taste of uncertainty 
Tumblr media
Starring: Hades | Reader | Hermes is mentioned | Persephone is mentioned | Kronos is mentioned 
Pairing: Hades x Reader
Type: Angst | Pining 
Tumblr media
The skies in Helheim are always dark. The people in the underworld live in constant darkness. It is the Underworld after all: the domain demons call their home; the domain where all those who committed crimes against their brothers and sisters are sent to after paying the price in the mortal realm. Helheim is not meant to be beautiful. It is meant to be practical. The judging of straying souls; a mechanical process. The steps are easy to remember for everyone. It is the same everyday after all. As it was; As it will remain. A duty he had to watch over as the ruler of Helheim.
Hermes brings in the souls. Charon ferries them on the stagnant river. The souls walk through the gates, wait for their turn as the queue slowly moves forward with each passing judgement. It is the same process everyday. Hades is used to this system. He grew more and more jaded with the judging of each passing soul. He saw everything. From the most noble humans to the most despicable ones. Helheim is indeed a depressing domain. The most noble humans end in Elysium, the ones with the most mundane deeds end in the Asphodel Meadows, and the most despicable ones in Tartarus. A fair judgement.
It is incredible really how humans’ lives are much more alike than they would like to accept. No two souls are similar. But the experiences they go through sure do shape what kind individuals they turn into. In some of them, he sees Zeus…well with less opportunities to go on a rampage that would end civilisations, but the patterns are there. A puff of laughter escaped the god of the underworld. If Poseidon could read his thoughts, the eldest knew he would get scolded. He can basically hear his sermon, “Humans and us have nothing alike.” And yet…
Purple eyes glance briefly at his left side. The stubborn woman who accidentally stumbled into Helheim while still alive stood there, by his throne, notebook in hand; taking note of the mortal’s life’s achievements and milestones. This task used to be that of Minos. However, after her insistence of repaying Hades for his kindness as a host, the lord of the Underworld passed this task to her. He found her company much more pleasant than that of the former king of Crete. Her sense of humour makes his long days in the courtroom more tolerable.
(Name) is nothing more than a mortal. Her soul is like many others he judged before. When her time comes, she will roam the Asphodel Meadows, all ties tying her to her current life forever severed with a sip of the water coursing through the River Lethe. She will forget everything. Her life, her parents, him. Everything connecting her to her mortal life will disappear from memory. She will be reduced to another soul, walking around the fields, purpose and ambition stolen away. As it always had been; As it should remain. Her eyes will not light up with recognition when she notices him across the meadows. He will be nothing but a stranger.
His heart squeezed in his chest. ‘Our time together…memories of you sitting there in the Elysium fields, Cerberus’ heads resting on your lap, listening to a tune I composed during one of my sleepless nights, all gone because of a ridiculous system.’ His grip on his bident tightens. This is a dangerous thought process. This…attachment to this mortal…
When did he get attached to her? He can't quite pinpoint when. And yet, this feeling spread in his chest at the mere thought of losing her…it was familiar. A familiar ache that he felt only once in his life, aeons ago, when a certain spring goddess stumbled into Helheim in a similar fashion as (name). A goddess and a mortal woman. One has ichor running in their veins; the other, a dark red liquid that when spilled carelessly could end a lifetime. They should have nothing in common. A mortal woman should never be praised alongside a goddess. It is blasphemy. And yet…in Hades’ eyes, the genuine smiles that grace their faces were similar. They both radiated warmth. It was as if they brought some rays of the sun with them before coming down to Helheim and decided to share it with him.
Gods are rarely loved. They felt the desire to possess anything that accidentally gain their fancy. But real love, the selfless, purest one of them, is a foreign concept. Perhaps, because of their status as immortals, they know they would never really lose their loved ones to time. They take each other for granted. They fall hard and fast, but once the euphoria disappears, nothing ties them to that figure of desire anymore. In the rare cases of exception, the union was rarely easy. Hades witnessed how Psyche was played and tested until Aphrodite relented to spare the young girl.
Hades himself, remembered feeling something akin to love once. But even now, he wasn’t entirely certain it was actually love and not just a mere fleeting affection for a naive goddess. That spring deity will always be the base of his ‘what if’ daydreams. A door they both opened but that he could never bring himself to close. How can he let go of something that showed so much potential but that never came to be because of his unbudging convictions? Every night, he wonders what he could have done differently. What compromises should he have made? How could he have made this relationship work? All of these probabilities remained just that. A probability and possibility amongst one of many others.
