Syra: My little bear cut his hair and trimmed his bear just to take me on a date! I am flattered! But I like my hairy bear!
Tumblr media
So, @dandylion240​ asked for Syra too before. So, here goes.
How did they first meet?
Syra met Lysander as a teenager while she was out looking for herbs to do a potion. She accidently lured the ire of Greg and Lysander ended up protecting her. 
2. How did they get together?
Syra is stubborn and persistente. Despite Lysander pushing her away as he was an adult and she a teenager, she decided he would be her friend. 
One day, Lysander caught Syra being bullied by a couple of girls in the woods and he scared them off. He found her crying and after she coming clean about a lot of things, such as to why the girls were bullying her or why they called her ‘futa’.
Lysander told her she was beautiful woman and anyone would be lucky to love her. She asked if he would. He answered “maybe when you’re older”. One year later she knocked at his door and went “I’m older now.”
Things didn’t fall straight into the dating. Lysander had other issues besides his age about dating Syra. Problems and secrets he held that would be an issue. But it was difficult to not be lead by Syra’s bubbly nature. She was sunlight.
3. Who kissed who first?
Syra kissed him first. After she went to knock at his door to tell him she was now a young adult and wanted to date him, he asked to take her on a date first. He of course didn’t expect her to accept it, but she did.
And he went “fuck, I didn’t expect her to agree! Now I have to take her on a date!” 
Nonetheless he went all out. He even cut his hair and trimmed his beard to look younger and presentable for her. But she liked him hairy. At the end of the date, he left her home and she kissed him. Saying she would wait for a second date. 
4. What’s the relationship like? Smooth? Rocky?
Very smooth. Syra is a very confident and bubbly woman who knows well what she wants of her life. Lysander is very mellow and peaceful and is usually the one being pulled around by her whims that he’s more than happy to oblige.
At first they had some difficulties. Lysander was much older and had a bit of an issue that he had to come clean to her. But once he came clean to her, her first reaction: “That’s it?! Puppybear, my dad is a dragon and I have a penis! So you’re a little hairy. So? I like that!”
5. What do they like the most about each other?
Lys loves Syra’s infectious happyness. She’s a sunflower always seeking the sun even in the rainiest of days. It’s impossible not to find happyness and glee around Syra.
Syra loves Lys patience and maturity. She loves his warmth, how this big, burly man, is a big burly sack of love and kindness who all soft and warm and will cry watching sad movies with her and massage her feet and carry her piggyback style, and not care one bit that she dresses all girly and wears pigtails and buns. 
6. Who cleans the most? Contrary to that, who is the messiest?
Syra cleans more. Lys isn’t particularly messy, but he won’t put away his dishes. He will wash them, but not put them away. Same with clothes. Syra came to give a bit of an organization to their lives. But they’re both cluttered.
7. Who usually cooks?
Lys usually cooks. He also hunts their food most of the time. Though Syra gets upset that he hunts bunnies and chickens. They’ve come an understanding. He won’t hunt her chickens and she won’t bother him about the bunnies.
8 . Who tends to worry the most?
Lys usually worries well enough for the two of them. 
9. Who is more inclined to be jealous or possessive?
Syra is actually more jealous and possessive than Lys. Lys is very chill. He loves her and only her. But Syra will glare angrily at other women/men for just looking at her puppybear wrong. 
10. How do they resolve their arguments?
Usually Lys is the one who ends them but just not engaging. He let’s Syra get everything out of her chest and once she stops he makes her tea and then tries again. 
11. Who is the most physically affectionate?
They both are. These two are always touching, and hugging, and kissing, and tickling and just being all touchy feely with eachother.
12. Who has the most nightmares and how do they deal with them?
Syra usually has more nightmares than Lys. She often has dreams of loosing her big brother.
Lys only has nightmares during the crescent moon phase, then it ebbs down. And usually his nightmares are more ‘animalistic’. 
For either of the two, the nightmares are solved by spooning.
13 .Who steals the blankets?
Syra. She’s a blanket monster. 
14. Who gets cold the easiest?
Syra. That’s why she likes her hairy puppybear.
