gigai!  (.❛ ᴗ ❛.)
Man, I love gigai. They’re so weird. They seem like the hardest, most complicated way to accomplish something but I’m also 1000% willing to believe technologically/magically it really is their best possible present solution. I’ve posted before about the buck-wild gikon lore we got from Rukia, and the potential that the way we see gigai and gikon used most often in-series is not the way they have been historically used by Soul Society--that the current usage is a newer development, and is possibly even further popularized by Influencer/Cultural Icon Rukia.
I also hc that the “potential of drawing Hollows by your presence” that sitting around in gigai ameliorates, according to the Advance Team arc, is more of a context-specific concern because 1) Arrancar are afoot, 2) they are focused on things other than routine Hollow extermination (if you ARE there to exterminate Hollows, being a beacon for them would be rather convenient!), and 3) the average shinigami on one of these patrols doesn’t light up the area like a county fair in the way that a pile of Captain/VCs does. 
But anyway, I’m actually here to talk about Episode 128, my latest installment of “I think about this way more often than it’s genuinely worth, but NPR gave me 5 minutes of airtime so I’m going to talk about it anyway.”
Nothing happens in Episode 128. Ichigo does 2 seconds of Vizard training and then the Advance Team Minus Renji stand around in a park at different times of day. But I love it anyway! Because I think so much about what the cultural norms around gigai/gikon are in this episode.
Step 1. When to Use Your Gikon
After standing around in a park in the afternoon, Matsumoto goes shopping. But when she gets an alert for a Hollow in her area, she realizes she has to go back to that park and stand around in it at dusk. Even though she is in full view of a human and is in fact interacting directly with this human, she stops what she’s doing and immediately bounces from her gigai, leaving her gikon in her place. I’m sure the assumption here is that any human in the vicinity shouldn’t be able to tell the difference, and that this is better than living a limp body in an alleyway. (Sidebar: The fact that there are multiple gikon types, and that the gikon dispenser has been redesigned for the Aesthetic, but NONE OF THE TYPES are good at blending, and most of them are actively bad at it, is absolutely god-tier. Love it. Perfection. Especially when you consider that Rukia says they’ve historically been used to bounce souls out of corpses lololol. Award-winning tech straight from the 12th!)
Step 2. How to Reclaim your Gigai
Anyway, Matsumoto et al do their standing in the park at dusk, and then they all go retrieve their gigai. For some reason, even though Matsumoto was closest to the park, everyone else has already retrieved theirs when they then all accompany her to get hers:
Tumblr media
I guess it would make sense to retrieve the furthest first, since it’s faster to travel as a shinigami rather than having to walk around town in gigai. Why this needed to be a group project and they all needed to be here for Matsumoto’s retrieval? I have no idea. But anyway, the part about this I love is that Matsumoto does not seem to care one iota that her gikon is causing an absolute scene, and also was in the middle of assaulting this poor man:
Tumblr media
Like, degree to which Matsumoto (or anyone else in this scene) is caring about the nature of this gikon/human interaction: 0. There’s basically no sense that this would be inappropriate or undesirable, or that it would create a disturbance better avoided. They just DO NOT REACT, which gives the impression that inasmuch that humans are to be protected and human buildings should not be subject to destruction-by-shinigami-battle, from the shinigami POV humans are essentially NPCs and it doesn’t much matter how you interact with them. (I also think that “caring about humans” is actually secondary to caring about their souls. Sure, it’s definitely better for humans to not die horribly by supernatural means, because that’s sad and it would make their families sad. That’s parseable. But whether their soul is in a body or not is still probably not as big a concern as whether their soul is headed for Hollowfication or Soul Society.)
There’s just this beautiful disconnect in that they don’t seem to have entirely mastered the art of existing within a living realm materially, rather than existing in its shadows. But even more than not having mastered the art, they also do not care that much about the art. Their priorities are elsewhere and it doesn’t entirely register as a consideration. That’s what I love.
Especially since this scene honestly makes it seem like the more jaw-dropping part of this is not gikon shenanigans but the number of shopping bags Matsumoto has. Like, Hitsugaya is not making that face about the gikon. This is about Matsumoto’s comment about her bags, LOL:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s not even just Matsumoto being deeply unselfconscious. If there were established gigai/gikon protocols for how to limit your impression on the living realm, I feel like at least Hitsugaya would care about them. Hitsugaya does not care. He barely cares when the Muppets Take Karakura High and he does not care about which of Orihime’s neighbors see them when they’re bringing in the Worm TV, LOL. Maybe he just immediately relinquishes that hope and is picking his battles here. Still, I feel like the main reason blending was even part of the conversation was because Rukia, as Soul Society’s current foremost expert, brought it up. But it’s on page 392 under the heading “Recommended but not Required” in the Advance Team “Before You Go!” pamphlet and these guys just cannot be bothered.
Though now that I think about it, I’m actually not sure why they’re not in gigai here:
Tumblr media
It’s not like they’d just come from battle and simply hadn’t gotten back into their gigai. They just spent all night going to retrieve them and walk to the house in them! And I mean, sure, take off your outside clothes (and your little ghost sandals asfajkfjlja), and I’m sure it’s more comfortable to not be in gigai, but unless Orihime’s house is a faraday cage (who’s to say it isn’t, though), isn’t this just attracting Hollows unnecessarily, AKA one of the primary reasons gigai feature so prominently for this mission? Especially since they are in gigai to talk to Yamamoto on the Worm TV, and also(?) to attempt jinzen later, which seems--well, that seems like Challenge Mode.
It really seems like they’re still trying to work out how they’re supposed to be using these things and it’s like, oh no, why am I still wearing this apron? Why AREN’T I wearing an apron? What are aprons for??

hello, recently i’ve been getting sexually harrased by old men on the internet because of my body. if you’re comfortable doing it, would you mind writing albedo comforting a reader who something similar happened to them? but please don’t describe it happening if you can
(was supposed to queue this for tomorrow but accidentally posted AGAIN but aight, early gift bbs)
Hey anon, first of all, I wanted to check if you're doing better after that ordeal? Have you talked to someone you trusted about this? Second, I hope you told those mean men off, they are truly disturbing and disgusting. I wish that after this, you'd still manage to be comfortable with yourself :((
Thinking about those kind of behaviour makes me gag and I hope that you'll find comfort someday and soon.
As for your request, I will make sure that there won't be any triggers in this answer. And so to avoid that this will be bulleted, I hope you can take your mind off with this fic!
White Lily
Albedo providing Comfort to Reader after an Unpleasant Encounter
Tumblr media
Do you remember the meaning of White Lilies that Albedo endearingly associated you with?
Delicate, untainted, the Alchemist handled you like you were the finest dust of gold carefully drifting down the side of a beaker.
Besides wanting his White Lily for himself, Albedo acquired your heart to ensure your protection. To nurture you, bloom your brightest, watch your white petals glow in healthy conditions and prosper.
In his great care, the man almost IMMEDIATELY noticed how you wilt and appear so dim. Because to other people Albedo barely understands and cares for others, he pays attention to things he cares about the most and that includes you.
Albedo doesn't approach you immediately, as he was scared to worsen your mood even more with a wrong move.
His touches are minimal, aiming to guide you to the extra chair in his laboratory, and place around a soft wool blanket around you.
He'll stand a good distance away but still keeping the keenest eye on you as he watches for any signs of when your mood switches, either good or bad.
This gentleman will not invade your personal space during this time and it's up to you if you ask for cuddles or urge him to come closer. He really just doesn't want to hurt you any further.
He’ll indulge you like a mistress with a bell.
While in his company, he’ll provide you with things that will distract you, but in the Albedo Way™: he’ll turn on the burners so you can watch and listen to the bubbles the hopefully-harmless liquids produce, he’ll sketch beside you so you can get distracted by the sheer beauty of it; and your favorite: plucking a branch and giving it life in front of your eyes.
When it comes to physical comfort, Albedo usually has his hand and lips on your head. Why? It’s the safest route in his opinion.
He knows the importance of physical contact and how it comforts people, however he doesn’t master that thing.
If he gets really into it, he’ll softly nuzzle the crown of your head, softly stroking your hair while murmuring against it.
If you’re not ready to talk about it, that’s fine
But this genius and his aura has a way to coax out answers out of people. You’ll be leaning to his touch, “my beloved petal, together we’ll make sure you’re back to your usual blossom. I’ll always be here with you, and I will be sure to listen once you trust me enough,” and then suddenly you’re spilling your guts out to him.
The more you talk about the incident, his grip around you will be tighter, inching you closer to his chest with a protective grasp around you.
It’s like instinct: like he’s physically protecting you, pulling you away from the pain.
But also a way to make sure you don’t see the burning glare in those once soft, teal eyes.
Million paradigms stir in his mind as he continues to listen, and soon enough (even without uttering the person’s name), he’s already figured out who he needs to brea- confront.
“No matter what they say, darling, you are worth every inch of respect and innocent adoration. They are nothing but monsters, aimed to wreck havoc and haunt your mind. But know that you are more than just your body, you’re made of the most beautiful soul I have ever seen.
I will make sure that you live in a world free of insecurities, so that everyone would see you for who you truly are.”
C O M F Y HOURS
What??? Experiment? Cursed sword whomst?
Everything is off the table, full schedule suddenly as empty as the abyss as he asks if there’s something or somewhere you want to be other than his messy and crammed laboratory
Do you want to be away from people? You’re suddenly making your way to one of his camps outside of Mondstadt with a beautiful view
Do you want to be distracted more? Albedo’s an expert at keeping someone entertained and distracted because of Klee: he can teach you how to sketch, read a book to you (Legend of the Sword anyone?), heck he’ll even try to sing just to get you smiling again
All throughout the day, you’ll notice how reluctant or reeling he might be when it comes to touching you
Taking a split second of a pause before placing his hand on you, even if it’s the most innocent place he can put his hand on
He’ll tap his finger on your palm, before slowly wrapping it with his
Don’t get him wrong, he’s not just doing this because he thinks you’re uh ‘sensitive’
He just doesn’t want you to think of him the same as those guys; it would break his heart to make you uneasy, much more scaring you
Because he loves you not because of your physical properties but the warmth you provide to his cold soul
And that what makes you truly beautiful, White Lily
Bonus: He instigates Kaeya into hunting down those nasty humans, to the point that he bribes the Cavalry Captain with a proper self-portrait sketch just for this one occasion.
Tumblr media
Writing this gave me such soft hours vibe hnghng- I hope that everyone feels safe and comforted anytime they need it. Somewhere out there you will find comfort. I hope you enjoy this, anon! And I hope you’re feeling much better now <33 sorry if this came out looking like a general comforting reader hc than the intended scenario ackkk