And as Hades taps his bident three times on the sparkling tiled floors of the courtroom, his judgement for the soul before him finalised, he wonders if (name) will follow the steps of the spring goddess. Will he be accompanying her to the gates, watching as Cerberus’ heads and tail dropped as yet another being that brought some comfort in their long lives? The words he was never able to say to that spring goddess on the top of his tongue, but with a different future in mind; a different woman by his side. A woman he fears doesn’t want to stay after she finds what she is searching for during her stay with him. A woman who realises that Helheim when compared to Mt. Olympus is grim and devoid of warmth.
‘Will you too leave me craving for the potential of what we could have been if you had decided to stay?’
“Your soul shall reside in the Asphodel Meadows.”
A woman he will see one day, when the Fates have decided it was time for her to go, stands there in the middle of the throne room, waiting to be told to go to the Asphodel Meadows, to drink her memories away. Their days and nights in Helheim spent discussing about their respective pasts and family, the secrets they spilled over the wine they drank, the days she spent with the imposing Cerberus—reduced to a yapping and whiny puppy in her presence— chasing after her in the Elysium fields, the nights he spent teaching her how to play the piano and flute when they couldn’t sleep. All these moments sailing away into nothingness.
‘Or will I be visiting you in the Asphodel Meadows, wishing to go back to the moment we first met. Would I let you stay by my side knowing what I know now, or would I force you to leave to spare me this second disappointment?’
He can hear it now. His father is laughing from Tartarus, shaking the grounds he walks on.
“You brats will never find happiness.”
The curse of a spiteful father.

I've been thinking about how the doors of death being open wasn't used enough. Also how if Leos mom ended up in the fields of Asphodel.
Them walking back to the ship after meeting Narcissis
------
"Mom?" He asked. She looked at him but everything about her was grey. She didn't react to him at all. He felt immediate tears in his eyes and smiled. He ran over hugging her. She just stood in shock.
"Can I help you?" She asked in a colder voice then he remembered. Not rude. Just slow and confused. He pulled back and looked her in the eyes.
"Mom, it's me." Just in case she didn't recognize him before.
"Mom?" She asked and he stared in horror as he slowly realized she didn't remember him. She was in Asphodel. He suddenly felt sick. And realized those weren't the same eyes his mother stared at him with. These were just... full of confusion. He backed away biting his lip to hold back his tears.
"Oh such a tragedy." He heard and flinched. He brought out his hammer and looked around but found no one there.
"How much you dreamed of this moment." He recognized the voice and his grief turned into anger.
"What do you want, Gaea?" He spat. "Ooo feisty. Saying my name? You're getting braver."
"What. Do you want?"
"You know exactly what I want, Leo." She stated and he did. She wanted to break him. She wanted to break him so she could use him again. Then as he looked around he realized something. Hazel. "You both do."
"Hazel! Hazel?!" He yelled in a panic. He heard muffled yells coming from far away and ran to the sound. He found her tied to a tree with thick vines and took out giant pliers. Before he could cut her free, a vine wrapped itself around his wrist.
"Look at you. Trying so hard to be a hero." She teased. He cut it off and continued trying to help Hazel. He cut off the ones tying her hands together before more vines grabbed onto him. She started getting herself free.
"For what? Maybe for love? Because that's the only way you'll get it?" She asked as he cut off more vines. One smacked the pliers away.
"Maybe to make up for killing your mother who doesn't even remember you?" He stopped for a second before shaking his head. One wrapped around his throat.
"Maybe-" A yell rippled through the air and everything stopped. Hazel ran over to help him out of the tangled mess. They grabbed the piece of metal and ran. She was getting tired and grabbed her hand.
"I can't hold her back much longer!"
"Get on my back!"
"Are you sure?!"
"Yeah, I can handle it!" So she jumped onto his back and she was a little heavier than expected but not too bad. He ran them all the way to the ship. He ran to the helm and getting it in the air.
"You can let go now. We're in the air. We're safe." She sighed in relief and relaxed climbing off his back. He put it on auto pilot and sat next to her letting her rest her head on his shoulder.
"Sorry for... getting distracted."
"Hey, I get it. She looks a lot like you." Leo smiled at that. Someone coughed loudly and they looked up. Everyone surrounded them in confusion/concern. This was going to be fun to explain.