15. Who pays for the food the most, when they go out?
Lysander. He’s a good ol’ fashion gentleman.
16. Do they enjoy dancing?
They both have two left feet, but they will step on each others feet happily and laugh at how bad they are. 
17. Do they ever trade clothes?
So far Syra has managed to steal 5 shirts from Lys. Lyst does not complain. He keeps one of her jumpers for those colder nights.
18. Do they ever go swimming together?
These two skinny dip like animals. Living their lives to the fullest with nature.
19. Do they ever cook together?
All the time. When it’s good old grandma’s recipes Syra is the one in charge. When it’s grilled steak or red meats, it’s up for Lys. 
20. Do they give each other nicknames?
Lys calls Syra “Sunny”, and Sunflower due to hearing Arlo call her that. Syra likes to call Lys her hairy bear, her puppy and her puppybear.

Yeet, brandishing a pen: I WOOOOULD! ~ Yeet: Chillax~ Alzora: That’s not a word. Yeet: Sometimes the ones who deny “chillax” are the ones who need to chillax the most. ~ Aria: 13 year old me would be both terrified and in awe at who I am now. Niyana: 13 year old me wouldn't think I'd get this far. Yeet: I would fight a 13 year old me. ~ Snipe: Yeet came into my room in the middle of the night, I pretended to be asleep, and they stroked my hair for a minute then left. Are they planning to kill me??? Aria: No they just care about you, idiot. ~ Yeet: Well, I guess you could say I’ve fallen for you.

HeyHey, If you still open. I really loved your headcannon about the Pregnancy-Announcement with Kirishima. It made so much fun to read and screaming how wholesome it is. So I would wonder if you would do something similar for Midoriya? Maybe also including surprising Inko at the same Time? I just love the Midoriya Family ♥
Tumblr media
Okay so
You guys are together for a long time now
And you just want a kid so bad
You can imagine the little Midorya you love so much with onesies of his own dad
Geez so cute
You also know how dangerous could be for the number one hero to have a kid
 But you are up for it
You talked a lot about it and decided to start trying
You were having a little bit of a hard time but one day, you just woke up sooooo nauseous
 Immediatly went to the bathroom,you kept some tests for this type of situations
Positive
You were
SO HAPPY
YOU NEED TO TELL MIDORYA RIG-
Wait
no
What if
You remember seeing a compilation video about wifes doing surprises for their husbands, so why not try something like that too?
You came up with a great idea, You were doing a treasure hunt with him, the treasure was unknow, for him
Next weekend you guys had a dinner planned with Inko and All Might, so it was a double opportunite
You planned riddles and questions about your relationship and waited to him to get out that morning to buy everything you would need for the family dinner
You putted everything in place so quick you almost thought you had another quirk
You heart was beating so fast, you decided to film everything so you could show to your kids in the future
And to yourself, to remember how cute your husband is
He got home with all the food bags only to be greeated by a VERY smiling s/m
“I got a surprise for you! No questions just do the treasure hunt!”
He did asked questions, you didnt respond any of them
So, Izuku is not the type who forgets important dates, he have every important date marked somewhere
and it is EVERY important date
But he’s still a very insecure and distracted boy even after all those years
So he’s absolute panicking
WHAT IS THIS?? WHAT IS TODAY? GODDAMIT HE DIDNT GOT YOU ANY PRESENT, HE FORGOT ABOUT SOME IMPORTANT DATE HE’S SUCH A HORRIBLE HUSBAND OMG WHAT IF YOU LEFT HIM CAUSE HE’S SUCH A HORRIBLE HUSBAND? PLEASE NO HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH HE PROMISE HE’S NOT GOING TO DO THAT AGAIN
But he played it cool
No he didnt
 But lets pretend he did
It hurted you a bit seeing him so desperate but it was going to be worth it
It were 2 stages, the first on the kitchen where you were right now, and the other one on your bedroom
In the first stage he needed to respond a quizz about your relationship
Wich NOT helped him calm his nerves
Simple questions like ”Where did you met? Whats Your song? When are you aniversaries? Who confessed first? This type of things
Obviously, he didnt missed
I guess he never miss huh
He knows everything about you and about the time you spend together so this is a piece of cake even tho he was so scared he forgot stuff
He remember things about you even you didnt remember
Like your favorite spot to get icecream before that other store opened close to the park and became your absolute favorite
He just loves you so much and he wants to know every little thing about you
Doing the quizz he became a lot more relaxed, he just love every part of you and talking about all the times you had together makes him so happy
Also he kinda wanted to win now
You almost cry when you remember the day you guys confessed to one another
 “Okay, this one its the last one, now you can proceed to the next challenge
Are you going to tell me what is this all about now?
