the bush when I have to say something negative to someone or about someone to them or at least take a while to at least get to it because I try to sugarcoat it as much as possible. So... Basically not very straightforward.
Zodiac signs:
Sun: Taurus Moon: Pisces Rising: Cancer Venus: Pisces
Mbti and enneagram: INFP-T 9w1
Love languages: All of them tbh but primarily Words of affirmation and Physical touch.
What I value in a relationship:
Truly I appreciate honesty and communication. In relationships I'm quite good at being both of those with a partner fortunately and I appreciate it if they do the same. I'm a very big romantic and they don't necessarily have to be too but I like it when they don't mind gestures, unless it something that genuinely makes them uncomfortable of course. I like it when my partner is thoughtful and I like at least a bit of patience.
My hobbies include:
-Ballet
-Cooking/Baking
-Playing Piano and Bass guitar
-Writing (poetry/songs/books)
-Reading
-Listening to music
-Pottery (just started though 😅)
For other details:
I like animals, I like to go on unnecessarily long walks, kind of embarrassing but sometimes when I'm nervous to go somewhere for whatever reason I have this little plushie I take with me in my bag, I collect pink snack packages?? It might've not been delicious but at least the packaging is cute 😪, another unsung love language of mine is just feeding people? It ties in with my hobby for sure but with me you'll never go hungry, I like dressing up, my favorite season is winter, I'm very affectionate both verbally and physically and will tone it down depending on the person, I can be very talkative with the right person, sometimes when I laugh too hard I snork a little :/, I'm busy getting a degree in pedagogy, even though I dance ballet I'm a terrible dancer in all other aspects and... That's all I can think of at the moment.
For my ideal type:
I've thought about it but I'm not very picky. I just like people who like me :D
The scenario I'd like to see with them:
I'd like to see what they do for a date please!!
I hope that was enough 😩 tysm dear, I hope you have a great day <3
-🩰
1000 Follower Event Matchup #1
Want to participate in this event? You can figure out how to do so in this post
Note: Welcome to my blog and thank you so much for sending in a matchup request! You were the first one! :D I'm not sure if you're a manga reader or not, because this character talked about more in the manga, but hopefully you know him! I hope you like that I paired you with him too. It literally took me hours to narrow it down NFHEKABF, but this one is definitely perfect for you (he's one of my favs that I learned to love after starting the manga SO CONGRATS, keep him happy :( )
Tumblr media
I match you with…HAKKAI SHIBA!
Tumblr media
runner-ups were sanzu and kakucho, but I decided on hakkai for the reasons I'm about to list heh
To start off with the technical stuff, Hakkai is an INFP, just like you, and his enneagram is 9w1, just like yours as well so you two would definitely have a lot in common and that would bring you both closer together! Two peas in one pod, we love to see it. He's also a Virgo which based on the site I used, they are compatible with Taurus'. :3
Onto the more personable details, Hakkai would absolutely love how friendly and approachable you are, he’s pretty shy with women, so you being the way you are made it that much easier for him to approach you when you two first met. He’d fondly watch as you get lost in your head, daydreaming away. For the moments when you can’t say no to people, he’d step in and draw the line for you. No one will walk over you with him around, or take advantage of your kindness. He’s super protective over you and watches over you whenever you guys go anywhere together. He does look pretty intimidating, so that helps in keeping some negative or unwanted attention away from you. His main goal is to keep you safe and happy!
Get ready to have your love language filled, he’s very touchy as soon as the early, awkward stage of your relationship is over. ALWAYS has to be holding your hand or touching you in some way–whether you’re walking beside him or sitting next to him at a Toman meeting. He’ll also always tell you how much he loves you and how beautiful you are (while blushing because even though he’s been with you for so long, that awkwardness still pops through every now and then). TRULY a perfect match. I SHIP IT. AND ARE U KIDDING ME?? BALLET??? HE would make it his mission to watch you practice with hearts in his eyes and you better believe he’s attending all of your recitals (if you have any, if not, he's perfectly fine supporting you in private). 