“An even closer mind–body relationship is forged from Hermes’ invention of prosthetic ‘feet’. When Hermes steals Apollo’s cattle, he tries to conceal his guilt by fashioning sandals from foliage that are ‘beyond description or imagination’ At the sands of the seashore he immediately plaited with wickerwork sandals beyond description or imagination, marvellous works, combining tamarisk and myrtle shoots. Then, binding together their fresh growth in an armful, he tied the light sandals securely under his feet, including their foliage, which the glorious slayer of Argus carried away from Pieria in preparing for his travel. Tying together an armful of their fresh growth, he bound the light sandals securely on his feet, foliage and all, which the glorious Argus-slayer had plucked from Pieria as he prepared his journeying, improvising as one does when hastening on a long journey. (79–86, translation adapted from West 2003) As with the fire-sticks, where Hermes adapted the wood with a blade, here too the god deploys an existing technique, weaving, to fashion the sticks into footwear that he can ‘securely’ (ἀβλαβέως) attach to his feet. While αὐτοτροπήσας conveys the impression of improvisation, Hermes is nonetheless intentional in his work, since he not only gathered the twigs in advance (ἔσπασε Πιερίηθεν ὁδοιπορίην ἀλεείνων) but also selected specifically those he could combine and plait. The sandals are ‘marvellous works’ not only because of the unconventional material with which Hermes has crafted them, but because of their efficacy in disguising his tracks. But unlike Prometheus’ trick with the fat and the fennel, the sandals themselves are tangential to Hermes’ plan: in fact, he ultimately throws them into the river Alpheios (139).
Instead, it is the tracks they leave behind that form the linchpin of Hermes’ ruse, since these prints belie the materials he improvised with to effect their construction. Not only, then, can Hermes anticipate Apollo’s consternation at the sight of the tracks, but he reveals himself to know exactly how the components of his sandals will interact with the earth to leave behind baffling marks. The ‘beyond description or imagination’ and ‘marvellous’ aspect of the sandals attributed to them during their construction finds confirmation in Apollo’s reaction to their tracks: ὦ πόποι, ἦ μέγα θαῦμα τόδ᾿ ὀφθαλμοῖσιν ὁρῶμαι· ἴχνια μὲν τάδε γ᾿ ἐστὶ βοῶν ὀρθοκραιράων, ἀλλὰ πάλιν τέτραπται ἐς ἀσφοδελὸν λειμῶνα· βήματα δ᾿ οὔτ᾿ ἀνδρὸς τάδε γίνεται οὔτε γυναικός οὔτε λύκων πολιῶν οὔτ᾿ ἄρκτων οὔτε λεόντων οὔτέ τι κενταύρου λασιαύχενος ἔλπομαι εἶναι, ὅς τις τοῖα πέλωρα βιβᾶι ποσὶ καρπαλίμοισιν. αἰνὰ μὲν ἔνθεν ὁδοῖο, τὰ δ᾿ αἰνότερ᾿ ἔνθεν ὁδοῖο. Oh wow, this is truly a wondrous marvel that I’m looking at. These are certainly the tracks of straight-horned cows, but then again, they are facing backwards towards the asphodel meadow. And these, on the other hand, are footprints of neither man nor woman, nor of grey wolves or bears or lions, nor of a shaggy-necked centaur do I expect that they are, whoever makes such monstrous strides with their swift feet. Bizarre stuff on one side of the road, and weirder still on the other! (219–26) The wondrous character of the sandals thus literally leaves its mark in the form of prints that are as strange as the shoes themselves. They comprise a ‘wondrous marvel’ (μέγα θαῦμα) that leads Apollo to assume that the maker of the prints must be some fantastical being due to their size and inscrutable shape. Hermes thus (temporarily) conceals his identity in the form of what is ‘bizarre’ and new (αἰνά). As Apollo tells it later, he relates that the prints looked as though Hermes was not using his feet, but ‘walking on slender oak trunks’: ‘He had some other device and was rubbing such monstrous tracks as if someone were walking on slender oak trunks’ (ἀλλ’  ἄλλην τινὰ μῆτιν ἔχων διέτριβε κέλευθα / τοῖα πέλωρ’ ὡς εἴ τις ἀραιῇσι δρυσὶ βαίνοι, 348–9). In this formulation, Apollo makes explicit the material character of Hermes’ mētis by equating Hermes’ prints with his mētis.”

The Watcher || Xavier Thorpe || Part 6
Tumblr media
original work: https://www.wattpad.com/story/328018801-the-watcher-xavier-thorpe
When she woke up, Chloe put on a light purple button up and pulled on a tight black spaghetti strap dress over top. She stepped into her black combat boots and sighed, tying her hair up into a ponytail. Only two parts of her plan had been finished: taking control of her powers and breaking up Xavier and Bianca, even though she was not the one who broke them up. She still had to observe the boy and make him fall in love with her. Her plan was taking too long, her father would be disappointed with her if she didn't finish before mid-semester.