Not a chance, keep walking and nooo questions
Baby, please, I’m so curious!
No, you will know at the right moment!”
The challenge on the bedroom was putting the frase together, you provided the syllabes for the frase
He started noticing clues the syllables had, the first thing he put together was “You are”, after he noticed there was a ‘d’ alone, oh another one, baby are you sure you cut these correctly? There’s also two ‘a’s
….
‘dad’ he tought, he looked at you in complete silence
Quickly scanned the other syllables
‘You are going to be a dad’
He looked at you again, you could almost hear his heart racing
“You are going to be a dad ?Well, I’m not, I’m going to be a mom, you’re going to be a dadAre you serious?Please are you serious?Yes honey, I’m pregnant!”
So much tears
Your tears
His tears
My tears
So much tears
GOD so MUCH TEARS
He instantly hugged you, sloppy kisses all over your face while he was trying to say he loved you but was too much of a crying mess to actually say anything
Took care to not squeeze you too hard
But picked you up by the hip so he could kiss you belly
Sometimes you forget how strong he is
He is so ECSTATIC about itYou guys have SO much to think about
Names, the baby room, what school they’re going to be in, What will they want to be when they’re older
OMG
He HAS to tell his mom and All Might
OMG HE HAS TO TELL KACCHAN AND IIDA AND OCHAKO AND-
Oh, he’s mom and All might are probably getting here soon
BUT NO FEAR
YOU ARE HERE
You bought little baby shoes when you where thinking about his surprised
“Omg baby, lets tell them that way! God you are so perfect I love you SO MUCH”
So you stopped filming for a short brief
You guys put the baby shoe on a gift box and waited for them
Midorya didnt want to eat at home anymore, he wanted to spoil you as much as he could
So when Inko and All Might got there they were greeated with two very exited “Young ones” and a camera
Midorya didnt let them have time to protest and lead them to the couch and brought the gift box
So much confusion
What is this?
Just open the box? Okay
Baby shoes? I dont…
OH MY GOD
So much happyness in this room is almost hard to see
“OMG my babies are having a baby? Am I going to be a grandma?Congrats Young Midorya and Young Y/n! This is going to be a hard responsability but also a great blessing!”
The Midoryas are freaking out in a corner while you and All Might watch with happy smiles
OF COUSE you went out on the best place to celebrate
Izuku called your angencies to tell everything and warn you would not be going in patrol for some time
Cause of couse Izuku would NOT let you go on patrol while pregnat, he trust you, he knows you can handle it but he’s just so worry while you are using your quirk or moving fast something happends
You agreed cause you were also worried
Inko gave you SO MUCH prengant advice, and make it clear she’s going to be there to help you with ANYTHING and spoil her grandson so much
All Might is not as talkative like Inko or Izuku, he’s so happy for you two but deep inside he’s so worried something happends to you
This is the son of the number one hero after all
So many villans could try to kill you
Also who knows when the One for All on Izuku is going to start to get weak
He’s so worried about so much things and you can see that
“All Might?Oh, Yes Young Y/n?I’m going to be okay, I promise*sight* I guess I am a little bit worried, but I know you can handle yourselfI trust Izu as well, he would never let enything happen to meYes, in fact, you’re right young Y/n”
When you were getting back to your house Midorya said to you post the video you made
“Are you sure honey? Villans can see..But I want everyone to know so they can be happy with us! But if you are worried about it its probably best if we didn-Already posted I just wanted your permission”
People are ECSTATIC about this, the number one hero is having a son? SUCH GREAT NEWS
All your friends sended messages as well, Ochako was SO exited about it
Izuku created the habit of sleeping with his hands on your belly, he really wants so feel when the baby’s first kick come
Also he made a meter long list of names for your child He can’t wait to be able to hug them
___________________________________________
Sooooooooooooooo this was fun
I hope you liked anon
I hope there’s not too much grammar erros, I tried my best at editing

Chlaze + Piercifer AU where Chloe is already involved with Maze and knows the whole Divinity thing is real but the time Pierce strolls in the precinct but... No one tells her who he is once they find out.