The brothers with an MC that's obsessed with their hips HCs please! Like constantly touching their waist and cant help but looking if they're wearing a tight shirt
THE BROTHERS REACTING TO AN MC OBSESSED W/ THEIR HIPS
sheeeesh, id be too :).
this post is just “the brothers getting the appreciation they deserve and forgetting about their self hatred for a sec”
✖️ GENDER NEUTRAL MC ✖️
Tumblr media
Unsurprisingly, he catches on pretty quickly.
At first, it kind of catches him off guard. His waist/hips aren’t normally the thing people tend to flatter him for. But it’s not like he hates it. He actually loves it.
He’s literally a goth mom that stays wearin his corset vests. MC deffo has a field day when he wears his fancy getup.
If MC is too scared to put their hands on him but wants to, he’ll most definitely notice, and encourage it when they’re alone.
He’s not one to dress FOR someone else, but it’s worth wearing a tight-fitted shirt if that means he gets a reaction out of MC.
Every time he catches their stare, he smirks and pushes his massive coat aside oh-so-casually. Just enough to give them what they want.
Tumblr media
He notices the staring, but thinks nothing of it. After all, he’s not a model for nothing, right?
One day, MC lets a comment about it slip, intentionally or not.
Mammon is reduced to ash. That is the end of him. RIP.
He’s never the same.
Before, the attention from modeling was just a side effect of being naturally handsome. A downside of it, even.
But now, his favorite human EVER has a FAVORITE part of him that they love? Because they pay attention to him that much?
And to him, that’s the best feeling in the world. If they like that part of him, he feels proud of having it. And proud that he wears a thin shirt and cropped jacket everyday.
One time, he brought them to one of his shirtless photoshoots.
Bad idea. The entire time, he was slightly flushed and shaky from their adorable reaction to seeing him.
UGH I LOVE HIM HES SO SWEET.
Tumblr media
It all started with that damned photo of him in a towel. We know the one.
Levi is very aware of everyone’s eyes on him.
So he gets super flustered when MC watches him for a prolonged amount of time.
But because of that big jacket of his, they have to eventually ask, “Have you ever considered just wearing a t-shirt? Maybe a long sleeved shirt?”
He’s confused, but changes into a slim fit long sleeve.
When MC continues to stare at him intently, he can feel himself shrink a little in embarrassment.
“Y-You’re silently judging me, aren’t you? Ahhh, forget it! This is exactly why Iive in the comfort of my jacket...”
It takes lots of encouragement, but he finally understands that MC does NOT feel revolted just by looking at him.
While he won’t give up wearing his jacket, he takes it off when the two are alone and playing video games.
His favorite thing in the world is allowing them to wrap their arms around his waist while he plays his video games.
Just like Mammon, it gives him butterflies thinking that someone loves his body when he can’t do it himself.
Tumblr media
Satan also notices the stares, but writes it off as nothing important similarly to Mammon.
He’s a bookworm. He could care less about his appearance when he’s immersed in the tragic downfall of history’s greatest knights.
But he finds it a bit... Cute? Endearing? Just the thought that something so irrelevant to himself is so captivating to this human nowhere near his power level.
In his mind chock-full of thousands of years of book reading, he envisions it as a rabbit falling in love with a wolf for its triangular ears.
He’s a little off put by the idea of them touching them in such a place, but in the moment, he understands it completely.
MC’s touch is gentle but firm— loving, is what it is.
Being the avatar of wrath has many downsides. Including being avoided at all costs by so many people, even by his own brothers at some points.
So it feels great to just feel absolutely adored by someone.
Tumblr media
We been knew.
He’s the embodiment of want. So he knows all about it. ‘It’ being the way MC discreetly sneaks glances at him from across the room.
And he goes wild for it.
He brings it up casually. Almost too casually.
“Look at how close we’re sitting MC~ I’m practically on top of you. But be careful, who knows what I’d do if you kept staring like that...”
Asmo is just waiting for the moment MC makes a move. He wants to see what it looks like for them to finally stop holding back. The mere thought of it gets his adrenaline pumping.
And as the two are posing for a selfie together, their hands instinctively go to his sides.
MC doesn’t even realize that they haven’t moved their hands even after the photo. They only realize when Asmo puts his hands over their own, smiling innocently.
“You’re too cute, MC...”
One thing that Asmo starts suggesting is slow dancing. Just the two of them, in his room swaying to the sound of his slow song playlist.
Simply enjoying each other to the tune of vintage ballroom rythms never seemed so beautiful.
Tumblr media
Beel has a body that many would go great lengths for. It doesn’t quite resonate with him, because eating well and exercising is just his thing. They’re hobbies.
While he gets lots of compliments about it (particularly from Asmo), he doesn’t think about the curves and edges of his frame very much. He only thinks about what muscles require what stretches and workouts.
And unfortunately, he doesn’t notice any of MC’s affection for his hips.
The prolonged hugs, the staring and flushed complexion. To him, it’s all part of their friendship.
Even if they outright say, “Beel. Ur thiccness is very good.”
It doesn’t hit him very hard. He’s like yea? And? 😌🤚
However, he does have a bit of internalized insecurities about his looks. It’s not necessarily his body, but how others react to... Him.
How many times has he met someone and they didn’t look the slightest bit intimidated? Exactly. He has a resting bitch face on an athlete’s body when he’s one of the sweetest demons alive.
So yes. He is insecure. But when MC finds even the most insignificant things about him to be endearing, it reminds him that, even for a second, he can be loved in his own skin.
Tumblr media
Just like his twin, he doesn’t particularly care for the way his body looks. Especially to others.
He couldn’t care less of what negative things anyone had to say about him, anyways. Been there, done that.
But he can’t help but notice the electricity buzzing through his tired limbs when MC keeps a lingering hand around his sides.
It’s a little odd, he notes. That such a small gesture causes his body to react like that. But it’s pleasant, he’ll admit.
And then he notices just how often it happens. Even when they’re not cuddling. MC will have a hand on his waist, for even a moment.
“MC, do you like touching me there? You don’t do it to anyone else, I’ve noticed.”
They are embarrassed— mostly because they never really realized they were doing it. As soon as they go to apologize, Belphie lets out his sweet giggle.
“It’s okay. I actually like it... It’s cute that you do it so absentmindedly.”

(Fem!Reader HC) May I request for Oikawa, Iwa, Daichi, Tsukki and Yams's girlfriends feeling insecure because the boys are surrounded by taller and slimmer (she's short and chubby) girls so she grows distant with them and starts to avoid them like the plague. How they find out, approach and reassure/comfort the girl will be up to you~ 💖 I understand if you dw to write this. ^-^ It's just, I've struggled with my looks for years and it's just ☹☹☹ Sending love and hugs 🥰 - 🍡 anon
has it been six months since i last posted sth here
yes.
Love, I’m so sorry everything took so long!! Your wonderful messages never failed to brighten up my day and I just think you’re the loveliest person I’ve ever met! I may not show it, via my blatant avoidance of this blog, but you’re amazing and I appreciate every message, thank you!!
Without further ado, I hope this was worth the wait (probably not, I haven’t written in half a year, but I tried my best) <3
Also, I didn’t do Daichi, Tsukki and Yams, as I went wayyy overboard with the headcanons (it’s 600+words each), but feel free to request them again in a separate ask, love :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oikawa and Iwaizumi comforting their insecure girlfriend (Plus-sized!Reader)
Warnings: Some self-loathing, but it turns fluffy afterwards
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You tried to even your breathing, (e/c) eyes glued to the horde of fangirls almost jumping on your boyfriend. Your hot, talented, brilliant, athletic boyfriend - Who, to your dismay, seemed adamant to keep flirting back.
Normally, you weren’t a jealous person - It’s a given when it comes to dating someone such as “The Great King”. That day, however, the green monster seemed to be rearing its ugly head, pushed upwards by all your deep-rooted insecurities. The girls he was surrounded with were stunning - Long, slim legs, the oversized sweater of the Seijoh uniform actually being oversized on them, the way they seemed to look so much better by your lovely boyfriend’s side than you.
“Y’know he’s only doing that to ensure Seijoh’s popularity or whatever bullshit he keeps spewing about it, right?”, a deep voice spoke from behind you, effectively startling you. How Iwaizumi could read you so well, that would always surprise you, but you supposed it came with years upon years of having to read his seemingly unreadable best friend. You tried to will away the tears that had formed in your eyes, letting out a small giggle at Hajime’s characteristic profanity.
“Oi, Shittykawa! Get your ass over here and greet your girlfriend!”, he yelled, effectively grabbing the attention of the entire fan-club and the man to whom it was dedicated. You felt a deep flush rising on your cheeks at the attention, prepared to listen to a quick dismissal from your boyfriend, but were instead met with a surprisingly feminine squeal.
Oikawa seemed to all but pounce on you, taking you into a tight hug and spinning you around a little. Placing you back down, his whiskey eyes seemed to have a gleam to them, effectively having lit up the second he’d seen you.
He tucked a stray strand of hair behind your ear, before pouting exaggeratedly.
“Why didn’t you say anything, love? I kept waiting and waiting and my beautiful girlfriend just wouldn’t show up!”
That’s when the previously-forgotten dread made its appearance again. He hadn’t even noticed you in the sea of pretty girls. But that’s alright - You should have seen it coming, ever since you started dating the most popular guy in your high-school. Just fake it ‘til you make it, c’mon, he made a joke, laugh, Y/N, dammit-
A bitter laugh left your lips, so aggressive it even startled Oikawa. 
“It’s quite alright, wouldn’t have expected you to, surrounded by all these pretty girls and all.” Another aggravated laugh left your lips, as you tried to sell it as a good-natured joke, but it was obvious that your boyfriend had definitely read through it. His expression seemed to darken, brows furrowing, before he quickly fell back into his well-rehearsed role, letting out an exaggerated gasp. 
“Oh, but you’re the prettiest one out of all of them! I’d never miss your gorgeous face!” He smirked, before squishing your cheeks lightly, eyes widening in a playful expression. “Actually”, he motioned towards the girls still watching you guys oh God- before promptly placing a hand around your shoulders, pulling you into his side protectively.
“Hey, everyone, look at my beautiful, lovely, gorgeous, girlfriend! Isn’t she the prettiest?”
The girls seemed to be whispering amongst themselves, confused expressions adorning their faces, before nodding shyly. You couldn’t have cared less, though - In the arms of the boy you loved, you were sure you’d never feel insecure ever again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Having your boyfriend be the ace of a popular volleyball team was proving to be an incredible experience, as you had the opportunity to witness not only the developing friendships on the team, but also the colossal amount of hard work that went into the winning streak they had been on for the past few matches.
You couldn’t be more proud - wearing Iwaizumi’s jersey in the stands, your voice louder than anyone else’s - Everything was going well, except for one little, tiny thing.
For once, along with the relentless Oikawa Tooru fanclub, a small group of girls had seemed to form around Iwaizumi, the only thing you could overhear being something about his “hands that were totally made for choking”. 
The bigger issue? They were all perfect. In their tiny, stupid skirts and their cute shirts and their sharp jawlines and sculpted faces and - Well, you had curves where others didn’t and you weren’t particularly proud of your body. Your thighs seemed larger than usual and you almost gasped at the sudden wave of despair washing over you. Why would he date you when he could easily have them?
You weren’t a masochist in any sense - However, you found yourself unable to turn off your eavesdropping, only hearing more and more things that would make you spiral into self-loathing. You felt overwhelmed, so you quickly grabbed your bag and hurried out of the room, finding a bench to sit on and simply breathe.
Not long afterwards, however, you heard lots of squeals - presumably from Iwa and Oikawa’s fanclub - and prepared yourself for what you’d have to witness.
To your surprise, however, as soon as the doors of the court opened, you could only see a tuft of black hair aggressively elbowing everyone in the crowd, dropping a nonchalant “sorry” here and there, before finally running straight into your arms.
He breathed in your perfume, still hugging you tightly, before letting go and grinning widely towards you.
Before he could speak, however, he found himself being interrupted by some loud squeals. Looking at you, he rolled his eyes playfully before shouting:
“Trashikawa, grab your stupid fanclub and get out of here, I can’t talk to (Y/N) properly!”
To your surprise, the setter’s face twisted into that annoying, cocky smirk of his, before he coyly replied: 
“Iwa-chan, maybe you should grab a hold of your fanclub! We’re well-behaved here, aren’t we?”, he smiled dazzlingly towards the nearest girl and you swore you saw her faint.
Upon glancing at your boyfriend, however, you quickly noticed his agape mouth, the surprised look quickly being overtaken by a frown, a hand grazing the back of his neck.
“Uh, thank you, ladies, I appreciate it, but I really wanted to talk to my girlfriend, so would you mind leaving us alone?”
He was being so genuine, you felt a pang of jealousy in your chest - It’s alright, he’s just happy to be supported, you had to remind yourself.
The ace had noticed your sour look, however, quickly turning back to you, mouth turned down into a scowl.
“Why the fuck can’t they stick to Shittykawa?”
You smiled giddily, before tangling a hand in his spiky locks. “Well that’s because you’re sweet, kind, genuine - muscular - and, uh”, you looked down embarrassedly, tucking a stray lock of hair behind your ear, “fuck, you should be with one of them, I don’t deserve you.”
Now, you’d seen an annoyed Iwa plenty of times, but this couldn’t be matched - His brows seemed to furrow until they almost disappeared, his mouth pressed into a tight scowl as he looked your face up and down, checking whether or not you were being serious. Upon noticing that indeed, that was the case, he pulled you into him a tad too aggressively, pushing your chin up lightly to gaze into your eyes. 
His glare seemed to soften, before he started peppering your face with kisses. 
“You”, kiss, “are”, kiss, “the best goddamn thing”, kiss, “that’s ever happened to me.”
Finishing with his assault of kisses, Iwaizumi gave you a soft smile, before glaring playfully. “If you ever think that any of those girls would interest me half as much as you do, you’re really just as much of an idiot as Trashikawa, you know.”
Finally, he looked around before promptly squeezing your thigh, his large hand almost engulfing it. A small smirk played on his lips as he rose his gaze back to yours.
“I promise I’ll show you how gorgeous you are when we get home.”