She was walking towards her door heading to her French class, she was skipping classes in favor of finishing her mission and sadly Xavier wasn't taking French. She suddenly had an idea and paused, "I can just combine the two parts! What was that called?"
She placed her hand on the door nob and opened the door, still talking to herself, "Lust told me it was something mortals 'do', or maybe it was 'have'?"
She kept talking to herself, a habit she picked up in Hell, as she walked through the hallway, kids moved out of the way when they saw her. Once she reached her classroom, she had given herself a headache trying to remember what the deadly sin had told her. She rubbed her head as she sat down in the closest desk to the door.
A short boy came in and sat down next to her. She was confused because there must have been rumors going around due to her unrestrained actions the day before; why would someone want to be close to someone who would kill them with a miniscule movement?
"Why are you sitting there?" She asked through her pounding headache.
"Oh, were you saving it for a friend?" the boy asked, showing a small rod of metal in front of his teeth when he talked, evidence of the retainer he wore.
"No, I don't have 'friends'." She spoke.
Her eyes widened, friends, that was what Lust had told her about, a friends to lovers trope and they date and fall in love! Chloe's mouth twitched into small smile, her headache fading with satisfaction.
"Well, I can be your friend." The boy offered.
"No! Why would I want to become lovers with you?"
The boy pushed his glasses farther up on his nose bridge and stifled a chuckle, "You don't have to date your friends. Where did you hear that?"
Chloe turned to him confident but confused, "Lust told me. Now explain."
"Well, it's possible for you to go from friends to lovers if you like your friend in that way but other than that, your friends will stay your friends. There is no requirement."
"Well, if you insist, then yes, you can be my friend."
"Awesome. My name is Eugene Ottinger and I already know your name."
She looked at him with a questioning gaze, forgetting that there were rumors about her floating around the school, but, a brunette woman, holding a pile of binders in her arms, walked in before she could say anything.
"Bonjour, classe." She spoke.
"Bonjour, Madame." The students responded.
"I have an announcement today, so everyone has to listen. "
Chloe's father had told her to listen when other people speak because it is a sign of respect and you can always tell if someone is lying based on the way they speak, verbal and non-verbal. Remembering this, Chloe sat up straight and listened to the teacher.
"There have been some bear attacks recently in the woods, so all of the students are forbidden from going into the woods until further notice. Please direct any of your questions to Principle Weems."
Eugene whined as the woman started her lesson.
"What is it?" Chloe whispered to her new friend.
Eugene explained, "I can't go bug-hunting in the forest anymore."
"Oh. I'm afraid I can't do anything to help you. Bugs are not in my area of expertise."
Actually, the only animals that Chloe had seen were souls in Asphodel Meadows¹. She wasn't able to see a live animal when she went running because most living animals and insects could detect her aura and would run the opposite way once they sensed her.
"It's okay. It's not your fault." Eugene sighed and turned to listen to the teacher go on about French grammar.
1) The Asphodel Meadows is a section of the ancient Greek underworld where ordinary souls are sent to live after death.
When the class ended, Eugene invited her to visit his club, a bee keeping club called the Nevermore Hummers. On the way, Chloe informed him that the bees would most likely fly away from her because of all the time she spent in Hell. He just waved it off and told her that she would always be welcome at 'the hive' and she wouldn't need a bee-keeper suit if the bees wouldn't come near her.
They arrived at a shed with a bee on the front and Eugene started to speak.
"Bees are nature's perfect community. All working together to achieve a common goal. And It's one of the few ecosystems in which females dominate. From the queen bees to her workers, there's no patriarchy in the hive!" He said enthusiastically.
"Bees are quite like the outcasts, a queen and her people, together protecting each other from a common enemy." Chloe said as her face remained relaxed.
"A queen?," Eugene asked, "who?"
Chloe looked at him, "Me, I am the queen of outcasts, the one who will lead my father's kin to safety."
"Wow, that sounds stressful."
"In due time."
Chloe listened to Eugene talk about the wonders of bees and how 'awesome' they are. All while Eugene was fascinated watching the bees fly around Chloe, never coming close to her.