Maze doesn't trust him and her priority is keeping Chloe and Trixie safe now and it's better if he doesn't think she may know any of his secrets. And Lucifer is just still worried the more she’s involved in these things the more she's in danger, especially if he himself is the one involving her (cause he's still convinced he ruins everything he touches) and when he just made a pact to defy his Dad (who could retailate hurting people close to him, in his Genius brain the only option is keeping everyone completely in the dark about as many things as possible). So he keeps his mouth shut initially and just tells Maze after she starts sniffing around, cause for her now Chloe and Trixie’s safety has a higher priority than even Lucifer’s and he can trust her to protect them both if Pierce ends up being more dangerous than he lets on.
Also Maze discovers how Marcus tried to get himself killed by almost getting Chloe shot too. And she turns him into a pincushion. She just stabs him and goes "This is for Chloe" then stabs him again and goes "This is for Chloe too" then stabs him another time and goes again "Still for Chloe" and she just goes on and on and he’s not even trying to defend himself anymore cause she gotta get tired at some point, right? Right?? Or she pulls a Charlotte and corners him in the precinct  after she’s dropped off a bounty, puts a hand on his chest and pushes him all the way into his office and there's not much he can do because Demon Stenght, and then she pushes him down on his chair and keeps a hand on his shoulder with enough strength he can't get up. And just starts treathening him. She goes on for like, 10 minutes at least. Until Chloe walks in like "Hey Lt. I have the- Maze! :D" and Maze goes "Chloe! :D" and gets sidetracked so when Chloe walks out she does too like, skipping steps. Pierce is left in his office sort of thinking "What the fuck just happened".
But fast forward some time and the people closest to Lucifer can tell something is going on with him and the Lieutenant but they can’t figure it out, knowing Lucifer it’s something weird. And then then Pierce has weird mood swings too and there’s just something off. But he doesn’t really get buddy buddy with anyone so they can’t figure him out either. This time not even Maze know what’s going on, but she doesn’t care as long as it doesn’t involve her or Chloe, Trixie and Linda. Amenadiel went after Cain of his own volition and can deal with the consequences and Lucifer went after him to the extent he’s the reason the guy didn’t leave LA in the first place. She’s not gonna monitor those two featherbrains 24/7. Linda is actually the one that knows Lucifer and Marcus’ relationship started getting some romantic undertones they deal with in egregiously bad ways.
And then there's some big case and shit goes ass up and Lucifer has to pop out his wings in front of Chloe and Marcus to shield them or something. And Chloe sees Marcus isn’t phased, and thinks Lucifer already revealed himself so she's like "Lucifer why does our boss know about you?? But at least it's another good ol' regolar human in the know." and Marcus is like "Uh. Right, she doesn't know." and she fucking freezes. Cause oh no, who the fuck is this now? And Lucifer just spits out "He'sCainfromtheBiblewhomImayhavefallenalittleinlovewithinbetweentryingtokillhimtoendhisinfinitemisery." and there’s a moment of silence where Chloe’s brain is just processing and Lucifer and Marcus both silently panic because Lucifer rused the L word and gave them both a little jolt of... happyness? Dan gets to the scene and just sees Chloe pummeling Lucifer. No more secrets they said! Keeping people at least marginally updated is the best course to make them aware of potential dangers and able to defend themselves better they said! And he didn't even tell her he had a boyfriend, she just had to guess like everyone else and then discover it like this. And then Marcus pipes up like "... I'm hardly a boy." and then regrets it because she just turns around glares at him and doesn't say anything just because she finally noticed Dan who's like "wtf??" (but she has so many words for him too, she's tired of this Miracle thing and people targeting her for it). Later that night at home she starts throwing pillows at Maze too cause "You knew too!! And didn't tell me anything!!"