hi! i really like your posts, and I’ve seen you’re taking “emergency” requests, and I’m just feeling so lonely and socially awkard and uncomfortable lately, so I was wondering if you could make Kuroo and Akaashi hcs of how would they react to see their girl / s/o alone and away from people, it would really make me happy 🥺♥︎ thank you in advance! -ghosty anon👻
hello ghosty anon \(〇_o)/
I'm sorry to hear you’re feeling that way sweetheart, my messages and ask box are always open if you need someone to talk with <3
also ik it took me a bit to post this, school has been pretty hectic and my brain hasn't been in the mood to write lately so ty for being patient 
also i’m aware this definitely isn't the best + I apologize for that, but I hope it brings you comfort none the less :)
•Kuroo and Akaashi Comforting a Distant S/O•
warnings: none
genre: comfort + fluff 
characters: kuroo + akaashi
Tumblr media
•Kuroo•
kuroo had never known you to be a super outgoing person
you weren’t one to intentionally go our of your way to make new friends or strike up a conversation with a stranger
but the way you had been acting lately was definitely a stretch
you were practically avoiding any social contact with anyone, choosing to detach yourself from the world around you
you had even shied away from kuroo as well
he felt like he shouldn't push you to open up to him but he couldn't just sit there as you distanced yourself from anyone and everyone
so, as the two of you were walking home he decided now would be a good time to discuss the situation at hand,
“Hey Y/N?”
“Hm?”
“Have you been feeling alright lately?”
your steps faltered a little bit as you walked, you didn’t think he would notice your recent change in behavior
if you were being honest you thought you were the only one who had seen the shift in your world
“Yep, perfectly fine, why?”
kuroo slowed down a bit and caught your hand in his, intertwining his fingers with yours 
he swung your arms back and fourth as the two of you walked, hoping to make this conversation a little more comfortable for you by doing so,
“You’ve just seemed really distant lately, ya know? Just wanna make sure everything is alright in that pretty little head of yours.”
you smiled softly at his dorky compliment before letting out a soft sigh
in all honesty, you had been avoid discussing this whole thing with kuroo
the emotions that had been plaguing you lately seemed trivial in your eyes and you had worried he'd also take it as such
none the less, he had strewn the topic out in the open so you couldn't exactly ignore him now,
“I guess I've just been pretty uncomfortable with socializing lately. And I hate it because I want to be with other people but it just makes me so uneasy,”
you let out another exaggerated breath, hating how stupid you sounded 
“I don't know, this probably sounds dumb, sorry babe.”
kuroo stopped in his tracks, your connected limbs bringing you to a halt as well
he tugged at your arm and pulled you into a hug
“It’s not dumb Y/N, your feelings will never be dumb to me. I may not understand what or why you’re feeling this way but I still care.”
you wrapped your arms around him, returning the hug as you snuggled your face into his chest
“Thank you Tetsuro.”
he squeezed you tightly in response before pulling away and ruffling your hair
“You know, the team was going to go to lev’s house and hang out if you wanted to come. Maybe you can ease into socializing that way? Or you could just hang with kenma and play games? That doesn't really require talking. Or you don't have to and we can just stay home and hang out.”
you giggled at his scrambled attempts to cheer you up
you had grown pretty close to the team ever since you and kuroo had begun dating to testing the waters by hanging out with them didn’t seem half bad.
“Alright, it wouldn't hurt to try.”
“That’s the spirit! And just so you know, we can go home anytime if you start to feel uncomfortable, okay?”
“Okay.”
and that’s how you ended up sitting on lev’s couch, playing animal crossing with kenma as you snuggled up with kuroo
you slowly but surely felt your walls crumble as you munched on snacks and lightly chit chatted with the boys around you
it was the most comfortable and sociable you had felt in a while and you had your boyfriend to thank for helping you break out of your shell
Tumblr media
•Akaashi•
akaashi didnt really understand why you had turned down so many outings lately
sure you weren't the most outgoing person but you usually loved to spend time with friends 
recently though, there always seemed to be a perfectly constructed excuse of why you couldn't attend that followed each invitation you received 
akaashi usually allowed you to open up about things you were going through on your own time, figuring you would let him in when you were ready
this time however, he had a feeling he should interfere 
one morning he had overheard your friends inviting you to your favorite restaurant 
that particular establishment was one of the only ones in the area that served your favorite dish so you never turned down an opportunity to dine there
akaashi was happy that you would finally be able to spend some time out of the house and with your friends, it had been quite a while since that had occurred
but his joy died down once he heard you refuse their offer and tell them you’d try again another day
why were you saying no?
as far as he knew, there was nothing stopping you from going
so, despite his usual approach to these types of situations, he pulled you aside later that day to have a conversation
“Y/N, is there something bothering you?”
“What do you mean Keiji?”
“Lately it seems like you’ve been avoiding going out with your friends.”
you sigh in defeat, of course he would notice
akaashi was a very observant person, always noticing the smallest changes in detail
so it wasn't a surprise that he would detect how antisocial you had become lately
you had been planning to sit down and talk with him eventually, but the feeling that you were being overdramatic always seemed to cloud your thoughts 
overtime you felt as though it would just be a bother to even bring up the subject, so you never did
now, standing before him, you had no other choice but to come clean,
“I just haven’t really felt the most comfortable with the thought of actually socializing with people, even friends. I wish I could but I just cant bring myself to. Sorry, I know that sounds silly.”
akaashi brought his hand up to your cheek and gave you a soft smile,
“Your emotions are valid Y/N, there’s no need to apologize.”
you leaned into his touch and gave him a small smile of your own
“Thank you.”
he brushed his thumb across your cheek in response before speaking up again
“If you feel comfortable with it, you could come over later and we can do something to get your mind off things.”
you nodded in agreement, finding the idea of your boyfriend’s company much more appealing than anyone else’s at the moment
and that evening you found yourself knocking on the door of akaashi’s home, waiting anxiously on his front steps
as soon as the door opened you were greeted with a familiar smell
“Is that what I think it is?”
he grinned at your question and stepped to the side, motioning for you to enter
there on the kitchen counter were two plates of your favorite food
the same food that you missed out on that night due to your lack of motivation to be with others
“Keiji you didn't have to do all this.”
“I wanted to my love, now here, bring that to the coffee table.”
he handed you one of the plates as he turned to grab some drinks from the refrigerator
as akaashi watched you snuggle up on the couch he felt love flow throughout his body
cooking a meal for you didn't bother him at all 
if it meant he could bring you peace of mind, It was all worth it
the rest of the night you two watched movies in each others embrace, enjoying the peace you both brought one another