I've heard of Vishnu before, anything you'd like to share regarding them? (Relating it to spn or not)
okay so:
in hinduism, life is divided into three main parts that go to three main deities. creation is Brahma's domain, destruction is Shiva's domain, and living is Vishnu's domain.
because of this, he is often the god who is seen as the strongest or more important by many. there are a plethora of stories that involve him being dispatched to deal with a problem that no one else can
Vishnu has 10 avatars or incarnations. they somewhat follow the cycle of evolution, with the first being a fish, then moving onto a turtle, boar, half-man half-lion, and ending at kalki, who will end the world and remove evil. most depictions of kalki portray him as a man on a white horse, but there are a few that depict him as a young girl.
the two most widely worshipped incarnations of Vishnu are Rama and Krishna. Rama is meant to be the most moral man possible, while Krishna is more human and mischevious. Rama has the epic of the Ramayama dedicated to him, while Krishna features heavily in the other great Hindu epic, the Mahabharata.
one other interesting thing about Vishnu is that he's one of many hindu gods and figures that can be read as trans or queer. in one myth, lord shiva gives a demon a boon: that if the demon places his hand on a person's head, that person will die. that demon immediately stretches out his hand towards shiva, asking if he can test out his new ability. this ignites a chase that has shiva running throughout the realms, until he is finally able to ask Vishnu for help.
Shiva leads the demon to a forest with a temple where Vishnu, described as a beautiful dancer named Mohini, is waiting. Mohini leads the demon through a series of dance steps that end with him putting his hand on his own head, killing him.
10/10 very cool god. I'm wearing a Krishna pendant right now.

Anyway I miss blaseball so much I made my own little folk song-varitation enjoy (or don’t, just b polite about it pls <3)
Lyrics under the cut bc I sure am not articuating <3
Hell’s Blazing in the summertime Freezing in the fall If I can’t be up there with you I guess I will play ball
Many stripes never look back Many stripes say YES Many stripes never look back Never look back unless…
I wish I had my pitcher back Living in the hole ‘Cuz every crow that flies along It hurts me in my soul
Many stripes never look back Many stripes say YES Many stripes never look back Never look back unless…
I wish that I would never look back At my old teammates I miss them so when they’re not here Last saw them at the gates
Many stripes never look back Many stripes say YES Many stripes never look back Never look back unless…
Some come here for all their life Some they come and go Some have been here all their life In the pitch below
Many stripes never look back Many stripes say YES Many stripes never look back Never look back unless…
Every night out on the field We play under the ground With rains of blood and soot and dirt Come face us at the mound
Many stripes never look back Many stripes say YES Many stripes never look back Never look back unless…
Many stripes my little love Many stripes I know Many stripes my little love In Hades down below
Many stripes never look back Many stripes say YES Many stripes never look back Never look back unless…

@parasympathic​
It was a Tuesday.
Nearly three weeks had passed since the Spring Equinox but no more than twenty-four hours had passed since Emil last reminded Montgomery that pagan holidays were clearly cursed. A year’s worth of them spent together he pointed out, and not a single one had gone according to plan. Both the Summer and Winter Solstice had been ruined by Hugo’s untimely arrival, while the Fall and Spring Equinox had likewise been spoiled with the long and messy process of bringing about his demise. The only thing that had salvaged these several botched festivals was their time together on the bayou. An accidental tradition that had brought them back to the swamp once a season to interrogate, escape, and celebrate in turn. So when Montgomery was no longer bedridden and their schedules allowed, he insisted they indulge in the one tradition that wasn’t doomed to fail.
While Emil was certain the doctor exaggerated his state of injury just as an excuse to abuse his newly returned Gift and take every breakfast in bed with him, it was their work that delayed the trip more than anything else. The usual flurry of fallout and follow-up from Asphodel’s latest disaster, one that required Endine’s Head Significant and Oleander’s most talked about Affiliate to once again sit through an exhaustive number of meetings. This time, however, Emil was pleasantly surprised to find himself running more than a few of these. As it turned out, the deterioration of Null and Gifted relationships over the last year was suddenly a topic of great interest, and Charlie was quick to give credit to the man he employed to keep careful track of it. House Valerian even called him in for a special consolation, needing to find tactful way to re-hire the Affiliates they had put on extended leave. It was a strange new expansion of his role, one he was still feeling out, but for now it was simply a job that needed to be done and he wouldn’t deny he was the one best-equipped to do it.