They all end up having a heart to heart together. A general update of what’s going on. Marcus looks like he'd prefer to be anywhere else (he kinda looks like he swallowed a lemon, and the more everyone gets emotional the more he looks slightly horrified) , Lucifer holds his hand the whole time (Marcus still looks mildly horrified at everyone Emotioning around him but when Lucifer squeezes his hand he immediately squeezes back), Maze is still glaring at him and basically keeps Chloe almost in her lap the whole time. Chloe tries not to pull her hair out while Lucifer is recounting their shenanigans because they both made so many messes (and she suddenly understands that when they both started being unbearable and their moods were all over the place it was just them realizing they caught the Feels and reacting as well as two emotionally stunted immortals could). She pummels Lucifer some more because they're supposed to be friends and she deserves to know about things that concern her safety and he, no matter how much he believes, doesn't poison everything he touches and deserves to have a friendly shoulder to rely on, and she wants to be that, they're friends and she might be just a mortal but he has to trust her judgment and that she is able to not put herself in unnecessary danger while also supporting him. It's ok if he doesn't tell her everything all the time, some things are just for yourself. But she wants to be there for him and if the only thing that's holding him back is being afraid he'll ruin her well, he won't- and if she could she'd deck not only God and Goddess but also all the angels who made him believe that. And he's like "I'm not crying" while totally crying. Marcus starts with an awkward back pat because he hasn't comforted anyone in ages but then he gets into it and they're full on hugging and Lucifer is still clinging to him by the time they part ways with Chloe and Maze. He tries to act though and detatched through it all but he's also seconds away from just pulling Lucifer in his lap and cradling him in his arms but it's one of those things it's still hard to be spontaneous about, he has the impulse but always stops midway and does something smaller unless Lucifer coaxes it out of him. He still hovers tho. And Lucifer's like "I'm fine!" while almost bawling his eyes out. And he tries to, awkwardly hug Chloe while also not letting go of Marcus and while Maze is still holding onto Chloe.
Later Chloe and Lucifer can finally both talk about Maze and Marcus and, it's nice having Chloe to talk with cause Maze's advice seems to be always "Dump him. Stab him. Stab him and then dump him." and while Linda is helpful a therapy session is way different than just a night out with a friend. And also finally Chloe doesn't alway feel out of the loop and like something bad is going to happen any moment because Maze, Lucifer or Amenadiel are acting strange but everyone is being very vague but also nervous and tense. And also now Lucifer can show up at Chloe and Maze’s place in the middle of the night looking sad as a saggy bowl of cereals and Chloe listens to him mope about Marcus over a tub of ice cream and a romcom and then gives him advice. Maze sometimes walks by, steals some ice cream and mocks him. Or depending waht’s going on with Marcus offers to stab him some more.
#Talking Tag#Luciblogging#otp: and they were roommates#otp: til death do us part#I just want Chloe to be hopeful for like 2 seconds because she thinks there's another human in the know#But nope. He's got his fingers in /both/ pies: human and fucked up immortal.#Also now Lucifer has both Marcus and Chloe collaborating on trying not to get his ass killed on the job.#Also scenario where Lucifer tries taking a bullet for Chloe but Marcus jumps in front of him and takes it instead#and Lucifer is mad upset about how he hates seeing him get hurt and die even if he cand come back both because it's generally upsetting#and because they don't know what fuckery could happen with the Mark#and Marcus. in the midst of chocking on his own blood is like. 'You absolute idiot this is why we try to make you not rush into danger!'#'Do you think we /I/ like see you get hurt and die? And what if you get somehow stuck into Hell and we can't get to you??'#And Lucifer's like 'Oh'. Because his self sacrifying ass didn't think about that.#Or scenario where Marcus is about to be shot or something. And Chloe's not around so Lucifer steps in front of him.#And just gets the hail of bullets. They keep pinging off him and he keeps stalking forward and goes all red eyes and booming voice#Threatens to shove the guns so far up their asses. And just starts grabbing people one handed and throwing them around.#Or they're dealing with demons and Lucifer goes full Devil bod and roars in the middle of smaking demons around.#And literally flicks off two demons off Marcus with a hand and picks him to his feet with his other and then he's off again#And Marcus' just like 'This better not awaken anything in me'#it definitely does#It was kind of hot#so manyu typos rip+

The Favorite Word of Average People: "Okay"
I remember learning the word, “okay,” as a child and marveling at its versatility. It has such a broad meaning that you can use it in many contexts, and as a kid working to communicate with a limited vocabulary, being able to say “okay” carried me through all sorts of scenarios.