Hi Queen ❤
I love your headcanons so much and I don’t know if you’ve ever done one of these, but I’d really like to imagine what it would be like if Mikasa and Reiner fell in love after the end of the manga, what this discovery would be like and how they would deal with this!
(Forgive me for my lousy english hahaha)
Hello dear, thank you for the Ask! 💖 It really helps me to envision a more ideal post-ending universe because the potential ending right now does not look promising that both of them will somehow survive (together) because I am foreseeing one of them voluntarily dies to save another person. I hope i'm wrong! 😢 I've only done a tiny snippet of ReiKasa in this Post-Rumbling HC AU. But, here's what I envision how it could possibly be IF they survive & they happen:
Reiner x Mikasa (ReiKasa) Post-Rumbling AU (Gen) Headcanon #16
Tumblr media
Before we delve into Post-Rumbling period, it's interesting to observe the tiny moments where the seeds of trust and possibly, love between these two former enemies turned allies might have possibly begun sprouting.
The Rumbling
We've seen the way Reiner had implied on the plane in ch.133, how Eren might want to be stopped by someone. Reiner was using himself as a pretext; an example. If HE was the one with the FT & somehow finding himself unable to control it, he'd want to be stopped by someone he knows is capable of doing so (someone more powerful & stronger than he is) When he said that sentence, he was gazing at Mikasa.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are 2 implications here, i) He is indirectly admitting in front of everyone that Mikasa is his weakness, like a failsafe. The one he knows who can take him down if he's the one with this enormous power & he's losing control, ii) Because to him, ever since they were younger, Eren is her family & a sensitive subject to her. Him voicing out his opinion and indirectly hinting that Eren is beyond the path of no return will hurt Mikasa's feelings & emotional state.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
During the Paths Intermission, the moment Eren basically told the alliance to go fuck themselves, that he will keep moving forward for his freedom, while the alliance members are free to fight him if that is what they want; Reiner was horrified to know that Eren basically confirmed his deduction & how much pain and devastation Mikasa would be in upon receiving the awful truth from Eren himself. Even after pleading to Eren to let her share the burden of his sins, which as direct as it could have been to "I don't want to be so far from you. I want to be with you through both light & darkness inside of you. Please come back to us." Mikasa still believed that the previous Eren that she knew is still there somewhere, which is no longer the case.
The shock-induced tears in Mikasa's eyes - seeing her in pain, hurts Reiner too. He'd knew how heartbroken she would be.
In Ch.135, when everyone was on the verge of dying as they're losing the battle with the raised forms of past titan shifters, Mikasa reached her breaking point & Reiner felt helpless, because he was at his last limit & Mikasa was planning to make herself the primary target just to buy the rest a little bit more time.
There's this woman who's fighting towards an expected death in front of him - any man would be an idiot for not seeing how foolish yet selfless and brave this last female warrior of Paradis was. She's always been a fearless woman who has their backs and protects their fronts. He has never stopped respecting this woman. This might have been the starting point for that seed to have sprouted inside Reiner.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If Annie's timely rescue never came and they truly met their end there, the only regret Reiner has was he couldn't do anything else but watch this woman's final moments without being able to do anything to support her before his own ensuing end.
When Levi, Jean and Connie all collectively & firmly agrees that killing Eren is the only thing that stands between the world's survival, Reiner was silent the whole time. He believed he has no right to say anything, but he saw the vulnerable look on her face the moment Jean reiterated their ultimatum: "We need to kill Eren."
Tumblr media
Reiner did what he does best: he took charge. When Reiner told her, "You go help Armin." He was indirectly telling her, "You do what you can. I will shoulder your burden with Jean. Let me be the strength for you to do what needs to be done." This was Reiner's way of telling her, he will carry her burden for her and shelter her from an unbearable pain. Just like how she told Eren much earlier in Paths. Reiner's indirectly telling Mikasa that she's important to him too.
Tumblr media
This was the moment that the seed had sprouted within her heart. She realized that Reiner's communicating to her in the way only she would understand. How much she feels for Eren, Reiner feels for her in the same way because you can't give a reason why you care for or love someone. You just do. It just happened without signs. Annie, however, was able to catch that short but impactful interchange between them.
Post-Rumbling
They barely survive the last stand against Eren's final form but they did with Ymir's divine intervention in Humanity's New Dawn.
Reiner sustains extremely heavy injuries on his physical body. Mikasa is emotionally & psychologically affected by Eren's true death.
The remaining humanity struggles to rebuild from the ashes of destruction. It was beyond devastation. The world is almost completely annihilated but hope is a powerful energy. Hope persists.
Reiner sees her grieving - like a pair of wheels suspended in motion - trapped while the rest of the world moves around her. She refuses to eat, she barely sleeps but when she does, she would toss and turn around restlessly. Annie tells him in passing that when Mikasa sleeps, her body contorts and freezes simultaneously like she's in a lot of pain.
Seeing her drifting through the days like a soulless vessel pains him a lot. No one could humanly survived what she had to go through without serious ramifications towards her emotional and psychological state. Mikasa becomes withdrawn and sullen.
Yet, he retains his distance like he always does & watch silently from the sides as Annie, Armin & Jean tried to reach out to her to no avail. Reiner himself is haunted by his failed attempt to hold the Founder's original form down that, in a way, had forced Mikasa to do what needs to be done. He feels responsible that he couldn't prevent her from having to go through those painful yet pivotal moments of securing humanity's survival. The day the alliance managed to save the world, well, the world that she built for Eren inside her heart was destroyed in return.
One day, she mysteriously disappears without trace. A panicking Armin searches on his own but Annie tells Reiner that Mikasa's missing, nowhere to be found. Reiner and Armin later found her at the crater where Eren's last resting place had been. The exact same location where she had to slay him with her own two blades.
Mikasa says that she just feels lost and empty. Like there's a huge dark void inside her body that she can't escape from. She just sits there amongst the dust and debris, staring blankly at a makeshift, unmarked grave. She confides that she's terrified of falling asleep because she sees Eren's face in her nightmares.
Armin wants to console her but Annie holds him back as she notices Reiner already making his way forward and settles himself next to her. Armin understands what Annie was trying to do.
Reiner only tells Mikasa, "You don't have to do this alone...Lean on us." He offers his hand, despite knowing she wouldn't even touch him. "When you feel that you can no longer breathe, I'll breathe for you. If you feel like you're drifting, I will hold you."
It takes her a while but she accepts his hand and he holds it tight in his. Reassuring her that he is here to stay for as long as she needs him to be.
Little either of them know that it would possibly be forever.
It is Annie who helps to bridge these two together with Armin's help.
Ever since the day they talked, Mikasa slowly finds herself regaining an ounce of strength. Reiner talks a lot to her and offers his silent company as they go for walks together so she does not feel alone.
Tumblr media
Reiner makes sure that he'll check in with Mikasa from time to time when he's not supporting the remaining forces with rebuilding, too frequent not to be noticed by everyone close to them in the survivor's settlement. However, none of them questions him about it. It is an understood, unspoken notion that Reiner cares a lot about Mikasa, and her for him eventhough she's being subtle about it. Armin could see Mikasa's eyes lit up whenever Reiner is nearby.
Mikasa shares a living space with Annie and Pieck. When her night terrors get too much that Mikasa thrashes around, screaming in pain despite being in a deep sleep, the two former shifters know that they couldn't possibly restrain the Ackerman girl physically on their own. They called for Armin, Jean and Reiner for help. When Armin and Jean hesitate to hold her down, it is Reiner who holds her tight even when Mikasa's unconsciously trying to struggle against him. They could see Reiner's face holding back his own physical pain from fighting against the immense resistance coming from her. But he'd never released his hold until she eventually wakes up and calms down. He stayed with her until the break of dawn.
After that night, however, Reiner seems to be pulling himself away from Mikasa as he couldn't get over his guilt and his helplessnesss as he also didn't want Mikasa to think that he's trying to take advantage of her vulnerability. The problem is, when he avoids Mikasa, she reverts back to the darkness she's slowly overcoming with Reiner's help and he's becoming miserable himself.
This frustrates Armin, Annie, Jean, Levi and even Pieck because it was fairly obvious to everyone but the two people in question that both Reiner and Mikasa are self-sabotaging and self-punishing themselves from pursuing something more than friendship despite their beating hearts calling out for each other.
Mikasa feels she's betraying her memories of Eren and she's afraid of moving on lest she would forget about him. Reiner feels he has no right to offer Mikasa anything more than friendship because she deserves someone better than him.
Mother's Intuition
Reiner's mother, Karina, finds herself naturally drawn to this young woman who seems to have her son's attention, even when he's trying very hard not to be obvious about it. She catches Reiner staring (longingly, she dare say) at the female warrior of Paradis from afar.
Apart from Mr. Leonhardt's daughter, she too, helps to bring her son and Mikasa closer. Karina has witnessed this woman's bravery and have heard from both Gabi and Reiner of her selflessness when she had saved both her son and her niece's lives. Through Reiner's story, Karina sympathizes with the pain this young woman is going through.
Reiner tells her that he feels helpless that he isn't able to help Mikasa and that she hasn't been eating well. Therefore, Karina brings her homemade meal and visits the young woman, wanting to get to know her better. Mikasa doesn't want to be impolite and relents to having the sudden company.
However, the moment Karina holds her hands to offer her comfort, Mikasa breaks down. She had lost 3 mothers/maternal figures in her life: her own, Carla & Hange. For some odd reason, she feels grateful to have an opportunity to be held by a mother again, even if it wasn't her own.
Karina finds herself growing fond of this young woman and deep inside believes that Mikasa and her son are meant for each other.
It is Karina who advises Reiner to fight for his own happiness and her mother's intuition tells her that his feelings isn't as one-sided as he thinks. Karina urges her son to tell Mikasa how he really feels and after all the years of fighting wars for Marley, Reiner needs to fight one last war: the one within his own heart and to win the heart of the one woman who had conquered his.
However, the relief entourage that arrives from Hizuru, led by Kiyomi Azumabito prevents him from telling Mikasa how he truly feels. He knows that she is destined to become the new empress of Hizuru and that her future would be brighter without him being in her way.
Mikasa tells him of her decision to ascend the imperial throne and Reiner feigns happiness for her decision, reassuring her that she will make a great empress and that she would have a better future there. Mikasa takes Reiner's words as him indirectly telling her to move on with her life without him in it.
Reluctantly, Mikasa leaves for Hizuru. Karina is upset that her son is still sacrificing himself & his own feelings even after being relieved of his Titan powers and its curse.
Karina tells him, "You've lived your life for me and for our family, Reiner. Now it's time for you to live for yourself."
Reiner thinks he's lost the only chance he still has left as Mikasa is already en route to the East Sea country. It is Armin who tells him that the Azumabito's ship is still docked at the nearest harbor because Armin has suspicions that Reiner will change his mind.
When Reiner, Armin, Jean and Annie reach the harbor, the sun is almost setting and Reiner finally revives his dwindling courage to tell her how he truly feels about her and he would like to remain by her side if she'd allow it.
Kiyomi forewarns Reiner that if he is serious about her kin, then he would have to sacrifice his newly-found freedom from being a soldier and titan shifter to become prince consort to their new imperial monarch.
Reiner only says, "I am as good as dead without Mikasa and my freedom means nothing if I'm spending the rest of my life without her."
In the sunset of the New World built from ashes, the two young loves finally seize the courage to pledge their hearts to one another with a kiss; the first of the many in their life together, which is only beginning.
*Continues in Pt. II

heyyy! how r u? i just discovered your blog and I really love your writing 😭😭 soo i was wondering if I can request a hc for oikawa, um so his s/o begins to receive messages from the oikawa fangirls telling them that they doesn't deserve him and insulting her body and things like that and oikawa finds out and he comforts her;; idk if that makes sense sorry but that idea was in my head all week 😿😿 (also sorry for my bad english and ily🥺🥺💕)
Oikawa’s Fangirls Bullying his S/o
I was really nervous for how this would turn out because this was requested as a fic instead of headcanons! anyway i hope i did it justice! Sorry that it took so long as well
*****************************************************************************************************
Dating Oikawa Tooru was something else, he was the perfect person -in your eyes-, he was gorgeous, had an amazing personality and well somehow, in an amazing turn of luck? He was your, this perfect, amazing man was yo-
"Baby? hello? are you in there"
You turn your face to the side and see you oikawa giggling at you and looking adorable. You were both currently laying on your bed and relaxing.
"Im here Tooru, just thinking,"  you smile at him, " thinking about how lucky i am to be with you."
Oikawa absolutely adored and loved you, and everyone knew it. You, Iwa-chan, The team, hell even his parents… but for some reason his personal fanclub decided that they’d ignore that because THEY wanted him and you didn’t deserve him. You never could understand the people that obsessed over someone to that point.
Oikawa gushes at you ,"Awww Baby! you think of me? thats so adorable!," he cups your face in his hands, "i think about you all the time as well!"
You could find some reasoning when people obsess over a famous person or celebrity, i mean you had your fair share of celebrity crushes but over a teen boy who is just being passionate about his favourite sport? It didn’t sit right with you, especially when that teen boy is your boyfriend it’s even worse.
"So….. what exactly were you thinking about me? all good stuff i hope?"
you grab his hands in yours, "Just things Tooru nothing important."
You didn’t hate the people in his 'club' honestly you were just annoyed by them, Tooru would always come to you and complain about not having any alone time at school. This turned into him coming over to yours after school to study, you enjoyed it because he would help when you were stuck and you’d stop him from overworking yourself.
Your face scrunched up at the thought of his club.
"Ok something is up" Oikawa says as he pulls you to sit up on the bed with him, "What’s wrong?"
When you to got together Tooru had warned you that some people might bother you, something about his 'loving and loyal' fans and how they’d be disappointed. You didn’t think much of it because people aren’t gonna stoop low enough to try break you guys up…. right?
"Its fine tooru i’m just a bit stressed" it wasn’t necessarily a lie but it wasn’t the truth either.
It started off simple, you were walking down the hall to go to and find Oikawa only to find two or three girls hanging off him with him looking very panicked, honestly you just brushed it off, absolutely trusting your boyfriend. So his fans upped the anté.
"Its obviously more than that doll," he looks at you softly "Please talk to me?"
You started to hear rumors around the school about Oikawa cheating on you with some different girl everyday, you tried to ignore it and brush it off as just a rumor but when it involved the girl that you hated and who hated you? Thats when you confronted him. He immediately denied everything and both him and Iwaizumi (who was with him) were confused because they hadn't heard anyone say that.
"Tooru like i said its nothing serious," you turn away from him and lie back down.
You two had been dating for about 3 months and all the fans plans of breaking the two of you up had failed and this is where it got serious. You were checking your locker one morning when a note fell out. It was a death threat. For you to stay away from oikawa. They started off once a day before increasing after a week.
"Bullshit," he peers down at you, "whatever this is, its hurting you and i wont stand for anything OR anyone hurting you!"
About a week ago they somehow found your phone number, they had been texting you death threats and insults and it was really starting to wear down on you. To the point you DID start to slowly avoid Oikawa. He noticed straight away, he is very observant after all and that leads to where you are now. The both of you sitting on his bed talking.
"Tooru i’m serious its noth-" a soft ding resounds around the room as your phone gets a notification, you turn to grab your phone but he grabs it before you.
You can’t see the screen but from the sound of the notification you knew immediately who it was. You watched as His face read the message, he tapped the screen and opened up your phone. He scrolled up to the first message and read all the way back down, his face scrunched up before turning almost sinister.
"why didn’t you tell me?"
"tooru i-"
"do you not trust me?" He looks at you with sad, pleading eyes.
A heavy silence falls between you, sitting up you turn away from him and try to hold in your sobs. You didn’t want him to know about this situation, you didn’t want to have him stand up for you and prove what the girls said as true, even though they are.
Everything they said was true, you were weak, you were ugly and not worth his time or effort or any-
"Stop it, look at me," he gets up and kneels in front of you holding your hands, "You are amazing! honestly! i don't know who the hell this person is but they don’t know shit about you or me or us!"
He lets go of your hands and cups you face.
"You are my everything Baby, i don’t need anyone or anything else as long as I have you ok?"
"Ok.."
*****************************************************************************************************
This turned out way better than I thought! anyway I hope you enjoy and I’ve got more requests and posts im working on!