He would find a way to incorporate himself into your hobbies, by joining in on some like reading or cooking. Would definitely be willing to have a sneak taste if you want to feed him, and I think he’d enjoy feeding you as well. JUST VERY CUTE ROMANTIC THINGS WITH HIM OKAY. I'M SO JELLY WRITING THIS BC HE’S ONE OF MY FAVS BUT WOW HE WOULD LOVE YOU SO MUCH. He really enjoys watching you do the things you love like writing and playing instruments. Hakkai loves the little snort that sometimes leaks through when you laugh–it gets him blushing like mad bc you’re just so adorable to him and can’t believe he’s lucky enough to be with you. Invite me to your wedding please :(
Date Night with Hakkai:
First of all, as soon as I saw pottery on your list of hobbies, this idea instantly came into my head
BUT YES HAKKAI WOULD TAKE YOU ON A POTTERY DATE EEEE SO ROMANTIC
He knows you’re still learning pottery and he figured this would be a perfect time for him to hop in on one of your hobbies–he’s excited to learn!
He takes you to this quaint local studio that allows people to come in and do their own pottery for a small fee
At first he’s just watching you do your own thing; collecting the clay, throwing it on the wheel, and working your wet hands into the clay, shaping it to perfection
He tries to follow along, but you’ll probably have to give him a hand, guiding his hands the right way (little “ghost” pottery scene action here NFHEKAFEKJ)
You both have a great time, especially Hakkai, but he’s mostly happy about seeing you enjoy yourself
He could honestly have fun doing anything at all so long as he gets to spend time with you
Of course once your creations are made and ready to be thrown in the kiln, you leave and make an appointment to come back to pick your ceramic pieces up another day
After your pottery date, he walks hand in hand with you to a nearby restaurant where your wonderful date continues
10/10 would recommend, now I wanna make pottery again ahhhhhh

Pitiful Habit, Really… (a #GyutaroxRasshu short)
Looking past the foliage that surrounds her estate, the hashira of bravery sits on her roof as the sun sets beyond the landscape. Seemingly waiting, she crosses her legs as she witnesses the sky fade to night. With her signature blade in hand, she runs the blade against her fingers gently from boredom. Suddenly, a wave of dread washes over her body as a skinny firm hand holds her hand protectively! Looking up, she meets the familiar unsettling gaze of a dreadful demon, Gyutaro the uppermoon 6. With a disappointed glare, his teeth chatter as he cups his fragile partner’s face.
Gyutaro: Again… you’re cutting your fingertips again… you’re frustrating to deal with you know. Cant you find a BETTER way to pass the damn time?
Rasshu: Its not like its hurting me in some dire way. Plus, i cant really help it, its just a bad habit of mines…
Gyutaro: I rather not have another pair of pitiful hands to look at. Mines is already enough… cant you just cut my hands if its such a bad habit?! Damn…
Rasshu: eh? Nah… you like the pain, you lil freak. I cant willingly make you happy or its no fun! GRAHAHA… but seriously, dont worry about my hands. Im careful not to draw blood n all.
Gyutaro: No. Actually, I wont allow you to keep doing this stupid shit. Your being a pathetic idiot.
Rasshu: ?!… ye trying to get beheaded today, mate?
Gyutaro: If it keeps you from peeling the damn skin off yourself, then fine by me. Its not like your strong enough to kill me anyway.
Rasshu: Eugh… ok ok… If its really that important to you, ill try to stop cutting my “precious handies” for your sake.
Gyutaro: good… I swear, i dont know how you survived for so damn long without someone like me to stop you from your stupid antics… it’s annoying…
Rasshu: Awws, look at big gootawo being all protective over lil me! you do wuv me 💕 Ya big pushover babu!
Gyutaro: … *begrudging kiss*
Rasshu: … heh, told ye… *gentle kiss*
(Weehehehehehe! Tumblr is the best place to post these short #gyutaroxrasshu shorts) Art made by me obviously 🗯️