As I’ve gotten older, my feelings about the word have changed. Where saying “okay” used to give me freedom, now it holds me back. I’ve learned that in most cases, it’s not okay to say, “OK.”
Okay has become a toxic cop out
Sure, you can say “ok” in almost any situation. For example:
“How was the article?” “It’s okay.”
“How was that candidate?” “She was okay.”
“How’s your life?” “It’s okay.”
Saying that something is okay doesn’t tell us much about it. Usually it means that something is satisfactory, but it’s not especially good. It’s a way to avoid conflict by failing to offer meaningful feedback. It allows us to avoid committing to authentic communication.
When we say something is okay, we stop thinking
Not only does referring to something as okay keep us from providing a valuable assessment of the thing in question, but it keeps us from thinking about how to make that thing better.
Instead of trouble shooting and finding solutions, we check the “okay” box and move on to more interesting pursuits. When someone comes to us looking for feedback, telling them that something is okay doesn’t give them any idea about how to improve.
Labelling everything as “okay” makes you boring
Something that is just okay needs more work. People who label things in this manner are providing a lazy answer. Okay is a boring answer to a host of interesting questions, and it’s up to you to do better.
Communication is a two-way street. A person who asks for your honest opinion about a subject doesn’t want to hear that something is okay. You might as well say your opinion on all things is, “meh,” because you’re just that uninspiring.
“Okay” connotes a lack of ideas or an unwillingness to contribute something more substantial to the conversation. If everything is just okay all the time, the people who talk to you will grow bored. They’d get more feedback talking to the wall. You’ve made it their sole responsibility to keep the conversation afloat, which can be tiresome.
Saying “okay” too often makes people feel that you’re too agreeable
You can be easy to work with and disagree with people sometimes. When an idea is taking shape, you want all kinds of feedback and some push-back so that you can create something excellent. A collaborator who says that something is okay is simply saying that they don’t have a strong opposition to the idea. They may not love it, but it’s not worthwhile enough to improve.
You may think that you’re being nice when you label things as okay, but you’re not doing anyone any favors. “Okay” can be downright dishonest if you don’t like an idea that much, but at the very least, it is not helpful. A person who comes to you with an idea would love new insights or constructive feedback. It already takes so much to ask for feedback. Don’t deprive someone who values your opinion of the perspective that you could offer.
Maybe you are nervous that you’ll offend someone. Giving actual feedback may feel risky, but when someone asks for it, honesty is the best policy. When you make a non-committal remark like, “It’s okay,” you’ve revealed your overly cautious mindset.
Give concrete feedback instead when you want to say “okay”
“Okay” isn’t helping your communication skills. Erase it from your vocabulary, and work on offering your true opinion. It may take some practice to feel good about this new way of expressing yourself, but your friends and colleagues will appreciate your honesty. For example:
“How’s the article?”
“The ideas in this article are average. Try to use more exciting subheadings and provide some attention-grabbing visual elements so that readers will want to keep reading it.”
“How’s the candidate?”
“She passed our initial evaluation, and her philosophy aligns with our core values, but I’m not sure if she will be able to keep up in our fast-paced environment. It took her longer than expected to complete her test.”
For both of those questions, “OK” would have been way too vague to be helpful. You’ll notice that in both examples, the respondent not only took a stance, but he or she also used additional information to support the opinion.
You can say something is OK if you offer more details
Good communication requires that you include specific details when you offer your opinion. If you do end up saying that something is okay, be sure to add on to the response. It doesn’t have to be some great insight, but mentioning something can start a conversation that allows you and the other person to form a deeper connection.
“How did you like my short story?”