Also I wanted to make a post talking about this
N is such a lanky skinny lad. You find a rare candy on the floor in his room but otherwise just from that and how Ghetsis is with him one could probably glean Ghetsis probably kept him on a strict diet to maintain this idea of an ~ideal king~ who was free of worldly wants other than the stuff in his room that clearly must have sufficed for the nearly 20-or so years N was locked in there to keep him 'innocent' and child-like, and that rare candy was probably the one treat N would be allowed as a reward. Or of course, he was keeping it there for his Pokemon friends. But I like to imagine the former, and that N secretly has a HUGE sweet tooth.
I... really think N would be the type to gain weight from getting to eat a lot. And I'm saying this as a chubbo myself who is quite on the fence about fat characters who are shown to love food--
I both hate when anime/anime style games have skinny characters who get to wolf down massive meals and are seen as cute for it despite staying skinny while the fat character has constant food and fat jokes made around them (looking at you, Danganronpa 2 and also Genshin Impact to an extent) but at the same time I adore the 'chubby soff chef/baker' trope (NOT looking at you, Danganronpa 2, my heart is for Twogami only) and the idea of a character who is normally skinny and very active getting to 'settle down' after the rush and adventure of the main story, getting to relax and indulge in their favourite food and snacks without having to worry and getting some pudge, or 'going domestic' if you will. I haven't watched any of the Avengers films past the first and a few clips of others but I'm guessing this is partially what happened to Thor. At the same time I realise, why should I have to justify it? Can fat people not simply be allowed to enjoy food? Can skinny people not simply be allowed to enjoy food without having to 'worry' about gaining weight as if it's a bad thing? And to that I say, yes, of course they can, and fuck the stigma attached to it.
Anyway, I just LOOOOVE to imagine N finally trying out new food on his adventures, or maybe even after he reunites with the TouTous, unlearning the strict ways dear old Dicksis instilled into him and gettin chubby. Like it could go two ways;
On his own he might initially feel too stuck in certain ways and be a bit intimidated seeing so many options and stick to what he knows; fruits, veggies, whatever his Pokemon friends and partners would have; very green and healthy but at the same time very simple, boring and bland. He'd most definitley be intruiged seeing the kind of food other people eat but initially would feel he'd have to resist the 'temptation' and avoid cafes/restaurants all together until he finally reunites with the TouTous who are worried sick about him and see he's all scruffy from living as a hobo for 2 years and probably had absolutely not had a good meal in forever so they sit him down at whatever diner they come to first that's open at 3am and order him a big thicc stack of pancakes (vegan for him, of course, guessing his food preferences as such just to be safe) and start bombarding him with questions about where he's been and how he is and WHY DID HE DISAPPEAR only to pause when they notice him poking it and staring at it rather nervously. How does one even EAT this 'panned-cake'? And surely it all can't be for him!
Of course it's for him, he looks practically starved to death, so he takes a bite and a whole new world has opened up for him, it melts in his mouth and makes him feel so warm and fuzzy inside, bringing a huge smile to his face, and he inhales the entire stack, excitedly talking about his adventures and catching up with the TouTous. Of course this would go on for a long time and N would probably timidly ask for any other food recommendations while they're there and even though it's probably just cheap 'nasty' stuff they'd try a little bit of everything together and N feels like his mind has been BLOWN. He's missed out on so much!! He's gotta try more! So the TouTous help broaden his horizons by introducing him to all sorts of delicious meals and snacks and N learns to loosen up, enjoy himself and learn it's okay to indulge!
The other way it could go is if N gets the courage to straight up go for it and discovers new food on his own. That same moment of bliss where he tastes something brand new that lights up his tastebuds and makes him realise how much he's missed out on. I've always imagined he probably has money from Ghetsis squirreled away somewhere so as someone who discovers his enormous sweet tooth and loses all self restraint he'd most definitley buy one of everything from some Kalosian bakery and sit in a forest clearing trying EVERYTHING with his Poke-pals and just having a grand old time
Fast forward to reuniting with Touko and Touya where they notice he's plumped up a bit and-- let's be real, on his own N would try to learn all about human views on pretty much anything and would probably feel some anxiety about his weight at some point -- even though it's perfectly natural for Pokemon to do it while hibernating and to keep safe for winter, human society views gaining weight as some kind of moral failing, but of course the TouTous would be more than happy just to see him and would obviously think he looks super cute with a fluffier body they can hug and squish like a tol marshmallow
Just !! AAAA either way the TouTous would 100000% be supportive as well as Cheren and Bianca (who I also hc as a chubby ball of sunshine) who all suggest new stuff for him to try as well. I also like to think N would love to get into cooking himself as well, since he can apply his love of maths and equations to it to try and find the perfect combinations of ingredients to make the most delicious dish that he would also love to share!
Except for that 'mathematical bagel'. It just makes everyone angry looking at it.
(On a slightly serious note, at that point he'd probably lose a bit of the pompousness (which he does have a tiny bit of in bw1) of some of his concepts of 'elegant vs ugly formulas' when it comes to his opinions of a good meal, as in he'd value a simple dish he may have previously considered 'ugly' for being 'basic' and dislike how arrogant and pretentious 'fancier' dishes can be. Like what the fuck is the point of a deconstructed cheesecake, or deconstructed anything! That's just a gentrified version of being a kid who eats all the lunchable bits separate!)
But yes tldr; let N enjoy food! Let N be chubby! Let chubby N enjoy food and cooking!!! Let him be a soff boy who's perfectly squishy to hug and would 100% love to learn how to cook great meals to share!

1000th post!🎉🎉🎉
We got there! We did it! 
I want to say thanks to everyone in the fandom for making it such a welcoming space and making me want to make a thousand posts here. I wouldn’t still be here if it weren’t for how awesome you all are. This really is a family more than a fandom and I love everyone for that 💖
And all the questions I received up until now are right here below the read more, so let’s just jump into it:
From @kokinu09: F*ck, Marry, Kill: Zed, Addison, Bucky 😂
You would choose this for me!
Okay, so...first off this is an incredibly weird thing for me to do, but I'll try my best 😂😅 I am also going to use the whole 'Bed, Wed, Behead' rhyme because...well, PG blog trying to avoid that awful profanity (I kid, but y'know how it goes around here 😂) so:
Bed: I guess based on character *age* I'd have to go with Bucky, and actor age too, as I believe of the 3 available Bucky is the only one not supposed to be like...under the age of consent. And Trevor is the only one in his 20's of the bunch so...yeah 😂😂
Wed: ...I guess Addison? Is there a rule we have to stay married? If not, a quick an easy annulment and, if we do, it'll be a marriage of convenience and we'll both do our own thing without caring too much. A nice easy solution 😅
Behead: I mean...some hc’s are that zombies can detach body parts, right? So that means in theory you could remove the head and nothing bad would happen? 😂 even just kill...zombies are technically undead as is, so I wouldn't have to do anything. Long live loopholes! 😂😂
From @kokinu09:  Favorite character in Mario Cart /Kart:
I...don't tend to play all that much, it's been quite a while since my last foray....but if I remember right I tended to go with Peach, Waluigi or Yoshi. Idk why, but those names stick out to me as memorable 😂
From @keepswingin​:  How old are you/when is your birthday (I am so interested by peoples ages because I enjoy guessing and I already guessed that you’re older than me soooo maybe 22/23ish?)
I am 22 and my birthday is in early October 😊 You were right on the money with that guess!
From @keepswingin​:  What is your favorite thing to write (fluff angst drama, etc)
Ooooh, that’s a tough one! Truthfully I enjoy writing all genres, and different styles too because part of what I love most about writing is improving my ability, which is why I love feedback so much (not so subtle hint that I’m always up for critique here 😂), and I think one of the best ways to improve is to keep a broad horizon, so I enjoy challenging myself with all kinds of types of writing!
I’d say my absolute favourite is probably...drama, though. I think one of the best elements of any good story is a great conflict that drives the characters through the plot, and drama’s one of the best ways to bring that out. Plus with drama you can play with other elements like angst, mystery, etc, so I love getting to try and throw that in!
From @keepswingin:  Are you an only child? Do you have any siblings?
I am... not an only child! I have one sibling, so I come from a fairly small family 😊
From @keepswingin:  Something you’ve always enjoyed (book, show, movie, etc)
Hmmm...it’s gonna sound cheesy, but improvement. I’m a perfectionist at heart, and part of just my personality is that I love trying new things. But at the same time, I want to be the best I can be at whatever I do, and really push myself in new directions and work as hard as I can to achieve whatever potential I have, and maybe if I’m really lucky I can push beyond that.
Of course, that doesn’t mean I’m always successful, or that life doesn’t get in the way, but it’s definitely something I’ve enjoyed ever since I was a little kid.
Also, the movie Stardust. It’s a go to and I love it. 😊😂
From @keepswingin: favourite hobby?
Well, I tend to keep up with a lot of hobbies, so it’s difficult to pick one...
Having said that, I’ve done horse riding ever since I was 3. I was around horses since practically birth, so I grew up as one of those horse girls way past the phase when it was considered acceptable, and was going to go into the equestrian business for a long, long time! 
I have had a break from horse riding, but I’m going back to it again and it really brings me so much joy that, even though I adore my other hobbies, I have to admit horse riding is one that holds a special place in my heart.
From @keepswingin: Do you like video games/have you played any?
I’m not huge on video games, but I’m certainly not averse to them either!
I enjoy a good let’s play (cause I’m cheap and poor and it means I don’t have to buy a ton of games and/or consoles or ‘git good’ as it were) but don’t tend to play a lot of games myself, though I like watching stuff that’s either action, horror, or story-based, as those really do tend to appeal to my tastes.
That being said I am currently involved in a weekly gaming night regarding the game Danganronpa, which is a lot of fun and I highly recommend it, and I also dabble in the Sims from time to time, like a lot of people (ya girl basic 😂)
From @keepswingin: Favourite book?
Oooh, that’s hard! I have a nostalgic place in my heart for the Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini as one of the first YA fantasy series I read at like...10/11, which were so much fun.
But, as I am now...I tend to stick to the classics, or non-fiction if I’m honest (I’m boring, I know, judge me 😂) so I’d say Pride and Prejudice, as well as the Picture of Dorian Grey, are also up there in terms of favourites. That and biographies on figures like Leonardo Da Vinci are just endlessly fascinating to me. Also just...anything by Shakespeare. Man was an absolute genius.
From @keepswingin: If you don’t have a favourite book, a favourite author & the last book you read?
Well, at the moment my favourite author is a four way tie between Austen, Shakespeare, Wilde and Kazuo Ishiguro.
Speaking of, the last book I read in regards to fiction is actually the Buried Giant by Ishiguro that I’m currently working through. Non-fiction, it is currently...The Art of War by Sun Tzu.
From @fist-it-out: I have a question, a burning question: do you have siblings? How many what gender and are you a middle child? Middle child’s rule (me and keeps are middle kids).
I have one sibling, as told to @keepswingin, they're a sister and they're older. But there's only 2 of us so I'm the baby of the family (at the tender age of 22 😂😅)
Aaaaand that’s it! I didn’t receive any more questions in time for this post going up, so from now on, I will be going back to being as reticent about info as I’ve always been! Any more questions you will have to hold off on, as whilst you are always free to ask them, my ‘open book’ period of time has officially been slammed closed!
Nevertheless, thank you for all the questions, and I hope the answers were interesting enough for everyone! 
And now back to our regularly scheduled posting 😊