Montgomery, on the other hand, was left to weigh in on equally complicated questions, like what was to be done with the twice-escaped Institute prisoners and the man who’d imprisoned them in the first place. Neither could be answered immediately or easily, but Emil thought they were on the right track when Hugo was now the one behind bars and his previous Gifted captives were firmly on the other side of them. The news even agreed with them, headlines that finally painted MPower in the same guilty colors as the Institute, Hugo inextricably tying the two organizations together while Mortensen desperately tried to sever himself from his nephew and his company’s many sins. Sins that the steadily spilled out in the media circuit to satisfy Asphodel's penchant for good gossip and the House lawyers need for good evidence.
It was, all in all, not a bad three weeks. Just busy and long and lacking in Tuesdays. But now, it was Tuesday, so now, they were going to the bayou.
Dress nostalgic, Emil said when Montgomery asked. No clues about boat rides or treasure hunts, just a hint in a familiar jacket he tugged on. The same one he had worn the first time they went to the bayou, paired with a familiar outfit underneath. Suspenders Monty had complimented on their date out into the city paired with the ring he’d given him there and gold winged cuff links. A collage of memories he hand-picked for the occasion along with a pack of cigarettes he tucked away in his jacket pocket for later.
They arrived just before dusk, a golden wash of light reflecting off the water that could almost make the bayou look romantic. The smell of swamp, of course, was quick to contradict the feeling, but the distant sound of starting bonfires had the promise of sweeter scents and memories to come. Nostalgia, after all, was set to be the star of this Tuesday, a point Emil made clear as soon as he got out of the car, a mischievous grin spreading across his features. “So,” he said, already entirely too pleased with himself, “I’d like to propose a new deal.”

hi love for your event may i ask for asphodel 🖤🖤 suna, iwaizumi, and ushijima and your stuffed animals/plushies (wherever this takes your big brain bb - them buying one for you, how they treat them, you/them cuddling w it - anything!!) ty and ily 😚😚
Tumblr media
★ custodian’s scribbles: i love this bc i have 1 (one) teddy bear i can’t sleep without and an alarming amount of other stuffed toys so i can resonate with this idea
Tumblr media
fear not the passage in the afterlife—the Queen, Persephone, is kind...

Ω ASPHODEL — Eurydice stirs in her pot, humming...
Tumblr media
The custodian’s thoughts on scroll #71, “All about stuffed animals with Suna, Iwaizumi, Ushijima”
Tumblr media
SUNA RINTARŌ
he has a younger sister and his mother insists on buying her stuff all the time so he developed quite the eye for stuffed animals
the usual choice would be a teddy bear, right? classic, cute, very fluffy. even add a ridiculous red heart with a white “i love you” etched on it
wrong. not with suna rintarō, at least
“teddy bears are overrated”
this menace will buy you anything he thinks looks funny—octopi, turtles, a gingerbread man, a squid, a Pompompurin half your size (this was limited edition and honestly? when you don’t cuddle it he uses it as a pillow for his cervical spine, his posture is as terrible as ever), vegetables
but the one you treasure the most is the fox plushie he won for you, when you were second years, at a summer festival
whenever you can’t see him, he’ll baby talk to it. brings him a little peace knowing this one stuffed toy, so insignificant in the grand scheme of things, reminds you of him
USHIJIMA WAKATOSHI
will buy you anything you want. literally anything. spoils the fuck out of you because you’re so cute when you hug your new Cinnamoroll plushie
which, in turn, lands him some very nice cuddles afterwards
treats your plushies with utmost care—one time, he spilled his coffee on one of your teddy bears because he was half-asleep and apologized so much when he realized. promised to wash it or buy you a new one
kiss his nose and reassure him that everything’s alright, he really felt bad :(
while he very much prefers to hold you pressed to his chest, your head resting over his beating heart, he isn’t opposed to holding you from behind while you hug your favorite plushie. you’ll end up curled up on top of him with your arms wrapped around his neck anyway
IWAIZUMI HAJIME
him. hajime. dream man. i love him so much i’d give him anything he wanted
um chile so anyways—
while he loves to spoil you, he’s the one who says no from time to time. “you have enough of those at home”, “i always trip over them because they’re scattered all over the place”, “this is the exact same one i bought you last week” and the list of reasons why he won’t go home with another stuffed toy can go on forever
he’ll indulge you, sure—after all, he was oikawa’s support teddy bear for years on end and he himself couldn’t sleep until he was 8 without his Godzilla plushie—but when he says no, then it’s no. he doesn’t relent
however will treat your plushies like he treats you
don’t tell anyone, but his old Godzilla plushie stands on a shelf next to your favorite stuffed toy, their little fabric hand joined, and whenever he sees that, he tears up a little