“It was ok. I liked the overall concept, but there were a few things I didn’t understand.”
An exchange like this could open up a conversation about how to improve the author’s work. In this case, the author trusted that the other person would give honest feedback. The conversation could continue with, “What would it take to make this outstanding? What could be done to make it better?” These additional details show the person that you are basing your opinion on your best judgement rather than issuing a default response.
Don’t accept “okay” from yourself either
If saying “okay” isn’t a good enough response to someone else’s question, it shouldn’t be the go-to answer you give to yourself either. Saying that you or something in your life is okay means that you feel adequate about it, but it doesn’t demonstrate any motivation or potential for a major breakthrough.
People are more likely to tell themselves that they’re doing okay when they’re facing big challenges or pursuing difficult goals. Sometimes this defense mechanism can make you feel better about the situation when things are overwhelming, but saying that a situation is okay doesn’t allow you to make changes or push through the task. “It’s okay,” quickly turns into, “I’ll worry about it tomorrow.” It’s a real drain on motivation.
Remember that successful people don’t go through their lives okaying every challenge that comes their way. They tackle these things head-on and become stronger in the process. They doggedly pursue their dreams until they achieve them.
Chris Gardner wouldn’t take “okay” for an answer
You may remember his story from the film Pursuit of Happyness, but in case you don’t know it, it is a story about never giving up. Gardner started out selling medical supplies, but that didn’t pay the bills. He wanted to become a stockbroker, but he didn’t have the necessary training or social connections to get his foot in the door.[1]
Things got worse before they got better, and pretty soon, Gardner was a homeless single dad who was barely getting by. Through his resourcefulness, he was able to land a spot in a training program that would ultimately lead him to becoming a stock broker. Today Gardner’s net worth is $60 million, but it wouldn’t have been possible if he had merely accepted having doors slammed in his face.
Say “okay” when you don’t care
“Okay,” is a fine response when you don’t care about something. Use it when you are trying to save time, or when you don’t want to engage in discussion.
“What do you think about that guy’s shirt?” “It’s okay.”
“I may be 2 minutes late to the meeting because I have another meeting right before that.” “It’s okay.”
“How do you feel about the remake of that movie?” “It’s okay.”
In these cases, the person doesn’t need feedback, and you don’t have much interest in continuing the conversation.
But for things that you do care, remember it’s okay to say something besides “OK”. You are capable of giving useful feedback and having opinions. It’s our ability to grow when we work together that leads to innovation. Don’t hide your greatness behind an answer as simplistic as “okay.”

Ah, yeah, if you say before the war then yes, Kakashi could have won
But also, what I most like about Kakashi and Obito's relationship is that they both can't kill each other
Kakashi had had many possibilities (I think I remember once Obito getting his stomach intangible and Kakashi was waiting in the Kamui dimension, and instead of stabbing him right in the guts he just punches him) but never took one
Similarly, Obito didn't use even once the Mokuton during their fight in the Kamui dimension, even if it would have given him a huge advantage and would have probably led to his victory (Kakashi was injured and tired, while Obito, thanks to the Mokuton, was able to heal from a fucking chidori through the heart)
And Obito claiming to hate Kakashi so much, I've always seen it as a way to convince himself more than anyone else, because Kakashi is the only thing left to tie Obito to Konoha and their past together
They are just... So fucking sad, pal. Their friendship always makes me cry. Their story is one of the most beautiful, I love it so much
Even when Obito talks to Kakashi, before they fight, when they're alone in the Kamui dimension... One of the things Obito tells Kakashi is that everything is possible in the genjutsu world he wants to create. That Kakashi won't have to suffer anymore. Obito knows that, by casting the Infinite Tsukuyomi, he, as the caster, would not be in it, and yet he's fine with that as long as others can enjoy their perfect world
And in that moment he thinks of making Kakashi happy so much I could cry
I love them. As enemies, as friends, as lovers, as chosen brothers, I don't care, they're just perfect together in any way
They're actually really sweet and while i do have problems with some of the things Obito says to Kakashi (because they are cruel and hurtful to Kakashi) I can't deny that Obito does care for Kakashi
he's just so desperate to cut that tie. To deny that he cares about Kakashi so that he can not care about hurting him. ABout having to fight him
Because if he doesn't care about Kakashi, then he can take care of the threat that Kakashi poses to him. But because that's not the case, he does struggle. He wants Kakashi to be able to rest. to stop hurting and be able to live in a world where nothing goes wrong. Where he has all of his friends around him and can be happy.