Erin and Ania are like holy fuck I can’t even. But for real Neil sees Abby as a mother figure in the book so like is it the same for Ania? Andrew too? Idek I just need to know their relationships with everyone
It’s time I map out their relationships anyways lol so thanks, love!
Let’s start with the lovely Ania 
Dan, Allison, and Ania are roommates. It’s tough after Seth’s death bc Ania has to face her all the time. Erin tells Allison her theory too so Allison is avoiding Ania so :////
Dan is essentially what Matt was to Neil. She sees Ania and her first thought is ‘baby’. She adopts her so fast. Every morning before class, she’ll pinch Ania’s cheeks and kiss her fingers, chef-style Idk man. It’s just something my mom does to me ok. Let me be soft. 
Renee rooms with Erin so Ania isn’t comfortable with her. Anyone that can spend the night in a room with that girl has to be hardcore. 
Allison also gives Ania a lot of shit about her wardrobe. At some point it starts to get to her so when the monsters head to the mall, Erin catches Ania drifting towards the girl’s section on her own. She’s high so she follows her around, prodding her about it. When Ania tells her, there’s this moment where Erin’s drug haze parts for a second. Ania could have sworn that she saw anger flashing in Erin’s eyes for half a second. She shrugs it off until Allison shows up at the dorms with a bruise on her jaw. Erin knows Ania hides her body bc scars and bc she doesn’t like men staring at her. She refuses to let Allison shame Ania into doing something she doesn’t want to. In general, Allison and Ania have a rocky relationship because Erin keeps interfering. After Christmas, the two of them end up getting along a lot better bc they bond while Allison covers Ania’s bruises with makeup. Also after Christmas, Ania and Renee trade dorms so she and Allison aren’t in constant contact. Part of their friction was due to the amount of time they spent together. A lot of things have happened to Allison this year and the fact that she constantly has to see the source of a lot of her problems makes it hard for her to heal.  
I’ve considered Fem!Nicky but I personally prefer Gay/Lesbian solidarity between him and Erin a lot better so yeah (However if you want me to run a few Fem!Nicky hcs, hmu and I’ll do it. She won’t be a part of the fem!verse but it would be fun). He’s exactly the way he is in canon. However, he is constantly trying to set Ania and Erin up and Erin? Doesn’t? Stop? Him? She’s so desperately in love with Ania that if Nicky wingmanning for her is what it takes to win her over, then she’ll take it. She also has a really dirty sense of humor. The jokes he makes fuel her late-night fantasies. 
Aaron is disgusted with Nicky and, more importantly, himself. Ania is incredibly beautiful and he’s incredibly straight. He doesn’t like her bc he’s so gone for Katelyn. That doesn’t make Ania any less pretty. He finds himself staring at her all the time but so does every other fox so he doesn’t feel bad. 
Katelyn thinks Ania is hot. She’s bi but leans heavily towards guys. It takes Aaron a long time to unlearn his homophobia but he manages it because Katelyn is bi and he couldn’t possibly hate anything about her. Once Riko is gone and Ania is safe, she starts to develop feelings. I mean, she always had feelings but now she doesn’t try to suppress them. She lets herself want to be friends with people. Katelyn happens to be at the top of her list. While the twins are with Bee at their sessions, Katelyn and Ania hang out. Sessions are only an hour/hour and a half long so the girls just grab a soda together or go window shopping in Reddin. I hc Katelyn as a genuinely sweet VSCO girl. Let me have this! Ania has a grunge/goth aesthetic because Erin buys her clothes for her but she thinks Katelyn’s clothes are cute too. Erin wants to hate the thousands of scrunchies and anklets she finds strewn across the dorm but they make Ania so happy. Once on a double date, on Bee’s insistence, Katelyn catches sight of a bubblegum pink scrunchie in Erin’s hair. It’s a stark contrast to her all-black outfit but it’s really cute. When Aaron goes to grab their drinks from the barista, Katelyn tells her so making sure to stay well out of Erin’s reach. Erin just grunts and turns to look out the window. The twins don’t blush with their whole face. Instead, their ears turn red. With Erin’s hair pulled up and out of the way, Katelyn has no trouble seeing her burning red ears. It’s progress! 
Ania spends a lot more time out at Evermore as a kid than Neil did. As a result, she was really close to Kevin and Riko. She only knew Jean for like a month before she dipped. I got a request for Fem!Jean so you’ll see Ania’s relationship with Jeanie soon. Kevin sees her as a baby sister. He and Kayleigh were actually at the hospital when Ania was born. There’s a baby photo back at Kayleigh’s old house of 3yr old Kevin carrying a newborn Ania. He’s crying rivers in it. There’s an actual video of it as well. In it, Kay asks him why he’s crying. “She’s sho shmall!” little Kevin sobs. “Can I keep her? Pleashe, mom. I’ll be nice to her and take care of her and I’ll tell her I love her all the time.” You can hear someone laughing in the background. The camera pans across the room to reveal Wymack sitting in a chair by the door, cackling
TANGENT BUT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT WYMACK FOR A MINUTE! So Wymack and Kay are friends with some obvious benefits. He flips his shit when Kevin is born because what if that’s his kid??? Kay is just like, I was with a lot of guys and brushes it off. She’s lying through her teeth. Wymack is the only man she’s ever loved. Tetsuji is salty and I will go into this in another post but I think that Tetsuji really hated Kevin because he was Kay’s son but not his. I absolutely believe that Tetsuji was in love with Kayleigh Day and was pissed when she had a kid. Anyway, Wymack flies out to Ireland a lot to check up on Kay and Kevin because Kay is crazy. How could the inventor of exy not be? It’s literally murder lacrosse. He goes out to make sure Kay isn’t overworking herself and bc Kev has no father figure. Kev grows up knowing Wymack and absolutely adores him. When Kay dies, Wymack wants custody of Kevin. Kay knows who the Moriyamas are and recently she and Tetsuji have been fighting a lot. She’s scared that something is going to happen to her so she writes her will and emphasizes that she wants her son sent to Wymack if she dies. Her fight with Tetsuji comes to a head and the car ‘accident’ happens. It’s not an accident. Tetsuji ordered her killed in a fit of rage. He’s devastated when it actually happens. He loved her and now she’s dead. Well, who’s fault is that, ya dumb bish? He flies out for the funeral and so does Wymack. Tetsu finds the will first and is anger. He has it burned and has Nathan forge a new one where he gets custody of Kev. It breaks Wymack’s heart bc now he thinks Kay didn’t want him around Kev. Kevin is five and he’s crying because his mom is dead and now he can’t live with Wymack. He calls Wymack Dad and Wymack can’t do anything about this. Instead, he just hugs little Kev close and tells him it’ll be okay. Wymack tells Kev that Tetsu has a niece his age. Maybe Kev and Riko can be friends. Maybe they’ll even get married. Kevin says that’s disgusting and Wymack laughs a hollow laugh. Anyway, that’s how Kev gets shipped to Evermore. Tetsu doesn’t allow Wymack near Kev bc he knows the truth. The reason why Wymack always has a sports channel on because he used to keep it on in case Kev ever showed up. He watched every one of Kev’s games and interviews and everything. Wymack doesn’t get to be there to watch Kev grown up so he just watched from a distance. I'm not crying you are. 
Wymack is a father figure to Ania and Erin. He’s there when Ania is born bc he went to visit Kay and Kev who were in Baltimore to meet baby Nathania. Kay carts him out to the hospital to meet her too. Nathan Wesninski was not in the room when his daughter was born. He doesn’t even meet her until she’s six months old. Wymack is the first man Nathania meets and she doesn’t even know. Mary didn’t want to hand Nathania over to Wymack but she and Kay are friends and she knows that he’s her baby daddy. Wymack doesn’t recognize Ania because he only knew her for a month when she was a newborn. Of course he doesn’t recognize her. However, he thinks about her a lot. She’s actually the first baby he’s ever held. He didn’t get to hold Kevin until he was two. Wymack treats Ania the same way he treats Neil but he puts in a bit of extra care bc he knows about Millport incident. 
Abby is definitely as much of a mom figure as she was to Neil. However, after she shows her her scars, Ania gets a lot closer to her. She refuses to tell her things but when Erin gets sent to Easthaven, Ania has a hard time staying at the dorms. She spends all her time at the court bc she has to. She hides in the library bc it’s the one place she wouldn’t see Erin anyways. She crashes at Abby’s a few times because there are times she can’t stand the thought of going back to the dorms without feeling the brush of Erin’s hand on the back of her neck. 
Oh. That’s a thing. Every night after midnight practice n Kev has gone to his room, Ania says goodnight to Erin. Erin will trail her hand across the back of Ania’s neck as she passes in response. It makes Ania shiver because her neck is as much of an erogenous zone as Erin’s is. Erin always watches it out of the corner of her eye bc God it’s the most amazing thing she’s ever seen. It makes her feel. Ania doesn’t really realize???? She’s so dumb. She knows it makes her feel good but she just can’t for the life of her figure out why. 
It’s time I addressed the real psycho lesbian… While Erin’s is a facade, Riko is genuinely psychotic. She’s seven types of crazy. Actually, it skews a little more yandere but I will go into depth about it in the Fem!Jean fic. Rn, I’ll try to keep it short. Riko has her first crush when she’s eight? Nine? She kisses her crush on the cheek when she’s ten and Tetsuji… doesn’t take it well to say the least. The bit about it’s easier to remain straight? It’s the thing Kevin hears Riko say to herself every morning in front of the mirror. Regardless, Riko never gets over that first crush. Riko will never not miss Nathania Wesninski. When she finds out who Ania really is? She loses it. It’s fate, she tells herself. She will have Ania or die trying. Christmas at Evermore is a thing so I mean, I guess she does have Ania :( But she wants Ania to love her. She tells Ania as much and Ania spits in her face. :)
Most of Erin’s relationships are the same except for the Matt and Renee thing I covered earlier. The only other one that changes is Kevin. I know I say this a lot, but she really thought Ania and Kev would be a thing. She says no to Kevin for everything bc she’s petty.  Kevin has always gotten everything that he wanted handed to him on a silver plate. Now he’s taking the one thing she really wants.  If he gets Ania, he can’t have anything else. Again, I’ll cover her relationship with Jean later. 
Thanks again your ask <3
Edit: I'm really tired and have a quiz tomorrow but I forgot to talk about Cleo. I'll make a separate post about her so stay tuned for that!!!