Obito wants so badly to just grant that happyness to someone, and the only tie he has left to the world is Kakashi. The friend that he always argued with. The person who tries so hard to live Obito's dream and make a better world that Obito would love, even when Obito had given up on the world himself.

I've read a very interesting fic yesterday that gave me an idea for a new AU. I mean, I'm not gonna link you the story because it's a explicit KakaObi with a pretty dark subplot and both rape and abuse, and I honestly can't see you reading something like that
Anyway, the idea that I took from the story (and modified a bit) is this: Kakashi is on a solo mission one day when he gets injured badly by an enemy, bad enough that he can't dodge the next hit coming for him, and before he can accept the idea of dying someone appears to save, but since the stranger has his back to him Kakashi can't see his face before he passes out from either bloodloss or exhaustion or whatever
When he opens his eyes again, his vision blurry from pain and exhaustion, he swears that someone is with him, taking care of his wounds, and he can only barely see a scarred face hovering over him and a single Sharingan glowing in the dark, but before he can say anything he's falling asleep again and when he wakes up once more he's alone
Of course at first he thinks it was just a dream created by his pain-muddled brain, because how many chances there are to find someone with only his right Sharingan (probably stolen, Kakashi thinks at first) and the right side of the body full of scars (like they had been crushed under something heavy)? Kakashi thinks he simply healed himself on instinct and that he had been alone
But then it happens again, when Kakashi is on a mission with Tenzo, and when Tenzo finds him he is alone and still unconscious- but with his injuries taken care off and carefully bandaged. And that's when Kakashi thinks that maybe, maybe it wasn't a dream, and that that stranger might be someone Kakashi knows- and with only a Sharingan- but then again, why would Obito save him and not return to the village, right? So he starts investigate on it, because if he thinks about it... They never took his body back, and maybe it's just a childish hope, but after losing everything and everyone he doesn't want to throw away this possibility
There’s so much to process here XD
Kakashi with hope in his heart that he might be able to find and get his friend back, it just makes my heart melt. He just wants to be able to find someone that he lost, and know that they’re actually ok.
That he maybe doesn’t have to keep visiting Obito’s grave, because he’s not really gone.
He tells Tenzo and Gai, but no one else. Everyone else would look at him funny and call him insane, and really he wouldn’t blame them. Tenzo even as a judgmental look on his face, but he listens. And Gai knows how important this is to Kakashi so he doesn’t shoot it down. 
of course, they can’t just go looking for a man thought long dead. the Hokage would never approve this, so they need to gather information. They need proof.
problem is, the only time this person apparently shows up is when Kakashi is pretty badly injured. something Kakashi is perfectly alright with having a repeat of, but Tenzo and Gai are a hard No against. So they’re not going with that plan.
unfortunatly for them, missions happen and sometimes they get rough. So of course Kakashi gets badly injured again, and of course his hero shows up to stitch him up. They always have before, why would they stop now?
except this time Kakashi actually had one of the hounds out following him a ways behind just in case. he summoned them before the mission before using any chakra for the fight, so it didn’t drain him at all to call them, and Obito assumed that they were gone after Kakashi finished the fight. they’re not though, and they see who grabs Kakashi and starts to stich him.
they don’t see a face. Obito’s to careful about that, but they recognize the scent. as old as it is, they’ve smelled it before when Kakashi has summoned them around Obito. and a hound never forgets a smell.
So when Kakashi wakes up in another cave, stitched up with no recolection of what happened, his hound is able to fill in the blanks, and for the first time in year Kakashi doesn’t just have hope.
He has confirmation and a feeling of happyness knowing that Obito is actually alive, even if he doesn’t know what’s going on yet or why Obito hasn’t come back to the village.

The Favorite Word of Average People: "Okay"