TELL ME ABOUT YOUR OC: COMPANION EDITION
Rules:
Describe your OC as they are described by their companions.
Show us what they look like!
Tag at least 5 (or more) followers and 5 blogs you follow! :)
Enjoy writing!
Thank you so much @dirthara-mama ! This was a nice writing exercise for me! Also every response is pretty long and sorta encompasses what Evelyn did throughout the Inquisition, but I thought it easier to have them sorta react to the choices she made? Idk! And sorry if any sound OOC! This is the first time I’ve posted dialogue from anyone in the DA universe :D (excitingly scary I might add lol!)
Tagging: Oof, idk who’s already done this, and of course no obligation! @ironbullsmissingeye @underthedreadwolfsgaze @felorinbailenshield2 @nemichen and @wardenofmyheart !
I put things under the cut cause it be long
Tumblr media
How the Inner Circle views Evelyn Lavellan!
(Real quick! There’s mentions of a character named Veil, she is my qunari OC that I HC in my canon that she’s part of the inner circle, though I do not do a reaction from her because well yeah) (I also pictured this as the characters telling a close friend about Ev, and not like a strange interviewer or something)
Blackwall: “Despite the lie I lived, she brought me back and made me a proper Grey Warden. That girl gave me a second chance I never asked for, but perhaps the one I needed. I feel stronger for having joined the Inquisition, came out a better man. I’m not the only one with that story here, she has that kind of influence on a person. I’ve been present for every judgement she judged and she had found a way to make the prisoner work for us or sent them off for a second chance. Like that one Avaar that threw goats at our walls, Maker that one was the first person she judged and he walked out a happy man! Exiled to hunt Venatori, then a while later his tribe got their own land and didn’t become bandits! (chuckles) Like I said, that girls leaves you a better person. I wish she’s see how helpful she’s been. Evelyn never feels like she’s done enough. But I’m grateful to her.”
Cassandra: “Evelyn as the Inquisitor has been...interesting to say the least. I know she means well, I just don’t know if it’s really the right choice she’s made at times. I’m thankful that everything worked out the way it did, though. She convinced me to rebuild the Seekers, she...ugh, she helped get Varric’s next book for me. She knew I liked his series, and I’m flattered. Evelyn has told me that she admires the energy I emit and asked how I do it. (chuckles) I asked her how she made the hard choices, and we both responded to our questions as we just improvise. She’s definitely grown on me, I’m sure of it. Evelyn’s been, thankfully, respectful of everyone’s beliefs. Well, except believing that she is the Herald, that time was frustrating for all of us to say the least. But, she doesn’t believe in either the Maker or the Elvhen gods as gods, which surprised me, but I...(sighs) she doesn’t need my judgement. Evelyn’s a good person, a good friend.”
Cole: “Screams that aren’t heard. She keeps screaming but nothing comes out. Hushed whispers from invisible scars haunt her. A weight no one sees. ‘Help me. Please.’ whispered into the pillow. Once petrified by dreams but in wake is more terrifying. She escapes, only coming back to help. Like me. I cannot make her forget, or anyone, but I feel more. She likes knowing someone wants to help. Smiles more now, genuine. Her friends finally heard her screams. A warm embrace fills her, the urge to yell dies down like a starving flame. Safe. More confident, she helps more, wants others to feel the same calm. I’m more human because of her. We like to garden and feel the earth beneath our feet and against our hands. Too busy to think of bad thoughts. It helps.”
Cullen: “The Inquisitor can change her mind too quickly in my opinion. Though, she’s hardened over time. She did help me overcome my lyrium addiction and support me through the process. I could feel she felt nervous around me at times, maybe it was because I’m an ex-Templar and she’s a mage. Which is why it surprised me that she was supportive during my recovery and how many chess matches she partook with me. We’re either matched at wits, or she just lengthens the game to keep me on edge, which, she’s always won. I wish I could’ve gotten to know her better, though, and despite my advice she would always use the Inquisitions forces as a last resort which I hardly agreed with. But, what’s done is done. Might I add, she has a companion dragon? Do you know how nervous that made me? A dragon!”
Dorian: “Evelyn? She’s one of the truest friends I’ve ever had. At first I was wary since she conscripted the mages. But she changed for the better, no doubt under my influence. I question her taste in literature, but I dare say she reads more than I do. How she can find time like that baffles me. She gets extraordinarily excited to fight dragons mind you, despite my protests. I...I think her and Bull consider it to be a date? Hardly romantic, maybe she got the idea from reading Varric’s books (scoffs). Ev told me about the meeting with my father and accompanied me to Redcliffe. She didn’t have to, she could’ve ignored it, she made time to help me personally. Though, she’s helped everyone personally, but my situation wasn’t dealing with a qunari alliance or a certain dwarf’s girlfriend from leaking red lyrium to Corypheus. I...I’m (sigh) grateful to call Evelyn Lavellan a friend. She’s kind and accepting and treats everyone with a kind of equity that is so rare.”
(slight nsfw in this one) The Iron Bull: “On the field, it’s like having a raging lightning storm with a fire tornado working with you. The look of determination and concentration on her face during battle is just so...(grunts). She’s my Kadan, beautiful, strong, intelligent, and I’m proud to be her Vhenan. We’ve shared many moments of all kinds together, helped me in many ways, realize things, helped me become the best I can be. I only hope I’ve helped her in the same way. The Chargers have already considered her a part of us with how much she hangs around, and fuck, if it wasn’t for the Inquisition, I’d ask her to join. Ev’s always fun to be around, she’s got the best jokes, Krem groans ‘cause she’s strengthened my pun game. And damn, does she have a fantastic body, and I get to see it in all its glory almost daily. The scars, her tits, the faces she makes when we go rough, yeah, she’s great. We’re great.”
Josephine: “Madame de Fer and I have to constantly remind her about her presentation to the world. Oh, I remember the stress at the Ball and having to watch over everyone almost like children. It’s also surprised me on how much culture she had not experienced before. Did you know, she’s never been to a full theater performance before? I made sure to change that as quickly as I could. I feel honored to be the first to introduce her to a variety of customs, she did help me annul the contract on my family after all. And on top of that, she respected my choice to doing it my way. She’s been amazing and got to witness me annihilate Cullen at Wicked Grace, and applauded me for doing so! I adore her and love the challenge she gave me during our time in the Inquisition. She came to me a lot for my use in diplomacy which, obviously, is something I respect. Even if...even if it didn’t save her clan, I thought she would hate me for failing, but she didn’t. I still feel awful and I apologize whenever it comes up, but she’s the one reassuring me? Don’t get me wrong, she avoided me for a bit after I told her, well, no one saw her for the rest of the night...but...oh, that got sad, I am thankful for her kindness.”
Leliana: “I won’t lie, at first I thought her compassion and mercy were a weakness, but she taught me otherwise. Ever since the death of her clan, I’ve been trying to get information on any survivors, she doesn’t deserve such a devastating loss, especially when it was during the middle of the Inquisition. She was always keen on listening to my suggestions at the war table and used my forces whenever possible. I think she was interested in adopting a nug from me before she started to raise a dragon! We all kept eyes on Elyana the dragon but somehow things just worked out. (chuckles) She did ask me to train her in becoming a bard, though I think she’s much more interested in what Maryden does than being a spy. Evelyn reminds me so much of the Hero of Ferelden. It took some convincing to get her to realize the severity of the oppression of mages and annulled the conscription. She was quite sheltered from the rest of the world in her clan and didn’t know much about the mage-templar situation. I think that’s why she listened to both Vivienne and I like mentors and (chuckles) parental figures as she’s called Vivienne mom a few times. All in all, Evelyn is precious and great, and I’m glad to have known her.”
Sera: “Oh her? Yeah, she’s fun to be around ‘n stuff. Elf, though, yeah. Not too elfy, so that’s good. Got too into her own glow, though. Rift mage or whatever, that’s too mage-y with that weird magic shite. And it’s a bit unnervin’ innit? I mean, she’s good, helps stick it to nobles in the best friggin’ way. (giggles) And we got to prank her whole lot, she don’t mind my cookies of shite on the roof either. Ev wants to be like people people, I can tell she’s different that way, but Viv keeps makin’ her wear that friggin’ sash and shite. Makes her, Ev, not seem like people, right. I like her and I don’t at the same time, yeah? Isn’t too elfy, good, but she’s too mage-y. Fun ‘n funny but can’t seem to make up her mind for shite. Like, listenin’ to Viv but also pieing nobles in the face. Look, she’s nice an’ all and she’s gettin’ there, but I think she needs a bit more pies to the face, yeah? (giggles) Or Bull to set her right when her arse needs it. (giggles) Get it? Eugh, never mind.”
Solas: “It took time to warm up to the Inquisitor, for she always kept people at a distance. For a time I thought...no. Perhaps she changed her mind. It was for the best anyways, I’m partially grateful that things did not escalate further. I got to train her in the ways of the Rift Mage, and in doing so I learned just how wise her spirit is. How adaptable and intelligent, it made me rethink about the Dalish, but she assured me it wasn’t them that made her that way. She has a tendancy to infuriate me, but I respect her will to listen as to why it does. Evelyn still has much to learn, and it’s been interesting to see her grow from her experiences. I know she abhors the Vallaslin on her face as she did not wish to partake in that tradition. Maybe...hopefully in time, there will be a way to safely remove it. As for the choices she has made, there are a few I have questioned. Thankfully, she took my advice on how to proceed with the Vir Abelasan. Evelyn Lavellan is young and ignorant, but I hold her to a high respect for her willingness to learn, help, restore, and fix her mistakes.”
Varric: “Blossom has been through a ton of shit. Made a lot of choices that she regretted. When Hawke came by, she talked Blossom into rethinking on her choice to deal with the mages and went back on the conscription, letting the mages be free within the Inquisition. I know Hawke’s been keeping in contact with her and they’re friends. Which is great! I taught her how to play Wicked Grace, heh, she’s not very good at it but she plays hard. Well, as in, she bets a lot and usually loses it all but weirdly, she doesn’t mind and is very enjoyable company. Her, Veil, Buttercup, Tiny, and I play cards regularly together. We all exchange stories, chuckle at her and Veil’s bickering and shitty pun wars with Tiny. Best parts of those are when Buttercup groans and usually leaves at that point. I feel bad for Blossom because she’s so nice, merciful, forgiving, and caring an this damn world of events keep forcing her through tough and impossible shit, and it’s broken her a few times. We helped pick up her pieces and continue on. She’s young and inexperienced. Shit, before the Inquisition, she’d never killed a person before. Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful to have a hero in this mess, I just think Andraste or luck or whatever chose unfairly. Or maybe her kind heart is exactly what we all need. That part about her hasn’t changed despite everything and I respect that deeply. I hope she’s able to live a happy life after all this.”
Vivienne: “Oh, Evelyn is a dear, very sweet and respectful. She listened to my teachings very well, especially on etiquette and it surprised me how much she already did out of habit considering she was raised in a Dalish clan on different customs. Though, she did say she didn’t follow Dalish traditions. We share many evenings together and hold conversations while she lets me braid her hair. I found it amusing when I helped her get ready for the Halamshiral Ball and had to teach not only her, but Iron Bull as well, on how to dance. Evelyn was easier to teach because she knows how to dance solo, but never had a partner. I remember she hated the Ball because she had to fight in a dress, with tight braids in her hair, makeup, and various accessories without messing any of it up lest she becomes suspicious or scandalous to the guests. Sadly, she despises The Game, though she’s very good at it. It was glorious. At the Winter Palace she went from being seen like a glorified servant to being on top and holding everyone at the court on strings like puppets along with their respect. Oh, a great sense of fashion and a good eye for decorations, though she dislikes constantly looking and dressing as nobility and I must remind her consistently on why it’s important. I do enjoy her company and I wish we saw more eye to eye on the subject on Circles and mages. At first we did, but as time went on she started agreeing more and more with our dear Spymaster.”
lol all in all, Ev is kind, caring, and smart. She got along with basically everyone, even if they didn’t see eye to eye on everything. Though other than Bull, I think she’s closest with Vivienne, Varric, and Dorian ( and my OC Veil, but I don’t post about her often)

Here’s a Headline
jack & davey, 1808 words
based on this post
(so i was looking for inspiration to write this and i heard it was issac’s { @miserysucculent } birthday??? so since this is his hc i thought hey why not. pls enjoy issac, happy birthday bud. also this turned out a hell of a lot longer than i meant it to be)
It was one of those summer days that made everything seem insignificant. It was hot, hot enough to make Davey flee the constraints of his room. Since he shared with Les, it felt too constricting to sit and listen to another story about cowboys and the wild west. Sarah was already starting her homework for next year, and kept spouting facts about the moon. Davey wrinkled his nose thinking about the pile of homework that sat on his desk, waiting to be started. Choosing to neglect his duties, Davey chose to take a walk down to the farmer’s market for his mother. It was just as stifling outside, but a thin breeze blew between all the people that crowded the sidewalk. He pushed his way through the crowd, realizing that this was not the greatest choice he could’ve made, relieved to see the big signs advertising fresh fruit and baked goods.
He grabbed a basket and checked his phone for the list again. Apples, broccoli, chicken stock, and the daily paper. As much as Sarah and Davey had tried to convince their father that all of the news was online, and buying a newspaper was unnecessarily killing trees, Mayer insisted on having the real thing, right there. Davey grabbed everything and headed over to the small newspaper stand, carrying all the big names. A boy was leaning against the post, reading the New York Times, with a bloody and fascinating title. Davey went to pick one up, and the boy lowered the paper as he watched Davey grab it. He felt the the boy’s eyes rake across his body, and ignored him as he opened to the Arts & Leisure section. “Well extra, extra.” He heard, the boy’s Manhattan accent thick. “I’m gay and you’re cute.” Davey smiled slightly, folding the paper.
“Extra, extra. Yeah I’m cute, duh.” Davey walked on past the boy to pay for his items. Maybe the trip wasn’t useless after all.

“I was in the middle of the Battle of Hogwarts!! Molly Weasley was about to say bitch! You can’t just take me away from that!” Sarah rolled her eyes as she tugged on his arm, sending his whole body out of the door frame. Davey huffed, picking himself up off the floor. Sarah had demanded that he come out of his room and ‘socialize,’ even though there was no one to talk to in the middle of July. Her girlfriend Kath was out of town, Davey’s friends Mush and Skittery would rather suck face then talk face-to-face, and everyone else made Davey feel like he was losing braincells the more they opened their mouths. But Davey knew that Sarah couldn’t stay in the house for too long, or else she would go crazy. So he reluctantly followed her out the door, complaining the whole way.
“Where are we even going?” He asked, still annoyed.
“Anywhere the winds blows us!” She sighed, twirling in the wind. Sarah’s soft pink skirt puffed in the wind, her hair streaking around her. Davey gritted his teeth, plodding along behind her. They kept walking until they ended up at the farmer’s market, in front of the lemonade stand. Sarah pulled a five out of her pocket and paid the man for two drinks that looked pink and fizzy, but tasted surprisingly good. They walked around for a while when Sarah saw the newspaper stand.
Pulling Davey’s arm in a direction he did not want to go for the second time that day, Sarah led him over and picked up a Tribune. Davey read the title until a voice jarred him into looking up. “Extra, extra. Does cute boy have a band-aid?” Sarah opened her mouth, confused, but Davey raised his hand to silence her.
“Why?” He said, smiling.
“‘Cause I think I scraped my knee falling for you.” The boy winked at him, and Sarah’s mouth fell open.
Davey grabbed Sarah’s arm and dragged her away from the stand. “Well, good luck with that!” He called over his shoulder.
“Care to explain what the hell just happened?” Sarah asked, disbelief etched in her words. Davey smiled, a dreamy look in his eye.
“It was the wind.”

Mayer had forgotten to get his paper coming home from work. “Damn!” He said, sitting on the couch, good-naturedly. Esther swat at him with the packet of papers she was filling out.
“Not in front of Les, Mayer.” Les grinned at him from the other couch, a ring of blue encircling his mouth from the popsicle he had earlier. Davey giggled, and returned to the english homework that was sitting on his lap.
“Any of my lovely children want to go and get one?” Mayer jokingly asked.
“Me!” Davey said, shooting up, dropping all of his books and papers and sending them to the floor. There was an embarrassing silence as everyone’s eyes watched a slow piece of notebook paper drift to the floor. Esther raised an eyebrow, clearly confused.
“I- I’m just passionate about world politics!” He said, nodding his head. Sarah laughed, getting up from the kitchen table.
“And that newsboy’s ass.” She said, leaving the room before her mother could lecture her. Esther sighed and shook her head, returning to the paperwork she was doing. Davey picked up his papers, putting them on the couch.
He walked quickly out the door before anyone could question him. “I’ll get it!” He called, shutting the door. Davey looked at the sidewalk, and walked down the stairs in the direction of the farmer’s market. He got there in record time, slightly out of breath. He saw the boy and smiled to himself. Sarah wasn’t wrong. He has a fantastic ass. As he picked up a Post, the boy laughed.
“Extra, extra. You can stare at this ass all day long.” Davey’s eyes widened in horror as realized what he’d said out loud. He stuttered for a second before dropping the paper and walking away as fast as he could.
Mayer was confused and slightly angry when Davey returned with nothing but red cheeks and a story to tell Sarah.

“Please take Les out of my hands. This report is due tomorrow, and I’ve barely started. Please oh please?” Davey stared at his mom, not wanting to get up from the spot on his couch. He had finally found a comfortable position to read in, and he knew how rare it was to find one. Esther sighed, running her fingers through her hair. “I’ll give you twenty bucks to go get ice cream. Please?”
Davey reluctantly peeled himself off the couch and set his book down. She smiled tiredly, and he smiled back. He walked down the hallway and reached his mom’s office, where Les was creating necklaces out of paper clips and singing musical theatre songs at the top of his lungs. “AIN’T IT A FINE LIFE, CARRYIN’ T-”
“Les!” The younger brother stopped, looking at Davey like he had ruined a Moment. “Let’s go get ice cream, yeah?” Les’s eyes lit up as he shot to his feet, and Davey doubted the idea of giving him sugar for a second. “Get some shoes on and we’ll go.” As Les left the room, Davey grabbed his arm. “And no Newsies on the way there, please. It’s so overrated.”
Les’s face look offended, and he pushed Davey out of the way. “You’re overrated!” He yelled, leaving Davey to roll his eyes.
The summer heat was too much for Davey, not to mention the fact that it did nothing to subdude Les’s energy. By the time they both had ice cream, Les was practically bouncing off the walls. He had learned to tune Les out, so he was walking along and being pulled of his sugar haze every once and while to stop Les from breaking something or talking to a stranger. Because of this, he didn’t notice where they were going until they were there, in front of the newsstand.
“Oh- Les- Let’s go… look… at that thing over there!” Les pulled his arm out of Davey’s grasp, picking up a random paper.
“Let’s get dad his paper now!” Davey sighed and picked up a paper, trying to cover his face with it. The boy cocked an eyebrow, amused at Davey’s lame attempt at hiding. He was a six foot tall beanpole. There was no hiding Davey Jacobs.
“Extra, extra. Cute boy owes me his number.” Before Davey could say anything, Les answered curiously.
“Why?” He asked, and Davey almost died of embarrassment. Jack laughed and leaned over to match Les’s height.
“Because I dropped mine when I first saw him.” Davey brows furrowed for a second. That one didn’t even make sense? At least he’s trying.
This moment of confusion, unfortunately, gave Les the opportunity to talk. “You lost yours? Oh no! I can give you Davey’s, don’t worry. It’s (212) 34-” Davey clapped his hand over Les’s mouth and began to drag him away. Les fought for a moment before shrugging and giving up, shimmying out of his embrace and skipping ahead. Davey turned around and shot a sheepish smile at Jack, who grinned right back.

It had been a bad day. Everyone was fed up with each other, Sarah had yelled at him twice, Les broke one of his favorite pens, and Esther had gotten so mad at him that she just pointed at the door and yelled ‘Go!’
So Davey went. He walked in no particular direction, just angry and trying to blow off some steam. As he walked down the pavement, he carefully avoided any cracks and counted his steps. 1, 2, 3, 4…
497. Four hundred and ninety-seven steps until he was in front of the farmer’s market, where his subconscious had led him, and he knew the exact reason why. He hadn’t been back since the phone number incident with Les, and he was dying to see the boy again. He had made small appearances in Davey’s dreams often, and Davey couldn’t seem to get his face out of his head. So Davey ever-so-casually walked up to the newspaper stand and grabbed a Times. He saw the boy look at him for a long moment. Davey was itching to know what line the boy would drop today when the boy cleared his throat. He walked next to Davey and bumped shoulders with him, pointed at the headline on the Times. “Extra, extra. Cute guy agrees to dinner with charming man.” Davey laughed for the first time, a full, broad sound that made the boy’s face light up.
“Extra, extra. They’ll kiss after persistent guy walks cute one to his door.” Davey leaned over and pecked his cheek, leaving the boy grinning as big as could be. As he walked away, the boy called after him.
“I’m Jack!” He said.
“Davey!” He called over his shoulder.
